Q: How to register for multiselect "item select" and "control collapse" events? How can I register for multiselect "item selected" and "control collapse" events (when the multiselect closes) and post back the selected items in my mvc3 controller so that I can update my grid results (based on the multiselect as a filter)?
Any jquery/ajax examples would be appreciated.  Thanks!

A: Everything you need is on this demo page :) You just need to modify the code to add $.post
http://www.erichynds.com/examples/jquery-ui-multiselect-widget/demos/#callbacks
$("select").multiselect({
   click: function(event, ui){
      $callback.text(ui.value + ' ' + (ui.checked ? 'checked' : 'unchecked') );
              // item selected
              $.post("YourURL", { value: ui.value, state: ui.checked ? 'checked' : 'unchecked'} );

   },
   close: function(){
      $callback.text("Select closed!");
              // select closed
   }
});

An example of vertically stacked hydroponic installation. A system like this would allow a person to be self-sustaining for vegetables in just a few square meters. This makes it particularly useful for urban settings.
Hydroponics is the practice of growing plants in nutrient-enriched water rather than soil.
Hydroponics is incredibly productive and requires little space. For example, Factor e Farm's experiments found that they could grow $1 of lettuce per square foot per week. And the Institute of Simplified Hydroponics has found that they can grow 2kg of vegetables a day on 20m2 of space . Indoor growing in a greenhouse greatly reduces losses to pests.
There are 6 main techniques used in hydroponics. The Drip hydroponics system continuously drips nutrient solution onto the plants roots. The Ebb and Flow (Flood and Drain) system floods the grow bed and hydroponics growing medium with a nutrient solution, then this solution slow drains back to the reservoir. Roots benefit from these periods of wetness and dryness. Deep Water Culture simply submerges roots in a nutrient solution. Less common hydroponics systems include the Wick System (where a fabric material wicks nutrient solution from the reservoir up to the roots), Nutrient Film Technique (where nutrient solution runs down long channels or tubes and passes over bare roots), and Aeroponics (where nutrients are administered via misting suspended and bare-rooted plants).
See here for free instructions on building several different hydroponic systems. N55 have a design for a vertical hydroponic system here. See Wikipedia on hydroponics for more information.
Open source software for automating hydroponic systems.
Aquaponics is a kind of hydroponics that uses the water from fish tanks. This eliminates the need for an input of nutrients.

Q: How to show validation errors using redirect in codeigniter? I have been dealing with a problem for a while. How can I set the validation errors using redirect in a function? This is the code I have in my controller :
function send()
{
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('e-mail', 'Email', 'trim|required|valid_email');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('cellphone', 'Cellphone Number', 'trim|required|is_natural');
    $this->form_validation->set_message('required', '%s is required.');
    $this->form_validation->set_message('valid_email', '%s is not a valid Email Address');
    $this->form_validation->set_message('is_natural', '%s can only contain numbers.');
    $this->form_validation->set_error_delimiters('
', '
');

    if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
    {
        redirect ('/');
    }
    else
    {
        echo '
';
        print_r($_POST);
        echo '
';
    }
}

And this is the code I use in my view file:
<? if (validation_errors())
{
echo '
';
echo '
Errors:

';
echo validation_errors();
echo '

';
echo '
';
}
?>

A: I found the way to do it. Redirecting does not keep the data to be shown. I used the code below to solve the problem:
if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
{
    $this->index();
}

A: As per my comment:
function index()
{
    $this->load->library('form_validation');
    $data = array
    (
        'Param' => 'Value'
    );
    if($this->input->post('cellphone', true) !== false)
    {
        if($this->form_validation->run() != FALSE)
        {
            echo '
' . print_r($_POST, true) . '
';
        }
    }
    $this->load->view('index', $data);
}

First, you need to change your form so it points to the current page, i.e. current_url() or site_url('controller/index').
When you go to the index without posting, it will simply skip the validation. Upon submitting your form, it will run the validation.
You can then use the built in form_error or validation_errors methods to display the errors within your index view.

A: I know it's a bit late but this method works wonders for me.
If you are validating your form in a different function than the one the form is loaded in, you can send your validation_errors() to any page that you redirect() by passing the validation_errors() method to $this->session->set_flashdata() like so:
if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {

    $this->session->set_flashdata('error', validation_errors());

    redirect('/');
}

In your controller functions where you would like your errors or messages to be received you can then set them to the $data array like so:
if (!empty($this->session->flashdata('message'))) {

    $data['message'] = $this->session->flashdata('message');
} elseif (!empty($this->session->flashdata('error'))) {

    $data['error'] = $this->session->flashdata('error');
}

At the top of my views I usually include:
<?php if (isset($message)) {

    echo '
'.$message.'
';
} elseif (isset($error)) {

    echo '
Error: '.$error.'
';
}?>

Using twitter bootstrap classes to format the messages helps to differentiate them.
I included the message flashdata so that you can see how whatever type of message or error you want to send, you are able to format them differently for all information, warning, success and error messages.

