HUD SECRETARY BEN CARSON TOURS OPPORTUNITY ZONE PROJECT IN CLEVELAND
CLEVELAND, OH - U.S. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson today toured an Opportunity Zone redevelopment project in Cleveland. Funded with Qualified Opportunity Funds and additional Opportunity Zone investments, The Tappan is a mixed-use, mixed-income apartment building with a 2,000-square foot bakery occupied by a first-time business owner.

The 95-unit apartment building has set aside 60 percent of units as workforce housing. The redevelopment has created 100 construction jobs and will create up to 25 new permanent jobs. The Tappan was featured in the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council's Best Practices Report to the President.
"Opportunity Zones are a powerful initiative to support the forgotten men and women of America by uplifting distressed communities," said Secretary Ben Carson. "Today, I visited The Tappan in Cleveland, which has led the way with an impressive Opportunity Zone project, not long after the incentive was created. I appreciate their commitment to providing workforce housing so teachers, nurses, police officers and firefighters can afford to live near the communities they serve."
The White House Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) last month delivered a Progress Report on President Trump's Opportunity Zones initiative to White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council Chairman Dr. Ben Carson, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The CEA estimates that Opportunity Zones have already generated approximately half a million jobs, attracted $75 billion in capital investments, and are on track to reduce the poverty rate in Opportunity Zones by 11 percent - lifting 1,000,000 people out of poverty.
President Trump signed the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, creating Opportunity Zones to stimulate long-term investments in low-income communities. Opportunity Zones offer capital gains tax relief to those who invest in these distressed areas. This initiative is anticipated to spur $100 billion in private capital investment in Opportunity Zones. Incentivizing investment in low-income communities fosters economic revitalization, job creation, and promotes sustainable economic growth across the nation, especially in communities HUD serves. Read more about Opportunity Zones.
Opportunity Zones are a powerful vehicle for bringing economic growth and job creation to the American communities that need it the most. On average, the median family income in an Opportunity Zone is 37 percent below its respective state median. Overall, more than 8,700 communities in all 50 States, Washington D.C., and five U.S. territories have been designated as Opportunity Zones. Nearly 35 million Americans live in communities designated as Opportunity Zones.
HUD's mission is to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all.

HUD COVID-19 Resources and Fact Sheets


So far, the CES 2017 has been greater than expected, given the fact that there are products that proved to be an incredible surprise that would probably achieve a major position in the market this year. One of these products is the ZTE Blade V8 Pro, an incredible budget smartphone that would definitely compete among the most outstanding devices of its kind, and could become the worst nightmare of the next OnePlus and the Honor 6X. In order to explain its greatness, here´s a little review about this magnificent handset.
This is probably one of the most incredible details about this budget smartphone, given the fact that it sports a dual-rear camera of 13 MP both of them, which ZTE assures that comes with blazing fast shutters speeds that provide an outstanding experience, given the fact that only most outstanding flagships sports dual-rear cameras. In fact, one of these is a monochrome camera that shoots in black and white.
The front of the ZTE Blade V8 sports an 8MP camera, and the rear camera includes Live photo, face detection, Auto HDR, Sport mode, Panorama, and many other effects including the Bokeh, which is something incredible considering that having this feature in a $230 phone is like having the Touch Bar in a $300 laptop.
Believe it or not, the ZTE Blade V8 Pro wears a 2.0GHz, eight-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor, which seem extremely surprising coming from a budget smartphone, given the fact that this kind of processor is usually used by the most outstanding brands. Also, another great the ZTE Blade V8 Pro is that it has 3GB RAM with 32GB of internal storage, and an expandable memory up to 128 GB.
Also, this mobile device wears a 3,140mAh battery with Quick Charge 2.0 technology, giving you the opportunity of 24 hours talk time and 552 hours of standby time, something that you won´t find in many budget smartphones. In fact, the recently unveiled Huawei 6X, which is another extraordinary mobile device of this kind, only offers a 3000mAh battery.
One of the more interesting aspects of the ZTE Blade V8 Pro is its display, considering that is 5.5-inch with a 1,920x1,080-pixel resolution, which is practically the standard dimensions for a mobile device that wants to conquer the market and make the customers enjoy. In fact, the display is FULL HD LCD with 401 ppi pixel density and is covered with 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass.
On the other hand, the ZTE Blade V8 Pro sizes 6.14x3.03x0.36 inches (156x77x9.1 mm) and comes with a front home button mounted fingerprint scanner, a 3.5mm headphone jack and a USB Type-C port for charging and data transfer. Also, this mobile device feature Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, GPSA, A-GPS and Bluetooth 4.2, which turns it into an outstanding smartphone which $230 price doesn't seem real.
Furthermore, the ZTE Blade V8 Pro is running Android Marshmallow out of the box, which is something extraordinary for a budget phone. In short, we´re talking about a mobile device that has all the characteristics of a flagship killer, and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if it ends up being considered as one of the greatest Chinese smartphones in 2017.
ZTE's Blade Z Max is a rare smartphone that combines all the excellent features and specs at an affordable rate.
ZTE recommends that the Axon 7 Mini have at least a 30 percent charge before you begin to download the Nougat update.
ZTE has introduced the Gigabit Phone, the world's first 5G-ready and one of the first smartphones to use Qualcomm's latest flagship Snapdragon 835.
Mobile World Congress is only a few days away and there is so much to look forward to. Some of the leading players in the mobile industry, such as Sony, Nokia, Motorola & ZTE, are expected to make a splash.
ZTE Kills 'Hawkeye' Smartphone, A More Powerful Device Coming?
ZTE has pulled out the plug for the Hawkeye after receiving feedback from consumers about its unsatisfying midrange specs. Is the company planning to make a better version?
ZTE decided to let go of their smartphone project that could have given people a hands-free set of features like eye-tracking and sticky phone.

AC First Carrier To Earn IATA Live Animal Transport Certification
Air Canada Cargo has become the first airline to receive a new global certification for the safe transport of live animals.
IATA awarded Air Canada Cargo with the Center of Excellence for Independent Validators for Live Animals Logistics (CEIV Live Animals) Certification following successful completion of the verification process in its Montreal facility. This certification reinforces that Air Canada Cargo is operating to the highest standards in the transport of live animals, be it exotic species or household pets.
"Air Canada Cargo is a trusted carrier for thousands of animal shippers worldwide and has followed the IATA Live Animal Regulations (LAR)," said Tim Strauss, VP, Cargo. "We expertly handle complex shipments, from rescued dogs, endangered animals travelling between zoos for conservation efforts and of course family pets."
IATA's Senior Vice President, Airport, Passenger, Cargo and Security Nick Careen said: "I want to congratulate Air Canada for their great leadership in achieving the first CEIV Live Animals certification in the world. Proper handling and transporting of live animals is a very important aspect of the cargo supply chain, with many unique complexities."
IATA launched the new standardized global certification program to improve and reinforce the safety and welfare of animals travelling by air earlier this year. Air Canada Cargo was chosen to undergo a pilot for the program.
Over several months from January to July, as part of a thorough audit, IATA's specialists reviewed Air Canada Cargo's live animal transport policies and procedures in its Montreal facility. Compliance with Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) was fully reviewed as was compliance with protocols like the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

