ADHA reports 'My Health Record' hit by 42 data breaches in 2017-2018
Breaches and Incidents
January Tu, yyyy
My Health Record recorded 42 data breaches between July 1, 2017, and June 30, 2018.
ADHA reported that most of the data breaches were due to attempted Medicare fraud
The Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) said in its 2017-18 annual report that 'My Health Record' recorded 42 data breaches between July 1, 2017, and June 30, 2018. Most of the data breaches were due to attempted Medicare fraud, ADHA reported.
Three of the breaches were reported to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). Out of the three, two breaches occurred due to suspected Medicare fraud which resulted in the potential attacker accessing records without permission. The other one involved unauthorized access as a result of an incorrect Parental Authorised Representative being assigned to a child.
Most of the data breaches due to attempted Medicare fraud
ADHA said that 17 breaches were identified from the Department of Human Services identifying intertwined records where two or more people have been using the same Medicare record. However, The Department of Human Services had corrected the records in all such cases. ADHA also said in its annual report that 22 breaches were due to attempted Medicare fraud where unauthorized claims appeared incorrectly in the My Health Record of the affected users.
"There have been no purposeful or malicious attacks compromising the integrity or security of the My Health Record system," ADHA stated in its report.
"In 2017–18 the Agency, as System Operator, registered 935,206 people for a My Health Record. There were a total of 42,877 cancelled registrations during the year," ADHA added.
ADHA also said that around 221,580,930 documents were uploaded to the system during 2017-18, and almost 798,000 users accessed their records through its portal during that period.
Australians had time-period until January 31 to opt-out of the national health record system and 1.147 million people had removed themselves from the system by October 19. However, ADHA said that it was content with the result.
"After spending 2018 focused on tearing down his own Prime Minister, Minister Hunt must now focus on delivering a My Health Record that is secure and on a budget," Shadow Health Minister Catherine King said in a statement.
Regarding the privacy concerns related to its operations, ADHA said that it had created a privacy team to "embed privacy within the functions and culture of the agency". It is to be noted that its director of privacy had resigned earlier in November 2018 over privacy concerns.
"Maintaining community trust in the privacy and security of the My Health Record system is imperative to the success of the program. The privacy team takes a proactive, privacy by design approach to managing the development and operation of the My Health Record system," ADHA wrote in its annual report.
Penalties for improper use of My Health Record
In November, the government announced that it would increase the maximum penalties for improper use of My Health Record data. The penalties included the following,
A maximum jail term of five years instead of two years
A maximum fine AU$315,000. The initial fine was AU$126,000, and
Private health insurers will not be able to access health or de-identified data.
Moreover, the government announced that employers will not be able to use health information to discriminate against employees or potential employees.
"Importantly, employers or insurers cannot simply avoid the prohibition by asking the individuals to share their My Health Record information with them," Health Minister Greg Hunt said.
Parents who have restricted access to a child and parents who are a potential risk to a child or to the person associated with the child, will not be allowed to become an authorized representative.

If some of your favorite childhood memories involve eating ice cream, it's time to revisit your past. The Springville Dairy has reopened its windows, ready to serve up all your favorite frozen treats topped with sprinkles, hot fudge and a bit of nostalgia!
The Springville Dairy is a perfect example of how everything old is new again.
The Springville Dairy was built and opened by Henry Malloch in 1914. The dairy operated under the Malloch family until about 1940 when the business was sold to William Weidinger, who operated the dairy until about 1950 when he moved to Arizona. (His daughter would later gain great accolades as an opera singer with Metropolitan Opera company.) The dairy stayed open under the Duggan family until Joseph Luksic bought it in 1962. His wife, Helen Luksic, retired from the business in 1988 and resided there until death in 2000. Helen's daughter, Pat Walcyk, operated and even expanded dairy operations to Route 219 when they opened Yummy in My Tummy in 1991. She retired in 2006. The dairy property stayed in the family until Helen Luksic died in 2013. The property was then bought by Bruce and Emily Robinson in 2015.
According to Emily, the building at 84 East Main Street (on the corner of Franklin Street) was purchased to house her photography business, Emily Karr Photography. At the time of purchase, reopening the dairy was "more of a pipe dream," Emily said, but one that she and her husband, Bruce, both 1997 SGI graduates, decided to take on. "It was here when we were kids, we used to come here after games and concerts," she said of her memories of the Dairy.
The couple began work on the bottom floor of the building, which has windows opening to Franklin Street. "We had to gut the entire thing," Emily said of the project. "We had to redo the electric, the floors and get equipment." Equipment included everything from a soft serve machine, slushie machine, two commercial fridges, and three dipping coolers to smaller components like the sink.
The original signs, which remained hanging on the outside of the building over the years, were taken down and repainted.
Emily wanted to thank the Village and project manager Alma Brown of Clinton Brown Architecture, PC for their work in helping to secure the grant money.
The dairy will be offering a variety of ice cream stand staples, such as soft serve custard, floats, slushies and arctic swirls. There are 24 flavors of hard scoop ice cream, with a rotating featured flavor that customers can vote on each month. Unique items include parfaits (ice cream layered with special toppings) and a variety of almond and coconut-based allergy-friendly products, as well as homemade gluten-free ice cream sandwiches and other GF treats.
"Our goal is to offer something that everyone can have," explained Emily.
They even offer "pup cups" for your canine companion!
The Springville Dairy will open Friday, May 26, although their official grand opening celebration is scheduled for June 3 after the Dairy Fest parade. The Dairy will employ 6-8 local high school and college students.
Hours are as follows: 4 to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 12 to 10 p.m. on weekends through the end of the school year. After that, it will be open 12 to 10 p.m. daily. While the full ice cream menu will most likely be offered seasonally, the Robinsons plan to stay open year-round and offer bakery items starting in the fall.
What are you waiting for? Grab some friends, indulge in your favorite frozen treat, and take a trip down Memory Lane via the Springville Dairy!

