Growing Business Awards 2010: People and Performance shortlist
The People and Performance Award at our Real Business/CBI Growing Business Awards recognises companies introducing modern people management practices to transform commercial performance. Many SMEs live a hand-to-mouth existence when it comes to people management and performance management; the day-to-day focus is on getting the job done. However, increasing numbers of smaller businesses do seem to realise that time spent on top-notch people management can transform commercial fortunes.
Past winners of this award include Scottish water firm Business Stream and training consultancy BEcause. This year, the shortlist ranges from engineering to enzymes to IT. It's an extraordinary group of businesses that can, as you'll see below, make a clear link between investment in people and commercial outcome.
This is the first of our in-depth looks at this year's Growing Business Awards shortlists. Congratulations to this group. Next week, we'll be bringing you more.
Festo is a privately owned manufacturing and engineering firm established in the UK in 1968. This is a really inspirational first company on our shortlists. The company imports and sells pneumatic/fluid power and technology based products, as well as providing training and consultancy services. Festo has grown market share in a market that has declined significantly in recent years, through an incredible coaching culture. Testament to its success is the high percentage of staff that have served with the firm for more than 20 years. The financials don't look bad either: the latest publicly available figures show £500,000-plus profits on a £22m turnover.
Originally an MBO from Grand Met, Biocatalysts is an £5m-turnover Industrial Biotechnology Company that manufactures enzymes primarily for the food processing industry and over 90 per cent of business is exported globally. The Welsh business has an innovative Pay and Reward process that is linked to rewarding performance, culture and behaviours. Interestingly, the company also holds its own, internal "Innovation Awards Ceremony". This year (to September 2010) the company is looking at 25 per cent sales growth and a 20 per cent hike in profits.
Higgidy is one of the UK's most innovative food businesses, running just shy of £10m turnover and set to be the largest employer in Shoreham on Sea. Entrepreneur-founded, the business sells its pies and quiches into many multiples and is developing a range of niche, branded meals for the multiples. Unlike many in the food sector, it relies totally on full-time labour and pays well above the minimum wage. This is definitely a food brand to watch! Aims to be a £30m business in five years.
Our next candidate has its own "chief happiness officer", but don't cringe; IT Lab is a very serious business making £500k profits on a £5m turnover. The fast-growing firm has offices in the UK, New Zealand and South Africa. IT Lab's mission is to transform IT from a drudging cost into a genuine competitive advantage for all clients. The company has developed its own "service obsession" programme, part of which offers clients 24/7 IT infrastructure monitoring.
Originally an MBO, CBS Butler is a £35m-turnover, £600k-net profits multi-award winning company specialising in technical appointments for both the UK and overseas employment markets. Seventy per cent of business is with bluechip or major companies affording very high levels of customer loyalty with an average tenure of key accounts six years plus. In 2010, the Recruiter Magazine recognised CBSbutler as the 'Best Technical Recruitment Agency' and 'Agency of the Year', together with being highly commended for 'Best Customer Service' and 'Best Employer'. Notably, for these awards, the business has a very innovative "Good boss" programme designed to improve management performance.

For practice with Ruby and Rspec, I've been working through some Project Euler problems. One of my favorites so far is #9, which asks us to find the one Pythagorean triplet for which a + b + c == 1000. Here is the GitHub repo with my solution for you to look at while you read long, if you're into that.
Disclaimer: I'm no math wiz. This exercise is more about using tests well and writing good Ruby code rather than discovering an efficient algorithm to figure out which numbers to check. It's probably pretty inefficient to use nested loops from 2 to 1000 for this problem.
Having done 8 of these types of problems before, I've come to realize that you're going to be writing two general types of methods: "checkers" and "doers" (I just made this distinction up).
Obviously we're going to need to know if a given triangle (defined by 2 of its sides), makes a Pythagorean triplet. This method calculates c and then checks to make sure it's a whole number using the modulus operator.
Does this method work? Old Sam would have put in a binding.pry and played around, but I wanted to be more methodical and test-driven. But I wanted to only use tests when it made sense (as per DHH's recent blog posts on the subject). Here was, I think, a great place where a test would make my life easier.
And both tests pass, so that's cool.
If we were to categorize these 4 methods into "checkers" and "doers", I'd say the first 3 are checkers and find_the_triplet is a doer.
This works fine, but as you can see I need to re-calculate c, the third side of the triangle, three separate times. This is not DRY at all.
That's more like it. Now I can create instances of triangles, using just two of its sides, and use an instance variable to pass the value of c around. Furthermore, I can define semantic methods like qualifies? that clearly state the given qualifications required.
Sweet. Look how semantic that is! "If this triangle qualifies, return this triangle's product" indeed!
But there's still plenty to be desired of this code. It's my natural instinct, thanks to my C++ background, to use nested while loops for these types of problems. How could we use something more Ruby-like?
What about upto instead of while?
Better! We eliminated the a and b initializing lines and the + 1 lines.
To make this even more Ruby-like we can't have the method short-circuit out with the return @this_triangle.product line.
The argument against this practice is that having returns spread out within your methods makes it difficult to understand what they do, which I more or less buy in to at this point.
However this was an issue I ran into frequently when working on Euler problems.
One solution would be to assign product = @this_triangle.product and then return product at the end of the method, but this isn't ideal because we'd have to go all the way through both nested loops even if we found what we were looking for early on.
I would naturally go to the break keyword here, but since we're in nested loops, we'd need two breaks.
We're no longer short-circuiting with return in the middle of the method, but the two breaks are both inefficient and repetitive. Hm. Let's Google.
Googling "ruby break nested loops" led me to this Stack Overflow question, which suggested Ruby's catch and throw keywords. I'd never heard of catch or throw but the example was pretty close to exactly what I envisioning for a solution.
We have a catch up top and a throw within the nested loops. When the throw line is executed, Ruby breaks out of the catch block. It's pretty much just what we needed.
throw :found_it, @this_triangle.product if @this_triangle.qualifies?
Our tests pass and we're no longer short circuiting. I like this method enough that I pushed it up in a separate branch called throw_catch, but it's still not quite right.
The catch and throw solution isn't much better semantically than short circuiting, as it's a little tricky to tell what's going to be returned. Plus, I have the feeling there must be a way to use Ruby's higher lever iterators here.
detect (and find) returns the first instance where the block inside of it is true.
So let's start with the outer detect. It starts with a = 2 and then runs through its block again and again until its block evalutes to true or it has reached the end of the range. Of course this outer detect's block is another detect loop.
No triangles with an a of 2 qualifies, so the inner detect returns nil 998 times. Thus, in the first iteration of the outer loop, its block is never evaluated to true. So it moves on to a = 3 and so on.
Finally, when we get to a = 200, then iterates through the inner detect until b = 375, the inner loop will return true, and thus the outer loop will evalute to true as well. At this point we will break out of the outer detect with @this_triangle set to the qualifying triangle. We then call .product on it to return a*b*c, as the problem requests.


