False Nostalgia: The Original Fallujah Campaign Destabilized Iraq
Juan Cole 01/14/2014
(By Juan Cole)
We've been treated to a rash of articles about how US veterans of the Fallujah campaigns of 2004 are upset about the return of al-Qaeda to that city and the now dominant position of the extremists. Despite my respect for US soldiers who risked their lives, these veterans are making a political argument and I have to point out that it misunderstands what really happened in 2004.
It was being alleged at the time that Fallujah had become the center of the network of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who affiliated with al-Qaeda. It was being alleged by US generals that 80% of attacks in Iraq were being carried out by Zarqawi. All of these notions were nonsense. After Fallujah was reduced in late 2004, the Sunni insurgency did not skip a beat, and bombings in Baghdad continued. Likewise when Zarqawi himself was killed in 2006, violence did not subside; if anything, that year it got worse. There were 50 major insurgent cells in the Sunni Arab region, and Fallujah was only one site out of many for them.
George W. Bush was alleged by US reporters to have had a grudge against Fallujah because 4 contractors were brutally killed there by a mob in spring of 2004. "Heads must roll," he said according to one reporter.
In November of 2004, Bush ordered the invasion of Fallujah. It was a brutal invasion that left much of the city in rubble, something Bush administration flacks attempted to cover up at the time.
But was was important was the outcome of the campaign. It was opposed by the Sunni Arabs of center-north Iraq in general. As it proceeded, more and more of them demonstrated against American rule. Many Sunni Arabs in that era were on the fence and undecided about the US. The Fallujah campaign convinced them that their darkest suspicions of Washington were entirely justified.
As a result, the whole Sunni Arab area cut off ties with the US. In Mosul, Gen. David Petraeus had established good relations with the local elite of Iraq's 3rd city, which is about the size of Houston. Some 4,000 Mosulis, mainly Sunni Arabs but with some Kurds, had joined a new police force there.
After the Fallujah campaign, all 4000 resigned. Some showed back up in ski masks manning checkpoints for the insurgency.
In Ramadi, Khalediya, Samarra and other Sunni Arab-majority cities, local elites broke with the Americans and their young men joined the guerrillas.
Fallujah for the Sunni Arabs of Iraq was an Alamo, a symbol around which to rally, and a generator of hatred for the foreigners.
Then the Sunni Arab elites announced that they would boycott the parliamentary elections scheduled for the end of January, 2005. Paul Bremer, the American viceroy of Iraq and the UN team had set up a proportional system for the elections that was nationwide. Thus, if throughout the country a party got 10 percent of the vote, they'd get 10% of the seats in parliament. This system is more like a US presidential election than like a congressional one. There were no districts.
That was a problem. With district-based elections, even if there is low turnout, somebody will win and the district will be represented. But in the American-sponsored first Iraqi parliamentary election, it was possible that a group might have no representatives at all if they did not come out to vote.
I was very alarmed by the Fallujah campaign and the alienation of the Sunni Arabs from the voting process. I wrote an op-ed for the Detroit News late in 2004 in which I argued that there should be a one-time set-aside of seats for the Sunnis, in case they ended up not being represented in the legislature.
And here was another problem: Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani had imposed on the Bush administration the principle that the Iraqi constitution would be drafted by elected representatives of the iraqi people. That parliament was also a constituent assembly.
If the Sunni Arabs boycotted the vote and ended up poorly represented in parliament, they would have very little say on the shape of the constitution.
In turn, their lack of input into the constitution might cause them to reject it. A constitution is fundamental to a country. If any large number of persons rejects it, that is a recipe for civil war.
No one paid attention to my op-ed. Iraq held its January 2005 elections. The Sunnis largely boycotted.
The Sunni Arabs ended up with only 17 seats out of 275, and 3 of those were on the Shiite list cobbled together by Sistani.
The Sunni Arabs played very little role in crafting the constitution. In mid-October of 2005, when the referendum was held on the constitution, all three Sunni-majority provinces rejected it.
In 2006, a few months later, a civil war broke out between Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq. Part of the impetus was the Sunni rejection of what they saw as the Shiite constitution. Some 2500 people were showing up dead every month by that summer. Sunnis were massively ethnically cleansed from Baghdad.
So that was the actual impact of the Fallujah campaign. It pushed the Sunni Arabs off the fence and most of them became anti-American. Thousands of police resigned from their government positions. Entire cities became sullen and rejectionist.
So, the American Fallujah campaign did not save Iraq and nor did it create a path toward democracy in Iraq. To the extent that it angered the Sunni Arabs and alienated them from the American-sponsored political process, it was highly negative. There is a sense in which it led to the civil war of 2006-2007.
The people of Fallujah do not believe that they owe something to the Americans. Even the ones who later allied with the US, in the Awakening Councils, think the US forsook them after 2008. The Fallujah campaign epitomized the hubris of American rule under Bush. It was another step in the downward spiral of Iraq into chaos.

