Life of Reilly is the original work of Andrew Goletz. All praise and credit go to him. Not me.
This is where it gets even better. While the Spider-Titles are still split into the Ben Reilly books and the Peter Parker books, the mysterious Kaine plays a major role in all 4 titles, bringing a stronger sense of continuity between the books. Spider-Man is dying and his only hope is Doctor Octopus. Meanwhile, his wife Mary Jane has a stunning announcement that will change their lives forever. The Scarlet Spider/Ben Reilly is just starting to get used to having a life again. Picking up the pieces of his shattered existence, Ben begins to date, settle down and re-acclimate himself to the role of being a hero.
[ GLENN'S COMMENTS : Around the time of "Web of Life" and "Web of Death," Marvel was split into five groups by the "geniuses" who were running the company (into the ground) at that point. Tom DeFalco was suddenly out as Editor in Chief (a status quo change that many of us at the company would greatly regret in the months and years to come). There were now five EICs, each heading up their own line of books. There was the X-Men Group (EIC: Bob Harras), the Marvel Heroes Group (EIC: Mark Gruenwald), the Marvel Edge Group (EIC: Bobbie Chase), the Licensed Titles/Marvel Alterniverse Group (EIC: Carl Potts), and the Spider-Man Group, now overseen by Bob Budiansky. Longtime Spider-Man editor Danny Fingeroth was still on board as Spider-Man Group Editor, and the clone saga was already well underway. As a result of these departmental changes, Tom Brevoort and I were phased in to the Spider-Man Group. Tom was a full editor, and I had been his assistant for about a year or two by this point. We were to produce special Spider-Man projects in addition to monthly titles like NEW WARRIORS, which we had just inherited from another editor. ]
We'll take the Spider-Man titles first, which ran the "Web of Death" story in these titles: Amazing Spider-Man #397 and 398, chapters 1 and 3 of Web of Death, written by JM DeMatteis and illustrated by Mark Bagley and Larry Mahlstedt. Spectacular Spider-Man #220 and 221, chapters 2 and 4 of Web of Death, written by Tom DeFalco and illustrated by Sal Buscema and Bill Sienkiewicz.
"Web of Death" begins with Kaine observing Spider-Man out on patrol. It seems as if Kaine has as much of an interest in Spider-Man as he does the Scarlet Spider. Spidey is still feeling the effects of his poisoning by the Vulture during the "Back from the Edge" storyline. He's dying and he doesn't know what to do. If that weren't enough to deal with, he's starting to have memory flashes of himself in a containment chamber similar to what the clone was in as he was created.
Before he can compose himself, Doc Ock appears, and after noticing that something is wrong with Spider-Man (mentally and physically), leaves him for the time being. The issue ends with Ock and Spider-Man facing off again, only to have Spider-Man unmasked.
Spectacular Spider-Man #220 is a monumental issue. As Doctor Octopus struggles to save the life of Spider-Man (Ock wants Spider-Man to die at his hands, not through a poisioning), Kaine continues his observation of those whose lives revolve around Spider-Man. While watching Mary Jane he thinks, "I truly wish I could guarantee your survival, alas I cannot." Peter and Mary Jane are reunited, finally. Peter realizes that Ock's cure didn't work and before he can let his wife know, she informs him that they're going to have a baby.
[ GLENN'S COMMENTS : Mary Jane's pregnancy was Tom DeFalco's idea, and it came early in the planning stages for the clone saga. As Editor in Chief, Tom had approved the clone storyline in the first place, and shortly thereafter, at Spider-Man editor Danny Fingeroth's urging, he ended up as one of the regular Spider-Man writers. In this capacity, Tom proposed that a major, dramatic event that would help set up the saga's ultimate resolution would be Mary Jane becoming pregnant. It was a ballsy idea, and everyone was excited by it. And since Tom was still the ultimate authority at Marvel at that time, it was safe to say that the somewhat controversial idea would go through without a hitch. ]
" Web of Death" part 3 picks up with Peter still feeling ill, but going to dinner with Mary Jane, and they have a chance encounter with Detective Raven. The dinner is interrupted again when Peter spots Doc Ock watching them. They battle until the Doc reveals that he found a cure for the poison. Peter takes the serum and starts to feel a little better, but then collapses and heads for the light. "Web of Death" part 4 promises that "one shall die." Normally, we wouldn't even think it could be Peter, but with the events of the past few months, anything was possible. After meeting deceased friends and relatives, Peter fights back, the serum kicks in and he is alive! As he tries to understand why Ock saved him, the police arrive. Stunner called them as per Ock's instructions so that Peter wouldn't feel pressured to bring him in. He wants Spider-Man in peak condition the next time they battle.
