The expected 2022 development pattern of the notebook computer business laptop market will show that Lenovo, Dell, HP, Apple, Asus, and Acer, the world's six leading notebook computer OEMs, account for a total business laptop market share of as high as 94%, which is a double-digit percentage gain compared to a market share of 80.8% in 2021. Shipments of business laptops originating from the six major OEMs in 2022 is estimated to reach 80.29 million units, an increase of 8.2% compared to 74.22 million units in 2021, which is contrary to the YoY decline of 6.7% in the overall global business laptop market from 2021 to 2022.
Upon further observation, the aforementioned development trend is primarily due to a sharp decrease in the supply of small market share business laptops from OEMs such as Samsung, NEC, Huawei, and Xiaomi, while supply from the six major OEMs has increased. Comparing the two, the target market of smaller market share OEMs may be limited to their respective home countries. If market demand for business laptops in their home countries approaches saturation, coupled with limited capacity for expansion and a lack of strategic planning for global market access, it will be difficult to displace the top six OEMs with their targeted global market scope, nor do smaller market share OEMs have the strategic and technical ability to expand production capacity in time to meet the huge demand of the global business laptop market.
Performance of global business laptop market will decline sharply in 2023 and pandemic premiums are expected to reappear in 2024-2025
As the key driving force behind the global notebook computer market, business laptops are expected to reach 85.45 million units in 2022, a YoY decline of approximately 6.7% compared with 91.55 million units in 2021. However, shipments of business laptops will account for 43.8% of total shipments of all laptops (including business, consumer, and Chromebook laptops), setting a record for highest proportion of shipments in the past five years and since the global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019. With Chromebook shipments losing momentum, business laptop sales growth has prevented the market from falling off a cliff.
With the end of pandemic-related business laptop demand, business laptop shipments in the global notebook computer market is expected to diminish to 74.94 million units in 2023, and YoY decline will expand to 12.3%. If inflation in the consumer electronics market can be significantly slowed in 2H22 and the 1H23, cyclical "back-to-school" and "holiday season" growth momentum in 2H23 will benefit the notebook computer consumer product market, increasing the proportion of consumer device shipments in the global notebook computer market to 49.4% in 2023, while the proportion of business laptop shipments will recede marginally to 41.6%.
Although growth momentum in the current business laptop market is weak, the market performance of business laptops is still highly anticipated due to the "bulk sale" characteristic of business laptops, the fact that many companies must purchase replacement "Durable Goods" every 2-3 years, and the expectation that business laptops purchased during the severe pandemic of the past two years will be replaced subsequently from 2024 to 2025.

