Nissan Ambition 2030 plan detailed
Nissan is showing us a glimpse of its future with the unveil of a new plan to develop its electric cars. The plan is called Ambition 2030 and reveals a list of four concepts.
Over the next ten years, Nissan will deliver exciting, electrified vehicles and technological innovations while expanding its operations globally. The vision supports Nissan's goal to be carbon neutral across the life cycle of its products by fiscal year 2050.
As a pioneer of electric vehicles (EVs), Nissan has democratized EVs and invested in building charging infrastructure and energy management. By placing electrification at the core of the company's long-term strategy, Nissan Ambition 2030, the company aims to accelerate the electrification of its vehicle lineup and rate of technology innovation with investments of 2 trillion yen over the next five years.
SEE ALSO: The future Nissan Z sports car was officially teased
Based on customer demands for a diverse range of exciting vehicles, Nissan will introduce 23 new electrified models, including 15 new EVs by fiscal year 2030 aiming for an electrification mix of more than 50% globally across the Nissan and INFINITI brands.
Nissan aims to launch EV with its proprietary all-solid-state batteries (ASSB) by fiscal year 2028 and ready a pilot plant in Yokohama as early as fiscal year 2024. With the introduction of breakthrough ASSB, Nissan will be able to expand its EV offerings across segments and offer more dynamic performance. By reducing charging time to one-third, ASSBs will make EVs more efficient and accessible. Further, Nissan expects ASSB to bring the cost of battery packs down to $75 per kWh by fiscal year 2028 and aims to bring it further down to $65 per kWh to achieve cost parity between EV and gasoline vehicles in the future.
SEE ALSO: Nissan e-NV200 Winter Camper is a concept for this time of the year
Nissan seeks to establish a global battery supply system to meet growing customer vehicle demand and support the growing number of EVs in use. Working with its partners, Nissan intends to increase its global battery production capacity to 52 GWh by fiscal year 2026, and 130 GWh by fiscal year 2030.

1 Samuel 15:26 But Samuel refused: "No, I can't come alongside you in this. You rejected GOD's command. Now GOD has rejected you as king over Israel." But Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you; for you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel." But Samuel replied, "I will not go back with you! Since you have rejected the LORD's command, he has rejected you as king of Israel." And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD hath rejected thee from being king over Israel. But Samuel said to Saul, "I won't go back with you. You rejected the LORD's command, and now he rejects you as king of Israel." And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee; for thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, and Jehovah hath rejected thee from being king over Israel. But Samuel said to him, "I will not go back with you. You have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you as king over Israel!" But Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you; for you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel." And Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you. For you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel."
And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee; for thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, and Jehovah hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
And Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you. For you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel."


