More deaths and injuries linked to GM ignition switch defect
by theevokegroup | Nov 4, 2014 | Injuries, News and Press | 0 comments
The independent administrator of the General Motors (GM) compensation fund has found more deaths and injuries caused by the faulty ignition switches than GM originally found on its own. The new count includes at least six more deaths and four more injuries that GM has not acknowledged. And the independent administrator, Kenneth Feinberg, says that the number is likely to rise. As Feinberg told the PBS NewsHour, the main reason is that the independent compensation program uses a less strict standard to evaluate claims. For example, the program includes the claims of injured or killed parties other than the driver, such as passengers or pedestrians. Also, the program does not deny claims if a secondary factor, such as speeding, contributed to the death or injury. According to CBS News, these findings have raised major criticism aimed at GM. Some claim that this shows that GM has sought to avoid taking total responsibility for the damage caused by the faulty ignition switch. Other critics assert that the independent compensation program itself will not be able to uncover the true extent of the damage because key makes and models were excluded from consideration by the fund. The compensation program began accepting applications this summer, and it will continue to accept applications until December 31 of this year.

Introducing the Traverse City Pit Spitters
Traverse City MI – Have you seen a pit being spit? Have you tried to spit a pit? Have you succeeded in spitting a pit? We have done all of these and we liked it so much we're naming the team in honor of this grand tradition. The Traverse City Pit Spitters are coming to town!
The new name was selected from the thousands of entries fans submitted when the team asked for name submissions last fall. "Pit Spitters" was submitted by several people and of that group Ryan Wright of Traverse City was randomly selected as the winning contestant from those winning entries. He will receive a prize package including season tickets to the Pit Spitters 2019 season, team merchandise and he will throw a ceremonial first pitch on Opening Day! Other Pit Spitters entries will receive tickets to a future Pit Spitters game and merchandise.
The name was officially unveiled earlier today at the State Theatre in downtown Traverse City where local media and residents were on hand. Merchandise and ticket packages are currently available at www.pitspitters.com.
"When we started this process, our goal was to find a name that represents both this region and the core values of our organization. Pit Spitters hits it out of the park. Not only do we get to recognize Northern Michigan's, and specifically Traverse City's, unique agricultural history, we have created a name and a brand that screams FUN which is what we are all about. We hope that the Traverse City Pit Spitters become synonymous with affordable, family-friendly entertainment, strong community connections and a deep appreciation for everything that Traverse City and Northern Michigan have to offer as a region," said Pit Spitters CEO Joe Chamberlin.
Traverse City is known as "The Cherry Capital of the World." Cherries were first introduced to the region in 1852 and quickly became a staple in the Grand Traverse region. Today, the five counties around Traverse City make up a region that produces 40 percent of the annual tart cherry crop in the United States and the city is home to the ultimate celebration of cherries, the National Cherry Festival held every year in July.
Quick cherry facts:
• There are about 7,000 cherries on an average tart cherry tree. It takes about 250 tart cherries to make a cherry pie, so the average tree produces enough cherries for 28 pies.
• The average American consumes about one pound of tart cherries per year.
Pit spitting is an internationally-recognized sport. Although there are no current professional pit spitting leagues there are several amateur competitions including the International Cherry Spitting Championship in Eau Claire, Michigan and the Cherry Pit Spitting competitions held every year at the National Cherry Festival in Traverse City. The world record for pit spitting in a competition is 93 ft. 6.5 in. by Brain Krause in 2004.
The Pit Spitters open the 2019 Northwoods League season at home on Tuesday, May 28 against the Green Bay Booyah. Tickets for this game and all other 2019 Pit Spitters games will go on sale later this year.
The Traverse City Pit Spitters are in their first year as a member of the Northwoods League. The Northwoods League is a 22-team collegiate summer baseball league which plays from the end of May through mid-August. Last fall a group of investors led by the West Michigan Whitecaps purchased the stadium and started up the new franchise.

A blueberry-loving kiwi called Fizzy could soon be an unlikely personal trainer for recovering stroke survivors.
Fizzy is the star of an augmented reality 3-D "exergame" invented by Wellington technology whizz Regan Petrie, specifically to help stroke survivors' rehabilitation.
"I've really enjoyed working with stroke patients, it's been really interesting and challenging," Regan says.
Using a phone installed with the game, and a handset designed and manufactured with a 3D printer, players throw blueberries around the room for cartoon kiwi Fizzy to find. You can watch it here .
In doing so, the stroke survivor stands up to throw the berries, and sits down to collect more from an augmented reality bucket – encouraging and rewarding movement that's crucial to recovery but which can be hard to motivate in stroke survivors.
You can read a story on Stuff here.
The game is similar to the hugely popular Pokemon Go game that swept the world two years ago, and can be played anywhere.
Regan has worked with physiotherapists and stroke survivors while developing the game and received very positive feedback.
Here's what stroke survivor Caroline had to say: "I love this. I want to get 300 points. . . . 300 woohoo! Oh my goodness, what an improvement, this is fantastic. . . . I will do sit-to-stand three times a day, four times a week.
Nine thousand New Zealanders have a stroke each year – and six million people around the world die from stroke.
Many of those who survive have restricted movement, and physical rehabilitation is often painful, difficult and under-resourced.
Regan says more than two-thirds of survivors might not be getting the recommended level of rehab activities.
So he developed his game – called NZ Fauna AR - for his thesis at Victoria University.
Regan hopes to create two more versions of the game featuring a tuatara for stepping exercises, and a yellow-eyed penguin for walking exercises.
"The potential for this sort of rehabilitation for stroke survivors is huge," Regan says.
Stroke Foundation CEO Mark Vivian says technology could play an increasing role in stroke rehab.
"Motivation and variety can be real challenges to stroke survivors, but AR and VR could unlock a treasure trove of tools to aid with recovery," he says.

