A 4-car crash this morning in Gorst, Washington in Kitsap County resulted in at least one death. The crash took place around 5:30 am, and the road was not clear until after 10 am. According to the State Patrol, the crash involved 2 cars headed eastbound and 2 headed westbound.

On my birthday in 1989 I got the terrible news that my friend Tina Middleton was killed in a car accident. Tina was a single mother, a full-time student, and she was working a full-time job. When the accident happened Tina was on her way home from work. She fell asleep at the wheel of her car and drove into a tree. The impact killed her instantly.

Cars, trucks and other motor vehicles are dangerous machines. These have to be operated with precision and care in order to avoid serious injuries and fatalities. Sadly, not everyone treated motor vehicles like this. Many people fail to recognize their danger since they are used so frequently in everyday life.
On behalf of Law Offices of Matthew D. Dubin posted in Fatal Motor Vehicle Accidents on Friday, June 6, 2014.
Washington drivers may not always realize just how dangerous driving can be. People tend to just think about driving as just another mode of transportation. Since it is done so frequently, people can forget the dangers that lurk on the roadways. In particular, people may not realize how dangerous negligent drivers can be. A driver that is under the influence of drugs or alcohol, a driver that ignores driving rules or a driver that is busy on the person's phone can cause serious damage in a matter of seconds.

A car accident can cause a lot of headaches for all those involved. It can cause property damage, insurance claims and minor injuries; but, in many cases car accidents are much more serious than this. Fatal car accidents can occur at any time in Washington and turn a family's world upside down.

Out of a Dark Dungeon
Back to Changed Lives Archives
Wyatt was in a dark, cold holding cell. He could hear screaming from a nearby room. Prison bars rattled. He was locked deep in a state penitentiary in a cell meant for those awaiting their death sentence. Wyatt was only 15-years-old and on a prison tour designed to scare young drug addicts straight.
Barely two weeks later, after getting busted for smoking some smuggled cigarettes in his rehab program, he attacked a drug counselor with a knife. The man went to the hospital, barely alive. Wyatt went to juvenile detention and wanted to die.
"I grew up in a dysfunctional home," Wyatt recalls. His parents were divorced. He and his sister were on Ritalin. He was lonely at school and coped with anger and pain through TV, video games, and rock music. Soon he was drawn to the occult and dreamed of having the power to control others.
Wyatt met a Satanist who suggested he purchase a satanic bible. In it he seemed to find what he was looking for—acceptance, power, purpose, and pleasure. The philosophy of living for self was so strong, and he was soon deep into partying, drugs, and fun. "The more risky my behavior, the more exciting my life became."
But it all had come to a screeching halt when he was arrested. After six or seven run-ins with the police, the courts had had enough, and he was sentenced to a long-term drug rehab program.
Now, after attacking the staff member, sitting alone in a new cell for his violent attack, Wyatt felt angry and afraid. He contemplated suicide. When he talked with his mom, she pleaded with him to read the Bible. "No way," he thought. He didn't have a heart to tell her that, so he just said, "We'll see."
The Frequency of Salvation
For the next few weeks he walked past a bookshelf with Bibles. One day, in frustration, he grabbed one. He actually wanted to silence the voice in his head and prove Christians wrong. But as he read, he began identifying with the characters of the Bible. After studying about King David, Wyatt fell to his knees and asked God to forgive him. He had found hope and cleansing.
With a Bible and a small radio, Wyatt continued to search for truth. One day he "stumbled" across a program called Bible Answers Live while listening to his radio. It was hard to get good reception at first, so he would stand on his metal bunk and hold his portable radio over his head against the three inch thick window just to listen to the words of life.
"I loved listening to callers phone Pastor Doug and ask the exact questions I had," he explains. Since he could not call in himself, he would pray that his questions would be answered during the weekly Sunday night broadcasts. Many times they were, but sometimes he learned new things that he had never heard before.
"Whenever I read the word 'Sabbath' in the Bible, I always assumed it meant the first day of the week," Wyatt remembers. "Through Bible Answers Live I learned how God wanted me to keep the seventh day holy." Soon he requested the Amazing Facts Bible Study Guides. They were so life-changing that he began to teach his fellow inmates the truths of Scripture! Bible Answers Live also provided clear answers about how the dead are sleeping in their graves awaiting the resurrection.
Wyatt's sentence was reduced for good behavior and one day, after 14 years behind walls, he walked out of the penitentiary a free man. But his freedom wasn't just from iron bars. Amazing Facts played a key role in his experience in discovering truth about God. "I learned about Jesus and His love for me. What a Savior!" he shares.
In 2014 Wyatt attended the Amazing Facts Center of Evangelism (AFCOE) program and assisted with the Landmarks of Prophecy series in Albuquerque. He now tells others, "Go to AFCOE! It's a life-changing program. It's worth any sacrifice to attend." His AFCOE training has better equipped him to serve as an evangelist with Amazing Facts.
Wyatt was once locked up as prisoner of the devil. He felt like he was the least of the least. But through Bible Answers Live and the Amazing Facts Bible Study Guides, he learned more fully of God's redeeming plan to save him. Now Wyatt is leading others out of Satan's dark dungeons and into the light of God's love.
In January 2015, Wyatt and Jenni Allen have joined the Amazing Facts evangelism team and are available to serve your church. To make an appointment, please visit www.prophecyseminars.com.
You can read Wyatt's full story in his book Least of the Least: From Crime to Christ, available through the Amazing Facts Bookstore!

