The pack bag consists of a main compartment, 1.5" tall zippered top pocket, generous wand pockets, and a Velcro loop field on the underside of the zippered top lid. Materials include 1000d cordura on the suspension side and bottom, hypalon details, and 500d cordura for the rest. The chassis is dual 7000 series aluminum stays landed in the included Prairie Belt, HPG's signature contoured shoulder harness, and an HDPE framesheet. The qui-Ya is made in the USA by First Spear out of US materials.
There are a handful of small details that are different, but that's the gist of it. Otherwise they're the same pack. The larger volume of the qui-Ya comes both from the additional 4" of frame height (additional 5.5" pack height including new pocket) and also from 2" more in girth. So which one is right for you? That depends.
If you're a taller guy, the extra 4" of lifter height will be a big bump in comfort over the Ute. Even at my height of 5'10", the qui-Ya is a little more comfortable with a similar load.
If this is to be a dedicated backpacking pack and you will be carrying larger volume loads (winter trips or group trips where you're taking up slack on group equipment), then the qui-Ya is indicated.
On the other hand, the Ute is a better generalist. It's still the 80% pack -- small enough to use as a gear intensive daypack (like in winter or for climbing), good for international travel, but can also handle really heavy loads and multiday backpacking trips (if you're using modern compact gear and add one of our back pockets). With a 5.5" shorter height, it's also easier to navigate through areas with lots of overhanging obstacles.
Both packs share the same chassis and will carry as much as anyone should carry in any internal frame pack. They will both compress down equally well, except the qui-Ya will still be taller. Here's an analogy -- true externals like the old Dana Terraframe (and the one we're still working on) are the 1 ton trucks of the load bearing world. The Ute / qui-Ya chassis is a 3/4 ton chassis. In the case of the Ute, we put an SUV body on that chassis. In the case of the qui-Ya, we put a larger body on that chassis that is better matched to the chassis' working capability. That gives the qui-Ya a better weight to volume ratio than the Ute. And it also means that if you are always carrying that much volume, the qui-Ya will be easier to get your load onto because of its greater volume.
So there it is, no clear advantage, but some pros and cons for you to consider in making your choice.
Looks like a hell of a pack! Thanks for showing a load being carried with the compression panel and the bag collapsed. I had it in my head that it would work with my Ute, and it has been mentioned here that it will. By the looks of that rock, it works very well.
If some of the different features prove popular/awesome would they trickle down to the Ute? the lid pocket and loop field look pretty darn handy.
Should be an AWESOME tall guy pack, just poked around the pack section at REI for the first time in awhile today and I'd forgotten how few of the "large" packs have enough frame for tall folks.
The other significant thing about a tall frame is that you must have frame to properly stabilize a load. Our over the top stabilization method helps, but it's only a partial solution. A shorter frame simply can't carry as much volume as well as a taller frame.
We've already had discussion about the top lid on the Ute. Right now, the consensus here is that even the minimal 1.5" pocket (plus the stiffness of the velcro field) can get in the way of compressing the Ute down to day pack size when that is what is warranted. On the qui-Ya, I've already learned that if I want to really compress the pack, I have to leave the top lid unzipped and folded down on the inside of the pack bag.
I measured my back today to get an idea of how this pack would fit my frame/body and from my hips to the top of my shoulders is roughly 20 inches. What other measurements do you all utilize when measuring for a pack such as this?
This pack has a torso length that will go quite short, so that isn't an issue for anyone. The only real variable is at what angle the load lifters will be and how tall the frame will stick above your shoulders. It's a 28" frame with a 1.5" pocket on top. So it sounds like on you the qui-Ya would be 9.5" above your shoulders with the load lifter take offs 8" above your shoulders. When internals were regularly this tall, there were often 2 sets of load lifter take offs - one at the tops of the stays, one partway down. I'm honestly not sure that the partway down ones added any value for shorter folks.
This is THE pack I've been waiting for....can't wait until they are available!
Which Pocket are you all thinking for the qui-Ya?
The most obvious choice right now seems to be the Connor, but since I already have one of the now discontinued Highlanders, I will probably run that on it.
I'll probably go the opposite, with the size of the bag being what it is, I'll probably go small and organized on the back pocket. Might start off really small with the Aston Pocket off my Aston House pack to see how it fits and go from their or might even run it naked. The beauty of it is you certainly have lots of options and can really dial it in.
For winter travel, I was happy with the Connor. Lots of extra things I wanted available regularly like trail crampons and mittens. On the trip in the product video, I went back to using Palspocket which I think would be great most if not all the time.
And best of all, it fits everything I want to be able to stuff in there, should I go all-out on loading it up.
Had a box of awesome waiting for me when I got home yesterday. Alot like a kid on Christmas morning, I had to load it up and take it for a stroll. Threw right at 60 lbs in it and it felt great! Can't wait to get it in the woods.
Very happy for you guys and a little envious, too! I'm hoping to have my hands on one soon. I got to see Evan's at our WInter Skills Event and really loved the look of it. For taller guys, the qui-Ya is going to be a Godsend. It kind of reminds me of the 1st Gen Lowe Alpine Vector packs we had on the ODAs back in the day. Those were a tall pack, but they sure were nice for getting all of the bulky winter gear into the ruck, along with chow, spare radio batteries, spare magazines, med gear, demo gear, etc.
Is there an ETA for the Foliage qui-Ya?

