You remember how I was disappointed with the Sarawak Robotics competition last year?
The cherry on the cake was that we defeated SM Teknik Sejingkat, & SMK Bandar Bintulu, two teams which have represented Malaysia at the World Robotics Olympiad.
Meanwhile, my boss was pleased, and said "It's in Miri this year? No problem, and we should definitely send our team".
The problem was, I'm getting tired of doing the same thing year in, and year out. The team needs 'fresh legs' and not my 'tired legs'.
Next articleSour Grapes or Just Bitter?
Thanks bro. Em, I hope so.. will be pushing for it this year. Need fresh legs.
You should totally keep doing it. Time to branch out! Congrats!!!
Well, I hope to 'rest'. The training is kind of tiring and I spend hours at work sometimes just to get it finished.

Thoughts: I would give this book a high five because it explains a complicated storyline so easily. It's also very fun to read because every chapter leaves on a cliffhanger with disaster waiting to happen. This is such an amazing book because the author Sara King is able to use a very common Science Fiction storyline and make it way different, and thus, more interesting and exciting. I also love the characters because they are all different and take up so many cross view points - but it all connects perfectly in the end. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this book, and I'm so excited for the next book to come out!


Home / Court / Fishing expedition!
Another witness ordered to appear in a joint action brought by Frank Errol Gibson against the State has taken serious issue with the order.
Monday, Director of Public Prosecutions Charles Leacock, QC, strongly objected to being called before the No.8 Supreme Court as a witness in the matter.
Gibson is claiming damages in excess of $2 million in the lawsuit against the DPP's office, the Attorney General and Dr Victor Eastmond.
"The subpoena issuing on the application of affidavit is frivolous, is vexatious," Francis Depeiza, who is legal counsel for Dr Eastmond, told the court presided over by Madam Justice Pamela Beckles today.
Gibson is claiming that he was wrongfully charged, imprisoned and prosecuted for the 2002 murder of Francine Bolden, after the DPP discontinued the case against him on November 8, 2012 on the grounds that there was insufficient evidence to make out a case beyond reasonable doubt.
"[Dr Eastmond] has no apparent added value . . . to the proceedings in this case because Dr Eastmond cannot assist in what happened in the DPP's chambers," Depeiza argued.
In fact, the attorney called for the "subpoena [to] be struck out and withdrawn," on the basis that it infringed on his client's "privileges" under the Evidence Act.
"A witness has a right to object to give evidence in a matter to which he is not a party, on the basis that to do so may expose him to civil liability," Depeiza argued, adding that the summons was riddled with "irregularities" and was an "abuse of process".
"We are not denying that a person not party to an action cannot be called. He may be called in order to attend and he may be called to produce documents but not just any and every document because it cannot be a fishing expedition," the attorney said.
But the claimant's attorney, Larry Smith, countered saying that Dr Eastmond gave evidence as a "forensic odontologist" in another matter that was pertinent to the claimant's case.
"Dr Eastmond as a result of indicating in his report . . . signed by him, purporting to be a forensic odontologist, certain actions took place, the end result of which is that Mr Gibson spent ten and a half years in prison. Nobody is saying that Dr Eastmond is the DPP or the AG but he was the principal witness, so said the CCJ [Caribbean Court of Justice and the] DPP. His evidence was the only evidence in that matter and that he is aware of," Smith argued.
He also stood by his position that the summons issued by his office through the court was lawful and that the witnesses called must appear and take the stand.
"It is our submission that if Dr Eastmond wants to assert that there will be a civil penalty arising, he actually has to go and do that on the witness stand, not through his counsel," Smith maintained.
Meantime, the DPP was basically quiet at the bar table today following yesterday's fiery exchange with Smith on whether he could represent himself on some aspects of the case.
Smith said then the DPP could not do so unless he first indicated whether he had "fired the Solicitor General" as his legal counsel and was now representing himself.
She ordered that written submissions be made on the objections to the summons and reasons why the DPP should and or should not represent himself in certain matters of the case.
Justice Beckles then adjourned the matter until November 2, 2016.
I encourage Mr. Smith in his pursuit of justice for his client and of holding the justice system up to scrutiny and accountability. It is vitally important that this case be heard. A citizen must not be arrested and brought before the Court until there is sufficient evidence to support the charges that are laid. The Law must make it mandatory that a case must proceed within a reasonable time after charges are laid, which should be months. It is wrong to imprison a citizen and then try to find evidence to keep him/her there. Who compensates them when no evidence can be found?

Les Orientales est un recueil de poèmes écrit par Victor Hugo et publié en 1829.

Un exotisme flamboyant
Composé de quarante-et-un poèmes dont trente-six datent de 1828, l'ouvrage, très fortement marqué par le philhellénisme ou engouement de l'époque pour la Grèce (Navarin, Enthousiasme, l'Enfant), offre une série de tableaux hauts en couleur de l'Orient méditerranéen.