Peter returns home to Mary Jane, where they share some quiet, tender moments together. Meanwhile, Kaine attacks Ock en route to prison and they battle it out. Kaine explains that he harbors no antagonism or malice towards Doc Ock, but for reasons of his own, he must die. With that, Kaine kills Doctor Octopus.
[ GLENN'S COMMENTS : I remember being in a meeting with Bob Budiansky, and it was explained to Tom and me that Doctor Octopus was going to be killed to show just how bad-ass Kaine was. This was going to be a really big deal, a dramatic high point, and Kaine was going to be a major player. (Make no mistake - Doc Ock's death was intended to be permanent. We clearly saw his dead body, remember?) Upon hearing about it, I was pretty skeptical. I'm not a big fan of killing off major villains, especially classic ones like Doctor Octopus, and I had serious doubts that a character of his stature and history could ever be suitably replaced by a new villain.
I clearly remember reading the issue where Doc Ock died. Tom DeFalco wrote the issue, but I got the feeling that he did it somewhat reluctantly. I don't think he particularly liked the idea of killing off Doc Ock, especially in the way that Ock was to be killed, and while the story was certainly very well-written, I just don't get the sense that Tom's heart was really in it. The fact that Tom later resurrected Doctor Octopus at the first opportunity would seem to back me up on this. ]
The "Web of Death" storyline was loaded with excitement and intrigue. Mary Jane announces that she's pregnant while Peter fights for his life and is aided by his greatest enemy. Kaine starts to show that he has more than a passing interest in the life of Peter Parker and Ben Reilly and he also appears to be clairvoyant, warning of impending tragedy. I enjoyed this storyline because every issue compelled you to pick up the next. Part 1 ends with Spider-Man unmasked, part 2 reveals that Mary Jane and Peter will be having a baby, Part 3 shows Peter apparently dying and Part 4 ends with one of Spider-Man's oldest foes being killed by the mysterious Kaine.
Now onto Ben Reilly's books and the "Web of Life" story, which ran in these titles: Web of Spider-Man #120 and 121, chapters 1 and 3 of Web of Life, written by Terry Kavanagh and illustrated by Steven Butler and Randy Emberlin. Spider-Man #54 and 55, chapters 2 and 4 of "Web of Life," written by Howard Mackie and illustrated by Tom Lyle and Scott Hanna.
"Web of Life" picks up with the Scarlet Spider settling into the role of hero, finishing up a battle with Tombstone. Elsewhere, the newly introduced Grim Hunter (son of the late Kraven) is planning his revenge on Spider-Man. Kaine continues to study Scarlet Spider and we learn a lot more about what drives him. He notes that the Spiders will never be far from each other. It's written that all Kaine knows is tragedy "...of what has been...and what is to come," and we're shown a vision of Mary Jane running from something before being killed. Scarlet Spider pays a visit to his (or rather, Peter's) former love, Betty Brant. He wants to set the record straight with the press, and although both of them try to stay objective and focused, Ben can't help notice sparks between them. Shortly after Scarlet Spider leaves Betty, the Grim Hunter arrives, trailing his scent.
Part 2 opens with the Scarlet Spider breaking into the Daily Bugle to look for reporter Ken Ellis, the one who saddled him with the Scarlet Spider name in the first place. The cheesy name has been a running joke in the Ben Reilly titles so far, as the name aggravates Ben to no end. Scarlet Spider doesn't find Ellis, but he does have an encounter with J. Jonah Jameson for the first time. Ben is starting to get very comfortable with his place here, and the reunions with Betty and Jonah have left him wanting more.
The crucial scene in this issue occurs in the middle of the book. Spider-Man is shown lying unconscious from the Vulture's poisoning. Ben is asleep in his Bed and Kaine just watches. Ben and Peter share a similar dream. A dream of a laboratory and a birth, with glimpses of Professor Miles Warren and the Jackal. Kaine doubles over in pain. When Ben wakes up from the dream, he immediately calls an old friend, Seward Trainer, who apparently is Ben's only confidant. Ben worries that degeneration is starting and Seward tells him that he's on his way to New York.
The Scarlet Spider pays another visit to Betty Brant and they share an embrace but are interrupted by the Grim Hunter before it can lead to anything else. The Grim Hunter realizes that Scarlet Spider is not the same man he holds responsible for the death of his father and leaves. Detective Raven also teams up with members of the NYPD, announcing that the person he's looking for that left scars on his victims was responsible for the death of his partner.
