A Home Automation (HA) System based on the Home Bus system has been developed. The system has a multi-layered hierachical structure and is composed of four subsystems (the Room Monitor Control Subsystem, the Telephone Subsystem, the Tele-control Subsystem and the In-house Video Control Subsystem). The HA system has both three inner-subsystem communication codes and one inter-subsystem communication code. The former are optimized for each subsystem and the latter enables the HA system to have efficiently combined applications. A compact (48.6 x 31 x 4 mm) communication control module which interfaces householdappliances with the Home Bus has also been developed as one of the key parts for the system.

The devastating effect of domestic violence on children shook us on Sept. 19, the day convicted batterer Mohammad Goher shot and killed his three children while they slept in his Houston home. A tortured victim of Goher for 15 years, Goher's wife had left and filed for divorce. Despite having generous unsupervised custody privileges, Goher feared losing custody of his children. He took matters into his own hands.
Reports on the tragedy state that the lawyers involved in the Goher case raised no concern over the children's safety. They saw Goher as a loving father because he had not specifically threatened or hurt the children and when asked if they wanted to visit their father, the children said yes. Their reasoning demonstrates a severe dearth of knowledge about family violence.
In my work with battered women since 1995, I have heard puffy-eyed mothers describe their abusive husbands in the same vein as the lawyers: "He is a great father" or "He has not laid a hand on his kids." As long as the children are not directly hurt, the women find no reason to leave. Like the family law professionals, they too believe that their children need both parents. "I will leave after my child turns 18" is a common statement I hear. To these mothers, I stress three simple facts: (1) What is detrimental to the mother cannot be good for her young children. (2) It is only a matter of time before the children are hurt. (3) By diminishing the perpetrator's violent acts and highlighting his fatherly qualities, they fuel the cycle of violence.
The children's inclination to please the perpetrating parent however possible only reinforces this reality. Caught in the abuse cycle, children suffer due to divided loyalties. Some children feel compelled to "protect" their mothers by defying the abusive parent; some mediate; and some participate in the violence just to survive. Regardless, children are torn. No wonder, the Goher children said yes to visiting their father.
A parent prone to violence is indeed a misfortune for any child, but having to pay for it with his life is the most horrible form of injustice. Those entrusted with making crucial decisions on behalf of our children - lawyers, judges, the police, social and mental health service providers and parents — must grasp the perpetuating nature of the cycle of violence by undergoing frequent family violence training provided by local women's centers.

Q: Debug external libaries in Rider IDE In Visual Studio 2015 I can debug an external library very easy if I have the source code. I just open a source code file of that library in VS and set breakpoints, then I just need to load the assembly (or module) in the view "Modules" where I can right on the external library and select "Load Symbols" (and as well "Always Load Symbols" if required).
Now the breakpoints set in the external library work.
How can I achieve the same in the Rider IDE? Is is possible at all to debug external libraries with Rider?

A: Strictly speaking, this is not supported in Rider so far but planned for 2017.3. Here is an issue on JetBrains Youtrack to watch and vote for.

A: *

*In Rider settings disable the checkbox: "Do not step into library scripts".

*If you have access to the source code, generate a nuget package including symbols. (for netcore cli: dotnet pack -o "../myNugetPackages --include-symbols --version-suffix "-localversion"

*Adjust your nuget.config package resource to get files from local directory:
<add key="local-packages" value="../myNugetPackages" />

*Add the local package version as dependency in your project that is opened by Rider.

*Open files from the source code (used to generate the package) and add breakpoints.

A: you can replace lib dll in your solution with dll from lib source.
Here is an example: How to debug OrchardCore source code in an existing project .
Orchard Core is an open source and can be used in your .net project. you can run your project and orchard core official project, then attach you project in oc.

The above image is the established symbol (also called glyph) for the Zodiac sign Taurus, the Bull. It's a simple representation of the head of a bull, with its horns. Both the Zodiac sign and its symbol have been along for ages.
The Babylonians didn't connect this Zodiac sign to the Bull, though. They called the constellation The Steer of Heaven. But already in Classical Greece, the Bull was established as the name of the sign and the constellation.
As you can see, the formation of the stars doesn't support the idea of a bull very convincingly. The reason for the choice is, as far as I know, buried in history.
Below is an antique illustration of the same constellation, where the figure of the bull has also been added. It's from a 17th century book: Firmamentum sobiescianum, by Johannes Hevelius, 1690.
Below is an ink version of the symbol for Taurus, which I did a number of years back in an experiment of using Japanese ink calligraphy (shodo) for old European astrology symbols. I've used these pictures on my astrology websites, mainly for fun and for the odd graphic effect, and I've seen them copied all over the Internet. I'm fine with that, although I think it wouldn't hurt if the source was mentioned. Well, what to do?
As for the picture commonly used to represent the Taurus Zodiac sign, it's been an image of a bull for as long as that has been its name – probably longer than the symbol described above has existed. Below is one typical example, where the stars of the constellation Taurus have also been marked. It's an illustration from Poeticon astronomicon, a 1482 book by Hyginus.
This is a graphic I created where I combined the symbol for Taurus with an image of a bull. Well, actually I think it's an African water buffalo, but the head and the horns are there. I also added the primary symbol of the Taurus traits: agriculture, in the form of crops on a field.

