VAWA LETTER
All My Relations Team
Vote (If You Want To & Can)
MATIKA WILBUR: Welcome back, we're glad you're here. Happy Indigenous People's Day, Adrienne,
ADRIENNE KEENE: Happy Indigenous People's Day, Matika.
MATIKA: You know, it's really important to celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day over our traditional American and assimilation practices, I mean, over genocide. And we actually did a whole episode. We did a whole episode about this last year.
ADRIENNE: Right. If you want to hear us kind of be snarky and talk about all the reasons why you should not support Columbus and should instead support Indigenous Peoples' Day, you can definitely check that one out. It's short and we'll post it on our social media feed. I do want to mention and it was something I realized, thanks to folks on Instagram, that in that episode we don't ever name Taino people as like the folks who actually met Columbus's ships and experienced the devastation following that. So I want to make sure that we center that idea and that community when we're talking about Indigenous Peoples' Day. So shout it to the Taino people who are still here and still holding it down even after all of that.
MATIKA: You would think that this would be like my favorite day of the year, but instead Indigenous Peoples' Day is always a day that I work the most. How about you?
ADRIENNE: Yes, it's like good and bad. I'm always honored that people want me to, like, come speak on their campuses and stuff. But I'm also like, you can have me any time, just not October 12th.
MATIKA: Every day can be Indigenous Peoples Day.
ADRIENNE: And I know for like a lot of us, this kind of starts the downward slope of bad representations. Though this year there's a few things like normally it's, you know, Indigenous People's Day slash celebrating that genocidal explorer. And then it's Halloween and then it's Thanksgiving and it's football season, et cetera, et cetera. But this year, we don't have to worry about the Washington R-words. So that's exciting.
MATIKA: That's a big come up. And also, you know, this year there's been a lot of statues taken down. You know, I wonder if they're going to be replaced with dope Indigenous people like you. I'd make a statue for you.
ADRIENNE: Please don't. I don't I don't need a statue. That's. But thank you. I guess I am honored. Maybe. But also, I mean, there's been some, like, major movement around Halloween, too. I just like helped out a little bit with Pinterest is doing this huge campaign to like remove offensive costumes from their site. And anytime you like, search on Pinterest for Indian or Native American Halloween costume, you get an educational pin that links to an article that I wrote about why it is bad. So that's cool. And Spirit Halloween store took all of their Native costumes off their website. So they're the largest Halloween retailer. That's a huge thing. So I think in the world of representations, we're doing a little better. Too bad we have a world ending election coming.
MATIKA: Yeah, and that's what we're here to talk about today. And we're going to talk a little about the nuance and complicity of saying "go vote" to Indian country. You know, because I always feel really uncomfortable being like, you should vote, you should vote. Knowing that I'm telling people to participate in a system that wasn't designed for them and that has tried to oppress them, assimilate them, terminate them, us, our communities, our sovereignty, our self-determination, our right to be who we are. And then, you know, could you just go participate in that system, please?
ADRIENNE: Right. Complicated. Yeah, to say the least.
MATIKA: Let's jump right in and talk a little about the history of the Native vote and the history of the suppression of the Native vote. I got to tell you that when Trump first got elected, I felt like so sick to my stomach. I and I spent a good amount of time reflecting on my own personal behavior, like thinking to myself, did I do enough to, you know, like try to make this not happen, you know, and the answer is, you know, I don't often talk about national politics, both through Project 562 on my blog personally, you know, because I I find it incredibly problematic and uncomfortable to talk about because, you know, we're living in a colonial state and the federal government has actively tried to eradicate us. And there's a long history of broken promises and broken treaties. Therefore, it feels very uncomfortable to say to my fellow Native people, you know, go vote in the system that's not meant for us that doesn't actually ever do the things that it's said it's going to do. But go vote anyways, you know, so it feels I feel like a hypocrite just saying it. But I really feel like we need to talk about it, right?
ADRIENNE: Yeah. It is by no means a simple decision for folks in Indian country. And I think that's really important to acknowledge and to think about as we start to talk about this election and what we need to do.
MATIKA: Right. And, you know, there has been a long history of active Native vote suppression for the first hundred and fifty years in this country. We weren't even allowed to vote. And then in 1924 came the Indian Citizenship Act, which formally made us US citizens. But states continued to prevent us from voting.
ADRIENNE: Right. I think sometimes there's memes and stuff that get posted where it's like going through the different marginalized groups and when they finally got the right to vote and it often says, like Native Americans 1924. But we know for a fact that that's not true because as you just said, most states still had things in place to prevent Native folks from voting, like it wasn't until 1948 that Natives in Arizona got the right to vote. And then all of that suppression that played into the passage of the Voting Rights Act. So in 1975. So the things like literacy tests or poll taxes or all of these suppression techniques that affected other communities of color, Black folks also affected Native folks as well.
MATIKA: There's all of these appalling facts that have led to all of these underlying issues and voting cases as to why our people have not shown up to the polls in the same numbers. You know, I I often get asked, you know, like, well, when I tell, when I'm having this conversations with non-Native people and say, yeah, like a lot of Native people that I know aren't don't vote. Or if you look at the numbers, you know, you would you might think to yourself, like, well, why wouldn't Native people be active in this process? And I just want to acknowledge that it's it's very systemic. Done on purpose.
ADRIENNE: Oh, absolutely. Yeah. And I mean this so we're like giving the dates from like 1924 or 1948, 1975. But like in 2018, North Dakota changed their ID laws to say that if you were voting you had to have an I.D. that had a street address on it. And most Native folks in North Dakota use P.O. boxes and don't have street addresses. So it was like an active step to try and suppress Native vote in North Dakota because Natives have power in voting in North Dakota and in a lot of states that have high Native population. So like this is an ongoing thing for Native communities.
MATIKA: And then that actually, that actually didn't work out well for North Dakota because all of these activists came together and got really good publicity. There was a lot of grassroots organizations. And then was it Ruth Buffalo ended up taking that seat anyways. So so, you know, I think that's a really good demonstration of the power of the Native vote, especially in rural areas of Turtle Island. What I should add to this conversation around. You know, like the power of the Native vote and the complicity of us even telling each other to vote is that, you know, we want to have a relationship with the people that get elected. Even if Biden beats Trump, it's not going to fix the colonial problem that we have, right?
ADRIENNE: Yeah, I mean, it's hard because there are definitely things we can talk about that are like. Immediate undoing of things that the Trump administration has done that have been really harmful to Native communities, but there is also an entire list of things that are not going to happen even under a Biden administration. And there's this quote that I saw on the wall of the Harvard Law School like years and years ago. And I think about it often in terms of these ideas of justice or like doing what's right from the federal government. I will say it's problematic because it's only attributed as a quote African proverb, which obviously is really problematic. But the the quote is "Corn cannot expect justice from a court composed of chickens". And I think about that in terms of Natives asking for equal treatment or justice from the U.S. colonial government is like corn expecting justice from a court made of chickens like on the most obvious, I mean, we can extend the metaphor as long as we want, but like in that scenario, they want to eat us. They want us to disappear. And I think about that all the time.
MATIKA: Just to make it clear, to make it clear they want to eat us.
ADRIENNE: I mean, I'm laughing because I'm silly, not because the situation is not serious, because it is like our lives really depend on it.
MATIKA: Yeah. You know, I was really, really taken aback by the last debate when there was these obvious racial slurs being thrown around, you know, with in the very beginning that didn't seem to make national headlines. And then also the conversation didn't really center around him saying, like studying critical race theory is un-American. You know, like it was it was so offensive in so many ways. And I want to center Indigenous voices and especially I want to hear from you, Adrienne, about what you think about that as a professor of critical race theory.
ADRIENNE: I mean, it's critical race theory in that scenario has come to stand in for like something that he has imagined in his head. It's not the actual meaning behind the set of scholarship of critical race theory. And I don't know, like I have a whole syllabus about CRT that is online if folks really actually want to know about it and realize that it's just a framework for understanding the system of race and racism in what is currently known as the United States. It's not anything that is anti-white or whatever he seems to think it is. But yeah, I would be really surprised if Trump had actually read any critical race theory whatsoever.
MATIKA: I think it would be a good time now for us to talk a little bit about why this administration has been so harmful to Indian country, you know, for those that maybe haven't had a chance to reflect on it and it's in the wholeness. I mean, I don't know, maybe maybe it doesn't help at all to talk about why Trump has been so bad for us, because it just sort of brings you down. Like after I amassed this list, I was just like ah I felt sick all over again. Yeah. Like, you know, this is this is traumatic, you know, like. I feel like I'm in an abusive relationship.
ADRIENNE: Yeah, I mean, and that's always been our relationship with the government. Yeah, I mean, like we we can list things we can like talk about the, like, rollbacks to all of the environmental protection laws. We can talk about the pushing for drilling in the Arctic Refuge. We can I mean, there's on and on we can talk about so many things. The Mashpee Wampanoag Land Out of Trust case. And the reality is these are lived experiences for people in Indian country, like we're living this every day. So for non-Natives like these might seem like kind of small blips on the screen of all of the wildness going on in this administration. But like these are things that have such deep implications for our ability to have a relationship with the land. Like as I'm looking at this list, that's what a lot of these are. It's like if we're thinking about the border wall, if we're thinking about of advancing the construction of DAPL, like all of these things that we wrote down, just brainstorming and like, these are all, Bears Ears. These are all things about our ability to have a relationship with our land.