Todd Dezago guest writes "Web of Life" part 3 in Web of Spider-Man #121, illustrated by Phil Gosier. We're shown Kaine busting up a robbery, but treating the victim just as badly as the crooks. Detective Raven also finds a match for the fingerprints they found on the scene of the crime and decides, with the help of New York Detective Connor Trevane, to pay a visit to the person with the matching prints.
Meanwhile, the Scarlet Spider rushes to Peter Parker's home, hoping to arrive before the Grim Hunter can harm him. He runs straight into Kaine. The battle is over before it begins. Scarlet Spider manages to get a shot in, but Kaine overpowers him. It's only a last minute chop to the sides of Kaine's head that prevents Scarlet Spider from having his neck broken.
Part 4 opens with Scarlet Spider trying to regain his strength as Kaine and the Grim Hunter face off. During the battle, Kaine's thoughts reveal that the Grim Hunter cannot be allowed to interfere with what he's tried to accomplish. "He must die. As must they all." Scarlet Spider returns home after not being able to find Peter or Mary Jane and he runs into Seward Trainer, his old friend.
[ GLENN'S COMMENTS : Dr. Seward (pronounced SEA-ward) Trainer was named after Howard Mackie's father-in-law, and he was a pretty intriguing character. I liked Seward, I thought there was a lot of potential for characterization with him. Looking back, it's pretty ironic that I ended up writing the last word on him when the clone saga finally ended. ]
Seward wants Ben to come to his lab and finish the tests they started some time back, but Ben warns that Kaine is back and he needs to go after him before he kills again. The Scarlet Spider tracks Kaine and Grim Hunter to Central Park, but in the midst of the scuffle, they get separated again. Kaine and Grim Hunter face off, but the battle is short lived, as is the Grim Hunter. Kaine "marks" him and he dies.
[ GLENN'S COMMENTS : Kaine was slated to kill off some other Spider-Man villains, as well, to clear the decks a bit, make room for some new villains, and show Kaine really strutting his stuff. My understanding is that Howard Mackie offered up the Grim Hunter as Kaine's next victim. Howard had introduced the Grim Hunter only a short time earlier, with much accompanying hype and fireworks, but I presume that Howard realized fairly quickly that he really had no idea where to go with the character. So, he offered the Grim Hunter up as a sacrifice to the larger storyline, and the character was pretty much forgotten after that. ]
The mysteries keep growing. What is the degeneration that Ben and Seward seem so worried about? Why is Kaine so protective of Spider-Man but intent on killing Ben Reilly? And how accurate are Kaine's visions of Mary Jane's death? Who killed Detective Raven's partner? The obvious answer would be Kaine, but if that were true, why make it a mystery? It appears that there's more to the story than is being told. Most importantly, why are Peter and Ben having the same dreams of being in a laboratory? What does it all mean? The Spider-titles are kicking into high gear for sure, making each issue a must read for any fan.
[ GLENN'S COMMENTS : As I mentioned before, there was a lot of talk about Kaine at this point, his future potential as a franchise character. There were discussions about possibly spinning him off eventually into his own title, the way Venom had been. But Tom Brevoort and I privately agreed that a character as brutal and murderous as Kaine had been portrayed up to that point could not easily be "rehabilitated" and suddenly made into a protagonist. Despite the initial sales success of Venom's solo book, it left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths that Venom was now being portrayed as something of a "good guy." Another irony; Tom and I would later end up editing the Venom series! ]
You may wonder why "Web of Death" is the story for Spider-Man and "Web of Life" is the Scarlet Spider storyline, when each features the deaths of main characters. My opinion was that while the Spider-Books closed the story with the death of one of the legendary villains in the Spider-Man history, the Scarlet Spider books focused on Ben Reilly coming into his own as a hero and as a character. He reunited with Betty Brant and J. Jonah Jameson and started to feel the romance bug bite him. Readers were introduced to a good friend from Ben's past and the "Life" in the title refers to the character of Ben Reilly beginning starting to flesh out and become a separate person from Peter, not just a clone.
In the letters' column of the Spider-Books this month, fans start speculating on whether Ben Reilly could be the real Peter Parker. Marvel remains tight-lipped on the subject but offers a cryptic "anything can happen" answer. Time will tell.

