Pandemic Mitigation Project
Pandemic Mitigation ProjectPandemic Mitigation ProjectPandemic Mitigation Project
Origin of Project
Pandemic Mitigation Project L'initiative pour atténuer les pandémies
Pandemic Mitigation Project L'initiative pour atténuer les pandémiesPandemic Mitigation Project L'initiative pour atténuer les pandémiesPandemic Mitigation Project L'initiative pour atténuer les pandémies
The Pandemic Mitigation Project (the "Project") advocates for the adoption of an international, legally binding Pandemic Non-Proliferation Agreement that would require countries to provide immediate notice of potential epidemic/pandemic events and grant immediate access to pre-vetted specialists to assist in identification, isolation and mitigation of the threat.
As an interim measure and proof of concept, a national commitment to a Pandemic Non-Proliferation Agreement could be achieved through Executive Order or other executive action in a particular country. Alternatively, blocs of trading partners/countries could adopt unilateral legislation to implement an informal multilateral agreement that would encourage compliance by trading partners. Either of these options would allow governments to take immediate steps to mitigate the next pandemic, free of the complexities and the time required for a much-needed comprehensive pandemic treaty. That larger effort will need considerable time and resources to accommodate complex national and international public health issues.
A Pandemic Non-Proliferation Agreement would have enforcement provisions -- expressed in the international legal instruments, national Executive Action, or unilateral legislation. At present, there is no comparable international health agreement, although unenforceable notification requirements are found in the International Health Regulations (2005) https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789241580496
The scope of this effort is intentionally limited to three elements:
(1) notification;
(2) grant of access; and
(3) enforcement provisions to encourage compliance.
With effective notification and access, other elements of the global public health infrastructure, such as those provided by the World Health Organization, (WHO) and national health authorities, could be more successful with their remediation and mitigation efforts.
Historically, governments – alone -- negotiated international instruments to address uncontrollable hazards, such as those presented by nuclear, biological and chemical weapons. Those threats are the product of government initiatives, making their mitigation a government responsibility.
Naturally occurring pandemic threats are different. They are not the result of government initiative. Accordingly, the Project envisions that the private sector (e.g., airlines, aircraft manufacturers, travel and hospitality companies, health and casualty insurers) should have a role in advocating for an Agreement that would address the three elements above.
WHO has a singular role in international public health. The proposed concept-draft of a what might be contained in such a convention includes provisions that would rely on WHO for certain logistic, management and public health functions, while preserving neutrality of that organization with respect to the Convention itself. The Project anticipates that WHO would not have a role in consideration of, advocacy for, or enforcement of a convention as proposed. Those would be matters for a convention's Signatory States.
On this site in the Documents page are:
(1) Pandemic Non-Proliferation Agreement Concept-Draft, to assist with discussion of the proposal (English and French);
(2) Argument for implementation of the proposed agreement (English) and Manifeste en vue d'une mise en exécution (French);
(3) by-laws or the "statuts" of the French non-governmental organization (French) and an English summary of same; and
(4) 'proof of concept' draft U.S. and Canadian legislation that would allow imposition of "pandemic risk-offset tariffs" on trading partners to encourage adoption of a minimum level of transparency through notification and grant of access.

The Project, "Pandemic Mitigation Project – L'initiative pour atténuer les pandémies", is a non-governmental organization formed in France. It is a non-profit organization (French "association") that does not solicit monetary contributions. The Project's European Union Transparency Register public identification number is 278847041584-96.

Narodil se v Berkshire. Jeho sestra Scarlett Bowman je hvězda seriálu Hollyoaks. Studoval na Berkshire's Wellington College. Věnoval se profesionálně rugby. V 18. letech hrál rugby za tým Saracens F.C. V prvním roce si však zranil rameno a byl požádán, aby tým opustil. Jeho kamarád, který pracoval v talentové agentuře ho přesvědčil, aby se vydal na dráhu herce a tak začal studovat drama v Lee Straseberg institutu v New Yorku. Jeho otec se hlásí k židovství. Má anglické, irské a italské kořeny.

Kariéra
Svůj herecký debut měl v roce 2007 s rolí Dimitriho v seriálu Genie in the House. Dva roky hrál v britském seriálu Holby City a objevil se ve filmech jako 13Hrs, Prowl, Exteriors a Love's Kitchen.

V roce 2011 se připojil k obsazení seriálu Make It Or Break It, který vysílala stanice ABC Family. Ve stejném roce získal roli v seriálu Pomsta. V roce 2012 se objevil po boku Miley Cyrus ve filmu Kočka. V roce 2017 hrál v seriálu Time After Time. Seriál byl však po první řadě zrušen.

Osobní život
V roce 2009 byla jeho přítelkyní zpěvačka Amy Winehouse. Během let 2010-11 ji nahradila herečka Cassandra Scerbo a od roku 2011 herečka Emily VanCamp, se kterou se poznal na natáčení seriálu Pomsta Dne 15. prosince 2018 se dvojice vzala na Bahamách.

Q: Integral Operator with Discontinuous Kernel Define $T : C[0,\infty)\to C[0,\infty)$ by $Tf(x) = \int_0^x f(y) dy$. Show that T is an integral operator, although with a discontinuous kernel k.
I'm not really sure where to start on this, any help would be appreciated.

