ACM: rates charged by ATM operator Geldmaat to other banks not unreasonable, information about its services to be more transparent
The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has established that the rates that Dutch ATM operator Geldmaat charges other Dutch banks for using the new (yellow) ATMs are in a reasonable proportion to the costs. Information about the rates and conditions of Geldmaat's ATMs will be made available to all banks that would like to use its network.
What are Geldmaat's activities?
Geldmaat operates a network of ATMs, and was founded by the major Dutch banks ABN AMRO, ING, and Rabobank. These three banks combined operate a large share of all ATMs in the Netherlands. Since 2019, the ATMs of these three banks have gradually been taken over by Geldmaat. All banks, including banks that do not operate ATMs of their own, are allowed to use this network, so that all consumers in the Nethrlands are able to use these ATMs. Geldmaat charges banks a fee for using the ATMs.
ACM's investigation
ACM received complaints suggesting that Geldmaat charged other banks too high rates for using the network. That is why ACM launched an investigation. ACM has now established that Geldmaat's rates are in reasonable proportion to the costs. Furthermore, other banks are able to use the network of ATMs at the same rates and under the same conditions as the three founding banks do. Moreover, the average rate that non-affiliated banks pay is lower than the rate paid by the founding banks. That is why ACM has closed the investigation into a possible violation of competition rules. ACM has had discussions with Geldmaat about possible steps on how to improve transparency vis-à-vis other banks.
Michiel Denkers, Director of ACM's Competition Department, says: "ACM finds it important that consumers continue to be able to withdraw cash. Geldmaat is able to offer that with an efficient network of ATMs, which are evenly spread out across the country. In that context, it is important that the rates and conditions are reasonable, and that they are clear to all banks. Only then are the founding banks and the other banks able to compete on an equal basis. And that, in turn, is good for the price, quality, and innovation of financial services".
What are the next steps for Geldmaat?
Following the discussions with ACM, Geldmaat will take several concrete steps to improve transparency:
Geldmaat will inform banks about the rates that Geldmaat charges and about the different services that can be taken out;
Geldmaat will inform banks about how it determines the rates;
Geldmaat will inform banks about the requirements they need to meet in order to be able to take out services (or additional services) from Geldmaat. These may include, for example, technical requirements;
Geldmaat provides the above information to all banks that are interested in taking out services (or additional services) from Geldmaat. In addition, Geldmaat will add information to its website about the services it offers.

Prison Architect Review
Written by Rick Lane
Tags: #prison-architect
Companies: #introversion #introversion-software
1 - Prison Architect Review 2 - Prison Architect Review
Developer: Introversion
Publisher: Introversion
I think I'm getting the hang of this prison-building lark. I've constructed two prison blocks without breaking the bank, and my prisoners have access to all basic facilities, toilets, showers, canteens, and a yard for exercise and free-time. There's a common room where they can relax, shoot pool and watch TV, and a visitation area where they can spend quality time with their families. I'm even thinking about starting some reform programs, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, psychotherapy, those sorts of things.
All in all, I'm pretty proud of my prison. There's just one teeny, tiny problem. It doesn't have any walls.
Walls, it turns out, are quite important when building a prison. I suppose I knew this deep down, but it was surprising how long it took for the importance of walls to become apparent. My first influx of prisoners seemed quite happy to be transferred to my holding cell and wait there while I figured out what the hell I was doing. Then I got a little sidetracked by the bureaucratic side of prison building, hiring employees, tending to finances, plotting out guard patrols, and so forth.
"It's fine," I told myself as my prison expanded and my walls didn't. "The prisoners seem nice enough. There's only been one murder and a couple of beatings. It's fine."
It wasn't fine.
Building things in Prison Architect is a gradual process. But your prisoners don't understand that. They want everything now and are more than happy to show their discontent, which they duly did when I dragged my heels building a visitation area. But as far as I'm concerned they can shout all they like behind closed doors. This proved to be a pretty good policy until the doors weren't closed anymore. That's right, one day all of the doors in my prison just opened. I don't know why this happened, but it turns out doors are very important in a prison too, especially when you don't have any walls. Ten prisoners escaped that day. Another four died in the ensuing ruckus, and multiple prisoners and guards were carried off to the infirmary with serious injuries.
Prison Architect might give you the job of building a prison, but what it's really about is getting that job horribly, horribly wrong and dealing with the consequences, often with the aid of a mop and bucket. It's a unique and delightfully detailed management game. What's more, the stories that result from trying to spin its many plates are equal parts wonderful and horrifying.
Playing Prison Architect does take a bit of getting used to, however. This isn't surprising given Introversion has been adding layers to it over four years. Even so, I bounced off my first attempt at prison architecture like a squash ball off a speeding train. There's an awful lot to take in at once, and money is supremely tight, so it's possible to bankrupt yourself before you've built your first prison block.
To aid this, Prison Architect offers a five-mission "Campaign", which is really a tutorial wearing a cunning disguise. Even here, the beginning is an odd one, asking you to build an execution chamber in order to carry out a death sentence. Through this, Prison Architect teaches you the basics of laying foundations and constructing rooms, but the subject matter makes it feel weirdly like you're starting at the end. Nevertheless, it's worth persevering. The campaign allows a certain level of creativity, and the loosely connected stories it tells are surprisingly compelling.

