Cogent Research establishes a clear, agreed objective with you, and this governs the research methods we use.
Research uses primary or secondary sources of data.
Primary research derives data directly from the respondent, while secondary research sources information from third parties, such as statistical bodies or record offices, often using the Internet to gather data.
There are two types of market research – qualitative and quantitative.
Qualitative seeks qualification or validation of data. More "touchy-feely" than quantitative, it provides an insight into the thinking or decision-making process of those questioned.
Quantitative seeks quantity of data. It's all about numbers and measurement – how many respondents agree or disagree, do something or do not.
The two types are often combined. For example, qualitative research will say why customers are unhappy with a store layout, while quantitative will seek to find out how many like or dislike it.
The different types of market research use different methodologies, all of which Cogent Research can efficiently adopt for you. Click here to find out more.

Q: Emacs applications vs native visual tools I have been using emacs for around 6 months in anger now, but I still find myself sometimes being alot more productive with visual tools, like various mindmapping software, JetBrains for clojure/Java development, and web browsers for web access, instead of the Emacs equivalents. Although I would like to use emacs for everything I have started to realise that maybe emacs vs the rest is really an argument to how we visualise problems, as some people are able to visualise things more easily with other tools, even die-hard emacs users. Any thoughts from die-hard emacs users on what applications they find easier to use outside of emacs?
Note:  I want to use Emacs as an operating system as in Microsoft Windows or Mac OSX, and when I talk about applications I am talking about applications installed within Emacs

A: Dont try and use emacs for everything. Use it for what it does best: editing. Compilation (if integrated with the right compiler).
Emacs can be used for almost anything. That does not mean it should be.
Right tool for the job is always a better way to go.
(From an emacs user since 1992... who uses other tools when it makes sense to do so).

Hi. Do you have an ETA for updating the EventSystem extension to work with OutSystems platform 11? There is a missing reference and I am not able to solve by opening in Integration Studio and re-publishing from there. The reference is to 'LoggerImplementation'. If you have no ETA, do you have any work-around steps that we might try?
This component takes advantage of private and undocumented Platform APIs, which can change without notice. As a result, this component may unexpectedly break as the Platform is upgraded. We advise proper testing to ensure that your applications continue to work as expected when upgrading/patching the Platform.
What kind of tests have you done before upgrading your apps?
That's not a particularly helpful reply. My question still stands.
Mine also... did you test your apps before upgrading? Can you tell us how that process went?
I have adjusted the question to remove the reference to production systems, so we can focus on my actual question. "It doesn't appear to work in 11. Do you have an ETA for supporting 11, and/or any steps we can try in the meantime?".
Hi m9679. I will release an updated version within a week. I'm sorry about the problems you are facing.
A possible workaround would be to use the web block events that was released with version 11, although I am aware that it doesn't cover all of the use cases of the Event System.
That's wonderful, thanks Leonardo. No apologies needed or expected, and sure do appreciate your quick response. It's a hugely useful component and we appreciate your efforts in making it available on the Forge.
Hi m9679, could you check if the latest version (10.0.8) solves this problem? It will get upgraded to version 11 automatically.
The error you're getting seems to be related to a code that is no longer in the latest version. So I believe you've upgraded your environment using an older Event System version, which is what caused the issue.
Oh right - good spot. Great, we'll give that a try straight away and let you know the result.
1. Downloaded the latest stable version from the Forge.
2. Used "Open File" in Service Studio to open the OAP that was downloaded.
3. It prompted me to install the Application, I told it to go ahead.
If it's a help, here's the OAP as downloaded from my Personal Environment, which MAY work better for you since it was already published in a P11 environment.
That said, P11 now natively supports events, you may want to look at how that is done to see if it makes sense to convert things over to use the native support stuff now.
Thanks @Justin - appreciate the steer. Almost there with proving the same ourselves.
Yes, we're back in business. Thanks everyone for your suggestion. PS - we resolved Search and Autocomplete in the same way (we had a fairly old version).
Justin - thanks for the tip regarding v11 having events!
So, I am trying to switch to the native v11 events in the UI ... previously, I used the Timer + EventSystem from Forge to do a simple "refresh widget every 3 seconds". Essentially a widget polls the backend to get updated status on a back-end long-running process (e.g. % complete).
Any suggestions as the v11 events by themselves don't get me there.
Also - the v11 docs don't have much in the way of explaining HOW to use the new web UI events.
I added an event to a web block and have an event handler on the page that instantiates the block ... but ... how does one TRIGGER the event associated with the web block??? I can't find docs or examples ... I must be missing them I am sure.
Bruce, the web block events in web applications (introduced in v11) work just the same as the mobile events (introduced in v10).
You can declare an event that a web block raises, create input parameters, and make it mandatory or not. On any screen action inside the web block you can trigger the event, providing values to the input parameters. There's a Trigger Event primitive in the action toolbar at the left side, or you can just drag the event into the screen action flow to trigger it. When you instantiate the web block (on a screen or on another web block), you can assign a screen action to handle what happens when the event is triggered.
I could not find documentation on this new functionality - maybe it's still being worked on?
This functionality also does not completely replaces the Event System. You can only trigger events from within a web block to outside of it. There's no way to trigger an event from an outside scope, or to pass data into the web block.


