In spite of the downtrodden state of the cryptocurrency market, which on Tuesday struggled to remain north of US$300 billion (in market cap), there continues to be a stream of encouraging lead indicators in one of the most important nations for blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.
Indeed, as far as South Korea is concerned, it would appear that the only crypto-related element not seeing marked improvement in recent times is the asking price for Bitcoin (BTC), and most other cryptocurrencies for that matter.
Just this week, a number of breakthroughs have occurred in South Korea. Perhaps a bi-product of the overly bearish market conditions, these developments appear to have gone largely unacknowledged by the crypto community; buried under the ever-fruitful cryptocurrency news cycle.
Starting with news out of The Korea Times on Monday, and it was reported that Bithumb, the nation's premier crypto exchange, finalized a partnership with Korea Pay's Service, a mobile payment service provider which operates mobile gift certificates and electronic payment transactions to over 200 franchises.
The collaborative efforts of Bithumb and Korea Pay's Services, which the popular virtual currency exchange described as "a landmark step," will work towards making cryptocurrency available at some 6,000 outlets by the end of 2Q18. This figure is anticipated to balloon to 8,000 by the close of 2018.
Also coming in the final week of March was a major announcement by way of Upbit, the second largest cryptocurrency exchange (by 24-hour volume) in South Korea. Following in the footsteps of US-headquartered Coinbase just weeks prior, Upbit revealed their plans to launch a cryptocurrency index service, Upbit Cryptocurrency Index (UBCI).
Providing specifications around UBCI was Lee Seok-wo, the President of Upbit's parent company, Dunamu. He outlined how their virtual currency index (the first of its kind in South Korea) will comprise four indices: the Strategy Index, the Bitcoin Index, the Market Index, and the Sector Index. The latter three are set to launch next month, whilst the Strategy Index is without a timeframe as yet.
These encouraging developments from as critical a crypto player as South Korea, particularly amid such bearish market conditions, is consistent with recent analysis which shone light on the fact that each major South Korean cryptocurrency trading platform had attracted the financial backing of some of the nation's largest multi-billion conglomerates in various sectors like insurance, telecommunications, gaming, and Internet.
In demonstrating the sheer volume of financial capital backing domestic exchanges like Korbit, Upbit, Bithumb, and OKCoin, the aforementioned Dunamu company represents just the seventh most valuable South Korean enterprise (by market cap) that has invested in their nation's crypto exchanges.

Coverage Upgraded
The ProMax has recently been upgraded to provide Australia wide coverage (excluding the tip of Cape York) for all VAST and Foxtel channels. The ProMax team has done extensive field testing across the Nullabor Plain and in the Kimberley's, Western QLD, the Gulf of Carpentaria and Central Australia. We have increased the antennas gain to cover these low signal area's and provide all channels from Optus C1 and D3 across Australia. Combine the increased signal gain with the compact size and why would you want one of the old style large oval dishes.
Coverage Map Explained
This map has been designed to let you know where you can receive both VAST Satellite TV and Foxtel Satellite TV around Australia with the ProMax Automatic satellite system. The areas on this map in green are within the coverage area for the ProMax, this is the majority of Australia. The area in white you should expect variable or no coverage. With any signal coverage map there can be some areas within this map with lower than expected signal levels, we have tried to assure accuracy within this map.
How does satellite TV work
Satellite TV comes from satellites than are in a geostationary orbit (they don't move and are locked to the earth's gravity) so they are always in the same position. In Australia the satellite TV signals from VAST and Foxtel services are spread across both Optus C1 & Optus D3 satellites. These two satellites co-exist in the same location. The satellite beams do vary across the two satellites and this is why in some locations one satellite could be stronger than the other. Satellite TV providers specially design the beam of the satellite to cover where the population lives or travels. Satellite TV signal is not effected by hills/terrain or distance from terrestrial transmitters like normal terrestrial TV (digital TV) as the signal comes from a satellite in the sky. Satellite signals can be effected by rain, heavy cloud, overhanging trees or by a building blocking the northern sky (the building would need to be very close to the system to block the signal). When a satellite signal drops out or can't be received during a storm or heavy cloud normally you just need to wait until this weather event passes and then normal service should resume. If you are in a lower signal area a lesser rain or cloud event could block the signal, again just wait for the weather to improve for normal service to resume.

