House Votes to Give Lumbees Federal Recognition
The U.S. House of Representatives voted 256-128 Thursday afternoon to grant federal recognition to the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina.
Posted 11:05 p.m. Jun 7, 2007 — Updated 11:05 p.m. Jun 7, 2007
WASHINGTON — The U.S. House of Representatives voted 256-128 Thursday afternoon to grant federal recognition to the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina.
"Today's vote was one for fairness, justice and long overdue recognition for the Lumbee Indians," 7th District Congressman Mike McIntyre said in a statement. "For over 119 years, the Lumbees have been seeking the rightful designation, and today the House has helped the tribe move forward in this effort. It is quite significant that two-thirds of the House supported our efforts."
The bill now goes to the U.S. Senate for consideration.
If the bill passes the Senate, the Lumbees could receive more than $400 million in federal money.

Innovative interior design often makes use of glass for walls, doors and dividers, but some really unique designs incorporate glass flooring. Glass flooring – also known as structural glass – can be incorporated into walkways, staircases, bridges and floors. Glass flooring can allow an interior design to transmit a significant amount of natural light. Structural glass also includes glass stairways.
Typically, structural glass is laminated for strength and safety. It can either be clear or frosted, depending upon the application. Structural glass comes in squares that measure as much as 4 or 5 feet wide, and can be formed into panels or glass blocks. When installed, structural glass is supported by a steel or aluminum frame.
Glass flooring is often lit from below to create a dramatic visual effect. Clear flooring panels can give people standing on it an overhead view of processes or other activities. When a clear view is undesirable, translucent panels can still distribute natural light and provide a dramatic view when lit from below.
China has recently taken structural glass to new levels – literally. Glass bottomed bridges and viewing platforms suspended hundreds of feet above the ground give tourists unique views of natural parks, city skylines and other tourist attractions. China is not the only city in which tourists can take advantage of structural glass. Glass-floored tourist attractions can be found in London, Toronto, Moscow, Tokyo, Chicago, Los Angeles and New York City.

I just today put out my latest game: Chipper. Chipper is 4 person trick-taking card game that is largely played in the region I grew up around west-central Wisconsin. If you are not from there this game probably isn't that interesting, but give it a try anyways.
I've wanted to make a game for this for a long time, with many aborted efforts over the years. I finally buckled down and got it done for Android. The AI was the funnest part to write for it simply because getting it to bid and play correctly required going over how I play myself.
I wanted to get a version out now so that I have something out there. Future versions will hopefully add more features included saving and resuming games in progress as well as more variety in the ability of the AI to play the game.

Is Kawasaki Disease Contagious? Get All Your Questions Answered Here!
Kawasaki disease mainly affects children under the age of 5. It causes inflammation in the walls of the medium-sized arteries all over the body. This inflammation affects the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart muscles. This disease is also known as Mucocutaneous Lymph Node Syndrome as it is known to affect the skin, the lymph nodes and the mucous membranes of the mouth, nose, and throat.
Though the cause of this disease is still unknown, if the symptoms are recognized in time, the children with this disease can recover early after treatment. If Kawasaki disease is left untreated, it can lead to significant complications. Is Kawasaki disease contagious? No, it is not infectious.
In the second phase that begins around two weeks when the fever started, the skin of the child's hands and feet start to peel off in large pieces. He may even have pain in the joints, vomiting, diarrhea, and pain in the abdomen.
The Kawasaki Disease foundation has found out that this disease is known to affect more than 4200 children every year and it is more common in boys than in girls. This disease occurs in children of the Asian and Pacific descent. The exact cause of his condition is however still unknown. Researchers have concluded that this disease may occur because of a mixture of genetics and environmental factors. This disease is also known to occur during specific seasons to the children of the Asian descent.
Kawasaki disease is one of the conditions, which are still yet to be adequately identified. The cause of the disease is unknown, and the disease is rare. The disease is common in Japan than in most of the other countries. Some scientists feel that one of the causes of the disorders may be a conventional virus that may cause an overreaction in the infection fighting the immune system in your children. Is Kawasaki illness contagious?
Though Kawasaki disease is rare, it is not infectious. Your child would not be able to catch the disease from any other child or any other conditions. The disease also has not been proved to be found. Though the help of the microorganism might trigger the infection, it is rare for more than one child in a family to have the Kawasaki disease.
If your child is suffering from this rare disease called Kawasaki disease, then he can easily be treated for the same. Your child will be treated with immunoglobulin which is a blood product made of concentrated antibodies from donated blood. Your child will receive it intravenously through a vein. This immunoglobulin helps in reducing the damage to the heart. This should be incorporated ten days within the initiation of the illness. Without treatment, the chance of heart damage is about 1 in 5. If your child has had heart damage, then aspirin may be prescribed by the doctor. Long-term aspirin therapy to treat Kawasaki disease in children has potential side effects.
You may be getting confused if there are any types of complications of the Kawasaki disease? One of the significant side effects of the Kawasaki disease is damage to the heart. One of the most common kinds of damage has occurred by irritation or inflammation of the blood vessels that help to carry blood to the heart. If you feel that there has been considerable damage, then your child would have to be under complete medical checkup. The heart damage will heal on its own in half of the children, as they are young and agile.
Can Kawasaki Disease Recur Once Again?
If your child is suffering from Kawasaki disease, he/she needs to be under complete medical scrutiny. Your child needs to be checked by a heart specialist periodically. With the right treatment and care most of the children who have Kawasaki disease recover within a few weeks of getting the disease. It is rare for a child to get the disease more than once. This disease does not recur usually.
According to the latest research, we have seen that Kawasaki Disease is not contagious. It does not spread among family members or children in child care centers.
The main reasons for this illness are still unknown, and the condition is known to be rare as well however the immune system of the body can initiate it according to doctors.
So if you want to know whether Kawasaki disease is contagious, this disease is not infectious, but at the same time, the condition is unknown as well.

