Did you know that water damage claims are now higher than fire claims? Leaky toilets, burst pipes and washing machine hoses can turn your home into a flooded mess. If there's nobody home to detect a leak the problem can become much worse.
But simple, inexpensive devices, such as a water sensor and automatic shut-off valve, can detect and even prevent water damage.
A water sensor is a device with a probe that detects a change in the environment, transmits data to the internet and notifies you when a leak occurs.
Usually, you'll install these where a leak is most likely to occur like the base of the water heater tank, by the toilet, by the washing machine, and even by a sump pump in the case of an overflow or pump failure. These simple sensors contain two leads that get short-circuited when water is present. When that happens, you get notified by email or text.
Are they expensive? A simple water sensor costs less than $60 and is easy to install.
One type is installed in the main water line and requires a licensed plumber to install. This sensor can measure the amount of water flow.
The other type is mounted on the pipe and can be done without the help of a plumber. This type of sensor works by detecting temperature differences at two separate points on the pipe, indicating how much water is flowing in the pipe.
The idea behind both sensors is that if water is flowing for longer than normal or is flowing when the house is not occupied, then an alert will be generated.
This solution usually works in conjunction with one of the two water flow detector methods described above. You will need a licensed plumber to install the device in line with the water main. When a water sensor detects water, a signal is sent to the sensor on the main water line. The sensor contains a ball valve in the pipe which will then close, effectively shutting off the water to the whole house. The advantage of this solution is that the water damage will be limited to a few seconds, preventing thousands of dollars in losses.
Is it expensive? A water shut-off system will probably require a plumber. In some cases, it may also need a connected home hub to function.

We have just teamed up with organic skincare producer Spiezia, marrying the beauty of herbs through skincare and herbal tea.
The 'Pants of Power' is an expression for a technique that I have used many times. It was inspired by a conversation with my lovely sister, Kate when we were walking the Cornish coastal path. I was going through an extremely changing time in my life and so I concocted a tool to help me.
The Pants of Power give you the head-space you need to breath and the confidence to be strong during stressful times and brave when you feel nervous.
When I need the Pants of Power, I follow these simple steps.
1) Step away from the mobile phone. Switch it off and put it away. Take some deep breaths to recover from the separation.
2) Give yourself some headspace. No social media, emails, computers or phones. Switch off anything that is a distraction.
3) Now get yourself a blank sheet of paper. Draw a thought bubble in the middle and write down the issue or event you want to deal with.
Now look at it. Ask is that issue a real issue or imagined? Use this time to rein in your thoughts, be energised, calm and focused. How would your superhero deal with the matter?
Write down all the incredible qualities you have along with some you would like to have more of.
Write down things that you have achieved in your life. What has made you feel great?
Write down the outcome you want from facing the challenge. How will it look and feel? What will you feel like after you have dealt with it?
4) So you now have your challenge, have a good look at this and allow yourself to really absorb the key words which sum up what you want to achieve and how you will feel.
5) Now stand up straight with your hands on your hips: close your eyes and imagine that you are about to go into the situation you want to deal with. Really feel and see yourself as that person.
Imagine you have absolutely donned those pants of power and you are empowered, calm, strong, fair and just. Feel the smile bubble up and hold on to that feeling.
Now, you are set. You are wearing the pants of power.
My own 'Pants of Power' resemble Wonder Woman's but that is because I was a child of the 1970's.

If you take a look at the photo that goes with the newly announced Logitech Keyboard Case for the iPad 2 you will notice right away that it looks exactly like the ZAGGmate iPad keyboard case I reviewed for the original iPad a while back. The reason that it looks very similar is that Logitech has bought the rights to be the exclusive distributor for the ZAGGmate case for the iPad 2.
The new name of the case is the Logitech Keyboard Case and it appears to be every bit as cool as the case I reviewed for the iPad. The iPad sits in the case, which adds little bulk, and the case will protect the iPad from drops and bumps. When you need to type you can pull the iPad out of the case, prop it on the integrated stand, and access the keyboard that hides under the iPad.
The keyboard connects to the iPad via Bluetooth so no wires are needed. I would assume the keyboard on the iPad 2 version to be the same as the keyboard on the original version that I reviewed not too long ago. If it is that keyboard is very nice even if the buttons are a bit small. It is laid out much like your typical netbook keyboard.
The agreement between ZAGG and Logitech will also see Logitech making the case and will get the case into more countries that ZAGG is in alone. Logitech is selling the case for $99 and it will start shipping this month.

Courier Spotlight: 2017 Couriers Part 1
Faces of Frontier News & Events
At the heart of Frontier Nursing University is a talented and diverse community of students, alumni, faculty, staff, Couriers and preceptors. Spotlight blogs feature members of our FNU community that are focused on the mission of educating nurse-midwives and nurse practitioners to deliver quality health care to underserved and rural populations.
In 1928, Mary Breckinridge, founder of Frontier Nursing University established the Courier Program, recruiting young people to come work in the Kentucky Mountains and learn about service to humanity. Couriers escorted guests safely through remote terrain, delivered medical supplies to remote outpost clinics, and helped nurse-midwives during home visits and births. Frontier has benefited tremendously from the 1,600 Couriers who have served since 1928.
This week and next, we'll be introducing you to the 2017 Courier Class. Please join us in welcoming our newest Couriers!
Brie Belz is a freshman biology major in the pre-med track at Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va. She is a dog lover, enjoys the outdoors, and feels she is at her best when she is helping others. She was born in North Carolina, but spent most of her life in Virginia. The book which has most influenced her is The Alchemist. If she could master one skill, it would be to whistle. The craziest thing she has ever done is jump off a cliff, and her proudest accomplishment was serving as the keynote speaker at the National Space Club's Goddard Memorial Dinner in Washington, D.C. In five years, she hopes to be in medical school.
Claire Gasparovich is a third year nursing student at the College of Saint Mary in Omaha, Neb. She is passionate about being involved in her local church, as well as the inner-city missions established in her area. When she is not studying, she enjoys camping, traveling and other outdoor activities. The most influential book she has read is Small Wonder by Barbara Kingsolver. When asked about her expectations of the program, Claire responded, "I am very excited and blessed to be involved in the Courier Program and expect to develop a more applicable understanding of what it means to be active in service as a nurse in my community." In five years, she hopes to be working and studying to be a nurse practitioner.
Matt Hodges is a sophomore at Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Ind., where he studies biochemistry and mathematics. He is an avid musician. Matt began playing percussion when he was seven and has since branched out into other instruments. His favorite book is The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky. If he could have dinner with anyone, it would be Kurt Vonnegut. His personal hero is his father, and his favorite band is The Shouting Matches. His proudest accomplishment is earning a full-ride scholarship. In five years, he sees himself in medical school.
Brigid Horan is a junior nursing major at Saint Anselm College in Manchester, N.H. She is originally from Salem, Conn. Brigid says her favorite nursing class has been Pediatric Nursing, and she hopes to work in the NICU or a pediatric setting in the future. Brigid found out about the Courier Program through her sister, Teresa, who was a Courier in 2013. Her proudest accomplishment is being accepted into the Navy Nurse Corps. The craziest thing she has ever done is go cliff diving. If she could have dinner with anyone, it would be Florence Nightingale. Her goal is to continue her nursing education to become a Nurse Practitioner or Nurse Anesthetist.
We will feature the rest of Couriers next week. Has this article sparked any questions about a specific Courier or the Courier program? You have the opportunity to learn more about the Couriers' experience! In a future blog post, Couriers and Courier program staff will answer questions asked by you. To ask a question, email courier.program@frontier.edu or share your questions on social media with the hashtag #askthecouriers by Thursday, July 6, at 5pm EST.

