High response to NSE 2021: Leiden students fairly satisfied despite coronavirus
Published on 23 June 2021
Leiden students are fairly satisfied with their degree programme. This is clear from the first results of the National Student Survey 2021, which was held this spring. The scores are somewhat lower than the national average. Students are most positive about their lecturers, their contact with them and the content and format of their degree programme.
High response
An impressive 14,459 Leiden students – 4,105 more than last time – completed the National Student Survey 2021, a response percentage of 45. In an online questionnaire students said how satisfied they were with different aspects of the teaching at their university. The survey was taken by students from Leiden University between 23 January and 14 March 2021. Nationally over 840,000 students from research universities and universities of applied sciences were invited to take the survey, and 39% did.
Positive about lecturers
The results of the NSE are positive in many areas, which is good news, particularly in these exceptional times. Leiden students give their degree programme a general mark of 3.82 on a five-point scale. The scores on the six core themes were between 3.04 and 3.89. The core themes are: content and format, connections to professional practice/career, lecturers, guidance/counselling, examinations and assessment, and engagement and contact. Like students elsewhere in the country, Leiden students are most positive about the content of their programme and about their lectures. They are significantly more positive about their lecturers than the national average for this theme. For instance, about how the lecturers are experts on their subject, are inspiring and know a lot about the professional practice. The score for engagement and contact is also high (3.88), which says a lot about the lecturers' commitment in this time of hybrid teaching.
We want to thank all 14,459 students for taking the effort to complete the NSE! And the staff who helped achieve this high response rate. Thanks to your efforts the university will be able use the results for its study guidance and quality assurance. The high response make the results even more reliable. What is more, the university donated €0,25 per respondent to the LUF's #wakeuptocorona crowdfunder, which resulted in grand total of €3,637.75.
Leiden students are fairly satisfied
Although Leiden students are fairly satisfied with their degree programme, they are less satisfied with just over half of the general topics than the students from other universities. Nearly all of Leiden's scores are below the national average. That is nothing new – our university has had somewhat lower scores than the national average for several years ago. As a university we take this very seriously and will continue to work to improve student satisfaction and the quality of our teaching. This is through initiatives such as the Leiden vision on teaching and learning, 'Learning@LeidenUniversity'. One of the ambitions of the vision is employability enhancement, which we are trying to achieve by helping the degree programmes put together a complete range of career preparation activities.
Results by degree programme and faculty
A breakdown of the results per degree programme will now be prepared and sent to the faculties and degree programmes. The results will then be further analysed and decisions taken on any follow-up activities. This is primarily a task for the quality assurance staff at the faculties, but the programmes committees also play an important role here. You will hear from your faculty and degree programme about what has emerged about your degree programme from the NSE, and how the positives will be strengthened and how any areas for improvement will be addressed. It is worth noting that in our efforts to improve our teaching we don't just look at the NSE. Tools such as course and programme evaluations, and information from the participation councils also give us an idea of what is going well in our teaching and what needs more attention.

A new rigid gas-permeable semi-scleral contact lens for treatment of corneal surface disorders
W Vreugdenhil, A J Geerards, C J Vervaet
Some extreme corneal irregularities cannot be treated adequately with corneal contact lenses. For such cases a rigid semi-scleral lens can be prescribed. We evaluated the use of a highly gas permeable rigid semi scleral lens in patients with diseased corneas for whom conventional contact lens strategies had failed. Twenty two patients (29 eyes) were successfully fitted with individually manufactured semiscleral lenses. Corneal hypoxia, which has previously limited the use of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) scleral contact lenses, did not occur. The semi scleral lenses were well tolerated. Two cases were selected to illustrate the fitting of these lenses.

One of our local neighbors here in Logan, Utah treated one field of silage corn as a test to compare against an adjacent field that was untreated. They used our Dry Seed Treatment for Corn and mixed it with the seed before planting. Both fields received the same fertilizer, same watering schedule, and the same rainfall (or lack of it). We started with a very wet spring and then quickly transitioned to a very hot and dry summer. These pictures were taken at the beginning of August, 2017.
For other comparisons from 2017, visit Treated seeds vs Untreated results - 2017.
Let's start with the ears. The ultimate measure of a plant's health is the reproductive results. As you can easily see, the treated ear on the left is much longer than the untreated ear.
The treated field is thicker, taller, and more vigorous while the untreated field is thinner, shorter, and will yield significantly less sileage than the treated field.
The treated corn leaves are also significantly wider than the untreated leaves. This provides much more photosynthetic area for even greater plant growth and nutrient conversion.
Below are some pictures of comparable stalks from just before harvest. The treated stalk on the left is thicker and greener than the untreated stalk.
As the season drew to a close and the farmer prepared to harvest the corn, we went back out into the field and dug up one treated plant and one untreated plant. We wanted to see the difference in the root systems and also get some weights and final measurements.
In the picture at the left, you can see Tyler holding both plants. The treated stalk on the left is 26 inches taller than the untreated stalk. In the root picture, you can also see the root system on the treated stalk (left) is significantly larger than the untreated stalk (right).
As a final plant measurement, we cut each stalk off at 6" above the root to simulate harvest and then we weighed the stalk and ear without the root. We also weighed the ear from each plant (both plants had one ear).
As soon as the farmer completes the harvest, we will update this article with the tonnage yield for each field as well.
Every indicator points to the greater growth and success of the treated plants as compared to the untreated plants. If you want similar results, treat your seed before you plant. You will see greater germination, better growth, less disease, greater stress tolerance, and greater yields. Call us at 435-753-2086.

