Emissions, Energy
Carbon budget is only half as big as thought

The days of producing electricity from fossil fuels may be drawing to an end.

Fossil fuel use will have to fall twice as fast as predicted if global warming is to be kept within the 2°C limit agreed internationally as being the point of no return, researchers say.
LONDON, 25 February, 2016 – Climate scientists have bad news for governments, energy companies, motorists, passengers and citizens everywhere in the world: to contain global warming to the limits agreed by 195 nations in Paris last December, they will have to cut fossil fuel combustion at an even faster rate than anybody had predicted.
Joeri Rogelj, research scholar at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis in Austria, and European and Canadian colleagues propose in Nature Climate Change that all previous estimates of the quantities of carbon dioxide that can be released into the atmosphere before the thermometer rises to potentially catastrophic levels are too generous.
Instead of a range of permissible emissions estimates that ranged up to 2,390 billion tons from 2015 onwards, the very most humans could release would be 1,240 billion tons.
Available levels
In effect, that halves the levels of diesel and petrol available for petrol tanks, coal for power stations, and natural gas for central heating and cooking available to humankind before the global average temperature – already 1°C higher than it was at the start of the Industrial Revolution – reaches the notional 2°C mark long agreed internationally as being the point of no return for the planet.
In fact, the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change summit in Paris agreed a target "well below" 2°C, in recognition of ominous projections − one of which was that, at such planetary temperatures, sea levels would rise high enough to submerge several small island states.
The Nature Climate Change paper is a restatement of a problem that has been clear for decades. Carbon dioxide proportions in the atmosphere are linked to planetary surface temperatures and, as they rise, so does average temperature. For most of human history, these proportions oscillated around 280 parts per million.
The global exploitation, on a massive scale, of fossil fuels drove the expansion of agriculture, the growth of economies, a sevenfold growth in human population, a sea level rise of 14cms, and a temperature rise of, so far, 1°C.
To stop temperatures increasing another 3°C or more and sea levels rising by more than a metre, humans have to reduce fossil fuel emissions. By how much these must be reduced is difficult to calculate.
"We have been overestimating the budget by 50 to more than 200%. At the high end, this is a difference of more than 1,000 billion tons of carbon dioxide"
The global carbon budget is really the balance between what animals emit – in this context, the word animals includes humans with cars and aeroplanes and factories – and what plants and algae can absorb. So the calculations are bedevilled by uncertainties about forests, grasslands and oceans.
To make things simpler, climate scientists translate the target into the billions of tons of carbon dioxide that, ideally, may be released into the atmosphere from 2015 onwards. Even these, however, are estimates.
There is general agreement that a limit of 590 billion tons would safely keep the world from overheating in ways that would impose ever greater strains on human society. The argument is about the upper limit of such estimates.
Dr Rogelj says: "In order to have a reasonable chance of keeping global warming below 2°C, we can only emit a certain amount of carbon dioxide, ever. That's our carbon budget.
"This has been understood for about a decade, and the physics behind this concept are well understood, but many different factors can lead to carbon budgets that are either slightly smaller or slightly larger. We wanted to understand these differences, and to provide clarity on the issue for policy-makers and the public.
"This study shows that, in some cases, we have been overestimating the budget by 50 to more than 200%. At the high end, this is a difference of more than 1,000 billion tons of carbon dioxide."
The same study takes a closer look at why estimates of the "safe" level of emissions have varied so widely.
One complicating factor has been, of course, uncertainty about what humans might do, and another has been about the other more transient greenhouse gases, such as methane and the oxides of nitrogen.
Although short-lived and released in smaller quantities, some of these are potentially far more potent than carbon dioxide as an influence on planetary temperatures.
Complex calculations
But Dr Rogelj and his colleagues found that a significant cause of variation was simply a consequence of the different assumptions and methodologies inherent in such complex calculations.
So the researchers have re-examined both the options and the approaches, and have worked out a global figure that, they suggest, could be relevant to "real-world policy".
It takes into account the consequences of all human activity, and it embraces detailed outlines of possible low-carbon choices. It also offers, they say, a 66% chance of staying within the internationally-agreed limit.
"We now better understand the carbon budget for keeping global warming below 2°C," Dr Rogelj says. "This carbon budget is very important to know because it defines how much carbon dioxide we are allowed to release into the atmosphere, ever.
"We have figured out that this budget is at the low end of what studies indicated before, and if we don't start reducing our emissions immediately, we will blow it in a few decades." – Climate News Network

The worldwide forest fire is out of control right now. The 400 ppm of carbon dioxide now in our atmosphere is now releasing some of the 1400 gigatons of methane locked in Arctic permafrost and in Arctic Ocean clathrate deposits. The Arctic ice pack is today about 1.25 million square kilometers short of its usual coversge, so right now the Arctic Ocean is slowly picking up excess heat from solar rays in late February.
The forecast is for methane emissions to eventually power-drive to the equivalent of maybe 1000 ppm of carbon dioxide equivalent. All of our planet's favorite food sources will pretty much fail in this climate. Can you digest coal?
Next year the planet's slow-moving forest fire will get bigger. I'm sorry, but the forest fire won't be as much as 30% contained next year because we aren't doing anything whatsoever. That's called the business as usual model. A real forest fire fighting model would try to get the problem 30% contained, or at least 1% contained is better than zero if that's all the ability that all of humanity has.