The Repair Planet page
Before we start, could I just say that I agree with you about the latest literary masterpiece from So-and-so?
A little over-long, perhaps, and some of the characterisation is a little heavy-handed, but the wit is definitely coruscating and the prose sparkling. Oh, yes, spare, too, the prose is very spare. Economical too, yes, pared back, and - excuse me, I think I'm about to use the word "liminal" to describe the, ah, mise en scene. Missing an accent there - where are you when I need you, spellcheck?
But there's definitely an oeuvre going on here, squire; this is a work for our time, weaving themes of alienation and angst into a bildungsroman spanning the lives of characters we can recognise all too easily. What does it mean to be a woman? There's a moral ambiguity to…
Phew! I was beginning to feel I'd never be off camera again. Would you like some more of this fizzy stuff, or shall I see if I can find us a couple of cans of Korev? This time, when the woman goes by, I suggest you just grab the tray. Save me a couple of those round bready things with the cream cheese and that salty black stuff…
...here you go. Cheers. They'll never film us with these in our hands. Given that the prize is being sponsored by - hey, isn't that...? It is, isn't it? Funny how they're always smaller in real life.
Have I what? Read her book? Don't be ridiculous.
They're going to want us to sit down in a moment. Don't be silly. Come and sit with me. Nobody will mind. Yes, I know it's assigned seating, but if I just pick up this name card… There. You're sitting next to me. Let's sit down. That'll make it official.
There, you see. She's thought better of it. Too many cameras around to make a fuss.
Red, please.
I use an e-reader, actually. I still read books, but - actually, the thing that interests me is, I find that different formats suit different things. I like facts in hardback - or paperback, yes, and there's something special about a library book, whatever it's about.
But if I'm reading fiction these days, a lot of the time I pick up my e-reader and browse through the online store. I don't know if we still use the term "killer app", but what makes it for me is the free sample. You can read the beginning free, and then decide whether you want more.
Yes, a lot of it's- Yes, a good sample doesn't always mean a good book- Yes, I know, but-
What do I read?
What do you mean, what do I really read? Did you put in those italics?
Okay, what do I really read?
I read a lot of beginnings, obviously. I'm genre-agnostic - yeah, good term; no, I just made it up - and a lot of the time I trust the algorithm to make suggestions. Although it's an AI - you know, Artificial Stupidity? - so it's always just wanting me to read more of the same, rather than making intuitive leaps.
But the best writing these days; no, I mean the writing that makes me want to hit "buy" when I get to the end of the beginning. A lot of that's genre fiction these days. I don't know why, but every author you've never heard of - they're either writing fantasy, vampires, you know, or there's a murder in Chapter One and the quirky small community is thrown into uproar.
Maybe it's just easier writing fantasy? Less need for subtle nuances of character if they're all riding around on dragons and hacking at each other with swords? I don't know, but I don't mind a bit of witchcraft if the writing holds my attention. If it's sincere, I suppose, is part of it.
I came across a catastrophe novel the other day, in which the apocalypse is triggered by a freak weather event. Man walks into a bar on page one, and the TV above the counter - counter? - is talking about the snow. Except that it's snowing everywhere. Another one: suddenly, nobody could sleep.
No, it isn't weather all the time. The obliging thing about genre novelists these days, especially the ones who only do ebooks, is that if you find one you do like, they've generally written a whole series. Dozens of books sometimes, featuring the same characters. It's not like, this is the Big Book; it's more, this is the world I've created.
Artificial Stupidity? Yes, I know, Intelligence. Don't get me started.
But why do we need to build machines to think for us, when we can think for ourselves?
I had my laptop fixed the other day - after a conference call, the word-processing … is it app or program now? … wouldn't start. None of the files would open. So I took it to a friend who used to do that kind of thing, and after a certain amount of muttering and writing-down of error codes, we got to the "Repair Page", where we downloaded a fresh copy of the word-processing - thing. Whatever.
Yes, exactly, papered over the old one. Didn't fix it at all.
And I thought my usual thought. I could have done that. Tapped that many keys. Got to that page eventually, like all those monkeys with typewriters that were eventually going to write Shakespeare, remember? I used to be in awe of people who could fix computers, but that was a century ago. Everything now's just tapping keys. I couldn't tune a piano, or even learn to play one with any feeling, but I can tap keys. That's the kind of problem I can solve.
If only we could solve global warming by tapping keys; we'd be great at it. If only the solutions to real life could be found down a predetermined labyrinth of solutions to problems that somebody, somewhere, Seattle perhaps, Cupertino, has pre-defined as the unexpected.
Is that machines thinking for us, or people who think like machines thinking for us?
Or people who want to believe machine-thinking is how it's done?
Anyway, the moment was: I could do this! It would take me longer, but there's no inspiration or creativity required. Just finding the path through the labyrinth.
Like I said, don't get me started.
But perhaps there's a game. Global warming: the game. We could solve that.
Now, there's an idea. Keep us busy, make us feel better about-
What? No, that's not possible! I'm only here for the-
Did you know about this?
Oh, tell me there's an acceptance-speech app on this phone.
On a day like this, what better than a picture of the ground underneath the bench on which I was sitting to eat my sandwich? The sunrise has been done, the cloudless sky, the birds; the horizon is the preserve of painters in Cornwall - so | looked down. And thought about fingerprints.
There's a family story about a great-uncle who turned down the opportunity to buy the grand house in which he was living, at a nominal price, because the rent was so cheap. He didn't want the burdens of ownership, and way back then, renting was seen as the sensible thing to do.
Then - well, my grandparents remembered the depression of the thirties, and my father (born in 1921) travelled extensively in Europe and then Asia in his late teens and his early twenties. My mother told her war stories too - code-breaking and truck-driving, among other activities.
The generations that came of age during the mid- to late-twentieth century lived through challenging times. By the time I came along, they'd been through rationing, national service and the Korean War. Far away from anywhere, the Bikini Atoll nuclear tests were just ending, and in the USA, "agribusiness" was poisoning everybody (Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, 1962).
The "leading-edge" baby boomers were about to start being drafted into the Vietnam War, the Berlin Wall was about to go up, and we were well into the early stages of the Cold War.
Back then, the reason to stockpile baked beans was that we were all half-expecting to be annihilated in an exchange of nuclear missiles (the idea was, you sat it out in the bunker you'd dug in the garden, then ate baked beans until the radiation dispersed, ha ha).
The Fulda Gap was the area of West Germany that would take the brunt of the Soviet land invasion, and the big question was, would the Americans launch nuclear missiles once Warsaw Pact tanks had rolled up NATO and taken hostage all those US troops stationed on our side of the Iron Curtain?
Oh, and the other question was: would "Mutually Assured Destruction" (MAD; the perfect acronym) be enough of a deterrent to stop one side or the other launching a first strike? Clearly, it was. We're here. The survivors, anyway. Asbestos in our cribs. DDT on our vegetables.
I remember watching news reports showing the spread of fallout from the Chernobyl disaster, but that was later. I remember Beatles songs in the playground. Went into the HMV store in Truro the other day, and they've gone back to racks of vinyl - although it was all very much cleaner and brighter than such places were back in the day. I wonder if there's still scope for listening before buying.
Although, come to think of it, I recognised most of the album covers, so that would be pointless. Sometimes, I think I'm living through a remake of my own youth.
Yes, and there was a piece in - I forget where - the other day, about generational unfairness. Old people own all the wealth and young people can't even buy houses. A binary, simple thing. So simple. Underpinning it was the assumption that aspiration adds up to one thing - home ownership - and maybe it does.
But nothing's stopped. Change goes on happening. I think of my great-uncle sometimes. The certainties of his life were as certain to him as the certainties of our lives are certain to us. Sorry, clumsy sentence. But he knew that renting was preferable to buying. He was, in our terms, wrong. But he knew.
What do we know?
And when am I going to be compensated for all those years I had to spend without the internet?