Corruption: FBI - Former Executive Director of Virgin Islands Legislature Charged with Bribery and Extortion
WASHINGTON—The former executive director of the legislature of the Virgin Islands was indicted today by a federal grand jury in the Virgin Islands for accepting bribes and engaging in extortion in the award of contracts with the legislature, announced Acting Assistant Attorney General David A. O'Neil of the Justice Department's Criminal Division and U.S. Attorney Ronald W. Sharpe for the District of the Virgin Islands.
The indictment charges Louis "Lolo" Willis, 56, of St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, with three counts of federal programs bribery and three counts of extortion under color of official right.
According to the indictment, Willis was the executive director of the legislature between 2009 and 2012. One of his responsibilities included oversight of the renovation of the legislature building, which included awarding and entering into contracts on behalf of the legislature. These contracts included contracts for general construction, air conditioning services and carpentry, which were not publicly bid. Willis was also responsible for paying the contractors for their work. As alleged in the indictment, Willis accepted payments, including, among other things, thousands of dollars in cash, from three contractors in exchange for using his official position to secure contracting work for the contractors and to ensure they received payment upon completion.
An indictment is merely an accusation, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.
This case was investigated by the FBI's San Juan Division, the Office of the Virgin Islands Inspector General, and the Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation. The case is being prosecuted by Trial Attorneys Peter Mason and Jennifer Blackwell of the Criminal Division's Public Integrity Section and First Assistant U.S. Attorney Thomas Anderson of the District of the Virgin Islands.

...They hunted and gathered along the valley and the cool, clear waters of the river, which was given the indigenous name "Kiewa" meaning "sweet water". Many clans would travel great distances during the summer months to gather up on the Bogong Ranges and hunt the Bogong Moth, hold ceremonies and settle disputes. Victoria's highest mountain, Mount Bogong (1984m) situated at the head of the Kiewa Valley, takes its name from the Dhudhuroa word for "big moth" and was an important part of the summer time gathering of the clans.
The first known European visitors to the Kiewa Valley were explorers Hume and Hovell in November 1824. Following the drought of 1838-44, pastoralists sought out the rich pastures in the fertile Kiewa Valley. For the remainder of the 19th century the major industries of the Valley were cattle grazing, dairying, tobacco growing, timber harvesting and milling.
The Bogong High Plains became a popular summer grazing destination for many local cattlemen and women. Cows would be taken up to the high plains for the summer and then mustered together at the end of summer to come back down to the valley. Many of these farming families still farm in the Kiewa Valley today, however the cattle do not graze in the high plains now. Families such as the Edmondson's, Maddison's, Roper's (the first Roper's Hut pictured above) and Ryder's would stay in their huts during the "muster." Huts that bear their family names are still evident today. Tawonga Huts and Wallace's Huts are two of the oldest and most well known huts. Wallace' s Hut is the oldest surviving hut now classified by the National Trust. It was built by the Wallace brothers with Jack Platt, Kyram Maurum, and Andy Damn.
The next large increase in population was as a consequence of the Kiewa Hydro Scheme. In 1911 a private syndicate investigated the possibility of establishing a hydro-electric scheme.The Kiewa Valley became the site of the first major hydro-electric power development in the Victorian Alps and took 26 years from the original concept to open. The townships of Mount Beauty and Bogong Village were constructed by the Victorian State Electricity Utility Commission (SEC) from the 1930's to the 1950's to house workers on the Kiewa Hydro Electric Scheme. At its peak the Kiewa Scheme employed around 4000 people. Although these towns were built as temporary accommodation for the workers and their families, many stayed after the scheme finished. Combined with the influx of European migrants, with their rich cultural backgrounds, all played a major part in shaping the future character of the Mount Beauty, the Kiewa Valley and Falls Creek. The Bright Council, now the Alpine Shire took over the control of the township in 1960 and today Mount Beauty is one of the most complete company towns in Victoria.


