Jonynas sees benefit to police review board, promoting Chester
Cynthia Prairie | Feb 20, 2013 | Comments 0
By Cynthia Prairie
Arne Jonynas calls on his experience in both public and private sectors to inform his views on town government and his duties on the Select Board. Jonynas is seeking a third one-year term.
Arne Jonynas
In a recent interview, Jonynas, who owns Chester Plumbing, recalls working at the Town of Windsor Windham Highway Department. "I was second in command. But," he begins to laugh, "there were only two people" working there. Even so, that work, he says, helps him to understand the "grueling" work of Chester's own Highway Department, which he calls "excellent."
This former patrolman, who served 10 years with the New Haven, CT, Police Department, would like to begin a discussion on whether the Chester department needs a fifth full-time officer, as has been proposed. He says he's spoken with quite a number of Chester residents who do not "think we need another one." But before a decision is made, "I'd like to … see the numbers, the statistics, gather a lot of information before we hire another one." To that end, the town has hired someone to do an outside review.
Also, Jonynas suggests setting up a citizens group to look into any public complaints about the Police Department. "It's hard for the police to police themselves," he says. "You should be able to … feel comfortable to complain." He believes "it would help the Police Department as well to have a process to address issues."
In the private sector, Jonynas and his wife Sharon moved to Chester 28 years ago and raised their four children. They had owned Motel in the Meadow, which they sold in 2000. He recalls the large number of inns in the town and the organizations that helped support them, such as the Innkeepers Association and the Chester Chamber of Commerce, which he would like to see revived since Chester has a unique set of challenges when it comes to economic growth.
"Spending money is sometimes what you have to do. … (town government) money spent on promotion would come back to the town."
Business growth is important to both the town economy and its tax base, he says, pointing to the Elm Street corridor as a good area for commercial and light industry expansion.
Jonynas does see the need to promote the town to the outside world. At times, he says, the Select Board can be "a little too frugal. … Spending money is sometimes what you have to do. … money spent on promotion would come back to the town."
He would like to see a reallocation of town funds to aid in that effort, touting its "top notch school system, the library, the Historical Society, the Recreation Center … outdoor activities in general. That would bring businesses in here and new residents. … Most people who spend anytime here have a positive experience. … And for tourists (Chester is) a place to stay while exploring the area and everything Vermont has."
Dark skies and solar farms
Jonynas also believes that Chester's lack of light pollution – its "dark sky" – is an asset that can be taken advantage of. Referring to the success of Stellafane, the annual retreat in Springfield that attracts telescope makers from around the world, Jonynas says that a recent proposal by the Southern Vermont Astronomy Group, based in Chester, to house a telescope for public use has real potential. "I would love to see it up there," he says, looking out his den window at the Pinnacle hillside. He cited benefits to the schools as well as tourism. It's a public-private partnership that can work once the rights and responsibilities are ironed out, he says.
And he expresses excitement about a potential solar farm on 5 acres of town-owned land on Route 103 North. A solar company would lease the land and erect 250 to 500 solar panels, offering cheaper electricity for town government, cleaner energy and, it "might help keep taxes from going up as quickly." "I'm all for it," he says. "That's a great project." Another proposal – a larger and private one – is also suggested across the street from this on Trebo Road.
One of the biggest problems Chester faces, Jonynas says, is traffic, especially truck traffic since Chester is in the middle of a major east-west corridor. Main Street at 103, near the Catholic Church, he says, is a terrible intersection, with tractor-trailers that turn north overrunning the sidewalk. That area, he says, has been on the agenda of the transportation advisory committee of the Windsor County Regional Planning Commission for quite a while.
Jonynas will be not be running for re-election to the Green Mountain Union High School Board when his term ends next year. But he is considering seeking a three-year term on the Select Board.

Happy birthday, Hans Christian! Today is the 200 anniversary of the birth of Hans Christian Andersen, the Danish poet and author famous for his fairy tales.
For more information about H.C. Andersen and the events that celebrate his bicentennial, read the H.C. Andersen 2005 web site (also available in Danish).
I was just reading the very brief story called Om Årtusinder (in English: Thousands of Years from Now) which paints a fine little sketch of Europe and a sarcastic images of the Amercan culture that didn't take 1,000 years to realize.
"To Europe!" cry the young sons of America. "To the land of our ancestors, that glorious land of memory and legends! To Europe!"
"There is really a great deal to be seen in Europe," says the young American proudly. "And we've seen it in eight days; and it is quite possible, as the great traveler" (and here he names one of his contemporaries) "tells us in his famous book, How to See All Europe in Eight Days ."
He is still very funny and very moving. Note also that this story, wrritten in 1853, has airships, the Channel Tunnel, and impatient Americans. H.C. Andersen as a science-fiction writer?