The following article presents the commercialization strategies for several of PERFORMER's competitors, including: pricing policy, communication channels, technical specificity of the selected products and support offered to the customers. As it was identified by ASM – Market Research and Analysis Centre, the commercialization strategies prepared and implemented by analyzed competitors include several similarities; both in terms of price, technical opportunities offered by the product and maintenance services that improve efficiency of installed appliances. Keeping these facts in mind, the similar solutions and offers have been described in the following text in order to show how the PERFORMER solution can be sold in a competitive way and at a competitive price. The text focuses on the strategies implemented by five PERFORMER competitors.
The commercialization strategy of the first competitor is based on a fee which includes the scope of work to get the system implemented and customer staff trained. After the initial purchase (of a perpetual license), there is an annual fee for the system Maintenance Agreement (ECMA). The ECMA is included in annual licensing, and provides access to technical support, regular software upgrades, and access to data services (Weather Data, Greenhouse Gas factors, ENERGY STAR interface)".
As the system provider emphasizes, "pricing is highly dependent on a number of factors such as total number of meters, advanced features required, and professional services needed". Therefore, the provider offers two different commercialization scenarios, tailored to the expectations and needs of potential customers.
The system has 2 distinct service offers, the first being, Express, which is aimed at those with less complex needs to manage utility bills and energy data. The software is based on hosted solution and Web-based SaaS environment which can be used by an unlimited number of users. In that case, the basic price starts at €2,500 per year for up to 100 meters. The initial first-year purchase of the system includes two main types of fee; a Software License, and Professional Start-Up Services. A sales representative can work with the customer to execute a formal agreement with license and professional service terms.
• initial bill processing services, or any other service required for a successful system deployment.
The Enterprise package can be used by an unlimited number of users and is offered via two technical versions; an "on-premise" local version, or a third party hosted web-based application (equipped with SQL Server Database).
• forecasts consumption and costs for the coming months.
The second package, Professional, is aimed at multi-site projects and costs €995 per year. It can be installed in an unlimited number of locations, but the basic offer allows potential user to gather data from 20 data points. As in the case of Starter offering, each additional data point can be included at €3.50 per month. The Professional package provides customers with all the options offered by the Starter package, but additionally, it includes advanced analytical engine and multi-site management functions.
The company also offers a fully customizable Enterprise version of the service, which can be adapted for bigger projects and installed in an unlimited number of locations and data points (the price is bespoke to the project, and is negotiated between provider and customer).
The software provided by this company is offered in two versions; for single, and multifamily/commercial buildings. The first version, Single Family Software, can be installed in buildings with 1-4 dwelling units and costs €520. The system is able to aggregate improvements into packages, compare these packages and define improvements from onboard libraries. Thanks to that, the application provides customer with comprehensive information on potential energy savings in building.
The second version, Multi Family Software, costs €1550 and can be installed in multifamily and small commercial buildings. This version includes all functions offered by the Single Family Software, but is tailored to the greater needs of owners of larger, more complex buildings. It is worth noting that the license is associated with a single instance, on a single computer and the system will function on that computer for as long as the computer works. The license includes one full year of support (but the support is an additional €210 per year).
As the provider emphasizes, each Single or Multi Family license is "eligible for one year of technical support and software upgrades. Licenses must be renewed each year to be eligible for support, upgrades, and transfers, additional fees apply for licenses not upgraded within 2 years".
The fourth system is offered in three versions; Entry, Pro and Enterprise. The Entry version is free to trial for one site, and includes functions aimed at tracking and visualizing energy use, bill auditing and validation, forecasting energy spend and energy budget for the next 5 years. The system is also able to create a strategic energy overview, and implement greenhouse gas tracking.
The Pro package costs €360 per year, per site and includes several additional options; quarterly reports, annual energy audits, benchmarking against peers, weather normalization system, energy tariff analysis, contract and tariff management, improved bill accuracy and carbon footprint breakdown can be found. The system is also able to eliminate unnecessary charges and penalties.
The most advanced version of this system is Enterprise, and costs €999 per year, per site and outsources all energy management, providing the customer with detailed analysis and priority support. The Enterprise package includes all the options offered by the Pro version, but in addition it is able to create detailed interval data analysis, import historical energy data, provide customer with energy investment decision support and building performance comparison. It is also worth mentioning that the Enterprise version includes certification scheme for controlled buildings.
• unlimited users at admin level (user roles require Standard Access).
The Extended version of this system offers not only all functions mentioned above, but also automatic data feeds to the customer account. Moreover, it allows access to Analytics, Reporting, Project Management. The system also assign different access levels and sites to users in the customer organisation. Standard Access starts at €210 per month. Pricing for automatic data feeds starts at €2,5/month.
How to commercialize the PERFORMER solution?
As the presented specifications suggest, there are several common features of the commercialization strategies implemented by the PERFORMER competitors. All described companies offer at least two versions of products tailored to the needs, expectations and financial possibilities of different stakeholders, such us small building owners, multifamily building users and commercial investors. Selected companies provide customers with support services or free versions of applications in order to show the most important opportunities of the Building Energy Management Systems and to maximize financial benefits which can be achieved by the final users. The system providers often highlight that their products are able to visualize and analyze consumption data from all devices, observe energy consumption trends and analyze dependencies between variables. Although prices of the systems are different, the final cost always depends on the number of controlled buildings or their size. It suggests that PERFORMER commercialization strategy should take into account various scenarios which would allow the project consortium to build flexible relationship with different types of customers.

Take these precautionary steps to ensure the winter weather does not leave you with an unexpected surprise.
#1 – CLEAN YOUR GUTTERS. Removing leaves and twigs allows water to pass freely and prevent build-up and leaks.
#2 – CHECK YOUR WINDOWS AND DOORFRAMES. Are they properly insulated? Making sure there are no leaks around windows and doorjambs will limit any rain coming in…and your warm air from escaping! Invest in some caulk and weather strips at your local hardware store.
#3 – GET YOUR CHIMNEY SWEPT. Who doesn't love sitting around a warm, crackling fire? Don't ruin the moment with a smoked-filled living room. A clean chimney and fireplace will bring family and friends around.
#4 – TUNE UP YOUR HEATER. While cuddling up in blankets is a great way to spend a rainy afternoon, sitting in teeth chattering, shivering cold is not a good idea. Do a test run to ensure you're all set for the winter weather.
#5 – MAKE ROOM FOR WINTER COATS. Clean out closest and entryways for those winter coats that take up extra room.
#6 – CHECK THE LOCKS. Make sure locks on all doors and windows work and are properly in place.
Don't get caught off-guard! Your preparations today will make for a smoother, more comfortable winter.

