Newark, New Jersey has become the first city in the country to officially approve a controversial plan that uses eminent domain to fight foreclosures and neighborhood blight.
Newark's new mayor, Ras Baraka, introduced the resolution and the Newark Municipal Council, which passed it unanimously, according to a press release issued today by New Jersey Communities United (unitednj.org), which describes itself as a progressive grassroots community organization committed to building power for low and moderate income people, predominantly in Newark.
The program would allow homeowners trapped in certain type of mortgage, known as a Private Label Security or PLS Loans, to voluntarily participate in a program where the City purchases these mortgages from investors and repackages them at terms homeowners can afford. For most of the estimated 1,200 homeowners with these types of loans in Newark, the policy would save them from losing their homes to foreclosure.
The release also points out that according to a recent report published by the Haas Institute at the University of California, Berkeley titled: "Underwater America: How the So-Called Housing Recovery is Bypassing Many Communities," New Jersey is at or near the top of the list of states hardest hit by the foreclosure crisis.
The study found that New Jersey cities, Newark, Elizabeth and Paterson are ranked second, third and fourth in the country for the percentage of homes with "underwater mortgages," the term used when homeowners owe more than the value of their properties.
Underwater mortgages lead to foreclosure because when homeowners are hit with a life event, such as divorce, illness, injury or job loss, they can't sell their homes or borrow against them to get through the rough patch. If that happens and the bank won't modify, it's a foreclosure. New Jersey's high percentage of underwater mortgages means, "there are thousands of homes at the brink of foreclosure," the release explains.
Let's face it… that sort of thinking has resulted in almost 8 million homes lost to foreclosure since 2008, and cities in New Jersey like Newark, and in California like Richmond, are clearly tired of waiting for some imagined turnaround in the housing market that has failed to materialize for six years while they've watched their communities continue to pay the price of inaction by the holders of these mortgages.
So today, I would have to say that Newark is to be commended for having the courage to draw the line and take control of their city's destiny by becoming the first American city to say yes to the use of eminent domain as a way to deal with underwater loans and urban blight caused by the ongoing foreclosure crisis. But in addition, since there are reportedly some 26 other cities across the country that have been considering the plan, I would also have to imagine that Newark only represents the first domino to fall, in what could potentially become a long line of dominoes.
And I suppose that's really why the banking industry lobbyists have tried so hard to scare cities away from the use of eminent domain… they simply don't want to cede control… I understand.
But, at this point cities like Newark have endured six years of a housing market's collapse, and they still have thousands of homes underwater by 50 percent and more. What would you do if you were mayor of such a city… if you pledged an oath to protect that city… what else could you do.
ONE MORE THING: The opposition will no doubt say that investors will lose money as a result of using eminent domain in this instance, but that's just not true. Investors must receive "fair market value" for the properties being seized by the city, which is more than they'd be able to get were they to foreclose. In fact, in New Jersey, where it takes something like 1,000 days to foreclose, the investors would be lucky to net half the home's fair market value by foreclosing.
During the 1930s, we lost 50 percent of the homes in the country to foreclosure, and by the middle of that decade, states started passing moratoria that banned foreclosures for five years. Of course, that's the worst possible answer to the problem, because it encourages more to default, and it only puts off the problem.
So, investors… look at it that way… would you rather see eminent domain used and receive fair market value, or see a five-year prohibition on all foreclosures? Because that's your real choice… the city of Newark is saying that the status quo is simply not an option.
Stand by, lots more to come. You might even think of this as being the shot heard round the world.

Statement on Recent Events
Wednesday, 6 July, 2022
I am very sorry to see talented ministers leave office as they have contributed so much.
I am fully aware that the Prime Minister and the Government - of which I am part - need to work hard to earn back the confidence of the British public. We will do this by focussing on the priorities of the people who elected us, including tackling the cost of living, levelling up opportunities, and working internationally to restore global stability following the shocks of the pandemic and invasion of Ukraine.
I have a responsibility to serve my constituents to the best of my abilities, while also in my ministerial role helping the sectors I oversee, such as tourism and sport as they recover from the pandemic. I am focussed on delivering major international sporting events including the Women's EUROs which start today, and the Commonwealth Games which start in just 22 days time.

Q: XSLT: when test condition for a child node with a certain name How can I write a test condition in XSLT which says "if any of the child nodes of the current node's child has local-name() = 'abc'"?
For example if the current node has a node named test inside it and test may contain a node named abc
I tried writing test="local-name(test/child::*) = 'abc'" but it obviously didn't work.
Thnx in advance!!

A: local-name(test/*) will check the name of only the first child element of the (first) test, if you want to check them all then you need to use a predicate:
<xsl:when test="test/*[local-name() = 'abc']">

but the simpler
<xsl:when test="test/abc">

may be enough if you don't need to cater for the possibility of unknown namespaces.

