Q: Installing and start using virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper I have just recently installed virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper using pip install virtualenv and pip install virtualenvwrapper. I already had Python 2.7 installed on my computer, and I also installed Python 3.5. As far as I can see, both virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper.sh were stored in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin.
I am quite new to virtualenvs and would like an explanation as to how the virtual environments are connected to different versions of Python. What I mean by this is:

*

*Does it matter where the virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper.sh files were stored?

*From the installation guides I see that the ~/.home_profile is updated by setting source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh, but my virtualenvwrapper.sh file is stored specifically in the path mentioned above. Do I just have to change /usr/local/bin to /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin in order to get the same result?

*When working in a specific virtual environment, how can I most easily make sure that I use the intended version of Python?

How Nene's contract structure makes him an intriguing trade chip
Yossi Gozlan
Last week, it was reported that Rockets free-agent center Nene would return to the team. On Wednesday, the first details emerged of the deal's financial structure, which could have significant implications for Houston's trade possibilities later this season.
Prior to free agency, the 36-year-old veteran declined his $3.8-million player option for the 2019-20 season. It was a surprising move, to say the least, as he was unlikely to recoup that on the market.
Nene's original decision to turn down the option led to speculation that he was going to retire. When it was announced that he was returning for his 18th NBA season, it was widely assumed that it would be for the $2.6-million veteran minimum (at his experience level), which is $1.2 million less than what he could've earned.
The Rockets and notoriously creative GM Daryl Morey had to have been up to something, as none of that seemed to add up. On Wednesday, we started to get an answer.
Source: Nene's new contract with Houston will pay him the minimum over two years in base salary, with the second year non-guaranteed. Likely bonuses can take him up to $10 million in each season. Second year guarantee trigger date is February 15, 2020.https://t.co/4qo1kxBQHs
— Jeff Siegel (@jgsiegel) September 11, 2019
According to Jeff Siegel of Early Bird Rights, Nene signed a two-year deal with a minimum base salary that contains likely incentives that can increase his salary to $10 million in both seasons. The second year is completely non-guaranteed and Nene must be waived by Feb. 15, 2020, in order to clear his 2020-21 salary.
Nene will carry a $10 million cap hit throughout the season, thanks to the likely incentives attached to his contract. The incentives are attached because Nene achieved these milestones last season, but he may be less likely to actually hit them this season after Houston's offseason addition of fellow veteran big man Tyson Chandler, giving them an additional backup center.
Regardless, the Rockets can use Nene's $10 million cap hit as a trade chip to acquire a player who earns a similar salary.
Players that were free agents are eligible to be traded starting on Dec. 15, 2019. However, since only one year of Nene's contract is guaranteed, he is only eligible to be traded starting on Jan. 15, 2020.
Memphis continues to deny buyout to Rockets target Andre Iguodala
How Andre Iguodala could still be attainable for Houston
This becomes much easier for the Rockets to potentially acquire Grizzlies forward Andre Iguodala during the season. The Rockets have been targeting him as a potential buyout candidate, but they most likely need to acquire him via trade since the Grizzlies reportedly do not intend on buying him out.
With Nene's contract, Houston wouldn't need to part with any of its core to match salaries for Iguodala's $17.2 million contract.
Players that miss out on likely incentives only have their cap hits corrected for at the end of the season. This would allow a team that acquires Nene to not only get an expiring contract (provided they waive him prior to his guarantee date), but would also get savings at the end of the season, assuming Nene doesn't earn his incentives.
Rockets current 2019-20 cap sheet.
For the time being, the Rockets are over both the luxury tax and apron. This makes it unlikely that they will utilize the remainder of their non-taxpayer mid-level exception (NT-MLE), since doing so would hard-cap them. They would be hard-capped if they utilize $5.7 million of it. So far, they've only used $3.5 million on Danuel House Jr.
It will be interesting to see if this contract structure will inspire more similar machinations in the future. It will also be interesting to see how the rest of the league responds, and if it will be a topic for a potential rule change during the league's next Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) negotiations.

