Egg mice for kids is the idea for breakfast. Instead of radishes, you can decorate with any other vegetables or fruits. You can make the stuffed eggs, but it depends on the age of the baby.
radishes (or other vegetables) 1 pcs.
Cut hard-boiled eggs lengthwise into halves. Cut cheese into small pieces for eyes, ears, and tail. Using knife make holes for eyes and ears and place here cut the cheese. Add the tails. Garnish fruit or vegetables. Enjoy your meal!!!


Intel launched it's Kaby-G CPU with AMD graphics proving that their internal GPU is as broken as SemiAccurate has been claiming. We haven't been fans of the architecture for a while, but today the company has also confirmed that their 10nm process is broken too.
The company released the long rumored Kaby-G CPU/MCM/GPUl. It is such a momentous occasion of the company, it didn't even merit an entry on their press page, just a smarmy 'blog' coupled with denied preferential briefings to those that tow the line. Take a Kaby Lake CPU, add an AMD GPU, slap a stack of HBM2 on the side, and call it a win. It isn't unless you are talking about AMD. Why? It's technical.
So what is the problem? First Intel touts this as a big win for EMIB, a silicon interposer strip put in to their package. This saves cost over a full interposer like AMD has used but adds significant expense to the package cost. Unlike what Intel says, it is not cheap, not even close, only cheap*ER* than a full interposer if the package substrate with EMIB yields well. Intel will probably say it is incredible, best yields ever, but like their processes of late, big grain of salt until it is independently verified. Ironically the CPU to GPU connection isn't an EMIB based trace, it is just PCIe pulled off the die and routed through the normal substrate.
The first problem comes from heat. Intel is claiming that Kaby-G will enable thinner, smaller laptops. It will meet half of those claims vs a discrete GPU, with consequences. The questionable half is the thinner part, SemiAccurate can see the smaller side, Kaby-G will reduce board area, but thinner is a stretch. If you can put a similar GPU in a package as thick as the Kaby-non-G CPU, then it won't save height, just board area. Intel for some reason doesn't explore this area of thought in their official releases.
Lighter is also a distant possibility but you are talking very low single digit grams if that, countered by other factors. How much does <5cm^2 of ultra-thin PCB weigh again? Add to that the much larger metal stiffening ring around the whole package and it is unlikely to be a weight win at all, last time SemiAccurate checked, dense metal weighed more than light organic substrate per unit area. Strangely Intel did not go into any details about weight in their releases either.
Then there is the heat problem. Take a look at the Intel supplied 'win' picture for Kaby-G. It takes a large board area and shrinks it down to a significantly smaller but undisclosed footprint. We won't quibble about Intel stacking the area deck by using an AMD GPU with GDDR5 instead of an AMD GPU with HBM2 that takes up ~1/2 the area, even then it would be an area win for Kaby-G.
Back to heat though, take the two hottest parts of a modern laptop and put them in an area significantly less than half of what it was. You might recall that SemiAccurate called Ultrabooks, "Shiny things for the stupid" because on the engineering side they were simply a bad idea for many reasons, heat being one of them. Intel can't cool their own CPUs in this form factor and instead lie to the press who repeats that lie until it becomes truth. If you can't cool a 15W CPU in a given form factor, capping the average TDP at 9W in firmware somehow allows them to run it at the same clocks and ignore physics? Most sites repeat this line of BS because they are aware Intel cuts out sites that don't play ball with their messaging.
So if you can't cool a CPU in a given area and a GPU puts out even more wattage than the CPU, reducing their area to, oh lets call it 1/3 of what it was by eyeballing the supplied pictures, is going to make things better? See why Intel didn't allow real press questions on this one? Add in heat soak from one unit to the other and you have a right mess. That said you will be able to spot the Kaby-G devices quite easily, just look for the glowing orange spot on the bottom. You can also identify their owners, look for the bandage through the singed hole in their jeans, skinny jeans, no one with half a brain would buy this over an AMD APU.
This also might explain why Intel isn't revealing a single spec about this CPU. No clocks, no shader counts, no areas, no nothing. If they did, well, you would see why coupling two hot devices in a small area is a really bad idea, PR messaging notwithstanding. In our experience PR wins on the internet, physics in the real world, so now you can make an informed decision on your next laptop.
Area also bites in another place, sockets. It doesn't take a keen eye to realize that the Kaby-G socket is not a standard Intel socket, not even close. This means laptop only, something which Intel readily admits to, but also likely cuts them out of the desktop market. According to SemiAccurate's OEM sources, Kaby-G is going to be an extremely low volume halo product. This is doable in modern laptops because most have bespoke board designs, desktops are not in the same boat. The cost overheads likely will never justify a Kaby-G desktop even if Intel sorely wants it, bags of MDF not-a-bribe notwithstanding. Then there is the slight problem of losing 8 or 16 PCIe lanes from the meager few Kaby has to offer, anyone see the upside in a gaming board with half a slot free best case?
That brings us to the most interesting bit, what OEMs have been telling SemiAccurate that about Intel's pitch for Kaby-G.