A: finally i got a solution for the redirect with validation_errors
This is using to pass the validation_errors in the session data,
i do it like this
if ($this->form_validation->run()) {
        $data = array(
            'email' => $this->input->post('email'),
            'is_login' => true
        );
        $this->session->set_userdata($data);
        redirect($this->input->post('redirect'));
    }
    else
    {
        $data = array (
            'errors' => validation_errors(),
            'is_login' => false
        );
        $this->session->set_userdata($data);
        redirect($this->input->post('redirect'));
    }

and in the page i used
        $this->session->set_flashdata('redirectToCurrent', current_url());

    if ($this->session->userdata('is_login'))
    {
        echo "You are using this as :
" . $this->session->userdata('email');
        echo "
Logout";
    }
    else
    {
        echo form_open('login');
        echo "" . $this->session->userdata('errors');
        echo "email : " . form_input('email');
        echo "Password : " . form_password('password');
        echo form_submit('submit', 'Login');
        echo form_hidden('redirect',$this->uri->uri_string());
        echo form_close();
    }

I wish you like this fast solution


Heathrow typifies the air transport revolution during the last 60 years. When it opened for business in January 1946, Europe was still suffering from the effects of war. To open a new airport for international air travel at this time was an act of faith. Conditions were primitive and the early aircraft were converted bombers. Over the sixty years from 1946, Heathrow has grown dramatically and still been unable to cope with the needs of those flying to and from London. The 14 million flights and 1.4 billion passengers have made Heathrow the major international airport.

Public hospital waits trigger risky 'Buy-Now, Pay-Later'
Members Health has expressed concern that "swelling public hospital waiting lists" are giving rise to 'buy-now, pay-later' schemes for procedures in Australia's private health care system.
Members Health represents 26 not-for-profit private health insurers.
According to CEO Matthew Koce, these schemes are the latest example of the insecurity that many Australians face when they do not take out health cover and instead rely solely on the public system.
"Buy now, pay later (BNPL) threatens to leave users under a mountain of debt, rather than with the ongoing health security that not-for-profit health funds provide," he said.
"Uninsured Australians are frequently languishing on year-long public wait lists, and the emergence of BNPL operators shows how desperate some people have become.
"This is a very troubling development triggered by the global pandemic; the public system has fallen so far behind that people are now being encouraged to take on thousands of dollars of debt just to take care of their health care needs."
Mr Koce said consumer concerns about the BNPL industry were warranted.
"BNPL providers are not subject to the National Consumer Credit Protection Act, so people don't have the same kind of protections as they would with other financial products. BNPL services aren't governed by responsible lending requirements, so there's a real risk that people could end up with a loan they simply can't a ord," said Mr Koce.
"Taking out unsecured credit to pay for healthcare has never been in the Australian psyche – and during a global pandemic is certainly not the time to start."
Mr Koce said the growth of waiting lists and times with the emergence of so-called 'alternatives' such as BNPL will spur participation in private health insurance.
"The latest Australian Prudential Regulation Authority data shows hospital treatment fund membership across the sector grew in 2020," he said. "The really interesting aspect is that almost all of the growth was spread across Members Health funds.
"The sector attracted 102,100 new members – Members Health funds attracted 91%, or more than 93,000 of them, while the rest of the industry basically treading water.
"Faced with frightening prospect of either a year-long wait for surgery in the public system or thousands of dollars in debt to an unregulated BNPL provider, it's no wonder people are flocking Members Health funds –funds that are run for people, not for profit," added Mr Koce.

The Royal College of Psychiatrists asserted that the whole system needs to be improved and in a bid to do this, a mental health taskforce has been established for the NHS as it's determined to improve services.
Highlighting just how important it is that more services become available, the report revealed that a staggering 92% of wards are treating patients who could be catered for in community settings if they were available. Furthermore, 16% of inpatients were found to be well enough to go home but couldn't because follow-on services such as the appropriate housing simply is not available.
Currently, if a person needs urgent medical attention because of mental health issues, sometimes there is no choice but to send them up to hundreds of miles away from their home just so they can receive treatment. In some of the worst cases, people are even being detained in police cells if there are no beds available and no other option.
If you think that you or someone you know could have a mental health issue, please feel free to contact Life Works in the strictest of confidence and we will be more than happy to help.


For those who have lost teeth due to injury or periodontal disease, dental implants are life-changing. Though it does require patience from the patient, as it can take up to two years to complete the process, the end result offers immense improvements in a variety of ways.
A dental implant is the mechanical replacement of the tooth root upon which a single crown or another type of prosthesis can be attached. Since the options for multiple teeth replacements can vary greatly, this article concentrates on a single tooth replacement with an implant and crown, and will give you an idea of what to expect.
The first step in the procedure is evaluating the patient's mouth and mapping out a treatment plan.
The next step is removing the damaged tooth, if necessary. The procedure doesn't take long and usually only requires a local anesthetic, but a couple of months are required for the area to heal. During the time period through the final phase of treatment, a temporary appliance may be worn to hide the space created by the extracted or missing tooth.
If the area around the tooth shows signs of bone loss, a bone graft ensures the jawbone is strong enough to hold the implant. Sterilized, freeze-dried human cadaver bone or synthetic bone can be placed in the extraction site to fill the void. This step can take up to nine months of recovery.
When the jawbone is strong and the gums are healthy, the implant is inserted. It starts with either a local or general anesthetic, then incisions are made in the gum to expose the jawbone. Space is created to place the implant, and the titanium root is locked in place. A temporary cover or cap is applied, and the gums are stitched up to secure it.
During the next three to five months of recovery, the titanium root fuses to the jawbone in a process called osseointegration, which ultimately makes the implant even more secure than natural teeth.
Once the implant has bonded properly, a local anesthetic is applied, the gums are drawn back, and the cover or cap is removed. The abutment (a connector between the artificial root and the artificial tooth) is then attached, and the gums are formed around it.
A crown will be created from a previously-made dental imprint, matching both the shape and color of the other teeth. After another week or two of recovery, the crown is attached to the abutment, and the procedure is complete. The color of the crown is designed to match your teeth, but it will take time for the gingival tissue around the implant to return to its original appearance. This is where patience is required, especially when replacing front teeth.
The procedure is a lengthy one, but a dental implant offers improved appearance, speech, comfort, and self-esteem, while assisting chewing, benefiting oral health, and eliminating any inconvenience of dentures.

