The term 'governance' indicates the complexity of decision-making processes in contemporary political and economic affairs. As opposed to the more traditional 'government', the idea of governance presupposes a fragmentation and diffusion of authority. Due to economic, social and cultural dynamics, no government nowadays can simply govern 'alone'. It is bound to share 'bits and pieces' of authority with other entities, from non-governmental organizations to regional institutions and private corporations.
Studying governance innovation means looking at the vast field of how decisions are taken in public institutions, private companies and civil society organizations to identify new ideas, processes and initiatives. Moreover, it implies favouring an open debate on the new frontiers of governance and the potential evolutions of our societies.
The Centre for Study of Governance Innovation (GovInn) is the first research institution in Africa dedicated entirely to governance innovation. It focuses not only on cutting-edge research, but it is also an 'innovation laboratory' capable of generating new thinking about governance processes and attract governance innovators from all over the world. In short, GovInn is an intellectual 'inn' for innovation in governance.

It's put Super VOOC to phone batteries, but now, Chinese tech company OPPO has announced a performance protocols engine for its smartphones called Hyper Boost — it's just a few letters away from "hype beast" and there may be reason to draw the comparison.
The way Hyper Boost works is that it allows what it calls "real-time two-way dialogs" for 50 different hardware and software scenarios between applications and the system resources feeding them. This bridging allows the system to more quickly adjust output to support what the end user is doing at the moment.
A dedicated apps engine focuses on platform-level programs like WeChat, Taobao and QQ. On the gaming front, OPPO has been able to optimize Hyper Boost for "Honor of Games" and "PUBG Mobile" plus nine other top games and is "well-equipped" to tackle all of the top 100 mobile games. It fits in with Unreal, Unity and Cocos engines and OPPO has partnerships with Tencent and Netease to integrate Hyper Boost.
The company has spent at least three years on this effort for Qualcomm and MediaTek chips and is able to boast an average savings of 32 percent on app load times.
As to when this progress goes public in new hardware and software, we'll have to wait and see.

Q: Cannot read property 'todos' of undefined ReactJs,Redux I just started to get familiar with Redux and I'm stuck on this error.I'm getting error Cannot read property 'todos' of undefined,On code below which is in component. :
const mapStateToProps = (item) => {
return {
    todos: item.todos,
    numberPerPage: item.numberPerPage,
    currentPage: item.currentPage
};
};

This is my Storage :
    const initialState = {
    todos: [],
    numberPerPage: 10,
    currentPage: 1
}

const reducer = (state =initialState, action) => {
    const { items, numberPerPage, currentPage } = state;
    switch (action.type) {
        case actionTypes.ADD_ITEM:
            return {
                ...state,
                todos: [
                    ...items,
                    {
                        value: action.value,
                        checked: action.checked,
                        _id: action.id,
                    },
                ],
                currentPage: Math.ceil((items.length + 1) / numberPerPage)
            };
        case actionTypes.GET_ALL:
            return {
                ...state,
                todos: action.items,
            };
    }
}

export default reducer;

Any Suggestions?

A: You do not have a default case in your reducer which is what causes the error.
When the reducer is initially set up, redux dispatches an @@redux/INIT action at which point of time your reducer returns undefined resulting in an error when you try to access the state value
Adding a default case to return state will overcome this issue and solve your problem
const reducer = (state =initialState, action) => {
    const { items, numberPerPage, currentPage } = state;
    switch (action.type) {
        case actionTypes.ADD_ITEM:
            return {
                ...state,
                todos: [
                    ...items,
                    {
                        value: action.value,
                        checked: action.checked,
                        _id: action.id,
                    },
                ],
                currentPage: Math.ceil((items.length + 1) / numberPerPage)
            };
        case actionTypes.GET_ALL:
            return {
                ...state,
                todos: action.items,
            };