MATIKA: And our safety of body also. Yes. Right. And that those two are connected and that there isn't there there isn't separation between land and identity, you know, so an affront on the land is an affront on the body of Indigenous people, their nationhood, their sovereignty, but their their ability to carry on as far as the way that they see themselves, the way that they interact as human beings with the world around them. And so, like, you know. The difference between environmental protection movements or environmental justice is, as you know, like under a white framework, is very different than environmental justice in an Indigenous community. And I've been thinking about ways to discuss that for this chapter in my book and writing a lot about about it recently and reflecting on, you know, how each time our our land is violated, we we get further from from our traditional understandings of ourselves. And so I, I. I feel really personally attacked by this administration and, you know, I was thinking about this like what happened, like what happened with our relatives in Mashpee Wampanoag with taking the land out of trust and realizing that that's the first time that that's actually happened since the termination era. And that that that's a real thing that that is that we're still fighting is just the right to remain nations. And. And I just it just makes me sick.
ADRIENNE: Yeah. And I mean, Trump has been anti-Indigenous sovereignty on the deepest level since like the 90s. I mean, he lobbied in Congress at a hearing to stop gaming in the state of Connecticut and said something like incredibly racist things at that hearing in front of everyone about like that these are not real Indians because they don't look like Indians to him. And then there's a line that I quote in a lot of my talks, which has become even more ironic since we now know what Trump's tax returns look like. But he frames it that Natives are getting something unfairly. And he said, you're saying only Indians can have the reservations, only Indians can have the gaming. So why aren't you approving it for everybody? Why are you being discriminatory? Why is it that the Indians don't pay tax but everyone else does? I do. Which we now know is a big fat lie. But to me that's really scary that the president of what is currently known as the United States believes the inherent rights of sovereignty are discriminatory to white people is really scary to me.
ADRIENNE: NCIA has little info graphic that I was looking at, the National Congress of American Indians, and it's really helpful in kind of seeing the power of Native votes in a lot of these states that are kind of like purple, have possibilities of swinging blue. I mean, some of the examples of the margins of vote. So like the state of South Dakota has 55,000 eligible Native voters. And in 2002, Senator Tim Johnson, who's a Democrat, was reelected by 500 votes. And the pivotal votes, like the final ones that came in to push him over, came from Pine Ridge.
MATIKA: Right. And in 2010, Senator Lisa Murkowski, who's a Republican credit her victory to the Alaska Native voters that supported her as she was written in in the election.
ADRIENNE: Which is wild. And I mean, there's there's plenty more examples like John Tester in Montana won with less than 20,000 votes. And the support was really from tribal nations because there are 57.000 eligible Native voters in Montana on and on I think there are a lot of examples of how Natives can be really instrumental. I mean, there's almost three hundred and seventy thousand Native voters in the state of Oklahoma or one hundred and seventy nine thousand in the state of New Mexico. Like these are big numbers that can really make an actual change. But given those big numbers, according to NCIA, there are one point two million Native folks or thirty four percent of our population that are not registered to vote.
MATIKA: Voting, you know, like voting is about wielding power. You know, it's about doing what is in our best interest. And, you know, when we are voting, we're thinking about people that we want to employ and people that we can have a relationship with. So it's not just voting for the national presidential election, but, you know, voting all the way down, you know, through the entire ballot from the state to county and thinking about having relationships with those people and how having relationships with those people is going to impact our community, you know, and I think whether we want to participate in the election or not, we're definitely going to be impacted by the election. And so, you know, the way that, like every single aspect of our lives is will be impacted by this election. And that that gives me anxiety, too, because I think about like, you know, like personally what is going to happen in the next six months with our with our communities that are being so dramatically impacted by COVID.
ADRIENNE: I think of how many people from our communities we've had to go to funerals for and have lost and are permanently injured from COVID, and that was due to the federal government response and the communities that have been better off are the ones, the Native communities that took matters into their own hands and like did weekend lockdowns and prevented outsiders from coming in. And like in South Dakota, the tribes are the only ones who are doing any type of protection of their people. So, yeah, the federal government's not going to save us, but it also can really harm us in a lot of really scary ways.
MATIKA: So should you decide to vote, there's some really good resources and ways. You know, there's like everybody keeps talking about having a plan, you know, like have a plan to vote, get registered, find out, you know, like what's going to happen with your ballot in your state when the deadline is. Some of those have already passed, unfortunately, but there's still a lot of time and a lot of different places. And whether or not you are going to be able to mail in your ballot or whether you have to do that in person, you know, et cetera, et cetera. So for that, I really like votesaveamerica.com, because there's, you know, a really easy dropdown window for your state and to see what the rules are in your state and you can put in your zip code and from that you can you can also check to see if you're actually registered, because sometimes we think we're registered and then you go on to check it and you're like, oh, no, my address is actually changed.
ADRIENNE: And also, I recommend, look, I was going to do a mail in ballot for my state and I looked up the requirements online of the ways that your mail in ballot can get rejected. And one of them that I didn't even think about is that your signature has to match your signature on your state I.D. and my state ID signature or on my driver's license, I had to sign it on that little like pad thing and you can't see what you're signing and it looks like a total mess. There's no way I could replicate that if I wanted to. But if I didn't, then my ballot could be in danger of being thrown out. So things like that are important to be aware of and recognize and make sure that your vote really is going to count.
MATIKA: And then outside of that, there's other ways, you know, to to participate. One of the things that a lot of people have been talking to me about is the census. You know, like did you fill out your census yet? Like, my aunties keep asking me that question. And I'm like, no, I didn't. But I realized that it's very important, you know, because it's where allocates, you know, billions of dollars in federal funding and federal funding deeply impacts our programs on our tribes, you know.
ADRIENNE: We now have until October 31st to fill out the census. And that was something that that people had to fight for. And again, just like with voting, we recognized the inherent distrust of the federal government and who wants to give all your info to them. But it really is the way that a lot of federal funds that are promised to us through treaty obligations get to our communities and also making sure on the census to write your tribal name in the way that is accepted by the federal government because that's how they count tribal members. So like Choctaw Nation had a big campaign of of writing in Choctaw Nation because they wanted to make sure there was it was easy to tell between Choctaw Nation and Mississippi Choctaw. So thinking about those kinds of things are important as well. There also are a bunch of other podcasts that are coming out just about Native voting, like Indian Collective has a new one called Sko Vote Den that you can listen to. But I think and we'll put the links in the show notes so you can hear those conversations because they're really powerful, too. But I think the more information, the better. And the more resources, the better and the more informed people can feel about their decision whether to vote or not is really important to me.
MATIKA: Yeah, yeah. And, you know, like the uprising is happening. It is not OK that the Trump administration or that Trump at the last debate was talking like refuses to condemn white supremacy. That is that is not OK. And so now we we are given no choice but to have these discussions over and over and over again because we believe, you know, or would like to move towards equality. Ideally, you know, like, hey, can we talk about liberation and justice? I mean, you know,
ADRIENNE: Well, corn cannot expect justice from a court made of chickens. But I mean, that's actually the very important point, is that. I definitely don't see voting or participating in this system as the end goal, and I think that's very clear from our tone with this. Like I see this as a necessity for this moment that we are in because our lives really do depend on it. But I also think that we need to keep doing the amazing work that we're already doing within our communities to build these otherwise spaces, to imagine an Indigenous future that doesn't include the racist federal government that can be rooted in our our Indigenous values and knowledges and all of these things that we talk about on the podcast. That's what I want, is I want that future that is outside of the system of colonization. But we need to keep building that while we vote right now because it's not one or the other. It's both for me as one person.
MATIKA: Yeah, right they're. They're not mutually exclusive. So I just want to say to all of our relatives out there that I know it's a tough time right now and that we're in this collective moment and that we're with you in spirit and mind and in solidarity, that my prayers and my love go out to all of you and each and every one of you and thanks for listening. And we hope that that you are able to get through the next couple of weeks, you know, with as little emotional fatigue as possible. I know it's been a really challenging time for me emotionally. And and I feel exhausted by this current political moment. And so I want to extend my love and prayers to all of you.
ADRIENNE: I agree. I just have been thinking so much about all of you out there and all of our relatives who are experiencing so many challenging things all at once because of the pandemic and because of the political climate and because of the normal everyday experience of being an Indigenous person in this country. And it's hard. And I mean, like we've taken kind of a light tone with some of this conversation, but it's it's definitely not a light conversation. And just echoing Matika as good thoughts and prayers to everyone and knowing that we send our love out, as always.
MATIKA: Mm hmm.
ADRIENNE: Go vote if you want to.
ADRIENNE: That's our slogan. Vote if you want to and maybe bring your grandma with you or uncle or cousin. Yeah.
MATIKA: And like, go vote if you can. I mean, like, let's just like we didn't even acknowledge the fact that for some people like like in Navajo Nation
ADRIENNE: Oh my God, you got to drive six hours to go vote. Yeah.
MATIKA: You know, and that's a real part of voter suppression.
ADRIENNE: How about OK, let's amend the slogan to go vote if you want to and if you can.