Q: Pandas column dict split to new column and rows I have a dict in pandas dataframe column, the input is,
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame([{'A': {'k1': 10}}, {'A': {'k2': 20, 'k3': 30}}, {'A': {'k4': 15}}])

df
                        A
0             {u'k1': 10}
1  {u'k3': 30, u'k2': 20}
2             {u'k4': 15}

I would like to split the keys and values of dict in column 'A' to new columns and split to rows(depends on number of keys in the dict), basically output should look like,
  keys  values
0   k1      10
1   k3      30
2   k2      20
3   k4      15

A: Use list comprehension with flatenning for tuples and then DataFrame contructor:
L = [(k1, v1) for k, v in df['A'].to_dict().items() for k1, v1 in v.items()]

df = pd.DataFrame(L, columns = ['keys','values'])
print (df)
  keys  values
0   k1      10
1   k2      20
2   k3      30
3   k4      15

Or create DataFrame and stack:
df = (pd.DataFrame(df['A'].values.tolist())
       .stack().reset_index(level=0, drop=True)
       .reset_index())
df.columns = ['keys','values']
print (df)
  keys  values
0   k1    10.0
1   k2    20.0
2   k3    30.0
3   k4    15.0

A: Option 1 (If you have all unique keys in sub-dictionaries)
dict with collections.ChainMap
from collections import ChainMap
dct = dict(ChainMap(*[i['A'] for i in d]))
pd.DataFrame(list(dct.items()), columns=['key', 'value'])

  key  value
0  k1     10
1  k4     15
2  k2     20
3  k3     30

Option 2 (If you might have duplicate keys)
itertools.chain.from_iterable
dct = list(itertools.chain.from_iterable([i['A'].items() for i in d]))
df = pd.DataFrame(dct, columns=['key', 'value'])

  key  value
0  k1     10
1  k2     20
2  k3     30
3  k4     15

Hard Rock Hotel Tenerife set to lift Playa Paraiso, Tenerife
Posted on May 20, 2016 by advartis in Tenerife News
Hard Rock Hotel Tenerife
PLAYA Paraíso's new, spectacular, 70-million-euro Hard Rock Hotel, which is scheduled to open on 15th October, is already taking bookings!
The luxurious 5-star Hard Rock Hotel Tenerife will stage an official opening in December 2016. But, as Sergio Zertuche, Vice-President of Sales and Marketing for the Palladium Hotel Group owners, said: "We already have a reservation for 16th October, so we have to be open by then!"
He was speaking at a press conference, held in the FIT centre, in Adeje's Centre for Tourism Development.
It followed his morning session with the Adeje authorities and local Playa Paraiso businesses, discussing the area's update in general, and the changes a hotel of this quality and kind would bring to the zone.
Adeje Mayor José Miguel Rodríguez Fraga said the hotel would act as a market accelerator in what was already an attractive area, "increasing the competitive element".
He added: "We have an opportunity to renew the zone with a product that is completely different, and focus in a new way, which will complement our move to diversify our tourism offer."
During the meeting, concerns of the small and medium companies locally were also taken on board, with measures discussed about how best meet the new kind of clientèle the Hard Rock Hotel will bring to Plays Paraiso.
This will the second Hard Rock Hotel in Spain – the first is in Ibiza – and Sergio gave assurances that the new Playa Paraiso version would not be a copy of the Ibiza hotel, adapting instead to its new surroundings.
However, many of the elements will be similar, and the hotel will, in the main, cater for young couples and families.
There will be three pools, a variety of restaurants, a beach club, rock spa, body-rock gym and a Hard Rock Roxity Kids' Club, among the amenities.
Local residents will also be able to enjoy many of the facilities, restaurants and bars open to the public.
Sergio said the hotel would also have a 'Vibe Manager', "who will look after the vibe in each zone, and check the music is right".
So there could be someone playing an electric guitar solo at the pool bar, and something completely different in another part of the hotel, with "pop-up performances" as well.
The Palladium representative said the company had invested 70 million euros in the hotel, which is being fashioned by renovating an existing hotel in the resort, converting it from a 3-star to a 5-star hotel – something his company has completed before "very successfully".
The number of rooms will be reduced from over 1,000 to 624, but the higher cost of the overnight stays will bring different types of clients.
A four-phase plan has been developed by FIT (Factory for Tourism Innovation), in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce, Tenerife Cabildo and Tenerife Tourism, to help renovate the zone with the existing small and medium enterprises in Playa Paraíso.
It will include a series of innovation workshops, point-of-sales diagnostics, assistance on interior renovations and upgrades, and an overall improvement of the resort's tourist spaces.
The aim, within the reach of experts in commerce, sales and clients, is to improve and upgrade the local commercial offerings to meet the needs of new clients and, at the same time, improve the income potential of the businesses themselves.