Legal Population of America
After the evacuation from Afghanistan in August 2021, an NPR/Ipsos poll (±4.6%) found that 69% of Americans supported the resettlement of Afghans who had collaborated with the United States in the United States, with 65% supporting Afghans who "fear oppression or persecution by the Taliban." [229] There was less support for other refugees: 59 percent for those "fleeing civil wars and violence in Africa," 56 percent for those "fleeing violence in Syria and Libya," and 56 percent for "Central Americans fleeing violence and poverty." 57% supported the Trump-era "stay in Mexico" policy and 55% supported legalizing the status of those who were illegally brought to the US as children (as proposed in the DREAM Act). The following reports include estimates of the population of lawful permanent residents (LPRs) living in the United States as of January 1 of this year. LPRs, also known as "green card" holders, are immigrants who have been granted lawful permanent residency in the U.S. but have not yet become U.S. citizens. Estimates of the total LPR population and the LPR population eligible for naturalization are presented in tabular form by country of birth, country of residence and year of LPR attainment. Data for the estimates were obtained primarily from the administrative records of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services of the Department of Homeland Security. Note: Health insurance coverage is calculated only for the non-institutionalized civilian population.
Since some people have private health insurance and statutory health insurance at the same time, estimates of people with statutory health insurance and people with public health insurance may overlap. The sum of these rates may therefore be greater than the total share of insured persons with health insurance. 2 We can estimate the impact of including institutionalization in the denominator by examining the Census Bureau`s annual American Community Survey (ACS), which covers the entire population. In 2019, immigrants (legal and illegal) accounted for 13.64% of the total ACS population when institutionalized were included, and 13.72% when they were not included, less than a tenth of a percentage point difference. The distribution of immigrants among institutionalized and non-institutionalized year-over-year changes changes almost unchanged at all, so the share of the foreign-born population in November 2021 would have been about one-tenth of 1% lower if the entire population had been used as the denominator. Between 1921 and 1965, measures such as the national origin formula limited immigration and naturalization opportunities for people from regions outside Western Europe. Exclusion laws enacted as early as the 1880s generally prohibited or severely restricted immigration from Asia, and quota laws enacted in the 1920s restricted immigration to Eastern Europe. The civil rights movement led to the replacement of these ethnic quotas[7] with country-specific restrictions on family-funded, employment-based preferential visas. [8] Since then, the number of first-generation immigrants living in the United States has quadrupled. [9] [10] The total number of immigrants has stagnated in recent years, especially since the election of Donald Trump and the COVID-19 pandemic. Census estimates show 45.3 million foreign-born residents in March 2018 and 45.4 million in September 2021; The smallest 3-year increase in decades. [11] In 2018, most immigrants lived in only 20 major metropolitan areas, with the largest populations in the New York, Los Angeles and Miami metropolitan areas.
These 20 largest metropolitan areas were home to 28.7 million immigrants, or 64% of the country`s total foreign-born population. Most of the country`s unauthorized immigrant population also lived in these large metropolitan areas. The foreign-born population remained broadly unchanged between 2018 and 2019, with an increase of 204,000 people, a growth of less than 0.5%. This matches the 203,000 increase from 2017 to 2018 and is well below the increase of about 787,000 – a growth of nearly 2% – between 2016 and 2017. The slowdown in immigrant population growth in recent years is reflected in the slowdown in overall U.S. population growth since 2015. Immigration has been a major source of population growth and cultural change throughout U.S. history. In absolute terms, the United States has a larger immigrant population than any other country in the world, with 47 million immigrants in 2015.
[1] This represents 19.1% of the 244 million international migrants worldwide and 14.4% of the population of the United States. Other countries have a higher proportion of immigrants, such as Australia with 30%[2] and Canada with 21.9%. [3] Figure 2 shows a monthly comparison of the size of the immigrant population from year to year. The impact of Covid-19 restrictions will be clearly visible from the first half of 2020. The largest monthly decline from March 2019 to March 2020 was 1.6 million. But the immigrant population fell to its smallest size of 43.8 million in August 2020. Compared to the same month in previous years, Figure 2 shows that the immigrant population began to grow in December 2020 and continued to increase each month compared to the same month of the previous year until November 2021. More than 44.9 million immigrants lived in the United States in 2019, the all-time high since census records were kept. In 2019, immigrants accounted for 13.7 percent of the total U.S. population, a figure lower than the record of 14.8 percent reached in 1890. The foreign-born U.S.
resident population reached a record 44.8 million, or 13.7 percent of the U.S. population, in 2018. This immigrant population has more than quadrupled since the 1960s, when the Immigration and Naturalization Act came into force in 1965. Although growth has slowed in recent years, the number of immigrants living in the United States is expected to nearly double by 2065. The regions of origin of immigrants residing in the United States have changed dramatically since the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965 was passed. In 1960, 84% of immigrants living in the United States were born in Europe, Canada or other North American countries, while only 6% came from Mexico, 4% from Asia, 3% from the rest of Latin America and 3% from other regions. The origins of immigrants differ considerably today, with European, Canadian and other North American immigrants representing only a small proportion of the foreign-born population (13%) in 2018. Asians (28%), Mexicans (25%) and other Latin Americans (25%) each make up about a quarter of the U.S. immigrant population, followed by 9% born in another region. Numbers in historical context. Immigration has risen and fallen throughout American history, and the number of immigrants in the country and their share of the population reflect this fact. Figure 5 shows the number of immigrants living in Canada and their share of the total population from 1900 to 2021.
It also shows the number of immigrants and their share of the population to 2060 based on Census Bureau projections. After examining the monthly CFS for 1994, when the foreign-born were regularly identified, the American Community Survey (ACS), which dates back to 2000, when it began, and ten-year census data dating back to 1850, when the foreign-born were first identified, we concluded that the 46.2 million immigrants in November 2021 of the CFS constitute the largest number of immigrants. In a census or poll conducted on January 1, 2017, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order temporarily suspending the entry into the United States of nationals of seven Muslim-majority countries. It was replaced by another decree in March 2017 and a presidential proclamation in September 2017, with various changes in the list of countries and exceptions. [67] The orders were temporarily stayed by federal courts, but were later authorized by the Supreme Court pending a final decision on their legality. [68] Another executive order provided for the immediate construction of a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, the hiring of 5,000 new border patrol agents and 10,000 new immigration officers, and penalties for federal funds for sanctuary cities. [69] The age structure of the U.S. immigrant population has changed with changes in source regions.
While the largest group of immigrants shifted from Europeans, Canadians and other North Americans to Mexicans, the largest age group increased from 65 to 69 in 1960 to 40 to 44 in 2018. Today, European, Canadian and other North American immigrants tend to be older, with an average age of 53 and 54, respectively, in 2018. Mexican immigrants are among the youngest, with an average age of 43. The age distribution of the U.S.-born population has also changed.

What to Know About Legal Videography Rates Today
The deposition format is one of the key factors affecting legal videography rates. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when courtrooms closed and court proceedings halted, the popularity of remote depositions spiked. So did the demand for certified videographers who made them possible.
Even though remote depositions have been around for quite some time, legal professionals mostly favored in-person interactions over video. However, after the pandemic, 20% of attorneys preferred remote depositions over in-person or hybrid options.
As the pandemic started to subside, in-person depositions made a comeback. However, remote depositions managed to hold on to their popularity. The convenience and efficiency of this cost-effective deposition method helped attorneys streamline litigation and achieve faster and more effective results. Meanwhile, the rising demand for remote depositions affected legal videographer rates.
What Affects Traditional Legal Videographer Rates?
Thanks to their unique skillset, certified videographers have always been in demand for different aspects of litigation. Since their services are often compulsory, attorneys are always looking to find cost-effective options for their clients. Knowing the key factors that define legal videographer rates can often help you make the right choice.
All legal videographers need to pass a Certified Legal Video Specialist (CLVS) exam to offer their services in the legal industry. However, getting an education and passing the exam usually doesn't mean that a videographer can do their job perfectly. For that, they need experience.
Experienced videographers work faster and save you time while charging more for their work. A flat fee for a beginner is usually different from a flat fee charged by a true expert.
Overtime Fees
If the deposition runs too long, it keeps the videographer from completing other projects on the same day. That's why these experts tend to charge overtime fees. These fees are usually set on an hourly basis. If the deposition runs 20 minutes late, you may have to pay for an extra hour. The size of the overtime fee also depends on the videographer's experience and availability.
Videographers often need to travel to record depositions. If the deposition takes place several hours away from a videographer's home or office, they may charge a travel fee. Depending on the videographer's preferences, the rates may vary. These professionals may charge travel fees in two different ways:
Mileage – you pay a fixed fee for each mile traveled up to a certain distance. For example, you could be paying $1 for each mile traveled within a 20-mile radius and another $2 for each mile beyond 20. Beginners may set lower travel fees or waive them altogether.
Hours – you have to pay a preset fee for each hour traveled. Videographers who live in high-traffic areas often charge hourly travel fees.
To save on videographer fees, many lawyers are searching for local professionals. This factor makes it harder to match the schedules of court reporters, witnesses, and videographers. Eventually, this causes delays.
When it comes to remote depositions, the cost of all-inclusive deposition services is significantly lower. That's why the virtual deposition process is becoming an integral part of the modern legal system.
The True Need for Remote Depositions
The cost-efficiency and convenience of remote depositions made them an effective tool that legal professionals use to streamline litigation. Even in the post-pandemic world, the problem with distance remains. Travel costs and videographer fees are a substantial part of legal expenses for attorneys and their clients.
The problem is especially acute with expert witnesses, who charge high fees for testimonies. Adding travel costs to the list of expenses can turn expert witness deposition into a serious toll on the client's budget.
The COVID-19 pandemic gave a push to something that was long in the making – virtual testimonies. It could have taken a few more years for them to become mainstream in the American court system. The pandemic expedited the process. Remote depositions solve a variety of additional issues that legal professionals face when handling complex cases.
Court Reporter Shortage
The lack of court reporters is affecting the entire legal industry. The average age of court reporters is higher than in any other law-related occupation. As a result, the retirement rate is higher as well. Coupled with low enrollment rates in programs for this profession, this leads to a significant shortage.
Besides a high demand for court reporters in the courtroom, their skill sets have value outside the legal system. Court reporters can provide transcripts of conferences, seminars, and videos for sports and medical industries. They are also in demand for politics and business needs. To gain court reporter time, lawyers are often competing against other industries.
The shortage of these experts has the potential to cripple the legal system by delaying court proceedings. That's where remote depositions come in. By cutting travel out of the picture, court reporters can work on multiple assignments daily.

