Los Angeles Photographers Collection
Location/Accession N-007-254 8x10
Notes Title supplied by cataloger.; Herman J. Schultheis was born in Aachen, Germany in 1900, and immigrated to the United States in the mid-1920s after obtaining a Ph.D. in mechanical and electrical engineering. He married Ethel Wisloh in 1936, and the pair moved to Los Angeles the following year. He worked in the film industry from the late 1930s to the mid-1940s, most notably on the animated features Fantasia and Pinocchio. His detailed notebook, documenting the special effects for Fantasia, is the subject of a 14-minute short-subject included on the film's DVD. In 1949, he started employment with Librascope as a patent engineer. Schultheis was an avid amateur photographer who traveled the world with his cameras. It was on one of these photographic exhibitions in 1955 that he disappeared in the jungles of Guatemala. His remains were discovered 18 months later. The digitized portion of this collection represents the images Schultheis took of Los Angeles and its surrounding communities after he relocated to the area in 1937.
Historical Data Pueblo La Brea (6813 West Third Street) was a mixed-use residential and commercial Latin American village in the Fairfax district, which included La Bonita Factory, which made pottery and was owned by P. Espinosa and the Hispanic Provincial Shop, which was owned by E. Orena de Koch and Don Felipe Delgado.

Develop TM1 Applications with Performance Modeler is a two-day course. In this course, TM1 developers will learn the basic features to develop and deploy web-based Contributor applications. This course was developed with IBM Cognos TM1 10.2.2, but is applicable to IBM Planning Analytics.
I was impressed with the instructor's professionalism, care and effort in the training. She also interacted and consulted me about unrelated subject matters which were important to me.

Q: Binary '<' : 'const_Ty' does not define this operator or a conversion to a type acceptable to the predefined operator I am getting the same error in my own code. This is a small example. Where is the problem?
#include <set>
using namespace std;

class Table{};

struct MyStruct
{
    set<Table> arr;
};

int main()
{
    MyStruct a;
    Table t;
    a.arr.insert(t); // Here it gives C2676 error
}

A: std::set is an ordered container. For custom types you are expected to provide an ordering for your type. The simple way to do that is to define operator< for your type.
// return true if table x should go before table y in the set
bool operator<(const Table& x, const Table& y)
{
    ...
}

Because you didn't do that (or any of the other options) you get the error. The standard library doesn't know how to order your tables within the set.

Passion about what I'm doing. When you love something, it is a great motivation. I moved from different industries and passion was always behind this movement. When I reach a point where I think I am repeating myself in a position, that's when I know it's time to move. This could be within the company or to another company. Right now, HR is my passion.
It's not who, but more a case of what. Learning is what inspires me. When I feel I'm at a place where I am learning, it keeps me motivated and looking forward. Some people see new projects as challenging and decide not to go for them, but I look at these situations as a learning opportunity.
My biggest achievement is people and this is what my success is all about. I'm a strong believer in teamwork and wherever I go, I consider myself successful when I build a strong team around me. Having been able to do this several times is probably my biggest success.
First of all, I want to make sure I am learning all the time. To keep an advantage over competitors, you need to speak the global language. The best way is by having alliances and affiliations with international bodies, as this will always keep us on top of our game. I'm always looking for new things and new ideas. I would also like to take Injaz to the next level and lead in the market, not only in Oman, but also in the GCC. We are doing well in this regard, but I can't say it's achieved already.
Q: Where do you see yourself in 10 years' time?
In an advisory position where I can help Omani talent and local organisations. I will be focusing my efforts in the near future on change management. It's a new field in management, but here in Oman and the GCC it's not yet taken its position.
Q: What do you think of the Genesis, the premium series of Hyundai Motor Company?
Driving the Centennial was a really nice experience. It looks good, feels luxurious from the inside and can chauffeur you in style and comfort. All in all, it's a car that pampers the occupant and offers a great ride in comfort and luxury. Thumbs up to the Centennial and the driving experience.

Location: Iron Mountain, Michigan
Webpage: Museum
General Description: As the iron mining industry was winding down in the 1920s, Henry Ford brought new life to the region with the purchase of 313,000 acres of timberland for logging. His goal was to create a self-sufficient automobile manufacturing plant in the new town of Rockford, Michigan. Along with a massive automobile plant producing the Woody Wagon, Ford constructed a massive sawmill complex and hydroelectric plant to provide the framework, floorboards, panels, and wheels for the Woody. A sideline of the sawmill was the development of charcoal briquets from the sawdust that led to the formation of Kingsford Charcoal. Like many industries, the Ford Motor Plant and sawmill retooled for war production during World War II. Instead of building cars, the plant produced Model CG-4A gliders. By the end of the war they had produced 4,190 gliders, which was more than all the other manufacturers combined and at much lower cost. The primary use of the gliders during the war was to provide a silent delivery of men and materials behind enemy lines at night. Consequently they were a single use aircraft and often salvaged for parts once landed. The gliders were used in most of the theaters of war including Italy, China, Normandy, Southern France, Germany, and the Philippines.
1) The main attraction of the museum is a restored Model CG-4A glider, one of seven that have been restored. The exhibits include displays of building material and construction techniques. You can also look inside the glider to get a real sense of the spartan conditions on the inside.
2) In addition to the glider, the museum also a restored World War II vintage Jeep, a 1930's Model AA Ford dump truck and a Model A Ford Tudor sedan.

I am a psychoanalyst working in private practice in Goa on India's west coast. I am also a child analyst, currently offering psychoanalytic psychotherapy to children and adolescents at a not-for-profit organisation that works with children with special needs.
I came into psychoanalysis after having worked as a journalist for 25 years. I was fortunate to be in Mumbai at that time where I trained to become an analyst with the Mumbai Chapter of the Indian Psychoanalytical Society (a member of the IPA). I began practice 15 years ago in Mumbai. Today I practise as a psychoanalyst in Goa and I remain a member of the Psychoanalytic Therapy and Research Centre (PTRC) in Mumbai. I'm on the faculty of the PTRC, conducting Skype seminars and supervisions with candidates in Mumbai.
I'm delighted and honoured to be part of the editorial team of the ejournal. I look forward greatly to collating writings from authors in the Asia Pacific region, in order to help the cross-fertilisation of psychoanalytic concepts and practices across nations and make these more accessible to readers far and wide.

