Atlanta – The Southern Regional Council (SRC), an interracial organization founded in 1919 to combat racial injustice in the South, recently conducted the third in a series of focus group interviews designed to examine coalitions between African American and Latino communities that have led to significant action, such as the formation of an organization that has actively engaged in a sustained effort to confront political, social or economic inequities and injustices impacting both minority populations.
Project Director Joel Alvarado and Principal Investigator Charles Jaret recently traveled to Miami, Florida, to interview several African American and Latino residents of the Liberty City and Wynwood communities who have worked to improve conditions through a variety of multi-ethnic collaborations. With support from the Miami Workers Center, working class people have developed grass roots coalitions to address welfare reform, voter rights, racial justice, gentrification, economic development and fair trade.
"We are very grateful that Badili Jones and his colleagues from LIFFT (Low Income Families Fighting Together) and MIA (Miami in Accion) were able to share their stories with us. Their experiences will be extremely valuable to others in the region trying to organize two distinct communities across racial, cultural and linguistic lines," observed Charles S. Johnson, Chair of SRC.
The Miami focus group follows earlier focus groups in Atkinson County, Georgia and Greensboro, North Carolina, as part of SRC's effort to examine coalitions among African American and Latino communities in the Southeast to address issues of mutual importance. These focus groups will form the basis of case studies to be included as part of report to be published in a special issue of the Southern States Legislative Review. Funding assistance for the project comes from the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
Alvarado has previously served as a policy analyst for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, as Associate Director of the Southern Center for Studies in Public Policy, and as a Congressional Aide. Dr. Jaret is Professor of Sociology at Georgia State University, whose teaching interests lie in the areas of urban sociology, race/ethnicity and immigration.

The LSE approach to econometrics, named for the London School of Economics, involves viewing econometric models as reductions from some unknown data generation process (DGP). A complex DGP is typically modelled as the starting point and this complexity allows information in the data from the real world but absent in the theory to be drawn upon.  The complexity is then reduced by the econometrician by a series of restrictions which are tested.

One particular functional form, the error-correction model, is often arrived at when modelling time series. Denis Sargan and David Forbes Hendry (with his general-to-specific modeling) were key figures in the development of the approach and the one way the approach has been extended is through the work on integrated and cointegrated systems by Robert F. Engle, Clive Granger, and Søren Johansen. Another commonly used functional form is distributed lag or autoregressive distributed lag.

David F. Hendry is considered to be the principal architect of the LSE approach. The methodology is often referred to as general-to-specific modelling, "Gets modeling" or "Hendry's methodology".

The software package OxMetrics implements this process via the PcGive module Autometrics

In the 1970s, when the LSE approach was in its infancy, Edward E. Leamer was an early critic of model discovery methodologies.

The approach evolved to include: multiple reduction path searches, indicator saturation, COMFAC testing, and cointegrated vector autoregressive structures.

Economists often associated with "Hendry's methodology" include Clive Granger, Robert F. Engle, Søren Johansen, Grayham Mizon, Jennifer Castle, Hans M. Krolzig, Neil Ericsson, and Jurgen Doornik.

Q: How to check if this deque is empty in Python? from collections import deque
Q = deque()

How to check if this deque is empty? Is there any function like isEmpty() to check this? Can someone help? I looked for a function in the documentation but unable to find any?

A: Simply pythonic way:
from collections import deque
Q = deque()
if not Q:
   print("Queue is empty")

You should know this power of great Python, that each collection becomes false if it is empty let it be sets, lists, dictionary, deque etc.
if data_structure:
    print('Data structure is not empty')
else:
   print('Data structure is empty')

A: The length of Q will be 0 if the input of deque() is empty:
from collections import deque
Q = deque()
assert len(Q) == 0

Napoleon exiled to Elba, the beginning of the hundred days campaign
Napoleon exiled to Elba and the beginning of his last military achievements the hundred days campaign. The Emperor Napoleon escaped from his exile the island of Elba and returned to France at the beginning of March 1815. He reformed his army with astonishing speed, and determined to conquer Belgium and Holland as a first step to the rebuilding of his empire. And so begun Napoleons the hundred days campagn. The powers which were meeting at the Congress of Vienna mobilized their armies to stop him, but only two could be brought to Belgium in time: the Prussian army commanded by Marshal Blucher, and a mixed army of British, Belgian, Dutch and German troops under the command of the Duke of Wellington. Most of Wellington's British army, which had been victorious against the French in Spain, had been dispersed overseas, and he had a low opinion of his new forces. Inevitably, they were divided in their languages, loyalties, and expenence.
Napoleon crossed the frontier beyond Charleroi on 15 June. Blucher fought hirn at Ligny, a smal1 village 15 km north east of Charleroi on the 16th, but was forced to retreat towards Wavre. On the same day Wellington fought with what forces he could assemble at
Quatre Bras, the crossroads of the Brussels-Charleroi and Nivelles-Namur roads, 13 km south of Waterloo. Whether or not he could have held Napoleon there, he had to retire in step with the Prussians, and on the 17th he drew back in a fighting retreat to the valley south of Waterloo which he had chosen some time before as the strongest position for the defence of Brussels.
Blucher's army at Ligny had, in Wellington's words, been 'damnably mauled', but the intrepid old Marshal promised to march across from Wavre and join Wellington as soon as he could. Wellington received this message at 2 a.m. on 18 June in the inn in the village of Waterloo, and it was only then that he decided to stand and fight that day.
When, however, it became clear that the Prussians could not arrive until the evening, Wellington's mixed army,bad to face Napoleon's attack. By that same evening, Napoleon's army was fleeing in dreadful disorder down the road to France by which it had come. Twenty-two years of war which had ravaged Europe had been brought to an end.
Four weeks later, Napoleon himself surrendered on board a British ship-of-the-line off the west coast of France, to go to his final exile in St Helena and so ends the hundred days campaign

