The Board of Directors of the WORLD CONFEDERATION OF BUSINESSES has chosen Amsterdam as the host city for the next edition of THE BIZZ Awards Europe 2019.
Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, a country in Northwestern Europe with approximately 810.000 inhabitants. Today, it is the largest city in the country and a great financial and cultural center at an international level.
The historical center of the city was mostly built during the XVII century and now it is one of the largest historical centers in Europe. History shows that a series of semicircular canals were dug around the old town. Later, new streets were built along the houses and stores that were designed in typical Dutch fashion. These designs are one of the main attractions in Amsterdam and in the country.
In Amsterdam, there are many famous international museums like the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk Museum (museum of modern art), and the Museum Het Rembrandthuis or 'the Rembrandt House Museum'. This was Rembrandt's workshop with an interesting collection of his personal etchings and paintings. The Van Gogh Museum is another attraction with the largest collection in the world of Van Gogh paintings; Madame Tussauds, the wax museum is another attraction, and the Film Museum also known as the Filmmuseum.
Another popular tourist destination is Anne Frank's house, a writer's house and biographical museum, and the Amstelkring Museum that hides a secret Catholic church in the attic dating back to the XVII century.
For WORLDCOB, it is a great pleasure to hold THE BIZZ ceremony in this beautiful city nestled in the famous European continent. It's a place full of great culture and financial importance for all businesses worldwide.


This post is refererring to Arne Roock's Blog Post on the publishing of David Anderson's already classic 'Kanban' wich is now also released in german. The book was translated into German by Arne and Henning Wolf. The publishing was celebrated at the OOP 2011 in Munich with some events and talks on the topic and David made no secret out of the German edition being updated in some chapters and containing an additional chapter by me.
I can only imagine how hard a task this was, as to me the original is already a nice, soft read focusing on the purpose and motivation of Kanban and reflecting this in a very soft and understanding way. I followed the translation from the beginning and have to take my hat off on how well this book was transferred into German. If you get hold of the book, just after a few pages you will realize how good the translation is - especially compared to other books in our industry.
I may expand on that in a future blog post or article. I actually gave myself the task to try to find out which queue has what impact on the whole system.
So there you have it - grab a copy, read the book, read my chapter, give it some reviews on amazon and give me or the other guys involved some feedback via Email or twitter. We would be happy!
Edit: A great in depth description of a Kanban introduction given by Henning and Arne to celebrate the publish of their translation is given here by Markus Gärtner.