A: Make that method static public static void print(int array[], int i) or you can create object of the class and call print method. I would encourage the use of proper coding conventions. Class names should start from capital letter

converted.print(array,i);

You cannot reference a non-static method from a static context.

*

*A static method is bound to class itself. It is accessed using class name.

*A non-static method is bound to an instance of the class.

*As non-static is not bound to a class hence it cannot be called directly from static context.

A: The method print must be static if you want to call it from a static context.
public static void print(int array[], int i)

A: You are calling non-static method in your main method, create an object of your class in your main method and call with it.

Tom Siebel's C3 IoT looks to expand, slay giants
Tom Siebel's C3 IoT is aiming to make its mark on Internet of things deployments at scale beyond the energy sector. Here's the platform and plan.
By Larry Dignan for Between the Lines | April 17, 2016 -- 22:00 GMT (15:00 PDT) | Topic: Big Data Analytics
Tom Siebel: Engineer, billionaire, giant slayer? Tom Siebel's C3 IoT is taking aim at GE, IBM and other giants in the internet of things market. Larry Dignan forsees an interesting ride ahead.
Tom Siebel's C3 IoT has 20 customers, an Internet of things platform that is operating at scale and a penchant for taking on giants such as General Electric's Predix.
Siebel, CEO of C3 IoT, has experience landing big accounts and taking on giants. At Siebel Systems, Siebel popularized CRM and then sold his company to Oracle. Before starting that effort, Siebel was among Oracle's best sales leaders.
Those stints, along with four decades of enterprise application experience, give Siebel an interesting view on the Internet of things possibilities. C3 IoT is a relatively new name for Siebel's company, which previously focused on energy-related customers.
With the energy sector serving as a proof point industry, C3 IoT is now entering markets such as fraud detection, healthcare, banking and predictive maintenance. "Utilities were early adopters and a good place to start," said Siebel, who recently stopped by the CBS Interactive New York office for a chat.
The case for C3 IoT goes like this:
It has scale deployments managing data and sensors. "Cloudera, MapR, Predix and Pivotal don't have the large scale deployments we have," said Siebel.
The company has a platform-as-a-service architecture that doesn't require enterprises to replace what they have. C3IoT charges 1x hosting costs for PaaS and 2x hosting for software as a service applications.
A model-driven architecture run by 1 million lines of Java code and in most cases on top of Amazon Web Services.
A patent-pending approach on its data integration process. The patent information took up as many pages as a phone book for a small town before the ads went away.
On that final point, Siebel had a quote that's worth pondering. "You can't build software with 2,000 people. AWS had 10. The original Oracle and Siebel had about 20," said Siebel, who was referencing GE's Predix platform.
The argument for C3 IoT is that enterprises looking to scale IoT sensors and data management have to either cobble together open source technologies or bet on a company like GE that doesn't have the sensors in the field. "It's like the difference between an IT professor and one who actually builds IT. Or the car driver vs. someone who builds the car," said Siebel.
Is the timing right? Siebel said the timing for scale IoT deployments is perfect. C3 IoT was formed in 2009 because it became clear that cloud, big data, machine learning and mobile and sensor networks would converge to solve business problems. "We were betting that these vectors would come together," said Siebel, who made a similar bet in 1993 with Siebel Systems.
Indeed, C3 IoT has one deployment that's operating at 200PB of data and has 200,000 virtual machines to process the information. The real hurdle is integration and processing data at scale for machine learning. Other customers include Enel, which has 13 unique source systems providing data and 1.7 trillion rows of data aggregated and 7 trillion rows of historical data; Exelon, which has a 20 TB federated cloud image of data and 650 analytic signals across the platform; and Engie, which uses C3 IoT for smart thermostat analytics.
SEE: The Power of IoT and Big Data (ZDNet/TechRepublic special report) | Inside GE's Digital Solutions unit: Talking IoT development with Ganesh Bell
C3 IoT is now going after market share. Like Siebel did at his CRM company and Oracle, the plan is to knock on big enterprise doors. "We're ringing one doorbell at a time. At Oracle and Siebel we tended to ring doorbells at big doors. That's what we've done," he said. It's also worth noting that AWS is one of C3 IoT's biggest sales partners.
Trial pricing ranges from $60,000 to $400,000 depending on time required for data integration, support, strategy and product management. There are also additional services as well as ongoing hosting fees.
The entire time, I'm talking to Siebel I'm thinking 'here's a billionaire that could be relaxing.' C3 IoT has raised $150 million and most of the cash came from Siebel. Why bother? IoT is a challenging systems problem.
"Nothing about this is going to change my life financially. That being said, building relational database management systems was an important technology that changed the world. At Siebel I'm confident we did something important. I think this is more important and can change the face of computing. This is what is motivating me. I want to make a big contribution."

