High rainfall, yet 40% of the wells depict decline in groundwater
Team Udayavani, Jul 20, 2018, 10:48 AM IST
In the span of a month, water has declined in more than 50% of the wells; the solution, water percolation pits.
A decline of water level by half-a-meter has been witnessed at wells in Kayyur Cheemeni, Badiyadka, Bandadadka, Kuttikkol, Delampady, Karadka, Kanhangad, Neeleshwar, Kumbanje, Trakkaripura, Mooliyar, Chengala, Paivalike, Puttige, Yenmakaje, Manjeshwara, Mangalpady, Varkady and other panchayats. Meanwhile, the water level in 40 wells at Kodom-Cheluru, West Yeleri, East Yelari and other panchayats has increased by up to 2 meters.
Kasaragod: Though there is enough rainfall, the groundwater level has declined in close to 40% wells in the district. But, at some places, the same water level has increased by up to two meters.
It is understood that the fall in water levels in close to 40% of the wells in the district is due to the research done on 66 wells in the district by the district groundwater department. Though there were heavy rains from June 10th to July 10th, the water level in the well has declined by almost half, in a span of one month. At the same time, water level has increased to more than expectation in up to 60% of the other wells. In 26 observation wells, the water level has declined by half-a-meter while, in four wells the water level has declined by up to 2 meters.
The groundwater department officials explain that according to the calculations, though there was a flood, the amount of water getting absorbed into the ground is quite less. It has been observed at observational wells in Cheemeni, Delampady, Chengala and Kinanuru-Karimdalam panchayats, that though there was heavy rain, the water level in the wells has declined, they informed.
In the month of June, the total rainfall was measured at 1,142.37mm. In comparison to last year's rainfall, the amount of rainfall this year is more. Yet, of all the wells in the district, the rainfall has not helped in increasing the water level in almost half of the wells. The water from the downpour simply flows away through the water drains and gutters. It is being supposed that once the monsoon season is over, water problems will arise.
Only flowing water and no absorption is the reason
Water percolation pits must be created for the water to drain down into the ground. In this way, the water drains down into the ground and increases the water in groundwater table. Due to the change in farming methods and the rise in buildings due to urbanization, rain water is not getting drained into the ground but instead, just flowing away, explain the experts from the groundwater department.

Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an inherited disorder of connective tissue that is historically associated with high mortality due to disorders of the cardiovascular system. Over the past 40 years, surgery to the aortic root and thoracoabdominal aorta has resulted in a significantly prolonged life expectancy. More recently, techniques for endovascular repair of the aortic complications of MFS have been described. In this article we review the relative merits of open and endovascular approaches to thoracic aortic complications in MFS, comparing outcomes from contemporary literature. A reasonably large body of evidence has developed concerning the surgical treatment of the aortic root, ascending thoracic aorta, and arch in MFS. It is clear from large series that pathology, such as acute type A dissections and aneurysmal dilatation, can be successfully repaired with low mortality. Recently published series, although reporting smaller numbers, have demonstrated that the same is true for open surgical replacement of descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. The evidence for thoracic endovascular aortic repair in MFS is much more limited. Small series and registry or case reports describe a heterogeneous group of patients with only short-term follow-up. Outcomes of endovascular repair are mixed, with questionable longevity. Reoperation is, however, common in MFS, and minimally invasive techniques may provide a bridging role or alternative solution when revisiting the hostile surgical field.

TOP TIPS...
Fighting Infobesity
An American friend was telling me he was at a dinner having a fascinating conversation with some very influential people. But one of the dinner guests a senator, had his head down the whole time. "I thought he was falling asleep. But, lo and behold, after dinner he discovered he had actually been reading his Blackberry!"
I have another friend who all his wife wanted on Valentine's day was a no iPhone dinner with her husband!
Susan Maushart, author of the new book, 'The Winter of Our Disconnect', describes this kind of addiction to media with the marvellous term "infobesity."
Just as some people have a growing reputation-if you'll pardon the pun-for physical obesity, we also have an expanding commitment to staying "connected" through social media such as Facebook and devices such as smart phones.
And just as too much of a good thing-such as food- can be unhealthy for us, so also can too much social and electronic networking. And I mean that literally!
In January some security cameras in Reading, Pennsylvania, recorded a shopper who was so busy texting as she was walking along in a mall that she didn't see a fountain in front of her-and fell right into the pool.
The video went viral, and millions had a laugh at the poor woman's expense.
Far more serious is thousands of New Zealanders send text messages or use their mobile phones while driving. No wonder "distracted driving" fatalities are on the rise.
In her new book, 'Alone Together', MIT professor Sherry Turkle writes that technology-despite its many obvious benefits-is also threatening to increase our isolation and make us less human. Experts say e-mail, online games, social networking, and blogs are addicting in part because they are portable, provide instant gratification, and allow us an easy escape from relationships that may be difficult and require a lot more work.
Sharon Gilchrest O'Neill, a marriage and family therapist in New York, suggests that "Technology should be on the list of the top reasons why people divorce, along with money, sex and parenting."
Of course, technology can be a blessing. Many people rightly point out that Facebook, rather than forcing them into isolation, has helped them find old friends and neighbours.
So how do we know whether as a family we are suffering from infobesity? Why not try a tech-fast, maybe for a day. Don't use your iPhone, don't sign in to Facebook, whatever your tech weakness is, just withdraw for a while, and see what happens.
If that seems too radical or impossible to attempt, then I'm afraid you probably do have an advanced case of infobesity. And, please, watch out for those mall fountains.

Android Beam je funkce mobilního operačního systému Android, která umožňuje posílat data pomocí technologie NFC (Near field communication). Umožňuje tak rychlou výměnu dat na krátkou vzdálenost (většinou přímým dotykem dvou zařízení). Je možné přenášet různorodá data, jako jsou webové záložky, kontaktní informace, pokyny, videa z YouTube a další. Android Beam byl poprvé představen v Androidu 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich).

Popis

Použití
Android Beam se aktivuje umístěním dvou zařízení zadními stranami k sobě, přičemž sdílen bude obsah, který je zobrazen na obrazovce jednoho ze zařízení. Je-li možné obsah odeslat, obsah na obrazovce se zmenší a v horní části se zobrazí zpráva "Dotykem přeneste". Klepnutí na obrazovku pošle obsah z jednoho zařízení na druhé. Pokud jsou zařízení ve své blízkosti a připravena k přenosu, dojde k přehrání zvuku. Po přenosu dat je přehrán buď potvrzovací tón nebo negativní tón, který označuje chybu při přenosu. Přenášený obsah poté zmizí z obrazovky zařízení, což označuje že je přenos kompletní. Sdílení je pouze jednosměrné a odesílající zařízení nezíská žádný obsah ze zařízení přijímajícího.

