CLS's new payment netting service based on distributed ledger technology, CLSNet, has gone live with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley.
In a release issued today, CLS says that six additional participants from North America, Europe and Asia have committed to joining the service, although the only one it names is Bank of China (Hong Kong), and that the onboarding of several other market participants is planned in the next few months.
CLSNet has been designed to standardise and increase the levels of payment netting in the FX market for trades not settling in CLSSettlement. By standardising and automating the calculation of payment netting, CLSNet aims to reduce costs for market participants and increase liquidity in FX markets. The service was built in conjunction with IBM and runs on the Linux Foundation's Hyperledger Fabric blockchain framework.
Commenting on the launch, Alan Marquard, chief strategy and development officer at CLS, says: "We are excited to be launching CLSNet, the first service of its kind to be operated on a DLT platform. Further, this offering demonstrates how we are using our unique, trusted position at the center of the FX market to solve industry challenges. A standardised and automated payment netting process will lead to improved intraday liquidity, reduced cost, improved operational efficiencies and ultimately support business growth."
Adam Josephart, managing director, fixed income division, at Morgan Stanley, says: "CLSNet will deliver the standardisation and automation needed for non-CLS settled transactions. We are delighted that Morgan Stanley is one of the early adopters of the service."
Barry Lo, general manager, bank-wide operation department of Bank of China (Hong Kong), comments: "We take great pleasure in participating in CLSNet, which will enhance operational efficiency in trade matching and payment netting for non-CLS settled currencies such as CNH, and strengthen our risk management. This underscores our strong commitment to driving Fintech innovation and represents a major step forward in the application of new technology in our businesses."
Marie Wieck, general manager, IBM Blockchain, says: "Since we first pioneered the use of blockchain in the FX market nearly three years ago, IBM has been working hard with CLS on the development and deployment of CLSNet as the first post-trade production deployment of blockchain technology in a global market utility. With CLSNet now in production with two of the world's largest banks, for a major market function, it is a testament to the ongoing maturity of blockchain technology and the value that it can deliver in practice."

Select the priority that if you not select in AMC then you go for CMH Lahore. Both college has different seas allocation for the applicants.

Assalam o Alikum sir, I am Neelam Muneer from karachii want to ask that I have given my improvement in year 2014 but result has not been announced yet so I want to ask that which marks i should write in the form of army medical college and I have done my fsc from khatoon e Pakistan not from an army college so the fee for 5 year mbbs plan would be the same for those students have done their fsc from cadet college or there is a different criteria???????????kindly answer my question as soon as possible….
Nelaam you apply on the base of 1st Year marks. When you apply you just write First years marks in box of Fsc marks not put any information in secod part of HSSC.
Fee Structure for NUST Cadet in AMC is same for each single applicant Rs 7,50,000 for 5 Years. Only paying cadet fee is different and low from NUST Cadet who pay Rs 36000/- per year.
You, apply on the base of A Level 1st Part result. Still you have one papaer left then its not any problem for your registration. You just wrote your first part marks in application form and go ahead for NET registration. O Level equivalent to matric you inset in SSC dialog box.
And if a candidate is repeating or giving complete A levels, both 1st and 2nd part together then?
Then in this condition if your result of improvement or repeating will issue than you enter those marks or grades if not than you apply on the base of previous marks. You repeating 1st and 2nd part then if you have result if 1st first which you have improved than you apply on the base of these marks otherwise you go ahead on previous marks.
Finally, if you would not apply the base of previous marks than you will wait for next admission of NUST announced on NOV/DEC.
Dear, Zafar I will answer your all question in NUST University Islamabd Comment.
thanks sir and i also want to ask that armed forces ma jo students ate ha un ka merit criteria different ha ya same ha??
This criteria is same for all student. However paying cadets merit will be separately calculated according to their number of seats.
sir my father is retired sailor from pak navy…so how can mention this in admissin form??
Paying cadet seat is only for the wards of Army Servant not the persons of Pak Navy. SO, it not necessary for you to mention this thing because there is no special reserved seats for the wards of Pak Navy. Otherwise you mention if your father is not currently do anyother job. If you mention or not than in both condition you fall under the criteria of Civilian seats in NUST for AMC.

If you want to apply for admission in AMC than wait for new admission for AMC which should be announced in the month of Nov/Dec NET-I from NUST. But these student should be for 2015 selection. But I suggest you that you apply for other best medical colleges in Punjab.

So, Finally AMC admission should be announced for 2015.

