In June 2014 French Pres. François Hollande announced a plan to reduce the number of régions in metropolitan France from 21 to 13. The reorganization was designed to address redundancies in regional bureaucracies and to reduce costs. In November 2014 the National Assembly approved the measure, and it took effect on January 1, 2016. The région of Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes was thus created, encompassing a large portion of east-central France. Area 22,176 square miles (69,711 square km). Pop. (2015 est.) 7,877,698.

Big Brother is the UK's biggest reality TV show and is one of the most popular talked-about shows in British TV history. Big Brother takes place entirely within the confines of the Big Brother House. It's essentially a competition between the housemates, the object of which is to be the last remaining housemate in the House. At least one housemate will leave the House every week by a process of nomination and public eviction. Housemates will nominate each other for eviction and those with the most votes from their peers face a public vote. The housemate that receives most public votes leaves the House and is out of the competition. Housemates are provided with a shopping budget each week to buy food and other necessities. Throughout the series housemates will be asked to complete tasks set by Big Brother. If the group does well in the tasks they get rewarded with a bigger shopping budget, plus special treats. On the final night of Big Brother the public vote on which housemate they want to win the show. The housemate with most votes wins a fabulous cash prize! In 2011, the series moved networks to Channel 5 and Brian Dowling took over as presenter.

Menopause is the cessation of menstruation for a period of 12 months. Once that period of time is complete, a woman is considered to be post-menopausal, which really only means "after the menopause." There are other ways a woman may become menopausal, aside from experiencing it naturally. If a woman has a partial or full hysterectomy and has had her ovaries removed, she is considered to be post-menopausal after the surgery because she can no longer produce eggs. Sometimes chemotherapy can cause a woman to stop menstruating, but she may resume periods after chemo is complete, meaning that she is not menopausal.
All post-menopausal women are different, each experiencing this particular time of life differently. Some women stop menstruation and that's that. Others have hot flashes for years after they have reached menopause. There is no pat answer and no set pattern other than cessation of menstruation for one year.
So, what does this period of life bring? Years ago a woman was considered old and on her way to the grave when she arrived at menopause. Today's woman is so different. Women who are post-menopause and are grandmothers shy away from being called Granny or Grandmother. They prefer names that don't sound so old. After all, 60 is not old! They say that 60 is the new 50 - still young and active.
Interestingly enough, when men hit "mid-life" they go out and buy themselves a flashy sports car, or leave their wives for a much younger person. Society has casually winked at that. A woman at the same chronological age is categorized by hot flashes and weight gain. Hardly a fair comparison. However, what is really happening is that both men and women at this stage in life are in transition and are reformulating the rest of their lives. Whatever way it manifests, life is a journey and arriving at mid-life is just another bend in the road.
Women in their post-menopausal years are finding themselves, finding their own voice and trying their hand at the things they always wanted to do but felt they couldn't because of family constraints or financial needs. Budding artists, musicians, writers, and actors are appearing on the scene as women find their fulfillment without apologizing. Indeed, the years following menopause can be the best years yet.

Q: Split Spring configuration by modules I'm trying to split workable spring application into logically separated modules. Let's simplify condition and imagine we have only one module BusinessAppConf (this one for user WEB interaction purposes only) and the main Application Context Initializer.
This is a workable scheme but with using static methods to register config classes related to the business module.
The WebApplicationInitializer (web.xml is was replaced by the implementation of this interface)
public class AppInitializer implements WebApplicationInitializer {

    @Override
    @Autowired
    public void onStartup(ServletContext container) throws ServletException {
        AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext context = getContext();
        container.addListener(new ContextLoaderListener(context));

        ServletRegistration.Dynamic mainDispatcher =
                container.addServlet("dispatcher", new DispatcherServlet(context));
        ServletRegistration.Dynamic businessDispatcher =
                container.addServlet("businessDispatcher", BusinessAppConfig.createDispatcherServlet(context));
        ServletRegistration.Dynamic ppaDispatcher =
                container.addServlet("ppaDispatcher", PpaAppConfig.createDispatcherServlet(context));

        initDispatcher(mainDispatcher, 1, "/");
        initDispatcher(businessDispatcher, 2, "/business");
        initDispatcher(businessDispatcher, 3, "/ppa");
    }

    private void initDispatcher(ServletRegistration.Dynamic dispatcher, int loadOnStartUp, String mapping) {
        if (dispatcher == null) {
            System.out.println("Servlet" + dispatcher.getName() + " is already added");
        } else {
            dispatcher.setLoadOnStartup(loadOnStartUp);
            dispatcher.addMapping(mapping);
        }
    }

    public AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext getContext() {
        AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext context = new AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext();
        context.register(MvcConfiguration.class);
        return context;
    }