This is very ominous. The conversation needs to focus on how best to slam on the brakes of this runaway train. Fossil fuels are artificially "cheap" because their price excludes external costs. Reigning in their use and abandoning enormous sunk capital and stranded assets will require the strongest possible market mechanism. It is impossible to imagine success without the power of a world wide carbon price, but the UN is not mandated to set one. Where does that leave us?
If just the US and China were to agree on a carbon tax with border carbon duties, the rest of the world would soon follow. Recycling those tax dollars to citizens would not only protect the public from financial injury but would also build political popularity, as in Alaska's Permanent Fund. (Try taking it away.)
Citizens' Climate Lobby is working hard to get this idea across in Congress and with the public. Join a robust conversation about preventing the worst of climate change, while also thinking about how we're going to survive what we've already ordered.

"It also offers, they say, a 66% chance of staying within the internationally-agreed limit."
Why does everyone (scientists and media) talk about a ridiculous 66% chance? Does nobody think to put it in terms of a 33% chance of NOT keeping below 2°C?
"We now better understand the carbon budget for keeping global warming below 2°C," Dr Rogelj says.
So what's the answer to the real question, please, Dr Rogelj … What's the carbon budget for the 95% and 99% chances of keeping to the 2°C limit (which isn't safe anyway)?
It's time to tell the 2°C Emperor that he has no clothes.

Jan 7 Featured Artist: Beatrixarts
Interviews, News / Community
Beatrixarts' designs are like a window into a fairy tale. We are introduced to a new and unexpected side of a wild creature or a favorite character from an old story — for instance, Little Red Riding Hood is exposed as the Big Bad Wolf, a venomous snake sprouts flowers, and a single crow dons a Plague doctor's hat.
Her beautifully-detailed grayscale images are a brief snapshot of an elaborate story; you cannot help but wonder what came before, or what might still be coming.
Beatrixart shares that "home for me is where I feel loved" and that she was only able to become an artist with the support and encouragement of the people around her. Her greatest muse is nature and she is able to find "inspiration from everything around me, especially when I go for long walks in the woods or in rural roads." In contrast, she jokes that she "can't live without" modern technology — like her computer — because she loves listening to music when she works.
Her current project, entitled "Wild Spirit", allows her to try "experimenting with new techniques of representation." The detailed collection is an ornate depiction of animals concealed within overgrown flowers.
She also finds inspiration for her surreal-like designs from Salvador Dali, whom she would love to have met.
She confesses that after she finishes a piece, she must first show it to a friend because "I am my own worst critic" and it is helpful to have an outsider's opinion.
Nonetheless, she knows that her "vision for the future is to succeed in making art." She understands that she must dedicate herself to creating and that the "first step is to give all my best" to art.

In old Tibet, there was no highway in its truest sense, forcing Tibetans to rely on human and animal power in transport. Under the discouraging situation, entering or leaving Tibet was likened to climbing up a ladder leading up to the skies, and it took six to 12 months to make a return trip from Xining in Qinghai or Ya'an in Sichuan to Lhasa.
In the 1950s, the PLA men and local people surmounted great difficulties to build the Qinghai-Tibet and Sichuan-Tibet Highways. Automobiles rumbled into the region for the first time on December 25, 1954.
Nowadays, there are 15 trunk highways in the Tibet Autonomous Region, including the Sichuan-Tibet, Qinghai-Tibet, Xinjiang-Tibet, Yunnan-Tibet and China-Nepal Highways, as well as 375 feeder roads. By the end of 2000, highway mileage open to traffic added up to 22,503 km. Except for Medog County, which became accessible by highway only on seasonal basis in 1994, all the 73 counties, 77 percent of townships and 61.5 percent of the administrative villages in the region are accessible by highway. Asphalt-paved highways extend close to 20,000 km. In the capital city of Lhasa, a modern street network has taken shape, with sand and stone-paved roads having made way for asphalted streets. Major thoroughfares have six lanes apiece.
Despite so much progress, transport in the Tibet Autonomous Region still cannot meet the needs of rapid economic development. As Tibet is the only region in China that is not accessible by railway and waterway, and there are only eight air routes, there is a heavy dependence on highway transport. About 94 percent of goods and 85 percent of passengers are transported into or out of the Tibet Autonomous Region by road. Given this situation, transport construction will continue to center around construction of highway network in the years to come.
In old Tibet there was not a single permanent bridge. Major rivers were spanned by primitive bridges made from rope, or were crossed using yak hide and dugout wooden boats. Today, however, there are 374 bridges in their true sense.
In the 1960s, automobiles were used to transport oil into the Tibet Autonomous Region. In 1977, an oil pipeline was built from Golmud in Qinghai Province to Lhasa, extending 1,080 km. China's longest and the world's highest, the pipeline has 11 pumping stations and one diversion station along the route. A refined oil depot has been built in Lhasa.
By the end of 2001, some 3.1 million tons of oil had been transported to Tibet through this pipeline. This helped put an end to the history in which Tibet was faced with a tense supply of oil.
The Tibet Autonomous Region is still not accessible by rail. In the 1950s, State departments concerned began making preparations for construction of a railway into the region. In the early 1980s, a railway was built from Xining, capital of Qinghai Province in the east, to Nanshankou in Golmud in the west as the first part of an intended Qinghai-Tibet Railway. Extending 846.9 km, the Xining-Golmud Railway is entirely above 3,000 meters, reaching its highest elevation at 3,700 meters.
In November 2000, President Jiang Zemin made an important instruction with regard to construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, demanding redoubled efforts. In December 2000, the State Development Planning Commission summoned a meeting to listen to a report on the preparation work, and submitted a proposal to the State Council for construction of the railway. The railway extends 1,118 km from Golmud in Qinghai Province in the east to Lhasa in Tibet in the west. It will cross a 600 km area that features permafrost, and over 960 km that rises 4,000 meters above sea level.
Construction of the railway started in the second half of 2001.
Aviation develops apace in the Tibet Autonomous Region. In 1956, the PLA Air Force defied the "forbidden zone in the air"to open the air route from Lhasa to Beijing. The ensuing decades saw success in opening domestic air routes from Lhasa to Beijing, Chengdu, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chongqing and Xi'an, as well as an international air route from Lhasa to Kathmandu, capital of Nepal.
The 1,100 km route from Lhasa to Chengdu carries some 100,000 passengers and 1,600 tons of goods a year.
The Gonggar Airport in Lhasa has been renovated to accommodate large jumbo aircraft, including the Boeing 767.
The Bamda Airport, built at an investment of 250 million Yuan, was commissioned in September 1994. The highest airport in the world has opened a route to Chengdu in Sichuan Province and Lhasa in the autonomous region.