I ran down to the basement to get the plumber's emergency number from the furnace. The water was cold and ankle-deep. Light fixtures had fallen, and one was dangling. Bookshelves had collapsed. The floor was an underwater obstacle course of ceiling tile, magazines, and I didn't want to know what else.
I entered the phone number by the light of my cell but couldn't get a signal so I ran back up the stairs, my wet shoes squishing and squeaking with each step. Our HVAC company said they'd get someone there ASAP. As I waited for the plumber to get through the Monday afternoon traffic, someone from the office tried to talk me through finding the shut-off. He had all the calm patience of Captain Pierce directing surgery over the phone, but the basement was so dark, and I didn't want to flip a light switch because I was up to my ankles in water, and lights were on the floor anyway, and I had to keep going back up the stairs to communicate, and I couldn't find the right place, so Hawkeye suggested I call the fire department.
I heard the siren from around the corner just as the plumber sprang from his van, asked, "Where's the basement?" and ran down through the door I showed him. The water stopped gushing. The plumber and I then gathered in the kitchen, where the water level was lowest, along with the two firemen, who remembered my parents. I didn't know what I was supposed to do. The plumber told me to call my insurance company and recommended ServPro for the massive clean-up that would follow.
The Liberty Mutual rep was pleasant and helpful as she took down the information I gave her, asked questions, gave me a claim number, and told me to keep my hotel and restaurant receipts. She said that ServPro could call them directly to arrange authorizations and payment for their part of the work. Next I called ServPro; they said somebody could be by in an hour or so. The plumber and firemen stayed with me until they knew someone else was on the way. Another plumber would be coming in the morning to fix the heat.
While I was waiting for ServPro, two other restoration company reps came by, having learned of my plight from the public fire department call. I felt like they wanted to gnaw on my freezing bones.
Dave from ServPro arrived around 6:30, looked around, and called Liberty Mutual, who asked him to hold off on clean-up until the heat was restored.
I checked in to a Hampton Inn in a nearby town, took a hot shower, and couldn't sleep.
Early the next morning, I met Zane, another plumber, at the house. After checking the system out, he concluded that the cause of the trouble was a broken valve on the boiler, which caused the heat to go out, which caused the pipes to freeze and burst. On Wednesday, he came back with a replacement valve and got the boiler going. Then began a game of Whack-a-Mole. Every time he fixed one pipe, water would go a little further and leak from the next pipe. At some point, two more plumbers came to help. I was thankful that all three were nice and competent guys, with a good attitude as they worked hard to get the heat working. Much of what hadn't been damaged by the flood itself had to be demolished by the repair, as they pulled down what was left of the family- and living-room ceilings and cut into walls to access the pipes. Water leaked from baseboards one by one and onto the hardwood floors upstairs and down. I bundled up in leggings, two pairs of sweats, two pairs of socks, a turtleneck, a cardigan, a hoodie, and two knit hats and tried to help.
On Friday morning, a woman came to remove samples from every wall and floor on the first level to test for asbestos, which was found in the kitchen, mud, and powder room floors. The one good thing that happened that January 20 was that the heat was finally fixed, though the domestic water was still off. I called Liberty Mutual and ServPro to give them the good news and drove back to the Hampton Inn.
Dave called back to say that an electrician would be coming by at 1:00 to make sure there was enough power for ServPro's massive drying equipment. Moments after watching Donald Trump become president, I pulled into my driveway, where the electrician was waiting, and drove into the garage, where he followed me. Then he went into the basement, pronounced my electrical system "gahbage", and rigged power for the ServPro equipment.
A small army of ServPro guys came, bringing enough fans to rival the Hancock wind tunnel. They were great guys too, pleasant and polite, and they kept me in loop every step, patiently answering my questions. They carefully wrapped wine glasses and spread the soaked family photos out to dry as they moved furniture into the garage and even onto the back porch, checking with me before throwing away ruined art and artifacts. My heart sank as I told them to toss my mother's carefully preserved wedding dress.
On Sunday, the electricity blew out. The guys worked until dark. I had to have one of them clear a path through the maze of heavy green fans in the kitchen so I could get into the garage and pull the manual release to open the door and drive back to the Hampton Inn.
ServPro's electrician said he couldn't come back until Thursday, so the guys brought a generator and heaters on Monday to keep the dry-out going as they continued pulling down walls, pulling out insulation, and pulling up flooring. The insurance adjuster also came on Monday to see the damage for himself and take notes and measurements. He also coordinated with ServPro to use their pictures and samples of flooring.
Demolition continued for several days, but my one relief was that the kitchen floor cabinets could be saved. I settled into a routine; I'd come out from the hotel around 8:00, let the guys in, ask if I could do anything for them, and mostly stay upstairs behind a zippered plastic barrier, with no power and no running water. As soon as they left, I grabbed a flashlight, unzipped my plastic prison, found my way out the front door and around to the unlocked garage, and drove back to the hotel.
Following up Wednesday afternoon on an email from Dave, I called three different numbers at MassDEP to obtain an emergency waiver to have the flooring with asbestos removed and got three different voicemails, one with an out-of-the-office message from August. I left one message on one of the other voicemails, which advised quite firmly to leave one message, and waited for a call back. Yes, I'm an idiot. I did receive a call from the electrician, saying he couldn't come until Friday.
By Thursday, I still hadn't heard from MassDEP, called all three numbers again, and got all three voicemails again. Finally, someone at the asbestos abatement company was able to get through to an inspector, who called me to give me a waiver number, which I then called to relay to the abatement company, a weird game of telephone on a strangely cold afternoon for August.
Stress on the other hand moved quickly. My jaw started to crack. My pale skin turned pasty, and my eyes took on a hollowed-out look. When I looked in the mirror, I saw my mother.
Early Friday morning, I met the asbestos crew, who sealed off the three rooms and left for the weekend. The electrician came back and restored most of the power to the house, and a pleasant local inspector pronounced his work fine but advised me that I'd need another inspection before the walls were closed up during the rebuilding. Unfortunately, the electrician didn't restore power to the garage, saying it wasn't part of his contract. I turned to another electrician I'd used before.
On Monday, the asbestos crew came, pulled up the floors, and butchered the kitchen cabinets. They hadn't told me that the refrigerator was unplugged, so it had gone without power for eight days. I still had no running water, so I threw away all the rotten food but couldn't wash out the interior.
At first I brushed it off. "I cook; I've been burnt before; this isn't too bad." And for three or four minutes, it wasn't. But then the pain seared as second-degree burns formed on two of my fingertips. Basic first aid says run cold water over burns; don't use ice. But I didn't have running water, and I couldn't take the pain. I spent the rest of the day with my fingers wrapped with ice. Back at the Hampton nine hours later, I put a cup of ice water by the bed, took three Advil, and dipped my fingers in the water till I fell asleep.
On Wednesday, ServPro finished their demolition; my electrician fixed the power in the garage; the plumbers restored the running water, and I washed out the fridge. On Thursday, I moved back home and did a laundry marathon. I hadn't been able to wash my own clothes for nearly a month (I had to order socks and other things from Amazon), and nearly every towel and rag in the house had been dirtied in the clean-up.
By nightfall, the house was feeling pretty creepy. All the first-level flooring was gone; there remained just slats with gapes and hollows big enough to see into the basement. The door to the basement had been removed, as well as the door between the kitchen and dining room, and the doors to both hostess closets in the foyer. The powder room was also bereft of its door, as well as its walls, toilet, and sink. The ceiling and wet bar in the family room, where we used to sit in the evenings, were gone, as was the ceiling and fireplace mantle in the living room, where I used to watch the Red Sox with my father the last summer before he died. In the dining room, where we used to have holiday meals, there were large holes in the ceiling and upper walls; the wainscoting was completely torn out. There was a large hole through the center of the kitchen ceiling, above the peninsula that divides the area where we used to cook and bake from the area where we used to have family dinner at the table, where I last laughed with my father hours before he went to the hospital that final time, where I sat across from a mother who no longer knew me and tried to make half a conversation. Even with the heat set to 70 degrees, the downstairs was cold and drafty, with no sheetrock or insulation. My home looked and felt like one big spooky cabin, haunted by torn-up memories and the sounds of a New England winter night.
On Friday, my nails and skin cracking from so many days in the cold, I went to Bella Sante, my favorite local day spa, for a Dazzle Dry manicure and their Provence Soothe and Scrub Massage and my first afternoon of relaxation in weeks. Then Saturday, I set out for Virginia to await the insurance estimate. As I drove the miserable drive down I-95, I thought about how my recent ordeal had strangely strengthened my confidence; if I could handle this, I could handle anything.
I have been very satisfied with Liberty Mutual. Everything is covered, after our small deductible. It has been a particular relief to have enough coverage for restaurants and hotels when the house has been uninhabitable.
Maintain an emergency household fund in a liquid account.
Liberty Mutual paid ServPro directly, and the adjuster gave me a substantial check when he came out, but it wasn't enough to cover the plumbing bills, let alone my hotel and restaurant costs; I had to pay those costs out of pocket and await reimbursement.
Keep emergency numbers handy near the most commonly used door.
Also keep a notebook and pen. Include your doctors, plumber, and power company. Also note a restoration company; I highly recommend ServPro. Doing this would have saved me from wading through the flooded basement to get the plumber's emergency number.
Keep all important documents in a strong box.
Include birth, death, baptism, and marriage certificates, the deed to the house, titles to your cars, passports. Consider including some emergency cash.
Know where the emergency shut-offs are.
This probably wouldn't have done me much good, because the damage to my house was already so severe by the time I discovered it. But if you catch a problem right away, it could save you substantial trouble.
Store what you must, but do so neatly in clear or labelled plastic bins, not cardboard boxes. Part of the reason it's taken me so long to clean out this house is that my mother saved so much–every calendar and every budget notebook from every year, every card and drawing my brother and I ever made, every ribbon from every gift we ever received. Just a month before the flood, my wonderful aunt helped me clean the basement, which in the first moments after the flood seemed like a wasted effort but really is a very good thing; it may or may not have saved me from breaking my neck tripping over clutter as I waded through the water in the dark, but sorting through things is a lot easier when they're dry.
Become active and involved in your local area and fight to keep all environmental and safety regulations minimal and enforced locally.
The local people I dealt with were courteous, caring, and helpful. State bureaucrats were unresponsive. Do not willingly cede any control of your home to bureaucrats who don't know you from church or PTA meetings.
Be grateful it isn't worse.
It's trite and true. As long as no one was killed or seriously injured, everything else is just stuff.
A major disaster is overwhelming. You might think you'll remember everything but you won't. Keep a notebook of everything you have to do. It will save you a lot of stress.
Be good to the people who come to work for you.
No one expects you to display the wit of Mark Twain. But no matter how stressed and heart-broken you are, you can still be courteous and appreciative. Ask how you can help them, and then let them do their jobs. Both the plumbers and the demo crew thanked me for being so nice.
This is an extremely stressful time. When your home isn't right, nothing is right. You have people asking questions and myriad big and little decisions to make, and no peaceful home in which to rest and recover at the end of the day. Do what you can to eat right; exercise right; sleep right. I achieved all this with varying success. The first couple of days I couldn't eat or sleep. By Wednesday evening, the exhaustion and hunger caught up with me. I started going to Skybokx 109 in the Hampton Inn most evenings for dinner. Of course, sports bars aren't known for their healthy menus, but you can make do. I started with soup every night, usually tomato bisque, and very welcome at then end of a long day in a cold house. Then I'd have a salad or a healthy appetizer like ahi tuna, skipping the wontons. I did decide I'd earned a nightly glass of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc, and most nights I treated myself to a couple of Hampton's complimentary oatmeal cookies. In the mornings, I never knew what time I'd be eating again, so I stuck with tummy-filling protein at the hotel's breakfast buffet, scrambled eggs or an omelet, turkey sausage if they had it. No hunger-spiking carbs–no bagels, no scones, no pancakes. The Hampton was a little sporadic about having its grab-and-go sack breakfasts available, but I took one whenever they were there. The bottle of water was particularly welcome on long days without running water at the house, and the apple was filling on afternoons without lunch. For the first week, I couldn't even think about exercise, but afterwards I started going to the hotel's small gym to squeeze in 20-30 minutes of stress-relieving cardio on the treadmill. I was also able to start reading and writing in bits and pieces after a week, but most nights I'd drift off watching Frasier.
On the bright side, I did lose another nine pounds.
Thank you, I'm so glad you both found my tips valuable. I have great empathy for others who go through similar disasters, and I do want my advice to be helpful for them.
Home disasters are so awful! We lived through Hurricane Harvey and while our home didn't flood, so many did and it was heartbreaking! I'm so sorry for what you've gone through! This is a great article to help people prepare for the unexpected because home disasters can and do happen all the time.

