Depression in Montreal is highly prevalent in our society. In fact, it has been referred to as the "common cold" of emotional difficulties. Taking into account all ailments (physical and psychological), depression ranks among the most costly to our society.
Genes and stress are known causes of depression in Montreal. However, these factors do not fully explain the onset of most depressive episodes.
In at least 60% of cases, when one identical twin becomes depressed the other will not.
Only about 10% of individuals who experience stressful events equivalent in severity to those experienced by the average depressed person become depressed themselves.
Depression is a bigger problem in more affluent countries than in less affluent countries.
These findings suggest that depression is highly related to negative perceptions or maladaptive interpretations of life circumstances.
How can CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) help for depression?
CBT is clinically proven to be an effective treatment for depression!
Therapy for depression focuses on helping you change the maladaptive interpretations which play a significant role in the development and/or maintainance of your sadness. Therapy helps you to become aware of your negative thoughts and teaches you to replace them with more adaptive interpretations thus breaking the cycle of depression. Since interpretations/thoughts are highly related to behaviors, therapy also focuses on helping you implement actions which counteract depression. In fact, research suggests that certain behavioral changes are as effective for alleviating mild to moderate depression as altering thoughts or even taking medication!
Though CBT focuses on solving current difficulties, understanding how one's developmental history relates to existing emotional problems can help decrease the likelihood of recurrent bouts of depression. In order to reduce the possibility of relapse, interested clients can engage in a more in-depth examination of the roots of their depression known as schema-focused therapy. This type of CBT helps clients to identify the foundation of their persistent negative interpretations. Patterns of maladaptive thoughts result from a set of core beliefs often based on negative early experiences. For example, highly critical or neglectful parents behave in ways that are harmful to the mental health of their children. Such parental behaviors can be understood by children as representing undeniable truths about themselves, namely, that they are inadequate or unworthy of love. Although such interpretations are faulty, the roots for a negative interpretational style begin to take hold. Eventually, a sense of inadequacy and low self-worth become core beliefs which set the foundation for depression. Schema-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy encourages you to challenge the legitimacy of these negative core beliefs - it targets the foundation upon which your daily negative interpretations eventually cause depression.
** Important** This type of in-depth CBT focusing on distorted core beliefs is not required for your mood to improve.
<>Lastly, beliefs and behaviors associated with happiness are discussed and encouraged. The goal here is not simply to reduce sadness but also to move towards what makes you happy. In doing so, depression is less likely to recur.
In sum, CBT for depression focuses on changing your current maladaptive interpretations and behaviors which have caused or maintain your depression. For some clients a more in-depth analysis of the roots of depression and/or an examination of what makes them happy can also be beneficial components of therapy.
If you feel depressed in Montreal, psychologists at the Montreal Psychology Center can help.

Man captures neighbor's racist rant on camera
She was upset at her neighbor over leaves not being cleaned up.
By: Tom George
A Facebook video shot by a Las Vegas man has been shared thousands of times on social media, showing his neighbor going off on a racist rant.
The video all stemmed from an argument between Dexter Manawat and his next door neighbor over cleaning up leaves.
He says that's when his neighbor got out her broom and started hurling anti-Filipino slurs at him.
"Where did I come from?" Manawat asks at one point.
The neighbor says "from some piece of s***, Manila-a**, f***** ghetto living under a tarp piece of s**** land."
In other parts of the video, the neighbor calls Manawat "like orange savages."
Manawat says after he shared the video, many of his friends in the Filipino community were offended.
"I've never been called orange," he says. "That was a first."
We caught up with the woman in the video. She says she's afraid of retaliation after the video went viral.
But she also was in tears as she sincerely apologized. She says she and Manawat have had issues as neighbors for years, and the rant came at a moment of frustration and weakness.
"I stooped to the lowest possible denominator to hurt someone because I was angry," she says.
She says her anger wasn't directed at the Filipino community but toward her neighbor.
Manawat admits he's not the perfect neighbor either but says his neighbor crossed the line.
"I'll miss certain things around my yard, but that doesn't mean you have to go off on my culture and nationality," he says.
The neighbor says many who see the video will assume she's racist or a bad person, but she wants people to know that's not who she is.
"I wasn't raised that way," she says.
Both she and Manawat say they're open to doing mediation to they can put aside their differences and get along as neighbors.

