Ireland is against reducing European Union cohesion funding in the next financial cycle and, like Hungary, backs tax policy as a national competence, Szabolcs Takács, the state secretary for EU affairs of the Prime Minister's Office, said on Thursday.
Takács met Helen McEntee, Ireland's minister of state for European affairs, as well as members of the Irish parliament's EU committee, and gave a talk at the Institute of International and European Affairs in Dublin.
He told MTI by phone that Brexit was a topic of the talks and he told his counterpart that Hungary, like Ireland, had an interest in seeing an orderly withdrawal. Budapest also supports Dublin in opposing a hard border between Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Takács also asked Ireland to show solidarity to Hungary in matters concerning it, including when it came to budget negotiations. Ireland, he added, held the position that cohesion funding and farming subsidies should be maintained.
In the context of the European Parliament elections, Takács noted that Hungary is committed to the principles of a "traditional Christian democracy" and sees Europe's future in supporting families rather than migration.
Also, both Ireland and Hungary want tax policy to remain a national competence, he said, adding that neither Dublin nor Budapest would accept a "federal bureaucracy in Brussels" subsuming tax policy under EU law.

These can be used for SMTP server cert fingerprinting, or you can use secure mode to communicate with my server, instead of opportunistic encryption without certificate authentication.
Cert is valid till 22.09.2015, as usual I also renewed private keys, and now whole cert chain is using SHA-2 / SHA-256. Also RSA keys are 4096 bit and Elliptic Curve keys are at least 256 bits. Ephemeral ECDHE or DHE session key negotiation is used whenever possible. But you'll see all that from SSL Report.
Now Qualys SSL LABS SSL Report nicely says that my server is A+ class.
I haven't yet bothered to configure DANE as one of my friends has done. Configuring DANE or OCSP would be nice, but I think weather is still too nice for that. But I have verified that my server properly uses DANE for domains which have it configured. So you can use tls_policy dane-only for such domains to verify that email isn't being sent without encryption.

Consultation underway
PUBLIC consultation on Future Healthcare in Eastern Cheshire is well underway and top health chiefs are urging everyone to take part.
This formal consultation, which will run for 13 weeks to Wednesday, May 3, is seeking the views of everyone with an interest in local health services on three options for change - options one, two and three.
All three options see the retention of A&E at Macclesfield Hospital, also providing a wide range of diagnostic, out-patient and day care facilities on the site.
Peter Cubbon, Chief Executive of the Future Healthcare Project, said: "The public have already helped us to shape the proposed options through their interest so far. This consultation is another opportunity for people to tell us what they want from their local health services for the next ten to 15 years and which option they prefer."
He stressed the project was not about saving money but investing in and enhancing local health services whilst providing more care for people with long term conditions in the community or as close to home as possible.
Mr Cubbon added that proposals in Future Healthcare in Eastern Cheshire were in line with the Government White Paper 'Our Health, our care, our say', published on January 30, which spelt out a new direction for community health and care services with better services and more choice for people on their doorstep.
Gary Raphael, acting Chief Executive of Eastern Cheshire Primary Care Trust, which is leading the consultation in association with East Cheshire NHS Trust and Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Trust, said: "We are proposing to transfer just over £8m from hospitals to the community to strengthen services in the community. This is what community staff want us to do so they can take care of more people in their own homes. We believe they and our GP colleagues will be very pleased about these proposals and this 'direction of travel'".
John Wilbraham, Chief Executive of East Cheshire NHS Trust, added: "Our staff are proud of the service they provide but recognise there are constraints and they also recognise the need for change because of issues such as the European Working Time Directive. Most of our staff live in the area and we are actively encouraging them to go to the public meetings and hopefully they will be as involved as the rest of the public in having their say."
A 'Future Healthcare' summary is being delivered to more than 90 per cent of households throughout Eastern Cheshire, but a more technical document is available on request.
Eastern Cheshire PCT has produced a summary of the Making It Better public consultation document, which is being delivered with the Future Healthcare summary to households.
Joint meetings on Future Healthcare in Eastern Cheshire and the separate, but linked, Making It Better consultation will be held throughout February and March.
Making It Better concerns proposed changes to children's inpatient, maternity and neonatal services and the consultation is seeking people's views on five options - Option D would see the retention of these services at Macclesfield Hospital, Options A, B and C would see these services move elsewhere and Option E would see no changes.
Public meetings in Macclesfield - where people can have their say on both consultations - take place on Monday, February 13, at Fallibroome High School on Priory Lane, from 7pm, and on Wednesday, February 22, from 10am at Macclesfield Library on Jordangate.
People can also have their say on the Future Healthcare in Eastern Cheshire options by filling in the pre-paid response forms in the public consultation summary delivered to their door, calling the summary consultation hotline 01625 508398, logging onto the dedicated website www.easterncheshire.nhs.uk , writing to Peter Cubbon, Chief Executive, Future Healthcare Project, Winterton House, Winterton Way, Macclesfield, Cheshire, SK11 OLP or emailing futurehealthcareproject@echeshire-pct.nhs.uk .


