Our Way Ahead – How the NHSBSA is moving towards a hybrid working model
The global coronavirus pandemic has meant changes for all of us, particularly in terms of how we work. We know we've needed to adapt and move into a new world, so we've developed an approach with our people to look at how we work into the future and explore the potential for a hybrid working model.
Our Chief Executive Michael Brodie and Programme Lead Anna Butterfield share our journey so far:
Introduction from Michael Brodie, Chief Executive
The global pandemic has caused the greatest level of disruption in our lifetimes. It has had an impact on everything. And that includes our working lives. Despite all its horrors, COVID-19 has provided us with an opportunity to shake up our thinking of how we want to experience 'work' in a post-pandemic world.
Over the last eighteen months, we have variously been working at home, working from home, and often it has felt like living at work. And it's been different for different colleagues, as many have had no choice but to continue to attend our workplaces due to the nature of their work. It has challenged us to think again about how we attract, recruit, and retain the very brightest talent, meeting their needs for flexibility but also social inclusion and reflecting on the innovation that collaborating together in-person best delivers.
In our latest blog, Anna Butterfield, Programme Lead for 'Our Way Ahead', reveals how we've explored the potential for a hybrid working model for the future.
Shaking up our everyday thinking
Back in January, I was asked to consider the future ways of working once lockdown restrictions were eased. A small programme team was established, and we started our thinking by considering our organisational purpose and what it means to be a Catalyst for Better Health. This became our anchor point: why we do what we do and in turn shaped the approach to the programme. Agreeing with the Leadership Team that the purpose of the programme was to 'shake up' the everyday thinking about how, when, and where we do our great work.
The 'Our Way Ahead' programme launched in early February ensuring that all colleagues could be involved in finding solutions to our challenge ahead.
Our first action was to listen to our people. We ran a series of all-colleague listening sessions where over 500 people attended (including representation from all our Lived Experience Networks). We also ran a survey that 480 colleagues completed. Next, we held a series of sessions for managers where over 150 managers shared openly their challenges of leading in a crisis and their needs for future working. Finally, we worked with an independent researcher to facilitate 121 interviews with 30 colleagues to truly understand the lived experiences of as many colleagues as possible, especially those colleagues who were at risk of being marginalised because of COVID-19; including working parents and carers, maternity and paternity leave colleagues, under 25s and over 60s.
From the colleagues surveyed we learned that:
40% of our colleagues want 100% remote working
4% want to be back in the office five days per week
56% want a flexible working model
Positive experiences included – colleagues have valued the flexibility and autonomy, felt supported, trusted, and feel more productive
Negative experiences included – colleagues have felt isolated, lonely, and missed the ability to socialise
Additionally, analysis carried out by our environment team saw a significant positive impact on our business emissions over the last year
This provided us with a sound evidence base to make an informed decision to move to a hybrid way of working, that builds on the positive experiences and designs out the negatives.
Our plan was to be everywhere, so even with the vast majority of people working from home we ensured our communications, updates, and programme opportunities could be accessed by anyone. We created ongoing communications including attendance at the Leadership Team meetings, a bespoke programme Yammer channel, monthly blogs, key progress updates to our senior leadership community, live all colleague Q&As, and continued listening to the organisational mood.
Impact on the business and wider research
Now we understood the impact the pandemic was having on our people, we needed to understand the impact it had had on the business.
We developed a hypothesis to enable us to test our assumptions against and explore the possibility of hybrid working in greater detail:
"By changing our ways of working and our supporting policies/systems/practices we can create flexible working with no degradation to organisational productivity or effectiveness."
To test the hypothesis, three distinct communities were established.
The first to be created was the NHSBSA Think Tank - a community of colleagues who bring fresh ideas into the organisation and ensure knowledge gets into the hands of those who need to hear it. Initially, the Think Tank developed a wide range of insights exploring what it means to be a hybrid organisation. It then attempted to answer more specific questions, such as how we ensure people are at their best when working from home and how to create a fully connected inclusive environment.
The evidence generated by the Think Tank informed our second community of practice, our Clusters. The Clusters consist of six groups made up of colleagues from across the business focussing on:
The purpose of the Clusters was to determine the requirements that will enable the NHSBSA to become a hybrid organisation. They helped us identify the habits that serve us well and change the ones that don't. The groups worked through the following questions:
What's good about here?
What's not serving us well?
What can we develop further?
Finally, the third community was led by our Business Analysts and the purpose was to thoroughly work through what a hybrid working model means in practice across each of the NHSBSA's business areas. We worked with leaders from each directorate to test what tasks and roles can work in a more flexible way, assessing the impact on productivity and effectiveness. Additionally, we identified what key activities were best carried out remotely, on location or a combination of the two.
We found that:
Majority of all processes/activities can be carried out remotely
KPIs were being met
Managers have successfully adapted to new ways of working however further development would be beneficial for a hybrid model
Opportunities for national recruitment
Further support for developing colleagues in a hybrid model is needed
For roles that cannot be carried out flexibly, there is a need to ensure we create a great working environment to ensure inclusivity
And our estates will require some redesign to ensure that people use our office space for connections, collaboration and learning….as well as having effective workstations
Using the research, our Leadership Team has now agreed we will move the business to a hybrid model and the programme team are now in the process of making that happen.
From October all managers have been asked to start having conversations with their team members to work through their new ways of working. We'll be using the next few months to test and refine until we get the right balance and work through what being a hybrid business means for us. Finally, phase 2 of the programme will start in the Autumn, giving deeper focus to culture, behaviours, and what matters to us in a post-pandemic world.
This has been our experience to date, and we'd love to hear how others are approaching this new world of work.