Mais le pittoresque n'épuise pas la richesse du recueil où voisinent les accents guerriers, épiques, érotiques et même intimistes, comme dans le poème conclusif, qui, par son repli mélancolique, annonce les Feuilles d'automne.

Poésie et liberté
La préface revendique les privilèges de la liberté dans l'art et joue de la provocation en qualifiant l'ouvrage de « livre inutile de pure poésie ».

Hugo semble en effet user de tous ses moyens de virtuose comme dans les célèbres Djinns, poème conçu comme un crescendo et un decrescendo ; l'Orient est ainsi prétexte aux jeux de l'imaginaire, à l'inventivité verbale et à la diversité rythmique qui, plus encore que dans Odes et Ballades, manifeste la rupture avec les formes classiques.

Cette fantaisie débridée et affichée ne doit pas cacher la double célébration qui domine le recueil : celle de la liberté grecque et celle de Napoléon. Le jeune Hugo s'éloigne ainsi du royalisme conservateur qui nourrissait ses premiers poèmes. La liberté dans l'art est indissociable d'une liberté de l'art revendiquée ici à travers la multiplicité des sujets (depuis l'histoire jusqu'à la fable), l'exaltation de la passion, l'imagination morbide…

La préface le proclamait : « en poésie, tout a droit de cité ».

Some regular prohibited products include: coloring, oil, gas, any risky waste, any flammable liquids, and toxic materials, automobile tires, automobile batteries, asbestos fibers, etc. Once more, always ask about a restricted items number. Placing these items in the particular dumpster will more than likely bring about an additional charge.

The Latest on China Boat Sinking: More divers at rescue site
A man watches rescuers work on the hull of a capsized cruise ship on the Yangtze River in Jianli in central China's Hubei province Tuesday June 2, 2015. Divers on Tuesday pulled survivors from inside the overturned cruise ship, state media said, giving some small hope to an apparently massive tragedy with well over 400 people still missing on the river.

(Chinatopix Via AP)
12:15 p.m. (0415 GMT)
More divers are being sent to join the rescue.
Thirteen divers were working at the disaster site Tuesday, and an additional 120 were supposed to have arrived overnight from the provincial capital of Wuhan.
According to the Hubei provincial military region commander, Chen Shoumin, 50 more divers from Guangzhou are due to arrive Wednesday.
The overturned ship has drifted about 3 kilometers (almost 2 miles) downstream on the Yangtze River before coming to rest close to shore, where fast currents and strong winds are making the rescue difficult.
11 a.m. (0300 GMT)
AccuWeather agency says showers, thunderstorms and potentially strong winds will continue in the region over the next 24-36 hours, making rescue efforts more challenging.
The rescue is ongoing in about 15 meter (50 feet) deep water of the Yangtze River, where the Eastern Star cruise ship overturned Monday night with 456 people aboard. Thirteen bodies have been pulled so far and 14 people rescued.
AccuWeather meteorologist Anthony Sagliani says a stalled front at the time of the sinking was causing numerous thunderstorms with gusty winds.
China's state media reported a cyclone with winds of up to 130 kilometers (80 miles) per hour was lashing the river at the time.
9:30 a.m. (0130 GMT)
Chinese state broadcaster CCTV revises the number people on board the cruise ship to 456 when it capsized on Monday night. Originally state media said 458 people — 406 passengers, five travel agency employees and a crew of 47 — were on board.
But CCTV cut that figure by one passenger and one crewmember. No reason was given for the change.
Amid continuing uncertainty about the fate of the more than 400 missing on the cruise ship that capsized in China's Yangtze River, state broadcaster CCTV announced Wednesday morning that it was suspending live broadcasts from the disaster site for technical reasons.
It did not elaborate. International media workers have also been kept away from the immediate area surrounding where workers are searching for bodies.

Lynn True is a New York based documentary filmmaker and co-founder of True Walker Productions. Her work has been broadcast internationally on networks such as PBS, Sundance Channel and ARTE, as well as at film festivals and other venues around the world. Past projects include LUMO, a feature-length documentary filmed in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which won a Student Academy Award and aired on PBS/P.O.V. in 2007. Lynn's next film, Summer Pasture, took her to the high grasslands of eastern Tibet where she documented a family of nomads whose pastoral way of life confronts rapid modernization. Called "enthralling" by The New York Times, Summer Pasture was nominated for a Film Independent Spirit Award, an IFP Gotham Independent Film Award, and won a Peabody Award. It was broadcast on PBS/Independent Lens in 2012. Lynn's last film, IN TRANSIT (made in collaboration with the late Albert Maysles), is a documentary portrait of America as seen through the stories of passengers aboard the country's busiest long-distance train route. IN TRANSIT premiered at the 2015 Tribeca Film Festival, winning the Special Jury Prize, and was later nominated for Outstanding Achievement in Direction from the Cinema Eye Honors. Lynn graduated from Brown University with a joint degree in Urban Studies and Architecture.

