As regular readers of these Alerts know, when the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) was passed in January 2011, it required the FDA to adopt several sets of regulations, including one on the accreditation of third-party auditors of compliance with food safety regulations. The statute set an 18-month deadline for the regulations, which the FDA missed. Consumer groups have sued FDA to force it to issue the regulations, and a federal district court in San Francisco recently ordered the FDA to complete the regulations by June 2015. Last Friday, the FDA issued proposed regulations for both the accreditation of third party auditors and the foreign supplier verification program (FSVP). With these proposals, the FDA has now issued proposed rules for four of the seven required subjects.
According to the highlights section of the FDA's announcement, the proposed rule for third-party auditors sets eligibility requirements for recognition as an accreditation body. An accreditation body can be a foreign government/agency or a private third-party. It must also meet standards for legal authority, competency and capacity, impartiality/objectivity, quality assurance, and records procedures.
The proposed rule also sets eligibility requirements for accreditation as a third-party auditor. A third-party auditor can be a foreign government, foreign cooperative, or other third-party. It must also meet standards for legal authority, competency and capacity, impartiality/objectivity, quality assurance, and records procedures.
The FDA would closely monitor these systems and could revoke an accreditation body's recognition or withdraw an auditor's accreditation for good cause.
The FDA will use certifications issued by accredited third-party auditors for two purposes under FSMA. First, section 302 of FSMA authorizes the FDA to create the Voluntary Qualified Importer Program (VQIP), which provides for expedited review and entry of food into the United States. To participate in VQIP, importers must import food from certified facilities.
Second, section 303 of FSMA gives the FDA authority to require certification under section 801(q) of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as a condition of entry for certain foods that FDA has determined pose a food safety risk. Such certifications may be provided by an accredited third-party auditor.
Although the Foreign Supplier Verification Programs (FSVP) proposal does not require the use of accredited third-party auditors, the FDA anticipates that once the FDA accreditation system is in place, importers may increasingly rely on audits by accredited third parties to meet their supplier verification requirements under FSVP.
Separate from this proposed rule, the FDA will issue draft model accreditation standards that would specify what qualifications a certification body must have to qualify for accreditation, such as the minimum requirements for education and experience for third-party auditors and their audit agents. The FDA will issue the Model Accreditation Standards in draft and open a docket to accept comments.
The FDA intends to implement the accreditation and third-party auditor programs as soon as possible after publication of the final rule and the final Model Accreditation Standards. Accreditation bodies could begin to apply for recognition when the program goes into effect, and third-party auditors could seek accreditation after one or more FDA-recognized accreditation bodies begin accepting applications.

Ubele goes to Manchester and the North East by Yvonne Witter
My involvement with The Ubele Initiative has remained constant as an organisation close to my heart since its inception. It is somewhat like being close to a pregnant mother and having a relationship with her child when it is born. To witness that metaphorical child, mature into the nucleus of the superb organisation that the CEO Yvonne Field and her team, has run for nearly a decade doing incredible work, is indeed a magical thing.
I was pleased to be able to lead on a Northern initiative to introduce Ubele and its work to people who were unfamiliar with this organisation and its ethos of intergenerational work, leadership, capacity building and so much more. The BAME community in Manchester were introduced to each other and Ubele via online technology during the Covid crisis. Through an exchange of information at structured meetings, I was able to learn about the challenges and difficulties that were being faced in Manchester as organisations struggled to stay afloat and support their vulnerable clients during this time. I was privileged to meet some very dedicated community workers and network leaders, who were committed to serving their communities in the best way possible. These workers were sometimes tired, and they were frustrated, but they were also very motivated to continue to assist those in need in the best way that they could under very trying circumstances.
Our meetings formed the basis of networking which is also an informal way of learning, and the exchange provided a wealth of information, and knowledge, as everyone had something to share which was of benefit to someone else. It was also interesting that participants living within Manchester exchanged beneficial information of which they were previously unaware. I was pleased, encouraged, and stimulated by the majority of participants. They welcomed the opportunity to connect with the wider Ubele family by accessing and acting on the requests for research data and using the information provided in the newsletter, and joining the many Themed Conversations / Events hosted by the Ubele Initiative during this period.
What saddened me though is the extent to which many BAME workers are being marginalised and under-resourced within their areas of work, operating with weak infrastructure and labouring under a knowledge gap. A great deal of support and training is required to build some of the organisations that are currently doing great work, into sustainable operations.
Yvonne Witter
The COVID crisis at its height has instilled fear in BAME communities, due to published reports of the disproportionate number deaths; and as yet, we still do not know why those deaths are disproportionate. People who were ill at home refuse hospital for treatment. There are people who died from COVID and could not be buried in a culturally specific way. This compounded the distress within the community, and many workers in these areas are now deeply concerned about how they will cope with the mental health fallout, from all of this, which they feel is certain to follow as a result. As alluded to above people have not been able to grieve properly for their loved ones or be with their loved ones as they approach death at the end of their lives. Some families have even lost multiple members.
There were a small number of people who were able to use this experience positively. But alas there are so many others who still cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel.
This short intervention has created an opportunity for greater visibility of some of the most marginalised groups operating in the north. A presence on the Ubele website, a page for people to talk to, for people to share in images and words and sound, their work in these regions the opportunity to continue to meet others with whom they can which would be the first stage of building partnerships.

The ever-changing world of life sciences can make maintaining an engaged, happy and productive workforce challenging. This makes the need to create a culture that promotes employee engagement and interaction, and to maintain that culture effectively during periods of rapid growth or transition imperative.
This session will highlight strategies that can be implemented in order to have a workforce culture that is agile and strong enough to withstand change, how to seamlessly integrate new employees into the culture, and keep employees productive and efficient with the ebbs and flows that come with perma-change.

We show that the recently suggested explanations of cosmic acceleration by the modification of gravity at small curvature suffer violent instabilities and strongly disagree with the known properties of gravitational interactions.
Can modified gravity explain accelerated cosmic expansion?