A: $$
(Tf)(x) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty k(x, y) f(y) dy,
$$
where
$$
k(x, y) = 1_{(0, x)}(y)
$$
and
$$
1_{(0, x)} := \begin{cases}
1 & x \in (0,1) \\
0 & \text{else}
\end{cases}
$$
is the indicator function.
This is because
$$
\int_{-\infty}^\infty k(x, y) f(y) dy = \int_{\mathbb R} 1_{(0, x)}(y) f(y) dy = \int_{(0, x)} 1_{(0, x)}(y) f(y) dy + \int_{\mathbb R \setminus (0, x)} 1_{(0, x)}(y) f(y) dy = \int_{(0, x)} 1_{(0, x)}(y) f(y) dy = \int_{(0, x)} f(y) dy = \int_0^x f(y) dy.
$$

You should never hire the first lawyer that you see in a phone book when you are in desperate need of legal representation. You need to be very patient and consider many different factors before you settle on a particular lawyer. This is because your choice of legal counsel is one of the biggest decisions you will ever make. This is especially true if the case is very important and there is a lot at stake. Here are a few of the most crucial questions that you need to pose to any lawyer you are seriously thinking about retaining as your legal counsel.
How many other cases like mine have you dealt with before in your career?
A personal injury attorney is a person who represents people who have been physically or psychologically-injured. They focus on an area that is known as tort law. This is a practice that focuses on tort law. Tort is a wrongful act. Slip and fall cases, car accidents, medical malpractice and product liability are examples of common personal injury cases.
There are several steps that one will need to take in order to become a personal injury attorney. A person will need to earn a four-year-degree. One does not have to earn a degree in a specific field. However, there are prerequisites that one will need to meet before you go to law school. People will also have to take the law school admission test, or LSAT.
Receiving a Record Suspension or Pardon removes you from the negative label associated with incurring a criminal record and takes away any lawful blockages that would otherwise stop you from having a normal life.
The relevant laws which administer the acceptable time involved with delays and the processes involved with receiving a Pardon can be quite puzzling, and hold ups in the system will often leave Canadians scratching their heads wondering how much more time will pass before they are granted a normal life with everyday accessibility which the average citizen has access to.
The amount of time associated with the waiting period following a conviction before being able to apply.
The case of not actually being eligible regarding the Criminal Records Act policy for suspending records.
When it comes to legal business, many of the same rules apply as with any other business, Therefore, some things you don't necessarily associate with legal professions will still come into play, so it can be helpful to reassess the needs of your legal business to look for ways to improve through the lense of back to basics business. Here are a few tips to make for a more successful legal practice.

It is easy to show faith when a crowd is in front of you, but how is your faith when nobody is looking?
It is easy to practice faith when everything is going well, but how is your faith when everything has been taken away from you?
It is easy to have faith when you see a glimpse of light in the horizon, but how is your faith, when everywhere you turn, all you see is darkness?
Faith is never defined by raised hands and loud singing, neither by extravagant service nor eloquent prayers.
Faith is in abandoning the comfortable and the familiar for a greater calling. It is in the readiness to face adversity, knowing that your Father will never abandon you. It is in relinquishing control of your life and believing in the God that holds your future.
Faith is never external, never measurable, never seen by the naked eye. Faith is between you and your God.
So, how is your faith?

Pathios Therapeutics and Sygnature Discovery sign a strategic and innovative partnership to develop first in class therapies in autoimmune disease and immuno-oncology
OXFORD and Nottingham UK 06 FEBRUARY 2019: Pathios Therapeutics ("Pathios"), an innovative biotech company focused on the development of first in class therapies for autoimmune diseases and immuno-oncology and Sygnature Discovery ("Sygnature"), jointly announce a strategic partnership to accelerate Pathios' drug discovery and development programmes.
As part of the agreement, Pathios and Sygnature will collaborate on an integrated drug discovery programme against a novel G Protein-Coupled Receptor (GPCR) target. Specifically, Sygnature are providing their industry leading expertise in GPCR bioscience and medicinal chemistry to expand Pathios' current hit-to-lead programme. Sygnature are also deploying their computational chemistry, library design and synthesis and medium throughput screening capability to broaden Pathios' hit finding. As part of this agreement, Sygnature will receive equity in addition to fees.
Pathios Therapeutics brings together cutting-edge European science and a leading drug discovery and development team to modulate the activity of GPR65, a pH sensing GPCR. This drug target is characteristic of certain T helper 17 (Th17) cell populations which have been shown to contribute significantly to the pathology of autoimmune conditions, such as ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis. In addition, recently published studies have demonstrated GPR65 drives tumour associated macrophages (TAM) to adopt a phenotype that supports cancer immune evasion.
Tom McCarthy, Executive Chairman and Co-founder of Pathios Therapeutics Limited, commented: "We founded Pathios to build on emerging science that demonstrated GPR65 sits at the nexus of autoimmune disease and immuno-oncology as this receptor links pathology caused by a low pH environment. The ultimate aim is to block the pathological process that GPR65 initiates without interfering with the physiological role of this receptor. In addition to developing potent and selective drugs to modulate GPR65, we are continuing to broaden the understanding of the fundamental biological processes that link to GPR65's effects in Th17 cells, TAMs and other cell types. Our team has worked closely with Sygnature in the past and know they have the deep experience, expertise and state-of-the-art drug discovery and development infrastructure to drive our programme forward. I'm delighted on this rare occasion Sygnature also chose to invest in Pathios and expand our GPR65 drug discovery efforts while we explore Series A funding opportunities".
Simon Hirst, CEO of Sygnature, added: "We are extremely pleased to take this exceptional opportunity to partner with, and invest in Pathios on their drug discovery projects. Based on our diligence activities, we are excited about the potential for GPR65 modulation to be central to new treatments for autoimmune disease and a critical mechanism of action in next generation immunooncology drugs targeting the tumour micro-environment. We are excited to have the opportunity to work with Tom and the rest of Pathios' tremendously talented team again and contribute to the potential positive impact their therapeutics will have on patients' lives".

