Approximately 3500 species of centipedes are found in the class Chilopoda, phylum Arthropoda. They are among the less well-studied arthropods. Centipedes are elongated multisegmented arthropods with a single pair of legs on each body segment. They are distributed widely, being present on every continent except Antarctica, and are especially common in warm temperate and tropical regions. Centipedes spend much of their time underground or in rock piles and usually come out at night to actively hunt their prey. They are capable of very fast movement when exposed. The most dangerous species belong to the genus Scolopendra, with the largest members (Scolopendra gigantea) reaching lengths of 26 cm. See the image below.

The venom delivery apparatus consists of a modified pair of front legs (ie, forcipules) just behind the mandibles. Venom is produced in a gland, generally located at the base of each forcipule, and is injected through ducts when the forcipules are driven into the victim's tissues.
Centipede venoms have not been studied as extensively as many spider and scorpion venoms, but they do contain a wide array of components, including 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), histamine, metalloproteases, hyaluronidase, pore-forming toxins, CAP proteins, and ion channel modulators. [1, 2] In addition, some centipede venoms may cause endogenous release of histamine.
In addition to venom, some species exude defensive substances from glands found along the body segments. These secretions are usually nontoxic to humans, although at least one species of the genus Otostigmus secretes a vesicating substance.
While good data are sparse, in some regions of the world, centipede stings are not infrequent. Medeiros et al reported 98 such stings presenting to Hospital Vital Brazil, Butantan Institute, São Paulo, Brazil, between 1990 and 2007. [3]
Prognosis is excellent in the vast majority of cases of centipede envenomation. Most species are relatively innocuous.
Fatalities are extremely rare following centipede stings. A death was reported in a 7-year-old Filipino girl who was stung on the head by a centipede of the large species Scolopendra subspinipes, which may reach 23 cm in length.
A case of electrocardiographic (ECG) changes suggestive of ischemia has been reported in a 60-year-old man after a sting by a 12-cm centipede in Turkey. [4] While there was a slight associated elevation in serum CK-MB and myoglobin, troponin I, troponin T, and delayed exercise stress testing were all normal, and the ECG returned to normal a few hours later. Another 20-year-old man in Turkey presented to an ED with chest pain approximately 24 hours after a reported centipede sting. [5] His ECG revealed inferior ST-segment elevation, and he had a positive rise in his CK-MB and troponin T levels. His echocardiogram was normal, and he did well after conservative therapy (without thrombolysis or angioplasty). Delayed coronary angiography revealed normal coronary arteries. The patient was noted to be "completely symptom free" at 17 months. He was felt to have suffered a myocardial infarction, possibly related to coronary vasospasm, inflammatory changes, or multifactorial effects.
A 22-year-old man without cardiac risk factors suffered an apparent ST elevation myocardial infarction following a purported centipede sting in India. [6] The victim was stung on the finger, had immediate pain and swelling, and, 2 hours later, developed chest pain with nausea, vomiting, and diaphoresis. On presentation to the hospital 14 hours after the injury, his ECG was consistent with anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction. He was treated with nitrates and morphine. His creatine kinase MB level was elevated and his troponin-I was 13.2 µg/L. Echocardiography revealed anterior wall hypokinesis. Cardiac catheterization revealed normal coronary arteries. Three days later, his ECG and echocardiography returned to normal.
A 31-year-old man in Turkey was stung on the foot by a 10-12 cm golden-colored centipede. [7] He presented to an emergency department approximately 1 hour after the sting, complaining of foot pain and swelling. Shortly after arrival, he developed squeezing chest pain radiating to his left arm. While an electrocardiogram (ECG) was being obtained, he went into cardiac arrest. He was successfully resuscitated within 5 minutes and was treated with aspirin, heparin, and intravenous nitroglycerin. His ECG demonstrated inferior-posterior acute myocardial infarction, and an echocardiogram revealed akinesis in the inferior and posterior segments of his left ventricle, as well as hypokinesis of the lateral wall. As he continued to have chest pain and ST elevations despite conservative treatment, the decision was made to administer 100 mg of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA). After 90 minutes, the patient's symptoms resolved and his ECG normalized. His troponin I peaked at 7.23 ng/mL at 12 hours. He was transferred to a facility capable of performing a cardiac catheterization, which revealed normal coronaries. Follow-up echocardiogram demonstrated only slight hypokinesis of the inferior wall of the left ventricle and an ejection fraction of 65%. His only cardiac risk factor was a smoking history. The authors of this report suspect his myocardial infarction and arrest were due to venom-induced coronary vasospasm leading to an acute coronary thrombosis.
A case of rhabdomyolysis complicated by compartment syndrome and acute renal failure requiring temporary hemodialysis has been reported following the sting of the giant desert centipede, Scolopendra heros. [8] Prolonged, isolated proteinuria without any other evidence of renal dysfunction has also been reported in a young female following Scolopendra sting.
Langley reported 5 centipede-related deaths recorded in the National Center for Health Statistics [9] CDC Wonder database in the United States between 1991 and 2001, though he had no supporting documentation to confirm that these deaths were truly due to centipedes.

