Hugely spectacular volcanic island that everybody should see. Direct flights now make this much easier from the UK.
Stunning views, beautiful villages, great public transport and some good beaches. Cosmopolitan and lively but can be expensive. The island was devastated in the 16th century BC by a volcanic eruption that destroyed the Minoan civilisation. Important archaeological excavations are now underway at Akrotiri, uncovering the town that was buried by volcanic ash.


MOUNTAIN VIEW — For a second time this year, Mountain View authorities have arrested a 44-year-old woman they say lied about being a victim of domestic violence, then looted the homes of her alleged abusers after they were taken away by police.
Sunmee Kim — also known as Sunny Jean Kim, Jean Kim, Jiin and Ashley Kim — met her victims on Korean dating websites, developed relationships with them, then called police and claimed she was the victim of domestic violence, according to police.
"She would steal any and all valuables and also receive victim services," Mountain View police said in a news release Wednesday.
In January, Kim told officers her fiancé attacked her, but she refused to provide her full name and contact information, according to police. The man, who was arrested at the time, denied they were in a romantic relationship, instead stating they were only housemates. Police said they released the man after determining he had not committed any crime. However, the residence was "cleared out" while he was away.
Detectives launched an investigation and learned Kim was wanted for similar crimes in Los Angeles and Orange counties, where she had been sentenced nearly five years ago.
Kim was eventually arrested in Palo Alto in June. She was soon declared at-large again when she did not report to her probation officer for court appearances related to the Southern California cases.
On Monday, detectives received a tip Kim was staying at a hotel in Burlingame and arrested her there. Police said a search of Kim turned up multiple credit cards belonging to additional victims.
Mountain View police Lt. Mike Canfield lauded his detectives for cracking the case.
"Kim's abuse of services that should be used to help real victims of domestic violence is appalling, and we will do all we can to ensure she cannot ensnare and victimize again," Canfield said.

Saag paneer is a popular Indian dish made with spinach and cubed paneer cheese, and in this vegan version tofu is used instead of cheese. The tofu cubes are tossed in turmeric and fried until crispy, then mixed in with the spiced spinach mixture. Instead of yogurt, coconut milk is used to thicken it up a bit. Serve this flavorful dish by itself as a main, or as a side. It goes great with naan bread!
Press paper towels on the tofu to drain the water, then chop into 1-inch pieces.
Toss the tofu with the turmeric and salt, then transfer to the skillet and fry until crispy.
Add the spinach, ginger, garlic, and spices to a Magic Bullet pitcher and pulse a few times to mix and chop the spinach smaller.
Transfer to a pot over medium heat and simmer for 5 minutes, then stir in the coconut milk.
Serve the spinach with the tofu on top, or mix in.


Heating costs are one of the most expensive aspects of colder weather. A comfortable temperature for residents can range based on who is paying for the heat and how warm they prefer to keep the unit.
Every state has different requirements for heating a rental property. If you don't know, check with your state department to find the answer. It is important to follow state and federal law before instituting regulations.
Get your lawyer to look over the contract and include a temperature regulation in the agreement every resident needs to sign. That way, if a legal issue ever arises, you will have the signature on the agreement to back it up.
Landlords have the right to see utility use on their property. If you suspect a tenant is abusing energy costs, this presents reasonable cause to check the meter and the energy bill. If, for example, you have it in writing that the thermostat should not be set above 72 degrees and the utility use says otherwise, then they may be breaching the rental agreement.
If your property requires a tamper-proof thermostat, shop here.
Even if you have reason to believe a tenant is breaching the agreement, you cannot force your way into a tenant's unit. Residents must grant entry, or a court order given to enter the apartment. Landlords can put in the agreement that if abuse of the contract happens, the landlord will use a lock box on the utilities, giving you a way to control the usage. But again, get it in writing before the tenant moves in.
The best thing you can do is draw up a solid rental agreement. If a tenant is breaching the contract, contact your lawyer to find out the next steps to take. It is important to maintain a professional attitude and try to keep a good relationship with the residents when possible, but a breach of contract and abuse of the utilities means it is time for a conversation.


