Gather your besties and Bachy fanatics and head to The Boatbuilder's Yard in South Wharf this Sunday, March 25 for the premiere of Bachelor in Paradise.
Relocate from your couch to the tropical outdoor paradise at Boaties, where the frozen cocktails will be flowing, and the famous chocolate sundaes will be on high rotation.
Watch your Bachy faves on the huge outdoor screen, kick back in a deck chair and soak in the Sunday night vibes in the company of fellow Bachy fans.
How does 'Bachelor In Paradise' work?
Bachelor in Paradise is a spin-off series that brings together a bunch of former contestants from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, and puts them together in a resort at a tropical destination.
It borrows a few things from the standard Bachelor format, like rose ceremonies, but instead of one person giving out roses, there are several—but the numbers of men and women aren't even. For example, at the first rose ceremony, there may be six men and eight women, which means two women will get eliminated from the show.
Over the course of filming, more men and women will join, so the numbers of men and women will always be uneven, meaning there will always be people to eliminate.
By the end, there will be a few couples remaining, and they will decide whether they want to leave paradise as a couple, or go their separate ways.
In the US version, the finale goes straight to the 'where are they now' live episode, but it's unsure if the Aussie version will also do this.
So, it's basically like a big Bachelor and Bachelorette love fest, and everyone's in their swimmers the whole time. And there's so much room for drama.
Who Will You Be Tweeting About?
The full list of Australian contestants has been confirmed. They are: Ali Oetjen, Apollo Jackson, Blake Colman, Brett Moore, Davey Lloyd, Eden Schwencke, Florence Alexandra Sophia, Jake Ellis, Jarrod Woodgate, Keira Maguire, Laurina Fleure, Leah Costa, Lisa Hyde, Luke McLeod, Mack Reid, Michael Turnbull, Nina Rolleston and Tara Pavlovic. Megan Marx and Sam Cochrane may join later, as they have definitely been spotted in paparazzi photos.
Why would you stay at home when you can head to South Wharf and instead be sipping on frosé, frozen margas, elderflower spritzes, sangria, pine tinglers and the famous Boaties iced tea?
Come in and grab a bite (YOU HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE HALOUMI FRIES, HAVEN'T YOU?!?) or nibble on the charcuterie board of salami norcia, serrano ham, wagyu pastrami, grilled sourdough, guindilla peppers and pickled beetroot, or the incredible cheese platter of Milawa goat camembert, Shropshire blue, Pyengana clothbound cheddar, quince & rosewater jam, fig & fennel bread and apple.
Quell the sweet tooth with the Boaties sundae made with salted caramel, chocolate fudge, brownie bites and toffee popcorn.
Pop into Boaties every Monday night at 7.30pm to catch live screenings of Bachelor in Paradise, while chowing down on some haloumi fries and the famous Boatbuilder's sundae.
Entry is free, but get in early to reserve your deck chair.

New guidance issued by the EDPB on international transfers of personal data

On 18 November 2021, the European Data Protection Board ("EDPB") adopted new guidelines which:
Set out a three part criteria for identifying whether an action will be considered an international transfer of personal data; and
Clarify that restrictions on international data transfers do apply to transfers to entities located in a third country, but which are subject to the GDPR under its extraterritorial scope.
Businesses will welcome the clarity on which activities are considered international data transfers, particularly the EDPB's guidance on the use of EU personal data by employees travelling abroad, the direct collection of personal data from individuals located in the EU by foreign businesses and the transfers of non-EU personal data to and from EU based service providers (more details below). However, the guidance confirms that organisations may be required to implement additional tools to ensure that these transfers are adequately protected, even where the recipient is subject to the GDPR.
Restrictions on international data transfers
When personal data is transferred to third countries, the transfer must be carried out in accordance with Chapter V of the GDPR.
Chapter V sets out several tools that businesses can rely on when transferring data to third countries. One of them are the so-called adequacy decisions by the European Commission (Art. 45 GDPR), which approve specific countries as providing an adequate level of data protection. Transfers to third countries that have not received an adequacy decision can be based on "appropriate safeguards"(Art. 46 GDPR) for the protection of the personal data being transferred, including the Standard Contractual Clauses ("SCCs"). When one of these tools is used, it must also be assessed whether additional measures are needed to achieve an equivalent level of protection for the transferred personal data, following the Schrems II decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union and EDPB guidance following this decision (see here). In specific situations and under certain conditions, a derogation pursuant to Art. 49 GDPR may apply.
What is an international transfer of personal data?
In order to assist controllers and processors of personal data in the EU to identify when restrictions on international transfers will apply, the EDPB identified three cumulative criteria that if met, will qualify as a transfer:
A controller or a processor is subject to the GDPR for their processing of personal data.
This controller or processor (the "Exporter") discloses, transmits, or otherwise makes the relevant personal data available to another controller, joint controller or processor (the "Importer").
The Importer is in a third country, or is an international organisation (irrespective of whether or not the Importer is subject to the GDPR in accordance with Article 3 GDPR).
If the three criteria are met, the activity is considered a "transfer to a third country or to an international organisation" under the GDPR. Therefore, the parties need to comply with the conditions of Chapter V GDPR. These requirements must also be met by any sub-processors of personal data performing an international data transfer.
The guidance also provides clarity on further specific examples, notably that:
Where an employee of a company which is subject to the GDPR travels to a third country, and accesses personal data remotely on the employee's computer in that country, this is not considered an international transfer because the employee is seen as being an integral part of the company and not a separate controller.
Where a business in a third country collects data directly from data subjects within the EU (e.g., data subjects insert personal data into a website operated by a company based in a third country with no presence in the EU), this is not an international data transfer because there is no Exporter;
a data controller located in a third country instructs a data processor, who is subject to the GDPR because of their establishment in the EU, to process personal data on their behalf; and
the processor then re-sends the personal data to the controller,
This will be considered an international transfer of personal data, because the controller would be considered an Importer in a third country and the processor an Exporter.
The EDPB further noted that where a data flow is not considered a transfer under Chapter V, such processing can still be associated with risks, for which safeguards must be implemented by the controller or processor pursuant to Article 32 GDPR (obligation to implement technical and organizational measures taking into account, inter alia, the risks with respect to the processing), regardless of whether the processing takes place in the EU or not.
How does Article 3 of the GDPR affect international transfers?
This new guidance confirms that Chapter V GDPR requirements apply to transfers to entities who are located in a third country, but are subject to the GDPR because of its extraterritorial effect. For example, where a company processes the personal data of data subjects who are in the EU, and fulfils other criteria, as set out in Article 3(2).
In relation to such transfers, the EDPB stated that even though the importer is subject to the GDPR, a transfer tool is still needed, because the local law in the third country does not contain the other rules that exist on EU and Member State level aiming at the protection of personal data, as well as the EU Charter on fundamental rights and freedoms. As such, a different transfer tool should be used instead of those which are currently available, in order not to duplicate the GDPR obligations but instead focus on the elements and principles that are "missing" and fill the gaps relating to conflicting national laws and government access in the third country, as well as the difficulty to enforce and obtain redress against an entity outside the EU. The EDPB announced that it encourages and stands ready to cooperate in the development of a transfer tool, such as a new set of SCCs, to apply in this situation. It is currently unclear when such new tool will be adopted.

