Mobilizing German Muslims against extremism
Minister of Integration, Bilkay Öney, emphasized on the role of Muslims communities in combatting radical Islamism. Arguing that Islamic extremism being not only a general threat to the German society but also a threat to the security of Muslims, Islamic organizations and communities should take adequate measures as well as support state authorities.

Hooligans against Salafism
Throughout October, hooligans from different football clubs marched in German cities against radical Islam and Salafism. Building a coalition and network under the heading "HoGeSa", Hooligans Against Salafists (Hooligans gegen Salafisten), they demonstrated by the end of October in Cologne. Police and intelligence services were not only surprised by the number of attendees, which was tripled by the estimated 1500, but unable to cope with the violence involved. The demonstrations planned in Hamburg and Berlin for mid-November both were canceled. In case of Hamburg the organizers themselves withdraw the demonstration while in the case of Berlin the network never registered the demonstration properly. Now "HoGeSa" is planning another demonstration for the 15th November which is going to take place in Hannover.

In Germany, dealing with potential Jihad fighters
After a conference the German Interior Minister, Thomas de Maizière, announced that radical Islamists should be hindered to travel to war zones in order to join Jihad. This should be achieved by substituting the original ID card with a document which does not allow for exit. Indirectly, the ministry is also addressing the issue of Jihad fighters returning from Iraq/Syria and becoming a potential threat for the German society in general. Rolf Jäger, chairperson of the Interior Minister's Conference, emphasized on the double strategy of repression and prevention needed in order to stop radicalization. In relation to this Heiko Maaß, Federal Minister of Justice, suggested to tighten law regulations concerning two significant points: Firstly, people should be held accountable when funding terrorism and secondly, people should be held accountable for already leaving Germany in the attempt to pursue an act of violence as well as receive any training in this regard (there is no legal punishment for both within the given legal framework). Members of the Christian Democratic Union criticized this proposal as one not going far enough and thereby inadequate. The Union argued that the proposal should also include the mere promotion of a terrorist organization such as ISIS/ISIL. Meanwhile, the interior ministry of Bavaria has deported the Salafist Erhan A. to Turkey, after his endorsement of ISIS/ISIL, its ideological framework as well as the beheadings.

Sharia and English Law: A Secularist Success (The Economist)
The Law Society (a prestigious professional body for solicitors) reversed a guidance note to its members designed to help them formulate an Islamic will. The note recalled, for example, that in many circumstances a male relative can expect to receive twice as much as a female, and that non-Muslims cannot inherit at all.

Secular France Moves to Confront Jihadism After Slow Start (Reuters)
France has been slow to respond to the spread of jihadist ideology because strict state secularism forbids any incursion into individuals' religious affairs. This has created a breeding ground that has pulled in converts like Guillaume, radicalized while in prison for assaulting a police officer.(Reuters)

In Spain, "The radical ideas are being transmitted in the virtual world."
Riay Tatary, president of the Union of Islamic Communities (UCIDE) of Spain defended yesterday that Islam "is peace and therefore can not be used as a synonym for violence or terrorism."
He also insisted that the Muslim Spanish community is well integrated and that " radical ideas are being transmitted over the Internet, in the virtual world. It occurs in homes, in closed rooms. " He also pointed out that the youth receives a weak islamic educaction through the web and this creates a need among the community to strenghten universal values such as such as coexistence, tolerance, justice, equality, freedom.

Sarkozy speaks about Islam, integration and Rachida Dati's roots
Several days before the vote for the UMP presidency, Nicolas Sarkozy mentioned "one of his favorite themes," that is, "integration the French way." According to Sarkozy, it is the "biggest failure in thirty years." He quickly elaborated on this statement, saying, "It is not a question of our fellow Muslims, most of whom bring honor to France." He added, "The question, is not only to ask what the Republic can do for Islam, but what Islam can do for France."
The next day, after being questioned by activists about his views on diversity, he discussed Rachida Dati's appointment as Minister of Justice. "I said to myself that Rachida Dati, with an Algerian father and Moroccan mother, to talk about penal policy, that made sense," he added.
While several were quick to question his decision, many believe it he chose Dati because of the large North African population in prison. Sarkozy's entourage defended his decision and said that Dati's appointment sent an important signal to immigrants.
"When you always speak of origins and skin color in a certain way, you divide citizens into different categories, and it's not my vision of things," says Francois Bayrou concerning Sarkozy's statement.