An incredible superstructure of Cisco knowledge at your fingertips. Co-founders Jeremy and Adam each run their own blogs, and there are also multiple forums to visit, video tutorials, three levels of Cisco cert knowledge (CCNA, CCNP, CCIE), and a dozen how-to tutorials for students at all level of proficiency. Say the site authors, "The information presented on this site can span a wide variety of topics that include anything from lean six sigma to configuration scripts for applying Quality of Service to a Cisco Router. The focus of the site has intentionally been left broad so a lot of topics can be discussed." As the feller once said, if you can't find it here, you don't need it!
Not too many new updates to this site these days, but between Jeremy's news and opinions blog and his extensive collection of free CCNA labs, you've still got your work cut out for you. Popular pages include an inspirational post titled "Why You Should Be Blogging," tutorials like "Port forwarding a range of ports on Cisco IOS," as well as funnier fare, like his hilarious collection of satirical "achievement unlocked" badges.
Hedlund's web design is the very essence of minimal. (If Mies van der Rohe designed blogs…) A lot of it is news-of-the-minute things that might not be as relevant now, but go check out the "most popular posts" link in the top right corner. Apart from separating out the most used tutorial posts ("How to calculate TCP throughput for long distance WAN links"), there's a whole list of Brad's study notes on topics ranging from Spanning Tree to IS-IS to OSPF. Sometimes, good things come in stark packages.
Geoff Huston has the most whitepaper-intensive blog of any we've seen so far. Blog posts tend to be either very thorough, data-driven pieces or shorter versions of full whitepapers, which can be downloaded as PDFs. Pretty nice little page of tools and scripts, too.
We couldn't mention Ethan Banks' blog (see below) without also giving space to arguably his best-known endeavor. The Packet Pushers Weekly show (as well as its many spinoffs, including Datanauts, Network Break, and Priority Queue) has been a regular work-day (or drive-time, or dishwashing) companion for aspiring network sorcerers. In addition to the robust forums and IT news, there is also a multi-input blog that features news of the now, and also a multi-author blog. The emphasis is on IT and networking professionals already in their career, so you won't find as much discussion of cert training, but if you dig through the archives, you'll find some great evergreen content, such as "Network Design – Where Should I Start?" and "6 Ways IT Pros Can Generate Revenue." Their slogan says it all: "Where Too Much Networking Would NEVER Be Enough." If you feel the same way, stop by, and block out an afternoon. At least.
Ivan Pepelnjak is the author of numerous Cisco manuals (Data Center infrastructure, EIGRP network design, MPLS and VPN architecture), and his IPSpace website is a subscription-based webinar service for individuals and companies. But even if you're not interested in going the pay route, his blog is full of short, substantive tips and tricks, efficiently subdivided by the tags list (137 posts on IP Routing alone!). The site also boasts free podcasts (under the great title "Software Gone Wild!") and some longer articles. Conveniently laid out, with everything you could need in the margins, Cisco IOS Tips and Tricks gives you a lot of free content before gently guiding you toward the pay wall.
Reese's blog is pretty bare-bones (it's part of his repair business), but his nuts-and-bolts news and updates (as well as a surprisingly helpful page of hardware troubleshooting links) makes this a must-visit site for thousands of tech professionals all over the world.
"Writing this blog is about putting something back to the Internet community because a little sharing can go a long way." So sayeth Greg Ferro, co-host of Packet Pushers (see below) and possessor of the Etherealmind himself. Greg's mind does wander freely, and some of his best blog subheaders are his musings (usually a dirty word in blog circles) on the state of the industry. (And with 25 years in IT, you can bet he's seen it all!) His quick-hits and responses to well-circulated news and blog posts always add a new twist or insight, or just critique the industry as a whole. And if you want a bit of fun afterward, don't miss the great Network Zen series, which is exactly what it sounds like.
It's no wonder that this is one of the most-visited Cisco sources on the internet. Blogs. Packet Captures. An armory of useful tools, all in one place. No matter how much you already know, how many tools you have at your disposal, you're likely to find something that'll make your work easier or more efficient.
Was it ever in doubt? If you aren't already a regular visitor to Chris Partsenidis' long running (since 2001!) information library, you're in for a huge surprise. Lest you wonder about their bona fides, Firewall.cx is one of the few websites Cisco Systems recommends in its global Cisco Academy program, and the only official Cisco Press reviewer in the world. They've answered nearly 40,000 forum questions and have an enormous free Cisco lab, to say nothing of a great selection of Cisco tools. There's plenty of other topics here (Microsoft, Linux), but honestly, Cisco fanatics, we know what you're here for. Stop reading this and GET BACK TO WORK!
I hope you enjoyed our list, and found some great new resources (or rediscovered old sites you'd forgotten) for your cert training, troubleshooting, or just day-to-day work needs. Did we miss your favorite? Would you change the order? Tell us about it in comments! And, as always, thanks for reading.

Lots of samples, deep explanations on technologies and many real world tricks!

Q: Python Flask pagination submits only last page i have a sqlalchemy query which renders a template with a couple of settings.
below you can find very simplified code to give an idea of what is going on. This code puts a checkbox field for a setting on every page, and there is no fixed nr of settings at the moment, it depends on the size of the table. As far as the pagination goes, this works fine. I can go to next and previous page.
The submit button on the page only posts the checkbox value of the last page. Is it possible to also remember and/or save the input from all pages, not just the last page?
@app.route('/settings')
def settings():

page = request.args.get('page', 1, type=int)
settings = Settings.query.paginate(page, 1, False)

next_url = url_for('settings', page=settings.next_num) \
    if settings.has_next else None

prev_url = url_for('settings', page=settings.prev_num) \
    if settings.has_prev else None

inputtype = 'checkbox'

return render_template("settings.html",
            settings = settings,
            inputtype = inputtype,
            next_url = next_url,
            prev_url = prev_url
            )

template would be something like this.

{% for setting in settings %}
<input type="{{ inputtype  }}" value="{{ setting }}" {{ setting }}
{% endfor %}

{% if prev_url %}
 Previous
(% endif %}
{% if next_url %}
 Next
{% endif %}

<input class="btn btn-primary" role="button" type="submit" value="Submit">

A: I get the feeling that if you submit you only submit the settings on the current page. Only the current settings are on the page and it would not make much sense to add all of them to the page.
I think that what you want is not possible on multiple pages if you use links to got to the previous and next settings.
If you make a change on page 1 and then click next the changes made on page 1 are not saved anywhere so they are lost.
Maybe it is possible to make previous and next also post to settings. This way you get the settings from that page and can make a temporary settings object that you can process when you click commit.

A: I fixed this without using javascript. I came across this answer and seems to do the trick. It simply does a post request and jumps to the next page.
@hugo, thanks for your answers, it certainly helped me looking in the right direction.

