Oregon state lawmakers abandoned a multimillion-dollar project to develop early warning systems for earthquakes and wildfires, and scientists warn that the funding shake-up could endanger public safety and put Oregon further behind other West Coast states in preparing for natural disasters.
Researchers were shocked when nearly $12 million to expand ShakeAlert and AlertWildfire — early warning systems to help detect significant earthquakes and wildfires — unexpectedly went up in smoke last month, just days before the end of the legislative session.
Money for the projects was included as part of a larger funding package but was stripped in a last-minute amendment.
Disaster preparedness has continually been a focal point as Western states are poised to enter the hottest and driest months of wildfire season. And two massive earthquakes in remote areas of Southern California this month reminded the public it's only a matter of time before the next destructive quake hits.

"We don't know when the next big earthquake or wildfire will strike, but we know it will happen at some point," said Douglas Toomey, a seismologist and earth sciences professor at the University of Oregon who helps run both early warning detection systems. And Oregon is "woefully" unprepared, he said.
Alerts designed to detect natural disasters before they happen
Gov. Kate Brown, who included the $12 million in funding for the projects in her proposed budget last year, has told reporters the decision not to expand the early detection systems was one of the "biggest disappointments" of this year's legislative session.
ShakeAlert and AlertWildfire are designed to detect natural disasters as they start and alert responders and the public before significant damage occurs. They are managed by a consortium of public universities and funded through state, federal and private partnerships.

In Oregon, the programs are in the initial phases and need significant state investments to expand to a point that they'll be useful to the public, Toomey said.
AlertWildfire is a system of cameras stationed in some of the most remote and fire-prone parts of Oregon, Nevada and California. It has provided critical information to first responders in over 600 fires during the past three fire seasons, allowing firefighters in some cases to contain blazes before they spiral out of control.
ShakeAlert, meanwhile, is a sensor system being built out across California, Oregon and Washington.
The sensors pick up on faster-moving but less-damaging energy waves that emerge during the start of an earthquake. They can then sound the alarm before the stronger, more destructive secondary wave, giving people seconds or minutes to prepare depending on the size of the earthquake and their distance from the epicenter.

California and Washington allocated significant money to warning systems
Other Western states have thrown significant cash behind the two systems, allowing them to build out hundreds of earthquake sensors and wildfire cameras.
Cities and states need at least 75% of their earthquake sensors in place before officials can begin alerting the public through the ShakeAlert app.
Los Angeles became the first U.S. city to make the app available in January. The system could be sending alerts to the rest of California by the end of the year thanks to a $16.3 million investment from state lawmakers.
Additional emergency management funds also have allowed California to expand its use of AlertWildfire, and the state is expected to install 200 to 300 new wildfire cameras by October.
Washington's ShakeAlert system could be ready by October 2020, and the state contributed $1 million this year to enhance the network.
Funding woes: Oregon agency that studies earthquakes could be abolished
Oregon has three wildfire cameras, needs 100 more earthquake sensors
Meanwhile, only three wildfire cameras have been installed in Oregon, and the state still has to build over 100 more earthquake sensors before alerts can be sent through ShakeAlert.
Without any additional money from the state, ShakeAlert will remain dependent on federal funds. That could mean the system won't be online until 2021 at the earliest — far later than Oregon's neighboring states.
State lawmakers didn't specify why funding for ShakeAlert and AlertWildfire was abandoned, but it's common for last-minute funding shake-ups to happen based on available resources, according to the office of Sen. Elizabeth Steiner Hayward, who chairs the legislative committee in charge of funding decisions.
Lizzy Atwood Wills, chief of staff to Steiner Hayward, said ShakeAlert and AlertWildfire were some of the many projects not to receive funding this year. Investments are prioritized "within the limited resources available," she said.
Toomey said he still doesn't understand why it wasn't considered a priority, saying the money would have created jobs and attracted additional federal matching funds besides possibly saving lives.
"It feels like the state is demoting public safety," he said. "There are lives at stake here."