Q: Groups not showing up in the users.aspx page When I goto my sharepoint 2013 site collection -> Site settings -> Site Permissions
the browser opens with siteurl/_layouts/15/user.aspx
I only see two groups in that page.
When I goto siteurl/_layouts/15/groups.aspx  , I see all the groups which are present. I can also see all the site permission groups in designer. Anyidea on how to fixed the users.aspx to show all groups?

A: Don't have a SP to check if it is so, but I think that

*

*siteurl/_layouts/15/user.aspx lists the user permission groups for the site (i.e. those permissions are valid on the current site), whereas

*siteurl/_layouts/15/groups.aspx lists the user permission groups of the site collection (i.e. these are the permission groups that have been created inside the site collection, but it doesn't mean the groups have any permissions added)

This is by design and intended to be so.

A: Site permissions shows which groups have been granted access.
groups.aspx shows what groups have been created and are available to use.
When you create a group you don't have to use it for permissions.  I have created groups that are only used in workflow. Or are used only for one library.

A: You should be aware of siteurl/_layouts/15/groups.aspx  denote to People and group of your site so you can see all groups which are present
At siteurl/_layouts/15/user.aspx denote to Site Permissions Settings so you may be you stopped inheriting permission , and use custom permission .

A: Groups don't show in user.aspx page, which means those groups don't have permissions in this site. You need to grant permissions to those groups manually. - coutesy Dean Wng

LRRK2 Physiology in Parkinson's Disease
Shake It Up Australia and The Michael J. Fox Foundation (MJFF) today announced the first of up to $3 million worth of Australian research grants to help find a cure for Parkinson's disease.
Objective/Rationale:
Mutations in the LRRK2 gene are a common cause of genetic Parkinson's disease. LRRK2 is highly expressed in circulating and tissue immune cells. We have recently identified that LRRK2 is a component of the pathways involved in innate immunity. We aim to identify whether LRRK2 has a role in innate immunity using blood immune cells from donors with and without Parkinson's disease as well as from pre-clinical models with genetically-modified LRRK2.
We aim to identify whether LRRK2 has a role in innate immune signaling, and whether its activity or phosphorylation is changed in Parkinson's disease.
Signaling experiments will be performed using immune cells harvested from LRRK2 knockout models and controls (and LRRK1 knockouts in case of compensation). We will look for differences in the secretion of immune signaling molecules, gene expression and signal transduction. In separate experiments, we will modify immune pathways over 24 hours using drugs that activate different immune receptors and/or inhibit LRRK2 activity, and assess the same parameters.
Changes in Parkinson's disease will be identified in immune cells isolated from donated venous blood samples from 30 patients and 30 matched controls recruited through specialized clinics. These cells will be cultured under sterile conditions and the amount of phosphorylated and total LRRK2, LRRK2 activity and gene expression determined.
Relevance to Diagnosis/Treatment of Parkinson's Disease:
These studies will provide basic information on whether LRRK2 plays a role in innate immunity, and whether LRRK2 is changed in peripheral immune cells in patients with Parkinson's disease. Our signaling experiments will identify potentially modifiable immune pathways for future therapeutic targeting. If we observe a change in LRRK2 only in immune cells from patients with Parkinson's disease, we will assess this finding further as a potential biomarker for the disease.
Anticipated Outcome:
We know that LRRK2 mutations cause Parkinson's disease, but how is still poorly understood. LRRK2 is highly expressed in immune cells, and we will determine whether LRRK2 plays a role in innate immunity by harvesting the immune cells from knockout and control pre-clinical models and comparing their normal functioning. It is currently unknown whether LRRK2 activity or phosphorylation is altered in Parkinson's disease, and we will determine whether LRRK2 in peripheral immune cells differs in patients with Parkinson's disease from controls.


Prejudice is a prejudgment based on inadequate knowledge. Prejudice often relies on stereotypes. For instance, a person meeting a female child for the first time might assume she likes princesses or the color pink. Prejudice can be conscious or unconscious. A person doesn't have to realize they're being prejudiced to prejudge others.
Prejudice is a complex problem that has led to wars, enslavement, abuse, murder, and untold suffering. Working with a therapist can help people overcome their prejudices, understand the effects of prejudice on people they love, and develop strategies for dealing with the mental health effects of living in a world filled with prejudice.

