Special:Contributions/Dscx ---- Boris Tsirelson (talk) 06:21, 5 April 2017 (CEST)
Special:Contributions/Alina123 + Special:Contributions/Masumtrump123. I wonder, is anything changed? My experiment shows that still a robot can write about customer phone number etc. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 09:10, 28 March 2017 (CEST)
Yes, the autoconfirmed users technique had been installed, but I was informed last night that it does not seem to work as expected. Problem still pending. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 10:28, 28 March 2017 (CEST)
The recent attack
As for me, it is the time to disable accounts creation at all (which is easy to do for those with root access), until a solution of the problem will be found. Or even turn the whole wiki to the read-only mode. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 16:16, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Yes, agreed. I already have urgently asked the admins a while ago to do that. Until their reaction we have to wait. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 16:23, 21 March 2017 (CET)
One more option: leave it "as is", but later (say, at night) restore the wiki from the backup made the last night (assuming that this is made every night). In this case it is worth to inform our active members not to edit articles for now. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 16:30, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Sorry, I'd see this proposal only now: The admins have disabled account creating, and I have tried to clean up the mess, which was a bit tricky because of funny page and user names.
I guess what Boris did propose below ("Autoconfirmed Users" ) was to implement something like this:
[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Autoconfirmed_users]
I have proposed to the admins to install this. This of course won't prohibit an attack like the one today, but would make it more difficult. Conditions to enable a new account to creat pages would be that it exists for a certain time (a day or so?), and that a few successful editions have been made (how many?). Any comments? --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 18:48, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Some earlier comments on the recent attack
Dadolus0 creates new pages when you delete old ones. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 15:45, 21 March 2017 (CET)
The war is blazing: Special:Contributions/Jack789 + Special:Contributions/Dadolus0 + Special:Contributions/Amitsingh123 + Special:Contributions/John11. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 15:40, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Now Special:Contributions/Xiwexa + Special:Contributions/Kejrilal7860. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 13:01, 21 March 2017 (CET)
You did not block Xiwexa before deletion, and it created Prem Ratan Dhan Payo 1-888- 361- 3731 Gmail Customer Service Colorado. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 13:27, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Also Special:Contributions/Garminhelp. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 11:39, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Oh well, is there a pattern? Fixed. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 11:47, 21 March 2017 (CET)
It seems, the pattern is that the spam message is contained in the page title, not in page text. Title contains a phone number. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 13:05, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Can we change the criteria of "I am not a robot" check? Not only external links, but also many digits (either in title or in article), as well as words "support", "business", "call" should alarm. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 13:14, 21 March 2017 (CET)
And, as before, I think that the best tool would be something like the "autoconfirmed user" on Wikipedia; only a user that did several changes to existing articles (not reverted soon) has more rights, such as article creation. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 13:23, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Really, this is nothing but the "Dealing with spammers" section on this page (by Richard Pinch). Boris Tsirelson (talk) 14:12, 21 March 2017 (CET)
A lot of new spammer accounts, suddenly!

Dealing with spammers
Is it possible to prevent new users from creating pages unless they have been approved by another editor for some period of time since creating their accounts, or until some number of new pages have been approved? Richard Pinch (talk) 08:43, 21 March 2017 (CET)
Keeping spammers away
It could help, to provide an account only after asking a math question and getting the right answer. The question should be replaced from time to time. Here is one, for example. :-)
Calculate the area of the set of points $(x,y)\in\R^2$ satisfying \[ \Big( \frac{x-5}{\sqrt{15}-2} \Big)^2 + \Big( \frac{y+3}{\sqrt{15}+2} \Big)^2 \le \frac3\pi \, . \] --Boris Tsirelson 11:12, 14 January 2012 (CET)
And we should not underestimate the problem. See e.g. [1], [2]. --Boris Tsirelson 13:27, 14 January 2012 (CET)
Something like the above has been implemented. Look at Special:Version, search for "ConfirmEdit". Questions are less sophisticated though. --Ulf Rehmann 13:35, 1 February 2012 (CET)
Well, I am glad it is considered seriously. But now (a) it asks me a question whenever I edit something, and (b) a bot can solve such questions easily. I'd prefer not to bother users that have accounts, but to ask harder questions when creating accounts. Like QuestyCaptcha. Of course, it is reasonable to reconsider accounts that exist when such system starts. --Boris Tsirelson 20:51, 3 February 2012 (CET)
I agree with your suggestions: it is inconvenient to have to answer a question every time one does a tiny edit. (In fact I was not aware of this fact until now.) I will mention this to the sysadmins and propose to modify this. However, all these things apparently need time. --Ulf Rehmann 21:24, 3 February 2012 (CET)
Unfortunately, my prediction seems to come true: "Typical solutions tend to be broken by newer spambots". --Boris Tsirelson 10:38, 28 March 2012 (CEST)
And again... --Boris Tsirelson 11:10, 10 May 2012 (CEST)
No, I am not glad but unhappy; it is not considered seriously. Talk:EoM:This project#Spam: what happens? :-( --Boris Tsirelson 21:24, 18 May 2012 (CEST)
Yes, I do understand your feelings, but I hope we can cope with this challenge as well, see here for my response. --Ulf Rehmann 00:07, 19 May 2012 (CEST)

"Asymptote" does not work anymore! Quite a pity. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 23:09, 17 October 2014 (CEST)
I have notified the sys admin about that. --Ulf Rehmann 00:26, 18 October 2014 (CEST)
It seems to be working again now. --Ulf Rehmann 00:06, 5 November 2014 (CET)
This question is for you. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 20:16, 12 April 2014 (CEST)
Interesting? Boris Tsirelson (talk) 20:55, 5 October 2013 (CEST)
Certainly interesting. In fact, a year ago or so I have tried to follow that way (InftyReader, Abbyy Finereader OCR) as described here to texnify our old image based pages, however, Abbyy OCR was not able to recognize reliably our bad quality images, so InftyReader could not be employed. --Ulf Rehmann 20:14, 12 October 2013 (CEST)

Obsolete pages
Please delete (include pages here for deletion, give a reason for deletion, and make sure no other main pages are linking to those pages by checking "What links here" in "Toolbox"):
User talk:******** ***-***-**** customer phone number ******** help support number (blanked spam; its name is itself spam). Boris Tsirelson (talk) 16:58, 3 February 2016 (CET)
Done --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 17:24, 3 February 2016 (CET)
No, sorry, the redirect page (with the spam name) still exists. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 18:20, 3 February 2016 (CET)
Oops! But now -- I hope. Thanks, Boris. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 19:43, 3 February 2016 (CET)
Nice. Regretfully, I repeatedly forget that my "move" is futile: I am able to create a new name, but unable to delete the old name. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 20:15, 3 February 2016 (CET)
I inadvertently created the page "Product topology" (in quotes). Could it be deleted, please? Richard Pinch (talk) 16:48, 3 January 2016 (CET)
Done. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 22:07, 3 January 2016 (CET)
I inadvertently created "discrete direct product" (in quotes) rather than discrete direct product. Could that be deleted please? Richard Pinch (talk) 19:02, 22 November 2014 (CET)
Thanks. Richard Pinch (talk) 08:35, 26 March 2016 (CET)

Thanks, Boris. Page Solenoid was still pointing to Arc simple arc Jordan arc, I fixed this. Pages are deleted now. --Ulf Rehmann 10:32, 15 August 2012 (CEST)