Like many locals, we were sad to see Bakery Normand close. It was a great little place to get brioche. We took our time, almost out of mourning, before we tried Tart. Now we wish we'd gotten there sooner. The pastries here are spot on. Molly is thrilled to see savory hand pies, and I'm pretty stoked to have knish back in my life. The greatest discovery from this joint though is espresso + tonic. I know, I was skeptical at first too. Lemon tonic no less, but after the shock of the first sip we were both hooked.

Q: Why doesn't using multiple commands with a || or && conditional work?

This works on a shell (bash, dash) prompt:
[ -z "" ] && echo A || echo B
A

However, I am trying to write a POSIX shell script, it starts like this:
#!/bin/sh

[ "${#}" -eq 1 ] || echo "Invalid number of arguments, expected one."; exit 1

readonly raw_input_string=${1}

[ -z "${raw_input_string}" ] && echo "The given argument is empty."; exit 1

And I don't know why, but I don't get the message:

The given argument is empty.

if I call the script like this:
./test_empty_argument ""

Why is that?

A: One way to make it more readable is to define a die function (à la perl) like:
die() {
  printf >&2 '%s\n' "$@"
  exit 1
}

# then:

[ "$#" -eq 1 ] || die "Expected one argument, got $#"

[ -n "$1" ] || die "Empty argument not supported"

You can add more bells and whistles like colours, prefix, line number... if need be.

A: Note that your line
[ "${#}" -eq 1 ] || echo "Invalid number of arguments, expected one."; exit 1

this is the same as
[ "${#}" -eq 1 ] || echo "Invalid number of arguments, expected one."
exit 1

(an unquoted ; can, in most circumstances, be replaced by a newline character)
This means that the exit 1 statement is always executed regardless of how many arguments were passed to the script.  This in turn means that the message The given argument is empty. would never have a chance of getting printed.
To execute more than a single statement after a test using the "short-circuit syntax", group the statements in { ...; }. The alternative is to use a proper if statement (which, IMHO, looks cleaner in a script):
if [ "$#" -ne 1 ]; then
    echo 'Invalid number of arguments, expected one.' >&2
    exit 1
fi

You have the same issue with your second test.

Regarding
[ -z "" ] && echo A || echo B

This would work for the given example, but the generic
some-test && command1 || command2

would not be the same as
if some-test; then
    command1
else
    command2
fi

Instead, it is more like
if ! { some-test && command1; }; then
    command2
fi

or
if some-test && command1; then
    :
else
    command2
fi

That is, if either the test or the first command fails, the second command executes, which means it has the potential to execute all three involved statements.

A: This:
[ "${#}" -eq 1 ] || echo "Invalid number of arguments, expected one."; exit 1

is not:
[ "${#}" -eq 1 ] || { echo "Invalid number of arguments, expected one."; exit 1; }

But instead is:
{ [ "${#}" -eq 1 ] || echo "Invalid number of arguments, expected one."; }
exit 1

Your script is exiting regardless of how many arguments you passed to it.

A: I've often seen this as a test for an empty string:
if [ "x$foo" = "x" ]; then ...