Phly on a PHIC phactory wall
It's that time of year again. I began scouting for a place to hide during the cold Johannesburg winter.
You wouldn't believe some of the places I have had to endure in the past. Last winter, a few of my friendzzzzzzzzz invited me to spend the season in an abandoned Piki Tup garbage truck. Gross. Dirt has never been my thing. I'm not your fly of the mill Diptera. And yes it's true… some of these OCD tendencies have cost me my social life, and they might be the reason I haven't found an eligible mate yet … but I can't compromise on my principles. My mom keeps telling me I need help. She says this 'mental illness' of mine is a total buzzz kill. She should talk…. As far as I'm concerned, she is completely fly polar herself. 500 kids will do that to you.
Anyways, after a long summer on a beautiful dairy farm just on the outskirts of the buzzling city, I caught wind of a dairy delivery. In no time at all, I found myself in this strange little phactory with a PH.
At first, I nearly froze my antenna off in there. It was colder inside then it was outdoors!! I thought to myself; "What kind of sorcery is this?!?". I asked a couple of mosquitos outside that had just came back from a night out of drinking. They looked at each other, laughed, and said "LG, man… Life's Good!", and went to bed. What a silly bunch of unhelpful pests.
But I was intrigued. I had to find out more… I asked the spider in the tile cracks to make me a hair net, and I went back in.

As a model, I have gone through zillions of blog posts from various well-known bloggers and widely recognised models. Quite a few of them are blogging new items of designers but they also put together fabulous outfits calling them "Look of the day".
I don't quite like copying others, but I think that this is a fantastic concept that will help everyone who goes through my posts and myself by practising my styling skills and creativity. I do appreciate any feedback, so please feel free to comment below or contact me in-world or by email.


The two-day conference aims to present a comprehensive, comparative appraisal of the structural features underpinning a human universal concern, uncertainty. This concern was commonly expressed in early text cultures through divinatory practices. For the purposes of this conference, divination will be understood as an activity devoted to uncovering the hidden significance of events and signs, with the latter being either directly observed in nature or deliberately obtained. We intend to broaden the widely accepted concept of divination as the mere act of foretelling the future. Such mantic activities may include, but need not be limited to, communication with transcendent realities conceived both as divine beings or as universal cosmic order.
Our investigation will focus on early text cultures, defined as pre-modern cultural contexts whose mantic practices can be reconstructed through the aid of written texts and archaeological material. In particular, we are keen to explore the importance of texts such as divination manuals, almanacs, oracular procedure and prescriptive texts, divination records or archives, and the close correlation between transmitted and excavated sources.
In this regard, our main references are La divination. Études recueillies, edited by A. Caquot and M. Leibovici (Paris, 1968), which offers an account of divinatory activities in a wide range of both ancient and modern societies; as for what concerns the socio-epistemological dimension of the mantic practice, we mainly refer to Divination et rationalité, edited by J.P. Vernant (Paris, 1974) and Divination and Prediction in Early China and Ancient Greece, by L.A. Raphals (Cambridge, 2013). More recent studies on divination focussed either on specific issues (Divination and the Interpretation of Signs in the Ancient World, edited by A. Annus, Chicago 2010) or on a limited geographical area (Coping with the Future: Theories and Practices in East Asia, edited by M. Lackner, Leiden-Boston 2017) and an over-arching perspective on mantic practices has not been provided since the publication of the above-mentioned volume edited by A. Caquot. However, in the past few decades, new archaeological and palaeographical sources have made it possible to reconsider several aspects of divination. For instance, the discovery of inscriptions related to the socalled shuzi gua 數字卦 (lit. 'numerical divinatory symbol') has significantly contributed toward a new understanding of yarrow stalk divination, whilst the emergence of lots from the Greek sanctuary of Dodona shed new light on how queries were addressed to the oracle and on the oracle's response.
We already cover China, Rome and Etruria, Greece and the Celts, and our confirmed key-note speakers will be Professor Robert Parker (Oxford) and Professor Bernhard Maier (Tübingen). We are looking for contributors on the surviving corpora available for Mesopotamia, ancient Egypt, Israel, pre-modern Islamic areas, ancient India, Japan, as well as Medieval Europe, covering the Slavs and the Germans.
How is divination defined and conceptualised in each society?
What are the sources and texts through which we can reconstruct how divination worked? How do different material supports affect the ways divination is performed?
Who were the practitioners? Were they professionals or amateurs? Did they have connections with a temple or a court or were they independent? What was their cultural background?
What were the techniques employed by these practitioners in interpreting divinatory signs, either natural or deliberately created?
Are there any typological similarities in a set of practices which represent a shared feature among most ancient societies? If that be the case, is it possible to bring out distinctive aspects peculiar to each society within the complexity of the mantic art?
The event will be held in Oxford on 24-25 June 2019 at the University of Oxford China Centre. We welcome up to 500-word proposals for 45 minutes talks which should be sent to domenico.giordani@sjc.ox.ac.uk and flaminia.pischedda@pmb.ox.ac.uk by 26 April 2019.
We expect a monograph or a special volume on a journal to emerge from the conference discussion, conceived as an up-to-date, cross-cultural overview of divination in early text cultures. We are ultimately looking to make a decisive contribution in the field of religious and socio-cultural studies, ideally constituting both a useful tool for advanced scholars and a general reference for those who are approaching this area for the first time.
The Conference is sponsored by the ARHC-TORCH Grad Fund, the Centre for Manuscript and Text Cultures at The Queen's College (CMTC), Pembroke College, and supported by the University of Oxford China Centre.
Organised by China's Health, Environment and Welfare (CHEW) Research Group. Hosted and funded by the China Centre with support from the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies.
More than five years into Xi's leadership, and less than two years until the target date of 2020 set by the Chinese Communist Party to achieve a 'moderately prosperous society', time has come to take stock of the country's evolution. What are the challenges faced by present-day China, how have they been addressed in recent years and how may they evolve in the future?
The Conference started on Friday 12 October at 2:45 with a keynote talk by Prof. Genia Kostka from the Free University of Berlin on 'Tightening the grip: environmental governance under Xi Jinping'. A roundtable on social activism in today's China moderated by Prof. Anna Lora-Wainwright followed. On Saturday 13 October, several panels enabled conference participants to continue exploring how the political and institutional changes carried out by the Xi administration have impacted the way in which Chinese actors mobilise and engage with environmental, health and welfare issues across administrative, geographic and technological boundaries.