RIDE YOUR MIND (RYM) is the PhD Project of GEElab student Jens M Stober. It is an artistic, hackish, neurofeedback, real-time virtual reality game or, in brief, a NeuroVR Game that forces the user's conscious to compete with his subconscious.
The Concept of RYM is based on a playful strategy for designing artistic games that is extracted from the history of hacking. Early hacks consisted of artistic and gameful content like algorithmic visualisations and interactive programs: that is, games.
The aim of RYM is to imbue the player with an awareness of his own brain as a consciously controllable tool comparable, for example, to his hand. It achieves this aim by forcing the player's conscious acting into competition with his subconscious acting; the player receives direct neuronal feedback showing him his unconscious brain activity, eliciting a whole new sensation of self. At the same time, the virtual reality environment as a void, allows the player to interact by moving his head, which, in turn, triggers further brain activity.
The RYM concept does not ignore the fact that the game experience is a highly intimate one in which personal sensory data is temporarily stored and processed. If the user does allow the data collected to be stored or even anonymously shared, it can be interpreted by medical experts and thereby serve as a contribution to cognitive neurological research. Running a game generated by neurological data in real time requires knowledge gleaned from medical research. In other words, the game itself entails a recontextualisation of medical knowledge into a gaming and art context. RYM uses knowledge and devices from the medical world to create an artistic and experimental form of entertainment.
The NeuroVR Game RYM is generated by neurofeedback collected by an EmotivEEG Brain Computer Interface (BCI). The game environment gets responsively designed by the actual neuronal data. An Oculus Rift Head-Mounted Display (HMD) displayes the playable visualisation of the users brain. The data will be processed using Unity3D and a specially developed Neurogame Design Toolchain for Unity3D by diploma candidate Iris Birnbaum from KIT / TECO.

Q: Extract characters occurring before one of several forbidden characters I want to discard all remaining characters in a string as soon as one of several unwanted characters is encountered.
As soon as a blacklisted character is encountered, the string before that point should be returned.
For instance, if I have an array:
$chars = array("a", "b", "c");

How would I go through the following string...
log dog hat bat

...and end up with:
log dog h

A: The strcspn function is what you are looking for.
<?php

$mask = "abc";

$string = "log dog hat bat";

$result = substr($string,0,strcspn($string,$mask));

var_dump($result);

?>

A: There is certainly nothing wrong with Vinko's answer and I might be more inclined to recommend that technique in a professional script because regex is likely to perform slower, but purely for a point of difference for researchers, regex could be used.
For the record, to convert the array of ['a', 'b', 'c'] to abc, just call implode($array) -- an empty glue string is not necessary.
Code: (Demo)  -- split in half on first occurrence of a|b|c, then access first element
echo preg_split('~[abc]~', $string, 2)[0];

Code: (Demo)  -- match leading substring of non-a|b|c characters, then access first element
echo preg_match('~^[^abc]+~', $string, $match) ? $match[0] : '';

I should state that if any of your blacklisted characters have special meaning to the regex engine while inside of a character class, then they will need to be escaped.