[DOCUMENTARY] James Burke's Connections Series 1, 2, 3 COMPLETE mixed quality (24.6GB) | Megalinks MegaDB [DOCUMENTARY] James Burke's Connections Series 1, 2, 3 COMPLETE mixed quality (24.6GB)
[James Burke](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Burke_(science_historian)) | Megalinks MegaDB [James Burke](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Burke_(science_historian)) is a science historian who made several documentaries series.
His work is all interesting, enlightening, timeless, and intriguing. Time spent in his company is guaranteed to be well rewarded.
[This series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connections_(TV_series)) explores how seemingly insignificant technological breakthroughs are interconnected and ultimately lead to current technology/knowledge, explaining how society is how it is nowadays. James shows how much technology has shaped societies and cultures, and how its relentless evolution impacts our lives today, and inevitably, the future. He also demonstrates and demystifies the falsity of the mythical "genius", who allegedly, single-handedly, "discovered" everything. In reality, everything is a remix of current and previous knowledge, we all are influenced by our predecessors.
Despite the release date of the first series, it is still the best one, and surprisingly current and relevant. James' humour is quite entertaining, however, it can really be seen only from the 2nd series onwards.

As Secretary of Defense Robert Gates prepares to hand the reigns over to CIA Director Leon Panetta, he used his last weeks in office to warn that too many cuts in America's $690 billion defense budget could spell danger for US security.
"The defense budget is not the cause of the deficit and debt problem we have as a country," Gates told an audience at the American Enterprise Institute, a Republican think tank, on May 24, 2011.
Known for his tough stance on redundant military spending and no bid contracts during the War on Terror, Gates warned that too many cuts would affect America's national security.
"It is important that we do not repeat the mistakes of the past when tough economic times or the winding down of a military campaign leads to steep and unwise reductions in defense," Gates said in August 2010.
According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, global military spending increased by $20.6 billion in 2010—and $19.6 billion of that was the US alone.
John Feffer, co-director of Foreign Policy in Focus, said that many European countries have cut their defense budgets in the face of large deficits, but the US has not followed suit.
"There has been some movement in Europe. The United Kingdom has started the process, the Netherlands has started the process, Greece and Turkey—which have had a long-time rivalry—have had discussions about mutual reductions. Virtually all the countries in Europe face this problem; they're in a better situation than we are in the United States because they haven't spent as much money on military," he said.
Former defense contractor Michael O'Brien, author of "America's Failure in Iraq," said the gap is likely to be filled by defense contractors.
"We keep the number of servicemen low because we don't want to re-institute the draft. It's a political hot potato. But no one bats an eye when 100,000 contractors go over to the same theater of operations," said O'Brien.
US military veteran and RT blogger Jake Diliberto said Gates has been very critical of US missions in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and elsewhere – which he sees as positive.
"He has been, in my opinion, the best Secretary of Defense ever that we've had in the position," he said.
Diliberto argued that Gates said the US should be weary of making too many cuts, but was also keen to point out that certain cuts can be made to reduce excessive spending and maintain security.


Corpus Christi native Eva Longoria welcomed her first child with husband Jose "Pepe" Bastón on Tuesday. She also took on the "zero tolerance" policy.
Corpus Christi native Eva Longoria is now a mom.
Longoria and her husband Jose "Pepe" Bastón welcomed their son, Santiago Enrique Bastón, to the world Tuesday.
Later in the day, Longoria took to social media to weigh in on the growing national debate over the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" immigration policy.
The couple made the announcement by sharing an exclusive photo of the "Desperate Housewives" actress with their newborn son in Hóla USA Magazine.
According to the publication, Santiago was born Tuesday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. He weighed 6 pounds, 13 ounces.
"We are so grateful for this beautiful blessing," the couple said in a statement to Hola! USA.
This is the first child for Longoria, 43, who grew up in Corpus Christi's Westside and attended Texas A&M University-Kingsville before moving to California.
Bastón, who is president of Latin American media company Televisa, has three children from a previous marriage.
On Thursday, the "Overboard" actress posted on her Instagram announcing her son's birth, but also chimed in regarding the zero tolerance police, which separated immigrant children from their parents on the U.S.-Mexico border.
"That's why I am supporting (Raices Texas, a Refugee & Immigrant Center for Education & Legal Services) and (American Civil Liberties Union) to help fund legal services for separated families."
This isn't the first time Longoria has taken on important issues.
Most recently, she joined forces with Hollywood women to start the #TimesUp campaign in January 2018, which has swept the entertainment, film, TV, music and other industries across the world.
In March, when the Hollywood actress received her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles she wanted to let the public know that her star was the people's star.
"I still feel like a little girl from Corpus Christi, Texas, who had a really big dream," Longoria said in March. "As a woman and as a Latina, I represent a lot of communities ... and I just want to tell all those communities that this isn't my star, it is our star."

