In this blog post, I'll provide some information how Application Insights works under the hood. I think it's good to understand how data is sent to Azure and to know which configurations are available so you can adjust and override the default behavior. I'll cover three different topics. First I'll explain how Application Insights collect telemetry data for user sessions and how returning users are recognized. I continue with explaining how telemetry data is sent efficiently to Azure by using buffers. Lastly, I'll cover data sampling which reduces the amount of data that is sent to Azure and eventually reduce the monthly costs. There are three different flavors of data sampling that can be used and each have a different effect on the collected telemetry data.
In the portal of Application Insights, there are many new blades available that provide information about how users are using your website. For example, which pages a user visited during a session, how many returning users you have and many more information. In this section, I'll explain how user information is sent with tracked telemetry data. Let's first focus how Application Insights determines that telemetry data belongs to a user session.
This script is open source and can be found on GitHub: https://github.com/Microsoft/ApplicationInsights-JS. As you probably know telemetry data is sent both client and server side. All telemetry data that is tracked client side will be sent to Application Insights by this script. In order to group telemetry data per user session, a cookie named ai_session is created. For each new user session, a unique value is generated and saved in the cookie. All telemetry data that is tracked and send to Azure is enriched with this generated value. Basically, this means that Application Insights can easily group all telemetry data based on this session value. This can be all kind of telemetry data, for example, when a user visits a page, a custom event is pushed, dependency calls, etc. The created cookie has a sliding expiration date of 30 minutes. The value of the cookie contains three different values separated by a pipe. 1Yq3O|1516899737023|1516900781881.57.
The first value contains the unique identifier, secondly the time when the cookie was created and lastly the renewal time which is being updated when new telemetry data is pushed. If 30 minutes or longer no telemetry data is tracked the cookie is cleared or overwritten with a new session id. In order to control or customize the default behavior, you can use the configuration settings,sessionRenewalMs, sessionExpirationMs. Application Insights can also identify returning users, I'll come back to that later. The isFirst property which is a boolean, tells if it's the first session of a user.
The portal of Application Insights lets you investigate telemetry data in several ways. One of the blades is called 'Sessions' and as the name suggests it let you investigate user sessions. This allows you to analyze individual user sessions. For example, you can see which pages a user visited and how the user interacted with different components on your website. The different filters allow you to discover popular user flows. For example, what did users do before a certain event or pageview and what did they do afterward. All can be useful information to optimize and improve your website.
The way Application Insights recognizes returning users is somehow similar like for collecting telemetry data for user sessions. The first time a new user is visiting your website a unique identifier is generated and stored in a cookie called ai_user. All telemetry data that is tracked for this user is enriched with this unique identifier. The user cookie expires in 365 days and never retires. The value of the cookie contains two values separated by a pipe: URHeT|2017-11-18T14:27:58.369Z.
The first value is the unique user id and the second value is the date time the cookie was created. In the EU the cookie law prevents websites to unasked create cookies that track user behavior. A cookie warning must be displayed and accepted by the visitor before cookies can be created. To prevent that cookies are created you can set the isCookieUseDisabled setting to true. Note, that setting this setting to true cookies are not created and the user id and session id is regenerated every time a page is refreshed or loaded.
Below an example of a page view telemetry data that is sent to Application Insights. In this JSON the session id, isFirst, and user id property is set.
Since Application Insights is running in the cloud, all tracked telemetry data needs to be sent to Azure. Like you saw earlier in a code example this is being done in JSON format. By default, all kind of telemetry data is tracked automatically per request and this can be extended as well. So that means the number of requests to Azure can be quite a lot. To prevent a lot of requests to Azure, Application Insights is storing telemetry data in a buffer. This buffer is either stored in session storage or in a local variable, depends whether or not session storage is available. The setting enableSessionStorageBuffer can be set to false to use the ArraySendBuffer which is using local variables. Another option to use the ArraySendBuffer is to set the isStorageUseDisabled to true. The buffer can hold up to 2000 items or max 102400 bytes. The buffer is flushed when this max is reached or when the maxBatchInterval configuration (default: 15000ms) is elapsed. Flushing the buffer basically means that all telemetry data in the buffer is sent at once to Azure.
As you can see in the screenshot there is a second variable stored in the session storage called AI_sentbuffer. When the AI_buffer is flushed the items are copied to the AI_sentbuffer. The items in this variable are cleared when there is a successful response for sending the items to Azure. A retry policy is activated when there wasn't a successful response.
There is a similar set up for tracking telemetry data server side. The InMemoryChannel is responsible for controlling the buffer. When the developer mode is enabled telemetry data is sent immediately to Azure without storing it first in the buffer. This developer mode is not available client-side. However, it's possible to send telemetry data directly by setting the maxBatchSizeInBytes to 1 and maxBatchInterval to 1.
In order to reduce the amount of data that is collected by Application Insights and to reduce the monthly costs, data sampling can be enabled. As a matter of fact, this is enabled by default. Application Insights provides three different types of data sampling.
Adaptive sampling reduces the amount of telemetry data that is sent to Application Insights. This will prevent that you'll not exceed the maximum rate for sending telemetry data. Adaptive sampling is not active when there is a low volume of telemetry data. Basically, means that adaptive sampling is only operative when your website is facing high-traffic. The sampling algorithm can be customized in the applicationinsights.config. For example, the MaxTelemetryItemsPerSecond defines the max number of telemetry items that are sent per second or ExcludeTypes defines which type should be ignored by the AdaptiveSamplingTelemetryProcessor. At the moment of writing adaptive sampling can only be used server-side.
This type of sampling will also reduce the amount of telemetry data that is sent to Azure. In comparison with adaptive sampling, fixed-rate sampling is always active so it will always sample telemetry data. The sampling percentage can be configured in the applicationinsights.config. Important to note is that related telemetry item (items tracked in the same operation and for a user session) are not affected. So that means when you analyze a page view in the portal you'll always see the related tracked telemetry items like for example custom events. This is applicable for both adaptive and fixed-rate sampling. Fixed-rate sampling can be used both server-side and client-side.
In order to enable fixed-rate sampling server-side, remove the AdaptiveSamplingTelemetryProcessor from the applicationinsights.config file. Add the SamplingTelemetryProcessor and define a sampling percentage, like in the code sample.
Use the samplingPercentage setting to set the sampling percentage client-side.
Under the hood, telemetry data is sampled based on the generated user id. Let's take a closer look how this is done client side. Like I already explained for each user (anonymous and authenticated) a unique user id is generated. This is saved in a cookie named ai_user. To determine if telemetry data should be sampled the user id is used. The method hashCodeGeneragor.getHashCodeScore will calculate a sample score based on the user id. If the score is higher than the configured sample rate the telemetry data will not be sent to Azure.
Below a demo of how this actually works. For every page refresh, I first display the generated user id which is stored in a cookie. Next, I get a hash score based on the user id and if the score is higher than the samplingPercentage telemetry data is sampled. By removing the cookie, a new user id is generated and I repeat the steps until the score condition is false which means that telemetry is sampled.
Ingestion sampling doesn't affect the amount of data that is sent to Azure. All tracked telemetry data is sent to Azure. Ingestion sampling takes place in Azure, simply not all received telemetry data is processed. This type of sampling can only be enabled in the Azure portal and is especially useful when you're close to your monthly quota and don't want to do a new production deployment. By default, ingestions sampling is disabled.
In some occasions, you might always want to see some specific events in the portal. So basically, you don't want to sample these events. This can be accomplished by creating a new TelemetryClient and pass a customized TelemetryConfiguration . Just remove the sampling processors or customize in a way that telemetry data is not sampled like in the code sample.
Please leave a comment below, I would love to get feedback and hear about your ideas.


