IAOP and CISQ Announce Strategic Partnership
Needham, MA, March 1, 2018 – Today, IAOP® and Consortium for Information & Software Quality™ (CISQ™) announce their partnership to provide standards, education and thought leadership to the Information Technology (IT) outsourcing industry.
"We are pleased to partner with CISQ and look forward to working with them in the future to deliver the most relevant information on software development and delivery for outsourcing professionals," said IAOP CEO Debi Hamill. "Through alliances like this one, IAOP continues to promote and advance the management practice and industry of outsourcing."
The missions of both organizations are complementary and intersecting: IAOP is the largest active global community of outsourcing professionals worldwide who consult IAOP for strategic guidance on the outsourcing industry; CISQ is an IT leadership group that develops international standards for automating the measurement of software size, structural quality, and related measures from source code. Standards from CISQ are starting to be leveraged in outsourcing agreements as the equivalent of software quality requirements to manage the delivery of secure, reliable and resilient software.
"Software quality standards are critical to benchmarking, scorecarding, and establishing acceptance criteria for software deliverables," said Dr. Bill Curtis, CISQ Executive Director. Prior to leading CISQ, Dr. Curtis led development of the Capability Maturity Model at the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, a CISQ co-founder. "We look forward to partnering with IAOP to advise the outsourcing industry on best practices for measuring quality code and architecture."
As a result of this partnership, IAOP and CISQ will offer new membership benefits and educational opportunities. IAOP members are invited to a March 7 webinar, Using Software Quality Standards in Outsourced IT Vendor Engagements – a Fortune 100 Case Study, hosted by CISQ.

The Earth is Hottest When It Is Furthest From the Sun On Its Orbit, Not When It Is Closest
December 4, 2011 Daven Hiskey
Today I found out the Earth is hottest when it is furthest from the Sun on its orbit, not when it is closest.
During the period when the Earth is furthest from the sun (aphelion), the average temperature of the entire planet is about 4°F (2.3°C) higher than when it is closest to the sun (perihelion). On average, the intensity of sunlight falling on Earth during aphelion is about 7% less than during perihelion. Despite this, the Earth ends up being warmer during the period in which it is furthest away from the sun.
So what's going on here? During the winter months, for the Northern Hemisphere, the overall temperature of the Southern Hemisphere, where it is summer, doesn't change as much as the other way around. This is because a much larger portion of the Southern Hemisphere, compared to the Northern Hemisphere, is made up of water and water has a significantly greater heat capacity than land. On a similar vein then, during the summer for the Southern Hemisphere, the overall average temperature of the Southern Hemisphere doesn't increase as much as the Northern Hemisphere does during its summer, for this same reason.
So the "tl;dr" version is: there is a lot more land in the Northern Hemisphere than the Southern Hemisphere; this land heats up much faster than water and water cools down much slower than land. So even though there is less intensity of sunlight during the summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the Earth's average temperature is higher at this time when it's furthest from the sun.
As you might have guessed then or already known, the seasons are not caused by the distance the Earth is from the sun, but rather are caused completely by the fact that the Earth is tilted on its axis 23.5°. This is why when it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere, it's winter in the Southern Hemisphere, and vice-verse. Without this tilt, there would be no seasons and the weather from day to day across the globe would be relatively uniform. In this case, there would only be a very slight variation in temperature as the Earth got closer or further away from the Sun, but for the most part, everything weather-wise would stay the same year round.
Bonus Facts:
The Earth orbits the sun at a speed of about 18.4 miles per second or about 66,600 mph.
The energy required to stop the Earth orbiting the sun then is about 2.6478 × 1033 joules or 7.3551 × 1029 watt hours or 6.3285*1017 megatons of TNT. For reference, the largest nuclear explosion ever detonated (the Tsar Bomba by the Soviet Union) "only" produced 50 megatons of TNT worth of energy. So it would take about 12,657,000,000,000,000 of those nuclear bombs detonated at the correct location to stop the Earth from orbiting the sun.
Along with orbiting around the sun at 66,600 mph, the Earth is also rotating at its axis at about 1,070 miles per hour. So you are simultaneously hurtling around the sun at 66,600 mph while sitting on a rock that is spinning at 1,070 mph. On top of that, our whole solar system is rocketing through space around the center of the Milky Way at around 559,234 mph. On top of that, our galaxy is hurtling through space at around 671,080 mph, with respect to our local group of galaxies. On top of that, for all we know, our entire Universe is hurtling through some unknown medium at some other ridiculous speed.
It takes approximately 225 million Earth years for our solar system to make one trip around the Milky Way.
The Earth is about 28,000 light years from the center of the Milky Way, on the outer rim. Most all the mass in the Milky Way is much closer in than we are; this is good because, if the density was the same out here as it is closer to the center, the increase in cosmic radiation would kill us all.
All planets in our solar system travel around the sun in elliptical orbits. The distance to the sun for the Earth varies by about 1.7%. We are closest to the sun in January (perihelion) at about 91.1 million miles (146.6 million km). We are furthest from the sun in July (aphelion) at around 94.8 million miles (152.6 million kilometers). The average distance from the sun to the Earth is known as 1 Astronomical Unit, (1 AU or about 93 million miles).
Summers in the Northern Hemisphere last 2 to 3 days longer than summers in the Southern Hemisphere. The reason why is that the Earth moves more slowly at aphelion than at perihelion.
The date of the period where the Earth is furthest away from the sun is called Summer Solstice. The date at which the Earth is closest to the sun, is called Winter Solstice. Summer Solstice happens on June 21/22. Winter Solstice happens on December 21/22.
In between these two points, there is a point in time where the Sun will appear to rise and set along the equator, so that the length of night and day is almost exactly equal everywhere on the planet. These two points are called the vernal equinox (March 20/21) and autumnal equinox (September 22/23).
The average temperature of the Earth year round is around 61°F (16.1°C). The average coldest temperature on the Earth, in Antarctica, is around -60°F or -51.1°C and the average of the hottest part of the Earth, in the Sahara Desert, is around 130°F (54.4°C).
The hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth was 136°F (57.77 °C) in El Azizia, Libya on the edge of the Sahara Desert. The second hottest, 134°F (56.6°C), was recorded in Death Valley, California in the Mojave Desert way back in 1913.
The coldest temperature on the Earth was recorded at Vostok, Antarctica on July 31, 1983 at -128.6°F (-89.22°C).
Unlike the Earth, which is only shifted about 23.5° on its axis, Uranus' spins almost perpendicular to the sun. Interestingly, despite this fact, Uranus is hotter at its equator than at the poles. The reason why this is the case is not currently known.