Automata Formula by George Coleman sounds like a good ol' millionaire dream – making huge profits without having to do anything at all? Who wouldn't want that? Of course, it's almost a given that Automata Formula is a scam, but how does it work?
In this Automata Formula review, I'll reveal why the software isn't what George describes it to be, how it makes money from you, and the real way to making money online.
I've seen the same trick again and again – some scammers promise to help inexperienced internet users make money online, only to take their money and disappear without a trace.
This is the way online scams work, and it's so rampant partly because the victims have no way of catching the culprits.
Unfortunately, there is no way to get a refund on the losses. The victims can only withdraw what's remaining in their trading account, which is typically just a fraction of their initial deposit.
What is Automata Formula All About?
Automata Formula is a generic binary trading software that is designed to trade binary options on your behalf, which is a risky trading instrument that works like gambling.
When you register for an account on Automata Formula website, you are actually signing up for an unregulated broker account which affiliated with the scam.
You'll need to fund at least $250 to start trading. However, George emphasizes that it's not a payment in order to lure you into the scam.
Once you activate Automata Formula, it starts to generate random trades on your behalf. Victims typically lose all their deposits within hours of activating the software.
These losses are pocketed by the broker, which is then shared with the scammers behind Automata Formula software.
Even though it doesn't cost you anything to use the software, the scammers make money from their victims through the trading deposits.
As reliable as he seems, "George Coleman", the alleged founder of Automata Formula software is actually a seasoned actor when it comes to binary software scams.
He has been featured in multiple other scams, including ones that I have reviewed recently such as Orion Code and The Amissio Formula.
Similarly, these scams promised to make easy profits for their users, just to siphon their trading funds away via a series of losing trades.
I believe we'll see more of the same actor in upcoming scams, so look out for him if you happen to come across more millionaire software.
There is simply no push-button software when it comes to making money online, no matter how the scammers want to sugarcoat it.
You need to forget all these empty promises and learn how to build an online business if you are really dedicated to make a living from the internet.
In the sales video, we can see a few video testimonials from the "members" of Automata Formula.
These members seem to have made good money using the software and transformed their financial lives.
Now that we know the founder of the software is fabricated, what's stopping them from hiring more actors to confuse their victims?
And that's exactly what they did. These video testimonials can be bought for as low as $5 from Fiverr.com. These are freelance actors, and you can even buy one if you wanted.
All you need to do is to provide them a script and they'll say whatever you want.
I do not condone or condemn the act of buying and selling fake testimonials, but I want you to be aware of this – that fake testimonials can be bought very easily.
As much as the scammers want to keep you in the dark, they have to reveal the true nature of the scam somewhere in the website to avoid lawsuits.
Much like the hidden terms and conditions of some hideous products, Automata Formula is hiding the truth behind the risk disclaimer above.
The terms cannot be found anywhere in the sales material, because it is supposed to be hidden from you. However, you can access their original disclaimer at this link automataformula.co/terms to make sure the screenshot above is authentic.
Despite coercing you to sign up for the "free" money-making software, Automata Formula denies inviting you to trade binary options.
Note: Frauds that promise unrealistic returns like Automata Formula are illegal in many jurisdiction. If they do not include this clause, they are deemed to illegally coerce you into signing up for the scam.
Automata Formula admits that trading binary options is extremely risky, and it's your own responsibility if you decide to sign up and lose all your investments.
NO REAL TRADES HAVE BEEN EXECUTED using the software. All profits quoted in the sales material are fake.
AUTOMATA FORMULA IS A SCAM. I strongly advise you to stay away from the scam if you don't want to lose your hard-earned money.

The Ouza Title Match between Ouza title holder Habu and challenger 7-Dan Toyoshima started today. Ouza is one of the 7 major titles, and played as a 5-game match.
Both players have 5 hours of thinking time and each game is played within one day different from Oui Title Match.
You can check the game on this site.
Habu had been holding Ouza for 19 years. This is the record for holding the same title continuously. And he has 4 of 7 titles now.
Yagura, Silver-46 Strategy has been played.
You may be surprised that the position is in the endgame already at noon. But, actually, there were several precedents until △S*69. And Habu played a new move with ▲G78-68 against △S*69. I guess he prepared for this move in advance.
It's a complicated game. I'm expecting high level moves will go on from here.
The computer ( Bonanza) evaluates the position as better for Gote, but again Sente won in this variation. What is the role of computers in the preperation for shogi games at the highest level? Is there any examples of a computer move improving on known josekis eg.? Keep up the good work, very interesting material to read.
Like you said, the latest software in my computer pointed out that gote is slightly better. I guess challenger Toyoshima knew the evaluation until Habu played the new move. He usually use the computer for analysis.
I often find other lines in joseki by using computers. Joseki is not always perfect especially old joseki.

