Is Ainge a Good Judge of Talent?

Share All sharing options for: Is Ainge a Good Judge of Talent?
There is a common perception that Danny Ainge is great at drafting and judging talent. On the other hand, you could make the case that Sebastian Telfair hasn't helped his reputation much. I thought it might be instructive to look back and review Danny's track record of judging talent through the years.
Of course I'll look at who he actually drafted in relation to the guys he passed on. But I also want to look at "Danny guys." This is a term used by many Celtics fans to describe players (like Robert Swift) that Danny Ainge is apparently enamored with or linked to in some way. Ainge seems to be very forthcoming about players that he likes and has been known to give draft promises and request that players pull out of workouts with other teams (hoping they would be available where he's drafting).
So here is detailed look at the year to year draft results, rumors, and stories about Danny Ainge and the draft. (click read more to see the rest)
2002: Ainge wasn't with any team at this point, but was working as an analyst. He posted a mock draft on NBA.com that revealed some of his insight into that draft.
On one hand, his comment at the bottom of the page was nearly prophetic, calling Amare Stoudemire the sleeper of the draft: "He could be the best player of the draft when all is said and done in their NBA careers." At the time, that was a bold statement because Stoudemire was just a raw high school kid with lots of athletic ability. Now he's right up there with Yao Ming as the prizes of that class.
On the other hand, Ainge also praised some players that didn't exactly turn out to be winners: "This is one of the strangest drafts," Ainge says. "The middle of the draft is pretty strong. (Jiri) Welsch, (Kareem) Rush, (Melvin) Ely, (Jared) Jeffries, (Dan) Dickau and (Juan) Dixon could all be good impact players right away." Ainge would later bring both Welsch and Dickau to the Celtics (even calling Welsch the key to the first Walker trade) but neither panned out. Of the group mentioned, Jared Jeffries may have had the best career to date and he is not much more than a defensive specialist.
2003: Having only a couple of months on the job, Danny made up his mind quickly on who he was going to draft. In fact, I remember reading Chad Ford's report that Ainge would be drafting Marcus Banks and Kendrick Perkins with the 16th and 20th picks. It turned out that Banks was coveted by the Magic at pick 15, so Ainge swung a deal with Memphis to move up to the 13th pick for Banks and down to the 27th pick to get Perkins (which is closer to where he was being slotted at the time). Bottom line, Ainge got his guys.
As it turns out, Banks had all the talent to be a top point guard, but was never able to put it all together. While he's shown brief periods of brilliance, he's mostly been inconsistent and hasn't fit well with any of his coaches. There wasn't a lot in that draft, but it should be noted that Ainge passed on players like Boris Diaw, Josh Howard, and Luke Walton (and so did a lot of other GMs). One last note, in recent years we've heard often that Ainge is a big fan of Travis Outlaw, who has shown some progress but hasn't put it all together yet.
2004: This is where the fun really started for Danny Ainge. For one thing, there were some rumors that Ainge might be willing to give up Pierce to the Bulls for Tyson Chandler and the 3rd pick, where it was reported that he liked Ben Gordon and Shaun Livingston. When that didn't work out, rumors of promises ran rampant. Ainge had 3 picks in the first round and he was doing his best to get the guys he liked the best to slip to those spots. The list of Ainge guys that might be available at the 15th pick included Robert Swift, Sebastian Telfair, and Al Jefferson. Nobody can be sure who Ainge would have taken had all three been available, but in this case it looks like it is sometimes better to be lucky than good.
Regarding Telfair, the Trail Blazers were hoping he would fall to them at the 23rd pick. However, when they found out how much Ainge liked Sebastian, they decided to use the 13th pick on him instead. We all know how that worked out in the end. Reportedly Ainge is still trying to get a hold of Robert Swift (who hasn't been healthy long enough to really show what he's got).
Ainge also picked up Delonte West and Tony Allen ahead of Kevin Martin. Both have had up and down success in Boston, struggling with injuries for long stretches at a time. Ainge also picked up Justin Reed in the 2nd round (passing on Trevor Ariza).
2005: Another interesting year where Ainge was hoping to deal Pierce for a top pick that he would have used on Chris Paul. That never materialized and instead Ainge watched Gerald Green slide all the way down to him at 18 (he was being projected by many to be a top 5 pick). Shortly after the draft, it was reported that the Celtics were relieved that the Raptors picked Joey Graham because that meant they were sure to get either Green or Danny Granger. Aside from Hakim Warrick (another project athlete) and Jarret Jack (a decent point guard), there don't seem to be many prizes that he passed on to pick Gerald. Ainge also reportedly liked Yaroslov Koralev, but he was gone by the 18th pick.
The real fun in this draft happened in the second round. Ainge told people after the draft that they had considered Ryan Gomes at the 18th spot in the first round, but when he slipped to the second round, the Celtics happily picked him up.
In addition, Orien Greene was reportedly given a promise that the Celtics would select him in with one of the two 2nd round picks. That wouldn't have been a problem except that another player Ainge liked a lot, Amir Johnson, had also slipped to the 53rd pick. Reportedly Ainge tried hard to get out of the promise, perhaps offering to give him a contract as an undrafted free agent, but the agent and player held him to his promise. Ainge selected Greene and the Pistons nabbed Johnson shortly after. Greene didn't last very long and Amir has started showing signs of a potential breakout year.
Ainge also was linked to Monta Ellis and Roko Ukic, but neither was available by the time the Celts 2nd round picks came up.
2006: The players that were projected to be available at the 7th pick (Brandon Roy, Randy Foye, Rudy Gay) all seemed to duplicate the Celtics deepest position (at the time), so Ainge decided to shed a ton of future salary and pick up Sebastian Telfair for the pick. But that didn't stop him from getting involved in the draft.
Once again, Chad Ford let us know well in advance how much Danny liked Rajon Rondo. In fact, it seems Ainge might have even selected Rondo with the 7th pick had he not traded the pick away. As Rondo slipped in the draft, Ainge saw an opportunity to pick him up for a late round future pick and made the deal to get him to Boston. Marcus Williams was selected with the next pick by the Nets (and the Knicks fans were still grumbling over the Balkman pick). Point guard's picked later included Sergio Rodriguez and Daniel Gibson. Both of whom have shown real signs of a bright future.
Ainge also traded into the second round to pick up the undersized but scrappy Leon Powe and picked up Allan Ray as an undrafted free agent.
2007: Of course this year's draft is still weeks away, and all we have to go on is rumor and quotes, but there are some things we can deduct. First of all, the worst kept secret in the draft is how much Ainge is in love with Yi Jianlian. If Yi is available at 5, I'd be shocked if he wasn't the pick.
More poorly kept secrets seem to indicate that Ainge really likes Corey Brewer and Al Thronton. Brewer is a possibility at the 5th pick but he plays the same position that Ainge didn't want to draft last year. Does this interest mean he simply likes Brewer more than he liked guys like Brandon Roy last year or is there more to it? Some have even speculated that it could signal a willingness to trade Paul Pierce. Thronton had been projected to go as low as 10th or 11th, so there was speculation that Ainge may be willing to trade down. However, if Ainge likes him enough, (he said Al "might be the second best offensive prospect in the draft") you never know.
Another interesting development is the apparent lack of interest in Mike Conley Jr., who is widely considered the best point guard prospect in the draft. He's noticeably absent from the list of prospects the Celtics are interested in (which also includes Al Horford, Jeff Green, and Brandan Wright). There is evidence that other teams may be interested in trading into that 5th spot to select Conley Jr. if he isn't taken by the Griz or Hawks.
Only time will tell if Danny will make the right call on draft night and if he was right to favor some prospects over others.
From this list, 9 players are still on the Celtics: Perkins, Jefferson, West, Allen, Green, Gomes, Rondo, Powe, and Ray.
Only Marcus Banks, Justin Reed, and Orien Greene have left the team after being drafted by Ainge.
The "Danny guys" that he has acquired via trade or free agency haven't worked out so well. Welsch and Dickau are gone and soon Telfair will be too. So maybe we should be wary of Ainge looking to add guys like Outlaw, Ellis, Ukic, Koralev, and of course Robert Swift.
Also, if history is any guide, you can be sure Ainge will consider the option of dealing Pierce for a high draft pick.
I would have to say that the best thing Ainge has been able to do is find good value at the picks he's had. Nobody is perfect, and Ainge has passed on some players that would have been better selections than the ones he ended up with. All in all, however, he has done a solid job.