Lack of Expert Witnesses in a Particular Location
Many litigators face the tough choice of either paying a significant amount for expert witness travel or choosing a local witness with insufficient expertise or credentials. Since these witnesses can make or break the case, clients often bear a significant addition to legal expenses.
Meanwhile, not all expert witnesses are ready to travel to a remote location in order to provide testimony. They are usually busy with their day jobs, which require full dedication. Depositions come with a high inconvenience factor. Legal testimony keeps the expert witness from handling regular tasks. This comes with financial implications that turn into higher fees.
Virtual depositions provide an opportunity to choose an expert witness based on their ability to contribute to the case. A large selection of these witnesses can benefit the quality of case presentation and outcome.
Delayed Proceedings
Deposition-related travel issues aren't just costly, they are time-consuming. In many cases (e.g., medical malpractice cases) speed is essential to the client. When busy expert witnesses have to travel to another state to testify, the client faces significant delays.
Trying to juggle the schedules of attorneys, expert witnesses, and court reporters to advance litigation is a complex task. By taking the travel factor out of the picture, it's possible to expedite the processes significantly.
Preparing a transcript of the deposition can take a court reporter twice as much time as the deposition itself. Meanwhile, the average time it takes for an attorney to gain access to a deposition transcript is around seven to ten days. In some cases, it can take weeks.
Today, it's possible to arrange a remote deposition on a dedicated platform that uses top technologies to ensure accuracy, speed, and accessibility. Legal professionals gain access to the deposition within minutes instead of weeks.
Remote depositions conducted by a court reporter and a legal videographer on a dedicated platform usually take less than 24 hours to become accessible for the litigation team to use. If needed, a certified transcript can be ordered afterward.
Related: Pros and Cons to Remote Depositions
Legal Videographer Rates for Remote Depositions
Traditional legal videographer rates can be high. When combined with travel expenses and scheduling issues, the deposition can end up costing thousands of dollars. Since many legal clients can't handle the costs, the lack of the necessary depositions hurts the case.
Remote depositions revolutionized the deposition process and minimized its cost. This made it possible for lawyers to hire the right witnesses, expedite cases, and achieve better results in the courtroom. According to Bloomberg Law, the cost of remote deposition, including travel expenses, can be cut by up to a third over the cost of traditional depositions.
When hiring different specialists to conduct a remote deposition, the price reduction is obvious but not as significant as with all-inclusive services. Today, remote deposition services are gaining popularity. However, many service providers still require the attorney to make a number of time-consuming arrangements.
The best way to cut costs and ensure the lowest rates is to find an all-inclusive remote deposition platform with legal-standard security and features that offer such options as
Court reporter services
Videographer services
Timestamped witness video capture
Customizable video layout
Instant video uploading
Certified transcript (if necessary)
With the right web-based platform, an attorney needs only a desktop or mobile device, a webcam, and a microphone. This time-saving option allows legal professionals to focus on finding witnesses and building strong cases instead of searching for videographers and juggling court reporter schedules.
Cutting Deposition Costs with a Remote Deposition Platform
In the legal world, time is money. That's why, even after the pandemic, remote depositions are cementing themselves into the legal system. By opting for virtual testimonies that include a court reporter and HD witness video, you are cutting costs, saving time, reducing pressure on the witness, improving accessibility to deposition materials, and much more.
Remote Legal is a provider of a unique all-inclusive remote deposition platform built for the legal industry, with all the special features needed for an effective and efficient remote deposition, including legal industry-standard security.

CEFC provides debt finance for Australia's first wind+solar+storage array
The Clean Energy Finance Corporation will provide $94 million as the sole debt financier of Australia's first co-developed wind, solar and storage array. The 60 MW Kennedy Energy Park is being developed by Windlab and Eurus Energy and will combine 43.2 MW in wind capacity, 15 MW of solar PV, and 2 MWh of battery storage.
October 19, 2017 Jonathan Gifford
The Kennedy Energy Park will prove an important proof-of-concept for hybrid arrays.
CEFC
The combining of wind and PV generation sources and coupling it with large scale battery storage can deliver reliable renewable energy supply and help balance high levels of intermittent generation on Australia's electricity network. The deployment of these innovative hybrid arrays has taken a major step forward, with CEFC committing to finance a landmark project in Queensland.
The CEFC will provide $94 million in debt finance to the $170 million Kennedy Energy Park, in central north Queensland. The CEFC reports that financing two generation sources and the battery system at the one site, and in one integrated project, was "a complex undertaking". The project is the first of its kind in Australia.
"As the sole debt financier for this project, our goal was to demonstrate the bankability of large-scale, integrated hybrid renewable energy projects for the future," said CEFC Wind Sector Lead Andrew Gardner. "We expect such projects to become an increasingly important part of Australia's electricity system, with complementary battery storage addressing the intermittency of wind and solar generation to support grid stability."
Such hybrid solutions are likely to become much common in the Australian renewable marketplace. Signs are that both the Queensland and Victorian government large scale renewable tenders are looking to promote the integration of renewable sources with battery storage, increasing the stability of electricity supply and local grids while at the same time delivering emission-free generation capacity.
Globally, the trend to couple wind and solar alongside battery storage is gaining momentum. UK developer Anesco is rolling out a large scale PV+storage model in Britain, in a series of projects that is breathing life into the country's PV power plant sector.
Meeting the needs of widespread communities in regional and remote Queensland, the Kennedy Energy Park will supply power to towns across a vast 500-kilometre range. The park will supply remote communities from Julia Creek to Charters Towers in Queensland, the developers report. At the same time, it will help balance the large amounts of rooftop PV being installed in the sprawling district.
"Windlab identified the Kennedy site after confirming its high levels of solar irradiance and world class complementary wind resource," said CEFC Project lead Bobby Vidakovic. "The natural benefits of the site will deliver high levels of solar energy throughout the day and strong wind generation in the evenings, creating a reliable generation profile around the clock."
"The addition of the battery component will provide increased grid stability, allowing local communities to benefit from cheaper, cleaner electricity closer to the point of generation, with the added benefit of relieving demand on long transmission lines," Vidakovic continued.
Windlab is commercializing CSIRO technology that accurately assesses wind generation resources. The CEFC has previously provided $8 million to Windlab to assist it make the transition from project developer, to Independent Power Producer and asset owner.
"Successfully completing this project will also help unlock the enormous potential of Big Kennedy, the 1,200MW wind resource 80 kilometres north of Kennedy Energy Park that will be critical in balancing the large amounts of solar generation that is being added to the Queensland network," said Canberra-based Windlab CEO Roger Price. He described the development of the project as "enormously challenging yet important."
Eurus Energy has taken a 50% equity stake in the Kennedy Energy Park.
Twelve months ago, the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) committed to providing an $18 million grant for the project.
Where wind and solar resources are complimentary the co-development of projects can benefit from utilizing the same grid connection, significantly decreasing overall costs. It also means that more generation capacity can be added to one site, for the same community engagement cost.
A number of large European utilities, such as Vattenfall, are currently working towards adding solar PV capacity to their existing wind arrays. Chinese wind manufacturer and developer Goldwind is exploring similar projects in Australia and is currently installing its 20 MW White Rock array.
With the further addition of battery storage, the integration of the renewable power into the grid is also assisted. Furthermore, the battery system can also be used to provide auxiliary services to the grid, such as primary reserve control – otherwise known as frequency regulation.
"As the cost of producing electricity from renewable resources continues its rapid downward trajectory, we can expect investors to be increasingly attracted to large-scale hybrid renewable energy projects as the next wave of investment and technological innovation," concluded the CEFC's Gardner.