Požadavky
Pro aktivaci funkce Android Beam musí obě zařízení podporovat technologii NFC, mít tuto technologii a funkci Android Beam povolenou v nastavení zařízení a mít odemčenou obrazovku.

Aktualizace 4.1 (Jelly Bean)
Od Androidu 4.1 (Jelly Bean) mohou zařízení používat Android Beam pro odesílání fotek a videí přes Bluetooth. Android Beam používá NFC k zapnutí Bluetooth na obou zařízeních, k jejich okamžitému spárování a k opětovnému vypnutí Bluetooth po dokončení přenosu na obou zařízeních. Toto funguje pouze mezi zařízení s Androidem verze 4.1 a vyššími.

Podpora aplikací
Pro přenos určitého obsahu musí mít aplikace přidanou podporu pro Android Beam, aby mohla kontrolovat obsah, který bude odeslán. Pokud aplikace neurčí data pro přenos, bude stejná aplikace otevřena i na přijímajícím zařízení. V případě že přijímající zařízení nemá aplikaci nainstalovanou, otevře se stránka aplikace v Google Play Store.

Android Beam a další platformy
Android Beam může být použit k odesílání všeobecných dat, jako jsou kontaktní karty, webové stránky a další základní data přes Bluetooth.

Omezení
Přenos z YouTube pomocí aplikace Android YouTube nebo jiných platformově specifikovaných dat nelze uskutečnit, protože to vyžaduje druhé zařízení s podporou Android Beam pro otevření aplikace a pozastavení videa na zaslané pozici přehrávání.

Zařízení s Apple iOS nemají standardní sdílení souborů přes Bluetooth. Android Beam je omezen na zařízení se systémem Android, přenos fotografií a videí na jiné platformy není v současné době podporován.

S Beam
S Beam je rozšíření Android Beam od společnosti Samsung, poprvé bylo použito na telefonech Galaxy S III. Používá technologii NFC (Near field communication) k vytvoření spojení pomocí Wi-Fi Direct pro přenos dat mezi dvěma zařízeními. To má za následek vyšší rychlost přenosu mezi zařízeními, která jsou vybavena funkcí S Beam.

S Beam vs Android Beam
Na rozdíl od Android Beam, S Beam používá k přenosu Wi-Fi Direct namísto Bluetooth, což má za následek rychlejší přenos dat. S Beam je ale omezen na zařízení s podporou této funkce, Wi-Fi Direct, NFC a na zařízení Samsung, jako je např. Samsung Galaxy S III.

Padres vs. Cardinals: Game 3 live stream, TV channel, start time, odds, for NL Wild Card Series
Here's a look at the TV info, pitching matchup and more:
Pitching matchup
Odds (via William Hill Sportsbook)
This is where the Padres have a clear advantage. During the regular season, the Padres — fronted by dual MVP candidates Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado — scored 5.42 runs per game, which was good for third in the NL. The Cardinals, meantime, averaged 4.14 runs per game, which ranked just 12th in the NL. The Pads also beat the Cards in OPS by more than 100 points, and they out-homered them by a margin of 95 to 51. Along these lines, it bears mentioning that Petco Park — both this season and in recent seasons — has played as slightly more of a pitcher's park than Busch Stadium has. In any context, the Padres are far superior offensively. Adjust for ballpark effects, and the Padres' OPS is 19 percent better than the league average, while the Cardinals' park-adjusted OPS is 10 percent worse than the league average. STL +130; SDP -140; O/U: 9 Playing 53 games in 44 days will obviously do a number on your pitching staff, and that's the case with the Cardinals. On top of all that, they have some injury concerns coming into this series. Miles Mikolas won't pitch this season, and Dakota Hudson — the team's most consistent starter this regular season — recently learned he'll need to undergo Tommy John surgery. As well, John Gant, one of manager Mike Shildt's go-to guys out of the bullpen, may miss the first round with a groin strain. Throw in ace Jack Flaherty's lack of consistency in 2020, and the Cardinals' big strength, run prevention, may be less of a strength right now. Fri., Oct. 2 7 p.m. ET ESPN
And here are three things to know about this series.
The offenses are a mismatch
The St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Padres will play a winner-take-all Game 3 in their Wild Card Series on Friday night. A spot in the NLDS against the Dodgers is up for grabs. The Padres, the No. 4 seed and host of the best-of-three series, stormed from behind in Game 2 to even the series. They'll try to carry that momentum over in Friday's Game 3.

Wealth is also as a result of the function of your network. Your network determines your net worth. The quality of the value you provide and the quality of your relationships ultimately determines your net worth.
• Health: This is consists of spiritual, emotional, physical, and mental.
• Cashflow and Riches: This includes savings, investments, and your earnings or revenue.
• Power: Inclusive of spiritual and temporal influence.
It is important to understand that there is a huge difference between "wellbeing" and "being well off". Wellbeing is identical with wealth while being well off is identical to riches. Wealth and riches are not one or the same thing. Being wealthy is not about money; being wealthy is about value and essence.
The wealthiest set of people in the world such as Bill Gate, Carlos Slim, Warren Buffett, Amancio Ortega, Mark Zuckerberg, Aliko Dangote, Oprah Winfrey, Folorunsho Alakija; are where they are today because they understand the following powerful principles of wealth creation.
You need to have a personal will to conquer the world in your chosen fields of endeavour. You need to be intentional about creating solutions to problems, creating value as well as creating wealth. You need to ask yourself these questions – Do I have a personal will to succeed? Do I have a personal will to become wealthy? What personal mandate and command drives me? Your answers to these questions will give you insight on how intentional you are to create wealth.
Wealthy people have identified their specific fields and they have remained there consistently over the years. These people are attentive, focused, and sensitive to problems and they are also looking for the most sustainable way to create solutions through their spheres of endeavour. They have not gone outside of their field to provide solutions to other problems. They have stayed, given attention and have remained focused within their identified fields. Many focus on their challenges and miseries rather than their ambitions and opportunities. Also, avoid everything that weakens you and only give attention to those things that strengthens you.
Wealthy people have identified their areas of passion and have committed their energy to it. Many lose their energy to negativity and many have lost their passion. Where do you waste your energy? What are you passionate about? What do you do that you never seem to get tired of? What is it that you do most naturally and you don't have to struggle? What is it that you love? Focus therein, because therein lies your wealth. Stay focused on that area and give all your time, energy and attention there. Your energy flows where your energy grows.
Wealthy people are driven by their conviction and core belief. This is what propels them in business and personal success. You need to believe in yourself, in your dreams as well as solutions that you were born to solve. If you do, you need to remain in it, because it is your passion and belief that will get people to believe in you and invest in you. You also need to have a healthy self-esteem in order to have that conviction and belief in yourself.
Wealthy and successful people have identified their personal skills and competencies over the years. They have grown from who they are to whom they have come to be and they have lived their lives consistently with the attitude of growth and learning. If your wealth is not growing, it is already dwindling.
What areas of your life do you need development? What areas of your life do you lack the competencies to grow and to become the wealthy person that you want to be? What kind of personal development is best for you? You must also constantly grow and learn for yesterday's knowledge or revelation could be obsolete for today's lifestyle. Your result and outcome in life will expand only at the same rate as your personal growth. If you are not growing, you are dying.
This is the action of serving, helping or benefitting another. It is defined as the behaviour that is conducive to the welfare or the advantage of another. "We make a living by what we get but we make a life by what we give" – Winston Chrurchill. Service is something done not for yourself but for the benefits of another person. It is the provision of facilities to meet the needs or for the use of another person. "Not he who has much is rich, but he who gives much away" – Erich Fromm. For you to become successful or wealthy in life you must be willing to serve; and that service is not to you but to other people. Just like in the game of Table Tennis, those who serve well win easily and those who do not serve well, end up losing. Wealthiest men in the world attained this position as a result of setting up businesses and developing products and services that provides service to humanity.
• Intentions connect your wealth desires and goals to the field of possibilities.
• Attention keeps your wealth desires and goals linked to your possibility field.
• Belief manifests your wealth desires and goals.
• Growth keeps and increases your wealth desires and goals and ultimately, it ensures sustainability.
• Service brings more wealth and creates satisfaction and more achievements.

