President Donald Trump has not held a wide-ranging news conference since February, instead choosing to keep his media interactions limited to handpicked interviews and short, four-question news conferences with foreign leaders.
But overnight, as he flew from Washington to Paris, Trump sat with reporters and held a roughly hourlong conversation. The reporters on the plane had been told it was off the record, and that's how it was conveyed to the larger White House press pool.
But during a photo spray with French President Emanuel Macron on Thursday, New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman asked a question which had apparently been asked during the flight.
"POTUS asked your pooler why she didn't use what he has said last night. Your pooler reminded him last night was off the record. POTUS asked if I had heard him say it could be on-record; your pooler replied truthfully no (co-poolers also were not under impression it was on-record, since [White House deputy press secretary] Sarah Sanders had declared it off record)," Haberman wrote in her pool report.
Presidents will often hold conversations with reporters aboard Air Force One, and it's not uncommon for them to be off the record. However, Trump is known to change his mind and make a previously off-the-record conversation on the record.
In an Oval Office meeting with POLITICO reporters in April, one aide said the chat was off the record, but Trump insisted, over objections from nervous-looking staffers, that he be quoted. At a reception for conservative media in April, Trump turned the evening into an impromptu news conference, leading to some complaints among some of the reporters who were not prepared.
As the pool was leaving the photo spray, Trump and White House economic adviser Gary Cohn called Haberman back to tell her the communications shop would put "most" of the off-the-record conversation on the record. But Sanders later told her that "excerpts" will be released.
Not all reporters were pleased with that explanation.
"If [White House] puts out excerpts, it means they've put it all on record. Up to those reporters attending to put entire report on record now," tweeted "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd.
A couple hours after Trump asked for the conversation to be put on-record, the White House released some excerpts. But they did not include two portions the pool had requested, which Haberman later provided separately to the email list. Haberman initially said in a pool report that Sanders was going "around the AF1 traveling pool," by not answering the requests and sending the transcript out via the supplemental pool. But in a follow up tweet, Haberman wrote that it was a miscommunication.
"Apologies to @SHSanders45 for a miscommunication among ourselves that she got tagged with in a pool report as doing an end-run. She did not," Haberman wrote.
Sanders did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Pensacola Dam was Oklahoma's first hydroelectric facility, built 1937-40. It is the world's longest multiple-arch dam, with 51 arches and 21 spillways spanning about one mile across the Grand River. Engineers chose the multiple-arch design because materials were scarce and, therefore, expensive. Labor, on the other hand, was abundant and cheap. Some 3,000 men worked on the project, earning about $16 per week. The dam was built by the Grand River Dam Authority, which the state had created in 1935 for that purpose. The dam impounds 66-mile-long Grand Lake O' the Cherokees, one of the largest reservoirs in the U.S.
Fun Fact:In an effort to get a dam across the Grand River, Vinita passed a law requiring all presidential trains to stop if they were passing through. President Franklin D. Roosevelt's whistle-stop re-election tour took him through Vinita in 1936. When his train stopped, FDR was greeted by a banner: "Let's Build Grand River Dam." He okayed funding in 1937.

There are hundreds of pool games. Some of the more well known include eight-ball, nine-ball, ten-ball, straight pool, one-pocket and bank pool.
There are also hybrid games combining aspects of both pool and carom billiards, such as American four-ball billiards, cowboy pool and bottle pool.
As a competitive sport, pool is governed internationally by the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA), which has multi-national, regional affiliates comprising the All Africa Pool Association (AAPA), Asian Pocket Billiard Union (APBU, including the Middle East), Billiard Congress of America (BCA, Canada and the US), Confederation Panamerica of Billiards (CPB, Latin America and Caribbean), European Pocket Billiard Federation (EPBF, including Russia and the Near East), and Oceania Pocket Billiard Association (OPBA, Australia, New Zealand, Pacific islands) The WPA represents pool in the World Confederation of Billiard Sports, which in turn represents all forms of cue sports (including carom billiards and snooker) in the International Olympic Committee.

Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon leaves Italy's squad with injured knee
BY foxsports • June 13, 2015
Goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon has left Italy's squad after injuring his right knee in a 1-1 draw at Croatia.
The Azzurri captain exited the match at halftime after playing with 10 stitches in his knee following an injury on the opening goal.
Buffon also saved a penalty from Mario Mandzukic.
Salvatore Sirigu, who replaced Buffon against Croatia, will likely be the starter for Tuesday's friendly against Portugal in Geneva.
Meanwhile, midfielder Daniele De Rossi could return after sitting out the Croatia match with a minor injury.
Midfielder Marco Verratti, defender Andrea Barzagli and striker Simone Zaza withdrew with injuries earlier in the week.

Movidius, the award-winning mobile multimedia processing specialist, today launched Myriad 3D, its landmark mobile 3D imaging and video platform. Myriad 3D is the first platform in the world to be optimized out-of-the-box to enable a 3D experience in high definition (HD) on mobile devices, allowing handset designers for example to easily produce a whole new generation of 3D-enabled smartphones. The first product in the Myriad 3D platform range is the MA1133, the world's first semiconductor product capable of a range of unique 3D functions: preview, capturing and processing high-quality user generated 3D video and images on a mobile phone; converting any 2D video to 3D in real time, and upscaling and playback of content in HD.
Movidius' Myriad 3D MA1133 silicon and software platform is capable of capturing stereo still photos and video images using two separate high resolution cameras, and then processing them in real-time into 3D, whether still or video, using the powerful multimedia processing technology at the heart of the Myriad 3D platform. The same technology will intelligently process the 3D images for the best viewing experience on a 3D display without glasses (auto-stereoscopic).
MA1133 can also be used to view downloaded 3D or 2D content. Movidius' real-time conversion algorithms ensure an engaging and comfortable 3D viewing experience of 2D content. Movidius' Myriad 3D processing technology delivers excellent matching of the content and the display field depth resulting in a high quality 3D experience and avoiding issues that leave the viewer uncomfortable or even nauseous after prolonged use. Movidius has designed Myriad 3D to deliver an enjoyable and effective viewing experience, including simple switching between 2D and 3D display modes.
3D glasses, absolutely necessary for both TV and cinema 3D experiences, can be expensive and cumbersome and can be seen as a barrier to adoption of 3D. Mobile devices such as smartphones however are typically held at a standard distance from the face; the perfect situation for using auto-stereoscopic screens and means the user can easily adjust the screen orientation to get into the 3D "sweet spot". Also, because of the size of the average smartphone, mobile phone cameras can easily be placed at the perfect eyes' distance apart to achieve excellent 3D image capture using the Movidius Myriad 3D platform for highest quality matching between the cameras.
The 3D capture, image and display processing on the MA1133 all benefit from Movidius' proprietary multi-core processing technology. This technology delivers an unparalleled 20GFlops of processing power; previously unheard of in a mobile device.