Q: Spring boot - JPA with QueryDSL custom query implementation - entity not mapped error I am new to spring boot and trying to generate custom queries using Querydsl. I want to generate queries based on the condition what user chooses.
I have written a manager class for this, there I will parse the user selection and have to generate the queries.
Manager class

    BooleanExpression active = definition.deleted.isFalse();
    List<Definition> ww =new JPAQuery(em)

     .list(definition);

        //Method2
        List<Definition> def = em.createQuery(
                   "SELECT id FROM definition WHERE deleted = false",Definition.class
                  ).getResultList();

    }
    }

Entity Class
@Entity

With sharp looks that are sure to catch the eye, the Infiniti Q60 is one of the best looking luxury sports coupes on the market.
The 2018 Q60 is offered in two models – 2.0t and 3.0t – and four trim levels: Pure, Luxe, Sport, and Red Sport 400. Pure trim is only available on 2.0t models, while Sport and Red Sport 400 are only available on 3.0t models. All 2018 Q60s are available with rear-wheel or optional all-wheel drive.
Q60 2.0t models have a turbocharged, 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that generates 208 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. 3.0t models get a twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter V6 engine that creates 300 horsepower and 295 lb.-ft. of torque in Luxe and Sport trims. The Q60 Red Sport 400 has a higher output of 400 horsepower and 350 lb.-ft. of torque. Both Q60 engines pair to a 7-speed automatic transmission; paddle shifters are standard on Sport and Red Sport 400 models.
Despite being absolutely gorgeous, the 2018 Infiniti Q60 has an identity crisis. It's so obsessed with providing comfort and top-of-the-line technology to its owners that it ends up detracting from the vehicle's driving experience. This is particularly evident with regard to the coupe's adaptive steering setup, which is, in theory, able to be dialed in however the driver prefers. However, in actuality, it ends up being too involved for its own good, hindering the Q60's driving experience in the process.
While the Q60 has the makings of a great performance car, Infiniti chooses to utilize all of its technology to pamper its occupants, resulting in a sports coupe that, for the most part, performs best in a straight line. At the end of the day, the Q60 feels like it was designed more for a leisurely cruise than for an adventurous run down some backroads.

This school is continued by the Ars Antiqua and a century later, in the fourteenth by the Ars Nova.
The Ars Antiqua is characterized by the creation of the Ars Nova Motet and the perfection of all medieval polyphonic music that carries the musical revival.
UNIT 5 DAY 3 - Gregorian Chant.
② Rhythm of the Plaing Chant.
Text creates a prosodic rhythm that follows the music.
Gregorian chant is the most important musical creation of the Middle Ages. It was the music that was compiled to create an official canon of works that could be used in religious celebrations. They were commonly parts of the Mass, psalms and hymns.
It was monophonic music with religious text in Latin. His rhythm is prosodic and was composed in two styles: syllabic (each syllable corresponds to a note) or melismatic (each syllable corresponds to one or more notes).
The text created a prosodic rhythm that was followed by the music.
Prosody in modern Songwriting and as a help for Autism integration.
UNIT 5 DAY 4 - Musical aesthetics in the Middle Ages.
① Examples of analogies used in Plainsong.
If the word is important, and the melody is lengthened and highlighted with many notes. If we talk about ascension into heaven, the melody leads to the highest notes.
This music is antiphonal, with the choir divided into two or by contrasting a soloist with the choir, playing a game of questions and answers also called responsory.
Plainsong employs many effects to underscore the message of the text. As a vocal music, it took advantage of the possibilities of the choir, even being only a monophonic music.
If the word is important, the melody is lengthened and highlighted with many notes. If we talk about ascension into heaven, for example, the melody leads to the highest possible notes.
in important words (in red).
This music is antiphonal, with the choir divided into two or by contrasting soloist with the choir, playing a game of questions and answers also called responsory.
1. Medieval Music is characterized by moving from monody to polyphony.
2. Plain Chant and Minstrel music are the Medieval Monody.
3. Mozarabic chant is a singing practiced by Christians living in Al-Andalus and the Jarchas are the Music of Al-Andalus minstrels.
4. The Notre Dame School creates polyphonic medieval music with Organum and Discantus.
5. Ars Antiqua is characterized by the creation of the Motet.
6. Ars Nova is characterized for the perfection of all medieval polyphonic music that carries the musical Renaissance.