User talk:SEO Los Angeles (it was spam). --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 17:02, 27 November 2012 (CET)
Could we also have such a meeting place?
Something similar to this would be useful. (Or like this. But please, not like this.) And by the way, did you see this topic? An EoM-relevant quote from there follows. --Boris Tsirelson 15:05, 13 December 2011 (CET)
"I am the product manager at Springer responsible for managing the technical implementation of the new EOM wiki. I have adapted the citation template documentation for the template:SpringerEOM to use the proper naming convention for the new site. I will be closely watching the site's incoming traffic from WP and updating the ids of WP citations that used the template so that their link-outs will resolve to not only the correct article in the new EOM wiki, but to the version of the article that is identical to the version previously hosted at eom.springer.de.--Nbrothers (talk) 16:13, 30 November 2011 (UTC)"
Something is wrong, I guess; we have now both Category:Dynamical Systems and Ordinary Differential Equation and Category:Dynamical Systems and Ordinary Differential Equations. :-)
Thanks. I guess I fixed this.--Ulf Rehmann 22:43, 9 January 2012 (CET)
And by the way: when all first chars are uppercase and when they are not? --Boris Tsirelson 22:23, 9 January 2012 (CET)
Aha, I was careless here. What is the Wikipedia convention? What happens if I rename a category? Will the renameing shift all the entries in its files?--Ulf Rehmann 22:43, 9 January 2012 (CET)
On WP they are generally lowercase; example. No, I am afraid changes in all pages need to be made by hand. And by the way, also replacement of "unofficial" templates to "official" ones (when ready) will be made by hand. Unless we'll create corresponding bots, which is feasible but not so easy (as any programming). --Boris Tsirelson 22:47, 9 January 2012 (CET)
Ok. I'l fix the cases issues. Concerning the templates we'll see later. I guess when programming bots one needs admin access to the machine where the wikimedia is installed? That I don't have (otherwise we'd already have the ParserFunctions ext.... --Ulf Rehmann 23:32, 9 January 2012 (CET)
You mean, the root access. No. Not even admin rights on the wiki. I did it once on Wikipedia, being just a plain user. --Boris Tsirelson 06:47, 10 January 2012 (CET)
But for organizational reasons bots are best run from separate "bot" accounts. This link may be helpful. --Peter Schmitt 15:16, 10 January 2012 (CET)
Thanks for your hints. I did find perl based bot which works.--Ulf Rehmann 12:25, 11 January 2012 (CET)
Suggested move
I suggest to move Surjection to surjective function (leaving a redirect). I think that the adjective is more often used than the noun. (Move is listed among the "user" rights, but there is no "move" button.) --Peter Schmitt 02:47, 14 February 2012 (CET)
I have a "move" button, thus I guess you have, too. But maybe it does not fit into the (not so wide) window. Maybe after "Read", "Edit" and "View history" you have a small black triangle; put the cursor on it, and hopefully you get "Move" and "Watch". --Boris Tsirelson 07:13, 14 February 2012 (CET)
(Blushing) I overlooked this. In fact, now I remember that I noticed it some time ago but did not think of it now ... --Peter Schmitt 17:36, 14 February 2012 (CET)
I propose not to move "surjection" to "surjective function", as there are the notions of "surjective mapping" or "surjective morphism" etc. as well, which are all covered by the notion "surjection". You may want to look into MathSciNet for occurences of "surjection" under "anywhere" or even under "title" to find that notion used quite commonly. --Ulf Rehmann 09:44, 14 February 2012 (CET)
On the contrary, I'd say. In my view, these related concepts are an argument for having pages for each of them and using "surjection" or/and "surjective" as disambiguation pages pointing to them. (By the way, I think that function and mapping need to be better "coordinated". What do you think?) --Peter Schmitt 17:36, 14 February 2012 (CET)
Oh, well, is there any need to split some page of almost empty content (about surjection) into several disambiguated pages? On the other hand, your suggestion to coordinate the pages function, mapping definitely makes sense. But there are much more pages involved, at least Multi-valued mapping, Correspondence (here the notion within algebraic geometry certainly has to be expanded into a complete section, if not into a page of its own), further: Permutation, Morphism, Isomorphism, Epimorphism, Monomorphism, Endomorphism and the like (at the end of Morphism there are more), and then you are in the endless realm of categories, which gives you even more. --Ulf Rehmann 18:36, 14 February 2012 (CET)
I have just operated the page Isomorphism. See there for Categorization and literature, which is may be of relevance for the item Bijection. Mutual links probably were nice. --Ulf Rehmann 14:54, 18 February 2012 (CET)
Mistake needs correction
By mistake I moved Helly number instead of Helly theorem to Helly's theorem. I could revert the move, but now the redirect has to be deleted. Sorry for that! --Peter Schmitt 23:53, 6 March 2012 (CET)
Done. --Ulf Rehmann 00:13, 7 March 2012 (CET)
Thanks. --Peter Schmitt 00:38, 7 March 2012 (CET)
Pretex request
Hi Ulf -- I find myself with a bit more time to contribute. Could you do the same "PreTeX"ing for me for Topological algebra, Banach space, Commutative Banach algebra, C*-algebra, Group algebra. I see that this is done by an emacs script, but unfortunately I've not been able to get "its just text" to work on my version of firefox. (if there is another way please let me know/point me to the relevant page). --Jjg 15:52, 16 April 2012 (CEST)
Hi Sergei, it seems you did use a wrong signature: The name of your user page is User:Yakovenko, not what is shown in your signature. But the way, in case you want to change that name, I could do that for you.
Concerning "It's all text": In case you use emacs: You have to give the emacs command "M-x server-start" before clicking on the little edit button in oder to get it to work. I personally don't use firefox, but rather chromium, for which a similar macro has to be applied. The emacs script is very helpful, because allows to use the emacs minibuffer to reedit code which had been keyed in a bit before (just by using the up/down arrows).
Concerning PreTex: Will do so. I'll put the stuff into the respective discussion page of either page, with a short preamble or so. In fact we could do this for every page, since this can be automated. (However, I think the method above allows to work much faster...) --Ulf Rehmann 17:31, 16 April 2012 (CEST)
Hi Ulf -- Actually the sig is right: I am "J.J. Green"!. Thanks for the emacs advice, but in fact the problem seems to be my version of firefox conflicting with addon (there is no "edit button"), I'll try chrome ... Cheers --Jjg 17:41, 16 April 2012 (CEST)
Ok, sorry, I realized too late I was talking to the wrong addressee... Seems I'm talking to too many at the same time. Maybe you put some id into your user page?
The toy for chrome is "Edit with Emacs": https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ljobjlafonikaiipfkggjbhkghgicgoh
You should configure your emacs so that it honors utf-8, and also, that you don't close or leave chrome's edit window while you are editing in emacs, since this would mean you loose contact with the server, and if you close your emacs buffer than its content may be lost.
Another thing: I have, in my .emacs file, a line
(add-hook 'edit-server-start-hook 'turn-off-auto-fill)
because otherwise emacs tends to autofill the whole buffer, thereby destroying WP links. For convenient editing you can use M-x longlines-mode. --Ulf Rehmann 18:20, 16 April 2012 (CEST)
Hi Jim, I have prepared the pretex of the pages you mentioned in their respective talk pages. The Topological algebra had so little tex that I finished that rightaway (except that some MR/ZBL entries are too many, cold you please check and remove the nnosense?).
One more hint: The tex code entries in the above pretex files look like this "$ $". This is good for direct editing. The emacs macro won't work well for that. If you want to use that, you should make a global replacement '$ $' ==> '$_$' first. Then you can apply the macro, and it will traverse you trough all the tex places. --Ulf Rehmann 20:07, 16 April 2012 (CEST)
Help on sandbox
Do our help pages mention the idea of a (private) sandbox? This would be helpful, see for instance Talk:Normal form and User:Yakovenko/sandbox1. --Boris Tsirelson 07:43, 20 April 2012 (CEST)
I was absolutely thrilled by the simplicity and elegance of this solution! ;-) As a novice to Wiki, I also would suggest one-line help on how to create new pages and rename the old ones (with appropriate caveats about redirection). Sergei Yakovenko 12:44, 20 April 2012 (CEST)
Help on equation numbering
This also would be helpful; see Talk:EoM:This project#Hadamard theorem. --Boris Tsirelson 16:25, 21 April 2012 (CEST)
Pages that need some improvement
Hi Ulf. Is there a way to mark a page that needs to be updated or improved (or even created)? Or maybe to add it to a list somewhere? I've been doing some TeX conversion on two pages, and they both need a lot more than simple TeX conversion. They need to be updated and improved. Unfortunately, I have no time to do this right away, but maybe other people have. --Baptiste Calmes 22:41, 23 April 2012 (CEST)
We have to arrange something like a category "deficient". I'll do this within the next days, as there are several such pages which need modification, correction or urgent update. I think a category like this should work, assuming that if a page is deemed by someone to be 'deficient', reasons should be given on the associated talk page. --Ulf Rehmann 23:36, 23 April 2012 (CEST)
Recently I realized that in many cases the terminology is manifold and, say, "fibre bundle" is almost completely synonymous with the "fibration"... Of course, redirects solve the problem, but may be it makes sense to create genuine "keywords" as, say, a template (rather than just a search term) which would be treated almost as the page name when searched for?
How to implement it? By changing the mediawiki software? Much too much for our busy Springer programmers. And yes, redirects solve the problem, and are treated as the page name when searched for. So, is there still a problem? --Boris Tsirelson 11:08, 10 May 2012 (CEST)
I don't know. The problem with redirects is as follows: the same keyword may appear on many pages, while the redirect can be only to one place. I now realize that instead of keywords one could use (sub)categories, but then the question would be again in the numbers, - how strongly branching trees of the form {Differential Geometry -> Bundles and fibrations -> connections -> characteristic classes} we could tolerate. -- Sergei Yakovenko 13:23, 10 May 2012 (CEST)
Then maybe a keyword should be the name of a disambiguation page?
But all that could be discussed rather on Talk:EoM:This project. --Boris Tsirelson 14:42, 10 May 2012 (CEST)
Another example: currently the pages dedicated to connections on vector bundles and connections on a manifold are a complete mess, with two pages on parallel displacement, parallel displacement(2) (which is itself a bad translation from Russian, the right terms should be "translation" or "parallel transport"). I would suggest keeping two closely interlinked pages on "Parallel transport" and "Connection on a bundle", but clearly indicating all other relevant keywords at the beginning. -- Sergei Yakovenko 08:45, 10 May 2012 (CEST)
Deleting/renaming pages
Hi Ulf. I made a mistake and created a page under the entry Riesz reprensetation theorem. I canceled the content and transported it on a page with the correct title Riesz representation theorem because I did not find a way to rename the wrong one. How can we do that (if possible at all)? Please, could you also remove the page with the misspelled name? Thanks and sorry to bother. Camillo 15:40, 21 July 2012 (CEST)
Hi Camillo: I deleted that page. I think you could just have used "move" in order to give the page a new name. This would cause a redirect from the old page, but is probably less trouble for you. --Ulf Rehmann 16:14, 21 July 2012 (CEST)
Yes, Camillo, pages can be "moved", see the upper-right corner of the menu (triangle to the right of "View history"). --Boris Tsirelson 18:18, 21 July 2012 (CEST)
Ah, tricky that tiny triangle! Sorry, I guess it must be written somewhere, but I have the bad tendency of learning things by trial and error...Camillo 18:43, 21 July 2012 (CEST)
In a similar vein I inadvertently created "Whitehead module" before moving to Whitehead module. Please could you delete the redirect, which serves no real purpose? Thanks. Richard Pinch (talk) 09:04, 9 October 2016 (CEST)
Done. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 14:10, 9 October 2016 (CEST)
Thanks. Richard Pinch (talk) 17:50, 9 October 2016 (CEST)
Adding MSC and Zbl references
Hello Ulf. I have been making quite a lot of changes... before a question came to my mind. So far I have been adding MSC and Zbl links one by one myself: is that the only way or is there a faster method I am unaware of? Camillo 17:48, 9 September 2012 (CEST)
Hi Camillo: Yes, there is some. I have a perl script which automatically tries to find and insert the MR/ZBL links. I have just done this for the page Absolute_summability from your user page, to give you an idea. I could do this for all pages mentioned there, by applying some batch job. I already did this, e.g., for the pages mentioned on my user page, see User:Ulf_Rehmann/pages_related_to_algebraic_groups. However, the script does make mistakes. It won't find everything, and it also may find too many, e.g., if a reference does contain mistakes. Let me know if you want to give it a try. --Ulf Rehmann 22:17, 10 September 2012 (CEST)
Hello Ulf! It would be very helpful to apply your batch job to all the pages which I mention in User:Camillo.delellis as pages which I will modify sooner later. But among the ones which I already modified, it makes sense to do it only in
Arzela variation | Hardy variation | Jordan criterion | Jordan decomposition (of a function) | Jump function | Pierpont variation | Singular function | Tonelli plane variation | Variation of a function | Vitali variation | Cantor ternary function | Function of bounded variation.
To the others I already added all the MSC and Zbl myself. Thanks a lot. Camillo (talk) 21:32, 15 September 2012 (CEST)
EoM and Windows
Ulf, to your attention.--Boris Tsirelson (talk) 14:57, 25 October 2012 (CEST)
Issue on the "divisor" page
The page for divisor makes a (suspect) definition of a Cartier divisor on a general ringed space. It does this in the expected way by looking at global sections of a particular quotient of the sheaf of meromorphic functions, so I wanted to point out to you that it's not possible to define the sheaf of meromorphic functions on a general ringed space (at least not in the way you described, which would have been my guess, or in any other way that I know of)!
The problem is that total-quotient-ring isn't a functor: a homomorphism of rings only gives rise to one of total quotient rings only if the kernel consists entirely of zerodivisors, which needn't be the case for a general ringed space. (For arbitrary schemes, this is indeed the case, since a nonzerodivisor will remain nonzero in every open subset.) There may be a different way to construct Cartier divisors on ringed spaces, but I believe that what's currently written is incorrect! Xander Flood (talk) 03:45, 3 June 2014 (CEST)
Thanks for pointing this out. I have added a link to this in the comment page of Divisor_(algebraic_geometry) and will try to get this straightened out soon (as time permits). --Ulf Rehmann 00:46, 5 November 2014 (CET)
Issue with adding external links, new pages etc. (Resolved)
For several weeks now I have found myself unable to add external links, such as MSC categories, ZBL, MR, DOI references, or add new pages (even redirects). The issue seem to be the demise of the cats-and-dogs "captcha" facility. This is making it hard to contribute effectively. In the absence of even a temporary fix, perhaps you might like to consider granting sufficiently advanced permissions, on a temporary basis, of course, to regular users to enable them to do these things? Richard Pinch (talk) 17:57, 16 November 2014 (CET)
Yes, the situation is very unpleasant for many. I have a long nagging correspondence with the admins, the last message (dated Nov 13) says The new captcha is being installed in our development environment. Will keep you posted. I think I personally cannot grant those rights -- otherwise I would have done this already. Hopefully next week the new captcha will be installed. --Ulf Rehmann 18:48, 16 November 2014 (CET)
Thanks for that. I'll wait until the site is fully functioning again. Perhaps you would be so kind as to post on my talk page when that happens, please? That should alert me by email. Richard Pinch (talk) 19:13, 16 November 2014 (CET)
This seems to be resolved. A new captcha is installed. --Ulf Rehmann 18:57, 19 November 2014 (CET)
There still seem to be multiple bogus new user accounts and spam pages. Do you wish to extend the ability to delete pages and block spammers to a few more trusted users? Richard Pinch (talk) 19:31, 22 November 2014 (CET)
Ulf is an administrator, not a bureaucrat; he cannot. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 21:07, 22 November 2014 (CET)
Then perhaps he might wish to pass the suggestion on to someone who can act on it. Mind you, it's only a suggestion, on the assumption that help in getting rid of this nonsense would be welcome. Richard Pinch (talk) 21:36, 22 November 2014 (CET)
THanks a lot, that is very kind
Are you interested in helping? I should warn you: The mass deleting/blocking toys here are pretty uncomfortable (beta stuff). I do need the help of some perl scripts and the like in order to manage them. Anyway, I have asked for employing more admins. Ulf Rehmann 12:06, 24 November 2014 (CET)
We now have new and hopefully more efficient captcha questions installed. Let's see how the spam bots will cope with them! --Ulf Rehmann 18:33, 25 November 2014 (CET)
I would be happy to help out if you wish. Richard Pinch (talk) 21:52, 26 November 2014 (CET)
Thanks a lot, that is very kind of you. I already asked, but at the moment it seems the bureaucrats are hesitating to enlarge the group of administrators. See here for these groups. --Ulf Rehmann 22:28, 26 November 2014 (CET)
Still happy to help out if you wish. Richard Pinch (talk) 08:44, 21 March 2017 (CET)
I am puzzled with yours (your robot's?) recent redirects. Where are our articles "Markov chain" and "Markov process"? Why "Stochastic processes" redirects to itself? Boris Tsirelson (talk) 13:43, 13 March 2016 (CET)
Thanks for mentioning this. My mistake. The redirection names should not be internally capitalized (except of their first word): So "Markov chain" should redirect to "Markov chains" etc., but not "Markov Chain" etc. The list I got from the StatProb server has a capitalization which does not follow wiki conventions. It also had this stupid self reference for "stochastic processes". Thanks for finding these errors. Fixed by now. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 00:49, 14 March 2016 (CET)
But do you really want to discard "our" and retain only "new"? Boris Tsirelson (talk) 17:42, 13 March 2016 (CET)
Nope! I did restore our previous Markov chain and Markov process and installed redirections Markov chain (Statprob), Markov process (Statprob) instead, in order to reflect the Statprob links. --Ulf Rehmann (talk) 00:49, 14 March 2016 (CET)
Is content portable from here to another CC 3.0 site, like Wikipedia?
self-explanatory. LucasOne (talk) 21:10, 1 November 2016 (CET)
As far as I know (while waiting for Ulf), articles created by us (Richard Pinch, Camillo De Lellis, Sergei Yakovenko, myself and others, see Talk:EoM:This project#Our major contributions) is portable. But "old" articles, probably, belong to Springer. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 21:59, 1 November 2016 (CET)