Profiles in Tea: James Norwood Pratt
On February 23, 2012 February 14, 2012 By JanisBIn Resources and Information
Is there anyone in America – and beyond – who has not been influenced by James Norwood Pratt, "the guru of tea?" Or inspired by this knowledgeable and engaging writer, speaker, educator, businessman, and dedicated student of tea?
English Tea Store blog published a wonderful article about Mr. Pratt some months ago. He recently, and graciously, agreed to let me interview him.
James Norwood Pratt, right, with Devan Shah.
How and why did you get involved with tea?
Self-defense. I wrote a book about California wine and became a wine pro of sorts. The sacrifice of sobriety turned me toward tea, which is an exact parallel: an agricultural product that can become a work of art.
You currently write for TeaTime Magazine. What are your other projects?
I have a wonderfully productive relationship with Devan Shah, founder of International Tea Importers. We do things together whenever possible: travel to India, participate in events and expositions, lead our tea sommelier classes to bring our coffee-selling friends over from the Dark Side.
Who are your tea mentor/s or tea inspiration/s, and why?
Devan Shah is my principal teacher in the black teas of the world, as well as others. Roy Fong was my teacher in China teas. My first real teacher was Mike Spillane of G.S. Haly Company. So this is my lineage, my ancestry in tea, although I owe large debts to dozens of other individuals.
What changes have you seen in the tea world over the years you've been involved?
My first book on tea appeared in 1982 – thirty years ago – at a time when there were few teas of any distinction in the US. Later that year I tasted my first Darjeeling, which was labeled "First Flush," and which I'd only read about. It came from the venerable Munich firm of Alois Dallmayr. The next year, Mr. Peet in Berkeley started selling Selimbong Estate Darjeeling by the name of the garden itself, then later switched to a different garden. Not understanding that there are almost 90 producing gardens in the district, people kept insisting they wanted the "Selimbong" Darjeeling. Mr. Peet gave up and the company still sells a "Selimbong" Darjeeling every year, regardless of the actual name of the estate it comes from.
Most "China" teas in the US were counterfeit, made in Taiwan. White, pu-erh, and yellow teas were unheard of here. Green tea was known mainly by hear-say.
In 1993 we finally got our first traditional Chinese teahouse, Imperial Tea Court, located a scant three blocks down Russian Hill [in San Francisco] from me. This was the first time Westerners like me had a guide to the teas of China. Previously all my questions to merchants brought only the reply "Good price. You like." So basically there was no way to learn more.
There were no teachers, no classes, no places to meet the like-minded, few teas, and even fewer books of any real value to learn from. My dear friend Helen Gustafson of Chez Panisse always said I did everybody's homework for them in writing my first book, which was the first time since Ukers' in 1935 that anybody's approach to tea was the same as wine. Tea until then was preserved in the rules and customs of the "Doily Ghetto," as I thought of it: a social occasion for ladies who lunch, not a miracle of vegetation with a history, geography, botany, and so forth.
What changes do you predict for the tea world in the future?
We in the US are leading the way, worldwide, in our embrace of tea. The US now imports more tea than the UK and we will soon supersede Japan as the world's fifth largest consuming country. Routine tea drinkers make up less than a quarter of the population, however, so our growth is assured: we can double our numbers and still not reach the half-way point population-wise. Few business prospects are brighter than tea's. Tea will also become increasingly expensive as producing countries drink more and more themselves.
Being a proper Southern gentleman, do you still drink sweet tea (Southern table wine)?
Of course I love sweet tea – or any iced tea – but I only get to drink it when I'm down home.
What is your favourite tea, and how do you prefer to steep and drink it?
I prefer the gaiwan to the teapot, mostly.
I like Yunnan Royal Gold Bud tea first thing, and I like it in the 1721 Meissen Drackenmunster breakfast cup designed for the patron of European porcelain, Elector Augustus the Strong of Dresden. After that, I'm easy to please as long as it's wet and goes down the right way.