The High Court has thrown out a bid to mine ironsands from the bottom of the ocean off the coast of South Taranaki.
Trans Tasman Resources had earlier won approval to do so in the second of two hearings before the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA).
But several iwi and environmental groups challenged this decision in the High Court.
In a judgement just handed down, Justice Peter Churchman condemned what he called a narrow interpretation of the law by the EPA's Decision Making Committee (DMC).
He ruled that was inconsistent with the purpose of the Exclusive Economic Zone Act.
It was also inconsistent with a policy of precautionary decision-making.
This meant that where information was uncertain or inadequate about the impacts of a scheme, then a marine consent authority should err on the side of caution and environmental protection.
The case involved an application by Trans-Tasman Resources to mine for iron ore in a 66sqkm area of seabed off the Taranaki Bight.
The company intended to dig up to 50 million tonnes of sand each year, extract the iron ore from it, and dump the residue on the sea floor.
The scheme would create 300 jobs and add $160 million to New Zealand's GDP, the company said.
Trans-Tasman lost its first application to do this after a hearing before the EPA.
But it resubmitted its application and won through a second time around.
Several groups immediately announced they would appeal.
This included the lobby group Kiwis Against Seabed Mining and some Taranaki iwi.
Kiwis Against Seabed Mining said appealing the decision was "the only responsible route".
The original application was opposed by fishing groups as well as iwi and environmentalists because undersea mining would stir up sediment and leave it suspended in the sea, at a cost to the living environment for fish.
Trans-Tasman Resources denied that this impact would be significant, and the size of the mined area would be small compared with the extent of the surrounding ocean.
In addition, this was hardly a pristine environment, due to the passage of ships and drilling for oil and gas.
Justice Churchman's comments were decisive.
"The narrow interpretation [of the EEZ Act] is inconsistent with the purpose of protecting the environment from pollution by regulating or prohibiting the discharge of harmful substances," he wrote.
"It was also inconsistent with the obligation that where information available is uncertain or inadequate, a marine consent authority must favour caution and environmental protection.
"The appeal is allowed and the decision of the DMC is quashed. The matter is referred back to the DMC for reconsideration, applying the correct legal test."
Two North Island iwi are standing together in opposition to a seabed mining exploration near a marine mammal sanctuary off the Taranaki coast.
The Conservation Minister says if it were up to her, a seabed mining exploration permit would not have been approved off the Taranaki coast.
Consent to mine ironsand off the south Taranaki coast was approved without proper data to show how many endangered species live there, the High Court has been told.
A project to mine ironsands from off the South Taranaki coast will be considered by the High Court in Wellington today.

Not long ago Google introduced their Google Chrome web browser, which was much faster than any other browser, and offered all the functionality needed, without the bloat of features rarely used. Google took this concept and applied it to their new operating system they call Google Chrome OS (operating system).
The concept with Chrome OS is to get rid of all the bloat and slowness caused by startup functions, and software applications, rarely used, and not needed if all you are using is a web browser. One software application left off the list in Chrome OS is Antivirus software, which isn't needed because those who use Chrome OS use a web browser to access their applications, usually scanned for viruses, and those application are "stateless," meaning someone else stores and manages the application software on a network cloud of servers somewhere on the Internet, like Google offers through Google Apps.
The Chrome OS is another push by Google to get us all to use Google Apps, just like the Google G1 phone with Android was Google's push to leverage Googles growing database, and associated apps, on mobile phones.
Although much of what Google does is all about getting us to use their products and services more, other companies can emulate Google's stateless Internet cloud approach just as easily to take advantage of this ever expanding market.
Below are a couple of videos that can provide some idea of what Google Chrome OS does, and how it works.

Injuries after King's Troop horses run amok in Charlton Park

King's Troop horses ran amok in Charlton this morning, causing injuries and a flood of emergency services to descend on Charlton Village.

Service personnel were hurt and an eyewitness at the scene told The Charlton Champion that one horse was taken away injured after the incident at about 10am. Other service personnel were said to be looking shaken.
One horse made it as far as Charlton Park Lane before being retrieved, hoof prints were left round Charlton Park.

It is understood the horses broke free after a motorist sounded a car horn behind them at about 10am. Ambulances were on the scene outside Charlton House for about an hour. An air ambulance arrived but left without taking a patient on board.
The King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery, which is based at Woolwich Barracks, performs ceremonial duties at state occasions. It moved to the area in 2012 and the horses can regularly be seen being exercised in the neighbourhood, although training has been reduced to a minimum during the pandemic.
Hoof prints can be seen all over Charlton Park (photo: Steve Hunnisett/charltonchampion.co.uk)
In February 2017, a soldier broke her neck trying to stop a gun carriage and runaway horses on exercises in Charlton Park.
An eyewitness, Anne James, had just driven through Charlton Village when she saw "a stream of horses rushing towards me". She called an ambulance after seeing a rider fall from her horse.
"I could see that they were army horses and assumed they were running blindly because something had upset them – the clattering of their hooves at speed made quite a noise," she told The Charlton Champion.
"Each rider led a second horse, and things were clearly out of control. There were at least a dozen horses, and some of them were slipping and sliding on the tarmac. They ran in front of my car and across the pavement, where they jumped a small wall then the boundary fence at the front of Charlton House.
"As I watched them head off across the grass, I saw one rider fall to the pavement – she held on to the reins and was dragged for a few seconds, but then let go and curled into a ball to protect herself from the horses that were still hurtling past her."
An Army spokesperson told The Charlton Champion: "We can confirm a number of military personnel and horses from the King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery were injured whilst training this morning.
"The injured personnel are receiving medical treatment and the horses are being assessed. It would be inappropriate to comment further at this time."
Update: Six people were taken to hospital, MyLondon.news reported.

