We noticed that getting leadership and organisation development work off the ground is getting increasingly sticky. So we gathered senior HR and development people from client organisations to explore what this is about and how to make progress in these treacley times. People came from as far and wide as (amongst others) BP, Bayer, Deloitte, the NHS, Network Rail, RBS and HSBC.
- (even if the treacle is here to stay) how we might move through it more easily.


It's rare that we get the opportunity to use underwater cameras to film catching trout in public waters. Normally, crowds don't allow it. Other times, the fish get spooked instantly and won't bite when we put a camera in the water. Or the water can be murky. Fortunately, a few days ago in Pennsylvania while fishing Laurel Creek we were able to capture brook trout grabbing eggs inches from the GoPro.
We were in Central Pennsylvania to target brook trout on this small creek upstream of Whipple Dam. The creek is planted several times a year by the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission and normally fishes well for a week or two after being stocked. The creek is stocked over several miles, which disperses trout from swarms of anglers vying to catch them. A few miles upstream of Whipple Laurel Run is a tiny stream and only has little holes and small pocket water. However, as you migrate closer to the lake the holes grow.
The PA Fish & Boat Commission deserves kudos for this stocking. While we did catch a random 10-inch fish most of them ranged from 12 to 16 inches. More impressive was their wild characteristics. These fish had full tails and vibrant colors. They didn't look like stockers. The size of the plant ensures that fish are around for the next few weeks. Some of the stops received six buckets of brook trout. Others in the smaller holes upstream only got two buckets, which was warranted.
Most of the trout were stocked in large pools. And, we caught and released at least four-dozen trout in these large pools. Meanwhile, we also caught a few dozen fish walking away from the road and plucking bait into pockets, under bridges and beneath undercut banks. There were trout scattered everywhere. Normally, the creek gets hit hard by anglers the first few days after a stock and then pressure decreases.
For our first few casts Fire Bait was the hot ticket. We caught and released a half dozen trout quickly on Feed Pellet Brown and Garlic Salmon Egg Fire Bait. Rather than rolling it into a ball we molded the Fire Bait into a worm-like shape and slowly jigged it on a size 12 Eagle Claw single egg hook. The movement stimulates strikes. And, they came often. You'll see a few of them from our underwater cameras when this episode of Pautzke Outdoors comes out.
The brooks became conditioned to the Fire Bait. When they did we switched to Fire Balls and the action escalated. It's important to use four-pound test and small split shots here. The water is gin clear and the fish can be spooky. We switched back and forth between Pink Shrimp, Gold Garlic, Orange Shrimp and Chartreuse Garlic Fire Balls and watched the brooks fight over who go to eat them first. The entire spectacle was caught on our GoPro's underwater. All were also fished under a small float to keep them from resting on the bottom.
Editor's Note: Pautzke Fire Bait and Fire Balls are available at Walmart and Bass Pro. For more information on trout stocking in PA please visit: http://www.fishandboat.com/Fish/Stocking/Pages/default.aspx.

The Howard College Theater Department of Big Spring will present "Sherlock Holmes: The Unforgiven," by Linda Swain, a Dinner Theatre that will take place in the Florence T. Hall Studio Theatre, November 8 through 10 at 7 p.m. The dinner will be at 6:20 p.m.
Students of theater at Howard College were interested in the style of Swain's plays, so they asked if they could perform one of them. Swain, a New York area writer, was reportedly delighted with the request and even took time to rework some of the characters and settings to better suit the West Texas area.
The interactive "theatre in the round" (the crowd will wrap around the stage) will bring guests and participants to ask themselves "who did it?"

Great price and a fab location made this villa a winner! Came here for a week with the family and loved every moment. Easy access to tons of restaurants in Legian and lots of shops. Neat and tidy villa with ample room for the kids. Well worth a visit!
Loved the Legian location as this was very handy for taking the kids out at night to restaurants. Villa was stunning and was perfect for our week in Bali. For the price and location this villa is amazing. Planning to come back again.
We regularly travel to Bali and love staying in villas. Villa Maria is that good that this is our third stay here. Seriously we just can't get enough of this place. It's got a fab location and is really clean and very modern and we love the fact that we can easily get about in Legian and be at the beach in less than 10 minutes.
Price wise it's also really worth consideri8ng everything that's thrown in. Privacy, swimming pool....what more could you ask for? Im giving it a 10 out of 10!
Our group of 7 stayed here for a fab week. Cleaned every day, the food was tasty & Kedek the head butler was the absolute BEST!! Awesome pool, great times and we are definitely booking this again.
I wanted to send my appreciation to you and your manager for the response I received from my email whilst to you whilst staying at Villa sophia.
I also wanted to send my appreciation and thanks to Kadek our butler for his caring and friendly manner in which he looked after us. Nothing was ever too much for him, he organised restaurant bookings for us cooked us some lovely breakfasts, organised tours even organised a birthday cake for me at the villa.
I cannot tell you how much this meant to me.
I will definitely be recommending your villa's to all my friends and family.
Please pass on my appreciation to your manager and kadek for the outstanding service we received.
Loved being near the beach. Clean villa with fantastic staff and ultra quiet. Tanks to everyone at Sophia for making us feel so happy.


