The chart attached paints an interesting (and not entirely surprising) picture of the relationship between interest rates and building approvals. Whilst many conversations around the property sector involve the words bubble and overheated it is easy to understand why some fund managers think businesses exposed to housing will prosper this reporting season. Chris Stott, CIO at Wilson Asset Management, says, We think this housing cycle will be longer than previous given the scope for interest rates to remain at record lows for the next 2-3 years. Further interest rate cuts cannot be discounted. Andrew Smith from Perennial has a similar view and is investing in direct and indirect exposures to the housing market. Smith says companies like Brickworks, AV Jennings, Fantastic Furniture and Aveo all provide reasonably priced exposure to this thematic.

Village Attorney Addresses Northbrook Court Sale Rumors
The status of Northbrook Court's redevelopment has been put into question by recent media reports, which assert that the shopping center will be put up for sale. In response to an article in Crain's Chicago Business, the Village Attorney publicly affirmed that Northbrook has no obligation to provide TIF funding or sales tax rebates unless the previously-proposed construction is substantially completed.
According to Crain's, unnamed sources maintain that Northbrook Court's owners led by Brookfield Property Partners LLC have stopped making mortgage payments. The article also states that the lender, Barings, is interviewing brokers to handle a sale of the property. Brookfield's investment group, which also owns Water Tower Place and Oakbrook Center, reportedly owe around $117M on Northbrook Court.
In 2019, Brookfield received approval for an ambitious redevelopment plan of Northbrook Court, including construction of a 315-unit apartment building, a great lawn with adjoining restaurants, and a supermarket. The Village agreed to support the project with incentives totaling $27M, including tax increment funding (TIF) and a sales tax rebate on sales in excess of those collected in 2017. However, the only part of the project to be completed thus far is the demolition of the former Macy's store, which closed in 2019. Brookfield opted to "pause" further construction in the wake of the pandemic's devastating impact on retail business.
At the April 13 Board meeting, Village Attorney Steve Elrod explained that the Village is thoroughly protected in its agreements regarding Northbrook Court's redevelopment. "We imposed a precondition in the agreement that all of the public improvements must be fully constructed, all of the residential and retail buildings must be substantially complete, and all of the mall renovations must be substantially complete before the Village's obligation even kicks in," stated Elrod. He added that the Village has received no notifications of any kind from Brookfield, but affirmed that the redevelopment agreement covers transfers or changes in ownership if necessary.
Village President Sandy Frum agreed with Elrod's analysis. "None of us liked to see that article in the paper," she acknowledged, "but I don't think there was anything in it for us to be concerned about."
Meanwhile, Northbrook Court remains open and active according to General Manager Brian Lee. "We continue to welcome guests for shopping, dining, and entertainment," said Lee. "Some new businesses have been added this year, and foot traffic has increased with the reopening of the movie theaters. Our focus is on supporting our tenants and providing guests with a safe, positive experience."

NRA Mess Continues to Expand
Here are the most recent National Rifle Association (NRA) developments:
In July, the Attorney General for the District of Columbia issued subpoenas to both the NRA and its related charitable foundation focusing on whether the organizations violated DC's nonprofit laws. The foundation is chartered in the District of Columbia. More specifically, the AG's office said: ""We are seeking documents from these two nonprofits detailing, among other things, their financial records, payments to vendors, and payments to officers and directors." Coverage: ABC News; Washington Post.
Earlier this month, the New York Attorney General issued subpoenas to 90 current and former NRA board members. The NRA is chartered in New York. While the AG's office did not provide any details, the subpoenas come in the wake of reports regarding financial transactions with numerous board members or entities owned by them. Coverage: CNN; N.Y. Times.
Also earlier this month, the Washington Post reported that the NRA had considered purchasing a $6 million mansion for its chief executive officer, Wayne LaPierre. The NRA ultimately did not proceed with the purchase, but the details regarding the decisions related to the purchase are disputed by NRA officials and its former outside ad agency.

In 2006, Eskom unveiled plans for a new multi-billion rand mega-project: the construction of the Medupi coal power station in the small town of Lephalale in Limpopo Province. This once quiettown near the Botswana border suddenly found itself inundated with massive new developmentsand an influx of people from around South Africa and the world. This enormous expansion caught the small semi-urban municipality unaware, and brought with it both crisis and opportunity. The municipality's incapacity to deal with some of the effects of the sudden boom revealed unresolved historical legacies of a segregated town that was managed and remained strongly dependent ontwo major corporations: Exxaro and Eskom. At the same time, the boom catalyzed bigger dreams for the future: the creation of the first post-apartheid city.
complex entanglements of government, party politics, private property owners, developers and the grander forces of capital. This research forms part of a three year project which explores emerging dynamics of local government in areas of growing mineral extraction, particularly in Limpopo Province. In June 2015, the Public Affairs Research Institute (PARI) began work in Lephalale. We were granted permission to interview an extensive range of officials working within the municipality. In addition, we conducted interviews with former officials, mayors, Exxaro employees and a variety of townsfolk who have lived in Lephalale over many decades. This was supplemented by substantial archival material contained in the municipality's records keeping division.
Chapter I begins with a history of the Lephalale Local Municipality: the establishment of the first council of Ellisras in 1986 against Iscor and Eskom's predominance in the area; the transition to democracy and the amalgamation of the municipality; and the beginning of Medupi and the boom that followed. Chapter II and III examine some of the legacies of this history and how they have affected land use, spatial planning and the provision of bulk services. Chapter IV discusses the municipality's difficulties of overcoming this legacy, of asserting its role as the determining driver in the unfolding developments, and realizing its ambition of building a city.