This is an excellent dedicated TTL auto flashgun with bounce/zoom head and AF illuminator for most Pentax SF, Z, MZ, *ist and 645 auto focus film SLR cameras, plus the *ist D, DS, DS2 and Samsung GX-1S digital SLRs. It's NOT suitable for any other digital models, manual focus cameras, or the Pentax Z-70 (PZ-70). The flash is in very good condition, fully working order and supplied with a copy of the instructions, plus Alkaline batteries. Please read the full description for more important information.
The bounce flash head tilts up to 30, 45, 60 or 90 degrees for bounce flash, which gives softer, more natural lighting than direct flash, and reduces the chance of redeye. Zoom facility for lenses from 35mm wide angle, through 50mm standard to 85mm (and longer) telephoto, or the equivalent on other formats. Even wider lenses can be used with bounce flash.
TTL (Through The Lens) automatic exposure system with fully automatic, dedicated operation in all exposure modes, including Program. Thyristor circuitry for faster recycling and more flashes per set of batteries. Guide numbers vary up to 34m/114ft (tele), 30m/100ft (standard) and 24m/80ft (wide) with ISO 100 film. Auto range of up to 15m (49 feet) with ISO 100 film and 50mm f/2 lens, but as with all flashguns, actual range will depend on the conditions. Works in the camera's autofocus mode, and has an AF illuminator on the front to assist focusing in low light.
This independent Cobra 450AF flashgun for Pentax (PN) is nicely made, around 115mm (4.54") tall and weighs approximately 230g (8.2oz) without batteries. It's powered by 4x standard disposable alkaline AA batteries, and one set is included. Standard hot shoe with locking shoe fitting for secure mounting.
A great flash for Pentax AF film and early digital SLR users.
The flash is in fully working order (checked on our Pentax *ist D), the controls and movements operate positively with little play, and all features work as expected. Cosmetically it shows minimal signs of use with some surface marks here and there in the plastic finish. The battery contacts are clean and work fine, while the instructions are a copy (in English) but quite legible.
No cracks, splits or deep scratches, and overall, it's in nice shape.
This flash can be used on many Pentax 35mm and medium format AF SLR cameras, including the SFX (SF1), SFXn (SF1n), SF7 (SF10), Z-1 (PZ-1), Z-1P (PZ-1P), Z-5, Z-5p, Z-10 (PZ-10), Z-20 (PZ-20), Z-50p, MZ-3, MZ-5 (ZX-5), MZ-5n (ZX-5n), MZ-6 (ZX-L), MZ-7 (ZX-7), MZ-10 (ZX-10), MZ-30 (ZX-30), MZ-50 (ZX-50), MZ-60 (ZX-60), MZ-S and *ist 35mm cameras, plus the 645N and 645NII medium format models. Automatic, dedicated operation with shutter speed and/or aperture set automatically (depending on the exposure mode) when the flash is charged, and flash ready status shown in the viewfinder. TTL Auto flash control system for the most accurate exposures. This flash is NOT fully compatible with the Pentax Z-70 (PZ-70). It will fit and work OK, but the design of the camera's on/off dial means the locking collar on the shoe can't be tightened.
It's compatible with the Pentax *ist D, DS, DS2 and Samsung GX-1S digital SLRs in TTL mode (ISO settings of 200 or 400 are recommended). It's NOT suitable for any other Pentax or Samsung digital models, which only support P-TTL – see below.
AF flash units are NOT suitable for manual focus Pentax cameras, the digital EI-2000, any other digital types such as the *ist DL, DL2, K-series, 645D, 645Z and Q series, or the related Samsung GX-1L, GX-10 and GX-20 models. These digital cameras require P-TTL flash units for full compatibility, but some flashes for Pentax manual focus cameras can be used with restrictions – please check our other listings or contact us for details. It's NOT suitable for Samsung NX cameras.

