The Internet has become an essential part of our daily lives. It is becoming our basic means to access knowledge and to communicate with each other, as well as the new arteries for commerce. It holds great promise for strengthening democracy, for building the solidarity economy and for ensuring cultural diversity. However while this is occurring, the Internet is being coopted and controlled for private gain by a few corporations; data mining tools are processing our personal data in ways over which we have no say or knowledge; the Internet is being militarized and new digital technologies are transforming our world into a super surveillance society. What was supposed to liberate is being employed to chain and control us!
The World Social Forum (WSF) that first took place in 2001 in Porto Alegre, Brazil, and has continued since then, represents, as stated in the WSF Charter, a different kind of globalization than that "commanded by the large multinational corporations and by the governments and international institutions at the service of those corporations' interests". The Charter enshrines the values that "globalization in solidarity will prevail as a new stage in world history. This will respect universal human rights of all citizens - men and women - of all nations and the environment and will rest on democratic international systems and institutions at the service of social justice, equality and the sovereignty of peoples".
A group of organizations that believe that "Another World is Possible" have come together to create an Internet Social Forum that will carry forward the vision of the WSF Charter to the governance of the Internet. It will pursue a people's agenda, challenging the neoliberal governance agenda to give corporations a veto over public policy, the latest and the most symbolic form of which is the WEF-based Net Mundial Initiative.
This workshop will present the status of the Internet Social Forum, explain the need for it and its modalities. It will explore how such a Forum can collaboratively define the Internet we want and how to build it; and also how it will begin a process to develop a 'People's Internet Manifesto'.
Developing a people's agenda for the Internet – as proposed here – and then implementing it, is of essential importance for the social sustainability aspect of the sustainable development process.


A Taste of "What Am I Hungry For?"
On January 7, 2015, I offered a free teleclass to give people a taste of a 16-week mentored course I've developed called "What Am I Hungry For?" that I offered for the first time in February 2015.
Our felt experience of our bodies is at the root of our relationship to ourselves and to the world.
And so I decided to present a Wholebody Focusing-style Body Attunement below as an opportunity for participants to experience a felt sense of the spaciousness and support that is already here for each of us - right now - in the midst of these difficult challenges.
Your felt experience of your body is at the root of your relationship to yourself and to the world.
Please click on the image below to view the introduction (about 8 minutes).
I know that it takes a lot of courage to delve into these issues!
So I do hope that, whether or not you choose to take the full class, you find this attunement of real use to you in bringing a sense of spaciousness and support to your own challenges around food, weight and body image.
This class is being offered again this year, beginning February 7, 2016.
If you would like to know more about it - including how the participants from last year experienced it - then click this link to visit the description page for the class, which gives full details.
And if you have not yet read the article I wrote offering a further sense of my point of view in developing this class, please click here to read it.
P.S.: This year, I will be giving people a taste of the course by presenting the first class for free. If you'd like to be notified of the date, time and other details sign up here.

In this session, Judan Ali demonstrates to the National Coaching team the importance of breaking down the playing areas into zones
"Developing a psychological and cultural bond between each player and the coaches is the difference between success and failure."
PRINCPLES OF DEFENDING :
Defending Principle 1 – Pressure/Delay
To prevent the first attacker penetrating by the previously mentioned methods, the first defender must apply pressure to the ball, or delay the penetration by preventing the shot, pass or dribble.
Defending Principle 2 – Cover/Support/Depth in Defense
To negate the options provided for the first attacker, the second defenders must give cover to the first defenderThis means that the second defenders will cut off passing lanes and will be ready to take the loose ball as the first attacker tries to get past the first defender.
Defending Principle 3 – Concentration
To avoid being stretched, the defenders will tend to concentrate their numbers in the dangerous area in front of goal.They will get into this area by means of recovery runs which will tend to get them between the ball and the goal.
Defending Principle 4 – Balance
In order to retain defensive balance or shape, the third defenders will balance off the weak side of the attack, and will pass off runners if possible. Alternatively, they may track and have someone else maintain defensive balance by taking their place.
Defending Principle 5 – Compactness
To counter this, defenders will try to compact the vertical distance allowed the attackers by pushing up their back and midfield lines towards the opponent's goal, effectively reducing the on-side attacking space.This also has the effect of keeping small spaces between the defensive lines, making it difficult for the opponent to play through.The goalkeeper must be considered in this movement, having the job of reducing the space between himself and the last defender.
Defensive Principle 6 – Patience/Discipline/Restraint
To avoid being "sold" by a creative mood, defenders will employ the principle of restraint or patience, waiting for the attacker to make a mistake, before attempting to win the ball.
PRINCIPLES OF ATTACKING :
Attacking Principle 1 - Penetration
When in possession of the ball, the first attacker should ask himself, "Can I score?". If the answer is yes, he will shoot and penetrate the defense by shooting. If he cannot score, he will look to make a pass which will penetrate the defense. If this is not on, he will then attempt to penetrate by dribbling or running
Attacking Principle 2 – Support
In order to maintain possession of the ball, the first attacker will need good support from the second and third attacker(s).Simply put, the second and third attackers must provide forward backward and sideways options to the first attacker (player on the ball).
Attacking Principle 3 – Width
In order to stretch the opponent's defensive shape, attackers will use the width of the field to tempt them away from covering the dangerous area in front of goal
Attacking Principle 4 – Mobility
Attackers will make runs into different areas of the field in order to draw defenders out of their positions, trying to unbalance the defense
Attacking Principle 5 – Vertical Stretching
Attackers will try to stretch the space between defensive lines, by playing as deep as possible and off the shoulder of the last defender. The intention is to stretch the opponent vertically.Vertical stretching can also be achieved by players behind the ball dropping off to create space ahead of themselves.
Attacking Principle 6 – Improvisation/Creativity/Surprise
Attackers will try to break down defenses by employing the element of surprise. Tools such as back-heels, overhead kicks, diving headers, feints and fakes are all used for this purpose.