Campus-wide Media Project Targets Red/Blue News Divide
Whether it's the sites we choose, the stories our friends post, or the news that algorithms use to populate our feed, more Americans are learning about current events through a particular partisan lens.
A poster for the Polar Bear Purple Media Plunge
An experimental project on campus, starting Saturday, is encouraging students to stray from their comfortable news sites — where they can reliably read articles with a liberal or conservative bent — and to try reading news from the other side.
The Polar Bear Purple Media Plunge launches April 1. Volunteer participants pledge to read the major headlines from three cable news channels with differing partisan reputations — CNN, Fox, and MSNBC — each day until April 26. Staff and faculty are welcome to join.
"To be clear, we're not endorsing any of these media outlets — just the idea that it's good for society to push ourselves to be exposed to different perspectives and to learn about what drives our fellow citizens' perspectives, opinions, etc. — and to encourage others to do the same," emailed Dan Stone, an assistant professor of economics who helped design the project.
McKeen Center Associate Director Tom Ancona and Kate Stern, who is associate director of student affairs and the director of the Resource Center for Sexual and Gender Diversity, are assisting the project, as are Marina Affo '17, Justin Wallace '17, Daniel O'Berry '17 and Andrew Van Kuiken '17.
"We're all sort of stymied by the current media/political environment, so we figure it's worth trying something unconventional, even if it's something of a long shot."—Bowdoin economist Dan Stone
The Purple Media Plunge follows a campus What Matters conversation, "Red Feed, Blue Feed: Through what lenses do we view our media?", that was held Monday night, March 27. Students gathered in the pub to discuss how the national media model has changed in just a couple of decades — from a handful of widely read or viewed news sources — to a splintering of media outlets on the Internet. They also debated the benefits and drawbacks of our new media landscape, according to Ancona, who organized the event.
Ancona said he sees the Plunge as a way for Bowdoin community members to gain exposure to different perspectives outside their daily experience, a mission that reflects the goal of the McKeen Center's What Matters discussion series. As of Thursday afternoon, about 80 students had signed up for the Plunge.
After working with Wallace on a research paper that had them both reading news articles from diverse media outlets, Stone said he developed a greater appreciation for the complexity and variety of content he found. He began wondering what the longterm consequences might be of being exposed to media we don't normally look at.
"I wasn't aware of research on such longterm exposure," he continued. "There is research on some not so great 'backfire' effects in the very short-run, but I think it's possible effects could be more positive — that understanding and even empathy could be enhanced — with longer exposure."
Participants are only asked to read daily headlines — not full articles — to reduce their time commitment. They will also fill out a brief pre- and post-survey.
While the experiment could lead to a journal article or student research paper, Stone said the Media Plunge is mainly for fun and to, hopefully, be a good experience for participants. He notes that the sample of participants is not random, and regardless, outcomes are impossible to predict.
"I'd be happy if some participants find this worthwhile and push themselves to keep doing this sort of thing going forward," Stone said. "I'd be thrilled if this catches on — if outcomes were good and led to other colleges/organizations doing something similar."

Israel's shepherds, who have misled and scattered the people.
and demeaned by others as a scandalous infidel.
the one who lives in Rome.
think he's the best thing since sliced bread.
Is fidelity then, like beauty, in the eye of the beholder? No.
and wrestle with how to live a holy life in these times.
let the faithful be judged as unfaithful – or the unfaithful as faithful.
as we seek to live holy lives in the crucible of our own experience.
we need to see ourselves through those three lenses.
they blind themselves to greatest vision that can be theirs.
for which every human heart is longing.
and unable to focus on the truth and holiness they are called to seek.
but only in, and through, the eyes of God who sees perfectly.
to a holy way of life.
faithful to his Word, his Church and his truth.

"Come prima" (English: "As Before") is an Italian song, with lyrics by Mario Panzeri and music by Vincenzo Di Paola and Sandro Taccani. First made popular by Tony Dallara in Italy in 1957, a version by the Marino Marini Quartet was a hit in the United Kingdom in 1958.

Versions
The first and most popular version of "Come prima" in Italy was released by Tony Dallara (Antonio Lardera) in 1957. "Come prima" was Tony Dallara's first and breakthrough single. Although it was rejected for admission to the Sanremo Festival, it was an instant success and sold 300,000 copies, becoming the biggest selling single in Italy up to that point.

In 1958 Tony Renis and the Combos also recorded the 45 rpm piece (Combo Record, 5057), also published in Germany, as a soloist (Polydor, 23 815).

In 1958, a version of the song recorded by the Marino Marini Quartet made the United Kingdom charts. That same year, the song was also recorded by Domenico Modugno, Nicola Arigliano and Armando Trovajoli's orchestra with singer Miranda Martino. The following year, the song was a hit for Dalida under the same song title, but with lyrics sung in French. Besides being translated in English, "Come prima" ended up being translated to Croatian and was released as "Kao prije" in 1958 as a solo record by Ivo Robić.

The song's music also served as the basis of an English language song, "More Than Ever", with lyrics by Mary Bond, recorded in the United Kingdom by Malcolm Vaughan with the Michael Sammes Singers (HMV catalogue number POP 538) (14 weeks on the UK chart, peaking at #5), Robert Earl (4 weeks on the UK chart, peaking at #26), Eve Boswell, and others. Another English language lyric version of the song under the title "For the First Time", by Buck Ram, was recorded in the United States by Polly Bergen in 1958 (Columbia Records catalog number 41275). This version was also performed by Mario Lanza in his last film, For the First Time (1959).

Other performers who recorded versions of the song were The Platters (1958), Willy Alberti (1958), Dean Martin, Muslim Magomayev (1961), Tony Reno & the Sherwoods (1965), and Golpes Bajos (1985). Cliff Richard sang it in Italian on his album When In Rome (1965).

In 1991, Hong Kong actress Gloria Yip recorded a cover version of the song in Japanese.

In 2012, Belgian singer Frank Galan recorded a Dutch version of the song, entitled Valentina, which he included on his album Mooier dan woorden.

Brazilian superstar Caetano Veloso sang "Come prima" on his recorded concert Omaggio a Federico e Giulietta (a tribute to Fellini and Giulietta Masina) in 1997, performed it live at the Italian Sanremo Festival in 2013, and included the song in his world tour with Gilberto Gil in 2015 (live album in 2016).

In 2017, Dallara's recording was used in both a UK Coca-Cola commercial and a Fiat 500 commercial.

Not only was Pablo Picasso one of the most influential artists of the 20th Century, but he also pioneered the world of modern art. More than just the varying themes and elements Picasso utilized, his diverse works range so broadly in style and form. With his ability to convey such strong and raw emotion within the most basic shapes and colors, Picasso's style was the perfect choice to inspire many of our gorgeous Ketubah designs.

