Court: Filthy - shocking pictures of Halifax sausage factory revealed
Shocking video footage and grisly photographs of a sausage factory in a Halifax barn expose appalling and filthy conditions which put thousands at serious risk.
The sausages were distributed to high profile pubs, cafes, hotels and restaurants across Calderdale and West Yorkshire - and were even supplied to the canteen at Halifax Town Hall and Eureka! The Children's Museum.
The operators of a B&L Sausages Ltd were sentenced this week after being convicted for breaches of food hygiene and safety regulations.
Prosecutor Howard Shaw told Bradford Crown Court how Brian Wainwright, 45, and his 38-year-old wife Lorraine had operated a company that produced sausages from \a barn at Mixenden Lodge Cottage Farm, Mixenden, that posed a 'high risk to public health'.
Mr Shaw said that when the barn was raided by Environmental Health inspectors in May 2012, officers discovered rat poison directly above the work station where the sausages were prepared, and filthy conditions including hanging cobwebs, cement dust and animal manure in the preparation area.
Sausage meat was left in open containers and dead animals including a cow and a chicken were left on the floor, in crates and hanging from a rusty hook.
Particles from the unsealed barn wall had fallen into the mincer and the tools including a meat cleaver and whisk were found to be rusty and caked in filth and blood.
During the raid, the farm's dog ran off with a lamb's head that was lying on the barn floor.
Mr Shaw said the sausages, produced during the time spent at the barn between April and May 2012, accounted for approximately 27,000 meals.
One cafe owner, not named in court, said the sausages "had a strange taste and would stick to teeth when you bit into them."
Mr Shaw added that there was no evidence of any actual food poisoning as a consequence of the breaches.
Judge Colin Burn said: "It is hard to imagine a more lethal environment for providing food for public consumption.
"It was undoubtedly a serious public health risk waiting to happen - it's a miracle that no one was seriously affected."
Mr Wainwright, of Lee Mount Road, Lee Mount, Halifax, was sentenced to eight months in prison for each offence, suspended for two years and was ordered to carry out 300 hours of community service.
He is also prohibited from managing a food production business.
Wainwright's wife, also of Lee Mount Road, received a fine of £750 for failing to provide information about suppliers of food to the company and businesses which had been supplied with products by B&L Sausages.
The sausages were described on the B&L Sausages' packaging as being "Passionately sourced in Yorkshire."
Speaking after the case Calderdale Council's Cabinet member for Economy and Environment, Barry Collins, said: "The Council welcomes this verdict. Our Environmental Health officers have worked tirelessly on this case, alongside the Food Standards Agency.
"People should be able to have faith that food businesses are following hygiene rules, and that the products they buy are safe to eat. When health is put at risk we won't hesitate to take action.
"We work hard to give local businesses the information they need to comply with food hygiene and safety rules, but when the advice and direction aren't taken, our only option is to prosecute.
"I thank everyone who has shown such determination in pursuing this case. It sends a clear message to other food businesses to make sure they put their customers' safety first."

City Furloughs Spare LAPD, While Raises Move Forward as Planned
Peter Haderlein
Previous Article Two (Not-So) Easy Pieces
Next Article LA City Budget in Crisis: The Sky is Falling
NEIGHBORHOOD POLITICS-On September 2, the LA City Council declared a fiscal emergency and voted to furlough more than 15,000 civilian employees for 18 days.
The cuts, now delayed until January 2021 pending ongoing labor negotiations, will cause city workers to lose one day of pay per pay-period in order to save the City $21.4 million. (Down from an estimated $104 million in savings under the initial September 2 furlough motion.) As the economic fallout of COVID-19 deepens, corresponding reductions in municipal services are predicted by City Administrative Officer Rich Llewellyn, and the Mayor isn't ruling out staff layoffs altogether. There are a handful of departments exempted from future furloughs, (sanitation workers, librarians, and firefighters), however, most notably the LAPD.
Having to decide which essential services will be maintained during a recession is never easy and hardly equitable, but it is the total exemption of the LAPD officers from present belt-tightening measures that gives the Budget Advocates pause, given that salaries for sworn police officers will actually increase by $123 million this fiscal year (with more raises planned in 2022) during the worst financial crisis faced by the city since the Great Recession.
The LAPPL and the City Council should immediately engage in conversations to correct this imbalance, as the situation they have created is untenable.
This year, members of the police union will receive a 4.8% raise, plus $41 million in new educational bonuses, as the result of incentives negotiated in 2019 between the City and the Police Protective League. The salary increases are being defended by city officials as necessary in order to keep LAPD compensation at par with other cities, even though California's police already have the highest average compensation compared with other states. Members of the department routinely earn six figure salaries after accounting for overtime and receive the majority (53.8%) of the unrestricted general fund of the city budget. (Last year's PD Budget was $2.898 billion compared to total unrestricted revenues of $5.379 billion.)
Even without the onset of a global pandemic, the City was hard pressed to afford the new LAPD incentive structure. A financial status report by the City Administrative Office in October 2019 found that recently negotiated deals with over a half-dozen public sector unions (including the LA Police Protective League and the Los Angeles Police Command Officer Association, among others), committed the City to additional personnel costs that outpaced revenue forecasts by over $100 million. This overspending now contributes to an impending budget shortfall, exacerbated by economic downturn, of at least $400 million.
Even though these raises were negotiated in 2019, implementing them at the present time makes for particularly poor optics given the widespread national conversation about police brutality in America. The LAPD's violent responses during this summer of protests prompted lawsuits and widespread community discontent with officer conduct. These suits will take years to resolve and will surely add to a ledger of settlements levied against the LAPD and the City that reached $370 million between 2005 and 2018 (put into context, this total amounted to 42% of the City's settlement payouts during the same time period).
Asking the police department union and the City Council to renegotiate officer raises or to merely defer them until the City's fiscal situation has improved is reasonable under such extraordinary circumstances, yet the City Council failed to even request this particular consideration in a 9-3 vote early last month.
With so many Angelenos having lost their businesses and jobs, and with the looming threats of foreclosures and further cuts to City staff and City services, increasing police department salaries at this time and exempting them from future furloughs would seem to run contrary to fiscal responsibility and fairness.