Winter weather is rarely a friend to either residential homes or commercial buildings. Roofs are especially vulnerable to weather conditions like snow, ice, and high winds. As such, winter roofing is tricky business. Both installation and maintenance of roofs during the winter months has to take into account a variety of natural elements along with the propensity of bad weather to cause problems.
Winter roofing issues are common to the upper Midwest, the Northeast, and across the Great Plains of the United States. Therefore, it behooves property owners to keep an eye on their roofs from the moment the snow flies, until spring finally breaks. Identifying roofing problems in their earliest stages allows for faster repairs and mitigates the risk of further damage.
Learning to recognize winter roofing issues is key to prevention. Unfortunately, a good number of property owners do not know the signs that would indicate a problem exists. Below is a comprehensive list of common roofing issues easily observed during the winter months, along with ways to prevent them.
Condensation resulting from inadequate ventilation is one of the most common winter roofing issues that goes unrecognized by property owners. Condensation is caused by warm interior air meeting the cold underside of a roof exposed to winter temperatures. It can lead to a musty smell along with the growth of mold and mildew.
The most effective way to prevent roof condensation is to properly vent the roof. Installing ventilation allows for maximum airflow. It fights condensation by reducing the amount of warm air that comes in contact with the cold roof.
Ice dams are caused by temperature variations. An ice dam forms when top portions of the roof are warm enough to melt accumulated snow while lower portions of the roof remain below freezing. Water runs down the roof and eventually freezes, forming an ice dam where the edge of the roof meets the gutter system.
Preventing ice dams is a matter of ventilating the roof and increasing insulation in order to prevent upper portions of the roof from getting too warm. Insulation should not be packed tightly against the roof though, as this limits airflow and encourages condensation.
Icicles form when water from melted snow runs down the roof and begins to drip from the gutters. During its descent, temperatures are just cold enough to freeze the water. Icicles form and, if the problem is not corrected, continue to grow in length.
Icicles can be prevented by employing the same ventilation and insulating practices along with keeping gutters clear of leaves and other debris during the fall. Removing snow and ice from the edges of the roof using a snow rake with a long handle also helps.
Roof flashing consists of all those aluminum pieces around chimneys, vents, pipes, and roof edges. Flashing is designed to bridge the gaps between roofing materials and exposed subsurfaces in order to keep moisture out. It is vulnerable to high winds and ice formation.
Flashing leaks are common in the winter due to the freeze-thaw process. Flashing is also vulnerable when age-related corrosion sets in. Preventing flashing leaks during the winter requires inspecting and making repairs before winter, ice and wind arrive.
Both strong winds and severe weather negatively affect roofing in the winter. Strong winds can pull up or peel back shingles; they can damage flashing; they can drive moisture into roof vents. Unfortunately, there's not much property owners can do to prevent wind damage and the natural forces of mother nature. The best course of action is to anticipate severe weather so that you're prepared to deal with its eventual arrival.
Roofing in winter weather is always subject to natural surroundings. For example, a lot covered with numerous tall trees is one on which tree limbs pose yet another risk to roofing materials. Tree limbs can scrape the gritty surface off asphalt shingles; they can pull shingles up and allow moisture underneath. Heavy tree limbs falling from a good distance can even pierce roofing materials.
Preventing tree limb damage is as easy as trimming trees during the summer and autumn. Any limbs within 6 feet of the roof should be trimmed accordingly.
A less obvious winter roofing problem is found in squirrels and rats looking for a way in. Just a small gap in any area of the roof is an open invitation for these critters to make themselves at home. If a gap is present but not big enough for entry, squirrels and rats will have no problem gnawing away until they gain entry.
Keeping critters out of attic spaces requires inspecting the roof and sealing up all possible points of entry. This is something best done before winter weather arrives.
Unless you are experienced in winter roofing, it is best to call a professional roofing contractor to address the issues listed above. Roofing is dangerous throughout the year, but winter weather makes it even more so. A professional roofer has the knowledge and experience to safely address winter roof issues with minimal risk.

