BALTIMORE (WJZ) — The impact of Monday's powerful rain storm continues to be felt across Baltimore County on Tuesday.
Many are starting to clean up after flash floods soaked the region. It took just 20 minutes for water to rise and wash out area roads and some businesses.
WJZ's Kimberly Eiten says people at Henry's Auto Service in Owings Mills have been there since 2 a.m. cleaning up.
Sky Eye Chopper 13 was above the business Monday evening, where cars were up to their headlights in murky water that had risen above the banks of the Gwynns Falls.
Puddles and problems are all that's left after flash flooding soaked a stretch of Reisterstown Road.
"Everything is basically gone now, so it's trying to pick up the pieces to try to start over," said auto shop owner Aida Caballero.
Caballero says picking up the pieces means picking a new location for her family business.
A bright red sticker marking their water damaged building is no longer safe.
So employees work outside. deciding what to save and what to scrap.
"Everything that we have, work hard for, and all of our savings put into it, and now we're at a standstill," Caballero said.
And business owners say they had no warning. In just a matter of minutes, the water became so powerful, it overflowed the banks and came crashing the fence.
As first responders rushed to help, WJZ viewers hit record. Capturing video of stranded drivers in Reisterstown, heavy hail in Owings Mills, and roadways turned into waterways all over.
In Montgomery County, heavy rain forced drivers to hit the brakes and reroute.
A rush of water across the state now leaving only a mud crusted mess.
There have been no reported injuries from Monday's storms. But there was a lot of damage that business owners haven't put a price tag on yet.
Business owners say they plan to approach Baltimore County officials to talk about how to prevent future flooding in the same areas.

Because I stayed awake so late I became hungry after dinner, so I had a midnight snack of popcorn (7).
came over for some chicken chili (12) I made following *this recipe*.
Aubrey brought the cornbread (5) and SF / FF banana pudding with vanilla wafers for dessert (8).
Enjoyed with a glass of wine (4).
Eric is a super handyman and helped Dan hang the chandelier in Ina's nursery, which had previously been some wires hanging from the ceiling. Thanks Eric - for my sanity and Ina's safety!
It was a wonderful night of baby noises, motherhood advice giving, and Nerf gun wars.
I was able to enjoy the same lunch I had yesterday - lentils and roasted butternut squash (8) with my grandma and cousin who came to pay Ina Mae a visit and gave me a chance to do a little grocery shopping.
Why, oh why, did I buy these?
I love the weekend because I can do my morning chores "guilt-free" while Dan and Ina cuddle. Usually I put her in her rocker while I run around the house like a crazy woman.
Today I have an outdoor walk / jog planned, a baby shower, and a relaxing evening in. I hope you have a wonderful Saturday!

2018 // The John Thornton Award: Mike MacDonald
The John Thornton Award was presented on April 20, 2018 at the 17th Biennial Convention in Philadelphia to Mike MacDonald.
MacDonald in 2018 completed his fourth and final term as Region X Vice President. He was elected to this position in 2006. His leadership, vision, and determination helped lead the effort to organize the Engineers and Architects Bargaining Unit back in 1997. It was the start of a large-scale expansion of NATCA's growth and strengthening into an even more powerful union. The FAA engineers did not have a voice before then. They knew NATCA could provide the resources needed to make their opinions heard. The E&A bargaining unit now has more than 1,300 employees. It's the largest component of NATCA's Region X and remains one of NATCA's greatest organizing success stories.
In 1992, MacDonald was hired as a civil engineer in the FAA's Airway Facilities Division in the New England Region. Before taking on the NATCA RVP role, Mike worked for many years supporting automation in enroute and terminal facilities as well as center power upgrades and ACEPS battery issues. He has served in many capacities in his career, including as an Equal Employment Opportunity counselor to assist victims of discrimination in the workplace. He has also served as a board member and president of the Federal Employees Child Care of Nashua. He was president of NATCA Local Engineers New England (ENE) and he was the NATCA representative on both the Career Level Descriptor (CLD) and Promotion Criteria Workgroups.
MacDonald also served as a NATCA arbitration advocate, alternate RVP for Region X, and a member of the 2006 Engineers and Architects Contract Team. In addition, he has served as a member of the Information Technology Committee.