Hotel en el centro del barrio antiguo, con un gran surtido de restaurantes y ruido, tuvimos suerte y nos dieron una habitación interior así que descansamos bien. Limpio.Buen desayuno buffet. Buen wifi.
ME ROBARON DESDE LA CAJA DE SEGURIDAD CERRADA EN LA HABITACIÓN!!!
Ad ơi cho em hỏi, nếu em đặt trước mà sau 11h mới nhận phòng thì giá có rẻ hơn ko ạ?
Unfortunately there's no fitness centre nor swimming pool.
no impact on the road closure. taxi can stop at the next street behind the hotel which is only 200m away. you will enjoy walking around without having to worry any cars passing close next to you .
Hi, does this hotel offer a daily turn down service?
Not to my recollection. To me this isn't a deal breaker. The staff where awesome, the breakfast was great (served at the roof top) and the roof top bar was great. The massage centre in the basement was awesome and again the staff great. I know what I would rather. Sorry turn your own bed down and enjoy the rest of the motel for what it has to offer.
Hi How far from the night market and other food markets? Can you walk there?

Q: How can I stop the MediaPlayer when Home key is pressed?   MediaPlayer player = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.background);
  player.start();

The Code above is part of the current code.
When I press the home key, MediaPlayer does not stop playing.
@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int KeyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
    if (event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
        if (KeyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
            System.exit(0);
            return true;
        }
    }
    return super.onKeyDown(KeyCode, event);
}

I've implemented the code shown above, for when you press the Back key.
Do you think that the above code is correct? Appreciate any help.

A: Just implement below methods for this,
 @Override
 protected void onPause() {
      super.onPause();

      if(player != null)
             player.stop();
 }

 @Override
 protected void onStop() {
      super.onStop();

      if(player != null)
             player.stop();

 }

 @Override
 protected void onDestroy() {
      super.onDestroy();

      if(player != null)
             player.stop();

 }

A: Please try with this solution:
public class PlayaudioActivity extends Activity {

    private MediaPlayer mp;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
        Button b2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
        final TextView t = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);

        b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                stopPlaying();
                mp = MediaPlayer.create(PlayaudioActivity.this, R.raw.far);
                mp.start();
            }

        });

        b2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                stopPlaying();
                mp = MediaPlayer.create(PlayaudioActivity.this, R.raw.beet);
                mp.start();
            }
        });
    }

    private void stopPlaying() {
        if (mp != null) {
            mp.stop();
            mp.release();
            mp = null;
       }
    }
}

For more information, please read this post: Android MediaPlayer Stop and Play

A: If your media player is running on the activity you created, you can call player.stop() in onStop() method.
Edit:

*

*Your implementation is OK, but it only overrides the back key only. You have to override the home key also to stop the player on pressing the home key. (but, use onStop() instead as it calls when the user interface is hidden.)

*Do not use System.exit(), use finish() instead.

*If you using finish() method (which destroys the activity), make sure that you have released the MediaPlayer resources by calling player.release() and nullifying the player. (i.e. player = null)

Upper back pain is far less popular than reduced back pain yet this can induce substantial pain and also ache to the individual that performs have to deal with this. Commonly the reason is actually muscular inflammation, or even just what is described as myofascial pain, as well as shared dysfunction. Having said that, higher neck and back pain may likewise lead if there is actually personal injury to a disk in the higher back, such as a herniated disk or degenerated disc.
Your upper spine is actually in some cases pertained to as the thoracic back, mid back or even mid-back. "Thoracic" implies that this relates to the breast. Unlike the cervical spinal column (back) and also the lumbar spinal column (lower back), your upper spine is certainly not constructed for a lot mobility. Rather, it is there mostly for help: to keep our company secure as our experts stand up upright and to secure the critical internal body organs in the chest.
Due to this special concept from the upper back, it rarely suffers the threat of injury or even degeneration. But as what has already been actually shown, top pain in the back carries out develop as well as the symptoms can be as negative as lesser neck and back pain.
A large number from the treatment systems offered are actually hefty on stretching as well as boosting. The explanation is that top neck and back pain is related to the huge muscular tissues in the shoulder area which should be actually targeted when exercising to handle the discomfort.
There is also yet another technique utilized to handle higher back pain. The approach recognizes a resource from the upper back pain in a specific tender region, called the trigger factor. Through treating these trigger points, relief for upper pain in the back is actually accomplished. Treatments that uses this idea feature massage treatment, traditional chinese medicine and trigger aspect treatments along with an anesthetic (like Lidocaine).
* Athletics Breast support– In ladies, higher back pain relief is actually achieved through putting on a sporting activities breast support that provides better help. Karl B. Fields, M.D., associate professor from family practice and director of the Sports Medication Alliance at Moses Conoid Remembrance Hospital in Greensboro, North Carolina proposes this technique.
* Effective Sitting Posture– Instead of carrying your eyes, head and neck to the paper you are actually trying to read through, carry the paper to your eyes. Hubert Rosomoff, M.D., D.Med.Sc., health care director of the University of Miami Comprehensive Ache and Recovery Center in Miami Seaside encourages folks to adopt this method.