Case Study: Robot Improves Safety, Quality, and Competitiveness at Injection Molding Plant
Robot eliminates fork truck traffic on the production floor, improving worker safety and ergonomics.
KEYWORDS automation / robotics
INDIANAPOLIS — At Indianapolis-based Metro Plastics, a MiR200 robot from Mobile Industrial Robots has nearly eliminated fork truck traffic on the production floor, improving worker safety and ergonomics. By automating the transport of finished goods to quality assurance while jobs are in process, the company is also able to immediately identify and address quality issues, which helps reduce waste and drive competitiveness.
Metro Plastics is an Indianapolis-based family-owned business that has produced custom plastic injection molded parts and inject mold tooling since 1974. The company faces competition overseas and in North America, and is dealing with rising costs in healthcare and raw materials as well as challenges in finding and keeping skilled labor. In its constant search for new, more efficient ways to do business, Metro Plastics needs to automate wherever it can. Typical jobs only run for about 2.4 days, however, so the company has to look at automating other processes. Material transport is an ideal target.
With as many as 20 jobs running at a time, boxes of finished products used to stack up at each press until a quality inspector could make her way around the floor to inspect parts and have them delivered to the warehouse. During busy periods, boxes and pallets were tripping hazards for workers, and the constant fork truck traffic added to the safety risks. And for press operators and quality inspectors, the ergonomics of examining and moving boxes at floor level added to job stress.
Autonomous Mobile Robot Easier and More Cost-Effective than AGVs
President Ken Hahn explains that his father, the company's founder, had investigated automated guided vehicles (AGVs) since the 1990s, when the company was located in a previous building. He was never able to act on that goal, however, because of the cost and impact of installing the permanent infrastructure required for AGVs.
When the company set out to build a brand-new facility, the team continued to research AGVs, thinking this was the ideal opportunity to build the capability in from scratch. But Hahn says, "We just couldn't land on a solution that fit for us due to the cost and the different things that we would have to do to the building to make it work." That's when MiR distributor Neff Engineering introduced the MiR robot. Hahn explains, "It didn't need any wires in the concrete. It didn't need magnet pills or anything else to guide it. It was autonomous and it was basically about half the cost of the other solutions. It was a no-brainer for us to get it."
Continuous Material Transport Improves Product Quality and Worker Ergonomics
Metro Plastics initially set up the MiR200 robot to loop the production floor, stopping at each press for 30 seconds to allow operators to load finished products as soon as they fill a box. The robot then continues to the quality department in the warehouse where it automatically docks at its charging station until its next round through the production floor. The robot runs around the clock, Monday through Friday, for four six-hour shifts a day.
Quality Inspector Falicia Roudebush explains that in the past, it could be several hours before she could inspect all the boxes on the production floor. But now, "the MiR robot brings them back to us every 30 minutes, so once a box is done, we're getting a visual of it right then and there, so if there is a problem, we can fix it right then and there." Hahn notes that product quality improvement is an unexpected benefit of the mobile robot. By delivering products continuously, quality inspectors are able to inspect every box, not just a sampling. If a problem is found, it can be identified and addressed while the parts are being produced, which helps reduce waste. Ergonomics is another advantage. Metro Plastics created a counter-height top module that eliminates the back pain Roudebush used to experience while bending over boxes on the production floor.
Fast and Easy Set-Up, Including Integration with In-House Software
Project Coordinator Emma Morris was impressed with how fast and easy the MiR robot was to set up. "The implementation and the programming process of the robot was actually surprisingly straightforward," she says. "A lot of it was self-taught, as well. When we first received the robot, we had to map the floor, which was as simple as actually driving it." The process of mapping the floor and programming the robot's first missions took only a couple of hours. Morris has had to change the robot's programming occasionally to adapt to changes on the production floor, and says, "It's really straightforward: it honestly only takes about three clicks and it's done."
Soon after receiving the mobile robot, Metro Plastics is already updating its processes by integrating it into the company's in-house web-based software called Metro Connect. Using the robot's built-in Wi-Fi interface, operators will use tablets installed at each press to call the robot to pick up finished products and take them directly to the quality department, optimizing the robot's use. Large monitors on the production floor show operators where the robot is and its next scheduled stops so they can anticipate when it will be nearby.
Mobile Robot Improves Safety and Reduces Transportation Costs
With the MiR200 robot, the clutter and traffic on the production floor is nearly eliminated. Hahn notes that he used to worry about the safety of workers moving around the floor listening to music or looking at their phones while fork trucks drove around pallets and boxes. The collaborative MiR robot senses and automatically maneuvers around obstacles and workers, and has nearly eliminated fork truck traffic, making the production floor safer and cleaner. He anticipates savings in propane, maintenance, and labor costs for fork truck drivers, as well. With the risks and inspections involved with fork trucks, he says, "I actually think we might get an insurance reduction by having a MiR robot moving product."
Future Plans Already in the Works
The company is already planning the next stage for the MiR robot, which will reduce the need for operator interaction. Powered conveyor belts at each press will allow the robot to pull up to the press and let product roll directly onto the robot, even if an operator isn't available.
"We don't want to invest in a solution that is not going to be part of the future," Hahn states. "Even before we finished completely moving in, my team had the MiR robot going and I had some customers come in and their reaction is: they're stunned. They can't believe that they are integrating with us, using all these new processes and new technology, and integrating all this into making their product."