Undaunted by deadlocked US-Sino relations, China's packaging and testing industry has emerged from the pandemic a champion
Undaunted by deadlocked US-Sino relations, the great pandemic of 2020, and the US Department of Commerce's ban on Huawei's use of software and equipment produced by US manufacturers in the same year, China's packaging and testing industry has, instead, used these factors as stimulus get back on track. Faced with these three major challenges, the Chinese government has responded with policies such as domestically producing both equipment and semiconductors, allowing China's packaging and testing industry to buck the trends set in 2020. According to TrendForce statistics, industry revenue in 2020 reached US$7.02 billion and approximately US$9.53 billion in 2021.
A brief summary of China's packaging and testing industry in recent years is as follows: the US-Sino trade war has been raging since 2018 and, due to tariff issues and the gradual rise in personnel salaries, terminal manufacturers whom had already established plants or subsidiaries in China were forced to gradually relocate relevant factories to SE Asia and India in order to avoid growing overhead costs, moreover impacting the revenue performance of China's packaging and testing industry. As of June 2019, the tariff issue remained unresolved due to dubious US.-Sino relations but this issue could no longer impede the revenue recovery momentum of China's packaging and testing industry.
Packaging and testing and localized equipment skirts bans and a moderate threshold for technology research and development attracts overseas manufacturers
After the U.S. Department of Commerce imposed export control bans on Huawei, HiSilicon, and SMIC, the market mostly predicted that China's packaging and testing industry would be hit next but this did not happen. According to TrendForce, the primary reason for this is that the nature of current back-end packaging and testing technology is relatively crude compared to front-end wafer manufacturing and, considering Chinese government's recent policy of localizing equipment and the degree of substitutability of non-US equipment manufacturers, even if the U.S. Department of Commerce proposes further bans against the industry, its effects will be limited.
In response to the US-Sino trade conflict, the Chinese government has proposed relevant measures such as semiconductor autonomy which has driven a gradual mainstreaming of domestic equipment production plans. In addition, national funds have been continuously injected into semiconductor equipment manufacturers, even though the level of technological development at this stage remains inferior to major manufacturers in Europe, the United States, and Japan. However, for those with modest requirements for back-end process conditions, testing, and testing equipment, China's domestic packaging and testing equipment does have a certain proportion and scale.
For example, relevant companies such as Hangzhou Changchuan and Shanghai Raintree have invested in the automatic optical inspection instruments (AOI) and testing equipment that are required in the latter stage of packaging and testing. On the other hand, due to the relatively low threshold for research and development of back-end packaging and testing equipment, many international companies such as Japan's Advantest and Singapore's Besi have also set up shops in China. Chinese packaging and testing and their equipment manufacturers are essentially unaffected by relevant export bans, so the industry can still anticipate technological and revenue performance in the next few years.
Continued Decline Expected for Chinese Smartphone Market with Annual Shipment of 345 Million Units for 2021
Smartphone shipments in the Chinese market have seen continued declines in recent years primarily because the penetration rate of smartphones in China has already surpassed 60%. Furthermore, smartphone hardware refreshes have gradually slowed down, with no killer app has emerged yet. Taken together, these factors have led to a decline in consumers' replacement demand. While the COVID-19 pandemic began its spread last year, annual shipment of smartphones in the Chinese market for 2020 reached only about 330 million units, a 13.61% YoY decline.
Regarding the Chinese smartphone market in 2021, quarterly shipment underwent more than a 100% YoY increase for only the first quarter of the year due to the relatively low base for comparison in 1Q20. Starting from 2Q21, smartphone shipments saw YoY declines for each quarter of 2021. TrendForce, therefore, forecasts 345 million units in annual shipment for 2021 in the Chinese smartphone market, which represents a 4.55% YoY growth and a figure that falls below prior expectations. This disappointing performance can primarily be attributed to the shortage of components from the supply side, along with continued sluggishness from the demand side domestically.
As Honor confirmed its handsets will feature GMS (Google Mobile Services), Chinese smartphone brands look to dominate the overseas markets
Honor recently announced on its official Twitter account that it once again restored its partnership with Google and other suppliers. The Honor 50 series of handsets are equipped with GMS, which includes Google Play Store, Gmail, and YouTube, among other apps.
As a subsidiary of Huawei, Honor was previously unable to install GMS on its phones due to Huawei's inclusion on the US Entity List, leading to a continued drop in Honor's overseas market share. Now that it has been spun off from Huawei, Honor needs to restart negotiations with its suppliers. Initially, the company had a hard time expanding its presence overseas due to the lack of GMS functionality as well as the fact that it had to re-establish its global sales networks. After having received GMS authorization from Google, Honor is now able to compete with other Chinese brands such as Xiaomi, OPPO, and Vivo on an equal footing.
Shipping more than 10% of the domestic monthly total in smartphones, Honor has recently established a steady presence in the Chinese market. However, given the domestic market's bearish trend in recent years, Honor, whose handsets now feature GMS functionality, will likely turn its focus to the European or Southeast Asian markets that Huawei once aggressively pursued.
iPhone Shipment Resumes Its Upward Trajectory in 3Q21 with 30% YoY Increase
The iPhone 13 series, which is about to be formally announced by Apple, has already had its exterior design speculated on by various media outlets and fans alike. TrendForce's latest investigations indicate that some of the notable hardware upgrades of the iPhone 13 pertain to the SoC (manufactured at the 5nm+ node, which enables improved performance and decreased power consumption), display, and camera. In addition, iPhone handsets featuring support for 5G mmWave will be available for sale in more countries after the release of iPhone 13.
The iPhone 13 will see a shift in its charging circuit board from the previous rigid-flex PCB design to a new design featuring SiP combined with flexible PCB. The space-saving feature of this new design will also likely result in increased battery capacity. As for retail prices, the iPhone 13 series is expected to remain similar to the iPhone 12 series assuming Apple is able to effectively control manufacturing costs, since the latest models do not come with significant hardware upgrades. As a result of this aggressive pricing scheme, iPhone shipment will likely maintain its growth trajectory for two consecutive years.
Huawei's plight led to Apple's rising market share in the Greater China region
Owing to heavy competition from Chinese brands, sales in the Greater China region accounted for a decreasing share of Apple's iPhone revenue, from 19.44% in 2017 down to merely 16.33% in 2020. Nevertheless, this downtrend has been gradually reversing since 4Q20, primarily because of increased sanctions against Huawei.As Huawei was cut off from its chip supply in 4Q20, shipment of Huawei smartphones underwent a massive decline accordingly, in turn leaving vacancies in the flagship smartphone market in China. At the same time, while Apple released its new iPhone 12 models, flagship smartphone buyers in China began purchasing iPhones instead. Thanks to this shift, sales in the Greater China region began accounting for a growing share of Apple's iPhone revenue, from 14.8% up to 19.13% in 4Q20. Since 4Q20, this figure has remained above 18% for three consecutive quarters.
Prior to being sanctioned by the US government, Huawei had enjoyed the highest market share in the high-end smartphone segment in China. After the sanctions were put into place, this segment then became highly sought after by other smartphone brands. However, because other Chinese brands had not previously placed significant emphasis on the high-end market, the iPhone was able to seize most of the market share in the high-end segment left in Huawei's wake. Furthermore, although other Chinese smartphone brands have started developing their respective flagship models, it takes considerable time to build up their brand images in this segment and attract customers. TrendForce therefore believes that the iPhone will continue to dominate the high-end smartphone market in China for the next two to three years.
iPhones are expected to account for 16.7% of global smartphone shipment in 2021
An overview of iPhone shipments for the past few years shows that iPhone shipment went into a nosedive starting in 4Q18 because the iPhone XS/XR series featured limited improvements yet a significant price hike over its iPhone 8/X predecessor. Alarmed by this decline, Apple immediately revamped its sales strategy for the next-gen iPhone 11, which not only underwent a total overhaul in terms of specs but also experienced a price cut of US$50 for the entry-level model (the Pro model retained its previous-gen equivalent's price). Apple subsequently released the brand-new iPhone SE in 2020, thereby reversing the downward trajectory of iPhone shipment as a result.
New iPhones saw a deferred released schedule in 2020 owing to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to a 14% YoY decrease in iPhone shipment for 3Q20. However, as the new iPhone 12 models equipped with across-the-board hardware upgrades, including 5G functionality, were released in 4Q20, iPhone shipment saw a massive rebound during the quarter and reached a 12% YoY increase in 4Q20 and a further increase of 42% YoY in 1Q21.
Looking ahead to the shipment volumes of the new iPhone models for 2H21, TrendForce expects Apple to maintain its aggressive pricing strategy in order to boost shipment. In addition, as the iPhone 13 series will once again return to a September release, total iPhone shipment is expected to undergo a 30% YoY increase in 3Q21, but a 5% YoY decrease in 4Q21. As such, iPhone sales for 2H21 will likely surpass 2H20 figures. For 2021, iPhones are expected to account for 16.7% of all smartphone shipment, which is a step-up compared to last year.

