The Real Empty Chair: Paul Ryan
Clint Eastwood's ramble at an empty chair during the GOP Convention last week stayed with me, but not for the original reasons. Yes, it is always unfortunate when a old white guy situates a man of color, our president, no less as being invisible. Ralph Ellison has that covered.
"I was pulled this way and that for longer than I can remember. And my problem was that I always tried to go in everyone's way but my own. I have also been called one thing and then another while no one really wished to hear what I called myself. So after years of trying to adopt the opinions of others I finally rebelled. I am an invisible man."
But the idea of the chair being empty got me thinking about Paul Ryan who shared that stage with Eastwood. Paul Krugman in yesterday's NYT writes this about Ryan:
And these days Paul Ryan is the Rosie Ruiz of American politics.
This would have been an apt comparison even before the curious story of Mr. Ryan's own marathon came to light. Still, that's quite a story, so let's talk about it first.
It started when Hugh Hewitt, a right-wing talk-radio host, interviewed Mr. Ryan. In that interview, the vice-presidential candidate boasted about his fitness, declaring that he had once run a marathon in less than three hours.
This claim piqued the interest of Runner's World magazine, which noted that marathon times are recorded — and that it was unable to find any evidence of Mr. Ryan's accomplishment. It eventually transpired that Mr. Ryan had indeed once run a marathon, but that his time was actually more than four hours.
In a statement issued by a spokesman, Mr. Ryan tried to laugh the whole thing off as a simple error. But serious runners find that implausible: the difference between sub-three and over-four is the difference between extraordinary and perfectly ordinary, and it's not something a runner could get wrong, unless he's a fabulist who imagines his own reality. And does suggesting that Mr. Ryan is delusional rather than dishonest actually make the situation any better?
Which brings us back to the real issues of this presidential campaign.
Obviously nobody cares how fast Mr. Ryan can run, and even his strange marathon misstatement wouldn't be worth talking about in isolation. What makes this incident so striking is, instead, the way it resonates with the essential Rosie-Ruizness of Mr. Ryan's whole political persona, which is built around big boasts about accomplishments he hasn't accomplished.
This led me to create the collage below as I wondered just what does Paul Ryan have to boast about? What is it that he has done? Surely that debacle of a budget he proposed that would harm the already down and out can't be considered a credit?
Just ask the nuns on the bus. They'll give it to you straight.

Bravo! Anyone who mentions Ayn Rand raises red flags for me. I read her bio--weird, weird, weird. Weird. I also read Atlas Shrugged and that other one--with Howard (?) as the main character. No sense of connection to others and how productive that might be.
Watching Paul Ryan last week, tho, I could see he is a "charmer," like Sarah Palin. Let's hope he falls by the wayside like she did.
Mary Ann Reilly September 3, 2012 at 8:49 PM
The Ayn Rand is a give a way isn't it? Think he's just as mean as Cheney, just dressed in a hipper look.

Today Sam Altman, one of the Y Combinator partners, posted an article called How to Hire. There's much to agree with in here, and a few points that I think are wrongheaded (mostly around the overused-and-underdefined phrase "culture fit", and some assertions which are really just ageism), but the point that generated the most discussion on Hacker News was the idea of an audition.
Have people audition for roles instead of interviewing for them.
Whenever possible (and it's almost always possible), have someone do a day or two of work with you before you hire her; you can do this at night or on the weekends. If you're interviewing a developer, have her write code for a real but non-critical project. For a PR person, have her write a press release and identify reporters to pitch it to. Just have the person sign a contractor agreement and pay them for this work like a normal contractor.
–Pros: Whiteboarding is artificial, and real coding is a better reflection of skills; hiring is a two-way street; wouldn't you want to really get to know your colleagues?; I wish someone would test me that way.
The best answer, of course, comes from remembering the goal of interviewing in the first place: to find people you should hire, and then hire them. Obvious stuff, but there's a less-obvious corollary: if there's part of your process that keeps you from finding people you should hire, you should change that process. No matter how awesome your company is, asking for homework as part of the interview process will keep some people you would want to hire from interviewing.
If you think that a working session will give you different data than a whiteboarding session, then integrate it into your interview day: instead of five hours of whiteboarding, do two hours of whiteboarding, two hours of real-world programming, and an hour to establish values alignment.
Real-world programming could be pair programming, or could be what one of our clients does, where they ask the candidate to bring a laptop with their development environment, and a VGA connector (or they'll provide one), gives the candidate a problem and a projector, and watch while asking questions.
With a setup like this, you give the candidate multiple ways to show success (i.e. he freezes at the whiteboard but can write great code the first time through; she takes a while to get into a problem but clearly understands data structures), and you gather a wide variety of information.