Q: os.platform() Not Working Correctly In Website I'm using the built-in 'os.platform()' function in Node.js to get the home directory of a user when they sign in to a website so they can import files. In order to specify which path to look for those files in, I need to know the OS of the user's PC. When I run the code in my local server, it runs fine, returning "win32". However, when I deploy the website, it always reads "linux", which I can only assume is the operating system of the server. How can I make sure that "os.platform()" returns the client's OS and nothing else?
I should also mention that I am running this code with a console.log(os.platform()) in getInitialProps(). I've tried using navigator, window, and process.env.HOME but none of those have worked for me, as they always return undefined inside of getInitialProps().

Through fundamental contributions from leading researchers, this volume describes the use of formal modeling methods in the areas of requirements, design and validation. The self-contained chapters provide readers with rich background information and a diverse breadth of specialist material.
This book presents the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2006, held in Hamilton, Canada, August 2006. The book presents 36 revised full papers together with 2 invited contributions and extended abstracts of 7 invited industrial presentations, organized in topical sections on interactive verification, formal modelling of systems, real time, industrial experience, specification and refinement, programming languages, algebra, formal modelling of systems, and more.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Formal Engineering methods, ICFEM 2002, held in Shanghai, China, in October 2002. The 43 revised full papers and 16 revised short papers presented together with 5 invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 108 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on component engineering and software architecture, method integration, specification techniques and languages, tools and environments, refinement, applications, validation and verification, UML, and semantics.
th FM 2009, the 16 International Symposium on Formal Methods, marked the 10th an- versary of the First World Congress on Formal Methods that was held in 1999 in Toulouse, France. We wished to celebrate this by advertising and organizing FM 2009 as the Second World Congress in the FM series, aiming to once again bring together the formal methods communities from all over the world. The statistics displayed in the table on the next page include the number of countries represented by the Programme Committee members, as well as of the authors of submitted and accepted papers. Novel this year was a special track on tools and industrial applications. Subm- sions of papers on these topics were especially encouraged, but not given any special treatment. (It was just as hard to get a special track paper accepted as any other paper.) What we did promote, however, was a discussion of how originality, contri- tion, and soundness should be judged for these papers. The following questions were used by our Programme Committee.
CSP notation has been used extensively for teaching and applying concurrency theory, ever since the publication of the text Communicating Sequential Processes by C.A.R. Hoare in 1985. Both a programming language and a specification language, the theory of CSP helps users to understand concurrent systems, and to decide whether a program meets its specification. As a member of the family of process algebras, the concepts of communication and interaction are presented in an algebraic style. An invaluable reference on the state of the art in CSP, Understanding Concurrent Systems also serves as a comprehensive introduction to the field, in addition to providing material for a number of more advanced courses. A first point of reference for anyone wanting to use CSP or learn about its theory, the book also introduces other views of concurrency, using CSP to model and explain these. The text is fully integrated with CSP-based tools such as FDR, and describes how to create new tools based on FDR. Most of the book relies on no theoretical background other than a basic knowledge of sets and sequences. Sophisticated mathematical arguments are avoided whenever possible. Topics and features: presents a comprehensive introduction to CSP; discusses the latest advances in CSP, covering topics of operational semantics, denotational models, finite observation models and infinite-behaviour models, and algebraic semantics; explores the practical application of CSP, including timed modelling, discrete modelling, parameterised verifications and the state explosion problem, and advanced topics in the use of FDR; examines the ability of CSP to describe and enable reasoning about parallel systems modelled in other paradigms; covers a broad variety of concurrent systems, including combinatorial, timed, priority-based, mobile, shared variable, statecharts, buffered and asynchronous systems; contains exercises and case studies to support the text; supplies further tools and information at the associated website: http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/ucs/. From undergraduate students of computer science in need of an introduction to the area, to researchers and practitioners desiring a more in-depth understanding of theory and practice of concurrent systems, this broad-ranging text/reference is essential reading for anyone interested in Hoare's CSP.