In the 12 days since Donald Trump took the oath of office, a steady stream of social media posts have called for the new president's assassination.
The posts are pretty basic and many are jokes or sarcastic or hyperbolic — but there are a lot of them. In a Dataminr search of Twitter posts since Inauguration Day containing the phrase "assassinate Trump" more than 12,000 tweets came up.
The U.S. Secret Service, however, or even Twitter and Facebook themselves, doesn't seem to be jumping onto many of these posts. When we asked several users about their recent "assassinate Trump" posts, all of them said they hadn't been contacted by anyone about their post and they all remain up.
But there have been reports of agents knocking on the doors of social media users. A Kentucky woman who tweeted, "If someone was cruel enough to assassinate MLK, maybe someone will be kind enough to assassinate Trump," is currently being investigated by the Secret Service, according to the Associated Press.
That's why one-off posts and people with no record of threatening messages tend to get passed over. He said the Secret Service is looking out for trends and consistent behavior, like the person who repeats their intent to kill the president over time. If someone has made threats in the past they are more likely to get investigated when they post another "Kill Trump" post.
"They're not going to to beat down the door of everybody who makes a negative Twitter comment," Franklin said, which may be a relief to anyone who tweeted an off-hand and not entirely serious death wish for the new president.
On the platform side, Facebook and Twitter have policies in place to take down threatening posts. As Twitter said in an email statement, "The Twitter Rules prohibit threats of violence, and we will suspend accounts violating that policy." Facebook similarly said under their "credible threats policy" they remove posts showing intent to kill the president.
Yet thousands of posts that use the words "kill" and "assassinate" remain up — most of them targeting the president no less. The platforms can't seem to keep up with the influx of death threats and don't seem to be upholding their own policies as strictly as they would like.
Franklin, the former Secret Service agent, said because Trump heavily uses social media to talk about controversial executive actions and ideas, he is being targeted on Twitter more than Barack Obama or George W. Bush were during their presidencies, at least in these first days. But that's not to say Obama and Bush didn't get their fair share of online hate.
Franklin says for law enforcement it's not about the person or politics of the president, but about protecting the office. "We focus on the protection aspect and let others worry about politics," he said.
Nevertheless, as Franklin notes, "It's an American right to be able to express those opinions." But maybe slow down on those violent rallying cries, and certainly don't let your rhetoric cross over into talk about inflicting bodily harm, killing or even kidnapping — there's a line, and if you cross it, be ready for a knock at your door.

Q: Convergence in Measure, Different Definitions Let $(X, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E \subseteq X$ measurable, and $f_n$ a sequence of measurable functions on $E$.  If $f$ is another function on $E$, I have seen two definitions for what it means for $f_n$ to converges to $f$ in measure:
(i) For any $\epsilon > 0$, there is an $N$ such that for all $n \geq N$, $\{ x \in E : |f_n(x) - f(x)| \geq \epsilon \}$ has measure $< \epsilon$.
(ii) For any $\epsilon > 0$, there is a measurable set $A$ with measure $< \epsilon$, and an $N$ such that for all $n \geq N$ and all $x \in E \setminus A$, $|f_n(x) - f(x)| < \epsilon$.
Both these definitions are given in Royden ( (i) is given specifically for the Lebesgue measure, (ii) for general spaces).  A few questions:
1 .  It does not appear anywhere in the definition that $f$ is measurable.  A pointwise limit of measurable functions is measurable provided $\mu$ is complete, but even for a complete measure I see no reason why $f$ should be measurable in the definition above unless we define convergence in measure to require this.  I don't even see why $\{x \in E: |f_n(x) - f(x)| \geq \epsilon \}$ should be measurable.
2 .  The same question for definition (ii).
3 .  Whether the definitions imply each other.  Definition (i) seems to imply definition (ii).

