The December Five are here! Have you had a chance to practice these with me this week? If not can you get on the floor right now and do one minute each of Bird dog, and Mermaid? If you need a tutorial on any of the other moves, join us for a class, or come and see me for a one on one session!


Dalvik is the process virtual machine in Google's Android operating system. As we all known, Andorid right now is the most popular mobile platform.
Code generation , Bitcode can be translated to native code by LLVM and during the process it also can call Native lib and be excuted by cpu. But for Dalvik ByteCode, it must be excuted under Dalvik VM. Even with Dalvik JIT compiler, there is only small part of Dalvik ByteCode TraceRun module can be translated to the native assembly. It is not like the native code generated by LLVM can be excuted 100% in native environment.
Reuseability , LLVM can optimize BitCode into native code entirely. Now, Dalvik ByteCode only support runtime ByteCode JIT compiler. Once Dalvik program exits, all JIT compiled results are gone. It needs the Dalvik program be reloaded and then decide which part to be translated into native code by every ByteCode Trace-Run's counter.
Space , Usually, Dalvik application APK nees 2 storage space, one for DEX , one for ODEX that stays in dalvik cache. But LLVM application don't need to do that.
Computing Resource , The result from LLVM compiler can be excuted in a native way but Dalvik JIT needs Trace-Run Counter to decide recompiling. So from cpu runtim overhead, LLVM is more efficient.
Security, LLVM suport inline assembly which is not allowed in Java world. This makes LLVM efficient but also some security problem around this.

Zuma moves to mend fences with Nigeria
South Africa's testy relationship with Nigeria has come into sharp focus with President Jacob Zuma's official two-day visit to the West African country which ends later on Wednesday.
Zuma's visit comes in the wake of the debacle surrounding South African telecommunications giant MTN which faces a multi-billion-dollar fine imposed by the Nigerian Communications Regulator.
This is after MTN failed to meet a deadline to disconnect 5.1 million unregistered subscribers to enable the Nigerian authorities to improve security.
The initial fine was reduced by 25 per cent to 3.9 billion dollars in December.
President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday fuelled the inferno when he accused MTN of increasing the Boko Haram threat in north-east Nigeria by failing to disconnect unregistered users.
Buhari told a joint news conference that the concern of the federal government "was basically on the security, not the fine imposed on MTN".
In an interesting twist, the Nigerian media is speculating that Pretoria has set its sights on Boko Haram, and will be helping Abuja in its efforts to combat the Islamist militant group.
According to the report, Nigeria and South Africa are to collaborate on war on terror.
This followed a press briefing delivered by Nigerian Defence Minister Dan Ali after a meeting with his South African counterpart Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nquakula on Tuesday.
However, political analyst Simon Allison suggests that any collaboration between Africa's two power houses is fraught with political, diplomatic, legal and financial difficulties that would make it very difficult to implement.
Writing in the Johannesburg-based Daily Maverick, Allison said there is a very low chance South African special forces will be involved directly in fighting against Boko Haram.
"In other words, no matter what the Nigerian media might be saying, South Africa is not joining a war.
Even a deployment of South African special forces as trainers seems unlikely, given the personnel and resource constraints under which the South African National Defence Force is operating,"he added.
Zuma, who is accompanied by 30 business leaders and seven Cabinet Ministers, said South Africa and Nigeria have signed over 30 bilateral agreements and memoranda of understanding in areas including trade, industry, security and immigration.
Zuma used his platform to note that from the mid-1970s' Nigeria hosted some of the exiled freedom fighters from South Africa' with numbers increasing after the Soweto Student Uprising in 1976.
He said the 40th anniversary of that uprising is being commemorated in South Africa as Nigeria marks 40 years since, "the passing of one of the illustrious sons of Nigeria and Africa' General Murtala Mohammed".
"His tenure only lasted 200 days but it had a profound impact' particularly on the struggle against apartheid and colonialism in Southern Africa'" said Zuma.

From winter storms that bring lots of snow, to crazy thaw outs, the weather seems to be playing ping-pong lately.
With the holidays in full swing, it's easy to forget about the out of sight areas around the house. Make sure you take a moment to check the basement for unwanted water finding its way in.
The last thing you want to have to do is paddle up to the dinner table on Christmas day in a canoe because you forgot to keep an eye on that basement! All kidding aside, fast thaw-outs can create equally fast basement flooding.
Keep an eye on things now to prevent uh-oh moments later.
Tis the season for Christmas trees on cars, not canoes!

With the vast majority of people owning at least one device that can access the internet, today's consumer is truly connected. Although, in the scheme of things smartphones, tablets and ereaders are all relatively new inventions, they are things that consumers have rapidly adopted and integrated into their lives.
This integration is evidenced by the fact that we collectively spend a huge proportion of our time using our devices to access the internet – some 60 days a year on average. It is interesting, however, that while gadgets do absorb a lot of our time they have also allowed us to be more effective at undertaking tasks like shopping. The portability of devices like tablets allows us to do tasks, like grocery shopping, while travelling or waiting around – time that may otherwise be underutilised.
The rise of tablets as a shopping device is evidenced by the fact that 74 per cent of tablet owners use the devices regularly to browse or buy products. Moreover, in terms of the time spent shopping – tablets are the most heavily used device, with those shopping via them spending an average of 72 minutes per day on the devices.
A Conlumino study commissioned by Webloyalty, The Connected Consumer, questioned over 2000 consumers in January 2015 and found that 87 per cent now shop online, compared by 78.3 per cent who shop online. They also spend more time in-store (42.4 minutes versus 24.8 minutes) which may account for its continuing growth in popularity. Nearly three quarters (70.4 per cent) of those surveyed thought technology would make shopping a more convenient experience in the future, with almost two thirds (64.2 per cent) believing that it would make the shopping experience more efficient.
Researchers calculated that total value of personal connected devices in UK households has more than doubled in the last decade, now totalling £33.4 billion after an increase of 108 per cent from £15.8 billion in 2004 – or £1,375 per household.
There is clearly a long way to go before the mobile experience reaches customer expectations. 64.1 per cent of mobile shoppers disagreed with the statement 'I like to shop via my mobile'.
Despite retailers working hard to offer user-friendly, mobile-optimised websites, consumers prefer to shop via other devices or channels and the majority of online spend is still made via either desktop PCs or laptops. 27 per cent of consumers surveyed stated they almost always used a desktop PC for internet shopping purposes, rising to some 32 per cent for laptop users.
Spend via mobiles is also still relatively low. Even among those using a tablet to shop, it makes up just 28.8 per cent of their online spending. Among those using a mobile to shop, it on average accounts for only 21 per cent of their online spending. In both cases the majority of spend still goes through more traditional online channels such as PCs and laptops.
The slow pace of change is worth paying attention to, as the focus remains firmly on customer choice and experience. After personalisation, for example, sales increased by nearly 8 per cent. This means a company with a turnover of £849m might grow to nearly £916m.
In fact, a recent announcement by John Lewis said that its click and collect service far outstripped its home delivery by the end of 2014, emphasising the importance of offering customers choice. 56 per cent of John Lewis's online customers chose to collect their goods from stores, rather than have them delivered to home addresses. Overall, click and collect orders grew by 47 per cent compared to the same time last year. John Lewis online orders rose by 21.6 per cent to £1.4 billion.