I love the look of people shots with a ring flash. but ring flashes are quite expensive. a colleague tipped me off that Rayflash works really well. I took it one step further and was quietly told by someone else that even less expensive than a Rayflash is some cheap made in China knock off called an O-flash. so I ordered one on ebay, $50, total including shipping....and this thing works incredibly well.
so for anyone else wanting a cheap ring flash system for shooting stock instead of spending a ton on a better one, the O-flash is a good little knock off.

Web publishing is only applicable if your organization used FirstClass prior to version 12.0.
The Web Publishing folder on your Desktop is the place to put material (web pages) that you want others to view using their web browsers. FirstClass publishes the contents of Web Publishing on the web.
In addition to regular web pages, you can publish lists of uploaded files (listing folders), blogs, podcasts, links, and calendars. You can organize this material into folders, and you determine the order in which pages appear.
The left pane lists the contents of your Web Publishing folder in a tree view. To open a web page, select it in the tree view. The right pane displays the opened web page.
The tree view in your Web Publishing folder controls the structure your website will have. All objects directly under Web Publishing (as opposed to inside a folder) will be displayed in a navigation bar on your home page. Their order in FirstClass is the same as their order on your website.
To change the order, simply drag the objects in the tree view. You can also drag objects into and out of folders.
The first object in the tree view that isn't a folder or a link is automatically your home page.
Your website's general appearance (colors, navigation bars, and so on) is controlled by a template. To see what your website looks like by default, click View in Browser. You can give certain objects that you create for your website a difference appearance.

You can provide visitors to your website with a collection of useful links. These links are simply FirstClass bookmarks that you put in a web content folder.
1 Create the bookmarks in your Bookmarks folder.
2 Create a web content folder in Web Publishing.
3 Create a standard web page inside this web content folder to introduce your links.
4 Copy or move your bookmarks to the web content folder.
When visitors open your links folder, they will see your introductory page, with the list of links in the navigation bar.
If you used a pre-8.3 FirstClass client to create website content, you are free to do nothing, and your content will continue to render on the web. You can add more content just as you always have.
If you don't want to use the new web publishing application, don't click the Appearance button. Clicking this button tells FirstClass to use the new web publishing features for this container, and your web pages won't display as you expect.
But you won't be able to use the full power of the web publishing application. For example, you won't be able to view your content on the web directly from the client, or apply appearance templates.
You also need to know that any HTML pages won't take on the navigation bars or other formatting provided by the templates. These pages will basically be standalone pages in your site.
For these reasons, we recommend that you make your existing content compatible with the web publishing application.
1 Move your Web Publishing folder off your Desktop to another location.
This folder is the My Web Site/Home Page folder, renamed. It contains your existing content, unchanged. Moving this folder archives its contents, so that you don't lose them as you switch over.
2 Open Web Publishing from the menu or navigation bar.
This creates a new Web Publishing folder on your Desktop. This will be your new web publishing environment.
3 Remove any specially named home page document in your old content.
Web publishing can't work properly with content that includes a document named home page, index.htm/.html, home.htm/.html, or default.htm/.html.
You can either rename your old home page document before copying it, or copy its contents to a web page created in the Web Publishing folder on your Desktop.
4 Copy your content from the archived Web Publishing folder to the Web Publishing folder on your Desktop.
We recommend that you do this one page at a time and view each page on the web, to isolate any problems.
When all content has been copied over safely, you can delete the archived Web Publishing folder.

