The intersections and connections withing the indie music scene can be astonishing to consciously consider at times. Future History's CMW set was an occasion where this became all the more apparent.
Bumping into members of Goodnight, Sunrise — a happy coincidence repeated at the next venue — Joe and I heard a story about drummer auditions that six degrees style connected the two bands. In turn, the set itself was reflective of how a festival can throw monkey wrenches at bands sharing members. With a re-jigged line-up for the fest, Future History put on a different show from those I've covered previously. Unsurprisingly, it was still indie rock at its finest.
Kicking off with a stripped-down duo performance of "Leaves" in the audience, the band powered through a set primarily pulled from their sophomore disc Loss:/Self, throwing in stellar new track "Take Two" for good measure. Without loops and keyboards, the rock core of songs like "Ornamental State" shone through; softer tracks were even more melancholy and heartfelt. A band with a complex sound, this was a night of peeling layers back and in turn, it spotlighted the artistry of the songwriting just that much more.
Deconstruction can be beautiful in its revelations and Future History have built a band upon taking that tool to the human condition itself. Sometimes, on a night inside a dark bar, it's refreshing to marvel at exposed brick and appreciate the architecture.

I'm in another abusive situation at work. Why can't I seem to get away from these types of people as leaders? Someone suggested that it's because these kinds of personalities thrive in my industry. Perhaps that statement is correct. But probably there are other reasons, too.
All kinds of analysis could ensue from here. We could go the societal realm and detail how our society treats its laborers. We could talk about how even the eight-hour workday is somewhat new in this country. There could be a section focused on micromanagers, narcissists, and personality disorders in general. All of these would be meaningful and important.
At this point, I'll just do what I can to take steps that are good and kind toward myself and the person I believe to be in the wrong here. I'll talk with people who feel safe and discover whether I am able to transfer jobs within my organization. I'll do the tasks my boss asks of me and remember that I am not my work, but rather I am in this role for my own personal reasons (I like to pay my bills on time so I don't incur late fees and the water stays on and we keep this roof over our head, to name a few).
May we all love and nurture ourselves even when the going is rough.

Cyberpunk 2077: A Thorough Review
My thoughts after completing the main story of the game
Johnny Silverhand via Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077 has gotten a bit of a bad reputation. Some of this is indeed well-deserved, but it varies drastically how well-deserved it is depending on which platform you tried to play the game. I was lucky. Being an early adopter of the Xbox Series X, and having a backup console of the Xbox One X, I didn't see nearly the amount of glitch issues that others have reported on older consoles. And I did see quite a bit of glitches in the game. Apparently the glitches were so bad on PS4's that Playstation completely removed it from their online store!
The game developer CD Projekt Red has faced a lot of criticism, and even may face legal action over all the drama this game release has caused. But all of that is just noise and distraction at the end of the day. What is important to me really is quite simple: is this a good video game or not? I just finished a play through of the main story, and I'm here to tell you, not only is this a great game, but it's one of the best games I've ever played.
Does it have its problems? Yes. Like any game does when it is first released. It always takes a few updates and patches to smooth the kinks out of a new release. But, to be quite frank about it, Cyberpunk 2077 has literally so much to love, it really really sucks that gamers are focusing on the negatives and taking attention from the experience this game has to offer. Let's look at the positives.
Cyberpunk 2077 tells a fascinating and compelling story. It combines elements from several cornerstone pieces of science-fiction, such as Bladerunner, The Matrix, and mixes in some more niche references like Strange Days and Johnny Mnemonic. In this narrative, you find yourself in a large open world setting of a futuristic/dystopian society, where everyone is competing for status among different syndicate crime rings. The character you build gets a variation of a starting point depending on what allegiances you choose, but the story progresses in a similar fashion either way.
Due to a heist that goes wrong, you end up with a digitally extracted version of someone else implanted in your own brain. This makes you literally a character carrying another personality, and that other personality belongs to Johnny Silverhand, played by Keanu Reeves. The main crux of the story is that if you don't find a way to remove the implanted digital imprint of Johnny from your mind, it will end up overwriting your own mind, basically allowing Johnny to replace your existence, and "killing" you in the process. Your body will go on living, just without your consciousness within its brain.
As far as game storylines go, this is pretty awesome. It gives the narrative a real sense of urgency. It's an original concept, and it provides lots of cool moments for twists and turns along the way. There are obvious decision making moments that end up altering the way things play out later. One thing I really loved about it, was the relationship that builds between your character and the character of Johnny, even though Johnny is a character that lives inside your own brain. You are literally fighting the character of Johnny for your own existence, and yet, you find yourself attached to him anyway, as a sort of friendship builds between you. This may also be a result of my choices within the game. I could also have decided to make him more my enemy if I wanted, and the game could have went a different route. I like that a lot.
Along the way, in trying to save your own life while also somehow keeping Johnny alive, you meet a cast of characters that you can have assist you. These people within the context of the game all have their own storylines, and you can help them and get to know them along the way as well, or you can ignore them and keep pursuing your own path. I found them worth pursuing for the most part, and interacting with these characters only enhanced the outcome of the overall story. One thing that did frustrate me somewhat, was how once you completed a side character's storyline, you could no longer really interact with that character other than through messages or video calls. This kind of felt a bit shunted. One character that I started a romantic relationship with, for instance, I could not reconnect with later, even if I wanted to. I found that odd.
I'm not going to spoil the storyline for those who have yet to get very far in the narrative, but I can say that I feel it resolves itself in a satisfying manner. The choices you make in the process matter. They have weight and consequence. You find yourself thoroughly invested and emotionally affected. You care about the characters. This is what you want from a gaming experience.