In Flexor or Extensor Tendon Injuries, the tear (rupture) or cut (laceration) of the tendon ends are pulled apart, and they cannot heal without the ends touching. This necessitates surgical repair where the tendon ends are sewn back together. Most often the tendons are damaged by cuts, but athletic injuries occur usually in football or wrestling. If one player grabs another's jersey, the finger gets pulled, rupturing the flexor tendon; thus, the name "jersey finger." If a player gets hit by a baseball on the end of the finger, it can spontaneously rupture the extensor tendon on the tip of the finger; this is called "mallet finger." This can also happen from a person scrubbing a carpeted floor. The symptom of tendon injury is the finger no longer bends or straightens.
After surgical repair, it is critical that you follow your surgeon's orders postoperatively. You will be referred to physical or occupational therapy to follow a Tendon Repair Protocol. You should make sure the therapist you go to has worked with this type of repair and knows the protocol. It is imperative not to overstretch the repair because it could re-rupture.
Physical Therapy Treatment Plan: After careful evaluation by the physical or occupational therapist, the first step in treating this condition is to fabricate a splint for you to wear for 6-8 weeks. Treatments may include edema control, scar massage, and specific passive exercises per the protocol ordered by the hand surgeon.

More and more parents are taking their children's parties to venues that lie away from home. Restaurants, especially those that are children friendly, are becoming very popular as venues for birthday parties.
While it may be wonderful to have a birthday party at home, sometimes it just isn't practical. In a day and age where money is increasingly hard to come by, more people are opting for living cheap, comfortable and requires little maintenance. While this is perfect for small families living on a day to day basis, it just isn't suitable to host a party with a group of children all running in different directions.
There are a number of restaurants around today that are geared towards children. These are perfect venues for a party. While they offer reasonable packages on food, party packets, and birthday cake, they also already have the entertainment. You will find a number of these restaurants offer a standard price per child. Within that price range, there is provision for a stand ard meal, a packet filled with goodies, and a birthday cake with candles that will be shared among the little ones. Play areas are the main attraction for these restaurants, and the children will definitely have a whale of a time with their friends.
Parties at home can be stressful. First, there is all the running around to decorate, bake, buy sweets, set up, and then you still have to entertain the children, as well as the parents. With a restaurant venue you book in advance, and they do all the hard work for you. The best part is saved for the very end, of course, no dreaded cleaning up after an army of kids has torn through the area. Simply pack up your personal effects, and hit the road. Of course, you should always ensure that everyone cleans up after themselves, and throws their papers, and trash away as they go along.
Restaurant venue parties for children are becoming the norm. Besides the fuss, and hassle involved in throwing a party, it often works out far cheaper to go the restaurant route. Life is stressful as it is, and there is barely enough hours in the day to get your normal activities done. Why put yourself under added pressure by adding to your to-do list.

Boden- und Hochnebel vorherzusagen ist schwierig.
            Diese Karte berücksichtigt nur einen Faktor und berechnet eine Nebelobergrenze auch wenn das Wetter schön ist.
            Erkundigen Sie sich zusätzlich bei einem Wetterdienst (z. B. MeteoCentrale),
            ob mit einer Nebellage zu rechnen ist (v. a. stationäre Hochdrucklage zwischen Anfang Oktober und Mitte März).
            Die Prognose deckt 4 Tage ab in einer Auflösung von 3 Stunden und einer Genauigkeit von ± 100 Höhenmetern.

Includes initial one hour meeting to discuss training goals, targeted races and set performance goals, race & training history, desired (possible) training volume per week and month.
The training plans can be set up for an entire racing season, or for a specific target race. The plans will be specifically designed for athletes who have not been in the sport very long, or who are targeting their first long distance races, for example first Ironman, with the primary goal of finishing.


The most important part of a firefighter's respiratory system protection is the quality of the air contained in their SCBA cylinder. And like the old computer adage of "garbage in, garbage out" having cylinders full of quality air is paramount. And this ultimately comes down to the fill station.
The seven fundamental strategies must occur sequentially while the strategies of salvage and ventilation are implemented anywhere those strategies are needed to support the other seven.

