Description current kernel has no xen support.
old 2.6.18 kernel is not compatible with some of our scripts.
Please consider to build two DomU-Kernels. One with PAE (Physical Address Extension) enabled and one with PAE disabled. There are some processors out that can't suffer this feature (e.g. some Intel Pentium M models, some non Intel or AMD processors). To build a non-PAE DomU Kernel set the Kernel parameter "Processor types and features -> High memory support" (CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G) to "4GB", or "off".
To run a non-PAE DomU on top of XEN you need to assure that XEN and of course the Dom0 are all compiled the same (non-PAE) way. Otherwise the DomU won't start or the XEN hypervisor or the Dom0 would crash.
- To disable PAE support of XEN. Edit Config.mk and change the following parameter to "XEN_TARGET_X86_PAE = n". Of course, that could differ to your used distribution kernel.
If you'll get any XEN-related issues feel free to contact me.
- If possible move to 2.6.25 kernel. This release does contain a lot more xen-related patches.
- Which kernel sources from the, I think CentOS distribution do you plan to use? The vanilla 2.6.25 kernel doesn't support the integration of pciback/pcifront, as it havn't been integrated in this release, yet. Pherhaps the distribution you plan to use does have some pciback/pcifront support. Otherwise it wouldn't be possible to passthrough pci-devices from the Dom0 to the Endian DomU.
I would agree that we need XEN support for EFW (including versions with & without PAE), I don't believe that XEN support should be removed from EFW as is mentioned in the KVM request in the link above (unless I've misunderstood it?).
So, I'll add my request that XEN kernel support is provided at the earliest opportunity for EFW.
The non-PAE support has been dropped from the xen package.
My intention was not to remove the xen-support. Rather to push the KVM incorporation. And as KVM could be more easily integrated i thought if the endian team does favor only one virtualizer then it should be KVM.
I'd rather one method of virtualisation wasn't favoured over another. I currently use the XEN kernel from neobiker as I'm not into building kernel versions. The simple answer for me is that if XEN isn't provided I won't be changing our infrastructure to use KVM it'll just mean I drop EFW and find another solution.

Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price yesterday declared a public health emergency in Florida due to Hurricane Irma, and waived or modified certain Medicare, Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program requirements to ensure sufficient health care items and services are available. The Department of Health and Human Services' Office for Civil Rights also has granted a limited waiver of Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act sanctions and penalties for hospitals in portions of Florida, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands in response to Hurricane Irma. The National Hurricane Center expects Irma to make landfall in Florida on Sunday. Some potentially impacted hospitals have started to evacuate patients and reduce clinical functions.


NOTE: This summary contains important information regarding disputes over selectable switches and upcoming deadlines.
The meeting was presided over by Chair, Terry Appenzeller and Staff member Scott Potter.
The FCC's Second Report and Order confirms the Ohio (and Ameritech Region's) switch selection methodology. We will proceed with the implementation of LNP on a by requested switch basis within the seven affected MSAs.
Mr. Appenzeller informed us that the FCC is still targeting an early June date for the release of its order on LNP cost recovery issues.
The NANC LNPA Working Group has submitted its recommendation document to the NANC. The document recommends seven NPAC regions (similar to the seven RBOC regions). Lockheed-Martin or Perot Systems have been chosen as the NPAC in each region. The Ameritech region was a model for much of what is represented in the final recommendations.
Mr. Potter informed the workshop that the PUCO staff had developed a corrected Switch List which was submitted to all NECs in March. 5 new entrants had submitted switch requests by the extended deadline of April 25.
Staff returned the switch lists to the affected ILECs that were present. Staff will make available an aggregate list of all selected switches to any party of interest upon request to Mr. Potter.
New entrants certification (or request for certification) and territory maps that Ohio requires as part of a certification request.
Mr. Potter informed the workshop that there were several NECs that submitted lists of switches which they believed should have been on the switch list but were not. Even after considerable Staff analysis and efforts to educate the NECs on what counties were in the MSAs several disputes remain. Mr. Potter listed the counties that are in the seven MSAs and discussed the U.S. Census Bureau document that Staff requested from the FCC to verify the MSAs. In light of the FCC requirement that ILECs know what switches have been requested for LNP conversion, at least, nine months in advance of the MSA deadline staff proposed and the workshop agreed to the following process for dealing with disputed switches.
Switch lists must include: (a) exchange or English name, (b) the CLLI code, if known, (c) the county in which the switch is located, and (d) the LEC that owns the switch.
Any switches verified to be in the MSA, but omitted from the ILECs submitted switch list will be an LNP selected switch by default.
Within the seven Top 100 MSAs in Ohio, carrier may request a switch conversion to LNP through a BFR process anytime after the deadline for the MSA expires. No BFRs for additional switch conversions (beyond those on the submitted Pick Lists and any dispute additions) need to be entertained by the ILEC until after the MSA deadline has passed.
Outside of the seven Top 100 MSAs, a carrier may request a switch conversion to LNP through the BFR process anytime after 12/31/98.
Barry Bishop updated us on the status of the regional operations committee. He provided the workshop attendants with a very helpful LNP primer. The primer was a handout that is intended to give ILECs beginning the process of LNP to basic road map of where and how to proceed.
Barry also suggested that now that Ohio has a basic implementation plan, it was time to begin to have meetings regarding the actual nuts and bolts of rolling out LNP. To that end, it was agreed that future LNP meetings would be geared toward working out the network/operations details of implementing LNP. We scheduled the first implementation meeting for June 16 at the Commission offices. This will be an all day meeting for the actual network/operations people of each company to begin work. Mr. Potter suggested that he might ask the Commission to stress attendance by all affected ILECs and all NECs.
Roger Marshall updated the workshop on the status of the LLC and the written agreement. Still only six companies have joined the LLC (Ameritech, AT&T, TCG, MCI, Sprint, and LDDS/Worldcom). The original agreement written only for Illinois has now been modified to represent a regional LLC. The LLC will be the organization responsible for detailing how Lockheed-Martin (this regions NPAC) will operate in the region. Only members of the LLC will have any official word or control in the managing the NPAC. The agreement is complete such that the LLC is now seeking the avenues it must travel to get approval (if such is necessary) from the individual state commissions.
Mr. Potter informed the workshop that the Commission is concerned with the poor regional participation by the Ohio specific companies. He suggested that the Commission would likely review the LLC agreement informally and perhaps send out a letter to all carriers informing them once again that this is the LLC agreement that would directly affect them and how they deal with LNP and perhaps offering a final opportunity to comment or participate in the workshop.
Mr. Potter suggested that it was likely that soon the Commission would have a formal process to approve of the LNP implementation that was designed in the workshop (as order by 95-845-TP-COI).