Orleans /ɔːrˈliːnz/ is a town in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, which is co-extensive with Cape Cod. The population was 5,890 at the 2010 census.[1] For geographic and demographic information on the census-designated place Orleans, please see the article Orleans (CDP), Massachusetts. Orleans, MA Homes for Sale
Orleans was first settled in 1693 by Pilgrims from the Plymouth Colony who were dissatisfied with the poor soil and small tracts of land granted to them. Originally the southern parish of neighboring Eastham, Orleans was officially incorporated in 1797. Orleans was named in honor of Louis Philippe II, Duke of Orléans, in recognition of France's support for the 13 colonies during the American Revolution, and because the town did not want an English name, as they had been captured twice by the British during the war. Orleans, MA Homes for Sale
Early history, like much of the Cape, revolved around fishing, whaling and agriculture. As the fishing industry grew, salt works sprang up in the town to help preserve the catches. Orleans, MA Homes for Sale However, the town's growth helped deplete the town of lumber, a situation that did not begin to be remedied until the railroad came and brought lumber from the mainland in the mid-to-late 19th century. The rail also helped bring tourism to the town. In 1898, the French Cable Company built a 3,200-mile-long (5,100 km) transatlantic cable to Orleans, which operated from the French Cable Station. Orleans, MA Homes for Sale
On the morning of 21 July 1918 – during the last year of the First World War – the German submarine U-156, Captained by Richard Feldt, surfaced three miles off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and began to shell the tugboat "Perth Amboy" and the four barges in her tow. A handful of the shells fired by the U-boat's two deck guns struck Nauset Beach, giving the town of Orleans the distinction of being the first, and only, spot in the United States to receive fire from the enemy during the First World War. The town's tourism industry was helped in 1961 with the creation of the Cape Cod National Seashore by President John F. Kennedy. Orleans, MA Homes for Sale