Q: What monitoring system should I use for offline network I'm part of a sysadmin\DevOps team for for an application. Currently today we have about 25 - 40 vms running as different parts of the application in micro services on the
openshift container platform, using also Jenkins, Nexus3, some relational and mongo DB's.
I'm looking into monitoring the servers and different linux services on them. First I found out about monit and part from it's single server monitoring ability using the web GUI it was pretty fast and simple to use.
Yet again I can't have that many different GUIs to look at to understand the network status. More recently I've encountered Nagios core and XI and currently in the process of deploying the (Nagios core) nrpe_3.2.1 agents on the different nodes in the network, yet because of dependency issues I'm leaning toward Nagios XI for ease of use and so it would "just work". I specifically want service monitoring and event handlers is case of service crash or status change to keep all running without requiring my attention. If I can get a validation on the existing or recommendation for something better (as well as hopefully free and open source) it'd be much appreciated. Thnx, Noam.

A: There's no reason not to use M/Monit for central status in this environment. The cost is absurdly low and it will plug into what you e already established.


Apple on Thursday issued a fresh version of iTunes with a new section for browsing and playing back music videos, bringing its desktop content repository up to speed with Apple Music for iOS.
Apple may not be reliant on massive seasonal sales of the iPhone going forward for steady revenue growth, if a new analyst report is accurate.
Apple in an email to iTunes Affiliate Program members on Tuesday announced the introduction of revamped promotional assets including a new badge, text lockup and iTunes star icon, the latter being a play on the iOS 11 iTunes app.
Apple recently expanded its Apple Music service in Australia with the addition of two live radio news channels provided by national broadcaster, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
Midweek deals are going on now with savings of up to $1,000 off. Pick up a high-end Late 2016 15" MacBook Pro (2.9GHz, 16GB, 512GB, Radeon 460) for $2,099. DJI's Mavic Pro drone is also $230 off, while $100 iTunes / App Store codes are just $85 while supplies last.
A recent op-ed reminds U.S. citizens that Internal Revenue Service impersonators are out in force this tax season and, like last year and year before, some are looking to fleece unwitting victims by asking them to pay back taxes with iTunes gift cards.
A user's music and video collection can be one of the largest consumers of hard drive space on a Mac, and is typically overlooked in favor of other items when it comes time to free up drive space. This guide explains how to shift where iTunes stores all of the content to an external drive.
Many years ago, Apple added the ability to play a music stream to multiple AirPlay-compatible devices, but this is not AirPlay 2 and doesn't work the quite the same way.
Though AirPlay 2 with support for multiple HomePods won't ship until later this year, there are ways to use multiple HomePods with your iPhone and Mac right now. AppleInsider shows you how to do it.
Apple HomePod vs. Google Home Max: Which high-end smart speaker is right for you?
While the $399 Google Home Max and the $349 Apple HomePod are roughly aiming for the same market, both have taken very different approaches. AppleInsider compares the hardware, and delves into which speaker might work the best for you.
In newly-published specifications, Apple has confirmed that streaming on the Siri-equipped HomePod -- shipping Feb. 9 -- will focus mainly on its own services.

Liberal professor: Texans deserve hurricane
for Trump support
August 29, 2017
Liberal professors have again and again come out declaring their disapproval of President Donald Trump. But in doing so, they say some of the most insulting and disgusting things to get their point across.
Well, it just happened again.
While the rest of the world is sharing their prayers of hope to the people in Houston, Texas, one professor from The University of Tampa decided to make it about Trump.
Ken Storey tweeted, "I don't believe in instant Karma but this kinda feels like it for Texas. Hopefully this will help them realize the GOP doesn't care about them."
The following story is from investigative reporter Anthony Gockowski at Campus Reform, and it reveals the absurdity of liberal logic.
" A University of Tampa professor recently suggested that Texans deserve the fallout from Hurricane Harvey because of their support for Donald Trump in the 2016 election.
"I don't believe in instant Karma but this kinda feels like it for Texas," Professor Ken Storey wrote. "Hopefully this will help them realize the GOP doesn't care about them."
One of Storey's followers responded to the tweet by noting that there are "lots of good people in Texas," and so he "may want to rethink this one."
"Well, the good people there need to do more to stop the evil their state pushes. I'm only blaming those who support the GOP there," Storey elaborated, to which the same commenter replied by asking if he thinks the same about Trump supporters in Florida.
"Yep, those who voted for him here deserve it as well," Storey answered, though he later deleted his Twitter account, but a screenshot of his account confirms that he teaches sociology.
Campus Reform reached out to Storey for comment on his tweets, but did not receive a response in time for publication.