No to a second Brexit referendum
It is an irrelevant debate
There should be a second Brexit referendum in some capacity
Referendum between the May plan and a hard Brexit
Referendum between the May plan and canceling Brexit.
Referendum with all options on the ballot
A second Brexit referendum would undermine British democracy
A second Brexit referendum would be divisive
We need a General Election not a Second Referendum
We don't have time for a second Brexit referendum
The vote leave campaign undermined the legitimacy of the first Brexit referendum
We need one more referendum to settle the Brexit debate once and for all
The people who voted for Brexit are dying off
The Brexit on offer is not what we voted for
The government needs further clarification with another Brexit referendum
We've changed our mind on Brexit
A No-Deal Brexit is the worst-of-all-worlds scenario
There must be something for everyone with a second Brexit referendum
⟨ What are the options on a second Brexit referendum? Show more Show less
Theresa May's Brexit deal contains little to please brexiteers or remainers. Should there be a second referendum on Brexit?
Referendum between the May plan and a hard Brexit Show more Show less
The public has voted for Brexit but not for the type of Brexit. Since the politicians can't agree, a referendum could decide the issue.
<< Previous (4 of 6 Positions) Next >>
The first election was the 'yes or no' the second will be the 'how'
<< Previous (2 of 2 Arguments)
The first referendum was very limited in its scope. It asked people if they wanted to leave but didn't specify how people wanted to leave.
Holding a second referendum which gave people the choice between a hard, no deal Brexit, and Theresa May's plan would allow people to choose the terms over which they wanted Brexit to occur. If the public wants to prioritise escaping from EU jurisdiction and the immediate control over our immigration policies, they can vote for a hard, no-deal Brexit. If they would rather remain in the customs union and avoid the imposition of tariffs, the introduction of extensive bureaucracy and customs declarations on all exports to Europe, and the uncertainty over Britain's future trade with the EU, they can vote for Theresa May's plan, which includes a backstop for Northern Ireland and a transition period which would see Britain remain in the customs union.[1] The second referendum wouldn't undermine Britain's democracy as the scope is sufficiently different from the first. It would just add clarity to what the people want.
This option refuses to acknowledge the glaring issues with the first referendum. Not only did the Vote Leave campaign break campaign laws, but high-profile Brexiteers lied extensively. As a result, the first in/out vote was not legitimate. We cannot move onto the 'how' until we have clarified the decision in binary in/out terms. It also doesn't account for shifting public opinion. Given polling now indicates more people would prefer to remain in the EU than accept the terms on offer in Theresa May's deal or invoke a hard Brexit, the original question should be revisited.
The first referendum only dealt with the issue in binary terms. The government should consult the people for guidance over 'how'.
The first election was illegitimate and didn't deal with the issue at all. We can't move on to 'how' until we have clarified the in/out vote.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/long_reads/second-brexit-referendum-why-vince-cable-nick-clegg-immigration-a8377786.html
The issues that were important to people who voted to leave the EU in 2016 have not been addressed in the Brexit deal on the table.

Higher Risk of Homicide Among Pregnant and Postpartum Females Aged 10-29 Years in Illinois, 2002-2011.
Koch pregnancy associated homicide 2016.pdf (176.4Kb)
Koch, A.R.
Rosenberg, D.
Geller, S.E.
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether being pregnant or postpartum was associated with excess risk for homicide among females in Illinois and to describe the association between pregnancy status and homicide by race, ethnicity, and age group. METHODS: This is a retrospective, multicohort, ecologic study of females of reproductive age in Illinois between 2002 and 2011 using Illinois Department of Public Health maternal mortality data and vital records data. We compared pregnancy-associated homicides with live births using χ2 tests. Among maternal deaths in the state, we calculated mortality rates per 100,000 live births for homicide and other violent causes and the leading direct obstetric causes. We calculated aggregate, pregnancy-associated, and nonpregnancy associated homicide rates stratified by race or ethnicity and age group. RESULTS: There were 636 pregnancy-associated deaths in Illinois from 2002 to 2011. Of these, 82 (13%) were the result of homicide (5.0 [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.0–6.2]/100,000 live births). There were 931 homicides among females of reproductive age not associated with pregnancy (2.88 [95% CI 2.70–3.07]/100,000 population). More than half of the homicides were women aged 20–29 years (n=53 [64.6%]), non-Hispanic black women (n=43 [52.4%]), women residing in Cook County (n=47 [57.3%]), and unmarried women (n=57 [69.5%]). Pregnant and postpartum females aged 10–29 years were at twice the risk of homicide compared with their nonpregnant or postpartum counterparts (relative risk 2.20 [95% CI 1.70–2.85]). Non-Hispanic black and Hispanic females experienced higher rates of homicide than non-Hispanic white females irrespective of pregnancy or age. CONCLUSION: Although all violence against women must be addressed, we recommend that state maternal mortality review committees, in addition to reviewing deaths resulting from obstetric and clinical causes, should conduct in-depth reviews of pregnancy-associated homicides and other violent deaths.

Die Layoutplanung, auch innerbetriebliche Standortplanung genannt, ist eine Aufgabe in der Produktionslogistik und Produktionswirtschaft und bezeichnet die räumliche Anordnung der Produktionssegmente bei der Fabrikplanung.

Hierbei stehen im Kern des Entscheidungsproblems die Anordnung der Produktionssegmente, die Materialflussbeziehungen und die Informationsflüsse bei der Verknüpfung der Produktionssegmente miteinander. Jedoch treten Probleme der Layoutplanung auch bei der Anordnung der Arbeitsplätze in Großraumbüros oder Warenarten in einem Lager auf.

Ziel ist in erster Linie die Minimierung der Transportleistung. Die Transportleistung ergibt sich aus dem Produkt von Transportaufkommen (Transportaufwand) und Versandweite (Transportweg). Auch die Transportzeiten, Raumkosten, Zwischenlagerkosten sowie Standortwechselkosten sollen minimiert werden. Ferner sollen eine gute Übersichtlichkeit und eine geringe Störanfälligkeit – durch gradlinige Materialflüsse, bei denen es im Idealfall zu keinen Kreuzungen oder Rückflüssen kommt – hergestellt werden.

Angewendet wird die Layoutplanung zur Neugestaltung, also zur erstmaligen Bestimmung des Standortes der Produktionssegmente, des Weiteren bei einer Umstellung der Materialflussbeziehungen zwischen verschiedenen Produktionssegmenten sowie bei der Erweiterung um zusätzliche Produktionssegmente.

Die Visualisierung der Materialflüsse erfolgt in der Regel mithilfe eines Sankey-Diagramms, eines Mengen-Wege-Bilds oder der Transportmengenmatrix.

Grundsätzlich wird  zwischen Grob- und Feinlayoutplanung unterschieden.

Bei der Groblayoutplanung werden durch die Anordnung von abstrahierten Fabrikobjekten und unter Berücksichtigung räumlicher Restriktionen (bspw. Wände oder Stützen) mehrere Layoutvarianten erstellt. Zur Bewertung der Layoutvarianten wird neben der Berechnung der quantitativen Ziele (bspw. Transportleistung) häufig auch eine Nutzwertanalyse durchgeführt. So können auch qualitative Ziele (bspw. Übersichtlichkeit, Störanfälligkeit, Wandlungsfähigkeit) in die Bewertung einbezogen werden.