India launches first internet hotline to tackle surge in child porn
Siddharth Pillai, co-director of Indian anti-trafficking charity Prerana's Aarambh Initiative that will run the hotline said it would be the first step to removing online images.Reuters | September 20, 2016, 09:23 IST
NEW DELHI (Thomson Foundation) - India on Monday launched its first internet hotline to encourage people to report online child pornography and curb a surge in photographs and videos on the internet showing children being sexually exploited, the founders of the initiative said.
Siddharth Pillai, co-director of Indian anti-trafficking charity Prerana's Aarambh Initiative that will run the hotline said it would be the first step to removing online images.
"First report, then block, and then take down," Pillai told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
"Blocking can happen within a couple of hours of reporting, while taking the content down could take up to a week depending on the country where the servers are hosted."
The hotline is a simple online form which the public, police, internet companies and victims can access in either Hindi or English.
Child sexual abuse imagery is a global problem, say experts. The majority of images are found in North America and Europe as the internet service is most developed, with huge capacity and high speeds, coupled with big server centers.
There is no accurate data on the number of Indian children being exploited in pornographic material -- either being forced to show their sexual organs or made to engage in sexual acts -- as many victims do not go to the police due to fear and shame.
There were 96 reports of children in India being sexually exploited in online imagery in 2015 -- a rise of 140 percent from 2014, according to National Crimes Records Bureau data.
Susie Hargreaves, Chief Executive of Britain's Internet Watch Foundation (IWF), which runs an established child pornography hotline, said the facility in India was much-needed.
"When the IWF was set up in 1996, 18 percent of the world's child sexual abuse images were hosted in the UK," Hargreaves told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.
"Today that is 0.2 percent because of our work with the internet industry. We want to help India develop a clean, safe internet to use and to side-step the issues which the UK had."
The IWF will analyse reports on the Indian hotline to check if the victim is a child and assess the severity of the abuse.
With the help of the IWF's 120 partners, such as tech firms such as Google, Facebook and Twitter, the material is traced to where the server is hosted. It is then blocked, eventually removed from the internet and the information shared with police for prosecution.

Arts & Life Life & Style Cannabis Dear Herb: Can I legally plant the seeds I found in my legal weed?
Dear Herb: Can I legally plant the seeds I found in my legal weed?
Government-sanctioned cannabis seeds are hard to come by in Canada right now
Posted: 2:42 PM CST Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2018 Last Modified: 6:24 PM CST Thursday, Nov. 8, 2018 | Updates
Dear Herb: I bought some legal weed from my local store, and found seeds within the buds. Can I use these as my legal seeds for home cultivation? — Seeds of Hope
Dear Seeds: This is a fascinating question, at least for a cannabis nerd like me.
At this point, you've probably read media reports about the dilemma for aspiring home cannabis cultivators in Canada. Even though federal law now permits Canadian adults to grow up to four cannabis plants at home, the law also requires those plants to come from legally-sourced seeds or seedlings.
Right now, no one's actually selling those starting materials (sales of legal cannabis seeds and clones might start sometime in 2019), so home growers who want to stay within the boundaries of the law are out of luck. You might have just hit the jackpot finding those seeds in your legally purchased cannabis. Let's review what the Cannabis Act says about cultivation:
"Unless authorized under this Act, it is prohibited for an individual who is 18 years of age or older to cultivate, propagate or harvest, or to offer to cultivate, propagate or harvest,
(a) a cannabis plant that is from a seed or plant material that they know is illicit cannabis; or
(b) more than four cannabis plants at any one time in their dwelling-house."
The seeds in question were sold to you from a legal, government-regulated source, so I don't see how they could possibly be illicit. I'm not a lawyer, but it seems to me that you could plant up to four of these seeds at home without violating the law.
There's a botanical catch, though.
The highest-quality, most potent cannabis bud comes from unfertilized female cannabis plants. That's why cannabis seeds sold for home cultivation are typically "feminized," meaning they're guaranteed to be females when they grow up.
The seeds you found in your legal cannabis bud likely came from a female cannabis plant that became an intersex cannabis plant, explains expert cannabis breeder Ryan Lee, CEO of Chemovar Corp. (The cannabis community often calls such plants "hermaphrodites," but Lee says the term "intersex" is more accurate.)
The most likely scenario here is that the female plant became intersex as a result of environmental stress, and grew some male pollen sacs. Then it pollinated itself.
Because that female plant was simultaneously the "mother" and "father" of its own seeds, Lee explains, any resulting seeds would grow up just like their mother — "genetically female, but they'd have a predisposition to be intersex."
Assuming this is indeed what happened with your legal weed, any female plants that grow from these seeds will have a heightened risk of pollinating themselves and growing their own seeds.
"Plants that produce seed, they put the energy into producing seed and they put less energy into producing cannabinoids and terpenes," explains Lee.
Seed-producing female plants should yield some cannabis bud, but that weed will be less potent than it would be if the plants had gone unfertilized. Plus, it will contain even more seeds that you'll want to pick out of the bud before you use it, just like hippies back in the day.

