General Atomics Wins MQ-9A Modification | Elbit To Supply Hermes 900 To Undisclosed Customer | New Zealand Enhances Defense Aid To Ukraine
Nov 18, 2022 05:00 UTC by Defense Industry Daily staff
General Atomics won a $46.9 million contract modification by the US Navy, which exercises an option to provide spares necessary for the successful operational capability of the Marine Air Ground Task Force Unmanned Aircraft System Expeditionary Medium Altitude Long Endurance MQ-9A Block 5 Reaper air vehicles, ground control stations, and ancillary equipment. Work will take place in California, Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, Virginia, Ohio, Arkansas, Florida and South Carolina.
The US Navy awarded Sikorsky a $14.1 million modification, which exercises an option to provide non-recurring engineering, supplies and support necessary for the low rate initial production Lot 1 deployable configuration updates for the CH-53K heavy lift replacement aircraft for the Navy. Work will take place in Florida. Expected completion is in December 2023.
Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems has received a $72-million contract to supply an undisclosed international customer with Hermes 900 unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). Under the two-year agreement, Elbit will deliver Hermes 900 drones equipped with the company's electro-optical system, including a wide area persistent surveillance system, multi-spectral electro-optical payload, satellite communication, and signal intelligence payloads.
The US State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Switzerland of PATRIOT Advanced Capability (PAC) 3 Missile Segment Enhanced (MSE) missiles and related equipment for an estimated cost of $700 million. The proposed sale of the PAC-3 MSE missiles will enhance the capability of Switzerland's PATRIOT missile defense system. The proposed sale supports Switzerland's goal of improving national and territorial defense as well as interoperability with U.S. and NATO forces. Switzerland will use the PATRIOT system and missiles to defend its territorial integrity and for regional stability. The prime contractor will be Lockheed-Martin, Dallas, Texas.
French President Emmanuel Macron said Thursday that an offer to cooperate with Australia on submarines still stood, after a bitter row over a cancelled contract last year threatened to torpedo relations. Macron was left furious when Australia's previous prime minister Scott Morrison abruptly tore up a contract for France to build a dozen diesel-powered submarines and announced a deal to buy US or British nuclear-powered subs.
The New Zealand government has enhanced its defense commitments to Ukraine, boosting military equipment funding and extending training for Ukrainian warfighters. Prime Minister Jacina Ardern on Monday announced an undisclosed amount of additional military support to improve Ukraine's self defense nine months into Russia's invasion.

At the 2010 Digestive Disease Week (DDW), several presentations highlighted new approaches to the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The burden of HCV is rapidly increasing as those infected with the virus years ago are becoming symptomatic. New treatments may soon offer hope where standard treatments have been failing, but the cost is expected to soar. David R. Nelson, MD, Professor of Medicine, University of Florida, Gainesville, suggested that within a few years we could "cure 60% to 80% of HCV patients with these new treatments."

A NEW HOME FOR THE WHA
Monday, October 18 2021
After many decades occupying a small office in Westmount Public Library, the WHA recently was given the use of more spacious quarters on the second floor of Victoria Hall, the heritage municipal building located nearby. Not only does this new location offer more space for our expanding office activities and archival collection, but it also provides easy access as well as a comfortable and functional environment for our volunteer staff, outside researchers, or other visitors.
Packing and reinstallation of our collections and equipment was carried out by the WHA this past spring, with support from the library director and staff. Organizing the space continued slowly throughout the summer while the building remained mostly closed due to pandemic restrictions.
With the return of classes and other public gatherings in Victoria Hall this September, WHA members are cordially invited to come visit the "Anteroom", as our new location has long been named. Please contact us at info@wha.quebec to arrange a date and time for a maximum of two visitors together. Vaccine passports and personal i.d. are required for entry to the building, and masks must be worn.
Goode House Designation
Thursday, February 04 2021
Westmount recently became the first Quebec municipality to apply the province's Cultural Heritage Act to the interior of a heritage building. On November 20, 2020, Westmount City Council designated the privately-owned Goode property at 178 Côte St. Antoine Road a heritage property. By-Law 1552 will protect the distinguishing features, both exterior and interior, of this unique property. The 1840s house's exterior has been protected since the late 1980s, based on its Category 1* classification. Elements of its interior are now also safeguarded by the provincial act which gives municipalities the power to confer protection to sites within their borders. The Goode House landscaping, which is a reflection of 19th century suburban garden design, has also been included in this designation.