    @Bean(name = "propertyConfigurer")
    public PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer getPropertyPlaceholderConfigurer() {
        PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer placeholderConfigurer = new PropertySourcesPlaceholderConfigurer();
        placeholderConfigurer.setLocation(new ClassPathResource("common.properties"));
        placeholderConfigurer.setLocation(new ClassPathResource("amazon.S3Storage.properties"));
        placeholderConfigurer.setLocation(new ClassPathResource("local.storage.properties"));
        placeholderConfigurer.setLocation(new ClassPathResource("log4j.properties"));
        placeholderConfigurer.setIgnoreUnresolvablePlaceholders(true);
        return placeholderConfigurer;
    }
}

Business Config module with static methods:
BusinessAppConfig class file
@Configuration
public class BusinessAppConfig {

    public static Servlet createDispatcherServlet(AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext context) {
        context.register(BusinessMvcConfig.class);
        return new DispatcherServlet(context);
    }
}

and
BusinessMvcConfig class config
@Configuration
@EnableAspectJAutoProxy(proxyTargetClass = true)
@ComponentScan(basePackages = {"business"})
@EnableWebMvc
public class BusinessMvcConfig extends WebMvcConfigurationSupport {

    @Bean
    public ViewResolver getViewResolver() {
        InternalResourceViewResolver resolver = new InternalResourceViewResolver();
        resolver.setViewClass(JstlView.class);
        resolver.setPrefix("/WEB-INF/views/");
        resolver.setSuffix(".jsp");
        return resolver;

        return multipartResolver;
    }
}

    emf.setJpaProperties(createStrategy);
    emf.setPackagesToScan("business");
    emf.setJpaVendorAdapter(getJpaVendorAdapter());
    BasicDataSource dataSource = getDataSource();
    emf.setDataSource(dataSource);

    return emf;
}

@Bean
public DatabasePopulator createDatabasePopulator(BasicDataSource dataSource) {
    ResourceDatabasePopulator databasePopulator = new ResourceDatabasePopulator();
    databasePopulator.setContinueOnError(false);
    databasePopulator.addScript(new ClassPathResource("create.sql"));
    DatabasePopulatorUtils.execute(databasePopulator, dataSource);
    return databasePopulator;
}

private JpaVendorAdapter getJpaVendorAdapter() {
    HibernateJpaVendorAdapter jpaVendorAdapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
    jpaVendorAdapter.setShowSql(true);
    jpaVendorAdapter.setGenerateDdl(false);
    jpaVendorAdapter.setDatabasePlatform(env.getProperty("hibernate.dialect"));
    return jpaVendorAdapter;
}

@Bean
public BasicDataSource getDataSource() {
    BasicDataSource basicDataSource = new BasicDataSource();
    basicDataSource.setDriverClassName(env.getProperty("jdbc.driverClassName"));
    basicDataSource.setUsername(env.getProperty("jdbc.username"));
    basicDataSource.setPassword(env.getProperty("jdbc.password"));
    basicDataSource.setUrl(env.getProperty("jdbc.url"));
    basicDataSource.setInitialSize(Ints.tryParse(env.getProperty("connection.init_size")));
    basicDataSource.setMaxIdle(Ints.tryParse(env.getProperty("connection.pool_size")));
    return basicDataSource;
}

@Bean
public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory) {
    return new JpaTransactionManager(entityManagerFactory);
}

}
I don't like that static methods are being used here. It seems incorrect implementations. So, the question is next are these files have been configured properly? If no how it should be configured like?

A: Use AbstractContextLoaderInitializer instead of WebApplicationInitializer because

*

*it registers a ContextLoaderListener for you

*you can use your code for registering dispatcher servlet o onStartu method

*you can override createRootApplicationContext method  to create your root application Context that contains business services and it will be provided to the ContextLoaderListener in your case is BusinessAppConfig

Q: How can I make Redstone respond to a player having no money in their account? I am building a gambling machine on a Bukkit server with the Vault plugin, and I would like to do an error check. When the player wants to play the game, they need to have X dollars in their bank account. If they have less than the amount they want to bet, they should not be able to place a bet.
Is there any way to get a Redstone flag to be true if the player has enough money in their account to place the bet they want to place (or false if they don't)?