"Plants that produce seed, they put the energy into producing seed and they put less energy into producing cannabinoids and terpenes."–Ryan Lee
Here's a question for you, Seeds of Hope: what kind of legal cannabis contained these seeds? That might be useful information for other Canadian cannabis gardeners.
Generally speaking, finding seeds in cannabis bud indicates poor cultivation practices and a low-quality product, but in this case, I could imagine seeded legal cannabis bud being a popular item!
If you can, please snap a photo of the package containing this seeded cannabis, including the lot number that should be listed somewhere in the fine print.
A photo of the bud and the seeds would also be useful. Please send any photos to me at dearherb@theleafnews.com.
Updated on Thursday, November 8, 2018 4:54 PM CST: Corrects erroneous botanical information regarding the odds of seeds from an intersex cannabis plant being male or female. Adds quotes from Ryan Lee.
Updated on Thursday, November 8, 2018 6:24 PM CST: Minor edits.

Among the many times we stroll down a street, ride a bus, or hang in coffee shops, we see people with headphones or earphones. However, they may not just be listening to music. They could very well be listening to a podcast. That's why podcasts for advertising is becoming the new rage for companies.
A podcast is a digital audio (or also sometimes, a video) recording that is usually part of a complete series which can be downloaded or listened to online. Podcasts are aired regularly, much like a radio talk show or TV show. Nowadays, podcasts are a popular medium. A lot of celebrities and influencers have regular podcasts, and there are droves of people supporting them.
A Podcast's Appeal
Podcasts are usually focused on a specific topic or revolve around a personality. It is casual, sometimes unscripted, and is generally recorded in a home office, a studio, or even on the go. Since it is streamed online, there's also an opportunity for listeners to send in questions or leave comments—adding spice to the podcast.
The most popular venue to listen to podcasts is at home. Others listen to podcasts in the car, while walking, or at the office.
Podcast Listeners Statistics
According to Apple, there were only 250,000 podcasts on iTunes in 2013. In 2018, this number grew to 500,000 active podcasts. In fact, the number of podcast listeners fueled this growth. Latest figures show that there are more than 112 million people who have listened to podcasts in the United States.
Notably, there was also an 11 percent growth on the number of podcast listeners from 2017 to 2018. Pointedly, in 2017, about 69 percent of podcast listeners used a smartphone, tablet, or another mobile device. Only 31 percent listened on computers. In contrast, in 2013, 58 percent of podcast consumers listened on their computers, while 42 percent listened on mobile devices.

