Two researchers, and one emerges as the winning idea. Similar to the video tape battle between VHS and Beta, the best option did not dominate and control.
The result is 40 million Americans taking cholesterol drugs that may be hurting instead of harming. Nothing new there!

"In any village of Georgia, I have collected more people," Saakashvili – "Coffee on Khreschatyk"
Former President of Georgia and former head of the Odessa regional state administration , Mikheil Saakashvili criticized the action "Coffee on Khreschatik" because of the small number of participants.
"In any moment of his presidency, in any village of Georgia, I have collected more people, handing out sweets and coffee," wrote policies on his page in Facebook.
According to Saakashvili, the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, "it's time to think about their prospects".
In Kiev between protesters on Independence square clashed
"When the current President of the largest country in Europe cannot collect more people in their support than today gathered on the main square of the country, and in his opinion he is now more likely and necessary, it's time to think seriously about their immediate prospects", – he said.
At any moment of his presidency, in any village of Georgia, I have collected more people, handing out sweets and coffee. …
Mikheil Saakashvili published 24 Dec 2017
At the same time, one of the organizers of the action – the adviser to the President Yury Biryukov said that "Coffee on Khreshchatyk" was not a political rally, and the participants "just out for coffee".
Several hundred people came out for coffee. What's the purpose of your action? We went out for coffee! – Why are there so few people…
Published Yuri Birukova 24 Dec 2017
We will remind, on the Independence Maidan in Kiev opponents of Mikheil Saakashvili, the indignant marches of the former head of Odessa region gathered to share "Coffee on Khreschatik". They were drinking hot drinks and treated people with candy Roshen. On the page in Facebook dedicated to the project, the purpose of the event is to show people something different from the "weekly political bacchanalia and attempts to storm the October Palace".

Firstly I would like to apologise for AussieScanners being offline, it is not something I ever like to see.
Yesterday morning 13th June 2018 at approxiamately 0440 our Hosting Provider detected some malicious harmful content on our website and revoked our permissions and essentially suspended our account until we resolved the matter, there online helpdesk ticketing system did not send us an email advising that one was created, i was not aware of the outage until this evening 14th June 2018 and have been working to have it resolved.
Again i would like to apologise for the outage and we are working with our hosting provider to increase the level of security on the forums to stop potential harmful content from being on our website, note that it was not detected in our forums but rather a sub folder of a past website that is still lurching in the shadows that i have yet to delete. Will be tonight.
Thank you for your continued support and i hope to bring you a more improved forums experience, whether that be through our existing platform or migrating to another forum platform with our current data.
Good to see you back up and running.

Today we're posting a roundup of the most interesting ways Europe has employed to get canal barges up-and-over stuff. The simplest method is of course a bridge, of which you can see several excellent examples in our previous post, A Canal Across Germany. However sometimes barges need to traverse obstacles that a bridge cannot cross, and Europeland has employed several ingenious solutions to particular geographic problems.
Between Saint-Louis and Arzviller in France, a system was required that enabled the canal to cross the Vosges Mountains. The solution is the Saint-Louis-Arzviller inclined plane, a single structure that replaced 17 locks upon its completion in 1969.
Basically, vessels float into a gigantic bathtub which is then hauled up a 108.7 metre-long ramp at 41°. This vertical change of 44.6 m used to take 8 to 13 hours to traverse, but can now be achieved in just 4 minutes.
Such canal inclined planes are actually not uncommon, but the Saint-Louis-Arzviller example is probably the steepest. In Belgium, engineers have a more traditionally modest angle, but over a much greater distance – the Ronquières inclined plane climbs 68 m vertically, but is nearly 1.5 kilometres long! This time there are two giant bathtubs (actually known as caissons), and the journey takes a much more leisurely 45 minutes to complete.
We already posted the world's steepest flight of locks, the Caen Hill Flight, so instead here's the Foxton Locks – a set of ten canal locks consisting of two "staircases" each of five locks. Because the Foxton locks can hold many boats at once, they've become a very popular location for Gongoozling – the art of watching activity on UK canals. No, seriously – there's a Wikipedia page on Gongoozlers and everything.
The best thing about the Foxton locks however, is that we can actually see a barge in one of the locks.
The UK also has two working boat lifts – the Anderton Boat Lift in Cheshire, England, and the awesome Falkirk Wheel in Scotland (which is unfortunately not available on Google Earth or Maps, but Microsoft's Live Local has a good image of it2).
Although both rely on Archimedes' Principle, the Falkirk wheel is unique as it is the only rotating boat lift in the world. Barges enter the wheel at the ends of two opposing 15 metre arms, which then rotate through 180° in five and a half minutes, using only the energy it takes to boil 8 kettles!
Read more at Wikipedia about the Saint-Louis-Arzviller inclined plane, the Ronquières inclined plane, the Strépy-Thieu boat lift, the Foxton Locks, the Anderton Boat Lift, and the Falkirk Wheel.
Or, if you're really interested, "Canal lifts and inclines of the world" by Hans-Joachim Uhlemann seems to be definitive book on this subject.
Thanks to Jel and others.
Haha, I was imaging how scary it would be to go up that incline in a boat, until I saw the wikipedia article!
The view of the "Plan Incline" in France doesn't include the great luge run in the basin to the southwest just below the big building (which is the visitors center for the Plan Incline). Hopefully there'll be a new shot soon; I'd love to see that thing from altitude!
Fantastic bit of engineering the Falkirk Wheel, makes me proud to be British. Unfortunately things like Gongoozling don't. Only joking I don't want to upset any Gongoozlers out there, in fact GGSS has made Gongoozlers of all of us.
Any way you don't really appreciate the Falkirk wheel until you see it working so Youtube to the rescue.
Foxton Locks was, of course, also the site of one of the first experiments in the Saint-Louis-Arzviller style 'sideways on' inclined planes. The remains of it show up surprisingly well in GE. There is a useful diagram here.
Unfortunately the Gmaps is quite low resolution there so one cannot really see it from satellite pictures.