Guide to Military Uniforms
New Marines with Kilo Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, stand in formation during liberty call at Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, Jan. 16, 2020. (Lance Cpl. Grace J. Kindred/U.S. Marines)
Evidence of the first use of military uniforms dates back to circa 200 BC and the Spanish warriors who faced Hannibal. The first U.S. military uniforms date to 1779 when General George Washington wore the blue uniform coat with state facing colors, and white waistcoat and breeches. The U.S. blue uniform was in direct contrast to the red uniforms of the British Army.
To this day, the blue uniform is part of the military bloodline. Whether it's the Navy's "Full Dress'' or the Marines' "Blue Dress'' uniforms, all of the U.S. Armed Forces uniforms have a tie to the traditional blue uniform in one way or another.
Since its founding, the U.S. military's uniforms have changed with civilian fashion, utility, practicality and roles. Today's military services have several uniforms, which vary based on the wearer's rank, specific situations and occasions.
Each service selects the color and design that makes its uniform unique and practical for its particular work environment, whether it is the battlefield, flight line or the deck of a ship. In addition, each service has several uniforms ranging from their everyday work uniform to their service dress uniform.
Click on the following links to learn more about each service's current uniforms, uniform policies, changes and updates:
Army uniforms
Navy uniforms
Marine Corps uniforms
Air Force uniforms

These beauties will really make a room statement! The colour schemes are simply superb and blend with the 60's styling so well. The fabric pads are vibrant red and sit nicely on the white plastic seats which in turn, sit nicely on grey steel bases. What a twosome!
Both are sound, sturdy and ready for use.

What happens if there is a hurricane during your cruise?
What happens if a cruise is canceled due to weather?
Would a cruise ship survive a hurricane?

How safe are cruise ships in rough seas?
Are cruise ships safe during storms?
Typically, it's still safe for cruise ships to depart the home port while a hurricane is occurring in the Caribbean, as long as the hurricane is not impacting the embarkation (home) port – and if the home port is impacted, a cruise departure may only be delayed by a day or two rather than being canceled.
Full cancellations of cruises due to weather are rare, but they do occasionally occur. … If your cruise is cancelled due to the weather, you will be issued a full refund. Partial refunds or credits are issued in cases of a cruise that is shortened because of inclement weather.
However, the main reason cruise ships do not capsize in hurricanes is that they are not placed in harm's way. … Carnival, MSC Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and Disney Cruise Line all re-routed ships out of her path. The simplest strategy for surviving a hurricane is not to face it in the first place.
Cruises won't return until June at the very earliest. Update 14: On April 6, Carnival Cruise Line decided to extend its suspension out of U.S. ports. So it means that cruises are canceled through June 30, 2021. It also includes the new Mardi Gras cruise ship which won't debut until early July.

"A full refund will be automatically processed (no need to call us), including taxes, fees, and port expenses, Fly2Fun reservations, and any other prepaid items, such as Carnival shore excursions, gratuities, Fun Shop purchases, beverage and Wi-Fi packages.
The safety of passengers and crew is always the top priority, so if weather conditions are severe enough to warrant it, yes, cruise lines will cancel sailings. If that happens before you set sail, you will be given a full refund.
Yes, cruise ships are designed to handle rough seas. … During rough seas, the captain may order passengers to stay indoors for the safety of everyone on the ship and for passengers with mobility issues, staying seated is a good idea.
While cruise ships can typically "outrun" most storms, passengers may still experience rough seas as their ship skirts the edges of a storm. On rare occasions, a ship may have to go through the outer bands of storm to reach safe haven in a port, though most times ships will go out to sea to avoid storms.