To Catch: Eating This Fish Will Save Other Fish
Environmentalists are hoping more lionfish will show up on your dinner plate. The predatory Asian fish, with its distinctive stripes, venomous spines and extravagant fanlike fins, has invaded Caribbean and Atlantic waters, endangering other species and coral reefs. The idea is to make them popular as a food to reduce their numbers. In New York, Ryan Chadwick serves them deliciously fried, in tacos and pan-roasted, in his Bahamian restaurant, Norman's Cay. He is also helping to promote it for retailers, including the Aqua Best market in Chinatown, which gets it fresh, usually once or twice a week. The store will clean and de-spine the one-and-a-half-pound fish for you. Lionfish is mild, with snowy flesh similar to black sea bass, and easy to cook whole: floured and pan-fried, oiled and baked, steamed and in Chinese recipes: $10 a pound at Aqua Best, 276 Grand Street (Chrystie Street); 212-285-1422; Norman's Cay, 74 Orchard Street (Broome Street); 646-481-1229, normanscaynyc.com.

To Nibble: Green Tea, a Bite at a Time
When I was in Kyoto, Japan, last fall, I visited the Malebranche tea and sweets store and bought a couple of boxes of its green-tea cookies, called Cha No Ka, as gifts. Now, just a trip to Dean & DeLuca, or a click of the mouse, is all it takes to buy the delicate verdant cookies sandwiching a layer of matcha-flavored white chocolate: $28 for a box of 10, Dean & DeLuca; deandeluca.com.

To Consider: Look to Paris For New Tastes
This time of year, you'll find plenty of black truffles and oysters in Paris. But in our latest visit, we spotted a few new culinary trends: Parsnips, or panais, have become the vegetable darlings, and they are served fried, puréed, roasted, in soup and even folded into vanilla ice cream, as at Semilla, a little Left Bank bistro. As a cheese course, L'Arpège and other restaurants are serving a single cheese, a well-aged Comté, not in a slab or a slice but in a pile of shavings. And Espelette pepper, the red chile powder from the Basque region, has become almost ubiquitous, dusted over dishes at L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon and David Toutain, among others. Greg Marchand, who owns the restaurant Frenchie, features at least a dozen recipes that call for Espelette pepper in his book, "Frenchie: New Bistro Cooking."

To Serve: The Filling Comes With a Latin Flavor
Fairway stores have added their own line of fresh Latin foods, ready to reheat and serve. There are compact tamales in corn husks with fillings of black bean, chicken or beef, each with a moderate hit of spice and easily warmed in the microwave. Flaky empanadas come in spicy beef or chicken, or a mix of spinach and portobello mushrooms, and require conventional oven heating. There are no preservatives. Green and red salsas are included: $4.99 for four fresh tamales or three empanadas, Fairway Markets.

For several years, Austin Hall of She Wolf Bakery has been making fresh bread daily exclusively for Andrew Tarlow's restaurants. Now Mr. Hall's thick-crusted, deeply bronzed sourdough loaves are available for anyone to buy. Several kinds of She Wolf Bakery breads, including plain, walnut, miche and rye-raisin, are sold daily in Brooklyn at Marlow & Daughters in Williamsburg and Achilles Heel in Greenpoint. The plain $6 sourdough loaf, if ordered online, can also be picked up at other Brooklyn locations like Roman's in Fort Greene, Dandelion Wine in Greenpoint and the Brooklyn Kitchen in Williamsburg: 718-486-3077; shewolfbakery.com .

To Tipple: Salute Mick and Keith With a Drink
When Garry Embry, a native of Louisville, Ky., decided to quit the corporate world and open a bar, specializing in bourbon was a given. Of the more than 100 bourbons lining the bar at the Moonlight Mile, those from Kentucky dominate, but there are a number from New York, city and state. He also carries American whiskeys. He hired Jared Schubert, also from Kentucky, as a consultant to devise most of the cocktails, notable for their lack of overly precious complexity. The bar itself, with seating for 34, is in similar style, and there are simple snacks and plates of cheese and cured meats. "We wanted a place where we'd want to hang out and taste bourbon and whiskey," he said. He and his wife, Becky Embry, named the bar for their favorite Rolling Stones song because it "sounded artistic and not too defined," he said: The Moonlight Mile, 200 Franklin Street (India Street), Greenpoint, Brooklyn; 718-389-3904.

