The Climate lawsuit against Shell
Both ENDS is co-plaintiff in the climate lawsuit being brought by Milieudefensie (Friends of the Earth The Netherlands) against Shell to stop the company from causing harm to the climate. Shell has known about the severity of the climate problem for many years but continues with the climate-polluting extraction of oil and gas. By doing so, it undermines efforts to achieve the climate goals. Companies have a responsibility not to cause serious harm to society and the climate. Because Shell refuses to take that responsibility itself, we are taking the company to court. In brief, we demand that Shell has zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 and adapts its activities to be fully aligned with the climate goals in the Paris Agreement.

A human rights perspective on women and the environment (Annual Report 2017)
Although the human rights to water, food and a healthy environment have been incorporated in international legal instruments, in many countries these rights are violated on a massive scale. Women suffer disproportionally, because it is mostly still their role to feed the family and fetch water, but also because they lack decision-making power over the use of natural resources.

Women's rights undermined in South Africa
The population of the informal settlement Masakhane, South Africa is highly affected by the pollution and environmental damage caused by the the coal-fired Duvha power station. Before the mining and power station developments, families had access to and control over the land, even if they did not own it. Farming used to be the main source of livelihood. Today, mining companies and investors own most of the land, and as a direct consequence people have lost a lot of their farming and grazing land. This video shows testimonies of victims and their efforts to turn the tide.

SOA reaches out to the cloud -- will business follow?
ZDNet blogging colleague Dion Hinchcliffe predicts 2007 is the year SOA will begin to open up more to the Internet cloud, and I'm inclined to agree with him. And I want to take this scenario a step further and look at what this means for the SOA business case.
Things will be different than the scenarios imagined when Web services first hit the scene seven or eight years ago. Back then, during the frenzy of the dot-com era, it was thought the main purpose of Web services was to help smooth the friction of e-business between organizations or between suppliers and consumers. And, they have to some extent -- ask anyone who deals with Wal-Mart or Amazon.
But when talking about gelling those services into a service-oriented architecture, we're talking about integration and access inside the walls of the enterprise, limited to pilots, demos, or specific business process flows.
So, Web services started out as an external play, was turned into an internal play, and now things will be turned inside-out to once again.
Dion's prediction raises some interesting questions around the ROI and business case for SOA projects. Right now, many SOA proponents are struggling with these issues, and regular readers of this blog have seen many of the arguments around what makes SOA worthwhile, or less than worthwhile. Reuse? Developer productivity? Lower-cost integration? Streamlining?
Thus, the business case for SOA may become very similar to that of SaaS -- avoiding large upfront investments in systems and software in favor of more incremental costs. SOA is SaaS behind the firewall, and will blend with SaaS in the cloud. It's about infrastructure, or avoiding infrastructure.
The business big picture -- the promised land of agility -- still remains a blur in the distance, as it does for internal SOA. The new efficiencies promised by e-business are well documented, and often debated. But how deeply can such efficiencies reach into the guts of the business?