How many mutations does it take?Hint: It is not one.
A while ago I posted on the idea that we should look at genes like keys on a piano. The number of tunes that can be cranked out is astounding. Sometimes a single key is played or in combinations. Some are rarely played but still can produce beautiful music.
Now someone else has picked up on this idea.
The NOVA U.S. public television program described epigenetics as "The Ghost In Your Genes." It is the study of changes in gene expression that occur without changes in DNA sequence. Like keys on a piano, DNA is the static blueprint for all the proteins that cells produce. Epigenetic information provides additional dynamic or flexible instructions as to how, where and when the blueprint will be used. "It corresponds to a pianist playing a piece of music," said Kohzoh Mitsuya, Ph.D., postdoctoral fellow in the School of Medicine at The University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio.
Bradley Monton, author of Seeking God in Science: An Atheist Defends Intelligent Design (Broadview Press, 2009), p. 36.
Consider some feature of the universe, such as its beginning to exist (assuming that it did begin to exist). There are various competing explanations we can consider for such a feature, and one of those explanations will be that the feature was due to an intelligent cause. We may judge this explanation to be the best one but it doesn't follow that the explanation is true. The right account could be that there's no explanation at all for why the universe has the feature that it does.
Thus, if the doctrine of intelligent design is as I've stated above, with the claim that the best explanation for the features is an intelligent cause, then I endorse intelligent design. I can do this, as an atheist, because I reject the inference that the best explanation is true or even likely to be true. My opinion is that it's probably the case that the true account is that there's no explanation at all.
- Bradley Monton, author of Seeking God in Science: An Atheist Defends Intelligent Design (Broadview Press, 2009), p. 36.
A new front has opened up in the battle between scientists and advocates of intelligent design, a theory that rejects evolution and is regarded by its critics as another term for creationism.A scientific journal has published a paper that argues in favour of intelligent design — the first time such material has appeared in a peer-reviewed publication, according to biologists who track the issue.

FAQ Resource - Uncontested Divorce Lawyer
Answers from a NYC Uncontested Divorce Lawyer
Q: What is the difference between uncontested divorce and contested divorce?
Q: What are the advantages of an uncontested divorce?
Q: Is uncontested divorce right for me and my spouse?
Q: What are the grounds for divorce in this state?
Q: How is property divided in a divorce?
Q: What determines whether alimony will be paid?
Q: How do we decide child custody?
What is the difference between uncontested divorce and contested divorce?
In an uncontested divorce, you and your spouse negotiate an out-of-court settlement which addresses all the important aspects of the divorce based on your own preferences and agreements. In a contested divorce, on the other hand, you and your spouse cannot come to agreements and bring the case before a judge who decides on these issues for you.
What are the advantages of an uncontested divorce?
In either type of divorce, you end up being required to abide by the terms of divorce, but an uncontested divorce allows you and your spouse to stay in charge of the process, rather than being subject to the dictates of the judge. An uncontested divorce is also more private, as you will not have to expose your personal finances and private affairs to public scrutiny in the courtroom. Another advantage is that it is nearly always faster and far less expensive. One of the chief advantages of this approach is that it often enables the parties to maintain a more amicable and respectful relationship, which can be especially important when there are children involved.
Is uncontested divorce right for me and my spouse?
Uncontested divorce is generally a far better approach than contested divorce, but it is not necessarily right for everyone. If you and your spouse simply cannot get along and find it difficult to agree on anything, uncontested divorce may not be an option for you. If, on the other hand, you are both determined to work out a mutually beneficial settlement and are willing to engage in respectful and constructive negotiations, you can most likely achieve success in an uncontested divorce.
What are the grounds for divorce in this state?
New York was the final state in the country to allow no-fault divorce, so it is now possible for you and your spouse to file for divorce without the necessity of proving that either party is responsible for the failure of the marriage. All that is required is that you can demonstrate that the marriage is "irretrievably broken." The fault based grounds, which include cruel and inhuman treatment, willful abandonment, three consecutive years of imprisonment of either spouse, and adultery, may influence factors such as the payment of spousal support or child custody. These factors do not, however, normally come up in an uncontested divorce.
How is property divided in a divorce?
The division of assets and debts in a New York City divorce is decided according to the legal principle of equitable distribution. This means that the goal is to reach a division which is fair, even if it is not strictly equal. Rather than making an even 50-50 split of your shared assets and debts, the division will be made according to factors such as each party's contributions to the marital estate, which parent will receive child custody and what each party's financial circumstances will be at the conclusion of the divorce.
What determines whether alimony will be paid?
Spousal maintenance is not automatically awarded in any divorce, and there is no presumption that it will be paid to either the wife or the husband. Either spouse may request support payments, based on factors such as the duration of the marriage, each party's present and future earning capacity, career sacrifices made while acting as a homemaker, and how long it will take for the recipient to acquire the training and education to become financially self-sufficient.
How do we decide child custody?
In your uncontested divorce, the terms of your parenting plan will be decided by you and your spouse. The court will, however, not approve the plan unless it appears to serve the best interests of the children. The arrangements for child custody and visitation are influenced by questions about each parent's mental and physical health, each parent's lifestyle and ability to provide for the children's needs, and even the children's preferences if they are sufficiently mature to express these.