"Creative Technologist" Natalia Rojas has mapped the profile photos of Facebook's 1,267,191,915 (and counting) users on just one web page. "The Faces of Facebook" is organized from top left to bottom right by the date each user joined Facebook, and in total creates a glitchy, vibrant, and awe-inspiring image. By clicking the location symbol and plugging in your Facebook credentials, you can pinpoint your place in the colorful mess, as well as the place of all your Facebook friends.
Rojas doesn't offer much of an artist statement about her latest project, aside from one observation reminiscent of Carl Sagan's thoughts on seeing "Pale Blue Dot," a famous image of Earth taken by the Voyager 1 probe. She writes, "There we are, all mixed up: large families, women wearing burkas, many Leo Messis, people supporting same-sex marriages or r4bia, chihuahuas, Indian Gods, tourists pushing the leaning Tower of Pisa, selfies, newborns, Ferraris," and more. She almost seems to say that despite all our differences, we can all still fit inside one space, and in aggregate, look very much one and the same.

Cloud computing has revolutionized service delivery by providing on-demand invocation and elasticity. To reap these benefits, computation has been displaced from client devices and into data centers. This partial centralization is undesirable for applications that have stringent locality requirements, for example low latency. This problem could be addressed with large numbers of smaller cloud resources closer to users. However, as cloud computing diffuses from within data centers and into the network, there will be a need for cloud resource allocation algorithms that operate on resource-constrained computational units that serve localized subsets of customers. In this paper we present a mechanism for service provisioning in distributed clouds where applications compete for resources. The mechanism operates by enabling execution zones to assign resources based on Vickrey auctions, and provides high-quality probabilistic models that applications can use to predict the outcomes of such auctions. This allows applications to use knowledge of the locality distribution of their clients to accurately select the number of bids to be sent to each execution zone and their value. The proposed mechanism is highly scalable, efficient and validated by extensive simulations.

USCGC Boutwell (WHEC-719) was a United States Coast Guard high endurance cutter based out of San Diego, California. Named for George S. Boutwell, United States Secretary of the Treasury under President Ulysses S. Grant. Boutwell engaged in many Coast Guard missions, including search and rescue, law enforcement, maritime security, and national defense.

Boutwell was decommissioned on March 16, 2016 at Naval Base San Diego, California. She was then sold to the Philippines as Excess Defense Article (EDA) and rechristened the , becoming  the third  cutter to be transferred to the Philippine Navy.

History

USCGC Boutwell was the fifth of the Coast Guard's fleet of  high endurance cutters. She was built in 1967 in the Avondale Shipyards in New Orleans, Louisiana.  She was launched on 17 June 1967, and her launching sponsor was Mrs. Douglas Dillon. After she was commissioned in 1968, she proceeded to her first home port, Boston, Massachusetts. In 1973 she moved to Seattle, Washington, where she remained until she entered the Fleet Renovation and Modernization Program in 1990. Once her renovation was complete she moved to Coast Guard Island in Alameda, California. In 2011 she relocated to San Diego, California, to replace the decommissioned high endurance cutter .

In 1980 Boutwell conducted the largest at-sea rescue ever achieved, when she rescued more than 500 people from the burning cruise ship  in the Gulf of Alaska. When the  halibut fishing vessel Comet sank in the Bering Sea approximately  northeast of Dutch Harbor, Alaska, after her engine room flooded, Boutwell rescued her crew of four after they had been in the water for only four minutes. In 1998, Boutwell made the largest high-seas drift net arrest in Coast Guard history.

Boutwell participated in the 2003 invasion of Iraq. She defended the oil terminals off the coasts of Iraq and Iran. For her many accomplishments and continued excellence, Boutwell received the Admiral John B. Hayes Award for Unit Excellence.  In 2005, she seized  of cocaine over US$900 million using the newly developed Go-Fast Response Team. With the help of a helicopter from the new Helicopter Interdiction Tactical Squadron (HITRON), Boutwell demonstrated a capability to stop and seize drugs from every go-fast boat she pursued.

