Q: Converting HTML date to Oracle date I have an html input type date that i want to insert into oracle date. How do I make the conversion into the oracle date? so far I have this,
DUE DATE
    <input id="duedate" type="date" name="duedate" size="10" maxlength="10" value="" />

    <input class ="button" type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit!" />

</form>

 <?php
  // If the submit button has been pressed...

  if (isset($_POST['submit']))
  {
    $s = oci_parse($conn, "INSERT INTO TIMESPAN
         (HEAD_MARK, INIT_DATE, DUE_DATE, SUBCONT_ID, REMARKS)
          VALUES (:hMark, SYSDATE, :dueDate, :subcontId, :remarks)");

    oci_bind_by_name($s, ":hMark", $_POST['headmark']);
    oci_bind_by_name($s, ":dueDate", $_POST['duedate']);
    oci_bind_by_name($s, ":subcontId", $_POST['subcontid']);
    oci_bind_by_name($s, ":remarks", $_POST['remarks']);

    $result = oci_execute($s, OCI_DEFAULT);

    if ($result)
        {
            oci_commit($conn); // COMMIT TRANSACTION
            echo 'INSERT TO DB COMPLETED';
        } else {
            oci_rollback($conn); // ROLLBACK INSERTION
            $m = oci_error($s);
            echo "ERROR OCCURED".$m;
        }
    oci_close($conn);

A: Assuming dd-MMM-yy format then something like this should work:
oci_bind_by_name($s, ":dueDate", strtoupper(date('d-M-y', strtotime($_POST['duedate']))));

A: To put a "string" date into a "date" variable type in Oracle you need to use the TO_DATE() pl/sql command: http://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/functions/to_date.php
TO_DATE($_POST['duedate'], 'mm/dd/yyyy')

JV partners to carry State's 'sunk cost'
11:51, April 20, 2019
Joint venture partners of the Papua LNG Project will carry the State for at least 50 percent of the 'sunk cost' needed to secure the State's equity in the project.
Money already spent, but that is not recoverable, is a sunk cost.
This will be repaid once first gas is produced at an interest rate of 7 percent.
Speaking after the signing of the Papua LNG Project Agreement, which defines the fiscal framework of the project, Prime Minister Peter O'Neill said an understanding has been has been reached with the JV partners for the deferment of the state 'sunk cost' for its equity in the project.
The Prime Minister said the arrangement does not put pressure on Treasury to find the money to fund the state's interest and avoids the borrowing of massive loans.
"In terms of the sunk cost, the sunk cost that we are obligated to pay when we participate in the project, again I want to extend our appreciation to the joint venture partners for their understanding that we will defer the payment of the sunk cost to the joint venture partners – that is after the first gas," said O'Neill.
"When we are in production, our country can start paying some of the cost that they (JV partners) have incurred which means that we are not putting stress on our resources, that treasury cannot be able to be told to pay for these costs upfront and we do not have to go and arrange expensive borrowings overseas, so that we can fund these.
"So the understanding is that when we produce gas we will start paying the sunk cost. Similarly to equity, when you recall the first LNG, we had to go to Arab, we had to go to other banks in the region to try to borrow money for our equity to pay for these sunk costs, that is not going to happen in this project
"We don't want expensive loans that are to the detriment of our country, we are paying very expensive prices for those loans," said O'Neill.
The JV partners include Total E&P PNG, ExxonMobil and Oil Search.
"We are having a fixed interest rate of 7 percent, that 7 percent is much lower than any commercial loan that any Government entity or government has ever borrowed before.
"Just to give you an example, when we went to the bond market, we issued a bond at 8.25 percent, meaning we pay at a higher price.
"Now the JV partners have agreed to a funding of 7 percent which I believe will be much lower than if we went to the commercial banks to borrow from them.
"But if there are cheaper options, the JV partners have agreed to a flexibility that we can repay that earlier if we have cheaper financing elsewhere. So it gives us a lot of opportunity that we participate meaningfully and at the least cost to our people, and our country."
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister highlighted other key outcomes of the project agreement which include:
20,000 direct employment
Maintained equity guaranteed to PNG of 22.5 percent owned by the country
Clawed back some exemptions given in first LNG
Much higher royalty and development levy
A new production levy, not in the Oil and Gas Act, with the understanding from developer
New 5 percent Domestic Market Obligation, reduced from 10 percent in MOU, for better pricing per mmbtu which means cheaper gas will be available to our country.
Agreed that commercial terms will allow for third party access, meaning that we can be able to develop stranded gas around project areas.
Stability clause in the Project agreement for US$250 million to be maintained in the country while 10 percent of all export revenue will be returned back in the country.
The Prime Minister said the project is the first where nearly 50 percent of the take will come back to PNG.
The Papua LNG Project will see an investment of K13 billion.

Eustis Street Burying Ground, Roxbury, MA aka "Eliot Burying Ground"
Eustis Street, Roxbury, MA 02119
Joseph Weld is buried here. Along with many others of the early colon.
"This is Roxbury's earliest cemetery, established in 1630. The burying ground is named for Rev. John Eliot, Christian missionary to the native peoples of the Neponset. Eliot is buried in the Parish Tomb, along with other early ministers of the First Parish of Roxbury. Two colonial governors are interred in the Dudley family tomb, which dates from 1653. Members of the renowned clockmaking family, the Willards, were buried here in the 1840's when Roxbury was a manufacturing center."