Brancepeth Castle is a castle in the village of Brancepeth in County Durham, England, some 5 miles south-west of the city of Durham (grid reference NZ223377 ). It is a Grade I listed building. [1]
A succession of buildings has been on the site. The first was a Norman castle built by the Bulmers, which was rebuilt by the Nevilles in the late 14th century. [1] For many years the castle was owned by the Neville family until in 1569 it was confiscated by the Crown following the family's involvement in the Rising of the North. [2]
Engraving of Brancepeth Castle in 1782, before its 19th-century expansion
West side of the castle. The 19th-century addition to an older section of the castle can be seen below the left turret. In the foreground is Japanese knotweed.
There have been a number of other owners since that time. [2] In the early 17th century, the estate was granted by the Crown to Robert Carr, 1st Earl of Somerset, from whom it subsequently confiscated the castle back due to his involvement in a poisoning scandal. [3] In 1636, three men who had bought the castle from the King's Commissioners in 1633 sold it to Ralph Cole of Newcastle. [3] His grandson, Sir Ralph Cole, 2nd Baronet, sold the property on 9 April 1701 [4] to Sir Henry Belaysyse, [3] [5] whose daughter was involved with Bobby Shafto and who was said to have inspired the famous song. [3]
In 1796 the castle was acquired by William Russell (1734–1818) of Newbottle near Sunderland, a wealthy banker and mine owner [6] His son Matthew Russell (1765–1822), Member of Parliament for Saltash in 1818, in the 1820s spent lavishly on the Castle's reconstruction. [6] The present building is largely his work, to the designs of the architect John Paterson, and then improved in the mid-19th century by Anthony Salvin [1] for William Russell, High Sheriff of Durham in 1841.
During World War I the castle was used as a hospital by convalescents from Newcastle General Hospital. [3] In 1939 it became the regimental headquarters for the Durham Light Infantry, who erected a military camp of over 100 huts to the south of the village during the Second World War. [3] The Durham Light Infantry left the Castle in 1962. [7]
The castle is now owned by the Dobson family. Margaret Dobson, wife of publisher Dennis Dobson, bought the castle in 1978 to store the company's stock of books when the lease on its Notting Hill premises expired. [8] Her husband died that year.
Margaret Dobson restored the fabric and interior of the building, including the lead roof, which had been stripped by an earlier tenant. She refurbished function rooms, for use as a venue for auctions and twice-yearly craft fairs. Shakespearean plays were staged in the main courtyard, and rooms were rented. [8] Margaret Dobson died aged 86 on 19 October 2014, leaving four sons, three daughters and 11 grandchildren. [8] [9] Original French political posters from 1968 found in the cellar of the castle featured in the BBC programme Inside Out North East & Cumbria in February 2019. [10]

Amalie Rothschild
Painter, sculptor and printmaker
Amalie Rothschild (1916-2001) was a painter, sculptor and printmaker who lived and worked her entire life in Baltimore, Maryland and made enormous contributions to the cultural and artistic environment of the city and local area. She is best known as an abstract, geometric painter and sculptor working in materials including plexiglas, aluminum, bronze, bark, handmade cast paper, and particle board, as well as oil and acrylic, watercolor and drawing. Her work, despite its abstract geometric appearance, was frequently self-referential and often dealt with the issues of balancing the duties of wife and mother with the strivings of the artist, while at the same time paying homage to historical themes. During the 1960s Rothschild broke out from her often hard-edged geometric paintings into sculpture and created more than 325 works, from large outdoor and sometimes monumental pieces, to elegant, table-top scale spatial explorations of balance that explored the contrast between the solid and the void, to linear pieces that have been described as "drawing in space." Beginning in the feminist 1970's Amalie Rothschild created her most innovative work, a series she referred to as Vestments. Constructed of sculptural materials, including aluminum and translucent plexiglas which simulate colorful evocations of stained glass, as well as cord and handmade chain links, the non-wearable forms are designed to hang and be seen from front and back, more in the manner of textiles than sculptures. In addition, throughout her life she drew almost every day, creating hundreds of works on paper. When she died she left a vast oeuvre comprising approximately 1400 fully realized works in all media, some 270 of which are in private collections and museums.

Anda Vance. Storage Ideas. March 18th , 2019.
It is necessary to teach your kid some simple etiquette rules when it has to do with cleanliness and organizing their toys, and the storage solutions mentioned previously will definitely help you do that! Kids are basically always throughout the place, and so are their toys. The same as with the carts, you might get your children to categorize their toys before separating them in various buckets.
The youngster's room is a location where your son or daughter will enjoy and have the chance to fully develop its capacities. In a little room, space is at a premium, so you've got to use every square inch. Another awesome Lego station if you've got the space. The space is simply too tiny. Luckily, the team at Toy Storage has eliminated a lot of the hassle that's commonly related to move-in moment.
The boxes are made in a sturdy and spacious way in order to do not need to bother what you store inside them. The wooden storage box supplies you a good means of storing things apart from toys also. Encourage children to play in a room where you could see them. There's a whole lot of storage room and my daughter adores it as well.
Our buildings aren't just for storage. Quite a few of our buildings arrive with three different roof choices and a lot of different available colours, which can make matching the building to your house much simpler. The buildings are constructed on site and will enable you to customize many of the features including the windows and doors of the building.


As we get ready to celebrate the 2017 Scotiabank Giller Prize winner, I am reading my way through the short-list including: Son of a Trickster (Eden Robinson, who I had the privilege to meet at a Laurier event in February), Transit (Rachel Cusk), Bellevue Square (Michael Redhill, who I met in September and a blog post is pending), Minds of Winter (Ed O'Loughlin) and I am a Truck (Michelle Winters).
I am a Truck is a very quick read. I would actually suggest planning your reading so that you can read it all in one sitting. I spread my reading out and feel that the disjointed reading impacted the overall impact of the book, leaving me to feel that I should reread it to feel it's complete impact.
As Agathe prepares a surprise to celebrate her 20th wedding anniversary to Rejean, his beloved truck is found empty, with the door open, on the side of the highway. Rejean is missing, without a trace. The couple had lived an insulated life, speaking in French and living off the beaten path, spending their time isolated from the English speaking community. Rejean liked things a certain way and Agathe seemed to go along with this.
With Rejean's disappearance, Agathe's life opens up. She mourns his loss by smelling his flannel shirts but meets a new friend, finds a job, learns to drive and starts to enjoy rock and roll. She meets Martin, the salesperson who had sold Rejean the truck and through this character we learn more about Rejean who also mourns the loss of his friend.
This is a unique book, it makes the reader ponder… in fact, I am still pondering and think a second read might help. I enjoyed the mix of English and French and needed to translate a few words as I read. It is a book that will spur great conversations at book clubs as readers consider the oddity of each of the characters as they learn more about the disappearance of Rejean.
It is written by Michelle Winters, a writer, painter and translator. She is originally from New Brunswick but living in Toronto. I look forward to meeting her at the Between the Pages event at the Koerner Hall, in Toronto, November 6th.