Boutwell was recognized as the 2013 Forrest O. Rednour Memorial Award Large Afloat Dining Facility and as the second-place winner for the 2014 Large Unit Afloat MWR [Morale, Welfare, and Recreation] Program of the Year. In October 2014, Boutwell completed a noteworthy counterdrug deployment in support of the U.S. Coast Guard's Western Hemisphere Strategy; this deployment was cited by Commandant of the Coast Guard Admiral Paul Zukunft as an example of how better integration of operations and intelligence can have an impact on smuggling in the Western Hemisphere.

After U.S. President Barack Obama announced during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Economic Leaders' Meeting in November 2015 that concluded the 2015 APEC summit in Manila that the United States would make a U.S. Coast Guard high endurance cutter and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography research vessel  available to the Philippines, Boutwell was decommissioned on 16 March 2016 at Naval Base San Diego, California, and sold to the Philippines as an excess defense article (EDA). Boutwell was the third  to be transferred to the Philippine Navy.

Q: Table TR TD align cell fixed at bottom? I'm trying to get my row/cell that displays "Daily total" to stick to the bottom .. as you can see in my image one is higher than the other because of an extra entry inputted...

i've tried many different valign and vertical-align but cant figure it out.. maybe someone can help me?
here is the html for that tr/td:
echo "
Daily Total: " . calcMinutes($dailytotal) . "
";

A: much better to use a css rule than attributes

EDIT: it's also better to assign this style to a class and assign also this class to your td

CATCHED THE ERROR:
You are applying valign to inner td, not container one.
Your td cointainer have to look like this:

however, valign it's not more supported in HTML5, so try to include it as css. More, avoid this inner tables, are really hard to manage !

A: You should use the following for your td in css:
td {
    vertical-align:bottom
}

Also make sure that you don't forget to add the table tags to your code like so:

            Daily Total 1

            Daily Total 2

            Daily Total

You will find a fiddle demo here
Additionally you may want to review what you have added in your daily_total_style css class; something in there might be interfering with your code.
EDITED: I updated your fiddle you just created with the above and it works fine: check it out here

A: You can include a blank row between the 1st and last row and then set fixed widths for all the table data, It will make both the tables look more similar to each other if they both have 3 rows

The Institut Catholique de Toulouse (or ICT) is a Catholic university in Toulouse, France.

The Catholic Institute of Toulouse (ICT) is a private institution of higher education including the humanities and social sciences, law and theology, as well as polytechnics.

Located in the historic center of Toulouse, in buildings constructed between the fourteenth and eighteenth century, the Institute is shared between the various faculties and institutes. It has three auditoriums, a library, a chapel, numerous rooms, research laboratories, an archaeological and historical museums. Located on the site of the old house where Saint Dominic lived. The school shared its name with an ancient Catholic University of Toulouse, which St Dominic helped found in 1229 with Saint Thomas Aquinas, whose tomb lies the church of the Jacobins. An 1880 law forced private schools to stop using the name "University", the university has been known since as the Catholic Institute of Toulouse.

The Catholic Institute of Toulouse is one of five universities founded by the bishops of France.

The Catholic Institute of Toulouse is a member of the International Federation of Catholic Universities, which includes 200 Catholic universities across the world and is one of 5 French Catholic institutes, including with Angers, Lille, Lyon and Paris.

On December 18, 2008, French government officials and the Vatican signed a decree in Paris regarding the recognition of diplomas, which entered into force on April 16, 2009 entered into force. The university's qualifications, certificates and diplomas have been recognized around the world.

Controversy
In October 2017 a big internal crisis emerged related to the gouvernance of the Catholic University of Toulouse when the rector decided to fire the dean of Philosophy Andrea Bellantone accused of harassment.  After the matter became public, the bishops decided to step in to calm the situation. Both the dean and the rector were kept in place. Following that scandal, the rector Luc-Thomas Somme decided to resign a year later resulting in the resignations of philosophy professors and students.

Folarin Balogun: Is Nigeria wonderkid proving Arsenal wrong?
Shina Oludare - @sportingshina
19:51 SAST 2022/10/02
Folarin Balogun registered his name in the records books thanks to his goal as Reims secured a 2-2 draw at Troyes in Sunday's Ligue 1 outing.
Balogun on song for Reims
Set a record in Top 5 leagues
Could return to Arsenal
WHAT HAPPENED? Reims got a point in their outing at Stade de l'Aube. The Nigeria prospect put the Red and Whites ahead in the 12th minute after profiting from a pass from Junya Ito. With that, he took his tally in the 2022-23 campaign to six, more than any other player born in the 21st century among the European top five leagues this season. Despite their early lead, his team could not secure all three points as Bruno Irles and his men clawed back to ensure that the thrilling encounter ended on a no-winner, no vanquished note.
WHAT THEY SAID: Before heading for his second loan move, Balogun revealed what Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta told him. "Before I moved, Mikel (Arteta) just wanted me to develop as a man. It was kind of like an open answer and it was for me to interpret what I meant by 'develop as a man'.," he said to Metro.co.uk.
"By moving abroad, I'm starting to learn what he meant by that. It doesn't just mean on the pitch but also off the pitch. I think by the time I go back I'll be in a better place to compete than I was before I left."
THE BIGGER PICTURE: A product of Arsenal academy, the 21-year-old struggled to break into the Gunners' first team since his senior debut against Dundalk in October 2020. That prompted his move to Middlesbrough for the rest of the 2021-22 campaign.
Declared surplus to requirement in Arteta's squad, he was shipped to the French elite division to earn regular playing experience. His notable form could inspire Arsenal to recall him to the Emirates Stadium to help add strength to Arsenal's attack alongside Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli.
WHAT MORE? Judging by current form, that could inspire coach Jose Peseiro to hand him a Nigeria invite. Although Balogun has represented England and the United States of America at various youth levels, Balogun remains eligible to represent the three-time African champions as he is born to Nigerian parents in New York City before moving to England.
IN THREE PICTURES:
DID YOU KNOW? Balogun joined Arsenal at the age of eight after being scouted while playing for his previous Sunday League side, Aldersbrook.
WHAT'S NEXT FOR BALOGUN? The youngster will be hoping to be among the goals when they welcome Lionel Messi's Paris Saint-Germain to Stade Auguste-Delaune on October 8.

The Devil's Advocate is often an effective role that can help uncover logical weaknesses for a point of view. For those that are unfamiliar with this term, the Devil's Advocate takes a position that they do not necessarily agree with for the sake of debate. I usually do it to learn more about the topic the proponent is advocating; I'll admit, sometimes I just do it to push buttons.


The recent, unprecedented upsurge in attacks on retail businesses makes it clear that cyber criminals have now turned more of their attention – and formidable skills – to cashing in on the sector's rich cache of confidential data.
According to MessageLabs, the number of attacks that specifically targeted the retail sector jumped to 516 in just one month during Q4 2010, compared to the earlier average of 7 attacks per month for much of that same year. It also marked the first time in recent years that the retail sector became the focus of a major targeted attack campaign.
This white paper examines five steps to better security that today's retail businesses can't afford to ignore on their networks - from application control to data loss prevention - to ensure business continuity and PCI DSS compliance.


