Veteran freedom fighter B V Kakkilaya passed away
Mangalore, Jun 4: Veteran freedom fighter and well-known leader of the Communist Party of India (CPI) and former member of Parliament B V Kakkilaya passed away at 2 am on Monday June 4. He was 93.
Kakkilaya was admitted to a private hospital on May 23 and was being treated for brain haemorrhage. He was on ventilator and his condition is said to have deteriorated two days ago.
Born on April 11, 1919, Kakkilaya was the pioneer of the Karnataka unification movement. A prolific writer and scholar, BVK, as he was popularly known, was involved in several people's movements since his early days and was instrumental in setting up the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) in Karnataka. He played an important role in bringing about land reforms in the state.
Apart from being member of the Rajya Sabha in 1952-54, he was also a legislator in the Karnataka assembly from Bantwal in the 1970s.
In the 1940s, he participated in the Quit India Movement and many other freedom struggle movements. Even at that time, he fought for the rights of farmers and united them for a cause.
His wife Ahalya passed away in 1998 after a heart attack. He is survived by four sons Srinivasa (now a practicing physician at Mangalore), Venkatakrishna (now a neonatologist at Dallas, US), Harish (now a laparoscopic surgeon at US), and Suryanarayana (now a psychiatrist at UK).

Figure 222. Apteryx. Figure 223. Penguin
Part of Popular Zoology
Figures 222 and 223 of the 1887 volume Popular Zoology. Figure 222 depicts a apteryx, more commonly known as a kiwi. Figure 223 depicts a penguin.
Designed to give students an understanding of the animal worlds, Popular Zoology describes and identifies the animals in two kingdoms of nature: the Invertebrates and the Vertebrates. The volume includes copious intaglio printed illustrations of the animals described, as well as a series of charts detailing the systematic arrangement of representative forms. This is one of a series of textbooks written by American educator Joel Dorman Steele (1836-1886), who often worked in collaboration with his wife Esther Baker Steele (1835-1911). Subjects addressed in a similar manner in other volumes include chemistry, human physiology, physics,and astronomy. Popular Zoology was completed posthumously by J. W. P. Jenks (1819-1894), Professor of Agricultural Zoology at Brown University, who is credited as a co-author on the volume.

Q: Postgresql select min Date value These are my tables:

These are my data:

    2        user2         123

    1        1    2015-05-27 14:47:14
    2        1    2015-05-27 14:47:15
    3        1    2015-05-27 14:47:16
    4        2    2015-05-27 14:47:17

    6        2    2015-05-12 14:47:19

I want to show the amount of ticket that is assigned to a user with the userid and minimum date with the time.
My current query is:
select
    min(t.dateticket) as mydate,
    (select min(ti.timeticket) as mytime from tickets ti where ti.userid=t.userid),
    t.userid,
    count(t.ticketid) as my_all
from
    tickets t
group by
    t.userid
order by
    my_all asc,
    mydate asc,
    mytime asc;

The current result is:

        mydate     mytime     userid  my_all
      2015-05-27   14:47:14     1        3
      2015-05-12   14:47:17     2        3

The expected result is:

        mydate     mytime     userid  my_all
      2015-05-12   14:47:19     1        3
      2015-05-27   14:47:14     2        3

A: I think this will do what you want:
select distinct on (userid) dateticket, timeticket, userid,
       count(*) over (partition by userid) as my_all
from tickets t
order by userid, dateticket, timeticket;

distinct on returns the first record in each group, based on the order by.  The trick is to get the count of all the tickets using a window function.
EDIT:
For an additional sort, use a subquery:
select t.*
from (select distinct on (userid) dateticket, timeticket, userid,
             count(*) over (partition by userid) as my_all
      from tickets t
      order by userid, dateticket, timeticket
     ) t
order by my_all, dateticket, timeticket.