A classic crime novel by one of the most highly regarded exponents of the genre.
The combined efforts of Superintendent Hanslet and Inspector Waghorn brought no answer and the case was dropped. It was only after another equally baffling murder had been committed that Dr Lancelot Priestley's orderly and imaginative deductions began to make the connections that would solve this extraordinary case.


Having won both races in 2016, Nuun-Sigma Sport-London headed out to Mallorca last weekend for the Semana Masters Mallorca (Mallorca Masters Week) with a strong 9-man team. This years' field included strong teams from Mallorca, mainland Spain, Portugal, Germany and a greater British team presence in Southdown Bikes-Casco Pet, Morvelo-Basso and Rhino Velo Racing.
The Masters Week kicked off on Monday 16th with the Copa Europa Masters – a 84km kermesse-style road race in Palma. With perfect racing conditions and light winds the racing was fast and attacking. On the 8th of 10 laps a small breakaway was allowed a modest advantage which contained a strong British contingent.
Finishing on the sea-front in Palma, Ken Buckley (guesting Nuun-Sigma Sport) powered to claim the Masters 30 title with Chris Pook (Rhino Velo Racing) placing 3rd. The breakaway was essentially caught on the finish line with Nuun-Sigma Sport's Tom Hargreaves (defending) winning the bunch sprint to take 7th. A strong ride in the break from Simon McNamara paid off taking 4th and the Masters 40 title. Rhino Velo's Stuart Glover completed the top 10.
Tuesday 17th saw the start of the challenging four-stage Vuelta Masters Mallorca in Cala d'Or with a 98km road stage. The stage win and leaders jersey went Rhino Velo's Chris Pook with Nuun-Sigma Sport's Tom Hargreaves sprinting to 2nd.
Wednesday 18th – the queen stage. A 106km road stage which headed into the mountains near Pollenca. As Rhino Velo, containing former World Champion Colin Sturgess, rode strongly for the majority of the stage, it ultimately came down to the main climb of the Col de sa Bataia where Nuun-Sigma Sport rode a perfect team ride to place Chris McNamara, Rob Moore (defending) and Tom Hargreaves into the selection over the climb, joined by Rhino Velo's Matt Garthwaite and Southdown's Simon NcNamara.
The stage was won by Portugal's Andre Filipe however Hargreaves claimed the leaders jersey taking yet another 2nd on the stage. Strong team riding saw Martin Lonie (guesting Nuun-Sigma Sport-London) winning both intermediate sprints to take the points leaders jersey.
Thursday 19th – the decisive 8km individual time trial around Puerto Pollensa. In very wet conditions, once again Rob Moore rode to victory and into yellow beating teammate McNamara by 5 seconds and Rhino Velo's Garthwaite by a further 4 seconds. A very impressive ride by Tom Hargreaves saw him finish 8th on the stage.
Friday 20th – the final 103km road stage in Alcudia. With three riders in the top four and two leaders jerseys, it was Nuun-Sigma Sport's to lose. Attacking riding from Southdowns, Rhino Velo and the Portugese team attempted to split the race however a solid team performance secured the green jersey in the second of two intermediate sprints and nullified any breakaways. Southdown's Steve Calland sprinted to 2nd on the stage behind the German Vladi Riha.
The final classification saw Moore crowned two-time winner with teammates NcNamara and Hargreaves finishing 2nd and 4th respectively. Rhino Velo's Garthwaite took the 3rd podium step.
Nuun-Sigma Sport-London claimed the green points leaders jersey, 1st team on GC, 1st Master 30 and 40 on GC and 1st foreign rider.
Team owner/manager of Nuun-Sigma Sport-London Cameron Fraser said of this years' race "We are delighted to return to Mallorca once again for this superbly well organised week of racing. It was difficult to see how we could better our performance last year, especially due to the number of other British outfits fielding strong teams and the general level of riding being higher. We have had an unlucky season with Chris (McNamara) contracting pneumonia in March and Rob (Moore) crashing heavily in June however we have all pulled together, recovered, trained and prepared for this event, our last road race of the 2017 season.
Respect to the other British teams and individual riders who kept pushing and challenging us all the way to the finish line. There was a competitive vibe during the race but friendly off the bike and we shouldn't forget that we are all representing British cycling on the international stage.