Q: Scroll issue in Open Social Gadget I have a gadget that should be dynamic-height and it should have scroll-y.
I tried using this annotation in my java class:
@ModulePrefs(scrolling = true)
It returned below XML code:
ModulePrefs scrolling="true"
But my iframe still has "scrolling=no" property.
Am I doing something wrong?
I'd appreciate any help/hint. Thanks in advance.

A: Apparently it's a bug in shindig, because it generates a javascript file with a hard coded "scrolling=no" property. As this js is created using a servlet, I overwrote the servlet and put:
replaceAll("scrolling=\"no\"", "scrolling=\"auto\"");

A: Whether the iFrame scrolls or not is actually up to the container.  The container may choose to let your gadget grow as big as it wants in which case you may never see scroll bars.  Or the container may let the DOM element surrounding the iFrame scroll.  The container could even  have the BODY element in the gadget iFrame scroll if it grows to big.  No matter what the container decides to do, all your gadget should have to do is include the dynamic-height feature and call gadgets.window.adjustHeight() when it wants to adjust its height.
As for the scrolling attribute of ModulePrefs, I think that is bug, I don't think it is a valid attribute.  The only place I see a reference to this in the current spec is in the Gadget XML Schema [1], which makes me think that it was removed at some point and just not removed from the XML Schema.

[. . .] This is an interesting aspect to the story about the revolution because it was foster from bottom up and not the top down. The same ideas that led Hewes to The Tea Party eventually got him credit for the phrase in the Constitution of the United States, "All men are created equal."
Throughout history the press and historians have successfully "spun" events for the purpose of furthering their own views. This is especially true during the colonial period in regards to the events which eventually manifested into the American Revolution. In this period it was typically for most information about the events to be passed on primarily through word of mouth. Hewes recollections of the events that took place were passed along in his own interpretation. His recollections of the dumping of the tea into the harbor lead the reemergence of how significant the dumping of the tea was for the United States of America. However, stories of Hewes were also spun in order to alter the views of others.
Hewes was a figure that was present at the Boston massacre and then later at The Boston Tea Party. At the time it was not that interesting to many colonists'. In fact, the term "Tea Party" does not arise until the 1830s. The 'discovery' of George Robert Twelves Hewes was primarily limited to his family and the circles around him until 1834 when the unknown historical figure was provided more press. It is reasonable to argue that Hewes perspective helped to illustrate how revolutionary the dumping of the tea really was. Before the Tea Party, the dumping of the tea was a significant event for most colonists.
Many colonists viewed the event as act that subsequently over stepped the boundaries; most viewed it as something of a radical event. Yet their actions would inevitably lead to severe retaliation from Great Britain in the form of legislation known as the Intolerable Acts. The Intolerable Acts were enacted upon the colonies which gave Parliament the power to move the trials of the colonies back to England if the King feared that the jury would not try the case fairly. Furthermore, all law officers were deemed as legitimate only by appointment by the royal governor and the town meetings which didn't have explicit approval of the royal governor were banned. The Intolerable acts also had two additional clauses that closed the port of Boston until the price of the dumped tea was reclaimed. These events led to the start of the American Revolution and the fight for independence. The "discovery" of Hewes successfully illustrates how the Sons of Liberty help ignite the start the American Revolution.
Hewes, despite whatever inaccuracies may be present in the stories about him, helped foster a renew spirit of patriotism during the 1830s. After the propaganda was successfully constructed, the dumping of the tea looked at as destruction but rather looked upon as something more substantial. Because of Hewes and those who wrote about him, the public viewed the dumping of the tea as something more symbolic. This helped to create a new spin on the Boston Tea Party which is reverberated in most analysis. The catch phrase that emerged was "No taxation without representation" which was said by Patrick Henry at the Stamp Act congress in 1765 before the Boston Massacre or dumping of the tea even happened.
It is often hard to imagine what life was like before the internet. In most cases the history of the age was typically passed down orally from generation to generation. Figures that made the transformation of the dumping of the tea come to life with new stories were born with new heroes. For instance, a common person would only know about what George Washington and other important figures in American history through the stories that were told at dinner time. Young provides a balance of knowledge from Hewes as well as his own insight into the historical events that unfolded. After reading Young's book, one can draw comparisons to modern day history and the amount of spin that is still present. Yet dissecting history from multiple perspectives can offer a broader and more comprehensive illustration of what actually happened.

The engine control module (ECM) continuously monitors the environment in the engine. Using the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor or mass air flow (MAF) sensor, among others, the ECM modulates fuel injector pulse, spark timing, and valve timing. If there is a vacuum leak, the ECM may be unable to compensate. Short-term or long-term fuel trim, STFT or LTFT on a scan tool Automotive Repair Software, might show something like +10% or +25% as the ECM attempts to compensate for unmetered air. P0171 and P0174 are common Fuel System Lean DTC.
There are several methods you can use to identify a vacuum leak. Start with a vacuum hose diagram, which you can find in a repair manual or sometimes on a sticker under the hood. Using one of the following methods, finding the vacuum leak might manifest itself as a change in engine speed or idle smoothness. Smaller leaks may only manifest themselves as fluctuating STFT readings on a OBD2 vehicle scanner.