There is much current interest in causes of globalization and international contacts. Although the process of globalization has sped up considerably over the last decades, recent research has suggested that the modern and the ancient world may not be fundamentally different as far as mechanisms and preconditions of inter-cultural contact are concerned. Prehistoric and early historic communities can therefore serve as useful case studies to reflect on general mechanisms of inter-cultural exchange that are of great interest to modern day societies as well.
The conference on "Cultural Contacts in Ancient Worlds: Theories and Case Studies" held at Oxford, 24 to 26 March 2017, brings together researchers from various fields in the humanities and social sciences to gain deeper insight into mechanisms of and reasons for inter-group exchange across Eurasia in historic and prehistoric periods.

Graduate students are invited to submit abstracts for the inaugural University of Oxford China Humanities Graduate Conference 2017, which takes the theme of 'the everyday' in the Chinese context as its point of departure. We welcome papers that work with modern and pre-modern subject material and from all the humanistic disciplines, including history, literary and cultural studies, history of art, film and media studies, philosophy, human geography, anthropology, musicology, politics, and religion.
This conference asks applicants to draw on their graduate research to critically engage with practices of the everyday across Greater China. How has the everyday been articulated, invented, transcended, and resisted throughout the history and culture of the region? How have marginalised individuals and groups negotiated their everyday practices within wider structures of power? What does everyday creativity look like? And where do material objects, landscapes, and animals fit in to our perception of the everyday? As a theme, 'the everyday' in China has often been shortchanged in favour of so-called grander narratives of history and power. Over the course of this conference, we aim to remedy this and build up a picture of China which is framed by the local and quotidian.
The CHEW (China's Health, Environment and Welfare) Conference 2016, 'Visible and Invisible Challenges: Transformations in Contemporary China', took place on 20-21 May in the China Centre and Green Templeton College. Scholars gathered to discuss several key topics including 'Environmental Activism', 'Waste and Society', 'China and the World', 'Society, Politics and Exclusion', 'Safety and the Environment', 'Resources, Policies and Practices', 'Civil Society', and 'Urban Challenges'. The opening lecture was given by Professor Jane Duckett, University of Glasgow.
'Digital Culture in Contemporary China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong' is taking place in the China Centre on 17-19 December 2015. To register, please contact Elisabeth Forster (elisabeth.forster@history.ox.ac.uk) indicating which days you would like to attend. Registration is free. Please see programme details on the China Centre website.
The 2015 CHEW Conference aims to bring together academics, policy practitioners and other experts from diverse disciplinary backgrounds working on a range of contemporary issues relevant to China's health, environment and welfare. Our focus is on policy reforms recently implemented in these areas and their observed or likely effects, and also on suggestions for new reforms required to meet the challenges.
The one-day conference will be held on Saturday, 23 May at Oxford. On the evening of Friday, 22 May, there will be a specially featured roundtable discussion during which prominent China scholars will offer their thoughts on the theme of the conference. All conference participants are invited to the discussion.