Schools and many offices often close for a full or half day on major Turkish holidays, which are as follows: January 1 (New Year's Day); April 23 (National Independence Day); May 1 (Labor and Solidarity Day); May 19 (Atatürk's Commemoration Day, celebrating his birthday and the day he landed in Samsun, starting the independence movement); August 30 (Zafer Bayramı, or Victory Day, commemorating the final Turkish victory over Greek forces in 1922, during Turkey's War of Independence); and October 29 (Cumhuriyet Bayramı, or Republic Day, celebrating Atatürk's proclamation of the Turkish republic in 1923—many businesses and government offices also close at midday, usually either 12:30 or 1, on the day before Republic Day). November 10, the anniversary of Atatürk's death, is not a full-day public holiday but is commemorated by a nationwide moment of silence at 9:05 am. Many provincial towns also hold celebrations to mark the anniversary of the date that the Greeks were driven out of the area during the Turkish War of Independence.
Turks also celebrate the two main Muslim religious holidays each year: the three-day Şeker Bayramı, marking the end of Ramadan (called "Ramazan" in Turkey) and the four-day Kurban Bayramı, which honors the prophet Ibrahim's (Abraham in the Old Testament) willingness to sacrifice his son to God. Because the Muslim year is based on the lunar calendar, the dates of the two holidays change every year, both moving earlier by 11 to 12 days each year. The precise timing may vary slightly according to the sighting of the moon. Many businesses and government offices close at midday, usually either 12:30 or 1 pm, on the day before the religious bayrams. In 2016, Şeker Bayramı is due to begin at midday on July 4 and last until the evening of July 7; in 2017 it will begin on June 25 and end on the 27th. Kurban Bayramı will begin at midday on September 11, 2016, and continue through the evening of September 15; in 2017 it will begin on August 31 and end on September 4th. A word of note: if a religious holiday takes up three or four days of a working week, the government will often declare the rest of the week an official holiday as well. However, such decisions are usually made less than a month before the holiday actually begins.


PHOENIX - For the first time in the history of the new US Airways, labor groups representing approximately 30,000 union members at the airline have joined together in a coalition to demand that management complete the merger that began nearly three years ago. Specifically, management needs to adhere to current labor contracts and reach new collective bargaining agreements that improve the wages, benefits and working conditions of US Airways employees. The following is a statement from the newly-formed US Airways Labor Coalition, which includes the union leaders for the pilots, flight attendants, customer service representatives, dispatchers, fleet service workers, mechanics, and all other labor groups at US Airways.
"US Airways management failed to work with labor from the beginning of this merger and has continued this practice for nearly three years, leading us to where we are now-a once promising airline with a plummeting stock price, consistent rankings at the bottom of the industry, and disgruntled employees. Instead of addressing the myriad of problems, management has done nothing but issue excuses to our investors, passengers and employees. The lack of leadership and know-how displayed by this management team is appalling and has forced us to take action.
"US Airways employees want to complete this merger, take advantage of the cost-saving synergies that it created, and live up to the expectations that management promised us, our investors and our passengers. The US Airways Labor Coalition will help us achieve our goals by creating a strong, unified voice for labor that management cannot ignore.
"With so much talk of future airline consolidation, we urge management teams across the industry to learn from the mistakes of US Airways' management and work with labor before, during and after the merger process. We have also put our own management team on notice that if they plan to participate in a future transaction, they must throw out their anti-labor tactics and work with us to succeed."
The US Airways Labor Coalition represents approximately 30,000 employees from the two merged carriers- America West and US Airways. The pilots are represented by the Air Line Pilots Association, Int'l. (ALPA). The flight attendants are represented by the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA). The customer service representatives are represented by the Airline Customer Service Employee Association-IBT/CWA. The fleet service, mechanic and related, and maintenance training specialist employees are represented by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM). The dispatchers, flight crew training instructors and simulator engineers are represented by the Transport Workers Union of America (TWU).