Legal scoping on decarbonisation of buildings
With about 40% of EU's total energy consumption, and 36% of the EU's GHG emissions from energy,[1] the building sector is one of the key areas in which efforts need to be made to achieve decarbonisation targets and improve our energy independence. The issue is important amongst other for its social/energy justice and right to life components, including tackling energy poverty and accessing decent housing, which could be (partially) addressed through the same policies. Solutions are multiple and include the implementation of energy efficiency measures such as renovation, the electrification of heating/cooling/cooking, and demand response mechanisms.
The importance of decarbonising the building sector has been recognised in multiple policy documents at EU and MS levels, such as the Renovation Wave Strategy and the recent REPowerEU Communication, whilst many think tanks and organisations have recently released policy documents on the topic and its relevance to energy security. Increased targets and stronger requirements are also being included in several pieces of legislation currently under revision, such as the Energy Efficiency Directive, the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, the Ecodesign Directive and the Renewable Energy Directive.
This notwithstanding, legal and practical barriers to energy efficiency measures for the decarbonisation of buildings still remain. Therefore, ClientEarth would like to hire an external consultant to scope opportunities for legal intervention(s) at national and/or EU level that could help accelerate the decarbonisation of the building sector. This will be a high level scoping exercise. A more in-depth legal research on identified potential cases will be carried out at a second stage.
Expertise and/or practical experience on issues of energy efficiency in buildings such as decarbonisation of heating/cooling/cooking. The consultant should focus primarily on residential buildings, and on public buildings at a second level.
Good knowledge and network among the EU/national stakeholders' landscape in relation to the relevant topics
Legal background strongly desired
Identify main (legal) issues and obstacles to the effective decarbonisation of buildings at EU and national level.
Identify avenues for potential legal intervention (at high level), including a selection of the most relevant countries in which to intervene.
Identify relevant stakeholders in the building sector at both national and EU levels and organise bilateral or collective consultations with them.
Timeframe and deliverable
The consultancy should start as soon as possible. A final scoping report should be submitted by 30 July 2022.
We suggest the following milestones to the final product of this consultancy (to be adapted to the consultant's availability):
First discussion to determine the final scope of the report: 27 May 2022
First draft: 17 June 2022
Second draft: 15 July 2022
Final draft: 12 August 2022
Final report delivered: 29 August 2022
Send your CV and a short concept note to Eleni Diamantopoulou (EDiamantopoulou@clientearth.org) and Alexia Falisse (afalisse@clientearth.org) before 10 June 2022.
Short term consultancy: Scoping for legal empowerment interventions in the DRC
ClientEarth is scoping a new programme of work in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and requires a consultant to support this process.
Duty station: Home-based / remote
Type and duration of contract: Consultancy contract, 5 months
Preferred starting date: February 2023
Closing date for applications: 14 December 2022
Forests will be key to mitigating climate change and the Congo Basin is the second largest tropical rainforest in the world after the Amazon. The Congo Basin accounts for 70% of Africa's forest cover and holds huge amounts of carbon.
ClientEarth works in both producer and consumer countries to protect forests and biodiversity. Our work includes promotion of community forestry and the rights of local communities and indigenous peoples through legal reform, empowerment and capacity building and improved benefit sharing agreements. We also work in the EU and UK on the legality of imported timber products (EUTR) and the creation of legal frameworks to hold corporations and investors accountable for risks to deforestation and biodiversity loss.
ClientEarth's work in tropical forested countries focuses on the intersect between human rights and environmental protection. We believe that community-based forest management is key and that entrusting local communities and Indigenous Peoples with the sustainable management of their lands is the best long-term approach to protecting forests. However, for communities to adopt their role as agents for forest protection and conservation, they must be supported by legal rights.
Following this vision, ClientEarth is scoping a new programme of work in the DRC, where we hope to provide legal support to national process(es) or sub-national process(es) of sustainable, community-led forest management. More specifically the type of work we are considering that ClientEarth may undertake in the DRC includes:
- Support national NGOs and community-based organisations with legal skills, literacy, knowledge, etc. This could take the format of regular working groups, that ClientEarth facilitates and funds (together with national partners), where NGOs working on relevant topics convene and discuss key topics of advocacy. Such working groups could be constituted in conjunction with, or with the aim towards direct engagement with government. Topics could include the legal aspects of community forestry, implementation of the Indigenous Peoples' Law, national laws and processes related to the granting of land-use concessions, and transparent legal processes within the minerals and oil/gas extractive sectors (concession granting, royalties, etc.).
- Community-level support to uphold and protect the rights of local communities and Indigenous Peoples who (i) wish to register as a community forest; (ii) find themselves and/or their rights threatened by third parties; or (iii) need support to implement community forestry in line with the legal framework. - Legal actions towards investors and/or financiers of egregious environmental harm; the precise types of harms, target entities, and manner in which ClientEarth might position itself in such actions with local and international partners is to be determined.
Tasks for the consultant
- Identify the key issues lying at the heart of national civil society's objectives / work; what are the key issues threatening the forests of the DRC, the key issues regarding the extractive sector, and other related matters, according to national and sub-national actors
- Provide information on the status and opportunities of international processes (REDD+, FLEGT-VPA, CAFI, LEAF, etc)
- Undertake a stakeholder mapping, to understand the key national and international governmental, private sector (esp. investor and financing), civil society organisations, community-based organisations and national and sub-national public sector actors involved in forest management and the extractives sector
- Identify the key areas of legal work that ClientEarth could contribute to national or sub-national issues of forest management (especially community-led forest management) and the extractive sector
- In all of our work in West and Central Africa, ClientEarth works in close partnership with national lawyers or legal specialists. The consultant will identify national partners with whom ClientEarth could work as in-country associates.
- Final deliverable will be a report proposing a strategy for engagement in the DRC and a list of key stakeholders, including potential in-country partners.
- Good knowledge of the Congo Basin and the DRC and network among (inter-)national stakeholders working in the DRC in relation to the relevant topics
- Legal background strongly desired
- Fluent in French (CEFR level C2) and strong oral and written English (CEFR level C1)
- Well-developed interpersonal communication style and proven ability to build productive and collaborative working relationships with civil society, civil servants, local community networks and leaders, and other key stakeholders.
- Experience working on law and/or policy development or legal empowerment processes, either with governments, civil society organisations, communities or the private sector
- Willingness to undertake visit(s) to Kinshasa, both solo and together with ClientEarth staff, for up to 6 weeks. The first trip would take place in approximately March 2023, for between 2-3 weeks, with a second trip before June 2023.
The consultancy should start by February 2023, at the latest.
We suggest the following key dates for this consultancy (to be adapted to the consultant's availability). Please note that travel to Kinshasa is dependent upon rolling security assessments, to be undertaken by ClientEarth.
· First discussion to determine the scope of the consultancy and to prepare for a first trip to Kinshasa: week commencing 13 February 2023
· First trip to Kinshasa: March 2023
· First draft report from first trip to Kinshasa: week commencing 10 April 2023
· Second trip to Kinshasa: May 2023
· First draft report from second trip to Kinshasa: week commencing 12 June 2023
· Final report delivered: 31 July 2023
The consultant will hold frequent (at least monthly) check-ins with ClientEarth staff to discuss progress and next steps.
Consultancy of a maximum of 65 days (spread over 5 months).
ClientEarth will pay all expenses related to travel.
Send your CV, including a proposed fee rate, and a short concept note to Caroline Haywood (chaywood@clientearth.org) and Patricia Iacob (piacob@clientearth.org) before 14 December 2022. Interviews will take place in 2023.