Confession, baking freaks me out. It is so precise and requires a bit of good cooking karma as far as I am concerned. So when I found a method of making a Healthier No Knead Dutch Oven Bread I got pretty excited. This recipe is based on Jim Lahay's original method of making bread in a cast iron dutch oven. I did make one switch, and that is I used King Arthur Flour Sprouted Wheat Flour which is a 100% whole grain flour. It was a good change!
I found this to be a long process but really quite simple and bad baker proof. It gives me a good base for French Toast Sticks! Plus you know that when you are controlling the ingredients in your kitchen that #cancerhatesit.
Oh and if you find it odd that I am teaching you a gluten-filled recipe, please know I feel 100% whole grains are important in our diet but only in moderation and never processed grains. I will make a blog post about why I am not completely grain or gluten-free in the near future.

Although easy to make Healthier No Knead Dutch Oven Bread does require some preparation. It is dense with a crispy crust and moist inside. Follow the instructions and you will come away with a beautiful round serving bread.
In a large bowl, whisk flour, salt, and yeast until well mixed.
Slowly pour in warm water and use a wooden spoon to stir gently together. Dough will be "shaggy" (It really is lumpy yet nicely-blended with no dry spots of flour) and sticky to the touch, VERY sticky!
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap. Place in cool oven with oven light on for 8 - 18 hours until dough rises. No more than 18 hours. NOTE: I make my dough at night and bake it in the morning) If you don't have an oven light then make sure your dough is in a warm space.
You will know it is ready to bake when the dough top is flat and there are bubbles in the dough.
Heat your oven to 450°, once preheated place your 4-6 quart cast iron dutch oven with lid in the oven and heat for 30 minutes.
Generously flour a sheet of parchment paper. Punch down dough (just use your fist and give the dough a little punch to remove some air). Transfer dough to parchment paper.
Quickly with floured hands quickly shape into a ball. Do not overwork the dough. Sprinkle the top with flour. Fold the parchment around the dough ball and let it rest while the dutch oven is preheating.
Remove dutch oven from the oven (carefully it will be blazing hot!) remove the lid and place the dough ball in the dutch oven. I leave mine in the parchment. If you have an enamel surface in your pan you do not have to do this but it makes for easier clean up if you leave it in the parchment paper.
Cover with lid and place dutch oven back into the 450° oven. Make for 45 minutes. Then remove the lid and cook for 10-15 minutes uncovered or until dough is baked through and the top is golden brown.
Cool slightly before serving. Remeber there are no preservatives in this bread so if you are not eating all at once. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to prevent mold.
I love the idea of adding some fresh garlic or rosemary to this bread.
AND WARNING! Your house will smell like heaven with this recipe!
DON'T over do it bread like this is a treat, not a staple!

Q: React-Bootstrap set value of FormControl Select I have a FormControl which is a Select that I am using in a form. It works fine when adding a new resource, but when I want to edit an existing record I need to set the value of the control. I'm not seeing a good way to set the value of the select / combobox. This is what my JSX looks like.
<FormGroup controlId="group">
    <ControlLabel>Group</ControlLabel>
    <FormControl componentClass="select" placeholder="Group"
                 inputRef={ref => { this.groupSelect = ref; }}
                 onChange={this.groupSelect}>
        <option></option>
        {
            this.state.groups.map(function (group) {
              return <option key={group.id} value={group.id}>{group.name}</option>
            })
        }
    </FormControl>
</FormGroup>

I've tried to access the component this way but it comes up undefined.
console.debug(this.groupSelect);
this.groupSelect.value(1);

UPDATE:
I'm trying the following, but this doesn't appear to be working either because I don't have access in the state, calling bind causes an error.
<FormGroup controlId="group">
    <ControlLabel>Group</ControlLabel>
    <FormControl componentClass="select" placeholder="Group"
                 inputRef={(ref) => { this.state.groupSelect = ref }}
                 onChange={this.groupSelect}>
        <option></option>
        {
            this.state.groups.map(function (group) {
                return <option key={group.id} value={group.id} selected={this.state.selectedGroupId == group.id}>{group.name}</option>
            }).bind(this)
        }
    </FormControl>
</FormGroup>

A: You are missing a crucial piece here, which is you need to set the value of the component. Add:
value={this.state.groupSelectValue || defaultValue}

Where groupSelectValue is the value from the record you're editing, and the defaultValue is what you want to default to if there is no record or no value in the record.
Then, in the onChange event function (groupSelect(e)), you will do:
this.setState({
 groupSelectValue: e.target.value
});

So that the state is updated with the selection.

A: The selected value should come from model (state or property), you are trying to achieve what you need with 'jquery way '- which is wrong.

Q: Conditional pipelining in Bash I have a filter that I want to enable optionally and I wonder how can I do this in bash in a clean way.
FILTER="| sort" # also can be empty
ls $FILTER | cat

This code does not work because it will call ls with | and sort as parameters.
How can I do this correctly? Please mind that I am trying to avoid creating if blocks in order to keep the code easy to maintain (my piping chain is considerable more complex than this example)

A: What you have in mind doesn't work because the variable expansion happens after the syntax has been parsed.
You can do something like this:
foo_cmd | if [ "$order" = "desc" ] ; then
    sort -r
else
    sort
fi | if [ "$cut" = "on" ] ; then
    cut -f1
else
    cat
fi

A: You can create the command and execute it in a different shell.
FILTER="| sort" # create your filter here
# ls $FILTER | cat  <-- this won't work
bash -c "ls $FILTER | cat"

# or create the entire command and execute (which, i think, is more clean)
cmd="ls $FILTER | cat"
bash -c "$cmd"

If you select this approach, you must make sure the command is syntactically valid and does exactly what you intend, instead of doing something disastrous.