Is parking chargeable at hotel ???
Yes it is. They take your car away to a private car park and get it when you need it. The cost is 17€ per day. Alternatively you can park on the street and buy parking tickets for which there is a maximum charge a day of about €10 a day. They do explain it at the Hotel reception.
Why can husband and wife not sit in common area drinking own glass of wine before moved on to drink it in room?

Hugh Dalton
John Plowright examines the career of one of the key ministers in Attlee's postwar governments.
John Plowright | Published in History Review Issue 57 March 2007
Hugh Dalton was one of the dominant figures in the history of the Labour party and Chancellor the Exchequer, from July 1945 to November 1947, at a vital time. According to Ben Pimlott, he was the first truly socialist Chancellor, imposing redistributive taxation 'with a song in his heart'. In fact he revelled in the role of class traitor.
Few socialists have had as exclusive an experience of privilege as the young Hugh Dalton. His father was tutor and then 'governor' to the two sons of the future Edward VII – the Duke of Clarence and the future George V – before he was made a canon (and steward) of St George's Windsor. From this rarefied background the young Hugh proceeded to Eton and King's College Cambridge (with a closed Eton exhibition in mathematics).
At Cambridge he was emotionally attached to Rupert Brooke (with whom he joined the Fabian Society) and intellectually engaged by economics (to which he changed after a third in Part I of the Mathematical Tripos) through the teaching of Alfred Marshall and A. C. Pigou.
After a false start in the law he began a long association with the London School of Economics, although he was beaten to a lectureship there in 1913 by Clement Attlee. He secured a commission in the army in 1915 and served with the Army Service Corps in France and the artillery in Italy. Returning to the LSE after the war (where he held the Cassell Readership in Commerce from 1920 until 1935) he entered parliament on his fifth attempt, in November 1924, as Labour MP for Peckham in London. In the 1929-31 Labour government he served as Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs under Arthur Henderson.