Weirdos and What-Nots at the USC Annenberg Innovation Lab Summit 2012
by Meryl Alper
On Friday, March 30, the Cooney Center-partner USC Annenberg Innovation Lab held its annual Innovation Summit. The day-long event brought together the sometimes overlapping, sometimes divergent worlds of academia, private sector, non-profits, and artists to play hands-on with new prototypes and applications from the Lab. We had the pleasure of having JGCC Director of Research Lori Takeuchi join us for the event. Besides the Cooney Center, the Lab's collaborators include IBM, DirectTV, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and international partners such as France Telecom-Orange and transmedia producers The Alchemists.
The Summit focused on two themes: Rethinking Urban Settings (led by Prof. Anne Balsamo) and Experiments in Participatory Cultures (led by Prof. Henry Jenkins.) The projects presented reflected Annenberg's interdisciplinary work in communication, journalism, engineering, cinema, art, education, business, and music. Much of the "playful" work the Lab is conducting intersects with the Cooney Center's research on children, youth, media, literacy, gaming, and civic engagement.
Ernest Wilson, Dean of the Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, spoke about valuing team members that play and think in sometimes unorthodox ways. He advised the attendees in his opening address that, "one of the keys to creating innovative environments: hire weirdos." I immediately thought about some of the great Muppet weirdos and what-nots, and how we can all draw a lot of inspiration from the Muppet Labs. At the Lab, we try to avoid the hazardous-yet-hilarious explosions like the ones set off Bunsen and Beaker. We do though throw a lot of stuff on and at the wall (including full wall projects of Twitter data sets, colorful Post-It notes, and sometimes squishy magnets.)
We believe that the scientific method is inherently playful, and the Lab often invites outside social scientists, researchers, and designers to challenge and play with us in exciting ways. One such person is Kati London, the Lab's new Innovator-in-Residence. A social and civic game developer , Kati is executive producer for Zynga New York and teaches in the Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) at NYU Tisch School of the Arts. Last year, Fast Company named her in the top 25 "Most Creative Person(s) in Business" for her work in making human-computer interaction seamless, screenless, and social through games. At Annenberg, Kati will be lecturing and leading workshops on autonomous objects, networked data, participatory design, and assessing learning outcomes from games. (For more on Kati, click here.)
I was fortunate to be involved in two presentations at the Summit, as a research assistant for the Lab's area of research in children, youth & media and as winner of the Lab's CRUNCH Design Challenge competition. In the morning, I helped lead a project demo through the conceptual design of our Flotsam Transmedia Play Experience, based on the Caldecott Medal-winning wordless picture book by David Wiesner. Our Lab's Managing Director, Erin Reilly, has written a great blog post on our work-in-progress, which has brought together undergraduate, masters, and Ph.D. students across the communication, music composition, marine biology, engineering, and interactive media departments at USC, as well as educators, parents, and children from the LA area. This summer, we plan on writing up a white paper framing new logics of transmedia by sharing our working definitions for transmedia play and learning, and it's complementary nature to transmedia storytelling. Other lab research in the area of children, youth & media include development of the PLAY! (Participatory Learning and You) framework and spreadability of its approach through The PLAYground, a transmedia learning platform.
In the afternoon, I was honored to present on behalf of my partner (Saranyaraj Rajendran, a USC M.S. student in electrical engineering) and myself on our project, the Theia Handheld Braille Aid, which won this year's CRUNCH Design Challenge. The competition brings together interdisciplinary teams to design creative technological solutions for pressing human needs. Raj came to the project through his work in India, home to the world's largest population of blind people at 15 million. I approached the project though my interest in literacy, assistive technology, and accessibility. View a short concept video on Theia. As the Lab's new Startup-in-Residence, we hope in the future to work in partnership with readers and teachers of Braille to develop a device that supports real-time interaction, inclusion, independence, and increased research towards putting "reading within reach" for learners with visual impairments of all ages around the world.
Lastly, I wanted to reflect on a quote from the Summit that I find helpful for framing the innovative research that the Cooney Center supports around digital media and learning for diverse learners.
Amy Heibel, LACMA's Associate VP for Technology and Digital Media spoke about how museums are "public places for people to engage with ideas that are longer lived than themselves." Museums around the world are at the forefront of developing immersive educational media experiences for all children across social class, race, ethnicity, language, gender, and ability. Through these public spaces and the communities that gather there, children have the potential to participate in constructing, deconstructing, and reconstructing ideas that came before them and ideas they will leave behind for future generations. (Speaking of artifacts from past generations, does anyone else remember the Sesame Street 1983 classic, Don't Eat the Pictures, shot at the Metropolitan Museum of Art?)
As we move into the summer and next school year, we at the USC Annenberg Innovation Lab are excited to continue our collaboration with the Cooney Center and blend our shared interests in participatory practices and transmedia play and storytelling in relation to learning. Look out for many more new developments at next year's Innovation Summit!