Another useful feature of styles is their ability to provide the backing instruments for a particular musical genre. In this next piece, the Square Dance from the musical "Oklahoma" by Rodgers and Hammerstein, we use a country style to provide the rhythm section for an orchestral arrangement of the song. The Edit Instrument feature is again used to modify the instrumentation in the style to provide the required orchestral instruments. Listen out for the finish of the song where we hear one of the style endings, and feel free to join in with the Yahoos from the Special Effects Unit!
The Farmer And The Cowman
The WERSI organ offers a comprehensive selection of accompaniments or Styles as they are more commonly known. Styles are continuously repeating rhythm sequences comprising drums, bass and a set of instruments appropriate to a particular musical genre. They derive their harmonies from the chords held down on the lower keyboard. Over the years styles have progressed from relatively simple one or two bar patterns to more elaborate rhythm sequences, some specific to particular tunes, with Variations, Intros, Endings, Breaks and Fill-Ins. Their applications range from providing the sole accompaniment for a melody at one end of the spectrum to their inclusion as an essential component of a completely integrated orchestral arrangement at the other. In the following examples we highlight the latter application since it demonstrates more of the instrument's features and capabilities.
The accompaniment section of the instrument is implemented by a package known as the Open Art Arranger (OAA), a unique feature of which is the ability to edit the instruments, sequences and rhythms of the style, and even create entirely new accompaniments. In this first piece from the musical "Jesus Christ Superstar" by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice we use the Edit Instrument feature to change the instrumentation in the style so that this together with the keyboard registrations now forms the complete orchestration for the song.
I Don't Know How To Love Him
Some organists, particularly those with professional training, prefer not to use styles on the basis that their monotonous regularity limits the individuality and creativity of the performance. In truth however, no matter how competent a musician might be, there is only so much that can be achieved with two hands and two feet. A style can be very effective in providing what keyboard registrations and playing technique cannot, as in this jazz classic by Henry Creamer and Turner Layton. Here we use a style to provide all the instruments in a Dixieland jazz band, initially as backing for the individual solo improvisations, then in a later section for the complete ensemble. The Edit Sequence feature is used to modify the instrument and drum patterns in the breaks and fill-ins to better fit the construction of the song.
Way Down Yonder In New Orleans
As well as the facility to change the instrumentation and sequences in a style, the OAA also provides a Style Record facility to create entirely new styles by enabling the drum, bass and instrument parts to be specified and recorded individually from the keyboard. This process is especially useful if a particularly unique arrangement is required, as in this final piece by Ravel where the orchestration is quite specific to the music. Here we use the Style Record feature to create four variations of a style, each one becoming more elaborate as the piece progresses, and also a suitable ending for a crash, bang, wallop finish!

It is part of the json file.
This JSON file contains lists and some of the attributes contains dictionary.
1 What is the most efficient way to normalize this data?
2 If I want to convert 'testType' into data frame with meta data of 'testId' across entire JSON file, how can I do it?
I use this command as
import json
import pandas as pd
from pandas.io.json import json_normalize

with open('test.json') as f:
    d=json.load(f)

type=json_normalize(data=d[:]['testType'],
                            meta=['testId'])

and it came out with TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str
or if I use
import json
import pandas as pd
from pandas.io.json import json_normalize

with open('test.json') as f:
    d=json.load(f)

type=json_normalize(data=d[0]['testType'],
                            meta=['testId'])

I can convert it to data frame, but it can only give me first element in the array instead of everything.

A: You can probably do something like:

The phablet did become rather popular for a while as this particular niche device straddled the middle line between a smartphone and a tablet. However, Royole has something totally different in mind with the introduction of the Royole FlexPai, where it boasts of the second generation Cicada Wing fully flexible display while running on the customized Water OS. It can be a smartphone when you want it to, and be easily transformed by folding it open as a tablet. The choice lies in your hands.
Nubia has come up with some decent smartphones in the past (although those never really managed to shake the world quite like other more notable brands), and most recently they have shaken things up with the introduction of the Nubia Alpha. The Nubia Alpha is much more than a concept: in fact, it is going to go on sale sometime before the curtains fall on 2019. What makes the Nubia Alpha so special? The striking massive, flexible display is what makes it so impressive at first glance, wrapping close to half of its segmented band, while offering all of the essential functions of a smartphone to the user right at their fingertips.

SOUTH AFRICA TABLET 2: Table Valley seems like Paradise
by TimeTraveler
Leendert Janz (later spelt Janssen) and Nicolaas Proot had resided in Table Valley more than five months, and they could therefore speak from experience of its capabilities.
The Haarlem, one of the finest of the East India Company's ships, had put into Table Bay for fresh water and whatever else could be obtained, and in a gale had been driven on the Blueberg beach.
The strongly timbered vessel held together, and the crew succeeded in saving not only their own effects but the ship's stores and the cargo.
The neighbourhood of the wreck was not a desirable site for a camping-ground, and therefore when the Company's goods were secured against the weather, and a small fort had been constructed in which a few soldiers could be left, Janssen and Proot with the rest of the crew removed to Table Valley.
Close by a stream of pure sweet water, on a site somewhere near the centre of the present city of Capetown, they threw up a bank of earth for protection, and emcamped within it.
They had saved some vegetable seeds and garden tools which chanced to be on board the wreck, and soon a plot of ground was placed under cultivation. Cabbages, pumpkins, turnips, onions and various other vegetables throve as well as they had seen in any part of the world, and among them were man who had visited many lands.
The Hottentots came in friendship to trade with them, and brought horned cattle and sheep in such numbers for sale that they were amply supplied with meat for themselves and had sufficient to spare for a ship that put in with eighty or ninety sick.
Game in abundance fell under their guns, and fish was equally plentiful.
They were here in spring and early summer, when the climate is perhaps the most delightful in the world.
At length, after they had spent between five and six months very happily, the return fleet of 1648, under commandant of Wollebrant Geleynsen, put into Table Bay. The cargo of the Haarlem was conveyed to Salt River, and thence re-shipped for Europe.
And when the fleet set sail, it bore away from South Africa men whose reminiscences were of a pleasant and fruitful land, in which they had enjoyed health and peace and plenty.
The document which Janssen and Proot laid before the directors of the East India Company took its tone from their experience. It pointed out many and great advantages, and overlooked all dificulties in the way of forming a settlement in Table Valley.

