BASIC OPPORTUNITY
Considerations on funding UBI in Britain
The RSA (Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce) published a discussion paper on UBI. ANTHONY PAINTER outlines some key points here, including some thoughts on funding:
"To fund the 'Universal Basic Opportunity Fund' (UBOF), the Government would finance an endowment to cover the fund for 14 years from a public debt issue (at current low interest rates). This endowment would be invested to both fund asset growth and public benefit. The fund could be invested in housing, transport, energy and digital infrastructure and invested for high growth in global assets such as equity and real estate. This seems radical but actually, similar mechanisms have been established in Norway, Singapore and Alaska. In the latter case, Basic Income style dividends are paid to all Alaskans. Essentially, the UBOF is a low-interest mortgage to invest in infrastructure and human growth that brings forward the benefits of a sovereign wealth fund to the present rather than waiting for it to accumulate over time."
Full paper is available here. And here is the longer section on "The technicalities of a Universal Basic Opportunity Fund," including building and administering the fund. ht Lauren

FAIRNESS COMMON GROUND
The surge of digital ethics courses
"As data-driven decisions increasingly affect every corner of our lives, there is an urgent need to ensure they do not become instruments of discrimination, barriers to equality, threats to social justice, and sources of unfairness." That's from a paper co-authored by Solon Barocas, making the case for "a concrete research agenda" on algorithmic decision-making and civil rights. Full paper here. ht Margarita
Universities are responding to this need with new digital ethics courses. Natasha Singer writes for the NYTimes: "…In the wake of fake news and other troubles at tech companies, universities that helped produce some of Silicon Valley's top technologists are hustling to bring a more medicine-like morality to computer science." Link.
For more on the specifics of these courses, here is a crowd-sourced spreadsheet of 140 tech ethics courses (and counting), including syllabi. Link. This page has the same information sorted with a few trend-revealing charts (by university, by department, etc.). ht Casey Fiesler
Director of Research Jay Hodges comments:
It's incredibly exciting to see the growing energy around the ethics of algorithms. But the article by Barocas, Bradley, Honavar, and Provost recognizes what I see as a core challenge in the still-nascent field:
"The difficulty of cross-disciplinary collaboration has already led to a rather troubling pattern in work on civil rights and data science. Critical writing often struggles to recognize how machine-learned systems differ from other types of formalized decision-making and how these differences introduce novel dangers for civil rights, only some of which can be effectively addressed with standard policy instruments. Likewise, data science researchers concerned with civil rights have tended to tackle issues of fairness as if such weighty topics have not already received considerable attention in law, social science, and philosophy."
Briefly reviewing the proposed materials of the most prominent courses (caveat: I haven't read all of them!) confirms the existence of this gap. Virtually every discipline that deals with the social world – including, among others, sociology, social work, history, women's studies, Africana studies, Latino/a studies, urban studies, political science, economics, epidemiology, public policy, and law – addresses questions of fairness and justice in some way. Yet the knowledge accumulated by these fields gets very little attention in these syllabuses. Even ethics and political philosophy, where questions of justice are at the core of the discipline, get short shrift: glancing at the Harvard/MIT syllabus, for instance, I see only a couple of articles by well-known philosophers (Floridi and Searle), neither of whom are ethicists or political philosophers; this despite that MIT has a renowned philosophy department that has housed some of the most influential thinkers in questions of social justice (John Rawls and Judith Thomson, for starters), and Harvard's department is legendary, with some of the most important minds in the field on its faculty (including Christine Korsgaard, Tommie Shelby, Amartya Sen, and (until very recently) Tim Scanlon).
Barocas et al. point to a number of challenges that explain this lack, chief among them that simply bringing existing disciplines and competencies together isn't enough, because the common ground between them is so small: "Future investment in research should foster collaborations that do more than put different communities in contact; investment should support the training necessary to cultivate a future generation of researchers who are simultaneously expert in both fields." I think, though, that this is too pessimistic a remedy. At JFI, we've been lucky to find research fellows who are domain experts, but not just domain experts. These are researchers willing (and even excited) to move beyond their training: data scientists who want to discuss philosophical ethics, and philosophers who want to get their hands dirty with TensorFlow. So while I agree wholeheartedly with the need to train future generations of brilliant polymaths, I also think there's room to hope for, and work towards, a more proximate solution: cultivating existing researchers eager to learn new tools.

CARBON COST
Carbon tax, cap and trade, and what to do with the revenues
More state governments are moving towards instituting carbon taxes, such as the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initative by a group of Eastern states. Link to an overview in the NYTimes.
Jesse Jenkins, a researcher quoted in the article, responds on Twitter:
"Political concerns about the impact of carbon prices on households, energy consuming businesses or fossil fuel producers routinely constrain carbon prices the world over well below the full damages from CO2 emissions—the so-called social cost of carbon. My research with [Valerie Karplus] demonstrates that when political constraints limit carbon prices, how you use the resulting revenues is the key to improving economic efficiency and environmental efficacy of carbon pricing policies."
Link to the Jenkins/Karplus paper. The detailed paper addresses metrics questions (how to measure the social cost of carbon?), and concludes with some policy recommendations which acknowledge that different regions will have different constraints:
"…Using revenues to offset consumer and producer surplus loss supports a return to optimal CO2 price levels and a first-best solution—provided compensatory transfers are frictionless and consumers and producers do not exhibit loss aversion... In reality, however, none of the transfers discussed here are likely to be frictionless. It is important therefore to also understand the real and perceived value of these transfers to recipients and the general equilibrium implications of changes in government revenues."
Another approach appearing in the news is "cap and dividend": The Healthy Climate and Family Security Act was introduced in the House and Senate recently (though its chance of passage at the moment is zero), and combines climate and UBI. "It caps fossil fuels, requires energy companies to purchase pollution permits at auction, and returns all the auction revenue in equal amounts to every U.S. resident with a valid Social Security number." More about the bill.
However, this 2017 study from Yale suggests that the proposal might not be the public's favorite option:
"Regarding the tax revenues [from a carbon tax], Americans are most in support of using the money to invest in clean energy and infrastructure. There is relatively less support for reducing income or payroll taxes, returning dividends to households, and other expenditure categories."
And Jesse Jenkins's thread continues with several notes of skepticism about the idea, including "Dividends only go to households/individuals which are about 1/3 of energy use and probably least organized politically."
Dave Grossman also entered the conversation. Here's a HuffPost article with his main ideas: "The key is to remember that what is done with carbon price revenues can matter just as much as the carbon price itself." And here's a paper on the same topic by Grossman and a colleague at the Climate Law & Policy Project.
Charting fuel subsidies in 157 countries: "First, the price you pay at the pump in most countries is higher than the global benchmark price of fuel, i.e., most countries are net taxers—not subsidizers of fuel. As it turns out, 95 percent of global fuel subsidies are concentrated in just 22 countries, all of which are also oil exporters." Link.

