Alternative Crops for Drylands : Proactively Adapting to Climate Change and Water Shortages delves into the earth's smorgasbord of under appreciated edible plants native to the often waterless corners of the world. Research and development should be poured into these plants now, before climate change contributes further to the worldwide spread of deserts.
The growing global water crisis has contributed to the depletion of ancient water reserves known as aquifers, dried up rivers and lakes, and to 1.1 billion people not having access to safe drinking water. Worldwide, irrigation accounts for about 70% of freshwater usage. In order to drastically reduce water consumption, the global food supply will need to become much more water-wise. Improved cultivation techniques and technologies are central to this end. Yet, the development of new crop species taken from the wild is equally as important. Certain wild plants such as the South African Marula tree, for example, may yield multiple tons of a nut crop and fruit crop from the same tree in a single year, while requiring no irrigation.
The purpose of Alternative Crops for Drylands is to provide a botanical arsenal for combating deforestation & desertification, healing parched landscapes, and simultaneously creating fecund, edible oases in place of today's degraded landscapes. As such, the book highlights about 70 useful plant species, and discusses their cultural & climatic requirements, native habitats, uses, nutrition, and even propagation requirements.

Shock, Dragons Advance to OWL Winners Bracket Finals
Aaron Alford
After 33 weeks of competition, multiple format changes, and over 460 matches played across two continents, the Overwatch League will cap off the 2020 season with the Grand Finals weekend event, which kicked off on Thursday. Over the next few days, the top two teams in the NA and APAC divisions will compete in a double-elimination tournament bracket to decide the OWL 2020 Season Champion. The Grand Finals event also features a prize pool of over $3 million, with $1.5 million going to first place.

The Overwatch League kicked off their Grand Finals event on Thursday with a match between San Francisco Shock and Seoul Dynasty, as well as a series between Shanghai Dragons and Philadelphia Fusion. The two matches were the first occasion in 2020 where APAC teams played against NA teams in official competition. Although the top-seeded team from each region ended up advancing, it was the Dragons from the APAC region who left a stronger impression by putting on an absolutely incredible performance against Fusion. The Shock, on the other hand, struggled to defeat Seoul in a five map series and only barely advanced.
In regards to the meta, all four teams showed a preference for Roadhog/Sigma and Roadhog/Hammond tanklines. DPS wise, teams have continued to rely heavily on dual sniper and Tracer/Ashe setups to get the job done. The most popular support hero pick thus far has been Mercy, followed by Zenyatta and Ana. Although Winston Dive compositions were very popular in the lead up to the Grand Finals, that composition was a rare sight on Thursday.
San Francisco Shock narrowly advances over Seoul Dynasty
San Francisco Shock narrowly avoided a reverse sweep on Thursday, defeating Dynasty in a very close 3-2 match. With the victory, Shock will advance to the winner's bracket final on Friday, where they will compete against Shanghai Dragons to determine who will get the first slot in the championship match.
Shock started the series strong, rolling Seoul on the first two maps. Going into half time, Shock were sitting pretty with three match points in front of them. Their success in the early part of the match was driven primarily by Seonchang "ANS" Lee's incredible widowmaker plays. ANS ended the match with a 30% headshot rate as Widowmaker, which is an impressive percentage, especially in an Overwatch League match. The DPS player repeatedly found essential opening eliminations throughout the first couple of maps. His presence on Widow and Ashe also helped manage the threat of Joon-yeong "Profit" Park's extremely deadly Pharah. Although Profit still played some Pharah during the series, the threat of ANS sniping forced him off the hero on multiple occasions.