Drugged by the police: the rise of ketamine in the law enforcement arsenal
Colorado Councilwoman Anita Springsteen speaks out against the use of Ketamine to subdue her partner during an arrest and leads a crusade to put a moratorium on Ketamine usage across the state.
by Taya Graham and Stephen Janis September 25, 2020 December 21, 2020
Rush Transcript:
Hello. My name is Taya Graham and welcome to The Police Accountability Report. As I always make clear from the start, this show has a single purpose, holding the politically powerful institution of policing accountable. And this means going beyond the headlines and delving deeper into the system that makes bad policing possible. Like many of our shows, we like to point out links between law enforcement and the underlying system, which creates troubling alliances, collaborations between cops and often corporations or politicians that incentivize punishments and make for questionable public policy.
And nothing exemplifies this issue more than the case of Elijah McClain. McClain, a self-taught musician who was stopped by Aurora, Colorado police in August of 2019, after a report of a suspicious person. As you can see in this video, police pinned him to the ground and a position that cut off the blood flow to his brain. The compression prompted McClain to vomit and become unresponsive, but instead of offering him medical aid, paramedics did something that has become an all too common response during these type of encounters, which is the subject of our show today. First responders, or EMTs, at the behest of police administered 500 milligrams of ketamine to McClain. That's right. First responders who are tasked with saving lives pumped a massive dose of strong anesthetic into his diminutive 140 pound body.
The medical examiner, after a controversial meeting with police, ruled his death undetermined. It's a category which means that other four manners of death could not be ruled in or out. His family and supporters believe this case is a homicide. Since then, McClain's death has stoked controversy in the city of Aurora and beyond, not solely for the use of controversial restraints that often prove dangerous, but the use of ketamine by law enforcement to subdue people. It should be noted that ketamine is a strong sedative that was initially used to sedate animals. Since then, it's been approved for human use, but only in limited circumstances and under strict supervision, and mostly as a general anesthetic administered in a hospital.
But recently the drug has emerged as a go-to option for cops looking to handle unruly or mentally incapacitated individuals. But this trend has been met with pushback, as activists and families whose loved ones have suffered the consequences of this policy change have sought to call attention to the dangers of the drug. So, for the next two shows, we're going to take a deep dive into the politics and pharmacology of ketamine. We're going to examine the trends of how rapidly its use has grown and the science, which contradicts the assurances of law enforcement that it's safe to use. And we're going to speak to two people who are intimately familiar with the dangers and pitfalls of the drug.
But before I get to all that, I want to check in with my reporting partner, Stephen Janis, who's been looking into the history of ketamine use and how much its use has accelerated over time. It's a fundamental question that we discovered is much more difficult to answer than it should be. Stephen, thank you so much for joining me.
Stephen Janis: Taya, thanks for having me. I appreciate it.
Taya Graham: So I think the first question that has to be answered is what exactly is ketamine and how is it intended to be used? And more importantly, what uses are actually approved?
Stephen Janis: Well, it's interesting. Ketamine was first an animal sedative, as you pointed out earlier in the show, but also then became a general anesthesia used mostly in a hospital setting, supervised by a doctor to induce anesthesia in people to assist in operations. All the uses that we're seeing with law enforcement or in terms of depression and other things that it's been used for are all off-label uses, which means they're not approved by the FDA, but in fact, they have to be done only under the supervision of a doctor. So it's very unusual that police departments and officers are telling people to administer ketamine, considering that it's a very dangerous substance that really sedates your respiratory system and can cause hallucinations and all sorts of other side effects.
Taya Graham: It seems that much of this use is tied to a faulty medical concept called excited delirium. You've had some experience with this alleged scientific theory and its ties to questionable law enforcement uses. Can you tell us a little about it?
Stephen Janis: Well, when I was doing investigations into taser deaths, we had a lot of taser deaths in Maryland. One thing that would come up consistently in the autopsies was not cardiac arrhythmia, which is what a taser causes, in other words, your heart rhythm to become interrupted and to be fatal, was this thing called excited delirium. They were attributing taser deaths to excited delirium. So I really pushed our medical examiner. He gave me a book that really was a concoction of fiction, that said excited delirium was a medical or a psychological problem that existed in the 19th century in people who had been put inside sanatoriums. So it was really, really weird and junk science. So now people are saying, and we can overhear in conversation with officers, that they're administering ketamine because people are going through "excited delirium", which is really, really difficult to understand because it shows how disentangled the use of ketamine, or disconnected the use of ketamine is from actual medical science, because if they're using excited delirium to justify it, it makes no sense at all.
Taya Graham: Ketamine was first approved as an anesthetic, but there has been some pushback from doctors who know a great deal about them, namely anesthesiologists. What have they said and what does it say about the use of ketamine?