Coming-of-age stories follow certain beats. There's the walk through school, meeting some eyes and not others, often with a monologue in voice-over introducing us to this young person's world. There's an inspirational figure, sometimes two; this person, while flawed, challenges and cherishes the protagonist. There's often a brief glimpse of childhood, some formative moment—we see the even-younger hero as they meet a future boyfriend, or declare what they'll be when they grow up, or watch as their parents fight and one drives away for good. There are dances and dust-ups and, ultimately, lessons learned. There is warmth and there is triumph. The Hate U Give, adapted by Audrey Wells from Angie Thomas' bestselling young-adult novel and directed by George Tillman Jr., hits all these beats, but it is far from ordinary or expected. Starr Carter moves through a coming-of-age story, but her high school saga is violently disrupted by another kind of narrative. The comfortable nature of the first makes plain the unspeakable horror of the second; the trauma of the second makes the warmth, and especially the triumph, all the sweeter.
That's not to say that this is two films in one. First Thomas, and now Wells and Tillman, make sure that Starr's story coheres, despite the shots that ring out. The film opens with a scene from her childhood, referenced but not witnessed in the novel: "Big Mav" Carter (Russell Hornsby) sits his young children down for a lesson, like he's teaching them to look both ways before crossing the street. He tells them, as his wife (Regina Hall) cradles their baby, to keep their hands on the dashboard, to do whatever the officer says, to know their rights but to be safe. Then he hands them the Black Panther 10-Point Program and tells them to memorize it. There will be a quiz.
Years later, Starr (Amandla Stenberg), Seven (Lamar Johnson), and baby Sekani (TJ Wright) remember that conversation. It's there, percolating in Starr's memory, as she walks the halls of her predominantly white private high school, code-switching so that "Williamson Starr" will be accepted by her classmates. And it's easily called to mind when, leaving a party with childhood friend Khalil (Algee Smith), they're pulled over by a cop. She keeps her hands on the dashboard. Khalil does not. He reaches for a hairbrush, and it costs him his life.
This is a film that's tense from its earliest moments and tragic shortly thereafter, but never does it feel gratuitously punishing. Starr has to keep living her life, and so the audience lives it with her. Nor does it ever become self-serious, because it's always rooted in this family and those in its orbit. Tillman's study of the Carters' life is filled with casual, comfortable detail, a texture that becomes richer when they're in crisis. Waking up from a nightmare, Starr sees her father; he's been waiting for the nightmare, he has a trash can ready for the moment she vomits. The framing, the staging, the production design all help to create this texture, but Tillman rightly entrusts the bulk of the storytelling to his uniformly excellent cast.
Draw a name from a hat, and that actor does a remarkable job—Karan Kendrick, excellent; Rhonda Johnson Dents, excellent; Dominique Fishback, excellent—but the top-lined cast anchors the film with tremendous grace and thoughtfulness. Hall, Hornsby, Johnson, and Issa Rae all lend the film weight and a quiet, lived-in quality, but much of Tillman's film rests on Stenberg's shoulders, and she proves more than equal to the task. Through Stenberg, we watch Starr struggle to juggle two lives; cope when one is turned upside-down; attempt to manage her own trauma, grief, and fear; and ultimately find her footing, her power, and her voice. It's the kind of performance rightly called brave: simple, emotionally vulnerable, detailed and technical but never showy. When Stenberg's voice cracks, it's difficult not to feel the tension in one's own throat. When she roars, it's loud as thunder.
Tillman's camera sees Starr, and Seven, and Sekani, and Khalil. As with many adaptations of novels, Tillman and Wells struggle to capture the full arc of the narrative—necessarily condensing things for the sake of simplicity and expedience, but not totally able to compensate for the weight and nuance lost. But they have nevertheless told a vital story centered on the strength, intelligence, compassion, and undeniable power of a young black woman. The Hate U Give does right by its source material, star, and subject. Like any good teen movie, it includes triumph—and in many ways, it is one itself.

El Clásico del Oeste de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires también conocido como el Clásico de la Clase Media es como se denomina al partido del fútbol argentino que enfrenta a los clubes Ferro Carril Oeste y Vélez Sarsfield, ambos de la zona oeste de la capital argentina.

En total, este clásico se disputó en 155 oportunidades (sumando la era amateur y la profesional), con 61 victorias para Vélez Sarsfield y 48 para Ferro Carril Oeste, mientras que empataron en 46 ocasiones. El primer encuentro se jugó en la era amateur, el 6 de junio de 1920, con resultado a favor de Vélez Sarsfield en condición de visitante por 0:0. La última vez que se enfrentaron fue el 24 de junio de 2000, en el Clausura 2000, con resultado a favor del mismo por 1:0 en cancha de su rival. Desde entonces, este encuentro no se ha vuelto a disputar debido a que ambos clubes participan de diferentes categorías.

Historia

Desde los inicios en el amateurismo, Vélez Sarsfield marcó un predominio en el historial del clásico. El equipo del barrio de Liniers (por entonces en Villa Luro) ganó los primeros cuatro partidos en la historia con una supremacía arrolladora (convirtió 19 goles y no recibió ninguno), mientras que Ferro Carril Oeste debió esperar hasta el quinto encuentro para conseguir su primera victoria.

En 1931 se dio inició al profesionalismo en el fútbol argentino, y el primer equipo en conseguir una victoria en esta nueva era fue Ferro Carril Oeste, venciendo por 3 a 0. No obstante, la década del 30 fue ampliamente favorable a Vélez que consiguió nueve victorias, contra cinco de su oponente. Además, totalizó 16 partidos ganados contra 8. También, obtuvo la goleada más grande entre los dos clubes en toda la historia: fue 7 a 0 por el Campeonato de Primera División de 1935.

En la década del 40 se celebraron solo 10 partidos, debido a los descensos a la segunda categoría del fútbol argentino de ambos clubes. Primero descendió Vélez en 1940 y volvió a la Primera División en 1943. Luego, en 1946 perdió la categoría Ferro y retornó en 1949. De esos 10 encuentros que se jugaron durante los 40, se repartieron cinco victorias para cada lado. El historial, de esta manera, quedaba con 21 victorias para Vélez, 13 para Ferro y 11 empates.

Entre 1950 y 1959 se llevaron a cabo 18 partidos. El historial en esta década tuvo un leve resultado favorable a Vélez Sarsfield, que logró siete victorias contra seis de Ferro.

Durante la década del 60 se produjeron dos descensos del club de Caballito. Sin embargo, Ferro Carril Oeste fue el equipo que quedó arriba en el historial de 17 partidos. De esos encuentros hubo 10 cotejos que terminaron en empate, cuatro con victoria para el "Verdolaga" y tres para Vélez Sarsfield. Ferro perdió la categoría en 1962 y retornó un año después aunque, no obstante, volvió a caer en segunda en 1969 y 1970.

