JAKARTA - The state oil and gas company Pertamina has forecast an increase of 9 percent in its oil and gas production target for the next year as compared to its projected target for 2014.
The increase in production will come from the operation of new fields, the optimization of existing fields, and the acquisition of new fields, Pertamina President Director Muhammad Husein stated here on Monday. "We are all prepared to achieve the 2015 target," he emphasized.
Recently, Pertamina acquired a 30 percent stake in Murphy Sabah Oil Co. Ltd. and Murphy Sarawak Oil Co. Ltd., both of which are the subsidiaries of US Murphy Oil Corporation. Husein pointed out that Pertamina will lay greater emphasis on finding oil and gas.
According to the oil and gas production target set for 2025, the acquisition of oil and gas fields will contribute significantly to the production, he noted. He remarked that Pertamina has projected its annual production target to increase by 20 thousand to 30 thousand barrels per day through the acquisition of new oil fields. "These all depend on our financial capability," he added.
Pertamina has set the oil and gas production target for 2014 at around 550 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day comprising 280 thousand barrels of oil and 270 thousand barrels of gas (1,568 million standard cubic feet per day/MMSCFD). Until October, Pertaminas oil and gas production was recorded at 540 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day, which is the highest in Indonesia.
The company saw a 11.9 percent increase in oil and gas production to reach 520,360 barrels of oil equivalent per day in the first half of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. Pertamina has forecast its oil and gas production to increase to 2.2 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2025.


A provincial court judge has ruled that shaking was not the cause of a baby girl's brain injuries, which led to B.C. child authorities seizing the infant and her two older brothers more than three years ago.
Mar. 21, 2011 3:00 p.m.
However, Judge Thomas Crabtree found the "unexplained injuries" while in her parents care justified the B.C. Childrens' Ministry concern for the safety of all three children.
The father had also been suspected earlier when an arm fracture in one of the older children was reported to the ministry. But that investigation ended when the injury was diagnosed a result of the child's premature birth.
Crabtree ruled the family is the "preferred environment" for children, and he gave the former Hope couple six months to satisfy the ministry's safety concerns.
"Children are entitled to be protected from abuse and neglect, and this must be the overriding concern of the court," the judge said, in his March 2 reasons for judgment.
Parents Paul and Zabeth Bayne believe they may have only three more months to wait before all four of their children seized by the ministry are returned them.
A baby born last month was seized by the ministry shortly after birth.
"Three months isn't such a long time to wait," Zabeth Bayne said last week, especially given the three-year fight for custody the couple has been waging in court.
Judge Crabtree found the relationship between the Baynes and the ministry "deteriorated" after the couple talked to the media about their situation, while the two older children were in the care of grandparents.
But he also found some reason for the Baynes mistrust given the "failure of the ministry to live up to the spirit" of an earlier mediation agreement.
The Baynes contended the baby's injuries occurred when an older brother, a toddler at the time, fell on top of her and they bumped heads in August, 2007.
Zabeth took the child to hospital when she noticed a change in the baby's feeding, and doctors there suspected it was a case of "shaken-baby" syndrome and notified the ministry.
At trial, there was conflicting medical evidence about the cause of the injuries, but Crabtree noted the court's job is not to assign blame but to ensure the children are protected, and return them to the family, if possible.
He did not accept the "shaken-baby" diagnosis, but ruled the injuries were "unexplained" so there was some question about parental care.
But he noted that the Baynes had "put their lives and careers on hold" to maintain as much contact as possible with their children while they lived in the foster homes.
Zabeth said the couple has been taking first aid courses and parental counselling to do "all we can to make ourselves better parents," and she looked forward to learning the ministry's concerns.
The ministry has not commented publicly on the case since it went to court, but has told other media that its goal is to return the children to the parents when it is safe to do so.

Can one do dithering while using the Starlock, if so, how? Wondering if it would be possible while using AstroPhotographyTools, BYEOS, PHD, or ??
As far as I can tell right now dithering can not be done at the moment.Someone like Craig Stark would have to get with Meade for the API and driver configuration for PHD to recognize the camera first.
But as of right now there is nothing that will dither using star lock.