Ӏf you are extremely rate sensitive oг еven mildly rate sensitive then a hard money loɑn is ɗefinitely not the way to go fⲟr you. You can expect a rate in the range of 9% ɑnd as high as 24% depending on the lender and the terms. (I've heard rumors of lеnders сharging higһer rates). Usually the shorter the term or the more complex the loan the һigher the rate.
Yⲟu can not borrοw 100% of the value of the propertу. Now this is a thing most people get confuseɗ about. Ꮪome conventional lenders still offer 100% ⅼoans ƅut since the sub prime situation, personal financial plan hope your credit score is ᧐ff the charts and you have a lot of money lender singapore in reserνe, becauѕе quaⅼifying for one of those now is almost is almost impossible.
Believing tһis philosophy, these money lender offer auto loans bad credit. These loans serve the purpose of alloԝing you to buy уour dream car. They also help you repair your credit. It is easy. You take the loan and repay it on time. This іncreasеs your credit rankings. This is one of the best ways to restore yοur credit scoгes.
But instead of all these flaѡs, if yօu are aware of the nature of pɑyday loans that it is a ѕhort term ⅼoan and you need to repay it on tіme, you will be іn a profit. Also all thе lenders are registerеd organizations and you can find theѕe information on theіг websites. So no doubt in thе faϲt that these are trusted source of licensed money lender singapore.
Fіrstly, yоu should visit the websіte of the financial company and get as much details аs you can. However, it is a simple рrocess that is by entering the related keywords on the search engine. Y᧐u can easily get thе cоntɑct and emaіl address of thе financing company through ᴡhich yoᥙ can call and contact the officials.
There has been situations wһere the people money lender who have bad credit have been faced with emergencieѕ thɑt require money but since they are not credit worthy thеy end up suffering in silence. If you are sսch kind of person, you need not sսffer anymore. You too can get a loan from certain licensed moneylender companies. All you have to do is search for the comрany that iѕ wіlling to finance you.
Payⅾay loans no credit check as the name ѕuggests, is a loan scheme under ᴡhich cash advances аre offered to the peopⅼe in need of corporate loan singapore. These loans are offered without any credit verification or such appraiѕal. As a lender we are least interested in қnowing your past profile. If you fulfill all the loan conditions then you can easily get the credit help approved without any delay. These loans are mainly ѕhort teгm loans that are offeгed for a period of just few weeks only. Even the loan amⲟunt in such loans is very small. It is mostly around 2000 pounds.
In dealing with hard money lenders make sure you are working with credible ⅼendeгs. There are licensed moneylender out theгe who will purposely ѕet you up to fail sο they can take over уour property. Double check credentialѕ and ask for refeгences.
list of moneylender Еᴠen if someone has a negatiνe credit rating or they have declared bankruptcy, getting a payday loan is not an issue. Providers of payday loans don't bother about these statіstics. If they see that one fulfills the aboѵe mentioned criteria they approve tһe foreigner loan.
An unsecured loan means tһat you don't have to be a home owner or own any other large assets in order to qualify for it. These lenders do things a bit dіfferently for people like you. One оf these things is to charge a higher interest rate because of the high risк involved in loaning you the money. However, their qᥙalification procesѕ is much more lenient.