The Economic Forum is set to meet in two days to provide updated state revenue forecasts for the current biennium. In an earlier post, I suggested that the shortfall for the current biennium could approach $400 million. Since then, state revenues have continued to decline and at this point, it would not be surprising if the forecasted shortfall ends up being well in excess of $400 million, possibly even approaching $500 million. With a fiscal hole of that magnitude, and the apparent lack of cooperation between the executive and legislative branches, the upcoming special session threatens to be lengthy, difficult, and fraught with risky political exposure to elected officials gearing up for an election cycle.
On an interesting legal side note, Nevada law requires that the normal forecasts of the Economic Forum (which occur in the December before a regular session and again in May of a regular session) be used in setting the biennial budget. However, the statutes are silent as to whether interim forecasts, such as the upcoming forecast, must be used in a special session to adjust an existing biennial budget. Regardless, both branches used an interim forecast in the summer of 2008, when the Governor called a one-day special session to address budget shortfalls.

Q: How can I change the size of a multi-line editor-field? I'm working on an MVC project using C#.  Right now, I'm trying to customize my views a little, and I'd like to make the text boxes bigger.
I followed the suggestions in this question to move from a single-line to a multi-line text field:
Changing the size of Html.TextBox
Now I'm trying to resize that multi-line field, but I'm not sure where or how to do so.
Here are snippets from my Edit view

     @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Body)

     @Html.EditorFor(model => model.Body)
     @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Body)

and from my model:
[DataType(DataType.MultilineText)]
[DisplayName("Body:")]
public string Body { get; set; }

A: In MVC 5 you can use
    @Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.body, 5, 50,  new { @class = "form-control" } )

Works nicely!

A: If you are using mvc and bootstrap
try this:
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Property, new { @class = "form-control", @rows = 5 })

A: To adhere to a previously created view  style, you can also do this:

A: I would do this with CSS:

     @Html.EditorFor(model => model.Body)
     @Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Body)

and then in your CSS file define the width and height to the desired values:
.editor-multiline-field textarea {
    width: 300px;
    height: 200px;
}

A: You can also use @Html.TextArea ou TextAreaFor
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Text, new { cols = 25, @rows = 5 })

A: try
@Html.TextAreaFor(model => model.Descricao, 5, 50, null)
in View Page

A: I just wanna share in mvc 5
  @Html.EditorFor(model => model.Body,
                  new {htmlAttributes = new {@style="width:yourdesiredwidth;"}
                   })

or use a custom class

Greece bestows valor medal on migrant rescuer
Defense Minister Panos Kammenos on Monday bestowed a medal on army sergeant Antonis Deligiorgis for his role in the rescue of 90 undocumented migrants whose boat crashed into rocks off the coast of Rhodes last Monday.
Deligiorgis was notably distinguished for saving 20 people single-handedly, among them a pregnant woman from Eritrea, who gave birth to a healthy boy on Friday, naming him Antonis after her rescuer.
Footage of Deligiorgis carrying migrants from the sinking wreckage was aired around the world last week.
"Without really giving it a second's thought, I did what I had to do… I had taken off my shirt and was in the water," the 34-year-old told the UK's Guardian.

Cyprus: Cyber Trust Insights 2022
Building trust through cybersecurity and privacy
by KPMG In Cyprus (Nicosia)
KPMG in Cyprus
To today's businesses, trust is everything. In an uncertain, constantly shifting environment, customers, employees and investors look for organizations they can depend on. But building and protecting that sense of trust requires many parts of the organization to work together to deliver a consistent unified vision.
Now that we live in a digitized world, every part of the business depends on fairness, integrity and transparency in the way information is collected and processed. Systems should be resilient, dependable and able to respond quickly in the face of disruption. Whether you are a customer or client who wants to feel safe when transacting with the organization, or part of the broader ecosystem of partners, investors, regulators and society surrounding every organization — digital trust matters.
Cybersecurity and privacy have a key role to play in building and maintaining that trust. Businesses are ramping up data collection, expanding the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies and embracing the environmental, social and governance (ESG) agenda, all while facing increasingly exacting regulatory standards.
In this latest research — Cyber trust insights 2022 — KPMG International surveyed 1,881 executives and held a series of discussions with corporate leaders and professionals from across the world to explore the extent to which the C-suite recognizes this, how they are meeting the challenge, and what they need to do next. It also explores the key role chief information security officers (CISOs) can play in helping them and identifies five crucial steps to help build trust through cybersecurity and privacy.