A: You sound like you're making a whole new mini-game for a minecraft bukkit server, with a vault compatible economy plugin.
For something like this, I'd recommend using http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/variabletriggers/ to make scripts to complete your desired action.
If you're coding a plugin by hand, and need some help making it, post here.

A: If you are using a players XP as money, the following command in a command block will output a signal if the nearest player has no XP to a comparator:
/testfor @p[l=0]

Alternatively, if you are using the new Scoreboard to keep track of money, you can find if the nearest player has a score of zero in the objective money with this command:

Art is an expression and a special kind of journey for Nancy Ashmead. Her art usually starts with an idea and an impulse that builds in power like a wave as she works on a piece. Like surfing, everything joins together and she is able to ride the wave all the way to shore. But, unlike a surfer, she has a tangible record of the experience when standing on the warm sand after it's over. Join Nancy upstairs in her studio for her show "Art is a Verb".
As always visitors will find galleries, open studios, art, and artists on all three floors of the Art Center. There will also be refreshments and live music.
Live music will be performed by guitarist David Elan Kelley.

Biomarkers make take the form of cellular characteristics, metabolites (e.g. sugars, lipids and hormones), molecular variations, or physical features (e.g., clinical symptoms) and are assessed accordingly, via measurement, annotation, documents, and images.
Increasingly, the discovery of novel biomarkers is closely associated with the advances in molecular biology techniques that can be accessed through analysis of DNA, RNA or proteins.
• Genomic biomarkers: Based on the analysis of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) profiles, especially the analysis of SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms), i.e. identification of punctual variations in genomic DNA.
• Transcriptomic biomarkers: Base on the analysis of RNA expression profiles.
• Proteomic biomarkers: Base on the analysis of the protein profiles.

School History - Part 1 - The 19th Century»
The Catholic Mission in Gravesend founding representative was father Gregory Stasiewicz, a Polish refugee from the Russian Empire. He remained in the town until 1845. His home-cum-chapel from 1843 was at number 87 Windmill Street, Gravesend. With a congregation in excess of 150, the premises proved too small – just room enough for 21 sitting and 20 standing. That same year, 1843, land was bought at Milton Road, Milton. St Gregory's Chapel opened in 1846 with Fr Stasiewicz returning for the opening ceremony. That same year Daniel O'Connell, M.P. visited the town. The Chapel could accommodate a congregation of 250/300 but closed after the purchase of the St John the Baptist Church. Built in 1834 as a Chapel of Ease, the Church reopened after alterations as St John the Evangelist Church in October, 1851.
Fr Michael Driscoll supervised the opening of the first school at 57 Windmill Street in 1858. The first classroom was built in 1859, adjoining the Church and on the same floor. On November 26th, 1860 at the request of Bishop Grant four Sisters of Mercy came to Gravesend from Bermondsey to take charge of the Parish School. They took up residence at 158 Milton Road and taught in the school adjoining which consisted of one classroom. The Sisters acquired 157 Milton Road on a lease in 1876 and a classroom was built above the existing one.
George Matthews Arnold became deeply involved with both the Church and the school. He became the first school secretary, remaining in the post for 40 years. Arnold was Mayor of Gravesend eight times. He was one of the great benefactors of the town and area, an example of his generosity being that he donated two statues of Queen Victoria to the town as well as land near the river for the extension of the Gravesend Promenade and the Gordon Memorial Gardens.
There is no record of the number of students but five years later, in 1864, there were around one hundred. Elizabeth Jane Brabazon in her book, A Month in Gravesend, refers to St John's as a Free School of about 100 scholars, efficient and well organised. A tower to the Church was added by Goldie and Child in 1873. In the decade after, the school was enlarged through the addition of another classroom on top of the lower which dated back to 1859. Smither's Almanac of 1886 refers to St John's as a large and efficient School. As numbers increased classes had to be held in what is now the Church Sacristy, in a small room in the belfry and in the Convent building itself, now a Chinese Restaurant, adjoining the Church. In 1899 the Sisters opened a High School with just two pupils on the roll.
The School Records for April 1889 note that a School-Mistress had been appointed with her salary being £7 10 shillings. The Arnold family at the time was donating £30 annually to the running of the school. In November 1893, the Return of Public Elementary School Attendance noted that there were 119 students and 76 infants on the roll. Four years later, in April 1897 the Inspectors' Report stated that the school is now very full of children, a fact which sometimes mitigates against good teaching. In consequence of the growth of numbers, the staff was supplemented by the appointment of two pupil teachers who were mentioned as being recognised in the Inspector's Report of May, 1896. No reference is made to salary until February, 1899 when the Balance Sheet from the Minutes of Meetings of Managers of St John's School noted they each received seven pounds ten per quarter.
However, the accounts showed a deficit – over £74 in 1890 rising to over £117 in 1898. That said, strenuous efforts were made to keep the school open and expenditure was continually looked at with a view to cutting the deficit.