Nov 12 PLAYER RATINGS: Mostly 6's, a few 7's, two 5's... And a rare non-team related 8 and 10.
Hungover, tired, in an airport, but being kept alive by hope. The life of an Irish fan. Here's our quick take on individual performances last night.
Darron Randolph: 7. Two fantastic saves. But a very nervous parry-away from an Eriksen shot in first half that Sisto should have scored from. A huge let-off. Was Man of The Match for many, possibly a bit generous in our eyes.
Stephen Ward: 6. Was steady, but got caught out a few times from thousand angled balls Delaney and co shot his direction. Continues to communicate well with McClean.
Shane Duffy: 7. His type of game, but the Danish offered a much more competitiveness in the air than the Welsh. Got his head on everything that came his way, although, nearly always, his clearances landed at Danish players. The fact he was our main attacking threat speaks margins.
Ciaran Clark: 6. Captained the side. Himself and Duffy are forging a very solid partnership. Clark still prone to a few errors when ball is at his feet though – last night we saw that again, luckily Eriksen wasn't at the races to capitalise on one particuar miss-pass. No near OG to report, always good.
Cyrus Christie: 6. Created our best chance of the game, single-handedly. Great show of ambition. Similarly to Ward though, he got caught out – particularly so early in the first half with a ball played in behind him. Led to a one on one that Randolph had to make two smart saves from.
James McClean: 7. Very good off the ball. And was probably the one who tried to encourage us most to do something when we had it. Didn't stop running, as per, covered amazing amount of grass. Astonishingly, didn't get booked.
Harry Arter: 6. Want to give him a 7 for his effort, and, it should be noted, effectiveness off the ball; broke up a lot of Danish play. Did very well majoritiy of the time on Eriksen (alongside Brady). But was generally woeful on the ball, which we don't feel is an injust criticism, considering his level.
Jeff Hendrick: 5. Hope he was injured. Another display where he found himself unable to have any impact in the game. Whether he push, or held, it always felt like he was drifting. Barely got on the ball when we had it. Worrying.
Robbie Brady: 6. Better than Hendrick, but another player who was largely on the fringes. Held good shape in defence though, particularly with Eriksen. His ambition with the ball slowly got better as the game progressed, but again, you'd expect more. Delivery from set pieces was poor, a growing trend in his game throughout the whole campaign – O'Dowda should have been allowed to take a few.
Callum O'Dowda: 6. Alongside McClean and Christie he was the player who wanted to take the Danish on most when in possession. A few very positive runs in second half - came to little - but a bit more experience and he'll learn to be a bit more streetwise. Didn't look out of place which is a phenomenal testament to his progression.
Daryl Murphy: 5. We felt it was the right call to play him over Long, but it didn't work out for O'Neill at all. Has no legs to press, and against a player of Kjaer's experience, he nearly lost all of his duels. To his credit, it was a very difficult role he was asked to play. Will almost certainly drop to bench for Tuesday's decider.
Subs:
Shane Long: 6. He may be short on confidence in front of goal, but the rest of his game is calm and measured. Won a few free kicks, and found good space on one particular occasion down the right channel. Followed that with a 30 yard attempt off his left foot, which doesn't suggest the tortured mental struggle the media want you to believe.
Hourihane & Whelan not on long enough to rate.
Manager. 6: We've said it before, and will no doubt say it again. It wasn't pretty, you'd like to have seen us be a bit more ambitious when on the ball, but flying back from Copenhagen today it's hard not to feel a draw is a positive result. Hugely bold call to pick O'Dowda in midfield at the expense of Whelan. Didn't pay huge dividends, but O'Neill clearly learned from the Georgian debacle last time Arter and Whelan played together. Murphy, in hindsight, was probably the wrong call. But we too felt he should start so can't knock O'Neill that much for it. 90 minutes now in Dublin to go for a win against a side whose wind looked to slowly get knocked from their sails as the game progressed. We're certain O'Neill will take that.
Referee: 8. Don't normally comment on referee's but felt that it's only fair here. First 20 minutes he was waved everything off on both sides, which played into the hands of the Danish who wanted a fast, uninterupted, start. But he maintained control throughout, and considering there were 20 players on yellow cards going into this game, he did phenomenally well not to hand out any more. The second leg will benefit greatly because of it. On another day Delaney, Poulsen, Arter, and McClean would almost certainly be missing the return leg.
Richard Keogh. 10. Spent the game in amongst the Irish fans with his bird. Fair play to him. Seriously tight jeans.

Q: Python and CSV with formulae I have a CSV file with formulae, like this:
1;;2.74;0
=A1+C1;=A2;=C1

What's the best way to convert formulae into numbers, as follows
1;;2.74;0
3.74;3.74;2.74

?
The only way I know is to read it with csv.reader as a list of lists and then loop through each element. But it seems there must be a simpler way.
P. S. I have a hint to use eval

A: The CSV format does not support formulas. It is a plain text only format.
Although some popular software like MS Excel, will calculate the formulas. I am not aware of a parser that allows this. You may however, attempt to write your own parser. The success of this will depend on how advanced formulas you are looking to have in the CSV.

