Celebrating 43 Years in the Electrical Industry
City Electric Supply Nashville North District Manager Linda Mai celebrates over four decades of accomplishments in what is perceived to be a male-dominated industry.
NASHVILLE, TN – In high school, City Electric Supply Nashville North District Manager Linda Mai took classes that would send her on a path to become a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), but she decided to follow her passion for the electrical industry instead. The famous saying, "believe you can and you're halfway there" is the perfect depiction of the mindset Mai had when she embarked on her new career path in the electrical industry over 40 years ago.
"She's a hard-working, humble person. She's not just a role model for women in the industry — she's a role model for everyone at every level of this business," said CES Co-Chief Operating Officer John Gray.
Earning that type of recognition from a COO and the amount of success she's achieved thus far in her career has been no walk in the park. She's had to work hard and overcome obstacles, and it all began just a few days into her first job at an electrical supply company when a male coworker said, "I don't know why you're here." He wondered what her place as a woman could possibly be in the male-dominated field of electrical supplies.
As Mai looks back on that moment, she claims it only increased her desire for success and energized her to continue on her career path. "Once he said that, it only pushed me. I said, 'I'm fixing to show you,'" said Mai.
And that's exactly what she did. Mai took every opportunity presented to her to learn and grow in the industry."I went to every class offered," said Mai. "I could build switch gears he didn't even know existed. By the time I left, he'd grown to respect me."
In 1981, Mai reached a major milestone in her career by becoming the first female Branch Manager for an independent electrical distributor. And in 2010, she became a Regional Manager. "I owe a lot to my father," said Mai, "who taught us to always give 110% to our jobs and to everything we do in our lives."
Mai's drive and skill captured the attention of CES Co-Chief Operating Officer John Gray, who spent five years trying to convince her to join the City Electric Supply Team. "I first met Linda in 2008 and was so convinced she was the right person to open our Clarksville branch that when she turned me down, I changed plans and decided not to open Clarksville until I could convince her to join us," said Gray.
"I just didn't know if I wanted to change. I was scared to try something different," explained Mai. "But I eventually decided to move to CES because I'm an independent person, and at CES, your branch is your branch. They give you the opportunity to take care of your store the way you need to take care of it."
And while she didn't know it then, that position turned into a 10-year career with the company and counting. Mai helped grow sales, which are expected to be about five times higher this year than when she first started, and was promoted to her current position as Nashville North District Manager. And she couldn't be happier with what she's achieved at City Electric Supply.
"I like going to work every day and learning new things, meeting people, helping people," said Mai. "I like the challenge of trying to figure out how to be the best branch we can be. I like helping people and being able to put a job together. It feels good getting that done for customers."
"As busy and successful as that branch is, her focus is taking care of her customers," said Regional Manager Stephen Baker. "She makes them feel like they're coming into a place they want to be every morning."
The passion for the electrical industry runs deep in Mai's family. Not only did she marry an electrician, but she has a nephew, Michael Mai, and a niece, Mary Wallace, who both work for City Electric Supply as well.
When asked about her advice for individuals interested in getting into the industry, Mai said, "Always give it your best. Learn everything you can. Set goals and chase after them with everything you've got."
Her next goal? To open more branches and increase business by 50% in the next five years. No matter what happens in the next five years, there's one guarantee — Linda Mai is going to give 110%.
City Electric Supply (CES) is a family-owned electrical wholesale distributor headquartered in Dallas, Texas.

"To get to the gym—when you already don't like yourself—is really hard. So I had to make it fun. I started wearing cute outfits and putting on a little bit of makeup. And as vain as it sounds, it really helped me because eventually I stopped hating the way I looked," Kelly Osbourne told Shape.
"I don't look at exercise as a chore. I look at it as something I get to do. I am grateful that I can move my body in that way," Cameron Diaz remarked to USA Today.

