Have Healthcare Organizations Been Overlooking Key Components of Telemedicine?
Staff - Wednesday, January 18th, 2012
Telemedicine and telehealth have been gaining support from federal and state organizations as a means to improve healthcare delivery across the country and beyond. In September, for instance, the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration granted the University of Virginia and several others approximately $1 million each over three years to create telehealth resource centers. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has also awarded grants — totaling approximately $6 million at the end of November for telehealth and other healthcare projects and more than $30 million in December for telemedicine projects.
The major focus of recent telemedicine projects, however, seems to be on real-time video-audio communication. Have hospitals and health systems been overlooking the two other principal components of telemedicine — email and telephone? Douglas Smith, MD, CMO of telemedicine company Consult A Doctor and co-founder of the MinuteClinic, explains why telemedicine shouldn't only be about high-definition images and high-end equipment.
Telemedicine benefits
Telemedicine offers multiple benefits for both healthcare providers and patients, including increased access to care, coordinated care and reduced costs. "Telemedicine is the next evolution of increasing access to medical care, a virtual way to get back to the days when the general practitioner was accessible to a patient when [he or she] needed to be seen," Dr. Smith says. This "virtual general practitioner" can help patients access care and help hospitals and other healthcare organizations access patients by connecting hospitals and clinics with specialty physicians, other hospitals and clinics and patients outside the local community, Dr. Smith says. In addition, telemedicine can expand the global reach of healthcare organizations, enabling them to provide third-world nations with infrastructure needed to access care.
Dr. Smith also sees a role for telemedicine in accountable care organizations. He says hospitals can use telemedicine to coordinate various specialties and areas of care for patients and to coordinate the care team.
Finally, telemedicine can lower costs by "diverting patients who have non-emergent problems from the emergency room to lower cost settings, including telemedicine consultations via phone, email or video," Dr. Smith says. A report by Blue Sky Consulting Group estimated that a telehealth expansion bill passed in California in October could save up to $408 million annually by using telehealth for home monitoring of heart failure and diabetes.
Telemedicine by phone and email
"Telemedicine encompasses not only video, but telephone and email — all the ways a patient can communicate with a physician without being in the [same] room," Dr. Smith says. He says that while telemedicine via video has only recently gained popularity, telemedicine via phone has been practiced for decades. A lack of documentation and a method of billing for telephone-delivered services may have hindered wide recognition of this vehicle as a legitimate means of telemedicine, Dr. Smith says. However, 93 percent of Consult A Doctor patients use the company's service for telephonic consultations with physicians, although the company also offers consultations via email and video, according to Dr. Smith.
Healthcare providers and patients can expand their options by learning not to rely on video as a sole delivery system but instead using each technology for what it is best suited. "Focusing on what you want to get out of the consultation will help guide what technology [should be] available," Dr. Smith says. For example, he says video telemedicine might be best for a patient recently sent home from the hospital after antibiotic treatment for a skin ulcer because an image of the skin would convey useful information to the physician.
In contrast, a telephonic consultation would be more appropriate for a patient sent home after a heart attack because the video would not contribute any information about the patient's chest pain or other related symptoms the physician would inquire about. "For many of the issues patients are calling in for, video adds very little to the ability to make a diagnosis and treatment [decision]," Dr. Smith says. Even in cases where video may be useful, an email with a photo attachment may do just as well and "is much simpler than doing a real-time video consult," he says.
Overreliance on video telemedicine
If not used appropriately, video telemedicine can recreate instead of solve problems, according to Dr. Smith. Using video telemedicine for a patient's appointment "is an attempt to recreate the clinic visit as a virtual clinic visit," Dr. Smith says. "So, it has the same issues that patients have with regular visits — they don't show up on time, [etc.]." In addition, physicians taking time out of their day to do a video telemedicine appointment with a patient would get paid less than meeting with a patient in the office, creating a disincentive for the practice.
Connecting with a physician over video may also pose a burden to patients, Dr. Smith suggests. "Most patients are comfortable with calling up and talking to a doctor on the phone. Most have done it at some point in their life. [Video] is a little more difficult for them to coordinate," he says. Many patients may not have the technological capabilities for video consultation, for instance, Dr. Smith says.
"From the media and press side they focus on video because it appears to be cutting edge, it looks cool," Dr. Smith says. "But from a practical standpoint of the delivery of care, when it adds something it's nice to have, but it doesn't add something in many consultations. [It can] create a barrier to access, and we need no further barriers to care."
Technological improvements
Dr. Smith says advancements in technology — such as equipment that is more accessible to patients and easier to use for physicians — may give video telemedicine a greater role in healthcare delivery in the years to come. "As technology improves, the ability to do more real-time consultation on the fly [may] occur," Dr. Smith says. Physicians may be more apt to use video consultation if they could fit it into their workflow between appointments because they wouldn't have to sacrifice the more highly reimbursed service of in-office visits.