Portland Timbers Transfers and Rumors
Wild Rumor: Nigel Reo-Coker Turns Down Portland Timbers in Hopes of Joining West Brom
The latest rumor in this incredibly bizarre saga has it that Nigel Reo-Coker has turned down the Portland Timbers with hopes to join EPL side: West Bromwich Albion.
By Geoff Gibson Feb 4, 2013, 8:43am PST
Share All sharing options for: Wild Rumor: Nigel Reo-Coker Turns Down Portland Timbers in Hopes of Joining West Brom
Laurence Griffiths
It was always kind of a wacky rumor and one that never really seemed to make sense for any of the parties involved. According to the rumor, English midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker was told by USMNT head coach Jurgen Klinsmann that if he wanted to have a chance of getting called up for US Soccer, he would have to join an MLS side. Note: Reo-Coker is not American, but apparently has an American wife. This rumor then spun into both the Portland Timbers and New York Red Bulls being involved in trying to bring him to the states.
Fast forward to today and apparently the UK's Daily Mail, which I'm told is not held in high esteem, is reporting that a deal being brokered between Portland and Reo-Coker has fallen through. Instead, the Englishman will attempt to sign a contract with West Bromwich Albion of the English Premier League, a move which seems to make far more sense.
To be honest, I'm not sure where Reo-Coker fit in which the Portland Timbers. Would he have been an instant upgrade over our current midfielders? Perhaps, but with a roster full of new and exciting midfielders eager to prove their worth to the Timbers, I don't know why the FO would bother. It just made absolutely no sense.
In the end, I don't believe there was anything substantial to this rumor. Especially with Merritt Paulson's most recent tweet:
@nasnportland please.I learned who this guy is through twitter.
— Merritt Paulson (@MerrittPaulson) February 4, 2013
It really just seemed like a ploy from all involved to get some headlines. Moving on!
What would you have thought of Nigel Reo-Coker moving to Portland?


Microsoft Translator enables you to translate text or speech, have translated conversations, and even download languages to use offline. Microsoft Translator is a multilingual machine translation cloud service provided by Microsoft. The Microsoft Translator API is integrated across multiple consumer, developer, and enterprise products; including Bing, Microsoft Office, Yammer, Microsoft Lync, Internet Explorer, Skype Translator, SharePoint, Visual Studio, and Microsoft Translator apps for Windows, iPhone, Windows Phone, and Apple Watch, and Android phone and Android Wear.
The Multilingual App Toolkit (MAT) is an integrated Visual Studio tool, which allows developers to streamline localization workflows of their Windows, Windows Phone and desktop apps. MAT improves localization of file management, translation support, and editing tools.
The service supports 60 language systems as of April 2017. It also supports 10 speech translation systems that currently power Skype Translator and Skype for Windows Desktop, and the Microsoft Translator Apps for iOS and Android.
Russian, Romanian, Serbian (Cyrillic), Slovak, Slovenian, Serbian (Latin), Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Tahitian, Turkish, Urdu, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, Welsh, and Yucatec Maya.
Microsoft Translator also offers text and speech translation through a cloud API as a service for businesses. Service for text translation ranges from a free tier supporting two million characters per month to paid tiers supporting billions of characters per month. The speech translation API, released in March 2016, is offered based on time of the audio stream and ranges from a free tier of 2 hours per month to paid tiers of up to 100 of hours per month.
Microsoft Translator uses machine translation to create instantaneous translations from one natural language to another. Let's know something about Microsoft Translator API.
The Microsoft Translator API is a cloud-based automatic translation service that can be used to build applications, websites, and tools requiring multi-language support.
Speech translation: The Microsoft Translator API is an end-to-end REST based API that can be used to build applications, tools, or any solution requiring multi-languages speech translation. Speech to speech translation is available to or from any of the conversation languages, and speech to text translation is available from the conversation languages into any of the 60 supported language systems.
Text translation: The API can be used to translate text into any of the languages supported by the service.
Text to speech: Translated text can be converted into speech output using speech synthesis.
Microsoft Translator is powered by cutting-edge technology used by Office, Bing, Skype, Internet Explorer as well as by partners such as Twitter, Yelp, eBay, WeChat and more.  You have to remember some note that some features are not available in all languages.
Location Permission: Microsoft only uses your location to show you where conversation occurred. Microsoft this location in your conversation history.
Let's know something about what's new in this Microsoft Translator App.
The quality of Microsoft Translator's machine translation outputs are evaluated using a method called the BLEU score. BLEU (Bilingual Evaluation Understudy) is an algorithm for evaluating the quality of text which has been machine-translated from one natural language to another. BLEU was one of the first metrics to achieve a high correlation with human judgments of quality, and remains one of the most popular automated and inexpensive metrics. Quality is considered to be the correspondence between a machine's output and that of a human.
In November 2016, Microsoft Translator introduced translation using deep neural networks in nine of its highest traffic languages, including all of its speech languages and Japanese. Neural networks provide better translation than industry standard statistical machine learning.