Dr. Gerald S. Komarnicky has been with the Downtown Vancouver Optometry Clinic since 1985. Originally from Sarnia Ontario, Dr. Komarnicky graduated from Pacific University in Oregon with undergraduate degrees in Physics (1981) and Visual Science (1983) before getting his degree in Optometry (1985).
He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry (2000) and a member of the International Society for Clinical Electrophysiology of Vision – ISCEVS – (2015). Dr. Komarnicky has participated in five FDA studies, seven clinical studies and is the author of fourteen papers. He continues to be a contributing editor to a peer reviewed journal. Dr. Komarnicky was one of the early lecturers in Canada and the USA teaching both optometrists and ophthalmologists how to manage pre and post operative laser eye surgery patients. He was the only Canadian sitting with the twelve person American Society of Eye Care Specialists – a think tank of vision specialists from 2002 to 2017.
He has served two terms on council for the BC Association of Optometrists and Chaired the Greater Vancouver Optometrist's Society. After serving a term on the Board of Examiners in Optometry he, in his second term, was the last Chair of the Board and then the first Chair of the College of Optometrists. Dr. Komarnicky played a leading role in repealing the Optometry Act, editing and finalizing the Bylaws of the profession and writing the Optometrist's Regulations with the Ministry of Health thereby bringing optometry under the Health Professions Act.
As Chair of the Pharmaceutical Advisory Committee Dr. Komarnicky was the co-negotiator with the Legislative Branch of the Ministry of Health to define optometry's scope of practice and each of the topical pharmaceuticals that optometrists are authorized to prescribe. He was the sole negotiator to define which anti-glaucoma agents an optometrist could prescribe and author of the Standards, Limits and Conditions of practice for Registrants of the College. His greatest clinical strengths are in communication and problem solving.

Q: Concatenating 2 inputted lists in Haskell I'm trying to combine 2 lists from input but I am getting an error every time.
Here is my code:
myAppend :: [a] -> [a] -> [a]
myAppend a b = zipWith (+) a b

Getting this error:
"No instance for (Num a) arising from a use of '+'"
I was given this solution but it doesn't really make sense to me
myAppend :: [a] -> [a] -> [a]
myAppend [] xs = xs
myAppend (y:ys) xs = y:(myAppend ys xs)

I don't really understand the second and third line.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

A: Your myAppend does not concatenate two lists, it aims to sum elementwise the two lists, so myAppend [1,4,2,5] [1,3,0,2] will produce [2,7,2,7]. It will require a Num a constraint, since it can only work if the elements of the lists are Numbers:
myAppend :: Num a => [a] -> [a] -> [a]
myAppend a b = zipWith (+) a b
As for the solution here it uses recursion. Lists in Haskell are like linked lists: you have a an empty list ("nil") which is represented by the [] data constructor, and a node ("cons") which is represented with (x:xs) where x points to the first item, and xs points to the list of remaining elements. So [1,4,2,5] is short for (1:(4:(2:(5:[])))).
If we want to append [1,4] and [2,5] we thus want to produce a list (1:(4:(2:(5:[])))) out of (1:(4:[])) and (2:(5:[])). This means we create a linked list with all the elements of the first list, but instead of pointing to the empty list [], we let it point to the second list for the remaining elements. We do this through recursion:
myAppend (y:ys) xs = y : myAppend ys xs

will match if the first list unifies with the (y:ys) pattern. In that case we thus produce a list with y as first element, and the result of myAppend ys xs as as list of remaining elements ("tail"). Eventually we will thus call myAppend ys xs with the empty list [] as first item. In that case, we thus return the second list instead of the empty list, to append the second list to it.
We thus make calls that look like:
   myAppend [1, 4]     [2, 5]
=  myAppend (1:(4:[])) (2:(5:[]))
-> 1 : (myAppend (4:[]) (2:(5:[])))
-> 1 : (4 : (myAppend [] (2:(5:[]))))
-> 1 : (4 : (2:(5:[]))
=  [1, 4, 2, 5]

Un catálogo de Wildenstein es un catálogo razonado editado por el Instituto Wildenstein, o anteriormente por la familia Wildenstein, una saga de marchantes y críticos de arte franceses. Sus catálogos razonados son las obras de referencia para las obras de arte de determinados pintores franceses.

Historia
El alsaciano Nathal Wildesntein (1851-1934) se instaló en París como marchante de arte. Su hijo Georges Wildenstein (1892-1963) como crítico de arte interesado en la investigación hizo unos primeros catálogos razonados de pintores y escultores del siglo XVIII, pero se interesó sobre todo por los pintores impresionistas, posimpresionistas y finalmente de Picasso.

Daniel Wildenstein (1917-2001) acabó póstumamente el catálogo razonado sobre Paul Gauguin hecho bajo la dirección de su padre, y años después hizo una revisión y ampliación parcial. Igualmente, impulsó la reedición y puesta al día de los catálogos razonados y alentó su publicación, pero su obra más destacada es el catálogo en cinco volúmenes de las pinturas y dibujos de Claude Monet. Creó la Fundación Wildenstein (1970), después Instituto Wildenstein (1990), como entidad sin ánimo de lucro dedicada a la investigación artística y la promoción del arte francés. Una de sus actividades es la publicación de catálogos razonados.

Alec Wildenstein (1940-2008), hijo de Daniel, es el autor del catálogo razonado de Odilon Redon. Actualmente preside el instituto su hermano Guy Wildenstein (1945 -), autor del catálogo razonado de Albert Marquet.

