Q: How do I use PHP sessions and implement basic ACLs? I have been Googling session variables.  As I understand it, I can use them to capture such things as username and other data.
I would like to be able to use the data in order to store the username of the last person to change the record of a particular field. Additionally, I would like to be able to limit what a particular user sees on the site. For instance, if a user generates a work order I would like that user to be limited to seeing only the work orders he/she creates and no one else's.
I'm very new at all of this and I don't have a enough understanding to even write some code you might correct for me.  How can I send the data stored in the session variable as $_GET or $_POST? If I have it in that format I can use it in the query (I think).

*

*I have a table called "work_orders" with a field called "updated_by". I would like to be able to store the ID of the last person who updated the record.

*I would also like to add privileges to the work orders so that users can only view records created by particular users.

This is a project I undertook in my first year web design class. In the class are some students who think it is funny to see how much damage they can do to the work of others. This is the reason I would like to be able to limit them to accessing only the work orders they generate.

A: You seem to be mixing your questions here.
Firstly, where is your database? If it were - for instance - MySQl, then you need to add an extra column to the work order table (and others. Personally, I like to add timestamp column to, for auditing porpoises) .
I prefer POST over GET because 1) it can hold more data and 2) it's not so easy for the user to tamper with.
So, if you have a form with an input field declared
<form>

Name:

(see http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp)
You can access $_POST['user_name'] e.g
$sql = 'INSERT INTO work_order_table (user_name, ... <other column names>) VALUES($_POST['user_name'], .. <other values>)
I woudl recommend you to get a good book (cheap enough second had) or online tutorial and work your way through.
Pleas let me know if I missed anything or if anything is not clear. Good luck!

Since you are concerend about school kids screwing with your datbase
1) google for how to make MySql more secure
2) hint this will involve prepared staments
3) use POST, rather than get, so that you have urls like http://192.1.68.1.1/application rather than http://192.1.68.1.1/application?user=smith which tempt users to muck around with the URl "just to see what happens" (probably more of a danger than SQL injection at school level, but ... you never know
4) hit the libbrary for soemthign like O'Reilly's PHP & MySql for Dummies in 24 hours for complete idiot beginners - or find a god online tutorial
5) "I would like to be able to limit that particular user to viewing only the work orders they generated" READ up on WHERE in SQL SELECT
6) change the MySql root password - or even add anew user with root-like access then delete root
7) make sure that no student has acess to the server, lest they look at the PHP and see your MySql user & password

A: You might want to start by reading or watching a video tutorial that will help you better understand how and when to use session variables. The data that you store in the session won't stick around forever, so you will need to store most information in a database.
Here is what most people do: Once the user signs into the application, you put their user id into the session. This way, you know who they are. The server uses a cookie to make this bit of magic happen and when the user closes their browser, the server will forget who they are and the session data will be lost. So, in this example, the session is just keeping track of who the user is.
To store information about who last edited a field, you will probably want to use a database to store that information. There is no use in storing that information in a session variable.

Tyler Perry's 'Random Act of Kindness' in New Orleans Today
Stephanie Crist Published: April 8, 2020
Filmmaker, actor, and New Orleans native Tyler Perry has once again stepped up to the plate in a big way. His 'Random Acts of Kindness' paid for groceries during designated senior hours at 29 Winn Dixie Grocery Stores in New Orleans, and 44 Kroger stores in Atlanta this morning. The hours have been set aside by many stores for those with disabilities, senior citizens, or those who are high risk during the coronavirus pandemic.
NOLA.com reports that senior shoppers were given a piece of paper that said 'Random Act of Kindness' upon entering the store, and told to bring it to the register when they were ready to check out. The bill was then paid for by Perry. What an amazing act of kindness and generosity! One of the recipients wanted to pay it forward, so she made a donation to Second Harvest Food Bank in Perry's name. See her Facebook post in the Where Nola Eats group below.
'This morning at WinnDixie on Tchoupitoulas during the senior hour, I got my cart and one wipe and at the front entrance, the manager, I think, was passing out little pieces of paper. On the paper it said "a random act of kindness" and he said to give it to your cashier. So, after getting my last minute perishable Passover items, I waited on the six foot dots and when it was my turn, I greeted the new checker (shift change) and handed her my piece of paper. The machine was having trouble logging her in, but I was patient and happily bagged my groceries as she scanned them to save time. When she was done, she asked me "Do you know who Tyler Perry is?" "Yeah, I know who he is." I said. "Well," she said, "he just paid for your groceries as his random act of kindness." "Really?" I said as my eyes teared up, thanking her as she handed my my receipt. Thank you Tyler Perry! To pay it forward, I made a donation in your honor to Second Harvest Food Bank for what would have been the cost of my groceries today. 🙏❤'

UNICEF handed over 223 refrigerated vehicles to the Government of Uzbekistan
https://www.unicef.org/eca/unicef-handed-over-223-refrigerated-vehicles-government-uzbekistan
Today, UNICEF handed over 223 refrigerated vehicles to the Government of Uzbekistan. The vehicles support the Government's efforts to strengthen the country's immunization cold chain and will ensure vaccines are kept at optimal cold temperatures needed to retain their effectiveness when are delivered to regional and district health centres across the country. Uzbekistan's Deputy Prime Minister, Mr. Behzod Musaevm, accompanied by the Minister of Health, Dr. Abdukhakim Khadjibaev, presided over the handover ceremony was, noted that the consignment of vehicles was timely. Earlier, the Government of Uzbekistan had announced the first shipment of AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines, was due to arrive in coming days. UNICEF Representative, Mr. Munir Mammadzade said, "The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated UNICEF's push for to make vaccines available to all within the framework of the Health System Strengthening Programme." The vehicles are valued at more than USD 2 million and was supported by the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI). Over the last 3 years UNICEF and partners have invested nearly USD 20 million to support the Ministry of Health to strengthen the country's national immunization programme. UNICEF supported the construction of vaccine warehouses at national, regional and district levels, helped procure and install cold rooms, freezers and refrigerators, and vehicles to transport of vaccine. As well, UNICEF supported the Ministry of Health in the development of Uzbekistan's vaccine logistic management information system. The current efforts are historically significant and will improve the national immunization system and in the context of COVID-19 vaccination roll-out, and well beyond. COVAX is co-led by Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), working in partnership with UNICEF as well as the World Bank, civil society organisations, manufacturers, and others.
Statement by UNICEF Executive Director Henrietta Fore on the disruption of immunization and basic health services due to the COVID-19 pandemic
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/statement-unicef-executive-director-henrietta-fore-disruption-immunization-and-basic
: "Around the world, the COVID-19 pandemic is overstretching health services as health workers are diverted to support the response. "Physical distancing is leading parents to make the difficult decision to defer routine immunization. "Medical goods are in short supply and supply chains are under historic strain due to transport disruptions. Flight cancellations and trade restrictions by countries have severely constrained access to essential medicines, including vaccines. "As the pandemic progresses, critical life-saving services, including immunization, will likely be disrupted, especially in Africa, Asia and the Middle East where they are sorely needed. "At the greatest risk are children from the poorest families in countries affected by conflicts and natural disasters. "We are particularly concerned about countries that are battling measles, cholera or polio outbreaks while responding to COVID-19 cases, such as Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, the Philippines, Syria and South Sudan. Not only would such outbreaks tax already stretched health services, they could also lead to additional loss of lives and suffering. At a time like this, these countries can ill-afford to face additional outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases. "The message is clear: We must not allow lifesaving health interventions to fall victim to our efforts to address COVID-19. "UNICEF is committed to supporting basic health care and immunization needs in the worst affected countries, and to doing so in a way that limits the risk of COVID-19 transmission. We are working hard to ensure adequate vaccine supplies are available in countries that need them. We are in close communication with global vaccine suppliers to ensure production is not disrupted and supply is managed in the best possible manner under these difficult circumstances. We are also providing greater support to governments to continue the supply of vaccines during this pandemic. "In the days to come, governments may have to temporarily postpone preventive mass vaccination campaigns in many places to ensure that the delivery of immunization services does not contribute to COVID-19 spread, and to follow recommendations on physical distancing. "UNICEF strongly recommends that all governments begin rigorous planning now to intensify immunization activities once the COVID -19 pandemic is under control. These vaccination activities must focus on children who will miss vaccine doses during this period of interruption and prioritize the poorest and most vulnerable children. To successfully roll-out vaccines against COVID -19 when they become available, we need to ensure that our immunization programmes remain robust and can reach those that will need these vaccines the most. "Immunization remains a life-saving health intervention. As the world's biggest buyer and supplier of vaccines, UNICEF will continue to play a pivotal role in supporting governments' current and future immunization efforts."