News Analysts: Released Flight MH370 Voice Recording was Edited
Analysts: Released Flight MH370 Voice Recording was Edited
For nearly two months, the search has been on for Malaysian Airlines flight MH370. Theories have abounded and we've covered several stories regarding the missing Boeing 777. A Malaysian government official has claimed the plane has been hijacked. No evidence has been found that the plane has crashed as of the writing of this article. However, on Thursday, for the first time, 7 minutes of audio recordings of the final conversations between the pilots of flight 370 and the air traffic controllers on the ground were released. Listen to the recording below:
So what is the problem? Apparently the recordings were edited. This has led to speculation that the recording was produced on a sound stage. However, the question is why?
NBC reports:
Analysts who listened to the recordings for NBC News did not know why they were edited, but discovered at least four clear breaks in the audio that indicated edits.
"It's very strange," said audio-video forensic expert and registered investigator Ed Primeau of Primeau Forensics, who has analyzed hundreds of audio recordings. He said the beginning and end of the recording are high-quality with a low noise floor, meaning ambient background noise is almost silent, unlike the middle.
"At approximately 1:14 (a minute, 14 seconds into the audio, which can be heard here), the tone of the recording change to where to me, it sounds like someone is holding a digital recorder up to a speaker, so it's a microphone-to-speaker transfer of that information. That's a pretty big deal because it raises the first red flag about there possibly being some editing," he said.
The next part that raises questions is two minutes, six seconds in, through two minutes, nine seconds in, he said.
"I can hear noise in the room, along with the increase in the noise floor. I can hear a file door being closed, I can hear some papers being shuffled. so I'm further convinced that, beginning at 1:14 continuing through 2:06 to 2:15, it's a digital recorder being held up to a speaker."
Long gaps in the communication throughout the recording also imply some editing>, he said.
"But yet, at 6:17, there's a huge edit because the conversation is cut off. It's interrupted. And the tone changes again," he said. "The noise floor, when you're authenticating a recording from a forensic perspective, is a very important part of the process. All of a sudden, we go back to the same quality and extremely low noise floor that we had at the beginning of the recording."
Kent Gibson, a forensic audio examiner with Forensic Audio in Los Angeles, added that there appear to be additional edits at 2:11 and 5:08, and agreed it sounded as thoughthe middle section was recorded with a microphone near a speaker.
"You can hear, at 4:07, pages turning or a person breathing, which is unusual," he said.
While it's not uncommon for the background of a recording to change when a cockpit communication turns over from ground control to air controllers — which happened about four minutes into this recording — that doesn't explain the noises that are heard.
"It's not unusual that there would be clicks when they push the button on the microphone, but it's very unusual to have a disturbance. Normally you wouldn't have any background," Gibson said.
A cut-off word also isn't out of the realm of possibility, he said.
"It wouldn't be unthinkable to have a truncated word because if somebody let go of the trigger on the microphone, it might cut off their word," he said. "But it would be very unusual to find a background differential at the same time, suggesting that Malaysian authorities or whoever presented this made edits for whatever reason."
There are most definitely edits and problems with the authenticity of the recording. One has to wonder what the pilots said that would need to be edited in such a fashion. Is the Malaysian government hiding something? NBC continues:
Gibson said it's possible the tapes could have been edited by Malaysian authorities "if the pilot dropped a hint that they didn't want to get out, if he said something that doesn't fit with the Malaysian government's party line."
But, he said, "It's more likely to be an inadvertent thing. But it's not the way to handle evidence."
The recording also could have come from different sources, he added.
"You can assume that the recording while they're still on the ground came from the tower and then you could assume that the communication with air controllers was while they're in the air," he said. "They may have just mishandled the cobbling of it together."
This doesn't necessarily prove anything about the investigation, he added. "Unfortunately, there are no smoking guns, except there are edits. And there are clear edits," he said.
Wait, what? The report is claiming there are big editing problems, sound problems and tone differentiations, but no smoking gun? I'm no rocket scientist, but isn't that somewhat of a smoking gun? I mean what is the reason and purpose for such an editing of the recording?
"There's things that have to do with timelines and radar that they have available, but they don't make them available," said Tom Owen, a consultant for Owen Forensic Services audio analysis and chairman emeritus of the American Board of Recorded Evidence. "They wouldn't give you anything that would be enlightening for the public to any secretive information. I don't see that as a problematic issue."
While the passengers are presumed dead, there have been sources that have claimed otherwise, even reports that information came from one of the passengers onboard, the fact remains that no evidence of the airliner crashing has surfaced. Due to the nature that there are numerous items onboard the plane that float, one would expect floating debris from the plane to be visible. So far, we've seen nothing.
This has led me to interview a friend, who is a commercial pilot for a large US airline, concerning some of the information we've been given. Look for that report on Sunday.

We are seeing more and more of our clients choosing artificial sod/AstroTurf for their properties. Like everything else, AstroTurf has advantages and disadvantages. Have you ever wondered if this sod alternative is right for you? If so, keep reading, as we have put together a list of things you need to know. Pros and cons and why we think Synthetic Grass could be an option for you!
The first thing you need to ask yourself is how much square footage you want to keep green. Secondly, what will the space be used for? We have found the biggest considerations are a direct result of these two answers. Decide if you want a large space or a small one, whether it will be used for children playing, sports, for aesthetic purposes, a dog run, or even to border a stone walkway. Now that you have these answers keep reading to see which option is best for you!
Pricing varies from company to company! You can spend anywhere from $14-$18 per square foot installed. This is significantly more expensive than real sod which costs around $2 – $3 per a square foot installed. Astro-turf is certainly an investment, however, it is much more affordable if you have a smaller space. Some pro's for a smaller landscape is not having to maintain grass around pool areas or stepping stones. Eliminating the need to mow, trim, sweep and irrigate a small area of greenery saves you time and money on your water bill. Let's put it into perspective, If you are looking to sod an area that is approximately 2000 sq ft, artificial sod will run you about $30,000. No water bill can make up that difference, however, a smaller amount say 300 – 500 square feet can pay for itself by eliminating water, lawn mowers, weed whackers, aeration, and fertilizers. No maintenance, no irrigation systems, no stress and it's always green!
All seasons, sun, rain and snow. One of the most significant benefits of synthetic sod is that it withstands anything our Canadian weather sends our way. No mud or grass getting trailed into the swimming pool! No fading yellow patches and no dead grass over the winter months.
Eliminating the carbon emissions from lawn mowers creates less pollution, no harmful pesticides are needed to keep your lawn green which is healthy for you and your family. Lastly, no water is required in order to maintain it. Therefore, if you live in an area where your water use is restricted, this option is a fantastic alternative for always having a perfect lawn. Now, on the other hand, synthetic sod is made of plastic, so it is not entirely green. Make sure you look into companies that use recycled plastic!
Synthetic sod is often used in dog daycares as it is straightforward to maintain, clean up and your puppies can't dig up the ground. Imagine a life where you never have a dirty dog after letting them out back. So, if you have dogs running around at home, this could be the perfect option for you.
Leave it to the professionals! There is a lot more that goes into laying synthetic sod then you may think. With novice installation, there is a lot that can go wrong. An uneven base, no drainage, ignoring the grain, incorrect base material, inaccurate measurements, not installing a weed blocker, and the list goes on. Trust us, if you want excellent artificial grass, ask for help.
Synthetic sod is very hot to touch, which is why we would not recommend it for large play areas. It is a wonderful option for bordering pools, stepping stones, shaded/small dog runs, areas in your landscape that you want greenery for aesthetic purposes and not functionality.
While AstroTurf has come a long way and higher end companies provide a look that is almost a replica of real sod, you can still see a difference. So know, if you plan on installing it in your front yard, it will look different from your neighbours.
Synthetic sod is not entirely maintenance free! You still have to rake leaves and debris that falls. You will also have to brush the blades themselves, to prevent the turf from compacting down over time.
Synthetic sod can last anywhere from 10-25 years! This is one major selling point.
Design!! Use synthetic sod to create a unique modern design. By cutting in stepping stones, you can devise a creative space like no one else.
Don't hesitate to call us at 905.338.1433 if you have any questions! Or for a quote, if you think synthetic sod is the choice for you!