Major A.S. Jack Kenworthy Escorts Lt. General Tomoyuki Yamashita to Trial
Lieutenant General Tomoyuki Yamashita, the "Tiger of Malaya," is arraigned before the War Crimes Commission in Manila, pleading not guilty. He will be confined at New Bilibid Prison until his trial, October 29, 1945, in Manila. Here, Major A. S. "Jack" Kenworthy, Military Police prison officer, delivers Gen. Yamashita to the residence of the Philippine High Commissioner, where Yamashita was held for arraignment in the first step of the war-crime trials to be held in the Pacific. The arraignment was open to the public. Yamashita was brought from his cell in New Bilibid Prison in an ambulance for security reasons. The legitimacy of the hasty trial has been called into question by many, as considerable evidence pointed to the fact that Yamashita was either not aware of the atrocities that were committed, or was unable to properly control his soldiers due to communication disruption caused by the U.S. Army during their offensive. One of the atrocities in Manila was even carried out by a unit that disobeyed his orders to retreat. Following the Supreme Court decision, an appeal for clemency was made to President Truman. The President, however, declined to act and thereby left the matter entirely in the hands of the military. In due time, General MacArthur announced that he had confirmed the sentence of the Commission and on February 23, 1946, at Los Banos Prison Camp, 30 miles south of Manila, Tomoyuki Yamashita was hanged.

Q: How to use java commands in powershell All I'm trying to do here is determine whether or not this specific version of java is installed. The Program should only either return "Java is installed" or return a non-zero exit error with "Java is not installed".

 function Check_Java_Installed {

   $app = java -version | Out-String

     if ($app -contains "1.8.0_141"){
         Write-Output "Java installed"
     }
     else{
         Write-Error -Message "Java not installed"
     }
 }

 Check_Java_Installed

Output (Powershell ISE):
java : java version "1.8.0_141"
At C:\temporary\Installers\java-checker.ps1:3 char:12
+    $app = (java -version) | Out-String
+            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (java version "1.8.0_141":String) [], RemoteException

    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.WriteErrorException,Check_Java_Installed

Output (Powershell):

A: *

*java -version prints to stderr, which the obsolescent PowerShell ISE treats as an error, unlike regular PowerShell console windows. To capture stderr output, you must use redirection 2>&1

*

*Note: PowerShell wraps stderr lines from external programs in System.Management.Automation.ErrorRecord objects. In PowerShell [Core] v6+, these objects sensibly stringify to their original string content if you pipe to Out-String, for instance. Unfortunately, this is not true in Windows PowerShell (v5.1-), so you'll have to call .ToString() on them; the alternative is to shell out to cmd.exe and apply the redirection there (cmd /c 'java -version 2>&1'), but that is inefficient and can have side effects.

*The -contains operator tests an array for the presence of an element, it doesn't perform a substring search; you can use the [string] type's .Contains() method for the latter, or - more PowerShell-idiomatically - the -match operator, though note that -match operates on regular expressions rather than literal strings, and is case-insensitive by default. Note that with -match the . chars. in search string 1.8.0_141 must then be \-escaped in order for them to be treated literally.

*Write-Error writes to PowerShell's error stream, it doesn't set an exit code. While it is possible to assign to $global:LASTEXITCODE to set an exit code from a function, PowerShell doesn't use exit codes internally.
Instead, name your function Test-* (Test is an approved verb) and make it return $true or $false.
Alternatively, name it Assert-JavaInstalled and make it throw an error that aborts processing of the script.
To put it all together:
# Functions named Test-* should return $true or $false
function Test-JavaInstalled {
   # In Windows PowerShell, use:
   #   (java -version 2>&1 | % ToString | Out-String)
   (java -version 2>&1 | Out-String) -match '1\.8\.0_141'
}

# Call the function.
if (Test-JavaInstalled) {
  "Java installed"
} else {
  Write-Error"Java not installed"
}

Alternatively, name your function Assert-JavaInstalled and make it generate a script-terminating error via throw, if Java is found not to be installed:
function Assert-JavaInstalled {
   # In Windows PowerShell, use:
   #   (java -version 2>&1 | % ToString | Out-String)
   if ((java -version 2>&1 | Out-String) -match '1\.8\.0_141')) {
     "Java installed"
   }
   else {
     # Throw a script-terminating error.
     throw "Java not installed"
   }
}

# Call the function.
Assert-JavaInstalled

I am always getting count as 0 instead of some integer value. While debugging I take the query and execute in MS ACCESS 2013, it gives me correct result. I am not getting what is the issue.

A: You are getting tripped up by the difference in LIKE wildcard characters between queries run in Access itself and queries run from an external application.
When running a query from within Access itself you need to use the asterisk as the wildcard character: LIKE 'RT*'.
When running a query from an external application (like your C# app) you need to use the percent sign as the wildcard character: LIKE 'RT%'.

