Police in Zimbabwe have arrested 12 poachers of endangered pangolin so far this year and eight of them have already been handed heavy jail sentences, a pangolin protection trust said on Monday. The Tikki Hywood Trust called the clampdown "encouraging".
The poachers were arrested in seven separate cases between January and March. They come from Harare, Nyamapanda in eastern Zimbabwe and Guruve and Kwekwe in central Zimbabwe, the trust said in a statement.

The DP-X1 has two amps and two digital/analog convertors which allow for extreme power and signal control. The double ESS Sabre ES9018K2M DACs and double ESS Sabre 9601K amps make balanced output possible via 2.5 mm output. The DP-X1 is the only player with such an advanced configuration, and the result is unprecedented power and control.
The DP-X1 also has two types of balanced drives: ACG and BTL, for greater stability and clean, crystal clear sound.
Balanced 2.5mm 4-pole output supports the more standard Balanced (BTL) drive as well as the more esoteric ACG (Active Control GND) drive.
ACG drive gives greater stability: increased S/N ratio; greater spatial dimensionality, and clean sound; greater deliniation for lower frequencies in hi-res audio, and overall robust and taut sound. BTL drive supplies increased power.
Power gains and increased sound separation associated with balanced output are repurposed to create increased stability for a clean signal and greater sound clarity, especially compared to unbalanced drive.
MQA is not typical hi-res, a high bit rate or high sample rate audio. It is a completely new and different way of capturing, delivering and reproducing audio performances, and it preserves the magic of the original studio recording in a format that is still small enough to stream.
Turn on "Real-Time DSD Conversion" and the DP-X1 converts music files such as MP3, WAV, and FLAC into DSD-quality audio. Use of oversampling and pushing bit quantization outside the audible spectrum allows for very clear signals. Everything sounds great!
The DP-X1 was designed to support many audio formats. Maxing out at 11.2MHz DSD support, the DP-X1 also supports up to 384kHz/24-bit audio, with support for WAV, FLAC, ALAC, & AIFF.
With its 2.5mm 4-pole balanced output, 3.5mm 3-pole headphone jack, micro USB-B/OTG digital output, and wireless playback options, the DP-X1 offers plenty of ways to enjoy music.
In addition to streaming over Wi-Fi, aptX also makes high quality audio possible over Bluetooth.
With up to 16,384 discrete bands to select from, and the ability to save up to 1,000 EQ profiles, the linear-phase FIR equalizer offers high definition equalization with zero loss in audio quality.
With 32GB of internal storage and dual micro-SDXC card slots, storage can be expanded to 544GB. With up to 16 hours of playback, you can carry an expansive library of hi-res audio and listen for extended periods of time.
OnkyoMusic is a music download service for hi-res audio files. Install the OnkyoMusic app and there is no need to sync with a home computer. Music can be purchased and downloaded directly from the app within the player.
The DP-X1 has a super flexible and intuitive Android platform, and with its fast quad core, it can support heavy processing and many high function apps. The capacitive touch display allows for intuitive use of flicks, taps and scrolling gestures. All icons and physical buttons are positioned for easy operation.
The help you need for your DP-X1.


KHARTOUM – Sudanese President Omar Al-Bashir on Sunday blamed saboteurs, who are enemies of the nation, and some parties that are taking advantage of the demonstrations, while insisting that demonstrators who died in anti-government rallies were not killed by security forces.
"There are some people among the protesters who are killing the demonstrators," Bashir said in a speech broadcast live on state television, without specifying who the culprits were.
He said a doctor who died on Thursday in Burri was not killed by security forces. "The doctor who was killed in Burri was killed by a weapon that did not belong to the army, or NISS, or police," said Bashir. "He was killed by someone from among the demonstrators."
At the same time, he expressed his respect for the youth who demonstrated with the objective of seeking better life conditions. However, he stressed defending Sudan and protecting its security, stability and territorial safety are paramount.
Al-Bashir reaffirmed that reaching power should always be via the ballot box, while emphasizing that it is the youth who are Sudan's future and the state will meet their just demands.
He blamed "intruders" of killing the demonstrators in order to stir anarchy in the country.
In a speech, Al-Bashir said intruders who are hiding among the demonstrators are killing them using weapons, the like of which neither the Sudanese army nor the police possess.
Al-Bashir warned the youth against being used by others having their own agendas. He said the principles for exchange of power have not changed since he came to power.
He said that during investigations, these elements have admitted that they have killed several demonstrators. He reiterated that it is the ballot boxes that decide who should rule. The elections next year are not far and the Sudanese people's choice will be respected, Al-Bashir stressed.
Meanwhile, Chairman of the Joint Command Gen. Dr. Kamal Abdulma'rouf said the armed forces are in their best condition. They are stronger, more consolidated and vigilant against all conspiracies being hatched against Sudan.
On Sunday, Sudanese police fired tear gas at hundreds of protesters planning to march on parliament. Deadly protests, which erupted on Dec. 19 after a government decision to raise the price of bread, have turned into nationwide rallies against Bashir's three decades of rule.
On Sunday, hundreds of protesters attempted to march on parliament in Omdurman, the twin city of Khartoum, but they were quickly confronted by riot police who fired tear gas, witnesses said.
Protesters then staged simultaneous rallies in different neighborhoods of Omdurman in an attempt to gather again for the march, a witness said, but they were unable to.


Light Photography | ..::CHANGE is INEVITABLE::..
After entering into manual mode and understanding a bit of photography basics, I turned exploring something really creative and exciting in photography.
What it takes to take a light writing?
– Exposure: A long exposure time is a basic requirement for your camera. My Sony DSC-HX1 provides enough long exposure time, 30 sec.
– Light Source: A light emitting source.
– A dark place, really dark :).
– Have your ISO least and aperture value higher. Play a bit with settings, you'll figure it out.
Also you have to imagine a virtual surface and sense of in-focus area, to capture a perfect light writing sample.
Well that's me in the back… and that's why proper darkness is required.
Also, do remember, camera will capture a mirror image and you'll have to do basic editing!