Bei der Feinlayoutplanung erfolgt die Ausgestaltung der abstrahierten Fabrikobjekte beziehungsweise des Layouts durch die exakte Positionierung von Maschinen und Arbeitsplätzen innerhalb der Produktionssegmente. Während die Groblayoutplanung häufig zweidimensional erfolgt, wird bei der Feinlayoutplanung oft ein 3D-Modell erstellt, mit welchem die dritte Raumebene einbezogen werden kann.

Restriktionen der Layoutplanung
Die Layoutplanung wird durch u. a. Standortforderungen und Standortgegebenheiten eingeschränkt.

Standortforderungen
Die zu bearbeitenden Produkte nehmen durch Größe, Gewicht und Flächenbedarf Einfluss auf Transport und Lagerung. Der Organisationstyp der Produktion beeinflusst die Anordnung der Produktionssegmente. Auch die Betriebsmittel stellen Ansprüche an die Layoutplanung. Der benötigte Flächenbedarf, die Form sowie die Bodentragfähigkeit muss berücksichtigt werden. Des Weiteren ist auf die Arbeiter Rücksicht zu nehmen. Diese stellen Ansprüche an Belüftung, Lichtverhältnisse, Lärmpegel usw.

Standortgegebenheiten
In erster Linie sind die vorhandenen Gebäude einschränkend. Bei Veränderungen sind gesetzliche Restriktionen zu beachten. Hierzu zählen die Gewerbeordnung, die Arbeitsstättenverordnung, oder das Arbeitssicherheitsgesetz. Nicht zu vernachlässigen ist auch das Betriebsgelände. Topografische Gegebenheiten können Veränderungen erschweren oder sogar verhindern.

All the pictures were taken in the south of Iran.
I have no wings and flying without wings are not easy; let alone my wings have no feathers! However when I travel to the south, the sky is so clear, remarkably clear and my soul goes in the sky! I pick the prettiest part of the sky and I melt into the wing and then into the air, till I'm just soul on a sunbeam.
Kashan-Niasar: In The Middle of Vast Deserts!
In the middle of vast deserts and beautiful mountains there is a beautiful small village with lots of flowers, a waterfall and caves hidden in the desert surrounded by mountains.
The green and beautiful resort village of Niasar is located 28 kilometers west of the city of Kashan, Isfahan province. Niasar's Sassanid monument is a domed building constructed over a rock at the highest point of Niasar village which can be seen from afar.
Niasar cave, with its entrance openings, located in gardens north of Niasar village, is a temple belonging to followers of Mitra (god of ancient Persia). The temple most probably dates back to the early Partian era. All but one of the chambers of the cave are man-made.The Eid-ul-Adha (Al-Adha feast) held in Niasar lends proof to the fact that people living in the region in the olden times believed in Mithraism.
Katale khor (Persian: کتله‌خور,Azerbaijani: كتل كوتول) is a cave located in Zanjan Province, Iran. It's situated at 120 km south of Zanjan city and 410 km away from Tehran. The name, Katale khor, means "mount of Sun".
It is believed that the cave joins to Ali Sadr Cave in Hamadan province.
The cave was scientifically studied at 1984 and due to the results, formation of the cave referred to the Jurassic period (about 120 million years ago). The cave mostly contains lime stalactites and stalagmites and huge halls and corridors, mainly dry. Three levels of the cave have been explored so far and it is anticipated that unexplored levels exceeds to four. Currently, there are two visiting routes inside the cave, a 2 km long straight route for public visit and a 4 km long sport route for professionals. This cave at entry stages was residence of ancient people so that bones of about 80 people are still preserved.

It�s not very often one can use the term �The Greatest� but in Janie Nolan�s case it is absolutely true. Since high school girls Cross Country	became a sport over 40 years ago she remains the city of Antioch�s greatest female XC	runner ever. Coached by Mike Amorosa, Janie	literally burst on to the XC scene . A s a ninth grader she was the 3 rd fastest freshman in the Division 1 State Meet	and was 1	st Team All -North Coast Section	, qualifying for her first State Meet where she finished as the 3	rd fastest freshman runner in the State of California in the Division 1 race and the 4	th fastest N CS runner regardless of grade. Janie capped off her Track season by setting a school record in the 3200	meters with a time of 10	:51. 75, breaking Sports Legends Hall of Fame Inductee, Shane Felix�s school record by nearly 20 seconds. As a sophomore in 1999 she would only get better winning her first league title and being named 1	st Team All -North Coast Section for the second	year after leading her team to the BVAL and NCS Titles	. However, the best was yet to come. In the California State Meet she finished 2 nd overall and led her team to a 3	rd place finis	h in the Division II race. This is	2 nd highest placing ever for an Antioc	h High School team in head to head competition, surpassed only by the 1998 Sports Legends Hall of Fame wrestling team . Near the end of her sophomore season Janie was dealt a serious setback, contracting mononucleosis which carried over into her junior cros	s country season. Despite this hurdle, Janie overcame the obstacle and though not 100% won her second league title and her third 1	st Team Al l-North Coast Section	award . She would help her team qualify for the State Meet and would go on to finish	1 st for her team and 15	th overall in the championship race. Janie also qualified for the State Track M	eet as a freshman, sophomore and j	unior , was named to the CC Times top 50 female athletes list all three years	and was AHS	�s 2002 valedictorian.