Q: Update for Deprecated setLayerInsertionPoint() in QGIS3 The setLayerInsertionPoint() with the QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRoot() object is deprecated.  The documentation says:
since QGIS 3.10 use setLayerInsertionPoint( const InsertionPoint &insertionPoint ) instead

but I can find no example of how to implement this update.  My current code is as follows:
QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRegistryBridge().setLayerInsertionPoint(QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRoot(), 0)

It seems the only change is the first argument.  How should I update the statement to comply with current requirements?
QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRegistryBridge().setLayerInsertionPoint([what_goes_here?], 0)

A: I have not actually tested this but the following should work:
root_group = QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRoot()

insertion_point = QgsLayerTreeRegistryBridge.InsertionPoint(root_group, 0)

QgsProject.instance().layerTreeRegistryBridge().setInsertionPoint(insertion_point)

To check, the line:
print(insertion_point)

returns:
<qgis._core.QgsLayerTreeRegistryBridge.InsertionPoint object at 0x000001DAE4116678>

I love this nail polish. I love that this nail polish brand has a manifesto. I love the bottle design. I literally gasped when I first saw them. Sheswai Lacquers are 3-free and sold in Anthropologie stores and online for $16. They have caps made from sustainably harvested wood, grown on family owned tree farms. HOT. And a portion of their sales is "given to organizations that help educate, and sustain our beautiful planet." I got the opportunity to try out two of their colors, which have freaking adorable names, and I was just as impressed with their quality as I was the brand image.
Honeyfox is a bright true red that seriously seduced my eyeballs. There are many reds out there, that is sure enough, but this one is pretty on point. It slid over my tips without any trouble and covered beautifully in two coats. It dried quickly too, I don't usually put topcoat on when I'm swatching and I happened to nick my nail against the bottle before I had taken any photos and it was already solid. Amazing.
Stoned is described as "a smooth pebble grey with a touch of lavender and a hint of shimmer that will leave you feeling blissfully happy." Well it damn well left me happy, it left me ecstatic! I absolutely adore this taupey shimmer bomb, it is so classy but still suitably bold. This is two coats as well.
I know many folks won't splurge $16 on nail polish, but you have to admit, they are awful cute. And from my experience, they perform just as well or better than other high end brands. Check out Sheswai's website, http://sheswai.com/, to see their philosophy on life and polish. I think you'll like what you see.

Real-time monitoring and analytics reduces cost of manual inspections, tightens supply chain.
Digi International (NASDAQ: DGII) today launched Digi Connect® Tank, a fully integrated, cellular-enabled remote tank-level monitoring solution for single tanks, totes and containers. Digi Connect Tank, the latest addition to Digi's family of solutions for tank monitoring, helps companies manage remote single tank assets efficiently and cost effectively through up-to-the-minute tank level and location data.
Automated tank data and real-time analytics decrease the need for manual inspections at remote tank sites. This automation results in fewer field service trips to remote tanks limiting accidents and insurance liability costs, while decreasing fuel and fleet costs. Real-time analytics enable a more predicable supply chain, so inventory levels can be tightly monitored and managed. Remote visibility of inventory levels ensures that tanks do not run out or overflow, providing customers with exactly what they need when they need it.
"Digi Connect Tank dramatically reduces our customers' cost to remotely monitor a large number of single-tank locations," saidKim Pearson, CEO of New Boundary Technologies, a solution provider for tank monitoring.
Digi Connect Tank is ideal for oil, waste oil, chemical, water, wastewater, agriculture and other inventory level monitoring applications. It features both CDMA and 3G GSM cellular technologies, an integrated ultrasonic sensor by Massa Products Corporation with non-contact liquid level, integrated GPS, a durable NEMA 4X enclosure and long battery life (2-3 years with normal usage).
Digi Connect Tank seamlessly integrates data streams into Device Cloud by Etherios™ enabling companies to quickly connect and manage their remote assets using any application. Device Cloud's open architecture makes it easy to connect with any device and provides organizations with a secure platform to remotely manage and control their devices in the cloud. Leveraging Device Cloud's APIs, Digi Connect Tank is able to report data only as needed (such as a low-level alarm), limiting costly cellular data charges.
"Digi Connect Tank fills a distinct need we see in the market through a great deal of field experience. Monitoring single remote storage tanks can be expensive, inefficient and dangerous," said Kevin C. Riley, senior vice president of sales, Digi International.
For more information about Digi Connect Tank, visit www.digi.com/tank. For more information about Device Cloud, visitwww.etherios.com/devicecloud. Etherios, a division of Digi International, provides custom application development and integration services to speed time to market of tank solutions.