Market Share of Top Three Suppliers of Base Stations Projected to Undergo Slight Decline in 2021 While Fourth-Ranked Samsung Scores Wins in Overseas Markets, Says TrendForce
Chinese and European suppliers of base station equipment are expected to once again account for a global market share of more than 70% in 2021, and the top three suppliers (along with their respective market shares) are, in order, China-based Huawei (30%), Sweden-based Ericsson (23%), and Finland-based Nokia (20%), according to TrendForce's latest investigations. Remarkably, although Huawei remains banned by the US government, the company still manages to dominate its competitors in terms of market share due to its products' cost advantages as well as the enormous demand from the domestic Chinese market.
It should be pointed out that Samsung has similarly benefitted from its relatively low costs and successful 5G commercialization efforts, both of which helped propel its market share this year to 12.5% and secure the fourth place in the global ranking. Not only is Samsung supplying base station components to the three largest mobile network operators in Korea, but it is also collaborating with operators in the US (including AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon) while having established supply agreements with NTT DoCoMo in Japan. On the other hand, Japanese supplier NEC has received its first ever overseas orders this year, from British mobile network Vodafone. Japan-based Fujitsu, likewise, has also been chosen by the British government as an alternative supplier of 5G base station equipment in place of Huawei.
TrendForce indicates that the proliferation of distance learning and WFH applications has brought about a massive 40% increase in average global network bandwidth consumption as the world works to bring the COVID-19 pandemic under control. As such, the 5G network is able to satisfy the current market demand due to its high bandwidth and low latency characteristics. Furthermore, as 5G commercial demand rises in various countries, the GSA (Global mobile Suppliers Association) announced that "the number of announced 5G devices has surpassed 800 for the first time and now stands at 822 announced 5G devices". These products, including both consumer and enterprise applications, have been released in response to the demand for faster, more convenient network connections across a broad range of applications. In sum, all of the aforementioned factors are drivers of increased 5G base station build-out worldwide.
Key to Huawei's market share leadership, 5G users in China account for 90% of the global total in 2021
Owing to the ongoing China-US trade war, both Huawei and the three largest mobile network operators in China have been barred from engaging in investment-related activities with US companies. In addition, in July 2021, the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) finalized a US$1.9 billion plan that subsidizes domestic telecom companies to replace base station components from Chinese suppliers, such as Huawei and ZTE, that the FCC considers a potential risk to US national security. Huawei and ZTE have subsequently become unable to acquire key RF front-end components from US suppliers, thereby prompting Huawei to shift its base station infrastructure business towards the domestic Chinese market instead.
Regardless, TrendForce's findings indicate that, as of late-2020, the number of 5G users in China surpassed 160 million, which represented about 89% of the global total. As of July 2021, the three largest mobile network operators in China, including China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom, have established 916,000 5G base stations domestically, which comprise 70% of the global total. Not only does this number point to the impressive magnitude of the Chinese telecom market, but it has also been the key to Huawei's leadership in the base station market for nearly two years.

1. Line one large, or two smaller baking trays with baking parchment. Slice the top and bottom off the pineapple, then cut off the skin and remove all but the smallest of eyes. Cut into 8 wedges.
2. Cut the tough core from each wedge and discard. Slice each wedge into 8 pieces. Put the prepared pineapple pieces into a wide saucepan, with the sugar and orange juice. Stir over a medium heat, until the sugar has completely dissolved.
3. Bring up to the boil, and then reduce the heat and leave to simmer gently for about 20 minutes. The liquid will reduce to a thin layer of sticky syrup on the base of the pan, and the pineapple will take on a slightly translucent quality.
4. Cool for 10 minutes, then scrape the contents of the pan into the processor, and whiz to a thick purée.
5. Spread the purée out thinly onto the baking sheets, it should be about as thick as a £1 coin. Set the oven to its lowest possible temperature, and then leave it to dry out for a good 6 hours, or better still, overnight. Store in an airtight container.
6. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking parchment. Cut the pineapple into thin strips, about 4mm thick, by 5cm long.
7. Dip the strips into the melted chocolate until half coated, and leave to set on the baking tray. These are delicious served with coffee. Alternatively, these can be served as more of a savoury snack with cheese.