Creating Strong Digital Revenue
Podcasts already existed even before 2005. However, its popularity waned a bit before gaining momentum again during the last five years. This time, advertisers who have been spending on online ads are tapping into the potential of podcasts. Companies large and small are latching on to its popularity. They are now even producing their own podcasts or spending good money to sponsor one.
The Daily," a podcast from The New York Times, has been airing for less than two years with an audience of 5 million listeners per month. Reports say that "The Daily" has over $290,000 a month in sponsorship.
According to the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), the amount of money spent on podcasts will reach $659 million by 2020—more than double the $314 recorded in 2017. The so-called "baked-in" ads—spiels or mentions from the presenter or host—are still the most preferred format. Remarkably, some gifted podcasters can weave in brand mentions like it's the most natural thing in the world. This is what advertisers are after.
Podcasts are becoming all the rage, becoming a popular digital medium.
But what makes this digital medium so popular?
Listening is refreshing. The popularity of graphs and video has resulted in an explosion of video content. Additionally, social media can be tiring with a scrolling newsfeed. With podcasts, listeners can wear their earphones or headsets and let the audio play while they do other activities. The talking voice is also more engaging—with nuances in the voice quality, silences, and pauses providing emphasis in the delivery.
Cost of Production. In producing a podcast, one only needs a good quality microphone and audio editing software. Successful podcasts have a cost per thousand impressions—abbreviated as CPM (cost per mille— "mille" is Latin for thousand)—of between $20 and $45. In comparison, a web ad's CPM ranges from $1 to $20 while TV's CPM ranges from $5 to $20. This fact shows a relatively high return on investment.
Mobility. Majority of internet users nowadays use a mobile device, allowing listeners to download and listen to podcasts wherever they are. Listeners can choose to listen right after they download an episode, or to save the podcast and listen to it at a more convenient time. A lot of people listen to podcasts on the commute or while in the gym.
Connected Cars. With the rise of connected cars, it is now possible to stream audio while driving. Commuters benefit from this technology, and it has contributed to the increasing growth of podcasts.
Captive Audience and Target Markets
Anna Bager, the IAB's Executive Vice President of Industry Initiatives explained that advertisers love podcasters because they can capture their audience's attention and keep them engaged.
Early influencers have shown that podcasts can be viable as a broadcasting venue and as a platform for monetization. Podcasts make it easier for advertisers to reach different demographics. The younger generation can listen to ads without switching off the podcast or skipping through the commercial.
An Insight on Podcast Listeners
Interestingly, 56 percent of podcast listeners are men, and 44 percent are women. Podcast listeners between the ages of 18-34 most likely listen monthly. Those who listen at least once a month subscribe to an average of 6 podcasts. They also constitute 44 percent of all listeners, with those aged 35-54 comprising 33 percent.
Podcasts listeners are better educated than the general population. Around 30 percent of listeners have a graduate degree—with 27 percent having a bachelor's degree.
Podcasts, Now and Beyond
Podcasts are taking marketing and advertising to a new digital level. It has created new opportunities for various companies and brands to make their presence known to a broader audience.
Podcasts also show how discerning audiences have become on the kind of content they want to read, listen to, or watch. At a time when audience attention is supposedly short, here's a medium that keeps them engaged and entertained for a more extended period. Only time can tell how far this love for podcasts would go—from this generation to the next.

Our Bean
Start Subscription
At Granville Island Coffee Company, all our beans come from Fair Trade certified producers. The principles of Fair Trade align with our company's values of integrity and sustainability. It's important to us that everyone we work with is treated with equality and respect. It's equally important to us that the coffee beans and other materials we use are produced with care for the sustainability of our Earth.
We strive to make ethical choices in everything we do, and starting with Fair Trade certified coffee beans is one of the ways we succeed.
Millions of people around the world are involved in the production of coffee. They depend on the world coffee markets to earn a living and provide for themselves, their families, and their communities. Most of these people live in vulnerable parts of the world that have historically been economically disadvantaged. The concept of Fair Trade was introduced to empower these people and to ensure that they are fairly compensated for their labours.
The world coffee markets are volatile, and the price can raise or lower dramatically in a short time. The principles of Fair Trade protect producers from these fluctuating prices by ensuring they receive a set minimum price for their coffee – no matter how low the market price might be. This enables producers to carry on with their work knowing that they have some financial security, bringing stability to their businesses, as well as to the lives of their workers.
Producers also receive a 'Fair Trade Premium', which is money that is to be used to improve their businesses and their communities. Fair Trade Premiums have been used to improve education, to build health facilities, to build better housing for workers, to buy agricultural equipment, etc.
To qualify for Fair Trade certification, producers must agree to abide by the standards set by the Fair Trade organisation. These standards include democratic decision making, the use of sustainable environmental practices, and adherence to international labour rules – such as no forced or child labour.
"Fairtrade as a certification is much more than merely an environmental certification, it is the only and best ethical and social certification that really ensures social and environmental, ethical and economic impact, and therefore human impact."
Enrique Calderon
Coffee farmer, CoopeAgri, Costa Rica
Ultimately, Fair Trade is about respect – respect for each other, respect for the environment, and respect for the work it takes to produce a quality product. People want to be able to take care of themselves, their families, and their communities. When people work hard and are fairly compensated for that work, their pride and self-respect carry through to everything else they do. Fair Trade standards ensure that workers will not be taken advantage of, mistreated, or short-changed in any way.
Fair Trade standards also ensure that the work will be carried out with sustainability for the environment in mind, ending harmful farming practices that destroy ecosystems and leave the environment barren for future generations.
Fair Trade is simply one way of helping to make the world a better place.