William Carl Gans, Jr., 1949-2011
Attorney and Mediator
By Eric Gans
Tue Aug 30, 2011 | 6:00am
W. Carl Gans, a prominent Santa Barbara attorney and mediator, died unexpectedly of a heart attack on Tuesday, August 2, at his home in Rancho Embarcadero, north of Goleta.
Carl was born in Wenatchee, Washington, the eldest child of Bill and Bucky Gans—he an engineer and former naval officer from Pennsylvania, and she the youngest child of the Buckner homesteading family of Stehekin, Washington. When Carl was six, Bill took a job with a mining company that saw the family move first to Mexico, and later Brazil, where Carl and his two siblings (Judy and Phil) spent many of their formative years. After attending the Principia Upper School in St. Louis, Missouri, Carl earned a track scholarship to the University of Missouri.
At a church youth conference in 1969, 20-year-old Carl met a pretty young coed from Southern California, Deborah "Debi" Wells, and the two wrote to each other during her extended trip through Europe. On her way home, Debi visited Carl, and on their seventh day of dating, after careful consideration, Carl proposed marriage, and Debi accepted.
After transferring to UC Santa Barbara in 1970, Carl and Debi made their home in the Santa Barbara area and never left. Over the next 41 years, the couple raised four children, saw the births of two grandchildren, and ran a large and joyous household together.
Carl earned his BS and MS degrees in mechanical engineering and began his career at Delco Electronics in Goleta, where he worked for 20 years. As he reached his mid thirties, however, he discovered he had a gift for helping people resolve their differences. True to form, despite the demands of working full-time and raising four rambunctious children with Debi, Carl decided to earn his law degree. He attended night classes at the Santa Barbara College of Law, earned his JD and admission to the bar in 1989, and never looked back.
For the next 22 years of his life, Carl developed a family law and mediation-focused practice in Santa Barbara in close quarters with his great friends Chip Oxton and Georgia Staab, and their loving and loyal staff. For the rest of his life, his professional relationships with his partners, staff, colleagues, and clients would inspire profound happiness in Carl, and a wonderful sense of accomplishment, prompting frequent declarations that he would never completely retire.
An intensely religious man, Carl was an elder at El Montecito Presbyterian Church, where he taught classes in biblically-based conflict resolution. He was also an active member of Peacemaker Ministries and developed a portion of his legal practice around Christian Conciliation.
With close friends and family always near, Carl spent the last years of his life in a glow of personal and professional contentment: working, traveling the world, playing golf, gardening, tending to his chickens, and attending church. On Tuesday, Carl spent his final moments holding the hand of the woman he loved—his adoring wife, Debi. A loving husband, father, grandfather, son, and brother, Carl is survived by Debi and their four children (and spouses), Lisl (Rhodri), Heidi (fiancé John), Will (Rebecca), and Eric (Kristin); two grandchildren (Rhiannon and Tryfan); his mother, Bucky; his sister, Judy, and brother, Phil; and an enormous community of extended family, dear friends, and respected colleagues and clients. He will be sorely missed.
In lieu of flowers, donations would be appreciated to Peacemaker Ministries, the Buckner Homestead Heritage Foundation, and Girls, Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara, where Carl was a boardmember for 20 years.

TV REVIEW: TWIN PEAKS – SEASON 03 – EPISODE 17

Cooper arrives in Twin Peaks.
Mark Frost, David Lynch >
Kyle MacLachlan, Jay Aaseng, Dana Ashbrook
by Mary Cox
"Part 17: The past dictates the future."
A hell of a lot happened in the penultimate episode of Twin Peaks. Cooper has finally defeated Bad Coop with the help of our literal Hand of God character, Freddie. Naido is revealed to be the real Diane, who has an emotional reunion with our favorite FBI agent.
Here's the thing: I'm still not convinced that anything that everything or anything this season has actually "happened." When looking over how everything has gone down this season, and especially when we consider the superimposed face of Cooper as he says, "We live inside a dream," directly to the audience, it seems like Lynch is kind of pulling a Mulholland Drive here. Everything has been too easy, or too convenient for these characters. Lynch is mocking our need for a cute and tied together ending with the scene at the Twin Peaks sheriff station where all our beloved characters, old and new, are uniting or reuniting at last.
Audrey's appearance at the Roadhouse in last week's episode, where the final scene was her appearing in an odd, white room, has still gone unexplained. There's a considerable amount of unfinished business regarding the Fireman's prophecy of "Richard and Linda, two birds, one stone," which can only really
point to the mysterious electricity bolder that killed Richard Horne last episode.
Part of me thinks that Season 3 of Twin Peaks is a response to the demand for a continuation of the series. I've had this running theory that Lynch is critical of the concept of nostalgia, which is why Agent Cooper spent almost the entirety of this season as Dougie, and why the heart-warming Twin Peaks reunion scene was shadowed with doubt and unease. Lynch leaves us with the pinnacle of self-satisfied nostalgic rehashing as Cooper fulfills his ultimate goal of trying to save Laura Palmer herself.
However, as revealed by Sarah Palmer's outburst, Cooper isn't the only agent in this game any more. Is Sarah actually possessed by the entity Judy? Are Judy and the Jumping Man one in the same? Where the hell is Audrey, and is any of this actually happening

Integration issues halt Vic Police's LINK project
By Liz Tay on Apr 20, 2011 1:18PM
Five-year-old project needs $100m extra funding.
Victoria Police has once again delayed its five-year database replacement project after identifying a need for an additional $100 million and two years of work.
The LINK project commenced in mid-2006 and was intended to replace crime reporting database LEAP, which had been in place since 1993.
Police initially expected implementation to be completed this year, but announced today that the project would be halted indefinitely, after having spent $45 million to date with a further $11 million committed.
The decision followed two project reviews that revealed that "considerably more time and money" would be required for a successful implementation.
Victoria Police offered a similar explanation last March, when it delayed the project for six months.
Deputy Commissioner Kieran Walshe today said that Police had underestimated the scale and cost of the LINK project in its original business case.
Walshe said the LINK project team was challenged with "close to 200 interfaces with 25 existing applications", reiterating claims that there were no problems with off-the-shelf LINK software purchased from Canadian vendor Niche Technology.
A police spokesman told iTnews that the agency would "shortly be in discussions with Niche Technology regarding what the next step in the project are".
Police planned to develop a new business case over the next 12 months, and report back to Government as part of next year's budget process.
The LINK project was introduced partially to address security and inappropriate access issues associated with the current database.
Walshe said today that the current LEAP system was "operating adequately" and Police would "continue to enforce our stringent security measures regarding the appropriate access of LEAP data".
Updated at 9.55m, 21 April to include information on LINK's cost to date and the spokesman's comment about Niche.

Mothering without my Mother is a journal of my honest mothering journey.
Each entry is written to her.
My Mother died at the young age of thirty-nine, seven months after a stage four breast cancer diagnosis.
Jenifer was young and beautiful and vibrant and a lover of her family. She stayed home with her four children and maintained a happy marriage and home; we were all the center of her life.
Following in her footsteps, I started a family young and am now staying home with my first child, Everett. I'm the happiest I've ever been, but mothering without your Mother is hard.
My days are filled with love, frustration, questions, happiness, sadness, lessons–these are the things I write to her about. I can't pick up the phone and call her, so writing is what allows me to feel the mother/daughter connection I so desperately need.
I want to share my journey with every other woman and Mother out there, as open and honestly as I can.