On the "Shared Mobility Principles": " 'If you were Uber and Lyft, of course this is what you would embrace, right?' he asks. 'If you think the car of the future is coming, and you are in that business, it's not surprising that you would embrace principles that suggest that the new car should only be used in a manner consistent with your business model.'" Link. A response from the Observational Epidemiology blog: "Doesn't this create perverse incentives to make public transportation less effective, via lobbying for weaker bus service, especially if AVs become more standard?" Link.
What happened when Australia automated its welfare system: "Things changed in December 2016, when the government announced that the system had undergone full automation. Humans would no longer investigate anomalies in earnings. Instead, debt notices would be automatically generated when inconsistencies were detected. The government's rationale for automating the process was telling. 'Our aim is to ensure that people get what they are entitled to—no more and no less,' read the press release. 'And to crack down hard when people deliberately defraud the system.'" Link. ht Sara

Social scientists should also consider the possibility that the proponents of work requirements or wellness programs have no interest at all in their effectiveness." Link.

We develop Hispanic marketing strategies, including social media, culture, SEO, conversion, Pinterest & grassroots marketing, which target key Latino audiences via proper market segmentation, always zeroing in the heart of the target consumer and with outstanding revenue results.
We define acculturation as the process of incorporating or acquiring of a new culture without foregoing another one, and assimilation as learning or adopting a new culture by replacing or denying the previous one. How does the Hispanic market Acculturate?
Acculturation level does not equate with technological sophistication. The difference between the online Hispanic and the offline Hispanic is more highly tied to country of origin and, more specifically, to educational levels in their country of origin.
Therefore, you will find that a non-acculturated 39 year-old Latino engineer who arrived six months ago from Colombia will communicate and interact online more than offline. She will keep in touch with his family and friends via Facebook and Skype and she will read news from her country on the online version of Colombia's newspapers. She would be then classified as a technologically savvy unacculturated Hispanic.
Hispanic millennials are at the forefront of the multicultural frontier. These Multicultural consumers have blended into the population but retain their own cultural traits, behaviors and desires that influence their responses, purchasing and loyalty.
They require even more insight and understanding of the cultural and ethnic nuances and differences that drive behavior and purchase.
Hispanic Marketing Strategy Online or Offline?
Hispanics are online a lot – and get their information from friends and from other people's opinions, they trust other people's ratings of products and services. And they believe that the internet enhances their lives.
This is not a huge leap given how it already improved their lives by enabling affordable and constant communication with their families and friends. And this is only one area of their lives.
This makes Search and Social Media a perfect way for them to find you.
You just have to understand what motivates them and find innovative and relevant ways to connect with them.
Do you want to be there when they look for you?
Do you have a product or service that helps the Hispanic community?
Then Grassroots is a great fit for you.
Grassroots marketing helps you generate positive buzz or word of mouth and grow your business exponentially.

This multi-national office products company needed to establish pricing strategies under hyper-inflation conditions (inflation levels of up to 4000% per year, and interest rates that ranged from 70% to 230% a month) with government price freezes while importing products from the U.S. and other Latin American countries.
A corporate customer persona was developed and insights obtained about this persona's most pressing inner needs.
The understanding and proper segmentation of the customer base, led to the development of a new pricing strategy at a higher price point than the existent ones but offering a benefit that satisfied those inner needs.

I have always believed that education is the foundation upon which all things are built. It translates passion into potential, and transforms today's students into tomorrow's leaders. When given access to the teachers and tools to unleash their potential, intellectually curious minds can achieve what was once considered impossible. Generation after generation have proven this to be true.
FDR once said, "we cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future." To fulfill our responsibility to the next generation, I believe we have a responsibility to invest in our schools and the hard-working educators dedicated to unleashing the next generation's full potential.
Growing up in a small town in West Virginia, I was the beneficiary of a community and a school system that was dedicated to preparing its youth for the future. My second grade teacher in particular, Mrs. Judy Scott Gray, quite honestly changed my life. She had a way of making every student feel special. Every day she taught us to be the best version of ourselves, and not to try to be anyone else. Every day since, I've gotten out of bed and tried to be the best version of myself that I can possibly be. I carried this outlook with me from elementary school through college and beyond, and my passion for education only grew.
West Virginia is full of incredibly dedicated and passionate teachers like Mrs. Gray, and unbelievably curious children with big dreams. But like many school systems and states across the nation, budget challenges often lead to tough trade-offs and cut-backs that require teachers to improvise. The creativity of great teachers never ceases to amaze me. I remember being a student in my high school astronomy class, heading out to the football field, and laying on our backs with home-made cardboard telescopes to map the stars because we couldn't afford the real thing. Teachers are often dipping into their own personal funds to supplement their classroom budgets, which breaks my heart and inspires me at the same time.
A few years back, a friend introduced me to DonorsChoose.org. Living in California, I was excited to learn that I had the ability to choose a teacher and classroom project from my home state, and could help a West Virginia teacher get what they needed for their classroom. It gave me the chance to "pay it forward" and assist that teacher in providing the tools to help the next generations' dream come true. So when I was offered this opportunity to participate in this campaign, Alys (my wife) and I knew immediately that we were all in.
This opportunity connects our passion for education with my deep gratitude and love for my home state of West Virginia, allowing us to fulfill the dreams of some very deserving teachers and students.
In honor of awesome teachers everywhere, Alys and I are honored and proud to fund 100% of the DonorsChoose school project across my home state of West Virginia. We want all of the teachers to know how much we appreciate what they do each and every day to prepare students for the future, and for the next generation to understand that anything is possible with a great education.