How New Hispanic Churches Experience More Growth With Less Money
⇑ back to "Church Growth"
5:00PM EDT 7/30/2019	 Aaron Earls/Lifeway Christian Resources
Hispanic church plants are flourishing, and with fewer resources. (Govinda Valbuena/Pixabay.com)
New Hispanic church works in the U.S. see similar patterns of attendance growth and conversions as other church plants despite having a fraction of the financial support and training, as well as facing additional complications from the immigration status of members and leaders.
"Evangelical groups who are starting new churches are starting Hispanic churches," said Scott McConnell, executive director of LifeWay Research.
The Nashville-based research firm surveyed leaders from more than 200 new Hispanic church works from 14 Protestant denominations and discovered most of the pastors and members were born outside of the U.S.
Among the lead pastors of these churches, 94% are Hispanic and 80% are first-generation immigrants. Around 1 in 12 (8%) say they were born in the U.S., but one or both of their parents were born elsewhere, and 12% say both they and their parents were born in the U.S.
One in 4 pastors (25%) say some of their church leaders have undocumented status. Around 2 in 3 (64%) say none of their church leaders have undocumented status and 11% prefer not to answer.
Within the churches, pastors estimate 89% of their congregation is Hispanic or Latino. Two-thirds (66%) were born outside of the U.S., while 22% are second-generation immigrants and 12% are third generation.
Pastors say most of their congregation are citizens with permanent legal status (68%), while they estimate 21% of those in their church have undocumented status and 11% have temporary legal status.
Two-thirds of new Hispanic church works (64%) conduct their services completely in Spanish. And three-fourths (73%) say they have no plans to change the language(s) used in their church.
The new Hispanic work congregations are, in large part, middle aged, with 40% being 30 to 49 years old. Around 1 in 5 (21%) in the church are under 18, 16% are 18 to 29, and 23% are 50 and older.
"While most of the leaders of these churches are first-generation immigrants themselves," said McConnell, "most have been in the area their church serves for 10 years or more."
Similar Growth with Fewer Resources
As with most other church plants, new Hispanic church works see exponential growth during the first few years. The average attendance in the church's first year is 31. That climbs to 42 by the second year, 53 in year three, 69 in the fourth year and 81 after the fifth.
While those numbers are smaller than other church plants, they have similar growth trajectories. A similar 2015 LifeWay Research study of 843 Protestant church plants found the average new church began with 51 people in weekly worship attendance and grew to 146 by the fifth year.
The same is true for the number of conversions. In the first year, Hispanic church leaders say their church saw 10 first-time commitments to Jesus. That climbed to 13 in the second year and 15 in years three and four.
Among all church plants in the 2015 study, an average church saw 11 conversions in the first year, 14 in the second, 18 in the third and 17 in year four.
Similarly to all church plants, around 4 in 10 attendees in new Hispanic works are completely unchurched or have been for many years. However, Hispanic churches are reaching a higher percentage of those who are completely unchurched (26% to 18%).
"Though new Hispanic church works start out smaller, they are more evangelistically effective per person," said McConnell.
In order to start their church, 60% of pastors of new Hispanic works say they received funding from their denomination, compared to 72% of all church plants.
Fewer Hispanic church starts say they receive funding from a sponsoring congregation (45% to 56%).
In total, Hispanic new church work pastors say they receive an average of less than $13,000 in their first year from outside sources, which drops to less than $8,000 in the fifth year.
Hispanic Pentecostal Attraction
Hispanic Influence on Church Called a 'Two-Way Street'
By comparison, overall, church plants average more than $43,000 of outside funding in their first year. Even by their fifth year, the average church plant receives more money from others ($15,409) than the new Hispanic work receives its first year.
Similarly, new Hispanic churches receive, on average, $13,617 from church members and attendees in their first year. That climbs to $33,782 by year four, which is less than what the average church plant collects from attendees in their first year ($46,191).
Fewer than a third of Hispanic church plants have received church starting training that specifically incorporates the dynamics of a Hispanic/Latino context.
"Raising funds from individual donors may include cross-cultural challenges," McConnell said. "But there is no valid justification for the funding inequities Hispanic church starts experience especially at the denominational level."
Among the 61% of Hispanic church starts with a sponsoring church, however, they are more likely than all church plants with a sponsoring church to say they received support like using a church building, having the sponsoring church's pastor preach occasionally, helping with administrative needs, and providing training.
Pastors of new Hispanic works are less likely to receive training from their denomination and less likely to have advanced schooling.
Among church planters overall, 42% have a graduate degree, while 6% have a high school diploma at most. For pastors at new Hispanic works, 24% have a graduate degree and 19% have a high school diploma or less.
New Hispanic work pastors may have less education, but they tend to have more life experience.
The average age of a new Hispanic work pastor is 49 years old, while more than a third (37%) are under 45. Among church planters overall, 62% planted before age 45, including 31% who planted under age 35.
"So far the development of young Hispanic church starters is lagging far behind that of other ethnicities. And it is not due to a lack of young people in church," McConnell said.
Evangelism and Prayer
New Hispanic work pastors overcame many of the resource deficits by placing a stronger emphasis on evangelism and prayer.
Two-thirds of Hispanic work pastors (67%) say they have continued to use evangelistic visitation for identifying church prospects after the launch of the church, while only 32% of church plants overall do the same.
Half of Hispanic new works (52%) continue to use door-to-door evangelism compared to 22% of church plants overall.
Since the beginning of the church, 79% of new Hispanic works provide evangelistic training for church members, while 50% of church plants overall do the same.
Hispanic works also are more likely to say they have an intentional weekly prayer meeting for members (78% to 53%).
"The effectiveness of Hispanic new church work evangelism," McConnell said, "is directly tied to these churches doing more outreach."