Cota completed its Series C investment round with $40 million in funding, the New York City-based healthcare analytics startup confirmed Feb. 21.
IQVIA, a Durham, N.C.-based healthcare technology and contract research services provider, led the funding round with major participation by EW Healthcare Partners, a New York City-based pharmaceutical company focused on oncology.
New York City-based Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center also participated in the funding round, along with a group of existing investors. Memorial Sloan Kettering entered into a multiyear partnership with Cota in November, under which the cancer center will provide the startup with anonymized clinical data.
Cota's leadership team plans to use the Series C funding to scale its solution across healthcare providers, payers and life sciences companies. Cota's solution helps healthcare organizations apply precision medicine by categorizing patient demographic factors, diseases and therapies.


Here's an outstanding must-read article from Spiegel, perhaps Germany's most influential paper. Spiegel argues that Europe used to have a fearful respect of the Tories but those days have long since passed. Now, it argues, the weakened party may have accidentally killed off Brexit, a pet project that most party leaders didn't want in the first place.
John Gelmini and I both left the UK in the seventies to find our way in the world, knowing that opportunities were blocked in the UK.
Margaret Thatcher was my local MP for a while and I'm proud to say that I met her at a Conservative Party function. Unlike now, there was a time when Conservative politicians talked of convictions and public service.
As this blog has argued, there were faults with Thatcher and Reagan's raw neoliberalism but they were years of spectacular national growth too. I had hoped that David Cameron might be a compassionate neoliberal but he proved too weak. We know that Conservatives have a liking for blood, perhaps it's a time for a knife in May's back?
BUT there's an elephant in the room, namely that 'no Brexit' is preferable to Soft Brexit?


Holding his predecessor Parkash Singh Badal squarely responsible for Kotkapura and Behbal Kalan police firing incidents, chief minister of Punjab Captain Amarinder Singh has vowed "to go at the Akali patron hammer and tongs and fix him". Amarinder dismissed Badal's statement that he was ready to swear that he did not know about the police firing as a "gimmick". He said Badal was trying to divert public attention from his role in the incident.
"As per the commission's findings, 22 calls were made to Badal before the firing took place. If something happens in my state, then as CM I cannot take refuge in such lies and should be thrown out if I am not aware of what is happening right under my nose," Amarinder told mediapersons.
Again calling Badal an "expert liar and outright coward", Amarinder dared him to open a debate on sacrilege and firing incidents.The CM said Badal is used to running away whenever he has to face the people, and recalled that when Sikhs were under attack at the time of Operation Bluestar, the former Akali Dal chief had "run away" to Uttar Pradesh.
"The people of Punjab are fully aware of the Badals' strategy of inciting communal clashes in the state ahead of any election. Akalis were playing into the hands of Pakistan's ISI, which wanted to disturb Punjab's peace," he added.
Comments for Capt vows to go at Badals hammer and tongs are now closed.