The long awaited opening of Hackney's new library is almost over. When The Dalston CLR James library opens its doors on 23 January, not only will it be the first new Council library to be built in Hackney in over 20 years, it will be one of the largest public libraries in the UK.
There will be over 32,000 items in the new library and younger readers will have over 9,500 books to choose from and over 17,000 for adults. People also have a choice of over 1600 free CDs and DVDs and over 200 talking books, study materials and online reference sources.
Because of a strong demand for study space and computers by library users, 20 dedicated study spaces have been created along with 2 meeting rooms.
In total there will be 57 computers to use for free. 10 in the children's section; 10 in the adults section; 22 in the study area; 3 in the Teen Zone, 2 in Quick Picks section and 10 laptops for use the meeting rooms. The library, like all other Hackney libraries has free wi-fi throughout.
By popular demand from Hackney library users, Dalston CLR library will have a cafe, which will be managed by local café owner Gurkan Bozdere, and is set to open shortly after the library.
Contrary to earlier reports the café will not be a Starbucks franchise, although it will serve Starbucks Coffee. Bozdere who with his father runs the Sömine Restaurant in Kingsland High Street, won the contract from Hackney Council last year. Speaking to a local blogger, Bozdere said he was not aware of local supplier Climpson and Sons who are based in Broadway Market, before he made his decision on the supplier.
Hackney Archives, is currently moving its collections, including over 20,000 historic photographs, original records of Hackney Council and other local organisations, and what are thought to be the oldest documents in the collections, a bundle of property records relating to land in different parts of London, dating back to 1356, to their new home. In the meantime the searchroom will open on 23 January, along with the rest of the library, to provide access to some of the local studies collections, including microfilm copies of the Hackney Gazette from 1869, maps, digitised copies of photographs and local history publications. The full archives service, providing access to the unique historical documents in the archives, will open soon after the new library.
The opening has also been long awaited by campaigners who fought hard to retain the name of the late CLR James, a Trinidadian historian, journalist and social theorist, whom the old library was named for.
The brand new Dalston C.L.R. James Library will open 9am to 8pm Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm on Saturday and 1pm-5pm on Sunday.
Library opening times are changing across the borough from 23 January at all Hackney Libraries. To find out more about Hackney Council's libraries and the new opening times visit www.hackney.gov.uk/libraries or contact 0208 356 3000.

Pradere shoulders heavy load for Snators
Sports | October 21, 2011
Darrell Moody
dmoody@nevadaappeal.com
Brock Pradere wears many hats for the Carson High football team.
Besides starting at wide receiver, he holds on extra points and field goals for Austin Pacheco, and because of injuries he's been pressed into heavy duty on defense as both a cornerback and safety.
That's a lot of time on the field, but Pradere likes being out there, and he's expected to put in yeoman-like work again when the Senators (5-1, 5-0) host Spanish Springs in a homecoming game tonight at 7:30.
Pradere is coming off his best game of the year. Last Friday against Damonte, he had four catches for 81 yards and a score, and he also contributed eight tackles on defense.
With Dylan Sawyers sidelined the past two weeks with a calf injury, Pradere has really stepped up his game. In the last two weeks, he has seven catches for 166 yards and two scores.
"We have a lot of guys who can catch the ball on this team, but Brock is the leader of the pack," Carson coach Blair Roman said. "Brock isn't fast. He just seems to glide out there. He's got such a long stride. His dad, Steve, was a heck of a distance runner. He has it in his genes.
"The biggest thing about Brock is that he runs such darn good routes. Brock is in a class with guys like Ean Witter, Gabe Pongasi and Chris Steele."
Two of his catches against Damonte figured in the scoring.
The first catch came early in the second quarter on a second-and-2 play from the Damonte 39. Carson QB Matt Nolan threw one to the yard markers on the left. The Damonte defender appeared to get his hands on the ball first, but Pradere grabbed it a split-second later, and under high school rules simultaneous catches go to the offense. Four plays later, Austin Pacheco kicked a field goal for a 6-0 lead.
Pradere came back on the next drive and caught a 9-yard pass in the right corner of the end zone, he had to do a great job of staying inbounds as Nolan threw the ball where only Pradere could grab it.
"On the simultaneous catch, the ball was a little underthrown," Pradere said. "I wanted to at least keep it out of the defender's hands, and we ended up both getting it. On the TD, we work on the sideline routes every day."
When summer practice started, Pradere was catching more balls from Chance Quilling than Nolan. Right before the season, the situation became reversed as Nolan won the starting job.
"It probably took about a week (to get used to Matt)," Pradere said. "It was a little frustrating at first making the adjustment. Matt has gotten so much better. I like catching passes from him now."
A year ago, Pradere was the back-up holder for Pacheco. He held for Pacheco when they played JV football.
"You have to have somebody back there that you trust and somebody that has good hands," Roman said. "It's a lot harder than it looks."
There are times when Pradere makes it look easy. On a PAT against Hug, the ball was snapped really high, yet Pradere was able to reach up and get it placed for Pacheco to convert the kick.
"I like doing it," Pradere said. "You can't get nervous when there are big kicks."
Pradere admitted being nervous before Pacheco's big 64-yarder to beat Manogue, but the nerves evaporated when he ran onto the field.
"I knew as soon as he kicked it, it was going to be long enough," Pradere said. "It was just a question of whether it was going to be good."
On defense, Pradere is seventh on the team with 24 tackles, an average of four per game. He's broken up four passes and recovered a couple of fumbles.
"I've played back there more than I expected (at the start of the season), and I think I've done a good job," Pradere said. "I like defense; I like being out there all the time. I like safety more than corner because you get to see the whole field."
"It's been a pleasant surprise how well he's played on defense," Roman said. "He's done a heck of a job."