PayPal founder Peter Thiel is leading a project to create an independent nation that will float in international waters and operate within its own laws. The world's first floating nation, set to appear in the Pacific Ocean off the island of Tahiti in 2020, is designed to 'liberate humanity from politicians'.
The radical project is being executed by the Seasteading Institute, a nonprofit with a diverse global team of marine biologists, nautical engineers, aquaculture farmers, maritime attorneys, medical researchers, security personnel, investors, environmentalists, and artists.
The first island is being funded by a coin offering, a new concept gaining popularity in Silicon Valley in which money is 'crowd sourced' by creating and selling a virtual currency.
According to a feasibility report by Dutch engineering firm Deltasync, the first city would be built on a network of 11 rectangular and five-sided platforms so it could be rearranged according to its inhabitants' needs like a floating jigsaw.
The square and pentagon platforms will measure 164 ft in length and will have 164 ft-tall sides to protect buildings and residents. The platforms will be made from reinforced concrete and support three-storey buildings such as apartments, terraces, offices and hotels for up to 100 years.
The nonprofit hopes to raise around $60 million by 2020 to build a dozen buildings.
"Our in-house team is now actively engaged in diplomacy with host nations, making the case that hosting an autonomous seastead city in their territorial waters would produce significant economic, social and environmental benefits for their citizens.
How do I join that community?


The McCann Next initiative presents a platform and opportunity for the next generation to come together to share and co-create with assistance of experienced McCann professionals as mentors. Some 60 Saito University College students are expected to be in the McCann Next community of like-minded talent who will push the boundaries of creativity.
Present at the signing ceremony in McCann Erickson's office at Ascent Paradigm were Sean Sim, CEO of McCann Erickson Malaysia (pictured left) and Ooi Chee Kok, Principal of Saito University College (right).
The project complements the two and a half year courses offered at Saito University College and means that upon completion of the program and their tertiary education, these students will have a stronger foundation and be better prepared to enter the workplace. Participants gain valuable insight and experience through attending talks and workshops, undertaking real time briefs and realising conceived ideas in an encouraging and inspirational environment.
"McCann Next not only enables these students to be taken under the wings of experienced mentors, it provides a platform for young like-minded talents to come together to share and co-create," said Sim.
"This is essentially an industry initiative that we hope will help us attract and retain the young and brightest talents for our industry. It appears that the youth of today are so keen on the idea of becoming entrepreneurs and joining small start-up companies that they overlook the thrill and value of working alongside creative peers in a professional setting with long-time industry experts. Through McCann Next we are showing that the advertising industry is always at the forefront of innovation and thriving with entrepreneurial spirit. It allows freedom to explore possibilities, applauds original thought and appreciates the next-generation's drive to push creative boundaries," added Sim.
This is the first phase of the McCann Next initiative and with Saito University College being a pioneer in Malaysia's art and design education; it was a sensational choice of collaborative partners to lift-off with. McCann Erickson intends to build relationships with other schools, colleges and universities in order to expand the program.
McCann Next is a regional initiative driven out of APAC, which started out as McCann Millennials in Japan and over time will be rolled out to other countries. This project has already seen remarkable success in Japan. The innovative taskforce comprises promising university students nationwide and was launched in late 2015. Since its formation, the Japanese initiative has co-created innovative projects such as the world's first artificial intelligence creative director and the world's first mindfulness meditation robot. Shun Matsuzuka, the head of McCann Millennials, was present at the MoU signing to discuss his team's achievements and contributions to the advertising industry, as well as offer an example of what McCann Next can accomplish. Matsuzuka will be transferred to McCann Next.

Other central topics will be integrated care for elderly people such as pre-post and perioperative care in orthogeriatrics, cancer and cardiac surgery.


Emerging markets evolve economically, and successful investments favor early (though not necessarily first) movers. There is a window between economic growth and incentives to sufficiently overcome market risk; as the market grows, investor competition naturally reduces project returns. The eventual entry of utilities further accelerates this decline in investor returns. As emerging markets mature through growth, returns typically decline faster than risk. Late movers into emerging markets may find deal flow, but returns at this point are typically less than the risk exposure.
For example, many Latin American renewable energy investment opportunities are too mature to yield sufficient investor returns. Southeast Asia, on the other hand, currently fits squarely in the window of an attractive risk/return ratio. Instead of relying on precedent, investors seeking emerging market opportunities often mistakenly turn to mature markets, because they either don't understand their true nature, or don't have the capacity to identify and manage emerging market risks.
Early mover investors looking to leverage that "sweet spot" in the risk-to-returns ratio face unique challenges due to their experience in more typical, mature market investments. In other words, these investors will not have a precedent to reference. The diversity of cultures, business practices and languages in these new markets, as well as shortfalls in the existing legal frameworks, can create a sense that risks are unidentifiable.
However, the rapid growth in emerging markets indicates these risks can and are being managed successfully by well-prepared investors. Successful investors in this market segment implement a robust, integrated risk management approach, leveraging advisors with emerging market experience and a comprehensive risk management strategy.
Investors prefer to see risks transferred, either to the contractor or project insurers. This requires a lawyer and insurance broker. However, the one person commonly overlooked is the project manager. The project manager uses his or her experience of building and operating renewable energy projects to bridge the gap between technical and commercial in identifying project risk, plans, and integrates risk strategies between project plan, contracting, and insurance, and manages the risk during project execution. Without a project manager experienced in emerging markets, legal and insurance risk strategies are developed in "silos", presenting gaps that ultimately manifest themselves as cost and schedule overruns in construction, and revenue losses in operations.
Project Manager – The root cause of typical technical problems on emerging market projects is the gap in understanding between experienced foreign advisors and local technical professionals. From a European perspective, renewable energy (specifically wind) is a 35-year-old industry, and technical advisors from mature markets tend to interact in emerging markets from that perspective. Local engineers can reinforce this perspective, as most local engineers are very bright and capable. They just don't have the years of experience to know where the typical pitfalls in renewable energy projects lie. In other words, local engineers don't know what they don't know. Meanwhile, foreign engineers don't ask what would be considered the "dumb" questions – basic things that are unique to renewable energy projects: design, logistics, construction methodology, and off-taker interfaces. A knowledgeable project manager with experience of building renewable energy power plants in emerging markets is critical to evaluating project risks, expecting the unexpected, and developing a robust risk plan.
Project Attorney – Too often we see a contract "template" being used. An approach that assumes the next project will be identical to the last is dangerous, as, while there are similarities, each project has a unique risk profile. In emerging markets, general assumptions on risk mitigation cannot be taken for granted, and it is important to remember that the market may be developing legally as well as economically. Bonds may be difficult or impossible to call on if they are with a bank that doesn't have strict compliance regulations. Permitting will likely be unclear in a developing country, since emerging market regulatory authorities will have little previous experience. It's critical to have an attorney with experience contracting as well as contentious litigation experience, while focused in emerging markets. Understanding what went wrong in previous, similar projects helps ensure those lessons learned are brought to the next project.
Insurance Broker – Insurance is often an afterthought, parked during contract negotiations, and settled directly by project insurers and lender's insurance advisor, to meet the lender's minimum insurance requirements. However, the gap between contract caps, warranties, and exclusions, and the extent of insurance coverage is a very common cause of investor losses. Again, the risk profile of each project is unique. Insurance coverage and interfaces with contracting should be contemplated prior to start of contracting, to ensure this gap is resolved. Given the risks involved in emerging markets, additional insurance coverage could be a wise investment. For a relatively minor increase in premiums, LEG3 coverage warranties defects in design, material, and workmanship. Requiring contractor professional indemnity coverage is a contractor cost. Coupled together, investors are protected against direct and consequential losses associated with latent defects, which could be catastrophic to investors should these "hidden" quality issues emerge.
In conclusion, the growth of renewable energy projects in emerging markets continues apace. Successful investors that leverage the high risk/return period of market evolution are those who move early and employ advanced risk management methodology. The key to risk management in emerging markets is a risk team with emerging market experience: a project manager, attorney, and insurance broker who work seamlessly to identify, plan and manage project risk comprehensively.