Twitter Contests Drive Traffic, Member Relationships
Twitter is a versatile platform, and contests are a dynamic way for credit unions to build an online community of current and prospective members.
By Thomas Cullen
Amy McGraw, marketing director at Public Service Credit Union ($119.6M, Romulus, MI) had been on Twitter for almost a year. She was tweeting under a personal account and learning how to use the site. She didn't want to be hasty.
"Learning the ins and outs of how to use Twitter and the etiquette of using it properly was important before bringing my brand to it," McGraw says.
After she felt comfortable, she decided to bring the idea of using the social media site for business purposes to PSCU executives.
Once she got the go-ahead, she launched the account (follow her @PSCU_Amy) and started the task of gaining followers. One method she employed was starting a contest on Twitter. She used the strategy to generate interest and also to test the effectiveness of integrating social media such as the PSCU blog and the credit union's Facebook account.
"To see how well this could work, I held a 'Tweet the Love' contest," McGraw says. "It was simple. Over the course of a few days, I asked members to tweet anything about PSCU that they liked as long as they included #MyPSCU in the tweet. Then, it would count in the contest."
The contest generated a huge response. "'Tweet the Love' was a big hit," McGraw says. "Bigger than I ever thought it was going to be."
The numbers back up her feelings. Over the 10 days of the contest, there were 130 tweets related to it. McGraw doesn't know exactly how many re-tweets there were but is confident there was a considerable amount. Her number of followers skyrocketed, too; she reports going from approximately 100 to nearly 300. Most of the newcomers were members of the credit union.
In addition to promoting items on Twitter (and Facebook), McGraw also lets members know that connecting with her via the two social media channels will give them access to exclusive promotions. She uses social media not only to enhance public relations but also to promote the public relations vehicles. Sharp move.
Despite the value, contests on Twitter are not without drawbacks.
"The only downside of a contest is that you get followers who sign up for Twitter to be a part of the contest but then never use it again," McGraw says.
There are also potential pitfalls if the proper research isn't taken. Don't just dive into Twitter without due diligence and trial runs.
"If you jump onto Twitter and just hold a contest before you know what you're doing, you could do yourself and your brand more harm than good," McGraw says. She encourages prospective users to tweet everyday (multiple times per day), and reminds users that it is a conversational platform, so always be forthcoming and transparent.
The tweets and followers generated by the contest are great, but they're not everything for McGraw. Relationships are the true indicator of success.
"A real measure is when I get a tweet from a member saying they are going to bring their mom, friend, sister, or brother in to open an account or to be part of a promo they saw from one of my tweets," McGraw says.
The world of communication might be changing, but the fundamentals of credit unions aren't going anywhere. People, whether they're tweeting or not, are king (and queen).