Is there any way that someone could make it so WinSCP will just continue on it's merry way afterwards?
How hard would it be to just check the files modified time and if it's $null or invalid, ignore it in the sync process?
I have been using WinSCP with Powershell for some time and it was working fine until I came across this problem.. I've solved it myself however using Powershell - just made a function to check the files lastwritetime propery and if it's $null it's added to an array that's used in the #exclude directive.

Welcome to David Wick and the Ashland Culture of Peace Commission who have established through their partnerships with civic society and the City Council Ashland, Oregon: City of Peace.
Reading of the Ashland City Council's Proclamation as an International City of Peace, May 17, 2017.
A community-wide movement dedicated to transforming our attitudes, behaviors, and institutions into ones that foster harmonious relationships with each other and the natural world.
Bringing the concept for a Culture of Peace to Ashland, on March 17, 2015, the Mayor and Ashland City Council unanimously adopted the Culture of Peace Proclamation with the concluding paragraph stating, "NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council and Mayor of Ashland strongly encourage residents to work toward development of a Culture of Peace community, and pledge to lend appropriate encouragement and support to that effort." This was inspired by a citizen led group where alignment of values with the city government was found and then further developed.
On September 21, 2015, the International Day of Peace, the Ashland Culture of Peace Commission (ACPC) was launched. The Commission is a community initiative, an independent citizen's commission, which has grown organically from the ground up. It is made up of volunteer Commission Members and an integrally woven group of Action Teams who conduct the work of ACPC. The Commission Members have been chosen to represent segments of Ashland's community as inspired by the Pathways To Peace, Peace Wheel. This includes: education, business, media, the arts, science, environment, spirituality, law, and habitat. Commission members include the editor of the city newspaper, chief of police, headed of the public library, County Justice of the Peace, artists, musicians, and young people.
The ACPC community activities include: community talking circles, providing homeless and travelers a safe place to talk, peace education experiences through interfacing with Ashland School District and students, Peacebuilding skills training programs for volunteers, bi-weekly Culture of Peace articles in the Ashland Daily Tidings newspaper, development of a network of community non-profit organizations, leadership through values consulting, implicit bias training and inspire the business community through the Ashland Chamber of Commerce.
ACPC is an organization that provides service to the community through recognizing specific needs, often organically developed, and offering help and guidance through creative solutions led by our value: compassion, accountability, inclusivity, respect, and openness to change.
The Ashland Culture of Peace Commission functions with approximately 60 core volunteers.
The first year of ACPC has been creative, productive and moving quickly with high caliber volunteers who have generated 15,000 volunteer hours in 2016. Significant community impact has been established in one year.
ACPC is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization known as Culture of Peace Commissions with a Board of Directors and an Executive Director with a dba of Ashland Culture of Peace Commission.