It seems established that at the present epoch the universe expands with acceleration. It follows directly from the observation of high red-shift supernovae [2] and indirectly from the measurements of angular fluctuations of cosmic microwave background fluctuations (CMBR) [3] . The latter shows that the total mass/energy density of the universe is very close to the critical one (Ω=1), while the observations of the universe large scale structure indicate that normal gravitating (but invisible) matter can contribute only 30% into the total one. Thus one concludes that the remaining 70% is some mysterious agent that creates the cosmological acceleration. The simplest suggestion is that the source of this acceleration is the vacuum energy (cosmological constant). However such an explanation immediately meets two serious problems. First, vacuum energy remains constant in the course of cosmic expansion (modulo possible phase transitions which could discontinuously change the value of ρvac by a very large amount). On the other hand, "normal" cosmological energy density scales with time as ρm∼m2Pl/t2 and it is quite strange coincidence that ρvac and ρm are of the same order of magnitude just today. Second and much more serious, there are known contributions into vacuum energy which are 50-100 orders of magnitude larger than the cosmologically allowed value. At the present day there is no workable scenario to solve the second problem, while the first one may be solved if instead of a constant ρvac a new massless or very light field is introduced which evolves in the course of the expansion in such a way that its energy density today more or less naturally approaches the energy density of normal matter [4] .
Still such field remains mysterious. It would be in much better shape if it simultaneously solved the problem of almost complete elimination of gigantic contributions into vacuum energy by some adjustment mechanism but, alas, it does not happen or, better to say, it is unknown how it can be realized. To avoid an introduction of additional fields (plurality should not be posited without necessity", W. Ockham) it was suggested recently that gravity itself, if properly modified, could create cosmological acceleration [5] . To this end the model with the following action was considered:
A=∫d4x√−g[f(R)+LM], (1)
where R is the scalar curvature and LM is the matter Lagrangian. In the usual Einstein gravity the function f(R) has the form f(R)=Rm2Pl/16π where mPl is the Planck mass (≃1019GeV). In ref. [5] a power law modification f(R)∼Rn with n=−1,3/2 was considered.
A detailed examination of the n=−1 case was performed in the recent paper [6] . The action was taken in the form:
A=m2Pl16π∫d4x√−g(R−μ4R)−∫d4x√−gLM, (2)
and the corresponding equation of motion reads:
(1+μ4R2)Rαβ−12(1−μ4R2)Rgαβ+μ4gαβ∇ν∇ν(1R2)−μ4∇(α∇β)(1R2)=8πTMαβm2Pl, (3)
where TMμν is the matter energy-momentum tensor. As argued in ref. [6] , with the parameter μ chosen of the order of the inverse universe age, μ−1∼1018sec∼(10−33eV)−1, this equation, applied to cosmology, describes the universe acceleration in the present epoch, while the additional terms were not essential at earlier times.
However an addition of non-linear in curvature terms into the action integral is not an innocent step. It gives rise to higher order equations of motion which possess quite unpleasant pathological behavior. They may break unitarity and lead to ghosts or tachyons. And if breaking of the usual gravity at high curvatures may be tolerated - who knows what happens there - but breaking of gravity at low curvature in weak field regime immediately leads to contradiction with well established facts. To demonstrate that let us consider equation of motion for curvature scalar. It can be obtained from eq. (3) by taking trace over α and β:
D2R−3(DαR)(DαR)R+R46μ4−R22=−TR36μ4, (4)
where D is the covariant derivative and T=8πTνν/m2Pl>0.
Let us apply this equation for the gravitational field of a normal celestial body, as e.g. the Earth or the Sun or any other smaller gravitating object with weak gravity. In this case the metric can be approximately taken as a flat one, so D2=∂2t−Δ and (DαR)(DαR)=(∂tR)2−(∂jR)2. We will look for a perturbative solution inside some spatially finite matter distribution. In the lowest order the curvature is algebraically expressed through the trace of the energy-momentum tensor of matter, R0=−T. This is the standard result of General Relativity (GR). Outside matter the solution is R0=0 but now this is not exact but true only in the lowest order approximation. One can check both numerically and analytically that stationary solution outside matter sphere is very quickly vanishing if μ4>0. So at least in this case the curvature scalar behaves similarly to the usual one. This is in agreement with the analysis of stationary solutions of ref. [7] where it is argued that the modified gravity theories agree with the Newtonian limit of the standard gravity for sufficiently small μ.111In Ref. [7] , however, it was found that the condition for the correct Newtonian limit is very marginally satisfied for the simple 1/R gravity. Thus, it may be likely that the deviation from the Newtonian gravity is observed even in vacuum solutions.
However for negative μ4 the solution is rising outside the matter sphere and strongly deviates from the standard General Relativity. Even for μ4>0, the curvature scalar, R, outside the source would be non-vanishing and proportional to the curvature on the boundary of the gravitating body but, as we mentioned above, it tends to zero at very small distances from the boundary.
Let us consider now the internal solution with time dependent matter density. The first order correction to the curvature, R=−T+R1 satisfies the equation:
¨R1 − ΔR1−6˙TT˙R1+6∂jTT∂jR1+R1⎡⎣T+3˙T2−(∂jT)2T2−T36μ4⎤⎦
= D2T+T22−3DαTDαTT,
where the deviation of the metric from the Minkowski one may be accounted for in the r.h.s. by the covariant derivatives (but this is not essential for our conclusion).
The last term in the l.h.s. has a huge coefficient:
T3/6μ4∼(10−26k2sec)−2(ρmg cm−3)3, (6)
where ρm is the mass density of the gravitating body, the constant k is assumed to be of the order of unity, μ=k/tu and tu≈3⋅1017 sec is the cosmological time scale. This coefficient is much larger than T since
T∼(103sec)−2(ρmg cm−3). (7)
Thus, the T3/6μ4 dominates the coefficient in front of R1 term in Eq. (S0.Ex1) and leads to strong instability. (Notice that −T3/6μ4<0.) The characteristic time of the instability rise is about 10−26 sec. Perturbation with the wave length larger than one tenth of the proton Compton wave length should be unstable. This result shows that the curvature inside matter sphere should quickly rise and reach very high values (strong gravity) till some non-perturbative effects would terminate this rise. This is the same kind of instability that leads to the universe acceleration but now it is very unfavorable for the model and forbids such a modification of gravity.
It was argued in a recent work [8] that the considered above modification of gravity follows from certain compactification schemes of string/M-theory. If so, such theories must be excluded because of the instability found in the present paper.
The analysis performed above is valid for a particular case of 1/R terms in the action integral. A more general Lagrangian with arbitrary powers of R, both negative and positive, is presented in the recent work [9] . We have not made complete analysis of all possible cases discussed in the literature but it seems suggestive that all modifications of gravity at small curvature described by higher order differential equations may suffer from serious instability problems.
There are other earlier works on modifications of gravity [10] - [14] which might lead to accelerated cosmological expansion. However it is impossible to apply the similar analysis to some of them because the theory is not sufficiently specified - only a modification of the Friedmann equations is suggested but no modified action which would allow to derive equations in general case was presented [10] - [12] . Another group of works is based on modification of gravity due to higher dimensions [13] - [14] . Probably these models do not manifest instability discussed here, though only cosmological solutions have been considered in the quoted papers. In ref. [15] it is argued that modification of gravity at large scales to induce cosmic acceleration can lead to a modification of gravitational interactions at smaller scales but since the authors did not specify their model it is hard to make any definitive conclusions.
To summarize, we have shown that an attempt to explain the observed cosmic acceleration by the concrete modification of gravitational action adding to the latter the term ∼1/R is unacceptable because such term would lead to a strong temporal instability resulting in a dramatic change of gravitational fields of any gravitating bodies. We cannot make any conclusion about some other versions of the modified gravity theory which could lead to cosmic acceleration because the latter are not sufficiently well defined to permit such an analysis.