Bush administration to propose biggest increase in truck CAFE in nearly two decades
WASHINGTON -- The Bush administration will make official on Friday its plan to require the biggest increases in light truck fuel economy in nearly two decades.
Under the proposal, the light truck fuel economy standard would rise 0.3 mpg in the 2005 model year. It would go up another 0.6 mpg in both 2006 and 2007.
The cumulative effect of the hikes would be to raise the standard from 20.7 mpg to 22.2 mpg over three model years for pickups, vans and sport-utilities up to 6,000 pounds, gross vehicle weight.
The last comparable rise was from 19.5 to 20.5 mpg between 1985 and 1987. The 20.7 standard has been in effect since 1996.
"The fact is, this really is going to be a challenge for the industry to meet in the near term," said Dr. Jeffrey Runge. He is administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agency charged with enforcing the corporate average fuel economy program.
Environmental groups, on the other hand, reacting to published reports about the administration plan, have said it is far too weak, requiring even less than what some automakers have already promised to do on their own.
But industry officials say raising light truck fuel economy even by 0.1 mpg is difficult because consumers keep demanding powerful, safe vehicles with ample hauling and towing capacity.
NHTSA expects automakers to be able to meet the tougher standards by making greater use of available fuel-saving technology - not by downsizing vehicles. So, the proposal will not cause vehicles to be less safe, Runge said.
NHTSA calculated that the changes will add $47 to the cost of each light truck by 2007. But the benefits to consumers, for reduced fuel consumption, and to society, for environmental protection and less reliance on imported oil, are estimated to be worth $100 per vehicle.
The administration does not propose a change in the car standard of 27.5 mpg, but Runge said NHTSA will consider raising the car standard after the 2007 model year. He also said the agency will propose additional, and possibly "creative" changes in the truck standard for the period beyond 2007.
NHTSA had too little information at this point to go beyond the 2005-07 period, Runge explained.
As it is, time is tight.
The proposal is to be published in the Federal Register Friday, Dec. 13. NHTSA will accept comments from interested parties for 60 days, or until mid-February. A final rule must be adopted by April 1, 2003, in order for it to take effect in the 2005 model year.

Q: Activemq broker hangs with hikariCP and autocommit set to false I have an embedded ActiveMQ in my app which needs a DS. I was using Tomcat CP (for several years) and am trying to switch to Hikari. The startAsynch flag for the MQ broker is set to false.
While configuring Hikari, if i set autoCommit to false, the ActiveMQ broker hangs during startup.
However if i set autocommit to True, then there is no issue, and the broker comes up just fine.
On the other hand if i start ActiveMQ with the startAsynch flag to true, the broker comes up with no issues, even though autoCommit in Hikari is set to false.
Here is an interesting titbit - it appears with tomcat CP, the autocommit uses whatever the underlying driver uses - in my case its the oracle driver and it appears the default for the oracle driver is autoCommit is set to true.
ActiveMQ version is 5.16.0 and Hikari is 3.4.5
HikariCP Config is:
<bean id="dataSourceForBroker" class="com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource" destroy-method="close">
    <property name="driverClassName" value="${driverClassName}"/>
    <property name="jdbcUrl" value="${url}"/>
    <property name="username" value="${dbusername}"/>
    <property name="password" value="${password}"/>
    <property name="maximumPoolSize" value="${dbSessionMaxActive}" />
    <property name="autoCommit" value="false"/>
    <property name="minimumIdle" value="10" />
    <property name="maxLifetime" value="30000" />
    <property name="connectionTimeout" value="60000" />
</bean>

Snippet that creates the broker is
public void ccreateBroker(){
    BrokerService broker = new BrokerService();
    broker.setBrokerId("myBroker");
    broker.setBrokerName("myBroker");
    broker.setPersistent(true);
    broker.setUseJmx(true);
    broker.setUseShutdownHook(true);
    broker.setStartAsync(false);
    broker.requestRestart();
    broker.getManagementContext().setConnectorPort(9999);
    broker.addShutdownHook(() -> {
        brokerStarted = false;
        logger.info("Active MQ broker was shutdown");
    });

    ManagementContext managementContext = new ManagementContext();
    managementContext.setCreateConnector(false);
    broker.setManagementContext(managementContext);

    JDBCPersistenceAdapter jdbcPersistenceAdapter = new JDBCPersistenceAdapter();
    jdbcPersistenceAdapter.setDataSource(dataSource);
    LeaseDatabaseLocker leaseDatabaseLocker = new LeaseDatabaseLocker();
    try {
        broker.setPersistenceAdapter(jdbcPersistenceAdapter);
        jdbcPersistenceAdapter.setLockKeepAlivePeriod(5000);
        leaseDatabaseLocker.setLockAcquireSleepInterval(10000);
        jdbcPersistenceAdapter.setLocker(leaseDatabaseLocker);
        broker.addConnector("vm://hexgenBroker");
        broker.start();
        brokerStarted = true;
    } catch (Exception e) {
        throw new RuntimeException("Broker failed -", e);
    }
}