Let's celebrate my birthday by giving a donation to provide clean water to children and their families in need.
Imagine the most amazing birthday gift you could ever get. It can be anything. A new car, a luxurious trip … Anything. Imagine how happy you'd be. Now imagine you were so sick you were never able to appreciate that gift.
If you don't have your health, nothing is as enjoyable as it could be.
The same holds true for people all around the world. So many of them get regularly sick from something you and I take for granted: an abundance of clean, safe drinking water.
This year for my birthday, I'm pledging to do something to help families who don't have safe water, and I'm asking you to make a difference with me.
Pledge your gift to my birthday fundraiser to help a family in the developing world have access to safe and clean water.

Thank you Frede. Just saw your new Makino, really good.


Revamped item history tracking: We've restructured how Mozenda tracks item history. This new architecture will allow you track history on more items for longer periods of time.
Possibly one less column of data: If you're tracking history but not deleting old items, you may no longer receive the column with item statuses.
Welcome everybody! We are happy to have you at this webinar for our new, major release. How you can do more with your data and save more time and money doing it as well.
While we are waiting for people to join, I know it has happened to me before where, you know, I get a reminder last minute and I am trying to download the app and trying to dial into the session. So while that is occurring, we will give everybody about a minute, let me cover a few things. Number one, thank you for being a customer. We are excited to have you! A couple of things here also. First of all where is everybody from? I would love to see where everybody is from. Please go ahead and send chats to me. I would love to see that. Hopefully we can share that later.
Mozenda has been in development for over 10 years. Mozenda has also built the most powerful web scraping tool in the market. We also have world class, in-house customer support. Just outside this door, we have an incredible staff, and they will answer your phone calls and your emails. We are happy to do so. This is why 27% of fortune 500 companies, and thousands of small/medium businesses trust Mozenda. Because we truly care about providing you with world class service. It is important to note that our tool is very easy to use. For most websites and cases you don't need to be a developer to use our tool. There are some websites that are a little harder to scrape, and that is when we are available for you to call us. We can even do a screen share and go through the process with you to make sure you get the data you are looking for.
Let's go ahead and jump in. I think it's been long enough to have everybody download the app and join us. This is the team that is going to be on the call today. Chris Curtis is the development team lead. By the way, all of these engineers have over 20 years of combined experience in our tool, at Mozenda. They are extremely passionate about what they do. They know the code and all the features inside and out.
Let me introduce Chris Curtis, development team lead; Joe Fullmer, Senior software engineer; Nathan Barton, quality assurance engineer; and I am Mike Alvarez, director of marketing and customer success.
Let's go through the agenda now. We're first going to cover the why. I will cover that in just a second. Secondly, just for couple of minutes, we're going to cover the basics. Only a couple of minutes because there are few of you that are new to Mozenda. Most of our attendees today are power users. The item history demo, that is what we are going to cover next. Then best practices. And the last one is going to be a question and answer section.
Let's jump into this. The big why. We have a core belief in Mozenda that if we can make things faster, more efficient, and help you collect greater amounts of data that helps you make better business decisions, you will keep coming back for more. So this is what we have done. Engineers got together and tried to figure out what would be in the next release. And they decided we were going to add these features that are going to add greater flexibility, speed, and savings for you! Firstly, we are going to allow you to store larger amounts of historical data and secondly, allow you to view your item history without having to rerun your agents. Thus, saving you time, money, and processing credits. I don't know about you, but I think everybody should be excited about that. Now I am going to turn the time over to Nathan, and he is going to cover the basics and the demonstration. Then Joe is going to cover best practices, and Chris will chime in whenever he is available. Go ahead Nathan.
Great, thanks Mike! I appreciate it. We are really excited about this particular feature. Like Mike said I am going to cover some basic background then roll right into a show-and-tell demo. In order for us to really allow you to store larger amounts of history and change your configuration without rerunning your agent, we really need to understand why we would need to apply different filters to your data.
Let's go over to the web console and see the data set lines I have gathered here. Here I have a list of data that I have scraped from the web of retail TV sets. You can see that I have quite a few rows here. A few rows of products are actually the same. There are quite a few rows of the Samsung 64 inch 4K HDTV for example. But remember, I am specifically looking for products in relation to their availability. I want to collapse that down and only see those particular items. In order to this I am going to take advantage of the unique fields fitler. We are going to go ahead and apply that now by going to the fields view here. I am going to start off right out of the gate by selecting product ID as the unique field, setting that, and allowing Mozenda to apply that filter based on the configurations we have set here. That is currently applying that unique field, cleaning that data. And here you see I got each of those products collapsed down into the unique identifier of product ID. We're now only seeing one instance of that particular product; the Samsung 64 inch. That is just the basics. We're going to jump into the concept of how Mozenda allows you to apply the unique fields filter, as well as few other filters.
Let's jump back to a brief graphic here. We just touched briefly on the unique fields filter. This graphic here is helping us describe the flow of data as it exists in Mozenda. There are several filters, we covered the first. Well actually we will cover more on unique fields. If we go back to my business case we actually want to see products by availability.
To start things off, we only apply a unique field to a product ID. If you have used unique fields in the past one of the things you will remember is that if I have applied a unique field and need to change that configuration to include another field as part of that unique set, then I would need to rerun the agent to gather the data again. One of the changes we have made to this update is that once you have scraped the data with a particular field you can change that unique field's configuration without having to rerun your data. Let's go ahead and apply both product ID and availability as our unique fields.
Go back to the data set here. You'll see back to that Samsung 64 inch that there is actually one available both in store and online. Now we have collapsed down to that combination of unique fields, which you can identify with the key icon in those field headers.
That is one of the first filters that you can apply to a data set after it's been scraped to that raw harvesting results. One of the other filters that you can apply after harvesting results is what we call "What do you want to include." There are a couple of ways you can apply that filter. For example, if you want your agents to aggregate data for a period of time or over all your individual bookmarks you can select a filter called "All items ever found." This will let you view all of the unique items across all bookmarks, making that agent configure to aggregate data. You can also set it to "Most recently completed run," which is the most recent complete bookmark for that particular agent and the one that has completed its bookends.
In this particular case this agent is currently set to "All items ever found." If i were to change that to "Most recent completed run", you will see the unique fields filter has been applied and you will see those collapsed down. You will also see the item status column. In this case all six of these items have not been changed since the previous bookmark. It's important to keep in mind that the item status shown in this particular view is in relation to the previous bookmark to the most recently completed run. This is an example of another filter that you can apply to your raw harvesting results to be able to consume the data. Now, this "What to include" filter, plays a role into the type of data that is sent to your combined collections if this agent sources a combined collection. It also plays a role to what data is sourced by a data item list or what is published and exported.
In this particular case this agent is defaulted to "All items ever found." I know that because when I am select the most recently completed run, I see the same icon to the right of the drop down here. If I were to set this agent to default to the most recently completed run, I would simply select this icon, save this, review the data in this information in this dialog, say ok, and now this agent is set to default to the most recently completed run. But don't worry, you can always go back to view the "All items ever found." Let's go ahead and do that now and resave that configuration. We want this agent to aggregate data.
We're doing this to show you that (again, the same concept I was talking about before) if you need to change the configuration for this particular agent, you can do so without needing to rerun the agent. The way we can do this by setting your harvesting settings to "Store item history." Let's crack open the harvesting settings for this particular agent. In the behavior tab of the harvesting setting you may remember that we used to have "Track item history" and "Delete old items on successful completion" as settings. We have consolidated both of those settings into one setting, "Store item history." With this setting enabled, we will store all the data that you have scraped for this particular agent, so that if you need to change your configuration of unique fields and what to include filter, you can do so without having to rerun the agent. So we definitely want this agent to store item history.
Now I talked about how the "What to include" filter had an effect on both publishing and exporting. We made a few changes to those settings that we want to go through. The publishing dialog, if we open that up. If I want to set a publisher to email me with the data, I could also include the "All items ever found" or the "Most recently completed run." Now this will default to whichever of those settings I have set the agent to persist. But don't worry, you can choose either of those options for publishing. Let's select the most recently completed run and save that publishing configuration. Once it has been saved, that configuration will store as a setting for your publisher.