World T20 preview: Strong bowling unit can see Ireland through
Updated / Monday, 7 Mar 2016 17:44
Ireland will face Oman, Bangladesh and the Netherlands in the group stages
By Ed Leahy
RTÉ Sport journalist
Ireland embark on their fifth consecutive Twenty20 World Cup on Wednesday as they take on Oman in their opening encounter at the HPCA Stadium in the Indian city of Dharamsala.
Nine years on from the 2007 World Cup in the West Indies, Ireland have established themselves as serious opposition on the world cricket stage and have made an impression at most of the major tournaments that they have played in, from the famous St Patrick's Day victory over Pakistan at Sabina Park, to Kevin O'Brien's world record-breaking knock to beat England at the 2011 World Cup, and on to the West Indies win last year in New Zealand.
Those famous victories have all come in the longer format, the 50-over one day internationals (ODIs), and while Ireland's history at the T20 is not as impressive, they are getting close to causing a similar upset and will be looking for such a breakthrough at this year's event.
But first of all, Ireland need to get through their group.
Two four-team groups battle out the for the two remaining places in the Super 10 phase, where the top eight ICC sides are waiting for the tournament proper to get going.
After the Oman opener, Ireland face Bangladesh on Friday, followed by their final group game against Netherlands on Sunday, and John Bracewell's side will possibly have to win all three games to progress.
New Zealander Bracewell is less than a year into the job and it is fair to say that the new coach has very big boots to fill following the successful eight-year tenure of his predecessor, West Indies' Phil Simmons.
The legacy of former coach Adrian Birrell also looms large over this Ireland side as several of the current squad remain from the time that the genial South African took the cricket world by storm back at the 2007 World Cup with a team of part-time cricketers consisting of farmers, postmen and school teachers.
This will be Bracewell's first chance to take charge of an Ireland side at a major tournament and it might be argued that his squad are still going through a transition period.
Bracewell's first real test came last summer with the qualification process for this week's event.
The qualifiers were held in Ireland and while the home side topped their group to gain automatic qualification, they suffered shock defeats to Papua New Guinea and Hong Kong before losing to next Sunday's opponents, Netherlands, in the semi-finals of that mini-tournament.
Ireland have maintained their dominance over the associate nations in the longer form of the game and that Intercontinental Cup schedule has actually helped Bracewell fine-tune his side for this week's tournament.
As usual, Cricket Ireland has provided the team with the best possible preparations for this tournament, with an extended stay in Australia for the IC clash with Papua New Guinea in late January-early February, which included a three-match T20 series before more competitive action in Abu Dhabi, where Ireland shared a two-match T20 series with hosts UAE.
The Irish team have also benefited from being based in Dharamsala for their two-warm-up games at the same venue where they will play this week's group games.
And perhaps the appointment of Chaminda Vaas will prove most telling, as the vastly experienced Sri Lankan was brought in to help the Ireland bowling unit prepare for sub-continent conditions.
Left-armer Vaas took a total of 755 wickets in his 111 Tests and 322 ODIs, and since retiring he has worked as a bowling consultant for both New Zealand and Sri Lanka. He has also coached in the IPL and it is that T20 experience that Ireland will surely be trying to tap.
"His ability to get wickets in all forms of the game especially on the sub-continent was extraordinary. This experience will be invaluable to our bowling group," said Bracewell after the Vaas appointment was announced.
Vaas has already spent three weeks working with the team, one week in Abu Dhabi and two weeks at the training camp ahead of the tournament, and his real input will be devising bowling plans to maximise local conditions.
Ireland's warm-up games have seen Bracewell's side enjoy a comprehensive win over Hong Kong before losing to Zimbabwe and the Dharamsala tracks have, thus far, suited the team batting second, which will be something valuable that the Irish will have learned from their base camp at the host venue.
Bowler Tim Murtagh also felt that the ball moved about a bit more under lights and with two of Ireland's fixtures taking place in the evening, it will be another factor that the Irish attack will look to capitalise on.
The middle square will be used for the tournament and the wickets are looking a little worn, which might favour spinners, and will surely be a key factor in Bracewell's team selection and captain William Porterfield's strategy.
Ireland teams in recent tournaments have suffered late injury withdrawals but this time the squad are all fully fit and Murtagh's decision to reverse his retirement decision from this form of the game has also given the selectors better bowling options.
Craig Young was the only player with an injury concern as the bowler was struggling with a slight ankle injury last week, but the Bready man played in Saturday's warm-up game and came through without any adverse effects.