Consider the impact of every contact center agent having the knowledge, tools and ability to provide a flawless experience; think about the results that are possible when an organization perfectly aligns their mission, vision, and values with the needs and expectations of both their customers and their employees. Envision all of this being the case for your organization.
This is not an easy task for even the most sophisticated of organizations: The complexity of today's contact center is at an all-time high with a future indicating more channels to manage, increased customer expectations to fulfill, and a need for a frontline workforce that is, by no means, "entry level". This doesn't mean providing an effortless customer experience is impossible, it just means that you need to be ready to handle whatever comes your way.

Popol Vuh Popol Vuh – Getting Started
Myth and Survival
Like Gilgamesh, Popol Vuh combines real human history and supernatural myth to give people a sense of their place in the universe, their divine origins and their earthly role.
In this case, the people are the Quiché Mayans. Their origins were around 300 CE in what is today south-central Guatemala and eastern Mexico, as one region of the great Mayan empire, which gradually fell apart some time before the arrival of the Spanish. The reasons are still debated, but appear to include civil war, population pressure and environmental stresses. Their later history included the arrival of the Spanish in the 1530s and the repression of many elements of Mayan culture. Their present history includes a fight to restore Mayan language, customs, clothing, and religious practice to the descendants of the empire. Their divine history is recorded in Popol Vuh.
David Damrosch
Professor of Comparative Literature, Harvard University:
"This book is both a history of the world and a series of vivid tales about particular characters. Good stories are woven into the history of the universe."
Basic Timeline
The Early Classic Period of Mayan civilization.
The Late Classic Period of Mayan civilization.
The Late Postclassic Period of Mayan civilization.
The Spanish, under Cortes and then his lieutenant Pedro de Alvarado, explore the northern Mayan kingdom and eventually conquer it. The Spanish introduced a program to wipe out Mayan culture that continued to one degree or another up to the present day.
A Spanish priest, Father Ximénez, transcribes and translates the Quiché version of Popol Vuh in a document that has Spanish in one column and Quiché in another.
Adrián Recinos rediscovers Ximénez's manuscript and has it published, rescuing it from obscurity.
When the Spanish conquered the Mayans, they began a systematic attempt to completely dismantle Mayan civilization. Hundreds of Mayan books were burned, but the Mayans preserved their culture underground, and one of the ways they did this was by writing out Mayan books in the Roman alphabet. This way, even if the Mayans eventually forgot their own script, because the Spanish outlawed it, they could read Mayan books in the new official alphabet imposed by the Spanish.
The Popol Vuh is the most important of these saved books. It is at once a work of myth and a work of history. It tells the story of how the sea and sky gods joined together before the beginning of time to create land, plants, and living creatures on the earth, and stars, planets, and suns in the sky. That is the mythic and fictional aspect of the book. The history/non-fiction aspect is that Popol Vuh tells the story of the ancestral Mayan lords who passed down their titles and responsibilities from generation to generation, giving their names and roles. Popol Vuh means roughly "Council Book," and had been used for centuries by Mayan leaders to give them instruction when making important decisions.
So the remarkable Popol Vuh records events from the beginning of time to the present day of its writers, switching from myth to history, and tying the two together to guide the Maya.
We are able to be guided by Popol Vuh today thanks to the efforts of many translators and one thief. In 1701, a Spanish priest named Francisco Ximénez, living and working in Quiché territory, copied Popol Vuh with the phonetic Mayan in one column and a Spanish translation in another, creating the first version that Europeans could read. Ximénez's version was acquired by the University of San Carlos in Guatemala City in 1830. In 1857 an Austrian physician, Carl Scherzer, came upon the manuscript, which he published in Europe, and later a French priest called Charles Brasseur stole the manuscript and took it to Paris. After his death in 1874, a large collection of books, including Popol Vuh, was sold to American Edward Ayer, who donated them all to the Newberry Library in Chicago in 1911. Popol Vuh was then completely forgotten until 1941, when Adrián Recinos rediscovered it and published it. Now it is acclaimed around the world.
Just as our understanding of The Epic of Gilgamesh is always growing and changing as more lost cuneiform tablets are found, so our understanding of Popol Vuh changes as we learn more about Mayan language, literature, art, politics, and society.
What we do know about Mayan literature now is that every Mayan book had illustrations, and many of those pictures had signs in them that were meant to be read. One word means both writing and painting in Mayan. The authors of the Roman alphabet version of Popol Vuh did not include the drawings, but it seems clear that they are often describing them, in sections that begin with the phrase "this is." For example: "This is the great tree of Seven Macaw, a nance, and this is the food of Seven Macaw. In order to eat the fruit of the nance he goes up the tree every day. Since Hunahpú and Xbalanqué have seen where he feeds, they are now hiding beneath the tree of Seven Macaw, they are keeping quiet here, the two boys in the leaves of the tree." It seems clear that this passage is describing a picture from the Mayan document.
Mayan writing was a script that combined signs that stand for entire words and are usually used for names (for instance, a picture that means "Wednesday"), and phonetic signs that are made up of syllables (for instance, a word spelled out ca-ki-xa-ha). Mayan syllables almost always have the form of a consonant followed by a vowel; putting these syllables together makes a word (cv-cv-cv-cv = ca-ki-xa-ha).