Joint Venture OEMs' Telematics Products Report, 2020
Amid "CASE" (connected, autonomous, shared and electrified) prospering in automotive sector, Chinese and joint venture auto brands are vying for connectivity and intelligence. In China, domestic brands have gained first-mover advantages in the country's telematics market on the strength of local resources.
New York, Jan. 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Joint Venture OEMs' Telematics Products Report, 2020" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p06003508/?utm_source=GNW
In January 2019, joint venture brands were left behind by Chinese OEMs, with an 11.8 percentage points lower telematics penetration. Since 2019 their deploying telematics has been expedited: they endeavor to develop underlying technologies and seek partners, with roll-outs of more secure, more intelligent in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems; they also focus more on user experience and exert themselves to upgrade telematics capabilities by setting up joint ventures, or cooperating with BATH (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent and Huawei) to answer Chinese customers' needs for services from in-vehicle entertainment to mobility. In the first ten months of 2020, joint venture brands boasted a telematics installation of up to 49.8%, closing the gap with their Chinese peers (57.7%) to 7.9 percentage points.
From January to October 2020, joint venture brands saw their installation of telematics jump by 14.3 percentage points from 35.6% in the prior-year period. Among them, the installation of Toyota, Chevrolet and Skoda all surged by over 30% on a like-on-like basis, because Toyota introduced Toyota Connect system into China in 2019, Chevrolet launched widely available MyLink+ system in the second half of 2018, and Skoda brought into use Skoda Connect system, a local telematics system for SAIC Volkswagen, in 2020.
In comparison, Audi and KIA post a relatively low installation, but they have set about deploying with great efforts. As an example, in December 2020 FAW Volkswagen Audi and Baidu Internet of Vehicles jointly released Audi Q2L T-Box; in October, Hyundai Kia forged a close partnership with Baidu on installation of Xiaodu In-Car OS in all future models planned to be sold in China and imported cars.
In future, joint venture automakers will head in the following directions:
1. It is estimated that their installation of telematics will outstrip 50% in 2020 and leap to around 70% in 2025.
2. They will deliver better use experience to cater to Chinese clientele who has developed a unique habit of using internet, as they partner closely with Chinese companies like BATH (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent and Huawei) to introduce new features in their IVI systems, including short video, group driving, delivery to car, biometrics, WeChat vehicle version, applets, and Huawei APP.
3. Accelerate iteration and upgrade of telematics system. IVI systems of joint venture brands like Toyota and Honda have yet to offer OTA updates, while Tesla, NIO and Xiaopeng Motors already provide full vehicle FOTA capability. In the second half of 2020, the mass-adoption of OTA updates by joint venture OEMs such as BMW and SAIC GM was enabled.
4. Apply V2X. For example, Buick has made it clear that its next-generation IVI system is to support V2X; Ford will roll out its first production model packing V2X capabilities in China in 2021.
In October 2020, BMW China released its "Customer Centric Digitalization Strategy" where China will go first in research and development, products, and user experience on the vehicle end. BMW announced the latest iDrive 7.0 OTA update for about 750,000 cars worldwide from October 19, 2020 onwards, including roughly 200,000 units in China.
BMW unveils a range of IVI system features for the Chinese market this year, including Ximalaya FM (in April 2020), Ixigua Short Video and a parking lot indoor map (in July 2020), upcoming Tencent Mini Scenario (within 2020), and WeChat vehicle version (in future). On this basis, for Chinese customers, BMW has also designed My BMW APP, an exclusive APP launched in September 2020 and offering more than 60 capabilities under three categories --"Car Selection, Service, and Social Contact".
In future, BMW China will push on with development and launch of digital experience products for China through its Chinese R&D teams (with 1,100-plus talents including more than 400 software staffs) and its digital service outfit -- LingYue Digital Information Technology Co., Ltd. founded in 2019.
In July 2020, Dongfeng Nissan released its "Intelligent Connected Future" Program which highlights the following: 1. to launch 8 car models carrying Nissan Connect in 2020; 2. to equip 80% of its models with telematics systems in 2021; 3. to iterate Nissan Connect for four times during 2020-2024.
Nissan Connect, one of the five core technologies of Nissan Intelligent Mobility, encompasses six functional sectors (e.g., Remote Online, Online Control and Online Resources) offering 59 capabilities, of which 12 are included in the Online Resources sector, such as online payment (WeChat, Alipay and UnionPay Online Payment), account bound with third-party APPs, smart refueling (supporting online payments), and vehicle safety functions (violation query, safe arrival reminder, vehicle health monitoring and maintenance reservation). As of November 2020, Nissan Connect has been available to nine of Nissan's models (2021) including Kicks, Tiida, Sylphy Classic, Sylphy, Qashqai, X-Trail, Murano and Teana.
In April 2019, Ford China announced "Ford China 2.0" strategy which contains "330" Product Plan, Smart Technology Plan, China Partner Plan, China Innovation Plan and China Talent Plan, among which Smart Technology Plan involves: 1. launching the new SYNC+ in-vehicle infotainment system together with Baidu; 2. Equipping most of Ford and Lincoln brand new cars made in China with SYNC+ system from 2019; 3. spawning the first C-V2X-enabled model in China in 2021.
As for telematics, Ford has built SYNC+, its new-generation in-vehicle infotainment system built on Xiaodu In-Car OS for the Chinese market. The IVI system is a fusion of capabilities such as Baidu AI Voice Assistant, Baidu Navigation and Baidu Home To Vehicle, as well as infotainment features like iQiyi, QQ Music and Himalaya FM, and is connected with FordPass APP for "IVI system-smartphone-home" interconnection.
In November 2020, Volvo's new-generation IVI system was first seen in XC40 BEV. The system runs Google Android Automotive OS, and packs Huawei's HMS for Car intelligent in-vehicle cloud service (that offers such application services as Huawei APP Store, Huawei Quick APP, Huawei Assistant Service, My Car, Huawei Music, and Huawei Video), iFLYTEK's voice technology, Tmall Genie Car-Home Interconnection and Tencent Aiquting, among others.

