The Problem With Digital Locks
The National Post runs a masthead editorial that tears apart the digital lock rules in Bill C-11, describing the bill as a "flawed piece of legislation" that the government should either kill or amend on its own initiative. It argues: Preventing consumers from playing material that they have paid for, […]

Privacy Commissioner of Canada on Lawful Access: Deep Concerns
The Privacy Commissioner of Canada Jennifer Stoddart has written a public letter to Public Safety Minister Vic Toews to express her deep concerns with forthcoming lawful access legislation. Stoddart's letter notes:
Despite repeated calls, no systematic case has yet been made to justify the extent of the new investigative capabilities that would have been created by the bills. Canadian authorities have yet to provide the public with evidence to suggest that CSIS or Canadian police cannot perform their duties under the current regime. One-off cases and isolated incidents should not prove the rule, nor should exigent or emergency circumstances, for which there are already Criminal Code provisions.

The Daily Digital Lock Dissenter, Day 18: Canadian Bar Association
The Canadian Bar Association, which represents 37,000 lawyers, law professors, and students from across the country, released an important submission on Bill C-32. The submission, which was approved as a public statement by both the National Intellectual Property and the Privacy and Access Law Sections of the CBA, did a nice job setting out the debate over Bill C-32 (I was once a member of the CBA's Copyright Policy section but was not involved in the drafting of the Bill C-32 document).
The CBA submission is notable as a strong counter to the frequent attempts to characterize critics of digital lock rules or other elements of the bill as "anti-copyright." Far from the claims that there is near unanimity in support of DMCA-style reforms, the CBA submission confirms that the legal experts who work on copyright issues on a daily basis are deeply divided on many issues. While some members supported the digital lock rules, there was a clear divide:

Friends is an American television sitcom, created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman, which aired on NBC from September 22, 1994 to May 6, 2004, lasting ten seasons. With an ensemble cast starring Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer, the show revolves around six 20–30-something friends living in Manhattan. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest TV shows of all time. The series was produced by Bright/Kauffman/Crane Productions, in association with Warner Bros. Television. The original executive producers were Kevin S. Bright, Marta Kauffman, and David Crane.
Filming of the show took place at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California. All ten seasons of Friends ranked within the top ten of the final television season ratings; ultimately reaching the no. 1 spot in its eighth season. The series finale, aired on May 6, 2004, was watched by around 52.5 million American viewers, making it the fifth most-watched series finale in television history, and the most-watched television episode of the 2000s decade.

Camping caravans motorhomes are obviously the cheapest option. Basically you can pitch up anywhere you fancy in Ireland apart from some seaside car parks which will display a sign against overnight stays, but you are better off to go to an organised site for your own safety and to have the use of bathroom facilities. Caravan parks here were traditionally seaside retreats outside of large towns where Mammy and the kids would head off to on school holidays. Mostly private owned small communities were formed and continued through generations, much like cruisers on the Shannon.

Fireman's competition is about camaraderie
The annual firefighter's competition held at the Lebanon Area Fair is more about camaraderie than it is about competition.

While Sunday's annual firefighter's competition held at the Lebanon Area Fair pits firefighters and their fire companies against one another, the atmosphere is more about camaraderie than it is competition.
"They say the fire service is family oriented, and that is the way we treat it," Stephen Stine, deputy chief at Campbelltown Fire Co., said. "It really is like our version of a family reunion."
Stine, who has attended the event since its inception four years ago, was on hand to help with the set-up of the various competitions.
"Competitions like this get you out to meet the other firefighters that are in your county, and it brings everybody closer together," he said.

Firefighting is a family tradition in Stine's family, started by him and his brother, Tim. Tim Stine was killed in the line of duty at a fire that took place at the Lebanon campus of Harrisburg Area Community College in 1990. He was 20 years old at the time of his death.
"My brother and I were the first in our family, and now my son, Michael, is a firefighter who was with Campbelltown, but moved on to another company, and my daughter, Ashley, is a firefighter with the Mount Gretna Fire Co.," Stine said.
Joe Panza Jr., a firefighter with Bellegrove Fire Co., agrees that the event that features competitions such as cone chucking, hose drag and quick dress, which involves firefighters getting dressed out in their gear as quickly as possible, is all about spending time with other firefighters.

"This is an awesome competition where we get to go up against our fellow volunteer firefighters and just have a good time," Panza said.
As with Stine, firefighting is a tradition in Panza's family.
"This is my first year competing in this event, but I've been a firefighter since I was 14 years old," Panza said. "My dad was a firefighter, as well. I guess it's just in the blood."
Patti Kreitzer, who has been with Bunker Hill Fire Co. for 26 years, took part in several of the event's competitions.
"This is a lot of fun, and we do it every year," she said. "I'm in several of the competitions today (Sunday) including cone chucking, hose tug-of-war and the barrel bust."
The barrel bust, which was the last competition of the event, involves two teams of three firefighters who attempt to move a barrel suspended on a line about 14 feet in the air across the opposing team's finish line using only the water coming from their high-pressure hoses.
Kreitzer's father, Richard, is Bunker Hill's fire chief, and that is why she became a firefighter, she said. Now, her teenage daughters, Larissa and Lyndsay Ealy, are both junior firefighters, and they also participated in a few of the competitions, according to Kreitzer.
Palmyra's 911 Rapid Response was the official sponsor of the event for the third year in a row.