Twenty-eight years ago, Charlotte and Samantha Quinn's happy small-town family life was torn apart by a terrifying attack on their family home. It left their mother dead. It left their father - Pikeville's notorious defense attorney - devastated. And it left the family fractured beyond repair, consumed by secrets from that terrible night. Twenty-eight years later, and Charlie has followed in her father's footsteps to become a lawyer herself - the ideal good daughter. But when violence comes to Pikeville again - and a shocking tragedy leaves the whole town traumatized - Charlie is plunged into a nightmare. Not only is she the first witness on the scene, but it's a case that unleashes the terrible memories she's spent so long trying to suppress. Because the shocking truth about the crime that destroyed her family nearly 30 years ago won't stay buried forever.
wow!!~! READ THIS BOOK! WOW!
This book had some creative twists and turns. The plot was really creative. I really enjoyed this book but would warn anyone who is going to read it there were a lot of inappropriate scenes and words and some triggers to a couple of different things (I don't feel like I can disclose them without it spoiling the ending of the book).
Slaughter is the queen of cut and paste. (Did you notice how she added nearly 100 pages to this book with copy and paste?) I was annoyed with the use of copy and paste in her series books, so I thought I'd try her stand alone book, and I was shocked at how much was repetition. She does change details in the repeated story of the mother's death, so we can't just skip through even the fifth time she tells is.
Yes it is annoying, and yes, she enjoys the gory and disgusting things she has happen to her characters, but there is still a very good story, and most of the writing is above average. This is NOT suitable for teens of cozy mystery lovers.
I'm puzzled by the other comments on this book saying it was "repetitive" or "redundant". People! The author is showing us stuff we did not know before. It's either stuff that was left out or letting us see an event from another's viewpoint.
This was a very good book, though there are some horrific scenes, some of which are mentioned multiple times as the characters are living and reliving these things day after day. I actually thought that was realistic about the plot. Even though the first scene takes place 28 years earlier than much of the book, its effect remains front and center with the sisters. That felt very real. The 2nd shooting was a bit strange. I felt like we were not given all the evidence. Everyone thought they knew who the shooter was, but what evidence did they base that on? Anyway, even though I figured out who the real shooter was early on, I still enjoyed this book very much. My first book by this author. I think I'll try another of her non-series books.
I was totally engrossed with this thriller from the get go. The opening chapter starts off with a bang and a horrific crime is committed against the Quinn family with devastating and ever lasting consequences. Physically, emotionally and psychologically the two girls, Sam and Charlie, are never the same and still feel and live with the aftermath decades later.
The story alternates between Sam and Charlie during the past and the present. Sam is brought back into Charlie and Rusty's life when a school shooting occurs in their hometown and Charlie is left slightly on the edge by flashbacks and her own haunted memories of that horrific night.
There is something about the author's storytelling that compelled me to keep reading, I was on a quest to find out what really happened that night and how else the Quinn family were affected by Rusty's actions as a lawyer.
In regards to the school shooting. You can see how teenagers and people can be so close minded and cruel. There is no end to the cruelty that taunts and haunts people. I feel bad for the girl, she obviously needs special help but was taken advantage of over and over again. I am glad that Sam and Rusty are there to fight the good fight on her behalf.
Charlie and Sam's lives are turned upside down when their mother is murdered in front of them then the murderers do horrific things to them. Twenty-eight years later, Charlie is involved in another horrific event and Charlie's husband calls Sam home - telling her that her sister needs her. Sam returns home and gets involved in the case - more than she wanted. As the case begins to unfold, Sam and Charlie begin to resolve their differences and work together. A great story that keeps the reader guessing as the plot unfolds. Will be reading more Karin Slaughter books!
I really enjoyed this book. The only thing I would say it there are places where the book is redundant! In those places I tended to skim over the text. But as a whole! I stayed engaged! I have recommended this book to friends and will again!
This was my first Karin Slaughter read and it likely won't be my last. While unbelievably gory at times, I did really enjoy this book. The characters were complicated and interesting. I loved all of the twists and turns. A dark, disturbing, and page-turning thriller.
Another good book by Karen Slaughter. Book was a bit tedious at times, but ended up very well.
I am a big fan of Karin Slaughter and her Grant County and Will Trent series. But this stand alone book was one that I couldn't even finish. So many pointless details that have nothing to do with the story line, I got through 3/4 of the book (I skipped about 100 pages of nonsense and still kept with the storyline like I didn't miss a page) and still had not even gotten to the meat of the book. I have not had good luck reading her few stand alone novels. The story line could have been good if there wasn't so much fluff around the story. Not going to regret not finishing it though.


