Will this be the year of the CDO? It looks that way based on recent conversations we've had. The time has come for a data advocate in the C-suite.
I previously wrote about my 5 predictions for BI and Big Data in 2016, and the emergence of the CDO is at the top of my list.
There is no mistaking the ever greater demand for data — good and usable data for a variety of purposes. The demand is growing fast for data to sharpen focus on customers, help make internal processes run leaner, and to lend certainty to strategic decisions, to name a few. Yet too often the right data can't be harnessed and remains untapped.
CDOs and higher revenue seem to go together. A study by the research firm Forrester, cited in Information Week, found that 54% of companies with 10% year-over-year revenue growth or more have a CDO, while only 33% of companies with less than 4% revenue growth have one. The causation may not be clear yet, but the correlation couldn't be clearer.
Under a CDO's guidance, an organization can achieve the kind of agility to really make use of all its data, to make data a part of so many more decisions, all of which drives ROI.
But how will CDOs fulfill the promise? Our conversations turn up a consistent set of strategies.
An effective data infrastructure is designed around the agile nature of companies to give maximum flexibility at every stage of the data supply chain, from storage to use in analytics tools or other business applications.
Hadoop alone cannot make a Big Data project successful, but agility in data storage is the foundation for scaling big. To get the most out of an organization's data, the infrastructure must be designed with the end game in mind. Data needs to flow seamlessly into business intelligence and predictive analytics tools as well as custom business applications.
Data Visualization – Create dashboards and reports with business intelligence and data visualization tools.
The storage layer is agile with Hadoop, and the data analytics and visualization tools have become easily accessible. It's the data supply chain that needs attention — the flow of data sources to data consumers. It's a slow, manual process.
The top-of-mind question for CDOS is: what is the cost of not fully understanding your organization's data landscape?
The ability to find, understand, and correlate disparate data sources and provision applications with structured, semi-structured and unstructured information in an automated, efficient way changes the game.
Not only that, a solid understanding of the data landscape enables CDOs to distribute resources appropriately. Some data gets used every day and merits a place on expensive hardware. Other data gets called only now and then, which earns it only a spot on low cost storage.
The promise of data democratization is nothing short of transformative. The sooner the data supply chain can be streamlined, and the data democratized for the waiting data consumers, the sooner that data becomes a strategic asset. When self-service data discovery becomes a reality, analytics will take a fraction of the time. Productivity will be transformed, and executives will be able to leverage the best information and act with certainty.

This image is by one of my all time favorite photographers, Joel-Peter Witkin.
I've been following his work for around 20 years. The second I saw his work I was totally mesmerized but there's very little middle-ground in terms of liking Witkin's work, you will like it or not. For me, the attention to detail, the fabulous compositions, the very unusual subject matter that he has photographed for decades, and his mastery of printing make him one of my all time favorite photographers.

1) No particular advice. I was able to start out pretty much because I was prepared for it by schooling and my own study.
2) Lifelong learning. Lorde had read a thousand books by the age of 12. I hadn't read that many by the time I picked up a guitar for the first time at age 18 but I had read top notch literature—Hermann Hesse, Shakespeare, Yeats, T. S. Eliot, Baudelaire, Yevtushenko, Gunther Grass, even Nietzsche and Adorno. I was musically literate from playing oboe, violin and piano while at school, and I familiarized myself with almost everything of canonical status in classical music that I could access in the public library. When I started writing songs I had amassed a lot of ammunition to be able to do it.
1: Advice I wish I had: Stick to what you know is right. In your gut you will know what you like... stay true to your gut feelings... this applies in songwriting and music business.
2: Advice for now: Understand that music is an emotive medium and consequently people will get worked up over your music. They will "own" it. So, let it go. Get out and play to as many people as you can. Focus on this and the "industry" will follow.
1. No advice would have really altered my path back then. I chose music because it was in my DNA and I had and continue to have, a wonderful experience with it.
1 - no matter how tough it seems or no matter how many rejections you face - you never give up. You keep on going and you keep on doing it.
Question # 2 - the same. Additional notes I think the main thing to remember is that the "lorde: experience is one in a billion - worldwide. The reality for 1000's of other artist's is that its a long road that takes many twists and turns.It's OK to have high expectations but unrealistic one will soon devour any enthusiasms. Bite sized goals with the big one at the end seem to get to where you want to go without being disillusioned and get a backup job.
1"When I was first starting out in my singing, the advise that I would have liked to hear would have been ...''Just have fun'' . And if I was worried and nervous I would have liked to have been told... ''just do your best in a moment. Mistakes happen, but as long as you have done your best, you walk off that stage feeling proud, cause you deserve to"
1 We needed to know that playing live was the most important initial momentum. That playing live ALL the time was crucial. We didn't realise the benefit of this till we got to Australia when we played about 5-7 times a week instead of 5-7 times a year as we did in nZ. Also we needed to know that recording sessions need producers and that taking 'responsibility' in the studio is the domain of experienced wise ears!!!!
1The advice I would have liked is in a band situation the best thing to do is split royalties evenly - this ensures the right thing for the song happens and ensures longevity and prevents jealousy and ego getting in the way once the act is successful.
2Advice now - read the Secret and use the law of attraction to create your ideal future.
2 and advice I'd give is pretty much that. But I'd also say to be true to yourself. Don't write or perform just to please others. A crowd or audience will see through it. You have to be truthful with what you present. That's what creates a connection between you and the listener. Hamish Mckenzie Not Phased, solo artist"