Go to the manager, and click on the 'who is at the school now' button at the bottom right. When you do, a popup opens that shows all of the active signins. When this comes up, it should be done syncing. To confirm, close this window and look at the bottom right of the main manager window for the timestamp. It should show within a minute of current time. If not, repeat the process until it does.
Then, go to the client. Click on the red exit/checkout button at the bottom right. If it asks for a badge number, skip that screen by clicking the checkbox at the bottom left saying 'i don't have a printed badge', then clicking checkout and confirming on the next dialogue box that you don't have a badge by clicking yes. Once you get to the list of active check-ins, look for 'refresh' at the bottom. Click that, it'll say it's syncing, and once that dialogue box goes away it should be done. Look at the bottom right to check the time-stamp like with the manager.


I got to this spot during twilight and refined my angle while waiting for sunrise. I didn't think the color was going to hit but I got lucky. The color lasted long enough for this 500 sec exposure at ISO 50 using 3.0 ND and 0.9 Hard GND optical filters.

UNESCO launches new series with a profile of R&D in Botswana
Honourable Dr Pelonomi Venson-Moito, UNESCO Director-General and ADG/SC at the launch on 14 November 2013, © UNESCO/F. Gentile
The first volume in UNESCO's new online series of GO→SPIN Country Profiles in Science, Technology and Innovation Policy was launched on 14 November 2013 at UNESCO headquarters. It is dedicated to the research and innovation landscape of Botswana.
The study was launched at a side event of UNESCO's General Conference that was inaugurated by UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova and moderated by Assistant Director-General for Natural Sciences Gretchen Kalonji. 'All countries are seeking new sources of creativity and innovation, to craft policies that are inclusive, just and sustainable,' observed the Director-General in her opening remarks.
The Director-General then welcomed the Minister of Education and Skills of Botswana, the Honourable Dr Pelonomi Venson-Moitoi.
The Minister thanked UNESCO for the fruitful collaboration on the study, which was financed by the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation and Development (AECID). The Honourable Dr Pelonomi Venson-Moitoi recalled how, in her capacity as Minister of Communication, Science and Technology in 2008, she had requested UNESCO's assistance in reviewing the country's first Science and Technology Policy, dating from 1998. Accompanied by UNESCO, Botswana had published its updated National Policy on Research, Science and Technology in 2011, followed by the Implementation Plan a year later, within a project financed by AECID. Present at the launch, a smiling Vicente Mas Taladriz from AECID reaffirmed his government's support for UNESCO.
The Minister then went on to highlight some of the challenges facing her country. She cited the need to improve both intellectual property protection and the commercialization of products derived from research and development (R&D). She also evoked the funding dilemma of a developing country like Botswana, where the decision to invest in R&D has to be weighed against the need, for example, to build a clinic for people afflicted with HIV and AIDS.
The Minister observed that Botswana had been fortunate. At the time of independence in 1966, it was one of the poorest countries in the world. A year later, diamonds were discovered and had since become a pillar of the economy.
Mapping Research and Innovation in the Republic of Botswana reveals that the country has one of the highest levels of income and scientific productivity per capita in sub-Saharan Africa. In an effort to reduce dependence on the mining sector, the government has made diversifying the economy a priority. Conscious that private-sector participation will be critical to the success of this strategy, the government has established the Botswana Innovation Hub.
UNESCO's Global Observatory of Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Instruments (GO→SPIN) was launched in 2012 by UNESCO's Division of Science Policy and Capacity-building, via a series of workshops in Africa.
GO→SPIN is helping Member States to monitor and evaluate their performance in science, engineering, technology and innovation, via a standard methodology for analysing policies, legal frameworks, operational policy instruments and a series of indicators. The study includes different inventories of the various components of their national innovation system. This monitoring tool has been designed to help countries reform and upgrade their national science and innovation systems and governance. GO→SPIN should also offer a solid foundation for foresight studies in relevant areas.