Referred to as Doctor Death, Jayant Patel, who you may have guessed, is an Indian gentleman whose lasse, devil-may-care operating techniques are now beginning to come to light have shown that American records have confirmed he was responsible for at least three deaths. I admit a small very number indeed, an amount that one may not worry too much about, unless of course it was a member of your family, particularly your wife.
Whilst at the Bunderberg base hospital in Queensland it is strongly suspected that his tally so far could total 20 SOULS. His complication rate for operations was 30% above normal and that at least 14 of the doctor's cases had involved major complications. As a result of the disclosure as many as 400 former patients are now being tracked, I will repeat that figure....400 ex patients.
A nurse who was a whistle blower said she was appalled at his operating techniques and complained to her superiors but no action was taken, and when she confronted Dr Patel was told to co-operate and do as she was told.
It doesn't get any better I am afraid. Just when traumatized staff at Bundaberg Hospital thought they had seen the worst of Patel's botch-ups from perforating bowels during routine surgery to amputating toes without anaesthetic- something sickening happened to raise their anxiety.
A patient needed an operation to investigate suspected bowel cancer. But things had gone awry. The theatre staff rushed out urgently looking for mouth swabs. This lunatic had somehow flushed the wrong end of the bowel. Faeces were coming out of the patient's mouth. You heard right folks.
Dr Patel, a heavy smoker who flagged his presence around the hospital wards because of the strength of his cologne had admirers. They included the theatre nurses and the hospital's senior staff specialists Kees Nydam, an Asian Lady, who remained adamant even after the disclosures, that he was an excellent surgeon "I would have no hesitation of having this highly qualified surgeon operate on any member of my family or myself" Dr. Patel the director of surgery was on a package of $200,000 a year!
It appears that Dr. Patel had arranged for the bodies to be prematurely released to the undertakers to ensure they would not be examined by pathologists. The release of the bodies being contingent on there being a valid death certificate, in other cases he would falsify the death certificates by wrongly stating that the death was caused from conditions such as malnutrition, when it could in fact have been linked to a blunder in surgery.
The smiling plump swarthy looking Indian was often see at an Indian Curry Bazaar and Take-away in Bargara Nr Bundaberg. It was here Dr Patel an ethnic Indian who went to medical college in Gujarat before undertaking further training in the U.S. In Oregon Dr. Patel was ordered to cease any surgery involving the pancreas, any resection of the liver and constructions of ileoanal pouches.
He was also required to obtain a second opinion on complicated surgical cases. He surrendered his medical licence after he was caught trying to practise in New York State even though barred. In early 2003 he left New York for Bundaberg State Hospital in Queensland as its Director of Surgery!
The standards of the Medical Board of Queensland were once so lax that no reference checks are sought to verify the qualification of overseas-trained doctors, similar to the U.K When his incompetence finally came to light after the deaths of the first three people, He fled to the U.S where he is living in a million-dollar mansion in the leafy suburbs of Portland, Oregon. The Australian authorities are now seeking his extradition.
So the moral of this tragic tale is when a masked Asian doctor is looming over you and is about to bury his scalpel in your pancreas or other sensitive nether regions it might be a timely suggestion to inquire of him where did he obtain his medical qualifications, was it through a Delhi or a Karachi correspondence school, or over the internet?
At first glance it might appear on the surface to be childishly picky, but at the conclusion of your operation it will make a world of difference to your general mien when on waking up from the anaesthetic being greeted with a hot cup of tea and a chocolate digestive and not being prematurely introduced to your maker.A commentator noted that some Asian Medical qualifications are about on par with our first aid requirements.

GYERYONG, South Korea, Sept. 29 (Korea Bizwire) – The final rehearsal for the October 1 Armed Forces Day took place Thursday at Gyeryongdae, South Korea's main military compound.
Contrary to popular belief, the Republic of Korea Armed Forces Day does not celebrate the day that the Korean military was first established, but rather the day that South Korea reclaimed the 38th parallel (which was the dividing line between the two Koreas) during the Korean War, after being cornered south of the Nakdong River following the North's surprise invasion.
On October 2, the annual Gyeryong Military Culture Festival will take off for a five-day run at the Gyeryongdae complex and other locations in Gyeryong. For more information about the festival, visit http://www.m-festival.org.

Q: How to hide zero values in bar3 plot in MATLAB I've got a 2-D histogram (the plot is 3D - several histograms graphed side by side) that I've generated with the    bar3 plot command. However, all the zero values show up as flat squares in the x-y plane. Is there a way I can prevent MATLAB from displaying the values? I already tried replacing all zeros with NaNs, but it didn't change anything about the plot. Here's the code I've been experimenting with:
x1=normrnd(50,15,100,1); %generate random data to test code
x2=normrnd(40,13,100,1);
x3=normrnd(65,12,100,1);

low=min([x1;x2;x3]);
high=max([x1;x2;x3]);
y=linspace(low,high,(high-low)/4); %establish consistent bins for histogram
z1=hist(x1,y);
z2=hist(x2,y);
z3=hist(x3,y);
z=[z1;z2;z3]';
bar3(z)

As you can see, there are quite a few zero values on the plot. Closing the figure and re-plotting after replacing zeros with NaNs seems to change nothing:
close
z(z==0)=NaN;
bar3(z)

A: Here is an example that shows how to hide bars with zero-values. We start with a normal BAR3 plot:
x = 1:7;
Y = jet(numel(x));
h = bar3(x,Y,'detached');
xlabel x; ylabel y; zlabel z; box on;

Note that the variable h contains an array of surface handles (3 in this case, one for each "group" of bars. The groups correspond to the columns of the Y matrix, each represented by a different color).
And now the code to hide zero values:
for i=1:numel(h)
    %# get the ZData matrix of the current group
    Z = get(h(i), 'ZData');

    %# row-indices of Z matrix. Columns correspond to each rectangular bar
    rowsInd = reshape(1:size(Z,1), 6,[]);

    %# find bars with zero height
    barsIdx = all([Z(2:6:end,2:3) Z(3:6:end,2:3)]==0, 2);

    %# replace their values with NaN for those bars
    Z(rowsInd(:,barsIdx),:) = NaN;