Calling out the greatest evil
By Staff | on November 18, 2015
By James Giago Davies
Iyeska Journal
There is something in Indian country that towers above the top of Harney Peak, something carved into the hearts and minds of Lakota people more indelibly than the faces on Mount Rushmore.
It is bigger than any town, any reservation, bigger than the entire Black Hills, something the Lakota seek out when they are happy, when they are sad, when they are bored, when they are excited. From Fort Yates to Pine Ridge, from Rapid City to the Missouri River, there is no place it has not been, no life it has not touched.
My mother kept us from it for a long time, kept it outside our door. She isolated us from the rest of her old reality and never talked about it. But we would walk up the street, the park was just blocks away, and every kid had to go there: there were swings, and a swimming pool, you could fish in Rapid Creek. That was the first time we saw it.
Every park is lined with trees, and under the trees people were sitting and lying on the grass. We talked to those people, said hi, and for the most part they smiled and said hi back. Most of them were disheveled, rough looking, and their clothes were tattered and grimy, but that is not what a child remembers most about them. They had an odor made us step back, not because they were dirty and needed a bath, but an odor that warns your nostrils of danger, not from these people, but from the thing that put them under those shade trees. Like the old Lynyrd Skynyrd tune: "Ewww, that smell, can't you smell that smell? Ewww, that smell, the smell of death surrounds you…"
Like no other smell in Lakota country, this smell is the smell of death.
You would think, given the destructive power of this thing, given the lives it has ravaged, the lives it has taken, the families it has destroyed, the culture it threatens to destroy, people would have galvanized against it long ago, driven it from the sanctity of their homes, gotten it as far away as possible from the people they love. You would think they would gather in traditional dress, mount horses, and embark in long protest rides against it. You would think they would gather in Pierre, in Washington, united and determined to end the horror this evil thing has caused.
But they don't.
That is a very common behavior in Lakota country—when something is too scary and bad and threatening, you never talk about it. You try to fix other broken, imperfect things that you can face, like that XL Pipeline, but this one thing you don't face, you don't bring it up. See, if that pipeline gets stopped we have done something important, saved us from something that would destroy the quality of our life. There is no way that is a bad thing.
These are legitimate concerns, these other things we protest, necessary, progressive changes in the lives of a wronged people, always striving for social justice and a better life for all Lakota, striving to preserve the things of value, the land, the traditions, the culture.
"Big tobacco is killing my people," a Lakota woman once said on a TV commercial, and Big Tobacco is killing her people, but there is no commercial about this other thing, no "Big Alcohol is killing my people."
Nothing has killed more Indians than booze. Not poverty, not violence, not disease, not stepping on a roller skate descending the basement steps. Alcohol is the undisputed, undefeated all-time heavyweight champion of killing Lakota, and all the other things that kill Lakota combined can't hold a candle next to it.
But at this very minute some Lakota someplace are drinking to ominous excess in front of the children. Some Lakota children are taking their first drink. Their parents were maybe in Washington protesting that pipeline, and they gathered with their friends in a grove of trees, sitting on an old car seat, passing a jar back and forth, and they had a wonderful time, because this moment they share is a rite of passage, a twisted sick distortion the Wasicu has given to their culture, far more powerful and destructive than small pox infected blankets ever hoped of being.
The Lakota don't stop alcohol by banning it; they stop it by not drinking.
They stop it by forcing a daily conversation about it, by teaching their children at home, in school, to stay away from it. They call it out for what it is, the single greatest threat to all things Lakota, and they point to the graphic evidence of its destructive power. They force everything else off the stove top, off every burner, until they can face the reality of what alcohol is, what it has done, what it continues to do.
There is shame in how alcohol makes us "weak and foolish." Shame in the hearts and minds of a people who have spent tens of thousands of years proving they are brave and strong and resourceful, shame in how they cannot protect themselves from this thing the Wasicu gave them, and how—when under the influence of this thing—the people they love and cherish, have no greater threat to fear, no greater enemy, than their drunken self.
There is a selfishness, a depravity in the use of this horrible "gift" from the Wasicu, no words, however eloquent, can adequately call out, but the saddest thing is, people like alcohol, they don't want to sober up, they don't want to face life without their favorite, addictive coping mechanism, and there is nothing they won't stoop do, no act too heinous they won't perpetrate to defend their alcohol addiction, against the culture and traditions they claim to honor and respect, against the trusting and vulnerable loved ones at their inebriated mercy.
You want the power to stave off the Wasicu destruction of the Lakota world? You want the wherewithal to have the strength, smarts and resolve to champion all that is worthwhile about the culture you love? Then get sober and stay sober and lead by example.
Man up — face that shame, talk about it out in the open, in every private and public place, sacrifice your addiction to something worth more than you and a billion wretched others just like you — the people you love.

Want to be a smart cities leader? Don't do these four things
Everybody wants to talk when things are going well, but a new report on smart cities successes uncovers some valuable insights by looking deeper at the underachievers. One key lesson: forgetting who your smart cities initiatives are for will put you on a fast track to failure.
The report, Rethinking Smart Cities from the Ground Up, was produced by the UK research organization Nesta and funded by Council Associate Partner Intel. It identifies bad behaviors and suggests more effective courses of action. In short, cities that speak more than they listen are destined to spend more than they should for underwhelming results.
Don't make these mistakes
Nesta says the first mistake lower-performing cities make is to start with technology and work back from there. While this approach can work to boost the economy -- the investment does put people to work -- it may not be sustainable since it's not designed specifically to address and solve pressing community needs.
It also finds that people responsible for the initiatives often become isolated when they should be outgoing. It says when city project leaders do seek wisdom from the outside, they frequently fall into the trap of only talking to other technologists. They gain technical wisdom, but fail to see how to convert that into practice.
While many smart cities projects are about collecting and using data to drive improvements, Nesta finds the underachievers make use of very little data in scoping and designing their projects. Part of that is because these cities may not look very hard for it, but the report also says it would also help if more cities shared the results -- good or bad -- of their pilot projects.
Finally, it says citizens are often left out. While the initiatives are intended to benefit them, they are rarely asked about what they want. By depriving the citizens of an opportunity to contribute, any results -- even successes -- are less likely to be noticed.
So what should cities do?
Nesta's report isn't all doom and gloom; it outlines steps cities can take to increase their chances for success. A key one: Report co-author Tom Saunders writes that cities have to give people as much consideration as they do technology.
The report also advocates that cities open civic innovation labs. These labs create opportunities to collaborate with the public. It says they should also be used to generate data -- data the city should analyze to determine if the project will deliver the promised benefits or whether it should be redesigned. In particular, Nesta says cities should look to Seoul's Innovation Bureau and New Urban Mechanics, which is working in Boston, Philadelphia and the Utah Valley, for inspiration.
Open data is also key. Nesta says smart cities projects themselves should be open. Project results should be available and citizens should be allowed to help solve problems.