It originally played songs from the 50s, 60s, & 70s, with some current songs thrown in. By the late 80s, the current songs were dropped from the format, and the station became a pure Oldies station. The station was a market leader. That lasted until 2005, when the station flipped to Adult Contemporary "Jack FM." New York hated the station. Jack FM fell to below 20th place in the ratings. By 2007, WCBS-FM was brought back to New York, but this version played music from the mid 60s to the mid 80s. As time marched on, WCBS-FM dropped the 60s music, and started focusing on the 1980s.
WCBS-FM had some legendary names who worked there. Jack Spector, Joe O'Brien, Norm N Nite, Don K Reed, Harry Harrison, Ron Lundy, Dan Ingram, Joe McCoy, Bobby Jay, and the voice heard on this aircheck, Dick Heatherton.
Before working at WCBS-FM, Dick spent many years at WFIL Philadelphia, and WPOP Hartford. I worked with Dick in the late 90s at WBBF-FM in Rochester, and he was the nicest guy, as well as a great on air talent.
This aircheck also features WCBS-FM News with Norm Stevens. -Ellis

Our topic for November was BIRDS. We put a bird table outside and took it in turn to fill it up regularly for the hungry birds. On our daily morning walk we did a little bird spotting. We made bird feeders from lard, dried fruit, nuts and bird feed. It was a messy job but we enjoyed it and so did the birds. We enjoyed our bird seed and feathers sensory bin. We did some lovely bird art with feathers and bird seed. We read some books about birds and our rhyme this month was about finding feathers and putting them on our hat!

In the past, door to door has been seen as a blanket or saturation coverage medium due to the low cost of print & delivery when compared to direct mail, radio or TV advert production however the industry is becoming ever more sophisticated and it is now possible to 'categorise' a variety of characteristics; Age, affluence, home ownership, type of house etc to gain a better response by understanding where your prospects might live. This increases the 'hit rate' for the same cost in production & distribution so improving the Return on Investment [ROI]. One of the great advantages of door to door distribution is its flexibility to test different areas, communication copy or messages. This is made even easier by our sub sector mapping system. Using this approach, results can be gained to determine the best areas, most responsive demographics or to produce maximum ROI. If you are in any doubt as to what your customer profile is, we would be happy to make some observations & suggestions from your existing customer base.
Great .. you know who your prospects are & where to find them .. Now you have to work out how to communicate your message to them.
Copy is always important. It is the words that encourage a response after the design has caught the eye. Over 80% flick through leaflets that have come through the door, what the design of a leaflet must do is to catch the attention & say enough to get your prospect to call you. The most frequent mistake is to try to 'sell' from the leaflet ?.. unless it is for a takeaway or similar very low value, a high volume item then just provide enough to get the response & remember that if the flyer doesn't have an impact or there is too much to read, it won't be it will be consigned to the waste paper bin.
You might be a whizz with Photoshop or even Publisher .. if so then great you can design your own leaflets & brochure however if not, then it is always best to get a professional to do it. From crop marks [the lines put into the design so the printer can cut the leaflet exactly] to the right amount of bleed [the design overlap towards the edge of the page] there are many things to consider. If you're planning to do it yourself then please download our copy and design hints here .
It is also important that the designer understands what it required of a leaflet. It might sound simple but most graphic designers are artists, they create attractive & beautiful designs ... they don't have direct marketing degrees so it is very important that the essentials of good marketing principles are applied. As one final plea, if you are to do it yourself then please, provide the designer with the 'copy' or 'text' for your flyer - do not leave then to create the words for your flyer. If you are unable to do write it yourself, please engage the services of a copywriter.
Marketing Agencies will usually budget approx. 30% of the campaign cost on design .. for larger runs this may be unnecessary but when starting off, this might not be enough. Given the cost of printing, especially full colour and the cost of distribution, it is a false economy not to have a well designed leaflet. The good news is once the design has been made, you will be able to reprint without any further cost until you come to redesign and even then the framework has been designed so your designer will not need to start from scratch.
If this all seems to be too much .. just drop us a line and we can arrange for one of our designers to contact you. It helps if you give us as much information about the project and what you wish to achieve so we can match you up with an appropriate member of the team.
It is very important to consider what you want your prospect to do. Is it to log onto a website, if so make sure the site is up & running before the distribution is scheduled. If they are to visit a shop or exhibition, how about some sort of coupon or voucher with a code to identify which campaign & ideally name & address details for analysis & future activity. If it is to be by phone, consider an 0800 number to boost response & maybe a live, answering service to minimise the abandoned calls. If it is to be by post, then consider a Responses Services License for either Freepost or Business Reply. It would also be advisable to check the thickness of the material to ensure it meets Royal Mail guidelines.
Once what is to be said, how you are going to encourage action & the design has been decided, the next stage is to produce the material to be delivered. Plenty of time should be allowed for this stage if a litho press is to be used. Internally we have digital duplicators & copy printers available for quick, inexpensive and simple flyers however we also have great relationships with litho & full colour printers so are set up to get you the best deal. Another important consideration is the 'finishing' of the flyer, this is the jargon for post print activities such as punching or die cutting [using a template to cut out an irregular shaped leaflet], folding ie converting a flat sheet into a 2 page or tri fold brochure. If you are having anything more than a usual flat print, make sure that both you & the finisher understand what each party is responsible for ? One client, a Estate Agent, ordered 20,000 A4 wallets & then realised they were all unfolded. Cost to manually fold was in the order of £2,400 !!!
Once printed, the material is either delivered to us or collected direct from the printer to avoid any double handling on your part. On arrival the consignment is checked, diagnosis a confirmation of receipt together with the number received is dispatched. The leaflets are bundled up, matched with the other leaflets they are sharing with, if appropriate, and distributed to the delivery agents. Actual delivery will occur sometime after this point. We always make every endeavour to distribute the material speedily, accurately & responsibly however by virtue of the fact that the work is carried on outside, weather conditions do provide an unpredictable element to the times. If the weather is icy or snow distribution becomes much slower & in some cases has to be abandoned completely if it poses risk of injury to the deliverers. If the weather is wet it is usual not to deliver, not just due to the discomfort of the usual deliverers but also most of the materials delivered are paper based & don't respond well or look good if sodden & scuffed, reducing response.
No matter how successful lead generation is, if those prospects aren't converted then the campaign won't be a success. It is surprising how much effort is made on producing the enquiries for them not to be followed up. If information packs are ready for dispatch it is not only easier but when the sales brochure arrives the morning after the call it shows the prospective customer you're efficient and gives you a better chance of getting the business. It is also good business practice to ask each new enquiry & customer where they got to hear of you as leaflets may hang around for some considerable time before the approach. They are also ideal to be passed to a friend, relative or work colleague so a flyer delivered in one part of the city can easily get to produce a sale in another part that hasn't been marketed.
Once the campaign has been completed it is essential that it is reviewed, if coupons are used collect them & maybe use a code to identify different wording or different flyers, tadalafil if the calls are entered onto the database, then to review how many, from which areas & what was the conversion rate enquiries : sales. If you would like help profiling the responses, we would be more than happy to do that & to make recommendations on where similar customers may be found. From this it can be easily seen what the return generated in relation to the sales, not forgetting that most businesses sell more than once to each customer so if the average for your business is 5 orders of £15, then each customer is worth £75 worth of business to you, even if they have only spent £15 so far ? and it is important to keep track of how you started off with customers, as further sales may be generated by them walking into the shop or you sending them a mailshot but these are still door to door generated leads.