Q: PhpStorm - Add summary to commit message On professional git software like gitkraken, you are able to specifiy a commit summary message and a description.

It seems like in PhpStorm you can only write a description:

Am I missing it or is it not possible?

A: There are numerous clients that do not offer fields for subject and description separately. The usual convention goes like this:

Separate subject from body with a blank line

Git itself will then separate the subject from the description for certain commands that are supposed to only show the subject (e.g. git log --oneline).

LOFAR to extend into Ireland
The world's biggest connected radio telescope is about to become even bigger! LOFAR (Low Frequency Array) will expand into Ireland. This is not only great news for Irish astrophysics, but also for the International LOFAR Telescope (ILT)
(PresseBox) ( PD Dwingeloo, 16-01-12 )
The plans for a LOFAR station in Ireland have been around for a while, but now it's official: a LOFAR station will be built this year in Ireland. I-LOFAR (the Ireland-LOFAR consortium) has been awarded € 1.4 Million by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI). Together with € 0.5 Million in philanthropic grants plus contributions of I-LOFAR members, it is possible to build and exploit the LOFAR station, which will be constructed on the grounds of Birr Castle, located centrally in Ireland.
Today, during a meeting at Birr Castle, Irish Ministers Bruton (Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation) and English (Education and Skills) announced the award for I-LOFAR, as one element of a €30M investment by SFI in research infrastructures.
LOFAR is a world-leading facility for astronomical studies, providing for highly sensitive and detailed scrutiny of the nearby and far-away Universe. LOFAR is designed and operated on behalf of the ILT by ASTRON, the Netherlands institute for Radio Astronomy. Dr. Rene Vermeulen, Director of the ILT, is delighted with the news: "The added Irish antenna station will be an excellent enhancement, extending the ILT to a pan-European fibre-connected network spanning 2000 km. Such long distances allow exquisitely finely detailed sky imaging capability. And, at least as importantly, the Irish astronomical community will now add their expertise and effort to the "ILT family", in the pursuit of a great many cutting-edge science questions that LOFAR can answer. Topics range from the properties of the Earth's upper atmosphere, flaring of the Sun, out to the far reaches of the early Universe when the first stars and galaxies formed."
The International LOFAR Telescope is the largest connected radio telescope in the world. It is being steadily enhanced since the official opening by (then) Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands in 2010. There are currently six partner countries: of the 50 antenna stations, 38 are located in the Netherlands, 6 in Germany, 3 in Poland, and 1 each in France, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Together, these have many thousands of receiving elements. The new Irish station will increase the distances between antenna stations, thus providing finer image details.

Birds, Flocking Together And Why Constraints Are The Building Blocks Of Successful Teams.
In one of my earlier posts I basically advised that team members liking each other is the secret sauce of successful teams. Hand picking team members and creating a culture that is open, transparent and where most team members like and truly respect each other is a dream come true for most managers consulting around the planet. In reality most of us have to move from one client to another or one organization to another as we consult and work with multiple teams and deliver projects or products.
If you lead work with a team, and if you're not as lucky as I was thrice in my career, chances are that you probably inherited a part of or the whole of your team from their previous manager when you joined your organization.
When I first worked with an inherited team at Multiplitaxion Inc, I realized how different it is from hand-picking every single individual in your team based on your core values and your very own selection criteria. Internal frictions, ego issues and complexities within the team were way too high to get anything done. It almost felt like having walked into a fifth grade class room with students fighting with each other.
People often try to solve problems by introducing rules in an organization, in the form of "When situation X occurs again, you must do Y." I admit that I am sometimes guilty of such behavior myself, though I am convinced that it is not the best approach. It is better to leave rule selection to individual team members, and instead focus on imposing the proper constraints. Agile software development should be about setting constraints, not rules.
Fly in the same direction.
Specific implementations of these constraints are often used in the movie industry to create computer animated birds, bats, fish, penguins, you name it.
The mistake people often make is that they directly try to "program" team members by giving them rules to follow. "IF you receive this type of document THEN you must perform that activity," and "IF the customer wants some new requirement THEN you must start this-or-that procedure." But the power of complex systems is that agents can manage their own rule selection process. People must restrict themselves to setting constraints, and then allow team members to solve their own problems.
Agile software development is the natural approach to manage software projects. It sets constraints like "collaborate with the customer", "allow frequent changes" and "only deliver stuff that works". And then it's up to the team to select and implement rules like "IF the customer cannot travel THEN we do our demo using Skype," or "IF there's change request THEN we create a new branch in source control," and "IF someone breaks the build THEN he must wear the funny rabbit ears."
It's rare to find teams you genuinely and truly like working with; so much so that you see them as a part of your life rather than just colleagues. In order to land up with a team like that stars have to align and you genuinely have to be really lucky. If you're not that lucky however, or if you've inherited a team that has a little bit of friction, don't lose heart. Setup the basic constraints in place first; then give the team the basic freedom, flexibility and trust to form their own rules. Chances are that things might work out.
Who knows, you might even end up finding a few colleagues you genuinely start liking to work with over time. While Jurgeon, in his post, re-words the constraints for agile teams and considers them slightly different from the constraints of a flock of birds, I personally think the that original constraints for the flock of birds work for Agile teams as well. Team dynamics are stupid simple, you don't exactly require the IQ of a genius to get it. You can literally be as half witted as a humming bird and still get it all right. The only thing you have to know well is flocking together.
Remember; Don't Leave the group. Don't bump into each other. Fly in the same direction.
Everything else, including all your process and rules, is just details.
Flock on people. Flock on.

Q: Queue with time My solution passes basic tests... But I came up with 1 test that kills it. What did I do wrong?

Problem: A hospital in the city of N is asking for your help. During the pandemic there are too many visitors at the doctor's office. The doctor's appointment lasts for exactly K
minutes. If a visitor arrives at the moment when the therapist is already taking someone, he gets in a queue. No one likes lines, so before you take any action, the hospital administration has asked you to find the maximum length of the line for the last day.