Download file to see previous pages Reconstruction of an event is different from the event itself. It is through selection that a series of interpretive acts performed by historians proceed to do business. The initial stages of research conducted by historians create the importance of having a selection on the information to display. Gathering information, interpretation and the analysis necessitate the reconstruction process. Any piece of evidence presented for analysis plays an important role in the analysis stage. A historian learns on displaying the evidence of information in the same way as evident.
As historians attempt to reconstruct the future, an analysis of English settlements in Virginia creates an accurate picture. The difficulty felt while analyzing any document becomes apparent for the historians. Davidson and Lytle analyze the Virginians as an enterprising lot. The Virginians gave American its first representation assembly and England a fashionable vice which was tobacco. The Virginians established the slavery system in the Northern American. The reconstruction of these events caused controversies amongst many historians with the question. The answers to this information are not in any literature without good research on them. The difficulty is due to the difficulty in finding information. The Virginians did get time to write and make history with one of the reference being "A General Historie of Virginia" a 1624 publication. The history presented in the book bases the information on eyewitness and firsthand knowledge. Reconstructing such information as historians depends on the information displayed. In this case, the literature talks about Captain John Smith who played a big role in directing the Jamestown colony. ...Download file to see next pagesRead More

...specification of men only in the Constitution. Before examining how the suffragettes re-mobilized toward the goal of obtaining the right to vote, some of the background immediate to the Fourteenth Amendment of 1868 will be provided in brief.

...Reconstruction Introduction Reconstruction era represented a significant phase in the lives of numerous freed Blacks in US lasting from 1865 to 1877. This is due to freedom, which Blacks received during then besides other significant enactments put in place to grant them an elevated status contrary to what Southern slave masters deemed for long suited them. However, complete guaranteed freedom during then was far from its realization due to key groups and influential icons in the government who had conflicting intentions. Hence, prompting Dubois term the attainment of equality during then as a "splendid failure" because an individual's recognition or mode of treatment assumed racial lines. This is...

Finally, through the actions of the board, the deaf felt neglected and moreover discriminated racially, in the case of the second DPN (Christiansen, 2009, 74, 40).

The war led to the destruction of infrastructure in the South and the death of more than 600,000 soldiers. After its halt, there was the need for reconstruction in the states due to the economic, social, and political damages (Roland 1865).

In simpler terms, this means the reconstruction of a complicated narration or story, from historical sources that are scattered. For instance, in the construction of the story of the Spanish Civil war, there is a need of examining a series of events that were able to lead to the emergence of the conflict (Raw & Tutan, 2013). In particular circumstances, this may mean that an individual engages in a substantial process that entails a critical analysis of the events...

... Hotel Rwanda: A Cruel Historical Event Marking a sad event in the history of Rwandan people, "Hotel Rwanda" assumes an artistic approach to narrate a real life occasion that saw hundreds of thousands of adults and children lose their lives in the hands of merciless militia. The viewers are engraved in a piece of art that unfolds a genocide that claimed a couple of generations of Rwandans whose fate would have probably changed Rwanda for the better. In an industry dominated by fiction, and entertaining elements of art, the director, Terry George, craftily choses a medium that attracts billions of people to remind everyone that every wrong thing can happen a hundred days.