City Is Backing Makeover for Decaying Brooklyn Waterfront
By DIANE CARDWELL MAY 3, 2005
City officials agreed yesterday to let developers turn the decaying north Brooklyn waterfront, with its relics of Brooklyn's industrial past, into a neighborhood of residential towers with a parklike esplanade along the East River.
The plan, which rivals the ambition and scope of the creation of Battery Park City, would rezone a 175-block area of Greenpoint and Williamsburg, two neighborhoods that have surged in popularity because of their proximity to Manhattan but whose development has been curtailed because much of the area is now restricted to industrial use.
The area has become perhaps the most emblematic of Brooklyn's resurgence over the last few decades, as young people seeking an alternative to Manhattan have flocked to its once desolate streets, remaking Williamsburg into a hub of nightlife, art galleries and restaurants just one subway stop away from Manhattan.
That has propelled the local housing market, and led to intense pressure to develop acres of abandoned or underutilized properties near the East River that boast stunning views of Manhattan.
The rezoning, which was approved unanimously by a key City Council committee, would transform the long-crumbling waterfront into a residential neighborhood complete with 40-story luxury apartment buildings, shops and manicured recreation areas. As envisioned by city planners, the rezoning would help realize decades-long efforts to capitalize on one of New York's most ignored assets, its miles of neglected waterfront, while also protecting a neighborhood that has long been considered a repository for unpopular projects like power plants, waste transfer stations and porn shops.
"This rezoning will ensure that the reuse of this priceless but long derelict waterfront will be for the purposes of housing and recreation and not for such inappropriate uses as waste transfer stations and power plants," Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg told reporters at a late afternoon news conference.
The plan, which is expected to be approved by the full City Council next week, imposes some novel requirements for developers seeking to build the housing. In order to build to the maximum height of roughly 30 or 40 stories, they must keep at least 20 percent of the homes affordable to low- and middle-income New Yorkers, making it among the most ambitious such programs in the nation, city officials say. And the developers must build the waterfront esplanade, which will eventually be turned over for management to the city's Parks Department.
The rezoning in north Brooklyn is coming together as the city moves aggressively to spruce up its aging waterfronts, many of which have been in decline for more than a generation as New York's ports lost their prominence. Earlier this year, the city approved the rezoning of a huge swath of the Far West Side of Manhattan for office space and housing and has finally begun putting in place a plan to support a mix of uses, including a cruise ship terminal, on the Red Hook waterfront in Brooklyn.
But the north Brooklyn plan, whose final version came after intense negotiations between the City Council and Bloomberg administration officials, could yield one of the most extreme transformations of a neighborhood in decades. Inland from the water, the plan seeks to preserve the low-rise scale of the areas, where four- and six-story apartment buildings predominate, as well as the mix of light industry and residences.
To that end, the plan will designate a 22-block area near the Bushwick Inlet, just beyond the East River waterfront, as an Industrial Business Zone, which brings with it special protections and benefits for businesses operating or moving there, and create a $4 million fund to preserve manufacturing jobs in the neighborhood.
The plan also creates 54 acres of parkland, including a 28-acre park with an Olympic-quality aquatic center on the river. The waterfront, though, will see the most striking change, and is the scene of the city's broadest test of inclusionary zoning, which allows developers to build larger buildings in exchange for setting aside some of the apartments as lower-cost units.
To take advantage of this bonus, developers on the waterfront must put aside 20 to 25 percent of their apartments for low- to moderate-income New Yorkers. In the city's calculations, for a family of four, low income is defined as earning up to $50,250 per year, and moderate income is defined as $50,250 to $78,000.
In exchange, they will be allowed to put up larger buildings, capped at roughly 30 or 40 stories depending on the location, and they will be eligible for a 25-year tax exemption. Those developers are also eligible for certain grants for the public esplanades they build.
Those who do not include affordable apartments in their developments would be ineligible for the tax exemption. The size of their buildings would also be smaller, limited to roughly 23 or 33 stories, officials said. In the inland areas, there is also an inclusionary program, but it is smaller in scale.
Council members involved in the negotiations said that their modifications to the administration's plan will result in the construction of more affordable homes overall, about 33 percent of the more than 10,500 apartments anticipated from the rezoning.
In addition, Mr. Bloomberg said, the five major developers who own 70 percent of the property within the rezoning area reached an agreement with the city's main building service union to pay union-scale wages.
"In 10 years, I can't imagine what Williamsburg-Greenpoint is going to look like," said Councilwoman Melinda Katz, Democrat of Queens, who as chairwoman of the Land Use Committee led negotiations with Bloomberg administration officials.
City Councilman David Yassky, Democrat of Brooklyn, who represents much of the area, echoed that sentiment. "This is truly a transformative plan for New York City's waterfront," he said. Many residents and community advocates, though, have been opposed to the changes envisioned by the city, and some had lobbied for a guarantee that 40 percent of the new housing would be directed to lower-income residents. But several housing advocates watching the voting at City Hall praised city officials for including more lower-cost housing and open space in the plan.
"The communities off Williamsburg and Greenpoint win," said Brad Lander, director of the Pratt Institute Center for Community and Environmental Development, "because today there is a guarantee of new and permanently affordable housing, instead of a virtual guarantee that new development would price residents out of their homes."

Purpose: To determine the fatigue resistance and failure mode of endodontically treated premolars using direct composite resin restorations. Materials and Methods: Eighty-four human premolars were divided into seven groups of 12, prepared as follows: Intact teeth used in Group 1 as control, the second group covers the endodontically treated teeth, restored with direct onlays using Z250 composite resin, the next two groups (i.e. 3,4) were similar to the second group, but subjected to 1 and 2 million fatigue load cycles, respectively. Groups 5, 6, 7 were similar to groups 2, 3, 4, however, in these groups Tetric Ceram was used as the restorative material. All specimens were loaded using a Universal Testing Machine until fracture occurred. One-way Anova andTukey's HSD tests were used to analyze the data of onlay groups. Results: All specimens withstood the masticating simulation. The mean fracture strength for Goups 1 to 7 was: 1276.92, 1373.47, 1269/70, 486/35, 484/12, 1130/49, 1113/79 Newton, respectively. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups in fracture strength and failure mode. Conclusions: No statistically significant differences in fracture strength were found between sound teeth and composite onlays that were subjected to 1 and 2 million fatigue load cycles.

Why Does Stepping On a LEGO Hurt So Bad? « Adafruit Industries – Makers, hackers, artists, designers and engineers!
There are some things you wouldn't wish upon even your worst enemy. Stepping on Legos being no such exception. The mind bending pain of a bare foot pressing down on a Lego is one of the worst known to humanity, but how does something so innocent looking create such an intense feeling? We're talking nociception today folks, and the chemistry of how these little two gram blocks pack enough punch to send you into orbit.