Traditionally, Ireland have relied on their strong batting throughout the team from top to tail, however, this time around, there is a real confidence that the bowling unit will make a big impression, which has certainly been enhanced by the return of Boyd Rankin.
Ireland's top wicket takers at this tournament, Alex Cusack (11) and Kyle McCallan (8), are no longer involved and Rankin's experience will certainly strengthen the attack.
Rankin, Kevin O'Brien and George Dockrell all have seven tournament wickets and will again be instrumental if Ireland are going to feature beyond the initial group stages.
The returning Rankin certainly has the potential to really unsettle the top order with the new ball, which he is likely to take after the openers get through their first spell.
Bowlers only get four overs to make their mark in these short-format games and while that generally rules out fatigue issues, it puts pressure on the individual to hit their marks straight away with the risk of getting smashed around the ground by a settled batsman a very real possibility.
Murtagh will surely open the attack for Ireland, alongside either Young or Max Sorensen, but Rankin will be anxious to get involved early on as his pace and height can really prove decisive in landing some early success before the opening batsmen get their eye in.
The favourable conditions for spin might see George Dockrell and Andy McBrine getting the nod ahead of Stuart Thompson, while Young may edge out Sorensen after enjoying decent figures in his three overs bowled in the warm-up defeat to Zimbabwe.
Expect Paul Stirling to contribute with his tempting off-breaks, while Kevin O'Brien's medium-fast deliveries generally contribute a wicket or two in the process.
The Ireland squad has certainly been weakened since the 2015 ODI World Cup with the departure of all-rounder John Mooney, while Ed Joyce's absence leaves a real hole at the top of the order.
But as mentioned, Ireland have always boasted a strong batting line-up and Andrew Balbirne has made an immediate stake to fill that gap left by Joyce.
In fact, Joyce essentially passed on the baton to his fellow Dubliner after announcing his retirement saying, "with the emergence of exciting young batsman Andy Balbirnie, I know the T20 team should be in good hands going forward".
Balbirnie's confident and assured half-century against the ferocious South Africa attack at the World Cup cemented his place in future Ireland selections and a brilliant 97 followed soon after in the win over Zimbabwe at the same tournament.
But if Ireland are going to advance to the Super 10 phase, it will be up to the experienced men at the top and middle order that will need to perform.
Captain Porterfield will open with Stirling and both will need to hit their stride immediately in this limited-overs game. Middlesex man Stirling can be a real key to Ireland's chances as he is one of the most naturally gifted batsmen and can build a big score quickly, as long as he can get himself into double figures.
The O'Brien brothers will again be key and while Kevin takes a lot of the spotlight for his monster hits and high scores, Niall's ability to score off almost every delivery is a real asset to this Ireland team.
Gary Wilson is another who can contribute and build a quick innings and while the tail might not always be called upon in this format, there are certainly runs in the Ireland lower order, which might prove valuable if needed.
Ireland have yet to really make their mark in this fledgling tournament, which is not even ten years old – the first World T20 took place in 2007 – but they have been knocking on the door at every one of their four appearances and will be hopeful that the fifth instalment will see their game-plan come together.
Ireland beat Bangladesh in their first outing in 2009 to make the Super 8 but failed to progress a year later as they could not complete their game against England and went out on net run rate (NRR) – England went on to win the tournament
Lightning struck twice two years later in Sri Lanka as Ireland again crashed out on net run rate, this time to the West Indies, who also went on to win the tournament.
Another two years on, the event took place in Bangladesh and Ireland again made their mark with a win over full member Zimbabwe but then a comprehensive defeat to the Dutch in the final group game cost the Irish a place in the now-expanded Super 10 stage – again losing out on net run rate.
At this year's tournament, all eyes will be on the Bangladesh game on Friday who must be regarded as favourites to go through with local conditions surely suiting the number-seven ranked ODI side in the world.
But Ireland must put all their focus into Wednesday's opener with Oman, who beat Scotland in a warm-up game on Friday, and a morale-boosting victory can build some very important momentum ahead of the possible group decider on Friday.
But let's not forget the Netherlands, who like Ireland, have a habit of keeping their best for the big stage and, as a result, this group could see all teams taking points off each other.
Coupled with the fact that it has barely stopped raining in India over the past few days, again it could be net run rate that decides whether Ireland move on or ship out of the tournament next Sunday.