How can a remote DBA expert help you with database implementation for your business?
(Unsplash/Tirza van Dijk)
* Partner Post
Storing is a job which has to be done very carefully. Especially when it is related to data of a company, proper care has to be taken. There was a time when people used to store only manual documents as their records, and normally all transactions were happening in one place only, and it could be viewed only in that place. Even if someone wants the related documents, it used to take a lot of time in sending them those details. Even though some records were maintained by writing it in some books manually, documents were important.
No matter how many years, they used to store it. The tradition of storing is followed till today. Only the pattern has changed. From the time digitalization has concurred the people's mind, there has been a lot of improvement in the field of storage. Nowadays people believe in storing all records digitally in a database. Anyone with proper authorization can view the records on this internet platform. Hence, a database can be referred to as a place of recording all transactions. It depends on the designing of database what exactly can be stored in it. So whenever any company is planning to record all its transactions digitally, it has to get the database designed by a good designer. Not only viewing, but authorized people can also edit or delete the entries in a database.
Types of databases
Even though the database is useful, access depends on the type of database. Following are some of the types of databases.
End-user database: The end user mainly utilizes this kind of database. The end user is that person who takes the ultimate benefit of the software or product. Not only one user, if the authority is given then, but a set of users can also make use of the information. Normally all employees are given access to this database, but it depends on their work profile how much access they get.
Centralized database: This is a database which is controlled by the headquarters of a company. However, people from a distinct location can access the information only if they are provided with the authorization. Visit RemoteDBA.com to enjoy the benefit of accessing the centralized database.
Operational database: This type of database is maintained to record all operational transactions such as sales, purchases, etc. which are more used by the marketing, and production team. So only those personnel are given the access to such information.
Personal database: This is a database which contains all personal data and is meant to be viewed only by limited users.
Managing a database is a technique. Database management system can be referred to as a system of managing a group of software applications or programs. It is mainly used to create, organize, retrieve, analyze and index the computer databases. There are many database management systems like databases which are navigational such as hierarchical database model and network model; relational model; object-oriented etc.
Let us concentrate on the relational database management system. RDBMS, in short, is a type of database management system which consists of data stored in rows and columns. In other words, it is a row-based structure which relates data elements and includes maintain related to accuracy, integrity, consistency, and security of data.
RDBMS functions can be summarized as CRUD which means create, read, update and delete the transactions.
Accessing the data in RDBMS is easy, and it can be done through SQL. The language SQL is so user-friendly that many functional departments like bank and travel agencies choose to work in RDBMS environment
Some of the database software developed is IBM DB2, Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft SQL, Oracle RDBMS and ADABAS. Oracle database is a relational database management system (RDBMS) which was innovated by the Oracle Corporation. Lawrence Ellison originally developed it in 1977, and even other developers have a contribution to the achievement. It is known to be the most trusted and used widely.
How big can a database be?
Till now we have understood the importance of a database and its management. But has anyone ever given a thought towards the size of a database? Well, it depends on the user and the type of company which is the using the database. Well if the type of database is an end user, then it is sure to be bulky always because it contains lots and lots of information. So, the database has to be very big.
So, to design a database, the designer has first to do some calculations. The designer has to first decision regarding the space required for data storage in a table. The word "table" is used because, in RDBMS, the data is stored in rows and columns which form a table.
First, decide the number of rows and columns that your database requires. Your column may be of fixed length or variable length. If you are considering fixed length columns, then whatever may be the text or data length, the database will accept only the data which matches the text length in the database. Whereas in variable length, the database will accept any number of characters of any data type. So it depends on the data validation for columns and rows. Even the data type also has to be considered while calculating the space required in a table. The data types available are general; text; number (integers; with or without decimals); date (short and long) and memo field, etc.
Once you decide the data you want the database to store, the columns will be fixed. Now as and when the data is fed into the RDBMS, the number of rows will increase. As a designer you have every option of restructuring the database, i.e., add, modify or delete the fields as per the requirement. So whenever you are planning to restructure the database, always take a backup of the data.

What Does it Mean to Be an Accredited Surgery Center?
Did you know that our surgery centers have already attained or are seeking voluntary accreditation? Accreditation means that the center has achieved adherence to the exacting standards and guidelines established by the national accrediting bodies such as the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care, Inc., or The Joint Commission.
Like Medicare certification, achieving accreditation is a hallmark of surgery center quality and requires a substantial commitment of time and resources. Center and corporate staff devote their efforts to understanding, implementing and documenting the ways in which each surgery center meets (or exceeds) the specifications required for accreditation. We conduct mock surveys in advance of the actual visits by the accrediting organizations in order to be fully prepared.
Our accreditation experts have prepared for and participated in hundreds of successful surveys. We gather and share the information we learn from our ongoing accreditation activities in a quarterly newsletter which we provide to every AMSURG center. These tips, gained from real experience, promote each center's continuous quality improvement efforts.
Members of the AMSURG Quality team actually serve as national surveyors (although, of course, they do not participate in the surveys at AMSURG centers!). One currently serves on the AAAHC Standards Development Committee that actually establishes the measures by which surgery centers are evaluated.
AMSURG is also in a Corporate Quality Alliance with AAAHC, which provides us with additional educational resources and discounts.
Our efforts to attain and maintain accreditation at AMSURG surgery centers are just another example of our enduring commitment to quality patient care.