        default: return state;
    }
}

The yarn creel or thread stand is like the foundation of a building. Chances are you either designed your processing equipment and built a yarn rack or creel yourself, or purchased your creel with a machine as a necessary accessory. Most of your focus on process improvement probably starts after the yarn enters the process. You might be surprised at the gains you could make by taking a hard look at your creel design.
In this multi-part series, we are going to share some creel design information to help you with ideas for your process.
The most common type, usually a ½" to ¾" steel pin that can be used for a variety of yarn or cone tube sizes.
PROS: Cheap, good for processes where a different yarn packages are used, low cost to maintain.
CONS: Perfect alignment to guides difficult, possibility for tubes or cones to be pulled off during processing, causing breaks or interruptions.
Used to align and stabilize a range of different size yarn tubes or cones.
PROS: Better alignment of yarn to guides, raw material tubes less likely to pull off, can be used for a range of different size tubes or cones.
CONS: One of the more expensive options, may require periodic maintenance.
A device used to align a yarn package – helps obtain a centered alignment of the package to the thread guides, enables yarn to pull off the package evenly.
PROS: Perfect Alignment for a set tube or cone type, best stability of the bunch, low maintenance cost.
CONS: Can only be used for one size yarn package, may require removal from pin to run other size tubes or cones.
Secure fit inside the package, rotates around the creel pin for even roll-off of package.
PROS: Great for yarns with high TPI/TPM to prevent kinking or process knotting, saves space since there is not yarn ballooning in process.
CONS: Cannot be used for high speed processing, expensive, requires some maintenance for reliable performance.
If you run a large number of ends, the cost of adapters adds up quickly. With thousands of creel pins at Service Thread, we previously used simple pins everywhere. When we made the decision to shore up our foundation by investing in the right yarn adapters and package holders for each process, we saw immediate reduction of scrap, and increased efficiencies.
Take a look at your process – Are you using the best yarn package holder or thread stand? How strong is your process foundation?


Val's drunken buzz comes crashing back down to reality tonight, literally - she falls down pretending to pole dance for Kerry on a lamppost. She then panics and lashes out at her mate when she tries to help her, as she has been cut. Luckily though, Eric isn't far and comes to the rescue, looks like Val may just have to start facing up to her reality and leave the bottle down for a while, as much fun as her drunken pole dancing is. Elsewhere, Lisa is left reeling after what Belle has told her, and urges her daughter to keep quiet about what she knows, even though Belle is anxious to come clean. Lisa tells her to carry her guilt, as she is terrified what the consequences for Belle could be. A right mess altogether, isn't it?


Watch the Teulade brothers from France take on Manhattan in this iconic video from this year's 2017 SEA Paddle NYC. The brothers charge the turbulent waters of New York City's East, Harlem and Hudson Rivers for OXBOW Sup to take a chance at being NYC's greatest paddle champions.
OXBOW sends only its most stalwart of warriors to test the waters around Manhattan. In 2017, in order to showcase the gleaming new lines of OXBOW's racing designs, the Teulade brothers took up the challenge to race up the East River – through Hell's Gate – to make the turn onto the Harlem River. The course then runs up to Columbia University where paddler's duck under the train bridge to where the rivers connect to stand on Manhattan's greatest tributary, the Hudson River, and battle the winds and current another eight miles to the finish.
This 24-mile course is arguably one of the hardest in the sup racing scene due to conditions, currents, boat traffic and more. But, with the Manhattan skyline as your backdrop and moments like paddling under the George Washington Bridge or through Hell's Gate, it is a rite of passage you'll never forget.
Get on the list for the 2018 SEA Paddle NYC event and WATCH the Teulade brothers charge the island's perimeter in this iconic video from OXBOW. Aloha!