Donald Quan is one of Canada's most successful composers that you've likely never heard of. But you know his work.
Every time CBC Radio's Metro Morning theme song gets you moving in the wee hours, you can thank Quan. The artist has created and scored themes for dozens of films and television shows such as Relic Hunter and Mutant X. He was also a band member for 1980s Canadian rock groups such as Lighthouse and Eye Eye.
A stroke while performing on stage at the Kitchener Blues Fest a decade ago has slowed him down. He's healthier now and back creating music, but he's also supported by royalties from his earlier body of work.
But he realizes that's not the case with the vast majority of musicians and creators in Canada. And he blames what he calls antiquated copyright legislation that has created an impoverishment of the creative community.
Proposed legislation by European Union lawmakers has given Quan and many in Canada's creative community hope in the digital age.
Film and television producers, musicians and writers could stand to gain billions in Europe after copyright changes that would force big tech companies such as Facebook and Google to share more revenue with creators, and to filter out copyrighted content. Platforms such as YouTube or Facebook would require licences to play copyrighted content, which would potentially give artists a new revenue stream for their work. Currently, copyrighted work is widely available online without consent of the artist, or, such as in the case of music videos broadcast on YouTube, with minimal compensation.
"There has never been a greater interest in content. There are more readers than ever. But nobody's really making any money off it except the aggregators and the platforms who are keeping all the profit," argues Degen, who is also a novelist and poet.
The controversial European decision comes at a crucial time: Canada is modernizing its own Copyright Act, and politicians are looking closely at other jurisdictions for a road map. Two parliamentary committees are currently studying the issue.
The disappearance of an artistic middle class has been a prevalent theme for creators.
Graham Henderson, Music Canada's President and CEO, calls this the "value gap," defined as the disparity between the value of creative content accessed by consumers versus the revenues returned to artists and businesses who create it.
That gap, Henderson says, could be in the billions of dollars in terms of lost compensation to creators in Canada.
Record label sales, for example, peaked at $998 million in 1998 before hitting a record low of $397 million in 2014, according to the association.
"The ability of record labels to invest in artists was dramatically diminished," argues Music Canada.
And it's not because consumers stopped listening to music. Quite the opposite. A study last year by Nielsen Music showed Americans are listening to more music today than ever before, thanks to the plethora of streaming services. But unless you're Drake or Adele, that increase doesn't translate into a windfall of royalties for creators.
Not everyone agrees with Henderson or the trade groups that are lobbying for a greater share of the profits in the digital economy.
Critics, including some artists, worry the European version will set a stage for mass and arbitrary censorship of the internet, creating filters that will block legitimate users.
But Canadian artist groups say that kind of argument amounts to fear mongering.
"I think a lot of people, including tech companies, are hiding behind these arguments of censorship. But I think the real reality is that they simply don't want to pay artists what they are worth," says McGuffin.
"The resistance isn't wrapped up in fears of censorship. It's fears of lost profit. It's just very profitable not to have responsibility over what happens on your platform," says writers' union director Degen.
Another controversial part of the European legislation is a so-called "link tax" that would charge sites such as Twitter a fee for using parts of articles and linking to news sites.

Economic Survey 2019: India stares at 21 million to-be-scrapped vehicles by 2025
In the Economic Survey 2019, the government of India has put vehicle scrapping in the priority sector for enhancing resource efficiency

India is the fourth-largest producer of automobiles in the world but does not have a vehicle scrapping policy in place.
But, in the Economic Survey 2019, the government of India has put vehicle scrapping in the priority sector for enhancing the resource efficiency.
"Studies estimate that Indian auto industry will consume around 70-80 million tonnes of iron and steel by 2030 which is around 70-80 per cent of the total steel production capacity in India. As India has a fragmented process of scrap collection, nearly six-seven million tonnes per annum of steel scrap are being imported," stated the survey.
As many as 21.8 million vehicles are expected to reach the end of life in six years, given the reducing average life of vehicle ownership. From around six-eight years, the average ownership period among car and two-wheeler buyers has shrunk to three-five years. A similar trend is visible in the used-car market.
"Research suggests around 21,895,439 vehicles will reach end of life by 2025 which would generate more than 10 million tonnes of steel scrap," added the survey.

