Q: How to test and compare stored procedures in Sql server 2014 I have optimised a stored procedure and created as new one. i want to test the new and old one whether both are pulling same data ie. i wanted to do some automated testing.
Anyone please help on this

A: You can achieve this by using in-memory tables.
Let's say you have a stored procedure named getUsers which will give you the list of all the users. The result set contains the fields: Id, Name,Username. Now you can save the result set returned by this stored procedure in an in-memory table, do the same for another stored procedure in an another in-memory table and then compare these two tables.
How can I save the result set of a stored procedure?
Here's how you do it:
declare @MyTable table (Id int, [Name] varchar(50), [Username] varchar(50));

insert into @MyTable
exec getUsers

Do the same thing for the other stored procedure, then compare the result sets returned.

A: I don't quite understand your question,but in sqlserver has Audit&Execution Plan maybe solve auto do tasks,you can try

Istanbul – Last Capital of the Roman Empire and Modern Turkish Delight
Posted on May 29, 2012 by Michael Noel
At the border between Europe and Asia lies a powerful and historic city that has been hotly contested over the years. Once the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, this was a bastion of culture and power during the times while the Western Roman Empire was stumbling through the dark ages. Originally founded as Byzantium, the city today known as Istanbul was later renamed as Constantinople upon its selection of the new capital of the Roman Empire. This elevation to the capital of the most powerful empire of the time was just the beginning of the history of this proud and dynamic city at the crossroads of Europe and Asia.
In all of the travels I have done over the years, I was painfully aware of the fact that I kept sidestepping a visit to Istanbul. I tried to get there on multiple occasions, but the cruel hand of logistics always got in the way. Well, no more…during a lull between a speaking event in Kiev and one in Brussels, I found an opening, a 24 hour layover in Istanbul! This was my chance, and I grabbed it. And wow, what an experience it was…Istanbul was an even more enjoyable experience than I had expected. But first, to understand modern-day Istanbul you must first understand its historical past.
Relics of Constantinople
The story of Istanbul starts well in the past, around the year 660 BC, when the city of Byzantium was founded by the Greeks. Recognizing its defensible position and ideal location within the Roman empire as a capital, later Roman emperor Constantine the Great moved the capital of the empire here and named it Nova Roma, or New Rome in 330 AD. After his death, and as a tribute to him, the city then became known as Constantinople, a title it would keep for nearly 1600 years. The city remained the capital of the Roman empire, first as official capital of all of the empire itself, and then later as capital of the partitioned Eastern Roman Empire. Indeed, after Rome and the Western Roman Empire fell in 476 AD, Constantinople continued on for nearly another 1000 years as the successor to Rome itself. It is clear that this city has seen its fair share of grandeur.
Over the years, the city grew illustrious, rich, and powerful. Roman emperors built monuments, churches, and massive structures such as the Hippodrome of Constantinople, which was adorned with monuments such as the Obelisk of Theodosius, an Ancient Egyptian obelisk originally created around 1450 BC and shipped to Constantinople in the year 357 AD. This obelisk, as well as the Walled Obelisk, a later Byzantine-created obelisk, can be found in present day Sultanahmet Meydani square, the location for the remains of the ancient hippodrome. It is fascinating to imagine the chariot races flying around these obelisks in ancient times, keeping the Roman population well entertained and providing for diversions from everyday Roman life.
The large flourishing population also needed a constant drinking supply, and aqueducts and reservoirs were built to supply that need. The most famous and ancient of these is currently known as the Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Sarayı,) and a visit to this amazing subterranean structure is highly recommended.
At the back end of the Basilica cistern is the most curious part of the structure…two carved heads of Medusa which have been incorporated into the columns of the cistern…one lying on its side and another upside down. No one is exactly sure why this is the case, but it is known that these statues came from older temple structures.
Of course, Istanbul's story does not end with the Romans, one of the most famous and influential events in European history happened here in 1453 AD, the Siege of the city and its eventual capture and settlement by the Ottoman Turks.
That famous siege, which is officially seen as the death knell of the Roman Empire, was in reality, the second time that the city itself was successfully assaulted. The first time was in the year 1204 during the Venetian funded Fourth Crusade, at a time when the city itself was much more heavily populated and strategic. Indeed, the city itself never fully recovered from the sacking and subsequent occupation during the time of the Latin Empire, a period of time which saw Byzantine influence in world affairs dramatically decline.
Byzantine Walls
To understand why Constantinople was only successfully overcome twice in military history is really a testament to its system of Byzantine Walls, which were massive, multiple and even included novel defense concepts such as a floating chain that blocked ships from entering the harbor of the Golden Horn. Large sections of these walls are still intact, and can be seen in multiple spots around Istanbul, particularly the sea wall itself, but also as part of several land gates.
The walls of the city are some of the most complex ever built, and were extremely effective at keeping out invaders. The list of sieges the city faced are extensive, and include the following:
List of Sieges of Constantinople
Year Attacker Result
626 Avars, Slavs, and Sassanid Persians Failure
674-678 Arabs – First Siege Failure
717-718 Arabs – Second Siege Failure
813 Bulgars Failure
821 Thomas the Slav (Revolt) Failure
860 Rus' – First Siege Failure
941 Rus' – Second Siege Failure
1047 Leo Tornikios (Revolt) Failure
1203 Fourth Crusade – First Siege Failure
1204 Fourth Crusade – Second Siege Success
1235 Nicaeans – First Siege Failure
1260 Nicaeans – Second Siege Failure
1390-1402 Ottoman Turks – Various minor sieges and blockades Failure
1422 Ottoman Turks – First Major Siege Failure
1453 Ottoman Turks – Second Major Siege Success
The fact that the city was besieged so many times yet was only conquered twice is a testament to these massive and complex walls, as well as the city's defensible position on a peninsula.
The Turks kept these walls maintained all the way through the 1870s, and a good portion of them can be viewed today. Taking a look at a map of the historical walls is fascinating, and shows how they encompassed a huge amount of territory. The final set of walls, built during the reign of Thedosius II, was a massive double-wall project that included a moat and a large number of defensive towers such as the Marble Tower ("Marble Tower" (Mermer Kule), also known as the "Tower of Basil and Constantine" (Pyrgos Basileiou kai Kōnstantinou.)
Despite the weakened state of the Byzantine empire, the inhabitants were still able to hold off the Ottomans for two months during the final siege of the city in 1453. Eventually, even the world's most extensive and complex wall system was unable to hold the Ottomans out, however, and they conquered the city on 29 May 1453, putting an end to the ancient Roman Empire which had existed for 1500 years (or 2000, depending on if you count the years of the Roman Republic.
This is the part that is truly fascinating to me…the Roman Republic was founded in 509 BC, continued until 27 BC, when it became an Empire, then continued uninterrupted until at least 1204, when it was temporarily interrupted by the capture of the city by the Fourth Crusade. Re-established in 1261, it then continued to exist all the way until 1453, literally just over 2000 years after the founding of the republic. The influence this society had on world affairs is unmistakable, and the imprint of the civilization can still be found all over the modern city of Istanbul. Even today, the Greeks that remain within Istanbul are known as Rumlars, a term that refers to their self-identity as Roman citizens.
One final note about the capture of the city…with the fall of what was christened 'Nova Roma' by Constantine, the world looked for a Third Rome to continue the Roman empire. Several societies conclude that they are indeed the heirs to that title, starting with the Turkish sultans saw themselves as the rightful heirs to the empire itself. Outside of the city itself, however, many in the Russian Empire began to see Moscow as the Third Rome and the heir to the Roman Empire.
To bolster this argument, advocates point to the fact that the Russian Prince Ivan III 'The Great' (Иван III Васильевич) was married to Sophia Palaiologina (Ζωή Παλαιολογίνα / София Фоминична Палеолог,) the niece of the last Byzantine emperor. She became highly influential in the Russian court, and helped to fuel the dialogue of Moscow as the Third Rome, introducing Byzantine customs and insignia, such as the double-headed eagle. Future Russian rulers were subsequently referred to as Tsar (царь), a Slavic abbreviation of the Latin term Ceasar. Still today, you can find reference to Moscow and the Russian empire as the 'Third Rome' within the popular media and literature in Russia.
The building that fascinated me most about my trip to Istanbul is the former church, mosque, and later desecularized museum known locally as Ayasofya, and historically as Hagia Sophia (Hagia Sofia, Ἁγία Σοφία, Sancta Sophia.)