A: Try ExecuteScalar() method
Replace This:
 OleDbDataReader dr1 = qtc.ExecuteReader();
 while (dr1.Read())
 {
    ttCnt = (int)dr1["Count"];
 }

With This:
 ttCnt = Convert.ToInt32(qtc.ExecuteScalar());

The state that "our data show that fully networked enterprises are not only more likely to be market leaders or to be gaining market share but also use management practices that lead to margins higher than those of companies using the Web in more limited ways.".

Almost universally, organizations participating in the study felt they were behind their competitors -- or the market in general -- when it came to internal social networking initiatives. The media, blogs, and vendors are all abuzz about social networking tools, and some enterprises have started to roll them out. In those situations, IT organizations felt it was sufficient to just "turn on" those features rather than look at vendor alternatives.
However, the market responded negatively to the social tools included within MOSS 2007. Thought-leadership was lost as competitors (e.g., This buyer-preference has included virtually all vendors to expand offerings of single social tools into suites or platforms.

The authors note that customers, employees, and competitors comment on products, personalities, and companies in increasingly public places, like Twitter and discussion forums. This is not simply a Web issue as internal sources like emails and call center notes are full of product suggestions, feedback on competitors, and thoughts on the market. Perhaps I am biased because I have been talking with a lot of vendors in this space.
While the media stories below fail to provide detailed product guidance as to where Cisco is going, the information does provide interesting insight as to how Cisco's leadership team thinks about collaboration, cloud computing, and other market initiatives. In this case, it helps me better assess whether Cisco exhibits the level of business acumen necessary to successfully move into market adjacencies such as collaboration and Web 2.0. .

For the most part I agree but we're still in the phase were vendors are hyping the benefits and not being transparent regarding some of the "non-fun" aspects of making these systems acceptable for large enterprise environments. I don't address the conflict these tools will have with enterprise IM/UC systems but that's another decision organizations will have to address - and will UC vendors respond in a "good enough" fashion to keep these tools from gaining any type of long-term traction.
Beehive is (at least) Oracle's third attempt to introduce a credible collaboration solution into the market.

There are a couple of ways to look at how Microsoft is responding to market and customer demand for social software (lets define it for sake of argument as social software being equal to blogs, wikis, tags/bookmarks, feed syndication and social networking): 1. That said, overall, what is implemented is pretty marginal compared to specialized vendors in the market. These vendors are investing a lot of time, money and resources to deliver a high-level of integration.
For me, these tasks ranged from reviewing every new member's profile, updating permissions, answering questions, listeng to what the members are saying, reviewing and moderating posts where necessary, contacting bloggers, lining up webcast speakers, moderating monthly webcasts, validating community uptime and response time, and keeping an eye on competitor sites.

The lack of any review cycle by either vendors or the firms themselves allows for very timely posting, but can represent a real challenge to AR teams. . Several important best practice process steps come to mind: Know the analysts in your market that use social media regularly and ensure they have the company position and key messages the moment the news breaks.

If that's true then it bears out my suspicion that the "charge 'em high, fly in gurus, preach to novices, and pander to vendors&# business model is indeed starting to crack, at least in the smaller more fragmented markets.