Stephen Janis: Well, the American Association of Anesthesiologists has literally put out a statement saying they completely oppose the use of ketamine in law enforcement situations. They said specifically that it's too dangerous, that it needs to be done under the supervision of a doctor in a hospital, and should not be administered ad hoc to people who are in the field. And they've come up pretty forcefully against the use of it at all.
Taya Graham: Stephen's reporting raises a series of troubling questions. Most importantly, how did such a dangerous tool end up in the hands of cops and how did a drug that has not specifically gone through the rigorous process of testing for use in dangerous situations, become a go-to chemical restraint? And what, if any, pushback is occurring among the people who are tasked with overseeing police? To answer these questions, we spoke to two people engaged in the battle over its use. Our first guest is a City Councilwoman whose personal experience with ketamine prompted her to ask some tough questions about the drug, and it's both the pushback and the information she obtained which will be the topic of our conversation with her. Her name is Anita Springsteen, and she's a Councilwoman in Lakewood, Colorado, and her fight against the use of ketamine came from firsthand experience with its use.
As you can see in this video you're watching now, Springsteen's boyfriend was arrested by police after a nearby assisted living facility alleged that he was harassing the staff. The arrest was controversial because Springsteen disputes the account of law enforcement that he was in fact a nuisance, but more importantly, she believes that the use of ketamine was uncalled for, given that her significant other complied with police as shown in this video. Since the incident, she has tried to scrutinize how often the drug is used, the criteria for using it, and why it has become so commonplace. And what has happened to her during that process is revealing, not just about how law enforcement works, but the political peril of asking uncomfortable questions. Anita, thank you so much for joining us.
Anita Springsteen: Thank you for having me. I appreciate it.
Taya Graham: So tell me, you are on the Lakewood Colorado City Council and have advocated for law enforcement reform. What kind of pushback have you received?
Anita Springsteen: It has been difficult, to say the least. Just last Monday, I had explained to Council during my report that the producers at 60 Minutes had reached out to me and interviewed me regarding ketamine in Colorado because they're doing a piece on Elijah McClain. And I made note that I'm probably the first City Councilor in Lakewood to ever be contacted by 60 Minutes. Regardless of how that story turns out, I feel like I'm in a fight trying to change the world. Everybody around me is silent. And I said, "The silence is deafening." So, that's the pushback I'm getting in Lakewood. I think they are making progress in Aurora where Elijah McClain died. They actually put some legislation in place this last week to put a moratorium on the use of ketamine by their paramedics. And that is what I've been asking for in Lakewood since June, when I first made a statement about this issue and what happened in my particular situation.
Taya Graham: So how have you seen police controller influence the City Council?
Anita Springsteen: I guess I'm a little confused as to why it has been so difficult to get people to speak out, given the state of current events with regard to protesting and how that has built over the summer. I'm not quite clear what role the police union plays. I'm still trying to learn my way around the city. There is certainly room for improvement, and we know that. We know that because Elijah McClain died and we know that because they are still administering ketamine all over the state of Colorado. So this is our opportunity to take a close look at what are the problems? How do we fix it?
In January, my boyfriend was arrested outside of my house, and I won't go into the details of what happened other than to say he did not break any laws, but he was very calm, saying, "I will comply 100%," walked himself to a gurney, and then they gave him ketamine. And my head spun because I was trying to wrap my head around in that moment, what just happened? I didn't even know this was a thing. I didn't know people could inject somebody that way, especially if they're being calm and they're restrained and they're voicing compliance. And so right away, I began my research and I found out about Elijah McLean back in January and I found out what they gave my boyfriend. Then I wasn't quite sure how to address that issue because I was a brand new Councilor. I did not want to appear that I was trying to influence anything at all because to add insult to injury, even though he had to go on life support and be taken to the hospital after this, they charged him with criminal charges. For a few months, I was confused as to what to do.
Then in May, what had led to this situation was a neighborhood problem we've had for some time, and the neighborhood problem carried over onto some of my neighbors. So I went to the City Manager for help with the neighborhood problem. A few days later a reporter from channel four was knocking on my front door, and the intention was to do a hit piece on me and my boyfriend and try his case in the media. I do not know how that occurred exactly. I know that the people who had accused my boyfriend had called the mayor around that same time as well. So I'm still trying to get to the bottom of what happened there. But one of the things they tried to say on the news piece was that I had lied to the police, and that's just not true. That didn't happen. So I felt like I don't know who, I don't know if the Police Department is involved, I don't know if it's just city leadership, but somebody decided that they were going to use this as an opportunity to remove me from City Council.