South of Fifth's Most Sought After Condominiums
The Continuum towers North and South have been kept in the spotlight with their beautiful designs, concierge services, and amenities, but how is the rest of this neighborhood doing? Which buildings in South of Fifth are the trendiest? Which offer the most for the money?
Let's run the numbers to find out.
Murano Grande – South of Fifth's Most Sought After Building
Out of eight luxury waterfront buildings, the Murano Grande has contributed to over 31% of the number of sales.
The Murano Grande has been in the spotlight with a massive sale of unit 3001, a 3 bed, 3 bath + powder room that sold for $5,500,000 on June 15th, 2018. This took the building to new heights with an astonishing $1,382 price per square foot.

Apogee – South of Fifth's Jewel
Apogee, certainly the outlier in South of Fifth with only two floor plans available: 3103 s.f. and 4145 s.f. In the past 365 days there have been 5 sales in the building, equating to $54,750,000 sold. The average sales price per square foot over the past year was $2,750.

Murano at Portofino is situated where Alton Road meets South Pointe Drive, in the heart of South of Fifth. Having some of the best views, being 1 block away from the best restaurants in town, and having countless amenities, this building has very low turnover. Why? Well, very few owners want to sell.This contributes to higher sale price/list price ratios and higher purchase prices: averaging $3,527,000 over the past 180 days.

The Icon just finished the renovation of their pool deck, and it's fabulous! The renovations, the proximity to Crescent Heights' newly planned park, and the prices have contributed to its most recent success amongst South of Fifth residents! Averaging $1,826,000 and $958 per square foot, the Icon has contributed to 23% of the sales and is 2nd only to the Murano Grande.

Continuum North and South
The Continuum compound has far exceeded all others in South of Fifth in terms of price per square foot which has averaged at $1,907 over the past 6 months. The average sales price over the past 180 days has been $4,343,750. The 12-acre property features 3 pool, 1,000 linear feet of ocean frontage, 3 tennis courts, and a 25,000 sq.ft. gym and spa.

GuysGirl Investigates: DisneyBounding
I'm obsessed with Disney, but then again who isn't? Disney is one of the most popular companies that exists right now and has one of the largest fanbases of all time. Obviously, their characters are some of the most iconic ever and at some point, everyone has wanted to be one. If you haven't, well then, you're just lying to yourself. So when I stumbled on DisneyBounding, it was as if my Disney dreams had come true and immediately, there were questions like "What the heck is DisneyBounding?"
To make it as simple as possible, DisneyBounding is dressing up like a Disney character but with normal clothes which are basically like a DIY costume. If you want a more in-depth answer on what DisneyBounding is, I refer you to a video by Youtuber, imSarahSnitch. If you're interested in her, she produces a lot of Disney related content on her channel.
The video cleared up a lot of my questions about what DisneyBounding is, who can DisneyBound and why it's so popular. DisneyBounding is literally for any Disney fan there is… no matter what age you are, I'm sure you have something in your closet you can use for it.
In my research on the parks, I found out that if you are over 14, Disney prohibits wearing costumes for obvious reasons which are why I believe DisneyBounding is so popular. It's basically like wearing a costume without wearing a costume, you know? In the video, she also mentions a site called "disneybound' which is a DisneyBounder's dream.
The site uses Polyvore to design outfits inspired by characters to help the disneybounder. The theme for this week was Disney Channel Original Movies since there was a Memorial Day marathon. For example, one of most interesting ones was a Zenon DisneyBound from the movie Zenon: Girl Of the 21st Century. The site features a ton of different characters, modern and classic such as characters from Zootopia, Big Hero 6 and Frozen along with Pinocchio, Dumbo and The Jungle Book. You can check out the website for more.
Another aspect I find interesting about DisneyBounding is how open it can be. There are so many characters to choose from and an endless amount of clothing options. It could be done by just one person, a couple, a group of friends or even an entire family.
Personally, I believe that DisneyBounding is pretty cool and something I'd like to try at least once. What do you think about DisneyBounding? Would you give a try?