Fall in Love Unexpectedly with Songbird's 'Hey, Boy'
Posted on January 6, 2021 by escritorazel	Leave a comment
Going by his artist name Songbird, Joe Moralez is a Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and producer. His lyrics incorporate a broad range of political, social, and philosophical influences. Meanwhile, his overall work is centered around self-empowerment and love.
Songbird gets his musical inspirations from artists like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Tears for Fears, Mariah Carey, and Whitney Houston. Over the years, he has been experimenting with different sounds such as folk, electronic, RnB, and pop genres. His audience can identify his music through the texture and high tenor range of his voice, which has often been described as "angelic" and "soothing" by listeners.
His latest single, 'Hey, Boy,' is a contemporary pop anthem centered around two friends as they fall in love while on a Las Vegas getaway. He shares, "I wrote this song during the first Los Angeles lockdown as a way to escape what was happening around me, trading panic and fear for something more romantic and hopeful."
The track is for anyone who's ever fallen in love unexpectedly. At the same time, the sound toes the carefree line of youthful bliss while staying grounded in a bed of sophisticated guitar textures and rhythms. Songbird's debut EP entitled 2020 is a mix of sassy love anthems with a twist of sour grapes. He started working on this project at the beginning of the Los Angeles quarantine and wrote several songs throughout the summer for consideration.
Listen to Songbird's 'Hey, Boy' on SoundCloud and Spotify.

Jose Lugo (L) and Luis Jimenez are charged with aggravated robbery in Texas City after police said they showed up to an area home wearing clown masks and armed with a machete, in Texas City, Texas, on Feb. 1, 2019. (Galveston County Sheriff's Office)
Machete Armed Clown-Masked Robbers Get Beaten by Scooter-Wielding Texas Grandma
February 8, 2019 Updated: February 8, 2019
A Texas grandmother and her husband fended off two alleged robbers wearing clown masks and armed with a machete. They used a child's scooter.
The confrontation took place in Texas City in the early morning hours of Feb. 1, according to KTRK-TV, as Aretha Cardinal and her husband Joseph Nelson were sitting outside their home in a parked truck.
"I'm sitting here talking to my wife and the next thing I know, when I look up, I see somebody running toward me with this white clown mask on and a machete," Nelson told Houston's KTRK-TV.
Cardinal said the would-be robbers drove up in a vehicle, and "both of them had on clown masks and gloves."
'Rob Me With a Machete?'
A police report cited by the Star-Telegram recounted that one of the assailants—wearing a white mask, orange hair, and a big red nose—approached Nelson and threatened him with the machete, saying, "You're gonna give it up, or I'm gonna cut you."
Nelson told KTRK-TV he was shocked by the unfolding scene and "couldn't believe what was happening."
"He reached his hand through the window, put it on my throat like this," Nelson recounted, adding, "and I'm like, 'Dude, you serious, you trying to rob me with a machete?'"
Instead of handing over the money, the couple chose to resist.
Nelson reportedly struggled with the assailant to take control of the machete and, at the same time, called out to his wife to find a weapon.
'I Used the Scooter'
Cardinal got out of the truck and grabbed her granddaughter's scooter from the front yard.
"Any weapon is good for me if I can get you off me and my husband," she told the station, "that's what I'm going to do."
The woman then started hitting the machete-wielding bandits with the child's scooter, according to the Galveston County Daily News.
"I used the scooter," she recounted, "broke it in half."
She also struck the suspects' vehicle with the scooter, according to the Daily News, smashing the window.
Nelson told KTRK-TV he managed to wrest the machete away from one of the suspects and set off in pursuit.
"Me and my husband held them down, you know, commence to beating them until the laws came," Cardinal told Fox26 in Houston. "It was really scary, but it was like—it was either us or them—you know, and not us. You not gonna steal no money. We ain't got no money."
The couple's adult daughter called the police and they arrested both suspects.
Luis Jimenez, 32, and Jose Lugo, 35, have been charged with aggravated robbery and are being held in Galveston County jail.
A $100,000 bond has been set for each of the suspects.
Texas City is a town of nearly 50,000 residents located along Galveston Bay near the Gulf Coast.
Clown on a Scooter
In May 2017, a scooter-riding man wearing clown makeup and a knife-tipped glove fatally stabbed a homeless man in the parking lot of a Colorado taco shop, the Denver Post reported.
Christian Gulzow, 37, was later found guilty of the second-degree murder of Brian Lucero, who died from a stab wound to the neck.
Gulzow allegedly wore "demonic, white-faced" clown makeup wore a glove with 2-3 inch blades affixed at the end of each finger.
Witnesses recounted the bizarre confrontation involving the homeless man and an assailant wearing "clown-type makeup with black streaks on his face."
Christian Gulzow, who in June 2018 was found guilty of second-degree murder of a homeless man, reportedly wore a clown disguise and a glove with blades attached. (Denver Police)
Family and friends described Gulzow as a troubled man who often rode around Denver on a scooter dressed up in ghoulish attire, including that of a vampire or clown.
Scissor-Wielding Clown
The Miami Herald reported on an incident at a Little Caesar's pizza shop in Florida where a man wearing a clown mask attacked an employee with a wooden board and a pair of scissors.
The Holly Hill Police released surveillance video of the bizarre incident.
In New York City, meanwhile, police arrested a knife-wielding clown who terrorized a 16-year-old boy on the subway.