First Impressions – Black looks cool!
A black shirt is one of those clothing items that you either love or hate. However you feel about a black dress shirt, it is impossible to deny its versatility, spanning the dramatic coolness that it can bring to the daily work wardrobe, all the way to the sombre respect that it pays at a funeral. Much as you never want it, when the day comes to attend such a serious event as a funeral, you want that black shirt. You do not want to be standing out looking like you're off to a party.
Black is dramatic and a strong canvas to work with. Having a new black shirt felt cool, and it already looked sharp, even in the plastic packaging. I was going to wear it to the office asap.
When I washed ironed this shirt, I took a little extra care, since I've had black shirts in the past almost immediately took on tacky shine marks from being ironed. However, this shirt presented no problem and ironed up beautifully. I paired it with one of my more expensive ties and was ready to impress!
Throughout the day, this shirt remained quiet cool to wear. I know it's a cotton polyester blend and should have been much the same as other such shirt, but without a word of lie, this shirt was definitely cooler to wear, and this time I am definitely talking about comfort not the look. Although I must admit, a few light hearted compliments about looking cool were appreciated and reinforced my opinion that occasionally changing up the fashion sense and wearing something different is a good thing to do.
The fabric almost felt slightly thicker than the other VH cotton polyester shirts. This slight difference in fabric is probably was caused it to stand up so well to a full day a crease-inducing activities. It certainly still looked smart at the end of the day, which was good to see.
This is an enjoyable shirt to wear. It has consistently been comfortable and it has stayed looking sharp. The black colour itself has not faded all, despite being regularly fried on the clothes line in the sun, and it is still a sharp looking shirt once ironed.
Although it is an Easy Care shirt, it definitely requires ironing every time.
Being solid black in colour has given me some extra flexibility with combinations of shirt and tie. A tie that looks just OK with a plain white shirt can suddenly pop with dramatic flair when paired with this black one. Equally, a dramatic tie that stands out strongly on a white shirt takes on a whole new dimension when worn with a black shirt. It's nice to have extra choice from the same wardrobe simply by changing one aspect such as the shirt.
Conclusion – Black is still cool.
I won't become one of "those guys" that wear the full black to the office everyday, but this a black shirt is an essential part of my wardrobe, and this Van Heusen one has earned its place for a while to come. Recommended.

All organizations face risks to information and information assets. Many organizations seek to identify and control those risks, usually as part of a structured approach to information security risk management. ISO/IEC27001:2005 is an international standard specification for an Information Security Management System (or 'ISMS'). Organizations that develop an ISMS in line with the specification of ISO27001 can receive external, third- party certification that their ISMS conforms to the standard, and such a certificate can have significant commercial, financial and compliance benefits. ISO/IEC17799:2005 is the international Code of Practice for information security; it provides detailed guidance to support the specification contained in ISO27001 but is not, itself, a specification. This Pocket Guide to the ISO27001 risk assessment is designed to assist asset owners and others who are working within an ISO27001/ISO17799 framework to deliver a qualitative risk assessment. It also conforms with the guidance provided in BS7799-3:2006 and NIST SP 800-30.

This is the automobile for you if you feel that production cars aren't getting fast enough
The Pininfarina Battista shattered the 0-60 mph production vehicle acceleration record in in 1.79 seconds.
The Battista exceeded 60 mph in less than two ticks, which is faster than it takes most automobiles to start.
This seems like a little achievement in a world where cars are moving faster and quicker.
But only three years ago, it was a record that appeared insurmountable until the Tesla Model S
The Bannister effect, which seeks to explain why some records seem unreachable until they are smashed
appears to be at work in Pininfarina's initial effort at a hypercar.
Then, it seems like everyone and their mother could accomplish such a thing with ease.
A first-time carmaker has broken the barrier of the sub-2 second record for a car to launch itself to 60 mph by over three tenths of a second.
Today's EV hypercars are faster and more nimble than Hermes himself, and serve as a beacon for electric vehicles.
This is also true of the Battista. Even though this is Pininfarina's first attempt at a hypercar in production
In addition to designing and building coaches for major players like Ferrari, the automobile company was also the primary driving