I would like to say that this article about earth being warmer when farthest from the sun is completely misleading. A you need clarify, that earth's core temperature may be warmer when farthest from the sun, not the atmospheric temperature. These are two distinct readings and the atmospheric temperature is most hottest when closest to the sun even though the earth's core tempature may be cooler. there needs to be clarity between the readings you take the article's you write.
Before anything, sorry for mi not-so-good english. Its a little bit late to answer your comment, but actually, the article refers to the atmospheric temperature. The contrast in continental mass between the two hemispheres is a critical factor in the control of global temperature. If you want, compare in this gif image(https://planetariumweb.madison.k12.wi.us/files/planetarium/earth-global-temp.gif) the global temperature in July and January (aphelium and perihelium, respectively).
The bonus fact beginning with "The date of the period where the Earth is furthest away from the sun" somewhat confuses solstice and perihelion/aphelion. I have long wondered how close perihelion was to northern winter solstice so a date range would have been more useful than "in January" in the bonus fact 2 bullet points above.

"the Earth ends up being warmer during the period in which it is furthest away from the sun."
http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/further-versus-farther?page=all
Farthest, not furthest… (This is my biggest "pet peeve" – if it is distance you are talking about it is "far")
The Cambridge Dictionary suggests they're both the same…
http://dictionary.cambridge.org/grammar/british-grammar/farther-farthest-or-further-furthest
Language evolves over time. It used to be a cut and clear case as you say that 'furthest' was for abstract distances and 'farthest' was for physical distances but with this distinction not really being taught in school at an early age combined with furthest being more apparent than farthest, furthest is slowly dominating and becoming accepted for both meanings.
Regarding the hottest temperature ever recorded, the Libya datum is no longer considered the hottest because of measurement errors. The hottest temp is now from Death Valley but it is not the 1913 datum but rather from some time in the 2000s.
My mom kept saying winter happened when its farther from the sun and summer happens when earth is closest to the sun. HA! I can prove her wrong now. Thanks!
Well, I guess that depends on which hemisphere you are in.
Desperate_Dan_Irons_man
Sorry Jimbo, if you are carrying a rugby ball, it's winter, and if it's a cricket bat (or an umbrella), it's summer – Simples!
simple. Farthest from the sun is warmer because it's radiant energy.
The summer solstice is not when the earth is "farthest" away from the sun. The solstice is based on the 23.5 degree tilt. The summer solstice occurs when the axis/tilt is pointing directly at the sun. This is why the day is longest.

"Most all the mass in the Milky Way is much closer in than we are; this is good because, if the density was the same out here as it is closer to the center, the increase in cosmic radiation would kill us all."
Wouldn't the radiation spread out to the point where it would be negligible by the time it got to our planet?
How can the Earth be a spherical object at all when the lines of latitude expand south of the equator?
In 1773 Capt Cook sailed a total 69,000 miles at Antarctica, a distance nearly 3x the circumference at the equator.

Once upon a time, there was nothing, nothing, but the endless boundaries of space. What could be in this space, to bring forth life? There was time, the six dimensions of space were there, up, down, right side, left side, and back-wards and forwards. The energy source of time could move in any direction, the dimensions of space could only move in their own direction. ( evolution begins with the energy sources ) When the energy source of time got all the energy sources of the dimensions of space together, the first physical unit came forth, an A T O M , ( at this time all the dimensions knew of all the other directions of space ) they did the same thing over, and over again making atoms with electrons, some more then others. The pull from the clusters of atoms, pulling all the other clusters into one another, making one very big cluster of free moving atom, spinning in space. With all the little twinkling sparks of light coming from the different atoms hitting one another, and the last cluster to come in was the first that came forth, the cluster of gas's, that made the number one sun light up all that darkness. With the spinning, the atoms inside were being forced towards the fire, forming the hard crust just under the fire, leaving the coldness of space behind. With the two energy sources outside, one going in at a time bringing light to the center, and the other five inside, mixing up the evolution parts that came from the heat, with that to come up with the r e c i p e of life. You didn't really think that the dinosaur came from the earth? ( did you ) How about the energy sources that became our gods? They grew up just like a baby, one day at a time. A lot of shit was going on in there, and the one outside and myself went in to help, and the number one sun just blew apart, the number one sun just wasn't big enough to hold the endless boundaries of space, time and the six dimension of space we are. So the sun is always trying to pull the earth back into itself, because our sun is a very small part of the big bang, the number one sun. The earth came from very small parts of the number one sun when it blew up. So when the earth is going farther away from the sun, the sun is pulling the earth back to it's self, and the light, the heat of the sun, warms up the earth, and we get to a point when the sun pulls the earth back again, to start the cycle all over again, fall, winter, spring, and summer. Summer happens, because the sun is slowing the earth down, as we go through our orbit. For they do show it wrong in there obit, because spring is where summer should be, spring happens when the earth just starts moving away from the sun out into it's orbit.

I reckon that two sentences are incorrect on the following website (URL) http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2011/12/the-earth-is-hottest-when-it-is-furthest-from-the-sun-on-its-orbit-not-when-it-is-closest/: The date of the period where the Earth is furthest away from the sun is called Summer Solstice. The date at which the Earth is closest to the sun, is called Winter Solstice.
The following would be correct: When or where the Earth is furthest away from the sun is called aphelion. When or where the Earth is closest to the sun, is called perihelion.
[Please note: A solstice is an astronomical event that occurs twice each year (in June and December) when the Sun reaches its highest or lowest excursion relative to the celestial equator on the celestial sphere].
TMy name is Pierre,
I have been searching for realistic distances between the earth and sun, not only at Aphelion, Perihelion, Vernal Equinox, Automn Equinox, Summer Solistice and Winter Solistice, but also all the months of the year, if this is Possible.
I would be very interested to see the distance calculated in the past 50 years.
I was only able to find projected distances.
The earth travels at 66,627 mph calculated with basic geometry in a Circular motion around the sun and we know that's not the case.
I want Ellipse motion the real deal.
There's one thing I need to point out, the Sun has passed 5 billion years life span, our sun is slowly dying and I need to see when it will start or has it already started.
The Sun's light is produced by fusion in the Sun's core. Hydrogen atoms combine to produce helium and light. The light is produced because the mass of a helium atom is slightly smaller than the mass of the four hydrogen atoms that formed it.
As Einstein first pointed out, mass and energy can transform into each other, so the loss of mass means a gain of energy in the form of light. The light radiates from the Sun, warming our Earth, but that also means over time the Sun loses mass. The Sun consumes mass to produce light.
As the Sun loses mass its gravitational pull on the planets weakens slightly. The Sun can't hold the planets as strongly as it used to, so the planets drift a bit further away from the Sun.
There have been some studies that Using radar telemetry but the result isn't particularly strong and the bounce radio signals, it's difficult to do it precisely enough to determine the Sun's changing mass.
At least that's the theory
So who can help me?