Mastercard has several plans in the works to target half a billion people around the world who fall outside the realm of the formal financial sector, according to Carlos Menendez, president of Enterprise Partnerships at Mastercard. Its latest initiative is to partner with consumer goods giant Unilever and provide entrepreneurs in emerging markets with resources like digital payments capabilities. In an interview with PYMNTS.com's Karen Webster, Menendez explored how Mastercard's coinciding efforts to promote smart cities around the globe are part of the financial inclusion agenda.
The Mastercard/Unilever partnership will begin in Kenya, where the companies will work with local entrepreneurs — with a particular focus on female business owners — to connect them to digital financial resources.
Linking them to digital payment technology is one way for them to not only strengthen their own companies, but expand that success outward. For instance, digital solutions heighten visibility into cash flow and, Menendez explained, inventory or product movement throughout the supply chain. A stronger business means stronger sales means stronger economies.
Reducing consumers and SMEs' dependence on cash is one step in this direction. Just look at India, where demonetization may have emerged as an effort to curb fraud but is now propelling FinTech's ability to reach new customers and promote the use of electronic payments. Working in Kenya will help small businesses similarly enter into a digital economy.
"Too many small merchants and micro entrepreneurs are stuck, like their customers, in a cash economy that doesn't work for them," said Mastercard President and CEO Ajay Banga in a statement announcing the collaboration with Unilever.
Starting with an entrepreneur in a developing market is just one aspect of promoting financial inclusion. Menendez told Webster that linking small and micro-businesses into a digital economy is also part of Mastercard's smart cities effort. According to Menendez, buses are a critical component of a smart city.
"We focus not just on the established cities of the world when we talk about transit — not just the Londons and the New Yorks — but also what we do for the Mumbais and the Lagos," he explained. Financial inclusion, he continued, is also about better transportation for citizens, so Mastercard has its eye on transportation and infrastructure.
"Within the smart city concept, and the idea of financial inclusion within the city itself and how people get along — and you can see this in developed countries — an economic footprint is limited by how long it takes you to get from one part of the city to another," he explained. Consumers tend to shop within only a few miles of their home or place of work, Menendez added.
Transportation is critical to the financial health of a small business, too. If an entrepreneur is stuck within a cash economy, that small business owner will have to travel, often via bus, to some form of financial institution with loads of cash on their person. In some instances, individuals entrust the bus driver to carry that cash from one destination to another. This process raises loads of security issues, of course, and limits the time an entrepreneur has to focus on her actual business.
Bringing in these small business owners to the digital economy is one way to buck this trend. And smaller smart city efforts, like providing real-time updates on bus schedules to the individuals standing in line at a bus stop, can be a smart move, Menendez said.
Digitizing public transportation and other infrastructure, Menendez explained, is critical to the well-being of consumers and small business owners — and to the economy as a whole.