Canadian Court Rules in Tesla's Favor Over Phase-Out of EV Incentives
Tesla buyers were originally excluded because the automaker did not sell its vehicles through a dealership.
By Rob StumpfAugust 29, 2018

Tesla's plan to take on the Canadian government after it excluded the automaker's vehicles in a manner that it described as causing "substantial harm," has succeeded. In a ruling against Ontario's decision to append the terms of its provincial Electric and Hydrogen Vehicle Incentive Program (EHVIP) earlier this year, Ontario Superior Court Judge Frederick Myers deemed the terms of the transition program was discriminatory towards Tesla.
Initially, Canadians living in the province were entitled to a rebate of up to $14,000 CAD ($10,800 USD) on eligible electric and hydrogen-fueled cars as long as the price of the vehicle remained under $75,000 CAD ($58,000 USD). That abruptly changed in July when Doug Ford, brother of former Toronto mayor Rob Ford, deemed it necessary to effectively end to EHVIP.
The rebate program's initial terms would be discontinued effective immediately, and the program abolished in its entirety by September 10th, only two months after the program was announced to end. Additionally, in order for residents to qualify for the incentive, a new stipulation was put in place: customers must purchase a qualifying Electric Vehicle (EV) from a dealership. Naturally, Tesla's sales model would immediately disqualify its customers from eligibility due to its direct-to-customer sales model.
A debate ensued and Tesla found its only resolution to be through litigation, a case which was won on Monday in a Canadian Superior Court.
"The [Government of Ontario's] asserted rationale for limiting the transition program to franchised dealerships is laden with factual assumptions that were susceptible to being proved or disproved with evidence," Wrote Judge Myers in his ruling, according to Global News. "If the government wants to transition out of the electric car subsidy program, the [minister of transportation] must exercise his operational discretion in a lawful manner. He has yet to do so. I therefore quash and set aside the minister's unlawful exercises of discretion to implement the transition program announced."
Furthermore, the court continued by accosting Ford's Minister of Transportation, John Yakabuski, for singling out Tesla in a blatant attempt to cause harm without due process. Tesla was happy with the outcome of the complaint and issued the following statement to The Drive:
"We're pleased with the Court's decision to strike down the Ministry's transition plan as unfair and unlawful. Tesla only sought fair treatment for our customers and we hope the Ministry now does the right thing by delivering on its promise to ensure all EV owners receive their incentives during the wind-down period."
At this time, no change to the phase-out process will be made. The provincial officials are planning to review the decision of the case and will investigate how it plans to proceed in the coming days.

Cloak and Dagger Inks Fight Counterfeiters – June 2015 M&A Activity
Private equity investment firm The Jordan Company added to its investment in the category of plastic printing substrates primarily used in packaging applications. Transilwrap, acquired by The Jordan Company in 2013 (see The Target Report – November 2013), itself acquired Ellis Industrial Packaging, adding to its line of converted films and specialty plastics used in printing and packaging. Sun Capital Partners acquired Canadian paper and packaging company CanAmPac through its portfolio company PaperWorks, adding to its significant investments in the printing, packaging and paper industries. The acquisition includes the Strathcona mill that manufactures paperboard for packaging exclusively using recycled fibers.
Commercial Printing and Document Management
Taylor Corporation emerged as the winning bidder for printing and document management company Standard Register in the 363 sale in bankruptcy with an offer of $307 million. Based on the most recently reported revenues of $904 million, Taylor's offer equals 34% of trailing revenues, a price higher than the 29% of projected revenues that Quad/Graphics paid for the presumably more financially sound Brown Printing in April 2014. Standard Register filed bankruptcy just this past March, reportedly unable to meet its obligations from the debt incurred with its own acquisition of print management company Workflow One in 2013 (see The Target Report – August 2013). One day after winning Standard Register, Taylor Corporation announced the acquisition of NEPS, a much smaller New Hampshire-based document management company.
Commercial printer Excelsior Printing is closing its printing operations in North Adams, Massachusetts, after 125 years, transitioning the remaining business to Integrity Graphics in Windsor, Connecticut. The venerable printing company operated in a classic New England brick mill building and had been owned by the Crane family since 1970, operating first under the ownership of Crane & Co., manufacturers of specialty papers including for much of the world's paper currency, then under David Crane since 2008.