Q: Pagenumbers / Headers with vertical lines style I'm just writing my thesis and this board has proven very very helpful with a lot of issues I've had with Latex, thank you :)
I'm almost done now and would like to make my thesis visually appealing. I specifically want my numbers to have a vertical line in front of them (hard to describe) - very much likes this | 21
I added some pictures (sorry they are the wrong way around) This pictures originates from this page: http://www.kfiles.de/latex.php#Seitenlayout, which actually has code on it, but it doesn't work for me as I have never used hboxes or anything and it seems to require a lot of adjustement :(
I'm using the scrreport class and only need my pagenumbering to be on the right site of the page, same goes for the header.
Hope somebody can help, it would make me really happy if I could actually get this style into my thesis :)
Thanks in advance!

A: Here is a suggestion based on the goLaTeX solution by Noch so einer (see Seitenzahlen/Kapitel mit Vertikalen Linien). But the following example works for twosided documents too and there is no vertical rule in the header if a chapter or section is unnumbered.

The World Ag Expo is high on hemp. Is the crop ready for the limelight?
Joshua Yeager
Hemp blocks, hemp bags, hemp sculptures, green buckets full of hemp calendars, hemp tents, hemp soaps, hemp oil; hemp pavilion, hemp cabins, hemp insulation, hemp grains ... hemp, hemp, hemp!
The 2020 World Ag Expo is high on the newly-legal crop, with no shortage of converts preaching the hemp gospel to the annual show's 100,000-plus attendees.
"It's not every day that agriculture gets a new plant to grow. This will never happen again in our lifetimes," said Christian Gray with HiLo Seed Company, one of the expo's partners around hemp this year.
"It's not like the government is going to allow farmers to start growing poppies (a precursor to opium and heroin)," he added. "Hemp is probably the only crop that will come out of prohibition."
HiLo is a cheeky reference to the game hemp growers must play if they want to turn a profit and avoid the wrath of law enforcement and ag commissioners' offices.
Current regulations limit THC — the high-inducing compound found within both hemp and cannabis (genetically they are the same plant) — to less than 0.3% in industrial hemp. Any higher and the state can seize or destroy the crop.
At the same time, CBD is one of many compounds that can be refined from hemp into an oil that has found much success in wellness circles as a trendy health product.
Hence, HiLo — high CBD, low THC — the goldilocks zone that every hemp grower, especially in California, wants to occupy.
There are more than 500,000 acres of hemp licensed to some 17,000 growers nationally, a 460% increase over 2018, according to the advocacy group Vote Hemp.
Last year, the organization had the expo's only hemp booth. This year, there are more than 30 booths occupying an entire corner of the 2.6 million-square-foot exhibition space.
"It's representative of the industry's growth and a testament to traditional agriculture's interest in hemp as a commodity crop," said Jea Johnson, Vote Hemp's California Outreach Director.
Despite that growth, Johnson urges growers to exercise caution with hemp until "the industry stabilizes."
"Don't go all-in with hemp, unless you have a contract or the ability to lose everything you've invested in planting," she said. "Big grower losses cast a shadow over hemp last year."
A tale of two counties
Imperial County in the California desert has rolled out the hemp welcome mat, offering low-interest loans and other incentives to draw hemp growers and processors to the region.
"The Imperial Valley is very hemp positive. We have ample farmland and plenty of water," said Rachel Garewal, the county's deputy ag commissioner. "We see it as a way to create jobs and economic opportunities for our region, which has the state's highest unemployment rate."
Tulare County has been slower to the hemp train. The commodity remains banned in the county but that could soon change.
The Tulare County Ag Commissioner's Office is in the process of drafting a hemp ordinance to put before county supervisors. If approved, it would lift the moratorium that has banned hemp production in the county since 2018.
Officials with the office chuckled at the irony that while hemp remains banned in Tulare County, it's blossoming at this year's expo.
"The ag show isn't Tulare County, the ag show is the world," said Deputy Ag Commissioner David Case.
The California Department of Food and Agriculture is required to submit its hemp regulations for federal approval by the end of the year under state law. Once those rules are in place, farm groups expect hemp to grow even bigger across the state — assuming processing plants can keep pace.
"We're optimistic about the future of hemp. It's another crop, another tool in the toolbox," said Andrew Genasci with the California Farm Bureau Federation. "Right now we're in the education phase. Farmers, the public and industry are still trying to wrap their arms around hemp."
Got Hemp?
The CBD craze has monopolized the conversation around hemp in California so far, but industry leaders say the commodity won't mature until manufacturing and processing plants catch up to the plant.
"It's not just cannabinoids (or CBD), we need to look to hemp fiber and grain as well," Gray said. He sees marketing associations as the key to removing the stigma around hemp and getting the word out. "Hemp needs its own 'Got Milk?' campaign."
Historically, hemp was sought after for its tough, resilient fibers. Hemp textiles even played a role in the founding of the United States: The Mayflower's sails were woven from hemp fabric.
Some four centuries later, many Americans are returning to hemp as an ideal building material because of its hardiness and environmental friendliness.
In hemp, builders see a material that is stronger than wood, more fire-resistant and carbon negative, meaning that hemp plants clean the air more than growing and processing them pollutes.
"I think it will eventually be illegal not to build with hemp," said Dion Markgraaff, head of the U.S. Hemp Building Association.
It's a bold claim, but Markgraaff feels confident that his outlook is supported by California's own stated goals. He notes that 40% of all emissions and 50% of all landfill is related to construction.
A traditional 1,200 square-foot home can be built from just 2.5 acres of hemp, he added.
"As a builder, I'm very interested in hemp. It's sustainable, zero-waste and fire-resistant," said Chad Sanden, who owns a construction firm in Monterey County. "What more could you want in California?"