[RELEASE] Miner Complications "By: Dennis "SCZ" Collins"
StarCraftZerg Dukemaps.net salutes you! Keep up the great work! This map rocks!
The construction of the level is excellent, and reminds me of some maps by Alejandro Glavic. Unfortunately, the gameplay is terrible for me because I die in the first room from the ridiculous number of enemies in an open space and no weapon but a pistol. It gets a little better after that, but there are way too many enemies everywhere. If you have amazing skills or just cheese strats to handle it, then good on you. But even so, that many enemies destroys the atmosphere because it is just constant fighting with no feeling of exploration. Until they are dead, of course.
most of Dennis' maps are like that; they look good, but the enemy count is ridiculous.
Haven't taken a shot at this one yet, but one of the better tactics in his levels is to wake the aliens up and run around in circles until half of them are dead from friendly-fire. That way there's usually enough ammo pick-ups to finish off the rest.
Yea, I enjoyed the map on Come Get Some difficulty, probably not a map you want to play on Damn i'm Good. I found the opening scene a bit discouraging but with persistence it paid off. I was finally able to survive the opening battle scene and it definitely set the tone for how I was going to tackle the remaining part of the level... with caution. Anyway, going forward the map becomes way more balanced and provides enough supplies to keep going. Everything about this map during my first play through I did wrong. For instance, there was a really cool under water scene and I did that before finding the scuba gear. I just thought this was how the author wanted us to do it without scuba because there was a lot of health scattered underwater and even though your health drops from running out of air you could pick up health packs along the way to keep your health high enough from proving fatal.
Also, I managed to get all the key cards and fighting the mini bosses before actually locating a rocket launcher. Again it was only after I totally cleaned an area I realized there were more high powered weapons scattered nearby. This was probably because I was so distracted by the hoards of enemies I didn't have time to locate a new weapon. But it made the game play very stimulating and made me a better player for it. Even though at times it felt the balance of power was in favor of the aliens, it made the map seem really realistic and i appreciated the challenge this map offered. There were a few minor sprite issues and a teleport into the sewers which could have been more seamless, otherwise it was a very solid level for the amount of detail and design that went into it. I enjoyed the AI placement and how they defended each area, it was a good combination of AI in each area... that... or I just got extremely lucky.
It was kind of funny too, because I cleaned out this area that had a big water hole and the water current leading into the pit was trying to push Duke down into it. I thought there's no way in hell i'm going to let that happen. Well damn it, it did happen and i ended up falling into that pit. I thought for sure I was going to die, but on the way down I accidentally hit the top of a Jet packing Trooper which cushioned my fall, then I fell the remaining way. I thought for sure I was screwed because I didn't have a jet pack. Low and behold to my surprise I wasn't stuck. I liked the fact the author didn't make that hole a show stopper and provided the player with a means of redeeming themselves.
"Very nice looking map. Articulate detailing, trimming, and architecture. Nice shading and texture combos. I like how you kept it industrial, but were still able to use different texture sets for different areas, and it all blended together quite well.
Lots of little stashes and side-areas to explore, which is nice.
Never found the shrinker & didn't find all the buttons to open the armory.
Once again a map of yours starts off with a ridiculous and over-whelming situation that requires running in circles around a large group of aliens until there's enough fratricide and ammo drops to clear the area out and get a foothold. It's like being a dolphin trying to swirl up a bait-ball of mackerel. It takes a few attempts to do it an live. Some people don't mind, some people are going to dislike it. A lot.
After that bit, it plays out pretty good.
I very much enjoyed it. Thank you."
This was a ton of fun! Played CGS, 3/7 secrets.
The onslaught of enemies and the freedom to choose which areas to clear first reminded me of Doom II, which I've been playing recently. It was well implemented, as there was plenty of ammo and health, but you had to keep looking for it WHILE killing the hordes of enemies. I liked how most of the time the items were not in plain sight. The first area got me a couple of times until I found the shotgun from the grassy corner, after that I had no issues with balance.
The architecture and detailing were top notch - the place had a very authentic feel to it. The versatile use of textures was a bit too much at times, making some areas look slightly messy. Great sprite work and the gradient shading was quite effective at times.
I wonder why I couldn't pick up this atomic health?
When I first blew up the reactor core room, I thought I was supposed to use this elevator to escape, but ended up getting trapped. Maybe it shouldn't be there, since it wasn't necessary to use it at any point.
No idea why it wouldn't let you grab that atomic. I had no issue picking it up.
I also used the elevator to escape - it rises quick enough, and it stops right in front of one of the exit tunnels.
Can't explain the atomic, but it's interesting how the map can provide different playing experiences.
Okay, perhaps a matter of different eDuke builds, mine was from October (I know, should always use the latest, especially when reporting bugs).
I'm using r7136 from 27 October.
Thought about it for a bit & I believe I strafe-jumped over the fence to get to the lift instead of going through the gap. That's probably the difference.
It should have been timed to allow the player to make it when they take the "proper" path.