This paper proposes an Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Curriculum Meta-Framework to operate at the senior secondary school level in New Zealand. This meta-framework arises from the Fluency in Information Technology ("FITNZ") Project, a collaborative venture between tertiary and secondary sector educators, government and industry. The initiative is intended to address the poor alignment between tertiary education and the Information Technology needs of the industry sector. The confused perceptions of ICT and the fragmented and uneven state of computing education at the secondary level have contributed to the disparity between tertiary education and industry needs. The paper draws on previous work on IT fluency. It also positions the computing disciplines within the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM) computing curricula 2005 document in order to propose a soundly based set of graduate outcomes.

Hey, Jean Marie, Your sweater looks like my circle sweater I made a while back.
The cardigan I made is from the pattern you sent me for the semi circle sweater and the pattern wasn't in English so you sent me one that was in English and that's the pattern I made the sweater from.
Hi Jean Marie, Oh I forgot I gave you that pattern you and I have shared many dresses and other patterns so I cannot keep up. Anyway I Like your sweater. Just to let you know my little one loved the hat she didn't want to take it off.
Thanks. Glad your little one liked the hat you made.
Hi Did I mention that i was glad to see your cute sailor dress again it is so cute even if you did say it was buttoned wrong.
I think you would do well with the American Girl Doll dresses. I remember when my older granddaughters were little they both had a doll and the dresses were so expensive. My little granddaughter is very girly and loves pretty clothes and all girl things except toys. She prefers her brothers hot wheel little cars. Although she does have some Barbie dolls.

LIHI Certificate #146 – Essex 19 Project, Vermont
The Essex 19 Project is located on the mainstem of the Winooski River in the towns of Essex Junction and Williston, in Chittenden County, Vermont. The Winooski River flows to the northwest into Lake Champlain. The dam was built at the Hubble Falls between 1913 and 1917, however a dam has been at this location since the late 18th century. The original dam washed out in 1798, and another dam was built just upstream of the current location. Sometime after 1830 a timber dam was built just downstream of the current dam location. The project is located downstream of nine other hydroelectric projects including the Winooski No. 8 project (LIHI #77). Continuing downstream, there are two further hydropower projects, one of which is the Winooski One (Chace Mill) project (LIHI #16). The Essex 19 project is owned by Green Mountain Power (GMP), the first energy utility certified as a B-Corporation.
The Project includes a concrete gravity dam, spillway, six penstocks, powerhouse, four Francis-type turbines, one minimum flow unit, bypassed reach, and fish passage facility.
The dam is 495-feet-long with a 345-foot-long by 45-foot-high uncontrolled spillway section topped with 5-foot-high inflatable flashboards, and an 84-foot-long by 45-foot-high tip section topped with 6.5-foot-high inflatable flashboards. Two 3-foot-diameter steel/diversion penstocks and four 9-foot-diameter steel/diversion penstocks extend from the dam to the powerhouse. The powerhouse contains four horizontal Francis-type turbines as well as a minimum flow unit located in an old unused exciter unit bay, which is a double horizontal Francis-type turbine. Total installed capacity is 8.05 MW.
The project operates largely as a modified peaking facility with seasonal run-of-river operations and impounds a 352-acre reservoir. Flows vary seasonally:
From May 16 – June 15 the project provides a minimum flow of 1,000 cfs, or inflow if less, for the protection of Atlantic sturgeon spawning and incubation habitat.
From June 16 – March 31 the project provides a minimum flow of 450 cfs, or inflow if less, for the protection of salmonid habitat.
From April 1 – May 15 the project operates in a run-of-river mode with a minimum flow of 50 cfs or inflow if less, into the bypassed reach via the fish passage facility (since installation of the minimum flow unit, the project releases all flows less than 100 cfs to the bypassed reach via the downstream fish passage facility). Outflow approximates inflow on an instantaneous basis for the protection of walleye spawning and incubation habitat.
Project Name Essex 19
LIHI Certificate Term October 31, 2018 – October 30, 2028
Owner Green Mountain Power Corporation
State Vermont
Location River mile 17.6 on the mainstem of the Winooski River in the townships of Essex Junction and Williston, Chittenden County, Vermont.
Installed Capacity 8.05 MW
Facility Type Modified peaking
FERC No. P-2513 issued 1995, expires 2025
The project is licensed for limited peaking operations between May 16 - March 31, but GMP does not operate the project for peaking. When river flow is greater than 275 cfs, flows are released through both the bypass (via the downstream fish passage facility) and turbines. When river flows are greater than 100 cfs flows are released through both the bypass and the minimum flow unit, and when flows are below 100 cfs flows are released through the bypass. This flow regime was developed in consultation with Vermont Agency of Natural Resources (VANR) to ensure the protection of aquatic habitat.
Waters within the project reach, both upstream and downstream of the project, are classified as impaired due to E. coli presence. However, VANR has determined that the impairment is not due to project operations. The downstream impairment is caused by the City of Burlington and City of Essex combined sewer overflows and the upstream impairment similarly is caused by the Montpelier Wastewater Treatment Facility overflows.
The Winooski River and the Lake Champlain Basin once hosted many anadromous fish species such as Atlantic sturgeon and Atlantic salmon. However, habitat destruction and overfishing effectively extirpated these species from the area around 150 years ago. Efforts have since been made to provide land-locked salmon passage from Lake Champlain into rivers for spawning. The project owner coordinates with the Winooski One fish lift project to aid the salmon population's migration. The trap and truck operation costs are shared between facilities and the salmon are released upstream of the project. Temporary downstream passage measures were implemented in July 2018 with a temporary weir structure. Construction of more permanent structures were made in 2019 with consultation from US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and VANR. The owner incorporated recommendations from these agencies into the permanent downstream fish passage weir and shifted the downstream passage season as requested by USFWS. Trashracks with one-inch spacing mitigate the potential for entrainment.
The project lands consist of roughly 4.5 acres. While there are no lands of significant ecological value in the project area, a landscape management plan governs the vegetation management at the project. This plan ensures the blending of project works into the landscape as well as maintenance of vegetation around the powerhouse and bypassed reach.
Threatened or endangered species potentially within the project vicinity include the Northern Long-eared bat, Indiana Bat, Cobblestone Tiger Beetle, Boott's Rattlesnake Root, and Tri-colored Bat. Project flow operations do not interfere with any of the above species and there is a lack of suitable habitat within the project boundary for any of the listed species.
The project infrastructure, including the dam, intake structure, penstocks, and powerhouse, is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. These structures represent the pre-World War 1 formative years of the hydroelectric industry in Vermont. Annual reports of activities conducted under the project's cultural resources management plan are filed with the Vermont Division for Historic Preservation and FERC.
Recreational resources at the project include a canoe portage, boat ramp, day use area, and interpretive signage. Public access is provided free of charge.