These hand-sewn masks look cool and benefit local relief efforts
Order one on Instagram for $30 or less.
Steph Feini Yin wears one of Sam Merkt's handmade fashion accessories
Kieran Alessi / Courtesy Sam Merkt
Mar. 19, 2020, 8:30 a.m.
While self-quarantining inside her West Poplar home, Sam Merkt dug through her old sewing supplies and uncovered a years-old fabric that she had long since forgotten — a hilarious tablecloth-style print decorated with watermelons, hot dogs and hamburgers.
As a pandemic panicked the nation, she knew she had to make use of it.
Infused with a burst of inspiration, the 29-year-old after-school program director started sewing handmade face masks. At first, she admits they were kinda crappy.
"I had no idea what I was doing," Merkt said. "I made like four that looked awful. They were sloppy, and they didn't make sense."
But then she got the hang of it. Made from patterned fabrics and sometimes embroidered with anti-racist phrases, Merkt's handmade masks are now available for purchase — with proceeds set to go to a good cause.
To be clear, the masks aren't medical-grade. They're just fabric sewn to some strings that you can loop around your ears. But they can still be useful in helping keep bodily fluids from spreading. They're also meant to be fun.
"These masks are for aesthetic purposes," Merkt said. "And maybe for chronic nail biters and occasional nose pickers to prevent them from touching their faces."
For now, she's selling the masks on a sliding scale from $10 to $30 apiece. She's already gotten nine orders — mostly from friends — plus some independent donations. In total, Merkt has raised $325 so far.
The money will go to mutual aid relief funds in Philly, Merkt said. Recipients she's considering donating to include:
The Neighbors Helping Neighbors fund, started to help Philadelphians who are struggling during the COVID-19 outbreak
The Philadelphia Community Bail Fund
Prevention Point Philadelphia, using their Amazon wishlist
Queer and trans Philadelphians of color, via MOVES Philly
Masks in progress
Sam Merkt
Added bonus: These masks are machine washable and totally reusable, so they're good for the environment. Merkt recommends washing them with hot water and soap to help make sure they're clean.
There is, of course, the potential for coronavirus particles to get past this mask — plus the potential for packaging to get contaminated while it travels to your doorstep, although the World Health Organization has said that the potential for transmission of the virus via cardboard is low.
Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, the effectiveness of face masks at preventing the spread has come into question.
It's problematic if regular people buy so many of them that the supply for actual healthcare providers is limited. And some suggest that covering your face with fabric might inspire you to touch it more, which can make the problem worse.
But "some protection, even if imperfect, is better than none," one information professor wrote in the New York Times, especially if it prevents people from snatching up the legit masks that are desperately needed by doctors and nurses.
Merkt doesn't necessarily expect her homemade masks to help with any national shortage for healthcare workers. After all, she's only got enough fabric to make about 100 of them. But she hopes in the midst of a pandemic, they can at least make people feel better, including herself.
"This is a way to practice my own self care, practice sewing and be creative," she said, "[and] also to support folks."
Want one? You can order a handmade face mask — or donate to the cause — by DMing Merkt's Instagram page.

Andrew Scheer copycats Justin Trudeau's anti-Trump remarks for mainstream approval
Ezra LevantRebel Commander
On last night's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, we discussed how both Justin Trudeau and Andrew Scheer acted like political pundits and denounced Trump's mean words about #TheSquad.
Trudeau said that Trump's remarks are "completely unacceptable" and "should not be allowed in Canada."
We know his Liberals have been calling for censorship of social media and the reinstatement of Section 13.
However, what's almost as depressing as Trudeau's meddling with foreign affairs were the copycat comments by Conservative Party leader (and would-be Prime Minister) Andrew Scheer.

Obama's Social Media Warriors spent 9 months in Canada promoting the Drama Teacher . . . UNIFOR, Public Sector Unions, the inept far-left Canadian Media ALL promoted the inept Justin . . . The Eastern Establishment Media hated Harper . . . . after ALL he was from Calgary. They prefer the MO of the previous 4 PMs. ALL from Keybec and ALL worked for Power Corp.
2015 . . . the Year 39% of Canadians voted themselves Off the Island . . . . who needs Balanced Budgets and Surpluses anyway . . . when you can give Billions to the UN, the CBC, the FakeStream Media and Despotic Regimes around the globe.
Remember when . . . .
World's Richest Middle Class . . . NY Times
World's Best Reputation . . . Reputation Institute
Best Wage Growth in G7 Nations . . . 2007-2012
Best Oilfield Salaries in the World . . .
Best Oilfield Enviro Regs in the World . . . Harvard Bus School
Best Country to do Business . . . . Forbes
World's Best Debt to GDP Ratio , . . OECD
ALL of that is in the REAR VIEW Mirror today Canada . . . . as you wallow towards European Failed State Status.
@ Wick . . . . so using a far-left loon site to criticize the Fraser Institute is rational in your mind? Been reading the Fraser folks for years and find that most of their writings are conservative common-sense and usually backed up with sound Economics & Facts.
Unlike your loons who want to put "Gorebull Warming" as the top agenda in the upcoming election . . . LOL
Like no far-left marxist groups ever took any money from Wealthy Donors like Soros, Rockerfeller Foundation . . . etc.
In fact the Foundation has spent 100s of millions creating the disaster in the Cdn Oil Industry today . . . with the help of our "Idiot" PM and his radical buddy Butts.
100 car long oil trains coming down the Fraser Canyon seem to be OK with the unwashed and uninformed in BC these days.
Will Scheer be any better? I am not impressed, he is weak and feckless and will likely be Trudope Light . . not good for the country going forward I suspect.

scheer is a gutless globalist elite . there's no difference between him and turdo,i will be voting for the peoples party candidate in my riding and maybe we will get lucky and have a upset like trump did to the corrupt demonrats .