A: It is my understanding that $f$ needs to be measurable before talking about convergence in measure (for either definition). For question 3, you are correct that (i) implies (ii) by choosing $A = \{|f_n - f|>\epsilon\}$.
For the other direction, simply note that $E\setminus A \subset \{|f_n - f|<\epsilon\}$, so $A \supset \{ |f_n - f| > \epsilon \}$, and consequently $\mu[|f_n - f| > \epsilon ] \leq \mu(A) < \epsilon$.

Marilyn Horne's Art Song at Carnegie
Weill Music Institute is Home to Education
By: Susan Hall - Jan 19, 2017
Marilyn Horne continues the song
Marilyn Horne teaching.
Wee Kiat Chia. Superb countertenor. Watch for him in Boston.
Noragh Devin has a rich, dark mezzo.
Brittany Nickell followed instructions. The result, a beautiful, flowing line in her voice.
Alexandra Smither, worked through Schumann questions in her lovely soprano.
Marilyn Horne Master Class
Resnick Education Center
Weill Music Institute
Marilyn Horne's father saw Shirley Temple on the big screen and thought his daughter belonged there too. At the age of two she first performed in public. Here was a stage father whose personal aspirations matched his daughter's talents. For decades Marilyn Horne has given great pleasure as a performer and extended the audience for the art song.
Wee Kiat Chia, a countertenor currently studying at Boston University, was the only singer who Ms. Horne did not know, the outsider. He studies voice with a soprano, and the pure texture of his 'falsetto' is very true. He is already a master of the felt phrase, giving the appearance of ease. His song choices were delightful.
Horne suggests that she often sang the Xavier Montsalvatge Lullaby at the end of a program. Although it was positioned first on this program, Wee Kiat Chia followed the master's lead and sang Robert Schumann's Ich grosse nicht from A Poet's Love first. Wee Kiat Chia had a gorgeous take on Schumann, high in the head and smooth of tone, full of feeling.
Bringing the voice forward in the mouth, breathing often (and under cover), not projecting too much so that you can be heard, but maintain a sustained tone were all encouraged.
Beyond technical lessons of voice production and emphasis on consonants, which Horne produces herself as a perfect example, she teaches by her presence. She is very warm and often humorous at her own expense. While she worked with Wee Kiat Chia on the Lullaby, she recounted her own experience in putting her grandchildren to bed. "Would you like me to sing a lullaby," she recalls asking. "No," they screamed. "Shall I sing to you?" Another "No" was yelled.
Horne asks Wee Kiat Chia who is singing this song. "I am remembering my mother's lullaby," he replies. "Well, you can't sing remembering." While Wee Kiat Chia did not contest, it's clear that many songs are rememberings, a re-creation of past circumstance or mood.
The three other singers had worked with Horne before and knew her ways. For Wee Kiat Chia, it was a new experience. Yet he was able to quickly understand and incorporate what was asked of him. He had no difficulty identifying his faults, bad habits and certain awkward hand gestures.
Instruction often centered around bringing the voice forward. The voice sounds mellow when placed in the back of the throat. It may be less scarey for an artist to let it sit there. Trusting your voice to carry, pronouncing consonants distinctly, even two "ts" in "Mit-ter nacht." Noragh Devlin's dark, lush mezzo was heightened by these consonants, and also the suggestion again that the voice not be pressed for high octane volume.
Horne told us that Devlin was not a natural and had worked hard to develop her special mezzo. Brittany Nickell had a pure, sustained sound when she stopped pushing for volume. Alexandra Smither invited us to join Schumann as his musical line questions.
At one point, Horne noticed that the lid of the piano was opened wide. She immediately asked that it be almost shut, saying that it was her preference. All hands on deck immediately lowered the lid.
Horne makes the case for the art song in her very presence. We look at her and remember the voice. We listen as she coaches, encourages and shapes artists who will go out to take up her mission in song. Carnegie Hall does a great service by providing listeners a front row sit as singing careers are launched.

