Extreme Weather Impact on Fishing Discussed
Politics Sustainability Environment
TAIWAN - Taiwan held a seminar to share its experiences in dealing with the impact of extreme climate on its aquaculture industry and fisheries. Held in Taipei on March 21-23, this seminar brought together 18 of the 21 member countries of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), according to the Council of Agriculture.
Around 80 representatives from countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan and South Korea took part in the seminar, which was first proposed by Taiwan's Deputy Agriculture Minister Hu Sing-hwa during the third APEC Oceans-related Ministerial Meeting in Peru in October 2010, the council said.
At the ministerial meeting, Hu presented a report on the loss of lives in the aquaculture sector due to the Typhoon Morakot that devastated Taiwan in August 2009 and the country's rebuilding efforts after the disaster, the council said. In addition, Hu expressed Taiwan's willingness to contribute to the international society by establishing an information exchange platform and holding seminars to help APEC members share disaster prevention technologies and experiences, as the world faces climate change and extreme weather.
Chern Jenn-chuan, the Public Construction Commission Minister and CEO of the Morakot Post-Disaster Reconstruction Council, was the keynote speaker at the seminar. He discussed the results of the rebuilding efforts by people from all walks of life in the past two years, after the Typhoon Morakot hit Taiwan and caused massive floods and landslides in the country. Experts from Taiwan, Japan, the Philippines, Australia and Indonesia also discussed the response mechanisms to climate change and natural disasters in aquaculture policies. Meanwhile, experts from the 18 countries presented reports and described measures to cope with climate change. They also attempted to formulate a possible code of action to promote the sustainability of the fishing and aquaculture industries, the council said.
In recent years, the likelihood of natural disasters has increased, the council said, with extreme weather such as torrential rain, drought, heat waves, cold waves and even multiple disasters impacting the industry, especially fishing and aquaculture, in every country. A United Nations report in 2009 pointed out that the Asia-Pacific had experienced frequent natural disasters, with 70 percent of all severe disasters occurring in this area. The report also noted that climate change would only increase the possibility of disasters in the region and their severity. Therefore, mitigating and adapting to the impact of climate change and extreme weather was a key consideration for the Taiwanese government in its development plans for its industries, the council said.
By inviting representatives from APEC countries, officials of the APEC Ocean and Fisheries Working Group, and business leaders and experts in the fields of climate change and ocean preservation, the seminar was able to discuss reports on the impact of extreme weather on aquaculture and analyze the response strategies of different countries. The discussions held and conclusions reached during the seminar will be summed up and submitted with suggestions for the APEC Ocean and Fisheries Working Group at meetings of the senior officials from APEC's member countries, the council said.

It's Don Muhlbach Appreciation Day…
Posted By: Chris May 2, 2016
… because we say it is. There's great reason to celebrate Muhlbach and everything he has brought to this team during his tenure in Detroit.
In the 6th round of the 2016 NFL Draft, the Lions used pick number 210 on long snapper Jimmy Landes. While he signed a 1-year deal in March, this very likely spells the end of a career for the Lions' long snapper since 2004.
Don Muhlbach was great for the Detroit Lions
Don Muhlbach was an undrafted free agent signed by the Baltimore Ravens in 2004. On November 10th, 2004 the Lions found themselves in need of a new long snapper to replace the injured Jody Littleton. Upon signing him, the GM Matt Millen labeled Muhlbach the "Nolan Ryan of long snappers". It could be said that signing Muhlbach is possibly the only good thing Matt Millen ever did for the Detroit Lions. At minimum, it was one of the few times that Millen's bluster was warranted.
Muhlbach's career got off to quite a bumpy start. On December 20, 2004, Joey Harrington led the team 80 yards downfield in just 90 seconds as the clock wound down against the Minnesota Vikings. When the Lions lined up for the field goal, Muhlbach bounced the snap to Nick Harris with just 8 seconds left in the game. As a result, the Lions missed the game-tying field goal attempt and an opportunity for an overtime comeback. Even with that mistake, the team stayed faithful to Muhlbach, and he hasn't botched a single snap since. Not only has he only botched a single snap in his career, he's only missed one game. That was back in 2005 as a result of having a concussion.
Muhlbach was deservedly named to his first Pro Bowl in 2012 when he was chosen by Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy to join the team.
As fans, we never want to think about watching our teams play without the legends that made us fall in love with them, however Lions fans should likely begin preparations for life without the great long snapper, Don Muhlbach.
Here's a video tribute from our friend Sandman, one of the finest Lions highlight producers:

The pandemic has expanded the board's focus on human capital management (HCM). The "great resignation" has only intensified this trend. Beyond executive succession and compensation, boards are sharpening their focus on talent strategy; diversity, equity, and inclusion; culture; employee wellbeing; and more. How are HCM issues being built into board and committee charters? Which topics are covered? What are best practices for how boards and compensation committees are engaging on HCM? How are boards allocating responsibilities and decision rights across committees, the board, and management? When is it right to include HCM metrics in incentives?