How to spot a Muslim according to the Board of Education in Poitiers
Charles Martel has returned to the Board of Education in Poitiers. A document meant to help teachers detect signs of radicalization in students is said to have taken a "dislike" to Islam, according to information from Mediapart.
The document classifies signs of radicalization in the following manner: having a long beard, wearing religious clothing, shaving one's head, refusing to get tattoos or practicing intensive fasts. The information was presented in a PowerPoint and also discusses Palestine, Chechnya and Iraq. According to Mediapart, the presentation was made by a section of the "mobile security team" (EMS) whose members are ex-police officers or gendarmes. EMS was created in 2009 to ensure the security of educational establishments.
After being interviewed on France Bleu, Magali Espinasse, member of the union Snes-FSU, expressed her disapproval of the document. She referred to it as a "gross caricature" that contained "outrageous simplifications," calling it "racism, pure and simple."
Minister of Education Najat Vallaud-Belkacem said "maybe the words aren't perfect, and we will indeed improve things."

Kev Adams says stop to making automatic associations between Muslims and Terrorists
Kev Adams did not hesitate to defend French Muslims, who are "constantly in the spotlight" because of the Islamic State's actions. His statement of support happened during his program On n'est pas couché on November 22.
He apologized for any associations between terrorism and Islam. "There are young adults that listen to me and one must not make automatic associations, Muslims are not terrorists, Muslims are good people," he said.
"I've been lucky to tour in France, I like being able to visit different communities and I've been to many mosques where I saw that the discourse there is to tell the kids: 'be proud to be Muslims…and to be French Muslims.'" Adams says it is "completely wrong" to say that they are terrorists, and added, "It's important for me to say it on television."
Before his show, journalist Elise Lucet highlighted the work done in mosques to combat radicalization. "In mosques there are people who are doing everything they can so that young adults, converts or Muslims, have a different vision of Islam, thanks to what they are taught."
Adams's sentiments were not all well-received by his fans. However, there have been many congratulatory messages that have multiplied after significant media coverage. "Thank you for your kind messages (and even the mean ones) about #OPNC or #VTEP! It is truly touching! #Love," he wrote.

Since its establishment in 1993 the American Communications Network, or more popularly known as ACN, has built itself into one of the best international telecommunications company in the world. This company has achieved this feat using a strategy called multi-level marketing. This strategy involves providing an opportunity to individuals to earn money at home by turning them into sales personnel. Each member gets compensation for his or her own contributions to the company, as well as for the contributions of each person that he or she entices to join.
It is through the use of this strategy that ACN telecommunications has managed to climb to the top spot. Critics of the company however have given nothing but negative feedbacks for the company and its marketing strategy. Some would even go as far as saying that ACN telecommunications is a pyramid scheme which is a form of fraud.
Through the years ACN telecommunications has been accused of being a scam. But the mere fact that ACN has been approved in over 20 different countries means that it is legal and it does work. The company has also been given an A+ rating by the Better Business Bureau. The company has even been endorsed by Mr. Donald Trump himself in his reality TV show, the Celebrity apprentice. This company is currently at the top of its game in terms of global telecommunications.
Despite the huge number of negative feedbacks, ACN telecommunications does have some wordy warriors for its team. One review published by an ACN representative stated that ACN provided the opportunity he needed to be his own boss. He also stated that in a time where many large companies were having layoffs, ACN provided the perfect means of gaining income which helped him get by.
Another representative stated that being a member of the marketing team made him benefit from discounts in services that he was already using and paying for anyway. Another satisfied representative highlighted that ACN telecommunications is beneficial for those traveling internationally because it gives you the permit to work in over 20 countries.
Representatives also agree that the ACN compensation plan is indeed fair because it provides good commissions if you are willing to do the work.
Beneath all of these positive comments however still lie a number of negative reviews and criticisms about the company. Majority of the reviews of unsatisfied ACN representatives go along the same lines: the income is slow and small. They stated that they didn't get a return of investment for their initial contribution of $499. One particular reviewer and representative even stated that the company owed him over $1500 because he was required to buy some products of the company for him to be able to market them effectively.
Another comment these critics had about ACN telecommunications is that its trainers and speakers did not focus on training them to become successful representatives. They commented that the trainers were only focused on recruiting and sugaring up the company's business plan so that the listeners would be instantly hooked.
These criticisms have led other reviewers to conclude that ACN is a scam and have made them discourage new people from joining the company.
As mentioned above, ACN telecommunications is a company that is truly legitimate and ACN representatives need not worry about it being a scam. For those thinking about joining, or have already joined but are unsure of their standing, the question to be asked is not whether ACN is a fraud, but if ACN is indeed the most suitable means of earning an income for them.
There are people who have made a lot of money using the company, but these people have managed to break away from just recruiting and selling within the circle of their friends and families. Some of them have even gone as far as going to the streets and talking to strangers just to get a new recruit. This type of strategy can be uncomfortable for people, which makes them fail in this type of business venture.