MONTPELLIER (IDN) - Most sober Middle East analysts have already put the Muslim Brotherhood in the 'losers' basket. Part of this has been in response to the exaggerated threat of 'radicalism' purported by the mainstream media.
But based on the Polish experience of religion's role in political transition, one cannot help thinking that we have not seen the last of the Muslim Brotherhood yet. Quite the contrary: if it acts cautiously, the movement can win more hearts and minds in the short run before it starts losing credibility among a brand new generation of Egyptians. Here's why.
The comparisons between Polish transition in 1989 and Egyptian revolution 2011 have not been given much thought. Like apples and oranges, they are different but they are both fruit: deeply religious societies that managed to dismantle oppressive systems in a peaceful manner.
In Poland it happened at the Round Table in 1989 where the opposition sat down with regime representatives in the presence of the Catholic Church to agree on semi-free parliamentary elections. In Egypt a popular movement that included all breeds of political and social forces ousted the president and invested their pro-democratic aspirations in the army.
Despite all the differences the reasons behind both revolutions share similarities. The main internal factor of change in Poland was the tragic condition of the economy: "We want bread and freedom" was the demonstrators' slogan in the 1980s (think of the Egyptian bread riots in the 1970s). There was literally nothing in the stores but they remained open.
My only childhood memory of chocolate is my mother's inexplicable invention of a substance resembling the original only in colour and texture.
But in the late 1980s the Polish regime tried to reform, unsuccessfully. The level of social rage grew constantly. Precisely the same has happened in Egypt over the past decade. Although the Egyptian economy is not centrally planned in its entirety, the level of impoverishment and social anger paralleled the Polish example in spite of the economic reforms.
Egyptians, like my mother and all Poles, wanted their dignity back.
In part, both societies' religiosity and politicisation of religion inspired that quest. I do not mean to compare the Catholic Church and the Muslim Brotherhood per se. Neither do I ignore the obvious differences between Christianity and Islam: but there are some parallels and interesting questions that arise.
Ninety-five percent of Poles declare themselves religious (and Catholic) compared to 98 percent of Egyptians. Both regimes then, in Poland and Egypt, feared the power of religion. In Egypt it was concealed behind a facade of embracing official Islam via Al-Azhar (though the prominent Mosque rarely engaged politically and openly served the state) and amid repression of the politically-active Muslim Brotherhood.
The division by the late French orientalist Maxime Rodinson between official Islam (controlled by the state) and the popular one (expressed by the people themselves) is tricky in Egypt. The strength of the Muslim Brotherhood is that it has managed to stay between the two realms.
It found a way to operate within the system, winning a significant number of seats in parliament, and at the same time never ceased to epitomise the anti-regime struggle. This in-between status gives its policies greater flexibility, which is an advantage in any tumultuous time.
In Poland for the most part of the Communist era the Catholic Church, albeit in opposition to the regime, was able to function fairly autonomously until it engaged in political and social debate, mainly after 1978 when a Pole became pope.
Out of the wave of workers' protests in 1980 emerged Solidarnosc – a peculiar amalgam that included trade unionists, leftists and people associated with the Catholic church. Later, the Egyptian 'Kefaya' - a grassroots movement of mostly leftist and Islamist activists - would parallel the birth of Solidarnosc.
In the Polish mindset, Catholicism lay at the roots of the notion of the Polish nation: it linked Solidarity with the 'good old times' of pre-war Poland. The country regained independence in 1918 after 123 years of non-existence. Egypt waited 121 years after Napoleon's invasion until the 1919 revolution to get rid of British colonial rule.
It may be too simplistic an analogy, but certainly the idea of being the de facto 'leader of the Muslim world' was already imprinted in the Egyptian national psyche.
Religious roots go deep. Even though today the majority of Egyptians do not seem to accept the Muslim Brotherhood's ideology, they do not openly criticise it, primarily because it would put them on a par with the regime and because the brotherhood enjoys high esteem.
Similarly, in Poland the respect and political engagement on behalf of the opposition let the Catholic Church play an important part in the transitional period. It joined the Round Table (as an observer) and supported the subsequent reforms. It also gave the revolution a moral flavor. After the brief moment of anti-regime unity, however, a more pluralist political scene evolved.
At first, transitional-period democracy naturally evokes conflict. Old associations break up, groups take care of their own business. The new, inexperienced parties usually play on basic social discomforts.
In Poland living conditions deteriorated drastically after 1989. We went from virtually zero unemployment to 11 percent in 1991 and to 250 percent inflation in only one year's time. In the short run we can certainly expect even greater economic hardship in Egypt. In fact, we are already witnessing it. Egyptian socio-demographic problems are far greater than those of Poland in 1989.
The danger here is that politicised religion thrives on the dispossessed. The disappointed look to the 'good old times' – some may even support the post-Mubarak NDP party just as many Poles clung to the post-Communist elite. But some will choose the Muslim Brotherhood, given the fluidity and pro-social character of their policies. In Poland even the radical catholic Christian National Union, a marginal offshoot of Solidarity, won 8.7 percent votes in 1991.
This matters in the immediate future in Egypt because the nature of the country's legal and educational systems will come up for debate (according to 66 percent of Egyptians shari'a must be the only source of state legislation).
These are the most divisive secularisation-related issues. In Poland they were quickly dealt with. In 1990, Catholic religion was introduced in public schools, with two classes a week for a duration of 12 years. In 1993 abortion was made illegal. These were the immediate gains for the church as a result of its political and social influence.
In Egypt religious gains in the realm of politics will depend on the interaction between Al-Azhar and the Muslim Brotherhood. The two have traditionally been in conflict. Sheikh Ahmed el-Tayeb, the imam of Al-Azhar, faces a daunting task of restoring the institution's status. If he manages to do so – and he does have a window of opportunity in the transitional period – it would counterbalance the Muslim Brotherhood, giving the religious scene a healthy pluralistic tone.
It is the laymen who insulate politics from religion. Crippled by decades of marginalisation, the secular opposition needs to mobilise and organise quickly. In Poland, post-transformation gutter politics saw a split in the Solidarnosc movement, the emergence of hundreds of tiny political parties, a nasty blame game and populism. The phenomenon of a politicised church also grew into extreme forms: the popularity of Radio Maryja, a chauvinist, anti-Semitic Catholic radio station, is a perfect example.
But as Polish society modernised and got richer with time in the late 1990s and 2000s, the Catholic Church struggled to find its place in the public sphere. What Egypt badly needs now is a fast-working technocratic team which could at least partially avert public discontent. That might eventually be the best shield against a growing politicisation of religion. Later on, with improved living conditions, yet another generation will emerge in public life, one that may be more secular.
But for the time being Egyptians are becoming more and more religious. Unsurprisingly perhaps since the literacy rate in Egypt does not exceed 66 percent (it was 99 percent in 1989 in Poland). The strength of secular forces might be further weakened by the reaction of external actors. The Yes-No-Maybe response of US President Barack Obama to the protests made Egyptians feel deprived of Western support. Poles were convinced that the US and the West were behind them, be it true or not.
Apart from Turkey, who can the Egyptians count on? At first Egyptians are likely to count on the Muslim Brotherhood. Should we make bets on the secular character of Egyptian politics just because young people use Facebook?
If Poland is to serve as a precedent, as a country which really wanted to Westernise but which ended up struggling with its own religiosity, it seems that in Egypt religion will not only stay in the public sphere and in political life, but will thrive there, at least initially.