As the trend gains popularity, Lounge finds out what's causing the craze behind false lashes

Know the difference between dramatic lashes and everyday lashes. (Photo: Daniel Bauer Academy)
By Dhara Vora Sabhnani
For Mumbai-based marketing professional and restauranter Vandana Pujary, the thought of trying out false lashes always seemed like a tempting quick route to add instant glam to her naturally big eyes. Her birthday gave her the perfect opportunity to give them a try and Pujary couldn't have been happier. "I loved it. (The shape I picked) gave so much volume to my lashes and I didn't need to do anything other than apply some mascara, no curling too. I even contemplated getting lash extensions, which last longer, but stopped myself, thinking this would just be a start to a whole set of other treatments," says Pujary, for whom lash extensions promised to be a time-saver.
A strip of glam
If you have ever been trapped in a loop of watching beauty tutorials on Instagram, it's difficult to miss the lure of applying strip lashes that somehow pull together even the wildest eye make-up looks. Regardless of your eye shape, the many styles and sizes that have been on offer in the international market present solutions to open up both small eyes and hooded eyes. Such is the craze for lashes that you will find several videos dedicated to finding the right lash glues too.
Despite our love for eye make-up (India is one of the biggest markets for kohl pencils in the world), lashes had been restricted to fashion shoots and weddings—for a long period, we only had access to dramatic lashes. The story, however, is different today.
From street cosmetic vendors who peddle copies of internet beauty brands like Kylie Cosmetics on Mumbai's Linking Road to high-end beauty aisles, everyone is selling lashes. The newest entrant in the market is online beauty portal Nykaa.com, which has added 10 different styles of reusable false lashes to its own brand of cosmetics. And the range offers both ends of the spectrum—everyday as well as intense lashes for high-glam looks.
"The global false eyelashes market size is expected to reach $1.6 billion (around ₹11,400 crore) by 2025," according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., registering a 5.4% CAGR (compound annual growth rate) during the forecast period. Asia Pacific is expected to remain one of the lucrative markets through 2025, exhibiting the highest CAGR of 6.6% from 2019-25. "Growing awareness of evolving beauty trends and availability of new and more effective products in countries like India, China, South Korea and the Philippines will drive the regional false eyelashes market," says Reena Chhabra, CEO, Nykaa Brands.
The company, which had been selling lashes by other brands—dramatic lashes are best-sellers—was tempted to enter the field after consumer insights indicated lashes were being adopted for everyday looks if they were easy to use. Some were opting for cosmetic lash extensions at salons too.
In January, actor Jacqueline Fernandez dabbled in the business by collaborating with Huda Beauty (the brand, by Iraqi-American beauty influencer Huda Kattan, incidentally started by selling lashes) to launch a lash style named after her. But since luxury lashes can only be used five-six times, people don't always want to splurge on them. So Nykaa chose to launch an affordable line, which includes glue, to encourage first-time users.
Make-up artist Daniel Bauer (Daniel Bauer academy)
Do it right
When it comes to falsies, celebrity hair and make-up artist Daniel Bauer prefers applying individual lashes in the right spots to give a natural, custom-eye look rather than go in for strip lashes—he believes extremely long false lashes can make your make-up look dated. The best way to use strip lashes is to first cut them to the desired length, but amateurs may not know this, so your eyes could end up looking smaller instead. "Almost all of my clients opt for single lashes as they give you a more believable look, but not everyone can apply them on their own. Fuller, plumper lash strips, if done right, can give an immediate glamorous vibe to your overall look, be it a day or an evening look," says Bauer.
The artist, who works with actors like Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone, says that before picking a style, you should always ask why you need false lashes. Then, apply a few individual lashes on one eye and give yourself a few hours to check if your eyes are sensitive to the glue. "When choosing strip lashes, there are two key things to look out for—are the lashes attached to a clear strip or a black strip? Black strips have a better hold and are more suited for heavy eyelids or monolids. For small and big eyes, I would recommend going for clear strips as they are more delicate, but will give you that volume without an OTT (over the top) look some lashes sadly have," says Bauer. Those with hooded eyes should take special care in picking a style, or just opt for individual lashes in the corner.
If you have the money, Bauer recommends you don't reuse lashes—it will help avoid eye infections.
A coat of mascara can help cover the strip and add extra drama, but remember to curl your lashes before applying mascara or they could snap in half and even pull your real lashes. While lash strips applied with glue (which needs to be used sparingly) can stay put for 12 hours, semi-permanent lashes applied by a professional can last up to two months.
Start by curling your natural lashes. Next, bend the strip gently so that it conforms to your eye shape better. Use a tweezer to place the lash in the middle and then work on the corners, this will offer you a better grip. Always wait for a few seconds for the glue to get a bit gummy for a better grip. "After completing, conceal the glue with a thin liner along the upper waterline, this will make the eyelashes look more natural and hide the glue bits. To take them off, gently rub down with your finger, or you can also use lukewarm water as most glues are water-based. Try not to pull them out, as you might be pulling out a real lash too," advises Bauer.