Featured speakers include director Harold Ramis, actress Kristin Chenoweth, and cartoonist Chris Ware.
Unit 10 Things Fall Apart
In this foundational modern African novel, Chinua Achebe's story follows the lives of people trying to understand which belief systems deserve their loyalty.

Unit 11 One Hundred Years of Solitude
Gabriel García Márquez's multigenerational saga of the Buendía family in the isolated town of Macondo inaugurated the boom in Latin American literature in the 1970s and marked the beginning of magical realism. Writer Sandra Cisneros and scholar of Latin American literature, Ilan Stavans lend their thoughts and voices to the discussion of this epic novel.
Unit 12 The God of Small Things
Fraternal twins Rahel and Estha struggle to reclaim their lives after their childhood is destroyed by tragic circumstances.

Here's Why Martha MacCallum's Nightly News Program Was Bumped
By Distractify Staff
Feb. 24 2021, Updated 5:08 p.m. ET
It didn't take long for fans of the Fox News program The Story with Martha MacCallum to notice that the show suddenly stopped airing during its typically scheduled 7 p.m. ET time slot. The political news program "focuses on the issues that are most important to Americans with insight from top newsmakers and analysts," and has a dedicated of following of people who never miss an episode.
Keep reading to find out what happened to the Fox News program and its host.
What happened to Martha MacCallum?
In early January 2021, Fox News revealed that Martha's The Story would move from its 7 p.m. time slot to 3 p.m. ET. The network also announced that it would be launching a new show in the nightly slot titled Fox News Primetime. The new show features a rotating slate of guest hosts.
"As we kick off a new year, we are excited to announce new changes to our schedule. We have the best-in-class anchors, interviewers, reporters, and talent in all of news media," Suzanne Scott, Fox News Media CEO, said in a statement.
She continued, "This new powerful lineup ensures Fox News Media will continue to deliver outstanding coverage for our viewers who depend on the most trusted names in the business."
An insider told The Daily Beast that the network lineup restructuring was due to Martha's ratings. "[Fox] clearly don't think [Martha] is strong enough to be part of the prestigious primetime lineup," a current staffer told the outlet. "Before the election, she was always No. 1."
The insider continued, "Then we called Arizona for Biden and everything changed. Bottom feeders like Newsmax and OAN scrambled to accrue our disenfranchised viewers."
According to The Daily Beast, Fox News saw "double-digit declines" in their weekday news programs following the 2020 Presidential election.
"The world changed for Fox the day they called Arizona and the question that remains is: Will the audience ever forgive the news people for doing it?" one source told the outlet.
Martha's time slot was not the only change implemented in the Fox News lineup. Bill Hemmer moved from his 3 p.m. slot to a morning program from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., hosting alongside Dana Perino, who previously hosted a solo hour at 2 p.m.
Although the time slot change may be seen as bad to some, Martha has defended the positive elements of airing mid-afternoon, telling Insider that "The biggest change with The Story is that the news flow is pretty active at 3 p.m., so while we're digging deep and getting great guests and analysts on the news of the day, we're also the place to be for breaking news. Those are my roots, I love covering breaking stories and building on the reporting and bringing in voices to add to the coverage."
A post shared by Martha MacCallum (@marthamaccallum)
Despite being all for the changes implemented by the network, Martha admitted that she does miss parts of her old routine, "I miss seeing our full team in the newsroom," she said. "We're a family. We've all worked together for a long time and to be separated from each other is what I miss the most."
Watch The Story with Martha MacCallum weekdays at 3 p.m. ET on Fox.