Calibration: Meeting the Challenges of High-Frequency Power Measurement
Clive Davis, European Marketing Manager for Test & Measurement at Yokogawa Europe
Erik Kroon, Manager European Standards Laboratorium at Yokogawa Europe
As more and more innovation focuses on energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy resources, engineers are increasingly demanding accuracy and precision from their power measurements. At the same time, new standards such as IEC62301 Ed2.0 and EN50564:2011, covering standby power consumption, and the SPEC guidelines, covering power consumption in data centres, demand more precise and accurate testing to ensure compliance.
To meet these challenges, R&D teams are coming to terms with the need for new levels of precision in power measurement, but these levels of precision can only be achieved if the measuring instruments are properly calibrated with reference to national and international standards.
Regular calibration by a laboratory, which can provide very low measurement uncertainties at the specific measurement points applicable to individual users, should enable instrument makers and their customers to have confidence in their test results.
However, with power measurements in particular, the situation is not so clear cut – to the extent that the accuracy figures quoted in manufacturers' specifications – and indeed some of the parameters listed in calibration certificates issued by well-established test houses – can be meaningless when taken out of context.
The need for high-frequency power measurement
One key area which is often neglected in traditional specifications is that of power measurements at high frequencies. Traditionally, AC power meters are calibrated at frequencies of 50-60 440 Hz. Nowadays, however, there is a demand for power measurement at high frequencies on devices such as switch-mode power supplies, electronic lighting ballasts, soft starters in motor controls and frequency converters in traction applications.
Calibration of high-frequency power has lagged behind the development of power meters to address these applications, and few national laboratories can provide traceability up to 100 kHz: the frequency at which instruments have to be calibrated to provide accurate results in these application sectors.
There are a number of other parameters involved in power measurements that determine the performance of an instrument in a particular application. It is no longer sufficient merely to list voltage and current specifications: today's power environment needs to address variables such as phase shift, power factor and the effects of distorted waveforms.
It is also important to calibrate the instrument under the right conditions. Many test houses still use pure sine waves at only 50 Hz to calibrate power meters, which renders the results virtually useless for users carrying out tests under "real world" conditions.
It is therefore important for users of power measuring instruments to look at the actual "calibrated" performance of different manufacturers' products rather than just comparing specifications. This is the key thinking behind Yokogawa's policy of having its own European Standards Laboratory with minimal uncertainties and capabilities which are almost second to none: as confirmed by the fact that it has become the world's first non-governmental facility to receive full ISO17025 accreditation for power measurements at up to 100 kHz.
What is calibration?
"Calibration" can be defined as the comparison of an instrument's performance with a standard of known accuracy.
No measurement is ever correct. There is always an unknown, finite, non-zero difference between a measured value and the corresponding "true" value. In other words, a user can never be 100% sure that an instrument is operating within its specified tolerance limits.
However, there are steps that can be taken to minimise the possibility of a measurement falling outside specified tolerance or uncertainty bands. Regular traceable calibration is a method for gaining quantifiable confidence in a measurement system by comparing the instrument's performance to a standard of known accuracy.
However, all laboratory standards and even national standards have uncertainties of measurement; hence it is difficult to be 100% confident that an instrument is operating within its stated tolerance limits.
It is important to understand the difference between "calibration" and "adjustment". Calibration is the comparison of a measuring instrument (an unknown) against an equal or better standard. A standard in a measurement is therefore the reference.
Instruments are adjusted initially at the factory to indicate a value that is as close as possible to the reference value. The uncertainties of the reference standard used in the adjustment process will also dictate the confidence that the indicated value is "correct".
As the instrument ages, the indicated value may drift due to environmental factors (temperature, humidity, oxidation, loading etc.) which will also be dependent on the quality of its design and manufacture. To ensure that the instrument continues to operate within the manufacturer's tolerances, the instrument should be compared to the reference value on a regular basis (usually annually). If necessary, the instrument can then be re-adjusted.
If there is no appreciable change in the calibrated results, this means that the instrument's design is inherently highly stable. In this case, there is no need to adjust it, and the user can also rely on the fact that the unit will exhibit the same stability on a day-by-day basis.
It goes without saying that all instruments should be calibrated on a regular basis. Not calibrating carries a number of costs and risks:
In production/acceptance testing, users may encounter false passes or (equally undesirable) false failures.
In an engineering laboratory, inaccurate measurements can distort the findings.
Contractual requirements may inadvertently fail to be met
Quality issues may result in customer dissatisfaction or even product recalls and rework.
Yokogawa's calibration capabilities
As indicated above, Yokogawa's European Calibration Laboratory has become the world's first non-governmental facility to receive full ISO17025 Accreditation for power measurements at up to 100 kHz. This is in addition to its established capability for providing high-accuracy calibration at 50 Hz, especially at very low power factors (down to 0.0001) and at high currents.
At the heart of the laboratory is a special calibration system with the capability to calibrate power up to 100 kHz (Figure 1). Housed in a climate-controlled environment (23.0 ± 1.0)°C, the system is able to calibrate voltage, current, DC power, AC power, frequency and motor functions, all under fully automatic control.
Figure 1: Traceability overview
The system consists of two parts, a signal generator section and a reference measuring unit. Those two parts are separated by a metal shield in order to prevent the heat generated by the signal sources from affecting the reference meters. Different sources are used to generate the calibration signal because a single source is not sufficient to generate all the signals required. Instead, multiplexers are used to select the sources needed for any particular measurement. Similarly, different reference power meters are selected via a multiplexer. This allows the selection of the best reference power meters for high-current, low-current or low-voltage calibrations. The reference power meters are from Yokogawa and are special models modified with aged components and firmware to enhance the resolution. They have an excellent stability and performance.
The power meter under calibration is connected via a multiplexer on the calibration system. Each element of the power meter under calibration is calibrated separately. A power meter with mixed inputs is easily calibrated. Extra instruments are added to the calibration system to calibrate any additional options of the power meter such as the motor function and analogue output.
The system is designed to minimise effects such as capacitive leakage and crosstalk, with special attention given to the wiring harness and multiplexers. For voltage, twisted and screened coaxial cables are used, while current uses coaxial cabling. The multiplexers use special relays to avoid leakage and crosstalk. The influence of the wiring harness is now kept to a minimum. With a worst-case measurements using 100 V at 100 kHz, the crosstalk suppression to the current channels is better than -93 dB. For mixed-input units, every element is calibrated separately to minimise the effects of loading.
The in-house developed software makes this system very flexible. A calibration is normally based on the Yokogawa Quality Inspection Standards (QIS). If the QIS is passed, it is demonstrated that the measured values are within specifications. However, on request of the customer, it is possible to calibrate additional points within our capability. The system is able to communicate with the power meter under calibration by GPIB, RS232, USB or Ethernet.
When the calibration is finished, the results are used to generate the calibration certificate.
A typical calibration of a power meter takes a few hours, depending on the number of elements. For each element, tests are made at about 45 voltage calibration points, 65 current calibration points and 78 power calibration points. Using all those points the voltage gain, voltage linearity, voltage flatness, current gain, current linearity, current flatness, power gain, power linearity, power flatness, power factor and frequency are calibrated at DC and from 10 Hz to 100 kHz. This includes also the external current sensor if applicable. A total of about 180 calibrations are done for each element. The system is also able to calibrate the motor function by using analogue or pulse shape signals. A 30-channel multiplexer measurement system is installed to measure the analogue output of the power meter.
The calibration of the system itself is also carried out in the European standards laboratory, and includes the effect of the multiplexers and wiring harness to remove the unknown uncertainty.
Traceability for power is based on values for voltage, current and phase (Figure 1). Using these units, it is possible to calculate power by the equation:
which is valid only for sine waves, so that special attention has to be taken into account for the harmonic distortions of the generated signals.
The measurement of voltage is straightforward using a digital multimeter. However, using a digital multimeter to measure the current is limited due to the frequency capability and uncertainty, and therefore two different options are used. If the current frequency is 50 to 60 Hz, an electronic compensated current transformer (ECCT) is used to measure the current, but if the frequency is higher current shunts have to be used for the other frequencies. Yokogawa has built its own current shunts to measure from 1 mA up to 10 A at up to 100 kHz with a maximum AC/DC difference of 3 parts in a million at 100 kHz. Measuring the voltage over the shunt allows the current to be calculated.
To obtain the phase, a phase measurement device based on a high-speed, high-resolution digitiser is used. The digitiser is equipped with differential inputs to avoid ground loops. The biggest uncertainty here is the phase angle deviation of the current shunts, which is corrected by calibrating the shunt at different frequencies. The phase measurements device is calibrated via a phase standard, which in turn is calibrated using self-calibrating phase bridges.
This setup enables power to be made traceable at up to 100 kHz.
To confirm the calibration setup, a Yokogawa WT3000 power analyser was calibrated by Yokogawa, and then sent to the national Standards Laboratory of Sweden (SP). At SP they also calibrated the Yokogawa WT3000 at the same points which verified the results (Figure 2).
Figure 2: Power Comparison with SP
The importance of accreditation
The familiar ISO 9001 standard aims at confirming the traceability of a measurement but does not define how the measurement is carried out. Laboratories that are accredited to ISO 17025 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories), however, have demonstrated that they are technically competent and able to produce precise and accurate calibration measurements. Figure 3 shows an ISO 17025 certificate complete with measurement uncertainties, which confirms that the power meter is truly much more accurate than its specification. There is no guarantee that the measurements on an ISO9001 certificate are correct.
Figure 3: Differences between the ISO9001 and ISO17025 Certificates
Yokogawa's European Calibration Laboratory is the only industrial (i.e. non-government or national) organisation to offer traceability up to 100 kHz, and thus is the only power meter manufacturer which can directly prove the performance of its own instruments. Only a Yokogawa Calibration Certificate gives the user trust in their instrument's measurements.
ISO17025 accreditation also reflects the attention paid to the design of the input circuits of Yokogawa's precision power analysers, with an emphasis on wideband, high-linearity characteristics that make them the world's most accurate instruments in their class (Figure 4).