Human beings are less rational than we assume. Nowadays, abundant laboratory and field experiments show that we systematically fail to behave, decide or act rationally, i.e., to act as maximizers of our own utility; the so-called "homo oeconomicus" does not actually exist. These assumptions have led to the emergence of Behavioral Economics. When the findings of Behavioral Economics are used in the field of Law, we then enter the field of Behavioral Law & Economics (BLE). This is an interdisciplinary meeting point for Law, Economics and Psychology (see recently in Greek legal literature: Karampatzos, Private Autonomy and Consumer Protection – A Contribution to Behavioral Economic Analysis of Law, 2016). BLE flourished in the US especially in the aftermath of the subprime lending crisis. Various public policy instruments have been explored since then with the intent to enhance consumer protection in bank loan agreements. In my presentation I focus on some major BLE findings in relation to the problem of private bank lending, and more specifically of the "Non-Performing-Loans" (NPLs). Inter alia, I discuss the following issues related to a BLE approach: (a) Why resort to excessive borrowing, especially in case you are not in bad need of financing? (→ mainly because of overconfidence bias, present-bias and hyperbolic discounting). (b) Do Borrowers Really Need Protection? What about the So-called "Learning-Effect"? (c) Free-Riders, Strategic Default and Moral Hazard in combination with the twin phenomena of "herding/herd behavior" and "social mimetism". (d) Possible Proactive Measures for Borrowers' Protection Pursuant to BLE findings (→ light-touch state interventions, such as properly designed default rules, informational duties and short cooling-off periods after the conclusion of a bank loan agreement). My presentation ends with the following two main conclusions: (a) The BLE approach may offer some valuable insights into the borrower's behavior at the time they enter into excessive borrowing or they decide to go down the path of "strategic default". (b) The Greek banks experience great difficulties offloading their NPLs; probably, there is here a need for more active involvement of institutional actors, such as the ECB or the Bank of Greece as well as of debiasing tools offered by the research done in the field of BLE.
Human beings are less rational than we assume, or than the economists predict. Their behavior is affected by all sorts of cognitive biases or, in more general terms, systematic errors. The so-called "homo oeconomicus" does not actually exist.
This is the reason why the Rational Choice Theory has been set aside by the Theory of Bounded Rationality (Simon, et al.), which seeks to provide a more realistic approach on human behavior, to bring forward the difference between Econs (who might exist only in the economist's mind) and Humans (who are much closer to real life and the dangers it poses to all of us).
The aforesaid assumptions led to the emergence of Behavioral Economics. Nowadays, abundant laboratory and field experiments show that we systematically fail to behave, decide or act rationally, that is, to act as maximizers of our own utility.
However, an eventual misunderstanding must be cleared up here right from the outset: The following paragraphs also refer to purely economic findings or theories; this is no coincidence at all, since the starting point still remains the model of 'rational man'. What Behavioral Economics have successfully shown to us is that there are significant systematic failures of said model, which should be taken into consideration if we want to more accurately predict human behavior.
When the findings of Behavioral Economics are used in the field of Law, mostly on a prescriptive-normative level (: why a certain legislative provision should be enacted), we then enter the field of Behavioral Law & Economics (BLE). This is an interdisciplinary meeting point for Law, Economics and Psychology (see very recently in Greek legal literature: Karampatzos, Private Autonomy and Consumer Protection – A Contribution to Behavioral Economic Analysis of Law, 2016).
BLE flourished in the US especially in the aftermath of the subprime lending crisis. Various public policy instruments have been explored since then with the intent to enhance consumer protection in bank loan agreements. The principle of 'responsible lending' was reinforced: as a result, more informational duties were imposed to the banks.
The application of BLE findings goes well beyond consumer protection and embraces a series of significant public policy issues, such as environment protection, organ donation, taxation, regulation of financial markets, etc. The aim is here to help draft more efficient legal rules that promote individual and social welfare.
In my presentation I focus on some major BLE findings in relation to the problem of private bank lending. In fact, one of the main challenges that the Greek economy nowadays faces is the proper legal treatment of the so-called "Non-Performing-Loans" (NPLs).
The numbers are just staggering: NPLs have reached a volume of around 108 billion euros; the overall NPL level corresponds to 50% of the banks' total loan portfolio; Greece's GDP in 2015 reached 176 billion euros, thus NPLs accounted for 56.8% of Greece's annual GDP the past year.
Overconfidence bias: we overestimate our own abilities/capabilities or prospects about the future and at the same time we underestimate future risks or the dangers we face from a certain activity.
Additionally, present-bias, hyperbolic discounting and multiple-selves problem: We stick to the pleasures of the present and suppress the future negative repercussions of present decisions, attributing to their occurrence a much lower probability than the actual; we make decisions that our future self would not make, would actually regret; in a nutshell, we discount heavily the future. So, for instance, we enjoy the provisional increase in the bank account balance due to a loan and we suppress the mid- and long-term effects of having to repay the money borrowed, at a high interest rate at that.
But what do we actually mean by "hyperbolic discounting": divergence between short-term preferences and long-term preferences à For instance: "Would you prefer a dollar today or two dollars tomorrow?" or "Would you prefer a dollar in one year or two dollars in one year and one day?" It has been claimed that a significant fraction of subjects will take the lesser amount today, but will gladly wait one extra day in a year in order to receive the higher amount instead.
b. Do Borrowers Really Need Protection? What about the So-called "Learning-Effect"? Why Not Let Them Fail and Learn From Such Transactional Failures?
Some proponents of the strict enforcement of the principle "pacta sunt servanda" suggest that if the legislator or the judge intervenes in such cases, then the so-called "learning-effect" is lost. "Let persons exercise their freedom to err (errarum humanum est), make their own mistakes; they will learn from them and thus they are not going to repeat them in the future", as the argument goes.