Vaccinations with a smile in Uzbekistan
https://www.unicef.org/eca/stories/vaccinations-smile-uzbekistan
Baby Imona is visiting the clinic, but there is no fear or tension, because Nurse Aziza Abduazimova knows how to put her and her parents at ease. Aziza's open face and sweet, cheerful manner make all of the children she meets comfortable. "I always meet babies with a smile. Then I answer all of the parents' questions about vaccinations so that they feel they can trust me with their child's health. I make the child comfortable, and chat and play with them. I use toys to create a relationship before vaccinating them." Aziza has been immunising children at Polyclinic #47 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan for six years now. She says that she loves her job. "I'm a mother myself. I have three sons aged 15, 12 and 10 years old who are all vaccinated and growing up healthy. I didn't have a moment's hesitation in getting my children vaccinated, and I am happy to help other mothers raise strong and healthy kids." Aziza believes that it's much better to vaccinate a child and prevent a disease than treat the sometimes-serious consequences of an illness. "Polio can cause permanent paralysis. Mumps, a common childhood disease, can make boys infertile, and measles can be fatal. It's not just the consequences for the individual, either. A child who hasn't been vaccinated is putting everyone else at risk, including babies and unvaccinated adults." Nurse Aziza Abduazimova administers the polio vaccine to baby Imona. Nurse Aziza Abduazimova administers the polio vaccine to baby Imona. However, despite all the evidence about the safety of vaccines to prevent serious disease, some parents are still hesitant. "It's a natural urge for a mother to protect her baby, and some mothers are scared to cause their baby the pain of an injection," Aziza says. "Believe me, when I first started this job, I used to cry along with the babies, but then I realised that by causing this brief moment of pain, I'm preventing a lot of future suffering." Some parents read things on the internet that scare them. Aziza says, "I follow a lot of discussions on the web and I often post evidence to prove that they needn't worry. All the vaccines used in Uzbekistan meet international standards." Aziza recalls a young mother who didn't vaccinate her first son. "He got every childhood disease, one after the other, including Hepatitis A. With my encouragement she decided to vaccinate her younger son. He has grown up very healthy. Now when people see them together, they assume the younger one is older because he wasn't sick as often, he's so much taller and stronger than his brother. His mother tells everyone her story. She says, 'If I'd had my older son vaccinated, I wouldn't have gone through all these troubles.'" Aziza helps parents who have concerns about vaccinations to meet mothers and fathers with children who have been fully immunised. "Peer to peer conversations are really helpful because parents trust fellow parents and they can see the results." She believes being a good vaccinator isn't just about following procedures but having the right attitude: "There was one lady who came from outside our clinic's catchment area. She was surprised to find me so cheerful and friendly. In her previous experiences staff had been professional, but she told me my friendliness has made such a difference to her children; now they feel at ease during and after vaccinations. It makes such a difference how you treat people." "Children pick up a lot from how you deal with them—they connect with a smile." - adds Aziza. Nurse Aziza puts baby Imona at ease with a toy after administering a vaccine. With toys and smiles, baby Imona is at ease after receiving a vaccine. "My main message to parents would be to follow the vaccination calendar. Don't wait or delay; it has been developed to protect against the most common diseases in this country and vaccinating on time gives your child the best protection." Aziza gives baby Imona a last cuddle. She smiles, "Parents share the hope that their child will grow up healthy. In my work as a vaccinator, I can help make that happen." UNICEF in Uzbekistan trains health professionals across the country to vaccinate children and works closely with the Government to ensure the vaccine system is safe and can reach all children with life-saving immunizations.
Measles cases spike globally due to gaps in vaccination coverage: New report
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/measles-cases-spike-globally-due-gaps-vaccination-coverage-new-report
Reported measles cases spiked in 2017, as multiple countries experienced severe and protracted outbreaks of the disease. This is according to a new report published today by leading health organizations. Because of gaps in vaccination coverage, measles outbreaks occurred in all regions, while there were an estimated 110 000 deaths related to the disease. Using updated disease modelling data, the report provides the most comprehensive estimates of measles trends over the last 17 years. It shows that since 2000, over 21 million lives have been saved through measles immunizations. However, reported cases increased by more than 30 percent worldwide from 2016. The Americas, the Eastern Mediterranean Region, and Europe experienced the greatest upsurges in cases in 2017, with the Western Pacific the only World Health Organization (WHO) region where measles incidence fell. "The resurgence of measles is of serious concern, with extended outbreaks occurring across regions, and particularly in countries that had achieved, or were close to achieving measles elimination," said Dr Soumya Swaminathan, Deputy Director General for Programmes at WHO. "Without urgent efforts to increase vaccination coverage and identify populations with unacceptable levels of under-, or unimmunized children, we risk losing decades of progress in protecting children and communities against this devastating, but entirely preventable disease." Measles is a serious and highly contagious disease. It can cause debilitating or fatal complications, including encephalitis (an infection that leads to swelling of the brain), severe diarrhoea and dehydration, pneumonia, ear infections and permanent vision loss. Babies and young children with malnutrition and weak immune systems are particularly vulnerable to complications and death. The disease is preventable through two doses of a safe and effective vaccine. For several years, however, global coverage with the first dose of measles vaccine has stalled at 85 percent. This is far short of the 95 percent needed to prevent outbreaks, and leaves many people, in many communities, susceptible to the disease. Second dose coverage stands at 67 percent. "The increase in measles cases is deeply concerning, but not surprising," said Dr Seth Berkley, CEO of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. "Complacency about the disease and the spread of falsehoods about the vaccine in Europe, a collapsing health system in Venezuela and pockets of fragility and low immunization coverage in Africa are combining to bring about a global resurgence of measles after years of progress. Existing strategies need to change: more effort needs to go into increasing routine immunization coverage and strengthening health systems. Otherwise we will continue chasing one outbreak after another." Responding to the recent outbreaks, health agencies are calling for sustained investment in immunization systems, alongside efforts to strengthen routine vaccination services. These efforts must focus especially on reaching the poorest, most marginalized communities, including people affected by conflict and displacement. The agencies also call for actions to build broad-based public support for immunizations, while tackling misinformation and hesitancy around vaccines where these exist. "Sustained investments are needed to strengthen immunization service delivery and to use every opportunity for delivering vaccines to those who need them," said Dr Robert Linkins, Branch Chief of Accelerated Disease Control and Vaccine Preventable Disease Surveillance at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Measles & Rubella Initiative Management Team Chair. The Measles and Rubella Initiative is a partnership formed in 2001 of the American Red Cross, CDC, the United Nations Foundation, UNICEF, and WHO.