In the second half of the series, ANS went quiet while Seoul began to surge. Seoul clawed their way back into the series, backpacked by the incredible tank performances from Jae-hee "Gesture" Hong and Min-seo "Marve1" Hwang, both of whom looked fabulous throughout the series, even on maps which Seoul lost. After half-time, Dynasty came out and immediately took two maps in a row off of Shock, setting up a final definitive map on Busan. With victory in their reach, Seoul threw away their chances of winning the final map by C9ing not once, but twice. Dynasty failed to touch the objective and trigger overtime on both the first and final point of Busan, even though they had players alive and able to reach the point both times.
Although Seoul lost, they outperformed expectations by taking two maps against the highly respected Shock. Dynasty entered this weekend as the clear underdog, but their performance against San Francisco on Thursday was far more impressive than Fusion's performance against Dragons. Based on what we saw from Seoul on Thursday and how well they have performed in this playoff meta, it is entirely possible that Dynasty will make a run through the losers bracket to the Grand Championship game.
Dragons easily sweep Philadelphia aside
The Dragon's match against Fusion was not a close affair. Shanghai didn't just sweep Philly, they crushed them without mercy in a 3-0 victory. Fusion only picked up one point during the entire series. Shanghai's strong performance against one of NA's best teams bodes well for their chances of winning the championship match on Saturday.
The biggest difference-maker in the match was Dragon's discipline and strategic decision making. On the final two maps, they fully held Philly while on defense. Try as they might, Fusion couldn't manage to find a chink in the Dragons armor on either King's Row or Volskaya Industries.
And with that Volskaya map over, we win the match 3-0! Tomorrow we'll be taking on the Shock so don't miss it!#ShanghaiDragons #OWL2020 pic.twitter.com/aLd14pkeJs
— Shanghai Dragons (@ShanghaiDragons) October 8, 2020
On the two final maps, Dragons used a unique defensive strategy that split their team into two smaller groups, with a tank, healer, and a sniper on each side of the point. While Shanghai's snipers were constantly flanking and finding kills, the Fusion sniper had no luck. Hee-su "Heesu" Jeong, try as he might, could never find angles as Widowmaker, because Dragons were extremely careful and disciplined to never peek him. This left Fusion in a frustrating situation, where they couldn't find opening kills on the Dragons without exposing themselves. Once Fusion pushed far enough, the two groups of Dragon players converged and focused on eliminating Su-min "SADO" Kim on Roadhog. Since Shanghai was able to consistently kill Sado early on in fights, it became very difficult for Philly to win fights, since their entire strategy relied on Roadhog's survival.
Shanghai's defensive strategy is notable because it diverges from their historical preference of aggression. In a pregame video feature, Byung-sun "Fleta" Kim described Dragons as a spear, not a shield. However, on Thursday the team showed off their ability to be patient and defensive, demonstrating that they can play as spear or shield when needed. It will be interesting to see if they continue to employ these defensive strategies against Shock on Friday.
It is hard to tell if Fusion should be embarrassed by their performance, or if Shanghai was just that much better. One thing is for sure, Dragons came to claim that championship, and If they keep playing the way they did on Thursday it is going to be very difficult for any team to stop them.
Friday Preview
On Friday, Shock will take on Dragons in the Winner's bracket match to determine which team will be the first to advance to the Grand Finals. That match will be followed by the loser's bracket semifinal between Seoul and Fusion. The winner of the losers bracket semifinal match will advance to face the loser of the winner's bracket final. Finally, the winner of that match will decide the final team who will compete for the championship on Saturday.

Q: Neo4j Traversal I have 2 questions
1.If I have a graph like below
A->B->C->D
A->B->C->E
My requirement is to get the path (start to the very end) so I can traverse the nodes and perform some actions based on the criteria.
I'm using Traversal Description with uniqueness option as below.
    TraversalDescription td = Traversal.description()
                .relationships(KNOWS, Direction.OUTGOING)
                .uniqueness(Uniqueness.NODE_PATH)
                .evaluator(Evaluators.excludeStartPosition());
I'm expecting the below results
A->B->C->D
A->B->C->E
But I'm getting the below results. I tried both NODE_PATH and NODE_GLOBAL.
A->B
A->B->C
A->B->C->D
A->B->C->E
2.What is the most efficient way to clean up the old nodes which are no longer needed (based on time stamp)? I have 2 options
    1.Traverse the node from start to end and collect the node ids that can be deleted. Then loop through the list and delete the node and it's relationships/nodes
    2. Cypher-query to delete node and relationship matching the date criteria
Thanks a lot in advance!

A: Answering (1) uniqueness controls which nodes/relationships will be (re)visited during a traversal. However it doesn't control which paths gets returned out to the Path iterator. That behaviour you'll have to encode in an Evaluator. In your case it could be an evaluator based on path length or a particular criteria on the end node, e.g:
// for A->B->C->D
Evaluators.atDepth( 3 )
or
// for returning paths where the end node has property "bla"
new Evaluator() {
    public Evaluation evaluate( Path path ) {
        return Evaluation.ofIncludes( path.endNode().hasProperty( "bla" ) );
    }
}
Unfortunately there's no built-in way of getting only the longest paths it visits in each branch. It would be a nice feature actually.