How Quantum Radar Could Completely Change Warfare
You've heard of stealth aircraft—now meet stealth radar.
By Kyle Mizokami
Vladimir GerdoGetty Images
Quantum radar, for decades merely a concept, was recently demonstrated at science institute in Austria.
Quantum radars can provide much more detailed information about their targets without giving away their position.
Contrary to claims, quantum radars do not make stealth obsolete.
A new high definition radar system that could change the nature of warfare has been demonstrated for the first time. The result, quantum radar, is a high definition detection system that provides a much more detailed image of targets while itself remaining difficult to detect. Quantum radars could provide users with enough detail to identify aircraft, missiles, and other aerial targets by specific model.
According to the MIT Technology Review, researchers at Austria's Institute of Science and Technology used entangled microwaves to create the world's first quantum radar system.
Under a principle known as quantum entanglement, two particles can be linked together regardless of distance, forming what scientists call a quantum entangled pair. When something happens to one particle it can be noticed in the other particle. This in turn leads to a process called quantum illumination, where information about one particle's environment can be inferred by studying the other particle.
Quantum radars involve pairing photon particles together, shooting one downrange while keeping the second captive for observation. The downrange particle will act in a certain manner as it bounces off certain objects, behavior that can be observed in the captive particle. The result is much more detailed information about the target than seen in previous radars.
Today's radars can detect targets very well, but provide little detail. Radars can detect an object and note it's altitude, bearing, and distance, but otherwise the target is a big, featureless blob. Air defenders must rely on other things, such identifying radar and other electromagnetic signals emanating from the target, to discern whether the blob is an enemy fighter, bomber, or even a commercial civilian aircraft.
Quantum radars, on the other hand, could provide enough detail for radar systems to identify the object based on physical characteristics. A Su-35 Flanker-E fighter, for example, could be identified by the sweep of its wings, the shape of its nose, and the number of engines.
A Complicated History
China Says It Made a 'Quantum Radar'
Another benefit of quantum radars: they emit very little energy and are thus difficult to detect. All contemporary radars emit electromagnetic radiation to detect objects. This radiation makes the radar itself detectable. It's a lot like having lots of people holding flashlights in a dark room: turning on your flashlight allows you to find other people but the flashlight beam leads straight back to you, giving away your presence and location.
A lack of detectability offers a distinct tactical advantage in warfare. A friendly quantum radar could detect a flight of enemy aircraft without revealing its own presence. This could cause the enemy warplanes to put off defensively jamming local radars and radio signals—which itself is noticeable to the defenders. Their guard down, they could then be ambushed by friendly air defense missiles and fighters waiting for them.
Quantum radars has been billed as a means for detecting stealth aircraft, with claims that it renders efforts to make aircraft invisible to radar useless. According to three experts polled by Engineering and Technology, anti-stealth claims are a "gross oversimplication" and the main advantage of quantum radar is the high definition aspect.

Strayer's 40K "Blue Flame"
By Massad Ayoob
Posted in #Guns #Skills
In the Ford Motor Company's long history, its most famous and most effective advertising slogan was probably "Ask the man who owns one." The same slogan could work well for Springfield Armory. It would be particularly valuable to ask a man who has not only owned them, but has carried them for years, shot many tens of thousands of rounds through them, and won shooting championships with them.
When John Strayer shows up at a match with his "Blue Flame" XD-M 9mm, everyone takes notice.
One such man to ask would be John Strayer. I've known him and shot with him for more than twenty years, and have lost count of how many matches I've seen him win with Springfield Armory pistols. He has owned John's Lawn Equipment in Live Oak, Florida for many years, and since 2008 he and his wife Terri have also owned the ProArms Gun Shop. Here's his story.
Gateway Springfield
A longtime recreational shooter, Strayer was married to a lady who had won a national championship title in NRA Hunter Pistol, and finally got into competition himself in 2004. He started with IDPA, the International Defensive Pistol Association, and quickly became one of the first of the few to earn the title of Five-Gun Master.
"The Blue Flame" is a customized version of the XD-M 4.5″ 9mm that Strayer has put roughly 40,000 rounds through.
John got his first Springfield XD in 2008, when he opened the gun shop. He had shot my XD Tactical .45 ACP that I was testing at the time. John said later, "I fell in love with the XD's grip size and shape, and thought 'Man, if the .45 fits me that well, the 9mm should be off the chain. I ordered the 4″ XD 9, and later turned it into a competition gun for IDPA Enhanced Service Pistol. It really shoots nice.'"
That led him to his next personal acquisition from Springfield Armory, the XD-M. He won so many matches with that one that the gun earned a nickname — "The Blue Flame."
Strayer is a huge fan of the XD family, and has proven it can crush the competition.
I shot a lot of matches with John then, and in the southeast he became one of the men to beat. At matches you'd hear one competitor say, "We're doomed. Strayer's here," and another reply "It's worse than that; he's shooting the Blue Flame."
The Blue Flame
John remembers, "The Blue Flame is an XD-M 9mm with 4.5″ barrel that went to Springfield Armory Custom for a competition magazine well and trigger tune-up. It has a Dawson adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front. It was the first custom semi-auto I'd ever had done. It was right around when the XD-M first came out. This pistol's "blue flame" motif was done at same time as the rest of the work, on a whim. Gail Pepin, the producer/editor of the ProArms Podcast, designed it and used it for the avatar on the website. I had good luck with that gun, and won a lot of matches with it."
Springfield Armory Custom tricked out the XD-M for Strayer several years ago with a competition magwell and a trigger tune-up.
Strayer adds, "The Blue Flame has roughly 40,000 rounds through it. It was my sole competition gun at the time, for about four years, through 2012, and I shot about 10,000 rounds a year. I had no malfunctions with it except with too-light experimental handloads. When I went to a straight thumbs hold I sometimes overrode the slide stop, so I just trimmed the slide stop myself with a grinder."
For everyday carry, John created a hybrid XD-M. He explains, "I wanted a longer slide with a smaller grip for easier concealment. At work, I carried in a belly band under my uniform shirt for years. With a short barrel, the muzzle hit a bad spot on my sciatic nerve. So, I bought a 3.8″ Compact and just took the barrel/slide assembly off a 4.5″ and put it on the compact frame. That gave me a 13+1 capacity 9mm with a barrel that took full advantage of the velocity of the Winchester Ranger-T 127 grain +P+ I prefer, with a longer sight radius and more comfort, along with concealment under a tucked-in shirt."
Strayer's personal hybrid XD-M he created by combining a service-length barrel/slide assembly with a compact frame.
Back on the competition side of John's gun needs, he added a 9mm XD-M 5.25″ to his battery to replace The Blue Flame because, after shooting more USPSA run-and-gun matches, he preferred the longer sight radius. Arredondo base pads extended cartridge capacity to 22 rounds.
Strayer added Dawson adjustable sights to his hybrid XD-M.
In addition to the XD series, the 1911 is among John's favorite guns. He uses a .45 caliber Springfield TGO-II he purchased many years ago in the Custom Defense Pistol class and in USPSA Major for four Single Stack Matches in Illinois. He comments, "That gun's probably got 50,000 rounds through it, with nothing but regular maintenance. It has an action job from Springfield Armory, TGO mag well, and southpaw mag release by Mitchell Custom."
Strayer also uses this Springfield Armory TGO II pistol, and he's put close to 50,000 rounds through it.
When he got into USPSA, John wanted commonality and went all 1911 for a while. He used a Springfield Armory 9mm in its less expensive Range Officer format for IDPA's Enhanced Service Pistol division. He added a right side mag release from Mitchell, Custom Shop trigger, and a TGO mag well. "I own several more expensive 'boutique' 1911s in .45 and 9mm," he explains, "but I just shoot better with these particular Springfields."
Strayer prefers the XD-M 5.25's longer sight radius in USPSA competition.
Forging Ahead
That said, though, since the Single Stack Nationals have passed into history, John has gone back to the XD series as his exclusive platform. He has shot a handful of Concealed Carry Pistol division matches with his XD 9 Subcompact, including an overall win at the famous Leesburg, Florida BUG (BackUp Gun) event. He has spent a good bit of time with that same 9mm Subcompact as an everyday carry gun. His petite wife Terri also carries an XD Subcompact daily, hers being chambered for .40 SW. When Terri, a former state champion woman in IDPA, finds time to shoot a match these days it's either with her 4″ XD or her 9mm 1911-A1 Range Officer.
Strayer wins CDP division in an IDPA match with his TGO-II .45.
By the time you read this, Strayer says, "I'll probably have switched to a Hellcat. I love the sights, and I'll be able to carry it in a pocket holster. And I just like the feel of the gun!"