Q: How to convert int RGB into BYTE 2D array gray image I am trying to convert a colored image to a gray scaled one and save it as BYTE values into a 2D array and later I need to do some process on this 2D array. Although, my array's values are all bytes, my output image turns blue instead of gray. Can anyone help me please ?
Here is my code :
public class HW {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    int[][] savedImage = readimage(new File("C:\\Images\\input.jpg"));

    BufferedImage grayImage = new BufferedImage(savedImage.length, savedImage[0].length, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);

    for (int i =0 ; i<savedImage.length ; i ++){
        for (int j=0 ; j<savedImage[0].length ; j++){
            grayImage.setRGB(i, j, savedImage[i][j]);
            System.out.print(savedImage[i][j] + ",");
        }
        System.out.println();
    }

    try {
        File outputfile = new File ("C:\\Images\\garyoutput.jpg");
        ImageIO.write(grayImage, "jpg", outputfile);
    }
    catch(IOException e ) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

public static int[][] readimage(File filename) throws IOException {
    // Grayscale Image output
    BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(filename);

    int width = img.getWidth();
    int height = img.getHeight();
    int [][] readimageVal = new int [width][height];

    for (int i = 0; i<height ; i++) {
        for (int j =0  ; j<width ; j++) {
            int p = img.getRGB(j,i);

            int r = (p>>16)&0xff;
            int g = (p>>8)&0xff;
            int b = p&0xff;

            int avg = ((r+b+g)/3);

            readimageVal[j][i] = avg;
        }
    }
    return readimageVal;
}

}

A: The problem is in the main nested loops in the main method:
for (int i =0 ; i<savedImage.length ; i ++){
    for (int j=0 ; j<savedImage[0].length ; j++){
           grayImage.setRGB(i, j, savedImage[i][j]);//← Here
        System.out.print(savedImage[i][j] + ",");
    }
}

int[][] savedImage contains one byte representing the gray value, but grayImage is still type BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB. So, if you only call grayImage.setRGB(i, j, savedImage[i][j]), only the blue portion of the int will be set:
RRRRRRRR GGGGGGGG BBBBBBBB
00000000 00000000 xxxxxxxx