On splitting liability and quantum
In this post, I reproduce an extract from Justice Hoeben's recent decision in Johnson v Trustees of the Roman Catholic Church [2009] NSWSC 309 which discusses the increasing willingness of courts (in NSW at least) to determine preliminary issues before the main trial. In this case, everything except for quantum was ordered to be determined in a first trial, with a second trial on quantum only if necessitated by the outcome of the first trial. It was a kind of professional negligence case in a sense: a pupil was suing her school for her teacher's negligence while she was on school camp.
The only reform of civil justice I seem to hear about these days is an increasing emphasis on mediation. Well, that's an exaggeration, since Victoria is about to join the uniform evidence legislation jurisdictions, and its Attorney-General proposes to unify the rules for all the courts (excellent idea), but I will put aside these promising developments for a moment. I suggest that rather than increasing the amount of mediation, civil justice reform should concentrate on increasing the level of judicial adjudication, which does not necessarily mean increasing the number of once and for all oral trials of all issues. What there should be more mediation of is not the final outcome of cases, but the things which litigants at the moment typically go to court for: interlocutory battles. Far better to outsource the adjudication of disputes about discovery and the parties' articulation of their respective cases so that the trial is prepared quickly than to outsource the resolution of complaints.
As if judges did not already have enough to do judging cases, the plan seems to be to introduce judicial mediation. In my experience, retired judges make bad mediators because they act too much like judges. A mediation where a retired judge acts like a judge is not in fact a mediation, but something more like private adjudication which is only available to the wealthy. It will be interesting to see how current judges go.
All this talk of mediation makes me uncomfortable. It is in practice very expensive even though it should not be. The mediator charges several thousand dollars (unless the mediator is provided by the Court, as in a Magistrates' Court pre-hearing conference). Each party's barrister typically charges several thousand dollars, being their daily fee. There are large preparation fees for the parties' lawyers which do not come directly off the trial preparation fees which would otherwise be charged. The instructing solicitor sits there for a day charging several hundred dollars an hour. If it fails, it contributes to toxic costs syndrome whereby the costs tail starts to wag the dispute dog.
Furthermore, many people want (and many others need) judicial catharsis, and those who don't want it do not necessarily need a mediation to settle their case. Mediation actually inhibits the much cheaper mode of settling cases between solicitors over the phone. What there is way too little of in our system is adjudicated outcomes. Negotiations in litigation have always been conducted against the backdrop of the spectre of a trial and an adjudicated outcome. That prospect propels negotiants to an outcome sufficiently close to an adjudicated outcome as still to be relatively fair. But when the spectre of a trial fades to something barely visible, something which is intolerable because of the delay and expense in getting there, mediation becomes nothing more than a haggle which could probably be achieved far more effectively without the intervention of lawyers. (What's more, when there are too few trials in a sector of the profession, there are too few advocates who actually know how to run a trial, which carries its own problems, one of which is that the comparatively few advocates who actually know how to run a trial get more of the work than is socially desirable.)
I once read an article by a free-thinking and outspoken experienced Australian superior court judge whose thesis was that a very substantial problem with our system of civil procedure is the conception of the once and for all oral trial held on consecutive days until it is finished. I could not agree more, and, having put it aside, I have ever since been looking for it unsuccessfully (anyone?).
There are many cases which would benefit from judicial decision making of preliminary issues. In those cases, settlement would be promoted, and the litigants would probably feel more comfortable that someone had actually prepared their case adequately for a hearing (nothing sharpens a litigator's attention like a hearing) and that they have had the mini-catharsis of some kind of judicial determination. Settlement would be promoted either because the collapse of resolve which is so often a feature of trial eve would come sooner and the hearing would prompt the settlement, or because the issues would be attenuated by the decision in the hearing. Hopefully, one or more of the critical issues standing between the parties would be removed. Of course settlement in the realm of 50/50 would not be promoted by such attenuation. One side would usually lose out on the preliminary determination. Settlement which better reflected the likely outcome if the whole matter were tried would be promoted, rather than the kind of settlement the present system often promotes — settlement which reflects the diligence and skill of the opposed lawyers and the comparative financial resources and bloody mindedness of the litigants.
What Justice Hoeben said was:
'17 UCPR 28.2 provides:
"28.2 The Court may make orders for the decision of any question separately from any other question, whether before, at or after any trial or further trial on the proceedings."
There is no issue that the Court has power to make the order sought by the defendants.
18 Under the common law, courts have been reluctant to order separate hearings on liability unless there is a clear line of demarcation between that issue and damages. A clear example of that reluctance can be seen in Tepko Pty Limited & Ors v Water Board (2001) 206 CLR 1 at [168] – [170] where Kirby and Callinan JJ said:
"[168] The attractions of trials of issues rather than of cases in their totality, are often more chimerical than real. Common experience demonstrates that savings in time and expense are often illusory, particularly when the parties have, as here, had the necessity of making full preparation and the factual matters relevant to one issue are relevant to others, and they all overlap.
[169] The second and related comment is this. A party whose whole case is knocked out on a trial of a preliminary or single issue, may suspect, however unjustifiably, that an abbreviated course was adopted and a decision reached in the court's, rather than the parties', interests.
[170] Thirdly, there is an additional potential for further appeals to which the course of the trial on separate issues may give rise. Indeed, that could occur here were this appeal to be allowed and a retrial had in which the remaining issues of causation and damages were decided. Single-issue trials should, in our opinion, only be embarked upon when their utility, economy, and fairness to the parties are beyond question. "
19 As the defendants have pointed out, since those observations in Tepko, the Civil Procedure Act 2005 has come into force in New South Wales. Sections 56 – 62 of the Act make it clear that considerations of justice have to be tempered by the objectives of case management and the need for proportionality of costs.
20 This change in emphasis was succinctly summarised by Brereton J in Integral Home Loans Pty Limited & Anor v Interstar Wholesale Finance Pty Limited & Anor [2006] NSWSC 1464:
"[6] While much has been said against the resolution of separate questions in Courts of high authority, nonetheless, since the (NSW) Civil Procedure Act 2005, it is my view that the Court should take a more interventionist role in identifying and separating important issues which can resolve significant parts of the litigation expeditiously."
21 His Honour's comments have been adopted and applied in a number of other first instance decisions: Commonwealth Bank of Australia v Clune & Anor [2008] NSWSC 1125 per Johnson J; Barbara O'Sullivan v Challenger Managed Investments Limited [2008] NSWSC 602 per Einstein J; and Vero Insurance Limited v Tran [2008] NSWSC 166 per Hamilton J.'