Background: The prevalence of multi-drug resistance S. aureus is one of the most challenging tasks for the treatment of nosocomial infections. Proteins and enzymes of peptidoglycan biosynthesis pathway are one among the well-studied targets, but many of the enzymes are unexplored as targets. MurE is one such enzyme featured to be a promising target. As MurE plays an important role in ligating the L-lys to stem peptide at third position that is crucial for peptidoglycan synthesis.
Objective: To screen the potential MurE inhibitor by in silico approach and evaluate the best potential lead molecule by in vitro methods.
Method: In the current study, we have employed structure based virtual screening targeting the active site of MurE, followed by Molecular dynamics and in vitro studies.
Results: Virtual screening resulted in successful screening of potential lead molecule ((2R)-2-[[1-[(2R)- 2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino) propanoyl] piperidine-4-carbonyl]amino]-5-guanidino-pentan). The molecular dynamics of the MurE and Lead molecule complex emphasizes that lead molecule has shown stable interactions with active site residues Asp 406 and with Glu 460. In vitro studies demonstrate that the lead molecule shows antibacterial activity close to standard antibiotic Vancomycin and higher than that of Ampicillin, Streptomycin and Rifampicin. The MIC of lead molecule at 50g/mL was observed to be 3.75 g/mL, MBC being bactericidal with value of 6.25 μg/mL, cytotoxicity showing 34.44% and IC50 of 40.06μg/mL.
Conclusion: These results suggest ((2R)-2-[[1-[(2R)-2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino) propanoyl] piperidine-4-carbonyl]amino]-5-guanidino-pentan) as a promising lead molecule for developing a MurE inhibitor against treatment of S. aureus infections.

The Mongolia men's national under-18 ice hockey team is the men's national under-18 ice hockey team of Mongolia. The team is controlled by the Mongolian Ice Hockey Federation, a member of the International Ice Hockey Federation.

History
The Mongolia men's national under-18 ice hockey team played its first game in 2000 against New Zealand during the 2000 IIHF Asian Oceanic Junior U18 Championship Division II tournament being held in Bangkok, Thailand. Mongolia lost the game 1–5 and finished the tournament in last place. The following year the team finished first in the Division II tournament at the 2001 IIHF Asian Oceanic U18 Championship and were set to gain promotion to Division I but due to a format change both divisions were merged for the 2002 IIHF Asian Oceanic U18 Championship. During the tournament Mongolia achieved their largest victory in international participation when they defeated Thailand 12–1. At the 2002 IIHF Asian Oceanic U18 Championship Mongolia finished fourth after winning two of their five games, beating both Chinese Taipei and Thailand. After a six-year absence from international competition the under-18 team returned to compete in the 2008 IIHF World U18 Championships Division III Group A being held in Mexico City, Mexico. They finished in last place after losing all five of their games. The following year they again finished in last place and also suffered their largest defeat in international competition after losing to Australia 0–33. In 2011 Mongolian under-18 were set to play at their fourth World Championships however the Mongolian Ice Hockey Federation had to withdraw both the under-18 team and the men's senior team from their respective tournaments due to financial reasons.

Zhang, T., & Acs, Z. (2018). Boomer Entrepreneurs: Age and Type. In 2018 Annual Meeting (pp. 1-56). Pittsburgh, PA: American Economic Association.
This study extends the occupational choice model to explore age effects for eight different types of boomer entrepreneurs. The empirical study relies on monthly Current Population Survey data across 11 years (2006-2016). Multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression models are estimated to incorporate individual- and metropolitan-level effects. Among boomer entrepreneurs, we find that novice, opportunity novice, part-time, and unincorporated entrepreneur rates rise at higher ages (55 and above), with a slightly n-shaped age effect for non-novice/switcher (versus novice/switcher), necessity novice (versus opportunity), full-time (versus part-time), and incorporated (versus unincorporated) boomer entrepreneurs. We also identify determinants such as race, health, marital status, education, and work history, with opposite effects for each pair of entrepreneur types, and end by comparing the driving forces for boomer and non-boomer entrepreneurs.

My name is Mrs.Julene Ellefson I am a dying woman who have decided to donate what I have to you/ church. I am 63 years old and I was diagnosed for cancer for about 9 years ago, immediately after the death of my husband, who has left me everything he worked for.
I have been touched by God to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to you for the good work of God, rather than allow my relatives to use my husband hard earned funds ungodly.
Please pray, that the good Lord forgive me my sins. I have asked God to forgive me and beleive he has because He is a merciful God. I will be going in for an operation in less than one hour.
I decided to WILL/donate the sum of &15,500,000 (Fifteen million Five hundred thousand dollars) to you for the good work of the lord, and also to help the motherless and less privilege and also for the assistance of the widows. At the moment I cannot take any telephone calls right now due to the fact that my relatives are around me and my health status.
Below is the information of my lawyer.
Contact him and tell him that I have WILLED. I know I dont know you but I have been directed to do this. Thanks and God bless.