World Social Forum on Migration set to begin in Mexico City
From 2.-4. November 2018, social movements and activists from around the world will be meeting in Mexico City for the 8th World Social Forum on Migration (WSFM). Under the banner, "Migrate, resist, build, transform. Migrating together, migrating the system," the WSFM is seen as a key moment for the grassroots migrants to articulate their position on various issues within the migration discourse as well as build solidarity with migrants in different global regions.
The WSFM has developed from the World Social Forum movement, a global showcasing of urgent social and political issues and positions by social activists, progressives and sectors through plenaries and workshops. With the growing phenomenon of international migration, the WSFM was formed through coordinated initiatives of migrant groups and advocates that have participated in the WSF.
Karibu partner Asia Pacific Mission for Migrants (APMM) sits as a member of the international committee of the WSFM, and will be bringing grassroots migrant leaders from across the Global South to Mexico City with the support of the Karibu Foundation. The activists and migrants from the Global South will be contributing to the WSFM by participating in centralized plenaries of the WSFM, organizing centralized and decentralized workshops and endeavors during the WSFM, and helping shape the general statements that might come out of the WSFM.
APMM Workshops at the WSFM in Mexico City
The following activities and workshops will be organized by APMM in partnership with grassroots migrants organizations and service institutions in Latin America, Middle East, Asia Pacific and Africa:
Title: Half the Sky: Marriage migrants on citizenship, empowerment and family reunification. Partner organization: Alliance of Marriage Migrant Organizations for Rights and Empowerment (AMMORE) and Movement Against Rape and Incest (MARI), Asia Pacific Women Forum on Law and Development (Thailand) and APMM.
While marriage migration is a phenomenon being discussed in Asia Pacific, much has yet to be tackled and explored in other global regions like the Americas and Europe. With citizenship laws becoming more restrictive, what are the problems confronting marriage migrants and how does the restriction of such policies affect their rights, their movement and most especially, the state of their families? Through this workshop, (a) the issue of marriage migration will be thoroughly discussed highlighting the current policy architecture in relation to immigration and how this impacts on marriage migrants and their families, (b) other problems confronting marriage migrants such as domestic and family violence, as well as (c) the experiences and practice in organizing marriage migrants, launching campaigns and engaging in policy advocacy. A tapestry highlighting the issues and demands of marriage migrants will be made to creatively conclude the workshop.
Title: We are Workers, Not Slaves. Partner organizations: Asian Migrants Coordinating Body Hong Kong (AMCB-HK), Miredes International (Ecuador), Tenaganita (Malaysia) and Movimiento Migrantes Mesoamericano (Mexico). Duration of workshop: half-day.
The phenomenon of modern-day slavery has beleaguered migrant workers for decades. The workshop will aim to: (a) tackle the various conditions in which migrants have experienced modern slavery, i.e. foreign domestic workers, workers rights and working conditions, survivors of labor trafficking; (b) identify factors and actors that contribute to this phenomenon highlighting the accountability of both origin and destination country governments to protecting rights and welfare of migrants; and (c) launch a campaign to end modern-day slavery.
Title: Empowering, Unionizing Temporary Migrants. Partner organization: First Union (New Zealand) and Frente Unido de Inmigrantes Ecuatorianos (Ecuador/USA), Confederat Nationale des Travailleros de Senegal (CNTS), Migrante International (Philippines), Roots for Equity (Pakistan) and APMM. Duration of workshop: half-day.
Migrant-local worker solidarity is an objective that the APMM works hard to achieve. In recent years, it has been in discussion with trade unions in destination countries as well as grassroots migrants on the practice and further exploration of organizing migrant workers in trade unions. In this workshop, we hope to: (a) highlight the existing practice and experience of trade unions in organizing migrant workers; (b) identify challenges and problems that hinder migrant trade unionism; and (c) develop action plans and resolutions that will address such challenges and begin coordination among trade unions and migrant groups in enhancing migrant trade unionism across the globe. Placards and other visuals will be made to highlight the unities reached by the participants in this workshop.
Title: The Situation of the Disappeared, the Undocumented, the Criminalized. Partner organization: Interfaith Network for the Rights of Migrants (INFORM-Asia) and La Cumbre de Caravanas Migrantes y Madres de migrantes desaparecidos (Mexico), Bangladeshi Ovibashi Mohila Sramik Association and Filipino Migrants Center (USA).
In the current global discussion on international migration, the situation of disappeared migrants, the undocumented migrants and the current move of many governments to criminalise migrants whether undocumented or not, has to be thoroughly tackled and addressed. The absence of laws and mechanisms to protect and uphold the rights of migrants has led to the growing number of undocumented migrants, disappeared migrants, even mysterious deaths of migrants, and cases of arrest, detention and deportation of migrants (ADD). This workshop aims to: (a) understand the situation of undocumented migrants and the reality of irregular migration; (b) know about the conditions surrounding disappearance of migrants in Latin America and the current campaign of mothers and families calling for justice; (c) tackle the current criminalization of migrants in destination countries; and (d) develop a campaign that shall showcase the calls and campaigns in relation to these issues.
Title: Going Beyond the GCM: The Migrants' Stance on the Global Compact on Migration. Partner organization: International Migrants Alliance (IMA), Churches Witnessing with Migrants, Immigrant Womens Speak-out (Australia) and Movimiento Migrante Mesoamericano (Mexico). Duration of workshop: half-day.
This workshop will highlight the various demands that came out of the four previous workshops as organizations, advocates and other stakeholders discuss the current engagement on the Global Compact on Safe, Regular and Orderly Migration. In this workshop: (a) discussion will revolve around the insights of migrant groups on the GCM and their experience of involvement in the process; (b) a global migrant campaign beyond the GCM will be developed highlighting the various demands that came out of the four previous workshops as well as other demands that will come out during this workshop; and (c) strategies of engagement in global platforms and processes will be identified through a coordinated action plan.
The Karibu Foundation is also present in Mexico City at the WSFM.