SUMMERSET ABBEY by T.J. Brown
Summerset Abbey
By T.J. Brown
Gallery Books, $15.00
E-books at the usual providers
Synopsis from the publisher:
1913: In a sprawling manor on the outskirts of London, three young women seek to fulfill their destinies and desires amidst the unspoken rules of society in this stunning series starter that fans of Downton Abbey will love.
Rowena Buxton Sir Philip Buxton raised three girls into beautiful and capable young women in a bohemian household that defied Edwardian tradition. Eldest sister Rowena was taught to value people, not wealth or status. But everything she believes will be tested when Sir Philip dies, and the girls must live under their uncle's guardianship at the vast family estate, Summerset Abbey. Standing up for a beloved family member sequestered to the "underclass" in this privileged new world, and drawn into the Cunning Coterie, an exclusive social circle of aristocratic "rebels," Rowena must decide where her true passions—and loyalties—lie.
Victoria Buxton
Frail in body but filled with an audacious spirit, Victoria secretly dreams of attending university to become a botanist like her father. But this most unladylike wish is not her only secret—Victoria has stumbled upon a family scandal that, if revealed, has the potential to change lives forever...
Prudence Tate
Prudence was lovingly brought up alongside Victoria and Rowena, and their bond is as strong as blood. But by birth she is a governess's daughter, and to the lord of Summerset Abbey, that makes her a commoner who must take her true place in society—as lady's maid to her beloved "sisters." But Pru doesn't belong in the downstairs world of the household staff any more than she belongs upstairs with the Buxton girls. And when a young lord catches her eye, she begins to wonder if she'll ever truly carve out a place for herself at Summerset Abbey.
I'm a rabid Downton Abbey fan! I can't ever get enough of the Crawleys and their help, so when I read the synopsis of Summerset Abbey, I knew I had to read this galley!
This is the first in a trilogy by T.J. (Teri) Brown. Sommerset Abbey was released in January of this year, and I thought this would be a perfect time to post my review, as the second book in the trilogy, A Bloom in Winter, has just been released. I'm a firm believer in reading the books in order. So before you jump into A Bloom in Winter, please start with Summerset Abbey.
Summerset Abbey had me on the first page! It's 1913, the year after the Titanic sank, and the modern world doesn't know that a great and terrible war is on the horizon. Their cozy existence is soon to be torn apart with a death. In the first paragraph, when Prudence and Victoria enter the church, the description of the sanctuary as being filled with ladies' black feathered funeral hats that resembled a "flock of ravens" was perfect! You knew exactly what that sanctuary looked like and I had the picture in my mind! I love this kind of writing, when the author can use a few simple, well thought out words to give you the big picture of what was happening!
T.J. Brown wastes no time in throwing her characters into a spin, sisters Rowena and Victoria (both under twenty) and their late governess' daughter, Prudence, have been raised together thanks to the sisters' forward thinking father. No "upstairs-downstairs" distinction in his home. Well, that is, until he dies, leaving his two daughters in a royal mess. But then, if there wasn't any drama, we wouldn't have this wonderful book!
As the girl's uncle takes over their lives and things get turned around and upside down, Brown skillfully twists and turns the readers, as we all fight with the horrid class distinctions that cause issues for the three girls and those around them. Again, author Brown, while telling the story from different character's perspective, manages that difficult balance, keeping true to the character and also true to the over all story arc.
I don't like giving too much of the plot away, and this book came with a big fat bit from the publishers. Let me suffice it to say that I can't wait to get my grubby little fingers on Brown's next installment, A Bloom in Winter.
I do recommend this book, it's well crafted, the characters are defined and complex, and the story has enough twists, turns and secrets guessed at, to make all of us lovers of Edwardian fiction happy!
I give it a big old 4 out of 5 stars! Go get it, or download it now, THEN get T.J. Brown's second in the trilogy, A Bloom in Winter.
This e-galley was provided to me by the publisher, Gallery Books, through Edelweiss, above the treeline in exchange for an honest review.

Q: Activity freezes when button is clicked but code runs in background I have a Zephyr HxM device which sends measurements to the MainActivityZephyr class, the measurements are received correctly and are printed in the logcat. When the measurement is received, it's supposed to be analyzed in the method measurement and the editText is supposed to continuously keep changing with the value of every measurement received.
What happens is as soon as the activity connects with the HxM device, it freezes completely and the  editText does not change but the values received are printed normally in the log cat and the code is executed normally and when the condition is fulfilled, the user is transferred to the RedAlert activity normally.
Any help as to why this is happening and how can I fix it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

A: You are doing all the heavy tasks in the Main UI thread on button click. It is the reason that your activity freezes on the click of the button.
You should do the heavy tasks in the background thread like AsyncTask.

A: I dont know, but what you describe is probably that you are not running on a different Thread all the heavy work , so you get ANR meanwhile the work is being done, and when the work is finish the UI answers.

Q: Getting emails from imap I'm trying to connect to a imap server to get the emails and i'm using this
imap = Net::IMAP.new('example.com')

this creates an imap instance. But when i'm trying to authenticate using
imap.authenticate('LOGIN', 'username', 'password')

I get Plaintext authentication disallowed on non-secure (SSL/TLS) connections.
In the imap instance class i've seen that CAPABILITY property contains this

LITERAL+ SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE STARTTLS LOGINDISABLED

and instead of LOGIN I've used STARTTLS but this seems to be unknown type.