Accurate and pleasing color rendering – check.
Fujifilm's 56mm f/1.2 just might be the perfect portrait lens.
For about a year now, my go to portrait set up has been a Canon EOS 5D III, with a 70-200mm f/2.8 or a Canon 50mm f1.4. Full frame cameras have shallower depth-of-field and Canon's sensors render skin tones beautifully. I recently purchased Fuji's 56mm to pair with my X-Pro2 for a wedding I will be shooting this weekend and decided to bring it in my camera bag to a portrait shoot I did in the park. I was blown away by the results!
This wasn't the first time I'd shot with the 56mm; my father has owned the lens before and I've used it on a couple of shoots. I'd always thought it was a good lens, but I'd never really put it through its paces in a professional setting.
The images that the lens produces are very pleasing. The colors are rich and the lens is very sharp – even at f/1.2! The bokeh is creamy and beautiful, perfect for head shots and portraits. My clients were extremely happy with the images that I gave them.
From a shooting perspective, the focus ring is very smooth and the aperture ring doesn't budge easily, which I like. The lens focuses quite well and is razor sharp. It's not too heavy and balances well on my X-Pro2.
I am very happy with the 56mm f/1.2. I'm excited to use it at the wedding this Saturday. Stay tuned for more images from the 56mm!
Next The last will be first, and the first will be last. A children's homily about Mortimer the farmer.

Towards a healthier future for Canadian cities
By Catarina Chagas, Coordinator, Strategic Initiatives
Multi-institutional project receives $3M in federal funding to develop framework and resources for active transportation in cities across Canada.

Cities worldwide are looking at how to promote sustainable transportation habits that will benefit both the environment and people's health. To inform public policies and city planning related to active transportation, a pan-Canadian research project is investigating how sustainable transportation interventions can support health, mobility, and equity outcomes in cities. Queen's researchers Jennifer Tomasone (School of Kinesiology and Health Studies) and Patricia Collins (Department of Geography and Planning) are members of the research team that recently secured $3M in funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) to advance this work.
Co-principal investigator in this study, Dr. Tomasone is an expert in knowledge translation or implementation science, that is, understanding how to effectively put research evidence into practice. An expert in healthy community planning and healthy built environments, Dr. Collins studies how to engage people in more sustainable modes of travel, like public transit or active transportation, and the main barriers to sustainable transportation acceptance.
Dr. Jennifer Tomasone
The project's multidisciplinary team includes over 50 researchers in public health, environmental sciences, geography, and social sciences across Canada. The group will work with local government partners, city planners, and community groups to document the implementation and outcomes of sustainable transportation interventions in Kingston, Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, Surrey, Halifax, Saskatoon, Guelph, Victoria, and Melbourne (Australia).
Drs. Tomasone and Collins will lead the local component of the project, working with the City of Kingston.
Bicycling networks and speed reduction
The project will focus on All Ages and Abilities (AAA) bicycling networks and speed reduction strategies.
AAA bicycling networks aim to make cycling safe, convenient, and comfortable for people of different ages and abilities, including children, seniors, and new riders. Protected bike lanes and bikeways on small streets or off-street are examples of how to support this type of active transportation, as they create options for individuals who are not comfortable with cycling on major streets.
On the other hand, speed reduction interventions make the roads safer for all users, particularly cyclists and pedestrians who are disproportionately exposed to the hazards associated with excessive speed.
"The speed related conditions of our streets ultimately shape travel mode decisions that we make every day," argues Dr. Collins. "For example, speed is often a concern in school zones. If parents are concerned about the well-being, safety, and security of their children when they come and go from school, then that incentivizes them to drive their kids to school, instead of walking or biking."
Both AAA bicycling networks and speed reduction strategies can be built into the design of cities to support mobility for people of all ages and abilities.
Kingston context
Based on Census data (Statistics Canada), Kingston has had high uptake of sustainable transportation modes (e.g., public transit, active transportation, and carpooling) compared to other cities of various sizes across the country. These travel trends are supported by numerous municipal interventions that have helped make the sustainable choice the easy choice.
Dr. Patricia Collins
"The introduction of four express bus routes through its transit revitalization strategy dramatically drove up ridership prior to the pandemic. And, the Active Transportation Master Plan and Active Transportation Implementation Plan signal the City's strong commitments to improving conditions for active transportation," says Dr. Collins. "Kingston's accomplishments to date provide a valuable learning opportunity to support the introduction of sustainable transportation solutions in other jurisdictions across the country."
Most of the existing research literature on healthy communities and healthy cities focuses on large cities like Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal. Looking at a city like Kingston is a great opportunity to understand which interventions can be successful in smaller cities, and how.
After completing the case studies in each location, the researchers will work on designing strategies and tools for city planners, policymakers, and other stakeholders. "Our goal is to generate a framework that can be used broadly for all cities to think through when they're proposing or looking to implement one of these two healthy city interventions or another intervention like enhanced public transit for example," says Dr. Tomasone.
Dr. Tomasone expects the project to garner attention in the context of Canada's National Active Transportation Strategy, launched by the Federal Government in 2021 and that will invest $400 million in active transportation infrastructure in the next eight years.
"This project will allow us to understand where, why, how and in what contexts sustainable transportation interventions have varying success," says Dr. Tomasone. "Once we understand the barriers that cities face when putting these interventions into practice, our team will then work towards advancing the uptake of the interventions, ultimately enhancing health and equity in our communities."