SITTWE, Myanmar (AP) — The first thing Khalid was asked when census workers entered his home in Myanmar's troubled state of Rakhine was his ethnicity. In a clear, confident voice, the father of eight responded "Rohingya." The workers, most of them school teachers, said thank you, turned around and left.
But the inclusion of questions about race and ethnicity are seen as inflammatory — especially in Rakhine, which is home to an estimated 1.3 million Rohingya Muslims. Though many were born to families who arrived generations ago, the government considers them to be illegal immigrants from Bangladesh and denies them citizenship and related rights.
In the last two years members of the religious minority have been the target of bloody attacks by Buddhist mobs. Up to 280 have been killed and another 140,000 forced to flee their home. Most are now living in hot, dirty camps on the outskirts of the state capital, Sittwe.
Hours before census workers started their task Sunday, presidential spokesman Ye Htut announced that Rohingya would have to refer to themselves as "Bengalis" if they wanted to be counted.
That drew expressions of "deep concern" by the U.N. Population Fund — which spent years helping the government prepare for the count. It said it had been promised everyone would be allowed to identify themselves by whatever ethnicity they chose.
The about-face could spark new tensions, it said, and threatened to undermine the entire process.
"Ninety nine out of 100 Rohingya families who identified themselves as Rohingya, were not registered," said 29-year old Mohamad Roshi, who was working as a volunteer for census collectors.
Tensions have been rising over the census for weeks, as ethnic Buddhists — worried that the census would serve to legitimize the presences of Rohingya — have hung Buddhist flags on almost every home and office in Rakhine as a form of protest.
Hundreds of local and international staff have since been evacuated.

The GDE Group was created in the early 1980s to raise funds in the international markets for the development of hundreds of companies in Guangdong Province. By late 1998, however, GDE faced an immediate need to restructure more than $5 billion in debt for international lenders and bondholders. Goldman Sachs was asked to advise the Guangdong provincial government on the restructuring because it had demonstrated unique capabilities during the privatization of China Telecom, a huge undertaking that required a deep understanding of China's culture and business practices. The GDE restructuring was no less monumental a task.

The Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR), commonly known as the STAR Tollway, is a two-to-four-lane  controlled-access toll expressway in the province of Batangas in the Philippines. It is operated by STAR Infrastructure Development Corporation (STAR – IDC). The expressway is signed as E2 of the Philippine expressway network, alongside the South Luzon Expressway and unspecified portions of the Skyway. The expressway starts at the interchange with the Pan-Philippine Highway and the South Luzon Expressway in Santo Tomas and runs southward, near Diversion Road, to Batangas City. It passes through the cities and municipalities of Tanauan, Malvar, Lipa, San Jose, and Ibaan.

The expressway was opened on 2001, with its first segment built between Santo Tomas and Lipa. In 2008, it was extended toward Batangas City, and in June 2010, the South Luzon Expressway was connected to the STAR Tollway, further shortening travel time between Manila and Batangas.