Boris Johnson – Just Another Cowardly, Empty Suit
June 17, 2020 JoshuaPundit Islam, Israel, Politics Comments Off on Boris Johnson – Just Another Cowardly, Empty Suit
When Boris Johnson first became the UK's Prime Minister, my original opinion was that he would finally see Brexit completed, deal with the migration problem and put the UK back on the right path. Yes, he fooled me too, although given the alternative of a Labour Party with anti-semitic Jeremy Corbyn, Boris Johnson was the best choice available.
It has turned out that the difference isn't all that much, really. Yes he did get Brexit through, sort of , although he's still going back and forth with the EU.
Bojo has done little or nothing to deal with the UK's problem with violent migrants. In fact, none other then Nigel Farage has actually filmed the UK authorities allowing boatloads of Muslim migrants shipped across the Channel by France into Britain with virtually no vetting.
Crime in London continues to skyrocket, and Mayor Sadiq Kahn of course has done little or nothing to stop it. Nor have London's police, who are obviously under orders not to do so. Just recently, the Antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters took a large part of the city apart.
In the latest dust up, the mob was allowed by the police to do quite a bit of beating down on anyone they wanted to as well as a lot of looting and destruction, vandalizing statues of Queen Victoria, Lord Nelson, one of King James II, George Washington and Winston Churchill as well as a number of historic buildings like the Cenotaph War memorial, The National Gallery, The police essentially ran away as the mob chanted "Run piggy run.". Those who attempted to stop the carnage were assaulted by the mob which had no fear of them at all
And why would they? London's assistant commissioner for police Anil Kanti "Neil" Basu said he would "probably" have joined Black Lives Matter protests himself if he was not a police officer. That, even though 60 of his police officers were injured by the rioters, some of them quite seriously.
And Boris Johnson's comment on the vandalizing of a statue of one of Britain's greatest leaders? "Churchill sometimes expressed opinions that were and are unacceptable today."
Like perhaps Churchill's assessment of Islam? Sheer cowardice on Bojo's part, but this fits in with Mayor Kahn's new campaign to 'diversify the landmarks of London.' And believe,that's not all that's being 'diversified' in London as well as other cities in Britain.
And remember Boris Johnson's talking about a new and better relationship with Israel? Don't bet on it. He's proved himself to be basically a more sophisticated and smoother version of Jeremy Corbyn.
His latest stunt is to join other hostile EU countries in threatening Israel with sanctions if Israel applies Israeli sovereignty to the Jordan Valley and parts of Judea and Samaria where Israeli cities exist..the opposite of what he said before.
MP Crispin Blunt, a member of Bojo's own party put this together in collusion with something called the Council for Arab British Understanding. There's no question this was done with Bojo's consent. Blunt was one of 130 British parliamentarians who signed a letter to Johnson in May urging him to impose sanctions on Israel if it moved ahead with its sovereignty plan.
Bojo's remarks at question time about this? Here they are:
"I believe that what is proposed by Israel would amount to a breach of international law and we strongly object to it, and we believe profoundly in a two-state solution and will continue to make that case."
My, my! First of all, Israel didn't propose this. President Trump did, as part of his peace plan. Sanctions then? Bojo didn't say yes exactly, but if he let this get that far, he almost certainly would go along with it…some 'better relation.'
And here's the irony.
According to international law, ALL of Judea and Samaria (AKA the West Bank to the uninitiated) belongs to Israel. And Britain happily signed on to that.
In 1922, Britain, as the Mandatory Power appointed by the League of Nations decided to ask for permission to divide the Palestine Mandate into two parts, one for a Jewish state the other for an Arab state because they wanted to reward Abdullah, one of the sons of the Hashemite Sharif of Mecca with a kingdom.*
This new treaty,the San Remo Accords was ratified by Britain,the League, the Jews and the Arabs, It stated that the Jews would receive everything west of the Jordan River (22%) and the Arabs would get everything east of the Jordan River(78%). The Brits made sure the new Arab kingdom, named Trans-Jordan was quickly created. After which they went out of their way to prevent the creation of a Jewish state in numerous ways.
The most disgraceful of these was to prevent Jews from migrating to Palestine while allowing unlimited Arab migration. In 1939, Neville Chamberlain, a known anti-semite issued an order not to let any Jews into Palestine at all… at a time when thousands of Jewish refugees who had fled to France and other countries had nowhere else to go. He also appointed a rabid Jew hater and Nazi Ally, Amin al-Husseini as leader of the Palestinian Arabs. During WWII, when Israel's Jews fought with the Allies, Husseini was in Europe recruiting Bosnian Muslims for Hitler's armies and translating Mein Kamph into Arabic.
After WWII, when Labour's Clem Atlee took over, he made the decision to allow Husseini back into Palestine. At the same time, the Brits were still not allowing Jews into Palestine, and even had their own concentration camp on Cyprus for any survivors of the Holocaust they caught trying to get in, and in some cases, they even sent Jews back to the very same death camps in Europe they had been imprisoned in.
In 1948, when Israel declared its independence the UN recognized it, although Britain didn't. The UN also made the San Remo Accords part of its charter, in Article 80.
So according to international law, the area in question all belongs to Israel.
When the Arabs made it very plain in 1948 that they intended a jihad to get rid of the Jews, the UK, when it pulled out, left a number of strategic areas like the Taggart forts in Arab hands They also armed the Arab nations involved and in the case of Jordan, even sent officers to command them under Colonel John Glubb, a notorious anti-semite. They oversaw the ethnic cleansing of Judea, Samaria and the Old City of Jerusalem. In other words, three years after Auschwitz was liberated, the Brits were aiding and abetting what could have become a second Holocaust.
This shouldn't surprise anyone. Aside from a few exceptions, Britain has always been an anti-semitic and anti-Israel country in its policies.
As for the two state solution, aside from the fact that's already been tried and has utterly failed, there is no reason for it since Jordan exists and most of the Arabs who started calling themselves 'Palestinians' after the'67 war have Jordanian citizenship, including the so-called refugees, They've had it since 1954, courtesy of Jordan's parliament. And that includes Mahmoud Abbas.
If the Brits want to give these people a country so much, perhaps they should hand them a piece their country.Why not? Parts of it are already filled with Muslims, there are already sharia courts, more mosques than churches, halal food everywhere, honor killings, sex grooming gangs, acid throwing etc. and the Brits don't seem disposed to change any of that.So they'd be right at home. And the Brits could live right next to them…Jolly fun, eh?
As for Boris Johnson, he's essentially just another Theresa May with a penis. He is obviously not the solution to what's ailing Britain, although it seemed like it at the time.
It's obvious to me that the solution is more like this.…and I hope the Brits wake up.
* Actually, Abdullah wanted Syria but so did the French, so he was forced to settle, especially since the people in Damascus wanted no part of illiterate Arabs running things after the taste of it they had at the end of WWI.