Q: Developer tools (F12) internet explorer empty console but not with firefox I have a Web Service in C# and I tested it with the developper tools (F12) of Firefox.
I can see my executions when I walk on my site in the console of developper tools.
Here is a picture :

But with Internet Explorer, the console displays nothing.

How can I do to see executions as in firefox? It is not possible?

A: Only Firebug will show you this kind of information in the console. Most of the other browsers will show that in their "Network" panel (actually Firebug shows it there too).
For IE, once in the Network panel, you will also have to click on "Start Capturing". You should then be able to see what is happening on your page.
More information here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg130952(v=vs.85).aspx
Another option would be to install Firebug for IE (https://getfirebug.com/firebuglite)

More news about: SUNY Potsdam
Turnovers at the wrong time and some timely three-point baskets by host Clarkson University did in the SUNY Potsdam men's basketball team on Saturday afternoon as the Golden Knights pulled away late for a 78-62 nonconference victory.
The Bears (1-2 overall) received a monster game from senior forward Rob Duquette (Peru, N.Y. / Peru), who a shot a perfect 8-of-8 from the floor and 6-of-9 from the free throw line to finish off with game highs of 22 points and 17 rebounds.
But it wasn't enough.
The Bears led 27-23 at halftime and held a 49-47 lead as late at 9:22 remaining in the second half on junior guard/forward Zac Adams' (Potsdam, N.Y. / Potsdam) offensive rebound and put back lay up.
But the Golden Knights took the lead back almost immediately on a John Coleman three-pointer. It was followed soon after by a Coleman lay up and a jumper after consecutive turnovers by the Bears.
Combined with a pair of free throws by Jeremy Liss and Clarkson had turned in a 9-0 run that put them up 56-49 with 7:55 remaining.
Potsdam would not challenge to take the lead again.
The Bears shot well from the field, connecting on 46.3 percent of its shots. The team was hampered by a disparity in points off turnovers with Clarkson holding a 33-4 advantage.
Adams contributed with 14 points, two steals and a block while freshman forward Josh Blagrove (Brooklyn, N.Y. / Bishop Ford) chipped in eight points in 16 minutes before fouling out.
Clarkson (3-1 overall) was led by Marques Charlton, who shot 7-of-14 from the field to finish with 19 points, and Coleman, who ended up with 18 points, eight rebounds and two steals.
Potsdam will continue its road trip with a visit to Skidmore College on Tuesday at 7 p.m.

Jeff CarlisleU.S. soccer correspondent
Jeff Carlisle covers MLS and the U.S. national team for ESPN FC.
David Beckham's Inter Miami is "very close" to agreeing to personal terms with Juventus striker Gonzalo Higuain, a source has told ESPN.
TyC Sports reported on Wednesday that the two sides have already agreed to terms. However, sources told ESPN that talks are still ongoing.
The Athletic has also reported that Miami has obtained Higuain's discovery rights -- akin to a right of first refusal -- from D.C. United, which would clear the way for the player to head to South Florida.
Higuain, 32, is free to leave Juventus after new manager Andrea Pirlo said the Argentine striker is not in his plans. If the Miami deal is completed, Higuain would join former Juventus teammate Blaise Matuidi in Miami, as well as his older brother, D.C. United's Federico Higuain, in MLS.
Gonzalo Higuain has been a professional for 15 years, the bulk of that time coming in Europe with some of the game's biggest clubs. After breaking through with River Plate in 2005, Higuain moved to Real Madrid in 2007. He has since gone to play for Napoli and Juventus, as well as loan spells with Milan and Chelsea. All told, Higuain has made 640 league and cup appearances at club level, scoring 306 goals.
From 2009 until 2018, Higuain was a consistent international presence with Argentina, making 75 appearances and scoring 31 goals. He was part of World Cup squads in 2010, 2014 and 2018.