Jharkhand activist raided again in connection with Bhima-Koregaon incident, civil society furious
Stan Swamy, the 82-year-old Human Rights activist
Ranchi: The residence of 83-year-old Stan Swamy, a well-known activist from Jharkhand, was once again raided by the Maharashtra police today morning in Ranchi.
The eight-member police team searched Stan Swamy's belongings for about three-and-half hours. They took Stan's hard disk and internet modem and forced him to share the passwords for his email and Facebook accounts. Thereafter, they changed the passwords and seized the accounts. Maharashtra police had raided the Jharkhand activist's residence last year on August 28, 2018.
Stan works for the rights of Adivasis and other underprivileged groups in the state. Among other issues, he also works on displacement, corporate loot of resources, the condition of undertrials and PESA. Stan has been a vocal critic of the government's attempts to amend land laws and the land acquisition act in Jharkhand. He is also a strong advocate for the Forest Rights Act, PESA and other related laws. He also happens to be an exceptionally gentle, honest and public-spirited person.
Stan on January 26, the Republic Day this year had written an open letter to the common man of India, seeking their support to question the authority about the declining Human Right situation in India.
Following the raids by the Maharashtra police, Jharkhand Janadhikar Mahasabha (JJM), an umbrella body of progressive activists has strongly condemned the police action.
The Mahasabha, which claims of having the highest regard for Stan and his works, is shocked by the intimidation and arrests of activists and public intellectuals who are critical of the government and the ruling party at the Centre.
It, in a press communiqué, stated that last year, Surendra Gadling, Sudhir Dhawale, Mahesh Raut, Shoma Sen, and Rona Wilson were arrested on 6 June 2018, and they continue to be held imprisoned in the Yerwada Central Jail.
In 2018, the police arrested five more activists – Sudha Bharadwaj, Arun Ferreira, Vernon Gonsalves, Varavara Rao and Gautam Navlakha. They too are yet to be released.
"These imprisonments are nothing but an attempt by the government to strike terror among those who are fighting for the rights of the marginalized," states the press note.
It further added that the central government and media houses close to the BJP claim that the human rights activists were part of a Maoist conspiracy related to the Bhima-Koregaon incident. This concocted story seems to be part of a larger propaganda, based on terms like "urban naxals", aimed at stifling any criticism of the government.
The raids and arrests are part of the government's growing attempts to stifle dissent and intimidate those who are fighting for justice.
"JJM demands an immediate end to the raids, dropping of all false charges against human rights activists across the country and release of those who are arrested. These harassments are politically motivated and wholly unjustified," read the press note.

Al-Muzaffar Háddzsi, trónra lépése előtt Zajn ad-Dín Háddzsi ibn an-Nászir Muhammad (? – Egyiptom, Kairó, 1347 decembere) an-Nászir Muhammad fia, az egyiptomi türk (elterjedt, de pontatlan névvel bahri) mamlúkok tizennyolcadik szultánja, egyben az 1382-ig uralkodó kalávúnida dinasztia kilencedik tagja volt (uralkodott 1346 szeptemberétől haláláig). Teljes titulusa al-Malik al-Muzaffar, melynek jelentése: "a győzedelmes király".

Azután került trónra – hatodikként Muhammad szultán nyolc fia közül –, hogy féltestvérét, al-Kámil Saabánt és befolyásos mostohaapját, Argún al-Aláit lázadás buktatta meg 1346 szeptemberében. Háddzsit is csak kölcsönös szerződések fejében ismerték el az előkelőségek szultánnak, de az ő uralma sem volt tartós, részint a szokásos probléma (a régi adminisztráció és a szultán új embereinek ellentéte), részint az uralkodó különcségei miatt. Kirívó módon elmerült a hárem örömeiben – az ő kedvence is a fekete lantosnő, Ittifák volt, ahogy két elődjéé is –, és elképesztően nagy összegeket költött a hölgyekre (Ittifáknak például volt egy százezer dénár értékű koronája). A felháborodott emírek a kincstáron keresztül nyomást kifejtve elérték, hogy a szultán menessze ágyasait, köztük Ittifákot is, ám az intézkedéssel nem értek el semmit: Háddzsi új elfoglaltságot talált magának az uralkodás helyett, mégpedig a galambászatot. A pohár egy cserkesz főember megbuktatásával telt be: a mamlúkok szervezkedni kezdtek, ami 1347 decemberében derült ki. Háddzsi serege élére állt, hogy felvegye a harcot a konspirátorokkal, ám hadai még Kairó külvárosában elhagyták őt, így elfogták és meggyilkolták.

Utódául tizenegy éves féltestvérét, an-Nászir Haszant nevezték ki, aki – megszakítással ugyan, de – már jóval hosszabb ideig viselte szultáni címét, mint hat elődje. A trónharcok eredményeképpen egyik fia, Muhammad 1360–1363 között viselte a szultáni rangot.

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was a German-American architect who is commonly referred to as Mies. He is known to be one of the modern architect as well as the pioneer of the modern architecture. His ability to craft elegant and highly simply epitomized international style of architecture. His designs were known by many to be an exemplifying format of Less is More. He demonstrates a forthright in the use of the most modern tools at that period. With his exceptional and highly wonderful sense of proportion, he was able to create different architectures. Ludwig Mies has once called his buildings, Skin and bones architecture and always ready to sought an objective approach to creativity in architectural design. He was also known to have created an ultra modern twentieth-century architectural style that is very clear and simple.
Ludwig Mies was born in Aachen, Germany on 27th March 1886. He was known to have helped his father who was then a master mason as well as owning a stonecutter's shop. Mies did not receive any formal architectural training. At the age of 15, he became an apprentice under several Aachen Architects where he learned how to sketch architectural designs. It was then he practiced and learned how to draw and which he used in producing some of the finest architectural designs.
Ludwig Mies later went ahead to become an apprentice to Bruno Paul at the age of 19. His first project was a traditional suburban house which impressed Peter Behrens who was the most progressive architect in Germany as at then. This project got him a job with the architect. He later became a member of Deutscher Werkbund which was an English-German Association of Craftsman. He established himself among other craftsmen. The members decided to use new and innovative instruments which culminated to the internationally acclaimed architectural style.
Ludwig Mies got enlisted during the World War I to overlook the construction of bridges and roads in the Balkans. He later returned to Berlin in 918 where he joined several modernist architectural groups. Ludwig Mies organized and had many exhibitions. At this time, he had no project in his hand but a memorial building of murdered communist leaders, Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg which were demolished by the Nazis. Most of his great and highly important works during this period were on paper only as sketches. He later had one of his first proposal built, a steel-and-glass building, The Friedrichstrasse Office bUilding. He also applied his idea of a glass skyscraper which is meant to be transparent façade revealing the underlying structure. He called it, The Glass Skyscraper.
His house demonstration project in which Europe's 16 leading modernist architects designed various apartment building for the Werkbund Exposition in 1927. The exposition demonstrated how the different factions in the architectural sector had been merged as one. Though the exposition was not very popular, itwas critically acclaimed as the Europe elites suddenly began to commission modern villa. Ludwig Mies was later appointed the director of the Bauhaus which happens to be a school of art. There, he focuses so much on the invention of new forms of expression architecture, painting, and sculpture.
Later, Ludwig Mies moved to the United States where he joined the School of Architecture as a director. He had served as the school's director before he retired after twenty years. Before he retired, the school has become one of the world-renowned school with a disciplined teaching method. At the end of the second world war, his design of glass skyscraper was brought into reality with the Lake Shore Drive Apartments and Seagram Building. He continued building beautiful structures all over the country.
His works were a footprint in the architectural world ranging from his Friedrichstrasse Office Building to the Skyscraper made of glass and steel. Ludwig Mies is known for his principle, Skin, and Bones. He ignored many rules dictated in different guidelines and ensured that he creates his own. Although his works did not receive much attention then, he, however, has his style dominate the corporate architecture years later.
Ludwig Mies received from the Royal Institute of British Architects the Royal Gold Medal in 1959. He also received the AIA Gold Medal from the American Insitute of Architects in 1960. He received such awards later in 1976, 81 and 84 for his works which stood the test of time.
Ludwig Mies van der Rohe married Ada Bruhn, a daughter of a wealthy industrialist in 1913. The couple had three children but got separated in 1918. He fathered a son outside his marriage while he was away for military service in 1917. He later had a relationship with Lilly Reich which ended while he moved to the United States. He, however, died on 17, August 1969 after suffering from Cancer of the esophagus.