Venezuelan military attache in DC called 'traitor' after switching support from Maduro
Kiarinna Parisi, Taylor Barnes and Ray Sanchez
Venezuela's military attache in Washington, Col. Jose Luis Silva Silva, said he's breaking with President Nicolas Maduro and supporting Juan Guaido, the self-proclaimed interim president, provoking a swift response from defense leaders.
(CNN) — A Venezuelan military official publicly switched sides in the nation's power struggle on Saturday, provoking a swift response from defense leaders.
Venezuela's military attaché in Washington, Col. Jose Luis Silva Silva, told CNN that he's breaking with President Nicolas Maduro and supporting Juan Guaido, the self-proclaimed interim president.
"I stand by the roadmap of acting President Juan Guaido," Silva said on a video shared on social media.
Silva said the roadmap included "ceasing the usurpation of the executive power," the "beginning of a transition to a new government" and "free and transparent elections for all Venezuelans who want to participate."
That led the Venezuelan defense ministry to put out a critical tweet on the ministry's official account. The tweet showed a screen grab from the video of Silva declaring his defection with the word "TRAIDOR" (traitor) emblazoned over it.
"Insubordination in the face of international interests is an act of treason and cowardice with the fatherland inherited from our liberator Simon Bolivar. As such, we reject the declarations made by Col. Jose Luis Silva Silva, who was acting as military attaché in the United States," the defense ministry wrote on Twitter.
Also Saturday, the opposition-controlled National Assembly drafted an amnesty bill to protect military members who want to defect from the Maduro government. The measure would also offer pardons to civilians, politicians, public officials and military members accused during the governments of Hugo Chávez — who was President from 1999 to 2013 — and Maduro of committing crimes or supporting unconstitutional acts.
Lawmakers could vote on the bill as early as Tuesday.
Guaido has called on the nation's military to work with him, but the head of Venezuela's armed forces says he still supports Maduro.
Pompeo: It's time 'to pick a side'
The Venezuelan crisis was hotly debated Saturday on both sides of the Atlantic.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo urged the UN Security Council to stand behind Guaido's transitional government.
"Our nations must stand up for the rule of law and support the leader who the Venezuelan people have affirmed as their legitimate interim president," said Pompeo, calling for a new vote "as soon as possible."
"Now it's time for every other nation to pick a side. No more delays, no more games," Pompeo said. "Either you stand with the forces of freedom, or you're in league with Maduro and his mayhem."
Venezuelan Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza, also at the United Nations, repeated Maduro's assertion that the crisis amounted to a US-backed coup, with the blessing of other nations.
"It is dictating the orders, not only to the Venezuelan opposition but also to the satellite governments in the region and, it seems, in Europe and other parts of the world," he said of US policy.
In Venezuela, a prominent member of Maduro's ruling party delivered a blunt message to world leaders not on his side.
"Go to hell because nobody, nobody, nobody tells Venezuelans what to do," Diosdado Cabello, president of the government-aligned Constituent Assembly and a key figure in the ruling United Socialist Party, said at a rally Saturday in the Venezuelan state of Cojedes.
Guaido, who heads Venezuela's opposition-led National Assembly, emerged this week as the biggest challenge to Maduro's turbulent presidency. He declared himself acting president amid massive anti-government protests, claiming Maduro was illegitimately elected for a second term.
Opposition hints at talks with Maduro supporters
Earlier Saturday, UK Foreign Minister Jeremy Hunt joined Spain, Germany and France in delivering Maduro an ultimatum: Guaido will be recognized as president if elections are not called before their deadline.
The EU also warned of "further actions" against Venezuela if elections are not called in the coming days, according to a statement by Federica Mogherini, vice president of the European Commission and high representative of the EU for foreign affairs and security policy.
"The country urgently needs a government that truly represents the will of the Venezuelan people," she said.
At an opposition rally Saturday in Venezuela, Guaido hinted he has met with Maduro government officials.
"Of course, we have talked," Guaido said.
Referring to his amnesty offer to members of the armed forces, he added, "We can grant you protection. … Maduro can't."
Venezuelan Communications Minister Jorge Rodríguez said Friday that the opposition leader had met with Maduro-aligned politicians, including Cabello and Freddy Bernal, former mayor of the Libertador municipality in Caracas.
Guaido says movement won't 'fizzle'
Guaido made his first public appearance since his dramatic challenge to the regime. He said a massive rally planned for next week was intended to signal that his movement is gaining momentum.
"The people who think that we are going to fizzle, I think they are not going to be happy," he said. "There are people here in the streets for a long time."
Maduro appeared to leave open the possibility of a political solution Friday, signaling his willingness to sit down with the opposition to end the crisis.
"We believe that it's only possible through dialogue and diplomacy to find solutions to conflicts," he told reporters at the presidential palace, "not through violence or foreign interventions or coup attempts or war."
Deaths in protest-related violence
The crisis has taken this country facing a prolonged political and economic collapse to a new low point.
Pompeo said earlier this week that the United States will offer $20 million for food and medicine shortages "as soon as logistically possible."
A UN human rights official said Friday that at least 20 people had died in protest-related violence this week.
Security forces or members of pro-government armed groups allegedly shot the people during demonstrations Tuesday and Wednesday, UN human rights chief Michelle Bachelet said, citing "credible local sources."
More than 350 demonstrators have reportedly been detained this week, Bachelet's office said.
"I am extremely concerned that the situation in Venezuela may rapidly spiral out of control with catastrophic consequences," Bachelet said.
Venezuelan Observatory of Social Conflict, a nongovernmental organization, reported late Friday that 29 people have been killed in nationwide protests. The group said the count started at midnight Wednesday.
CNN could not independently confirm either count.
Pompeo told reporters Friday that he had appointed Elliott Abrams, former deputy national security adviser for President George W. Bush, to lead efforts to resolve the crisis. He said "all appropriate measures" were being taken to ensure the safety of US diplomats in Venezuela.
"Do not test the United States on our resolve to protect our people," Pompeo said Saturday at the United Nations.
Maduro has accused the United States of meddling and has given US diplomats until this weekend to leave his country.
At a presidential palace news conference, days after announcing he was cutting diplomatic ties, the President seemed to soften his stand. He said he had broken "political and diplomatic relations" with President Donald Trump but maintains other relations with the United States.
The United States is Venezuela's biggest and most important oil customer, accounting for 39% of the OPEC nation's deliveries last year, according to ClipperData.
In a statement Friday, the US Treasury Department said it plans to use economic and diplomatic tools to ensure any commercial transactions with the Venezuelan government are "consistent" with the US-recognized government of Venezuela led by Guaido.
Guaido wants Venezuelan diplomats to stay in US
All nonemergency US employees were ordered to leave Venezuela on Thursday, according to a security alert. Pompeo had earlier brushed off Maduro's order that US diplomats leave the country, saying the US doesn't recognize his power to do so.
The US Embassy in Caracas opened Thursday, but all visa appointments were canceled.
Late Thursday, Guaido called on Venezuelan diplomats to stay in the United States.
The opposition leader also said he would consider amnesty for Maduro and his allies if they don't hamper Guaido's ascension to temporary power. He has called for elections.
Countries divided over leadership crisis
While many world leaders expressed their support for Guaido this week, others stood behind Maduro.
Describing Maduro's regime as illegitimate, several countries, including the United States, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay and Peru, recognized Guaido as president.
Russia, China, Cuba and Turkey are among those backing Maduro — and Moscow in particular has accused the United States of undermining him.
Washington's interference in Venezuela could lead to "lawlessness and bloodshed," the Russian Foreign Ministry said.