Redundant laws restrict homegrown competitiveness
Author: Mitch Fifield
Publication: The Australian, page 23
MITCH FIFIELD
The way Australians consume their news and entertainment has changed forever.
This is overwhelmingly a good thing, but if our laws don't keep pace then Australian jobs and local content are in peril.
Take a moment as you read this to reflect on the shifts in technology that have driven massive changes in behaviour and consumer choices.
There's a good chance you are reading this on a smartphone or tablet as you commute, or on your desktop computer at work. Later today you might catch up on a show you missed last night before switching over to binge-watch a series on Stan or Netflix.
You are not alone. About half of Australians now use online sources and social media as their main source of news. There are nearly two million Netflix subscribers.
During the Rio Olympics, so many Australians were using their mobiles to stream the Boomers vs Dream Team men's basketball game on August 11 that Seven's Olympics app ac-counted for 25 per cent of Telstra's entire mobile network traffic.
There is no doubt that these shifts have been fantastic for consumers. We have more choice and variety in our news and entertainment options than ever before.
And as our mobile networks continue to improve and fast broadband is made available to all Australians through the rollout of the NBN, these choices will only multiply.
But there have been material consequences for traditional media companies.
In just five years, newspapers have seen their advertising share fall from 30 per cent to just 13 per cent while on-line advertising has grown from 18 per cent to more than 42 per cent. The share prices of some broadcasters have more than halved.
We have all seen the consequences of this with our own eyes. Newspapers and television net-works have been forced to cut costs and hundreds of Australians, including many journalists, have lost their jobs.
This should be cause for concern for all Australians, given that a vibrant and independent media sector is a vital component of our democracy. Traditional media companies have a responsibility to innovate and adapt to this changing environment.
But government must also level the playing field by removing redundant laws that restrict Australian companies and not their international competitors.
The starting point should be to recognise the existence of the internet. Our current media laws were born in the 1980s in a pre-internet, pre-smartphone world.
They deal with only printed newspapers, broadcast television and radio. So while a foreign company like Google can offer you written content, video and audio — with virtually no restrictions — Australian companies cannot do the same.
The diversity and choice of news is now greater than ever be-fore, and some of these laws are redundant.
Worse than that, they threaten the very diversity they were designed to protect. If some local media companies fail, as they have openly warned us they will if we do not make the necessary changes, the result will be less local content, less diversity and fewer local jobs.
We must provide local media companies with more freedom to join with other outlets and to operate more efficiently. It's now be-
come apparent that these vital reforms will need to be delivered by the Turnbull government in co-operation with t he Senate crossbenchers, after Labor made a decision to oppose the full policy package.
In this changed landscape, it's sad to see some Labor politicians, from the comfort of Canberra, telling Australian media business-es they must continue to operate as i f we are stuck in the 1980s.
Bill Shorten needs to move on from the 80s. In 2016, Kylie Minogue no longer lives on Ramsay Street and shoulder pads are only worn by gridiron players.
Labor says it is opposed to our media law reform legislation be-cause it is "narrow". Its alternative is to do even less.
In May, it said it was "cognisant of the material impact that further delay to media reform will have on regional programming".
With the election out of the way, Labor has abandoned Australia's media industry and risks sending hundreds of jobs on to the scrapheap. The Turnbull government is determined to bring our media laws into the 21st century to reflect the world we live in.
Mitch Fifield is the Minister for Communications.

Q: html input in razor view i have id and name attributes with them how to get their value in controller Previously I was using @html.EditorFor(model=>model.Degree_name) but now I want to create dynamic forms as many times as the user clicks on add more button. So, I did that using html input controls and using javascript now my issue is I want to get the values which I insert into these textboxes in my controller. Previously I was passing model object in my controller which was working fine but now as my input controls are not model binded so how to get their values in controller using model object?
Previous code:
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.educations.School, new { htmlAttributes = new { placeholder = "Enter School Name", @class = "form-control" } })
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.educations.School, "", new { @class = "text-danger" })

New Code:
<input  name="School" id="School" type="text" value="" placeholder="Enter School Name" class="form-control" />

My controller method is below:
public ActionResult Create(Registration registration, HttpPostedFileBase upload,FacultyViewModel vm)

facultyViewModel was getting values previously.

A: From what it sounds you want to get a list of your model FacultyViewModel as a parameter. Change controller method signature to one below so vm is a collection of FacultyViewModels.
Controller
public ActionResult create(Registration registration, HttpPostedFileBase upload,
                           List<FacultyViewModel> vm)
{

}

To have list of models passed to the controller parameter the html needs to look like this where every time you click add it adds the input tags with incremented index in name attribute.
<input name="FacultyViewModel[0].educations.School" type="text" />
<input name="FacultyViewModel[0].educations.Degree_Title" type="text"/>

<input name="FacultyViewModel[1].educations.School" type="text" />
<input name="FacultyViewModel[1].educations.Degree_Title" type="text" />

<input name="FacultyViewModel[2].educations.School" type="text" />
<input name="FacultyViewModel[2].educations.Degree_Title" type="text" />

Tested with what everything below.
Controller
public ActionResult postTest(List<Test> test)
{
    //I set break point here to view list contents
}

cshtml

    @using (Html.BeginForm("postTest", "Admin", FormMethod.Post, new { @class = "myForm", @id = "CreatePostForm", enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
    {
        <input type="text" name="Test[0].school" />
        <input type="text" name="Test[0].degree" />

        <input type="text" name="Test[1].school" />
        <input type="text" name="Test[1].degree" />

            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-dark">Post</button>

    }

Your class FacultyViewModel needs to have a parameterless constructor.
Test Class
public class Test
{
    public Test(string s, string d)
    {
        this.School = s;
        this.Degree = d;
    }

    public Test()
    {
    }

    public string School { get; set; }
    public string Degree { get; set; }
}

Being embroiled in a legal dispute is one of the most stressful situations people will face, and having an experienced advocate to help them navigate the justice system can make all the difference, says Toronto civil litigator Richard Shekter. For individuals and businesses, legal disputes can be complex, time-consuming and costly, and everyone deserves an advocate who can walk them through the process, says Shekter, a partner with Shekter Sychtenberg LLP, a Bay Street litigation law firm. "The most effective advocates are fierce and have a combination of brilliance, compassion and experience," he tells AdvocateDaily.com. Over the past 30 years, he has worked on a number of leading cases in criminal, civil, health, personal injury, corporate, medical malpractice, employment law, and administrative litigation.