2 Replies to "On splitting liability and quantum"
I'd need to check a few references, but my recollection is that justices of the HCA, in particular Kirby, but not only Kirby, have spent the past 5-10 years railing against trial-splitting. Invariably, they complain that it leads to abstraction and to the presentation to appellate courts of insufficiently developed problems.

Dreamworks has brought us another entry in the 3D market, an amusing computer animation that would be fun for the kids but has enough for the parents. Starring the voices of Will Ferrell, Tina Fey and Brad Pitt, this comedy centers around the misfit turned bad guy who in the end turns out to be a good guy. Ah, it makes me wonder if all those bad guys out there started as misfits who just never got the love and attention they needed to not turn into full blown bad guys.
Tom McGrath directed the film and for many the name will probably be unknown as it was for me. However, a little research revealed that I have seen other works of this talented gentleman such the animated Madagascar and Madagascar 2. In looking down the list of other projects he's been involved in, I see The Ren and Stimpy Show as storyboard artist and director, Cats and Dogs as storyboard artist and How the Grinch Stole Christmas as set designer. One other project caught my eye, the 1992 film Cool World starring Brad Pitt among others. This film was an attempt to mix animation and live action like Who Killed Jessica Rabbit.
Good gravy, this film had a budget between $130 and $150 million. I googled several sources and couldn't confirm the definitive total but several sites repeat that figure. Whew! That's a lot of money but one site said that amount is usual for a Dreamworks animation. Of course the same site said that on top of that, you would add publicity. So, how was it altogether? I find it interesting considering what's necessary to turn a profit. After all, films are fun but the studio has to make some scratch or it will go bust. This ain't a charity, ya know!
Overall the film received good reviews but in reading many of them I see a theme with which I concur now that I've just seen it. The film is good but at times I felt I was watching stuff I had seen elsewhere like in The Incredibles or Despicable Me. Oh well, if you're going to copy, copy from the best! I did laugh at the parody of Superman with Will Ferrell doing Marlon Brando doing Kal-El. Now who's going to get that?
Rotten Tomatoes gave it 71%, a good rating, not great but good. This review is very late; the film has been around for a number of weeks now so if the fancy strikes you, plan to do so soon. I suspect newer films will be replacing it on the marquee shortly.

Booming Boat Storage in Florida Shows No Signs of Slowing
By Morgan Simpson
In Venice, Fla., like many cities throughout the Sunshine State, boat storage owners have no problems attracting and retaining customers. Many boat owners, they say, will enter a state of panic after finding out the community they moved to doesn't allow boats or their HOA changed restrictions and recreational vehicles are no longer permitted to be parked at home, considered an eyesore from the street.
No matter the reasons, many local boaters are seeking out storage facilities. Because of this, and because there are more boat owners in general, boat storage facilities have little to no availability and wait lists for customers are the norm.
"We've had such a demand for storage," says Lori White, MarineMax Venice Marina manager.
Many boat storage facilities and marinas have experienced this demand has been growing, if not exploding, for years now, with people wanting to store their boats for all sorts of reasons.

The facility also has a specialized lift that is designed to take larger boats out of the water. Photo credit Morgan Simpson.
For BigToy Recreational Storage, located off Center Road in Venice, owner Brian McMurphy emphasizes there is a great need in the area for boat storage because of strict homeowner association rules. "The biggest thing is all the deed-restricted communities," he says.
Many gated communities prohibit boats to be parked on homeowner properties, creating an ever-increasing need for storage, especially in a state known for great boating and fishing experiences.
Since boating is one of the top reasons many people move to the area, McMurphy mentions boaters will panic once they figure out their community prohibits boats, which is becoming common in today's real estate market.
Karis Russell, with BigToy Storage, echoed McMurphy's thoughts about those moving down to Florida from the North and being shocked they couldn't store a boat on their own property.
Russell's advice to boaters is to be prepared, know your HOA rules and restrictions, and if boats aren't allowed to be parked at home, make call places a few months in advance of bringing a boat to the area.
For storage at marinas, the need is a little different from other facilities.
"The biggest reason people store right at a marina is for convenience," says Ken Stead, the Cape Haze Marina general manager.
For both Cape Haze and MarineMax marinas, storing a boat in their facility is more of a concierge service. Their customers pay more for a wide range of specialized services.
MarineMax will wash the boat down and flush the engines when a customer returns it to the marina. Customers also get fuel discounts and preorder fuel and ice so their watercraft is all ready to head out on the water. These customers are willing to pay more for the convenience and to save time, allowing themselves to spend more time on the water.
"Most people do it because they don't want to fight the traffic at the boat ramp," White at MarineMax says.
While there are a lot of reasons for storing boats, finding availability near home or close to their favorite boat ramp might be the hardest part for boaters. "We've had a wait list for probably eight years now," Stead says. He mentioned there is a list to get onto the property in the first place, and then another for the inside dry storage, which is in high demand.
MarineMax Marina also has a similar waiting list system. "We run full most of the time now," White says about their availability.
Most of the storage facilities don't take reservations, but will maintain wait lists and keep potential customers informed of upcoming availability. "I haven't been 50% empty in years," McMurphy says.
Russell with BigToy says people find out the hard way storage places are not available and start to unravel because they waited until last minute to inquire. She says no matter where a customer wants to store a boat, they should definitely call ahead to check for availability, and not be surprised if they have to get on a wait list.
Types of storage and services
While availability can be scarce, there are many storage variations for boat owners. Some facilities are located off of the water, like BigToy, and others are connected to marinas.
BigToy Storage off of Center Road welcomes both boats and RVs. It also has a security fence and a gate, for 24-hour access. Photo credit Morgan Simpson.
At BigToy Storage, boat owners must bring their boats on a trailer. Once on property, the facility offers a climate-control room, outside storage on gravel or asphalt, covered asphalt storage and a completely enclosed covered facility. The entire site is highly secure, which is a bonus for customers who've invested heavily in their recreational vehicles.
"We have a ton of cameras," Russell says, adding they also have a secure gate system.
Inside the facility, prices start from around $115 a month and go up depending on boat size and location on the property. Customers have 24-hour access to their boats through the gate system. The spots are mostly monthly rentals, but Russell says she accommodates short term if available.
Along with security, Russell says as added customer service they will regularly check on the exterior of the boats, especially for seasonal customers and during hurricane season, which is a major threat in Florida overall.
Storage facilities at marinas, including MarineMax and Cape Haze, have a variety of storage options as well. Both places offer wet slips, outside dry and inside dry storage to meet customer preferences. The marinas have forklifts to take the boats out of the water and put them in storage areas.
"The rate you are charged is usually a per-foot basis," Stead says about most marina storage pricing.
Similar to BigToy, the marinas operate on monthly rentals. For Cape Haze, prices start at around $15-$18 per foot. At MarineMax, prices start at around $19.25 per foot and go up depending on location.
Stead says all of the marinas are fairly close in price "when it all boils down." But unlike the off water storage facilities, the marinas will take the boat out of the water for a customer and put it back in when they're ready to set sail.
"If you don't have a waterfront home and you don't have a trailer for your boat, marina storage (or other offsite locations) are your only option," Stead concludes.
Morgan Simpson is a reporter for the Venice Gondolier newspaper in Florida.