Liberty as Respect for Persons
by Jason Kuznicki
1. The Task at Hand
We have been asked — in all modesty! — to reground libertarian political theory in light of Matt Zwolinski's objections to the non-aggression axiom. I infer we must either:
(a) explain why the non-aggression principle is correct and axiomatic, objections notwithstanding;
(b) find a different principle, also axiomatic, that will fit the NAP-shaped hole, doing just the same work;
(c) find a principle that doesn't quite fit the NAP-shaped hole, but that will do much of the same work, leaving only some less weighty objections;
(d) find a principle that can explain both why the NAP seems to yield solid conclusions in many cases, and also why it fails in others.
I respect him greatly, but I consider that George H. Smith has not succeeded at (a), and that I cannot improve.
I take (b) to be formally impossible. A principle that did exactly the same work as the NAP would be the NAP. And anyway, our problem is that we can't accept some of the work it does.
I'm not smart enough to attempt (c) from scratch. The best (c)-like effort is utilitarianism, although utilitarianism is not always or necessarily libertarian, and it may even veer toward the inhuman. Neither is a good reason to abandon a true conclusion, of course, but my reasons for rejecting it must wait for another post.
That leaves me with (d), which I will try. Not, however, with any great originality. In short form, I think libertarianism aims at something like the Kantian kingdom of ends. In what follows, I will explain how I think this works. If needed, I will answer questions and objections in a future post. We all know they're out there.
As with people in general, we can split libertarians into two camps, God and no-God. I'm in the no-God camp, although my reasons are outside the scope of both this essay and this website.
Is nothing sacred to me? On the contrary, many things are. The very first among these — the first by a long, long way — is the human mind. Why? Because it is the only part of the cosmos, so far as we know it, that is able to understand, to reason, to conceive of plans, to execute those plans, and thereby to improve both itself and its circumstances, according to its own judgment.
The mind's reasoning power means that nothing is more fascinating, nothing more triumphant, nothing more holy in all the universe. Nothing else appears even to come close.
This fact has consequences.
Were there only one human being, and assuming him or her to be of good character, I would want that person to claim title to the whole universe, to enjoy it to the fullest possible extent, and to gather every natural advantage that might be found in it. I would want that person to be emperor of the universe.
We are simply that great. We are so amazing, in fact, that we have literally no idea how far we'll go or what lies in store for us as a species. My bet though is that it's wonderful. All because of the individual mind.
And yet — there are billions of us. And we all have minds. This fact too has consequences.
Whatever abstract rules I would set up for myself, I must hold out for you as well. All of you, equally. You may differ in your capacities, and obviously you do, but you all very clearly stand in the same relationship to one another and to the rest of the universe that I do. You are all reasoners, and to the extent that I respect reasoning powers in myself, so too I must respect them in you.
No, solipsism isn't a way out. I couldn't adopt solipsism without doing significant violence to my own reasoning power in the process. So I'm stuck with you. And you? You're stuck with me, by exactly the same token.
But how does one ethically govern a planet full of such wonderfully dignified creatures? There are only so many possibilities:
We can't all be universal emperors simultaneously and in the same respects. Conflicts would arise immediately over scarce or unique resources, and these would admit of no resolution.
Violence doesn't help. It would be wrong to inflict harm on someone of an equal dignity to myself, merely to gain what would be for me at best a means to an end. I must act according to a law that treats like cases alike, and thus I must forebear. And so must you.
We can't hold everything in common. The decisionmaking would be too cumbersome, and we would rarely if ever achieve consensus. Knowledge problems would arise. And with common ownership, the incentives for dishonesty and irresponsibility would multiply.
No, elitism isn't a way out. Giving greater worth or dignity to a select few is tempting — tremendously, for some — but the society that adopts the rule of the greatest sooner or later ends in the rule of the most vicious.
And so, whenever possible, we make sure that no one rules over anyone but themselves.
We insist on liberty because it is the only approach to politics that consistently attempts to treat people as ends in themselves, not as the means to some other end. Command-based political orders all violate the categorical imperative. They all use some human beings merely as tools for the purposes of some other human beings.
The system of natural liberty is at the very least trying mightily to avoid that outcome. This is what I take Robert Nozick to have meant with his defense of rights as side constraints and his invocation of Kant in Anarchy, State, and Utopia:
Side constraints upon action reflect the underlying Kantian principle that individuals are ends and not merely means; they may not be sacrificed or used for the achieving of other ends without their consent… Side constraints express the inviolability of other persons. But why may not one violate persons for the greater social good? [Because] there is no social entity with a good that undergoes some sacrifice for its own good. There are only individual people, different individual people, with their own individual lives. Using one of these people for the benefit of others uses him and benefits the others. Nothing more.[1]
Nozick admits that adding enough side constraints to leave people complete self-rulers could be an "impossibly stringent condition," but he does give the side constraint against aggression a strong philosophical grounding, and he demonstrates that it leads to very familiar libertarian conclusions: Kantians should be libertarians, or else something a whole lot like us.
Whether we can perfect Nozick's "impossibly stringent" set of side constraints and achieve complete self-rulership is immaterial. To the extent that a free and equal liberty can be realized for all, it should be. In Herbert Spencer's words, "[E]very man may claim the fullest liberty to exercise his faculties compatible with the possession of the like liberty by every other man."
3. Why We Do Markets
"Yeah, but wait," someone might say. "I thought you promised me the universe!"
I did. But only if you were all alone. Now, I trust that you probably wouldn't want to be, and anyway, getting there from here would break the constraints we've just so carefully set up.
We can, however, do something a lot like giving everyone the universe: We can increase the stock of available goods, both in their quantity and in their quality, and we can distribute them efficiently. We do this through markets.
Indeed, living in a market order is to my mind clearly better than possessing the whole universe all alone. Markets mean more and better food. Markets mean books, and effective medicine, and music, and beer. I am unlikely to ever produce these things all by myself — or if I did, I would have to neglect many other things, and then I'd die from lack of them. Although I'm not exactly making the case in a rigorous way, it seems clear to me that that man the reasoning animal deserves not the whole universe to himself, but rather a society of similar beings. They are not a problem or an obstacle, but a distinct improvement over isolation.
We do markets because beings like us deserve the array of helps and enhancements that only systems with a significant market component can offer. Markets allow us to create a better world, and they reward us both directly, in the form of compensation for work, and indirectly, in the growing menu of goods and services we can choose from.
Most importantly, nothing about the market process properly considered violates our side constraints. This is what makes markets not simply advantageous, but morally permissible.