Q: A combinatorial problem about number partition Choose eight different numbers from one to twenty, prove that there must exist six different numbers such that $a+b+c=d+e+f$.
Since $\binom{20}{8}$ is only $125970$, I can do it with brute force, but that's not a proof.

A: A brute force search may not be particularly satisfying as a proof, but it yields the counter-example $$[ 1, 2, 4, 5, 13, 16, 17, 20 ].$$
This can be verified using the GAP code:
counterexample:=[ 1, 2, 4, 5, 13, 16, 17, 20 ];
triples:=Combinations(counterexample,3);
pairs_of_disjoint_triples:=Filtered(Combinations(triples,2),p->Intersection(p[1],p[2])=[]);
0 in List(pairs_of_disjoint_triples,p->Sum(p[1])-Sum(p[2]));

which returns false.

Q: Background color start down the y-axis? I want the background color of a div to start 40px from the top of the div. Can I do this with background-color? Or do I need to use a background image (say, a 1x1px gif in the color I want, repeating it and starting the repeat 40px down)?

A: You can do this with Background-color.
The problem is that you would have to have 2 divs one in another.
the first one - the "big picture"
the second one - the div with the background color setting to it.
and give the second div that margin you wanted.
that is if i got you right :)
Good luck,
Eliran.

ShellBag Analysis
ShellBag Analysis: What are "shellbags"?
To get an understanding of what "shellbags" are, I'd suggest that you start by reading Chad Tilbury's excellent SANS Forensic blog post on the topic. I'm not going to try to steal Chad's thunder...he does a great job of explaining what these artifacts are, so there's really no sense in rehashing everything.
Discussion of this topic goes back well before Chad's post, with this DFRWS 2009 paper. Before that, John McCash talked about ShellBag Registry Forensics on the SANS Forensics blog. Even Microsoft mentions the keys in question in KB 813711.
Without going into a lot of detail, a user's shell window preferences are maintained in the Registry, and the hive and keys being used to record these preferences will depend upon the version of the Windows operating system. Microsoft wants the user to have a great experience while using the operating system and applications, right? If a user opens up a window on the Desktop and repositions and resizes that window, how annoying would it be to shut the system down, and have to come back the next day and have to do it all over again? Because this information is recorded in the Registry, it is available to analysts who can parse and interpret the data. As such, "ShellBags" is sort of a colloquial term used to refer to a specific area of Registry analysis.
Tools such as Registry Decoder, TZWorks sbag, and RegRipper are capable of decoding and presenting the information available in the ShellBags.
How can ShellBags help an investigation?
I think that one of the biggest issues with ShellBags analysis is that, much like other lines of analysis that involve the Windows Registry, they're poorly understood, and as such, underutilized. Artifacts like the ShellBags can be very beneficial to an examiner, depending upon the type of examination they're conducting. Much like the analysis of other Windows artifacts, ShellBags can demonstrate a user's access to resources, often well after that resource is no longer available. ShellBag analysis can demonstrate access to folders, files, external storage devices, and network resources. Under the appropriate conditions, the user's access to these resources will be recorded and persist well after the accessed resource has been deleted, or is no longer accessible via the system.
If an organization has an acceptable use policy, ShellBags data may demonstrate violations of that policy, by illustrating access to file paths with questionable names, such as what may be available via a thumb drive or DVD. Or, it may be a violation of acceptable use policies to access another employee's computer without their consent, such as:
Desktop\My Network Places\user-PC\\\user-PC\Users
...or to access other systems, such as:
Desktop\My Network Places\192.168.23.6\\\192.168.23.6\c$
Further, because of how .zip files are handled by default on Windows systems, ShellBag analysis can illustrate that a user not only had a zipped archive on their system, but that they opened it and viewed subfolders within the archive.
This is what it looks like when I accessed Zip file subfolders on my system:
Desktop\Users\AppData\Local\Temp\RR.zip\DVD\RegRipper\DVD
Access to devices will also be recorded in these Registry keys, including access to specific resources on those devices.
For example, from the ShellBags data available on my own system I was able to see where I'd accessed an Android system:
Desktop\My Computer\F:\Android\data
...as well as a digital camera...
Desktop\My Computer\Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi\CF\DCIM\334CANON
...and an iPod.
Desktop\My Computer\Harlan s iPod\Internal Storage\DCIM
Another aspect of ShellBags analysis that can be valuable to an examination is by the analyst developing an understanding the actual data structures, referred to as "shell item ID lists", used within the ShellBag. It turns out that these data structures are not only used in other values within the Registry, but they're also used in other artifacts, such as Windows shortcut/LNK files, as well as within Jump List files. Understanding and being able to recognize and parse these structures lets an analyst get the most out of the available data.
Locating Possible Data Exfil/Infil Paths via ShellBags
As information regarding access to removable storage devices and network resources can be recorded in the ShellBags, this data may be used to demonstrate infiltration/infection or data exfiltration paths.
For example, one means of getting data off of a system is via FTP. Many Windows users aren't aware that Windows has a command line FTP client, although some are; in my experience, it's more often intruders who are conversant in the use of the command line client. One way that analysts look for the use of the FTP client (i.e., ftp.exe) is via Prefetch files, as well as via the MUICache Registry key.
However, another way to access FTP on a Windows system is via the Windows Explorer shell itself. I've worked with a couple of organizations that used FTP for large file transfers and had us use this process rather than use the command line client. A couple of sites provide simple instructions regarding how to use FTP via Windows Explorer:
MS FTP FAQ
HostGator: Using FTP via Windows Explorer
Here's what a URI entry looks like when parsed (obfuscated, of course):
Desktop\Explorer\ftp://www.site.com
One of the data types recorded within the ShellBags keys is a "URI", and this data structure includes an embedded time stamp, as well as the protocol (ie, ftp, http, etc.) used in the communications. The embedded time stamp appears (via timeline analysis) to correlate with when the attempt was made to connect to the FTP site. If the connection is successful, you will likely find a corresponding entry for the site in the NTUSER.DAT hive, in the path:
HKCU/Software/Microsoft/FTP/Accounts/www.site.com
Much like access via the keyboard, remote access to the system that provides shell-based control, such as via RDP, will often facilitate the use of other graphical tools, including the use of the Windows Explorer shell for off-system communications. ShellBag analysis may lead to some very interesting findings, not only with respect to what a user may have done, but also other resources an intruder may have accessed.
Like other Windows artifacts, ShellBags persist well after the accessed resources are no longer available. Knowing how to parse and interpret this Registry data
Parsing ShellBags data can provide you with indications of access to external resources, potentially providing indications of one avenue of off-system communications. If the concern is data infiltration ("how did that get here?"), you may find indications of access to an external resource, followed by indications of access to Zip file subfolders. ShellBags can be used to demonstrate access to resources where no other indications are available (because they weren't recorded some where else, or because they were intentionally deleted), or they can be used in conjunction with other resources to build a stronger case. Incorporation of ShellBag data into timelines for analysis can also provide some very valuable insight that might not otherwise be available to the analyst.

Hedge fund firms have always embraced change and responded to investor demand. Responsible investment is no exception to this rule. Arguably, one of the biggest trends reshaping the global asset management industry today is having firms look to do well, while also doing good.
Every sector of the global asset management industry has a role to play in this transformation, and no role may be more important than that of the hedge fund industry. While the hedge fund industry is still relatively new to responsible investment, hedge funds, with their technical expertise and knack for innovation, can play a major role in overcoming some of the barriers faced by the responsible investment movement.
In a recent joint research study conducted by the Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA) and the Cayman Alternative Investment Summit (CAIS), we found that, globally, hedge funds have at least $59 billion in assets under management specifically allocated towards responsible investments. This figure is likely to grow. Half of all hedge fund firms surveyed reported an increase in investor interest in responsible investment over the last 12 months, and nearly a third reported that they either already have a responsible investment expert on staff, or are planning on hiring one over the coming year.