Q: Temporarily storing array of invisible div elements I'm working with FusionCharts, and the way that I'm using these charts is...

*

*In javascript, a new chart is instantiated

*New chart object creation requires specifying a div id

*my page dynamically loads content from the server, while the user never actually leaves the page

*The Fusion Charts doesn't allow creating a second chart within a div which already has a chart in it

*With that being said, I need to pre-define each and every possible chart, even if its parent content page isn't loaded yet, and instantiate it upon page load.

*Going further, in order to create those chart 'objects', I need to already have a div element designated for each particular chart, referenced by ID.

Here's a code snippet:
var Charts = new Array();
function InitCharts() {
    Charts[0] = new FusionCharts("MSColumn3DLineDY.swf", "divChartSSumA1", "340", "340");
    Charts[1] = new FusionCharts("MSColumn3DLineDY.swf", "divChartSSumA2", "340", "340");
    Charts[2] = new FusionCharts("MSColumn3DLineDY.swf", "divChartSSumA3", "340", "340");
}

Now the question with the above is how would I go about pre-creating the div elements and temporarily hiding them when not in use, then showing them inside their proper placeholder when they do need to be shown? I'd like the user to be able to quickly switch back and forth between the 'pages' of charts, each page being dynamically loaded from the server and 'injected' into the main content area of the page. Therefore, if the content for a particular chart isn't loaded, the chart object will raise errors that its parent div doesn't exist.
So specifically, how would I maintain an invisible list of named div's and show them in certain places as needed? The trouble begins with making sure each element perfectly corresponds with its chart object.
I'm also pondering the idea of what if I could create an invisible div object and store its reference in this array along with the chart? Better yet, how would I go about writing my own class which just has A) Chart Object, and B) div Element.
Just a note: When content section changes, and div's disappear, the chart placeholder div must be 'moved' back to its original place before the contents are cleared and replaced. I'm not sure what tricks there are to avoid this without moving innerHTML the hard way. I'm just worried about these div elements being deleted along with the page contents when it gets cleared (to be replaced with other dynamic page contents).

A: Another method you can adopt is to create a new div for every chart and hide/show them as required.
For example,
var Charts = new Array();
var openChart = null;
var chartTarget = $("#chartTarget");

for(var i = 0; i < nCharts; i++)
{
    var chartDiv = $("<div/>", {
        id:'chart_' + i
    });
    chartDiv.hide();
    chartDiv.appendTo(chartTarget);

    Charts[i] = new FusionCharts("Column.swf", "chart_" + i);

    // now the chart div has been hidden and appended to the target
}

function showChart(index)
{
    // first, see if an open chart exists
    if(openChart !== null)
    {
        openChart.hide();
    }

    // find the target chart div to show
    var targetChartDiv = $("#chart_" + index);
    targetChartDiv.show();

    // now the new opened chart is the target chart div
    openChart = targetChartDiv;
}

This way each of your charts rest in an unique id. And since the ID is defined by the index, you don't need to create an array of divs. Simply get the element by the ID and it should work fine..

A: A cool way to solve your issue is to continue to instantiate the charts before page load as you are doing now. However, modify the constructor parameter to object-style notation. In object-style construction, you can pre-specify the id of the div where the chart will be rendered (using renderAt attribute) and then when page loads, simply iterate through the charts and call .render() on them.
Object-style notation provisions more parameters and configurations than the linear construction method that you are using now.
Example:
var charts = [];
function InitCharts() {
    charts[0] = new FusionCharts({
        swfUrl: "MSColumn3DLineDY.swf",
        renderAt: "divChartSSumA1",
        width: "340",
        height: "340"
    });
}

function onFinalLoad() {
    var i = charts.length;
    while (i--) {
        charts[i].render();
    }
}

Also, FusionCharts supports rendering multiple charts within a single div. In the object-style notation, simply provide insertMode: "append"
Refer construction methods in JavaScript in FusionCharts documentation to know more about object-style notation.