The first few generations of smart had a wiper mounted windscreen washer jet. Even when they removed it and went with a standard tridion mounted tri-jet, many of the parts are still in place allowing you to retrofit it.
Then go to Halfords and buy an HWP4 T-piece and a short length of hose to fit it.
Take the front of the car off which can be seen here.
Remove the centre bolt with a T20 screwdriver and the 2 outside bolts with a T30.
With the three bolts out you can pull the plastic cover up and off the car.
Remove the three T20 bolts (circled in red below) from the nearside headlight.
Swing the headlight out to one side to gain access behind it.
attach the hose to the connection that comes out the back of the surround.
Route the pipe to the front centre area of the car where the other pipe is found.
Replace the headlight, tighten the lower two bolts then pay attention to the top one.
You will see clearly where it was positioned before, line it up and lighten it down.
Cut the original pipe in two and trim the new pipe to the right length.
Attach the three ends to the T-piece and zip tie them in place.
Lift up the cover on the near side windscreen wiper.
Look at the base and you will see a hole and a bump.
Remove the wiper for better access using a 13mm socket.
Take your small connector that you bought from smart and push it in place.
There is an indent that lines up with the bump seen above.
It can take a bit of force but it will go in, I used a rubber mallet.
This coincides with a hole in the washer jet clip, clip it over the bump.
Push the other end of the pipe into the outlet under the cover.
Push the clip over the spring and zip tie the pipe where necessary.
don't tighten the zip ties up too tightly otherwise they will restrict the flow.
and refit the front panels. Test the jet and adjust the nozzles if necessary. Job done.

Q: How to configure Jenkins to build a .net framework project when it depends on another .net project ? I have a project that depends on another project, how can I configure Jenkins to use the reference of that project in the workspace.
For an example, project B depends on a certain set of classes from project A. Jenkins should be aware to build project A first and then B.
The trigger point is when a commit is pushed to the master of project B.

A: If a project depends upon another project, it is typically part of the same solution and always part of the same source tree.  This means the slave will probably have the source already - or if it doesn't, the step that obtains the source needs the workspace mapping updated to not exclude it.
Also, when a project depends upon another project, the reference information includes the path to the referenced project.  In the absence of solution file, this is used directly to build the other project with the same configuration (as in Debug/Release).
It's usually best to use a solution file instead of building projects directly as that ensures platform/configuration customisation is honoured as well as determining the correct build order of the projects.

A: So I got it sorted out. Since my project was based on project reference, the path had to be the same.
Naming the Jenkins project folder same as the dependent project name I referenced solved the issue.
I was under the impression that another workspace can't access another workspace. But it seems to be Jenkins handles it internally when building projects.

Curacao Competes 2014
Curaçao Competes 2014 provides for six immediate needs:
A self-assessment by the private sector of its own business sophistication and innovation.
Concrete actions for the private sector to enhance its competitiveness. As such it is a tremendous tool for advisors, financiers, business service organizations and the like.
Awareness of the 100+ factors that contribute to competitiveness of firms and countries.
Information about the programs our competing nations have implemented to improve the competitiveness of their firms and countries, and attract more investors and exports. We do the same for our trade partners and economies in transition.
Points to promote Curacao NOW, given our current strengths and weaknesses
An existing globally benchmarked tool to measure our progress.
The World Economic Forum's (WEF) Global Competitiveness Index (GCI) is widely recognized as the world's leading cross-country comparison of factors that affect competitiveness and therefore investments and economic growth. Published since 1979 and financed by private enterprise, it covers 148 of the 200 countries in the world, and is used to evaluate investment options and determine economic policy.
Curacao is not included in the report, because of the size of our economy and because, while they exist locally, secondary data is not available from global institutions such as the World Bank and IMF. The cessation of the Netherlands Antilles on October 10, 2010, has both added to the confusion and created a unique opportunity.
In 2012, based on our credentials, WEF gave MarkStra Caribbean permission to conduct the Global Competitiveness Survey in Curacao using its methodology, but for our own account. MarkStra Caribbean published Curaçao Competes 2014 in June 2014.
Introduction to the pillars of competitiveness
The findings for Curacao and analysis
Curacao's ranking against our major competitors so that
Curacao's ranking against our major existing and emerging trade partners
The ranking of the local business community on the global business sophistication index
The strengths and weaknesses of the leading countries in each continent
An overview of practical ways in which other countries have used the findings of the GCI to determine policy, attract investors and increase competitiveness. The overview will focus on our competitors, the Kingdom, existing and emerging trading partners, and other small states. The questionnaire stating all 140 factors that influence competitiveness
The global competitiveness index is made up of an Executive Opinion Survey and secondary data.
We issued invitations to Curacao professionals and executives to participate in the 30 minute Executive Opinion Survey via mail, email and telephone calls, to lists from the Chamber of Commerce, Curacah Hospitality Associaiton, ADECK (Small Business Association), CURINDE, DMO (Downtown Management Organization), and MarkStra's proprietary database, as well as through the media, between August 2013 and February 2014
Business leaders, board members of trade and professional organizations were given an additional opportunity to participate
Participants could take the survey online or in-person between August 2013 and February 2014. Over 75% chose to take the survey online;All surveys were taken in English (as they are in Holland)Surveys filled in only partially were discarded
The final sample, n = 80, is representative of the Curacao business landscape according to contribution to GDP, following the WEF guidelines.
Statistical analyses were carried out, following WEF GCI methodology, as far as possible
Secondary data was collected from CBS, CBCS, BTP and global sources between January and March 2014
Why is it good for your company?
If you are a Curacao company:
you can use it to describe the economic environment in which you operate to potential foreign clients, suppliers, and partners in today's terms
It gives you an idea of your company's own competitiveness based on its attention to and investment in the factors that are relevant in today's terms.
If you are a potential investor, it describes the strengths and weaknneses in Curacao's economic environment
Why is this good for Curacao?
It allows us to describe Curacao's business and economic environment in terms used nowadays around the world
It allows us to highlight our strengths to potential investors, clients, partners and others based on benchmarked data
It allows us to measure the effectiveness of economic policies and programs developed and implemented
Our intern, Yverna Hu-A-Ng, a senior at the University of Curacao, managed the fieldwork.