Through a wide ranging, imaginative and constantly evolving curriculum, the school offers students the opportunity to study a range of interesting subjects to meet their individual needs. At the same time, staff are offered the opportunity to teach subjects that both engage their interests and challenge them intellectually.
Moving to a House system has enabled us to develop a number of leadership opportunities for both students and staff. Students now work closely with others from a range of year groups, giving them skills for life and a chance to be involved in peer mentoring for example. We are a strong community and vertical tutoring has brought us even closer together.
We are continuously seeking to create opportunities for staff to develop; whether it be through taking on trips and visits such as the World Challenge or Duke of Edinburgh Award, or through our innovative Leadership Programme that staff can choose to follow. We value our staff tremendously and are always looking to build upon their skills and experiences. At West Hatch we believe in lifelong learning and the development of both staff and students are of equal importance.
As a school we are committed to Initial Teacher Training and supporting the future leaders of our education system. A large number of our trainees have gone on to secure teaching positions at the school and we are proud of the work we do in preparing them for their future careers. All trainees follow the same detailed support package that our NQT's follow, with weekly induction sessions and time with their mentors.
Thank you for the interest you have shown in West Hatch.

The first part of March has a stabilizing quality that makes it an ideal time to solidify your plans before you set them into motion. Although several aspects to pragmatic Saturn in resourceful Scorpio focus your attention on serious matters, you're also feeling restless with six planets in your 5th House of Fun until March 12, when action-planet Mars leads the planetary parade into your 6th House of Work.
You turn a creative idea into a real project when the Sun, valuable Venus and clever Mercury trine Saturn and sextile Pluto on March 1, 6 and 7, respectively. Heavyweight Saturn sextiles insightful Pluto in your 3rd House of Communication on March 8, deepening your convictions and providing you with the skills to get your ideas across in a simple and straightforward manner.
The fanciful Pisces New Moon on March 11 falls in your 5th House of Self-Expression, unleashing your playful and romantic spirit and planting a seed of joy in your heart. Even as you push into new territory, however, you continue to review recent experiences, rework your strategies and reconsider your options.
Thankfully, forward progress is just around the corner when messenger Mercury turns direct on March 17, ending its three-week retrograde cycle that began February 23. The Sun's entry into impetuous Aries and your 6th House of Details on March 20 marks the Spring Equinox, and is another reminder that this is a time for new beginnings.
Nevertheless, you must temper your eagerness with reason as overconfident Jupiter forms crunchy quincunxes with Saturn and Pluto on March 23 and March 29, encouraging you to use extreme measures to get what you want.
Problems happen even when things are looking good. Don't get discouraged; just be prepared to handle issues as they surface with a healthy sense of humor.
You reconnect with your deepest desires when magnetic Venus in your 5th House of Love and Creativity sextiles dark Pluto and unequivocal Saturn on March 6. Loquacious Mercury joins Venus later in the day, enabling you to turn on the charm so you can approach a difficult subject without putting someone off. On March 7, Mercury takes its turn to aspect Pluto and Saturn, giving you an irrefutable air of authority. Others are intently tuned in to what you might say because they believe that you know what you're talking about. Fortunately, a Saturn-Pluto sextile on March 8 intensifies your perspective and sharpens your understanding of what's happening. Don't be afraid to speak your piece while people are listening.
You may be very busy now, making it difficult to keep up with all of your obligations. An anxious aspect between expressive Mars and constrictive Saturn on March 25 heightens your frustration -- you don't know whether to push harder or quietly retreat. Intense emotions could burst into conflict when Mars squares domineering Pluto on March 26. Try a new strategy to restore balance at work on March 27, when the objective Libra Full Moon in your karmic 12th House of Spirituality opposes agreeable Venus and rebellious Uranus.

There's been a bit of a kerfuffle with Cyanogen, Inc. today: conflicting interests in the Indian market mean that its relationship with OnePlus is probably over. But the development of the community-based ROM continues, and owners of the Verizon variant of the LG G3 can see for themselves tonight. The phone now has a nightly build of CyanogenMod 11 (Android 4.4) of its very own, and more are sure to follow soon.
The Verizon version of the G3 (model number vs985) is the first one to get CyanogenMod, made possible by the Bump! bootloader unlock tool and a stable version of the TWRP recovery. The various carrier and international models should follow at some point; CyanogenMod development usually relies on one of the team members owning or having access to the device, so it's probably pure chance that the Verizon version got the ROM before others. In the meantime you can check XDA and other user forums - there are already some AOSP and open-source CM builds floating around, including some Lollipop versions.
Frequent ROM flashers, you know the drill: the initial nightly ROM is bound to have some problems, so avoid it if you're bothered by a potentially less-than-stable system. The Verizon G3 should be included in the monthly M builds, if not next month then sometime soon after. If you've got your custom recovery ready to go, hit the source link for the download, and click here for a flashable Gapps ZIP for access to the Play Store and Google services.

The Big WHY
Our Response And Approach
CSI Inovation Management
Community Development focuses on
the three key elements of
Primary Healthcare
Quality and Affordable Healthcare is Fundamental Human and Citizenship Rights.
WE RESTORE! EQUIP! SUSTAIN!
We help to improve access to sustainable medical support in identified communities. We rebuild and equip dilapidated and under-equipped Primary Health Centers (PHCs) in local, underserved and unreached communities, and build new standard PHCs and health clinics where there are none, using the national policy for "Minimum standards for Primary Healthcare in Nigeria" and the global best guidelines for the provision of quality primary healthcare.
Quality Basic Education is the bedrock of Sustainable Development and Civilization.)
Majority of the over 10 million out of school children are of poor families and of local, underserved and unreached communities in Nigeria. At this rate, by 2045, Nigeria will have more than 50 million out of school children, which will represent a globally disaster at that time.
WE INSPIRE. ReINCORPORATE. SUSTAIN!
Through initiatives such as "We Love Education", "Education is all I Need", "Education is my Power", "Education Pays Best", etc., we help to reinvigorate the interest of out of school children, to see education as the best alternative for their present and future, and retain in-school kids to continue and complete their basic education. We incorporate "Digital and Talent Based Education", connecting the students to present day technological advancements in class, and prepare them better and equipped for their future.
Our strategies takes into cognizance the varying peculiarities of each child, their families, economic and social classes, in providing incentivized learning support that spurs and retain their motivation to get education, and lead the advocacy for a restructured policy for basic education, with relevant curriculum designs, and a multi-stakeholder policy execution strategy for sustainable impact.
Empowering local families and communities using local resources and economic potentials
We help facilitate the process that drive the sustainable growth of local means of livelihood, by creating channels through which underserved can access the strategic resources and support they need to improve their livelihoods, get improved access to market support and financing, as well as helping create access to strategic networks for sustainability and for access to wider opportunities for economic prosperity.
Need Based Projects
"Switch It ON!"
Is a rural electrification intervention that is designed to connect off-grid communities to electricity supply through sustainable renewable energy sources or to an existing grid to power local communities, schools, health centers, and ventures. This program is majorly targeted at island communities with decades of darkness. It is completely a partner led initiative and in consonance with the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) policy framework to provide electricity supply to rural communities.
Water4Life aims to improve access to clean drinking water in local, underserved and unreached communities, through new and existing technological resource for sustainable water supply/recycling.
"Project Earth"
Project Earth is an environmental advocacy initiative that is targeted at promoting healthy approaches to solid waste management in local, underserved and unreached communities in Nigeria through innovative recycling concepts.