    %# update the ZData
    set(h(i), 'ZData',Z)
end

Explanation:
For each group of bars, a surface graphic object is created (with handle stored in h(i)). It's Z-coordinates matrix ZData is represented as a 6*N-by-4 matrix (same thing for XData, YData, and CData matrices), where N is the number of rectangular bars in each group or 7 in the example above.
This way each rectangle is represented with 6x4 matrices (one for each of X/Y/Z coordinates). For example the coordinates of one such rectangle would look like:
>> xx = get(h(3),'XData'); yy = get(h(3),'YData'); zz = get(h(3),'ZData');

>> xx(1:6,:)
ans =
          NaN          2.6          3.4          NaN
          2.6          2.6          3.4          3.4
          2.6          2.6          3.4          3.4
          NaN          2.6          3.4          NaN
          NaN          2.6          3.4          NaN
          NaN          NaN          NaN          NaN

>> yy(1:6,:)
ans =
          NaN          0.6          0.6          NaN
          0.6          0.6          0.6          0.6
          1.4          1.4          1.4          1.4
          NaN          1.4          1.4          NaN
          NaN          0.6          0.6          NaN
          NaN          NaN          NaN          NaN

>> zz(1:6,:)
ans =
          NaN            0            0          NaN
            0            1            1            0
            0            1            1            0
          NaN            0            0          NaN
          NaN            0            0          NaN
          NaN          NaN          NaN          NaN

The second column of each traces the points along the left face, the third column traces the points along the right face, and when the two are connected would draw 4 faces of the rectangle:
>> surface(xx(1:6,2:3), yy(1:6,2:3), zz(1:6,2:3), cc(1:6,2:3))
>> view(3)

The first and last columns would draw the two remaining faces by closing the sides of the rectangle.
All such matrices are concatenated as one tall matrix, and the rectangles are all drawn using a single surface object. This is achieved by using NaN values to separate the different parts, both inside the points of the same rectangle, and in-between the difference rectangles.
So what the above code does is to look for rectangles where the Z-height is zero, and replace all its values with NaN values which effectively tells MATLAB not to draw the surfaces formed by those points.

A: One solution is to modify the graphics objects created by bar3. First, you have to get the handles returned from bar3:
h = bar3(z);

In your case, h will be a 3-element vector of handles, one for each set of colored bars. The following code should then make the bins with counts of zero invisible:
for i = 1:numel(h)
  index = logical(kron(z(:, i) == 0, ones(6, 1)));
  zData = get(h(i), 'ZData');
  zData(index, :) = nan;
  set(h(i), 'ZData', zData);
end

And here's an illustration (with obligatory free-hand circles):

How it works...
If your vector of bin counts is N-by-1, then bar3 will plot 6*N rectangular patches (i.e. the 6 faces of a cuboid for each bin). The 'ZData' property for each set of patch objects in h will therefore be (6*N)-by-4, since there are 4 corners for each rectangular face. Each cluster of 6 rows of the 'ZData' property is therefore a set of z-coordinates for the 6 faces of one bin.
The above code first creates a logical vector with ones everywhere the bin count equals 0, then replicates each element of this vector 6 times using the kron function. This becomes an index for the rows of the 'ZData' property, and this index is used to set the z-coordinates to nan for the patches of empty bins. This will cause the patches to not be rendered.

EDIT:
Here's a slightly modified version of the code that makes it more general by fetching the bar height from the 'ZData' property of the plotted bars, so all that's needed for it to work are the handles returned from bar3. I've also wrapped the code in a function (sans error and input checking):
function remove_empty_bars(hBars)
  for iSeries = 1:numel(hBars)
    zData = get(hBars(iSeries), 'ZData');  % Get the z data
    index = logical(kron(zData(2:6:end, 2) == 0, ones(6, 1)));  % Find empty bars
    zData(index, :) = nan;                 % Set the z data for empty bars to nan
    set(hBars(iSeries), 'ZData', zData);   % Update the graphics objects
  end
end

A: My problem was not zero values, but NaN values (which are converted into zero values inside of bar3).
I wanted to keep displaying elements with values zero, but not the elements with value nan.
I adjusted the code slightly, and it worked perfectly:
for i = 1:numel(h)
  index = logical(kron(isnan(z(:,i)),ones(6,1)));
  zData = get(h(i),'ZData');
  zData(index,:) = nan;
  set(h(i),'ZData',zData);
end

Thanks!

Q: Algebraically manipulating equations give a different answer than the true answer I know the title isn't that specific but honestly, I can't think of a specific title that isn't the whole problem.
Anyways.
Force is directly proportional to mass.
Force is directly proportional to acceleration.
Therefore, $\frac{force}{mass*acceleration} = k$
Ans this is true.
But……
$$\frac{force}{mass} = constant_1$$
$$\frac{acceleration}{force} = constant_2$$
Multiplying these equation gives us:
$$\frac{acceleration}{mass} = constant_3$$
And surely this isn't true. Acceleration and mass are not directly proportional. Am I making a mistake?

A: When you say two variables, $x$ and $y$, are directly proportional, this means that when $x$ experiences some change, $y$ experiences that same change times a constant. However, this constant is dependent on other variables that may not be identified.
Your claim that $\frac{force}{mass}=constant_1$ is dependent on the fact that any other variable is not modified. Specifically, the $constant_1$ is only known to be constant wrt variations in $force$ or $mass$. We cannot claim that $constant_1$ is independent of some other variable, say $acceleration$
In fact, we know that $constant_1$ is indeed also directly proportional to $acceleration$.

1 dead in Louisiana 3-vehicle accident
A recent accident in Destrehan, Louisiana involving three vehicles, including an ambulance, resulted in one fatality, an article of 4WWL reported on August 23.
According to reports, the three-vehicle accident on August 22 happened on U.S. 61 in the vicinity of LA 626. An ambulance of St. Charles Parish Hospital reportedly veered to the left side of the road after striking a vehicle. The impact of the initial collision ended up involving a third vehicle, driven by Marva Jackson, 62. Police told reports that Marva's vehicle caught fire and she succumbed to her injuries while being treated. She had not been wearing a seatbelt. The ambulance's sirens and emergency lights were activated and it was believed to be responding to a call when the accident happened. Authorities are still investigating the crash.
Lake Charles attorney [firm-name], expresses his deep thoughts to the family and friends who are saddened by the untimely loss of their loved one.