"The competition was started by the Kellers, but we took over after the first year," Mark Sallada, owner of 911 Rapid Response, said. "With our business, we have the people, contacts and followers to pull it together, and it is just easier for us to do it."
It takes about 10 or 12 people three to four days to get ready for the event, and everyone who helps put on the show is a volunteer, according to Sallada.
"Every year we have more people who come out to watch, but I don't think we'll have as many this year because it is such a hot day," he explained.
There were about 50 spectators watching approximately eight fire companies from Lebanon, Lancaster and Dauphin counties compete in the event, despite the 95-degree heat and the intense summer sun.
Joan Sallada, Mark's mother and an assistant fire chief with Bellegrove Fire Co., made sure that all the firefighters were taken care of during the event.
"I brought lots of water and towels to keep the firefighters hydrated and cooled down, just like I would at any fire call," she said.
Joan Sallada's care for her fellow firefighters seems to be in keeping with Stine's thoughts on the competition.
"The camaraderie between the local fire stations is what the fire service is all about," Stine said.

I honestly have no words for how amazing mine and my husbands experience was having our wedding at the McCune Mansion. We did not want a typical Utah wedding (which you can also have here still).. we wanted a super elegant, vintage, out of state style wedding. and we got just that and MORE! The McCune Mansion was the first venue we visited and I knew instantly that I wanted it there.. then we toured 12 more venues.. none of them compared. So of course we went with the mansion.. how can you not?!? serious question. first of all, I have to talk about Shawn, he gave us the tour and helped us with our entire wedding planning process, which was over a year. He knew exactly what he was talking about and was clearly an expert, he answered every single question we had before even asking them.. thats skill. lol. I never felt bad or like a bridezilla emailing him a bunch and he was always so gracious and willing to help with each and every call and email during that year. Now the planning went smoothly and the day of the wedding... went EVEN BETTER! The food was spectacular, the bar service was amazing, of course the mansion itself is BEAUTIFUL and shawn.. he bent over backwards to make me and my groom feel unbelievably special, like we were the only people in the world he cared about, he was professional and helped keep the night going strong. I could honestly go on and on about this place but i'll spare you guys the reading.. Please tour this beautiful and professional place you won't regret having your wedding there.
Wonderful place for a wedding. Everything about the experience was outstanding.
Had my wedding ceremony and reception at McCune Mansion, it was absolutely beautiful and stunning. I recommend this venue to anyone and everyone, stateside and otherwise. It captures a magnificent era in U.S. History, which portrays a certain sense of elegance that has been difficult to recapture in the modern-era. You will have an opportunity to work with some fantastic planners, who are able to make the impossible, possible!
What an amazing venue! From the stunning gardens to the timeless ballroom, I couldn't have dreamt up a more magical place to have my wedding. Sean and Monique took care of every detail. To orchestra timing of events with such precision takes people with experience, who actually care about their craft. Very impressed and I would recommend to anyone who will listen.
Get married at McCune - I really can't imagine a better venue. Not only are the grounds and house beautiful, Shawn and Monique ran the event like clockwork. Emily and I were able to enjoy the evening, our guests, and one another. The wedding was beautiful, everything was handled seamlessly and professionally, and we felt completely cared for and important. Special day, special venue. Thank you Shawn, Monique, and your whole team. You made the most important day of our lives amazing.