The terms that you agree when you go into a refinancing arrangement can be crucial in determining whether you will ever be able to pay the loan and under what terms you choose to pay the load. There is a particular concern about the interest rates.
This article will highlight some of the issues you need to be weary of when trying undertake a refinancing process. Research can be helpful, whether you use an online source like lovemoney, consulting a mortgage magazine or talking to an independent financial advisor (IFA). It is important you do not make any rash decisions. If you do not exercise appropriate caution you can end up losing your home and being saddled with an unfunded debt.
Be wary of the interest rate. Try to establish the fluctuation and the variation over time. You might be induced into a seemingly good deal but then after a certain period you go back to a very stringent system when you have already made a commitment. Even the fixed interest deals are not always to your advantage. You could end up being locked into a fixed interest arrangement to such an extent that you are unable to take advantage of low interest deals when they come along.
Remember that the banks have their own self interest. Do not assume that because they are being polite and pleasant to you, it follows that they will always have your interest at the heart of their operations. If they are given a choice between making a good deal for themselves and a bad deal for you, they will always choose the former.
Take advice from people who have knowledge of both the refinancing system and the banking system in general. There are a number of financial advisers who are attached to the banks and they have a system to ensure their impartiality. However you also have the option of getting your own private financial adviser. The costs might be somehow high but they could save you from financial ruin, in case if something went wrong.
The contractual elements of the refinancing package can be quite challenging to understand, especially if you do not have any sort of legal background. That is why you need to have some sort of advice so that you can mitigate some of the vagaries of the contract.
Remember that refinancing will put you further in debt with your lender and they may change the rules to make them even more stringent than they were before. If you have the opportunity to improve your payment terms, you will need to make sure that you take that opportunity. It is rare that you will have the chance to renegotiate a loan agreement.
Look at the distress clauses in the payment terms. You need to make allowance for the fact that even with the best will in the world. Ask what options you have for renegotiating for better terms in the loan contract and how far the lender can go in terms of trying to recover the money. This is not about anticipating failure but about recognizing that you need to protect yourself for every eventuality.

Vanessa George Child Pornography
Nursery paedophile Vanessa George could spend a life of anonymity at taxpayers' expense to protect her for vigilante attacks.
Twenty-four hours after the full extent of her sick crimes became public, the 39-year-old former classroom assistant has become a national hate figure, with internet sites calling variously for her to be killed or 'cut to pieces'.
And on Facebook there are already more than 100 groups calling for her to be hanged or killed behind bars.
One mother, whose child she fears was abused, has said: 'We just want to skin her and roll her in salt.
'We just feel so frustrated that we cannot get to her.'
The nursery worker and two accomplices have pleaded guilty to carrying out a string of sex attacks on children as young as 18 months old.
Vanessa George, admitted seven counts of sexual abuse and six counts of distributing and making indecent pictures of children.
She committed the crimes at Little Ted's nursery in Plymouth, where she worked.
The full details of the charges the nursery worker admitted are too graphic to report.
They describe the most depraved and degrading of sexual assaults, perpetrated on the most vulnerable of victims.
The children in George's photographs have never been identified.
By analysing electronic references stored within the images, detectives have been able to work out roughly when the pictures were taken.
With the assistance of a consultant pediatrician, they have also estimated the ages of the children involved.
By cross-referencing nursery records, they have narrowed down to 30 the number of families who would have had children of the right age, at the relevant time, in the care of George.
Co-defendants Angela Allen and Colin Blanchard also admitted a string of charges relating to assault and child pornography.
Allen, 39, (pictured above) pleaded guilty to four child sex assaults and one count of distributing an indecent image.
The unemployed single mother from Nottingham wept as she stood in the dock.
Blanchard, also 39, pleaded guilty to 17 child pornography counts and two sexual assaults on children.
It can also be revealed that Blanchard, who was married and had a young daughter, had been on the sex offenders register.
Sky News West of England correspondent Katie Stallard said there had been no suggestion of any financial motivation or coercion.
"The abuse was carried out solely for the sexual gratification of George and her two co-defendants," Stallard said.
"The three apparently first met on Facebook last year, but never actually met until they were led together into the dock at Bristol Crown Court.
"The trio traded thousands of explicit email and text messages detailing horrific fantasies of child sex abuse.
"Often they would share photos of the assaults, which were taken on their mobile phones."
One detective told Sky News they appeared to be engaged in a macabre contest to see who could come up with the most depraved idea.
Sky News has also learned George - who is married with two teenage children - even discussed with one of her accomplices the possibility of abducting a child.
Sources have said the nursery worker emailed Blanchard detailing a visit to a railway station's public toilets, where she had seen a little boy standing on his own.
She is said to have written: "It would have been the perfect opportunity to snatch him".
Blanchard reportedly replied asking whether she would drug children for him.
Police have said they will now never know whether this was pure fantasy, or the beginnings of a plan.
At Bristol Crown Court, Mr Justice John Royce urged George to reveal who her victims were.
Addressing her counsel, he said: "Your client must know, it seems to me, who she has abused and who she has not.
"If I were a parent, I would want to know whether my child was abused or not.
"Would it not be decent for her to indicate who she has abused? It is a factor that I have got to take into account."
The Crown Prosecution Service's head of complex casework, Ann Reddrop, said identifying the abused children remained a priority for police.
Angry parents at the courthouse
"The victims may be too young to understand, but their families will have to live with the effects."
The trio will be sentenced on November 13.

Can you guys believe this? A woman, a mother... molesting young children? You would think ONLY very sick men carried out such dastardly acts. What is a woman doing molesting 18 months old babies? What is going on in our world?