The gameplay mechanics are solid. This is an immersive game that is also a lot of fun to play. It's a first person shooter, that is also a stealth strategy game, and a bit of an RPG in that you build your character stats to suit your own method of who you want your character to be. If I was going to fault it for something, I would fault it maybe for not being completely original in its gameplay system. But I what I found was a gameplay experience that was somewhat comfortably familiar to me, within a story framework that was so cool and unique, it felt kind of like the perfect mix of ingredients.
If I were to compare it to other games, I would say lovers of the original PC game Deus Ex are going to be extremely happy, because it pulls many of the best elements of that game, and applies them to the open world setting that is extremely similar to Grand Theft Auto. The way you build the character is reminiscent of Deus Ex, with a skill tree that allows you to build strengths in areas such as stealth or computer hacking or body strength. There are also body mod choices and weapon mod choices that feel borrowed from Deus Ex, albeit with updates. For me, this was awesome, because Deus Ex remains to this day one of my favorite games of all time.
When in stealth mode, which also feels similar to Deus Ex, in how you can find alternate routes around scenarios to avoid detection by cameras and foes, and then you can interact with computers to either remotely control the camera surveillance systems or shut them down, there is also a nod to another game, as when you are detected by an enemy the all-too-familiar bleep! from Metal Gear Solid sounds.
Overall, I enjoyed the gameplay mechanics of Cyberpunk. From the battle system to the stealth system to the cool Brain Dance review, within which you act like a detective capable of reliving others' memories on multiple sensory levels searching for clues, I found lots to admire. I also was pleasantly surprised by the purely adult nature of the game. There are scenes in this that are so shockingly adult, I found myself slack-jawed and laughing. For instance, after a particularly raunchy sex scene, if you search the room, you find a double-ended dildo in the bed, and another dildo that you can take and use as a blunt weapon. Hilarious.
One minor quibble in this section, the boss battles leave a lot to be desired. I found none of the bosses in this game even the least bit challenging or requiring of strategy to defeat. I think this may be one of the major glitches of the game, because the bosses always made dramatic entrances and seemed like they were going to be extremely difficult, but they always ended up taking no effort at all other than running around the room and shooting them. The bosses also frequently got stuck in random corners or in midair, unable to hit me, while I was able to just keep firing bullets into their bodies. Others would attack ruthlessly and appear like they would do massive amounts of damage, but they barely hurt me at all. They need to fix this. It didn't bother me too much, since it kept the story moving, but ultimately I'd like the game to challenge me more.
The Glitches
While I didn't experience some of the worst glitches that others have reported, I did see my share. Often they were funny, such as times when clothes would disappear, and you would be walking around in the world with nothing on but underpants. Other times, they were extremely annoying. The game would lock up and have to be restarted. After a reload, I would find myself unable to switch guns in critical situations of battle, or even unable to fire my weapon while aiming with it. The vision scanner would stop working.
One extremely infuriating malfunction, was when the game would tell me I had earned a new character level or perk level, and I would go to the menu to apply that point I had just earned, only to find it had disappeared. And even though the point I earned had not been used, my stat accumulation bar was reset back to zero, meaning I had to earn the next level of stat to get the next point, even though the game had failed to let me use the one I just earned!
Characters would keep on talking like you were holding your conversation with them, even if you switched over to do something else. Things would randomly explode if you touched them. This includes dead bodies. One time I set a body down that I was merely moving from side of the room to the other and it exploded spraying a pool of blood over the floor of the room. Another time, my car somehow stuck itself in the space occupied by another vehicle. When I went to get in the car, it blew up both vehicles. I was still allowed to drive my car away, it just didn't have any doors.
After shooting some characters, their guns would be left hanging in mid-air. You could often find yourself needing to select something to pick it up or move it, and the game just wouldn't let you highlight it. For as large an open world as this game happens to claim to be, you do end up running into the same character builds on the street over and over. I couldn't tell you how many times I walked by this one kid or this one overweight man in a tanktop.
The worst glitch I found though, was in the final cinematic. There is a pivotal choice you have to make that decides the entire fate of the game. When I went to make that choice, the game had glitched, and I was simply stuck, unable to make it. I had to reload a save and replay the entire cinematic in order to be able to make the choice. Talk about anti-climatic.
I think this game is much better than it gets credit for. The glitches got all the glory on the media attention of the perception of the product rather than what really matters, which is the story and the experience it offers to its players. So you may have to restart the game a few times, so what? So you may have to deal with some bugginess, and some annoyances, so what? All these things will be ironed out eventually. What matters is the story, and whether or not you have fun playing the damn game.
The story is awesome. The game is fun. End of rant.
Yes, maybe they could have delayed some more and got a more polished product released. But people had already complained and complained about how long they had already been forced to wait. In my opinion, I can't fault them for releasing the game when they did.
And despite its flaws, I found Cyberpunk 2077 to be a marvelous video game, and one that I will no doubt play through multiple times to see the various ways I can change the final outcome of the story.
Give it a shot, and I'm almost certain you'll end up agreeing with me.

We are seeking a talented early stage researcher (ESRs) wishing to pursue a Ph.D. in the field of developmental psychology and cognitive neuroscience. The position is part of SAPIENS, a pan-European Marie Sklodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network (EU Horizon 2020 Programme), which aims to investigate how the dynamics of early social exchanges support the development of the social brain. SAPIENS combines advances in ecological, mobile real-time brain and behaviour measurement, data modelling and artificial intelligence approaches to train a new generation of researchers in implementing these ground-breaking approaches to early social development.
The candidates have to meet (and provide proof that they meet) the following MSC-ITN criteria: 1. Mobility Rule: candidate must not have resided or carried out his/her main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country where the position is based (UK) for more than 12 months in the last 3 years. 2. Early Stage Researcher: the candidate is in the first four years of his/her research career and has not been awarded a doctoral degree. 3. The candidate must have a first degree in psychology, cognitive science, medical physics, mathematics or other related subject, and meet criteria for registration as a PhD student at the University of Cambridge. The ESRs will receive an attractive salary in accordance with the MSCA regulations for Early Stage Researchers.
Working in a team, the successful candidate will investigate how variation in the very earliest postnatal social interactions (hours and days) in human newborns influences the emergence of temporal lobe social brain function using fNIRS and EEG. As this is the phase of life with the most dramatic changes in sensory and interactive experience, it is the best age point of focus for seeking associations with emerging brain function. We will densely sample the social experience and interactions of the newborn in the home environment over this period to determine the association between very early experience and the emergence of specific social responses in the temporal lobe.
We are looking for a talented and motivated ESR (3 years, 100%) who will be supervised by Professor Mark Johnson and Dr Sarah Lloyd-Fox. The project will utilize a range of multidisciplinary techniques to study the developing brain. These include techniques for measuring infant brain development like EEG and NIRS. The successful candidate will be embedded in an active and social group of PhD students and junior and senior researchers with expertise across typical and atypical development. The SAPIENS network also offers a unique program of pan-European training in specialized and generalizable skills on topics such as project management, academic and communication skills, advanced analysis techniques in neuroimaging, typical and atypical brain development, entrepreneurship, translation, career development, and clinical diagnostics.
Once an offer of employment has been accepted, the successful candidate will be required to undergo a standard Disclosure and Barring Service check.
In addition, to apply for the PhD. Please complete the University GRADSAF application form. The course code is BLPC22 (PhD in Psychology).
Informal enquiries can be made to Mark Johnson ([Email Address Removed]).
Please note the closing date for applications is 17 April 2019. Applications received after this time will not be considered.
Please quote reference PJ18522 on your application and in any correspondence about this vacancy.