Around that same time was when George Floyd protesting started happening and the Elijah McClain story started coming out more. And I thought, "This is my opportunity, while I'm still a city leader to get this story out there, that ketamine is a problem statewide." So, I made a statement and made much more public because I think there wasn't a lot of understanding about the extent of the abuse of this and the extent to which law enforcement influences the use of ketamine. A lot of people say, "Well, it's the paramedics giving the ketamine," but that wasn't my personal experience. My personal experience was that the police are influencing that decision in many different ways.
Why are they calling the paramedics in the first place? In this particular circumstance with Jeremiah, the paramedic only spoke to him for about 60 seconds and then ignored him and talked to the police instead. They claimed that there was an assault, and there was no assault. So that goes into a medical decision as well. A lot of people want to say that maybe my experience is not as … or maybe what I am trying to do is not legitimate because I have this personal connection to it, but my response to that would be, I believe that it's even more profound because as a policy maker, I got to stand there and witness it firsthand and what the problem is. And I got to read these reports that are inaccurate and don't fit with the video. So I would say that there are so many people out there who don't have that advantage of having all those things to bring out their story, so I want to bring out all of their stories for them.
Taya Graham: So how often is ketamine used in Colorado?
Anita Springsteen: If they are going to claim people are in excited delirium and have lost their mind to the extent that they cannot make a medical decision for themselves, somebody is making that for them. Somebody is putting a date rape drug into their veins for them. Then they shouldn't be charging people with criminal charges because it's sort of a state of temporary insanity by their own definition. So how can you form the mental culpability to commit crimes in that circumstance? So what I have said is they can't have it both ways. Either it's medical malpractice because this person is not really in excited delirium and they're dosing them with ketamine anyway, or it's malicious prosecution because they're prosecuting people who are the equivalent of somebody driving down the highway and they have a seizure or a heart attack and accidentally kill somebody in their car. They are not guilty of a crime. It was a medical emergency.
So this letter has gone out there to the Governor, and I have asked him to dismiss or pardon all crimes that have been charged on the 902 cases where people have been dosed with ketamine. I haven't had any response yet, but I think it's a very valid argument, especially since ketamine is known to erase people's memories. So how can they even defend themselves in these cases?
Taya Graham: So I think Anita's story makes something clear, how the imperative of law enforcement to impose control over our bodies corrupts the institutions and processes designed to protect us. Given the explosion of the use of ketamine by police, it seems odd there's so little data or study or even justification for its use. It raises the question of how this powerful anesthetic approved for use in hospital settings only has suddenly become a suitable drug to administer at the discretion of cops who hardly qualify as medical experts. In fact, even the State Health Department confirmed there were 902 reported instances of Colorado paramedics administering ketamine from 2018 to 2020, and almost 17% of these cases had complications, including cardiac arrest and oxygen deprivation.
Perhaps the whistleblower lawsuit by a paramedic can shed some light on the situation. His name is Joseph Paul Baker, and he sued the city of Woodbury, Minnesota, because he felt pressured by cops to administer ketamine to people who didn't need it. In fact, Baker alleges in the suit when he pushed back, he faced retaliation from his superiors for not following the orders of officers who demanded he administer ketamine, despite his assessment that doing so would be dangerous. City officials there would not respond to his claims and the lawsuit is still pending, but it shows why the story of the rise and use of ketamine by law enforcement is so troubling. That's because many of the situations where ketamine has been used with harmful results occurred when cops had already escalated a less than urgent situation.
In all the aforementioned cases like McClain's and McKnight's, police were called for mundane reasons, but when they proved either unable or incapable of deescalation, they turned to ketamine. The point is, like many other policies and tactics of law enforcement, the root justification for ketamine has nothing to do with public safety or enforcing the law. The experience of the Councilwoman and the lawsuit from a whistleblower reveal in part the reasons for the use of this dangerous drug has grown behind the scenes with so little public scrutiny, it provides the cops and the system they serve with another tool of compliance. That is another way to subdue, arrest and detain citizens against their will.
But even more troubling is unlike other forms of restraint, this tool is a narcotic of the mind. In a sense, it represents a unique aspect of law enforcement we talk about quite often on this show, and that it's usually ignored by the mainstream media. Remember, the police and their supporters are constantly bolstered by the endless array of cop-aganda that permeates the mainstream media. Our massive and unprecedented law enforcement industrial complex uses the instruments of media and symbolism to persuade us to comply. And what could be more aligned with the efforts to induce our consent than a drug, which at its core, separates our mind from our body? What could be a more appropriate symbol of the current state of over-policing that we have documented on this show, than a drug which puts our conscience into an involuntary slumber and makes our minds captive to a chemical?
It's a troubling and symbiotic relationship between pharmacology and punishment that we will continue to investigate in order to understand how and why it is happening at all. I'd like to thank our guest, Councilwomen Springsteen for joining us today. Thank you so much for your time.