First, there is an obvious systemic dimension of the problem of NPLs which calls for the need of some kind of state or judicial intervention, especially due to the deep, prolonged and unprecedented recession that Greece undergoes in the last 7 years.
Second, at least in the field of household lending it may be seriously doubted whether such a learning-effect may indeed take place; for: (a) household loan agreements are normally concluded once in a lifetime of an individual and thus are not reiterated in order for the learning-effect to develop its force; and on the top of that (b) it is difficult to see what are we really supposed to learn from an excessive borrowing that has devastating financial consequences upon us; the answer is rather self-evident.
Approximately 20% of the total of NPLs is due to strategic default (according to relevant assessments of the Bank of Greece).
It rather goes without saying what may happen to the economy and the society as a whole if we lose faith in the enforceability of contracts. Partly, we are currently experiencing in Greece the consequences of the occurrence of such a moral hazard. Apparently, some enterprise and household borrowers that effectively faced no problem in paying their bills have made use of protective legal provisions that were not meant to protect them but enterprises or individuals in real need; in other words, they have jumped in such provisions as "free-riders". And there is a domino-effect at work here: Clever entrepreneurs, acting as 'homines oeconomici', had every reasonable reason to do so, since otherwise their competitors, who had already embarked upon said strategy, would gain a significant comparative advantage and would kick them out of the relevant market.
In addition, the accumulation of many free-riders in the relevant market is possibly exacerbated by the twin phenomena of "herding/herd behavior" and "social mimetism", meaning in our case that we feel much better when we collectively break the law or disregard social or trade norms.
The end-result? Discredit & No Credit. In Greece, the free-riders have caused the very problems that any accumulation of many free-riders causes: The borrower's legal protection has been discredited through its excessive use; thus, the people who are in real need risk of being deprived of this protection. And more importantly, the access to bank credit is essentially precluded not only due to the lack of general liquidity, but also due to the fact that the requirements set to banks for responsible lending are so strict that the very people who need to have access to bank loans, i.e., low-income people, are refused to have such access. Social justice and, in particular, social mobility are, thus, severely damaged.
Cass Sunstein and Richard Thaler are the founders of the so-called "nudge theory". By means of light-touch/mild state interventions, called nudges, said authors purport to promote individual and social welfare, e.g., help people quit smoking, pay taxes on time, conserve energy, and so forth. For instance, they propose to change the default rule for organ donation from "opt-in" (i.e., we become donors only if we expressly declare our will to be donors) to "opt-out" (i.e., by default we are all donors unless we explicitly object to that). Such a transition from an "opt-in" to an "opt-out" system may have impressive results (in the case of organ donation it may lead to a drastic increase in the number of organ donors).
Our stickiness to default rules may be attributed to various biases, mainly to inertia or to the so-called "status-quo" bias or "anchoring-effect".
(a) Informational duties/input that help us understand the consequences of present decisions upon our future prosperity, thus mainly seeking to reduce the impact of hyperbolic discounting. The provision of information is, in principle, to be welcomed. Nevertheless, we must also be aware of the problem of "information overload" and of the marginal utility of (additional) information: Too much information cannot be processed and may lead to adverse results (e.g., we tend not to read lengthy medicine information brochures) and therefore maximal information should not be confused with optimal information.
(b) Short cooling-off periods after the conclusion of the bank loan agreement. Such cooling-off periods (usually of two weeks) are, in general, part-and-parcel in the law of consumer protection. They offer consumers, after a doorstep or distance selling, the chance to once more reflect upon their transactional decision and, if they think that the good or service obtained does not deserve its money –i.e., in essence, that no efficient transaction has taken place–, they have the option to withdraw from the contract concluded "in the heat of the moment" (à doorstep selling) or under "information asymmetry" (à distance selling).
The same approach might also be applied to bank loan agreements, primarily to household loans, which means that the borrowers might be granted the right to withdraw from the agreement within a certain time period (e.g., two weeks or one month) at no expense to them, i.e., by just returning the loan without any interest.
Nonetheless, in our case it is not certain whether the biases or behavioral errors at work here, such as the hyperbolic discounting, only have a temporary impact and thus are likely to retreat or "cool" within two weeks or one month. If this is not the case –that is, if the biases/errors are persistent–, then the right of withdrawal is of no use to the borrowers.
The BLE approach may offer some valuable insights into the borrower's behavior at the time they enter into excessive borrowing or they decide to go down the path of "strategic default". These insights might prove useful, that is, might help us design proper state intervention tools, with the intent to curb, in the future, irresponsible private lending or strategic default.
Αs regards the present, it is self-evident that the NPLs pose a great threat to the Greek economy. Admittedly, there is no easy way out of this messy situation.
The bail-in-tools available under the Bank Resolution and Recovery Directive, which became fully applicable at the beginning of this year, aim to prevent a new bank recapitalisation using state funds, that is, taxpayers' money.
Further, in respect of the distressed asset market in Greece it is submitted that for various reasons this market is rather non-existent, although the newly introduced NPL legal framework allows Asset Management Companies (AMCs) to initiate legal action and any other judicial action necessary to collect debts which they manage. However, according to IMF, Greece still has one of the longest foreclosure periods (five years) and lowest rates of return on NPLs in Europe (see the report of White & Case LLP "Breaking bad: Tackling European NPLs", http://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=6424e927-b3a0-4ada-bac3-bd04441ca9a4). And not to mention that the execution of foreclosures nowadays in Greece is a very sensitive socio-economic issue.
In all events, the Greek banks experience great difficulties offloading their NPLs. Probably, there is a need for more active involvement of institutional actors, such as the ECB or the Bank of Greece –which may provide credible guarantees to the purchasers of NPLs–, as well as of debiasing tools offered by the research done in the field of BLE.