A wonderful giant Top for hours of fun.
The giant Top is for 1 or 2 children and has a variety of uses from rocking from side to side, spinning it through to building a den.
The Top helps to develop children's physical coordination whilst they play. Made from strong plastic for both indoor and outdoor play, the top is shaped with a pointed centre enabling children to get the feeling of turning upside-down when moving the top 360 degrees around the centre.
The edge of the top has rounded edges to protect children's heads and hands from getting hurt. Raised edges prevent children from getting their fingers caught under the top.


A collection of Christmas music for the children. It's great fun to see how music for children has changed and stayed the same since the 1920s and 1930s. Most of these tracks were taken from 78 rpm records, although some were obtained from cylinder recordings, with noise reduction applied.

Universities engineer new opportunities for students in Sydney's west
An Engineering Innovation Hub to be built in Parramatta will be the fruit of an innovative partnership between UNSW Sydney and Western Sydney University.
Published on the 11 Oct 2018 by Larissa Mavros
UNSW Sydney today announced an Australian-first collaboration with Western Sydney University to develop a world-class Engineering Innovation Hub in Parramatta.
The two universities are developing a custom-designed, 15-storey vertical Hub at Hassall Street in the Parramatta CBD to house a joint undergraduate engineering program, as well as corporate offices, to be completed by 2021.
The Premier, Gladys Berejiklian, joined UNSW President and Vice-Chancellor, Professor Ian Jacobs, and Vice-Chancellor and President of Western Sydney University, Professor Barney Glover, to officially announce the partnership today.
Ms Berejiklian said the new Hub complemented the NSW government's $26 billion investment in Western Sydney and aligned with the government's objective of creating 200,000 innovation jobs in the new airport precinct at Badgerys Creek.
"Today is about two outstanding institutions, in collaboration with the private sector, staking a mark in the ground and saying, 'We are coming together to propose a truly visionary concept' – two great institutions promoting an engineering hub which will not only generate job growth in this community, but I believe provide the innovation which is desperately needed," Ms Berejiklian said.
UNSW President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Ian Jacobs noted the joint venture would create a new standard in engineering students.
"We are proud to partner with Western Sydney University to deliver a state-of-the-art facility for teaching, research and industry collaboration in the heart of Parramatta. We are aligned with Western Sydney University in our commitment to creating graduates with a global outlook who also have local links and connection to the community," Professor Jacobs said.
Professor Glover noted the engineering degree would bring world-leading research and innovation to the region, providing critical support to the government's ambitious job creation goal for western Sydney.
"Through this joint venture, Western Sydney University and UNSW will harness emerging technologies and opportunities at scale to deliver a highly progressive, industry engaged engineering course in Australia's fastest growing region," Professor Glover said.
The collaboration will also support UNSW's 2025 strategy of leveraging engagement with government, industry and community to promote knowledge exchange for social progress and economic prosperity.

Why Family Matters African Proverbs
As a people, we constantly worry about belonging and we do this because we all know how much family, whatever forms they take do matter. The most powerful reason of why families matter come from orphans and children who know what it's like to have lost or temporarily separated from their families.
First lay the foundation and then build the wall. - Egyptian Proverb
Families play an important role in teaching children about tribal roots so they will grow up with identity, ideals and pride. Family Lives Matter African Proverbs teach the importance of family roots. As it is said in the African Yoruba language, Ase, it is so.
One makes not a people or a town. – West African Proverb
Seize your roots and seize it firmly. – Wolof Proverb
Remove an old tree and the tribe weakens. - Lesotho Proverb
Nature Holds Many Secrets | Hurricanes, Angry African Ancestors
Eastern coasts of Caribbean, United States, and South America, are in danger of being blasted by hurricanes wind and rain during hurricane season from June through November. But, why?
The scientific reason why is because of Africa's Sahara desert dust storms and the transition of thunderstorms off the west coast of Africa. The waters in the North Atlantic Ocean are typically at their warmest while the Sahara is at its hottest from July through October, so the chances of a hurricane are highest during these months.
Hurricanes are gigantic weather systems using convection, the movement of hot and cold air, to create dangerous storms. They are rotating heat engines powered by the warmth of tropical waters having three main parts, the eye, the eyewall, and rainbands.
Hurricanes cannot form just anywhere in the world due to the need for hot and humid air. They normally form close to the equator and move west or northwest. Hurricane Alley is a stretch of warm water through the Atlantic Ocea…