The "Toledo is for everyone" campaign aims to make the Solheim Cup the most comprehensive event of all time
August 21st – Toledo is for everyone.
It's a statement that started as a t-shirt concept by local outfitter Jupmode and has now grown into a mission statement for a number of local agencies working together on a local campaign. Your goal? To make the Solheim Cup – a biennial international women's golf tournament held in Toledo from August 31st to September 6th – the most comprehensive event the city and tournament have ever seen.
More importantly, the agencies involved in the Toledo Is For All campaign hope to create an environment that encourages participation and does not prevent individuals from all backgrounds, disabilities or lifestyles from attending the event.
The project is a partnership between the event organizers, The Ability Center, The Sight Center, Memory Lane Care Services and the Area Office on Aging. Meg Ressner, co-chair of the Solheim Cup, said the partners had worked hard to ensure that no participants felt left out of the action.
"We're trying to remove every barrier that everyone would have and thought I can't go for whatever reason," she said.
A tent has been set up in front of the gates of the Solheim Cup, which is being held in the Inverness Club on Dorr Street in Toledo, in which people with disabilities in need can find out about accessibility or venues. The golf course will also have a sensory activation vehicle placed in an area called KultureCity that will allow individuals to take a break if necessary before they can enjoy the event again. Both in the KultureCity area and at the Toledo is for Everyone booth, sensory bags are provided for guests with items that can help reduce overstimulation, including: headphones, fidgeting and ID cards.
Sam Report, director of strategic development, said collaboration was a given during the planning of the event.
"At the Ability Center, we work every day to make the Toledo area the most disabled-friendly community in the country," he said. "And when you think of a huge event like Solheim coming to Toledo, it quickly became clear to us that we had to do everything we could to make the Solheim Cup the most disabled-friendly golf tournament of all time."
The story goes on
"The way we do it, we do everything," he continued. "It's through partnership. So we quickly reached out to a few friends, other organizations that work with people with disabilities … and we asked them how we could put our heads together to do everything in our power for everyone with any kind of disability-related concern we wanted to dispel that concern. "
The Toledo Tent is for everyone will be a one-stop shop for accessibility information, said Mr Report.
"It's a path for everyone from the aging community to the disabled community or Alzheimer's disease to dementia. If you are just thinking about a specific life situation, this tent provides a place to find information on how truly inclusive and accessible the Solheim tournament is." it will."
Accessible parking is available at the Stranahan Theater and Great Hall, and shuttles will be available under the Americans with Disability Act to take individuals to the Inverness entrance.
The mobile sensory activation vehicle is available in KultureCity from Friday to Sunday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and on Mondays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Ms. Ressner hopes to set the standard for designing an inclusive event. Additionally, she hopes Toledo will be recognized for its efforts to make an event as big as the Solheim Cup, something everyone can enjoy.
"For anyone visiting from outside Toledo and northwestern Ohio, we want them to see what happens when you work together," she said. "When you work together, you can really create accessibility and inclusion."