The Border Terrier is a small, medium-boned sturdy dog. The shoulders and body are narrow. The space between the eyes is relatively wide. The muzzle is short and usually dark, with a slight, moderately broad stop. The nose is black. The teeth are strong with a scissors bite. The small ears are V-shaped, set on the side of the head, dropping forward close to the cheeks and are usually dark in color. The medium-sized eyes are dark hazel in color. The front legs are straight and not too heavy. The medium-sized tail is thicker at the base and tapers. Border Terriers have a short, dense, wiry double coat that comes in red, grizzle and tan, blue and tan, or wheaten. There may be a small amount of white on the chest. A dark muzzle is desired in the show ring.
The Border Terrier is an alert, bold little hunter. Very agile, it is willing to squeeze through a narrow space to capture any quarry that may be on the other side. Lively, they enjoy playing with children. Affectionate, mild-mannered dogs that aim to please their owners makes them easy to train. This sturdy, scruffy, little terrier is a good watchdog, and may bark, but is not aggressive. Be sure to socialize them well. Puppies should be made accustomed to loud noises while they are still young to avoid excessive timidity. Puppies and adolescent Border Terriers are very active, but will mellow as adults provided they get plenty of exercise. Border Terriers like to dig; it is a good idea to install additional reinforcements along the bottom of fences. Good with family cats if socialized with them, however this hunting terrier has strong instincts and should not be trusted with non-canine pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, and birds. Be sure you are always your dog's firm, confident, consistent pack leader, to avoid Small Dog Syndrome, and separation anxiety.
Prone to Canine Epileptoid Cramping Syndrome (CECS), also known as "Spike's Disease." This is a recently recognized canine health problem and hereditary canine disease in Border Terriers. It can sometimes get confused with canine epilepsy. It is also being considered to be a metabolic, neurological or muscle disorder.
The Border Terrier will do okay in an apartment if it is sufficiently exercised. They are moderately inactive indoors and a small yard is sufficient.
Border Terriers were bred to hunt and have great vitality and stamina. They need plenty of exercise, which includes a long daily walk.
The durable, wiry coat needs to be brushed weekly and professionally groomed twice a year. The object is a completely natural look. The Border Terrier sheds little to no hair and is good for allergy sufferers. Bathe only when necessary.
It was in the Cheviot Hills near the border of England and Scotland that the Border Terrier was first bred. The breed is possibly one of the oldest types of terriers in Great Britain. The farmers had problems with foxes killing their stock and the Border Terrier worked alongside them to drive the fox out of their dens and kill them. They were small enough to follow a fox into the ground but big enough to keep up with the horses. The dogs were often not fed by the farmers in hopes it would make their prey drive even higher and they had to hunt to survive. Along with fox they hunted otters, marten, the fierce badger, mice and rats. Today while the Border Terrier is mostly a companion dog, he can still serve as a fine farm dog, helping to control vermin. The Border Terrier was recognized by the British Kennel Club in 1920 and by the American Kennel Club in 1930. Some of the Border Terrier's talents include: hunting, tracking, watchdog, agility, competitive obedience and performing tricks.

Office gear like printers and phones may not look like computers, but they are vulnerable to hackers
Your office phone, the printer, the building control system — these may not sound like computers, but they can all ...
Written by Barry Koppal on Aug 12 Under Advantage Tech Insights
Your office phone, the printer, the building control system — these may not sound like computers, but they can all be hacked, according to cybersecurity pros. According to a CNBC News article:
"This is probably the most important cybersecurity threat that we have today because these computers control every single aspect of our critical infrastructure that we depend on every single day," said Ang Cui, the CEO of Red Balloon, a New York City based cybersecurity company that specializes in keeping devices safe.
These devices contain what are known as embedded computers — microprocessors that use software to execute simple commands.
"An embedded computer is pretty much everything that is not a laptop, server, or a desktop," Cui said.
Embedded computers are found in smart home devices, medical gear, cars, financial exchanges, power plants and more.
Companies have been compromised by embedded computers. Target's 2013 data breach occurred after malware was installed on its point of sale system, which incorporates embedded devices. Since the breach, Target says it has taken actions including developing of point-of-sale management tools and decommissioning vendor access to the server impacted in the breach.
"[The breach] certainly cost Target a great deal of money and a great deal of headache," Cui said. "They're by no means the only company that had to recover from some event like this."
The embedded device market is not slowing down. It is projected to be worth more than $214 billion by 2020, according to Radiant Insights, a market research company.

Commission for Women to hold 2016 awards luncheon April 8
The University community has until Feb. 10 to nominate Penn State women to receive the Rosemary Schraer Mentoring Award or the Achieving Women Awards. Awardees are chosen from nominations across the University, including faculty, staff and students. Image: Trish Hummer
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — The Penn State Commission for Women will hold its 10th annual awards luncheon from noon to 1:30 p.m. (lunch buffet opens at 11:30 a.m.) on Friday, April 8, in the Presidents Hall at The Penn Stater Conference Center Hotel to honor this year's Rosemary Schraer Mentoring and Achieving Women Awards recipients.
Tickets are available until Friday, March 18, at http://equity.psu.edu/cfw. The cost is $22 per person and $220 for a reserved table of 10 seats. An email confirmation will be sent once registration is complete. Sandy Barbour, Penn State's director of athletics, will be the featured speaker at this year's luncheon.
Looking ahead to the 2017 luncheon, a minimal $3 increase in ticket prices is expected due to inflation. The Commission for Women is providing this information in advance to allow University departments to plan accordingly for table reservations.
The Rosemary Schraer Mentoring Award is presented each spring to a University employee who exemplifies Schraer's giving of herself as a mentor and who has voluntarily, over a period of time, helped others recognize and achieve their potential. Consideration is given to any employee (administrator, faculty, technical service, or staff member) who has a record of outstanding mentoring service that goes beyond the requirements of his/her employment duties and responsibilities.
The Achieving Women Award recognizes seven Penn State women who have shown notable leadership and accomplishment in their fields, and who have gone beyond the requirements of employment duties and responsibilities in their support of the University's diversity efforts, promotion of equal opportunity, or contribution to human causes and public service activities. These awards are presented to current employees and students of Penn State from each of the following categories: faculty, staff exempt, staff nonexempt, administrator, technical service, and undergraduate and graduate students (including postdoctoral fellows and scholars).
To submit nominations, visit equity.psu.edu/cfw/awards. Submissions are due no later than Wednesday, Feb. 10.
The featured speaker at the Commission for Women's 2016 awards luncheon on April 8 will be Sandy Barbour, Penn State's first female athletic director and the third woman in the history of the Big Ten Conference to lead a combined men's and women's athletic department.

SB Nation Reacts: Nick Herbig or Leo Chenal...who are you riding with? [UPDATED WITH RESULTS]
Maybe the most impossible question we've ever asked is in this week's Reacts post!
By Drew Hamm@drewhamm5 Updated Nov 5, 2021, 4:29pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: SB Nation Reacts: Nick Herbig or Leo Chenal...who are you riding with? [UPDATED WITH RESULTS]
We've got a real Sophie's Choice question for you this week.
Photo by Dan Sanger/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Each week, we send out questions to the most plugged-in Wisconsin Badgers fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to join Reacts.
This week we have maybe the toughest question we've ever asked. It involves deciding between our two Large Adult Pass Rushing Sons, Leo Chenal and Nick Herbig, and I've never been more torn. Let's do a little Tale of the Tape for these two sack masters to help you decide.
Nick Herbig has 6.0 sacks for a loss of 32 yards and eight tackles for loss this season. He also has an additional quarterback hit and has forced one fumble.
Leo Chenal has 5.5 sacks for a loss of 46 yards and 11.5 tackles for loss this season. Chenal has two QB hits and has forced two fumbles.
I wonder if Herbig would like to take this tweet back once he sees the poll we're running?