Let's take a look at the same thing in the export dialog. You can see there is the "What to include in the file" filter here. I have the same options, as well as the option to export harvesting results. That is one filter that we have not talked about yet. It's a little bit different than the first two, so let's go back to the data view, and change our view to harvesting results. It takes a little bit of time for these filters to be applied. The system, once you have chosen your configuration, will need to process through those and need to apply the unique fields and "What to include" filters. We know you want to see your data as the agent's running, so we have included this option for you to be able to (as your agent is running in real time) refresh this view, go to the harvesting results and see the raw data coming in as it's being scraped. Now a couple of things we would like to make known here. The harvesting results, this is raw data. The unique fields filter and the "What to include" filter are not applied here in this particular case. You can see that we have our duplicate items in our list. As the agent runs, it will gather this raw data. And eventually will finish scraping and will refresh the data. [Refreshing Data…] You may have seen this in the status of your agents up at the top of the dashboard. The "Refreshing Data" will take the raw harvesting results you can see in this particular view, clean it, add those filters and move that to the most recently completed run, as well as update the "All items ever found" so at that point, once the refreshing data status is completed, you will be able to see those raw results in those particular reports.
We've talked a little bit about those reports, lets finish the life cycle of data here for Mozenda. One that you may be familiar with that we've had is item status filters. We wanted to touch on this here real quick. We've noticed the item status in the most recently completed run. You may not see that anymore in the view "All items ever found" because that is an aggregation of data. But we still allow you to have the ability to change those filters to be able to see which items have been added, changed, unchanged or even deleted when you're storing this item history. We also still have the ability to iterate through different bookmarks to see the data for that particular snapshot for that particular point in time. We have broken that up into its own view. Let's go to the history view. Here we can select a bookmark from this dropdown to view. Let's review the most recent one. We currently have six items that have been unchanged. Let's select the deleted filter and make sure we include that in here. Because we have one item that was removed from the website that was not scraped on this more recently completed bookmark. Let's go down to the previous bookmark and see what those item statuses are. Here we can see a few of them that have changed with the majority of them unchanged. It's important to keep in mind the item status is in relation to the previous bookmark. We can change this filter. This is just another filter we allow you to apply to be able to view and consume your data.
One last filter we would like to talk about in the life cycle of data is our simple views. You may be familiar with custom views that you can create to apply criteria, sorting to, and this will apply on top of all previous filters that we have talked about. Let's really quickly finish of by creating a custom view. Let's create a view that includes only items that we can purchase in bulk, so that have a quantity greater than one. I am going to name this view, select my column heading that I want to include, and set a criteria (in this case in the quantity field I am going to want to set a criteria to be not equal to one). Let's save that particular view. You'll notice here that this filtered the data down even further to this single item. That is all of the filters that we allow you to configure for your agent. Once you have the raw harvesting results and store item history, you can then pick and choose your particular configuration and change that as you need so that you can consume it. That is all we had for the demo. Thanks Mike!
Hey this is fantastic! As you were going through the demo, I couldn't help but think of those of you who are used to using Macs. That bookmarks feature is similar to what Mac uses for time machine. To go back in time and access previous data. That is a great feature. Joe would you mind covering what you believe are some of the best practices to set this up and also other things that our clients may want to consider while using this?
Certainly, yeah, I would like to talk to that. As a developer, one of the most exciting things about this for me was to add this ability to change your uniques and then not have to go rerun your agents. As we saw previously, Nathan in his demo had the unique on product ID and so all of the items with that same product ID all collapsed down to a single one. But then we realized, wait! We wanted to have that same product ID distinguished by whether its available or not. We were able to apply that additional unique field and after the system does its recalculating, we have new results. Depending on how many millions of rows you have, it may take a little bit of time but will certainly be a lot less time than having to go and re-scrape all of that data. Previously the system would have already collapsed and burned data in that deduping process. Whereas now, once you have chosen your configuration, yes, we burn it in but we are able to go back to those original scraped items and change our configuration and burn it in with different uniques. So now you not only save processing credits from having to rescrape, but you also save time. And I guess the other benefit would be, let's say the product is no longer available on the website. So when you go to rescrape, or rerun your agents, it doesn't even pick it up. I think that is the number 1 feature here, the ability to have all of that history at beckon call. You can change all of your uniques and look at your data in different ways, use different combinations of uniques, and learn different things from that.
Another feature that is not a main focus of this webinar is the improvement of image storage. If you have an agent that scrapes images or downloads files and for example, 100 of the items were scraped and it scraped that same image. Let's say this Sony tv we're looking at here. It scraped from several different categories. Well, previously we would have saved that image as many times as we have scraped the item. Now we will save that item just once and save on some storage costs. Those are the big exciting benefits for me, keeping the history and being able to change your uniques on the fly, and being able to look at your different views, whether aggregated, the most recently completed run, or everything unfiltered as it's coming in.
So Joe, I guess bottom line is that duplicates we used to discard before, now we realized that they are just an absolute gold mine of information, right?
Yes, yes. And what we learned is that customers often look at their data and realize "oh you know what.. I actually needed to be more granular with my duplicates. I do want to see this same Sony TV more than once if it's in different categories for example, or if they have a different price". So customers don't want to have to go and rerun the agent to get that. That's great!
You also asked if I would speak to best practices. One of the things that I think is very important when you design your agent, or first set it up, is including data or information that may not seem important right now but will be useful down the road. Nate set this up and scraped "available". We initially did not have that in our unique field but he saw that it was an available piece of information to scrape so he grabbed it. If he hadn't done that and then we realize later, you know boss comes and says "I need to know whether they are available or not" you would have had to go and re run your data. Obviously we cannot work miracles and have data that wasn't scraped to begin with. That is one of my key points. Grab all the data you can as you scrape each item as you setup your agent to capture these items. If there is a piece of information that is easy to grab, grab it!
That is an excellent point because a lot of times some of the information on that page is missed because it's not asked of us as we were trying to collect this data. But if we can, we might as well grab more data. If we were to go back in time and plot all of this out and trend it overtime you would be able to see some incredible information and be able to make business decisions. That's great Joe, thanks so much for that!
Let's go back to the power point and take over on this end. So just a quick summary. What you see in red is basically what is new. After selecting unique fields we allow you to do more custom filtering and sorting to be able to use the information in a consumable way. This provides a visual that is really easy to understand, what happened before and what happens now. So before you would actually scrape all this data and sort it for example in a category called smart TVs. Now as your scraping data and you're not deleting the duplicates, if you take a look at the new step 2, you are able to now see the data based off the categories smart TVs, 4K TVs or 52 inches. Previously you would have to run 3 agents to get that information. With the new feature you can run the agent once.
So let's go ahead and jump into questions and answers and we will wrap this up. We do have a good question here. What if I set the product ID as a unique field in this data. Can my agent still run and scrape my other data?
That's an excellent question! I can talk about that. So one of the things that we want to talk about briefly is about setting up your agent. It's important to make sure that if you would like to apply all of these filters that you have the data available in your raw harvesting results to apply these filters. Now what that means is that you may only be required to scrape certain amounts of data but you might need to be forward thinking about what fields you may want to include later down the road in case you need to change that configuration. Back to our business case, if we had never scraped quantity for example, if that wasn't one of our fields, then we would not be able to apply those filters after the fact. So even if we don't need that right away it might be beneficial for us to set up the agent to include that filter. So step one really is to understand which fields are needed, which fields might be needed in the future, and which fields you might want to include even though that might be extra data you do not need right now. That is step one.
Step two is in the case of the unique fields. If you would like to apply that unique fields filter, that happens after some scraping of the raw data. So in this particular case, if the product ID were to not exist on the webpage, then that unique fields filter will be applied at the end, identifying that particular line item as null or empty. The agent will still scrape the data as you've created that agent definition, but the unique fields filter will apply afterwards on top of that raw result. Hopefully that answers your question. Thanks Mike.
Great, there is another quick question here. Approximately what is the amount of time for an agent's data to refresh?
That is an excellent question! A lot of that really depends on the size of the raw harvesting results: how many rows of data, how many columns exist in that particular collection. Because it varies so much I don't know if I could give an exact time because each collection is different. But like I have mentioned before, one of the main focuses of this development process is to allow you to see your raw harvesting results as it's being scraped so that you can make sure that your agent is gathering the data that you want. There may be a period of time of collection maintenance if it's a large collection. The refreshing data may take some time if it's a large collection, or it may be fairly brief. I'm sorry I can't apply an exact time, it really does depend. We recommend knowing your collection and knowing your agent and the time associated with each of those particular actions.
Thank you Nathan! Thank you everybody for being on the phone call. Thank you for being a customer of Mozenda's! We are excited to hear your feedback on everything to do with this release. If you find any gold nuggets of data we would love to hear it! We would love to hear your testimonials as well.