USDA Invests Over $692,000 to Improve Equitable Access to Housing in Indiana
Jessica Mancel
jessica.mancel@usda.gov
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Nov. 18, 2021 – U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Indiana Rural Development Acting State Director Curtis Johnson announced that the Department is investing $86 million to improve equitable access to jobs, business opportunities, education, housing and health care for people who live and work in rural areas. The investments are part of the Biden-Harris Administration's commitment to ensure that people living in rural communities have equitable access to the infrastructure and opportunities often taken for granted by people living in urban and suburban areas.
"By partnering with these Agencies, USDA is investing in rural Indiana to ensure that our most underserved communities receive the same assistance that their urban counterparts do," Johnson said. "USDA's investments continue to carry out the American Rescue Plan Act to achieve equity and help rural America build back better."
This announcement highlights 218 investments that USDA is making in six programs specifically designed to help people and businesses in rural areas. The funding will help more than 425,000 people in 46 states, Puerto Rico and the Western Pacific. It reflects the many ways USDA Rural Development helps rural residents, businesses and communities address economic development, infrastructure and social service needs. It will help low-income people make health and safety repairs to their homes. It will help build and improve water and wastewater infrastructure for people living in U.S. communities along the Mexico border. It will help rural business owners in the Mississippi Delta get access to capital and business development assistance. It also will help colleges that serve Tribal populations upgrade campus buildings and services.
In Indiana:
Habitat for Humanity of Indiana Inc (HFHI) will use a $184,500 Rural Community Development Initiative Grant to provide technical assistance to 19 rural recipients whose average population is 11,382. Through the Rural Housing Capacity Building Project, HFHI plans to provide additional training and financial assistance to 19 rural Habitat affiliates in the state. The expanded training opportunities will help build capacity at the local level so that more affordable homes can be constructed for low-income families and more homebuyers can be served in Indiana. All Habitat homebuyers have an income between 30%-60% of the area median income in their counties.
Southeastern Indiana Regional Planning Commission and Southern Indiana Development Commission will collectively be receiving $508,300 through the Housing Preservation Grant Program to help 91 low- and very-low-income people make health and safety repairs to their homes. These investments will support healthier and happier lives for all 91 homeowners.
Under the Biden-Harris Administration, Rural Development provides loans and grants to help expand economic opportunities, create jobs and improve the quality of life for millions of Americans in rural areas. This assistance supports infrastructure improvements; business development; housing; community facilities such as schools, public safety and health care; and high-speed internet access in rural, Tribal and high-poverty areas.
Information on programs available through USDA Rural Development is available by visiting www.rd.usda.gov/in or calling 317-290-3100. If you'd like to subscribe to USDA Rural Development updates, visit our GovDelivery subscriber page.
USDA is an equal opportunity provider, employer, and lender.