With increasing traffic demand in the Batangas City – Bauan area and the Batangas Bay area, proposals to extend the expressway are laid out to decongest the existing routes through those areas. Two projects are proposed to extend the expressway to barangay Pinamucan, within Batangas City, and to the municipality of Bauan. The STAR Tollway is treated as a separate expressway despite being connected with SLEX since June 2010.

Route description

The STAR Tollway parallels most of the route of the President Jose P. Laurel Highway, which spurs off from the Maharlika Highway at Santo Tomas towards Lipa and Batangas City, and the Ibaan-Batangas City segment of the Batangas-Quezon Road. The road mostly traverses rural barangays of the cities and municipalities it passes and also overlooks several mountains.

The STAR Tollway starts as the physical extension of South Luzon Expressway past the overpass with the abandoned Philippine National Railways (PNR) branch line to Batangas City and an access road for Light Industry and Science Park III at Santo Tomas. Until June 2010, the toll road ended at Santo Tomas Exit. Spanning , the road widens for a short distance as it crosses the San Juan River and enters Tanauan, where the Sto. Tomas toll plaza is located, before narrowing back to two lanes. The road meets with Tanauan Exit, which serves the city proper of Tanauan. Past Tanauan Exit, STAR Tollway descends on a scenic curve before ascending on approach to Malvar. Entering Malvar, the road mostly passes rural areas, mostly containing large coconut plantations and small residential areas. Also, within Malvar, Mount Maculot can be seen on the west of the road and Mount Malarayat can be sighted on the east. Afterwards, it enters Lipa, and the road gradually curving before approaching Lipa Exit, which provides access to the city proper and to the nearby towns of Mataasnakahoy, Cuenca, and Alitagtag. The exit once served as the tollway's southern terminus until 2007, when STAR Tollway was extended southward towards Batangas City.

Past Lipa Exit, STAR Tollway is mostly dual carriageway, until it narrows in approach to Batangas City. Spanning , this segment was a two-lane expressway from its opening in 2008, until the second roadway opened on 2014. The roadways of this segment is concrete, with the southbound roadway the former two-lane expressway, that has been in bad condition with increased traffic demand. The road mostly runs through the rural barangays of Lipa. Then, it curves slightly on approach to San Jose and enters Ibaan. At Ibaan Exit, the road intersects San Jose-Ibaan Road at a diamond interchange where the expressway passes above grade. Past Ibaan Exit, STAR Tollway mostly runs an arcing route, traversing several rural barangays of Ibaan and paralleling the Batangas-Quezon Road from Ibaan to Batangas City. The road narrows back to two lanes at Sabang Bridge on the Ibaan-Batangas City boundary. The approach to Batangas City from Ibaan was a site of a fatal head-on collision between a jeep and a bus, that killed 7 in January 2011. The road becomes a 3-lane road, with a concrete Jersey barrier dividing the road, ascending in a cutting before following a straight course on rolling terrain up to the STAR Tollway's southern terminus at Balagtas Rotunda. The road widens at the Batangas toll plaza (also known as Balagtas toll plaza), narrows back to 3 lanes, and ends at the Balagtas Rotunda, a roundabout with Jose P. Laurel Highway and Batangas Port Diversion Road.

History

In an effort to link the different Southern Tagalog provinces to the National Capital Region, the government with the cooperation of the Provincial Government of Batangas and with the technical and country developmental assistance of the Government of Japan through the Japan Official Development Assistance, started the development of the STAR Tollway.

The STAR Tollway I, from Santo Tomas to Lipa, was opened in 2001; STAR Tollway II, from Lipa to Batangas City, opened in 2008. It was opened as part of the Road Development Project of the government, linking the South Luzon Expressway to STAR Tollway onwards to the Batangas Port in Batangas City. The travel time from Manila to Batangas City was reduced to 2 hours when STAR Tollway II opened. The STAR Tollway Project I and II were funded by Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and implemented by the Department of Public Works and Highways – Urban Roads Project Office (DPWH – URPO).

The STAR Tollway is now under the supervision of the Toll Regulatory Board (TRB) and is being maintained by Star Tollway Corporation, a subsidiary of San Miguel Corporation.

Renaming
On February 9, 2004, Batangas's 3rd District Congresswoman Victoria Hernandez-Reyes authored House Bill 2753, or also known as the "Act of Renaming the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR) to Apolinario Mabini Superhighway (AMS)." On May 15, 2007, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo signed and approved House Bill 2753 to rename the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road to Apolinario Mabini Superhighway, after the Filipino revolutionary and Batangas native Apolinario Mabini, and it was made into a law called the Republic Act 9462 (RA 9462).