So you need to call this instead:
int rgb = savedImage[i][j];
rgb = (rgb<<16)|(rgb<<8)|(rgb);
grayImage.setRGB(i, j, rgb);

A: You have different possibilities to do it, but first, here is a simpler way to access the pixels:
public static int[][] readimage(File filename) throws IOException {
    BufferedImage img = ImageIO.read(filename) ;// Grayscale Image output
    final int width = img.getWidth() ;
    final int height = img.getHeight() ;
    int[][] graylevelarray = new int[height][width] ;

    for (int y=0 ; y < height ; y++)
        for (int x=0 ; x < width ; x++) {
            int r = img.getRaster().getSample(x, y, 0) ;
            int g = img.getRaster().getSample(x, y, 1) ;
            int b = img.getRaster().getSample(x, y, 2) ;
            graylevelarray[y][x] = ??? ;
            }

    return graylevelarray ;
    }

As I said, for the conversion, you have many different possibilities:

*

*An average as you did, but it's rarely used.

*CIE 601 (0.299*R + 0.587*G + 0.114*B) or CIE 709 (0.2125*R + 0.7154*G + 0.0721*B) recommandations, the most used.

*Cheap/fast green (R+2*G+B)/4, that is faster, used for example into the library Zxing.

I don't remember who it was who said having kids was like installing a permanent bowling alley in your head, but they were right.
I've spent the last 11 and a bit years very closely looking after my kids, including homeschooling them. They're all in school now, but it's only been two months or so and I'm still adjusting to having a few hours every day when nobody is spilling anything or asking me something. But now I face a different kind of ordeal.
On Wednesday afternoon I left Ottawa for Aberdeen, Scotland. I'm here for a karate tournament. And what's weird is that I'm here by myself. No kids. Nobody. Just me.
I have not traveled alone since I was pregnant with Eldest, in 2006. And since I was pregnant I wasn't entirely alone either. Alone alone? I don't remember... I probably went somewhere in 2005 (I don't tend to stand still, much), so let's put it at 13 years. I have traveled a lot with my kids, mind you. On business trips and "fun" trips. They followed along on filming trips. They came to conferences as babies. They go on long drives routinely.
I won't lie to you: I have been looking forward to this trip for months. The idea of being alone for almost five days was like a giant piece of salted caramel dark chocolate weighing zero calories.
But here's the thing: I'm so disoriented by the peace and quiet that I almost literally don't know what to do with myself... other than catching up on sleep. I went sightseeing, I bought a book to read with my Guinness and haggis, I got lost taking the wrong bus back to my hotel and enjoyed a fine conversation with the helpful driver, I've been in four or five different cities in less than 24 hours, and I'm taking it easy and just enjoying the peace and quiet and I'm getting so much stuff done I'm dizzy.
Dizzy in a good way, I think. But still. I feel like I've been on a treadmill for 11 years and it just got suddenly shut off and my legs don't want to stop moving.
I shall go to the beach and say hello to the North Sea today, and that should help clear my mind.
*Extended in the context of my life means: "More than two hours".
**One great advantage of bags over children is they never need to pee in the customs queue. But they never say stuff like that in parenting guides.

Related Beal, Consigli Construction and Arrowstreet place final beam at 40 Water St. redevelopment
December 01, 2017 - Owners Developers & Managers
Boston, MA The final beam has been placed at 40 Water St., the centerpiece of Congress Sq., Related Beal's redevelopment of the former Fidelity Investment headquarters. Set at the intersections of Congress, Water and Devonshire Sts., Congress Sq. will create a 24-hour mixed-use environment connecting Government Center, Faneuil Hall, Post Office Sq. and Downtown Crossing.
The building at 40 Water St. features a six and a half story glass curtainwall addition that will be a modern jewel box on top of the building, which features more than 320,000 s/f of class A office space, a double-height lobby, and a new single modern core. Related Beal is executing this best-in-class preservation of the landmarked property to include efficient and versatile floor plates, active rooftops, and retail/restaurant space on the lower levels and ground floor.
The new design maintains the property's best attributes and historic architecture while functioning as an efficient, modern building.
The redevelopment plan for Congress Sq. includes office, residential, hospitality, and more than 43,000 s/f of retail space, as well as the transformation of Quaker Ln. into a pedestrian-oriented food and beverage destination lined with boutiques and cafes. Related Beal performed extensive research into the block's historic character and discovered that the location was referred to as Congress Sq. when it was first constructed between 1899 and 1921. 40 Water St. is under construction by Related Beal Construction and Consigli Construction Co. and Arrowstreet is the architect.
Related Beal is a fully integrated real estate firm focused on development opportunities in Boston and its surrounding areas. Related Beal leverages a national real estate platform with expertise across all asset classes and storied local experience in residential, commercial, hospitality and life sciences development, property management and investment.