Don't be panic salma javed there are other best medical colleges in Punjab. If you really want to join pak army as doctor than after MBBS you would also apply for medical doctor in AMC. So, I suggest you don't waste you 1 year for admission in AMC because merit is too high and its not confirmed that you get admission in 2015 or not. So, without wasting time get admission in best public medical colleges in Punjab and after completing MBBS apply for Specialized doctor in Pak Army.

The chance should be increase if you get 160 marks. These marks will give you a hope that its chance for you to select in AMC. Apart from this let see where the merit is stand.
And one thing more,,does the admission go strictly on merit basis or is there any sort of "SIFARISH" working in AMC too??
AMC strictly select applicants on merit base there is not criteria of refrences in AMC for admission in MBBS.

Why tech giants like Google are investing in Montreal's artificial intelligence research lab
By Morgan LowrieThe Canadian Press
Mon., Nov. 21, 2016timer3 min. read
MONTREAL—Artificial intelligence, once relegated to the realm of science fiction, is now found in everything from translation services to virtual assistants to video games.
And as companies race to develop self-driving cars and offer increasingly personalized online experiences, they're building on research that was largely pioneered by a group of Canadian researchers who are still attracting plenty of attention and investment dollars.
Montreal, in particular, has developed a concentration of expertise in the area of AI, largely thanks to the efforts of Université de Montréal professor Yoshua Bengio, head of the Montreal Institute for Learning Algorithms (MILA).
"(AI) will affect pretty much every economic sector; right now is just the tip of the iceberg," Bengio told The Canadian Press.
"One of the things we are going to see more of is how these technologies affect how we interact with computers."
As a result of its research, Bengio says the institute has attracted interest from "most of the major IT companies," some of which have also provided funding.
Now, tech giant Google is jumping in, investing $4.5 million over three years to support the institute's research, as well as opening an AI research group at its Montreal office.
This comes on the heels of the Canadian government announcing an investment of more than $200 million in three Montreal universities — including Bengio's — to create a learning hub to explore artificial intelligence and big data.
Shibl Mourad, the head of engineering for Google's Montreal office, says the company hopes to help turn the city into a "super-cluster" of AI knowledge that will attract corporate investors, burgeoning startups and researchers.
He said much of the credit goes to Bengio and his colleagues, whose research over the last decade has put the city ahead of its competitors.
"Their contribution was foundational," he said.
Had these researchers not invested that decade of their lives, "we would not be where we are," Mourad said.
The lab Bengio leads is one of the largest in the world dedicated to studying Deep Learning, one of the underpinnings of AI.
Over the past decade, they learned that by layering several "neural networks" that mimic how the brain works, computer programs could "learn" to solve complex problems on their own instead of needing to be programmed step-by-step.
By analyzing a large number of examples, the program could eventually learn to identify patterns — such recognizing objects in photos or language patterns.
This fundamental research has led to breakthroughs in translation programs, personal assistance, "smart" cameras and self-driving cars, among others, Bengio says.
"At some point you'll just talk to computers and they'll understand what you want and what you need," he said. "It may take years, but we're clearly going in that direction."
Bengio says AI knowledge also has broad applications in the medical field, and could be used to help doctors read scans, research and diagnose conditions, or sift through the massive amount of information contained in the human genome.
In the short term, he's hoping the new investments will help Montreal "capitalize on its advance" by attracting corporations and startups to set up in the city — hopefully reversing the brain drain that has seen many of the brightest researchers leave to find employment elsewhere.
He says it's a hopeful sign that former Montrealer Hugo Larochelle will be returning to the city to head up Google's new research group.
"We'd like to see more of that, and we'd like to attract people who aren't Canadians to Montreal," he said.

I know the one thing I am most excited about is to hug the necks of the women I have seen in pictures for the last three years. When I throw a load of laundry into my fancy washing machine, roll my eyes at having to empty the dishwasher for the second time in one day, or I have to scrub my toilets.....these women come to mind. I am quickly humbled. All the things that make my life easier are not even in the realities of the One Thread women. I want to be in their day to day, hear about their dreams, and look them in the eyes to say "you are doing such a great job. I am proud to know you. I am not the same because of you."
There have been some women with us since the very beginning of One Thread. Since YOUR first yes as a donor these women have started in school to learn a skill they knew nothing of before. They finished school and earned their Seamstress Certificate. Then they moved on to working at the Boutique which YOU helped fund into existence! And now, because of YOU, they are launching our first ever Co-Op! They are working towards being full owners of this co-op slowly in the months to come. We want you to meet them!
Clarisse is 35 years old and the mother of 2 boys. Both boys are in our Young Scholars program. She was in our first group of women in May 2015. She not only cares for her family, but her mother and niece. Clarisse dreams of having her own boutique!
Dorcas is 19 years old and has also been with One Thread for 3 years. That means she started her education with us when she was 16. So young and yet so very driven. She lives at home and contributes to her family. Dorcas dreams of having her own boutique one day!