Hagia Sofia was for nearly 1000 years the largest Church in the world, and its architectural form influenced nearly every church and even many mosques that came after it. It is a glorious building to visit, and what makes it particularly interesting is the mixture between styles represented in the building. Some of the original Christian imagery that was plastered over has been uncovered, while much of the Muslim add-ons remain as well, creating a space that is truly unique.
One can just imagine the impact that this amazing piece of spiritual architecture would have had on visitors over the years, and indeed the cathedral itself was mentioned many times in accounts of the city by travelers.
For example, the ancient Primary Chronicle (Повѣсть времяньныхъ лѣтъ) of Kievan Rus' even attributes Kievan Rus' adoption of Orthodox Christianity to a visit that the Prince's envoys made to the Cathedral, remarking that they were awed by the sights and sounds of the Cathedral, remarking "…we didn't know if we were on earth itself, as the impossible beauty we witnessed could not have existed anywhere else in this worldly existence." (…и не свѣмъı на н҃бѣ ли єсмъı бъıли ли на земли нѣ бо на земли такаго вида ли красотъı такоӕ не дооумѣємъ бо сказати токмо то вѣмъı.) According to the Chronicle, these envoys had been sent to major religious sites of all of the other religions as well to help the Prince decide what religion for his people to adopt, but were most impressed with Orthodox Christianity because of their visit to the church itself.
If this account is taken at face value, it literally means that the beauty of this building alone was one of the main driving factors which accounted for the Eastern Slavs, including the Russians, Ukrainians, and Belarusians belonging to the Eastern Orthodox faith today, a fascinating fact.
Many of the original tile murals depicting Christian scenes have been uncovered since the time when Hagia Sophia was converted into a Museum, and sit alongside some of the Islamic additions to the building, most notably the mihrab, the minbar, and four minarets, as well as the massive wooden circular medallions inscribed with the Arabic names for Allah, the Prophet Muhammad, the first four Islamic caliphs, and Hassan and Hussain, the two grandchildren of Muhammad.
Even today, one can appreciate the massive size and scale of this complex, and understand why the Ottomans decided to keep it and convert it to a Mosque, rather than build something new in its place.
A final note…this building was one of the finalists in the "New Seven Wonders of the World" competition and, while it didn't make the final cut, it is plain to see that this building has had a phenomenal affect on world architecture, and is truly one of the wonders of the world to behold.
Sultan Ahmed (Blue) Mosque
The second most famous building in Istanbul is widely considered to be the Sultan Ahmed Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii,) commonly referred to as the Blue Mosque because of the blue tile ornamentation in the interior. A visit to Istanbul is not complete within a visit to this amazing edifice, designed by Albanian architect Sedefkar Mehmed Agha (Sedefkâr Mehmed Ağa.)
The Mosque is unique in that it is one of the few mosques in the world that have more than four minarets, a design choice that was controversial for years, and is still relatively uncommon in Islamic architecture.
Unlike the desecularized Hagia Sophia, the Sultan Ahmed Mosque is a working religious building, so special consideration must be taken into account when visiting. Women must cover their heads and legs, and everyone must take their shoes off. They do provide for plastic bags to place your shoes in, however, and provide for shawls for covering up as well, making it relatively easy to enter into the mosque and explore. Do note, however, that the tourist part of the mosque is isolated to one corner of the building, and the remainder of the floor is devoted to those who are there for religious purposes.
It is truly amazing how humans never completely throw away the architecture that came before them…we are always borrowing from cultures that came before us, and the Blue Mosque is no exception to this, having borrowed many architectural elements from Hagia Sophia across the street.
The Sultan Ahmed Mosque was actually built on the spot where the old Byzantine Great Palace of Constantinople was located. Heavily damaged during the sack of the city during the Fourth Crusade, the Palace was torn down by the Ottomans and later replaced with the Mosque and other structures in the area.
The new Ottoman rulers of Constantinople needed a new palace to replace the dilapidated former Byzantine Palace, and decided to build a brand new massive palace on the location of the former acropolis, on Seraglio Point near the mouth of the Golden Horn.
The Topkapi Palace was built to be elaborate, extravagant, and to rival some of the great palaces of the world. The Ottomans had every intent on transforming the city into a place of great beauty, and were intent on resurrecting Constantinople as one of the premier destinations in the world, a goal which can be reflected within the palace today.
By the way, you'll note that I keep referring to the post-Ottoman conquest city as Constantinople. Contrary to popular belief, the Ottomans did not immediately change the name of the city to Istanbul. This only took place later on in its history, and only became the official name of the city in 1928. During the Ottoman times, it was continued to be referred to by its old name.
A visit to the Topkapi Palace is a fascinating look at the life of the sultans, who ruled over a great an influential empire from these walls for almost 400 years, before they moved the official royal residence to the European style Dolmabahçe Palace.
The harem area of the palace is especially interesting as well, and gives a peak into the lives of the Sultan's Imperial Harem, a guarded space that was controlled by the mother of the Sultan himself, known as the Valide Sultan, or Queen Mother. To have your love life controlled by your mother is a recipe for disaster, if you ask me, but it seemed to work for the Sultans.
The Ottoman empire had a huge effect on world affairs, acting as a bridge between Europe and the Middle East and leaving a lasting impression on the Balkans, an impact visible even today, and reflected in some of my recent blog posts on Kosovo, Albania, Bulgaria, and FYRO Macedonia and an earlier trip I documented on Croatia, Serbia, Romania, and Bosnia Herzegovina.
The Straights of Bosphorus
The strategic position of Istanbul corresponds directly to its location between Europe and Asia, at the strategic straights of Bosphorus (Boğaziçi, Βόσπορος) a narrow waterway that links the Mediterranean Sea with the Black Sea. The straights are extremely critical in importance, all the way to modern times, as they were viewed as a means to help contain the Soviet Black Sea fleet (Черноморский Флот) which could only gain access to International waters via the narrow straights themselves.
The Golden Horn
The Golden Horn (Haliç), or the inlet of the Bosphorus straight that forms a natural harbor that turns the old city of Istanbul into a peninsula. Strategic and beautiful, the Golden Horn is traversed by several bridges, including the famous Galata Bridge, upon which you can find relaxing restaurants on the lower deck and numerous local fishermen and strolling pedestrians on top.
The Golden Horn holds a particularly special meaning for me as a resident of San Francisco, for our famous Golden Gate was indeed named after the Golden Horn itself, with John C. Frémont noting "To this Gate I gave the name of Chrysopylae, or Golden Gate; for the same reasons that the harbor of Byzantium was called Chrysoceras, or Golden Horn."
The Spice Bazaar
The Spice Bazaar in Istanbul (Mısır Çarşısı) is an old covered market at the old city side of the Galata Bridge that was originally built in 1660 and has served as a center for the spice trade over the years.
Now, of course, many of the stores within the Spice Bazaar now cater to tourists who are looking to purchase more than just spices, but you can still find numerous spice-only stores, along with other souvenir items, if you are so inclined.
Around the Old City
My time in Istanbul was limited to the Old City, and I explored a few additional areas of note, including the Mosque known as the Little Hagia Sophia (Küçuk Ayasofya Camii,) formerly the Church of the Saints Sergius and Bacchus, a Byzantine church built in the year 536 that likely served as a model for the larger Hagia Sophia church built later.
I also spent a good deal of time roaming around the streets of the Old City, which take you through quaint neighborhoods, up hilly streets, and through historic bazaars. I had the opportunity to sample some amazing Ottoman cuisine as well at the Pasazade Restaurant, where the Kayseri Mantisi dish I sampled ended up being quite easily the best pasta style dish I have ever encountered.
The waterfront down by the Byzantine walls and along the Bosphorus was also a great place for a morning stroll, particularly since on the morning I visited I was greeted by a beautiful rainbow that stretched across the city.
One area of the city I only briefly landed in was the district of Galata (modern day Karaköy / Beyoğlu.) This portion of the city, located immediately across the Golden Horn from the Old City, is the location of the medieval Genoese-built Galata Tower, as well as being a neighborhood well known for its artisans and foreign influences and residents.
What truly impressed me about Istanbul was how this city truly exemplified its role as an ambassador between East and West, a role that modern day Turkey continued to this day. European and Middle East influences can be found throughout the city, and the city itself has thrived, long after the 2000 year reign of the Roman Republic and Empire.
Istanbul is one of those cities which I feel like I've only had a brief but glorious taste of, and I strongly yearn to return to. The people, the culture, the food, and especially the raw history of the place draws me there, and I truly hope to come back again in the near future to this amazing cosmopolitan city on the banks of the Golden Horn.