Money Raised for Africa 'Goes to Civil Wars'
May 14, 2008 May 14, 2008 by Infinite
Imagine my shock.
Do you really think that anyone who's ever made a loan or grant to any dictator, anywhere in the world, has any doubt about what is going to happen with the money?
Sure, Bono is an idiot, people will say. Woops. Silly Bono.
While there are lots of idiots in the world, not many of them just happen to be A) responsible for genocide, directly, indirectly or otherwise and B) an honorary Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire.
It's all a coincidence, of course. As usual.
Via: New Zealand Herald:
Billions of dollars raised for African famine relief by celebrities Bono and Bob Geldof have instead funded civil war across the continent, says terrorism expert Dr Loretta Napoleoni.
London-based Napoleoni, in Auckland to appear at the Writers & Readers Festival, has written two books, Terror Inc: Tracing the Money Behind Global Terrorism and Insurgent Iraq: Al-Zarqawi and the New Generation, on the economics of terrorism.
Her latest book, Rogue Economics, studies the destabilising effect of economic globalisation, focusing in part on why more than half a trillion dollars worth of aid sent to Africa since the 1960s failed to reach the intended destination – developing the nations' economies.
That huge amount of aid, which includes money from the United Nations and donations generated by Live Aid for Ethiopia, organised by Geldof, and the Live 8 concert in 2005, organised by Bono, has instead "served as a rogue force, notably as an important form of terrorist financing" in countries such as Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan, Zimbabwe, Tanzania and Kenya. Ethiopia, for example, received $1.8 billion in foreign aid between 1982-85, including a large contribution from Live Aid; $1.6 billion of that, she points out, was spent on buying military equipment.