IDIS AI in the Box (DV-2116);
Accurate, fast and effective
IDIS introduces AI in the Box (DV-2116), reinforcing the power of video observation systems with the most accurate Deep Learning Analytics. IDIS Deep Learning Analytics (IDLA) has achieved unprecedented accuracy of 98% in independent tests, a record performance with fast data processing.
IDIS DEEP LEARNING
The DV-2116 makes Deep Learning Analytics accessible for small to medium-sized applications, thereby improving the security and efficiency of the control room. The plug-and-play IDLA-ready device comes with an NVDIA GTX1060 GPU chipset that can be used to analyze up to 16 channels simultaneously.
Users benefit from:
robust and calibration-free object detection and classification (objects such as people, cars and bicycles)
detection of intruders and hanging around
powerful intelligent search functions
follow on color, object and number
The Deep Learning Engine from IDIS, which drives the new DV-2116 AI in the Box solution, can recognize potentially significant movements and characteristics of people and vehicles, while ignoring activities that are not relevant. The technology can quickly go through hours of video to find specific people. Due to the self-learning properties, it also becomes more accurate over time.
For privacy reasons YouTube needs your permission to be loaded. For more details, please see our Privacy Policy.
IDIS Deep Learning Analytics (IDLA)
An advanced AI engine designed for security and safety applications
The IDIS Deep Learning Engine is an artificial neural network that acts like the human brain, learning from experience. Out-performing human capability it can analyze vast amounts of data points taken from video footage across single or multiple cameras, covering an area, a site or multiple facilities simultaneously. This allows it to first detect and then identify an event or threat, while filtering out false alarms.
The industry's most advanced and accurate AI engine
The IDIS Deep Learning Engine has been designed and developed in-house by our own team of AI experts using deep neural network technology to deliver industry-leading accuracy. Its capability has been proven in independent testing at live customer sites using high-quality video footage.
Learning from Big Data in Video
The IDIS Deep Learning Engine is constantly improving, with ongoing system development and big data learning – an evolution that started with the first generation in 2017 and has already progressed to our third-generation V3 engine, launched in 2019.
Today, the IDIS Deep Learning Engine is achieving 98% accuracy and outperforming other top-tier surveillance vendors.
Up to 98% accurate
IDIS has developed its Deep Learning Engine specifically for security and life safety applications.
The engine has evolved using big data from surveillance footage where security and safety breaches have occurred – events such as intrusions or people having slips, trips or falls. It has also learned by analyzing data from video streams that capture the behavior of people and the movement of vehicles and objects.
Specialized Functionality
IDIS Deep Learning Analytics allows users to simply and easily leverage the power of the IDIS AI engine.
IDIS Object Detection technology allows operators to automatically identify and track target objects by using modelling technology that creates a fixed background in the scene, allowing the detection and monitoring of moving objects across the top.
In practice it can analyze loitering and trespassing, and handle people counting in both real-time video streaming as well as recorded footage.
IMF (Instant Meta Filtering)
As surveillance footage is recorded, the IDIS AI engine automatically recognizes objects, places, and movements and then extracts and stores metadata relating to every scene. This metadata provides classification, identity and context to video streams, allowing operators to organize, search and retrieve intelligent information from huge amounts of video footage quickly and easily.
IMF rapidly sorts through fine-grained meta-data – as easily as performing a simple text search – to locate a specific person or vehicle of interest across a site or even multiple facilities. In turn this reduces investigation time for often critical incidents from days and hours down to minutes.
Action Recognition (option)
Action Recognition is an AI technology that uses advanced automated algorithms to provide high accuracy and automated event recognition, self-learned from various cases.
For example, Action Recognition can spot a person falling over, in real-time, and trigger a notification. This ensures that critical events never go undetected and enables control room operators to initiate fast, appropriate responses to incidents.
Person Match (option)
IDIS Person Match technology that extracts the characteristics of a person in order to search for the same person or persons across single or multiple recorded video streams.
This allows users to quickly search vast amounts of video data to monitor and track people of interest, to reveal their behavior and movements over time, and to allow rapid investigation of incidents or suspicious activity.
Scalable, multi-format solution
Accurate, fast, simple, and scalable, IDIS Deep Learning Analytics (IDLA) powered by the IDIS Deep Learning Engine, offers agile object detection and classification of people, cars, and bicycles, intrusion detection, and loitering detection—all adapted to fit a 16:9 ratio.