Police 'will close down pubs where rape and sex assaults happen'
Detective Chief Superintendent Mick Duthie warned police would strive to bring more rapists to justice by targeting male behaviour, including shutting troublesome properties down.
In an interview with the Guardian newspaper, he said: "We are looking at areas that generate high levels of sexual offences, identifying nightclubs or pubs where this might happen, and which we can link back to rapes and use the licensing laws against these premises."
He added they would also be advising potential victims about leaving themselves vulnerable, as well as using covert policing tactics to take perpetrators off the streets.
The drive, to be implemented by the Met's sex crime unit Sapphire, is aimed at combating a significant decrease in the number of rapes reported to police in London.
Detective Chief Superintendent Duthie told the newspaper: ""If you were in Lewisham High Street at night and someone had a glass or bottle stuck in their neck, we would use the licensing legislation to close that place down.
One in nine rape complaints 'written off' by police
Police officer faked information in rape cases
Jimmy Savile: patients and man among victims
"But until now we haven't done that for sexual offences."
He added the reasons for a reduction in rape complaints was "a concern", saying it was unclear whether it was because there were less sex attacks happening, better intervention at an earlier stage or less reports.
"If they are not reporting, why are they not reporting?" he said.
"Is it because victims are losing confidence because there is a perception they won't get justice, and people won't get charged? We are doing significant work at the moment with our partners looking into all of that."
The new tactics will include advising women about how they can be less vulnerable to attack.
"We have to make sure we are not targeting the victims but the suspects," he said.
"But we do need to educate people that if they go out and get hammered they are vulnerable - vulnerable to being assaulted - vulnerable to falling over and vulnerable to being raped.
"80 per cent of our victims have one form of vulnerability or another, a permanent or temporary vulnerability through drink, drugs, mental health, age. So there are things that we can do to prevent the offence happening in the first place."

Description: For nearly three decades Mark Lee Ping-bin has collaborated with many of the most urgent filmmakers in Asia. As the primary cinematographer to Hou Hsiao-hsien, lensing classics such as A Time to Live and a Time to Die (SFIFF 1987), Goodbye South, Goodbye (SFIFF 1997, 2003) and Three Times (SFIFF 2006), Lee has altered the visual grammar of filmmaking. Let the Wind Carry Me documents Lee's working process and philosophical outlook, as he strives to present a vision of the world to filmgoers. With discussions on Lee's work with Hou and other Asian master directors with whom Lee has collaborated such as Hirokazu Kore-eda, Wong For nearly three decades Mark Lee Ping-bin has collaborated with many of the most urgent filmmakers in Asia. As the primary cinematographer to Hou Hsiao-hsien, lensing classics such as A Time to Live and a Time to Die (SFIFF 1987), Goodbye South, Goodbye (SFIFF 1997, 2003) and Three Times (SFIFF 2006), Lee has altered the visual grammar of filmmaking. Let the Wind Carry Me documents Lee's working process and philosophical outlook, as he strives to present a vision of the world to filmgoers. With discussions on Lee's work with Hou and other Asian master directors with whom Lee has collaborated such as Hirokazu Kore-eda, Wong Kar-wai and Tran Anh Hung, Lee's intense and beautiful way of seeing is made clear. His tireless quest to picture things just so, however, does take a toll on Lee's personal life. His status as an itinerant artist blows him from project to project, leaving his wife and children anchored to their home in Los Angeles without direct access to their husband and father. The demand for Lee's services is great, and for good reason, as his economical and often fearless ideas have made lasting impact on the stunning design of his films. And it appears that success hasn't changed Lee, except perhaps in giving him the means and time to delve even more deeply into questions of the esoteric nature of perception. But, as the film offers discreetly, at what price?