It is sometimes objected, when I have spoken favorably of the categorical imperative as a foundation for libertarian political theory, that this principle would forbid all market exchanges: Doesn't the buyer use the seller as a means, and vice versa?
The answer is no. In a voluntary market exchange, buyer and seller formulate a plan together — a plan to redistribute limited amounts of money, goods, and/or services. These things are the tools being used, not the individuals.
The plan also functions as a means for them both, one that aims at the end of individual betterment, not for one person, but for two: I get bread, so I live a bit better; the baker gets money, so his bakery does well, and he lives a bit better too. Could I will that everyone proceeded along such lines? Of course I could, and I do.
4. Down with the Non-Aggression Axiom, Up with the Non-Aggression Presumption
What though about the non-aggression principle? Certain of Zwolinski's criticisms still seem to me to miss the mark. This appears especially true of the claim that the non-aggression principle is "parasitical" on a theory of property.
Well, what if it is?
Consider that the vast majority of the world's religions are also parasitical on a theory of property: Whenever a religion has declared "Thou shalt not steal," that pronouncement has depended on contingent, changing, history-bound, human-made definitions of "stealing."
Did the Almighty or his spokespeople — in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and many others — just happen to overlook the fact that they weren't supplying a theory of property rights, but merely piggybacking on one already in place?
No. They knew of and were wholly untroubled by this move. If we suppose God to have been the author of any of these systems, then He obviously wasn't bothered. If we suppose the systems to be of human creation, the human authors appear equally unruffled.
Can Zwolinski really have been the first to notice this problem? (The first, perhaps, outside of Karl Marx?) I don't think so. Much more likely is that's not really a problem at all.
Without meaning to endorse any particular culture's theory of property, and still less any particular religion, I note that it was commonly the intent of the world's religious traditions to ratify something like the status quo in property rights, whatever that status quo may have been in a given time or place. (Recall that that status quo may have been bad: in slave societies, "thou shalt not steal" has perverse consequences, in that it condemns the liberator of slaves.)
So yes, the non-aggression principle is parasitical on a theory of property — but which theory is it? Happily, the answer in our particular historical moment is both obvious and good.
In the Anglo-American world one theory of property is so well ratified by time and experience that it hardly needs much defense outside of an academic philosophy department. Roughly, property is possessed by individuals — by persons, under the law. Justice in holdings is validated by looking at the history of an item's acquisition, alienation, and reparation, and by establishing factual claims about various events from that history. It is presumed that real and personal property can be bought and sold with a minimum of encumbrance unless specified otherwise, and that such transactions work a permanent change in ownership, again unless specified otherwise — in which case, we speak not of a sale, but of a lease or a rental agreement. These are separate matters in the law.
Reference to this theory of property allows us to do markets. It gets us to a peaceful way of allocating real and personal property in a way that tends to benefit those who work within it honestly. It also solves a whole lot of conflicts before they even get started.
To say that initiating physical force against someone is justified only if he or she violates this complex set of norms is itself a complex claim. By the same token, though, it's not a vacuous claim, not a tautology, and not at all impossible to apply. On the contrary, applying it consistently will get us something a lot like a viable libertarianism.
(Its application will, however, necessarily give rise to disputes over particular matters. That's exactly what property law does. To think that all disputes in a social order as complex as the law of property might be settled by an axiom is to misunderstand the nature of the legal order.)
But also: in the language of ethics, the non-aggression principle is not a categorical imperative. It's not a principle to apply in all times and all places, without qualification. It is a hypothetical imperative — a principle to be applied only if certain circumstances arise. In those circumstances, good things on the whole tend to result from acting on this principle.
Yet the discovery that a particular system of political or ethical obligations usually has good consequences does not establish it as a categorical imperative. A categorical imperative can only come from considerations about one's own nature, considerations about the like nature of others, and the consequences that follow necessarily from the two.
And so, in those rare circumstances where observing the non-aggression principle means that someone is treated merely as the means to some other end, we should abandon it in favor of respect for persons as ends in themselves.
Consider the case of the man who has fallen out the window of a high-rise apartment and caught hold of the flagpole one story below. His neighbor below forbids all trespassing, even to save a life. "It's my property," he says, "and that's all that matters. Now, you may hang there until your arm gives out, but I will give you no help."
Were the non-aggression principle axiomatic, we would have no recourse here. But consider: Could we will that everyone behaved likewise? Does it show respect for persons? Isn't it clear that a person's life is being treated as worth rather less than a few footprints on a carpet?
The neighbor's behavior is appalling, and to will its maxim as a universal law would be tantamount to setting up a lottery, in which the unlucky were always permitted, even required, to die for the edification of the lucky, if the latter so chose. If we knew this from the outset and willed it anyway, then we would will that some people would (though rarely) be used merely as means to an end. This we have forbidden.
That said, we might still object that the state has no power to intervene. As we all know, some moral lapses aren't properly subject to law, and this might be one of them. Then we should ask: could we will that the maxim behind intervention become universal law? The maxim that says it is okay to trespass, even forcibly, to save a life, particularly if the consequences of the trespass are trivial?
That seems fine to me. I don't at any rate see atrocities coming out of it, not in the way that I do with the only other alternative. The non-aggression presumption has been defeated. Break down the neighbor's door, open the window, and save the falling man's life. Compensate the neighbor afterward. (Note that trespass can be compensated to the sufferer; death cannot. This may also be a relevant consideration.)
Respect for property is indeed somewhat weakened, but respect for human life is strengthened. Property is a means to an end, and that end is nothing other than human life, with all of us considered as individuals and moral equals, and none merely as a means to an end.
Does the example yield enforceable positive interpersonal obligations? Yes it does, but only some quite trivial ones for the temporary use of property, and then only owing to some very unusual physical and moral circumstances. A left-liberal who was also ethically a Kantian might argue that the class of similar cases is on the contrary very large, but we need not agree with this claim, particularly when we consider the ways in which state interventions tend to use individuals directly and blatantly as the means toward other individuals' ends.
So we strike a bargain: We admit that in an exceptionally rare set of circumstances and perhaps a few others like it, we will violate the non-aggression principle in consideration of a higher end. That higher end will if properly considered return us directly to respect for property in all other circumstances. In return for this concession, we re-connect libertarian political theory to its own rich and profound history — re-connect it to Hume, Kant, Spencer, Hayek, and many of the rest of the classical liberals.
That seems like a good bargain to me.