Anyone Ever Hear of Sedgwick Circle?
Living in Bloomingdale, I always hear of "Truxton Circle" on North Capitol and Florida Ave that was demolished, and longed for its return. Looking at the old pictures of the park and fountain makes one wonder why it was sacrificed instead of saved like Dupont and others. I was unaware of how many other circles were in DC and were demolished over the years. I ran across a circle in Bloomingdale on an 1887 map of DC that I had never heard of. It was at Rhode Island Ave NW, U Street NW, and North Capitol Street It was called Sedgwick Circle and Rhode Island Ave actually ended there and did not continue on into North East.
In the zoomed in image you can see Lincoln Ave (now Lincoln Road), Ledroit Park, Glenwood and Prospect Hill Cemeteries, Boundary Street (now Florida Ave) etc.

Palliative Care (blended)
This professional master's degree offers university graduates the possibility of completing and improving their studies in the field of palliative care, furthering the integrality of the human being at the end of their life and always aiming at being objective. The training is oriented towards developing competencies which enable the professionals to address issues related to caring for people who are terminally ill and their families, from a complex and multidimensional approach which integrates biological, psychological, emotional and sociocultural features.
Physiotherapy with focus on Orthopedics and Traumatology
The Master in Physiotherapy with focus on Orthopedics and Traumatology of the Catholic University aims to specialize the professionals in Physiotherapy in one of the medical specialties in highest demand in the health system, Orthopedics and Traumatology, in order to improve the quality of the medical attention in the country, form a point of view which is present in universities at international level and of great importance for organizations around the world.
The aim of the program is to enhance the rehabilitation in Physiotherapy, to advance in the updating of content, the theoretical integration, scientific evidence, and a special emphasis on the design of proposals which generate applied knowledge and practical enhancements based on scientific evidence. In this way, we are contributing towards the prevention of the main health issues of the population and the improvement of the efficiency of the participation through the social and health system.
Major changes in the area of health in Uruguay require professionals who have responsibilities in health organization management, or who aspire to have those responsibilities, to deepen their knowledge and administrative and management skills to be more effective in their daily work and to provide quality services.
Administration, jointly with health sciences and knowledge of the field of health, provide structure and methodology to organize resources and processes which guide management in achieving objectives and goals that improve the quality and efficiency of institutions.
This postgraduate course specializes in health management, bringing together different but related logics: the structure and methods of administrative thinking, the social application of health care, and the leadership needed today.
In addition to addressing typical topics of this specialization, the program is different from other proposals in various aspects related to occupational health integration, with a focus on working conditions and environment, and on healthy organizational factors, focusing on occupation and the working environment. Another aspect is the integration of risk, which allows us to assess the importance of risk for the allocation of resources and to identify those areas of greater incidence on service management, either for welfare or economic impact. It emphasizes the prevention of risks linked to patient safety, which highlights quality management, ethical-legal components, and the media and their implications, both in technical and operational aspects as in research.
Specialization contributes to building a strong critical mass in Uruguay's health management. One of its pillars is research as an evidence-based learning tool, and it has an impact on the daily operation and decision-making process in health policies.
Specialization in Adult Intensive Care
Intensive therapy provides assistance to patients with pathophysiological alterations that are in a critical state and vital risk, but still may recover.
Care of the critically ill patient requires facing situations of vital crisis in a complex environment, with diagnostic and therapeutic technology in constant evolution. This is one of the areas of health care that has developed most rapidly in recent decades.
This training proposal, which is presented as a Postgraduate Specialization in Nursing in Adult Intensive Care, focuses on helping nursing professionals to develop their knowledge and skills to address such complex care, with suitable training for the type of service, security, and humanization. We follow the line of researchers that promote deepening the understanding of intensive care as an environment of professional complexity for nursing professionals.
This course, which belongs to the Institute of Welfare and Health, focuses on training specialists in diabetology for their work in the different diabetes services units in the health system. It aims to deepen the knowledge of the disease's physiopathological and clinical bases to develop better skills in the different levels of care.
The emphasis is placed on educational-preventive approaches in order to train specialists in primary care strategies according to current health policy.
The program develops knowledge in diverse areas, both in the specialized field as well as in other areas that will provide support for the integral care of patients. Diabetes totally and intimately affects how an organism functions, so its management requires a broad knowledge of general medicine and, in complicated varieties, teamwork with other specialists and health professionals.
The Diabetology and Nutrition Society of Uruguay (SDNU) has highlighted the relevance of this program given the increase in people affected by this pathology, a situation that, without prevention and control programs with the necessary training of human resources, will have a negative impact on the health economy and undoubtedly on people's quality of life.
Degree awarded: Specialist in Diabetology (recognized by the MEC)
Breastfeeding Guidance
Global and national health authorities promote breastfeeding and the timely and correct incorporation of complementary foods as one of the main strategies to reduce infant mortality and to improve general quality of life in society.
The nutrition of children under two years of age is of great interest, not only regarding the child's immediate well-being, but also because this formative stage of life has a substantial and persistent impact on a child's physical and mental development, as well as on the health state in adult life. Physical and mental development, in turn, determine people's opportunities in the course of life, affecting their school performance and subsequent productivity.