This is the return of one of Hock's popular knife modules in the 1990s, he did away with the original because it was deemed too violent! "This film comes from police experience and research. This module was the old 1990's "Alley Cat Street Fighter." Remember that was back in the day when Chuck Norris action movies ran supreme. Different time and different "names." It included a popular 'claw of the cat' panther speech, (hence the new module name). The old 90s module was very raw and violent with minimum legal issues discussed. As a result I thought it best to hide the course away. But, my friends insisted I bring it back as it was one of their favorites. Now revised as Claw of the Cat it has new information, evolved with newer methods, new ways for skill development and full of important, modern, legal issues. The subject covers a very succinct criminal situation, as in a mugging/robbery or 'bully,' assault or potential kidnapping, type of crime" - Hock.
"Anyone who knows me at all, knows I take my martial arts training seriously. Although I enjoy all the material I work, there is just something special about Hock's Knife/Counter-knife Combatives Program. The material is probably my favorite material to work. I had a great time at Gracie 601 tonight working with folks serious about training to THRIVE in chaos! The looks I get from the newbies as we're working up close and personal with (training!) blades is priceless!" - David "The Dawg" Kerwood, MS.

Q: Jenkins access files from other repo I have two separate repos in Jenkins, foo: containing code, and bar: containing unit tests relevant to foo's code.  They're in separate repos because bar is heavy and contains a lot of unit tests.
I want my workflow to look something like this:

*

*Update code in foo, add unit tests to bar

*Pull rebase in both repos

*Run unit test code in bar, while being in foo's directory (to reference environmental variables.)

How can I do this in Jenkins?  Is this even a good workflow?
The point of this is to run unit tests in bar while using code in foo.

Q: How to display time from JSON in HorizontalPicker Flutter?
I would like to create a scrollable horizontal picker exactly like the picture shown above to display the time stored in JSON. However, I faced the error of 'Invalid double 12:00PM'.
Or is it has any other solutions to create this scrollable horizontal timeline in Flutter?
Below is my code:
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new Scaffold(
        body: Container(
          margin: EdgeInsets.all(0.0),
          width: double.infinity,
          height: 120,
          child: HorizontalPicker(
              minValue: double.parse(data.schedule.delivery[0].time.toString()),
              maxValue:  double.parse(data.schedule.delivery[data.schedule.delivery.length].time.toString()),
              divisions: data.schedule.delivery.length,
              showCursor: false,

              }
          ),
        ),
        );
  }

Above is JSON data

Below is the error displayed:

In a previous blog, I mentioned that Security is process and not a product. Part of that process it to conduct a Security Code Review, however, today's Applications are becoming much more complicated, are distributed over numerous Servers and much larger in terms of lines of code. Thus, it is not always feasible to do a complete Security Code Review of tens of thousands lines of code.
In today's fast pace business environment, applications project timelines are being decreased; and more and more pressure is on getting the application into production in a timely manner, without comprising Security. This is a tall order, but threat modeling and Security Code Review actually go hand-in-hand and fit nicely into the Security process. These two techniques can be incrementally added to your software development lifecycle and when used properly it provides a nice comprise between Security and Business pressures.
With a completed threat model and priorities set on where to conduct the Security Code Review the next question is "how to I conduct a solid Security Review"? Recently on MSDN a "How to" module was release describing both the benefits and the process of conducting a Security Code Review on your .Net Framework 2.0 Applications.
In summary, these two functions fit hand-in-hand as part of any security process in the software development lifecycle. Both of these articles provide a lot of value to any security process but they truly need to be done in conjunction with one another for maximum benefits.

CHILDREN and young people who are in care have been rewarded for their progress and achievements at the city council's annual Celebrating Success awards ceremony.
The ceremony, which was held recently (23 Jan) at De Montfort Hall, also rewarded care leavers for their achievements, and focused on recognising the barriers some children and young people have overcome to make progress in their lives.
More than 100 young people attended the event, with awards in categories including educational progress, extra-curricular achievements and personal successes. Every child who attended won an award.
Deputy city mayor Cllr Sarah Russell, who leads on children, young people and schools, said: "This is always a wonderful event. Like all parents, we want to celebrate the successes of the children and young people in our care.
"For many of these young people, life will already have been tough and they'll have had to overcome considerable barriers to get where they are, which makes their achievements all the more remarkable and worthy of celebration.
"I congratulate each and every one of them."
Awards were handed out by Cllr Russell, the Lord Mayor Cllr Rashmikant Joshi, and by members of the Leicester Riders and Leicestershire County Cricket Club.
Many of the children who attended also form part of the Children In Care Council, which helps to plan the annual Celebrating Success event.
The Children in Care Council also meets regularly with council leaders to discuss how services can be improved for young people in care.