The author reviewed the aquacultural history, potential of marine, freshwater finfish and sturgeon in Turkey and gives examples on the other countries. Also this review gives information about legal status, previous studies and projects, origins of the seedlings, natural distribution area, restocking studies and aquaculture opportunities. Since a long time, sturgeon is known as valuable caviar production in Turkish Black Sea region. Turkish Black Sea coast is approximately 1685 km long. There were the six indigenous sturgeon species known in the Black Sea; but last studies shows that only three species (Huso huso, Acipenser stellatus, Acipenser gueldensteatdii) are frequently found. These data shows that the other three species (A. ruthenus, A. sturio, A. nudiventris) are in poor existence in the Black sea. The sturgeons are nearly become an extinct because of the over fishing, water pollution and dam & dike constructions on the way of spawning areas. Aquaculture is the only way to increase and protect the natural stocks of this species all over the world.

Glocalisation: Towards Inclusive and Sustainable Global Value Chains
09:00-10:00 DELEGATE ARRIVAL AND NETWORKING
10:00-13:00 LOCAL VALUE CHAIN DEVELOPMENT - THEATRE A
10:00-10:15 Welcome Address
10:15-11:00 Panoramic Panel: The future of production: Organic growth or light-speed?
More than two thirds of world trade occur through Global Value Chains (GVCs) where production crosses borders before making it to final assembly lines. Digital developments are transforming these GVCs further by creating a new digital thread across the chain, allowing for applying advanced systems of traceability and improved logistics and planning.
How would the local adoption of digital value chains help transfer knowledge, build capabilities and spread prosperity in developing and local economies helping to respond to goals of innovation (SDG9) and responsible consumption and production (SDG 12)?
How will initiatives into roads and infrastructure, such as China's BRI, affect local production and digital value chain expansion?
What measures exist to mitigate the negative effects of digital value chains on local labour markets in developing economies to better comply with goals of decent work and economic growth (SDG 8)?
How can digital value chains help mitigate the risks facing developed countries associated with aging workforces, migration and expanding gap between socio-economic classes to be able to deliver on the goal of reducing inequalities (SDG 10)?
Is the comparative advantage of natural resources as determinants of GVC strategic decisions eroded in the presence of new technologies and digital value chains?
11:00-11:45 Panel Discussion: Digital value chains: Building a superhighway for inclusive and sustainable industrial development
For digital value chains to expand and deliver on their global prosperity promise, key enabling factors need to be set in motion on a worldwide scale. This session will dive deeper into these factors, focusing on:
What role does standardisation play as an enabler to digital value chains?
How can connectivity and advanced technology help the advancement of digital value chains?
What policies are in place to protect data and assure against cyber threats?
11:45-13:00 Expert Talks: Migration and SMEs: Capacity building for survival and success
SMEs account for 80-99% of firms in any given country, and 60-70% of global employment. While SMEs are usually under-represented in GVCs, the digital economy provides new opportunities for SMEs to play a more active role as propagators and instigators of 4IR. By using appropriate technologies, SMEs can become better integrated in GVCs. This would contribute to the goal of inclusive industrial development (SDG9) but also poverty reduction (SDG1) and reduced inequalities (SDG 10). This session will evaluate the questions of:
In what way do local SMEs and marginalised regions get engaged – or not – in the uptake of 4IR technology? How can 4IR technologies be used to include and integrate marginalised regions and SMEs in global value chains?
What policy measures need to be developed to ensure accelerated uptake of technology through developing country SMEs and their integration in value chains?
What evidence exists for local SME participation in international trade and production networks and how does digitilisation affect SME contributions to GVCs?
What opportunities and challenges exist in SMEs participating in the digital economy?
How can SMEs adoption and use of digital technologies be enhanced?
In cases of skilled labour migration from one country to another, what potentials exist to use skilled labor force without jeopardizing local SME development?
How can skilled labor be promoted in developing countries and be involved in local production that becomes integrated in global value chains?
What are good examples of policy measures and public-private partnership initiatives that can foster skills development across global value chains?
10:00-13:00 INDUSTRY INNOVATIONS AND SPECIAL FOCUS SESSIONS - INNOVATION THEATRE