A: If you are looking for a solution for this : "The Fusion Charts doesn't allow creating a second chart within a div which already has a chart in it", you already have solution:
Use insertMode constructor property in Object based constructor parameter. Possible values are "replace", "append", "prepend".
Example which tyou can try:
    var myChart = FusionCharts.render({
        swfUrl : "../../../../Charts/Column3D.swf",
        width: "400",

Now let's consider we have a social networking site and have millions of user profiles. Profile pages of some famous users might be getting hundreds or thousands of visits per minute.
To generate a users profile, we would need more than one SQL query (friends, album names and picture counts, profile information, last status etc.).
As long as a user didn't update her profile, the information that is shown on her page would be almost stastic. Thus, a snapshot of profile pages could be cached for 5 minutes or 1 hour etc.
But this might not be enough. We are talking about hundres of millions of profiles and users. Users would be doing much more than just looking at some profile pages. We would need more than one server that are distributed in several geographical locations on earth (a WEB Farm).
At a certain time, all these servers might have cached a very important persons (VIP) profile in local cache. When the VIP makes a change in her profile, all these servers should renew their local cached profile, and this would happen in a few seconds. We now have a problem of load per server instead of load per user.
Actually, once one these of servers loaded the VIP profile from SQL database and cached it, other servers could make use of the same information without hitting database. But, as each server stores cached information in its own local memory, it is not trivial to access this information by other servers.
Let's call this memory the distributed cache. If all servers have a look at this common memory before trying DB we would avoid the load per server problem.
You can find many variations of distributed cache systems including Memcached, Couchbase and Redis. They are also called NoSQL database. You can think of them simply as a remote dictionary. They store key/value pairs in their memory and let you access them as fast as possible.
Warning! When it is used properly, distributed cache can improve performance of your application, just like local cache. Otherwise it can have a worse effect than local cache as there is a network transfer and serialization cost involved. Thus "if we keep things in distributed cache our site will run faster" is a myth.
When the cached data becomes too much, one computer memory might be not enough to store all key/value pairs. In this case servers like memcached distribute data by clustering. This could be done by the first letter of keys. One server could hold pairs starting with A, other with B etc. In fact, they use hash of keys for this purpose.


The pair were cited by the guild just weeks after the Golden Globes snubbed them both; could Academy Award nods be next?

Greta Gerwig and Jordan Peele are back on track. Just days after the pair left the eccentric Golden Globes empty-handed—though both were embraced by the highbrow National Board of Review—the Directors Guild tapped them both for its annual awards. The nominations for outstanding feature film directors were announced on Thursday, with Gerwig and Peele joining the ranks of Guillermo del Toro (The Shape of Water), Martin McDonagh (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri), and Christopher Nolan (Dunkirk).
The race for best director has been fairly tight, though Gerwig and Peele both emerged as likely candidates early on in the race. Lady Bird has been embraced as a near-perfect coming-of-age drama, while Get Out has captured the zeitgeist and kept momentum going since it opened last February—no easy feat, considering the industry's notoriously short attention span. Even a November-December release is not a surefire way to grab attention; Steven Spielberg's The Post, for example, has had a shaky track record on the awards circuit, despite its topical slant and big-name cast (Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep). Though Christopher Nolan has also managed to stay in the race despite an early release date—Dunkirk opened over the summer—his initial front-runner status has since dwindled, perhaps due to the popularity of Peele and Gerwig's projects. Del Toro has emerged as a particularly powerful competitor as well, most recently picking up the best-director award at the Golden Globes—but only after enduring a quick burn from Natalie Portman.
But historically, the Globes don't align with the Academy Awards quite as well as D.G.A. nominations, which tend to identify key front-runners. These nominations mean that Gerwig and Peele have a real shot at getting nominated—though Gerwig will likely be the lone woman represented in this category come March. The lack of female directing nominees on the circuit this year—from the Globes to the recently announced BAFTAs—has been noticeable, even though there are plenty of worthy candidates, from Gerwig to Patty Jenkins (Wonder Woman) to Dee Rees (Mudbound). While Jenkins and Rees have been honored at galas and selected by critics for various awards along the way, they've been snubbed more often than not.
The Directors Guild Awards will be hosted this year by Judd Apatow and will take place in Beverly Hills on Feb. 3.

Members of the environmental group Philly Thrive took over a meeting about the legacy of clean-up at the PES Refinery.

Activists take over meeting on Philly refinery cleanup, demand public involvement