It's been awhile since I last logged on to Usenet to read some groups and to download stuff. I found this great application called Unison from a company called Panic. And it's great. I even signed up for a Usenet account from them when buying the software. I now have a 10mbit line at home, and no Usenet provider has been able to provide a fast enough service to me, until now. Impressive stuff. The only downside with the account is that you only get 10gig of download. Now, that may sound like a lot, but I get through that fast.
The program feels like a native Mac OS X application, and it's written in Cocoa. It's reasonably fast to search, and the user interface is easy to learn. The same goes for saving links to different newsgroups.
The hair has stopped growing on the palms of my hands; my vision is coming back. I'm now at a stage where I don't use any Microsoft products anymore. I'm currently 100% Microsoft free! I don't use Internet Explorer anymore. I used to have to use it for banking, but I can now use Firefox to connect to my bank. I switched to Apple Mail, so no more Outlook.The software that gives the most problems under Mac OS X is Microsoft Office X. OS X is rock solid, but Office X is not. I wish I had an alternative to offer my customers.
If my bank tries to force me to use Microsoft products, I switch banks. The only fear now is some government service forcing me to use Microsoft products. The Swedish government is really in love with Microsoft, so the risk is imminent. The funny thing is, it's usually terribly written homepages that forces you to use Explorer, and the only reason is that the web programmer used some silly Microsoft technology. And if they used something else, it would work on all platforms. I needed to upgrade a firewall from 3Com a couple of weeks ago, so I downloaded the new firmware and it was a self-extracting .exe file. So you needed a f…ing pc just to get to the firmware, when it was extracted I could upload it without a problem from a mac (or Linux, or what ever) So if they just compressed the file with zip, there routers and firewalls could be updated from any platform. Talk about stupid.
After Apple released WebKit and other browsers have replaced Microsoft's dominance, it's nice to see that my nightmare didn't happen. I guess we owe much to the iPhone and iPad when it comes to accessibility to web pages. Sometimes we make progress.
Use Little Snitch to monitor what developers of programs sends home. Then you can stop that specific traffic. More and more programs phone home with information to the software company. Sometimes it's harmless, like checking if a newer version is available, but sometimes they also send data like serial numbers and your registration information. So is there a way for you to control what programs can do? Yes, there is! There's an excellent program called Little Snitch that monitors all communication from applications on your Mac OS X machine and asks you if the information is allowed to be sent over the internet.
Great stuff! And you can tell the program to remember settings so you can allow regular communications to get through.
After getting my Emu 0404 USB 2.0 Audio Interface, I have started to rip my vinyl record collection. I want to retain as much as possible of the fantastic sound of vinyl, so I rip everything in 24bit 48khz. Why not use 96khz? Well, my preferred playback device, the Squeezebox only supports 24/48 unfortunately.

UC San Diego's Tsien Honored with First-Ever "Golden Goose Award"
Roger Tsien, PhD, professor of pharmacology, chemistry and biochemistry at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine who shared the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry for his role in helping develop and expand the use of green fluorescent proteins (GFP) was honored today with one of the first-ever "Golden Goose Awards."
Roger Tsien, PhD
Eight inaugural Golden Goose recipients were honored today at a Capitol Hill ceremony in Washington, D.C. The award was conceived by U.S. Representative Jim Cooper (D-Tenn) to celebrate scientists "whose research was funded by the federal government and benefited society in some important way, such as a new technology or an advance in health, but which seemed odd or obscure at the time it was conducted, or led to that benefit unexpectedly or serendipitously." It is supported by several notable scientific and educational organizations, among them the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Association of American Universities and the Progressive Policy Institute.
Tsien was joined by Martin Chalfie and Osamu Shimomura, who shared the 2008 chemistry Prize; Charles Townes, who received the 1964 Nobel Prize in physics for his research leading to the invention of laser technology; and Eugene White, Rodney White and Della Roy, whose study of tropical coral led to the development of new bone grafting materials.
Tsien, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, Chalfie, a molecular biologist at Columbia University and Shimomura, a professor emeritus at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Mass, gained international acclaim in 2008 for their studies explaining and expanding the use of GFPs – glowing proteins that researchers now broadly use to peer inside living cells or whole animals, watch molecules interact in real-time and ask questions once thought impossible.
"Our work is often described as building and training molecular spies," Tsien explained in 2008. "Molecules enter a cell or organism and report back to us what the conditions are, what's going on with the biochemistry, while the cell is still alive."
Tsien continues to develop and deepen the beneficial uses of GFPs. Last year, for example, he and colleague Quyen T. Nguyen, MD, assistant professor of head and neck surgery at the UC San Diego School of Medicine, showed in animal models how injectable fluorescent peptides could be used to highlight hard-to-see peripheral nerves, allowing surgeons to avoid them when removing or repairing other tissues.
About the Golden Goose Award
The purpose of the award is to highlight the human and economic benefits of federally funded but perhaps obscure or seemingly odd research that has resulted in major scientific advances and social benefit. Nominees must have received a federally funded research grant within the past 60 years from agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation or the Departments of Defense, Agriculture or Energy. Recipients are chosen by a partnership of the award's founding universities, think tanks, and businesses. Awards will be announced three to four times a year, with an annual ceremony in Washington, D.C. For more information, see www.goldengooseaward.org.