« On the History of Kindness to Children (1687) | Main | Quiet, the Quietists, and Not Finding a Missing "Principia Mathematica" (1687) »
One Word, Three Un-hyphenated (?!) F's in a Row!
I just came upon this fine word, which for a moment challenged my probably under-corrected vision, and saw that it contained three consecutive f consonants! On a Saturday, cranky with a fever and stiff(f) neck, this was a superb BLAST! Or "blast". Or "b". Anyway the word is Luftschifffahrft and it occurs in the title of a pamphlet by Wenzel Kotzauer, Die Luftschifffahrt und ihre Zukunft, printed in Vienna in 1895.
The forty-page pamphlet is about the future of air flight and as fixed-winged aircraft rather than airships, noting in particular the 1894 Hiram Maxim "aeroplane1". The Maxim machine was prodigious, and was mainly built for testing purposes—it weighed 3 to 4 tons, carried two steam engines that generated 180hp (!) and had pushing props that were 17.5' in diameter, making the thing a beast-and-a-half. It was fixed to a very wide two-track system to keep it from lifting off the ground when the engines were running—or to keep it from careening around out of control. In any event, Maxim's dream machine didn't make it very far and was dismantled after a few years. (He also attempted an unsuccessful return to heavier-than-air flight in 1910.)
But back to the three Fs. "Luftschifffahrt", which translates basically to "airplane" or perhaps "aeroplane", and thus the title is about Airplane/ship/aeroplane Travel in the Future. Or thereabouts. It is a technical work, with much on the actual "aeroplane", which in its first use were the wings, and here there is much discussion on their size and shape.
What most interests me though are the repetitive consonants. They just don't seem to happen in English, naturally, without being hyphenated. (Using the word "un-hyphenated" again I just want to point out its terrific irony!) The word appears with fewer letters as "Schifffahrt", which is simply "shipping".
The most obvious hyphenated candidate for me is "cross-section", which I use often in this blog, though I can't kill the hyphen and pulling the two words together as it makes it look like overstuffed snake-sausage: crosssection. As smaller snake is the person who sees a seer is not a seeer, and Scrabble-challenged words like "zzz" and "brrretc" definitely do not count, noooo sir.
Anyway: fff.
1. In general at this time "aeroplane" referred to the wings/airfoils of a plane, not so much as an aircraft itself. Mostly, it seems. The Oxford English Dictionary says that the first use of the word in this sense occurs in 1866, with a useful explanation of it found two years later:
All of the following come from the Oxford English Dictionary:
1868 3rd Ann. Rep. Aëronaut. Soc. 36 He had turned his attention to the wing and to the sustainer, or what he might call the aëroplane.
1894 O. Chanute Progress in Flying Machines 237 This main aeroplane..is trussed and stiffened in every direction by wire stays.
1905 G. Bacon Balloons 111 What are called 'aeroplanes'—large flat surfaces, light but rigid inclined at a suitable angle to the horizon.
Aeroplane=aircraft/airplane (as a noun) comes at about the same time:
1868 Eng. Mechanic 24 Apr. 91/2 We have yet to see the 'aëroplane' with buoyancy sufficient to sustain 150 lb., or with apparatus sufficiently light and portable to make headway on an 'air plane'... Supposing an aëroplane to have raised itself, if it reared out of equilibium it and the occupant would come to grief.
1873 D. S. Brown in 8th Ann. Rep. Aëronaut. Soc. 17 I think this [sc. impetus] will be more requisite with respect to the aëroplane than any other vehicle.
1873 Ann. Rep. Aëronaut. Soc. 20 Mr. Bennett introduced an Aëroplane invented by a Frenchman, to be worked by a screw by motive power derived from elastic springs.
Finally, "airplane" as a noun comes into existence, or nearly so, in the early part of this past century:
1906 Sci. Amer. 29 Dec. 487/1 Air-plane is a much better word than aeroplane. It is as good etymologically, and much better when it is spoken.
1907 Westm. Gaz. 19 July 4/2 It is this ease of going against the current, with no motive force in evidence, that is..the despair of the aeronauts with their air-planes.
1917 N.A.C.A. (U.S.) Rep. Nomencl. Aeronaut. 31 Airplane..This term is commonly used in a more restricted sense to refer to airplanes fitted with landing gear suited to operation from the land. If the landing gear is suited to operation from the water, the term 'Seaplane' is used.