News from brothers in arms
Granite Bay family both loves and loathes instant calls, e-mails from Iraq
By Cynthia Hubert - chubert@sacbee.com
Published 12:00 am PST Monday, January 21, 2008
Joshua and Benjamin Soto work in one of the most dangerous places in the world.
Sometimes, when the brothers call from Iraq, their parents in Granite Bay are rattled by the sounds of bombs and gunshots. Sometimes, Mark and Teresa Soto hear terrifying stories of death and injuries and near-misses.
Satellite phones, cell phones, computers and the Internet have made communication between the home front and the war zone easier than ever. That is mostly a blessing but also a curse, especially for a family that recently sent two sons into battle.
"It's very different from World War II or Vietnam, when people would go months without hearing anything," said Teresa Soto. "I am so grateful we can talk to them. But it's true that at times you can get too much information. You hear things, and you feel their anxiety, and it makes you worry even more."
A 2004 survey by a United States Military Academy researcher found that about 25 percent of troops in Iraq called family or friends back home at least twice a week, and 10 percent phoned daily. Those numbers, the most recent available, probably have increased significantly in recent years because more troops now carry cell phones and prepaid phone cards, according to the military.
The relative ease of communications between troops and loved ones today "can both be helpful and anxiety-producing," said Barbara Romberg, a psychologist who founded Give an Hour, a national nonprofit group of mental health specialists who volunteer their time to military veterans and their families. "Even when parents are communicating with their sons and daughters, they can't be there for them. It's painful. It's stressful."
These days, Mark and Teresa Soto's emotions ride on calls from Joshua, 21, a rifleman in the Marines who is married with a young child, and Benjamin, 19, an Army sniper who signed up while still in high school. The brothers, who their parents said are each other's "best friends," deployed to different locations in Iraq late last year.
Joshua is "the quiet, reserved one," his mother said, cautious just like her. Benjamin is a "mini Mark," with a big personality and a large group of close friends. The brothers "played soldier" together as young boys, and their father coached both of them in football.
Their parents now live for the calls that come without notice, in the wee hours of the morning, in the middle of their business meetings, while they are grocery shopping – whenever the young men can grab a few minutes and an open line.
Often, the conversations last just long enough to cover the basics. How are you feeling? Are you staying warm? Did you get our package? Joshua and Benjamin are careful about disclosing details of their daily lives, both to protect military secrets and to protect their parents from worry. But Mark and Teresa Soto can read plenty from their voices.
"From the moment I open my eyes in the morning, I'm praying for my boys," Teresa Soto said. "It's the only way I can stay sane. As a mom, you give birth to your children, you raise them, you protect them. Then they choose to do something that you can't protect them from. If I don't hear from them for a week or so, I start to get very concerned."
More than a week without contact, and the determinedly upbeat Sotos, whose daughter Danielle is not in the military, start to scan news reports for casualties. They phone other military families for tidbits of information. They check Joshua's and Ben's MySpace pages to find out the last time they logged on.
"The first time Ben called after a week and a half of not hearing from him, I broke down at the sound of his voice," Teresa Soto said. "I couldn't help it."
Mark Soto is less emotional, but just as concerned. Borrowing from his mantra as a football coach at Granite Bay High School, he ends every discussion with his sons in the field with the same advice.
"I tell them, 'Keep your head on a swivel, because you never know what might hit you from the side,' " he said.
Neither Benjamin nor Joshua Soto had ever handled a gun until they entered the military, their parents said. Joshua, with a wife and a baby to support, signed on with the Marine Corps after high school. Benjamin, after a breakup with a girl, joined the Army when he was just 17.
Their parents were less than thrilled with their career choices.
"I tried to bribe them not to do it," Mark Soto said.
"I asked them, 'Don't you know how dangerous the world is?' " Teresa Soto recalled.
But both young men were determined to be in the military. When it looked like both might end up in Iraq, their mother threatened to file a petition requesting that they not be sent into combat at the same time in the same place. The boys protested, and won.
"They were adamant," Teresa Soto said. "They said they absolutely had to stay with their units."
The military has no figures on how many siblings are serving together in Iraq or other combat zones, and no policy prohibiting family members from doing so, Pentagon press officer Les Melnyk said.
Joshua and Benjamin Soto are stationed some 60 miles from each other in Iraq but have never crossed paths, and are unlikely to do so, their parents said. Benjamin is based north of Baghdad and travels with four other soldiers, scouting for insurgents under cover of darkness.
"There must be a God," Mark Soto quoted Benjamin recently in an electronic newsletter about his sons, because "I've been shot at so many times, and I can't believe I haven't been hit."
His brother is an infantryman stationed in Fallujah. Among other things, Joshua and other members of his unit hunt for hidden explosives.
Back home in Granite Bay, their parents wrap red, white and blue streamers and yellow ribbons around the trees in front of their house. In their living room, they display pictures of their sons in their military dress uniforms. Joshua Soto's wife, Alicia, and daughter, Kylee, now live with Mark and Teresa, which has helped them cope with the absence of their sons.
After his sons left, Mark Soto launched a newsletter offering updates about Joshua, Benjamin and other troops in the area who are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Soto distributes the newsletter to some 250 friends and relatives.
"It's basically my journal," Mark Soto said. "It's a way for me to get out my feelings, my frustrations, my worries," things that he sometimes is reluctant to discuss with his sons over the phone.
At Christmas, the newsletter described Mark and Teresa's efforts to collect gifts for the troops. With the help of other volunteers, they mailed out 75 boxes filled with socks, hand warmers, coffee, movies, games, playing cards and even letters from local kindergartners to men and women serving overseas.
"I don't want anyone to forget the sacrifices that these young people are making," Mark Soto said.
Benjamin's tour is supposed to last for 15 months; Joshua's for seven. But they could be in Iraq far longer, their parents acknowledged. When the Soto brothers finally come back home for good, their parents say, they are likely to be different young men than the ones who left.
"We try to stay positive, but we're not naive," Teresa Soto said. "The death and the fear and the danger, on a daily basis, is going to affect you. We know they will be changed when they come back. We are preparing for that," looking into programs that might help ease their transition.
In the meantime, the Sotos wait for their cell phones to ring with news from afar. A single call can lift their spirits, or send them into a bout of despair.
"I try not to obsess. If I do, I can't function," Teresa Soto said.
"We have to trust and believe that they will come home safe."