Colombia's Cano Limon pipeline halted by first bomb attack of 2019
BOGOTA (Reuters) - Colombian state oil company Ecopetrol has halted the Cano Limon-Covenas pipeline after it was damaged in a bomb attack, spilling crude into two streams in Norte de Santander province, the company said.
The Friday explosion in the rural area of Campo Giles, in Tibu municipality, is the first bombing of Colombian oil infrastructure in 2019. Last year there were 89 attacks in just three provinces, many attributed to leftist rebels.
Crude spilled into two neighboring creeks and on surrounding vegetation, Ecopetrol said in a statement, but the spill is now under control.
The explosion did not affect exports or production in the Cano Limon oil field in northern Arauca province, operated by Occidental Petroleum.
The 773-kilometer (480-mile) Cano Limon pipeline was out of operation for most of 2018 because of attacks, which the military often attributes to the National Liberation Army (ELN) guerrilla group, considered a terrorist organization by the United States and the European Union.
The Cano Limon pipeline has capacity to transport up to 210,000 barrels per day of crude oil.
The insurgent group, which frequently attacks the pipeline, has around 2,000 fighters and opposes oil and mining activities by multinational companies, saying they take advantage of natural resources without benefiting Colombians.
President Ivan Duque, who took office in August, has said he will not continue peace talks with the ELN initiated by his predecessor until the rebels stop kidnappings and all criminal activity.

Film Review – Star Trek Beyond
Reviews July 23, 2016July 22, 2016 Hoshang K. Katrak
When the crew of USS Enterprise get stranded on a distant and hostile planet — somewhere in the 23rd century — Capt. James Kirk (Chris Pine), Comdr. Spock (Zachary Quinto) and company aboard the starship face an unenviable task: that of fleeing the alien terrorists, led by their military commander, the sinister and monstrous Krall (Idris Elba).
Later, it emerges that Krall had engineered the running aground of the starship for a purpose – he desperately wanted an artefact on the USS Enterprise. The legendary sci-fi TV series, which was created in 1966 had metamorphosed into a bunch of successful spin-offs on the silver screen starting from 1979. As sci-fi films and franchises go, Star Trek Beyond – the 13th in the series over all – is probably the most relaxed and indolent of the lot. Set in the 23rd century, the gizmos and gadgetry in STB are so sophisticated that 22nd century weaponry is described as 'antiquated' and 'horse-and-buggy'.
STB is marked out by some rather decent performances and director Justin Lin (having helmed four of the Fast and Furious films) does a fine job in the oft and much exploited fantasy and sci-fi genre. The first half, with some credible sub-plots, is relatively easy on the eye. Post-interval, the SFX crew take over and the predictable set-pieces of planets and colliding space-ships is forced on the viewers.
The closing statement of the film promises – or warns – the viewer of an impending sequel: 'To explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations – boldly going where no man has gone before'.

Make Over With Arshis Javeri


Biggest Loser trainer Jillian Michaels could be in big trouble. The third lawsuit against the Jillian Michaels Maximum Strength Calorie Control pill supplement was filed late Tuesday in Los Angeles County Court.
Kathy Hensley claims the Biggest Loser trainer Jillian Michaels marketed diet pills contain a "potentially lethal" ingredient called citrus aurantium, which can cause high blood pressure and cardiac issues in rare instances. In addition to suing Michaels, Hensley names the pills' maker Thin Care, Basic Research and Walgreens. She's suing for less than $5,000.
After the first suit was filed, Michaels, 36, told the new issue of Us Weekly in a statement that the claims against her pills — which contain coffee bean extract and guarana — are "entirely without merit.
"I stand behind all of my products," she added.


The Executive Women International plans to award three scholarships to women at CPCC for the 2002-2003 school year.