About Princeton
Former Google CEO Schmidt, Peru President Kuczynski to receive top alumni awards
Princeton University will present its top honors for alumni to Eric Schmidt, executive chairman of Alphabet Inc., and Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, president of Peru.
Schmidt, a member of the Class of 1976, will receive the Woodrow Wilson Award. Kuczynski, who earned a Master in Public Affairs in 1961 from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, will receive the James Madison Medal. They will receive the awards and deliver addresses on campus during Alumni Day activities on Saturday, Feb. 25.
The University bestows the Woodrow Wilson Award annually upon an undergraduate alumnus or alumna whose career embodies the call to duty in Wilson's speech, "Princeton in the Nation's Service." A Princeton graduate and faculty member, Wilson served as president of the University, governor of New Jersey and president of the United States.
The Madison Medal, established by the Association of Princeton Graduate Alumni (APGA), is named for the fourth president of the United States and the person considered to be Princeton's first graduate student. It is presented each year to celebrate an alumnus or alumna of the Graduate School who has had a distinguished career, advanced the cause of graduate education or achieved an outstanding record of public service.
Woodrow Wilson Award winner
At Alphabet, Schmidt is responsible for the external matters of all of the holding company's businesses, including Google Inc., advising their CEOs and leadership on business and policy issues.
"Alphabet — the parent company of Google — has been at the forefront of the Information Age, and as its chairman, Eric Schmidt embraces the idea that society's progress depends on innovative ideas," said Cecilia Rouse, dean of the Wilson School. "Eric has fostered the development of projects that look at old problems in a new light — from using technology to spread revolution or creating safer roads or curing disease. I am so pleased he has been chosen as this year's recipient of the Woodrow Wilson Award. His service and dedication to creating a healthier, safer and more productive planet make him worthy of this award."
Prior to the establishment of Alphabet, Schmidt was the chairman of Google for four years. From 2001 to 2011, Schmidt served as Google's chief executive officer, overseeing the company's technical and business strategy alongside founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page. Under his leadership, Google dramatically scaled its infrastructure and diversified its product offerings while maintaining a strong culture of innovation, growing from a Silicon Valley startup to a global leader in technology.
Previously, Schmidt was chairman and CEO of Novell and chief technology officer at Sun Microsystems, Inc. He also worked on the research staff at Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, Bell Laboratories and Zilog.
Schmidt earned his Ph.D. in computer science from the University of California-Berkeley in 1982 and his B.S.E. in electrical engineering from Princeton in 1976.
Schmidt has served Princeton in numerous ways, including as a trustee from 2004 to 2008. In 2009, he and his wife, Wendy Schmidt, created the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Transformative Technology Fund at Princeton to support the advancement of science and engineering through the development of new technologies.
Schmidt has played a role in developing federal policy related to science and technology as a member of the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. He is a fellow of the National Academy of Engineering and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. The Schmidt Family Foundation was established in 2006 by Wendy Schmidt and Eric Schmidt to address issues of sustainability and the responsible use of natural resources. Schmidt is a trustee of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and is on the board of the Broad Institute and the Mayo Clinic. In 2013, he and Jared Cohen co-authored the New York Times bestselling book, "The New Digital Age: Transforming Nations, Businesses, and Our Lives." In 2014, he published his second bestseller, "How Google Works," which he and Jonathan Rosenberg co-authored with Alan Eagle.
Madison Medal winner
Kuczynski began a five-year term as Peru's president on July 28.
An economist, Kuczynski started his career at the World Bank in the early 1960s. In Peru, has been manager of the Central Reserve Bank, minister of energy and mines, and twice served as minister of economy and finance. He also was chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers.
"Pedro Pablo Kuczynski has made enormous contributions as an economist and statesman," said Sanjeev Kulkarni, dean of the Graduate School. "We're proud to recognize such a distinguished Princetonian with the Madison Medal."
Kuczynski was a private entrepreneur for 25 years, including working with an investment bank in New York. Since 2007, he has been an adviser and partner with the Rohatyn Group, a New York-based company that specializes in fund management in emerging countries. He was president of Advanced Metallurgical Group (AMG) and chair of Ternium, the largest steel company in Latin America. He founded and chaired Agualimpia, an organization that helps implement water and sanitation projects in the poorest areas of Peru.
Kuczynski has written extensively about the economics of Latin America and Peru and has taught at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru and the University of Pittsburgh.
In 1960, Kuczynski graduated from the University of Oxford with a focus on politics, philosophy and economics. Following his studies in England, he received the John Parker Compton Memorial Fellowship in International Relations to study public affairs at Princeton.

Home / Social / TikTok: What You Need To Know As A Marketer
TikTok: What You Need To Know As A Marketer
09/07/20 Written by: Harriet Tuite
If you read my previous blog based around social media and body positivity, you'll know that TikTok is a new guilty pleasure of mine. To be honest, when it first started getting popular I thought it was just a really cringey platform filled with 16 year olds. A rebrand of Chinese lip-syncing app Musical.ly, TikTok was born in 2018 and quickly became a firm favourite with teens. I always thought of the platform as an evolution of the, now defunct, short form video app, Vine. I remember having a meeting in Spring 2019 with some TikTok sales reps who were trying to convince me that their platform was going to be the next big thing in social media advertising. At that time, TikTok was popular, but it hadn't hit the levels that it has today.
Let's take a look at the growth of TikTok as a challenger social media platform.
TikTok launched worldwide in 2018 after their merge with Musical.ly. From Google Trends data for the past 5 years you can see the sudden popularity of the platform in the UK, going from practically any interest to huge peaks. Looking at this data on a 12 monthly basis, you can see that there was a massive spike in searches for the term around March/April time. What happened in March/April 2020? Lockdown! With lockdown grew the boredom of the UK, and therefore the interest in TikTok. According to Campaign, there are around 5 million users of TikTok in the UK, and that data is from February, so that figure has definitely increased since then. You really can't deny the immense popularity of TikTok currently.
It's very important here to say that as a social media marketer, you may look at the increasing stats of TikTok and be inclined to throw all of your money at it before it gets too expensive. But just remember, we have seen this sudden growth in many platforms. It really wasn't that long ago that we were all being told that Vero was going to be the next big platform and was going to take over Instagram with it's no ads approach.
TikTok & Video
The absolute beauty of TikTok is that it is all about short videos. Working in social media, I've been pushing short, vertical video for probably the past two years. You can't deny that video works better than still imagery in the majority of cases on social media, but the issue with that is that videographers can be costly. And if you're not willing to be in the video yourself then you need to pay for a model/actor, the videographer, perhaps the location, any props, and loads more. TikTok took all these costly elements and completely eliminated them.
The majority of videos on TikTok are around 15 seconds, filmed by an individual, in vertical, on their mobile phone. The best feature of TikTok? All of the video editing features. You don't have to be a skilled videographer to create your videos. There are so many easy use features with filters, effects, voice changers, zooms, transitions, so many that the list is nearly endless. This means that you now have 14 year olds making videos that would take a video editor a good few hours to edit, just by dragging and dropping. Groundbreaking.