This is the only one I haven't read yet. I keep hearing that it's unique, which I usually love, so I'm looking forward to it!
I liked Minds of Winter, but don't expect it to be a fast read!

Q: How to prove $A(A^TA)^{-1}A^T$ is a singular matrix Is there a way to prove that statement? Lets say A is a $n\times p$ matrix.
I read from my text book that this matrix is a projection matrix of rank p.
Have no idea what that means, and no luck searching for understandable literature.
Hope you guys can lend me a hand.
Thanks.

A: If $p<n$, $A(A^TA)^{-1}A^T \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$, but $$\operatorname{rank}(A(A^TA)^{-1}A) \le \min(\operatorname{rank}(A(A^TA)^{-1}), \operatorname{rank}(A))\le p<n$$
Hence, it is singular.
However, if $p=n$, the statement is not necessarily true. For example, let $A=I$.

Q: Plots, by Label, frequency of words I need to create separates plot based on a label. My dataset is
    Label   Word    Frequency
439 10.0    glass   600
471 10.0    tv      34
463 10.0    screen  31
437 10.0    laptop  15
454 10.0    info    15
65  -1.0    dog 1
68  -1.0    cat 1
69  -1.0    win 1
70  -2.0    man 1
71  -2.0    woman   1

In this case I would expect three plots, one for 10, one for -1 and one for -2, with on the x axis Word column and on the y-axis the Frequency (it is already sorted in descending order by Label).
I have tried as follows:
df['Word'].hist(by=df['Label'])

But it seems to be wrong as the output is far away from the expected one.
Any help would be great

A: You don't want to be using a histogram here: a histogram plot is where the columns of your dataframe contain raw data, and the hist function buckets the raw values and finds the frequencies of each bucket, and then plots.
Your dataframe is already bucketed, with a column in which the frequencies have already been calculated; what you need is the df.plot.bar() method. Unfortunately, this is quite new, and does not yet allow a by parameter, so you have to deal with the subplots manually.
Full walkthrough code for the cut-down example you have provided follows. Obviously you can make it more generic by not hardcoding the number of subplots required in the line marked [1].
# Set up:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import io
txt = """Label,Word,Frequency
10.0,glass,600
10.0,tv,34
10.0,screen,31
10.0,laptop,15
10.0,info,15
-1.0,dog,1
-1.0,cat,1
-1.0,win,1
-2.0,man,1
-2.0,woman,1"""
dfA = pd.read_csv((io.StringIO(txt)))

labels = dfA["Label"].unique()

# Set up subplots on which to plot.
# Make more generic by not hardcoding nrows and ncols in [1],
# but calculating them depending on how many labels you have.
fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=2, ncols=2) # [1]
ax_list = axes.flatten() # axes is a list of lists;
                         # ax_list is a simple list which is easier to index.

# Loop through labels and plot the bar chart to the corresponding axis object.
for i in range(len(labels)):
  dfA[dfA["Label"]==labels[i]].plot.bar(x="Word", y="Frequency", ax=ax_list[i])

Funny how that particular jingle should spring to mind, with its dark double message: hey women, now that you're so liberated, you too can smoke all you want and die of lung cancer, just like men!
When Mitt said it—it being, "I went to a number of women's groups and said, can you help us find folks? And they brought us whole binders full of — of women"—you could feel a collective squirm go through the Columbia City Theater, where I was watching the debate with friends. The squirm was followed by a collective head-scratch: did he really just say that? We all murmured. What century is this?
You could argue that Mitt "meant well." But what does it mean, to "mean well?" In this case, "meaning well" meant wanting to appear to be someone other than who he is: a guy, surrounded by guys, who—as the Boston Phoenix newspaper reminded us, contrary to the way he tried to phrase it in the debate—did not actually notice the paucity of women in his gubernatorial administration until a coalition of Massachusetts women's groups brought it to his attention. They offered the binders not in the sort of distasteful, mail-order bride way it sounded coming from the candidate, but in a proactive, let us educate you kind of way: as in, we want to introduce you to some incredibly qualified candidates for state office who have mysteriously been overlooked.
But then Mitt made it worse, by talking about how he generously allows his chief of staff to go home to her family at night: as if only mothers, not fathers, would want or need such an allowance. As if: you've come a long way, baby—but hiring you is still way different than hiring a man.
It all felt so… Ron and Nancy. So George and Laura. So Tarzan and Jane. It kind of made me want to sneak a cigarette.
But only for an instant. Because that whole notion—that to succeed as a woman, you have to make it on your merits into a special binder, rather than, say, play racquetball with the right people—that's exactly the kind of stress that made women want to smoke back in the Virginia Slims day. It's the double standard we restless nesters want to believe will not be the working-world norm for our daughters. And so when Mitt brings it up, like it was a good thing—hey, we were an all-guy team but then I asked for the binders full of women, wasn't that great!—it made us all squirm because it sounded like the kind of thing you'd expect, maybe, a 75 or 85 year old man to say. Not a 65 year old aging Boomer, who is running for president in a century that is supposed to be new. But then again, this is a candidate who did not support the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. Which places him pretty firmly in the company of men who have NOT come a long way, and don't plan to anytime soon.
Readers: October has been a busy month here in the Restless Nest. This week, I re-broadcast a radio piece on one of my favorite subjects: breakfast.
"So, how's the Empty Nest going for you?" the Other Mom asked me when we ran into each other in the park. Our children were the same ages: 18 and 21. The younger ones recently graduated from the same high school.
The implication being, of course, that our son was not: that it was his sorry lack of self-sufficiency that got my husband and me out of bed every morning.
But that wasn't it at all, I wanted to explain, but didn't.
I wanted to be there every day, just to say "Good-bye! Have a great day!" as Nick ran out the door. I wanted to know he had breakfast in his stomach and a sack lunch in his backpack. I knew he didn't "need" us to get up. He probably didn't even "want" us to get up. But isn't one of the enduring themes of the teenage years that secret feeling that no one really cares? And when you're having one of those dark adolescent moments, might it not help to be able to say to yourself, At least my parents get up every morning and pop my toast in for me? At least they say good-bye when I leave the house?
But I didn't say any of that to the Other Mom. Especially since she was the same Other Mom who, the first time we ever chatted, scolded me for putting my daughter in an "elitist" gifted program, the same program she put her own daughter in a few years later.
Parents can be so judgmental. Myself included. In Seattle, we judge each other for, among other things, not offering the most perfectly healthy snacks or allowing violent video games or too much TV. Or any TV at all. But one of the wisest, most non-judgmental moms I know once told me, when Nick was still in middle school, that she would continue to make peanut butter toast in the mornings and pack sack lunches until her tall teenaged boys absolutely forbade it, because to be able to send them out into the day with good food gave her such comfort: the comfort of knowing that, whatever else might happen to them that morning or afternoon, breakfast and lunch were covered.
I can do that for Nick, I thought at the time. I will do that.
Her twin boys are 21 now, seniors in college, living off campus, cooking and eating with impressive self-sufficiency.
I don't miss smearing peanut butter and jam on bread, bagging carrots, rummaging in the cupboards for trail mix or cookies. I do miss knowing that Nick has a brown bag full of healthy food in this pack, food he can "eat standing up," his one specific lunch-packing request.
I don't miss having to get up at 6:30.
I do miss the two-second, patiently tolerated goodbye kiss. That I do miss.
When was the last time you had an important decision to make? Did you call upon undecided people for help?