Under the Bridge Presents
In Association with EFG London Jazz Festival
Explosive American horn-and-percussion trio Moon Hooch – Mike Wilbur (horns), Wenzl McGowen (horns), and James Muschler (drums) – has taken their exhilarating blend of virtuosic jazz, groovy funk, and pulse-pounding electronic dance music from busking the New York City subway system to stages around the world. Onstage, the band now plays through a "Reverse DJ" setup, in which the live sound from their horns runs through laptops to process recorded effects. In addition, they utilize Moog synthesizers, as well as an EWI (an electronic wind instrument that responds to breath in addition to touch) and other more traditional instruments like clarinets.
Wilbur added vocals to his repertoire, and Muschler, meanwhile, immersed himself in tabla studies in India in order to expand his percussion skills. On 'Red Sky,' their third and most adventurous album to date, the band uses everything they've learned from their whirlwind journey to push their sound to new heights, bringing together the raw, transcendent energy of their live performances and the sleek sophistication of their studio work into a singular, intoxicating brew.

Erex Exchange receives data from meters installed on electric trains — and secures the validity of the data — before allocating and distributing it to infrastructure managers and train operators, according to national and international requirements. To better understand this process of exchange, we spoke with Bjørn Lysne, Exchange Responsible at Eress.
"Exchange, in brief, is an international service which ensures that the energy data that is metered — or measured — on each train is available for use in billing. This means that all parties who would like to invoice based on metered data can do so. Exchange is essentially the crossroads for this metered data," says Mr. Lysne.
"We started with this about twelve years ago, handling multiple countries that had to send their metered data to one another. So, each country needed to communicate with other countries — to get the necessary data — in order to bill the responsible train operators for their energy consumption."
He continues, "We were the first movers of this, but it was out of necessity that we started. Having every meter or system sending data to everyone in an endless variety of special interfaces is not a good way to do it, especially when you consider the lack of efficiency, the potential risks involved, and the technology nightmare it creates. We decided that the best approach was to put a central crossroad — Erex Exchange — in the middle, which would then connect the different metering and settlement systems. This allowed them to easily and securely receive the data and use it for billing purposes. That is the basis for how exchange came to be and why it has grown as big as it is today."
"The difference between the regular energy markets and railway energy markets is that the consumer in the regular energy market is not moving around. Trains, on the other hand, are in motion most of the time — crossing borders into different countries, different grid areas, etc. This is why it is important to have intelligent systems that can handle the values quickly and allocate and export them directly to the correct receiver."

Q: Displaying text in a window with PyQT4 I am trying to make a GUI interface using PyQt4.  I want to be able to send text from my python program and have it be displayed on a window created by PyQt4.
I've been able to input data via a push button, but I would like to be able to write it from my python program.  I can create a window using the self.setGeometry command, and I am fairly sure that the functions I need for writing blocks of text are in the QTextEdit Module (not QLabel, because that's for 1-line sections of text).  The problem is that there are so many functions to use, and I'm new to PyQT (and Python in general, actually) so I don't understand the structure very well yet.  Any help in the right direction would be appreciated!

A: QLabel is used to display texts while QTextEdit is mostly used to get one-line inputs of the user. e.g a form field to indicate that a name must be typed into the input area, QLabel is used as Name :  and the QTextEdit is where the user will type in.
But i think you should first check out layouts and placing methods on PyQt (Qt mostly) and then try create simple GUIs by hand so that'll make you learn basics and all other great tools of Qt, easily.
There is also tool called Qt Designer which is very handy to creat GUIs for PyQt ( & Qt) programs by drag & drop tools.