In 'Spies for Hire,' U.S. Security Gets Outsourced
World Bank `Destroyed Basic Grains' in Honduras


Chum: a close friend…or chopped fish, fish fluids, and other material thrown overboard as angling bait. Team Chum started as the first and possibly ended feeling like the second, but we think they are a catch.
Who determines the age at which someone is too young or too old. What age is appropriate to start dating or drinking or watching Star Wars? What are the specific life experiences which require a limit? The fact is, life starts at that first breath and the adventure of parenthood is not to be taken lightly, but it is to be taken one day at a time. Team Chum consisted of a father/daughter team, of which the daughter, Carrie, was the youngest applicant to be accepted into R2AK, 15 at application and 16 at the time of the race. Laura Dekker was 14 when she set out to become the youngest person to sail solo around the world, and the world threatened to take her away from her father for allowing it. Who is to say who was right?
The father in Team Chum's scenario is James, whose parents tossed him on a boat at age three and sailed him to Hawaii. By five, he had done the Panama Canal, and he was single-handing a sloop before ever riding a bike. Carrie caught the family passion for wind and water and took to the tiller. The two set out on a mission of over a year to fix up a free boat and make way to Alaska with the rest of us, but in the tumult which was the proving ground something shifted for James who began to feel responsibility for endangering his beloved child. He called for help and brought them both ashore, abandoning the rest of the race. He wrote a heartbreaking letter to their fans after opting out. They have since deleted their profile from Facebook and moved on with their lives, but if we could return their missive, this is what we would say.
When you keep on making a right turn, sometimes you end up back at the start. You did what you thought was right. That goes for every second of it, and we can only hope that this is how we all live life. We face it as it comes, we ride the waves, and when it all seems too much we have the strength and courage to ask for help. Do not live in regret, but try to accept that everything was right. It was right for you to sign up. It was right that you spent over a year together with a goal in mind. It was right that you set off holding the tiller and the sheet, with the wind in one hand and the water in the other. And it was right that you put your love for each other before the steak knives.
Did you still spend a year and more bonding over the preparation? Did you show up? Did you take it on and live and love in a shared experience? Absolutely. This is the best we can hope for anyone, that we show up in life. That our love for each other overrules any plan we think we should follow, and that we can change course when our heart demands it. You are an inspiration Team Chum, and we would be honored to call you even a distant friend.