Film After Joyce (essay collection)
Monday, June 24, 2019 - 8:26pm
Nathan Wallace, The Ohio State University / Layne Farmen, The University of Tulsa
The Soviet director Sergei Eisenstein initiated what has become a very long and multifaceted conversation about James Joyce in relation to film. He was the first director to contemplate an adaptation of Ulysses, for instance, and the only one to discuss such a project with the author himself. Although that adaptation project never came to fruition, Eisenstein was the first film theorist who used Ulysses and Finnegans Wake as reference points to describe how film worked and how it might continue to evolve in the future. He was also the first filmmaker to apply these concepts in practice.

Call for Chapter Proposals
Special Issue of Medical Humanities on "Global Health Humanities"
Monday, July 1, 2019 - 10:15pm
Narin Hassan and Jessica Howell
Call for proposals, special issue of Medical Humanities Contributions are invited for a special issue of the journal Medical Humanities on the topic "global health humanities." This proposed special issue is predicated on the assumption that, by examining different forms of human expression, the humanities offer necessary insight into the lived experience of global health issues. The following is a list of possible topics, but we welcome proposals for articles that address other aspects of global health humanities as well:
The Settings of Margaret Atwood
Louisa MacKay Demerjian
Margaret Atwood is a world-renowned Canadian writer. Her identity as a Canadian is important to her and is reflected in her work, especially her earlier work. However, she is a well-travelled person as well and her works don't all take place in Canada. Over the years, she has set her work in urban, suburban and rural locations around Canada but also in the Caribbean and, in The Handmaid's Tale, in the Boston area. This panel would look at Atwood's various settings. How does she use place to reflect or cause either the comfort or the alienation of her characters? Why did she choose to set her first dystopian novel in Cambridge rather than in her home city of Toronto?

Archives in 'Lusophone' Film
'Cinema and the World - Studies on Space and Cinema', Centre for Comparative Studies, University of Lisbon,
Archival practices in the 20th and early-21st century have been understood in a variety of ways. For some, "artists started to rely on the topos of the archive to express their unease about canonic systems for the production of knowledge" (Giannachi, 2016: 131). For others, a reviewing of the archive as a power structure and the blind spots, or silences, it produced was in order (Michel-Rolph Trouillot, 1995: 53). For others still, this 'archival turn' grew out of a fascination with historiography and with memory (Spieker, 2008: 26), characteristic of postmodern societies. Two main theoretical frameworks have been consistently called forth in contemporary studies of the archive.

Chesterton the Poet
Although often overlooked today, G. K. Chesterton's wide-ranging poetry has been praised by atheist Christopher Hitchens, novelist Graham Greene, and poet W. H. Auden.
March 3, 2015 Michael J. Lichens Uncategorized 1 Print
"A complete poem is one where an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found its words." — Robert Frost
In his otherwise disparaging review of Dr. Ian Ker's G. K. Chesterton: A Biography, the late atheist critic Christopher Hitchens noted that he and Ker were in agreement "on the high quality of Chesterton's poems." Hitchens had many unkind comments about a whole host of Catholic writers but on the subject of Chesterton's poetic works, he found within the rhymes "his magic faculty of being unforgettable."
This will come as a surprise for many, even as G. K. Chesterton's work has undergone something of a renaissance with practically all his work being brought back into print. However, few are aware of his poetry outside of his drinking poems and what W. H. Auden called "the best pure nonsense verse in English." Chesterton's poetry sold well in his own time and earned him praise, but even the great Bombastic Journalist thought of himself as "a very minor poet." So it is that few people today neither read much of his poetry nor are familiar enough with it to see the brilliance hiding beneath the careful rhymes and whimsical verse.
With the renewed interest in Chesterton and his work, we should not neglect the contribution he made to English verse, which is at times child-like as it explores the deep mysteries of faith and existence with the very heart of a child he was so praised for possessing. While his poetry might have seemed archaic compared to the great modernist poets of the twentieth century, his desire to express beauty and truth within a traditional rhyming and sometimes iambic form left a legacy of good and unforgettable poems that are worthy of study and memorization.
Wine, Water, and Song
The majority of those who have encountered Chesterton's poetry have most likely heard his drinking ballads as they are recited before or after a pub crawl. With the right cadence, these particular verses are a golden mean between traditional drinking songs and rowdy poetry. His most famous one is "The Rolling English Road," a poem against temperance societies and possible prohibition in England:
Before the Roman came to Rye or out to Severn strode,
The rolling English drunkard made the rolling English road.
A reeling road, a rolling road, that rambles round the shire,
And after him the parson ran, the sexton and the squire;
A merry road, a mazy road, and such as we did tread
The night we went to Birmingham by way of Beachy Head.
The rolling drunkard and road in this case is part of a theme underlying much of Chesterton's work: looking back on the English way of doing things in defense against what he saw as the rising tide of the cult of progressivism. Like many historians, Chesterton saw the pub and the pint as essential to the English soul as the ancient footpaths of central England. Even in something as simple as a pint of ale, the Chestertonian sees a highly traditional practice worth protecting and preserving.
This particular view of the pub as a citadel against modern errors was also echoed in "The Ballad of an Anti-Puritan":
The new world's wisest did surround
Me; and it pains me to record
I did not think their views profound,
Or their conclusions well assured;
The simple life I can't afford,
Besides, I do not like the grub —
I want a mash and sausage, `scored'—
Will someone take me to a pub?
The jovial tone of Chesterton obfuscates his desire for a more earthly life of drink and song, which he praises greatly throughout his poetic oeuvre, over and against the discussions and plans of society's elite. In much of his work Chesterton lampooned the modernist poets as well as those with strange, new philosophies in such verse that remains memorable even when the subjects become forgettable.
Against the rise of new philosophies and cultural approaches to the old pagan beliefs, Chesterton found a way to question their underlying ideas while defending what he saw as the virtue of the old pagans and the wisdom of his Christian faith:
If I had been a Heathen,
I'd have piled my pyre on high,
And in a great red whirlwind
Gone roaring to the sky;
But Higgins is a Heathen,
And a richer man than I:
And they put him in an oven,
Just as if he were a pie.
Now who that runs can read it,
The riddle that I write,
Of why this poor old sinner,
Should sin without delight—
But I, I cannot read it
(Although I run and run),
Of them that do not have the faith,
And will not have the fun.
Songs of War and Grief
While Chesterton was known for his jolly demeanor—he was described by Dorothy L. Sayers as the "beneficent bomb"—he was certainly not one to mistaken his desire for innocence with naivety. His poetry during the Great War tended to be a call to remember why England was great, even in the midst of a brutal war, but to also reflect on the loss of England's sons—including his brother, Cecil.
Lepanto was his great poem written in 1911 and first published during the War; it would serve as an inspiration to the men in the trenches who saw some parallels with Don John of Austria's great sea battle and the struggle of the Allies on land, sea, and air. The ballade of Chesterton's Lepanto is a rollicking and rousing tale of martial exploits and bravery that sets the pace of a grand adventure.
Torchlight crimson on the copper kettle-drums,
Then the tuckets, then the trumpets, then the cannon, and he comes.
Don John laughing in the brave beard curled,
Spurning of his stirrups like the thrones of all the world.
Holding his head up for a flag of all the free.
Love-light of Spain – hurrah!
Death-light of Africa!
Don John of Austria
Is riding to the sea.
Shortly before the publication of Lepanto, Chesterton wrote one of the last great English epics about King Alfred the Great and his struggle against the Danes. The Ballad of the White Horse is a poem on the grandest scale, covering the defeat of Alfred before he bands together the chieftains to fight the great victory over the Danes at the Battle of Ethandun.
The brilliance and impact of this poem, originally published in 1911, cannot be overstated. It had a profound impact on a young J. R. R. Tolkien (though he would reconsider it later in life) as well as Conan the Barbarian author Robert E. Howard. Famed novelist Graham Greene, who had called Chesterton an "underestimated poet," compared The Ballad with T. S. Eliot's landmark The Waste Land, stating: "Put The Ballad of the White Horse against The Waste Land. If I had to lose one of them, I'm not sure that…well, anyhow, let's just say I re-read The Ballad more often."
The Ballad was carried by many soldiers in the First World War and Chesterton received letters of gratitude from widows and wives for writing it. Likewise, during the Second World War, when the The Times wrote of the Allies' defeat at the Battle of Crete the article ended with the words of the Virgin Mary to King Alfred:
I tell you naught for your comfort,
Yea, naught for your desire,
Save that the sky grows darker yet
And the sea rises higher.
Night shall be thrice night over you,
And heaven an iron cope.
Do you have joy without a cause,
Yea, faith without a hope?
We can imagine that the great journalist and poet of Beaconsfield was filled with joy to see his work having a positive impact on his fellow Englishmen.
As much as he may have loved his nation, Chesterton was not always the jingoist flag-waver who cheered the war effort. Writing in The Defendant (1901), Chesterton stressed a love of native land against the "lust of territory" and the desire to conquer and hold lands. He remarked on the new patriotism sweeping Europe,
'My country, right or wrong,' is a thing that no patriot would think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying, 'My mother, drunk or sober.' No doubt if a decent man's mother took to drink he would share her troubles to the last; but to talk as if he would be in a state of gay indifference as to whether his mother took to drink or not is certainly not the language of men who know the great mystery.
The horrors of losing friends and family to war would also move him to write one of the darkest and most damning anti-war poems ever printed in the English language, Elegy in a Country Churchyard:
The men that worked for England
They have their graves at home:
And bees and birds of England
About the cross can roam.
But they that fought for England,
Following a falling star,
Alas, alas for England
They have their graves afar.
And they that rule in England,
In stately conclave met,
Alas, alas for England,
They have no graves as yet.
Chesterton's brother had died while serving England, shortly before the Armistice, and that great loss induced one his more melancholic moods.
While Chesterton was seen as a generally happy man, some scholarship indicates that he may have battled a depressive mood now and again. Certainly he wrote about the afflictions of his mind while a young man, and the death of his beloved brother caused him to compose some uncharacteristic harsh words in letters as well as meditations on suffering. In one of these spells he wrote A Prayer in Darkness which, to this author's mind, is Chesterton's most moving poem:
THIS much, O heaven—if I should brood or rave,
Pity me not; but let the world be fed,
Yea, in my madness if I strike me dead,
Heed you the grass that grows upon my grave.
If I dare snarl between this sun and sod,
Whimper and clamour, give me grace to own,
In sun and rain and fruit in season shown,
The shining silence of the scorn of God.
Thank God the stars are set beyond my power,
If I must travail in a night of wrath,
Thank God my tears will never vex a moth,
Nor any curse of mine cut down a flower.
Men say the sun was darkened: yet I had
Thought it beat brightly, even on—Calvary:
And He that hung upon the Torturing Tree
Heard all the crickets singing, and was glad.
A Prayer in Darkness deals with some darker themes, much like his more famous A Ballade of Suicide, but it is also a poem of hope and gladness. The speaker of both poems is not able to change everything, but can find the things in life and in God that enable him to say, "I think I will not hang myself to-day." It is not a mere empty comfort or a song of self-help but is in fact an acknowledgement of the state of the world and the troubles of the mind while still possessing the faith, hope, and tenacity to seek out what makes life worth living.
Chesterton's poems range from the rollicking drinking verses to the exciting fantasies and back to the poems seeking hope when life can seem so bleak—and even one that acknowledges the horrors of jingoism and warfare. As with his prose, Chesterton wrote so many pages of verse that many of them had to be hunted down by his wife and publisher before they could be collected. As publishers such as Ignatius Press bring his poetry to more readers, we ought to raise our glasses and bow our heads in gratitude that the Creator had given us a bard who could speak to the fullness of human experience in rhyme and meter.