Another Chicago Magazine
The National Book Review
Foreword Reviews
Set in diverse locations, including Chicago, Georgia, and Florida, Wilson's stories offer a series of snapshots of almost every moment of adult life, from high-school graduation to retirement. Set in the humdrum worlds of parks, offices, and family homes, each story turns on snap decisions by characters who are bored, restless, or scared. The opening story, "Welcome to Gorilla City," initially focuses on a small act of graffiti but ends up enveloping topics of national relevance, namely, immigration and inherited wealth. Similarly, the seemingly amusing premise of a wife trying to catch her husband with a sex doll in "Trash Days" becomes a thoughtful exploration of love, marriage, and our obsession with image. The title story delicately captures the struggles of a couple after a miscarriage. In the final story, "Florida Power and Light," a Kafkaesque twist demonstrates Wilson's willingness to embrace the absurd. Like Lorrie Moore's and Bobbie Ann Mason's short fiction, Wilson's stories display subtle humor and a deft ear for dialogue, making for a wonderfully varied and enjoyable debut collection.

It carried propellants—liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen—that flowed into the Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSMEs), where it produced almost one and a half million pounds of thrust to help push the space shuttle to orbit.

I had the chance to speak to David Knight, CEO of Terbine Group & Board of Trustees California Science Center during the shuttle tank's early stages first leaving the port of NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans heading it's way to Los Angeles. Hear him talk about his adventure filming ET's journey passing through the Panama Canal, virtual reality, also find out about David's three second stunt man career.
I caught up with George Whitesides, CEO of Virgin Galactic & the Spaceship Company while he was there with his family watching the space shuttle tank arrive at the California Science Center.
"It's a terrific day, I remember when I was at NASA we were deciding where these things were going to end up and now it's all here, so it's a really great day. I think it's going to be fantastic for the city of Los Angeles to have an entire shuttle stack in one place." – George Whitesides, CEO of Virgin Galactic & the Spaceship Company
Additionally, I had the chance to meet and talk with Robert Pearlman, Contributing Writer of Space.com & Editor of CollectSpace. www.collectspace.com
"It's wonderful seeing so many people turn out to watch a piece of space shuttle history go through the streets of LA again. It brought back a lot of memories of watching Endeavor do the same type of transfer and gave a lot of attention to a part of the space shuttle that the public might not actually know about. They might recognize it if it was in the vertical standing on the launch pad but rolling through the streets..this is probably their first time seeing an external tank by itself. Any opportunity to expose the public to space history, get them interested in space and science is a good thing in my book.