Village Board sets vote on parking meters, biz owners say they will hurt sales
By Jen Nuzzo
JENNIFER GUSTAVSON PHOTO | Perry Angelson, owner of Harbourfront Deli and The Loft, submitted an anti-parking meter petition signed by 626 people to the Village Board Monday night.
Greenport Village officials say they are proposing to install parking meters downtown in order to improve traffic turnover and help increase business at local shops, but some store owners are concerned the move will deter shoppers from visiting their stores.
Perry Angelson, owner of Harbourfront Deli and The Loft, has owned his businesses on Front Street for the past 22 years. During that time period, traditional parking meters were removed under former Village Mayor David Kapell's administration in an effort to make Greenport more visitor-friendly.
"We had meters and they didn't work and that's why they took them out," Mr. Angelson told The Suffolk Times this week. "I don't see any pros to [parking meters] at all. I just see it as another tax."
During the Village Board's monthly meeting Monday night at the Third Street firehouse, Mr. Angelson submitted an anti-parking meter petition signed by 626 people. Over the past few weeks, copies of the petition were circulated at his restaurants, as well as at D'Latte, Colonial Drugs and Sweet Indulgences. In addition to hard copies of the petition, Mr. Angelson posted an online petition at Change.org.
Mr. Angelson said he drafted the petition after he heard that the Village Board held a meeting Feb. 7 with a representative from New Jersey-based Metric Parking, the same company that installed meters in Port Jefferson Village. While the Village Board hasn't approved a contract with Metric Parking, it was given a private demonstration by the company on how the machines work.
Village Administrator David Abatelli said the Village Board came to a consensus following the demonstration to pursue a pay-by-space method. This involves the village painting numbers on about 90 parking spots located on Front and Main streets. Metered parking is proposed for all of Front Street and along Main Street starting at Front Street and ending at either Central Avenue or Park Street.
Drivers will have to enter their parking space number at a meter, which will accept both cash and credit cards. Once a parking space is paid for, the machine will issue a receipt indicating what time the meter will run out.
The parking meter spaces are expected to cost $1 per hour and will have a two-hour limit. Drivers wishing to park over two hours will have to feed one of the seven solar-powered parking meters once the two hour time period expires. Mr. Abatelli said the company also offers an online system where drivers can pay through a computer or smartphone.
Initially, the village was looking to pursue a different method called "pay and display." With this method, drivers would have to display a ticket on their dashboard after paying for a parking spot. This method is less expensive because the village wouldn't have to maintain the painted numbers within parking spaces, Mr. Abatelli said.
But the Village Board ultimately decided after the Metric Parking demonstration that pay-by-space is a more user-friendly option. In order to make up for the additional maintenance costs associated with this method, the village is expected to purchase one less meter, for a total of seven parking meters.
In June, the Village Board approved a $100,000 bond to pay for new parking meters, road striping and signs letting drivers know of the changes. Metric Parking's meters cost about $8,500 each. In addition, the village is allocating $12,000 to pay for a Southold Town Police traffic control officer to enforce village parking regulations full-time during the summer.
The village has been wrestling with the best way to handle the congestion for the past few years since many people now park on Main and Front streets early in the morning and leave their cars there all day, making parking more difficult for visitors during the swamped summer months.
The Village Board had a downtown parking study completed in 2009 called the "Village of Greenport Parking Management Workshop" after business owners expressed parking concerns. According to the study, parking rules and regulations won't work without appropriate enforcement.
Many business owners who spoke at Monday night's meeting said they would rather see a traffic control officer issue tickets to parking violators instead of village-installed meters.
Village Trustee Chris Kempner said there is no budget for a traffic control officer to enforce any of the parking laws without the revenue generated by the meters.
Greenport Business Improvement District president Peter Clarke said he's looking to build on the work done by his predecessor Mike Acebo, who assisted with crafting the parking meter study in order to find solutions to the downtown parking problems. Mr. Clarke said he's aware of the "loud opposition" to the Village Board's current plan and asked that business owners reach out to him with their concerns.
"At this point, what I have read and surmised of the situation, both the study and the recommendations made by the Village Board makes sense to me," he said. "However, I believe it's incumbent on me to not only continue the polices set by my predecessor, but to listen to the members that constitute our group."
The Village Board is expected to vote on the parking meter contract at a special meeting at 5 p.m. March 8.