Black Hawk Stock Soars Amid Buyout Bid
COLORADO -- As reported by the Denver Post: "Black Hawk Gaming & Development Co. Inc. is asking shareholders to approve a $30 million acquisition by the company's chairman.
"A committee organized by the publicly-held company, which owns the Gilpin Hotel Casino in Black Hawk, the Gold Dust West Casino in Reno, Nev., and 75 percent of The Lodge Casino in Black Hawk, has recommended that the company sell its outstanding stock for $12 a share to the company's president and chief executive officer, Jeffrey Jacobs.
"The announcement sent the company's stock soaring Monday to its highest point in two years. Black Hawk Gaming, which trades on the Nasdaq stock table as BHWK, closed at $10.65 a share Monday, the highest it has been since late 1998.
"The $12-a-share selling price is $1 more than the initial offer by Jacobs, who plans to take the company private through his company, Gameco Inc.
"…Black Hawk's stock languished at about $7 a share for most of 1999 and 2000, despite the firm logging a $6 million profit in 2000. When Jacobs' offer was first announced, the stock climbed almost 49 percent to $9.75."

Remember when Arnold Schwarzenegger played Hamlet?
By Jessie Gaynor
August 13, 2021, 11:12am
Arnold Schwarzenegger is in the news today because he wrote an article for The Atlantic titled "Don't Be a Schmuck. Put on a Mask." The article itself is a lot—Schwarzenegger quotes John Adams and Team America, gives a shout out to "beautiful, powerful" rhinos, and refers to his metal endoskeleton (we usually just call those skeleton, but I appreciate the specificity). That last one led me to wonder whether Schwarzenegger identifies himself only with the most iconic characters he's played, or with all of them—including Hamlet.
That's right—the Terminator once (briefly, satirically) played the Ruminator. In the possibly brilliant 1993 meta-action movie Last Action Hero, Schwarzenegger plays, yes, an action hero who doesn't realize he lives in a fictional universe until his biggest fan, a kid with a magic movie ticket once owned by Houdini(??) crashes through the screen and upends his fictional reality (okay, I said possibly brilliant). Early in the movie, Danny (the kid), bored by the lack of action in Laurence Olivier version of Hamlet he's watching in English class, imagines a better version, starring Schwarzenegger's Jack Slater.
Tagline: Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, and Hamlet is taking out the trash.
Watch the whole clip in all its decisive glory:
No word on how Ophelia makes out in this version, but I'm not optimistic.

Self loves color prompts. And in particular, this week's Cee Neuner Fun Foto Challenge color: LIME.
There is something so refreshing about LIME or LIGHT GREEN.
Self dropped by the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens and was reminded of the healing properties of the color green. She was there mere minutes after it opened. No one was around except for a man carrying a wooden easel. Later, she passed him on the path. He was just setting up.
By the way, the camera she uses is a Nikon Coolpix, about four years old. Got it at Costco. Good price.
This week's Daily Post Photo Challenge is PROLIFIC.
Self will interpret that to mean MANY.
Mary-Ellen Campbell's home in Casper, California is bursting with collages, paintings, books — all of her own making.
The current exhibit at the Mendocino Art Gallery features work by current artists-in-residence. If you put your nose close to one of these dispensers, the smell of each spice is heavenly.
It rained most of the afternoon. Towards 5 p.m., self took a big umbrella and her camera and walked around the Mendocino Art Center, taking pictures in the front garden. Colors are so vibrant in the rain! It was tough juggling the umbrella and the camera, but she managed to get a few decent shots.
Love Cee's Fun Foto Challenges!
Which is to say, the garden at home.
Side Yard: This Viburnum was barely two feet high in 2015. Now, it's almost as tall as the eaves.
Going to see Hostiles (Christian Bale! Rosamund Pike!) in a few.
In this first week of the year, many people anticipate beginnings, changes, and opportunities for growth. Share with us an image that evokes this spirit of change and newness — the smile of a new friend, a freshly planted garden, an empty journal waiting to be filled.


A simple, but relatively fun and engaging maths app, ideal for students being introduced to addition.
The app has a nice clear layout and the design is fresh and uncomplicated. The landing page has buttons for two game play options, one is with numbers from 1-20 and the other is with numbers from 1-81.
You are presented with columns and rows of numbers, essentially like an enlarged telephone keypad. At the top of the screen you are given a target number and the aim of the game is to swipe combinations of number on the 'telephone keypad' that add up to the target number. As mentioned, for the first game the target number is between 1-20 and for the for the second game the target number is between 1-81. You get points for every correct combination of numbers that you swipe, and the more numbers you use to achieve the answer, the more points you get.
The lower target numbers are fairly basic and will work well with younger children, but when the numbers start getting bigger, things can get quite challenging. There is a timer at the top of the screen giving you 95 seconds to get as many correct answers as possible and your high scores are recorded, which is a nice touch. Although simple, the game has quite an addictive characteristic, and I can see children wanting to use the app more than once.
One thing that confused us, is that there is an option to turn off the sound, but whether it's on or off, there doesn't seem to be any sound effects. Another criticism of the app is the in-app advertising. There is a button on the homepage saying 'More Games', which has a basic parental control feature in the form of a two finger swipe. This is fine, however, there is also a tab saying 'News' and this button also clicks through to a list of other games by Ravensburger. We feel this is misleading, as this section is not actually news at all, but just another set of advertising for the developers apps.
Improvements could be made to the variability of the game play, but it has to be said that some the charm is in the simplicity. Overall we'd recommend the app at £1.49 as an easy way to develop the concepts of addition.
Maths? Numbers? Addition? Boring? Not with Number Hero!
Number Hero is an exciting mathematical puzzle for all who love numbers games.
This is how it works: You see an answer displayed. Now connect the numbers until you have reached the correct answer.
You can become the Number Hero in two exciting game modes.
In Mode 1, you only get answers up to 20. In Mode 2, the answers can go up to 100.
- Mode 1: No answer is above 20.
- Mode 2: No answer is above 100.
- You can skip tasks.
Improve with every game and surpass your own high score.