Catalina Jaramillo is a part-time reporter for StateImpact PA. She covers water issues in the Delaware Watershed. She was born and raised in Santiago, Chile, and has written for several publications in Chile, Mexico and the U.S. She's a graduate of Columbia School of Journalism and has been a Fulbright and Metcalf fellow.
Members of the environmental group Philly Thrive protest a public meeting that did not put any residents on the panel.
Activists took over a public meeting on the cleanup of the shuttered Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery site on Thursday evening, arguing they were left out of the process. First they blocked the entrance, then entered an almost empty auditorium singing chants and giving testimony on how the refinery have affected their health.
"Enough is enough, I don't want to see my children die," said Sylvia Bennet, a neighbor of the South Philadelphia refinery.
But the meeting was not about the fire that shut down the refinery in June sending about 60,000 pounds of hydrocarbons and 3,271 pounds of the dangerous hydrofluoric acid into the atmosphere. And it wasn't a part of the public meetings held by the city's Refinery Advisory Group who's due to release a final report this month.
The meeting was called to discuss past contamination of the site for which Sunoco, which owned the site from 1988 to 2012, is responsible.
Sunoco has been in the process of remediating the site for 26 years, under the supervision of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and the Environmental Protection Agency. But it failed to involve the community on its planning process, which is required by Pennsylvania's Land Recycling Program they are part of, commonly referred to as Act 2.
Thursday's meeting was the first one in the last 12 years of cleanup process. Only eight residents attended the previous meeting.
Neighbor Shawmar Pitts said the invitation to participate is coming too late.
"Ain't no meeting going on if you're not going to do it the way it's supposed to be done. We were supposed to be part of the process — we're going to be part of the process or ain't going to be no process," Pitts said.
The company that is conducting the cleanup for Sunoco, Evergreen, was planning on having two public meetings with a public comment period in between. But residents argue that's too little time to review dozens of technical documents and understand the regulations, what Sunoco has been doing so far, and what are they missing.
Different companies have operated refineries at the site since 1866, with very little regulation until the 1970s. Both the soil and groundwater have been heavily contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons that have negative effects on human health, including benzene, lead, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene, and other toxic compounds. Some contaminants have migrated off the site, potentially affecting a drinking-water aquifer used by New Jersey.
Patrick O'Neill, the city's deputy solicitor, said the meeting was set up to present the environmental investigations and remediation activities conducted by Evergreen for the last several years.
"This is the meeting to learn what's going on, to be introduced to the whole process, followed by 120-days of a comment period, followed by another public meeting when they can then give additional oral comment, if that's what they want to do. So they're preventing it from even starting," he said.
O'Neill was the only representative of the city at the meeting. No elected officials were present. O'Neill engaged directly with activists until the meeting was dismissed by Evergreen, an hour and a half after it was supposed to start. Cleanup of the site is critical before the land can be reused.
Matt Walker, advocacy director with the Clean Air Council, said Evergreen and the city should have involved the community earlier. The DEP has already approved investigation reports about environmental contamination for 8 out of the 11 sections of the site, and a standard for lead contamination in soil proposed by Evergreen that is at a level twice Pennsylvania's normal health-based standard.
"Standards were approved for cleanup without any public involvement. There were investigations reports about the level of contamination at the site approved without public involvement. So people are understandably frustrated," Walker said.
South Philly resident Carol White and other members of Philly Thrive block the entrance to a public meeting about the refinery Thursday evening.
DEP's David Brown, of the agency's Bureau of Environmental Cleanup & Brownfields, said the reports released give an understanding of the pollutants on site, but the agency has not made a final decision on the remediation plan. He said the lead standards are consistent to the EPA and more updated than what the DEP currently uses.
With the meeting canceled, O'Neill said it's not clear what happens next.
"I thought we asked for as much [meetings] as we could. Can we ask for more? I don't know. I'm going to have to talk with DEP and to Evergreen," he said.
DEP representatives at the meeting said the decision was on the city and Evergreen. To what O'Neill said "If DEP wants it to happen, it will happen."
Evergreen representatives at the meeting did not comment on future steps. But Evergreen released a statement Friday morning that expressed disappointment at what happened Thursday, when they "planned to have a productive dialogue with interested public regarding Evergreen's ongoing remediation activities at the Philadelphia Refinery.
"Our goal was to offer a summary of the process and key results of our work thus far, as well as to take questions from the public, kicking off a four-month comment period before holding another meeting next spring. We have a lot of information to share that will aid the public's review of the Act 2 Remedial Investigation Reports."
Updates on the process can be checked on the cleanup website.

The market put in some well-deserved rest last week, holding nicely above former resistance and carving out some short-term resistance as well. We're range-bound at the moment, but in a momentum-based market, that's not likely to last for long.
Here in Episode 148, we'll examine the NAZ, S&P 500, and DJIA and discuss some important levels to monitor going forward. Hope you find it helpful!


Got some craziness coming up this Monday.
Remember I did a show picking my favourite songs under 2 minutes, then I went crazy and did my favourite songs under 1 minute. Well now i'm institutionalized because I'm doing my favourite songs under 30 seconds (yes really there are surprisingly a lot).

Pandora Says Laboratory-Made Diamonds Are Forever
May 5, 2021 admin	No Comments
The world's biggest jeweller, Pandora, says it will no longer sell mined diamonds and will switch to exclusively laboratory-made diamonds.
Concerns about the environment and working practices in the mining industry have led to growing demand for alternatives to mined diamonds.
Pandora's chief executive, Alexander Lacik, told the BBC the change was part of a broader sustainability drive.
He said the firm was pursuing it because "it's the right thing to do".
They are also cheaper: "We can essentially create the same outcome as nature has created, but at a very, very different price."
Mr Lacik explains they can be made for as little as "a third of what it is for something that we've dug up from the ground."
In 2020, worldwide lab-grown diamond production grew to between 6 and 7 million carats.
Meanwhile the production of mined diamonds fell to 111 million carats last year, having peaked at 152 million in 2017, according to a report from the Antwerp World Diamond Centre (AWDC) and the consultancy Bain & Company.
Production fell most in Russia, Canada, Botswana and Australia.