Gender equality and the future of work
Ai Group Blog > Business Management > Gender equality and the future of work
Author: Nicola Street 7 March, 2018 0 Comments
Business Management, Leadership
There are clear business drivers as to why organisations are investing in diversity & inclusion initiatives: diverse businesses perform better, have higher performing cultures and more readily attract customers from an increasingly diverse community.
With the rise of digital technologies as part of the "Fourth Industrial Revolution" – or Industry 4.0, more businesses are evaluating and re-organising their core functions and changing the way work is performed. This brings many opportunities to attract and retain talent from diverse groups in the labour market – including women, who are still under-represented in managerial and leadership positions and in technical roles and trades.
To address this, many businesses operating in Australia have already embedded a number of strategies aimed at fostering greater female participation and promotion to managerial levels, including through:
mentoring programs, scholarships for further tertiary study and unconscious bias training;
reviewing recruitment processes and job descriptions for certain roles in male-dominated industries;
expanding flexible work to encompass job redesign, flexible teams and remote or 'mobile' working;
building on flexible leave policies throughout the organisation, including extending paid parental leave arrangements to fathers and partners; and
building organisational KPIs around workplace inclusion.
The changing nature of work is also requiring that workers have different skills. Industry increasingly needs workers who have the relevant specialist technical skills, foundational skills including digital literacy and, importantly, new enterprise capabilities in creativity, problem solving, advanced reasoning, complex judgement, social interaction and emotional intelligence. A key component of the future workforce will be the acquisition of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) skills. Similarly, the development of management capabilities will need to ensure businesses and their workforces are transforming successfully in the face of widespread change.
Given that employment in STEM occupations is projected to grow at almost twice the pace of other occupations,[1] increased female participation in occupations and industries that require STEM skills and qualifications is critical for industry to future-proof its STEM workforce and ensure greater capability and national competitiveness.
Ai Group is proud to be an industry partner for Break the ceiling touch the sky® – the success and leadership summit for women®.

South African celebrities, VIPs and media arrived in full red carpet glamour to raise a martini glass to the 24th James Bond action film: Spectre.
The private screening held at Nu Metro, V&A Waterfront, was hosted by the world's original luxury vodka, Belvedere Vodka, to celebrate the brands partnership with Spectre. Belvedere is the drink of choice for the distinguished British Secret Service agent who enjoys his martini: very dry and 'shaken not stirred'.
Bond's martini preference of 'shaken, not stirred' is globally recognized as an expression of his impeccable taste and unparalleled style. When it comes to his signature drink, Mr. Bond chooses Belvedere, the vodka of choice for tastemakers who Know the Difference, echoing the award-winning campaign promoting knowledgeable choices.
Posing for photos on the red carpet as cameras flashed were celebrated faces such as Hakeem Kae-Kazim, Katlego Maboe, Cindy Nel-Roberts, Danilo Acquisto, Zoe Brown, Katryn Kruger, Liezel van der Westhuizen, Dave Kabamba, Jen Su, Tanya Nefdt, Twala N'gambi as well as KLUK CGDT's Malcom and Christiaan.

UPDATE 2-Disney+ streaming exceeds expectations with 10 million sign-ups, shares surge
By Helen Coster
Nov 13 (Reuters) - Walt Disney Co on Wednesday said its new streaming service, Disney+, reached 10 million sign-ups since launching the previous day from "extraordinary consumer demand," sending shares up 3.5%.
The strong first day performance appears to establish Disney as a leading player in the streaming wars that pit it against industry leader Netflix Inc, Amazon.com Inc's Prime Video service, Apple Inc's Apple TV+ and AT&T Inc's forthcoming HBO Max service.
And although Disney's day one numbers were more than three-times the size of some forecasts, it was not immediately clear how many of these new customers were from free promotions.
In October Disney and telecom provider Verizon Communications Inc announced a promotion that made all new and existing Verizon unlimited wireless customers, as well as new Fios and 5G home internet customers, eligible for a free, one-year subscription to Disney+.
Ahead of the launch, Disney executives said they expected between 17 million to 19 million new subscribers as a result of the Verizon promotion. Verizon told Reuters in October they expected even more of its customers will have access to the deal.
In April Disney said it plans to reach 60 million to 90 million Disney+ subscribers globally by 2024. In a note on Wednesday, Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives wrote that at its current pace, Disney could hit that subscriber goal potentially two years earlier.
Netflix currently has over 60 million subscribers in the United States and 158 million globally.
Disney+, which launched in the United States, Canada and the Netherlands on Tuesday, was hit with technical glitches that the company said were caused by higher-than-expected demand.
The service costs $7 per month and features roughly 500 movies and 7,500 TV episodes from the company's deep family entertainment catalog as well as new programming. A bundle including ESPN+ and Hulu costs $13.
Disney said moving forward, it has no plans to release Disney+ subscriber data outside of the company's quarterly earnings calls.

École Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens
Institution founded in 1955, Jogues, Ontario.
The arrival of the sisters of the Congrégation de Notre-Dame in the town of Coppell had a large impact on Northern Ontario's educational milieu. Indeed, in the summer of 1951, Father Jules Victor Pelchat, pastor of the neighbouring town of Jogues, approached Sister Sainte-Antoinette-Marie and asked if some of the sisters in Coppell could commute to Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens School. He also met with the Congregation's Superior General to discuss this matter. However, the increasing number of students at Coppell's Bienheureuse-Marguerite-Bourgeoys School did not permit the sisters to travel from one school to another. It was not until August 1955 that the community found the necessary resources to be able to agree to the pastor's repeated requests. Sister Sainte-Pauline-Thérèse (Pauline Asselin), Director, and her companion, Sister Sainte-Rose-Marie-des-Anges (Marie-Desanges Samson) were sent to Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens School in Jogues, where, with two lay teachers, they taught one hundred thirty-seven pupils from Grade 1 to Grade 8. They, however, were obliged to travel by school transportation between the convent in Coppell and the school in Jogues even in the winter when roads were not always clear. In April 1957, the General Council of the Congregation agreed to establish a mission in Jogues. The former presbytery of the town was transformed into a convent where five sisters moved in. Among them was Sister Sainte-Germaine-du-Saint-Sacrement (Germaine Cantin) who was named Superior of Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens School. From the beginning, the students distinguished themselves at several regional contests. In 1960, the Ontario Catholic Separate School Board awarded the school first place for the teaching of French and English.
However, the region was undergoing structural changes. For example, in January 1968 the school was annexed to the Jogues School Board and in the fall of 1969, Grade 7 and Grade 8 students were transferred to the Hearst regional school. Also, on February 3, 1970, a notice issued by the School Council advised that, in order to increase the number of qualified teachers at the Hearst regional school, some of the sisters from Jogues would be transferred there. The Congregation immediately rejected the project. It was believed that, if this were to go through, there would not be enough new teachers at Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens School to ensure its proper functioning. In addition to providing education to the children, the sisters actively participated in the social and religious life of the parish. For instance, in 1983, they established a senior citizens' club. Nevertheless, on January 30, 1984, because of the decline in student population (less than 50 students at that time), it was announced that Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens School would close. Even though the parents reacted strongly to this news and demonstrated in front of the regional offices of the Ontario minister of education, the decision remained irrevocable. The parishioners of Jogues used this occasion to organize a reunion of all former teachers and students of Bienheureuse-Marguerite-Bourgeoys School in Coppell and Saints-Martyrs-Canadiens School in Jogues. The event took place on June 30, 1984 and welcomed some three hundred people. After the school was closed, three sisters continued to reside in the convent in Jogues; by 1988, only two remained. As the community did not have enough members to perform all the work that was assigned to them, the Congregation was obliged to withdraw the sisters. On August 4, 1988, the sisters left Jogues and the convent was sold on November 30 of that year to two parishioners.

In the early Middle Ages, sculpture made from stucco was a popular artistic medium. Used primarily for reliefs rather than free-standing statues, early medieval stucco sculpture was regularly painted in vibrant colors and gilded. Medieval texts describe figures modeled "ex gipso" as precious and variegated. Such admiration for the medium's sumptuous qualities belies stucco's humble nature as a friable and ephemeral material that was fast and inexpensive to produce. Moreover, as a modeled art form, stucco evoked archetypal creation narratives, such as Prometheus sculpting man out of clay or the Judeo-Christian god modeling the first man from mud. Medieval stucco sculpture was a prestigious art form, rich in its connotations and striking in its effects.
This project investigates the conceptual dimensions of stucco's use in the early Middle Ages, and over the course of four chapters, examines four monuments where figural sculpture in stucco appears as an essential component of a larger, multi-media decorative program. The case studies include: the fifth-century Orthodox Baptistery in Ravenna, the eighth-century Tempietto Longobardo in Cividale del Friuli, the ninth-century Westwerk in Corvey, and the eleventh-century Chapel of St. Ulrich in Müstair.
Dating from the fifth century to the eleventh, the monuments span a historical period that is, by and large, without monumental sculpture in stone. The chronological and geographical breadth of the material considered allows me to engage with a wide range of theoretical issues, such as material iconography, the polysemy of matter, the semantics of technologies of production, medium specificity, and mediality.