The task analysis performance is where comprehensive overview is captured with basic knowledge of what is the task and what are the underlying problems, the cause and expectations. Thus this task analysis starts the definition of the project area. Therefore, the most proper way to start analysing the task is to begin with an approach towards problem identification. There are many different ways to identify the problem, but the three main aspects should be considered.  First of all, it should matter to any project manager to avoid the possibility to be blind-sided. Sometimes, simply they misinterpret or do not pay enough attention to warnings which evolves over time until it is too late to respond properly. A second most common mistake in problem identification is lack of recognition of how significant the issue is. That leads to not sufficient enough allocation of resources in order to solve it. The last, but not the least common error is overreaction. There is a need of accurate identification of possible crisis existence and thorough evaluation of situation. It means that sometimes people overreact in some situations and they assume to soon that it is a problem. So to avoid that it is recommended to evaluate situation and find out is it a real crisis or just a warning.
Who knows? - about the situation and who has the relevant information.
Who cares? - about solving this problem.
Who can? - contribute and have competence solving this kind of problem.
In the end of the task analysis it should be clear what are capabilities of the task and in which environment it will be managed and also what will be the content and objectives of an analysis. In addition, within the procedure it is crucial to set up motivational aspects and reasonable mindset of carrying out any specific project.
In addition, there also can be excluded two more areas. The first one would be the area of effect where the effect of the solution could be expected and the second one would be the area of solution itself which defines more specifically part of intervention system that is directly used for the implementation of the solution. How big the system demarcation model will be mostly depends the scope of the task and clients vision, that is why it is recommended to demarcate the system with his participation. But the most important aspect is that relevant areas in the environment and the way they might influence the project must be identified. So it is always better at the beginning to try to design demarcation system as wide as possible in case to avoid the possibility to restrict the possible outcome of solutions. Later within the procedure and step by step evaluation the system narrows down to a more specific and critical area.
The black box perception is "the way scientific and technical work is made invisible by its own success. When a machine runs efficiently, when a matter of fact is settled, one need focus only on its inputs and outputs and not on its internal complexity."  The same insight can be used in project management when it is suitable to simplify the structure of the system, but still the elements and their affiliations are still open. In this way the input and output in solving the problem does not change, but the overall complexity is significantly reduced.
When analysing the system it is a good practice to look at it from a different point of view. Thus, more outcomes can be accumulated and a combination of these would create more detailed and flexible overall picture. In this way even the same elements of the system can acquire different aspects when seen from a different angle. Therefore, such techniques as "Six Thinking Hats"  are used to look at decisions from a number of important perspectives.
This simply creates a step by step detailing of the system. Initially it can be started with previously mentioned Black Box from which gradually increases the level of detail and information provision. This helps to identify and manoeuvre more easily between the relations of different elements.
Further step in the analysis of the current state follows the consideration and evaluation of the interaction between current system and its environment. This gives a better perception of the whole structure, functions of each part and relations in between. Analysis of the system and the relevant areas of the environment is performed based on gathering the necessary data through comprehensive surveys and interviews, observations and research. All this is based on the previously composed demarcation system. The importance of this step should not be underestimated, because this is the point where crucial information is collected. Interviews should be smooth and to the point, in order not to loose the context of the problem and avoid stacking up with unnecessary data. The way of observation brings problem solver closer to the actual point of investigation what helps him to understand the situation by being involved and taking part in it. The other option is to make a research by collecting internal or external data. There are plenty of sources for data extraction starting with project reports and databases and finishing with available public information on the internet.
Strengths - Internal factors that are favorable for achieving organization's objective.
Weaknesses - Internal factors that are unfavorable for achieving organization's objective.
In order to perform evaluation of strengths and weaknesses of the current state requires a deep knowledge about what are circumstances and processes. It involves specifying the objective of the project and identifying the internal and external factors that are favourable or not to achieve that objective. Strengths and weaknesses can be identified within project's vision, mission and strategy. Here problem solver must be able to recognize the strong aspects of the project that would be a strong base for the future development and at the same time be aware of weaknesses that must be reduced or disarmed in order not to harm the project. As a result, identification of strengths and weaknesses supplement an understanding of the current state. At this point it could be visible how risky or how fortunate the project will be.
The root cause analysis sums up the analysis of the current state. It helps to identify the circumstances that resulted in the nature, the magnitude of it, the location and time of consequences of one or more events. With this knowledge is possible to identify what is supposed to be done or changed, what actions should be taken in order to prevent recurrence of similar harmful outcomes. One of the most common techniques used for the root cause analysis is "5 WHY". It simply states that when a problem occurs just ask why it occurred. Asking the question "why" sufficiently enough times brings at the systemic cause of the problem. The results of the root cause analysis could be presented together with the strengths and weaknesses. Thus, both analysis supplement each other.
Considering future state analysis it consists of prediction of environment behaviour and impact of this behaviour on the system. This is all more about trying to foresee the possible trends of the system and what actually it could bring in the future. Here should be deliberated all possible scenarios and developments of key factors. The careful evaluation of future developments and their impact on the current or future system is considered. It is important to mention that all this is still performed based on the system demarcation. Several methods are used for it and extrapolation of data is expected. Crucial point here would be prediction of the impact of the behaviour on the system which would include identification of opportunities and threats of problem solving. And finally, one of the last steps would be the systematic evaluation of the analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. To do this SWOT analysis is used. The interaction between those four properties is under the loop at this point.
This part of future analysis is quite complicated and sometimes only relies on the planners assumptions, based on individual experience or historical data. But nevertheless there are several methods which can help in forecasting and predicting the future behaviour. First would be the survey method. In this case collection of information from past or present facts is conducted. Additionally, stakeholders' visions and opinions, knowledge are considered.
Second method would be the Scenario writing. Where thoughts about possible future development and the consequences of it are described. At this point is important to think about several alternative solutions and to be aware of best and worst case scenarios.
Third one would be Delphi method. Where the group of experts are asked to answer questionnaires in two or more rounds. After each round a summary of the experts' opinions by the third person is provided. After that experts revise their earlier answers. Following this iteration the range of answers decreases and in the end it suppose to converge to the only and correct answer. Thus the mean or median results are used for solutions.
And the fourth method would be the Extrapolation of time series. In this case, time function is used in order to predict the desirable parameter. The data for extrapolating trends is taken only from desirable parameter and assumptions are based on the past developments. Then those assumptions are projected to the future according simple extrapolation method. So basically this kind of assumption is delivered from the historical data analysis of similar processes and expected the analogous outcome.
Analysis of opportunities and threats gives the perception of the changing environment and the possible impact of results. To be concise it is necessary to define what exactly is meant by the terms opportunities and threats.
Opportunities - External factors that are favorable for achieving organization's objective.
Threats - External factors that are unfavorable for achieving organization's objective.
Having in mind what opportunities and threats has the system helps more accurately plan further problem solving cycle and having identified fields avoid complications, but utilize this knowledge and transform into success. To make this analysis more easier to use it could be supplemented with appropriate causes and possible actions. Then at one place you have all possible ways where the problem solving could lead.
One of the last phase of situation analysis in problem solving cycle is SWOT analysis. It provides comprehensive evaluation of results and clear view of present and future perspectives. Using SWOT matrix the strengths and weaknesses together with opportunities and threats are listed and thorough interaction of individual strengths and weaknesses with the opportunities and threats can be examined. It presents visual picture, where strengths could provide opportunities and diminish the possible threats and on the other hand repairing weaknesses could lead to minimizing threats possibility and in some way use opportunities.
Using the SWOT analysis puts every aspect of the problem in more structured and systematic way where the areas of actions are identified. This is a popular and versatile tool, but a lot of subjective decisions are involved at each step. Therefore SWOT analysis should be used more as a guide rather than as a strict prescription and should be kept in mind that it is an iterative process.
It should be ensured that an appropriate information is collected and provided for the further steps of problem solving cycle. The continuation should progress without overload of the information. As a final verification of situation analysis a short check-list could be used that would include fact that the problem is understood and needed actions are determined, that the objectives are defined and that the concepts synthesis with the first possible solutions could be started.