Josh Bloom
I am a native New Yorker who attended Bronx Science (grad 1971), then got a BS in chemistry from Alfred University in 1975 (Cum laude) with a major in chemistry and a minor in piano. I then attended the University of Virginia, where I worked from professor Richard Sundberg on indole alkaloid synthesis. I got my Ph. D. in 1980 and then did a two-year post-doc with professor Amos B. Smith III. In 1982 I began working for Lederle Laboratories, a division of American Cyanamid Co. American Cyanamid was acquired by American Home Products (later Wyeth). I worked as a medicinal chemist for 27 years in a variety of therapeutic areas, including lipid disorders, diabetes, antibacterials, antivirals and oncology. After Wyeth was acquired by Pfizer in 2010 all of the chemists were let go and I am now working with the American Council of Science and Health in New York.

William W. Ward
Brighter Ideas, Inc
My name is Bill Ward. I am the president of Brighter Ideas, Inc., a biotech start-up company we spun off from Rutgers University in 2003. I don't want to focus on the company or on my 33 years as a Rutgers University professor. I want to focus on who I am and what makes me tick. Perhaps, by hearing my story, you can develop more insight about who you are and where you want to go in life. For as long as I can remember, I have been an overachiever—the classic obsessive, compulsive, workaholic. I put in at least thirty 48-hour days in graduate school—in a cold room under red lights. One time I finished up marathon research just in time to lead my intramural softball team to victory with two home runs and a diving catch in the outfield. I have always wanted to be the best. But, I am slowly weaning myself from this compulsion. And, in retrospect, I believe I have always been an entrepreneur. In grade school and high school, I was the guy who brought into class unbelievably complex, extra credit projects—from intricate flour and salt relief maps to working miniature models of every ancient weapon pictured in the Latin II text book. Even though I forgot everything Latin over the summer, I got an A in the second year—probably because of my craftsmanship. In a college humanities class, I volunteered to draw a detailed sketch of the Acropolis for my professor to place on a quiz (no Xerox machines back then). I spent so much time drawing the Acropolis that I failed to study what I was drawing. I got 80% on the quiz.
As far back as I can remember, I have been interested in science, not for the usual reasons, but for the aesthetics of science. In 9th grade, the Kuder Preference test results came back Scientific/Artistic. Again, in retrospect, I realize that everything I have done in life has had a significant artistic element. My biology drawings were always the best in the class and I thought of going into medical art at one point. I still hand draw graphs on Xeroxed copies of the few remaining sheets of graph paper I can find. Not once have I used a computer to draw anything. It is too much fun to do it manually. My choice to work in the field of Bioluminescence was probably driven by aesthetics and I never tire of seeing GFP fluoresce. Having had no musical training, now, at age 68, I am now taking voice lessons from an opera singer. I dream of doing solo concerts at night clubs and resort hotels—my kind of music—John Denver, Neil Diamond, Roger Whittaker, and romantic Broadway ballads. I write satires and I have turned real jellyfish into works of art. So, what is my message? Follow your dreams and have fun. If you are not having fun, you are in the wrong field doing the wrong things.

Q: What's a good way to "weight" the importance of item/user features in LightFM? I have been using LightFM in an e-commerce application with a decent amount success. Thanks for this really cool package!
I'm in the process of optimizing the recommendation outputs. Because of specific business domain considerations, certain features are "more important" and have less leeway in terms of variability than others, like "price" (i.e. certain recommended items need to be in a soft price range).
Is there also a way for LightFM to weight this feature MORE than the others?.
Thanks in advance!