The coronavirus pandemic has had a major impact on the diamond industry. De Beers, which produces about one-fifth of the world's mined diamonds, says production fell 18% last year.
Economic uncertainty and lockdowns led to a slump in demand and falling prices, although there has been something of a recovery since.
Sales boost?
Pandora's lab-made diamonds are being made in Britain, and the UK is the first country where they will be sold.
The new diamond jewellery will start at £250 ($350). Although diamonds have traditionally only been a very small share of the 100 million pieces Pandora sells worldwide each year, Mr Lacik believes that will be boosted by lower prices.
"Pandora jewellery today is much more of an everyday type of jewellery, even though a large proportion of it is gifted. The way the diamond industry has kind of been created to a large degree has been very much about gifting, and in particular around when people get engaged or married".
image captionPandora CEO Alexander Lacik thinks lab-grown diamonds can help the whole industry grow
"We're trying to open up this playing field and say, you know, with the type of value equation that we offer, you can use this everyday if you want."
He expects people to buy gifts more often for themselves instead.
"What might very well happen is actually that the total demand for diamonds is going to increase. So it may actually not be a question of, we steal somebody else's lunch".
image captionPandora hopes that the lower price of lab-made diamonds will lead to increased sales
Olya Linde, the lead author of the Bain report, agrees that there is room for both.
"I believe that natural diamonds and lab grown diamonds can wonderfully coexist and grow the overall diamond market. There's clear demand for each type of product."
Better design and lower prices are, says Ms Linde, the top reasons why customers pick lab-made diamonds over their naturally occurring counterparts.
Concerns about the environmental, sustainability and ethical impact of mined diamonds didn't make the top five.
Changing tastes
However, Bain's survey found that concerns about sustainability were more important to "Millennials" and "Gen-Z" than older age groups when buying diamond jewellery.
One problem with lab-made diamonds, though, is that they can take a lot of energy to produce.
Between 50% and 60% of them come from China, where they are made in a process known as "high-pressure, high-temperature technology". The use of coal powered electricity is widespread.
However in the United States, the biggest retail market for lab-grown diamonds, there is a greater focus on using renewable energy.
The largest US producer, Diamond Foundry, says its process is "100% hydro-powered, meaning zero emissions".
Both types are chemically and physically identical to mined diamonds.
But conflict-free production is still a big concern for customers across different age groups, according to Bain.
It's now more than 20 years since the Kimberley Process came into force. The UN-backed process aims to stop diamonds being used to fuel conflicts after years of that happening in countries such as Angola, Ivory Coast, Sierra Leone and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
image captionActor Leonardo DiCaprio invested in Diamond Foundry after starring in Hollywood thriller "Blood Diamond"
Last year, a report by Human Rights Watch found that some major jewellery companies were doing better at sourcing mined diamonds, "but most cannot assure consumers that their jewellery is untainted by human rights abuses".
It found that Pandora was one of the best performers, having taken significant steps towards responsible sourcing.
But for the World Diamond Council (WDC), which represents the mined diamond industry, lab-made diamonds are not the answer.
It says any suggestion they "would have a role in preventing trade in conflict diamonds is spurious and not based on fact".
The WDC adds that for people living in artisanal and small-scale diamond mining communities stopping the mining of diamonds "would remove a primary source of income" and "would have devastating impacts on their livelihoods, causing poverty and further unrest".
Pandora chief Mr Lacik says the long term is what matters when it comes to the company's approach to sustainability.
"Whether consumers are buying more or less today, right now is actually not the key driver," he says.
"We want to become a low-carbon business. I have four children, I'm leaving this earth one day, I hope I can leave it in a better shape than maybe what we've kind of created in the last 50 years or so."

fatal accident
wrong way driver
Monday, September 25, 2017 - 08:52
Sittard family killed in crash with wrong-way driver
Three Dutch people were killed in a serious accident with a wrong-way driver on the A67 near Rüsselsheim, Germany on Saturday night. The victims are a family from Sittard, the Limburg police confirmed to newspaper AD.
The victims are a 53-year-old father, a 51-year-old mother and their 20-year-old daughter, according to the newspaper. They were on holiday when the accident happened, the authorities believe. "Officers in Sittard had a bad news conversation with the relatives", a spokesperson for the Limburg police said to AD. "We also informed the mayor of the municipality Sittard-Geleen."
The accident was caused by a 34-year-old Polish truck driver, who turned his truck around on the A67 around 8:30 p.m. on Saturday. The local authorities believe he did so to avoid a traffic jam. After driving in the wrong direction on the highway for around 3 kilometers, the truck crashed into a BMW with German license plates, and a Skoda with Dutch plates. The three Dutch died at the scene. The four women in the BMW sustained minor injuries. The Polish trucker was seriously injured and is in critical condition.
"Occasionally drivers will reverse with their hazards on in the emergency lane if their is a traffic jam", a police spokesperson said to German media. "But I've never seen anything like this." According to the spokesperson, the police believe the Polish driver knew what he was doing when he turned his truck around on the highway. The police are also investigating whether he was under the influence.