As per data from the ministry of road transport and highways, there were 230 million registered motor vehicles in Indian roads in 2016, with the vehicle density per 1,000 people having tripled to 167.
In 2018, CERO – a joint venture between Mahindra Accelo and MSTC, a government of India enterprise under the Ministry of Steel – set a pollution-free recycling facility in Greater Noida. End-of-Life vehicles are collected, depolluted and dismantled at this facility.
"Various studies have analyzed the economic impact of effective resource efficiency strategy and identified that Rs 6000 crore can be saved in the manufacturing sector with its implementation. Estimates suggest that US$1 billion worth of gold can be extracted with mining of urban e-waste. Effective waste management policies can generate 14 lakh jobs and nearly US$2.7 billion opportunity can be created from the extraction of eight million tonnes of steel from the end of life vehicles," added the survey.

Extracting Cash From The Family Company – Income Or Capital?
When it comes to extracting funds from a family company, all routes are not equal and there are various options available. Careful tax planning is essential to ensure that the most tax-efficient strategy is adopted and professional advice should be sought in advance.
Income extraction
In the main, the income extraction debate centres on whether to attract profits in the form of a salary/bonus or in the form of a dividend. Dividends come with an associated tax credit of 10% and in the hands of the shareholder do not suffer a further tax charge until the basic rate band has been used up. Thereafter, a higher rate taxpayer pays tax at 32.5% on the grossed-up dividend. For an additional rate taxpayer, the rate is 37.5%. A further advantage associated with paying a dividend is that no National Insurance contributions (NICs) are payable by the employee or the employer.
However, dividends must be paid out of retained profits, so the company does not benefit from a corporation tax deduction, and must have sufficient retained profits to pay the dividend. The dividend must also be paid in accordance with the shareholdings.
By contrast, profits paid out by way of a salary or bonus are taxable at normal income tax rates once the personal allowance has been utilised (i.e. 20%, 40% or 45%) and are also liable to Class 1 NIC (i.e. employee and employer). However, the company benefits from a corporation tax deduction for both the salary or bonus payments and the employer's NIC.
A popular strategy is to pay a small salary (of between the Class 1 NIC lower earnings limit (£109 per week) and secondary threshold (£148 per week), and thereafter dividends until the remainder of the personal allowance and basic rate limit has been utilised).
It may also be worthwhile to consider alternatives, such as pension contributions or tax-free expenses and benefit, or (to the extent that this is possible) capital.
Capital extraction
The benefits of extracting capital rather than income stem from the fact the rates of capital gains tax (CGT) (at 18% and 28%) are much lower than the rate of income tax (at 20%, 40% and 45%). A further advantage is that the availability of the CGT annual exemption, currently set at £10,900, makes it possible to extract capital up to this limit without triggering a CGT bill.
However, despite the obvious attractions associated with extracting capital, options for capital extraction are severely limited if the company is on-going. While selling shares back to the company is a possibility, there are pitfalls and advance clearance that the capital treatment will be forthcoming should be sought from HMRC.
Practical Tip :
Professional advice should be sought to help achieve an optimal extraction policy. Whilst capital extraction can be attractive in theory (particularly once dividends have been extracted to the basic rate limit), in practice options for capital extraction while the company is ongoing are severely limited.
However, if the company is to close, the options for taking capital are wider. A further benefit is the availability of entrepreneurs' relief (which reduces the rate of CGT to an attractive 10% on gains up to £10 million) provided that the associated conditions are met.
Where a company is to be closed down it is also possible to extract accumulated profits as capital rather than as a dividend. However, it is now only possible to take this route if retained profits are not more than £25,000 without formally liquidating the company, as the capital distribution treatment is capped at £25,000 on the dissolution of the company in the absence of a formal winding up.