As expected, your content will only ever be accessible to students who have a user account with your site and who are enrolled on the course, but what if you're looking to have a little more control over who's able to enrol in the first place?
Private Courses and Hidden Courses are the ideal way to manage access to your courses.
Private Courses are ideal for cases where you want the course landing page to be public for marketing or informational purposes but don't want students to be able to enrol in the course directly.
The course isn't ready for enrolment yet - you may still be working on the course content, but that's no reason not to have your course landing page out there and ready to share for a spot of pre-launch marketing!
Your course is currently unavailable - perhaps you run your course during a specific time period, or for a maximum number of students? You can simply change whether or not the course is private depending on whether it's currently available for enrolment. During the in-between times, you can even be pre-filling spots for the next group of students from people who have emailed you from the course landing page.
You only accept students who meet specific criteria - you may need to speak to a person before they enrol on the course to make sure it's suitable for them; e.g. imagine selling a programming course to somebody who's never used a computer.
Courses set as "Private" will still have a course card on your site, so any visitors will be able to access them from the site landing page. However, the course won't have the usual "Buy" or "Enroll" button. Instead the visitor will see a message encouraging them to email you and request access. The email displayed in your course landing page header is drawn from the support email, which can be set in your course site's Basic Settings.
To make a course private, simply navigate to the Settings tab of the course builder. Under Basic Settings you'll see the option there for Private Course; just select the checkbox, save your changes, and that's it!
NOTE: To give a student access to a course that is set as private, you are able to manually enrol them from your Admin Dashboard. Here's how to do that.
You can also change the Private course call to action if you wish. To do this, go to Settings > Site > Modify text: Site landing page and edit the Private CTA.
Hidden Courses are the best way to control who is able to access course information and content. Courses set as 'Hidden' will not appear as a course card on your site landing page, and so will only be accessible to a person if you send them the direct link to the course landing page. From the landing page, they will be able to buy or enrol on the course as usual.
Your course is for a specific group of people - your course may only be intended for certain people; for example, the employees of a company for whom you've specifically tailored the content. Simply hide the course so that only they have access.
You want to offer some bonus content - looking to offer some complimentary extras as a bonus to people who've bought another of your products? Put it into a hidden course! You can then make sure that only those people receive the direct link.
The course has a prerequisite - sometimes, students need to have completed another of your courses before starting the next. Make the course that has a prerequisite hidden - you can even customize the course completion email for the prerequisite course to include the direct link to the next one! Here's how.
To make a course hidden, go to Settings > Basic Settings in the course builder for that course, select the checkbox for Hidden Course and save your changes.
The Course URL shown above is what you can use to send to people who you'd like to be able to enrol in the course. It will take them directly to the course landing page, from which they can click on the usual "Buy" or "Enrol" buttons.
Any questions about how you can use Private and Hidden courses? Leave us your feedback below!

Their previous touring experience has granted them opportunities to collectively perform live throughout North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Their passion for playing live is also their motivation to execute their brand of music world-wide in as many venues and live settings as possible. This is a band that unitedly craves the energy from a profound, zealous crowd, and they know how to encourage this type of live experience.
IMONOLITH have already amassed a dedicated legion of supporters world-wide and their following continues to expand by the thousands as the band continues to grow. The interaction between Imonolith and their supporters is paramount to their long term vision… that's why the connection to their devotees through their social media network is robust and of the greatest importance to them, along with their music.

Sounds From The Ground are London's Nick Woolfson and Elliot Morgan Jones. Their debut album, 'Kin' came out on Waveform in 1996. The duo's second Waveform album, 'Terra Firma,' released in 2000, helped secure SFTG as a satisfying and respected UK musical force. Billboard magazine called it "consistently engaging" and like all the SFTG titles, it continues to be enthusiastically received. In 2004, Nick and Elliot returned to their roots with their third Waveform title, 'Luminal.' A spacious and sometimes gritty release with contributions from pedal steel guitarist BJ Cole, vocalist Rachael Calladine, Canada's talented throat singer and Bjork contributor Tanya Tagaq Gillis, dub maestro Dillinger and up and coming UK vocalist Taz. CDBaby described Luminal as "less lounge and more fat and dirty."