Cisco is a Corporate Startup Star, and that's a good thing for innovation in our industry
Pastora Valero
Having been named by Startup Europe Partnership (SEP) as one of the world's top corporates for start-ups to partner with in 2016, it was brilliant to be honoured once more, as a 'Corporate Startup Star', at 2017's ceremony in December.
Hosted in Brussels, the event was organised by Mind The Bridge and sponsored by the European Commission.
Some of the world's biggest conglomerates were in attendance, and it wasn't just tech companies, either: as well as ourselves and the likes of SAP and Telefonica, others including Unilever and Enel were also present for the awards, discussions and workshops being hosted.
Carlos Moedas, the European Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation presented us with our award, and spoke about the Commission's on-going commitment to driving innovation in the region.
Large corporates, it's clear, have a significant role to play in this – and events and accolades like the Startup Star awards can serve as an important reminder.
Corporate co-innovation
One of the best things about the event was the opportunity to actually meet with other corporates and share ideas on how best to work with start-ups and make innovation – and co-innovation – a reality.
There was a real focus on this aspect of the meet-up as we split into working groups to tackle problems together, along with start-up founders and investors too.
Many of those present had similar views on the approach to innovation. In short, it's about being fast, dynamic, not top-down (the government is not going to do the work for you), and engaging properly with the wider ecosystem.
Equally, there was unanimous agreement that innovation can't happen in silos anymore – open innovation is the new status quo.
We could all agree that the case for more open innovation is a strong one, but that it does make things more complex.
It presents the need to change mind-sets and improve understanding of how to overcome incumbent resistance to a more fluid approach to work and a risk-averse approach to adopting – or just trying out – new business models.
Beyond this, we need to think more broadly about innovation.
It's not just about coming up with a new product or solution, we need to innovate with our business models and processes and the way we do things too.
But let's face these facts, and face them together – learning from our shared experiences too. It'll be more effective and lucrative for everyone in the long run.
Corporates won't achieve all of this alone, though. Policy makers can provide the right incentives for better science and better innovation, and that is what the European Commission and governments around Europe are focusing on.
A key value the European Commission, and other relevant national, regional and local bodies can also offer is the opportunity to bring different groups together – government, SMEs, public organisations, academia and more – to tackle shared challenges.
There are plenty of examples of this within Cisco's innovation programme, perhaps most notably the CityVerve smart city demonstrator in Manchester – delivered by a consortium of more than twenty cross-sector organisations, and funded by Innovate UK.
Equally, our innovation centres across the UK and Europe provide hubs within which these diverse partners can work and innovate together. They also represent Cisco's commitment to and involvement in the broader innovation ecosystem.
Start-ups, of course, are a key fixture in this. And awards like the Corporate Startup Stars provide a reminder of the need to synergise effectively with exciting and innovative new companies.
Working with start-ups, and the way we work with them, is a vital part of Cisco's innovation strategy.
Cisco is a global company, yes, but we're also genuine players in the local markets that we operate in.
We're embedded in these ecosystems, and putting our energies into helping them flourish – that means jobs, economic growth, and supporting innovation wherever it can thrive. It's part of remaining competitive, and encouraging the flow of new blood into the system.
It's something we feel this award shows recognition of, and something that differentiates us from many of our 'Big Tech' counterparts.
The global stage
And as for the bigger picture of where Europe and its start-ups stand in the global innovation stakes, it's clear that the US is still leading the way, with Silicon Valley raising 39% of capital compared to London's 13%, according to Mind the Bridge.
But Europe can hold its own. We have a tendency to underestimate our abilities when it comes to innovation, when in actual fact we're leading in many fields of research, development and creative ideation. And the UK is leading Europe when it comes to scaling businesses.
Governments should continue to encourage a reasonable and healthy approach to those who take risk (both entrepreneurs and investors) and focus on creating the conditions (e.g. low capital gains tax, great universities, good tax benefits to angel investors) that allow innovation to happen.
Intra-continental events like those hosted by Mind the Bridge are also vital for sharing experience and expertise to help grow the wider continental ecosystem, and we were proud to be part of it.

Water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH)-related emergency preparedness and outbreak response has become one of the most significant and crucial public health issues in recent history. Emergencies can include natural disasters (for example, hurricanes, floods, and droughts), man-made disasters (for example, chemical spills into waterways), and outbreaks (for example, infections linked to water exposure after a disaster). Preparedness resources include preparedness toolkits, preparedness training, and directions for emergency disinfection of water. Having clean and safe water in an emergency situation to meet drinking, sanitation, and hygiene needs is essential for every person.
For a complete list of natural disasters and how to prepare and respond to them, please visit CDC's Natural Disasters and Severe Weather page.
At least 1 gallon (16 cups) of water per day for each person and each pet. You should consider storing more water than this for hot climates, pregnant women, and persons who are sick.
A 3-day supply of water for each person and each pet. Try to store a 2-week supply, if possible.
A bottle of unscented liquid household chlorine bleach (label should say it contains between 5-6% and 8.25% of sodium hypochlorite) to disinfect your water, if necessary, and to use for general cleaning and sanitizing.
A medicine dropper for measuring the correct amount of bleach.
Toothbrush, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products, and other personal hygiene items.

The doors of your home say a lot about you. Your front door is the first impression of your house that visitors have. What's more, the front door also gives your visitors and guests their first clue about your aesthetic style and personality. Therefore, choosing doors for your house that suit your personality and tastes is very important.
One of the biggest decisions you will need to make is whether you should opt for traditional or contemporary LPD doors for your home.
Want to know more? Let's discuss.
Let's start with the materials used for your doors. Generally, traditional doors are often wooden both internally and externally. While reminiscent of days gone by and a stylish addition to your décor, wooden doors require a lot of care and attention to ensure they stay looking their best.
On the other hand, contemporary doors are just as durable, but are much more weather resistant and have low maintenance and upkeep. Furthermore, they come in many different design and styles.
Once you have settled on a material for, you can move on to the style.
When choosing between traditional and contemporary LPD doors for your home, another important thing to consider is style. The door style you need depends on the exterior of your home.
For instance, a traditional door style may suit if you have a historic or old looking home. On the other hand, if you have a modern and chic exterior then you could opt for a contemporary door style.
When choosing a door style, another important thing to consider is privacy. Many traditional and contemporary styles from our range of LPD doors are designed to give you maximum privacy.
LPD Doors - How do they compare?
When choosing between traditional and contemporary doors, the attributes of the two door types is probably the most important thing to consider.
Depending on how you want your home to appear, these traditional doors can make your home look classic and strong, although they will need to be looked after to ensure they remain weather resistant and durable at all times.
On the other hand, contemporary doors do look modern and chic but that is not at the expense of keeping the heat in or protecting your home.
All of our LPD doors are available in a range of colour schemes and finishes to suit your needs. Whichever style and material you choose, you can rest assured that when you choose from our selection, you are getting the highest quality around.

There are 1.3 million people in the Bay Area who are too poor to meet their basic needs. Many of these people rely on social services just to get by. For many of these individuals, social safety net programs are a critical lifeline that makes the difference between having a place to sleep, food to eat, or clothes to wear.
The social safety net is composed of government agencies, nonprofits, community groups, and many other organizations committed to helping people when they need it most. Over 130,000 of these organizations are human services agencies, each providing critical services – everything from counseling for domestic violence victims to medical services for veterans.
Each of these organizations also serves another important role: referring the people they serve to other social safety net programs that can provide additional or supplemental assistance. Referrals are a critical part of the safety net, and entire organizations, such as those under the 2-1-1 umbrella, are dedicated to connecting (or referring) people to the local resources they need.
Every piece of referral data – such as the location of a service, eligibility, and hours of operation – represents a fiber in the social safety net. Individual organizations and 2-1-1s across the country spend hundreds of hours each year updating their referral data. California alone has 55 registered information and referral organizations, each maintaining a proprietary social service referral directory, each piece a fiber in the net.
Benetech Service Net, a data collaboration platform that makes it easier to share and maintain information on local services, partners with many social service referral providers to aggregate and analyze data that has previously been siloed in proprietary directories. The project, which is still underway, is conducting the first analysis of aggregate data from multiple social service referral agencies across the region.
Many of the directories contain duplicate information on the same social services. Each organization spends time and resources entering and updating the information. Benetech estimates that it can cost as much as $140 for a referral agency to update information about a single service. If ten organizations are independently managing information about the same service and are updating that information twice a year, that's $2,800 to maintain one fiber in the social safety net. Expand that $2,800 to thousands of fibers, and the money spent becomes increasingly significant.
Benetech Service Net seeks to improve this process through a collaborative data management infrastructure. If one agency updates information on a service, all agencies on the platform benefit. Referral agencies spend less money on duplicative data collection and management. Instead, they can focus more resources on providing people with the right information. Additionally, referral agencies and service providers can be more efficient with the data they specialize in as others will contribute supplementary data using the collaboration infrastructure.
Many of the directories have incomplete data on social service providers. For example, one organization may have the name and location for a shelter but it doesn't indicate that the shelter requires a photo id. Such incomplete data leads to service providers turning away people at their doors because they don't meet eligibility requirements.
Above and beyond incomplete data, many organizations may completely lack information on a social service provider. How can a referral agency ensure it is providing the best referral if it doesn't have information on all providers? Even if agencies do have data for each and every service provider, that data may be out of date. Both incomplete data and gaps in data represent a giant hole in the social safety net.
Luckily, referral databases become much more robust when data is aggregated from various referral services and agencies. That's exactly what Benetech Service Net is designed to achieve, whether it's making incomplete data whole or filling data gaps. Every piece of accurate, up-to-date data makes the social safety net stronger while allowing service providers to dedicate more resources to helping the people they serve.
As cuts to local and national social safety net programs loom, agencies and social service referral providers must come together to share their most important resource: data. Meanwhile, we need funders to support Benetech Service Net so the insights detailed above, along with many others, lead to a better social service referral system that serves more people, better. Collaboration is the key, and we look forward to collaborating with more partners and funders to ensure the social safety net programs can catch anyone who falls.