US Governor: Humans Face Extinction Over Climate
February 21, 2008By Andy RowellBlog Post
The Governor of Maryland, Martin O'Malley is the latest US Governor to talk tough on climate.
Although putting limits on pollution could cost businesses in the short term, in the long term, O'Malley argues that the cost of inaction is much greater — the flooding of waterfront businesses and homes, and eventually, the extinction of humans.
"We need to move into a much more sustainable future or else we cease to exist as a species," O'Malley, a Democrat, said at a press conference at the State House yesterday. "People can talk about the increased cost of things. But what sort of increased costs will come from a four foot rise in sea level for businesses located at Sparrows Point (the steel mill) or in Annapolis or in downtown Baltimore?"
"These are things that we must do, that we have to do, that we have a moral imperative to do in order to turn around the impending damage that is coming to all of us on this planet because of unchecked climate change," O'Malley said.
"This bill recognizes that not only that global warming is a battle we all share. But for too long our aim in this fight has fallen too short. We are faced with the sad fact that our coastlines are eroding, that the planet is warming, and we have to do a better job of reducing the damage that human consumption and patterns in energy use are doing to our planet."
However many business owners and Republicans aren't buying it. Senator Richard Colburn, a Republican from the Eastern Shore, was skeptical that people have anything to do with climate change. He quoted from a radio talk show host who suggested that there is global warming on other planets — obviously not caused by humans.
That's the most ludicrous argument from the skeptics I have heard so far.

North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities assists people with I/DD, their families and supporters to attend conferences, participate in policy studies, conduct research and receive technical assistance and evaluation.
It provides funding for speakers and presenters that will enhance the Council's work in systems change, advocacy and community capacity to build inclusive communities for persons with intellectual and other developmental disabilities and families.
The Jean Wolff-Rossi Fund for Participant Involvement (Rossi Fund) is designed to empower people with I/DD and their family members with opportunities, experiences, resources and information, to actively participate in decisions that often impact them personally. Individuals with I/DD and their family members can receive reimbursement for specific expenses for seminars and conferences designed to improve their knowledge, networking and skill levels for advocacy.
The NCCDD makes all decisions on the disbursement of funds. Applicants receiving Rossi funds will be asked to complete a Rossi Fund Participant survey and are expected to share their knowledge with the local community and with the NCCDD members.
The Council's Conference Funding policy serves as guidance on how to advance NCCDD's goals by sponsoring effective presentations and speakers at conferences. In determining whether to fund a presenter(s) for a conference, the Council gives strong weight to the degree of input from the Council in planning the conference, including development of recommendations of presenters.

Malawi offers a diverse array of attractions which are easily accessible by car, from its wildlife, varying landscapes, lakes and rivers to its rich culture. Visitors can drive along Lake Malawi, which extends for more than 300 miles along Malawi's eastern border. Dotted along its shores are villages and small towns where visitors can interact with Malawi's greatest asset: the Malawian people. It's the friendliness of the people from which Malawi's other name, 'the warm heart of Africa', is derived.
Driving Tips for Malawi
Driving in Malawi can be hazardous if not done with care. It is suggested that travellers avoid driving at night as there are a range of potential hazards, such as potholes, animals, pedestrian traffic and even automobiles without headlights. Fuel shortages are common and can cause lengthy queues at petrol pumps.
Driving licences: UK drivers are permitted to drive here with a valid UK driver's licence for up to 90 days. Persons possessing an International Driving Licence are able to drive here for up to a year.
Which side does Malawi drive on: the left.
Speed limits:
Urban areas: 35mph (60kph)
Outside urban areas: 60mph (100kph)
Alcohol limits: the same as in the UK—0.08 per cent. Malawian police are known for administering breathalyser tests and offenders risk having their vehicles confiscated on the spot.
Driving age: 25 years to hire a car. Sometimes two years of driving experience is required.
Seatbelts: required to be worn by the driver by law but it is advised that all passengers wear a seatbelt at all times and that children are properly restrained in the back seat.
Mobile phones and GPS: it is illegal to talk on a mobile phone while driving. GPS may be helpful, especially when travelling along the most frequently used roads.
Cost of fuel in Malawi: slightly cheaper than in the UK.
Car hire and fuel payment: credit cards are not widely accepted in Malawi. Using cash is the preferred method of payment for petrol, but major car hire depots accept credit cards.
Insurance: third-party insurance is generally included in the price of car hire but collision damage waiver should be considered as an add-on.
Traffic and parking: most hotels offer secure parking. When parking, be sure not to leave any valuables in your car as car break-ins are common, especially in cities such as Lilongwe and Blantyre. Traffic congestion is not usually an issue, but livestock on the roads can cause delays.
Though there is rail service connecting major cities in Malawi, trains are seldom used by tourists as they tend to be slow and crowded. There are trains from Mozambique to Blantyre, but large stretches of track may be out of commission and will therefore need to be covered by truck.
Taxis are available in any of the cities in Malawi. Some are licensed while others are not. Visitors have to negotiate the cost of the ride and drivers are notorious for charging tourists two to three times the normal rate. Visitors can enquire at their hotel as to what the cost to their destination should be, which can be a helpful guideline in the negotiating process.
It is possible to take a bus from southern Malawi (Blantyre) to northern Malawi (Mzuzu or Karonga) for around £8. There are also buses from Mozambique and Tanzania into Malawi. It is advised to take a 'luxury' bus as some of the lower class buses can be in poor condition.
A relaxing way to explore Lake Malawi is to take a ferry that travels the length of the lake. Fares between Monkey Bay and Chilumba range from about £6 for economy class to around £56 for a cabin. This particular route takes approximately two days to cover and represents the longest stretch. There are stops along the way at Likoma Island and Nkhata Bay.
The main airport in Malawi, Kamuzu International Airport, is situated 15 miles (25kms) from Lilongwe, with bus and taxi connections available. Most flights originating from the UK fly into Johannesburg, South Africa, from where there are connections to Lilongwe. UK nationals are not required to purchase a visa as long as their stay is for less than 30 days.
Exploring Malawi
There are many diverse places to visit in Malawi. Southern Malawi is characterised by its highlands, such as the Zomba Plateau and Mulanje Massif; the former is accessible by car. Mount Mulanje is the highest peak south of Kilimanjaro.
The east of Malawi is dominated by one of its main attractions, Lake Malawi, which runs along most of the country's eastern border and is the third largest lake in Africa. From Monkey Bay, visitors can access Cape Maclear, with its sandy beaches and clear water which is ideal for swimming.
In the north of Malawi is the rocky Nkhata Bay with its quaint lodges. Further north is Nyika National Park, the largest national park in Malawi. Still further north, at the 'top' of Malawi, is the charming town of Karonga. This town near Lake Malawi is an excellent place to mingle with the Malawi people who are renowned for their friendliness.
Central Malawi is the home of the capital city of Lilongwe. Here, you will find the Lilonge Wildlife Centre and all the amenities of a modern city. North of Lilongwe is Ntchisi Forest Reserve with its breathtaking rainforest.
Malawi enjoys a sub-tropical climate of warm, wet weather from November until April, when 95 per cent of the annual rainfall takes place. Cool, dry winters usually last from May until August. During this time, temperatures typically range from 17°C to 27°C, with temperature lows of between 4°C and 10°C possible. There is a hot, dry season in September and October with average temperatures of between 25°C and 37°C.