First Look at Windows 7's Backup and Restore Center
How to Update Your BIOS to Protect Against Vulnerabilities
The Best Ways to Get Windows 10 for Free
Am I Screwed If I Don't Upgrade Windows 7 by January 15?
Filed to:Screenshot Tour
It may have been a while since you considered using Windows' built-in tools for backing up your data, but for the average user with media and crucial file needs, Windows 7's default backup features look promising.
Windows Vista was the first version of Windows to introduce a consolidated Backup and Restore Center, and Windows 7's own backup center builds on it.
The strengths of Windows' own system are its ability to leverage the built-in "Shadow Copy" features to restore previous versions of individual files or folders, and make only iterative backups when necessary—if only part of a massive file has changed, only that part has to be transferred and copied over. It also supports backup to shared network space and external drives, but you'd hope any backup utility worth its salt would do so. In a pretty real way, this backup system is kind of like Leopard's Time Machine—but without all the eye candy.
Let's take a walk through the basics of Windows 7's backup system, and highlight the changes since Vista:
The first screen is pretty self-explanatory, but less tech-inclined users get a link to best practices for external backups (how they got to this screen in the first place is somewhat impressive, though):
Hit the "Add Network Location" button below that listing of non-internal drives, and you get a straight-forward directory and user/pass input dialog.
Vista asked backup users whether they wanted to back up "files or your entire computer." To those looking for simplicity, that's a pretty wide disparity to choose between—the entire barn or your selection of individual hay straws. Windows 7 breaks your options down into whether or not you want a restore-friendly system image, any particular data folders you want to save, and if you want to leave the system stuff to Windows' discretion or your own box-checking whims:
If you take the "Let me choose" route, you get to pick the folders and whether you want a system image for restoring:
If you opt for "Let Windows choose," you're told that every user gets their file backed up, and a system image is thrown in by default:
Either way you roll, you're asked to set up a regular schedule for your backups—daily, weekly, or monthly, at whatever hour you wish:
That's the end of the settings-fiddling, at least for now. Now onto the Backup and Restore Center, which is easy to get to from a start menu search or the Control Panel. It shows you the drive you've selected to be your backup receptacle, how much space is left on it, how much space is being used by Windows Backup, and, if you're currently running a backup, how far into the process you are. There's also some plain English about your last backup and what it had in it, but Windows 7 refused to believe my external drive had a backup finished not 20 minutes ago (did I need to set up a schedule to force recognition?)
The breakdown in space usage, accessed by choosing "Manage Space" from the main Backup and Restore window, is just about my favorite aspect of Windows-based backups. Unless you bought an external hard drive for the sole purpose of clean, conservative backups, you probably use it for all kinds of other stuff as well—downloads, media sharing/streaming, file transfers, and the like. Windows 7's backup gives you access to your previous system image files for deletion, shows exactly how much space is used by each of its backup components, and, knowing that it's only going to copy the new bits of files after a first backup, a pretty decent picture of what space you'll need to keep open for it:
None of this is to say that Windows' baked-in backup center is a substitute for a smart, powerful backup utility, of course. But for the relatives you're obliged to provide tech support for, and anyone who really just has their standard folders and not much else, it's a workable solution. For those looking for something with a bit more juice and extensibility, check out our readers' picks for the five best Windows backup tools and file syncing tools.
Five Best Windows Backup Tools
Click to view Your data is your life, and if you're not backing it up regularly, you're flirting…
What do you wish the built-in backup system in Windows 7, or farther ahead, could do on its own? Have you been getting by with Backup and Restore in Vista just fine? Tell us about it in the comments.