ACPC is focused on the transition from the culture of violence and war that unfortunately we live within, to a new culture, a culture of peace. This is a vital local and global transformation. There are many factors, influences and choices that have brought communities the issues, difficulties, and challenges dealt with every day. This includes issues related to social justice, human rights, environmental protection and equitable relationships showing up as homelessness, loss of affordable housing, racial discrimination, and sexual harassment. Since the national election fears and challenges have increased, we are exploring ways to bring people from a broad political spectrum of beliefs and perspectives together to find common values and care in this community. We are being proactive rather than waiting to be reactive. Community does come down to daily choices and agreements we all make, and over time we create our environment and culture.
With our unique approach, Ashland is seen by many people as a model of this new culture for other cities. It is about shifting mindset and behavior in all aspects of our societies to embrace humanity's interconnectedness as we move from force to reason, from discord and violence to dialogue and peacebuilding. The intention is to inspire new thinking and see through new lenses to further develop the Culture of Peace for present and future generations. This leads to systemic change, the long term goal of the Ashland Culture of Peace Commission.
Through a twist of fate, and ACPC co-founder Irene Kai's vision, Ashland will become the home of the World Peace Flame Monument on Peace Day, September 21, 2018. The World Peace Flame Foundation in the Hague, Netherlands has given Ashland permission to erect a replica of the monument in Snowdonia, Wales, the first in North America.
The World Peace Flame Monument in Ashland will be a beacon of hope and inspiration for all people locally, nationally and internationally.
As defined by the United Nations, the Culture of Peace is a set of values, attitudes, modes of behavior and ways of life that reject violence and prevent conflicts by tackling their root causes to solve problems through dialogue and negotiation among individuals, groups and nations (UN Resolution A/RES/52/13). We have found that the following is fundamental to recognizing, and co-creating a Culture of Peace.
Anyone who can align themselves with these values, who is truly curious about other people's unique perspective, who can listen to the other person's perspective without needing to agree or disagree is by our definition, a peace ambassador.
We believe in the principle that the act of deeply listening to another's perspective from a place of non-judgmental witnessing is in and of itself a radical act. We have found that when human beings feel truly heard by someone not trying to convince them or convert them to another way of thinking, that act in and of itself causes a shift in the person speaking.
This is why we believe that one of the core ingredients for creating peace is to listen with respect and care, especially to points of view different from our own. We recognize that we ourselves hold a perspective limited by definition, by our own experiences and beliefs, and that the experiences and beliefs held by others are as valid as our own.
Once people feel truly heard, an open, honest and respectful dialogue can ensue. We believe that when we demonstrate our respect for another by listening in this way, the other person is more likely to respond in kind. This exemplifies peace.
Thus we believe we can be valuable to our community simply by practicing our values in the presence of others while asking the question, "What would a culture of peace look like in this situation?", having no explicit answer but trusting that the combination of each person's answer to this question will guide us in the right direction.
Two Ashland mothers decided to organize the Southern Oregon Women's March, which was scheduled for January 21, 2017 to be in alignment with other marches across the country and in Washington, D.C. protesting the new US administration. The Ashland Culture of Peace Commission was the first organization from which they sought sponsorship. David Wick and ACPC colleague Bob Morse explained that ACPC activities are grounded in, and examples of, our values, and not on being "anti", or focused on an "enemy". This was a condition for our sponsorship. Inspired, the two organizers left to draft a new statement of purpose and guidelines for the march.

