The MIB module contain the Bearer and CID (Channel Identifier) connection information.
This table describes the statistical information available on a per-bearer connection basis. These values are applicable equally to an endpoint.
Each entry in this table corresponds to a bearer connection, that was setup by binding an endpoint with a VC(Virtual channel)/CID pair, either through CLI or SNMP. The statistical counters in this table are generic voice quality parameters that are equally applicable in all types of Voice Over Packet adapations (VoIP, VoAAL1 and VoAAL2). However, they are maintained only in the PVC(Permanent virtual circuit) trunking model because, these counters get reset in the switching model on a per call basis. The entries in this table are implicitly created/deleted at the time of creation/deletion of entries in the vismAal2CidCnfTable.
This attribute defines the index for the Bearer Connection Table. This refers to the same value as the index to the mgEndpointTable ie. mgEndpointNumber. This is define in CISCO-WAN-MG-MIB MIB.
This attribute defines the CID associated with this bearer connection. This refers to the same value as vismAal2CidNum in the vismAal2CidCnfTable.
This attribute defines the PVC or LCN(Logical Channel Number) number to which this bearer connection is associated with. This refers to the same value as in vismCnfChanNum in vismChanCnfGrp table. This is define in CISCO-VISM-CONN-MIB MIB.
This attribute defines the count of packets sent towards the network since this connection setup.
This attribute defines the count of packets received from the network since this connection setup.
This attribute defines the count of bytes sent towards the network since this connection setup.
This attribute defines the count of bytes received from the network since this connection setup.
This attribute defines the count of packets lost in the egress direction (from the network). This is a computed number based on the expected number of packets and the actual number of packets arrived from the network.
This attribute defines the jitter (a.k.a interarrival jitter) This value is determined by the DSP(Digital Signal Processing) and obtained by the HOST processor upon querying the DSP on a periodic basis.
This attribute defines the latency (a.k.a end-to-end average transmission delay for a voice packet).
This object contains the number of external AIS (Alarm Indication Signal) AAL2 Type3 packets received. External AIS - is associated with a maintenance alarm detected on a defective maintenance span, that is transmitted in the direction of the defect as a substitute for normal signal. The purpose is to show the downstream entities that a defect has been identified and to prevent other maintenance alrams consequent to this first defect. External AIS bit stream is represented by an all 1's signal.
This object contains the number of external RAI (Remote Alarm Indication) AAL2 Type3 packets received. External RAI - is a signal that is transmitted upstream from an entity that has detected defects persisting long enough to constitute a received signal failure. Its purpose is to report in the backward direction that there is an interruption of service in the forward direction.
This object contains the number of external Conn AIS AAL2 Type2 packets received. External Conn AIS - is transmitted in the downstream direction from the AAL Type 2 connecting point that first detects a defect affecting the AAL Type 2 connection; this includes defects indicated by lower layers.
This object contains the number of external Conn RDI(Remote Defect Indication) AAL2 Type2 packets received. External Conn RDI - is a signal transmitted upstream by an AAL Type 2 endpoint that is in an alarm state as the result of having received an AAL Type2 connection AIS or having detected a defect that affects the AAL Type2 connection.
This object is used to clear bearerSentPkts, bearerRcvdPkts, bearerSentOctets, and bearerRcvdOctets.
Peak transmit ATM cell rate is the ATM cells required to transmit peak AAL2 packets on a CID per second since midnight as per system time; the peak cell rate gets cleared every 24 hours at midnight as per system time.
Current transmit ATM cell rate is the ATM cells required to transmit current AAL2 packets on a CID per second.
Peak receive ATM cell rate is the ATM cells required to receive peak AAL2 packets on a CID per second since midnight as per system time; the peak cell rate gets cleared every 24 hours at midnight as per system time.
Current receive ATM cell rate is the ATM cells required to receive current AAL2 packets on a CID per second.
This object contains the count of external AIS AAL2 (Type 2) received on this bearerEndptNum since its creation.
This object contains the number of external RAI AAL2 (Type 2) received in this bearerEndptNum since its creation.
This object contains count of external Connection AIS AAL2 (Type 2) received in this bearerEndptNum since its creation.
This object contains the count of external Connection RDI (Remote Defect Indication) AAL2 (Type 2) received in this bearerEndptNum since its creation.
This object contains the count of external AIS AAL2 (Type 2) transmitted in this bearerEndptNum since its creation.
This object contains the count of external RAI AAL2 (Type 2) transmitted in this bearerEndptNum since its creation.
This table is defined to establish the binding between an endpoint and a PVC/CID pair in the case of AAL2 adaptation. This table is created and used in trunking mode VISM application only. The maximum number of CIDs that can be configured depends on the current codec template being used as represented by vismAppliedTemplate object. The signaling type of the line has to be configured before adding any CID on that line.
Identifies an entry for vismAal2CidCnfTable.
This attribute defines part of the index for this table. vismAal2CidNum is the CID of a voice channel. CID has to be the same at both endpoints for a connection. CID is unique only within the context of a Virtual Circuit (PVC or SVC).
This attribute defines part of the index for the vismAal2CidCnfTable. Since CID is unique to a PVC, a combination of LCN and CID uniquely identifies a voice connection. This field refers to vismCnfChanNum defined in vismChanCnfGrp of CISCO-VISM-CONN-MIB MIB.
This attribute defines the endpoint number to which this CID is associated. It is the same as mgEndpointNumber defined in mgEndpointTable of CISCO-WAN-MG-MIB MIB.
This variable allows to add or delete a CID. A CID can only be added or deleted. Once added, modifying an entry is not allowed. 'createAndGo': Use this to add an entry in this table. 'active': This values is returned, once the row is created. 'destroy': Use this to delete an entry from this table.
This attribute defines whether the triple redundancy is supported for type 3 packets in AAL2 for this channel. When Triple redundancy is enabled for a channel, the Type 3 packets (CAS bits, dialled digits and user state control packets) are transmitted in triplicates with an interval defined as per the standards I.366.2. For channels which are quite reliable, triple redundancy can be disabled in order to save the bandwidth and the processing overheads. The default value of this object is 'true(1)' if either vismAal2CidCasTransport or vismAal2CidDtmfTransport is 'true(1)', otherwise the default value is 'false(2)'.
This attribute defines whether the VAD (Voice Activity Detection) has to be applied on this channel, upon detection of silence. For algorithms that do not have VAD standards, Cisco-proprietary VAD can be applied and the generic SID(Silence Information Descriptor) packet as specified in I.366.2 standards can be sent to the other end. When the codec specify in vismAal2CidCodecType is 'clearChannel' VAD has to be off.
This attribute defines the profile type. The profile type defines which group of the profile tables the profile number should correspond to. There are three possible groups: 'itu' - corresponding to the tables in ITU format in the profile is being used. 'atm' - This is not supported 'custom' - VISM specific custom profiles.
This attribute defines the profile number. A profile is a set of entries, where each entry specifies an encoding format with a UUI(User-to-User Indication) range and length. This set defines a mapping that informs the receiver of a Type 1 packet how to interpret the packet contents, i.e. which encoding format in the profile is being used.
This attribute defines the codec Type used for the connection. 'g711u' represents PCMU with 64 kbps. 'g711a' represents PCMA with 64 kbps. 'g726r32000' represents G.726 at rate 32 kbps 'g726r16000' represents G.726 at rate 16 kbps 'g726r24000' represents G.726 at rate 24 kbps 'g726r40000' represents G.726 at rate 40 kbps 'g729a' represents G.729 Annex A algorithm. 'g729ab' represents G.729 Annex A and Annex B algorithm. 'clearChannel' represents CCD with 64 kbps. 'g723h' represents G.723.1-H at rate 6.3kbps. 'g723ah' represents G.723.1-H at rate 6.3kbps with Silence Supression ON. 'g723l' represents G.723.1-L at rate 5.3kbps. 'g723al' represents G.723.1-L at rate 5.3kbps with Silence Supression ON. 'lossless' represents Lossless Note : 1. When codec type is 'clearChannel', vismAal2CidProfileType and vismAal2CidProfileNum are not applicable and will be ignored. 2. Value 10 is RESERVED.
This attribute defines whether the DTMF (Dual Tone Multi Frequency) digits need to be transported to the other end-point.
This attribute defines whether the CAS(Channel Associated Signaling) bits need to be transported to the other endpoint. In the case of switching application, the CAS bits are backhauled to the call agent through xGCP(Gateway Control Protocol)-CAS protocol. Note that if the line signaling type is CAS the default value is 'true(1)', else the default value is 'false(2)'.
This attribute defines whether Echo Cancellation has to be enabled on this connection. If it is set to 'true(1)', echo cancellation is enabled. If it is set to 'false(2)', echo cancellation is disabled.
This attribute defines the hangover time for VAD. Once the voice inactivity is detected, the gateway will wait for this duration before activating silence suppression.
This object is used to configure the packetization period for a given codec. This packetization period has to be a valid entry in the profile table. Profile type and number identify a unique profile table and one codec type in this table might have one or more packetization period. This is applicable only if the vismAal2CidCodecType is 'g729a'. The configurable values for 'g729a' are 10,20,30 & 40. If a CID entry is configured with a codec other than 'g729a' then the user cannot configure the pkt period for that codec and the pkt period is picked from the profile table. Hence when we do get/walk on this entry/table any one of the above values could be returned.
This object is used to enable or disable the ICS(Idle Channel Suppression) for a CID. This can be specified while adding the CID and cannot be modified. When the Idle Channel Suppression is enabled the DSP will look for the idle CAS (ABCD bits) pattern specified in ds0IdleCode in CISCO-VISM-DSX0-MIB MIB. If the idle pattern is present the DSP stops generating voice packets towards ATM side. By default the ds0IdleCode will be zero unless the user has configured it before adding the CID. If the ds0IdleCode is changed after the CID is added it will have no affect unless the card is reset. ICS is applicable only for trunking application, in case of switching there is no need for ICS as the calls are teared down and set up dynamically.
Indicates the state of the CID. 'cidStateActive' : The CID is in service and operational. 'cidStateFailed' : The CID is in service but not operational, e.g. because the PVC that the CID belongs to is receiving F5(Operation, Administration and Maintenance Flow) level alarm. When VISM sees alarm on a CID (network side) sets this object to 'cidStateFailed', and an AIS will be sent on the ds0(Time Division Multiplexed voice channel) that this CID corresponds to. If the whole PVC is in alarm then all the CIDs on that PVC will be set to 'cidStateFailed', trapVismChanFailed trap will be sent and all the ds0's that corresponds to each of the CIDs on this PVC will be in alarm. If VISM sees an alarm on a ds0 in a line then an RAI(Remote Alarm Indication) will be sent on the CID that corresponds to this ds0, however the CID will not be put in failed state.
This attribute defines the operational administrative state of the bearer connection. cidInService: This is an operational state of the bearer connection where it is ready to transmit/receive data/voice packets. The user can take the bearer connection into cidInService. cidCommandedOutOfService: This is an operational state of the bearer connection where it is not ready to transmit/receive data/voice packets. The user can take the bearer connection into cidPendingOutOfService. cidPendingInService: It is a transient state. In this state the bearer connection is waiting for the user to transition it to the cidInService state. This value cannot be specified in a management protocol set operation. cidPendingOutOfService: It is a transient state. In this state the bearer connection is waiting for the user to transition it to the cidOutOfService state. This value cannot be specified in a management protocol set operation. cidUnknownState: This is an abnormal state of the bearer connection. This state would indicate to the user that there is some data integrity issue on the bearer administrative state.