The Minister of Political and Public Affairs, Hon. Nanette Thomas and the Head of Mission, International Organization for Migration (IOM), Mr. Sanusi Savage are in Kampala, Uganda to attend the 3rd PAN-AFRICAN FORUM ON MIGRATION (PAFoM III) on the Theme: "Towards an African Common Position on the Global Compact on Migration" 15 – 17 May 2017; Kampala - Uganda.
The Third Pan African Forum on Migration (PAFoM) started Tuesday in Kampala and ends on the 17 May, 2017 under the theme; "Towards an African Common Position on the Global Compact on Migration".
This PAFoM is designed to complement the upcoming regional consultations towards development of the Global Compact on Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) and is intended to be an open and all-inclusive platform for dialogue. It is expected to bring together national and regional perspectives and effective practices of all relevant stakeholders including Senior Government Officials from relevant ministries responsible for foreign affairs, development, justice, home affairs, immigration, humanitarian response, labor and social affairs, climate change from AU member states for a whole of government approach.
The Forum will also provide a platform for Regional Consultations which will take place as part of the preparatory process of the GCM; bringing together regional/sub-regional (RECs) bodies and institutions, UN Agencies and International Organizations and other entities including CSOs, private sector, employers' organizations, migrants, diaspora, academia, trade unions, and non-state actors for a comprehensive whole of Society approach to migration governance and the global compact on migration.
The modalities for drafting the GCM, agreed upon through a modalities resolution, involved a series of intergovernmental negotiations. The GCM is intended to set out a range of principles, commitments and understandings among Member States regarding international migration and all of its dimensions. The Global Compact is expected to make an important contribution to global governance and enhance coordination on international migration as it would present a framework for comprehensive international cooperation on migrants and human mobility in addition to dealing with all aspects of international migration, including the humanitarian, developmental, employment, human rights-related and other aspects of migration.
The modalities resolution envisages that the RECs and sub-regional bodies, together with other entities in the UN system, and in particular IOM, will organize discussions among member states and other relevant stakeholders on regional and sub-regional dimensions to provide national and regional perspectives and inputs to the GCM negotiations.
A Draft Outcome Document towards African Common Position with Policy Recommendations for consideration and adoption at the 28th Ordinary Session of the African Union in January, 2018; as Africa's inputs to the negotiations on the Global Compact on Migration.
It is the third of the Intra-Regional Consultations on Migration in Africa. This Forum is co-organized by the African Union, government of Uganda, IGAD and IOM in collaboration with the UNECA with ILO, ECOWAS, EAC and SADC as Co-sponsors.
About one hundred and fifty (150) Senior Officials and experts will be drawn from ministries and institutions responsible for Immigration, Trade, Labour, Foreign Affairs & Regional Integration, National Security, National Planning & Development, Gender and Youth and Disaster management.

The two christian crosses are a few miles apart, both can easily be seen from the A4119 a little west from Pontypridd.
The Trelaw cross was constructed in 2005 by Glyn Thomas, "A friend of mine made me promise that when he died I'd scatter his ashes on the mountain; whoever goes first will scatter the other's ashes. "Quite a lot of people have scattered ashes on the mountain and put wreaths up there." A resting place and mark of respect "I just thought I'd mark the spot and it could only be with a cross. It's a permanent resting place, a mark of respect for the Trealaw boys of my age."
The Penygraig Cross history is currently unknown, any information appreciated but I assume it is some sort of memorial.