Sophia Ali Used To Sneak Out Of Bed To Watch 'Grey's Anatomy' — Now, She's In The Cast
By Taylor Maple
When Sophia Ali wanted a Grey's Anatomy fix as a child, she had to get crafty. Her mother didn't allow her to watch the show due to the late timeslot and her young age, but Ali didn't let that stop her. "I would sneak around the corner in her room where she couldn't see me, and watch the show from, like, behind a wall," she remembers. As an adult, she doesn't have nearly as hard of a time visiting Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. As one of the newest batch of Grey's Anatomy interns, Sophia Ali is making a splash on the medical drama for more reasons than one.
As Dahlia Quadri, a Muslim doctor who notably dons a hijab throughout the show, Ali heads back to a world that's familiar to her, though Dahlia's life doesn't exactly mirror her own. "I kind of had this goal for myself that I wanted to represent who I was," she says over the phone in mid-October. "I've always felt like Middle Easterners … haven't really been accurately depicted on TV, and Grey's Anatomy has always done a really good job of showing culturally different people, but in a very normal setting."
Though representation of Muslim women on TV is essential, it was important to Ali that Dahlia was a fully fleshed out character, and not one who was defined solely by a religious garment or background. "I wanted her to [say], 'Yeah, I'm a doctor and I wear a hijab, but that's not my thing," Ali says. "'Despite my religious beliefs or whatever, I still have the same issues, and the same things make me happy that make [other] people happy.'"
Though Ali says she has many family members who practice Islam, she was raised in a flexible home that didn't necessarily nudge her toward one religion or another. "If I wanted to be Islamic, I could. If I wanted to be Christian, I could," she shares. "It was all very open. [My parents] didn't want to subject me to [only] one way of life."
Even if her experience with religion doesn't necessarily mirror Dahlia's, she's got plenty of personal experience to draw upon in her portrayal of the doctor. "I grew up in that world, in that Islamic world, because my family is. And they're all Middle Eastern, and so I'm very in touch with that culture, and in touch with that side of my life," she says. "So I'm so grateful that I had a life where I got the opportunity to represent them in the way that I can. And I think that they see it like that too."
Josué Bieri
Dahlia is a relatively new arrival to a hospital that's already filled with dozens of other storylines, but so far, she hasn't found herself lost in the shuffle. Whether she's been chasing a loose dog past operating rooms and nurse's stations, or cracking jokes to an unamused Alex Karev, she's added some welcome humor to a show that can sometimes feel a bit heavy.
Those have been some of Ali's favorite scenes to film, she says, and they probably play so well for viewers because she's so committed to the bit. "They had to put chicken on my face so that the dog would lick me," she laughs. "I don't know why, but I just love doing weird, uncomfortable things that most people wouldn't want to do. I was like, 'Yes, put chicken on my face, please. This is amazing.'"
Despite the fun she's having, her other goals for Dahlia's character are never far from Ali's mind. "Growing up, I always kind of felt unrepresented onscreen. I never really saw anyone who looked like me. I centered a lot of things that I watched around female-centric things that were about female empowerment, and it was so subconscious," she says. "But I realize those were the types of things I wanted to watch, because it made me feel good about myself, and it made me feel like ... I could be whoever I wanted to be. I guess I kind of just want that for girls like me, who are watching TV and need a role model who's like them."
Ali promises that viewers will learn more about Dahlia's personal life as time goes on, though she can't divulge too much just yet. But no matter what happens, she's committed to delivering performance that inspires girls in the way she wanted to be inspired when she was young. Maybe now, she's the one that a little girl somewhere secretly stays up late to watch.


Even though marijuana is still an illegal substance in most states, it turns out that obtaining it may be even easier than you may have previously thought. As a matter of fact, it might just be as easy as asking for it nicely. Of course, youd have to be part of a major pharmaceutical company; wouldnt want to leave that part out. It seems that four major pharmaceutical companies who currently have products being reviewed by the FDA have sent petitions to essentially legalize marijuana and its active chemical THC for use in their products. They claim that their generic products are similar to the synthetic Marinol, and have requested that the naturally derived additives be made legal for their use.
Even though Marinol is a synthetic form of THC, it is of course based on the chemical composition and effects of the naturally occurring form. In fact, most synthetic marijuana is much stronger than the real deal and has sent numerous users to the emergency rooms with increased heart rates and anxiety symptoms. However, because its synthetic, its legal. The DEA is now asking the FDA to extend this loophole to the naturally derived extract, thus making your doctor your new hook up.
The real problem that many are failing to recognize is that any time there is a street drug that can be synthesized and profited from, its quickly turned around as such. For example, drugs that were known as speed for years are now waiting conveniently for you at the checkout counter. Some variations are even prescribed for children for ADHD. Did you ever think of it that way? That the drugs your children may be taking used to be sold on street corners? Then the government found a way to help the big pharmaceutical companies profit from it.


Will use this product most always.
ordering online was easy, delivery was next day. what more can I say. awesome experience!!
Recently bought this product for use on a Subaru Impreza STI. Initial bite of the product is very good. Very low noise to none. Excellent stopping power for normal road use as the car is used as a daily drive. Will buy it again.
Thanks Powerbrake for the excellent service, which included delivery. First time I buy brake pads and they are the correct ones without having to take it back because of size issues. Be sure I'll advise my friends to use Powerbrake for all their braking needs.