Q: How to count Collective failure rate for chips? i wonder where 0,81 from, from this lecture www.eng.auburn.edu/~agrawvd/COURSE/FULL/lec3.ppt -page 14.
i try find specific area in failure rate, but it seems i can't find 0,81 from
let's say Chips = C , then there's Cn chips that has failure rate,
so the formula would be C1+C2+...Cn - [?] = answer
could anyone understand about this test economic.
thank you

A: The collective failure rate is one or both may happen =
A + (1 - A) x B = A + B - A x B
The 0.81 is from A x B (=0.9x0.9).
I don't use statistics often, but for 3 elements, doing the above recursively, the combined rate =
A + B + C - AxB - AxC - BxC + AxBxC

Following his first exhibition in the Middle East at The Third Line, New York-born and based Palestinian artist Jordan Nassar talks to Katrina Kufer about orienting his practice around tatreez, giving back, and amending political views from an experiential standpoint
The crossovers of culture, identity and tradition resonate within artist Jordan Nassar. A second-generation American whose Palestinian family immigrated to New York in the early 1920s and quickly assimilated into their new home, Nassar admits internalising a pronounced struggle about political and cultural perspectives. "I felt conflicted because I grew up in a Jewish neighbourhood with specific understandings, but at home, my father, a psychiatrist, had been doing human rights work dealing with PTSD in the West Bank since the 1990s," he says. "I was confused because I had two sets of information presented to me and it was hard to navigate."
Nassar's concept of Palestine was formulated by his father, himself informed by inherited nostalgia: "My father internalised this Palestinian identity and is very attached to it, but it isn't real—it's romanticised nostalgia of this Utopian homeland." Nassar's subsequent time as an adult spent in Palestine and neighbouring nations revealed a juxtaposition of the imaginings of his father alongside attempts to identify with America or Palestine as a mixed culture individual. "It's exciting to learn about my history but I'm such an alien there—tattooed, pierced, a New Yorker, so not an Arab, but in America I'm always hanging out with Arabs and listening to Arab music. I'm not comfortable in either place," he admits. "I realise more and more this is one of the ripple effects of the Diaspora across generations."

Interested in inherited nostalgia—while avoiding political debate—he translates painterliness into embroidery. Adopting the female generationally learned tradition of Palestinian tatreez, Nassar's take on the symbolic, geographically specific embroidery mirrors his hybrid existence. "They're about colour and composition, and in interrupting the cross-stitch grids with landscapes, its creating dreamy places that don't really exist," remarks Nassar. Influenced two-fold by Lebanese poet and artist Etel Adnan, "Her paintings are gorgeous, she's a genius colourist, and I read how events in her life led to the work she made and using it to address difficult internal struggles," he explains. "She inspired me to break the natural grid and patterns and my first piece worked in one of her landscapes, but I didn't want to take too much of her visual language because I wanted to develop my own way." Adnan opened his mind to bending the rules. "I always felt like a fake Arab, but she also struggled with ownership over an Arab identity, so many things I was feeling. It made me think, 'hey, I'm Palestinian, just a different kind', and that I should own it because it makes me more unique. The floodgates opened."

It was from this point Nassar deviated from subdued, minimal and mathematical interpretations of tatreez towards the unconventional. Collaborating with Palestinian women in Bethlehem camps to produce sensitive, colourful works, he joined the likes of Algerian Calligraffiti artist eL Seed and Moroccan photographer Hassan Hajjaj, who likewise partnered with refugee embroiderers for projects under the philanthropic arts organisation 81Designs. Nassar's embroidery-as-painting differs in that he sews as well, an unorthodox tactic supported by the women after they examined his stitching, a talent they attributed to his "Palestinian blood", thus allowing his gender to be overlooked. With recent examples in For Your Eyes at The Third Line, Dubai, Nassar's technique reconfigures tatreez into symbolically liberated forms that reference, rather than reside in, tradition.
The women—of whom his projects financially aid and empower—add another twist by implementing their chromatic choices onto Nassar's predetermined patterns. "I remove a part of the pattern so that when I get it back I fill in a landscape, but usually the women use whatever and however many colours they want in their own style," he explains. "I want them to do what feels right and makes sense to them because I want it to be traditional. I respond to their choices, and my sense of colour rubs off on them so they choose new more contemporary combinations. It's a back-and-forth, always a surprise." It also means that their organic approach—wherein imperfect stitches don't impede the larger whole—"is beautiful," says Nassar. "It's charming and what makes it handmade and special. The Arab geometry suddenly cut by an overlaid landscape painting, where we're doing the same stitches but in different ways, it's crazy to look at! But it's funny because in the art world, the fact they're made by others for me means it's less authentic, but in the real world, employing their inherited living traditions and craftsmanship is what makes it authentic."