A New Project Called Handshake Wants to Decentralize DNS, Says It's Unlike Previous Attempts
By CircleID Reporter
June 06, 2019, 9:48 am PST
An entity called the Handshake Network claims its newly developed open source project offers advantages over the traditional naming and signature systems. Using blockchain technology, Handsahke says it can avoid the security vulnerabilities of conventional DNS, including DDoS attacks on name servers and cache. While this is now exactly a novel idea, Steven McKie, a developer, and investor for Handshake, says unlike previous attempts that tried to replace DNS, this effort is meant to work with the existing DNS. "Handshake can work with the existing TLDs (e.g., com, net, org) to ensure existing names continue to work as expected," says the website. "Handshake manages this by deprecating the need for the root DNS servers. Right now, anyone can point existing TLDs towards their respective nameservers. Eventually, we hope to provide the names currently associated with TLDs using Handshake's core protocols and are actively working to facilitate that. In addition to this, major privacy and security-focused TLDs such as onion are given first-class support within the Handshake system."

Yet another alternate root By Robert Martin-Legene – Jun 14, 2019 8:32 am PST
This smells like yet another alternate root.
I think this project would easier have a chance of success if it tried to solve DNS problems in general (for any zone name and not just for the root zone).
While many do not like ICANN, it is the only multi-stakeholder model that we currently have.
Ignoring ICANN will probably make it difficult for a project to gain traction.

National 'Takeout Day' encourages Canadians to support our food-service industry
An estimated 800,000 jobs in Canada's foodservice sector have already been lost due to the COVID-19 crisis, and now a national movement is afoot to support the industry.
Apr 8, 2020 3:38 PM By: Lindsay William-Ross
A national "Takeout Day" has been declared, in the hopes that Canadians who are able to do so order out a meal on Wednesdays for take-out or delivery from their favourite local restaurants.
The first official "Takeout Day" will be Wednesday, April 15.
To help celebrate the first Takeout Day, Canadians can tune into an epic online variety show streamed on Facebook via Canada's Great Kitchen Party – Home Edition starting at 8 p.m. EST that will feature musical entertainment from people like Jim Cuddy, Alan Doyle, Ed Robertson, Barney Bentall and Tom Cochrane - the full line-up will be announced soon.
Restaurants are hurting right now in B.C. and across the country. While some are closing doors temporarily, others are making the move permanent, citing the financial impossibilities of being able to return once restrictions are lifted.
Some have soldiered on, turning to take-out meals as the only viable way to keep product moving in from suppliers and customers fed.
But the survival of your favourite local restaurants is not guaranteed.
Here are a few chefs from across the nation explaining why a movement like Takeout Day can be a lifeline to Canada's restaurants:
"#TakeoutDay aims to save more than just businesses - whether it's the local mom and pops eatery or the popular restaurant that made it onto top dining lists. Our robust and diverse culinary scene is an integral part Canada's unique identity and we stand to lose an important part of our culture and heritage if we don't do our part," says Pay Chen, a popular food opinion leader and an ambassador for Canada Takeout.
You may have already thought of a few places you could get a take-out meal next Wednesday - and the Wednesday after that - but if you're not sure who's up and running and what they have on offer, there are some great resources available right now. You can use the Restaurant Finder map on Canada Takeout's site, or you can use a nation-wide portal like Breaking Bread.
Canada Takeout Day
When: Wednesdays, starting April 15
Where: Your home, with food picked up or delivered from a local restaurant

Eversource Works to Restore Power After Strong Storms
Published February 26, 2016 • Updated on February 26, 2016 at 3:00 pm
Power was out for thousands of houses and businesses early Thursday morning after a series of rare strong February thunderstorms came through. The outages are down to around 5,100 as of 3 p.m. on Friday and Eversource plans to have most power restored by late tonight.
Eversource has more than 700 line and tree crews working and said they restored power to more than 123,000 customers. Working with Eversource crews in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, as well as contractors from New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Canada, they have replaced almost 100 broken poles, 30,000 feet of overhead line and removed more than 70 large trees.
A mobile resource center has been dispatching crews and Eversource has a warehouse on wheels with equipment needed to make repairs.
The electrical system sustained significant damage and crews are working as quickly and safely as possible to restore power, the company said on Facebook.
"We saw winds that were gusting up to 75 miles per hour. That's near hurricane force winds, and they just took down all trees, limbs, right down on our lines, " Frank Poirot, of Eversource, said.