Scott Coker has made several shrewd moves since taking over as president of Bellator MMA last year. From booking grudge matches pitting Tito Ortiz against Stephan Bonnar and Ken Shamrock against Kimbo Slice, to partnering with GLORY kickboxing to present a joint fight card in September, Coker brought Bellator back into the national MMA discussion. He also made another shrewd move with Bellator's most recent fight card.
Bellator 140 featured almost exclusively welterweight fighters, including two men competing for the welterweight title. Not only was a new champion crowned when Andrey Koreshkov topped Douglas Lima, but Bellator also showcased two welterweights who are ready to become the next big stars in MMA and a well-known welterweight who emphatically announced his return.
Michael "Venom" Page has all the tools to be a big star. He has a brash personality and loads of charisma inside and outside the cage. Oh yeah, the guy can fight too. He's undefeated and knocked Rudy Bears (granted, he of the 16-15 career record) cold in the first round at Bellator 140. Regardless of whether he's facing a fighter with the less-than-impressive record of Bears, Page continues to get better with each fight. It's only a matter of time until he joins fighters like Will Brooks, Joe Warren and Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal as one of the faces of Bellator.
Brennan Ward is another young fighter who is staking his claim as the future of Bellator. Ward, like Page, has a big personality to back up his skills. He also scored a first-round knockout win at Bellator 140 when he stopped Roger Carroll. However, Ward still needs more seasoning before he can be tabbed as the next big thing. Formerly a middleweight, Ward was submitted by then-champion Alexander Shlemenko last year and started his welterweight career with a 21-second knockout loss to Tamdan McCrory.
While Page and Ward are staking their claim as Bellator's next big stars, a familiar face is reacquainting himself with MMA fans.
Paul Daley, the former UFC fighter most (in)famous for punching Josh Koscheck after the bell in their fight in 2010 and receiving his release from the UFC, scored his second consecutive Bellator win by knocking out Dennis Olson in the second round.
As fate would have it, Koscheck recently signed with Bellator. A rematch between the two is looking increasingly likely, as it fits right in Coker's wheelhouse of booking grudge matches between longtime rivals. Ortiz/Bonnar and especially Kimbo/Shamrock did huge ratings for Bellator. While Daley/Koscheck 2 is not on the same level in terms of sexiness, it would likely continue Bellator's run of respectable to very good ratings.
The young guns, Page and Ward, would get to test themselves against proven veterans. If Daley and Koscheck show the two that it's not quite their time yet, then Bellator gets a notable rematch between two rivals — with a title shot on the line to boot.
Coker has loved to put on "big tent" events since taking over Bellator. You couldn't get a much bigger tent than four of the biggest personalities in the same weight class squaring off for a chance at the belt.

Q: hide/show div based on url doesn't work at the first load of the multi html pages I already check here on stackoverlow and I didn't find what I need.
I'm trying to hide and show some DIV based on the #url and It's almost done but the first time you enter in that html page (it's a three different page website) the function doesn't work.
here the function I use:
/***************
HIDE BANDS DEPENDING ON THE URL
***************/

// Bind the event.
window.onhashchange = updatebands;

function updatebands() {

if (location.href.match(/projectos.html#bandOne/)){
  $('#bandOne').css("display", "block");
  $('#bandTwo').css("display", "none");
  $('#bandThree').css("display", "none");
}
if (location.href.match(/projectos.html#bandTwo/)){
  $('#bandOne').css("display", "none");
  $('#bandTwo').css("display", "block");
  $('#bandThree').css("display", "none");
}
if (location.href.match(/projectos.html#bandThree/)){
  $('#bandOne').css("display", "none");
  $('#bandTwo').css("display", "none");
  $('#bandThree').css("display", "block");
}
};

I've tried also to complement the CSS file with the code below but when enter for the first time I have the same problem (this time it all hides instead of all shown)
.section {
  display: none;
}

I think it's because I load the html and the function doesn't work, how can I solve this problem?
Here my repo with the live page link written in it:
https://github.com/sebalaini/costanzo

A: When you enter the page for the first time the window.onhashchange isn't getting triggered, so nothing there will run.
If you want - you can also use the window.onload function (or better use the window.addEventListener to make sure you don't override anything and no script will override your function):
window.addEventListener("load", function(event) {
    updatebands()
});

Note that you still need to keep the hashchange event:
window.addEventListener("hashchange", function(event) {
    updatebands()
});

A: Using only CSS :target pseudo-class:

p{ display:none; } /*- hide all paragraphs initially */
:target{ display:block; } /* only shows the one which the "hash" is pointing at */

Show part 1

Show part 2

Show part 3

Part 1

Part 2 is this one

This is part 3

when the URL contains the hash part which matches an id id a paragraph, only that paragraph will be displayed. no javascript used.

Inuktitut is an Indigenous language in North America, spoken in the Canadian Arctic. The 2016 census reported 39,770 speakers, of which 65 per cent lived in Nunavut and 30.8 per cent in Quebec. Inuktitut is part of a larger Inuit language family, stretching from Alaska to Greenland. Inuktitut uses a writing system called syllabics, created originally for the Cree language, which represent combinations of consonants and vowels. The language is also written in the Roman alphabet, and this is the exclusive writing system used in Labrador and parts of Western Nunavut. Inuktitut is a polysynthetic language, meaning that words tend to be longer and structurally more complex than their English or French counterparts. (See also Indigenous Languages in Canada.)
The Inuit Language
Non-Inuit typically refer to the language as Inuktitut; however, the speakers themselves have different names for the language in their own dialects. For instance, it is called Inuttitut in Nunavik (Northern Quebec), Inuttut in Nunatsiavut (Northern Labrador) and Inuktitut in much of Nunavut.
A related issue is that Inuktitut is part of a dialect continuum — a series of dialects that change gradually over a geographical area in which speakers of neighbouring dialects can understand each other, but those further apart may not be able to. This continuum stretches across the North American Arctic, including Inupiaq in Alaska, Western Canadian Inuit in the Northwest Territories, Eastern Canadian Inuit in Nunavut, Quebec and Nunatsiavut, as well Greenlandic dialects. It is for this reason that specialists refer to this entire continuum as the Inuit language, or simply Inuit, and reserve the label "Inuktitut" for the Eastern Canadian dialect group. In the 2016 census, 42,065 people reported speaking an Inuit language. (See also Indigenous Languages in Canada.)