Ashland is a city in Jackson County, in the State of Oregon. It lies along Interstate 5 approximately 16 miles (26 km) north of the California border and near the south end of the Bear Creek Valley, an arm of the Rogue Valley. As of July 1, 2013, the city's population was estimated to be 20,713.
Oregon is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Oregon is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the north by Washington, on the south by California, on the east by Idaho, and on the southeast by Nevada. The Columbia River delineates much of Oregon's northern boundary, and the Snake River delineates much of the eastern boundary.
The city is the home of Southern Oregon University (SOU) and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival (OSF). These are important to Ashland's economy, which also depends on restaurants, galleries, and retail stores that cater to tourists. Lithia Park along Ashland Creek, historic buildings, and a paved intercity bike trail provide additional visitor attractions.

"You cannot separate Islam from Islamism. One has to ask the question: If Islam is the norm, if it is peaceful, non-radical and open to co-operation, where does Islamism come from? What is its basis if not Islam?"
(Henryk M. Border in Planet Interview, November 2007)
Henryk M. Broder is a writer and journalist born in Katowice, Poland, in 1946. In 1958 his family emigrated to Germany. He writes regularly for Der Spiegel and Spiegel Online, the most widely read German-language news website.
Broder has published several books about German-Jewish relations. Recently his major concern has been Islamic terrorism and what he considers European appeasement of its radical agenda. One of Broder's favourite targets is what he considers displaced 'political correctness'. At the beginning of his recent book "Hurra, wir kapitulieren!" ("Hurray, we capitulate", 2006) he quotes Winston Churchill: "An appeaser is somebody who feeds a crocodile, hoping that it will eat him last."
In his book he defends Necla Kelek against her critics, praises Peter Schneider and attacks the anthropologist Werner Schiffauer. Given Broder's status as a respected and widely read commentator, his arguments are a good illustration of the turn that the German debate on Islam took in 2005.
One factor that has shaped the German debate on Islam and Muslims is the fear of Islamic terrorism.
In November 2003 bombs went off in Istanbul, destroying two synagogues and a British bank , leaving 57 people dead and 700 wounded. In March 2004 bombs aboard four commuter trains in Madrid killed more than 190 people. In November 2004 Dutch film director Theo van Gogh was murdered by a Dutch-born Islamist. In July 2005 multiple suicide bombings in London left 53 people dead.
There were no terrorist attacks in Germany itself in recent years, but there have been enough reasons for concern. Several of the plotters behind the 9/11 attacks on New York's World Trade Centre came from Hamburg, where they had been living as students. In September 2007 three men were arrested in Southern Germany on suspicion of planning attacks on Frankfurt International Airport, a U.S. military base, pubs and schools. An attempt by foreign students of Lebanese origin to detonate suitcase bombs aboard German trains narrowly failed.
Against this background, not surprisingly, the debate on Islam came to focus increasingly on the issue of terrorism. Broder argues that, rather than fighting Islamic terrorism and the ideology behind it ,Europeans, led by their intellectuals, sought to appease these threats. As the cover of his book points out,, this approach "accelerates the danger of a transformation of Europe into an Islamic continent."

Broder also regards the failure to defend full freedom of speech in the case of the Danish Mohammed caricatures as alarming: "Islamic fundamentalists are considering the West, with full justification, as weak, decadent and not ready to defend itself." (p. 24) He goes on:
"Is a system more vulnerable to totalitarian temptations, the more liberal it is and the less experience it has with political ideas that use democratic means to annul democracy? This would explain why the Brits are so endlessly tolerant. But Germany, which went through the steel storms of two dictatorships […], should know well where tolerance in response to intolerance leads: straight into a catastrophe."
(Henryk M. Broder, Spiegel Online, 17 December 2007)
The phantom of "Islamophobia"
Broder's central claim is that it makes little sense to distinguish between "good" Islam and "bad" Islamists. European politicians and intellectuals have too much empathy for Muslims, he says, and show too much concern for their sensibilities.
Broder dismisses concerns about "Islamophobia" in Germany. He sees instead a direct link between Islamic terrorists in the Middle East, Palestinians fighting Israel, and violent youth in the streets of Berlin:
"There is a direct line leading from Al Qaida in Iraq and the Intifada in Palestine to the young people of "migration background" in Neukolln and Moabit [districts of Berlin] … Osama Bin Laden says to the whole world to F*** off – and they do just that in the schoolyard and in the Berlin underground. Meanwhile the Central Council of German Jews, together with the Turkish Islamic Union, organises a symposium on 'Antisemitism, Islamophobia and xenophobia', thereby suggesting that there is something real about the phantom concept of 'Islamophobia'."
Germans are much too concerned about the perspective of "people with migration background", particularly Muslims:
"Whoever has a "migration background" only needs a lawyer very rarely, for example when slaughtering a film director in the street. In case of smaller infractions of law and order it is generally enough to point out – in the media and to the general public – that the offender is of "migration background". This immediately triggers empathy with the criminal, criticism of the behaviour of the victim ("a provocateur, not showing respect for anything") and the usual question: What have we done to them, that they hate us so much?" (p. 92)
Broder points out that there are "around 2,000 mosques in Germany, while in Saudi Arabia even owning a bible carries an enormous risk" (p. 30). He suggests that one prominent German critic of "Islamophobia", Nobel Prize-winning author Gunther Grass, should apply the principle of reciprocity instead:
"We will transform a church in Lubeck into a mosque, if at the same time a mosque in Riyadh is transformed into a church" (p. 45)
Not surprisingly, Broder is also critical of academics who call for more "understanding" of the problems of (mostly Muslim) migrants. He sides with Necla Kelek in arguing that it is "Islamic culture", which makes it so difficult for Muslims to integrate into Western societies. What counts "for Muslims from Turkey and Arab countries (with different nuances) is above all honour, respect and submission."
(Henryk M. Broder in "Hurra, wir kapitulieren!" p. 113)
Broder notes that in the spring of 2006 the German debate on Islam intensified:
"Three great media events came together: the arguments about the caricatures of Mohammed, the debate about honour killings and other cases of crimes in "migrant families", and the discovery that many German schools were beginning to look like pools full of piranhas." (p. 107)
In 2005, writes Broder, there were no less than 849 cases of violence in Berlin schools. His chapter on violence in German schools ("Foreigners prefer schools without foreigners") also ends with a discussion of terrorism and the murder of Theo van Gogh.
The overall message of his writing is clear: that the Western world faces a serious threat from Islam, be it in the form of terrorism or violence in schools. This requires a robust response, which is not forthcoming. What exactly this response should be in Germany, however, is left unclear.