Little Boy With Autism Gets A Dog Who Changes His Life For The Better
By Ashley Maisano
This little boy named Tupper has autism and has always had a really hard time sleeping at night. He would always have nightmares so he'd only sleep between 20 and 45 minutes at a time. On top of that, he struggled with emotional problems and would bang his head on the floors and walls because he didn't know how to calm himself down.
Enter Lego. Tupper's service dog who came and made all of his nightmares disappear. Lego was the best friend Tupper never knew he needed. Lego stays by Tupper's side at all times and is an extreme sense of comfort.
Adventures of Tupper and Lego
When it's time for bed, Lego rests his head on top of Tupper to help him sleep through the night. With Lego cuddling with him, Tupper falls asleep within five minutes as opposed to it taking an hour or two like it used to before Lego came along.
Lego can sense when Tupper is getting upset and is able to comfort him until he calms down. He even puts his paw over Tupper to prevent him from running away. Whenever Lego lays his head on Tupper, it creates pressure which helps Tupper feel calmer.
Tupper loves Lego and knows that he is there to help him. If he needs comforting, he reaches out to Lego and pets him. Lego is not just his service dog, but they've become the best of friends. The bond they share is so strong, unique, and one-of-a-kind. It's even made their family stronger as well.
Tupper used to struggle in his everyday life, not just with sleeping but in public as well. While at the mall, he used to scream and try to run away; but now he is able to focus on walking with Lego and stays much more calm. These two were definitely meant to be!
Make sure to follow all of Tupper and Lego's adventures on their Facebook and Instagram pages. And watch this adorable dynamic duo in the video below:
Growing up, Ashley always had a passion for writing. After receiving her Bachelor's in Journalism from Stony Brook University, she now uses that passion to write about the thing she loves most in this world: animals! When she isn't writing, you can find her curled up on the couch with a kindle in her hands and her Guinea Pigs on her lap.

This has got to be one of my favorite scenes from Monty Python's Life of Brian.
Actually, I am positive that no one was actually stoned in ancient Judea for saying "Jehovah". How can I be so sure? Because you could dance down the streets of first century Jerusalem shouting "Jehovah" at the top of your voice and no one would have a clue what you were saying.
The word Jehovah is actually a mispronunciation.
There are several words used to identify the deity in the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible, but God's personal name is revealed to be a word made up of the Hebrew letters: י(yodh), ה(he), ך (waw), ה (he), which, converted to our Roman alphabet, is rendered YHWH, or YHVH. The name YHWH seems to be derived from a root word in Hebrew which means something like "that which is" or " that which is eternally existent.
Centuries later, Jesus identified himself as I AM seven times in the Gospel of John.
To the Jews in the crowd, Jesus was clearly claiming to be divine. Either he was blaspheming or insane. Either way, it seemed like it might be a good idea to stone him.
You probably have noticed that the Divine Name consists of four consonants and no vowels. This is because the Hebrew alphabet has 22 consonants and no vowels. This is not as great a handicap in Hebrew as it would be in English because Hebrew, being a Semitic language, has a vocabulary based largely on root words of three consonants. The basic meaning of a word depends on the root consonants with vowels and additional consonants providing nuances of meaning, such as verb forms, cases, etc. In most cases, only the consonants are really needed to understand at least the basic meaning of a written work. Most scholars believe that YHVN is pronounced Yahweh.
So, how did Yahweh become Jehovah? The Jews believed, and still believe, that God's personal name was too sacred to be pronounced aloud. When reading from the Hebrew Bible, either in liturgical or other uses, they developed the custom of saying the word "Adonai", meaning "The Lord".
Hebrew had ceased to be a spoken language by the time of Jesus. That made understanding the Hebrew Bible a little more difficult, so sometime in the later half of the first millennium, the Hebrew scribes, known as Masorotes, developed a system for writing vowels. They didn't introduce any new letters but created a system of diacritical marks called Niqqud. The Jewish scribes did not want anyone to accidentally pronounce the Name so they combined YHVH with the vowel marks for Adonai, resulting in something like YaHoVaH, or Jehovah.
During the Middle Ages, the only Bible known by Christians in western Europe was the Latin Vulgate. Knowledge of the Greek language of the New Testament and classical writers was all but unknown in the West. Starting from the fourteenth century, however, as the Byzantine Empire fell to the Turks, Greek speaking scholars fled to the West, bringing knowledge of the Greek language and ancient Greek manuscripts, including the Bible. Renaissance scholars eagerly learned Greek from them and used this knowledge to produce new and better translations of the Greek manuscripts into Latin and the various vernacular languages. Among the works of translation was the New Testament. But the Renaissance scholars also wanted to translate the Old Testament from the original Hebrew, so they learned Hebrew as well.
The first person known to have used the word Jehovah seems to be Galantinus, who learned Hebrew and Aramaic with the intent of using the Jew's own scriptures and doctrines,including the Hebrew Bible and the Cabbala, to refute them. He, and others were unaware of the pronunciation of YHWH and assumed the the diacritical marks were the correct ones. Most early printed editions of the Bible, including Tyndale's English translation, used Jehovah, though others used "The Lord" where YHVH is in the text, including later editions of the King James Bible.
Modern editions of the Bible, including the New International Version, generally print "The Lord" in small capital letters. There are still editions of the Bible that say Jehovah, though fewer than before and it seems the use of Jehovah for the name of God is dying out, at least in English language translations. I have only seen one translation that uses "Yahweh", the World English Bible.
So, the next time any Jehovah's Witnesses show up at your door, you can tell them that they have their name all wrong. They should be calling themselves "Yahweh's Witnesses".