Like most Indigenous languages in the Americas, Inuktitut did not have a writing system before contact with Europeans. This is not unusual because writing is a relatively recent human invention and human languages existed without writing for tens of thousands of years.(See also Oral History and Indigenous Oral Histories and Primary Sources.)
Syllabics
In Nunavik and most of Nunavut, Inuktitut is typically written in syllabics — a writing system originally created for the Cree in 1840s by James Evans, a missionary in Manitoba.(See also Cree Language.) This system was later adapted to Inuktitut, and spread by missionaries and Inuit themselves in what is now Nunavut and Nunavik.
Like the Cree syllabary, Inuktitut syllabics use a set of symbols to indicate combinations of consonants and vowels. For instance, the single symbol ᐸ represents the sounds that would be written with the two letters pa in the Roman alphabet. The system works as follows: the shape of each symbol indicates a consonant, or lack thereof, while the orientation of the symbol indicates the vowels a, i or u. Rotating or flipping a symbol changes the vowel. For instance, the syllabic ᑎ represents the sounds ti, while ᑐ represents tu and ᑕ represents ta.
One symbol is used to indicate a vowel that is not directly preceded by a consonant, such as at the beginning of a word or after another vowel. Smaller superscript versions of the symbols are used to indicate a single consonant not followed by a vowel, such as at the end of a word or before another consonant. The language distinguishes between short and long vowels. For instance, inuk means "person," while inuuk means "two people." To indicate that a vowel is long, a dot is placed above the corresponding syllabic. Below are two examples of the system in use.
i-nu-k-ti-tu-t
ᑰᒃkuu-k
One difference unique to the version of the system used in Nunavik (Quebec) is the use of a fourth orientation of symbols to indicate the combination of the vowels ai, which would be written with an extra vowel symbol in Nunavut. As such, the Nunavik syllabary is typically presented with an additional column. The following table summarizes both the Nunavut and Nunavik versions of the system.

Dialect-Specific Syllabics
To accommodate sounds that are only present in some dialects, additional symbols such as ᖨ for z and ᕵ for h are used, as summarized below. The symbols ᕼ and b for h and b, respectively, are also used at times in borrowed words, such as Hᐋᑭᖅ/"hockey" but, unlike other symbols, they are not rotated and the following vowel is written with a separate symbol.

Inuktitut also has an orthography (a spelling system) based on the Roman alphabet, with some variation in the conventions used for different dialects. Again, differences between dialects are accommodated using additional letters. Versions of the Roman system are used in Western Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and in Labrador. Greenlandic dialects, also part of the Inuit dialect continuum, use the Roman alphabet as well.
The current Roman version of the writing system has already undergone standardization from an earlier version, making it more systematic and reflective of the pronunciation of the language.
Proposed Standardization
Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK), the national organization representing Inuit in Canada, has recommended the adoption of Roman orthography as the standard writing system in schools to facilitate language learning, with syllabics being introduced in later grades. In February 2016, translators and interpreters attending the Apqutauvugut Interpreter/Translator Conference in Iqaluit, Nunavut, voted in favour of such a reform. It remains to be seen whether governments and communities will accept these recommendations.
While governmental organizations have adopted standard sets of terminology for use in translations and public documents, no single variety of the language has been adopted as a standard nor is there a single standard for spelling that applies across all dialects. To a large degree, variation in spelling is due to dialects having slightly different inventories of sounds and different rules for combining them. For instance, while pronounced and written as Inuktitut in Nunavut, the same word takes the form Inuttitut in Nunavik.
Unlike English or French, for which standard spellings of each word exist, Inuktitut speakers are in large part guided by their own pronunciations of words. Another reason for variation lies in the fact that Inuktitut is a polysynthetic language — having highly complex words. The existence of such complexity means no dictionary could conceivably list all the possible words of Inuktitut, posing a challenge for the type of standardization often found in European languages.
Speaking the Language
Inuktitut, or Eastern Canadian Inuktitut, is considered a dialect group within the Inuit language. Subdialects of Inuktitut include North and South Baffin, Labrador, Nunavik, Aivilik, Kivalliq and Natsilingmiutut. The other dialect group in Canada, Western Canadian Inuktun, includes Inuinnaqtun, Siglitun and Uummarmiutun, and is spoken in Western Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. Alaskan Inupiaq to the west and Greenlandic to the east also belong to the Inuit language.
Inuktitut subdialects vary somewhat in their sound inventories. For instance, some have a voiceless l sound (made without vibrating the vocal cords), while others have merged this sound with l, s or t. They also vary in terms of how sounds can combine. Overall, Western dialects tend to preserve more combinations, such as gl or kt, while Eastern dialects will often transform these combinations into geminates (a doubled sound pronounced longer), such as ll or tt.
Dialects also vary in vocabulary, using different words, and in the meanings assigned to morphemes, the building blocks of words. For example, the word for "now" in much of Nunavut is maanna, while in Nunavik it is taga-taga.
These differences in sound systems and vocabulary constitute the main barrier to communication between speakers of different dialects. While there are also syntactic (sentence structure) differences between dialects, they are not as pronounced.
Inuktitut has features that distinguish it from other languages, including its sound system, the complexity of Inuktitut words and its grammar.
Inuktitut has a relatively small inventory of sounds, consisting of three vowels and around 14 consonants, depending on the dialect. By comparison, the inventory of sounds in Canadian English includes 24 consonants and 10 simple vowels.
Polysynthesis
Inuktitut is a polysynthetic language, meaning that words exhibit a higher degree of complexity than what is typically found in most languages. This complexity manifests itself in a variety of ways. For instance, some verbs combine with their objects to form a single word. This process is called noun incorporation, as illustrated in the following example where the verb -liuq- "make" must attach to its object, iglu "house."
iglu-liuq-tunga
house-make-declarative.1sg
(Note: The abbreviation 1sg means "first person singular," i.e., I, the speaker).
"I'm building a house."
Another type of incorporating verbs needs to attach to yet another verb to form a word. Furthermore, a number of elements that serve the function of adjectives and adverbs can also appear inside larger words. Finally, while in a language like English, a number of grammatical markers exist as small words, such as articles, auxiliaries, prepositions and the like, in Inuktitut virtually all such grammatical machinery occurs within larger words. The end result is that the language has rather long words, often having structures similar to clauses in other languages, as in the following example from linguist Louis-Jacques Dorais, Illujjjuaraalumuulaursimannginamalittauq (meaning, "but also, because I never went to the really big house").
Ergativity
Another notable feature of Inuktitut is the way it marks the participants in a sentence. In a language like English, such marking is only found in pronouns, such as they versus them, or in the difference between who and whom. In English, subjects receive the nominative case (subject form) regardless of whether or not there is an object, while the accusative case (object form) only occurs on objects.
They saw them.
Transitive sentence (with an object)
Intransitive sentence (without an object)
Such a system is called a nominative-accusative system. Inuktitut, on the other hand, has what is called an ergative-absolutive system. This means that, instead of using the same form for subjects, regardless of whether or not the clause has an object, the Inuktitut system reserves one form only for subjects of transitive clause. For instance, in the following examples, anguti "man" takes the ending up only when the sentence also has an object.
Anguti-up taku-jaa nanuq.
man-ergative see-3sg.3sg polar.bear
(Note: The abbreviation 3sg means "third person singular," much like the s in English arrives.)
"The man saw the polar bear."
Anguti ani-juq.
man leave-3sg
"The man left."
This phenomenon of treating transitive and intransitive subjects differently is called ergativity.
In 2019, Inuktitut magazine celebrated its 60th anniversary. The magazine, published by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK), was launched in 1959 to showcase Inuit people, culture, history, and language. It is now published in Inuktitut (including Inuktitut syllabics), Inuinnaqtun, French, and English and is delivered free of charge to Inuit households across Canada.
Current State of the Language
Inuktitut has official status in Nunavut, alongside English and French. In the Northwest Territories, both Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtun (a related group of dialects) are included among other "Official Aboriginal languages." In Nunavik, Inuktitut has a recognized status in education as part of the James Bay and Northern Québec Agreement, as well as the Charter of the French Language. It is also an official language of the Government of Nunatsiavut in Labrador.
In the 2016 census, 36,015 people identified Inuktitut as their mother tongue, with the majority of speakers residing in Nunavut (22,070) and Quebec (11,895). Statistics Canada reported 39,770 speakers overall (including those with knowledge of the language, those who speak the language at home and those whose first language was Inuktitut), making Inuktitut the second most spoken Indigenous language in Canada. (The Cree language was the first.)
To address the negative effects of decades of government and institutional policies that sought to assimilate Inuit and suppress the transmission of their language, many programs and initiatives are underway to revitalize or maintain the language in Inuit communities. In Nunavut, most communities offer the first few years of school in Inuktitut or Inuinnaqtun. Nunavik's Kativik School Board places an emphasis on Inuktitut (or Inuttitut), with this being the language of instruction from kindergarten to grade 3. In the area of higher education, Nunavut Arctic College has published several dictionaries, language learning materials, and more technical documents on terminology, translation, and grammar.
Other initiatives are also being undertaken by the Avataq Cultural Institute in Nunavik and the Torngâsok Cultural Centre in Nunatsiavut. In the private sector, the Pirurvik Centre has created a language learning website, Tusaalanga, an accompanying smartphone app, an Inuktitut phrasebook, and other language teaching materials. The Iqaluit-based publishing company Inhabit Media has published many books in Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtun for both children and adults.