Welcome to Pinnaroo Primary School
Pinnaroo Primary School serves a rural community, living in the environmentally unique and sensitive Mallee region of South Australia. The school is approximately 250km east of Adelaide, lying 4km west of the Victorian border. The township of Pinnaroo has a population of approximately 800 people with 1200 residing within the district boundary.
The first Pinnaroo School classes were held in the old Methodist Church building in 1906. The Pinnaroo Departmental School was opened in 1910. The old brick building was the first of many buildings to be part of the current school. In 1944, Rosy Pine, Yarrahville, The Oaks, Parilla Well and the Chandos schools joined the Pinnaroo consolidated school. Students from outlying centres traveled to Pinnaroo by bus. The consolidated school became an area school, which was opened on the 31st August 1945. In 1990 the school became Pinnaroo Primary School. learning is shared between students, educators and parents where students can make learning choices, initiating their own curriculum ideas.

Technology Strategy Board | News & Media | Blog | Pushing on a piece of string?
Pushing on a piece of string?
Business is supposed to be quite simple. You have to sell something in which people see real value, but which costs you less than that value to supply. Since it normally takes time to develop that "something", knowing what people will want in the future is a really useful ability.
I seem to have spent a lot of time this week with people who are thinking about why things are successful and how they can increase the chances of success. The start was a meeting with Ben Reason of live|work on the idea of service innovation. I had met Ben at the Design Council-organised breakfast at Number 11 a few weeks ago, and since we were now coinciding at a meeting at DIUS, we took advantage of the preceding lunchtime to catch up.
At the Technology Strategy Board, in the development of Innovation Platforms we have realised that "societal challenges" all involve people. This means that we have to balance two things - the ability of new technology to address the challenge, and its likely acceptance by those who, in the end, will use it. Tackling these big challenges inevitably seems to lead to a heady brew of products and services, and we are working more and more with the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and organisations like Ben's to help us understand and target our efforts.
The meeting that followed was about how government can build some of this service thinking into what it provides. There are things government does that are really good; my favourite example is how much easier it now is to renew your car tax disc. If you have a computer, you can log on with a unique identifier that they send you in the post, the system checks that your car has a current MOT and insurance, all nicely and quickly behind the scenes, and once they have processed your online payment, the tax disc arrives a few days later. The same system is available through post offices and either way, the experience is painless, if costly. There are some other bits of public service which are (allegedly) awful - as if nobody has thought through what you would be doing to access the service.
As I understood the story, the people who redesigned the tax disk process considered how the end user might be accessing the system and what information they might – or might not – have. So they started with the idea that the identity of the car was the important bit, and tied the rest of the process to that. I guess that some other parts of government have not yet addressed the concept of redesigning their entire processes – not just the front end – around how users "use".
If government can achieve its stated goal of spreading this kind of best practice, a lot of our personal interactions with government will get easier and quicker over the next few years.
I guess it's like noticing how many red cars there are once you have bought one, but, for the rest of the week, this motif of thinking about what the end user wants seemed to come up again and again.
Thursday was a workshop organised by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) about food security. It focused on what underpinning research needs to be carried out to address the growing realisation that, in future, access to a proper, nutritionally balanced diet will become increasingly difficult. As the population increases, as there is competition for agricultural land to "grow" fuels, and as climate change leads to water shortages or temperatures which make farming conventional crops or livestock more difficult, then we will need a new set of options. As you might anticipate, the question of genetically modified crops came up – and the usual spirited debate followed. One story that intrigued me was that where high-growth hybrid rices have been available in the Far East, they are often not used because they don't taste the same as "normal" rice. This struck me as a classic example of getting everything right but forgetting the needs/desires of the end user. Like all good damascene moments, once this idea had seen the light, the conversation on my syndicate table (at least) went in a different direction, thinking through how this aspect of use can be used to pull more new products and services into this market.
The following day, I was taking part in a workshop we have been jointly organising with Ofwat to unpack the challenges facing the water industry and how innovation might be able to help. Water is an interesting "utility" to supply. Without water, we very quickly die – so it's more of a right than a need. The average domestic usage in the UK is about 150 litres/person/day but we only drink about 2 litres of that. The rest is used for washing (ourselves and our stuff), flushing the toilet and watering the garden. Yet every one of those litres is purified to quite high standards at a cost of around £1 per cubic metre. The water industry is trying to understand what sort of service we (as users) want from it. Its history is rooted in public service – it was privatised only in 1989 – but it has recognised that the market it operates in is very different from most others. It has a regionally captive customer base – unlike electricity or gas, it is difficult to practically "switch" water companies – and since only about one third of all domestic properties in the UK are metered, it would be difficult to have a tiered tariff system (as has been used in many developing countries to ensure people get enough but are charged for excessive use). It would be easy for the water companies to try to impose a solution on its customers but, from what I have seen over the last few months as we work with them, they too are trying to work out what their customers actually want from them by way of a service.
The problem that faces all these organisations in thinking through what sort of service their customers want is how to ask them. From my days in the chemical industry I remember only too well that asking people what they want usually ends up at something from the expensive end of the existing brochure but at lower prices. To really understand the "unmet needs" of your customers takes time, patience, incredibly good internal information sharing – and probably a good bit of luck. As I mused over the week, I only had to think back to Wednesday evening to see at least part of the solution. Wednesday evening had been the Sciencewise-ERC Awards ceremony. Here I had heard about people in various bits of Government who had taken the time to engage with the wider public, to understand their point of view and tailor communications to take account of their understanding and desires. It's a shame that more people couldn't see and hear the examples on display and at least realise that these techniques are available to them as they seek to find out what the needs and problems of those who use their products and services actually are.
I was always told that it was Keynes who characterised non-use of the market as "pushing on a piece of string" and there are examples of the attempted imposition of new technology, either as a product or a service, which has foundered for that reason. However I cannot help wondering if it isn't possible to link the availability of new technology to the customer end of the supply chain and so – not only pulling the string but using a pulley - drawing innovation into the system much more effectively.