Tesco is one of the worst FTSE 100 performers of the decade. Of course I'd buy it
Harvey Jones
Fool.co.uk 31 December 2019
Tired or stressed businessman sitting on the walkway in panic digital stock market financial background
Well the decade is over, and it's been a great one for investors. We've had 10 years without a recession, and markets have flown as a result.
They say a rising tide floats all boats, but the longest bull run in history has left behind a number of top stocks, as every bull run does. Can this FTSE 100 flop continue to claw its way back? I'm optimistic that it can.
Oh, no, it's Tesco
If you bought grocery superhero Tesco (LSE: TSCO) on 27 December 2009 you would have paid around 427p. Today, the Tesco share price trades at roughly half that, 255p, which means you will have lost around 40% of your money
You would have recouped some of this from dividends, but not so much, given that Tesco scrapped its payout for three years from 2014 and is only slowly rebuilding it. Currently, the stock yields just 2.29%.
Then just imagine the opportunity cost of what you could have put your money into instead.
Former boss Philip Clarke left Tesco in 2014 after issuing another profit warning, blamed variously on tough trading conditions in the UK, the challenge from German discounters, failed global expansion plans and a frightening £22bn debt pile.
Dave did it
Dave Lewis, who joined from Unilever that same year, got off on the right foot and stayed there. Happily, he wasn't to blame for the accounting scandal soon after his appointment, but instead won kudos for taking swift action to expose it. Nor was he blamed for the £6.4bn loss in his first year, which included the one-off £7bn cost of a head office job cull and write-downs on store values.
Lewis dumped unprofitable electricals, closed its separate clothing and homeware website Tesco Direct, sold the Dobbies garden centre chain, made a string of asset disposals including South Korean chain Homeplus for £4bn, and snapped up cash-and-carry giant Booker for £3.7bn. He also fought and survived a brutal supermarket price war.
Shore Capital analyst Clive Black even described him as the "bloke that saved Tesco", and I wouldn't argue with that.
Downs and ups
It's a sign of how bad things got at Tesco that it is still the worst FTSE 100 performer over the last decade despite rising 43% in the past five years. However, at today's price of around 250p, it is still well below its £4 peak.
Would I buy it today? To my surprise, I would. I say surprise, because the grocery sector is tough. Aldi and Lidl keep coming. Tesco's market share keeps getting nibbled away. Operating margins are just 3.4%, and expected to fall to 3.1% next year. Lewis is leaving.
Earnings growth looks set to slow, from a bumper 65% in 2017 and 82% in 2018, to 13%, 9% and 9% over the next three years. However, that is still pretty steady.
The forward valuation of 14.88 times earnings is not too demanding, below the FTSE 100 average of 18 times. The forecast yield is below average at 3.2%, but it is covered 2.1 times and forecast to climb to 3.6% and beyond over the next few years.
Tesco has a fight on its hands, but will hopefully perform much better over the next 10 years, than the last 10.