Demand for oil has significantly increased since the early days of this pandemic, but the question of when prices will truly stabilize is worth looking at. The price per barrel of crude oil was at a high of over $70 at the beginning of the year, and has since fallen and leveled off between $40 and $50 per barrel. When can oil producers expect these prices to rise, and how can they best prepare?
According to a new article by the Wall Street Journal, it may take some time. The good news, however, is that the recent approval of multiple vaccines has made the price of oil rise, and we may see prices well into the $60 range. By late 2021, the Wall Street Journal expects prices to restabilize, and the oil market to have completely recovered. In some places such as China, demand has already returned to nearly pre-pandemic levels.
While late 2021 may seem like a long ways away, the reality of the matter is that this timeframe is right around the corner, and prices will rise gradually rather than all at once. Oil producers can prepare for this rise now, and be ready for when prices increase by having their supply chains modernized. With Tangent industrial grade computers, oil production facilities can prepare for an increase in demand in a flexible and efficient manner.
Tangent Industrial Grade Computers For Oil Production
If these last few months have taught us anything, it's that oil production needs to be flexible. In the early days of this pandemic, oil producers were forced to turn off wells, and were uncertain of the long term damage this could cause said wells. Preparing for situations like these is now in the playbook for oil producers, and flexibility is the name of the game.
With Tangent industrial computers, oil producers can customize their oil rigs, processing plants, and supply chains to maximize their flexibility. With multiple customization options, Tangent Industrial computers can be a part of numerous operations in your oil production chain, regardless of their levels of production.
Tangent's mini industrial computers like the Rugged Mini E3 are fully customizable, with options for RAM up to 32 gigabytes. This means that they can run as few or as many industrial programs as needed. Their small form factor also allows them to be situated in nearly any part of an oil production facility, or even inside an industrial vehicle as in-vehicle industrial computer.
Rugged Mini E3 Industrial Computer
Other industrial computers like the Rugged Mini O from Tangent are IP69K rated to be water and dust proof. This allows them to be used in harsh conditions like on oil rigs without worry about their long term performance.
Rugged Mini O Industrial Computer
With all of Tangent's industrial computers, your facility is utilizing computational power that can be shifted and altered at your discretion. In-vehicle computers can become oil rig monitors, oil rig monitors can make their way into oil production plants — the list goes on.

Protecting Workers In Meat Processing Facilities
While many employees are essential during this pandemic, few fit the label as well as meat processing plant workers. These workers are vital to keeping the nation, and world, fed during these trying times. But more often than they should, these essential workers are falling to the virus at work. This cannot only upend their lives and livelihoods, but hinder the supply of one of the world's most vital resources: food. Keeping meat processing plant workers safe is synonymous with keeping the global food chain safe, and Tangent is here to help.
Keeping Workers Safe With Social Distancing
The easiest way to keep workers safe in your meat processing plant is to ensure they keep their social distance from one another. While it may be difficult to achieve this when multiple workers are needed in one area, there are some workarounds. Creating "pods" of workers can ensure that if an infection does occur, it only affects a small portion of your facility's labor force.
Outside of social distancing, replacing workers on the line with industrial computer solutions can help isolate potential outbreaks. With industrial computers, meat processing plants can space out workers while still maintaining the same — or even an increased — level of productivity.
Industrial grade computers by Tangent are built for food processing facilities. Industrial computers like the Rugged Mini O from Tangent are fully IP69K rated water and dust proof. This means that they can withstand the messy environment of meat processing plants, while still maintaining their computing edge.
Other industrial computers like the Rugged Mini E2 can withstand temperatures as low as -40°F — making them perfect for use in refrigerators and freezers. These industrial grade computers are perfect for keeping your facility running smoothly and safely.
Tangent: Here To Help
Tangent is committed to providing industrial facilities of all kinds with the tools they need to produce goods safely and efficiently. Tangent industrial computers are one way we do this. With Tangent's lineup of industrial grade computers, your facility can promote social distancing and keep employees safe. Contact Tangent Sales Today for more information.
Manufacturing Electric Vehicles For The Future With Industrial Computers
December 9, 2020 Michelle
There's no doubt that electric vehicles are the path forward for the auto market, but this truth has been hard to see during the pandemic. Auto sales rose for a fifth straight month in China, that's according to Bloomberg News. This 5 month trend is beginning to give the impression that the two year automobile sales slump in the country, and woes from the pandemic, are over in the country. Auto manufacturers like Tesla are leading the way in the electric vehicle sector in China, but other car manufacturers are also getting a slice of the pie.
Electric Car Manufacturing
The challenges of electric car manufacturing are many when compared to traditional combustion engine vehicles. However, the challenges are well worth overcoming. According to Bloomberg, passenger-vehicle sales excluding minivans will rise by 7% next year in China, with electric vehicle sales increasing nearly 35% to 1.7 million units over all. With only 275 million of China's 1.4 billion people currently owning a vehicle, this trend may continue for years to come.
In order to prepare your facility to produce electric vehicles, preparations need to be made as soon as possible. With Tangent industrial computers, this transition can be easily made.