This weekend, I was a little busy. Thursday night, we went to visit my brother and his family out in western NY. We arrived rather late that night and my niece SG was sleeping. Thanks to this, the kids saw her at breakfast the next morning. Here, they bonded over cereal while we planned what to do on the rainy day since cherry picking was out.
When we got home, it was time for Uncle I to go to work for a little while. The kids played and even baby BA enjoyed tummy time fun with a little help from the bigger kids.
Saturday morning, Nana and Papa came to join us. As we started our journey to the cherry picking place, we had to stop and go back home. JSL decided to add some fun and excitement to the day. He was drinking water, started to gag – and well let's just say he needed a change of clothing. We made our way to the cherry orchard and all you could see were trees chock full of cherries of all kinds. They were gorgeous. Before we knew it, we had picked a LOT of cherries. More about that coming soon. Here are a few photos of the cherry picking group and our delicious finds.
After this, we wandered at a Pirate Festival by Lake Ontario.
The views were gorgeous and the kids even enjoyed looking at the water below.
Once we had lunch, we wandered back to the house. The kids played outside for a while, we all had dinner and then it was time for bed. Sunday, we stayed until after lunch and then it was time to head home. It really was sad to say goodbye to Uncle I, Aunt M, SG and BA. We had a wonderful weekend with my brother and his family. The kids had so much fun together we can not wait to see them again.
Looks like so much fun. :) My cousins were my very best friends growing up. Something special about that relationship as kids.