Full text of their letters to the president of the literary institution explaining their decisions to return the national honour.
It is with utmost regret that I convey to you that I wish to return the 1993 Sahitya Akademi Award given in the category of books in English to my work After Amnesia (1992). I do this as an expression of my solidarity with several eminent writers who have recently returned their awards to highlight their concern and anxiety over the shrinking space for free expression and growing intolerance towards difference of opinion.
These eminent writers have already stated their concerns in statements sent to you as well as through media interviews and discussions. I need not, therefore, state again what has already been conveyed to you. However, I would like to add that I visited Dharwad in the first week of August, just three weeks before the shocking attack on the late Dr MM Kalburgi which resulted in his death. I was there to deliver the First VK Gokak Memorial Lecture.
You may recall that the high office that you hold at present, on behalf of the literary community of our country, was at one time held, among many other mighty predecessors, by VK Gokak. He was the Principal of Willingdon College during the years of the Independence movement. On one occasion, when the police came to arrest students, he stood at the entrance of the college, blocked their entry and asked them to first arrest him before they touched the students. It was this kind of concern for freedom that he brought to the institutions he headed. I hope you do not think that he was not sufficiently pragmatic.
When I gave the Gokak lecture, Dr Kalburgi was still alive. Alas, he had to fall to the forces of intolerance. A week after his killing, I participated in a Seminar organised by the Sahitya Akademi. This was in Nagpur. I was to preside over the Inaugural Session. I was quite dismayed to see that the seminar began without a word of reference to the recent attack on a scholar honoured by the Akademi. Therefore, when my turn to speak came at the end of the session, I asked the audience if they would object to my observing a two-minute silence to mourn the dastardly killing. Please note that all of them stood up in silence with me. If our writers and literary scholars had the courage to stand up in Nagpur, I fail to understand why there should be such a deafening silence at Ravindra Bhavan about what is happening to free expression in our country.
In 2012, I was awarded the Sahitya Akademi Yuva Puraskar, an award given by the Akademi for writers under the age of 35. At the time, I was conflicted about accepting the award as I wondered if I should accept an award conferred by the state.
I chose to accept the award as I believed the Akademi's official charter that states that the institution is an autonomous, publicly funded body registered as a society under the Societies Registration Act of 1980. Thus, the Akademi, to use an analogy, is an autonomous institution much the same way that public universities are autonomous – they are state-funded, i.e. they are run on public money, but are not government run. The Akademi award is thus a state honour, not a "government" honour – and this is an important distinction.
We, as citizens, have as much a claim on the Sahitya Akademi as any government of the day. Accepting the award, I thought at the time, would be a way of asserting our claim on this space of collective articulation, and acknowledging the efforts of the Akademi's members in carving out an autonomous space for arts and letters in India.
Today, I would like to return my award and have sent an email to the institution, informing them of my decision. While I believe the arguments I have listed above are still valid, recent events suggest that the Akademi is neither interested in supporting writers in their fight to push the boundaries of expression and thought, nor in asserting its autonomy at a time when the spirit of critical inquiry is clearly under threat.
I am shocked by the Akademi's refusal to take a firm stance on the assassination of scholar, rationalist and Sahitya Akademi Award winner M.M. Kalburgi (a condolence meeting is not the same as a statement of solidarity) and its silence in the face of attacks on writers like U.R. Ananthamurthy, and Perumal Murugan in the past. This appears to be in line with what Akademi President Vishwanath Prasad Tiwari calls the institution's "tradition" of staying silent on "political controversies".
The Akademi cannot simultaneously draw its legitimacy of purpose and existence by celebrating writers like Kaliburgi, while shying clear of standing in solidarity when they are targeted. Here, the idea of a workers union offers a useful analogy in that a union is relevant only for as along it is autonomous and serves its members. When a union becomes a tool for management – as many unions eventually become – workers break away and form their own associations that may, or may not, choose the union form.
In this instance, I think, a number of writers (some of whom have written books I admire) feel that the Akademi has failed in its primary purpose of supporting authors. While I may or may not agree with all the views and politics of all those who have returned their awards, I stand with them on this specific issue.
Institutions like the Sahitya Akademi need writers, authors, and journalists much more than we need them. We are fortunate that our primary loyalties reside with our readers. It is to our readers that we are answerable, not to institutions of state.
Update: This article has been updated to add Aman Sethi's resignation letter.