With each iteration of flagship megaphones, we've improved the battery life, power and ergonomics. This model has 20 watts of power, so your voice will be heard in 1/2 mile range. Comes equipped with Voice and Siren modes. Voice mode amplifies your voice as spoken into the microphone and siren mode amplifies an alert / siren tone through the megaphone's speaker works great for indoors or outdoors. Excellent product.

Q: How to route regular domain entry to secure port 443 using Elastic Beanstalk I have PHP website (will call it awesomedomain.com from now on.) currently load balanced in Elastic Beanstalk with SSL up and running.
I can obtain a secure connection to the site with https://awesomedomain.com/ however whenever I enter "awesomedomain.com" it still connects as unsecure port.
I have two listeners 80 and 443 set-up. How can I route all coming traffic to port 443 for global SSL connection?
Thanks to anyone beforehand.
Cheers,
~bio

A: You can set two ways :

*

*Setup rule is host file :

NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerName abc.example.com
   Redirect permanent / https://abc.example.com/
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost _default_:443>
   ServerName abc.example.com
  DocumentRoot /var/www/html/example
  SSLEngine On
</VirtualHost>

Don't forget to restart server after this changes.

*In .htaccess file :

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off

RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

*If you are using CloudFront and ELB as endpoint for ssl certificate then CloudFront has option to redirect http to https all request.

A: When you just type "awesomedomain.com" the browser automatically adds "http://" to that, and then tries to hit port 80 of that server. Your application has to send a redirect on requests from port 80 to port 443 to force the browser to use SSL. If you are using an application load balancer (ALB), or CloudFront, you can configure the redirect there. Otherwise your server needs to detect the value of the X-Forwarded-Proto header from the load balancer, and issue a redirect if that is not 443.
The method of doing this in Elastic Beanstalk is documented here.


sbobet thai Eden Hazard is entering the peak of his powers and playing very well for Chelsea at the moment. Without any second thought, we all know Hazard is one of the best in the world right now and he's there along with the best. But, does he have what it takes to win the top prize in football like Messi and Ronaldo do? To know more, let's understand his strengths and weaknesses and something about Chelsea too.
Hazard is always criticized for his lack of goal scoring prowess. With a return of 15 goals and 7 assists in Premiere league and Champions League last season in 35 appearances (7 Substitutes) he's not there yet with the games' best yet. But he can certainly get there in Chelsea's current system under Sarri.

But he can certainly get there in Chelsea's current system under Sarri.
Hazard's lowest returns in the past seasons may be due to the systems he mostly played under Mourinho and Conte. Both are defensive minded coaches who mostly deploy counter-attacking tactics. This has even led Hazard to publicly express his discontent and his desire play under more attack-minded coach who was only convinced by Sarri's arrival to continue in Chelsea colours.
Under Sarri, Hazard is given more freedom to roam all over the pitch and he is also free of any defensive duties. He is enjoying his life under the new manager and has already matched half of his goals tally from last campaign (6 Goals). sbobet thai In this current form and under Sarri, Hazard can be one of the best and maybe even the best in the world in the coming years.

I have seen following question, but seems like there is no easy way.
How do I find all "Famous Questions" on StackOverflow?
Is there way to bookmark a page so that the same URL can be used to update data (which will be very seldom) at each hit?