Windsor Locks had a population of only 4,300 during World War II, but it sent nearly 15 percent of its population to war — an incredible 603 men! Several died during the Normandy campaign.
by Philip R. Devlin
During World War II, more than 210,000 men and 3,300 women from Connecticut were sent to war. More than 5,300 died during the war, and many thousands more were wounded. Many of those casualties occurred during the Normandy campaign which began on D-Day — June 6, 1944 — 69 years ago this week.
There are 161 men and women from Connecticut memorialized in the famous cemetery at Colleville sur Mer, located on a plateau above Omaha Beach in Normandy. Since about 50 percent of the war dead were sent home for burial, we can assume that over 300 Connecticut servicemen and women died during the Normandy campaign. In fact, of the four women buried in the cemetery, two of them — Dolores Browne and Mary Harlow — are from Connecticut.
Most of the dead, however, did not die on the day of the invasion. They died in the next 3-4 months in France during the fierce inland fighting. Many of these Connecticut casualties were men from Windsor Locks.
The most well-known victims from Windsor Locks during the Normandy campaign were the Smalley brothers — Edward and Francis. Corp. Francis E. Smalley was in Company F of the 360th Engineers Regiment. He was killed on September 4, 1944 at the age of 28. His brother, Pvt. Edward F. Smalley, survived his sibling by only 10 days. He served with the 317th infantry of the 80th Division. The local VFW in Windsor Locks is named after the Smalley brothers.
Sgt. Matthew J. Rachel was one of three Rachel brothers to serve in the war. He, too, died in action in France during the Normandy campaign. The German who killed Sgt. Rachel claimed another victim, too, as Sgt. Rachel's father was stricken with a fatal heart attack upon hearing the news of his son's death.
Private Albert C. Przybycien was yet another to pay the supreme sacrifice during the Normandy campaign. Trained in telephone communications in the infantry, he was killed in action on June 26, 1944, barely three weeks after the D-Day landings.
Yet another infantryman to die in France was Pvt. Edward W. Goyette. He was serving with the 169th Infantry when he was killed while attacking a German machine gun nest on July 18, 1944.
Naval coxswain Kenneth H. MacAulay was only 19 when he died on Omaha Beach on D-Day. He had driven a landing craft carrying troops to the shore when his boat was hit by artillery from a German artillery battery onshore.
Staff Sgt. William F. Kuczynski of Windsor Locks participated in the D-Day invasion and was wounded on Omaha Beach. He was sent back to England for recovery. After recovery, he rejoined the 4th Motorized Division of the 12th Infantry and was killed in action on February 10, 1945 — just three months before the war ended.
Another Windsor Locks casualty of the Normandy campaign was Pvt. William Asselin of Grove St. A member of the 2nd Armor Division, Bill had survived the landing at Omaha Beach; however, during ferocious hedgerow fighting near St. Lo, Bill was hit by an artillery shell and lost a leg.
Staff Sgt. William J. McCue was a member of the 306th Bombardment Group of the 8th Air Force. He was a ball-turret gunner on a B-17. Sgt. McCue's bombardment group participated in the D-Day invasion by bombing French bridges inland. Though he survived the Normandy campaign, Sgt. McCue lost his life on Jan. 1, 1945. He was on his 35th mission when he died. Sadly, he would have been sent home after this mission. Like the Smalleys and the Rachels, Bill McCue was one of three brothers who served during the war.
Another group of brothers who served from Windsor Locks was my father and three of his brothers. My father was with the 189th Hospital unit and was in charge of setting up the logistics of caring for the wounded. He was in Normandy for several months. (See the picture gallery for a copy of a postcard that he sent from Normandy to my grandmother.) He survived the war physically unscathed but had to cope periodically with bad memories of some of the war wounded that he saw.
The town of Windsor Locks, CT, sent over 600 of its young men off to war — a very large percentage of its population at the time. Of that number, 16 paid the supreme sacrifice — 13 in the European Theater of Operations. Six of those 13 deaths occurred during the Normandy campaign, by far the costliest campaign in the war for the young men from Windsor Locks.
The heavy involvement of Windsor Locks youth in the war may help explain why the town led the nation in per capita giving during the 3rd War Loan bond drive.

Varicose veins are a very common condition that is associated with venous insufficiency. While healthy veins have valves that prevent blood from flowing backwards within the vein, varicose veins have faulty valves that allow the backward flow of blood, causing it to pool. It is estimated that 75% of the global population experience varicose veins in their lifetime and that 25% suffers from pain related to this pathology.
Many patients ask us about our top tips to relieve varicose pain before seeking treatment. We recommend a variety of options to aid in your relief.
Creating a routine out of certain habits can help reduce varicose vein pain. While each of these habits can help reduce your varicose vein symptoms, you may find one habit that helps relieve your symptoms the most.
Elevation of the foot: Gravity is your biggest enemy when it comes to varicose veins. The blood in the varicose veins are unable to flow up the leg while you are standing up. Thus, to facilitate venous decongestion,it is advisable to elevate the leg, regularly during the day). This facilitates the venous blood flow of the lower limbs and decreases the symptoms and evolution of varicose veins.
Have a balanced diet: If you are experiencing swelling, an excessive intake of salt can cause edema in the legs (by the retention of water) and should be avoided.
Avoid prolonged heat sources: It is important to make the habit to avoid hot tubs and saunas, because the heat will dilate the vein. With the heat making the vein larger, more blood will pool within the vein, and will intensify your symptoms.
Compression stockings: The number one habit we recommend is to wear compression stockings regularly. We will explore this topic shortly.
Leg exercises, such as walking, swimming and biking, are particularly suitable for preventing and reducing varicose veins pain by reducing venous pressure.The muscles of the lower limb, especially the calves' acts like a pump, and when contracting, they propel the venous blood up the leg and facilitate its drainage. We strongly advise to walk and exercise regularly.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), such as Tylenol, are recommended to temporarily relieve varicose vein pain. They relieve the pain by reducing the inflammatory appearance of varicose veins (by inhibiting prostaglandins that have vasodilating activity). They also have a fast method of blocking the pain signals to your brain.
Gradient compression socks serve as much to relieve symptoms of existing varicose veins, as to prevent the appearance of new varicose veins. They act as a "second layer" of muscles that exert active pressure on the superficial veins. The pressure is stronger at the ankle than at the thigh, which facilitates the venous return. They also prevent varicose veins from getting worse and creating complications like venous ulcers.
To maximize the comfort of these stockings, it is recommended to put them on in the morning before getting up.By putting them in a supine position, we prevent blood from falling and stagnating in the legs. Ideally, they should be worn all day.
Their degree of compression is variable depending on your venous condition. It is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). In any case, do not hesitate to seek help from a vein specialist to recommend a compression stocking for you.
Pain from varicose veins are a very common problem. It is often advisable to exercise regularly and to wear compression stockings to reduce the swelling and pain associated with varicose veins.
It should be kept in mind that there is no "cure" for varicose veins. Once the vein is enlarged and the valves no longer function properly, it is not possible to repair the vein. If you are experiencing persistent symptoms, and are unable to tolerate them any longer, consult a varicose vein specialist to create a customized treatment plan for you.
What Does Heredity Have to Do With Varicose Veins?