This ease and low cost means that you really don't have to worry about your content being overly polished, as TikTok has become so popular for being so simple. This is a huge opportunity for brands, influencers and individuals to really take advantage of.
TikTok has not only gained a mass following, but it has also brought with it a new wave of influencers. These influencers aren't your usual influencers. They don't post pictures of themselves with products and tell you how great they are with a #ad. They just … dance, sing, make you laugh. It is very difficult to explain to someone who doesn't use TikTok why the likes of Addison Rae and Loren Gray are so popular, but with around 50 million followers each, you definitely can't deny it. It's also very important to note that these 'influencers' are predominantly under the age of 20 and American, so that is the clear winning demographic.
We've also seen a wave of actual celebrities using the platform. Addison Rae has even recently been collabing with Kourtney Kardashian and Jason Derulo. The platform really is breaking boundaries when it comes to the norms of influencers and celebrities.
Brands are taking advantage of this rise of influencers, having them start viral trends with a certain hashtag or simply tagging in their videos that they are "wearing all @PLT". Again, another huge opportunity is here. The key is not to make it overly branded. TikTok is all about individuals, don't make it overly about your company or people won't find it engaging.
TikTok & Music Charts
Although all social media channels tell you to use video optimised for 'sound off', TikTok have, again being the disrupter, completely gone against this. You really can't use TikTok without sound. When you launch the app, it starts playing out loud straight away, whether you have your phone on silent or not. The whole point of TikTok is to entertain. And it's very difficult to do that without sound. Born from a lip-synching app, a large portion of the videos on TikTok are dances to popular songs. If you've listened to the Top 40 recently, there are a lot of songs in there that seem quite bizarre and not like they would be that popular, but you're like 'sure ok'. Take Rockstar – Roddy Ricch & DaBaby, Say So – Doja Cat and never forget, Savage – Megan Thee Stallion ft. Beyonce. These are prime examples of TikTok making songs popular in the charts.
With this, we have seen a trend of artists producing music purely for the purposes of TikTok. Jason Derulo (who is very popular on TikTok) recently released his song 'Savage Love', featuring a beat made by New Zealand Musician Jawsh 685. The beat had already blown up on TikTok, with dances popping up left, right and centre. With that in mind, Jason Derulo couldn't help but make an actual single out of it and make a fortune. The song went to number 1 on the UK singles chart last week. Very clever move Jason.
The key takeaway from TikTok & Music is that you really have to be clever with your sound. Make it catchy, interesting, relatable or dance-able, you're onto a winner. Anything else and you're looking at a flop.
TikTok Ads
It wouldn't be a blog on TikTok for Marketers without mentioning the actual ads feature. Being brutally honest, as a TikTok user and as a social media marketer, I hate TikTok ads. There is nothing worse than when you're scrolling through your page and end up seeing an ad about something really irrelevant and boring. TikTok isn't made for adverts. They also clearly stand out as non-genuine TikToks, because they are either overly polished or they look like someone is trying too hard to make it look like a genuine TikTok. Either way, they just don't really work for me.
There also doesn't appear to be many restrictions on advertising, like there is with Facebook etc. I have been targeted with a variety of really unacceptable weight loss adverts claiming that intermittent fasting is the way forward, or that this woman lost 2 stone without 'breaking a sweat in the gym'. On a platform aimed at teens, I find this very worrying and am concerned about the wellbeing of the users who could be easily influenced.
What I will say is that if your audience demographic is those Generation Z users, then TikTok ads might really work for you. But you have to try really hard to make it work. The majority of the users on TikTok don't want to be sold to, they're just there for a laugh. This is likely to be the reason why a lot of big brands chose to work with influencers as opposed to run direct adverts.
TikTok – Round Up
So there you have it. My key things to note about TikTok as a marketer, and as a fan. The key thing to remember is that it isn't the same type of platform as Instagram or Facebook, so it really shouldn't be treated in the same way either. To be a success in TikTok, you have to be reactive, creative and fun. You're never going to sell cardboard boxes by showing off your cardboard box on TikTok (unless you're really clever about it).