David L. Petersen
The Old Testament presents a world full of compelling characters. Personages like Jacob, David, Jeremiah, Sarah, Miriam, and Abigail continue to capture the imagination of readers, so much so that the Old Testament has been understood as literature that focuses on characters as they carry out their lives in dialogue with God. That same Old Testament, however, conveys something less visible but equally important: a world of social realities which constitutes the matrix in which these characters act and which, in powerful ways, determines what can and cannot happen to them. There are, in fact, two social worlds of the Old Testament. There is a social world in the Old Testament, namely, the network of relationships depicted in the text, and a social world which produced the Old Testament, the "real" world of ancient Israel. Though obviously related, these worlds are not always identical.
Old Testament scholars have long recognized the importance of this latter social world. In recent years, however, there has been a virtual explosion of research devoted to the social world of ancient Israel. For example, scholars have recently argued that it is better to use the model of peasant culture than that of nomadism to understand certain features of early Israelite society. Further, it seems preferable to view Saul using the notion of a chief rather than a king. Finally, the very idea of family has now been subjected to a rigorous analysis that has distinguished the household unit (those who dwell together) from the lineage (those who share an ancestor) as distinct entities. Such redefinitions represent a refinement in social analysis which is a part of contemporary study of the social world of ancient Israel.
Whether one focuses on the social world depicted in the Old Testament or existing behind the Old Testament, it is clear that there are numerous subsidiary worlds: the world of genders (the different worlds of male and female behavior), the world of the household, the world of the extended family, the world of the local community (whether city or village), and the world of the state. And it is also clear that these worlds vary over time and according to region. The chronological period that has received special attention in social world studies is the time just before and then during the inception of monarchy. There has been a predominant regional focus as well, on the so-called central highlands, in part because it is relatively easy to identify material cultural remains of the aforementioned period in this area. This world was palpably different from that of the household located in Josiah's Jerusalem, from Ezekiel's house which was not far from Mesopotamian Nippur, or from Nehemiah's dwelling in rebuilt Jerusalem. The variables of region, chronology, and size of social unit require one to speak of various social worlds that lie behind the Old Testament.

Placing things in context is what contemporary students do best. What they do not do is judge. […] This refusal to judge or take offense can be taken as a positive sign, suggesting tolerance and broadmindedness. But there is a broadmindedness so roomy that it is indistinguishable from indifference, and it is lethal. For while the fine arts can survive a hostile or ignorant public, or even a fanatically prudish one, they cannot long survive an indifferent one.

IPC VRA lecture by Shinji Miyagawa on "Power, Pilferage and the Urban Poor: A Metro Manila Case"
This study contributes to literature on the informal activities of the impoverished in developing countries. The researcher asks whether strict implementation of laws is the best approach to ensuring compliance or conformity. To answer this question, the study focuses on forms of electricity use in Metro Manila informal settlements and analyzes how these activities become legitimate. Using semi-structured interviews of over 300 households, the study provides a detailed account of three forms of electricity use, namely jumper (stealing from utility wire), submeter (resold by utility contractors), and utility contract.
Shinji Miyagawa is a PhD candidate in International Relations at the University of Tokyo and is currently a Visiting Research Associate at the Institute of Philippine Culture. His area of interest is political economy of developing countries.

2016 has been a vintage year for Elton John; he released his 33rd studio album Wonderful Crazy Night to rapturous applause, and wowed audiences across the UK with his epic live show, which culminated in a headline performance at Hyde Park in London for BBC Radio 2. Last weekend he also performed at the annual Apple Music Festival. From Longleat to Leicester, Edinburgh to Exeter, Elton John brought his unmistakable showmanship to the stage. The Guardian exclaimed how the Meadowbank Stadium show was "a hit parade of peerless pomp", with the Herald observing "the maestro's unbridled raison d'etre of showbiz classicist… sits somewhere between Liberace and Mozart".
Now fans in Lancashire can look forward to what will be one of the music events of the year as Elton John announces a show at Ewood Park on Saturday 10th June, as part of his worldwide Wonderful Crazy Night Tour. Taking to the stage, Elton will perform songs from his latest studio album 'Wonderful Crazy Night', as well as his most-loved hits from his stellar career.
Elton has regularly performed in the North West, including 13 shows in Liverpool, one show in Bolton, and 25 shows in Manchester since his first at Free Trade Hall in 1971, but this will be his first show in Blackburn.

Consistent use of the Colorado School of Mines graphic identity contributes to our image of a strong, unified school with multiple programs, services and departments that share a common mission.
Please refer to the Mines Graphic Standards Guide and the Branding 101 one-page guide for information and specifications regarding graphics usage.
Everything that is produced at Mines must include the logo. Administrative and academic departments should use the logo that includes the contemporary triangle plus wordmark, with or without the tagline. The horizontal, full-color version with the tagline is the preferred format; other versions can be used when there are space constraints.
Use only one version of the logo per piece (with the exception of address blocks on pieces that are mailed).
Leave clear space around the logo that is equal the height of the wordmark when using the horizontal logo or half the height of MINES in the stacked version of the logo. For example, if the wordmark portion of the signature/logo is 1 inch tall, allow at least one half-inch of clear space around the entire signature/logo.
Be sure there is sufficient contrast between the logo and the background; all elements should be easily readable.
Use high-resolution files for print applications (EPS versions).
Constrain the proportions of the logo when increasing and decreasing the image size so the logo is not skewed or distorted.
Use transparent PNG files when placing the logo on a background in documents, spreadsheets and presentations.
Use 200 DPI graphics and photos in Outlook, Word, Excel and PPT to ensure print quality.
The triangle can be used on its own only in limited applications. Email logos@mines.edu for permission prior to printing.
Email logos@mines.edu with questions about logo formats and usage and for additional logo file types.
Request for approval of logo use by all other administrative units should go to logos@mines.edu.
Requests for approval of logo use for Blaster, the M and the Orediggers script logo should go to Tim Flynn, Associate Athletic Director for Communications, flynn@mines.edu.
Use of the logos by academic units should go through the communication managers in the colleges. See the contact page for a for complete contact information.
Email signature templates are also available.
Typography is both a verbal and a visual communication. People see an overall graphic pattern before they begin to read content, so designers should choose fonts to fit different communications according to their messages and designs.
Gotham is the primary recommended font for Mines publications. Gotham Book is suggested for body copy.
The simplicity of the letterforms allows the font to be easily read in large amounts of small text. Although this font is simple and clean, it has some unique elements that keep it contemporary and original.
Campus communicators who frequently develop Mines materials — online or print — should purchase licenses for Gotham from Hoefler & Frere-Jones at www.typography.com.
Other appropriate fonts that can be used in text documents, letters, spreadsheets, forms and email are: Arial, Calibri, Avenir Next and Century Gothic.