The Englishwoman's review (of social and ..., Volumen27,Tema 1 -Volumen28,Tema 4
editado por Jessie Boucherett
May 15th, 1882 Liberal side. She moved :-" That this association
" offers its hearty congratulations to Mr. Gladstone on the bold and generous policy he has adopted towards Ireland, and expresses its earnest hope that the country will support £im in this fresh effort to remove every Irish grievance.
Miss BLACKBURN seconded the resolution, and spoke of the benefits of organisation. If Conservative women would organise, she should welcome it exceedingly.
MAINTENANCE OF SOLDIERS' WIVES. In the discussion on the army estimates, April 17th
Mr. SEXTON moved the insertion of a clause with the view of making the soldier's liability to maintain his wife and children as strict as is the civilian's. This, he maintained, it was not under the present wording of the Act, which made it possible for men to be sheltered against claims which they would be bound to meet if they were civilians.
Nr. 0. MORGAN defended the wording of the Act, and opposed the amendment on the ground that it proposed to take away the discretionary power of the Secretary of State in certain cases.
After remarks by Mr. Biggar,
Mr. RYLANDS said it was impossible to accept the proposal in its present form; but when it was shown that a soldier had deserted his wife and children he agreed that the word "shall" should be substituted for "may" in regard to the order by the Secretary of State requiring the soldier to contribute to their support.
Mr. C. BENTINCK remarked that in the case of a wife of good character an order was invariably made, and that when a system was working so well it was undesirable to make
alteration. Mr. TAYLOR thanked the hon. member for Sligo (Mr. Sexton) for bringing forward this matter. He had himself in previous years urged the abolition of the state of affairs complained of, and he had thought the whole grievance removed by the Act of 1881. It was to be hoped that the amendment would be pressed to a division.
Mr. CHILDERS repeated his promise, made on the
second reading of this Bill, fully to consider before next Session the questions raised by the hon. member for Sligo. As at present advised, however, he held that the discretion of the Secretary of State ought not to be abolished entirely.
After a few words from Mr. Sexton and Mr. Hopwood, the Committee divided For the amendment
49 Against
116–67 The clause was agreed to, and the Bill as amended was ordered to be reported.
SHOP ASSISTANTS. On April 16th a meeting, convened by the Shop Assistants' Labour League, was held in Trafalgar Square, in support of the movement for promoting legislation to shorten the hours of labour in shops. A good many young girls, shop assistants, were at the meeting. Å resolution was passed declaring that it was not necessary to keep shops open after 8 p.m., and attributed the present long hours to "the greed and selfishness of a minority of employers who purchase wealth at the expense of the diseased and worn-out frames of grown girls, youths, and adults of both sexes, and who thus hinder generous employers from closing early." It further pledged the meeting to avoid the shops
which were kept open after the hour named, and to influence others in the same direction.
HER Majesty's Principal Inspector of Factories appends to his report to the Home Secretary some remarks sent him by Superintending-Inspector Whymper upon the home life of women in dressmaking and drapers' establishments. Mr. Whymper says:
I have made myself acquainted with the internal arrangements of the establishments of some twenty-five of the larger drapers, &c., of the west central and western districts of the metropolis. I have also visited several of the Homes which provide board and lodging for females of the class named, as well as of the restaurants which offer them refreshment. The drapers visited employ indoors nearly 6,000 females ; of these about 1,500 are " assistants," i.e., saleswomen and showroom hands; and over 4,000 are workroom hands, i.e., milliners, dressmakers or mantlemakers. In three establishments none sleep on the premises ; in one only all do so, both assistants and workers, to the number of 140. Of the aggregate number employed,
some 1,850 appear to board and lodge on the premises, about 1,500 being assistants. The reason why the boarders are composed almost exclusively of these is because they are to the employer of far more value than are the workroom hands. He is therefore anxious to take extra means of fixing the former in his employment. Heads of departments, first hands in the several workrooms, and apprentices have the next chance of lodging privileges, while the ordinary millinary and dressmaking hands, as persons whose places can be more easily filled up, form the contingent which is, for the most part, left to shift for itself as regards lodging. Of the workroom hands it is the more capable who are ugually lodged. Non-residents often take French leave, especially for two or three days after a regular holiday, and this is inconvenient to the employer in proportion to the skill of the person who absents herself. "I think that the boarders have little' to complain of. I can express nothing but approval of the accommodation which I have seen. Only a few, indeed (as a rule, heads of departments, &c.), had, at the time of my visit, à room to themselves, but under some firms there is no greater number than two in a room, and I was told more than once that steps were being taken to provide each person with a separate apartment. So large a number as five or six, and that in a large room, is exceptional. The bedrooms themselves are clean, tidy and usually airy and cheerful. The amount of sitting-room accommodation differs at various places. At one place I found four large sitting-rooms for about 130 persons, with newspapers, periodicals, a large library, and pianos ; at another, with about 100 persons, I found two sitting-rooms, a library, a reading-room, and a music-room with piano; at a third, a sitting-room for every 20 persons, with a separate club for women. Again, elsewhere I was told of four bathrooms with fitted baths. I visited an establishment where two distinct houses, each with housekeeper, cook, and the necessary servants, were maintained for the indoor hands, a doctor in regular attendance being paid by the firm. From a member of another firm we heard that he had lately spent £1,500 in the purchase of a library for his assistants. The same reason which induces an employer to provide comfortable lodging, not to speak of luxuries, for a large proportion of bis hands, viz., the value to him of the latter-would naturally cause him to see to the goodness and sufficiency of the food. I myself had a sight of two or three bills of fare, as well as of the food itself, and I could not find fault. The exact precautions taken to ensure respectability varied at different establishments, but in all there was evidence of care and of a sense of responsibility. About the home life of the day-hands not very much seems to be known to the employers. Inquiry on this head is no doubt made by some of the latter with more, or probably less, strictness, and we were assured that the great majority live with parents, relations, or friends. But, even assuming this to be correct, and allowing for a small minority satisfactorily cared for in those excellent institutions, the "Homes," I cannot but conclude that there must be a large number living in lodgings. I have evidence of the highest authority to this effect as regards one important parish. "Many young women," I am told, " from the large drapers' shops, and almost all those employed at the lesser shops, i.e., the smaller
15th, 1882
milliners and dressmakers, live in lodgings, many of them in the neighbourhood, and generally two together." With this my information from other districts, though less authoritative, entirely concurs ; and it is here that we come to the reverse side of a picture which has hitherto been favourable; life in lodgings being, in the words of one of the most intelligent and apparently conscientious of the employers, "but the first step in a downward road." This is no doubt somewhat too strongly put; still it can hardly be denied that an unprotected life of complete independence is not what one would recommend to a young woman in London; and it is to a recognition of this fact that is due the establishment of the Homes, which claim to 6provide a safe and comfortable home for respectable young women
engaged in houses of business, or seeking employment in such." The Homes which I have seen or teard of in the central or western parts of London north of the Thames, are over a dozen in number. In London south of the Thames I know of but one, and that one is occupied almost exclusively by servants.
The lady artists and designers engaged at the Lambeth Pottery (Messrs. Doulton & Co.'s) met at the new buildings on the Albert Embankment on Wednesday evening, April 26th, to present a testimonial to Mr. Doulton, the principal of the firm, on the completion of the tenth year of female employment in connection with the art-department of the potteries. Thanking the donors for their gift, Mr. Doulton said it would be placed among his most valued possessions.
MANCHESTER FREE LIBRARY.—The Manchester Guardian, May 3rd, says the vacant office of Librarian of the Ancoats Free Library has been filled by the appointment of Miss Emily Casserley. The fact is noteworthy as it is the first time that a lady has been placed at the head of one of the branch libraries in Manchester, and the number of lady librarians throughout the kingdom is very small. Miss Casserley entered the service of the Library Committee in 1871, and has fairly earned her promotion. The Mayor of Manchester, in an address to the Library Association, has told the story of the experiment of the employment of young women as library assistants, and of the success that has attended it. It was due to his influence that this new opening for women's work became available, and the benefits that have followed the adoption of women librarians in Manchester will not be without their weight elsewhere.
SOCIETY FOR THE EMPLOYMENT OF WOMEN. The Annual Meeting of this Society, presided over
by Lord Shaftesbury, took place at the Society's offices, 22, Berners Street, on Friday, the 12th inst. We are unable from the lateness of the date to give a detailed report of it.
The Society has to regret the loss of the help of Miss Warne who, for 18 years, has taken charge of the book-keeping class, but who now, from weakened health and pressure of other duties, is obliged to give it up. Her example had been invaluable in inspiring her pupils with energy and accuracy. .
SUFFRAGE. A meeting was held at Gloucester on May 3rd, in the Corn Exchange, Mr. S. Bowley presided, and there was an influential gathering of ladies and gentlemen. The meeting was addressed among others, by Mrs. McIlquham, who said that no more suitable time than the present could have been chosen for discussing this question at Gloucester, when her electoral fate was trembling in the balance. The threatened disfranchisement of Gloucester would make it sympathise with women who had always been a disfranchised class. Why did Gloucester fear disfranchisement? Because, besides being a mark of degradation, it meant an inability to press claims and grievances on the attention of Parliament.
FOOD PRODUCTION SOCIETY. A meeting of the Committee of the above was held on May 9th, at 9, Upper Phillimore Gardens, Kensingson. It was announced that the lectures at South Kentington on Poultry-keeping, the Dairy and Bee-keeping, although the attendance at the two latter courses were not very numerous, had been so satisfactory that they would be repeated next year. An agricultural exhibition in connection with these lectures had been designed, but at the last moment when all preparations had been made, the Commissioners of the Exhibition found there would be a difficulty in procuring the buildings belonging to the Horticultural gardens, and the scheme was necessarily abandoned. The lectures next year will be given in the large lecture hall.
It was suggested as one means of extending the use