Have I Forced The Wisconsin Vs. Nebraska Football Game To Get Scheduled For Primetime?
(Photo by Dylan Buell/Getty Images)
David Hookstead Smoke Room Editor-in-Chief
Ladies and gentlemen, I might have successfully forced Wisconsin's football game against Nebraska to become primetime television.
A few days ago, I pointed out the fact it's laughable to believe Nebraska is in a better position to win the Big Ten West than Wisconsin, which is a fact beyond debate.
In the days since, it's literally all anybody in the world of Big Ten football has been talking about. It's dominating the college football scene. (RELATED: Will Jack Coan Or Graham Mertz Start At Quarterback For The Wisconsin Badgers?)
A post shared by Wisconsin Football (@badgerfootball) on May 22, 2019 at 9:04am PDT
Look no further than the hundreds of pissy Nebraska fans in my Twitter mentions if you need proof of that fact.
There's one very obvious question that now surrounds the situation. Have I forced ESPN or Fox to broadcast the game November 16 in primetime?
It's now the one game every Nebraska fan in the country has circled on the calendar, and with two large fanbases now at each other's throats, I think that's exactly what's going to happen.
Ratings might never get higher!
A post shared by Graham Mertz (@graham_mertz5) on Apr 5, 2019 at 11:44am PDT
Before I started (and won) a fight with the entire state of Nebraska, this was just a mid-level game for the Badgers, despite it being the Super Bowl of the schedule for the Cornhuskers. Now, we're ready for war.
Too many words have been said, there's been too much trash talk, too many people are on edge and it'll all be the sweeter now when Wisconsin beats the living hell out of Nebraska.
A post shared by Wisconsin Football (@badgerfootball) on Apr 19, 2019 at 8:25am PDT
This is the game of the century for the Cornhuskers, and they still won't get close. It's borderline poetic. You can all thank me later when the game gets broadcast under the lights. Am I hero? We can let the debate on that begin when we drink beers in victory in November.

The following is from The Cromford Report. I find it very interesting and I wanted to share it with you. There are so many rumors thrown around. The Cromford Report is a well respected analysis group here in the Phoenix metro area that has a strong record of real estate analysis.
I ask you to resist in believing in rumor. I ask that you resist spreading rumor. Follow the numbers. Look at the history. We try to bring you data that makes a difference to our home buyers and home sellers so they can make informed decisions. Another Phoenix Housing Bubble?
April 11 – It's hard not to notice the plethora of silly articles suggesting the Greater Phoenix housing market is in another bubble, or that prices are soon going to fall. There are a variety of theories but they can all be seen as bogus when examined carefully.
The population of Maricopa and Pinal Counties is growing much faster than the housing stock – this is fundamental, yet is hardly ever mentioned.
Prices are being driven up by a chronic lack of supply, not by excess demand. Demand is close to normal. Bubbles always have excessive demand from foolish trend followers.
Prices are still at the same level as 9 years ago. They still have a lot of room to increase yet.
Most buyers are putting their own money in with cash or large deposits, not borrowing it all from foolish lenders as in 2004 and 2005.
Lenders are still being ultra cautious. Demand could increase if they ease up.
Investors are mostly buying to rent and filling their homes quickly with tenants – if and when these landlords sell it is a neutral event for the market – one extra home becomes available and one extra family needs a home to live in.
If investors started to sell off the small number of empty rentals it would slightly improve our market balance, not create a glut of supply.
There are several major long term obstacles for developers trying to increase the supply of new homes. Shortage of labor and affordable, accessible land are just the first two.
We have a low vacancy rate both in homes for rent and for sale. Multiple generations and even multiple families are sharing single homes.
No bubble has ever occurred in the same market twice in the same generation. However after a recent bubble everyone is hyper-sensitive to every price increase and numerous false cries of "bubble" are par for the course.
Given the unprecedented imbalance we now have between population growth and new home building, we have several years of rising prices in front of us. How fast and how high they rise I cannot tell, but the idea that prices could fall significantly in the near term because of excess supply is foolish. The only circumstance that could unravel things is a sudden collapse in demand caused by people leaving Central Arizona in droves. Far more likely is a surge in demand from both people and companies deciding to migrate from California. Compared to most of California, housing in Central Arizona is still ridiculously affordable even if interest rates were to double.
Nobody has a good track record of predicting mortgage interest rates, but in any case multiple studies have shown no significant statistical correlation between homes prices and interest rates. So when interest rates eventually rise, as they surely must one day, this is as likely to increase demand as it is to decrease it. This event would definitely decrease affordability, but we note that one of the times of highest demand (February 2005) was also a time of very low affordability. In fact large numbers of people signing up for mortgages they could not afford was the key characteristic of the February 2005 market.
Wow, that is interesting stuff. Certainly contrary to what many local news outlets would have you believe.


Peter Henry's TechTidBits (Blog) - Logging Enhancements for Log4net!
Two days ago I wrote about Log4net, a very cool logging utility which will cut hours/days off your development schedule! Yes, it's that cool! Well, today, I had another epiphany! Thanks to SG!
Today, while debugging my webapp using VS and Log4net, I realized it was a bit of a PITA to have to goto another program (Notepad++) to view my log file. Notepad++ does a great job of viewing a log file and automagically recognizing when a file's changed and require's reloading, but there has to be a better way!
SG and I were talking over coffee (most great discussions are over coffee LOL) and he mentioned about how Log4net can do multiple destinations for logging! HUH? What's that you ask? JUUUUUUUUUUUUUst like delegates, you have have the same "event" or log message goto multiple places, like your event listeners. WOW!!!!!!!! That's cool! And more over, you can target your logging, like having your INFO messages goto your log file, and ERRORS goto a DB and email, and your FATAL messages goto a networked drive and email. VERY POWERFUL.
So without further adieu, here's a sample I'm currently using with VS08 which logs DEBUG, INFO and WARNings to VS' debug output window in one format (no need to see the line number and filename when it's just information) and when ERRORs or FATAL exceptions are logged, the offending filename and line number are logged as well. This is truely cool IMHO!
You might be wondering why I'm using the DebugAppender and not the other OutputDebugStringAppender, it's cause the former will output directly to the VS Output Window instead of to the debug system where you would need another tool to view. Personal choice, I'm in VS, I'm looking at the output window anyways, so why not? Some people like the other app way of viewing the logging messages, more information viewable, kind of like the old UNIX tail program.
So, now that you're MUCH more efficient at logging, it's time to go grab a coffee and get coding!

It's a good practice to include a little of your outdoor surroundings with your indoor projects.
Q: My husband and I are lucky to retire in a small house in a seaside community. We plan to remodel the kitchen and wanted to ask about decorating choices that blend in with our surroundings. Can you please give us some ocean-inspired kitchen ideas?
For a seaside community, make the kitchen sink your anchor point by installing a strong-looking sink with a theme. I suggest cast iron because of the wide range of natural color choices that are available.
Pick a color that expresses how you feel about your area. Some ocean-theme colors to consider include sea salt (white finish with little textured salt specks), sandbar (for a weathered gray look) and caviar (a dark rich caviar-egg color).