Posted in lists by Jeanie J. Rack-Jobber on Thursday, March 10th, 2011 - 9:04 am.
21. Wire – Chairs Missing
For a long time, I said this was my favorite record. It's the first pre-breakup Wire I heard– they were a late 70s art-punk band, broke up in 1980, and reformed five years later to make the records I heard first.
It's also… severe. Unlike Pink Flag or 154, though, it seems to be all about the tension between harshness and warmth, or trance and melody. A lot of people talk about "Outdoor Miner" as a "gem", a perfect tiny composition. Which I guess maybe it is if your primary listening strategy is to uneasily wonder whether anyone will ever surpass the Beatles– it's a nice piece of songwriting. It's just not *great* unless you've wound your way there through 24 minutes of Wire's un-pop imperiousness.
Although yeah, Sean, I want it played at my funeral too.
22. Camper Van Beethoven – Key Lime Pie
I've just noticed how unusual it was, when I bought this tape, that I was listening to an American band. And MAN are they American. Jack Ruby. Dreams of winning the lottery. Wide open spaces.
I thought it was cool that they had a violinist. Very classy. Except… listening now, on several songs the violin works mostly because it's so much like pedal steel, or whatever that note-bendy steel guitar sound is. Which is a sound I love but would have mistrusted at the time– too much like country music.
The best songs here (and I don't recall if this is what I thought at the time) seem to be the ones that lope along, like "Borderline" and "June". Not too fast or slow, but persistent. The whole thing has a strange sense of defiance.
Primary association with this record: my first step away from being a picky eater. Sometime that fall, I ordered key lime pie off a menu despite having no idea what it was, because I was curious. My mom, knowing how hard it was to get me to try foods I didn't already know I liked (even desserts) was very surprised.
23. Oingo Boingo – Boingo Alive
Another two-cassette best-of. It wasn't just that they were cheap; I liked the idea of a retrospective, of getting to absorb the whole framework of a band's career at once. At some point, the completist impulse would start to cut *against* buying anthologies, because if I ended up liking the band, I'd want all their albums and then that first thing I bought would have been a WASTE.
(This is somewhere between a best-of and a live album; they re-recorded everything anew for it on a "sound stage", which I actually don't know what that is but I assume it's… a facility for making records like this.)
I have to give Danny Elfman credit: although he likes singing about how stupid other people are, he (unlike a lot of other songwriters fascinated with their own superiority) actually has a positive vision of how things could be better. I mean, it mostly boils down to "eat, drink and be merry", but that's okay, his critiques are simplistic too. I'd (slightly) rather deal with someone who thinks everybody that disagrees with them is stupid than with someone who concludes a priori that everyone else is stupid and looks for ways to disagree with us. If you see what I mean.
Lyrics aside, this is mostly still a blast to listen to. The band are tight and, as I guess was always true, the lovesongs benefit from being sung by someone who is audibly more comfortable singing about the undead but does really want to let you know how he feels.
24. Love And Rockets – Love And Rockets
One late autumn day, a car pulled up in front of my house. A friend of mine leaned out the rear passenger window and mysteriously handed me this CD– actually, the same friend who'd randomly ragged on He Said. It never occurred to me until just now that he might have been trying to apologize.
I liked the album okay at the time, and so, excitedly, asked my parents' permission to go see Love And Rockets when they came to town. They were playing the Madison Civic Center, which is about as harmless a framing as a rock band could have. I didn't enjoy L&R's set much at all, but bought a shirt anyway (that's what you DO, right?) and it's actually become my favorite t-shirt– repeated laundering made it softer and softer without destroying it.
Back to now. This album is… stupid. Not stupid like hyphy, just like, misconceived and dim. It's a rock album made by people who think the heart of rock music is wearing leather and frowning a lot. It does get better as it goes on (starts with: snide fantasy about murdering journalists, ends with: some decent glam tunes) but eh.
Big single "So Alive" sounds worse in context than it would if it came on in my dentist's office, which, incidentally, wouldn't surprise me one bit.
25. Wire – Pink Flag
The face that launched a thousand three-chord ships! Kind of.
13 of the 21 songs are under 90 seconds, which raises doubts about my idea that they hadn't grown into their artiness yet in 1977. On the other hand, MAYBE this is super-formalized, but MAYBE it just seems like it fits inside the constraints of punk with perfect precision because this is what I think punk is.
I keep listening to see if Gilbert's lead guitar is as hesitant as on Chairs Missing, and instead I just don't hear it at all. Maybe at first he played rhythm guitar and Colin Newman just sang?
I don't remember who pointed this fact out to me, but Pink Flag has two conspicuous erasures of sex in song titles. The "that" in "106 Beats That" is masking a song about sex, and "12XU" supposedly gets its name from the punk version of a pre-song countoff: "one, two, one-two-fuck-you!" Yeah, I know that shouting "fuck you" isn't referring to sex, but the song itself is trying to capture sex en passant, with the repeated "Saw you in a mag, kissing a man"– everything else is left frozen. We infer it's a porn magazine, and infer further that it's gay porn, but all that's really there is the fetishization of evidence, which is a fetishization of whatever's been left out.