Egyptian Sci Fi Novelist Nabil Farouk Dies at 64
Dr. Nabil Farouk (1956-2020), who along with Ahmed Khaled Tawfik popularized science fiction among young Egyptian readers, died today:
His daughter, Reham Farouk, announced that he had died of a heart attack.
Farouk, born in Tanta, Egypt in February 1956, is one of the region's most popular and prolific authors of detective and sci-fi novels, having published more than 500 books.
He studied medicine, graduating from the Tanta School of Medicine in 1980. He began publishing his most popular series in the mid-1980s, and his books rose to popularity among Egyptian teens in the 1990s.
He is the author of a number of series, most famously Future Files, Impossible Man, and Cocktail 2000. One hundred and sixty books appeared in the "Impossible Man" series alone, which is headed up by undercover agent Adham Sabry. It ran from 1984 through 2008.
Emirati writer Salha Obeaid said on Twitter that, as a child reader, she used to buy new books in "The Future Files" series every time the family visited Egypt, and that she believes it was this series "that led me to choose an electronic engineering major at university."
Egyptian author Mansoura Ez Eldin added that she had all the releases in "The Impossible Man," "The Future Files," and "Cocktail 2000" series, "whose heroes were my childhood companions. "
Farouk also wrote for a number of newspapers, including El Akhbar, Sobian Wi Banat, and El Dostour.
One of Farouk's novels appeared in English in 2015, Midnight Sun, in a self-published translation by Husam Abu Sarris.

Idaho commits to 100% clean energy by 2045
By Michelle Froese | March 28, 2019
Idaho Power has set a goal to provide 100% clean energy by 2045. Idaho Power is among the first publicly owned energy companies to set a goal for reaching 100% clean energy. To achieve the goal, the company plans to continue its path away from coal and invest in storage and additional clean generation sources like wind and solar.
Idaho's power mix. The "Clean Today, Cleaner Tomorrow" effort will build on the company's 100-year history that's been dedicated to cleaner energy sources, providing reliable service at affordable prices.
"Providing 100% clean energy is an important goal for Idaho Power. More and more customers are telling us it is important to them, too," Idaho Power President and CEO Darrel Anderson said. "We believe this goal is attainable. We have a great head start, thanks to our clean hydropower plants that produce almost half the energy our customers use. Our recently signed agreement with Jackpot Holdings moves us even closer."
Clean energy resources are becoming more affordable, which could help Idaho Power accomplish its goal while keeping prices fair. Grid upgrades and battery-storage technology should help maintain Idaho Power's impressive reliability while moving the company closer to its goal. Continued energy efficiency efforts will help.
"This plan demonstrates Idaho Power's commitment to doing what's right for customers' pocketbooks and the environment," Idaho Gov. Brad Little said. "It also shows innovation can improve our lives with solutions that are reasonably priced, responsible and delivered without government intrusion."
Clean energy initiatives are not new to Idaho Power. In 2009, the company adopted a resolution to reduce carbon emissions. Since then, it has made sustainable, measurable advances toward a clean-energy future, all while providing reliable power at affordable prices.
Idaho Power has reduced its carbon emissions intensity — measured in pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) per megawatt-hour — by almost 50 percent since 2005. The company has entered agreements to end participation in two coal plants and is exploring exiting a third — and final — coal plant.
Idaho Power already buys a significant amount of energy generated by wind and solar resources. The company sells the renewable energy credits attached to this energy to benefit the customer.
Boise Mayor David Bieter praised Idaho Power's new goal and its alignment with a similar goal the City of Boise is developing for community-wide energy use. "This is an ambitious goal that illustrates Idaho Power's commitment to the future of the communities they serve," Bieter said. "It's exciting to think about what we might achieve together by working toward a common goal of 100% clean electricity."
In a separate news release issued today, Idaho Power demonstrated its commitment to energy that's both clean and affordable with a landmark agreement to buy up to 120 MW of solar power. The price for this energy is among the lowest on record. The energy will come from a generation facility to be built south of Twin Falls by Idaho company Jackpot Holdings, LLC. In the coming days, Idaho Power will send this agreement to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission for approval.