Affluent retirees love to complain about required minimum distributions, and it's easy to understand why: No one likes a requirement to take money they do not need out of their 401(k) and IRA accounts. That's particularly true for retirees who are bumped into higher marginal tax rates due to these withdrawals, especially when these RMDs increase the percentage of Social Security benefits that are subject to taxation.
My Morningstar colleagues have written about this over the years and have some strategies for how to minimize the RMD bite. Even with these strategies, there is no way to avoid the fact that RMDs are the other side of the tax-deferred account bargain. Savers enjoyed tax benefits when they contributed and as their accounts (hopefully) grew, in retirement the government would like to collect deferred part of the tax.


Once you have a plan for your kitchen remodeling project, consider the following tips as you start looking at new kitchen cabinets.
Make Sure They Fit – If your kitchen has add?areas, spend extra money on custom units so they fit to exact dimensions of the space. Having kitchen cabinets?hat look out of place can be just as bad as keeping your old cabinets.
Pick Quality Finishes – It doesn't matter if it is?maple, oak or cherry. You can spot quality kitchen cabinets?hen the grain matches from piece to piece.
Consider Durability and Warranty – While thermofoil or laminate kitchen cabinets are easier to clean and less expensive than solid wood, they are also less durable. It is?important to find out what the warranty covers when buying thermofoil or laminate kitchen cabinets.
Think About Beauty and Practicality – Pick kitchen cabinets that not only look beautiful, but are also useful. That means making sure they can withstand the pounding of heavy cookware and dishes, as well as countless openings and closings.

Digital technology continues to revolutionize the journalism industry as the mediums where messages are shared have become more diverse. The internet provides a unique platform for niche or specialized news sites for readers. Pop-up news websites are specialized news sites dedicated to a single topic and have a time-limited existence. These websites draw audiences that are interested in the topic or who are affected by the issue. For my pop-up news website, I and a team of students focused on covering anti-poverty efforts in regions around Santiago, Chile. Through our website we attempted to cover different efforts working towards reducing poverty, including the categories of development, relief, awareness, education and entrepreneurship. These efforts included individuals working on a family, government, and business level, which gave us several places to find sources who could speak on the issue.
Our project began through a meeting the six students going on the trip, Dr. Quint Randle and Dr. Ed Carter to determine the scope and goals of our project. After conducting research about which BYU programs were implementing anti-poverty projects during Spring Term 2016, we discovered that no programs were conducting these projects at the time. Because of this unfortunate development, we decided to go to Santiago, Chile. This location was chosen because of Dr. Ed Carter's extensive contacts near Santiago, Chile and due to the area's slowly shrinking socio-economic gap.
We then paired together students who have video experience with students who have print experience so they could help one another with media development weaknesses. The three pairs were assigned a category to focus on finding sources who were knowledgeable in the topic. These categories included: Education, Entrepreneurship and Social Conscience. My partner and I were assigned the Entrepreneurship category. A few weeks before our 10-day reporting trip to Santiago, Chile, we contacted several sources to interview and scouted potential places to find sources who could help us better understand how Chileans use entrepreneurship to provide for themselves. We planned to create at least three videos for our website section, an in-depth print story and other pieces of multi-media, such as slideshows and graphics.
Once we arrived in Chile, we began gather video and interview several individuals for our project in Santiago, Viña Del Mar and Valparaiso. We interviewed the individuals who were contacted beforehand and several others we met while in the country. Through visiting several historical landmarks and museums, we also learned more about the history of Human Rights violations in the country and its effect on the citizens of Chile. We were also lucky enough to cover a few different protests outside of La Moneda, which is comparable to our White House.
a platform for our site and use the Adobe Creative Suite to craft multimedia content after our raw content was translated into English. We used several elements of design to help make our website engaging and interesting to those who visit.
Our website can be found at http://www.changeforchile.com/. We created a homepage dedicated to our project theme and three other website pages titled, "Social Conscience," "Education" and "Entrepreneurship." The homepage includes our logo, photos, videos, a timeline and background information about Chile to aid those who are unfamiliar with the country's history. The other website pages feature 3-4 videos along with text describing the topic. We plan to keep the website active for five years to fulfill the characteristics of a pop-up news website being temporary.
There were several difficulties in creating a pop-up news website using content we captured in a foreign country. The first obstacle was the amount of time it took to translate the interviews and video we took on our trip. While over half of the group who went to Chile spoke Spanish some vocabulary words were out of our skill level and we had to consult several Spanish speakers for guidance. Another challenge was coordinating our diverse video and writing styles. We had to go through several drafts of our content to ensure a similar style that was consistent throughout our project. This coordination issue also persisted in our website style but was fixed by establishing a style guide.
For future pop-up news sites we may participate in or create, making sure we have the necessary language skills is essential while interviewing and transcribing project material. Establishing a video, text and website style should also be completed before people who are part of the project. This will help expedite editing and placing content online at a faster pace. Other topics individuals can explore in pop-up news websites is other multimedia we did not take advantage of, such as podcasts. These sites may also consider adding content to what they currently have, or including updates in policy issues or from interviewed sources.
Creating content for a pop-up news website about poverty was challenging and unlike any other experience I have had thus far in my education. Reporting on poverty in a different country was a unique experience because poverty in Chile comes from different roots than in the United States. It was challenging and fascinating to hear different people talk about the issue and how they worked with others to combat poverty. Asking the correct questions was essential as to not offend your source or portray Chilean poverty incorrectly. It was also beneficial to put a website together from scratch. Most traditional reporters work within a framework that has already been set up at a media company. For this project, we were able to determine our own definitive style for out content and website. This will be beneficial as we participate in several different media companies and projects in our careers.

Brexit: London demands long "Grace Period" for Northern Ireland
LONDON (Reuters) – The British government on Wednesday called on the European Union (EU) to extend the "concession period" on customs checks on goods traded between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK until 2023. Province to mitigate the impact of Brexit.
London also wants urgent political solutions to the problems caused by the post-Brexit rules.
"What is needed now are political and non-technical solutions," wrote Michael Covey, the minister responsible for coordinating government action, in a letter to Moroz Shefkovic, vice president of the European Commission.
"Currently the rules applicable to supermarkets and their suppliers should be extended until at least January 1, 2023. The eligibility for these rules should also be adjusted so that all local businesses and services can be included as merchants. Approved," the letter continues.
The offer period for supermarket chains and food items carried by some wholesalers from Great Britain to Northern Ireland is expected to expire at the end of March, according to the Brexit agreement between London and Brussels.
In response to Michael Gove's letter, Ireland said it supported Britain's request to extend the concession period as tensions escalated in northern Ireland's ports.
Many unionists are strongly opposed to the new tariffs introduced under the Northern Ireland Code between the British province of Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK, which is a separate agreement with Brexit.