Waste Management In Action
Council in Focus
Sustainability in Business
SUEZ, ACOR, SV respond to Environment Minister meeting
May 2, 2018 April 30, 2018 by Waste Management Review
Stakeholders have largely welcomed the commitments made on Friday by state and territory ministers at April's Meeting of Environment Ministers – with some suggestions.
Federal Government, state and territory ministers and the President of the Australian Local Government Association met on Friday to set a sustainable path for Australia's recyclable waste, in the seventh Meeting of Environment Ministers. Taking action on recycled waste in the wake of China's restrictions on imports was the focus of the meeting. Australia is one of over 100 countries affected by China's new restrictions, affecting around 1.3 million tonnes of our recycled waste. Read the story on the outcomes of the meeting here.
Australia's National Waste Policy will be updated by the end of this year to include circular economy principles, along with a target endorsed of 100 per cent Australian packaging being recyclable, compostable or reusable by 2025.
They pledged for new product stewardship schemes for photovoltaic solar panels and batteries, while also agreeing to explore waste to energy further and advocate using recycled materials in government procurement.
While making a number of pledges, ministers agreed to have a teleconference in mid-June to discuss progress on recycling, and to meet in late 2018 to further progress delivery of the commitments on Friday.

SUEZ Australia & New Zealand Chief Executive Officer Mark Venhoek welcomed the government's focus on making 100 per cent of products recyclable and re-useable by 2025. He noted that swift action and investment needs to be made to ensure that this goal is met.
"As a waste industry, we are falling behind globally and we require fast action to stimulate the local market for recycled and recovered products," Mr Venhoek said.
"We support the government's 100 per cent recycled packaging goal which will create a sustainable demand for these products, but believe that it should be mandatory that packaged products can be re-used.
"Collaboration to achieving this is key and without investment from government and a commitment from packaging manufacturers and industry working together, we will not achieve this goal."
Mr Venhoek also welcomed the commitment from different levels of government to explore waste to energy projects and the support for the technology from the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and the Australian Renewable Energy Agency.
"Energy from waste technology is the missing link in the waste management hierarchy and waste infrastructure in Australia. After reduction, re-use and recycling, there is a crucial element: to recover the energetic value from waste," he said.
Sustainability Victoria Chief Executive Officer Stan Krpan said leadership is crucial to ensuring we have a sustainable recycling industry that Australians can be proud of.
Mr Krpan said yesterday's commitments align with the Victorian Government's suite of waste strategies and programs that move the state toward a circular economy.
"Supporting our local recycling industry to move towards a circular economy is reflected in the ministers' commitment to increasing our recycling capacity, advocating for the increased use of recycled material and creating targets for the use of recycled content in packaging," he said.
"We are also encouraged the strong support of product stewardship schemes and the increasing in the procurement of recycled goods government and industry buy," he said.
"Large procurements by government and companies can influence upstream design to reduce waste and packaging and trigger other innovations."
ACOR Chief Executive Officer Pete Shmigel said the right chords have been struck by ministers about investing in recycling's future, but we did not hear two very important sounds: implementation details and dollars in the till.
"The recycling industry welcomes commitments about ensuring recyclability of packaging products, buying recycled content products by governments, expanding domestic reprocessing capacity and developing a new national plan," he said.
"However, today's ministerial announcement lacks comprehensive targets for all measures, and consequences for underperformance, that make practice from theory."
Mr Shmigel said pro-recycling policy principles are welcome, but pro-recycling positive action and investment is now to be expected.
"As ACOR, we look forward to working directly with the Clean Energy Finance Corporation to identify and facilitate a strengthened investment presence in resource recovery – including in an expedited timeframe. There are good projects that merit backing among our members."
"As ACOR, we strongly question the timeframe given for products' recyclability as packaging is getting more complex each day and resulting in greater contamination and community cost each day that passes. By 2025, millions of tonnes of potential contamination would have passed through the system without the producers of packaging taking greater responsibility for their decisions.
Mr Shmigel said similar commitments were given in the 2009 National Waste Policy and, on current timeframes, it will be 16 years by the time they have been realised, describing it as "truly mediocre".
"Finally, further work is urgently needed at state levels to ensure that recyclate does not need to be disposed to landfill in the short-term."
Waste Management Association of Australia (WMAA) Chief Executive Officer Gayle Sloan said it is extremely pleasing that the National Waste Strategy will be updated by the end of this year and WMAA looks forward to participating in this.
"The endorsement by Ministers of a target of 100 percent of Australian packaging being recyclable or reusable by 2025 is heartening, and we look forward to working with government to develop meaningful targets from at least 2020 to ensure that this actually achieved," Ms Sloan said.
"Industry recalls targets set previously under the National Packaging Covenant that were never monitored or achieved, and once this failure was recognised it was just too late."
Ms Sloan said while there was no new funding for recycling in Friday's announcement, one thing WMAA will advocate to start immediately is government at all levels spending existing funds differently.
"Ministers must go much further than simply advocating for increased use of recycled materials in the goods that government and industry buy.
"With over 90 per cent of the community supporting recycling and the purchase of recycled products by government, government needs to hold itself to account and if it does not prioritise the use of recycled material, to report to the community why it does not, this should be the norm going forward, not the exception," she said.
WMAA in a statement said the federal government must show leadership in this space and act now to grow demand for recycled products that can develop markets and jobs in both metropolitan and regional areas. For example, it said Commonwealth Federal Assistance Grants to local government should be predicated on councils using more recycled glass sand and not virgin sand.
"Industry absolutely recognises that there is a place for waste to energy in Australia as an alternate to landfill, and we support this technology. However, it cannot replace recycling and remanufacturing."
Director of Boomerang Alliance Jeff Angel, which looks after 47 national, state and local groups, described the voluntary approach to recycled products as "weak."
"Mandatory rules, as in Europe, are the only assured way to establish a stable and growing market to justify the investment into new manufacturing," Mr Angel said.
"If we can have an enforceable renewable energy target, then we can have a similar system for recycled content. A lot of questions remain to be answered about the 100 per cent recyclable, compostable or reusable target including collection capacity – it's not just about labels."
Federal Government Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg on Friday said finding a solution to the 1.3 million tonnes of recyclable waste is an urgent and important issue which requires a coordinated approach from supply right through to demand.
"It is also an opportunity for Australia to develop its capabilities and capacity in recycling through effective cooperation and collaboration among the three levels of government," he said.