A: You could simply check the list of questions with the most votes:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions?sort=votes
Once you have access to moderator tools on SO, there is a section where you can see questions and answers with "extreme votes".
Additionally, a lot of these very famous questions were eventually deleted. Users with 10k rep can still read them. You can find a list of "Popular deleted questions" here:
https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/73455/popular-deleted-questions-list

A: The greatest hits page is probably the closest built-in mechanism to what you want, except it doesn't take comments into account.  And, of course, closed and deleted questions don't show up, so most of the "famous" SO questions won't show up there.

Singapore FTA, skills' shortages and professionals' movement
By Ravi Ratnasabapathy
The shortages definitely exist, but will foreign workers depress wages to the detriment of locals?
There has been much debate over the liberalisation of services under the Singapore FTA. In particular, the provision of professional services; for example by architects and doctors. Many professional associations have alleged that the FTA will lead to an influx of people who will undercut local professionals or provide substandard services.
In terms of the FTA, these fears are entirely misplaced. As per the Schedule of Specific Commitments (Chapter 7, Annex 7A ) the movement of persons is restricted to intra-firm transfers of specific categories.
This is no different to the provisions currently available under the BOI where a certain number of expat staff are allowed. The movement of professionals outside this limited sphere is closed, hence the question does not arise.
Hypothetically, if the movement of professionals were allowed would Sri Lanka's professionals be worse off? Given the large number of professionals in accountancy, medicine and law who successfully migrate overseas it seems unlikely that the skills levels in general are lacking, hence they have little to fear.
Constraint to growth
While the FTA does not permit the free movement of people, the fact is that the country faces shortages of unskilled and skilled workers which is a constraint to growth. Therefore, the government should formulate a policy to address this problem.
The first survey on labour demand conducted by the Department of Census and Statistics1 reveals that nearly half a million vacancies exist in the private sector (excluding micro enterprises).
Businesses are unable to fill the vacancies due to various reasons including lack of skills, limited education and poor attitudes.
Another survey found consistent evidence of a labour shortage in the manufacturing sector. "Nearly 38 percent of officials in firms interviewed said that they have nine percent of unfilled vacancies and 76 percent of firms with vacancies have taken more than four months to fill them."2
Labour scarcities have an adverse impact on growth, while shortages of skills impacts both productivity and growth. Studies have shown that migration of people, just as international trade does, benefits both the sending country and the receiving country (Van der Mensbrugghe and Roland-Holst 2009)3.
The destination country benefits because immigration increases the supply of labour, which raises employment, production and thus GDP (Ortega and Peri 2009)4.
Complex question
The shortages definitely exist, but will foreign workers depress wages to the detriment of locals? This is a complex question and the impact depends on a combination of factors including the skills of migrants, the skills of workers, and the characteristics of the host economy.
They also differ between the short and long run when the economy and labour demand can adjust to the increase in labour supply.
The immediate short run effects of immigration on the wages and employment of existing workers depend particularly on the extent to which migrants have skills that are substitutes or complements to those of workers (e.g. Borjas 1995).
Where the foreign labour has the same skills as local workers (ie- are substitutes), then, all other things being equal, we may expect that wages will decline. This leaves unaddressed the question of the unfilled vacancies. What is apparent from the surveys is that there are jobs which local workers do not want, for whatever reason. Local workers may be available but are either unsuited or unwilling to take these jobs.
Filling these vacancies with foreign labour will have a minimal impact on local wages and increase overall growth as the firms facing labour shortages grow faster when the labour constraint is removed.
Therefore, a strong case can be made to allow limited migration of workers.
The country should allow migrants to fill labour shortages and meet specialised skill gaps.
As far as skilled migrants are concerned, the skills of migrants will be complementary to those of existing workers, therefore, all workers experience increased productivity which in turn can be expected to lead to a rise in the wages of workers. What of the competence of workers? In the final analysis, decisions on hiring foreign workers, whether skilled or unskilled will be taken at the level of the firm.
Firms do go through a process of screening, but it is only through experience that they will gauge the competence and skills of foreign workers. There will inevitably be individual mistakes and misjudgments but this is a learning process.
If firms find that foreign workers lack competence, they will stop hiring them. What business wants to be saddled with an unproductive worker?