14:00-14:30 Official Opening Remarks
14:30-15:45 The Keynote Panel: A Trillion Dollar Question: How can we progress in an age of disruption?
We are living in an age of disruption. Technology is disrupting job progression and business models, while armed conflict, political polarisation, and protectionist measures are detracting from economic growth and long-term goals. How can we progress under these circumstances? What role will Governments and companies play to support the development of global manufacturing? Why is digitalisation important? How does standardisation come into the foray? How will developing countries keep up with these trends? What will the global value chain look like in a few years' time and how will developing countries be integrated within it?
15:45-16:30 The Policymakers' Challenge: Regulate or innovate: What must come first?
The collective impact of digitalisation will alter the global distribution and organisation of production and value chains. Technologies associated with 4IR pose both opportunities and challenges for countries participating in GVCs. The panel will discuss the implications of a likely disparity of 4IR technology adoption in developed and developing countries and opportunities to comply with the goals of inclusive industrial development (SDG9). More importantly, should regulation to avoid potential risk come first? Or should application be allowed to progress while developed and developing countries alike are learning from it? Related issues are the following?
How will robotics, big data and the internet of things impact workers around the world?
Should 4IR progress be halted until we've figured out how to regulate it to support developing nations?
What policies do governments need to prepare their countries in general for the future of 4IR use in manufacturing?
What policy measures can developing economies consider in order to move up the technological ladder, increase their contribution to GVCs and ensure a growing GDP?
16:30-17:15 Panoramic Panel: Inclusivity in an age of diversity and disparity
European countries are taking full advantage of 4IR technologies to support and advance their industrial sectors. Most European countries have set their own 4IR strategies, and as digital transformation brings new technologies, services, or business models to Europe, it requires a clear and supportive regulatory environment. Europe is in the midst of economic and political challenges that are forcing many countries on the continent to take stands towards global issues that will affect their industrial policies. These issues include an ageing workforce, migration, climate change, protectionism policies and international relations. This session will take a deep dive into these issues as they related to 4IR assimilation and dissemination throughout Europe.
What are strategies for 4IR technology adoption in the context of an ageing workforce and migration?
How do policy frameworks look that foster 4IR technology use in the age of protectionism policies and deteriorating international relations?
What potentials exist in the use 4IR technologies to mitigate climate change?
What are experiences in 4IR technology assimilation and dissemination?
17:15 END OF DAY ONE
10:00-13:00 POLICIES AND STANDARDS - MAIN THEATRE
10:00-11:00 The Industry Leaders Forum: Can we future-proof ourselves by adopting smart technologies?
4IR technologies, including artificial Intelligence, robotics, and IoT, have the potential to enhance the capacity of informed decision making, affecting all industry sectors and demanding high skilled professionals to operate the machines. Organisations are at risk for underappreciating and underinvesting in this crucial area. Educational strategies and policies across the globe are required to keep up with the fast-changing employment needs of the industrial sector whose demand for technologically skilled professionals grows exponentially. Educational systems need to change towards new curricula and new means of continuous education complying with the goal of improved quality of education (SDG4). Related issues include the following:
How real is the risk of technology driving greater levels of unemployment, or will technology open up new jobs in the future?
What measures can be taken to help shape job creation in 4IR? How are industries responding to the growing needs of the current workforce for skills-upgrading and training?
What educational reforms are required to align education systems with the needs of innovative industries and the rapid advancements associated with the adoption of 4IR technologies?
11:00-12:00 Hyde Park Corner Debate: Do we agree to disagree on digital standardisation?
The vast variety of 4IR technologies make it difficult for companies to choose technologies relevant for them. It is argued that standardisation of these technologies could help companies decide which ones are useful. This is more complicated than it sounds, given the large variety of technologies and their innovative and changing nature. This session will review the current trends in absorbing digital technology worldwide and evaluate the opportunities for a systematisation of such technologies through international institutions to create transparency and standards. The following questions are prevalent in this respect:
Is it important to have internationally recognised standards for 4IR technologies?
Can the great variety of digital technological solutions be adequately categorised and standardised? How does the international standardisation landscape look like? How far have the national and international standards bodies, research institutions and the relevant political ministries reached?
How can standards be applied in an age of ever-increasing personalised manufacturing?
How can the multitude of international bodies relevant to 4IR standardisation work together to achieve international standardisation of 4IR technologies?
Are there any regulatory challenges affecting the dissemination and application of international standards?
12:00-13:00 Green Talks: The millennial investor: taking a green view
Many countries are adopting green economy strategies based on reuse and recycling of product materials to sustain resources for a better future. Are investors following suit? This session examines green funding trends across the globe, focusing on:
How are emerging technologies, affecting and driving industrial investment in sustainable manufacturing methods?
What type of investments are being made into industries and businesses that support green manufacturing?
What further action can be taken by international organisations, governments and private sector to enhance investment and financing for the purpose of using 4IR for the advancement of circular economy strategies and actions?
10:00-13:00 PARTNERSHIPS - THEATRE A
10:00-11:00 Ask the CEO: Co-opetition and co-creation; a new form of collusion or creativity?
The success of digital technology in manufacturing is dependent on factors such as overall adoption by all parties, investment costs, human resources deployed, skills development and more. One factor that stands out and merits further discussion is the role played by international cooperation between private sector, public establishments and international organisations to support dissemination of information, technology and skills worldwide complying also with the goal of partnering across countries and institutions (SDG17). This session will review the opportunities and challenges facing industry leaders and policymakers alike as they seek further collaboration to increase productivity and benefit from all prospects posed by 4IR across the globe.
What is the role of industry agreements in creating market opportunities for small and large corporations?
What advantages can joint ventures offer across the digital value chain?
Which multi-level and multi-stakeholder partnerships for technological transfer in Global Value Chains can be pictured?