New York — Additional clarity regarding facilitation of New York's massive 2.4 GW offshore wind development goal emerged Monday when regulators discussed the procurement process with stakeholders at a technical conference in New York.
"Today is a really exciting day, offshore wind has been a long time coming for New York," Alicia Barton, CEO of the New York Energy Research and Development Authority, said during the webcast conference. "The details matter, we know that, and that's why we need your input and participation."
NYSERDA issued a detailed request for information Friday designed to help the agency craft a request for proposals for 800 MW of offshore wind capacity it plans to issue in the fourth quarter of 2018. The 800 MW would account for one-third of the state's 2.4-GW-by-2030 goal.
The agency clarified Monday that its bid evaluation will focus 70% on price, 20% on economic benefits and 10% on project viability. This represents a 5% increase in the project viability category compared with the offshore wind development order issued by the state's Public Service Commission July 12.
NYSERDA will purchase offshore renewable energy credits from eligible developers on behalf of the state's load-serving entities and then resell them to the LSEs for compliance with their obligations. Each LSE will be obligated to purchase the percentage of ORECs purchased by NYSERDA in a year that represents the portion of the electric energy load they serve.
Winning projects could receive a fixed as-bid OREC price throughout the 20- to 25-year contract lifetime, which would be "substantially identical" to the approach adopted by the PSC for Tier 1 of the Renewable Energy Standard, which requires LSEs to purchase renewable energy credits, according to the order.
The other half of the hybrid approach will be an Index OREC, or adjustable OREC prices that "net periodically against a reference price expressed in a market index," as described in the order. Each bidder will submit two bids, one fixed and one index. The bidder must be prepared to commit to either a fixed price or an adjustable price system if accepted, which will be determined by NYSERDA.
If NYSERDA awards a contract based on the index OREC strike price that was bid, each monthly period of the contract will have its own price calculated for the monthly period using reference energy and capacity prices.

Charlie Gard: U.S. Congress acts in compassion, British hospital asserts power
by Steve Berman
in Healthcare
The issue with Charlie Gard, a poor, blind and deaf 11-month old boy sentenced to a cold death by a government satraps, is relatively simple. As Ross Douthat tweeted, it's not complicated at all.
People keep telling me that the Charlie Gard case is extremely complicated but it does not seem complicated at all.
— Ross Douthat (@DouthatNYT) July 19, 2017
It, in fact, can be summed up in two documents. One is Great Ormond Street hospital's statement:
https://twitter.com/PetriOP/status/887612687643004929
"Charlie's parents fundamentally believe that they alone have the right to decide what treatment Charlie has and does not have."
They followed that statement of belief with their own, "different principles."
"A world where only parents speak and decide for children and where children have no separate identity or rights and no court to hear and protect them is far from the world in which GOSH treats its child patients."
The bombast and hypocrisy of this statement is so thick I can barely unpack it.
Of course, when children can express their own desires, or when parents harm children, it is the state's job to step in to correct anti-social or criminal behavior. But Charlie Gard's case has neither of those elements. Charlie doesn't need to be protected from his parents because they are trying to treat him, not kill him.
The state has decided that Charlie's life has no value, and the hospital is defending its right to make that decision as the state's moral agent, overriding the moral agency of parents.
This is the essential conflict here. Parents do have control over their children as moral actors, or they are simply agents of the state, acting in accordance with the government's wishes, within very established lanes. Making them agents of the state places the state above God as the ultimate moral lawgiver and transcendent conscience.
That is the world in which GOSH operates, and it's dysfunctional as hell.
The world where the U.S. Congress operates is a more compassionate one.
https://twitter.com/RepKevinYoder/status/887404289769058304
The House Appropriations Committee voted to add an amendment giving permanent legal U.S. residence to Charlie, so that he can seek treatment here. Treatment his parents desire for him, and can pay for out of their own pockets.
It's a small step, and it likely won't change anything. But nevertheless, it's meaningful in what it articulates about America versus Britain.
This isn't a matter like, say, Chelsea née Bradley Manning, who had the U.S. government pay for his sex change surgery. Charlie's parents don't want the British National Health Service to pay for anything. They just want the hospital to get its mitts off their son.
Charlie's case is also different from Justina Pelletier, a teenager whose parents disagreed with a few Boston doctors, leading to a 16-month ordeal that has been called "medical kidnapping," and them being accused of child neglect. It led one engineer "Marty G" Gottesfeld to organize an online attack against the hospital, earning him a cell in a maximum security federal prison awaiting a Jan. 2018 trial.
This isn't medical kidnapping, since the British government believes they own Charlie, and that his parents have no right to determine his care. The government makes a terrible parent, and a worse pastor.
I think most people understand at an instinctual level that when the government becomes god, the tyranny we will all experience, from cradle to grave, is worse than the harshest trials of free people living with their own right to fail. People are not serfs, and parents are not peons.
It's not very complicated at all.

Q: Linear Algebra - Vector Spaces of Vector Spaces If we have a Vector Space such as $\Bbb R$, we can make Vector Spaces out of it. For example, let $v_1,v_2,v_3\in \Bbb R$. We know that $(v_1,v_2,v_3)$ is a Vector Space - it is $\Bbb R_3$ - and its dimension is $3\times \dim {(\Bbb R)} = 3$. Thus we can see that $\Bbb R_3$ is composed of three elements of $\Bbb R$.
Any "Container Space" ($V_1$) is made of a Vector Space of elements whose elements are vectors in another Vector Space ($V_2$). Also, $(v_1,v_2,...,v_n) \oplus_1 (v'_1,v'_2,...,v'_n) = (v_1\oplus_2v'_1,v_2\oplus_2v'_2,...,v_n\oplus_2v'_n)$ and $c\odot_1(v_1,v_2,...) = (c\odot_2 v_1, c\odot_2 v_2...)$. In other words, Operators are passed to the component vectors.
In general, if we have a Vector Space $V$ and a Set $C$ made from vectors in $V$, is $C$ always a Vector Space? If so, will the dimension of $C$ always be $\dim{(P)}\times\dim{(V)}$ where $P$ is the space that forms elements in the way that the Set $C$ does?

I have found a few more Vector Spaces of the same type; if you want more examples, I can post them.

A: "Piano tiger", all of these things have normal names, which would be much more preferable to use than these new ones you've invented. (Actually, I'm not even sure two of those names are necessary to invent, unless your intention is to boggle the reader.)
Given a vector space $V$, you can always form the product $V\times V\times V$ (which you could choose to denote as $V^3$). This is the product space of three copies of the space $V$.
The dimension of the product is always the sum of the dimensions of the pieces of the product... so if $\dim(v)=n$, then $\dim(V^3)=3n$.
In general, $\dim(V^k)=k\cdot \dim(V)$.