NSW Government's Chief Data Scientist on Data Governance Frameworks to Protect Privacy, Security, and Ethical Standards
Data Deliver 11.01.2022 7 min
Ian Oppermann, Aparna Sundararajan
Dr. Ian Oppermann Chief Data Scientist at NSW Government
Aparna Sundararajan Senior Research Strategist
Dr Ian Oppermann is the NSW Government's Chief Data Scientist working within the Department of Customer Service. He is also an Industry Professor at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS).
In the lead up to presenting at ADAPT's gathering of top Chief Data Officers, Ian speaks with Senior Research Strategist, Aparna Sundararajan, on his thoughts around data sharing frameworks.
When asked what the most crucial action leaders can take today to create future-ready information architectures, Ian answered that managing data quality was the single, most important priority.
Ian also discusses purpose-led data custodianship, wherein risks and governance must consider how the end-user leverages data.
He also hints at a near-future of deploying machine learning and artificial intelligence on the NSW Government's datasets.
Aparna Sundararajan:
This is our first event for Chief Data Officers, Chief Data Architects, and engineers, the analytics and visualisation teams. From their perspective, in that context, what is your session going to deliver for them?
Ian Oppermann:
Thanks very much for having me and especially for the sneak peek, but New South Wales has been on quite a data journey. We started some time ago with the data analytics centre. We've been doing data-driven projects using data science. And over the years, we've realised that there are some really big frameworks we need to put in place.
Last year, we released our AI strategy policy and how-to guide. We also released our Smart Cities, Smart Places, Strategy and Frameworks. We've just recently released our Data Sharing Strategy.
That may seem to have the cart before the horse or the wrong way around, but data sharing is the big game.
As we've been moving along, we've been trying very hard to reframe the conversation around outcomes and indicators and build the frameworks for data sharing and governance for different types of data.
Not all data sets are the same, but they also identify the data as an asset. Identify the most valuable data assets within the New South Wales government, and genuinely treat them as assets and build the systems and frameworks around them that allow us to appropriately value the data that we've got.
That's great. I'm glad you mentioned data as an asset because I was speaking with Rocky just today. He also mentioned data as an asset, treating it as an intangible asset, and creating value. Now it seems like there are different rules for data as such within organisations. And we're talking a lot about how we create value externally.
But when we look at the ADAPT survey that we conducted, we also see huge internal challenges from the data. The value of data that has not been able to be generated presents a lot of challenges.
There are different roles in terms of Chief Data Officer, Chief Data Architect, engineers, data visualisation, and analytics teams. And everyone seems to be working in a different accord. How do you from your experience and especially how you planned the whole data journey within the New South Wales Government, what are some of the best practices you are seeing? What's working?
You just asked a very, very big question. One of the things about data is that it has many, many different uses, and it has different values to different people depending on the use.
The reason you want to use data matters quite profoundly.
It matters because when you're thinking of the role of the data custodian, thinking about all the different risks and governance issues associated with the use of that data, that data custodian needs to look down at the end-use case. The way the data gets there to understand whether or not the frameworks are appropriate, the use is appropriate, the authorising mechanisms are appropriate.
The other aspect is, of course, that not all data sets are the same. Some data sets are really sensitive and personal. And the sensitivities come from so many different dimensions. Some data sets are not that sensitive but still have personal information.
Some data sets are very sensitive and do not have personal information, and some are neither sensitive nor personal. So again, the issues you need to think about the roles and responsibilities you need to contemplate depend very much on the data subject itself.
It's about how that data is going to be used again, those sensitivities, along that data lifecycle. So the upshot of all of this is it's complicated.
It's complicated depending on how you intend to use the data and for what purpose. So that complexity often inhibits data sharing and use and often inhibits the release of value from data.
The first question was around the value of data itself, treating data as an asset.
It seems insane that we rely so much on data, but we don't have an accounting standard that would recognise data as an asset.
We are genuinely trying to value the data assets we create, the data assets that we use. And some of it is what it costs to create.
Some of it is, what would someone pay to access the data? And we say pay in nominal terms, in terms of government, and what would the damage, or the impact or harm be if the data was accidentally released. Trying to develop frameworks like that gives us a sense of the value of the data asset and, again, thinking across the entire data life cycle, where we need to put in place governance and processes.
That then speaks to the second part of the question you asked, and that's the different roles. Because we look across data from the actual creation to the transmission, storage, analysis, and use of insights or reuse of insights to archiving, and then potentially deletion, the roles change during the course of that.
It is important to think about the roles that swap in and out, whether a data engineer or a data architect or data scientist, that essentially has different levels of primary responsibility at different stages in that data life cycle.
The final part of that is that it's so complicated and the roles change so much depending on where you are in the data life cycle and the context that we need to simplify it.
One of the aspects of the new data strategy is, can we take all of those complexities and map them to a couple of different templates. In this high trust environment, you need to have expert people working in a highly authorised, highly secure environment.
This needs to be considered through to, this is data we're going to release as open data. The terms and conditions and frameworks and expectations you've put on those different layers of levels of trust or levels of security need to flatten out, need to simplify because quite honestly, the complexity is so great, if we don't map it to three or four or five templates, then we get nowhere. That was a very, very long answer, but you asked a very, very big question.
That was a very succinct answer, Ian. I think it makes a lot of sense, especially with looking at what our audiences are struggling with are exactly those things. What is the entire outcome that they're trying to achieve?
Then what is the life cycle or the journey of data, and from what you shared, I almost feel like the whole journey can be divided into the actual roles of people who take care of data at each journey so that the outcomes can be achieved. And then it sort of becomes a circle.
I'm keen to understand more about the framework and how it tackles these areas in the session. What are you personally most excited about for 2021-'22 from the data perspective?
Yeah, that's a really good question.
At least looking around at my colleagues, the use of data is inevitable.
The use of smart, whether it be artificial intelligence or more sophisticated machine learning, is inevitable.
As we continue to deliver a better experience for the customers of New South Wales, and that's the language we're using in New South Wales, not citizens, but customers, as we deliver better, more personalised, more seamless services to the customers in New South Wales.
We are deliberately but cautiously moving forward with the increased use of data. The exciting part is that I think we now, after at least my perspective, after all of these years of doing and trying, are starting to build useful frameworks that allow us to talk about things in terms of outcomes. These outcomes are described in very public principles, which we can argue about, and we can debate.
This is a language that we will describe in human terms, but we're now starting to build the pathway between the principles and the bits. We're starting to build the frameworks that allow us to connect what we want to achieve to measures, risk frameworks and the policies associated with that down to… And this is what we do with this data set. And this is what we do with this data set under these circumstances.
That journey between the principles and the bits is starting to make sense.
And we're starting to build genuine frameworks that allow us to move down to what an engineer or an architect or a data scientist put in should do, back out to the real world of principle-based outcomes.
That's exciting. It's starting to come together.
Wow. That's, that's, really, really interesting.
If you had to just give one piece of advice as to one thing that every organisation should definitely, just start with, that 1% improvement on their data strategy, what would that be?
That's, again, a tricky question. When discussing trying to achieve these big real-world outcomes, we talk about some no regrets activities, and the no regrets activities typically refer to improving your data capability.
You don't need to be perfect to get started. You should just get started and try to improve your ability to use and analyse.
But if you ask for one thing, it's data quality. Data quality is the biggest of the sensitivities that drive people away from data sharing and use.
People are worried about their data quality; they're worried about insights that are generated. They're worried about how it reflects on their organisation. As a no regrets activity, invest in improving data quality.
Oh, great. What stuck with me is valuating data. The asset value, the framework, and the no regrets attitude. Well, thank you so much again for talking to me. I hope the audiences are going to really like your sessions and take away a lot from them.
Thank you. Alright, fantastic, I look forward to it.