Redevelopment

Announced by the concessionaire, STAR-Infrastructure Development Corporation (SIDC), on May 16, 2013, the STAR Tollway Upgrading and Rehabilitation Project began in July 2013 as announced by SIDC president Melvin Nazareno. Under the project, the expressway undergone several upgrade and rehabilitation on its roads and facilities in order to cope with the traffic demand of the expressway. The expressway redevelopment included asphalting the Santo Tomas – Lipa segment, upgrading the Lipa – Batangas City segment to a four-lane divided expressway, improvements on the toll collection system, installation of closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras for traffic monitoring, and addition of lighting on some segments. The expansion of the Lipa–Batangas City segment commenced in June 2013, and finished in June 2015 with adding of lights.

Sabang Bridge, which connects the town of Ibaan and Batangas City, was closed to all traffic in December 2016 to repair damage of Typhoon Nina (Nock-ten), leaving Ibaan Exit to be the temporary south end of the expressway. On August 15, 2017, a partial re-opening of Sabang Bridge was conducted for Class 1 vehicles and on August 20, 2017, it was re-opened to all vehicle classes resuming full operations to and from the Batangas Exit.

Future

Pinamucan Bypass

A  extension of STAR Tollway, is proposed by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Batangas as two priority projects that will benefit the province as well as Mimaropa. The proposed extension will increase economic growth in the Batangas Bay area and reduce congestion on existing roads in Batangas City. The project will cost , and will pass through the barangays of Tinga Itaas, Tinga Labac, San Pedro, Dumantay, Sampaga, Sirang Lupa, and San Isidro, all in Batangas City. The project, dubbed the Pinamucan Bypass Road is expected to be completed before 2021. Right of way acquisition and construction work began on August 21, 2018, with funding from the Batangas 2nd District engineering office.

Bauan extension

Another extension to Bauan, called the Batangas City–San Pascual–Bauan Road is proposed by the Department of Public Works and Highways as an alternative to the existing national road between Batangas City and Bauan. The project is expected to decongest the existing national road, whose traffic demand reached beyond capacity due to roadside establishments, industrial areas, and the Batangas Port, and increase economic development in the Batangas City–Bauan area. The proposed alignment of the toll road will start at the present terminus of STAR Tollway at barangay Balagtas, pass through the northern rural barangays of Batangas City and San Pascual, and end at the national road to Mabini at barangay Manghinao in Bauan. The proposed toll road is being constructed as an at-grade bypass only, connecting with Diversion Road, with right of way acquisition and construction works started on February 21, 2018.

Toll

The whole expressway employs a closed system, where motorists are charged based on the kilometers travelled from the entry to exit point vehicle class. Toll collection is done upon exit at STAR Tollway, SLEX, or MCX or at Skyway's Main toll plaza.

The expressway fully implements an electronic toll collection (ETC) system, the Autosweep RFID, using RFID technology. Such ETC system is shared with Skyway, SLEX, NAIAX, TPLEX, and MCX.

Services
The Southern Tagalog Arterial Road currently has three service areas, all of which are Petron stations, with two on the northbound and one on the southbound. The service areas also provide ETC reloading for Autosweep RFID users.

For years, clinical trial sponsors and operations managers were hesitant to explore new ways of reaching out to potential study participants. New platforms of patient engagement, such as direct-to-patient communications or dedicated clinical study websites, were viewed as impractical or unnecessary.
Today the industry increasingly finds itself in fierce competition to quickly find more and more of the "right" patients. This has led to an increased desire to develop bold innovations, efficiencies, and pilot programs that can benefit not just patients, but all parties in the clinical trial experience. Yet frequently forgotten in the afterglow of racing to bring these new ideas to light is the most critical and challenging piece of the puzzle: creating a platform to successfully operationalize and distribute these innovations.
I'd like to share some thoughts about what we've learned over the years in taking new innovations over the finish line and into full implementation.
Introducing a new patient recruitment initiative is a complex and delicate process. Sharing your vision of the program with the clinical research study community is bound to generate a number of questions and comments from just about everyone involved – from senior management to site personnel. While not every question will have an immediate and satisfying answer, understanding the types of questions being asked can help you identify and address potential program deficiencies in advance. From the outset, effective communication with study personnel about your new program will be critical to its adoption and future success.
Clearly communicate why this new program is necessary for recruitment success.
Identify the recruitment challenges that it is specifically meant to address.
Share why you believe the program will ultimately make the process easier / more efficient.
Assign personnel / departments who will help oversee key program infrastructures (e.g., technology, communications, logistics).
Be clear as to what you expect from each user in terms of program implementation and proficiency.
Create a contingency plan that will address user non-compliance.
Create comprehensive training materials and program support services that are readily accessible on-site.
Schedule refresher sessions to review the program to-date and update users on any recent changes / upgrades.
Appoint dedicated program specialists who will be responsible for training new personnel.
Ask questions that identify and address not only current program functionalities, but also additional functionalities that could be implemented.
Never stop improving: Schedule regular meetings with managing departments to discuss timelines for implementing program upgrades.