Rather than saying "$C$ is a container space of $S$", it would be more conventional to say that $S$ is a subspace of $V$.

Your latest revision of your third paragraph can now be translated as: "If $P$ is a subspace of $V$, and $C$ is a set made from vectors of $V$, is $C$ a vector space?"
If $C$ is just some random subset of $V$, then no, it is unlikely that it is a vector space. For one thing, it might not have the zero vector.

Latest addition for latest edition.
The set you described forming from elements of $P$ is just another product space $P^n$. That $P$ is a subspace of $V$ does not change anything about forming the product... it certainly does not need a newly invented name. A $n\times n$ matrix with entries from $V$ is just a fancy way of writing a vector of length $n^2$. It is the same as $V^{n^2}$ except for the way you write it.

A: Wait a moment. I think there are some things confused here. Given $(v_1,v_2,v_3)$ for each $v_i \in \mathbb{R}$ this tuple isn't a vector space, rather it's the element of another vector space, namely $\mathbb{R}^3$. So, how do we construct new vector spaces from old ones? Well, there are two methods that I think are very interesting, and that probably will interest you.
The first method which is the simpler (and which is what you are looking for, looking at your question) is the so called Direct Sum. Given a family of vector spaces $\{V_i : i \in I\}$ we define the direct sum as the result of taking the cartesian product of the $V_i$ and adding the operations componentwise as defined in each $V_i$. In other words, elements of the direct sum are of the form $(v_1, \dots, v_n)$ with each $v_i \in V_i$ and we define the operations componentwise in the sense that we have:
$$(v_1,\dots, v_n)+(w_1,\dots,w_n)=(v_1+w_1,\dots,v_n+w_n)$$
$$a(v_1,\dots, v_n)=(av_1,\dots,av_n)$$
Note that the operation in the $i$-th component is the operation defined in the space $V_i$. This vector space is denoted by the symbol $V_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus V_n$ or simpler with the notation:
$$\bigoplus_{i\in I}V_i$$
It's fairly easy to prove that $\dim(\oplus_{i\in I}V_i) = \sum_{i \in I}\dim V_i$ (and I invite you to do that). This is the way $\mathbb{R}^3$ is construct in truth. You can see that with this definition we have:
$$\mathbb{R}^3 = \bigoplus_{i=1}^3\mathbb{R}$$
The other method is called the tensor product. It's construction is kind of sofisticated (and in truth it's motivation is only clear when we come to study multilinear constructions), but in the end it's simple when you understand it: it's meant to mimic usual products. This space is denoted by $V_1 \otimes \cdots \otimes V_n$ or simpler:
$$\bigotimes_{i \in I}V_i$$
And it satisfies $\dim(\otimes_{i\in I}V_i) = \prod_{i\in I}\dim V_i$ so in some intuitive sense the tensor product is bigger than the direct sum. To read more about the construction of the tensor product consult Kostrikin's Linear Algebra and Geometry chapter 4 about Multilinear Algebra.

Home / Fair Indigo Blog / With gratitude, Joy. Mom of the Joobles
With gratitude, Jody. Mom of the Joobles
Jody was the first person to encourage me to start Fair Indigo, which isn't a surprise to anyone who knew her. She encouraged everyone to go for their dream, however improbable it seemed to most. Other good friends, rightfully, advised caution – a big risk, securing investors, long hours. But Jody – "you have to do this!" Jody believed.
Stacy, our Style Manager was a student of Jody's at UW-Madison. She remembers her as a favorite teacher who sincerely believed in every student's ideas and that anything was possible. Her enthusiasm in the classroom – and for teaching in general – was contagious.
Our photography model, Rada, said it well on Jody's memorial page: "I will always remember you as the warm, happy soul that made everyone feel as the best version of themselves."
Jody saw the world as if through the eyes of an innocent child – a world full of good people, a million awesome ideas, and color. Jody loved color. Beamed about it. Where others saw a weed, Jody saw "the most incredible leafy green color I've ever seen."
Beauty on the outside you see. Beauty on the inside you feel. Whether it was Jody's warmth, her smile, her energy, her happiness, her generosity, her positive attitude – however you want to describe it – it flowed out of Jody and into the people around her. She absolutely had no ability to turn any of that beauty off. Her "on" switch was locked in.
-excerpt from "A letter from Gary," Jody's husband, at her memorial service.
Few things embody Jody's spirit like her Joobles. Look at their faces and you'll feel her innocence, her pure joy. And you'll probably smile, just like you'd do every time you were with her.
I have to give a shout here to Sergio because the Joobles would not exist without him. Sergio helped us coordinate with our Peruvian suppliers in the early days of Fair Indigo. On a trip Jody and I took in early 2008, our schedule was overbooked with urgent things to get done. He wanted to show us a hand knitting operation. "Maybe next time Sergio, we have too much to get done." But he persisted, every day. Finally on our last day, we gave in. "OK Sergio, 30 minutes!"
Within 5 minutes, I had to pick Jody's jaw up from the floor. She was 20 steps ahead of us gushing at the talent, hugging the knitters who didn't speak her language but could feel her love, cooing over the quality of the needlework, the color. "Oh my Gosh Rob, this is incredible!" She was like the proverbial kid in a candy store. I agreed and was equally moved by the couple – Javier and Elsa – who owned the place. They, like Jody, were the kind of people who made you instantly feel like an old family friend. And as I later learned, they were beyond just warm and friendly – they were absolutely saintly. But, at the time, we were not looking for a hand knit supplier. "Jody, come on, we're going to miss our flight."
When we got off the plane back in Madison, Jody had sketched her first Jooble. She already had him named – Jiffy the Giraffe – and had picked out yarn colors. She had a vision and knew exactly what she was doing.
The rest of the characters were inspired by Jody's love of kids and from suggestions by her boys, Avery and Cooper. All of us who worked with her knew the joy her boys brought her. It's a joy nearly all parents feel, but Jody expressed it in a very special way using her own childlike awe.
Jody fought cancer for nearly two years. Serious illness is so personal and there is no right or wrong way to handle it. To the outside world, Jody's unstoppable optimism never seemed to diminish. Adjectives here seem inadequate in trying to describe how much we were overcome by her heroic attitude through something so difficult.
Her last design she called Blink the Owl. On one of Jody's last days with us, her son Avery suggested to me, "maybe you could name a Jooble after my mom." What a perfect idea. Blink became Jody the Owl.
Jody never got to visit the school in Cajamarca, Peru that the Fair Indigo Foundation supports. One of my biggest regrets is that we didn't make time to visit it on one of her trips. "Next time." Be careful about using too many next times.
But last week, we did something pretty amazing. Jody's son Avery accompanied me on a trip to the school, where we distributed Joobles to the nearly fifty students. The kids had picked out their character a couple months ago, our knitters got busy making them, and last week we held what felt like a mini Oscars ceremony (but way less pretentious and way cuter) handing out the Joobles to each child. I read each student's name, they came running up to the "stage," and Avery handed out their Jooble – topped off with his signature high five.
It's a day I'll never forget, and a day where everyone could feel Jody there with us. Without a doubt, we could feel her there. Thank you Avery! It's time to plan that trip with your dad and Cooper.
Here are some pictures from the day, and the days leading up to it.
Let the fun begin! First up – Laura chose Racky the Raccoon.
Alex chose Roar the Lion.
Jody brought joy to the world every day of her too-short time on this earth. Avery extended that joy last week to these kids. With Cajamarca being Peru's poorest state, for many, this was their first toy. But the joy won't stop here. It's so Jody to figure out an ingenious way to spread her smiles to thousands more for many years to come. Well done, my friend. Thank you.