What you should do with Climate Change
April 21, 2020 blogadmin
Now, a lot is said and written about global warming. Virtually every day you can find new hypotheses that refute the old ones. Our company is constantly afraid of everything we can expect as time goes by. Many statements and articles openly contradict each other, misleading us. For all, global warming is becoming a 'global confusion' and some have completely lost interest in the matter of climate change.
Global warming could be the gradual rise in the common annual surface temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans as a result of various reasons (rise in the concentration of greenhouse gasses in the Earth's atmosphere, changes in solar or volcanic activity, etc.). Very often, people utilize the phrase 'greenhouse effect' as a synonym of global warming, however, there is a slight difference between these concepts. The greenhouse effect is an increase in average annual surface temperature of this Earth's atmosphere and oceans due to the rise in the planet earth's atmosphere concentrations of greenhouse gasses (carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, etc.). These gasses perform the role of this film or perhaps the glass of greenhouses, they freely let the sun rays to the Earth's surface and retain heat which is leaving our planet's atmosphere. The increase in temperature creates favorable conditions for disease development, supported not merely by high temperature and humidity but in addition by the expansion of this habitat of several animals – vectors of diseases. By the middle of this 21st century, it is expected that the incidence of malaria will increase by 60% (Nabi and Qader, 2009). Increased development of the microflora in addition to lack of clean drinking tap water will promote the rise of infectious intestinal diseases. The proliferation of microorganisms in the air can raise the incidence of asthma, allergies and differing respiratory diseases.