Q: Improve speed recommendations Neo4j I'm trying to create a simple recommendation engine using Neo4j and Reco4PHP.
The data model consists of the following nodes and relationship:

(User)-[:HAS_BOUGHT]->(Product {category_id: int}
  )-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(Designer)

In this system I want to recommend products and boost products with the same designer as the user already bought. To create the recommendations I use one Discovery-class and one Post-Processor class to boost the products. See below. This works, but it is very slow. It takes more than 5 seconds to complete, while the datamodel holds ~1000 products and ~100 designers.
// Disovery class

        MATCH (reco) WHERE id(reco) = id
        MATCH (user:User) WHERE id(user) = {userId}
        MATCH (user)-[:HAS_BOUGHT]->(product:Product)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->()<-[:DESIGNED_BY]-(reco)

        RETURN id, count(product) as sharedDesignedBy';

        return Statement::create($query, ['ids' => $ids, 'userId' => $input->identity()]);
    }

    public function postProcess(Node $input, Recommendation $recommendation, Record $record) {
        $recommendation->addScore($this->name(), new SingleScore((int)$record->get('sharedDesignedBy')));
    }

    public function name() {
        return 'reward_shared_designers';
    }
}

I'm happy that it works, but if it takes more than 5 seconds to compute it is not useable in a production environment.
To improve the speed I have:

*

*created indexes in Product:id and Designer:id

*Add node_auto_indexing=true to neo4j.properties.

*Add -Xmx4096m to .neo4j-community.vmoptions
But it doesn't really make a difference.

It is normal that these Cypher queries take more than 5 seconds or are there some improvements possible? :)

A: The main problem is with your post processor query. The goal is :

Boost the recommendation based on the number of products I bought from
  the  designer having designed the recommended item.

Therefore, you can modify a bit your query to match directly the designer and aggregate on it, also it's best to find first the user before the UNWIND as otherwise it will match the user on every iteration of the product ids :
MATCH (user) WHERE id(user) = {userId}
UNWIND {ids} as productId
MATCH (product:Product)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer)
WHERE id(product) = productId
WITH productId, designer, user
MATCH (user)-[:BOUGHT]->(p)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer)
RETURN productId as id, count(*) as score

The complete post processor would look like this :
    public function buildQuery(NodeInterface $input, Recommendations $recommendations)
    {
        $ids = [];
        foreach ($recommendations->getItems() as $recommendation) {
            $ids[] = $recommendation->item()->identity();
        }

        $query = 'MATCH (user) WHERE id(user) = {userId}
        UNWIND {ids} as productId
        MATCH (product:Product)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer)
        WHERE id(product) = productId
        WITH productId, designer, user
        MATCH (user)-[:BOUGHT]->(p)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer)
        RETURN productId as id, count(*) as score';

        return Statement::create($query, ['userId' => $input->identity(), 'ids' => $ids]);
    }

    public function postProcess(Node $input, Recommendation $recommendation, Record $record)
    {
        $recommendation->addScore($this->name(), new SingleScore($record->get('score')));
    }

I have created a repository where I have a fully functional implementation following your domain :
https://github.com/ikwattro/reco4php-example-so
Update after receiving the data

The fact that you have multiple relationships of the same type between a product and a user is adding exponentionality to the number of found patterns.
There are two solutions :
Distinct them and add a WHERE clause for the end of the pattern :
MATCH (user) WHERE id(user) = {userId}
UNWIND {ids} as cardId
MATCH (reco:Card)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer) WHERE id(reco) = cardId
MATCH (user)-[:HAS_BOUGHT]->(x)
WHERE (x)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer)
RETURN cardId as id, count(*) as sharedDesignedBy

In Neo4j 3.0+, you can benefit from the USING JOIN usage and keep the same query as you had :
MATCH (user) WHERE user.id = 245
UNWIND ids as id
MATCH (reco:Card) WHERE id(reco) = id
MATCH (user:User)-[:HAS_BOUGHT]->(card:Card)-[:DESIGNED_BY]->(designer:Designer)<-[:DESIGNED_BY]-(reco:Card)
USING JOIN ON card
RETURN id, count(card) as sharedDesignedBy

Running those queries, I took down the time for discovery + post processing to 190ms with your current dataset.

A: I can only comment on Cypher and even then not so much since you didn't include the function GetItems() or data (cypher dump).
But few things stand out

*

*It will be faster to use label on (reco) I assume it is Product?

*Also I assume this is Designer label that can be put in - [:DESIGNED_BY]->()<-[:DESIGNED_BY]?

*If by any chance GetItems() retrieving items one by one, that might
be the problem and also where indexes needed. By the way why not put that condition in the main query?

I also don't understand indexes on id? If they are Neo4j id, they are physical locations and don't need to be indexed and if they are not why you use id() function?
In conclusion labels might help, but don't expect miracles if your dataset is large, aggregations are not super fast on Neo4j. Counting 10M records with no filters took me 12 seconds.

Product and feature selections
What are product and feature selections and why are they important?
A product is a tangible good that is an output or result of a fabrication, manufacturing, production, or engineering process. Products are commercially distributed, and typically pass through a distribution channel before being consumed or used.
A feature meets a consumer need associated with a product and is seen as a product benefit. In business, a feature is one of the distinguishing characteristics of a product or service that helps boost its appeal to potential buyers.
Product and feature selections involve identifying, evaluating, and selecting one or more products/features that best meet the business strategy, product strategy, or functional requirements.
How does Definitive help facilitate this process?
Product and feature selections are, by their very nature, a team sport. As such, the process must enable significant stakeholder engagement and promote strong teamwork amongst the product and project teams.
Definitive's role is to facilitate: the establishment and weighting of the selection criteria that will be used by the team; the review and evaluation of products or features; trade-off analyses; and the decision-making process.
Definitive also assists the customer by managing the business process, developing job aids and reports, and providing and maintaining the support tools, such as Definitive Pro™ and Microsoft SharePoint.