As you well know, the UK is a thriving place for young fashion talent. We nurture promising designers like nowhere else on this planet, so it's only natural that there's forever a steady stream of new names to add to our list.
Now is a particularly exciting time because setting up your own clothing line has never been easier. Okay, it's still tough, but with the dawn of e-commerce shopping and cult brands rising to the forefront, thanks to social media platforms like Instagram, there's at least one stronger link in the chain: You can get people to love what you're doing before you've even made anything!
Keep reading to see the new British brands we're predicting will blow up on the fashion scene.
Style Notes: If your furry-slide addiction is peaking, then we suggest to bookmark Del Rio's shoes immediately. Beloved of the blogging set and also stocked at MatchesFashion.com, these made-in-Spain, designed-in-London critters are so cool.
Style Notes: Knitwear is any Brit girl's new indulgence, and Blake LDN (designed by Alice Ashby) is made of award-winning stuff. Camille Charrière is a fan of the label's pink sweaters, and we are, too.
Style Notes: We first discovered Laurie Lee's hand-painted leathers at LFW, and we're ashamed to say many an influencer got there before us. Well, these bikers do make for perfect Instagram images, don't they? Shop them at Selfridges now.
Style Notes: From the knotted shirtdress you'll wear all summer to the striped button-down you'll love taking to the office, Co/Mun's alternative tailoring is piquing the interest of many a fashion buyer and editor right now. Avenue32.com has plenty of the brand's stock in right now.
Style Notes: Danse Lente's handbags aren't available yet, but they'll be launching in April and reportedly dropping into Selfridges—so keep your eyes peeled, and decide on a favourite style from the seriously chic range now.
Style Notes: House of Sunny has been quite the startup success story on ASOS Marketplace. The brand's slouchy separates, statement sleeves and simple dresses are so affordable that it'd be rude not to add to cart.
Style Notes: Bruta's loose-fit unisex shirts are treated more like an artist's canvas than a fashion piece—expect unexpected prints, embroidery and detailing that come with a story to tell.
Style Notes: Sequins! Feathers! Pink! Pearls! Frills! Bows! This is unadulterated froth femininity at its most exuberant. You can even buy separate embellished sleeves to place onto items you already own—genius. 16Arlington will soon be launching its own e-comms, so watch this space.
Style Notes: East London–based brand YearOne Collective offers a varied line-up from nerdy anoraks and giant puffers to leather miniskirts and sporty zip-up track tops. And that's exactly the point: It's all about wearing less obvious pieces together, like super-blogger Shini Park, pictured here.

Q: Why can I use If Else syntax and not a ternary operator? Why can I do this?
if (integerList.Direction == "ascending") {
    integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue);
} else{
    integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);
}

But not this?
integerList.Direction == "ascending" ? integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue)
                                     : integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);

It returns the error:
only assignment, call, increment, decrement, await and new object expressions can be used as a statement.

A: Because this code makes a call to a given operation (regardless of the branch) which is in itself a statement, thus allowed,
if (integerList.Direction == "ascending") {
    integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue);
} else{
    integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);
}

Using the ternary operator, however, you end up with an expression, which by itself it is not allowed, as it is considered a no-op, except of course, like the error says, it is a new object expression,
integerList.Direction == "ascending"
    ? integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue)
    : integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);

The result of the operation it is not actually consumed, so the entire OrderBy is wasted.
Try this instead,
var intergersOrdered =
    integerList.Direction == "ascending"
        ? integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue)
        : integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);

which turns the ternary operator into an assignment statement.

A: The ternary operator in C# is an operator not a statement.  You need to use it in a statement with something to receive the return value.
Read this answer by Jon Skeet.

A: Because by definition a ternary operator is an assignment operator, or more accurately a conditional assignment operator. It assigns different values according according to the supplied condition. It doesn't execute statements. While you can definitely unfold any ternary construct into an if-then-else construct, the reverse is not true.

A: While the fact remains that the ternary operator is a conditional assignment operator, you could probably still do this
var values = integerList.Direction == "ascending" ? integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue)
                                     : integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);

A: An easy way to think about the difference between if-else and the ternary operator:

*

*If-else allows you to decide which block of code will be executed.

*The ternary operator helps you decide between two objects or values (of the same type) to use inside a  single statement.

The reason you are getting a compiler error for your ternary operator is because the rules of the language: the Ternary operator returns a value.  But values are used in statements; they are not themselves statements.  Consider:
int x = 1;

// Both these lines are invalid because a string literal is not a complete statement:
"x is an integer";
x < 0 ? "x is Negative" : "x is not Negative";

//Valid:
string intDescription = "x is an integer";
string describeNegative = x < 0 ? "x is Negative" : "x is not Negative";

// Invalid because the ternary operator chooses between values, and Console.WriteLine
// is void:
x < 0 ? Console.WriteLine("x is Negative") : Console.WriteLine("x is not Negative");

// Valid:
Console.WriteLine(x < 0 ? "x is Negative" : "x is not Negative");
// or:
string describeNegative = x < 0 ? "x is Negative" : "x is not Negative";
Console.WriteLine(describeNegative);

Now hopefully you understand the Ternary operator a bit better.  Unfortunately, there's another problem with your code.  Even though this compiles, it doesn't actually do anything:
if (integerList.Direction == "ascending") {
    integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue);
} else{
    integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue);
}

OrderBy creates a new object that is an IOrderedEnumerable<YourIntegerClass> and contains the same contents that Integers did, but sorted.  OrderBy returns this new object and leaves your original container unchanged.  This is a relatively common pattern with the Linq extension methods, although most return IEnumerable objects instead of IOrderedEnumerable.
Instead of only making a copy that you don't do anything with, I'm guessing you want to sort the contents of Integers; to do that, you need to assign that result of the OrderBy back to the Integers object:
if (integerList.Direction == "ascending") {
    //I'm guessing that Integers is a List, so I've added .ToList() as well here:
    integerList.Integers = integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue).ToList();
} else{
    integerList.Integers = integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue).ToList();
}