The 1985 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament began on March 14 and ended on March 31 and featured 32 teams. The Final Four consisted of Old Dominion, Northeast Louisiana, Western Kentucky, and Georgia, with Old Dominion defeating Georgia, 70–65 in the championship game.  Old Dominion's Tracy Claxton was named the Most Outstanding Player of the tournament.

1985 is the first year ESPN began televising some of the Tournament games. They televised two of the four Regional finals (East and West Regional), as well as the two national semifinals. The Georgia vs Western Kentucky match up was shown live, while the Old Dominion vs. Northeast Louisiana game was shown tape-delayed. The Championship game was broadcast by CBS.

Notable events
Georgia faced Western Kentucky in the semi-final. This was a rematch of a game played in December, when Western Kentucky prevailed, 72–67. However, in that game, Katrina McClain had been sidelined with an ankle injury. She was available to play in the Final Four, and achieved a career high total of 25 points. Her teammate, Teresa Edwards, scored 27, and the two helped Georgia win the semi-final 91–78.

In the championship game, Georgia took on Old Dominion. The Lady Monarchs weren't hitting their shots, scoring on only 38% of their field goal attempts, but they made up for their misses with rebounds. The Old Dominion team had set an NCAA Final Four record (still standing in 2012) with 57 rebounds in the semi-final game, and they repeated that performance in the championship game, pulling down 57 rebounds and limiting Georgia to 30. The game would be close, but Old Dominion prevailed, 70–65, to win the national Championship.

Records
In the second half of the semi-final game between Georgia and Western Kentucky, Georgia scored 57 points while Western Kentucky scored 44. The combined point total of 101 points in a half, as well as the points scored by a single team in a half are both Final Four records, still standing in 2012.

In the other semi-final game, Old Dominion pulled down 57 rebounds against Northeast Louisiana. That number still stands as a Final Four rebounds record, although it was tied two days later by Old Dominion in the championship game against Georgia.

In a first-round game, Teresa Carmichael of Saint Joseph's University, attempted eleven field goals and hit all eleven. That's the most number of field goal attempts without a miss in tournament history, though 2012.

For The Power-Hungry Driver, The Mazda CX-5 Turbo Is Now Open For Booking
Mazda's middle child gets hand-me-downs from the bigger sibling CX-9
Since the dawn of the CX-5 so many, many years ago, the one main thing that people wanted for the SUV was more power. Well, now they are getting it. You're looking at the new Mazda CX-5 Turbo, and you can see it for yourself from today, 4 September till 9 September in Sunway Pyramid.
The turbo mill seems to be plucked from the CX-9 and plonked into the CX-5. The output figures indeed suggest that - the 2.5-litre turbocharged engine produces 228hp at 5,000rpm and 420Nm at 2,000rpm. Power goes to all four wheels through Mazda's six-speed automatic Skyactiv-Drive.
Also making its way from the CX-9 and into the CX-5 is the climate control panel, albeit this is a dual-zone without independent rear control. What else? The instrument cluster now sports a large colour display in the middle; very similar to the one in the new Mazda3.
The full specifications have yet to be announced, but we expect the CX-5 Turbo to have all the best toys in the catalogue. From the looks of things, the CX-5 Turbo will unseat the 2.2D AWD sibling as the king of this hill. The price is estimated to be in the ballpark of RM180,000.00; Mazda has begun taking orders. Will you be signing up for one?

"... Pros: Small, clean, free. Cons: Time stamp before and event takes up too much space... see my detailed notes. Summary: When creating an event, say: "Oil Change" I can't not figure out how to disable the time as the prefix. eg. "8:00am Oil Change". The pop-up reminder will tell me at 8:00am... I'd rather be able to see the whole field word as it gets cut off. "8:00am Oi" Maybe this is because my netbook screen is small? ..."