India among top 3 countries in AI skills : LinkedIn Report
Ashutosh Kumar
India is among one of the top 3 countries in AI skills, as stated by the LinkedIn report
In a new report, LinkedIn report suggested that India has the 3rd highest involvement of AI (artificial intelligence) skills in the world. The report also adds that 46% of the Indian workforce studied in this research didn't need any upskilling, as were up-to-date with their skills. This number stands at 48% for China and 46% for the US. Making us stand with Americans at 2nd position.

— Digital Impact Sq (@DigitalImpactSq) September 21, 2018
Points shared by the LinkedIn study revealed:
AI skills are among the fastest-growing skills on LinkedIn, with a 190% increase in AI skills on LinkedIn from 2015 to 2017
Industries with more AI skills present among their workforce are also the fastest-changing industries
The countries with the highest penetration of AI skills are the US, China, India, Israel, and Germany (in that order)
Walking with the big countries, India marks a place
The research also added that the user and entity big data analytics was adopted by 89% of the companies, while 77% of the Indian companies had already embraced the Internet of Things (IoT).
#AI is poised to disrupt our world. India, the fastest growing large economy has a significant stake in the AI revolution. #NITIAayog acknowledged this in its June 2018 discussion paper titled 'National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence'. #AIForAll https://t.co/VGM8YLnrTY

Mr. Paul Petrone explains the idea behind AI in today's industry
"You are probably reading this and thinking – okay, what do I do? Will a computer steal my job? How do I stay relevant? The good news is that AI won't mean the removal of massive jobs. But it will mean the transformation of millions of jobs, requiring workers to learn new skills to thrive in them. We are already seeing that happen in the software and finance industries, where AI is ubiquitous. Other fields will soon experience a similar transformation as well," wrote Paul Petrone, editor at LinkedIn Learning.
The LinkedIn study results are in line with the academic study titled The Augmented Human Enterprise by Goldsmiths, the University of London, and Automation Anywhere.
This study revealed that 71% of Indian respondents said that their employees used RPA and AI-based augmentation to its full potential, it is the highest proportion for any of the four markets surveyed.
While 66% of Indian respondents said that they are empowered to take risks, 77% said that their organization prioritized employee development.

"I have been in severe pain for almost a year. I couldn't turn over in bed without moaning. My lower back, the back of my thighs, my buttocks and my neck hurt so very bad. I went to my doctor and he gave me strong pain pills which caused me to vomit. He also sent me for x-rays, and I was diagnosed with severe arthritis. He then sent me to physical therapy. Therapy helped a little but I was still in severe pain every morning, I could barely walk when I tried to get out of bed. I did some sgtretch exercises which helped a little. I also tried some supplements - gelatin and Glucosamine Chondroitin. These didn't help me.
"I got a bad backache that wouldn't go away within 2-3 days so my former boss told me to get help from a chiropractor doctor. He helped me tremendously.
"I had some back issues and also a stiff neck. Because of chiropractic care I am able to do things I wouldn't be able to do without pain. Having a sound back takes care of everything and provides for wellness others can't experience or aren't willing to experience.
"I had severe pain and very limited mobility in my right shoulder. Now all the pain has subsided and I once again have range of motion in my shoulder. The unexpected surprise is that I have had a noticeable decrease in headaches and a stiff neck. I would highly recommend chiropractic care. The staff in this office were very compassionate and worked around my schedule so I could make appointments.

# Simulate Mobile Devices with Device Mode {: .page-title }

{% include "web/_shared/contributors/pbakaus.html" %}

Use Chrome DevTools' Device Mode to build mobile-first, fully responsive websites. Learn how to use it to simulate a wide range of devices and their capabilities.

Warning: Device Mode gives you a close approximation as to how your site
will look on a mobile device, but to get the full picture you should always
test your site on real devices. DevTools can't emulate the performance
characteristics of mobile devices, for example.

## In a nutshell

* Emulate your site across [different screen sizes and resolutions](/web/tools/chrome-devtools/device-mode/emulate-mobile-viewports), including Retina displays.
* Responsively design by visualizing and [inspecting CSS media queries](/web/tools/chrome-devtools/iterate/device-mode/media-queries).
* Evaluate your site's load performance with the [Network Conditions drawer](emulate-mobile-viewports#network), without affecting traffic to other tabs.
* Accurately [simulate device input](/web/tools/chrome-devtools/device-mode/device-input-and-sensors) for touch events, geolocation, and device orientation

## Toggle Device Mode {: #toggle }

Toggle the **Device Mode** button to turn Device Mode on or off.

![Initial start for device mode](imgs/device-mode-initial-view.png)

When Device Mode is on, the icon is blue
(![device mode on](imgs/device-mode-on.png)).

When it's off, the icon is grey
(![device mode off](imgs/device-mode-off.png)).

Device Mode is enabled by default.

You can also toggle Device Mode by pressing
Command+Shift+M (Mac) or
Ctrl+Shift+M (Windows, Linux).
To use this shortcut your mouse needs to be focused on your DevTools window.
If it's focused on your viewport, you'll trigger [Chrome's switch user
shortcut](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/157179).