4IR machines, technology and equipment are revolutionising manufacturing by digitalising production processes, quality assurance, maintenance, planning, forecasting, innovation and discovery, time to market, supply chain efficiency, and many other aspects of the manufacturing eco-system. Digital data capture and data flow is enabling a degree of flexibility and efficiency that dramatically lowers production costs while increasing scale, agility and profitability. How quickly can that be sustainably achieved, and more importantly for most manufacturers, at what cost?
What are the commercial benefits of digital technology adoption?
What are the financing options and techniques available to smaller corporations to implement their digital transformation?
How can joint ventures and partnerships support the acquisition and financing of digital technology?
How can partnerships support inclusive and sustainable industrial development?
12:00-13:00 Private Sector Views: Is creating shared value (CSV) the new CSR?
Traditional CSR programmes of global companies have focused on humanitarian aid, education and improving living conditions of people in developing countries. However, large players in global value chains may need to consider their responsibility in the development of producers (suppliers) in developing countries and ensure they source sufficient products from people that are in need of development while helping them in the adoption of the right technologies to produce high quality outputs. Issues to be discussed during the session include:
How far can global companies go in sourcing products from less developed companies?
Can global players develop voluntary standards for the industry (similar to fair-trade for example) that ensure sourcing of materials from less developed environments
How can global companies support SMEs to adopt and use advanced (digital) technologies?
10:00-13:00 Technologies and Industrial Safety - INNOVATION THEATRE
10:00-10:30 Storytelling Session: Developing a digital blueprint: making it happen anywhere and everywhere
Innovation is paramount in modern manufacturing, but even the most ambitious manufacturers struggle with the technology, infrastructure, and executive support they need to realise their goals. IoT infrastructure is most-cited as the primary disruptor in manufacturing (16%), and most-cited as the number-one technology or capability manufacturers require to transition to the "factory of the future". This session will tell the story of the challenges of this transition and how factories are utilising 4IR technologies, to create efficient, cost-effective and smart manufacturing facilities.
10:30-11:00 Additive Manufacturing Lightning Talk: Freight forwarding 4.0; digitise, transmit, and print
seems like it was only yesterday that the world of manufacturing started to hear about 3D printing, let alone use it in industrial manufacturing. Currently, innovators are taking steps to go beyond the 3D printing model into 4D printing, opening up a whole new world of possibilities for industrial use. This session will shed light on new trends in additive manufacturing and what they mean for the future of the sector.
11:00-12:00 The Heavy Weights Panel: Physical and virtual compatibility; making heavy industries fast, lean and resilient
It's not an easy job if you are an executive in the heavy industries sector. You are most likely looking at how to transform your frequently large and conservative operation into agile enterprises capable of meeting new competition and opportunity head on with faster, leaner and more resilient operations. You are also under societal and legislative pressure to conserve energy, use fewer natural resources and ensure environmental sustainability. This session will offer unique insight into these challenges:
Using 4IR technologies to identify gaps, needs and resource requirements
Difficulties and challenges facing heavy industries in adopting 4IR technologies
How can 4IR support the dissemination of circular manufacturing in heavy industries?

The extra layer of digitalisation produced by using AR and its counterpart, VR, is not immediately visible when it comes to industrial machinery. This session will offer real-life case studies of augmented and virtual reality applications that have the potential to change the operational processes of factories and manufacturing facilities, saving time, money and energy.
12:30-13:00 Fireside Chat: Big data=big changes
The amount of data produced by digital technology is massive. One of the main challenges facing organisations is how to interpret all this data and make use of it in ways to benefit them and their consumers. This in-depth discussion with industry leaders will shed light on:
Organisational capabilities and resources available for data interpretation and analysis
Data-driven manufacturing and ensuring quality data only is used in decision making
When does manufacturing process data pass its useful life and can be deleted?
14:00-16:30 GLOBAL VALUE CHAINS IN THE 2030 ERA - MAIN THEATRE
14:00-14:50 Panel Discussion: Can we digitise global value chains to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)?
The SDGs aim at a better and more sustainable future for all, and provide a global development framework that favors collective action by all countries. Adopted in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly, this session will take stock of global progress on the SDGs with special attention to the links between the transformation of manufacturing and production chains with societal and economic goals. Main issues to be discussed in the session include:
How sustainable and inclusive are global value chains currently and how likely they are going to be in the future after the application of new technologies?
How can companies participating in GVCs as lead firms commit to sustainable economic development through compliance with environmental protection standards, gender equity, labour standards and benefits, community development and quality assurance in ways that benefit both the business' and society's overall development?
How can government programmes and development agencies provide support to GVC actors that face challenges to participate, apply new technology or comply with standards?
14:50-15:40 Expert Talk: Will the fourth wave of feminism be industrial?
There is sufficient evidence that women and girls are often negatively affected by integration in global value chains. Either they lose jobs when companies start producing for global brands or they remain employed to do underpaid tasks requiring less skills. They often lack knowledge on how to apply digital technology for productive uses. This session explores the effects of countries integrating in global value chains on women employment and remuneration.
Can digitalisation in the industrial sector advance gender equality in manufacturing, promoting women as innovators and entrepreneurs?
How can the UN best facilitate and promote investments in access to digital skills and economic opportunities for women and girls?
What are good examples of policy measures and public-private partnership initiatives that can enable women and girls to reap the benefits of the digitalisation of production?
15:40-16:30 The Hot Topic: Can AI save our planet?
The evolution of 4IR technology, such as IoT, big data analytics, and cyber–physical systems, among others, still have an unknown potential impact on sustainability and the environment and compliance with the goals of climate action (SDG13) and sustainable industrial development (SDG9). The pattern of current production and its sourcing methods is proving unsustainable and environmentally harmful. Society, public sector, and non-governmental organizations are demanding that the industrial sector produce in an economically, environmentally and socially sustainable manner. This requirement is genuine since it has become evident that production, when focused only on profit, leads to an unequal distribution of wealth, poor working conditions, the depletion of environmental stocks and the overexploitation of ecological services. The advent of 4IR, with its potential for efficiency, circular manufacturing and zero-waste, can be the long-awaited solution to many environmental concerns.
How can 4IR support production within the paradigm of environmental sustainability and energy efficiency?
What are the benefits and competitive advantages of producing in an environmental proactive way?
What are the policy changes, regulations and standards required to assure that 4IR adaptation leads to a positive environmental impact?
Identifying 4IR characteristics that offer a plausible opportunity for integration with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
14:00-16:30 GLOBAL PANORAMA: INDUSTRIALISATION AND TRADE AMONG REGIONS - THEATRE A
14:00-14:50 Europe and USA: What does the future hold for international trade policy?
Manufacturing has always been integral to the European and US economies. However, now manufacturers on both sides of the Atlantic stand at a critical point. As demographics and economic climates shift, trade barriers increase and partnering with technology leaders is less open-source and restricted, companies find it more difficult to innovate and stay competitive, especially in view of the competition in Asia. This session will review the challenges and opportunities facing European and US manufacturing, including:
Growing skills gap in the workforce
The effects of migration on workforce and consumer markets for industrial products
Global competition and a growing protectionist policy
Adoption of new technologies, not only on the factory floor, but also in sales, marketing and supply chain management to remain globally competitive
Rapid upscaling of small and medium manufacturers to the appropriate technologies, thus ensuring that the small suppliers can meet the needs of the large manufacturers, the market, and the world
14:50-15:40 Africa and the Middle East: Can manufacturing overcome conflict and instability?
Industrialisation is still nascent in both regions and most policy-makers believe that manufacturing will guarantee job-creation and future prosperity for their countries. However, both regions are riddled with issues and challenges, including armed conflict, political instability and declining economic conditions. If trade between the two regions could be intensified, could there be benefits to be realized from the differences in economic structures and specialisations?
What are the key drivers and policy constraints for manufacturing in both regions? Why have they lagged behind in industrialisation and adoption of digital technology?
What impact will digitisation have on industrial production and the integration in global value chains?
How can manufacturing and digital technologies create opportunities for the regions?
How can both regions produce at a competitive rate and what would they produce?
What impact will de-globalisation, protectionist policies and localised manufacturing have on the region's manufacturing future?
15:40-16:30 South East Asia and Latin America: Will digital transformation bridge the wealth between South and North?
It is claimed that 4IR technology has the potential to reinvigorate SEA's manufacturing, potentially delivering productivity gains worth $216 billion to $627 billion. On the other hand, Latin America seems to be far from picturing such benefits. Is it that technological advances have less benefits in Latin America? Structure and skills wise, Latin America could eventually reap much more benefits from 4IR and become better integrated in global value chains. The two regions, given their different economic structure, could also improve the exchange of manufactured goods and technologies. The session will explore different growth path and strategies for development in the two regions with particular focus on:
What is the status of integration of the two regions in GVCs?
How will the local and regional value chain be affected by the digital transformation of the regions?
How will the manufacturing footprint in 10-15 years' time look like for SEA and Latin America?
How can Latin American countries accelerate the deployment and adoption of digital manufacturing technologies? How can they partner with SEA to accelerate technological development?
14:00-14:20 Flash Talk: Will Blockchain eliminate jobs?
According to Forbes, by 2023 30% of manufacturing companies with more than $5B in revenue will have implemented 4IR pilot projects using blockchain. Is all the hype around blockchain real? This session will shed light on the following:
Blockchain applications in the field of manufacturing
The expected ROI of implementing blockchain; is it worth the hype?
Challenges in implementation and how to overcome them
14:20-15:00 Expert Talks: Can big data, AI and 3D Printing revolutionise the chemicals industry?
For many years the global chemicals industry has been fighting declining margins, product commoditisation, rapidly expanding competition in developing countries, and customers demanding more at lower prices. Although a wide range of digital advances — including the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, big data, and wide-area networks — are transforming virtually every industry, chemicals companies have by and large stayed on the sidelines. This session will offer an insider view into the changes taking place in the chemical industry and the impact 4IR may have on tipping the scales in its favour.
Highlighting the technological and digital advances that have the potential to change the chemicals industry as we know it
Is there a business case for implementing digital services in chemicals companies and manufacturers?
How and where do chemicals companies start implementing digitisation strategies?
15:00-15:20 Flash Talks: Cost, safety, workforce: the Bermuda triangle of self-driving cars
It has been well documented that self-driving vehicles will have an immense impact on individual consumer travel, but it will also greatly impact logistics and supply chain management as well. Why and how will supply chains be impacted? What effect will this have on the current workforce? This session will focus on:
Cost; how much will it cost companies and logistics centres to overhaul their operations and invest in robotic transport systems?
Safety measures; how safe will autonomous B2C delivery and logistics really be? How can companies, and policy makers alike, ensure the safety of personnel and the general public?
Workforce; what effect will the dissemination of robotic transport have on the existing workforce? How do companies and policy makers plan to mitigate the associated lack of employment risk?
15:20-15:45 Lightning Talks: Will trading consolidate into digital marketplaces?
How is digitisation altering specific steps in the value chain, and even optimising the makeup of the chain itself? The marketplace is seeing vibrant innovation in many specific areas; how can these unique innovations be integrated to help create an end-to-end digital value chain that creates unparalleled business opportunities? What are the possibilities for companies when digitisation does not just improve one part of the value chain but optimises multiple aspects of it?
15:45-16:00 Flash Talk: The golden era of robots
Manufacturing automation has been common since the 1970s. Advances in technology, including robotics, big data, machine learning, AI, and the IoT have improved factory production since then. This session will shed insight on robotics trends that are driving the evolution of manufacturing automation.
16:00-16:45 Campfire Talk: Cybersecurity: how sure are we that our business hasn't been hacked?
Digitalisation may render current industrial safety regulations obsolete due to emerging trends that pose new challenges to the management, use and protection of data. In this context, regulation of industrial safety needs constant adoption of innovative approaches to improve effectiveness and invest in building their monitoring capacities for ensuring industrial safety and security. The main challenge for improving cyber security in industry is the lack of information and uncertainty surrounding the possible impact of new human-machine interactions and the potential physical and psychosocial hazards for workers and users of new technology.
How can the international community develop a unified vision on the future of digital safety in industry?
What are the safety standards for the use of digital technology?
Are there platforms and interest groups to raise awareness and share information on specific safety issues?