Auckland Airport (IATA: AKL, ICAO: NZAA) is the largest and busiest airport in New Zealand, with over 21 million passengers in the year ended March 2019.[4] The airport is located near Mangere, a residential suburb, and Airport Oaks, a service hub suburb 21 kilometres (13 mi) south of the Auckland city centre. It is both a domestic and international hub for Air New Zealand, and as the New Zealand hub of Virgin Australia and Jetstar Airways.
The airport is one of New Zealand's most important infrastructure assets, providing thousands of jobs for the region. It handled 71 per cent of New Zealand's international air passenger arrivals and departures in 2000.[5] It is one of only two airports in New Zealand (the other being Christchurch) capable of handling Boeing 747 and Airbus A380 aircraft.
It has a capacity of about 45 flight movements per hour,[6] using a single runway that is fully Cat IIIb capable (at a reduced rate of movements). In November 2007 work began on a new northern runway, to be built in several stages and to be used mainly by smaller aircraft, freeing up capacity on the main runway. The project was put on hold for at least 12 months in October 2009, however, and deferred for a further few years in August 2010 following consultation with airlines and a review of capacity management options. The timing of the recommencement of construction of the second runway will be demand driven relative to the capacity of the existing runway. The expected completion date for the second runway is now 2025.[7]
Mangere International Airport in 1965
The site of the airport was first used as an airfield by the Auckland Aero Club. In 1928, the club leased some land from a dairy farmer to accommodate the club's three De Havilland Gypsy Moths. The club president noted at the time that the site "has many advantages of vital importance for an aerodrome and training ground. It has good approaches, is well drained and is free from power lines, buildings and fogs." Prior to rebuilding, this was known as Mangere Aerodrome.
In 1960 work started to transform the site into Auckland's main airport, taking over from Whenuapai in the north-west of the city. Much of the runway is on land reclaimed from the Manukau Harbour.[8] The first flight to leave was an Air New Zealand DC-8 in November 1965, bound for Sydney. The airport was officially opened the following year, with a 'grand air pageant' on Auckland Anniversary weekend, 29 to 31 January 1966.
Upon the airport's opening, the runway was originally 2,590m long, with an extension to its current length carried out in 1973.[9][8][10]
A new international terminal, named after Jean Batten, was built in 1977.[11] Prior to this, all flights used what is now the domestic terminal.[12] In 2005, the international terminal was altered, separating arriving and departing passengers.
Previously taxiway 'Alpha' (parallel to the main runway) had been modified and designated as Runway 23R/05L so that rehabilitation work could be completed on the main runway 23L/05R. After the work was completed, the temporary runway reverted to taxiway alpha, although the main runway retained its L/R designations. In 2007, construction began on a second runway to the north of the current one. Initially the new runway would have been 1,200-metre (3,900 ft) long and catered for regional flights operated by Air New Zealand using turboprop aircraft. This would have cost $32 million and would have improved the efficiency of the airport by removing smaller planes (which require longer separation distances from the air turbulence wakes of preceding jet airliners) from the main runway. At a later stage, the runway would have been lengthened to 1,950 metres (6,400 ft) to allow it be used by small jets (such as the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320) on domestic and trans-Tasman flights.[6] In August 2009, however, the project was put on hold due to a downturn in air travel, and later in 2010 the project was suspended.[13]
Construction for Stage One started in November 2007. Stage Two will likely see the runway lengthened to 1,650 metres (5,410 ft), which will enable domestic jet flights to use it. Stage Three (final stage) will lengthen the runway to 2,150 metres (7,050 ft), allowing medium-sized international jet flights to land there, from destinations such as the Pacific Islands or Australia. Eventually a new domestic terminal will also be built to the north to better utilise the new runway. The new runway will thus free up the longer southern runway to handle more heavy jet operations.[14] The 10-year project would cost NZ$120 million, not including substantial extensions planned for the airport arrivals/departure buildings and associated structures.[6]
In 2009, an extension to the international terminal was constructed, creating Pier B. Pier B covers 5,500 square metres (59,000 sq ft) and has been designed to allow for the addition of new gates when required.[15] It currently has 2 gates, both capable of handling Airbus A380 aircraft.[16] In May 2009, Emirates became the first airline to fly the A380 to Auckland, using the aircraft on its daily Dubai-Sydney-Auckland route. On 2 October 2012 Emirates began operating the Dubai-Melbourne-Auckland with an A380, having previously operated the route with a B777-300ER.[17] From 2 October 2013, the A380 took over from a B777-300ER on the Dubai-Brisbane-Auckland route[18] This will mean that Emirates now serves Auckland solely with A380s, and Auckland Airport becomes the only airport in the world, other than Dubai, to have three scheduled Emirates A380s on the ground at the same time.[19] In 2014, Singapore Airlines was the second airline to operate A380s at the airport.
In 2013, the domestic terminal undertook a series of upgrades costing a total of $30 million. Stage one ran from January 2013 to March 2013, and involved changes to the drop off points and roads outside the terminal.[20] In the second half of 2013, the baggage claim belts were lengthened, parts of the apron was changed, and new corridors were connected to the jetbridges. The two different sides to the terminals now share a centralised security screening area following the upgrade and an extra storey was added to the western wing to provide an airside connection between the Air New Zealand side of the terminal and the Jetstar side of the terminal. The work took 12 months to complete.[12]