recruiting | Blog Abandoned, it weeps.
A few weeks ago I got an email from Carl. I don't know Carl. But he had been reading my blog and asked if I would share a link to his site on my blog.
I'm always a bit embarrassed when this happens. I'm happy to include great blogs on my blog roll! But to include mine on his? It's so random and hasn't really taken shape yet, in my opinion.
I guess I'd like to think that only a couple people even know that I do this and only a couple people actually read it, like my Mom and Tiny Elvis Girl. Even more than that, that it's not something that people can find.
Carl does have an interesting site called, Smart Unemployment . The site has some great stuff on it. Things like unemployment eligibility, career resources, COBRA: Everything You Need to Know, information that can be really helpful!
Oh, the title of this post. I cut and pasted that directly from a job posting on LinkedIn. This is a HUGE pet peeve with me.
I realize that people are busy. I realize that for every job there are most likely hundreds of applicants. I realize that companies don't often staff adequately so that recruiters or hiring manager can really do their jobs. But this says more to me. More than just I'm too busy to truly engage the applicant pool that might be interested in working for the company I work for. Resumes are words, but to hear some ones voice and to talk with them has value beyond the gold star your applicant tracking system give someone.
I have been in one form or another a recruiter for more than 15 years. I have worked to fill jobs with 4 applicants and 400 applicants. The best applicants that I have come to know and place in positions are the ones who reached out to me or contacted me directly.
I am unemployed. I think I've written that here already. I've applied to several jobs. I have tapped and tap my network at every opportunity when applying to positions. At the advice of or encouragement of another recruiter or individual I have reached out via direct email or phone to people who are doing the hiring. No response?
I will admit that my ideas about recruiting are different than some recruiter's. (At least in my own little world.) As a recruiter applying for different opportunities … well I'll just say more times than not I question the profession.
There are very good recruiter's, good one and bad ones. Everything moves at almost lightening speed these days, staying current isn't the easiest thing to do. And not every company adequately staff's the staffing department. Big or small, whether you like it or not your recruiter's reflect your company. If not the first then it's the second contact people have with an organization. And we all know about first impressions.
I've never claimed to be an expert on anything. I don't know anything really. But I know that I have to read, research, talk to and engage with many people and step outside of that box and sometimes talk to people who don't have the experience I need at the moment because they may know the person or be the next person I need to hire.
I fell into recruiting by accident. Now I'm trying to step out of it, sort of? Or at least approach it differently so that I might lead me down a different path.
I'm calling myself a Social Media Recruiter right now when necessary. But it is more than that, it's Practitioner, Coordinator and maybe even student.
This great blog 25 Steps to Choosing a Social Media Consultant, is right on, on SO many levels!

I am here offering 10 free review copies of my $2/500 word content. You can just PM me your keyword or topic details and I will get you a free 500 words content. Please post a genuine review to help me out and remove the lacking points.
I'm sorry but I want to ask you what do you mean by 'review copies'?
Are you going to write 10 articles for free for good feedback or something like that? I'm sorry if that is a stupid question. I am new to 'writing services' and I have heard this 'review copies' phrase many times over here.
A 500 word article today isn't worth much when Google prefers a minimum of 1000 words of content.
I recommend that you up the count.

Perdue says she'll be ready on Day 1
Oct 31, 2008 at 12:59 PM Oct 31, 2008 at 12:59 PM
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) -- Beverly Perdue says she'll be ready on Day 1 if elected governor to get North Carolina's struggling economy moving again.
The Democratic candidate for governor visited an early voting site Friday in Fayetteville and asked voters to choose her over Republican Pat McCrory.
Perdue said that nearly everyone she talks to on the campaign trail is worried about kitchen table issues and their jobs.
She told reporters her efforts to protect North Carolina military installations and boosting the state's alternative energy industry while lieutenant governor prove she is a capable economic leader.
Perdue has spent most of the week talking to voters in the campaign's final days. McCrory held several private fundraisers this week, but plans a helicopter tour of the Piedmont on Saturday.

She was sociably ambitious and determined that her daughters should marry well. She was slightly embarrassed that they has been born in Brooklyn and moved them to France in the hope of landing each a French aristocratic husband. But, the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 had left France in tatters and she somewhat reluctantly instead took her daughters to England. Jennie famously landed a lord from one of England's grandest families which left Mrs Jerome less than impressed by Leonie's choice of a mere Irish Baronet...! Clara married an English squire whose only skill in life was squandering every dime that came near him! Aside from this, all Mrs Jerome's girls are remembered for their absolute loyalty and support of one another and their husbands.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, today's post comes as an exciting announcement. The Buddy Brew Coffee Bar has officially opened inside Tampa's newest attraction, Oxford Exchange (or OE for short).
If you've followed the buzz surrounding Oxford Exchange, you might have some idea about what this unique place has to offer. If not, I am pleased to inform you that it is not a place to trade dictionaries.
OE is a modern community center and meeting place founded on the idea that art, literature, wonderment and fine food bring people together. OE is unique in that it is made up of different distinct business areas that manage to seamlessly flow into one another. The different areas of OE are The Bookstore, The Shop, The Restaurant, the upstairs Commerce Club, TeBella Tea Company, and of course, Buddy Brew Coffee.
The Buddy Brew Coffee Bar is located in the atrium of OE and gives off a distinctly different feel than the roastery that we all know and love. Service is faster, more grab-and-go, and more akin to a traditional Italian espresso bar than the informal hangout-and-chat vibe you'll find at our home base. However, bar seating at the end of the counter still ensures quality conversation with our charming baristas (who may look a little different in their crisp white shirts and ties). In terms of coffee technology, our espresso bar at OE is first-rate, boasting not one, but two La Marzocca Strada EP espresso machines, K30 Twin Mahlkönig espresso grinders, a Marco Über Boiler water dispenser, plus an entire dedicated Slow Bar station offering pourovers, VacPots and French presses. This bar was designed for high-volume service and was outfitted with the tools to match.
The Buddy Brew Coffee Bar at OE may feel different from the quaint, livingroom-style atmosphere you'll find at the roastery, but the quality of coffee and our philosophy is still just the same. Community through coffee.
So if you find yourself around Downtown or the University of Tampa, pop over and say hello, grab some coffee and check out the beautiful new Oxford Exchange. Until next time, cheerio.
Oxford Exchange is located at: 420 W Kennedy Blvd, 7:30 to 5:30 M – F.
Welcome, friend! Pull up a chair, put your feet up, grab a cup of coffee. Welcome to the official Buddy Brew blog.
Buddy Brew started as a way to share joy among friends through delicious coffee. Even though our shop, team, and business has grown out of the garage and into a couple of real brick and mortar locations, our purpose is still the same: community through coffee. We live off our daily interaction with our customers—it doesn't matter if we're part of your daily grind or if you're a first timer looking for a better cup. The bottom line is that we love to share coffee with everyone.
And that's where the Buddy Brew blog comes in. Here you'll find all things Buddy Brew—news, updates, contests, articles, behind-the-scenes looks, and all the coffee talk you could ask for. So leave us a message, check back often, and thanks for a being a buddy.