As a result of global climate changes, the second half century will be the last in the life of many species of living organisms. Polar bears, walruses, and seals are generally deprived of an important element of their habitat – Arctic sea ice (Urban, 2015). The increase in average annual temperature of this surface layer of this atmosphere is likely to be felt stronger over the continents than over the oceans. This can cause a radical restructuring of this natural zones of this continents. The displacement of a number of areas in the Arctic and Antarctic latitudes is already visible now.
The permafrost zone has shifted northward for hundreds of kilometers. Some scholars argue that due to the rapid melting of permafrost and increase of this level of World ocean, in recent years, the Arctic ocean occurs on land with the average speed of 3-6 meters over the summer. Are you aware that Arctic Islands and capes, high icy rocks collapse and are absorbed by the sea in the warm period of the year at a rate of 20-30 meters. The whole Arctic Islands have completely disappeared.
As a result, the winters is likely to be less severe. It is expected that by 2060, the average temperature in will alter for 5 degrees.
Techniques to Prevent Global Warming
It is believed that folks as time goes by will try to make the Earth's climate in order. Only time will tell how successful might it be. If mankind does not succeed, so we try not to change his way of living, the Homo sapiens species will follow the fate of this dinosaurs.
Advanced minds already think on how to reverse the process of global warming. They feature original techniques to prevent global warming such given that breeding of brand new kinds of plants and trees, the leaves of which may have a higher albedo, painting roofs white, installing mirrors in earth orbit, glaciers shelter from the sunlight, etc. Plenty of effort is used on replacing conventional kinds of energy on the basis of the combustion of carbon materials on nontraditional, such as the production of solar panels, wind turbines, construction of TPP (tidal power plants), hydropower, nuclear power plants. They feature original, non-traditional types of obtaining energy such as the usage of heat of human bodies for space heating, the usage sunlight to avoid ice on roads, in addition to several others. Energy hunger and fear of the global warming does amazing what to the human brain. New and original ideas are born virtually every day.
Not enough attention is paid to the rational usage of energy.
To reduce CO2 emissions, engineers have introduced the engines with improved efficiency, hybrid, and electro cars.
In future, it is planned to cover great awareness of the capture of greenhouse gases in the production of electricity, in addition to directly from the atmosphere through the disposal of plant organisms, using ingenious artificial trees, injection of carbon dioxide on the multi-kilometer depth of this ocean where it will probably dissolve in the water column. Most of these techniques to 'neutralize' CO2 have become expensive. Currently, the expense of capturing one ton of CO2 is approximately 100-300 dollars that exceed the market cost of a huge amount of oil, but when you consider that burning of just one ton of oil forms approximately three a great deal of CO2, means of binding carbon dioxide are not yet relevant. Previously proposed methods of carbon sequestration through tree planting invalidate the fact that a lot of of this carbon in forest fires and decomposition of organic matter are released back in the atmosphere.
Special attention is paid to the development of legislative regulations aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Currently, many countries had adopted the framework Convention of UN on climate change (1992) in addition to Kyoto Protocol (1999). The latter was not ratified by several countries, which account fully for the majority of CO2 emissions. So, the usa accounts for about 40% of all of the emissions (in recent time, China has overtaken the usa in terms of CO2 emissions). Unfortunately, people will put their very own well-being in the forefront, so we should not really expect significant progress in addressing issues of global warming.
DAVID WALLACE-WELLS' recent climate change essay in The New York Times, published as part of the publicity for his new book 'The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming,' is, sadly, like plenty of writing on climate change these days: It really is right in regards to the risk, but wrong about how precisely it tries to accomplish the critical goal of raising public concern. Like other essays that have sounded the alarms on global warming — pieces by Bill McKibben, James Hansen, and George Monbiot one thinks of — Wallace-Wells' offers a straightforward message: I'm scared. People must be scared. Here are the facts. You need to be scared too.
To be certain, Wallace-Wells and these other writers are thoughtful, intelligent, and well-informed people. And that's the way in which they try to raise concern: with thought, intelligence, and information, couched in the most dramatic terms in the grandest possible scale. Wallace-Wells invokes sweeping concepts like 'planet-warming,' 'human history,' and global emissions; remote places such as the Arctic; broad geographical and geopolitical terms like 'coral reefs,' 'ice sheet,' and 'climate refugees'; and distant timeframes like 2030, 2050, and 2100.
It really is a standard approach to communicating risk issues, known as the deficit model: Proceeding from the assumption that your particular audience lacks facts — that is, they own a deficit — everything you need to do is let them have the important points, in clear and eloquent and dramatic enough terms, and you may cause them to feel like you want them to feel, how they as you like it act 5 scene 4 summary ought to feel, how you feel. But research on the practice of risk communication has unearthed that this process usually fails, and sometimes backfires. The deficit model may work fine in physics class, but it's an ineffective way to try to change people's attitudes. Which is because it appeals to reason, and reason is certainly not what drives human behavior.
For over 50 years, the cognitive sciences have amassed a mountainous body of insight into why we think and choose and work as we do. And what they have found is that facts alone are literally meaningless. We interpret every bit of cold objective information through a thick set of affective filters that determine how those facts feel — and just how they feel is really what determines what those facts mean and just how we behave. As 17th century French mathematician and theologian Blaise Pascal observed, 'We know truth, not merely by the reason, but in addition by the heart.'
Yet a sizable segment of this climate change commentariat dismisses these social science findings. Inside the piece for The New York Times, Wallace-Wells mentions a few cognitive biases that are categorized as the rubric of behavioral economics, including optimism bias (things will go better in my situation than the next guy) and status quo bias (it really is easier just to keep things since they are). But he describes them in language that drips with condescension and frustration:
How do we be this deluded? One answer arises from behavioral economics. The scroll of cognitive biases identified by psychologists and fellow travelers over the past half-century can seem, like a social media feed, bottomless. In addition they distort and distend our perception of a changing climate. These optimistic prejudices, prophylactic biases, and emotional reflexes form an entire library of climate delusion.
Moreover, behavioral economics is only one section of what shapes how we feel about risk. Another element of our cognition that has gotten far too little attention, but plays an even more important part in how we feel about climate change, could be the psychology of risk perception. Pioneering research by Paul Slovic, Baruch Fischhoff, Sarah Lichtenstein, and others has identified significantly more than a dozen discrete psychological characteristics that cause us to worry significantly more than we need to about some threats and less than we must about others, like climate change.
As an example, we don't worry the maximum amount of about risks that don't feel personally threatening. Surveys suggest that even people who are alarmed about climate change aren't particularly alarmed in regards to the threat to themselves. The most recent poll by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication unearthed that while 70 percent of Americans believe climate change is occurring, only around 40 percent think 'it will harm me personally.'
We also worry more about risks that threaten us soon than risks that threaten us later. Evolution has endowed us with a risk-alert system designed to have us to tomorrow first — and only then, maybe, do we worry about what comes later. So even those that think climate change is already happening believe, accurately, that the worst is yet to come. Risk communication that talks in regards to the havoc that climate change will wreak in 2030, in 2050, or 'during this century' contributes to this 'we don't really have to bother about it now' feeling.
Risk perception research also implies that we worry less about risky behaviors if those behaviors also carry tangible benefits. Up to now, which has been the outcome for climate change: for many individuals staying in the developed world, the harms of climate change are far more than offset by the modern comforts of a carbon-intensive lifestyle. Even those that put solar panels on their roofs or make lifestyle changes when you look at the name of reducing their carbon footprint often continue with other bad behaviors: shopping and buying unsustainably, flying, having their regular hamburger.
Interestingly Wallace-Wells admits this is even true for him:
I know the science is true, I know the threat is all-encompassing, and I know its effects, should emissions continue unabated, is likely to be terrifying. And yet, whenever I imagine my life three decades from now, or perhaps the life of my daughter five decades from now, i need to admit that I am not imagining some sort of on fire but one similar to the one we have now.
Yet he writes that 'the age of climate panic is here,' and then he expects that delivering all the important points and evidence in alarmist language will somehow move others to see things differently. This is perhaps Wallace-Wells' biggest failure: By dramatizing the important points and suggesting that folks who don't share his level of concern are irrational and delusional, he is a lot more very likely to offend readers than to convince them. Adopting the attitude that 'my feelings are right and yours are wrong' — that 'I am able to see the problem plus one's wrong with you if you can't' — is a surefire way to turn a reader off, not on, to what you want them to trust.
Contrast all this deficit-model climate punditry aided by the effective messaging of this rising youth revolt against climate change. Last August, 16-year-old Swedish student Greta Thunberg skipped school and held a one-person protest outside her country's parliament to demand action on climate change. In the 6 months since, there has been nationwide #FridaysforFuture school walkouts in at the very least nine countries, and more are planned.
Thunberg has spoken to the United Nations in addition to World Economic Forum in Davos, with an in-your-face and from-the-heart message which is about not merely facts but her very real and personal fear:
Adults carry on saying: 'We owe it to the young people to give them hope.' But I don't want your hope… I want you to panic. I want you to feel the fear I feel every day. And then I want you to behave.
By talking to our hearts and not soleley our heads — and by framing the matter with regards to personal and immediate fear of a future that promises more harm than benefit — Thunberg has started an international protest movement.
The lesson is clear. Wallace-Wells' New York Times essay are certain to get a lot of attention among the intelligentsia, but he is climate change informative speech outline not likely to arouse serious new support for action against climate change. Risk communication that acknowledges and respects the emotions and psychology of this people it tries to reach probably will have much larger impact — and that's precisely what the time and effort to combat climate change needs right now.