COMMENT | Vital for older population to maintain physical, emotional health during MCO
Darren Atkinson
Published 30 Apr 2020, 3:01 am
COMMENT | The movement control order (MCO) has been extended for the third time and we are now into its fourth phase as the government tries to contain the Covid-19 pandemic in the country.
These lockdown measures, while necessary, are causing major disruptions to our daily activities in work, business, social life and even plans for the future.
As people are now spending most of their time at home, there can be a significant drop in physical activity. For Malaysia's warga emas, these movement restrictions also mean a long pause on certain activities that promote healthy ageing.
Older persons (65 and above) who make up 6.9 percent of Malaysia's population and considered to be in the high-risk group, have been advised to avoid going out to public places during this time to protect against infections.
The walks in the park, qi gong and ballroom dancing sessions in the mornings that our seniors look forward to each day are now put on pause, cutting off their daily exercise routines and social interaction activities with friends they daily meet from the neighbourhood.
The sending and picking-up of the grandchildren from school will also be put on hold until further notice.
While these are routine activities, they are meaningful ways to spend time for our senior citizens.
The Malaysian Healthy Ageing Society (MHAS) is concerned that the sudden drop in activities due to the restrictions under the MCO may affect the physical, mental and emotional health of our older population more seriously than others if continued for longer periods.
"It is important for older persons to find ways to stay active physically, mentally and spiritually during this time to continue to age healthily," said its president Dr Wong Teck Wee.
Watch blood sugar and blood pressure levels
"A sudden drop in physical activity can potentially cause many health issues for older adults such as spikes in blood sugar levels and hypertensive readings in blood pressure.
"Muscles must be used daily to help pump blood or the heart will have to work harder" added Wong, who is also a practising consultant interventional cardiologist.
"At this age, too much pressure should not be put on the heart to perform. That's why daily light to moderate physical activities and exercises are encouraged for people 65 years and above. We still need the exercise, but not excessively" he said.
MHAS recommends that some light exercises daily be continued but in the house compound to maintain heart health.
Mobility to maintain independence
Maintaining mobility is also a concern.
"Older persons must keep moving. Exercise for the joints and muscles are extremely important to maintain mobility, stability and functionality in older persons" said Professor Nathan Vytialingam, an advisor to MHAS and the Dean of the Perdana School of Occupational Therapy.
"Independence is a high priority for our older citizens. Being physically independent enables older persons to continue to perform meaningful occupation such as cooking, housework, going for walks, gardening and dancing.
"This independence improves the quality of life of older persons."
Fatal falls a worry
While it is important for older persons to maintain mobility, stability is equally important.
Persons aged 65-years-old and above are also at higher risk for falls.
"Globally, falls are a major public health problem" said consultant geriatrician Professor Dr Tan Maw Pin, who also is a council member with MHAS.
"According to the World Health Organisation, an estimated 646,000 fatal falls occur each year, making it the second leading cause of unintentional injury death, after road traffic injuries."
Over 80 percent of fall-related fatalities occur in low and middle-income countries, with regions of the Western Pacific and Southeast Asia accounting for 60 percent of these deaths.
"In all regions of the world, death rates are highest among adults over the age of 60," Tan said.
"Unfortunately, during these times, falls in older persons may also increase. Urgent medical attention must be sought. You should still go to hospital or visit a doctor if you have had a fall.
"The drop in physical activity from more time spent at home are a concern as older persons may develop mobility and stability issues that can put them at risk for falls" she added.
She noted, however, that while older persons are encouraged to keep moving, they must be careful not to overdo it.
In Malaysia, the National Health and Morbidity Survey in Older Persons in 2018 shows that 15 percent of all older Malaysians fall at least once a year. Half of those who fell sustained injuries and 20 percent required hospital treatment.
Falls can result in hip fractures and head injury as well as serious psychological problems among older people.
The University of Malaya Life After Falls research project has come up with an assessment and treatment strategy which can be delivered through the telephone or video calls.
This service is for those who have fallen in the past two months and are unable to get to a doctor. A falls hotline at 011 5505 3255 has been set up for those who wish to book an appointment.
Stay in touch with loved ones
Mental health of older persons during the MCO is also a major concern.
"Loneliness and isolation is a known risk factor for depression and anxiety in the older person. Interaction with friends, relatives or neighbours can stimulate mental and emotional wellbeing" said Professor Philip George, a consultant psychiatrist and past president of MHAS.
"Older persons should try to keep in touch with friends to overcome any feelings of loneliness.
"Take advantage of the time now to call up old friends and keep in touch with them" he suggested.
"Social media can be a useful tool in keeping in touch with loved ones and friends and this can be something to embrace at this time.
"The MCO can be a time to learn new ways to communicate on social media and this, too, can keep the mind active. Learning new things will also help improve memory and promote mental alertness."
He, however, advises limited time on devices such as the TV, mobile phone, laptops or tablets as excessive screen time can also lead to vision and sleep problems.
Eat right to maintain health
Maintaining a healthy diet should also be a high priority and adjustments may need to be made to remain healthy.
"A whole-food, plant-based diet is highly recommended to maintain good health however, we should still avoid overeating," said Wong.
"A whole-food, plant-based diet is more nutritious and complete if it contains enough beans, mushrooms, fresh vegetables and legumes."
Fibre is also very important as constipation is a common digestive issue among older persons. Wong explained that older persons can experience digestive issues due to a sudden drop in physical activity.
"An increased vegetable intake, a moderate amount of fruit and less sugars and carbohydrates are recommended to maintain overall good health and healthy weight management," he said.
"For older persons with diabetes and hypertension, it will be important to keep taking the prescribed medication and keep to the strict diet recommended by the doctor."
We advise those dependent on medication to collect at least three month's supply of medication in advance to avoid or limit anyone going out to public places during this time as has been advised by the authorities.
Get vaccinated to prevent influenza and pneumonia
While Covid-19 is the biggest global threat to health now, prevention against other health issues should not be ignored. Professor Nathan Vytialingam, who is also on the advisory council with the Global Coalition on Ageing advises that older persons consider vaccination to safeguard themselves against H1N1 influenza and pneumonia.
"These preventable illnesses can be more serious for older persons. It would be timely now for the pharmaceutical industry along with NGOs to play a part in educating the public on the importance of vaccination" he said, adding that adult vaccination is a driver of healthy ageing.