Automation With Industrial Computers On The Rise
Automation is on the rise both nationally and globally, in part because of the ongoing pandemic.85 million jobs are set to be upended by automation by 2025 — that's according to a report by the World Economic Forum. However, this same automation is also slated to bring 95 million new jobs to the economy, and may help usher in a boom of manufacturing. In the short term, automation with tools such as industrial computers can help factories operate in effective, socially distanced ways. In the long term, automation can help manufacturing facilities survive the pandemic and prosper while doing so.
Industrial Automation With Industrial Grade Computers
It's no coincidence that automation is on the rise currently. Automation in factories has seen a recent boom even before the pandemic thanks to the introduction of smart factories. Smart factories leverage the latest technology to create cutting edge facilities that often employ more robots than people. These facilities can serve as a blueprint for other factories, including your own.
S Series Of Industrial Computers
By using the latest industrial grade computers, your factory can run the latest industrial software with ease. Tangent's lineup of industrial computers has been designed from the ground up to be ready for automation, and can help your facility cut down on labor costs and manufacturing time.

Tangent industrial computers can house up to 32 gigabytes of ram — more than enough to run multiple automation applications at once. Smaller, mini industrial computers can fit into your facility while taking up the lowest possible amount of space, no rearranging required. With Tangent, a boost in productivity is both possible and seamless.
Automate With Tangent
Tangent industrial computers are designed to help your facility make the jump into automation. With Tangent industrial grade computers in your factory, your facility can operate in a safe and efficient manner. Contact Tangent Sales today for more information.
Preparing For A Possible Surge With Medical Computers
Top U.S. health officials are forecasting a post-Thanksgiving surge in the ongoing pandemic, according to the New York Times. With incubation times ranging from as little as four days to two weeks, we may be in a calm before the storm. The time for hospitals to prepare for a spike in cases is now, and Tangent is here to help.
Antimicrobial Medical Computers
Hospitals around the country are facing staffing shortages, with the usual source of extra staffing — hospitals in other states — being nearly depleted. Hospitals cannot afford for their staff to fall ill now, and especially if a post-Thanksgiving surge does occur. To combat this, every precaution must be taken. Hospitals are already employing numerous effective protocols to keep their staff safe, but Tangent can offer an extra layer of protection to doctors and nurses.
Medical Computers From Tangent
These essential employees can make use of Tangent's antimicrobial computers to stay safe and sanitary. Tangent's antimicrobial computers are medical computers that have been treated with an antimicrobial coating which mitigates the growth of harmful bacteria on the computer's surface.

Is U.S. Manufacturing Back?
November 24, 2020 Michelle
U.S. manufacturing, like most sectors, took a nosedive at the start of the pandemic. Since then, the sector has seen a drastic and rapid recovery. Today, signs suggest that U.S. manufacturing is finally rounding the corner. Factories are once again outputting goods, demand for these goods is rising, and the economy is seeing stability for the first time in months. But the pandemic is not over, and factories need to continue their vigilance in order to make sure this recovery stays on track.
Contact Tracing Efforts
Contact tracing is crucial to keeping U.S. factories open. When a worker falls ill, the potential for cases to spread is real. Keeping on top of workers with regular testing is key to stopping cases in their tracks, but contact tracing is just as important. Make sure that workers who test positive recall every other worker they interacted with, and all equipment they may have used.
Social Distancing With Industrial Computers
If workers share the same equipment, outbreaks in your facility may be more severe than they otherwise would have been. Giving workers their own workstations with industrial computers can potentially cut back on the potential of widespread cases in your factories.
Industrial computer workstations don't have to be entire cubicles, with rugged mini PCs they can be as small as your factory requires. Rugged mini PCs are small industrial computers with all the power of their larger counterparts. With Mini industrial PCs, workers can have entire workstations without the square footage they require. Mini industrial computer-based workstations also promote social distancing by allowing every worker to do their tasks on separate devices.
Re-Energize With Tangent
Manufacturing is up, but so are cases. Make sure that your factory is equipped with the technology to keep your workers socially distanced and safe. Tangent industrial computers can help your factory do just that. Contact Tangent Sales today for more information.
Industrial Computers Built For Car Manufacturing Plants
Consumer spending is up, and it is looking like demand for consumer goods is once again on the rise. We are nearing pre-pandemic levels of consumer spending on all sorts of goods. But one shining example is the automotive industry, which has seen a drastic increase in demand. To meet this demand, car manufacturers may need to increase the production capacity of their factories. One of the easiest ways to accomplish this is with Industrial computers.
Industrial Computers For Car Manufacturing
Many of the challenges of car manufacturing have been overcome through the use of automation. Industrial computers have helped companies transform their archaic assembly lines into futuristic beltways. These industrial computers have helped organize and program robotic arms, keep track of auto parts as they move around the plant, and keep workers operating efficiently.
Industrial computers like the Rugged Mini O from Tangent can help take assembly lines to the next level. The Rugged Mini O is Tangent's most durable industrial computer, with an IP69K rating for being water and dust proof. This industrial grade computer can operate in nearly every environment, staying fast and efficient all the while. With extreme temperature resistance, this industrial grade computer is perfect for situations where other computers simply couldn't operate.

The 2013 NHL Season Thread
Punch replied to charger77's topic in Sports In General
I'm all for Columbus making the playoffs over Minnesota after this pathetic performance tonight. I loved how the Minnesota announcers were talking like the Wild making the playoffs was a sure thing even when they were down 2-0 early in the first period. Now they are less than 24 hours away from potentially completing the biggest late-season collapse in franchise history.
San Jose's win has made Minnesota's path to their first playoff berth since 2008 much simpler. If Columbus loses on Thursday or Minnesota wins on Friday, the Wild are in. They hold the tiebreaker over the Jackets (21 ROW to CBJ's 17).
The Wild are on their way to an eighth seed and they might miss the playoffs altogether. To be honest, I'd rather play Chicago in the first round because I don't want to play Anaheim again in the playoffs. I also don't want to stay up until midnight to watch a team lose in the first round when they could be finishing their early exit from the playoffs by 10 at the latest.