William Fletcher Weld's Empire
December 19, 2016 December 16, 2016 LSLLeave a comment
William Fletcher Weld was one of the true merchant princes of Boston's golden age. In looking for material on him, I wasn't able to find any of the funny stories, or strange coincidences that are usually out there, just accounts of how much money he made, which at his death was estimated to be between US$ 17 and 20 million.
His father, William Gordon Weld, who had fought pirates and captained his own ships, died with little if any money for his family. William Fletcher then set to work to make it back, first by working in a counting house, then buying waterfront real estate, and ultimately getting into the ship-building business, and the rest as they say…is history.
The following is a brief excerpt from Isabel Anderson's book, Under the Black Horse Flag.
A Weld ship flying the black horse flag
THE FOUNDER OF THE FLEET
…The story of the William Fletcher Weld shipping trade is so full of incident and anecdote that it can best be prefaced by a summary of his larger accomplishments. Very early in his young manhood he bought wharf property and began ship‑building. In 1833 his firm built the largest ship of the day, the Senator, and from that time forward ship after ship was added to the list until his vessels became a fleet, and William F. Weld and Company were believed to be the largest firm of ship‑owners in America. At one time he controlled the markets for Manila and for Russian hemp. His own counting‑rooms were on 4~ Central Wharf. Eventually he took into the firm with him his two sons, William Gordon Weld and George Walker Weld. Richard Baker, Jr. was, I think, always his partner, and although they had disasters, William F. Weld continued the partnership, for he said that Baker could transact more business in a few hours than any one else could in a whole day.
William Fletcher Weld
From the NEHGS Register… a copy of which was found in the barn in Brookline, inscribed in pencil to Mrs. George L. Pratt, 1891.
HISTORICAL AND GENEALOGICAL
APRIL, 1891.
THE family of Weld dates back to 1352, William Weld, High Sheriff of London. The New-England branch came from Suffolk, the home of Governor Winthrop.
In 1632 Captain Joseph Weld, with his brother, the Reverend Thomas Weld, being "Puritans of the Puritans," came to New England for freedom ; not penniless adventurers, with nothing to lose and everything to gain, but leaving behind home, comfort, prosperity and assured position, for conscience' sake.
Captain Joseph Weld settled in Roxbury, Mass., and became a freeman in the colony, which made him a grant of several hundred acres, now West Roxbury Park. This was the family home for nearly two hundred years.
Being well trained in arms, he was a valuable aid to Governor Winthrop in military affairs, and served in numerous fights with the Indians. His death was a great loss to the colony, and is mentioned by Winthrop. Savage stated that he was the richest man in the colony, at the time of his death, and was one of the first donors to Harvard College, of which his brother Thomas was of the first Board of Overseers.
William Fletcher Weld, the subject of this sketch, the sixth generation from Captain Joseph Weld aforesaid, was born in the old homestead, April 15th, 1800. His grandfather, Eleazer Weld, was a Judge, and also Colonel in the Revolutionary War, and Paymaster of Washington's army at Cambridge, in 1777 and 1778.
Capt. William Gordon Weld: Excerpts From "A Family Letter"
The following, by W. Rodman Peabody, was taken from Frances Weeks Lawrence's manuscript, and was originally published in the Bulletin of the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities.
In common with so many other New Englanders, the Welds heard the call of the sea ringing loudly and persistently in their ears. By 1802 at least one member of the family was trading with Europe, in command of his own square-rigged ships. In 1802, William Gordon Weld, while in command of his armed ship "Jason" off Tunis, fought and beat off an Algerian ship, one of the terrors of the sea, and recaptured two American brigs with their crews. In 1812, his ship "Mary" was lying in the river at Lisbon. He had discharged his cargo of dried fish and barrel staves and was waiting for his factor to collect his return cargo. Nearby the English frigate "Spartan" swung at her anchor. He [Weld] was of companionable character and like all other Welds since his time regarded a good cook as one of the necessities of life. It was a natural result, therefore, that Mr. Weld and the captain of the "Spartan" formed the habit of dining with each other on alternate evenings. Eventually, the "Spartan" received orders to sail for England, and dropped down the river on an ebbing tide. Shortly afterwards, Mr. Weld, despairing of obtaining a profitable cargo, determined to return to Boston in ballast with the proceeds of his outward voyage converted into doubloons, which were packed into kegs.
Connecting Joseph Weld's Land Grant to Allandale Farm
December 12, 2016 December 2, 2016 LSLLeave a comment
A few months ago, my aunt, Lee Albright, asked me what we could and couldn't say with historical accuracy on the subject of the Weld origins of the land Allandale Farm now sits on.
I actually ended up sending her a succession of emails in reply. The problem was that I initially found multiple statements online that I credulously believed; but as I dug deeper, it became apparent that there are large gaps of knowledge. And some or much of what is available online is simply wrong.
Eventually, I came up with the following, which I think is pretty solid, historically speaking, but then again, I've already been wrong on this several times.
The land that is home to Allandale Farm and The Apple Orchard was given as part of a larger grant from the Massachusetts colonial legislature to Capt. Joseph Weld, in the mid-1600s. It has been continuously farmed by descendants of the Weld family since the late 19th century.
Joseph Weld's Will
December 9, 2016 December 2, 2016 LSLLeave a comment
This is the document to which Isabel Anderson referred, the last will and testament of Capt. Joseph Weld.
(Weld Mss. with the N. E. H. & G. S.) 1646.
Ipswich, this second day of the fourth month. (june).
Being visited by the hand of the Lord, and not knowing what the purposes of God may be; my spirit being restless and out of quiet because my house is not set in order, I think it my duty to go about the work having first sought to God for direction; and though I cannot do it so well as I might had I been at home, yet because I know not whether ever I shall return, I do therefore make this my last will and testament as followeth.
The Treaty Joseph Weld Orchestrated with the Pequots
This is it—the text of the treaty the colony was so grateful for that they gave Capt. Joseph Weld the land grant. As such, it is the ultimate upstream origin of Allandale Farm, though I will have more to say about that in a later post. (Things are not as straightforward as some online sources make them seem.)
(R. of Mass. Bay II: 40-1)
This writing is to testify that wee, Pumham, sachem of Shawomock ec. & Sacononoco, sachem of Patuxet ec., have & by these psents do volentarily & wthout any constraint or pswasion, but of or owne free motion, put orselues, or subiects, lands, & estates under the govrmt & iurisdictio of the Massachusets, to bee govrned & ptected by them according to their just lawes & ordrs, so farr as wee shalbee made capable of understanding them; & wee do pmise for our selues, & all or subiects, & all or posterity, to bee true & faithfull to the said governmt, & ayding to the maintenance thereof to or best ability, & from time to time to give speedy notice of any conspiracy, attempt, or evill intension of any wch wee shall know or hear of against ye same; & wee do pmise to bee willing from time to time to bee instructed in the knowledge & worship of God. In wtnes whereof wee have hearunto put or hands, this 22th of the 4th mo. 1643.

Q: Does Entity Framewok Code-First supports following yet? Migrations for Oracle. There are examples of creating Databases for MSSQL(and they work), but search for Oracle examples returns messages about errors. So can I use EF Migrations with Oracle databases yet?
Production deployment. Is there a way to create database Code-First way in runtime(okay, maybe this question is stupid), meaning: without running 'Update-Database' in Package Manager Console.
I read that EF team planned to support running this from Command-line or something, but what's status of this feature?

A: The answer to first question is no (I'm even not sure if provider model for other databases is already available). The answer to second question is yes - it is how common database initializer works but you cannot update the database at runtime. That requires migrations and migrations currently doesn't support this.