How much hair you have on your head in a given square inch, and how thick it is, has a large effect on how your hair looks. A hair restoration surgeon knows this and will spend a lot of time determining your hair density. The average hair density of the human scalp is about 2,200 per square inch. Caucasians have the highest hair density, while African Americans and Asians have lower hair density. One thing a hair restoration surgeon pays close attention to are density and overall area of donor hair (normally at the back of the scalp). The hair restoration surgeon knows that there are a finite number of hair follicles that can be removed for placement in the recipient area.
In those with large areas of hair loss in the front and the crown, the hair restoration surgeon must work to achieve a balance between how much to remove in the donor area with how much that can be added in the recipient area, while achieving the most natural look. Once your hair restoration surgeon has determined what the donor availability is, expect that he or she will have a long conversation with you about how many hair follicles are available for transplant, where they will be most effective and how to achieve the most natural look.

NYPD Breaks Child's Leg for Filming, Assaults Mom
Cops break a child's leg with a kick to the shin and move on to sexually assault his mother.
One morning, last January, NYPD from the 63rd precinct, showed up at Krystle Silvera's home looking for her ex-boyfriend for violating an order of protection. But protecting is not how they responded to her family.
Her cancer-stricken mother answered the door, confused by what they were asking and why they were there. Silvera's 10-year-old son, Courtney, fascinated by the officers of his own career aspirations, grabbed his mother's cell phone to record the questioning.
That's when the real commotion began.
The cops apparently didn't enjoy being filmed so they kicked Courtney in the shin. Silvera was upstairs getting her young daughter ready for school but flew downstairs when she heard Courtney screaming out:
'You can't do that! You're hurting me! Don't hit me!'
As soon as she came down to meet the situation, a cop pulled her out of her home into the cold, even though she was dressed in underclothes. While restraining her, her breast came out of her bra revealing a pierced nipple.
Silvera said:
The officer flicked the piercing, he flicked the ring up with his finger on my right breast. He said, 'Is this what mothers look like these days?
Is that what cops look like these days?
My neighbors saw me naked. It was degrading. I can deal with the embarrassment of what (the police) did to me in front of my neighbors, but the hardest thing is explaining to my kids that not all police are bad.
She allegedly struggled with the officers when they tried to restrain her, resulting in her getting charged with assault, arrested, and released two days later on $1500. But, why did they pull her from her home to begin with? She is said to have pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct.
But the fiasco didn't end. When she returned, her son was struggling with a black and blue, swollen leg. After he was taken to Kings County Medical Center, X-rays revealed a fractured leg.
The family's lawyer, Anthony Ofodile, said:
I've seen a lot of police brutality cases, but nothing as low as this, kicking a 10-year-old boy.
Amazingly, Courtney's aspirations for law enforcement have not been dampened by the experience – it appears his determination has only increased:
I told my mom being a detective would be cool. I want to be a better detective than the one who did this.
In regards to her son, and an officer's behavior with her, she is seeking unspecified amounts in a lawsuit that will focus on civil rights violations. The Internal Affairs Bureau has opened an investigation based on the allegations.

Clemson, SC – Simply by washing cars for three and half hours on Wednesday afternoon, the Clemson Men's Soccer raised close to $3,500 dollars to be put towards the Red Cross Disaster Relief Effort that is taking place due to the terrorist tragedies that occurred early last week.
The car wash, which took place in the parking lot of Papa John's Pizza on College Avenue, started at 3:00 in the afternoon and the number of people that gave money to the cause were too numerous to even count. The car wash was free of charge and all of the money was raised through donations from people in the Clemson community.