WHO: COVID-19 variant 'XE' appears 10% more contagious than Omicron BA.2
08:42, April 02, 2022
The XE strain is a hybrid of Omicron sub-variants BA.1 and BA.2. /CFP
A new mutant of the novel coronavirus, known as "XE," appears to be about 10 percent more transmissible than the BA.2 sub-variant of Omicron, which is already the most contagious strain known so far, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
The XE, a recombinant strain of two sub-lineages of Omicron, BA.1 and BA.2, still "belongs to the Omicron variant until significant differences in transmission and disease characteristics, including severity, may be reported," the WHO said in its latest weekly epidemiological report released on March 29.
"Early-day estimates indicate a community growth rate advantage of 10 percent as compared to BA.2, however, this finding requires further confirmation," the report said.
The BA.2 sub-variant is now the dominant strain of the coronavirus worldwide, representing nearly 86 percent of all sequenced cases, according to the WHO.
The XE strain was first detected in the UK on January 19, and more than 600 XE cases have been confirmed since then.
Susan Hopkins, chief medical adviser of Britain's Health Security Agency (HSA), said so far there's not enough evidence to draw conclusions about its transmissibility, severity or the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines against them.
The WHO said it will continues to closely monitor and assess the public health risk related with recombinant variants like the XE, and will provide updates as further evidence becomes available.
Other than the XE, the WHO is also monitoring another recombinant variant known as XD, which is a hybrid of Delta and Omicron. It has been found mostly in France, Denmark and Belgium.
No new evidence indicates that the XD is associated with higher transmissibility or more severe outcomes, the WHO wrote.

July 18, 2011, Blogspot – If you have a beach wedding scheduled and a hurricane is in the Gulf of Mexico, we watch the Weather Channel, news, and communicate with me and your lodging arrangements to know what what's going on down here about it.
Usually under hurricane warnings, we all scatter for cover and lodging reservations get canceled. When we are under a hurricane warning, I usually head to Atlanta, Georgia with my family because of my wife's job. She is apart of her companies hurricane evacuation team. Her company operates hospital computer software systems so they will move a portion of their Mobile, Alabama operations to their emergency operation center in Atlanta.
Usually when that happens, beach hotels and realty services are also evacuated so everyone here changes plans and cancels schedules.
What you want to look for is the hurricane's "cone of prediction" to see if your beach area is in that "cone" and if the hurricane appears to be on to the east or west of your wedding location.
If the hurricane is to the east of your wedding location, that's good. It means the strongest winds and potential damage in on the far side, away from your location. If your wedding location is on the east side of the projected hurricane, that's bad.
The key to dealing with hurricanes and wedding planning is just to watch their path and communicate with your vendors at your wedding location.


I followed these instructions, but then I have several problems when compiling in scientific work program.
REVTeX 4-1 shell and support files are now available for download. The self-extracting executable revtex4-1.exe contains the new shell "REVTeX 4-1" that will appear in the Articles shell directory after you expand the contents of the download into your SW install directory. Be sure to overwrite existing files when prompted. The download also includes the REVTeX 4-1 typesetting specification files and an update to the natbib package that was released to support REVTeX 4-1.
My interpretation of the error is that it is unrelated to REVTeX. Can you compile for DVI any document? Use File, New, select from the Standard LaTeX directory the Standard LaTeX Article shell (not the blank one) and then use Typeset, Preview. Does this work or give the same error. If the same error, it implies that the TrueTeX Previewer is missing and you should reinstall the program and use the repair option that will be available.


This proverb does not make a contrast, but shows a progression from bad to worse. Forsaking the way amounts to leaving the path of wisdom and walking in the way evil (Proverbs 2:12-15). He does not like correction but trusts to his own understanding (Proverbs 12:15; 15:5). He progresses to hatred of reproof. This marks a fool as a scorner, or scoffer. This is the hardened end of folly. He hates reproof (Proverbs 9:7-8; 13:1), and inherits the "judgments … prepared for scorners" (Proverbs 19:29; 3:34). Such scorners love and inherit death (Proverbs 8:36; 5:23; 11:7).