JUnit 5 has just been released. This is the first major release since JUnit 4, which was released in 2006. According to the user guide, one of the major goals of JUnit 5 is to make future enhancements and evolution of JUnit easier.
With JUnit 4 a lot of stuff that was originally added as an internal construct only got used by external extension writers and tool builders. That made changing JUnit 4 especially difficult and sometimes impossible.
A set of API for writing tests.
JUnit platform launcher API that can be used by tool builders to discover, filter, and execute tests.
JUnit 5 is a collection of three sub-projects: JUnit Jupiter, JUnit Platform and JUnit Vintage (for backwards compatibility).
JUnit Jupiter provides the API for writing tests and extensions. It consists of some familiar annotations from JUnit 4 such as @Test, and some new annotations such as @DisplayName. Some annotations are renamed.
Consult the user guide for a complete list of annotations available in JUnit 5.
JUnit 5 includes new assertions such as assertAll that work well with Java 8 lambdas.
JUnit 5 also introduces the concept of nested tests, which allows the developer to group related tests.
The extension model of JUnit 5 replaces Runner, @Rule, and @ClassRule extension points in JUnit 4 with a single Extension API. Extensions can be registered explicitly by using @ExtendWith or automatically via Java's ServiceLoader mechanism.
JUnit Platform provides the foundation for discovering, filtering, and executing tests.
One of the prominent goals of JUnit 5 is to make the interface between JUnit and its programmatic clients – build tools and IDEs – more powerful and stable. The purpose is to decouple the internals of discovering and executing tests from all the filtering and configuration that's necessary from the outside.
This goal is met by JUnit's Launcher API, which is typically used by IDEs and build tools for configuring and launching test plans. A third-party test library can also plug into JUnit Platform's launching infrastructure by providing a custom TestEngine.
ConsoleLauncher, a command-line Java application lets the developer launch the JUnit Platform from the console.
JUnit Vintage is a test engine that allows a developer to run tests written in JUnit 3 or JUnit 4, on the new platform. A developer must include junit-vintage-engine in the test runtime path, in which case the legacy tests will automatically be picked up by the JUnit Platform launcher.
This release requires Java 8 (or higher) at runtime, underlining the trend where modern versions of major libraries now consider Java 8 a minimum version requirement.
JUnit 5 is one of the first projects to be released under EPL v2.0 license.