How to get your profile pictures to fit within the allotted space.
Do you use your logo?
Should you have a picture of yourself?
If you've invested in branding and have a logo that you are hoping to use to project a unified image across all social channels, your website and on printed material you possibly think this is the best option. But before you do just consider the image you're projecting and the audience you are hoping to engage. If you're a small to medium sized business and you will be posting for the company then yes go ahead and use the logo. Do make sure it's the right size and all of it is visible … more on this later.
Using a head-shot may be better if you are a small business, possibly a sole trader. In this instance, you are the business and it is you who people will be engaging with online and ultimately doing business with. Your online audience will be engaging with you personally so choosing a picture that represents you as the face of the business is sometimes a better option.
If you're going for a head-shot of you it's worth investing in a session with a professional photographer. Tempting though it is to try and cut costs here, that blurry shot of you at a friend's party with the wine glass cropped out is not really going to cut it. If you need a little more convincing have a read of this post which discusses profile pictures for your website, but also the importance of having them professionally taken.
This is the option that I have chosen. I do have a logo which appears on my website and all my business documentation. However, I am a small business and it is me directly who is the point of contact for anything relating to the business so using a head-shot is the best option for me, but I did want to include my logo also so have added that over the top of the profile picture that I have chosen.
If using your logo make sure that all of it is visible and nothing gets cropped out and the quality is good. Keep it central.
For head-shots, aim to get your face in the middle of the allocated space. It goes without saying that it should be your whole face. Unless you have celebrity status and are super cool your left eye on its own is not going to work. You want to look professional and you want your audience to be able to recognise you … your whole face please.
Twitter recently changed their profile image from a square to a circle. So, like me, you may have found part of your image being cropped out. The edges of my logo were missing. Essentially you still need a square image but you may need to include a little bit more negative space, or background, around the edges. Remember your profile picture will be visible on different devices. The largest being on desktop at 500 x 500 pixels when a user clicks on your profile picture to see it in more detail. Size your image to this and then Twitter will scale down as needed. Loading a smaller image will result in loss of quality when the picture gets scaled up.
Your Facebook page profile picture again needs to be square and will be displayed at 160 x 160 pixels. However, Facebook requires your image to be at least 180 x 180 pixels to load it. When loading larger images, you do have options to resize and select the area of the image that you want to use which is great when loading a photograph. If you're using your logo do make sure that it's in the middle – it may be easier to make sure your image is in the middle of the optimum size before loading.
As with Twitter your Linked in profile picture will now appear within a circle. So, do make sure that there is a little bit of white space around any logo that you are using. The image will be displayed at 200 x 200 pixels so aim for this size, but images up to 400 pixels square can be loaded. Linked In does also offer some useful cropping and filtering tools when loading as well as a very useful feature which allows you tilt and rotate your chosen image.
Linked In is slightly different from the other channels as it really is a professional networking tool online and it's about connecting with other professionals. So, unless you have a business profile for your company, use a headshot of yourself.
Instagram profile pictures again are within a circle so need to have a square aspect. The optimum size is 110 x 110 pixels. This is the size that they will be displayed at and unlike some channels you cannot click to zoom in.
This is not a comprehensive list of all social channels, but it does include the ones that most of you small business owners are using. While researching this topic I did find the article below which has a great info graphic with comprehensive details of all image sizes for most social channels including profile pictures, and also headers and covers and post or tweet images.
Aim to use the same profile picture across all your channels to create a consistent brand image … ideally an image that matches any that may be in use on your website.
If you're having problems with sizing images or getting a consistent look please do get in touch. We're always happy to help when we can or point you in the direction of someone who can.