Results of Nationwide Aquarium Investigation
Animals in Captivity, Campaign, Return to the Ocean
aquarium, dolphin, Geoje Sea World, Hotpink Dolphins, Jeong Mi Lee, KAWA, Korean Animal Welfare Association
On March 29th, CARE, in collaboration with congresswoman Jeong Mi Lee, Hotpink Dolphins, and the Korean Animal Welfare Association (KAWA), held a press conference to present the results of the nationwide aquarium investigation.
A joint investigation consisting of representatives from the office of Jeong Mi Lee, CARE, KAWA, Hotpink Dolphins, and other animal rights organizations, and the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, investigated the health, living conditions and management of 40 dolphins in eight aquariums around South Korea from the February 22nd to March 3rd.
This was the first investigation into captive marine mammal welfare and living conditions since they started to be displayed in South Korea in 1984.
Major Findings of the Investigation
The water tanks in which the animals were kept and displayed were generally small.
Although the overall area of water tanks fulfilled legal requirements (a surface area of 84 square meters and a depth of 3.5 meters), the area alloted to individual animals ranged from surface areas of 16 to 38 square meters, well below the legal requirement. This is because the current law regulates only the gross tank area in which the animal is kept, and not the area of the tank which the animal has to itself.
The conditions do not come close to emulating any aspect of the animals' natural habitats.
For example, in Geoje Sea World, where six whales have died in the last two years, water is pumped directly into the tanks from coastal areas. Beluga whales live in the Arctic and sub-Arctic oceans where temperatures are between 8°C and 14°C. Summer temperatures in southern South Korea can reach as high as 40°C, and as there is no shade provided for some of the belugas and the pools are not deep enough for them to escape surface temperatures, this constitutes a completely unsuitable environment for them, resulting in severe health problems.
Stereotypical stress behaviors, such as repeated jumping was observed from the dolphins. It is well known that these behaviors are shown by captive animals in zoos and other places where their freedom of movement and interaction is taken away.
Management system were inadequate.
Only five among the eight aquariums investigated has a resident vet. At the aquariums where there was no vet, the manager or other non-qualified person administered health care. Some aquariums did not have a procedural manual for responses to health-risk situations, such as red algae blooms or changes to water salinity. At Jangsaengpo Special Whale Culture Zone, where a dolphin imported from Taiji, Japan died in February of 2017, there was no aquarium management manual at all.
At the press conference, Jeong Mi Lee stated that
The facilities have been managed so badly, yet the government has neglected them for several decades.
The Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries are responsible for facilities that breed and and look after endangered marine species in accordance with the Wildlife Protection Act, yet they have neglected aquarium management. The reason given is that the regulations related to aquarium management are not clear.
Artists rendering of what a coastal dolphin sanctuary could look like.
This investigation was hampered by many aquariums rejecting requests to submit their data, and completing maintenance and management logs incorrectly, inadequately, or not at all.
In spite of the gaps in the information, the results clearly show that dolphins in aquariums in South Korea are living in very poor conditions, and the noncommittal attitude of the government has contributed to a lack of supervision of aquariums leading to mismanagement and incompetence.
ambienpro.com is considered one of the most effective modern means for insomnia, but personally it suits me a little, and I use it only in extreme cases – when I need to sleep, and there are no buyambienmed.com other pills.
We ask that at the very least the government clarifies and strengthens its regulations regarding captive marine mammals, and regularly checks, inspects, and supervises these facilities in the future.
Ideally, we demand that government ban the importation of dolphins, whales, and other Cetaceans into South Korea.
Return to the Ocean
Unfortunately, the 43 dolphins currently captive in aquariums cannot be returned to the ocean, where they risk being captured again. Most of them are from Taiji, Japan.
Therefore, in collaboration with other animal rights and environmental organizations in Korea, we are going to set up an ocean sanctuary for dolphins.
The ocean is where they live, and the ocean is where they should be returned to.