When bringing attention to adoptable pets, it's all in good pun

If you're like me, you celebrate the holidays with your pets, including National Cat or Dog Day. We do this because our pets are family and it's only natural for us to include them in the celebrations. But what about using the holidays as a tool to speak up for animals in need?
Though Nevada Humane Society began in 1932, our lifesaving efforts, progressive movement and innovative programs didn't begin until about 2007. That's when the Board of Directors decided to change the mission to one of lifesaving and they hired a new leadership team to make this happen. At that time, we honestly had hundreds and hundreds of animals residing at the shelter daily—literally, three to four times the number of animals that reside here today. We needed to be creative, and quickly, in order to move animals into loving homes and make room for the many homeless pets that entered the shelter every day. We knew right away that getting people in the door to adopt was going to be key. So we got creative.
Our former executive director, Bonney Brown, was known nationwide for her talents in animal welfare. One of my favorite stories she used to share was that of adoption marketing. You see, back then we tried everything. We had certified pre-owned pets for adoption, senior campaigns, and promotions around the holidays. Whatever people were talking about, whatever got people in the door, we would do. After months of testing the waters and gaining a presence in the local and national media for our lifesaving success, we also began to hear from the naysayers. They exist everywhere — you know, the ones who don't believe in what we are doing, don't consider animals family, and so forth.
A woman mailed a letter to Bonney, basically insulting Nevada Humane Society by saying how "stupid" we were for using holidays and trends to make people adopt. She thought we were ridiculous and chastised us. She ended the letter with the statement, "What's next? Arbor Day?"
I'm Chloe, a dapper gal who knows the value of a cozy bed. I'm laid-back and absolutely love a good ear scratch. I'm just fine with time to myself also... just give me a warm, sunny spot to nap, and I'm about as happy as they come. Do I sound like the perfect companion for you? (Photo: Provided by NHS)
You guessed it. Bonney and her team partnered with a local nursery, and over a period of days surrounding Arbor Day, held a fun adoption promotion where everyone who adopted was given a free tree from the nursery — all in honor of Arbor Day and all because of a nasty letter from someone who didn't believe in us. The media loved it, and to this day we still share that story.
As Saint Patrick's Day is nearly upon us, I share this to raise recognition for our animals. At Nevada Humane Society, we celebrate St. CATricks and St. DOGricks. We look to the end of the rainbow for our version of the pot of gold — perhaps a kitten or an adult cat. We tout that dogs are luckier than a four-leaf clover. We dress up our ginger-colored pets with green headbands and take photos of them for fun. We use every angle we can to encourage people to come meet our pets so that they can see what we already know — they are all incredible individuals and deserve to find love a second time with a new family.
Happy St. CATricks or St. DOGricks and be safe with your furry family. Need to add to the celebration? Visit us daily, as we're open at our shelter in Reno and Carson City seven days a week for pet adoptions, from 11 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. Follow the rainbow to us, because everyone will certainly reap the reward.

News Agencies | Updated on: 8 August 2018, 14:28 IST
PepsiCo's outgoing CEO Indra Nooyi and MasterCard's chief executive Ajay Banga were among a small group of top corporate leaders hosted by US President Donald Trump for a dinner at his private golf club in New Jersey to hear their perspective on the state of the country's economy.
The White House had said in a statement that the dinner is an "opportunity for the President to hear how the economy is doing from their perspective and what their priorities and thoughts are for the year ahead."
Nooyi and Banga were accompanied by their spouses Raj Nooyi and Ritu Banga, according to an updated list of attendees provided by the White House.
Among the 15 prominent business leaders attending the dinner hosted by President Trump on Tuesday were Fiat Chrysler CEO Michael Manley, FedEx president and CEO Fredrick Smith and Boeing's chief executive officer Dennis Muilenburg.
Donald Trump's wife Melania Trump, daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner also attended the dinner.
According to a White House pool report, President Trump referred to Nooyi as one of the "most powerful" women in the world.
Addressing the power dinner, Donald Trump said he is meeting with some of the top business leaders in the world.
"You talk about business, this is the group. And we're so honoured to have you. And we're gonna be discussing later on some of the ideas you may have to, as the expression goes, make America great again."
He added that the group had been "big beneficiaries" of his policies and "you've helped in many cases."
The pool report added that after touting GDP and jobs number, President Trump predicted economic growth next quarter "could be in the fives".
"I think we're gonna be very shortly in the fives," he said, and stated that the GDP "can go much higher once we get new trade deals."

L.A. Entrepreneur, Content Creator, and Actor Are Finalists in 'Sexiest Vegan' Contest
Californians Battle It Out to Take Home Top Honors From PETA—and a Tropical Vacation
Megan Wiltsie 202-483-7382
Los Angeles – PETA is preparing to crown this year's Sexiest Vegan Next Door—and three Los Angeles–area vegans are vying for the title. They beat out hundreds of other entrants from across the nation to advance to the final round of 10 male and 10 female contestants. Visitors to PETA.org can now help PETA select the two lucky winners—one man and one woman—who will each receive a free vacation for two to Maui, Hawaii, courtesy of Humane Travel.
Asher Brown (left) stopped eating meat as a child and later went vegan after he decided that he didn't want to cause suffering to any living being. His dog-friendly office is meat-free, and he's produced and directed almost 200 videos and commercials for vegan brands and nonprofits, reaching millions of viewers.
Natasha James (middle) owns and operates Rawcells, a delivery tricycle full of vegan treats such as "twinkies," "snickers," and doughnuts. Her goal is to show Los Angelenos how easy it is to go vegan—and she's scoring big among diners looking for something novel and sweet.
Meggan Anderson (right) is an actor and model who won't perform with exploited wild animals or wear animal skins—and in the 13 years since she went vegan, she's participated in dozens of PETA-led demonstrations, including several in which she has stripped down for the cause!
"Through attention-grabbing animal rights videos, innovative plant-based sweets, and provocative street demonstrations, these Los Angelenos are showing the world how exciting and delicious vegan living can be," says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. "Each one of the finalists in PETA's contest is a testament to how sexy vegans are—inside and out."
Voting for the finalists to help PETA determine whom it should select as the winners ends at 12 noon EDT on June 21. PETA will select the winners based on several factors, including vote count. See the full contest details here. Winners will be notified and announced on June 28.