Because you are choosing between two values (in this case, for assignment to Integers) you can use the ternary operator:
integerList.Integers = integerList.Direction == "ascending"
    ? integerList.Integers.OrderBy(i => i.IntegerValue).ToList()
    : integerList.Integers.OrderByDescending(i => i.IntegerValue).ToList();

Q: C implementation for C++ strings & vector of strings I've some C++ APIs like below:
API1(std::string str, std::vector<std::string> vecofstr);

I want to call this API from a C code. How can i provide a C wrapper for this ?
std::string str
=>

I can probably use char* for std::string

&
std::vector<std::string> vecofstr =>
array of char* for vector of string like

char* arrOfstrings[SIZE];

A: This is what the corresponding C header (and its C++ implementation) could look like:
Declaration
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
#endif
void cAPI1(const char *str, const char * const *vecofstr, size_t vecofstrSize);

Implementation
extern "C" void cAPI1(const char *str, const char * const *vecofstr, size_t vecofstrSize)
{
  API1(str, {vecofstr, vecofstr + vecofstrSize});
}

[Live example]
The above assumes that the C code will use zero-terminated strings for all string arguments. If that is not the case, the parameters of cAPI1 must be modified accordingly (ideally based on what representation of strings is actually used by the C code).

A: 1.api.h
#ifndef API_H_
#define API_H_
#include <vector>
#include <string>

void api1(std::string& str, std::vector<std::string>& vecofstr);

#endif

.2. api.cpp
#include "api.h"
#include <iostream>

void api1(std::string& str, std::vector<std::string>& vecofstr) {
  std::cout << str << std::endl;

  for (size_t i=0; i<vecofstr.size(); i++) {
    std::cout << vecofstr[i] << std::endl;
  }
}

3.wrapper.h
#ifndef WRAPPER_H_
#define WRAPPER_H_

#define SIZE 2

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
  extern void wrapper1(char* p, char* [SIZE]);
#ifdef __cplusplus
};
#endif
#endif

4.wrapper.cpp
#include <string>

#include "wrapper.h"
#include "api.h"

#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

void wrapper1(char* p, char* ps[SIZE]) {
  std::string str(p);
  std::vector<std::string> vecofstr;
  for (size_t idx=0; idx<SIZE; idx++) {
    vecofstr.push_back(ps[idx]);
  }
  api1(str, vecofstr);
}

#ifdef __cplusplus
};
#endif

.5. test.c
#include "wrapper.h"

int main(void)
{
  char* p = "hello world";
  char* ps[] = {"world", "hello"};
  wrapper1(p, ps);
  return 0;
}

.6. compile
gcc -c api.cpp wrapper.cpp
gcc test.c -o test wrapper.o api.o -lstdc++

.7. run
./test
hello world
world

Sense of Relief in Super Kings Camp
Published: 29th March 2014 03:25 AM | Last Updated: 29th March 2014 03:25 AM | A+A A-
By Ashok Venugopal
The Supreme Court's decision to not suspend Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals from IPL 7 has come as a whiff of fresh air to the CSK camp which was a bit tensed on Thursday night as to what would happen on Friday.
The immediate reaction from the CSK camp was a sense of relief and joy. Given the circumstances and hype over the case, it is believed that the board president N Srinivasan is also satisfied with the outcome as most of the suggestions of the board have been accepted by the apex court.
"We (CSK) may have been a bit tensed on Thursday, but we were always confident that we would put across our points succinctly in the arguments and get a positive decision,'' said a top official of Super Kings who is close to Srinivasan.
"We are overall satisfied with outcome as most our suggestions in the reply to the apex court's queries have been accepted,'' added the top official who is also a senior member of the TNCA.
Sources state that the board is not shocked by batting legend Sunil Gavaskar taking over from N Srinivasan or Shivlal Yadav (vice-president) supervising all the non-IPL activities.
"Our president N Srinivasan himself was willing to step aside and let someone head the board till the IPL enquiry was over. Plus, we have nothing against a player of the calibre of Gavaskar and welcome his appointment,'' said a close aide and confidant of Srinivasan.
Yadav, vice-president of the BCCI, had made it clear that he was willing to take over from Srinivasan even before the verdict came out and it was learnt that this did not go down well with some board members.
"Yes. He (Shivlal) is our senior most vice-president and we have no issues at all in him taking care of the non-IPL affairs of the board,'' explained a source.