Street Level Construction Underway on 19-Story, 72-Unit Mixed-Use Project, 2230 Broadway, Upper West Side
6:30 am on September 2, 2016 By Reid Wilson
Construction is now at street level on the 19-story, 72-unit mixed-use building under development at 2230 Broadway, located on the corner of West 80th Street on the Upper West Side. The construction progress can be seen thanks to photos posted to the YIMBY Forums. The latest building permits indicate a 123,456-square-foot, 206-foot-tall tower is in the works. It will have 22,231 square feet of commercial-retail space across the ground floor and two cellar levels, followed by residential units on the second through 18th floors. The units should average 1,609 square feet apiece, which means condominiums are likely in the works. Friedland Properties is the developer and Stephen B. Jacobs Group is behind the architecture. Completion is scheduled for the first half of 2018.
Three-Story, 18,400-Square-Foot Mixed-Use Commercial Project Filed at 2311 West 7th Street, Gravesend
Brooklyn-based property owner Shun Wu has filed applications for a three-story, 18,427-square-foot mixed-use commercial building at 2311 West 7th Street, in southern Gravesend. The ground floor will host 3,338 square feet of commercial-retail space, followed by 5,228 square feet of medical offices across the second and third floors. A 29-car parking garage will be located on two underground levels. Sugnam Chang's Brooklyn-based Basic Groups Corp. is the architect of record. The irregularly-shaped, 73-foot-wide, 4,410-square-foot plot is currently vacant. The 86th Street stop on the N train and the Avenue X stop on the F train are both two blocks away.
Exterior Completion Near for 25-Story Mixed-Use Building at 237 East 34th Street, Murray Hill
4:30 pm on September 1, 2016 By Evan Bindelglass
About two years ago, an old Yeshiva University lecture hall in Murray Hill, on the East Side of Manhattan, bit the dust. Now, completion of its replacement is not far off.
Foundation Work Underway on 16-Story, 11-Unit Mixed-Use Project at 1010 Park Avenue, Upper East Side
2:00 pm on September 1, 2016 By Reid Wilson
Excavation is complete and foundation work is now underway on a 16-story, 11-unit mixed-use building, technically listed as an expansion of the Park Avenue Christian Church's five-story rectory. The address is 1010 Park Avenue, between East 84th and 85th streets on the Upper East Side. A photo of the site was posted to Twitter by the church's neighbor, Regis High School. The project will measure 59,398 square feet and will incorporate some elements of the original rectory's façade into its facade. The ground floor and two sub-cellar levels will be used by the church, and condominium units, averaging an opulent 5,043 square feet apiece, will take up the floors above. Extell Development Company is the developer and Beyer Blinder Belle is behind the architecture. A construction timeline is not currently known. Since the site sits within the Park Avenue Historic District, the Landmarks Preservation Commission had to approve the project, which happened in January of 2015.
Developer Closes on Site of Planned 14-Story, 47-Unit Mixed-Use Project at 211 Schermerhorn Street, Downtown Brooklyn
About a year ago, Chelsea-based GPB Capital Holdings entered into contract to acquire the development site at 211-215 Schermerhorn Street, in Downtown Brooklyn. Now, the entity has finally closed on the purchase for $30 million, Commercial Observer reported. The developer plans to build a 14-story, 47-unit mixed-use building at the site, as reported by YIMBY when filings were submitted earlier this year. The latest permits indicate the project will encompass 93,184 square feet. There will be 5,372 square feet of retail space across the ground and cellar levels, followed by residential units above. The units will be condominiums, averaging 1,464 square feet apiece. Morris Adjmi Architects is the architect of record. The 7,556-square-foot assemblage is currently vacant.
Supertall 111 West 57th Street Rises Seven Stories in Midtown
8:00 am on September 1, 2016 By Evan Bindelglass
Centered just below Central Park's southern edge, super-slender supertall 111 West 57th Street will probably be iconic before it is even finished. Of course, that won't be for a couple of years. However, some visible progress is being made at the construction site in Midtown.
13-Story, 240-Unit Mixed-Use Building Tops Out at 3 Journal Square Plaza, Jersey City
Construction has topped out on the 13-story, 240-unit mixed-use building under development at 3 Journal Square Plaza, in Jersey City's Journal Square section. Photos of the structure were recently posted to the YIMBY Forums. Dubbed The Residences at 3 Journal Square and revealed by YIMBY roughly a year ago, it will encompass 219,446 square feet. There will be retail space and residential amenities on the ground floor, followed by rental apartments above. Known amenities include a four-level underground parking garage, which the project was built atop, and a rooftop terrace. Hartz Mountain and Panepinto Properties are the developers. Marchetto Higgins Stieve Architects is the design architect and the Childs Dreyfus Group is responsible for the interiors. Tocci Building Companies is managing construction. Completion can probably be expected by the end of the year.
730-Unit Mixed-Use Project Proposed at 2460 Second Avenue, East Harlem
The New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) has released preliminary plans, ahead of a presentation set to be given later in September, to develop a 1.1-million-square-foot mixed-use project at 2460 Second Avenue, in northern East Harlem. The city-owned property, currently a vacant 105,000-square-foot former bus depot, was the site of a church and a slave burial ground during the 17th century, Commercial Observer reported. The redevelopment would include a 15,000-square-foot living memorial and cultural center in honor those who were buried there. The rest of the project could include 730 rental apartments, half of which would rent at below-market rates. In addition, the plan calls for 315,000 square feet of commercial space, including retail and offices, and 30,000 square feet for community facilities. It would be accommodated by a 300-car parking garage and 18,000 square feet of outdoor space. Since the site is city-owned, the project must be approved through the Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP). Completion is tentatively set for 2022. The block-encompassing site is located between East 126th and 127th streets.
Foundation Work Underway for 49-Story, 483-Unit Mixed-Use Tower at 118 Fulton Street, Financial District
6:30 am on August 31, 2016 By Reid Wilson
Foundation work is well underway, now that concrete has been poured, for the planned 49-story, 483-unit mixed-use tower under development at 118 Fulton Street, in the Financial District. The construction progress can be seen thanks to a photo posted to the YIMBY Forums. The new building will eventually encompass 510,928 square feet and stand 574 feet above street level, as YIMBY reported back in July, when an updated rendering was revealed. There will be 5,366 square feet of commercial-retail space across the ground and second floors. The residential units, rental apartments, should average 975 square feet apiece, and will be accompanied by a slew of amenities. Carmel Partners is the developer and SLCE Architects is the architect of record. Completion can probably be expected in 2018.
33-Story, 270-Unit Mixed-Use Building Reaches Seventh Floor at 120 Nassau Street, Downtown Brooklyn
4:00 pm on August 30, 2016 By Reid Wilson
Since it was entirely below-grade back in January, construction is now up to the seventh floor on the 33-story, 270-unit mixed-use building planned at 120 Nassau Street (a.k.a. 199 Jay Street), in Downtown Brooklyn. The latest photo is courtesy of Tectonic, who posted it to the Forums. The latest building permits indicate a 313,093-square-foot, 425-foot-tall structure is in the works. It will include retail space on the ground floor, office space on parts of the second through eighth floors, and residential units across the rest of the second through eighth floors, as well as the 10th through 32nd floors. The units should average 854 square feet apiece, indicative of rental apartments. A slew of amenities will accommodate the apartments. The Clarett Group is the developer and Woods Bagot is behind the architecture. Completion can probably be expected in 2017 or 2018.

John Lee Sanders who hails from the Mississippi Delta, came to the Bay Area when his band Uncle Rainbow relocated from Dallas, Texas to San Francisco in the late 70s. They were brought to the Bay Area by Doobie Brothers' Michael Hossack who saw great potential in the group. Even though the group had a huge following, they were unable to secure a recording deal and broke up after a few years. John Lee stayed in the Bay Area and formed the band 360 that included Stef Burns who would many years later join Huey Lewis and the News. But also this band broke up and John Lee Sanders played in the house band of the Saddle Rack, Country Club, San Jose from 1984 to 1987.
John Lee Sanders became a top West Coast session player and producer, on keyboards, saxophone and horn arrangements, with a host of legendary blues, jazz and pop giants including John Lee Hooker, Jimmy Witherspoon, Freddie King, Dr. John, The Meters, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Page, Tower of Power & Stevie Wonder. In addition, on Sunday mornings, he was the hammond organist and vocal soloist at Beebe Memorial Church in Oakland, CA one of the largest black churches in the Bay Area, performing contemporary and traditional gospel. He toured extensively during the 90's with Starship, Roy Rogers & the Delta Rhythm Kings, Paul Williams, Mary Wells, Sam Moore, and as music director with Long John Baldry, holding down the keyboard spot formerly held by Elton John.
In 1995 he signed his first solo record deal with Hypertension/BMG in Germany and toured as a solo act throughout Europe. The albums "It's All Blues To Me" (1999), "Mozart: Rhythm & Romance" (2000) and "Beacon Of Light" (2005) followed. Not all of these albums are dedicated to the blues, though. "Mozart: Rhythm & Romance" is an appreciation for classical music and "Beacon Of Light" reflects John Lee's gospel roots.