This is a relatively unknown festival in [tag]Sibiu[/tag]. Sibiu is an European cultural capital in Romania.

It is very goth like city and for those of you who have not visited it yet the city would probably be a pleasant surprise.

The day after that there were more people. There were some clouds but that was not a problem. The bands finished their soundcheck and at 19.00 the crowd went into the citadel in which the bands played and there was a lot of noise. The hour was 19.30 when Tarot went up the stage.

In the Shader Lamps concept, a projector-camera system augments physical objects with projected virtual textures, provided that a precise intrinsic and extrinsic calibration of the system is available. Calibrating such systems has been an elaborate and lengthy task in the past and required a special calibration apparatus. Self-calibration methods in turn are able to estimate calibration parameters automatically with no effort. However they inherently lack global scale and are fairly sensitive to input data. We propose a new semi-automatic calibration approach for projector-camera systems that - unlike existing auto-calibration approaches - additionally recovers the necessary global scale by projecting on an arbitrary object of known geometry. To this end our method combines surface registration with bundle adjustment optimization on points reconstructed from structured light projections to refine a solution that is computed from the decomposition of the fundamental matrix. In simulations on virtual data and experiments with real data we demonstrate that our approach estimates the global scale robustly and is furthermore able to improve incorrectly guessed intrinsic and extrinsic calibration parameters thus outperforming comparable metric rectification algorithms.

What is meant by the sports phrase "mock draft"?
The sports phrase "mock drafts" is used by sports magazine and websites in reference to the fantasy sport. In mock draft players from different countries participate to see their rankings compared to the other players and what are the chances to be finally drafted in a real match for the league. There are many people who are specialist in the field and through the Internet and television, they can give fans some understandings as where players are expected to be drafted in final drafting.
As it is helpful for the players to know their ranking, it is also helpful for the fans of the league to predict and speculate as to where their favorite players are drafted. It does not replicate as whether the general managers of the team will be selecting the same players in the mock draft, but it gives a fair idea to the fans as in which team their favorite players are heading to.
If we take an example of the NFL draft of 2018, there were a total of 7 rounds with 256 players landing on the new team. Each round has its own suspense for the fans as well as for the players as there are many turnarounds which aren't expected in the mock draft. Each round of draft contains names of players and their respective teams in which they are drafted. Each round of mock draft takes roughly 2-3 hours depending on the trades and how quickly teams can make their selection. Also, there are several protocols by which each club chooses their team.

Time waits for no man, but true love waits forever
FOREVER YOUNG (PG)
D: Steve Miner
Warner Bros./Icon (Bruce Davey)
Romance/Fantasy
W: Jeffrey J. Abrams
DP: Russell Boyd
Ed: Jon Poll
Mus: Jerry Goldsmith
PD: Gregg Fonseca
Mel Gibson (Capt. Daniel McCormick), Jamie Lee Curtis (Claire Cooper), Elijah Wood (Nat Cooper), Isabel Glasser (Helen), George Wendt (Harry Finley), Joe Morton (Cooper)
Pleasant, old-fashioned romantic fantasy which sees Mel Gibson's aviator impulsively volunteer for a cryogenics experiment in 1939, mostly due to witnessing his fiancé involved in a car accident and not being able to bear her suffering in a coma.
He is awoken by two teenage boys in 1992 and struggles to acclimatise to the modern world, and soon discovers that the military are seeking him due to his participation in the top secret experiment.
It's by no means a bad film, and had the story been brought to the screen in the 1930's or 1940's, it may have been considered a fantasy classic alongside other films such as A Matter Of Life Or Death or Here Comes Mr. Jordan. A nice film, but incredibly slushy, with a very predictable ending.

This undated handout photo provided by Christopher Harris shows George Floyd. The mayor of Minneapolis called Wednesday, May 27, 2020, for criminal charges to be filed against officer Derek Chauvin, who is seen on video kneeling against the neck of handcuffed Floyd, who complained that he could not breathe and died in police custody.
Posted at 12:21 PM, Jun 02, 2020
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The state of Minnesota has filed a human rights complaint against the Minneapolis Police Department in the death of George Floyd.
Gov. Tim Walz and the Minnesota Department of Human Rights announced the filing at a news conference Tuesday.
The department enforces the Minnesota Humans Rights Act, which is meant to protect residents in employment, housing, public accommodations, public services, education, credit and business based on their protected class.
Mediation is one of the department's first-choice tools, but the cases it files can lead to fuller investigations and sometimes end up in litigation, The Associated Press found.
Floyd died on Memorial Day after a Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee into his neck for several minutes, even after he stopped moving.
Widely seen bystander video showing Floyd's death has sparked protests around the world.
The officer, Derek Chauvin, has been fired and charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. Three other officers involved were fired but have not been charged.
This story is breaking and will be updated.