Back pain is the leading cause of disability and is a common reason people miss work. Thankfully, there are steps that you can take to prevent or relieve back pain. In most cases, surgery is rarely needed to treat back pain.
You should contact a doctor as soon as possible if you have severe back pain that will not improve, pain that spreads down one leg, pain that causes weakness, of numbness in one or both legs, or if your back pain causes unexplained weight loss.
Acute back pain can occur suddenly and lasts less than six weeks, while chronic back pain lasts more than three months. Factors that commonly cause back pain include muscle or ligament strain, skeletal irregularities, arthritis, and osteoporosis. If you develop back pain that doesn't seem to have a specific cause, your doctors can run tests to help determine the cause.
Individuals who are overweight, do not exercise regularly, have certain diseases of psychological conditions, those who smoke, or those who improperly lift heavy objects are at a higher risk for back pain.
Acute back pain can often be treated at home with pain relievers such as ibuprofen and icing the area. If at-home treatments are not working after a couple of weeks, visit Ultra Med Urgent Care. One of our physicians will recommend a treatment plan for your back pain. Over-the-counter pain medications, muscle relaxants, narcotics, antidepressants, or cortisone injections may be used, depending on the cause of your back pain.
Contact Ultra Med Urgent Care today for treatment of your back pain. We serve patients in the Skokie and Evanston, Illinois areas.

With a wide creative network Petra Lilja has experience with designing and hosting various types of events to visionary innovation meetings, art museums and design venues and entertainment acts, as well as project managing of whole events conducting packaging, exhibition & interior design.
Petra Lilja was commissioned guest curator and designer of the exhibition of the Wood Oriented Furniture Design Programme at HDK / Steneby for the 2017 stand at Greenhouse, Stockholm Furniture Fair. This year's theme was Gatherings and the students had successfully explored the topic together with a linoleum material resulting in a series of smaller objects. Petra Lilja chose to work with Gatherings as of people around a table and displayed the designs on top of a large round table like podium consisting of to semi-circles in two heights. To fully mediate the inspirational materiality of the linoleum, a set of over-sized material samples leaning against the back wall served as information boards.
The exhibition design for " The Future is Handmade " was made inspired by a conveyer belt, symbolizing massproduction and industrialization of our era, juxtaposing the range of handmade objects from 46 designers, makers and crafts persons that it displayed. Petra Lilja also curated the exhibition, for and in collaboration with Kalmar Konstmuseum and Designarkivet. The exhibition was also showed at Form/Design Center in Malmö and Falkenbergs Museum, Sweden. Read more under Curating.
Together with Copenhagen based interior architect Johan Carlsson / JAC Studios, Petra Lilja made the exhibition design for the touring exhibition Shop Show that started at Form Design Center, Malmö in 2013. The exhibition travelled to Helsingfors/Finland, Reykjavik/Iceland, Kolding/Denmark, Oslo/Norway and Falkenberg/Sweden, 2013-2015. Shop Show is an exhibition about the relationship between consumption and production and that somebody always pays the price. Petra Lilja was also represented in the exhibition with her piece The Deconstructed Medusa Chair. Other designers include Marjan Aubel (Holland), Vik Prjonsdottir (Iceland) and Company (Finland) among others.
This exhibition was designed and curated by Petra Lilja in cooperation with the Embassies of Sweden and Finland in Bucharest and displayed during the Romanian Design Week, an annual event in Bucharest that promotes design and architecture. The idea behind the exhibition design was a smorgasbord of objects representing emerging tendencies in Scandinavian design. The large table was designed as an easy-to-assemble flat pack podium where upon the objects where elevated and placed on reflective mirror glass. Skilled carpenters manufactured the design in Bucharest. The idea behind a free-standing podium was to optimize long distance collaboration where important information like exact location and facilities could be subject for change and the designer not being able to visit the venue prior to the opening. Please read more about the exhibition under Curating.
Petra Lilja was commissioned by Framtidsgenerationen and Malmö Stadsteater to design the exhibition for The Malmö True Story – a project and a theater play involving the youth of Malmö and their stories. It was design mobile and collapsible for outdoor use at the Malmö Festival as well as for indoor use at Malmö Stadsteater and on tour.
For the launch of Konstitutet designer Petra Lilja created the Art and Design Talk Show – simply a new way to talk art and design with a lot of humor included. Set in a large workshop hall, the design, consisting of a 10meter long bar with integrated light and a stage, ironically drew inspiration from American TV-talk shows with a backdrop of the surrounding not-so-tall skylines of the Sofielund-area of Malmö. For the live show, art- and design critic Dennis Dahlqvist was hired for the role of the talk show host and Petra Lilja, as the side-kick and one-woman band delivered musical jingles as well as questions for the guests. Konstitutet is a platform and a forum for local design professionals and visual artists. The stage design was made in collaboration with graphic designers Matilda Plöjel and Lisa Olausson and carpenter Ed Menton.