Any pointers on why this happeinng? I am a bit lost here
thanks in advance

GoldmanSachs666 Comment of the Day - "HOLY BAILOUT"
Holy Bailout Batman. Financial napalm brings us this one for today as he refers and links us to an article published in Daily Bail. Thank you.
HOLY BAILOUT - Federal Reserve Now Backstopping $75 Trillion Of Bank Of America's Derivatives Trades (Title of Daily Bail Post)
This means that the investment bank's European derivatives exposure is now
backstopped by U.S. taxpayers. Bank of America didn't get regulatory
approval to do this, they just did it at the request of frightened
counterparties. Now the Fed and the FDIC are fighting as to whether
this was sound. The Fed wants to "give relief" to the bank holding
company, which is under heavy pressure.
This is a direct transfer of risk to the taxpayer done by the bank without approval by regulators
and without public input. You will also read below that JP Morgan is
apparently doing the same thing with $79 trillion of notional
derivatives guaranteed by the FDIC and Federal Reserve.
For the Full Story in DailyBail.com...click here
To which I replied:
HOLY MOTHER OF BAILOUTS, Financial Napalm!
I have believed for the better part of 3 years that Bank of America has been insolvent. They have stayed in business by the grace of our Feds (government and privately owned Fed Reserve) by virtue of "creative" bookkeeping (phony books).
If what you and DailyBail say is true (I have no reason to believe it is not) this is just another example of illegal activity for the betterment of the institution not the people.
The Derivatives business was no more then a "crap shoot" with better odds at the craps table of any casino in the world.
Banks were double and triple dipping when they created the entire slew of MBS's, CDO's CDS's - all those exotic sounding products - which were in reality fraudulent.
As to JP Morgan, I also believe that they are or will do the same. You see, most of the TBTF banks(ters) created the products, sold their products and even bought their products using the temporary - pre bubble - appreciation to meet their capital requirements. SMOKE!
Now I say, "LET THEM FAIL".
There is no shortage of local and regional banks, credit unions and S &L's that will take our money and give us a checking account so that we can pay our bills - which is what most Americans use a bank for. Why, with the influx of all of that additional cash, they might even do something very unusual - like making loans.
As a supporter of Occupy Wall Street - I say,
LET THEM FAIL
The DailyBail took its information from a Bloomberg story which can be found at the DailyBail.com
You can read the entire Bloomberg story, BofA Said to Split Regulators Over Moving Merrill Derivatives to Bank Unit...click here
Bank of America Corp. (BAC), hit by a credit downgrade last month, has moved derivatives from its Merrill Lynch unit to a subsidiary flush with insured deposits, according to people with direct knowledge of the situation.
The Federal Reserve and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. disagree over the transfers, which are being requested by counterparties, said the people, who asked to remain anonymous because they weren't authorized to speak publicly. The Fed has signaled that it favors moving the derivatives to give relief to the bank holding company, while the FDIC, which would have to pay off depositors in the event of a bank failure, is objecting, said the people. The bank doesn't believe regulatory approval is needed, said people with knowledge of its position.
...Bank of America, which got a $45 billion bailout during the financial crisis, had $1.04 trillion in deposits as of midyear, ranking it second among U.S. firms. (emphasis added)
There is much more to this story. BofA, I believe, is attempting to pass off their losses and those of some of their clients by using "our" money from the FDIC fund. Another very shady transaction if allowed by "our" government regulators. The FED seems to be in favor but of course. They will merely print more money which in turn earns more interest whihc goes to "the owners" of this private corporation.
The FDIC, it appears is publicly going along with the FED but privately arguing against it. Both The FED and the FDIC seem to not want to comment. I can understand the FED not commenting, they are a private company but the FDIC answers to the public and MUST comment and make its real position known.
This is not a matter of national security, it is a matter of misuse of taxpayer money. Wrongful by any stretch of the imagination and un Constitutional as well.
Here are subheadings for the article.
Accommodating Clients
Moody's Downgrade
'Be Prepared'
Dodd-Frank Rules
'The Normal Course'
'Created a Firewall'
One final comment. "Screw the people, feed the greed"
How did Bank of America buy Merrill Lynch at a time when they were saying they were broke? How does a broke company buy another broke company and become profitable?
Answer: With the taxpayers money and the government actually cutting the deal. That deal was orchestrated by then Treasury Secretary, Hank Paulson and current U.S. Secretary - then President of the NY Federal Reserve Bank - Tim Geithner. Hmmmm? How the wheels of fortune revolve around one and only one goal - screw the people, feed the greed.

Most of us are familiar with past lives—as humans. But what about previous lives on other planets or in other dimensions? In this interview, psychologist Dr. Linda Backman shares her fascinating work with "interplanetary souls" and identifies the unique characteristics and special challenges that these souls face.


Shortly after Robert Kelly's children interrupted his live BBC interview, Kelly tweeted, "Is this the kinda thing that goes 'viral' and gets weird?'" It has indeed gone viral, Professor Kelly. In fact, several parodies of the video have emerged.
The spoof by New Zealand comedy show "Jono and Ben" asks the question: "How would a mom have handled the situation?" In the spoof, a woman is being interviewed about the political crisis in South Korea when her daughter marches into the room. Not at all phased, the woman scoops her up and gives her a bottle. When the baby enters, she quickly gives him a toy. The professor continues on with the interview, never missing a beat, all the while cleaning a toilet, cooking a chicken, steam-cleaning a shirt, helping her husband find a sock and DEFUSING A BOMB.
In just 36 hours this video went viral, too, having been viewed more than 20 million times and already inspiring some controversy. What do YOU think of the parody?