How Fyre's Organizers Used 'Influencers' To Market A Festival That Didn't Exist
Last fall, at the Web Summit tech conference in Lisbon, Portugal, the rapper Ja Rule addressed a small audience seated in front of the event's music stage: "I'll let my partner-in-crime here Billy McFarland give you all an introduction of what Fyre is." At the time, Ja Rule and McFarland were promoting an app that would, we now know, share its name with one of the least-successful music events in recent memory, currently the subject of a $100 million lawsuit. The Fyre app, like McFarland's other venture Magnesis (a rarefied "concierge" for the young, beautiful and hip), is directed at "young urban professionals" and "influencers" (brace yourself to see that word a lot). The app allowed promoters, venues or just whomever to book artists for small, lucrative shows for small, well-heeled audiences — much like the concept that underpinned the event with which it now indelibly shares a name.
In the social media-driven present, these influencers are one-person marketing vehicles for all types of products, capitalizing on conventionally attractive faces and the enviable lifestyles they portray on their profiles. They were, as we see from the marketing deck for Fyre and the Fyre Festival obtained by Vanity Fair, the ostensible key to success for McFarland's and Ja Rule's disastrous music event.
The first 10 pages of the 43-page presentation focuses on the app, touting a roster of artists including Iggy Azalea, Queen Latifah, Lil Wayne, DJ Khaled and "hundreds of other notable artists, athletes and influencers." It operates by allowing those looking to book artists on its roster to negotiate offers and payments and that talent to accept it, with Fyre taking a 10 percent commission from bookers.
The remaining 33 pages focus on the first edition of the Fyre Festival — yes, first. The deck explains Fyre Festival's long-term vision: new event spaces, built from scratch — with the Trumpian phrase "through the purchase of significant land" — each year for the next five years, "referencing the five elements of the earth." Its inaugural element? Water. (Irony alert: This despite there reportedly being precious little of it on hand for last week's attendees).
"Come, seek, for searching is the foundation of fortune," goes the Zoolander-esque tagline. "What if we reimagined what it means to attend a music festival," one slide wonders. The next: "The actual experience exceeds all expectations and is something that's hard to put into words," a statement that, if you replace the word 'exceeds,' is woefully accurate in retrospect.
The plan was to build awareness and attendance by recruiting — you guessed it — influencers, who would promote it on their social media accounts. Dubbed "the Fyre Tribe," each was given free tickets and flights to the festival in exchange for taking part in a coordinated marketing effort that had each — over 30 are listed, with links, in the deck — post an "ambiguous" orange slide on their Instagram with the hashtag #FyreFestival. In the aftermath of last week's debacle, most scrubbed their accounts of the promotion, though at least eighteen remained live as of this writing (see here, here and here for examples). Kendall Jenner, she of the lamentably anti-woke Pepsi ad debacle, was central to the Fyre Festival promotional campaign too, announcing the festival's first headliner, G.O.O.D. Music.
That each post we reviewed seemed to run afoul of Federal Trade Commission rules around paid promotion may come to haunt the Fyre Tribe, however. Last month the FTC sent out "more than 90 letters reminding influencers and marketers that influencers should clearly and conspicuously disclose their relationships to brands when promoting or endorsing products through social media." The letters "were sent in response to a sample of Instagram posts making endorsements or referencing brands." (It also issued a template letter that begins "Dear {Influencer}.")
As mentioned, a suit against the festival's organizers was filed just two days after the situation on the ground became public. The FTC tells NPR that, so far, all cases brought over paid (but undisclosed) social media marketing campaigns have been against companies, not individuals, though a class action suit brought by individuals outside the FTC remains an open question.
The deck concludes with a quote from the ancient poet Rumi: "Seek those who light your flames." After a search for the originating poem, it seems that — in keeping with the general timbre of Fyre — Rumi's quote actually reads: "Seek those who fan your flames." Mission accomplished.

Life's Too Short Clip: Liam Neeson Tries To Be Funny
Published: Nov. 11. 2011 4:32 AM
Ricky Gervais has gotten himself back into the fake documentary business, and while those of us stateside will have to wait until 2012 to see the new series Life's Too Short when it eventually premieres on HBO, people across the pond got to see it premiere on BBC 2 this week. Check out this clip from the series, which features guest star Liam Neeson.
Life's Too Short stars Warwick Davis as an actor who finds himself in a bit of a tax situation, which prompts him to allow a camera crew to film his life 24/7. This week's premiere episode had Warwick looking to funny-men Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant for advice. Liam Neeson also appears, as you'll see in this clip, where he tries to be funny, and unintentionally succeeds. His sense of humor is subtle and soft-spoken and it works perfectly in the scene.
On a semi-related note, Neeson's demonstrated obsession incorporating AIDS into his skit reminds me of The Office's Michael Scott's inability to do improv without somehow incorporating a gun into every skit. Since we're on the subject of The Office (originally created by Ricky Gervais) and AIDS, I'll leave Mr. Neeson with this quote:
"There are certain topics that are off limits to comedians: JFK, AIDS, the Holocaust. The Lincoln assassination just recently became funny. I need to see this play like I need a hole in the head. And I hope to someday live in a world where a person could tell a hilarious AIDS joke. Still one of my dreams." - Michael Scott