A McDonald's chicken farm received an inspection from the founder of Chipotle Mexican Grill once. What CEO Steve Ells found repulsed him.
McDonald's and Chipotle had practically been partner businesses for years, starting in 1998 when it helped the Mexican food chain grow from just 14 locations. By 2005, it had grown to 460 restaurants with the help of the fast food burger chain, and soon became independent.
You couldn't tell that by the way they prepare their food, though, claims Bloomberg, as the two restaurants are about as different as they're likely to get. For health-conscious consumers, this may be an indication that McDonald's should be avoided.
The publication claims that Chipotle hand prepares their food every day and puts a lot of money into the process, and the success of the chain indicates that consumers are more than grateful. McDonald's is one of many fast food chains which allegedly buys questionable food products, such as for their McRib, and uses microwaves to cook or re-heat a lot of things.
Chipotle had resisted many of McDonald's early suggestions, and according to the public view of both franchises, they rocketed past their mentor. McDonald's is now seeing one of its greatest business losses in years.
Chipotle chief operations officer Gretchen Selfridge told the press that the fast food chain certainly had the best intentions.
After the founder visited the McDonald's chicken farm, Chipotle founder Steve Ells' comment may have led to the fast food chain cutting them off. Even some of McDonald's former leaders have allegedly left for the Mexican grill. Sadly, that may have been a favor considering what the burger chain's reputation these days has become, as previously reported by the Inquisitr.
Does Chipotle founder Steve Ells' statement about the McDonald's chicken farm in Arkansas surprise you?

How Richard Nixon Changed NASA
John Logsdon's new book shows how the post-Apollo era was defined by Richard Nixon
In 1969, the Apollo 11 mission successfully met President John F. Kennedy's challenge to land a man on the Moon and return him safely to Earth within the decade. The end of the Moon race raised the question: what, if anything, was next for NASA? It would be answered by Richard Nixon's Administration, and the decisions they made altered the nation's relationship with its space program forever.
President Nixon Examines the Space Shuttle Concept President Richard M. Nixon and Dr. James C. Fletcher, NASA Administrator, discuss the proposed Space Shuttle vehicle in San Clemente, California, on January 5, 1972. NASA
On September 22, I attended a talk by George Washington University Professor Emeritus and Planetary Society Board Member John Logsdon at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. Professor Logsdon spoke about Richard Nixon's space legacy and previewed his upcoming book titled After Apollo: Richard Nixon and the American Space Program, which is due for release by Palgrave-MacMillan in March 2015.
Professor Logsdon spent the last several years poring through archival materials and conducting interviews to unveil a detailed account of the activities in President Richard Nixon's White House, which certainly makes for a fascinating story. But Logsdon takes the tale a step further, using his extensive knowledge of space policy and many years of experience in the space policy community to examine the implications of the Nixon Administration's decisions.
The Nixon Space Doctrine
Professor Logsdon offers the provocative argument that President Nixon had a more lasting impact on NASA than John F. Kennedy, when considered over the longer history of the agency. Logsdon cites a statement issued by President Nixon on March 7, 1970, as the best illustration of Nixon's "Space Doctrine," suggesting that the tenets of this doctrine have remained the core of U.S. space policy to date.
Pondering the future of NASA and its sustainability, Nixon said, "We must think of [space activities] as part of a continuing process… and not as a series of separate leaps, each requiring a massive concentration of energy. Space expenditures must take their proper place within a rigorous system of national priorities. … What we do in space from here on in must become a normal and regular part of our national life and must therefore be planned in conjunction with all of the other undertakings which are important to us."
Logsdon points to three key decisions Nixon made regarding the U.S. space program, which had long-term consequences for NASA. The three decisions were:
To treat the space program as one area of domestic policy competing with other concerns, not as a privileged activity
To lower U.S. ambitions in space by ending human spaceflight beyond low Earth orbit for the foreseeable future and not embark on another space goal requiring a massive investment similar to Apollo
To build NASA's post-Apollo program around the space shuttle without establishing a specific goal or long-term strategy the shuttle would support
Professor Logsdon says that Nixon's lasting imprint on the space program was an end to human exploration of space beyond low Earth orbit in the twentieth century, and he sees the Nixon Space Doctrine and more ambitious human space exploration as incompatible. Under Nixon, NASA became just another domestic program, and the agency's budget decreased even as it retained ambitious goals. During this time, however, NASA's efforts did include increased international participation in U.S. human spaceflight programs.
Interesting Points
Professor Logsdon briefly described the events of Nixon's presidency as they related to space, revealing many fascinating anecdotes. I have included a few interesting tidbits, though there are plenty more in the book:
Nixon saw the Apollo 11 mission as an opportunity to tie achievements in space to his foreign policy goals, which he gave much higher priority. He made a great effort to ensure he was fully identified with the mission and its success, and he never once mentioned John F. Kennedy in connection with Apollo.
Nixon wanted former astronaut Frank Borman, commander of Apollo 8, to be the next NASA Administrator, but he had to settle for NASA Deputy Administrator Tom Paine.
Nixon's 1971 budget included a 10 percent reduction for NASA, so the agency was not rewarded for the success of Apollo 11.
Nixon supported increased international cooperation in space, but he thought that should primarily mean flying foreign astronauts on U.S. space craft, particularly German, Japanese, British, and French astronauts. NASA leadership anticipated that international cooperation would include hardware contributions from other nations.
Nixon wanted to change NASA into an applied technology development agency, but the effort failed.
Nixon is often blamed for the cancellation of the final two planned Apollo missions, but Logsdon emphasizes that NASA Administrator Tom Paine agreed to give up the Saturn V in order to free up resources in the budget for the shuttle and station programs. It was NASA that also chose to cancel the last two Apollo flights to channel resources to the space shuttle program.
Nixon was the first U.S. President to see a human space launch (Apollo 12).
Nixon was apparently deeply affected by the near tragic events of Apollo 13, and felt very connected to the crew during their ordeal. As a result, Nixon proposed to cancel Apollo 16 and 17 ahead of the 1972 election, for fear that something could go wrong with one of the missions and impact his re-election bid.
In December 1972, as Apollo 17 was returning to Earth, Nixon issued a statement saying, "This may be the last time in this century that men will walk on the Moon."
Professor Logsdon outlined a number of conclusions regarding the Nixon Administration's choices for the U.S. space program, which are fully discussed in his book. In one of his more poignant observations, he noted,
"One can argue that Nixon made a major policy mistake in mandating that the space program should be treated as just one of many domestic government programs competing for limited resources. Advocates for the last 40+ years have called for NASA budget increases and for treating the space program as 'special.' But it is also possible to argue that Nixon's decision that U.S. space ambitions should be adjusted to the funds made available through the normal policy process was a valid reading of public preferences, and there were and still are no countervailing public policy reasons to reject those preferences. As his young assistant Tom Whitehead commented, 'no compelling reason to push space was ever presented to the White House by NASA or anyone else.' What has happened is the least desirable outcome - for more than 40 years there has been a mismatch between space ambitions and the resources provided to achieve them."
In the question and answer portion of the talk, an audience member asked Logsdon what he saw as the biggest problem with the human space flight program today. He referenced the recent report "Pathways to Exploration" by the National Research Council on the human spaceflight program, saying that people tend to focus on Chapter Four which assesses the various technical pathways to get (eventually) to Mars, while ignoring Chapters Two and Three which show that there is no compelling public support for a human mission to Mars. Marcia Smith, former director of the Space Studies Board and publisher of SpacePolicyOnline.com, pointed out that there is also no compelling resistance to a human Mars mission. Logsdon agreed, and said that a lack of a public opinion on the matter meant that the only way out of the current situation is through Presidential leadership.
Professor Logsdon is Professor Emeritus and founder of the Space Policy Institute at George Washington University. His previous book, John F. Kennedy and the Race to the Moon , met with rave reviews, and in his talk he said he plans to complete his "trilogy" with a book on the Ronald Reagan Administration's impact on the U.S. space program. I'd like to thank him for providing very timely corrections to this post, and for sending me a copy of his slides from the International Astronautical Congress the same day he presented there. As a side note, he mentioned to me that the Planetary Society is "here in force" at the IAC!
Professor Logsdon's talk was the 13th presentation of the Space Policy and History Forum organized by Dr. Roger Launius, associate director of the National Air and Space Museum, and Dr. Nathan Bridges of the Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory. If you find yourself in the Washington, D.C. area and are interested in attending one of the forums, keep an eye on Dr. Launius' blog for announcements of upcoming events (and tons of other interesting information).