Have you ever had a conversation with someone where you were trying to explain to them how you were distantly related to someone? I'm talking about someone other than your mother, father, sister or brother. When talking about our relatives we commonly use the titles of cousin, aunt, uncle, grandparents, great grandparents, but when talking about someone who is very distantly related it can get a little tricky, so we try to explain using as much detail as possible. We may say "he is my father's brother, my uncle Tom's daughter, Karen's grandson Michael", which is quite lengthy and can be somewhat confusing. It would be easier to say Michael is my first cousin twice removed on my father's side, which has the same information, but less confusing.
The level or the degree of a cousin's relationship is based on the most recent direct ancestor that the two of you have in common. So let's start with our closest and most direct cousin and work our way back.
Who is Your First Cousin?
Your First Cousin is a child of your aunt or uncle, also known as your parent's niece or nephew. This person is considered to be your first cousin. You share one set of grandparents with this cousin, but you do not share the same parents. Look at the chart below and find yourself (You) and then find your first cousin. That is pretty straight forward relationship.
What makes them a Second Cousin?
Your second cousin is the grandchild of your grand-aunt or grand-uncle, also known as the child of your parents' first cousin and you share the same set of great-grandparents with your second cousin. You do not have the same grandparents though. Their grandparents are your grandaunt and granduncle. More commonly, many people use great aunt or great uncle, but technically they are grandaunt and granduncle. They are the siblings of your grandparents. Look at the chart below and find yourself and then find your second cousin.
How about those Third Cousins?
Your Third Cousin are fairly distantly related, but you both share the same set of great-great-grandparents. Your third cousin is the child of your parents' second cousin. They are the great-grandchild of your great-grand-aunt or great-grand-uncle. You share a set of great-great-grandparents with your third cousin. As for your Fourth cousin, they share a set of great-great-great-grandparents with you. Look at the chart below and find yourself and then find your third cousin.
Do You have any Double First Cousins?
Just to complicate matters let's talk about Double First Cousins. If two siblings let's say brothers in one family marry two siblings, sisters from another family and each couple has a child, these two children are called double first cousins. The word double in addition to the first cousin term is because they share the same four grandparents. In typical, first cousins share only one set of common grandparents, while double first cousins share both sets of grandparents.
What does the term "Once Removed" mean?
The term "once removed" is used to explain the relationships of cousins of different generations. A cousin who is "once removed" means one generation before or after you. Your first cousin's child is your first cousin once removed, and your mother's first cousin is also your first cousin once removed. One was born from the generation after you and the other was born in the generation before. Removed cousin relationships are measured by the generation difference, not age.
Twice removed means that there is a two-generation difference. As in example above Michael is first cousin twice removed. Your grandmother's first cousin would be your first cousin, twice removed because again you are separated by two generations. The person was born two generations after or before you.
Cousin relationships can be any combination of first, second, third etc, and also be once, or twice removed, and so on. Look at the chart below and find yourself and then find a first cousin once removed and a first cousin twice removed.
How is one a Grand or a Great?
Grandparents and great-grandparents are very commonly used titles for the parents and grandparents of our parents. Aunts and uncles become grand when they are the siblings of grandparents, though we rarely call them grandaunts or uncles, we usually call them great aunts and uncles, but technically, your parents' aunts and uncles are your grand aunts and uncles. The aunts and uncles of your great grandparents would be your great-grand aunts and uncles.
Also, if your niece had a child, it is common for you to say "my niece's child Amber", but the child can also be referred to as your grandniece. Your grandniece's child would be your great-grandniece, this is identical to that of grandchild and great grandchild.
The chart below is an example of the levels/degrees of family relationships This chart serves as a visual to help determine the correct titles of your relatives. ItIt It represents the relationships for either your mother's or your father's side of the family.


In general, for monitoring standard MySQL replication, it is common practice to check the Seconds_Behind_Master variable. There are cases, however, where the Seconds_Behind_Master can have a low number, but replication is in fact broken. For checking this more accurately, Percona has written a program called pt-heartbeat, which continuously inserts timestamped data into a single row in a single table on the master and verifies the data on the slave. More information about the program itself can be found in the guide here. pt-heartbeat is compatible with all forks of MySQL, including MariaDB, Percona, and MySQL Community Edition. In this post, I will explain how you can configure this using Puppet and Nagios on a CentOS 6 system (it should be noted that Zabbix can be used for this as well).
One of the critical prerequisites for setting up pt-heartbeat monitoring is that both the master and the slave(s) have their clocks properly synchronized with NTP. If you're using Puppet, an easy way of managing this is to use the puppetlabs/ntp Forge module. An out-of-sync system clock can result in a skew of the seconds of delay count. This guide also uses Nagios and NRPE with exported configurations through PuppetDB in the example code. However, this is not necessary in order to monitor pt-heartbeat. You would just leave off the "@@nagios_service" resources in your Puppet manifests. Finally, this assumes that you are using the puppetlabs/mysql Forge module to manage MySQL on the server. It is possible, however, to use this example with a manually-configured MySQL server; you will need to add the user account and database manually, though.
Before continuing, I will attempt to explain the purpose of the above parameters. The $heartbeat_mysql_pw parameter is the password of the heartbeat account that will be used to insert rows into and query the Heartbeat database and table. The $mysql_repl_pw parameter is the password of the account that you use for replication between your master and slave. I chose this account because the pmp-check-mysql-replication-running Nagios plugin requires either the SUPER or REPLICATION CLIENT privilege and this account has the latter. If you so choose, you can also use the root account for this, but I personally try to minimize usage of the root account. As recommended in previous posts, you should encrypt your passwords that you store in Hiera with hiera-eyaml. The $server_id parameter is the server_id of the master running the pt-heartbeat daemon, while $master_server_id is the server_id of the master the Nagios plugin will be checking against on the slave. So why are these not one and the same? This is because there are a number of scenarios where a master may also be a slave, and you may also want to check the replication lag on it. However, if you just have a single master in your server topology, you can probably combine these two parameters.
echo "Configuration file not found. Exiting ..."
echo -n "Starting pt-heartbeat service: "
echo -n "Stopping pt-heartbeat service: "
Note that this example requires that the root credentials be stored in /root/.my.cnf, which in this example is managed by the puppetlabs/mysql Forge module.
The top NRPE command, check_mysql_repl_delay, executes Percona's replication delay plugin. This compares the time stamp in the heartbeat table to the system time and throws a warning or an error depending on how many seconds behind it is. You can optionally specify the warning and critical second thresholds with the -w and -c options, respectively. The defaults are 300 seconds as the warning threshold. and 600 seconds as the critical threshold. The bottom command, check_mysql_repl_running, checks if replication is running and if not, alerts Nagios.
Include the percona::heartbeat::slave class in your slave's catalog and trigger a Puppet run on it. If you're using exported resources to manage your Nagios configuration, the two Nagios checks should be automatically configured on your Nagios server. MySQL replication is now being monitored more accurately with pt-heartbeat and Nagios.