 *
 *

 * val decorateToStringValue = PrivateMethod[String]('decorateToStringValue)

 * The type parameter on PrivateMethod, in this case String, is the result type of the private method

 *

 * Here, targetObject is a variable or singleton object name referring to the object whose
 * private method you want to test. You pass the arguments to the private method in the parentheses after
 * the PrivateMethod object.
 * The result type of an invokePrivate operation will be the type parameter of the PrivateMethod
 * object, thus you need not cast the result to use it. In other words, after creating a PrivateMethod object, the
 * syntax to invoke the private method
 * looks like a regular method invocation, but with the dot (.) replaced by invokePrivate.
 * The private method is invoked dynamically via reflection, so if you have a typo in the method name symbol, specify the wrong result type,
 * or pass invalid parameters, the invokePrivate operation will compile, but throw an exception at runtime.

Solar plane flies over Egypt pyramids on globe-circling trip
In this Wednesday, July 13, 2016, handout image provided by Solar Impulse, the Solar Impulse 2 flying over the pyramids, Egypt Cairo. (JEAN REVILLARD / REZO / Associated Press)
CAIRO – Flying through the haze over the pyramids of Giza, an experimental solar-powered airplane arrived on Wednesday in Egypt as part of its globe-circling voyage.
The Solar Impulse 2 departed from the Seville airport in Spain on Monday and landed at the Cairo International Airport on Wednesday morning. This leg of the trip had been expected to last about 50 hours and 30 minutes.
The aircraft, piloted by Swiss aviator Andre Borschberg, had arrived in Seville on June 23 after an unprecedented three-day flight across the Atlantic.
The around-the-world voyage began in March 2015 in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates and is due to finish there in the coming weeks.
The wings of Solar Impulse 2, which stretch wider than those of a Boeing 747, are equipped with 17,000 solar cells that power propellers and charge batteries. The plane runs on stored energy at night.
Ideal flight speed is about 45.06 kph (28 mph), although that can double during the day when the sun's rays are strongest.
The solar project, which is estimated to cost more than $100 million, began in 2002 to highlight the importance of renewable energy and the spirit of innovation.

17 new cases of coronavirus confirmed in Cleveland; city establishes emergency loan program for local businesses
There are now 181 cases of the virus in Northeast Ohio's largest community.
Author: WKYC Staff
Published: 6:54 PM CDT April 4, 2020
CLEVELAND — 17 more Cleveland residents have tested positive for the coronavirus, bringing the total number of cases in the city to 181 (with two deaths).
City Hall says the new patients range in age from their 20s to their 60s. The overall number is higher that all but six entire counties in the state of Ohio, with Cuyahoga as a whole leading the way with 781 cases (13 deaths).
Cleveland remains under a proclamation of civil emergency at the direction of Mayor Frank G. Jackson, who on Saturday also announced the city has established an emergency fund to help businesses in the community who have been forced to close indefinitely. The program allows for loans of up to $10,000 with no interest or payments needed through the end of the year, with 1% interest and monthly payments of $150 a month after that. Potential applicants can learn more here.
The coronavirus pandemic has claimed the lives of more than 8,000 Americans, including more than 100 here in Ohio.

Tony Abbott's honesty pledge could founder on new deficit 'tax'
By Mark Kenny
April 29, 2014 — 10.15am
'Deficit tax' not a broken promise: Tony Abbott
Three years ago, Julia Gillard took what she believed was a decision about mere language - whether a new carbon price to be set by government was technically a tax or a charge.
It turned out to be utterly crucial and ultimately killed her leadership.
Having heroically decided on a fixed carbon price period, Gillard wanted no quibbling on the language.
Despite declaring "there will be no carbon tax under the government I lead" before the election, she decided not only to go with the carbon price, but to accept up-front that it was to operate like a tax.
Tony Abbott is facing a battle ahead over whether his deficit levy is really a tax. Credit:Penny Stephens
She would cop the criticism on the language before moving on to the more productive argument over the policy's substance, which she believed she could win.
It was a fatal political mistake. Tony Abbott ensured the debate never moved to that next stage.
Notwithstanding majority public support for action on global warming, the substantive policy debate was never allowed to re-ignite because Abbott ensured it stayed focused on deceit - on Gillard's breach of trust.
Counterpointing Gillard's "honesty" problem, Abbott's double-pledge was that he would keep all of his promises including that there would be no carbon tax and no new taxes. He recently labelled Labor's trust problem a "quagmire" and one into which he would never stray.