UK Government websites hit by cryptocurrency mining campaign
Jay Jay February 12, 2018
More than 5,000 websites, including sites belonging to the UK NHS, ICO, local councils and the Student Loans Company were affected by a cryptocurrency mining campaign that exploited a popular plug-in to infect websites with a malicious script.
Hackers behind the sophisticated operation to mine Monero, a popular cryptocurrency, succeeded in affecting such a large number of websites, some of them owned by government agencies, after they managed to inject a JavaScript fragment to a widely-used plug-in.
The said plug-in, known as BrowseAloud, offers "speech, reading, and translation support" to people suffering from dyslexia and visual impairments, allowing them to access website content. By adding the malicious script to the plug-in, the hackers basically succeeded in covertly mining cryptocurrency on all websites that featured the plug-in.
According to security researchers, the script used by those behind the campaign was CoinHive which is used for mining Monero cryptocurrency. Like in any other typical malicious mining operation, cyber-criminals used processing power from victims' devices to perform calculations needed to generate Monero without alerting users and keeping any cryptocurrency proceeds for themselves.
Researchers at security firm Lastline have confirmed that in order to limit the spread of the malicious script, Texthelp, the company that runs BrowseAloud, has removed the JavaScript from their servers and disabled the BrowseAloud tool altogether. As an added precaution, several government websites, including the website belonging to the Information Commissioner's Office, were taken down to minimise the threat to visitors.
In a press release, the National Cyber Security Centre also confirmed that steps were taken to minimise the impact of the cryptocurrency mining operation.
"NCSC technical experts are examining data involving incidents of malware being used to illegally mine cryptocurrency. The affected service has been taken offline, largely mitigating the issue. Government websites continue to operate securely.
"At this stage there is nothing to suggest that members of the public are at risk," said a spokesperson for the department.
The fact that hackers were able to compromise a plug-in to covertly mine Monero hasn't surprised Joseph Carson, chief security scientist at Thycotic, who believes that such activities are now taking place because the costs of mining cryptocurrencies like bitcoin has made it an expensive operation. "It was only a matter of time before cyber-criminals tapped unused resources from other legitimate websites and, ironically, using government resources to mine bitcoin is kind of a twist," he says.
According to Christopher Littlejohns, EMEA manager at Synopsys, the Monero mining operation was initially successful in affecting thousands of websites because injecting a mining script into a plug-in is "relatively easier" compared to exploiting access to personal information or account details.
"The NHS and other government agencies are particular targets due to two key factors, 1. The lack of adequate protections to prevent such attacks, and 2. The high numbers of people visiting the sites. Each infected page visit reaping a reward for the perpetrators. Whilst there will be an initiative to tackle such issues within the public sector, we should expect the criminals to target other high footfall sites or other delivery mechanisms to achieve their aims," he added.
Fabian Libeau, VP of RiskIQ, says that in order to minimise the impact from compromised plug-ins, security teams must inventory all the third party code running on web assets, and should be able to "detect instances of threat actors leveraging your brand on their illegitimate sites around the internet".


With all the news of a new PlayStation console being in development and Sony pegged to announce it between now and E3 this year, the hype is pretty high.
In such testing times, a lot of concepts and designs by freelance designers are doing the rounds but this particular PlayStation 4 concept stands out for us.
Despite being designed to perfection, it also looks very realistic and Sony can definitely take a leaf out of this designer's book.
We'll let you decide if it's any good or not. View the gallery below and let us know if you would like the PlayStation 4 to be like this.


In 2006 Chris Larson sent me a puzzle. It had T. argentina x ?didisticha Neville Ryan 1001 on the label. It is slow growing in Adelaide conditions and has just flowered. It seems that Neville grew seed from the BSI seed bank called T. argentina but the resultant seedlings did not look like the species so who was father. Father could well have given us the white flowers but whether it is T. didisticha is conjecture. There are at least 4 collections in Australia that have this plant and the time has come to give it a cultivar name.
As an aside, Eric Gouda saw similarities with the mysterious T. pfeufferi, which is an enigma in itself, but a wild phenomenon.
Now to a letter I got from Walter Till in 1997.
Thank you for your letter from 26 February and the pictures of the Knize plant.
The figured plant is doubtlessly interesting but I do not believe that it is T. pfeufferi which in my eyes is a natural hybrid between T. lorentziana and T. vernicosa. The leaf morphology of the plant figured in Trop. Subtrop. Pflanzenwelt 65: 62, Abb. 39 links ("1988", Mai 1989) is strongly resembling that of T. vernicosa while the inflorescence is that of T. lorentziana which can be simple. Petals are usually white in both species. However, occasionally violet flowering T. lorentziana has been found.
The plant in your pictures belongs to the alliance of T. lorentziana and is very close to T. zecheri. Except of the secund leaves and the pale violet petals I cannot see essential differences to the latter.
I know your plant from a collection from south Bolivia, from the area between Camargo and Culpina, 3200 m s.m. This is at higher altitude than are the localities of T. zecheri and of its var. cafayatensis in Argentina but is not dramatic as the Bolivian locality is somewhat nearer to the equator and vegetation is going correspondingly higher upwards the nearer one comes to the hot tropics.
Anyway, a careful examination of the characters of your plant and comparison with T. zecheri should be made. Perhaps your plant merits the status of an own variety. According to my opinion, however, your plant is not T. pfeufferi.
The Knize plant went on to become T. 'Pfantom' and is in Australian collections as is the infamous T. pfeufferi having been imported from Heidelberg.
Could the father of our plant be T. vernicosa and not T. didisticha? Life was not meant to be easy!
Years ago I got a plant with T. argentina on the label and clearly a seedling, from Maurice Kellett in Victoria which offsets profusely but never flowers. I have given away many offsets with the plea, "Tell me if it flowers!" I called it 'Evita' because of its links to Argentina and the song 'Don't cry for me!' because of the disappointment. It has a flower spike similar our NEW find which had me taking yet another check for a flower! Because of these links we should call it 'Evita Plus' because at least it does flower.
Plant 15 cm wide, 12 cm high, leaf sheath merges with the blade, 1 cm wide, green with scales, peduncle 2cm long, inflorescence up to 3 spikes, terminal spike to 7 cm long and 1 cm wide, petals white, stamens included.