*

*The first line of input data contains two integers N - the number of
visitors for the last day and K - the duration of the reception of 1
patient.

*The second line contains N numbers, sorted in ascending order: ti -
the time when the i-th visitor came to see the therapist.

*The output should contain a single integer - the maximum queue length
of the last day.
    #include <iostream>
    #include <queue>

    using namespace std;

    int main() {
        int n, k;
        int res = 0;
        queue<int> q;
        cin >> n >> k;

        for (int i = 0; i<n; i++){
            int t;
            cin >> t;

            while (!q.empty() && q.front() <= t) {
                    q.pop();
            }
            res = res < q.size() ? q.size() : res;
            q.push(t+k);
        }
        cout << res;
        return 0;
    }

Basic tests:
5 2
1 4 6 8 20
(result 0)
6 5
0 5 10 15 19 25
(result 1)
My test:
10 10
11 16 44 67 74 79 82 89 93 95
(result 2, but there should be more)


Ameripride steel offers many benefits over conventional construction materials. First, steel is less costly than other building materials, and fewer materials are needed in the construction process. Since fewer materials are used in the construction process, less labor is required. Plus Ameripride Steel manufacturing buildings go up a lot faster than other materials.
Steel is very strong, and resists the harshest weather including, wind, rain and snow. In addition, steel is resistant to fire, and termites are a non-issue. Another great benefit of Ameripride Steel is when a clear-span structure design is implemented you have less interior columns, up to 300 feet wide of obstruction free manufacturing space. This is huge especially if your plant involves lengthy assembly lines or if you require frequent tow motor use.
An obstacle free environment allows you to plan the most complex and efficient manufacturing building possible. Plus less interior obstacles can result in less injuries, and easier maneuverability when moving materials within the building. Of course, you can also opt for a multi-span metal building. This type of structure does have more interior column but is less expensive. If you are not sure, or want pricing information simply call our toll free number and a trained technician will find the solution that works best for you.
Of course, Ameripride offers pre-fabricated buildings designed for ease of construction, and pre-fabricated buildings go up fast. The instructions are detailed, clear, and to the point. All of the steel is pre-drilled, pre-cut, and pre-welded at the factory. Plus, Ameripride only uses 100 percent American steel. All buildings come standard with a 25 year warranty and Ameripride steel manufacturing buildings require virtually no maintenance. You can expect your Ameripride steel building to last last 50 years or more.
Ameripride delivers quality steel buildings at a competitive price. We are dedicated to providing the best customer service, period. Furthermore, the days of bland and ugly steel buildings are a thing of the past. Ameripride offers modern and attractive steel buildings, and they are available in a multitude of different colors. You can even customize the building's exterior with brick, stone, stucco facings, if you choose. Call Ameripride today for your next steel manufacturing building.

Q: Hibernate foreign key column length mismatch I have a Hibernate Entity, say A, with a column defined as
@NotBlank
@Size(min = 2, max = 50)
private String name;

This A entity is being referenced as foreign key in another entity B as
@ManyToOne(optional = false, fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
@JoinColumn(foreignKey = @ForeignKey(name = "fk_a_b", value = ConstraintMode.CONSTRAINT), name = "aName",
        referencedColumnName = "name", updatable = false)
@NotNull
private A a;

Now when hibernates try to create table, it is creating column name as varchar(50) in table A, whereas column aName in table B is being created as Varchar(255). This is causing the following error while creating foreign key constraint in MSSQL:
2018-05-10 07:34:42 ERROR SchemaUpdate:main - Column 'A.name' is not the same length or scale as referencing column 'B.aName' in foreign key 'fk_a_b'. Columns participating in a foreign key relationship must be defined with the same length and scale.

I do not see an option to set column length for column aName which is being used to reference column name. The only solution I see is using columnDefinition which I dont want to use as it get specific to a database. Is there any other way to resolve this?

A: I have stumbled upon the same problem. I'm not using MSSQL, but it seems to happen with the databases I've tested too, which are H2 and MySQL, although an error is not thrown there.
Specifying @Column(length = ...) on the referenced column explicitly solves the problem. This should work:
@NotBlank
@Size(min = 2, max = 50)
@Column(length = 50)
private String name;

About an hour before kickoff of Monday night's Sugar Bowl between No. 15 Texas and No. 5 Georgia, some brainiac had the idea to get a photo-op with the two school's live mascots.
What happened next could be the impetus of a new reality television show called "When Mascots Attack."
Remember, kids, these are plushy, massive-headed gymnasts inside these "costumes."
But Monday, Bevo, the Texas Longhorns steer, busted out of his enclosure to try and crush Uga, the Georgia Bulldog.
It proved to be a precursor to the game as the lower-seeded Longhorns did, indeed, hook the Dawgs, 28-21.

Nikodem Erazm Iwanowski herbu Rogala (ur. w 1844 roku w Parogach, niedaleko Tryszek – zm. 23 stycznia 1931 roku w Parogach, niedaleko Tryszek) – polski pisarz, malarz, publicysta i ojciec pisarek Lazdynų Pelėda.

Życiorys
Rodzicami Nikodema byli Ksawery Feliks Iwanowski i Józefa Tomaszewicz. Dziadek Jan Dominikowicz Iwanowski był sędzią granicznym powiatu szawelskiego. Ród Iwanowskich pochodził z okolic Połocka, czyli z ziem ruskich Wielkiego Księstwa Litewskiego, skąd przybyli na Żmudź w 1684 roku. Nikodem ukończył studia malarskie w Warszawie i Monachium (w maju 1869 r. zgłosił się do Akademii Sztuk Pięknych - Antikenklasse: immatrykulacja 12 IV 1870 r.), skąd wrócił na Żmudź do swego majątku. Przez pewien czas mieszkał także w Warszawie. Pisał artykuły do "Biesiady Literackiej" oraz wiersze i ballady w języku polskim. Korespondował z czołowymi polskimi pisarkami tych czasów: Elizą Orzeszkową i Marią Konopnicką. Jako malarz znany jest z obrazów religijnych, znajdujących się w kościołach żmudzkich. Córkami Nikodema były siostry Iwanowskie: Sofija Ivanauskaitė-Pšibiliauskienė i Marija Ivanauskaitė-Lastauskienė, używające wspólnie pseudonimu Lazdynų Pelėda (Sowa z leszczyniaka). Z nich Marija pisała początkowo po polsku do polskich czasopism. Później obie siostry pisały po litewsku.