To celebrate 2019's National Forest Products Week, the SLB launched the Think Wood Mobile Tour at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., on October 22. The interactive, museum-quality traveling exhibit showcases the environmental and economic benefits of wood products and their expanding potential for commercial, multifamily, and residential construction. The exhibit uses building models, kiosks, and multimedia tools to tell the story of wood from the forest to the market and to educate and inspire building professionals to build with wood. Recent code changes that allow for taller wood buildings make this a particularly opportune time to promote innovations in wood products.
"The Think Wood Mobile Tour provides a window into the possibilities of wood for developers, architects, engineers, and other stakeholders across the country," said Ryan Flom, Chief Marketing Officer at the SLB. "Where most see just a tree, we see the future of the built environment."

The American Wood Council (AWC) and International Code Council (ICC) have jointly released the new 2015/2018 Structural Wood Design Examples publication to support the structural design of wood buildings. The guide features over 20 wood building examples using both allowable stress design (ASD) and load and resistance factor design (LRFD), as permitted by building codes. Examples range from simple to complex, and together they offer complete solutions for wood member design, connections, and shear walls, making the publication useful to code officials, designers, or any member of the building community seeking to gain a more complete understanding of wood design and construction.
Numerical solutions provided in the guide work under the 2015 and 2018 National Design Specification® for Wood Construction and AWC's 2015 Special Design Provisions for Wind and Seismic and 2015 and 2018 Wood Frame Construction Manual for One- and Two-Family Dwellings, as appropriate. Each of these AWC standards are referenced in building codes.
The Design Examples guide is available to download free here. Physical copies will be available for purchase from ICC.
WoodWorks recently provided technical support to the team developing the new, 32,000-square-foot Latitude Dining Commons on the campus of the University of California, Davis. The project, led by Otto Construction and HED Design, includes a 500-seat dining hall, a full commercial kitchen, multiple food platforms, and convenience options. The building's design uses exposed wood structures, pitched roofs, and large expanses of glass to provide natural lighting. The building is expected to achieve a minimum LEED Gold certification and is the latest example of mass timber proving an optimal choice for America's sustainability-minded college campuses.

The USDA Forest Service recently published a new infographic to educate the public on forests' critical ability to store carbon dioxide, even after trees have been sustainably harvested and converted into lumber, paper, and thousands of other commonly used products. Wood's inherent carbon benefits are in sharp contrast to the emissions created by fossil fuels, which the atmosphere has no way of recycling, renewing, or regenerating.
The USDA notes that when people use wood-based products in place of fossil fuel-intensive products like concrete and plastic, there is a permanent benefit to the Earth's atmosphere. For example, buildings framed in wood release 26 percent less carbon than steel-framed buildings and 31 percent less than concrete-framed buildings. If a wood house stands for 150 years, it will store carbon until it decays or is replaced. In that time, the forest will have regrown, resulting in additional carbon storage.
Read more about the comparative benefits of wood-based products here.
Milwaukee's planning commission recently approved changes to New Land Enterprises' Ascent residential project, allowing the building to grow from 21 to 23 stories. The approved revision also adds 26 units to the project, bringing the total up to 231, and 50 more parking spaces, bringing the number to 301. The building's 8,100-square-foot ground-floor commercial space was not affected by the changes.
WoodWorks and other tall wood advocates will be closely watching and eagerly awaiting the completion of Ascent, which, thanks to its height, will help the United States keep pace with peers in Europe who have been building tall with wood for over a decade and will breach the 21-story mark by the end of 2019. Ascent and other tall wood buildings in the United States are also important in helping to reinforce that tall wood buildings are as safe and perform as well as buildings made from other materials, while offering a more sustainable solution.

A Canadian firm has brought a new, prefabricated CLT building system to the market. Holz100 is a large construction made of large, high-quality moon wood CLT panels, which are connected only by beech wood dowels, not glue, nails, chemicals, or other adhesives.
The mass size of Holz100 takes advantage of the inherent fire resistance of heavy timber, with the surface layers charring and acting as insulating layers against the onset of heat to the inner layers of wood. The absence of chemicals and adhesives means that there is no additional fuel to further ignite fire or cause weakening from heat-induced delamination.
According to the manufacturer, a Holz100 house can withstand flames of 900 to 1000°C for 150 minutes without losing structural integrity; this exceeds all minimum time limits required by EU and UK building codes and makes the product roughly six times safer than reinforced concrete or stud-structured brick walls.

A team of researchers from the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design at the University of Arkansas is studying how the CLT used in the construction of the university's newest dormitory, Adohi Hall, behaves when exposed to moisture. At 200,000 square-feet, Adohi Hall is the United States' first large-scale mass timber residence hall and features two one-story podium buildings topped by four stories of CLT floor and ceiling panels and glue-laminated timber columns and beams.
Using a $100,000 grant from the U.S. Endowment for Forestry and Communities, the research team installed 135 wireless, battery-powered sensors on CLT portions of the building that are likely to be exposed to moisture, including in bathrooms, kitchens, the laundry, roof, and exterior walls. The sensors will take and transmit a moisture reading every 30 minutes, with the team analyzing collected data at the end of the first year and again after two subsequent years of data collection. Based on resistance measured, the team expects to be able to correlate the moisture content of each panel.
This research will help fill a current knowledge gap regarding the long-term effect of moisture on CLT and will influence future, broader use of CLT by design and construction professionals in the region.

Washington-based Fibre Federal Credit Union is building a new branch of its subsidiary, TLC Federal Credit Union, in Warrenton, Ore., featuring a CLT roof made with Douglas fir and glue-laminated timber posts and beams. Fibre Federal chose CLT as an affordable way to incorporate exposed wood, in keeping with the natural environment and character of the Pacific Northwest.
The posts, beams, and roof all came preassembled from KLH Massive Wood in Austria, which was contracted based on its ability to meet the project's rapid timeline. The structure was erected in only two weeks and expects to be open for business in late 2019. Despite this project sourcing with a European supplier, analysts expect that European producers will increasingly lose their edge over the United States as more local mills come online. The global CLT market, valued at $670 million in 2016, is expected to grow to more than $2.3 billion by 2025, according to Transparency Market Research.
Read more about this project here.
British Columbia's Adera Development Corporation has chosen CLT as the key material in its six-story, 72-unit Duet condo building currently under development as well as in its planned stacked townhouse project, both in Coquitlam. Adera chose CLT for the overall cost savings compared with concrete or standard stick-frame construction as well as for its environmental benefits, labeling CLT as "smart wood."
Adera is confident that it will be able to transmit CLT's cost savings on to consumers; it is currently preselling condos at the Duet project from $700 per square foot, which is considerably less than the price in new concrete condo towers in Coquitlam, which range from $850 to $955 per square foot.