To be entitled to any compensation for death, a dependant must first submit the claim form for compensation following a death approved by the MRCC (D2053 Claim for Compensation for Dependants of Deceased Members and Former Members).
Form D2053 must be used to claim liability for the death, compensation for death and funeral expenses.
See also Chapter 2  of this manual.
With respect to late claims for compensation – i.e. those made years after the death – delegates should not under any circumstances attempt to deny claims of dependants of a person (particularly dependants of a member who died after discharge) merely on the basis that the notification was late. The merits of the case must be judged solely on the basis of the evidence relating to relationship and economic dependency at the time of death.
Where an amount of compensation for death has been assessed, but not paid prior to the death of the dependant (for example, a claim by a wholly dependent partner or an eligible young person) this entitlement is not cancelled by the death of the dependant.
Delegates should pay any amounts of compensation still outstanding to the deceased dependant's designated executor or legally appointed administrator of the estate and not to any other person including those purporting to have a claim on that person's estate.
Where a wholly dependent partner or other dependant entitled to make a claim in relation to a member's death dies without making a claim, the person's legal personal representative may make a claim with any compensation being made to the dependant's estate, as set out in subsections 321(3)  and (4) .


Printed silk pocket square with a medieval zoomorphic miniature representation. A cat that pinches the strings of a lute surrounded by red poppies and blue carnations that stand out with their colors on a black background.
Liuto, belonging to the Baccano collection, will be produced in a limited edition. To enhance the uniqueness of our pocket square, the serial number and the year of production will be reproduced on the satin label of the same color as the printed image.
Each of us has an inner musical accompaniment. And if others listen to it well, it's called personality.
An Egyptian Mau, an ancient breed of cat, playing the lute, a musical instrument born in the distant Egypt. An outline of carnations, the Flower of the Gods, and poppies, the flowers that are born at the edges of roads and railways, symbols of simplicity and pride.
Eccentric red poppies in harmonic contrast with the ethereal blue of the carnations. Just like the musical notes of the lute accompany opposing scenarios, from refined performances in noble courts to playful street performances.
Energy and determination emerge from the contrasts. Wearing this pocket square implies an eclectic, yet elegant personality. The drawing goes perfectly with both a classic style and a more casual and spontaneous one.

Railway Children play to be staged at Waterloo's redundant Eurostar station
A production of The Railway Children featuring a real steam locomotive is to be staged at Waterloo's disused international terminal.
The announcement was made on Thursday by producer Jenny King at Coin Street Neighbourhood Centre during a packed South Bank Forum meeting.
The redundant Eurostar platforms will be turned into a theatre with the audience seated on two sides of the steam engine. A similar production of the play – based on the book by E Nesbit – was staged at the National Railway Museum in York two years ago.
The Waterloo cast will include 15 children. As many as 60 local people are likely to be employed as ushers, box office staff and PAs during the five month run. There are also volunteering opportunities.
Centreline Productions is due on site next month with the steam engine arriving early in May. Rehearsals begin in June. The first preview night is on Sunday 4 July.
The booking office and ground level concourse will host exhibitions of work by Lambeth schools and other displays.
Profits from the show are going to the Railway Children charity founded ten years ago to change the lives of children living on stations and streets in India, East Africa and Britain.
2010 is the 40th anniversary of the classic Railway Children film starring Jenny Agutter as Bobbie.
The old Eurostar station is also due to host the annual fundraising ball of the ARK (Absolutely Return for Kids) charity on 13 May. ARK sponsors two SE1 schools – Globe Academy and Walworth Academy. At last year's event 900 people paid £10,000 each for tickets.
Meanwhile there is still uncertainty about the long-term future of the Eurostar station at Waterloo which has been disused since November 2007. The Office of Rail Regulation had previously instructed Network Rail to make the platforms available for use by domestic trains by the end of 2011, but recent press reports suggested that those plans could be delayed by the creation of a new supermarket in the space below the platforms.
"The Department for Transport is currently in discussion with the British Railways Board (Residuary) Limited, Network Rail and Stagecoach South West Trains to establish what would be the most cost-effective way to integrate Waterloo International terminal into the domestic station that maximises benefits for the short, medium and long term," transport minister Chris Mole said last week in response to parliamentary questions from Susan Kramer MP.
He added: "The Department for Transport is working closely with BRB (Residuary) Ltd to ensure that the timing of any commercial development of the space below the platforms at Waterloo International station does not adversely impact upon any plans to bring the platforms into use for domestic passengers."