In early 2014, the airport released their 30-year vision for the future, which envisaged the airport to combine both the international and domestic operations into one combined building based around the existing international terminal. This will see new domestic piers built to the south of the existing international precinct within the next 5 years. The plan also allows for the extension of the current international piers and also the creation of new piers for international operations. A new 2,150 metres long northern runway will be able to cater for aircraft up to the size of the 777 and 787 jets. New public transport links including a new railway station and line may be built in the future. The plan has been split into four implementation phases. Phase 1 will see all operations combined into one terminal precinct as well as improved road network surrounding the terminal within the next 5 years. Phase 2 sees the new northern runway constructed as well as the extension of the terminal forecourt by 2025. Phase 3 involves the extension of both international and domestic piers by 2044. Phase 4 sees the northern runway extended to a length of around 3,000 metres (9,800 ft).[21]
From the 2015 Annual Report, work will commence on extending Pier B in the current financial year. This project will allow for 3 more gates to be built. This will double, from three to six, the number of A380 aircraft Auckland Airport can accommodate at any one time. Also, it will increase the number of B787-9 aircraft that can be accommodated from six to nine. This development has been requested by airlines for greater capacity, in the future 4 more gates will be built on the northern side of Pier B.[22]
International Terminal check-in hall underneath the departures level.
The Air New Zealand check in hall at Auckland Airport in June 2012
Auckland Airport consists of two terminals; the International Terminal and the Domestic Terminal. The two terminals are located approximately 500m apart and are connected by a free shuttle bus service and a signposted walkway. The airport has 65 gates in total, 23 with Jetbridges and 42 remote stands for aircraft parking.
Check-in counters are at the eastern end of the international terminal building on the ground level.
Gates 1-10 are located in Pier A; Gates 1-9 are single-airbridge gates and Gate 10 is a twin-airbridge gate suitable for an A380 aircraft, but not two narrow body aircraft.
Gates 15 to 18 are located in Pier B, and are twin airbridges gates, each capable of handling an A380 aircraft with simultaneous double-deck boarding, or two narrow body aircraft each in the A320 or B737 class.
Gates 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 16A and 16B are bus gates used when passengers need to be transported to aircraft parked at remote stands.
Gates 4A and 4B are located on the eastern side of Pier A, and 4C and 4D are located on the western side of Pier A. They are accessed from the lounge for gates 2 & 4.
Gate 4E is used for groups requiring special handling such as sporting teams.
Stands 19-20 are remote stands located west of Pier B. In December 2015, the airport opened a new bus lounge in Pier B (gates 16A and 16B) for bussing to stands on the western apron, particularly stands 19 and 74-81.
Stands 70-73 and 82-84 are remote stands located to the east of Pier A. If boarding of aircraft is necessary at these stands, passengers are bussed from gate 4A or 4B. Stands 70-73 are also used by Jetstar regional flights and passengers are bussed from the Jetstar regional lounge (gate 62 and 63).
Stands 74-81 are remote stands located to the west of Pier A. If boarding of aircraft is necessary at these stands, passengers are bussed from gate 4C or 4D, or 16A or 16B.
Passenger separation
In 1993, the CAA instituted the requirement that all international airports in New Zealand must keep airside departing and arriving passengers separate. Auckland Airport was granted an exemption to this rule, allowing the airside mingling of arriving and departing passengers to continue, on the basis that all international flights operating into Auckland originated from airports with adequate security screening. Following the September 11 attacks and further regulation by the ICAO, the CAA required the airport to physically separate arriving and departing passengers by 2006.[23] In the interim period until passenger separation was achieved, flights to the US as well as all Qantas, and for a short time Cathay Pacific, flights were restricted to departing from gates where a secondary X-ray and metal detector inspection was operating. To physically separate arriving and departing passengers, Auckland Airport decided to build a new departure level on top of the existing one, with the existing floor becoming the arrivals level. The existing departure lounges were kept by installing glass walls to separate the waiting areas from the newly designed arrivals corridor, and escalators were installed to transport passengers from the new departures level down to each departure lounge. The modifications to the terminal were completed in December 2005,[24] and also involved the expansion of retail space within the pier by 600 square metres and an increase in the number of bus gates to four.[25]
Domestic terminal
The two previously separate domestic terminal buildings have now been connected by a common retail area. The Jetstar check-in area is located in the western end of the terminal, in the building previously used by Ansett New Zealand, Qantas, and Pacific Blue. The Air New Zealand check-in area is located in the centre of the terminal. There are nine gates that have jetbridges in the domestic terminal.
Jetstar domestic A320 services operate from gates 20-23 (jetbridge gates). Gate 24 (tarmac gate) is used by both Jetstar and Air New Zealand's A320 aircraft. Gates 60-63 are used for Jetstar regional flights, with 62 and 63 being bus gates in a separate building at the Jetstar end of the terminal. Gates 20 and 21 are turned into 60 and 61 during peak regional times. Air New Zealand mainline services operate from gates 24-33. Gates 28 through to 33 all have jetbridges, while gates 25, 26 and 27 don't exist. Air New Zealand Link services operate from the regional section of the domestic terminal. This is located at the eastern end of the terminal and consists of gates 34-50 (excluding gate numbers 37, 38 and 44, which do not exist). These gates are linked to the terminal by covered walkways, and passengers walk across the apron to the aircraft.
Gates 51-59 are used by 3rd level operators Air Chathams, Alliance Airlines, Barrier Air and Fly My Sky. Further to the east, gates 101-106 are used for Business Jets and long term parking.