Q: Elasticsearch - get docs with array field size greater than 1 I want to get all docs with a field, which is an array, with size greater than 1.
I'm using the following command:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -XGET '127.0.0.1:9200/poly/_search?pretty' -d '
{ "query": { "bool": { "filter": { "script" : { "script" : "doc['emoji'].length > 1" } } } } }
'

but I get the following error:

  },

Nevertheless, the field "emoji" exists in my ElasticSearch docs, as you can see in the result to the following command:

            }
         }
      }
   }
}
'

Here is the result for the previous command:

Can someone tell me why I'm getting that error above?

A: You need to skip characters in your command check command below:
Script:
"script": {"script": "doc['\''emoji'\''].length > 1"

Command:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -XGET '127.0.0.1:9200/poly/_search?pretty' -d '{  "query": {"bool": {"filter": {"script": {"script": "doc['\''emoji'\''].length > 1"}}}}}'


Bethany Christian Trust helps vulnerable people across Scotland.
The charity offers emergency and resettlement accommodation, furniture, supported housing, community education, specialist units, community integration and street work.
The funding from Crerar Trust will be used towards the Bethany Homemaker, a social furniture project – providing essential household items to low income families and those who have recently been homeless.
Bethany Christian Trust was established in Edinburgh 32 years ago with the aim of relieving the suffering and meeting the long term needs of homeless and vulnerable people. They now operate across Scotland and help over 7,000 people each year to find, equip, and maintain a home, overcome addictions and tackle social and educational barriers.
Details of project works, for which you are seeking a grant.
The support from Crerar Trust will be used as a specific fund to provide household items to previously homeless and low income individuals and families who need assistance to establish and sustain a tenancy. As well as the immediate provision of goods that help turn a house into a home, in helping us to provide furnishing for these families and individuals the grant will help prevent them from entering a cycle of debt which many would struggle to get out of for several years.


There was an interesting article in the last edition of Compass, stating how a claimant can enforce a lien against a yacht owner and collect on a claim by obtaining a court order empowering the U.S. Marshal to seize the yacht.
The article did not explain that the warrant of arrest need not require that any notice be given to the yacht owner prior to seizing the yacht. Such arrests, which require that the owner hand over immediate possession of the yacht to the U.S. Marshal or a designated (and expensive) custodian, are often used to pressure a yacht owner into a settlement of a claim, which might otherwise be negotiated more equitably.
Upon perceiving a specific threat, a vessel owner may be able to protect his vessel from being arrested by filing a complaint in the U.S. District Court where the vessel lies, or where the threatened arrest would take place, and posting a bond in that court in the full amount of the claim plus 12 percent. The complaint would refer to the threatened arrest as a "cloud" on the title of the vessel. The bond would stand as security for the claim, and the court then should refuse to order the arrest of the vessel.
While the procedure may strike a vessel owner as needlessly expensive, it may be cost effective in cases where the yacht is about to be engaged in a cruise or other activity and an arrest on a questionable claim is threatened.
The complaint should be filed in the U.S. District Court under Supplemental Admiralty Rule D and the relevant local U.S. District Court Rules, and with reference to 46 USC Sec. 31343(c)(2). Although the statute refers to a U.S. documented vessel, this filing was effective in a case where the vessel was foreign flagged.