Books for Burning
Between Civil War and Democracy in 1970s Italy
by Antonio Negri Edited by Timothy S. Murphy Translated by Arianna Bove, Ed Emery, and Francesca Novello
299 pages / October 2005 / 9781844670345
Subversive political writings by the acclaimed author of Empire.
Long before Antonio Negri became famous around the world for his groundbreaking volume Empire, he was infamous across Europe for the incendiary writings contained in this book. Books for Burning consists of five pamphlets that Negri wrote between 1971 and 1977, which attempt to identify and draw lessons from new conditions of class struggle that emerged in the course of the 1970s.
Conceived as organizational hypotheses intended for debate among the members of the political movements Workers' Power (Potere operaio) and Organized Autonomy (Autonomia organizzata), these texts were later misread and misrepresented by the Italian state in its attempt to frame Negri as responsible for the assassination of former Italian president Aldo Moro, as the leader of the Red Brigades, and as the mastermind of an armed insurrection against the state. In the more than twenty-five years since their first publication, these texts have lost none of their originality, relevance or power to shock.
In a new preface, Negri demonstrates how his controversial work on empire, biopolitics and immaterial labor developed out of concepts and strategies first outlined in this book, and an editorial introduction analyzes the role these texts played in Negri's trial and in the criminalization of the Italian radical workers' movement.

Montana Grizzly Bears Roaming Far Afield
Grizzlies from the Cabinet-Yaak and Selkirk ranges spotted in Washington and Idaho

Recent reports of Montana grizzly bears in Idaho and Washington show that bruins from the Big Sky are literally pushing boundaries.
According to Wayne Kasworm, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife grizzly manager in Libby, a 2-year-old, 476-pound male grizzly bear initially captured in the Selkirk Mountains wandered west of the Pend Oreille River and into Washington state last month.
The grizzly was originally captured near Rathdrum, Idaho and relocated to the Cabinet Mountains, but has recently been using habitat on the periphery of the Selkirk Mountains north of Bonners Ferry. Another 2-year-old grizzly bear originally captured in the Selkirks has moved southeast through the Cabinet-Yaak and recently lost its radio collar in the Fisher River. The bear traveled more than 125 miles from the Selkirks to its most southeasterly point.
"This is another example of bears moving from one recovery area to another," according to Kasworm, who added that ultimate population linkage is determined by reproduction and gene flow from one population to another, and evidence of reproduction between the different recovery areas has not been documented.
The Cabinet-Yaak and Selkirk recovery areas each hold about 55 grizzly bears in the remote mountains along the Canadian border with Montana, Idaho and Washington. They're dwarfed by the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem, which has an estimated 1,000 grizzlies in the mountains between Glacier National Park and Missoula.
Today, thanks largely to an augmentation program that Kasworm helped establish, there is an estimated 55-60 grizzly bears in the Cabinet-Yaak Ecosystem, with a projected growth rate of 2.1 percent annually.
That stands in contrast to the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem, which holds an estimated 1,000 grizzlies in the mountains between Glacier National Park and Missoula.
Grizzly bears are protected as a threatened species under the federal Endangered Species Act and cannot be hunted in the Lower 48 states.
About 750 grizzlies in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and surrounding Yellowstone National Park. That population was delisted from the Endangered Species Act in 2017, but a federal judge in Missoula reversed the delisting in September.
Under Kasworm's guidance, the Cabinet-Yaak augmentation program continues to be a success in an ecosystem that saw its grizzly bear population nearly vanish 30 years ago. In 1988, biologists estimated fewer than 15 grizzly bears remained in the Cabinet-Yaak, which spans approximately 1,000 square miles in the Yaak River drainage and 1,620 square miles in the Cabinet Mountains.
So far, the program has introduced 20 grizzlies into the Cabinet-Yaak Ecosystem.
Illustrating the intent and success of the program, the third bear moved through augmentation, a female in 1993, is responsible for at least 25 descendants through three generations. That female produced at least 10 first-generation offspring, which gave rise to at least 14 additional grizzly bears, and among those at least one offspring and counting.
The recovery goal is 100 grizzly bears in the Cabinet-Yaak and hopefully over time the animals will link with surrounding yet separate ecosystems, the Selkirk to the west, the Northern Continental Divide to the east, the Bitterroot to the south, and British Columbia to the north.
Part of the problem for bears increasing gene flow between the recovery areas is that the male grizzlies are moving between the main Cabinet Mountains and the Yaak during the fall rather than in spring, when breeding occurs. Another issue preventing reproduction could be the young bears aren't yet competitive enough to successfully mate.
Another problem unrelated to reproduction, but which Kasworm noted in a recent report on grizzly bear activity and augmentation, involved a 2-year-old bear released in the West Cabinet Mountains near Spar Lake as part of the augmentation program on July 21. The bear moved south from the release and crossed the Clark Fork River on Aug. 7, according to GPS tracking data from its collar. The bear remained south of the Clark Fork River until Sept. 3, when an Idaho resident reported a collared grizzly bear at a black bear bait site.
On Sept. 5, wildlife managers captured the bear and released it in the South Fork of the Bull River, but the bear returned to the bait site eight days later. Most recently, the bear has been monitored in Montana south and west of Heron
"Baiting of black bears during the black bear hunting season is not allowed in Idaho north of the Clark Fork River nor is it allowed at any time in Montana," Kasworm said. "The practice of baiting is at contrast with the policy of minimizing attractants for bears until the black bear season opens when these attractants become legal for the purpose of hunting black bears."
The bait site in this case used human foods and was within 500 yards of five homes and 1,000 yards of more than 20 homes.
According to Kasworm, three grizzly bears are known to have been killed in the area south of the Selkirks and Cabinet-Yaak since 2007. Two of those bears were killed at black bear bait sites.