Desde 1971 hasta 1979 se jugaron 27 partidos dentro de los campeonatos Metropolitano y Nacional. En esta década Vélez fue, nuevamente, el que se impuso en el historial. Logró 14 victorias frente a nueve de Ferro y solo cuatro empates.

En la década más gloriosa de Ferro Carril Oeste, cuando logró sus únicos dos títulos locales, el historial le fue muy favorable. Se disputaron 26 partidos, con doce victorias contra seis y ocho igualdades.

Durante la década del 90, la más importante de Vélez, cuando logró cinco títulos internacionales y cuatro locales, se llevaron a cabo 21 encuentros, entre los cuales el club de Liniers logró nueve victorias, Ferro cuatro, y hubo ocho empates. La última edición de este clásico disputada en el el Fortín de Liniers sucedió el 28 de noviembre de 1999, por el Torneo Apertura, con victoria del local por 6:1.

En la década de 2000 se jugó un solo cotejo, en el Torneo Clausura, con victoria para Vélez por 1:0 como visitante en el estadio Arquitecto Ricardo Etcheverri. Éste fue el último partido que se jugó en la historia, ya que luego de ese torneo el Club Ferro Carril Oeste descendió de categoría y aún no ha podido retornar a la Primera División.

En ocasiones, la rivalidad llegó a tener diferencias hasta políticas, por la adhesión de Vélez Sarsfield al peronismo, y de Ferro al radicalismo.

In 1982, angered by a White House secretly escalating an unpopular war in Central America, the House passed the Boland Amendment, a rider to the Defense Appropriations Act of 1983.
The amendment was crafted by Massachusetts Congressman Edward Boland, and was designed to cut off funds the CIA and other intelligence agencies were using to carry out sabotage attacks in Nicaragua and to support the anti-government Contra guerrillas. The Senate had a Republican majority at the time, but even members of President Reagan's own party were outraged when he launched his Contra-backing warfare without even notifying Congressional oversight committees.
So far, the newly Democrat-controlled Congress has not been outraged enough to use its constitutionally-mandated power to force an end to the lethal war in Iraq. Perhaps they will still rise to the occasion, ending the war by cutting funds for the war.
But there is still time right now—before the Bush administration makes good on its rising threats—to stop the looming war in Iran. We need a new Boland Amendment, one that will pre-empt any possibility of the White House launching an attack against Iran.

This post will kick off a series of blog posts about the state of software engineering in bioinformatics. In each post I will take a stab at a popular tool in bioinformatics, dive in its code and show some of its worst parts. The issues will range from bad style, via ineffective idioms to plain errors.
To be fair, I will start this series with a bug of my own. andi is a tool for alignment-free sequence comparison I wrote during my master's thesis. After continuous "improvement" I ended up with the following code excerpt after a particular git merge.
It should be suspicious that some of the code is duplicated; The Jukes-Cantor correction is applied twice. Due to this, evolutionary distances above 0.1 became significantly overcorrected and thus too large. The deeper issue is not that errors like this happen, but that it wasn't caught by unit tests. It should be easy to test that given two sequences with a certain substitution rate, my tool would reproduce it. However, at that point in time, only the non-corrected distance was checked.
This failure to validate is all too common in bioinformatics. These days andi comes with reproducible unit tests covering 82% of the code. This is not as good as it could be, but much better than most tools in bioinformatics which come without any tests at all.
Next post: MUMmer. Feel free to send my your examples.

Growth slows but Morrison stays optimistic
Colin Brinsden, AAP Economics Correspondent
(Australian Associated Press)
A marked rebound in household spending and a footy tournament have helped the Australian economy extend its record-breaking expansion.
However, weak exports during the final three months of 2017 proved a drag on economic growth, posting the worst quarterly outcome since September 2016.
The economy grew by just 0.4 per cent in the December quarter after an upwardly revised 0.7 per cent expansion in the previous quarter.
The annual growth rate eased to 2.4 per cent, from 2.7 per cent previously.
But Treasurer Scott Morrison remains optimistic about the outlook and the result was on track with what he expected when he released his mid-year budget review in December.
"Australians (are) backing themselves, getting jobs, spending more and investing more, particularly where it matters in our economy," Mr Morrison told reporters in Canberra on Wednesday.
Shadow treasurer Chris Bowen was not impressed with the result.
"At a time when the global economy is as strong as it's been since the global financial crisis, it makes this result here in Australia even more disappointing," Mr Bowen told AAP.
"The government hasn't had to deal with a global financial crisis, yet economic growth remains stuck below trend and low wages growth continues to be a concern."
Household consumption increased by one per cent in the quarter, double the pace of the previous three months.
Mr Morrison noted this was led by an increase in spending in hotels, cafes and restaurants, thanks to the Rugby League World Cup tournament.
However, net exports fell 0.4 per cent, having previously been driven by a bumper crop, while also reflecting the final stages of motor vehicle industry close-down.
But Mr Morrison said a look at the overall indicators within the report showed a "soundness and a strength" in the economy.
The annual growth result was slower than the 2.5 per cent that had been forecast by the Reserve Bank.
Earlier, central bank governor Philip Lowe had warned the growth result might be easier than first thought because of exports, but it didn't alter his expectation of a stronger economy in 2018 than in 2017.
"The underlying drivers leading to stronger growth are still in play," he told the Australian Financial Review Business Summit in Sydney on Wednesday.
He said consumption and employment have picked up and investment is rising reasonably strongly.
"With the economy moving in the right direction, and interest rates still quite low, it is likely that the next move in interest rates in Australia will be up, not down," he said.
However, Dr Lowe does not expect a near-term adjustment with progress in reducing unemployment and having inflation return to target likely to be gradual.