After comsidering the fedback I got from the previous 'Massive scalability thread, I decided to split my queries into two areas: Rack scalability and ZCatalog scalability. This email deals with the former. It seems clear that indexing and searching are more of a botleneck than storage/retreival.
Michael Bernstein wrote: Also, is there a way to disable wildcards in full text searches? Do not allow direct queries to search the catalog. Instead, make searches go through an external method (or a PythonScript with Proxy permissions) that uses string.replace to change '*' and '?' to ''.

Being from Texas, he has primarily been involved in the energy and industrial industries. Helping exhibitors maximize ROI is Craig's passion and goal with each and every event.
Do you produce events? Trade shows? Conferences? Are you maximizing your revenue? If you think you are, maybe you should still read on because I think you will find a few nuggets below.
Having spent the vast majority of my career in the events and show management industry and in talking to other show management professionals, keeping up with and coming up with innovative sponsorships can be a challenge.
In my last role, I had a great vendor with whom, when he was in town, I would go to dinner and "talk shop," specifically about what creative things he was seeing in the industry. We would then either replicate or innovate on those items to create new value, exposure and experiences for our exhibitors, sponsors and attendees.
What I have tried to do here is to provide some sponsorship ideas that I have implemented at my events while pulling together some other creative ideas and offerings that can be found at trade shows across many industries.
Some of these ideas may not work for your event or industry but perhaps will spark some creativity with you and your team to create new innovative offerings that will allow your shows to grow, your clients to get more value/exposure and provide your attendees with new experiences.
The Essentials: these are sponsorships that most shows will have and if you don't, then why not?
Lunches – Again, you are doing these functions anyway and if you can't get the full cost covered with the sponsorship you can get some of it off-set, but regardless, make sure you are giving the sponsor good value. You don't want to be penny-wise, pound foolish.
Depending on your event, the size, the venue, the industry and audience, there are many other sponsorships to offer. Below are 83 ideas for you to consider.
Mobile Device Charging Stations – There are standing displays where you can sit with your phone or lock it up and come back later, and there are portable chargers for attendees to walk around with and then return to the base when their devices are charged.
Escalator and Handrail Runners – If your event is on multiple levels, these can be very attractive, as attendees are up and down these multiple times a day.
Digital Entrance Units – Get away from the static entrance units and go with digital units where you can sell multiple rotating sponsorships, as well as also having the show graphics with different looks on the same unit. This is eye candy for the attendees. You can charge more because they are getting more. We had multiple individually sponsored exhibit entrances and offered the digital option instead of the static option – more exposure to the sponsor and more visually appealing to attendees.
Column Wraps – If you are in a building with columns, then sell a sponsorship for one or more of these. Depending on the size of the column, you can also sell digital column wraps.
Receptions – Depending on the industry and size of the event, you may not cover the full cost of the reception but if you are going to get it sponsored, then make sure the sponsor is getting good value/exposure for what they are paying.
Due to the limitations of space, I have reached the size limit of this post, however, if you would like the entire list, I am happy to send it to you. Please email cwm432@gmail.com with your name, company and email address and I will happily send you the full PDF of all 83 sponsorships to consider. I guarantee you there are some listed that you have not thought about!

These volumes are divided into short chapters, each of which discusses one particular aspect of life in the historical occupation, none in great detail.