Active radar reflector
By Paul Herzog on Apr 9, 2014 at 1:38 PM 3 Vote 0 Votes
Most everything, including our "active radar reflector" , was destroyed during a recent dis masting,
I find very little info re radar reflectors and would like recommendations for an active one.
We do have AIS and recognize its value in collision avoidance but some vessels do not have this aboard and radar is still used.
Looking forward to all responses

I purchased, but then returned an active radar reflector (See-Me) at a West Marine closeout (at $49, it was practically free in 2006), but then returned it (buyer's remorse) due to the difficulty in installation (many), its high weight (including cables) and the serious limitations it had interacting with more than one radar at close range. (I am not familiar with how RTE's may have improved in the last eight years, to know if these are still issues)
Take a look a this Echomax passive inflatable I wrote about in 2011. It is has put my mind at ease.

A: Use netcat!
netcat -u [node ip] [port]
this opens up a connection to the UDP server on the node and allows you to send UDP messages from the console.

Mortice locks differ from other types of locks in that they are set inside the body of the door, rather than fixed to the surface. The 'mortice' is the space that is cut out to fit the lock into, so is fitted into wooden doors that can be drilled and chiseled out to size. Designed for longevity and strength, they are ideal for frequent use over many years.
The deadbolt component of a mortice lock is the locking bolt which is moved in or out of its keep with a key. Mortice locks with sash locks hold the door in a closed position while unlocked with a latch operated by lever handles or knobs.
Lever locks work via a series of levers inside the case to operate the deadbolt mechanism when the key is turned. More levers mean a more secure lock. A 5 lever lock is, therefore, more secure than a 2 or 3 lever lock. Internal doors are suitable for fitting with a 2 lever or 3 lever mortice locks whereas only 5 lever mortice locks are recommended for external doors. Locks conforming to British Standard 3621 are recommended by insurance companies and can be identified by the Kitemark on the faceplate.
A night latch is commonly used to secure front doors ideally in conjunction with a separate deadlock. It has a spring loaded latch that can be opened with a knob from the inside but allows the door to be secured just by closing it. A cylinder lock operates the latch to open the door from the outside with a key.
Security is your priority. Understand what the different types of lock are designed for and consider what level of protection you require. Take advice if you are not sure. When replacing an existing lock, for example, it is a good idea to measure the mortice pocket and existing lock for convenient replacement. Lastly, cosmetic options include different finishes such as brass or chrome.
We stock a full selection of mortice locks suitable for all security levels from bathroom locks to British Standard 5 lever deadlocks, in a range of styles, sizes, and finishes. We are happy to advise to help you make the right selection.

The One Bermuda Alliance had access to voters' contact data including email addresses in 2012, it has emerged.
But the party says that access was inadvertent and they refrained from using the information at the request of the Parliamentary Registrar.
According to persons with direct knowledge of the matter, the data was made accessible to both parties via web services set up by the Parliamentary Registrar's technical team following a request from then OBA Deputy Chair Michael Branco.

Q: When I try to run this code it's gives me no output I built it when I click to run it's showing no errors no warnings nothing
#define __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO 1
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
    char name[20], address[30];
    char c;
    printf("put your pass key: ");
    c = getchar();

    printf("Enter your name: ");
    scanf("%s",name);

    printf("Enter your address: ");
    scanf("%s",address);

    printf("--------------------------\n");
    printf("Entered Name: %s\n",name);
    printf("Entered Address: %s\n",address);

    printf("Your pass key: ");
    putchar(c);
}

I tried to run it from pass key point and it works but when I continue it's given me nothing

A: I have compiled you code and it works fine for me. Everything is fine. Maybe the input values provided by you is not in correct format.

A: The Code is working perfectly fine.
Check your results here.
As rng70 said, recheck your input values. Also, if you're adding spaces between your string input, it won't work because whitespace acts as a delimiter for scanf() by default.
Sorry to bother!
To be precise, characters after spaces are not considered as input for strings, if that's what your error is.
To solve that problem, you can use scanf("%[^\n]", name);
Check md5's post on this for assistance. Thanks.

A: Unfortunately, I'm not sure if I understood your question correctly.
However, under Linux the program would work the following way:
You close your eyes, assume your program works correctly and type. You will see:
put your pass key: KMartin
Enter your name: Enter your address: Hello
--------------------------
Entered Name: Martin
Entered Address: Hello
Your pass key: K

Why?
When you type some keys in Linux, the operating system will store the keys pressed in some buffer until the "enter" ("return") key is pressed.
Maybe MINGW has the same behaviour.
So the program reaches getchar() and I type "K" "M" "a" "r" "t" "i" "n".
Linux stores these keys into a buffer and instead of passing these keys to the program.
I press the "enter" ("return") key. Then Linux will pass the "K" to the getchar() function and the remaining keys ("Martin") to the scanf() function.
This behaviour can be disabled:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <termios.h>

int main(void) {
    char name[20], address[30];
    char c;
    struct termios tios;

    printf("put your pass key: ");

    /* Disable the buffer */
    tcgetattr(1,&tios);
    tios.c_lflag&=~ICANON;
    tios.c_cc[VTIME]=0;
    tios.c_cc[VMIN]=1;
    tcsetattr(1,TCSANOW,&tios);

    c = getchar();

    /* Re-enable the buffer
     * If the buffer is not enabled,
     * sscanf() won't work correctly. */
    tios.c_lflag|=ICANON;
    tcsetattr(1,TCSANOW,&tios);

    printf("\nEnter your name: ");
    ...

... and the output will be:
put your pass key: K
Enter your name: Martin
Enter your address: Hello
--------------------------
Entered Name: Martin
Entered Address: Hello
Your pass key: K

EDIT

i run it on eclipse and it's shows nothing but when using repl like @user366312 it works I don't see anything in console on eclipse

The consoles in Eclipse typically do not allow input so programs can write output but not receive input.
However, I know that there is some check box (at least in some Eclipse versions) that allow input...
I don't know if you will have the problem I described above when using Eclipse.
However, if you have that behaviour, the settermios method probably won't work...