What are vaccines? Vaccines are products that are usually given in childhood to protect against serious, often deadly diseases. By stimulating your body's natural defenses, they prepare your body to fight the disease faster and more effectively. How do vaccines work? Vaccines help your immune system fight infections more efficiently by sparking your immune response to specific diseases. Then, if the virus or bacteria ever invades your body in the future, your immune system will already know how to fight it. Are vaccines safe? Vaccines are very safe. Your child is far more likely to be hurt by a vaccine-preventable disease than by a vaccine. All vaccines go through rigorous safety testing, including clinical trials, before they are approved for the public. Countries will only register and distribute vaccines that meet rigorous quality and safety standards. Why should I vaccinate my child? Vaccines save lives. Measles vaccines alone are estimated to have prevented over 21 million deaths between 2000 and 2017. Vaccines will help protect your child against diseases that can cause serious harm or death, especially in people with developing immune systems like infants. It's important to vaccinate your child. If not, highly contagious diseases such as measles, diphtheria and polio, which were once wiped out in many countries, will come back. Can my baby handle all of these vaccines? Yes. Many parents worry that multiple vaccines will overload their child's immune system. But children are exposed to hundreds of germs every day. In fact, a common cold or sore throat will put a greater burden on your child's immune system than vaccines. But these diseases are not present in my community. Do I still need to vaccinate my child? Yes. Although the diseases may be eliminated in your country or region, our increasingly interconnected world means that these diseases could spread from areas where they are still present. What is herd immunity? If enough people in your community are immunized against a certain disease, you can reach something called herd immunity. When this happens, diseases can't spread easily from person to person because most people are immune. This provides a layer of protection against the disease even for those who cannot be vaccinated, such as infants. Herd immunity also prevents outbreaks by making it difficult for the disease to spread. The disease will become more and more rare, sometimes even disappearing entirely from the community. Can a vaccine cause my baby to get sick? Vaccines are extremely safe and serious side effects are rare. Almost all sickness or discomfort after vaccination is minor and temporary, such as a soreness at the injection site or mild fever. These can often be controlled by taking over-the-counter pain medication as advised by a doctor, or applying a cold cloth to the injection site. If parents are concerned, they should contact their doctor or health care provider. Extensive studies and research show that there is no evidence of a link between vaccines and autism. What diseases do vaccines prevent? Vaccines protect your child against serious illnesses like polio, which can cause paralysis; measles, which can cause brain swelling and blindness; and tetanus, which can cause painful muscle contractions and difficulty eating and breathing, especially in newborns. For a list of the most common vaccines and the diseases they prevent, see this list of the most common vaccines and the diseases they prevent . Can I delay the vaccine schedule? One of the best ways you can protect your child is to follow the recommended vaccine schedule in your country. Any time you delay a vaccine, you're increasing your child's vulnerability to disease. Can I let my child get the chickenpox instead of getting the vaccine? Although chickenpox is a mild disease that many parents will remember from childhood (the vaccine was introduced in 1995), some children will develop serious cases with complications that can be fatal or cause permanent disabilities. The vaccine eliminates the risk of complications from the disease, and prevents children from infecting their siblings, friends and classmates. What is the recommended vaccine schedule? Immunization schedules vary by country depending on which diseases are most prevalent. You can find an overview of the recommended vaccines and approximate dates from your local health centre, doctor or your government's Ministry of Health. >> Learn more about immunization >> World Immunization Week
Over 20 million children worldwide missed out on measles vaccine annually in past 8 years, creating a pathway to current global outbreaks - UNICEF
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/over-20-million-children-worldwide-missed-out-measles-vaccine-annually-past-8-years
– An estimated 169 million children missed out on the first dose of the measles vaccine between 2010 and 2017, or 21.1 million children a year on average, UNICEF said today. Widening pockets of unvaccinated children have created a pathway to the measles outbreaks hitting several countries around the world today. "The ground for the global measles outbreaks we are witnessing today was laid years ago," said Henrietta Fore, UNICEF Executive Director. "The measles virus will always find unvaccinated children. If we are serious about averting the spread of this dangerous but preventable disease, we need to vaccinate every child, in rich and poor countries alike." In the first three months of 2019, more than 110,000 measles cases were reported worldwide – up nearly 300 per cent from the same period last year. An estimated 110,000 people, most of them children, died from measles in 2017, a 22 per cent increase from the year before. Two doses of the measles vaccine are essential to protect children from the disease. However, due to lack of access, poor health systems, complacency, and in some cases fear or skepticism about vaccines, the global coverage of the first dose of the measles vaccine was reported at 85 per cent in 2017, a figure that has remained relatively constant over the last decade despite population growth. Global coverage for the second dose is much lower, at 67 per cent. The World Health Organization recommends a threshold of 95 per cent immunization coverage to achieve so-called 'herd immunity'.
UNICEF launches #VaccinesWork campaign to inspire support for vaccines
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/unicef-launches-vaccineswork-campaign-inspire-support-vaccines