Artwork: Energeia (detail) by Yukako Sorai (2015) (soraiyu.com)
In the crucible of the global COVID-19 pandemic, musicians and scholars of Asian religions Fabio Rambelli and Rory Lindsay have created an album with a sound that is profoundly archaic and yet stunningly new. The album is titled Neo Archē, suggesting a new beginning or chapter for the ancient Japanese court music known as gagaku, elements from which meld seamlessly with contemporary, ambient, minimalist, and world music aesthetics and digital technology.
What is Gagaku?
As one of the oldest forms of Japanese music, gagaku (literally "elegant music," 雅楽) includes orchestral music and dances imported and adapted from Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese traditions dating back as early as the fifth century CE. By the fourteenth century,
gagaku was performed by not only families of professional musicians of the Imperial Music Bureau (gagakuryō), but also by noblemen, merchants, and religious specialists from Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines. Today, gagaku is officially recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, and the Gagaku musicians at the Imperial Court in Tokyo are considered the equivalent of living national treasures.
A Unique Sound
Gagaku's unique sound comes from its long, slow tones, free rhythms, complex sound clusters, and controlled dissonance. A typical gagaku ensemble includes several kinds of wind, string, and percussion instruments. In Neo Archē, you'll hear the unmistakable, continuous chords of the Japanese seventeen pipe mouth organ, the shō 笙, punctuated by the sonorous strumming of the bass lute or biwa.
Despite my deep appreciation for gagaku given its historical relationship with Shinto ritual, I haven't exactly been a fan of its dissonant sound. It goes against everything in my training as a classical violinist/violist. But when I trepidatiously hit 'play' on the album's first song, "Early Autumn," I was shocked to find it extremely calming and utterly lovely. "Lontano" (Italian for "far away") and "Lontano 2" embrace the dreamy, atmospheric quality of ambient and new-age music that fans of artists from Brian Eno and Kitarō to Sigur Rós and Eluvium will enjoy. Die-hard gagaku fans may recognize a sampling of the staple piece "Etenraku" in the background of "Il Milione." Personally, I can totally see myself putting Neo Archē on instead of Brain.fm or Spotify's popular "Deep Focus" playlist when I want to focus on my work or tune out and relax. Explore the album and find the song that resonates with you!
Gagaku Revival
How did faculty from the University of California, Santa Barbara come to create a gagaku fusion album in the middle of a pandemic? During one of his many trips to Japan, professor of Religious Studies and East Asian languages and Cultural Studies Fabio Rambelli learned to play the shō under the tutelage of Maestro Bunno Hideaki. Returning to UCSB, Rambelli resolved to share his love of gagaku and increase appreciation of this ancient tradition with his students and peers in the West. Dr. Rory Lindsay, an expert on Tibetan religions and a lecturer in the Department of Religious Studies at UCSB, has been an integral participant in many of Rambelli's gagaku projects, including his study of the gaku-biwa.
Rambelli and Lindsay's love for music goes well beyond the UCSB campus. Rambelli plays the saxophone and flute in his band, "Sofar Sonear," while Lindsay's talent for string instruments also includes the guitar and sitar. Over the summer, Rambelli and Lindsay got together to jam and improvise on FaceTime. Together, their musical facility, academic expertise, and passion for many musical genres combine to create a perfect storm of sound.
According to UNESCO, gagaku "[demonstrates] how multiple cultural traditions can be fused into a unique heritage through constant recreation over time" (UNESCO). Rambelli and Lindsay prove in Neo Archē that gagaku is a dynamic tradition that still has the potential to surprise and delight.

A new crime scene safety video has been produced by the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force (RSLPF).
The initiative is the brainchild of Acting Inspector of Police, Shervon Matthieu, of the Babonneau police station.
"Crime fighting is our business and for the police to conduct a proper investigation where evidence is vital, we should try our best to preserve and protect the crime scene," Matthieu said of the short video production.
Just recently Matthieu launched a personal safety handbook, providing tips to citizens on how to reduce the possibility of being victims of crime.
For his latest project he has expressed his gratitude to the Almighty, Director and Producer of the video, Ted Sandiford, Saralee Williams, Forensic Scientist Fernanda Henry for all the help, especially with the crime scene tips, the residents of Babonneau who acted in the short film, his colleagues at the Babonneau station, the Commissioner of Police, and members of the RSLPF.

[ARCHIVED] Sheriff's Office Memorial Day Weekend 2017 Activity Summary
Coconino County, AZ – The Memorial Day weekend recreation activities and the influx of many visitors to Northern Arizona forests and neighborhoods resulted in numerous calls stemming from off-road vehicle traffic, disturbing the peace, emergency medical situations, motorist and public assists, discharging of weapons/target shooting, fire related reports, and multiple attempt to locate and assist other agency requests.
Deputies made well over 100 contacts with off road vehicle drivers throughout Coconino County both in response to incidents such accidents, disturbing the peace reports, and for proactive educational reasons. In addition to off-road vehicle accidents, two accidents were reported involving vehicle collisions with deer/elk on the roadways. Deputies in the Page area made over a dozen contacts with boaters on Lake Powell.
Deputies throughout the county conducted 87 traffic stops during the height of the weekend, resulting in 21 citations / reports, 14 written warnings, 40 repair orders, two DUI arrests, two drug arrests, and the arrest of an individual on an outstanding felony warrant.
Other arrests over the weekend included three individuals for separate incidents of aggravated assault, one of these also being for prohibited possession of firearms.
During the weekend the Sheriff's Office responded to two separate drowning reports and eight different search and rescue events. Several other search and rescue calls were handled as well but self-resolved or fell under the jurisdiction of other agencies.
Search and Rescue events included two investigative search assists for Yavapai County; call out for two 10-year-olds and a 12-year old missing from a campsite off of SR89A (after several hours they returned to safely to camp); call out for missing child at Bear Canyon Lake; family of five rescued from Big Sink outside of Page, AZ when their vehicle broke down; 26 year-old female lost while driving Stoneman Lake Rd; 24 year old male needing medical assistance after hiking most of Humphrey's Peak trail; and an overdue adult female, her adult son and juvenile daughter who were over due from hiking Humphrey's Peak (they later reported to a family member they were not in need of assistance). Sheriff's Office deputies also responded to several calls involving lost/found horses.
The Coconino County Detention Facility Flagstaff Facility which receives arrested persons from Coconino Sheriff's Office, Flagstaff Police Department, Northern Arizona University Police, Williams Police, and the Arizona Department of Public Safety processed over 100 bookings from noon on May 26, 2017 through midnight May 29, 2017. Bookings included two DUI's (individuals under age 21), 12 DUI's (individuals over age 21); six alcohol related bookings, five domestic violence related bookings, 29 other felony bookings and 54 other misdemeanor bookings. The Coconino County Detention Facility in Page processed 8 bookings.
The Sheriff's Office thanks all those individuals and other public safety agencies who assisted with responses during this holiday weekend.