From November 4, 2016 until January 29, 2017 the Viennese Akademie der bildenden Künste organises (organised) the exhibition Natur auf Abwegen? – Mischwesen, Gnome und Monster (nicht nur) bei Hieronymus Bosch [Nature gone astray? – Hybrids, Gnomes and Monsters (not only) in the work of Hieronymus Bosch]. In the margin of this exhibition a small monograph (clearly intended for the general reader) was published on Bosch's Last Judgement triptych (Vienna), with contributions by four authors.
In the short introduction Julia Nauhaus introduces the Viennese Akademie der bildenden Künste. We learn that today the Gemäldesammlung counts some 1,200 works whereas the Kupferstichkabinett owns some 40,000 drawings, 100,000 graphic works and more than 22,000 artistic photographs.
In Hieronymus Bosch und das Wiener Weltgericht [Hieronymus Bosch and the Vienna Last Judgement] Nils Büttner writes that most Bosch works deal with Christian themes. Because of the diverging size the Last Judgement triptych in Vienna cannot be the triptych that was commissioned by Philip the Fair from Bosch in 1504. In 1659 the triptych was part of the collection of archduke Leopold Wilhelm (who, as the Habsburg Stadholder, resided in Brussels from 1647 till 1656). That the triptych is not a copy becomes clear from the numerous changes in the underdrawing and during the painting process. One of the important changes can be seen in the coat of arms in the lower exterior right panel: the weapon has not been painted although it was planned in the underdrawing (unfortunately not clear enough in order to be identified). The identification of the saint who is represented in the exterior right panel also causes problems because the iconography of Saint Bavo, Saint Hippolyte, Saint Theobaldus and Saint Julianus is very much alike. Büttner rejects the hypothesis that the triptych was commissioned by Hippolyte de Berthoz (Jos Koldeweij's hypothesis, although Koldeweij is not mentioned in the text) because of the donor who was planned in the underdrawing (lower left corner of the central panel) but not painted. Hippolyte de Berthoz had himself painted together with his wife in a triptych that was commissioned from Dirk Bouts and Hugo van der Goes circa 1475. If the donor of the Vienna triptych had been married, he would also have had his wife represented, because such a commission was – among other things – intended to receive less punishment in Purgatory (see further below, though).
In Ein einzigartiges Weltgericht [A Peculiar Last Judgement] Larry Silver points out two unusual aspects of the Vienna triptych. As opposed to the Last Judgement triptychs by Rogier van der Weyden and Hans Memling only a few good souls are directed towards Heaven in Bosch's painting. In the upper left corner of the central panel Heaven has been represented in a very small and vague way. Unusual as well, is the left interior panel, dealing with the arrival of Evil into the world with the Fall of the Rebel Angels and the Fall of Adam and Eve.
Because of the diverging size the Vienna triptych cannot be the painting that was commissioned by Philip the Fair in 1504.
The donor in the underdrawing (lower left of the central panel) that was not painted is represented without his wife and children and so cannot be Hippolyte de Berthoz. The man does not resemble Philip the Fair either and the large fur hat he is wearing was out of fashion circa 1500.
Not later than circa 1495 Bosch began to sign his paintings (Jheronimus bosch). For example his Epiphany triptych (Prado) that can be dated around 1495 in a convincing way. The Vienna triptych has not been signed and thus can be dated before the Epiphany, and before 1495.
According to dendrochronological research the Vienna triptych may have been painted from 1480-1490 on.
The style of Alart du Hameel's Last Judgement engraving (produced in 's-Hertogenbosch) has been influenced by Bosch and Du Hameel was active in 's-Hertogenbosch until 1494.
In many respects Bosch was influenced by illustrations in late gothic manuscripts.
With respect to an early dating of the Vienna triptych the first, the fourth and the sixth argument can hardly be called conclusive. More important are arguments 2 and 5. Argument 5 presupposes Bosch's influence on Du Hameel. But what if Bosch was influenced by Du Hameel, as has been suggested in De Vrij 2012: 319? Regarding argument 2 (the donor figure that was not painted in the final version): would it not be very unusual if a donor had himself represented amidst diabolical tortures and punishments? In other words: if this donor had effectively been painted, he would feel very unwelcome there! Could it not be possible that Bosch used an 'old' panel that was intended for another commission that was cancelled for an unknown reason? That would explain why the donor's hat was out of fashion circa 1500 and it does not contradict the dendrochronological data. Of course, in that case the unpainted donor was not Hippolyte de Berthoz (the hypothetical commissioner of the Vienna triptych), which makes Pokorny's and Büttner's rejection of Koldeweij's hypothesis irrelevant. That the Vienna triptych has not been signed obviously remains a fact but it can hardly be called a convincing argument either (the Garden of Delights also lacks a signature). How we have to interpret the dating that is used elsewhere throughout the book ('started circa 1490, completed circa 1505'), remains a mystery.
In a separate short chapter the Vienna Hellship drawing is introduced. The book has some nice and clear illustrations. The suggestion that the sign on the giant knife in the central panel may be read as a 'B' or as an 'M' that stands for miserere (see the note accompanying illustration 30 on page 23) can duly be ignored: meanwhile, thanks to archival research by Lucas van Dijck (published in 2016) we know that this sign is a round 'M' functioning as the logo of the 's-Hertogenbosch producer of knives Anthonius Jonckers. The Bosch Research and Conservation Project was denied access to the Vienna triptych but in this book we read nothing about the Akademie's own research, apart from what is communicated about the coat of arms in the lower right exterior panel. That the (concise) bibliography does mention the highly irrelevant book by Cees Nooteboom but forgets to refer to Dirk Bax's (English-written!) work of reference on the Vienna triptych (Hieronymus Bosch and Lucas Cranach – Two Last Judgement triptychs, 1983) is incomprehensible. An English version of the book reviewed here will be (has been) published in January 2017.