(UnitedVoice.com) – In June 1950, North Korea attacked South Korea and the Korean War began. Today, 71 years later, it has still not officially ended, which often leaves the people on the peninsula on edge. Recent actions demonstrated why people worry the war will flare up again.
On Tuesday, September 28, North Korea test-fired a short-range missile from the northern province of Jagang. President Joe Biden's administration condemned the launch, calling it a "violation of multiple UN Security Council Resolutions."
According to Fox News journalist Lucas Tomlinson, the missile launched while Pyongyang's United Nations Ambassador Kim Song spoke at the UN General Assembly in New York, saying, "Nobody can deny the right to self-defense" to his autocratic nation. He said the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) has just as much right as the US to "develop, test, manufacture and possess" weapons.
During speech: North Korea fires ballistic missile into Sea of Japan https://t.co/XkrJKYzENz
— Lucas Tomlinson (@LucasFoxNews) September 27, 2021
South Korean President Moon Jae-in recently told the UN General Assembly he wants a formal declaration to end the Korean War. Meanwhile, North Korean Leader Kim Jong-un's sister, Kim Yo Jong, has said her country will meet with the South but only if both countries demonstrate mutual respect and the neighboring country "stop spouting an impudent remark."
It seems as though North Korea is sending mixed messages and, unlike former President Donald Trump, Joe Biden has not opened a dialogue with Kim Jong-un.


If you've ever browsed an e-commerce site you've likely seen the image zooming effect. You hover a product photo and that part of the image magnifies for a clearer view.
The ZooMove plugin is a great way to replicate this effect on your site. It's powered by jQuery, so you can get this up & running quickly without much code.
ZooMove is completely free and open source, available on GitHub for any curious developers. It can be installed through npm, Bower, Yarn, or downloaded directly from CDNJS.
Both ZooMove files can be minified if you want faster page loads. You could also combine the CSS file into your main stylesheet if that's easier.
All the real magic happens in the HTML where you can set HTML5 data-* attributes for the different effects.
A final fifth parameter lets you define what the new image URL should be (if needed).
You can use ZooMove in all major browsers, including IE9+. This plugin is widely supported and it offers one heck of a user experience.
If you're looking for a simple hover-to-zoom library ZooMove is an excellent choice. It's lightweight enough to run on any website and it's powered by jQuery, so you won't need to write as much code to get it working.
Visit the main page to see it in action and check out the documentation on GitHub to learn more.

Henry S. Smith
Henry S. Smith was born around 1807 in Putnam County, New York. On 21 December 1831, he married Phoebe (Phebe) Ann Barker. They had one daughter, Elizabeth T. Smith, who was born 28 February 1835 in Erie County, New York, and who married William Henry Hammersley on 6 October 1853.
The 1855 New York State Census has Henry and Phoebe Smith living in Brooklyn, and lists Putnam County as the birthplace for Henry and Greene County for Phoebe. Henry is listed as a "Carman" or "Cartman" for his employment. Also listed are Elizabeth Hammersley (Erie County), her husband William (England), and Henry's mother-in-law, Phoebe Barker (aged 83 from Greene County).
The 1860 United States Federal Census has Henry Smith, Phebe Ann Smith, Elizabeth Hammersley, Grace C. Hammersley, and Charles Hammersley living in Flint, Michigan.
The 1870 United States Federal Census has Henry and Phebe Smith living in Geneva, Wisconsin.
The 1880 United State Federal Census lists Henry Smith as a widower and retired farmer. He is living with his daughter and son-in-law, William and Elizabeth Hammersley, and two of their children, Charles and Willie. His parents are listed as having been born in New York.
Henry is my 4th great grandfather. I am seeking to find out who were his parents. As you can imagine, with a last name like Smith, the search has been difficult, compounded by the fact that Upstate New York is not the most readily available family history data.

Squid Game: rug pull scam cryptocurrency collapse
A digital token inspired by the popular South Korean Netflix series Squid Game has lost almost all of its value as it was revealed to be an apparent scam, BBC reports.
Squid, which marketed itself as a "play-to-earn cryptocurrency", had seen its price soar in recent days – surging by thousands of per cent.
This kind of scam is commonly called a "rug pull" by crypto investors.
This happens when the promoter of a digital token draws in buyers, stops trading activity and makes off with the money raised from sales.
Squid's developers have made off with an estimated $3.38m (£2.48m), according to technology website Gizmodo.
"Play-to-earn" cryptocurrency is where people buy tokens to use in online games and can earn more tokens which can later be exchanged for other cryptocurrencies or national currencies.
Last Tuesday, Squid was trading at just 1 cent. In less than a week its price had jumped to over $2,856.
Cryptocurrency experts had warned of several tell-tale signs that it was likely to be a scam. Most telling was that people who bought Squid tokens were unable to sell them.
Critics also highlighted that its website contained many spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. The website is no longer online and social media accounts promoting the tokens have also vanished.
"It is one of many schemes by which naïve retail investors are drawn in and exploited by malevolent crypto promoters," Cornell University economist Eswar Prasad told the BBC.
Professor Prasad said buyers need to be aware when buying cryptocurrencies as there is almost no regulatory oversight.
Squid was available for sale on decentralised crypto exchanges including PancakeSwap and DODO, which allows for buyers to connect directly to sellers, without a central authority.