Q: How to create calculation in MySQL between date and price I'm want to calculate the date to count days and calculate with price or custom price in MySQL.
This is booking table
CREATE TABLE tbl_booking(

booking_id int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
user_id int(11),
comp_id int(11),
register_number varchar(100),
booking_status int(11),
pick_date date,
drop_date date,)

This is vehicle table
CREATE TABLE tbl_vehicle(
register_number varchar(100) NOT null,
vehicle_model varchar(255),
vehicle_type varchar(255),
vehicle_price varchar(10));

So, like this:
totalprice = (pick_date - drop_date) * vehicle_price

A: Join two tables on common column which seems to be register_number then use datediff to calculate the difference in days between two dates and multiply it by price to get total price for each booking:
select
  b.*,
  datediff(b.drop_date, b.pick_date) * v.price as total_price
from tbl_booking b
inner join tbl_vehicle v on
  b.register_number = v.register_number

Remember that you should substract later date from an earlier one (drop - pick) instead of (pick - drop) since this will give you a negative number.

A: Use below :
DATEDIFF(pick_date , drop_date) * price

DATEDIFF will give you day different between two dates.
SELECT DATEDIFF("2017-06-25", "2017-06-15");

Output will be : 10
As you price is in another table hope you will be able to join and calculate.

A: You can convert the date field data into days, then subtract them, and multiply with price. Please note that the syntax can vary among the different implementations of SQL. With the correct MySQL syntax this would be:
SELECT (TO_DAYS(drop_date) - TO_DAYS(pick_date)) * price FROM tbl_booking;

Also note that according to your code, tbl_booking does not contain the price field, so you'll probably need to join with another table as well.

                }

but not working also tired for converting it to Datatable
public DataTable XML2DT(string xmlData)
        {
            StringReader theReader = new StringReader(xmlData);
            DataSet theDataSet = new DataSet();
            theDataSet.ReadXml(theReader);

            return theDataSet.Tables[0];
        }

return error , so can anyone help me to convert it to any usable object to store there new data

A: Please try below code snippet.
string xmlFile = "Data.xml";
DataSet dataSet = new DataSet();
dataSet.ReadXml(xmlFile, XmlReadMode.InferSchema);

A: Using xml linq you can put into a dictionary :
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        const string FILENAME = @"c:\temp\test.xml";
         static void Main(string[] args)
         {
             XDocument doc = XDocument.Load(FILENAME);

             Dictionary<string, string> dict = doc.Descendants("row").FirstOrDefault().Elements()
                 .GroupBy(x => x.Name.LocalName, y => (string)y)
                 .ToDictionary(x => x.Key, y => y.FirstOrDefault());

         }
    }

}

A: If you define yourself classes:
public class root
{
    public row[] inserted {get;set;}
}

public class row
{
    public int invoice_id {get;set;}
    public int invoice_type {get;set;}
    .....
}

and you use Xml-Serialization
    var ser = new XmlSerializer(typeof(root));
    var root = (root)ser.Deserialize(new StringReader( yourxmlstring ));

than you have a type-safe conversion of all your xml.
I assume your row-Element maybe repeated (is a List), while the inserted-tag is unique.
It's not really a "List or Datatable" but still good for Databinding.
Unless your list of properties changes daily and you don't known them in advance.

Why Invest Some Bucks on Insulation?
Maintaining the comfortable temperature of our home and making it as an ideal place of refuge is important to us. But in order to maintain this and to ward off temperature and climate change, some may pay for a higher electricity price. Energy bills can be quite costly during the cold seasons. On the other hand, during summer months, the AC system may not be enough to ease away the hot atmosphere inside our house. So if you are thinking of better ways to solve this problem and to find solutions for energy cost cutting, seeking for insulation services is the key.
Why is it beneficial and sensible to invest in insulation? Because aside from sustaining the comfort of indoor temperature, it could give monthly savings on your electricity bills too! A properly insulated household keeps every home warmer during the cold seasons and can minimize the load of your AC system during the summer months.
Insulation services can offer and give some advice on maximizing energy efficiency options through their innovative solutions to create a better environment on your property. Aside from providing the best energy management, it can also give superior and adequate protection on your home or building's structural reliability. Of course, due to the popularity of insulation works, one must seek the services of a company or a contractor that has gained expertise and training over this particular kind of job.
One better type of quality insulation is by the use of foam insulation as it will be applied permanently to prevent any problems of some of the traditional insulation types that will sag over a period of time. Aside from that, foam insulation has the lowest air filtration among all other types since it can prevent any amount of moisture and air from getting inside the insulation barrier. Once sprayed and becomes hardened, it then expands, leaving a tight seal on any structure that will be applied to this. It is said that foam insulation can minimize energy costs up to 40-50 percent! Furthermore, this type of insulation can get hard to reach surfaces.
Be aware though that installing insulation by yourself can be really risky. Although a lot of insulation "do-it-yourself" devices are available in the market, it is still best to seek professional help from the people who are trained about this work. By doing this on your own, you might end up damaging your residential structure, leaving you unwanted repair costs. Knowledge about insulation services is critical for the success of having a well insulated home or building. That is why it's better to seek professional guidance and help.
If you want to know more about Insulation, call us at (778)-240-0162.