San Diego boys talk surfing, explain lyrics, and genuflect to Bono.
"We are meant to live for so much more," goes the chorus to Switchfoot's current hit. It's pretty indicative of where the San Diego band stands. While others might be in it for the money or the girls, Switchfoot are after bigger game. They want to move hearts and get people thinking.
It's a lofty goal for a bunch of surfing buddies. Singer/guitarist John Foreman and his bass-playing brother Tim first made friends with keyboardist Jermoe Fontamillas while riding giants. The three of them competed in national surf championships and had sponsorship deals, too. But inspired by U2, the Beatles and Elliott Smith, they chose rock as their true calling.
With Chad Butler on drums, Switchfoot have stuck it out over the course of four albums, slowly winning converts. Their followers are dedicated to their inspirational music and rapturous live shows. They've played with the likes of Evanescence and P.O.D., and while they may not be on first name terms with Radiohead yet, they did bum-rush the Brit band's recording studio.
Their newest, The Beautiful Letdown, is anything but. "Meant to Live" introduced the world to their anthemic brand of uplift, and "Dare You to Move" looks set to follow. As the Switchfoot crusade continues, VH1 sat down with the band to talk about how they gave Bono forty bucks and why it's okay to be earnest sometimes.
VH1: How did you all first meet?
VH1: Switchfoot is a surfing term, right? What does it mean?
Jonathan: It's putting a different foot forward than you normally would, which changes the way you're facing on the wave. In skateboarding or snowboarding, it's a little more functional. In surfing, it's more of a fun thing to do [when] the waves are small and you're goofing around with your buddies. For me, it implies change, and that's something we latched onto from the beginning.
VH1: Ben Harper says songs come to him while he's surfing. Has that happened to you?
Jonathan: Sometimes you get songs like that. Surfing's a very rhythmic thing. Most of the time you spend on your stomach paddling, like right/left, right/left. It lends itself to more of the four-four type songs. A lot of times you get really horrible songs stuck in your head and you're thinking like, "Oh, I need to get this song out!" Maybe that's how you write a new one.
VH1: Tell me about "Meant to Live."
Jonathan: It's a song I wrote in a period of my life when I was stuck in a rut. Although the song's in third person, I tend to think it's more about me. I sing the lyrics like that, talking about myself. The verses are a bit darker, going over failures of my own. The chorus is a little bit more hopeful. It's reminding myself that we're meant to live for more than a new car or a new TV, a new this that or the other.
VH1: Explain the line "We want more than the wars of our fathers."
Jonathan: It's a strange line to have in there, especially when the Iraq war came about and you have two different George Bushes as president. But I actually wrote it before the war had started. Where I was coming from was a little more along the lines of the wars that have raged since the dawn of time. There's something inside of us that's burning and fighting and a lot of times we find a release from that in destroying each other and how ridiculous is that?
VH1: Were you recognized in the street before the record hit?
Jonathan: [jokingly] Well Jermoe was already pretty famous with his starring roles in B-movies and the Michael Jackson videos.
Tim: [jokingly] I wear a moustache disguise in public. In airports and stuff like that, people come up and get autographs now. It's fun to meet people, as long as you can keep it on that level where it's still a conversation. That's what we're always trying to do, break down that weirdness between the stage and the crowd.
VH1: What's behind the next single "Dare You to Move"?
Jonathan: I like songs that kind of go different places. That's what this one is. Live, it really comes into its own, when you can have a thousand people screaming it back at you. It feels like a family.
Tim: That's what we all love about live music and going to see a band. You never know what's going to happen. I think we feed off that reckless type of approach, where anything can happen.
Chad Butler: It drives me crazy! [Laughter] [I have to] try to play different every song!
VH1: Are you thinking about that communal experience when you're writing a song?
Jonathan: Sometimes. The ironic thing is a lot of these songs are almost like diary entries. When you write a song that's super-personal, you don't know if people are going to understand it. One thing I've learned is a lot of times the most personal songs I've ever written are in fact the most universal. Pain, frustration, love, hate, and fear are all things inside here [points to chest]. But we've all been through it. So you can't write for everyone. You have to start right here.
VH1: Do you have any funny stories about the making of The Beautiful Letdown?
Jonathan: We were mixing the record right next door to where Radiohead was cutting their record. So the first day we arrived, we're trying to act like we know what we're doing. The lady at the front desk kind of directs us where to go, but we got the wrong room. We ended up in Radiohead's room, but we think it's our room! I'm thinking, "This is awesome! Radiohead are just hanging out in our studio!" I listened to Radiohead for years. Them and Ben Folds Five got me through college. So there's Tommy Yorke [sic] and Jonny Greenwood. And I'm like, "This is great. How you guys doing? What's happening?!" And I'm sure they're thinking like, "Who is this prick coming through the studio acting like he's supposed to be here?"
VH1: You're also big supporters of DATA, the organization Bono helped start for African relief.
Jonathan: It was an eye-opener for me. This is an organization that is really user-friendly and it's for an amazing cause. Seven thousand people a day are dying, most of them from AIDS. But it's [about] debt, AIDS, trade, Africa. [There's] a trade imbalance. It's debt they owe to these large First World banks. Basically, it's a war that can be won, so we've just been telling people to check it out. Go to Data.org for more info.
VH1: What happened when you met Bono?
Jonathan: What do you say to Bono? For me, The Joshua Tree was the record. My friends tried to blow [the CD] up because they heard it too many times. I gave him $40 and told him that was for sneaking into their show in London a couple of years back. He was very cool about it. He told me about how he used to sneak into shows when he was a kid. He gave me the money back, which was important, because that was the only $40 I had at the time! He's a very gracious man.
VH1: A while ago it wasn't cool to be so earnest. What made you decide, this is the way we want to be?
Tim: I think if you're going to be on the road 355 days out of the year and just really pouring your heart into the music, it's got to be songs that you're passionate about. I don't think any of us could do this for four albums if we didn't believe in it.
VH1: What have the kids said about what your songs mean to them?
Tim: Whether it was Bob Dylan or Bob Marley or James Taylor, there are a lot of songs that got me through hard times growing up. To have a kid come up after a show and say, I was really contemplating suicide and I heard your song, what do you say to that? That's obviously much bigger than just four guys playing music. But it's an amazing feeling.
VH1: That's a big responsibility.
Jonathan: It's not because we play rock n' roll we have a responsibility. It's just because you're alive. Somebody is looking up to you and watching what you're doing and what you're singing about. Even if it's five kids that came to the show, and no one else cares but those five kids, you better sing your heart out.