NIH Rare Diseases : 53 Migraine with brainstem aura (MBA) is a type of migraine headache with aura that is associated with pain at the back of the head on both sides. An aura is a group of symptoms that generally serve as a warning sign that a bad headache is coming. Auras may consist of dizziness and vertigo, slurred speech, ataxia, tinnitus, visual changes, and/or loss of balance. Although MBA can occur in men and women of all ages, they are most common in adolescent girls. The exact underlying cause of MBA is poorly understood. Migraines are likely complex disorders that are influenced by multiple genes, in combination with lifestyle and environmental factors. In rare cases, susceptibility to MBA may be caused by a change (mutation) in the ATP1A2 gene or CACNA1A gene. Treatment during an episode may include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and antiemetic medications to help ease the symptoms.
MalaCards based summary : Migraine with Brainstem Aura, also known as basilar-type migraine, is related to migraine, familial hemiplegic, 2 and kleine-levin hibernation syndrome. An important gene associated with Migraine with Brainstem Aura is ATP1A2 (ATPase Na+/K+ Transporting Subunit Alpha 2). The drugs Topiramate and Neuroprotective Agents have been mentioned in the context of this disorder.

Le BRP Gregorio Velasquez (AGR 702) (anciennement RV Melville et construit à l'origine sous le nom de USNS Melville (T-AGOR-14) pour l'US Navy) était un navire océanographique exploité par l'Institut d'océanographie Scripps à des fins de recherche océanographique En tant que RV Melville, il s'agissait du plus ancien navire actif de la flotte de recherche universitaire, connu sous le nom de University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS). Le , le gouvernement américain a confirmé que le Melville serait transféré à la Marine philippine en tant qu'articles excédentaires de défense. Le navire a été officiellement transféré aux Philippines le  et mis en service actif à la même date.