Laurens man fatally shot in struggle with Greenville County sheriff's deputy, sheriff says
Nikie Mayo Tamia Boyd
A man was killed late Wednesday afternoon after a struggle with at least one deputy from the Greenville County Sheriff's Office who was trying to serve an arrest warrant, Sheriff Hobart Lewis said.
The shooting occurred just after 5 p.m., as deputies working on a U.S. Marshals Service task force responded to a duplex on Montague Road to find a person who had at least one active warrant, according to Lt. Ryan Flood with the Sheriff's Office.
Earl Fitzgerald Hunter, 40, of Laurens, died at the scene and an autopsy will be performed Thursday, according to Greenville County Coroner Parks Evans.
Hunter was previously wanted by the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office in connection to a shooting that occurred in December. Deputies say Hunter attempted to kill his ex-girlfriend.
Related:Roebuck man wanted in connection to December shooting in Spartanburg County
The duplex is near Berea Middle School and not far from Furman University in what residents described as a normally peaceful neighborhood.
David Jones, who lives near where the shooting occurred, said neighbors were told to evacuate. He said what happened Wednesday was unusual.
"I've lived here all of my life," he said. "It's out of the ordinary. It's a quiet neighborhood."
In a news conference that was shown on social media, Lewis said Hunter hid and fought before he died.
While officers attempted to arrest Hunter, he presented a gun, according to a media release from the Greenville County Coroner's Office.
"After observing the suspect inside the duplex, an officer-involved shooting occurred," Flood said in a prepared, emailed statement. "The suspect, who was armed, was struck and pronounced deceased on scene."
No deputies were injured, he said.
The State Law Enforcement Division, South Carolina's top law enforcement agency, is investigating the shooting at the request of the Sheriff's Office.
SLED spokesman Tommy Crosby said his agency had been called to investigate the shooting. SLED is commonly called in to investigate shootings that involve South Carolina police officers or deputies.
The deputy or deputies involved in the shooting will be placed on paid administrative leave during the investigation, Flood said. Along with SLED, the Office of Professional Standards within the Sheriff's Office will also investigate the shooting, Flood said.
A critical incident community briefing video, which will give more information about what happened, will be made public by the Sheriff's Office on Aug. 7, Flood said.
Jatoni Foster, another neighbor, said he was shocked by what happened.
"This is a clean, quiet area — kids always walk to school here," Foster said. "With this happening it's like, 'Wow.'"
Wednesday's shooting is the third so far this year to involve the Greenville County Sheriff's Office, and the 21st shooting involving a law enforcement officer in South Carolina so far this year, according to statements from SLED.