And yet here he is today, not even a year on the clock or a first budget under his belt, and these central pledges are hanging by a thread.
Voters know what was said because it was repeated so often - no new taxes, no broken promises, no surprises, no excuses.
They will now be measuring these unqualified statements against his words on Melbourne radio on Tuesday as a pre-justification for a deficit levy: "We do have a short-term problem and we do need to deal with it," he told 3AW.
"I think if there was a permanent increase in taxation that would certainly be inconsistent with the sort of things that were said before the election.
Abbott is asking for the kind of understanding from voters that he did so much to deny the previous government.
"We want taxes going down not going up, but when you're in a difficult position, sometimes there needs to be some short-term pain for some long-term gain."
Let's be clear. Abbott is asking for the kind of understanding from voters that he did so much to deny the previous government.
Worse, he is playing word games when it is abundantly clear that the "levy" being considered, is a tax, plain and simple. Far more so, incidentally, than the fixed price per tonne on carbon pollution.
Going to the substance of the levy, it is arguable that it is worth considering because there is a revenue shortfall and there is a need for expenditure and taxation to be re-aligned. That is, for both spending to brought down and taxation increased.
But as to the claim of an emergency or a crisis, that is not supported by the facts.
Either way, by his own test, Abbott may have surrendered the right to have that substance debated.

Chilling mystery as human remains found 'tightly wrapped' and buried under apartments as cops probe key clues
7 December 2022 by admin
MYSTERY surrounds the discovery of a dead body 'tightly wrapped' for 'some months' found buried under an apartment building.
Cleaners discovered the unidentified human remains locked away in space behind a brick wall within the Australian apartment complex.
The body will remain at the scene for forensic investigations tonightCredit: Not known, clear with picture desk
A crime scene has been established as the investigation beginsCredit: Not known, clear with picture desk
Police were called to Alderley in Brisbane's northern suburbs and confirmed a body was uncovered at 10.45am on December, 7, 2022.
Detective Superintendent Andrew Massingham said: "Examination of that area located an item that we, at this stage, have identified by preliminary examination as being human remains,"
"The person has taken great care to wrap the body up in a certain way and preserve it," he said, and it had been there for "some months."
He added that the remains had been "tightly wrapped" and covered in several layers of clothing and bedding, as reported by ABC News Australia.
A crime scene has now been cordoned off and investigations are underway to establish the deceased's identity and cause of death.
On whoever stashed the body, DS Massingham said: "They've also transported it to an area that's not really accessible, and whether it was their intention to leave it there or come and get it at some later time and simply haven't is part of what we'll be looking at."
Despite being hidden away for a considerable amount of time, "there was no noticeable smell or any other indications that were suspicious to these people," according to the Detective Superintendent.
This was attributed to the method by which the body was wrapped.
Investigators are currently combing through months worth of missing persons reports to try and identify the victim.
The body will remain at the scene tonight for forensic examinations.
The area behind the wall where they were uncovered was normally kept locked by the complex manager, according to the Detective Superintendent.
"What is quite concerning, obviously, is that these remains have been here for some time," he added.
He also claimed that the person or people responsible "had access to this area on more than one occasion," as reported by 7 News Australia.
Anyone who has any information is being urged to get in touch with police immediately.
An investigation centre has been set up at the Hendra police station.

This is Seth Freaking Rollins. He's really freaking good.
Did you know that he took the WWE World Heavyweight Title from Brock Lesnar? Or that he's the only man to cash in a Money in the Bank contract in the main event of WrestleMania? Or that he's the only human being to ever hold the WWE World Heavyweight and United States Championships simultaneously?
If you don't, worry not: He'll tell you soon enough. And if you somehow manage to tune out his (justified) boasts, it won't be long until this hybrid athlete's skills in the ring turn you into a believer. A veteran of the independent scene who's more ninja than wrestler, Rollins set up shop as one of WWE's on-the-spot history-makers from the second he walked in the door. From his reign as the first-ever NXT Champion to his vaunted time as the "Architect" of The Shield, Rollins' first two years in WWE were a master class of evolution. Coincidentally enough, that's the name of one of the factions he and his fellow Hounds of Justice managed to upend in their near-spotless two-year run throughout WWE's ranks.
He's even better flying solo, racking up accolades faster than WWE can produce them. Within 15 months of The Shield's breakup, Rollins had won a Money in the Bank contract and converted it into the WWE World Heavyweight Title and added John Cena's U.S. Title to his trophy case. Is it even possible to hold this ascendant athlete down? If you're lucky, but only for the short-term. As he's fond of saying, Seth Rollins is the future, and the future can't be stopped.

[Video] Godz Chyld – Heavens Pt. 2 (Look Around) | @G0dzChyld
by admin | Jul 12, 2018 | New Music | 0 comments
Bronx, New York emcee G.C. a.k.a. Godz Chyld presents the music video for "Heavens Pt. 2 (Look Around)", the lead single from Woke, his new EP produced by longtime collaborator Jordan River Banks (watch the video for "Blue Flame" featuring Killah Priest and Loaded Lux). GC describes the new single as "a sequel to a song me and Jordan had on our first project 'Forever'. On that song I was saying I'm gonna take you to the heavens – on this one I'm taking you there. I'm expressing that I feel Heaven is a state of being and a state of mind, and the imagery of my lyrics is what's gonna take you there if you can follow me." GC and Banks have two other collaborative projects between them: Rebornand Forever, and GC released the Things Ain't What They Seem EP in 2017 (stream). "Woke is where I feel we all need to be right now," GC says of the new project. "A lot of people are going around saying they're woke and I think it's become more of a trend than a real thing. So I just wanted to bring something real back to hip hop and give people something to feel, and also my perspective on some of the issues going on right now."