Of exhibiting in the Middle East to an audience more intimately familiar with the practices and nuances of Palestine, Nassar says, "I always talk about the region with my work but showing in America is a different conversation because the views are less informed. It's my goal to talk about and teach people the nuances of this really crazy, intricate situation and the identity of Palestinians in and outside of Palestine, and how it's much more than Palestine versus others." He elaborates on his perception of contradictions in and outside of the region, where many of his regional acquaintances have defied traditional political viewpoints. "I don't want people to be polarised, I'm all about sharing, and aside from the obvious philosophical rights and wrongs, there is something to be said about the reality, how this is just how it is, and that people need to live their lives, follow their dreams. It's important to be active and vocal about the situation, but you can't let it ruin your life."
Nassar illustrates this perspective by channeling Palestine through its aesthetic canons, sprinkled with East-West visual tropes, rather than engaging in the political themes embraced by his Palestinian artistic contemporaries. He's adamant that revealing shared elements between Palestine and its neighbour, rejecting preconceptions, and highlighting his experience of how "on the day-to-day people are living together and sharing their lives", will help alleviate notions of an atmosphere of mutual hatred. "I'm intrigued by Palestinians who live in Jaffa and how they navigate it, because they were just born there, that's what they know, and they're happy with their lives, but many other Palestinians have issues with that happiness. It's nuanced and complicated."

Nassar's means of navigation include his behind-the-scenes activism in financially aiding his craftswomen collaborators, as well spreading a broader philosophical message. "When the political situation seems so hopeless, it feels good knowing that I'm doing good for the lives of some people, especially since my message isn't just 'Free Palestine'—its more about understanding and exchange and trying to live together and get on with our lives in peace." He adds that there's a distinct idea of Palestine for Palestinians in the Diaspora, and that "it's interesting to see what impressions they have, and how this Palestine only exists in their mind. Palestine's amazing, but it isn't Utopia—it's a real place with real people. I grew up with it being the dream you're yearning to return to, but I've learned not to idealise it." Nassar is curious to see what conversations arise regionally as an American-Palestinian male producing tatreez, exhibiting in vastly different contexts to audiences with various levels of personal connection to Palestine. However, his practice begs the question of whether it's a step towards a more genuine understanding of an evolving Palestinian identity, or a step away towards a growing form of distanced globalisation.

Earlier today, Thomas Torre, the former Chief Financial Officer of Metro Fuel Oil Corp., pled guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud. According to court filings and facts presented during the plea proceeding, Torre conspired in a scheme to overstate Metro Fuel's accounts receivable in order to draw from a revolving line of credit issued by New York Commercial Bank. The fuel company later filed for bankruptcy after fraudulently obtaining over $30 million from the bank.
The guilty plea was announced by Kelly T. Currie, Acting United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, and Diego Rodriguez, Assistant Director-in- Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, New York Field Office.
"Through his deceit and trickery, Torre defrauded New York Commercial Bank in an amount exceeding $30 million," stated Acting United States Attorney Currie. "We will remain alert to such schemes and will aggressively prosecute those who would steal from our financial institutions." Mr. Currie extended his grateful appreciation to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the agency which led the government's investigation.
From approximately July 2007 to July 2012, Torre and others falsely overstated the company's accounts receivable on certificates submitted to the bank at least once per month by not recording cash payments from customers and by creating fictitious invoice amounts. The bank relied on this misinformation in determining the amount Metro Fuel could borrow on its revolving line of credit. By September 2012, Metro Fuel could no longer pay its bills and filed a voluntary petition for bankruptcy.
Today's guilty plea took place before United States District Judge Pamela K. Chen. When sentenced, Torre faces up to 30 years in prison, as well as forfeiture and a fine.
The government's case is being prosecuted by the Office's Business and Securities Fraud Section. Assistant United States Attorney William P. Campos is in charge of the prosecution. Assistant United States Attorney Brian D. Morris is handling the forfeiture aspect of the case.
The charges were brought in connection with the President's Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force. The task force was established to wage an aggressive, coordinated and proactive effort to investigate and prosecute financial crimes. With more than 20 federal agencies, 94 U.S. attorneys' offices, and state and local partners, it's the broadest coalition of law enforcement, investigatory and regulatory agencies ever assembled to combat fraud. Since its formation, the task force has made great strides in facilitating increased investigation and prosecution of financial crimes; enhancing coordination and cooperation among federal, state, and local authorities; addressing discrimination in the lending and financial markets; and conducting outreach to the public, victims, financial institutions, and other organizations. Since fiscal year 2009, the Justice Department has filed over 18,000 financial fraud cases against more than 25,000 defendants.

Ontario budget eliminates deficit, but debt estimated at $312B
Every Ontarian now owes roughly $22,000, and the total debt will grow to $336 billion in 2019-2020; The Ontario Chamber of Commerce expressed concern that there is "no clear path for long-term fiscal prudence"
April 28, 2017	by Allison Jones, The Canadian Press
TORONTO—Ontario's Liberal government has finally eliminated its deficit, but its debt is rising to new heights.
The province's first balanced budget in a decade gets rid of a deficit that had at one point reached about $20 billion, and the government is projecting that balance will continue through to 2020.
The debt, however, is another matter. It is projected to be $312 billion this year, or roughly $22,000 for every Ontarian, and grow to $336 billion in 2019-2020.
The province's net debt has tripled since the provincial Liberals came to power. In the last budget presented by Ontario's Progressive Conservatives before the 2003 election, the debt was about $110 billion.
The overall size of the budget, meanwhile, has roughly doubled—from $71 billion in 2003 to $141 billion this year.
Interest on debt is the fourth largest spending area, at $11.6 billion. It is also projected to be the fastest-growing spending area, at an average 3.6 per cent a year from 2015 to 2020, compared to an annual 3.3-per-cent increase in health and 2.8 per cent in education.
There is no plan in the Liberal budget to get the debt under control, said Progressive Conservative Leader Patrick Brown.
"We are spending more servicing the debt each year than we're spending on all transit and provincial highways, more than we're spending on the Ministry of Children and Youth Services…more than on care for seniors, more than investments in our post-secondary education, more than supporting northern communities," he said.
But Ontario Finance Minister Charles Sousa said debt is in fact being managed.
"A first step to managing debt is coming to balance," he said.
The debt-to-GDP ratio is improving, Sousa said, and the percentage of the budget that goes toward servicing the debt is considerably smaller than it has been in years.
"We've locked in those rates over long periods of time to minimize volatility and risk," he said.
The Ontario Chamber of Commerce was pleased to see a balanced budget, but said it is concerned there is "no clear path for long-term fiscal prudence."
"While there is no deficit over the planning period, there is also no plan for surplus," the group representing the province's businesses said in a statement. "Given that, downward payment on the debt will be pushed beyond the medium term."
The Canadian Taxpayers Federation questioned what will happen to the budget if interest rates rise.
"It's balanced on a knife's edge," said Ontario director Christine Van Geyn. "If there's a change in what are right now historically low interest rates, the province could be thrown into really a huge fiscal hole."
The net-debt-to-GDP ratio is down to about 37.5 per cent from a high of roughly 40 per cent in recent years, but the government hopes to wrestle it down to pre-recession levels of 27 per cent by 2029-30. In the interim, the government has set a target of reducing that number to 35 per cent by 2023-24.