In 2004, John Lee was nominated for blues song of the year at the WC Handy awards for his #9 blues charted hit, Foreclose on the House of Love. His songs have been covered by Eddie Kendricks of the Temptations, Marcia Ball and Sally Kellerman (AKA, Hot lips from MASH) and have appeared in numerous TV shows and commercials. His song "Just One Kiss" is nominated for a 2007 Emmy Award.
John Lee left the Bay Area and is now based out of Vancouver, British Columbia, where he works out of his own studio, and is writing film scores, music for television, and working on an upcoming musical and various solo projects. Recently he has released the 2CD Set "Live at Rock Beach" and a DVD of the same name - both of them highly recommended. John Lee Sanders also never lost the touch with the Bay Area - he is the lead vocalist on the CD "Doc Goes Hollywood" by Tower of Power's Doc Kupka. Plus, John Lee has already been singing vocals on Doc's Strokeland Superband CDs "Kick It Up A Step" (2000) and "Bumped Up To First Class" (2007).

The Board of Education voted Tuesday to keep a majority of thirty LAUSD schools in the hands of school teachers and administrators rather than hand control of those campuses over to Charters. That didn't have any effect on Fremont High, however, the school superintendent Ramon Cortines singled out in December for restructuring—a decision predicated by the No Child Left Behind policy. Cortines fired all the teachers and staff at Fremont in December. They're allowed to reapply for those jobs, but many don't know what those jobs will look like in September and they held a press conference this morning to oppose the restructuring. Patt talks with parents, students, district officials and representatives of United Teachers Los Angeles about why they oppose or support the plans to restructure.

Justia › US Law › Case Law › California Case Law › Supreme Court of California Decisions › 2018 › Kim v. Toyota Motor Corp.
At issue was whether evidence of industry custom and practice may be introduced in a strict products liability action.
William Jae Kim (Kim) and his wife brought this strict products liability suit against Toyota Motor Corporation alleging that the Toyota Tundra pickup truck Kim was driving he was injured was defective because its standard configuration did not include a vehicle stability control (VSC), which they claimed would have prevented the accident. During trial, evidence was admitted that no vehicle manufacturer at the time included VSC as standard equipment in pickup trucks. The jury returned a verdict in favor of Toyota. The Court of Appeal affirmed. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) evidence that a manufacturer's design conforms with industry custom and practice is not admissible to show the manufacturer adopted reasonably in adopting a challenged design and therefore cannot be held liable; (2) however, evidence of industry custom and practice may be admitted for the strict products liability inquiry, including the jury's evaluation of whether the product is as safely designed as it should be; and (3) the evidence in this case was properly admitted.


As firms collect increasing quantities and varieties of data, their IT departments are under pressure to process and deliver fresh data to line-of-business users faster than ever before. In order to meet the data delivery needs of their organization, they're leveraging a combination of data integration approaches to improve data availability and enable real-time data synchronization across the organization. Change data capture is one of those approaches.
What is change data capture? Change data capture is a technology used for identifying and capturing changes made to data in a database and—depending on the tool employed—delivering those changes to another database or other type of data repository. By allowing you to capture and extract only changed data, change data capture eliminates or reduces the need for batch windows, replacing bulk load updates with continuous streaming or incremental loading of data. Change data capture helps you improve efficiency by reducing redundant data replication and delivery, reducing data warehousing costs and facilitating real-time data integration across your data stores.
Although some database vendors offer embedded technology for change data capture, many do not or have ceased supporting built-in CDC—as is the case with Oracle Change Data Capture. And so, in order to implement change data capture in Oracle and many other database environments, firms must find a robust and reliable third-party CDC solution.
If you're looking for one powerful and affordable tool that can provide you with all of the above features and more, Attunity Replicate is the solution for you. Attunity Replicate is a high-performance data replication platform featuring our next-generation change data capture technology. Attunity CDC is log-based and efficient, allowing you to capture and deliver data changes in real time without degrading the performance of your source systems.
Our CDC for database replication technology is also versatile, enabling real-time data integration and event processing initiatives across a variety of enterprise data sources including mainframes. You can implement Oracle, SQL Server or DB2 CDC using one easy-to-use tool. Our intuitive visual interface makes it easy to set up, monitor, and manage your data pipelines, eliminating the need for scripting and ensuring quick time-to-value.

Incredible Talent
Noah J. Ribaric | Johnstown, Pennsylvania | 11/06/2007
"This guy is amazing. I saw his show before the Tori Amos concert in Pittsburgh and I was blown away. His set was far too short! Adore Adore has become one of my favorite songs, I just love it. I wish there were more songs on the EP, though, I could listen to him for hours. I can't really say what to compare this music to. I hate to make comparisons, but his live show is a lot like Howie Day's the way he creates his loops live and incorporates them into the songs. I've heard complaints about his tendency to sing above his "normal" vocal range, but I think he pulls it off incredibly well. He says it himself, his sound is like Beck meets Buckley meets Bjork and I love it."
Beautiful, moving music!
Noah J. Ribaric | 01/06/2008
"Yoav is amazing! I saw him open 5 times for Tori Amos and each time he blew me away! I had the pleasure of meeting him in Oakland and he signed the EP for me. At one of the Oakland shows he explained that the inspiration for the first song on the ep, "Adore,Adore" was he watched a video music awards and realized that a lot of people are in the music business for the wrong reasons, and this song was his response. "Beautiful Lie," the single, is an awesome song, and I've heard him sing it 5 times live and each time it blew me away, he's such a good singer and he's so innovative the way he makes the loops on stage for the backing vocals and percussion, all with his guitar!!!
"One by One" is more of a slow balad type song and shows his versatility, whereas "There is Nobody" is a fast-paced song with a beat that will be in your head all day.
I cannot recommend this disc enough. Yoav is amazing, raw talent and he will go far."
I love Yoav
"This guy is amazing- great singing, great guitar playing, totally innovative and original. "Adore Adore" is an incredible song... the beginning gives me chills everytime. The live songs are great too... you can see that his voice sounds even a little bit better live.
Buy this EP... you will adore, adore it!!!"
Yoav is THE BOMB!!
shady | SC | 11/23/2007
"I'm going to a lot of Tori Amos shows this year so I've had the pleasure of seeing Yoav live 7 times so far! He's pure genius! He really can't be compared to anyone. His sound is so unique and beautiful! I have this EP and I play it over and over! My only complaint is that it's too short!
On a side note, I was lucky enough to meet Yoav and talk to him for a bit in Charlotte and Atlanta. He's a very friendly, intelligent, funny guy!
I predict wonderful things for him! He's nothing short of amazing! :)"
Up and coming singer
J. Vogel | Export, PA | 10/31/2007
"Saw him as the opening act for Tori Amos and I hvae to say he has a unique and interesitng style. Acoustic electronica and a beuatiful ranged voice. Looking forward to the full album."