What: The annual meeting of the Pediatric Academic Societies (PAS), which consists of The American Pediatric Society, the Society for Pediatric Research, the Academic Pediatric Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. The PAS 2018 Meeting will bring together more than 8,000 pediatricians, research scientists, health care providers and policymakers from around the world.
Pediatricians from Johns Hopkins Children's Center will be at PAS 2018 to present on a wide variety of research.
When: May 5-8, 2018
Where: Metro Toronto Convention Centre, North & South Buildings, Toronto, Canada.
Results of the Reducing Variation in the Infant Sepsis Evaluation (REVISE) National QI Collaborative
Part of 4640 Hospital Medicine III
Where: Convention Center 104 AB
When: Tuesday, May 8, 12:15-12:30 p.m.
Across the country, there is wide variability in how infants with fever symptoms are managed when they present at the hospital. In an attempt to standardize care, the American Academy of Pediatrics sponsored a national quality improvement initiative entitled Reducing Excessive Variation in the Infant Sepsis Evaluation (REVISE), which was launched in September 2016 and included more than 19,000 infants across 133 hospital systems. Results of REVISE, which consisted of educational webinars, a change package of order sets, algorithms, a mobile app, evidence-based reviews, a listserv and run charts with peer benchmarking for clinicians, improved care for infants with fever symptoms by increasing appropriate hospitalization and appropriate length of stay. Eric Biondi, M.D., M.S., associate professor of pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, was a leader of the REVISE initiative and will present the results with co-authors.
Gender Differences in Effects of School-Based Mindfulness in Urban Minority Youth
Presented as part of 4630 General Pediatrics: Primary Care II
Where: Convention Center 201 E-F
When: Tuesday, May 8, 1:30-1:45 p.m.
Erica Sibinga, M.D., M.H.S., associate professor of pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, along with co-authors, will present the results of a 12-week school-based mindfulness program and its effect by gender. The results show that the program was not only effective at improving psychological symptoms, coping and post-stress symptoms, but male students seemed to experience additional benefit, with lower hostility, higher levels of mindfulness and a trend toward lower stress.
Promoting Bike Helmet Safety for Urban Children Through a Culturally Tailored Educational Video Intervention
Presented as part of 3655 Injury Prevention
Where: Convention Center 105
When: Monday, May 7, 4:30-4:45 p.m.
Use of bicycle helmets substantially reduces risk of severe traumatic brain injury, but compliance with this safety practice is particularly low in minority and lower income children. Leticia Ryan, M.D., M.P.H., assistant professor of pediatrics, Barry Solomon, M.D., M.P.H., associate professor of pediatrics, and Susan Ziegfeld, C.R.N.P., manager of the pediatric trauma and burn program, all of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and co-authors created an education video specifically for Baltimore City youth to demonstrate proper helmet fitting and promote helmet youth in children. The pilot results show a significant increase in helmet use after the video was shown and free helmets were distributed with fit instructions and a parent guidance document.
Effectiveness of Obesity Prevention and Control Policies and Programs for Children: A Systematic Review of Natural Experiments
Presented as part of 1444 Obesity and Disordered Eating: Prevention and Environmental Influences
Where: Convention Center Exhibit Hall DE
When: Saturday, May 5, 1:15 p.m.-2:30 p.m.
To evaluate the effectiveness of policies and programs from natural experiments for pediatric obesity prevention and control, Carolyn Bramante, M.D., M.P.H., general pediatrics fellow, and Rachel Thornton, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor of pediatrics, both of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and co-authors examined 33 studies from 2000 to 2017 for population-based programs and policies evaluated in a natural experiment. The researchers found that most of these natural experiments occurred in schools and focused primarily on food/beverage. School-based interventions that focused on both food/beverage and physical activity environments were most effective in reducing body mass index. These findings support pediatric obesity prevention policies that create multicomponent, population-level interventions that create healthier environments for children.
Admitted Pediatric Trauma Patients Arriving by Private Vehicle Have Lower Trauma Activation Rates Than Those Arriving by Emergency Medical Services
Presented as part of 1429 Emergency Medicine: Trauma
To determine whether private vehicle transportation to a pediatric trauma center had an effect on trauma activation status, Dylan Stewart, M.D., and Leticia Ryan, M.D., M.P.H., assistant professors of pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, conducted a retrospective study that examined data for patients younger than 15 years from trauma registries at two level I pediatric trauma centers from 2014 to 2016. Their study found that almost half of admitted pediatric trauma patients arrived by privately owned vehicle, a factor significantly associated with lack of trauma activation (2 percent versus 86 percent of children arriving by emergency medical services). These findings suggest both a need for developing a higher threshold for trauma activation for patients arriving by private vehicle and perhaps the potential overuse of trauma activation for patients arriving by emergency medical services.

R&B Singer Chris Brown: 4 Years After Rihanna Assault, LA DA Says He's Never Done His Community Service
by Roger Friedman - February 5, 2013 1:33 pm
Has Chris Brown created an elaborate hoax to convince the Los Angeles District Attorney he's done his community service?
The Los Angeles District Attorney says that Brown, Rihanna's sometime and abusive boyfriend, may have faked the whole thing. District Attorney Jackie Lacey says Brown failed "to provide credible, competent or verifiable evidence" that he completed his court-ordered community labor dating back to his 2009 assault on Rihanna. Keep refreshing…
Of course, a reading of the 19 page motion indicates that Brown has done only half of the time in community service that was mandated. The motion is actually sort of amusing. It's a math problem. Brown's lawyer keeps sending the judge updates, and keeps changing the amount of time done. The court says Brown claims 701 hours of community service. He's required to do 1440 hours.
The problem is that Brown wants to do his service in Richmond, Virginia. The court wants it in Los Angeles. That's because, according to the motion, Brown has never shown up to do the reported service in Virginia. There are huge discrepancies about what has actually taken place. The LA DA is skeptical about any proper service having been completed.
The 19 page report is a pretty comprehensive account of a defendant who's allegedly lied and done nothing, and on top of that got caught smoking while he was doing whatever service he did.
Brown assaulted girlfriend Rihanna almost exactly four years ago on the night before the Grammy Awards. Since then, he's been involved in various scrapes and scandals. And Rihanna has continued to date him.
Here's the press release:
LOS ANGELES – District Attorney Jackie Lacey said today that
entertainer Chris Brown failed to provide "credible, competent or verifiable
evidence" that he completed his court-ordered community labor. She asked the
court to order Brown to fulfill his obligation in Los Angeles County.
On August 25, 2009, Brown was ordered to complete 180 days of
community labor and was allowed by the court to do so in his home state of
Virginia as part of a five-year probationary sentence for assault.
In a motion filed by Deputy District Attorney Mary Murray, the
court was asked to decline to accept Brown's community labor in Virginia due to
what appears to be "significant discrepancies indicating at best sloppy
documentation and at worst fraudulent reporting."