Joburg's uncertain political future
South Africa's biggest city appears to be headed the way of a compromised coalition of the centre, or a grim right-wing bloc.
By: Dennis Webster
28 September 2021: The political future of Johannesburg remains uncertain as political parties bargain over coalition options. Right-wing parties have the upper hand, however, as they won the most votes. (Photograph by Gal Productions/ Gallo Images)
Earlier this week, the right wing of South Africa's political spectrum gathered for coalition negotiations in Johannesburg's northern suburbs. The biggest prize being discussed by parties like the DA, the Freedom Front Plus and Action SA was Johannesburg itself.
Devastated by the pandemic, it was a city ill at ease as it took to the polls on 1 November. Data from the Gauteng City Region Observatory show that the proportion of people living below the poverty line in Gauteng had been steadily declining for the better part of the last decade. Over the last year, however, it increased dramatically to 36% of respondents in the institute's Quality of Life Survey. Adult hunger also increased, amid crumbling public services, with one in four households reporting adults having missed a meal in the last year.
Emerging from the political debris is a grim new trust in an emerging and reactionary vision for Johannesburg, characterised by the unprecedented showing of Action SA, which, in taking 16% of the vote, roundly beat the EFF out of third place in the city's political pecking order.
ANC puts discipline before democracy
In these elections, the same privileged northern suburbs where those parties have been negotiating the future of South Africa's biggest city were not shy to veer further right than their already entrenched conservatism. In 2016, the DA won 83% of Sandton's votes. This time around, the party's share of the vote shrunk to 65% in the wake of an overwhelming turn towards ActionSA, which won one in every five votes cast.
But support for the new party was not limited to the city's affluent areas. It also performed strongly in many townships and won 20% of votes in the inner city, where its leader, Herman Mashaba, oversaw a series of xenophobic and unconstitutional raids during his tenure as Johannesburg mayor.
The coalition to come
No stranger to the violent policing of Johannesburg's inner city, having overseen the unlawful eviction of around 8 000 street traders there in late 2013, the ANC has cottoned on to the political success of Mashaba's incendiary approach. Joburg's strongest party sees downtown as a central pillar to stopping its heavy political bleeding and regaining support in the city. One senior official, who called downtown Joburg a "crime den" and a "huge problem for all of us", said that, should the ANC govern in Johannesburg again, "we will camp downtown and bring the police".
While some in the ANC consider a coalition of the right "a serious threat", and despite Action SA's huge success, right-leaning parties do not have the number of votes required to form a government in Johannesburg between them. Any coalition of the right would likely need the EFF's 10% share of the vote, which is difficult to imagine considering the maximalist approach taken by the party in the wake of the elections, in which it has only been willing to trade outright control of councils.
So, despite having the increasingly rural character of its support confirmed – it only won 20% and 36% in the Western Cape and Gauteng respectively – and being left out of the negotiations in Sandton this week, the ANC may yet play a decisive role in Johannesburg's new coalition.
Crumbling coalitions cripple service delivery
The ruling party shares many policy positions with the EFF in the city, even if it tends to adopt more incremental approaches. ANC policy favours the upgrading and development of vacant land, for instance, where the EFF has called for its occupation. Despite the apparent policy coherence, however, senior ANC figures in the city fear inadvertently allowing the EFF a chance to further grow in ANC constituencies. As a result, they did not support a partnership with the red berets, even before talks between the two parties were terminated this week.
While the DA has publicly ruled out allying with the ruling party, senior figures in the ANC in Johannesburg are holding out for a coalition of the centre. There is not much overlap between the two constituencies, which makes them sure that the "city can be managed in a way that is mutually beneficial" to both parties.
The ANC in Johannesburg, once a party of high policy ambition, if not practice, will be focusing on "getting the basics right" should it return to power. The vision of undoing apartheid's spatial legacies through mass public transit and corridors of freedom will give way to prioritising basic municipal services, fixing potholes and street lights and delivering electricity to Soweto.
Senior figures in the party appear to believe that securing DA support will be fairly straightforward. If the ANC is able to keep the suburbs happy and maintained – cut the grass, fill the potholes, and ensure a good standard of infrastructure at parks, libraries and community halls – it feels certain it can establish a two-party coalition at the centre of Johannesburg's increasingly uncertain politics.