Auckland Council (22.15%)[53]
Auckland International Airport Limited (AIAL) was formed in 1988, when the New Zealand Government corporatised the airport. It had previously been run by the Auckland Regional Authority, covering the five councils in the Auckland region.[54]
The Government was AIAL's majority shareholder, the rest being held by the local councils. In 1998 the Government sold its shareholding, and AIAL became the fifth airport company in the world to be publicly listed. At that time the major shareholders were Auckland City Council (25.8 per cent), Manukau City Council (9.6 per cent) and North Shore City Council (7.1 per cent). North Shore City Council sold its shares in 1999 and Auckland City Council sold its share down to 12.8 per cent in 2002. After amalgamation into the Auckland Council, the local authority now owns a 22.4 per cent stake worth $1.13 billion as of May 2014.[55]
AIAL appears on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX: AIA) and Australian Stock Exchange (ASX: AIA). International shareholders hold around 40 per cent of the shares, domestic approximately 60 per cent. The company has a Standard & Poor's credit rating of A+/Stable/A-1.[56]
As at 31 December 2015, Auckland Airport was the biggest listed company on the NZX, with a market capitalisation of $6.85 Billion NZD.[57]
AIAL enjoys diverse revenue streams, and operates a 'dual-till' approach, whereby its finances are split into aeronautical and non-aeronautical balance sheets. Aeronautical income is derived from airfield charges, terminal services charge and the airport development charge (or departure fee). Non-aeronautical revenue comes from its significant property portfolio, car park, and retail income. Due to the airport having little-to-no competition, the aeronautical side of the business is subject to information disclosure requirements as set by the Commerce Commission.[58] Income from the non-aeronautical side of the business accounts for just over half of its revenue.[] The airport has been criticised by airlines, led by Air New Zealand, for its purportedly high landing charges. Research conducted in September 2010 by aviation consultants Jacobs, however, indicates that Auckland Airport international charges are slightly below the average of the 20 largest international airports flown by Air New Zealand.
The diversity in revenue was of benefit during the downturn in international aviation following the events of 11 September 2001, and subsequently the 2002 Bali bombings, SARS outbreak and the Iraq War. The airport was able to rely on steady income from the non-aeronautical side of the business, which softened the blow of international events.
In July 2009 Auckland Airport elected to delay a scheduled increase in its landing charges from 1 July 2009 to assist its airline customers during the recession. The scheduled increase was put in place on 1 March 2010. The company has in the past reportedly been singled out by airline lobby group IATA for its consistent excessive level of profits. Airlines such as Air New Zealand complain of excessive landing charges.[59] On 5 June 2007, the airport's 60 per cent profit margin was criticised by IATA director general and CEO Giovanni Bisignani. He said the airport had a "happy monopoly" and that IATA would ask the New Zealand government to investigate.[60]
Until July 2008, AIAL charged all departing international passengers (12 years old or older) a $25 departure fee. This has been replaced with a passenger services charge levied on the airlines for each arriving and departing international passenger. This charge has commenced at $13 and was planned to rise by 50 cents a year for two years to $14.[61] In 2012, Auckland Airport envisaged to cut the international passenger fee and hike the domestic travellers charges in FY-2013.[62]
Partnership with Queenstown Airport
On 8 July 2010, AIAL announced it had entered into an agreement to take a 24.99 per cent shareholding in Queenstown Airport Corporation Limited, the operator of Queenstown Airport, and form a strategic alliance between the two airports. The shareholding will cost NZ$27.7 million, through the issue of new shares. The alliance is expected to generate an extra 176,000 passengers through Queenstown Airport. AIAL has an option to increase its shareholding in Queenstown Airport to 30-35 per cent at any time up to 30 June 2011, subject to the approval of the Queenstown Lakes District Council. The new share capital from would allow Queenstown Airport to fund growth of the airport's operating capacity and to pay regular dividends back to the community via the Queenstown Lakes District Council shareholding.[63][64]
Auckland Airport owned radio frequencies over a 15-year period. It purchased the Radio Hauraki frequency 1476 AM in 1990, and began operating adult contemporary and flight information radio station Info Music from the domestic terminal.[65] It purchased 1XD Counties Manukau L Double L and its 1404 AM, 1548 AM and 702 AM frequencies in 1992, and changed the station name to Info Music Counties 1476 and then Airport Radio AKL1476.[66] The 1476 frequency was leased to Independent Broadcasting Company in 1993, which used it at various times for Auckland 1476, The Breeze on 91, Lifestyle Radio, and Today 99.8FM.[65] It was leased to talkback station The Point 1XD in 1994, and made available to Auckland Radio Trust to rebroadcast the BBC World Service in 1998.[67] It was sold in 2005.[68]
Two state highways connect to the airport; State Highway 20A and State Highway 20B. State Highway 20A leaves the airport to the north along George Bolt Memorial Drive and travels through Mangere as an expressway before joining State Highway 20. State Highway 20B leaves the airport to the east and crosses Pukaki Creek before travelling along Puhinui Road to an interchange with State Highway 20 in Wiri.
SkyBus express buses operate between both terminals at the airport and central Auckland and North Harbour. The terminus for central Auckland services is the Britomart Transport Centre via Mount Eden Station or Dominion Road and Queen Street. The Westfield Albany mall is the terminus for North Harbour services via the Northern Busway with stops at the Akoranga and Smales Farm stations.[69]
380 Airporter is a regular bus service that operates between Onehunga, both terminals and Manukau City via Papatoetoe Station.[70]
Rail proposals
A heavy rail connection from the airport to Auckland CBD was initially conceived as an extension of the Onehunga Branch line via Mangere Bridge and the suburb of Mangere. Another proposal was the construction of a heavy rail line to the east of the airport to connect with the North Island Main Trunk line near Puhinui Station, or the creation of a loop to connect the airport to both the Onehunga Line and the North Island Main Trunk Line.
The preferred option since 2016[71] is an entirely new light rail line running from the airport to central Auckland via a direct alignment through Mangere, Onehunga and Mount Roskill. At Mount Roskill, it would connect to the planned Dominion Road light rail line[72] which would continue on to Queen Street in Central Auckland before reaching a final terminus in the Wynyard Quarter waterfront development area.
There are several cycle routes connecting the airport to the surrounding suburbs, consisting of both off-road tracks and on-road cycle lanes.
Accidents and incidents that occurred at or near Auckland Airport include:
4 July 1966 - an Air New Zealand Douglas DC-8 on a training flight crashed on the runway shortly after taking off, killing 2 of the 5 crew (no passengers were on board).
17 February 1979 - Air New Zealand Flight 4374 crashed into Manukau Harbour while on final approach. 1 crew and 1 company staff member were killed.
31 July 1989 - an Air Freight NZ Convair 340/580 crashed shortly after taking off at night. All 3 crew members were killed.