This has to be one of the simplest meals to create and as I'm gearing up for my own personal 'no food waste' zero waste week I thought I'd share.
It's quick, convenient and uses up scraps of things that might otherwise be wasted.
We eat this meal once every 10 days or so, so I thought I'd share it with you.
We call is 'pizza' but you probably call it cheese on toast.
Et voila – instant pizza resulting in zero food waste!
What is the simplest recipe you make for using up food scraps?
We like that kind of pizza too! Pasta is always very forgiving too, with odds and ends, and even with just ketchup and grated cheese it's very acceptable to hungry children!
Soups, stir fries and risottos are my favourite recipes for using up leftovers. The combinations are endless and with the judicious use of herbs and spices they can be as tasty as they are nutritious.
Like Gai we do a lot of soups and stirfrys to use up food. Just yesterday I was making a stirfry out of extra produce we had. It is always tasty so I don't mind.
I think I'm going to make this for dinner tonight. We had a party on Sunday with a sandwich bar so I have lots of gourmet bread left over and all kinds of fancy things like pesto mayonnaise and my friend's lovely tomatoes to add to it. Thanks for the idea, Mrs. G!

Q: MySQL - Only add to GROUP_CONCAT if count of a subquery is greater than 1 Alright, I'm trying to grab faculty team leaders and list the project IDs with which they are associated. However, I only want to add the project ID if there are at least 2 students registered in the courses associated with that project ID.
Here is what I have:
#Distinct students enrolled in CI
SELECT DISTINCT c.*,

(

#Projects in ci_id order with students enrolled in the courses
SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT ci_projects.ci_id SEPARATOR ', ')

FROM `ci_projects` LEFT JOIN `ci_team_leaders` ON ci_projects.ci_id=ci_team_leaders.ci_id WHERE ci_team_leaders.username=c.username

) AS CIs

FROM `ci_projects` AS x

INNER JOIN `ci_team_leaders` AS b ON x.ci_id=b.ci_id
LEFT JOIN `ci_users` AS c ON b.username=c.username
LEFT JOIN `departments` AS d ON c.dept_id=d.dept_id
LEFT JOIN `colleges` AS e ON d.college_id=e.college_id

WHERE x.status = 2 GROUP BY c.username HAVING (SELECT COUNT(`reg_username`) FROM `all_course_reg` AS z INNER JOIN `ci_courses` AS y ON y.    course_crn=z.reg_crn WHERE y.ci_id =ci_id AND z.reg_term = '201308') > 1

The query runs, but the HAVING part does not change the outcome.
OKAY I THINK I GOT IT....
SELECT DISTINCT `username` AS user, (SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT a.ci_id SEPARATOR ', ')

FROM ci_team_leaders AS a

LEFT JOIN `ci_courses` AS b ON a.ci_id=b.ci_id
LEFT JOIN `all_course_reg` AS c ON b.course_crn=c.reg_crn

WHERE a.username=user AND (SELECT COUNT(`reg_username`) FROM `all_course_reg` AS z WHERE z.`reg_crn`=c.reg_crn) > 1) AS CIs FROM `ci_team_leaders` WHERE CIs IS NOT NULL

Q: Give commands to localhost by subprocess.call I am new to python and Linux. I am trying to execute a bash command from python which gives a command to localhost.
Initally i tried with os.system
os.system('echo "(primitive-load \"/opt/doc/test.txt\")" |nc localhost xxxxx')

I have successfully called several commands using os.system. But this particular command with the file path does not execute. so i tried with subprocess.call
subprocess.call( 'echo "(primitive-load \"/opt/doc/test.txt\")" |nc localhost xxxxx')

But threw the following error.
 File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 523, in call
return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 711, in __init__
errread, errwrite)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1343, in _execute_child
raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I have also tried the following
command = 'echo "(primitive-load \"/opt/doc/test.scm\")"|nc localhost xxxxx;'
process = os.popen(command)

Any other way to achieve this?