Hyannis man convicted of burglaries, tax evasion seeks sentence reduction
Wheeler Cowperthwaite @WheelerReporter
Mar 12, 2019 at 7:30 PM Mar 13, 2019 at 6:30 AM
George Upton argues he is due credit for time served between state, federal terms.
BARNSTABLE — One of the Cape's most notorious criminals, who was transferred into state custody in December after serving a 13½-year federal sentence for tax evasion and money laundering, now seeks to have a few years shaved off his state sentence for a string of 2004 burglaries.
George Upton, 65, of Hyannis, argues he was to be given credit for time spent in custody between his 2005 sentencing in the federal case and his 2007 sentencing on the state charges. The Federal Bureau of Prisons, however, classified those two years as a "detainer," attorney Richard Barry said in a motion seeking to revise the sentence.
"As a result of the Federal Bureau of Prisons' actions Mr. Upton's 13½-year sentence has become a 15½-year sentence," Barry wrote.
Barry said he previously tried to get appointed to deal with the issue of Upton's sentence but Barnstable Superior Court Judge Gary Nickerson, who has since retired, declined.
"Nickerson felt there may be a few Mason jars of cash buried in the backyard," Barry said, referring to whether Upton could afford a private attorney.
Judge Robert Rufo appointed him after a hearing Tuesday, but Barry said he wanted to get a copy of the transcript from the plea hearing to look at the conversation between Nickerson and Upton before arguing his motion.
Upton and Nickerson both thought he was serving his federal sentence at the time he pleaded guilty in state court, Barry wrote in the motion.
Nickerson granted Upton credit for 825 days of time served toward his seven- to 10-year state sentence. The balance of the sentence was to begin after he was transferred from federal prison, according to Barry and the Times coverage at the time.
According to court documents, the Bureau of Prisons sent a letter to U.S. District Judge Patti Saris in 2014, stating it needed clarification on whether she intended Upton's federal sentence to run after or at the same time as his state sentence.
Although Saris ordered the U.S. Attorney's Office and Upton's private attorneys to respond to the letter, she never issued an opinion clarifying her sentence.
According to the letter, the bureau said it would make its own determination if it received no response within 60 days. It apparently decided not to give Upton credit for time served, resulting in his release in December 2018 instead of January 2017.
In the federal case, Upton was found guilty of stealing $900,000 from Steven Queen of Hyannis in 1997 and laundering the money through purchase of a car dealership and commercial property. Queen disappeared the following year and has never been found. Police believed that Upton killed him or had him killed.
Upton's former girlfriend, Lynn Alberico, was found guilty of related charges in 2006 and was sentenced to two years and three months in prison.
In the state case, Upton pleaded guilty to 41 counts for his role in break-ins at seven Cape businesses in which $1.6 million in goods were taken, including $800,000 in jewelry from Eden Hand Arts in East Dennis. He also pleaded guilty to receiving stolen artwork from a Hyannis man.
A hearing on Barry's motion is scheduled for May 14.