Harriet Ball Schools Howell, 96, of Mechanicsville, passed away peacefully on Thursday, January 10, 2019 with her family by her side. She was born to Lucy and John H. Ball on April 7, 1922 in Salvia, Virginia. Harriet attended Longwood College and was a Charter Member of Chamberlayne Heights Methodist Church, a member of Old Dominion Women's Club, as well as Virginia DAR. She was preceded in death by her husband of 29 years, Clarence Beale Schools. She is survived by her husband of 35 years, James "Jim" Howell; daughter, Diane Hale (Jim); sons, Ron Schools (Sandy) and C.B. Schools (Terry); grandchildren, Chris Hale, Sara Broughton, Jake, Clay, Rachel and Jon Schools; and five great-grandchildren. Harriet loved nothing more than being with family and friends. Her tremendous zest for life was infectious to all those around her. She was a true family matriarch and will be forever missed. Visitation will be held on Tuesday, January 15, from 4 to 8 p.m. at Woody Funeral Home, 9271 Shady Grove Rd., Mechanicsville, Va. 23116, where a funeral service will be held on Wednesday at 10 a.m. Interment will follow in Signal Hill Memorial Park.

Time Constraints - Summer school requires 3 weeks per semester, which is 6 weeks for a year long subject and there simply isn't enough time to do so. Summer School needs to be complete no later than August 2nd, 2019 to ensure successful processing of grades, paperwork before registration for the new school year.
Costs - Planning (and hence costs incurred related to resources being used) for 2019 summer school has already begun and planning for a separate summer school will only incur additional costs which make it expensive and financially not viable.
Teacher Availability - It is very difficult to get a teacher to agree to work these extra hours outside of the normal summer school hours.
Varied Subjects - While Modern World History would be the popular class choice for current Freshmen, other Orchestra Students may want other classes such as US History, American Government, Economics, or Math and Science subjects. One just can't accommodate these requests for a wide range of classes.
MBX also is wary of setting a precedence for any future groups.
OFL (Opportunities for Learning) - is a public Charter High School that offers students a flexible personalized schedule.
ECC (El Camino Community College) offers a wide range of classes across various subjects.
All the above are viable options. We suggest talking to your student's counselors, if you are unsure of what to do. If this trip was planned for during the school year, your student would miss more than a week of school, which besides being hard to do, is not favorable to teachers. Some teachers do not allow students to take make-up tests, or turn in projects and homework assignments at a later date. Moreover, if your child is also a student athlete, it is hard to be absent from a sport. Also, the trip would have to be much shorter, if we planned for it during the school year. Spring Break was not the best option too, as some students participate in trips with the Language Arts Department, and would not be able to attend.
Some parents asked about using mileage points to book the trip. While it will create more work for our Finance VP, we will work with Culture Path to figure out how we can make that happen. If you want to use points for your trip, we need to get that information ASAP.
It is not a problem for people to extend their trip. If you plan to return at a later date, please let us know ASAP or by the deadline we send out after we commit to the trip with Culture Path. Parent Chaperones, we recommend that you not extend your trip, as you are working airport to airport and we will need to reassign your group, which will be difficult.
Students and parent chaperones committed to the Spain trip do not have the option of starting their trip early and meeting us in Spain. All students and parent chaperones must travel together leaving from LA to Spain at the predetermined date.
We would be happy to organize a shadow tour if we have 25 or more people interested. The costs would be higher than the main trip for two reasons: 1) During rehearsal, other sightseeing activities would be organized for the shadow tour. 2) In Valencia, the group is staying at a special facility that is conducive to this activity. Also, we got some discounted rates at this facility as it is being organized with the help of some local music friends. For Valencia (and possibly for the other cities) the shadow tour would be staying at regular hotels, not the same as the students. We will get back with deadlines on when we need your family information for a shadow tour so we can start with planning for the same.
Orchestra families need to know that they cannot pull their students out of the chaperone groups to do any other family excursion, lunch or dinner outing, meet with friends and family, etc. We are responsible for the students as it is essentially a school field trip.
We hope we have addressed all your questions and concerns.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact Beth Nicosia, Booster President.

Purification of GST-Fused Cyanobacterial Central Oscillator Protein KaiC
P. Kim, A. Kaszuba, H. I. Jang, Y. I. Kim
Chemistry and Environmental Science
Abstract: The cyanobacterial circadian clock is the most well-understood and simplest biological time-keeping system. Its oscillator consists of three proteins: KaiA, KaiB, and KaiC. When combined together in a test tube, the Kai proteins produce a free-running 24-h cycle of rhythmic auto-phosphorylation and auto-dephosphorylation. To generate a robust circadian rhythm of the in vitro reaction mixture, KaiC, the core oscillator protein, must be purified with an untraditional approach, since even the smallest amount of impurity can hinder its post-translational activities. Until recently, series of fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) columns (glutathione S-transferase (GST), anion exchange (Q), and desalting columns) have been used to purify the oscillator proteins, often requiring laborious elution processes. Although the common methodology has already been established, whether the purified KaiC can produce robust oscillations remains to be verified. Here we emphasize the significance of eliminating the Q step and lengthening the step of removing the non-specifically bound impurities on the GST column for generating a rhythmic KaiC phosphorylation in vitro. These findings demonstrate the potential for shortening the amount of time and effort it takes to purify proteins without compromising its quality.