Cybercrime and hacking by hostile states demands a 'Digital Geneva Convention' – Stewart McDonald MP and Alyn Smith MP
The first iPhone was released less than 15 years ago, boasting 2G internet and the ability to download a four-minute music video in just a few short hours.
By Stewart McDonald and Alyn Smith
Tuesday, 27th July 2021, 4:55 am
France's President Emmanuel Macron changed his phone and number after he was reportedly targeted with Pegasus spyware (Picture: Ludovic Marin/AFP via Getty Images)
At that time, the internet was little more than a collection of blogs and chatrooms and the word 'ransomware' was unheard of by all but a small handful of people.
In the few short years since then, human society has undergone one of the most profound and rapid transformations in its history.
Sign up to our Opinion newsletter
Our social existence – from working, shopping and socialising to dating and learning – has increasingly moved online, with each activity leaving a Hansel and Gretel-style trail of data in its wake.
News headlines today feature stories about 'hack and leak' operations or ransomware attacks, where hackers paralyse a computer system and hold its information at ransom.
Despite the ubiquity of this digital technology – the sheer volume of the data that we unthinkingly, and often unknowingly, share online and the speed at which it has become ingrained in every aspect of our daily lives, from arranging for food deliveries to organising patient records – international rules and norms governing cyberspace remain too patchy, to the point of rendering them effectively non-existent.
While the anarchy of the early internet was a large part of its appeal, today it represents a significant threat to our security and the global economy.
Indeed, just as we have moved our activities online, so too have hostile states and other malicious actors. Journalists and human rights activists can now be tracked without the need for someone sitting outside their home for hours on end and critical national infrastructure can be brought to its knees without the need for bombs or missiles.
SEPA: 4,000 files stolen in cyber attack on Scotland's environmental regulator p...
This month alone has seen the news dominated by cybercrime – attacks on Microsoft orchestrated by the Chinese state; the hacking and surveillance of the mobile phones of journalists, human rights activists and world leaders; and a series of ransomware attacks targeting businesses and institutions around the world, from Swedish supermarkets to New Zealand high schools.
Scotland is not immune from these attacks. Just last year, on Christmas Eve, the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (Sepa) was targeted in a ransomware operation by a group operating from St Petersburg which is believed to be linked to the Russian state.
Despite refusing to pay the ransom, Sepa spent at least £790,000 in its initial response to the attack and, because the agency refused to pay the ransom, it saw 4,000 of its digital files leaked online in reprisal.
As suspected in the attack on Sepa, hackers may be discreetly encouraged – with or without financial support – or they may simply enjoy a state of benign neglect, where their country's government pretends not to be aware of the hackers' activities. Cyberspace has become a key battleground of modern conflict and one where states can much more easily deny their involvement.
While cybercrime is estimated to cost the UK £27 billion per year, the NSO scandal around the targeting of human rights defenders and activists by governments around the world using the Israeli surveillance firm's spyware shows that the risks to our human rights are just as stark, with private citizens and businesses just as vulnerable to attack as public figures and public institutions.
As we move more of our lives online, and as technology grows increasingly more sophisticated, these attacks are only going to increase. However, despite states conceding that international law also applies to cyberspace, there are no agreed international norms governing behaviour in cyberspace; many targets of cyber attacks are also on private property which has meant that responsibility for digital protection has fallen to private companies.
When these hackers are backed by the resources of a state like China, it beggars belief that we continue to outsource our national security to private companies. We would not expect fishermen to defend our seas against aircraft carriers. Why then do we rely on private companies like Microsoft to defend citizens and their data in cyberspace?
In 2017, Microsoft released a statement highlighting this problem, calling for a Digital Geneva Convention which would commit governments to protecting civilians from state-backed attacks in times of peace.
Governments of the world, they argued, needed to do more to come together and affirm international cybersecurity norms that have emerged in recent years while adopting and implementing new and binding rules. The series of attacks which dominated the headlines this month show that this proposal can no longer be ignored.
A Digital Geneva Convention would update the Geneva Convention to protect civilians from cyber attacks in peacetime. States would be obliged to proactively defend cyberspace from malicious actors as well as assisting individuals and businesses to recover from attacks.
Such an international agreement, and the subsequent creation of an international organisation dedicated to tackling cyber threats, would provide a forum for states to hold each other – and other actors – to account for their actions in cyberspace.
A Digital Geneva Convention, backed by tech giants like Facebook and Microsoft, is needed now more than ever.
The information revolution has brought the world closer together and transformed our societies but if we wish to continue enjoying its benefits, then action must be taken. If the price of safety is eternal vigilance, governments can no longer continue to close their eyes to the anarchy of the digital world before them.

Drop down not available on petition on story "Democrats inexplicably cut deal....."
I'm attempting to fill out that petition. Drop down arrows for Mr./Mrs. etc. (and the other two) aren't working. I tried this in two different browsers, everything updated, everything cleared, all the usual steps taken. Just wanted you to know.
We do know about the problem, and we have put the ticket on a fast track.
In the meantime, however, there are a couple of workarounds.
If there is a petition you want to sign, but you find yourself stymied by an uncooperative dropdown (which does not offer any options and therefore blocks your submission of the letter) please try one or the other of these methods to complete the letter.
Workaround #1: When you reach the page where the dropdown seems to be stuck/non-functional, slide your cursor up a little so that it points at the gray space above the troublesome text window. The dropdown should appear then.
We apologize for the awkwardness and frustration this problem has caused.

Psychological Correlates of Public Support for Reconciliation: The Israeli-Jordanian Case

This study examines psychological correlates of Jewish-Israeli support for post-conflict political reconciliation with Jordan. An analysis of data from a public opinion survey conducted with a representative sample of Israeli-Jews (n=1000) indicated that appraisal of outgroup collective threat, as well as hatred and (lack of) sympathy towards Jordanians, predicted Jewish-Israeli decreased support for peaceful reconciliation with Jordan. Our findings point to the crucial role of threat perceptions in hindering post-conflict reconciliation and to the importance of sympathy towards the other side in increasing support for such reconciliation.