Q: Uncertainty principle characterizing metallic bonding? So I was trying to think through the statement that the uncertainty principle can characterize metallic bonding. I know that the uncertainty principle is:
$\Delta p \Delta x = \frac{\hbar}{2}$.
And that in metals I heard that metallic bonding can be thought of as the spreading out of the wave function in space. I think that this makes sense because the electrons are no longer bound to just one atom.
I can see that if the space that the electron could be found ($\Delta x$) increased, say by a factor of 10, then the momentum range ($\Delta p$) will decrease by a factor of 10. However I don't see how this says anything about the bonding energy. My understanding of $\Delta p$ is that is the range of momentum values around a measured value. So wouldn't increasing $\Delta x$ just make the range around the momentum (and energy) tighter instead of lower. I thought that in order to make a stable bond we needed a lower energy.
I was wondering if I was thinking about this the wrong way.

I recently got back a 2003 Maxima SE that was sold a little over 3 years ago. The suspension and steering is in really bad shape so I'm gonna replace most of it. I'm reasonably sure I can replace everything myself after reading the factory manual and watching every video I can find. I see in the video's that when the bolts are removed there is some sort of adhesive...factory Loctite? But they never clean the bolt and reapply the "adhesive" when reassembling. So my question...should I clean the bolts and reapply an adhesive.? if so...what kind?
What are you referring to specifically? The only hardware that you use loctite for is the inner tie rods. Everything else you can leave dry. I like to put a small dab of antiseize on outer tierod threads to make life a little easier for the alignment guy but other than that you can slap everything in right out of the box.
If you have any questions on specifics feel free to ask, i just replaced every bushing and joint on my front end about a week or so ago so its all fresh in my memory. Just want to toss out one piece of friendly advice - stay away from moog, they used to have awesome stuff but their quality control is practically non existant now.
Thank you....mainly the 4 long bolts for the lower control arm mounting.
You can clean the screws a bit with a wire brush, just make sure not to ruin the threads. If you live in a place where they salt the roads a little ant seize or threadlocker never hurts. Use antisieze were you need to remove bolts alot, threadlocker were you don't .
you dont need loctite, it wont hurt but its not needed. just make sure you have a torque wrench to put them at the proper torque spec. Also keep in mind that theres a proper order to tighten them down properly (idr what it is, i kinda just fumbled until it worked) as well as which bolts came from what holes, as one or two of the bolts will be a different length.
I've removed and installed every suspension part on my 4th gen and 5.5 gen and never have I used adhesive, loctite or grease unless its required like upgrading brakes to Brembo calipers with custom brackets that I used loctite.
Everything else as Slamrod said make sure its torqued correctly.

LocalBlox, a company that scrapes user information from social media and other websites to repackage and sell, left 48 million of its records exposed on a public server, according to a report released Wednesday by cybersecurity firm UpGuard.
The data on each individual reportedly includes names, addresses, dates of birth, LinkedIn job histories, public Facebook data, Twitter handles and information from real estate listing site Zillow. Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Zillow told ZDNet, which first reported the story, that data scraping without prior consent violates their policies.
The LocalBlox case bears some similarity to the data scandal embroiling Facebook, whereby data firm Cambridge Analytica was revealed to improperly obtain a trove of data profiles on 87 million Facebook users for political purposes. A main difference with the LocalBlox case, however, is that the data was left unprotected and breachable.
UpGuard said its Cyber Risk Team discovered a public Amazon Web Services S3 bucket containing the compressed 1.2 terabyte database. The says it notified LocalBlox 10 days later and the bucket was secured shortly after.
Analysis by UpGuard shows that LocalBlox has a sophisticated way of threading together data from different sources to produce a granular profile of individual users.
"The database appears to work by tracking an IP address, matching collected data to that IP address when able, and thus providing a clearer image of the behavior and background of the user at that IP address," UpGuard writes.
LocalBlox showcases on its website the level of detail that it collects on individuals, neighborhoods and companies. The company says it has a voter database with 180 million records, an automotive database with 440 million records, 400 million consumer emails addresses with demographic attributes, and many other types of records.
LocalBlox founder Ashfaq Rahman told ZDNet that the 48 million figure is inflated because the dataset includes records that are intentionally fake for testing purposes.
UpGuard says that given how lucrative the data analytics industry is, it's not surprising that LocalBlox's 48 million-strong dataset it exists. Rather, it's worrying that it was so easily found.

Q: How can I keep the decimal zeros in a number type variable in TS (Angular )? In my case I need to introduce a number in an input, and if the number I introduce in the input has a zero as decimal, for example 5.0 or 34.0, when I pass it to Number in TypeScript it saves it as 5 or 34.
But for the needs of a third party service, I need to pass a 5.0 of type number.
I have tried with parseFloat(stringValue).toFixed(1). This function returns a String with the value I need, but when I parse it to Number, it takes away the decimals.
For example:
let value = "5.0";
let fixedValue = parseFloat(value).toFixed(1); // Returns "5.0"

let numberValue = Number(fixedValue);
console.log(numberValue) // Returns 5

Has anyone been able to solve this or perform any similar functionality?

A: In javascript there is no differentiation of integers and floats. All numbers are inherently floats. There is no difference between 1 and 1.0, they both shall be treated as equally.
To illustrate
1 === 1.0; //true;
parseInt(1) === parseFloat(1.0); //true;
parseFloat(1) === parseFloat(1.0);  //true;
parseInt(1) === parseInt(1.0); //true;

The methods like .toFixed shall give a string representation. Ultimately whenever you convert, it would reduce the fraction part if its only 0.