Gilberte's World
A Film by David A. Masterwille
© David A. Masterwille
A quest for leisure and holidays takes a filmmaker from continental Africa to the beautiful Indian Ocean Island of Mauritius where he is hosted by Gilberte, his renowned celebrity painter friend. When Gilberte suddenly suffers mental breakdown, the filmmaker puts his holidays on hold and becomes a pillar of support for Gilberte as she struggles through conflicts emanating from family, work and life in general.
David A. Masterwille
I am a filmmaker from Ghana, a beautiful country on the west coast of Africa. My home is close to the Greenwich Meridian (Longitude 0°) and a short boat ride into the sea is the Equator (Latitude 0°). So, like many of my compatriots, we like to say that we live right at the center of the world.
However, this rapidly modernizing country has many social problems, chiefly among them is a widening inequality. So, for a number of years now, I have been making films that shed light on some of these issues.
I am both a fiction and non-fiction filmmaker. My documentary films mainly address social-political and environmental problems arising out of Ghana and Africa.
Some of my documentaries include Gold Is Here (2014). Gold Is Here screened at festivals in Africa, Europe and America. It won award for best documentary at a film award in Ghana in 2016; Scapegoats (2017) and Surgeons (2018). The film is still screening publicly with two screenings booked in August 2018 at Goethe Institut's African Perspective program, and Nubuke Foundation's Ghana Must Go: Forward program as well as a screening at the Danish Ambassador's residence for embassy staff and the Danish community in Ghana.
I am presently at a pre-production stage of my second narrative feature Obaamu - Uncommon Passage, with production slated for December 2018.

Dilbert creator Scott Adams: Goals are for losers

Passion won't make you rich. It's more likely to make you broke.
Scott Adams, creator of "Dilbert," one of the world's most famous syndicated comic strips, doesn't believe the common advice that if you want to be successful, you should follow your passion. In fact, he thinks that's bad advice.
That doesn't mean Adams believes you should settle for a Dilbert-like existence in an office cubicle, doing a job you don't like. Adams' life story demonstrates how you can take chances, lots of them, and find success — without taking risks you can't afford.
Scott Adams, author,
'How To Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big'
"Passion is bull," says Dilbert cartoon creator and author Scott Adams. The key to success, he says, is to try a lot of different but inexpensive things, acquiring skills along the way, until you get lucky.
CreditCards.com talked to Adams about his new book, "How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big: Kind of the Story of My Life."
Q: Failing is expensive. You've had a long list of failures, from inventions and investments to two restaurants. How could you afford to keep trying and failing?
A: If you're planning to try lots of stuff, most of it's not going to work. I picked things that were not expensive, so if they didn't work, they didn't break me. Before I had any Dilbert money, I made sure I was well within my budget. I kept my day job. For years, I wrote Dilbert in the morning before I went to work.
Q: Why do you say that passion is bull?
A: Adams: Passion is just something that rich people say was the secret to their success, because anything else makes you sound like a jerk. It sounds bad at a party to say, "I was smarter than the poor folks." They can't say it was family connections, either, so they say it was passion.
Q: So you're not passionate when you start a new idea?
A: Adams: I'm always excited when I start, but I wouldn't say it's passion. When things don't work out, I lose all my excitement. In retrospect, it's the success that causes the passion, not the passion that causes the success.
Q: Can a combination of skills make you financially successful?