The amusements of Merry Old England
04 May 2015 on sport, Merry Old England, fox
Fox Hunt – The Montreal Gazette May 5, 1828
To those who have enjoyed the chase, in the Mother Country, either by participating in its pleasures, or who have been calm spectators, we need hardly allude to the joyous moments, and the delightful exhilaration, which the sportsman enjoys in this truly manly amusement. The winding of the mellow horn, the animating soul-stirring music, and the ardent intense longing of the hounds; the pleasure which the horses seem to feel in the sport, the cries of the huntsman, all tend to cause an inward glow, and hope and joy to beam on the countenances of those who are devoted to this amusement.
On Saturday morning, pursuant to notice, a number of gentlemen assembled at the Bridge erected at the intersection of Lower Lachine road by the Canal, to enjoy the pleasures of a fox hunt, a sport hitherto unknown in this Province. Many fine horses were exhibited, and many of the riders seemed to pant with eagerness for the unbagging of poor Reynard. The fox was allowed to go off in the fields between the Canal and the River, and began to run towards the Nun's Farm after he and began with "good law." The hounds, trusty and true, were put upon "the drag," and very soon "gave tongue," proceeding in full cry. The riders kept on the Lachine road, and turned down the lane, which leads to the Nun's house opposite Nun's Island.
Here Reynard turned, and was proceeding on this former track, when the hound caused him to take a course across Lachine road. The fox passed within 50 yards of the sportsmen on the Lachine road and made along the Canal towards the woods. The hounds continued in full cry; and the equestrians exerted themselves very creditably for a first attempt, in their leaps over the fences and ditches, that impeded their progress.
The fox soon stole away to the woods, and after some time, was found to have holed himself in a hollow stump on the farm of Mr. Bourgeois, in rear of Woodlands, the property of George Gregory, Esq. Here Reynard was taken, bagged, and is in custody to afford sport of Wednesay next, to those who wish to follow the amusements of merry Old England.
The hounds on this occasion were not numerous, and though young, exceeded the expectations of their masters. No accident and few unsportmanlike misfortunes occurred during the whole chase, and on the whole, the sport was maintained in a manner that did credit to those engaged in it. The country people thought the inhabitants of Montreal were mad, or that something had occurred to disturb their mental faculties, when a poor unoffending fox should be thus pursued over fence and ditch, by men, horses, and dogs, and for no other purpose than to keep him in a bag to be chased some other day. "Comme ces Anglois sont droles" was a common expression. We however are pleased to view this introduction of one of the fine sports of England into this country, and hope it may be continued.
It is requested, as a matter or courtesy to the tenants of the grounds, as well as giving fair play to the dogs, that the sportsmen who may attend on Wednesday next, do not enter the fields on the east side of the road, where the fox is turned out. Other dogs than those engaged in the chase, should not be brought upon the ground.

Q: Disable/enable context menu for jQuery Dynatree not working I am using the jQuery dynatree along with the context menu found here.  The issue I'm having is that I can't get the enable/disable of the context menu or individual items in the menu to work.  The plugin says I should be able to do this:
$("#contextMenu").enableContextMenu();

but that doesn't work for me.  Here's the menu:

Resend

The menu shows and works fine if I don't put any enable/disable, but there are cases where the menu item is not available so I need to be able to control its state.  If I put in the enable/disable, the manu doesn't show at all.
Can anyone share how they got this to work?
UPDATE: I can only get the menu to show if I remove the DIV above.  Then it will show, but enable/disable using "myMenu" does nothing...

A: I couldn't disable the menu itself, so I had to handle it after the item is selected:
switch( action )
{
    case "resubmit":
        //-- show verify dialog
      var selectedNode = $("#tree").dynatree("getActiveNode");
      if(selectedNode == null)
           break;
      var parentTitle = selectedNode.parent.data.title;
      if( parentTitle == "Error" || parentTitle == "To Lab" || parentTitle == "From Lab" )
            $('#dialog-confirm').dialog('open');
             break;
    default:
             alert("Invalid action '" + action + "' to node " + node);
}

I just check that the proper type node is selected to be able to take the action (look at parent, which is the containing folder).

A: Came across the same issue, you can actually disable the context menu trigger like:
$(".dynatree-title").contextMenu(false)

And re-enable it with True. dynatree-title being the element the trigger is bound to.
Hope this helps anyone else who stumbles across this.

Start Amazon here and I get a nickel!
I'll get credit for sending you to Amazon, if you start here.
First and foremost, any autistic kid will love a book about their interests. If you know what that interest is, you can pop over to Amazon and browse away! If you don't know, ask their parents. If they don't know, or you don't want to or can't ask, the following books are generally well-received for the under 4-or-so set, especially nonverbal or minimally verbal kids. And, as always, these books are good for ANY kid, autistic or no.
Bright Baby First 100 Words, Large Format – I've bought this at least twice, because ours wore out. Clementine, age 3, (with severe autism) likes to put toys or objects on the pictures that match. Sometimes her idea of match is really unique – like a toy platypus on a goose! All the photos are the same size, which helps. We talk about these as we read.
Sandra Boynton board books – These are so fun. They tick many boxes for the little autist: they are a set, they are Different but the Same, they are clear, simple drawings, they have alphabets and numbers, they have daily activities, and they are so cute and funny. 10/10. Just love these.
My First Colors (Tabbed Board Books) – Another picture book, this one arranged by color instead of subject or topic. The tabs are interesting to talk about, and go to each color's page from the front. This one is more visually complicated, with many photos on a white background.
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom – Autistic kids seem to love letters. At least, mine do. Hyperlexia runs in the family. This vibrantly colored silly story was re-enacted by Bede hundreds of times.
Nursery Rhyme Comics – Nursery rhymes in comic format, with fifty different artists! This one has been worn out at our house.

Downstairs we had two shops, one gifts shop and one for spare car parts. My husband worked full time as a mechanic, fixing cars. But this is many years ago. The problems started already before the Wall was built. When the Israeli army blocked the street we l(...)
Marwan, living in the Rachel's Tomb area
Marwan owns a garden shop in the former main street of Bethlehem that is now one of the first buildings after the checkpoint.
When they started to build the Wall some years ago the people from Jerusalem, our main costumers, stopped coming. The business collapsed, maybe 99%. The Wall affects many people. There are many families living in Bethlehem and Jerusalem who cannot visit each oth(...)
Melvina, on the history of the Rachel's Tomb area
Interview with Melvina
…. As if the Wall is on My Heart
Melvina lives in a house along the former main street in Bethlehem (Hebron Road). The Wall is a few meters from the backside of her house.
They did not plan to build the Wall as it is now. They were planning to build the Wall in the middle of the street, so that it would be separated in two parts: one side connected (...)
Dima, a young architect,, about the Rachel's Tomb area
Conversations along the Wall near Rachel's Tomb
The interviewee Dima is a young architect who has her office, once her house, three meters from the Wall at Rachel's Tomb in Bethlehem.
I was studying in France when the Israeli government started building the Wall. They started after the 2nd intifada began. My parents lived here, in the office where we are (...)
Antoinette Kinesivich about the Rachel's Tomb area
Antoinette Kinesevich lives quite isolated. She has to drive around the Wall at Rachel's Tomb that is about 20 meter from her house in order to reach what once was the main street, the Hebron Road.
If you want to know about the wall you have to know what happened previously. Before 1948 we had good relations: Jews and Palestinian Muslims and Christians. We all lived together, sharing l(...)