Key Focus areas
Accelerating Smart Ideas
HCI Innovation Hubs leading the globe in innovative approaches to health care and patient care
HCI Health Innovation Hubs
Enhancing lives through Innovation
HCI Health Innovation Hubs taking the best in health innovation to the world. HCI is proud to have grown globally from our head office and first campus in Victoria Australia. Our initial HCI Health Innovation Hubs will be located in Melbourne Australia and regional Victoria and we look forward to taking the best in healthcare Innovation from Victoria Australia to the world and bringing the world's best Healthcare Innovations to the great state of Victoria Australia.
The aim of our HCI'S 'Health innovation hubs' is to immerse students in the world of innovation and healthcare innovation by combining scientific health care innovation practice and theory with sound business management and innovation practice and theory to create build and understand the most innovative health care products, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, policies, research and implementation.
Our HCI Health Innovation hubs are intended to immerse students and equip them to use sound theory and practice to formulate new healthcare innovations that will lead the world in advancement of healthcare and patient care.
What is Health Innovation Hub?
Innovation is a very deep-rooted notion. The term has made its way into healthcare:
a new idea, device, or method
The act or process of introducing new ideas, devices, or methods.
To become a global provider of healthcare education and research
Create jobs, improve lives
Health education and global well-being
What is the current problem / opportunity that our project responds to?
Our project responds to a gap/absence of Health-related Innovation Hubs in Victoria. The establishment of HCI Health Innovation hubs by us in conjunction with our TAFE and industry partners will improve Victoria's innovation capability and innovation agenda in the area of Medical Technology and Pharmaceuticals. Worldwide innovation hubs are characterized by start-ups supported by leading academic and research institutions, easy access to venture funds, accelerators and an open, collaborative ecosystem that enables innovation. This supports the view of our Director of Innovation, Professor Antony Jacobson that our HCI innovation hubs will be essential to drive innovation and that our HCI Innovation hub project will assist Victoria moving forward in supporting health innovation / start ups and boost economic activity in addition to increasing significantly Victoria's innovation capability.
What is your project/concept proposal?
The project is the creation, development, promotion and utilisation of Health Innovation Hubs at all HCI campuses under the direction of HCI's dedicated entrepreneur-in-residence and Innovation Project Manager, Professor Antony Jacobson (a Deans Fellow of Innovation at Hebrew University). The creation of such hubs will address the significant need identified by Esmond that higher education in VET colleges should: aspire new heights; rather than offering inferior versions of higher education, colleges are well-placed to respond to emerging forms of economic activity in an increasingly fragmented world where new knowledge often emerges outside the academy.
Their links with the workplace and with local communities can contribute to a clear, positive and higher vision of the future (Esmond 2014, p.5 ) stated in, Driving Vets role in the innovation system Thus far Professor Jacobson, HCIs (Health Career International Pty Ltd) Innovation Project Manager has analysed our current course offerings and the offerings of other RTOs and the VET sector, and identified large gaps between collaboration between the educational sector and industry regarding course offerings.
He has shared the enormous gains being enjoyed in countries such as Israel the start-up nation through the development of innovation hubs. Our proposal is to utilise the seed funding offered to research, refine and evaluate our proposal to develop with TAFE partners, Health Innovation Hubs in all of our Victorian campuses to inspire students to innovate in the health sector by collaborating with industry and develop a broadened mindset to seize entrepreneurial opportunity whether as a future employee or a start-up creator.
(A complete partnership proposal with TAFE and industry partners will be developed utilising seed funding if granted)
Understanding basis for practice improvement
Artificial intelligence and decision support systems to support safe, evidence-based precision healthcare
Creating new technologies and models of care to enable genuinely consumer driven care
Designing models of care which provide improved patient safety and quality
Understanding the relationship between health system complexity and health system performance.
'Australia and the globe come together at HCI Health Innovation Hubs!' At HCI we know to be globally connected offers immediate and future benefit for our students and our health care partners. That is why HCI is committed to establishing and growing our innovation footprint across the globe. HCI already has campuses throughout Australia, India, Dubai and soon in Silicon Valley.

I enjoy pictures a lot. Since my early childhood. Pictures of all kinds. Seeing the world through pictures of all kinds has been part of my work as an artist from the very first moment I realized my vocation. I must repeat here something I wrote elsewhere: first I started to draw, paint and take photos and then, through this visual workshop experience, which has been indeed a life's experience, I moved to writing. I should also remind my reader that my first published attempt, Real bottle and Fake bottle, consisted indeed of full-page drawings juxtaposed to text-pages. And of course, if you have already visited my Joyce page in this site you are aware that my first illustrated book has been Dear Dirty Dublin, a pictorial study of Ulysses. Apart from that practically all my books are illustrated with photos of mine either on the cover on in the inside layout.
In this respect making books with other people's photos has been a real enjoyment for me: reading carefully the pictures, emphasizing the what and how one should see into them, placing their subject in its social and cultural context, understanding a moment petrified in History but crossing the line of Time, making a story out of a compact series of pictures – all that industry made me accompany the photos in each project with captions and texts emphatically longer than the usual practice trying in this way to grant, sort of, a second life to the photos, a narrated life that runs in a stream parallel to the visual one.
A photo eye-witness to the dreams' street, Archive Takis Pananides, 2013.
Takis Pananides was a well-known photographer who followed consistently the evolution of Greek pop music in the sixties. His photos contribute a lot to the historic and cultural heritage of the period. The artist, in his more than 25 years career, has managed to capture in film the best moments of those innovators (musicians, lead singers, song-writers etc) who revolutionized Greek music – and the accompanying texts by Aris M. explain the revolting impact of a fresh sound and verse to a society oppressed by the royal USA-supported regime of the period (Topos books).
The book 's concept (Topos books 2007) is built on a selection by Aris M. of more than 150 black and white images, many of which had appeared on the front pages of Greece's leading newspapers between 1950 and 1965, since their creator, Kostas Megalokonomou, had been working for many decades as a photo reporter. Photos are accompanied by texts which are something more than captions; Aris M. presents a way of seeing the realistic dimensions of history which underlies what is accidentally captured by the ephemeral reportage.
This is a photographic record of recent Greek history as experienced by common men and women in the post-Civil War period rather than by the protagonists like politicians and other prominent Greeks of the period.
It is a sideways look at a country that is less folklore than usually portrayed abroad and more politically aware than its travel-poster image might suggest. This is in fact an unknown Greece with its martyrs and its saints, with people deeply distressed in their everyday life, in work and at home, a Greece of which the best part of its intellectuals attempted at the period to get rid of the ghosts of a past which divided them for a lost cause.
A picture of agricultural and folklore-like Greece in the sixties. Politicians of the period (like Prime minister K. Karamanlis, who is here standing in the middle of some «representatives» of the Province) while on the one hand attempted to modernize the country, on the other, being consistently, steadily bound to the demands of the American global policy and the local capital, were never in a position to take into serious consideration the rights and the needs of the people.
100 years of social upheaval and transformation in a vast country. 100 years of social expectations and dreams that were doomed from the very beginning. 100 years of an ambitious social experiment that ended with the victory of capitalism over the application of socialist ideas predominantly in one country. 100 years of Soviet Union as the left pole of a risky balance: that of super powers who governed the world through the might of violence, money, and continuous intimidation for a nuclear war. 100 years of history, the 20th century history, in amazing pictures. From the early years with the first timid reactions against the tzar's absolute monarchy to the perestroika era.
The principal concept of this project has been to show through a combination of pictures and text the unbelievable historical contradiction that dominated the lives of all people during a great part of that period: in such a way that while people in USSR longed for the paradise of the West and hated in their majority the Stalinist regime, millions of other people in the democracies of the West longed for the socialist paradise they believed it prospered in USSR! In both parts of the globe people had been very anxious to get what they didn't possess in their own country, giving a hard and continuous struggle to attain their utopian dream, which at the end has been proved for both sides to be a mere illusion (A co-edition of Rizareion and Stavros Niarchos Institutions).