What's Really Happening to the Monarchs?
Posted in News Story | Tagged Faculty
Assistant Professor of Biology Leslie Ries's research challenges the current understanding of the decline of Monarch butterflies. Photo by Kuna Malik Hamad.
September 29, 2015—Popular media will tell you that Monarch butterflies are disappearing. But Assistant Professor of Biology Leslie Ries recently found that decades of data show a more complex story.
Trained as a field ecologist, Ries is interested in understanding conservation and large-scale landscape issues. "Butterflies turn out to be a great model system for understanding different areas of biology," she explained. Ries calls Monarchs an "indicator species." Monarchs respond quickly to changes in climate and landscape. "So you can look at how they are responding as a barometer for how other communities might respond," she continued.
Monarch butterfly populations live all over the world, but recent research has highlighted the decline of the Monarchs that migrate to Mexico each winter. These Monarchs have a multigenerational migration cycle. Each spring, the first generation of butterflies lays eggs in the southern part of the United States. The next generation spreads out over the northern half of the United States and Canada. At the end of the summer, the last generation stops breeding and migrates to a few mountaintops in central Mexico. "As far as I know, there's no other species that ends up in such a small, concentrated overwintering ground," Ries explained.
Researchers have seen a decline in the winter populations in Mexico, but there has been little research on the butterflies during the summer months. To fill this gap, Ries searched for the best data source to understand the "large-scale patterns" of these butterflies. Ries could have used a traditional research route, collecting her own data for two to three years and then providing an analysis of those data. But limiting data collection to a few years would have meant limiting the scale of her research questions. So she turned to decades of data collected by citizen-science programs.
A natural affinity for butterflies, and Monarchs in particular, has led individuals to identify, collect, and study butterflies with programs such as the North American Butterfly Association (NABA). Bird researchers have drawn on citizen-science data from similar organizations, like the Audubon Society, for years. "I knew there were a lot of citizen-science programs focused on butterflies, but I hadn't seen a lot of research out of them," Ries said. "I found it was a really underused data source. We don't think there's any other species that's so meticulously monitored."
Ries started by helping citizen-science programs transfer data to useable formats for researchers. She often found data scribbled in notebooks and stashed away in boxes. But with these data she was able to conduct the first large-scale analysis of Monarch data from the United States and Canada.
If Monarch populations were truly disappearing, Ries thought, the populations should also be declining in the United States and Canada. But that's not what Ries found. "When you look at the summer data, you don't see the declines, which is not what you would expect," she said. This research led her to two possible conclusions: "the population in the summering grounds are declining and we just aren't detecting it or they are not making it down to Mexico," she explained.
According to Ries, past research has produced the dominant story that modern agricultural practices are killing milkweed—the Monarchs' main source of food—leading to a decline in Monarch populations. Ries believes that explanation may be too simple, although she encourages butterfly enthusiasts to plant milkweed. "Conservation decisions are being made on this simple story rather than the complex one. We don't even know the complex story."
In her own work, Ries focuses on understanding community responses through particular traits. She looks at population responses, species interactions, and landscape changes. Monarchs need milkweed for food, but they also need nectar plants. Global climate change, Ries says, has caused changes in the timing of certain plants, which may not align with the migratory cycle of Monarchs. By studying which traits lead to a species doing well or poorly, Ries hopes to learn "how to buffer the impacts of these global changes."
In her next research projects, Ries plans to explore what is really happening to the Monarch populations. Citizen-science programs, Ries says, help her by providing valuable scientific data that she wouldn't be able to collect on her own. "With the Monarch butterfly, on a very large scale, we are able to look at mechanisms and dynamics that we would never be able to look at for other species."
Ries's recent research, The Disconnect Between Summer and Winter Monarch Trends for the Eastern Migratory Population, was recently published in the Annals of the Entomological Society of America.

THE STATS YOU NEED TO KNOW
More goals on the road for the Hatters
The stats you need to know after the Town's fourth away win of the season on Sunday.
18 – In what was their eighth League 2 away game of the season, the Town's two goals at Dagenham were their 17th and 18th goals away from home this term. Last season, in the 23 away games, the Hatters managed just 17.
1 – The Town kept their first clean sheet away from home of the season and their first since a goalless draw away to Dagenham in April at the end of last season. With two goals the Hatters have now scored in all but one of their 20 matches in all competitions this season - the 1-0 home defeat to Bristol Rovers.
19 – Luke Guttridge scored his 19th goal for the Hatters in what was his 72nd appearance in Luton colours. It was only the fourth goal he has scored for the Town away from Kenilworth Road.
180 – Midfielder Alex Lawless made his first League start of the season at Victoria Road to make his 180th appearance for the Hatters. He also scored in his first League start last year in the 2-0 win over Southend.
50 – Cameron McGeehan came on as a late second half substitute in the victory for his 50th appearance for the club.
130 – The Hatters marked the anniversary weekend of the club's first competitive match 130 years ago with their 2,108th win – their first ever in a League fixture away to Dagenham. Although the Town had won a League Cup tie at Victoria Road, they had previously drawn and lost on their previous visits for League fixtures.
13th – Having begun Sunday's game in 18th place the Town shot up to 13th in the League 2 standings with three points. The result now leaves the Hatters now six points shy of the third automatic promotion place.