My Utopian Jaffa
By J. Ryder
"Djaah-Faah" - a long, slowly expired, two-syllable word that caresses my palate like a sip of dry wine. Ja-ffa was my "Lo-lee-ta," and as Nabokov put it, "the light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul." When, during the ephemeral years of Oslo's golden expectations, I lived in the highest topographical point of the Ajami quarter, I didn't realise, as I do now, ho(...)

The people here keep asking me one thing...are you sad to go? Sure I am. I'll miss the day to day interaction. The chatting at tea time in the kitchen, the jacket potatoe lunches and the mandatory 10 mins of social talk when you nip up to someone's desk with a question. The folks here are amazing (I believe I said that yesterday) and I'll miss them but I know they have made a contribution to my life and I theirs. Somewhat cliche again but true.
Having been in and out of the country I don't have a desk here so there's no box of acquired 'stuff' to lug home with me. There's no name plate to add to my collection and I don't even think I'll take a single extra piece of paper with me (trust me, when you are in Sierra Leone you learn quickly to print less).
I know this won't be the last I hear of these people. I've made some truly great friends here and have promised to visit again. I've also invited everyone to Canada...I think I have convinced Nana...just need to get rid of some of that snow!
Time to finish 'transitioning' then head off to the pub for a couple of Guinni. It's been a slice!
I'll be here for another week so expect one or two more updates and few more photos.
It's been a few days since the chaos of last Friday and all of the panic-ed preparation for the decision on whether or not the full ChildData system would go live in all 67 countries so I thought I would take a moment to reflect on the decision.
that we would not add any new offices (we are live in 9 countries now) until January 7th and have an additional wave January 28th (anyone from STSI reading this and cringing?).
So, that's that. I have redone the deployment plan around those dates and the team is busy gathering readiness of the offices to see who can go on the 7th and who will get the extra three weeks.
It really is sad for me as I won't be around to see the system go truly global. It's also a resourcing nightmare as the two new folks replacing us will only start Jan 14th and so will be of little help with the additional work in January.
All in all I think it was the right decision. This was definitely the most interesting go/no-go decision I have ever been apart of as every single person in this organization feels they should have their individual say into the decision and it boggles my mind how all that input can be managed.
Susan did a fabulous job in wading through the politics and whinging and making a very smart recommendation.
I wish the team all the luck in the world and can't wait to get the email that the system is global. Tomorrow is my last day at Plan and it will be a sad one. So cliche to say but the people here are fabulous and I will miss them a lot. It really does feel good to work for an organization that is doing good and with people who sacrafice a lot to work here. Amazing folks!
I'll be in the UK for an extra week and look forward to touring about a bit and just relaxing. I am also super pumped for my journey home on the 22nd. I can't wait to jump in the snow and hug my family and friends and pat Franklin!
Here's a couple more shots of the folks around here from our Plan Christmas Party last week. Yes, it's actually called a Christmas party and not a Holiday party and, at last count there are 4 Christmas trees in the office...and one of them is real! woohoo!
Conor Sheehy, consultant - Public Service, applies his Accenture consulting skills far from his London office in Freetown, Sierra Leone. Sheehy, in partnership with Accenture Development Partnerships, is working with Plan International – a non-profit a humanitarian, development organization that works with families and their communities to meet the needs of children around the world.
December 3 - One year older and clearly no smarter!
Happy Monday! Only 9.5 more work days left. Can you believe it!??!? It seems like just yesterday I was weepy-Tina-nearly-missing-her-flight and now I am frantic-Tina-trying-to-finish-her-work-and-enjoy-the-rest-of-her-time-here.
Wanted to say thanks to everyone who sent birthday greetings and everyone who has sent messages that make me more and more excited about coming home. I hear there is snow so that's great! The sun is shining here in the UK!
One more week until we go live around the world so keep your fingers and toes crossed for me. I'll be happy to see it in place but sad that all the work is done.
I had a couple of folks aske me about supporting Plan so here's the link to the Canadian site in case you want to take a look. I would be happy to chat off-line with anyone who has questions about how the money is used and my opinions on the efficiency of this (and other) NGOs which I think is a smart thing to have an insite into before you invest your money.

Discussion in 'Apple and Mac OS X' started by Danishblunt, Jul 17, 2018.
yes ladies and gents. Apple has indeed shoved the I9 on a 25W TDP cooling solution and the I9 cannot even stay at base clocks.
Bravo Apple, you created the ultimate abomination of a notebook.
All the other thin and lights seem like god tier notebooks compared to this garbage.
Georgel, sicily428, Vasudev and 8 others like this.
On a scale of 0 to the i9 in the 2018 MBP, just how bad is the thermal throttling in the i9 Dell 9570? I had almost pulled the trigger on the i9 2018 MBP before then seeing that Apple was using a 25W TDP cooling solution for the i9. Should I switch to the i9-9570 now?
High end hardare + thin and light = RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
It's nothing but scam. The I9 will run at clockspeeds which are absolutely garbage in every thin and light. Even 8750H doesn't run at full speed on thin and lights. Either you go for bulky with performance or thin and light with poop performance, you can't have both.
The best comproimise would be the Alienware with the I9, it's not that bulky and runs the CPU no problem.