Are Time & Age the Same?
In a recent conversation I had with Hal Hershfield, Assistant Professor of Marketing at the NYU Stern School of Business who researches the effects time perspectives have on decision making, I was struck by something he came to rather casually. The more I study time, he said, the more I come to think of time and age as the same concept.

Ibeju-Lekki Youths Reap Benefits of Dangote Refinery Vocational Training
Economy August 24, 2020August 24, 2020 Francis Kadiri
Aliko Dangote
Many indigent youths in Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos State are now counting their fortunes and reaping the benefits from the first batch of the vocational training programme organized by Dangote Oil Refinery.
So far, some of the youths who took part in the first batch of the programme which started in 2019, have secured jobs with Dangote Oil Refinery Company, while the others are doing well in their various trades.
"Now I can feed myself, pick my bills", Mr. Balogun Jeleel Owolabi, who is from Epe Local Government Area, boasted as he spoke about the impact of the training on him and family members.
Speaking on his experience so far, Owolabi said that the training he acquired in refrigerator and air conditioner repair from the Dangote Refinery Vocational Training Programme has transformed his life and that of his family members.
According to him, Dangote Refinery offered him employment few months after graduating from the vocational training. "Few months after graduating from the training programme, I was called upon by the company to take up an employment at the project site."
Owolabi described being offered an employment as the best thing that has ever happened to him. "I am very excited about the job and opportunity to learn more things from the company. My salary has been regular and I can now help my family members from whatever I am earning from the company."
He encouraged other youths in the community who are feeling reluctant to participate in the training programme to make themselves available as they stand to benefit so much from the programme. "My message to other youths is that they should be serious and have focus. Although, the training may look challenging from the beginning, but at the end of it, they will be glad they did," he added.
Also, Mr. Lamidi Oladehinde described himself as one of the lucky beneficiaries of the vocational training programme as he has been able to secure a job with the Dangote Refinery. He described the opportunity as 'life-changing'. "The training has been beneficial in positioning us for success in our community."
He stated: "I heard about the programme and indicated interest and we were asked to start our training and it lasted for six months. We learnt so many things; we learnt how to manage our business, how to balance our accounts and how to make our business plan. Jobs have been created for our army of unemployed youths by the company. And we are very impressed with Alhaji Aliko Dangote for bringing development, employment and empowerment to Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos State."
Another beneficiary from Epe Local Government Area of Lagos State, Mr. Opafola Abayomi Olusegun, said he was trained on refrigerator and air-conditioned repair.
According to him, he went further to acquire more skill to be able to function well in his chosen career immediately after the training programme.
Narrating how he got a job at the Dangote Oil Refinery, Olusegun said he got a call from the Refinery to take up a job in the company. "After graduation from the vocational training, I went further to improve my skills in order to gain more experience on my trade. The training I acquired during the programme has impacted my life positively. Through this programme, I have been able to secure a job at Dangote Refinery company."
He urged Aliko Dangote not to relent in his efforts and investment in youth empowerment programmes. "So many lives have been touched with Dangote vocational training," he said.
Speaking on the rationale behind the training, Dangote Group Executive Director, Strategy, Capital Projects and Portfolio Development, Mr. Devakumar Edwin, said that the programme is aimed at curbing unemployment among the youths.
According to him, the programme cuts across a wide range of vocational skills including welding, electrical technician, plumbing, auto mechanic, radio and television repairs, refrigerator and AC repairs, building and furniture making.
Edwin said the initiative was in line with the vision of Aliko Dangote, President of the Dangote Group, to provide employment opportunities for youths, especially those found within the company's host communities.
He said addressing Nigeria's unemployment crisis requires providing platforms for youths to learn various vocational trades that would enable them to develop themselves and also become employers of labour.
"We know that there are a lot of graduates out there looking for jobs and that is why you should focus and take this training by the National Directorate of Employment (NDE) seriously. We will train you; we will equip you, and also ensure that you will be employable or become entrepreneurs", Edwin added.