CAN I REPLACE THE HALOGEN LIGHT SOURCE TO LED?
All 230V are directly interchangeable. 12V Halogen lamps are powered by either an electronic transformer or an iron core transformer.
Therefore, there are several reasons why the old halogen lamp transformers do not work with LED lights.
3. Constant current or constant voltage.
5. Not as easy to dimmable halogen, very small tolerances in the technology.
Led spotlights require another type of converter, then a led transformer. When switching from halogen to led lights, you also have to replace the old transformer with one that is intended for LEDs. "
HOW DO I CHANGE CORD, PARTS OR COMPONENTS ON MY LUMINARIES?
We do not recommend replacing cables or components in any of our luminaires.
Please turn to a dealer or electrician, for help with that.
- interventions like this should be done by one skilled in the art.
- The warranty does not apply when you make changes on the luminaires like this.
THE DIMBLE LUMINAIRES DOSE NOT WORK WITH MY DIMMER WHY?
There is currently no standard that allows all dimmable LEDs to work together with all available dimmers. We always recommend doing a test to know that your lamp is working with the dimmer you have.
Then there are also limitations on how many and what kind of lamps can be connected to a dimmer. The recommendation is also here to test.Sometimes settings can be made on the dimmer to achieve a result. It is then also normal that a faint sounding noise comes from the dimmer.
I HAVE BOUGHT TREE LIGHT SOURCES (SAME ARTICLE NUMBER) IT´S A DIFFERENT IN THE COLORS OF THE LIGHT, WHY?
Deviations in different copy of light sources are normal. It is still more frequent at LED than incandescent lamps, but the quality is constantly improving at LED. A quality measure used to measure these deviations is SDCM. It stands for "Standard Deviation of Color Matching" and is sometimes called MacAdam.
The color of the light can also change over time in parallel as the brightness deteriorates. A lamp has a life span that you can often read on the packaging of the light source.
LED LUMINIARS I THINK SHOULD NOT BREAK, BUT MY LAMPA HAS, WHY?
An LED lamp shall last for many years, but there are several factors that can affect life expectancy and can cause the lamp to break prematurely.
• High heat reduces life expectancy. Always ensure good ventilation around the lamp.
• Poor power quality affects all electronic devices. This can be particularly noticeable if you live in the countryside or near a transformer station. A thunderstorm nearby may also cause voltage peaks that damage or destroy the lamp.
• Mechanical impact naturally affects the lamp and it is not certain that it is immediately noticeable. Immediately after you dropped a lamp in the ground, it may still work, but inside the lamp, a component is still damaged so that will make it stop working after a certain period of time.
• Other things can of course also affect life expectancy.
DO YOU LEAVE ANY WARRANTY ON YOUR LIGHTS?
We have 2 years product warranty on all our lamps as well as an extended component warranty on LED modules in LEDs with integrated LED up to 5 years from the time of purchase.
The warranty does not include incorrect installation, assembly, according. assembly instructions or not performed professionally, improper storage or handling, product modifications, external damage or lightning strikes.
WHERE CAN I FOUND THE ARTICLE NUMBER ON MY LUMINARIE?
Locate the type label on the luminarie, you will find information such as batch number and item number.
DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH DIMMABLE YOUR LED LUMINARIE?
In the case of dimmer problems, many believe that the LED is the problem, but usually it is not. When purchasing an LED lamp, first of all, make sure it is dimmable and check which type of dimmer it is intended for. A distinction is made between front edge dimmers (LR) and rear dimmers (CR).
Even if you have realized that the LED light is dimmable and the type of dimmer it is intended for, you can still experience the dimming not working or not working optimally - usually because the light flicker, the dimming does not optimally continuously, the dimming is limited or that there is a buzzing sound. The problem may be that the dimmer is not charged with the specified minimum load (too few lights), or too much load (too many lights) connected to the dimmer. Therefore, it is important to investigate which minimum load the dimmer requires, for example, to determine if the 6W LED above the dining table can be dimmed as desired with the dimmer you are considering buying.
If your LED light is blinking at regular intervals, it may also be because of your dimmer - even if it turned off – it will sends some power to the light source. Today the LED is so effective that it tries to light even in low current. Therefore, the LED light can also wake up and "recharge" at very low power levels, and then discharge the charged power as a small flicker at regular intervals.
Therefore, always ask your dealer about what kind of dimmer the LED can be used with, some dimmers can damage the lamp. Also, find out if the number of lights you will use with the dimmer, check out the total wattage that exceeds the dimmer's minimum load.

Holiday Figure
Best Known As:
The fictional symbol of Easter
The Easter Bunny is a jaunty symbol of the annual Christian holiday of Easter. Easter marks the day that, in the Christian tradition, Jesus of Nazareth rose from the grave after his crucifixion. The Easter Bunny is a secular symbol of the holiday. According to tradition, the Easter Bunny makes his visit every year, scattering brightly-colored eggs as he goes. (In many families, "Easter egg hunts" are held where children search for eggs or candy hidden by their parents.) The origins of the Easter Bunny aren't clear; the first recorded references to him (as "Oschter Haws") are generally agreed to have come from Germany in the 1500s. In ancient times the rabbit was a symbol of fertility, equated with springtime and renewal of life, and the hare was also associated with the moon, whose cycles determine the precise date of Easter each year. Over time these traditions presumably merged with the annual celebration of Easter itself, and now the Easter Bunny is associated with Easter in much the same way that Santa Claus is the secular symbol of Christmas.
Extra Credit:
In America, the White House Easter Egg roll has been a nearly-annual tradition since 1878, with kids flooding the mansion grounds to hunt eggs and mingle with the president.