'KUWTK': Behind Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson's Drama at True's Birthday Party
by Wendy Michaels linkedin | More Articles: TV
Khloe Kardashian faced a devastating blow when boyfriend Tristan Thompson cheated on her with her sister's best friend, Jordyn Woods. To complicate matters, Kardashian has had to move on from the scandal in order to co-parent their daughter, True. That meant inviting Thompson to True's birthday party, just weeks after the infidelity.

The birthday party was awkward
Fans were surprised that Kardashian invited Thompson to the birthday party given the heartbreaking cheating scandal, but the reality star wanted to include True's father in the celebration.
It was a mature move on Kardashian's part, but not without some major awkwardness, which fans spotted in one moment shared on social media. The video showed Kardashian holding True and talking with guests as Thompson attempted to hold his daughter.
The reality star's body language was revealing, as she seemed to block him from reaching out to hold True, pivoting her body away to talk to other people and ignoring Thompson.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VV0c6rFbH2k
KUWTK reveals how Kardashian handled the reunion
In a preview for the upcoming season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, fans get a behind-the-scenes look at how Khloe dealt with having Thompson there.
The reality star explains, "My life is filled with drama" and a clip from the party with Khloe spotting her ex and saying, "Oh my god, Tristan is here," rolls. She notes, "Now I'm done" and walks away.
She wanted to 'do what was best for True'
In a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest for his radio show, Khloe shared, "[T]hat was really hard."
She explained: "True's birthday was just a couple weeks after all of that stuff happened, so everything was really raw and fresh. You're going to see that in the first episode, really how we even came to the point where I even invited Tristan to her first birthday."
Kardashian added: "I always wanted that to be obviously a mommy and daddy thing. In my family, it is everyone who is going through this breakup. So I knew in my family it was going to be a lot of high tension, but I still wanted to do what was best for True."
A post shared by Khloé Kardashian (@khloekardashian)
How Kardashian has moved on
Despite the devastating cheating scandal, Kardashian has moved on and says she doesn't hold any grudges. She told Seacrest: "I'm not someone that holds a grudge. If I do that, it's only gonna affect me and I'm genuinely, I don't even — that chapter is closed for me."
She added: "I want all of us to move on and to be happy, successful people. I just want everyone to just be better people with each day and that's genuinely how I feel."
Kardashian expressed how she is able to forgive and move on, noting: "We're all human beings and we're all figuring out life and stuff happens and people make mistakes and as long as it doesn't define who they are, as long as they don't make those choices define them and they try to evolve and become better people, we're all gonna survive. We all learn from it."

Q: Pandas: converting annual cumulative values to quarterly data A dataframe contains cumulative sum of value measurement for each name within a year. After year ends the cumsum restarts. For each value we have start and end dates of measurement.
How can I convert cumulative measurements to quarterly measurements in such situation?
Reproducible examples of as_is and to_be dataframes:
asis = pd.DataFrame({
    'name':np.repeat( ['name_1','name_2'], 8 ),
    'startdate':np.repeat(['2017-01-01', '2018-01-01','2017-01-01', '2018-01-01'], 4 ),
    'enddate':np.tile( pd.date_range('1/1/2017', periods=16, freq='Q'), 1 ),
    'value': [1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4,3,6,9,12,3,6,9,12] })

tobe = pd.DataFrame({
    'name':np.repeat( ['name_1','name_2'], 8 ),
    'startdate':np.tile( pd.date_range('1/1/2017', periods=16, freq='Q')-1, 1 ),
    'enddate':np.tile( pd.date_range('1/1/2017', periods=16, freq='Q'), 1 ),
    'value': [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3] })

A: I think you want groupby.diff:
(asis.groupby(['name','startdate'])
    ['value'].diff()         # substract by the previous cumsum
    .fillna(asis['value'])   # fill the first quarters
)

Output:

Creating an accurate and comprehensive set of ingredient specifications is the most important step an ingredient end user can take to protect product safety, quality and suitability. The ingredient specification is an absolute statement of instructions, limits, requirements, regulatory references, certifications and any other stipulations and guidance relating to end user expectations and details.
End users must take great care to protect their interests by creating, reviewing and verifying an accurate and comprehensive specification for each individual ingredient or intermediate component. Incomplete, vague and poorly-written specifications lead to misunderstandings and misinterpretations which may cause risks to safety, quality and will eventually impact both end user and consumer satisfaction.
Specification experts at EHA provide client guidance for creation of comprehensive document estates based on mandatory supplier disclosure information. Further, clients are provided with methods to unify supplier and end-user properties and align ingredient expectations and risks in order to reduce the risk of unexpected non-conformances.
Not all ingredients supplied to end users can be expected to meet all expectations; however honest supplier disclosure is used to identify gaps, risks and property variation. Awareness of risk and variability allows end users to adjust monitoring and evaluations, looking at weak links to identify unacceptable variation.