Q: How to send a message on connect from a Netty based server to every incomming client connection? Code snippet.
An attempt to write a hello to the connection made to server. I assume the channelActive is called once a connection is made and use the context to write the response. But nothing is received at the client.
public class EchoServerHandler extends ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter {
....
//edit checking status of future
public void channelActive(ChannelHandlerContext ctx) throws Exception {

    super.channelActive(ctx);
//    ChannelFuture f = ctx.write("hello"); //EDIT2  : cant use String use ByteBuf
        ByteBuf msg = Unpooled.copiedBuffer("hello", CharsetUtil.UTF_8);
    ctx.write(msg);
    if (f.isSuccess()) {
        System.out.println("success");
    }
    else {
        System.out.println("failed");
        f.cause().printStackTrace(); // EDIT2: Helpful in determining cause of failure

    }
    if (f.isDone()) {
        System.out.println("Done");
    }else
    {
        System.out.println("Not Done");
    }
    System.out.println("channelActive");
}    .....
}

A: You cannot do it like that. Channel operations are asynchronous, isSucess() is meaningless unless isDone() returns true. Read the documentation for ChannelFuture, and if the operation really fails, write out the cause() of the failure.

This is the fourth in a series of blogs about getting organized so I can finish two projects I have completed first drafts for (one a novella, one a full-length novel).
Wondering about the origins of this series? Read this blog: Getting Organized.
I know that my set-up last week for settings was pretty awful, but getting my settings organized was pretty painless - which was a HUGE blessing because this week has involved a lot of poking, prodding, and general discomfort for me personally.
This week's process also took a huge step away from sticky notes and notebook paper, and into the realm of index cards.
First, I went back to the outlines to see what settings appeared in which part.
I wrote each one down on a separate index card, using a different colored ink pen for each one.
Then I noted on each card which part(s) of the story each setting was mentioned in.
If you want to get super-organized and use different colored index cards based on a system of your choosing, feel free.
I used 3"x5" white index cards because it's what I had on-hand, and they're incredibly cheap to buy.
My next step was to go back to the parts each setting is mentioned in and write down descriptions based on what I wrote in the story.
This included objects in the room, distance between objects, and the room's location within the building.
Whatever details you pick up on as you read through again should be fair game.
After that, I scanned each notecard into a .pdf file - three to a page.
Depending on the size you pick and the scanner you have, you might be able to do more or less.
Finally, I bought a notecard holder for the setting cards.
It has dividers, which will come in handy for storing the setting cards for later drafts.
You don't have to do anymore than wrap a rubber band around them - I just thought the dividers were neat.
Like I said, this week was pretty painful for me personally, so it was a breath of fresh air to have a simple task for this week's blog post.
Additionally, I saved myself a lot of time by both noting the settings in the outline and making the setting cards as I wrote the outline.
All I had to do after that was look up the settings in each part and write the descriptions down from there.
Along the way, I noticed some of my settings were rich with detail, while others relied heavily on the reader using his/her imagination to fill in the blanks.
I also noticed that the settings rich in detail were the settings where the largest moments in my plotlines occured.
As far as the scanning goes - I was really excited to do that this week.
When you're marking 8-1/2" x 11" pages with sticky notes in such a way that the notes are semi-visible, and the largest piece of paper your scanner is built to scan is 8-1/2" x 11", it's harder to scan.
If your scanner will take 11" x 17", then I recommend scanning EVERYTHING as you go along.
I'm really looking forward to using the scanner more as this progresses.
So, what is on tap for next week?
We'll be venturing back in character territory next week, with character bios.
I can't wait - can you?

Special Edition - May 2, 2011
Officials Cut Ribbon on New TownePlace
Suites by Marriott at Quonset
Hotel Expected to be First with LEED
Designation in Rhode Island's West Bay
Developers and state officials, including Senator Jack Reed, Congressman Jim Langevin and Lieutenant Governor Elizabeth Roberts today cut the ribbon on the new TownePlace Suites by Marriott North Kingstown, Rhode Island. The "green" hotel brings additional jobs to the Quonset Business Park, where 8,800 people are already employed at 168 companies. Currently one of out every 50 jobs in Rhode Island is located at Quonset.
"Funding provided for Towne Place Suites through SBA's 504 program and our lending partners at Ocean State Business Development Authority is the largest in the history of the program here in Rhode Island," said Mark S. Hayward, director of the SBA Rhode Island District Office. "We are pleased that this project is both environmentally friendly and economically sound and it will provide much-needed permanent jobs."
The 55,453-sf hotel features an energy efficient geothermal system for cooling and heating. The sustainably built hotel used recycled and local materials during construction. The facility was designed and built with the goal of becoming the first LEED certified facility in the greater Providence, Rhode Island region. The hotel's environmental design plans to reduce water usage by up to 30%, utilize optimized energy management systems, provide enhanced indoor air quality and ventilation, and utilize "Green Cleaning" practices, benefiting both its guests and the environment.
QDC and NK Chamber to
Hold E-Waste Recycling Event
The Quonset Development Corporation and North Kingstown Chamber of Commerce will partner for an e-waste recycling event on Friday, May 20. The event will take place from 7:30 am - noon, in the QDC Parking Lot.
Goodwill Industries of Providence, RI is sponsoring the event. Goodwill has recently partnered with Dell to become one of 2,200 "Reconnect" computer recycling sites across the nation. Goodwill is the only RI site and expects to recycle between 300,000 - 400,000 pounds of e-waste annually and create green jobs in RI.
Items such as CPUs/computers, servers, keyboards, spare computer parts, monitors, laptops, network equipment, laser printers, radios, scanners, fax machines, cables and wires, cell phones and ink/laser cartridges are all accepted.
The event is free, but a donation of $5.00 to benefit the NK Chamber of Commerce at time of drop off is greatly appreciated.