There's no doubt that cloud container services adoption is on the rise. A recent survey found that more than 80% of IT professionals and teams reported deploying container technologies — up from 58% in 2017.
With this rise in adoption comes a rise of options in the market, so it quickly becomes difficult to keep track of each service and what they're best used for. We took a look at 14 container services and container-like services associated with the top cloud providers, and broke down the main use case for each. Scroll to the bottom for a comparison chart.
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a container orchestration service, used to manage and deploy containers distributed across many AWS virtual machines. Combined with AWS Fargate, it allows you to run containers without selecting servers. Pricing depends on the launch model: for the Fargate model, you pay for vCPU and memory that your containerized application requests. For the EC2 model, you simply pay for the EC2 instances and other resources – such as EBS volumes – you create to store and run your application.
Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) is AWS's managed solution to store, manage, and deploy Docker container images. It is highly available, scalable, and integrated with Amazon ECS. Payment is based on the amount of data stored in repositories and data transferred to the Internet.
Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS) is AWS's service to manage and deploy containers via Kubernetes container orchestration service. Pricing is $0.20 per hour for each EKS cluster, as well as the cost of AWS resources such as EC2 instances that you create to run your Kubernetes worker nodes.
AWS Fargate is a solution for Amazon ECS that allows you to run containers without managing servers or infrastructure, making it easier to focus on applications rather than the infrastructure that runs them. Pricing is based on the vCPU and memory resources used.
AWS Batch is a way for AWS users to run large quantities of batch computing jobs — which is done by executing them as Docker containers. You pay only for the AWS resources you use to create to store and run your application, with no additional fees.
Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is Azure's fully managed solution to manage & deploy containers via Kubernetes container orchestration service. You pay only for the VMs, storage, and networking resources used for the Kubernetes cluster, with no additional charge.
Azure Container Registry is a way to store and manage container images for container deployment across DC/OS, Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, and Azure services including App Service, Batch, and Service Fabric. Pricing is per day, with several tiers depending on the amount of storage and web hooks needed.
Azure Container Instances (ACI) is a service that allows you to run containers on Azure without managing servers or infrastructure, making it simpler to build applications without focusing on infrastructure. Billing is by "container groups" which are assignments of vCPU and memory resources for your running containers, and is on a per-second basis.
Azure Batch is a service for running a large number of competitive compute jobs, which users can choose to can run directly on virtual machines or on Docker-compatible containers. You pay only for the compute and other resources used to run the batch jobs, with no additional fees for using Batch.
Azure App Service is a way to create cloud-based web apps and APIs, which similarly to Azure Batch, has options for running on virtual machines or in containers. Billing is per hour, with several tiers depending on your needs for disk space, number of instances, auto scaling, and network isolation.
Azure Services Fabric is a way to lift, shift, and modernize .NET applications to microservices using Windows Server containers. Service Fabric is an open source project that powers core Azure infrastructure and other Microsoft services include Skype for Business, Azure SQL Databases, Cortana and more. You pay for compute, volumes, and collections used, though the complicated pricing model makes it hard to estimate.
Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) is Google Cloud's fully managed solution to manage and deploy containers via Kubernetes container orchestration service. You pay for the Google Compute Engine instances used, with no additional charges.
Google Container Registry allows users to store and manage Docker container images for container deployment. You pay for the storage and network used by your Docker resources.
It's a great time to become familiar with the various cloud container services and try them out — this infrastructure model will only become more prominent!