Everyone thought IG of prisons was a punishment posting
...but in my heart, I knew it was the right one for me. I have always been reform-oriented in nature

New Delhi,ISSUE DATE: Jan 4, 2021 | UPDATED: Dec 26, 2020 23:08 IST
Trailblazer Puducherry lieutenant governor Kiran Bedi
From being the first woman to serve as an officer in the Indian Police Service (IPS) to becoming the lieutenant governor of Puducherry, Kiran Bedi is an institution. In the course of her career, she has ushered in prison reforms, both in India and abroad, and set a template for humanitarian policing. She has a well-earned reputation for fearlessness, applying the law in a country where the powerful are frequently able to circumvent it. Through her career, she has showed millions of young women that women can be as just as good, if not better, at law enforcement than men.
Looking back, she recalls at least three significant turning points that shaped her. One of these, she says, took place when she was eight or nine years old. One day, when Bedi was sitting with her family, a woman came to her father, Prakash Peshawaria, asking for help, saying that her husband had been unjustly arrested. Agreeing to help, he immediately called the SSP (senior superintendent of police) of Amritsar and asked him to meet with the woman and look into the matter. Bedi says her father's words were: "Please listen to her and see that no injustice is done to her." She also notes that he did not say "let [the woman's husband] go free", this sent several messages to the young Bedi. "It was my first introduction to the police [system]," she says, "[and showed me] that it can undo injustice. It also introduced me to the power of influence to undo injustice. My father was also very [quick] to respond, it's the same pattern for me now." This independent sense of authority and spirited response to situations has served Bedi in good stead, today, it has allowed her to carve an independent space for herself as the lieutenant governor of Puducherry above the political fray.

The next turning point for her came at the impressionable age of 12. Accompanying her parents to weddings in those days, she recalls that the dowry given by the girl's family would often be on full display, she remembers her father telling her that girls who were not self-reliant had to enter marriage with a dowry. "I rejected the idea, and told my father I didn't want that. I started to hate the concept of dowry, I was raised to be self-reliant, and decided I would not let that happen in my life. When I got married, my husband and I paid for the wedding reception [ourselves]."
This sense of self-reliance and discipline also manifested in her sporting career, in fact, on the day of her own reception, Bedi attended the ceremony only after playing a match. She was so devoted to tennis, one of her first passions, that she eventually became a national junior champion. This led to another turning point, when she was 16. As a national champion, she expected that she would be offered a chance to represent India at Wimbledon; despite her merit, she was overlooked. "That convinced me to build a career in academics," she tells india today at an interview in Puducherry's Raj Bhawan. "It was the rule at the time that the national junior champion gets [a chance to play at] Wimbledon, but I was denied the [opportunity]. That was a defining moment for me, I decided that I would rise through academic merit."
In the long run, Bedi's academic excellence, spirit of service and athletic sense of discipline groomed her for what lay ahead. After joining the IPS, she served in several areas, notably in the northeast. Then, in 1993, when she was up for a posting in Delhi, she was offered the job of Inspector General (IG) of Prisons. "It was a punishment posting," she says. "Nobody wanted it. Today, it's equivalent to a Commissioner of Police; in those days, everyone asked me why I was [taking it]. I knew I was going to the right place. I am a corrector, a reformer, a teacher and a sociologist at heart."
About a year after taking up the post, the prison reforms Bedi introduced earned her the prestigious Magsaysay award, in 1994. "It was the first time that the peace award had gone to a police officer," she says with a smile. Her reforms opened a new chapter in policing in India, one that was more humane and collaborative. The 'punishment posting' also led her onto the global stage, in 2003, she became the first woman to hold the post of civilian police advisor in the United Nations' department of peacekeeping operations, under then-secretary general Kofi Annan. "It made me a global cop," says Bedi, in that capacity, she played a role in reforming police systems in several countries, including Sudan, Congo, Cyprus and Kosovo, among others.
Even at 71, Bedi's energy is inspiring, she does morning motivation bulletins on Instagram, and reads her newspapers while walking on a treadmill. Dressed in her trademark salwar and shirt-collared kurta, she says with a wide smile, "I also see my current role as lieutenant governor as a turning point in my life." One can only wait and watch to see where this one leads her to.

The Farallon Islands off the coast of California are prime habitat for the great white shark. QUEST ventures to these shark-infested waters and discovers that the creature of our imaginations may not be the monster we think it is. Worldwide sharks are now threatened due to extreme overfishing to satisfy the shark fin trade. See why scientists are now tracking the movements of these magnificent animals in hopes of protecting them.
Learn more about sharks and this video with the Producer's Notes.
Governor Jerry Brown Signed Assembly Bill 376 into Law Today, Making California the Largest State to Ban Shark Fins.
Sacramento, California – 07 October 2011 – Today, the state of California enacted a legislative ban on shark fins, through the adoption of Assembly Bill 376 (authored by Paul Fong and Jared Huffman). The bill was signed by Gov. Jerry Brown into law today. The Center for Oceanic Awareness, Research, and Education (COARE), applauds the state of California for joining them in their work to actively address shark conservation issues, and their attempts to reduce shark fin consumption in the U.S. and worldwide.
California is one of the largest sources of demand for shark fin outside Asia and is a major entry for shark fin distribution in the United States. Every year, fins from up to 73 million sharks are used for shark fin soup, a dish traditionally served at Chinese weddings and banquets. This soup has grown in popularity, increasing consumer demand for shark fins and contributing to the decimation of shark populations worldwide as millions of sharks are killed every month, many for their fins alone. As a result of these fishing pressures, one-third of shark species are already threatened with extinction.
"Sharks have shaped ocean ecosystems for more than 400 million years, but we've pushed many of them to the brink of extinction just in our lifetimes. This new law represents a much needed shift in the way we treat our ocean's fragile resources, said Alexandra Cousteau, founder of Blue Legacy and granddaughter of conservation pioneer Jacques-Yves Cousteau.
Assembly Bill (AB) 376 was introduced to the California State Assembly on 14 February 2011 by Assembly-members Paul Fong (D-Cupertino) and Jared Huffman (D-San Rafael), and subsequently passed the Assembly on 23 May 2011 with a vote of 65-8 and the State Senate on 06 September 2011 with a vote of 25-9.
California's ban complements similar legislation recently signed into law by Washington Governor Chris Gregoire and Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber. California's ban is also preceded by legislative bans already adopted by the State of Hawai'i, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), Fiji, and the Bahamas.