If the Badgers win their last four games of the season, they will win the Big Ten West. There are even paths for them to win the division with only three wins in their last four games, but let's not concern ourselves with those for the time being. Do you think Wisconsin is going to win the Big Ten West?
Vote right here and we'll have the results for you before the game against Rutgers on Saturday!
Click here to vote if viewing on a mobile device.
Check out DraftKings Sportsbook, the official sportsbook partner of SB Nation.
And here are the results, which are kind of surprising to me in how big of a gap there was in the Chenal/Herbig vote. A full three quarters of you think Leo Chenal is the man for the job and, well, I won't disagree I just thought it would be closer.
As far as how people think the race for the Big Ten West title is going to play out...this was a little more predictable. Nine out of 10 of us think that the Badgers will be representing the Best Division In College Football in Indianapolis this year. I'll say it would be pretty fun to go up to Minneapolis and beat the Gophers in another division-deciding game this year.

Naples, Marco Island and the Everglades: Fascinating Wildlife on Florida's Paradise Coast
By: Karen Galvin
Thrilling wildlife of all shapes and sizes awaits visitors who explore the abundant parks and preserves of Florida's Paradise Coast.
Alligators, manatees, dolphins, sea turtles and hundreds of bird species can be spotted in Everglades National Park, Big Cypress National Preserve and other wild expanses, all just minutes from the plush amenities and white-sand beaches of Naples and Marco Island.
Less than an hour south of Naples, Everglades National Park's Gulf Coast entrance is the western gateway to this famous maze of shallow waterways and mangrove islands. Explore by kayak or canoe, and watch for dolphins, manatees, alligators, herons, egrets and osprey. Visitors might even see rare American crocodiles – this is the only place in the world where alligators and crocodiles coexist.
Spotting alligators in Everglades National Park
Exploring the Everglades from Naples and Marco Island, Florida
Florida black bears, white-tailed deer and Florida panthers roam the vast expanses of Big Cypress National Preserve, about 45 minutes southeast of Naples. Take a ranger-led hike or swamp walk to learn more about the wildlife that lives in the preserve's habitats, including bald cypress stands and oak hammocks. The preserve also offers great alligator-spotting at H.P. Williams Roadside Park and the Oasis Visitor Center. You might spy manatees in the viewing area behind the Big Cypress Swamp Welcome Center.

Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge
It's possible to catch a glimpse of the rare Florida panther in the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge, about an hour east of Naples. But since only around 120 of the critically endangered big cats survive in the state, hikers on the refuge's two public trails are more likely to see Osceola turkeys, white-tailed deer, red-shouldered hawks and various woodpeckers.
Although the rare Everglades mink has been spotted in Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park, this amazing location is most famous for supporting the area's largest population of rare, endangered ghost orchid plants, as well as many other native orchid and bromeliad species. Keep an eye to the sky for sandhill cranes, bald eagles and roseate spoonbills in this largest and least developed of Florida's state parks, 90 minutes east of Naples.

Audubon Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary
About 30 minutes north of Naples, the accessible Audubon Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary brings nature close to visitors who might not be eager to brave Florida's wilder expanses. Stroll along a 3.6-kilometer boardwalk (or opt for the 1.6-kilometer loop) through a bald cypress forest to see gator holes and bird-filled lakes. Bobcats, black bears, otters and barred owls are among the park's inhabitants; migratory painted buntings can be seen at the feeders near the visitor center (they're the small birds with rainbow-hued feathers).

Tigertail Beach, Marco Island
Marco Island, with its luxury resorts and manicured neighborhoods, is also home to Tigertail Beach Park. Wade or paddleboard across the narrow lagoon to reach a long, pristine beach with manatees and dolphins swimming offshore, brown pelicans diving for lunch and a wildlife observation tower offering views of a nearby osprey nest. Adjacent to the park is Big Marco Pass Critical Wildlife Area, which protects three species of birds that nest there: black skinners, snowy plovers and least terns.
Marco Island Beaches
Fly into Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW), and rent a car for the 40-minute drive into downtown Naples. Ride-hailing services are also available. Naples is also about two hours by car from the international airports in Miami and Fort Lauderdale.

The level we set for ourselves. When the bearer of a message delivers it, the way he makes his announcement depends on two things —what he thinks of the message, and how responsible he feels as the bearer. If he does not think much of either, the message is delivered on a low level.
The scope of our task. It is literally this. We must be clear that it is not just a large-scale evangelical effort. It is a confluence of physical and spiritual forces without precedent in history. It is the end of the old and the creation of the New World Order. It is the remaking of mankind. Continued on page 5 [Page 3] fit; Ed.