REVIEW: Scorched: Eros and Psyche - A Myth by Jendela Tryst
By Tina C. Friday, August 28, 2015 // No comments
Book Two of the Origins of Love.
Book Blurb: Love puts trust, loyalty, and faith to the ultimate test.
In order to assuage Aphrodite's wrath, Psyche is forced to wed an ominous, unknown creature. Alone and abandoned, she is taken to a mysterious universe that is both beautiful and deadly.
As Psyche struggles to accept her new life as a prisoner while trying to forget the man who broke her heart, she finds herself drawing closer and closer to the mysterious beast she had been forced to wed.
While Psyche discovers rapturous pleasure and scorching ecstasy, doubt continues to threaten a frail happiness. Will she be able to resist the burning curiosity that surrounds her shrouded world, or will the blaze of temptation ultimately consume her, destroying everything she held dear?
My Review: This book was so much better that the first one. The reader gets to see how Psyche is "sacrificed" to a monstrous creature to become her husband because tragedy keeps striking her village. I really think that was shitty on the part of the villagers to do that to her and on the part of Eros to influence events like that. I get that he was in love with her but damn you don't do that. I love how during the nights that she is at his hidden palace they get to know each other on a more personal level and she ends up falling in love with him even though he hides himself from her in the shadows. Oh and I like how unlike the original myth Ms. Tryst doesn't have them instantly falling in to bed with each other. He respects her enough to wait until she's ready.
I don't like the fact the author left us hanging just when it was getting really interesting. I'll be really glad when book three is released.
Rating: 4½ stars out of 5

Q: Time Varying Potential, series solution Suppose we have a time varying potential $$\left( -\frac{1}{2m}\nabla^2+ V(\vec{r},t)\right)\psi = i\partial_t \psi$$ then I want to know why is the general solution written as $\psi = \displaystyle\sum_n a_n(t)\phi_n(\vec{r})e^{-iE_n t} $ Particularly, why do we get a time dependent coefficient $a_n(t)$. This confuses me because when we have a time independent potential, then we use variable separation and usual method to get the general solution $$\psi = \displaystyle\sum_n a_n\phi_n(\vec{r})e^{-iE_n t}$$ However, the time varying counterpart cannot be reduced this way by variable seperation.
EDIT:
I could not find a free preview of the book I am using, however, the lectures here for example, use the same solution.

A: The basis functions $\phi_n(\vec{r})$ and the energies $E_n$ are the solutions of the stationary Schrödinger equation:
$$
\left( -\frac{1}{2m}\nabla^2+ V_0(\vec{r})\right)\phi_n(\vec{r}) = E_n \phi_n(\vec{r})
$$
If the Hamiltonian depends on time one even can not write this equation.
But the set of functions $\phi_n(\vec{r})$ is a full basis in the Hilbert space.
So one always can expand any function (from this space) over this basis.
The snapshot of the wavefunction $\psi(\vec{r},t)$ at the moment $t$ is just a function of coordinates and the element of this Hilbert space. So we can expand it:
$$
\psi(\vec{r},t) = \sum_n b_n(t) \phi_n(\vec{r})
$$
If the Hamiltonian do not depend on time the expansion coefficients can be easily derived from the general Schrödinger equation (the one with the time derivative):
$$
b_n(t) = a^{(0)}_n e^{-iE_nt}
$$
In the case of time-dependent potential these coefficients are usually considered as unknown functions of time:
$$
b_n(t) = a_n(t) e^{-iE_nt}
$$
The perturbation theory is used to find the approximation for these functions.