The U.S. Council of Economic Advisers just released a fascinating report about Millennials, packed with statistics about their demographics and economic prospects. It charts a lot of differences between Gen X and Millennials, but there's one statistic that reveals a true generation gap.
What you can see in this simple pie chart comparison, above, is the enormous shift in the U.S. population that took place between the days when Gen Xers were kids and today. In 1980, the year that The Empire Strikes Back came out, 78% percent of 15 to 34 year-olds identified as white. In 2012, just 32 years later, only 58% identify themselves as white.
This doesn't just reflect a change in the size of the white population. It also means that white Millennials are much more likely to know and have friends who are people of color. Millennials live in a U.S. where it's harder for white people to live in a place where they never meet someone with a different racial background than themselves. (Of course they still can and do, but it's just pragmatically more difficult.) Put simply, it's no longer easy to claim whites are the "norm." Increasingly, they're just part of the mix.
There are other differences between Gen X and Millennials detailed in the report, but none are this radical. Millennials tend to value extended families slightly more than their elders, and stay in jobs for longer. They are also looking at more difficult economic prospects than Gen X did — which is particularly disturbing, given that the 1990s were full of rhetoric about the "downward mobility" of Gen X. Millennials are basically continuing a trend that began in the late twentieth century, when the U.S. middle class began to shrink.
It's possible that this demographic shift in race and ethnic groups may represent the biggest gap between Millennials and previous U.S. generations. And it may account for some of the conflicts that are beginning to take shape between 20 and 30-somethings and people who are older.

BOOK REVIEW: In this pair of novellas, an acclaimed British writer gives up his profession and sets out to create a kind of portraiture in prose.
Jasper Gwyn, the acclaimed novelist at the center of Alessandro Baricco's "Mr. Gwyn" (McSweeney's, 258 pages, $22), seems at first to be a familiar character: the artist in the midst of a crisis of faith. He's the author of a number of critically successful novels, and yet as the book opens, some sense of disquiet inspires him to publicly forsake his career. As Gwyn seeks a new vocation, the narrative begins to elude easy categorization. "Mr. Gwyn" contains a pair of novellas, "Mr. Gwyn" and "Three Times at Dawn." They are related, but revealing the nature of that relation would spoil a precisely structured work of fiction, and one that offers up much to consider on the topics of identity as it is perceived and lived.
The narration of "Mr. Gwyn" is charmingly omniscient, leaping from Gwyn's thoughts to observations on his daily activity to the perspectives of other characters — notably, Rebecca, the young woman who becomes his assistant. But for all of that, the narrator is more selective about certain details: it's via dialogue with Tom that certain important details of Gwyn's life emerge. It's a neat bait-and-switch, and it links perfectly with the book's themes of perspective and identity. Gwyn's own crisis raises a lasting question: How does one live one's life in the absence of that which has given that life meaning? The fictional portraits that he is commissioned to create raise questions of identity and perspective and, on a more mundane level, the perennial debate over art as a luxury good. In "Three Times at Dawn," those questions of identity and perspective are heightened, as variations on a particular scene play out, the danger and tension gradually ratcheting upward.
The development of Rebecca, who comes to occupy a central role in the book, is sometimes problematic. When Gwyn and the reader first encounter her, she is described as "a fat, rather elegant, girl," and those two surface-level qualities seem to define her initially. As the book progresses and more of her inner life is revealed, her body and style become less critical; that said, in a novel this focused on the work it takes to reveal someone's inner qualities, this approach seems confusing. Unless Baricco intended for the reader's changing perception of Rebecca to mirror Gwyn's approach to creating his portraits — but even in this case, it seems like a less-than-subtle echo of something described in these pages as close to sublime.
Baricco does succeed in making Gwyn's work, both his fiction and his portraits, believable without summarizing too much of it. And the novel's ability to focus on a very particular region of time, or expand out to cover months in a single paragraph, is laudable. While certain aspects of "Mr. Gwyn" don't entirely click, the novel's shifting perspectives and impressive handling of ambiguity make it an entirely beguiling read: a cerebral mystery contained with a tale of artistic struggle.

The technique of the parameter calculations for the porous structure generator from experimental images to synthesize the porous phantoms is presented. The phantoms generated by the found parameters have geometric characteristics similar to the original images, which makes it possible to use such phantoms as augmentation of training dataset for the segmentation of experimental images using machine learning methods.

Cook for 45-50 mins until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is starting to crisp up. Flash under a hot grill if you like your bacon really crisp. Flash under a hot grill if you like your bacon �... Bacon Brown Sugar Garlic Chicken is a recipe we�ve actually been making at home for years but I never thought to post because it is so closely related to this Slow Cooker Bacon Garlic Pork Loin and Brown Sugar Garlic Pork.
Chicken thighs are cooked right in the skillet: first, they are pan-fried skin-side down to get that nice brown color on the outside, then you simmer them in a lemon-chicken broth with bacon for about 20 minutes until they are completely done and cooked.
To make them, you have to channel your inner sword master and separate the thighbone from the rest of the chicken meat. The result is a perfect canvas for adding lots of fillings, like this pork lover's trio of cream cheese, bacon and sausage.