Officials said there are still dangers after they de-energize a line.
"We relieve that stored energy by carefully cutting the tree and making sure the spring-back doesn't affect any of our employees, or our equipment or our customers' equipment," Karl Douglas, the regional operations manager for Eversource, said.
The power company expects to restore power to most customers by 11:30 p.m.
"We understand the hardship that being without our product causes and we want to make sure that we do our level best to get everybody back on line as soon as possible," Douglas said.
Anyone who sees a downed power line should stay away from it and immediately report it.
Any customers experiencing new power outages should report them to Eversource at 1-800-286-2000, or by using the outage reporting form on the company's website.

At the University of Tasmania, Prof Malpas has been: Director of the University Theme Area, 'Community, Place and Change'; Director of the Buddhist Studies in India Exchange Program; Director of the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Ethics; Head of the School of Philosophy; and a member of the University Planning and Resources Committee. At Murdoch University he was: Chair of the Human Research Ethics Committee; Research Manager and Chair of the School of Humanities Research Committee; Chair and Founder of the Philosophy Programme; and Section Head of the Politics, Philosophy and Sociology Section.
Prof Malpas holds a research position, but has previously taught across all areas of philosophy from ethics to logic, as well as in areas of architecture and geography. He still teaches on an occasional basis. He has also led workshops and given seminars in non-academic contexts to government, business and other groups. Prof Malpas' work is cited in courses on twentieth-century German philosophy, on philosophy of language and hermeneutics, on place and space, on philosophical methodology (especially ideas of the transcendental). He does not teach on a regular basis, but has extensive experience in teaching across a wide range of areas.
Visiting Professor, Department of Philosophy, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden, October-November, 1997.
Over the last five years Prof Malpas has presented invited papers to many university audiences around the world in places including Brazil, Peru, Argentina, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Switzerland, Greece, Korea, and Japan, as well as in Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Within philosophy, Prof Malpas is perhaps best known as one of a small number of philosophers who work across the analytic-continental divide, publishing one of the first books that drew attention to convergences in the thinking of the key twentieth century American philosopher Donald Davidson and the phenomenological and hermeneutic traditions, as exemplified in the work of Heidegger and Gadamer. More broadly, Professor Malpas' work has been characterized by considerable inter-disciplinary engagement, particularly in relation to issues of space and place and he is known as one of the very few philosophers working in this area, and as the author of a distinctive position in the field..
Prof Malpas' current research interests centre on issues of place, including space and place, time and place, memory and place, identity and place, place and community, place and language. He also works on hermeneutics, phenomenology, twentieth-century German thought, American pragmatist thinking, and ethics.
Prof Malpas' work has involved the articulation of the concept of place in close connection with ideas of self and the human, as well as with ideas of the ethical and the political. It has arisen alongside the increasing focus on place across the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences and has contributed to that developing focus. He is one of the few thinkers whose work looks both to the way place functions as a substantive focus of inquiry and as a guide to the methodology of inquiry. The 'philosophical topography' that lies at the centre of his thinking not only involves taking place, topos, as a key concept, but also entails a transformed concept of philosophy itself. As human being is 'topographical', so too is philosophy – thinking, no less than being, is always 'placed'. Much of prof Malpas' work has involved a dialogue with key thinkers from the phenomenological and hermeneutic traditions, and so has equally been significant for the light it has shed on those thinkers. His own 'topological' reading of Heidegger is now seen as a distinctive position within the Heidegger literature that stands apart from, and to some extent in competition with, the other approaches. The focus on place underlies Prof Malpas' work in other areas giving rise to a distinctive approach to ethics that also has consequences for thinking about contemporary culture and society. Prof Malpas has been deeply critical of the rise of corporatized, bureaucratic models within public life and public institutions and of the seeming loss of genuine ethical commitment across much of contemporary society. His claim is that 'ethics' has too often been replaced by an ideology of compliance that is itself corrosive of real ethical conduct. Against this, Prof Malpas argues for a view of ethics as grounded in our prior commitment to the communities, and so also to the places, in which we find ourselves, and as an essentially critical and self-reflective critical practice.