Microsoft shuffles more executives
Software giant moves around several more executives as part of its ongoing restructuring of the company.
June 29, 2006 4:56 AM PDT
Microsoft on Wednesday shuffled around several more executives as part of its ongoing restructuring of the company.
In the most significant of the shifts, senior vice president Orlando Ayala will move from his role overseeing sales to small and midsize companies into a new position overseeing emerging market efforts, reporting to Chief Operating Office Kevin Turner. Eduardo Rosini, who headed Microsoft's Asia-Pacific unit, will take over Ayala's role as head of the small and midsize unit, which also oversees Microsoft's partner network.
Meanwhile, Microsoft is moving development of its Dynamics CRM product from its Microsoft Business Solutions unit into the Office Business Platform group headed by Kurt DelBene. Also, marketing for Microsoft's unified communications effort, which was announced earlier this week, will be headed by Chris Capossela, who heads product marketing for Office.
Microsoft said it is still searching for a replacement for MBS head Doug Burgum, who announced plans in November to shift to an evangelist role as chairman of MBS once his successor was found. At the time, Microsoft said it had hoped to have a new executive in place by the spring, however the company has yet to find that person.
The moves are the latest in a series of shifts that has taken place since Microsoft realigned itself into three business units last September.

Home Cannabis How Technology Is Helping To Wipe Marijuana Convictions Off The Books
How Technology Is Helping To Wipe Marijuana Convictions Off The Books

As more and more states jump on the cannabis legalization bandwagon, one sticky problem is slowly being addressed: How does society make things right again for those who were previously convicted of marijuana possession? Individual states — and, indeed, individual cities — have come up with creative ways to solve the issue.
In San Francisco, the historic home of the medical marijuana movement, the district attorney's office is turning to high-tech to erase the crime from the records of War on Drugs victims.
According to a report published in Fast Company, a machine-learning algorithm developed by the nonprofit Code for America "can read through charging documents, identify codes for various crimes, and then automatically determine which felony convictions can be downgraded to a misdemeanor (those who also committed violent crimes, for example, can't have their records downgraded). Then the tool automatically fills out required forms that the district attorney can file with the court."
When Californians overwhelmingly voted in 2016 for the Adult Use of Marijuana Act(Proposition 64), it also meant that citizens with previous non-violent marijuana convictions could petition to have those crimes removed from their criminal record or downgraded to lower-level crimes. But it was a hardship for many Californians because of red tape, bureaucratic hoops — and the need to hire a lawyer to handle the paperwork.

But, thanks to the code for America's algorithm, the city's district attorney's office can quickly scan the records and do the bulk of the heavy lifting.
"If you have a felony conviction, or in many cases, if you have a misdemeanor conviction, there are many employers who will not hire you," George Gascón, San Francisco district attorney, told Fast Company. "There are many landlords that will not allow you to rent or lease a place for them. There are certain types of student loans that you would not qualify because of the felony conviction. So we know that having a felony conviction – for offenses that have been legalized – still holds back a lot of people. Mostly, quite frankly, poor people, and people in communities of color."
Federal government data shows that, although rates of marijuana use are similar in black and white populations, someone who is black is nearly four times as likely to be arrested for possession. In California, until marijuana use was legalized, black people were more than twice as likely to be arrested.
For Gascón, this is a matter of social justice — and just being a good citizen. "There are two major components to reducing the likelihood that people will commit crimes. One is employment and the other one is housing. If you have a steady job and you have housing, you're less likely to engage in other criminal activity."
San Francisco plans to share the program with district attorneys throughout the nation. "This entire system will be put in the public domain so anybody can use it," says Gascón.

The presence of turnip crinkle virus (TCV) in Arabidopsis thaliana plants has previously been shown to suppress the ability of these plants to produce a hypersensitive response (HR) upon inoculation with pathogens that would normally elicit this defense response. The ecotype Colombia-0 was examined using wildtype TCV and non-pathogenic strains of Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea Race 4 containing virulence genes avrRpt2, avrRpm1 and avrRps4. Transgenic lines of A. thaliana that express the TCV proteins p8, p9 or CP were also examined in an attempt to determine if these proteins play a role in suppression of the HR. Crosses of these transgenic lines were made in order to determine if binary combinations of these proteins were sufficient for HR suppression. In addition, assays were completed to determine if the inhibition of the HR correlated with suppression of resistance to the virulent Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola ES4236 avrRpt2 growth in the plant. Finally, PR-1 protein expression was inspected by visual and quantitative GUS reporter gene assays to determine if TCV also played a role in inhibition of the plants ability to develop systemic acquired resistance (SAR).