Around the Pier: Scripps Postdoctoral Scholar Wins Award Honoring Scripps Legacy
Katie Barott, a postdoctoral scholar at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, has been honored for her work conducted at Scripps and around the world with a prestigious award named after a successful Scripps marine physiologist.
Barott attended the American Physiological Society's (APS) Intersociety Meeting in San Diego on October 5-8. There she submitted her project, "Cellular Mechanisms by Which Coral Cells Can Promote Photosynthesis by Their Symbiotic Algae," and was awarded the Comparative and Evolutionary Physiology Section Scholander Award, named after the late Per Scholander.
Scripps marine physiologist Per Scholander was a pioneer in documenting the unusual anatomy of sea lion and seal lungs, and became the director of the Physiological Research Laboratory at Scripps in the 1960s.
"It is a real honor to be selected for this award," Barott said, "especially given Scholander's connection with Scripps."
Barott said she was amazed to have her project compared to the fundamental marine physiology research conducted by Scholander, as she strives to use his methodology and ambition in her own research.
"I recently read his autobiography," said Barott. "His intense curiosity about the natural world and innovative approach to answering scientific questions are two things I aspire to bring to my own research."
The APS Intersociety Meeting, described as an event to "draw comparative and evolutionary physiologists from around the world to present and discuss recent advances in animal physiology," grants this award to an outstanding young researcher who presents cutting edge work at the meeting.
"It is one of the most prestigious awards for young scientists in our field," said Martin Tresguerres, a Scripps marine biologist and Barott's postdoctoral advisor.
Barott has been working for two years on understanding how corals interact with their algal symbionts and how that affects their ability to survive on the reef.
In this time, she received an opportunity to spend four months in Monaco, furthering her work at the Centre Scientifique de Monaco with the world's leaders in coral physiology, Ph.D.s Alex Venn and Sylvie Tambutte.
"I learned a great deal during my time there," said Barott. "It was also fun to work in a place so closely affiliated with the great ocean explorer Jacques Cousteau. I don't know if Cousteau and Scholander ever interacted, but they were of the same era and both studied diving physiology–Cousteau as the inventor of SCUBA diving and Scholander as a pioneer in the physiology of diving marine mammals."
With an ongoing love for the sea, Barott has used her passion to drive her to academic achievements. In order to conduct research at Scripps, she received the National Science Foundation (NSF) postdoctoral fellowship, and is currently working towards her postdoc.
"Growing up in Santa Barbara, I have always been happiest when I'm out on the water," said Barott. "It wasn't until I was in college that I realized I could make a career of studying the ocean, and I haven't looked back since!"
Receiving a fellowship and this award are only a few of Barott's many academic achievements. She received two undergraduate degrees, one in zoology and one in biochemistry and molecular biology, from Michigan State University and continued on to receive her Ph.D. in biology from San Diego State University and UC San Diego's Joint Doctoral Program, where she worked in the lab of microbial ecologist Forest Rohwer of SDSU.
"Since my background is in microbiology and ecology, it was really useful for me to see all of the great work being done in comparative physiology at this meeting," said Barott.

Lafourche Parish President Jimmy Cantrelle has made his second round of nominations for the parish administrator and finance director positions.
Cantrelle nominated former Lockport Police Chief Ernest Boudreaux Sr. to serve as parish administrator. He nominated Brent Abadie to serve as finance director.
The Parish Council must vote on the nominations within 30 days, placing the first vote by July 21. The next council meetings are scheduled for July 10 and July 24.
An email from parish officials says the nominations will be placed on the next council agenda. Six votes from the council are needed to ratify the nominations.
Both positions have been vacant since February when their former occupants resigned in the same week.
"I think they're pretty good people," Cantrelle said, adding he's uncertain about the council's support.
"All they want to do is do things to hurt the people of Lafourche Parish instead of work with me," Cantrelle said.
He nominated two others for those positions in April, both voted down by the Parish Council.
His first nomination for finance director, Lionel Lagarde Jr., was serving as interim director until his nomination was rejected by a 4-2 vote during a special meeting.
"Last time I nominated a guy who was, to me, had a real good financial background. He was super qualified and could have done the job, yet the council turned him down," Cantrelle said.
Former Councilman Rodney Doucet was Cantrelle's first nominee for parish administrator. He was rejected by a 7-2 vote.
Boudreaux served as the Lockport Police Chief from 1986-1997. He ran for the office again in 2017, losing to David Harrelson Jr. He has also run unsuccessfully for sheriff, councilman and justice of the peace in Lafourche Parish and city marshal in Terrebonne Parish.
Project manager Tommy Lasseigne has been serving as interim parish administrator since Leif Haas resigned.
Cantrelle nominated Abadie for director of homeland security last year before hiring him on as risk manager when the council voted down the nomination.
The council recently supported Abadie's appointment to an economic development committee organized by Council Chairwoman Luci Sposito, but voted down his appointment to a charter review committee twice.
Currently, there is no interim finance manager. The former Finance Director Carrel Hymel has since been hired back in a civil service position. No one else applied for that position, Cantrelle said.
Abadie has a legal background and experience in law enforcement with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office and the Gretna Police Department.
"Mr. Abadie, he's real good at just about everything," Cantrelle said.