How do I apply full cost of a vendor contract?
I have a project with say a budget of $100K. I purchase software under contract at a cost of $65K.
How do I account for that so it deducts from the allocated budget? I tried putting something into the expense area but it doesn't deduct. Thanks!
Is the $65k is being charged to the client? If so making it a fee will update the calculations. The expense is what the item costs you and isn't used in the project dashboard calculations since they do not include any costs. The fee is what is being passed onto the client and can include any markup. The "total work" value on the dashboard includes billable work and fees.
It's actually the cost I'm paying a software vendor for their product. So, there is no billable time and it's not a traditional "expense." The cost Is a big part of my budget for this project and so I'd really like to be able to reflect it in this software. Thanks for any help or ideas.
Intervals is very light on tracking expenses and profitability and is geared toward tracking revenues and what a client pays/owes. Intervals does not attempt to replace accounting software packages. Although work types / rates are meant to be a client facing hourly rate I know some people have spun it around and used the hourly rate as the cost per hour. When doing this all of the reports become cost centric instead of revenue centric. For non hourly items expenses are not used in any calculations at this time but they can be exported to a spreadsheet and manipulated. The project landscape report does show both expenses and fees. If you just need to keep track of a total per project that might be an option. After running the report if you click on the "budget & invoices" tab there are columns for budget, work, fees, expenses, payments, etc. If that doesn't do it depending on how you are using Intervals you might try adding it as a fee to see how it impacts the calculations and reports. The project activity report has an option to include fees and will show all fees for a project for a given time period.
Having cost vs. billable rate would be an awesome feature to add, and would help us manage projects in Intervals.
You are billing the customer a certain rate and you are paying your subcontractor another.
You have fixed costs that are part of the project.
It would be nice to be able to see how profitable a project is, and not just how much revenue it is making. You can have tons of revenue and go bankrupt because you are making a loss on every sale. Adding a cost field would easily allow calculations such as that.
Have to agree with WisTex on this one.
I often employ freelancers on a per-project basis and it would be fantastic to set their rate/hours in the budget somehow and have that deduct from the billable amount. Would mean it's easier to calculate the actual income per project.