This is one of the most accessible and entertaining ways to raise money for a cause. Organizing a dinner may not seem too special, but it is precisely the simple act of getting together to share a meal and have a pleasant chat that makes people more willing to open their souls and their wallets.
We are all fond of socializing and like to take part in dinners where you can have a drink, talk with friends and meet new people.
Make sure the food and drinks are great and keep your audience entertained. If you want to have, your donors remember your special event fundraising idea, get the right entertainer.
Someone like Joe Castillo could help you get your donors engaged in your cause through his unique art show.
If you want to host a special charity event, you have to do more than just choosing a unique cause and talking about it. You have to go that extra step and make it special.
Moreover, nothing says special event fundraising like wine tasting. Not only will you attendees enjoy the idea because of its inherent elegance, but it also won't cost you too much.
All you have to do is find a decent venue and make a deal with a local winery that is interested in being represented in your fundraising event.
Of course, you cannot have a special event without proper entertainment. For this kind of events, we recommend someone like Heidi Schwartz or Marc Eckel. Their unique talents will blend in perfectly with the overall theme of the event.
Holidays are the best time of the year to convince people to donate. They are more likely to make donations, so get together with your team and put a special event fundraising plan together before the holidays.
It is no surprise that the best time of the year to do this is Christmas, but you should also consider the rest of the holidays as well.
Right now, you can still focus on an Easter-themed event, and try to collect funds by getting people to buy holiday cards, or simply asking them to donate as much as they can afford to help others enjoy the holiday as well.
Use sports to make a special fundraising event fun and help people donate in a fun and healthy way. This fundraising method is engaging, especially if you plan on having children participate in competitions. Both them and their parents are going to be thrilled by the sense of fighting for a right cause and being part of a team.
You can get parents to donate through a subscription fee, and you can also sell food or beverages to raise more money for your fundraising cause as well. As for the type of sports, there are so many options you should just pick one that your community likes best. What matters is ensuring people enjoy the event and reaching your funding goal.
In the end, it all depends on your skills and your ability to know your audience. Experience shows us which patterns work better than others, and which special event fundraising ideas should be prioritized. We believe the ideas we've mentioned above are part of the patterns that are more likely to work in your favor.
We hope that you are more confident regarding your next fundraising plan now. If we can also help you get professional entertainers for your special occasion, contact us right away and you'll be able to organize a memorable event.


Here are some gender-neutral college gift ideas for everyone you know!
College birthday gifts are tough. When you're invited to parties, most of the time you don't bring a gift like you would in high school. But what about those special besties you want to celebrate? How do you find affordable birthday gifts that are also memorable?
We've got you covered. Here are the best affordable birthday gifts for college friends.
Many times, it's best to keep it simple. Gift cards may seem kind of impersonal, but if you put in some extra thought, they can be the most useful and welcomed affordable birthday gifts around.
Think about the stores your friend likes to shop at or whether they're a Dunkin' or Starbucks type of person. Know a bookworm? Try a local shop or your university's book store. No one is going to turn down a gas card or supermarket card either, especially if things are tight. Listen to what your pal's been needing and get them a card that applies to their life.
For a little extra something, include their favorite candies in a bag with the gift card and make them a card yourself. Everyone likes being reminded that they mean something to you, so don't be afraid to get mushy.
Finding a scent your friend loves is no easy task — so if you do it right, it will mean a lot to them.
Other houseware goods you can pair with or give on their own are mugs and blankets. I once bought a friend a Snuggie that she still uses years later and once received a mermaid blanket that I love.
Laptop stickers are in right now. Rarely do I see someone on campus who's laptop isn't completely decorated with logos and pictures of things they like.
These make amazing affordable birthday gifts. If you know your friend's favorite brands, TV shows, bands or come across something you know they'd think is cool, get them a sticker or two! A friend once gave me a Minnie Mouse bow laptop sticker (because I'm one of those Disney freaks) that makes me smile every time I open my computer.
They may seem stereotypically girly, but I dare any guy to try a face mask and not get hooked! Face masks come in all scents and functions. Buy a fruity brightening one for the bubbly friend who's always on the run or try a calming destress mask for the friend that can use a break from exam season.
Pair them with other small toiletries like scented sanitizers (my obsession) or bath bombs for a DIY spa package. Face masks are super cheap and often come in packs, so consider making a night out of it! Something you can do together is always memorable.
Speaking of which, one of the best college birthday gifts you can give is an experience. Offering to pay for a friend's movie ticket, dinner, or drinks one night gives you a way to make memories and have a good time without stressing over buying something they may not need or like. If you know your friend doesn't want any material gift or can't come up with something, plan a night out that you can cover.
And if that's not really their thing, plan a night in. Buy their favorite snacks and rent a movie they like. Spending time with your friends is way more valuable than anything else.
Buying or baking a cake for your friend on their birthday is one of the sweetest (literally) things you can do for someone. My old roommate and I used to always decorate each other's birthday cakes together, and it became a tradition we looked forward to each year.
Boxed cake or cookie mixes are almost always on sale somewhere, but if you're up for the challenge, bake something from scratch! Just make sure you save some for yourself.
What are your favorite college birthday gifts?
What gifts will you be giving your friends when it's their special day? What about the best gift someone has given you for your birthday? Do you have any go-to affordable birthday gifts? Let us know in the comments!