On Discrete Killing Vector Fields and Patterns on Surfaces
Mirela Ben-Chen, Adrian Butscher, Justin Solomon, Leonidas Guibas
Symmetry is one of the most important properties of a shape, unifying form and function. It encodes semantic information on one hand, and affects the shape's aesthetic value on the other. Symmetry comes in many flavors, amongst the most interesting being intrinsic symmetry, which is defined only in terms of the intrinsic geometry of the shape. Continuous intrinsic symmetries can be represented using infinitesimal rigid transformations, which are given as tangent vector fields on the surface - known as Killing Vector Fields. As exact symmetries are quite rare, especially when considering noisy sampled surfaces, we propose a method for relaxing the exact symmetry constraint to allow for approximate symmetries and approximate Killing Vector Fields, and show how to discretize these concepts for generating such vector fields on a triangulated mesh. We discuss the properties of approximate Killing Vector Fields, and propose an application to utilize them for texture and geometry synthesis.

Q: C++: Overloading << operator with function pointers I have a class "stampstream" that is essentially intended to work like 'cout'. The two functions that follow are outside the class. This is the part that works.
class stampstream: public std::ostream
{
    //code
    stampstream& operator<<(stampstream& (*x)(void))
    {
        //code
    }
    //code
};

stampstream& endr()
{
    //nocode
}

stampstream& (*endrow)(void)=endr;

In main:
stampstream s;
s << "teststring1" << endrow;

Note that "endrow" is essentially 'endl'. This part works perfectly fine, compiles and executes with the right output.
Now, I'm trying to overload << with another possible row(int) function. This is the part that doesn't work. Again, it's part of the same class as above and the following 2 functions are outside the class.
class stampstream: public std::ostream
{
    //code
    stampstream& operator<<(stampstream& (*r)(int y))
    {
        //code
    }
    //code
};

stampstream& ro(int y)
{
    //nocode
}

stampstream& (*row)(int)=ro;

In main:
s << "teststring2" << row(5);

This is the error I get:
error: invalid user-defined conversion from 'stampstream' to 'stampstream& (*)(int)' [-fpermissive]

What am I doing wrong with row ?

A: The problem is that in
s << "teststring2" << row(5);

function call has higher precedence than <<, so this calls the function row points at and then tries to pass its return value (a stampstream &) to operator<<.
What you want is
s << "teststring2" << row;

This doesn't call the function and instead passes the pointer to operator<<.  Inside that function, when you want to call x, you'll need to provide the argument.
It sounds like what you are trying to do is to have a function row that creates a functor object that you can then pass to operator<<.  You can do that in C++11 with a lambda:
class stampstream: public std::ostream
{
    //code
    stampstream& operator<<(std::function<stampstream&(void)> r)
    {
        //code
    }
    //code
};

std::function<stampstream&(void)> row(int x)
{
    return [x]()->stampstream & {
        //code
    }
}

Which you can call as:
s << "teststring2" << row(5);

The call to row happens first, which constructs a lambda and returns it (but doesn't yet run the code in it).  The functor is passed to operator<< and when that function calls r, it will call the code in the lambda (which can refer to the x param, which was bound by value, so copied into the lambda.)

A: Since Chris has already answered your question, I wanted to advise you of alternatives to your current method:

*

*Your stampstream class should use a specialized std::streambuf that writes out the stamp inside overflow(). There's no need to extend an std::ostream and reimplement the input operators. For an example of how to do this, see this thread.

*You seem to be using endrow and row like manipulators. Operator overloads already exist for manipulators that do not take arguments at the call site. You can have endrow take and return an object of type std::ostream&. For row you can have it return a class that overloads the inserter to allow the syntax you want:
struct row_impl
{
    row_impl(int row) : row(row) { }
    // Write out the row and return the stream
    friend std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& os, row_impl const& rimpl);
private:
    int row;
};

std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& os, row_impl const& rimpl)
{
    // This is where the code for your original row() function goes
}

// write out to and return the stampstream instance
std::ostream& endrow(std::ostream& os);

row_impl row(int row)
{
    return row_impl(row);
}

Now s << endrow and s << row(5) will work without having to add anything to your stampstream class.