Pharmacotherapy for dementia
HyunChul Youn, Hyun Ghang Jeong

Dementia is a clinical syndrome characterized by a cluster of symptoms and signs that manifest as difficulties in cognitive functions such as memory, psychological and psychiatric changes, and impairments in activities of daily living. As a result of worldwide trends of population aging, dementia has had a huge impact on public health in almost all countries. Disease modification therapies for dementia have not yet been developed. However, pharmacotherapy is essential in patients with dementia to combat delays in their cognitive and functional decline. In this article, we review the current pharmacotherapy for dementia. Three acetylcholinesterase inhibitors—donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine—and memantine are the only medications that have been approved for the treatment of dementia. We present the indications, dose recommendations, side effects, and criteria for National Health Insurance coverage in Korea of these medications for dementia treatment. Although the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in Korea has not approved any medications for managing the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia, some antipsychotics and antidepressants have been studied and used clinically for those purposes. Clinicians may consider vitamin E, Ginkgo biloba extract, choline alfoscerate, or omega-3 fatty acids as additional treatment options. Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs, estrogen hormone therapy, and statins are not generally recommended for dementia treatment. We believe that our findings will aid clinicians in the treatment of patients with cognitive decline.

Ready for the FITness test?
The Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) has introduced a new general insurance test, to be available as part of a membership package.
The Foundation Insurance Test (FIT) has already won the support of the General Insurance Standards Council (GISC). It said the test would help firms fulfil its training requirements.
The FIT has been designed for young people and comprises 100 multiple-choice questions on the general insurance market, risk and insurance principles and procedures.
A year's membership, the test and course book will cost £95 if applications are sent before May. The test and course book alone are £70 for CII members. The first testing session will be held in April.
The CII plans to run a themed promotional campaign which will challenge the industry to "demonstrate they can meet the insurance FITness test".
CII director general Sandy Scott said FIT should become a minimum standard for anyone selling insurance or working in the industry.
A GISC spokeswoman said the type of training needed varied throughout the industry, making FIT a useful addition.