The new touchdown and positioning lighting system for helidecks (Circle-H) introduced by Orga considerably improves the safety of helicopter pilots, according to a report published recently by the UK Civil Aviation Authority (UK CAA), the CAP 1077. In recent years Orga has been developing the Circle-H in collaboration with the CAA and has tested the system extensively at various test sites. The results of the tests led to the UK CAA making the new touchdown and positioning system mandatory in British territorial waters as from 2018. Jan Piet Stock, General Business Manager at Orga: After a long period of research, development and testing we are now making the first helidecks on platforms safer with the new Circle-H lighting system!


(N.D. Cal. Apr. 27, 2018).
In this class action, the court sanctioned Wal-Mart for late disclosures. Specifically, Wal-Mart gave its experts a "staggering" amount of evidence that it had not timely disclosed to the plaintiffs.
This case concerns a California state law claim about whether Wal-Mart is legally required to provide seats for its cashiers.
During discovery, the plaintiffs requested discovery of information supporting Wal-Mart's claim that cashiers could not reasonably use seats. Wal-Mart produced 87 hours of video footage of cashiers using stools. At least some of this video showed employees or customers being injured by those stools.
The plaintiffs also specifically requested daily productivity reports for all the class members who had been cashiers. Wal-Mart, stating that these reports were "only available temporarily," produced 600 cashier productivity reports.
Wal-Mart certified that its fact discovery was complete. The plaintiffs, relying on that representation, filed their motion for summary judgment after the close of fact discovery.
Months later, Wal-Mart produced three expert reports. The plaintiffs soon realized that Wal-Mart gave its experts "a large amount of information that had never been disclosed" in discovery. Over the next month, that information gradually "trickle[d] in" to the plaintiffs. The court characterized the undisclosed information as "staggering": Wal-Mart's experts reviewed 650 hours of video and 357,450 productivity reports.
The plaintiffs moved for sanctions against Wal-Mart for its failure to timely disclose this additional evidence.
The court agreed with the plaintiffs that the late disclosures were neither substantially justified nor harmless. It concluded that Wal-Mart took no corrective action "on its own initiative." Rather, it only provided the information "after [the] plaintiffs recognized and inquired" about it.
Wal-Mart argued that it did not have to provide the additional video evidence to the plaintiffs until it decided to call that witness to testify. The court rejected this assertion. Regardless of whether Wal-Mart intended to use the videos as evidence, the scope of discovery included the videos. Moreover, Wal-Mart "exacerbated the problem" by depriving the plaintiffs of the video evidence for another eight days. This delay prevented the plaintiffs' expert from reviewing the evidence before his report was due.
In short, the court found that "Wal-Mart withheld a massive amount" of information. That delay precluded the plaintiffs from conducting any follow-up discovery. It also prejudiced their case because the plaintiffs filed for summary judgment based on the incomplete information they had. Further, the plaintiffs' expert had to work "with a proverbial hand tied behind his back" because he was missing a substantial amount of information.
As to the productivity reports, Wal-Mart argued that it was unable to extract those reports until well after the close of fact discovery. The court noted that Wal-Mart made no effort to obtain additional reports until it "decided that the reports would be helpful" to its case. Then, "fully aware that its disclosure was materially incomplete," Wal-Mart failed to advise the plaintiffs about the additional 356,850 reports.
The court excluded Wal-Mart from using either the late-produced evidence or the expert reports that relied on that information. It observed that this "massive" late disclosure was particularly egregious given the plaintiffs' express requests for the withheld information. The court specifically held that this exclusion sanction is not too harsh because it "does not amount to dismissal" of Wal-Mart's claim. Nor would lesser sanctions be adequate to repair the harm. Rather, "exclusion is commensurate with the harm" that Wal-Mart's late disclosures caused.
As to a third expert witness who received a single undisclosed 45-minute video, the court found any delay in production harmless.
The court granted in part and denied in part the plaintiffs' motion for sanctions. It agreed to exclude both the undisclosed evidence and the expert reports relying on that evidence. However, the court did not award the plaintiffs any attorneys' fees or expenses for the motion.
If you find information that you should have disclosed, take immediate corrective action. Don't wait for an opponent to request information that you're obligated to produce. Remember that your duties to the court and its rules should supersede any gamesmanship in a specific case.
We're here to help you master ediscovery, from preservation to production.