Mono Made Me Do It!
I was very sick and couldn't get out of bed for two weeks. It was mononucleosis.
God had my attention. But what did it mean?
That's when it hit me! "I'm a closet Christian!" My light is hidden under a bushel!" All the wonderful things God has done in my life were meant to bring glory to God.
Feeling convicted about my mostly private relationship with the Lord, the idea to write a blog crept into my mind. I had heard of blogging, but I knew nothing about it and had never thought about reading one, much less writing one.
Before long, I was convinced. The Lord was giving me a compelling desire to write about my Christian journey.
Determined to end my silence, I proclaim the name of Jesus. I write to encourage real Christian women who have real-life problems, women who (like me) are far from perfect. I want to proclaim the Lord's love, faithfulness, and mercy to all who will listen.
I blog, to share the unfathomable love and mercy God has showered on me, a sinner, undeserving, and saved by grace.

To the River by Olivia Laing is about a journey along the length of the River Ouse in Sussex. The Ouse is of course the river that Virginia Woolf drowned herself in in 1941. I believe Laing wrote that the Ouse is 42 miles long, but not all of it is accessible by walkers. I wanted to know exactly how long she had walked but perhaps she never worked it out.
I don't know what I really expected of this book but I found it to be a bit of a disappointment. I began by enjoying the meandering of the author's mind, never knowing which subject might come up next. There's geography and history, odd snippets of information such as that "the silver-leaved tormentil can both stem the flow of blood and dye leather red." She carried out her walk during mid-summer so the fields were full of wild flowers and she wrote multiple lists of flowers that she had seen, which is fine if you know the flowers. Some more in-depth descriptions would have been useful for those who aren't so well-versed in wild flowers. She wrote about The Piltdown Forgery, Shakespeare, Alice in Wonderland, The Wind in the Willows – all sorts, she's definitely eclectic, but ultimately for me – as a person who loves rivers – there just wasn't enough in it about the Ouse. Also the author felt the need to tell us about the dead animals that she stumbled across and even sought out (by smell) along the way – bizarre.
The reason for Laing embarking on this project was her reaction to the end of a relationship and thoughts of Matthew kept popping up. Apparently neither of them could agree to live outwith their own counties. Eventually Matthew went back to his beloved Yorkshire, but really it would have been better if he had never made an appearance in the book as it all seemed rather pathetic, with the author weeping down the phone to him which must have made him think that he had made a good move.


Located in the central region of the state, Orlando was originally the center of a major citrus-growing region, and is now an urban city with various industries. The area is a major tourist destination, home of the Universal Orlando Resort, and SeaWorld, and also about 21 miles northeast of the Walt Disney World Resort. These attractions helped make Orlando the third most visited American city among travelers.

Sometimes the best is saved for last, and at Perrone Robotics (PRI) we've had one the best Q4s so far in our 15 year history! In Q4 we signed new customer contracts with three large multinational customers in the autonomous vehicle, industrial equipment, and consumer robotics verticals. We also continued to grow our workforce in the fourth quarter with 2 new hires and others soon to start. We're very excited to see the promise of the MAX platform start to come to life in these different domains.
Starting with automotive, PRI continued building on its success with a European car manufacturer for which PRI has supplied its MAX platform and other autonomous technology. This customer, using our platform, had a very successful public roads trial overseas, and we acquired and started outfitting another vehicle for more production-level testing. This bring the total of autonomous vehicles to 4 for this customer (2 in the US and 2 overseas).
Still in the automotive segment, PRI entered into a new engagement with one of its technology partners to outfit a 2018 minivan with MAX and a general purpose retrofit hardware autonomy kit. We like to refer to this as "over-the-top" autonomy as we'll deploy hardware to robotically control the vehicle, and then drive it with our MAX platform using our usual set of reference maneuvers for driving on roads and highways and avoiding obstacles, handling other vehicles on the road, dealing with lights, stop signs, intersections, round-abouts, etc. We expect to conclude this project in the Spring and continue our engagement with this partner over the coming year as we jointly explore other aspects of autonomy.
Within the industrial equipment sector we initiated another major effort that involves integrating the MAX platform into mining haul trucks weighing over 140,000 kgs! For this job we are integrating into sensors and control technology specified by the customer and using MAX to control the vehicle, avoid obstacles, and perform various communication and orchestration tasks with the site control. We'll have a lot more to say about this project soon.
Finally, our fourth new engagement involves the development of three prototype small unmanned ground vehicles ("SUGVs") for one of the largest multinational computer companies in the world. The SUGVs are intended to be used as test platforms by the computer company to explore and ultimately launch either personal or professional service robots in the marketplace with MAX as the underlying operating system.
All of this work means that our "stable" of autonomous vehicles and robots continues to grow. We currently have MAX integrated with a sedan manufactured by Lincoln, SUVs manufactured by Jaguar Land Rover, and a minivan manufactured by Honda, not to mention the elder statesmen "Tommy Sr" and "Tommy Jr" from the DARPA grand challenge days. Tommy Jr is getting some new work acting as a mule for our industrial project as our track isn't really sized for a vehicle bigger than our garage! We're also building out some of our orange bots illustrating the broad range of applications on which MAX can be deployed.
Saving the best for last here too, PRI continues to grow its highly-skilled workforce with the planned addition of an executive level employee, multiple software developers, and multiple hardware engineers. We're accelerating our hiring program during the fourth quarter and into 2018. Let us know if you're interested to join the team. Of course the work doesn't stop here – we have many more projects with large customers in automotive, trucking, and other industries coming in early 2018. So as we head into the holiday season, we offer you best wishes during this holiday season and look forward to a great 2018!