Thomas Smith, 53, was taken into custody on Oct. 13, 2016, hours after police released surveillance stills of the Oct. 5 incident showing Smith with clown makeup on and dressed in multicolored attire.
The Manhattan man was charged with menacing, according to a police bulletin.

Mozilla is showing off some early glimpses of Metro-style Firefox, after announcing last month that it was bringing the browser to Windows 8.
The screenshots, posted on the blog of Mozilla developer Brian Bondy, show a prototype Firefox browser with a one-line user interface bar across the top of the screen. Instead of having tabs at the top of the screen, Metro-style Firefox may use a sidebar, with thumbnail images for each tab.
Mozilla has already integrated some of Windows 8's core features into the prototype. For example, when using the Search Charm in Windows 8, users can click on Firefox under the application list to search the Web with their default search engine. With the Share Charm, users can share Web pages through Facebook, Twitter or e-mail. The Metro interface's file picker has also been integrated with the prototype, along with the "Snap" feature that lets users run two apps side-by-side.
For the prototype, Mozilla used the same Fennec XUL code that it originally used in its Android browser. Mozilla eventually switched to a native user interface for Android because of issues with startup performance, but Bondy said the team hasn't run into those issues on Windows 8. The team still has some design questions to figure out, and a lot of platform integration work to do, Bondy wrote.
Mozilla isn't the only company working on a Metro-style browser for Windows 8. Google has also confirmed that it's developing Chrome for the desktop and for Metro.
As Bondy explains, third-party browsers will have special classification in Windows 8, allowing them to work in both the desktop and Metro-style interfaces. However, a browser's Metro-style version will only be available if the browser is set as the default. Otherwise, only the desktop version will be available.
"Even if a user spends most of their time in the Desktop interface, having a really good Metro browser may be enough for the user to change their default browser," Bondy wrote. "A browser with great Metro support can gain significant browser market share for this reason."

Justia › US Law › Case Law › Nebraska Case Law › Nebraska Supreme Court Decisions › 1981 › Rhodes v. Yates
Receive free daily summaries of new opinions from the Nebraska Supreme Court.
Rhodes v. Yates
312 N.W.2d 680 (1981)
210 Neb. 14
Paul RHODES, Appellant, v. Odaville YATES, Appellee.
Supreme Court of Nebraska.
Paul Rhodes, pro se.
Robert J. Bulger of Bulger & Jensen, Bridgeport, for appellee.
Heard before BOSLAUGH, CLINTON, BRODKEY, and WHITE, JJ., and HOWARD, District Judge.
*681 WHITE, Justice.
This is a companion case to the case of Nat. Bank of Commerce Trust & Savings Assn. v. Rhodes, 207 Neb. 44, 295 N.W.2d 711 (1980). In that case, certain deeds to Rhodes were found to be fabrications. This court, agreeing with the trial court, found that signatures and an acknowledgment had been executed as part of a power of attorney and had later been detached and reattached to an instrument purporting to convey real estate to a grantor of Paul Rhodes. The court further found that the instrument had never been delivered, based on the testimony of the purported grantee, Augustine Rhodes, that she had never seen or had possession of the deed.
This is a suit by appellant, Paul Rhodes, defendant in the previous case, against Odaville Yates, the notary public on the power of attorney of March 10, 1956, for slander of title. The trial court sustained a demurrer to the amended petition and dismissed the action. Rhodes appeals. We affirm.
The amended petition alleges that on August 18, 1978, the appellee Yates executed an affidavit, the effect of which was to reinforce the appellant's contention that it was a deed acknowledged by him on March 10, 1956. The amended petition also alleges that Yates gave a sworn statement to an attorney for the National Bank of Commerce on October 13, 1978, which contradicted in many material respects the affidavit of the previous August. Both the affidavit and the statement were received in evidence at the trial in the first action and were incorporated in the amended petition in this action. The petition alleges further that the sworn statement of October 13, 1978, was false and was responsible for the "defeat [of] this plaintiff's title ... by defeating the Affidavit of the defendant herein in the Affidavit of August 18, 1978."
The general rule is that while the court will take judicial notice of its own records, it will not in one case take judicial notice of the record in another case. However, where cases are interwoven and interdependent and the controversy involved has already been considered and determined by the court in the former proceedings involving one of the parties now before it, the court has a right to examine its own records and take judicial notice of its own proceedings and judgments in the former action. Matters so judicially noticed are properly considered when determining the questions presented by a demurrer. Knapp v. City of Omaha, 175 Neb. 576, 122 N.W.2d 513 (1963).
The cause before us is essentially the same as that previously before this court. The appellant, by his reference to Nat. Bank of Commerce Trust & Savings Assn. v. Rhodes, supra, in his petition and amended petition, allowed the findings of fact in that case to be considered in sustaining the demurrer.
The deeds upon which the appellant bases his claim were found to be fabricated and to never have been delivered. Since the issue here has been tried and judicially determined, the appellant cannot be heard to now question collaterally the expressed findings of that cause. In addition, appellant could recover no damage for being deprived of the title to property that he never acquired.
For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the trial court was correct and is affirmed.
of Nebraska Supreme Court opinions.