A 'special project' is being put together by Fifa to improve the quality of African league football. Sepp Blatter, Fifa's president, acknowledged that African league football has suffered a severe drop in quality as a result of the exodus of players to European Asian leagues.
"One of the projects that we have, as we look forward to the 2010 World Cup, is doing something to improve the viability of African league football," Blatter said on Saturday.
"We have to curb the flight of players to Europe and Asia and see how companies can invest in the game.
"We shall start working on this project by September 2006. It is the special project for Africa in Fifa," Blatter said.
"For [the World Cup in] 2010 we have a special programme in conjunction with international bodies.
"The 2010 World Cup finals will not just be a South African World Cup but an African World Cup," Blatter said.
In a separate development, Blatter gave little regard to the accusation of Ochilo Ayacko, Kenya's Sports Minister, that the Harambee Stars were bribed to lose their last World Cup qualifier to Tunisia.
Tunisia confirmed their leadership of Group five, ahead of Morocco, after their 2-0 win in Nairobi.
"We haven't any proof that there has been any corruption." Blatter claimed.
"If you look at the game, Kenya had two chances but Tunisia scored with their first chance and then scored again.
"I know how emotional people are when they lose but football is a school of life and people must learn how to lose [gracefully]," Blatter said.
"The disciplinary committee is looking into that match and will come up with their findings after talking to the people concerned."

24 more native men come forward in Boy Scout leader's sex abuse case
By Tanya TalagaIndigenous Issues Columnist
Tues., Nov. 8, 2011timer5 min. read
Ralph Rowe was a burly Anglican priest who flew himself across northern Ontario for almost two decades, tending to churches in 20 First Nations communities.
He had the perfect cover for a pedophile.
The churchman was also a Scout leader who used his positions to surround himself with his prey.
But in 1994, his crimes caught up with him at Wunnumin Lake, a fly-in reserve 360 kilometres north of Sioux Lookout. Convicted on 39 counts of indecent assault against 15 boys aged 8 to 14, Rowe was sentenced to six years and served four and a half.
Now, 24 First Nations men have gone to the Ontario Provincial Police to complain that they, too, were molested by Rowe.
But part of his 1994 plea deal may prevent Rowe from being sentenced to more time. The Crown agreed that any other cases that surfaced would not result in more jail time as long as they predated the offence and involved no more serious behaviour.
That's not good enough for Nishnawbe Aski Nation Deputy Grand Chief Mike Metatawabin.
NAN, a political organization representing 49 northern First Nations, fears the 24 men will not get their day in court because of the deal.
"These men definitely want to go to trial," Metatawabin said. "They want to face Rowe."
Rowe is now 72 and believed to be living in Surrey, B.C. He could not be reached for comment. The Anglican Church of Canada's Paul Feheley, principal secretary to the primate, said Rowe resigned from the Anglican clergy in 1988.
The Rowe case has revived memories north of the 48th parallel since the CBC and Los Angeles Times joint investigation uncovered news that the Boy Scouts of America kept more than 5,000 suspected child molesters named in confidential files.
In light of the recent 24 allegations, the attorney general's office in Toronto said it is up to police to determine whether to investigate further.
"The Crown has not made a decision with respect to prosecuting any future charges, should they be laid," said Brendan Crawley of the Ministry of the Attorney General.
For the last several years, NAN has run a support group for 131 men they call the Ralph Rowe Survivors Network. Since 2005, the ministry has provided $1.5 million in funding to the group.
"The damage this person did to many innocent young men while he was working has caused so much dysfunction to many families," Metatawabin said.
While they do not have direct proof, NAN believes 18 suicides can be indirectly traced to Rowe's abuse. They also think more victims are out there.
"This is like the residential school scenario, only there has been no official apology or acknowledgment by both government and the communities," Metatawabin said.
Scouts Canada spokesman John Petitti said "it is a matter of public record" Rowe used his position of trust as an Anglican priest to commit terrible crimes during the 1970s and 1980s.
"He also abused his community status to gain entry and then betray the values of Scouts Canada," Petitti said in a statement to the Star. "Tragically some of his victims were also Scouters.
"Although we are constrained in our ability to speak to past legal settlements, his crimes were obviously horrendous and our deepest sympathies and concern extend to all those who suffered harm."
Rowe has been brought forward before the courts since 1994.
In 2006, Rowe faced another 31 alleged victims and 75 charges "spread over a vast expanse of Northwestern Ontario constituting more than 60,000 square miles in size," wrote Justice Erwin Stach in a July 2006 court document.
Preliminary hearings winnowed the number of charges against Rowe from 75 to 57 and complainants from 31 to 25.
Most charges concerned sexual assault and indecent assault and in the vast majority he pleaded guilty, said Robert Sinding, his lawyer at the time.
Of the 31, five went to trial. "The ones that went to trial was where the Crown alleged they didn't fit within the plea agreement because they were more serious," he said.
According to the evidence in three trials, the sexual offences involved inappropriate sexual fondling, masturbation and mutual masturbation.
Two cases ended up in convictions. Rowe was sentenced to three years in prison — one three-year sentence and another one-year concurrent.
In 2009, he was brought before the courts again on six new charges of indecent assault and one count of sexual assault. But those charges were similar to what he faced before, said Sinding.
So the Kenora judge sentenced him to a one-year sentence concurrent to what he was already serving. As a result, he only spent one additional night in jail.
Between 1971 and 1986, Rowe travelled throughout 18 isolated First Nations communities north of Thunder Bay flying into Fort Severn, Fort Hope, Sachigo Lake First Nation and Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug.
He learned Oji-Cree so he could communicate with the community elders and their children.
Rowe would take the boys on scout jamborees or trips across the country. Some of the abuse happened on planes, in the mission houses and on camping trips.
Don Hewitt is a former Ontario Provincial Police officer who originally worked with Rowe victims since the first cases were uncovered at Wunnumin Lake in 1992.
He is retired now and living in Prince Edward Island but he still flies to Thunder Bay every month to help the victims face the justice system.
"You know, with child abuse, there isn't a quick end to this. It takes a long time to come out and a lot of courage," he said.
"If this case was happening anywhere else, there would be hell to pay. Look at Cornwall, look at that investigation. But we don't have that in Thunder Bay. They are forgotten."
The Cornwall public inquiry, established in 2005, examined allegations of abuse involving youth but the 4-year, $53 million inquiry failed to show a pedophile ring.
A disturbing factor in the Rowe case is that a 1994 deal with the Crown prevents new victims from coming forward, said Toronto lawyer Julian Falconer.
"The Crown, by agreeing to seek concurrent sentences, if 'substantially similar allegations' arise, they are clearly sending the message that there is a one-size fits all approach to sexual abuse against First Nations children," he said from Toronto.
"If you are guilty of one count of sexual abusing a First Nations child it is the equivalent of being guilty of 10 or 20 or 30," Falconer said.
"This is a classic example, in my opinion, of what never would have happened if this kind of tragedy happened among white kids."