Pointe-aux-Pins Acres agriculture centre
Pointe-aux-Pins Acres represents a vital link to the importance of agriculture in our community. The vision for 'The Pointe' agriculture centre represents a deeply rooted sense of community, informed through collaborative discussions.
With current market uncertainty, Strathcona County must responsibly take note of the building market. There are significant supply chain challenges, a backlog of capital building demands on a local, provincial and national level, and tenders that were beyond the available budget.
Next steps include:
Administration proceeding with a Progressive Design-Build delivery method for construction projects for the indoor arena and animal housing facility. Progressive Design-Build brings the design and construction team together at the beginning, allowing greater efficiency and providing more certainty of the cost to build.
Construction of site utilities, roadways and parking, to support the building.
The Progressive Design-Build tender for the Pointe-aux-Pins Acres' arena building will close by the end of January. The bid is structured to encourage 'market creativity' that enables bidders to explore all options (not tied to previous public renditions). This tender will incorporate Council's direction to include a concrete arena floor and building space to accommodate animal housing (as per Council motion, October 25, 2022).
Administration will provide an update to Council in February 2023 regarding the procurement process.
Meanwhile, Strathcona County continues its work on the site infrastructure, incorporating the valuable learnings and design work the County has invested in over the past several years.
Year-round agricultural and community activities
Residents and visitors will meet at Pointe-aux-Pins Acres (The Pointe) for community agricultural activities and events.
Residents will also gather at The Pointe for non-traditional agricultural activities and demonstration events such as vintage tractor pulls.
It will be designed for year-round, all-weather use. Amenities will include an indoor arena and animal housing.
The main building will be approximately 100,000 square feet, including the animal housing component
Spaces all residents can enjoy
Safety-focus for humans and animals throughout the site.
Opportunity for interaction with agriculture and the community.
Functional support for events, with separate entrances for exhibitors and attendees
Divisible multi-function room for meetings, educational opportunities, or to act as a support space during events
WiFi and A/V integration throughout the building, as well as a state-of-the-art lighting control system to promote energy efficiency
About the name - Pointe-aux-Pins Acres (The Pointe)
The name Pointe-aux-Pins Acres anchors the new amenity in community heritage. The Pointe is a destination where residents from across Strathcona County can enjoy agricultural and community events.
The County considers the history of our community and points of interest in the local area or region when considering new facility names.
Pointe-aux-Pins Creek is a significant water feature on Strathcona County's landscape. One of only a few place names in the County known to have a French origin, the name translates literally as "pointed at the pines." The creek flows into the North Saskatchewan River from the southeast—from the higher elevations in the Beaver Hills. In the late 1800s, Pointe-aux-Pins Creek was the last of four creek crossings for travellers making the 21-mile journey by land from Strathcona, at the north end of the Canadian and Edmonton railway line known as the "end of steel", to Fort Saskatchewan.
A place to show the past, present and future of agriculture
Pointe-aux-Pins Acres will be a community space where agriculture heritage and rural roots are preserved.
It will complement Bremner Heritage Site, including Bremner House, a 5,400 square-foot home built by Charles Bremner in 1912 or 1913. Strathcona County Council purchased Bremner House in 2004 to preserve a piece of the community's heritage for future generations.
Opportunities to see, learn, and get involved could include agri-educational opportunities.
Close to Sherwood Park, Edmonton and Fort Saskatchewan, Pointe-aux-Pins Acres is located on a 230-acre parcel of land surrounding the Bremner Heritage Site on Range Road 225 north of Township Road 534, approximately 15 minutes northeast of Sherwood Park.
It will be easy to access from all directions - just off Highway 16, and close to major transportation routes including the Anthony Henday and Highway 21.
Bicycle racks to make it a destination for cyclists as well
Accessible parking and drop-off area
From the beginning, the vision for a multi-purpose agricultural facility was driven by the expressed need for agricultural recreation space in the community. Every step of the way, the project was built on sound decisions, research, planning and engagement. The design process on large infrastructure projects includes refinements at every stage, from concept development and throughout schematic design. Throughout this process, Strathcona County has confirmed direction with Council and the community to ensure the facility supports community needs.
Pointe-aux-Pins Acres project timeline
October 25, 2022: Council directed administration to include a concrete arena floor and building space to accommodate animal housing.
July 19, 2022: Council approved a new direction forward, which involves splitting the project into 'now' and 'future' phases.
May 18, 2022 media release: Council directs administration to reduce scope and budget, with final budget consideration coming back to Council by Fall, 2022.
September 15, 2021 media release: County continues operational planning for the Pointe, while construction is temporarily paused.
On January 19, 2021, Council accepted the name for the site of the multi-purpose agricultural facility. The name Pointe-aux-Pins Acres, or The Pointe, anchors the new amenity in community heritage and highlights a destination where residents from across Strathcona County can enjoy agricultural and non-agricultural events, community, business conferences and social events.
With its strategic ties to the County's Agriculture Master Plan, the Pointe will be defined as a destination where people from across the county (and beyond) can enjoy agricultural and non-agricultural education and history, community and social events. The Pointe amplifies strong connections to the County's Recreation and Culture Strategy's focus on meeting community needs, environmental stewardship, inclusion and building overall capacity.
On September 29, 2020, Strathcona County Council approved the funding for a regional multi-purpose agricultural facility. The total funding approved by Council for design and construction is $71.2 million which includes rural site preparation and servicing as well as building and amenities.
On September 15, 2020, an economic impact report was presented to Council. The report projects the facility will contribute over $33 million to the local economy and generate 290 jobs over the first five years of operation.