Any way to gauge the memory leak?
Is there any way to view how bad the memory leak is on the iPhone? If there is no native app to view available ram, is there one available for jailbroked phones?
I'm getting the low memory message when trying to open apps, occassional lags (keyboard, contacts, etc.) and crashes where the phone gets dumped back to the home screen. The crashes occur even when I haven't opened 3rd party apps after a soft reset (usually happens in safari).
So, I'd like to be able to view memory usage similar to the memory usage screen on WM if possible.
There may have been a app for the older firmware. But with the new firmware all the apps are pretty much useless until they are updated. And that's if they even are updated for the new firmware. You may be out of luck.

Alternative School Photography that's natural and fun.
School Uniform mini-sessions work a bit differently to a family photoshoot. But don't worry I can explain it all for you. Please have a read below and to give you a little idea of how it all works. I'm always happy to answer any questions on email or phone. So please contact me on 07977 417336 or tessa@tessaclements.co.uk if you'd like a chat.
When can I do my school uniform pictures?
I run the School Uniform mini-sessions a couple of times a year. Usually on a weekend, around the time the children are all going back for the new school year. But occasionally I add in extra dates throughout the year. Please click the link below to fill out the form and I can contact you when I have dates available to book.
I run the sessions in a local Beckenham park. Being outside gives a lovely natural feel to the pictures and really helps keep the children relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera.
Each School Uniform mini-session last 15 minutes which is usually plenty of time to get a few different shots of your child.
What should they wear and what do we need to bring?
They need to come dressed in their school uniform so we're all ready to start when they arrive. It's also worth bringing any other items of their uniform e.g hat, bag, jumper, blazer. It helps to get a mix of pictures if you have all the extra items of their uniform to hand.
It's also worth bringing one of their favourite books and a 'treat' to keep them happy and relaxed.
I'm constantly checking the weather in the few days leading up to the day. If rain looks likely then I will contact you to re-arrange for my next available School uniform mini sessions date, but this happens surprisingly rarely.
However if someone falls ill last minute then I will do my best to re-arrange your shoot for the next available School uniform mini sessions date.
Please fill in the form below so I can contact you with the dates of my next School Uniform mini-sessions. Or please feel free to call me on 07977 417 336 or send me a message on tessa@tessaclements.co.uk if you have any questions.
I ask for a £20 retainer fee payable at the point of booking which holds your date and time. This is off-set against your final cost which is due on the day of the School Uniform mini-session.
Please sign up here to find out when I'm next running the School Uniform mini-sessions.

Q: How can I draw 3D model outlines on the iPhone? (OpenGL ES) I've got a pretty simple situation that calls for something I don't know how to do without a stencil buffer (which is not supported on the iPhone).
Basically, I've got a 3D model that gets drawn behind an image. I want an outline of that model to be drawn on top of it at all times. So when it's behind the image, you can see its outline, and when its not behind the image you can see a model with an outline.
An option to simply get an outline working would be to draw a wireframe of the model with thick lines and a z offset, then draw the regular model on top of it. The problem with this is obviously that I need the outline to be drawn after the model.
This method needs to be fast, as I'm already pushing a lot of polygons around - full-on drawing of the model again in one way or another is not really desired.
Also, is there any way to find out whether my model can be seen at the moment? That is, whether or not the image over top has an opaque section at the position of the model, or if it has a transparent section. If I can figure this out (again, very quickly), then I can just draw a wireframe instead of a textured model, depending on if it's visible.
Any ideas here? Thanks.

A: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/people/hoppe/proj/silmap/ Is a technical paper on the matter.  Hopefully there's an easier way for you to accomplish this ;)

A: Here is a general option that might produce the effect you want (I have experience with OGL, but not iPhone):
Method 1

*

*Render object to texture as pure white, separate from scene.  This will produce a white mask where the object would be rendered.

*Either draw this directly to the screen with alpha fade for a "full object", or if you're intent on your outlines, you could try rendering THIS texture to another texture, slightly enlarged, then render the original "full object" shading over this enlarged texture as pure black.  This will create a sort of outline texture that you could render over the top of the scene.
Method 2
Edit out.  Just read the "no stencil buffer" stipulation.
Does that help?

A: most of the time you can re-create stencil effects using the alpha channel and render-to-texture if you think about it ...