Important: Scoot user is responsible to check the temporal parking prohibitions, such as, road works, markets, pruning tree branches or filmations. In case this way, user will be not able to finish the ride if the temporal prohibition starts in less than 48 hours, for instance, if the prohibition starts on sunday at 10 AM, user is authorized to to park untill 10 AM from previous friday.
You will lock your bike inside the Scoot zone in areas designated for this purpose (bike parkings with U racks).
Do not lock to trees, traffic lights, benches, recycling containers, litter bins, bus shelters and to any urban furniture.
Do not park on pavements if this obstructs pedestrians.
Do not park in loading or unloading areas, at zebra crossings, against elements adjoining building facades, by parking places reserved for people with reduced mobility or by Bicing stations.
Do not park in places where parking is prohibited, such as in front of public premises, emergency exits, buildings where parking is not recommended in order to ensure public safety, or health centres, to facilitate patient access.

What is left to be said about the Loch Ness Monster? So much has been written, speculated, and fabricated whole cloth about the strange creature purported to haunt the lake in Scotland from which it takes its name that it seems impossible to shed any new light on the legend of the Loch Ness Monster.
The 1987 spoof film Amazon Women on the Moon even had a segment (jokingly) speculating that the monster—or Nessie as it is more casually known—was in fact the infamous Jack the Ripper. What more could you add to that?
So, is the Loch Ness Monster real? The jury is still out, though most experts agree that, if there is in fact anything unusual at all in Loch Ness, it probably isn't a monster, or a leftover plesiosaur, or an "elephant squid," or any of the other fanciful explanations that have been lobbed about over the years. If nothing else, with reported sightings going back a hundred years or more, Nessie would have to be getting up in years by now if it did exist.
While George Spicer's sighting may have popularized the myth of the Loch Ness Monster, it wasn't the first time that strange sightings were associated with the highland lake. In fact, tales of unusual creatures in the water go back as far as a hagiography of Saint Columba, written in 565 CE.
This account of the Life of St. Columba, as it is called, details an encounter between the saint and a "water beast" in the nearby River Ness. When Saint Columba encountered some locals burying a man who had been slain by the beast, he went to confront the creature himself, sending one of his followers to swim across the river. When the beast approached, Saint Columba made the sign of the cross and told the beast to "Go back at once," at which time the beast retreated.
While believers have used this tale to bolster their claims of a strange creature living in the lake, skeptics are quick to point out that such stories are not exactly uncommon in hagiographies. And even if the creature in the Life of St. Columba really was the Loch Ness Monster, that would make Nessie old indeed by 1933, let alone the present day.
By far the most famous image of the Loch Ness Monster is a blurry photo as synonymous with cryptozoology as any grainy shot of Bigfoot. Popularly known as the "surgeon's photograph," it originally appeared in the Daily Mail in 1934 and has been attributed to a London gynecologist named Robert Kenneth Wilson. Today, the photograph is widely considered a hoax, though it remains the most "classic" representation of Nessie on film.
In April of 2016, a diving robot sent into the loch by Norwegian firm Kongsberg Maritime as part of the Loch Ness Project, did, indeed, find a monster down there, just not the one that many cryptid enthusiasts were hoping for.
Instead, the robot, which was searching the floor of the lake as part of a project partially financed by VisitScotland, found a model that was intended for use in the 1970 film The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes. Unfortunately for filmmakers, when the life-size model of the Loch Ness Monster was placed into the water of the lake, it sank to the bottom, requiring the use of a miniature in the actual film.
Still from The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes.
While the discovery of a model version of the Loch Ness Monster at the bottom of the Scottish lake might not have been what Nessie fans were hoping for from the expedition, the news made a nice treat for less credulous fans of cryptozoology, not to mention film historians.
Could it be that a strange and particularly elusive creature still lurks in the dark waters of Loch Ness? We guess anything's possible, but most experts consider it very unlikely. In 2003, the BBC searched the loch with 600 sonar beams as part of a special called Searching for the Loch Ness Monster. Unfortunately, the search didn't find anything large enough to be the fabled Loch Ness Monster.
Of course, it also didn't turn up the model from The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, which we now know was down there all along, so who can say for sure?

I meet my namesake Amanda Fleming, an LA actress who found her rock band father after 16 Sudden years in Rochdale
Last Wednesday, I got an e-mail. It read:
I have a film, Titans of Newark. Being a fellow Fleming, I was wondering if you could do me the honour and help with creating a buzz about it. I play the goddess Hera and it is on at the Short Film Corner during the Cannes Film Festival in May.
Amanda Fleming