A few weeks ago, I was invited by Feeling to a ladies' event organized at the Mercedes Lounge during the Zoute Grand Prix. One of the keynote speakers at the event was Professor Elke Geraerts, specialized in Neuropsychology and i.a. postdoctoral fellow at Harvard and lecturer at St Andrews. Elke is also author of the fascinating book The New Mental. Unfortunately the book isn't available in English yet, but I'm sure that this bestseller will be translated soon.
The "New Mental" is exactly the book that we all need. We're currently facing a severe brain crisis, one of the causes of the current burn-out epidemic that affects approx. 10% of the working population. The culprits of the brain crisis are technology and the flexible working system, which makes mental rest valuable and rare.
In order to help us to focus again, Elke gives us an array of tips, the so called "levers for a resilient brain".
There's NOTHING good about multitasking, as shown by recent research. Multitaskers are 40% less productive, while they still think that they're doing more. Apart from the loss of productivity, it's also impossible to process new information consciously and it gives us the impression to lose self control. No need to persuade me personally by the way. I've never been an multitasking fan, so I'm happy that this illusion is finally off the table. But if it makes us so unhappy, why are so many people still doing it? Because a lot of people still believe that they can do it. They're also used to it, so it takes a lot of self control to single-task. But that's a matter of training ourselves and we can do this with small steps described in the book.
Chase elephants first. Don't go after the rabbits.
Setting priorities: that's something we need to learn. Making To Do lists too. We tend to make To Do lists with small tasks that we can easily check off. By the time we get to the tasks that actually matter, we get exhausted. Elke calls these unimportant tasks "the rabbits". The rabbits are hopping around us during the entire day and keep us from "the elephants" at the horizon. The elephants stand for the strategic, long-term tasks. This metaphor comes from the famous oil tycoon Thomas Boone Pickens: " When you are hunting elephants, don't get distracted chasing rabbits." In other words: Firefighting is a stress factor. Quickly handling a question from a co-worker, a phone call, or e-mail, seems useful, but makes us unhappy. Making time for the elephants is crucial.
Research has shown that we're not focused as much as we think we are. For 47% of our time our thoughts are wandering to other things. Apparently this 47% is what our brain needs. So instead of trying to bring the 47% down, we should try to maximize the time when we are working consciously. Elke's advice is to be focused for 30 to 45 minutes and then make time for "boredom". Not to watch YouTube videos or to read an e-mail, but to do real "mind wandering". Doodling is also quite powerful as it eases the mind. These are the ideal moments to be creative.
4. Be out of reach.
Flexible work hours and technology have changed the way we work forever and allow our work to penetrate into our private life (and vice versa). Try to be out of reach from time to time. But not just for your professional activities. Also for your friends on social media. Give yourself a break from the screen. It will allow you to be in the moment and get back to your life.
Elke's advice has been very helpful for me personally: I have changed my daily working schedule based upon her recommendations. Every colleague has a poster with the elephants on the wall and we have the occasional elephant jokes at the office. By the way, our team also uses SCRUM as a technique to be more efficient and agile. How we use Scrum in our weekly team routine will certainly be the topic of one of my following blog posts.
It is a topic that comes up frequently when we coach people who are looking for more energy at work. In my blog posts you can read more about this. The hard part of the theory is as always in the integration and practice.
Looking at some of our clients, I can say honestly that they don't have a choice. So if you want to resolve this matter, it is a group observation together with the management to avoid excessive multi tasking. Only then people can feel in control of their working habits and energy throughout the day.

Chapter 3.Self-Knowledge: Trauma & Childhood
How a Messed up Childhood Affects You in Adulthood
We are, all of us, beautifully crazy or, to put it in gentler terms, fascinatingly unbalanced. Our childhoods, even the apparently benign ones, leave us no option but to be anything else.
As a result of these childhoods, we tend, over most issues, to list – like a sailing yacht in high wind – far too much in one direction or another. We are too timid, or too assertive; too rigid or too accommodating; too focused on material success or excessively lackadaisical. We are obsessively eager around sex or painfully wary and nervous in the face of our own erotic impulses. We are dreamily naive or sourly down to earth; we recoil from risk or embrace it recklessly; we have emerged into adult life determined never to rely on anyone or as desperate for another to complete us; we are overly intellectual or unduly resistant to ideas. The encyclopedia of emotional imbalances is a volume without end. What is certain is that these imbalances come at a huge cost, rendering us less able to exploit our talents and opportunities, less able to lead satisfying lives and a great deal less fun to be around.
Yet, because we are reluctant historians of our emotional pasts, we easily assume that these imbalances aren't things we could ever change; they are fundamentally innate. It's just how we were made. We simply are, in and of ourselves, people who micromanage or can't get much pleasure out of sex, scream a lot when someone contradicts us or run away from lovers who are too kind to us. It may not be easy, but nor is it alterable or up for enquiry.
The truth is likely to be more hopeful – though, in the short term, more challenging. Our imbalances are invariably responses to something that happened in the past. We are a certain way because we were knocked off a more fulfilling trajectory years ago by a primal wound. In the face of a viciously competitive parent, we took refuge in underachievement. Having lived around a parent disgusted by the body, sex became frightening. Surrounded by material unreliability, we had to overachieve around money and social prestige. Hurt by a dismissive parent, we fell into patterns of emotional avoidance. A volatile parent pushed us towards our present meekness and inability to make a fuss. Early overprotectiveness inspired timidity and, around any complex situation, panic attacks. A continually busy, inattentive parent was the catalyst for a personality marked by exhausting attention-seeking behaviour.
There is always a logic and there is always a history.
We can tell that our imbalances date from the past because they reflect the way of thinking and instincts of the children we once were. Without anything pejorative being meant by this, our way of being unbalanced tends towards a fundamental immaturity, bearing the marks of what was once a young person's attempt to grapple with something utterly beyond their capacities.
For example, when they suffer at the hands of an adult, children almost invariably take what happens to them as a reflection of something that must be very wrong with them. If someone humiliates, ignores or hurts them, it must – so it seems – be because they are, in and of themselves, imbecilic, repugnant and worth neglecting. It can take many years, and a lot of patient inner exploration, to reach an initially less plausible conclusion: that the hurt was essentially undeserved and that there were inevitably a lot of other things going on, off-stage, in the raging adult's interior life for which the child was entirely blameless.
Similarly, because children cannot easily leave an offending situation, they are prey to powerful, limitless longings to fix, the broken person they so completely depend on. It becomes, in the infantile imagination, the child's responsibility to mend all the anger, addiction or sadness of the grown-up they adore. It may be the work of decades to develop an adult power to feel sad about, rather than eternally responsible for, those we cannot change.
Communication patterns are beset by comparable childhood legacies. When something is very wrong, children have no innate capacity to explain their cause. They lack the confidence, poise and verbal dexterity to get their points across with the calm and authority required. They tend to dramatic overreactions instead, insisting, nagging, exploding, screaming. Or else excessive under-reactions: sulking, sullen silence, and avoidance. We may be well into middle-age before we can shed our first impulses to explode at or flee from those who misunderstand our needs and more carefully and serenely try to explain them instead.
It's another feature of the emotional wounds of childhood that they tend to provoke what are in effect large-scale generalisations. Our wounds may have occurred in highly individual contexts: with one particular adult who hit their particular partner late at night in one particular terraced house in one town in the north. Or the wound may have been caused by one specific parent who responded with intense contempt after a specific job loss from one specific factory. But these events give rise to expectations of other people and life more broadly. We grow to expect that everyone will turn violent, that every partner may turn on us and every money problem will unleash disaster. The character traits and mentalities that were formed in response to one or two central actors of childhood become our habitual templates for interpreting pretty much anyone. For example, the always jokey and slightly manic way of being that we evolved so as to keep a depressed, listless mother engaged becomes our second nature. Even when she is long gone, we remain people who need to shine at every meeting, who require a partner to be continually focused on us and who cannot listen to negative or dispiriting information of any kind.
Similarly, a childhood craving to pacify and never bother two squabbling unhappy parents can far outlast our actual presence in their company. We may decades later still harbour a powerful desire to evade all confrontation, even though the original source of our hesitancy has long disappeared and such avoidance bears a heavy price.
We are living the wide-open present through the narrow drama of the past. We suffer because we are, at huge cost, too loyal to the early difficult years. We should, where we can, dare to leave home.