Considered one of essentially the most frequent electrical wiring questions is regarding how to wire a switch. Even though utilizing switches at your house is kind of straightforward, wiring one particular might not be that uncomplicated for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is really quite simple to wire. There are actually various kinds of switches, but for this instance, let's say you happen to be setting up a single-pole toggle switch, an exceptionally prevalent swap (along with the easiest).
There are three colors of wires inside of a regular single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and inexperienced. Splice the black wire in two and link them over the terminal screws - just one on prime as well as other about the base screw of the swap. The white wire serves being a supply of uninterrupted electrical power and is also typically linked to some mild colored terminal screw (e.g., silver). Link the eco-friendly wire on the ground screw of your respective switch.
These methods would generally be adequate to make a normal switch operate without having a difficulty. Then again, in the event you are not confident that you choose to can carry out the process correctly and safely you much better allow the professionals get it done as a substitute. Following all, you will find a cause why this undertaking has become the most popular electrical wiring inquiries questioned by the majority of people.
For many explanation, tips on how to wire a ceiling fan can be one of essentially the most prevalent electrical wiring inquiries. To simplify this process, you need to use just one change to get a single ceiling fan. To wire the fan, it is only a make a difference of connecting the black wire in the ceiling fan for the black wire from the change. When there is a lightweight, the blue wire ought to be related into the black wire in the swap likewise.
You will discover explanations why these are definitely essentially the most normally questioned electrical wiring issues. One particular, many think it is really simple to carry out, and two, these are typically the typical electrical duties in your own home. But then you really shouldn't place your safety in danger as part of your intention to save cash. The stakes could even be considerably higher in the event you seek to get monetary savings and do an electrical wiring position without ample information or practical experience.