Memory loss can be one of the most devastating events that a family experiences. Seeing a parent you love slowly lose their ability to remember life's most cherished moments – or even recognize who you are – can be overwhelming. Elder Advisory Group can help families cope with a variety of services and support.
Slower memory processing can be a part of the aging process. Dementia can also be caused by temporary health factors. Family members have many unanswered questions. Is it really Alzheimer's disease? Is there anything that we can do? Why don't my siblings see what is happening to our parent? Should Mom live on her own?
Most seniors want to continue living in their own homes as long as possible. We will conduct an assessment of your loved one's living environment and provide tips and resources on how to make their home safer. If staying at home doesn't seem like a viable option, we'll recommend a senior living community that can provide the care and attention your loved one needs.
A comprehensive safety assessment of your older parent's living situation may help determine next steps and Elder Advisory Group is there to advise a clear path through the elder care maze. We offer an analysis of risks and benefits of remaining at home, and we provide recommendations for services and resources to improve safety and quality of life. When the time comes for the at-risk elder to leave their home, we provide compassionate guidance in making the difficult transition to other housing options, including assisted living communities and skilled nursing facilities.
We may coordinate medical appointments and recommend providers that specialize in geriatric and dementia care. Our team will help you evaluate the pros and cons of various treatment options. Additionally, we may accompany your loved one to their appointments and advocate on their behalf. Most importantly, we'll help your family develop new ways of communicating effectively with the cognitively impaired elder, understanding their limitations, and maintaining the quality of your relationship.
We may refer to other memory care services and providers including elder care attorneys, financial advisors, neurologists as well as community resources and support groups.

Meghan Markle's Ex Joshua Silverstein Praises Her For 'Bravely' Talking About Alleged 'History Of Racism In The Royal Family'
May 18 2021, Published 12:34 p.m. ET
Even though the royal family was less than pleased with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Oprah Winfrey interview, the former actress' first boyfriend, Joshua Silverstein, was proud of his ex for standing up for herself.
"She got on Oprah and she was very honest and transparent with her experience with the Royal Family," Silverstein — who dated Meghan when she was 13 — said on the U.K. show Lorraine. "There's a history of racism that I'm sure you know in the Royal Family that goes back to the transatlantic slave trade. So the fact that Meghan was able to get on TV and bravely talk about that, is awesome."
"Whenever people of color speak out against oppression and racism, genuinely there's a huge backlash so the fact she got up and spoke about that even knowing it could create a lot of tension between her and her family, I thought that was really courageous on her part," he shared. "I think the more and more people begin to become honest with their role in oppression and privilege then we can move forward."
"I think the unfortunate role of humanity is we want to pretend things are great. The more people can speak comfortably about pain and trauma, then healing can begin," he added.
While speaking to Winfrey, Meghan and Harry claimed that someone in the royal family was "concerned" over Archie's skin color.
Winfrey later revealed that Queen Elizabeth nor Prince Philip were in on those conversations.
Meanwhile, Prince William clapped back at the allegations, telling reporters, "We are very much not a racist family."
But fans were less than pleased with Silverstein's interview.
"Why have you just allowed somebody on your show to say that the British Royal Family are institutionally racist without asking him to back that up with facts?" one person asked, while another fumed, "Why are we being told how racist the UK is by some unknown person. Lorraine just agrees. No balance."
LADY IN RED! KATE MIDDLETON LOOKS GLAMOROUS IN LONG COAT AS SHE ARRIVES AT THE NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY — PHOTOS
"I can't believe that interview with Megan's first boyfriend. What was Lorraine playing at? She allowed him to accuse the royals as being racist of Megan telling truths in her interview with OW. She didn't correct him once," a third person wrote.
Silverstein also had nothing but kind words to say about his ex on the show — even calling her "a very strong, confident young person."


In 2014, I attended the Advance LA, Resilience Conference. The topic was Resilience but the conversation often went to higher education for young adults on the spectrum and then to jobs or careers. With improved therapies, earlier diagnosis, and better outcomes the teens and young adults of today can contribute to society. Helping your son or daughter look for a job, position, or even career may seem daunting but there are resources and ideas to start with.
To help think of the best type of job for your son or daughter, ask yourself, what does your child love, what is of greatest interest. You can use that information to think of places to work. Attention to detail or extreme attention to detail may be a problem to parents when they are raising their child, but there could be a company or need somewhere that embraces that abilty.
There are resources such as Autism Works Now! Temple Grandin and Joanne Lara have put together Autism Works Now! to train interested individuals on the spectrum for work in offices, community, etc.
Starting your own business is a huge part of the American dream. Everyone hopes to one day get out from the corporate rat race and be their own boss. It's a challenge, and not everyone succeeds, many do.
But when you have a disability, you might feel a bit left out — like that part of the American dream is not for you. Nothing could be further from the truth. These days, it's easier and better than ever for a veteran, civilian, or anyone with a disability to start a new business and be successful. And yes, that includes people with mental health disabilities as well.
What Kind Of Business?Before you start getting your bank statements together for a small business loan, there's a lot of work to be done first. That begins with deciding what kind of business is best for veterans and civilians with a disability.
Becoming a franchise owner is a great way to get in the game. While there are start-up fees, there are always costs with starting a business. A franchise can give you the name-recognition, marketing support, and plans every business needs to succeed.
A government contractor is another good choice. After all, local and federal government offices have a lot of money to spend and a lot they need to purchase. Veteran-owned small businesses are often prefered by the government, giving you an edge that's so crucial when starting a new company from scratch.
If the veteran's health is bad or you have some mobility problems thanks to a disability, you might want to consider a home-based business. From making art and selling it on Etsy to working as a copywriter or blogger, you can make great money from the privacy of your own home.
You Need A PlanNow that you know what kind of business you'll be starting, you need to know how to get it going — and how to survive in this market. That means you need a business plan.
●An executive summary that quickly explains your plan and goals.
●The structure of your business (even if it's just you).
●How to differentiate your business — and your plan — so it stands out.
●An analysis of the market segment you're going to compete in.
●How you will market and advertise your business.
●A description of the product or service you'll be offering.
●A projection (which is different from a guess) of your business' profitability.
Seeking FundingNow that you have your business planned, you are ready to take the first leap into entrepreneurship: getting funding.
You might think that getting money for your new business will be hard if you have a physical disability or a mental health issue, but you are wrong. There are programs out there specifically for small business owners with disabilities. Government grants, private organizations, and even religious institutions can all offer small loans or grants to you if you 1) have a recognized disability and 2) are starting a new business.
It's Hard Work But Worth ItAs a person with a disability, it can be hard to feel ready to start your own business. To help build that courage, you can start by picking one business that you love; create a plan to make it successful; then secure funding from sources that specifically work with disabled small business owners.