A Quest for Truth in Haiti
By Jacqueline Charles, The Miami Herald
Thu, Apr. 11, 2013
The unresolved demons in Michèle Montas' life underscore how even the influential in Haiti can't push the levers of a justice system that's badly in need of reform.
Forced into exile by the Duvalier dictatorship — only to return to Haiti, and be forced out again by an assassin's bullet — Montas today finds herself at the center of two epic legal cases winding at snail-pace through the judicial system.
In one courtroom, an investigative judge is trying to determine who ordered the assassination of her husband, agronomist-turned-famous journalist Jean Léopold Dominique and a guard in the courtyard of his Radio Haiti-Inter 13 years ago this month.
In another, a three-judge appeals panel is determining whether former President-for-Life Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier, 61, should stand trial on human rights abuses that Montas and others say they suffered under his dictatorship from 1971 to 1986.
"What matters to me is the process," said Montas, a former spokeswoman for U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and whose grandfathers were justices on Haiti's supreme court. "Somewhere in me, there is that time when we had a judicial system that functioned."
But in Haiti, where crimes routinely go unpunished, the justice system hasn't worked in a long time. Clerks still keep records by hand, legal proceedings are held in French although most speak Creole, and, according to a recent human rights report, judges often complain of being "unable to dispense justice calmly, because of explicit threats made against them or their families."
"There is still a long way to go before the justice system is working as it should be," said the report's author, Michel Forst, the ex-UN Independent Expert on the Situation of Human Rights in Haiti.
Still, Montas, a former radio journalist, pushes forward in her quest for answers.
"In the case of Jean, I hope things will come out. The truth is probably the first step toward rule of law. I just want the truth," she said. "In the case of Duvalier, what I want is for people to hear what happened. It's not about a dictator who is old and sick. It's about what impact he has had on the country.
"We are still paying the price for 30 years of dictatorship and many people don't realize it," she said.
On Thursday, after a two-week hiatus and a power outage inside the sauna-like courtroom, Duvalier's appeals hearing resumed with testimony from Henri Faustin, who was imprisoned for more than a year as a student.
Duvalier wants the court to dismiss an investigative judge's order that he stand trial on corruption charges. Montas and 29 others, including Faustin, are seeking to have crimes against humanity charges reinstated. The judge rejected those charges last year.
The case has divided Haitians with some suggesting to Montas that both Dominique and Duvalier are old stories that should be left in Haiti's tragic past.
"Impunity, for me, is not just a question of assassination. It's about everything in Haiti. It's about our future," said Montas, 66. "What does that mean when we cannot even try a guy who has taken $600 million out of Haiti's' coffers? That is what Duvalier did."
On Feb. 28, after refusing three previous requests by the court to appear, Duvalier finally faced his accusers — except for Montas.
She was 1,500 miles away in New York where she has lived since leaving Haiti 22 months ago after stepping down as special adviser to the head of the U.N. peacekeeping mission.
From her New York city high rise, where she's surrounded by Haitian paintings and a portrait of Dominique, she keeps tabs on the legal wrangling. She adds the latest developments in Dominique's case to a 38-page chronology that includes names of those implicated, summoned to give testimony and killed.
The case is currently in the hands of its tenth investigative judge, not counting those who outright refused to handle it when it landed on their desk. The current judge, Yvickel Dabresil, is tasked with determining "the intellectual author" of the hit. Quietly, Montas, however, fears that he, too, will do as his predecessors: quit under pressure or out of fear for his own safety.
"Almost everyone who has touched this case is dead," she said.
On Christmas Day 2002, while at home in Petionville, Montas almost joined the list herself when two unidentified gunmen fired shots at her, killing bodyguard Maxime Sëide. The bullet holes remain in her gate. When she most recently lived in Haiti, she traveled with six U.N. bodyguards and two armored cars.
"Why did they come and shoot at me? Because I was asking for justice everyday on the microphone?" she said. Two months later, fearing more deaths, she shut down the radio station, and again fled into self-exile.
Last month, Dabresil, the investigative judge, summoned former President René Préval and ex-investigative judge Claudy Gassant to give closed-door testimony.
In 2001, Gassant told The Miami Herald that he feared for his life because powerful people in then-President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's government might be implicated in the murders. Once a supporter of Aristide' and his Lavalas Family party, Dominique had become an outspoken critic on the airwaves.
"The executive is against me, the legislative is against me, and the judiciary, too," said Gassant, who later fled to South Florida. "I'm so afraid I don't know of whom to be afraid."
Gassant declined to discuss last month's meeting with the judge. Préval, who was a good friend of Dominique's, told The Herald, "It's natural that the judge would want to talk to me."
Some have suggested that Montas seek justice in an international court. That remains an option for Duvalier, she said.
She accuses Duvalier of "destroying hope" when on Nov. 28, 1980 his regime arrested her and several other journalists and imprisoned them in a 5-by-8 cell on the grounds of the presidential palace before shipping them into exile.
But she said there will be no international tribunal in the case of Dominique, whose decades-long struggle for democracy and championing of poor farmers was captured on the big screen by filmmaker Jonathan Demme in the documentary The Agronomist. His death on the eve of legislative elections in Haiti was declared by the Organization of American States "an attack on freedom of the press as well as democracy.''
"I want him to find justice in his own country because that is what he would have wanted. So many people have died since '86," Montas said. "I told myself that if we can use this case to push the issue of impunity to the outmost, then we should do it."
"No one is going to give me Jean back. I know that,'' she said. "But what's essential for me is that people see him for what he represented."


We must stand with Israel. It is the right thing to do politically, militarily, economically and most importantly—prophetically. We cannot allow the leaders of America to direct our course so that we turn our backs on the Chosen People now.
Prime Minister Netanyahu is risking everything by taking on President Obama and accepting an invitation to speak to a joint session of Congress. He made his case in his speech today in hopes that Bible-believing, evangelical legislators and others will stand with Israel.
Already 110 nations have recognized a Palestinian state, including Italy in just the past few days. The plan is for official state recognition in September at the United Nations. The only person who can stop this—in the natural—is President Obama with a Security Council veto, and there is no certainty that the Obama Administration will stop a plan that is largely what they have been calling for. The only ministry, to my knowledge, that has taken on this crisis is the Jerusalem Prayer Team.
Barukh..ha -mevarekh et ammo Yisrael ba-shalom  Blessed be He who blesses His people with Peace.
Thank you for this. Fantastic speech from the Israel Prime Minister.
Great to see you supporting Jerusalem prayer. Saw it yesterday as soon as it was out. Shalom to you all.