Nora Roberts sues Brazilian author, cites 'multi-plagiarism'

Hillel Italie, The Associated Press Published 3:33 p.m. ET April 24, 2019
NEW YORK — Best-selling novelist Nora Roberts is suing a Brazilian writer for copyright infringement, alleging that Cristiane Serruya has committed "multi-plagiarism" on a "rare and scandalous" level.
In papers filed Wednesday morning in Rio de Janeiro, where Serruya lives, Roberts called Serruya's romance books "a literary patchwork, piecing together phrases whose form portrays emotions practically identical to those expressed in the plaintiff's books." Citing Brazilian law, Roberts is asking for damages at 3,000 times the value of the highest sale price for any Serruya work mentioned in the lawsuit.
"If you plagiarize, I will come for you," Roberts told The Associated Press during a recent telephone interview. "If you take my work, you will pay for it and I will do my best to see you don't write again."
Roberts added that she would donate any damages from the lawsuit to a literacy program in Brazil.
An Associated Press reporter who went to the building where Serruya lives in Rio de Janeiro was not received by the author. Messages sent by email and Facebook message were not immediately returned.
Lawsuit: Serruya's novels, all apparently self-published, include the series "Shades of Trust," "Shades of Love" and "Ever More." The court papers cite six Serruya books for including lifted passages: "Royal Love," "Royal Affair," "Unbroken Love," "Hot Winter," "Forever More" and "From the Baroness's Diary." The lawsuit alleges Serruya copied passages from Roberts' "Unfinished Business," "River Ends" and "Whiskey Beach" and includes examples of close similarities between their books. Roberts' suit alleges that Serruya has copied passages from dozens of other authors too.
Speaking to the AP, Roberts also criticized Amazon.com for not being more vigilant about the books sold on its site. Roberts and authors have complained that Amazon's Kindle Unlimited e-book subscription program, for which royalties are based on how many pages are read the first time the customer reads them, is an incentive for unscrupulous writers to quickly throw together material from other sources.
"Amazon didn't find any of this," Roberts said of Serruya's books, noting that she had been tipped off by readers and fellow writers. "And that strikes me as a problem."
As of earlier this week, most of Serruya's work had been removed from Amazon, although many books remained available on Barnes & Noble.com, Google Play and elsewhere. In a recent statement to the AP, Amazon said that it takes "violations of laws and proprietary rights very seriously."
"We use a combination of teams of investigators and automated technology to prevent and catch the vast majority of bad actors who attempt to violate our policies before they publish," the statement reads. "In the rare instance where one gets through, we investigate and remove violating books. Additionally, all Kindle product pages contain a link for anyone to flag suspicious titles and the team investigates all titles that are flagged."
Allegations: Serruya has faced allegations from several other writers and even inspired the Twitter hashtag #CopyPasteCris. In February, author Courtney Milan titled a blog posting "Cristiane Serruya is a copyright infringer, a plagiarist, and an idiot," and cited numerous passages from Serruya's "Royal Love" that closely resembled Milan's "The Duchess War." Serruya apologized on her Twitter account and called allegations she had plagiarized "distressing." She has since left Twitter, and the Romance Writers of America has withdrawn "Royal Love" from consideration for the RITA award for best fiction. (The prize is named for the RWA's first president, Rita Clay Estrada).
Allegations that Serruya copied from Roberts emerged around the same time. In correspondence shared by Roberts with the AP, Serruya emailed Roberts' publicist, Laura Reeth, insisting she would "never intentionally plagiarize anyone" and blaming part of the problem on ghost writers.
"I made a mistake," she wrote in February. "I was fooled by some 'mentors' and 'coachers' who told me that 'More, more, more, fast, fast, fast.'"
In an email back to Serruya, Roberts demanded that she "immediately, unambiguously, acknowledge — without excuses" her "unauthorized taking" and "immediately and permanently remove" every novel in question. Roberts told the AP that she decided to sue after Serruya failed to respond.
Roberts is one of the world's most popular and prolific authors, with hundreds of millions of copies sold worldwide. She was initially known for romance books but also writes mainstream fiction and publishes crime novels under the penname J.D. Robb. On her blog, Roberts has repeatedly attacked Serruya and strongly hinted that she would sue.
"She's a blood leech sucking on the body of the writing profession," Roberts wrote last weekend. "Arranging for a truckload of salt to dispense with her has been taking up a lot of my time, energies, sanity. Hopefully, once that's in place the frustrating and infuriating distraction of her will fade, at least a bit."
On her web site (www.crisserruya.com), Serruya is described as a late bloomer, having worked as a lawyer for more than 20 years before she "decided to give writing a go."
"And — amazingly — it was just the piece that was missing from the puzzle of her life," her biography reads. "Now that she's hooked, she can't free herself — and doesn't want to be freed."
Roberts has taken legal action before. In 1997, she sued the popular romance writer Janet Dailey. Dailey, saying she was under "immense stress" because of her husband's health problems, acknowledged that her novels "Aspen Gold" and "Notorious" included ideas and passages from Roberts' books. The case was settled out of court and Roberts donated the damages awarded to Literacy Volunteers of America, now ProLiteracy.

More than 800 high school-aged teens, adult leaders and volunteers spent eight hours of their Sunday getting excited about and experiencing the Catholic faith with their peers.
During the eight-hour event called Rally at Bishop O'Connell High School in Arlington Oct. 21, the teens attended workshops on topics relevant to their demographic, including "God and Science: Where Does the Evidence Lead?", "When a Friend Says 'I'm Pregnant,'" "Digital Loneliness: How Social Media Is Hijacking Our Lives," and many more.
The teens also attended Mass and Eucharistic adoration, played games on outdoor rides and inflatables, and saw priests and diocesan seminarians host "Extravaganza!" — a goofy talent, joke and game show all in one.
For the first time in Rally history, Bishop Michael F. Burbidge held a listening session following Mass in response to Pope Francis' call to all bishops to listen to youths to coincide with the Synod on Young People, the Faith, and Vocational Discernment taking place in Rome.
Bishop Burbidge asked the teens what brings them the most joy about being Catholic and what they find to be the greatest challenges, how they think we can reach more people in the Catholic faith, who had the greatest influence on their personal faith lives, and more.
"I've learned a lot more about the human body," Jerome said.
"I didn't realize how sacred the body was until now," his brother, Jeremy, agreed.
During his homily, Bishop Burbidge told the teens representing nearly 50 parishes that this weekend's Gospel highlights three instructions for us: surrender, suffer and serve.
"This was the most culturally diverse Rally that we have had," said Kevin Bohli, director of the Office of Youth, Campus, and Young Adults, which sponsored the event. "We reached out to all of the various cultural communities in an attempt to make Rally a better representation of the diversity of our diocese. Hopefully, we can build upon this success and design our events to be more appealing to young people of many different cultural backgrounds.
Bohli said he walked into the auditorium behind two apprehensive young girls at the beginning of Rally.
"As they began to experience the environment that we worked hard to build, the one young lady turned to the other and said, 'This is cool.' My goal is to create the best environment possible for the Lord to speak into the heart of each participant at Rally," Bohli said.
The listening session with Bishop Burbidge helped all of the adults in the room have a better understanding of what teenage Catholics are looking for from their church, he said.
"This is especially important as the universal church is asking these same questions at the synod in Rome," Bohli said.