Glenn, always something to learn and fun to watch your 'take downs'. I think you are right about Andrew having a livelihood dog in this race.
People with no sense of humour, you know the type, they are mortally offended by words and think everything is racist? Ya those people, they should not watch this clip about Trumps tweet. Nope.

Now Andrew…I spoke hastily and out of turn…I am aquainted with a world class mathematician and man of impecable honour…he was once …early in his career…assigned to do a study on what percentage of hatchlings from a salmon hatchery operated by the government returned to the river where they were born…based on statistical sampling of tagged fish and DNA sampling of untagged fish he came to the conclusion that the notion that salmon return to the river they were born in order to spawn before they die….was folklore and bullshit….which would of course make the continued operation of such taxpayer based hatcheries unjustifyable….he was advised to change his findings…he would not…rice bowl broken…(the government has since closed these operations with no fanfare)…
Your desire to be retained like a bureaucrat makes me doubt your scientific integrity…my brother-in-law (a different example) is a marine biologist….he got fed up with working for fisheries and oceans and is now a successfull fish broker and sea food restauranteur.
Andrew, Stephen Harper never muzzled ANY scientist….he just stopped paying those who provided no new information….no new information…no value added…the tax payer is not obligated to pay a retainer to those who do not produce new value added..scientists were always at liberty to make there Casandra outcry where ever they wished with no danger of being censored or punished for what they had to say whatsoever….you have no idea what it is like to be proactively muzzled.
And you have just put the lie to what you previously said about the jepardy of your rice bowl not having a political component….which makes the objectivity of your science highly suspect and dubious….you do indeed have a livelyhood dog in this race.

There are three parties (Green, Lib, NDP) that I know will support Canadian scientists and not muzzle us again, and the Libs are merely the likeliest to win.
You mean "scientists", right? Since someone who believes babies are parasites in contravention of all scientific and medical knowledge can hardly be called a scientist. "scientists" like that need to be muzzled.

Nope.. Trudeau will not be re-elected.. He will be most likely be up for charges. If any one moves from Canada.. It will be Trudeau. He will run and hide.
John Wick commented 2019-07-20 21:42:45 -0400
Robert Greeley,
Nope and the 4 years he has already been PM reinforce that point. Life in Canada is great.
Sorry you are not happy here. Are you going to move if Trudeau is re-elected?
Your current Trudeau goon political party is going to change that.
My life in Canada has been wonderful in Canada for many decades. What political party has power at the moment has changed that.
Don't worry – I am sure you are quiet old, so you will hopefully feel death's warm embrace soon enough and you can leave this place.
Yeah Johnny peoplekind you and your followers want a dictatorship?? I hope you get it goof!… I will be laughing wholeheartedly at your demise goofball..
Johnny peoplekind.. keep on defending fascist communist dictators like your goof goon boss Trudeau.. You should get a taste of it shoved down your throat first.. if you like the taste.. get out of Canada and go to Iran or Syria so you can wallow in the cesspool of sh!t
That goes for Trudeau and his goon squad also.. If you want to live in a globalist UN cesspool.. get the fack out!! There are plenty of cesspools that need your help and aid.. Go there and preach your sh!t to the other dictators you admire… you bunch of stooges!
Glenn Craig,
So are you voting Scheer to get rid of Trudeau, since Bernier can't even beat the Greens or NDP?
"In the wake of being unceremoniously "disallowed" to run as a candidate for the Conservative Party of Canada for ostensibly being an "Islamophobe," the distinguished Professor Salim Mansur talks with Just Right Media host Robert Vaughan"
"Islamophobe" Tsk Tsk Tsk….who would be so foolish as to fear THEM…THEM of all people….everybody knows they are just a bunch of pussies who only want peace.
John Wick….the Fraser Institute are big bad boogey-capitalists…just ask any leftist think tank.
Jill Ward,
The Fraser Institute is just another right wing shill.
"Most Canadians have heard of the Fraser Institute, the British Columbia-based "think tank". Its reports and "studies" are often covered in the mainstream media as independent and objective.But the truth is that the Fraser Institute exists to promote rightwing ideology. It was created and is funded by big corporate interests who sought to change government policy to enrich themselves".