Now that I know more tech people here than before I want to share (or better improve) my knowledge about posting images to CRC forum.
I want to find a way (and commonly acceptable) to post more pictures while finding a suitable balance between size and quality.
While searching different opinions I'm still having doubts if I'm doing it correctly.
Colors quality was affected. But I'm not taking colors so seriously because I thought that pictures like that must represent a moment lived during that event.
Because of that resolution can't be reduced.
About formats I thought that JPEG is unacceptable for raster graphics and GIF gets bigger than PNG. PNG is the default format for screenshot.
On my LineageOS phone that picture looks even more horrible maybe because of antialiasing.
1. Use the Print Screen key to take photo.
2. Photo automatically goes to my Dropbox in PNG format.
3. Open photo with Windows Photo Viewer.
4. Open Microsoft Office Picture Manager.
5. Crop photo to a size that I think looks good, and save it.
6. Follow the CRC Image Gallery upload instructions to post.
Well, captain... I'm doing it in a more complex way without involving any proprietary software or SaaS. Everything I've done so far was entirely "handmade" with GIMP.
Manaplus saves photos in PNG as I push the PS button on my PS3 controller.
Cropping the photo only reduces its size in term of resolution. Indexing colors or using a known palette reduce the amount of information to save from the picture. I've tried using Mirage and other softwares too but I'm not happy with the results.
Anyway I hope that more people like to post more photos in a way that makes this forum more "colorful" without wasting memory.
Once I've found a good way to do it I'll try to repost everything I've done.
Hey there! I've got some quite good results with the GIMP!
Shivtr's free space is about 60% at the time: the more we save, the more we can post.
I've reduced the size of a screenshot lessening the quality to quite acceptable levels from about 900kB to 80+kB.
Keep in mind that the real value behind the picture is not the picture itself but what it represent for us!

Eli Manning, Four Seasons of Hope Join Forces
By Stephen Silver
Samsung's Four Seasons of Hope Foundation has teamed up with New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, with an assist from Best Buy's @15 program, to benefit several charities.
Starting now, a portion of proceeds from Samsung home theater purchases made at Best Buy locations will be donated to a trio of charities: Boys and Girls Clubs of America, Junior Achievement and the World Youth Alliance. The partners have also joined up for a $1 million giveaway of technology to K-12 schools, with some help from Microsoft and DirecTV.
Manning has filmed a public service announcement about the effort, which will air both in Best Buy stores and on DirecTV during the month of October.

I met Nicholas Johnson this year at the AIGA Awards Gala, and after just a few minutes of speaking with him, I knew I had to have him on the podcast. Nicholas is committed to more representation for designers of color, and that's reflected both through his work and in an upcoming book project.
We talked about where Nicholas' desire for representation comes from, and from there we went into a discussion on the notion of a Black design aesthetic, and Nicholas shared the advice that's stuck with him throughout his design journey, as well as what he wants to work on in the next five years. You'll definitely see and hear more from Nicholas in the future!
Leah Gilliam is a force. As an award-winning artist, she uses technology to tell stories, bring awareness to issues, and to ask questions about important topics. And as a design strategist, she lends her expertise with building inclusive spaces to organizations like Out in Tech and Girls Who Code, where she currently serves as VP of strategy and innovation. Did I mention she's also a creator who has made everything from 16mm films to interactive installations to board games?
Like I said, Leah Gilliam is a force.
We sat down to talk about how she first got involved in design strategy, and from there we explored her work as an artist and a teacher, and dove into topics surrounding creativity, finding balance, solving projects, and the notion of a Black queer design aesthetic. I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to share Leah's story and her work with you, so make sure you take a listen!
For our 250th episode, I'm so honored to bring you this conversation with creative director, graphic designer, and entrepreneur Julian Alexander. Julian may be most well known for designing the album cover for 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Trying, and his design work on the Miles Davis box set The Complete Jack Johnson Sessions even earned him a GRAMMY for art direction! Even with those huge accolades under his belt, Julian is a really humble guy, and I think that really comes through in the interview.
We talked about how he got his start in design, his time as a design director for Sony Music, and I asked how his career changed for him after winning the GRAMMY. We also discussed the relationship between design and music, some of his current projects through his studio Slang Inc., and gave some really great advice for designers of all levels. Julian is a true champion for design and designers, and I'm so glad to be able to share his story with you all.
Cheers to 250 episodes of Revision Path!
There's no single way to becoming a designer these days, which I suppose is one of the most interesting things about this industry. Mikell Fine Iles, for example, grew up in San Francisco around art and design, went to Clark-Atlanta University for school, studied more design in Denmark, and worked for agencies Noise and JWT before his current position at Bloomberg as design director. And there's more!
We started our conversation talking about Mikell's day-to-day work at Bloomberg, and from there talked about his time in Atlanta as a student and young professional, discussed what HBCUs can do to prepare the next generation of designers, and he talked about his time studying design in Denmark! Mikell's talent, drive and hustle have really helped propel him to success.
"WeShouldDoItAll isn't just a name — it's a way of life." And let me tell you, Jonathan Jackson was not kidding when he said that. As creative director and partner of the award-winning, Brooklyn-based studio, he and his team have done all kinds of work from websites to fashion to large scale exhibitions. And there's even more!
Jonathan talked to me about his early days at Kent State University, and how his love for architecture planted the seed for what would become WSDIA. We also spent a good bit of time going over how he runs the studio, covering everything from dealing with clients to balancing incoming projects. Jonathan has a lot of great advice for everyone from studio owners to up and coming designers, so this is an interview where you'll definitely want to take notes!