Construction
Le deuxième navire ainsi nommé par la marine, Melville (AGOR 14), a été construit le  par la  de Bay City (Michigan), lancé le . Il était parrainé par Marguerite "Peg" Kletchka Cederberg, épouse du membre du Congrès Elford Cederberg. Il a été achevé et livré à l'US Navy le , pour être attribué au service du Military Sealift Command sous le nom de USNS Melville (T-AGOR 14) affrété pour l'Institut d'océanographie Scripps.

Bien que souvent classé comme navire de recherche océanographique de classe Robert D. Conrad, le navire a une apparence, une conception et une taille totalement différentes, à l'apparence générale, à la configuration et, plus distinctement, à des systèmes de propulsion et à des capacités complètement différentes. Le système original du RV Melville était un système cycloïdal à propulsion modifié plus tard en un système avancé de moteurs électriques diesel jumeaux de 1.385 cv avec un propulseur azimutal rétractable de 900 cv permettant au navire de se déplacer à 360° sous les moteurs principaux, tandis que celui de Classe Conrad était à simple vis diesel-électrique avec propulseur d'étrave rétractable.

Le navire jumeau du RV Melville est le RV Knorr, plus connu pour être le navire qui a localisé l'épave du Titanic en 1985, qui avait également été lancé en 1968. Le RV Melville a été nommé en l'honneur de George W. Melville, explorateur pionnier de l'Arctique et contre-amiral de la marine américaine.

Un équipage de 23 personnes maintient le navire opérationnel et jusqu'à 38 scientifiques peuvent être accueillis aux fins de l'expédition scientifique.

Historique opérationnel
Au cours d'une carrière qui en est maintenant à sa quatrième décennie, le RV Melville a sillonné presque tous les océans du monde à la recherche de connaissances scientifiques. Modernisé au début des années 1990, sa coque a été allongée, ce qui a porté son déplacement à  (à pleine charge) et un nouveau système de propulsion a été installé.

Rôle dans le film King Kong de 1976
Il a été utilisé dans le film King Kong de 1976, avec Jessica Lange et Jeff Bridges. Il était utilisé spécifiquement en raison de son entraînement de propulsion hypoïde (à cette époque), qui lui permettait de se déplacer latéralement. Ce type d'entraînement est utilisé, sur les navires de recherche, pour rester à la mer dans les sites de forage et de carottage.

Transfert dans la marine philippine
Le , la Maison-Blanche a confirmé que le RV Melville et l' seraient transférés à la marine philippine en tant qu'articles excédentaires. Le , le navire a été officiellement transféré à la marine philippine lors d'une cérémonie à San Diego, en Californie . Le navire a été renommé BRP Gregorio Velasquez , d'après un scientifique national des Philippines, et s'est vu attribuer le numéro de fanion AGR-702. Le navire devrait fournir à la marine philippine des capacités de levé hydrographique et de recherche maritime.

What Living as an Expat in Japan is Really Like
November 1, 2019 By Ashley Fleckenstein
Welcome back to Living Abroad, a series that shows you what it's like to live as an expat in cities around the world. Today, we're chatting with Rika, a Canadian English teacher who just spent three years living in Japan.
Here, Rika discusses the pros and cons of living in Japan, from the delicious food to the stigma of living as a foreigner in Japan. I've followed Rika for years (way back when she lived in Honduras!) so I'm very excited to share this interview today.
Quick facts about living in Japan:
Currency: ¥ Japanese Yen (JPY)
Level of crime in Japan: Very Low
Cost of living in Japan: Moderate
Quality of life in Japan: Very High
The pros and cons of living in Japan:
Pros: extremely safe, delicious cheap food, great public transportation
Cons: a very high language barrier, technology is still in 1995, lack of AC in summer
The expat community in Japan:
Size of the expat community in Japan: 2.6 million foreign residents in 2018 (source)
Most common expat nationalities: Chinese, Vietnamese, and South Korean. Eight out of the top 10 home countries of foreign residents are other Asian countries! Brazil is #5 and the USA is #8. (source)
Rika's background:
Hi! I'm Rika and I'm originally from Canada. I work as an ALT (Assistant Language Teacher) in Japan, and I've lived here since August 2016. My town is called Naruto (yes, like the anime) and is on the island of Shikoku, the smallest of the four main islands that make up Japan.
I came to Japan on the JET Programme, which is a program that brings native English speakers from around the world to Japan. Our job is to assist Japanese teachers with their English lessons in the public school system. That's a bit of a fancy way to say that I'm mostly a human tape recorder and a dancing English monkey for most of my workday.
On the weather in Japan: Japan is a country that runs almost north to south, from the northernmost tip being up by Russia and the southernmost tip being down near Taiwan. This means the country experiences a wide variety of weather. In my area – I'm in south-central(ish) Japan – we do get the extreme Japanese summer, with temperatures of 40°C (104°F) for months on end with 90-100% humidity. But our spring, fall, and winters are all very mild. It rarely snows for more than a day each year where I live, and as a Canadian I'm very, very happy about that.
On Japan's famous seasons: The seasons here are distinct and lovely. Spring brings cherry blossoms, fall brings brilliant red leaves, summer brings hydrangeas and lush greenery, and winter is a time to rest and reset. Japanese people will proudly tell you that "Japan has four seasons" like no other country in the world has that. (It's so prevalent that it often makes its way into Japan memes.) I now understand what they mean… they have four seasons AND each season is celebrated to the max, with special foods, festivals, and rituals for each season. Nobody enjoys a season the way Japanese people do!
On learning Japanese: Japanese is an easy language to learn the bare-bones basics of. But after that, you quickly realize there is a steep learning curve.
I feel quite comfortable with spoken Japanese – I can get my point across and I understand what people are saying to me. But written Japanese is difficult. They use three different writing systems (all mixed into the same sentence) and one of them is Chinese characters, of which there are literally thousands and many look alike.
Japanese people are generally very shy about speaking English, so if you try to speak Japanese to them they will often be relieved and jump right into it with you. However, many of them have had limited interaction in Japanese with non-native speakers, so they are not used to slowing down or enunciating their speech. Learning how to say "slowly, please" was a great first step for me! ("Yukkuri de, onegashimasu!")
On the level of English in Japan: Overall, I'd say about 98% of people where I live do not speak English beyond "Hello" and "What's your name?". I live in what's considered to be a very "countryside" prefecture, in a small town (by Japanese standards – there are 60,000 people here). There is very little interest or motivation for people here to learn English.
There's also little to no tourism from English-speaking countries, and people here generally do not need it for work or to go about their day to day lives. For example, there's no English at the local bank for forms and apparently no one there can (or wants to) speak English. The ATM is all in Japanese. So is the online banking.