I don't I would far prefer the Greens to win, but it's unrealistic. There are three parties (Green, Lib, NDP) that I know will support Canadian scientists and not muzzle us again, and the Libs are merely the likeliest to win.
Jamie MacMaster commented 2019-07-20 08:16:24 -0400
It has to be crystal-clear to everyone that scheer-the-steer has no guts and little backbone. He holds exactly the same position as turdo when it comes to climate change; he feels that turdo's position on internet censorship doesn't go far enough; and he has become a cheer-leader for the corrupt dairy cartel.
Over the years I have held my nose and voted for Conservative politicians whom I knew would prove to be craven, politically-correct sheep who would march to the drumbeat of our childish media. There were only two exceptions: Mike Harris, and to a much lesser extent, Harper.
But I have reached a point in my life where from now on I will vote according to my own principles, and those principles alone. I will not vote for gutlessness – I have done that far too often. I will not cast my ballot for dishonesty; I've been down that road more than once. I guess what it boils down to is that I'm sick to death of politically-correct sheep, and if there is no alternative, I'll stay home on election day.
And the old argument that then "I would have no moral authority to criticize" is simply bullshit invented by those who benefit from the maintenance of the abysmal status quo.
Duke of Paducah,
I guess you are voting for Scheer then, since Bernier can't win if you only care about getting rid of Trudeau.
There is a universe of difference between Trump and Bernier when it comes to polls. Bernier is doing worse than the Green Party. Regardless of how the American election went – Trump was an actual challenger. Bernier isn't. He can't beat Scheer – never mind Trudeau.
PETER NETTERVILLE commented 5 hours ago
We all know Maxime will not take many seats if any at all.
As that great Albertan, Bill Aberhart said, "If the people haven't suffered enough it is their God-given right to suffer some more".
Duke.. Maybe John and Andrew are… Trudeau & Butts?
The real question is why John and Andrew want that nincompoop The Groper to win? He is without doubt the stupidest national leader in world history. And yet they salivate at the thought of another term for the most corrupt and incompetent government in Canadian history. Maybe some time in a Chinese prison would tune them in. Nah. Just kidding- the Three Pillars of Leftiedom and all.

Riga is the capital of Latvia, it is located on the Baltic Sea at the mouth of the river Daugava and is also the largest city of the Baltic Republics. You can sense Riga's history while wandering the city, which is bounded by the river Daugava, the city canal and in its breathtaking range of architecture styles – from Baroque to Classicism, from Romanesque to National Romanticism, and from Renaissance to Art Deco, Jugendstil and Art Nouveau.
Riga's old town gives it its fairy tale appeal, with Gothic spires that dominate Rīga's cityscape.

Q: PostgreSQL Timestampz BIRT Params I am having an issue with adding a timestamp with timezone, aka timestampz, as a parameter in BIRT for querying postgreSQL.
With no param in BIRT the following works fine:
WHERE start_date = '2016-02-02 03:26:30.000Z'

Now with a param in BIRT, I can't get any combination of a DateTime to work:
WHERE start_date = ?

Next I make the param which fails as DateTime data type and as string data type:

In the param editor, I've also tried the following in default value expression:
BirtDateTime.now()

and
new Date().toISOString().replace("T"," ")

I always get an error saying:
ERROR: operator does not exist: timestamp with time zone = character varying
Hint: No operator matches the given name and argument type(s).
You might need to add explicit type casts.

I even tried casting like so:
WHERE start_date = ?::timestampz

BIRT just tells me the syntax is not supported, which means it is just not supported on a parameter.
On another note, how can you debug BIRT queries? I would like to see what the startDate param is right before it is added to the query.
In the mean time I'm going to have to take the "hacky" route. :(
WHERE extract(year from start_date) = ?
AND extract(month from start_date) = ?
AND extract(day from start_date) = ?

----- EDIT -----
Dang! 8 months later and no response. Still haven't figured this out. Just been using the hacky route till this day. I guess just not enough people use BIRT and Postgres :(

A: With BIRT 4.6.0, PostgreSQL 9.1.7 and PostgreSQL JDBC driver 9.2.1002, I had success with the parameter having "Data Type" equal to "String" in the "Edit Parameter" dialog for the Data Set, and an SQL query clause like this:
WHERE some_field >= TO_DATE(?, 'YYYYMMDD')

The string parameter has to be specified in the provided format.
This seems to still be a bit hacky, but not as ugly.
Report Parameters
Although the question didn't ask about this type of parameter, I noticed that somehow the above works with them, although I don't understand why.
When I made a Report Parameter of type "Date" and set the data source for a chart to that data set and passed through the Report Parameter as params["some_param"].value, it somehow ended up working.  I don't understand why, as params["some_param"] is apparently of type java.sql.Date (according to an error message I received when playing with this) and it doesn't seem to stringify in "YYYYMMDD" format.
It also worked when I changed to TO_DATE(?, 'YYYY-MM-DD').

February 8, 2018: the current purpose of this page is to share thoughts on the structure of a new peer-reviewed academic research journal: the Afghanistan Journal of Urban Planning (AJUP).
Background: Since 2014, three urban planning programs have been established in Afghanistan: at Kabul Polytechnic University, Herat University, and Kabul University. This page is the starting point for establishing an online, peer-reviewed Journal of Urban Planning to support critical research in issues related to planning in particular, and the urban sector in general.
Languages: Dari, Pashto, English. All Abstracts must be in two languages: Pashto or Dari, and English.
Frequency: Quarterly, named by year (HS) and issue: 1397(1), 1397(2), 1397(3), 1397(4), 1398(1), etc.
Membership: we believe AJUP should be distributed for free, but we also believe the core team should be paid. We therefore ask core users of AJUP to pay an annual membership fee (AFS1000?), and we may solicit advertising. We may also seek funding, from Afghan or foreign agencies as donors.
Themes: Research and Documentation in all of these areas is welcome.