Tsuneoka Bunki (; geboren 13. November 1898 in Kaibara, Kreis Hikami (heute Stadt Tamba), Provinz Tamba/Präfektur Hyōgo; gestorben 29. November 1979) war ein japanischer Maler der Nihonga-Richtung.

Leben und Werk
Tsuneoka Bunki wollte Maler werden und ging 1916 nach Tokio. Dort erhielt er seinen ersten Unterricht von Okada Shūrei (岡田 秋嶺 1876–1941), Koizumi Katsuji (小泉 勝爾; 1883–1945) und anderen. 1917 begann er ein Studium der Malerei im "japanischen Stil" (Nihonga) an der "Tōkyō bijutsu gakkō" (東京美術学校), einer der Vorläufereinrichtungen der heutigen Universität der Künste Tokio. Bereits während seines Studiums konnte er ein Bild auf der 1. Ausstellung der "Chūō bijutsu-ten" (中央美術展) zeigen. Nach seinem Studienabschluss 1922 bildete er sich unter Yūki Somei weiter, wo er mit seinem Können unter seinen Mitstudenten auffiel.

1928 wurde Tsuneoka Assistenzprofessor an seiner Alma Mater. Er stellte gelegentlich auf der staatliche Ausstellungsreihe "Teiten" aus. Das Bild "Keitōka" (鶏頭花) – Hanenkamm-Blume, das er auf der 10. "Teiten" 1929 zeigte, und das Bild "Shūro" (棕櫚) – "Hanfpalmen", das er 1933 auf der 14. zeigte, wurden mit Preisen ausgezeichnet. Bereits 1931 war er auf der "Ausstellung japanische Malerei" in Berlin zu sehen.

Als 1935 die staatliche Ausstellungsreihe neu geordnet wurde, stellte Tsuneoka nicht auf der nun "Shin-Bunten" genannten Reihe aus, sondern auch bei der "Kyūkōkai" (九皐会), auf der "Inten" und an anderen Stellen aus. Er war auch auf japanischen Ausstellungen in Paris und Bangkok zu sehen. Er wirkte bei der Neuordnung des Nihon Bijutsuin mit, 1942 wurde er Mitglied. Während des Pazifikkriegs zog er sich in seine Heimat zurück, war aber 1954 wieder in Tokio. Er stellte im Großkaufhaus Takashima aus, auch auf der "Nitten", bzw. deren Nachfolger "Shin-Nitten".

Tsuneoka malte "Blumen-Vögel-Bilder" (花鳥画, Kachōga), wobei er dem Nihonga-Stil westlichen Realismus hinzufügte. Weitere Bilder sind "Saien shoka" (菜園初夏) – "Frühsommer im Gemüsegarten", "Kanna" (カンナ) – "Blumenrohr", "Niwa no kigi" (庭の木々) – "Bäume im Garten".

Prime Minister Samdech Akka Moha Sena Padei Techo Hun Sen has called for more Japanese investment in Cambodia.
Japan is the biggest donor country in Cambodia and big Japanese companies such as Mitsubishi, Merubeni, etc. have been present in the country, said Samdech Techo Hun Sen during a meeting with a delegation of Nippon Keidaren of Japan.
Anyway, the number of Japanese investors in Cambodia is still limited, said the Cambodian premier, thus appealing all Japanese companies that wish to invest in Cambodia to come and examine the investment possibilities in the country.
The private investment from Japan will help promote Cambodia's development and its integration into ASEAN, he stressed.
For his part, Kenjiro Fukubayashi, head of the Japanese delegation, told Samdech Techo Hun Sen that the purpose of the visit of his delegation, which comprises of CEOs of different companies, members of the Japan Business Federation, is to learn more about trade, economic situation and investment atmosphere in Cambodia with an aim to further expand the trade relations and promote development of economic corridors as well as the whole regional economy.

Liverpool have referred footage of Mo Salah apparently using his mobile phone while driving to police.
A video posted online alleged to show the Reds star scrolling through his phone sitting in traffic as a number of people, including children, gathered near his car before he drove off.
The incident occurred after Liverpool had begun their Premier League campaign with a 4-0 victory over West Ham at Anfield, with Salah among the scorers.


The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard is a standard your business must meet if it processes credit card details. This includes online credit card transactions processed through an eCommerce website. The standard was put in place by the credit card companies to reduce credit card fraud.
The PCI DSS has 12 requirements within 6 categories. In reality, the number of requirements are much higher than this, as each of the 12 requirements have several sub-requirements.
Complying with the PCI DSS can be a huge cost for businesses. Thankfully you can sidestep most of the requirements by using a Tier 1 PCI DSS compliant payment gateway. Most of the PCI DSS requirements are related to storing credit card data. By using these payment gateways, credit card numbers are never actually stored anywhere on your business systems and most PCI DSS requirements become irrelevant to your business. PCI DSS compliance becomes a self-assessment questionnaire.
One advantage to being deemed PCI DSS compliant, is that you can mention it on your website to increase trust with your customers. If you use a payment gateway you can request a certificate of compliance from them for this purpose.
You can read more about PCI DSS at this Australia Post Business Lounge article and the Wikipedia PCI DSS article.

Лі́нія Арпа́да — оборонна лінія, що створювалася угорськими військами в Східних Карпатах у 1939 — 1944 роках проти Червоної Армії і простяглася майже на 600 кілометрів. Лінія Арпада не була суцільною і складалася з окремих вузлів оборони. Крайні елементи: перевал Дукля на заході та Яблуницький перевал на сході. Завданням було побудувати ефективну лінію оборони з мінімальними затратами в найкоротші терміни.

Оборону на лінії Арпада у рамках Східно-Карпатської військової операції вела армійська група генерал Гейнріці в складі німецької 1-ї танкової армії та 13-ї піхотної дивізії 1-ї угорської армії котрим протистояли війська Першого та Четвертого Українських фронтів. На оборонній лінії тільки в межах Четвертого Українського фронту було побудовано 99 опорних пунктів, 759 ДОТів, 394 ДЗОТи, 439 відкритих вогневих рубежів, 400 км траншей і стрілецьких окопів, 135 км протитанкових споруд.