We meet our responsibility to protect the environment in many different ways. We continuously work to reduce the environmental impact of our business activities and develop product solutions that benefit the environment. For us, a resource-friendly and low-emissions approach to raw materials and energy is ecologically and economically expedient and efficient. These measures are designed to reduce environmental impact and, at the same time, cut the costs associated with materials, energy, emissions and disposal. As a pure life science company too, we remain committed to climate protection.
HSEQ stands for health, safety, environment and quality. management systems to control operational implementation. Our environmental standards apply worldwide.
Our commitment extends beyond the scope of legal requirements. We perform a voluntary ecological assessment for capital expenditure projects exceeding €10 million. As part of the integration process, the corresponding corporate policy will also be extended to the acquired agriculture business. In the case of acquisitions, we examine compliance with the applicable environmental and occupational safety regulations as well as fundamental employee rights at the production sites in question.
Environmentally relevant sites are Bayer locations with annual net energy consumption of over 1.5 terajoules. . These are included in our environmental performance indicators as of the closing date of June 7, 2018. As a result, nearly all our environmental performance indicators are considerably higher year on year.
Compared with 2017, Bayer's total energy consumption rose by 53.4% to 39.6 petajoules in 2018. In connection with the acquisition of Monsanto, Bayer has taken over sites for seed production and for the extraction of raw materials for the manufacture of intermediates for crop protection products, which involves energy-intensive treatment and downstream processing. The integration of these process steps into the value chain substantially increases all performance indicators for energy consumption.
Liquid fuels include heating oil and fuels used in the Bayer Group vehicle fleet. The method for calculating the fuel consumption of the acquired agriculture business's vehicle fleet differs from that used for the remaining Bayer Group fleet. The calculation methods are to be harmonized in 2019.
Our service company Currenta operates its own highly energy-efficient combined heat and power plants at the Chempark sites in Germany and sells the electricity and steam generated there along with cooling energy additionally generated primarily to other companies with energy-intensive production processes. Offsetting this against the volumes we purchase can lead to negative totals.
The proportion of primary energy sources used in generating the electricity consumed depends on the respective national electricity mix.
Bayer reports energy efficiency as the ratio of energy used to external sales. For 2018, we are including the acquired agriculture business in our reporting of energy efficiency for the first time. As a result, the value for this performance indicator is now much higher.
At Bayer, air emissions are caused mainly by the generation and consumption of electricity, steam and auxiliary energy for the production of our products and by our vehicle fleet.
Climate protection has been a priority at Bayer for decades. As reported in previous years, we were able to reduce our absolute greenhouse gas emissions between 1990 and 2015 through production and process innovations. This was possible in spite of production increases, particularly in the energy-intensive plastics businesses. Following the strategic realignment, we reduced our absolute greenhouse gas emissions as a pure life science company by a further 26.8% between 2015 and 2018 (excluding Currenta and the acquired agriculture business).
In integrating the acquired agriculture business, we are currently reviewing our climate program and, in the future, want to make positive contributions to protecting the climate and managing the effects of climate change on several levels. Our comprehensive approach also includes initiatives that seek to reduce the emissions of nonproduction operations. For example, we are looking at our vehicle fleet, the optimization of logistics, and the further development of our information and communications technologies in terms of environmental aspects (Green IT).
In selecting and measuring greenhouse gas emissions, we consider recommendations of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol. Direct emissions from our own power plants, vehicles, waste incineration plants and production facilities (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from the procurement of electricity, steam and cooling energy (Scope 2) are determined at all environmentally relevant sites.
GHG Protocol The Greenhouse Gas Protocol is an internationally recognized tool for recording, quantifying and reporting greenhouse gas emissions. Its standards cover all emissions within a company's value chain. Bayer aligns itself to the Corporate Standard for direct (Scope 1) and indirect (Scope 2) greenhouse gas emissions and also to the Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting Standard, which covers further indirect emissions along the value chain. Dual reporting was introduced for Scope 2. Indirect emissions have to be reported using both the location-based and the market-based methods. The location-based method uses regional or national average emissions factors, while the market-based method applies provider- or product-specific emissions factors based on contractual instruments. , indirect emissions (Scope 2) are reported according to both the location-based and the market-based methods.
Because we are reporting emission data for the acquired agriculture business for the first time, all Bayer Group emissions are considerably higher year on year.
In 2018, 94.9% of direct greenhouse gas emissions were CO2 emissions. Other greenhouse gases such as nitrous oxide, partially fluorinated hydrocarbons and methane made a negligible contribution to direct greenhouse gas emissions.
In line with the GHG Protocol, we also report the direct emissions of our service company Currenta, which also generates electricity for other companies at the German Chempark sites in Leverkusen, Krefeld-Uerdingen and Dormagen. Consequently, the figures for the direct emissions of the Bayer Group are higher than the actual emissions resulting from the business activities of Bayer excluding Currenta alone.
The calculation of direct CO2 emissions from the acquired agriculture business's vehicle fleet differs in 201from that used for the remaining Bayer Group fleet. The calculation methods are to be harmonized in 2019.
Typically, CO2 accounts for 98% of all energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. The remainder comprises methane and nitrous oxide. When determining indirect emissions, our calculations are therefore limited to these greenhouse gases and indicate all emissions in CO2 equivalents.
For Bayer, the market-based method of the GHG Protocol most reliably reflects the values for Scope 2 emissions and the success of emissions reduction measures, so we apply emissions volumes calculated using this method when calculating the total and specific greenhouse gas emissions.
Specific Bayer Group emissions are calculated from the total volume of direct emissions and indirect emissions calculated using the market-based method of the GHG Protocol (Scope 2), divided by the external sales volume. Quantities attributable to the supply of energy to external companies are deducted from the direct and indirect emissions.
In 2018, the Bayer Group was involved in European emissions trading with 13 plants in total. The CO2 emissions of these plants amounted to approximately 2.27 million metric tons.
The reporting of all relevant indirect emissions from the value chain is bindingly regulated by the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting & Reporting Standard. Bayer has identified eight key Scope 3 categories that we describe in detail in the current CDP report (excluding the acquired agriculture business and Currenta).