Okay, since the hardpan is cracking...went scoping. Since the DX universe is about conspiracies checked out Rense.com (where else to get a daily dose of the unknown??).
This is a flashback for me of July, 2001. That summer there was a heated debate about cameras in public places to monitor the coming and going of people. The public really disliked it at the time and called it unconstitutional.
Then 9/11 came, and flipped all that rhetoric upside down. It was almost like all that was debated just 2 months before vanished. Now this same "general public" wanted more "security".
Unwarranted wiretaps. Expanded FISA provisions and court powers. Holding prisoners without access to attorneys, indefinitely. You're regarded a terrorist first, innocent later (forgetting that you're presumed innocent, until a jury of your peers says otherwise). Even your library checkout history could be checked by law enforcement.
People went along with it, as it brought them a feeling of "security".
Almost 7 years later, with al Qaeta basically in shambles; Iraq a ghost of it's former self; Afghanistan still not recovered from the Taliban; Iran more powerful than ever; Pakistan assassination and abuses internally and externally into Afghanistan -- we still learn the "State", wants to monitor citizens. Quietly this time, not even under the banner of terrorism. Yet it's still being monitored in secret.
Then we hear out of the blue yesterday (of all places on Fox News, the corporate protector #1), that we should start turning off our cellphones due to a "cancer" risk (hmmmm, industry has been denying it for years, and all of the sudden we get a cancer advisory stamp of approval......).
1. WHO would benefit the most from such data snooping? Government or corporations?
2. The State would have a reason to counter terrorism, but would the corporations want to also have access to that data, even revivals' trade secrets (it's all out in the open to grab)?
3. And if #2 is true, who is snowing who? Is the State trying to control the corporations?
4. How would the corporations retaliate? Will they create their own UNATCO style organization to keep even the government at bay? Just imagine how much data is emitted via these corporations out in the open, ready for anyone to cherry pick even. The State gets it, and they know the "crown jewels". At this state of the DX3 drought, ooooh, this would be soooo tasty!!
5. Did the Guardian blow the whistle on something deeper? Like by turning the phones off, and staying off folks won't start snooping on the whole wavelength issue (finding the signature of who and when you're monitored), long enough for whoever to mothball the snooping for awhile?
In the DX universe this is status quo, will DX3 expand on this theme -- of who's watching who?
The government is controlled by lobbyists from corporations, so by government control, the corporations benefit.
What about a rogue government though? How will corporate control a government that turns on them? Or a government that learns to fear them?
Already there's enough rancor to curtail lobbies. Will that mean the corporations will backlash (like pulling PAC monies)? Or form their own UNATCO/Blackwater type organization?
Everyone wants the data, yet the government and corporations needs to control access to it (knowledge is power). But if the ying and yang is unbalanced, what happens next? The anarchy both fear?
There is certainly potential for corporations to use but without adequate knowledge of which ones use it, I can't really say. Really, businesses often try to get over on one another so I'm not surprised.
The state had more potential, but like Chemix says, many businesses have enough influence so that whatever surveillance is done, it won't happen to them.
How can the State trade power like that though? They also crave the same influence and power. It's a ying and yang relationship. If one loses their balance, they are rolled over.
The State can't afford to lose their power (as we see them flex their muscle every blue moon to regain it). They seem to trump in the end, too.
I'm just looking at the situation as it is now. The American political system is such that certain things have to be run through special intrest groups before they can be approved. And as corporations have the most money, they also tend to have the most influence.
It just seems to me right now that most of our so-called "public servants" are nothing more than just a bunch of bickering officials who care more about staying in power than fixing the problems in our country, whether such probelms be immigration or social security. Special interests aren't entirely to blame for these problems, but they do kind of limit debate.
To answer your initial question, I think that a UNATCO/Blackwater type force could only be formed if corporations/military contractors/ what have you felt threatened by the actions the government was taking. The only reason they can feel threatened then is if the government decides that something that they are doing is subversive to their policies somehow, and try to stop it. Surveillance of what you describe just doesn't quite have that sort of impact as it's not really a super-destructive act that fits within the context of how our government works.
I differ about the UNATCO/Blackwater scenerio. Blackwater is a private merc "army" that corps use to protect their own and their property, that the State department even employed to protect their own.
That's a huge blur of the State and Corporate line.
Like with UNATCO, they also had carte blanche rule (untouchable really, which caused a rankle with other merc organizations due to their status). Only when that incident happened in Iraq, did accountability come, and they're still off the hook, as they were "working for the government".
Corp merc army offering protection to State officials.
That's stuff right out of the DX universe, hands down!
It's nothing new really, governments have been using mercenaries for a long time. Two examples I can think of are the Civil War and the Crusades.
Yet not corporate merc armies.
Those were individual mercs that were hired and formed merc armies afterwards. When their term was finished, they disbanded and went where ever.
This is a business, and these merc's don't disband, and have immunity of laws everyone else has to obey, at times (and not bound by the Geneva Convention, so can skirt those rules, too). They're not civilians, but they're not soldiers, either.
Really? Oh, I thought they were considered armed combatants by the UN.
The thing is, being a politician requires money to sling mud at your opponent, and make appearances and trips and such, and that money usually comes from lobbyists. Once corporations help get someone into office, that person becomes like an unofficial employee; they do something that benefits the company through congress, the company pays them back. Alternatively, one can swap between public and corporate office, leaving and coming back as terms run out and elections begin.
How far will it go? Considering if a politician gets pissed by a corporation, or is bribed to go after a rival?
They sell themselves to the highest bidder, which means a rival corp can turn them.
Which still leaves us with the data access issue: who needs that data of people going from point A to point B? I can see the government wanting to see if it can pick up terrorists in the crowd (or use face recognition software). But in that article it doesn't seem to be a government enterprise.
What do you think about these universities turning into like corporations? Since some are almost like them, especially harboring patents and building huge research centers (Cambridge comes to mind, here). Could that be why the secrecy involved? They also have 100s of millions of dollars worth of endowments (and pay almost no taxes, just look at Yale's history).
I don't think there's soem huge conspiracy behind the secrecy, but it might make an interesting setting in a DX-type game. They probably just want to protect their interests, like all the other corporations.
The bills don't strictly favor any large company over any other large company, politicians like to keep every option available that's worthwhile, which cuts out the little guys and stomps them into the mud.
I'll give an example: in the 1850s, before the civil war, the North controlled congress, and the northern congressmen were backed by industries in the north. Those industries wanted the fertile lands of the south, so congress imposed export terrifs (fees/taxes) on Southern farm crops, which made all but the largest farms unable to turn enough profit to pay the rising taxes on their land, so they turned to the banks for loans hoping that the terrifs would be removed in a year or so, they weren't removed. The banks foreclosed on the farms and put the land up for sale, and who was looking to buy? Northern industry. This was one of, if not the heaviest, straw on the South's back towards the civil war. Ending slavery would hurt the big farms, and that was the last straw. Big and small southerner alike went to war. As a note: I think slavery is barbaric, cruel and evil, I'm just stating what I was taught and went on to research about why the civil war happened.
As for surveillance, it's not only useful for catching terrorists, but for catching inventors and idealists among other things. With the Military Commissions Act, anyone in the US can be held without fair trial (there's a military tribunal with no defensive evidence), and imprisoned, if not tortured, with no Geneva conventions rights. Also it allows for further control as one can monitor society more closely, see the reaction to adds and suggestion, etc. etc.
Ending slavery didn't occur until 1863 (and only by a decree), 2 years into the War between the States (Northerners like to call it the Civil War). Too many believed the war was over slavery, when it was not. It was partly due to the tariffs, but also due to State rights (too many forget the Young-Webster debates, which set the motion of the whole State rights agenda. With the VP of that day, John C. Calhoun being a fervant supporter, so much to fall in disfavor with President Jackson [who threatened to send federal troops into South Carolina then]). For over 20 years Southerners remembered those debates -- and to this day.
The tariffs were the match, States rights the gas.
In this day and age I doubt the government let alone corporations would prefer to have some inventor arrested (monitored, but not arrested). That's lost revenue.
It's all sick to know that a few can control not only the population, the very knowledge that is needed to get free of both the government and corporations grip. No one in 1970 would've predicted what the PC would've done to the world in 1985. Same will be said with the next great invention. Corps survive, but Xerox and IBM are a shell of what they could've been.
Say an inventor comes up with an alternative to... say, oil, do you really think the oil companies would like that? With them safely locked up and quiet, there is no threat, but you're right, it is sick, it's the realization of the panopticon (wiki it, neat stuff), and the furthering of the real Deus Ex Machina.