Q: C windows socket forever blocked on first execution I am writing a C software to interface with a motorcontroller over UDP.
I'm using:

*

*Win 7 Pro 64-Bit

*eclipse luna

*minGW

At the moment I have a problem, that seems to be socket/wsa related:
the execution of my program gets stuck on the recvfrom() forever (so obviously the controller doesn't respond as expected).
With the attached software this only happens on the first execution (or after not executing for ca. 3 mins) other programs had this problem 3-4 times in a row.
A look into wireshark revealed, that the first (or after 3min pause) leads to the transmission of an "ARP" package instead of my UDP message.
Why is that (it seems to be searching for the destination)? How can I avoid "crashing" my software due to this?
Did I forget to initialise anything?
My code looks like this:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <winsock2.h>

#define Y_AXIS_IP "XXX.XXX.XXX.XX"
#define Y_AXIS_PORT 880X

int startWinsock(void);

int main() {
//Start the winsocket (needed to create sockets)
long ws = startWinsock();
if (ws) {
    printf("ERROR: Failed to init Winsock API! Code: %ld\n", ws);
    getch();
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
//Create an UDP Socket
SOCKET UDPsocket = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
if (UDPsocket == INVALID_SOCKET) {
    printf("ERROR: Socket could not be created! Code: %d\n",
            WSAGetLastError());
    getch();
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
//Create a struct to use with the socket (this gives information about type (AF_INET = Internet Protocol) which port and which IP to use)
SOCKADDR_IN addrY;
memset(&addrY, 0, sizeof(addrY));
addrY.sin_family = AF_INET; //Assert Type
addrY.sin_port = htons(Y_AXIS_PORT);    //Assert Port
addrY.sin_addr.S_un.S_addr = inet_addr(Y_AXIS_IP);  //assert IP Address

char message[] = "0000MTX     00000000OR:1:000F\r";

int buffersize = 100;
char *recvbuf = malloc(buffersize); //None of the replys can get larger than 100 chars

if (recvbuf == NULL) {
    printf("Out of memory!\n");
    getch();
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

//clear the receive buffer and prepare the address size
memset(recvbuf, '\0', buffersize);
int addrsize = sizeof(addrY);

//Send the message to the device
if (sendto(UDPsocket, message, strlen(message), 0,
        (struct sockaddr *) &addrY, sizeof(addrY)) == SOCKET_ERROR) {
    printf("sendto() failed with error code : %d", WSAGetLastError());
    getch();
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

//Receive from device (blocks program until recv event)
if (recvfrom(UDPsocket, recvbuf, buffersize, 0, (struct sockaddr *) &addrY,
        &addrsize) == SOCKET_ERROR) {
    //If not timed out Display the Error
    printf("recvfrom() failed with error code : %d", WSAGetLastError());
    getch();
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}

printf("%s\n", recvbuf);
getch();

free(recvbuf);

return 0;
}

int startWinsock(void) {
WSADATA wsa;
return WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(2, 2), &wsa);
}

I would be really happy, if you had any ideas or suggestions. Thanks alot in advance!

A: *

*Before a computer can send a packet to another host, it has to resolve its MAC address. This is done via an ARP request. It is handled by the operating system transparently.

*recvfrom will block. It is not a bug. There are basically three ways of avoiding recvfrom from blocking forever when there is no incomming data:

*

*make the socket asynchronous, i.e. nonblocking

*set a timeout (see Set timeout for winsock recvfrom)

*use select (Setting winsock select timeout accurately)

A: So finally I found a way to deal with this issue:
1. catch the timeout that occurs at recvfrom
2. save the sockets address in a temporary socket
3. close the original socket
4. end the WSA (call WSACleanup())
5. start the WSA (call WSAStartup())
6. create a new socket at the address of the former socket
7. transmit the message again

seems to work fine (also see code below)
If you see anything wrong or dangerous with my code, please feel free to comment and help my to improve my skills.
Thank you for your help and ideas,
Sebastian

Q: Tracking Dojo UI Events Is it possible to have a 'register a third party' function or modify the Dojo code base to  call my function each time Dojo processes a UI event?  In other words, I would like my own function to be called each time Dojo processes an event; and have the event object passed to my function so I can track all the user activity on the page.
Thanks
Jerry

A: If you by 'UI event' mean DOM event then you can listen to window document object - dojo.doc  - as events bubble (as long as bubbling is not stopped, e.g. by dojo.stopEvent(event)):
dojo.connect(dojo.doc, "onclick", function(event) {
    console.log(event);
});

Touch it at jsFiddle.
You may also consider to look at dojox.form.Manager Tutorial to observe form elements.

White House Intervenes In General Motors Strike
"The White House is seeking to end the United Auto Workers strike against General Motors with an agreement that would reopen an assembly plant in Lordstown, Ohio that GM shut down in March," Politico reports.
"The effort would effectively put the White House on the side of the UAW and could boost the president's reelection chances next year in Michigan and Ohio. Some 48,000 GM workers went out on strike Monday demanding higher wages, more generous health care benefits and more job security than management has been willing to offer in a new contract."