Q: direct sums with different dimensions Is it possible for two subspaces of a different dimension to have a direct sum?
For example the vectorspace ${R}$ [X]<3 with the subspaces U=${R}$ [X]<1 and W={a+aX+bX^2+bX^3|a,b $\in$ ${R}$}.

A: Consider, as you said $V = \def\R{\mathbf R}\R[X]_{\le 3}$, with the subspaces

$U = \R[X]_{\le 1}$, and $W = \{a+aX + bX^2 + bX^3: a,b\in \mathbf R\}$.

This sum is not direct, as $1 + X \in U \cap W$.
But there are direct sums of spaces with different dimensions:

$U = \R[X]_{\le 2}$ and $W = \{aX^3: a \in \R\}$.

Then $V = U \oplus W$: For $p = a+bX+cX^2+dX^3\in V$, we have
$$ p = (a+bX+cX^2) + dX^3 \in U + W $$
On the other hand if $p=a+bX+cX^2+dX^3 \in U \cap W$, we have $d = 0$ due to $p \in U$ and $a=b=c = 0$ due to $p \in W$. Hence $p = 0$.
So, this sum is direct, but $\dim U = 3$, $\dim W = 1$. As allways for direct sums, we have
$$ \dim(U \oplus W) = \dim U + \dim W = 3+ 1 = 4. $$

You are here: Home > Our Education Services > Frequently Asked Questions > Is My Child's Behaviour Normal?
As a parent or carer, you know your child better than anyone else. If you have any concerns about development, behaviours, communication or learning abilities then it is better to try and get to the bottom of it as soon as possible.
Keep a diary of your child's behaviours or areas of development that are giving you cause for concern. This can not only help as supporting evidence when trying to get a diagnosis but can also help you identify if there are any patterns to your child's difficulties.
Speak to your child's nursery or school and see if they have the same concerns. Alternatively, seek advice from your GP or Health Visitor who may be able to carry out simple assessments. If there is agreement on your concerns, ask for a referral to a child assessment/development centre or a consultant paediatrician.


The NC State College of Education recognized over 150 graduating students during its December 2018 Graduation Ceremony Wednesday, Dec. 19, in the McKimmon Center. Our recap includes photos, quotes and notes from the ceremony.
As a high school English teacher, Vandna Bindra '18PHD discovered her own commitment to lifelong learning as she helped her students flourish in the classroom. Now as she's set to graduate with her doctoral degree, she hopes to link research to practice to build curricula and mentorship programs that promote positive identity and moral development for educators and students alike.
As his career progressed, Dylan discovered a natural draw to training processes at the organization level. He wanted to explore how training opportunities not only created better working environments but how they empower employees. Now, he prepares to graduate with a master's degree in Training and Development to help others gain the skills they need to succeed in their careers.
Ashley Lawson '18 did not plan to become a teacher when she first came to NC State, but an "aha" moment with the university's Park Scholars set her on a path to become a math teacher and our first Truman Scholar.
Last week, teachers-to-be WinnieHope Mamboleo and Cristina Chase Lane marched across the graduation stage at North Carolina State University. This week, they'll be marching with future colleagues at the state capitol in Raleigh, asking for better pay and better school funding.