Christie says he supports medical marijuana

CEDAR FALLS, Ia. -- Chris Christie told a room of Iowans Friday that medical marijuana should be allowed through strict, state-run programs but he would enforce the ban on recreational pot.
Christie was questioned about cannabis oil at a town hall in Cedar Falls. Fadua Maslak said her 14-year-old daughter Kendall suffers from intractable epilepsy and asked how Christie would regulate the non-hallucinating pills and oils derived from marijuana used to treat such diseases.
"This is a decision on medical marijuana that I think needs to be made state-by-state," Christie said. "I don't want it used recreationally, but for medical purposes, it's helpful for certain adult illness and certain pediatric illness. So where it's helpful and when a doctor prescribes it, I have no problem with it."
Christie, the New Jersey governor and a Republican presidential candidate, has made headlines in the past week for reiterating that he would crack down on recreational pot use in states like Colorado.
New Jersey has a medical marijuana system for people with certain disorders who have received a recommendation from two doctors.
Iowa legalized a non-hallucinogenic form of medical marijuana in 2014. But the law provides no way for people to obtain the substance because it is illegal to make it in Iowa or transport it to the state.
FOLLOW ALONG: Iowa Caucuses Candidate Trackers
Fadua Maslak's husband Ed Maslak's has an ID card to obtain cannabis oil but said he can't buy it.
The Cedar Falls couple told the Register that Kendall suffered her first seizure when she was 17 months old and has had two brain surgeries.
Ed Maslak said he hopes cannabis oil can diminish Kendall's symptoms and he is looking for a caucus candidate – Republican or Democrat – who will stand up for a national system permitting medical marijuana.
"I appreciate that (Christie) addressed it, but what I didn't hear him say he would create a national or federal program," Ed Maslak said. "What he said is basically, I'm going to take a hands-off approach."
Christie spoke to about 150 people at a sports bar in Cedar Falls Friday evening, taking 11 unscreened questions from the audience.
Earlier in the day, he spoke at the Shot Tower Inn Dubuque, where he called for campaign finance reform.
"You should be able to take as much money from whoever you want, but you should have to disclose it within 24 hours on the internet," the told a crowd of about 120 in the downtown restaurant.
AT THE EVENT
SETTING: Beck's Sports Gill in Cedar Falls
CROWD: About 150 people filled the U-shaped bar
REACTION: Audience members applauded on several occasions. The biggest laugh came when Christie alluded to Donald Trump's proposal to build a wall the length of the Mexican border and have Mexico pay for it. "I love Donald, but come on man. This isn't 'The Apprentice.' That's not the way this works. You can't look at the president of Mexico if he isn't paying for the wall and say 'You're fired.'"

Nelly Toll (geborene Miese, geboren 19. April 1935 in  Lwów, Polen; gestorben 30. Januar 2021 in Old Bridge, New Jersey) war eine jüdische Holocaust-Überlebende, Künstlerin, Autorin und Dozentin für Literatur und Kunst.

Leben

Nelly Toll war eine Tochter der wohlhabenden jüdischen Familie Miese. Als die Sowjetunion 1939 Ostgalizien besetzte, musste sich ihr Vater verstecken, um eine drohende Evakuierung nach Sibirien zu verhindern. 1941 besetzte die deutsche Wehrmacht Lwów und Nelly musste mit ihrer Familie ins Ghetto umziehen. Ihr erst fünfjähriger Bruder wurde von den Deutschen verschleppt und ermordet. Nelly und ihre Mutter Rozia fanden Anschluss an eine Gruppe, die versuchen wollte, über die Grenze nach Ungarn zu fliehen, was jedoch nicht gelang. 1943 fand der Vater ein Versteck für Nelly (zu diesem Zeitpunkt acht Jahre alt) und die Mutter bei einer befreundeten katholischen Familie. Im Versteck, einem kleinen Zimmer, hielt die Mutter die Tochter an, zu zeichnen und zu schreiben, um sich abzulenken. Nelly Toll schrieb Tagebuch und malte mit Wasserfarben. Es entstanden sechzig Bilderhefte, die die Träume und Sehnsüchte des Mädchens nach einem normalen, sorgenfreien Leben verdeutlichen. "Man sieht nichts von Krieg, nirgends. Nicht von Terror und Angst. Das sind bloß Kinder, und ich habe mir wohl vorgestellt, dass ich eines Tages auch einmal zur Schule gehen würde. Ich habe sie meine Wasserfarben-Freunde genannt. Ich habe sogar mit ihnen geredet", sagte Nelly Toll später über ihre Bilder.

1944 wurde die Stadt Lwów von der Roten Armee befreit und Mutter und Tochter konnten ihr Versteck verlassen. Sie erfuhren, dass sie die einzigen Überlebenden der Familie waren. Sie emigrierten dann 1951 in die USA, wo Nelly weiter malte, Artikel und Bücher schrieb und als Dozentin für Literatur und Kunst an verschiedenen Universitäten tätig war. Ihre Dissertation "Integrating Holocaust art and aesthetics into the curriculum" behandelt das Thema, wie man Kunst als Brücke in der Holocaust-Aufklärung für Schülerinnen und Schüler nutzen kann. Sie lebte mit ihrem Mann Ervin Toll in Vorhees, New Jersey.

The first semester at UNSW went over my wildest expectations. I got 7/7 in all four courses and a best project award. This semester my expectations have therefore been higher. So far I am a bit disappointed with my results in some topics (Negotiation Skills); in others I think I have exceeded expectations (Computer Networks and Management of Risk). I believe that a subjective course where the outcome is judged on reports/written assignments are harder to control (someone might not like the conclusions) than courses that involve more calculations and measurable outcome. Negotiation Skills might be the course where I put down most effort and enjoy the most, however my performance is worst.
Management of Risk assignments (14+14+20)/(20+14+20) = 89% ?
Strategy and Entrepreneurship 87,5% ?
Why do an assessment? I can, without being wrong, say that almost all students don't assess their results. Studying is my profession. I am a student. With this in mind a rational student should have to take studies seriously and look for options to continuously improve.