ANYWAY, I'm just noticing that "Field Day For The Sundays" also refers to erasing sexuality ("touched up near the waist / looking as limp as Sunday morning") and "Three Girl Rhumba" is poised via its title to describe some kind of sexual indulgence, but rigidly replaces its instructions (how to dance? how to pick up chicks?) with austere nonsense ("think of a number / divide it by two / don't get sucked under / a number's a number").
Also, as of like a month ago, a song from this album is the first song I learned to play on a guitar. Teen me would be proud.
26. Wire – 154
They changed fast. This sounds like post-breakup Wire quite a bit, only with the energy (and missteps) of being in new territory. Also, Lewis is singing sometimes, and quite noticeably.
It's grand, but has never jelled for me as an album. Having it end after "40 Versions" is the right thing– actually, with both this and Pink Flag, I might have to agree with the (finicky) decision to leave bonus tracks off the remasters. "12XU" should really be the final track, and while "40 Versions" isn't especially ending-y, the experimental bonus songs meant 154 ended with a whimper for me when I was in high school. (Chairs Missing has a nondescript ending anyhow, so "Former Airline" and "A Question Of Degree" more than redeem themselves.)
27. Husker Du – Zen Arcade
Another Rolling Stone-inspired purchase; I think it was on their list of "100 Essential Albums" or something. I figured it must be somehow about video games (maybe the RS writer thought so too?) which was enough for me. It's not, though. Is it? The story is detectable but hard to make out.
Even when Bob Mould isn't shouting, he just sings like he had long since shouted himself hoarse on the other songs: "Chartered Trips". If it's a narrative album maybe that vocal continuity makes sense, but the plotline, such as it is, seems to cover a period of days or weeks, so the hoarseness isn't diegetic or anything. It's just a fact of life when you're handling life's problems in the crucible of hardcore (which is still very much where Husker Du are at, here)… aggression is everywhere; even if you aren't angry right now, sounding like you were recently furious is a matter of identity, not mood.
They packaged it up well. I mean, this was my first hardcore record and a few of the louder cuts did turn me off (I think this listen today was the first time I appreciated "I'll Never Forget You") but for some reason it's all easy to take song by song. Hard to imagine now how a double-LP concept album struck people at the time– did Twin Cities punk kids already know they had this in them, or were they expecting the second half of Metal Circus? Or is the tension between 'real' songs and hardcore just something I'm projecting back onto that era?
28. The Sugarcubes – Here Today, Tomorrow Next Week!
I always liked Einar Orn, Bjork's peculiar co-vocalist in the Sugarcubes. He turns out to be more grating than I remember, but it's pleasantly grating. Bjork is just exhausting.
Einar sez: "My friends the alchemists / Told me everything was natural / And will always be that way"
This is much nicer when I don't pay too much attention to it.
I wanted to link to at least one song by way of demonstration, but both singers come off less intense in the video for "Eat The Menu" than in pure audio form: Bjork sounds less outrageous with her obvious physical agitation matching her vocal style, and Einar looks like just some dude in a rock band.
29. Madness – Absolutely
One album later, they've gone straight from a joke band to that oh-so-professional combo they've spent the three decades since as. Still some character bits and funny voices, but the persona of lead singer Suggs– dapper, sharp movements, raised eyebrow, half-smile– is now permanently the way things are.
They're also really a singles band, but the filler here is nice (and includes some memorable songs that I don't think were in fact released as singles, like "You Said").
30. Howard Jones – One To One
My first slow dance ever (at a last-night-of-camp dance I mentioned earlier) was to "No One Is To Blame", so I had a sentimental attachment to Howard Jones. I was also, however, suspicious of sentiment and couldn't 100% distinguish Howard Jones from Rick Astley in my head. So I didn't get this until I found it in a bargain bin that fall.
"There's more to me than this double bed" means the opposite to me now from what it did then! I thought a "double bed" was a big two-person bed, so "The Balance Of Love" had to be about ending a live-in relationship, but no, it's "we barely have a relationship anyway; I'm not inviting you over anymore".
I don't think I learned Jones was a Taoist until later, but from songs like "Good Luck, Bad Luck" I picked up that he had a philosophy motivating his music. Which kind of broke part of my sentimental attachment to "No One Is To Blame"– well, that and listening to it a few more times. It's clear that when he says "we" it's not the you-and-me "we" of a regular lovesong, and then there's that confusing "ever" when the title is sung: no one EVER is to blame. So the song still suited the memories of mine that it evoked, but it was hard to maintain the illusion that it was eerily appropriate to my situation, the way teenagers want slow dance songs to have been; it wasn't about me because it wasn't about anyone.
I'm not positive I get it even now. The rest of the song is obviously approaching desire from a Taoist perspective: you always want things, we all want things, we want each other, but wanting things is pain and getting what you want doesn't cure the pain. But most of Jones' Taoist lyrics are pretty direct evocations of particular stories from Zhuangzi or sayings from Laozi, and "no one is to blame" isn't, as far as I know. My best guess is that he means "don't hold it against people that they break your heart; all desire is heartbreak". Except that it's very hard to say the second part without sounding judgmental so he doesn't? Anyway, I'm not sure.
Maybe I should actually read the Dao De Jing at some point. A proper appreciation for late-80s synthpop demands it!