Leadership Charlotte 2021 applications being accepted starting this week
By TERI ASHLEY
Yes, the Leadership Charlotte program continues as we all handle the seemingly daily news updates and life changes. Quite honestly, there doesn't seem to be a time when the camaraderie and growth of community leaders could be needed more than now.
The current group, the Leadership Charlotte Class of 2020 (LC 2020,) is about to begin wrapping up their rescheduled sessions. Instead of the usual early June date, their graduation is scheduled for September 18. We will then introduce the new class, LC 2021, at a reception less than a week later on September 24 before they head off to SimSoc, sessions, and projects.
The application for LC 2021 will be posted on our website, probably today, at charlottecountychamber.org. We will also email it to anyone who is considering the opportunity to join this elite group, and to a few businesses we feel would benefit from having a staff member apply.
To personally request an application, call us at our Port Charlotte office, 941-627-2222, or email me at tashley@charlottecountychamber.org.
Oops, please accept my heartfelt apology for getting ahead of myself. For those of you new to Leadership Charlotte and its accompanying jargon, I will explain.
Leadership Charlotte is the signature program of the Charlotte County Chamber of Commerce. For more than 30 years the program has annually assembled approximately 25 individuals who wish to increase their leadership skills and gain a better understanding of the opportunities and challenges in our community. The selected participants in Leadership Charlotte commit to attend monthly day-long sessions, as well as participate in whatever class project they select.
A mistake that some applicants make from the get-go is taking the application itself too lightly. The competition is intense. The application process - which is anonymous - is not the time to assume everyone knows who you are, what you do, and what you have done. And for goodness' sake, follow the instructions. Yes, we're talking about professional adults here, but it's not appropriate to write "see attached resume" instead of completing the application and answering the specific essay-style questions. When that happens, and it does, the offending application will automatically be deposited directly into the big round file on the floor.
This application is also not the place to be modest. As a mentor told me when I first started my business career, if you don't first promote yourself, who will?
The selection process is intense and completed by a panel selected each year using an established set of guidelines.
Once selected and confirmed, Leadership Charlotte begins with a community reception to introduce the new class. After that, the group fun begins a few weeks later with an evening "ice-breaker" orientation, followed by a full day workshop called "Simulated Society."
Affectionately referred to by alumni as SimSoc, this enlightening experience is one of the most unique group activities most have ever even imagined. It all starts with selections and appointments of …. blah, blah, blah, blah … and consists of so many …. yada, yada, yada, yada … and wraps up with the participants … *crickets chirping* … to complete the SimSoc experience. Can you believe it? No wonder SimSoc is the renowned experience that all Leadership Charlotte alumni talk about for, literally, the rest of their lives.
If you didn't catch on, the SimSoc details are strictly confidential. This policy has held up since 1988, so that right there should tell you something.
Following SimSoc, the class completes day-long sessions over the next eight months, and one evening event. The sessions are designed to provide a deep-dive into specific areas of the community including the environment, education, government, health care, arts and humanities, local economy, media and communication, tourism, and justice.
Course requirements for graduation include mandatory attendance at the Simulated Society session (Friday, October 16, 2020) and at each monthly session, usually held the second Thursday of the month, unless one is excused for special circumstances. Only two excused absences are allowed in order to graduate and join the ranks of the more than 800 alumni members as they continue to lead many of the business and community service efforts in Charlotte County.
The esteemed alumni includes bankers, clergy, lawyers, paralegals, accountants, small business owners, educators, realtors, law enforcement officers, artists, sales managers, CEOs, elected officials, and just about any other type of local professional that you can imagine.
I could go on-and-on about the Leadership Charlotte program … which I think I have … but it is near-and-dear to me, the Charlotte County Chamber of Commerce, and the community. The upcoming Class of 2021 will be one for the record books

The A.C. Freeman House
Do you remember how excited we were to be back in our Punta Gorda offices at the historic A.C. Freeman House? Well not so fast, my friends. We're out again. The stately old house developed some major new problems which will need significant repair. (Imagine an invisible, gigantic blue tarp and the accompanying issues.)
This time it looks like it's going to be months instead of weeks, so we will be operating completely from our Port Charlotte location for quite a while. We hoped to be back there soon.
Teri Ashley is the executive director of the Charlotte County Chamber of Commerce, now in its 95th year, with offices in both Punta Gorda and Port Charlotte. She can be reached at 941-627-2222 or at tashley@charlottecountychamber.org.

Failures of (large diameter) cast iron trunk water mains can be catastrophic in the damage they can cause and it is therefore imperative to understand how cast iron deteriorates in order to help predict those areas of a water supply network which are at greatest risk of failure. Cast irons undergo a localized form of corrosion known as graphitic corrosion. Although a well reported phenomena, the mechanisms of graphitic corrosion are not fully understood. Scanning electron microscopy, in conjunction with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, was used to characterise the microstructure and chemistry of the graphitic corrosion that occurs on the external surface of the pipe during time in service. It was found that that the graphite flakes within the cast iron are deteriorating during the corrosion process. High levels of chlorides are often found at the corrosion interface, within graphitic pits in the pipe wall. The implications of these observations on the development of models used to predict the remaining service life of buried trunk main are discussed. Keywords: corrosion, cast iron, water distribution, chlorides, trunk main.

Q: LiveList is called twice when updating I'm using LiveList to bind the children of a group to a list containing the data of the children. here is an example:
public class Main extends Application {

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        ObservableList<Integer> intList = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
        LiveList<Circle> circleList = LiveList.map(intList, i -> {
            System.out.println("in");
            return new Circle(i);
        });

        Group group = new Group();
        Bindings.bindContent(group.getChildren(), circleList);

        intList.add(2);
        intList.clear();
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }
}

My problem is that for each change in intList the bound list is updated twice and which creates more objects than needed. Running the code gives:

I want that for each element in intList there will be a Circle in the group's children. Why does this happen and how can I make it work properly?

A: The exception description is a red herring - the message "duplicate children added" is given whenever at the end of the change the number of children doesn't match what the change predicted it to be.
In your case, what actually happens is that the circle is not removed, so the Group ends up with a single child, yet clear predicted it should have ended with 0.
The reason why the circle is not removed is that it is not the same circle - your mapper creates a new Circle object whenever it is asked to perform the mapping, and so you get 1 circle when adding it, and a completely different one when clearing the list - this new Circle cannot be removed from the children of the group, and so it remains with 1 child even after the call to clear, triggering the exception.
To solve this you would have to make sure you return the same target-object for the same source-object - this may not be possible if your list of integers may contain duplicates.

Q: Open multidatespicker on button click I have the following code working with a simple datepicker;
when I click on the button the picker displayed.
I need this to be work with a multidatespicker:
Simple datepicker JS script.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#date').datepicker();
    $('#btnRepercute').click(function() {
          $('#date').datepicker('show');
      });
    });
    </script>

HTML input fields.
<input type="button" value="Répercuter" class="button" id="btnRepercute"/>
<input type="text" id="date" class="hidden" />

Attempts so far with multidatespicker
$('#date').multiDatesPicker();
$('#btnRepercute').click(function() {
      $('#date').multiDatesPicker();
});

Nothing happens, no errors in the console.
Thanks in advance for your help!