Considered one of quite possibly the most common electrical wiring issues is regarding how to wire a change. While making use of switches in the home is quite effortless, wiring a single may not be that quick for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is definitely quite simple to wire. You can find different kinds of switches, but for this example, let's say you will be putting in a single-pole toggle switch, a really typical change (and the most basic).
You will find a few hues of wires in a common single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and green. Splice the black wire in two and connect them on the terminal screws - a person on major as well as the other to the bottom screw of your swap. The white wire serves like a supply of uninterrupted ability which is normally linked to a light colored terminal screw (e.g., silver). Connect the inexperienced wire to your ground screw of your switch.
These actions would normally be adequate to produce a normal change function with out a challenge. Nevertheless, when you are not confident that you choose to can accomplish the endeavor correctly and properly you greater allow the professionals get it done alternatively. After all, there's a cause why this task is among the most typical electrical wiring queries questioned by many people.
For a few explanation, how you can wire a ceiling fan can also be among essentially the most common electrical wiring queries. To simplify this process, you can utilize an individual change for just a single ceiling fan. To wire the admirer, it truly is merely a issue of connecting the black wire of the ceiling fan towards the black wire with the swap. When there is a lightweight, the blue wire need to be linked to the black wire in the swap at the same time.
You will find reasons why these are generally probably the most commonly requested electrical wiring concerns. 1, a lot of imagine it's simple to carry out, and two, they are the widespread electrical responsibilities at your house. But you then shouldn't place your basic safety in danger in your objective to save money. The stakes could even be significantly bigger when you make an effort to spend less and do an electrical wiring occupation with out sufficient information or working experience.

Porterbrook wins with HydroFLEX
BusinessGreen's Transport Project of the Year award has gone to Porterbrook for the UK's first hydrogen train, HydroFLEX.
The HydroFLEX train ran on the mainline tracks for the first time only a few weeks ago following almost two years' development work and more than £1million of investment by both Porterbrook and the University of Birmingham.
Hydrogen-powered trains, unlike diesel trains, do not emit harmful gases, instead using hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity, water and heat. The ground-breaking technology behind the trains will also be available by 2023 to retrofit current in-service trains to hydrogen helping decarbonise the rail network and make rail journeys greener and more efficient.
Mary Grant, CEO of Porterbrook, said: "We are delighted to have won BusinessGreen's Transport Project of the Year for our pioneering hydrogen train, HydroFLEX. The work we have done with the University of Birmingham has been ground-breaking in terms of zero-emissions transport. At Porterbrook we take our responsibility for de-carbonising the railways very seriously and this award only bolsters our motivation to keep innovating."
HydroFLEX is able to run in bi-mode operations meaning it can use electric overhead supplies as well as run independently on hydrogen.
The next stages of HydroFLEX are already well underway, as the University of Birmingham develops a hydrogen and battery powered module that can be fitted underneath the train, which will allow for more space for passengers in the train's carriage.

Best Buy Lays Out Massive Smart Home Service Expansion Plan
Aiming to hit $43B in revenue by 2021, Best Buy will expand Smart Home Powered by Vivint home automation and security to 450 stores, add 1,500 dedicated smart home employees.
Jason Knott	• October 2, 2017
Best Buy (NYSE:BBY) is doubling down on the smart home market as part of its goal to hit $43 billion in revenue by fiscal year 2021.
The No. 2 company in the CE Pro 100 announced during its "Best Buy 2020: Building the New Blue" event it plans to enhance the smart home areas in all of its stores; roll out its Best Buy Smart Home Powered by Vivint home automation and security offering to 450 stores; and add 1,500 dedicated smart home employees.
Best Buy is also launching a new service called Total Tech Support under the Geek Squad brand. This will provide ongoing support for a customer's tech, no matter where or when they bought it. This offering is available nationwide in Canada and at 200 stores in 10 U.S. cities.
Meanwhile, Best Buy says it is evolving how it sells to focus not on just selling products but solving customers' underlying needs. The company will seek to accelerate its growth by continuing to improve the customer experience within and across channels, more effectively addressing customer needs in underpenetrated categories and building its in-home channel.
"We are excited by the opportunities we have in this next chapter to grow the company."
— Hubert Joly, Best Buy
To that end, the company recently expanded its In-Home Advisor program to all major U.S. markets. It now has 300 advisors who are specially trained to provide free in-home consultations to help customers find the right technology solutions.
Lastly, the company plans to pilot a service dubbed Assured Living that uses technology to help adult children remotely check in on the health and safety of their aging parents. Now available in two markets, this pilot aims to create peace of mind for the children while allowing the parents to live and thrive independently.
Best Buy Chairman and CEO Hubert Joly says, "Our Renew Blue transformation was about improving the customer experience and fixing what was broken," Joly said. "Building on what we have accomplished, we are excited by the opportunities we have in this next chapter to grow the company by helping customers pursue their passions and enrich their lives with the help of technology, which is a much bigger idea and one that is rich with opportunities."
Best Buy's goal is to hit enterprise revenue of $43 billion by fiscal year 2021 versus $39.4 billion in fiscal 2017. The company has delivered $1.4 billion in cost savings over the past five years. And, it plans to drive an incremental $600 million in annualized cost savings by the end of fiscal 2021.