Home Electronics News TRUMPF Unveils New Micro-processing Lasers
TRUMPF unveils new micro-processing lasers
The TruMicro family tree branches out to new lasers based on different technology platforms // new slab tech enables high-energy, ultrashort pulses // wavelengths available for varying needs
High-tech company TRUMPF unveiled the next generation and new lines of its TruMicro ultrashort pulse lasers (USP) earlier this year. The two TruMicro 6000 and TruMicro 2000 product families feature new technology platforms to boost power and enhance versatility. Ultrashort pulsed lasers see frequent use in electronics manufacturing, where they serve to produce printed circuit boards, displays and the like.
"With the two new generations of our TruMicro lasers, we are expanding our micro-processing product portfolio and offering solutions suited to satisfy the market's ever more challenging demands," says Steffen Rübling, the product manager responsible for TRUMPF's TruMicro lasers. "With the benefit of powerful infrared lasers, we are able to convert both the TruMicro 2000 and the TruMicro 6000 to green and ultraviolet wavelengths while maintaining the high beam quality. This enables us to offer the USP laser best suited to the customer's use case. With 100 watts, the next-generation TruMicro 2000 is the most powerful industrial ultrashort pulse fiber laser. The TruMicro 6000 offers up to 200 watts at pulses in the femtosecond range for even higher performance," says Rübling.
TruMicro 6000 featuring new slab technology
The next-generation TruMicro 6000 is based on slab technology.
Based on slab technology, the next-generation TruMicro 6000 can be deployed in various industries for use cases ranging from cutting to drilling. The active medium, a crystal that amplifies laser light, looks like a tile or slab, hence the name. The laser light travels through the slab, zigzagging between its two end faces. The slab's advantage is that this active medium is very conducive to cooling, which enables high pulse energies at high repetition rates. With pulse energies of several millijoules, this is an excellent tool for modifying glass up to six millimeters thick and for drilling.
The ultrashort pulses reduce thermal stress on highly sensitive materials. High peak pulse power levels enable excellent quality paired with maximum productivity.
TruMicro 2000 – an extremely versatile tool
The next-generation TruMicro 2000 earns highest marks in its category with an average power output of up to 100 watts.
The next-generation TruMicro 2000 earns high marks in its category with an average power output of up to 100 watts. All that power accelerates the machining process. The fiber-based TruMicro 2000's parameters such as pulse duration, repetition rate and pulse energy can be variably adjusted within milliseconds to suit a wide range of use cases. Individual pulses' energy and duration remain remarkably stable. These pulses can serve many purposes, for example, to cut highly sensitive medical products such as stents, to machine surfaces and to mark a wide variety of materials ranging from glass and plastics to corrosion-resistant metals. The new TruMicro 2000's compact, lightweight design is one selling point. Another is that the new lasers may be used with an LLK-U, a fiber optic cable for ultrashort pulse lasers based on hollow-core fibers. This type of cable makes it so much easier to apply ultrashort pulses in industrial use cases. The hollow-core fiber enables laser light to take a stable, simple path from the beam source to the optics and then straight to the part without having to be redirected by a complex free-beam guide or several deflection mirrors.

Yahoo's spectacular data breaches — and the company's responses to them — have generated more than two dozen lawsuits, and now allegedly affected users are coming out worldwide to sue the flailing Sunnyvale tech giant.
In the latter part of last year, Yahoo announced two record-setting data breaches, of at least 500 million accounts then of more than a billion accounts. The company also said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing that it knew of the 500-million-account hack for nearly two years before revealing it.
The breaches, according to Yahoo, happened in 2013 and 2014, with the first one the largest.
Yahoo's stunning announcements about the hacks were issued in the midst of its $4.8 billion sale to Verizon, which remains in limbo.
Users from across the U.S. have filed class-action lawsuits against Yahoo over the breaches and the firm's responses to them. On Jan. 4, the legal action went global, with eight plaintiffs from around the world filing a class-action suit in U.S. District Court in San Jose.
Several of the plaintiffs alleged their stolen Yahoo data was used by bad actors.
Three plaintiffs in the suit are from Israel, and there's one each from Armenia, Panama and Kosovo.
Meanwhile, Verizon Executive Vice President Marni Walden said Thursday her firm remained undecided about going through with the $4.8 billion purchase of Yahoo.
"Unfortunately, I can't sit here today and say with confidence one way or the other because we still don't know," Walden said at an investor conference, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Walden said Verizon was still looking into the effects of the billion-account breach, the WSJ reported.