It tells you something of Andy Farrell that those who speak most about the Irish defence coach are the players and the man who talks least about him is Farrell.
Even before last Saturday's win, the appointment of the former England assistant was lauded one of the best by the IRFU. Farrell's reputation preceded him.
England's home World Cup collapse was devastating. But the straight-talking former Wigan player emerged from the ashes respect intact.
Although Farrell took flak after Wales and Scotland, Twickenham was a triumph with the coach's influence at its most visible.
"Andy Farrell gives us all the tools during the week and we just need to go out there and perform for him," said CJ Stander before the final game.
After the England match Farrell's name emerged again, this time from outhalf Johnny Sexton, highlighting what everyone had witnessed; an England team in full spate for eight intense minutes after half-time with Ireland holding solid.
Having forged a reputation with Saracens and England, Farrell was appointed Ireland's defence coach in January 2016 but did not take up the job until June following a short-term role with Munster.
From the outset his detail in defending has dovetailed perfectly with the thinking of Joe Schmidt. Convinced about the quality of tackling, perfecting the right technique and performing it with an aggressive, offensive tempo, Farrell has fortified Ireland's defence with belief.
Much of what he has achieved was built on what Les Kiss had done before and, like Kiss, his thinking is influenced by Rugby League. But Farrell also arrived with a big personality and a playing record of achievement in two codes that also commanded regard.
A keystone with Ireland is for the defensive line to have width and for players to advance in a straight line or square so they can defend both ways and tackle with the body rather than an inside arm. The line speed is also important. It is speed with alignment.
In the tackle he encourages players to visualise the target area of the opposing player a yard behind his body. In other words aim through the opposing player. "Don't just tickle him," he says.
Much of Ireland's match winning defensive play against England took place in the second half, where Eddie Jones' side claimed 66 per cent of possession and played in Ireland's half of the pitch 71 per cent of the time.
In all Ireland were forced into making 205 tackles with a 91 per cent completion rate with England performing 152 tackles for an 88 per cent completion.
But perhaps more than numbers and match stats, Farrell has front loaded Ireland with conviction and trust in a system welded together by agreed personal and collective responsibilities.
And because of his strong leadership and commitment to what he's doing, Irish players have not struggled to follow.
Fullback Rob Kearney and right wing Keith Earls both had eye-catching defensive games with outside centre Garry Ringrose cleverly stripping the ball twice from English players, one of them from lock George Kruis.
In the forwards CJ Stander made 11 tackles, Tadhg Furlong 14 tackles. Lock James Ryan landed 13 tackles with Ulster's Ian Henderson hitting English players 15 times. Flanker Dan Leavy continued to carve a reputation and grossed 16 tackles.
They knew what they had to do. They knew how to do it. They went out and did it. It was no wonder Sexton was name-checking the one time Great Britain rugby league captain.

Q: Combine 2 projects- Main iOS app and Watchkit pp I am creating a seperate WatchKit application for an existing iOS application. The Watchkit app and the main app are 2 different Xcode projects.The problem is that I have to integrate this Watchkit app into the main app. I have seen solutions which tell me to work using Xcode Workspace. But I am not sure whether both the parent app and the watchkit app should be created using workspace or just the watchkit app. My problem is that I cannot modify the main app as it is already in the App store.

A: This question contains a false premise. The only way to distribute a WatchOS app is by embedding it in its partner iOS application, as an additional target, with a paired WatchKit App and WatchKit App Extension. This is true for both WatchKit 1 apps (which can only run on Apple Watches still running WatchOS 1) and WatchKit 2 apps.
There is no barrier to altering an existing app in the app store—you simply need to create a new build of the iOS app, with the additional targets in it, and then submit this to App Store review in the usual fashion.
Finally, if for some reason you do not have access to the source code of the original iPhone application, then it is not possible to release an Apple Watch app that will partner with the app.

Mark Kelly would consider meeting the family of Jared Loughner, the man accused of opening fire in Tucson last week and shooting Kelly's wife, Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.
In his first televised interview since the shooting, Kelly told ABC's Diane Sawyer that he doesn't think Loughner's parents are at fault for their son's decision to carry out a mass shooting.
A father himself, Kelly understands the love a parent has for one's child.
Kelly's full interview is set to air Tuesday during a special edition of 20/20.