Holidays looking bright at Streb household after second PGA Tour victory
December 11, 2020 December 11, 2020 Ken MacLeod
Like and Share this post
By Ken MacLeod
The holidays are going to be a bit merrier around the Robert Streb household in Kansas City after the 33-year-old PGA Tour veteran and Chickasha native earned his second tour victory Nov. 22 at the RSM Classic.
Sure, the $1,188,000 paycheck comes in handy when buying presents for his wife and two young children, but the victory brings much more than money. It assures Streb of a full schedule for 2021, including appearances in the Masters, the PGA Championship, the Players Championship and World Golf Championship events. It keeps his card for two years and gives three-year exemptions into certain events, including the Arnold Palmer Invitational, the Memorial and the WGC events.
For the last three years, none of that could be taken for granted.
"It changes everything," Streb told Golf Oklahoma this week. "I don't have to wait and see what I'm going to get in to. Last year was a tough year, but because of the pandemic they extended my status and I was fortunate to be able to take advantage of that.
"Now I can set my schedule with the big events and some of my favorite events and concentrate on getting back to being a top 50 player. I can play when I'm playing well. Sometimes you get to chasing your tail a bit with the schedule."
Streb, 33, won the RSM Classic at Sea Island Golf Club in St. Simons, Ga., for the first time in 2015. He continued to play solidly in 2016 and 2017, making the FedEx Cup playoffs both years, but since then his highlights have been more sporadic. Most of them have come when his back was against the wall in terms of keeping his playing privileges.
In 2018 he had the first major slump of his professional career and had to go to the Korn Ferry Tour Finals for a chance to keep his card. He immediately won at the Scarlet Course at Ohio State University.
He played somewhat better in 2019, but again had to go to the KFT Finals. He responded with a fifth place finish in Columbus and again earned his status by being one of the top 25 finishers in the Finals.
"I got myself in a few more corners than I would have liked, but I did manage to get out of them," Streb said. "It does make you ask yourself why am I getting in these situations. Hopefully I can now get on a nice run and stay out here a while."
"In 2018 his swing was just off," said Tosh Hayes, Streb's longtime instructor who is the director of junior instruction at Oak Tree Country Club and coach of Oklahoma Christian. "In 2019 it was better, but we just missed a lot of cuts by a shot or two.
"This win does so much for him. The biggest emotion for me watching was not shock or surprise, but relief. It validates that all the work he's been doing is good work. It's good to see Robert get paid off for him continuing to believe and trust and work so hard. He never panicked and kept fighting through everything that was going on."
No one was happier for Streb, the two-time Oklahoma Open champion, than OGA Executive Director Mark Felder. Streb came back to play in the Open last summer when his schedule was open that week.
"It just shows you so much about his character that he would come back and support us," Felder said. "As far as I'm concerned he's one of the best guys we've met. I had him pegged when he was 14, he was just so polite and gracious, you didn't know if you were talking to a junior golfer or an investment banker. We're thrilled for him."
Streb , who played high school golf at Edmond North before going to Kansas State, put on a clinic of both ball striking and putting in his recent victory. He only needed a tap-in after nearly holing out from the fairway on the second playoff hole against Kevin Kisner.
A shot like that would normally have sent a gallery into a frenzy, but of course there haven't been fans at events since March.
"It's really quiet out there," Streb said. "Not that all the events are super crowded, but usually there's a fair amount of people. With no noise, you don't know what anyone else is doing when you're coming down the stretch. Then again, it makes it easier to stick to what you want to do."
Streb has outfitted his basement with a Foresight launch monitor to keep sharp during the time off when it's too cold to play and practice at his favorite Kansas City haunts, Lake Quivira Country Club and Wolf Creek Golf Club in Olathe. He will be off until the Sony Open in Hawaii Jan. 14-17.
"The kids are really excited about Christmas," he said. "This is the fun age."
With the perks a hard-earned PGA Tour victory brings, dad's pretty excited about it as well.

How quality in waterways changes from season to season
By Kay Vandette
The quality of different waterways can vary from season to season due to microbial communities that thrive in different conditions. A fisherman from Pennsylvania State University set out to investigate these changes more thoroughly.
Zachary Weagly, a Penn State University graduate, and a team of researchers tested three freshwater sites around the Blue Marsh watershed in Pennsylvania over several years to track changes in water quality.
"Zach came to me because he is an avid fisherman and our campus abuts a tributary of the Schuylkill River, Tulpehocken Creek," said Tami Mysilwiec, an associate professor of biology at Penn State. "When he went fishing he noticed changes in the water and the fish at various times."
The team collected water from a creek near agricultural land, a lake with an artificial dam, and an area downstream surrounded by industrial complexes.
The water samples were analyzed with Biolog Ecoplates, which can test for 31 different chemicals that contain carbon and show what bacteria are present in the water.
Microbial communities have recognizable reactions on the plates, which allowed the researchers to record changes in bacteria in the water.
"The three sites are in three different environmental areas," said Mysilwiec. "The water quality changes on a seasonal basis, which leads to the question of what happens to potential pathogens."
The researchers focused on the concentrations of E. coli and Enterococci bacteria present in the three sites at different times of the year.
Gene sequencing using the 16S rRNA gene also helped provide an overview of the disease-causing bacteria in the water.
There were seasonal differences in water quality across all three sites. During the fall and mid-spring months, the researchers documented an increase in nitrate and phosphate levels. Microbial communities varied from site to site.
Colonies of bacteria increased in the summer months, and peak levels were recorded when human use of the waterways was at its highest.
E. coli and Enterococci bacteria were over acceptable levels in the lake the majority of the time, the researchers found.
"We found that the lake near the survey was over the acceptable amounts 93% of the time," said Jill M. Felker, a researcher on the project. "We also found that depending on the season, E. coli could be 36 percent higher than previously measured and Enterococci could be 86 percent higher than previously measured."
The study findings were reported at the annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America in Louisville, Kentucky.

The village was dreary, the day the Prophet died. We all stood around doing nothing, waiting in tense silence for our names to be announced. The dying Prophet was experiencing his last visions. The last of his Blessed were to be called.
The Prophet called for the Johnsons first. He said their newborn would get lost when she would reach the age of seven. "Find her near the oak tree" he mumbled, his words almost inaudible. The Johnsons emerged from the Prophet's cottage happy; they had been Blessed. The stable boy was called next. He was Blessed with a suggestion: he should visit his mother before it would be too late. He rode away from the village immediately, his horse galloping into the distance. The Prophet passed out for some time, and the village petrified. Caregivers crammed into his small bedroom, applying every herb and potion on his frail old body, struggling to keep him alive.
The Prophet woke up in a panicked frenzy, uttering things too quickly to understand. He threw himself out of bed with a determined burst of energy and rushed to the cottage door, his legs shaking underneath him. He ran across the street to take my hands in his, the color draining from his fingers. I stared into his clear, blind eyes, that reflected an intense sadness that couldn't be described.
The Prophet crumbled to the ground, dead.