This research focused on the effects of previous crop, fertilization and irrigation on the Leaf Area Index (LAI) and relative chlorophyll content (SPAD) of maize and the amount of yield in three different crop years. We were also looking for the relations between these parameters. As an average of the three years, the year, the crop rotation, the irrigation and the fertilization had a 3.5%, 29.8%, 21.5% and 45.2% share in the yield, respectively. The maximum SPAD-values were measured at tasseling and silking periods depending upon the year. In all three crop rotation models, significant differences were found between the control and the fertilization levels of N120-180+PK. As a result of irrigation, an increasing trend can be observed in the SPAD. The maximum LAI were measured at the 12-leaf or tassel depending on the period of the year. The dynamics and maximum value of the LAI were significantly determined by fertilization. Crop rotation had a strong effect, though it varied with the year. There were no significant differences in leaf area between the irrigated and the non-irrigated treatments. The fertilization had the strongest impact (r = 0.533–0.723) on yield among the agrotechnical elements. The correlation between the crop rotation and the yield was significant but weak (r = 0.336–0.423), while irrigation had a loose, non-significant correlation with yield in 2011 and 2012. In 2013, irrigation had a greater influence on the yield than in 2011 and 2012 (r = 0.497).

Q: Why Is String Formatting Causing a Casting Exception? Why does (String/format "%8s" (Integer/toBinaryString 6)) result in a java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to [Ljava.lang.Object casting exception?

A: I don't know Clojure, but I suspect that's trying to call the method as if it were the Java:
String.format("%8s", Integer.toBinaryString(6));

but without the varargs support. I suspect you want:
(String/format "%8s" (into-array Object (Integer/toBinaryString 6)))

See this mailing list thread for more information from people who actually do know Clojure :)

A simple man, no worries me.
Not much conversation ever came from me.
Maybe I've been lying on your couch too long.
In Please Read Me, the group's contribution to the recording is clear, as the voices mimic rather closely harmonies that had been made by the Beatles and the Beach Boys, while at the same time not producing a copy or a parody. The break is made up entirely of these harmonies, singing a different melody than the lyric. Backup musician Vince Malouney seems to have introduced a sighing guitar tenor sound to the record, a variation on the flattened sound of Red Chair Fade Away.
The singer depicts himself as a simple man who has lost himself in complexity. He never used to lie, and now apparently finds it difficult to know when he is lying and when he's not. He was a quiet man, a reclusive man who preferred movies and TV to the outside world. He begs for the good doctor to see him through his entire personal narrative and help him figure it out. Some momentous event (drugs? a woman? a death?) changed the singer from the person he thought himself to be. Why the twist in the plot? And how does the singer return to simple innocence again? Evidently psychiatry could be of little help, for psychedelic music wouldn't seek the advice of a psychiatrist again.