At Equip2Go we try to keep things simple for everyone, thats why we have flat rate shipping on all orders for Metro Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth. For orders of only castors, lifting equipment and/or plastic containers you will pay only $22 for shipping into these metro areas. For larger goods such as products in our trolleys or ladders categories shipping is a friendly $44. Should you choose products from more than one category only the higher shipping charge will apply. For example if you order some plastic tubs, a box of castors and 3 trolleys, you still only pay $44 for shipping.
For areas outside of these areas we can certainly help with extremely competitive freight rates from our network of carriers we use. Should freight come to more than the default flat rates we will calculate the cost specifically for your order and quote you accordingly. At this point you have the option of paying any additional freight charges (we will then ship your goods promptly), arranging your own freight (we will refund any freight payments already made) or cancelling your order for a full refund.
Now that you have ordered your goods you are probably wondering how long it will be before you receive your goods. We endeavour to hold suitable stock levels at all times, however like all businesses we do occasionally run out. 98% of our orders are dispatched within 24 hours of receipt and payment of order and will be delivered within 2 business days for Metro areas. To regional areas it can sometimes be a little longer, but most orders are delivered within 3 business days. If goods are going to have any longer delays we will inform you beforehand so you are aware and can make alternative arrangements if needed.
In all instances, where practicable, we will dispatch goods from your closest branch to ensure goods are delivered as promptly as possible.
Like with all things though communication is the key, if you need any special deliveries, urgent orders or have complex delivery requirements, then please let us know so we can do our best to ensure that your needs are met.


Howard University's decision to have entertainment mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs deliver this year's graduating class commencement speech is causing many people cry foul.
The debate began raging as soon as Howard, located in Washington, DC, made the announcement Tuesday on Twitter.
Today, @WFrederickMD announced Sean Combs (@iamdiddy), CEO and founder of Combs Enterprises, will deliver the 2014 Commencement address.
Combs, who will also receive an honorary degree from the university alongside CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer, attended the historically black university for two years before dropping out in 1990.
Instead of finishing college, he went on to intern at New York's Uptown Records and then founded Bad Boy Records as a joint venture with Arista Records in 1993. In addition to his own recording career, Combs signed Notorious B.I.G., Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, Usher, Lil' Kim, TLC, Mariah Carey, Boyz II Men, SWV and Aretha Franklin, among others.
Can someone explain why Diddy, a person who never graduated from Howard, is speaking at graduation?
In previous years, Howard's commencement speakers have included former President Bill Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, Hillary Rodham Clinton, former Citigroup and Time Warner chairman Richard D. Parsons, "PBS NewsHour's" Gwen Ifill, Gen. Colin Powell and Maya Angelou.
Diddy's net worth is greater than Howard's Endowment. Just to give some context.
Diddy is doing Howard Commencement. That's a big look for hip-hop and to his story.

Designing the Next Generation Data Center
By: SolidFire_NetApp Published Date: Oct 10, 2016
This paper introduces five architectural principles guiding the development of the next generation data center (NGDC). It describes key market influences leading a fundamental enterprise IT transformation and the technological trends that support it. The five principles are: scale-out, guaranteed performance, automated management, data assurance, and global efficiencies. Cloud infrastructure delivery models such as IaaS, private clouds, and software-defined data centers (SDDC) are foundations for the NGDC. In an era where IT is expected to ensure productiongrade support with a plethoric flow of new applications and data, these models demonstrate how to eliminate bottlenecks, increase self-service, and move the business forward. The NGDC applies a software-defined everything (SDx) discipline in a traditional, hardware-centric business to gain business advantage.

The CIO Guide to Autonomic IT
By: Turbonomic Published Date: Jul 05, 2018
Organizations are adopting cloud computing to accelerate service delivery. Some try to deliver cloud economies of scale in their private data centers with the mantra "automate everything," a philosophy often simpler in theory than practice. Others have opted to leverage public cloud resources for the added benefit of the pay-as-you-go model, but are finding it difficult to keep costs in check. Regardless of approach, cloud technology poses the same challenge IT has faced for decades: how to assure application performance while minimizing costs.