Mississippi International Arts Pavilion
Vickburg, MS
A project of the Mississippi Commission for International Cultural Exchange, Inc., a 501(c) (3) cultural and educational organization, the Mississippi International Arts Pavilion will continue the tradition of presenting world-class international art exhibitions in the manner of previous exhibition projects such as Palaces of St. Petersburg: Russian Imperial Style; Splendors of Versailles; The Majesty of Spain: Royal Collections from the Museo del Prado & Patrimonio Nacional; and The Glory of Baroque Dresden. These exhibitions attracted over 1.3 million visitors and generated approximately $200 million in economic impact.
Designed by JBHM Architecture, the classical MSIAP building features a noble exterior clad in Indiana limestone with a welcoming portico marked by four Ionic columns. The pavilion is set back from the street allowing for the design of a plaza, which will be developed into an outdoor sculpture garden. A low dome of copper with a gilded classical decorative crown further identifies the grand building.
A columned Grand Entry Hall will welcome visitors and lead into the most magnificent space in the pavilion: the Great Rotunda. Encircled by columns, this breathtaking space will awe the many visitors with its architectural and decorative splendor. This space will be the scene of many important and memorable events.
The south wing of the main level will house the 10,000 sq. ft. International Exhibition Hall for changing exhibitions. The north wing of the pavilion will house approximately ten galleries, including the permanent installation of spectacular period room creations owned by the Mississippi Commission for International Cultural Exchange from previous exhibitions.
Among the highlights of the period rooms is the only copy, deemed the "Mississippi Copy," of the greatest room in the world made of porcelain…the Porcelain Room from the Royal Palace of Aranjuez in Spain. Other galleries in the north wing of the mail level include: the Stucco Hall from the Casita of the Prince, El Pardo, Spain; the Lantern Study from Pavlovsk Palace and the Throne Room from Gatchina Palace, both from Russia; the Dresden Gallery, featuring a replica (45 ft. x 15 ft.) of the original ceiling painting of the Audience Hall of the Dresden Residence Palace. The Asian Gallery , the European Gallery, The Mississippi Gallery, the Civil War Gallery and the Boehm Porcelain Gallery complete a wide array of permanent galleries.
A 250-seat auditorium/recital hall will be located on the lower level and will be utilized for films, lectures, chamber music and educational events. A restaurant and gift shop on the main level will serve to ensure the enjoyment of a visit to the Mississippi International Arts Pavilion.

The God-Shaped Heart — Book Helps Christians Connect With God's Transformative Love And Truth
Chattanooga, TN, June 13, 2017 ― Love is power — the power to live, the power to heal and the power to be free. What happens, however, when distorted beliefs or unhealthy God concepts take root in the heart and obstruct this love?
Christian psychiatrist, international speaker and author Timothy R. Jennings, M.D., explores the healing power of love, exposes beliefs that obstruct love and identifies eternal truths that open the heart to God's love in his newest book, The God-Shaped Heart: How Correctly Understanding God's Love Transforms Us.
In this compelling follow-up to The God-Shaped Brain, Dr. Jennings takes an evidence-based approach to exposing an infection of thought that keeps millions of Christians trapped in fear and insecurity. He also documents seven stages of spiritual development that can lead people out of this trap and back to God's love.
In The God-Shaped Heart, Jennings compellingly reveals:
• Genuine Christianity is centered on love, and such love, when practiced, transforms hearts and heals minds.
• An infection of thought deeply rooted within Christianity is causing confusion, contributing to division and preventing millions from experiencing the transformative power of God's love.
• When human-imposed law replaces design law, injury, pain and damage occurs to hearts, minds and relationships.
• A scientifically and Biblically sound understanding on homosexuality that resolves the long hostility between Christians and homosexuals.
• While there is something wrong in Christianity today, there is a remedy freely available that brings healing and transformation.
Jennings provides insights that make God's love understandable, applicable and accessible for all audiences, including those who struggle with Christianity or struggle to harmonize Christianity and science; Christians who have become frustrated with Christianity; and those who view Christianity as negative and critical.
The God-Shaped Heart was written to help Christians everywhere advance ever closer to God's ideal through experiencing the transformative power of God's love.
Timothy R. Jennings, M.D., is a board-certified Christian psychiatrist, master psychopharmacologist, international speaker, author, Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and Life-Fellow of the Southern Psychiatric Association.
He obtained his M.D. degree in 1990 from the University of Tennessee College of Medicine in Memphis. He completed his psychiatric residency at D.D. Eisenhower Army Medical Center in Augusta, Georgia, and has served as the Division Psychiatrist for the 3rd Infantry Division. He is married and lives in Chattanooga where he is in private practice. Jennings is also the President and Founder of Come and Reason Ministries and has served as President of the Southern Psychiatric Association and Tennessee Psychiatric Association.
His other books include Could It Be This Simple? A Biblical Model for Healing the Mind, The Journal of the Watcher, The Remedy New Testament Expanded Paraphrase and The God-Shaped Brain: How Changing Your View of God Transforms Your Life.