Malta's old capital, the Silent City, Ċitta' Notabile, some of the names Mdina has been given during its amazing history which spans thousands of years but also different empires and civilisations.
It is not yet clear whether the Temple Builders were present on the hilltop now occupied by Mdina but recent archaeological excavations have revealed remains from the Bronze Age. Through ancient written sources we know that the city was known as Melite and was occupied by the Carthaginians. Phoenician tombs have been widely found in areas surrounding Mdina, especially on the next hilltop at Mtarfa. The Romans conquered Malta from the Carthaginians in 218 BC.
Back then Mdina was much larger, its walls enclosing an extensive area of Rabat. In fact part of the ancient Roman ditch is located behind the main church in Rabat while a Roman country villa, the Domus Romana and Roman Christian catcombs have been located just beyond the current walls of Mdina. It is highly likely that the city was reduced in size during the time of the Byzantines. The latter were defeated in battle by the Arab forces who changed the name of the city to the one by which it is still known, Mdina.
After the Normans conquered the Maltese Islands back into the Christian fold in 1090 AD, various noble families settled in Mdina however Malta's destiny was far from settled. The Maltese Islands passed to the German Hohenstaufen dynasty which was defeated by the Angevins from France. The Angevins were later defeated in the Battle of Malta by the crown of Aragon. The Maltese noble families gained particular importance after a Royal Charter dated 20th June 1482 from King Alfonso V confirmed the right of the Maltese to excercise local power over the islands.This gave the Maltese Islands a degree of independence, setting up a local government, the Universita' and the Consiglio Popolare, or local Council, which could deliberate local affairs but had no legislative power.
When the Knights of St John arrived, this self-governing power was lost, which caused a great deal of resentment among the the nobles; in fact they sent a representative to protest to Viceroy of Sicily. Since Mdina's fortifications were quite inadequate and the Knights needed to be close to their gallies in harbour, they opted to defuse the situation by making Birgu their base, leaving the nobles to their splendid isolation in Mdina. It was only after the highly destructive earthquake of 1693 that the knights of St John moved in and left their imprint through the remodelling of Mdina.
The Mdina gate was built under the patronage of Grandmaster de Vilhena of the Order of St John in 1724. Mdina's fortifications had been been ignored for a long period of time but after the great 1693 earthquake, Manoel de Vilhena took the opportunity to imprint the Order's image on Mdina, commissioning French Engineer Charles Francois de Mondion to remodel the old city and its defenses.
On the left hand side of the gate in the wall there are the remains of the older drawbridge gate dating to Mdina's Arab age. This gate led to a labyrinthine entrance to the old city: all those who entered had to zig-zag through a narrow passage before entering the citadel, which would allow the defenders to ambush invaders if they managed to penetrate past the gate.
De Redin Bastion rises out of the deep moat beneath the bridge. This bastion system forms part of Malta's fortifications which were among the most advanced of their day as in addition to having their own resident European engineer, the Knights would regularly call to Malta leading European fortifications experts to advise on the strengthening of the fortifications. At the back of the main gate there is a lunette sculpted in high relief shows the three patron saints of the city: Saint. Publius, Saint. Paul and Saint Agatha. There are also the arms of the city and of the Inguanez family. The Inguanez were for many years the Governors of Mdina.
The Vilhena Palace also known as the Magisterial Palace was constructed by Grandmaster de Vilhena in 1722 on the site of the medieval Arab entrance into Mdina which once housed the medieval local government of the Universita'. The design of the building is one of the best works by the Order's French resident engineer, de Mondion and hence, in 1726 this Mdina palace was built in the Parisian Baroque style. the Vilhena Palace also served as a hospital during the 1847 cholera outbreak and continued to serve as a hospital for tuberculosis patients until the early 20th century.
Since 1973 the Palazzo became the National Museum of Natural History, today managed by Heritage Malta. This life and earth sciences museum is the national repository of biological specimens presenting themes such as human evolution, insects, birds and habitats and marine ecosystems.
Opposite this at St. Publiuis Square the Torre dello Standardo signal tower was built in the early 18th century replacing an older 16th century tower. The arms of De Vilhena and the city of Mdina were put on the tower after its remodelling. A signal fire on this tower would send a warning to a chain of towers in the surrounding towns and villages, warning the population that enemy corsairs were sighted approaching Malta.
At Misraħ il-Kunsill there is the Xara Palace, currently a hotel, which dates from thefifteenth century. Adjoining Xara Palace you can witness Herald's Loggia where the Town Herald use to read the proclamations issued by the Universita', that used to manage the island's local affairs in the fifteenth century. Opposite the Xara Palace the facade of the Corte Capitanale, which forms part of the Vilhena Palace looks down on the square. This building used to house the Courts of Justice, its statues of Mars, the God of war, and Justice, reminding the population that the Order would not hesitate to impose order through justice or the sword. Today the Corte Capitanale houses the Local Council of Mdina.
The chapel of St Agatha dates back to 1410 but in 1693 it was also damaged during during the earthquake. The chapel was rebuilt on the design of Lorenzo Gafa and opened in the presence of Grand Master Adrien de Wignacourt in 1695. Commemarative medals were buried in the masonry to mark the event. The nunnery of St Benedict was founded in the fifteenth century in the location of a previous hospital of St. Peter. The monastery has undergone many modifications during the years but the architecture is predominantly Baroque.
The present imposing portal in Triq Villegaignon is a 19th century creation however various artefacts have been unearthed from the gardens of Casa Inguanez, which are largely attributed to the Roman Melite period. The Inguanez are Malta's oldest aristocratic family, parts of the Palazzo dating back to the 14th century. Casa Testaferrata, the residence of the Marquis of St Vincent Ferreri. He was another member of the Maltese nobility who was given this title in 1716 by King Philip V of Spain.
The Banca Giuratale was built in 1730 as the new 'home' of the Universita'. The portal on the top of the doorway is richly decorated with armour, arms and flags while trophy sculptures on each corner of the building are made up of symbols of the Knights' military power.
In the square next to the Banca Giuratale one finds the house used by the chief magistrate. Casa Gourgion stands on the upper left corner of the square, boasting a beautiful ceramic roundel. Next to it a Victorian neo-Gothic house dating to the British period, contrast strikingly with the rest of the buildings. The square is dominated by St. Paul's Cathedral, a baroque twin-belfried cathedral was rebuilt in 1702, after in 1693, the previous Romanesque Cathedral dating back to the 13th century, was badly damaged by a violent earthquake that wiped out much of Sicily. The new cathedral was designed by Lorenzo Gafa, a very well known Maltese architect who designed several churches around the Maltese Islands in Baroque style. This square was created when several streets and houses were cleared to create an open square in front of the cathedral appropriate to the size and splendour of the church.
The Archbishop Palace was constructed after the earthquake of 1693. However, Mdina had been the seat of the Bishop from the 16th century. The French General Vaubois dined here in 1798 as the guest of his conquered enemy. The Cathedral Museum is housed in an 18th century palace built as a diocesan seminary by Bishop Alpheran de Bussan and designed by Andrea belli. The museum collection includes objets d'art, Cathedral archives, archives of the Inquisition and those of the old Universita'.
From the bastions of Bastion Square one can view most of Malta, from Paola to Valletta, Sliema and Mosta with the very visible Rotunda church dome, said to be the third largest in the world. St Paul's Bay and Mtarfa are closest, Mtarfa being the nearest hill to the left which is thought to have been the burial place when Malta formed part of the Roman Empire.
Palazzo Falson dates from 1495 and was build by Admiral Falson. When the knights of St John arrived in Malta in 1530, Grandmaster Isle Adam was received in this house. On the outside of the facade of the building you can observe the beautiful double windows, divided by slender calonettes; they date from the 15th century Mdina Palazzo Falson which was bought by Captain Olof Frederick Gollcher in 1927.
The Carmelite Church and Convent is remembered for the important historical event of 1798. The revolt against the French was started when the French were about to auction the tapestries and other artifacts taken from this Church and the ringing of the Carmelite church bells are known to have signalled the start of the resistance. The present church was built in 1659 on design of Francesco Sammut, however Lorenzo Gafa is known to have been involved. The altar-piece of the 'Annunciation' was produced by Maltese artist Stefano Erradi.
The original Palazzo Santa Sofia was a one storey building, but in 1939 another floor was built imitating late medieval style. The ground floor was mostly used for stores, stables and the kitchen.On the side of Palazzo Santa Sophia in St Sophia Street you can witness a siqifah. The 'siqifah' is an arched passageway tunnelled into massively built ground floors of buildings and leading into the courtyard or 'cortile domorum' area, round which houses were normally built. In this case the 'siqifah' opens into the narrow street thus bisecting the building into two areas.
St Roque Chapel was constructed in 1728 and is sometimes known as the chapel of 'Our Lady of the Light'. St Roque was invoked especially in the times of diseases such as the plague. At that time St Roque's chapel was located near the entrance to the city but it was demolished during Vilhena's replanning of the city and relocated to its present location.
At the corner between Mesquita street and Gatto Murina street stands the the 14th century Gatto-Murina Palace. The double windows together with their scupltured hood moulds can be noticed. Mesquita Square contains also a number of 17th century houses. In this square you can notice that some houses have a Muxrabija.
St. Nicholas Chapel was built in 1550 and was rebuilt to the designs of Lorenzo Gafa in 1692. St Nicholas is a very popular saint in the eastern Orthodox religion and this part of Mdina was frequented by residents of Imdina hailing from Greece who were mostly occupied in humble occupations like garbage collection which was strictly regulated in order to avoid disease in the citadel.
Magazines Street is named because of the storehouses in the street that used to house weapons and ammunition. Once in Magazines street you will notice the 'hole in the wall', which is of recent construction. Through this tunnel you can see the old Valletta-Mdina railroad station built outside Mtarfa in 1890.
Greek or slave's gate as it is known, was also built by Vilhena during the remodelling of Mdina in 1727. It seems that de Mondion did not order the demolition of the old gate but added a new Baroque skin onto it. The gate is called 'Greeks' gate' due to the Greek community that lived in the southwest of the city in the 16th and 17th centuries. St. Paul is commemorated in the inscription on Greek's gate.