Passageways was founded in 2003, but before its creation, it was just an idea. Ideas challenge our capabilities and inspire greatness. The Luminary is an award given to organizations and individuals whose impact to Passageways has been significant.
This year we honored several luminaries and recognized their contributions that light the path for others.
There are certain Passageways family members that have been instrumental in our day to day interactions and development journeys. Without them, we certainly would not be where we are today. This year recognized four different organizations who have been helped Passageways with their innovative ideas.
Purdue Federal Credit Union was Passageways first customer in 2003, and we even survived being in their basement for a number of years. Since then Purdue Federal has been influential in many ways most recently with the Strategic Planning Matrix. Without the innovative mind of, CEO, Bob Falk the Strategic Matrix would have only been a figment of our imaginations.
American Airlines Credit Union has been with Passageways since 2008 and continues to push the envelope with their creativity and passion to engage through the portal. The conception of their landing page has come from the original mind of 'the man in the box' that always seems to think outside of the box, Carlos Galvan.
Lake Trust Credit Union has been with Passageways since 2004. Because of this group, the Products & Services module has become one of the most relied on tools that we offer. Christina Monroe received the award on behalf of Lake Trust Credit Union.
The Besties competition has become one of the most popular events at PowWOW each year. This next category of individuals that received a Luminary award this year are those who have previously won a Bestie and will be inducted into our Bestie Hall of Fame.
People's Utah Bancorp, formerly Bank of American Fork, has been a long time Passageways customer since 2007. In 2009 Ken Burnett won a Bestie for Best New Module. Ken has also played a key role in the development our Learning Management Application.
Belco Community Credit Union joined Passageways in 2007. Derrick Gebhard took control of their portal in 2011 and developed a unique and engaging approach to customizing their portal. In 2013 Derrick won a Bestie for Best Internal Development.
Fidelity Bank joined Passageways in 2013. In 2014 Anthony McSwain won a Bestie for Best Internal Development. Anthony's eye for great design has made their portal distinctive with their culture integration and cohesive branding. Anthony was also a finalist in the Besties again this year and we are already looking forward to his presentation for next year.
Enrichment Federal Credit Union joined the Passageways family in 2010. Katherine Flinchum has been a source of support and inspiration. Many of you have directly benefited from her dedication either through peer webinars, direct calls, or publications of best practices incorporated through their portal solution.
The Luminary award is given to organizations that have long believed in Passageways. Those that been central in shaping our future. We honor these organizations for charting the course and lighting the path for others.
Credit Union of America joined the Passageways Family in April 2004. They have implemented both OnSemble and OnBoard. They also won a Bestie for their Chalkboard implementation. Lori Smith received the award on behalf of her organization.
In January of 2005, Kohler Credit Union jumped into the Passageways Family. Through their OnSemble implementation, Kohler Credit Union has had great success. Naomi Sehloff represented Kohler Credit Union at PowWOW.
Great Lakes Credit Union joined Passageways in January of 2005. They implemented OnSemble and are now getting started with OnBoard! Great Lakes has put their faith in us for many years, and they are now on the fast-track to strategic alignment and new success. Rachel Ringler received the award on behalf of Great Lakes.