EPCOT vs Reality | United Kingdom Edition

EPCOT vs Reality the United Kingdom edition explores the authenticity of the UK Pavilion at EPCOT in World Showcase.
UK Pavilion at EPCOT
The UK Pavilion at EPCOT does a great job of incorporating a lot of British history through the architecture used and whilst modern-day Britain doesn't look a lot like the pavilion, some things are still very much evident in UK life.
This post may contain affiliate links.
To which I earn a small commission, at zero cost to you!
Find more info in our Privacy Policy.
Let's start with the architecture. The pavilion has a thatched cottage reminiscent of the one that Anne Hathaway, Shakespeare's wife, grew up in. We do have thatched cottages in the UK but most of our housing is a traditional brick-built style. Many of the small villages still have thatched cottages and tourist areas, such as The Cotswolds, which have retained their traditional charm and are beautiful places to visit. The pavilion gives a nod to Hampton Court Palace (home of Henry VIII) with the red brick exterior of Sportsman's Shoppe and the lighter brickwork on the opposite side of the building always makes me think of The Tower Of London.
Stepping through the doors of the Rose and Crown it's as if you've been transported straight into a traditional British pub – it's exactly what they look like inside! Sadly these days our pubs aren't quite what they used to be and the traditional look is giving way to more modern 'gastro pubs' with more of a restaurant feel to them.
On the subject of the Rose and Crown, our bar staff (servers) don't wear outfits like the ones worn in EPCOT, they are very traditional and not something that has been seen for many, many years!
My favourite part of the UK pavilion is the gazebo – or the bandstand as we call them over here. There aren't many bandstands still standing these days, but you do find them in the coastal towns and in some of the larger parks. I love the bandstand because it always makes me think of Mary Poppins.
Probably the most iconic symbol of the UK has to be the red telephone boxes. Since the rise in popularity of mobile phones, most phone boxes have disappeared from our streets, but there are still some red phone boxes to be found. Some are used as actual phone boxes, others as art installations and others have been put to more creative uses, I have even seen one that is used as a library!
I do feel that the pavilion is lacking in its inclusion of Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. There are traditional items from each country available to purchase, such as tartan and love spoons, but would be great to see more representation of each country.
The Imagineers could include something about our famous Scottish golf course, Gleneagles, the Welsh mines and The Giant's Causeway. All would be fantastic additions and would make it feel much more like the UK, rather than being more England with a dash of the rest.
The UK pavilion has a few hidden gems that it would be remiss of me not to mention; firstly there are some great character meet and greets available here. Mary Poppins and Alice In Wonderland are regularly spotted and if you go inside the gift shop and right to the back of the store Winnie The Pooh and his friends can sometimes be found and usually without a queue too! Secondly, the maze is a nice way to spend a few minutes and to allow children to run off a little steam. Lastly, if you want to see a few surprises in this pavilion take up the Agent P mission and choose the UK as your starting point.
So whilst the UK pavilion may not be exactly true to life these days it is still most definitely worth a visit next time you are wandering around the World Showcase and if you want a taste of the UK, pick up one of our chocolate bars that are for sale – the Crunchie is my favourite!

\section{INTRODUCTION}

The simulation of interactions at the LHC is characterized by the use of
many different programs specializing in different stages of
the calculation, such as matrix-element-level event generation, decay
of resonances, parton showering, hadronization, and underlying event
simulation. The communication of simulation parameters between those
stages can be complicated and program-specific. For supersymmetric
models, this situation has been greatly improved by the introduction
of the SUSY Les Houches Accord \cite{Skands:2003cj} (SLHA) and its upcoming
extension \cite{Allanach:2007zz}. For general models however, there is
still no corresponding standard. In this note, we suggest an addition
to the SLHA to allow for the specification of the
quantum numbers, masses, and decays of arbitrary new states, thus
generalizing the accord beyond its original supersymmetry-specific
scope. We also make a proposal for how to include these model
parameter files into Les Houches Accord event files
\cite{Alwall:2006yp} (LHEF) in a standardized way. This
both reduces the number of files that need to be passed
around and minimizes the possibility
for error by keeping all relevant model information together with the
actual events.

\section{DEFINITION OF THE INTERFACE}
The concrete proposal consists of the following three points:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Introduce new SLHA-like blocks \ttt{QNUMBERS} (for ``quantum
  numbers'') with the format:
\begin{verbatim}
BLOCK QNUMBERS 7654321 # balleron
      1     0  # 3 times electric charge
      2     1  # number of spin states (2S+1)
      3     1  # colour rep (1: singlet, 3: triplet, 8: octet)
      4     0  # Particle/Antiparticle distinction (0=own anti)
\end{verbatim}
where this example pertains to a fictitious neutral spin-0
color-singlet self-conjugate particle to which we assign ``PDG'' code
7654321 and the name ``balleron''. That is, the \ttt{BLOCK}
declaration should define a PDG code and, optionally, a human readable
name after the \ttt{\#} character (if no name is given, the
PDG code may be used).
We advise to choose PDG numbers in excess of
3 million for new states, to minimize the  possibility of
conflict with already agreed-upon numbers \cite{Yao:2006px}.
The entries so far defined are: \ttt{1}: the electric
charge times 3 (so that most particles will have integer values, but
real numbers should also be accepted); \ttt{2}:
the particle's number of spin states: $2S+1$; \ttt{3}: the colour
representation of the particle, e.g., 1 for a
  singlet, 3 (-3) for a triplet (antitriplet), 8 for an octet, etc.;
\ttt{4}: particle/antiparticle distincition, should be 0 (zero) if the
particle is its own antiparticle, or 1 otherwise.
\item Use the existing SLHA blocks
  \ttt{MASS} and \ttt{DECAY}  \cite{Skands:2003cj}
  to define particle masses and decay tables. If the model in question
  is a SUSY model, a full SLHA spectrum
  \cite{Skands:2003cj} can also be included.
  We propose that the reader should ``turn on'' SUSY whenever
  the SLHA SUSY model definition block \ttt{MODSEL} is present.
\item Include the information from points 1 and 2 enclosed within the subtags
  \ttt{<slha> </slha>} in the \ttt{<header>} part of Les Houches event files
  \cite{Alwall:2006yp}.
\end{enumerate}

\section{IMPLEMENTATIONS}
For the purpose of this contribution, the above proposal was tested
explicitly by interfacing \tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent} with
\tsc{Pythia}. Below we summarize the main aspects of these
implementations.