In early October, Andrew Waugh, a founding director of London-based Waugh Thistleton Architects, spoke at a symposium on design excellence in timber and wood hosted by the University of Arkansas' Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design and the U.S. Forest Service. Following the symposium, Waugh was a featured guest on the Ozarks at Large radio program. During his radio interview, Waugh stressed that architects must play a leading role in the effort to combat climate change as buildings account for a large share of the planet's carbon emissions. Waugh urged the building sector to focus on reducing emissions at the construction stage—by considering the materials used, process of construction, and maintenance—instead of the historical focus on the emissions associated with a building's operations. Replacing concrete with timber is a key and immediate step the sector should make to cut carbon.

RDon Powell, principal of the Dallas-based architecture firm BOKA Powell, recently discussed his own conversion to mass timber and its emergence in Texas in Commercial Real Estate. Powell was first turned on to mass timber several years ago following a conversation about Hines' T3 mass timber office building in Minneapolis, which opened his eyes to the role of mass timber as a viable structural system for office buildings, hotels, and multistory housing.
Powell went on offense, next meeting with Texas firm StructureCraft to determine a pathway for constructing mass timber buildings in Texas. StructureCraft wisely saw a need for early engagement by mass timber designers and a need for turnkey delivery of timber components in order to alleviate schedule, cost, and quality concerns for prospective owners and developers. Powell continued to educate himself about mass timber construction, including structural bay sizes, column sizes, optimal beam depths, and how other building components can be adapted to work harmoniously with wood.
In early 2017, Powell earned his chance to build with wood, winning the commission to design the Soto, a six-story mass timber office building for Hixon Properties in San Antonio. The Soto is the first mass timber office building in Texas and features striking interior finished wood that sets it apart in the local office building market.
Oregon State University (OSU) recently celebrated the opening of the A.A. "Red" Emmerson Advanced Wood Products Laboratory, a new facility dedicated to researching and testing mass timber in commercial buildings. Located at OSU's main campus in Corvallis, Ore., the 17,500-square-foot lab is part of the College of Forestry's new Oregon Forest Science Complex, which broke ground in 2016.
The lab will house the TallWood Design Institute, a research collaborative between OSU and the University of Oregon that supports upward of 30 professors to study mass timber in tall commercial buildings, including as it relates to fire performance, building physics, and environmental impact. In 2018, Oregon became the first state to adopt building codes that allow for wood-framed buildings up to 18 stories tall. The new code changes and OSU's investment in mass timber research and design serve as important harbingers for mass timber's growth in Oregon and beyond.
Emmerson, for whom the lab is named, founded Sierra Pacific Industries in 1949. His son, George Emmerson, graduated from OSU in 1978 and is now the company president as well as chairman of the SLB.

Concrete has come under sustained criticism for its disproportionate contributions to greenhouse gas emissions, and the industry is rapidly working to develop and bring to market greener versions of its products. Landscape Architecture Magazine recently provided an overview of several emerging technologies that are designed to improve the carbon footprint of concrete. Although many remain under development, some, including carbon sequestration in concrete and substantial reductions of cement using energetically modified cement, are now commercially available.
Read more about these products here.
A group of experts at the recent Architecture of Emergency climate summit in London emphasized concrete's unique and dangerous contribution to greenhouse gas emissions, arguing that as the planet approaches risky climate tipping points, the front-loaded cost of concrete construction is likely too high.
Timber, compressed-earth bricks, and bio composite materials like hempcrete, which is made of hemp and lime, were cited among the possible alternatives to concrete in building construction, with timber being cited as among the best solutions, provided it is managed and harvested sustainably.

SpaceX puts 114 satellites into orbit during its 200th launch
Leofric Averille January 4, 2023 3 min read
The American private space company SpaceX successfully launched 114 satellites into space on January 3, 2022. The powerful Falcon 9 rocket took off from the Cape Canaveral launch site in Florida, the lower stage of which has already been used for the 15th time. This successful mission also marked the 200th launch of a rocket developed by SpaceX;
During SpaceX's Transporter-6 mission, a total of 114 satellites were launched into space. The first satellite was evacuated 58 minutes after launch and 33 minutes after the last. In addition to dozens of small so-called "cube satellites", which often weigh no more than 5 kilograms, the first Earth observation satellite, the EOS SAT, was put into orbit during this mission. The EOS SAT-1 weighs 180 kilograms and was developed by EOS Data Analytics (EOSDA). This company wants to have a network of seven Earth observation satellites in orbit by 2025 that can be used to study crops, agriculture and forests in detail. The data these satellites will collect should, among other things, teach companies and scientists more about where is best to plant or which crops are best used in particular locations. With the Transporter missions, SpaceX wants to give companies and scientific institutions the opportunity to launch small satellites like CubeSats into space at a low cost because they launch in large numbers at the same time.
More than thirty satellites launched during this launch come from the US company Planet and are used for commercial Earth observation applications. Planet was founded in 2010 and has already launched several hundred small satellites into space. All these nanosatellites will be called a "dove" and weigh no more than five kilograms. Planet Now is also a listed company with approximately 500 employees. This company aims to photograph the entire Earth's surface each day in high resolution in order to quickly see changes and certain trends.

Among the many small satellites were also the Norwegian-Dutch nanosatellites Birkeland and Huygens. Satellites are not much larger than a carton of milk. It is about further development of equipment on Break 2, the first satellite that was successfully launched last year. With both new satellites, control experience can also be gained. This is not possible with BRIK II. The satellites are controlled from Norway and given missions by the Norwegian and Dutch operators. The names of the nanosatellites are references to the Norwegian physicist Christian Olaf Birkeland and the Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens. The system flies in tandem formation at an altitude of about 550 km in Earth orbit, at a distance of 15 to 25 km. This allows the satellites to simultaneously record signals and detect and identify specific radar systems. The satellites were developed within the MilSpace2 program. This is a collaborative project between the Dutch and Norwegian Ministries of Defense, the Norwegian FFI and NanoAvionics, and the Dutch Knowledge Institutes NLR and TNO. The MilSpace2 project will ultimately provide a specialized capability that is both strategic and operationally relevant. Strategic Mutual Assistance in Research and Technology (SMART), Military Use of Space (MilSpace) and Scientific and Technological Cooperation are elements of the agreement between the Norwegian and Dutch defense ministries.
This was the 200th launch conducted by the American aerospace company SpaceX since it was founded by Elon Musk in 2002. During this launch, the same low stage was also used for the 15th time. In 2023, SpaceX will launch at least 60 Falcon 9 or Falcon Heavy rockets, making SpaceX the most successful space company in the world.