"If I Am Disqualified, My Role in Politics is Over," Says Sachin Pilot
By Molly 23-Jul-2020 43
After an internal conflict between the political leaders of Congress party, the ruling authorities of the party have decided to eliminate Sachin Pilot's name from the members of the legislature. Reports say that the decision has been taken after witnessing Pilot's anti-party actions like- ignoring the Congress party's orders to attend a meeting chaired by Ashok Gehlot.
Now the matter has been taken to the Supreme Court, and the court hears his case is against his own party. To this, close sources said that Sachin Pilot says- "If I am disqualified, my role in politics is over." Source: NDTV.
Today, the top court is expected to intervene to stop Sachin Pilot from being disqualified as an MLA in Rajasthan. Along with this, the court will be taking action on his being disqualified from 18 other legislators, who have cornered him after his conflicts with the Congress party.
Mr. Pilot has been reported to have said that- "If I win the court battle, I will continue to fight for my rights within Congress," Source: NDTV.
Those who are close to Sachin Pilot said that he had been reiterating a claim stating he (Sachin) would join the BJP party now. To this, Sachin said- "Why would I want to bring down the Congress government, when the idea is to change the leadership (in Rajasthan)", Source: NDTV.
Taking on this matter, Mr. Pilot vented to close sources and said- "Gehlot abuses me but is not reprimanded by the high command," Source: NDTV.
Recently, Mr. Gehlot invited 100+ MLAs to a hotel near Jaipur for yoga sessions, cooking classes, and watching movies. While all this, Gehlot described his former deputy as "nikkamma" (worthless) and commented, "an innocent face that disguised deep betrayal." Source: NDTV.

If our ancestors had the ability to regenerate teeth and limbs and now we can't; would this be evolution? Or is it devolution?
"If you trace our evolutionary tree way back to its roots -- long before the shedding of gills or the development of opposable thumbs -- you will likely find a common ancestor with the amazing ability to regenerate lost body parts."

About GVR - Green Valley Recreation Tour Video
GVR - Green Valley Recreation Area Information
Green Valley may well be the ultimate destination for active adults to thrive. The community is almost entirely targeted to those 55 and older and includes unparalleled recreation opportunities: 13 busy recreation centers, seven golf courses and miles of hiking and biking to name a few.
Facing the majestic Santa Rita Mountains 20 miles south of Tucson, Green Valley offers many housing options, from townhomes and condos to single-family homes, both new and existing homes that have been developed by many local, national, and semi-custom home-builders.
Green Valley attracts homebuyers from all over North America, Europe and Asia, drawn by its peaceful atmosphere, abundant recreational opportunities and an average 300 days of sunshine.
Perhaps the biggest attraction is Green Valley Recreation Inc. The recreation provider has more than 13,000 households as members. GVR completely redefines the term 'Retirement Community' by offering so much to do that its activity brochure reads like a college course catalog. Sure, there are the social clubs and card clubs, but athletes also line up for pickleball, tennis, swimming, biking and hiking. Members also sign up for woodworking, lapidary, dance, aerobics, yoga and other activities. While most retirement communities are limited to one clubhouse - GVR's 13 clubhouses and fitness centers are open to all members, as are all the specialty shops and pools.
Though home buyers come from all over, they have formed a unique sense of community, bonding together through the world-class facilities and clubs maintained by Green Valley Recreation, Inc., by diverse social and entertainment opportunities, and in volunteering their talents and energy with numerous service, civic and charitable organizations. And while there is the Alaska Club, the Green Bay Packers Club and other organizations focused on hometowns and teams. Residents can also serve on the boards of Home Owners Associations for one of the 100 plus different communities in Green Valley.
Green Valley is within easy reach of Tucson's shopping to the north and the artists' enclave of Tubac to the south, both along Interstate 19. To the east is Madera Canyon within the Coronado National Forest, which attracts bird-watchers from around the world, as well local hikers and campers. Just to the north beyond a shopping area, is Sahuarita, an all-ages community. Sahuarita has a small lake that is stocked monthly by Arizona Fish and Game and offers miles of trails, tree lined streets and the continuation of the historical De Anza Trail.

The Senior Games is open to all those over the age of 50 years old.

GVR FAQ's
Is GVR an HOA (Home Owners Association)?
No. GVR (Green Valley Recreation) is a private recreation provider for the majority of Green Valley Arizona. The GVR fees are sole and separate from any HOA fees.
So with an average monthly HOA fee in Green Valley of $40 per month and the GVR fee (divided by twelve months) the average combined monthly fees are approximately $80 per month.
Is GVR included in HOA fees:
No. Please see the answer above for an explanation and breakdown of fees.
Is Golf Included?
One of the many ways that GVR keeps costs down is by not including a golf membership for every member. There is still ample local golf available via Green Valley's 7 golf courses and 43 golf courses in the region. To learn more about Golf in the Green Valley area please visit our Green Valley Golf Course Information page.

ON SENATE FLOOR SHAHEEN CALLS FOR SWIFT PASSAGE OF EMPLOYMENT NON-DISCRIMINATION ACT
Shaheen: No one should be hired or fired because of sexual orientation or gender identity
(Washington, DC) – U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) is urging her colleagues to swiftly pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), a bill that would add sexual orientation and gender identity to important protections from workplace discrimination. In remarks on the Senate floor, Shaheen drew parallels between the struggle for equality during the civil rights movement of the 1960s and similar struggles LGBT Americans are dealing with today.
Below are Senator Shaheen's remarks as prepared for delivery:
Mr. President, almost fifty years ago Congress passed the Civil Rights Act.
This landmark legislation prohibited discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, and gender in employment, housing and public accommodations.
Most of us in the Senate recall the passage of this legislation.
And many of us saw firsthand painful examples of the legally-sanctioned discrimination that existed before the Civil Rights Act.
My elementary school years were spent in a state where black and white Americans were treated differently under the law.
I can still picture the separate water fountains for blacks and whites. I recall vividly going to the movie theater where black Americans could only sit in the balcony.
These practices were wrong, and they ended only because of the Civil Rights Act.
This week the Senate has the opportunity to extend our national quest for equal opportunity for all by passing the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
This legislation simply prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity.
I am proud to be a cosponsor of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, just as I was proud as Governor of New Hampshire 16 years ago to sign legislation making New Hampshire only the 10th state to include sexual orientation in its anti-discrimination laws.
That state legislation went further than the bill before the Senate this week. It not only covered employment, but housing and public accommodations as well.
Both the New Hampshire senate and house were controlled by Republicans. The bill passed both bodies with large bipartisan majorities. It was not seen as a partisan issue.
Including sexual orientation in New Hampshire's anti-discrimination laws was just another step forward in our state's long history of promoting civil rights.
No one should be hired or fired in the United States because of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
I realize that no law can erase prejudice from someone's heart. Prejudice will continue to exist after the Employment Non-Discrimination Act becomes law, I know.
That's not the issue.
The issue is whether it is acceptable as a matter of law in the United States to hire or fire someone because of sexual orientation or gender identity.
In declaring our independence from Great Britain, our founders stated "[w]e hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…."
Equality under the law is part of our national creed.
Let's take another step forward this week in advancing equal opportunity for all.
Let's pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act with a strong bipartisan majority.