How to Form Strategic Partnerships Without Getting Crushed
16/05/2019 9 min read
Co-Authored by Jacob Sandler @ CEO Quest and David Feldman @ Indicator Ventures
The Cambridge Business English Dictionary defines a strategic partnership as "an arrangement between two companies or organizations to help each other or work together, to make it easier for each of them to achieve the things they want to achieve." In the world of startups, strategic partnerships with large industry players are prevalent because of their potential to skyrocket young companies to success. However, there are always risks when partnering with industry titans, and it is critical to understand these risks before taking such a partnership on.
What are these risks, and how does a CEO know when it's appropriate to engage in such a relationship? We brought together two industry experts, each with different backgrounds and experience with strategic partnering, to discuss what it takes to form and navigate successful, lasting strategic partnerships.
᛫ ᛫ ᛫
Mark Sochan of CEO Quest
Mark Sochan is a CEO coach, consultant, author, and speaker, as well as a former high-tech executive and entrepreneur. For over 25 years, he successfully negotiated and managed strategic partnership initiatives, including three successful tech startup exits that had strategic partnering at the core of their strategy.
In late 2018, Mark published his book Dancing With Elephants, The Art of Strategic Partnering based on insights cultivated through years of managing partnerships with industry leaders, including Microsoft, VMware, IBM, SAP, Capgemini, and Accenture.
Presently, Mark is passionate about helping ambitious technology companies master the art of identifying, pursuing, and closing breakthrough multi-million-dollar revenue opportunities.
Ben Luntz of Indicator Ventures
Ben Luntz is the Co-Founder and General Partner of Indicator Ventures, an early stage venture capital firm that backs and supports companies leveraging 'digital efficiencies' to generate material time and cost savings. Ben began his career as a marketer and operator, working with both early-stage businesses and some of the largest brands in the world. He has worked with a number of small marketing agencies, large agencies, and most notably started and sold his own agency, which spurred his interest in the world of venture capital.
Ben's decision to start Indicator Ventures was a natural progression of the work he was doing as an angel investor, mentor, and advisor to early-stage digital technology companies. Throughout his career, Ben has leveraged relationships with large companies and brings these experiences to his work at Indicator Ventures: "As an early stage investor, partnerships can provide a ton of fuel, momentum, leverage, and value that can ultimately drive growth. That's really what we're looking for, so when they're set up properly, [as investors] we love them."
Defining a Strategic Partnership
There are a lot of different kinds of partnerships out there, ranging from go-to-market partnerships with resellers, to collaborations with global SIs (system integrators) or inbound technologies. But not all of these are strategic.
For Mark, a strategic partnership is a business relationship that has the potential to add significant transformative value to your company. From a start-up company perspective, this almost always means that your strategic partner will be a market leader, or, what Mark refers to as an elephant.
"When you're partnering with an elephant, there are a significant number of strategic marketing benefits that arise as a result of being able to leverage the larger company's brand, including increased market awareness and improved customer credibility." — Mark Sochan
In any partnership, there is reciprocity, and both sides make the choice to enter due to the potential individual benefits that may result from the relationship.
As Ben aptly says, "A successful partnership is built around a core-value exchange. Each company, on both sides of the equation, needs to be deriving value. That value doesn't need to be equal, but both parties have to feel like they're achieving the value that they set out to achieve."
So what does an industry titan get out of partnering with an early-stage startup? Well, strategic partnerships only exist because these small companies are able to provide something an in-house team can't.
As Mark says, "In the other direction, the big company is usually looking for some sort of innovation spark. They're looking for tricks and tools that are going to help them compete more effectively with their big competitors, the other elephants that are in the market."
As a small company, it's easy to get excited when a large company takes an interest in you. But that interest comes with risk, and entering into strategic partnerships is a precarious pursuit. It's easy to get trampled.
Ben puts it bluntly: "I think oftentimes, startups make the mistake of thinking about a partnership only in terms of how great it could be, and fail to think about the downside."
Great isn't easy, even for a founder doing everything right. There are a lot of factors that come into play when managing a partnership of this magnitude, and countless hurdles to overcome. Here, Mark and Ben dive into some of the most common and challenging hurdles strategic partners need to overcome throughout their alliance.
The Elephant in the Room: Pacing
When approaching strategic partnerships, it is important to take a step back and appreciate the disparity between the two companies at hand, most notably in relation to their size. Inherently, the "elephant" is going to be a lot larger than the startup. As Mark notably points out, "Because of the difference in the size of the companies, there's going to be a real difference in the speed with which things happen and how decisions get made." That is to say, although there may be a real need to spark the partnership early, other factors might prevent this from happening at the desired speed.
Following this same train of thought, Ben reminds founders, "Big corporations tend to move slowly. This is often a result of having numerous stakeholders, sometimes with conflicting objectives, and navigating that can be a big part of the challenge in getting to the finish line with a partnership agreement."
It's important to note that a large company does not operate the same way as a nimble startup. Large corporations have systems and processes in place that make it more complicated to execute in a timely manner.
Mark was able to extrapolate on this notion and provide some examples of what might hold these companies up when it comes to execution: "When you're partnering with an elephant in the industry, there are going to be teams of people. I've been in meetings where there are over a dozen people involved on the other side, and you just feel like you're kind of getting bogged down in corporate bureaucracy. But that's a reality."
In fact, according to McKinsey, most large corporations now have at least 30 alliances (many have more than 100) that they are managing in congruence with the current partnership at hand.
The startup CEOs who successfully navigate strategic partnerships understand these differences going into the relationship. As Ben says, "These CEOs have the quality of thoughtfulness. They tend to be aggressive, but also respectful and perhaps most importantly, they have a visceral understanding of the dynamics of the partnership. Working with big corporations, you really have to know who to go to, how to position the ask and when to pull those levers."
Mark adds that the successful CEOs he sees are holders of a big vision — they have a tangible idea for innovation and are able to come up with solutions that big companies want and covet.
More than anything, he says that the CEOs "are very aware of the value that they bring to the table and also aware of what pain points are driving the big company."
Working Towards The Deal
It's easy to get carried away with excitement in the initial stages of forming a strategic partnership, especially when a tech giant everybody knows has demonstrated interest in your startup.