Insource, law firm, or outsourced legal specialist: Which approach is best for routine legal work?
March 4, 2020 Legal Outsourcing
When it comes to handling non-core tasks like legal processes for high-volume NDAs, vendor contracts, engagement letters, and other standard documents, many companies struggle to find an efficient, high-quality, and cost-effective solution. For most, it usually comes down to compromising and deciding between insourcing the work or outsourcing it to a law firm. However, there is a third option that offers a more viable solution: an outsourced legal specialist.
Outsourcing recurring legal work to an expert legal service provider that offers both specialist lawyers and advanced technology produces the most cost-effective and highest-quality results.
While insourcing and law firms may seem appealing at first glance, a closer inspection of staffing, technology, and cost considerations reveals that outsourcing to a trusted expert is the best approach to routine legal work.
Outsourced legal specialists provide the right people
Routine legal work still needs to be done right.
When you insource the work, it typically receives only a portion of the time and attention of employees who specialize in other matters, may not benefit from a formal legal education, and who were hired to handle core business tasks. Having them spend time on routine legal work means less time spent generating more substantial business value.
Outsourcing to a law firm similarly fails to result in the right staffing. Typically, the work is handled by less-experienced junior lawyers and is neither the main focus of the firm nor in their highest area of expertise.
What you need is a dedicated team of top-tier lawyers who are specialists in the specific types of contracts and tasks being outsourced. Only expert legal outsourcing providers offer the right staffing to get your recurring legal work done accurately and efficiently.
Outsourced legal specialists have the right technology
Technology is revolutionizing the way we handle routine legal document processes, and you need a solution that incorporates the most recent technological advances.
Insourcing creates significant challenges, because most companies have little to no technology specifically designed to aid the negotiation and management of routine legal documents. Moreover, they employ decentralized and inconsistent processes that are not enabled by technology, meaning they're inefficient, are prone to human error, and could significantly increase legal and reputational risk.
Law firms are usually even more lacking on the technology front. Most firms do not specialize in technology and offer no solutions designed to provide efficient document management or contract data extraction and reporting.
The best solutions are offered by legal outsourcing providers. Some leading providers may offer a software platform that organizes documents and workflow, leverages the power of AI and machine learning to make processes more efficient, and captures legal and business information as data points to generate insightful reporting that makes future negotiations more effective and helps with managing obligations.
Outsourced legal specialists can be engaged at the right cost
The costs of recurring legal work can quickly add up. You need a solution that can handle that work in the most cost-effective manner possible without sacrificing quality.
At first glance, insourcing may appear to cut costs when you view it from a pure dollars-and-cents perspective. That view, however, ignores a number of hidden costs that come with insourcing, including opportunity costs, oversight costs, task-switching costs, and turnover costs, among others.
When you outsource to a law firm, you're charged the same steep billable hours that the firm would charge for the more complex, nuanced work you need to solve your most challenging legal issues.
One of the main drivers behind finding the right solution for routine legal processes is reducing cost. By outsourcing to the right legal services provider, you could see an average cost savings of 70 percent or more. Some providers even offer transparent, flat-fee pricing structures that result in dramatically lower legal costs compared to insourcing or outsourcing to a law firm.
The answer to routine legal work
When you compare insourcing, law firms, and outsourcing to specialists when it comes to staffing, technology capabilities, and fee structures, outsourcing to a specialist is the clear answer for handling high-volume or recurring legal work. Outsourcing to a legal specialist that offers a complete solution combining experts and technology is even better.