I know, right?! Welcome to 30Seconds, Erin Musto !
This is hilarious! I couldn't stop LOL during the original video, and same with this one. Could relate to both, which is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing, Ann Marie Gardinier Halstead !
Loved it! I know so many women who multi-task at DEFCON 1 daily with such ease. Kudos also to Mrs. Kelly for saving the day after her hubs failed to lock the office door!.
Yes! I can't help but wonder what would have happened if she hadn't walked in when she did!
The husband looking for his sock!!! Priceless! I am always telling the guys in my house to stop looking for things with their "man eyes"!
I seriously could watch this series of videos all day long!
YES, Heather Frey ! Sometimes my To Do list frightens me! ha!

Detroit Lions training camp: Marvin Jones back to work for first day of pads
Jones went down Saturday, but bounced back Sunday
ALLEN PARK >> First piece of business at Detroit Lions training camp on Sunday morning, was looking to see if Marvin Jones was on the field. Indeed he was.
Jones got tangled with a teammate in Saturday's session and went to the ground. He walked it off, but sat out the second half of that practice.
Prior to practice, coach Matt Patricia said Jones was fine but would not elaborate or even say if he would be working.
"This was the first day of pads, obviously I was going to be out there,'' Jones said.
It wasn't scary when he went down — at least in his mind. Lions fans were holding their collective breath.
Five thoughts from Jones after the first three days of training camp:
1. A key theme under Matt Patricia is to play physical. Jones said that's the way they played last year too. "Every team wants to and has to be physical in order to dominate so all we can do is keep working on that and this was the first day (in pads),'' Jones said.
2. Jones and Golden Tate have put up consistent numbers the past three seasons. Last season they each surpassed 1,000 receiving yards. So far they've looked strong in camp. "Any player in the League they want to be consistent and kind of stay on top for the length of their careers. That's what everybody strives for is to be consistent,'' Jones said. "We have a good time doing it. We're out here working. Last year didn't really matter but we want to keep it consistent and keep making plays.''
3. Jones and Tate are 1A and 1B on the depth chart and it doesn't appear like that will change under Patricia. They cheer each other on. "I just get excited to watch (Tate) play that's how we all are,'' Jones said. In 2017 Jones had 61 catches for 1,101 yards and nine touchdowns while Tate had 92 catches for 1,003 yards and five touchdowns.
4. Since the run game stunk last season, a real emphasis has been placed on it in training camp. That's all good with Jones. "It starts up front, you want to run and that's going to to open up everything and vice versa. We're out here just working and being a better team,'' Jones said.
5. Jones, who is entering his seventh NFL season, takes his role as a mentor seriously. Second-year wide receiver Kenny Golladay has said how much he depends on Jones when he has questions. It's not just young wide receivers that Jones can help. "Anything I can do even with the defensive backs, we all coach each other up. I spend time coaching the young DBs and the your wide receivers as well because we're all a team,'' Jones said.

There has been enormous progress in embedding the use of analytics at lower levels of companies. But according to Thomas H. Davenport, professor at Babson College and one of the best-known thinkers about analytics and business intelligence, the upper levels of companies haven't kept up.
That's changing. Some companies have gotten aggressive about analytics and become case studies for the smart use of analytics in their strategy: Progressive, Capital One, Harrah's Entertainment, Google, UPS. But for most companies, the potential for analytics to become a critical tie to decision making remains an untapped opportunity.
What challenges lie in the way of analytics being embraced by more executives for decision making?
Most companies still distinguish between transactional information systems and decision-oriented systems, although that distinction is breaking down.
The technical challenges of having analytics managers help executives in decision making pales compared to the cultural and political challenges.
Companies don't yet embrace the science of collaboration and don't yet view collaboration as a mission-critical activity to be measured and optimized.
Davenport, who holds the President's Chair in Information Technology and Management at Babson College, says the link between analytics and decision making needs to be relearned: "What I've seen a lot with the proliferation of data and data warehouses and business intelligence systems is that the tie to actual decision making has been lost. We generate a lot of data, we supply a lot of tools and we say to people, 'Okay, go at it, have fun, play, make better decisions.' But we never actually ensure that they do."