Square Enix Ready To "Evolve" Front Mission?
By Siliconera Staff April 14, 2009
A trademark filed by Square Enix implies just that. Square Enix registered Front Mission Evolved in the US for use with video games among other silly things like mouse pads and song books. Regardless of the myriad classifications, Front Mission Evolved is probably for a new Front Mission game, but which one?
Will this be the international subtitle for Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness? Possible, but a mobile phone to DS port hardly counts as an evolution.
I'm leaning towards a brand new Front Mission game. Perhaps, one that comes out here. However, Square Enix registered other trademarks related to Front Mission like Scars of War which remained in only in Japan.

Q: Group By Hour using UNIX time stamp in mongodb I required records with the output of gender, count, and updated hour for two days.
db.FaceData.aggregate([ {$match: { 'Timestamp' : { $gte : 1448121600000, $lt : 1448294399000 }, 'DID' : "ABFR001" }},  {$group: { _id: {'Gen': '$Gen'},  count : { $sum : 1 } }}  ]);
output:
 ------
{ "_id" : { "Gen" : 1 }, "count" : 3055 }
{ "_id" : { "Gen" : 0 }, "count" : 2866 }

In the above output I have to group by hour for two days, For Example, Every hour I need Gender, Count for 2days.
Timestamp is in millisecond.

A: You would need a mechanism to get the actual date object from the unix timestamp, one way is to add the timestamp to a zero-milliseconds Date() object, using the $add operator in the $project stage before the actual grouping aggregation pipeline.
Once you get the date, extract the hour part by using the $hour operator, something like the following:
db.FaceData.aggregate([
    {
        "$match": {
            "Timestamp" : { $gte : 1448121600000, $lt : 1448294399000 },
            "DID" : "ABFR001"
        }
    },
    {
        $project : {
            "hourPart" : {
                "$hour": { "$add": [ new Date(0), "$Timestamp" ] }
            },
            "Gen": 1
        }
    },
    {
        "$group": {
            "_id": "$hourPart",
            "Gen_0_count" : {
                "$sum": {
                    "$cond": [ { "$eq": [ "$Gen", 0 ] }, 1, 0 ]
                }
            },
            "Gen_1_count" : {
                "$sum": {
                    "$cond": [ { "$eq": [ "$Gen", 1 ] }, 1, 0 ]
                }
            }
        }
    }
]);

Q: Unwanted Padding On Widget Areas I have made a 3 column widget area on Wordpress, however it appears that there is padding. Ive amended the margin, however its still not resizing the widget area to fit inside my "sidebar".
This is my site:
www.mammacoil.com
This is my CSS
#footer-widgets {
display: block;
width:950px;
margin-left:-50px;
background: #000000;
}
#footer-widget1 {
width: 260px;
float: left;
margin: 15px 10px 10px 15px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #000000;
border: 1px solid #fff;
}
#footer-widget2 {
width: 260px;
float: left;
margin: 15px 10px 10px 15px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #000000;
border: 1px solid #fff;
}
#footer-widget3 {
width: 260px;
float: left;
margin: 15px 10px 10px 15px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #000000;
border: 1px solid #fff;
}

THIS IS NOW RESOLVED

A: You have used id footer-widget1 twice, which isn't valid HTML.
I recommend taking the id off the inner #footer-widget1 and applying a different style.
This will resolve your padding issue.


As you search the internet, you won't find it difficult to collect information on the IT Manager career path. From responsibilities to salary data, you're never hurting for guidance.
However, there is no reason to automatically assume that your company needs to hire an IT Manager. While this is the right move for some, others soon come to find that they don't have to go down this path.
Small company. Let's face it: you may not have the money and other resources to hire an IT Manager at the present time. If your company is small, if this is not an essential position, you need to think twice before making this decision. You may be better off hiring for other positions, and then revisiting this idea in the future.
You can do it all yourself. Depending on your skill set, you may be comfortable with handling all IT related tasks on your own. This isn't to say that you will never need help, but many business owners find that they are more than capable of dealing with anything and everything that comes their way (in regards to security).
There is outside help to be had. If something comes up that you are unable to handle, you can always reach out to an IT professional for assistance. There are firms that specialize in this, which is more than enough to give you the confidence you need to reach out. Once you find somebody you can trust, you can be rest assured that they are able to provide assistance whenever you need it in the future – and there is nothing more important than this peace of mind.
You are proactive. Some business owners think that nothing bad will ever happen to their company. For this reason, they never even think about hiring an IT Manager. They also never think about needing the assistance of a third party. Then there are those who are proactive, always taking steps to ensure that nothing bad happens from an IT point of view. If you're proactive on your own, you may not need an IT professional on staff.
It goes without saying that there are many things an IT Manager can do for a small or medium sized business. This is why you should at least consider bringing one of these professionals into your company.
As noted above, you don't have to make this decision. There are companies out there who are just fine without having an IT Manager on staff. It's your job to decide where you fit in.
Do you need an IT manager? Can you do without? Once you're confident in where things stand, you can move forward and never look back.
Final tip: there is nothing wrong with trying to get along without an IT manager to see if you can get by. You can always adjust your approach in the future if necessary.
Does your company have an IT Manager on staff? Are you thinking about hiring one in the future? Are you going to move forward without the help of this type of professional? Share your many thoughts in the comment section below.