Q: Java method won't return answer in my LCM program So what this program does is take two numbers as input using the Scanner class, and calculates the lowest common multiple of those two numbers. Everything seems to be working, except the lcm method won't return anything. I may have messed something up with my 'break' statements, but I didn't know any other way to get out of the if statement that is nested in a while loop. One more question: Is using a while(True) loop good practice or bad practice? Because I've seen lots of mixed opinions on it. If anyone has any better alternatives to while(True) loops I'd be happy to hear them. Thank you!
// LCM Calculator
// Author: Ethan Houston
// Language: Java
// Date: 2013-12-27

import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class lcm {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("This is a LCM calculator\n");
        System.out.println("Enter your first number: ");
        int firstNumber = scanner.nextInt();
        System.out.println("Enter your second number: ");
        int secondNumber = scanner.nextInt();
        lcm(firstNumber, secondNumber);

    }

    public static int lcm(int one, int two) {
        int counter = Math.min(one, two);
        int initialCounter = counter;
        boolean running = true;
        while (running) {
            if (counter % one == 0 && counter % two == 0) {
                break;

            } else {
                counter += initialCounter;
            }

        }
        return counter;
    }
}

A: You do return something, you're just not printing it. Just try:
System.out.println(lcm(firstNumber, secondNumber));

A: You are not printing the returned value
System.out.println(lcm(firstNumber, secondNumber));

A: As you had written,
lcm(firstnumber, secondnumber);

this method will return an int type value, but in your code, you are not obtaining the returned value in any variable.
So, you should write like this :
int variable=lcm(firstnumber, secondnumber);


A federal jury has found three formerBlackwater contractors guilty of manslaughter and a fourth guilty of murderfor killing 17 Iraqis in Baghdad's Nissour Square on September 16, 2007. The men were private security guards hired to provide security to U.S. government employees at the time.
Lawyers for Blackwater, a private security company from North Carolina, argued that the four men who were driving through Baghdad in an armed convoy on the day, believed that they had come under attack and were simply returning fire to protect themelves.
The men were prosecuted under the Military Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act (MEJA), a law that allows the U.S. courts to hear cases against contractors to the U.S. Department of Defense for crimes committed overseas.
MEJA has also been used against Justin Cannon and Christopher Drotleff who worked for Paravant, a subsidiary of Blackwater for the killing of Romal Mohammad Naiem and Rahib Mirza Mohammad on May 4, 2009. In 2012, the two men were sentenced to 30 months and 37 months in prison respectively.
While most legal experts applauded the verdict, several noted that it did not address bigger issues.
Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont has been pushing for a new law to fill that gap – the Civilian Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act – but to date it has not gathered enough support from other lawmakers.
Meanwhile, the number of private security guards employed by the U.S. government in the War on Terror has dwindled considerably. The U.S. military estimates that there a little over 3,000 working in Afghanistan now, down from over 10,000 a couple of years ago and a similar or greater number in Iraq. Almost two our of three working in Afghanistan now are local employees and thus subject to local laws.

Business Intelligence Indexes Industries Latin Technology Index Technology
Panama Pushes Technology
Abel Halpern September 15, 2011
Government efforts to use technology and lure investors spur boom.
BY ERIC SABO
<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"/>PANAMA CITY -- Panama seeks to remain Latin America's technology leader by expanding Internet use and drawing in companies to transform the capital into a logistics hub. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"/>
The Central American nation replaced Uruguay as having the highest technology level in the region, fueled by a surge of Internet users and computer sales, according to the sixth annual Latin Technology Index from Latin Business Chronicle.
Internet penetration in Panama was up 43 percent and personal computer sales jumped 21 percent, the data show. The index uses 2010 technology data from the International Telecommunications Union, Computer Industry Almanac and the Santiago Chamber of Commerce and population data from the International Monetary Fund and the Population Reference Bureau.
Eduardo Jaen, who heads Panama's National Authority for Government Innovation, attributes the rise to government support for Internet access and success at luring new businesses into the modern capital. More than 60 corporations, including tech giants Dell and 3M, shifted regional headquarters to Panama since a tax exemption law was passed in 2007.
"There's a broad array of companies that have decided to position themselves here and use Panama as a hub," Jean says. "We intend to be ahead of Uruguay for years to come."
President Ricardo Martinelli has made "closing the digital gap" a key priority of his administration. Having established hundreds of free Internet hot spots around the country, the government will start offering discount loans to help workers buy a computer. About 21 percent of Panamanians currently have at least one computer at home, according to 2010 census data.
Martinelli's administration began offering free computers and Internet access in schools, which helped move Panama up one notch on a separate technology index comprised by the World Economic Forum.
Even so, much of the Internet growth is driven by multinational corporations and small start-ups that move to Panama because of lower tax rates and cheaper operating costs.
Panama eased requirements for starting a business in 2007, and some 35,000 individuals and legal entities have since registered as a Panamanian company online, according to government figures. Among those are a growing number of young American web developers and movie production crews that are demanding faster Internet.
Roman Kogan, who runs Internet service provider PaNetma, says that his business has grown 150 percent from last year.
"You can get cheap Internet anywhere, but you can't run a business if it's slow or unreliable," says Kogan, whose company offers connection speeds up to twice as fast as Cable Onda and Cable & Wireless, Panama's two largest providers.
He blames a lack of competition for Internet costs that are higher in Panama than in the United States.
"It's about 20 times more expensive to get a signal connection from Miami to Panama than it is from California to Japan," Kogan says.
Still, Panama's Internet rates are competitive with other Latin American countries and many find they can save money while running a successful business out of the endless sky rise buildings that pop up in Panama City.
"The Internet here is quite reliable and fast enough," says Jesse Schoberg, who moved his web development company, LJ Host, from Madison, Wisconsin to Panama in 2009. Rent, food and basic living expenses are all less than in his home state.
Meanwhile, wireless networks connected by BlackBerries and iPhones allow him to keep working on remote beaches and in the mountains, he added.
"You have the perfect storm for Internet entrepreneurs who want a high quality of life," says Schoberg.
Internet penetration and computer sales are expected to climb as Panama's economic growth outpaces the region. Backed by an expansion of the Panama Canal, finance officials predict at least 9 percent growth this year.
The boom has caused an envious problem: too many companies are understaffed. While unemployment hovers above 9 percent in the U.S., Panama's is 5.4 percent, leaving banks and other industries that rely on technology without enough workers. Officials say they are looking at ways to attract foreign skilled labor, which should propel further Internet use and computer sales.
While Panama's Internet is up to speed now, the basic tech infrastructure needs improvement to handle more online traffic, said Mario Ernesto of Solusoft, a Panama-based company that is advising the government how to convert paper records to digital formats.
It will need to improve fast. Martinelli is investing heavily in construction to fuel growth, more companies are moving in, and hotels including the Trump Ocean Club and Hard Rock are opening their doors to tourists who want to check email.
"We are advancing," says Jean of Panama's technology agency. "The government is committed to growth."