I looked at the film trailer on YouTube and I met Amanda at the National Film Theatre yesterday, but we barely talked about the film.
"My mum was very young when she had me," said Amanda. "She was just turned 18. I was conceived in the summer of 1969. What can I say? He was in a band. She was a bit of a hippie. Apparently my father was in his early 20s and in a rock band which had a one-hit wonder. About four years later, my mother ended up marrying someone else. I was brought up by my grandparents in Rochdale; they legally adopted me, so my aunties became my sisters.
"By the time I was 16, I was sick and tired of asking my mother who my real father was. I think, at various times, she told me his name was Bob, James and lots of other names and eventually I said: I'm not speaking to you ever again unless you tell me the truth. She told me he was called Ian but not his surname and she told me: He's red-haired like you.
"So, one day, I decided Right! I'm going to find out who he is. I set off at five in the morning. I knew he was called Ian, had red hair, looked a bit like me and lived somewhere in Sudden, which is an area of Rochdale.
"I was only 16. I didn't realise how big Sudden was. I got there about six in the morning. There are about 150 streets. I started on one side of Sudden and the first street I came to was called (Amanda told me the name of the street).
"I knocked on a door and, by this time, it was seven in the morning. It was a young couple. Luckily they were getting up for work. I said I'm looking for my real father and I told them He's called Ian, he's got red hair, he was in a band and he lives somewhere in Sudden.
"They said: Sorry. He's not here. We haven't been here very long in this street. So I spent the entire day knocking on ten doors in every street.
"By about 6.30 at night, I was distraught. I thought: I'm never going to find him. What am I doing? What am I thinking of? I started crying. I was about to give up and there was an Old People's Home that's shut down since and I saw there was a small pathway to another street and I thought: I wonder if I've been on that street? And it was the street I'd first gone to. But it was the other end of that street and I was about to give up but I thought I'll try one more time and I knocked on a door and an old couple opened it.
"I was crying.
"They said: Hello. You alright, then?
"I said: I've spent all day – cry, cry – Nobody knows who he is – cry. cry – My father.
"Oh sweetheart, they said. What's his last name?
"I said: I don't know. All I know is he was in a band, he's got red hair, he's called Ian and…
"Oh, that's Ian and his brother Alan, they said. They're not living there any more, but his parents are still there at No 16.
"So I ran to No 16, banged on the door and this old lady came out. She looked right at me and said: You're Amanda, aren't you?
"Apparently my aunts had taken me at 18 months old to say: Hey! You need to tell your son he has a daughter. He was away on a three-year tour with his band in Europe. He was doing really well and so he didn't know anything about it and they wanted to keep it quiet because they didn't want it to interfere with his life. But they'd matured since then and they were a lot more laid back and relaxed, so they said: Come on in.
"I was really shocked. I thought: I've actually found them!
"They got on the phone to my dad and he came down and I think he must have asked me about 25 times: So, how are you? That's all he seemed to ask me.
Amanda at the National Film Theatre in London yesterday
"And, when I found my dad, that was my excuse to go fully into entertainment. He was an entertainer. So I went to Oldham Theatre Workshop and went to drama school. After that, I did a lot of theatre, a lot of Rep, worked for the Cambridge Shakespeare Company and a lot of other things.
"Independent film was just starting to pick up in the early 1990s so I did that and I also did corporates and bits on TV and radio and worked for a company called Absolute Murder that did improv theatre murder mysteries. Then I started up my own theatre company DeProfundis Productions."
"Why DeProfundis?" I asked.
"I thought it was a good name for a company which is new writing, semi-Gothic productions with maybe a bit of sci-fi mixed in there. I grew up loving Hammer House of Horror and I loved the idea of bringing Gothic theatre to the public. So I wrote an hour-long semi-Gothic interpretation of Elizabeth Báthory's story."
"She's the one who bathed in virgins' blood…" I said.
"Yes," said Amanda, "she was reputed to have murdered 650 people over 30 years."
"So you learned about improvising murders," I said, "and then you wrote about a woman mass murderer. That's rather scary."
"Yes," laughed Amanda, "but I also used to do touring pantomimes all the time. I loved it. It's the meat-and-potatoes of theatre training. And then someone said: Have thou ever thought of doing comedy adult pantos? So, in 2005, I set up Carry-on-Antics Pantomimes.
Amanda – Oh yes it is! – in a saucy Carry On type UK panto
"My dad said he was proud of me for doing that but he didn't come to see any of the shows because he said: I don't want to see you in that way. There was no nudity. It was just tongue-in-cheek, very slapstick, very Carry On. It wasn't that rude. I arranged a six-week tour; five shows a week. We did Big Dick Whittington with his pussy and, the next year, Little Red Romping Hood and Hot Cinders. It was pure comedy."
Amanda went to Los Angeles in 2007.

"I got a three-year visa and I was only going to use it to go over for the pilot season, which is January 10th to round about April – three months of intense auditions for episodes in up-and-coming productions and for new characters in already-running productions.
"Then I was going to come back to the UK, because I was supposed to be getting booked to arrange a third year of pantos – a 10-week tour. But that year – 2007 – the recession hit and only three of the venues re-booked. So I stayed in the US and signed with a US agent and, for the first six months, it was mostly getting my face known."
"What's your pitch?" I asked. "I'm the new Helen Mirren?"

"Someone did say," laughed Amanda, "that I'm a younger Helen Mirren mixed with Meryl Streep… but then someone also said I was like Bette Midler!"
"This Titans of Newark film," I said, "which we haven't talked about. It was filmed in 2012?"
"The latter end, yes," said Amanda. "It was edited up to the beginning of 2013, then went round all the festivals. The budget on Titans of Newark was quite low – it was done as a student project – but it's been winning awards at lots of film festivals. And now I'm going over to Cannes in May to plug it even more."
"As a kid, did you want to perform or be famous?" I asked. "They're different."
Not bad for a young girl from Rochdale…
"When you first leave drama school," said Amanda. "you're all Ooh! I'm going to be famous! but it doesn't work like that. It's a lot of hard work and plugging yourself. You gotta do a lot of PR and get your face in as many places as possible. Now I'd rather people come to me and say I really respect you as an actor and as a business person and entrepreneur. I'd rather have that sort of pat on the back than celebrity. Though, of course, if opportunity knocks – Great!"
The 26-minute Titans of Newark movie is viewable online.
Always a pleasure to meet a Fleming.