Q: Get data from database Android I have a page which can retrieve user data from database
but after whole day of trying, I am only able to get the table column name but not the value inside.
this is my code to create database
 public static final String LASTLOGIN = "lastuser";
 public static final String USER_ID = "suser_id";
 public static final String USER_NAME = "suser_name";
 public static final String USER_PASSWORD = "spassword";
 public static final String PRIME_ID = "id";

 private static final String TABLE_USER =
         "create table "+ LASTLOGIN+" ("
        +PRIME_ID+" integer primary key autoincrement, "
        + USER_ID + " text, "
        + USER_NAME +" text, "
        +USER_PASSWORD+" text); ";

and here is the function implemented to get user data
public Cursor getuser()
{
    String[] columns = new String[]{PRIME_ID, USER_NAME, USER_PASSWORD};
    Cursor cursor = sqLiteDatabase.query(
           LASTLOGIN, columns, null, null, null, null, PRIME_ID +" DESC");
    Log.d("TAG", columns[1]);
    return cursor;
}

and here is my code to display the result
mySQLiteAdapter = new SQLiteAdapter(this);
mySQLiteAdapter.openToWrite();

cursor = mySQLiteAdapter.getuser();
String[] resultvalue = new String{
         SQLiteAdapter.PRIME_ID,SQLiteAdapter.USER_NAME, SQLiteAdapter.USER_PASSWORD};
Toast.makeText(this, resultvalue[0]+resultvalue[1], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

and the toast result only show the column name but not the value inside, is there any mistake i made? and I want to set limit to 1, but where to set it?
Thanks for helping me

A: the way you try reading the values is completly wrong.
you create an array
String[] resultvalue = new String[]{
                       SQLiteAdapter.PRIME_ID,
                       SQLiteAdapter.USER_NAME,
                       SQLiteAdapter.USER_PASSWORD};

after that you read the values 0 and 1 from this array.
Your toast works absolutly correctly becouse inside this array you define the column names!
If you want to show the values from your query do it this way:
    while(cursor.moveToNext()){
            Integer str1 = str 1 + cursor.getInteger(1);
            String str2 =str2 + cursor.getString(2);
       Toast.makeText(this, str1 + str2, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }

or a better way receiving the correct index:
cursor.getInteger( cursor.getColumnIndex(SQLiteAdapter.PRIME_ID) );
cursor.getString( cursor.getColumnIndex(SQLiteAdapter.USER_NAME) );

A: Please note when retrieving data from a database, you store it in a Cursor in the memory and hence can only access it using that particular Cursor object, which you have used in the following line of code.
Cursor cursor = mySQLiteAdapter.getuser();

The Following line retrieves the column names and not the values.
String[] resultvalue = new String[]{SQLiteAdapter.PRIME_ID,SQLiteAdapter.USER_NAME, SQLiteAdapter.USER_PASSWORD};

So the following is doing what you have asked it to do, retrieve column names not values
Toast.makeText(this, resultvalue[0]+resultvalue[1], Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

You need something like following:
if(cursor.getCount() != 0)
{
        while(cursor.moveToNext())
        {

                    resultvalue [0] = csr.getString(0);
                    resultvalue [1] = csr.getString(1);
                    //....
        }
}

Hope this helps

A: here is my solution:
final String TABLE_NAME = "table_name";
String selectQuery = "SELECT Column FROM "+TABLE_NAME+" WHERE column='"+some_value+"'";
SQLiteDatabase db  = this.openDatabase();
Cursor cursor      = db.rawQuery(selectQuery, null);
String[] data      = new String[cursor.getCount()];;
int i = 0;

if (cursor.moveToFirst()) {
    do {
        i=Integer.parseInt(cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex("value")));
    } while (cursor.moveToNext());
}
cursor.close();

In Greek mythology, Cerberus (Greek: Κέρβερος, Kérberos; Latin: Cerberus) is the monstrous, multi-headed dog that guards the entrance to the Underworld, preventing the souls of the dead from leaving.
Often called the "hound of Hades", Cerberus was one of the numerous offspring of the monsters Typhon and Echidna; he is usually depicted as having three heads, along with a serpent for a tail. Cerberus is primarily known for being captured by Herakles, as the last of the hero's Twelve Labors.

En la mitología griega, Macareo (Μακαρεύς / Makareus) era uno de los helíadas, hijo de Helios y la ninfa Rodo. Gobernó, junto a sus hermanos y a su madre, la isla de Rodas cuando los telquines huyeron para no ser aniquilados por Zeus. Macareo destacó, por habérselo inculcado su padre, en la astrología y en la metalurgia, pero al ser superado en estas artes por su hermano Ténages planeó con otros de sus hermanos su asesinato. Conocido este crimen tuvo que huir de Rodas, exiliándose en la isla de Lesbos, de la que llegó a ser rey junto con otras islas cercanas que conquistó. Fue el padre de Mitilene, Cidrólao y Metimna, la que después se desposaría con Lesbo, el héroe epónimo de la isla.