Retailers are capitalizing on the fact that we love a bargain. So much so that they have turned one of the most popular days to give thanks into a shopping day. It's retailers gone wild! Why open stores on Thursday and have your employees work from 7-11, it seems unAmerican in some respects. On the flip side, it does help out those that have been out of work to get in some hours and make that much-needed income.
I still find it all too much. Although we should be giving thanks everyday, this is a mandatory day that makes us stop even when we don't want to and give thanks. Not even that is sacred anymore. Although some might say that at the present time they have nothing to really be thankful for, no job, no money and no silver lining in sight. But, there is much to be thankful for as long as you are breathing. And perhaps retailers should take the time to give their employees the time to be with their families. Perhaps employees and shoppers should have a little protest of their own and not OCCUPY RETAILERS. Instead stay home, relax, cook, argue with family, eat some pumpkin pie, watch a football game and just celebrate Thanksgiving.
Just pointing out the obvious, figure it out amongst yourselves….
Fashion Law: What Is It & Who Cares?
Good question! It seems that this area of law is growing from the Fashion Law Institute to the newly formed committee at the New York City Bar. But, is it an area of law where there is a need for attorneys? Yes & No. Yes, because of course Fashion is a business and with any business there are legal implications, real estate, protections of intellectual property rights, contractual agreements, employment issues, and the list can go on. However, in more instances you find that the everyday business of fashion are done by those that are actually fashion industry professionals. Those that really know about merchandising, licensing of the products, branding and marketing. These people hold MBA's and/or attended a fashion school to become versed in the industry or business itself.
So, where do we lawyers fit in? Well, this is the perfect place to explore that very question, perhaps it will answer a few questions for you as well. Maybe even let us attorneys know whether the fashion industry cares about utilizing the legal skills offered. Or perhaps attorneys that have an interest in this area have to adapt more to the fashion industry.


After being steady for two weeks, chicken prices fell marginally this week due to oversupply as farmers unload their stocks in anticipation of brisk pre-New Year's Day sales.
The farm price of live broilers has dropped to THB32-33/kg from THB33-34/kg last week, according to a survey by the Internal Trade Department. At public markets in Bangkok, chicken meat now sells at THB60-62/kg, down from THB62-63/kg last week. In the provinces, it sells at THB55-56/kg, the department said.
Despite sluggish domestic consumption caused by a big drop in tourist arrivals, the farm price of live chicken stabilized at THB33-34/kg the past two weeks because of good overseas sales.
Dr. Anan Sirimongkolkasem, president of the Thai Broilers Exporters Association, said that despite the current global financial meltdown, overseas shipments to both Japan and the EU, Thailand's main chicken markets, continued to register positive growths at least until the end of the year.
Next year, he said, export sales are expected to drop 5 percent as the global turns from bad to worse.
Meanwhile, after falling to as low as THB6.20-6.40 a kilogramme early this week, feed corn prices have started to go up after silo operators around the country agreed to store corn harvests for free for at least one month while farmers wait for the government to resume its price-support scheme.
In a bid to stabilize the price of local corn harvests, the government had been buying corn at a guaranteed price of THB8.50/kg, THB2 more than current market price. But the scheme recently ran out of cash after its quota of 500,000 tonnes was reached.
The scheme, started late October, was originally scheduled to run until Dec. 30. But officials said the quota was filled unusually quickly.
"There is thus a possibility certain crooked traders have smuggled products across the borders and used farmers' proxies to participate in the scheme," said Yanyong Phuangrach, director-general of the Internal Trade Department.
He added that he found it "strange that despite the buying programme, prices of maize have yet to improve."
In a deal brokered by local government officials, silo operators promised to buy the corn stored by them at prevailing market prices if the government does not resume its buying scheme within one month.