APC Zamfara a sinking ship
December 8, 2021 Editorial IV Letters 0
It has been observed that popularity rather than credibility has now become the virtue in Nigeria's democracy. This is simply because the citizens believe that only those in the corridors of power can call the shots.
Politics is said to be a game of number, therefore, only those who have the highest number of supporters can rule whether they are capable or not, while those with less people will be left in the lurch.
It doesn't matter if there was an agreement in the first place or not, be it written or oral, between Governor Matawalle Maraduna of Zamfara state and the All Progressives Congress, APC, that they'll make the 2019 state governorship election to be in his favour being the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, flag bearer.
This is because APC didn't conduct genuine primary election, and in return, he'll leave PDP to APC, as Matawalle and his principal officers have taken that path. Instead, my focus is on the appointment of Senator Hassan Nasiha representing Zamfara central to lead the APC in the state as the caretaker chairman.
Alhough I've no idea why the presidency and the APC national caretaker chairman, Governor Mai Mala-Buni of Yobe state took that decision, but I'm optimistic that the decision is linked with Matawalle's court verdict after the 2019 general elections.
Furthermore, it is a fact that Nasiha has never been an APC member talkless of having an insight on how APC functions, but suddenly he is now controlling the APC in Zamfara state.
The APC national caretaker chairman should understand that the party's ship will sink sooner than later, because it doesn't have a commander that will control the sailors, and if care is not taken, APC will lose Zamfara state in the upcoming general elections, even though Nasiha is just a caretaker chairman as someone else will takeover the seat after the party's congress but the earlier the better.
APC supporters and the general public should get it clear that I'm not in anyway envious of the newly appointed APC Zamfara state caretaker chairman, but rather saying how incompetent he's to lead APC in the state.
As we all know every problem has a solution, so it's with the APC Zamfara state chairmanship saga.
Moreover, for an organisation to progress regardless of its main objective, those in the corridors of power must sacrifice their personal interest.
If truly Governor Matawalle and his counterpart of Yobe state want APC in Zamfara state to reach its zenith, they must think outside the box and bring someone who has been in the party and is selfless and experienced, one who has represented the party at the national level, to steer the party's affairs. Only this can stop the APC ship from sinking.

Downloading and Using eBooks from NAP
An ebook is one of two file formats that are intended to be used with e-reader devices and apps such as Amazon Kindle or Apple iBooks.
Why is an eBook better than a PDF?
A PDF is a digital representation of the print book, so while it can be loaded into most e-reader programs, it doesn't allow for resizable text or advanced, interactive functionality. The eBook is optimized for e-reader devices and apps, which means that it offers a much better digital reading experience than a PDF, including resizable text and interactive features (when available).

Coral reef declines have been recorded for all major tropical ocean basins since the 1980s, averaging approximately 30-50% reductions in reef cover globally. These losses are a result of numerous problems, including habitat destruction, pollution, overfishing, disease, and climate change. Greenhouse gas emissions and the associated increases in ocean temperature and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations have been implicated in increased reports of coral bleaching, disease outbreaks, and ocean acidification (OA). For the hundreds of millions of people who depend on reefs for food or livelihoods, the thousands of communities that depend on reefs for wave protection, the people whose cultural practices are tied to reef resources, and the many economies that depend on reefs for fisheries or tourism, the health and maintenance of this major global ecosystem is crucial.
A growing body of research on coral physiology, ecology, molecular biology, and responses to stress has revealed potential tools to increase coral resilience. Some of this knowledge is poised to provide practical interventions in the short-term, whereas other discoveries are poised to facilitate research that may later open the doors to additional interventions. A Research Review of Interventions to Increase the Persistence and Resilience of Coral Reefs reviews the state of science on genetic, ecological, and environmental interventions meant to enhance the persistence and resilience of coral reefs. The complex nature of corals and their associated microbiome lends itself to a wide range of possible approaches. This first report provides a summary of currently available information on the range of interventions present in the scientific literature and provides a basis for the forthcoming final report.

Q: Java spring Junit Transaction won't rollback database I want to rollback database after each test but it doesn't work, I've tried different types of Transaction management configs.
The createNewItem method object is still showing on other tests.
The goal of the rollback is to have the have exacly the same database objects and expected new ids on every test
ContextConfiguration:
 @Configuration
 @EnableJpaRepositories("se.system.repository")
 @EnableTransactionManagement
 public class ContextConfiguration{

@Bean(name = "hsqldb")
public DataSource InMemoryDataSource() {
    EmbeddedDatabaseBuilder builder = new EmbeddedDatabaseBuilder();
    EmbeddedDatabase database = builder.setType(EmbeddedDatabaseType.HSQL)
            .addScript("classpath:se/system/sql/create-db.sql")
            .addScript("classpath:se/system/sql/insert-data.sql").build();

    return database;
}

@Bean
public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(EntityManagerFactory factory) {
    return new JpaTransactionManager(factory);
}

@Bean
public JpaVendorAdapter jpaVendorAdapter() {

    HibernateJpaVendorAdapter adapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
    adapter.setDatabase(Database.HSQL);
    adapter.setShowSql(false);
    adapter.setGenerateDdl(false);
    return adapter;
}

@Bean
public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() {

    LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean factory = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
    factory.setDataSource(InMemoryDataSource());
    factory.setJpaVendorAdapter(jpaVendorAdapter());
    factory.setPackagesToScan("se.system.model");
    return factory;
}

Junit test with hsqldb:
 @RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
 @ContextConfiguration(classes = {ContextConfiguration.class })
 @TestExecutionListeners
 @Transactional
 public class ServiceTest {

@Rule
public ExpectedException thrown = ExpectedException.none();

private static Service service;

private static AnnotationConfigApplicationContext context;

@BeforeClass
public static void setup() {
    context = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext();
    context.register(ContextConfiguration.class);
    context.scan("se.system");
    context.refresh();
    Service = context.getBean(Service.class);
}

@Test
public void createNewItem() {

    System.out.println(((List<Item>) service.getAllitem()).size());
    Item item = Service
            .saveOrUpdateItem(new Item("Title", "Description"));
    System.out.println(Item);
    assertEquals(new Long(4L), Item.getId());
}