The Environmental Defenders Office (EDO) is an environmental law practice operating in the Australia Pacific Region. Our vision is a world where nature thrives. We seek to achieve that vision by providing legal solutions for peoples, nature and our climate. We are the largest organisation of our kind in the Region. The EDO has a presence in every capital city in Australia and a network of clients and partner organisations throughout the Pacific. In late 2019, the eight pre-existing EDOs merged to form a single regional EDO to provide a formidable public interest law presence in the environmental space in the region.
In May this year, the newly established National EDO Board endorsed a new national strategy for 2020-2023. Working with, and on behalf of First Nations and Indigenous Peoples, was seen by both staff and directors to be a key aspect of the direction the organisation wants to take as a newly formed national organisation. Goal 3 of our Strategic Plan recognised this ambition and provides the organisation will: Support First Nations and Indigenous Peoples to protect their Country/Land, and centre understanding of and respect for their perspectives in our work.
Our commitment to diversity:
The EDO is an newly formed organisation, but one with a 30 year legacy of helping people to use the law to protect the environment. We are a welcoming organisation committed to building an organisation where everyone in our EDO community feels they belong. This encompasses both who we are and how we act. EDO believes in embodying the principles of justice, equity, diversity and inclusion (JEDI) and understands that environmental justice in inextricably linked to those principles. EDO is committed to the journey and ongoing commitment required to embody those principles.
We're looking for a strategic thinker, where developing the right case for support is like their second nature and who can deliver effective results for a team with an ambitious budget. You will need to be enthusiastic, flexible and have the maturity to work autonomously and will most likely be working on multiple competing projects at once.
At a personal level you will have a good work ethic, resilience, tenacity and compassion. You will also be comfortable collaborating.
Our Strategy – First Nations and Indigenous Peoples:
Strategic Goal: To Support First Nations and Indigenous Peoples to protect their Country/Land, and centre understanding of and respect for their perspectives in our work (the Strategic Goal).
The above high-level goal is supported by three strategic objectives:
To understand the Region's true history, First Nations' sovereignty and the central role First Nations and Indigenous peoples play in the protection and restoration of nature.
To ensure staff have the necessary skills to assist and empower First Nations and Indigenous peoples to protect their Country/Land.
To establish trusting relationships and long-term partnerships with First Nations and Indigenous peoples and organisations.
EDO is regionally focused, and our International Program also works in the Pacific, partnering with local organizations to advocate for the rights of local and Indigenous communities in the environmental context.  In this regard, the Program is intended to also contribute to and enhance the work that we do there.  We have used First Nations to refer to the Australian context.
To deliver on the Strategic Goal, EDO is developing a new First Nations and Indigenous Peoples Program ("the Program"). The Program is intended to lead within the organisation on the achievement of the Strategic Goal.  The Program will ultimately be led by a Director role, which will sit in the organisation's Executive Team, and will be a First Nations identified position, but the Program itself will be both Australia and Pacific focused.
EDO seeks to engage a consultant(s) to play the crucial and exciting role of leading – along with our internal working group – the development of the Program's design and to helping to put it on a course that ensures it is established in an appropriate way and such a way as to help ensure the Program's ultimate success.
The successful candidate(s) (we are open to two people working collaboratively on the project) will primarily be charged with preparing a comprehensive report on the design of the Program, allowing the EDO to make the best possible decisions we can in establishing the Program (the Report). The successful candidate will also help to advise the EDO on interim steps we can take as an organisation to deliver on Goal 3 of the Strategic Plan.
The Report will – among other things – provide:
A review and gap analysis of existing EDO polices, procedures and practices and existing staff/institutional skills and capacity relating to engaging and working with First Nations and Indigenous Peoples, and identification of new policies, procedures and practices and skills and capacity that are a priority for development.
The identification and analysis of different "models" for the overarching design of the Program and inclusion in the Program to guide the EDO in its delivery of the Strategic Plan and guide the position description for the newly established Director, First Nations and Indigenous Peoples Program.
A framework setting out options to evaluate the success of the Program.
Analysis of the resourcing needs of the Program.
A recruitment plan for the Director, First Nations and Indigenous Peoples Program.
A detailed scope of work will be provided to candidates expressing an interest in the role. The consultant will report to the Chief Executive Officer.
Our internal working group:
To support the development of this Program, EDO has created a First Nations and Indigenous Peoples' Working Group ("the Working Group"), which is chaired by Fleur Ramsay.  Fleur is Samoan, an experienced litigator with expertise in Indigenous rights and Special Counsel in our International Program.  The Working Group also includes Daniel Thompson who is Gamilaroi and works with EDO as a Paralegal in the Citizens Representation Program while he is undertaking his law degree at UNSW.   The Working Group also currently comprises:
David Morris – CEO
Nicole Sommer – Director of Environmental Justice
Lauren Butterly – Senior Solicitor
Gillian Duggin – Managing Lawyer, Darwin Office
Kirstiana Ward – Managing Lawyer, Cairns Office
The Working Group will support the work of the consultant(s) throughout the project.
This is a Program and Organisational Building Program. We are building a key component of our organisation's future. As such, we are looking for an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander (or group) with:
Creativity, vision and a passion for the work of the EDO.
The ability to think clearly and originally about the opportunity for the EDO in designing the Program.
Expertise in best practice engagement with First Nations people/communities/organisations
Strong analytical skills to gather and organise information and resources, compile and prepare data, and synthesize knowledge from diverse sources of information.
A strong understanding the complexities of an environmental law organisation seeking to establish a First Nations and Indigenous Peoples Program – and an understanding of, or ability to research and analyse – the dynamics where lawyers have successfully supported communities in environmental struggles.
Demonstrated ability to work with a diverse range of stakeholders.
Working knowledge of international law norms and rights of Indigenous peoples. (Desirable)
Working knowledge of Australia's environmental and cultural heritage legal frameworks. (Desirable)
Legal, social-legal or multidisciplinary experience.
Expected scope and duration of assignment:
EDO estimates that the consultant will be required for a minimum of 45 days in 2020/21 Financial Year. The ultimate duration of the Project and timelines for output delivery will be determined by agreement between the EDO and the consultant(s).
Fees: By agreement with the EDO.