Українська ділянка
 Керешмезький напрямок. В Керешмезі (стара назва селища Ясіня) на площі в декілька десятків квадратних кілометрів розмістилося 50 ДОТів, велика кількість одномісних бетонних стрілецьких позицій, протитанкових надовбів, дротяних загороджень. Радянські війська змогли оволодіти даним укріпленим районом 28 вересня 1944 року в ході Східнокарпатської військової операції, скориставшись обхідним маневром через Свидовецький хребет. Оборонці втративши до двох третин особового складу були змушені відступити з займаних позицій.
 Ужоцький перевал. Перед Ужоцьким перевалом також було створено потужний вузол оборони. На схилах гір було вирито багато окопів, які підсилено 30 ДОТами і 60 ДЗОТами.
 Мукачівський напрямок. Не менш укріпленим вважався і мукачівський напрямок. Укріплення складалися з двох потужних вузлів оборони польового типу на перевалах і шести вузлів довгострокової оборони котрі «закривали» долину річки Латориця. Традиційні багаторядні протитанкові надовби, мінні поля, лісові завали. 37 ДЗОТів і 95 ДОТів.
 Хустський напрямок. На хустському напрямку, до котрого відносится укріпрайон на околиці села Синевир, було розміщено 5 вузлів оборони за перевалами, і вузлом оборони польового типу по державному кордоні. «Закривалися» долини річок Теребля і Ріка. Від села Майдан до перевалу долина була перекрита одинадцятьма рядами протитанкових надовбів, 40 ДОТами і 15 ДЗОТами.

5. Schritt Let the Fix Begin!
Good guide, I love your teardowns. But for reassembling: Don't make the same mistake I did. When putting the motherboard *back* against the display, be SURE to fit the buttons into their holes FIRST. I forgot about them, and broke my volume-down button clean off, and damaged my volume-up button, before I realized they weren't fitting. It just seemed to me I didn't have the motherboard aligned right. The buttons are *very* fragile.
Did anybody have an issue with the screw next to the camera? I couldn't get it out because the T4 didn't fit, and the T3 is to small. I ended up stripping it after i tried to shave the T4 down enough to fit into it. I still cant seem to get it out and I've tried everything i can think of.
How did you get the stripped screw out?
Is it possible to identify the internal memory component, and swap it to upgrade from say, 16 GB to a 32, or even 128+? Are they standard computer components that can be changed, and is it possible without highly specialized equipment? I know the theoretical is possible. [I have two of these phones, one is as old as the Maxx model line, a 32g model, its well worn and the screen is damaged. The new one was very cheap but is only a 16GB model and its rather frustrating.
At this point, I may just swap the motherboard component from the old phone over, and basically have the original 32GB phone wrapped in all new case and screen and battery. But if I could then take the 16GB board and attempt a valiant effort to upgrade it beyond 64GB or even 128Gigs; this would be an interesting experiment if viable!
I did a screen swap on my phone today. NOTE: The T4 torx driver needed should listed as one of the tools included. You do need a T4 for the camera screw and you may find that not all T4 or T5 screws/drivers will fit properly. Fortunately, I had access to a couple of different screwdriver makes to perform the whole task.
The flat connector for the motherboard to screen is held by a piece of tape - peel that off and then you can pull the connector free, set tape aside for reassembly.. Putting the connector back on the socket required assistance with blunt, fine tweezers. Once reconnected, place the tape back over the connection.
I'm already done with this and I'm still ISO the t5 screw on this device..
A tutorial on replacing the power (on/off) button woud be a wonderful thing!
My droid maxx's screen has gone blank and nothing is showing on screen only it goes vibrates only. What is its problem?


Dana Pirolli, former cheerleader for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological condition in the United States, affecting approximately 1 in 26 people at some point in their lifetime. Estimates range between 1.3 and 2.8 million Americans who have some form of the seizure disorder, which disrupts electrical communication between neurons and is typically treated through anticonvulsive drug therapy.
The incredible strength needed to persist through the ups and downs of epilepsy is hard to grasp for those who have little or no exposure to the condition. During periods of more frequent seizure episodes, which often occur unprovoked, functioning at a high level in society can become a major challenge.
In a personal essay written for MTV Life, former Eagles cheerleader Dana Pirolli discusses how she overcame her condition and was able to take on her dream opportunity.
Diagnosed at 11 years old, Pirolli suffered from both absence seizures – brief but chronic lapses of awareness – and convulsive tonic-clonic seizures that are most frequently associated with epilepsy. Even though medication provided her long periods of relief, Pirolli's epilepsy has returned at various points throughout her life.
The path that I had planned had taken a complete left turn. I despised having epilepsy. I was forced to acknowledge it and I hated that the most. I just saw myself as a burden to the people around me and it made me embarrassed. Despite the lack of control in my life, that year surprisingly ended up being one of the most memorable.
In 2008, after attending community college and going six months without a seizure, Pirolli tried out for the Eagles cheerleading squad and made it, joining a team that would eventually reach the NFC Championship game.
Pirolli went on to have 5 straight years without seizures, but what's most insightful about her essay is the way she discusses managing the way she perceived herself relative to epilepsy, during good times and bad. In some instances, this impacted how much she committed took care of her overall health, occasionally slipping into complacency when things seemed normal.
Pirolli's epilipsy has come and gone in recent years, but she now acknowledges feeling happier and "at peace" as she aims to promote greater understanding about the condition.

As a young boy, Yong Chen worked as a farmer cultivating rice crops in his hometown of Fuzhou, China. Nowadays, he still works with rice, but in a very different way. When asked why he left his home country, he said, "there were too many people there, so we were pushed to go overseas to find a job." When Yong moved to the United States, he did not know where the journey would take him, but he knew that he needed to learn at least one skill. For four years, he jumped around from state to state working for various restaurants until he came to back to New York and eventually learned English working in a Chinese restaurant. However, he still felt that this type of cuisine didn't fit his personality.
Yong soon landed a job in New Jersey thanks to a job agency where he met his sushi "master" for the first time. Yong's master was the one who taught him everything he knew about sushi and opened a new restaurant upstate where Yong followed to learn more. After 8 years, Yong decided it was his turn to open his own little place and found a modest sized restaurant in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. As a perfectionist, Yong took control over the design and vision of the restaurant, but found it hard to delegate any other work. His frustrations with being the only sushi chef means no days off.
Yong's purpose is not to serve as many customers as he can, but to concentrate on executing the best quality sushi and great service. As you watch Yong's attention to detail and meticulousness, you'll understand why sushi is the perfect food for his personality. The menu is constantly improving and soon will include different techniques for creating sushi. Yong says, "It is frustrating when I am not able to execute the way I want," but as with all true sushi chefs, that frustration is the mark of someone who cares about serving the best food every time.
U-gu is located at 541 Myrtle Ave Brooklyn, NY 11205.