A: That's how I usually annotate my test classes:
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(classes = { JPAUnitTestConfiguration.class })
@Transactional //rollback if exception occurs during test method
@TransactionConfiguration(defaultRollback = true) //rollback at end of method
@DirtiesContext(classMode = ClassMode.AFTER_EACH_TEST_METHOD)
public class FooBarTest {
}

Add @TransactionConfiguration(defaultRollback = true) to your test class.

        type = FilterType.ASSIGNABLE_TYPE))
public class JPAUnitTestConfiguration extends JPAConfiguration {

    @Bean

Africa, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Horn of Africa
Today could be critical in resolving the Tigray war
Date: 20/01/2022Author: Martin Plaut 1 Comment
It is far too early to be sure, but there are some signs that diplomacy could be making some progress in ending the Tigray war.
This statement from the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres is worth reading with care.
The United Nations secretary-general said Wednesday he was delighted to hear "there is now a demonstrable effort to make peace" in Ethiopia after more than 14 months of war, but he gave no details.
Antonio Guterres' statement came after a call with African Union envoy Olusegun Obasanjo following the envoy's latest visit to Addis Ababa and the capital of Ethiopia's embattled Tigray region.
Guterres said Obasanjo "expressed optimism that there is now a real opportunity for political and diplomatic resolution of the conflict." His statement did not describe efforts by Ethiopia's government and the rival Tigray forces.
Obasanjo's spokesman, the spokeswoman for Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and the Tigray forces spokesman didn't immediately respond to questions.
A new U.S. envoy for the Horn of Africa, Ambassador David Satterfield, is set to meet with Ethiopian officials on Thursday.
David Satterfield and Assistant Secretary of State Molly Phee are at the end of a trip that took them to Saudi Arabia and Sudan.
Little has been released about their negotiations, but it could be that they have asked the Saudis to use their good offices with Eritrea and Ethiopia to try to end the war in Tigray.
Let us not forget that the Eritrea-Ethiopia peace deal was signed in Saudi Arabia in 2018.
At the same time there are indications that point in the opposite direction.
There are reports of yet more drone attacks on the Tigrayan capital, Mekelle and unconfirmed reports of fighting in western Tigray.
Plus belligerent remarks by the Ethiopian military:
"Finishing chapter one literally means there is chapter two. But Mekelle…Tigray is the territory of Ethiopia. No one will stop us; we will enter, we will destroy the enemy. There is nothing controversial about it," Gen. Abebaw Tadesse, Deputy Army Chief of Staff.

Will it be more war, or a chance for peace? It's too early to know, but the waiting may soon be over.

His reply to this was that he did perform illusions- and he did it right up close!! And he also could have added that he did it extremely well!!
Yes, I do like stage magic. There are indeed a good number of excellent performers. However, for me, close up magic has always been the 'purest' and the most impressive form of magic entertainment. It is the 'Holy Grail'. To see someone perform logic defying feats with productions, vanishes, and changes, so close up is extremely powerful. This is reflected in people's comments, and their expressions!!
The other powerful aspect of close-up magic is that it is a highly sociable, and interactive, form of entertainment.

Q: Get Columns Names of Table How I can Get  for a specific Table its columns Names ?
I tried this :
SELECT  column_name
FROM USER_TAB_COLUMNS
WHERE table_name = 'x' ;

But it doesn't work.

A: Try this :
SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'TABLENAME'

Hope this helps.
EDIT :
The Oracle equivalent for information_schema.COLUMNS is USER_TAB_COLS for tables owned by the current user, ALL_TAB_COLS or DBA_TAB_COLS for tables owned by all users.
Tablespace is not equivalent to a schema, neither do you have to provide the tablespace name.
Providing the schema/username would be of use if you want to query ALL_TAB_COLS or DBA_TAB_COLS for columns OF tables owned by a specific user. in your case, I'd imagine the query would look something like:
String sqlStr= "
SELECT column_name
FROM   all_tab_cols
WHERE  table_name = 'users'
       AND owner = ' || +_db+ || '
       AND column_name NOT IN ( 'password', 'version', 'id' )
"

Note that with this approach, you risk SQL injection.
Source : Oracle query to fetch column names

A: String comparisons in Oracle are case sensitive by default, and table and column names are upper case by default, so you need to make sure that the capitalization of the table name you are searching for matches the the way it's stored in the database, so unless your table was named with mixed case or all lower case try making sure your string is all upper case.
SELECT column_name from USER_TAB_COLUMNS
 WHERE table_name = 'X'; -- not 'x'

Additionally, if you don't own the table, then you need to use either ALL_TAB_COLUMNS or DBA_TAB_COLUMNS instead of USER_TAB_COLUMNS since USER_TAB_COLUMNS only lists details for tables owned by your current schema.

A: You can just describe the table:
desc x;

A: Try to queryUSER_TAB_COLUMNS view
SELECT  column_name
FROM USER_TAB_COLUMNS
WHERE table_name = 'TABLE_NAME'


I recently was trying out different return keys (UIReturnKeyType) for the default keyboard in iOS 7, looking for a fitting text to display for calculating taxi fares from one location to another. Since the app is for the German market, I needed to find out the text translations in German. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the translations anywhere, so I had to try out the different variations myself and see what translation appeared. In doing so I also noticed (or rather, my boss noticed) that the different return key styles don't all have the same color. And of course, neither the texts nor the colors can be individually chosen. I decided to make some screenshots and collect details about the different texts and colors.
All of the button types are greyed out (with a grey text label) when no text has been entered.
When text has been entered, all buttons except for UIReturnKeyDefault and UIReturnKeyNext become blue (with a white text label).
Both UIReturnKeyDefault and UIReturnKeyNext are grey with a black text label when text has been entered.