O ver the past year CPA2Biz, the exclusive marketing provider of the AICPA, has launched a pair of new initiatives enabling CPAs to build stronger relationships with their clients or employers. Now it's looking ahead to several new Web site enhancements and CPA programs for the coming year.
This news was delivered at the AICPA Spring Council meeting by Erik Asgeirsson, CEO of CPA2Biz. The JofA recently caught up with Asgeirsson, as well as CPA2Biz COO Patrick Bonnaure and several AICPA members, to fill out the picture of the current status of CPA2Biz.
CPA2Biz develops and manages client-focused business solutions programs such as the Paychex Partner Program (for payroll) and the Chase CPA Advantage Program (for banking) to meet the needs of small and midsize public practitioners and CPAs in business and industry. Just 10 months after the November 2003 launch of these initiatives, more than 8,000 CPA firms from 47 states are participating in the Business Solutions Program and more than 1,500 new CPAs are signing up for it each month. With built-in benefits for CPAs and their clients, these programs bring large-firm resources to all firms.
"More than 8,000 clients have been successfully referred by enrolled CPAs," says Asgeirsson, as of the April 2004 Spring Council meeting. Through the Paychex Partner Program, participating CPAs can offer their clients one month of free payroll processing and a six-month satisfaction guarantee. In addition, CPA2Biz and Paychex have put procedures in place to assure the CPA remains the client's main contact at all times.
CPA2Biz also has teamed with Chase to roll out the CPA Advantage Program. This small business banking program offers CPAs a dedicated hot line, direct access to client financial information, a special small business account manager to work with and preferred pricing for the firm and its clients.
CPA2BIZ REACHES NEW MILESTONES
After two years of improving financial performance, CPA2Biz has attained a new milestone. In its most recent fiscal year, CPA2Biz had positive cash flow from operations as well as overall positive net cash flow. This is a result of the marketing and operational investments that have made CPA2Biz a valuable asset to the CPA community.
"CPA2Biz is meeting the needs of AICPA members," according to Mark Zinman, name partner in a local CPA firm in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania. His firm is active in CPA2Biz's Business Solutions Programs. Under the programs, CPA2Biz leverages the voice of the profession to deliver a valuable and unique set of benefits to AICPA members.
"The more we utilize our buying power, the better it will be for all of us—CPAs, firms and especially, these days, clients," Zinman says.
The CPA2Biz Web site now serves as a key resource for over 50% of the CPA profession. More than 200,000 CPAs and financial professionals regularly use CPA2Biz to search for the latest articles, tools and career resources and to access a selection of more than 1,000 professional products. More than 50,000 site searches are conducted on average each month on topics such as COSO, ethics, SAS no. 99 and CPE. CPA2Biz also recently released new Web site enhancements, including a new capability in the online store to show real-time data on the most popular products customers have purchased, allowing AICPA members to quickly see what professional tools their peers are relying on and what new editions have been released.
CPA2Biz also continues to provide the AICPA with sophisticated online and off-line marketing operations to drive AICPA sales in books, periodicals, online resources, conferences and webcasts. Most of the AICPA's direct marketing to members is handled by CPA2Biz.
But at the heart of the CPA2Biz culture, officials say, is a dedication to be driven and directed by member needs, experience and input. Major new product strategies and site changes, for instance, are rolled out only after weeks or months of testing and refinement as "beta" projects with rank-and-file CPAs acting as advisers and testers. "This is a customer-driven process," Asgeirsson says.
CPA Bill Bloom of New York sits on one of those advisory panels. "We're not rubber stamps," he says. "They run ideas for new products or services or partnerships past us. And we give them our opinions and reactions—and I mean our honest opinions and reactions." Feedback from CPA2Biz's customer advisory group informed the recent rollout of the small business banking program.
NEW FEATURES TO COME
In coming months CPA2Biz will be launching a new e-newsletter service and staging a series of online seminars with CPAs and their clients, covering business issues such as strategic planning and trends in financing. These services will be offered to CPAs participating in the business solutions programs and are designed to cement the relationship between the CPA firms and their clients.
For the AICPA, CPA2Biz will be launching tightly focused direct-marketing campaigns in specialty areas of practice, all the while maintaining the production and mass distribution of comprehensive product catalogs. "We want to give members what they need and only when they need it," Asgeirsson says. "CPAs are too busy to sift through a lot of random information. It's our job at CPA2Biz to put together well-organized collateral, the best services from the top providers so our customers are not overwhelmed."
Bruce Meyer, a third-generation CPA in Melville, New York, says: "The companies CPA2Biz deals with are all good, quality companies. I can rely on that."
In Tucson, Arizona, Donna Byers, CPA/PFS, tax manager at Clifton Gunderson, registers for live CPE webcasts through the CPA2Biz site. So far, she's taken online classes in individual fiduciary relationships, the issues involved in net unrealized appreciation and ESOPs. "Excellent," she says about the courses, "and not too expensive."
A rigorous schedule of CPA2Biz major site enhancements and minor patch releases is overseen by Bonnaure. CPA2Biz is scheduled to introduce major new site features in fall 2004, some of which include an updated home page with easy access to all areas of the site, including the online store, news center, career center and more; a new "forgot password" system to make it painless for the user who has forgotten his or her user name or password; the facility to purchase and download Adobe PDFs online; and for AICPA conference goers, a series of new site enhancements to make meetings far easier to register for and attend. In the first phase, due this November, CPA2Biz plans to allow online registration for the add-on pre- and post-conference workshops that attract hundreds of registrants every year.
BUILDING ON SOLID GAINS
CPA Ivan Watson is one of the AICPA members who can attest to the changes of recent years. The Middlesex, New Jersey, sole practitioner uses CPA2Biz often to do last-minute research on the AICPA InfoBytes CPE service before a client meeting. "It helps me brush up on the latest developments," he says. In addition, he remarked on improvements in the Web site's navigation, structure and organization, and visual look and feel.