It is a kind of pituitary tumor. The pituitary gland is part of our endocrine system, which consists of glands that produce hormones that regulate processes throughout our body. Besides the pituitary gland, the endocrine system includes the thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, pancreas, ovaries and testicles.
Most pituitary tumors are benign. Up to 20% of people have pituitary tumors. However, many of these tumors do not cause symptoms and are never diagnosed during the person's lifetime.
Nelson's syndrome is an iatrogenic condition. Nelson syndrome is a rare clinical manifestation of an enlarging pituitary adenoma that can occur following bilateral adrenalectomy performed in the treatment of Cushing disease (CD).
In the Nelson syndrome, rapid growth of an adrenocorticotropic hormone-secreting following bilateral adrenalectomy causes extreme elevation of melanocortin levels and hyperpigmentation. The Nelson syndrome is a human model in which temporal associations among body weight, skin pigmentation, and high circulating levels of melanocortins might be observed. Nelson's tumor cells differ to some degree from those from Cushing's tumors. Recent research underscores the intriguing possibility that somatic mutations in the glucocorticoid receptor gene might contribute to its pathogenesis. The incidence of Nelson's syndrome after adrenalectomy is still a matter of dispute, in part explained by lack in uniformity of definition of the syndrome. Postoperative radiotherapy is indicated in patients with residual tumor or extracellular extension. Recent reports claim benefit from long-acting somatostatin analogues, although long-term success remains to be assessed. Notwithstanding improved treatment, Nelson's syndrome shares with Cushing's disease the inevitable tendency to recur. Therefore, life-long management of these patients is mandatory.
Nelson syndrome occurred formerly as a result of bilateral adrenalectomy for Cushing's disease. Resulting in absent negative feedback of cortisol on the pituitary adenoma, with expansion of the pituitary adenoma with headache, bitemporal hemianopia and panhypopit eventually.
Hereditary disease like multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, carney complex, isolated familial acromegaly.
Change in menses or early menopause.
A key finding is darkening of skin color and increased pigmentation of nevi.
Because ACTH-secreting tumors are typically aggressive and invasive, patients may develop large tumors resulting in visual loss, pituitary failure and headache.
ACTH, AM cortisol, midnight salivary cortisol.
LH, FSH, estradiol or testosterone.
Dynamic stimulation/suppression testing may be useful in select cases to further evaluate pituitary reserve and/or for pituitary hyperfunction.
Oral glucose GH suppression test.
Pharmacotherapy. Most useful in prolactinomas, alone or with other intervention. May be used in certain other functioning tumors as adjunctive therapy along with surgical and/or radiotherapy.
Surgery. Useful when medical or radiotherapy fails. Surgery provides prompt relief from excess hormone secretion and mass effect.
Radiation Therapy. Reserved for patients with larger tumors and/or persistent hormonal hyperfunction despite surgical intervention (Conventional radiotherapy, Gamma knife radiosurgery).
Today, with greater awareness of NS and with the availability of modern neuroimaging and immunoassays, tumor progression can be detected much earlier and thus at a smaller lesion size. Surgery remains the primary mode of therapy. Radiotherapeutic protocols offer additional options for treatment. Although not widely accepted, some pharmacotherapeutic measures can also be offered to patients with resistant lesions. If untreated, NS adenomas often become markedly aggressive and may cause death in some patients, usually through brain invasion.

Compass Minerals was named one the "Most Improved Corporate Citizens" in 2015 within the Russell 1000 stock market index as determined by Corporate Responsibility Magazine, a publication recognized as the leading voice for corporate responsibility.
The magazine's list ranks each Russell 1000 company according to performance on 298 data points related to corporate responsibility. These data points, gathered from publicly available information such as the Compass Minerals sustainability report, measure transparency, accountability and business success. Being included in this ranking is a positive reflection on the company's commitment to transparency, as exemplified by the publication of a data-driven sustainability report that conforms to the Global Reporting Initiative™ G4 framework.


Ratifying the Paris Agreement - The UK has become the 111th country to ratify the Paris climate agreement, which aims to avoid the most devastating effects of climate change by cutting carbon emissions. The foreign minister, Boris Johnson, who has flirted with climate scepticism, signed the pact in London on Thursday after a parliamentary deadline passed on Wednesday night, with no objections raised.
It will be interesting to see how the government delivers on their 'commitments', in the face of recent annoucements to cancel the Green Deal, discourage the development of community energy, build a third airport runway, promote fracking and maintain fossil fuel subsidies.
Air Quality in Marlborough - Cold, sunny, Winter days promote a build up of air pollutants, due to the 'inversion effect'. On the first day of December air pollution was HIGH, across the South West, according to DEFRA. However, Marlborough's Particulate Monitor on London Road is still out of action. This means that all the data that was collected for the first 9 months of 2016 is now meaningless and could put Wiltshire Council in breach of environmental laws.
A recent UNDP report states that the costs involved in getting rid of fossil fuels, would be saved by the elimination of health care costs, associated respiratory diseases due to air pollution.
Look out for TM's petition calling for a 20mph speed limit in Marlborough to reduce air pollution and improve road safety.
Neighbourhood Planning - Sam and Peter have been working as volunteers on the Marlborough Area Neighbourhood Planning committee (MANP). You may have taken part in one of the local consultations already. Sam has also been involved with the sub-committee that is working on the terms of reference for a housing needs survey. A questionnaire has now been prepared to capture your family's views of their housing needs. We are also keen to find out about the energy-efficiency of the local housing stock and locate areas of fuel poverty. This information will be used once grants become available for home insulation. You will receive your questionnaire in the post in January 2017. Please do take care to fill it in - the first one returned will receive a prize of £100!


I'm not too sure but maybe the amount of points received by building a window can be edited in _zm.gsc or _zm_spawner.gsc?
Yes, it compiled before. The error just suddenly happened, I didn't add anything to my map. I added a script that somebody gave me and I removed it, but it didn't change anything.
Hi. I am unable to compile my WAW map in Launcher as it is throwing out this error. I have no idea what is causing this and how I can fix it.