Q: Can I pass binary messages using crossbar.io So I want to transfer sound bytes over a websocket from a phone to a server. However according to http://crossbar.io/docs/Features crossbar seems to only implement json and msgpack. Can I stil transfer binary messages over crossbar using some other way?
Also multiple crossbar clients (for eg )seems to only provide json and webpack as de/serialization formats. Am I missing something?

A: WAMP is primarily intended for transmission of messages, not large (binary) payloads. For small chunks you can encode the audio so that it can be part of a regular WAMP payload. For an example of this for a webcam image, see the Tessel camera example - https://github.com/crossbario/crossbarexamples/tree/master/iotcookbook/device/tessel/camera. This works fine in principle, though there is, of course, the encoding/decoding overhead.


This is a gite for two people, with a spacious bedroom upstairs, lounge on the ground floor, and terrace with sun loungers and a table for your meals. The kitchen and bathroom equipment is the same for all our gites. The bedroom has two single beds. It is air conditioned because the nights can be quite hot in summer.
The bedroom and lounge open onto the terrace and the olive grove, bathed in the light of the rising sun.
Like all our gites, its decor is uncluttered, with muted colours. Breathe in Provence and its unique scents.
The terrace overlooks the landscaped garden and boules court. A small paved path leads to the pool.


Birds have been of value to us across time in a myriad of spiritual, decorative, inspirational, practical, nutritional, agricultural, economic and environmental ways. They have given us lore and legend, inspiration and imagery, logos and leitmotivs, money and meat and everything science and insight to wonder and delight.
If we take a cursory glance at the ubiquity of birds in our lives —song, feathers, food and language —we will find that this relationship has engendered a rich tradition of cultural metaphors in every community and in every known era. Indeed, the reach of birds into the fabric of culture is beyond measure. From Dylan to Mozart, from Yeats to Picasso, from medieval paintings to Egyptian tombs, birds are there. From the Third Reich to the American coin, birds are there. Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, Poe's The Raven and Stravinsky's Firebird —all inspired by birds.
There are countless bird we hold in high regard —eagles, cranes, doves, nightingales, hummingbirds, egrets, owls but also white storks, great bustards and grey herons, cassowary, macaws, ostriches, turkeys, bleu peafowl —they are but just a handful of the 10,000 known species worldwide.
The presence of birds on all the world's continents —occupying practically every known ecosystem —makes them particularly vulnerable to human-induced threats such as habitat destruction. Twelve percent of all the world's birds now share a potential risk of extinction similar to the flightless great auk now extinct. It is predicted that over the next hundred years we will lose 1,200 species of birds —or one in eight.
What we do —or fail to do in the next ten years to protect wild birds and their habitats —will have enormous consequences for the survival of one of Earth's most lovely living treasures.
This is an excerpt from the CEMEX Conservation Series Book Gift of Nature (2012).

Q: Draw a box on an image, javascript only? What i want to do is have a user upload his image. When its complete it will display the image on the same page w/o refreshing. Here is the part i need to figure out, how do i have the user select a box in the image? so i can crop it when the user is done? (using ImageMagick).
If possible i would like a border for the user to stretch to edit the width and height. Then click within the rect to move around.

A: There's a ton of ways; including several pre-written plugins available through the web.
Are you using any frameworks?
Of the below, I've used Jcrop and Lasso.Crop and they've both worked out well.  Haven't tried the others.

Why is Medicare refusing to pay to remove surgical sponges?
The reason is simple and logical: it is a never event. There is no legitimate reason why a patient should leave the operating room with a surgical sponge, towel, or instrument left inside her body. These events should never happen. They only happen when someone is not being careful. In most cases responsibility falls with the nurse for failing to properly account for each sponge placed in the patient's body.
It is a basic principle of surgical nursing that prior to surgery the nurse must have an accurate count of the number of sponges in the surgical field. The nurse must keep an accurate count of the number of sponges placed in the patient's body during surgery and then count each sponge removed. Before the surgeon sews up the patient, it is the nurse's job to tell the surgeon if a sponge remains in the patient's body.
The complications of leaving sponges in a patient are serious. In most cases the patient will require further surgery with risks of anesthesia, infection, and even death. Even in the best case scenario the patient must go through a painful recovery and miss time from work and family activities.
At Williamson & Lavecchia, L.C. we have represented numerous patients who were injured because foreign objects were carelessly left in their bodies. Examples include hysterectomies, c-sections, and gall bladder removal. For more information please read our retained object practice page.
Unfortunately Virginia has a short statute of limitations so if you or a loved one was injured because a surgical object was not properly removed, please call us at (804) 288-1661 or contact us by email to discuss your legal rights.