End of Support for iOS 12.x
Posted on 2023-01-23 2023-01-27 by chiefpilot in News
Dear Crewmembers,
Since first releasing E6BJet, we have supported all versions of iOS beginning with iOS 12.4.
But the technology Apple provides to create the App has evolved in the last 3 years. Continuing to support older versions is beginning to limit us, as we then won't be able to use the newer features Apple has introduced since 2020.
Apple requires us to support the current version of iOS (now 16.2) as well as the 2 preceding ones (15.x and 14.x).
We are still evaluating whether also supporting iOS 13.x would conflict with our new features roadmap, with a final decision to come shortly after this year's Developer Conference (WWDC 2023).
However, regarding iOS 12.x, the bell has tolled. The next release of E6BJet will no longer support iOS 12.x.
It's not without a tinge of sadness that we are giving this up, as we know of quite a few users who are perfectly happy with older devices, and do not wish to discard them when they still work. For them, new releases of E6BJet will no longer be available, although they can of course continue to use the current version (2.50).
Thanks for your continued interest in E6BJet, and wishing you Happy Landings!
Here's to a healthy, happy and successful new year for everyone.
We're looking forward to publishing a new version of E6BJet with additional functions. We are aiming for this in the second quarter of this new year.
From the crew at e6bjet.com, cheers!
Release 2.5 now available, adds turn radius/diameter calculations
Dear Crew,
We are happy to announce the release of the latest version of E6BJet. It will become available during the course of today on the App Store.
You will now see, on the Speeds tab, turn radius (or diameter, or circumference), turn rate, and also load factor. These will be continuously updated as speed changes occur.
You can vary the bank angle to see the effect on turn radius and rate. You can also modify the turn rate and see the required bank angle to maintain the given rate. Turn radius can be displayed in Nautical miles, Kilometres, feet, metres or Statute miles.
We also got rid of some unexpected display clipping on iPads, which occurred at first launch until it was rotated to landscape mode.
There were other changes to the app, of the "under the hood" type, to prepare for the future addition of other navigation calculations that are useful, but impractical to do using slide rules. Stay tuned!
Thank you for your purchase and your feedback, and many happy landings ahead to all!
NOTAM – "E6BJet needs to be updated" error when launching the app.
Some of you have encountered a dialog box stating 'The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of iOS', when trying to launch E6BJet. This has been reported to occur on some iPads with iOS version 15.2.
If you encounter this dialog box, simply reinstall E6BJet from the App Store. To do so, using your iPhone or iPad, tap on the 'Available on App Store' button below, and when the E6BJet icon is displayed, tap the cloud download symbol next to it to re-download and install the app.
You can also launch Apple's App Store App, search for the app by its name, E6BJet, and then tap the cloud download symbol.
E6BJet in its current version (2.10) is designed to work with all versions of iOS starting with iOS 12.4, and tested with the latest version – as of today, 15.2.1 for iPhones and iPads. The cause of the error, which is intermittent, is mysterious at the moment, as there have been no recent updates to E6BJet. We are still working on new features, and hope to have a new version available by April 2022.
Cheers and as always happy landings!
Release 2.10 is live on the App Store
This version changes the thumbwheels/sliders, making them much more responsive. Otherwise there is no change to the functions already provided.
When turning a thumbwheel/dragging a slider slowly, reaction is more natural and more sensitive to even small changes in speed.
If the thumbwheels/sliders are flicked, response is now much faster, allowing you to get to a desired value quicker.
We hope you like this change. Do let us know your thoughts on it.
App Store Search
E6BJet can currently be purchased in all countries where the Apple App Store is available. It has come to our attention that in some places, searching for E6BJet by its name will not work. The search term will be substituted by something else, and the search results will list a number of Apps that have no relation to E6BJet, nor to the functions our App provides.
Apple are investigating this at the moment, and we certainly hope that a solution will be found that will cause E6BJet to appear in the search results when its full name is used.
Update (04 June): Search issue has been resolved.
If you are encountering difficulties finding E6BJet on the App Store, you can:
a) From your device, tap on the 'Download on the App Store' button below, or,
b) Use 'E6B' as a search term in the App Store app. E6BJet will then appear in the list of Apps that match this keyword.
Cheers and Happy Landings!
Release 2.0 brings sunrise/set and twilight calculations
We're happy to announce that we've just made our latest release (2.0) available on the App Store. It should become visible during the course of the day. For existing customers, the update will appear automatically in the App Store app.
It adds calculation of sunrise, sunset and civil twilight times for any geographic location on Earth (except directly at the North and South poles), for dates ranging from January 1, 1900 to December 31, 2999.
Locations can be given an identifier of up to 5 characters/digits, and stored for quick retrieval. A number of aerodrome locations, with coordinates from publicly-available sources, are already provided (one location per ICAO region and country, plus a few extra). You can edit these, and add your own.
All the details can be found here.
We also significantly expanded the offline help text (to view, tap the 'question mark' button on each tab), and fixed the pagination dots issue I mentioned in my previous post.
We used the last months to not only develop this new functionality, but to make under-the-hood changes to pave the way for more upcoming features. Very shortly (before the end of May) we are releasing another update that provides a significant improvement to how the thumbwheels respond to touch. We've been looking to fix that for quite some time, and are very pleased with the results in our tests.
There is more in the works. The app now has 5 feature tabs (Wind, Speeds, Altitudes, Fuel and Sunrise), and for the next major feature (and the sixth and subsequent tabs), we need to do some more behind-the-scenes preparations. On the way there, we'll continue to roll out improvements which you have suggested.
Thank you very much for your custom, and for your feedback, and as always happy landings!
NOTAM – Help displays missing pagination dots in iOS 14.0 and later.
Seems a gremlin has gotten into the help displays (which you can access by tapping the '?' button on the various tabs).
The Speeds, Altitudes and Fuel W/V help displays have two pages of text. To move from one page to the other, swipe left (or right). To dismiss the help display, tap the amber 'X' button that also shows.
Help displays with more than one page show pagination dots (also in amber) near the bottom of the tab on iOS 12.x and 13.x. However, starting with iOS 14.0, the dots have gone missing, although swiping left & right works just fine.
Thanks for pointing this out. A fix will be included with the upcoming release of version 2.0.
Please be sure to view the User Guide pages here on the website for details on all the functions, and of course keep your feedback coming!
Thank you, happy landings and cheers!
Release 1.5 available
We made improvements on the Wind tab.
Thanks to your suggestions, we made the following changes.
The time thumbwheel now works as one would expect.
Previously, when solving for groundspeed (and heading or track), the time thumbwheel would not update time values unless time was also "locked" for groundspeed changes. The same went for the distance thumbwheel.
The maximum limit for wind speed, 350 knots, is now consistently applied. When solving for wind (direction and speed), combinations of TAS and groundspeed are now limited to those which give a wind speed of 350 knots or less.
Previously it was possible to solve for wind and obtain results of more than 350 knots. But then switching to solve for any other values would prevent any inputs unless the wind speed was first reduced to 350 knots or less.
A note on thumbwheel behaviour.
Most values have hard limits. For example, TAS must be from 0 (or 1) to 2 500 knots, throughout E6BJet. If you attempt to turn the TAS thumbwheel to a value outside this range, it will stop rotating any further, as one would expect, and thereby provide a visual indication that the limit has been reached.
But if you are changing altitude, and doing so might cause the calculated TAS to exceed its limits, then the Altitude thumbwheel will continue to rotate – since the altitude limit has not been reached. But the altitude value will not change anymore, due to the limit on TAS.
In summary, if a thumbwheel can still be turned but its associated value no longer changes, it is because another, related value has reached its limit. If a thumbwheel doesn't turn anymore, its associated value is now at its limit.
For details, see Calculation limits in the User Guides section.
E6BJet and Apple Silicon Macs
As you know, Mac OS 11 Big Sur is being released today, bringing the ability to run iOS apps to the new Macs featuring Apple Silicon.
We have opted to make E6BJet available for Apple Silicon Macs in the Mac App Store.
E6BJet meets Apple's requirements for this, since it does not use any features of iOS that would prevent it from running correctly on a Mac. (The altimeter function will not be available, since the Macs do not have a built-in barometric sensor, the same as with some early iPhones/iPads.)
However, since we have not yet received our Apple Silicon Macs, we have not been able to test E6BJet on this new platform. Until this is done, per Apple requirements, it will be shown in the Mac App Store with the mention "Not verified for MacOS". As far as functionality is concerned, at this point we can only say that we are not expecting any problems.
For the future, we will keep E6BJet available for Macs, unless the user experience on Apple Silicon Macs becomes deeply unsatisfactory. Our roadmap already includes enhancements that will adopt Mac features for interacting with E6BJet, such as keyboard input.
Thank you for your continued feedback, and we look forward to hearing more from you, via
Happy landings!
Version 1.4 is available on the App Store
This update enlarges the size of the thumbwheels for magnetic variation, and for fuel density.
Previously these two thumbwheels were sometimes difficult to turn because of their small size.
Thank you for your feedback, and stay tuned for a larger update with useful new features.