Attached is our compilation of financial information for New England credit unions. Please CLICK HERE to view the December 31, 2018 data. As was done last quarter, each New England state has its own tab and there is a final tab that includes all of the credit unions in New England.
The data includes a number of key credit quality, performance and capital adequacy ratios. We then break-out certain ratios that we consider important in determining financial performance and long-term viability of credit unions.
From there, we rank the credit unions across each of these key ratios and determine an overall ranking based on the average of all of these ratios.
New England credit unions continue to see some margin expansion in 2018, margins are up 15 basis points over the last 12 months. This has had a positive impact on expense ratios and a significant increase in return on assets (ROA). ROA increased from 28 basis points in 2017 to 42 basis points in 2018.
Credit quality remains excellent. Delinquent loans to total loans are down to 115 basis points compared to 124 basis points in 2017 and net charge-offs for 2018 are only 34 basis points.
In addition, the allowance for loan losses coverage ratio has expanded to 4.51x from 3.76x. The higher the coverage ratio, the less the financial impact of CECL will be.
New England credit unions on average continue to carry excess capital (equity to asset ratio of 13.10%) and liquidity (loan to share ratio of 70.94%) providing opportunity to grow loans and total assets.
If you would like to discuss the information in further detail, we would be happy to assist. Please contact your Whittlesey advisor for more information.


Vasco restarted from the stadiums, with a great desire to surprise and surprise himself. To entertain and have fun with his fans. In the summer of 2018 the Live tour started: 6 Italian stadiums (Lignano Sabbiadoro, Turin, Padua, Rome, Bari), 10 dates. And as always Vasco's back at his best: it's sold out in all the stops.
Vivaticket managed the ticketing service, committing itself as always to guarantee maximum transparency and traceability, to continue the fight against secondary ticketing. The presale was held in 3 separate sales lots. The purchase method provided for an open online queue before the presale in order not to overload the website and allow everyone to complete the purchase operations without blocking and in total security. The tickets were nominative and were delivered to the users by express courier at the address indicated at the time of order.
«I won't change the "Modena Park Model", the formula that proved to be winning and satisfying unanimously. We're going to aplly this formula again for the Vasco Non Stop Live 2018, in the stadium version: all ticket management, exclusively, is entrusted to Vivaticket, which has made the ticket "transparent and traceable", in the face of the battle against secondary ticketing.

Q: TransactionScope performance issues I have performance issues when using TransactionScope class in my server side code (WCF).
My code gets request from client, creates TransactionScope and performs short operations (usually up to 100 ms).
See bellow the attached code that simulates my server side code. The problem that when there are 100 and more concurrent users, it takes more then 1 second !!! to create new TransactionScope (see GetTransaction() method).
And when it goes up to 200 concurrent users, TransactionAborted is thrown .
Do you have any ideas?
class Program
     {
         private static ConcurrentQueue<double> m_Queue = new ConcurrentQueue<double>();

     static void Main(string[] args)
     {
         Console.WriteLine("Press any key to start ...");
         Console.ReadKey();

         for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
         {
             Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(Method));
             t.IsBackground = true;
             t.Start();
         }

         Thread.Sleep(2000);
         Console.WriteLine("Max {0}, Min {1}, Avg {2}, Total {3}", m_Queue.Max(), m_Queue.Min(), m_Queue.Average(), m_Queue.Count);
         Console.ReadKey();
     }

     private static void Method()
     {
         using (TransactionScope scope = GetTransaction())
         {
             Thread.Sleep(100);
             scope.Complete();
         }
     }

     public static TransactionScope GetTransaction()
     {
         var start = DateTime.Now;

         TransactionOptions options = new TransactionOptions();
         options.IsolationLevel = IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted;
         var t = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.Required, options);

         // Log creation time
         m_Queue.Enqueue((DateTime.Now.Subtract(start)).TotalMilliseconds);

         return t;
     }

 }

A: Initial answer:
If I test it with a simple List instead of a ConcurrentQueue (I don't have .net 4.5 installed), your code works fine on my end.
Since you start 200 threads at the same time, your line:
Console.WriteLine("Max {0}, Min {1}, Avg {2}, Total {3}", m_Queue.Max(), m_Queue.Min(), m_Queue.Average(), m_Queue.Count);

basically starts to iterate over the queue, which blocks the queue, and this causes the still-starting-threads to freeze when trying to add the item to the queue, and in turn causes a time-out in the transaction.
Can you try it without the above mentioned console-writeline?
Also, try it with a normal list.
A solution would be to wait for the threads to finish before you try to perform the max/min/avg/total functions.
One thing to notice is that the total I get in my test, is not the full 100 or 200. It is just a little below, which means there are still threads starting up.
Update:
If it helps. Any problems I have are solved if I move the enqueue call up in the method. Would that work in your situation?
public static TransactionScope GetTransaction() {
    var start = DateTime.Now;