Tennessee Supreme Court Redefines "Reasonable Purpose" in Parental Relocation Cases: Aragon v. Aragon
K.O. HerstonChild Custody and Visitation, Postdivorce Issues, RelocationChild custody, Family law, Parental relocationLeave a comment
Facts: This is a parental relocation case where the Court of Appeals split 2-1 over what is meant by a "reasonable purpose" for a parent's relocation.
The facts of the case can be found in this post discussing the Court of Appeals' decision.
In the 2-1 decision from the Court of Appeals, the Majority held "the reasonable purpose of the proposed relocation must be a significant purpose, substantial when weighed against the gravity of the loss of the other parent's ability to participate fully in their children's lives in a more meaningful way."
The dissenting judge argued "reasonable" should be interpreted to mean ordinary, usual, rational, moderate, fair, and sensible, just as it is elsewhere in Tennessee law.
The Tennessee Supreme Court accepted Father's request to review the case.
On Appeal: The unanimous Tennessee Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals.
Tennessee's Parental Relocation Statute, Tennessee Code Annotated § 36-6-108, sets out a comprehensive framework for resolving disputes involving the relocation of a primary residential parent.
Where the parents are not spending substantially equal periods of time with their child, the parent seeking to relocate must notify the other parent of the intent to relocate and state his or her reasons for the proposed relocation. The burden then falls to the parent opposing the move to file a petition and prove one of the grounds enumerated in the statute. If this burden of proof is carried, the trial court may consider the best interest of the child and decide whether to permit the relocation. If this burden of proof is not carried, the trial court is obligated to grant permission for the relocation.
Rather than leave the decision in parental relocation matters to trial courts, with widely varying approaches, results, and timelines, the statute creates a mandatory structure that drastically limits the trial court's discretion and compresses the timeline for resolution. The statute includes a presumption in favor of permitting relocation when the parents do not spend equal intervals of time with the child.
The Supreme Court determined the legislative history surrounding the enactment of Tennessee Code Annotated § 36-6-108 does not support the Majority's interpretation of "reasonable" to mean "significant" or "substantial," nor does it support an approach in which the trial court weighs the purpose of the proposed relocation "against the gravity of the loss of the noncustodial parent's ability to participate fully in their children's lives in a more meaningful way":
Rather, the statutory structure and legislative history both indicate an intent to make relocation case is relatively clear-cut, to permit the parent who has been spending the majority of the residential parenting time with the child to relocate with the child without court intervention, except in unusual cases in which the other parent proves that the move is vindictive, risks serious harm to the child, or has no reasonable purpose at all.
We note that [the Majority's] view of the term "reasonable purpose" encourages trial courts to consider evidence that has little to do with the proposed purpose of the move and more to do with the perceived overall fairness of the primary residential parent's decision to relocate or whether the move is in the child's best interest.
For example, in the case at bar, the trial court factored into its decision Mother's assertion that, because neither parent could secure employment, she accepted work abroad with the understanding that Father intended to remain in middle Tennessee after he received his nursing education, but after obtaining the benefit of their bargain, Father decided not to seek a nursing job in Tennessee. These facts would be pertinent if the trial court were charged with deciding whether Father's proposed relocation was fair to Mother; it was not, however, tasked with making that determination. The testimony relied upon by the trial court in fact ranges far afield from an evaluation of the limited question of whether Father's stated purpose for moving to Arizona was reasonable. The rigid structure of § 36-6-108—in which best interest is reached only if and when the parent opposing the move proves one of the grounds—suggests that the "reasonable purpose" ground is not intended to be a guise under which the trial court may determine whether the parent's decision to relocate is wise or fair or in the child's best interest.
Accordingly, we overrule [prior caselaw in Tennessee] insofar as it interpret[s] the term "reasonable purpose" in § 36-6-108 to mean "a significant purpose, substantial when weighed against the gravity of the loss of the noncustodial parents ability to participate fully in their children's lives any more meaningful way." The term "reasonable purpose" should be given its ordinary meaning.
In the future, a "reasonable" purpose should be read to mean an ordinary, usual, rational, moderate, fair, or sensible purpose.
Thus, the trial court's denial of permission for Father to relocate to Arizona with the child was reversed along with the trial court's modification of the parenting plan to designate Mother as the primary residential parent.
K.O.'s Comment: (1) This opinion was written by Justice Holly Kirby, the still-reigning World's Most Awesome Judge. Prior to her elevation to the Supreme Court, she wrote the bulk of the family-law opinions from the Western Section. I predict she will write most of the family-law opinions issued by the Supreme Court during her tenure. Lawyers with family-law cases before the Supreme Court should expect her views on family-law matters to be particularly influential on her colleagues.
(2) This ruling makes it easier for a primary residential parent to relocate with the child. It substantially rewrites "reasonable purpose" jurisprudence in Tennessee by explicitly reversing the legal standard that originated in Webster v. Webster and was applied in cases like Carman v. Carman, Sanko v. Sanko, Thornloe v. Osborne, Redmon v. Redmon, and many others. Notably, the Webster opinion that started it all was also written by then-Judge Kirby.
(3) This is only the second time the Tennessee Supreme Court has addressed Tennessee's Parental Relocation Statute, Tennessee Code Annotated § 36-6-108. The other time was in Kawatra v. Kawatra, which dealt with how to measure each parent's time with their child.

Don't Look Now–Phillies Are on a Roll!
June 5, 2009 by jim mc
They don't call him "Hollywood" for nothing.
Cole Hamels continued his mastery of the Dodgers last night at Chavez Ravine, needing fewer than 100 pitches to post a five-hit, 3-0 shutout that extends the Fightin' Phils' winning streak to seven games.
The win also increased the team's lead in the NL East to four games over the NY Mets.
The Phillies now have the second-best record in baseball (32-20), behind only the Dodgers, and have the league's best road record (20-6).
The defending World Series champions (or WFC's, if you prefer) also have something else going for them: momentum.
While many, including ESPN's Chris Singleton, worry about the Phillies rotation—which, admittedly, has one of the highest ERAs in the majors—I see a team that appears to be hitting its stride just in time for the summer push.
In years past, a starting rotation that struggled as badly as this one had early on (now down to a 4.79 ERA, ranked 25th in the majors) would have meant a terribly slow start, leaving the team facing a very long climb over the summer.
The bats have come alive this season, led by offseason steal Raul Ibanez, former MVP Ryan Howard and future MVP Chase Utley.
And now, the pitching may be shaping up for another run at postseason glory.
Hamels appears to have shaken off his early-season injuries, and may be poised for a dominant second half.
Moyer finally got past win No. 250, which may have led to him pressing a little bit—not that he would ever admit it.
Chan Ho Park (or "Duck," as Bill Conlin likes to call him) is now out of harm's way, safely tucked in the bullpen for mop-up duty.
J.A. Happ has stepped in nicely and is looking to play the role of Kyle Kendrick (pre-September).
"Average Joe" Blanton may have a 5.86 ERA, but he's 4-3. In fact, all the Phillies current starters are over .500, except for Moyer (4-5).
Then there's this Bastardo kid that seems to like pitching in the majors and may stick around for a while.
Not to mention that the Phillies managed to survive the 50-game suspension of J.C. Romero and early-season hiccups from closer Brad Lidge.
And, after all that, here they sit: first place in the NL East, second-best record in baseball.
If this is how good they are with so-so pitching, imagine what lies ahead if they get their act together.
And they seem to be doing just that.

About Waseda Shibuya Senior High School
Waseda Shibuya Senior High School is a leading Japanese school in Singapore.
With the age of globalization, it is well known that the number of Japanese living outside of Japan continues to increase, and overseas child education is a major problem for overseas workers, especially education at overseas high school students. It has become. The school was established to meet the strong needs of these foreign nationals.
In today's world, and in Japanese society, we are experiencing the fastest rate of change in human history. But perhaps looking back from a future point in time, isn't it time to change at a slower rate than now? So much change in human science and technology and life is accelerating. At the same time, in the post-World War II history, there will be no times when the civilizations of the world have clashed and the politics and economy are more chaotic than today. But don't be afraid of change.