A: First you need to unregister the datepicker event and then attach the multiDatesPicker event , after that focus the element
$('#btnRepercute').click(function() {

  $("#date").datepicker( "destroy" );
 $('#date').multiDatesPicker();
 $('#date').focus();
});

Hope it works fine

Davis, CA – Mel George wasn't out to start a trend when he decided to set up a short course on water quality issues for owners of California's 17 million acres of private rangeland.
With water quality regulations for non-point source pollution inevitable, it just seemed like the logical course to follow. Many ranchers thought so, too. In 1990, the state's ranchers developed a program of voluntary compliance with the U.S. Clean Water Act, federal and state coastal zone regulations, and California's own clean-water legislation, the Porter-Cologne Act.
In 1995, the State Water Resources Control Board, part of California's Environmental Protection Agency, approved the California Rangeland Water Quality Management Plan for non-federal lands. The plan was put together by University of California Cooperative Extension, USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), and other state advisory committees and consultants. That opened the door for George, a range management specialist at the University of California, to develop the course for ranchers to help them identify potential pollution sources on their land.
Between 1992 and 1996, with funding from the State Water Resources Control Board, George and his co-workers from UC Cooperative Extension – including livestock and range management advisors Stephanie Larson and John Harper – designed and tested the course.
In the early 1990's, nobody was doing anything like the course, says George. University of California Cooperative Extension still focused on agricultural commodities, but not water quality and agriculture.
"I can remember in meetings that people couldn't believe that we were talking about 'bad' things like water pollution instead of a bag of new seed or fertilizer," George recalls.
Between 1997 and 2002, 777 people participated in 50 short courses. Ranch sizes ranged from less than 500 acres to more than 50,000 – 47 percent were less than 500 acres and 37 percent were 1,000 to 5,000 acres. Most of those attending were ranchers; others included agency employees and teachers. Some were anti-government, and reluctant to participate.
In the course, participants learned about non-point source pollution associated with ranching; basin plans and assessments, including the state's impaired water body list; and about the non-point source pollution measure, the total maximum daily load of sediment in water. Most rangeland owners developed plans that included descriptions of their ranch, ranch goals, maps, and water quality status. They assessed non-point source pollution on their property, looked at the methods they used to manage their property, and planned new management practices.
Last year, George and his co-workers evaluated the effectiveness of the short course. Of the 440 (61 percent) who responded to a survey, most have assessed the trouble spots on their property and have started making changes. Before the course, most said they were taking it to avoid regulation. After the course, however, they were more interested in reducing non-point source pollution on their lands, which shows, says George, how education can change attitudes. However, less than half have implemented a monitoring program. That's a weakness of rangeland stewardship programs throughout the West, say George and the other authors of the survey.
Still, George thinks that education, cost-sharing and technical support work better than imposing regulations without education, cost-sharing and technical support. Most ranchers are improving their land management and protecting water quality. They realize that good stewardship is preferable to $25,000-a-day fines for not controlling pollution sources.
The short course had some unintended results. After taking the course, 156 landowners said they became more interested in the work of local watershed groups and 66 helped organize watershed groups. A few joined existing watershed councils organized by environmental groups. One was appointed to the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Other people have established programs patterned on the short course, says George. In San Luis Obispo and Northern Santa Barbara counties, UC Cooperative Extension horticulture farm advisor Mary Bianchi set up a short course for farmers who grow row crops. The Fish Friendly Farming program was established for grape growers in the Russian, Navarro and Gualala watersheds in 1999, and in Napa County, as the Napa Green Certification Program, in 2003. With funding from the U.S. Renewable Resources Extension Act, which is administered by UC Cooperative Extension, watershed management advisor David Lewis set up a series of sediment workshops for watershed advisory councils along California's north coast.
George still teaches the rangeland short course, and has also put the course on a Web site (http://californiarangeland.ucdavis.edu, click on "Ranch Water Quality Planning").
Although he feels progress has been made, there's still a long way to go, says George – 90 percent of California's rangeland, in fact.

Q: disable browser localization How do I get the websites that I visit to stop localizing the language probably according to my IP location?  This is an website specific issue because, for example economist.com and superuser.com do not do it, but Google Checkout and craigslist.org are doing it.  Is there a way to setup Ubuntu and Firefox so that English will always be used for all web pages displayed?
Edit: Of course many webpages have a link to an English version, but sometimes they don't.  For example I believe such links usually appear on the root resource but sometimes I see non-English languages on child resources where such links do not appear.  Example: most Blogger.com blogs appear in English but when I go to the blogger's profile ("view my complete profile"), it appears in another language that matches my geographic location.

A: If the website is using geolocation by IP address, there is nothing you can do – short of setting up a proxy server somewhere in UK or USA.
If the site is using Accept-Language, meinertz's answer applies.

A: There are some settings in Firefox you can try to mess with. I'm using Firefox 4 on Windows, but i think you should be able to find it in approximately the same place:
Open the options (if you are using ff3 on linux i think it's under Edit -> Preferences...) and switch to the "Content"-tab. There should be some language specific options which you can try to mess with.

A: in opera chromium based it was under Settings -> Languages I remove the additional language so sites will see one proffering .