5G technology plays growing role in nation's industrial upgrading
Source:http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/a
Chinese conventional industries are gaining traction from 5G technologies, as a number of latest products are showcased in the annual China International Industry Fair (CIIF) starting on Tuesday.
A demo vehicle of a 5G supported intelligent heavy truck was exhibited by SAIC Motor Corp Ltd, the largest listed auto company on China's A-share market.
The heavy truck is designed and manufactured by SAIC, part of a collaborative project launched by SAIC, Shanghai International Port (Group) (SIPG) and China Mobile earlier this year, according to Cheng Yisong, a project manager from SAIC.
"SAIC has produced 20 such intelligent heavy trucks so far this year, and kicked off closed road tests in late June," said Cheng.
According to the agreement, the trucks are expected to start commercial operation between Yangshan Port and Lingang by 2024.These unmanned trucks will play a great role in transferring containers from the port and greatly enhancing its capacity.
China Mobile exhibited the integration of its 5G technology with manufacturing machinery through digital twin technology.
In June, China Mobile joined hands with Shanghai Tobacco Machinery Co Ltd by copying a tobacco manufacturing machine in virtual space, said Tian Weicheng, a project manager with China Mobile (Shanghai) Industrial Research Institute.
According to Tian, the copied version operates simultaneously with the physical one at Shanghai Tobacco Machinery, and the digital twin technology makes augmented reality maintenance, inspection and failure recovery possible.
Industrial visual application is also taking advantage of 5G and AI technologies for quality control, said Han Yu, a senior manager with Shanghai Gantu Network Technology Co Ltd.
"Conventional quality inspection uses human eyes, which is unstable, while our application on key automotive parts has a defect recognition rate of 99 percent, enhancing work efficiency by 4 times and saving 80 percent of labor," Han said, adding that the machinery visual technology has already been used by several enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta region.
5G technology is also helpful in community maintenance and management in up to 1,000 communities across Shanghai, according to Shou Chenfei, a business manager from China Telecom.
"Sensors installed at fire hydrants, trash bins and manhole covers can do a better job than humans in daily community operation as well as preventing incidents including fire alarms," said Shou.
The five-day CIIF, which started on Tuesday, takes up an area of 280,000 square meters and has attracted 2,610 exhibitors from 27 countries and regions including the United States, Germany and France, according to Wu Jincheng, chairman of Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization.


Acton is about five miles (8 km) from I-495 and ten miles (16 km) from I-95/Route 128. Routes 2, 2A, 27, 62, 111, and 119 run through town.
Acton offers 'open enrollment' within each of its five elementary schools. While the curriculum is quite similar in all schools, each has a slightly different teaching philosophy. Parents can select the one they feel is best for their child. Since school attendance is not based solely on neighborhoods, and town sports teams are not organized around school enrollment, there tends to be greater socialization beyond a given neighborhood.