We're Not Listening
Shooting Stars - Put'emup, Put'emup, pt. 1
The story of Put'emup, Put'emup is a weird one. Well, to be honest, it only gets weird after they release their first full-length album – but you could probably write 100,000 words about the crazy shit they pulled as that record rocked the charts, and this is just their origin story.
This Chicago-based quartet has humble beginnings like the other bands that formed before them, and at the very heart of their pop-punk jams is the dynamite duo known as Andy Allen and Anthony Alvarez. With their repetitive initials, it seemed like a sort of fate that they would end up inseparable, and what sealed the deal even further was the odd chemistry they shared – it sparked in their freshman year of high school, and it's been burning to this day.
Well…give or take a few fistfights and arguments that range from petty to monumental.
See, opposites attract, but only sometimes. Half the time they spent in each other's company was spent bickering over the dumbest things, and a lot of it was due to the fundamental differences in their ways of thinking: Andy tries his hardest to make people happy, Anthony is a raging pessimist and puts his own comfort first, except when it comes to the rare panic attacks that strike Andy every so often. Andy came from a broken family – an alcoholic single dad, to be exact – and Anthony's parents and sisters supported any endeavor he took on. When one of his sisters, Catalina, was killed in a car accident, Andy stepped in and held his hand all throughout the grieving process.
And as was said before, they had an odd sort of chemistry. It shows up in the music they create with the other two young men they banded together with, how Andy's vocals are deep and strong while Anthony's voice is high and controlled. When they duet, their lyrics interact with each other, like it's always been their intention to speak through music.
Andy had his chunky fingers in two things – chorus and art. For their entire freshman year of high school, he'd been trying to get Anthony to join the school choir with him just so he wouldn't be alone, and also because Anthony didn't have a half-bad singing voice. When they were sophomores, he finally gave in, and although they were far from choirboys, Andy's tenor and Anthony's alto had found places to develop, and the techniques they learned would be carried around for life.
In two other places in Illinois, there were two other guys existing in their own worlds. One of these dudes happened to live in Joliet, the other residing in Champagne, and all four of them united at the University of Chicago in 2005.
The Joliet native was a jolly fella who was named Mick Magellan. He grew up wanting to be a teacher, and anybody he ever crossed paths with would only be treated with kindness. In 2003 he packed his bags and went to UChicago to get his teaching degree, leaving his drum kit at home under the assumption that his hobby probably wouldn't come in handy where he was going.
Chance Chauncey, hailing from Champagne, had always found himself messing around with one instrument or another. Music came naturally to the tall blond, his fingers sounding out scales along the frets of his Les Paul, and in 2004, he ended up at UChicago in hopes of studying music. It was that year that he accidentally crossed paths with Mick – though, "crossing paths" probably isn't the right term to use, since it only implies one meeting.
The drummer and guitarist ended up becoming roommates in a random selection process, but to say that they hit it off would be an understatement. Despite Mick's unwavering friendliness, he never had a real "best friend," and even though Chance could go an entire day without uttering a single word, they found solace in each other's company. Long days in strenuous classes would end with a movie marathon complete with microwave brownies courtesy of Mick, and well, it beat going to frat parties and waking up hungover.
They went to their homes in that summer of 2005 and kept in touch via email, unbeknownst to the storm that was about to revive the music-related dream that they both kept hidden.
The storm? It was a tornado. It was Anthony and Andy alternating between fighting and being best friends, and in the fall of 2005 they were crashing the university.

And so we start the last band's saga! (Well, okay, they're not the "most recent" band to get signed to Not Listening in this universe's timeline, but I have a four-part novel series detailing the newest band's journey.)
There will be lampshade hanging, and lots of it. xD