Kenya to arm private security guards after al-Shabab attack
UCHENNA CHUKWU Reply Saturday, January 19, 2019 A+ A-
http://www.hrlnews.com/2019/01/kenya-to-arm-private-security-guards.html
Kenya has announced that it will arm private security officers guarding public places in the aftermath of Tuesday's attack on a luxury hotel and office complex.
The siege, which lasted 18 hours and left 21 people dead, was claimed by the al-Qaeda-linked Somalia-based armed group, al-Shabab.
Armed contractors will "guard key installations" where there is "a lot of human traffic", Fazul Mahamed, director general of the Private Security Regulatory Authority, said in a media briefing late on Friday.
At least two security guards were among the dead in Tuesday's attack at the Dusit hotel complex in Nairobi.
Private security companies, which have long called on the government to allow them to issue guns to security guards, welcomed the decision.
"We feel safer now. This is something we have been calling for," said Abdirahman Mohamed, managing director of Ismax Security, which employs more than 1,000 security officers.
"Earlier, when responding to a security situation, we had to call for the police and that was not convenient as it took a long time," he told Al Jazeera.
'Reflexive response'
Security experts, however, have voiced concern over the haste with which the government is acting.
"This is a poor move…It is a reflexive response," Abdullahi Boru, a Horn of Africa security expert, told Al Jazeera.
"It will double the number of arms in private hands, which could backfire in the long run," he continued, adding: "It further demonstrates once again, how Kenyan authorities think they can fight terrorism using force."
The government has said the security guards will have to go through a rigorous six-month-long compulsory training course on handling guns before they are issued firearms.
The attack on the Dusit hotel complex was not the first time the Kenyan capital has been targeted by gunmen from al-Shabab.
In September 2013, fighters from the group attacked the Westgate shopping mall in a four-day-long siege that left more than 65 people dead.

Q: My PieChart doesn't updated, when data changed I am trying to make a VueJs chart, when I add the data, The props pass correctly to the PieChart component but it doesn't reflect on PieChart. Only changes reflect when I try to change something on VScode and save it that it appears suddenly.
I am trying to make, when I added the data, the PieChart component should update itself directly and show the updated value on the chart.
The data comes from here from an API
   async created() {
    this.loaded = false;

    try {
      const response = await fetch(

      const data = await response.json();
      await data.forEach(element => {
        // console.log(element.symbol, element.lastPrice);
        this.chartData.symbols = [...this.chartData.symbols, element.symbol];
        // We take the volume
        this.chartData.price = [...this.chartData.price, +element.lastPrice];
      });

      // console.log(this.chartData.symbols);
      this.loaded = true;

Recently released CCTV footage shows a cafe worker being robbed at gunpoint while reacting extremely calmly.
The usual response to having a gun put in your face would be to hand over the money immediately, but Jimmy John's Assistant Manager Tuker Murray just met him with a death stare.
The shocking video shows the robber ordering his food normally before pulling a gun out of his hoodie and shoving it in Tuker's face late on Wednesday night in Kansas City.
After a couple of death stares, Tuker handed over the cash but also called the robber an 'amateur'.
I honestly didn't want to give it to him but my manager was behind me, he was like 'we'll give it to you, we'll give it to you'.
I gave it all to him and there was a dollar still sitting on here and he said 'give me all of it' and then I picked up the till and tried to give it to him.
Tuker seemed to just roll his eyes in the face of a gun, his bravery is impressive.
It's the ultimate insult as a robber if the person you are trying to terrorise calls you an amateur.
A suspect has reportedly been apprehended thanks to tips from the community, and Jimmy John's tweeted the police with their gratitude.