Dr. Tyler Denmead is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge. He also serves as a Fellow and Director of Studies of Education at Queens' College.
Denmead researches and writes about youth, arts, culture, and race, with a particular focus on whiteness. His educational inquiry crosses several fields, including visual art education, art history, cultural studies, and critical race and ethnic studies, and is informed by his prior work as a community-based arts educator and occasional artist/performer. He is the founding executive director of New Urban Arts in Providence, Rhode Island, USA.
His book, The Creative Underclass: Youth, Race, and the Gentrifying City (Duke University Press, 2019) is an ethnographic examination of how youth creatively and culturally respond to racialising discourses of "troubled youth" that have been central to state-led creative urban gentrification schemes. His current book project is a critical examination of anti-racist reading practices, with a particular focus on a 2021 British legal case in which a White nationalist, convicted of possessing information useful to plotting a terrorist attack, was sentenced to reading canonical English literature.
He welcomes applications from doctoral students working in Education across a variety of disciplines and theoretical concerns, including: American Studies; Critical Youth Studies; Cultural Studies; British Cultural Studies; Critical Race and Ethnicity Studies; Critical Race Theory, particularly Critical Whiteness Studies; Black Feminisms, and Artistic, literary, ethnographic, and cultural methods of analysis.
Students in his doctoral research group study British Muslim women's lived experiences and biopower; international Chinese students and Anti-Asian racism at American universities; decolonising the Ghanaian visual art curriculum; textile as practice-based research; spacemaking by Black British women in elite British universities; Indian Classical Dance and Hindutva, and gendered racialization in the English Language Teaching industry in China. Prior doctoral students have studied social art practice and have written fiction as a dissertation.
He has been the recipient of several fellowships and awards, including from the Leverhulme Trust, the Illinois Program for Research in the Humanities, the Echoing Green Foundation, and the Society of Royce Fellows. In 2019, students at Cambridge voted him the Best Lecturer at the University of Cambridge.
He holds a master's degree and doctorate (Education) from Cambridge and received his bachelor's degree (History of Art and Architecture) from Brown University.

THE SIPPY AWARDS 2019! The "Time to Run Some Red Lights" Sippy for Excellent Action!!! in SFF
If you were around for the first Fast and the Furious movie, you might remember the news articles about how people coming out of the movie were more likely to make risky driving decisions. Not that they were just copying what they saw in the movie, but that it left them amped! Well, rounding out my categories that are primarily about an emotional response (horror=pain, ugly-cry=pain), this category is all about EXCITEMENT! FUCK YEAH!!!! So hold onto your butts and get ready for the...
"Time to Run Some Red Lights" Sippy Awards
for Excellent Action! in Short SFF
As I said yesterday, I'm a bit of an emotive reader. Which means when a story hurts, it hurts. And when a story scares, it scares. But it also means when a story pumps it up, it makes me want to punch the sun in a mech suit the size of a planet! You know, like a normal person. Heh. But I love stories that really make me want to stand up, to run, to arrive somewhere breathless, alive. And these stories do just that, featuring characters fighting with all they have against what seems like an overwhelming situation. A threat to destroy their city, their world; a tournament where dreams are made or broken; an attempt by the actual devil to take the one person in the world you kinda tolerate--these are stories with some high stakes and some intense action.
As for where they came from...kinda all over. From the sadly-on-hiatus Apex Magazine, and from the always defiant Fireside Magazine. From Fiyah, from Tor, from GigaNotoSaurus (which came back from a bit of a hiatus this year). These are often sources for stories that get the blood pumping, the mind racing, the muscles twitchy and electric. So let's get to the awards already!!!
"The Crafter at the Web's Heart", Izzy Wasserstein (Apex)
Denise is a young woman trying to make a living in Traverse, a city built and then abandoned by the Crafter. It's a rough place, ripe with corruption and danger and magic. The piece follows Denise on a delivery that turns out to be much more than expected, and exposes a conspiracy and plot that goes to the heart of the city, and has the potential to unravel the delicate strands keeping Traverse from plunging to the abyss.
"Due By the End of the Week", Brandon O'Brien (Fireside)
Told between the alternating perspectives of Derek (somewhat of an ass wanting to get a good grade on a school project) and Kelly (secretly a magical girl making sure the city is safe from paranormal threats and also needing a good grade on the school project to flunk) as they go about their normal lives. It's a compelling take on the Magical Girl trope, and a fantastic portrayal of high school life complicated by powers and monsters.
"For He Can Creep", Siobhan Carroll (Tor)
Cats. Fighting. Satan. I shit you not, this is an absolutely delightful story told from the point of view of a cat who is not about to let any demon, let alone the King of Hell, get between him and one human who's kinda okay maybe. The piece is hilarious and full of fight, but also a truly heartwarming tale as well, at least for readers who don't completely hate cats.
"The Devil Squid Apocalypse", Alex Acks (GigaNotoSaurus)
The end of the world might look like a violent invasion of tentacled alien fascists, but for a group of punk rockers, not today squidfuckers! The action unfolds as humanity is quickly subdued and put to work, and for Marcy, an aging rocker who is the most realistically T I R E D character I have come across, that means having to get around collaborators and alien alike to fight back.
which leaves...
"While Dragons Claim the Sky", Jen Brown (Fiyah)
Appearing in the Hair themed issue, this piece follows two women who are chasing two very different, but also very linked dreams. To be free, to earn enough money and influence that they can maybe push back against the oppression of their system and do something positive for their families. To do that, they partner up to take part in a tournament to get the attention of the nobility and maybe earn enough patronage that they can Do Something with their lives. Of course, in reaching for their dreams they just might find that those shinning goals are built on a foundation of lies and exploitation. And that grabbing them might just bring everything crashing down right on their heads. Luckily, they have each other, their skills, a budding friendship (and possible romance), and a power that maybe even the rulers of their nation can't crush.

Giorgio Armani announces a new calendar for future shows
Image: Imaxtree
5/7/20, 9:45 AM 2020-05-07T09:45:41+04:00
A new calendar for men's, women's and haute couture fashion shows is set...
After Saint Laurent's decision to forgo its presence at Paris Fashion Week and instead launch its own schedule, it seems like Giorgio Armani is following suit and announced a new calendar for future shows.
This September, both Giorgio Armani and Emporio Armani's men's and women's collections will be shown however, the format is yet to be defined.
As for its next Armani Privé runway show, its next showcase has been postponed to January 2021. The show will be held in the historic Palazzo Orsini on Via Borgonuovo in Milan. Also, it's been revealed that the collection will be seasonless and will include garments suitable for winter as well as lighter pieces for summer.
A large selection of Armani's collections will also be available for clients to shop from June 2020 onwards. The designer is offering his clients a large repertoire of styles, making the service of the Armani Privé Atelier available by individual appointment.
Now, find out which tennis champion just got a brand new gig.

February's Metro Vancouver weather forecast included temperatures that felt like -14°C. Now, in stark contrast, the March forecast includes temperatures as high as 22°C inland.
In fact, February 2019 was the coldest February on record in Metro Vancouver since the records began in 1937. Conversely, March 2019 has already broken a number of daily highs, and the overall temperatures for the month are markedly higher.
Vancouver Is Awesome spoke to Matt MacDonald, Meteorologist, Environment Canada, who explained what the Lower Mainland has to look forward to in the coming days.
MacDonald stated that these temperatures are expected to continue on Tuesday, March 19. In fact, he expects that more daily records may be broken, and that Vancouver will set a daily record high. Further, he notes that these temperatures are about 10°C to 11°C above the average for March.
With that in mind, MacDonald said that inland temperatures will likely reach a high of 22°C, and that the mild temperatures will continue tomorrow. However, he adds that temperatures will begin to drop through the week, and that they should return to average temperatures next week.

#1 Song Review: Week of 3/1 – 3/7 (Kis-My-Ft2 v. Sandaime J Soul Brothers v. Anly+Sukima Switch=)
Hello, Arama! Japan readers and welcome to this week's installment of #1 Song Review! Last week saw Hoshino Gen defeat Hey! Say! JUMP and LiSA. This week, we have three newcomers facing off. Find out what various staff members thought of the songs that topped the physical and digital charts this week and share your thoughts on them too!
Oricon #1 / Billboard #1: Kis-My-Ft2 – INTER (not released digitally)
Ronald: Damn, how many times can one say "tonight" in one song? But the repetition of the song's title wasn't the only samey thing about this song. This just sounds like a song I've heard by Sexy Zone or some other Johnny's group before. Nothing new to see here. 3/10
Recochoku #1: Sandaime J Soul Brothers – HAPPY (not released physically / not released on iTunes / Billboard #15)
Ronald: At least it's not an EDM or swag song… People often complain about this group's songs, but when they do something different, it seems… quite odd. Like, this doesn't feel like them, this reminds me more of a song ATSUSHI would do solo, or would get EXILE to do as a B-side. But coming from Sandaime J Soul Brothers, it seems… kinda hollow. Like they heard the criticism and tried to do their version of Hoshino Gen's "Koi." 5/10
iTunes #1: Anly+Sukima Switch= – Kono Yami wo Terasu Hikari no Mukou ni (Oricon #23 / Recochoku #3 / Billboard #6)
Ronald: At first I thought, "This is ok…" It gets better towards the end though. At first, I thought that this song would be better with Anly only. But once the bridge comes in, I see why Sukima Switch is on the song. The interplay between the male and female vocals was a really nice feature. The vocals in the last minute of the song are some of the most exciting I've heard in Japanese music in quite a while. And the guitar closing the song out… Wow, I was actually quite surprised by this song in the end. It really built into something I didn't expect. 7.5/10
Ronald's Rank:
1. iTunes #1: Anly+Sukima Switch= – Kono Yami wo Terasu Hikari no Mukou ni
2. Recochoku #1: Sandaime J Soul Brothers – HAPPY
3. Oricon #1 / Billboard #1: Kis-My-Ft2 – INTER
Which one do you like the most?

My projects starts with this piece of a desk or a bedroom chest that I purchased for $12.
I painted it with Annie Sloan Pure White Chalkpaint, distressed it with sandpaper and sealed it with water based Varathane poly. I applied two coats.
I covered the two little holes with Hobby Lobby wooden medallions.
Now, where to put it? Under a window, right? Hubby said "no". We have steel siding so he didn't want to hang this very heavy window box on the house.
Next comes a great find for $15 and 25% off! A perfectly chippy, white picket fence section.
The window box was just planted today. I will share it again after it has time to fill out.
The fence is a perfect outdoor decorating backdrop!
UPDATE: Since my window box was originally a piece of furniture, I should have reinforced it more before hanging and planting.
After having been planted for just a week, the wood in my window box started cracking.
So screws have been added in front and back and more nails on the bottom. Oh well, live and learn! I still love it, cracks and all! At first I thought I would touch up the screws with more paint, but decided it's a JUNK garden window box. It's fine!
That is so cool Carlene! Love the makeover and the creative idea you had.
Just adorable.....A great recycle .................you keep me on my toes drooling !
I love what you did with the fence panel! What a great idea.
Great idea to make that into a windowbox! If I'm putting something I painted with chalk paint outside, do I have to poly it then? I just waxed it for right now, but it doesn't seem exactly waterproof.
Great idea! I just might have to borrow it.
Great idea to use it on the fence. Sometimes our guys just make so much practical sense.
Such a great idea to hang it on the picket fence...looks wonderful, Carlene!
You're like a junk genius.
Love it Carlene--wite picket fence is my favorite, what a great way to dress it up!
Beautiful, once again. You have a wonderful gift, thanks for letting us see what you've done. Your work gives me some great ideas. Thanks.


This study assesses the social, emotional and behavioral symptoms of 2,575 youth who were receiving behavioral health services from a private provider agency, either in an out of home placement (e.g., foster care home, a group home or a residential treatment facility) or in their own home (through the In-Home Services Program). The findings suggest the prevalence of symptoms in each of the domains (i.e., conduct problems, emotional problems, ADHD, and peer problems) were relatively high compared to the general population. Over 50% of the youth had conduct problems in the borderline or abnormal range, more than 35% had hyperactivity and peer problems subscale scores in the borderline or abnormal range, and almost 25% of the youth reported symptoms of emotional problems in the borderline or abnormal range. Youth"s social, emotional and behavioral problems varied by gender, race/ethnicity and age group.

"Automatic variable selection for longitudinal generalized linear model" by Gaorong Li, Heng Lian et al.
We consider the problem of variable selection for the generalized linear models (GLMs) with longitudinal data. An automatic variable selection procedure is developed using smooth-threshold generalized estimating equations (SGEE). The proposed procedure automatically eliminates inactive predictors by setting the corresponding parameters to be zero, and simultaneously estimates the nonzero regression coefficients by solving the SGEE. The proposed method shares some of the desired features of existing variable selection methods: the resulting estimator enjoys the oracle property; the proposed procedure avoids the convex optimization problem and is flexible and easy to implement. Moreover, we propose a penalized weighted deviance criterion for a data-driven choice of the tuning parameters. Simulation studies are carried out to assess the performance of SGEE, and a real dataset is analyzed for further illustration. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Calgary Custodial and maintenance staff with the Calgary Public School Board have a ratified a new two-year contract for an 8 per cent pay raise. The school support workers are members of CUPE 40.
We are pleased with the wage increase which gives our members recognition for the hard work they do to clean and maintain our schools, said Drake Hammill, president of CUPE 40. Now we need to move on to address the dire shortage in staffing, he added.
The new agreement is retroactive to September 1 giving the CUPE members a 4 percent wage increase this year and 4 per cent November 1, 2004. In addition, wages for some trades and for the wage for the weekend watch will be increased to reflect market rates. The contract was ratified by union members yesterday.
Our members are suffering from tremendous workload. While the wage increase is deserved, the next issue for our union is stepping up the pressure for adequate funding to meet real staffing needs, said Hammill.
CUPE 40 will join with other CUPE locals across the province in a campaign to raise awareness on the need for more support staff in Albertas schools. The union plans to conduct a survey among its members to assess the impact to students of under-funding support services.
Last month the Learning Commission recognized the need to increase funding for operations and maintenance to repair our crumbling schools and ensure students have appropriate learning environments, he said. Now we need to make sure the Klein government recognizes it as well and is prepared to fund school boards so that they can meet staffing needs, he said.

Central Railway ensures no disruption in next monsoon in the Monkey Hill area
By Supriya DedgaonkarSupriya Dedgaonkar, Pune Mirror | Updated: Nov 19, 2019, 22:34 IST

The Central Railway has undertaken extensive restoration work in the Monkey Hill area which will solve the issue of boulders on the rail line for the next 30 years. These mishaps often led to cancellation or delay of trains.
The heavy rains along the Lonavala-Khandala route has affected the 10-kilometre stretch between Monkey Hill and Nagnath in a way that several boulders tumbled down the hilly terrain and blocked the road. Also, the gushing water that ran down the mountain swept away a lot of soil leaving the space uneven for the trains to ply.
Several train routes were affected due to heavy rains that the area received this year. As a result, alternative routes are being used currently. CSMT-Bijapur and CSMT-Pandharpur trains have been cancelled until December, while the Mumbai-Kolhapur, Koyna Express, LTT-Hubballi Express, Mumbai-Hyderabad Express, LTT-Vishakhapatnam and Panvel-Nanded trains, have been partially suspended.

Heavy rains disrupt normal life in Pune
Heavy to very heavy rains across Pune disrupts normal life, causing waterlogging in the office rush hours on Monday evening.
Speaking about the on-going restoration work, Central Railway's Chief Public Relations Officer Shivaji Sutar said, "The restoration work began on October 3 and is progressing rapidly with 40 workers and railway employees working in the region round the clock."
"A total of Rs 10 crore is being spent on the restoration work which is of high quality. This kind of work will ensure that the passengers will have to face no disruptions during the next monsoon, which is the usual case," Sutar added.
All the material is carried by train to the area where the restoration is currently being carried out and is, therefore, taking time to be completed.
According to railway authorities, all the trains running between the two cities as well as to the other cities will resume smooth operations from January. They also claimed that a lot of effort is being put in fixing the issue so that no disruption takes place again in that area.
To complete the work, a team of experts from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay, were consulted and a decision was taken to stop the trains from plying on those tracks on an immediate basis.
Dilnaz Safari, a resident of Pune who often travels to Mumbai for work purpose, said, "For the past few months the train schedule has gone from bad to worse with trains between Mumbai and Pune being cancelled or diverted every now and then."

Alpha Transit is an all-original jam band that takes the usual elements of funk, rock, jazz, and blues and the not so usual elements of electronic and dance music and puts them in the blender with a double shot of improvisation. Transit Comes Alive!, the newest addition to the Alpha Transit catalog, is the first of a two part series of releases recorded 100 percent live at the Milwaukee Ale House during the summer of 2008. The titles of these recordings pay tribute to the seemingly distant era when the record buying masses encouraged and supported their favorite groups extending and improvising on their songs in the live jam format. This recording and the soon to be released Made In Milwaukee showcase the group doing what it does best; steering the music through the map of their compositions, fusing white knuckle improvisations with relentless grooves, and taking the entire audience with them on the mind-boggling journey. Alpha Transit began as trio in October of 2003 with Adam Berzowski on keyboards, Geoff Howard on bass and Tim Rush on drums. To complete their sound, virtuosic guitarist Kirk Tatnall was added in October of 2005, bringing his catalog of compositions into the fold of their already strong base of music. Their versatility as well as detailed attention to balance and tone have given them a quickly growing, diverse fan base that continues to multiply. \'The opening cut on Alpha Transit\'s debut album begins with a wash of ascending, extendedly dark harmonies that plunge into a relentless space-funk groove. The entire album is a blast and offers a full plate to groove-minded and intent listeners alike. With styles ranging from the aforementioned funk to the Eastern European/jazz-flavored \'F.A.F.\' to the aptly bluesy \'Another Fricken Blues,\' the playing is tight and consistently intriguing. Milwaukee guitarist Kirk Tatnall adds his unique blend of styles to the lineup of Geoff Howard on bass, Adam Berzowski on keys and Tim Rush on drums. If you get a chance to see Alpha Transit play locally, jump on it-the show is sure to combine exceptional musicianship and a great vibe.\' - Jason Seed, Shepherd Express Wanna hear some funky stuff? Check out Milwaukee\'s Alpha Locomotive. Hard to say exactly what\'s going on here, but it\'s very cool. Jazz-meets-funk, tweaked with shades of Beck-like rants by way of Vox Humana. Can you dig it? I knew that you could... If this stuff feels good in your pocket, check out the related project Alpha Transit. It\'s just as funky, with a tight punch and stellar musicianship at an accessible level usually ignored by the genre. Everything is wide open here, with soaring guitar solos, funkalicious rhythms and actual melody lines that banter from player to player as they pass solo efforts to and fro. Sort of makes you want to go out and buy modern jazz records. Well, buy one cool new record at their CD release party at Milwaukee\'s BBC, where they celebrate their self-titled debut March 23.

Q: How to store a column value in Redshift varchar column with length more than 65535 I tried to load the redshift table but failed on one column- The length of the data column 'column_description'is longer than the length defined in the table. Table: 65535, Data: 86555.
I tried to increase the length of column in RS table, looks like 65535 is the max length RS supports.
Do we have any alternatives to store value in Redshift?

A: The answer is that Redshift doesn't support anything larger and that one shouldn't store large artifacts in an analytic database.  If you are using Redshift for its analytic powers to find specific artifacts (images, files, etc) then these should be stored in S3 and the object key (pointer) should be stored in redshift.

Wenger remains reluctant to rule rejuvenated Arsenal into title race
Chris Burton
Arsenal v Brighton & Hove Albion
The Gunners ensured that they entered the international break in style with victory over Brighton, with that win lifting them into fifth spot
Arsenal's victory over Brighton has moved them to within six points of the Premier League leaders, but Arsene Wenger says it is "too early" for title talk.
The Gunners stretched their unbeaten run in all competitions to seven games with a 2-0 win over the Seagulls at Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal 6/1 to win Europa League
Arsenal have won six of those fixtures, collecting 10 points from the last 12 on offer in the English top-flight.
They have recovered from a slow start to now sit fifth in the table, but their manager is reluctant to speculate on whether they can mount a sustained challenge for the crown.
"It's too early, it's very early," Wenger told reporters when quizzed on the title credentials of his on-form side.
"Seven games played, 31 to go. Last year after six games, Man City were top with 18 points, so let's not go to quick conclusions. They were outstanding yesterday but it's a long road to go."
He added: "I knew that after the game at Liverpool everybody did write us off. I knew that it just depends on us, how much we respond.
"Nothing is permanent. You're not bad in a permanent way if you can do something about it and you're not good in a permanent way if you don't keep your urgency.
"So we've responded in a united way and put some good wins together and some good performances as well."
Arsenal headed into the last international break on the back of a 4-0 mauling at Anfield which saw some uncomfortable questions asked of them and their manager.
The mood has improved considerably since then, with Wenger able to enjoy the 21st anniversary of his reign during the win against Brighton.
"I would say that we kept a clean sheet, we got the points," he said of the Gunners' current state.
"Our focus and patience in the game was a bit in and out. We had good moments as well as moments where we lost a bit of our concentration. We got what we wanted and just before the break.
"Our last international break was a nightmare, this one was a bit better."
Arsenal will be back in action on October 12 when they take in a trip to Watford.
They have some winnable games on the horizon, with the next truly testing phase of their campaign set to arrive in early November when they face an away date at Manchester City and a north London derby with Tottenham in back-to-back games.

Ask Geri: Should I Join Truly Rich Club or Open an Online Trading Account?
via comment on I Joined Bo Sanchez's Truly Rich Club….
Caveat first, this is a friendly advice and not necessarily a professional one. Haha! I see my self in you. I also started with my extra Php5k in stocks. But now I know better. I suggest you ask yourself first, are you ready to risk your Php5k savings? Have you considered other less risky investment options? Have you built your emergency fund and secured your life and loved ones with financial protection?
You might find this post helpful to get you started: Where to Invest for Newbies?
Now, if you're really bent on investing in stocks, Truly Rich Club will help you choose which stocks to invest in regularly as they send stocks tips and instructions at the very least monthly. Their approach is fundamental, so it's easy to understand why they expect a company's share prices will go up in the long run or why the market is moving as such. Investment horizon is long, as Bo usually tells us that we intend to keep the stocks for 20 years or so granted that there are no adverse trends and news for the company. So short-term fluctuations and market swings are not to be feared. They also encourage regular monthly investments (they call it strategic averaging method (SAM)) as long as buy below prices have not been reached.
Plus among other benefits that TRC has to offer like Bo's Daily God Whispers, 8 Secrets of the Truly Rich, and many more downloadable books and audio recordings for our spiritual and financial wellness. TRC also has an affiliate arm which you might want to consider for extra passive income. Subscription with TRC though will entail costs which might lessen your investable funds.
Meanwhile, you can also focus your resources on opening an online trading account first. The online platform you mentioned in your query offers free fundamental and technical seminars for members. Also, they provide regular stocks analysis to guide you.
Bottomline is study study study. All of us are mere students of the unfathomable ways of the market. As they say, all we can do is ride the tide. Other options you might want to consider are opening a PSE Trading Game account (to simulate your skills without losing actual money) and read up in stocks forums, such as Finance Manila.
Goodluck and hope to hear from you.

As a mobile network provider user, you will agree with me that one of the most IMPORTANT and CONFUSING thing is finding a suitable Tariff plan which is the best for One's Choice.
One's Choice in this case means how mobile credit are deducted when making calls, data bonus, sms rates and other benefits.
The GBAM plan because of its flexible above features answers most of my needs hence this made me to think that; Could This Be The Best and Cheapest Tariff Plan On Glo?

EMA Develops Strategy on Adaptive Pathways
Philip Ward is ACT's European editor, phone +44 1244 538583, philipward1@btconnect.com
Pharmaceutical Executive
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has published a final report about its pilot project on adaptive pathways, which it describes as a product development concept for medicines that address patients' unmet medical needs.	The pilot project, which has now ended, showed that adaptive pathways can bring together regulators, health technology assessment (HTA) bodies, healthcare professionals and patients to agree on a prospective plan to generate data on a medicine across its lifespan in areas of unmet medical need.	Adaptive pathways can support medicine development in therapeutic areas where evidence generation is challenging, such as infectious diseases, Alzheimer's disease, degenerative diseases, and rare cancers, according to EMA. These pathways can be defined as a planned, progressive approach to bringing a medicine to patients.	"It is not a new route of marketing authorization; it makes use of existing regulatory tools," the agency stated. "Under this approach, the medicine will first be authorized in a small patient population that is likely to benefit most from the medicine. Then, additional evidence is gathered over time resulting in progressive licensing adaptations to extend or restrict the previously authorized indications of the medicine."	The pilot began in March, 2014. The EMA received 62 applications, 18 of which were selected for in-depth, face-to-face meetings. At the end of the pilot, six of these applications had progressed to receive formal parallel advice by EMA and HTA bodies and one to benefit from simple scientific advice. Most proposals were considered not suitable for adaptive pathways, and the companies were advised to pursue traditional development routes.	The pilot helped to identify aspects for further reflection, including the need for increased involvement of patients to assist in the selection of candidates for adaptive pathways, the definition of methodologically sound strategies of real-world evidence collection to support the assessment of both efficacy and effectiveness, and the potential involvement of payers to provide input on pricing strategies.	EMA plans to explore adaptive pathways in the context of its parallel advice with HTA bodies, which provides a framework to include additional stakeholders (e.g., patients and, if relevant, payers). Medicine developers who are interested in following the adaptive pathways approach should submit a proposal to EMA. To gather the views and proposals from its stakeholders on the adaptive pathways approach, the agency will organize a workshop on December 8th, 2016.	Cooperation between stakeholders and a strong pharmacovigilance system are the basis for a systematic monitoring of the safety and the overall performance of a medicine in clinical practice; these are the two key elements underpinning the adaptive pathways concept, noted EMA.

Electric shock can happen to anyone. You can be exposed to lightening, which is terrible. Also, there are exposures that can result in injuries from job site failures, construction site accidents, combination of water and electricity, falling wires, hitting wires while digging and other causes. People can also be injured when Utility Company equipment fails.
The type of injuries that can result from electricity include brain damage, nerve damage, burns like a sun burn blisters but the blisters are huge, muscle weakness and other injuries. These injuries must be diagnoses as soon as possible after the incident and the plaintiff must seek legal counsel as soon as possible. You need an attorney because the incident must be investigated, not just by the police or the owner of the property, but by the plaintiff's attorney so that no evidence goes missing.
Examples of what causes electrical injuries include, failure of public utility to keep their property in good condition, failure of wiring, concrete charged by electricity, short circuited switches, product liability, water and wiring, and can take place on an amusement ride (Ocean Beach Park, CT where a child had burned hands) from direct contact with the high voltage electricity.
Most electrical shocks result in minor burns, but because our body is mostly water, and electricity carries through water, there can be serious internal damage, which can produce a complex pattern of injury and clinical manifestations. Because we are all different, no one can predict how bad an eclectic injury will be. The issues include voltage, amperage, path through the body, and environmental conditions, to name a few. Equipment that is not properly grounded can cause severe electrical injury or electrocution. Without proper grounding, a 120V conductor might touch metal and fail contact a metal enclosure or casing and not operate any circuit protection.
Accidental contact with exposed parts of electrical appliances or wiring, flashing of electric arcs from high-voltage power lines, lightning, machinery or occupational-related exposures are all possible causes of electrical injury. High-voltage electrical trauma if it does not kill you can cause the injured person to have amputations, brain damage or other injuries.
Attorneys should be involved to make sure that the Workers Compensation Claim is properly filed, that the insurance company is doing the right thing or that they be brought to court and that the reasons for the failures are found out and that if a lawsuit can be brought that it be started as quickly as possible.
Even without visible burns, electric shock survivors may be faced with long-term muscular pain and discomfort, fatigue, headache, problems with nerves and sensation, balance and coordination, and other symptoms. Electrical injury leads to problems with cognitive function, thought processes, ability to think properly, mood swings, emotional problems, speed of loss of attention span, loss of concentration and other psychological problems.
Electrical injury may result in post-traumatic psychiatric disorders which can be as life-changing and all injured people should get treatments with consultants and a supportive environment to facilitate rehabilitation, return to past activities, employment, and normal functioning.
If you have been injured in a ELECTRIC accident you should call The Ahearne Law Firm, PLLC, as soon as possible. Make sure that you take photographs because the situation can change, the snow and ice or roadway can change, the bruises heal. Photographs are a valuable litigation tool.

The pretravel consultation provides an ideal opportunity to check whether patients are up to date with their routine immunisations.
Until the early 1990s most GPs would routinely administer to the intending traveller the now superseded cholera and typhoid vaccines and send them on their way. Unfortunately, these older vaccines gave variable protection, often made the recipients feel quite unwell and were discontinued some years after the introduction of a range of newer vaccines.
The first of these newer vaccines was the active hepatitis A vaccine Havrix, which in 1993 became the forerunner of a new generation of vaccines offering superior efficacy and a significantly lower side effect profile. For today's traveller, GPs can now select from over 25 vaccines, with many different brands, formulations and combinations available. Each has its own specific delivery mode, indications, risk of adverse reactions, precautions and contraindications, and all may be promoted heavily. The resultant plethora of information is potentially confusing to both medical practitioners and their travelling patients.

Penny, Pete, Paul and the possibilities of public education
Joe Nathan / 2012, Columns (J. Nathan) / alternative schools, public education, teachers /	1 Comment
In some ways, Penny, Pete and Paul were very different. Penny was a blonde, blue-eyed teenager who grew up on a farm in East Central Minnesota, with 10 younger brothers and sisters. Pete, who sometimes colored his hair, lived in a western Twin Cities suburb with his single parent mom. Paul was a tall, handsome, angry African American teenager in St. Paul. As we conclude 2012 and look ahead, their stories help illustrate the possibilities of public education.
By the time she was in 11th grade in her rural high school, Penny, the oldest in her family, was a cheerleader and member of the National Honor Society.
But there was turmoil at home. The family farm was in financial trouble. Her parents often argued. Penny assumed many responsibilities at home. Unfortunately, she looked elsewhere for love and comfort, made a mistake, and became pregnant.
She was kicked off the cheerleading squad, removed from the National Honor Society and ridiculed by some students and educators. She was devastated, and thought about suicide.
Fortunately a friend told her about an alternative school in the area. Penny blossomed again. She told a legislative committee that at her new school, "people didn't judge me. They encouraged me. The school probably saved my life."
As Penny told her story, the hearing room was very quiet. Conversations stopped. There were many moist eyes.
Pete's parents didn't just argue, they divorced. He often was bored in school. He wanted to drop out, but his mother convinced him to stay. So, as he later told legislators, he earned barely passing grades in "dummy English, dummy math and dummy social studies in the morning, and then worked at a fast food franchise in the afternoon." They liked his work, and made him an assistant manager.
Then he heard about Post Secondary Enrollment Options. The University of Minnesota allowed him to take a course. He earned an "A." That led to attending the University of Minnesota fulltime under PSEO. He did very well.
Finally, there is Paul, from a classic inner city family facing many challenges. He was angry at the world, and hated school. He made many mistakes, including fighting at his high school. Finally he was kicked out, and landed in a school where I taught. He mostly slept in classes for several weeks.
One day a teacher asked him to join a class on "Protect your Rights and Money." Paul used "street smarts" to help solve consumer problems that families and community members referred to the class. He did well, and appeared in a newspaper story about the class.
On seeing the story, Paul told his teacher, "I often thought I might have my name in the paper, and perhaps my picture. But I never thought it would be for something good."
Like Penny and Pete, Paul graduated. He worked for Prince, the recording artist. Then he opened a recording arts studio and encountered many other young men, years younger. They shared his love of music and dislike of traditional schools.
With help from some educators, Paul founded the High School for Recording Arts, a charter public school that helps previously unsuccessful students develop stronger skills and positive attitudes. Students must apply to some form of higher education before they can graduate.
Recently Junior Achievement gave the school its top high school company in the US award, because HSRA students have produced "You-Tube" videos on public service topics (like "stay in school.") under contracts from companies including State Farm Insurance and Verizon.
Over the last 40 years. I've seen many youngsters like those above (although I did not use their real names). We need to acknowledge the power of public education and educators, as we work to help reach even more. Public education is powerful.
Since 1970, Joe Nathan has been a public school teacher, administrator, parent, PTA president, and researcher. He now directs the Center for School Change. Reactions welcome, joe@centerforschoolchange.org.
« Surprising, encouraging Minnesota results on International math/science tests	» Five Priorities for 2013
Anne Nicolai
Last week I had a conversation with a friend who has been a public school teacher and administrator, and who established and taught in Montessori schools in Spain. She was lamenting the poor quality of public education in the U.S. today, and I agreed, as I noticed the huge differences between my son's private education through elementary and junior high, and the public high school he attended. So today I was happy to see this encouraging article from Joe Nathan.

Maryse Goudreau in Chandler (2012)
Maryse Goudreau was born in Pointe-à-la-Croix, on the Gaspé Peninsula, in 1980. The themes of memory and identity lie at the heart of her research in photography.
EXHIBIT: MANIFESTATION POUR LA MÉMOIRE DES QUAIS (EVENT FOR THE MEMORY OF THE DOCKS)
Chandler's dock
Pointe-à-la-Croix, Gaspésie (Québec) | paysagecomposte.blogspot.ca
In the course of her research, the docks of the Gaspé struck her as an emblematic testing ground. The falling into disuse, even the disappearance, of a number of them served her as a pathway in creating an analogy with photographic procedures that are dying out. To make that state of things even more evident, she set in motion different public activities that comprise a singular approach in social photography. Maryse Goudreau is the recipient of research, creation and travel grants from the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec. In 2012-2013, Espace F (Matane), the artist centers Vaste et Vague (Carleton-sur-Mer) and La tortue bleue (Kamouraska), the Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario (Sudbury, Ontario) and VU centre de diffusion et de production de la photographie (Quebec City) devoted a solo exhibit to her work.
EXHIBIT AT THE RENCONTRES: MANIFESTATION POUR LA MÉMOIRE DES QUAIS (EVENT FOR THE MEMORY OF THE DOCKS)
Photographer Maryse Goudreau is looking for 400 extras to be part of a group photo that will convey in an image the tragic disappearance that looms over the Chandler dock. The photographer will take a picture with a camera dating from the 1870s and using a process from the time called humid collodion. The image captured on glass plates will be processed and developed in a portable darkroom installed on the dock. The extras will get to discover the mysteries of the procedures of the early days of photography. Participants will also receive a signed copy of the photograph.

Finance sites erroneously show Amazon, Apple, other stocks crashing
By Mike Murphy
Test data from Nasdaq apparently mistakenly put onto live sites
No, Amazon and Apple stock did not crash Monday. And if you held Mattel stock, you're not suddenly rich.
But incorrect stock data on the popular Google Finance, Yahoo Finance and Bloomberg sites appeared to be freaking out some investors Monday evening, after test data was apparently misinterpreted by third-party providers to those sites.
As of 11 p.m. Eastern, Google Finance said Amazon.com Inc. shares were down more than 87%, to $123.47. Previously, Yahoo Finance said Amazon was down 74%, to $248.49. In reality, Amazon AMZN, -1.48% finished the day down 1.5%, at $953.66, and was up 0.1% in after-hours trading, according to FactSet.
Apple Inc. shares were similarly skewed, with both Google and Yahoo Finance saying they were down 14%, also to $123.47. Actually, Apple AAPL, -0.36% ended the day down just 0.4%, at $143.50, according to FactSet, and was up slightly in after-hours trading.
$123.47 — or amounts close to that — appeared to be the common denominator for the test data, wildly skewing some stocks down to that level while others skyrocketed up to it. For example, the test data sent eBay Inc. EBAY, -0.92% soaring 253%, Mattel Inc. MAT, -2.51% skyrocketing 473% and Microsoft Corp. MSFT, -1.10% up 79%.
Page views to MarketWatch's stock pages — which remained accurate — soared as investors double-checked exactly what was going on Monday evening.
A spokesman for Nasdaq put the blame on third-party data providers.
"As part of its normal process, the UTP distributed test data and certain third parties improperly propagated the data. Nasdaq is working with third-party vendors to resolve the matter," a Nasdaq spokesman said late Monday.
The spokesman speculated that the day's early close might have caused confusion with some closing prices for a number of third parties, including Bloomberg and Yahoo, but emphasized that no trades were affected by the erroneous quotes.
Yahoo Finance and Bloomberg appeared to be showing correct ticker data as of 11 p.m. Eastern, but Google Finance was still showing the test data.
Google's website says Swiss-based SIX Financial Information provides end-of-day prices, and New York-based Interactive Data Real-Time Services, Inc. provides intra-day prices. Google, SIX Financial Information and Interactive Data Real-Time Services' parent company, Intercontinental Exchange, did not immediately respond for comment.

We can roll a ring of specialty alloy metal up to 336 inches (28 feet) in diameter for use in spacecraft, submarines and other advanced applications.
Not all the rings in space go around Saturn.
Today's returnable, reusable spacecraft are built from ultra-strong metal rings forged by ATI.
Low-cost space travel has a nice ring to it.
Mercury, Apollo, and the Space Shuttle program launched American space leadership. But a hundred years from now, when our descendants are warping off to far galaxies, the U.S. space program may be historically famous for something else: bringing down the cost of space by ratcheting up entrepreneurship. And ATI's forged rocket rings will probably still be playing a role.
The rings that rule
We've been rolling seamless, high-strength forged rings for building rockets since the dawn of space travel. They're essential structural components for containing engine thrust and withstanding the unimaginable g-forces and thermal shock of launching a vehicle beyond the atmosphere and returning it to earth intact.
Today it's Space 2.0, with the focus on the next generation space launch systems. Our rocket rings, up to 10 feet tall and 28 feet in diameter and forged from incredibly strong alloys of aluminum and steel, are the building blocks for new rocket designs. These new rockets, created by a new generation of entrepreneurial innovators, make launch and recovery routine, safe, recyclable and affordable.
And, need we say it? They run rings around the competition.

Anti-matter is the most efficient reaction known to us currently. But we have no idea how to create sufficient quantities to be useful to us, store it en masse (we don't have the infrastructure now or possibly in 2050 to start building massive magnetic-confinement centers) and I have doubts as to whether we will have enough of a space presence in 2050 for it to be useful for us in interplanetary journeying. Fusion-rockets, ion drives and beamed propulsion would seemly be a lot more convenient and economic for such tasks.
An "intelligent" civilization discovers how to use antimatter and blows up its planet.
I find that unlikely, since a civilization advanced enough to make quantities of antimatter sufficient to deal any real damage to their planet would also have sophisticated space-travel capabilities and the required magnetic storage facilities, logically making the antimatter in planetary-orbit or on a moon. This is just a question of logistics - antimatter is VERY hard to make. Don't be fooled by the fact that we've made ~400 antihydrogen atoms, along with several other antiparticles. These experiments cost astounding amounts of energy for a few nanograms of the stuff. With current technology today (and into the predictable future), antimatter will not reach production levels wherein it can pose as a menace to civilization. By the time it does, assuming we survive until then, humanity (and by following the Law of Mediocrity, most other alien civilizations at our level as well) should be adequately equipped to contain it.
Pure antimatter is bad fuel for starship. You want to have 1 petawatt of thrust power on engine with 75% efficiency? Say hello to 500 gigawatts of deadly gamma-ray radiation, which will be emitted from the reaction zone. Annihilation produces 2/3 of charged pions, which can be used to produce thrust in a magnetic nozzle, while 1/3 of neutral pions cannot be deflected and will beam to all directions, including ship itself. These neutral pions decays to gamma quants shortly, so you must have extremely massive gamma ray protection, and put engines very far away from your payload.
The better way we can use antimatter in ship propulsion is by using antiproton-induced nuclear fusion. This is "easy" way to achieve fusion temperatures in the fuel pellet. Also, amounts of antimatter needed to be stored onboard the ship is some nanograms instead of 40% of ship's mass in case of a pure antimatter rocket. This is much more easy technologically, we could even imagine onboard antimatter plant instead of a storage.
As I estimate humanity, the first thing they will do as soon as enough antimatter can be produced is building bombs with it.
Source of the post we could even imagine onboard antimatter plant instead of a storage.
I forgot the length of time but I remember reading an article about Brookhaven achieving a new record for stability and containment of antimatter (I think it was antihelium), it was something like 300 microseconds if I remember correctly.
I dont think this is even needed as fuel, as within 100 years or so (according to the Breakthrough Starship Program) we should be capable of reaching the Alpha/Proxima Centauri system in less than 50 years. We could get there via generation ships.

Add us to your home screen to visit us easier and faster
After making himself known the sudden death of Octavio Ocaña, known for its endearing character of 'Benito Rivers' in 'Neighbors', the cast of the comedy series, as well as famous like Luis Manuel Ávila, Érika Buenfil, Alan Estrada and more, they moved by giving him the last goodbye to the 22-year-old actor, who passed away on the afternoon of October 29.
One of the first to do so was Elías Solorio, who through his official Twitter account shared an emotional farewell message for the young interpreter.
"I can not believe it. Rest in peace, my dear Octavio. You leave all of us who met you very sad. Have a good trip, Benito ", highlighted the producer.
The next was
Eduardo Spain,
who, in addition to being dismayed by the sudden death of his partner, dedicated loving words to him.
"We are undone. I can't sleep, I can't stop crying and shaking. RIP Octavio Ocaña, our beloved Benito in #Neighbors. My condolences to his parents and sisters. A big hug full of love. Thank you for so many laughs and for sharing your angel. "
Gina holguin
She was also shocked at the sensitive death of her partner. "Rest in peace, dear Octavio. Your loss hurts me a lot. You leave a huge void for all of us who knew you. I will always remember you with that smile that you brought on the forums. See you soon".
Dario Ripoll, Due to the strange circumstances in which his partner from 'Necinos' died, he noted: "I still have not quite assimilated the death of my partner, my friend @octapl with whom I lived and who I saw grow up for 16 years, I have anger and pain There is no doubt that we are alone, there is no government to protect us, fly high my Benito, we are going to miss you a lot ".
"I am heartbroken for your departure. My condolences to your dear family. Rest in peace Octavio of my heart," he said. Ana Bertha Espín. "There is a meeting. Two have already arrived. See you there," he said. Paul Valentine in reference to Octavio Ocaña and Polo Ortín, 'Don Roque' in 'Necinos', who died in August 2016.
Luis Manuel Avila, who worked with him in 'Una Familia P. Luche', was another of the celebrities who added to the condolences. "Incredible news, our condolences to all his family, friends, colleagues and followers."
The unfortunate departure of the young man did not go unnoticed by Alan Estrada, who had the opportunity to work with him in the cinema in 2008: "My condolences to Octavio Ocaña's family, I worked with him on Amor letter by letter and his premature departure is terrible news. QUEPD"
Juan Pablo Gil, Mauricio Mancera, Erika Buenfil, Mauricio Martínez, Luis Gatita, Malillany Marín and more, they also regretted the departure of the young man on social networks.
What happened to Octavio Ocaña?
So far, few details are known about the
death of the 22-year-old actor,
since his relatives have not made any statements in this regard. However, it transpired that the
performer of 'Benito Rivers'
was allegedly shot inside his vehicle in the municipality of Cuautitlán Izcalli.