This place is GREAT! Significantly one of the best service with probably the most stand-up guys. Nima is extremely honest to the point that he did not take his old prospects (from the earlier store) when he opened the new shop (I found out concerning the new shop randomly). They're trustworthy, extremely educated, friendly, and useful. They do not sell you something that you do not WANT and attempt to BS you. Give them a try, you will positively not be dissatisfied. Conventional manufacturing processes are primarily based on a push system, the company creates a forecast as to what can be required by the shopper, a guess based mostly on historical past and anticipated demand. This forecast is then used to schedule the production steps pushing product through the manufacturing facility. This usually results in the production of product that is currently not required by the shoppers, large batches of labor in progress, capacity unavailable for products which can be wanted by the customer right now and in the end large quantities of money held as work in progress and finished stocks.

Video poker is a combination of slots and Poker. Although the game uses the help of technology, it remains the original poker game in essence. The game is a man vs. machine battle. Here, the poker enthusiast is competing against the terminal instead of with other bettors. Interestingly though, the final goal remains the same.
A simple and agreeable game, video poker is very popular with individuals of any age. The number of video poker games in casinos has gotten bigger at a fast pace. The number of game choices has also grown remarkably. Multiple-game casinos even have a few electronic poker games on a single machine. These machines can accept around five individuals at a time. The amazing expansion of online electronic poker games gives the player endless alternatives. In fact, a number of people prefer gambling against machines instead of a real person. The massive upsurge of video poker games can be accounted to these elements.
When compared to slot machines, electronic poker is a little different. The player is required to hit the big hands to leave as a winner. 95 to 100% of the cash bet is returned to the bettor in almost all of the electronic poker games. Although, there is a five% likelihood of blowing the money, which can be catastrophic in quite a few cases. This is due to the fact that individuals are inclined not to gamble on just one hand.
A player can't count on all her winning chances to be converted into money. Apart from a proper comprehension of the game, one needs to create his/her own way to succeed. Even though it does not take very long to learn the game, selection of the proper machine is very important.
Video poker is as a rule played with a machine, which displays the user's cards on a screen. Connecting pieces of poker and one armed bandits, this variation poker is one of the scant games in the gambling den where you will in fact have a realistic chance of winning, as opposed to being at mercy of plain luck of slot machines or roulette.
The user places a wager and the video poker machine deals out five cards from a normal 52-card pack. The player then has one chance to maintain or throw away any number of unsuited cards, and is dealt the same number of replacement cards from the pack.
Following the new cards are allotted the winnings are determined centered on the 5-card poker hand. The cash payment depends on the set variation of game begin enjoyed.
The skill to gambling the game is knowing which cards to discard.
The goal being to the throw away cards in a way that gives you the greatest possible chance of profiting. The greatest plan will alter with the numerous payout tables. Analyze the pay out table prior to selecting your scheme, as quite a few games need a max bet for you to be inline for the top prize.

Can you spot Mina resting beneath the roof on the monster 230-foot 5.13d route Totally Free II? Photo by David Mason.
The science of training, nutrition, psychology and tactics has crept into climbing. Gone are the days when climbing performance was simple, there are a plethora of terms to grasp now: do you work on your aerobic capacity or your anaerobic power? Is your limiting factor your isometric finger strength or your mental game? What's this ketogenic diet about and can you really pull hard without a good dose of carbohydrates in your belly?
Increasingly we see evidence of a movement to analyze, to set goals, to construct plans and strategies. To perform at your top level you can't turn up unprepared; in today's climbing world that just wouldn't cut it.
So what does preparation look like? It comes in many forms from athletic competence to mental strength, from a well-timed "peak" to a balance between training and rest. These aforementioned skills are all grafted out in the weeks, months and years before a climb, but what can we do to get that extra 2% on the day?
Last month my vital last minute preparation came in the surprise form of strawberry flavor, pencil-shaped sweets.
Mina on Totally Free II. Photo by Keith Sharples.
Rewind a couple of days and you'd see me pumped out of my brains 226 feet up a 230-foot single pitch sport route. I'd been on the route for an hour and was seriously hitting a wall. The rope drag by that point was epic and I couldn't clip. I was on big holds trying to shake out and recover…the good aerobic capacity I thought I had cultivated decided not to show up to the party, or at least not to stay long. My legs were shaking—you know, the sewing machine dance. Only a couple of moves remained before I could mantle the crag and top out the iconic route of Totally Free II (8b/5.13d) that climbs the entire length of Malham Cove, (Yorkshire, U.K.) in one pitch.
But my body said no, not this time. I pushed on past the clip, elbows by my ears, one last-ditch effort before I was falling through the air.
Exhausted and depleted, I looked to analyze. What went wrong up there? How could I affect change in that situation? Something was missing from my strategy.
Mina's secret weapon: Strawberry pencil sweets.
Performance nutrition for me has always looked wholesome. It's been a frighteningly British middle-class journey of salmon and quinoa, kale and broccoli, single origin coffee, chia seeds, boiled eggs, avocados and homemade "healthy" snacks. My fridge is like a patchwork of health food adverts; the macros in my meals are planned and tailored to meet a specific demand.
But that day I had needed more than well-timed whole grains and oily fish could offer. I needed extra energy up there and I needed it fast. I was ready to try a new tactic.
Going to the sweets aisle in the supermarket felt like an exhilarating trip to the dark side: this was not my normal habitat. It was bright and sickeningly colorful, the options were endless. Fizzy, fruity, chewy; I was out of my comfort zone. The flavors were alien to me so I picked at random: strawberry pencil sweets (a distant British relative of the Twizzler). I read the ingredients list … all the bad sounding things. Perfectly luminous and flamboyant, I took them to the checkout.
Fast-forward a day and I was back at the crag, standing at the foot of Totally Free II. Looking up it seemed a long way to the top but this time I had extra ammunition. I checked my knot; chalked my hands, signaled to my belayer that I was safe and ready to climb. It was time.
To the casual observer, nothing had changed but I had a plan and it didn't involve additional fuelling on the ground, that wasn't enough last time. Oh no, this time I was taking my dark magic bullet up the route with me … I had strawberry pencil sweets tucked in my sports bra.
Whenever there was a rest I reached down and took out a sweet or two. The sugar stops became like a series of punctuation marks, moments of weird juxtaposition between guzzling junk food and engaging with my physicality and the rock. I'll admit I had a few giggles at the absurdity of what I was doing; this was the most novel use the upholstery of my upper half had ever offered.