\subsection{MadGraph/MadEvent implementation}
Starting from version 4 \cite{Alwall:2007st}, the multi-purpose
\tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent} parton-level event generator by
default includes a detailed summary of all simulation parameters in
the output LHEF \cite{Alwall:2006yp} parton-level event file. From
version 4.1.47, this information is stored in the XML
\texttt{<header>} section. For the interface
considered here, the relevant part of this section is a copy of the
so-called \ttt{param\_card.dat} \tsc{MG/ME} input file.

The \tsc{MG/ME} \ttt{param\_card.dat} uses an extension of the SUSY
Les Houches Accord \cite{Skands:2003cj,Allanach:2007zz} for model
parameters in all implemented models. In particular, it always
includes the \ttt{SMINPUTS}, \ttt{MASS}, and \ttt{DECAY} blocks. This
file is used by \tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent} as an input for cross
section computations and event generation but is not modified by the
program. The file is instead assumed to be created by an external
``Model Calculator''. Such calculators are currently available on the
web for the SM, MSSM and 2HDM models. Starting from the parameters in
the Lagrangian (primary parameters), they calculate all needed
secondary parameters (such as masses, decay widths, and auxiliary
parameters). Note that widths and branching ratios can also be
evaluated in an intermediate step by \tsc{MG/ME} itself or by
external tools like \ttt{DECAY} or \ttt{BRIDGE} \cite{Meade:2007js}.

In previous versions of \tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent}, the
\ttt{param\_card.dat} file did not contain information regarding the
particle content of the physical model considered. This
information is stored in the \ttt{particle.dat} file filled by model
writers during the model creation. Starting from version 4.1.43, the
template for inclusion of user defined models (called \ttt{USRMOD}) in
\tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent} automatically generates the \ttt{QNUMBERS} blocks
described above from the information contained in the
\ttt{particle.dat} file. These blocks are then included in the default
\ttt{param\_card.dat} for the new model (and from there are copied
into the LHEF output), such that no extra
intervention is required to pass them to parton shower programs after
parton-level event production. The script only outputs information for
particles which have PDG numbers not identified as standard SM or MSSM
particles, since those are assumed to be defined in the parton shower
generators.

Note that in the current version, the spin, color and
particle/antiparticle information is automatically extracted, but not
the electric charge, which is set to zero by default. This is due to
the fact that, in \tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent}, the electric charge does
not appear in the list of particle properties and is only defined
through the value of the coupling to the photon. This issue will be
addressed in future versions of \ttt{USRMOD}, but can currently be
circumvented by fixing the electric charge information by hand at the
end of the model implementation process.

\subsection{Pythia implementation}
The following capabilities are implemented in \tsc{Pythia 6.414}
\cite{Sjostrand:2006za} and subsequent versions.

Already for some time it has been possible
to use the \ttt{QNUMBERS} blocks described above to define new
particles in \tsc{Pythia} via its SLHA interface \cite{Pukhov:2005je}.
What is new is that, when reading an LHEF event file,
\tsc{Pythia} now automatically searches for \ttt{QNUMBERS} blocks in the header
part of the LHEF file, updating its internal particle data tables
accordingly. It then proceeds to search for \ttt{MASS} and \ttt{DECAY}
tables, and finally looks for other SLHA blocks contained in the header.
If the SUSY model definition block \ttt{MODSEL} is found, SUSY is
automatically switched on and the remaining SLHA blocks are read, without the
user having to intervene. The read-in of LHEF files containing general
BSM states, masses, and decay tables, should therefore now be relatively
`` plug-and-play''.

A note on decay tables: only 2- and 3-body decays can currently be handled
consistently. They are then generated with flat phase space, according
to the branching ratios input via the \ttt{DECAY} tables. The colour
flow algorithms have been substantially generalized, but if too many
coloured particles are involved (e.g., an octet decaying to three
octets) \tsc{Pythia} will still not be able to guess which colour flow to
use, leading to errors. Please also read the warnings in the section
on decay tables in the SLHA report \cite{Skands:2003cj}
concerning the dangers of
double counting partial widths and obliterating resonance shapes.
To get around the
restriction to flat phase space, either 1) use \tsc{Pythia}'s
internal resonance decays whenever possible
(e.g., do not read in decay tables for particles for which
\tsc{Pythia}'s internal treatment is not desired modified), 2) perform
the decays externally, before the event is handed to
\tsc{Pythia}, or 3) do a post facto re-weighting of the
generated events, based on the kinematics of the particle decays stored
in the event record.

The interfaces can of course still also be used stand-alone,
independently of LHEF. The user must then manually open a
spectrum file containing \ttt{QNUMBERS}
and \ttt{MASS} information and give \tsc{Pythia} the logical
unit number in \ttt{IMSS(21)}.
New states can then be read in via either of the calls\\
\code{CALL PYSLHA(0,KF,IFAIL)~~~~! look for QNUMBERS for PDG = KF}
\code{CALL PYSLHA(0,0,IFAIL)~~~~~! read in all QNUMBERS}
and \ttt{MASS} information can be read by\\
\code{CALL PYSLHA(5,KF,IFAIL)~~~~! look for MASS entry for PDG = KF}
\code{CALL PYSLHA(5,0,IFAIL)~~~~~! read in all MASS entries}
where \ttt{IFAIL} is a standard return code, which is zero if
everything went fine. (For read-in of a complete SLHA SUSY spectrum file,
these direct calls should not be used, instead  set \ttt{IMSS(1)=11}
before the call to \tsc{PYINIT}.) For stand-alone decay table read-in,
the unit number of the SLHA decay table file
should be given in \ttt{IMSS(22)}, and the corresponding
read-in calls are\\
\code{CALL PYSLHA(2,KF,IFAIL)~~~~! look for DECAY table for PDG = KF}
\code{CALL PYSLHA(2,0,IFAIL)~~~~~! read in all DECAY tables}

\section*{CONCLUSIONS AND OUTLOOK}
We have proposed a simple file-based interface between parton- and
event-level generators focusing on the particular problems encountered
in the simulation of beyond-the-standard-model collider physics.  To
deal with general BSM models, we add a new block \ttt{QNUMBERS} to the
SLHA structure, which defines the SM quantum numbers of new states for
use in subsequent resonance decay, parton showering, and hadronization
programs. We also integrate the SLHA file into the existing LHEF
format to minimize the number of separate files needed.  The proposal
has been tested explicitly by implementations in the
\tsc{MadGraph/MadEvent} and \tsc{Pythia6} Monte Carlo event generators.

In the near future, also the \tsc{Herwig++} \cite{Bahr:2007ni} and
\tsc{Pythia8} \cite{Sjostrand:2007gs} generators will be extended to
automatically read in SLHA spectra from LHEF headers. Likewise,
forthcoming versions of the \tsc{CalcHEP} \cite{Pukhov:2004ca} and
\tsc{CompHEP} \cite{Boos:2004kh} parton-level generators will include
write-out of this information in their LHEF output, including also the
\ttt{QNUMBERS} extension.