Now Reading : Key Findings on Youth Sports in Seattle & King County, Washington
Key Findings on Youth Sports in Seattle & King County, Washington
September 9, 2019 • Sports & Society Program
The Aspen Institute Sports & Society Program, together with the University of Washington and King County Parks, analyzed the landscape of youth physical activity through sports, play and outdoor recreation in King County from January to June 2019. State of Play Seattle-King County offers a snapshot of how well adults are serving youth through sports, play and outdoor recreation, with attention to race, location and income-based disparities.
Findings for this report were guided by an advisory board of local leaders and obtained through individual interviews with stakeholders; focus-group discussions with youth and parents; youth, parent and coach surveys; existing reports; policy analyses; public data; and media accounts.
Some key findings in the report:
Organized sport is exclusive, economically and culturally, leaving many King County youth on the sidelines. Youth who do not speak English at home are almost three times more likely to have never participated in organized sports or recreation than children who speak English at home. Youth of color are significantly less likely than white youth to have participated in an organized sport. Our survey of parents in King County suggests that kids are more likely to participate in organized sports if their parents make $75,000 or more, mirroring a trend seen nationally.
Only 19% of youth in King County meet the 60 minutes of physical activity per day recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Girls (16%) are less likely to be sufficiently physically active than boys (22%). Physical activity declines as youth get older, with only 13% of 12th graders meeting the CDC recommendations. Eleven percent of youth who do not speak English at home meet the CDC recommendations compared with 20% of youth who do speak English at home.
Infrastructure — like fields, facilities and transportation — cannot meet demand to support youth physical activity. Most of south King County has poor transit access to parks, reflective of both less green space and less well-connected transit networks. Use of Seattle's lit, multipurpose fields has doubled in the last decade even as more have come on line.
Youth in south King County have fewer playfields and parks in their neighborhoods, and access to them is more restrictive than in the rest of the region. Youth of color spend significantly less time at the parks near them than their white peers.
Nontraditional programs and nonmainstream sports, like Ultimate frisbee, offer models for positive youth development. Ultimate is the third-most-played organized sport in the region, behind soccer and basketball.
Youth tell us that walking and running are the top ways they are physically active; cycling and hiking are also in the top 10.
Youth say that martial arts and boxing are the sports they most want to try. Surfing, lacrosse, parkour, fencing and rock climbing aren't far behind.
More King County youth play organized flag football (7%) than tackle (5%), and they are almost three times more likely to try flag than to try tackle. Nationally, flag has also surpassed tackle among kids ages 6 to 12.
Our recommendations offer ideas based on the unique characteristics of King County and the recommendations of the community advisory board. Several key recommendations are related to ongoing regional debates about policies and priorities, including transportation, land use, and education. Our major recommendation focuses on establishing schools as a hub for physical activity. As access to sport and recreation becomes more inequitable, schools offer a space where all youth can be served and participate.
Other solutions include creating an equity toolkit for sport and recreation providers; integrating access to parks and playfields into conversations about regional transportation improvements; creating a youth sports and recreation portal with a rating system; and launching a public health campaign aimed at increasing youth physical activity.
The University of Washington's youth survey drives much of the analysis in this report. The survey was distributed to fifth- through 12th-grade students across the county — in public schools, private schools and after-school programs — and was taken by 1,038 youth.
Children, as the consumers of youth sports, carry a valuable voice that too often is not reflected in coaching and programming. When children have some measure of control over physical activity, they are more inclined to enjoy themselves and thus continue to move their bodies, becoming athletes for life. In King County, what youth most like about organized sports and recreation is having fun and playing with friends. Winning was not in the top five.
State of Play Seattle-King County is the Aspen Institute's eighth overall community report. There is a county report on Mobile County, Alabama; a state report on Hawai'i; regional reports on Southeast Michigan, Western New York, and Greater Rochester and the Finger Lakes; and hyperlocal reports on Harlem and Baltimore. Stakeholders in those communities have taken actions based on the recommendations and are seeing results.
With a passionate sports culture and love of the outdoors, King County has the opportunity to take action and provide more equitable access to and higher quality of sport, physical activity and recreation opportunities for all children. This can be accomplished through a joint commitment — by schools, local government agencies, nonprofits and the business community — to the health and wellbeing of our next generation.

Lamar Odom Once Used A Fake Penis To Pass The Olympic Drug Test
(Photo by Stephen Dunn/Getty Images)
Lauryn Overhultz Columnist
Former basketball player Lamar Odom revealed he once used a prosthetic penis to pass the Olympic drug test.
Odom opened up about his addiction to drugs in his new memoir, "Darkness To Light," according to a report published Friday by People.
Odom was selected to be on the U.S. Men's Olympic Basketball team in 2004. The catch was that he had to pass a drug test.
Great time at the Fashionnova x Cardi B launch party last night. Congrats to my man @rich Styled: @albaagency Jewelry: @luxuryjewelsofbeverlyhills Photo credit: Jerritt Clark
A post shared by Lamar Odom (@lamarodom) on May 9, 2019 at 11:59am PDT
"The joy of being named to the twelve-man roster quickly turned to anxiety when Olympic officials informed me that I would have to pass a drug test before officially joining the team," Odom wrote.
Odom revealed he had been smoking marijuana every day that summer leading up to the Olympics and knew he would be disqualified from competing. (RELATED: Lamar Odom Reveals He Regrets Cheating On Ex-Wife Khloé Kardashian)
"We started googling 'fake penises' and studied different ways to beat a drug test," Odom added. "After an exhaustive search, we ordered a giant, rubber, black c**k to arrive the next day."
What do you think is the number one killer of dreams ? It's fear. Today, my body is healthy, my mind is at peace, I love my children and they love me. Thats it. It's the ONLY thing that matters in my life today. What is accomplishment to you ? And why? You will accomplish NOTHING in life if you don't start fighting your fears. Fears are lies. Voices in your head that will tell you to give up. Voices telling you that you can't and won't. The biggest battle I fought in life is the fight against my fears. The reason i am making a comeback to basketball is because I REFUSE to listen to my fears but instead follow my heart. My heart, telling me that I have to play basketball one more time to show people that you can OVERCOME addiction and LIVE a happy life enjoying the little things. I used to win NBA championships and chances are small that I will ever be playing on NBA level or maybe I will. Who knows? I am a believer of the POWER OF WILL, that's how I won my championships. I believed I could and I did! But listen to this, I don't have to be a NBA champion again to make a difference in the life of my kids, people around me or even in yours. Maybe I can show you that you can become a champion in defeating your addiction or help others defeating theirs.. Those are the real champions of this world. We need more of these messages in this world today. It's the year of execution not talking. Im ready for you. For today, I hope you can shut down that voice of fear and see how the universe is gonna reward you back for just believing in yourself. #fearisalie ???? @ryanloco
A post shared by Lamar Odom (@lamarodom) on Apr 18, 2019 at 10:47am PDT
Odom used his trainer's pee to fool the NBA official, and the official bought it, telling him, "Welcome to Team USA."
I didn't even know you could buy fake penises on the internet that you could fake pee out of. This is a terrible thing to do but is honestly a genius plan. Odom is a lot smarter than I thought he was.