We have three goats: Skippy, Cosmo and Chompy. Skippy is the oldest by a couple months and still slightly larger than the other two so he's the boss. Cosmo is the shaggy one and he can be rebelious at times. Chompy is the all white one, he's at the bottom of the pecking order and quite gregarious. They're all wethers (castrated males) with their horns removed so they're friendly and easy to handle. The girls and their friends love to play with the goats.
The original concept was that the goats would function as four legged mowers. We figured they would stay in the macadamia nut orchard and help trim down the areas that are too difficult to reach with the mower. We were hoping to avoid a repeat of this incident.
Goats aren't good with coffee trees because they eat all the coffee. In fact, it was supposedly a goat herder that first discovered coffee. He noticed that his goats jumped around and acted all hyper after eating coffee berries and figured "I gotta get me some of that!" I can't vouch for the goat herder's insight but I can attest that goats love to eat coffee. Goats love to eat just about everything.
I don't want the goats eating my coffee trees but I don't mind if they eat the macadamia nut trees. Macadamia nuts have the thickest shell of all nuts. Pigs and rats can eat the macadamia nuts (that's a whole other topic I don't even want to get started on) but few other animals can break through the shell. The goats mostly like to eat the branches. In the mac nut orchard that's a good thing because they help keep the trees trimmed up high enough that I can walk underneath. We take the goats out to the mac nut orchard in the mornings then bring them back to their pen by the house at night.
Goats love to climb and they love to ram and push on things. That combination makes them excellent escape artists. When our goats were younger the three foot fence I had hastily erected in the yard was enough to keep them in. Now that they're older they can climb right over that fence without hesitation. The goats had found and learned to exploit every weak spot in every fence we have. We had loose goats wandering the yard, eating everything in site, pooping everywhere and even finding their way into the house. It was time for some serious fence renovation.
It took two days and $200 but the goat pen now has a five foot fence that should hold the wildest of goats. I spent another couple days fixing the electric fence around the mac nut orchard. I put in a new gate and relocated part of the electric fence (hopefully I'll stop driving the tractor through it now). After wiring everything together and pulling it all tight, it seems to work great now.
An electric fence is considered a psychological barrier. When it's off animals can usually find their way through it easily. When it's on animals quickly learn to stay away from it. The fence can put out up to 8000 volts. That's one heck of a shock. Harmless but very, very memorable. When overgrown with weeds the fence looses its effectiveness. Anything below 3000 volts doesn't work too well. As you can see in the picture the fence is at 6,100 volts. The goats can still get through the fence if they're being chased but they'll normally stay away from it.
We're short on electrical outlets so the fence gets turned off any time I'm using power tools for barn construction. The fence doesn't need to be on to keep the goats in because they've already learned to stay away from the fence. The problem with turning the fence off is that other animals can get in. Wild pigs will eat all the macadamia nuts if I let them. We've also had problems with loose neighborhood dogs. With all the new fencing now, we shouldn't have any more unwanted guests or loose goats. The goats can go about their jobs as four-legged mowers in peace.

Expatriates worldwide
How many expats are there?
In 2010, more than 200 million people will be living abroad. While the number of worldwide expatriates increases, it is hard to quantify the exact size of the worldwide expatriate market.
Depending on the exact definition of expatriates, the following groups of international migrants can be counted as part of the expatriate market:
Professional working abroad, often on limited length assignments (some people restrict the term expatriates to this group)
Lifestyle migrants that move abroad in search of a better way of life. This includes the increasing number of pensioners that move to hotter countries, because of the climate and lower cost of living
International students studying abroad
Economic migrants, people that move abroad for economic reasons as they can earn significantly more money and/or have an improved standard of living
The number of people moving country is increasing across all expatriate categories - irrespective of motivation, geographic origin and social background. While the percentage of migrants in the total population of developed countries continues to increase, there are also an increasing number of expatriates from developed countries that move abroad for professional or personal reasons.
Expatriates in developed countries
In developed countries, expatriates and migrants now account for almost 10% of the total population, making them an attractive target group for many industries. However, the countries with the highest percentage of expatriates are in the Middle East. In the United Arab Emirates, expatriates make up more than 70% of the total population, followed by Kuwait with more than 60% (United Nations, 2005 ). In Europe, the country with the highest ratio of expatriates is Luxembourg (more than 30% of total population), followed by Switzerland (more than 20%).
When it comes to total numbers, the US is leading the worldwide ranking with more than 38 million expatriates living there, followed by the Russian Federation (12 million) although this figure is skewed by nationals from former USSR states. In Europe, the ranking is led by Germany with more than 10 million foreigners living there, followed by France. However, this picture might change significantly in the future; Germany and France host a lot of migrants that have moved there over the last few decades, the country with the highest number of inbound arrivals is today Spain.
Irrespective of their exact number, expatriates and migrants have become an increasingly important socioeconomic factor in developed countries, changing cultural habits and the rules of economics and marketing. This trend is likely to continue in the future, with more and more developed countries becoming multicultural societies.
Expatriates from developed countries
The increase of worldwide mobility doesn't only effect inbound migration to developed countries, there are also an increasing number of expatriates from developed countries moving abroad.
Within the OECD, the country with the highest number of expatriates is the UK. More than 3 million British expatriates now live abroad and the trend towards expatriation seems to be accelerating. It is not surprising that British companies are also leading the way when it comes to creating special expatriate services. As an example, many of the worldwide expatriate health insurance companies and expatriate banking providers are based in the UK. Despite their original focus on British expatriates, these companies are now serving many expatriates from other countries as well, often fulfilling the needs that are not covered by service providers from companies in their home country.
A good example of an underdeveloped expatriate market are German expatriates. Although Germany is the OECD country with the second highest number of expatriates (almost 3 million Germans living abroad) the amount of companies serving German expatriates is still very limited. Since many German expatriates speak English as a second language, they therefore turn to British providers for specialized expatriate services. As the number of worldwide expatriates continues to increase, it is likely that an increasing number of international companies will create special products, services and expatriate media to serve the needs of this target group.