Given my universal love for food, I aim to communicate recipes from all around the world. There may be times when my Indian background kicks in and I will share my favorite traditional recipes, or take a particular recipe and give it an Indian twist.
Cooking Indian food can be daunting for someone who is newer to cooking or new to Indian cuisine. This is often because of the sheer number of exotic spices or steps listed in a recipe. Please do not let this inhibit you from trying an Indian recipe. Once you master an Indian recipe from one region, you will be able to cook several other dishes from that region as well as muster the courage to experiment recipes from other parts of India.
Here is some information and useful tips that should cheer you on to cook an Indian meal.
I strive to use ingredients that are easily available and most major grocery stores now carry a lot of Indian Spices. There may be a few recipes that have spices that you many not find in the major grocery stores, please do not let that turn you away from trying that recipe. Any sizable town or city in the US usually has an Indian grocery store. This website: http://www.thokalath.com/grocery/ , has an interactive map that lists Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi grocery stores by each state. Just click on the state you are in and find the Indian/Pakistani/ Bangladeshi grocery stores nearest to you. If you do not live near one of these ethnic specialty stores, you can order spices online at Amazon.com or GroceryBabu.com. If both these avenues fail you, please feel free to email me or leave a comment asking for an alternative to the ingredient.
Garlic and Ginger Paste: A lot of Indian recipes call for Garlic paste and/or Indian paste. While these are inexpensive and easy to find, you can easily make your own ginger-garlic paste and refrigerate it in an air-tight container. I have added this recipe at the end of this page.
Holy Trinity of Indian Cuisine: Onions, garlic and ginger.
Non-stick pots and pans: Most Indian dishes start off with sautéing heaps of diced onions on medium heat till they are golden brown. You will require a lot of oil to do this, unless you have non-stick pots and pans. Using non-stick pots and pans ensures a healthier meal and one that cooks faster.
Spice Grinder: Freshly ground spices are always the best form of dried spices. So if you are in the mood for roasting cumin and coriander seeds and then grinding them, you will be well rewarded for your efforts. You can store these in your pantry in air-tight containers and as long as there isn't too much humidity where you live these spices will retain their potency for 6-8 months. I use a good old coffee grinder to grind my spices. Just make it sure you clean the grinder well, unless you want a spiced coffee!
Read the whole recipe before making it: While this essential for all recipes it is extremely pertinent with a cuisine you are not very familiar with.
In a food processor or blender puree together the ginger and garlic.
Add the water if you need it to facilitate the pureeing process.
The above mixture is the freshest and purest form of ginger-garlic paste. If you are not going to consume the whole amount in 2-3 days, add the oil and salt into the mixture. If you store this mixture with the oil and salt in an air tight container it will stay good for 10-14 days.

Есть люди ведущие, а есть ведомые. Те люди которые относятся к ведущим иначе говоря лидеры, готовьтесь к НЕ конструктивной критике и зависти вокруг вас.
Люди критикующие других людей за то, что они чего-то добились в жизни или делают все для того, что дойти до цели... Поднимите свою попу и подойдите к зеркалу ( если ваш зад, конечно, не окончательно прилип к дивану), а чего добились вы?
Не ну серьезно, а чего добились вы? На вашем бы месте я держалась тех кто лидер, он сможет дать вам цель, продвинутся дальше, а потом вы сами будете решать быть вам ведущим или ведомым.
Хватит осуждать других людей за их успехи, ты ничем не хуже их и тоже можешь добиться многого.
И не думай, что все зависит от бюджета, места и людей вокруг тебя.

Content has to be contextual, reason why you must have an understanding of your goal or what you want to achieve.
Contextual talks about the context and scope of your scripts, marketing, tips, values or whatsoever it may be.
Take out your notepad, a sheet of paper, go get a biro.
Just in case you don't have an answer to this question, I want you to think through and answer this question. *What is my goal?
*What do I want to achieve on Instagram?
If you have a business, a brand, a skill or a talent, Instagram is a good place to attract an audience that would listen to you.
If you are not attracting streamlined attention, you're losing a lot of Money, Respect and chance for other brands to use you as their brand ambassador or for an advertisement, or Contract, you never know.

Gossiping is a toxic habit that doesn't do anything good. AT ALL🤷🏽♀ Some people do it for entertainment.

Stop the gossip and replace with uplifting and encouraging words and conversations. You will discover a inner strength of peace within and around you.

Last night, I was looking for my Board of Directors bracelet because I need to send it off for a new diamond to represent my 7th year on the Board of Directors and I couldn't find it because I packed it for my trip in a different jewelry bag.

Now, I can send off my Board bracelet and ironically this month I will earn the requirements to seal my 8th year on the Board of Directors (Board of Directors 2020) and seal in my spot for now 8 years in 8.5 years in business! Thank you for making this possible because without your support, my family and I would be broke and poor!

Is it the path in your mind, to allow the new thoughts and ideas to flow to you. If you are always thinking about things and doing this or that, have you allowed the space for new thoughts.
A couple of weeks ago I listened to a podcast that spoke about doing a brain data dump. A what?
A brain data dump, ok. I Had all these thoughts for something I am creating. The time is not allowing it to materialize just yet.
So I did the data dump on the ipad and WOW. I wrote down 59 points. And then crashed for the night.
I awoke refreshed and unburdened. Like a fresh slate now was in my mind. Now is not the time is to organize and review those 59 thoughts and expand upon them. The space is their for more, YES -more thoughts to enter. .
Interesting enough I have a mentor that data dumps her thoughts each night so she can rest.
Have you tried this technique yet, perhaps you dump them another way.

Uber Unveils New Logo... Again
Brendan Dorsey
Brendan Dorsey is an Associate News Editor at TPG who covers nearly everything for TPG including aviation, credit cards, points, miles, ride-hailing services and more. He previously worked for TIME.
Ride-sharing giant Uber was only established in 2009, but it's changed its logo almost as many times as years it's been in business.
After a year of trying to improve its image under new CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber unveiled a new logo on Wednesday. You'll see the logo after updating the Uber app on your smart phone.
The logo, which is simply the company's name in white font against a black background, replaces the image of square embedded in a circle. That logo was in use from February 2016 until now, and before that it used a stylized "U" that was introduced in 2012. Before that, it changed its logo multiple times while it still referred to itself as Uber Cab.
As the company explains, it redesigned its logo because as it expands into products outside of cars like Scooters, bikes and even air transport, it wants to make sure its branding represents all of those options.
"As we expand our reach into our other markets and modalities, it's super important that it's very clear that when you're getting into an Uber car or on an Uber scooter, you know that is an Uber product," Peter Markatos, Uber's executive director of brand told Adweek. "We weren't achieving that with our current system."
Uber's internal research team found that most consumers didn't associate the old symbol with Uber. Drivers would even sometimes turn around a decal in their car to show the word "Uber" instead of using the old logo.
"It doesn't make sense to build more equity into something that people don't understand," Markatos said.
The branding team actually created it's own typeface, called Uber Move, which was inspired by other fonts like the one used by the London Underground, and Highway Gothic, which is used on American road signs.
The company also introduced a new mission statement: "We ignite opportunity by setting the world in motion," which it changed from: "Make transportation as reliable as running water, everywhere, for everyone."
The change in mission statement makes sense, especially after a TPG investigation showed there's a real issue with reliability — Uber drivers have been forcing riders to cancel their rides and pay a fee if the driver isn't happy with the rider's destination.
The app redesign prominently features bright blue, which Uber says is a "safety color." Uber's put an increased focus on security, and last week, it revealed a slew of new safety features for both riders and drivers. It wants the redesign to help riders "see" and "know" Uber better.
"Making sure that when an Uber shows up, then that's very clear," said Markatos. "This has implications when it comes to safety, when it comes to accessibility, so we took this very seriously."