SCVHistory.com LW2989 | 1962 Placerita Fire | Man Flees from Placerita Canyon Fire, 8-28-1962.
August 28, 1962 — Near Olive View Sanitarium in Sylmar, a man flees from a fast-moving fire that started earlier in the day at Circle J Ranch and blew through Placerita Canyon, taking out Gene Autry's Western town at Melody Ranch before dropping down into northeastern San Fernando Valley.

Shows resident with only belongings in 1962 Placerita Canyon fire.
FLIGHT FROM FIRE — A resident in area adjoining fire-swept Olive View Sanitarium flees with an armload of belongings as fire jumps across Foothill Blvd. In the background, a policeman tries to move a parked car.
[L.A. Times, July 14, 1998] — Ben Olender, award-winning Times photographer for three decades who specialized and delighted in recording sports events, has died. He was 72.
Olender, who shot for The Times from 1958 until 1986, died Thursday at his home in Palm Springs, his family said.
In February, the versatile photographer received a lifetime achievement award from the Press Photographers Assn. of Greater Los Angeles. He had served three terms on the organization's board and was its president in 1970.
In 1973, Olender was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize for his photograph of a Vietnam prisoner of war greeting his 9-year-old daughter upon his return to the United States and freedom. The photographer considered that image his finest work, his son, Don, said.
Olender received several awards for his sports photography, including the 1968 and 1978 best sports photo award from the Greater Los Angeles Press Club and the 1970 best sports photo award from the California/Nevada Associated Press.
Born June 1, 1926, in Wyandotte, Mich., Olender grew up in Syracuse, N.Y. After serving as a Marine turret gunner in the South Pacific during World War II, he bought his first camera and put it to use for the Syracuse Herald-Journal.
In 1949, the Associated Press offered him a job in Los Angeles. He next spent eight years as chief photographer for the Pasadena Star-News before joining The Times.
Olender is survived by his wife, Dolores "Dodie" Warren; his five children, Dave, Don, Denise, Dan and Dorothy, and eight grandchildren.
Funeral services are scheduled at 10 a.m. today in Palm Springs Mortuary in Cathedral City, with burial at 2:30 p.m. in Veterans National Cemetery in Riverside.
The family has asked that any memorial donations be made to the American Heart Assn.

Home Industry News Persimmon: 'A note of caution, but £1.2bn in the bank'
Persimmon: 'A note of caution, but £1.2bn in the bank'
Anwyl homes Carrs Rise, Prescot . Picture Mandy Jones
Persimmon plc, one of the UK's leading housebuilders today updated the market on its 2020 trading performance.
Like other housebuilders Persimmon saw sales interrupted by the pandemic, followed by a strong bounce-back once sites were able to reopen on a covid-safe basis.
The group saw selling prices to private buyers rise by 3.7% over the year, with the group average sold price rising by 7%, reflecting a reduced proportion of lower-priced social housing in the mix.
Overall Persimmon sold 13,575 homes (2019: 15,855), a decline of 14%, but sales to private buyers were only reduced by 9%. The group's forward sales position at year end rose by 25% to £1.7bn, backed by £1.2bn of cash in the bank (2019: £1.4bn). The group sounded a note of caution in its outlook, referring to a lower pace of activity in recent weeks, in part due to a December change in the government's Help to Buy scheme.
Commenting on the results, Steve Clayton, Manager of the HL Select UK Income Shares fund, which holds a position in Persimmon said: "Persimmon enjoyed a strong bounce-back when pandemic-driven restrictions on trading were lifted mid-year. Since then it has bolstered its balance sheet through robust cash generation and a forward sales position of roughly half a year's expected revenues.
"At this stage, with the end of the stamp duty holiday in sight, taking a cautious view of the immediate outlook is the right approach, but we have seen more bullish outlooks from some of the group's rivals. Persimmon have also left investors waiting until their full year results in early March for news on the group's dividend intentions. So perhaps no surprise then to see the shares a little weaker in early trading".

Are These Rules Making Your Life Worse?
Tools to quiet your mind so you can create an epic life, that is filled with Enlightened Prosperity.
There are certain rules that make you feel trapped. I promise you that these rules are NOT real. But that doesn't matter. You follow them blindly. And when you do, it makes your life worse and robs you of a quiet mind.
On this video, I want to help you release this hidden motive to survive called Illogical Rules.
Illogical Rules cause you to feel disrupted. They don't have any real consequence in the world, but for some unconscious reason, they feel very important.
When you follow Illogical Rules, you sink into the energy of against, wrong, have to, need to, should, and must. Rather than having peace, you experience the negativity of arrogance. One second you are flowing, and the next moment you are caught up in superiority, egotism, and pushing against something or someone.