A: The fraction part of any decimal is usually reduced if it is .0.
But your number still have its decimal capacity and if you need to show it, you have to use .toFixed(1) that will return string.
anyway if your input need only to be showed in the template you can use that function to show its fraction part.

Martin Luther King's niece endorses Trump; Black Panther leader says, blacks being 'pimped' by Democratic Party
By World Tribune on August 28, 2016
by WorldTribune Staff, August 28, 2016
The American black community is "being pimped like prostitutes" by the Democratic Party, the leader of the New Black Panther Party said on Aug. 27.
Meanwhile, Dr. Alveda King, the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., has endorsed Trump for president, saying the GOP candidate's plan for the black community is "promising."
Quanell X
"I listened very carefully to everything Mr. Trump has said in the last 72 hours or so and I fully agree with so many of the things that he's saying," King said. "He has taken a page from the book of my daddy, A. D. King, and my uncle Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. looking at the climate, people and really being concerned about what's happening in every community across America."
Quanell X told Fox Houston that "it is a fact that for 54 years we have been voting for the Democratic Party like no other race in America. And they have not given us the same loyalty and love that we have given them.
"We as black people have to re-examine the relationship. We're being pimped like prostitutes and they're the big pimps pimping us politically, promising us everything and giving us nothing in return. We've gotta step back now as black people and we've gotta look at ALL the parties."
Regarding GOP candidate Donald Trump's outreach to the black community, Quanell X said: "Donald Trump decided to go to Milwaukee and speak about the conditions in American and why he thought black people should vote for him. He even went on to lay out reasons why we should. Let me say this to the brothers and sisters who listened and watched that speech. We may not like the vessel that said what he said, but I ask us to truly examine what he said."
The New Black Panther Party leader went on to say that "Barack Obama is the president, the first black president ever, but did our condition get better? Did things get better? The condition got worse."

Germany – A World-Class Pharmaceutical Location
Combining cutting edge-innovation, a long tradition as the "world´s pharmacy" and continuously growing demand for healthcare products, Germany is the ideal location for pharmaceutical R&D, production, and sales of medicines.
Driven by trends such as demographic change, a rise in chronic diseases and an increasing emphasis on prevention and self-medication, Europe's biggest pharmaceutical market is growing faster than the German economy. Germany belongs to the world's leading clinical trials locations and - based on R&D investment and patent application levels - is the leading pharmaceutical innovation location in Europe. Building on these competencies, many German organizations have also joined global efforts to combat the Covid-19 pandemic.
The country is the largest exporter of medicinal products and ranks among the top pharmaceutical producers worldwide. In light of the global need for personalized medicine, Germany has also evolved into one of the main suppliers of novel biopharmaceuticals. Located in the heart of Europe and benefiting from excellent infrastructure and a highly skilled workforce, the continent's most populous country offers attractive opportunities and a favorable investment climate for pharmaceutical companies planning to expand internationally.
Covid-19: Clinical Research in Germany
There are currently 97 Covid-19 clinical studies registered in Germany, almost half of which are international studies - underlining Germany's leading role in global research for Covid-19 treatment.

Germany constitutes the major European pharmaceutical market and the fourth largest worldwide. In 2019, pharmaceutical industry sales in Germany increased by 5.7 percent, reaching EUR 46.4 billion (ex-manufacturer prices).
More than 500 pharmaceutical companies are located in Germany. SMEs constitute the backbone of the economic sector, with around 90 percent of drug manufacturers having less than 500 employees. Overall, the German pharmaceutical industry has a workforce of 120,000 people (2019).
Germany generated production value of EUR 36.1 billion in 2018, making it the leading pharmaceutical manufacturing location in the EU.
In 2018, the pharmaceutical industry in Germany invested almost EUR 7.4 billion in R&D. The sector shows the highest research intensity across all major German industries – about 12.5 percent of revenues were reinvested in R&D in 2018.

The average annual growth rate of the German OTC market amounts to four percent for the period 2014 to 2019. In 2019, revenues increased by 3.7 percent to almost EUR 10.7 billion. More than EUR 7.2 billion was generated in the non-prescription drugs segment and over EUR 3.4 billion with health products.
Non-prescription drugs include pharmacy-only drugs as well as OTC drugs that may also be sold outside of pharmacies. Product groups that are not subject to pharmaceutical legislation - for example, food supplements – belong to the health products segment and can be sold by pharmacies as well as in the mass market (e.g. drugstores and supermarkets).
Traditional brick-and-mortar pharmacies represent the main distribution channel for OTC products and enjoy a high level of trust among the German population. Almost 75 percent of revenue was generated by the 19,000 local pharmacies in 2019, followed by mail-order pharmacies and the mass market.
Remedies for the respiratory system, analgesics and products for the digestive system account for the highest share of OTC sales via pharmacies (including mail order). Although self-medication represents the major part of revenue, OTC products may also be prescribed and reimbursed by health insurance companies.