AZ Reid rethinks retirement plan: 'I think I still have a little bit left in my tank'
by Karlo Sacamos
AZ Reid says he's willing to do it all over again next year. Jerome Ascano
THE ecstasy of winning a PBA championship probably gets a basketball junkie to come back for more.
On a high after leading San Miguel Beer to the Governors' Cup title following a four-game conquest of Alaska, AZ Reid is reconsidering his retirement plan after getting a taste of utmost success in Asia's first play-for-pay league.
The prolific SMB import earlier in the season-ending conference signified his intention to call it quits as a reinforcement, pointing to wear and tear on his 29-year-old frame.
"My body feels like I'm sixty-nine. I feel old. I'm beat up," he said after the title-clinching 91-81 win on Friday night.
But after capturing a coveted crown in his fourth conference in the PBA, falling short twice with Rain or Shine then failing miserably in his first tour of duty with the Beermen, Reid is having second thoughts.
"It's going to be tough, but I think I still have a little bit left in my tank," he said.
[See By winning first PBA championship, AZ Reid proves he's a man of his word]
There's also some unfinished business as Reid could not hide his disappointment of not winning a third Best Import award, barely losing to Aces counterpart Romeo Travis, blaming the media votes for his defeat.
"Even though the media don't like me for some reason, I might come back," he said with a smile. "I'm not sure yet."
Reid also bared that SMB management, particularly governor Robert Non, signified its intention to bring him back.
"I talked to him (Non) before (Game Four) and he kind of threw a hint at me, saying next year, 'You'll get Best Import,'" Reid said. "But I'm not really concerned of playing basketball right now. I just want to have fun and let it soak in first."
"I'm going home and I'm going to share this with my family," he added. "When I decide to go back to work, we'll get there."

Lycopene, one of nature's most powerful antioxidants, is found almost exclusively in tomatoes. These rehydrate quickly to add depth and zest to recipes. Use in place of sun-dried tomatoes. Recommended for soups, vegetable dishes, stews, salads.
To reconstitute Frontier tomato powder, use the following recipes. Paste: Combine 3/4 cup tomato powder with 2 cups water. Sauce: Combine 1/2 cup tomato powder with 2 cups water. Juice: Combine 1/8 cup tomato powder with 2 cups water. Yields 2 cups.
For use when you need a little more tomato sauce or paste, but hate to open up a whole can. Works great to thicken pizza and spaghetti sauce.

Mimico and Long Branch GO Stations will be fully accessible by 2023 with electrified, 15-minute service by 2025.
Long Branch, Mimico and Humber Bay Shores' residents came out in force, with approximately 160 people attending Metrolinx's two open houses on July 5 to detail its plans and timelines to build the new Mimico and Long Branch GO Stations.
The GO stations will be fully accessible with the ability to access each station from both sides with new tunnels. At Mimico, a new passenger drop-off and pickup area will be built on Manchester Street, with improved access to Long Branch GO Station from Edgeware Drive.
Passenger pickup areas, bicycle shelters and pedestrian walkways, as well as new heated shelters, new canopies and platform snow melting are among the upgrades.
Mimico Station was built in 1967, the year GO Transit launched. Long Branch Station opened in 1980. Today, GO's Lakeshore West Line, which includes the Mimico and Long Branch Stations, is its busiest with 18 million passengers a year.
Metrolinx continues to consider a potential Park Lawn GO Station through a preliminary design business case. Community leaders and local politicians long argued the best transit improvement for the area would be a Park Lawn GO stop.
In February, Metrolinx announced it would consider a Park Lawn GO Station after it didn't make the cut in 2016 to proceed to the preliminary design stage.
"The Park Lawn station location has benefits that are greater than the costs, and therefore should advance to the next stage for preliminary design business case," Metrolinx said in a report. "Transformative for the community" is how Grimes described it in a statement at the time, regarding the Park Lawn transit hub that incorporated GO and TTC services.
"As part of this review, a refined station layout and location at Park Lawn was found to be an increasingly strong transit investment," Metrolinx said in its open house presentation.
If the Metrolinx board approves the project, the station will require funding and an Environmental Assessment before commencing construction.
In April, Metrolinx and Infrastructure Ontario issued Requests for Proposals to design, build and finance the Lakeshore West infrastructure improvement project to three shortlisted teams: Steelhead, EllisDon Infrastructure Transit and West Link Partners.
Christopher Moore, president of the Mimico Residents Association, said Mimico residents' top priorities for their neighbourhood GO Station is full accessibility and the creation of a south entrance, which requires a deal with Toronto Community Housing.
GO ridership at the Mimico and Long Branch stations is expected to grow exponentially in future. Today, Mimico GO Station sees approximately 1,200 riders a day, a number expected to skyrocket to between 2,000 and 4,000 riders daily in 2031. Approximately, 1,000 people take the Long Branch GO daily, but that number is forecasted to potentially double by 2031.