One Cut Too Deep: Why Kids Take Selfies Of Self-harm?
Posted Date: November 06, 2014
Posted in Parenting Challenges > Drug abuse
A large number of youngsters in the United Kingdom (UK) are posting selfies of self-harm in social networking sites due to the rise in popularity of apps that include Instagram and Snapchat.
According to mental health charities, the disturbing trend of sharing self-harm pictures is gaining ground because photo sharing sites are easy to access through smartphones.
It was also revealed that teenagers are tilting towards this trend because they genuinely feel they have 'no one else to turn to'. This self-harm culture has been identified by the social media and later picked up by the mainstream media channels. There are many facets to this hideous culture and some are discussed below in this article.
From Extreme To Mainstream
In the UK, the issue was raised by Independent Television's (ITV) This Morning in order to garner support against the latest self-harm trend. Official statistics were shared on the program that showed that the number of teenagers getting admitted to hospital because of self-harm has risen by 10 percent.
Franki Eaton (25), who appeared on the show, said that she has been self-harming for 11 long years. She told the hosts of the show that she saw self-harm as a form of "release" and that the pain from the injuries "shocked" her put of feeling low.
A Worrying Phenomenon
Francis Burrows, operations director of the charity Mindfull, while speaking to MailOnline said that apps such as Instagram and Snapchat has provided the platform for self-harm selfies to emerge as a worrying trend.
"And these images can have a profound effect on people. They see what other people have done and it gives them validation to do the same," Burrows said.
Commenting on the high that self-harm provides to teenagers, Burrows said, "Most people look at these images and are shocked – but for these young people it can become competitive." In case you are not aware of what happens next, this is where all hell breaks loose.
Sinister Undertones
The selfie culture might come across as a harmless teenage obsession, but there is more to this phenomenon than meets the eye.
Teenagers engage in this practice in order to get validation from the larger peer group and to become an integral part of the shady online proceedings.
In this regard, Burrows said, "Sadly, this can lead to posts encouraging them to harm themselves even more. Schools are coming to us saying they have a problem but don't know how to address it."
The biggest problem with this culture has been aptly recognized by Burrows, who said about this teenage trend, "But it can go the other way, too, where they are bullied or trolled because of their pictures. This then turns into a vicious cycle where they self-harm even more."
Health experts have found out that self-harm is common among children who are facing exam problems, bullying, disturbed family life, and are suffering from depression. Above all, teens adopt self-harm selfie culture to gain importance and position among the large tribe of self-harming children from around the world.

I'm Christina Sanchez and I am excited to be joining B&V for a seven-month academic internship. I was born and raised in Denver, Colorado and spent most of my childhood exploring the outdoors and soaking up the amazing landscapes in and around my beautiful state. People are usually surprised when I tell them I've lived in Denver my entire life but have never skied; but that's because all my free time was spent traveling with my family to as many areas of the US we could get our hands on, especially national parks. While my friends were hitting the slopes, I was camping in the Rockies, spelunking through Mammoth Caves, snorkeling in Kauai, or hiking through Arches.
When I wasn't soaking up the outdoors, I was devouring any novel I could get my hands on. My natural curiosity as a child meant that I was not content to simply observe that which already exists, but imagine what else could be. Novels such as the Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien, or the Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini were my constant companions and always kept me searching for more from the world.
This is one of the reasons I decided to pursue a career in architecture. In the words of Bjarke Ingels, "Architecture is about trying to make the world a little more like our dreams." The idea of being able to make the world a little more wondrous appealed to me instantly, so I sought further education at Kansas State University's College of Architecture and Design. The rest, as they say, is history.
Though Kansas is a far cry from Colorado, the people I've met and the things I've learned have all made an amazing impact on my life. These past few years, I've learned that my imagination has the ability not only to make the world more wondrous but to make it better overall. As I've grown as a designer, I've become increasingly interested in how architecture can actively impact and improve lives and have become involved in multiple clubs such as the student branch of the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) and the National Organization for Minority Architects (NOMAS). Participating in national design competitions with each club, I've been able to take my knowledge of architecture beyond the classroom and focus in on how it can act as a catalyst for change, both environmentally and socially.
My study abroad in Italy last semester added to this interest by teaching me a multitude of valuable lessons from one of the oldest and most impactful civilizations in the world. Based out of Orvieto, Italy, my class and I were fortunate enough to be given a guided tour of a different Italian city every Friday by a local archeologist and art historian.
After weekends spent studying, observing, sketching, and (admittedly) Instagramming in the field, we would convene during the week to dissect what we had learned and determine how it impacted our future careers, as well as our own lives. In the end, I finished the study abroad with a healthy dose of humility and a much deeper understanding of architecture's ability to truly impact the world around it.
This leads me to where I am today. Required by my college to complete an academic internship before I return for my final year of graduate school (my program is a five-year master's degree), I decided to use this as an opportunity for growth as much as any of my other previous experiences. The Pacific Northwest is one of the places I've never had the fortune of visiting before and presents an exciting prospect for discovering a new culture and environment to learn from. The bustling urbanism of Seattle also seemed like the perfect way to balance my suburban experiences in Denver and my rural experiences in Kansas.
Being able to work for Board & Vellum has simply been icing on the cake. In my brief time here, I've already grown immensely as a person and a designer and have come to recognize the truly unique and innovative culture of the firm. I look forward to coming to work every day and I'm so thankful to have this experience. All that's left to say, is that I'm excited to work with you in the future and I can't wait to see where this new journey takes me next!

No participation in panchayat polls, Dr. Farooq Abdhullah regrets
By Parveen Kumar on August 31, 2021 • ( Leave a comment )
former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah/PTI
Srinagar, Aug 31: National Conference president and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah Tuesday expressed regret that his party didn't participate in the 2018 panchayat polls.
The National Conference had not participated in the panchayat polls held in September 2018 and also boycotted the Block Development Council (BDC) polls held in 2019 after the abrogation of Jammu and Kashmir's special status.
Speaking at the parliamentary outreach programme for strengthening Parliamentary Raj Institutions (PRIs), Abdullah exuded confidence that soon a government will be formed in J&K which will make officials answerable to people.
Requesting Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, who was present on the dais, for providing security to panchayat leaders, Abdullah said they are being targeted by terrorists.
"The politicians who are standing with the country are target of the terrorists and it is for the country to protect them," he said.
Talking about local polls held in September 2018, the National Conference leader said, "I regret that my party didn't participate in panchayat polls".
Abdullah expressed his anguish that government officials of the Jammu and Kashmir administration "don't pick phones as if some ghost is hanging upon them .
He requested Sinha to instruct officials to answer phone calls of people.
"Soon a government will be formed in Jammu and Kashmir which will make government officials answerable to the people," Abdullah said.