Showcasing a stunning pool installation to a prospective customer is a sure-fire way to impress. That's exactly what Richard Bishop, Director of Aqua Thermae, did when Huw Pendleton of Celtic Holiday Parks was referred to the company by existing customer, St Brides Marine Spa in Pembrokeshire. But instead of focusing on the pool, the visit centred on the plantroom.
The required manual pool testing is supported by an internet monitoring system which allows Aqua Thermae to check Free Chlorine and pH levels, Redox and pool temperature and, if necessary, to make adjustments remotely. 24/7 support is delivered with email alerts through Aqua Thermae and the pool manager if a problem is detected, allowing the Leisure Park to expedite remedial action.
Richard continued: "I am a big fan of Zeoclere30 and of good suppliers like MSI which support its products. Unlike sand or glass, Zeoclere is not just a mechanical filter; it's a problem solver because it mechanically and chemically filters water, removing metals and ammonia." Designed specifically for high-pressure filters, Zeoclere delivers water clarity that is 60% better than accepted sand standards. This performance level brings maintenance benefits; less backwashing of thousands of litres of heated, chemically treated water to waste which reduces costs and protects the environment.
Croft Leisure Park in Pembrokeshire enjoys a location on the edge of a National Park, so protecting the nearby environment is as important as providing crystal clear pool water. Chlorine must be removed from the wastewater by passing through the de-chlorination tank, and Zeoclere30 helps guarantee the backwash volumes will be dramatically reduced.
Both bathers and the local authority have lauded praise on the pool installation. Two recent water health scares involving Cryptosporidium in public pools in Wales have resulted in the Welsh Public Health Authority becoming very focused on pool water management and it is targeting all public pools to ensure plantrooms operate efficiently within current guidance. Aqua Thermae proactively invited the local Health & Safety officer to view the Croft Leisure Park pool and plantroom and was advised that they would like to consider using the pool as an exemplar for other operators in Wales.
Aqua Thermae has also used Zeoclere30 during the recent refurbishment of the hydrotherapy pool at the Heart of the Forest Special School, in the Forest of Dean. The school installed a speed controlled hydro-active air bed for fun, wellbeing and active hydrotherapy. The premium advanced media with its proven ammonia removal is a must for pristine hydrotherapy pool water with high bather demands to ensure the enjoyment of the pool by the children and staff alike.

The Government will have up to 7,500 million less margin to spend in 2023 | Economy | The USA Print
The president of the Independent Authority for Fiscal Responsibility (AIReF), Cristina Herrero.Eph
The fiscal rules imposed by Europe to ensure the sustainability of public accounts are not in force this year or next. These budget corsets were lifted to combat the consequences of the pandemic and the war in Ukraine. Unlike what happened in the previous euro crisis, Brussels has allowed the fiscal hole to decrease simply with the drop in spending due to covid and the improvement of the economy and, therefore, of income. At the end of 2021, this deficit reached around 80,000 million euros, 6.87% of GDP and the equivalent of three quarters of what is collected by personal income tax. There is still a lot to reduce. But in this way for now there would be no need to undertake cuts or tax increases. However, the European Commission has given a first signal that we must begin to monitor budget developments. Especially when rate hikes are approaching that will make the high accumulated debt more expensive.
Brussels has established a first recommendation for 2023 so that all countries with high indebtedness begin to moderate spending. It is not in any case about cuts, just about containing current disbursements. In addition, member countries often ignore these requirements while the Commission turns a blind eye. Even so, this time they would be linked to the disbursement of European funds if the Community Executive wanted to harden a position that for the moment has been quite flexible. The recommendation is to put a ceiling on the growth of current outlays by removing interest and measures to deal with the energy crisis. These should not increase in 2023 beyond the potential growth of the economy in the medium term. How much does this imply? According to calculations by the Tax Authority, disclosed by President Cristina Herrero in a forum of the consulting firm EY, the increase in spending should be moderated by some 7,500 million, a figure that represents three quarters of the monthly pension payroll.