On the food in Japan: Each place in Japan boasts its own local specialty. The best one I've had so far has been yakibuta tamago meshi (fried pork belly and an egg on rice) in Imabari, Ehime. It doesn't look like much, but it tasted spectacular!
My favorite Japanese food is ramen, and I was on a quest to try one from every prefecture! Sadly I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease a couple of years ago here, and have had to transition to a gluten-free diet, so ramen is off the table.
I also love sushi and I end up going out for sushi at least once a week. I live within a 20-minute drive of three conveyor belt sushi places, and the great thing about those here is they're $1/plate.

On adjusting to Japanese culture: The shoganai is what I most loathe about Japanese society. Shoganai means "it can't be helped" and it took me a very long time to get used to people throwing that out as a final answer for THINGS THAT COULD DEFINITELY BE HELPED. When I asked for a change, I was often met with this answer.
Living in Japan means you need to be able to "read the air", meaning you need to pick up on subtleties and unspoken rules to keep the group harmony. It's kind of a combination of "don't stir the pot" and "read the room".
On safety in Japan: This is absolutely, without a doubt, the safest place I have ever lived or visited. I don't need to lock my doors, I can leave my iPhone on the table at Starbucks to save my seat. If I drop my wallet, I'll likely find it at the closest police station with everything in it.
That being said, my prefecture has some of the worst drivers in the country and I do not feel safe driving here. People often watch TV on their in-car entertainment system and a lot of the rules of the road are not followed. Streets are extremely narrow and not well-lit. This also makes me nervous when walking on the sides of roads.

On getting around Japan: Most of Japan is well-connected with all kinds of transit. The trains are extremely punctual. One thing to keep in mind is even in metro areas, trains stop running between midnight and 1 am and don't start again until around 5 am. Don't miss the last train!
On traveling solo in Japan as a woman: As a solo female traveller, I couldn't ask for a safer, more comfortable place to travel alone. From road trips to plane rides to never-ending trains to catching local buses, traveling here is a dream. Speaking Japanese does help, but overall people are very kind and eager to learn about you and what you're doing.
On making friends: I initially made friends through my job, as I met many English teachers in my town and surrounding area. I also made friends with a lot of the ALTs who came out of the same consulate as me in Canada (we all did training together and flew to Japan together). I have a lot of teacher friends!
My best circle of friends here came from joining a local traditional dance team. My prefecture, Tokushima, is famous for Awa Odori which is the largest dance festival in Japan. I just finished my second year dancing at the festival, and the people on my dance team have become my Japanese family. They are lovely people and some of the best friends I have made here. Here's a video of the dance.

On the cost of living in Japan: The cost of living is fairly normal for a first-world country; I pay about the same as in small Canadian towns. Rent is a bit cheaper in my town, but that's because where I live is considered the middle of nowhere in Japan. My rent is subsidized, but for a similar style of apartment (ie. a one-bedroom style) you could expect to pay $400-600 USD a month, excluding utilities, for a new-ish apartment. One thing to note here is that appliances are generally not included in apartment rentals – you have to buy your own.
On Japanese healthcare: Japan operates a National Health System (NHS). Residents pay into it every month in the form of a deduction on each paycheck. Then, when you use the system, you are responsible for 30% of the total cost. The NHS covers both medical and dental care.
One thing I like about the NHS is there's no referral system. If I want to see a specialist, I call them and make an appointment myself (unlike in Canada). There's no waiting four months to get an appointment here. Also, I can choose my doctors.
The only downside is having to pay for the NHS twice – once through a deduction on my paycheck, then also having to still pay 30% every time I use the system. That being said, paying 30% of the appointment cost is not a huge amount. For example, I see an endocrinologist every six months where I get a blood test, consultation with the doctor, and an ultrasound. This sets me back a whopping $40. A teeth cleaning costs around $15.
Overall, the health care here is like any first world country and there is a high level of care. However, many expats express frustration with the system here, especially if you are a woman. Symptoms can often be brushed off by (old male) doctors who will tell you to "just relax" or "don't be so stressed". You definitely have to be able to advocate for yourself here. Mental illness is still highly stigmatized and often just swept under the rug.

On the technology: Everyone thinks Japan is this futuristic robot high-tech place but let me tell you, that's one neighborhood in Tokyo and that's about it. People are still using fax machines for everything here. The office administrator at my school doesn't know how to attach files to emails. The IT guy at my board of education doesn't know how an internet router works. There's no internet on any of the smartboards in my classroom. The only restaurants with wifi are McDonald's and Starbucks. Don't even get me started on the ATMs that CLOSE AT NIGHT AND ON WEEKENDS and the "online banking" that deserves those quotation marks.
On holidays in Japan: Christmas is a pretty funny holiday in Japan. It's a day for going on a date, or eating KFC with your family. Yes, KFC. They sell specific Christmas buckets and you have to order months in advance, and they usually sell out!
But as for a truly Japanese holiday, Setsubun is a quirky one. It's held every February 3rd, and is a festival celebrating the beginning of spring in Japan (for most of the country, spring is from around mid-February through the end of April). It used to be sort of a New Year's festival back when Japan was still following the lunar calendar.
Locals celebrate Setsubun by having the oldest male or head of household wear an oni (ogre) mask and the rest of the family members throw roasted soybeans at the oni and yell "demons out, luck in!" and chase the oni out of the house and slam the door. Some people still do this at home (especially if they have kids, as kids love chasing the oni) but these days most people go to a temple or shrine to celebrate.