S&P Assigns 'BB' Ratings to Harbor Point's Bay Point Re
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services has assigned its 'BB' counterparty credit rating to Bay Point Re Ltd. and its 'BB' senior secured debt rating to Bay Point's term loan debt facility of up to $125 million with a stable outlook.
"Bay Point is a limited-life, special-purpose Class 3 reinsurance company domiciled in Bermuda and set up specifically to offer quota share reinsurance to Harbor Point Re Ltd. (Harbor Point; A-/Stable/-)," S&P noted.
"The senior debt rating reflects the modeled risk inherent in writing property catastrophe business and to a lesser extent Bay Point's delegation of underwriting authority to Harbor Point," explained S&P credit analyst James Brender. "These positive factors are balanced by Harbor Point's strong competitive position and risk management, good alignment of interests between Bay Point and its cedant, the unique structure of sidecars, and a low modeled probability of attachment."
S&P also indicated: "Leverage and coverage were not considered explicitly as ratings factors due to Bay Point Re's use of a trust structure. However, these factors indirectly affect the modeled results for a given capital structure and premium base. Bay Point Re may borrow up to $125 million from a consortium of banks for five years. The entity's capital structure will include an equal amount of equity.
"The proceeds from capital raising transactions will be placed in a collateral account, which will provide Harbor Point with a source of indemnity cover for losses relating to its property catastrophe lines of business and other related lines. The duration of Bay Point's assets will be consistent with that of its obligations.
"Harbor Point will cede a portion of its premium from its property business to Bay Point through a quota share reinsurance treaty under which Bay Point's liability will attach simultaneously with that of Harbor Point and otherwise follow the fortunes with respect to the business retroceded to Bay Point. The exact cession percentage will depend on Bay Point Re's collateral and Harbor Point's expected premium volume and probable maximum loss from a 1-in-100-year U.S. wind event and 1-in-250-year U.S. earthquake event. Initially, the quota share cession will be up to 50 percent."

Stop indulging the myth of journalistic impartiality
Posted on 9 February, 2017 23 December, 2016 by s.e. smith
I have worked in media for much of my adult professional life, and, as we know, I am unapologetically partial. Sometimes I am hired specifically for that partiality, as for example when I'm writing opinion pieces. But when I'm working on reported features, it's there too, and it shapes where I place work and who reads it. I don't set out to affirm a previously-held belief, but I also don't magically return a totally neutral story on whatever it is I'm exploring, whether it's labor rights or disability policy.
I can't speak for every journalist on the face of the earth, but many of my colleagues share a similar experience. We are humans. We have beliefs. Those beliefs make us partial. There's a reason one person might work for The Nation instead of The National Review. Both publications have slants. Writers at each have their own slants. Similarly, people don't apply to work at just any broadcast outlet. They pick NPR, or Fox News, or MSNBC, because that outlet both needs journalists and speaks to the kind of work they are interested in doing. The New York Times is generally understood to be centrist to left, unlike, say, the conservative Orange County Register. We all get this, right?
Apparently not, because 2016 was filled with people screaming about how journalists are supposed to be impartial. The New York Times even publicly scolded journalists for cracking Trump jokes on Twitter. Other news outlets similarly penalised reporters who had opinions or issued abject apologies to readers for failing to live up to what is, and always has been, a myth. Journalists and media aren't impartial because they are humans, or driven by humans.
Some outlets are explicitly partisan, attracting similarly-inclined journalists, and the people reading them have come to expect and sometimes even demand that. Others, large though they may be, try to represent a mix of information from a variety of people, but fundamentally also have a slant. There's a reason newspapers have editorials and election endorsements and those tell you something about the ethos and beliefs of those who run those publications. When the Times runs a page one commentary on gun control, that is not partial. It is also what the editors believe is a cultural imperative. And it's something readers may also think is an imperative — the same people shrieking about impartiality are usually also yelling when papers 'don't pay attention' or 'refuse to report' or 'cover up' things that they care about.
In some cases, there are definitely some important ethics issues that come up. For full-time journalists working in a newsroom, for example, it's not good to report on a campaign you donated to or volunteer for. Or in fact to report on your candidate's opponent. If you're reporting on development policy and you have a financial stake in, say, a building that's at the centre of a dispute, someone else needs to take that story. If you have a clear conflict of interest, that's an issue.
Sometimes that spills over into social media — though journalists aren't speaking for their organisation on their private social media, what they say definitely colours their reporting. Someone making fun of sources or trashing an issue and then reporting on it would give me room for pause. Someone making a constant stream of snarky Trump jokes might also be an issue if that person were a political reporter covering Trump or the election. But a single flip joke? The occasional casual comment? A criticism of the publication someone works for? This is not grounds for a public flogging.
Because journalists are human. And their biases are pretty obvious to anyone who sees where they work and reads what they write, so these things shouldn't come as a shock and a surprise. If someone reported broadly on Clinton and wrote sympathetic profiles of the candidate and her staff, seeing a Trump joke wouldn't shock me. If someone covers gun violence, making a snarky candidate about the NRA wouldn't come as a huge surprise.
The myth of impartiality is incredibly damaging because it puts journalists in gross places, but it's also not that great for papers/radio outlets/TV and readers. I follow a lot of journalists on social media because that is sort of what one does with one's colleagues, and also because often they have interesting thoughts, news, and commentary, not all of which makes it into their work. When I know a journalist solely as a byline and some articles, that's definitely a choice on that person's part, but I often long to know more about them. To hear where they are coming from when they work on stories. Following Alyssa Rosenberg, for example, expands my understanding of and appreciation for her work. Sarah Kendzior often has interesting commentary that helps me understand the world. Sometimes in conversations between journalists, I watch collaborations and stories taking form.
Don't think that you 'know' someone because you follow them on social media, or that you own them or they owe you their attention, that they must perform in a certain way to satisfy you. But view social media as an extension of a byline and bio, as an enrichment of their work. And better to see biases and opinions out in the open to know how they affect stories than to have them hidden out of view where you have no chance to engage with them — if a reporter hates disabled people, for example, I'd like to know that before reading their stories on disability issues. Rather than clinging to the myth of impartiality, embrace a world in which journalists feel more comfortable being open about their thoughts and feelings on the issues, including the issues we report on.

On performative environmentalism and water


OBJECTIVE Discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.
OVERVIEW The demonstration will show that excess carbon dioxide leads to higher temperatures.
SUPPLIES Two (2) clear 2-liter bottles.
Carbon dioxide has increased greatly in the atmosphere over the past 100 years. Although it comprises only 0.03% of the atmosphere, it has been linked to global warming.
Partially fill both bottles with water.
Add the seltzer tablets to one of the bottles.
Suspend the thermometers inside the bottles in such a way that you can measure the temperature of the air and seal the tops with molding clay.
Place the lamp at equal distance between each bottle.
After an hour, measure the temperature of the water in each bottle.
The seltzer tablets supplied one bottle with a source of carbon dioxide. The "fiz" will have heated faster and to a higher temperature than in the other bottle. The increase in heating ability is due to carbon dioxide's high capacity to hold heat.
In 1997, NASA reported global temperature measurements of the Earth's lower atmosphere obtained from satellites revealed no definitive warming trend over the past two decades. In fact, the trend appeared to be a decrease in actual temperature.
Conserve electricity. During periods of extreme heat, people tend to use a lot more power for air conditioning, which can lead to a power shortage or outage. Vacuum air conditioner filters weekly during periods of high use.
To see the full effect of the greenhouse effect, one only needs to look to the planet Venus.
The atmosphere of Venus consists of 96% carbon dioxide, 3.5% nitrogen, with the remaining amount, less than 1%, of other gasses.
This is hot enough to melt lead. Space craft that have successfully landed on venus, despite being well protected, have lasted only about an hour in the excessive heat and crushing pressure.