UNDERSTANDING FUTURE WARS AND HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE NEW THREAT LANDSCAPE

Clausewitz treatise 'On War' is indeed seminal, as the essence of nature of war…


Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) is a sub-discipline of ABA, which is the application of the science of behavior. ABA emphasizes the use of operant and respondent procedures to produce behavior change. Behavior Analysis as a science has very explicit goals. Prediction and control of behavior, with an emphasis on control, are the objectives of behavior analysis (Hayes & Brownstein, 1986). OBM has commonalities with the field of Industrial– Organizational Psychology, all relating to the behavior of people in the workplace. There are many differences between the two fields as well. Industrial– Organizational Psychology is based on theory and has a focus on topics such as personnel selection and placement. OBM is guided by a single theory of human behavior and has historically emphasized identification and modification of the environmental variables that affect directly observable or verifiable employee performance (Bucklin, Alvero, Dickinson, Austin, & Jackson, 2000).
The works of Watson and Skinner have heavily influenced the field of OBM. Skinner's applications of behavioral principles to instructional design served as a starting point for the use of the science of behavior in the workplace. Even before OBM was viewed as a field, Fredrick Taylor advocated for the use of the scientific method to improve employee and organizational performance. The Journal of Organizational Behavior Management (JOBM) began publication in 1977 and is the main outlet for the field today. By 1977 over 40 articles on OBM had been published in other journals and at least one OBM consulting firm had been established. Aubrey Daniels was the first editor of JOBM. The journal is published by Haworth Press and is in its 32nd volume. It has recently been ranked as having the third highest impact factor among applied psychology journals according to the Journal Citation Reports published by Thompson/ISI Publishers (Hantula, 2005). There are a number of graduate programs in OBM that have been established at various universities. Graduates of these programs work in the private sector as external consultant, as internal consultants for organizations, or as program managers in the health and human services industry. Graduates also work in academia.
The management of individual employee or a group of employees through the application of behavioral principles is called Performance Management (PM). The PM process usually involves the analysis of antecedents and consequences supporting the behaviors of individuals or groups within the organization and manipulating these variables to either decrease unproductive or increase productive performance (Austin, 2000; Daniels & Daniels, 2004; Diener et al., 2009). Common interventions used in PM include goal setting, feedback, job aids, token systems, lottery systems, etc. (Diener et al., 2009).
Behavior-based safety focuses on the analysis and alteration of work environments to reduce injuries and promote safe behavior among leaders and employees. This family of evidence-based interventions, which have traditionally focused on safety communication, feedback,and reinforcement processes, can be applied to compliment and enhance traditional safety controls. The first priority in safety is always to eliminate occupational hazards from the work environment (http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/engcontrols/). The next priorities are substitution and engineering controls. Behavioral processes would be best categorized as administrative controls that can be used to promote the safety priority and protective behaviors at all levels of an organization.


The effectiveness of an emergency response plan relies heavily on team members knowing their roles.
Earthquakes happen. So do tornados, hurricanes, power outages, floods, structural failures, explosions, armed assaults, and plagues of locusts. It all depends, one would suppose, on who or what force is aggravated. When a building starts filling with smoke (or water) or any one of a myriad of other unplanned incidents occurs, the outcome may well depend on how the organization's emergency management team has done its job.
Emergency management planning may be the buzz phrase of the moment—with good reason. An organization has to have a plan, and this doesn't mean putting a bunch of words on paper. File cabinets are full of those types of plans. When the water is rising all around, it is too late to go digging for a binder.
Emergency Planning: What's Holding You Back?
In January 2008, TFM featured an article containing results of a survey about the involvement of facility management (FM) professionals in emergency planning as well as the status of their preparedness plans ["Emergency Measures In A Post 9/11 World"].This article is a follow up, with the research team presenting a snapshot of its most recent survey on the subject. In addition to the author, research team members were Suzanne Kennedy, CFM, professor and department head, Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston, MA and Kathy O. Roper, CFM, CFMJ, MCR, LEED AP, professor, Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA. Research assistant was Traci DiSalvatore.
On 9/11, more than 18,000 people evacuated safely from the World Trade Center complex in the one hour, 42 minutes, and five seconds between the first jet hitting the Towers and the last building to collapse.
So a determination was made by the research team in 2007 to explore the reality of these key elements of emergency planning. The goal of the process was to determine if, in fact, the anecdotal evidence was a better picture of the state of evacuation planning than might be evidenced in business reports.
When this query was correlated to questions two and four (which confirmed that the FM operations were primarily responsible for this function), it became even more clear that facility professionals have the opportunity to address evacuation and disaster recovery planning, but in many cases, are not stepping up to this responsibility.
This was a difficult finding for the research team, but it was important information to share with the FM community. The planning conducted in 1993 by the Port Authority building team resulted in saving thousands of lives. The results speak again for themselves; 95% of the people below where the planes hit the WTC on 9/11 evacuated safely.
It was clear to the research team that further work was needed to determine why the survey garnered the results that it did. And it was determined that a follow up survey to the 100 facility executives who participated in the first research project could shed some light on what the barriers to better planning and implementation of emergency and disaster recovery processes were. Therefore, a new survey was administered in Spring 2008 to the same sample.
Typical of the remarks in this section were several notes about issues of territoriality and "silo" problems. It was difficult for the research team to understand why any other priority could be ultimately more important than saving the lives of employees, but that seemed to be the unfortunate inference from this question. Money and personnel were running a close second.
Question six then asked what methods the successful facility managers (fms) used to overcome the obstacles to effective planning in this critical area. More than half of the respondents indicated that they met with senior management to explain the impact and combined that with using news, other data, and benchmarks from other companies to support their conversations. But 28.9% of the survey sample felt that they had not overcome the obstacles yet.
Finally, question seven asked what measures would help the fms in the implementation of better emergency/disaster recovery planning (they were asked to select all that would be helpful). More than half of the respondents indicated that benchmarking data and educational tools would be very important.
Surprisingly, almost 54% of the sample felt that "regulatory requirements for emergency evacuation/disaster recovery plans and practice" would be effective in helping to overcome the barriers to moving forward. The inference here was that if any outside authority or agency was to "require" such plans and drills, more attention would be paid to this process by senior management.
It seems the focus remains on how to do what needs to be done, with economic restrictions still impeding many organizations. It should also be noted that another strategic implication of these results is the need for benchmarking data and educational tools to support the fms in their quest to create and implement better emergency/disaster recovery plans and practices.
Unfortunately, as can be seen from the survey results, the answers to some of the questions are still not complete, more than seven years after 9/11.The most important element of implementation of emergency strategies is the commitment of executive level management to the program, the concepts, the responses, and the financial resources to accomplish the plan. But the FM team must take the responsibility for keeping these issues in front of the boardroom occupants until the FM team issatisfied it is ready and equipped to handle a catastrophic building loss.The new standard for all fms to consider is whether or not their organizations could withstand the events of 9/11. Fms should evaluate how their emergency and continuity plans would hold up in that respect.