Use semicolons to improve sentence structure; use them to look smarter. This lesson plan will help you learn or teach when to use semicolons.
I had mastered teaching Greek and Latin Roots. I had created some of the best Romeo and Juliet lesson plans ever. I had taught students how to use commas. I felt good. Then I read their essays and realized they had no idea when to use a semicolon. I failed to teach them semicolon rules. I needed to punish myself, so I strapped a 12-volt battery to my eyelids, connected it to a car and awaited the pain. The shock knocked me out. When I awoke, there stood a giant, bearded semicolon, explaining to me how to explain semicolon rules. He then whacked me on the head with a stapler and knocked me out again.
When I awoke, a "when to use semicolons" lesson plan rested on my desk. Unfortunately, it was the principal's car battery I had connected to my eyelids and he fired me the next morning. I never got to use my lesson plan.
Teaching using semicolons correctly satisfies the following common core standards. This will impress your administrator, but bore your students. I recommend simplifying the language when you write the objective(s) on the board.
L.9-10.2a Use a semicolon (and perhaps a conjunctive adverb) to link two or more closely related independent clauses.
Use semicolons in the following ways.
1. To separate items in a series if any of the items contains a comma.
Sharks love to eat shrimp, whales, and surfers; swim in the open ocean; and star in movies depicting blood, gore, and parades down main street.
2. To separate independent clauses joined by a conjunction if either of the independent clauses contains a comma.
I got lost outside of Denver last year; I got yelled at by my wife, laughed at by my son, and beat up by the paper boy.
3. To join two related independent clauses if no conjunction is used.
Some invest in a 401 (k); others invest in a Roth IRA.
4. Before a conjunctive adverb (however, therefore, hence, consequently), or a parenthetical expression, that joins the clauses of a compound sentence.
No one with common sense would actually cascade (hiking down frozen waterfalls); therefore, a more correct description would be canyoning with only a rope used to hang yourself after you plummet thirty feet and lie in pain with a broken back on the canyon floor with no hope of rescue.
1. Prepare large strips of paper with the following: 8 semicolons, 6 periods, 8 commas, 2 and, 1 however.
2. Write the following model sentences or come up with ones of your own. It's best to use sentences from literary works you've taught or sentences about topics of interest. Cut the sentences or phrases into strips. You may need tape or magnets.
Instruct students to copy the rules in their notebook.
Hand out the sentence strips. These are the ones you made in the preparation part of the lesson.
Instruct the possessors of two complete sentences to place them on the board side by side.
Discuss ways to combine sentences.
Discuss how to use a semicolon and instruct the student with a semicolon to place it in the appropriate spot.
Remove the two sentences and continue with the other semicolon rules, asking individual students to place their sentence, word, or punctuation in the appropriate spot.
The final result should look like this: Farm animals are adored by children; young ones look to them for comfort and love. Farm animals possess power and influence; however, they abuse this trust by breaking fences and tearing up lawns. Disobedient animals include pigs, sloppy critters who stink up the yard; sheep, incessant blabbers; and bulls, fierce rib breakers.
This lesson was inspired by Bessie the Cow and Mini Lessons for Revision by Susan Geye, 1997, Absey & Co. Spring, TX.

I've been working with someone on creating custom MIDI controllers for use in Ableton and thought I'd share ideas. The most flexible way to send MIDI in Reaktor 5 is to use the Channel Message module.
Val: self explanatory. This is where you send the value of the message you want to transmit. By default the range is zero to one, but you can change this in the module properties.
Nr: In this case, the number of the MIDI CC to transmit.
Ch: The MIDI channel to transmit on. This overrides the settings of the instrument containing the module, but you can go into the module properties and tell it "always use instrument's send channel".
St: Status – this determines what kind of message will be sent. We're sending type 3 which is a MIDI controller message. You can also send note on/off information, pitch bend, and so forth.
The tricky bit: this module only sends data when it receives events at the St input. When it receives an event there, it transmits whatever values are at its other inputs. That's why I'm using the order and value modules, to ensure that every control change is followed by an event with the value "3" at St. Hover over St and the other ports for hints on what values they accept and what the values mean.
I've deliberately kept the structure as simple as possible for clarity… some enhancements you might make are to add panel controls to set the MIDI channel and CC#, and to rig up a more interesting event source than a knob. How about the LFO module? Try it but keep in mind the default range of the LFO is -1 to +1, not 0 to 1.

Rhapsody in Dreams (Author Interview)
www.amazon.com/dp/B07V9PBRB8/
Rhapsody in Dreams looks like a complex and interesting story. Any plans to turn it into a series?
No. This story is complete.
How did you come up with the story in Rhapsody in Dreams?
This story is a result of my fascination with the subject of human memory and dreams. Being a musician and a history buff, I knew that my story could be set only is my favorite city of St. Augustine, the Oldest City, and that one of my heroes must be a pianist.
What will readers get out of your book?
That love is eternal, that each of us has a very unique and special purpose on this planet, and that family is everything
What inspired you when writing Rhapsody in Dreams?
Music and my family
When did you decide to become a writer?
I always wanted to write. I wrote short stories, plays and poetry since I was in elementary school.
But I didn't consciously decided to become a writer: it kind of happened quite naturally after I dreamed about red-haired girl with a baby in a middle of the airport. She was scared and lost; behind her was a banner "Welcome to the United States of America." And I knew her name, and her story, and I wanted to write it down. That's how my first story, my Rostoff trilogy "Once & Forever" was 'born'.
When writing Rhapsody in Dreams did anything stand out as particularly challenging?
Nothing comes to mind. I enjoyed writing this story.
What do you like to do when not writing?
Reading and listening to music. Literature and music are my two great passions in life.

Q: Why are 65W and 90W common amongst laptop power supplies? I have seen Dell 130W, Lenovo 120W, some 230W or 210W gaming laptops, etc. . These are different numbers.
But I have seen both 65W and 90W power supplies from Lenovo (65W 20V 3,25A with rounded DC connector (built 2007) and Lenovo's proprietary rectangular DC connector (built 2015)) and Dell (65W 19,5V 3,34A) and HP (65W 19,5V 3,34A) and Asus (65W 19V 3,43A). A quick internet search suggests that Acer also uses 65W 19V 3,43A known from Asus.I have seen 90W power supplies from  Lenovo (20V) and Dell (19,5V) as well. The other manufacturers have power supplies at that wattage as well, very likely.
The wattage is the same, while the voltages are slightly different. Why that is, that's a different question, but I am not sure, whether it is sufficiently relevant for Electronics.StackExchange.com. If it is, please let me know.