moses and monotheism summary
Viewing the full text of this document requires a subscription to PEP Web. Andrew Brown. 1350 BCE), that they subsequently killed the Egyptian Moses in rebellion, and still later joined with another monotheistic tribe in Midian who worshipped a volcano god called Yahweh. In our time, there seem to be a few ways of defining Jews in a world very largely of non-Jews: 1) As practitioners of one of the main world religions; 2) As a people whose ethnicity was hit not long ago by genocidal European Holocaust ; 3) As Diaspora auxiliary or citizens of the state of Israel situated precariously among Muslim countries to one extent or another hostile to that state; 4) As humans educated disproportionately to their global numbers; 5) As workers disproportionately numbered in the global ranks of business and the professions and with commensurate positions of relative authority. Highly speculative re-imagining of the Moses myth as well as a general account of primitive religions and the transition to a monotheistic platform. This is a serious oversight, as most of his information comes from other scholars. The first half of the book is the most interesting: Freud speculates that Moses was really an Egyptian who was devoted to Akhenaten's quasi-monotheistic "cult of the Aten" (which worshipped the sun-god as the major, if not the only, deity). I'm not sure why Freud is concerned about Moses's race. Freud therefore deduces that Moses was possibly a priest of the Aton who gathered his followers to flee into exile. ( Log Out / Experience teaches us that the world is not a nursery. Change ), You are commenting using your Twitter account. This is the kind of big, bold, bonkers moves that thinkers and "public intellectuals" used to carry out. [6][7], CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (, Brier, Bob. Rather, Freud postulates, it was a tradition that started as a reminder of the Egyptian origins of Moses' followers. Freud goes on to theorize that Moses was a very wilful and forceful man (as evidenced by his actions in the Book of Exodus) and points to several rebellions that he faces in Exodus; he deduces that in one of these rebellions Moses is killed by his followers. Archaeological evidence of the Amarna Heresy, Akhenaten's monotheistic Aten cult, had only been discovered in 1887 and the interpretation of that evidence was still in an early phase. The book is about far more that trying to make sense of the Exodus story. The ethical commands, to which religion seeks to lend its weight, require some other foundations instead, for human society cannot do without them, and it is dangerous to link up obedience to them with religious belief. In Moses and Monotheism, Freud first re-examines the story of Moses, attempting to pull reality from the mythos, and then he uses that story as an example of how traits of individual psychology can present themselves in mass psychology. I don't want to give too much away about his views and beliefs because if thats given away there is nothing left in the book. they wandered around, moses circumcised them, they met some others who joined up, all was well for a while and then they killed moses. I didn't put a number of stars on this review because, ironically, I don't have a single, uncomplex opinion of this book. Moses and Monotheism (German: Der Mann Moses und die monotheistische Religion) is a 1939 book about monotheism by Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis. There are pearls of insight: Moses was an Egyptian, probably a priest of Aten, the first monotheist religion; he joined with Hebrew groups, one of which worshiped a minor god named Yahweh; his compelling religion set its people apart; Christianity can be seen as the psychological drama of the son succeeding the old father.
A special kind of stupid — Freud sinking to the level of internet-conspiracy-theory-tier logic, suggests the Jews irl killed Moses so they could worship a volcano god. Freud then moves on to the subject of circumcision, in Judaism the symbol of God's covenant with Abraham. He was so concerned about this premise that he believed he could be assassinated by the Catholic church. Although, once you really look into his arguements, you see his proof is fragile and most of the time "proof" for his thesises ARE thesises he's conjured himself. In many respects, the book reiterates the theogony that Freud first argued in Totem and Taboo,[11] as Freud acknowledges in the text of Moses & Monotheism on several occasions. This volume contains Freud's speculations on various aspects of religion, on the basis of which he explains certain characteristics of the Jewish people in their relations with the Christians. Moses should be seen not as a historical figure, but a … The boy king's reign was famously short and in the power struggle following his death (most likely in a chariot accident) the general Horemheb became Pharaoh. Freud believed that the origins of Judaism begin with the Egyptian heretic king Akhenaten.
Refresh and try again. Akhenaton is a figure of history but not of memory." Stanford Libraries' official online search tool for books, media, journals, databases, government documents and more. Rational Believers must note how chaotic the Tanakh god does seem to be, and Freud refers to the Documentarian textual critiques of the Jahve and Elohim authorship of the Hebrew Bible.