Metabolism is defined as how much energy (or calories) your body burns in a day. There is a lot of misinformation about metabolism and what you can do to get yours to maximum capacity. If you think you have a slow metabolism and that is the reason you are unable to maintain a healthy weight, then there are lots of things you can do to fix it!
• Do HIIT! (High Intensity Interval Training). Steady state cardio raises your metabolism while you are doing it, but HIIT raises your metabolism for hours following. This happens because of the intense strain that you put on your body. It burns more energy recovering. Do a HIIT session by alternating short bursts of intense activity with slow recovery periods.
• Lift Weights! Resistance training also strains your body so much that your metabolism stays elevated for up to 39 hours after.
• Build Muscle! You can't transform fat into muscle (that's just crazy talk!), but your body will burn approximately 30-50 calories extra a day per added pound of lean muscle.
• Eat more protein! Protein is harder for your body to digest, so the energy your body uses by digesting it is greater than the other macronutrients. Protein is also necessary for building muscle, so make sure you are getting protein in each of your 5-6 meals every day. For individuals trying to gain muscle, .75grams to 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight is recommended.
• Eat 5-6 small meals per day! Eating & digesting food raises your metabolism, so it stands to reason that elevating your metabolism 5-6 times a day as opposed to 3 is favorable. Also, your body will adapt to prevent starvation, so if you aren't eating frequently enough, your body will really want to store energy (as fat) by decreasing your metabolism. An added benefit to more frequent meals is that you won't be as hungry at each meal so you should be better able to control your portion sizes and make better decisions about the foods you eat.
• Drink plenty of water! Water is a vehicle for flushing fat from your system & drinking it actually raises your metabolism. When you are properly hydrated, your body is better balanced, your cravings are decreased and you feel less hunger. If you are thirsty, you are already dehydrated, so drink up! You should consume at least ½ of your bodyweight in ounces of water per day. Ex. A 150lb woman should drink at least 75 ounces of water per day.
• Reduce your stress! Stress hormones trigger a survival mechanism in our bodies that decreases metabolism. Yoga, meditation & deep breathing are all great stress relievers. Incorporate these into your daily routine for many other health benefits as well.
Don't let your negative thoughts about your "slow" metabolism control your results! Use these simple techniques to increase your metabolism and get the results you want from your training. Please stop by the gym or use the contact page if you have questions about how to apply this information.

Not many people get the chance to experience the African Safari! And if you are, then consider yourself lucky as you are going in for a life changing experience and a wonderful memory.
Africa is a vast continent which is thrice the size of the United States made of 54 different countries. Once you have explored African countries, you are sure to come back for more. African Safari should be at the top of your bucket list. After all, the continent is home to more than 800 species of animals, and most of its animals are not found anywhere else in the world. It is only in Africa that you can enjoy the cheetah's fluid grace, hear the lion's roar and gaze at thousands of zebras migrating across the vast grasslands.
Hire the services of a qualified team to get the best experience with those exclusive safaris. These safaris have fewer people, and there is a photographer in the safari vehicle. Thus, one can rely on those photographers to get great shots as well as enjoy the safari.
The best way to experience the safari is to know the locals and the guide. Ask your guide and the locals about the safari and use their knowledge. You must take advantage of their experience and knowledge.
Remember to pack light but right for the safari. Ensure that you have the right luggage, food, and water that can fit in the vehicle. In your daypacks, bring what you need during the day for the safari. Wear comfortable clothes and a couple of changes, headlamp, basic toiletries and of course do not forget to bring your photography equipment!
Staying at a luxury lodge and eating at a fancy restaurant every night can be expensive. Go for camping to avoid the excess amount of money, and you can always camp near the national parks. Don't be surprised to see zebras, elephants, and buffalo graze near your tent at night.
If you're on any medication, make sure to bring enough to last your Safari trip. In addition to medication get other helpful supplies like foot powder, eye drops, and lip balm. High SPF sunscreen and sunglasses are a must.
Safaris can be physically taxing and mentally straining. So, it is essential to keep healthy and stay well hydrated. Drink lots of water and eat local food and fresh fruits. Your body takes time to adjust to the hot sun and dry air and thus face the risk of dehydration.
When on a safari, make sure that you follow your guide and stay in your car at all times. Keep in mind that you are in the land of the wild and animals can camouflage themselves very well. You won't be able to see them until it's too late. So, don't make unnecessary noise or disturb them or get too close to them.
Just keep the above tips in mind when going for an African Safari and enjoy the best experience.