    // Log creation time
    m_Queue.Enqueue((DateTime.Now.Subtract(start)).TotalMilliseconds);

    TransactionOptions options = new TransactionOptions();
    options.IsolationLevel = IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted;
    var t = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.Required, options);

    return t;
}

A: Remove your "enqueue" line, see if the problem persists.
Another thing, I'm curious about the "short operations" being executed within the transaction scope. they might be escalating the transaction coordinator from LTM to MSDTC, which might explain the slowness with more concurrent hits.

Landsendi (Iceland)
— Issue 2009/27 posted by hidden europe on 7 Sep 2009 —
It snowed last Tuesday night. Yes, we know you will think we are joking, but it really snowed. We were in eastern Iceland, and snow at the very start of September is a reminder of just how early winter comes to some parts of northern Europe. But a light dusting of new snow did not deter us from setting out for Landsendi, a remote headland that really does look on the map as though it might be at the very end of the world.
It snowed last Tuesday night. Yes, we know you will think we are joking, but it really snowed. We were in eastern Iceland, and snow at the very start of September is a reminder of just how early winter comes to some parts of northern Europe. But a light dusting of new snow did not deter us from setting out for Landsendi, a remote headland that really does look on the map as though it might be at the very end of the world. Wild headlands that look out over ocean waves are the stuff of myths and sagas: think of Finisterre in Galicia (northwest Spain) or Land's End in Cornwall (southwest England). Iceland actually has a number of headlands that boast the name Landsendi, but the one we targeted was engagingly remote. We lingered on the long road that skirts the wetlands where the Lagarfljót eventually reaches the sea, an area awash with seabirds and rainbows as the weather changed by the minute.
Eventually the tarmac gave out, and a gravel road continued on over the shoulder of windy Ósafjöll, climbing steeply to a wild col before dropping down the headland below. There are abandoned farmsteads, remote and isolated places where long ago families tried to make some sort of living from the land. This area of Iceland, the most beguilingly beautiful but harshest of lands, has suffered depopulation for generations as folk have left to make their lives in less testing environments.
One can but imagine what life might once have been like here before any roads brought a hint of modernity into the wilderness. Farming families doubtless struggled to survive biting winter cold, gathered around the eternally burning open fire in the farmhouse kitchen. Smoked meat and dried fish probably hung in the rafters - at least for those who had made a little money during the preceding summer months.
Most settlers have left but still there is something of the Icelandic soul in this rural wilderness. Those who know the ways of elves insist that the valleys, mountains and headlands of the northeast of the country are home to plentiful hidden folk. Just south of Landsendi is the elf settlement of Álfaborg, famously depicted in the paintings of Jóhannes Sveinsson Kjarval who as a child lived in the area.
We had no definitive sightings of elves on the road to Landsendi, but we did encounter a spirit or two, for there are ghosts from Icelandic history everywhere in this wilderness. We crossed the vast scree slopes where the monster Naddi used to wait at dusk to waylay innocent travellers and cast them to their deaths. And near Landsendi itself, there is a crucifix that has graced this headland for over seven centuries. The cross bears an inscription imploring travellers to pause and meditate for a while. So pause we did.
The land of the sagas has a curious knack of blending old and new. Many places have their hidden mythologies. It is just that in Iceland, the echoes of history are woven more thoroughly into the fabric of everyday life.

Judges Colleen Toy White and Michele Castillo will be honored by the Ventura County Women's Political Council at the group's annual garden party.
Judges Colleen Toy White and Michele Castillo will be honored by the Ventura County Women's Political Council at the group's annual garden party from 1-4 p.m. Aug. 19 in the President's Courtyard at CSU Channel Islands in Camarillo.
A teen wife and mother from a small rural town who had initially aspired to be a high school coach, Toy White moved halfway across the country, graduated from Ventura School of Law and became a superior court judge instead. Her path to judgeship included an 18-year stint as an assistant district attorney and as the chief assistant district attorney for Ventura County. She recently retired from the court after 23 years and was presiding judge in 2007 and 2008.
Castillo was appointed to the Ventura County Superior Court by Gov. Jerry Brown in June 2016, becoming the first Latina superior court judge in Ventura County. Castillo has stated that she was inspired to study law by her second grade class study of Martin Luther King Jr. A native Californian, she graduated from UCLA and from the Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego. She was a Ventura County court commissioner from August 2014 until she was elevated to superior court.
Tickets for the event are $35 for members; $45 for nonmembers. Sponsor and tribute opportunities are available. RSVP at http://vcwpc.org. For more information, email vcwpcouncil@gmail.com.