Prof Malpas's work is highly collaborative. In 2015, for example, he participated in a major interdisciplinary event in Eichstatt Germany that drew together the key researchers on place with key researchers on situated cognition to explore connections between these areas.
He is currently involved in editing the Routledge Companion to Philosophical Hermeneutics and was also the Co-Chair for the Philosophical Hermeneutics stream at the 2013 World Congress of Philosophy in Athens. Jeff is joint editor (with Claude Romano of the Sorbonne, Paris) of the Springer series Contributions to Hermeneutics. He is currently joint editor of the Journal of the Philosophy of History, and also serves on the Editorial Boards of several international journals.
unexpected areas and ways - for instance: in local government in relation to issues of local and community identity; in nursing in the understanding of interactions with patients; among artists looking for new ways to conceptualize their work (he was a consultant for Arts Tasmania in 2014 as part of an NBN programme for emerging local artists); and by architects and planners looking to rethink modes of engagement with the built environment.
Prof Malpas is currently working on a wide range of topics and projects including: the ethics of place, the failing character of governance, the materiality of memory, the topological character of hermeneutics, the place of art, and the relation between place, boundary, and surface.Jeff has been a keynote speaker at conferences in Sydney (Heidegger and the Aesthetics of Dwelling, University of Sydney, 2005), Hong Kong (New Heritage, University of Hong Kong, 2006), Hobart (Australasian Association of Career Counsellors National Conference, 2008, and National Public Administration Conference, 2011), Melbourne (AAP Annual Conference, Melbourne University, 2009; Time, Transcendence, and Performance, Monash University, 2009; International Animation Conference, RMIT, 2012; Flow 2: Landscape Architecture and Design, Melbourne University, 2012), Patras, Greece (The Significance of Philosophy in Architectural Education, University of Patras, 2009), Stockholm (Nordic Society for Phenomenology, Sødertorn University, 2010), Busan, South Korea (Busan National University, 2011), Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires (Phenomenology and the Transcendental, 2012), Copenhagen (International Phenomenology Summer School, University of Copenhagen, 2013).
All of Prof Malpas' monographs and edited volumes, throughout his career, have been published with highly reputable and prestigious presses–Cambridge, MIT, Chicago, Springer, and Routledge. The fact that his work is now increasingly being made available in translation (from Italian to Korean) is additional evidence of its impact and influence. Whether for journals or edited volumes, almost all of the essays Prof Malpas has published over recent years have been invited submissions, and as a result he has published in a wide range of journals and volumes, and often in non-English-speaking publications.
Since 2000 Prof Malpas has been involved in four successful ARC Discovery grant applications (including an APF), two ARC Industry Linkage Grant applications, and one ARC Linkage International Fellowship application.
Contemporary architecture is increasingly dominated by digital and parametric approaches that are essentially quantitative in character. Yet there is also a widespread assumption that architectural design ought to be essentially oriented to questions of place. The question arises: can place be adequately encompassed by the quantitative methods of digital and parametric design? The aim of the project is to explore this question with the objective of clarifying the nature of place and of parametricism, as well as enabling a rethinking of what design itself might be. The project will operate through a set of studio provocations based in the fictional places of Mervyn Peake's Gormenghast novels.
Combining historical and conceptual approaches, this project aims to develop a new philosophical anthropologythat centers on understanding human being in terms of both place and commonality. This account will provide thebasis for a rethought conception of the ethical that is bound to human life and that understands the ethical asessentially a matter of judgment rather than prescriptive rule.
Prof Malpas has supervised and examined students in art, architecture, agricultural science, cultural studies, education, film theory, geography, literature, philosophy, sociology. He is particularly interested in work that connects directly with his own research interests, but is happy to consider any work that is interesting and innovative in its own right. Perhaps the only area in philosophy in which he has not supervised or examined is in formal logic.