J.B. Won't Save You Milwaukee
Hey Milwaukee, do you remember J.B. Van Hollen's bold promises, when he was a candidate, about fighting crime? Apparently you can forget them all because he confessed in a recent story that he has no intention of launching the big plan that he advertised before taking office. Who could forget how aggressively he criticized his predecessor for not taking a leading role in combating violent crime in Milwaukee?
As a candidate Van Hollen advertised himself almost as a crime fighting super hero that would swoop into Milwaukee and save the day! How disappointing it must be for those that believed those promises?
As a candidate Van Hollen advertised himself almost as a crime fighting super hero that would swoop into Milwaukee and save the day! How disappointing it must be for those that believed those promises? Now they are forced to hear him admit what many on the left expressed long ago. His job is to support local law enforcement not replace them. In the story he admits that his campaign promises were not all that realistic, saying that the AG should focus on teaming up with city leaders. While he was extra critical of his predecessor, now Van Hollen says that "it is not up to me to determine what is in the best interest of Milwaukee." We will all find out if he is really serious about his new and improved plan for Milwaukee. As for the super hero that we saw on the TV commercials, apparently that J.B. has hung up his cape.
But never fear Milwaukee, J.B. has taken the time to institute a very strict dress code at the Department of Justice!

This user's case demonstrates how you can use multichannel campaign management to improve your customers' journeys.
A fictitious fashion retailer, Madison Island Fashion, (based on the Magento Demo Store) plans to open a new store in London. Marketing is tasked with drumming up interest for the opening event. The marketing team plans an automated multichannel campaign that should trigger certain activities based on customer behaviour along their journey.
The new store opening campaign contains four main campaign steps, each including different channel communications. Firstly, Madison Island plans a Facebook awareness campaign for the new store, followed by a postcard mailing to customers and prospects living in the catchment area with an introductory money-off voucher. On the day of the store opening, visitors who come into the store should be welcomed by a triggered mobile push notification. Those that don't have the time to visit on the day should receive an email with an offer and a prize draw. Finally, a follow-up step must take place, based on a three way behavioural split resulting in three tailored messages.
In the campaign management tool, the complete marketing process "All-in-one" looks as follows with 4 distinct steps: 1) Awareness 2) Pre-Store opening 3) Store opening 4) Post-opening follow-up.
In the first step Madison Island plans a Facebook post that is designed to create awareness of the new store opening and to stimulate engagement. The following screenshot shows the creation and delivery step in the campaign, followed by a three-way split based on social responses: 'Like', 'Shared' and 'Commented' (useful for further Facebook activities).
Triggered via the time-based scheduler, the Facebook post appears within seconds on Madison's Facebook page. See the "just now" label appearing in the post.
In the second step, the fashion retailer analyses its customer and prospect database. Based on a 20 mile proximity to the new store location, they select the right audience for a postcard mailing with an introductory discount voucher. In order to reduce mailing costs, there must be a minimum of 20 people in a pool before the agency creates and sends the mailing. This selection process can run on a regular basis (e.g. daily) in the run up to the store opening date.
The people that are selected receive the postcard mailing with a personalised link to a landing page to claim their introductory discount voucher. The landing page is pre-filled with their details. The campaign tool creates a shortened personalised link by calling an external webservice with a longer link name. Via a so-called 'communication key' (created with each communication output from the campaign) it is possible to link responders to specific communications, here for example, it is used to link downloadable voucher codes to individuals.
The big day has finally arrived and Madison Island opens its doors for the first time at the new location.
Via iBeacons, customers who enter the store (and have downloaded the store app in advance) receive a personalised mobile push notification on their smartphones, welcoming them to the store. This message is triggered by the interaction of the iBeacon and the smartphone using the so-called "Live Data" (i.e. near real-time) capability in the campaign tool. Customers and prospects who didn't have the time to visit the store on the opening date receive an email with an introductory offer for the online store. Here you see the delivery step that splits people into two groups, in-store (receive mobile push notifications) and the rest (receive emails).
Many visitors make it to Madison's new store opening event. When a customer enters the store, the campaign tool is informed that a registered person is nearby. This person receives the notification on their mobile phone (see below). The big advantage here is that the message can be tailored to the individual based on any relevant information stored about them on the CRM system. Personal preferences, size and store card information can be integrated in the notification message.
The campaign also offers a sub-segment of the initial target audience the opportunity to participate in a prize-draw. With A/B tests and control groups, it is possible to measure the effectiveness of the offers and to measure the overall success of the campaign (perhaps useful for future store-openings that Madison plans).
The new store opening was a great success. In order to keep up the dialogue with the target audience, the marketing team plans a personalised follow-up message. This takes the form of a three-way behavioural split. Customers who bought something receive an SMS message: 'A special thank you is on its way'. Those that clicked on the email, went to the online store but abandoned their shopping cart receive a win-back email (e.g. with an incentivised coupon). People who haven't responded or interacted within a two day timeframe also receive an email with a reminder message and incentivised offer.
Naturally it is critical to measure the success of the campaign! The Madison Island marketing team look with satisfaction at the results of the store opening campaign. Based on a simple (Open Source) dashboard, one can see all the KPIs at a glance. This dashboard was created from data delivered via the FastStats API.
If other 3rd party tools are integrated with the campaign system e.g. web-tracking tools, further information can be used to optimise the campaign and for measurement purposes (e.g. using the communication key to track who visited your online store as a direct result of an email received).
Via intelligent and event-triggered multichannel communication along the entire customer journey, you can achieve a consistent brand experience for your customers.
Customers who share data with you expect in exchange that you consider their individual needs. A personalised salutation isn't enough anymore!
Use digital channels such as Facebook or mobile push notifications in order to reach customers via new ways.