Denver e-bike rebate funds exhausted for 2022
by: Nick Fischbach
DENVER (KDVR) — According to the City of Denver, the city's e-bike rebate program will be paused until early next year.
With the rebate, Denver residents are eligible for a $400 rebate off a qualifying electric bike, with an additional $500 rebate ($900 total) off the purchase of an e-cargo bike. Income-qualified residents can qualify for a $1,200 instant rebate. However, funds for the rebate have already been depleted for the year.
Grace Rink, Denver's Chief Climate Officer, explained, "We exhausted three years' worth of funding in six short months, and we're eager to bring back an expanded program that will serve more Denverites."

Gartner: Tablets Expected To Slow PC Sales
By Gladys Rama
Research firm Gartner Inc. slashed its forecast for worldwide PC shipments for the second quarter in a row.
The growing popularity of tablets and other Internet-enabled consumer devices will slow the demand for PCs, according to Gartner's announcement on Thursday. Gartner now expects total 2011 PC shipments to overtake 2010's shipments by 10.5 percent. However, that figure is down from Gartner's 15.9 percent estimate projected last November.
Gartner also lowered its forecast for next year. Worldwide PC shipments in 2012 will be 13.6 percent higher than in 2011, which is down from Gartner's previous projection of 14.8 percent.
Based on its adjusted projections, Gartner expects total worldwide PC shipments to be 387.8 million units in 2011 and 440.6 million units in 2012.
Mobile device sales have represented the bulwark of the overall PC market for consumers, and notebooks were the product of choice. However, mobile PCs are taking a hit as the range of consumer devices with built-in Internet capabilities, particularly tablets, has grown, according to Gartner.
"We expect growing consumer enthusiasm for mobile PC alternatives, such as the iPad and other media tablets, to dramatically slow home mobile PC sales, especially in mature markets," said Gartner research director George Shiffler in a press release. Shiffler expects consumers to keep their existing PCs for a longer time, and purchase tablets and other Internet-enabled alternatives as their primary mobile computing devices.
PC sales to enterprises will see some hits from tablets as well. Worldwide enterprise PC sales are expected to grow at a double-digit pace through 2012, fueled by companies' needs to replace aging units. "However, even in the professional market, media tablets are being considered as PC substitutes, likely at least delaying some PC replacements," said Raphael Vasquez, senior research analyst at Gartner, in the release.
Mobile PC growth has also been hampered by the devices simply not being mobile enough, according to Gartner. Today's notebooks are not substantially lighter than earlier versions, and their limited battery life puts them at a disadvantage in the current age of all-day connectivity.
"These limitations have become all the more apparent with the rapid spread of social networking, which thrives on constant and immediate connections," Gartner explained.

This was created in 1997, as a system that enables the society as a whole to provide long-term care to the elderlies, and was enforced in the year 2000. In Japan, before this enforcement, elderly care was expected to be managed within the households. However, due to increased participation of women, who were assumed to play an important role in long-term care, in the workforce, and the decline of extended families resulting into the shortage of bearers of long-term care, led to the need for socialization of care increasingly being expressed. At the same time, elderly care, which used to be a safeguarding system, changed to where elderlies were acknowledged as a "the insured" with an independent right, and the independence and their advocacy were valued (Refer to JHPN "Long-term Care Insurance Act" for more details).