Since it is still before midnight Pacific Time, I'd like to take the chance to wish everyone a "howly Wolfenoot".
"My son has invented a holiday called Wolfenoot.
A holiday to the spirit of wolves that celebrates people who are kind to dogs? I can 100% get behind this. So we will be celebrating Wolfenoot. It's on the 23rd November if anyone else is moved to celebrate it. ;) If you do, please post pics, so he can see how his idea has spread.
If you're posting publicly about it, use #wolfenoot."

More details about a new employment site scheme planned for Braintree which aims to create more than 2,000 jobs have been revealed.
Braintree District Council purchased a 65 acre site at Great Notley Country Park in January in order to create Horizon 120, a business and innovation park, as it tries to attract new firms into the district and offer residents more opportunities for high calibre jobs and training.
The council says the park is already attracting interest from a number of sectors including professional services, research, digital and development sectors and advanced manufacturing. It is exploring options to include staff facilities such as gyms, retail, restaurant and childcare provision, and a hotel is also being considered.
The council's cabinet is due to discuss the proposals at a meeting on Monday, February 11.
Cabinet member for economic development Tom Cunningham said it had attracted "huge" interest.
"Horizon 120 offers an opportunity for businesses to secure well connected, state of the art, bespoke new premises within a quality environment, making it the place to do business now and in the future," he said.


A full-time PostDoc position is available at the Neural Dynamics of Visual Cognition Lab of Radek Cichy at Freie Universität Berlin, Germany. Appointment is for 3 years. The position is funded by the German Research Foundation and is carried out in collaboration with the lab of Prof. Obermayer (Technical University Berlin).Preferred starting date is 1st of July 2019 (flexible, earlier preferred).The project investigates the neural basis of visual decision making in the human brain for real-world scene stimuli. For this it will use a variety of methods: (i) neuroimaging methods fMRI (3T) and MEG/EEG to resolve visual information flow in space and time, (ii) computational modelling (deep neural networks), and (iii) behavioural assessment.Analysis of data will be carried out using multivariate analysis techniques, in particular decoding and representational similarity analysis.
We seek a highly qualified PostDoc with a doctorate in a relevant field (e.g., psychology, neuroscience, computer vision, cognitive science, …) and shared interests in the research topic described above. The researcher should have extensive research with either EEG/MEG or fMRI methodology or both, as well as very good programming skills (matlab or python).
Interested candidates should send a CV, a brief statement of research interests and the names and contact details of two academic references to rmcichy@gmail.com until February 28th 2019, but later applications will be considered until the position is filled.
We propose a post-doctoral position in the field of remote sensing and machine learning. The research project will focus on Change Detection and Semantic Classification for Multimodal SAR / Optical Data Time Series. Objectives are to develop methods for fast and massive change detection, able to lead to the creation of multimodal learning datasets, and to design neural networks fo change detection and semantic classification in this context.
This is a fully-funded 18-21 month position. It will be held between CnamParistech (Michel Crucianu, Mihai Datcu) and ONERA (Èlise Koeniguer, Bertrand Le Saux), in Paris, France.
NO NEED to reapply if you already did!
A full-time PostDoc position will be available in the Scene Grammar Lab of Melissa Vo at the Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany.
Initial appointment will be for *three (!) years with the option to renew up to 6 years.
The lab's core research areas include top-down guidance in scene search, neural representation and development of scene knowledge, as well as action-perception interactions in real-world scenarios. This is the complicated way of saying that we really LIKE SCENES and all that comes with it! We use a variety of methods, including psychophysics, stationary, real-world and VR eye-tracking, as well as EEG. Most importantly, you would be joining a super enthusiastic, fun and warm-hearted team of great minds and personalities here in the lab.
We are seeking a highly qualified PostDoc with a doctorate in a relevant field (e.g., Psychology, Neuroscience, Computer Vision, Cognitive Science, …) and shared interests in the core research areas described above. The researcher should ideally have extensive experience with eye tracking and/or EEG/MEG methodology and/or computational modeling; experience with developmental studies is also welcome but not required.
Since this is a University position, it comes with 4SWS of teaching BSc/MSc courses, which at the Goethe University translates to teaching 4 (identical) seminars to 4 different groups of BSc students *only during the summer semester (= easy), or by offering more individualised courses to either BSc or MSc (= interesting); or a mixture of both (= FUN!). All teaching done by our group is in English, but knowing how to pronounce "DANKESCHÖN" would certainly be a plus. The big PRO of this position is that it is NOT dependent on external funding, there's no fixed research agenda and therefore you can be bold and creative in what you would want to work on in our lab with a perspective to stay up to 6 years.