Q: Storing and accessing an array of struct from shared memory I am writing a program on a hotel reservation system and have declared a struct Room as follows:
struct Room {
bool isavailable;
bool ispaid;
string customer;
string date;
};

I use a variable read from an input file to create an array of n structs which is all the rooms in the hotel.
struct Room* rooms = new Room[numOfRooms];

I then create the shared memory space and attach it, but when I try to access it after, it doesn't seem to work.
//creates shared memory space
if((shmid = shmget(shmkey, 1000, IPC_CREAT | 0666)) < 0) {
    perror("Failed to allocate shared mem");
    exit(1);
}

//attaches shared memory to process
Room* shared_memory;
shared_memory = (Room* ) shmat(shmid, NULL, 0);
if(!shared_memory) {
    perror("Error attaching");
    exit(0);
}

struct Room *PTR = rooms; //temp pointer to rooms array
cout << "test: " << rooms[1].customer << endl; //print before storing in shared memory
rooms = (struct Room*) shared_memory+sizeof(int); //places rooms array in shared memory
delete [] PTR; //deletes the memory location where rooms was stored before being in shared memory
cout << "test: " << rooms[1].customer << endl; //print after storing in shared mem

As you can see I have a cout statement before moving rooms into shared memory which prints the correct thing, but the after cout is empty. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

A: rooms = (struct Room*) shared_memory+sizeof(int); //places rooms array in shared memory
This line does not do what your comment says. First, shared_memory is already declared as Room* shared_memory so the cast is unnecessary. Adding sizeof(int) (let's assume that is 4) to a pointer will make the pointer point to the 4th such element, that is if shared_memory was pointing to the first element of a Room arr[N] array, the expression shared_memory + i is equal to &arr[i]. In this case, shared_memory+sizeof(int) is a pointer to the 4th (or sizeof(int)'th) element -- or rather where that element would be in the shared_memory because you just created the shared memory and haven't put any actual Rooms in there yet.
Finally, rooms = ... just assigns a value to the pointer. So now the rooms variable (which is a pointer, just a number basically) points to the place where the 4th Room object in the shared_memory array would be. It's not copying the array created with new Room[numOfRooms] or anything like that.
See also: How do pointer to pointers work in C?
What you want to do is copy the objects into shared memory. For that in general you could use std::copy like so:
std::copy(&rooms[0], &rooms[numOfRooms], shared_memory);

But the problem will be that std::string contains a pointer to a char array which you can assume to be allocated with new char[length_of_string]. (This is a simplified version of the truth, but enough for this.) The std::copy above will not move this internal array into shared memory, therefore it will not work if you map the shared memory in another process and access the string data. (You might read memory garbage or you might segfault when trying to access unmapped memory.) To solve this, you need to use an allocator type that can allocate from the shared memory, or store strings inline with something like a struct ShortString{ char data[/*max length*/ 20]; }. You'll want to search for or post another question if you need help with that.

'I'm on top of the world!' - North Pole triumph for St Albans adventurer Ed Suttie
Published: 4:00 PM May 3, 2016
Ed Suttie's mission to the North Pole - Credit: Archant
Mission accomplished, explorer Ed Suttie is back in St Albans after completing his epic trek to the North Pole.
The polar adventurer reported reaching the top of the world after a 230km expedition on his blog: "At 17:30 on 21 April 2016 we reached the geographical North Pole. An incredible journey over the frozen Arctic Ocean to a spot where every direction is south and you can walk around the world in a few seconds. It has been an experience that will live with me forever.
"What an utterly overwhelming feeling of joy and relief at having reached our goal. You have to be quick though, the ice we are standing on is drifting at around 100m an hour so we followed the Pole for a while before camping nearby."
The Herts Advertiser caught up with Ed on Tuesday after he returned to his home in Verulam Road, and found him surprisingly alert despite his exhausting journey, albeit 5kg lighter after all of his exertions.
"I'm feeling quite chipper actually! I got back on Monday night after spending a few days decompressing and acclimatising at Svarlbard, and had my first night of darkness in four weeks.
"It was the most incredible experience. It really is the most staggering environment and quite hard to describe. The whole of the Arctic ice is the size of Europe, which is a mindblowing thought, especially as there were only about 100 people there at this one time. It was as if it was another planet, it's just hard to imagine there are seven billion other people elsewhere in the world."
The team completed between 12 and 19km a day, depending on the terrain, and Ed explained: "It is a really free and open space, which allows you to cogitate and think.
10 Sex pervert jailed for six and a half years
"We were with one of the best guides in the world, but there is still an odd sense of vulnerability in being in the middle of nowhere, with your only lifelines your fuel for the store, the battery for the radio and the kit you rely on. The kit was brilliant, but it's very hard to do anything in mittens!"
The beginning of the expedition had been plagued by delays when the ice runway at Barneo cracked twice, and needed to be rebuilt a third time: "There was so much uncertainty when we arrived, and the first days were very tough with what seemed like a terminal wait to set off. At times we thought it wasn't going to happen, as this was the longest delay for an expedition in 15 years.
"There is a very short window in April before the summer cycle starts and the ice begins to break up, during which time they bring in the runway, and it actually closed yesterday (Monday).
"We spent the time acclimatising to the cold - it was -15C at Svarlbard but when you're in Barneo it was closer to -40C, so there was a big decrease."
Once the team finally set off on April 13, it took them just eight days to travel to the Pole.
"The physical side was difficult, as you had to get into a routine, work out the structure of the day, putting the camp up and so on, but we had a really great team.
"They were absolute stars, and I think we'll all be friends for life, which is amazing considering our totally different backgrounds. But we all had the same objective, and we all looked out for each other."
Now comfortably back home, Ed is enjoying spending time with wife Clare and children Madeleine, Alex and James, but hasn't ruled out the possibility of another extreme adventure in the future.
"I would probably do something like this again, not necessarily polar, but never say never."
Ed, 49, embarked on his mission in aid of Cancer Research, Rennie Grove Hospice Care, Earthworks and the UK Heritage Trust.
He has now raised about £46K, but is planning to give talks to schools and businesses in the hope of reaching a new target of £50,000.
You can still donate to his ice trek challenge here.