HIROSHIMA, Japan (AP) — Ryosuke Kikuchi drove in the go-ahead run on a squeeze bunt in a four-run ninth inning as Japan beat the MLB All-Stars 5-3 Tuesday and took a 3-1 lead in their six-game exhibition series.
MLB led 3-1 when Kirby Yates walked leadoff batter Kazuki Tanaka, who stole second and scored on Seiji Uebayashi's single just past the glove of diving shortstop Amed Rosario. Kosuke Tanaka hit a tying single, John Brebbia relieved and Kikuchi bunted up the line toward first baseman Carlos Santana for a sacrifice as Tanaka crossed the plate with a headfirst slide.
Yuki Yanagita added an RBI grounder for Japan, which was the visiting team.
Rhys Hoskins hit an opposite-field solo homer to right in the second and Ronald Acuna Jr., voted National League Rookie of the Year on Monday, made it 2-0 in the seventh when he scored on a double by Juan Soto, who finished second in the voting.
Akiyama hit an inside-the-park home run past a diving Soto and into the left-field corner in the eighth. Santana had a sacrifice fly in the bottom half off winner Yuki Matusi.
MLB starter Kenta Maeda, who spent nine seasons with the Hiroshima Carp before signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers ahead of the 2016 season, allowed one hit in two innings before Matt Andriese relieved. Hiroki Kuroda, a former Hiroshima and major league pitcher, threw out the ceremonial first pitch.
Yates dropped to 0-2 in the series, allowing four runs — two earned — two hits and two walks in two-thirds of an inning.
Yasuaki Yamasaki got three outs for the save.
The final two games are on Wednesday and Thursday in Nagoya.

Heinz Rutishauser (30 January 1918 – 10 November 1970) was a Swiss mathematician and a pioneer of modern numerical mathematics and computer science.

Life
Rutishauser's father died when he was 13 years old and his mother died three years later, so together with his younger brother and sister he went to live in their uncle's home. From 1936, Rutishauser studied mathematics at the ETH Zürich where he graduated in 1942. From 1942 to 1945, he was assistant of Walter Saxer at the ETH, and from 1945 to 1948, a mathematics teacher in Glarisegg and Trogen. In 1948, he received his Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from ETH with a well-received thesis on complex analysis.

From 1948 to 1949, Rutishauser was in the United States at the Universities of Harvard and Princeton to study the state of the art in computing. From 1949 to 1955, he was a research associate at the Institute for Applied Mathematics at ETH Zürich recently founded by Eduard Stiefel, where he worked together with Ambros Speiser on developing the first Swiss computer ERMETH, and developed the programming language Superplan (1949–1951), the name being a reference to Rechenplan (English: computation plan), in Konrad Zuse's terminology, designating a single Plankalkül program. He contributed especially in the field of compiler pioneering work and was eventually involved in defining the languages ALGOL 58 and ALGOL 60. He was a member of the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) IFIP Working Group 2.1 on Algorithmic Languages and Calculi, which specified, maintains, and supports ALGOL 60 and ALGOL 68.

Among other contributions, he introduced several basic syntactic features to computer programming, notably the reserved word (keyword) for for a for loop, first as the German für in Superplan, next via its English translation for in ALGOL 58.

In 1951, Rutishauser became a lecturer; in German, a Privatdozent. In 1955, he was appointed extraordinary professor, and 1962, Associate Professor of Applied Mathematics at the ETH. In 1968, he became the head of the Group for Computer Science which later became the Computer Science Institute and ultimately in 1981, The Division of Computer Science at ETH Zürich.

At least since the 1950s Rutishauser suffered from heart problems. In 1964, he suffered a heart attack from which he recovered. On 10 November 1970, he died in his office from acute heart failure. After his untimely death, his wife Margaret shepherded the publication of his posthumous works.

In the preface to his text Systematic Programming: An Introduction, Niklaus Wirth referred to Rutishauser as "... the originator of the idea of programming languages, and the co-author of ALGOL-60".

Q: CSS overlap multiple divs
Hello! I would like to accomplish this with a circle div. I know how to accomplish positioning with absolute and relative in 1 div, but if i want to make this out of two divs and make the circle overlapping these two divs is there any easy/smart way to go in CSS?

A: Hope it helps

Texas road trip: Dallas & Austin – life on macro.
Walk around Deep Ellum: a neighborhood that is quirky and has lots of wall murals everywhere.
3) Get BBQ from Pecan Lodge. Get here when it opens! Beef rib is where it's at. One of the best BBQs I've ever had. Also got brisket but man, that giant beef rib is SO worth it! We got there at opening time and there was already a congregation of hungry people waiting around.
*A little out of the way, but if you're in the neighborhood, stop by 9 Rabbits Bakery.
1) Hamilton Pool Preserve – such a cool place with a waterfall and places to sit and chill. $15 per car (cash). Plenty of parking. The day we went there, the water had high levels of bacteria so we were not allowed to go in. Would've loved to dive right in!
2) Salt Lick BBQ was one of the highly recommended bbq places but kinda out of the way. We still made it though! They also helped us take pictures in front of the meats that were being smoked.
Again, BEEF RIB IS WHERE IT'S AT.
4) Barton Creek Greenbelt – turns out there's some hiking in Austin.
5) Go for sunrise at the Austin 360 Bridge aka Pennybacker Bridge – A short 5-10 minute hike up to the overlook.


Fifteen young power apprentices are going to be keeping the lights on in their new careers with the electricity distributor UK Power Networks.
There were 350 applications for 15 places on the popular on-the-job training scheme which develops the skills needed to maintain, repair and expand the electricity networks that deliver electricity supplies to 8.1million homes and businesses.
The trainees will spend the next three years preparing to join the specialist teams who run the electricity networks across London, the South East and East Anglia 24 hours a day.
The apprentices will complete a Power Network Craftsperson Standard training programme specialising in either overhead lines (linesperson), underground cables (jointers) or electricity substations (fitters), gaining practical training and nationally-recognised Trailblazer qualifications.
In July a group of apprentices employed by UK Power Networks were honoured at the House of Commons after becoming the first apprentices in the country to successfully complete the new Trailblazer apprenticeship programme, designed by top employers to meet industry needs.
All the trainees working to the new Trailblazer standard work to a level of competency based on tried, tested and trusted methods in a sector where safety is paramount. On completion of their studies they will gain a Certificate in Electrical Power Engineering.
Their studies include formal training at UK Power Networks' training centres in Kent and Suffolk and on-the-job experience putting their skills into practice. The trainees will spend up to 11 months in residential training centres gaining the knowledge, skills and competency to work on the network before starting in their areas. The apprentices shadow experienced staff, participate in a 24-hour standby rota and have a gradual introduction to field work.
After they qualify they can complete more advanced qualifications and can apply for the company's supported studies programme to advance their careers. Many former apprentices have progressed to become senior managers within the company.
A dedicated free telephone number has been introduced - 105 - which customers can call if they have a power cut. This will get you through to your local network operator which runs the cables and power lines delivering electricity to your area.