Thank you for inviting me to open the Copenhagen Consensus Conference 2008.
Copenhagen Consensus is a simple, but powerful idea: The world faces a number of serious challenges. We only have limited means to solve them. Where should we start?
The ambition of Copenhagen Consensus is to provide the knowledge to make this prioritization. Indeed Copenhagen Consensus is based on a strong belief that knowledge matters. That research and information can be used in practical decision making. And that it should be used.
This is a belief that I share. No problem has ever been solved by throwing money at it. We must prioritize carefully. We must base our decisions on solid knowledge.
We owe this to the millions of people all over the world who struggle with hunger, disease and war.
And Copenhagen Consensus provides us with a positive message: That to many of the worlds' serious problems there do exist good solutions.
Because the results of Copenhagen Consensus are so concrete, and because they are based on solid knowledge, the results provide a valuable insight for politicians. An insight that is in fact used by policy makers.
This is the experience from the first Copenhagen Consensus conference. In 2004 the Copenhagen Consensus expert panel assigned the highest priority to new measures to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS.
This led the Danish Government to increase the amount spent on activities to combat HIV/AIDS. In the following year 2005 we decided to increase spending on HIV/AIDS within our development assistance up to 500 million Danish kroner.
Copenhagen Consensus has not only inspired the Danish government. There has been an outstanding interest all over the world.
In 2006 the Copenhagen Consensus Center arranged a prioritization conference with a number of UN ambassadors. In 2007 the centre arranged a prioritization conference in Latin America. And I understand that a number of countries in Africa are interested in your approach.
Copenhagen Consensus has not only created concrete political results. It has also initiated a heated debate. And this is not just because the name of the Director is Bjørn Lomborg. No, it is in particular because your ideas are concrete and useful. That is what politicians need in the difficult process of decision-making and prioritization.
Of course, seeking an informed foundation for decision making does not mean that responsibility for political priorities can be handed over to professors of economics and Nobel laureates. Political decision-making and prioritization remains the duty of responsible governments.
And let there be no doubt about the position of my government when it comes to the challenge of making priorities: We are fully aware of our responsibility to take difficult decisions. And we are aware that solid knowledge is a precondition in order to make the right choice.
Our development aid to Africa is a clear example of prioritization. Denmark is among the top donors of development assistance. And we will further increase our assistance over the coming years. The aim of the Danish government is that 2/3 of our bilateral assistance will be directed to Africa.
Africa faces major challenges. But we are also witnessing significant positive progress. Such as continuing growth and improvements when it comes to good governance in many African countries. My hope is to see an Africa where freedom, democracy, peace and development prevail.
Still, there is a need for a more effective international development cooperation with Africa. To this end, I have established an Africa Commission, which will present its recommendations in May next year.
I have no doubt that the Copenhagen Consensus results will be a valuable resource to make use of in the work of the Africa Commission.
During recent years we have witnessed dramatic effects of climate upheaval. The evidence from the UN Climate Change Panel is convincing. I believe the case for action is strong. The conclusions are clear: Global warming is a fact. And man made emissions are the primary cause.
I sincerely believe that we must take climate change – and its effects – very seriously indeed. And that global climate change requires a global solution.
That is why Denmark has offered to host the global climate change conference in Copenhagen in 2009.
One thing is clear: If we are to tackle climate change we will need to cut green house gas emissions. We must reduce our dependency on fossil fuels.
There is one more essential reason why we need to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels: security.
Unfortunately, the world's free societies rely heavily on imported oil and gas, often from unstable countries and regions. Each and every year huge amounts of wealth is transferred from the world's democracies to dubious regimes with questionable ideas of freedom and democracy.
We then become vulnerable when these regimes use their oil exports as a foreign policy tool. By curbing our dependency on fossil fuel imports, we will become more robust and less exposed to the whims of others.
We must break our addiction to oil. We need a new industrial revolution based on climate-friendly technologies. A new green industrial revolution. A new green global economy.
The challenge is to reduce our fossil fuel consumption while maintaining economic growth and prosperity. For developing countries because they have a right to fight poverty by increasing their economic growth. For industrialized countries because only continued economic growth will give us resources and technology to combat climate change.
We need to make a transition to a low-carbon economy.
However, this transition must take place in a cost-efficient way. We must prioritize. We must make sure that we take those measures that will benefit climate, environment and security the most.
I am looking forward to the results of the Copenhagen Consensus 2008. I understand that this year you will also focus on women and development, air pollution, terrorism and peace keeping operations.
I look forward to getting inspired by your ideas and recommendations. On how we best can improve the conditions of millions of people all over the world.
I wish you a fruitful and enlightening Conference.