An argument for renewables, and for a new utility paradigm
In late January 2019, California's largest investor-owned utility Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) declared bankruptcy for the second time, causing anxiety for investors, ratepayers, employees, PPA holders, elected government officials and, lest we forget, fire and gas explosion victims. Judge Alsup, who is overseeing PG&E's probation from its felony conviction, lambasted the company for violating its probation. "To my mind, there's a very clear-cut pattern here: that PG&E is starting these fires," Alsup said. "What do we do? Does the judge just turn a blind eye and say, 'PG&E continue your business as usual. Kill more people by starting more fires."

These rights of personhood conferred to corporations in 1897 also allow for the corporation to be tried and convicted. In 2016, PG&E was found guilty in Federal Court of violating pipeline safety rules and misleading investigators over the 2010 pipeline explosion in San Bruno that killed eight people and destroyed 38 homes.
PG&E's recent bankruptcy filing appears a strategic defensive move designed to protect the utility from liability. The utility's filing potentially enables it to renegotiate power purchase agreements, in particular for solar contracts, at rates the utility argues, reflect new, lower costs. In its filing, the utility asked the court to allow it to cancel US$42-billion in 387 energy contracts that it entered into over the past 15 years. 298 of the contracts were for solar, wind, or other renewables. Just the potential of contract cancellation and renegotiation has affected the credit ratings of utility scale projects in the state and could affect the ratings of projects outside of California, if these projects are on the Western Grid and sell electricity to PG&E. The U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has stated it has veto power over the bankruptcy court in this regard.
PG&E's latest bankruptcy is being overseen by the same Federal judge who oversaw its 2001 bankruptcy filing, Judge Dennis Montali. In PG&E's first filing, Judge Montali upheld the PPAs. Despite the precedent set here, a different decision is possible given the different market circumstances today and in 2001.
Right to renegotiate?
A glance at the chart to the right, which depicts U.S. demand and average module prices from 2001 through 2018, illustrates that U.S. solar deployment has grown significantly, while module prices have decreased drastically over the same period. PG&E could argue that the significant price decrease for components calls for a reassessment of current PPA rates, allowing the utility to intimate that this might lead to lower costs for it as it restructures, as well as lower electricity prices for ratepayers. Allowing the utility to renegotiate its contracts inserts uncertainty and, therefore, risk into the development process, potentially shaking investor confidence.
The Republic of South Africa's government-owned utility offers an example: In mid-2016, Eskom began refusing to sign PPAs won under the country's Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Program (REIPPP) with Independent Power Producers (IPPs). Eskom's action stalled solar project development in the country. In 2018, South African courts ruled that Eskom must resume signing the abandoned PPAs, which the utility did late that year. This year, the government looks to be moving to renegotiate PPAs signed under its 2011 and 2012 REIPPP in an attempt to aid its technically-bankrupt utility.
Back to PG&E: Pay attention to this case, because should the judge allow it to renegotiate its contracts, a precedent will be set. This could encourage other utilities in the Unites States and elsewhere to take the same action, thus inserting uncertainty and risk into the solar market. Granted higher risk generally means higher reward, but, as the solar industry has no control over the price of its components, or the value of its product (electricity), higher risk may mean lower reward.
From raw material to the produced kilowatt hour, a free market does not exist for electricity – just ask OPEC. Should the bankruptcy court (and potentially FERC) allow PG&E to renegotiate its PPAs, will net metering be far behind?

Q: Need to append SameSite=None; Secure to a cookie in Tomcat I have an install of Tomcat 8.0.30 that is hosted on a Windows Server VM.  I am having an issue with the new Chrome 80 update that is causing errors due to the new requirement for SameSite=None and Secure to be passed in cookies.
Because of the older version of Tomcat, I can not use the Cookie Processor, because it ommits the SameSite attribute.
I was hoping I could address this with a url rewrite rule like below, but it fails with it.
Any idea what is wrong with my RewriteRule?
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} JSESSIONID [NC]
RewriteRule ^/$ ($1$2; SameSite=None; Secure)

Are they preparing for a major catastrophic event? Are they going to blow some stuff up since the announcement from Janet Napolitano that the lone terrorists are on the loose?
Is the New Madrid going to blow? Is Planet X coming? We could ask questions all day but the fact is, Military is mobilizing from the inside-out without telling the Citizens what is really happening.
Citizens are concerned about the Media Blackout on the Military mobilizing throughout the country. Other eyewitnesses say some Military vehicles are not marked and do not have any identification of US military or otherwise.
Unfortunately, the fact that many of these drills are deeply traumatizing many children does not seem to bother too many people. Our schools more closely resemble prison camps every single day, and it is our children that are suffering because of it.
It is also important to keep in mind that much of the time these drills are not the fault of local school administrators. Often, these drills are being mandated at the state level.
Well, I went to public schools all my life and nothing like this ever happened when I was growing up, so I wanted to do a little digging to see if this was actually happening around the country or if it was just an Internet rumor.
Unfortunately, what I found out was quite disturbing. One scenario involved a military person who went ballistic after serving numerous tours of duty in Afghanistan.