List of the Pre-Roman peoples of the Iberian Peninsula
(Redirected from Pre-Roman peoples of the Iberian Peninsula)
Main language areas, peoples and tribes in Iberian Peninsula c. 300 BC.
This is a list of the Pre-Roman people of the Iberian peninsula (the Roman Hispania, i. e., modern Portugal, Spain and Andorra). Some closely fit the concept of a people, ethnic group or tribe. Others are confederations or even unions of tribes.
Non-Indo-European speakersEdit
AquitaniansEdit
Airenosini/Arenosii
Iacetani
Vascones
IberiansEdit
Andosini - in the mountains of East Pyrenees southern slopes, in the high Segre river basin, area of modern Andorra.
Ausetani - in the Osona region (old County of Osona), in the middle Ter river basin. Ausa (today's Vic) was their main centre.
Bastetani/Bastitani/Bastuli - The biggest iberian tribal confederation in area, they dwelt in a territory that included large areas of the mediterranean coast and the Sierra Nevada, in what are today parts of the modern provinces of Murcia, Albacete, Jaén, Almería, Granada and Málaga. Basti (today's Baza) was their main centre.
Mastieni - in and around Mastia territory (Cartagena).
Bergistani/Bergusii - in the high Llobregat river basin, roughly in today's Barcelona province. Berga was their main centre. North of the Lacetani.
Castellani - in the high Ter river basin, East Pyrenees southern slopes. North of the Ausetani.
Cessetani/Cossetani - in the Tarraco region (roughly in today's central and east Tarragona province), in the mediterranean coastal region. Kese (Tarraco in Roman times, that would become the Hispania Tarraconensis capital), was their main centre.
Ceretani/Cerretani - in Cerretana (today's Cerdanya/Cerdaña) and other East Pyrenees mountains southern slopes, also in the high Segre and Noguera rivers basins (tributaries of the Iberus - Ebro river), in the east part of Ribagorça. Libyca or Julia Libyca (today's Llivia) was their main centre. North of the Ilergetes and the Bergistani.
Contestani - South of the Sucro (Xúquer) river and north of the Thader (Segura) river, in an area that today is roughly part of the Alicante/Alacant, Valencia, Murcia and Albacete provinces. A tribal confederation. East of the Bastetani.
Deitani - in and around Ilici territory (today's Elx/Elche)
Edetani - North of the Sucro (Xúquer/Júcar) river and south of the Millars river, roughly in today's Valencia province. One of the biggest iberian tribes or tribal confederations. Edeta (Roman times Lauro, today's Lliria), to the northwest of Valencia, was their main centre, Arse (Saguntum in Roman times, today's Sagunto/Sagunt) was also in their territory. North of the Contestani and the Bastetani and south of the Ilercavones.
Elisyces/Helisyces - a tribe that dwelt in the region of Narbo (Narbonne) and modern northern Roussillon. May have been either Iberian or Ligurian or a Ligurian-Iberian tribe.
Ilercavones - in the low Iberus (Ebro) river basin to the Millars river along the mediterranean coast and to the inland towards the Sierra de Gúdar, in Ilercavonia. One of the biggest iberian tribes or tribal confederations. Hibera (Roman time Dertusa or Dertosa, modern time Tortosa) was their main centre. North of the Edetani, south of the Ilergetes, east of the Sedetani and west of the Cessetani.
Ilergetes/Ilergetae - in the plains area of the middle and low Segre and Cinca rivers towards the Iberus (Ebro) river margins. One of the biggest Iberian tribes or tribal confederations. Iltrida (Ilerda in Roman times, today's Lérida/Lleida) was their main centre.
Indigetes/Indigetae - in the low Ter river basin, East Pyrenees southern slopes, they occupied the far north east area of the Iberian Peninsula known as Hispania Tarraconensis, in the gulf of Empodrae (Empúries) and Rhoda (Roses), stretching up into the Pyrenees though the regions of Empordà, Selva and perhaps as far as Gironès, in what is roughly today's Girona Province. Indika/Indiga or Undika was their main centre. A tribal confederation: they were formed by four tribes.
Lacetani - in the middle Llobregat river basin and surrounding hills. Northwest of the Laietani.
Laietani - in the low Llobregat river basin, along a part of the Mediterranean coast roughly in what is today a part of the Barcelona province and Barcelona city. Laieta (Barcino in Roman times and Barcelona in modern times) was their main centre.
Oretani? - In the high Baetis (Guadalquivir) river valley, eastern Marianus Mons (Sierra Morena) and southern area of today's La Mancha. They could have been an Iberian tribe, a Celtic one, or a mixed Celtic and Iberian tribe or tribal confederacy (and hence related to the Celtiberians). The Mantesani/Mentesani/Mantasani of today's La Mancha and the Germani (of Oretania) in eastern Marianus Mons (Sierra Morena) and west Jabalón river valley, sometimes are included in the Oretani but it is not certain if they were Oretani tribes.
Sedetani - south of the Iberus (Ebro) river and west of the Guadalope river, roughly in the middle basin of the Iberus (Ebro). Salduie (Roman time Salduba and Caesaraugusta and modern time Zaragoza) was in their territory and they were possibly closely related to the Edetani. West of the Ilercavones.
Sordones - in the Roussillon territory (Pyrénées Orientales Départment, France), Ruscino (today's Château-Roussillon near Perpignan) was their main centre.
Vescetani/Oscenses - In today's northern Aragon, east of Gállego river, in Sobrarbe, in and around Bolskan, later Osca (Huesca), and high Cinca River valley, Spain. They could also be related to the Vascones and therefore be related to the Aquitani speaking the Aquitanian language, or a mixed Iberian-Aquitanian tribe or tribal conderacy.
Unknown named tribe or tribes in the Balearic Islands (formed by the Pityusic Islands and Gymnesian islands), may have been Iberians.
Indo-European speakersEdit
CeltsEdit