Communitas Clinics shortlisted for HSJ Award In Improving Care with Technology
By Communitas Clinics|2018-07-07T07:44:41+00:00September 22nd, 2017|Articles|
2017 marks the 36th year of the HSJ awards, widely recognised as the highest accolade in healthcare. Each year service providers are invited to apply across a broad range of categories, and only those who can demonstrate outstanding practices, as well as cutting-edge innovations, make it through to the shortlist.
Communitas Clinics' nomination, 'Improving Care with Technology' recognises the significant achievements of the service in its delivery of an NHS commissioned Teledermatology service in Surrey Downs. The technology systems in place ensure GPs have rapid access to specialist opinion, which has led to a reduction in waiting times and a decrease in inappropriate referrals being made to secondary care.
Dr Nilu Vajpeyi, Medical Director at Communitas Clinics, said, "It's fantastic to be shortlisted in this category. The Telederm service saves time for both patients and clinicians, but does not compromise in any way on the quality of care; in fact, the rapid access that GPs now have to expert opinion means it also has the knock-on effect of improving knowledge amongst our clinicians."
Managing Director of the service, Christian Lyons, "Being shortlisted a real testament to the hard work and dedication of our team. Given the huge challenges currently faced by the NHS, innovations such as these should be celebrated and shared, particularly in practices that not only benefit patients but also ease pressures within the service as a whole."
The winners will be announced at the HSJ Awards ceremony on 22nd November 2017.

Nocturnal Web Series
The Internet's first Gothic horror Web Series, presented to the nocturnal kindred through www.vampyrebeach.com. If you liked Dark Shadows, you will love Nocturnal.
Nocturnal: The Blood Stories
About Nocturnal
Nocturnal is a supernatural web series in the tradition of the classic Dark Shadows. The series premiered on the internet in March 2007. New webisodes are currently being produced with a launch date still to be announced.
Shot on location in and around Pittsburgh, PA, (though the city has never been explicitly named) the series revolves around the mysterious circumstances surrounding the murder of a young woman named Natalie Brew.
Not unlike Twin Peaks, the identity of Natalie's killer is one of the series' overarching mysteries. And, as police investigators Archer Reilly and Sarah Pennington discover, there is no shortage of suspects. Did she run afoul of the wealthy and powerful Hawthorne family—led by its patriarch Jebediah—whose power came as a result of dealings with dark forces? Or was she another in the seemingly endless victims of Dr. Ulrich Von Der Linn, a vampire masquerading as a hypnotherapist?
As with any series of this nature, there is also a host of secondary characters with their own roles to play in the proceedings including Jebidiah's nephew, Frankie, a cursed musician; Aphonso Cristillo, a seer; Cherie Meadows, an alluring witch; and Jebidiah's son, Marcellus, who harbors his own dark secrets.
The series was directed by David Silvio who directed and produced the cannibal thriller Meat for Satan's Icebox and more recently Fetish Dolls Die laughing. The Series is produced by Kiss of Death Productions in association with Baywood Films.

Following a direct request from the Government of Haiti in 2008, UNEP established a country programme to address the environmental degradation, extreme poverty and disaster vulnerability of the country, which is the poorest in the Western Hemisphere. UNEP developed a five-year plan based on the Government's priorities and set up a project office in Port-au-Prince with a core team of international and local staff, all equipped to implement a portfolio of diverse and practical projects.
The January 2010 earthquake, and the associated relief and recovery efforts of the UN, forced UNEP to radically change its plans. The organization implemented a range of short to medium term projects, mainly in energy, sanitation, resettlement planning and waste management in camps for Internally Displaced Persons in the affected areas. Simultaneously, UNEP provided emergency-related technical assistance on a national scale. These projects were completed at the end of 2011.
In 2011, UNEP resumed its planning and implementation of long-term sustainable development projects in Haiti, with a geographic focus on the southwestern peninsula, known as the "Grand Sud". Based upon a newly developed set of government priorities and informed by the lessons learned since 2008, UNEP has identified and prioritized opportunities for interventions that will have a major and lasting impact on the country (See: Haiti Grand Sud programme).
The UNEP Country Programme Office is located in Port Salut in the South Department. A small Liaison Office is maintained in Port-au-Prince for national and transnational elements of the programme, UNCT and national representation and logistical support.
UN Environment's Haiti Programme operates at regional, national and sub-national levels and in close collaboration with partners on the ground.