Here are exerpts from letters that have arrived from the middle east. Next report — India! Imagine my delight at finding two Hands of the Cause here also. Alai and Mr. Samandari, both on their way back to Teheran. In one hour I shall be leaving for Teheran on the same flight as Mr.
At first I was appalled at the poorness of the city, but after being here a few days I find the city grows on you. Tuesday I spent with Mr. Doktierriguler, the local Board Member, 3. He took Mr. Alai and myself to the Black Sea for lunch. In the evening we went to his home where there was a meeting with the Hands, Auxiliary Board Members and the N. It was here I had the privilege of meeting Mr. They always did as he asked. Never have I seen such jewels!
Thrones made of gold set with precious jewels, pearl covers and cushions, the second largest diamond in the world, emeralds, rubies, set after set of dishes —— oh such wealth!
This morning I visited the Dalmanche Palace built between and Never have I seen anything like it! It is magnificent but then one looks across the straits and sees the dreadful poverty.
This land could be beautiful if properly farmed and cleaned. Last night I went to a meeting with the friends at which Mr. Alai spoke. How unfortunate that we do not have our auxiliary language yet, for he spoke in Persian. It was translated into Turkish, but neither are my forte!
We entered first a doorway into a garden and quietly made our way to the threshold of that sanctity of peace. Here was the well from which they drew their water, and the orange tree planted by His hand, which had covered the entire court, but now, with !
One is struck by its exquisite petitness. Walls covered with flowers, the rug reaching from wall to wall, the five windows into the garden, the lamp. This room was only twelve by ten feet, the approximate size of all the rooms in this house.
Here it was that she had her visions of the Station of her Beloved Husband. We then mounted the high steps to the one room above, which was to prove the Most Holy Place for the New Dispensation of man. It was in this place that the truth of the Prophecies was revealed. We knelt in wonder before the spot where the Declaration was manifest.
One could feel the presence of this Holy Man, so great was the peace and tranquility, After the prayers we gazed around us in awe, drinking in every detail, absorbing its peace, hoping to be able to carry with us its love to share with others around the world. It was with regret that we made our way down the other set of stairs. When we gathered below, Mr. Note — Hedi Ahmadiyeh is now pioneering in British Honduras, under extremely difficult circumstances.
The Canadian National Assembly has sent two small contributions to assist with the promising work in that goal — which brought this reply. Dearly beloved friends: Thank you very much for your letter and the enclosed cheque.
The N. I am thrilled by the wonderful news of the great and exemplary victories which you all have achieved in the service of this glorious Cause: Ya Baha all abha! He who watches over its destinies, from Whose pen testimonies so significant and soul thrilling have flowed, will no doubt continue to direct its steps, to shower upon it His loving bounties, to surround it with His constant care, and to enable it to scale loftier hights on its ascent towards the summit of its destiny.
I pray that by its acts, this community will prove itself worthy of the trust confided to its care and the station to which it has been called. Dear friends: It is beyond my ability to express befittingly my deep feelings of appreciation and gratitude for so much love and bounty which you showered upon me. Those nine weeks in your country will remain as the brilliant vista of my memories. The Faith is growing rapidly in this country.

I have frequently been sick since my arrival and I need your loving prayers. He was also generous with his time for individual consultation. His keen perception was active primarily in his understanding of the spiritual reality in man.
The shoddy or superficial was stripped away within a few words. If you could not stand this searchlight of the spirit, it was your loss. If you came to him with a problem, he set you again on the path of love, service and obedience; the particular was gently but firmly put in its true proportion with the whole. His humor was ever present, wholesome and clarifying. He seemed to me to have conquered his personal dragons with quiet dignity and to have dispatched them with circumspection, finesse, and even with a certain amount of dry good humor.
What better way to dispose of dragons? He was intolerant of second best. Having reached the City of Certitude himself, he was able to show the path and help smooth the way for others. It was almost uncanny how he could hold your gaze for a long, searching moment, then unerringly focus on the precise cause of your particular spiritual dilemma.

Perhaps because he was denied the full use of his sense of hearing, his other four senses of appreciation developed to an extraordinary degree.
That, also, may have played a part in strengthening his sixth sense — his spiritual insight and perception. His sleepy lidded eyes saw more than others whose eyes were open yet saw not. My hope, indeed my prayer, is that you may be graciously assisted to establish a group of fervent believers who will form a nucleus and foundation for a flourishing spiritual assembly. Perservere in your pioneer efforts and rest assured.
Your true and grateful brother, Shoghi. Soon, it would come pouring out, and he would gain a mysterious momentum which carried us all into his rarefied atmosphere. Newcomers would rivet their eyes on him in amazed fascination, and the rest of us would become serious and transfixed by his intense interpretation of the teachings.
We were all spellbound. Often he would gave around the room at us with eyes that inquired into the soul, and words that held deadly conviction. It was unnerving if your mind happened to be filled with surface matter. The pristine words rolled out, and you plucked from a surfeit what your letter mind could grasp.
He repeated himself often, so that you could go back and tie the pieces together, but It was never boring to hear the same phrases over again, it only made you more aware of their simple truth. And this was somehow annoying because you knew that it was. He meant this in the sense that without God directing our lives we were nothing.
With God in our lives, he would go on, we could become the most fulfilled, the most mature, the most happy people that it was possible to become. He stressed that there was no such thing as accident or coincidence, that God knew every line that our eyes would follow in the newspaper, that He was deeply interested in us, and waited only for us to want His love, and that When we did, He was ready to shower and encompass us and enfold us in His perfect love.
All we had to do was to ask. And the saddest thing in the world George would often say, was that people did not want to turn to God. Yesterday, I looked around, and he was standing right behind me. Our final port of call will probably be Seoul, and I am going to see if God permits if I can be of any use to the Koreans. They have had such a hard history! I am going to various places in the Far East, and if I find a place where I can Continued on page 5 [Page 5] Continued from page 4 be of use to the Faith, even at my advanced age, it is my intention to stay there.
However, man proposes and God disposes. He is buried in a small, peaceful cemetery in Thornhill, Ontario, about ten miles from his home. George Wrote me quite often; there was always this straining to be up and away, to go back to the East he loved and understood and there teach the Faith so supremely dear to his heart.

The top ten richest people in India are from family owned companies. The people at the top of those companies are continuing a dynasty of privileged executives. Dynasties of leadership and power from established wealth continues to expand worldwide. The forestalling of upward career mobility implies concurrent economic stagnation for middle and lower classes. Dynasties at the top mirror the same at the bottom regardless of the willingness of those at the bottom to strive above and beyond their economic class. Will the coal miner's son always be a coal miner too in the 21st century?
Singapore will cut salaries for its prime minister and top office holders after voter unhappiness over a widening income gap weakened support for the ruling party in last year's elections. Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's annual income will fall 36 percent to S$2.2 million ($1.7 million) while the president's compensation would be reduced 51 percent to S$1.54 million.
In an interview on BBC, the Prime Minister of Singapore argued that organizations have to "pay competitively and pay commensurate with the position." But, is that true only because the people at the top determine and set their own wages with no significant interference from those beneath them? Obviously when people get to vote on it, those at the top get a pay cut.
Job creation going forward will be regionally unequal, unbalanced, and unfair. The statistics substantiate this For example Turkey, with twice the population of California, grew 3.4 million jobs in the last 5 years while California remains among the highest in US unemployment at 10+percent. Singapore is the 2nd biggest gambling mecca in the world (after Las Vegas with 20%+ unemployment) and has 15% of its households with $1M in assets.
Emerging markets are taking the lion's share of manufacturing and skilled worker positions because of the inequities of economic standards. The USA and Western nations will have large and sustained unemployment numbers with stagnating or lowered wages for years to come until the living standards and salaries of emerging markets catch up.
Will China eventually stop its sweat shop, camp-living production factories that have created a workforce of national indentured servants, akin to the European guest workers, or the illegal immigrant workforce in the USA? With gross inequities of pay scales worldwide, the jobs will go where the salaries are the lowest.
Do we have a right to work? Don't we tie basic survival rights to everyone's ability to pay for them? Isn't that why they call it "earning a living"?
In the 21st century, can a civil society require a portion of the populace go without the basic necessities of life, and be deprived of opportunity because there is not enough work to go around?
If not, then where does the money come from to ensure that everyone has food, clothing, shelter, basic medicine, a decent education, and an eventual shot at a job?
Excellent Article.. One tends to think in terms of local jobs and unemployment. Perhaps even national unemployment.
Yet, when one views the world as one labor market where people can do your job, not just across town but the other side of the world. It eye opener.
Even worst for those in the middle class in first world countries. They can do it for a fraction of what people are pay in first world countries. Does that drive down incomes to a level of poverty for everyone ? That would be an extremely bleak picture for knowledge workers.
Complex Questions demand Serious thoughts.. Not Slogans or pandering to the fears of those Millions who will be effected..This can be a bright future if we create it with solid solutions...If we leave it to others who are driven by Greed on one hand and the political forces who will use this to divide peoples and nations. It could be quiet bleak.. So do everyone a favor, get the facts and make your voice hear for a better out come for everyone..