5 Comments On: Are You Ready to Reengineer Your Decision Making?
Excellent insights. We at Forrester Research indeed see the same trend, where more advanced enterprises are venturing into combining reporting and analytics with decision management. In my point of view this breaks down into at least two categories: automated (machine) vs. non automated (human) decisions, and decisions that involve structured (rules and workflows) and unstructured (collaboration) processes. Unfortunately current best practices and technologies to address these four distinct, but closely related requirements, come from different vendors, technologies and experts. The authors of the article are also correct in pointing out that a full loopback mechanism which measures decision outcomes is critical. Watch for upcoming Forrester research on this very important, but largely unaddressed (by analytics software and services vendors) topic. I am also glad the authors pointed out a huge (often the key one) challenge, that I know my clients face every day, which is how does one convince a non-analytically oriented CEO that analytics and decision management are vital to enterprise success. One reason for such challenge, is that unlike any other enterprise application or a process, analytics and decision management are very hard (but possible) to build a business case around, with a concrete, tangible ROI. One way that we suggest our clients break through this executive logjam is with education on the benefits of analytics and decision management, often using competitive benchmarks. And guess what, analytics on analytics – or understanding when, who, and how analytics are used in an enterprise, and potentially correlating usage of analytics to decisions, good or bad – is also one of the emerging best practices.
Well congratulations on your new newsletter — 'The New Intelligent Enterprise' — appropriate topic and interview with Tom Davenport– and Boris — boy it's a small world these days.
I couldn't agree more on the need to re-engineer decision making — we've gone so far as to say that evidence is overwhelming that many organizations need to re-engineer their enterprise structure (enter 'Structurally Engineered Enterprise'– with 'integrity hard-wired' across the enterprise), particularly given that the vast majority of knowledge work is now digitized and stored.
Suppose there is a direct correlation between those org cultures that don't perceive a need to use (and improve) decision tools– and those involved with systemic crises? Amazing that.
BTW, several months ago we started a series with a similar name, but much different format — 'Semantic Scenarios for the Intelligent Enterprise'. In story telling format, very light on marcom and heavy on education — we've been rather stunned at times frankly at the lack of understanding (and misunderstanding) at the highest levels surrounding this topic in many large organizations.
In our series– after discovering that intelligence agencies and nuclear power plant operators (many leading universities, Pentagon, and WH among others) were visiting the site for the counter intelligence use case, but apparently afraid to register for access, we felt compelled to make freely available on the web.
Based on the interest levels we see, from whom, and combined with need and technical ability, I am confident that we are approaching a fairly dramatic turning point in how organizations will be structured from an enterprise architecture perspective. We'll see a big leap in 'meaningful' quality of data, engagement across the enterprise, transparency and security, meritocracy, and decision making.
I am impressed with your article. I have been in health care for 30 years and there is a huge difference between collecting data and analytics. Most and I mean most managers are not trained in analytics. Most don't have or don't want to spend the time. In healthcare this issue is becoming even more critical as we move forward incorporating the total patient and family care experience.
One point I think that is really important in this discussion is the notion of keeping the analytics at a level people can understand and relate to. This doesn't, in the case of healthcare, pertain just to Doctors but to all members of the care team and at all levels, including the patient.
I would like to hear more discussion about this issue as it relates to healthcare.
Whether as a results of techology application or as result of acumen; results are all. Predictive models through CIM's and a DSS's make executive lives easier to manage what matter the most "Mission achievement", Lobbying is essntial when managing "A" staffs too, but accurate full of strategic content decision are mostly appreciated when looking for a leadership profile.
This are my smalls opinions.
Great interview/article. Makes me wish I had taken a course with Professor Davenport when I was getting my MBA at Babson. It's interesting to see that this line of thinking is starting to make its way into the mainstream conversation about developing an analytical management mindset. At DecisionPath we've been researching and writing about this for years. We spoke about it in our book, The Profit Impact of Business Intelligence back in 2006, and published findings from an empirical study on the positive impact of assimilating BI into core business processes in the Business Intelligence Journal in 2007 ("BI Impact: The Assimilation of Business Intelligence into Core Business Processes"). In a more recent, but related study, "Performance Management and Business Intelligence: A Power Combination", we found a pretty startling statistic on the impact of coordinate BI with operational processes such as business performance management (BPM). We found that those with coordinated BPM and BI initiatives, companies are three times as likely to have achieved major business performance improvements. Really hoping to see you guys continue to evangelize the impact of analytics on companies' bottom lines.