Q: Handling complex hashes in perl I have simple perl script as below:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;
my %x;

$x{"a"}="b";
$x{"b"}={'c'=>3,'d'=>4};
$x{"c"}={'e'=>{'f'=>5,'g'=>6},'h'=>{'i'=>7,'j'=>8}};

print Dumper(%x);

This is outputting me as below:
> ./temp.pl
$VAR1 = 'c';
$VAR2 = {
          'e' => {
                   'g' => 6,
                   'f' => 5
                 },
          'h' => {
                   'j' => 8,
                   'i' => 7
                 }
        };
$VAR3 = 'a';
$VAR4 = 'b';
$VAR5 = 'b';
$VAR6 = {
          'c' => 3,
          'd' => 4
        };
,

But my desired ouput is something different.so i tried the below code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use Data::Dumper;
my %x;

$x{"a"}="b";
$x{"b"}={'c'=>3,'d'=>4};
$x{"c"}={'e'=>{'f'=>5,'g'=>6},'h'=>{'i'=>7,'j'=>8}};

foreach (keys %x )
{
        if(ref($x{$_}) eq "HASH")
        {
        print Dumper(\%{$x{$_}}).",";
        }
        else
        {
        print $x{$_}.",\n"
        }
}

But this gives me an output as below:
> ./temp.pl
$VAR1 = {
          'e' => {
                   'g' => 6,
                   'f' => 5
                 },
          'h' => {
                   'j' => 8,
                   'i' => 7
                 }
        };
,b,
$VAR1 = {
          'c' => 3,
          'd' => 4
        };

but what i need is as below.i donot need VAR1 etc and also => in the output.I just need the keys and values with a space in between them
c  {
          'e'  {
                   'g'  6,
                   'f'  5
                 },
          'h'  {
                   'j'  8,
                   'i'  7
                 }
        },
a b,
b  {
          'c'  3,
          'd'  4
        }

All perl experts out there ,could anybody give me the right direction to print the output as i need it!
i got what i needed from perleone's suggestion.
but i also tried the below staement:
my %y={"one"=>404,"two"=>\%x};

now if i do
print Dumper(\%y);

it gives me an output of :
> ./temp.pl
{
          'HASH(0x807f08c)' undef
        }

where did i go wrong here?

A: Have a look at the documentation. Use these settings:
$Data::Dumper::Pair     = ' ';
$Data::Dumper::Sortkeys = 1;
$Data::Dumper::Terse    = 1;

...

print Dumper( \%x );


Is It Wise To Build A Wall?
The Berlin Wall existed from 1961 to 1989. "During this period, around 5,000 people attempted to escape over the Wall, with an estimated death toll ranging from 136 to more than 200 in and around Berlin. In practice, the Wall served to prevent the massive emigration and defection that had marked East Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period"- excerpts from Wikipedia.
I personally saw the Berlin Wall twice-in 1979 and 1985. Each time I viewed it, I felt its negative energy. It divided people and caused much suffering because many families and friends were separated from each other. I value connecting people instead of dividing them. I also sensed the fear that was created by the visible guard towers and the machine guns poking out of the openings-armed and ready to kill anyone who attempted to cross the barrier.
Donald Trump would like to build a wall between the United States and Mexico. The proposed cost varies but it is in the billions. There is an initial cost of construction and then there are the costs of maintaining this divider. The erection of massive concrete barriers didn't seem to serve Germany well and was eventually demolished. I wonder if that money could be used in a more positive way? Might we look deeper to solve the root of the issues that prompted Trump to make this suggestion?
Trump says that this will make us safer from illegal immigration and drugs. Will a wall really stop these issues? Might there be other ways for people and drugs to find their way into the United States? If the people within the US continue to want drugs, they will find a way to get them. Might it be prudent to look at the root of the drug problem for a more effective solution? If someone really wants to enter our country, they will find a way around the wall. There are many methods and points of entry. Can all the ways be controlled?

The Missouri Supreme Court has ruled that a lawsuit filed over the Rams' departure from St. Louis will be heard in a St. Louis courtroom, a defeat for the NFL team's owner who sought to send the case to arbitration. The court issued its ruling Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2019, in a lawsuit filed by St. Louis city and county and the St. Louis Regional Convention and Sports Complex Authority, which owns the domed stadium where the Rams formerly played.

Kroenke, NFL appeal St. Louis lawsuit case to Supreme Court
ST. LOUIS (AP) — The NFL, Los Angeles Rams and team owner Stan Kroenke are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to consider why a lawsuit over the team's departure from St. Louis should be settled in arbitration, not open court.
The Missouri Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that the case should be heard in a St. Louis courtroom. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Kroenke, the Rams and the league filed an appeal Wednesday.
Kroenke's lawyers say that the Missouri Supreme Court ruling will cause "irreparable harm" to the Rams by denying the team's right to have the case resolved in arbitration.
The Rams moved to Los Angeles in 2016, prompting a suit by St. Louis city and county and the operator of the domed downtown stadium where the Rams formerly played.