BONUS! Chef Bry's Food for Thought!, Wednesday Review, Scammers & Scam Baiting, Living Boldy & Kindly in these Times Part 2
On this thoughtful episode, Rebecca and I announce the new podcast & YouTube show Bry's Food for Thought! Then we go into the post-holiday blues, and how do we get the year off on the right foot, despite feeling sort of uggo about winter and post-holiday letdown., Then we'll talk all about my newest TV viewing addiction, scammers and scam baiting, a phenomenon where scammers, mostly from countries like India try to scam old people, the vulnerable, and those technologically disinclined folks out of thousands of dollars, if not their entire life savings! We'll discuss the details of the scams, those who are most vulnerable, and the counter-initiative by YouTubers who take on these scammers, called scam baiting, where they essentially collect evidence, annoy, and try to discourage and levy information to discourage and get law enforcement to shut these scammers down. But because of lax laws, bribes and payoffs, and India's inherent corruption, sometimes they aren't always caught or disincentivized as they should, but they simply relocate and start up again. We'll break down these scammer's methods, as well as how Youtubers, scam baiters, and regular people can fight back and empower themselves to not get duped, as well as finding ways to not generalize about Indian people just because of a handful of bad eggs doing bad things. We'll also talk about how much fun it is to watch, but just how serious and dangerous this type of thing is!Then in part 2 we'll pick up the conversation about regressive systems and fighting to move society forward. We'll also talk about some very encouraging new scientific research about how we might one day soon be able to hack our brains through science, to discover the root causal link between depression and a lacking in motivation and ambition, to find a way to hack our brains to not lose ambition during depressive episodes. Then, our Wednesday review of the hit Netflix show based on The Addams Family, and the positive message it sends about being yourself and letting people be different, and to embrace your innner-wierdo in essence! Lastly, we'll wrap things up by talking about how to live in an often exploitative, sometimes unkind and unfriendly society, and how we might keep our productivity, positivity, joy, and kindness at the forefront of your lives despite the inherent mediocrities and perils of the modern living in the "modern" world.

Iskandar Malaysia was conceived as part of a broad proposal to establish five regional economic corridors, outlined in the Ninth Malaysia Plan 2006-2010; the objective being to ensure balanced growth and help the country achieve developed-nation status by 2020.
Officially inaugurated in 2006 and located on the southern tip of Johor state, Iskandar Malaysia is being strategically planned to foster the evolution of a modern conurbation, with nine promoted sectors having been prioritised to maximise effective investment. The project has now entered its third and final development phase and the second half of its 20-year lifecycle. It will be guided by the second iteration of the Iskandar Malaysia Comprehensive Development Plan (CDPii), which stipulates wealth generation, wealth sharing and inclusiveness, and resource optimisation and low carbon as the foundational elements to drive the growth of a sustainable ecosystem.
In this context, International Investor brought together key decision makers that are shaping development in Iskandar Malaysia, including representatives from the Malaysian government, as well as the investment, real estate, retail, logistics, creative and academic sectors. The debate objective was to identify and prioritise ways to stimulate long-term growth to 2025 and beyond. Discussion took place under a Strategic Review format with the debate focusing on ensuring the development of a strong and sustainable metropolis of international standing. This included addressing a number of key challenges, from tackling supply versus demand imbalances to the availability of human resources for companies hoping to take advantage of the region as a low-cost location.
A principal theme of the Strategic Review was to emphasise a people-centric approach to development including local capacity building, job creation and human resource management. Innovation and entrepreneurial activity were highlighted as critical components of sustainable growth, in addition to strengthening public transport networks, quality of life indicators, the digital economy, and relations with neighbouring Singapore.
By the conclusion of the debate, Strategic Review participants had agreed on several key areas. There was a broad consensus that efforts must continue to maximise the strengths and resources of all parties in a more cooperative framework. And that this would facilitate the completion of high-impact catalytic projects while also ensuring a favourable investment climate conducive to inclusive prosperity and a sustainable future.
Realising the Iskandar Malaysia Vision
Ismail Ibrahim
Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA)
"Investment and inclusiveness are interlinked. The development of the promoted sectors is helping to create distinct clusters that are, in turn, giving rise to new employment opportunities for local people. This is generating an improved quality of life by enriching economic as well as physical and mental wellbeing opportunities for everyone".
Sarena Cheah
Managing Director, Property Development Division, Malaysia and Singapore
"State engagement of the private sector is crucial [going forward]. This could include the introduction of certain new incentives, for example, additional exemptions for businesses and individuals from the entertainment tax, as defined under the Income Tax Act, in order to boost tourism".
Prof. Dr Wahid Omar
Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
"It is essential for stakeholders to continue communicating to the local community, especially in a more effective and widespread manner, the impact of the projects on their livelihoods, including the improved opportunities, rising income growth and enhanced socio-economic development".
Christian Rojkjaer
IKEA Southeast Asia
"In order for the economic region to truly succeed in the long term it is now vital that stakeholders switch their attention to focus on elements such as better living standards and quality of life".
The robust development framework, which has been key to the success achieved to date, will be a crucial factor as the economic region moves towards 2025.
Focus must remain on nurturing and amplifying the local talent pool in order to reduce the need to import talent from other regions and nations.
Further clarification on bilateral relations with Singapore, in terms of business, economics and accessibility, is required to maximise related opportunities.
Misperceptions regarding the Johor region in Singapore are detrimental to growth and must be addressed via a collective, cross-sector campaign.
Property developers are continuing to enter into joint ventures, which reflects their confidence in the economic region.
Continued catalytic projects in housing, education and entertainment are required to enhance Iskandar Malaysia's international standing and livability.
Public dissemination of successes achieved to date should be enhanced via in-depth research, analysis and impact assessment initiatives.
The formation of new alliances in community engagement and human capital development will further entrench inclusive and sustainable growth.
Stakeholders should encourage the growth of social enterprises, community initiatives and environmental respect through mutually supportive frameworks.
Creating a diversified society via a people-centric approach will generate long-term success by incentivising relocation to Iskandar Malaysia.