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning while Boating
Hidden Dangers Result in Carbon Monoxide Poisoning while Boating
Carbon monoxide poisoning while boating results from design flaws in boat exhaust which are not clearly obvious to most boaters.
In recent years the speed of the propagation of half-truths has increased dramatically due to social media. The reason I am not referring to such information as misinformation is that it is often based on some event which rapidly comes into public view with very few details; either intentionally or unintentionally. These are often statements which we repeat to others as though they were verified facts meant to prove a point.
One of the serious dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning while boating is that seating areas are designed near the rear of the boat, including cup holders.
One such snippet of information which comes readily to mind is the McDonalds hot coffee incident in which a customer was burned by a cup of hot coffee. This incident made it into our daily conversations usually to prove the point of frivolous lawsuits. We are prone to accept these examples of human shortcomings without question or without any knowledge of what is behind them. But when we delve deeper into the facts, we discover that a financial decision was behind raising the temperature of the coffee being served to increase the profit per cup by pennies which added up to a substantial sum and that the victim in this case suffered third degree burns as a result.
The lawsuit no longer seems so frivolous when we understand the circumstances behind this news story. The public is inclined to remember headlines, and not the facts.We also have a strong inclination to adopt a "buyer beware" attitude when it comes to product liability. And we often find it amusing that certain products bear what we feel are unneeded warnings. We scoff at warnings such as not using a blow dryer in the shower or not consuming certain products not meant for consumption. Yet the dangers the public encounters are often easily diverted by minor changes. Take for example, the railing design at the exits for school buses. Several children were dragged to their deaths when the hood ties in their jackets hooked on bus handrails. Concerned parents discovered a simple inexpensive part which was easily installed which would prevent future deaths. And warning labels are also an inexpensive and easily applied deterrent to danger. Warning labels are reactions to events which have happened.
I was thinking of this introduction after a recent conversation I had. I was talking to a neighbor who owns a boat about my topic for my article. When I described an example of carbon monoxide poisoning in boating, I mentioned the dangers of sitting on the rear swim platform. His response was "Doesn't everyone know not to sit on the swim platform when the engine is running?" This made me think of growing up on the ocean in Alaska. For years, we owned a boat as the sole means of transportation. My dad took a boat to work in the morning. I spent a good portion of my childhood and teenage years on one type of boat or another. Yet not once was I warned to stay out of the back of the boat while we trawled for salmon or halibut for endless hours. Until I started researching the topic a year ago, I was completely unaware of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning while boating. I cannot recall one drowning incident in which carbon monoxide poisoning had been mentioned as a possible cause. Now, thinking back it makes me wonder if what we didn't know then might be looked at very differently today and how many lives might have been saved over the years.
In my previous blogs about the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning while boating I had mentioned the fact that it wasn't until around 2000 that the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning from rear ventilation was brought to light. This occurred because of a study of boating deaths on Lake Powell in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah. Several deaths came to the attention of the National Park Service and the US Department of the Interior. The studies revealed that many deaths attributed to drowning were directly connected to the lethal build up in carbon monoxide through exposure to exhaust. This could occur near or under a swim platform or near any exhaust system, and it could also occur in the cabin due to atmospheric conditions, defect or leaks or through improper venting.
In trying to understand the risks of carbon monoxide poisoning while boating, boats from many manufacturers were examined and the problem was found across the board. Concentrations of carbon monoxide were often found which were too high for detectors to accurately measure. A consensus was reached that the solution to the problem would be for manufacturers to produce cleaner burning engines.
A concerted effort was made to not only educate the public to the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning while boating, but also first responders and emergency room staff.
Two decades later, we are still reading tragic headlines of deaths or injury due to carbon monoxide poisoning while boating. In these cases, warning labels have failed to provide adequate warning to the public. According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the United States Coast Guard, since 2001 boating deaths have risen. In 2020, 75% of fatalities from boating accidents were labeled as drownings and 86% of those were not wearing a lifejacket. In 2020, 5 deaths were directly attributed to carbon monoxide poisoning. Deaths attributed to what appear to be natural causes are not included in boating accident statistics. Deaths in which alcohol is involved are attributed to alcohol use. 41 incidents of non-fatal carbon monoxide poisoning were reported in 2020.
However, the 2000 study found a correlation between undiagnosed carbon monoxide exposure and drowning. They further found that the incidence of carbon monoxide exposure in non-fatal incidents was significant and surmised that many such incidents go unreported as carbon monoxide poisoning mimics the symptoms of other illnesses as well as often being attributed to alcohol consumption.
Drownings from carbon monoxide poisoning while boating
Let's take a closer look at drowning incidents from the public perspective:
Boating was on the rise last year due to Covid-19. More people were enjoying boating as a means to enjoy socially distanced recreation. More people had flexible work schedules which allowed for more recreation time. Boat sales were on the rise and more first time boat owners were taking to the water. In May, 2020, the boost in sales was reported as a 75% increase over 2019 with some dealers reporting a 300% increase in sales. First time boat owners weren't only buying new boats, they were buying pre-owned boats as well. It was a seller's market with demand overwhelming supply throughout the lockdown. Boating was touted as being one of the best ways to enjoy the summer during lockdown. But were boat owners as knowledgeable as they should have been about carbon monoxide? Was access to boating instruction restricted due to Covid? Those are questions that may continue to plague us for the post-lockdown years.
Safety from Carbon Monoxide poisoning while boating an Illusion
One of the reasons that we feel safe from carbon monoxide on a boat is the illusion that being in the fresh air makes carbon monoxide poisoning impossible. Carbon monoxide is odorless. And it is a fast killer. We also feel safe in the belief that our boats have a venting system designed for human occupancy and under any conditions. But carbon monoxide poisoning is one of the top five causes of death while boating annually according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
A recent story at Today.com tells a family's story of the death of their 21-year-old daughter in May. Their daughter was an experienced swimmer, which added to the confusion surrounding the reported drowning death. It was later determined to be carbon monoxide related. The truly interesting thing about this case is that upon examination this boat model had seats and cupholders in the back end of the boat and the Yamaha owners' manual states
"Passengers must always sit in a designated seating area." https://www.today.com/health/boat-carbon-monoxide-poisoning-woman-21-drowns-lake-trip-t229191
Swim Platforms are Serious Design Flaw
Although the owners' manual warns about sitting on the swim platform during the boat's operation and diagrams safe seating areas, it is hard to reconcile the presence of seating in an area determined to be unsafe during the boat's operation. Today went on to test that area with a carbon monoxide detector and within a few minutes it had spiked to 700 parts per million. They also measured the air around idling boats in the area and found readings of 400 parts per million. For one of our prior blogs on carbon monoxide poisoning while boating, click here.
Another, not uncommon thread, involves extensive 'No Wake' zones. These are long stretches of water where boats are required to idle or drive at a speed only sufficient to propel the boat forward. They exist for many reasons; to protect residential properties, to protect people in the water, to protect structures such as overpasses or bridges, to slow traffic when approaching a water intersection, or to protect wildlife habitat.
A No Wake zone was part of the story in June, 2020 when a family was returning from a day on the water with tired, cranky kids on Lake Eufaula in Oklahoma. With 20 years of boating experience, they never dreamed their youngest son would fall victim to carbon monoxide poisoning. When Andrew had curled up to sleep in the back of the boat they attributed his complaints to too much sun. Their other children were also complaining of headaches and nausea. Upon docking and attempting to rouse the kids, Andrew rolled off the back of the boat and by the time he was rescued, he was unresponsive and it was too late. According to the September, 2020 article on Today.com, Andrew's mom said:
"People need to understand, we are experienced boaters. My husband has almost 40 years and I have been boating for almost 25 years. We had a friend with us, she had been boating another 30 or so years."
And although they were competent, they were all unaware of the danger of carbon monoxide poisoning on a boat. "None of us had ever heard of it. None of us had considered it," she said. "We were stunned."
Boat Cabins can accumulate Toxic Fumes
Rear exhaust exposure is not the only hazard in boating. In July, 2021 the Coast Guard was asked to respond to a report of a boat circling the Cleveland crib water intake in downtown Cleveland. Upon arrival the Coast Guard broke a window to gain access to the cabin and discovered two men deceased on the scene and a minor who was found to be unresponsive. The boy eventually succumbed to carbon monoxide poisoning in the hospital. Witnesses had reported that the boat's engines were running. First responders had reported a carbon monoxide detector which was sounding.
In August, 2021, four people were injured and one died due to carbon monoxide poisoning aboard a cabin cruiser on the Lake of the Ozarks.
Anytime combustible fuel is present, the potential for carbon monoxide exists. There have been many attempts to bring the relevant information to the public throughout the past few years. Many such endeavors are fueled by the surviving family members of those who have perished. Efforts have been towards boat manufacturers themselves to modify systems which have performed poorly under certain non-ideal circumstances, to redesign exhaust systems and to move towards cleaner burning engines which produce much less carbon monoxide. Many efforts have been made to educate the public and to insist that those in the business of selling boats educate their customers. Tremendous efforts have been made to educate first responders to the scene of a boating accident to consider carbon monoxide as a possible factor and for medical personnel to rule out carbon monoxide through appropriate testing.
As always, one of the easiest and most inexpensive guardians for boaters are marine carbon monoxide detectors, specifically designed for marine environments. Most marine detectors are under $100 and the benefit they provide is priceless.
Know the symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure and don't take them lightly. Symptoms can include: headache, confusion, fatigue, nausea, dizziness and ultimately seizures and unconsciousness. There is a tremendous page for boating carbon monoxide safety at https://www.uscgboating.org/assets/1/Publications/co_brochure_0105.pdf
This is a brochure in a pdf format for marina operators everywhere. It includes checklists to insure that every trip is a safe one, including maintenance checklists to make sure engines and generators are operating properly. This brochure is a must have for boaters, especially all of those first time boaters who took to the water during Covid. But as you have seen, even long term boaters can learn more about carbon monoxide safety.
One of the important points in the brochure is educating everyone embarking on a day on the water as to what the symptoms are and to react immediately if carbon monoxide can't be ruled out. This means getting them to fresh air, shutting off any fuel burning devices and opening doors and windows if applicable. If carbon monoxide exposure is suspected, seek medical care. When carbon monoxide levels are elevated, even a few breaths can injure or kill you.
As I said at the beginning of this article, we are exceptionally clever at putting safety warnings in the half-truth column and minimizing the issue of public safety. Often manufacturing companies are happy that these half-truths exist to put the burden on the public in order to safeguard profits. But, as members of the public, we are also accountable to each other to continue to spread information that might ultimately save lives. Education goes a long way to extending the reach of warning labels.
When my neighbor said "Doesn't everyone know that you can't sit on a swim platform while the engine is running?" I responded "No, no they don't. And my job is to let them know'". I hope the takeaway is that we let everyone know why and how carbon monoxide can kill.
Happy and safe boating and please check out the U.S. Coast Guard brochure at:
