Police were called to Ohio River Boulevard in Edgeworth this morning for reports of a man with a gun who was shooting at parked cars. The shots were fired in a parking lot that was being used by construction crews in the area. The scene is about a mile away from Sewickley Academy. A construction foreman was taken into custody. Police say 37-year-old Alan Smith Jr. was working on a project at the school. According to investigators, Smith was going to take some of his crew members over to the school at around 7 a-m when he became irritated with them. Police say Smith shot his work truck and another car. No one was hurt. Once police arrived, Smith surrendered peacefully.
Three mayors walk into an elevator – but what happened next was no joke, though the officials managed to amuse themselves until they could be rescued about 40 minutes later. Leetsdale Mayor Pete Poninski got stuck in the Westin Hotel elevator last night along with the mayors of Pittsburgh (Bill Peduto) and Millvale. They had been attending a meeting of the Allegheny League of Municipalities. Poninski tells Beaver County Radio newsman Pat Septak that none of the mayors could get cellphone service but luckily, one of the stranded passengers worked at the hotel and was able to summon maintenance crews and first responders using a walkie-talkie. Poninski says that while the mayors couldn't call for help, they did manage to use their phones to take a selfie.

The American Red Cross is assisting residents who were displaced by a house fire in Rochester yesterday afternoon. The blaze broke out around 2:30 p.m. in the 300 block of Ohio Avenue. No one was injured but the fire displaced 10 young people who lived there, all between the ages of 19 and 26. Officials say the fire broke out on the back porch of the home and spread to the kitchen…causing about 30-thousand dollars in damage. The home is expected to be repaired within days.
A Superior Court panel will rule later on the appeal of a boy who was 11 when he was charged with killing his father's pregnant fiancee and her unborn child in Lawrence County. A Lawrence County judge last year turned down Jordan Brown's request to dismiss the charges or grant a new juvenile court trial. The three-judge Superior Court panel heard arguments from the defense Tuesday. Brown was charged as a juvenile and adjudicated delinquent in the February 2009 shotgun slaying of 26-year-old Kenzie Houk, who was eight months pregnant. Authorities say none of the evidence points to anyone but Brown, who is now 18. The defense contends police rushed to judgment and appealed on the grounds that the evidence was insufficient.
Pennsylvania State Police have identified the body found in the Ohio River in the Haysville/ Glenfield area. The discovery was made around 11:30 Monday morning. Investigators have identified the man as 31-year-old Yusef Ahmed, who was reported missing last week. No further details have been released.
The Pennsylvania Superior Court is set to hear the appeal of a judge's refusal to grant a new juvenile court trial for a boy who was 11 when he allegedly killed his father's pregnant fiancee and her unborn child in 2009. The court previously sided with Jordan Brown. But when a Lawrence County judge last year refused to dismiss the charges or grant a new trial, the Wampum teen appealed again.

Pilot and passenger trapped after small plane crashes into Maryland powerlines
CEOs take pay cuts after brutal 2022
Rescue operations are underway in Maryland after the pilot and passenger of a small plane became trapped after crashing into power lines Sunday, local officials said.
Rescue units were dispatched at 5:30 p.m. to reports of a small airplane that had flown into the power lines in Montgomery County, according to Pete Piringer, chief spokesperson for Montgomery County (MD) Fire & Rescue Service.
When units arrived on the scene, they found a small plane suspended about 100 feet in the air that had struck the tower. The pilot and passenger survived and are OK, Piringer said.
The fire department is in communication with the pilot and passenger, and roads are closed as crews come up with a rescue plan, according to Piringer.
There is "no other way to determine if it's safe to access the tower until it is grounded or bonded," Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service Chief Scott Goldstein said during a Sunday evening news conference.
This involves crews ascending to put clamps or cables onto the wires to make sure there is no static electricity or residual power, the chief said. The airplane must also be secured to the tower structure, he said. Foggy weather conditions in the area are making matters more complicated, he added, by affecting visibility.
The plane "is not going to be stable until it's chained and strapped in place," Goldstein said. "Any movement, any accidental movement, could make the circumstance worse."
Goldstein said the department is regularly checking in with the plane occupants and moderating the use of their cell phones to conserve their batteries.
After the tower is safe to access and the plane is secured, crews "will work to bring the occupants of the plane out and down to the ground and transport (them) to area hospitals," Goldstein said.
Roughly 120,000 customers are without power following the crash, according to the Pepco utility company, which provides electric service to roughly 894,000 customers in Washington, DC, and surrounding areas in Maryland. Montgomery County is just north of Washington, DC.
"We have confirmed that a private plane came into contact with Pepco's transmission lines in Montgomery County," Pepco tweeted. "We are assessing damage and working closely with Montgomery County fire and emergency services."
"We are awaiting clearance to the scene before crews can begin work to stabilize the electric infrastructure and begin restoring service," the company added.
More than 40 schools in the Montgomery County Public Schools system and six central offices are currently without power, affecting services such as maintenance, buses and food service, the district said in a message on its website. School officials are monitoring the situation, the message said.
Resources from Pepco's contractor have arrived at the scene and a local company has sent a large crane to assist with the operation, Goldstein said.
Various agencies were expected to arrive at the scene around 9:30 p.m., the chief said, including the District of Columbia Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department and the Montgomery County Police Department.
"We are taking measured and risk balanced steps to approach this activity," Goldstein said.
The Federal Aviation Administration told CNN the plane is a single-engine Mooney that departed from Westchester County Airport in New York. The agency will investigate the incident along with the National Transportation Safety Board.
William Smouse, who lives about a mile from where the crash took place, told CNN affiliate WJLA on Sunday evening that he was going out to dinner with his son when he saw "two big flashes" and then multiple fire engines driving by.
"It's unfortunate but I'm glad they are still up in there. We can see the light in the cockpit of the cell phone from the pilot, we did here that they called in to say they are OK," Smouse said.
Smouse said the incident is "pretty scary" and that his house is located in an area where planes and jets often pass through.
"I think about it a lot, where they come in, and, literally, they are like 200 or 300 feet over us," he said.

We are proud to announce that Bimbola Carrol, founder and manager of Visit Sierra Leone, received the Eminence Africa For Excellence award in the category of Entrepreneurship – Tourism. Receiving this award is a great honour, of course, as it shows appreciation of the efforts Bimbola has made to advance his company, as well as the tourism industry of Sierra Leone. But most importantly, it also allows us to pause and reflect on what this means exactly, what has been done, and by whom? As Bimbola announced on his social media, "It feels great to be recognised by your peers, but I also have to acknowledge that I didn't get it on my own."
As a writer who does travel pieces for Visit Sierra Leone, I know I can be biased. I have traveled extensively, by myself, through countries whose tourism industry ranged from development to non-existent. One of the main reasons why I write for VSL is because I see how difficult it is to manage and organise trips here. The hassle, the wahala, the thousands of phone calls, trying to arrange people to move in a way novel to them, in order to receive and interact with tourists. Therefore I respect the hard work and determination. 'E nor easy o', as they would say here.
Tourism is one Sierra Leone's most promising sectors, yet the structures are not yet in place to create a thriving sector. People like Bimbola with his amazing staff are at the forefront of turning this potential into reality. And I respect the way this is being done, because the focus lies on ecotourism, on explaining and experiencing Sierra Leonean culture, of recognising the rich history. But it doesn't stop with recognition; Bimbola invests in highlighting these aspects and marketing the country. By sending writers and photographers to all parts of the country so that they can document the beautiful aspects of Sierra Leonean life. With so much negative media attention Sierra Leone receives, it is refreshing to read alternative stories. VSL as a platform doesn't just introduce visitors to our remarkable country through providing services, it also serves as a space through which stories can be read, created and experienced.
This piece is subjective, there is no way to pretend otherwise. Thus, I use this opportunity to give thanks to VSL and his team. Thank you all for helping the tourism sector of Sierra Leone blossoms, and with that helping our beloved Sierra Leone.

Q: WxPython StaticLine after Image in BoxSizer I am trying to put a StaticLine(Vertical) after an Image. After the static line, I have some buttons. I have put all of them in a BoxSizer(Horizontal). But while running I do not see the static line.
What am I doing wrong here? Please help me.
Thanks.
Here is some code.
class Frame1(wx.Frame):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwds):
        wx.Frame.__init__(self, *args, **kwds)
        self.panel1 = wx.Panel(self, wx.ID_ANY)
        img = wx.EmptyImage(MaxImageSize, MaxImageSize)
        self.imgctrl = wx.StaticBitmap(self.panel1, wx.ID_ANY, wx.BitmapFromImage(img))
        self.st = wx.StaticLine(self.panel1, wx.ID_ANY, style=wx.LI_VERTICAL)
        self.but = wx.Button(self.panel1, wx.ID_ANY, 'OK')
        self.hbox = wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
        self.hbox.Add(self.imgctrl, 0, wx.ALL, 5)
        self.hbox.Add(self.st, 0, wx.ALL, 5)

        self.panel1.SetSizer(self.hbox)
        self.hbox.Fit(self.panel1)

A: When you add the staticline to the sizer you need to set the expand flag, so it expands to fill the sizer vertically.

Computer Resourcex Series
Earth Revealedx
Down to Earth [electronic resource]
Surface conditions of the planets Venus and Mars are compared with those of Earth, and scenes of Earth's living landscapes lead into a discussion of how unique Earth truly is. Major topics addressed in the series, including plate tectonics, natural resources, seismology, and erosion, are introduced in this program.
The Restless Planet
The Restless Planet [electronic resource]
Reveals that early Greek astronomers believed that Earth was the center of the universe but this notion changed dramatically over time, especially after the invention of the telescope. Traces the development of astronomical theory with discussions of the discoveries of Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Newton. Unique characteristics of Earth are also discussed.
Earth's Interior
Earth's Interior [electronic resource]
Introduces the topic of geophysics, exploring methods of studying what lies beneath Earth's surface. Geophysicists use seismic wave studies, variations in temperature, magnetic fields, gravity, and computer simulations to create models of deep structures.
The Sea Floor
The Sea Floor [electronic resource]
Looks at the research by submersibles and indirect methods used to study the bottom of the sea, providing a glimpse of volcanic activity, formations such as the continental shelf and mid-ocean ridges, and life forms that thrive at extreme depths.
The Birth of a Theory
The Birth of a Theory [electronic resource]
Traces the development of plate tectonics, beginning with the contributions and methods of geologist Alfred Wegener. Sea-floor spreading, continental drift, paleomagnetism, and the primordial supercontinent Pangaea are some of the topics covered.
Plate Dynamics
Plate Dynamics [electronic resource]
Examines the movement and interaction of tectonic plates, which account for a vast array of geologic formations and phenomena, from California's San Andreas Fault to the Rift Valley of eastern Africa. Topics include convergent boundaries, subduction, hotspots, and the debate over what drives plate motion.
Mountain Building
Mountain Building [electronic resource]
Destroys the myth of the mountain as a solid, permanent structure. Animations are used to illustrate the process of orogeny (mountain building) through accretion and erosion, as well as the role of plate tectonics, the rock cycle, and how different types of rock are formed in the course of mountain building.
Earth's Structures
Earth's Structures [electronic resource]
A visit to the Grand Canyon lays the foundation for this exploration of rock layers and deformation. Topics include sedimentation, major structures, the methods used to examine them, and how petroleum may be trapped inside rock layers. The program also looks at tectonic force and the different types of stress involved in the formation of geologic structures.
Earthquakes [electronic resource]
Showing actual footage of earthquakes and their aftermath, discusses the forces that fuel these massive events. Faults, waves, and the transfer of energy from the epicenter are explained, and histories of the seismograph and Richter scale are presented. The program also describes devices being developed to study and eventually predict earthquakes.
Geologic Time
Geologic Time [electronic resource]
To illustrate the immensity of geologic time, the entire span of Earth's existence is compressed down to a year. The timeline of major geologic events is superimposed onto the year for a condensed view of Earth's evolution. A relationship between this timeline and that of life on Earth is established, with fossils and radiocarbon dating playing a major role in the discovery
Evolution Through Time
Evolution Through Time [electronic resource]
The fossil record reveals much about the diversity and development of species. Examines the traces left by early plants, animals, and single-celled organisms and follows the progression of life forms over time. Connections are drawn between atmospheric gases, climate change, rock formation, biological functions, and mass extinctions.
Minerals: The Materials of Earth
Minerals [electronic resource]: The Materials of Earth
Looks at the variety of minerals that have been indispensable to human civilization, their atomic and crystalline structures, and their physical properties such as hardness and luster. Petrologist's methods of sectioning rocks are demonstrated, and gems, precious metals, ore excavation, and the value of silicates are discussed
Volcanism
Volcanism [electronic resource]
Volcanoes provide clues about what is going on inside Earth. Animations illustrate volcanic processes and how plate boundaries are related to volcanism. Also surveys the various types of eruptions, craters, cones and vents, lava domes, magma, and volcanic rock. The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens serves as one example.
Intrusive Igneous Rocks
Intrusive Igneous Rocks [electronic resource]
Explains that most magma does not extrude onto Earth's surface but cools slowly deep inside Earth. This magma seeps into crevices in existing rock to form intrusive igneous rocks. Experts provide a graphic illustration of this process and explain the types and textures of rocks such as granite, obsidian, and quartz. Once again, plate tectonics is shown to be involved in the process.
Weathering and Soils
Weathering and Soils [electronic resource]
Explains that the Cleopatra's Needle obelisk in New York City's Central Park is severely weathered after only 75 years, whereas the dry climate of Egypt has preserved similar structures in that country for millennia. Shows how weather, climate, chemicals, temperature, and type of substrate, factor into rock and soil erosion. Environmental connections are also considered.
Mass Wasting
Mass Wasting [electronic resource]
Explains that anyone undertaking a building project must understand mass wasting or the downslope movement of earth under the influence of gravity. Various factors in mass wasting, including the rock's effective strength and pore spaces, are discussed, as are different types of mass wasting such as creep, slump, and landslides. Images of an actual landslide illustrate the phenomenon.
Sedimentary Rocks: The Key to Past Environments
Sedimentary Rocks [electronic resource]: The Key to Past Environments
Returns to the Grand Canyon where exposed layers of sedimentary rock allow scientists to peer into the geologic past. The movement of sediment and its deposition are covered, and the processes of lithification, compaction, and cementation that produce sedimentary rocks are explained. Organic components of rock are also discussed.
Metamorphic Rocks [electronic resource]
Demonstrates that the weight of a mountain creates enough pressure to recrystallize rock, thus creating metamorphic rocks. Outlines the recrystallization process and the types of rock it can create, from claystone and slate to schist and garnet-bearing gneiss. The relationship of metamorphic rock to plate tectonics is also covered.
Running Water: Rivers, Erosion and Deposition
Running Water 1 [electronic resource]: Rivers, Erosion and Deposition
Demonstrates that rivers are the most common land feature on Earth and play a vital role in the sculpting of land. Shows landscapes formed by rivers, the various types of rivers, the basic parts of a river, and how characteristics of rivers, their slope, channel, and discharge, erode and build the surrounding terrain. Aspects of flooding are also discussed
Running Water: Landform Evolution
Running Water 2 [electronic resource]: Landform Evolution
Demonstrates the power of rivers in showing how the Colorado River is powerful enough to have carved the Grand Canyon. Focuses on how such carving takes place over time, looking at erosion and deposition processes as they relate to river characteristics and type of rock. The evolution of rivers is covered, along with efforts to prevent harmful consequences to humans.

Home Israel Foreign Affairs Peace OSLO DECLARATION-13-Sep-94
OSLO DECLARATION-13-Sep-94
Oslo, September 13, 1994
OSLO DECLARATION
1. On the occasion of meeting in Oslo on September 13 for the first anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Principles, Foreign Minister Bjoern Tore Godal, Chairman Yasser Arafat and Foreign Minister Shimon Peres declared their appreciation for the gradual implementation of the Declaration of Principles in Gaza and Jericho first and the beginning of the implementation of the agreement regarding early empowerment in the West Bank.
Mr. Arafat and Mr. Peres expressed their appreciation to the people and the Government of Norway for their unique role in the historic breakthrough between the Israeli people and the Palestinian people.
Representatives of the United States, the Federal Republic of Germany in her capacity as President of the European Union, Japan, the EU Commission and the United Nations were present at an unofficial meeting between the parties and the donor community.
2. The two sides declared their commitment to fully implement the Declaration of Principles and to continue the process between them based on the Declaration of Principles and on subsequent agreements.
3. The two sides declared that they see the role of the ongoing political process between them as contributing to the security of both sides and are committed to taking the necessary measures to put an end to acts of violence, moving to implement outstanding and mutual confidence building measures, promoting their economic relationship, and developing the economy of the Palestinian Authority.
4. In this context, the two sides have agreed to ask the Government of Norway, as chair of the Ad Hoc Liaison Committee, to convene an unofficial emergency meeting as soon as possible in Paris to be guided by the following principles and needs:
a. The two sides call on the donor community to make an immediate effort to meet the recurrent costs of the Palestinian Authority and the early empowerment.
b. Both sides accept the request by the AHLC chairman that they shall not bring before the donor community (the AHLC or the Consultative Group) those political issues that are of disagreement between them. They will deal with such issues between themselves, based on the Declaration of Principles and subsequent agreements.
c. The PLO reaffirms its commitment to develop the tax collection system of the Palestinain Authority in order to limit the timetable for foreign assistance to cover recurrent costs. Donor contributions to finance recurrent costs will gradually decrease with the increase of Palestinian revenues.
d. The emergency financial needs, including existing arrears, of the Palestinian Police should be financed by the donor community preferably until the end of 1994 only (and not exceeding the end of March 1995).
Mr. Arafat and Mr. Peres will together approach the Secretary- General of the United Nations to request that the United Nations Development Programme should serve as the mechanism for immediately channeling existing funds to the Palestinian Police.
e. The parties have decided that, based on donor contributions, they will sign an understanding setting out the responsibilities of the donors, Israel and the Palestinian Authority at next week's meeting of the AHLC, concerning financing of the early empowerment based on Palestinian-Israeli cooperative efforts to establish a fully-functioning Palestinian tax collection mechanism. A draft understanding will be distributed among the donors prior to the meeting.
f. Subsequently, regarding the operation of the Holst Fund, the United States, Norway, the United Nations and others will commence a high level and intensive effort to generate funds and to reallocate existing funds. The United States has informed the parties that it will dispatch envoys to various capitals, including those in the region. Donors have advised that they will make a great effort to contribute to the Holst Fund and other recurrent cost instruments.
g. A special effort will be made to seek support for transitional projects and short-term job creation projects which donors can implement quickly.
h. The successful implementation of the above efforts to cover the urgent needs of the Palestinian Authority, the Palestinian Police and early empowerment will enable the donor community to focus on the longer-term development needs of Gaza and the West Bank.
i. In order to encourage fast implementation of Palestinian project development in the West Bank, the Civil Administration and PECDAR will discuss their means of cooperation under the existing system and procedures until full empowerment in the West Bank is reached.
5. Mr. Arafat and Mr. Peres expressed their satisfaction with the recent positive developments in the peace process, including the recent developments between Jordan and Israel, the recent statements by Syria and by Israel and the upcoming Casablanca conference.

Automakers, suppliers struggle to find and keep talent
Seven years after the Great Recession, the industry is stretched to find engineers
Stephanie Hernandez McGavin
Cooper-Standard's Brian Griffin: "We just can't do it all through the college recruiting."
DETROIT -- Brian Griffin is like a lot of people in the auto supply chain looking for engineers these days: He's searching for new ways to find talent.
The vice president of human resources at Cooper-Standard Automotive, which supplies sealing and anti-vibration systems to automakers around the world, says the industry is unprepared after it downsized at the start of the Great Recession.
"There were engineers in the market all over the place, and we did no college recruiting and could fill all of our jobs with ease," Griffin said.
Now employers can't afford to be picky, he said, so Cooper-Standard restructured itself to fill more jobs with young engineers. Griffin said the company can fill about half of its engineering positions with experienced workers and has increased college recruiting to fill the rest with recent graduates in a "grow our own approach."
"We just can't do it all through the college recruiting," Griffin said, adding that some engineering positions are suitable for new graduates, but others require more experience.
Cooper-Standard, with more than $3.3 billion in estimated annual revenue, is just one example.
Staffing company Kelly Services fills thousands of auto industry jobs every day, placing an engineer nearly every 30 seconds, said Al Sowers, Kelly Services' vice president of U.S. operations.
The increasing stream of engineering openings underscores the need for the auto industry to attract and invest in younger workers -- and not just engineers.
The U.S. is expected to produce 12.2 million vehicles in 2016, up from 11.1 million in 2013, according to the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor, Mich.
Likewise, the auto industry's manufacturing work force has been on the rise. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates the industry's manufacturing sector employs about 937,500 workers. That is 126,500 more than three years ago and 222,900 more than in 2011.
But with CAR estimating U.S. auto production of 12.5 million vehicles in 2018, low U.S. unemployment and labor participation rates mean suppliers and manufacturers will have to cover their bases in the skilled trades and entry-level departments, too.
Engineers wanted
Engineers are in high demand by auto suppliers and manufacturers, which are fighting harder than ever to fill positions to match advancing vehicle technology and manufacturing processes.
Since 2014, auto suppliers' most-advertised U.S. auto manufacturing job has been computer systems software engineer, according to global job site aggregator Indeed.com. The position remained on top while its number of postings rose 84 percent from 2014 to 378 postings on June 31, 2016.
Computer systems software engineers also top the list for automakers this year. Data from the Detroit 3 through June showed the same four engineering positions among the five most-advertised positions since 2014 on Indeed: mechanical engineers, software quality assurance engineers and computer application and systems software engineers.
Indeed pulled its data from the Detroit 3 and the top 10 suppliers on Automotive News' list of the top 100 global suppliers.
From January to June, global job site Monster Worldwide Inc. compiled a similar list. Its most-advertised U.S. auto manufacturing job: industrial engineer. The position had an average posting length of 49 days. The second most-advertised job was mechanical engineer with a 46-day posting, which doesn't necessarily mean the job was filled when removed. Monster's top jobs trended toward engineers and leadership positions such as production and operating supervisors.
But Monster also posted an overall decrease of 3 percent in auto manufacturing postings from January to June, the first such drop for the first half of a year since Monster started tracking the numbers in July 2012.
Grads, apprentices welcome
For companies such as Cooper-Standard that are eyeing college students, there may be some problems. The auto industry isn't exactly the destination favored by college graduates, said Tom Lehner, vice president of public policy at the Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association. The association represents original equipment and aftermarket auto suppliers across the U.S.
Lehner said some MEMA members say hiring and retaining a strong work force over the past couple of years has been an "ongoing challenge."
A large reason for this, Lehner said, is because "technology jobs" are taught or emphasized as computer work, not as vehicle technology or manufacturing techniques. So as the labor pool shrinks, he said, those newly available graduates take their skills to places such as Silicon Valley.
"One of the reasons, quite frankly, suppliers and auto companies have opened offices in Silicon Valley is so they're closer to some of the skill sets out there," Lehner said. "And given how much innovation has taken place in the [automotive] industry, it's a convenient marriage, if you will, of technology talent and taking advantage of innovation."
Still, demand remains heavy where suppliers are clustered -- near assembly plants in Detroit, Ohio, Indiana and the Southeast, he said.
Cooper-Standard's Griffin said that demand extends further into a skilled-trades search, noting that companies need to invest, not only in college graduates, but in apprenticeship programs so young people can start filling important skilled-trades positions.
Entry-level trouble
It seems the available number of employees is dwindling at every level, but it's really nothing new, said Kristin Dziczek, the director of industry, labor and economics at the Center for Automotive Research.
Labor participation in the auto industry, and in general, has been declining for years thanks to retiring baby boomers. In July, participation in the U.S. was 62.8 percent, compared with 66.1 percent 10 years ago, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
"The next generation is not going to replace the labor force participation," Dziczek said. "Nothing compares to the boomers. So when they leave, changes will have to be made."
There's more trouble as the U.S. unemployment rate remained at a low 4.9 percent in July. Now labor challenges extend into entry-level work, which hasn't received a lift for some time, Dziczek said.
"For manufacturing and supplier jobs, the inflation-adjusted wage has fallen 25 percent in the last five or six years," Dziczek said. "There are more options in other sectors that pay similarly to entry-level manufacturing jobs."
The lack of autonomy working on an assembly line, for example, plus poor pay means people, especially younger workers, often go elsewhere for work, Dziczek said. Unskilled blue collar work in the auto industry used to be desirable, offering solid wages, competitive benefits and protection from layoffs, but that "has been chipped away," she said.
Indeed's website is loaded with jobs for automotive engineers, particularly in software.
Prepared to 'adapt'
Dziczek noted some advancement, such as last year's contracts between the UAW and the Detroit 3. The contracts eliminated the two-tier pay system, allowing entry-level workers higher pay, but it didn't touch pensions or other seniority issues. And what the Detroit 3 decides, Dziczek said, can set a precedent for suppliers.
Kelly Services' Sowers said the key to hiring and retaining employees will be for companies to engage workers and allow them to work their way up.
"We're not predicting a huge influx of talent or labor," Sowers said. "We as an organization at Kelly, we're forecasting the next 10 to 15 years to be a tight labor market."
As automakers, suppliers and research experts decide which course of action is best for assembling a work force, Cooper-Standard's Griffin said one thing is certain: The industry will readjust, as it always does.
"I think we're holding our own, and I think most of us are looking out there and are anticipating that it's probably as challenging now as it's going to be," Griffin said. "If this is just our new normal, we'll adapt and be OK and we don't want to be too far ahead of ourselves."

KARACHI, May 11, 2011: Tameer Microfinance Bank Limited (TMBL) will offer NGO and microfinance institution Asasah cash management and service delivery facilities for loan disbursements and repayments. Asasah clients will be able to receive disbursed loans at any of Tameer network of 100 branch banking outlets, as well as at any 1Link ATM in the country, and repay the loans via easypaisa branchless banking solution.
A formal agreement to this effect was signed at Tameer head office here today between Nadeem Hussain, President & CEO Tameer Microfinance Bank Limited and Tabinda Jaferry, CEO Asasah in the presence of Yaseen Anwar, Deputy Governor, State Bank of Pakistan.
Speaking about the benefits of branchless banking, the Deputy Governor said: The use of mobile financial services such as easypaisa by microfinance institutions will allow them to serve their clients in a cost-effective and transparent manner. State Bank of Pakistan is pleased to see branchless banking solutions being used to strengthen the microfinance industry.
In his comments, Nadeem Hussain, President & CEO Tameer Microfinance Bank Limited said: As part of Tameer strategy to offer mobile financial services, we are excited to be able to offer a solution to Asasah that we hope will go a long way in introducing to other organizations the benefits of using easypaisa, a service being offered jointly by Tameer and Telenor Pakistan. Microfinancing through mobile financial services has seen great success in other parts of the world and we are keen to replicate this in Pakistan too.
Tabinda Jaferry, CEO Asasah in her remarks said: Because of Tameer services our clients, who are all women and whom we seek to empower, will benefit by being able to obtain a loan easily, and to repay it conveniently through easypaisa, saving them both time and money such as that spent on unnecessary travel.
Tameer Bank is a fast-growing microfinance bank licensed by State Bank of Pakistan in August 2005. It is the first bank to have approval to conduct branchless banking business in Pakistan. In December 2008 Tameer entered into an agreement with Telenor Pakistan, which acquired 51 per cent of the shares in Tameer Microfinance Bank. The move is part of the bank strategy to offer mobile financial services in Pakistan.
Asasah -- a registered Pakistani NGO and microfinance institution (MFI) based in central Punjab with 23 branches -- began operations in March 2003 with 100 % commercial funding from the First Elite Capital Modarba. It was the first NGO-MFI in Pakistan to partner with commercial financial institutions. So far it has issued commercially viable loans to 6,800 groups, helping improve the lives of almost 34,000 individuals.

Compton to Compton challenge hits half-way point
Football boots have been swapped for cycling shoes and trainers as Wolves Women ride, row and run their way from Wolverhampton to California in a virtual charity challenge to raise funds for Compton Care, the palliative care provider whose base is close to the football club's training ground.
Midway through the month-long challenge, Team Wolves Women have crossed the Atlantic and have already gone past the half-way point of both the 5,331-mile trek from Compton, Wolverhampton to Compton, California and their fundraising target of £5,000 to aid the vital work of Compton Care.
The virtual challenge is being taken on by all of the players, from the first team squad to youngsters in the Wolves Regional Talent Club, plus the management and coaching staff. "It's a complete team effort," says captain Anna Price, whose initial contact with Compton Care led to the novel fundraiser.
"It all started with a call I had from Kate Kelly, the Community and Events Manager at Compton Care," explains Price. "Kate asked if we might be able to help raise the profile of the charity in terms of fundraising, which has become difficult with lots of events cancelled because of the coronavirus situation.
"I then had a chat with Dan McNamara (Wolves Women team manager), and it was Dan who came up with the idea of the Compton to Compton challenge. We aimed to start and finish it in May and it's gone really well so far. The players are loving it and what we are doing is for a great cause.
"Compton Care do a fantastic job for local people with incurable illnesses and we are very happy to be supporting them. With no football to be played during the pandemic, the challenge has also kept us together as players and staff and without doubt it's keeping our fitness levels well up to scratch.
"We've suddenly become mad cyclists! I got my bike out of the garage for the first time in about eight years to get some miles in. Other players have done the same, and some have even bought new bikes to play their part. A lot of us are also running, and some of the girls are using rowing machines for their miles.
"Our efforts are being very closely monitored – every run, row or ride we take is recorded and the figures are totted up by our staff. We've also been taking videos of ourselves to put on social media in the hope that it will keep the interest in the challenge going and, most importantly, keep fundraising donations coming in."
Having had their football season 'null and voided' by the FA due to the pandemic, Wolves Women have been denied what looked like certain promotion after a near faultless campaign. Everyone involved at the club was understandably distraught but, says Price, morale has been lifted by the charity challenge.
"We were all devastated when we heard about the FA decision," admits Price. "To miss out on the prize we'd worked so hard for was a bitter disappointment and that will stay with us forever. But we couldn't keep dwelling on it and this challenge we've take on has given us a new focus and passion."

Updates on the how the players are getting on with the challenge throughout the month will be posted on the Wolves Women social media pages.

GigE Vision is an interface standard introduced in 2006 for high-performance industrial cameras. It provides a framework for transmitting high-speed video and related control data over Ethernet networks. The distribution of software or development, manufacture or sale of hardware that implement the standard, require the payment of annual licensing fees.
The standard was initiated by a group of 12 companies, and the committee has since grown to include more than 50 members.  The 12 founding members were: Adimec, Atmel, Basler AG, CyberOptics, Teledyne DALSA, JAI A/S, JAI PULNiX, Matrox, National Instruments, Photonfocus, Pleora Technologies and Stemmer Imaging. The Automated Imaging Association (AIA) oversees the ongoing development and administration of the standard.

GigE Vision is based on the Internet Protocol standard. One goal is to unify current protocols for industrial cameras. The other is to make it easier for 3rd party organizations to develop compatible software and hardware.

GigE Vision is not an open protocol, and as such a special license is required to develop GigE camera drivers.

Technology
GigE Vision has four main elements:
 GigE Vision Control Protocol (GVCP)—Runs on the UDP protocol. The standard defines how to control and configure devices. Specifies stream channels and the mechanisms of sending image and configuration data between cameras and computers.
 GigE Vision Stream Protocol (GVSP)—Runs on the UDP protocol. Covers the definition of data types and the ways images can be transferred via GigE.
 GigE Device Discovery Mechanism—Provides mechanisms to obtain IP addresses.
 XML description file based on a schema defined by the European Machine Vision Association's GenICam standard that allows access to camera controls and image streams.

Police Brutality Is One Of The Most Serious Human Rights Violation
1311 Words Nov 24th, 2014 6 Pages
Police brutality is one of the most serious human rights violation in the United States. The excessive use of force by officers including severe beatings, fatal chokings, and unjustified beatings against innocent civilians persists today. On June 8, 2011, a 34 years-old man named Ernest Duenez was shot and killed by Manteca, CA police officer, John Moody. Moody was waiting for Duenez in a corner, when he saw Duenez's truck he followed him to his driveway. Moody yelled at Duenez to drop his weapon, despite the fact that no weapon was visible. As soon as Duenez stepped out of the car, Moody fired 13 shots, striking Duenez 11 times in his back, head and chest. After months of attending court, Duenez's family obtained a video, which does not show Duenez in the possession of any weapons, which experts later confirmed. Moody was suspended for 3 days and then was promoted to a detective and now training officer (Hazen). While most criminal systems should hold these officers accountable, instead the officers are guaranteed impunity. The police have taken for granted the trust us citizens have invested in them and put the community as a whole in fear. These are all the reasons why police brutality should be stopped: in order to remind the officers that it is their job to serve the public, not themselves. With the help of the federal government police brutality will be resolved.

Research Highlight: Suicide and Its Prevention - Suicide is a serious problem associated with mood disorders. Students are asked to respond to a questionnaire containing ten true/false statement regarding suicide. Major warning signs of suicide are reviewed. Critical Thinking/Active Learning: How Your Thoughts Can Make You Depressed – Students are presented with two situations which provide an opportunity to think about how thoughts may cause mild to serious depression. IV. SCHIZOPHRENIA - Schizophrenia is a serious psychotic mental disorder that afflicts approximately one out of every 100 people. A. Symptoms of Schizophrenia - The major symptoms are disturbances in perception (impaired filtering and selection, and hallucinations); language and thought disturbances (impaired logic, word salads, neologisms, and delusions); emotional disturbances (either exaggerated or blunted emotions); and behavioral disturbances (social withdrawal, bizarre mannerisms, catalepsy, waxy flexibility). B. Types of Schizophrenia – For many years researchers have divided the schizophrenias into paranoid, catatonic, disorganized, undifferentiated, and residual subtypes. An alternative classification system has been proposed. Schizophrenic symptoms involving distorted or excessive mental activity (e.g., delusions and hallucinations) would be classified as positive symptoms , whereas symptoms involving behavioral deficits (e.g., toneless voice, flattened emotions) would be classified as negative symptoms . C. Explaining Schizophrenia - Biological theories of the causes of schizophrenia emphasize genetics (people inherit a predisposition), disruptions in neurotransmitters (primarily dopamine), and abnormalities in brain structure or function (such as enlarged ventricles or low levels of activity in the frontal and temporal lobes). Psychosocial theories of schizophrenia focus on two possible psychosocial contributors. The diathesis-stress model suggests that stress is a trigger for initial episodes and for relapse.

"Good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep" (John 10:11). These are the words on the tombstone of Msgr. Schraven and his eight companions, who were killed in October 1937.
The representatives of Japanese army controlling Zhengding city then, the delegates of different countries of the victims, and the Chinese society, all admitted that Msgr. Schraven had died to protect his sheep—those women and children, thus a tombstone was built up to commemorate it. Although the Japanese representatives participated the Requiem Mass, at the Zhengding Cathedral, apologized orally and bowed publicly, and even paid compensation money, the tombstone is very simple, with only the afore-said bible quotation and the names of the martyrs and the date, but without the signature of the builder, nor the mentioning of how those nine missionaries were brutally killed, nor who carried out the atrocities.
The practical significance of the Zhengding Church massacre is that the lives of those women and children were protected and saved, their dignity respected, and the social justice was upheld as well, but there was a heavy price paid—the lives of nine missionaries. It's disappointing for us to realize that the killers had been trying to cover up the truth till now, to say nothing about apologizing in public. For more than half a century, not only has the citizens of victimized country had no opportunity to know the historical truth, the local people has had no opportunity to commemorate and thank those friends who sacrificed their lives for their older generations. The questions need to be asked are: Besides the protection of women and children, is there any transcendent meaning in their silent sacrifices? Similiarly, what is the meaning and value of those who died silently for the sake of justice during the war? In light of the martyrdom of the key figures of Zhengding Church Massacre, namely Bp. Schraven and his companions, this article is to use two New Testament stories, depicting people killed for the sake of justice to in the New Testament, as examples to talk about the meaning of those, including religious figures, died for Justice.
There are two similar events in the New Testament: the killing of John the Baptist and the killing of all the children in Bethlehem under two years of age when Jesus was born.
John the Baptist could be seen as a prophet of the Israelites; he was also the one who prepared the way for Jesus the Messiah. He challenged people of all walks of life and urged them to repent, to turn away from evil. He even chastised King Herod, for which he was put into prison. The unlawful wife Herod wanted to have was his sister-in-law Herodias, who managed to kill John the Baptist. A prophet, a well respected figure, was killed in prison; he died alone, no one was there to accompany him (Matt 14:6-12; Mark 6:14-25; Lk 9:7-9).
The second case is about a group of innocent children. King Herod was afraid that the new born Messiah could threaten his throne; therefore, as he could not locate the new born king, he gave orders to kill those under two years of age in Bethlehem where Jesus was born (Matt 2:13-18).
There are some similarities between these two events in the New Testament and Zhengding Church massacre.
First, whether it was John the Baptist, the innocent children, or Msgr. Schraven and his companions, none of them chose to die; they died without a choice. Playing the role of a prophet, John the Baptist was urging people to repent, to prepare the way for Jesus, he even introduced his own disciples to follow Jesus. What the innocent children wanted was to happily sleep, eat, and play in their mother's arms, and then to grow up gradually. Msgr. Schraven tried to negotiate with the Japanese soldiers, to solve the problem in a peaceful manner; he sent two priests to talk to the Japanese, but they were detained.
Secondly, the way they died was similar: John the Baptist, even though he is a well respected prophet, died quietly and alone. No one was beside him at his death, he accepted death alone. Even his cousin--the Messiah--did not appear to save him. Those innocent children could not utter a word, they were born at Jesus' time, however, they were not blessed nor protected, but were killed instead. It is hard to accept this reality for anyone. Bishop Schraven, the prelate of Zhenging, built good relationship with other people and engaged in various charity works, but on Oct 9th, 1937, he was forcefully taken away from the people he cared for and was killed in the dark night, and his body burned at the foot of Lingxiao Pagoda. Among the nine, some were simply guests passing by, some were friends; they could not speak for themselves, could not choose; they were like the innocent children killed without uttering a word.
Thirdly, John the Baptist, the innocent children, and Msgr. Schraven and his companions, all died as witnesses of righteousness and justice. When Msgr. Schraven was taken away by the Japanese soldiers, he firmly refused the request to exchange his life with some young women as he said to them: "I am a bishop, I'd rather die than accepting your request!" On that dark night, at the foot of Lingxiao Pagoda, those martyrs offered prayers of repentance right before their death.
Fourthly, there are two models for the Church: the role of servant and that of prophet. Msgr. Schraven embraced both. He served the people of Zhengding through means of charitable works like a servant during his life time, and at the end he offered his life like a prophet. At the present time, these two models are both needed for the church community. Though the role of servant is marked by hardship and danger, is relatively safer. The role of prophet, however, is much more dangerous and costly, and rarer and more precious as well.
Finally, we can look at the meaning of the silent sacrifices of Bp. Schraven and his companions for the sake of protecting others from another perspective: Had they had kept silence, stopped symbolically, and then gave up, society could not excessively demanded and criticized them, their lives would have been spared from the inhuman torture and killing. However, these religious figures had chosen to walk along with the women, children, and the injured. In order to protect the lives and dignity of others, they willingly chose to stay in the troubled areas under tremendous pressure and suffering. Some of them even sacrificed their lives silently. Their acts of justice are indeed not the same as those who had died heroically for their country and nation, but they had chosen what others were not willing to choose, and eventually died for the ordinary people silently. In certain sense, this kind of spirit is even more precious and rarer. Their actions against the evil, violence, and killings had become the social conscience and relayed the positive energy in society. At the same time, they had also awakened the sense of social justice in others. For this reason, not only have the sacrifices of Bp. Schraven and his companions gone beyond the narrow-minded nationalism and state concept, but have offered a transcendent meaning. In this sense, the martyrdom of Bp. Schraven and his companions, as well as all those who have died for justice, have done unforgettable contributions to human civilization and morality.
The motivation for Bp. Schraven and his companions' sacrifices for the sake of justice and others is undoubtedly originated from their religious faith. Although their sacrifices have not been made known to the public for more than half a century, their lives are not ended but merely transformed with a new beginning when looked at from the faith point of view. Their acts and sacrifices for justice will for sure be passed down and will be richly rewarded by Heaven.