Happy Friday to yinz and welcome to the second NFL playoff weekend of the 2019 season.
The Pittsburgh Steelers didn't make any moves related to their coaching staff this past week. Will they before next weekend? We'll see, but with the start of the college all-star games right around the corner, odds are good they will want any and all changes to be done soon.
Steelers team president Art Rooney II will likely hold his end-of-the-season media session within the next week or two. We should learn a thing or two from that when it happens.
The Senior Bowl is almost here and this year we'll have both Alex Kozora and Daniel Valente down in Mobile, AL covering the week for the site. As you've probably a already noticed by now, we have started our annual draft profiles of players on the site.
It's been a crazy week for me so far and especially the last 24 hours. We bought another newer vehicle Thursday night and just sold the one we are replicating Friday afternoon. That has created a lot of running around on my part, but it's all good.
As usual, I have five questions for yinz to answer during this quiet Friday night and I look forward to reading all responses.
Have a safe and happy weekend and enjoy all the games. Thank you for visiting the site as well.
Peace and love, peace and love!
1 – Will the AFC or NFC quarterbacks have the most combined passing yards in the four Divisional Round playoff games this weekend?
2 – Over/under 1.5 defensive touchdowns scored in the four Divisional Round playoff games this weekend?
3 – Name the winners of the four NFL Divisional Round games that will take place this weekend. (Must get all four correct to receive credit)
Minnesota Vikings at San Francisco 49ers
Tennessee Titans at Baltimore Ravens
Houston Texans at Kansas City Chiefs
Seattle Seahawks at Green Bay Packers
4 – Over/under 83.5 rushing yards for Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson versus the Titans?
5 – Last weekend a total of 146-points was scored in the four Wildcard games. Will the total points scored in the four Divisional Round games this weekend be greater than or less than 146?
Recap of 2019 NFL Wildcard Friday Night 5 Questions
Question 1: It's Friday and so far, the Steelers have made no coaching changes. 83.7% of Steelers Depot respondents predicted that the Steelers would not make any changes by today. Last year, Mike Tomlin announced that the Steelers weren't renewing Joey Porter's contract on January 4th. The Steelers made other changes including Shaun Sarrett promoted to replace Munchak, Eddie Faulkner hired to replace James Saxon, and Teryl Austin added as "Senior Defensive Assistant/Secondary" coach. Adrian Klemm filled the offensive line assistant vacancy created by Sarrett's promotion. Sadly, Ray Sherman came on board as an emergency hire when Darryl Drake passed away. So, there may be more changes, just later than last year.
Question 2: Oddsmakers still favor LSU over Clemson. The spread has dropped to 5.5 points. Regardless, 81.4% of respondents believe that LSU will cover a 6.5-point spread. We'll find out Monday night.
Question 3: Twelve teams had a possibility of winning this year's Super Bowl going into the Wildcard weekend. Steelers Depot respondents gave at least one vote to eight different teams winning the Super Bowl. Respondents favored the Baltimore Ravens with 34.0% the vote. The Kansas City Chiefs were next at 22.7%. The top seeded NFC San Francisco 49ers garnered only 13.7% of the vote. The Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings gained just one vote apiece. The Tennessee Titans got two. The New Orleans Saints (13.7%) and New England Patriots (6.8%) are out. So, 79.5% of respondents still have a shot at picking up a point for this question. Might prove important if it's a close race.
Question 4: 81.4% of respondents picked the Seattle Seahawks to beat the Philadelphia Eagles. A very narrow majority of 51.2% picked the Houston Texans over the Buffalo Bills. Just 37.2% got a point for picking the Titans over the Patriots. The big upset was the Saints-Vikings game. A-ROC was the only respondent to pick the Vikings. That result cost anyone from a chance of winning the 5-point weekly bonus points. No one swept the picks.
Question 5: The first three wildcard games totaled 120 points scored. So, the Seahawks and Eagles just needed to score 24 points to match the 144 points scored in last year's four wildcard games. The Eagles kicked a 38-yard field goal with 2:53 left in the game to exceed last year's total by just two points. 62.8% of respondents picked up a point by saying more points would be scored in this year's wildcard games and picked up a point.
No one hit the five-point weekly bonus, but 21 respondents just missed the cut by one question (just questions one, four and five counted toward the bonus).
Here are the consensus responses of Steelers Depot respondents compared to the correct answers:
Questions Steelers Change Coaches? LSU covers 6.5 over Clemson Super Bowl Winner Wildcard Winners 144 Points Scored in WC Games

Q: Get records from a specific month using SQLite How would I write a SQLite query to select all records from a specific month?  My dates are stored as Unix timestamps.
PHP code is allowed in your solution if it's required. SQLite2-compatible queries only, please. :)

A: If you want an efficient query then you should use BETWEEN:
SELECT *
FROM Table1
WHERE date BETWEEN $start AND $end

Where start and end are the unix timestamps for the start of the month and the end of the month. These can be calculated in PHP using mktime and sent as parameters.

A: Use:
SELECT *
  FROM TABLE
 WHERE DATETIME(your_unix_timestamp_col, 'unixepoch') BETWEEN YYYY-MM-DD
                                                          AND YYYY-MM-DD

Replace the YYYY-MM-DD with the dates you desire.  See the reference page for other supported formats.
Reference:

*

*SQLite - Date And Time Functions

A: Without calculating last day in month
SELECT *
  FROM table
 WHERE strftime('%Y-%m',date(unix_timestamp,'unixepoch','localtime')) = '2010-03'


An Interislander ferry sounded its horn to mark the time the Wahine struck Barrett Reef this morning and, weather permitting, another will form the backdrop to a flotilla on Wellington Harbour this afternoon, as KiwiRail helps commemorate the 50-year anniversary of the Wahine tragedy.
KiwiRail is a key sponsor of this year's Wahine 50th commemorations, taking place today.
"The rail ferry Aramoana, which was part of what is now the Interislander fleet, played a role in rescuing passengers from the Union Steam Ship Company's Wahine. Crew from Aramoana bravely volunteered to man lifeboats in the rough seas and rescue passengers and crew from the sinking ferry," says KiwiRail Chief Executive Peter Reidy.
"KiwiRail and Interislander wanted to help commemorate this event as it's important to recognise the lives that were lost and saved, the brave rescuers involved and the impact it has had on the maritime industry.
"The Wahine disaster helped shape maritime safety systems in New Zealand, and changed the way ferries operate on the Cook Strait.
"Today, we have better designed ships, improved bridge management systems, state of the art weather forecasting, comprehensive seafarer training and stricter regulations, all of which mean sailing on the Cook Strait is a much safer experience for customers and crew than it was 50 years ago.
"The Wahine disaster also changed the way New Zealand responds to disasters and gave rise to organisations such as the Life Flight rescue helicopter service, which Interislander supports.
As part of the 50th anniversary commemorations in Wellington on 10 April, the Interislander ferry Aratere sailed past during the Dawn Service at Eastbourne. It sounded its horn at 6.41am, the time the Wahine struck Barrett Reef, and a wreath was thrown from the deck of the ferry to mark the occasion.
This afternoon, the Interislander ferry Kaiarahi will sit as the backdrop to a flotilla steam-past of around 40 boats in Wellington harbour (including some which took part in the Wahine rescue 50 years ago).