Logistics at Bayer comprises not just the transport and warehousing of goods, but also the steering and monitoring of flows of goods and logistics data for the Bayer Group. The acquired agriculture business will use its own legacy systems and processes until integration is completed. For this reason, the following information and data on means of transport apply only to Bayer excluding the acquired agriculture business.
Utilizing digital technologies, we work continually to develop logistics strategies that take account of safety, environmental and cost aspects. Areas of environmental focus include the reduction of CO2 emissions, for example by minimizing air transport or using logistics strategies that include railways and waterways.
Particulate emissions rose considerably in 2018, from 60 to 2,370 metric tons, on account of the first-time inclusion of the sites of the acquired agriculture business in reporting. This is due in part to the mining and processing of raw materials for the manufacture of intermediates for crop protection products. In addition, seed production (corn and soybeans) results in relatively large quantities of particulates.
The increase in CO emissions and in volatile organic compounds (VOC) excluding methane is largely attributable to the inclusion of the vehicle fleet of the acquired agriculture business.
There were two environmental incidents – i.e. incidents that resulted in the release of substances into the environment – in 2018 (2017: two). Factors that determine whether there is a reporting obligation include, in particular, the nature and quantity of the substance, the amount of damage caused and any consequences for nearby residents. In accordance with our internal voluntary commitment, we report any leakage of substances with a high hazard potential from a quantity of 100 kilograms upward. Both environmental incidents were also transport incidents. Regrettably, one person lost their life in one of these incidents. You will find details of the environmental and transport incidents in 2018 on our sustainability website.
Responsible water usage is a cornerstone of our commitment to sustainable development. Clean water in sufficient quantities is essential for the health of people, animals and plants. That is why it is crucial that, in the future too, industrial water usage will not lead to local problems such as a shortage of water for the people living in the catchment areas of our production sites. We therefore commit in our Water Position to comply with international, national and local legislation to protect water resources, use them as sparingly as possible and further reduce emissions into water. We have introduced a water management system at our sites in water-scarce areas or areas identified as being threatened by water scarcity. For 2019, we plan to examine the production sites of our acquired agriculture business in this regard.
CDP is a nonprofit organization that works on behalf of institutional investors to compile annual rankings of detailed environmental data, especially in respect of greenhouse gas emissions (CDP-Climate) and water management (CDP-Water), from over 2,400 companies worldwide. According to CDP, more than 650 investors representing fund assets of around US$87 trillion currently draw on this information for their investment decisions. Water Disclosure, we report in detail and transparently on our water management approach. In recent years, we have repeatedly been included in the CDP Water A List (leadership status).
In 2018, total water use in the Bayer Group was 124 million cubic meters (2017: 98 million cubic meters). This year-on-year increase in use is due to the first-time inclusion of the sites of the acquired agriculture business.
Some 42% of all water used by Bayer is cooling water that is only heated in this process and does not come into contact with products. It can be returned to the water cycle without further treatment in line with the relevant official permits.
At our production facilities, we endeavor to use water several times and to recycle it. Water is currently recycled at 51 sites, accounting for 52.4% of the total water used. The various forms of recycling include closed cooling cycles, reuse of treated wastewater and recirculation of steam condensates as process water. We use water several times, in particular at our recently acquired production sites at locations such as Antwerp in Belgium and Muscatine, Iowa; St. Louis, Missouri; and especially Luling, Louisiana, in the United States. The total volume of 124 million cubic meters of water originally deployed is used approximately 1.8 times on average.
1 The differences between volumes of water consumed and water discharged can be explained, for example, by quantities of water used as raw materials in products, unquantified losses due to evaporation, leaks and volumes of condensate generated through the use of steam as a source of energy.
The total quantity of wastewater, including process and sanitary wastewater, was 29 million cubic meters in 2018, which is 25.2% more than in 2017. This increase in use is due especially to the first-time inclusion of the sites of the acquired agriculture business.
All wastewater is subject to strict controls before it is discharged into the various disposal channels. In 2018, 85.1% of Bayer's wastewater worldwide was purified in wastewater treatment plants (Bayer or third-party facilities). Following careful analysis, the remaining volume was categorized as environmentally safe according to official provisions and returned to the natural water cycle.
We aim to minimize our emissions into water. In 2018, we therefore also applied alternative means of disposing of product-containing wastewater such as incineration, distillation and chemical treatment.
In 2018, most of the higher emissions into water were attributable to the first-time inclusion of the sites of the acquired agriculture business. Additional factors were more precise methods of data acquisition at the site in Kansas City, Missouri, United States, and production adjustments at the site in Dormagen, Germany.
We want to minimize material consumption and disposal volumes through systematic waste management. Safe disposal channels with separation according to the type of waste and economically expedient recycling processes serve this purpose. Production fluctuations, building refurbishment and land remediation work also influence waste volumes and recycling paths. In accordance with Bayer's corporate policies, all production sites are obliged to prevent, recycle and reduce waste and to dispose of it safely and in line with good environmental practices.
The total quantity of waste generated declined slightly by 3.3% in 2018.
The volume of hazardous waste decreased by 13.3%, primarily on account of the conclusion of demolition work at the site in Belford Roxo, Brazil. The volume of hazardous waste from production fell by around 6.9%, mainly due to changes in the production portfolio at the Dormagen site in Germany.
The volume of nonhazardous waste, on the other hand, rose by 10.3% compared with the previous year, due primarily to the first-time inclusion of the sites of the newly acquired agriculture business.
Reflecting the reduction in the volume of waste generated, the amount of waste disposed of decreased by 2.6%. In turn, this made it possible to reduce by 33.1% the volume of hazardous waste disposed of in landfills. Of the waste disposed of, 35.9% was successfully recycled.
Waste can also be stored at sites as an intermediate step. For this reason, the volume of waste disposed of can differ slightly from the volume of waste generated by Bayer.
Recycling refers to processes through which waste is reused or treated for reutilization.
Legislation prohibits the recycling and processing / treatment of a large proportion of our materials, especially pharmaceuticals and crop protection products. In our segments, we make use of opportunities for recycling within the framework of legal regulations. Production-specific and substance-specific recycling is carried out in compliance with the individual requirements of a given production site. Packaging materials are recycled in line with national regulations as part of the country-specific infrastructure for waste disposal.