The alianware is not a "comproimise" its a 7.7Lb so called "laptop". A much better comproimise is the GE63.
The I9 in the XPS will be a joke. But I would wait for reviews to test that.
Based on the information provided by the both of you, I am befuddled as to the ability of the 15 2018 MBP to run the 2.2Ghz 8750H at its turbo clock speed of 4.1 Ghz.
It can't run it at max turbo. It will throttle.
They should really stop putting chips ultra-high end (for laptops, at least) into thin and lights form factor devices.
Can you stop spreading BS and misleading people? Thank you very much.
Neither the Omen, Asus nor the GE 63 can sustain their 3.9ghz on full load. People who purchase notebooks for their CPU power are interested in some kind of rendering. We do not talk about gaming which consumes much less power, but actual full on, rendering. No thin and light can keep the 8750H on full 3.9ghz to my knowledge.
You clearly have no clue what you're talking about and should stop spreading nonsense.
@stonesrubber1 No way on this planet will the MBP run the 8750H @ full turbo. Hell would rather freeze before that happens.
triturbo, 9ac3, Vistar Shook and 2 others like this.
Thin and lights can break the 1200 CB mark when undervolted.
A GP/GE63 can run the I7 8750H at 68c in BF1 with full turbo(cooler boost). You're telling me it can't do 3.9Ghz while rendering ?
And an aero 15X throttling to 3.5~3.7Ghz is a thousand times better than a 7.7 pound "laptop".
Remember that the aero 15x is the one Dave2D is using as a comparison.
So you think people who do rendering should go from 4.4Lb to 7.7lb to cut half a minute from the render time ? .
Starlight5 and Kent T like this.
@Danishblunt @ahmad hendeh, thank you for the information provided. Is there any thin and light laptop that is capable of handing its processor @ full turbo?


Carrie reached out to me that her son was in town from out-of-state, and her family was all together for Christmas. She asked if I was available to get some photos for them before they all dispersed back to their homes.
They were a such a great family. They all seemed to really enjoy each other and made our time together entertaining. I was happy to be able to get some family photos while they were all together for the holidays!
The night before this session, Zoe and I texted back and forth. They were calling for snow the following day.
The next morning, the snow was falling in epic proportions. I went outside and took a few test shots in the snow and texted Zoe that I was willing to try if she was. It wasn't too cold out, but there were some big, wet flakes falling. We both agreed that they would be some pretty awesome photos, especially since we were meeting at a local Christmas tree farm for the session.
When we met up for the session, believe me when I say we moved pretty quick. I brought some towels and a blanket with me in case we needed to warm anyone up. We walked into the tree farm and WAM, BAM, DONE!
I couldn't be happier with this session. Everyone looked great. The snow fell beautifully. Nobody froze. We got some great family photos.

Q: semantic analysis in case of syntax errors detected during syntax analysing I know that syntax  analysis  is needed to determine if the series of tokens given are appropriate in a language (by parsing these tokens to produce a syntax tree), and detect errors occurred during the parsing of input code, which caused by grammatically incorrect statements.
I also know that semantic analysis is then performed on the syntax tree to produce an annotated tree ,checking  aspects that are not related to the syntactic form( like type correctness of expressions and declaration prior to use) , detecting errors occurred during the execution of the code, after it has been parsed as grammatically correct.
However , the following issue is not clear to me :
In case of syntax error detected by the syntax analyzer - does it mean that should be no semantic analysis ? Or perhaps the recovery from errors (in syntax analysis) should make the semantic analysis possible to  be carried out?

A: When you compile an incorrect program, you generally want the compiler to inform you about as many problems as possible, so that you can fix them all before attempting to compile the program again. However, you don't want the compiler to report the same error many times, or to report things which are not really errors but rather the result of the compiler getting confused by previous errors.
Or am I projecting my expectations on you? Perhaps I should have written that whole paragraph in first person, since it is really about what I expect from a compiler. Perhaps you have different expectations. Or perhaps your expectations are similar to mine. Whatever they are, you should probably write your compiler to satisfy them. That's basically the point of writing your own compiler.
So, if you share my expectations, you probably want to do as much semantic analysis as you can feel reasonably confident about. You might, for example, be able to do type checking inside some functions, because there are no syntax errors within those functions. On the other hand, that's a lot of work and there's always the chance that the resulting error messages will not be helpful.
That's not very precise, because there really is no definitive answer. But you should at least be able to answer your own question on your own behalf.  If your compiler does a lousy job of error reporting and you find that frustrating when you try to use your compiler, then you should work on making the reports better. (But, of course, time is limited and you might well feel that your compiler will be better if it optimises better, even though the error reports are not so great.)

Карл Гуннар Эмануэль Сеттерваль (; 18 августа 1881, Стокгольм — 26 февраля 1928, там же) — шведский теннисист, призёр Олимпийских игр 1908 и 1912 годов.

Гуннар родился в семье железнодорожного магната и миллионера Карла Сеттерваля (1842—1909). После смерти отца возглавил семейный бизнес, совмещая его с профессиональными занятиями теннисом. Более 16 лет Сеттерваль считался сильнейшим теннисистом Швеции, выиграв 12 национальных чемпионатов в одиночном разряде, а также серебряную медаль мирового первенства 1913 года. Однако прежде всего он известен успешными выступлениями на международных соревнованиях в парном разряде.

На лондонской Олимпиаде 1908 года Сеттерваль в паре со своим соотечественником Вольмаром Бустрёмом выиграл бронзовые медали в парном разряде в помещении. Четыре года спустя он выиграл три медали (2 серебра и 1 бронзу) на Олимпиаде 1908 года в Стокгольме в парах с Сигрид Фик и Карлом Кемпе.

Гуннар Сеттерваль был лично знаком с шведской королевской семьёй. Сам король Густав V был его постоянным теннисным партнёром. В 1906 году Сеттерваль и Густав, ещё бывший в то время кронпринцем, стали победителями парного международного турнира в Мальмё, победив в финале будущего партнёра Гуннара на Олимпийских играх Карла Кемпе, игравшего в паре с англичанином Дерингом.