– UNICEF is launching a new global campaign on 24 April to emphasize the power and safety of vaccines among parents and wider social media users. The campaign will run alongside World Immunization Week from 24 to 30 April to spread the message that together communities, including parents, can protect everyone through vaccines. #VaccinesWork has long been used to bring together immunization advocates online. This year, UNICEF is partnering with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation , the World Health Organization (WHO), and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance to encourage even greater reach. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will contribute USD$ 1 to UNICEF for every like or share of social media posts using the hashtag #VaccinesWork in April, up to USD$1 million, to ensure all children get the life-saving vaccines they need. Vaccines save up to 3 million lives yearly, protecting children from potentially deadly, highly infectious diseases such as measles, pneumonia, cholera, and diphtheria. Thanks to vaccines, fewer people died from measles between 2000 and 2017 and polio is on the verge of being eradicated. Vaccines are one of the most cost-effective health tool ever invented – every USD$1 spent on childhood immunization returns up to USD$44 in benefits. "We want the awareness that #VaccinesWork to go viral," said Robin Nandy, UNICEF's Chief of Immunization. "Vaccines are safe, and they save lives. This campaign is an opportunity to show the world that social media can be a powerful force for change and provide parents with trustworthy information on vaccines." The campaign is part of a global, week-long celebration under the theme, Protected Together: Vaccines Work , to honour Vaccine Heroes – from parents and community members to health workers and innovators. "More children than ever before are being reached with vaccines today," said Violaine Mitchell, Interim Director of Vaccine Delivery at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. "We are delighted to work with UNICEF and all the global and country partners around the world who are working tirelessly to ensure all children, especially those in the world's poorest countries, can be protected from life-threatening infectious diseases." Despite the benefits of vaccines, an estimated 1.5 million children died of vaccine-preventable diseases in 2017. While this is often due to lack of access to vaccines, in some countries, families are delaying or refusing to vaccinate their children because of complacency or skepticism about vaccines. This has resulted in several outbreaks, including an alarming surge in measles, especially in higher-income countries. Uncertainty about vaccines on digital and social media platforms is one of the factors driving this trend. That is why the centerpiece of this UNICEF campaign is a 60-second animated film, "Dangers," which, along with illustrated animations for social media posts and posters, is based on the relatable insight that kids, by their very nature, are little daredevils who are constantly putting themselves in danger. Available in Arabic, Chinese, French, Hindi, Russian, Spanish and Tagalog, the video explains that while parents can't prevent all the dangers their kids get themselves into, they can use vaccination to help prevent the dangers that get into their kids. In addition, UNICEF experts will be answering questions about vaccination, including how vaccines work, how they are tested, why children should receive vaccines, as well as the risks of not vaccinating children in a timely manner. Additional quotes from campaign supporters: Angélique Kidjo, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and Grammy Award-Winning Singer: "Today nine in ten children receive immunizations, but we cannot leave anyone behind. We must reach every child with life-saving vaccines." Maisa Silva , 16-year-old, Brazilian TV hostess and actress: "I accepted the invitation to participate in this campaign because I know the importance of vaccines for children's health. It is a way to protect children from various hazards we already know. Health is a very serious matter and we must not forget that vaccines work and are necessary. " ###
20 million children miss out on lifesaving measles, diphtheria and tetanus vaccines in 2018
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/20-million-children-miss-out-lifesaving-measles-diphtheria-and-tetanus-vaccines-2018
– 20 million children worldwide – more than 1 in 10 – missed out on lifesaving vaccines such as measles, diphtheria and tetanus in 2018, according to new data from WHO and UNICEF. Globally, since 2010, vaccination coverage with three doses of diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DTP3) and one dose of the measles vaccine has stalled at around 86 percent. While high, this is not sufficient. 95 percent coverage is needed – globally, across countries, and communities - to protect against outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases. "Vaccines are one of our most important tools for preventing outbreaks and keeping the world safe," said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization. "While most children today are being vaccinated, far too many are left behind. Unacceptably, it's often those who are most at risk– the poorest, the most marginalized, those touched by conflict or forced from their homes - who are persistently missed." Most unvaccinated children live in the poorest countries, and are disproportionately in fragile or conflict-affected states. Almost half are in just 16 countries - Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Ethiopia, Haiti, Iraq, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. If these children do get sick, they are at risk of the severest health consequences, and least likely to access lifesaving treatment and care. Measles outbreaks reveal entrenched gaps in coverage, often over many years. Stark disparities in vaccine access persist across and within countries of all income levels. This has resulted in devastating measles outbreaks in many parts of the world – including countries that have high overall vaccination rates. In 2018, almost 350,000 measles cases were reported globally, more than doubling from 2017. "Measles is a real time indicator of where we have more work to do to fight preventable diseases," said Henrietta Fore, UNICEF's Executive Director. "Because measles is so contagious, an outbreak points to communities that are missing out on vaccines due to access, costs or, in some places, complacency. We have to exhaust every effort to immunize every child." Ten countries with highest reported incidence rate of measles cases (2018) Coverage with measles first dose (2010) Coverage with measles first dose (2018) 1. Ukraine 56 91 2. Democratic Republic of Congo 74 80 3. Madagascar 66 62 4. Liberia 65 91 5. Somalia 46 46 6. Serbia 95 92 7. Georgia 94 98 8. Albania 99 96 9. Yemen 68 64 10. Romania 95 90 Ukraine leads a varied list of countries with the highest reported incidence rate of measles in 2018. While the country has now managed to vaccinate over 90 percent of its infants, coverage had been low for several years, leaving a large number of older children and adults at risk. Several other countries with high incidence and high coverage have significant groups of people who have missed the measles vaccine in the past. This shows how low coverage over time or discrete communities of unvaccinated people can spark deadly outbreaks. Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine coverage data available for the first time For the first time, there is also data on the coverage of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, which protects girls against cervical cancer later in life. As of 2018, 90 countries – home to 1 in 3 girls worldwide - had introduced the HPV vaccine into their national programmes. Just 13 of these are lower-income countries. This leaves those most at risk of the devastating impacts of cervical cancer still least likely to have access to the vaccine. Together with partners like Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, WHO and UNICEF are supporting countries to strengthen their immunization systems and outbreak response, including by vaccinating all children with routine immunization, conducting emergency campaigns, and training and equipping health workers as an essential part of quality primary healthcare. ###### For photos and broll, please click here .