Home/Entertainment/Mayor Bill de Blasio announces NYC to fully open on July 1 as 6.3 million vaccine doses administered
Mayor Bill de Blasio announces NYC to fully open on July 1 as 6.3 million vaccine doses administered
Mayor Bill de Blasio announced New York City will 'fully reopen' on July 1 as he confidently proclaimed 'this is going to be the summer of New York City.'
On Thursday, de Blasio said the city will operate at full capacity from July 1 during his daily briefing where he laid out details for the city's reopening plan.
'It's time to set a goal for a full reopening of New York City,' he said. 'We are ready to bring New York City back fully all systems go because you've earned it were going to keep working hard everyday to make this city safer and safer'
According to de Blasio, the July 1 goal was made possible because of New Yorkers have been vaccinated at high rates and followed guidelines.
'The data and the science are saying out loud, it's time to come back,' de Blasio added. 'Now we can see that light at the end of the tunnel.'
'What we're seeing is that people have gotten vaccinated at extraordinary numbers.' he said earlier on Thursday morning during an appearance on MSNBC's Morning Joe morning show.
More than 6.3 million vaccinations have been administered in New York City to date and roughly 36% of the city's adult population is fully vaccinated.
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio said 'this is going to be an amazing summer' as he laid out plans for the city to fully reopen during his daily briefing on Thursday
De Blasio's announcement comes one day after New York lawmakers lifted Governor Andrew Cuomo's pandemic-era rule that customers must order food when buying alcohol in bars
On Wednesday Cuomo announced the state would lift COVID-19-related restrictions impacting the state's bars and restaurants
De Blasio said 100% reopening means fully reopening restaurants and bars, stores, shops and small businesses.
Also fully reopening on July 1 are hair salons, gyms, stadiums, theaters, and museums, de Blasio said.
'We're all going to get to enjoy the city again and people are going to flock here from all over the country,' he said.
De Blasio told New Yorkers that in order to accomplish the July 1 goal more and more people must continue to get vaccinated.
'We all got a little work to do, but we can get there together' he said at the briefing.
Reopening the city would ultimately be determined by the state and Governor Andrew Cuomo.
De Blasio said he has not spoken to Cuomo but he will work with federal and state officials to meet the July 1 goal.
'The best way to proceed here is to set out the city's vision,' he said on Thursday. 'We're going to work with the federal government, were going to work with the state government but its quite clear its time to set a goal and move on that goal.'
At his own COVID briefing on Thursday, Cuomo addressed de Blasio's July 1 reopening date.
Cuomo said that he wants to reopen New York City earlier than July 1 but cautioned it was still too early to make accurate projections.
'I am reluctant to make projections because I think they're irresponsible,' he told reporters. 'July 1 – you have May, June, what happens in May? what happens in June? I would like to get the hopeful reopening date before that. I don't want to wait that long. I think if we do what we have to do we can reopen earlier.'
On Wednesday, New York lawmakers lifted New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's pandemic-era rule that customers must order food when buying alcohol in bars.
On Wednesday Cuomo announced the state would lift COVID-19-related restrictions impacting the state's bars and restaurants.
According to Mayor Bill de Blasio, arenas and stadiums are set to reopen at full capacity by July 1 as more New Yorkers continue to get vaccinated
New York City tourist attractions, including Times Square, (pictured) might see more visitors this summer as the city reopens. 'We're all going to get to enjoy the city again and people are going to flock here from all over the country,' de Blasio said
'We are ready to bring New York City (pictured) back fully all systems go because you've earned it were going to keep working hard everyday to make this city safer and safer' de Blasio told New Yorkers during a briefing on Thursday
New York City will fully reopen this summer just in time for the famous Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest (pictured) held on Independence Day in Coney Island, Brooklyn
The current midnight closing time for outdoor dining areas of bars and restaurants will now expire on May 17, followed by the indoor curfew on May 31, he announced.
Customers will also be able to sit at bars in New York City from May 3.
City and state government have started to announce plans to reopen as positive cases, hospitalizations and deaths have all been declining as more New Yorkers continue to get vaccinated and warm weather draws people outdoors, the New York Times reported.
The reopening plan comes one day after a new report from State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli revealed, unsurprisingly, that the pandemic has severely impacted New York City's tourism industry.
The report found the the industry lost 89,000 jobs and about $60 billion during the pandemic.
DiNapoli said city officials need to focus on attracting tourists after the city saw 43.7 million fewer visitors in 2020 due to COVID.
'Visitors and their spending are essential for the tourism industry, and they have to come back before the sector fully recovers,' he said.
The report projects that tourism in New York City wont return to pre-pandemic levels until 2025.
Last week, de Blasio announced a $30 million marketing campaign to promote tourism to the city.
6.3 million vaccinations have been administered in New York City to date and roughly 36% of the city's adult population is fully vaccinated
The latest citywide COVID data reported by NYC Health show a decline in both daily hospitalizations and positive cases (pictured)
The latest citywide COVID data reported by NYC Health show a decline in COVID deaths in New York City, with a seven day average of 32 deaths as of April 25
According to the latest data, the United States has reported a total of 32,230,809 Coronavirus cases and 574,330 deaths as of April 29
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced on Tuesday that fully vaccinated Americans can go maskless outside, except when attending crowded events like a concert, parade or baseball game.
The CDC said that outdoor transmission of coronavirus is exceedingly rare, accounting for less than 10 percent of cases.
Those risks are mainly linked to crowded events that can turn into super-spreader events, or people who were in close range of one another, the CDC said.
New York State has adopted the CDC mask guidance
This would be the first time New York City would be fully reopened since it first shutdown in March 2020 after it became the epicenter of the Coronavirus pandemic.
From March to June 2020 there were approximately 203,000 confirmed COVID cases reported in New York City, according to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report.
New York City has recorded at total of 923,953 total cases with 32,461 total deaths.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. officials say that after months of delay, the Trump administration is finalizing plans to revamp the nation's military command for defensive and offensive cyber operations. They say the intention is eventually to split it from the intelligence-focused National Security Agency in hopes of intensifying America's ability to wage cyber war against the Islamic State group and other foes.
Details are still being worked out, but officials say they expect a decision in the coming weeks. The officials weren't authorized to speak publicly on the matter so requested anonymity.
They say the goal is to give U.S. Cyber Command more autonomy, freeing it from any constraints that stem from working alongside the NSA. The NSA is responsible for collecting intelligence — a responsibility that can clash with military objectives.