A: 1) What OP is looking at is known as time-dependent perturbation theory. Here the energies $E_n$ are eigenvalues for the unperturbed time-independent Hamiltonian $H^{(0)}$. The full Hamiltonian is
$$H(t)~=~H^{(0)}+V(t).$$
2) Imagine for a second that the potential $V$ is time-independent and commutes with $H^{(0)}$. Let $v_n$ be the eigenvalues of $V$. In the time independent case, the wavefunction solution is then of the form
$$\psi(t,\vec{r}) ~=~ \displaystyle\sum_n c_n\phi_n(\vec{r})e^{-i(E_n+v_n) t}
~=~ \displaystyle\sum_n \left(c_n e^{-iv_nt}\right) \phi_n(\vec{r})e^{-iE_n t}.$$
3) For general time-dependent perturbations $V(t)$, it is hence natural to expect that the coefficients $a_n(t)$ in the eigenfunction expansion
$$\psi(t,\vec{r})  ~=~ \displaystyle\sum_n a_n(t)\phi_n(\vec{r})e^{-iE_n t} $$
could depend on time $t$, cf. OP's question(v2). Here $\phi_n(\vec{r})$ denote eigenfunctions for the unperturbed problem,
$$ H^{(0)}\phi_n(\vec{r})~=~E_n\phi_n(\vec{r}).$$

A: It is simply a matter of definition. If the time-dependent coefficients can be reasonably found from the Scroedinger equation, then it is a solution for your time-dependent wave function. It is introducing new variables $a_n (t)$ and determining them from the exact equation. It can always be done.


If you are a German player then you are probably looking for an online casino that offers Giropay. Obviously, you can also deposit with your VISA or Mastercard, or with any other type of depositing method, like Paysafecard, Neteller or Skrill… But let's face it, if you're German then it's generally easier to use this exclusive method. Not to mention the fact that it is also a safer and a more trusted method, of course! Hundreds of euros in purchases and millions of transfers have been made so far. And as if that isn't impressive enough, over one million of these transactions are processed every single month by Giropay GmbH! So, to make a long story short, we certainly can't blame our German friends when they say that they prefer playing at online casinos that accept this particular depositing method. Luckily, most recommended websites do already have it listed as available and that is why you can simply take your pick out of the operators that are advertised here.
If you've used this method before, then you're probably not going to run into any issues while making a deposit at an online casino. Because it works exactly the same as making a purchase on any other website! You can compare it to buying credits which you can use on the many available games, after which you can have those credits paid out to your bank account in the same currency. Here's how it works: First you log into your casino account and go to the deposit page or the deposit window. There you will enter the amount of money you want to transfer, followed by a simple click on the 'Giropay' button. That is where you select your bank, which should automatically transfer you to the login page of your cooperative bank of Sparkasse. On that login page, the transaction data is displayed and you are required to enter your account number, PIN, and either a TAN code or another type of additional security code. Then, once you confirm your payment, the bank will take the money directly from your account and send it to the online casino. That means there is no delay and if there is not enough money in your bank account then the payment will fail. Upon completion, you will get a confirmation by the bank and you are automatically sent back to the website of the online casino where you just made your deposit. That's it!
The manner in which you put the money on your account may somewhat differ per bank of Sparkasse, by the way. Some participating banks will let you use two-factor authentication (for example with an access token), while others will make use enter a PIN code or a TAN code in order to complete the transaction. Either way, there are plenty of measures to prevent fraud when you are using Giropay. Not to mention the fact that you are also protecting your financial information to a much greater extent! Because when you make a deposit with Giropay, the casino will simply receive the money from that system without getting any additional information, like for example your credit card or giro card number. And that means you can put money in your online casino account in a more anonymous manner, while taking it directly from your personal bank account!