Mar 3, 2019 News Hour Correspondent -
Is Qwerty keyboard coming back to phones?
An Android phone that slides open to reveal a physical qwerty keyboard inside has launched at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
The F(x)tec Pro1 phone also has a bespoke shutter button on the side to click when taking photos, reports BBC.
The London start-up behind it said it wanted to "return the keyboard" to consumers.
Other handsets with keyboards built in, from brands such as BlackBerry Mobile and Swiss firm Punkt, were also on show.
"A lot of consumer tech still has buttons even though the tech is there to get rid of them," said Adrian Li Mow Ching, founder of F(x)tec.
"Haptic feedback never gives the same satisfaction as pressing a physical button."
He said that the folding handsets unveiled by phone giants Huawei and Samsung demonstrated that "people want more than the single slab".
The handset I tried was a prototype, but it ran pretty smoothly. It was chunkier than a standard smartphone and a little heavier.
While I cannot deny that the sliding keyboard was fun to open, I did fear for the hinge and the plastic stand on which the screen sits at an angle.
The keys did take a little getting used to if you are more familiar with a touchscreen pad, but I found I made fewer typos when writing.
The Pro1 will go on sale in July for £649, or $649 in the United States.
Lianchen Chen, who designed the device, describes himself as a BlackBerry fan. However, his device was inspired by a prototype from Nokia he was given in 2010, which was never released to the public.
The Nokia 950 had a slide-out keyboard hidden beneath the screen but was only ever given to app developers. Mr Chen said he used it until 2015.
The Pro1 features a full touchscreen in addition to its physical keyboard, an approach shared by BlackBerry Mobile's Key2.
Punkt's MP02 phone is also covered in buttons, but it has limited functionality compared to modern smartphones. It is designed to be a so-called companion phone rather than a primary device.
Punkt chief executive Petter Neby said the device would have been 75% cheaper to manufacture if it had just a touchscreen rather than physical keys. But he said physical keys gave people a more "optimal" experience.
"We press keys and buttons all the time and expect something to happen," he told reporters.
"The touchscreen is a convenience, it's not optimal for a call to action."
Both F(x)tec and Punkt deny that the hardware required for a physical keyboard limits the life of their devices.
Mr Neby says he still uses a 10-year-old BlackBerry with physical keys as his primary phone and has experienced no issues with it.
François Mahieu, global managing director for BlackBerry Mobile, told the BBC that people "value the productivity" offered with a physical keyboard experience.
"Many of our customers tell us there is a level of precision when typing on a keyboard that cannot be matched with a full touch experience," he said.
He said physical keyboards remained "relevant" and that BlackBerry devices "fill a distinct role in our device portfolio".
UK start-up Planet Computers is another company producing Android phones with physical keyboards. In 2018, it successfully crowd-funded a modernised "digital assistant" device, and is now working on a follow-up phone.
However, there is no indication that the broader mobile phone industry is planning a physical keyboard comeback.
"I am not sure if this is nostalgia or trying to find a way in the market serving those groups that the big guns have no interest in serving," said analyst Carolina Milanesi from the consultancy Creative Strategies.
"I think this is really more what we see in a market where competing with the top players requires not just different hardware but a different approach to the market."
Grameenphone brings in the iPhone 11 series in Bangladesh


This was simple, but Microsoft is always changing their products. Office is so widely used throughout the building, yet we have users on 2003, 2007, and now 2010. For the newest version, I had trouble finding the double spacing options, but learned that it was under Home, Paragraph. More info here.

The lake is named after the village of Picholi nearby, and was created in AD 1362. Pretty as lake Pichola is, it is also home to four islands which consist of palaces and monuments constructed by the Mewar dynasty in Udaipur. The picturesque lake has the backdrop of the Aravalli Hills, which make it so much more beautiful spot. Here's a quick look at some of the most interesting things about Lake Pichola.
City Palace, Udaipur
Udaipur's City Palace is an example of the splendour that the rulers of Mewar enjoyed centuries ago, and it still appears to be just as majestic. It is located on the eastern banks of Pichola lake. The palace is a fusion of Rajasthani, European, Chinese and Mughal architecture, making it one of the most alluring factors of Udaipur. The palace complex houses monuments like the Monsoon Palace, Lake Palace, Jagdish Temple, Jag Mandir, and Neemach Mata temple, and it is surrounded by the Aravalli Mountains, giving it a gorgeous background.

Shilpgram, Udaipur
Udaipur's traditional Rajasthani culture with a dash of Mughal and European architecture make it a city full of a vibrant ethos.

The lifestyle of the tribal people of Rajasthan can be witnessed at Shilpgram, the rural complex of arts and crafts in Udaipur. Shilpgram is situated in the western part of Udaipur, under the beautiful backdrop of the Aravalli Hills and lush greenery. Not only is Shilpgram considered a living museum of traditional arts and crafts, it also holds special workshops and tutoring sessions for the young and old so that the culture of Rajasthan spreads far and wide.

is there any recommended way of synchronizing sysroot if sysroot is located on Ubuntu machine in specific folder? In standard way, toolchain sysroot is downloaded from target device, e.g. raspberry pi. But in our case, necessary files are not available on target device (it's flash is quite small), but it's available on our Ubuntu build server in specific folders, not in default folders. This looks to be an issue as Synchronize sysroot feature uses default location of sysroot folders. Sysroot we would like to download / synchronize is generated by Yocto. Currently, we download sysroot manually from Ubuntu build server and then overwrite sysroot folder on Windows machine (e.g. C:\SysGCC\raspberry\arm-linux-gnueabihf\sysroot).
AFAIK windows NTFS doesn't support case sensitivity in file names, while ext4 on Ubuntu does.
The automatic sysroot synchronization indeed can only download the files from the root of the target filesystem. The easiest way to work around it would be to synchronize the files manually using SmarTTY, or add custom project shortcuts (requires Custom edition or higher) for downloading the arbitrary directories from arbitrary machines into the toolchain's sysroot. Once defined as a custom shortcut, you will be able to trigger synchronization via the Project menu.
Regarding the case sensitivity, such files will indeed override each other on the Windows side. You can try enabling the case-sensitive mode for a specific NTFS folder as described here, but this may not be handled correctly by the toolchain or Visual Studio itself. Generally, unless you are building custom kernels, this should not be a problem as this type of file name collisions is rare. If it does interfere with your projects, please consider creating an Advanced CMake-based project configured to directly access the remote filesystem via SSH. This mode will properly handle case-sensitive file names, although you would need a Linux machine to build the code.