Why leftists don't trust Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, and Deval Patrick
Bigotry has nothing to do with it
Drew Angerer/Getty Images, REUTERS/Mario Anzuoni, Larry French/Getty Images
byRyan Cooper
The contest for control of the Democratic Party between left and center is continuing apace. The latest battleground is over a handful of minority Democrats being groomed by the centrist establishment to run for office: Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), and former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick.
If the center wants to win over a suspicious left, they can start by clearly explaining their policy orientation, particularly in areas where they might have fallen short by the supposed standards of the modern Democratic Party — which all three of the above candidates have done in various ways. If they want to deepen divisions, they can use cynical accusations of bigotry to try to beat back any leftist challenger.
Let's take each in turn. The former attorney general of California, Harris is mistrusted by the left mostly because of her roots as a prosecutor. The Black Lives Matter movement has put anyone with law enforcement history under close scrutiny, and California's criminal justice system is notoriously brutal (though it has improved recently). While she is obviously no Jeff Sessions, Harris has sometimes displayed a rather Hillary Clinton-esque tendency to say the right thing but not follow through in a vigorous way. Most notoriously, she refused to prosecute Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's old company OneWest for numerous instances of almost certain illegal foreclosure, against the advice of her own Consumer Law Section, and has so far refused to say why. (She was also the only Senate Democratic candidate to get a donation from Mnuchin himself in 2016.)
Booker is mistrusted because of his ties to Wall Street. Most notoriously, when President Obama attacked Mitt Romney during the 2012 campaign for his long career as a bloodsucking financial parasite, buying up companies only to strip their assets and drive them into bankruptcy, Booker defended Bain Capital on Meet the Press. Why? Because New Jersey is just across the river from Manhattan and both parties are drowning in Wall Street cash.
Patrick is least trusted of all because he actually works for Bain Capital as a managing director. If he were to run for president, as Obama's inner circle is apparently urging him to, President Trump would just have to copy-paste Obama's 2012 ads.
In other words, there are quite substantive reasons why a leftist might not trust any of those candidates. The probably accurate perception that all three candidates are being groomed by the same big-money donors that clustered around Hillary Clinton will only deepen the divide, because it suggests that — like pro-union rules, or the public option in ObamaCare — any adoption of Sanders-style proposals are mostly bait to be cast aside when it comes time to actually pass something.
If they want to win over the left — and Harris, who has expressed at least mild support for tuition-free public college (for families with income less than $140,000), a $15 minimum wage, expanded Social Security, and Medicare for all, would probably be the most credible person to attempt this — they need to first explain their recent history.
Second, and perhaps more importantly, they need to make a symbolic rhetorical break with the despised donor class. The left generally likes Elizabeth Warren because she ferociously criticizes Wall Street and corporate abuse. Adopting a harsh anti-economic elite line will reassure young Sanders Democrats that anti-establishment policies aren't just window dressing. Meanwhile, steps like refusing to take PAC money and running mostly on small donors will signal independence from the donor class (and as Sanders discovered, might actually lead to a gusher of campaign cash).
But if they just want to have a retread of the 2015-16 primary, the center could just try to win dirty. The left, they might say (working hand-in-glove with sympathetic columnists), just doesn't like minority or female candidates because they are racist and sexist.
I would bet quite a lot of money the centrist Democratic establishment will opt for the latter strategy. Indeed, some are already doing so — like Neera Tanden, head of the Center for American Progress, elite Democrats' in-house think tank.
That would be pretty rich coming from the crowd that shamelessly leveraged Islamophobia to keep Keith Ellison — probably the left's second-most trusted politician, after Bernie Sanders — out of the chair of the Democratic National Committee.(Update: Neera Tanden contacted us after this story was published and asked that we clarify that she personally defended Keith Ellison from these attacks.) Indeed, in other forums the left is simultaneously being criticized for being too sympathetic to radical Muslim and black activists. On Tuesday the neoconservative Bari Weiss lambasted leftists for, among other things, associating with the Muslim activist Linda Sarsour (for being anti-Zionist) and cast their praise of the exiled black radical Assata Shakur as love of a cop-killer — conveniently neglecting to mention that the reason people support her is their belief that she was framed for the murder.
That extraordinarily cheap attack at least has the actual history of social justice activism straight, in which the left has long been leading the charge and centrists following (often very far) behind.
At any rate, if I had to guess, I'd say we're in for a rather bitter fight for supremacy over the Democratic Party between big money elites on one side and Sanders Democrats on the other. But for actual individuals like Harris, it's worth considering the extremely weakened state of the party elite compared to 2013. Clinton's defeat completely shattered the elite's reputation for competence, and they will have a much harder time beating back a left-wing challenger in 2020. Even on purely tactical grounds, it probably makes more sense to permanently throw one's lot in with the left.

Famiglia d'origine
Eugenia era figlia di Oscar di Svezia e di Giuseppina di Leuchtenberg, al tempo della sua nascita principi ereditari di Svezia e Norvegia. I suoi nonni paterni erano il re Carlo XIV di Svezia e la regina Désirée Clary; quelli materni Eugenio di Beauharnais, duca di Leuchtenberg e la principessa Augusta di Baviera.

Biografia
Come scrittrice Eugenia fu autrice della collana biografica Les princesses de la Suède, opera scritta in lingua francese e pubblicata nel 1864, successivamente tradotta in svedese.Tra le sue opere musicali sono degne di nota i pezzi per pianoforte, prevalentemente valzer e mazurche e quelli per cetra, alcuni dei quali furono successivamente interpretati come arie. Usò il nome d'arte di  " E ****** ", in diverse varianti.

Durante tutta la sua vita non godette mai di buona salute. A partire dal 1860 trascorse tutte le estati nella sua residenza di Villa Fridhem nel Gotland. Qui iniziò un'importante attività filantropica sostenendo economicamente un collegio, un orfanotrofio e un ospedale per malati terminali. Nei pressi della città di Stoccolma fondò un altro ospedale, l'Eugeniahemmet, per i bambini con malattie incurabili. Eugenia morì nubile nel Palazzo reale di Stoccolma il 23 aprile 1889, il giorno precedente il suo cinquantanovesimo compleanno. È sepolta nella chiesa di Riddarholmen a Stoccolma.