Yoonsang Kim is a Senior Research Scientist with NORC at the University of Chicago in the public health department, and a lead Biostatistican for the Social Data Collaboratory (SDCollab), interdisciplinary social data research team in NORC. She oversees data analysis and filtering process of social media data.
Kim has been conducting methodological research to filter social media data and quantify the assessment of data quality. She is interested in developing measures using social media data to understand public sentiment and social environment around topics such as particular health behavior, health policy, and marketing of health-related products. She is also leading the analyses for the projects that evaluate televised anti-smoking media campaigns and electronic cigarette advertising, and that examine the relationship between exposure to social media related to tobacco smoking and individual's smoking behavior.
Before joining NORC, Kim was a Biostatistician at the Institute for Health Research and Policy and an instructor of Biostatistics at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She has served as a co-investigator and Biostatistician in several NIH-funded projects and provided statistical consulting. She has extensive experience and expertise in analysis for longitudinal data, randomized controlled trials, and complex survey data. Prior to UIC, she was a Research Assistant Professor in the department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology at University of Oklahoma Health Science Center.
Kim and SDCollab published an article that proposed a framework for the collection and assessment of social media data under common and challenging conditions and a checklist for reporting data preparation. This is an effort to promote transparency and replicability in social media research and to move toward a reporting standard that researchers and reviewers can use to compare the quality of social media data analyzed across diffident studies. In another notable article, she and her colleagues provided comprehensive review of the estimation methods for logistic regression with multiple random effects, implemented in commonly used statistical packages, and conducted simulation to find a best suitable method and package that produce unbiased and efficient estimates. This provided a practical guidance for applied statisticians and analysts who want to use this type of models.

Craggs Energy celebrates 10-year anniversary and looks towards a 'greener' future – Member News
This month, business and residential fuel supplier Craggs Energy is celebrating its 10-year anniversary.
Originally launched in Calderdale, West Yorkshire with just one fuel tanker, a land rover and only three members of staff, the ever-growing and innovative company has seen a great deal of change over the past decade.
The Craggs Energy Group now serves thousands of customers, operates a fleet of over forty vehicles, employs over a hundred members of staff, runs numerous companies from multiple locations and supplies its services across the whole of the UK.
Chris Bingham, Chairman at the Craggs Energy Group said:
"It's remarkable we are celebrating ten years of Craggs Energy and the wider group. Looking back, I have to tell you it's been quite a roller coaster at times. Starting a new business is hard and keeping it alive long enough to become sustainable well that's even harder.
And yet together as a wider group we've built and acquired various companies since 2011. All of them are stable and will to continue to grow strongly in the coming years. I am immensely proud of what we have achieved but I'm also very grateful for the years of effort that everyone in the business has contributed.
I'd like to express my thanks to all staff, customers and partners who have chosen to be part of our journey. It has been quite a ride so far and I see no reason to expect anything different moving forward."
Richard Wallace, Managing Director at the Craggs Energy Group comments on the future:
"As we look towards the next decade for our group of businesses we will continue to provide a first-class service, with a strong, customer focussed team and our collaborative approach will allow us to offer new initiatives to our commercial and residential oil customers.
As the energy landscape is continuously changing, a large focus moving forward will be to support our customers on their journey to Net Zero. This will feature as an important part of our future vision and we are proud to be able to support homes and businesses with a range of carbon reduction strategies.
We have worked hard over the last twelve months to ensure we have the operational capacity, infrastructure and distributor rights to supply GreenD+ HVO across the North West of England, and beyond. We also introduced a carbon offsetting option for all fuel purchases which has been well received.
Most recently, we have facilitated the first in-land HVO Hub in the UK, and I'm pleased to see that so many of our customers have embraced this alternative fuel which reduces carbon emissions by up to 90%.
I've been with Craggs since 2017 and it has been a pleasure to see how the group has adapted and grown since and I'm looking forward to the exciting times ahead."
Dave Weston, Estate and Project Manager at Queen Ethelburga's Collegiate said,
"We've been working with Craggs for a couple of years and have recently made the switch to GreenD+HVO. This alternative diesel fuel reduces our carbon output by nearly 3,000 metric tonnes per year. Danny Almond, our account manager has been extremely helpful and informative when discussing our options for 'greener' ways to heat our buildings and maintain our landscapes.
We are delighted to be one of the first to sign up to Craggs Energy's HVO fuel and we are always looking for ways to meet the Government's target of reaching Net Zero carbon emissions."