Every year, during appraisal period, every employee waits for the feedback from their superiors – akin to school students who await their year-end results with crossed fingers hoping for a promotion to the next standard if the performance is good. As a manager, you may always find it tough to provide feedback to the team members and balance their expectations, manage their emotions, and maintain high levels of motivation. Let's discuss how you should approach towards providing feedback.
1. Prepare well: Don't be casual about the feedback discussion, get your facts in place, ensure that you have observed the behaviors well multiple times – even got it seconded by some colleagues – and you're not making premature judgement. Keep specific examples ready as you'd need them while discussing the feedback.
2. Schedule an exclusive time for the discussion: Make your team members feel important. Schedule an exclusive and communicate in advance. Block your and the subordinate's calendar and ensure that you stick to it. Keep distractions at bay and ensure that you don't take any calls during the meeting. It's a very important moment for the subordinate and you must respect it by making her feel that it's important for you too.
3. Provide timely feedback: Feedback is best given when it is given timely. Arrange to provide the feedback soon after you observe a behavior that needs correction – you need not wait till the appraisal discussion as the damage may be high till then. However, remember to gather complete information before you share the feedback. Also, if you're angry, hold on, calm down before you share your feedback.
4. Make it constructive: Feedback should focus on improving future performance and not to highlight poor performance. Conduct a "performance preview," not a "review." While it is important to bring to light what went wrong, it is equally important to mention what's went well and how things can be improved in future. If you think that nothing went well, check again.
5. Focus on real issues: it's not necessary to find something that went wrong. If your colleague's behavior or action was a one-time event that went wrong, consider letting it go. Focus on real issues that requires correcting or improving performance.
6. It's the issue, not the person: Highlight the action or the behavior that needs attention or improvement, avoid characterizing the person with such actions. If a subordinate has been coming late to work every day, focus on correcting action rather than calling that person lazy or irresponsible.
9. Provide facts rather than opinion: Try to suggest facts rather than opinions. For example, if you mention the information in the presentation are incorrect and then point out an error along with corrected information, it's a fact. But if you say, "I don't think your suggestion would work," that's an opinion. Opinions are important but do not carry the same weights as demonstrated facts.

'Warm clothes for poor': How a dedicated team of young Kashmir doctors help out people in bone-chilling winters
by Ishfaq-ul-Hassan
Nov. 29, 2021 Updated 03:50 pm. IST
SRINAGAR: When a group of doctors visited the interior city as a part of their field study, they were shell-shocked to see young kids and women without proper winter clothing shivering in the bone-chilling cold.
For days, the flashback of kids crying was playing in their minds. One fine day, doctors met on the campus and the idea of launching a social media campaign to urge people to donate winter clothes was born. The community medicine department of Government Medical College (GMC), Srinagar, became the nodal agency.
"The response has been good so far. We are receiving calls from numerous people who want to donate clothes. People can come and drop warm clothes at our department and we will hand them over to the deserving people," Prof Muhammad Salim Khan, head department of Community Medicine, GMC, told The Kashmir Monitor.
How do doctors identify the families?
A team of dedicated doctors is working overtime to identify the families and deliver winter clothing to their doorsteps. It can be pherans, sweaters, jackets, trousers, warm shirts, women's apparel, and any other winter wear. People can donate used or fresh clothes. Most people donate used clothes but in good condition.
"Our doctors have to conduct a field study as a part of their curriculum. During one of their study tours, they saw kids from poor families shivering in cold. They were moved by their plight and decided to do something. Later they came up with the idea of collecting warm clothing and delivering it to the deserving," said Prof Salim.
After receiving the clothing, doctors sit together and sort as per age group. Later the clothes are packed in the plastic bags. Only usable clothing is delivered. Torn and shabby clothing is avoided because it does not serve the purpose. Doctors visit different localities and deliver clothes at the doorsteps of the deserving people.
"Our doctors go to those areas which have a huge concentration of people living below the poverty line. They do not have the means to buy fresh winter clothing. It is costly and they cannot afford it. Our boys and girls identify the deserving and make a list of the people and the areas. Later the doctors visit these households and deliver the clothes," said Prof Salim.
Most of the doctors involved in the work have stayed away from the limelight. This is over and above their academic work which they have to submit at the end of the semester. "Most of them are students. They are doing it voluntarily," said Prof Salim.

THE BUZZ: On immigration in 2019, there's the California Course and the Washington Way.