In the longer term, with the XML format emerging as the de
facto standard for file-based interfaces, we note that it could be worth
investigating the merits of formulating an XML-SLHA scheme, that is,
transforming the current ASCII SLHA format conventions into a native XML
form that could be parsed with standard XML packages. A concrete
first realization of such a strategy is HepML~\cite{Belov:2007qg} which
aims to unify the description of generator information in the form of
standard XML schemes, in which an XML-SLHA scheme would form a natural part.
The first release of the public HepML library
has been implemented into CompHEP version 4.5, including
also HepML headers in the LHEF output.

Souvenirs of Popular Craftsmen from Turkey
Category: Marmara Region
A Journey to Turkey means a journey into the history, culture, trade and pleasure. You can remember about this admiring souvenirs worth bringing from Turkey by anyone who will go to this country.
Sapanca Gölü - local recreation near Istanbul
We were driving on the highway from Istanbul towards Ankara about 15 kilometres after passing Izmit, when we have seen the Sapanca Lake in all its beauty, shimmering blue, on the left.
Bilecik province between Lake Iznik, Bursa and Eskisehir
In addition to the Turkish provinces of Bursa, Sakarya, Bolu, Kütahya and Eskişehir, which are all known far beyond the country's borders due to some products or events (Bursa for large industrial collections, Kütahya for porcelain factories), the province of Bilecik with the provincial capital of the same name of the Marmara region is almost Completely unknown and that despite the close proximity to the mentioned provinces.
Yalova on the Sea of Marmara - Istanbul by ferry
We were coming from Bursa on the D 575 towards Yalova. Since we only want to go on a day trip to Istanbul this time, we decided to take the speedboat ferry across the Sea of Marmara to avoid having to drive the much longer way around the bay of Izmit.
Adapazarı at the delta of the Sakarya River
Originally, Adapazarı was a small village that was located on a branch of the Sakarya river and was simply called Ada after the Turkish occupation under Sultan Orhan I in 1324.
The freshwater Lake Uluabat (Gölü) near Bursa
Once in the vicinity of Bursa, we of course also wanted to see the large freshwater lake Uluabat (Uluabat Gölü), or as it is often called due to the former Greek city, the Apolyont lake.
Troy - Heinrich Schliemann - Archeologist & Discoverer
Troy is probably one of the most well-known ancient cities. This is primarily due to Homer, who processed the history of the city of Troy in his famous epic "Iliad" almost 3,000 years ago.

How far does USB 2.0 extend?
Ever wonder how far you can put your USB peripheral from your PC? How many extenders can you add to a USB before there is simply too much cable loss. The answer is fairly simple with USB 2.0, its 5 meters (about 16 feet) So you can't just plug in a bunch of USB extender cables and hope it works.
You would have to introduce a powered USB hub to extend any further. Or another option is what's called an Active Extension Cable. An active extension cable has built in electronics which amplify and repeat the signal and allow you to go up to 30 meters (about 97 feet).

Government websites to use Open Source "wherever possible"
By Iain Roberts | Fri 4th June 2010 - 11:52 am
Follow @slowbikeiain
In response to a question from Tom Watson, Government minister Francis Maude asserted that Government departmental websites should "wherever possible" use Open Source Software. This is very significant change in emphasis from the previous government, which merely said that open source and proprietary solutions should both be considered on an equal footing.
The implication, if this policy is implemented, will be departments having to justify not using open source for their websites should they choose to go down the proprietary route. We await seeing how this turns out in practice, since warm words from the cabinet office don't necessarily translate into firm action at the departmental level.
Tom Watson (West Bromwich East, Labour)
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office what plans he has for the future of the (a) Number 10 and (b) Cabinet Office website; and if he will make a statement.
Francis Maude (Minister for the Cabinet Office; Horsham, Conservative)
The Government believe that departmental websites should be hubs for debate as well as information-where people come together to discuss issues and address challenges-and that this should be achieved efficiently and, whenever possible using open source software. Any future development of websites run by the Cabinet Office will be assessed and reviewed against these criteria.