About the data Since 2000, WHO and UNICEF jointly produce national immunization coverage estimates for Member States on an annual basis. In addition to producing the immunization coverage estimates for 2018, the WHO and UNICEF estimation process revises the entire historical series of immunization data with the latest available information. The 2018 revision covers 39 years of coverage estimates, from 1980 to 2018. DTP3 coverage is used as an indicator to assess the proportion of children vaccinated and is calculated for children under one year of age. The estimated number of vaccinated children are calculated using population data provided by the 2019 World Population Prospects (WPP) from the UN.

WHO and UNICEF warn of a decline in vaccinations during COVID-19
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/who-and-unicef-warn-decline-vaccinations-during-covid-19
– The World Health Organization and UNICEF warned today of an alarming decline in the number of children receiving life-saving vaccines around the world. This is due to disruptions in the delivery and uptake of immunization services caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. According to new data by WHO and UNICEF , these disruptions threaten to
UNICEF begins shipping syringes for the global rollout of COVID-19 vaccines under COVAX
https://www.unicef.org/eca/press-releases/unicef-begins-shipping-syringes-global-rollout-covid-19-vaccines-under-covax
– UNICEF has sent 100,000 syringes and 1,000 safety boxes for COVID-19 vaccinations to the Maldives by air freight from UNICEF's humanitarian warehouse in Dubai—part of the first wave of COVID-19-related syringe shipments to begin rolling out in the coming days. Others in the first wave of shipments include Côte d'Ivoire and São Tomé and Príncipe. The 0.5 ml syringes and safety boxes are expected to arrive in Malé, Maldives on Tuesday. Over the next few weeks, UNICEF will ship more than 14.5 million 0.5 ml and 0.3 ml auto-disable syringes to more than 30 countries. While the 0.5 ml syringes are meant for use with the Serum Institute of India/AstraZeneca vaccine, the 0.3 ml ones are to be used with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine. "In this global fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, syringes are as vital as the vaccine itself," said UNICEF Executive Director Henrietta Fore. "It is critical to have adequate supplies of syringes already in place in every country before the vaccine arrives so that the vaccine can be administered safely. This would allow immunization to start immediately and help turn the tide on this terrible virus." The countries that will receive syringes in this initial tranche are from those included in the COVAX indicative distribution and that have put in requests to UNICEF to supply syringes. These shipments will support the country rollout of COVID-19 vaccines, and is part of work by the COVAX Facility to provide vaccines to all participating countries. The 0.5 ml syringes are being dispatched from UNICEF's humanitarian warehouse in Dubai, while the 0.3 ml & 2 ml syringes will be transported directly from a manufacturer in Spain. The consignments will also include safety boxes for the safe disposal of syringes. Both syringes are of the auto-disable type, which means they cannot be used again after a single dose of vaccine has been administered. This reduces the risk of infection from blood-borne diseases as a result of syringe re-use. In all, UNICEF will be supplying up to 1 billion syringes and 10 million safety boxes to countries in 2021 to ensure they are ready for COVID-19 vaccinations. In order to meet the demand for these vital supplies, UNICEF created a stockpile of almost half a billion syringes in its warehouses in Copenhagen and Dubai in preparation for the broader rollout of COVID-19 vaccines in 82 low- and lower middle-income countries. UNICEF has been working with airlines, logistics operators and freight forwarders to ensure the syringes are treated as priority freight, whether they are being shipped direct from a manufacturer or from UNICEF warehouses to the destination country's port of entry. Although the first deliveries will be transported by air, most of the syringes and safety boxes will be transported by sea due to the large amount of space they take up as cargo. UNICEF is aiming to make 2 billion COVID-19 doses available for delivery in 2021. Even before COVID-19, UNICEF was already the largest single vaccine buyer in the world, procuring over 2 billion vaccines annually in order to reach almost half of the world's children under 5. In addition, the agency procures and supplies around 600-800 million syringes for regular immunization programmes annually. COVAX is a global collaboration co-led by Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) and WHO, and includes UNICEF, which leads on procurement and delivery, as well as getting countries ready to receive vaccines. ##### Двое мужчин на складе с коробками UNICEF/UN0419486/Pableo

Rosalyn Terborg-Penn
In 1977, recognizing the need for a uniquely focused organizational structure within their profession, three Black women historians spearheaded the move to recruit other Black women nationwide. Rosalyn Terborg-Penn, Eleanor Smith, and Elizabeth Parker initiated a series of meetings held in South Hadley, Massachusetts, and in two California cities, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
The ABWH constitution outlines four organizational goals: to establish a network among the membership; to promote Black women in the profession; to disseminate information about opportunities in the field; and to make suggestions concerning research topics and repositories. Apart from amendments concerning dues, the constitution has undergone few revisions since its adoption.
Starting with the 1979 gathering in New York, ABWH annual meetings have been held every fall in conjunction with the convention of the Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History (ASALH). This consolidation of meeting saves ABWH members additional travel expense. Over the years ABWH sponsored sessions have become an integral part of the ASALH convention. At the second ABWH annual meeting in New Orleans, the membership elected Terborg-Penn as the group's first national director, a position she held for two consecutive terms. In 1980, with a view toward the organization's continued stability and growth, Terborg-Penn and other members of the executive council instructed National Treasurer Bettye J. Gardner to incorporate ABWH under the laws of the District of Columbia. In 1980, ABWH collaborated with the Organization of American Historians and the Fund to Improve Post-Secondary Education to complete a Black History Project. The following year, ABWH members coordinated their efforts with the American Historical Association to develop a Directory of Women Historians (1981). During the summer of 1983, ABWH members organized a conference on women in the African diaspora held at Howard University. Other ABWH projects and activities are local in character and focus. The four regional areas, consisting of a far west region, a midwest region, a southern region, and an eastern region, comprise the ABWH organizational framework. The four regional directors plan mini-conferences, luncheons, and seminars for the members in their regions.
First initiated in 1981, the ABWH annual luncheon, featuring a keynote address, takes place on the afternoon of the general membership meeting and serves as an organizational fund-raiser and opportunity for networking. Publication prize awards, created in 1983 to honor the now deceased Black historian Letitia Woods Brown, recognize excellence in scholarship. The Brown Prize recipients receive their awards during the luncheon.
Through the various awards and activities, emphasizing excellence in scholarship and leadership, the ABWH remains committed to strengthening networks among historians and to its founders' goals as set forth in its constitution.