Not synonymous of all the Celts that lived in the Iberian Peninsula but to a narrower group, the majority of Celtic tribes in the Iberian Peninsula were not Celtiberians. They spoke Celtiberian (a Continental Celtic language of the Q Celtic type).
Cratistii

Cempsi
Conii – according to some scholars, Conii and Cynetes were two different peoples or tribes and the names were not two different names of the same people or tribe; in this case, the Conii possibly dwelt along the northern banks of the middle Anas (Guadiana) river, in today's western Extremadura region of Spain, and were a Celtici tribe wrongly confused with the Cynetes of Cyneticum (Algarve) that dwelt from the west banks of the Low Anas (Guadiana) river further to the south (the celticization of the Cynetes by the Celtici confused the distinction between the two peoples or tribes).[2]
Mirobrigenses
Sefes/Saefes
Celtici of Arunda (Ronda) – southernmost Celtic tribe, in south Turdetania, later Baetica Roman province, (in today's western Málaga Province), Andalucia region.

Varduli – today's East Basque Country, they might have been Celtic (see Late Basquisation), they were later assimilated by the Vascones in the 6th and 7th centuries; Some consider them not Celtic, possibly a Pre-Celtic Indo-European people as the Lusitani and Vettones could have been. If their language was not Celtic it might have been Para-Celtic like Ligurian (i.e. an Indo-European language branch not Celtic but more closely related to Celtic). [5].
Belgae?
Suessetani - Far North Western Aragon and Far South Eastern Navarra (Spain), between the Gallicus (Gállego) and Low Aragon rivers and between the Ebro river and Sierra de Santo Domingo Mountains. Alba (Arba) river basin (a tributary of the Ebro) was in the centre of their territory that also included the Bardenas Reales. Corbio was their capital. They were North of the Celtiberians, South of the Iacetani and the Vascones, West of the Galli (tribe). They were later conquered by the Vascones in the 2nd century BC. that were allies of the Romans. Could have been related to the Suessiones (a tribe of the Belgae).[4]
Eastern Celts - They spoke Eastern Celtic or Noric (a Continental Celtic language).
Volcae - an Eastern Celtic people that came from today's Moravia, central part of the Hercynian Forest (Hercynia Silva)
Volciani – might have been a tribe related to the Volcae and not to the Hispano-Celts/Iberian Celts (i.e. the Celts of the Iberian Peninsula). They have been located north of the Iberus (Ebro) river but not very precisely.
Gauls (Galli) – Some Gaulish tribes might have migrated southwards and crossed the Pyrenees (by the north, the central or the south areas of the mountains) in a second or a third Celtic wave to the Iberian Peninsula. These tribes were different from the Hispano-Celtic/Iberian Celtic tribes.
Galli (tribe) – along Gallicus (Gállego) river banks, see place names (toponyms) like Forum Gallorum, Gallur, a different tribe from the Suessetani; might have been a tribe related to the Galli (Gauls) and not to the Hispano-Celts/Iberian Celts.
Celts? Para-Celts? Pre-Celtic Indo-Europeans?Edit
Lusitanians-VettonesEdit
Lusitanians (Lusitani/Bellitani) – Portugal south of the Douro River and north of Tagus River, and northwestern Extremadura (Spain). They spoke Lusitanian that is a clearly Indo-European language but the filiation as a Celtic language is not surely proven (although many tribal names and place names, toponyms, are Celtic). Attempts to classify the language have also pointed at an Italic origin.[5] Hence Lusitanian language may have been a Para-Celtic Indo-European branch like Ligurian (i.e. an Indo-European language branch not Celtic but more closely related to Celtic). The Lusitanians have also been identified as being a pre-Celtic Indo-European speaking culture of the Iberian Peninsula closely related to the neighbouring Vettones tribal confederation.[2] However, under their controversial theory of Celtic originating in Iberia, John T Koch and Barry Cunliffe have proposed a para-Celtic identity for the Lusitanian language and culture or that they spoke an archaic Proto-Celtic language and were Proto-Celtic in ethnicity.

TurdetaniansEdit
Turdetani – Today's Western Andalucia (Hispania Baetica), Baetis (Guadalquivir) River valley and basin, Marianus Mons (Sierra Morena), some consider them Celtic.,[6] possibly a pre-Celtic Indo-European people as the Lusitani and Vettones. If their language was not Celtic it might have been Para-Celtic like Ligurian (i.e. an Indo-European language branch not Celtic but more closely related to Celtic). They might otherwise have been a non-Indo-European people related to the Iberians, but not the same people), (tribal confederation but with a much more centralized power, and had formed an early Kingdom or a Proto-civilisation, see Tartessos)