It's been a very busy few weeks introducing Taco Tuesday, Mother's Day, hotter weather, new chalk wall, and extending our hours.
And now, Eat Drink Vegan is 1 week away and there is so much to do this week to get ready: test, finalize, & photograph new flavor, test & finalize another treat, make tons of quart containers, make tons of waffle cones, signage, stamping bowls, general prepping, keeping up with demand at the store, preparing for Memorial Day weekend, plus all of the additional normal store needs. All of this plus my day job means craziness. Just trying to breathe through it.
I still get super nervous before these events. We've done enough now where I feel we know what we are doing, but you never know how many people will come to the booth, how much to bring, and how people will react, etc. This is the first event my family can't help out with, which just means more falls on me. I have a good team lined up and so feeling ok about it, but I'll miss my family and their support.
I am very much looking forward to seeing friends I have made in this community and introducing Yoga-urt to new people. That is always fun!
And I'm really excited about the new flavor which is a collaboration to be announced soon. I love it because it fits within our brand and tastes SO GOOD!
So trying to relax a bit today as once tomorrow hits, it's full steam ahead!

Realismus je teorie mezinárodních vztahů, která se zaměřuje na problematiku moci a národních zájmů. Existuje více obměn této teorie, ale všechny vycházejí z teze, že při neexistenci celosvětové vlády, která by hrála roli globálního policisty, se jednotlivé státy v zájmu vlastní obrany budou chovat racionálně. Současné anarchické poměry ve světě je donutí, aby na ochranu vlastní bezpečnosti využívaly všechny silové prostředky, které mají k dispozici. Hlavním z nich je armáda, přičemž realisté očekávají ozbrojené konflikty vyvolané úsilím států posílit svou vojenskou pozici na úkor jiných států. Další součástí moci států je ekonomický potenciál, zásoby surovin a v neposlední řadě kulturní hegemonie. Realismus nabízí i vysvětlení, proč se světu tak dlouho daří vyhýbat opravdu velkému válečnému konfliktu. Za celou studenou válku nenastala přímá ozbrojená konfrontace mezi Spojenými státy a Sovětským svazem proto, protože obě mocnosti věděly, že druhá strana vlastní jaderné zbraně a válka by skončila vzájemnou destrukcí, což by vážně poškodilo i vlastní bezpečnost té či oné strany. Někteří přední realisté jako například Kenneth Waltz, tvrdí, že rozšíření jaderných zbraní na více zemí nemusí být až tak špatná věc, protože pokud je budou mít všechny, nepoužije je ani jedna.

Podle realistů jednotliví političtí vůdci a mezinárodní instituce nejsou až tak důležití, protože stačí, když se podrobněji podíváme na jejich mocenský potenciál a místo v mezinárodním systému. Kritici tohoto názoru však na příkladech Winstona Churchilla (ve srovnání s Nevillem Chamberlainem) a Ronalda Reagana (ve srovnání s Jimmym Carterem) poukazují na rozdíl, jaký ve vztazích Spojeného království, resp. Spojených států způsobila změna vůdce a že mezinárodní instituce opravdu mohou hrát vlivnou roli v mezinárodní politice.

Replacing missing teeth is easier and more affordable than ever before with dental implants. Whether replacing a single tooth or a whole smile, dental implants can improve your appearance and your ability to enjoy your food.
Wisdom teeth removal has become a rite of passage, and although most of us will need it, no one really likes having it done. With our focus on excellent surgical technique, safety, and patient comfort, we can help you get through your surgery and back to your life as quickly and painlessly as possible.
We understand that oral surgery can be intimidating and even a little scary, so we work hard to help our patients feel comfortable before, during, and after their procedure. For anyone who may be nervous or has had a bad experience in the past, IV sedation can help make your experience a great one.
Our minimally invasive surgical techniques and cutting edge technology like PRF promote a smooth and rapid recovery following your procedure.
We use the latest techniques like guided surgery and high quality implant components for beautiful and long lasting tooth replacement options.
Growth factors we obtain from your own blood improve wound healing and shorten healing time following surgery.
We treat injuries to the teeth, bones, and soft tissues of the face.
We offer a variety of procedures to prepare for implant placement.
We expose unerupted teeth and place brackets to bring the teeth into the correct position as well as perform jaw (orthognathic) surgery for those with jaw misalignments (underbite/overbite).