How to Transform Iskandar Malaysia into an Attractive and Sustainable Metropolis?
Khairil Anwar Ahmad
Iskandar Investment Berhad
"I think the strategic communications plan should be reviewed. The joint development of a stakeholder communication strategy based on a set time period, whether a year or three years, will help players to pool their resources and avoid a situation in which efforts are duplicated".
Shahrull Allam Shah Abdul Halim
Johor Port Berhad
"The arrival of [more] multi-national corporations to Iskandar Malaysia will help drive the emergence of new start-ups and SMEs. It is the duty of stakeholders in the economic region to aid the integration of SMEs following the entrance of big players; success will depend on enabling participation to some degree".
Azman Mokhtar
Khazanah Nasional Berhad (Khazanah)
"Too much top-down is unhealthy; effective PPPs must be arranged and play an increasing role, particularly in light of fiscal constraints. Accordingly, one priority is to harness the energy and ideas of the younger generation by embracing the 'indie economy'".
Relationships with all ASEAN partners, not just Singapore, will be crucial in driving development in Iskandar Malaysia.
Frequent and open discussion and engagement between public, private and academic stakeholders is critical to the planning and implementation process.
Stakeholders must focus on stimulating innovation, for example, by means of industrial design awards involving local universities and the private sector.
Equal emphasis must be placed on all five flagship zones.
Embedding a culture of nurturing young talent will give rise to an ecosystem that incubates new ideas and generates transformative change.
Strengthening the public transport system will increase connectivity between the geographically disparate flagship zones, which is vital.
In-depth community engagement and baseline research will help property development initiatives to fully incorporate local requirements and aspirations.
Engaging young persons directly at the university and institutional levels via start-up assistance schemes will increase Iskandar Malaysia's attractiveness factor.
As local talent development initiatives increase, employment posts must be created to retain skilled graduates.
IRDA is well positioned to act as the communication conduit between high-level decision makers and the local population directly impacted by policy.
Future-proofing the Economic Region
Prof. Tony Downes
Provost and Chief Executive Officer
University of Reading Malaysia
"It is vital that political forces continue to contribute to the wider development process. For example, political differences and cultural issues must be reconciled in order to address the inclusiveness factor".
Anwar Syahrin Abdul Ajib
Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer
UEM Sunrise
"Stakeholders [should] concentrate their efforts on ensuring that Iskandar Malaysia becomes a genuine hub in a small number of specific segments. For example, there are tremendous opportunities to transform the economic corridor into a world-class destination for healthcare. This is just one possibility out of many".
Akmal Ahmad
"It is important to target the generation of an entire ecosystem in which entrepreneurs and innovators, from the graduate level up, receive suitable support and backing in order to grow".
Expediting border-crossing procedures between southern Johor and Singapore will boost long-term connectivity.
Consistent government policy will facilitate efforts to attract international investors and give rise to a positive and reliable investment climate.
Encouraging proficiency in the English language will facilitate the development process.
Ensuring flexibility in the growth plans and value proposition of Iskandar Malaysia will enable the region to adapt to changing local, national and international realities.
Iskandar Malaysia can position itself to take advantage of the potential changes to the Singaporean economic reality over the medium term.
To maximise the opportunities presented by the digital economy, financial support, business incubators and start-up accelerators will foster growth.
Soliciting personal feedback from past and present investors and stakeholders in Iskandar Malaysia will generate ecosystem improvements.
Advancements in the fields of big data and the Internet of things will attract people looking for a modern and innovative setting in which to live and work.
Industry leaders should establish, as soon as possible, proposals stipulating how they will meet Malaysian carbon-reduction commitments under the 2015 United Nations Paris Climate Conference.
Attracting green technology industries to Iskandar and promoting the emergence of a circular economy is crucial to long-term sustainability.
Maximising Sustainability
"A number of blueprints and plans have been devised since 2006 and that is perfectly natural; the initial period was a planning phase. Moving forward, it is important that these plans are viewed as living, changeable proposals based on realism and which are able to evolve according to the particular circumstances of the time".
Michael Lake
Group Managing Director
Rhizophora Ventures
"A very serious threat [that must be overcome] is complacency. The real danger is that stakeholders start to become complacent and shift their focus away from the attitude that 'today is the beginning', which is a fundamental part of being able to come up with fresh and innovative ideas".
Nor Mohamed Yakcop
"It is essential to continuously focus on what comes next. In truth, we are only just at the beginning of the journey that will probably last far beyond 2025. Accordingly, it is crucial that [a] long-term view permeates from the top down, starting with the participants sitting around this table".
Additional enforcement and standardisation in the port industry will help to create a level playing and facilitate the push towards long-term growth.
Open dialogue and cooperation between the governments of Malaysia and Singapore is critical to the continued growth of the logistics sector.
There is space for the private sector, civil society and academia to collaborate to maximise both the potential and the legitimacy of current and future projects.
Khazanah is willing to facilitate collaboration between non-State actors in distinct fields to formulate industry and community-based strategies to boost sustainability.
To counter possible negative effects of global instability and changing circumstances, stakeholders must guarantee strategic flexibility in planning.
Fostering the growth of a common and organic culture in Iskandar Malaysia is central to establishing strong communities throughout the economic region.
Steps must be taken to continue to attract national and foreign immigration while simultaneously preserving Johorian history, culture and heritage.

Q: Applet Code runing well in eclipse environement but not in the browser i'm stucked on this point since 3 days and i'm out of idea.
If someone could help, my week will start really well !
I'm writing a java applet.

*

*Under eclipse environement it works well.

*I build the jar (with all the dependencies aggregated) and launch it on a browser (chrome, firefox, ie ...). The code below does not work anymore because it returns an empty list:

Iterator iter = ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("DICOM");
It seems that the Image Readers that claim to be able to decode the DICOM format are available under eclipse environement but not under browser environement ...
I don't think it's a security exception as i have no such error (I have no exception, problem is the returned list is empty).
Thanks in advance for any clue ...

A: I've found the solution. A spi image reader was not found into the manifest. It was because the dependencies jar files were aggregated into my jar, leading my manifest to be overriden by another. Now I don't aggregate my jar anymore and it's ok, my manifest stay safe and the spi image reader is found.