On what she misses from home: Sometimes I miss just the ease of going into a restaurant and being able to read the entire menu easily or ask questions. Restaurants here are not really down with substitutions and as someone with a lot of food restrictions, that gets frustrating sometimes.
I also miss the variety of food. I love Japanese food and honestly am happy eating it every day, but I don't have much choice outside of it. If I want Vietnamese, Ethiopian, or Greek food I'm out of luck. My town has one Indian restaurant and some Japanese-style western restaurants, and that's it for non-Japanese stuff.
On what she wishes she had brought from home: PANTS. PANTS ALL DAY LONG.
I am 5'8" and usually wear a size 12 or 14 pant in North America. That's a 5XL (!!!) in Japanese pant sizes, and sizes above XL (around a 6-8 US) are often only sold in specialty stores in larger urban centers or online. I am also much taller than most Japanese women, so even finding the right size of pants were way too short on me. Also, the Asian body type for most women here does not include curves or any junk in the trunk, so pants here really don't accommodate that at all. Pants here are my enemy. I should have brought more. Now I order American brands off Amazon!
On living in Japan long-term: I wouldn't consider living in Japan long-term. While I love this country and I'm grateful for the opportunity I've been given to live here for a few years, the unwillingness to integrate foreigners into their society is a red flag for me. You could live here for 50 years, speak fluent Japanese, do everything right culturally and still get the "OMG A FOREIGNER" yells and pointing while you do your grocery shopping, and people will still ask you if you know how to use chopsticks and when you're going back to your own country. I can't get down with that. But it's a great place to spend a few years and get to know the country on a deeper level than just being a tourist.
Thanks so much, Rika!

New Nashville venue The Eighth Room coming to former Douglas Corner space
Dave Paulson
Nearly two years after the closing of Douglas Corner Café — among Nashville's most famed songwriters rooms — a new music venue is moving into its former space, and its owners hope to carry the torch.
The Eighth Room plans to open this April at 2106 Eighth Ave. S., and partners Jason Hollis and Brad Dunbar say it will be a home for both emerging and established talents in an "intimate lounge and showcase room setting."
Beyond the music, The Eighth Room plans to offer "high-end" whiskey, bourbon and tequila with craft cocktails, wine and local beer.
Along with the Bluebird Café, Douglas Corner Café served as one of Nashville's premier showcases for country songwriters and rising artists. Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Trisha Yearwood and Blake Shelton are among thousands who performed at the venue from 1987 to 2020.
Douglas Corner Café closed for good in May of 2020, two months after the city closed all bars and limited restaurant capacity in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
"It breaks my heart, but there comes a time when we all need to move on and do other things," owner Mervin Louque said.
Work is currently underway at the future home of The Eighth Room, and there's already a sign it will be a more eclectic venue than the room's former tenant. A Spotify playlist called "The Eighth Room Sounds" runs the gamut from funk and soul to garage rock, punk and outlaw country.
You can keep up with their progress on Instagram at @the_eighth_room, and sign up for updates at www.eighthroom.com.

China, US clash at UN over Uighur detentions
by AFP 08:30, 8 May 2019 Updated 22:56, 31 March 2020
China angrily assailed the United States on Tuesday for calling on countries at the United Nations to deprive Beijing of a seat at a UN forum over its treatment of the Uighur minority.
It was the second time in as many weeks that the two countries openly clashed at the United Nations over the rights of the Uighurs and other mostly Muslim minorities held in camps in China's Xianjiang region.
Last week, the United States invited the head of the World Uighur Congress, Dolkun Isa, to address the UN forum on indigenous peoples, infuriating China.

US diplomat Courtney Nemoff said ahead of elections on Tuesday that China's treatment of Uighurs should be a factor in deciding on membership to the UN forum tasked with protecting indigenous people worldwide.
"The United States is alarmed that more than a million Uighurs, ethnic Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, and other Muslims have suffered arbitrary detention, forced labor, torture, and death in camps in China's Xinjiang" region, said Nemoff.
"These atrocities must be stopped. We call on member states to bear this in mind in this important forum."
A Chinese diplomat took the floor to strongly reject the US statement.
"The US representative made an unreasonable accusation against China and defamation against China," he said, expressing Beijing's "strong displeasure over this and our firm opposition to it."
Despite the US appeal, China's candidate, Zhang Xiaoan, was elected by acclamation to the 16-member UN forum along with four other representatives from Burundi, Namibia, Denmark and Russia.

Beijing claims the camps in Xinjiang are "vocational training centers" to steer people away from extremism and reintegrate them, in a region plagued by violence blamed on Uighur separatists or Islamists.
In his address at the UN, Isa said Uighurs were being rounded up to live in "an open-air prison," deprived of their religious rights and freedom.
The Chinese diplomat told the meeting that Isa was a "terrorist designated by the Chinese government" and supported by the US, which "is utilizing him to attack China and defame China, with no basis at all."
The United States was among a group of countries that asked UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to raise the plight of the Uighurs during his visit to China last month.
Guterres told Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi that "human rights must be fully respected in the against terrorism," according to UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric.

The first European explorers to visit the Westchester area were Giovanni da Verrazzano in 1524 and Henry Hudson in 1609. Dutch settlers began arriving in the 1620s, followed by settlers from England in the 1640s. Westchester County was one of the original twelve counties of the Province of New York, created by an act of the New York General Assembly in 1683. At the time it included present day Bronx County, and abutted then-Dutchess County to the north. By 1775, Westchester was the richest and most populous county in the colony of New York. Although the Revolutionary War devastated the county, recovery after the war was rapid. In 1788, five years after the end of the war, the county was divided into 20 towns. In 1798, the first federal census recorded a population of 24,000 for the county. Learn more.