Iv been trying to follow this to toggle a class on and off when a user clicks a link, iv got it now so that if the user clicks a link with lets say id="22" it will tick the tickbox with id="tick_22", what I'm trying to do now is add some user feedback so that the link changes colour when the tick box is ticked. I have tried to follow the example on the Jquery site http://api.jquery.com/toggleClass/
, but for some reason its not working ?. I'm not sure if I need to use (this.class) or just (this) ?.
    $(document).on('click', '.selectlink', function () {
         var myId = $('#check_' + this.id);
         if ($(myId).is(':checked')) {
         $(myId).prop('checked', false);
         $(this).toggleclass( activeselectlink, addOrRemove );
         }
         else {$(myId).prop('checked', true);
         $(this).toggleclass( activeselectlink, addOrRemove );
         }
         countChecked();
    });
    });
    </script>

A: check your case, Javascript/jQuery use Camel case..i.e. name it toggleClass and not toggleclass .. http://api.jquery.com/toggleClass/

A: case is wrong.
Check for it first :
.toggleClass instead of .toggleclass

A: You can put the class to toggle in "class2toggle":
$(this).toggleClass("activeselectlink"); // this should work

A: First its .toggleClass() not .toggleclass().
Second, the variable addOrRemove has not been declared anywhere. It is supposed to be a variable of type boolean.

Friday Notes
by David Lesky October 5, 2018
I miss the playoffs. I know they're happening right now, but what I mean is that I miss the Royals being in them. I miss writing series previews. I miss the graying process of my hair speeding up by years. I miss the nerves. I miss the relief. Maybe we'll get to experience that again soon enough in Kansas City. It was easy to be optimistic at the end of the year with the young talent doing most of the heavy lifting down the stretch of a winning September and much improved post-break time. So we'll see how that goes, but for now, it's going to be quiet around baseball unless you're a team in the postseason or a manager about to be fired.
Speaking of managers, Dayton Moore announced prior to the final game of the season that Ned Yost would be back for the 2019 season. I'm sure some people won't like that, but whatever. I think it's a prudent move, especially if the next manager truly is in the organization right now, which I believe to be true. The 2019 Royals, no matter what you're hoping for after that strong finish, are not likely to be good, but there is a brighter future ahead than what anyone likely saw at this time last year when there was just so much uncertainty around the team. Yost staying to absorb some of those losses and to help get the initial growing pains out of the way makes a lot of sense for the Royals and shows that Yost has the best interest of his successor in mind. That's another reason why I believe the manager is in house. It sure seems like Yost cares enough about whoever's fate. Personally, I think Pedro Grifol is the guy. I know a lot have speculated Dale Sveum and Vance Wilson, and I can't argue with them, but I've heard whispers too often that Grifol is the next man in charge for me to shy away from making that prediction now (and on Twitter a few days ago, I guess I'm pretty transparent). And I think it'd be a good fit as he's bilingual and mixes the analytics with the scouting extremely well. He seems to have a good relationship with Moore and the team obviously knows him well. Plus, it's pretty clear the Royals, and maybe Yost specifically, have fought to keep him around even when he lost his job as hitting coach. Take it for what it's worth. That's my two cents.
The sample is small for everything Adalberto Mondesi did in 2018, but the trend is somewhat interesting to me. There's been some talk on the interwebs about how he's laying off pitches better than before and all that, and this is just an extension of that. Prior to the break, he hit .250/.270/.444, which showed good power, but not nearly enough in the way of getting on base to show off his wheels. And he had a .306 BABIP, so without diving too deep into the back end numbers, he wasn't especially unlucky. After walking twice in 74 plate appearances before the break, he walked nine times in 217 after. No, that's still not good. But going from a 2.7 percent rate to a 4.2 percent rate is noteworthy to me. But even moreso, he began coming on strong on August 25th when he really started playing basically every day, and in his final 30 games, he walked seven times in 135 plate appearances. Nope, still not special, but 5.2 percent is much, much closer to acceptable. He hit .312/.351/.624 in that time with 10 home runs and 16 steals and a .354 BABIP, which honestly isn't outrageous given his speed. He's never going to walk a ton, but with his pop and his ability to add extra bases after the fact, he doesn't need to have a 10 percent walk rate to be a star (though it'd be nice). I think he's on the right track. I'm curious to see how things go in 2019, especially if he doesn't get off to a hot start, but he's one of the most exciting storylines of 2019.
I've thought a lot about how pitching and roles are changing in baseball thanks in large part to the Rays sort of having to go on the fly with their opener strategy. And I know I've talked a little bit about how the Royals might go about that. As it stands right now, making the silly assumption of health, the Royals have four guys who will enter the season in the rotation – Danny Duffy, Jakob Junis, Brad Keller and Ian Kennedy – and then have a fifth starter spot that'll be open for some competition among Jorge Lopez, Heath Fillmyer, Trevor Oaks, Scott Barlow and maybe even a couple other guys like Foster Griffin or Scott Blewett if they're added to the roster. So the Royals aren't likely to be too innovative given what they have, but they could really benefit from using the opener for a couple of their pitchers. Junis stands out to me as a guy who would really benefit from getting to start his day with the fifth or sixth place hitter and only face the top four or five twice in a game. His third time through the order penalty isn't crazy stiff, but his .306/.353/.529 is bad enough that it's worth him not having to get there. Keller and Duffy didn't really have any noteworthy third time through the order splits (in fact Keller still held opponents below a .700 OPS the third time), but Ian Kennedy struggled actually the second time through the order last season, and maybe if the hitters getting a second look at him are the 6-7-8 hitters and in the fifth or sixth inning, that would be helpful to him. It seems unlikely like I said, but I could see Richard Lovelady, Jerry Vasto, Tim Hill, Scott Barlow and Jorge Lopez all as guys who could be really good in that opening role. The lefties for their ability to get through a lefty heavy top of the order and the righties as guys who might be better in two or three inning stints. I imagine that time will come for the Royals once Yost leaves, but he's surprised us before, so you never know.
Someone mentioned on Twitter that it would be interesting to see what the Royals have actually lost in the Rule 5 draft in response to my article about what the Royals have gained over the years. Not surprisingly, the answer is that they haven't lost much. Best I can tell, they've lost 15 players over the years with 11 of them seeing big league team. Such great names as Aurelio Monteagudo, Dick Colpaert and Ryan Baerlocher adorn the list of those gone to other teams, and the best they've lost is probably Victor Santos who went to the Pirates in the 2005 draft, but that was after five years in the big leagues posting a 4.99 ERA in 423 innings. So I guess he wasn't really the best after the draft, but he was the best overall, I suppose. Rodney Myers was taken in that same draft by the Cubs and he actually put together some big league seasons, so that's a plus for him. I guess the moral of this story is that the Royals have certainly gotten way more than they've given in the Rule 5 draft throughout their history and that's a pretty good thing.