What are the different types of home services?
Talk to a HCA consultant today to understand what services can be provided under your NDIS plan. Our packages are tailored to your individual needs and may include supports and services from other funded goals as required.
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) has been developed to improve choice and create better outcomes for people with a disability. You'll receive a plan from the NDIA which is based upon goals you'll set for yourself. Funding is provided, and you're free to choose from any registered NDIS provider.
Any goal which is considered reasonable and fair will be funded by the government. This can include support services to go about your daily life, as well as for goals such as learning to drive, learning to cook or creating independence in the community.
You can learn more about the NDIS on the official federal government NDIS website.
What is the free consultation that HCA Home offers?
Throughout your journey into the NDIS, we're here to support you and help you understand your options.
Our consultants have been working in the NDIS areas since the trials commenced in 2013 and we've built up a large amount of experience and knowledge around the NDIS.
We want to support your plan from start to finish and make sure you're really comfortable understanding your options, so we offer a free consult to anyone throughout Australia without any commitment from you.
What services and equipment does the NDIS provide?
The NDIS provides ongoing funding for all 'reasonable and necessary' disability equipment, care and support services.
In thinking about and developing your own individualised NDIS plan, you therefore need to consider all your daily activities and the aids, equipment, training and/or support that would make your life easier, whether currently provided or not.
Where does HCA Home provide home and community services?
We can provide Community and Home Services throughout Australia. Depending on how your plan is funded, some HCA Home services may be restricted in certain locations across Australia, however an HCA Home consultant can discuss your options and when such a service will be available to you in your area.
The NDIS operates within a range of eligibility criteria.
Age: You have to be aged between 0-65 years old (although already enrolled participants, once they turn 65, can choose either to continue with the NDIS or transfer to the aged care support system available to all Australians over 65).
Am I responsible for managing my own plan? Is there support available?
Nominating the NDIA to carry out this role.
A participant may request to use a Plan Management Provider, meaning you engage a business/organisation to undertake all financial and administrative processes involved on your behalf. This includes such tasks as paying supplier invoices, developing service agreements with providers, assisting you with the hiring and paying of staff and preparing reports and reconciliations on how NDIS funds are being used.
If you choose to nominate the NDIA for this role, the agency will make all the payments necessary to any registered care and/or support providers chosen by the participant.
Contact us by whatever means makes you feel most comfortable. Call 1300 422 111 or email complaints@hcahome.com.au. We value your opinion and that's why we have a dedicated team to respond to any concerns or issues you may have within 48 hours. We respect your privacy and assure your confidentiality.

Q: go get referring invalid tag I have been developing a go based binary and there was a strange issue that I can across with.
So I do have package A and package B, where package B is directly referred in package A.
Main App (Package A) uses Package B
and package B is referred via it's mod file.
So I have added the tagged release of package B for package A via go get packageB-ref@v1.1.0, but as I encountered some issue, I deleted that release and tag locally and on remote (Github) and created a tag based on the newer commit. Github confirms that the new release is based on the new reference, however while I was referring the same tag via the new commit, it was actually referring to the same old code version.
And most recently, just to fix and come over with the issue, I created a tag named v1.1.1, however though it fixed the issue, now even by the time I refer v1.1.0, it gives me the following message in the end.
root@CaesarPrime-AcerE5:/mnt/d/AppA# go get github.com/xxxx/B@master
go: downloading github.com/xxxx/B v1.11.0
go: downloading github.com/xxxx/xxxxz v0.3.2
go: downloading github.com/xxxx/xxxxd v1.1.1
go: downloading golang.org/xxxx/xxxxv v0.0.0-20220127200216-cd36cc0744dd
go: downloading golang.org/xxxx/xxxxb v0.3.7
go: downloading github.com/xxxx/xxxx v0.0.0-20170810143723-de5bf2ad4578
go: upgraded github.com/xxxx/B v1.1.0 => v1.1.1

I believe that this would be due to some caching issue as I do neither see tag v1.1.1 in either remote or my local. But how can this happen if go git is pulling content from a remote repository as it had been pulling some deleted late tags.
Or am I doing something awkwardly wrong here in package management?

A: You are right, the deleted tags probably exist in Go's public proxy
The go docs say:

Once a tag is created, it should not be deleted or changed to a
different revision. Versions are authenticated to ensure safe,
repeatable builds. If a tag is modified, clients may see a security
error when downloading it. Even after a tag is deleted, its content
may remain available on module proxies.

You may retract a version by putting a stanza like this in go.mod:
retract (
    v1.0.0 // Published accidentally.
    v1.0.1 // Contains retractions only.
)


I'm thankful for getting to enjoy Paris with my mama.
As a 26-year-old single gal, I occasionally have difficulty imagining what the next decade of my life might hold: finally meeting a man I love, marrying him, and eventually having children. My mom married my dad at 25, welcomed me at 27 and for the last few decades, spent her life making sure I had the best, most loving life ever. From being my personal cheerleader to my European drinking buddy, I'm amazed every single day by the strength, love and wit that my mom effortlessly brings to my world. If you're lucky like me, your mom holds a pretty big piece of your heart and and a pretty big chunk of data in your phone plan.
1. She encourages you to always carry lipstick, gum and a pen.
I've wanted to be a writer since I was a little girl and when I declared this to my mom she said, "You better put a pen in your purse, then!" As I got older, she also suggested I always carry gum (you never know who you'll talk to) and lipstick (you never know who you'll want to impress). All three of these things are with me as I type this.
2. She reminds you that awful men ain't worth pissin' on if they're on fire.
When my seventh grade boyfriend broke up with me outside of gym class because it "just wasn't working" – devastation at age twelve – I called my mom to pick me up from school. After a big hug, a chocolate fudge brownie sundae and a Shania Twain sing-along, she shared with me a Southern phrase that I repeat after every terrible date: "He ain't worth pissin' on if he was on fire." Amen, mama.

Android/iPhone: Journaling apps are typically about capturing moments or getting your thoughts down on paper as often as you can. Life Calendar takes a slightly different approach, and instead works as means to memorialize a week at a time.
The idea of Life Calendar is to record one note a week. Each week, you record a note, color code it with a system that makes sense to you, then move on. All those notes are displayed on a massive grid that over time ends up as a big tiled sheet, where each color describes your general mood for any given week. It's a simple approach and certainly one that's doable without a specialized app, but Life Calendar makes the idea of tracking your life one week at a time an easy task. The app is free, but if you want to add pictures or get access to more color options, you'll need to shell out for a $20/year subscription. Thankfully, that subscription isn't terribly necessary for most people.


You can read on our blog about the benefits of honey for the adult elders and positive impact of carrots . However, this time, we're talking about bananas. They are rich in nutrients essential for human health and are low in calories. It is recommended for people of all ages to consume them, and here's why.
Vitamin C regulates a variety of processes in the body. Your body cannot heal its wounds when it has lack of Vitamin C, and the vitamin helps in improving your teeth and bones. It is also a powerful antioxidant so it helps in preventing the development of various diseases. One banana contains around 15% of the recommended daily amount.
Since they are rich in potassium as well, bananas help in regulating blood pressure. Potassium is also important for brain function, so eating a banana a day can reduce the chances of developing Alzheimer's.
The important health benefit of eating bananas is boosting your immune system. They contain high level of Vitamin B-6, a protein essential for fighting numerous diseases. It also regulates blood sugar and helps in delivering oxygen to the tissues.
Bananas have a significant amount of fibers, which elderly adults can benefit from. They primarily help in preventing constipation and other digestive diseases. Bananas cannot cure hemorrhoids, but with enough fiber, you should not worry about that. Eating enough fiber every day contributes to treatments for other diseases as well, such as diabetes and high cholesterol.
These are the main benefits of bananas on the human body, and why the elderly should eat them. Have in mind that you shouldn't exaggerate when eating bananas, and try to find what amount is perfect for you.