IT Evolution to a Hybrid Enterprise Drives the Need for Location-Independent Computing
By: Riverbed Published Date: Jul 22, 2015
As enterprise computing has evolved, businesses have been shifting to a "hybrid enterprise" where core applications and data can be located in private data centers and public clouds. The growth of hybrid cloud deployments accelerated the transition to hybrid wide-area networks (WANs). Private networks, such as MPLS, are being joined by Internet connections that offer a choice in delivery channels—costly, but predictable, networks for mission-critical loads and cheaper public networks for bulk loads such as data backups.

Doyle Research: SD-WAN Becomes the Network
By: VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud Published Date: May 20, 2019
The network of yesterday is not the network that can take businesses into the future. As mission critical enterprise applications move to the cloud, wide area network (WAN) must adapt to become agile, flexible, and scale rapidly. Leading IT trends such as Internet of Things (IoT), Software as a Service (SaaS), cloud storage, enterprise mobility, emerging transport alternatives, and globalization increase the importance of how network assets are leveraged and how the network is conceptualized. The advantages of public and private data centers and cloud-based applications are significantly diminished if the network is slow, inflexible, and unpredictable. Erratic network performance with high latency, jitter and packet loss can significantly impact user adoption, satisfaction, and overall corporate productivity. As connectivity options continue to emerge, end users are no longer tethered to the office or to the localized applications and services that were trademarks of a primary or branc

IDC - The New Need for Speed in the Datacenter Network
By: Cisco Published Date: Jul 11, 2016
Today's datacenter networks must better adapt to and accommodate business-critical application workloads. Datacenters will have to increasingly adapt to virtualized workloads and to the ongoing enterprise transition to private and hybrid clouds. Pressure will mount on datacenters not only to provide increased bandwidth for 3rd Platform applications such as cloud and data analytics but also to deliver the agility and dynamism necessary to accommodate shifting traffic patterns (with more east-west traffic associated with server-to-server flows, as opposed to the traditional north-south traffic associated with client/server computing). Private cloud and legacy applications will also drive daunting bandwidth and connectivity requirements. This Technology Spotlight examines the increasing bandwidth requirements in enterprise datacenters, driven by both new and old application workloads, cloud and noncloud in nature. It also looks at how Cisco is meeting the bandwidth challenge posed by 3rd

Just because you rent doesn't mean you should abandon hope of having a beautiful outdoor space. Small Spot Gardens loves to work with renters and their landlords to create great spaces for those who don't own their homes. Renters have unique needs – they are understandably reluctant to invest a large amount of money in a garden they can't take with them, they're frequently unable to make significant changes to the established landscape, and they often don't want to wait too long for the plants to grow to maturity.

Before I start, this thread is not about the best/easiest/cheapest way to dispatch a fish. so lets not head down that path.
I'll also state I have no affiliation with the product or the manufacturer.
I'm rather partial to flathead fillets and as such flatties tend to be the only fish I keep.
They are kept in happily in my live well while on the water, and once back at the launch, they are "brain spiked" with my fillet knife, filleted, skinned and packed into ice sheets in my esky.
Not too long ago, my trusty fillet knife was mutilated by an inferior sharpening product and I had to replace it.
The knife I replaced it with is a little longer and more flexible. This created a problem when trying to brain spike flatties. The knife was too flexible to do the job properly.
Before I reverted to a sharpened screw driver I had a look around the internet to see what else was available.
I came across the "Ikigun". Although I thought it a little gimmicky, I'm never one to shy away from a gadget, so I bit the bullet and invested in one. Its basically a gun that you retract a blunt spike by pulling a handle, which is released with quite a bit of force when you pull the trigger.
The first thing that stood out to me when picking up the gun was the weight. It looks like a toy but is a solid bit of gear and well put together. I would not let your kids play with it, and the power of the thing has me almost questioning it's legality. You could do some real damage with this thing, and I would be very careful with it if using on your kayak while on the water.
Underneath the main spike is a small "Aiming Spike". I thought this was a little unnecessary but in practice, it works quite well and the gun is better for having it. It helps hold the fish still. The retractor handle has a hook on the end, which makes it possible to load the gun on the edge of a cleaning table while you have the fish in the other hand.
Well, I have never seen a fish go from lively to stone cold dead so quickly. I am totally sold on this thing. The blunt spike has no trouble what so ever penetrating a flathead skull, pulverising the brain in a split second.
While the gun is bloody awesome, a knowledge of fish anatomy is a must for this tool to be effective. This can be all found here: www.ikijime.com There are also smartphone apps for quick reference.
While its not something everyone would be prepared to fork out for, it is a quality bit of gear that does exactly what it claims to do.