Utah sprang to media attention when the Camp Williams military base near the town of Bluffdale sprouted a vast, acre construction site.
Not only that, but the authority claimed inside the EO does not only apply to National Emergencies and times of war.
It also applies in peacetime. The unconstitutionality of the overwhelming majority of Executive Orders is well established, as well as the illegality of denying citizens their basic Constitutional and human rights, even in the event of a legitimate national emergency.
As was mentioned above, the scope of the EO is virtually all-encompassing. The list of delegations and the responsibility of the Secretaries as provided in this section are as follows: Obviously, the ability of the U. Indeed, the EO states this much directly when it says, The head of each agency engaged in procurement for the national defense is delegated the authority of the President under section b 1 of the Act, 50 U.
Although history has often come to judge these orders as both immoral and unconstitutional, the fact is that the victims of the orders suffered no less because of the retroactive judgment of their progeny. It is for this reason that we must immediately condemn and resist such obvious usurpation as is currently being attempted by the U.

2018 will mark Eide Industries' 80th Anniversary, but as you can see the company's roots go back over 100 years.
It was the late 1890's and the industrial revolution was in full bloom. It was a decade which saw the invention of the X-Ray, the creation of motion pictures, and the modern-day submarine. It was also the decade which saw Oscar Eide start a small canvas products business in a port village along the shore of New Zealand.
By the early 1900's, the Eide's of New Zealand had become a well-established tent, sail and awning making company. Also during this period, the Eide family had a son who would later bring the family's precision craftsmanship to America. As a boy, the son, Edgar Stanley Eide enjoyed working with heavy canvas and sailcloth. He even made awnings and other sewn items on the family's large industrial sewing machines.
In the early 1920's, as the United States began tightening its immigration laws under the leadership of President Warren G. Harding, two events were simultaneously occurring which would later shape the destiny of the Eide family business in America. The first event was Stan Eide's successful immigration to the U.S. as a stowaway aboard a sailing ship, where he settled first in Seattle and worked for local sail makers. The second of these seemingly unrelated events was the formation of the High-Grade Tent and Duct Company. By the late 1920's, Stan had migrated from Seattle to Los Angeles where he continued to work for small awning and canvas shops as a craftsman.
In 1938, just after the Hoover Dam was completed and the Fair Labor Standards Act was passed, Stan made his move. After sizing up several local companies, Stan bought High-Grade Tent and Duct Company. Thus establishing what was later to become Eide Industries, Inc.
Business was tough in the early years. Germany had already invaded Poland and World War II was in full swing. But the company hung on making military tents and other war effort products for the U.S. Armed Forces. With the return of the American soldiers just after the Second World War, there was increased demand for awnings and related canvas products. Stan's company, still named High-Grade Tent and Duct, began to grow.
The latest in precision machinery has always been a factor in Eide's success.
In 1950, the company was able to buy a Fails Multiplex 20-Needled Commercial Quilting Machine; and with that purchase landed a large contract to make moving blankets for the Bekins Moving Company. During this period of growth and prosperity, Stan was forced several times to move the company to larger quarters in order to handle the increased volume. And with this increase in volume, his two sons were called upon to help manage the family's business.
By 1955 Stan, his sons (Jack and Jim) incorporated in the state of California under the official name of Eide Industries, Inc. From this point on, there was no stopping Eide Industries. Over the next 18-years, Eide would acquire Los Angeles Awning Company, Glendale Awning & Tent, Tech Sew Company and many other local awning and canvas shops.
Finally in 1973 at the age of 70, Stan retired from the awning and canvas business he so dearly loved. Though his retirement marked the end of a spectacular career for Stan Eide, it signaled the beginning of a whole new era for Jack and Jim Eide, and their two new partners, Don Araiza and George Ochs.
This changing of the guard was not the only change at Eide Industries. With it came a renewed commitment to the organization, a fresh energy level, better products and new markets. It was an exciting time of growth. During this period, Eide bought Santa Ana Canvas, Long Beach Awning & Tent, along with several other companies and their product lines.
The new force of Jack, Jim, Don, and George worked well together from the beginning, each managed a different part of the business.
In fact, between 1973 and 1981, Eide was able to quadruple its business using the same formulas Stan had used 20-years earlier; hard work, precision craftsmanship, and strategic acquisitions.
Although the 1980's saw the retirement of both Jack and Jim Eide, the 80's also gave the company a new energy with the addition of two new partners, Jesse Borrego and Joe Belli. The new partnership then proceeded to forge Eide's name throughout the industry by becoming prominent board members for the Industrial Fabrics Association International (IFAI), Western Canvas Products Association (WCPA), and later the Professional Awning Manufacturers Association (PAMA).
By the late 90's, technology was in full swing. Eide invented and produced EideCAD, the first awning and canopy bidding and drafting software, which was distributed throughout the industry. And with the creation of the Internet, www.EideIndustries.com went live. The decade that followed saw the launch of several websites ( RetractableStructures.com, RaceCanopies.com, ResortCabanas.com, TensileFacades.com, TensionStructures.com) which complimented the newly established sub-divisions at Eide.
As the next step towards retirement and after 35+ years of dedicated service, George Ochs relinquished his partnership with Eide in 2008. This opened the door of opportunity for Dan Neill in 2009, to become the newest member of the Eide lineage.
In December 2013, the changing of the guard then saw Joe Belli elected as President, with Don Araiza taking on a mentoring position and overseeing all legal and contract issues.
Today, Eide Industries continues to operate from a 41,000 square foot facility in Cerritos, California and specializes in the designing and building of sustainable shade structure solutions. Including, but not limited to, architectural metal & fabric structures, kinetic shade systems, tensile structures, commercial awning and canopy systems, race transporter canopies, industrial sewn canvas products, and the list goes on and on.
All of Eide Industries products are built with fine workmanship, that came from Stan Eide's values of quality and excellence. Forged long ago in that port village along New Zealand's shores, and brought to America for the year 2014.