Adams: Yes. I would rely on math, diversification. Pay off your credit card. "Passion" is bull. What you need is personal energy. The more passion you bring to your personal finance, the worse you do.
All the errors of investing seem to center around your human emotions, especially that you'll miss something everyone else is getting. You misjudge your real cost. You want to be as dispassionate as possible when making your investments. Passion clouds your judgment. People fall in love with companies. One-third of the people investing in Apple are doing so for emotional reasons.
Q: What's the first thing you would recommend to someone who wants to be successful?
A: Adams: Everything you do in life is a little better if you're bringing your sharpest mind. Work on your body. Learn as much as you can about diet and fitness. Get enough sleep. Those things are going to translate into everything you do.
Q: What other personal finance advice do you have?
A: Adams: Make a lifelong system of learning as much as you can. I'd pull back from professional investment managers. I attended a party, and one the people I met was a personal finance adviser. He would recommend managed stock funds. The people are paying a management fee, they also pay a 1 percent to 2 percent fee for the personal financial management. I asked if he bought those funds, and he said no, he buys index funds.
I'm very big on living below your means. I'm just always sure I'll need more money. I'm not panicked. I just see the world as a riskier place. I'm very conservative.
Q: Were any of your failures in the personal financial area?
A: Adams: Two of my failures were investments. One was Webvan, where you would order online and they would show up in a few hours with groceries. Management came out and said one of their district centers had become cash positive. Very soon after, they went out of business. What they were telling us just wasn't true. You can analyze financial statements all you want, but you can't believe them. It was "the next Amazon" versus bankrupt. That's how big the lie can be.
My second investment failure was when I was making serious Dilbert money. I was approached by a company, and I let them manage half my money. They bought WorldCom, Enron, they bought a number of things almost synonymous with bad investments. Their pitch was that they had superior knowledge. Nobody had knowledge, because Enron was lying. I finally took my money and put it in unmanaged funds.
Q: What about debt? Have you ever had a problem with it?
Adams: I'm super cautious. I lived below my means in the early days, sharing an apartment. I even had a windowless room. I'm very big on living below your means.
I'm just always sure I'll need more money. I'm not panicked. I just see the world as a riskier place. I'm very conservative.
Q: Have you been lucky?
A: Adams: I've managed the odds to look lucky. For example, I lived in small town upstate New York, I left and went to San Francisco. That simple. People think they are already living in the best place. They say, "Move from here? Are you kidding?" You need to move to where the opportunity is.
Rather than trying to be the best in the world at a particular skill, I've combined fairly average skills. Nobody's going to accuse me of being a real artist. I've never taken a writing course. At a party, I'm not the funniest guy in the room. You put those three things together. It's a combination of average skills, which combined become very powerful.
People say how lucky I am to be the Dilbert cartoonist. They don't see that cartooning was one of a dozen things I tried. I tried all these high-risk things not likely to work. Most of that stuff didn't work. The person who tries one thing and then quits has very different odds than a person who tries a lot of things. You come out of every different thing you try with a pretty valuable skill.
Q: CreditCards.com: Can you give an example?
A: Adams: When I was doing my programming, writing computer games, I came out with skills that helped my day job, and some skills I'm still using. All this required a more than average knowledge of skills. It's the combination of them that makes them powerful. I went from 1 in 1,000 odds to a 1 in 5 by the time I decided to become a cartoonist.
Q: You seem to be able to think longer term than most people do. Were you always that way?
I've been planning for my retirement since I was 8 years old. My financial planning spreadsheet goes to age 105.
A: Adams: That's the genetic portion of that, some people think of the future and some people don't. Continually educating yourself is the point. I've been planning for my retirement since I was 8 years old. My financial planning spreadsheet goes to age 105. There's never been a time in my life when I couldn't see my whole life unfolding.
Q: Can planning farther ahead be learned?
A: Adams: Yes, they've shown that by creating digitally aged pictures of people. When people saw themselves as digitally aged, they saved more.
Q: Why do you say goals are for losers?
A: Adams: Goals are for losers, systems are for smart people. Losing 10 pounds is a goal. A better system is to learn about food. Figure out what works and make it a lifelong process.
In the investment category, it's a perfect analogy. It's really hard to go in ignorant and pick winners. I was pretty sure in my 20s that I could apply my great intellect and instinct and pick winners. By the time you're 40, you're just buying index funds and diversifying. That's a system.

Q: incomplete type error with structures Sorry to bother you, I'm new at c and I need help with something: I tried to create a structure that has inside of it an element of the same structure type (like a node tree in a tree, which can have children nodes). This is the code I have so far:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

typedef struct vectorObject vectorObject;

struct vectorObject{
  int value; //Value of node
  int hasChildren; //1 if it has and 0 if not
  int level; //0 for leaf, 1 for leaf parent, 2 for parent of parent, etc...

  vectorObject leftSon;
  vectorObject rightSon;
};

vectorObject *listObjetos;
vectorObject *priorityQueue;

int main(void) {...}

The problem is that I keep getting this error
field 「leftSon」 has incomplete type

And I don't know what to do. In java you can create a class and this class can have itself as an object, because you are using objects, but here I don't know what happens. Could you please help me? Thank you so much and sorry to bother you.

A: In C (unlike Java), the default is NOT object references. So, declaring an object like you have done, the compiler wants to know it's full size and composition - which is not available at the time of the declaration (because your definition is recursive).
The way around this is to explicitly use object references. In C, this is done by using pointers instead. This way, the compiler knows the size of the object being declared, because it knows the size of a pointer (which is fixed). It happily moves on to complete the definition, at which point the size and composition of the entire object is known.
struct vectorObject{
  int value; //Value of node
  int hasChildren; //1 if it has and 0 if not
  int level; //0 for leaf, 1 for leaf parent, 2 for parent of parent, etc...

  vectorObject* leftSon;
  vectorObject* rightSon;
};