This proposal was proposed by the "Dementia measures investigation project team" which belongs to the "An investigation team for the building of a new regional mental health care system" that was set up in 2010. This team was created in hopes for the deeper discussion on dementia measures. With the aims to change the way of thinking from the admission to a nursing home(institution), and hospitalization as being inevitable, to a society that respects one's opinion, even after diagnosed as dementia, and that enables them to continue living in familiar regions and environments as much as possible, the basic aims were set to develop the "Dementia Care Pathway (A flow that provide appropriate service depending on the condition)" to replace the existing flow of inappropriate care, "home →group home →nursing home or general or mental hospital". Furthermore, the plan to enhance the investigation and research for the promotion of such policy was noted.

In addition to the representative from every G8 nation, European Commission, WHO, and OECD that participated, the Senior Vice Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare from Japan participated, and explained the population ageing in Japan, the current situation with dementia, and the orange plan. During the conference, "A new international approach regarding dementia research, for example, not a single nation effort, but as a common goal for every nation and accelerating research" was agreed.
In response to the G8 Dementia Summit, the "Global Dementia Legacy Event Japan" was held in Tokyo in November 2014, with the theme of new care and prevention model. Health and Global Policy Institution gave support to this event and Kiyoshi Kurokawa, who is the chairman of the institution, gave a speech. On this occasion, the formulation of a new strategy, which consists of three pillars; 1. The construction of a routine medical system that offer a seamless service dependent on one's condition by having the healthcare and long-term care services to organically coordinate in addition to the early diagnosis and interventions; 2. To have a cross-ministerial and holistic strategy for the purpose of the development towards a dementia-friendly community; and 3. To prioritize the standpoint of persons with dementia and their families; was announced.
Also in accordance to the event, "Taking Action on Dementia: Opportunities for Social Investment- A G7 Global Dementia Legacy Event Private Sector Side Meeting" was held under the auspices of HGPI and OECD. A discussion between the private and public sector took place on the private sector-led strategies and approaches that are required to address the various existing issues related to dementia.
Based on the announcement at the Global Dementia Legacy Event Japan, in January 2015, the New Orange Plan was announced (presented). The New Orange Plan was framed with a standpoint of persons with dementia and their families, accordance to the holistic opinion gathered from the people with dementia and their families, and other people involved. Although this plan is set for 2025, the targets such as the numeral targets are deemed to be reviewed every three years. Moreover, having a cross-ministerial approach, with other ministries being involved including; the Cabinet Secretariat; Cabinet Office; National Police Agency; Financial Service Agency; Customers Affairs Agency; Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communication; Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology; Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries; Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry; Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism; instead of only the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare putting in the effort when setting the plan is a unique feature of this plan.

The color diagram gives a rough depiction of how the color temperature of sunlight transitions between each of the marked times, presuming clear skies.
Depiction of light as the day progresses from midday to dusk (or reverses towards dawn).
For locations near the poles, the above representation may no longer be representative.
Note how the contrast, direction and color temperature changes the appearance of the sphere as the day progresses. For more on types of light, also refer to the tutorial on natural light in photography.
Accuracy. What we really see during sunrise and sunset is the sun's apparent position — not its actual position. The apparent position is determined by how the sun's image gets refracted as viewed through the atmosphere, similar to how objects underwater appear shifted relative to their actual position. Therefore, the times above may differ from actual times by up to 5 minutes, depending on weather properties such as air temperature, humidity and turbulence.
Midday Time. This describes when the sun is highest in the sky, and is often also referred to as "high noon" or "astronomical noon." For situations when there is no sunrise or sunset, such as near the poles in summer and winter, this describes the time of day when the sky is least dark (and the sun is closest to the horizon).
Sunrise & Sunset. These represent when the upper edge of the sun's disc disappears below the horizon. During this time the sky may become an intense fiery red or pink, depending on cloud cover. The hour after sunrise and before sunset is commonly referred to as the "golden hour," since this is often when sunlight appears as a rich orange.
Dawn & Dusk. These represent the start and end of civil twilight, respectively (when the sun crosses 6° below the horizon). Unlike sunrise and sunset, these times aren't necessarily visually well-defined. In general though, twilight is when a clear sky is still bright and depicts colors other than a dark blue.
Perpetual Daylight. The sun remains above the horizon throughout the day, in which case both sunrise/sunset and dawn/dusk will be listed as "never." This can happen very close to the poles and/or near the summer equinox.
Perpetual Nighttime. The sun remains more than 6° below the horizon throughout, in which case both sunrise/sunset and dawn/dusk will be listed as "never." This can happen very close to the poles and/or near the winter solstice.
Perpetual Twilight. The sun remains below the horizon throughout the day, but never dips lower than 6° below the horizon. Both sunrise/sunset and dawn/dusk will be listed as "never." This can happen near the poles in the spring and fall.
Never Brighter than Twilight. At midday the sky is bright but the sun never rises above the horizon; at midnight the sky becomes dark since the sun dips at least 6° below the horizon. Only sunrise and sunset will be listed as "never."
Never Darker than Twilight. At midday the sun is high in the sky, but at midnight the sun never dips more than 6° below the horizon, so the sky remains relatively bright. Only dawn and dusk will be listed as "never."
Very high latitudes may also have more than one sunrise or sunset in a single day, but this calculator only mentions the first of each occurrence.
This one is more useful for night photography.