Another decree issued by the French Ministry of the Environment, Energy and the Sea has set the new feed-in tariffs for residential and commercial PV projects up to 100 kW on the French mainland.
Among the key findings of the study is that power system balancing with 100 GW of solar and 60 GW of wind is achievable at 15-minute operational timescales with minimal RE curtailment.
After publishing the decree containing the FITs for rooftop PV projects up to 100 kW in Corsica and the overseas territories, France's Ministry of the Environment, Energy and the Sea (MEMM) has now issued the decree (Arrêté du 9 mai 2017) providing the new FIT levels for the same kind of installations in the French mainland.
The scheme, which includes a FIT digression rate in accordance with the volumes of new installed capacity registered in each quarter, sees power generation remunerated through the FIT capped at 1,600 hours per year.
The decree also introduces a new distinction between projects that sell all their power output to the grid and projects only for self-consumption. Furthermore, the new provisions will also gradually eliminate the highest FIT granted to BIPV projects compared to installations with simplified roof integration by September 2018.
The European Commission approved the FIT scheme for residential and commercial PV in early May. The EC highlighted that the French government hopes to install up to 2.1 GW of new PV capacity under the scheme.

Q: Thumbnails images on Jssor sliders have null src property Using jssor sliders with thumbnails, i populate the ng-src path attribute of the  images from a database :

The code above is further interpreted by a Js file made by Jssor.com which transforms it into the code below which works fine for the images part according to the browser :

but not for the thumbnails part which is shown in the browser like below :

I didn't mention any src tag above (but only ng-src) because of the expression between {{ }} that has to be interpreted by AngularJs.
UPDATE:
Here what the img.img and img.thumb contain:
{"records":[{"img":"img/A01.jpg","thumb": "img/thumbs/A01.jpg"},{"img":"img/A02.jpg","thumb": "img/thumbs/A02.jpg"}]}

EDIT:
As per requested by Jssor's team, below the final html rendered by Angular regarding the thumbnail part:

A: Your code seems to work well if the urls are correct, maybe there is another problem not related to Angular.

angular.module('app', []).controller('Main', function($scope) {
  $scope.resp = {
    "records": [{
      "img": "http://icons.iconarchive.com/icons/oxygen-icons.org/oxygen/128/Status-user-online-icon.png",

Saturday night was finally the moment where the sexual assault case went behind Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston when he won the top collegiate award for College Football, the Heisman Trophy. Winston became the youngest ever to win the trophy, being three weeks under 20 years old. The question many people are wondering is, "What happens next?" There's several options for Winston. After Florida State takes on the Auburn Tigers in the BCS National Championship game on Winston's birthday (January 6th), I feel like his future could go down two different paths.
When Winston and the steaming hot Seminoles roll into Pasadena, it's a matter of win or loss. Down path one, Winston wins the BCS Championship. With some of the top college football quarterbacks seemingly going to enter the draft in Texas A&M sophomore Johnny Manziel and Alabama senior AJ McCarron, what does he have to lose. He brings an ultimate package and could definitely be a top-ten pick. Having an ultimate arm and being able to run when needed brings a great presence to the NFL. He brings a running package like an Aaron Rodgers or a passing presence of a less-mobile Cam Newton. He could possibly go to a team like the Vikings.
After a heart-breaking loss in the BCS Championship game, Winston has decided to stay with the Seminoles for his sophomore season to up his stock in the NFL and improve his game. This doesn't seem unlikely even if they do win, because if he waits a season or even more he could easily become a number-one overall pick along with winning another Heisman trophy.
You may have to watch on YouTube.
If I had to make a case for one guy to make it big in the NFL, my choice would be Mr. Heisman, Jameis Winston.

Sidney was, and is, the product of a one-night-stand between Sanderson and Shelly, who are genderbents of eachother. She lives in the original universe with her father, whilst her twin brother, Simon, lives in the genderbent universe with his mother.
At the age of five or six, she began visiting her mother more often. They began to get incredibly close, because screw logic.
Sidney is allergic to mustard like her father and mother. She's also allergic to cat dander, but her parents don't have time 'fo dat, since they have cats. They'd rather keep their cats than Sidney.
She has a fear of Ocean Sunfish, since they're so big .