There are two organisations making most of the running here. One is the Australian Smart Communities Association (ASCA), which was created by a group of local government employees who foresaw great opportunities from the establishment of the National Broadband Network. ASCA's members are mostly local councils.
The other is the Smart Cities Council – Australia New Zealand, which is an offshoot of an international body based out of North America. The Smart Cities Council has traditionally represented the vendor / supplier side, but in Australia it also welcomes members from local government.
Having spent several years advocating for #BetterBroadband, pointing to the huge potential the Internet has to improve our economic and social wellbeing, and highlighting flaws in the current NBN rollout, smart cities thinking was a natural fit for me.
So it was with much excitement that I responded to an invitation to meet with representatives of ASCA in Canberra in late 2017. Apparently I impressed all of those present and I was subsequently offered the position of inaugural CEO.
Life at the ASCA helm was challenging from the outset. Like other small member-based not-for-profits ASCA had historically been managed by the founding president – with the aid of three part-time contractors, all of whom lived on Queensland's Sunshine Coast. Chief of these was the administration officer, who just happened to be the spouse of the president, Michael Whereat.
At the time I thought it odd that the president was not on the selection panel. Michael left the organisation several weeks after I arrived.
Notwithstanding his departure from the board, Michael subsequently undertook an ASCA-funded trip to attend a smart cities conference in Barcelona, accompanied by his wife. This was something I might have more easily accommodated were it not for the fact that it precluded me attending the event, much to the surprise of many industry colleagues. We just couldn't afford for me to go too.
Following in her husband's footsteps, Megan Whereat resigned within a week of her return from Europe, adding to the degree of difficulty for the new CEO.
Compounding the usual complexities of working with a volunteer board was the fact that they were geographically dispersed across the county. Despite my best efforts I was unable to ever arrange a face-to-face meeting. In the end I left having not actually met several directors.
I eventually concluded I had encountered a group of volunteer board members some of whom found letting go of the tiller difficult – having been there from day one and no doubt being accustomed to a much more hands-on role than is customary with a CEO on deck. While I considered this somewhat understandable, and certainly not unique in the NFP sector, nonetheless it was frustrating and debilitating.
There was an early false-dawn when a new president, Brook Dixon, pushed for a governance review and a new constitution.
The first draft of the new constitution was written (or more accurately, apparently drawn from the constitution of a similar organisation) by a long-time board member. On reading this document Brook called to tell me he thought it was unsuitable and asked that I prepare a revised version.
One significant change that I inserted – strongly supported by Brook – was for direct membership to replace the existing option for a group of councils to form an intermediary organisation and join ASCA collectively. It is a matter of public record that one of the long-time directors was running such a group. In the end, there was no change to the constitution during my time at ASCA.
By far my biggest challenge was the upcoming ASCA annual conference. The profit from the event in 2017, along with a much smaller flow of member fees, formed a critical element in the budget on the basis of which the decision to hire a professional CEO had been made. Another profitable event in 2018 was essential for ASCA to maintain its growth strategy, including the role of CEO.
At the initial interview in Canberra I had inquired about the conference. Given that I'd previously owned and co-managed a conference production company I was naturally keen to know about the plans ASCA had for 2018. I was assured that everything was in hand. Suffice to say I soon discovered this was not the case.
In week three the previous conference organising company told me they weren't available to manage the 2018 event. I hurriedly secured a replacement organiser and focussed most of my attention on the conference – securing a significant financial sponsorship from the Victorian Government and lining up a selection of high profile speakers.
The conference apparently went well, at least from an operational point of view. We'll have to wait to see the latest annual report to gauge how it went financially.
Since my departure, ASCA has returned to its previous formula of volunteer board management with part-time contractor support.
As is a matter of public record, one director resigned from the board shortly after my departure and was duly appointed ASCA's primary contractor (the remaining Sunshine Coast staff were let go). I have been informed that this person, too, has now left the organisation.
The following is from an agreed statement that formed part of the terms of my negotiated departure. "After careful consideration and deliberation, the ASCA Board decided that the chief executive officer position was no longer required. Mr Laurie Patton, former inaugural chief executive officer left ASCA on this basis and in his departure message to our members stated, I learned a great deal during my time at ASCA and look forward to continuing to work with its members and stakeholders on the promotion of smart cities policies".
ASCA has around 150 of the 500 or so local councils as its members now, so it has considerable scope to grow. I wish its members well in their endeavours to build smart communities.
However, ASCA will undoubtedly have stiff competition from the better resourced and well-connected Smart Cities Council, and a few other fringe groups now playing in this exciting field.

A worthy Gamble
Carlos Castelán
Given the current state of retail, and the escalating tensions between retailers and their CPG partners, one strategic move for CPGs that merits consideration is to "integrate forward" and acquire a retailer for direct consumer access. This strategy bucks the trend of merging with other CPGs (such as Kraft & Heinz or Anheuser-Busch & InBev) and relieves the pressure from several important headwinds in the market today.
A prime candidate for such a move would be Procter & Gamble (P&G).
P&G has not had many wins in recent years. It lost an estimated $100M+ proxy fight with activist investor Nelson Peltz's Trian Partners in December, amidst a narrow vote recount reminiscent of the "hanging chad" debacle of the Bush-Gore election of 2000 and the famous "Dewey defeats Truman" headline from the 1940s – wherein P&G declared victory prematurely. The proxy fight featured big dollars and drama.
In the end, P&G was edged by Peltz, and now management, tail between its legs, will be forced to change. Trian's $25M campaign – summarized in its 94-slide PPT bludgeon, entitled "Revitalize P&G"– highlights how it believes the company should transform. Analyzing the recommendations, combined with the fact that P&G has lost almost 20% of its revenue over the last five years (with, admittedly, some brand divestitures), acquiring or merging with a retailer isn't crazy.
Here are the three biggest reasons why:
Rise of private label and increasing retail demands. Retailers' private label brands continue to take market share from CPG companies – private label now accounts for an almost 20% share of the market. When are CPG companies going to wake-up and realize they're in a "complicated relationship" with retailers? Combine this private label share increase with retailers making bolder asks of their vendors (i.e. Walmart asking vendors to move from 75% on-time ship to 85%) and one wonders when CPGs are going to regain leverage.
Quick guess: likely never.
Focus on innovation; test & learn. It's getting harder and harder for CPGs to balance innovation with driving sales – in fact, Peltz made a point to call out P&Gs lack of innovation. Today, more than ever, direct access to consumers is critical. Case in point: Harry's succeeded, in large measure, due to vertical integration. What better way to innovate quickly than to have a nationwide retail footprint and the data associated with the effort? Why not put Tide Dry Cleaners in retail stores and offer more services? Retail needs more innovation in brick-and-mortar locations, and CPGs, like P&G, would love to have built-in labs where their brands can test new concepts.
Voice-controlled future = bad news for brands. It's clear a voice-controlled world is here to stay and to thrive. Amazon is 'doubling down' on Alexa. Google and Apple are all in on voice as well.
What does this mean for CPGs? As Scott Galloway of L2 has reiterated, this is bad news bears for brands. A move to acquire a retailer helps combat the outcome of a brand-diminished world via voice through direct distribution to consumers. This allows them to manage subscriptions or shape any potential brand loyalties.
The market dynamics are clear. P&G needs to access customers and elevate their brand experience to succeed in the long-run. If a brand, such as General Mills, will spend $8B on a pet food company, why shouldn't a CPG purchase a retailer to own the distribution and customer data, rather than trot out the same playbook? Said another way: if you're a consumer goods company, would you have rather purchased Blue Buffalo for $8B or a retailer — such as Whole Foods Market — for $15B this past year?
A couple retailers stick out as potential fits for P&G via acquisition:
Target – There's a healthy overlap between P&G brands' customers and Target's (middle-class Moms) – in fact, at one point in the not too distant past, P&G accounted for roughly 10% of Target's sales. Despite the strong performance in Q4, it seems that Target doesn't have a clear vision for its future beyond remodeling stores for the next couple of years. An acquisition by P&G could help it get started on a clearer path: an elevated experience hub for Moms and their families – something that's clearly differentiated from other retailers.
Boxed – An ecommerce player which sells household items in bulk, Boxed would be a great acquisition for P&G to get into the retail game at a low price (Boxed is currently valued at $470M). It would give P&G an immediate platform to go direct-to-consumer with a retail value proposition that aligns well to its core portfolio: household items. With Boxed at a relatively early stage, a P&G acquisition would provide the financial backing to continue expanding – potentially even into brick-and-mortar with a different model than club stores.
Kroger – Two Cincinnati-based companies that have had their share of recent struggles? Kroger's national footprint make it a good synergistic target for P&G. A Kroger/P&G merger could help both companies a) develop a more holistic solution for high frequency grocery shoppers through improved in-store experience and a "one-stop shop" for local communities along with b) allowing P&G to get a first-hand look at natural and local suppliers which Kroger has been focused on. On the latter, providing a testing ground for brands – via Kroger stores – paired with P&G's marketing and trend chops, would lead to a more fruitful pipeline of innovation and relevant assortments for customers. Lastly, Kroger is a relatively good deal with it's market cap at almost 1/3 of its annual revenue.
The first step for P&G is to acknowledge the changing market dynamics to identify a holistic solution that addresses the issues before it's too late. At the end of the day, the shift revolves around competition from private label, new consumer expectations, and the rise of technology-enabled convenience. Acquiring a retailer enables P&G to develop new brand concepts by staying on top of changing customer preferences and better control their own destiny.