Why are 65W and 90W power supplies common amongst different manufacturers of middle-end laptops?
Why not 60W, 70W instead of 65W? Why not 100W instead of 90W?Manufacturers use different power connectors, yet the same wattage at a very similar voltage.
(There is nothing wrong with 65W and 90W, I am just wondering why different manufacturers share specifically 65W and 90W. If it is an industry standard, how exactly was it specified?)


You have a web based mail system that you want to provide auto-correction on spell checking. The spell checking system needs to not only correct for common words, but needs to account for proper names of places and obscure languages. Most importantly, privacy considerations need to be taken into account so as not to store or leak one individual's spelling errors. How do you do it?
Most intelligent spell checkers do so by recording a word and then changes to that word. If lots of people make the same changes, chances are it's because of a typographical error or spelling error. You can then suggest that as a correction to others who type in the original potentially misspelled word. How do you do that without storing the misspelled word or the correction unless you have it in it's aggregate form?
Take the user's email and modulo it with 256 (1 byte). That essentially puts everybody into one of 256 buckets. The reason will be clear later.
If the user does not change the word, do nothing.
If the user makes a correction, take the original and the correction and use M-of-N secret splitting to split that information into N parts. For this particular exercise, you'll split the information into 256 parts. You'll then take the z-th part (z being determined by the value of the user's email moduloed 256 above) and send that back to the server. In and of itself, that information does nothing.
However, now once you have M parts, the server can reconstruct the word and the original and make it available for others to autocorrect. When will this happen? Well the first person provides the first part, the next person to send in a correct won't necessarily provide the second part. They have a 1/256 chance of providing the same part at the first person. So how many people do you need to get M parts? It comes down to probability. You obviously need at least M people but M people doesn't guarantee you have M different parts. By adjusting M, the administrator could set a threshold of how many people you would need to have a certain percentage chance of collecting the parts. For example, 30 people gave you a 90% chance and 50 people gave you a 95% chance and 100 people gave you a 99% chance. Once the information is revealed, you're confident its based on aggregate errors, not one person's.
Now, when a user types in an email, after each word, the system can calculate the 3 byte compression and send that out to the server. If the server finds any matches, it returns the list of corrections (which may be only a few times long or a hundred items). The client side then compares the word against the corrections and determines those that are likely and those that are not (i.e. "hapyy" to "corrugated" would not be a reasonable match but it would be to "happy" even though say hapyy and corugated both fall in the same 3 byte bucket).
So here you have a solution which only reveals information in the aggregate and gives some level of security so the server doesn't know what the person is typing.


MADRID: Arsene Wenger was left devastated by Arsenal's Europa League defeat to Atletico Madrid on Thursday but made a staunch defense of midfielder Mesut Ozil.
Diego Costa's strike proved decisive at the Wanda Metropolitano where a 1-0 victory secured Atletico a 2-1 win on aggregate and a place in the final against Marseille.
"I'm very sad tonight," Wenger said. "Unfortunately you have to go through that — the game can be very cruel, sometimes very nice, but the suffering is very strong tonight.
Keown, however, was less optimistic and reserved a particularly harsh assessment for Ozil.
"He wasn't fit to wear the shirt tonight," Keown told BT Sport. "I've seen this a lot this season and it needs to be said. He needs to be dug out. We expect better from him.
When Keown's comments were put to Wenger, he said: "I don't agree with that. You will see that he gave a lot. It was a difficult team, physically very intense.
Costa was the star of the show, providing the tenacity and killer instinct Arsenal so desperately lacked.


Youth can enroll in 4-H between October 1 -May 1 each year.
Re-Enrollment forms and a $10.00 enrollment fee are due to the Extension Office by December 31st.
Re-enrollments forms received after December 31st will require $50.00 membership dues.
No re-enrollment forms will be accepted after February 1st.
Horse and dog projects have their own forms. Please see below.
4-H age is always calculated using October 1 of the current 4-H year. For example, if a 4-H member turns 14 on December 15, their 4-H age is still 13 years old until the next 4-H year.
Cloverbud: 4-H members 5-8 years old (as of October 1). This is the only option for members under 8 years old. It is a non-competitive educational project and is the only project they can enroll.
4-H membership is open to all eligible youth. Montana State University Extension does not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and marital and family status.

Refining the phylum Chlorobi by resolving the phylogeny and metabolic potential of the representative of a deeply branching, uncultivated lineage
Jennifer Hiras, Yu Wei Wu, Stephanie A. Eichorst, Blake A. Simmons, Steven W. Singer
Recent studies have expanded the phylum Chlorobi, demonstrating that the green sulfur bacteria (GSB), the original cultured representatives of the phylum, are a part of a broader lineage whose members have more diverse metabolic capabilities that overlap with members of the phylum Bacteroidetes. The 16S rRNA gene of an uncultivated clone, OPB56, distantly related to the phyla Chlorobi and Bacteroidetes, was recovered from Obsidian Pool in Yellowstone National Park; however, the detailed phylogeny and function of OPB56 and related clones have remained unknown. Culturing of thermophilic bacterial consortia from compost by adaptation to grow on ionic-liquid pretreated switchgrass provided a consortium in which one of the most abundant members, NICIL-2, clustered with OPB56-related clones. Phylogenetic analysis using the full-length 16S rRNA gene from NICIL-2 demonstrated that it was part of a monophyletic clade, referred to as OPB56, distinct from the Bacteroidetes and Chlorobi. A near complete draft genome (>95% complete) was recovered from metagenomic data from the culture adapted to grow on ionic-liquid pretreated switchgrass using an automated binning algorithm, and this genome was used for marker gene-based phylogenetic analysis and metabolic reconstruction. Six additional genomes related to NICIL-2 were reconstructed from metagenomic data sets obtained from thermal springs at Yellowstone National Park and Nevada Great Boiling Spring. In contrast to the 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic analysis, protein phylogenetic analysis was most consistent with the clustering of the Chlorobea, Ignavibacteria and OPB56 into a single phylum level clade. Metabolic reconstruction of NICIL-2 demonstrated a close linkage with the class Ignavibacteria and the family Rhodothermaceae, a deeply branching Bacteroidetes lineage. The combined phylogenetic and functional analysis of the NICIL-2 genome has refined the membership in the phylum Chlorobi and emphasized the close evolutionary and metabolic relationship between the phyla Chlorobi and the Bacteroidetes.