The Invisible Man (2020). See No Evil, But Do See This Movie.
Directed By: Leigh Whannell, Written By: Leigh Whannell, Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Aldis Hodge & Storm Reid.
*Mild Spoilers*
One of the factors I love most about horror movies is how they sometimes reflect issues that affect the world we live in. In this instance, the emotional and psychological abuse that some people weather in toxic relationships. The monsters in these films are exaggerations, sure, but it's exaggerations that drive a point home most effectively.
The Invisible Man takes the damaged, abusive relationship factor and amplifies it tenfold. The film opens with Cecilia (a superb performance from Elisabeth Moss) executing her plan to escape her cruel and controlling boyfriend Adrian Griffin (Oliver Jackson-Cohen). It's a powerful and almost uncomfortable opening that sets the film up perfectly, as it has the audience rooting for her instantly and we haven't even met the film's antagonist at this stage.
Once away, Cecilia goes to live with her policeman friend James (Aldis Hodge) and his daughter, Sydney (Storm Reid). Cecilia is a nervous wreck. Still not convinced she has succeeded in escaping Adrian's manipulative clutches. Each day she leaves the house in an attempt to retrieve the mail from the box at the end of the yard. Each day she gets a little further before the panic sets in and she races back inside. That is until she gets a visit from her sister Emily (Harriet Dyer).
Emily comes brandishing a letter stating that Adrian is dead. Cecilia is finally free… Or is she? It's from this moment that the film turns up its creepy factor. Cecilia becomes convinced that not only is Adrian very much alive, but he has found a way to stalk her without being seen.
Of course, nobody believes her. They all think the trauma of her previous relationship has pushed her nerves to breaking point.
The films greatest asset besides its lead actress's performance is the special effects involved in bringing the invisible villain to life. Or should I say, the lack of them? Don't go into this film hoping for an updated version of Hollow Man. This film has other tricks up its sleeve to portray an invisible stalker, i.e. filling the negative space in a scene with nothing. Instead, you the viewer are forced to use your other senses in these crucial scenes when Cecilia is creeping around the house trying to prove she isn't mad, like listening out for a faint floorboard creak or the sound of breathing or anything that will give away the unseen assailants position. It's an impressive technique for getting a cinema audience to shut up and become engaged in the action on the screen. I was so engrossed in trying to catch out the nothingness on the screen that I would become aware of having not breathed for many periods throughout the movie.
Of course, there are special effects involved in bringing the invisible man to life and they are spectacular, and all the more impressive as they are used so sparsely throughout the film. The premise behind Griffin's ability to appear invisible is also more grounded in reality. We don't have the 'mad scientist drinks a formula' as is usually the case. Griffin uses a technology that as far as I'm aware actually exists to this day. Although the tech on display here is far more remarkable and effective.
I want to gloss back over Elizabeth Moss's performance. It's wonderful and possibly the strongest performance I have seen in a movie of this type for many years. Moss, sells every scene, whether she appears hysterical and scared witless or determining that enough is enough and she would rather stand and fight than run anymore. The film may be titled The Invisible Man, but this is Cecilia's movie and Elisabeth Moss does a brilliant job of putting the audience in her shoes.
I don't think director, Leigh Whannell gets enough credit. Not only is he the brains behind the original Saw film but he also wrote and directed 2018s fantastic 'Upgrade'. Whannell has crafted a strong, genuinely scary film, that not only serves to bring a fresh spin on a classic cinema monster but also acts as a very relevant take on the horrors of domestic abuse.
Everything from the way the film is shot to its magnificent atmospheric score by Benjamin Wallfisch works to only make the film that much more intense. I can't speak highly enough of The Invisible Man. It will take a strong movie to knock this from my number one horror movie of 2020 spot.
If you're planning on seeing The Invisible Man, I urge you to see it in a theatre if you truly wish to experience the nail-biting thrills this movie dishes up.


I've put a lot away over the last few months, but what follows are a few of my tastiest and most memorable outtakes, worth tracking down in your city.
All of us ask a lot of our bodies, but I think it's fair to say that for me this is...extra true. As Restaurant Editor of Food & Wine I spend months on the road scouting each year's class of Best New Chefs and Restaurants of the Year—a big job that requires an even bigger appetite. Double dinners (we call them bang-bangs) and even the occasional triple (that's a bang-bang-bang baby) are part of the job, often on the heels of a day spent exploring new bakeries, street vendors, farmers markets and unicorn frappalattewhatevers.
This year's journey was no less an exquisite gavage—many tens of thousands of miles traveled in search of delicious and surprising things to eat, like the PB and C(urry) at Preeti Mistry's modern Indian spot Navi Kitchen in Oakland, or Ross Coleman and James Haywood's West African remixes at their Houston sleeper, Kitchen 713. I fell deeply in love with the city of St. Louis, thanks in no small part to Loryn Nalic's stuffed Turkish pide bread slicked with tangy red pepper ajvar at Balkan Treat Box truck, and lost mind over Anthony Rush and Chris Kajioka's slow-cooked cabbage with moringa powder at Senia in Honolulu.
trotter sausage with perilla mustard, ham hock "ketchup" and shiso relish. it's hefty. it's flavorful. it's not for everybody, but that's how we like it.

Villa Medici (italijanska izgovorjava: [ˈvilla ˈmɛːditʃi]) ali vila Medičejcev je manieristična vila in arhitekturni kompleks z vrtom, ki meji na večje vrtove Borghese, na hribu Pincian poleg Trinità dei Monti v Rimu v Italiji. V vili Medici, ki jo je ustanovil Ferdinando I. Medičejski, veliki vojvoda Toskane in je zdaj last francoske države, je od leta 1803 nastanjena Francoska akademija v Rimu.
Glasbeni prizor njenih vrtnih vodnjakov je v  Respighijevi simfonični pesnitvi Rimski vodnjaki.

Zgodovina
V antičnih časih je bilo mesto vile Medičejcev del vrtov Lukula, ki so prešli v roke cesarske družine z Messalino, ki je bila v vili umorjena.

Leta 1564, ko so nečaki kardinala Giovannija Riccija iz Montepulciana pridobili posest, so jo dolgo namenili vinogradništvu. Edino stanovanje je bila Casina – paviljon kardinala Marcella Crescenzija, ki je tukaj vzdrževal vinograd in začel izboljševati vilo pod vodstvom Florentinca Nannija Lippija, ki pa je umrl, preden je delo prišlo daleč. Novi lastniki so naročili Annibale Lippiju, sinu pokojnega arhitekta, da nadaljuje z delom. Posegi Michelangela so tradicija.

Leta 1576 je nepremičnino kupil kardinal Ferdinando I. Medičejski, ki je dokončal strukturo po načrtih Bartolomea Ammanatija. Vila Medičejcev je postala prva med posestmi Medičejcev v Rimu, ki je nameravala konkretno izraziti njihov vzpon med italijanskimi knezi in potrditi njihovo stalno prisotnost v Rimu. Po kardinalovem vztrajanju je Ammanati v oblikovanje vključil rimske reliefe in kipe, ki so prihajali na ogled iz skoraj vsakega dela prostrane dežele, zaradi česar so fasade vile, kakršna je zdaj, postale virtualni muzej na prostem. Niz velikih vrtov je spominjal na botanične vrtove, ki jih je v Pisi in Firencah ustvaril kardinalov oče Cosimo I. Medičejski, zaščitene v nasadih borovcev, cipres in hrastov. Ferdinando I. Medičejski je imel severovzhodno od vrta nad Avrelijanovim zidom zgrajen studiolo, zatočišče za študij in razmišljanje. Zdaj te sobe gledajo na vrtove Borghese, prej pa so imele pogled na rimsko podeželje. Ti dve sobi je šele leta 1985 odkrila restavratorka Geraldine Albers: prekrito beljenje je zaščitilo in ohranilo vrhunsko fresko, ki jo je izdelal Jacopo Zucchi 1576 in 1577.