To stand a chance of winning the Avengers: Infinity War merchandise, all you need to do is tell us who plays Thanos in the film (in the comments section below).
The first image is the cover of "The Road to Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War - The Art of the Marvel Cinematic Universe" hardcover (available on Amazon). That doesn't mean it can't still be enjoyable, but since this is the movie that the entire MCU has been leading up to, it's important to know the basics. But because of his childhood love for Marvel and these characters, Rana said "yes" immediately.
On a serious note, the actor reveals that Thanos is a character that he has read about in books as a child and has seen has seen in earlier Marvel movies. Clint Barton has been absent from promotion for The Avengers: Infinity War for some reason (guess Marvel had to have their own Luke Skywalker and Superman!). "To provide the voice for Thanos is really exciting for me", he says.
Disney India continues setting new standards for Hollywood in India. It wasn't short of a casting coup! Come April 27th, Disney is all set to take over the cinematic universe, yet again, with the phenomena that is Avengers: Infinity War.
Given that he's been entirely absent from the marketing and promotional materials, and his name isn't featured in the credits of the official poster, it would seem that Jeremy Renner's Hawkeye is only going to make the briefest of appearances in Avengers: Infinity War, if at all. It was directed by Joe and Anthony Russo from a script by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. The Avengers and their Super Hero allies must be willing to sacrifice all in an attempt to defeat the powerful Thanos before his blitz of devastation and ruin puts an end to the universe.
Recently www.tollywood.net reported that Baahubali star Rana Daggubati has been approached to lend his voice to the character of Thanos in the Telugu version of Avengers: Infinity War.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a written statement announcing the pleas. "But this illegality stops right now". Ferrer's guilty plea is the latest domino to fall in a rush of developments against the site.

Introduction/Background: The costs of human activities in Antarctica, not merely from an economic perspective but also from environmental, social and cultural points of view, are increasingly acknowledged. In light of the coverage (in the media and in policy discussions) of the many aspects of human endeavour in the Antarctic, policy-makers, educators, scientists and the wider public are asked to weigh multiple costs and benefits (that is to say, values) against one another. Understanding the extent and nature of the values that human beings place on Antarctica has large-scale and very serious implications for human engagement with and activity in the Antarctic in the future.
Important Issues or Factors: Social scientists and humanities researchers have the expertise and tools to lead an academic assessment of Antarctic values. The Social Sciences AG (hereon referred to as "the group") was established to carry out research targeted at understanding and cataloguing the range of values underpinning human engagement with the Antarctic. As this report and the list of research outputs (in the appendices) show, this research effort has progressed considerably. At the same time, it has become clear that a thorough exploration of human values associated with Antarctica is a complex task that requires more time and continued efforts. However, this research project promises considerable benefits in the long run, especially with regard to understanding decision-making in an Antarctic context and developing alternative strategies for environmental management.
Recommendations/Actions and Justification: We request that the group's term be extended to 2014 to maintain the momentum established through the Antarctic values research project and to enable a thorough examination of the complexities associated with Antarctic values and their implications.
Expected Benefits/Outcomes: The group will continue to raise the profile of SCAR in the public realm and in social science and humanities research communities by demonstrating that SCAR supports research outside the realm of the natural sciences and that it encourages multi-disciplinary research efforts. Facilitating an examination of Antarctic values through this group will also help SCAR to provide policy advice that is rooted in a thorough understanding of the drivers of human engagement with the Antarctic. Finally, a range of academic publications resulting from this research effort will bolster SCAR's scholarly record.
Partners: The group has regular communication with the SCAR History EG and with the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) and has established contact with representatives of the IASC Social and Human Sciences Working Group. Endeavours are underway to establish close collaborations with researchers working on Arctic social science and humanities topics in order to expand the reach of Antarctic social science and humanities research.
Budget Implications: The group would like to continue operating with the current budget of $3000 per year.