FRANK ROSS vs. COLONIAL PROVISION COMPANY, INC.
299 Mass. 39
October 6, 1937 - December 17, 1937
Present: RUGG, C.J., FIELD, DONAHUE, LUMMUS, & QUA, JJ.
Evidence, Letter. Corporation, Ultra vires, Officers and agents. Agency, Scope of authority. Practice, Civil, Exceptions: what is subject to exception; Amendment.
Liability to a plaintiff for services in obtaining for the defendant the financing by a corporation of certain transactions could not be denied upon the ground that the financing was ultra vires the corporation.
The contents of a letter not produced on call on the ground that it had not been received could be proved by copy, there being no suggestion by the addressee that the original had not been properly mailed.
Evidence warranted a finding that services, performed for a corporation and procured by two who were a majority of the directors, the holders of a majority of its stock and in active control of its operations, were performed by its authority.
The question of the sufficiency of evidence to warrant a particular finding of fact in an action heard without jury cannot be raised solely by an exception to the finding.
There was no error in allowing an amendment of a declaration to set up a claim established by the findings after a hearing without jury; the allowance of the amendment imported a finding that the issues relating to such claim had been fully and fairly tried.
CONTRACT. Writ in the Superior Court dated July 5, 1935.
The action was heard by Brogna, J.
G. L. Rabb, (M. M. Rabb with him,) for the defendant.
D. J. Lyne, for the plaintiff.
LUMMUS, J. The judge, sitting without a jury, found for the plaintiff in the sum of $5,200 and interest in an action for services. Counts of the declaration based upon a claim for a broker's commission were made immaterial by the finding of the judge that no such commission had been promised. The plaintiff is a real estate broker of thirty years' experience. The defendant is a corporation, organized in 1918, which cures and smokes meats and makes sausages. One sixth of its stock is owned by one Lewis, and the rest is
held in equal shares by one Rabinowitz, the president, and one Drucker, the treasurer. Rabinowitz, Drucker, and an employee named Braen were the directors during the events in question. In 1933 it was conducting business in six scattered buildings in the market district of Boston, and was anxious to gather its business under one roof. The plaintiff heard that the defendant was desirous of buying real estate, and as a broker offered the defendant several parcels. One difficulty was that a location satisfactory to the defendant would cost with improvements as much as $180,000, and the defendant did not wish to use its own capital for the purpose. The evidence showed that the defendant at least permitted the plaintiff to perform in its behalf valuable and extended service in negotiating the purchase of land and arranging to finance the purchase and the improvements. The details need not be recited. The judge found that the value of the plaintiff's services was $5,200. There was evidence warranting that finding.
The exception to the refusal of the defendant's sixth request cannot be sustained. That request relates to a broker's commission, and the recovery allowed was for services, not for a commission. The ninth and twelfth requests relate to counts on which the recovery was not based. The fifth request was in substance that the financing of the purchase and the improvements by a certain corporation was ultra vires of that corporation. If so, that would be no reason for denying the plaintiff payment for his services. The tenth and eleventh requests dealt with the contention of the defendant that the plaintiff acted for opposing parties in the negotiations without disclosing the fact. It is true that the plaintiff brought actions for commissions or services against some of those parties as well as against the defendant. But the judge found that "all parties had full knowledge of the plaintiff's relationship in the matter, and consented to it," and found that there was no employment of the plaintiff by any of the opposing parties against whom suits were brought. Under these circumstances the refusal of the requested rulings was not error. The admission in evidence of the letter sent by the plaintiff
to the defendant, dated July 11, 1934, was not error. There was no suggestion at the trial that it was not properly sent by mail. [Note p41]
The defendant requested a ruling in substance that the employment of the plaintiff by Rabinowitz was not authorized by the defendant. There was evidence that Rabinowitz and Drucker owned the great majority of the shares of stock of the defendant, and were its only directors except for Braen who was merely an employee. Apparently they were in active control of its operations. There was evidence that Drucker over a long period of time knew of the efforts of the plaintiff and conversed with him and Rabinowitz about them. Drucker testified that Rabinowitz "was handling this particular thing." The defendant corporation "drew up plans and specifications for the plaintiff." Finally, the defendant corporation entered into the transaction which, as the judge found, "was in no small measure the result of the services which were rendered by the plaintiff to the defendant at its request." The requested ruling was properly denied.
The attempt by the defendant to except to findings of particular facts after they were made, on the ground that the evidence did not warrant the findings, was as ineffectual as an attempt so to except to a general finding would have been. Stowell v. H. P. Hood & Sons, Inc. 288 Mass. 555. Forbes v. Gordon & Gerber, Inc. 298 Mass. 91, 94. The exceptional doctrine of Leshefsky v. American Employers' Ins. Co. 293 Mass. 164, 167, has no application.
The judge did not err in permitting the plaintiff, after the finding had been made, to amend his declaration by adding a fifth count on an account annexed for personal services, which stated the plaintiff's claim in conformity to the facts found. It is well settled that after a verdict or finding the pleadings may be amended to conform to and
support the cause of action found to exist, where the judge finds that the issues under the amended pleadings have been fully and fairly tried though without appropriate pleadings. Pizer v. Hunt, 253 Mass. 321, 331. Hushion v. McBride, 296 Mass. 4, 8, and cases cited. The allowance of the amendment imports a finding that the issues opened by the amendment have already been fully and fairly tried. Bucholz v. Green Bros. Co. 290 Mass. 350, 354, 355. Commonwealth v. Millen, 290 Mass. 406, 414.
The defendant made a motion for a new trial on the grounds that the finding was against the law, the evidence and the weight of the evidence, and that the damages were excessive. Although the bill of exceptions states that the judge give the motion "consideration," which for the most part at least he was not bound to do (Nerbonne v. New England Steamship Co. 288 Mass. 508, 510), the motion was addressed to the discretion of the judge, and its denial raised no question of law. Syriopoulos v. Cormier, 297 Mass. 226. The motion did not point out the nature of any error in law relied on. The alleged errors of law argued on the motion were raised or could have been raised at the trial, and it is not shown that the judge revived them on the motion for a new trial. Kelley v. Jordan Marsh Co. 278 Mass. 101, 109. Commonwealth v. Millen, 290 Mass. 406, 407, 408. Commonwealth v. DiStasio, 294 Mass. 273, 287-288.
[Note p41] The plaintiff testified that he wrote the defendant a letter dated July 11, 1934. His counsel then requested the letter of the defendant's counsel, who, stated "I have no such letter. My client on examination says" it "received no such letter." The plaintiff's counsel then offered a paper which the plaintiff testified was a copy of the letter. The copy was admitted subject to the defendant's exception. -- REPORTER.