The Prophetic Nuclear War is on the Horizon Says Yisrayl Hawkins in New Article
Overseer at The House of Yahweh writes a blog post showing how the Bible gives warning that nuclear war will take place in this generation.
The world has been hearing whispers of nuclear war for decades now, but one Pastor says the Bible shows that it's closer than one thinks.
Yisrayl Hawkins, Overseer of The House of Yahweh in Abilene, Texas wrote a new blog post this week giving prophetic evidence of nuclear war taking place in this generation.
Yisrayl writes about the cause that will bring nuclear war, the events that are leading up to it, and the prophecies that give precise details concerning this event.
"Yahweh's Prophet Daniyl actually spoke of this present generation of nuclear knowledge. When you couple his words with Yahshua Messiah's Words, you see, without a doubt, that we are in the last part of the Last Generation given to mankind by the Creator Yahweh to prove that the activities of rebellion, chosen by mankind, against Yahweh's Laws of health, joy, and peace, will lead to nuclear burning," Yisrayl says.
In the 19-page letter, Yisrayl compares scriptures with prophecy and gives solid details that describe exactly how the Bible shows nuclear war in this generation.
"The Savior, Yahshua Messiah, gave many details for us in this Last Generation that coincides with Prophecies given by Yahweh's Prophet Daniyl. Both Daniyl and Yahshua saw things alike, yet, they lived over 500 years apart," Yisrayl says.
Yisrayl says even with a 500-year difference between the two, he closes the gaps that lines up scripture with scripture, putting the pieces of the puzzle together for clear understanding.
He says that although the Bible shows many people will not survive the nuclear war, there are many that will and he shows how that can be accomplished towards the end of his post.
"Surely, you can see the wars taking place now. Forty-one wars are going on at this time. How long do you think it will be before you're involved? There is a way of escape," Yisrayl says.
To read this letter, go to http://www.yahwehsbranch.com
Restoring the Rightful Name of Yahweh and the True Name of the Savior, Yahshua, Whose Names were removed by the Roman Catholic Church and replaced in the Holy Scriptures with words such as lord and god, The House of Yahweh has correctly restored the Heavenly Father's Name and also restored the Savior's True Name in the translation named in Scripture, The Book of Yahweh; and ascribing to the Heavenly Father, the loving, caring attributes that establish Yahweh as the One and Only Heavenly Father is at the core of all teachings from the Great House of Yahweh. Father Yahweh gave mankind a pattern for living, a code of conduct, which The House of Yahweh teaches and promotes as The Body of 613 Laws established by Yahweh, Himself, from the very beginning.

Le grand prieur de l'ordre de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem avait deux sens : celui du prieur conventuel de l'église Saint-Jean de Rhodes mais aussi celui d'un titre de courtoisie donné au prieur du grand prieuré de France.

Historique

Les dignitaires de l'Ordre à la tête d'un grand prieuré portaient le titre de prieur. Il faut noter quelques exceptions quand le grand prieuré de France attira la convoitise des rois de France. Ceux-ci profitèrent souvent de leur pouvoir pour faire nommer un prince ou un bâtard  de la famille royale aux fonctions de prieur du grand prieuré de France, ils portèrent alors souvent le titre de grand prieur de France, royauté oblige. Cela a été le cas de Charles d'Angoulême fils naturel de Charles IX, d'Alexandre de Vendôme fils d'Henri IV ou de Jean Philippe d'Orléans fils naturel du Régent Philippe d'Orléans.