After beating Scottish champions Celtic in Dublin, Barça completed a British double on Wednesday night by defeating English champs Leicester City in the Swedish capital. And they did so with a performance, especially in the first half when most of the first teamers were on the field, that shows that the Blaugrana machine has lost absolutely none of its cutting edge.
Luis Enrique named just two Barça B players, Marlon and Cámara, in his starting line-up, while Claudio Ranieri opted for what was more or less a first-choice eleven. As expected, Barça governed the play from the first minute, while Leicester defended intensely and looked for chances on the counter-attack – both teams staying faithful to the contrasting styles that led them to their respective national titles last season.
It all amounted to considerably more entertaining fare than the typical pre-season friendly, although the deadlock was not broken until the 26th minute. Denis Suárez supplied Leo Messi, and the Argentinian's through ball was met nicely by Munir, who slotted the ball home to make it 1-0 to the Catalans.
The goal got Barça buzzing, and eight minutes later their many fans inside the Friends Arena had another one to celebrate. Pegged against the goal-line, Luis Suárez powered his way through two tackles from Huth and Chilwell and then poked the ball home.
With better finishing up front, Leicester might have had a goal or two of their own, but instead Barça were in total command. And they squeezed in a third goal just before the break. A dazzling assist from Luis Suárez supplied Munir, who pinged a perfectly timed strike past Zieler.
That was his second of the night, but although a Barça win looked as good as secure with 45 minutes still to play, the English side had not had their final say.
Busquets and Mascherano were the only new faces at the start of a second half that saw Leicester immediately pull one back when Ahmed Musa charged all the way from the halfway line to beat Masip and make it 3-1.
The Nigerian gave many signals of being a very astute signing indeed from CSKA. The lightning-quick striker was one of the standout performers in Leicester's post-break recovery, and it was he who rammed home the Foxes' second on 66 minutes.
Unperturbed by the turn in events, Luis Enrique made wholesale changes as the second half progressed. By the 75 minute mark, the B team players had become the majority. A Leicester equaliser was not out of the question, but any danger of that was silenced on 84 minutes when Rafa Mújica fired home in impressively confident fashion to make it 4-2 to the Catalans.
All told, the fans in Stockholm had been treated to an engaging evening of football, and the win comes as another boost for the players' morale as the start of the competitive season draws closer.

The law of attraction is great and it has the potential to help you acquire the abundance you deserve BUT it doesn't tell you one vital piece of information.
You are told there is more than enough abundance to go around, you are told to visualize what you want and you are told to remove negativity from your life but I think the most important piece of the attraction process was left unsaid.
The universe pays attention to what you think about most both consciously and unconsciously. If you are unconsciously dwelling on the negative things in your life or that could happen to you, this is a sign that these are the most important things to you and you will be attracting them.
The video below shares what I think the missing piece is and WHY I think it's so vital.
Did the video help you see why action is the missing ingredient?
The more you can clearly visualize your desires the more you will be bringing your conscious and unconscious minds into agreement. A clearly defined plan of action plus consistent action towards your desire helps keep the negativity at bay and your positive actions help broadcast that your desire is very important to you.

Q: about the number Literals lexical alert(010),the result is 8. why?
i read the ecmascript 7.8.3 Numeric Literals.
According to the Numeric Literals Lexical,
010 is a invalid numeric literals.

A: It's only so when strict mode is turned on :
(function(){
"use strict";
010;
})();
SyntaxError: Octal literals are not allowed in strict mode.

Otherwise it would break backwards compatibility.

A: 010 in octal is 8 in decimal. If it says it's invalid (where's the link?), it may have changed, or you're doing it in a different version that isn't "ECMAScript" or something?
In many programming languages, an 0 before a numeric literal makes it octal.


When I woke up I could feel myself smiling. This is a dream I could get used to.
We all know I love the birds who visit our garden at Maul-Hall. I think it's a mixture of their incredible beauty, their consummate grace, and the fact that the little guys are so difficult to photograph. The birds swoop in, take a quick look around, and then take off the moment they see a camera. I need a telephoto lens, a steady hand, and the good fortune to be near a window with my Nikon nearby when the opportunity presents itself.
Then there's the whole flying thing. Of all the super-hero or extra-human capabilities I ever dreamed of, flying always comes in at number one. The dream, the one I described at the start of this post, has been around since I was a small boy. Not often, but persistent. Yes, once in a while I dream of falling, but mostly I soar – it's the most wonderful idea imaginable.
Sometimes I wonder if such a dream is partially a memory from before I was born or maybe some kind of prescience as to what is to come? I wonder if I will be able to fly? I wonder if the dimension we inhabit in eternity will even involve gravity?
For today, heading up Capital Boulevard to WFPC for morning worship (9:00 and 11:15) my adoration of God is in part shaped by my deep realization that life is always bursting with spectacular possibilities we have not yet imagined and that my comprehension of what it means to be so loved is multiplied every day because of God's reaching into this world and into my life.

Florentino Collantes (Pulilan, 16 oktober 1896 - 15 juli 1951) was een Filipijns dichter.

Biografie
Florentino Collantes werd geboren op 16 oktober 1896 in de Pulilan in de Filipijnse provincie Bulacan. Hij was een zoon van Toribio Collantes en Manuela Tancioco. Collantes voltooide zijn middelbareschoolopleiding aan de Provincial Highschool in Malolos. Nadien werkte hij twee jaar als onderwijzer voor de jongste klassen van de middelbare school. Nadien werd hij boekhouder en stenograaf en werkte hij voor de Filipijnse overheid.