Q: What makes bathroom soap bars to crack during winter season? Is there some relation between winter season and cracking of bathroom soaps? I noticed that , cracking happens only during winter season.I also learned earlier from physics stack that, During winter air becomes more dry and that causes lot of static electric discharges. Does the cracking got anything to do with dryness of air?can somebody guide me to do experiment to verify it?

A: I suspect it's because when the soap dries it shrinks, like a sponge, river mud, or cloth, because the remaining water has surface tension pulling the material together. It dries from the outside in, so the differential shrinkage causes stress, so the material cracks.
I doubt if it has anything to do with static electricity.
There are ways to dry things without shrinkage, as in the manufacture of aerogels.

This is a short FYI on what things you shouldn't freeze. As always I explore ideas that I have little knowledge of or would like to be more well informed about.
hard cheeses – to give them additional life, but usually they last pretty long anyway.
eggs in their shells- they lose their consistency and can crack. If you want to freeze eggs break them into a freezer bag and scrabble them.
Apparently some dry spices with change flavor and get bitter if they are frozen.
Most vegetables and fruits have a high content of water that will break down the cell walls when frozen and get mushy and brown when defrosted.
I can't find any fish or meat products that can't be frozen but be aware that freezing does NOT kill harmful bacteria, it only slows the growth. So never refreeze fish or meat that has defrosted or has been frozen before. You can cook it, then freeze it again. The cooking process kills the bacteria and gives you a fresh start if cooked properly.
raw fish over night before eating as sashimi or sushi, because the freezing kills the parasites in the flesh.
Artificial sweeteners (why would you want to eat them any how) will lose their effectiveness when frozen.

Q: Best way for using JSP and Servlets in an MVC webapp I'm working on a dynamic website in Java and I'm interested in sticking with the MVC pattern.
What is the best way to divide the work of a webapp between JSP and Servlets?
Should I see my JSP file as the view of the program and the Servlet more as the controller?
If I should use the Servlet as a controller, is it wise to give a Servlet more than one functionallity, for example: send in an action number to the Servlet and the Servlet will switch case on it to decide which action to do. This way i can create very few Servlets and each one would be in charge of a separate type of requests.

A:
Should I see my JSP file as the view of the program and the Servlet more as the controller?

Yes.  JSPs are best used for implementing views.
Depending on your application requirements, there may be other views that are not implemented as JSPs.  But your proposed division of responsibility is a good starting point.

If I should use the Servlet as a controller, is it wise to give a Servlet more than one functionallity, for example: send in an action number to the Servlet and the Servlet will switch case on it to decide which action to do.

This is more debatable.  You can either have a small number of servlets and switch inside the servlet or have a large number of servlets and switch in the "web.xml" file or in some framework classes.  For instance, a lot of people use a restlet framework, and / or annotations to manage the dispatching of requests to controller servlets.

My general advice would be:

*

*Don't try to code yet another framework.  There are already lots of them out there, and at least one of them should be good enough.

*Don't over-design.

A: I was in a little bit of a similar situation a few months ago. I had to use java to introduce a group of people to web development, but I honestly wasn't a huge fan of any of the frameworks out there for java. A lot of people get stuck in the mentality that just because JSP's let you do whatever the hell you want in the page, you should.
You can use plain old java/jsp's and still have a well organized project. Here is a link to the project I mentioned. I simply limited each page to ONE function call to a pseudo controller method which returned the model needed for the page. The only other java code on the pages was for templating.
Here is the source for the project, take a look if you want.