Milestones: Premier Woodwork Celebrates 20 Years
By Kara Anderson // Winter 2015
Meet a custom carpentry group that began amidst a recession and continues to grow, even through the latest downturn. Find out how this group continues to find success.
John Kruschke and Phil Friske have grown Premier Woodwork from a two-man operation to a team of 14 talented custom woodworkers.
Inside a brick building on Rockford's Seventh Street is a shop that smells like freshly chopped firewood. In every direction you look, men in jeans and masks are sanding and sawing, priming and painting.
"You should have seen this place this summer," says John Kruschke, owner of Premier Woodwork, 1522 Seventh St. "We were just so busy. We're just coming back from Christmas, and things are picking up again. We just shipped out a lot."
Kruschke points to a large project taking shape, a reception counter for a nursing home in Chicago. Nearby, a custom closet is underway for a house on Rockford's National Avenue. There's molding being created, cabinets being finished, and a stack of wood that looks like someone sliced through a tree trunk vertically.
"Back plates for some taxidermy work," Kruschke says, smiling. "Someone's going to put some antlers on there."
Premier Woodwork creates high-end commercial and residential millwork, and can help customers with anything from simple repairs and refinishing jobs to completely customized designs.
Kruschke may not have imagined so many projects to oversee 20 years ago, when he started a one-man operation at the corner of Cedar and Avon streets in downtown Rockford. Despite a recession and many changes to the industry, business has been good for the Premier crew – so good that they just celebrated a 20-year anniversary last year, and they're thinking about an expansion.
"So long as the work keeps coming along, we're going to go after it," says Kruschke.
Building from Scratch
Premier Woodwork began about as simply as a business can.
"In 1994, the company I was working for, Schmeling Millwork, went out of business and I had a choice – I could look for another place to work, or go out on my own," says Kruschke. "I was kind of flying by the seat of my pants."
But Kruschke had an advantage: he had worked for his dad, a shop manager, back in Milwaukee, before he moved to Rockford.
His father provided him with some tricks of the trade.
Kruschke knew he was taking a risk, so he started small. He set up a small shop doing strictly residential work like kitchen projects, entertainment units and fireplace surrounds. It didn't take long before he hired Phil Friske, who has been with Premier ever since.
With Friske on staff, the pair expanded the business quickly, and even took on a few commercial jobs. As the business grew, they soon needed a larger space. As a small-but-bustling operation, they didn't have time to put their many projects on hold, when they found their current location.
"We were in here at night tearing stuff out and getting the shop set up," recalls Friske, who has, over time, transitioned from shop supervisor to draftsman and machine programmer.
Twenty years later, the crew has expanded to 14, and work has gone from local to international. Last year, Premier Woodwork designed and created a kitchen, bar and bathrooms for a home in St. Kitts, in the Caribbean. Kruschke admits that was one time when he wanted to personally deliver Premier's work, but his commitment to quality kept him close to home.
"Everything goes through me that goes out of this shop," he says proudly.
When Premier began in 1994, its business all came through word of mouth. The crew of two would create a custom kitchen design, and soon the phone would be ringing with new customers who had seen their work. Higher-end residential projects led to business connections and referrals.
Today, the company has carved out a niche creating reception counters, nursing stations and patient rooms for the health care industry, as well as teller desks for banks. Work has included a variety of projects – from car dealerships and work in downtown Chicago, to work for Arizona State University and high-end home projects in Scottsdale.
The team has even taken on historical renovations, like the University of Illinois-Chicago police station, matching moldings to the building's original design.
"With every project, a part of me goes into it, and I try to make it so the customer is really pleased," says Kruschke.
Although he is a humble man, Kruschke credits his commitment to quality for keeping Premier Woodwork going when so many similar shops have been forced to close.
Friske has stayed in the industry through two recessions now – one that brought him back to millwork in the 1980s. "The industry has been plagued with a lot of closings," Friske says. "There have been a lot of changes over the years.
Technology has hugely affected the manufacturing process. It used to be you'd give a man a drawing, but there's new equipment now, so that it's all automated."
Design has changed a lot, too. Dark wood, huge in the 1970s, is making a comeback, Kruschke says. But warming drawers and 5-foot stoves? Those are brand-new trends, but the staff can easily do it, thanks to years of experience doing personalized work.
Component shops have also changed the business, and big kitchen stores have created even more competition.
"But we try to do as much as we can right here," Friske says.
Although the industry seems to be heading toward quicker work, and away from the careful customization that has been Premier's cornerstone, quality remains important to Kruschke.
"I always tell people to look at the details – it's the small details that really matter."
Carving Out Partnerships
Kruschke is making big changes in order to expand his company.
"We've invested in computerized equipment and cabinet software – where we used to have saws, we have a computerized router that does all the cutting," he says. "We've taken the steps to keep up with the times."
It hasn't always been easy to find good employees, Kruschke and Friske agree, because they need workers who can see a project through the entire process. Over the past few years, a solid crew has gelled and business has continued to grow.
Both Kruschke and Friske talk of a passion for their work. Krushcke still wears a tape measure on his belt, and his desk is covered with sketches and drawings.
"I'm always thinking about it," he says with a smile.
And Friske agrees that Premier has been able to grow because the crew genuinely takes pleasure in a job well done. "You get to create things – concrete, tangible things, and you get to see results every day," he says.
He adds that, for years, he enjoyed driving past a building where he did work, and showing it to his kids.
Customers seem to appreciate that commitment. Many times, the Premier crew has been invited back to a home for a thank-you party, says Friske.
"It's always challenging, but it's been exciting growing with the company and seeing how things have changed."
Another big change might be right around the corner.
Kruschke is considering looking for a larger space and may even create a showroom to display samples of Premier's custom work.
But even if the building gets a little more glamorous, Kruschke promises not to lose the core business theory that has worked so well over the past 20 years.
"Our philosophy is to be honest and do things at a fair price and focus on quality work," he says. "And I don't like to brag, but I've heard we're one of the best."

Fitness bracelets, smart watches, and contact lenses that test your blood glucose level are all examples of the ways that wearable technology is entering our everyday lives. Now we can add smartphone hearing aids to that list. Major hearing aid manufacturers have worked with Apple and Android smartphone makers to build technology that allows your hearing aids to connect wirelessly with your phone.
New smartphone hearing aid technology opens up a world of possibilities for hearing aid wearers. The new functions and abilities of these hearing aids aim to make your life easier and more convenient by giving you unprecedented, personalized control over your hearing experience.
How can smartphone hearing aids make your life easier and more convenient? Here are a few things you can look forward to doing with this new technology.
When you get smartphone hearing aids, they'll connect wirelessly with a free app on your phone which will allow you to make adjustments easily and discreetly. To everyone else, making adjustments to your hearing aids looks like you're texting or checking Facebook. The days are gone when you have to reach behind your ear to toggle the buttons—alerting everyone to the fact that you're wearing hearing aids.
Besides making your hearing aids more discreet, the phone app also gives you more control to customize your hearing experience. The app allows you to control volume, programs, bass, treble, and more. If you don't like the way your hearing aids sound, now it's up to you to change it with technology never before available.
Hearing aids are easy to misplace, but with new GPS tracking technology in smartphone hearing aids, you can always find them with the help of the free app on your phone. The app tracks the location of your hearing aids, so you always know where they are.
In addition to showing you the exact position of your hearing aids on a map in real time, you don't have to waste time searching for misplaced hearing aids in your own home. With the "hot and cold" feature, you can simply walk around your house and the app will tell you when you're getting closer or farther away from your hearing aids—saving time and headaches.
We know one of the hassles of wearing hearing aids is constantly switching programs—especially for places you visit frequently, like a church, favorite restaurant, or family member's house. Because smartphone hearing aids use GPS to track the location of your hearing aids, they can "remember" certain locations and adjust automatically when they sense you are there. All you have to do is save the settings for the places you frequently visit, and the hearing aids will adjust automatically when you go there! No hassle. No Fuss.
Instead of investing in extra accessories, like a remote microphone, to help expand your hearing ability, smartphone hearing aids allow you to use your phone as a microphone. If you're in a noisy restaurant, simply place your phone on the table between you and your companion and stream their voice right to your ears.
Top hearing aid brands have introduced smartphone hearing aids to the market in the last couple of years, including ReSound, Starkey, and Oticon.
In addition to the major manufacturers' hearing aids listed above, TruHearing is pleased to announce that we are releasing our first smartphone hearing aid in November 2016, called Flyte. The new TruHearing Flyte hearing aids have all of the same features outlined above but may provide you even bigger savings.