Among the various duties of production officers at the workshops is that of checking the progress of the work on schedule in the various departments. The production officer makes a daily visit to each department, and from the leading hand or foreman he ascertains whether or not each item on the schedule is done. He asks for reasons if the job is not done, traces any material required and, where necessary, advises the general foreman or workshop manager of factors retarding the progress of the work so that the latter officers may give the question of remedy their personal attention.
The daily visits of inspection of the various jobs, in most cases the only part of the business which comes under the notice of the man on the shop floor, has caused many to be of the opinion that the production officer's task is a very simple one. But this impression is erroneous.
The question has been asked by workmen in the shops, "How can a clerical man check the progress of my work?" The idea being, of course, that it takes a tradesman to check up a tradesman's work. If the production officer's job was to check up individual men's work, that conclusion might be justified. It is the foreman's job, however, to check up the work done by everyone under his charge, he being the man from whom the production officer gets his information. In the first place the foreman of each shop is consulted in the drawing up of the schedules.
It is the schedule clerk's duty (in collaboration with the foreman), to prepare and issue schedules to suit each new job as it comes along. He does not have to be a clerk to do this, but he has to have analytical ability, in order that each job may be dissected into the component jobs that make up the whole. He has to ascertain from the foremen how long each job will take, and must chart out the plan so that each job will be done at the proper time. When any schedule contains features that have not before been encountered, the workshop manager is called in for consultation with the foremen and definite plans are devised to meet the situation.
Then, when the plan is made, the schedule clerk advises all foremen of their part and daily approaches them to see if it is done or not done with the one idea of avoiding delays to the plan.
Anyone acquainted with workshops knows, that owing to the complexity of the problem, the elimination of delays in the progress of work through the shops is a task of considerable magnitude, demanding the constant vigilance of the schedule clerk.
The production officer, on account of his knowledge of making plans and checking results, comes to know that certain things ought to be done, and could be done "on time." He knows the number of days that are lost because of little delays (such as the non-arrival of some detail part) which results in the failure of the men to meet the conditions of the schedule.
His position commands him to take action in connection with every delay. The workshop manager (to whom he is a specialist assistant) and the foremen look to him to take action and obviate delays. Can he do it? He can do a great deal if accurate information is given him. Incorrect information invariably causes delay.
In the foregoing I have dealt with one phase only of a production officer's job. I have not dealt at all with the stores, shipping, costs, output and recording side of his work. The position calls for qualifications of a high order and covers such a range of subjects that, were not the officer full of initiative, enthusiastic, and able to withstand disappointments, he would not make a success of his work.
I want all to understand and appreciate these production jobs because every man in the workshops has an interest in assisting to get the work out "on time." Let us all pull together and do our best work.