Raslag, Pampanga, Philippines
In August 2015, RASLAG Corp., the renewable energy generation arm of Angeles Power, Inc. contracted Conergy Asia & ME to expand their existing 10 megawatt (MWp) power plant in Mexico, Pampanga by adding 13 MWp, which will bring the total capacity of the RASLAG power plant to 23 MWp by the project's completion.
"RASLAG Corp. experienced an exceptional partnership for its existing 10 MWp solar farm project and is glad to team up once again with Conergy for its 13 MWp solar farm expansion project. This project will add another step to our commitment for renewable and sustainable supply for future of generations to come," said Engr. Peter G. Nepomuceno, President and General Manager of RASLAG Corp.
"Conergy is eager to be working with RASLAG Corp. once again for the expansion of its existing solar facility in Pampanga. This is another step forward as we realize our collective vision of powering the Philippines with clean and reliable renewable energy," said Alexander Lenz, CEO, Conergy APAC.
"Our teams are working closely on the ground to ensure that the best photovoltaic systems and solutions are delivered to RASLAG. The Philippines has the advantage of high and predictable levels of sunlight, making it ideal for the development of high quality solar energy plants that can fuel more homes and businesses and also provide access to more affordable and stable sources of electricity," Lenz added.
The original RASLAG 10 MWp power plant occupied an area of 129,438 square meters. With the 133,772 square meter extension, the total plant size will stand at 263,210 square meters. The RASLAG expansion will produce 19,438 megawatt hours per year, which can supply to about 11,700 households, saving 14,300 tons of carbon emission (CO2) every year.

With reference to the experimental observation of crack initiation and propagation from pre-existing flaws in rock specimens under compression, the influences of pre-existing flaw inclination angle on the cracking processes were analyzed by means of finite element method (FEM) and non-linear dynamics method. FEM analysis on the stress field distribution induced by the presence of a pre-existing flaw provided better understanding for the influence of flaw inclination angle on the initiation position and initiation angle of the potential cracks. Numerical analysis based on the non-linear dynamics method was performed to simulate the cracking processes. The resultant crack types, crack initiation sequences and the overall crack pattern were different under different loading conditions. Under a relatively low loading rate or a small magnitude of maximum loading pressure, tensile cracks would tend to initiate prior to shear cracks. In contrast, under a relatively high loading rate and a large magnitude of maximum loading pressure, shear cracks would tend to initiate prior to tensile cracks instead.

Golf's world number one Justin Rose should use his profile to highlight human rights issues and counter the "propaganda value" of this week's Saudi International, according to Amnesty International.
AI UK's director Kate Allen said. "We haven't called on golfers to pull out of the Royal Greens event and it's not for us to say who should be playing in these tournaments or whether countries like Saudi Arabia should be hosting them".

Just the other day, a rumor began circulating that China Electronics is "considering a bid" for Marvell's mobile chip division. Then, shortly thereafter, MKM Partners published an analysis intended to illustrate why Intel buying Marvell's mobile and wireless business would be beneficial to both companies.
However, I'd like to counter that argument to show why such a deal is not only extremely unlikely to happen, but that Intel wouldn't actually gain much from it (though I believe Marvell would be better for it).
Does Marvell have anything Intel needs technologically? Marvell is a vendor of very low-cost mobile system-on-chip products. Its highest-end modem technology is, in my view, at least a generation behind what Intel is offering with XMM 7260 in terms of transfer speeds. Further, Marvell's applications processors are generally nothing special from a performance perspective, offering similar performance to just about every other value-focused ARM licensee.
In other words, at the system-on-chip level, just about any technology that Marvell can bring to the table, Intel already has competent in-house efforts for. I expect that when Intel launches its SoFIA 3G/SoFIA LTE chips later this year, this will become more apparent to investors and industry analysts.
This doesn't work from a business perspective, eitherAs I said before, Marvell plays in the low end of the mobile system-on-chip market. This is a market that Intel stated that it plans to back out of with its own internally designed system-on-chip products. The company also signaled that would instead focus on working with third-parties to integrate key Intel-designed IP into chips aimed at this market segment.
Where, then, would Marvell's chip unit fit into this strategy? Spreadtrum is already a far larger player in the mobile chip market than Marvell is, according to Strategy Analytics, and Marvell doesn't bring anything to the table for higher-end mobile applications processors, where Intel has signaled that it will continue investing organically.
About Marvell wanting to exit this business ...The curious thing here is just how violently Marvell's stock price moved up upon the mere rumor that it would be exiting the mobile chip business. Even though it is a high revenue growth business, Marvell is likely losing money in the business.
Indeed, when questioned by John Pitzer of Credit Suisse about how close the company is to breakeven, and what kind of market share it would need in order to have a profitable business, Marvell's Sukhi Nagesh had a very interesting response.
Think about this one for a moment. Marvell claims that in order to be "very profitable on a net operating basis" (whatever "very profitable" means), it needs to have 15-20% market share of what appears to be the cellular chip market. To put this into perspective, according to Strategy Analytics' various reports, the smartphone applications processor market should be about a $20 billion market in 2014.
Now, in the third quarter of 2014, Strategy Analytics reports that Qualcomm took 51% revenue share in this market, followed by Apple with 14% share, and MediaTek with 13% share. This implies 22% left for everybody else, including Samsung (which has sizable captive demand), Spreadtrum (which has a strong presence in the China market), HiSilicon (which also has sizable captive demand in Huawei handsets), Marvell, and others.
Getting to 15-20% of the total smartphone applications processor market (or even 15-20% of the merchant smartphone applications processor market) seems like a very tall order. While I don't know if the rumors that Marvell is shopping this business around are true or not, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it were.
However, if it is, and if it manages to find a buyer, I very seriously doubt that it will be Intel.
The article Intel Corporation Likely Wont Buy Marvell Technology Group Ltd.s Mobile Chip Business originally appeared on Fool.com.