How I'm Learning To Love The Web -Chen Feng
Posted by Jonathan Ansfield | Dec 5, 2006
I've asked a few of China's more celebrated journalists why it is that they tend to neglect their celebrity blogs. The main reason, they say, is because the same Chinese portals who so wish to host their blogs often cannot publish their posts.
In his own roundabout way, Sohu.com news editor Chen Feng 陈峰 (pictured) mulled the relative constraints in print versus online on his own celebrity blog last week. His ruminations have since hovered near the top of the charts on the BBS Journalists' Home.
Chen happened upon fame in 2003, as the Southern Metropolis Daily reporter who scooped the story of Sun Zhigang. A disciple of storied Southern Metropolis editor Cheng Yizhong, Chen moved to Beijing with Cheng and clan in 2003 to start The Beijing News. There he served as metro editor. Once that paper imploded at the turn of this year, Chen made the jump to Sohu. He's not always been the happiest camper. With the author's permission, Biganzi translated his essay. It's titled, "China had no CNN, so came the news portals":
I was watching a TV program a few days ago. An advertising industry whiz was saying, the premise of making an ad is that your product must do the talking. If it doesn't, then better the ad is, the faster the product will die.
After I arrived at an Internet company, a lot of the language changed…
…Now we don't call content "content". We call it a "product". Of course the substance is the same. In [traditional] media circles as well, we once had a popular saying, that news is the product we sell. What the readers wants, we provide.
Yet this saying is well worth questioning. First of all, it's very hard for us to know for certain what our users want in the end. Foreigners have a classic saying: readers can't criticize what they haven't seen. In other words, readers can only judge what they've already read. When they say something's good, perhaps it's just that under the current circumstances, they feel it's not bad. Give them something better, and perhaps they'll say what they have right now is no good.
So if we say that readers only like pornographic news (ȪÑËâ≤Êñ∞Èóª), perhaps that's just because among the contents you provide, only the pornographic is interesting.
One other reason to question is that it's very hard to gauge readers' reactions to news with absolute certainty. With news, another saying in journalistic circles goes, half the game is science, and half is art. Conversely, people responses are also very hard to accurately describe and analyze. When readers say something is good or bad, the factors involved are all too undefined. It's also possible that in a readership analysis report, one half is scientific, and one half is totally imagined.
That is the reason why in online news, machines can never replace people. Because machines can never know people's feelings. It's impossible to figure out people's feelings by relying on algorithms alone. We'll often say that a certain editor's feelfor news is really good. This feeling, I'm afraid, is not something that can be worked out by algorithms.
At newspapers, ordinarily, the most confidential thing is the editorial outline. The core of the editorial outline is not about operational things, but rather ideas of journalism. Put bluntly, it is the journalistic orientation. This journalistic orientation takes market positioning into consideration, but I'm afraid that it is more of a sort of analysis of the reader. You see all of the ideas. There are few statistics, and much more descriptive language. It looks the same as mathematic axioms. You have a hard time telling from where it all emerged.
We say that news about society, to a large degree, is a kind of conversation piece,and we say that readers of international news, to a large degree, are males getting in on the excitement, as a kind of disguised expression of their hope to take part in society. Do we have proof of this? Do we have data? No, we don't. Readers themselves would never utter these things. The reason why we think this way in the process of journalism is nothing but a certain understanding of life and of readers.
Of course that's not to say that editors should sit in a room every day teaching readers lessons. After attending Internet meetings, in chats with colleagues, I said that as an editor from traditional media going to the Internet, I should feel excited. One of the important reasons being, the Internet offers editors the best means of analyzing readers. It's like a data log, and at the same time provides the best channel to get close to readers, like following them.
As long as you have an understanding of life and of readers, then these tools have such tremendous use. They allow you to effectively analyze readers' needs.
To return to my subject, back in the day, Sina took advantage of 9/11 to spring to its feet. It satisfied the Chinese people's hunger for national and global news and information. Actually, this was also an unfilled opening. In the "The Way of Sina.com", it says that [SIna VP and news editor] Chen Tong (陈彤) first started to produce news by posting the scores of sports matches in chat forums. After that, he broadcast games live. Yet at the time, television and newspapers were still leisurely preparing their reports to go out few hours or even a few days later.
So this also was a kind of opening. When I've trained new people I've said that, the rise of the Internet portals, in fact, tapped into two different openings. One, indeed, involved awareness of copyright protections. But more important at that time, or you could say up to the present day, was China's system of controlling the press. Both of these factors left a huge opening for the Internet portals.
China has no CNN. It has no New York Times, Washington Post, or USA Today, or this kind of rolling news organization. CCTV isn't one, and the People's Daily certainly isn't one. China's only developed [media] are metropolitan newspapers and local television stations. Therefore, the trans-regional Internet naturally have become the best carrier of news and information. Not to mention that when 9/11 happened, the Internet could also make immense use of foreign wires, so the speed with which it reported international news was even faster.
In fact it's the same as with QQ. It gives utmost play to the features of Internet communication and broadcast channels (a couple days ago, I heard an old-school [sic] say, the essence of the Internet is an organizational tool; this is also most interesting.)
So, traditional media can complain that the Internet is wresting away their readers. But what they should complain about is the control of the press. Control of the press has not granted traditional media the opportunity to free themselves (翻身). In the United States, there is not the kind of Web portal news there is in China. There are the media's own news websites. This [difference] has to do both with control of the news and with copyright awareness.
Similarly, from the moment [Sina's] Chen Tong started to post up-to-the minute scores in online forums, actually, the sports papers were destined to meet a dead end.Gone are the days when you could just print a few scores and a few match reports mingling truth and falsehood, and sell it.
And by the same token as well, why is it that to this day, none of the local news portals have been successful? Naturally, most of the local news portals are Web sites run by newspapers themselves. So they're still traveling the old road from print to the Web, artificially hindering the timeliness of Internet news. But to reshape the media, so that its train of thought moves from the Web to print, would require the formation of a whole new system. Just the cost of reshaping the internal structure, might already be too high. (Xiao Liu's [editor Liu Xinzheng] Zheng Weekly has talked about this problem).
But an even more important reason, perhaps, is that the local news market is already too dense. What big city doesn't have a few metropolitan papers, a few television stations and a few radio stations. Factor in the pass-on rate of newspapers (one paper might be read by an entire office or a whole family), and it's extremely difficult for the Internet to squeeze into the local news market.
But too small an opening does not mean there is no opening. Up to the present, the Internet companies that have been successful have taken two approaches. One is to tap into an opening left behind by the traditional media; for example, news. The second is bring into play all of the Internet features that traditional media don't have, and better satisfy users demands; for example, e-commerce.
Online gaming and QQ do both of these things, and thus are even more successful.
In journalism training courses, I spoke about the four characteristics of Internet news as I see them. One is timeliness; two is the archival feature; three is interactivity; four is multimedia. Actually there is also a fifth, the limitlessness to traverse the boundaries of space and time.
If you want to establish a local portal, and compete with the other highly crowded channels, I'm afraid that the portals' same strategy of collecting information on the basis of super-capacity cannot be repeated. You have to think more from the basis of the Internet's own characteristics. Right now among local Web sites, the successful ones are mostly in communities. I'm afraid that that's the best manifestation of the interactivity of the Web.