How does the eventing Elo work?
At EquiRatings headquarters, the initial idea to apply the esteemed Elo rating to eventing nearly brought tears to Diarm's and Sam's eyes. The first horse ranking system the sport has ever seen, based soundly on one of the most well-used ratings in today's major sports (we're talking the Premier League, NFL, NBA, and MLB).
Inspired by others who likewise adapted the Elo from a chess rating to a sports rating, we've developed the eventing Elo to objectively rate horses and offer the odds for our favourite head-to-head duels. Here's how the rating works for Eventing.
Main reasons for Elo
Elo ranking systems were first introduced to the world of chess in the 1960's and have since been expanded and adapted to cover numerous types of competition, from online gaming, to sports analysis, and even online dating. It is used to rank competitors based on inferred performance from their win/loss record in a series of head to head matchups. It's most commonly used where a game or sport doesn't have an inherent ranking of players' abilities (like say a handicap in golf), and where performance is more likely to be judged on their performance record against other known players.
One of the main reasons people use the Elo system is its simplicity. Every competitor starts with an initial rating. When they beat another competitor, their rating goes up (relative to the gap in the opponents' incoming ratings) and when they lose, their rating goes down. The formula is simple in that it has very few parameters, is easy to implement, and it's easy to understand the evolution of players' rankings.
While some might detract from the system for its simplicity, that it doesn't consider the margin of winning a matchup, or the individual phase scores, or when horses are only really competing as a warm up for their next event, we believe it is a more informative number for all of that. It ranks horses based on their consistent, all around performance, and only that. Looking at the rankings, either currently, or over the last 10 years, it does a pretty good job of it.
Why we wanted an Elo rating for eventing
At first look, it may seem that Elo isn't a natural fit for eventing. For starters, eventing isn't a comparative scoring sport like football, where players score points against each other. Rather, eventers score against judges for dressage marks and against courses in cross country and show jumping. Instead of breaking through the opposing team's defense to score a point, eventers are going up against a test and they out-do each other based on their test performance.
But, this eventing test varies. Eventing has different levels of competition that have different dressage tests, jumping difficulties and cross country time challenges. A clear cross country round at CCI2*-S doesn't equate to a clear round at CCI4*-L. On top of that, different tracks at the same level present different levels of challenges. Making the time at Burghley CCI5*-L is not the same achievement as making it at, say, Pau CCI5*-L.
Even dressage tests aren't immune to scoring variance. While it may be contentious to brand some events as being easier-scoring than others, just looking at variance between judges for the same tests showcases that there is some variance there.
These realities required us to adapt Elo for use in eventing. These realities are also the exact reason why we believe our sport needs it. Just judging horses on their scoring achievements doesn't show the full picture. Using Elo to summarize their scoring against each other is that extra layer of insight that helps us compare apples to apples.
What we did to adapt the Elo rating
So, having highlighted the case for introducing an Elo ranking system into eventing, how do we go about it? Eventing isn't a natural fit to the classic Elo sports (think the Premier League , the NFL, NBA, and MLB), so we had to make some adjustments to the basic Elo formula to make it work.
First off, we have the fact that eventing isn't a two-player sport. Elo ratings are calculated on the results of a two-player matchup. The usual way of adjusting Elo to fit a sport where we have a field competing against one another (a multiplayer game) is to break the field down into a round robin type format. Here each competitor in the field is paired off against every other competitor in what we will call a head-to-head matchup. If competitor A finished ahead of competitor B, then A is judged to have won that matchup, and receives a bump in Elo (while competitor B receives a corresponding drop in their Elo). We tally the Elo changes for every matchup for each competitor and use that as the total Elo adjustment (loss or gain) for that competitor from that competition.
The classic Elo formula uses only 3 parameters:
The incoming Elo scores for players in match
The head-to-head result from that match.
The K-factor: How responsive the Elo should be to the result of a matchup.
Two other variables are the initial rating for a new competitor (set to 300), and the width of the Elo divisor (set to 400). You may notice that we deviate from the standard initial Elo rating (usually 1200- 1500), but there is a strong reason for that. Performing in eventing isn't as reliable as say performing in chess where many match-ups can be predicted with a 99% accuracy. In international eventing, every horse can have an off day, and have rail or a refusal. The large points associated with those mistakes means that horses will have rounds where they are beaten by much lower ranked horses. As such, the Elo rate in eventing doesn't evolve to have the same breadth of scores as say chess or tennis, where the strongest players can be over 2000 points greater than the weakest players. This starting score is completely arbitrary in an Elo algorithm, it has no effect on how competitors end up comparing to one another and it solely affects the scale on which Elo scores are given. By starting at a score of 300, we are able to keep most Elo scores between 0 – 1000, which we believe is a simpler scale to use and comprehend.
The formula works as follows:
Competitor A is heads up against Competitor B. Competitor A has a ranking of Ra, and B has a ranking of Rb.
After competition, each competitor's ranking changes by the following amount:
Where S is the result of the match-up (1 for a win, 0 for a loss, 0.5 for a draw), and K is the K-factor, which determines how much a single result can impact a horse's overall rating. The higher the K-factor, the more the Elo is influenced by a horse's most recent results. The lower the K-factor, the more Elo is representative of longer periods of form.
In adapting the Elo for the sport of eventing, we only made adjustments to one of these factors, the K-factor. This is because there are a couple of scenarios that don't fit the classic form of Elo competitions, and a couple of adjustments to this K-factor help smooth out the Elo performance.
In adapting the Elo, we were always trying to improve its performance. This performance can be measured in many ways, like accuracy in predicting matchup winners, or loss functions that try to minimise extreme upsets when making predictions using Elo rankings.
We measured performance of the eventing Elo system by considering the Brier Skill Score. This function tries to minimise the error in matchup probability predictions made using the Elo function, and is a very common method of measuring Elo performance. Since most of our reporting on Elo will be around the top levels of eventing (4* and 5* competitions), we have adapted the Elo to gain maximum Brier Skill Score at those levels of competition (at the expense of global accuracy, which would be more weighted towards the 2- and 3-star levels, since they have the majority of international competitors).
Adapting for different competition sizes
When using the Elo for multiplayer sports (like eventing), it is common to divide the total Elo change, from all the head-to-head matchups, by the competition size. This is because all the head-to-head matchups arise from single performances by each of the competitors (each horse). Dividing them by competition size means the change in Elo is on a similar scale each time a horse competes, regardless of how many competitors they go against. If we didn't divide by competition size, then winning a competition of, say, 50 competitors, would be equivalent to winning 5 competitions in a row with 10 competitors of similar calibre. We would argue that winning the 5 competitions is a stronger result than just winning one large competition.
However, it isn't fair to say that competition size doesn't matter. Winning against a large field in eventing is considered a bigger achievement to winning amongst a smaller field. To adjust for this, we soften the competition divisor with larger competitions, such that winning a competition against 50 horses has about a 40% greater impact compared to winning a competition against 10 horses.
From this, we settled on a K-factor of 80 and a competition power divisor of 0.8. Since these factors have the largest influence on the Elo Brier Skill Score, the following adjustments were made using 80 and 0.8 as the set, base factors. While this method of finding optimum parameters would not be suitable for more sensitive analyses, the most rigid optimisation protocols are computationally demanding operations. For our purpose of rating and ranking, this method was appropriate and achievable.
Adapting for different competition levels
Another major consideration in eventing is competition level. In order to prevent horses that consistently win at the lower levels from getting inflated Elo scores, we dampened the influence of runs at those levels compared to runs at 4* and 5*. We used the same level groupings that are used by the FEI world ranking system, that is: 5*L; 4*L; 4*S and 3*L; 3*S and 2*L; 2*S; 1*S. The relative influence of these groupings is roughly on the scale of 5:4:3:2:1:0.5, which is very similar to the scale used for world ranking points.
The following graph shows Brier Skill Score against a parameter which sets the gap in importance between the levels of competition (the larger the parameter, the larger the importance gap).
Impact of cross country jumping
One of the assumptions of an Elo system is that a competitor's performance is logistically (or normally) distributed. This means they will perform reasonably close to their average performance level most of the time and on rarer occasions have a very strong or very weak performance. In eventing, however, the penalties associated with cross country jumping (XCJ) faults (or eliminations) are so large that incurring a single penalty causes even the strongest horse to fall way down the leaderboard and lose matchups against many lower-ranked horses. In eventing, no horse is immune to these XCJ faults. Indeed, it is difficult to class any horse as having more than a 95% chance of jumping clear around any course. When a horse has an XCJ fault, the change in Elo scores are too drastic, for both the horse itself and the low-ranked horses that happen to finish ahead of it. To soften the impact of XCJ faults in the Elo, we reduce the Elo change by 30% on any matchup that involves an XCJ fault.
Proven ability
The final adjustment we make is to reduce the K-factor for the stronger Elo horses, an adjustment that is quite common in Elo systems. The reasoning is that once a horse has achieved a level of performance, we are more confident about its ability. By reducing the K-factor for these horses we soften the importance a single competition has on their score, and make more gradual adjustments to their rankings. Also, since horses with these top Elo scores are more likely to be competing at 4* and 5* events, it allows them to have an off day or an easy round without having such a major impact on their score.
What about cross country time?
The Elo is purely data-driven and, in that, it doesn't try to mind-read and account for strategy. It takes cross country time penalties at face value. If a horse is rated low and we can all unanimously agree that his rider rarely pushes for time, the rating will appropriately reflect that. Who puts up the strongest results on a consistent basis? Period. That is what the Elo is measuring.
If a horse is withdrawn at any point before cross country, their Elo remains unchanged. If a horse is withdrawn after cross county (where cross country is the second phase), their Elo will go down. This is because withdrawing after cross country is very rarely voluntary; it is typically either injury related (most common) or performance related.
More than one performance
The Eventing Elo is the first of its kind in eventing. The EquiRatings High Performance Rating (HPR) is valuable too, rating horses based on their single best performance, but what the Elo does is rate horses over time, based on all their performances dating back to 2008. A horse's Elo will respond after every run – up or down (except for the withdrawal consideration we mentioned above). It's fascinating to see and compare upward trends over horses' careers. We're excited about the eventing Elo and what is can do to change the game.