In Which Flavor of Glass Did You Want That Drink?
By Eric Burkett
You're at a party and you've just finished your drink. What do you do with the empty cup? The obvious solution, of course, is to eat it. If the efforts of a New York design firm pan out, edible beverage containers may become a standard item on the lists of party planners everywhere.
Made from agar agar,
a seaweed product used as a thickening agent much as one might use gelatin, Jelloware can hold cold beverages for up to four hours before they begin to break down. Even better, one ounce of agar agar has less than 10 calories. Even better, in an earth-friendly, crunchy-granola-kind-of-way, you can simply toss the empty container out on the lawn. Once it's out there with the lawn gnomes and the gophers, the cup will disintegrate within about a week, feeding the grass to boot, according to Chelsea Brigante, one of the four designers who make up the firm The Way We See the World.
"You can nibble on the cup while you drink," said Brigante in an interview from New York. Why would you want to? Taste. Jelloware comes in three flavors so far: lemon-basil, ginger-mint, and rosemary-beet. The designers are also at work on a heat-tolerant version, milk and sugar- flavored for coffee, of course.
This is more than just a novelty, Brigante insists. "We're definitely excited about the idea of being able to replace plastic cups and Dixie cups," she said. The firm is currently in negotiations with a possible manufacturer but there are other, practical, obstacles to overcome in the meanwhile.
One of the issues the cup faces is shelf-life. Right now, the cups are made without preservatives which puts a slight damper on their sale potential, to say nothing of the fact they have to be refrigerated for longer-term use. (One can imagine that argument: "Honey, there's no place to put the milk!") While they don't object to the idea of using some sort of preservative, the four women who make up the firm are eager to maintain the integrity of the material.
So, when do they expect Jelloware to hit the market? If things go smoothly, maybe about a year, said Brigante.
In the meanwhile, hold on to your glass. You'll need it for the next round.

Q: How to get window.focus() to work in firefox Does anyone have a clue on how to be able to use window.focus() in FireFox? (27.0.1).
I have tried all the about:config settings out there but still no luck.
My code looks something like this:
var wi = window.open('myUrl');
wi.focus();

== EDIT ==
I'm trying to make this work in FireFox on my machine, not for any other users so please
refrain from the standard "let your users decide" or "it depends on the user's settings" as
I want to get this to work for a local project :)

A: According to Window.focus specification from Mozilla, that's not possible. It depends on the user's settings.
Makes a request to bring the window to the front. It may fail due to user settings and the window isn't guaranteed to be frontmost before this method returns.

A: Tools > Options, Content area, "Advanced" button to the right of "Enable JavaScript" should give you the option to allow this behavior. If you're on Linux, the navigation might be slightly different.
Note, it is generally considered best practice to allow the user to choose what window should be in focus.
EDIT:
This is about:config you're referring to: dom.disable_window_flip
In FF 27.0.1 I am able to open a new window with focus by providing window name and option parameters to window.open, and then calling focus.
var wi = window.open('http://www.google.com', 'window_name', 'height=200,width=200');
wi.focus();

Example here: http://jsfiddle.net/CLVh2/
For Chrome support, you'll want to check out: Google Chrome "window.open" workaround?
EDIT: FOR TAB SUPPORT
If you want to open a tab and give the tab focus in FF (27.0.1), and simply calling window.open('url') is not giving you the desired result, try checking the "When I open a new tab, switch to it immediately" option. It can be found in Tools > Options > Tabs


USS Botetourt was a Haskell-class attack transport laid down on August 22, 1944 and launched on October 19, the same year. It was commissioned for the first time on January 31, 1945 under Comdr. William A. Barr's command, with the hull number APA-136 and it served in the US Navy for 11 years until it was decommissioned on April 27, 1956. During its activity, the ship carried a complement of 536 people onboard and had the main missions in California, Espiritu Santo, San Pedro, Manila, San Diego, Manila, Norfolk or Oran. After the decommissioning, the ship was struck from the Navy List on July 1, 1961 and sold for scrapping in 1974.