Med presenetljivo zbirko rimskih skulptur v vili je bilo okoli stosedemdeset kosov, kupljenih iz dveh rimskih zbirk, ki sta se združili s poroko, zbirk Capranica in della Valle. Grafiko, ki podrobno opisuje postavitev kipov pred letom 1562, je dokumentiral Galassi Alghisi. Tri dela, ki so prispela v vilo Medičejcev pod vodstvom kardinala Fernanda, so uvrščena med najbolj znana v mestu: skupina Niobe in Rokoborca, oba odkrita leta 1583 in jih je kardinal Ferdinando takoj kupil, ter Arrotino. Ko je leta 1587 kardinal uspel kot veliki vojvoda Toskane, njegov starejši brat pa je umrl, se je zadovoljil z mavčnimi kopijami svoje skupine Niobe, pri čemer je v celoti vedel o prestižu, ki so ga Medičejci dosegli z ohranitvijo tako veličastne zbirke v evropskem mestu katerih pomen je daleč presegel pomen njihovega lastnega kapitala. Medičejski levi so bili dokončani leta 1598 in v zbirko pri vili je vstopila Medičejska vaza, ki ji je sledila Medičejska Venera do leta 1630; Medičejske skulpture so bile odpeljane v Firence šele v 18. stoletju. Nato so starine iz vile Medičejcev tvorile jedro zbirke starin v Uffiziju, Firence pa so začele nastopati na seznamu Evropejcev na Grand Tour.

Vodnjak pred vilo je oblikovan iz vaze iz rdečega granita iz antičnega Rima. Zasnoval ga je Annibale Lippi leta 1589. Pogled z vile, ki gleda na fontano v smeri proti svetemu Petru v daljavi, je bil precejkrat naslikan, vendar so drevesa v ospredju zdaj zakrila pogled.

Tako kot vila Borghese, na katero meji, so bili vrtovi vile veliko bolj dostopni kot palače, kot je palača Farnese v osrčju mesta. Stoletje in pol je bila vila Medičejcev ena najelegantnejših in najbolj posvetnih okolic v Rimu, sedež veleposlaništva velikih vojvod pri Svetem sedežu. Ko je moška linija Medičejcev leta 1737 izginila, je vila prešla v rodbino Lorraine in za kratek čas v času Napoleona v kraljestvo Etruria. Na ta način je Napoleon Bonaparte prišel v posest vile, ki jo je prenesel na Francosko akademijo v Rimu. Kasneje je v njem gostil zmagovalce prestižne Prix de Rome (francoska štipendija za študente umetnosti, sprva za slikarje in kiparje, ki je bila ustanovljena leta 1663 v času vladavine Ludvika XIV.) pod uglednimi vodji, vključno z Ingresom in Balthusom, dokler niso nagrado leta 1968 ukinili.

Leta 1656 naj bi švedska kraljica Kristina izstrelila enega od topov na vrhu Angelskega gradu, ne da bi ga najprej namerila. Svobodna krogla je zadela vilo in uničila eno od florentinskih lilij, ki so okrasile fasado.

Francoska akademija v Rimu

Leta 1803 je Napoleon Bonaparte francosko akademijo v Rimu preselil v vilo Medičejcev z namenom ohraniti ustanovo, ki je bila nekoč ogrožena zaradi francoske revolucije. Vila in njeni vrtovi so bili sprva v žalostnem stanju, zato so jih morali prenoviti, da bi lahko nastanili zmagovalce nagrad Prix de Rome. Na ta način je upal, da bo mladim francoskim umetnikom ohranil priložnost, da si ogledajo in kopirajo mojstrovine antike in renesanse. Mladi arhitekt Auguste-Henri-Victor Grandjean de Montigny se je lotil prenove.

Tekmovanje je bilo prekinjeno med prvo svetovno vojno, Benito Mussolini pa je vilo leta 1941 zaplenil, zaradi česar se je Francoska akademija v Rimu do leta 1945 umaknila. Tekmovanje in Prix de Rome je leta 1968 odpravil André Malraux. Académie des Beaux-Arts v Parizu in Institut de France sta nato izgubila skrbništvo nad vilo Medičejcev v korist ministrstva za kulturo in francoske države.

Od takrat dalje gojenci niso več pripadali samo tradicionalnim disciplinam (slikarstvo, kiparstvo, arhitektura, graviranje kovin, graviranje na dragi kamen, glasbena kompozicija itd.), ampak tudi novim ali prej zanemarjenim umetniškim področjem (umetnostna zgodovina, arheologija, literatura, scenografija, fotografija, film, video, restavriranje, pisanje in celo kuhanje.) Umetnike ne zaposluje več natečaj, ampak prijava, njihovo bivanje pa se običajno giblje od šest do osemnajst mesecev.

Med letoma 1961 in 1967 je umetnik Balthus, ki je bil takrat na čelu Akademije, izvedel obsežno obnovitveno kampanjo palače in njenih vrtov ter jim zagotovil sodobno opremo. Balthus je sodeloval v vseh fazah gradnje. Tam, kjer je zgodovinski dekor izginil, je Balthus predlagal osebne alternative. Izumil je dekor, ki je bil poklon preteklosti in hkrati radikalno sodoben: Skrivnostni melanholični dekor, ki ga je ustvaril za vilo, je postal zgodovinski in je bil leta 2016 v pomembni restavratorski kampanji. Delo se je nadaljevalo pod vodstvom prejšnjega direktorja Richarda Peduzzija, Vila Medičejcev pa je nadaljevala z organizacijo razstav in predstav, ki so jih ustvarili njeni umetniki.

Akademija nadaljuje s programom vabljenja mladih umetnikov, ki prejemajo štipendijo, da dvanajst mesecev preživijo v Rimu in razstavijo svoja dela. Ti umetniki so znani kot pensionnaires. Francoska beseda pension se nanaša na sobo in hrano, ki ga prejmejo na splošno mladi in obetavni umetniki. Vila Medičejcev gosti številne sobe za goste, in če jih ne uporabljajo umetniki ali drugi uradni gostje, so odprte za širšo javnost.

Arhitekturni vpliv

Več vil svoj slog temelji na vili Medičejcev. Arhitekt Edward Lippincott Tilton je leta 1893 zasnoval hotel Colorado v Glenwood Springsu v Koloradu. Filantrop James H. Dooley je imel leta 1912 zgrajen dvorec Swannanoa na Rockfish Gapu v Virginiji. Arhitekturno podjetje v New Yorku, Schultze in Weaver, je oblikovalo model Breakers Hotel v Palm Beachu na Floridi po vili za drugo rekonstrukcijo hotela, ki je potekala med letoma 1925 in 1926.

Marmorni Medičejski levi po stopnicah na dvorišče so služili kot navdih za bronaste leve Bernarda Foucqueta v Lejonbackenu (levo pobočje) na severni strani kraljeve palače v Stockholmu v letih 1700–1704.