That means the plan has to be a practical, easily accessed, easily understood outline. It needs to provide direction to those who are intimately familiar with its contents as well as to those who don't have a clue, didn't pay attention when it was published, or may be new to the organization and didn't know there was a plan. Either way, their survival may be dependent on who does what and when.
The elements for most plans, regardless of the size and scope of an organization, are similar. The plan begins with both long-term and short-term objectives, which, above all, should be the life safety of every employee, visitor, contractor, and other occupant of the facility. It should follow with the protection of assets. It may include safeguarding, or at least notification, of related properties.
In creating an emergency management plan, the organization needs a chart showing a direct line of authority. On any given day, key players need to know who is in charge, who has the authority to initiate an evacuation, or who may call in off-duty staff. The line of authority may be determined by a schedule, the entity's table of organization, or a pre-determined list. Regardless of who is designated as "in charge," that person must be available immediately through a secure form of communication.
Each of these positions has a series of tasks that must be predetermined, coordinated, and made a part of the emergency management plan. The depth and scope of the task will be determined by the nature of the organization and its operational environment.
These documents should be made available to all managers and distributed to emergency response agencies. Decision makers should also have copies accessible even when they are off the property.
FM is responsible for all things related to the physical plant. The location and status of operating systems, especially utilities, must be indicated on easily accessed documents. Some government agencies designate these as structural fire plans or building emergency plans. It requires the production of basic floor layouts that show the locations of vital elements such as stairways, perimeter doors, utility shut-off equipment, fire suppression control valves, system control panels, evacuation routes, fire extinguishers, fire hydrants and/or hose connections, "safe rooms," emergency medical supplies, and other emergency supplies.
Human resource management is responsible for all elements related to staffing, counseling, emergency notification, maintenance of rosters, and personnel information. It may be necessary to call staff, locate relatives, or determine who on staff has additional skills that can be applied in an emergency.
Business management is key. Regardless of the severity of the emergency, continued operations must be considered. This requires an astute strategy that includes continuity planning, funding sources, vendor selection and contracts during emergency operations, and safeguarding of business, IT, and other records.
In terms of business continuity, advance arrangements may require separate assignment of an individual to several activities. These may include transportation of assets and personnel, asset protection in a temporary site, use of remote storage, establishment of communications, and securing of other services (e.g., Internet access).
When it comes to security and safety, issues regarding security staffing, electronic systems, emergency response coordination, and asset protection must be well thought out, planned, and rehearsed. It is important to include local response agencies in the plan's distribution list, as well as in hands-on training. The security manager, or other person responsible for security, is a vital link between emergency agencies, alarm services, and security staff at the facility, in transit, and at any additional sites used by the organization.
In planning for IT technology/record concerns, protection of the IT equipment is vital to continued operations of core functions. It is not only necessary to protect the equipment but also the records produced. These may include payroll (without it, there is no workforce), time and attendance, contracts, and company archives. IT must be protected in place or moved to a secure location.
Even in times of crisis, finance needs must be met. During an emergency, the normal means of obtaining funds may be limited or even eliminated. The financial manager must plan ahead for use of temporary funds, temporary credit, or some means of ensuring the organization can continue to operate without having its normal banking capabilities available.
With the team in place, initial meetings should be conducted to ensure members understand their role and are prepared to initiate his or her part of the planning process. This will probably include assessing available assets, budgeting for emergency operations, and coordinating elements that transcend from one department to another.
And there are additional roles that need to be filled by other staff. Each department should advise the emergency management team of its prioritized needs in safeguarding property or records. Special provisions need to be made to care for and transport disabled staff or visitors. All staff should have assigned roles to assist in an evacuation. Staff members should also know the procedures for initiating a lockdown or protecting in place, should intruders threaten persons in the facility.
Once the emergency plan is outlined, published, and discussed, there should be regular exercises to determine its effectiveness. These usually begin with tabletop exercises in which realistic scenarios are presented and dealt with by designated participants in a written exercise. Tabletops are followed by the real thing. Walkthrough exercises involving every aspect of the facility's staff should be conducted with the participation of response agencies.
Emergency management plans are fluid documents. Changing environments, staff levels, and situations may all warrant flexibility. Success not only depends on having a plan, but developing the emergency management team into a cohesive, responsive unit. And one final thought, what would happen if key members of the emergency management team were rendered helpless or unavailable?

DAX Falls as Deutsche Bank and BASF Troubles Continue
The DAX index is Germany's response to the US Dow Jones Industrial Average. The index is made up of the 30 biggest companies in Germany and is used as a measure of how good or bad the economy is performing.
Yesterday, the DAX declined by 25 points and the futures point to a 36 lower open today. This is after investors continue to react to major corporate news from Germany. On Sunday, Deutsche Bank announced its long revitalization plan that fell flat with the market. The new plan involves four main things. First, the bank announced that it will exit its equities trading business. This is a retreat from the bank's global ambition that might see it shed more than 18,000. Most of the job losses might be in London, New York, and Asia. Second, the bank intends to focus on its German retail operations and financing German companies. Third, the bank intends to create a bad bank that may have more than EUR 7.5 billion in assets. Finally, the bank intends to be a smaller operation that is focused mostly in German operations. Deutsche Bank is a shadow of its former self. It has a market cap of just $13 billion.
Deutsche is not the only German company in trouble. Yesterday, BASF announced that it was slashing its second quarter and full year earnings. BASF is the biggest chemicals company in the world with annual revenues of more than EUR 62 billion. In a statement, the company said that it expets its earnings before interest and taxes and excluding special items to decline by up to 30% from last year's levels. Previously, the bank had forecasted growth of between 1 and 10%. For Q2, the company said that it expects a 47% YoY decline in profits. This decline will be driven by lower earnings in the materials, chemicals, and agricultural solutions segment. As part of the ongoing restructuring, the company said that it will cut more than 6,000 jobs by the end of 2021.
On a positive note, Thyssenkrup announced that it was considering selling its unit that manufacturers elevators. The company has received bids from competitors for the unit that is valued at more than $16.8 billion. The company had planned to list the unit in the public markets. Among the firms interested in a stake are CVC Partners and KKR & Co. Elevator rival, Kone has also expressed interests in the unit.
Last week, the DAX index reached a high of €12,650. This changed yesterday when the markets opened after the weekend announcement by Deutsche Bank. The index declined to a low of €12,475. On the chart below, this price is below the 25-day and 14-day moving averages while the RSI has dropped from a high of 80 to the current 38. The index may continue moving lower as investors anticipate more bad news from German companies.

This fine moth is so very different from the last in appearance that the reason for placing the two in the same genus is not apparent till the earlier stages and life history have been studied. All its wings are very deep brown; the front pair has a darker band containing the orbicular and reniform spots, and the hind pair a lighter band across the middle.
It is a common moth, often to be found at rest by day in outhouses and sheds. It flies in July and August.
The caterpillar is dark purple or umber brown, with darker and lighter markings. It feeds in the autumn on fruit trees, and hybernates during the winter. In the spring it feeds again on low plants, and changes to a chrysalis in May under the ground.

Intel public policy: How Intel promotes innovation worldwide
Intel recognizes that innovation, growth, and the continued success of its business and the high tech industry depend upon individuals' trust in their use of technology and in the responsible, protected collection and processing of their data. Intel believes that privacy is a pre-requisite for that trust. It is recognized as an industry leader in development and implementation of privacy safeguards that protect the individual and preserve the robust flow and use of information.
Intel supports the passage of a comprehensive federal privacy law in the United States. Intel also supports appropriate restriction on the US government's access to and use of personal data while still allowing for effective public-private sharing of information about cybersecurity threats.
Self-regulatory regimes alone will not adequately protect individuals. While self-regulation plays an important role in safeguarding data, Intel believes that it is not sufficient to provide individuals with necessary protections. Rather, baseline legislation, together with self-regulatory regimes and technological tools, is necessary to protecting data and fostering trust. Privacy regulation, done correctly, can encourage innovation and economic growth by fostering consumer trust in technology. Intel prefers enactment of federal legislation to a patchwork of potentially conflicting state privacy laws.
Privacy legislation should be comprehensive and flexible. Intel supports passage of privacy legislation that reflects and addresses the challenges raised by current and emerging technologies and data practices. It must provide effective, reliable protections for individuals and be flexible enough to adapt to rapid changes in technology and data processing innovations. Intel believes that to achieve this goal, legislation must incorporate principles of privacy by design and accountability.
Appropriate security is increasingly essential to good privacy. As more digital devices connect to the Internet, the need to share data and applications among devices and to store them remotely—on servers in data centers—will grow. To provide appropriate protections, the security of the networks and devices is critical. At the same time, when devices connect to a network some device information (IP addresses) will need to be connected and processed for security purposes, and any privacy law must recognize the need for this information sharing.
Enforcement must be predictable, effective, and accessible. To provide adequate protections for individuals, privacy legislation must provide for robust, harmonized, and predictable enforcement that individuals can readily access and that yields timely and effective results.
Privacy legislation should promote innovation and the free flow of data. Privacy legislation should be designed to encourage innovation and impose no unnecessary burdens on companies. Privacy legislation and policy initiatives, such as free trade agreements, should not restrict the movement of data through protectionist measures.

An investor stands in front of an electronic board showing stock information at a brokerage in Shanghai.
One of China's top stock market regulators has been arrested.
The head of the division in charge of IPOs on the Shanghai and Shenzen stock markets, Li Zhiling, is accused of violating rules and letting her husband trade stocks, according to a statement by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC).
Li has been in charge of approving IPOs on the Chinese stock market, as well as requests by companies to sell additional shares, since 2014.
"She's suspected of breaking the law by taking advantage of her position," said a statement by the CSRC posted on Weibo. "Once we discover such violations, we will immediately take action to punish them. We do not take this lightly."
From the sounds of that statement, you could consider this arrest a part of President Xi Jinping's far-reaching anti-corruption campaign — the now-two-year long purge that has taken down the highest level officials since China's Communist Party was founded by Mao Zedong.
But that would only be some part.
Li's arrest comes on the heels of what some are calling 'China's Black Friday.' Last week, the Shanghai Composite Index plunged over 13%, officially putting the market into correction territory.
This after China's traders watched their market return around 140% over the last year.
It was a pile-in. Farmers in remote villages got trading accounts, the entire country levered up, and money that had once poured into China's real estate market focused on the quicker returns of equities instead.
Now the government is worried that a downturn could lead to social unrest. Regulators have put their foot down and forced traders to top using as much leverage— one of the main drivers of the rally.
That will likely dampen the market's performance. But to the government, that's better than the alternative: social unrest.
The last thing the Communist Party wants is protesting in the streets over lost retirement savings (for one thing). Journalists have been asked to temper their tone when writing stories about it.
"It's a do-or-die moment for all investors," Dong Jun, a Shanghai-based hedge fund manager, told the South China Morning Post. "If retail investors become skittish now, panic selling will continue next week."
In the meantime, it's a management shake up in Shanghai.

Where is 'The Good Doctor' Filmed – and Where Does the Show Take Place? – The Cheat Sheet Where is 'The Good Doctor' Filmed – and Where Does the Show Take Place?
The Good Doctor quickly rose to become one of ABC's most successful dramas. But as viewers become more engrossed in the life of Dr. Shaun Murphy, questions may be raised about the show's production. Is San Jose St. Bonaventure a real hospital? If not, where is the show filmed?
The Good Doctor | ABC
'The Good Doctor' follows Dr. Shaun Murphy's personal life and work life
The main character of the show is Dr. Shaun Murphy, a newly-hired doctor with autism and savant syndrome. Murphy was hired at the request of Dr. Aaron Glassman, who served as the hospital's president during the first season. In addition to being on the autism spectrum, Murphy also has savant skills. This means he has a level of brilliance that almost nobody else possesses. It enables him to draw conclusions about medical problems and procedures that other doctors on his team would never think of. The show follows Murphy as he navigates both work and a personal life while living with autism.
The hospital on the show is called San Jose St. Bonaventure, and it's located in California
On the show, the doctors work in a massive, highly-ranked medical center called San Jose St. Bonaventure. The show takes place in San Jose, California. The hospital is a fictional hospital that is supposedly one of the best in the country. It's a teaching hospital, which means it takes on patients with complex medical problems to not only try and find experimental treatments but also teach its resident doctors as much as possible. While the show takes place in California, it isn't actually filmed there.
The actual building is the city hall of Surrey, British Columbia — where the show is filmed
Although it's known as San Jose St. Bonaventure on the show, the actual building is located in Surrey, British Columbia — it is Surrey's city hall. Surrey is located in the Metro Vancouver area of Canada, and the show is primarily filmed in Vancouver, Canada. There is one major thing about the show that, if viewers pay attention, would make it obvious it's not actually filmed in California: The weather. San Jose, California sees nearly 300 days of sunshine each year, yet it's almost always cloudy outside St. Bonaventure. The climates in Vancouver and San Jose are very different. Plus, overhead shots of the city's "downtown" don't always add up to what San Jose actually looks like.
Most television shows do not film in the area where they take place
The Good Doctor is not the only television show to take place outside of where it was filmed. In fact, most television shows, especially shows that are set outside major cities, are not filmed where they take place. Suits, a popular USA Network show known as Duchess Meghan Markle's breakout series, is filmed in Toronto, Canada, yet it takes place in New York City. This is Us may take place in Pittsburgh, but it's actually filmed in Los Angeles. This is mostly because filming in certain cities can be extremely difficult and expensive, so production companies find other places to film instead and then set the show in their city of choice.

Q: Prepared Statements and SQL Injection I am in the process of creating a reply ticket system, and came across this. Since I'm usingmysqli_real_escape_string, it's adding backslashes to the reply text. Since I'm using prepared statements and bind_param, is it safe to remove the mysqli escape string? or will that open it up for SQL injection? Thanks!!

A: Simple answer, no. SQL injection involves inputting strings that are used as part of the SQL control itself rather than values for a part of the query. By parameterizing the query, you essentially cordon off the variable, which covers the cases protected by *_escape_string calls and is more secure.

Luis Fernández de Córdoba y Arce was a Spanish sailor and military man who was Governor of Chile between May 1625 and December 1629.

Biography
A Spanish noble gentleman of El Carpio, in the Province of Cordova and member of an influential family, Luis Fernandez de Cordoba y Arce made his military career in the navy becoming a general of the Navy of the Philippines.  After that he was given a post, by his uncle the Viceroy of Peru, Diego Fernández de Córdoba, Marquis of Guadalcázar.  He was made general of the plaza and presidio of El Collo, one of the major naval bases in the Spanish Pacific at the time.

When the Marquess of Guadalcázar, heard of the death of the Governor of Chile, Pedro Osores de Ulloa, he decided to replace the temporary governor, Francisco de Alava and Nureña.  Nureña was the brother-in-law of the deceased Osores, designated by Osores during his final hours. In order to replace him the viceroy designated as temporary Governor his own nephew Luis Fernández de Córdoba y Arce, hoping that he would have occasion to display his military skills in the War of Arauco.  He was later confirmed in the position by king Philip III of Spain.

From his arrival in Chile, the governor was immediately in the most urgent situation with the Mapuche toqui Butapichún making frequent incursions into Spanish territory north of the Bio-Bio River.  In order to contain him, the new governor divided the border into two districts; one under the command of its Maestro de Campo Alonso de Cordova y Figueroa, and the other run by his Sargento Mayor Juan Fernandez Rebolledo.  To each of these commanders he gave a well equipped force, so that as a mobile force it could be used in pursuing Butapichún.  Despite these measures and some lucky blows against the natives, the Malónes of Butapichún continued. He suffered some defeats with the worst being the Battle of Las Cangrejeras.

He also suggested to the king, without success, the transfer of the Real Audiencia of Chile from Santiago to Concepcion.

Rumford Firefighter Injured
Posted On: Aug 27, 2008
MEXICO, Maine -- Bill Johnston was lifeless when fellow firefighters dug him from the debris of a collapsed roof and carried him to a waiting ambulance.
The Rumford firefighter was helping to fight an early-morning fire in a three-story apartment building Saturday on Holman Avenue when the roof collapsed.
Johnston was unresponsive and had no pulse when firefighters found him and carried him down three flights of stairs, said Rumford fire Lt. Rob Dixon.
"Med-Care brought him back in their ambulance, with the assistance of former Rumford Hospital physician assistant David Saphier," Dixon said.
Because a medical helicopter was unavailable, Med-Care Ambulance rushed Johnston, estimated to be in his late 40s, to Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston.
According to a CMMC nursing supervisor, Johnston was in good condition Saturday evening.
Med-Care Director Dean Milligan said he believed Johnston, who suffered back injuries when he was crushed, would be hospitalized overnight for observation.
"Outside of Bill being temporarily dead, things went very well," Dixon said of the fire at 14 Holman Ave., which began sometime between midnight and 1 a.m.
Dixon said he and two other on-duty Rumford firefighters arrived on the scene and saw that the fire had gone through the roof.
"When a fire's in the ceiling, you don't dare put anyone in because, on arrival, when you see fire through the roof, you try to kill it from the outside," Dixon said.
He said he believed Johnston entered the building and the roof collapsed on him. "I don't know how many hundreds or thousands of pounds it was, but it just knocks the daylights out of you."
Johnston was completely covered in debris, but firefighters were able to find him because the collapse activated his life-safety device and it was making noises.
His firefighting partner, Chris Moretto, yelled for help.
"Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! Man down on the third floor!"
Rumford fire Deputy Chief Chris Bryant, Rumford firefighter Ed Carey and Mexico firefighter Allen Chartier stopped what they were doing, donned breathing gear and rushed to help.
"Those guys, Chris, Ed and Allen, they definitely deserve notice. They did a hell of a job," Dixon said.
Fire officials did not know how many occupants were displaced from the three apartments in the building or whether any were injured. State fire investigator Chris Stanford was on scene Saturday due to the workplace injury.
"I don't know why we don't have a dead firefighter after this, but I guess luck was on our side this morning," Milligan said. "It's not very often that a roof collapses and pins someone and they live. People in the River Valley area could very well have been going to a firefighter funeral this week."