In 2013, the project team was invited to provide a case study on the ecological enhancement activity at Shaldon for the forthcoming Water Framework Directive Mitigation Measures Manual, demonstrating a direct policy application of our research findings. We were also invited to participate in the Joint DEFRA-Environment Agency Flood Risk R&D workshop on 'Working with Natural Processes'.
Our collaborative work with the Environment Agency resulting from this research, which led to the development of new guidance for ecological enhancement of hard coastal structures, was awarded with an 'Environment Agency Evidence award' for excellence in working externally. The panel was formed by the Chief Executive of the EA alongside representatives from Defra, the British Geological Society and Natural England.
Our involvement with the design and testing of ecological habitat enhancements as part of the Environment Agency's Shaldon and Ringmore Tidal Defence Scheme has also been rewarded, with the overall scheme winning an Environment Agency Project Excellence Award for 'Exemplar Safety, Health and Environment Performance'. Only four national awards of this level are awarded each year, and judges were particularly impressed with the work to create niche habitats in the flood walls.
Larissa Naylor and Martin Coombes were invited to present the paper 'Reconceptualising the role of organisms in the erosion of rock coasts' (produced in collaboration with Heather Viles) at the 42nd Annual Binghamton Geomorphology Symposium in Mobile, Alabama USA.
Dr Coombes presented the paper at the conference (with an audio introduction from Dr Naylor), which included an excellent field trip around Mobile Bay and Dauphin Island (still recovering from Hurricane Katrina, see photo), and was attended by more than 50 biogeomorphologists and ecologists interested in the interactions between organisms and the physical environment. The presentation included data collected during the 'coastal defences and biodiversity' project, and discussed how organisms alter rock properties and erosion processes on rocky shores. Details of the paper can be found here.
The coastal defences and biodiversity project has been shortlisted for the University of Exeter Impact Awards under the 'Outstanding Regional Impact' category. This is in recognition of the influence of the work on regional (and national) coastal defence practices and the project team's commitment to engagement with industry, government agencies and the general public. Winners will be announced on the 7th December.
The project team have produced guidance on the inclusion of ecological enhancement in the design and planning of coastal structures for the Environment Agency – they officially launched the guidance at the EA via a series of face:face seminars and webinars in September 2011.
We helped write a 'Good Practice Note' for Environment Agency staff, based on our experiences applying our research at Shaldon, Devon.
A new follow-on project has commenced with funding from the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. The project will run for two years, undertaken by the University of Exeter in collaboration with the universities of Oxford and Plymouth and the Marine Biological Association. Details of the project can be found here.
7. Expanding our network with Portland Port Authority.
A Knowledge Exchange between the University of Exeter and Portland Port has been undertaken to provide guidance on the potential for ecological enhancement in ports and harbours. As well as a guidance document, produced in collaboration with Treweek Environmental Consultants, a rapid appraisal of the ecological communities currently supported by rock breakwater structures at Portland was also undertaken in collaboration with local ecologists.
Armed with an interactive display, the team explained our research to the general public in Ilfracombe. Over 40 people visited our stall and asked questions about our research and what we did at Ilfracombe.
Dr Naylor gave an invited lecture to 75 delegates at Falmouth Port's Sustainable Ports Day designed to bring together all of the organisations involved in managing Falmouth's estuary.
Please contact us if you would like advice on the design and testing of habitat enhancement for other coastal defence structures.

WTO keeps fate of trade pact in suspense
Livemint, July 25, 2014
Introduction of Trade Facilitation Agreement protocol in the general council at Geneva postponed by a day
Trade minister Nirmala Sitharaman. India has objected that without the preparatory committee on trade facilitation finalizing the protocol, it should not be put before the council for consideration.
The World Trade Organization (WTO) postponed introducing the Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) protocol in the general council of the multilateral trade body at Geneva by a day, keeping the suspense on the fate of the first global trade deal reached last year in Bali. The general council—the WTO's highest decision-making body outside of ministerial conferences—is meeting on Thursday and Friday. It needs to adopt the protocol of amendment by 31 July that would bring the TFA into the WTO's legal framework.
India's trade minister Nirmala Sitharaman expressed disappointment in a telephone conversation with WTO director general Roberto Azevedo that the TFA protocol is being put before the general council even after India expressed its reservations, Mint reported on Wednesday. India has objected that without the preparatory committee on trade facilitation finalizing the protocol, it should not be put before the council for consideration. India's permanent representative to WTO, Anjali Prasad, told the preparatory committee on trade facilitation in Geneva on 3 July that the pace of implementation of the Bali decisions has been heavily skewed in favour of TFA, and decisions on other matters that were meant to have progressed together have been relegated to the background.
"We are deeply concerned that the ministerial decision on public stockholding for food security purposes is getting sidelined," Prasad said. "Till we have an assurance and visible outcomes which convince developing countries that members will engage in negotiations with commitment to finding a permanent solution on public stockholding and other Bali deliverables, India will find it difficult to join the consensus on the protocol of amendment." At the heart of the problem is the current rule of WTO that caps subsidies to the farmers in developing countries at 10% of the total value of agricultural production based on 1986-88 prices.
Developing countries are complaining that the base year is now outdated and they need to be given leeway to stock enough foodgrains for food security of millions of their poor. After intense negotiations, India derived a promise from the developed countries that a permanent solution to the issue of food security and public stockholding will be found within four years and meanwhile, according to a temporary arrangement, no country will drag the developing countries to dispute settlements within WTO if they breach the food subsidy limits till a permanent solution is found. India agreed to the TFA which is meant to simplify customs procedures, facilitate the speedy release of goods from ports and cut transaction costs—measures that are expected to benefit rich nations more than developing countries such as India—in return for the agreement on food security.
While the then UPA government led by trade minister Anand Sharma hailed it as a victory for developing countries, then Bharatiya Janata Party leader and now finance minister Arun Jaitley had criticized the government for giving in to pressure from developed countries. While developed countries are insisting that linking a permanent solution to food security with the TFA which has already been sealed at Bali is unfair, developing countries like India are maintaining that they suspect developed countries will run away after they sign off on the TFA and will not be keen to come to the table for finding a solution to the food security issue. They want to see some progress in finding a permanent solution to food security before they sign off on the TFA.
A commerce ministry official speaking under condition of anonymity said there is no great sanctity attached to the 31 July deadline. "WTO has missed many deadlines to complete the Doha development round," he said. The official said first the 31 July deadline needs to be postponed and then developing and developed countries can sit down to find common ground for a road map of progress on food security and public stockholding that would satisfy the developing countries including India. Pradeep S. Mehta, secretary-general of the NGO CUTS International and former member of the WTO's high-level panel on the future of trade, said India is doing the right thing by linking a permanent solution to food security with TFA. "Rich countries have the historical habit of dragging issues of interest to the poor while pushing issues of their interest on fast track. This needs to be challenged," he added.

An endometrial polyp as the name says originates from the endometrium, the tissue present inside the uterus. Endometrial polyps grow inside the uterine cavity. A cervical polyp grows from the epithelial cells of the cervix and usually can be seen outside the uterus at the tip of the cervix.
Sometimes polyps cause symptoms. These are usually irregular bleeding in women who still have periods and new bleeding in women who are already in menopause. Sometimes polyps do not cause any symptoms and women are unaware of their presence. Cervical polyps are sometimes seen by the doctor during a Pap Smear, endometrial polyps can be seen on ultrasound.
Most polyps can be seen on ultrasound and that is usually the first test done on women who experience abnormal bleeding. Sometimes a hysterosonogram may be required. This is a particular type of ultrasound where a special fluid is squirted inside the uterine cavity. This adds contrast helping delineate the polyp thus increasing its visualisation on ultrasound. The definitive diagnosis is made through direct visualisation with a hysteroscope. A hysteroscope is an optical instrument attached to a camera. It is inserted inside the uterus through the cervix providing direct vision of the uterine cavity and the polyp. The hysteroscope is also used to surgically remove the polyp. (please refer to the hysteroscopy explanation for more information).
Symptomatic polyps, i.e. polyps that cause bleeding, or discharge need to be removed for resolution of the symptoms and asymptomatic polyps usually need to be removed to exclude the possibility of cancer.
The removal of endometrial or cervical polyps is a relatively simple procedure.
Some cervical polyps are completely seen outside the cervix and can be removed in a doctor's office or surgery with an instrument called a polyp forceps. Endometrial polyps and deeply positioned cervical polyps require a hysteroscopy. Polyps are then removed under direct vision with special hysteroscopic surgical instruments. Small polyps can be removed as outpatient procedures with local anaesthesia. Larger polyps may require a general anaesthetic. One way or the other, there are no cuts or surgical incisions, no significant post-operative pain and the recovery is immediate.
Any growth in our bodies, from simple things like skin moles, breast nodules and ovarian cysts to more serious conditions such as cancers, happens when one particular cell multiples itself more than it should creating an extra mass of cells where there shouldn't be one. It can be seen as a small defect in the mechanisms that control cell multiplication in the body.
What is the difference between benign and malignant growths?
A benign nodule, cyst or polyp is usually limited, meaning first that it eventually stops growing and second that it doesn't spread to other areas. A malignant growth, also known as cancer, never stops growing. If untreated, it spreads to nearby organs and eventually can send metastasis to distant parts of the body.
Are endometrial and cervical polyps dangerous?
The vast majority of endometrial and cervical polyps are benign, meaning that they do not cause any harm other than simple symptoms such as vaginal bleeding and mild cramps. A small number of polyps, in the order of 1 to 3 %, can be malignant and develop into cancer.
Polyps that have been removed do not come back. There is a possibility that new polyps will grow in the future.
What if my polyp is malignant?
In a small number of cases (1 to 3%) pathology will show that the polyp is malignant. In this case more treatment may be required. This may be in the form of more investigations such as a hysteroscopy for further curettings, medication and, in a small number of cases, a hysterectomy.

Q: When declaring a static array as "private" before a parallel loop is perfectly equivalent to declaring the array inside the loop? I've encountered a situation where the code generates different results in the case of having arrays defined inside the loop on index i (case #1) and in the case of declaring them outside the loop on the i index and using the clause private (case #2).
Case #2 generates the same results of the code running on CPU only.
Case #1
  #pragma acc parallel loop
  for (j = jbeg; j <= jend; j++){

    #pragma acc loop
    for (i = ibeg; i <= iend; i++){
      double Rc[NFLX][NFLX];
      double eta[NFLX], um[NFLX], dv[NFLX];
      double lambda[NFLX], alambda[NFLX];
      double fL[NFLX], fR[NFLX];
      .
      .
      .
    }
  }}

Case #2
  #pragma acc parallel loop
  for (j = jbeg; j <= jend; j++){

    double Rc[NFLX][NFLX];
    double eta[NFLX], um[NFLX], dv[NFLX];
    double lambda[NFLX], alambda[NFLX];
    double fL[NFLX], fR[NFLX];

    #pragma acc loop private(Rc[:NFLX][:NFLX], eta[:NFLX],  \
                             um[:NFLX], lambda[:NFLX], alambda[:NFLX], \
                             dv[:NFLX], fL[:NFLX], fR[:NFLX])
    for (i = ibeg; i <= iend; i++){
      .
      .
      .
    }
  }}

I have the following values:
NFLX = 8;
jbeg = 3, jend = 258;
ibeg = 3, iend = 1026;

In which cases the two techniques are equivalent and when it is better to choose one over the other?
This is what I see with -Minfo=accel:
case #1:

case #2:
71, Local memory used for Rc,dv,fR,lambda,alambda,fL,eta

A: Technically they are equivalent, but in practice different.  What's happening is that the compiler will hoist the declaration of these arrays outside of the loops.  This is standard practice for the compiler and happens before the OpenACC directives are applied.  What should happen is that then these arrays are implicitly privatized within the scoping unit they are declared.  However the compiler doesn't currently track this so the arrays are implicitly copied into the compute region as shared arrays.  If you add the flag "-Minfo=accel", you'll see the compiler feedback messages indicating the implicit copies.
I have an open issue report requesting this support, TPR #31360, however it's been a challenge to implement so not in a released compiler as of yet.  Hence until/if we can fix the behavior, you'll need to manually hoist the declaration of these arrays and then add them to a "private" clause.


Imagine you should go to the supermarket in order to buy a jar of honey. You are there and you are looking at the different brands and options wondering what to buy and what is the best for you. In a situation like this it is likely that you will end up confused unable to make a decision. But we will give the answer to your question, the best honey you can buy is Manuka honey. Now you are probably asking why, what makes this honey better than other types. In this post we will explain why honey is unique among others and that probably will answer all your questions.
Manuka honey is a single-flower honey originating in New Zealand, and is produced by bees from flowers Manuka tree which is now known why it is called so.
In a study conducted at the University of Waikato, New Zealand has shown that honey has unique antibacterial properties that have a positive effect on many medical conditions and health general. It is much better than the highly processed generic honey in which all active ingredients are lost. Always pay attention to the origin of the honey and ensure that the way they came to the jar from the supermarket shelf.
original Manuka honey not consist artificial sweeteners, sugar or other types of honey, so if you see this in the ingredients listed on the bottle must be sure it is not the original. But do not worry if you notice some changes because each Manuka honey will have slightly different depending on the season and the country of production. If you have a chance, we advise you to get the highest quality produced in New Zealand.
You should not only consume this honey when faced with a medical problem, you can also consume a teaspoon each day to improve your immune system and overall health.
If you are using honey in order to solve the problems of the skin above listed below, you have to do is put a layer of honey and disinfected the wound, absorbs water her and heal faster.
If you want to solve their problems with internal organs that should consume a tablespoon of honey 3 times a day, or severe inflammation tablespoon every hour.
Is it true that honey is better than antibiotics? The answer is definitely yes!
A study at the University of Sydney, confirmed that honey can destroy all kinds of bacteria. It has also been shown to be effective against H. pylori, and Streptococcus pyogenes E.coli.
Later in 2004, the health institution British government licensed the medical use of honey as it works in superbugs, which are resistant to antibiotics.
Mix 2 tablespoons ginger, lime juice, manuka honey and 0.75 l of water and you will have your delicious lemonade prepared.
Every night before bed a layer of honey applied to the affected areas of the face. Keep them that way in the morning and wash them with warm water. Repeat every night and you will notice improvement.
First wash and clean your face thoroughly and then put a layer of manuka honey in it. Wait about 20 minutes and wash your face with water.

In 1964 Granada Television's Word in Action, decided to make a documentary about the British class system. Taking as their cue the Jesuit saying, Give me a child until he is seven and I will show you the man, they set out to discover if the social class of a group of 7 year olds had already determined the course of their future lives.
7 UP became a unique and prestigious collection of documentaries from around the world which provide a vivid, social history of our time. As the chosen director for South Africa, Angus Gibson follows a generation of 7 year olds from a range of social backgrounds, growing up amid prejudice and violence and carrying the legacy of apartheid. Angus returns to his characters seven years later, at 14, 21 and 28 years.
The film records the lives and opinions of South African children and has been broadcast worldwide to much acclaim.

Q: 'cv': a namespace with this name does not exist while building (VS 2015, OpenCV 3.2) While building a simple OpenCV app in VS2015 I am getting error 'cv': a namespace with this name does not exist while building while I believe I did all the required steps to configure OpenCV for VS (using this article as reference http://opencv-srf.blogspot.com/2013/05/installing-configuring-opencv-with-vs.html)
Beginning of the class is very simple
#include "opencv2/imgcodecs.hpp"
#include "opencv2/highgui.hpp"
#include "opencv2/stitching.hpp"
#include "opencv2/core/core.hpp"
#include "stdafx.h"

using namespace std;
using namespace cv;

Since Visual Studio doesn't throw any errors on #include I assume the configuration in the C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories is correct.
In Linker -> General -> Additional Library Dependencies I have the opencv\build\x64\vc14\build\lib folder added.
In Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies I have the following two libs:
opencv_world320.lib
opencv_world320d.lib

There is nothing else in this folder. Folder opencv/build/x64/vc14/bin is added to PATH.
Any suggestions what to check/change is appreciated :)

A: I had this problem as well, and the solution was maddeningly simple:
The #include "stdafx.h" must be the first #include.
The example that the OpenCV folks provide does not mention this, even when they're providing an example for doing this specifically with visual studio.