Mine!: How the Hidden Rules of Ownership Control Our Lives | Michael A. Heller - James Salzman
Michael A. Heller James Salzman Property Law Administrative Law Law Specialties Social Psychology & Interactions Law Social Psychology
An Adam Grant Spring Book Pick
Finalist for the Next Big Idea Club
"A must-read this spring -- a fantastically well-written exploration of our need for ownership and the costs of greed."
--Andrew Solomon, National Book Award-winning author of Far From the Tree
A hidden set of rules governs who owns what--explaining everything from whether you can recline your airplane seat to why HBO lets you borrow a password illegally--and in this lively and entertaining guide, two acclaimed law professors reveal how things become "mine."
"Mine" is one of the first words babies learn. By the time we grow up, the idea of ownership seems natural, whether buying a cup of coffee or a house. But who controls the space behind your airplane seat: you reclining or the squished laptop user behind? Why is plagiarism wrong, but it's okay to knock-off a recipe or a dress design? And after a snowstorm, why does a chair in the street hold your parking space in Chicago, but in New York you lose the space and the chair?
Mine! explains these puzzles and many more. Surprisingly, there are just six simple stories that everyone uses to claim everything. Owners choose the story that steers us to do what they want. But we can always pick a different story. This is true not just for airplane seats, but also for battles over digital privacy, climate change, and wealth inequality. As Michael Heller and James Salzman show--in the spirited style of Freakonomics, Nudge, and Predictably Irrational--ownership is always up for grabs.
With stories that are eye-opening, mind-bending, and sometimes infuriating, Mine! reveals the rules of ownership that secretly control our lives.
"Thought-provoking . . . Mine! sets out to change the way we think about what we own, which is often decidedly at odds with reality."
--The New York Times Book Review
"An easy-to-read, Freakonomics-style ramble through the space-saver wars of South Boston and the ingenious architecture of Disney World's skip-the-line FastPass+, the book challenges our assumptions about who owns what — and explores how those assumptions can be manipulated, for good or for ill."
"In Mine!, Heller and Salzman examine a wide array of ways that people lay claim to things, both actual (as in treasure) and more abstract (as in ideas). Since ownership is constructed, it's always up for grabs."
"Mine! is enjoyable, well-written and with a deftness of touch that belies the radical re-examination of property rights at its heart. It is hard to come away without reconsidering how you feel about problems as everyday as putting towels on sun loungers or foraging for berries, but also bigger questions of bodily autonomy and land ownership. This is one book you will not feel sorry to capture for yourself or, perhaps more appropriately, borrow from a library."
--The Financial Times (U.K.)
"This delicious book will guide you through the confusing maze of ownership disputes that bedevil our daily lives. Who owns your 'private' information, your Netflix password, your yard's airspace, and the chair of your deceased parents that you and your sister now both want? It's often unclear: read and prepare yourself!"
--Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and Steel, winner of the Pulitzer Prize
"Mine! is one of those rare and treasured books that make you feel smarter and change the way you see the world. So much of the news I read just makes more sense now. I haven't had an experience like this as a reader since Freakonomics. The authors deliver a rollicking good read, filled with amazing stories about the secret rules of ownership and why they work in unexpected ways. This is way too much fun for an important book by leading minds in their field."
--Barton Gellman, three-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize and author of Angler and Dark Mirror
"Who knew there are hidden rules of ownership controlling our lives? I didn't until I read this fascinating, illuminating book. I'm very glad I did."
--Robert Cialdini, author of Influence and Pre-Suasion
"A delightful, often funny, book that brings to life the hidden but essential assumptions about how we own things — or imagine we do. It is filled with one irresistible and revealing story after another where the secret turns out to be who owns what, from Adam and Eve to the birth of barbed wire. Mine! will challenge how you think about everything from the groceries in your shopping cart to concert tickets on a scalping site. Make Mine! yours."
—Charles Fishman, author of One Giant Leap and The Walmart Effect
"A fascinating discussion of what ownership is, what it isn't, what it might be. It's immensely clarifying, beautifully written, and perfectly timed -- and it might improve the world to boot."
--Cass R. Sunstein, co-author of Nudge and author of Too Much Information
"An academic barfight book. Completely joyful to read but it's a thing to start and settle fights because everyone thinks they're right."
--Roman Mars, host of 99% Invisible
"Heller (The Gridlock Economy), a professor of real estate law at Columbia Law School, and Salzman (Drinking Water), an environmental law professor at UCLA, examine how competing principles of ownership shape human behavior in this illuminating account. . . They stuff their survey with intriguing legal cases and historical lessons and display flashes of wit. Readers will gain fresh insights into the law and society from this entertaining and instructive guide."
--Publishers Weekly
"Who owns what underlies human conflicts, economic development, innovation, and international relations. With vivid stories and memorable insights, Heller and Salzman decode legal rules about ownership much as Freakonomics decodes economics and psychological rules of incentives."
--Martha Minow, Former Dean, Harvard Law School
MICHAEL HELLER and JAMES SALZMAN are among the world's leading authorities on ownership. HELLER is the Lawrence A. Wien Professor of Real Estate Law at Columbia Law School. He is the author of The Gridlock Economy: How Too Much Ownership Wrecks Markets, Stops Innovation, and Costs Lives. SALZMAN is the Donald Bren Distinguished Professor of Environmental Law, with joint appointments at the UCLA School of Law and the UCSB Bren School of the Environment. He is the author of Drinking Water: A History.

Samsung, Apple head for courtroom confrontation
After 17 months of filings, a patent battle with enormous stakes for both companies shifts to a San Jose, Calif., courtroom this week.
July 29, 2012 9:14 p.m. PT
Now playing: Watch this: Inside Scoop: Apple and Samsung's patent battle
Monday marks the start of the U.S. trial between Apple and Samsung, two companies that have spent the past 17 months attempting to disembowel one another with legal filings -- all while quietly doing business together that helps keep them afloat.
The dustup between the two is of intense interest, not only in Silicon Valley, but to the electronics world at large.
At stake for Apple is a possibility to convince a jury -- and perhaps the world -- that one of its biggest rivals could only have gotten where it is by copying Apple technology. Beyond that, the company is vying to keep Samsung's products off store shelves, with the potential threat to do the same to others if the bid is successful.
Samsung, meanwhile, will attempt to make the case that Apple's hottest gadgets -- the iPhone and iPad -- would have been impossible to develop without its technology. Furthermore, it contends that if Apple is successful against it, the outcome could "stifle legitimate competition," with a corresponding impact on consumers.
Both of these arguments were made in pretrial claims filed by the two companies last week. With either side, the case centers on the importance of intellectual property. Patents, both for the design of gadgets, as well as the inner workings of software, are being used as ammunition. The implications will be especially noteworthy if one of the companies comes out on top, making any patents involved more valuable.
To help tell that tale will be witnesses from both sides. Apple and Samsung both get 20 people to make their case. That includes Apple senior vice presidents Phil Schiller and Scott Forstall, two regulars during the company's public sales presentations, who now get to answer questions under oath. Others on the stand include industrial designers from both companies, patent experts, inventors, and computer scientists.

In the run-up to the trial, which is expected to last about four weeks, legal documents have unearthed a wealth of information that was not previously available to the public. That includes myriad photos of early iPhone and iPad prototypes, e-mail correspondence between executives, and full transcripts of depositions from expert witnesses, which had been recorded over the past few months. Both companies are working to keep some of that out of the courtroom, but parts could make it in as evidence.
At the center of it all is the relationship between the two companies, which, suffice to say, can only be described as complicated. Even as it's throwing punches in court, Apple is Samsung's largest customer. Apple buys LCD panels, flash memory, and the chipsets that power its iOS devices from the South Korean technology giant. Apple also dropped $100 million into one of Samsung's semiconductor subsidiaries back in 1999 to ensure it could help get enough screens for its iBook laptop.
That relationship, and its long-term outlook, is likely to be tested, depending on how the trial plays out. While experts believe that the two will simply reach a settlement, the fact that the struggle has already reached this point without a private resolution suggests this may very well be a long, drawn-out fight.