Q: Keyboard control not working I am currently trying to move a sprite using keyboard input.
Nothing looks wrong in my code :
function create(){
    cursors = Game.input.keyboard.createCursorKeys();
    /* ... */
}

function update(){
    var hitPlatform = Game.physics.arcade.collide(player, platforms);

    player.body.velocity.x = 0;
    if (cursors.left.isDown)
        player.body.velocity.x = -150;
    else if (cursors.right.isDown)
        player.body.velocity.x = 150;
    if (cursors.up.isDown && player.body.touching.down && hitPlatform)
        player.body.velocity.y = -350;
}

When I press cursor keys, nothing happens.
It seems that Phaser does not detect it when keys are down (cursors.left.isDown value does not change).

9/11/2006 - China's increasingly savvy chocolate consumers will be better equipped to choose higher quality chocolate if new regulations entering into force next month are properly enforced.
China's ministry of commerce has said that the fat content in chocolate must be made up of at least 95 per cent cocoa butter. Any products containing more than 5 per cent cocoa butter replacement cannot be labelled as chocolate after 1 December.
Currently only black and white chocolate must be labelled with the proportion of cocoa content, which must be a minimum of 18 per cent and 20 per cent respectively. Under the new regulation, to be policed by the quality and safety body AQSIQ, manufacturers must specify the proportion of cocoa substitute and type.
The law could significantly shake up the domestic confectionery sector. Only about a quarter of chocolate products on the market are made with pure cocoa butter, according to Chen Guoxing from the confectionery committee of China's Food Industry Association.
Others estimate that 90 per cent of Chinese chocolate makers rely on cocoa butter substitutes. This is a result of the significant price differential - a ton of cocoa costs around RMB30,000 while cocoa substitutes range from 6,000-15,000 depending on its quality and type.
Some in the industry are sceptical about how well the regulation will be enforced, particularly given its impact on the domestic industry.
Jimmy Yang of Palsgaard, an emulsifier supplier to chocolate makers, adds that it will be a difficult standard to police.
"It's not so easy to analyse cocoa butter content in a chocolate product," he told AP-Foodtechnology.com.
However many feel that China's confectionery industry is already moving towards higher quality products, independently of government regulation. The world's biggest chocolate maker, Barry Callebaut, says the Chinese market has been buying increasing amounts of higher quality product for some time.
"This [the new regulation] is a positive move towards quality but it is the market that is driving this trend ahead of any regulations," Maurizio Decio, the firm's vice president of Asia, told AP-Foodtechnology.com in a recent interview.
He added that the firm's gourmet business - selling chocolate to artisans, hotels and restaurants - is growing 'really, really strongly', another indication of the good demand for higher end products.
Others in the industry agree.
"Chinese customers are more and more concerned about quality as well as price. As a result, in order to better satisfy people's taste, more producers will use pure cocoa butter instead of substitute which has been adopted by most local companies," Chen from the food industry association said.
Shanghai-based confectionery firm Jinsihou says all of its new products are made with pure cocoa butter.
"We used to use substitute for most of our chocolates, like many Chinese companies. But the new types of our products are made of pure cocoa butter, which is becoming more and more trendy," said company spokesman Mr Zinghong.
He acknowledged that ingredient costs have since doubled but that Jinsihou does not want to be confined to a small section of the market.
"We believe it is the trend that customers will prefer better quality products as they get rich," he told AP-Foodtechnology.com.
The new regulations will be one of many topics under discussion at the Confectionery Manufacturing Expo running in Shanghai this week.


Here are some lists of works I'm more or less planning to write. Scheduled works are either begun or well-thought out and ready to begin. They are actually on my writing schedule. Concepts are either ideas that I haven't worked out yet or that I have worked out to some extent and just don't feel ready to write yet. Comments always interest me.