Q: ViewScope: Target the "right" composite component's object instance Walking further down the understanding process of the jsf 2 view scope, I am running into problems again.
There are multiple instances of my composite component's bound object created and setting values does not seem to target the "right" one.
I have the same initial setup as in Auto-instantiate session-scoped bean from view-scoped bean
Now I created a composite component:
<composite:interface componentType="helloWidget">

</composite:interface>

<composite:implementation>
    <h:outputText value="Visible state of this composite component: #{cc.visibleState}"/>
</composite:implementation>

and its java counterpart
@FacesComponent(value = "helloWidget")
public class HelloWidget extends UINamingContainer implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 2L;
    private boolean visible;

    public void show() {
        System.out.println("Setting visible state to true " + this);
        visible = true;
    }

    public void hide() {
        System.out.println("Setting visible state to false " + this);
        visible = false;
    }

    public String getVisibleState() {
        System.out.println("Getting visible state of " + this + "(" + visible + ")");
        return String.valueOf(visible);
    }
}

I then upgraded my ViewBean.java
private HelloWidget helloWidget;
private boolean visible;

public String getVisibleState() {
    return String.valueOf(visible);
}

public void actionShow(ActionEvent ae) {

    visible = true;
    helloWidget.show();
}

public void actionHide(ActionEvent ae) {

    visible = false;
    helloWidget.hide();
}

public HelloWidget getHelloWidget() {
    return helloWidget;
}

public void setHelloWidget(HelloWidget helloWidget) {
    this.helloWidget = helloWidget;
}

and my hello.xhtml:
<f:view>
    <h:form>
        <h:outputText value="View-scoped bean visible value: #{viewBean.visibleState}"/>

        <mycc:helloWidget binding="#{viewBean.helloWidget}"/>

        <h:commandButton value="Show" actionListener="#{viewBean.actionShow}"/>
        <h:commandButton value="Hide" actionListener="#{viewBean.actionHide}"/>
    </h:form>
</f:view>

When I now hit the show / hide buttons, the value of the "visible" property in the view scoped bean changes as expected. The "visible" value of the HelloWidget property changes too, but when the page is displayed, a different HelloWidget instance is displayed, which has visible set to (default) false.
What am I doing wrong here? Is there a problem with the way I bind the composite component?

A: The components are instantiated during building/restoring of the view. They are essentially thus request scoped. Any state which you'd like to keep in the view scope needs to be stored in the JSF view state. The normal approach is to let the getters/setters of the properties representing the view scoped state delegate to the UIComponent#getStateHelper().
So, this should do:
@FacesComponent(value = "helloWidget")
public class HelloWidget extends UINamingContainer implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 2L;

    public void show() {
        setVisible(true);
    }

    public void hide() {
        setVisible(false);
    }

    public Boolean getVisible() {
        return (Boolean) getStateHelper().eval("visible");
    }

    public void setVisible(Boolean visible) {
        getStateHelper().put("visible", visible);
    }
}

You've however another potential problem not related to this issue: using binding on a view scoped bean property causes the view scoped bean itself to be recreated during every request. Use the binding attribtue with extreme care. This problem has the same grounds as already explained in JSTL in JSF2 Facelets... makes sense?.

APIs have become a strategic necessity for conducting business due to the agility, innovation, and automation they enable. While 90% of the business reaps the benefits of this technology, the security teams are often exposed to a slew of new challenges that can't be solved by long-standing security tools and strategies. In fact, according to Gartner1, by 2022, API abuses will be the most frequent attack vector resulting in data breaches for enterprise web applications. We are partnering with the team at SC Magazine to address this phenomenon in an upcoming webinar.
It seems that nearly every week, another IoT related security story is in the news. While most of the coverage still focuses on the hardware, organizations often forget the cloud infrastructure that connects the differing threads of IoT devices. These portals are a mega culprit in the complicated and risky security landscape. They are a modern day hacker's keys to your kingdom.
In a world that is increasingly fast-paced, continuously evolving, and especially competitive, the Internet of Things (IoT) has introduced an entirely new era of connectivity and productivity. For the most part, consumers and businesses alike would argue that the IoT has transformed our every day lives for the better. From optimizing business processes to automating monotonous, manual tasks, IoT devices are integrated in nearly everything we do. In addition to this, many organizations rely on a web portal for multi-device management. This convenience, however, comes at a cost.

Petrobras increases LNG imports by 200 pc in 2021
Company imported 23mn cubic metres per day.
The Doha Globe Thursday January 13, 2022
RIO DE JANEIRO: Brazilian state-run oil company Petrobras announced on Wednesday it imported a record 23 million cubic metres per day of LNG in 2021, a volume around 200 per cent higher than the one recorded in the previous year.
The record occurred during a year of strong thermoelectric demand in Brazil, due to the worst drought ever recorded in hydroelectric reservoirs in more than 90 years. Petrobras imports LNG from countries such as the US, Trinidad & Tobago and Qatar.
"In the same year, LNG represented around 30 per cent of Petrobras' total portfolio of natural gas supply, being essential to meet the demands contracted by its customers," said the company.
The former record volume for Petrobras was in 2014, when the company imported 20 million cubic metres per day of LNG.