Portland Oregon American Legion Post Challenges Schools Military Counter-Recruiter Policy
Submitted by Attorney Rees Lloyd
Wartime veterans of American Legion Portland Post 1 have voted to adopt a resolution opposing and calling for rescission of the Portland School Board's recently adopted policy
granting "equal access" to anti-military, "counter-recruiters," including self-declared "revolutionary" organizations, in Portland Schools at "Career Day" and other forums at which military recruiters have access to students pursuant to law.
The resolution of American Legion Portland Post 1 charges that the Portland School Board's policy should be rescinded because it constitutes unconstitutional "view point" discrimination by the School Board's creating and granting speech and expression rights in forums in the schools only to anti-military and/or pro-revolutionary organizations, while denying the same rights to pro-military, patriotic organizations like the American Legion and other veterans organizations.
Therefore, the resolution calls on the Portland School Board to rescind the policy. If the School Board refuses to rescind the policy, then it should grant "equal access" to representatives of American Legion Post 1 to counter the anti-military, and/or pro-revolutionary "counter-recruiters" favored by the school board.
More specifically, the resolution adopted by unanimous vote at American Legion Portland Post 1's general membership meeting on February 15, 2012, provides in the resolved clauses:
RESOLVED, that American Legion Post No. 1, Portland, Oregon, opposes and calls for the rescission of the policy of the Board of Education of the Portland Unified School District known as "Providing Equal Access To Military Counter-Recruiters in High Schools," established by Board Revised Resolution No. 4503, on the basis that said policy on its face constitutes unconstitutional view point discrimination by allowing equal access for expressive activity only to anti-military and/or pro-revolutionary organizations based on their viewpoint as "Military Counter Recruiters," while that policy upon its face denies equal access to recruitment forums by pro-military, patriotic organizations, including the wartime veterans of American Legion Post 1 based on their view point.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that if the Board of Education refuses to rescind its policy based upon view point discrimination, that the Board of Education should grant to The American Legion Post 1 equal access and equal right to engage in speech and expressive activity as is granted to anti-military and/or "revolutionary" organizations designated as "Military Counter Recruiters" and hand-picked by the Board based upon point of view.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Post 1 Adjutant is directed to transmit this Resolution to the Board of Education of the Portland Unified School District, and to each officer and member of said Board of Education, each of whom is responsible for the establishment and maintenance of the discriminatory and unconstitutional non-"Equal Access" policy based upon point of view challenged by American Legion Post 1.
The Portland School Board adopted its Resolution 4503, "Providing Equal Access To Military Counter-Recruiters in High Schools, in September, 2011. It states that its purpose is "to ensure that our students have complete and accurate information about committing to military service…," (Recitals, Section B). But it acts to provide "accurate information" by allowing "equal access" to students in recruitment forums solely and only to anti-military and/or pro-revolutionary organizations, and not to pro-military and/or patriotic organizations. That is, more specifically, the resolution provides:
"In furtherance of this, Portland Public Schools will allow counter-recruiters to have access to high school students whenever it permits military recruiters to speak with students regarding military service career opportunities. Similarly, if literature encouraging military service is displayed for students to read or pick up, counter-recruiter literature may be displayed as well." (Recitals, Section C; emphasis supplied.)
Besides limiting "equal access" to "counter-recruiters, only, the School Board's policy provides for propaganda of anti-military, and/or pro-revolutionary organizations to be distributed by the schools not only to students, but to parents.
More specifically, the policy provides: "Each high school should be provided a packet of information from counter-recruiters about military service, including information for parents and students on their rights to privacy from military recruiters, information about the practices of military recruiters and the full range of service opportunities upon graduation. (Recitals, Sec. D; Resolution Sec. 1; emphasis added).
As to whom the School Board policy grants "equal access" and rights of speech and expression in recruitment forums inside the schools, the Board's Resolution No. 4503 makes clear on its face that those rights are granted only onto those hand-picked individuals and organizations with whose view point the School Board agrees, to the exclusion of all others.
More specially, the Board's policy states : "In order to further ensure that students have access to critical information about military service, the Board also directs the Superintendent to provide equal access to counter recruiters. 'Counter recruiters' include organizations that have a local presence and an established practice of providing information to students about military service and career alternatives, such as the American Friends Service Committee, Military & Draft Counseling Project, Recruiter Watch PDX, and Veterans for Peace, or other such organizations that wish to present information regarding military service."
Thus, all the organizations to be granted equal access and speech and expressive rights are anti-military, and/or pro-revolutionary organizations, to the exclusion of pro-military, patriotic organizations like American Legion Portland Post 1 which has "a local presence and an established practice of providing information to students about military service and career opportunities…"
It is significant, I believe, that in identifying the organizations who would meet the board's "counter-recruiter" limitation, the Board failed to include the War Resisters League, which was a leader in pushing for the "equal access" policy, whose representative testified for its adoption, and which openly identifies itself on its website not as merely anti-military, but as a self-declared "revolutionary organization," seeking the overthrow of the United States' form of government, albeit by allegedly "non-violent" means.
Thus, it is manifest that the Portland School Board has established a blatantly discriminatory and patently unconstitutional policy granting speech and expressive rights in the in-school forums solely based upon the "point of view" of the recipients of those rights, including even the pro-revolutionary anti-military "counter-recruiters."
As a longtime constitutional attorney, veteran, and a Life Member of The American Legion, I testified, as an individual, against adoption of the policy at the School Board at its meeting at which the vote was taken. I objected that, in my opinion, the policy is facially unconstitutional as "view point" discrimination, and would lead to costly and unnecessarily litigation.
Indeed, even the "Oregonian," while not calling for immediate rescission, criticized the School Boards' adoption of the "equal access" for "counter-recruiters" only policy as unwise.
Now, the veterans of American Legion Portland Post 1 have taken a stand against and challenged the School Board's "counter-recruiter" policy, calling for its rescission; or, failing that, inclusion of representatives of American Legion Portland Post 1 in the recruitment forums.
Those wartime veterans of American Legion Portland Post 1 should be respected, listened to, and not further insulted and slapped in the face by the Portland School Board members' discriminatory and unconstitutional policy granting equal access and speech rights in recruitment forums to "counter-recruiters" only, including those openly declaring themselves to be "revolutionaries."
[Rees Lloyd, longtime civil rights lawyer, veterans activist, and American Legionnaire, is the author of the resolution unanimously adopted by American Legion Portland Post 1.]

With the development of computer and Internet, more and more people spend lots of time at the keyboard. Having a proper computer desk is an absolute essential.
Computer desks on the market range from simple tabletop surfaces to large pieces of furniture that incorporate storage and shelves for computer accessories. They can be very expensive if made from quality wood, having storage units or being adjustable and ergonomic.
If you are searching for a budget and quality computer desk for your home office, making your own computer desk can be a good way to save money while building the desk that is perfect for your needs. With a few carpentry skills, a few pieces of wood and old furniture you already have, you can build a quality computer desk to fit your needs.

Q: Calling Scipy special functions from Pyodide in Node.js I have Node v18.13.0, I have run npm install  -D "pyodide@>=0.21.0-alpha.2", and am running the following code (put it in a file called test.js and run node test.js):
var {loadPyodide} = require("pyodide");

(async function main() {
  // setup

  var pyodide = await loadPyodide();
  await pyodide.loadPackage("micropip")
  const micropip = pyodide.pyimport("micropip");
  await micropip.install('scipy')
  var scipy = await pyodide.loadPackage("scipy");
  var numpy = await pyodide.loadPackage("numpy");

  // imports
  pyodide.runPython('import numpy as np')
  pyodide.runPython('import scipy.special')
  pyodide.runPython('import scipy.special as sp')
  pyodide.runPython('from scipy.special import betaln, beta as betafn')

  // testing with JavaScript arguments
  var x = pyodide.globals.get('np').ones(pyodide.toPy([3, 3])).toJs()
  console.log(x) // works!
  var x = pyodide.globals.get('np').exp(pyodide.toPy([3])).toJs()
  console.log(x) // works!

  // don't work?
  try {
    var x = pyodide.globals.get('sp').beta(pyodide.toPy([3.1, 3.1])).toJs()
    console.log(x)
  } catch (e) { console.log('thats a nope') }

  try {
    var x = pyodide.globals.get('scipy.special').beta(pyodide.toPy([3, 2])).toJs()
    console.log(x)
  } catch (e) { console.log('thats a nope') }

  try {
    var x = pyodide.globals.get('betaln')(pyodide.toPy([3, 2])).toJs()
    console.log(x)
  } catch (e) { console.log('thats a nope') }

  // testing inside Python works fine
  pyodide.runPython('print(sp.beta(3, 2))')
  pyodide.runPython('print(scipy.special.beta(3, 2))')
  pyodide.runPython('print(betaln(3, 2))')
})()

A lot of this script works! After printing some preliminary stuff like
Loading micropip, pyparsing, packaging
Loaded pyparsing, packaging, micropip
Loading scipy, numpy, clapack
Loaded clapack, numpy, scipy
scipy already loaded from default channel
No new packages to load
numpy already loaded from default channel
No new packages to load

I see the call to np.ones and np.exp working:
[
  Float64Array(3) [ 1, 1, 1 ],
  Float64Array(3) [ 1, 1, 1 ],
  Float64Array(3) [ 1, 1, 1 ]
]
Float64Array(1) [ 20.085536923187668 ]

So far so good, I can call Numpy functions. But I encounter exceptions when calling the Scipy special functions beta or betaln. All three of my attempts fail, throwing an exception:

*

*pyodide.globals.get('sp').beta(pyodide.toPy([3, 2])).toJs()

*pyodide.globals.get('scipy.special').beta(pyodide.toPy([3, 2])).toJs()

*pyodide.globals.get('betaln')(pyodide.toPy([3, 2])).toJs()
I know all three of these should work because I can run them inside pyodide.runPython at the end of my function just fine. So I'm just unable to transfer the examples from Numpy to Scipy.
(My eventual goal is to have an anonymous function in JavaScript to spicy.special.beta, which ordinary JavaScript code can call with JavaScript numbers.)
How can I adapt the above code to successfully call these Scipy functions? Where am I going wrong?