CNET will bring you full coverage of the trial -- which is slated to begin today with jury selection, and potentially opening arguments.

Saturday, 28th August 62 Miles, 4 hours 41 minutes.
Weather: Cool, dry and windy.
Not a pleasant days ride – the first 50 miles into a strong headwind and then had a puncture coming out of Perth with only 10 miles to go (2 minutes earlier had a conversation outside Tesco's with a cyclist named Roddy about only having had 3 punctures so far). Only consolation, I suppose, at least the route was fairly flat. Between Montrose and Arbroath cycled down to beautiful looking beach at Lunan Bay (Alan Percival's recommendation for the day), passed golf course at Carnoustie approaching Dundee.
I managed to avoid the busy A90 between Dundee and Perth by cycling on minor road running parallel to it and the Firth of Tay.
Whilst I was having dinner at my accommodation, I met Maggie and Alan (friends of Debbie and Allan who I will be staying with tomorrow night in Kirkcaldy) who had suggested staying here at the Crees Inn in Abernethy.


A few days ago, the lady I work for, who is totally awesome, introduced me to the KonMari method of organizing. I've been trying my entire life to get organized, to purge all of the junk that I don't need, and to keep the house tidy. This doesn't come naturally to me. My inability to keep the house orderly causes friction between my husband and me. He is one of those people who was born organized. For him, keeping house is second nature. He's a minimalist at heart, where I tend to accumulate stuff. So much stuff. Because maybe I might need it one day or I'll get around to fixing it or sure it's too small but what if I need it in a pinch?
Did this item bring me joy when I purchased it?
Does it bring me joy now?
The KonMari method of tidying is based on the idea that instead of choosing what to get rid of, choose what you want to keep. Choose the things that spark joy and inspiration so that you surround yourself with that feeling of happiness. Here is a youtube video where Marie Kondo describes how her method works. It's long, I know. But believe me, it's worth it, and this is coming from someone who won't watch a youtube video longer than 3 minutes!
There is a very specific way to go about doing this, so after watching the video, I snapped up a copy of her book, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up .
Is it broken? If yes, can I repair it? If yes, realistically, will I have time to repair it? If no, toss.
Does it fit? If no, donate.
Do I enjoy wearing it? If yes, keep. If no, donate.
When I finished, I had a massive pile of clothes to donate (and of course a few that just needed to be pitched), an orderly closet that makes me smile, and a sense of order and control over my clothes that is expanding in tangible ways to other parts of the house.
Sure, I'd already done my closet, but it's not just my closet that needs to be tidied. It's my entire house. And wouldn't it be wonderful to teach my children that instead of buying a bunch of stuff that fills spaces to surround themselves with joy and let go of things that no longer bring happiness?
Have any of you tried the KonMari method? How has it worked for you?

Unfortunately my daughter hit her beloved XJ and is now in search of a grill and perhaps a fender. she was able to save the flare but needs fix the pass. side front corner... Also noticed that part of the horn is hanging on 1 wire. so if you still have a complete horn laying around somewhere? Also need front bumper corner section as well as the center steel part. There's one more question... I see a vacuum hose going down behind the lights (broken) but was it attached to anything or is it just a drain? Her Jeep is Deep Amethyst Pearl. but does not need to be colour match. Who can assist?
Vac line should have been attached to the "softball" (vacuum canister). It sits up inside the bumper.
I may have a passenger side front panel kicking around, but it'll be outside and it's cold as beans out there.... and probably a horn.

That's Country
Punk rock was breaking and musical styles changing, but in New Zealand country music was appointment viewing at 7pm on Saturday. That's Country ran from 1980 to 1984. Hosted by one-time pop singer Ray Columbus, the show featured both local and international talent including Suzanne Prentice, Patsy Riggir, Emmylou Harris and George Hamilton IV. An American offer to buy the show and install a US presenter were resisted. Instead the show was sold to a Nashville cable TV network, in a New Zealand first; That's Country soon had an audience of 30 million in the States.
Newsview
In the early 70s regional news programmes screened after the nationally-broadcast Network News. Newsview was a Wellington edition, running around the same time as This Day in Auckland, and The South Tonight screened to Christchurch and Dunedin audiences. It ran for 15 minutes every night at 7pm. A notable episode featured an interview with 17-year-old Shona Laing, a precocious pop singer while still a student at Hutt Valley School.
Popstars
Popstars was a key part of the late 1990s reality television explosion. The series followed the creation and development of all-female pop band TrueBliss (Carly Binding, Keri Harper, Joe Cotton, Megan Alatini and Erika Takacs). The five singers went on to record several chart-topping singles, and a platinum-selling album. Also a hit was the series format, which sold around the world and helped inspire Pop Idol/American Idol, the franchise that would dominate reality television for years to come. Popstars was named Best Entertainment Programme at the 1999 NZ Television Awards.

Principal of Connerton Elementary School, FL, was arrested for allegedly stealing $900 from a 9-year-old child, who deputies say is intellectually impaired.
School payments, solution for accountants, school business manager.
The Sheriff's Office say, the 9-year-old student brought his parents' money to school. When teachers realized the issue, they took the money and counted it, placing it in the principal's office. When the mother of the child went to school to get the money, deputies say the principal gave her only $1,200 not the $2,100 her child had brought to school. "Subsequent investigation by deputies determined the Edward John Abernathy kept the $900 difference," the Pasco County Sheriff's Office wrote in a press release. Then "admitted he put the money in a spot only he knew of," which led to the principal's arrest. Deputies booked the 50-year-old Abernathy into the Pasco County Jail on one charge of grand theft. He bonded out Thursday night.