The student crew worked alongside the artists and campus production services to coordinate the stage setup.
"It was a massive effort," said Mike Forbes, "but it looked phenomenal!"

Forbes, the EMC assistant director of technologies, leads the Media Technology class that provides the video wall for events all over campus. The crew handles the content and video elements for each of the acts, then loads up and stores the equipment after the concert.
The $1 million LED video wall is on loan to the university from VER (Video Equipment Rentals) Nashville, a leading national provider of video wall installations for the concert industry. Students who are learning this technology are being hired directly by the companies in Nashville that are in need of people who know LED technology.

"We've been extremely fortunate to have such a wonderful relationship with companies and vendors in the Nashville area, such as VER, that have helped make this possible," Forbes said.
The concert kicked off at 8 p.m. and was free for MTSU students, faculty and alumni. Ludacris, Grammy Award-winning rapper, known for the hits "Southern Hospitality" and "Rollout," is also a regular in the Fast and Furious franchise.

Sick Northolt imam sexually abused two young girls while teaching them the Quran
The victims were aged between nine and 11 when the sex attacks took place

Justice caught up with Pirzada thanks to the bravery of his two victims
A Northolt imam carried out "horrendous" sex attacks on two young girls he was appointed teach the Quran to.
Hafiz Azizur Rehman Pirzada, from Laughton Road, Northolt, was found guilty of eight counts of sexual assault on a female under 13, and two counts of causing a child to engage in sexual activity at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Tuesday (October 2).
He carried out the sickening sex attacks on two girls between 2007 and 2009. They were aged between nine and 11 when the abuse took place.
The 76-year-old had been appointed to teach them the Quran.
Both of the victims came forward to speak to police in July 2015.
Pirzada was arrested at his home address on July 28, 2016. He was then charged with the 10 offences in March 2018.

Detective Sergeant Tony Killeen from the Child Abuse and Sexual Offences Team said: "This is a case stemming back ten years, but despite the length of time since the incidents Pirzada has been convicted of his crimes.
"The victims have shown a great degree of courage, persistence and determination in securing the conviction, having persevered with the allegation and supporting the police investigation.
"The victims have had to live with this trauma and the absolutely horrendous abuse they endured for the years they were under the control of Pirzada and will have to live with these memories for the rest of their lives.
"Pirzada used his level of trust as a religious leader to assault the girls. I would urge anyone who has been a victim of Pirzada to contact police - specially trained officers are there to support you."

Pirzada will be sentenced at the same court on Monday, November 19.

Survivorship and productivity of invasive plant species in response to different forest management regimes across regional and local environmental gradients .
Oak regeneration in Eastern U.S. forests is associated with disturbances, such as fire and shelterwood harvests, which increase the amount of light reaching the forest floor. In contrast, diameter-limit cutting (DLC; removal of the largest, most merchantable trees) is primarily used by private land owners. Forest canopy openings by any of these methods may result in invasion by exotic plant species. Invasive plant establishment is also dependent on available resources, with mesic and nutrient-rich sites often more prone to invasion than more xeric, less fertile, sites. Garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata, GM), Japanese stiltgrass (Microstegium vimineum, JSG), and tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima, TOH) survivorship and productivity were compared. Fifty-six sites were selected from two regions (Allegheny Plateau (AP) and Ridge and Valley (RV) Provinces), two topography-types (north-northeastern-east (NE), and south-southwestern-west (SW) slopes), and five management regimes (control, single burn, repeat burn, shelterwood, and DLC) in OH, WV, and VA. In early spring 2011, GM was planted as seedlings (cotyledons). JSG and TOH were transplanted with their first leaves, in late spring. After three months, shoot biomass was determined for all species and root biomass was determined for TOH. Light and soil temperature were measured for each site. All three species had more biomass in the shelterwoods. Productivity decreased in the following order: DLCs, repeat burns, single burns, and controls, except for GM, in which the burns had greater productivity than the DLCs and controls. JSG was more productive in the RV, while GM was more productive on NE slopes. TOH's shoot biomass did not differ among region or slope, but its root biomass was greater in the RV. GM survival was greater in the AP and in the burns, but survival did not differ among treatment, region, or topography for TOH or JSG. Shelterwoods had the highest light and soil temperature, followed by the DLCs, two burns, and controls. The RV and SW slopes had higher light and soil temperature than the AP and NE slopes, respectively.Broader Impacts:Invasive plant response varied among the species, but the most disturbed treatment (shelterwood) showed the greatest productivity for all three species. A wet spring/summer may explain the high productivity of JSG and TOH in the RV. No difference in survival of JSG and TOH suggests young plants can become established (though not prosper) under variable conditions. GM's response indicates that younger developmental stages may be more sensitive to existing conditions.