Interesting approach, technically it's a breach of the EU procurement directives embodied in UK competition law to specify a solution in this way. There are ways round that, perhaps by building in-house or doing all the design in-house and then contracting the build using a restricted procurement, or keeping the project so small that it's not liable to be procured according to the directives.
How they'll do the work internally when they haven't got the skillset and they're not allowed to either increase headcount or buy in contract support isn't clear.
It's achievable, but it needs a little bit of creativity and original thought from the relevant people in corporate comms.
Renarde 4th Jun '10 - 12:04pm
Great news – for the country (due to money saved) and for open-source geeks like me!
Julia Hayward 4th Jun '10 - 12:16pm
A rather naive (or perhaps dogmatic) approach, to be honest. Going open source, you'll find a lot of very competent and inexpensive standard tools, but individual websites need to be built with those tools, and need to be maintained and administered. The open source world is not a charity, of course, and it makes its living on providing consultancy, training and relying on the relative scarcity of the skillsets needed compared to a certain well-known proprietary operating system.
Every procurement should look at the whole life costs of the application in question – and it may well be that the proprietary solution wins because the learning curve is so much less, you can take on staff at a lower level (or give it to existing ones) and still afford the occasonal consultancy day to get out of a hole if required.
Alistair 4th Jun '10 - 12:43pm
@Renarde
From a procurement and tech management perspective the savings aren't that significant. Licensing costs are far outweighed by the cost of support, and in most open source projects that I've had to develop business cases around the support costs are higher than proprietary products. There may be a debate around quality of support, but that's not easy to reflect in the business case.
The other side of it, it needs vendors to offer open source solutions in response to a procurement notice.
One of the issues that this has is that the sites are procured by coroporate comms people, PR muppets and spin doctors.
Paul McKeown 4th Jun '10 - 12:46pm
And howabout government mandating that no public service computer should be using Internet Explorer version 6 by the end of this year… ? Talk about ante-deluvian infrastructure.
Anyway, the weasel word lies in "website".
Most websites in the world are already hosted using LAMPS, Linux, Apache, MySQL, php/perl/python, rather than closed source solutions, e.g. based on Microsoft technologies using Windows, IIS, MS/SQL and ASP or .NET. Of course, with government, it may be that there is a preponderance of closed source, who knows.
But the important point to note is that this applies to "websites" which undoubtedly applies only to a tiny fraction of government IT. I hear no one saying that government staff are to use PCs running Linux with OpenOffice, or that general government data processing systems are to be Open Source.
Assessment: a useful step forward, but nothing revolutionary.
Iain Roberts 4th Jun '10 - 1:20pm
Julia – I doubt anyone is failing to understand that point. The issue with open source for websites is as much to do with escaping lock-in as anything; I think everyone's aware that license costs make up only a small proportion of the costs for that sort of project.
Paul – wider use of OSS would be welcome, but we shouldn't under-estimate the genuine problems moving desktops to OSS. The additional costs (e.g. re-writing macros, converting legacy formats, training) are potentially huge, as may be user resistance – which has killed many a well-intentioned move to OSS stone dead.
Paul McKeown 4th Jun '10 - 1:23pm
@Iain
All good points and understood, but without a genuine ambition nothing ever happens.
Andrew Suffield 4th Jun '10 - 2:04pm
it may well be that the proprietary solution wins because the learning curve is so much less, you can take on staff at a lower level (or give it to existing ones)
This sort of "we want to employ completely unskilled and incompetent staff, and hope the contractors won't screw us over because we sure won't be able to tell" thinking is how Labour managed to make such a mess of every IT project they ever handled. We would probably be much better off if the government stopped working that way. Skilled staff usually cost less anyway, because they get a lot more work done (factors of ten or more are typical).
When you accept the need to hire skilled staff, this sort of objection no longer applies.
Alistair 4th Jun '10 - 2:56pm
If you're costing a support function then you're looking at how much "availability" costs, not how quickly individuals fix problems. I'd also differentiate between in-house and external staff, and the argument about lower cost people applies on both sides of that, but you're looking for different skillsets. Frankly Cabinet Office do not need support techies on the crown side, they need effective contract managers to deal with their suppliers of techies. Many of those contract managers would benefit from a technical background, and that is a very clear weakness of the Civil Service at the moment, but not really in that level of detail.
As an example, a project I delivered needed 24/7 support availability. The costing was per day, and the assertion that capable OS support techies are somehow going to solve problems quicker than capable proprietary support techies really wasn't a factor. For what it's worth the supplier of the OS system forecast a higher demand on their techies anyway. Essentially paying an extra £100 per person per day very quickly mounted up to nearly £1/4M pa.
Essentially there is no convincing argument for HMG in-housing much of their technical requirement. the article that Iain wrote the other day on IT policy touched on that but nobody other than me engaged with that discussion. Nobody has made a case for bringing it in-house so it's all in the procurement cost.
The point that Iain makes about technology lock in is an important one, but I would argue that if the information and infrastructure are managed effectively and discretely then transition to a new infrastructure is eased. Even OS solutions risk some form of lock in, it depends on the design and implementation decisions made.
Cllr Mark Wright 4th Jun '10 - 3:56pm
Excellent news. Every journey starts with steps, which is what this is.
Simon Dickson 4th Jun '10 - 8:14pm
Disclaimer: I make my living building open source-based websites for government (as well as a couple of Lib Dem MPs). I do this primarily because I was a civil servant for 10+ years, and became appalled at how much was being spent on websites.
This statement has the potential to be as significant as Iain suggests. But it isn't about the underlying technology – Linux vs Windows, IIS vs Apache, etc. It's really about Content Management Systems. There are too many examples of departments spending hundreds of thousands, millions in some cases, procuring bespoke systems which don't then live up to expectations; or paying over-the-odds to design agencies still trying to squeeze the last drops of profit from in-house tools built a few years ago. Trust me – I sat in the meetings, I saw the invoices.
But over the last couple of years, there's been growing momentum in government behind WordPress – yes, the same WordPress used by LDV. No10 and the Wales Office run their main corporate websites on it, with another major department to follow imminently. Most Whitehall depts have run microsites or consultation sites on WordPress. It's actually a real success story: the UK has a very good reputation internationally for this stuff.
I believe we've proven our core point: that WordPress is perfectly adequate to run a modestly-sized website. Unlike most departmental CMSes, people actually like using it. Sites cost a fraction of what departments have been used to; and are usually delivered in a matter of days and weeks, not months and years. It has yet to let us down.
Francis Maude's apparent endorsement of the approach isn't a snap decision by the new administration. It's the end product of hard work, by small suppliers and civil servants, over a two year period. It's an idea whose time has come.
Dave Page 5th Jun '10 - 12:34am
Certainly a pleasing announcement. Personally, I'd still like to hear ministers talking about free software, in terms of the freedoms they secure for users, but I suspect such philosophically-driven pragmatism is a way off yet 😉
Bernie Hughes 5th Jun '10 - 2:07pm
Using Open Source whenever possible is a good principle.
When you're only talking about outward facing websites then certainly there is little issue, although the points by Julia above kick in. By putting any CMS in place you're allowing the business unit to focus on content and not the build. My own experience of government websites was that it doesn't really matter what the underlying CMS is once the technical departments get involved they distance the business users from the CMS and place themselves in the loop. That slows down any ability to actually provide the updates, a department I worked on a contract for used a WordPress website, and it still took two weeks to get information published because the one person that was "allowed" to update the site was on leave. I've seen some of the work that you've done, and the sites themselves are far more approachable and useful than many, but the content is let down by the governance regime behind making information available to the consumer. I did actually try to direct a client in your direction several months ago, but it was not to be…
What you describe above is similar to my own frustrations, contract management in the public sector is inconsistent at best, and non-existent at worst.
Maudes statement does only apply to the Cabinet Office platforms, which as you already identify are predominantly on Open Source foundations. Tom was somewhat disingenuous in his question as it was him that directed that decision. Also these web services should fall well below the procurement directive thresholds, so sourcing them is reasonably simple.
Where it's going to become a lot more complex, and where the points that Julia and I have made, is where the web platform is presenting a bigger or legacy system. Take the DWP and their Revs and Bens systems. Integrating a web presentation is likely to bring the project into the directives range, so open competition has to happen. For something of that scale a Competitive Dialogue is the likely approach, so a particular product cannot be specified.
Maybe I'm just not a good enough Lib Dem and should submit myuself for re-programming, but I don't accept this article of faith that Open Source is either an inherently Good Thing(tm) or automagically the correct answer to these questions. Bluntly there are far more signicant issues that will make a difference, including, again as Julia highlights, the need for training and culture change with any initiative.
And for what its worth the Open Source debate has gone on much longer than two years in government, the first time I recall being involved in the discussion in 2001.
Dave Page 5th Jun '10 - 2:46pm
Let's come up with a practical example that takes us away from the cost analysis side of things – while I'm pretty sure that free software has a lower TCO for most things, I don't think it's the important factor here.
Let's think about this from an economically liberal perspective, of competing forces in a market. If I buy in a proprietary solution from a vendor, then that vendor will usually be the only person who can support, maintain and expand it. The vendor has little incentive to do a good job, because the worse job they do, the more they can claim for support. Since pretty much all vendors behave like this, there's no way to choose a more equitable vendor – and small firms who adopt that approach will be crowded out of the market because they'll be compelled to charge more for doing a good job.
If we use free software, even if we pay a firm to carry out the installation and configuration, then we are not "locked in". Another firm can maintain it, a third can carry out extra work. At each stage of the process, we can make fresh decisions as to who best serves our needs as customers. Vendors have an incentive to do a good job at a reasonable price, and there is genuine competition.
Simon mentioned WordPress above. Personally, I'm more of a fan of Drupal – but since they're both free software, if I chose to switch from one to the other, then there are conversion tools to allow me to migrate my content simply. With free software, migrating data (which is the thing you really care about) between different software stacks is usually fairly simple, or at least achievable.