ETH Zurich has installed the world's first lightweight concrete slab with 3D sand printer moulds in its future-oriented research building, the DFAB House in Zurich Dübendorf. Poraver® expanded glass was used as lightweight aggregate for the special glass fiber reinforced concrete formulation for the so-called Smart Slab.
Concrete as a building material offers almost unlimited possibilities in the design of architectural elements. This range has been considerably extended in recent years by the invention of 3D printing. Now a research group led by Prof. Benjamin Dillenburger from ETH Zurich has proven that the possibilities of modern architecture with concrete are far from exhausted. The researchers developed a technique to produce moulds for shotcrete elements using the 3D sand printing process. The new completely digitized construction method enables the fabrication of highly optimized concrete components with complex ornamental structures and combines the excellent structural properties of concrete with the geometrical freedom of 3D printing.
All injection moulds for the complex ceiling elements of the Smart Slab were created and optimised on the computer. This enabled massive material savings. The software specially developed for production calculated the exact amount of concrete required for each point of the entire construction in order to guarantee sufficient stability. As a result, the Smart Slab, which has a total area of 78 m2, weighs only 15 tons and is only 20 mm thick at the thinnest points. Thanks to the new construction method, about 70 percent of the weight is saved compared to a concrete slab in traditional design.
Special lightweight concretes with and without glass fibre reinforcement were used, which combine low weight with high strength. In order to achieve the required low concrete density of around 1,350 kg/m3, Poraver expanded glass was used as lightweight aggregate. The industrially produced granules of recycled glass offer consistent quality and considerably reduce the density of the concrete. The slab consists of a total of eleven concrete segments and connects the basement with the two-storey wooden building above in the NEST research and innovation building of Empa and Eawag in Dübendorf.
Bürgin Creations Switzerland was responsible for the technical realisation of the Smart Slab ceiling. In 2016, Bürgin built the art installation "Incidental Space" by architecture professor Christian Kerez in the Swiss Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Also in this case Poraver® was the perfect filler for the concrete formulation. Thanks to the polymer shotcrete with Poraver® expanded glass developed by Theo Bürgin, the wall thickness of the elements could be reduced to only 1 to 4 centimetres and with sufficient stability. The positive properties of the modern concrete formulation were tested and confirmed by fracture tests and static studies carried out by Prof. Dr Joseph Schwartz at the ETH Zurich. Thanks to the innovative concrete formulation, the total weight of the 220 elements for the "Incidental Space" was only around 8 tons.

Glass fibre reinforced lightweight concrete is sprayed in several layers onto the 3D-printed formwork.
In 2016 Bürgin already used Poraver® expanded glass to improve the special concrete formulation for the "Incidental Space" art installation at the Venice Biennale.
A total of 220 individual elements were produced for the art object at the Biennale.

Producer and poet plot 'Secret' Franklinton arts space
Andy Downing Editor, Columbus Alive @andydowning33
Aug 2, 2019 at 1:45 PM Aug 2, 2019 at 3:06 PM
Recording engineer Keith Hanlon and writer Amy Turn Sharp collaborate with Secret Studio, a multi-use arts space coming to Franklinton sometime in the near future
In the 1999 Tom Waits song "What's He Building?" the narrator stands outside another's dwelling, mystified by whatever is taking place inside. "Now what's that sound from underneath the door?" Waits asks in his Crypt Keeper drawl as the music mimics the various bangs, moans and creaks that are giving the central character pause.
When recording engineer Keith Hanlon first set about developing his own studio space, he envisioned a similar feel. "I had it in my head I wanted this nondescript warehouse somewhere out of the way where no one would know what was going on in there," said Hanlon, who does most of his work as a freelance engineer at Musicol Recording.
But about a year ago, Hanlon was drinking at Dick's Den with poet Amy Turn Sharp, and the conversation turned to one of collaboration, with the two envisioning a multipurpose space suited not only to their own needs, but to those of the arts community at large, comprising a recording studio, a room for writing workshops, readings or music performances, space for visual art, plus a booth for creating podcasts, which combine the worlds of words and recording within which they each dwell. Befitting the Dick's Den location, the pair thought, "Why not?"
Those boozy dreams have more recently become reality, with the two signing a lease on a Franklinton space on Walnut Street located near the Vanderelli Room and the new, recently announced expansion of Wild Goose Creative. Dubbed Secret Studio, the name and location exist as a middle ground between Hanlon's initial vision of a hidden lair and input from Turn Sharp, who, seated next to Hanlon for the interview, said of the early brainstorming sessions, "Keith, we're going to have a giant sign!"
The concept for the space is in continual development, too, fueled both by the pair's collective imagination and the suggestions of friends. Turn Sharp noted that one acquaintance emailed, writing, "I want to have a record club instead of a book club," during which participants could listen to and discuss a particular album, to which Turn Sharp responded, "You may!"
"I think it will focus on art, but I would like it to focus on a lot on the written word — that might be songwriting or poetry workshops," Turn Sharp said. Recording will also be central to the space, with Hanlon building out a studio equipped to capture musicians in either digital or analog formats. Hanlon will also continue his relationship with Musicol, and sees the two spaces complementing one another.
"I have my clients and sometimes we do things at Musicol and sometimes we do things elsewhere a little more DIY," he said. "Musicol has been around for 50 years, and still people call every day to book time there. … I'm not trying to compete with that. [Secret Studio] will be supplemental."
Though the lease is signed, the space is currently a blank canvas, and the two aren't sure how long build-out could take, though both sounded optimistic it could be up and running early in 2020, if not before.
In that time, both envision ideas for the space to continue to evolve, which is a part of the allure of the venture.
"We'll be adapting to the music and arts communities," Hanlon said. "We arrive with something we have in mind, but we'll also learn what people want to do and see if we can accommodate them."
"I think right now we're just getting over the hump of realizing, 'This is happening. We're doing it,'" Turn Sharp said. "The train is in motion, and now we get to spend time creating and ideating and brainstorming."
What are they building in there?
What aren't they?
Correction: Wild Goose is expanding with a second location in Franklinton and not relocating.