I've been a Royals fan since the day I was born, and have had the opportunity to write about the Royals for nearly a decade now. The winning was better than the losing, but the losing is kind of familiar at least.

Kennedy's times through the order issues are one reason some have suggested him for closer next season. Another reason is to try to keep him healthy, and a third is that he wouldn't be blocking a young arm for the rotation. Fillmyer and Lopez both showed enough ceiling to warrant another long look.

Doubt it's on the radar, but I would love to see Carlos Beltran added to the staff next season and take over as manager in 2020 or 2021.
Reply to Haymaker9
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of that idea. Sure if he's added to the staff he'll have some experience, but the track record of managers with that little experience isn't great. Of course, there are exceptions, and the sample is small of managers in that boat, but I'd much rather go with someone who has done it before at some level.

If you're looking for a way to connect with your teenage daughter this summer, consider starting a girl's book study group with your daughter and her friends.
You may think that teens would not respond well to this idea, but think again...you just might be surprised.
First bounce the idea off your daughter and see what her thoughts are on the subject. If she shows any sign of interest, then brainstorm some possible book titles and/or topics. When my daughter and I started our group last summer, we had in mind to get some girls together from our church's high school youth group. So we talked about some of the books that people were reading at the time.
Next my daughter started calling her friends and acquaintances to see who she could interest in the idea. Almost everyone she talked to was interested in coming and liked the idea, but many were already busy with other summer activities. We narrowed the list to around four or five who committed to reading the book and getting together to talk about it. We all gave input into which book we wanted to read, and ended up with "What's So Amazing About Grace?" a popular non-fiction book by Phillip Yancey.
I broke the book down into three- to four-chapter sections, and we decided to meet Wednesday evenings for six weeks. Overall, the study went very well, and it was very rewarding. We all have fond memories of it, and it was great to spend that quality time with my daughter.
* Don't take it personally if everyone doesn't come every week. Everyone has busy schedules and conflicts arise. Probably only one or two girls came every single week, even my daughter missed at least one. You'll find that conversations can greatly differ depending on the mix of girls, which is good!
* Meet in a low-key, relaxed setting so everyone is comfortable and doesn't feel like they're in a classroom. We took blankets to sit on down to a local park and had snacks every week.
* Don't pressure yourself into having to "lead" the group. You're not there to teach them, but only to facilitate the conversation. I found it helpful to choose a book that included group study questions. Some books have the questions in the back. This particular book had a companion study guide that had to be purchased separately. Just let the girls talk, and ask questions if there is a big lull in the conversation. Although you might be tempted to challenge "wrong" answers, let the girls challenge each other first and see what conclusions they come to. It is rare that you'll have to intercede. Instead of challenging someone directly, ask them more questions to help them reach a another answer.
* On the same note as the last point, don't feel you have to give advice or have all the right answers. Most teenagers love having someone, particularly adults, listen to their thoughts and feelings. They don't expect you to know everything, they just want you to listen. You'll find that the teens come from all different family backgrounds and don't always have other people to listen to them when they need to talk.
* Encourage girls to come to the discussions even if they didn't do their reading for the week. You'll find that most are embarrassed if they didn't do their "homework" and don't want to show up. Encourage them to come even if they didn't read it, to encourage fellowship among the girls.
* Dads can have book study groups with their teenage sons and their friends too! They may need to goof around some more and maybe burn off some energy before they get down to business (some kind of outdoor activity), but teenage guys like to get together and learn from each other also.
A book study group is a great way to get to know some of your teenager's friends. Encourage them to also invite people they don't know very well...people from school or work who they want to get to know better. It's a great way to make that first step towards friendship and teaches them to reach out to others.