As strategic discussions continue and the initial terms of the partnership begin to take shape, excitement builds. But often, the closer the establishment of a partnership seems, the more precarious each individual term and decision feels.
As Mark points out, "in just about every big deal I've been involved in, it gets to a low point in the negotiations where there's some real strain and potential ugliness."
As any good business person knows, it's not a 'won' deal until there are signatures on paper. Until then, it's common for there to be stages where both sides are threatening to walk away from the table. This can be aggravated by the leverage big companies are able to exercise in these negotiations, sometimes putting forward onerous or seemingly excessive terms, especially in the areas of liability and indemnification.
One way to counter being pushed around by the large company is to understand the urgency that's driving the other side and apply leverage there.
Mark Sochan breaks it down:
"Usually, there's some event that is driving the larger company, and an urgency to get the deal done. So I see the smart negotiators really leverage those pain points. Typically, those pain points are around a deadline for a conference where they want to make a big marketing splash, or it might be the pressure of launching a new product within a specific timeframe, and deadlines around that. I've also seen real pressures around losses in the larger company's customer base."
Ben concurs: "The best way to create that optimal structure is to understand what's important to both sides, thinking about the key components of that core value exchange."
Knowing the value you bring to the table and understanding the value exchange in both directions is fundamental to keeping both parties talking through the nitty gritty details. Having an experienced and reputable contract lawyer can also have a significant impact on the outcome of these negotiations.
Dependency Clauses: Don't put all your eggs in one basket
When discussing terms, large companies will occasionally ask for exclusivity. This is a red flag, and it is imperative for the CEO to consider the implications of accepting such terms before doing so. A young company may hinder their ability to conduct business or engage in a partnership with another large corporation operating in a similar industry if they decide to "put all their eggs in one basket" and move forward with a particular strategic partnership.
As Ben puts it, "Generally speaking, when you have a material dependency on another company, whether it be a strategic partner or another business, it's never a good idea."
In other words, it is important to have a mutual understanding of the extent of exclusivity surrounding a partnership before entering into a binding agreement.
"As a ground rule, it's good to think about it this way: if this partnership went away tomorrow, would you still be in business? Would your business be materially affected?" — Ben Luntz
Investors take a portfolio approach for a reason — it diversifies their risk and potential for reward, ensuring they are never relying too heavily on any one investment's success. This is the same approach that one should take in pursuing strategic partners.
Mark puts it like this:
"At the end of the day, the right number of strategic partnerships is any number except for one. You always want to be at the table, having a discussion with a potential partner. You're going to learn stuff, and through that discussion and those learnings you might figure out the best way to forge a strategic partnership, or you might decide that incentives are not aligned and walk away from the partnership. But at least you're at the table, and the big guys know who you are, and you have a better insight into what the leaders in the industry are doing, and therefore what the market is doing."
The Contract is Just the Beginning
A signed contract is only the beginning. It's a milestone that signifies the start of the work itself. Mark says he sees it all the time: "Founders who think that once the deal is signed, and champagne bottles popped, that revenue checks will just start flowing in automatically." That's just not the case. There's a lot of heavy lifting that has to get done to make a partnership start producing.
Usually, the onus to get the project moving falls upon the startup. As the nimbler of the two companies, with the ability to rapidly onboard new projects, it is their responsibility to ensure deliverables are met on a timely schedule. As Ben says, "Managing the relationship is just as important as negotiating it and setting it up."
When it comes to best practices for how to do that, Ben says it comes down to communication, planning, and managing expectations. He adds, "Make sure that you're on the same page in terms of the plan, dates, and key deliverables. If you're not, it's important to raise a red flag and re-calibrate accordingly."
Dealing With Unmet Expectations
Once the terms are in place and the partnership is underway, the expectation is that both parties will begin to deliver their value to one another. However, this does not always go according to plan. Sometimes, the corporation fails to deliver on its promises, and sometimes the startup doesn't live up to the expectations of the corporation.
If the large company isn't delivering, the startup CEO needs to understand what levers they can pull. These shortcomings can arise from a myriad of different situations. Ben highlights a situation in which a large corporation failed to deliver below:
"We had invested in a hardware company in our first fund. That hardware company was incubated by a large commercial manufacturer, a multi-billion dollar global company and one of the largest commercial manufacturers on the planet. So you'd think that there'd be a line set, given that this CM had incubated — and had an equity stake in — the company. But, when it came time to produce the product, they were only delivering about a third of what they were contracted to deliver. The company approached the "elephant" multiple times, and the answer was essentially, 'sorry.'
Yes, they were in breach of contract. Yes, the startup had every right to go after them for that. But in reality, what were they going to do? Sue this multi-billion dollar global company? They didn't have the time, energy, or resources to do that. So, in that particular case, they had to pull the plug.
So, as a startup founder or CEO, you need to understand what levers you can pull if the situation begins to deteriorate. Do you have leverage as a small company? Sometimes, the only leverage you have is the ability to remove yourself from the partnership."
Ben goes on to say that there are a few important lessons to be learned from this story: First, just because you have a contract doesn't mean that it is set in stone. Second, it is necessary to monitor and manage these relationships incredibly proactively. In the event that things go awry, you need to be able to quickly switch gears in an effort to get ahead of any residual effect the situation may have on your business.
Again, if there is too much of a dependency on the corporation you are partnered with, your startup business will suffer in this scenario.
Strategic partnerships come with inherent risk, and at the end of the day, there are things you can control and things you can't. For big companies, strategic priorities shift and change regularly. Reorganizations occur and sometimes whole products get axed. These are risk factors outside of a startup founder's control. There is little that can be done to mediate them.
If you let stress and fear around what could go wrong take time away from the things you can do today, you radically reduce the potential for partnership success. All strategic partnerships are formed with the underlying hope that they will perform the way they were envisioned. This requires work and commitment from both parties. As CEO of your company, you have a responsibility to ensure your side of the bargain gets carried out.
As Mark aptly states, "At the end of the day all you can do is closely manage the relationship, keep your ear to the ground, and deliver on your end of the bargain."