Patient perspectives

In an ironic twist, a stroke nurse's life was saved in his own JFK Medical Center stroke unit. Phillip Castillo, RN, has a scar on the right side of his skull that curls like a question mark, a reminder of how little he used to understand about the plight of his patients in the stroke unit at JFK Medical Center.
That was before he became one of them. In a highly unlikely twist of fate, Phillip, a nurse at JFK since 2015 and resident of Aberdeen Township, New Jersey, suffered a potentially catastrophic stroke at age 30 while working in the Stroke and Telemetry Observation Unit. What happened next not only reinforced the expertise and teamwork exemplifying JFK's prestigious Stroke and Neurovascular Center, but ultimately offered Phillip invaluable insight about the neurology patients he cares for. By all accounts, his experience made him a better nurse.
"My curiosity, my questions kept growing. I had wondered what it's like for patients to not be able to lift their arm after a stroke, or what it feels like to need a tube in your throat to breathe," recalls Phillip, now 32. "I used to look at people with scars on their head and wonder what they went through. Today, I'm a stroke nurse who had a stroke in a stroke hospital—that's why I'm alive."
Colleagues Jump Into Action
It was Nov. 25, 2016—Black Friday—and the last hour of Phillip's shift when disaster struck. Set to begin a coveted role the following Monday in a perioperative training program for nurses, he felt a headache come on. Seemingly typical at first, the pain progressively worsened to the point where Phillip, still finishing paperwork from his shift, placed an ice pack on his head.
"Then it got to the point where it was the worst headache I've ever had," says the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary and bassoonist. "I texted that to my wife, and when I saw the words it was like a flashback to my nursing textbook to the section about hemorrhagic stroke."
The vast majority of strokes, called ischemic strokes, are caused by clots in the blood vessels within the brain that hinder blood flow to vital cells. But hemorrhagic strokes, while less common, can be equally devastating. They occur when blood vessels in the brain leak or burst, leading to bleeding in or around the brain. Phillip had no idea he was born with a tangle of abnormal blood vessels connecting arteries and veins in the brain known as an AVM, or ateriorvenous malformation. His stroke occurred when his massive AVM ruptured.
Ten feet from the nurse's station, "every symptom hit me at the same moment," he explains. Dizzy, violently nauseous, and feeling his face droop and left side become paralyzed, Phillip urgently called out to his colleagues for help.
"The ER team was on the way up, and by the time the stretcher got to me I couldn't function," he says. "I felt someone throw me on the stretcher and I threw my phone to the secretary with my good hand and said, 'Call my wife.' The next thing I knew, it was Sunday."
'One-stop Shopping' Enhances Recovery
For the next two days, gravely ill and connected to a breathing tube, Phillip received cutting-edge care in JFK's Emergency Department and Neurocritical Care Unit. His brain was so swollen from the stroke that doctors performed surgery to stabilize the bleeding, placing the piece of skull bone removed during the procedure into a bone freezer for safekeeping. Phillip's brain needed that extra space and time— free from the skull's normal confines—to recover. "Otherwise the swelling, which continues to get worse for three to five days, almost certainly would have progressed to the point of brain death or permanent injury," says neurologist Jawad Kirmani, M.D., director of the JFK Stroke and Neurovascular Center.
Phillip was clearly in the right place, since the facility is the first stroke center in the tri-state area designated as a Comprehensive Stroke Center by the Joint Commission. "The notion that 'time is brain' definitely applies in Phillip's case," Dr. Kirmani says. "He was extremely lucky his stroke happened on the stroke floor. Having such a devastating hemorrhagic stroke and coming out so intact had a lot to do with being in the right hospital where there was a stroke system in place for him to be taken care of rapidly."
Awakened from heavy sedation, Phillip learned firsthand what it was like for a patient's breathing tube to be suctioned and to not be able to fully move his left side. Vision impaired, he walked headfirst into a wall—a helmet protecting his soft spot—the first time he moved about with a walker. Physical and occupational therapists at JFK's inpatient rehabilitation center worked intensively with him over the following weeks to help him recover and prepare for life at home, as well as for additional surgery.
"Every piece of my stroke recovery, until I came back to work, was all in that one building. The one stop shopping [feature] for neurology is incredible at JFK," Phillip says. "If I'd had to transfer somewhere, it would have been so much harder for me and my family. I had direct access to my neurologist, my rehab doctors and everyone else in the same place. It makes the care so much easier and fluid."
Bonding With Patients
Phillip regained his ability to move his left side before his next operation in January 2017, which paved the way for a near-complete recovery. First, Dr. Kirmani injected a glue-like material into tiny blood vessels around Phillip's remaining AVM to "dry them out" before neurosurgeon Thomas Steineke, M.D., chairman of the JFK Neuroscience Institute, performed a lengthy operation to remove the mass and replace his skull flap.
More than two years later, the lingering physical effects from Phillip's stroke are minor. He can't see from the bottom left quarter in both eyes but is still able to drive, work and live normally. Learning new information is also harder than before, although Dr. Steineke notes, no one other than Phillip himself would notice.
"He has done phenomenally," Dr. Steineke says. "The fact that he called his own stroke is amazing, but because he was so rapidly treated, it really preserved his brain function and allowed him to recover."
"Certainly, Phillip immediately bonds with patients with similar conditions," Dr. Steineke adds, noting that Phillip regularly assists him in the OR during neurosurgeries.
"I think he gives them hope you can have this very complex condition, undergo treatment and lead a full life."
For his part, Phillip takes this new mentorship role very much to heart, participating in stroke advocacy events, happily explaining the story behind his scar and using his experience to enhance the care he gives patients. "One big rule about being a nurse, especially at bedside, is you should never say to a patient, 'I understand,' unless you've been there," he says. "I know what it's like to be a neuro patient. It helps you get through the hard cases, when you know you can connect with someone and help them feel better. I do have that piece now."