Q: Why does separation of different colours increase in higher order maxima? In a question on the difference between the 1st and 2nd order maxima formed when light of 2 different  Wavelengths is incident on a diffraction grating, the marking scheme mentions that separation of the maxima of the wavelength increases with n, with the reason that $\Delta \theta$ increases with $n$ from the equation:
$$d\sin(\theta)=n\lambda $$
I am unable to understand or prove this. Can anyone give me an intuitive or mathematical explanation for this?

A: If $\lambda_2=\lambda_1+\Delta\lambda$ where $\Delta\lambda<<\lambda_1$ (which isn't really necessary)
then for first order you have the equation with:
\begin{equation}
d\sin(\theta_1)=\lambda_1\\
d\sin(\theta_2)=\lambda_1+\Delta\lambda
\end{equation}
now second order:
\begin{equation}
d\sin(\theta_3)=2\lambda_1\\
d\sin(\theta_4)=2\lambda_1+2\Delta\lambda
\end{equation}
the easiest way, I guess is to see the $n\Delta\lambda$

A: If $\sin \theta = n\lambda /D$, then
$$ \frac{d (\sin \theta)}{d\lambda} = \frac{n}{D}$$
$$\cos \theta \frac{d\theta}{d\lambda}= \frac{n}{D}$$
$$\frac{d\theta}{d\lambda}= \frac{n}{D\sqrt{1-\sin^2 \theta}}$$
$$\frac{d\theta}{d\lambda}= \frac{n}{D\sqrt{1-n^2\lambda^2/D^2}}$$
Thus the angular separation between two wavelengths, separated by $\Delta \lambda$ becomes larger, for larger values of $n$.
$$\Delta\theta \sim \left(\frac{n}{D\sqrt{1-n^2\lambda^2/D^2}}\right)\ \Delta \lambda$$