Q: Knockout: viewModel is not defined When using this JSFiddle as a reference to build a grid with organizable contents I ran into a problem. An error message says Error: viewModel is not defined.
It should normally work as in the example, since my viewModel is defined on the first line in JS. It may have something to do with requesting viewModel from within the template.
When checking other answers, they all were too generic. I didn't find one that answers one that solves my problem.

A: viewModel isn't defined in your viewmodel. When you call ko.applyBindings(viewModel); the name viewModel isn't carried in to be used in your binding references; I think you want $root instead. You should be able to do:

    <input data-bind="value: name, visibleAndSelect: $data === $root.selectedRowItem()" />

A: You need to instantiate your viewmodel when applying bindings, otherwise the constructor is not called. This is why it needs to be a function, not an object.
ko.applyBindings(new viewModel());

This is how your viewModel has to be changed:
var viewModel = function() {
    var self = this;

    self.gridItems= ko.observableArray(
        [{
          "rowItems": [{
            "name": "Item 1"
           }, {
            "name": "Item 2"
           }, {
            "name": "Item 3"
           }
          ]
       }, {
          "rowItems": [{
            "name": "Item 4"
          }]
       }, {
          "rowItems": [{
            "name": "Item 5"
          }, {
            "name": "Item 6"
          }]
       }]
    );
    self.selectedRowItem = ko.observable();
    self.selectRowItem = function(rowItem) {
        this.selectedRowItem(rowItem);
    };
};

Viewmodel properties are not meant to be changed or read from outside the viewmodel. To access your properties in your viewmodel, you cannot use viewmodel since it is not known in KO bindings context. You cann access those prefixing $root:

The nine words a mystery stranger used to save a man from killing himself
The amazing story of how two men became firm friends after a chance encounter when one of them was on the brink of suicide
Jonny Benjamin was standing on Waterloo Bridge, and thinking about ending it all.
He had been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder – a cross between schizophrenia and biopolar disorder.
Standing there on one of London's busiest bridges, he thought about the things that had come and gone, and was preparing to kill himself.
Neil Laybourn was just crossing the bridge himself when he spotted Jonny. Rushing over, Neil decided to say to him the nine words that would change both their lives.
"It will get better mate, you will get better," Neil said.
He spent the next 25 minutes talking to Jonny, a complete stranger. The emergency services soon arrived and the pair went their own way.
One of four homeless people to die in Bristol after 'using Spice' has been named as popular Punk Paul
Jonny's recovery was slow. It took him a long time before he started to feel better, but he eventually did, and never forgot about Neil. The problem was, he remembered Neil's name as Mike.
Launching a #FindMike social media campaign, it soon went viral. Within two weeks – and with the help of the internet – he found Neil.
Since that fateful day, the pair have been close friends. Suicide is the biggest killer of middle-aged and young men, and friends started to campaign together on mental health issues.
Earlier this year, Jonny was awarded an MBE for his services to mental health and suicide prevention.
He had come a long way from the man who once thought about ending it all.
Homeless people sent away from Bristol and the UK on one-way tickets paid by the council
Neil Laybourn with Jonny at Bristol University
Their powerful story has now been shared with staff and students at Bristol University, which has now signed the Time to Change employer pledge. It is an ongoing commitment to look at the mental health of its students and staff.
Last year, five Bristol University students took their own lives.
Jonny and Neil told a sold-out audience about their first encounter that winter morning on Waterloo Bridge and spoke about the importance of sharing your problems with those around you, reaching out for help and not suffering in silence.
When asked about what advice they would give to new students, Jonny said: "When I started university, it was really hard. I wanted to fit in and be like everyone else. I just shut down and didn't talk about the struggles I was facing.
"It's so important to talk about it and know that you're not alone. It's amazing to discover that people are feeling the same. Be brave and open up to those around you."
Woman is rushed to hospital after being hit by a bus in Southmead
Professor Hugh Brady, Vice-Chancellor and President of the university, said: "Signing the pledge is part of the university's commitment to changing how we think, talk and act about mental health, and ensuring students and staff who are facing these problems feel supported.
"None of us are immune to mental health difficulties – whether that be our own, a family member, friend, classmate, colleague, or a stranger you meet by chance, who needs someone to notice that they are struggling.
"There are increasing levels of concern about mental health across the higher education sector and we're committed to helping all our students cope with the various pressures they may face, while also breaking down the stigma around mental health."
The university recently announced that it would be investing an additional £1 million per year to introduce a team of 28 full-time mental health advisers and managers, who will be embedded in academic departments and cater for the welfare needs of students.
How these volunteers saved a homeless man's life after he collapsed in Bristol city centre
Most people who are thinking of taking their own life have shown warning signs beforehand.
These can include becoming depressed, showing sudden changes in behaviour, talking about wanting to die and feelings of hopelessness.
These feelings do improve and can be treated.

In the last years the harmful effects and the greenhouse gases resulting from the use of conventional vehicles created many concerns on continuing in the same direction. Hybrid or electric vehicles and alternative fuels like natural gas, ethanol or hydrogen are considered an essential element in reducing urban pollution and greenhouse gases. But only a wide dissemination of "clean vehicles and fuels" can have noticeable effects on the environment. Therefore governments, in addition to the support of research and development, more and more implement measures with the aim of promoting the market introduction of these new vehicle technologies – with different approaches and various effects.
Between 2000 and 2002 an international task force collected information on more than 100 programs run in 18 countries. Evaluations and analyses of case studies showed that some approaches are successful, but they also identified weaknesses that are often repeated. The report elaborated by the task force provides recommendations on the base of conclusions drawn by the analyses. They will help government officials responsible for administering fleets, incentives and regulations with assessing the most promising strategy for their country for the market introduction of hybrid, electric and alternative fuel vehicles.