Voice of America Reporter Harassed by Police Forces in Erbil
Contributing Reporter for VOA Kurdish, Ahmed Ghafur Hakim.
WASHINGTON, D.C. —
On Saturday, March 4, Ahmed Ghafur Hakim, a contributing reporter for the VOA Kurdish language service, was in his car accompanied by his brother and cameraman, when he saw a large gathering of people surrounded by security forces and police near Diwan Hotel and Sami Abdulrahman Park in the city of Erbil in the Iraqi Kurdistan region. Hakim came out of his car wearing his VOA credentials and tried to approach the gathering. Before he was able to do so, the Kurdish police stopped him, proceeded to confiscate his badge, his camera and his cell phone and took him and his brother to a nearby police station.
According to Hakim, he never received an explanation from the security officials as to why he was detained, although he kept asking and identifying himself as a Voice of America journalist. Hakim reported that he was kept at the detention center for eight hours, where he was verbally insulted, and was eventually released.
"I am appalled by the fact that this VOA journalist, who was only doing his job, was harassed by police forces in such a way," said VOA Director Amanda Bennett. "Despite troubling incidents such as this one, VOA will not be deterred from seeking out and sharing the truth."
VOA Kurdish reaches its audience on radio, television and the Internet. In addition to shortwave and AM, the programs air on FM affiliates in several cities in Iraq (Erbil, Sulaymaniyah, Kirkuk, Mosul, Baghdad, and Basra). VOA Kurdish also produces video reports that are streamed on its website. The service's audience consists of more than 30 million Kurds living in the Middle East and Eurasia and approximately one million Kurds living in Europe and North America. Audience research indicates that the broadcasts are popular among listeners in Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Turkey.

Truitt helps consolidate pear processing
Geraldine Warner // January 1, 2012
Peter Truitt said his company's decision was motivated by a desire to see consolidation of the industry to make it more prosperous for processors and growers.
The company is no longer processing pears, and its 50 growers will instead take their fruit to Northwest Packing Company (part of the Neil Jones Company) in Vancouver, Washington, starting with the 2012 crop, according to Peter Truitt, who runs the company with his brother David.
Truitt Brothers had hoped to acquire the business of Snokist Growers, Inc., in Yakima, Washington, which has gone through bankruptcy proceedings. Truitt made an offer to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of $42.5 million, which was built around satisfying the creditors as far as possible.
However, Truitt Brothers was unable to put together a financing package by the court's deadline. In early May, the court approved the sale of Snokist's assets to Del Monte Foods of San Francisco, California, and Pacific Coast Producers of Lodi, California, for $27.8 million. Pears were just part of Snokist's fruit canning business, along with apples, cherries, prunes, and peaches. The purchasers are not expected to keep the pear operation running, which means that Snokist's growers will be looking for other places to process their pears.
Twenty years ago, Washington and Oregon produced about 200,000 tons of Bartlett pears for processing. The volume has been gradually declining and has averaged between 120,000 and 130,000 tons in recent years. Meanwhile, cannery capacity has not changed. Snokist, which was the largest pear cannery in the country with a capacity of 60,000 tons, was only processing about half that tonnage.
For the 2011 season, Truitt Brothers had its growers' pears, as well as cherries, co-packed by Del Monte Foods in Washington, but the pears were still sold by Truitt Brothers under their own label. Truitt said it made more sense to can the pears in the region where most of them were grown and avoid the cost of transporting them to Oregon.
Had Truitt Brothers been successful in its bid, it would have processed Snokist's 30,000 tons of pears and its own 22,000 tons, bringing the Snokist plant almost up to capacity and reducing the per-unit costs, Truitt said.
"We felt that would be the ideal place for us to process our pears and, more importantly, to provide a platform for industry consolidation," he said. "We've been motivated from day one to help the industry achieve a consolidation that would enable the remaining processors in the industry to be prosperous."
Truitt Brothers and Snokist's exit from the canned pear business leaves just three remaining processors: Del Monte, Independent Foods in Yakima, and Northwest Packing. Truitt Brothers has no immediate plans for its vacant pear plant, though it could provide room for growth of canned bean production.
Truitt Brothers has been focused on helping its pear growers transition to Northwest Packing. In addition, its sales team will be working with Northwest on the marketing end for the next few months.
"Our intent is to bow out with dignity and decency and to try to facilitate the most seamless consolidation that we possibly can," Truitt said. "I think things are going to be chaotic over the next few months, but with this consolidation, things will definitely stabilize, and prosperity will return to the industry."

The training algorithm which uses IFCM clustering method to train the network gain better accuracy in predictions and reduced network architecture compared to the standard RBF networks. The proposed training algorithm was implemented with RBF networks in MATLAB, therefore the new network will undergo a hybrid learning process. The networks called improved Fuzzy C-means Clustering–Radial Basis Function Network (IFCM/RBF) was tested against the standard RBF network and the networks called standard Fuzzy C-means Clustering-RBF network (FCM/RBF) in predictions. The experimental models were tested on three real world application problems, particularly in Air pollutant problem, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) problem, and Phytoplankton problem, which yield promising results.