Like this year's health bills, which would have slashed Medicaid while cutting taxes for the wealthy, the GOP tax plan does the most for people with the most. They're not the kind of changes most Americans want.
Americans want corporations to pay more taxes, not less. In a 2015 Pew Center poll, a whopping 82 percent were very or somewhat bothered by the feeling that some corporations don't pay their fair share; 64 percent were very bothered. Americans also disliked the idea that rich people aren't paying their fair share, with 79 percent feeling this way very or somewhat strongly. Only 20 percent thought people with low incomes aren't paying enough in taxes.
In a September 2017 poll, released after Trump put out his tax outline, 65 percent wanted corporations to pay more in taxes and 62 percent opposed tax cuts for the wealthy.
Yet the tax bills unveiled by Congress cut taxes for corporations and people with a lot of money.
The richest Americans, this analysis found, are most likely to get cuts; 80 percent of them with annual income of $500,000 or more would, especially if their money comes from investments rather than a job.
New Yorker Ivanka Trump, who visited Maine last week, would gain a lot from cutting the estate tax, which now affects estates over $5.5 million and hits one-tenth of 1 percent of Maine estates.
Oddly, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said "it's very hard not to give tax cuts to the wealthy." This is not rocket science. Surely a sophisticated investor like Mnunchin, with a net worth of around $500 million could come up something doesn't give huge tax cuts to very rich people.
You also see a complete Republican turnaround in views on debt and deficits. Four years ago, Paul Ryan said "we owe the American people a balanced budget" and claimed the country was headed toward "a debt crisis." Rep. Bruce Poliquin campaigned on paying off the national debt and passing a constitutional amendment requiring balancing the federal budget. But, according to the Congressional Budget Office, the tax plan they support would raise the budget deficit by $1.7 trillion in 10 years.
It's a flip-flop and an absurd idea. It's reasonable for people to take out loans for investments like a mortgage or a business, and governments to do so for infrastructure, medical research, and programs that help people and increase opportunity.
If there's a recession, borrowing for a stimulus plan helps the economy. We're not in a recession but are in the middle of expansion that started in June 2009.
In fact, today corporations have lots of cash on hand and the labor market is tight but companies are not raising wages. In short, there's no reason to believe that tax cuts for the rich would somehow trickle down to typical Americans, as the plan's backers claim. Nor, will the cuts stimulate the economy and, hence, cover the plan's hefty price tag.
At the same time, the budget resolution, which passed with the votes of Poliquin and Sen. Susan Collins, includes massive cuts to programs Americans like, including $1.8 trillion in cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and other health programs. People want more spending on health care, infrastructure, Social Security, medical research and education, not less.
As deficits and debt skyrocket following these tax cuts, another cycle will begin of claiming deficits and debt matter and more cuts to government spending are needed.
Meanwhile, regarding the GOP tax plans, wealthy donors are telling at least one congressman, "Get it done or don't ever call me again." That donor would benefit a lot while everyday Americans get little or even lose. And no one would call that populist.

'Negative' school sex education needs a revamp
Sex and relationship education (SRE) is in need of an overhaul, according to research by the University of Bristol. The wide-ranging study looked at how young people in 10 countries viewed their school-based SRE. It found schools appear reluctant to acknowledge that sex is a potent and potentially embarrassing topic, and attempt to teach it in the same way as other subjects.
The study, published in the BMJ Open, also found students frequently felt vulnerable in SRE lessons, with young women often risking harassment if they participate, and young men anxious to conceal sexual ignorance.
Dr Pandora Pound, from the School of Social and Community Medicine, led the research. She said:
"It is clear from our findings that SRE provision in schools frequently fails to meet the needs of young people. Schools seem to have difficulty accepting some young people are sexually active, which leads to SRE that is out of touch with many young people's lives."
Young people also reported that SRE can be negative, gendered, and heterosexist, and that having it delivered by their own teachers frequently created problems including embarrassment, lack of anonymity and blurred boundaries.
Dr Pound said:
"Despite SRE being a fundamental element of policies designed to safeguard young people and improve their sexual health, it does not have statutory status. In addition, government guidance in the UK is outdated, and nearly a third of UK schools have poor quality SRE.
"There are several steps that need to be taken to address this. SRE should be 'sex-positive' and delivered by specialists who can maintain clear boundaries with students.
"In addition, schools need to acknowledge that SRE is a special subject with unique challenges, as well as the fact and range of young people's sexual activity. Unless they do, young people may disengage from SRE and opportunities for safeguarding and improving their sexual health will be missed."
The research team examined 48 qualitative studies on young people's views of their school-based SRE from the UK, Ireland, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Japan, Iran, Brazil and Sweden. The participants were students aged four to 19 in full-time education, young adults under 19 (not necessarily in full-time education), or adults under 25 if recalling their experiences of school-based SRE.
The study was funded by the NIHR School for Public Health Research.