MH370 & Sunken Treasure
Single African Aviation Market Cracks 23 nods
Desmond Latham
A blog site run by aviation expert and broadcaster Desmond Latham
United CEO Grovels, Alitalia Goes Bust (Again) & SAA's bunga-bunga
May 3, 2017 May 4, 2017 desmondlatham

Yes, its the age of jump on the bandwagon. At least once you're on the bandwagon, its unlikely someone will knock you out and drag you off semi-conscious. United Airlines CEO Oscar Munoz's was himself dragged before the U.S. House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee this morning to answer questions from really aggressive congressmen and women after an incident where a passenger was forcibly removed from one of his airliners.
Dr Dao – assaulted and thrown off a plane after buying a ticket at United Airlines. ©Facebook
It took Munoz a couple of attempts to apologise to the 69 year-old doctor who was summarily removed from a UAL flight in Chicago – but only after two oafs had managed to smack his face against the arm of a seat, removing two teeth and leaving him bloody and dazed. United has already reached an out of court settlement with Dr Dao who probably can now pay to have the surgery to replace his two front teeth.
Another United Employee about to select passengers for disembarkation (no not really but the meme is funny).
United has now instituted a change in policy, now offering passengers up to $10 000 to give up their seats if the airline overbooks. If I was on board a plane I wouldn't accept anything less than $10k knowing that the other passengers probably know what I know. Imagine the auction. Here's a possible script:
Pilot X : Ok, I'm going to start at $2000 any takers?
FX : Silence.
Pilot X : Ok, we'll raise that to $4000 – come on everybody!
FX: Silence.
Pilot X : Ok, we'll go the whole way – anyone taking it at $10 000?
FX: The sounds of screams as many passengers clamber over each other to disembark.
This moment needs some thought. It's one of those really interesting events where both Republicans and Democrats agree government should intervene. As the US Secretary of Transport signs away laws diminishing airline responsibility (see this), events have conspired against light touch government. That's because Senators and Congressmen and Women take flights on the same commercial airliners back and forth across the US and have found the experience, let's say, less than welcoming.
Click for more abuse here.
So both sides of that American political pastiche pie are now calling for action by the government to assist airlines in doing the right thing. This has partially come about as competition diminishes and the consumer gets shafted. I love aviation and what's just happened in the US is both upsetting and inevitable. The simple matter is if you give shareholders complete control over business without proper competition, they cut every corner possible to make a quick buck. Republican head of the House transportation committee chair, Bill Shuster, has warned that airlines are about to be hit by a one size-fits-all rule to improve customer care.
Alitalia Goes Bust – Again
So its with a heavy heart that I join the Pope in blessing Alitalia because its filed for bankruptcy. For the third time since 2008. And its likely to be three strikes and out because the Italian government won't bail it again and the Pope, who flies Alitalia and blessed the airline in 2008, probably won't waste his important breath this time around but just shrug and take Lufthansa or Emirates.
Silvio "bunga-bunga" Burlusconi. ©Wikipedia
Alitalia has cost taxpayers a reported seven billion euros in bailouts. The big issue in Italy is that Alitalia used to be one of the biggest employers in that country, but its slipped since being founded in 1947.
The ailing airline has been placed in the hands of the administrators who have to turn it around in 180 days, sell or liquidate the operation. As with South Africa, citizens are outraged by suggestions that the state should continue bailing out a loss-leader. It's Alitalia's staff who're not really helping matters by refusing to consider pay cuts or retrenchments. From the New York Times by way of Il Sole 24 Ore's Simone Filippetti:
"It seems that Alitalia workers have all gone nuts. Why did they reject a plan that involved a hard sacrifice but a chance of recovering to instead face the risk of a total company disruption and liquidation, and ultimately all lose their jobs anyway?"
SAA Haggard & Bereft
SAA, once the darling of African aviation is now the toothless hag. It's a blue rinse Afro with the faint whiff of aunty's spent nickers in charge. SAA has become most famous in its home territory for the same sins as Alitalia. To whit – bailouts.
It also failed to submit financial statements for two years and held its results for 2015/16 back after the Treasury refusal to provide an additional R5 billion in additional guarantees against ongoing loans. Eventually Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan was pressured into securing that loan in September 2016. But the parallels with Italy are noteworthy, both national carrier and national disgrace. Italy was run by a borderline sexual deviant for years (Silvio Berlusconi), host of bunga-bunga parties for his echelon of friends who cavorted around mansions on tax-payer's expense. During his tenure, Alitalia dive-bombed banks for two loans.
More great news from Dudu Myeni, as she appeared on Facebook recently in trademark Afro sans blue.
Yes, President Jacob Zuma has created his own plethora of putridity by cadre-deploying into SAA, Eskom, SABC, etc etc etc and left himself ethically stranded like a pirate with a platoon of prostitutes on an island without a shower.
Cmde Jacob Zuma.
One difference is that South Africa's government has agreed to another round of save SAA Chairperson Dudu Myeni's face. In his last budget speech before he was zapped by Zuma, Gordhan announced that during 2017/18, government will provide some financial support to SAA in a manner that does not increase the budget deficit.
We look forward to seeing how money is thrown at the aviation hole called SAA without increasing the deficit. Unless it turns around properly, it won't be considered a going concern but going going gone and we're concerned. The big problem is the airline is now going to have to borrow against an interest rate that is above 8% – or what we generally call "junk". But its something to which I'm sure the new Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba, who is a social policy expert, is applying his pedagogic mind.
Enough of this comparison fun and games, some people have to fly.