Don't know whether it's Dr. Alan Menter's charm, his South African accent, or his brilliance, or perhaps all three, that have made him the fan favorite of those with challenging skin. In Dallas since 1975, he's been dealing with every type of dermatological issue. However, one in particular really caught his attention years ago — psoriasis.
Oh, sure, you've heard it's unattractive, but that doesn't even touch the pain and cruelty of this immune-mediated disease that affects 7.5 million Americans, including 675,000 Texans.
No, you don't have to worry about it being contagious. That's the good news. But treatment is difficult at best and no one is quite certain what causes it. That's the bad news. The worst news is that depending upon its severity, it can be embarrassingly ugly, painful and cause disability because of its effect on joints resulting in painful arthritis.
For his years of work and creating greater awareness of the disease, Alan will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Psoriasis Foundation at its semi-annual Commit to Cure Gala on Saturday, October 26, at the Hilton Anatole.
"Dr. Menter's passion for treating people with psoriasis has made him a world-renowned leader and innovator in medical dermatology as well as a friend of many individuals affected by the disease," said Julie Hubach, chairwoman of the Psoriasis Foundation Gala committee. "The gala will be an evening of gratitude and celebration while raising funds for a very worthy cause with cocktails, seated dinner and a video tribute to his work.
How about a little trivia about Dr. M? In addition to his leadership in medicine, he was known for being a flyhalf rugby union player for the Springboks.

New Toyota headquarters officially opens in Plano
PLANO - Toyota's new headquarters in Plano opened Thursday morning with a grand opening that included White House staff, local elected officials and former Dallas Cowboy Emmitt Smith.
Three years ago Toyota announced it was moving its North American headquarters to Plano and the end result is an ultra-modern, state-of-the-art complex with sort of a futuristic design. There's an open-air feature that can be seen over the main entrance.
The company's headquarters is actually a cluster of buildings connected by walkways or a plaza or two, all nicely landscaped. It sits on a 100-acre site and spans 2 million square feet along Legacy Drive and the Sam Rayburn Tollway.
Some employees have already moved in. Toyota plans to have 4,000 people working in the complex by the end of the year. Most have moved to North Texas from other Toyota facilities around the country but the company does plan to hire about 1,000 workers from North Texas.
Governor Greg Abott called it one of the largest economic development deals in Texas.
"This company is helping to support the Texas economy is unmatched," he said. "We continue to add jobs at an incredible pace in part because of what Toyota has done more Texans have jobs today than ever before in the history of our great state."
Plano Mayor Harry Larosiliere talked about the reason why Toyota chose the city to relocate.
"I think the cornerstone of a great city is safety. We are one of the safest cities in America, terrific school district, fantastic city services and our people. So that's the cornerstone that really drew Toyota here and they're committed to be part of our community as well," he said.
The automaker also received some financial incentives to build its headquarters in Plano. Toyota got $40 million from the Texas Enterprise Fund and another $6.5 million from the city of Plano, plus tax abatements.
But Mayor Larosiliere said all that will end up being a very good investment for the city.
Toyota also announced a $1 millon grant. It was awarded to the Collin County Mobility Collaborative made up of family and friends organizations.

Q: Flex Storing Variable I am new in flex development so I need a help to understand logic and solution for my requirement,
My Concern is when I login to particular page i want to stored a navigation menu name in any variable or any collection so I can check my last visited page name by that variable or collection data.
Is there any possibility where I check what was my last page visited.
I have a requirement like this to handle refresh event in flex pages.
when I refresh my page I want to go back to same page
your valuable comments and your knowledge is needed.

A: Why not to create a NavigationManager class where you can store in static variables the informations you need.
For example
class MyNavigationManager
{

    private static var _visitedPages:Array = [];

    public static function pushPage(pageName:String):void
    {
        _visitedPages.push(pageName);
    }

    public static function get currentPageName():String
    {
        if(_visitedPages.length > 0 )
             return _visitedPages[_visitedPages.length -1 ];

        return null;
    }

    // ...something else you may need, maybe popPage():Sting...
}

And to use it you can call from any place in your app
MyNavigationManager.pushPage("Home");
MyNavigationManager.pushPage("User Account");
trace(MyNavigationManager.currentPageName);

Update 1
Since you need independent SharedObjects based on browser type (as requested in the comments...)
Get browser name
var userAgent : String  = String(ExternalInterface.call("function(){return navigator.userAgent}"));
trace (userAgent);

Use userAgent to create different shared objects, and initialize like this.
public var sharedObj:SharedObject;

private function initSharedObject():void
{
    sharedObj = SharedObject.getLocal("SO_"+userAgent.subStr(0,6));
}

Hope that it is better now.

A: public function initSharedObject(userAgent:String):String
    {
        Alert.show("userAgent : "+userAgent+" substring : "+userAgent.substr(0,15));
        sharedObj = SharedObject.getLocal("SO_"+userAgent.substr(0,15));
        if (sharedObj.size > 0)
            var currentState:String =sharedObj.data.tasks;
        //Alert.show("curentState in init "+currentState);
        return currentState;
    }

    public function saveTasks(curentState:String):void {
        //Alert.show("curentState  "+curentState);
        sharedObj.data.tasks = curentState;
        sharedObj.flush();
    }

    public function deleteSavedTasks(userAgent:String):void {
        //Alert.show("Im in Delete ...");
        //Alert.show("userAgent : "+userAgent+" substring : "+userAgent.substr(0,11));
        sharedObj = SharedObject.getLocal("SO_"+userAgent.substr(0,15));
        sharedObj.clear();
    }

Hi Adrain ,
above code I am using in the share Objects handling in my application,But Sub String of userAgent String give me Output :
IE 11 :
userAgent : Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Trident/7.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E; InfoPath.3; MS-RTC LM 8; rv:11.0) like Gecko substring : Mozilla/5.0
Mozilla :
userAgent : Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:27.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/27.0 substring : Mozilla/5.0
Please check the above code and its substring output.
and please let me know.

I updated my 930 to Denim today, and I've set up Hey Cortana but it will only work when the screen is on and the phone is unlocked. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know the solution?
+ allowed to run in background.
Works on mine fine even with the screen off.
One thing is when the battery saver kicks in then it turns it off. That's fine, but it doesn't turn it on again when charged.
You need to tick 'allow speech above lock' in speech settings.
You can enable that in battery saver settings.
Did you change any settings or do anything to get it to work?
Try doing a soft reset. Might help.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I've tried that a few times with no luck.
Is your region and phones language the same ?
I think it has to be to even have hey cortana functioning, but check anyway. And is it allowed to run in the background ?
Thanks for your help guys but it's started working, completely randomly!
Literally the only thing that changed was that I moved from my parents home in Birmingham back to my flat in London. Maybe Cortana hates the midlands.
At home on WIFI and VZW network extender. NO 4G and NO 3G. Could that be the problem with "Hey Cortana "
Had a nice Warning message when trying to Launch "Softcard"
Answer.. in general settings Between "Backup assistant Plus" and "Motion Data"
Simple " Hey Cortana" option that leads to a voice training app.