A: Try the following maybe it can help in your situation:
import os

command = 'echo "test"'
process = os.popen(command)
output = str(process.read())

print output

Hope this helps don't forget to upvote

A: This solved my problem.
loadData='echo "(primitive-load \\"/opt/doc/body.txt\\")" |nc localhost xxxxxx'
subprocess.call(loadData,shell=True)

Stakeholder engagement: BASF's Palm Dialog featured in "Common Threads" report
BASF launched the Palm Dialog in 2016 in order to provide a platform for fruitful stakeholder exchange.
It is at the heart of BASF's culture to grow together with its stakeholders in the value chain. For addressing sustainable palm oil, and establishing other dialog formats BASF was now featured as a leader in stakeholder engagement in the annual report "Common Threads" of the advisory company "SustainAbility".
BASF's Palm Dialog – providing a roundtable on the issue
The expansion of palm oil production threatens environmentally sensitive areas of tropical forests and peatlands. Taking this as a call for action, BASF tackled the issue head-on in 2016 and established the Palm Dialog – a platform for representatives along the entire supply chain. Here, industry-relevant topics are discussed with suppliers, producers, partners, retailers, non-governmental organizations and industry associations on an eye-to-eye level. "We have built an expert team to engage with stakeholders and implement our Palm Commitment," says Brigitte Dittrich-Krämer, Sustainability Manager at BASF. "The goal was to address the concerns of all relevant stakeholders." The roundtable met a growing demand – today, it is hosted as an annual event attracting diverse stakeholders from around the world. More than only providing a platform, BASF derived ideas from the meetings and transformed them into strategic decisions. Dittrich-Krämer says: "This has been an internal success. It has led to changes in strategy and made BASF's approach more robust. Looking forward, I would like to see this become a blueprint for other projects." By staying in close contact with the stakeholders, BASF can live up to its commitment to drive sustainable sourcing of palm oil.
About "Common Threads"
The advisory firm "SustainAbility" scientifically evaluates sustainability topics in their annual "Common Threads" reports to generate advice for companies. This year's report takes a closer look at the complex relationship between stakeholders, engagement and business success and features progressive cases from the business world.

Science has long known that having positive social connection is important to a happy and healthy life. But less is understood about how our brains support and encourage connecting with others.
As mentioned, we are featuring a foundational Pervasive Neurotech patent a day, from older to newer by issue date. Today we are sharing a 2000 patent assigned to The Nielsen Company.


The perfect wide-angle lens for your Sony mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras, is the Sony 30mm F/2.8 DN Lens. The focal length is equivalent to a 45mm lens in full frame format (35mm) with a superb f/2.8 aperture that performs exceptionally well in low light conditions which is perfect for portraits, events, landscapes, casual snaps and many more.
This beautiful compact 30mm lens offers you excellent correction for all kinds of aberrations as it utilises special glass elements along with Sigma's Multi-Layer Coating in order to effectively reduce flare and ghosting for astonishing high contrast images from the center to the edges, a rounded 7-blade diaphragm to produce an attractive bokeh effect, a robust construction that contributes to the durability of the lens and a linear Autofocus motor (AF) that's incorporated to move the lens unit directly without the necessary help of gears or other extra mechanical parts as this system ensures accurate and quiet autofocusing which is ideal for both stills and video recording.
The lens features a very fast maximum aperture of f/2.8, this enables the lens to transfer up to 2 times more light to the sensor than a conventional zoom lens at the same focal length, and enables the camera to capture sharp and blur free images, even in low/dim light. The large f/2.8 aperture also enables you to capture a shallow depth of field, which will enable you to isolate your subject from the background for visually striking images.
The Sigma 30mm f/2.8 DN Lens features a optical construction that includes 2 glass moulded aspherical elements, a double-sided aspherical element, and a Super Multi-Layer Coating. These elements and coatings effectively reduces chromatic aberrations, flares, and ghosting to provide sharp and artefact free images.
The Sigma lens features a Hyper-Sonic motor (HSM) with internal focusing that delivers quick, accurate, smooth, and near silent focusing.