Q: Exception in constructor while creating com object What exception should I throw if creating com object fails (in my own class instance constructor)? For example I want to create Excel.Application object. If it fails, I want to throw specific Exception with inner exception filled with COMException generated by Excel.Application constructor.

A: If you want to create your own class of exceptions you can, but you don't have to do that to wrap a new exception around an inner exception.
public class CustomException : Exception
{
}

public static void main()
{

    try
    {
       //Code that instantiates COM object.

    }
    catch(Exception ex)
    {
       throw new CustomException("This is my message.  I can put anything I want to, then pass the real exception as the inner exception", ex);
    }

}

Q: Odd Ruby If Statement Question I've noticed this little oddity(I think) in If Statements in Ruby. Here's an example:
my_number = nil
if my_number < 3
   'number is less than 3'
end

Obviously, when you run this code you'll get a "comparison of Fixnum with nil failed" error. Now here's something strange. If I make a little change in the If Statement to check for nil, it works fine. Example:
my_number = nil
if my_number && my_number < 3
   'number is less than 3'
end

Adding the check for nil makes it not crash. This may all sound stupid but I can't figure out why that works. Shouldn't it still throw an error?
Thanks to anyone who can explain this. :) Thanks!

A: Boolean expressions are evaluated in what is known as "short circuit" fashion. That is, as soon as it know the result, it doesn't keep trying to evaluate expressions.
So it does the if my_number and since that's false, there is no need to continue, because false && <anything> is always false.
This is a useful language feature, and many languages work like this (the original Visual Basic is one exception that I can think of) because it lets you do exactly this sort of test without requiring cumbersome nested 'if's.

A: This is no way specific to Ruby: I've noticed this behaviour in all languages I've ever used, from Pascal to Java.
If you have boolean expression b1 && b2 && b3 ... && bn, most languages guarantee that bi will be evaluated from left to right and if some bi turns out to be false, evaluation will be stopped. (because whole expression is false then).  Same for boolean || operator.

A: It has to be OK to test for nil, so if nil or something like it is OK in almost every language.
But for an arithmetic comparison, if it didn't throw an exception it would have to return true or false. Either way is problematic.
True kind of doesn't make sense, as nil would be both < and > than 3.
False is almost as bad, as now nil < 3 and nil >= 3 are both false, and that's not ideal.
So, the comparison method throws an exception. Problem solved.

A: nil is "falsy". Try this in irb:
irb(main):001:0> puts "Nil is true " if nil
=> nil
irb(main):002:0> puts "Nil is not true " if !nil
Nil is not true
=> nil

nil isn't the same as false, but making it act as such help a lot in loops and other tests:
false == nil
=> false

Since the first part of your and is false ruby does the lazy thing and doesn't even bother to evaluate the next bit, if it's > 3.

A: What's happening is called short-circuit evaluation.  You're statement can be thought of like this:
if( my_number )
  if( my_number < 3)
    'number is less than 3'
  end
end

Since the first condition is false there's no reason to evaluate the second condition of the statement -- the my_number < 3 part.

Jackson Pollock (1912-1956): The American painter, whose monumental drip paintings are among the most famous examples of abstract expressionism, met Alfonso Ossorio through gallerist Betty Parsons in 1949. In 1950 Pollock worked in Ossorio's studio while Ossorio was in the Philippines painting a mural for his family's chapel. It was at Pollock's suggestion that Ossorio traveled that same year to Paris to meet Jean Dubuffet (Pollock himself would never meet the French artist in person).
Alfonso Ossorio (1916-1990): Born in the Philippines to a Spanish father and Chinese-Filipino mother and heir to a vast sugar fortune, his generous artistic patronage (he collected hundreds of paintings by his friends Pollock and Dubuffet) has come to obscure his own remarkable achievements as an artist.
Jean Dubuffet (1901-1985): The French painter and sculptor embraced the aesthetic of so-called "outsider art" imbuing his own work with what he perceived as its raw directness. He amassed an extensive collection of art brut, which Ossorio exhibited at his East Hampton estate from 1952 to 1961.