Ubuntu Phone Review (BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition): Great OS, Average Hardware
Author: Andrew | Posted: February 10, 2015
After years of development, the first Ubuntu phone is finally here (Europe only) and while the hardware is average at best, the OS is a breath of fresh air, bringing innovations like scopes and "magic edges", designed not just to be different, but in many ways, better than the current trends.
Before proceeding, note that the phone targets early adopters and if you just want WhatsApp or Skype, Ubuntu phone isn't for you just yet, as these services aren't yet available.
Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition is the first Ubuntu phone and it was made in partnership with BQ, a Spanish producer of smartphones, tablets, electronic readers, and 3d printers.
Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition specs:
Screen: 4.5", 540x960 resolution
Dimensions: 137 x 67 x 9 mm / 123 g weight
CPU: Quad Core Cortex A7 up to 1.3 GHz MediaTek
GPU: Mali 400 up to 500 MHz
Camera: 8 Mpx rear interpolated (Dual-flash and autofocus), 5 Mpx front
Internal memory: 8 GB
Battery: LiPo 2150 mAh
MicroSD slot, up to 32 GB
2G GSM (850/900/1800/1900)
3G HSPA+ (900/2100)
GPS and A-GPS
LED notification, Dolby® sound technology, FM radio, microphone, noise canceller
Hardware-wise, the phone doesn't come with anything special: from the plastic case and average screen (4.5'' 540x960 resolution) to the CPU (1.3 GHz MediaTek Quad Core Cortex A7), internal memory (8 GB) and battery (2150 mAh), everything's basically unremarkable however, at €169.90, it's a pretty good deal.
For someone who cares more about the OS / Ubuntu, like me, the mid-range hardware is not a deal-breaker, not even close, but what does frustrate me hardware-related is the camera: the pictures are decent but could be better and furthermore, photos taken with the flash are too bright and basically unusable (here's an example), which is kind of a major inconvenience. Update: the too bright (flash) photos issue was fixed recently - here's a new photo.
The plastic case and the ~2cm bezel underneath the display (Aquaris E4.5 was initially an Android phone and this space served for Android's home/back buttons) are more reasons why the phone itself is a bit disappointing. But Canonical had to start somewhere and while not perfect, Aquaris E4.5 is a decent phone overall - it doesn't lag, comes with dual sim, the speakers are good and it's the perfect size, at least for me.
What makes the Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition special is of course the OS, which can run HTML5 web apps as well as native QML apps.
You'll find apps in any mobile OS but Canonical also implemented scopes, an innovative (and this is to be appreciated, because innovations nowadays are Android copying iOS, iOS copying Windows Phone and so on - well, more or less anyway) feature thanks to which the content from multiple sources can be displayed in one place - you basically have the content that interests you in one place, when you need it.
For instance, the main screen consists of Today's scope which includes the date with the sunrise and sunset information, weather, upcoming holidays, upcoming events, recent calls, messages, headlines from various sources and more. Each of these can be enabled or disabled, so Today's scope will only display the information you need, which is pretty cool.
The same goes for other scopes - for instance, the Music scope includes sources such as 7digital, Grooveshark, SoundCloud, YouTube and Songkick, but if you only use YouTube, you can disable the others. Or, you can completely disable the Music scope if you don't plan on using it.
I must confess that the scopes are actually my favorite Ubuntu Phone feature, even though I wasn't a fan of it on the desktop, at first because it was slow and then because some pretty important sources like YouTube were missing. But that's not the case with the phone and on top of that, the scopes are actually more customizable on the phone than on the desktop.
However, while the whole scopes idea is great, the implementation is not ideal because they are pretty limited in functionality and what's most important, the content is mostly not displayed in the scope itself and must be opened in the web browser. For instance, you can listen to single tracks from say SoundCloud, but you can't add songs to the queue or anything like that and furthermore, YouTube clips or Grooveshark songs must be opened in the browser. Pretty much the same goes for news articles: you can read an excerpt but to read the whole article, you must open it in the web browser.
While the phone is scope-centric, it does run apps as well and by default, it ships with native browser, music, camera, gallery, media player and calculator apps (along with phone/messaging/contacts apps of course) with more available via Ubuntu Store (which can be used to install both scopes and apps):
For services like Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or Google Maps, Ubuntu Phone uses web apps, which even though integrate with the OS, are not as nice as the official applications for Android or iOS (for instance, in my opinion, the Facebook mobile website is not exactly pretty).
Of course, the apps are as beautiful and featureful as those services' mobile website and until Facebook, Google, etc. build their own applications for Ubuntu Phone, that's not going to change. That's why I'm not a big fan of web apps and while I understand their utility, I really hope they will be replaced by real apps at some point.
Unfortunately, there are also some services that are missing from the Ubuntu Store, like Whatsapp (but Telegram, a nice alternative to Whatsapp, is available), Skype, Instagram (there is an Instagram scope that displays the Instagram feed though) and that's going to be a major downside for some, but then again, right now, Ubuntu Phone isn't targeted at the masses, but at early adopters / Ubuntu enthusiasts and I don't know about you, but I can live without them (well, I don't have Whatsapp, Skype and Instagram installed on my Android phone either). For now.
"Magic edges"
Unlike Android or iOS for example, Ubuntu Phone doesn't make use of any hardware buttons and instead, it uses all four screen edges for navigation, app switching, settings and indicators, this being yet another feature which feels natural and most importantly, very useful.
Using the left Ubuntu desktop-like launcher, you can easily launch your favorite applications, pin and unpin apps and see what's running. With a swipe to the right, you can see a preview of all running apps, switch or close them:
The bottom edge holds the settings: when you're in the the scopes for instance, a swipe from the bottom allows configuring which scopes to display, or in Contacts, swipe to add a new contact.
Quick access indicators are at the top and if you don't fully open the drawer, you can navigate between the Time & Date, Battery, Sound, Network, Notifications and so on, with a left or right swipe, this being yet another feature which I really like and if I were to guess, I'd say we're likely to see it in other mobile operating systems at some point.
Conclusions and how to get your own Ubuntu Phone
There's much more to say about this very first Ubuntu phone and especially about the OS, like click packages and the fast, secure transactional updates, the cool default browser and other default apps and so on, but I don't want to bore you with all the details.
Overall, Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition is a decent phone with a very interesting and innovative OS which I really hope will succeed. Not with this device of course, it's too rough and not for the average consumer, but the potential is there and while it's risky, in a market dominated by giants like Apple and Google, if Canonical does everything right, this could be the beginning of something big.
To get a better idea on what I'm talking about in this article, I've recorded a video showing some of the phone's features:
(direct video link; for more videos, subscribe to our YouTube channel)
Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition will be available in the coming days on BQ.com, through a series of "flash sales" and it will cost 169.90 Euros (~ $193 / £127). The exact date, time and URL of the flash sales will be announced on the Ubuntu and BQ Twitter accounts as well as the Ubuntu Facebook and Google+ pages starting this week, so keep an eye on them if you want to be among the first to get an Ubuntu phone.
Update: the BQ Ubuntu Phone is now available for general purchase in the European Union.
Update 2: another BQ Ubuntu phone is now available for purchase in Europe - Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Edition (€199.90).

Q: ElaaticSearch - extract info between tags in the Highlights field We have a field in our ElasticSearch index called Terms Matched and we populate that field at query time with the values that are tagged in the Highlights field of a given result.  The Highlights field is derived from our field called Free Text, which contains unstructured data.  The query is not a match phrase query - it looks for the words in the query to be within a certain distance of each other via a span-multi query.
So right now, an example could look like this:
Query: John Smith

Result:

Free Text: "Once upon a time, John Alexander Smith went to the market..."
Highlights: "Once upon a time, John Alexander Smith went to the market..."
Terms Matched: John Smith

Currently, the Terms Matched field is just a concatenation of the tags from Highlights.  What we want to do is have the Terms Matched field return the tags, AND anything between the tags, if there is more than one tag -  so in the above example the Terms Matched field would show "John Alexander Smith."
How could we accomplish this in ElasticSearch?

A: So I think this is working as you would expect.
This is mapping with shingles token filter configured. Shingles will produce combinations of searchable tokens (2 to 4 tokens per shingle).
PUT /highlights
{
  "settings": {
    "analysis": {
      "analyzer": {
        "my_custom_analyzer": {
          "type": "custom",
          "tokenizer": "standard",
          "filter": [
            "lowercase",
            "asciifolding",
            "my_shingle"
          ]
        }
      },
      "filter": {
        "my_shingle": {
          "type": "shingle",
          "max_shingle_size": 4,
          "min_shingle_size": 2
        }
      }
    }
  },
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "content": {
        "type": "text",
        "search_analyzer": "standard",
        "analyzer": "my_custom_analyzer"
      }
    }
  }
}

Dummy document
PUT /highlights/_doc/1
{
  "content": "Once upon a time, John Alexander Smith went to the market..."
}

And basic search query
GET /highlights/_search
{
  "query": {
    "match": {
      "content": "John Smith"
    }
  },
  "highlight": {
    "fields": {
      "content": {
        "type": "plain"
      }
    }
  }
}

This is the response, with correctly (hopefully) highlighted text:
{
  "took" : 46,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 1,
    "successful" : 1,
    "skipped" : 0,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : {
      "value" : 1,
      "relation" : "eq"
    },
    "max_score" : 0.8111373,
    "hits" : [
      {
        "_index" : "highlights",
        "_type" : "_doc",
        "_id" : "1",
        "_score" : 0.8111373,
        "_source" : {
          "content" : "Once upon a time, John Alexander Smith went to the market..."
        },
        "highlight" : {
          "content" : [
            "Once upon a time, John Alexander Smith went to the market..."
          ]
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

Yet again, you might need to tweak this quite a lot, but this should put you on right track.


Fuqua cuts to the chase with no frivolity. McCall's motive (loner trying to save young prostitute, seeing goodness in her) is reminiscent of DeNiro's Travis in Taxi Driver. The movie's climax in is a bit drawn out but all said and done, Washington and Csokas are thoroughly convincing and if you're an action junkie, you'll surely get your money's worth.
You really don't have to do much to make an action flick work. Give us a good guy to root for and a bad guy to despise, and we are happy. The Equalizer does exactly that. You will certainly enjoy the film with your friends. But be prepared to sit through an excruciatingly long second half.