Qtum ICO An open source project, a distributed project aimed at exploiting the success of Bitcoin, is a competition between smart contracts and the distributed application market.
Qtum (Quantum) is an open source, decentralized project that aims to capitalize on the success of Bitcoin, while competing for the Decentralized Application (DAPP) and Smart Contract market. Our goal is to work with industry partners, and launch the first Value Transfer Protocol (VTP). This will streamline daily business routines, and allow for easier adoption. Qtum aims to become the first platform with Smart Contracts that execute as part of an Unspent Transaction Output (UTXO).
Instead of reinventing the wheel with a completely new codebase, Qtum is based on Bitcoin Core v0.13 and Proof-of-Stake 3.0 (POS). Qtum's method allows Smart Contracts to be operated without the need for accounts, and existing Ethereum applications can be ported to the Qtum Blockchain. Qtum Core development will be directed by the Qtum Foundation, which will be overseen by an established auditing firm.
This project aims not to be another medium for exchange, there are enough Blockchain projects to fill this demand. Instead, focus will be directed at various sectors where technology could streamline operations. All of this will fall into the framework of Decentralized Applications, based on a modified version of the Ethereum Virtual Machine.
There is a need for a stable codebase, consumers and businesses want confidence that their monetary value is not at risk of sudden incidents. This is why we are basing Quantum on Bitcoin Core for stability, and Blackcoin POS3.0 for consensus.
Technical Summary In this section we will discuss the Qtum Blockchain, a new Cryptocurrency created for consumers and businesses. Qtum is designed to be secure, stable, and fast. Quantum has expanded the scripting language of Bitcoin Core, so that it will now be possible to run Smart Contracts based on the Unspent Transaction Output model (UTXO). This means Qtum will not require the use of accounts to execute contracts between interested parties. Existing Ethereum Smart Contracts can be ported to Qtum with minimal changes. Other virtual machines and programming languages will be supported as the project matures. There will be functionality for third party data feeds and oracles, along with 'off chain' data processing. Qtum's consensus model will utilize Sunny King's classic Proof-of-Stake, which will secure the Blockchain, while rewarding coin holders.
Qtum aims to bring a new 'Value Transfer Protocol' to the industry. Bitcoin has done a tremendous service to the commerce and finance industry by providing a means of value transfer, and we would like to expand on this momentum. We plan to support the Qtum Blockchain with Smart Contracts that allow users to control coins by taking advantage of various Internet Protocols.
One of Qtum's growth strategies is the mobile telecommunications market. There is a vast amount of consumers that may not be aware of digital currencies, but could be introduced to Qtum by means of a viral marketing campaign. This does not mean that the average user isn't accustomed to paying with their mobile devices. In China, Wechat leverages their userbase of over half a billion people, to make payments for everyday goods and services. Just like Apple Pay, they make a quick scan with their device at the point of sale, and the money is deducted from their account. We plan to build Quantum applications that integrate into the popular messaging platforms like: Wechat, WhatsApp, Viber, and so forth. We call this the Qtum "Go Mobile" strategy.The English version of the whitepaper is being edited, and will be released in January 2017.
Qtum plans to deliver a business friendly platform that can push forward Blockchain technology. This means it's not just a retail coin, in which a merchant can create invoices for products or services. The opportunity for industry and business to make use of a public ledger is enormous. For an entity to be able to sell a product or service, provide the customer proof of purchase, and then maintain that item throughout its lifespan is invaluable.
There is big interest in Blockchain technology, especially in the finance industry. Currently, banks are applying for many Blockchain patents. This may be because they are fact finding, or plan to adopt technology into their core products and services. A lot of large corporations find themselves becoming too big, stale, and uncompetitive. Blockchain (and other disruptive technology) may threaten their business model in the years to come.
Through the Qtum Foundation, our goal is to facilitate these large organizations to adopt digital currency and blockchain technology into their mainstream operations. We will do this simply by introducing the power of Blockchain technology, and see whether there's a place for it in their business model.
Qtum is currently talking with a few corporations in China about strategic partnerships, but it is still too early to make announcements. At this point, the main focus is the social network, telecommunications, finance, and supply chain industries. Third party development will play a large role in the adoption of Qtum (and Blockchain as a whole). At this stage, most industries we have spoken with are curious about Blockchain, and whether it can improve or threaten their business.
Qtum core team comprises of several members, spanning the globe.
It has been a few days since we gave a status update, so we would like to give an overview of what's going on behind the scenes.
Recently, we have begun work on a new website. That should be ready in about 3 weeks, until then, we will continue to use the current one (https://qtum.org). The section where we list our Angel Backers has been updated, we will reveal more names shortly once we have approval. We plan to discuss with our Angels why they decided to support our project, and what they expect from our team in the future.
The Qtum Crowd Sale will start on March 1st. We currently have enough funds to last until the sale ends on April 1st. The Crowd Sale will be hosted by major Chinese exchanges, which will be announced in February. There will also be a direct sale that is done on our website. The concrete information about the Crowd Sale will be announced in our business whitepaper prepared by PricewaterhouseCoopers. The technical whitepaper will come out mid-February. The draft section that we released a few weeks back was from the last revision of the whitepaper, so that portion will be completely redone for the new version.
On the Press front, we have done a decent job gaining traction with Blockchain industry sites. Our focus right now is engaging with the mainstream press. A large part of this project involves preparing a Blockchain project for real world business applications. We already have a signed partnership agreement with a company valued at 100 million dollars USD, which we will discuss later. We are currently in discussions with more companies, who are excited about our "Go Mobile" strategy. This was actually the portion of our project that convinced a billionaire to back Qtum.
Our development team is currently merging the Proof-of-Stake protocol into Bitcoin Core v0.13, along with some testing of the Account Abstract layer we implemented to allow the EVM to run on a UTXO model. The screenshot earlier of the mobile wallet is what you can expect to see once we have a working testnet. Jordan Earls can give a better update on this later, and it's best to ask him questions directly if you want more details.
A: The EDCON (European Ethereum Development Conference) is a conference that will take place in Paris at the Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Paris – Europe (ESCP) on 17-18 February 2017. The conference will cover Ethereum technology and research (PoS, Scalability, Privacy) as well as Ethereum-based applications.
Q: Who is organizing EDCON?
A: EDCON is organized by LinkTime with the support and cooperation of developers from the Ethereum Foundation and the wider Ethereum community, as well as ADETIF, the Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Paris – Europe (ESCP), the Asseth (French Ethereum, nonprofit), La ChainTech (French blockchain, nonprofit).
Q: What topics will be discussed at EDCON?
A: There are two types of tickets: standard tickets and VIP tickets.
Standard Ticket: Able to attend the Main Conferences, morning community event and activities of Ethereum Community in Subconference.
VIP Ticket: 100 Tickets only. Able to attend the Main Conferences, Cocktail Party and activities of Ethereum Community in Sub-conference. VIPs are able to build deeper connections with core developers, investors and entrepreneurs. Highly recommended for those who want communicate more with core participants.
- A modular design approach can help developers better maintain the system.
Potentially incomplete GUI, full RPC methods for contract interaction.
Designed for developers, not consumers.
Should be stable, but features and RPC layer subject to change from community feedback.
SPV extended to support syncing contract state without full chain download.
GUI for smart contract interaction in wallet.
GUI may not be perfect but will be improved over time.
Stable RPC layer for developers.
It is essentially the Ethereum Virtual Machine retooled to run on the Bitcoin blockchain.
It allows for apps designed for Ethereum to run on its blockchain, meaning essentially that entire decentralized applications could easily move over or replicate themselves on Bitcoin as easily as they could onto Ethereum Classic.
QTUM smart contracts work because of custom code designed by QTUM, without which the transactions necessary to execute smart contracts wouldn't be possible.
QTUM's first decentralized application was Agrello, a platform which seeks to make artificial intelligence-powered, legally enforceable smart contracts.
It benefits from upgrades to both Ethereum and Bitcoin in the long run. One of the recent developments in Bitcoin which might really boost QTUM is Lightning Network.
In conclusion, Qtum is one of the next big startups. It's likely they could become a leading developer and innovator in when it comes to smart contract development and reliability. If you're familiar with Ethereum, looking to get in one something new or use Smart Contracts, then Qtum could be the right platform for you to look in to.

function getuser(){
    return json_decode(file_get_contents(__DIR__ . '/usuario.json'), true);
}

$users = getuser();
?>

<?php foreach ($users as $user): ?>
<?php echo $user['email']; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>

Ya he intentado agregar clave valor dentro del foreach pero tampoco tengo resultados.
Agradezco la ayuda de antemano.

A: Hola deberias verificar que la variable $users, contenga un array, lo que esta diciendo es que esta variable, tiene como valor null

A: Tu problema es que tenés comas al final de los valores.
Tal y como lo dice en la documentación de json_decode:
// las comas finales no están permitidas
$bad_json = '{ bar: "baz", }';
json_decode($bad_json); // null