To cut a long redpoint story short, I snacked my way up the 230-foot route. I didn't hit a wall. I didn't get the shakes. Of course, this anecdote, my observational study with a single participant, does not signal cause and effect. My beloved strawberry pencil pick-me-ups may have had nothing to do with the outcome but I like to think they played a role, and they're likely to find their way onto my shopping list again.
Smiling, I topped out, untied and dropped my rope to walk back down the crag, albeit with a bit of a stomachache.
Love this! Thanks, Mina. Sometimes you gotta do the counter-intuitive thing, right? What made you think of going to the sweet aisle?
Hi Julia! I'm not 100% sure actually….I am studying Nutrition at the moment and I think I was reading a paper on glucose absorption rates and carbohydrate use for athletes when the idea popped into my head. I have never really gone down the route of energy gels/shots before and I guess this was my cheaper (and more transportable) version of trying that out!

U.S. Rep. Scott Tipton on Sunday joined other Colorado Republicans in condemning the vulgar and sexist comments of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump in a 2005 video exposed by the Washington Post on Friday, but the Cortez congressman stopped short of pulling his support for Trump.
"I find Trump's comments shocking and appalling. It's unacceptable and he must directly and sincerely apologize to all women," Tipton said in a prepared statement, according to Ernest Luning of the The Colorado Statesman. "That said, this is the reality: It is too late to replace anyone on the ballot and we have two flawed candidates for president.
Republican U.S. Senate candidate Darryl Glenn, incumbent GOP U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner and Republican U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman over the weekend all called on Trump to pull out of the race for the good of the party.
"Sexual harassment is a serious issue in this country," Schwartz said in the release. "To have the Republican nominee for President engaged in such dehumanizing behavior toward women is reprehensible. I hope that all of us can come together to reject Trump's candidacy outright. Decent, hardworking Coloradans deserve so much more from our elected representatives, and they deserve to know why Scott Tipton still supports Trump.
One sign the race for the sprawling Western Slope and southern Front Range congressional district has tightened in recent weeks is the aggressive way both campaigns have attacked each other for what they deem misleading ads — in Schwartz's case on public lands and in Tipton's case on coal-mining jobs and renewable energy policies.

Wonderful original hand-cut paper cut by Louise Firchau - a.k.a. Paper Panda.
The piece is hand-cut in black and suspended over original pages, in a wood box frame. The piece measures approx 38.5cm wide x 48.5cm high.
These pieces are repeated, but each one is hand-cut and the pages underneath vary, making each unique. (so please note they may vary from the examples shown here).
This piece can also be purchased using Own Art - payment by 10 interest free instalments of £149.50 per month - contact the gallery for an online application form link and full details.
Please note: This piece is currently part of a Paper Panda solo show at Obsidian and will be posted out on 2nd December.
See more work currently available from Louise Firchau.
Paper Panda started in 2010 with Louise Firchau making typographical lyrical papercuts from recycled paper.
Since then PP has grown significantly and now has three very distinct styles and a multitude of merchandise so that everyone can have a piece of the original bear.
The Bird & Bunny and folk series of papercuts have been hand drawn and hand cut by Louise. They are inspired by Quarwood, where the Panda family lived in a little cottage in the Cotswolds surrounded by animals and woodland life.
The Storybook series (and other gothic darkness) is a cute collaboration between Mr & Mrs Panda. Louise tells Ryan what to draw with a waggy, pointy finger over his shoulder and only when he gets it perfectly right she cuts it out of paper. It's a good bit of teamwork.
The typographical pieces are created using digital software. Louise studied typography at university and it became an obsession. "There is nothing more satisfying than creating a piece of graphic art using amazing fonts and hand cutting it so perfectly that no matter what the size it looks like it's been printed."

Industry insider news for New Zealand's technology resellers
An alternative to employing someone fulltime is to consider the increasing number of university and tertiary programmes looking to place students in work experience. The University of Canterbury's MBA programme has an applied project component where students complete a five-month, real world business project as a degree requirement. Last year Christchurch-based Hindin Communications took on MBA student Greg Jack to conduct formal market research for its Knowledgebase customer service software product. CEO David Johnstone was delighted with the results although he stresses it wasn't a charitable cause."We feel we got extraordinary value for money. Greg is a highly skilled, professional business consultant and what we paid for the entire project is a fraction of what it would have cost to hire an outside service company," he says. By the end of the project Hindin had a strategic plan identifying growth options for the company. Johnstone says there are many advantages to working with students and aligning with a university."Hindin has received tremendous human resource benefits from its participation in this programme as well as the relationship with the Computer Science department. Networking with the university is an integral part of our human relations strategy and helps us get the message out that working at a smaller company like Hindin allows graduates to take on greater responsibility sooner."It's the not the first time Hindin has taken on students. Matt Smith started with the company as a part-timer while studying for his computer science degree, now he's in charge of Knowledgebase product development. Another student, now employed full time, has developed a new software module for the Ministry of Education that is now being implemented. The only requirement of the programme is that the project has to address a business problem, so don't ask for an engineer to design a new widget, ask for a strategist to determine if widget design is where you should be allocating resources. Venkat Pulakanam, MBA programme director at the University of Canterbury, says the project provides students with a real world opportunity to demonstrate what they've studied."By the time they go out into real companies they've learned a tremendous amount about business and management and they have to show us they've used those skills to benefit their sponsors," he says. Pulakanam says the school has a limited number of students available to send into the workforce but wishes more organisations took advantage of the programme."Companies should look at the University as a pool of resources. We're set up to help with long-term business needs, one-off research projects or undergraduate staff for the busy season," he says.

Q: Adding hashbang to URL if not already present Problem
I've got my site up and running using #! URLs and PathJS working nicely. It works fine when someone is linked to a URL that already contains the proper URL structure that contains the hashbang.
The only issue I'm having is when a user visits a page without the hashbang in the URL, it needs to append the hashbang then either reload the page, or hopefully trigger PathJS to detect the proper URL structure and do what I've told it to.
Example
Visiting http://twitter.com/google will intercept that URL, change it to http://twitter.com/#!/google and then load in the appropriate content.

A: You can define a root route with:
Path.root("#!/hello");

When a user comes to the page without any hashes, PathJS will default to the root route.