Q: Add new array element to an existing JSON array using jq for sendgrid API This question is related to a previous one.
In my case, I would like to simply add individual elements. I have the following input.json.
{
  "content": [
  ],
  "from": {
    "email": "someemail@gmail.com",
    "name": "Some Name"
  },
  "reply_to": {
    "email": "someemail@gmail.com",
    "name": "Some Name"
    },
  "personalizations": [{
    "to": [{
        "email": "someemail@gmail.com"
      },
      {
        "email": "someotheremail@gmail.com"
      }]
    }]
}

I would like to append the subject and template_id so that the output.json looks like below.
{
  "content": [
  ],
  "from": {
    "email": "someemail@gmail.com",
    "name": "Some Name"
  },
  "reply_to": {
    "email": "someemail@gmail.com",
    "name": "Some Name"
    },
  "personalizations": [{
    "to": [{
        "email": "someemail@gmail.com"
      },
      {
        "email": "someotheremail@gmail.com"
      }],
    "subject": "Some subject"
    }],
    "template_id": "someID"
}

How would I do that with jq (including the syntax for input.json and output.json) in bash?

A: With simple assignment:
jq '.template_id="someID" | .personalizations[0].subject="Some subject"' input.json

The output:
{
  "content": [],
  "from": {
    "email": "someemail@gmail.com",
    "name": "Some Name"
  },
  "reply_to": {
    "email": "someemail@gmail.com",
    "name": "Some Name"
  },
  "personalizations": [
    {
      "to": [
        {
          "email": "someemail@gmail.com"
        },
        {
          "email": "someotheremail@gmail.com"
        }
      ],
      "subject": "Some subject"
    }
  ],
  "template_id": "someID"
}

Kentucky: United we stand, divided we fall.
I went through Kentucky on my May 2000 road trip to Cincinnati. It was the first time that I had driven into a state in which I had never been before. Every other time was either in an airplane or in a vehicle driven by someone else. I crossed into Kentucky on I-64 at the West Virginia state line. I saw this same sign there, with the "Where Education Pays" tag line. (I showed some of my co-workers my pictures from the road trip. Each one who saw this picture had some kind of comment about that slogan.) The West Virginia-Kentucky border by I-64 is a river, and the sign assembly is actually affixed to the bridge itself. The shoulder was too narrow to safely take a picture, so I continued on, visiting Frankfort and Lexington.
While in Cincinnati, I walked across the 135-year-old Roebling Suspension Bridge, over the Ohio River and into Covington. Just beyond the bridge the road divides, and in the median is this welcome sign. It was just after 9 pm when I took this picture. I took two shots, one with a long exposure and the other with the flash, and the long exposure worked the best. It's a good thing that this was in a fairly well-lit area, otherwise I would have had to come back the next day and I really didn't have the time to do that. I crossed the Ohio both on the Roebling Suspension Bridge and on I-71/75, and neither of those bridges had Ohio welcome signs. And fortunately as well I didn't have to drive up and down the Ohio and Indiana state lines looking for a Kentucky sign.
I didn't look around Covington too much. There are a few bars, restaurants, and hotels along the river, all with great views of the Roebling Suspension Bridge and the Cincinnati skyline. There is a floodwall down by the riverbank. A riverwalk goes east along the Ohio towards the Licking River with a few historical markers. I took a picture of the marker for the Roebling Suspension Bridge but the photo was illegible.
Just as I was setting up the tripod, about seven twentysomething girls came running up to me. One asked me for my phone number. But alas, they were on a bachelorette party scavenger hunt and needed five guys' phone numbers.
Haven't heard from them yet.
Frankfort is a fairly small city from what I can tell. I didn't actually see it though. The Kentucky State Capitol is a few miles west of downtown. There are two exits for Frankfort off of I-64; the eastern exit goes into town and the western exit is primarily for the Capitol.
After getting off I-64, I headed north on US-127 for about a mile or so before turning right onto US-60 east for another mile. There isn't much warning for the Capitol; stay in the left lane and there will be a cutout. If you stay on US-60 it passes by a scenic overlook of the Capitol grounds which I didn't make it to. Making a left off of US-60, I went down a hill on narrow Lafayette Drive through a light residential area. At the bottom of the hill the Capitol is right across the street.
I drove around the south front from west to east. On the east side of the capitol is a parking deck. When I arrived, there was a lot of commotion; a lot of construction vehicles around and workers milling about.
I walked around the south front to where the floral clock is. At the floral clock I saw a Kentucky State Trooper whose name I forgot to write down. People in this part of the country are very polite. He explained to me that Gov. Patton was having a huge party that night to celebrate the eve of the Kentucky Derby. A lot of bigshots would be there and he would soon have to start chasing non-invitees away. I mentioned this project to him, and he asked me if I had ever been to Olympia, Washington, which I hadn't. After telling him that I was from New Jersey, he asked me if The Sopranos is big up there, to which I replied that the major New Jersey paper regularly has columns in the TV section about the show. He asked if the show created New Jersey stereotypes, and he told me that people in Kentucky really "get hot" when they are called hillbillies, "even though we may speak with a southern accent."
I walked around the large capitol, which was built between 1905 and 1909 with a pricetag of $1,820,000. With a façade of limestone from Indiana and granite from Vermont, this is Kentucky's fourth capitol; the statehouse built in 1830 is still standing. It is surrounded by lush lawns of Kentucky bluegrass. In front of the Capitol's main entrance on the north front, there is a wide plaza of granite steps and walkways from the doors down the hill to the street. A small traffic circle separates the plaza from the divided tree-lined road leading down to KY-420. At the center of the the circle is a floral arrangement in the shape of a large star.
Kentucky has a good Capitol, though isolated. It seems separated from the rest of town and, coming from I-64, it seems almost hidden; unless you happened to catch the sign you would have driven right past Lafayette Drive. It is nestled into the hills and from the parking deck has a nice view of the Kentucky River.
The next day, Fusaichi Pegasus won the roses by a length and a half.