Purchasing two-way radios for industrial or individual use can verify to be a smart investment for anybody wanting a dependable cost-efficient communication system. BUT, the decision as to which radio is appropriate for you requires cautious factor to consider.
Operating environments vary considerably from one customer to the next and also there is no such point as a 'one dimension fits all' approach when selecting 'the most effective' radio. While they can be costly, two-way radios are a very useful and also cost-efficient item of package to have in your communication arsenal.
It is vital to understand the regularity distinctions available so that communication is reliable and as interference free as possible relying on the atmosphere the radios operate in. VHF, or Really High Frequency, operates on frequencies in the 136 Mhz – 174 Mhz variety and also are typically best fit for use outside on open land or rolling hillsides with couple of trees.
UHF, or Ultra High Frequencies operate on frequencies in the 450 Mhz – 470 Mhz variety and also are normally extra popular than VHF since they provide better variety inside steel or concrete structures and also crowded inner-city locations.
The option in between whether to buy registered or licence-free radios mainly depends on 3 aspects: budget plan, running atmosphere and also security. Licence-free (PMR-446) radios operate on 8 general channels and also share the frequencies with every other PMR-446. The only downfall with is that in particular circumstances anyone within series of you using a PMR446 radio has the prospective to eavesdrop to your discussion or disrupt your signal. Licence-free radios require no permit, no network, no telephone call charges and also no contract. They are an ideal cost-efficient entry-level radios for anybody wanting to operate within line of vision approximately approx. 3km of variety.
Licenced radios usually provide boosted attributes and also improved communication with larger variety and also less interference. Regularities are designated on a case-by-case basis and also can cost anything from ₤ 75- ₤ 200 relying on the operating atmosphere (i.e. rural, urban, inner-city). Licenced radios are extra fit in the direction of service use and also provides extra security, making it challenging for individuals to eavesdrop on the discussion. I have located a great site with great deals of info including this post about midland walkie talkie that you will take pleasure in. Make sure to go and also inspect it out.
Digital or analogue just establishes the method the radio signal is transferred and also obtained. Analogue radios are less intricate than digital radios and also have a much better capacity to communicate in instances where a gotten signal is weak or noisy. However, analogue operation just allows one discussion at once on each network.
Digital mobile radio (DMR) is a method of digitising speech and also sending it over radio waves, whereas analogue devices utilizes 'audible speech', digital radios 'digitise' the speech similar to just how a cellphone does; permitting uninterrupted two-way conversation.Users of digital radios benefit from improved speech quality, greater security, straight calls, even more channels, more powerful variety, message messaging & longer battery life. However, digital radios are extra complex, should be developed and also configured to the exact same requirement to be suitable with each other and also significantly extra expensive.
The variety of channels available on two-way radios differs with each version. If all your employees require to communicate with each other, after that one network works well. However, if you operate an organisation such as a resort, you'll want several channels. After that your cooking area, home cleaning, and also valet solution each can stay in discuss one network with security and also hotel monitoring on an additional network.
You require to establish the number of various divisions will be interacting amongst themselves and also throughout divisions when choosing the number of channels your radios require.
. If the radio is most likely to be submersed in water or operated in damp and also dirty environments for any type of considerable time period after that you require to take into consideration selecting a radio with an IP ranking of 66 or above. This ensures that the devices is protected (to varying degrees) versus dirt and also water breach. I assume that when you go camping it is very important to have GPS available. GPS can actually assist when you don't know where you are. Don't get lost once again with a mobile GPS device. Take a look at this post about best handheld gps to see several of the most effective GPS units on the market.
. It is rather very easy to identify the type of radio called for however harder to select the precise make and also version that is most fit to your needs without screening in the operating atmosphere. Lots of radio companies provide free on-site demos and also screening as well as additionally have radios which are available for hire.

Q: Switch from one tab to other programatically In a Windows Form, while using tabControl1 how to switch from one tab to other(i.e tabPage1 to tabPage2) on button click in tabPage1..Tried a lot with
tabPage2.Show();
tabControl1.SelectedIndex = tabPage2;

etc but not giving any o/p...Please help

A: You should try using the TabControl.SelectedTab Property:

Gets or sets the currently selected tab page.

The topic above also has the following remark:

The tab page must be in the TabPages collection to make it the current
  tab page.

In your case, this should work:
//somewhere in your code, you have to add first the TabPage to the TabControl
tabControl1.TabPages.Add(tabPage2);

tabControl1.SelectedTab = tabPage2;

[UPDATE]
If that doesn't work either, it's likely you haven't associated the button1_Click method as the button1's Click event handler. And it's even more likely that you just created the button1 control in another control container of your form or the form itself and then cutted and pasted it to the tabPage1 control.
That will remove the event handler.
Just reassign the button1_Click method as button1's Click event handler and make sure you use the SelectedTab property (or SelectedIndex as  shown in some other answers and comments of this question).
Here's a reference to a similar problem: cut and paste controls lost event handlers.

A: try this code:
tabControl1.SelectedPage = tabpage1;

A: Notice the TabControl.SelectedIndex property is in integer. (You could also use the SelectedTab property as the other answers suggest)
So you set it to the tab you want selected :
tabControl1.SelectedIndex = 1;

Here is a full blown sample based on the msdn code, (note it's not tested since I'm not on windows and don't have .NET setup here):
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public class Form1 : Form
{
    private TabControl tabControl1;
    private TabPage tabPage1;
    private TabPage tabPage2;
    private Button btn;

    private void MyTabs()
    {
        this.tabControl1 = new TabControl();
        this.tabPage1 = new TabPage();
        this.tabPage2 = new TabPage();
        this.btn = new Button();

        this.tabControl1.Controls.AddRange(new Control[] {
            this.tabPage1,
            this.tabPage2});
        this.tabControl1.Padding = new Point(15, 10);
        this.tabControl1.Location = new Point(35, 25);
        this.tabControl1.Size = new Size(220, 220);
        this.btn.Location = new Point(10, 250);

        // Selects THE FIRST tab initially..
        this.tabControl1.SelectedIndex = 0;

        this.tabPage1.Text = "myTabPage1";
        this.tabPage1.TabIndex = 0;

        this.tabPage2.Text = "myTabPage2";
        this.tabPage2.TabIndex = 1;

        this.btn.Text = "Select myTabPage2";
        this.btn.Click += new EventHandler(btn_click);

        this.Size = new Size(400, 400);
        this.Controls.AddRange(new Control[] {
            this.tabControl1});
        this.Controls.Add(btn);
    }
    public void btn_click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        tabControl1.SelectedIndex = 1;
    }
    public Form1()
    {
        MyTabs();
    }

    static void Main()
    {
        Application.Run(new Form1());
    }
}

A: this.tabControl1.SelectedTab = this.tabControl1.TabPages[1];.

Not much discussion of universal injunction in Wednesday's argument in Trump v. Hawaii. The one real exchange occurred late in Neal Katyal's argument for Hawaii, prompted by Justice Gorsuch, who questioned the "troubling rise of this nationwide injunction, cosmic injunction." Gorsuch recognized that the issue was not geography, but district courts issuing a remedy "not limited to relief for the parties at issue or even a class action" and "assert[ing] the right to strike down a -- a federal statute with regard to anybody anywhere in the world." Katyal acknowledged sharing Gorsuch's impulse, but argued that the Court should not address the issue in this case, because of its immigration context and the need to leave it to lower courts to figure out in the first instance.
I am curious whether the lack of interest in the scope of the injunction hints at where the Court will come down on the merits.