Many containers are still lost at sea and remain a navigational hazard to vessels in Port Stephens and Newcastle.
Local communities were left with "mountains of debris" after 83 shipping containers were lost overboard in moody seas off Port Stephens on the NSW coast north of Sydney on Friday.
Cargo ship YM Efficiency was travelling from Taiwan to Port Botany when the containers went overboard and crashed into the sea, the NSW Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) said.
While most of the cargo containers remain lost at sea, their contents – including nappies, plastic bottles, surgical masks and Nerds lollies – have been bobbing around in the ocean and washing up onto beaches.
Tea Gardens resident Julie Sims said in a Facebook post that a lot of the rubbish was being blown onto the dunes and was quickly buried by sand.
"I have made contact with RMS to express my concerns," she said on Facebook.
"Please be vigilant when you're out walking and collect this rubbish if you see it."
Sims and other locals have been sharing photos on social media.
A spokesperson for the Yang Ming Marine Transport Corporation told AAP that the containers did not carry dangerous goods or marine contaminants.
The RMS has warned that these could be a hazard for boats and vessels in the area.
MidCoast Council has also advised residents not to move containers that have washed up, as they will need to be inspected and removed by appropriate agencies.

Catholic Cardinal Calls for GMO Labeling (But It's Not All Good News)
by Nick Meyer | October 28, 2013
According to a report from the Des Moines Register, Cardinal Peter K.A. Turkson said that foods containing genetically modified ingredients (or GMOs for genetically modified organisms) should be labeled so that people have the right to choose, and know exactly what they're eating.
The Ghanian cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church, the current president of the Vatican's Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, made the remarks at the recent World Food Prize symposium in downtown Des Moines, where executives from GMO giants Monsanto and Sygenta were given the prizes in a heavily-biased awards program funded in large part by Monsanto itself, one that drew heavy protests outside.
Turkson is shown here in this Wikipedia Commons photo.
He called for better transparency, saying that GMO companies should "adopt the highest standards of communication with the public" to "guarantee producers' and consumers' rights to information" according to the Des Moines Register article.
Labeling Remarks Overshadowed by Pro-Biotech Thoughts
Despite the encouraging call for labeling by Turkson, he also added that the Catholic Church supports biotechnology and GMOs to "help feed the poor and afflicted" of the world.
This "benefit" of GMOs has of course been refuted by large-scale UN studies, however, which have called for a return to smaller-scale, family and community-owned farms.
According to previous comments, the Catholic Church seems to lean toward giving GMOs a chance, although there appears to be some conflict among the church as to whether or not to endorse them.
The U.S. has also reportedly been seeking an endorsement from the church of GMOs to continue its mission to spread the highly profitable, and highly controversial, crops across the third world.
Ultimately, Turkson preached caution, although he did earlier say that he believes the crops hold promise.
"Let us take every reasonable measure of caution beforehand to avoid the risk of human health or the environment," he said.

Pampered Chef: Those who bought Tammy S's CDs - how long to get them?
I'm seriously sitting here thinking about 'pulling the trigger' to buy her 8-cd set. But I want them before going on a 12-hr road trip to see my folks on the 29th.
I'm just wondering from those who've ordered from her website- how long did it take you to get them?? I can't find anything on her website to indicate shipping time.
If it's more than a week, I'll just wait a little longer.
If I can have them before my trip- that's great because I like to listen to audio books when driving, vs music- keeps me more alert for the full ride.
Bobbi, She seems really responsive, you may just want to email her and ask about shipping. I know she lives in AZ, so you can figure ship time from that.
get them within 3-5 days of ordering.
According to USPS, it should take 2 days from Tempe, AZ to my zip...so I should be ok!
Tell DH that they've got resale value if you choose to, lol. Seriously! I would love them but can't spend the $175 on that right now!
I'll let you know! Can't say exactly when at this point...but I'll remember you Kara.

The cast of Netflix's remake of Norman Lear's "One Day at a Time."
The show was a modern-day take on Norman Lear's 1975 show of the same name. In this rendition, the family sitcom centered around complex Latino characters across generations and delved into sensitive topics from addiction to sexism. The cancellation of the program brought out some harsh outcry from fans of the show, including podcast host Maria Hinojosa and playwright Lin-Manuel Miranda, among others. Supporters of the show also took to Twitter and began the trending hashtag #RenewODAAT.
The series ended its third season with the announcement by Netflix that "simply not enough people watched to justify another season." This comes as other Latino-centered shows continue to receive screen time, including the CW's "Jane the Virgin" and Netflix's "On My Block." Yet, Latino roles make up only 7.2% of digital scripted media despite constituting for roughly 18% of the U.S. population.
We look into the history of Latino representation in TV. What were the cultural choices in making "One Day at a Time"? How was it different than previous shows about Latino families in the U.S.? And what led to its cancellation? Weigh in and share your thoughts with us at 866-893-5722.