Charleston driver was extracted from his car by emergency workers after a collision
Car accidents create situations where there may be several types of liability depending on the parties involved. After someone is injured, it is important to get legal advice to discuss the possibility of a lawsuit and determine how the victim's expenses will be paid. Without professional advice, it may be difficult to obtain the maximum amount of compensation allowed by law.
Emergency workers had to assist an accident victim who was trapped in his car after a crash in Charleston, South Carolina.
Driver gets pinned inside his car after it flips over
The local fire department responded to the area of Highway 17 at Timmons Acres in Charleston County. They believe that one vehicle rolled over after a collision with another car, and one of the occupants was trapped inside.
News reports confirmed that the man inside was eventually removed. The lanes on Highway 17 were also blocked for a period of time while police and emergency services worked in the area. There were no specifics reported regarding the extent of the victim's injuries, or whether he required hospitalization. Police in the Charleston area confirmed that they would conduct a full investigation to get more details regarding the initial cause of the accident and any associated damage.
Determining liability and attempting to win a lawsuit
In a situation like this, there may be liability for the driver at fault. Government workers who assist also have a duty of care to ensure that they do not make a victim's injuries worse. In any personal injury lawsuit, the plaintiff's lawyer needs to prove that the defendant was the actual cause of medical problems, financial losses, and other types of damage. This is usually done through a combination of evidence collected from the accident scene as well as testimony from witnesses or those who are experts in accident reconstruction. The case will be resolved as more information becomes available through the discovery process. Sometimes this is done through a settlement agreement, while the parties will take their chances at trial if they cannot agree on a monetary amount or other important details.
Can an emergency worker be sued for a mistake?
For emergency workers, there is normally a medical standard of care that requires them to follow certain procedures. The plaintiff will have to prove that the worker, government agency, or company responsible for the worker acted negligently or committed malpractice in some manner. There must also be damages which can be shown through something like an aggravated injury or additional health problems caused directly by the rescue workers. As a procedural matter, the government, ambulance company, the individual EMT, and others may initially be attached to a lawsuit. Some of these parties may be detached from the legal proceedings as fault becomes more clear.
There have also been lawsuits against ambulance companies or the local government that operates emergency services for things like excessive delays after a 911 call. An excessive wait time can cause issues like lack of blood flow to the brain and other traumatic injuries. Workers can make mistakes even after arrival, that results in damaged bones or paralysis if a victim in a sensitive situation is not handled properly.
The complexity of diagnosing medical problems
When an accident related injury results in a specific kind of long term health issue or trauma, it may be necessary to retain someone with extensive knowledge in the field to prove causation and describe the injury properly, as well as verify the significant costs associated with long term treatment. Some law firms routinely work with doctors and retain them as expert witnesses at trial for these reasons. They are usually very skilled at explaining complex medical problems to a jury after testifying in a number of cases during their years of experience.
Before an expert witness can appear at trial, there will need to be a separate hearing to verify their credentials and field of practice. This is required by the rules of evidence, because expert witnesses can give opinions to the jury and give other kinds of testimony that normal witnesses cannot due to evidentiary rules about speculation. This hearing can include details about education, publications, work history, and prior trials or legal experience. The judge has to make the final decision whether the witness will be allowed to testify as an expert or not. If they are not found to be an expert based on their credentials, the party calling this person cannot allow them to give opinions or testify about certain other technical aspects of the case.