Instead of raising the budget by some 24,000 million as appears in a report by the institution on public accounts, the Executive could only raise it by 16,500 million. Instead of increasing current disbursements by 4.3%, they would have to grow by nearly 3%. As a consequence, the deficit for next year would remain at 2.7% of GDP compared to the 3.3% that the Fiscal Authority had projected.
If the stability program that the Government has sent to Brussels is taken, the growth of current expenses will stand at 3.7% in 2023. And it should be contained at almost 3%. This means that it should only advance by 14.5 billion instead of 19 billion. In other words, a reduction of 4,500 million in the increase in planned spending, which would cause the deficit to end at 3.5% of GDP and not the 3.9% that the Government now has as its objective.
The pension problem
The problem is that one of the main items of the State, pensions, which represent a third of the total with more than 170,000 million, will grow by around 8%: approximately 6% due to the revaluation with the CPI and the rest due to the increase in the number of pensioners and the effect of substituting some benefits for new, higher ones. If pensions climb around 8%, the other two thirds will have to compensate by growing significantly below 3%. Or said in euros, pensions would rise by about 14,000 million, leaving little room for the rest just when the Executive faces the elections and needs support to approve the budget. It would only have European funds as a margin and increase aid for inflation.
Also Read Indra will install electronic warfare systems in the most stealthy European submarine | Economy | The USA Print
In 2018, current spending without interest grew by 4%. In 2019, 5.6%. And in 2020, subtracting the expense for the pandemic, it barely rebounded by 1.4%. According to Commission calculations, current disbursements, financed with the national budget and subtracting emergency measures due to the crisis, have been growing by more than 7% last year and this year. In other words, the government would have to further moderate spending in the next budget, coinciding with the electoral period.
In any case, countries often fail to comply with these recommendations. Community sources explain that surveillance of this will not be strict, given the environment of high uncertainty and that the calculation of potential growth seems highly questionable. The Government will also have European funds to be able to prepare an expansive investment budget, these sources recall. As much as the payment of European funds is linked to the recommendation, it does not seem that the Commission now wants to put a country in trouble. Even so, the Spanish Executive will probably try, at least on paper, to adhere somewhat to Brussels' demand.

Q: Not clickable Transform data in Power BI menu I've already uploaded data from SQL Analysis services, and after this I can make any calculations or make any changers in the report because Transform data is unclickable and I cannot use Power Query Editor .
But if I upload data from SQL Server then everything works fine.
Could you help me, please, find the reason why I cannot work with data from SQL Analysis services?

A: There are different ways to work with Analysis Services. When using the UI, the default way is to connect to the whole data model. That means you can use all the pre-defined measures for example. If you want to add additional tables to that model, you have to change the connection to direct query.

White Papers TOP
Knowledge = Information in Context on the importance of Semantic Contextualisation in Europeana
(europeana.eu): Europeana's first White Paper looks at the key role linked data will play in Europeana's development and in helping Europe's citizens make connections between existing knowledge to achieve new cultural and scientific developments. Without linked data, Europeana could be seen as a simple collection of digital objects. With linked data, the potential is far greater, as the author of the white paper, Prof. Stefan Gradmann, explains.
Addressing the Challenge: Cataloguing Electronic Books in Academic Libraries
(ejournals.library.ualberta.ca): This paper explores the various issues and challenges arising from e-book cataloguing experienced at the University of Windsor's Leddy Library and the Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL). This discussion uses an evidence -based approach to identify and resolve issues relevant to academic libraries as well as to consortia. With the ever rising popularity of e-books within academic libraries, cataloguing librarians are actively seeking more effective methods of managing this new electronic medium, including the development of new cataloguing policies and procedures. This paper will explore the various issues and challenges surrounding e-book cataloguing and processing within academic libraries, and will identify new policies and procedures that may be used to effectively assist in e-book management.
Open Access Citation Advantage: Studies and Results to Date
(eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk): This paper presents a summary of reported studies on the Open Access citation advantage. There is a brief introduction to the main issues involved in carrying out such studies, both methodological and interpretive. The study listing provides some details of the coverage, methodological approach and main conclusions of each study.
E-Books and ISBNs: a position paper and action points from the International ISBN Agency
(bisg.org): The International ISBN Agency continues to recommend that publishers should assign ISBNs to each e-book format separately available. Publishers should supply their ISBNs to downstream intermediaries and channels if they are creating their own formats. There will, however, be instances of compressed supply chains where an e-book in a particular format is available exclusively through a single channel (e.g. Kindle). In those circumstances there is no requirement for an ISBN, unless the publisher needs it for control purposes. (A simple guiding principle is that a product needs a separate identifier if the supply chain needs to identify it separately).
Use of Web 2.0 tools and services in the UK HE sector
(ie-repository.jisc.ac.uk): Currently there is limited knowledge of who is using Web 2.0 and for what purposes. Even less is known about why specific tools and services are chosen, especially in situations where JISC and institutionally-provided services are available. This survey has therefore focused on the current and active users of Web 2.0 tools and services in UK Higher Education institutions and identifying what they are using and why. Although mainstream use of Web 2.0 services is growing and will continue to grow over time, no specific predictions can be made regarding the rate of take-up. An increasing proportion of new entrants to HE and FE are already familiar with and using Web 2.0 services but this does not apply to everyone and there is a need to support a range of very varied learner backgrounds and expectations.