The development of biological drugs has led to substantial shifts in the pharmaceutical industry landscape in recent years. Large companies have moved their focus from small molecule drugs towards the development and production of complex biological compounds that are made with the help of a variety of organisms.
Because of their high therapeutic potential, biologics have taken up a considerable share of the pharmaceutical market in Germany: From 2015 to 2019, the biologics market grew by 11.6 percent on average annually – more than twice the growth of the overall pharma market. The total revenue of biopharmaceuticals in Germany is EUR 12.7 billion (2019), equivalent to more than a quarter of the market for pharmaceuticals.
Germany is one of the world's top pharmaceutical production locations. In 2018, pharmaceutical production volume reached EUR 36.1 billion – equivalent to 18 percent year-on-year growth. Germany is the biggest pharmaceutical manufacturing location within the European Union and ranks second in Europe after Switzerland.
In the field of biopharmaceutical production, Germany has the second highest figures worldwide after the USA. Three important factors contributing to this excellent position are the high-performing industrial infrastructure, the long-standing strength of the local chemical industry, and a highly qualified workforce.
Germany provides the perfect environment for the development and production of research-intensive, high-grade products. In 2018, the pharmaceutical industry in Germany invested almost EUR 7.4 billion in R&D – more than in any other European country. The German pharmaceutical sector shows the highest research intensity across all major German industries – about 12.5 percent of revenues were reinvested in R&D in 2018. With 499 clinical trials financed by research-based pharmaceutical companies in 2019, Germany ranks fifth worldwide. Based on the number of patent applications, the country is leading in pharmaceutical innovation in Europe. In 2018, some 584 patents were registered with the European Patent Office by the pharmaceutical industry in Germany.
Over 30 biotechnology clusters bundle scientific expertise at a regional level and connect academic and industrial players in the field of drug development, thereby contributing substantially to the advancement of pharmaceutical innovation and creating an innovation ecosystem that enjoys global acclaim.

Q: WPF Linear Fill I have found some example code that creates a gradient fill in a WPF rectangle control:
<Rectangle Height="{Binding ElementName=txtName}" Width="{Binding ElementName=txtName}">
                            <Rectangle.Fill>
                                <LinearGradientBrush>
                                    <GradientStop Color="Silver" Offset="0.0" />
                                    <GradientStop Color="Black" Offset="0.5" />
                                    <GradientStop Color="white" Offset="1.0" />
                                </LinearGradientBrush>
                            </Rectangle.Fill>
                        </Rectangle>

I have some written some code that displays a collection of ListBox's that contain details from MyObject:
<UserControl.Resources>
        <DataTemplate x:Key="CustomerTemplate">
            <Border BorderThickness="2" BorderBrush="Silver" CornerRadius="5" Padding="1" Height="50">
                <Grid x:Name="thisGrid">
                    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
                        <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
                    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" >
                                <Image Source="C:\MyImage.jpg" Height="50" Width="100" ></Image>
                    </StackPanel>
                    <Border Grid.Column="1" Margin="0" Padding="0">
                            <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
                            <TextBlock Name="txtName" Text="{Binding Name}" Background="Silver" Foreground="Black" FontSize="16" FontWeight="Bold" Height="25"/>
                        </StackPanel>
                    </Border>

                </Grid>
            </Border>
        </DataTemplate>
</UserControl.Resources>
    <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding}" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource CustomerTemplate}"
                 Name="grdList" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch" >

    </ListBox>

I would like to apply the same stlye of fill that i get with the first example, in each of my ListBox's. I can't quite figure out how to do this. Can anyone help?
Thanks

A: Have you looked at setting the background fill of the item containers using the ItemContainerStyle property of ListBox?

A: Since you can change ControlTemplate of your ListBox like in the example here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms754242(VS.85).aspx, you can write something like this
<Page
  xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
  xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
  <Page.Resources>
  <Style x:Key="{x:Type ListBox}" TargetType="ListBox">
  <Setter Property="Template">
    <Setter.Value>
      <ControlTemplate TargetType="ListBox">
        <Border
          Name="Border"
          BorderThickness="1"
          CornerRadius="20" Style="{DynamicResource DynamicGridBrush}">
          <ScrollViewer Margin="0" Focusable="false">
            <StackPanel Margin="2" IsItemsHost="True" />
          </ScrollViewer>
        </Border>
      </ControlTemplate>
    </Setter.Value>
  </Setter>
</Style>
<Style TargetType="Border" x:Key="DynamicGridBrush">
    <Setter Property="Background">
      <Setter.Value>
        <LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0,0" EndPoint="0,1">
          <GradientStop Offset="0" Color="LightBlue" />
          <GradientStop Offset="0.65" Color="LightGreen" />
          <GradientStop Offset="1" Color="White" />
        </LinearGradientBrush>
      </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
  </Style></Page.Resources>
  <Grid>
    <ListBox>
      <TextBlock>aaa</TextBlock>
      <TextBlock>bbb</TextBlock>
      <TextBlock>ccc</TextBlock>
    </ListBox>
  </Grid>
</Page>

If I understood your question and you would like to apply gradient background to your whole listbox.