After surviving an encounter with the Aliens, a feverishly ill member of a scientific expedition wrestles with his own memory and conscience. What was the truth behind their mission?
An interesting tale told through flashbacks and hallucinations. A scientific survey expedition encounters an Alien hive and the story is told from the perspective of the single fever-ridden survivor. This is another refreshing perspective in the Aliens comics series, the protagonist is not a hero he's just a normal family man thrown into an extraordinary situation and desperate to protect his own. There is a melancholic feel to this tale as the human party desperately tries to cope with the situation, only to fail at every turn. The ultimate dénouement is made more poignant by the fact that the main protagonist is actually likeable and relatable, which is something a number of earlier series have failed to achieve. The Company angle was effectively used and reminded me of their actions in Alien (1979).
Artwork was effective in conveying the delirium induced hallucinations and the artist clearly took his cues from the Aliens universe, this is the first story in a while where I have felt that the artist had made an effort in replicating the aesthetic feel of the films, from uniforms to work environments.
I thoroughly recommend this series, demonstrating why it's always a good idea to employ a decent writer and artist, and goes someway to erasing the memory of the previous clusterf**k of a story.


In this edition of The Last Mixed Tape's song-of-the-week feature The Mixed-Tape we turn our attention to 'Stripped Down' by Molly Sterling.
The continuing evolution of Molly Sterling is once again brought into focus with the songwriter's latest offering, the atmospherically dense and deeply textured 'Stripped Down'.
An emotionally weighty song, 'Stripped Down' ebbs and flows via the power of Sterling's powerful lead vocal that pulls the intensity of the sonic backdrop lies waiting beneath. Resulting in yet another step into new and interesting territory for Molly Sterling as she further redefines herself as something more unpredictable.

Q: Multiprocessing on parselmouth objects I am trying to apply multiprocessing on parselmouth PRAAT functions to extract multiple functions.

  cls(buf, protocol).dump(obj) TypeError: can't pickle parselmouth.Sound objects

Although I am not passing parselmouth.Sound objects as arguments to the class methods , I still get this error

A: Hmmm, apparently Parselmouth object don't support the pickle protocol yet (see the error message TypeError: can't pickle parselmouth.Sound objects). I had never thought of it in the context of multiprocessing, but it might be worth implementing for these kinds of use cases, indeed!
I'll see if I can get it in the next release. Something tells me it shouldn't be ridiculously hard :-)
Meanwhile, what you could probably do is write the file to a temporary directory, and read it again in each of the separate processes of multiprocessing?

A: You can do multiprocessing in Parselmouth by using Python's multiprocessing module and making sure the sounds are created in each process, also if on windows create the process in an if __name__ == __main__ statement. asyncio is not for CPU-bound processes, like Parselmouth is, so multiprocessing is more appropriate. Here is a working example:
import parselmouth
from multiprocessing import Pool, cpu_count
from glob import glob

# First make a function to multiprocess
def get_mean_pitch(filename):
    try:
        pitch = parselmouth.Sound(filename).to_pitch()
        mean_pitch = parselmouth.praat.call(pitch, "Get mean", 0, 0, "Hertz")
    except:
        mean_pitch = 0
    return mean_pitch

# Then make a list of wav files to iterate over
sound_filenames = sorted(glob("*.wav")

# Get the number of CPUs on the machine
cpus = cpu_count()

# Create a pool of CPUs
pool = Pool(cpus)

# Map the function over the list of files
results = pool.map(get_pitch, sound_filenames)


In 2002, a popular movement grew in opposition to poorly justified plans to invade Iraq. Due to the general enthusiasm of mass media toward this and other wars, it became all the more necessary for activists and people of conscience to organize their opposition within the media. This web-ring system furthers this effort because it is a low-budget, easily sustainable mechanism for grouping the media activities of hundreds of individuals.


Take a look at the starting XI for tonight's Carabao Cup tie at Craven Cottage.
Manager Darrell Clarke has made three changes to the side that defeated Bury on Saturday, for today's fixture against Fulham.
Marc Bola starts in his first appearance for Rovers, while Byron Moore makes his first start of the season. Stuart Sinclair comes into midfield, replacing Ollie Clarke.
Rovers: Sam Slocombe, Marc Bola, Tom Lockyer (C), Ryan Sweeney, Lee Brown, Liam Sercombe, Chris Lines, Stuart Sinclair, Byron Moore, Ellis Harrison, Billy Bodin.
Subs: Alexis Andre (GK), Tom Nichols, Tom Broadbent, Ryan Broom, Dom Telford, Rory Gaffney.