Lolo Jones causes stir after taunting paralyzed football player on Twitter
Published 12:00 am EDT, Wednesday, October 3, 2012
Hurdler Lolo Jones trash-talked about head injuries to former Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand after he jokingly challenged her to a race on Twitter. What she didn't know was the defensive tackle was paralyzed in a game.
After LeGrand tweeted to Jones "want to race me?" on Tuesday night, she replied: "Get Checked for a concussion. Clearly, u've been hit in the head... Cos u arnt beating a track athlete."
When other users informed Jones of LeGrand's injuries, she wrote: "Great I'm gonna get murdered for that tweet. When I had no clue who that dude was.Just responding to any athlete who challenges me to a race."
LeGrand tweeted that he understood what happened and didn't take it personally, saying, "All good." As the incident continued to reverberate across social media Wednesday, LeGrand later posted that the reaction was "ridiculous."
He wrote: "she is a great person who misunderstood what I tweeted. People stop bashing her it's not right."
Several of the tweets were later taken down.
LeGrand broke two vertebrae and suffered a serious spinal cord injury Oct. 16, 2010, during a kickoff return against Army. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, under former Rutgers coach Greg Schiano, signed him as a symbolic gesture in May. He now works in broadcasting.
LeGrand's Twitter bio describes him as a "Defensive Tackle for Tampa Bay Buccaneers," though the photo shows him in a wheelchair. Jones wrote on Twitter that because she was viewing the page on her phone, the picture was too tiny to see clearly.
Jones finished fourth in the 100-meter hurdles at the London Olympics in August amid criticism that she receives more attention and endorsements than her results warrant. Four years earlier in Beijing, the American came in as the favorite and was in position to win gold when she hit the ninth of 10 hurdles and wound up seventh.

Q: Using PowerMockito to mock a class with @Inject variables and static methods I am trying to use a power mock to mock a class with @Injects and static methods called in another class constructor. But for some reason it seems to be throwing MissingMethodInvocationException in PowerMockito.when.
@Named
public class InstanceLocationWrapperFactory {

    @Inject
    private InstanceLocation instanceLocation;

    private static InstanceLocation internalInstanceLocation;

    @PostConstruct
    private void load(){
        internalInstanceLocation = instanceLocation;
    }

    public static InstanceLocation getInstance(){
        return internalInstanceLocation;
    }

}

I am trying to use it to instantiate a value inside the constructor of another class like as follows. (InstanceLocation is a interface which is implemented by DefaultInstanceLocationImpl class.)
class A{

    InstanceLocation instance;

    A(){
        instance = InstanceLocationWrapperFactory.getInstance();
    }

    public String myMethod(){
        /* using instance here to do some logic*/
    }
}

I am trying to write a test like this
@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest({A.class, InstanceLocationWrapperFactory.class})
public class ATest {

@Test
public void myTestCase1{
    InstanceLocation instanceLocation = mock(DefaultInstanceLocationImpl.class);
    PowerMockito.mockStatic(InstanceLocationWrapperFactory.class);
    PowerMockito.when(InstanceLocationWrapperFactory.getInstance()).thenReturn(instanceLocation);
    when(instance.getMethod()).thenReturn("something");
}

But when i run the above code for some reason i keep getting the below error for the line PowerMockito.when(InstanceLocationWrapperFactory.getInstance()).thenReturn(instanceLocation);.
org.mockito.exceptions.misusing.MissingMethodInvocationException:
when() requires an argument which has to be 'a method call on a mock'.
For example:
    when(mock.getArticles()).thenReturn(articles);

Also, this error might show up because:
1. you stub either of: final/private/equals()/hashCode() methods.
   Those methods *cannot* be stubbed/verified.
   Mocking methods declared on non-public parent classes is not supported.
2. inside when() you don't call method on mock but on some other object.

Can someone please help me understand if I am doing something wrong or missing something here.