« Media Council issues first fine on a print daily
Hungary's top two TV stations oppose new ad tax »
22 May 2013, 1:19 pm
Amid steady budget increases and cuts to public media staff, Hungary's public media management fund, the MTVA, has been outsourcing production to private firms with close ties to Hungary's ruling Fidesz party, according to an ongoing investigation by pro-transparency investigative reporting NGO, Átlátszó. The group, which has been working to uncover the MTVA's spendings since 2011, has published a series of reports based primarily on leaked documents that detail the MTVA's outside contracts with Government-linked private companies and individuals to produce programs for Hungary's public media.
Átlátszó has been at the forefront of an effort to expose the MTVA's spendings and contracts with Government-linked firms, as part of its wider investigation into the growing dominance of Fidesz-associated companies across various markets, including commercial media, since 2010.
For more on changes to Hungary's public media system under the 2010 media laws, see the CMCS study, Hungarian Media Laws in Europe.
The group has initiated multiple lawsuits against the MTVA for access to records of the public media body's budget and spending, as a result of the MTVA's unwillingness to respond to the Átlátszó's freedom-of-information requests for the data. While the MTVA maintains it cannot reveal its contracts with private companies on grounds it must protect trade secrets (see list of cases below), Átlátszó argues that state-allocated funds should be transparent and publicly available, and that the MTVA is shielding its expenditures of public money to Government-linked firms. A number of first-instance courts have so far have agreed, ruling that the MTVA must disclose the data. The MTVA has consistently appealed the first courts' rulings, resulting in protracted legal battles between Átlátszó and the MTVA.
Átlátszó's fight to expose the MTVA's spending highlights concerns over body's secrecy in dealing with public funds, as well as broader issues raised by numerous critics over the restructuring and centralization of the public media system as a result of the 2010 media laws. The MTVA, which is directly managed by the Media Council, is responsible for overseeing the public media's state-allocated funds as well as for content production and program purchasing.
The MTVA's annual budget has steadily grown by more than 20 percent since the body was formed in mid-2010—from HUF 64 billion (roughly EUR 221 million) in 2011 to 78 billion (roughly EUR 270 million) in 2013. Budgetary increases have coincided with mass lay-offs of more than 1,000 public media staff, which the MTVA says is necessary to trim the country's bloated public media system. But opponents say the MTVA's staff cuts have targeted primarily left-wing journalists as a means of purging Hungary's public media of reporters who are critical of the government's policies. These lay offs have also come amid reports that the body been outsourcing production to some pro-Government companies.
As Átlátszó's legal cases against the MTVA cycle through the Hungarian courts, the group has been publishing leaked documents which show what Átlátszó describes as the MTVA's preferential treatment to several companies with strong ties to Hungary's governing party. In March, the group leaked the MTVA's 2012 budget, which shows major payments to Fidesz-linked firms and individuals.
Átlátszó's investigation of the 2012 MTVA budget also revealed that the body paid HUF 122 million (roughly EUR 405,000) for programs produced by Dextramédia Kft., a company said to be responsible for making a pro-Hilter video for a far-right nationalist Internet TV station in 2011. According to Átlátszó, the MTVA paid the company to produce two programs for Hungary's public TV station Duna TV in 2012. As reported by ATV, the owner of the domain name of Dextramédia also owns N1 TV, and Dextramédia and the neo-Nazi group, Sixty-Four Counties Youth Movement, share a common IP address. News portal Hirszerzo in 2011 reported that one of the owners of Dextramédia, Zoltán Moys, is the son-in-law of Sándor Lezsák, who is currently a deputy speaker of the Hungarian Assembly representing Fidesz.
Átlátszó's prior reports detail contracts given to filmmaker Gábor Kálomista, whose wife, Zsuzsanna Kálomista is the Film Procurement Director at the MTVA, and to László Jáksó, whose company received HUF 841 million (EUR 2.8 million) for the show "Marslakók" that never aired. Jáksó is a friend of Árpád Habony, chief counselor to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, according to Átlátszó.
Some key highlights of Átlátszó's battle with the MTVA to disclose the body's outside contracts follows below:
Public media contracts should be published – first decree verdict says
February 19, 2013: Átlátszó filed a freedom-of-information request to the MTVA to learn about production and transmission rights and occasional amendments to the contracts of several TV shows and documentary series. The MTVA denied the request, saying the information was a trade secret and intellectual property. According to Budapest Tribunal court's first decree verdict, the MTVA has to disclose the requested documents. The MTVA has appealed this decision. Watch the video of the hearing (in Hungarian)
Atlatszo.hu leaks secret amendments of HUF 841 million contract
February 7, 2012: Átlátszó published the MTVA's contract with producer László Jáksó's film company, which documents budget details of the state-funded production of "Marslakók" ("Martians"), for which the government reportedly paid HUF 841 million (EUR 2.8 million). In September 2011, Atlatszo.hu filed a freedom-of-information request for the data but MTVA refused to release the contract. While the court battle to obtain the documents continued, the information was leaked to Atlatszo.hu through the MagyarLeaks whistle-blowing platform. Read the original article in Hungarian.
Court rules MTVA must publish contracts
February 1, 2012: The Budapest Metropolitan Court ruled that the MTVA is obliged to comply with Átlátszó's request to disclose contracts related to the purchase of the new National Television buildings, which were built several years ago by a private company and then leased to the state. Prior to the court case, the MTVA offered to show the documents to Átlátszó if the organization signed a confidentially agreement, according to Átlátszó, but the group refused to comply with this arrangement. The MTVA later claimed in court that the documents are trade secrets and it would be a national security risk to disclose the documents public.
After losing the first- and second-instance court cases, the MTVA published the contracts on its web page.
Simicska's companies favored by the MTVA
December 4, 2011: Átlátszó obtained documents showing that MTVA circumvented the usual bidding process in awarding a contract worth HUF 104 million (roughly EUR 360,000) to advertising companies with ties to Fidesz-linked business mogul Lajos Simicska. As a result of a successful freedom-of-information lawsuit by Átlátszó, the MTVA was forced to reveal documents showing that the Fund used a simplified bidding process, which is allowed when the value of the contract is less than HUF 25 million. In this case the bid was just under that amount, at HUF 24.96 million.
Two weeks after the bid was won by Publimont Hirdetésszervező Kft. and Euro Publicity Kft., the above-mentioned firms with ties to Simicska, the contract was modified and increased to HUF 104.56 million (EUR 360,000). The contract modification was justified on the grounds that "given the number of advertisement placements quoted in the original contract, the required results could not have been achieved." However, according to Átlátszó, the number of advertisement placements offered by the Publimont-consortium to supplement the original contract is exactly the same as the number published by MTVA after the procurement process: 800 lighted posters and 800 billboards in Hungary, 100 billboards in Romania and 96 billboards in Slovakia, and three advertisements on public transportation vehicles.

Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton.
Aaron Burr has now slayed Mike Pence.
After a performance of the musical Hamilton in New York, the man playing the role of Aaron Burr addressed a now-famous politician who was in the crowd – VP-Elect Mike Pence.
The actor, Brandon Victor Dunn, is an African-American man playing a white historical politician. In fact, most of the cast is minority, a stark contrast to the cabinet that Trump and Pence have put together to start the new term in January.
Here's a man who is playing someone who was at one time a VP for Jefferson addressing a man who will be a VP. And he did it with words – kind, assertive words.
Hell, the real Aaron Burr wouldn't have been that kind. He would have shot you.
Shakespeare would be so proud that once again the stage is where someone can "catch the conscious of the" man who wants to be king.
There's even a meme going around on Facebook.
Not to be outdone, Trump had to tweet, demanding an apology.
Theaters are interesting places. When art can help to imitate life and add to our understanding of our word, then they become vital arenas to have discourse.
Theater and arts and writing and anything that involves expression has every right in this country to voice opinions. It's called the First Amendment.
And what was said by Mr. Dunn was not harassment. It was a reminder that as POTUS and VP, you have a responsibility.
If Mike Pence is going to assume office for this country in this time as a man who does not believe in climate change, believes in conversion therapy, and dismisses evolution, then he should get used to people not being so nice to him when confronting social issues.
And if President Trump is going to demand apologies every time someone has a different opinion than he does, then he needs thicker skin.
Besides, I believe Abraham Lincoln has a greater claim to receive an apology from going to a theater.
I just wish Jeff Sessions was there as well.