WASHINGTON (AP) _ A CIA-backed technology company has found logins and passwords for 47 government agencies strewn across the Web _ available for hackers, spies and thieves.
Recorded Future, a social media data mining firm backed by the CIA's venture capital arm, says in a report that login credentials for nearly every federal agency have been posted on open Internet sites for those who know where to look.
According to the company, at least 12 agencies don't require authentication beyond passwords to access their networks, so those agencies are vulnerable to espionage and cyberattacks.
The company says logins and passwords were found connected with the departments of Defense, Justice, Treasury and Energy, as well as the CIA and the Director of National Intelligence.

PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa's government has defended its move to ensure that former first lady Grace Mugabe receives a luxury car and a house as part of a host of benefits.
By Richard Muponde
On Friday, the government gazetted a statutory instrument on Presidential Pension and Retirement Benefits (services and facilities for spouses of former presidents).
Grace, whose husband, the late Robert Mugabe, was ousted in a military coup in 2017, will become the first beneficiary of the regulations as the statutory instrument only covers the period from December 31, 1987.
Zimbabwe's only other former first lady is Janet Banana, the widow of Canaan Banana, who left office before December 1987.
Grace, who emerged as Mnangagwa's bitterest rival prior to the coup, will receive a "Mercedes Benz E300 or one four-wheel-drive station wagon or an equivalent or similar class of motor vehicle and one pick-up van".
The vehicles will be replaced every five years.
She will also get an entertainment allowance and two foreign trips annually where she will fly business class.Her workers would be allocated a vehicle or vehicles as seen fit by the president.
Mugabe's widow would be entitled to two security personnel, a driver, personal secretary, one aide-de-camp officer, a fully furnished office, domestic employee, one gardener and one cook.
Justice minister Ziyambi Ziyambi defended the move saying Mnangagwa's government was correcting an anomaly where former first ladies' benefits were not guaranteed.
"We came up with the statutory instrument because we now have a former first lady, who should be given pension benefits," Ziyambi said.
The gazetting of the benefits came at a time when Mugabe's family is said to be bitter that Mnangagwa's government did not give the former strongman his benefits before his death on September 6, 2019.
After the coup Mnangagwa issued a statutory instrument that said a former president was entitled to a house on about 5 000 square metres of land, and a Mercedes Benz S500 Series or an equivalent class of motor vehicle, among other benefits.
His family says Mugabe only got $400 000 and was not able to access his other pension benefits deposited in a local commercial bank.
The family members also feel government has failed to protect Mugabe's investments, with his citrus plantation invaded by gold panners since 2018.
The panners are also accused of being behind the stealing of cattle from Gushungo Dairies.
It is alleged, Mugabe's dairy herd of around 2 500 cows has been reduced to less than 500 due to theft.Some of the cows are skinned at the farm by suspected rustlers, who only leave hides.
Reports have been made at Mazowe Police Station and no arrests have been made.
"We feel the most important thing now is to protect Mugabe's investments," a Mugabe relative working at the Mazowe estate said.
"Several police reports have been made, but no arrests have been made. We also have the problem of panners, but we have not received government protection."
Police spokesperson Assistant Commissioner Paul Nyathi said he needed to establish the nature of the alleged reports with Mashonaland West police before he could comment. Ziyambi insisted that the government had done its best to look after Mugabe before his death.
"I think government actually surpassed its promised benefits in the Mugabe case," he said.
"I think in the region we rank the best in the way we looked after our former president. Everything was done."
He said it was up to Mugabe's family to follow up on the other benefits that he was entitled to such as the housing stand.
On the cattle rustling cases, Ziyambi said Mugabe's family should approach the police.
"Cattle rustling is a widespread problem, it is not targeted," he said.
"Even where I come from, it is happening."
Mugabe's death resulted in a huge fallout between the government and Grace after she blocked a Heroes Acre burial, saying the long-time ruler had chosen Zvimba as his final resting place.