Q: Woocommerce Wishlist Add to Cart also Adds to Wishlist I am trying to build a WooCommerce site and added WooCommerce wishlist plugin free version and it works as it should. No problems.
What I would like to achieve is when a customer adds a product to cart, it also adds that product to wishlist if it is not already there.
Is it possible to achieve the above by using hooks?
Here is what I have added in my functions file:
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'trigger_for_ajax_add_to_cart' );
function trigger_for_ajax_add_to_cart() {
    ?> <script type="text/javascript">
           (function($){
               $('body').on( 'added_to_cart', function(){
               // code goes in here
               });
           })(jQuery);
        </script>
<?php } ?>

Also trying several javascript code from the wishlist plugin files but to no avail.

Yesterday was a disappointing Tuesday. The popular online video rental company Netflix, released a statement where they discussed the upcoming membership price increase and the new structuring of their service. Unfortunately it was bound to happen. Many companies will introduce a product at a low price to lock in costumers. Then, once the company feels they have a large enough base, they'll get greedy and raise their membership prices. This is the second time in less than a year that Netflix has raised the prices for a membership. The company will be creating separate plans for their streaming and mail services. By separating these services Netflix plans on charging separate membership fees for each, both priced at $7.99 with a combo package available for $15.99.
This may seem a bit drastic but I feel that these are the types of factors that lead people to embrace the piracy of films. I believe that piracy is wrong and it only hurts the industry but when you look at it from the perspective of the average person, why spend the ever increasing amounts of money when you can get films online for free. The combination of Internet piracy and Netflix just about ran every video rental company to bankruptcy. The popular video rental companies Hollywood Video and Blockbuster closed thousands of stores and are focusing on Internet based rental services. In contrast, Netflix has expanded their service to include streaming to many devices and is constantly increasing their online catalog. Without the strong demand from outside competition, it's safe to say Netflix has a hold on the video rental industry.
Out of my group of close friends, ALL of us currently have a Netflix membership. With Netflix being as popular as it is, it makes no sense for them to raise their prices. This price increase is simply a scheme for Netflix to gain even higher quarterly profits and the sad thing is that there is nothing we can do about it. I've read around the Internet and have seen people calling for the boycotting of Netflix. Although this is a good idea, it simply will not work. The price increase may be drastic but is not significant enough for people to take the time to organize a formal boycott. The fact of the matter is, people may complain but they will shell out the extra few dollars to keep a service that they love.
How do you feel about the Netflix price increases? Join the discussion and leave a comment below.

The present investigation deals with the problem of thermoelastic beam in the modified couple stress theory due to thermal source. The governing equations of motion for the modified couple stress theory and heat conduction equation for coupled thermoelasticity are investigated to model the vibrations in a homogeneous isotropic thin beam in a closed form by applying the Euler Bernoulli beam theory. The Laplace transform technique is used to solve the problem. The lateral deflection, thermal moment, axial stress average due to normal heat flux in the beam are derived and computed numerically. The resulting quantities are depicted graphically for a specific model. A particular case is also introduced.

For most of the twentieth century, the music of Cécile Chaminade was overlooked or dismissed by those who persisted in maintaining an elitism in music. It was easier to play than say, Liszt. It not only was widely published, but it sold well in both Europe and America. Amateurs performed it regularly. It was written by a woman. However, hearing some of her piano music played by Peter Jacobs, the impression is that it isn't very different from the shorter works of Schumann, Mendelssohn, Grieg, or many other more famous composers.

Chaminade's most popular composition, Automne, has a main theme that will be familiar to most people, and those who know and love the piece will surely be as readily enraptured by its Op.