I am trying to remove the background from the picture of a brain. I've traced around it with the scissors tool, completed the circuit, and now I have the 'marching ants' outline where I've traced. I have no idea how to actually complete the process though.
Intelligent scissors - never very intelligent.
If greyed out, it already has one. If not click that to add. Preferably this is done first but if you already have a selection, do it then.
Now you need to invert the selection. Select -> Invert.
Various ways to fix that. Shrink the original selection a pixel or two before inverting or Use a layer mask and edit out the border or go round with the eraser tool.
Now delete the selection, Edit -> Cut or Edit -> Delete both work. You should get an image with a chequer pattern which denotes transparency.
Edit: Hate this mailing list format.


You may just be starting treatment for your CLL. Or you may need treatment again because the disease has advanced (relapse).
Treatments may vary from patient to patient. And when you've been treated before, remember that your response may not be as good the second time around. Still, it is important to understand what options are available and to discuss your treatment goals with your doctor.

This desktop research provided a brief on mining legislation and policies in Indonesia, before and after the period of national and regional transition. The project aimed to identify current Indonesian regulatory frameworks/policies and analyse their implications for mining, Corporate Social Responsibility and community development and empowerment. In addition, the research was conducted in partnership with Dr Dody Prayogo, the University of Indonesia (LabSosio-UI), and it is expected that this partnership will: foster the development of an entry point for close collaboration between IM4DC and other universities (UQ and UWA); result in the development of a formal university relationship to conduct in-country training and researcher exchange; and other future research projects with the LabSosio-UI.

Q: jquery check items if the parent list item is not hidden I have a "select all" checkbox. I want to iterate for each checkbox that contains the class cb-org and set the checked property but only if the parent list item element does not have the class hidden applied to it.
The reason for this is because I have a client-side filter so not all list items are visible and I don't want my "select all" to set the checked property for items that are currently hidden.

$('#organisations-selectall').change(function() {
  $('.cb-org').each(function (i, obj) {
    if (!$(obj).parent('li').hasClass('hidden')) {
      $(obj).prop('checked', this.checked);
    }
  });
});

      Filter
     <input id="org-filter" type="text" class="form-control">

        <input id="organisations-selectall" type="checkbox">
        Select All

        <input type="checkbox" class="cb-org">
        Org 1

        <input type="checkbox" class="cb-org">
        Org 2

        <input type="checkbox" class="cb-org">
        Org 3

A: You can utilized jQuery's inherient looping so you do not have to write it yourself.

*

*Find all the checkbox

*Get their parent li, no matter how high up the DOM Tree it is

*Filter the li to get only those without the hidden class

*For the filtered li, find their nested checkbox

*Change their checked property

$('#organisations-selectall').change(function(e) {
  $('.cb-org')
    .closest('li')
    .filter(':not(.hidden)')
    .find('.cb-org')
    .prop('checked', this.checked);
});
.hidden { color: red }

      Filter
     <input id="org-filter" type="text" class="form-control">

HC Suspends Rajpal Yadav's Sentence
IndiatimesUpdated on Dec 10, 2013, 16:29 IST
Bollywood actor Rajpal Yadav today got temporary relief from the Delhi High Court which suspended his sentence following his appeal against its single judge's order sending him to 10 days in jail for misleading the court in a recovery suit filed against him and his wife by a businessman.
42-year-old Yadav had spent three days in jail from December 3 and on December 6, the single judge of the high court had suspended his sentence and granted him time till today to file his statutory appeal.
A bench of Justices B D Ahmed and Vibhu Bakhru issued notice to Delhi-based company Murli Projects and sought its reply by January 22, 2014 while hearing Yadav's appeal against the single judge's December 3 order.
It said, "In the meantime, the sentence will remain suspended till its further order." The court also relaxed a condition in which the single judge had directed Yadav not to leave Delhi or the country without its permission.
The bench accepted the submission of Yadav's counsel that the actor has surrendered his passport to the Registrar General (RG) of the Delhi High Court and the condition that he will not leave Delhi or India will not serve any purpose as he has to shoot for his projects.
"Appellant (Yadav) can complete his projects within India. However, he will not travel outside the country," the bench said. The court also recorded an undertaking from Yadav that within a week he would give a cheque of Rs 20 lakh to Murli Projects.
The single judge bench, which was hearing the recovery suit, had taken exception to the affidavit filed by Yadav on December 2, which was allegedly falsely prepared and contained forged signatures of his wife.