Collantes begon rond zijn 15e met dichten. Veel van zijn gedichten werden gepubliceerd in de lokale Filipijnse kranten. Collantes was een van de eerste Filipijnse dichters die kritische gedichten publiceerde ten aanzien van de Amerikaanse koloniale bezetters. Hij was als vooroorlogse dichter in het Tagalog belangrijk voor de gebruik van de taal in de literatuur en de ontwikkeling van de Balagtasan, een naar Francisco Balagtas vernoemde dichtende debatvorm. Enkele bekende gedichten van zijn hand zijn: Ang Magsasaka, Pangarap sa Bagong Kasal, Mahalin Ang Atin, Ang Tulisan, At Sara't Balimbing en Ang Labingdalawang Kuba. Zijn meest belangrijke werk was Ang Lumang Simbahang (De oude kerk) uit 1931. Dit verhalende romantische mysterie breidde hij later uit naar een roman. Het verhaal werd later nog omgezet naar een toneelstuk.

Op 4 juli 1950 werd Collantes tijdens een ceromonie die werd bijgewoon door president Elpidio Quirino in het Rizal Memorial Stadium uitgeroepen tot Makata ng Bayan (dichter des vaderland).

Collantes overleed in 1951 op 54-jarige leeftijd. Hij was getrouwd met Sixta Tancioco. Samen kregen ze acht kinderen.

Community feedback on Nelson Southern Link investigation released
5 August 2016 3:03 pm | NZ Transport Agency
A summary report outlining community feedback on the Nelson Southern Link Investigation has been released today by the NZ Transport Agency.
The report summarises over 2,000 items of feedback received over five weeks from people in the Nelson and Tasman regions about how to improve Nelson's arterial transport network. Feedback came from individuals, stakeholders, organisations, societies and interest groups. To ensure a wide range of views were captured the Transport Agency also conducted a separate telephone survey with a random sample of 500 people across Nelson and Tasman (400 in Nelson, 100 in Tasman).
"This feedback provides good insight into the views of a wide range of people and demonstrates the interest people have in the future of their transport network," Raewyn Bleakley, Central Regional Director, NZ Transport Agency says.
Public feedback on the Investigation, which was launched in 2015 as part of the Government's Accelerated Regional Roading Package, has always been a key element of the investigation process, Ms Bleakley says.
"It was very important that we took this time at the start of the Nelson Southern Link Investigation to understand the community's expectations and ideas about the future of the state highway. The level and quality of engagement with the local community on this issue has been positive."
Ms Bleakley says the feedback from the public engagement will be carefully considered as the Transport Agency finalises this phase of the investigation and determines the way forward.
The feedback will be used, along with other factors, to complete the Programme Business Case later this year. The business case will include a recommended approach to improve transport along the arterial network between the Annesbrook and Haven Road roundabouts.
The NSLI Public Engagement Summary Report is available on the Transport Agency website at www.nzta.govt.nz/nelson-southern-link(external link)


Shatta Wale real name Charles Nii Armah Mensah Jnr was born on (17th October 1984), Shatta is a Ghanaian born producer and reggae-dancehall musician. He is best known for his biggest breakthrough hit song Dancehall King which led to winning the Artiste of the Year at the 2014 edition of the Ghana Music Awards.
Shatta Wale has in recent times demonstrated that he can act as well by featuring in his first ever movie titled Never Say Never featuring Charles Kofi Bucknor, Edward Kufuor and Paulina Oduro and also featuring in Shattered Lives along with Bisa K'dei and Majid Michel.
Charles attended Winneba Secondary School and during that time he was popularly known as 'Ayoz'. He changed his name to "Bandana" after senior high school and released the hit track "Bandana from Ghana". The song made tremendous air waves in the Ghanaian music industry in 2004. After the release of his first Album titled Bandana from Ghana, then Bandana went into musical hiatus until he re-branded himself to Shatta Wale and released his hit song Dancehall King in 2013. He is the leader, chief executive officer (CEO) and founder of the Shatta Movement (SM) or (SM4LYF).

President Abraham Lincoln's secretary of war, Edward Stanton, had a hatred for one of his generals. Stanton came to Lincoln with his complaints about the general, expecting Lincoln to take disciplinary action. Instead, the thoughtful president instructed his cabinet member to write a scathing letter regarding the insubordinations of the general. Two days later Stanton returned to the Oval Office with his letter. Lincoln had the letter read aloud and applauded the powerful and descriptive language that his compatriot used.