Roger Samson, REAP-Canada
Environment, Frontier Centre, Interview, Rural February 17, 2006
Frontier Centre: Is the use of grass pellets as a heating fuel a new idea or old one that is coming back into vogue?
Roger Samson: Historically on the Prairies there was some grass used for heating, I think in tepees and things like that. But basically we are changing the fuel-supply system so that we have a much more convenient fuel by densifying grasses. It is an old idea to use plants for energy, but taking new forms.
FC: You say that switchgrass is one of the best candidates among natural Prairie grasses for conversion into fuel. Why?
RS: Switchgrass is a C4 perennial species, which means it is drought-tolerant and uses water very efficiently. It converts solar radiation into plant matter in a very efficient way, and it is easy to grow and very well adapted to the province where it originated.
FC: Are people manufacturing pellets yet?
RS: In Canada right now, we see that the crop-milling residue industry is the one that is starting up first, because these materials are concentrated, very low in cost and relatively easy to burn. We think that this industry is soon going to be limited in terms of its fuel supply and that grasses will follow in about a year or two.
FC: Don't new industries encounter a chicken-and-egg problem? Don't people have to start using pelletized bio fuels before mass production makes sense? How can the price be favourable enough without that to get the industry off the ground?
RS: We already are producing and using about 1.2 million tonnes of pellets in North America, so we have an existing infrastructure we can work into. Combustion appliances now are being developed that can use not only wood pellets, but grains and densified grasses and crop-milling residues. So we really don't have a problem in terms of the infrastructure to develop the industry.
FC: Are you sure that this industry is viable without government subsidies?
RS: As long as fossil-fuel prices stay where they are, this industry is going to become a major one for Canada, without the need for subsidies.
FC: Compared to burning natural gas, what is the advantage?
RS: We are looking at about a twenty-five percent reduction in heating costs over natural gas, which is currently around eleven or twelve dollars a gigajoule. The advantage also is in greenhouse gases. Every tonne of biomass we use replaces 1.2 tonnes of CO² from natural-gas combustion.
FC: Why does ethanol need subsidies. but pelletized biofuels don't?
RS: The reason grain ethanol needs subsidies is that its production is not decoupled from the fossil fuel uses. In other words, farmers need a lot of fossil fuels to grow the grains used to make ethanol, and then we need a lot of fossil fuels to build and run the those huge facilities for the conversion process. In the case of direct combustion, we bypass these large facilities and have a much better fuel cycle because we are spending less energy in the conversion process and losing less energy from the feedstock.
FC: What are the macro-ecological advantages? How much fossil fuel can be retired from use if palletized grasses take off?
RS: This industry would help landscape ecology by reducing erosion problems and encouraging biodiversity compared to conventional land use. Here in Manitoba, ten million tonnes of biomass could be produced within the next fifteen years, and that would replace the equivalent of thirty million barrels of oil. In North America we could do up to five hundred million tonnes, replacing 1.5 billion barrels.
FC: What is that per day?
RS: I think that works out to about five percent of the world's oil supply, around 4 million barrels a day.
FC: Can you briefly explain how credits for greenhouse gas emissions would help this as well?
RS: At the farm level, farmers could get credits for putting their annual crop land into these perennial grasses. You get carbon sequestered in the root systems of these grasses and in the standing biomass, and the users of these fuels would be able to get carbon credits because they are displacing coal and natural gas and heating oil applications. The credits in turn would enable them to offer higher prices to the fuel producers, the farmers.
FC: Assuming Kyoto is a "no go," does this still work?
RS: It works right now in Ontario and Québec, where we are starting an industry where we have got twenty-five to fifty percent fuel savings without any carbon credits. If we want to replace coal, we are going to need carbon credits. Given the understanding we have about climate change, we are going to need some type of trading mechanism to be able to change the economy over to one based on green fuel.
FC: What about a situation where the government's deliberate policy is to keep the price of electricity exceedingly cheap?
RS: When you have cheap electricity prices, people are going to use a high-grade energy form like electricity in applications where it is really not required. The higher the price for this high-quality energy form, the more incentive there is for people to use biomass, for example, or geothermal systems, in applications where they can use low-quality heat.
FC: So you would be in favour of raising electricity prices to market values in Manitoba?
RS: I think one thing that Manitoba could do is develop a two-tier system, where they have a base consumption for the household that would be at a modest price and then create a higher price on the second part of the bill that would significantly affect heat-related energy applications. This would provide more revenue for the province and more incentive to switch to other fuels.
FC: You are particularly keen on Manitoba as a location for the use of biomass for heating. Why?
RS: Manitoba is one of the coldest regions in North America, and has the ability to grow abundant volumes of grasses. Manitoba has a strong industry evolving around biomass energy combustion, and no indigenous fossil-fuel resources. That combination gives the district an ideal opportunity to develop bioheat.
FC: You mentioned that the spread for the farmer between the cost of production and what it is worth on the marketplace comes to $140 a tonne. How is that calculated?
RS: If a farmer grows three tonnes of biomass per acre, for example, and has it pelletized, that biomass replaces the equivalent of nine barrels of oil. A barrel of oil is worth (US) $67 today, and when heating oil is delivered to a household it is even more expensive than a barrel of oil in the open market. When you multiply all that through, those tonnes of grass could be worth a lot of money in terms of a value-added market if we could use them in heating applications.
FC: Some describe the burning systems as the "Achilles heel" for grass pellets. Have those problems been solved?
RS: Yes. Necessity is the mother of invention, and what has happened is that combustion equipment has really advanced in terms of manufacturers' understanding about how to deal with trickier fuels that are high in potassium and chlorine that historically have clogged burners. Combustion improvements have been significant in the past five to seven years.
FC: How does the gasifier work?
RS: Gasification is really a two-stage combustion process, where the energy is released from the biomass through pyrolysis, and the gases then are subjected to secondary combustion, where you get hot burning of those released gases.
FC: How much would installation of a burning system cost the average home owner?
RS: The system that I have in my house is around $4,000, and that is for heating a 1400-square-foot house. If you went to a bigger system, like triple the heat requirement of my house, it would cost you about six thousand dollars for a boiler system.
FC: The idea that you can passively harvest solar energy with grass seems deceptively simple. In your view, what makes the process efficient?
RS: In terms of management, the system is really of benign design. When we look at the Prairies as a model for our energy-production system, these perennial C4 grasses are naturally really efficient. We just need to work with nature and enhance the process of solar-radiation collection with these grasses.
FC: How many units of energy are we putting into the process and how much are we getting out?
RS: For every unit of fossil-fuel energy used for growing the grass and delivering it to a pelletizing facility, for example, we have a multiplier of twenty-three units of solar radiation, about a twenty-three to one ratio of energy output to energy input.
FC: How does that compare to ethanol?
RS: With annual grains, the output-to-input ratio for grain ethanol production would be about four-and-a-half to one, compared to 23:1 for switchgrass. So growing perennial grasses for combustion is about five times more efficient from the start. Then you have the process of converting grains into an alcohol-fuel form like ethanol, which is very energy-intensive. The energy balance ends up at about 1.5 to 1.
FC: So from a "smart green" perspective, it's much more productive to concentrate on pelletized biofuels than on ethanol?
RS: Yes. A strategy that concentrated on pelletized biomass for thermal heat would produce about seven times more green energy to replace fossil fuels than a liquid-fuel strategy that creates ethanol from annual grains for powering vehicles.
FC: Essentially without subsidies?
RS: That's right. The ethanol industry requires heavy subsidies because it is very energy-intensive, and it is not decoupled from fossil fuels. With the grass pellet biofuel cycle, we are largely decoupled from fossil-energy requirements.
FC: Were you surprised that George Bush recently mentioned switchgrass as an option for the energy future of the United States?
RS: It was a great thing that he mentioned it. It's too bad he didn't do it six years earlier. The Americans are in a very difficult situation in terms of their energy supply. They should restore funding to the programs that were developing switchgrass as a biofuel crop six or seven years ago, before the Bush administration came in.
FC: One of the most convincing arguments that you make relates to the use of marginal farm land for growing fuel. Can you restate that economic case?
RS: The worst poverty in rural Canada is in the marginal farming areas where farmers have very low opportunity costs for that land. Those are the areas that are being depopulated. This is a brand-new energy-supply system that is going to bring prosperity to those areas and strengthen across-the-board commodity prices for all farm crops because of a demand enhancement for agricultural production.
FC: You have been proselytizing about the biofuel advantage for about fifteen years. Did it take high fossil fuel prices to open the door or did these systems always make sense?
RS: There have really been two barriers. One has been the technology barrier, which has largely been solved. The second has been the cheap cost of fossil fuels and that is no longer an issue. We really have no technical or economic barriers in terms of displacing fossil fuels, and with carbon-credit systems we have another economic incentive to make this industry even more affordable and prosperous.
FC: What will this industry look like in twenty years? Do you think it will be well established?
RS: If the climate crisis turns into a serious problem—and it looks like it may—this industry could take off a lot faster than anyone could project.

Già generale dell'Esercito imperiale russo, fu uno dei principali leader militari dell'Armata Bianca durante la guerra civile, quando fu contemporaneamente al comando delle Forze armate della Russia meridionale e dell'Armata dei Volontari.

Biografia
Denikin nacque in terra oggi polacca; studiò all'Accademia militare di Kiev e combatté nella guerra russo-giapponese del 1905. Allo scoppio della prima guerra mondiale ebbe il comando del distretto militare di Kiev. Nel 1916 gli fu affidato un ruolo operativo e condusse perciò le sue truppe fino in Romania, nell'ultima campagna vittoriosa per la Russia: l'offensiva Brusilov.

Dopo la Rivoluzione di febbraio e la caduta dello zar appoggiò il tentativo di colpo di Stato del comandante Lavr Georgievič Kornilov, ma venne arrestato e incarcerato. In seguito alla rivoluzione d'ottobre Denikin e Kornilov fuggirono a Novočerkassk, nel sud della Russia, e formarono un esercito di volontari per combattere i bolscevichi.

Nell'aprile 1918 Kornilov venne ucciso nei pressi di Ekaterinodar (odierna Krasnodar) e Denikin assunse il comando degli anti-rivoluzionari, ma venne sconfitto nell'ottobre dell'anno seguente a Orël, 400 km a sud di Mosca. In seguito alla sconfitta Denikin si recò in esilio in Francia, da dove continuò ad opporsi al regime sovietico. In seguito allo scoppio della seconda guerra mondiale Denikin fu costretto a lasciare Parigi occupata dai nazisti, ma venne presto catturato.

Dopo la fine della guerra, nel 1945, Denikin emigrò negli Stati Uniti d'America, a New York. Morì mentre si trovava in vacanza nei pressi di Ann Arbor, Michigan. Fu sepolto con gli onori militari a Detroit e successivamente trasferito nel cimitero di San Vladimiro di Jackson, New Jersey.