Eric Rohmer, how did I ever exist without you?
Sure, other artists, countless others, have spent their lives depicting the interrelationships of men and women. But I don't know of anyone who so consistently seems to understand human relationships than Eric Rohmer. So few can build as believable characters, such believable situations. Full Moon in Paris concerns a young woman, Louise (Pascale Ogier), who has arrived at a point of extreme confusion: she loves her long-time boyfriend, Rémi (Tchéky Karyo), but she desperately wants to be alone for once in her life. Rémi likes his life the way he has it, living in the suburbs, doing his job, coming home to Louise. But it's all too stifling for her. She rents an apartment in Paris, but that only partly steadies her mind. Louise also has another, more ambiguous boyfriend, Octave (Fabrice Luchini, who appears in several Rohmer films and stars in my very favorite, Perceval le Gallois). Their relationship is definitely on the romantic side, but both seem to be in it, at least most of the time, for each other's company. They can talk, where Rémi isn't an especially gifted conversationalist (not a good character trait if you're in a Rohmer film!). The film moves along as well as any Rohmer film, but for a long time I was pretty sure that Rohmer wouldn't be able to end it in any significant way, that it would end up being a great film (like I say, I couldn't find one of his films any less), but not one of his best. Fortunately, Rohmer really does find the perfect ending, which ends up lifting the film up and making it one of the director's best. The film really benefits from its perfectly written characters and amazing acting, as well. Ogier gives one of the strongest central performances in Rohmer's canon. Fabrice Luchini, man, I love this actor! He stars in my favorite Rohmer film and has a small roll in my second favorite (the vastly underrated 4 Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle from 1987). Luchini is so perfect here, so subtly hilarious that most will not notice it. During one of Octave's many conversations with Louise, he rattles off a really good line and has to stop to write it down. Louise understandingly excuses herself to the restroom to give him time to get his quip recorded. 9/10.

A woman who is in a relationship tries to create space for her own by living in two houses
Eric Rohmer is one of my favorite directors because he captures human drama without being dramatic at all. The characters talks, explains their emotions, tries to make themselves understood by others, but there is a constant misunderstanding that cannot be explained. There is a vague feeling of despair and the futility of communication in general. When I first saw Eric Rohmer's film it reminded me of one of those TV shows that tries to portray a normal day-to-day life to teach foreign language. I feel Eric Rohmer's specialty is in this focus on language and communication, not to portray a specific story, but to portray communication and thus leads us to a story "out side" of the communication.
Reviewed by Céline 10 / 10 / 10
I gave this movie a 10 rating. What follows is a positive review.
"Les Nuits de la Pleine Lune" is by far one of the best movies I have seen. Rohmer manages to capture the full complexity of a relationship that is on the rocks. Fabrice Lucini as Octave is very believable, even during his pensive rants in front of the camera for an extended period of time. Pascale Ogier as Louise gives a very good performance, showing us how a woman like Louise acts when caught in the middle of trying to decide between two men and resisting another. She is sometimes seducing, sometimes a devoted girlfriend, and sometimes just acts like she wants to run away from it all. Tchéky Karyo is perfect in his ability to show Remi's awkwardness in social situations. Overall, an excellent movie. --Céline. Contact me at [email protected]

Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), has warned the Federal Government against signing the African Free Trade Agreement.
NLC President, Comrade Ayuba Wabba, in a statement yesterday, said the policy would, among others, allow a foreign airline to directly do local scheduled flights without employing Nigerians.
"There is a renewed, extremely dangerous and radioactive neo-liberal policy initiative being driven by the Ministry of Trade and Investment that seeks to open our seaports, airports and other businesses to unbridled foreign interference never before witnessed in the history of the country," Wabba said.
He said that owing to the sensitivity of this policy or its possible fall-outs on our economy, those driving it were directed to consult the Nigerian local business community and organised labour.
"Information reaching us suggests that the relevant business community has not been consulted.
"The drivers of this policy initiative, without consulting the relevant stake holders for possible impact assessment, have perfected a document for the signature of President Muhammadu Buhari at Kigali on the 21 of March.
"We at the Nigeria Labour Congress are shocked by the sheer impunity or blatant lack of consultation in the process that has led to this.
"We are more worried by the probable outcome of this policy initiative if it is given life because of its crippling effect on the local businesses and attendant effects on jobs.
"We find it confounding that at a time nations, including the United States are resorting to protectionism in defence of their local businesses and protection of jobs, we have the audacity to want to fling open our doors, windows and roof tops.
"We have no doubt this policy initiative will spell the death knell of the Nigerian economy.
"Accordingly, we urge Mr. President not to sign this agreement either in Kigali or anywhere.
"We believe our national interest is at stake and nothing should be done to compromise this.
"The African Continental Free Trade Agreement rather than unite Africa, will only divide it the more; rather than enrich Africa will only pauperise it the more," he noted.

Q: jquery.countdown in rails 4 I am having some trouble with jquery.countdown (http://hilios.github.io/jQuery.countdown/)  when pushing it to my production env.
I have a init-script for the countdown that looks like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
    var clock = $('#clock');
    // init jquery.countdown
    clock.countdown(clock.data("time")).on('update.countdown', function(event) {
        var $this = $(this).html(event.strftime('<span>%M</span> min'));
    });
});

and my application.js looks like this:
//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs
//= require turbolinks
//= require jquery.countdown
//= require initCountdown
//= require_tree .

This works like intended on my local env but not on my site. The script is running but when I put a log inside of the countdown-function it doesn't show so it doesn't seem to be running it.
What could be the issue?

A: Binding events to $(document).ready doesn't always work as expected with Turbolinks.
Try this:
$(document).on('ready page:load', function() {
  ...
});

Turbolinks fires the page:load event whenever a new page is loaded (most links to GET requests, for example).

Q: jquery-ui-dialog-extra gives error when used with jQuery-ui-1.9.1 I am using jQuery-ui-dialog-extra to add minimize/maximize/restore buttons to a standard jQuery UI dialog. Its was working perfect when I was using jQuery-ui-1.8.16.Now I have upgraded the jQuery-ui from jQuery-ui-1.8.16 to jQuery-ui-1.9.1 .
Now the problem is when I click 'minimize' button of dialog, then dialog is minimized.But when I click 'maximize' button to restore the size and position the dialog remain as it is and an error is displayed on console: Uncaught Error: no such method '_generatePosition' for draggable widget instance.
For more understanding please look into http://jsfiddle.net/S4LzA/5/
Please let me know how to solve this issue.Thanks in advance.

A: It looks like dialog-extra is trying to call the internal _generatePosition() method of the draggable (note the leading underscore) through the widget bridge:
self.uiDialog.draggable('_generatePosition')

Relying on internal methods can lead to problems when the library is upgraded (because internal methods may change or disappear), but that's not even the issue here. The widget bridge that allows to call methods from the augmented elements does not relay calls to internal methods in the first place. As far I know, that code should not work in jQuery UI 1.8.16 either.
A possible solution would be to call _generatePosition() on the widget instance itself. Try modifying the plugin and changing the code above into:
self.uiDialog.data("ui-draggable")._generatePosition();