Q: Can user specify Vault's policies while creating his token from github? So currently learning Vault by Hashicorp and I am trying to understand the concept of authentication using GitHub Tokens. While creating a token in GitHub, one can specify policies to that token and I was wondering if those have any effect on Vault's policies assigned to that user since operator create policies and map them at the first place?
Thanks in advance.

A: When you create a GitHub user on Vault, you can assign to him a Vault policy. That policy is the only one that is assigned to that user, and GitHub policies are the same of the Vault ones. The full procedure is:

*

*Create a GitHub user in Vault

*Assign him a Vault policy, previously written.

*The user authenticate in Vault and got a token with the policy assigned.

The GitHub users are separated from the default Vault users, so if you assigne a Vault policy to a GitHub user it has no effect to other Vault users.
Hope this help

MADISON – The University of Wisconsin-Madison continues to be the top school in the country for producing Peace Corps volunteers.
It's the third year in a row that the University of Wisconsin-Madison has sent more graduates than any other U.S. university to serve in the volunteer program, the Wisconsin State Journal reported. The school sent 75 graduates this year to provide technical assistance to those in need in other countries.
About 3,300 UW-Madison alumni have served as Peace Corps volunteers since the program was founded in 1961.

UW-Madison senior Michael Horner-Ibler plans to join the ranks of volunteers in June. He's set to volunteer in Panama, where he'll work on public health and water sanitation projects.
Horner-Ibler said his family is supportive of the decision, and his older brother recently returned from a Peace Corps rotation in the West African country of Togo.
Horner-Ibler said he's nervous about his full immersion into the Spanish language but "excited to be a part of a new culture," he said. "And be warm. I'm excited to be warm."
Jody Olsen, director of the Peace Corps, visited the Madison campus last fall to recognize the school for its volunteer recruiting efforts. Olsen lauded the university for its international faculty and for ranking second in the country for semester-long study abroad participation.
Roughly 16 percent of UW-Madison's tenured or tenure-track faculty members in 2017 were born outside of the U.S., which brings a global teaching perspective, Olsen said.
She also praised the school for awarding many bachelor's degrees in foreign languages, literatures and linguistics.
"These are examples of how the university says we believe in this work," Olsen said in an interview with the newspaper last fall. "And when you've got a university that is walking the walk, so to speak, it makes it relatively easy when we talk about Peace Corps for people to say 'I've got a chance.' They are more comfortable when they hear the word 'Peace Corps.'"

Q: Custom Control Dependency Property Binding to Property Just playing around with different types of bindings and having a property binding a Dependency Property of my custom control to another property.
XAML:
<UserControl x:Class="BrickBreaker.Brick"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="20" d:DesignWidth="50"  >
<Rectangle Width="50" Height="20" RadiusX="3" RadiusY="3" Stroke="Black" Fill="{Binding BrickFill, Mode=TwoWay}" />

Code Behind:
public partial class Brick : UserControl
{
    public Brick()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

    }

    public Brush BrickFill
    {
        get { return (Brush)GetValue(BrickFillProperty); }
        set { SetValue(BrickFillProperty, value); }
    }

    // Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for BrickFill.  This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
    public static readonly DependencyProperty BrickFillProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("BrickFill", typeof(Brush), typeof(Brick), null);

}

Implemenation In MainWindow.xaml
<UserControl x:Class="BrickBreaker.MainPage"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" xmlns:BrickBreaker="clr-namespace:BrickBreaker" mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignHeight="300" d:DesignWidth="400">

<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
    <BrickBreaker:Brick Margin="100,100,0,0" BrickFill="Azure"/>
</Grid>

Basically I want to bind the Rectangles Fill Property to the Dependency Property in the code behind.
Thanks.
Steve

A: What is the exact problem? Set DataContext of UserControl to code-behind, such as:
<UserControl DataContext="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}">

</UserControl>

A: Missing this: DataContext="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}"