BERKELEY – A group of four-footed mammals that flourished worldwide for 40 million years and then died out in the ice ages is the missing link between the whale and its not-so-obvious nearest relative, the hippopotamus.
"The problem with hippos is, if you look at the general shape of the animal it could be related to horses, as the ancient Greeks thought, or pigs, as modern scientists thought, while molecular phylogeny shows a close relationship with whales," said Boisserie. "But cetaceans – whales, porpoises and dolphins – don't look anything like hippos. There is a 40-million-year gap between fossils of early cetaceans and early hippos."
"In this particular case, you can't really rely on the dentition, however," Boisserie said. "Teeth are the best preserved and most numerous fossils, and analysis of teeth is very important in paleontology, but they are subject to lots of environmental processes and can quickly adapt to the outside world. So, most characteristics are not dependable indications of relationships between major groups of mammals. Teeth are not as reliable as people thought."
All this was thrown into disarray in 1985 when UC Berkeley's Vincent Sarich, a pioneer of the field of molecular evolution and now a professor emeritus of anthropology, analyzed blood proteins and saw a close relationship between hippos and whales. A subsequent analysis of mitochondrial, nuclear and ribosomal DNA only solidified this relationship.
This new analysis finally brings the fossil evidence into accord with the molecular data, showing that whales and hippos indeed are one another's closest relatives.
"This work provides another important step for the reconciliation between molecular- and morphology-based phylogenies, and indicates new tracks for research on emergence of cetaceans," Boisserie said.
While the common ancestor of cetaceans and anthracotheres probably wasn't fully aquatic, it likely lived around water, he said. And while many anthracotheres appear to have been adapted to life in water, all of the youngest fossils of anthracotheres, hippos and cetaceans are aquatic or semi-aquatic.
"Our study is the most complete to date, including lots of different taxa and a lot of new characteristics," Boisserie said. "Our results are very robust and a good alternative to our findings is still to be formulated."

The work was supported in part by the Mission Paléoanthropologique Franco-Tchadienne, which is co-directed by Brunet and Patrick Vignaud of the Université de Poitiers, and in part by funds to Boisserie from the Fondation Fyssen, the French Ministère des Affaires Etrangères and the National Science Foundation's Revealing Hominid Origins Initiative, which is co-directed by Tim White and Clark Howell of UC Berkeley.


Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is likely to become a major component of the telehealth field. With RPM, providers can continually monitor patients with chronic illnesses and, with this constant vigilance, may be able to significantly reduce hospital admissions, readmissions and ER visits, saving a great deal of health care cost. Additionally, patients can benefit from the knowledge that their conditions are being monitored and from the education they can receive from case managers.
This toolkit provides a series of topics to consider when preparing a business case for RPM.

FIXING COUNTRY ROADS PROGRAM ROUND TWO NOW OPEN – Further $50 million available for local councils
MEMBER for Northern Tablelands Adam Marshall has today announced the second round of the state's Fixing Country Roads program is open and a further $50 million is available to local councils to help repair council owned roads and bridges.
Mr Marshall said that funding for round two was part of a $500 million commitment from Rebuilding NSW to fix council-owned infrastructure that created bottlenecks and hindered efficient freight transport across country NSW.
"The program is designed to better connect local roads to state highways and key freight hubs such as silos, saleyards, rail heads, supermarket distribution centres, industrial parks and depots to make it easier to move regional freight from paddock to port," Mr Marshall said.
"The first round of Fixing Country Roads, announced in February this year, provided more than $2.8 million for four projects across the Northern Tablelands, worth almost $5 million, in Moree Plains (Croppa Creek Road), Inverell (Tin Tot Bridge), Uralla (Abington Creek Bridge) and Armidale Dumaresq (Rockvale Road) local government areas.
"Across country NSW, 77 projects were given the nod with $43 million allocated."
Mr Marshall said he wanted the region's local councils and joint organisations to get involved again and work closely with local industry and transport operators to identify and prioritise projects to make the most out of this round.
"I'm also encouraging councils to apply for matching funding under Federal Government's Bridges Renewal Programme, Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productivity Programme and National Stronger Regions Fund," Mr Marshall said.
"This will enable our region to stretch government dollars even further and minimise the expense borne by local ratepayers to improve critical freight links.
"By partnering together in round one, the NSW Government, Federal Government and local councils turned $43 million into $73 million worth of infrastructure improvements for country areas."
Mr Marshall said Fixing Country Roads had a two-stage application process: a one-two-page Expression of Interest (EOI), followed by a more detailed request for information from shortlisted projects.
The Infrastructure NSW Regional Independent Assessment Panel, which includes representatives from Local Government NSW, Livestock and Bulk Carriers Association of NSW, NSW Farmers Association and the NRMA will assess project applications.
The EOI phase closes on Friday, 11 December. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to submit a more detailed application.
Successful projects are expected to be awarded funding at the end of March 2016 for delivery in the 2016-17 financial year.
For information on the Fixing Country Roads funding criteria, program guidelines, key dates and information on how to submit an Expression of Interest online, please visit www.freight.transport.nsw.gov.au