by Debashish on Fri 15 Dec 2006 11:47 AM PST Profile Permanent Link
This profound conversation has so much in it to "stir the deeper ranges" in anyone. In the last part, Sri Aurobindo is pointing the direction to the methodology for a subjective Science which we had been discussing earlier on sciy (in the comments for "The Convergence of Science and Spirituality by the Dalai Lama" and for "The Death of Man or Post-Humanism 101". (These links are to the relevant comments and not the articles themselves). It also connects to Sri Aurobindo's chapter in the Life Divine on The Methods of Vedantic Knowledge
Here he is indicating an individual process of intuition validated by experimentation, observation and experience and leading to deeper intuitions and their validation. This develops the inner field of knowledge. In the Dalai Lama article, the Dalai Lama in fact points to the prevalence of intuition even in Science. Einstein also held these views and is known to have attempted to make a case for Intuition as the foundation for hypotheses rather than Reason. But there is one more aspect of Science which can be related to a corresponding aspect in a field of Subjective Science. This is the aspect of collective knowledge. Science expands through its methodical verifiability and repeatability and the accumulated discourse gathering around this and available to all. The corresponding aspect in a Subjecive Science is the discursive field of sastra, siksha, vitraka and darshana. Sastra is the codified "tradition" of received experiences, siksha is the pedagogical method of dissemination, vitarka is the field of distinction-making and comparative phenomenology and darshana (on which all the others rest as their base) is the non-dual act of truth-seeing and showing.
The existence of this discursive field in India (not necessarily restricted to literate culture and in a state of constant translation between written, oral and darshanic states) is what made the culture of yoga so widespread and vital and caused the historical phenomenon which Sri Aurobindo refers to when he says "India preserves that which preserves the world." In our seeking for a post-human destiny as a regime of Truth, it is a discursive field of this nature that we may need to create for a new global culture. DB
by Debashish on Fri 15 Dec 2006 12:08 PM PST Profile Permanent Link The relation of "agni" (fire) to form-building gives pause for much reflection. In our human utilization of "fire" all we are capable of is form-destruction through fire. When Sri Aurobindo is talking of saura agni (solar fire) here and mentioning the closeness in structure and dynamics of the atom and the solar system and pointing to the possible discovery of a new form of "fire" arising from this similarity, he is talking of course, of "atomic fire," nuclear energy. Did this conversation take place before the discovery of the processes of fission and fusion? "Atomic fire" for us is the greatest destructive energy available to man. It has constructive uses also, as in generating energy, but this also is not form-building. It can be used in processes of transmutation of elements and this is coming closer to a form-building property, but can it really be called so?
The aspect of "form-building" for "fire" opened up a new understanding of Shiva Nataraja for me. Usually it is the human equation of fire with destruction which is applied to the fire in the raised left hand of the dancing Shiva. The "damaru" in the raised right hand is related to the rhythms, chhandas of creation and is therefore considered creative. But I can now see that both these are both creative and destructive. Nataraja, by the way, combines all the five elements in his Being and Becoming - the Agni is evident, the damaru indicates Akasha or Vyoma (ether), Ganga streaming from his head is apas (water), his movments themesleves represent the circulations of Vayu (wind or the aerial/contactual principle) and his dance is based on prithvi (earth). DB