Starting in 2018-2019, Mississippi's high schoolers could have the opportunity to earn endorsements alongside a traditional diploma. Wochit
Voters residing within the boundaries of the Hinds County School District will consider on Tuesday a $59.9 million bond issue. The measure includes a list of 55 proposed projects for each of the district's nine schools.(Photo: Courtesy, Hinds County School District)
Voters residing within the boundaries of the Hinds County School District will consider Tuesday whether to approve a $59.9 million school bond that carries the hallmarks of a school improvement referendum without an accompanying tax hike.
The referendum requires 60 percent voter approval to pass.
Voters last approved a school bond measure in 2003. And the four general obligation bonds since issued by the district are set to mature or be paid in full by April 1, 2019.
That bond issue included new middle schools in Byram, Bolton-Edwards and Utica. This one calls for facilities repairs, technology upgrades and new classrooms.
More: Rankin sees bond success
John Neal, associate director of community relations, said now that all projects proposed for the 2003 issue have been completed the district is honing in on its 1-to-1 Technology Initiative. The goal of the program is to boost students' access to digital learning by having one device per student in certain grades.
School officials have also proposed having smart boards in each of the 6,000-student district's classrooms.
The proposed list of 55 projects includes improvements at each of the district's nine schools.
Athletics are also included in the referendum. Byram Middle School would receive a new ball field and field house that would cancel the need for its football team to play games at Terry High School. New classrooms would also be added to the school site.
New ball fields and field houses have also been proposed for Utica and Bolton Middle School.
Neal explained that, although the district does not need to levy additional millage to issue a new general obligation bond, state law requires voter approval to move forward in the process.
Don't miss: Here's how graduation requirements could change in Miss.
Roughly 65 mills are levied in property taxes for residents living within Hinds County School District lines.
One mill is equal to 1/1,000 of a dollar. With a millage rate of 65.07, a home assessed at $100,000 would pay $65.07 for every $1,000 of assessed value for a total of $976.05. Assessed value is 15 percent of the true value.
Rep. Jarvis Dortch, D-Raymond, and Sen. David Blount, D-Jackson, expressed their approval for the measure in a joint statement, saying, "we work so the state of Mississippi does right by our schools. Our children depend on local support, too."
The legislators urged a yes vote emphasizing that the bond issue would not raise taxes.
Hinds County Tax Assessor Charles Stokes points out that voters should understand that approving the measure does not prevent the district from seeking a change in the district's overall tax rate in the future. For the 2014-15 school year, Hinds County dedicated 14.36 of the district's total 65 mills to paying off its general obligation bond. He explained that while the number of mills allotted toward the district's general obligation bond might remain the same if the measure passes, there's nothing to prevent school board members from seeking an increase on the district's current operating mills, which are used for day-to-day expenses.
Project work is slated to begin by March 8, 2018, if the measure is approved.