Liberty (formerly National Council for Civil Liberties)
Founding members of the organisation included Ronald Kidd, Silvia Scaffardi, Dr Edith Summerskill and Claude Cockburn. The inaugural meeting was held at the church of St Martin-in-the-Fields, London on 22 February 1934. The organisation was founded on opposition to unemployment benefit cuts and anti-fascism. During the Second World War the organisation supported conscientious objectors and the freedom of the press and BBC.
During the 1940s and 1950s the organisation's activities became more heavily focused on helping those unable to defend themselves, such as children and those with mental illnesses. The 1970s and 1980s saw issues move towards the defence of women's rights and campaigns supporting gay rights.
In the 1960s the organisation established the Cobden Trust to undertake research and educational work in the field of civil liberties. This trust would later become the Civil Liberties Trust when NCCL changed its name to Liberty in the early 1990s.
Material in the collection (ref U DCL) covers the period 1908-1990s. Records consist largely of subject files on a wide variety of issues such as police, conscription, conscientious objection, censorship, peace movement, equal pay, capital punishment, anti-Semitism, discrimination in employment, mental health, fascism and anti-fascism. Files contain correspondence, press cuttings, notes, reports, circulars etc.
This collection would support research into a wide range of issues as can be seen from the subjects covered by the files. The overarching theme of the collection is civil liberties and defence of rights. The collection could also be used to demonstrate the operation of voluntary organisations during the 20th century.
Material deposited after 1990 is currently uncatalogued. Please contact the History Centre if you have any questions about the uncatalogued material.
Please also note that some sensitive information may be closed under data protection legislation. Where this is the case, indication is given in individual item descriptions on the online catalogue.
There are a number of related collections amongst the collections incuding Records of Slyvia Scaffardi (ref U DSF) and a file relating to Ronald Kidd in the Dictionary of Labour Biography papers (ref U DLB/13/158) as highlighted on our introduction to politics and campaigning collections.
Formed in the 1930s, Liberty is one of the oldest pressure groups still running in Britain. Subject files in the collection cover a wide range of civil rights issues.

Fibrus passes 50,000 premises milestone
Fibrus says it has smashed a major milestone of 50,000 premises in its roll-out of full fibre across the north
TELECOMS provider Fibrus has passed the 50,000 premises milestone in its roll out of full fibre to rural and regional under-served areas in Northern Ireland.
With a total planned capital investment of over £350million in infrastructure, it says it is currently rolling out at a speed of 14km a day.
And Fibrus - which last year was awarded Project Stratum, the Stormont-backed multi-million pound contract to transform broadband connectivity for 76,000 homes and businesses across the north - insists it is on track to surpass its 100,000 premises target by the end of this year.
Chief executive Dominic Kearns said: "We've travelled the length and breadth of Northern Ireland, meeting local communities and introducing our hyper-fast full fibre network to their areas, and we are delighted to have now passed just over 58,000 premises in such a short period of time.
"Our build rate of 14km of cable every day is phenomenal for a company like ours, which is still scaling up.
"We're proud of all our people and teams, those in the office, those working from home and those on the ground, who are improving people lives by delivering this project.
"It is their commitment to delivering the vision of this company that has enabled us to reach communities that until now have been left in the digital wilderness."
He added: "We're well on our way to delivering to over 40 per cent of the homes and businesses, and we believe Northern Ireland will be the first region on these islands to have 100 per cent coverage of full fibre broadband."

'Tulipmania' is not something you'd want to be involved in


Multi Domain Operational Strategists (MDOS) is an AETC award winning program for innovation in multi domain operations and joint warfighting at the United States Air Force Air Command and Staff College. It is a year-long, advanced level course focusing on developing future leaders who understand how to employ multi domain operational maneuver to counter emerging threats. This concentration prepares selected students for operational and command assignments requiring cutting-edge knowledge of planning and operations. Students study and apply strategic and operational design, the joint operations planning process, reflexive control, decision making theory, and risk analysis. MDOS graduates are able to develop and recommend solutions to ill-defined problems at the operational level of war, lead the joint operations planning process, plan and execute multi domain operations to counter future threats, and anticipate, adapt, and respond to surprise and uncertainty in complex environments.
WRT your continuum of domains, I would suggest the relationship between the EMS and the other domains is non-linear. The EMS is ubiquitous and while it can ultimately provide a means of influence or control over the human domain, it can also directly influence or control that most important domain as we saw the Russians attempt to do (or succeed in doing) in the 2106 Presidential election.
You're absolutely right. The EMS is ubiquitous and can create asymmetric effects across the entire continuum. The linear explanation I provided was simply to highlight "a" correlation between the domains. Great comment…Thanks!
Hopefully that understanding is becoming more widespread across the joint force. Up until my retirement in 2014, I was frequently frustrated by the tendency to treat cyber as a separate stovepipe, much the way we unfortunately treated the other three warfighting domains where you can delineate physical separation between them (despite the ability to create cross-domain effects).


Zzzz. Zzzz. Zzzz. Millions wish it was that simple.
When your spouse delicately expresses that sleeping with you is like sharing a bed with a Rockettes hopeful, or that in between your ocean-liner-like snores, he or she contemplates dialing 911 due to your intermittent cessation of breath, you're among a reported 80 percent of adults who have a sleep disorder. According to the National Sleep Foundation, sleep deprivation and fatigue-related error cause more than $100 billion in damages annually in the United States, and is figured to contribute to more than 100,000 transportation crashes alone.
With an increased awareness of sleep apnea, insomnia, restless-leg syndrome and 81 other known nocturnal disorders, millions of Americans have realized the importance of therapeutic intervention. Among the products for facilitating a good night's sleep are Origins' Sensory Therapy "sleep" line of bath soak, tea and pillow mist for the rejuvenation of a society shunning the "fast-lane" lifestyle.