Gravestone of Leon A. Turner (1890-1916), Mt. Olive Cemetery, Portsmouth, Va.
In Mt. Olive Cemetery, established in 1879, there's a gravestone standing within the broken remnants of a family plot, shaded by a large tree. Both the gravestone and tree bear visible evidence of their respective ages: the stone is covered in biological growth, and the tree by a dense grouping of liana. However, if you lean in closely, the faint inscription can still be read.
Beneath the primary inscription are the first two lines from a hymn, "O what is life? – 'tis like a flower," written by English poet Jane Taylor (1783-1824).
I'd rediscovered Leon's gravestone recently while skimming through six years of photos for Mt. Olive cemetery. I'd seen it so often before, but on that day I'd paused, and let my eyes linger over the details of the stone. Just what was it that caught my attention? Then I realized why. It was his date of death, the 30th of March, 1916. Leon had passed away exactly 100 years ago this month. And he was only twenty-six years old.
He was born Leon Alexander Turner, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Charles Turner, also of Pennsylvania, and Weadie (Weedie) Jones, of Portsmouth, Virginia, daughter of Allen Jones and Mary Craig. The family was never rich or famous, and they don't turn up very often in genealogical documentation. They are like the majority of people buried in African-American cemeteries, those that history often forgets, whose voices and contributions to their communities may be lost when the cemeteries in which they rest aren't preserved, or are destroyed through neglect and development. Leon's father, Charles Turner, has proven most elusive, and while Leon's place of birth is recorded as Philadelphia, neither he nor Weadie are documented in Pennsylvania records. As an adult, Weadie Turner only surfaces by the early 1900s back in Tidewater, Virginia, employed as a domestic. Leon turns up twice, through announcements of his marriage in 1909 to Zelia Bishop Murray, a native of Anne Arundel County, Maryland, daughter of William Henry Murray, of Prince George County, Virginia, and Rosa Lee Murray, of Washington, D.C. The Portsmouth City Circuit Court has a record of the marriage, and the April 1st, 1909 edition of the New York Age carried an announcement of the nuptials.
Zelia's mother Rosa Lee, like Leon's mother Weadie, worked as a domestic, while her father William Henry was a private coachman to a banker, and later served in the Navy as a cabin steward aboard the USS Tennessee and U. S. Flagship Chicago.
By 1910, Leon's wife Zelia is recorded living with her mother Rosa Lee and other siblings in Washington, D. C., listed as an "attendant" in the household of Vivian H. Tibbs (ca. 1848-1923), a chauffeur and Virginia-native who, years later, died tragically in a flash flood that swept through the Anacostia District of Washington, D. C. on the evening of March 17, 1923. Between 1910 and 1916, Zelia's father William Murray's absence in the household can be explained by his Naval service, but I've not found any information on Leon's whereabouts during this period.
Within six years of his marriage to Zelia, Leon had passed, and was buried in Mt. Olive Cemetery. According to his death certificate, he was described as a general laborer, and had succumbed to complications of pulmonary tuberculosis. William Grogan, a local established undertaker, and a former owner of Portsmouth's Fishers Hill Cemetery, handled the funeral arrangements. Sadly, Leon's mother Weadie Jones Turner died only three years later, also from pulmonary tuberculosis. She is interred in Mt. Calvary Cemetery, immediately adjacent to Mt. Olive Cemetery. Unlike her son's gravesite, Weadie's has not been found.
I was a bit frustrated over being unable to find more information on the family. Sure, Leon and his relatives aren't a part of my own lineage, but as I continued to dig for information, they began to feel like family. Stubbornly, I reviewed the records I'd already found, hoping for new insight. While studying Weadie's death certificate, a small detail caught my eye. It was the surname of her mother Mary, given as "Craig." On Weadie's death certificate, it's misspelled, and reads "Kreg." Craig. I'd seen the surname before, a Portsmouth family I'd studied several years ago. Was Weadie possibly related to them? Genealogy research doesn't often resolve itself in such a tidy fashion. But most of my initial research efforts into Leon and Weadie had proven fruitless. Could it be that the genealogy Gods were going to be kind after all? Maybe?
The Craig Family in question concerns Civil War Navy veteran Thomas Craig (1831-1896), born free in Delaware, the subject of my inaugural blog post. Thomas is also buried in Mt. Olive Cemetery. I remembered that he'd had a wife named "Mary." With fingers crossed, and using the 1870 estimation of Weadie's birthdate, I looked to the 1880 Federal Census record I'd saved in my Craig Family file.
And there she was! Ten year old Weadie, spelled "Weeddie" in the census record, living in the household of Thomas and wife Mary, listed as his adopted daughter.
This discovery provided another window into Leon's ancestry, through his mother Weadie's lineage. With previous research conducted into Thomas Craig's life, I'd discovered his wife Mary Craig was born Mary Manger, about 1845, to parents James Manger and Violet Rivers, in Brunswick County, Virginia. She remained in Portsmouth most of her life, and passed away in 1910. Through his mom Weadie, it's very likely that Leon A. Turner has maternal ties to Brunswick County as well, although it may also mean that, sadly, he'd lost his maternal grandmother Mary Craig only one year after his marriage to Zelia.
Several questions about Leon A. Turner remain. I still don't anything about his father, Charles, or his exact whereabouts for most of his adult life. I'm also not sure how Weadie's father, Allen Jones, maternal grandfather to Leon, fits into Mary Craig's timeline, and Leon's connection to Weadie and her parents needs to be verified. However, I'm happy to know a little more about Leon beyond the etchings on his faded gravestone. As part of the long-standing preservation process for the Mt. Calvary Cemetery Complex, I have studied hundreds of family genealogies for the people buried in the historic site, and can now add Leon's narrative to the fascinating tale of one of Portsmouth's first African American institutions, a site still in dire need of preservation, yet has so much to offer to regional and national history.