The FA is a meta-heuristic algorithm that has been successfully applied in many practical applications. However, the FA had a few disadvantages in global searching including slow convergence speed, high possibility of being trapped in local optimum and low solution accuracy. Therefore, this paper proposed an improved FA known as dual search firefly algorithm (DSFA), for solving the function optimization problems. The DSFA employed the characteristics of speedy local search approach with the global optimization of FA. The experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm has overall improved over 85% in performances compared to FA in terms of convergence speed and accuracy.KEYWORD: Function approximation, optimization, firefly algorithm, local optimum, prediction.
3 TITLE NAME : Community-led adaptation to Climate Change among coastal communities in Ghana: The case of Dansoman in the Greater Accra region.
It is key in determining which critical and actual areas stem communities, hence, employing bottom-up approach in realizing global goals of regulating climate change. The main aim of the study was to find out self-protective measures, initiated by the local assembly, private entities and individual households in the area. The study adapted both qualitative and quantitative research strategies in collection, analyzing and presentation of results. Response from informants constituting officials from various institutions and vulnerable groups in the area were subjected to descriptive analytical statistics based on informants' knowledge and experience in the area.Results show majority of adaptation measures, initiated by proponents in the area are short-term (reactive) measures and does not have the efficacy and capacity to deal with large scale climate events of bigger, magnitudes and intensity. The study serves as baseline-print on potential impacts of climate change in Dansoman along with community-led adaptation mechanisms. Further research could be conducted on cost of adaptation and effectiveness of initiated adaptation strategies in the area.KEYWORD: Community-Led, adaptation, vulnerability, Dansoman, Accra, SDG 13, self-protective, Ablekuma-West, potential impacts, reactive, anticipatory.
Abstract : Throughout history, different approaches dealing with the concept of beauty have been made and various aesthetic currents have occurred to analyze its manifestations. Some of these currents have defended the possibility of finding beauty in imperfection, both because of its connection with truth, and because of the uniqueness contained within these imperfect realities.
Jane Austen criticized the exaggerated perfection of the characters of some of the works of her time, since, from her point of view, these types of characters reduced the credibility of the story bringing about a rejection from the reader. For this reason, in all of Austen's novels, the defects of the protagonists can be readily appreciated. This is even more evident in Emma, since in this work, the heroine is an evidently imperfect young woman.In the present article, we will analyze the way in which Austen designed the character of Emma Woodhouse, the strategies that she used to maintain the balance in reader's perception and the result of this creative work.KEYWORD: Literary analysis, regency, beauty of imperfection, characters analysis.

The purpose of this paper is therefore to design and size a unit that will collect the vapours and regenerate them. To achieve this objective, the methodology adopted begins with the functional analysis of the vapour recovery unit. It has enabled a solution consisting in the aspiration of vapours from the loading stations using vacuum pumps and a piping system. The regeneration of these vapours by condensation with a refrigeration system and the dissociation by a liquid gas separator. The second stage consist of the sizing and the choice of the different components of the unit. This part allowed us to have a vacuum pump (Becker U 5.70 with 1.5 kW of power and 70 of maximum suction flow), and a tube NPS 4 SCH 80 API 5 L grade B (100 mm nominal diameter and 2.11 mm thick). A refrigeration system of 19.250 kW of power and a liquid gas separator VIRON VVS-14K60L46. The unit thus designed will allow the recovery of at least 0.15% of product stored per year.KEYWORD: Design, Gas-liquid Separator, Loading Station, Recovery unit, Sizing.
8 TITLE NAME : REDUCING AUDIT EXPECTATION GAP? THE ADOPTION OF INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS ON AUDITING (ISA 700) IN NIGERIA.
This paper reviews previous literature on AEG and adoption of ISA 700 in the context of globalization of financial reporting practices. The paper concludes that ISA 700 increases the understanding of users of financial statements with regards to the function of an audit and the responsibility of auditor and management. The review also indicated that ISA 700 has a significant influence in reducing the AEG in Nigeria. It is expected that the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria (FRCN) and the Institutes of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) as the regulatory bodies will provide adequate measures for policy deliberations on the adoption of ISA 700 in auditing reporting with a likelihood of success in reducing the AEG problems in Nigeria.

The study focuses on some of the evil practices against the freedom of women with regard to marriage and childbearing which have continued to persist in the African societies. The social context of marriage and the meaning attached to birthing constitute a good starting point for appreciating the image of women in the Igbo society. Thus, Nwapa's commitment in One is Enough relates not only to the writer's awareness of the women's problems but also and mainly the commitment of the writer in voicing the problems of women and all women's attainment of self-liberation and social transformation. This could, genuinely, be attributed to the fact that the social conditions under which the writer produces her work is patriarchal in nature. As a result, Nwapa, by virtue of gender experience as well as by her desire to transform these experiences into weapons of change, is committed to react to socio cultural norms that discriminate women.KEYWORD: Flora Nwapa, Commitment, Marriage, Childbearing.

11 TITLE NAME :DISEASES CURE BY USING DIFFERENT KIND OF MEDICINES – A CASE STUDY OF WEAVERS COMMUNITY.
The World Health Organization at its 1978 international conference held in the Soviet Union produced the Alma-Ata Health Declaration, which was designed to serve governments as a basis for planning health care that would reach people at all levels of society. The declaration reaffirmed that health, which is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, is a fundamental human right and that the attainment of the highest possible level of health is a most important world-wide social goal whose realization requires the action of many other social and economic sectors in addition to the health sector..