Say Hello to The Vamps, AKA the Demi-Approved British Band That's About to Be Huge
Fangirling begins in 3, 2, 1...
By Hannah Gilman
We just learned that YouTube stars are more popular than regular celebs, but it didn't take a study for us to know that. British pop band The Vamps, which is made up of the ever-talented (and seriously cute) foursome Brad Simpson, James McVey, Connor Ball, and Tristan Evans, got their start online, and are well on their way to serious super-stardom. They're currently on tour with Austin Mahone (which is being documented in their brand-new reality series on AwesomenessTV!) AND they just dropped their debut EP, Somebody to You. Whew! These boys are about to be your new fave band, and lucky for you, we have the details on everything from how they found each other to their not-so-secret love for country music.
The Vamps wouldn't be The Vamps if it weren't for lead guitarist James—he was, after all, the one who decided he wanted to start a band. After a little sleuthing, he found lead singer Brad, who was sharing his talents with the world via YouTube covers. Next was Tristan, who was uploading drum solos (holy talented, guys!), and then came bassist Connor, who was in Brad's cover camp, too. "We met up and we just clicked instantly," Tristan says.
Judging by the first episode of their new reality show (watch it below!), we'd say that instant clickiness is pretty clear: The dudes look like they're having so much fun on tour with Austin, and according to them, it's only going to get better...and stranger. "It's just them following us around on tour and us being very weird," Brad says. And on-the-road pranks? Tristan says you can count on 'em. "We just usually hang out with each other and have a laugh." We can only imagine.
But it's not all fun and games. (Well, OK, it kind of is, minus the fact that according to Connor, their tour bus broke and it was a total nightmare.) The show chronicles The Vamps's first stateside tour, which they say has been the coolest, most surreal experience ever. "Touring America has been amazing," James says. "We've never done it before, so it's unreal to travel to most of the states and meet thousands of fans. We'd love to headline a USA tour one day." And he's not the only one. Luckily if Brad's words are any indication, we might not have to wait too long for a full-length album to hit the shelves, which means we can officially cross our fingers for that coinciding headlining tour. "We definitely want to drop the album at some point before the end of the year, so maybe around Christmas," he reveals. "We've got the album in the bag, so it would be nice to just get it out!"
In the meantime, we've got the The Vamps's music playing on a constant loop. "It's feel-good, acoustic-driven, indie folk-pop, if that's even a genre," James says. Brad likens the feel to something similar to The Lumineers and says they get stage-spiration from bands like Foo Fighters. The EP features two covers (of songs by none other than One Direction and 5 Seconds of Summer), as well as three originals, and the guys say they're involved in the entire process, from writing all the way to production. "We're all songwriters and love to write new stuff every day, whether it's full songs or even just little guitar, bass, or drum pieces to add to future songs," Connor says.
One of those originals is the title track and lead single off Somebody to You, which features our girl Demi Lovato. Talk about a dream collab. "She's amazing," Brad says. "She's got an incredible voice, she's very talented, and we always knew we wanted a feature on that song and Demi was perfect. It was a pleasure and an honor to be working with her." But the boys continue to think big when it comes to working with other artists (James says Ed Sheeran's on his wish list) and they're not afraid to step outside their genre, either. "I would love to work with Eminem," Tristan admits, who also says he's into country artists such as Florida Georgia Line and Dan + Shay right now. The Vamps x FGL? We could definitely get into that.
Are you planning on watching The Vamps's new reality series on AwesomenessTV or catching them on tour with Austin? Let us know in the comments below!

Russia is producing two new Doomsday planes, says government news agency
The presidential Ilyushin Il-96, believed to be carrying Russian President Vladimir Putin, takes off from Geneva Airport Cointrin following a U.S.-Russia summit on June 16, 2021. (Alessandro della Valle/Keystone via Getty Images)
ZHUKOVSKY, Russia — Russia is reportedly working on two so-called Doomsday planes to carry the country's senior military and political leadership in case of a nuclear attack.
The Russian Air Force and Space Forces will receive two airborne commanding posts based on the Il-96-400M plane, according to Russian government news agency RIA Novosti, citing a source in the country's defense sector.
The Il-96-400M is the modernized version of the Il-96 long-haul, wide-body civilian jetliner. An Il-96 variant currently operates as President Vladimir Putin's primary means of travel by air, similar to that of the United States' Air Force One.
Both Russian planes will be remodeled in the city of Voronezh, a several-hours drive from Moscow at the Voronezh Aircraft Production Association's aviation assembly plant, which produces transport planes for civilian and military use.
RIA Novosti reported the source said that a third such plane will be made in the future.
The new Doomsday plane is to replace the more outdated Il-80 plane, based on the Il-86 civilian version.
Russian media reported December 2020 that parts of the radio equipment from one the Il-80 Doomsday planes were stolen during maintenance in the city of Taganrog. An unemployed local citizen was later charged with the crime. The plane's location at the repair facility was allegedly poorly guarded. Retired Air Force Maj. Gen. Vladimir Popov told Russain daily Moskovsky Komsomolets at the time that thieves were possibly looking for parts containing precious metals.

A defining aspect of MetroHealth's population health strategy is the idea that there is more to good health than what happens during visits to the hospital. It's with that principle in mind the System and the Greater Cleveland RTA celebrated the unveiling of the newly named MetroHealth Line.
The 51 A, B and C bus routes will become the MetroHealth Line beginning this fall. In addition to connecting southern suburbs like Broadview Heights, Parma Heights and Strongsville to downtown Cleveland, The MetroHealth Line is one of the RTA's busiest, serving more than 2 million people every year.
In addition to a rebranded name, and 20 new, MetroHealth branded vehicles, the MetroHealth Line will feature more than 400 new bus stop signs and 37 branded bus shelters along its path.
But this partnership is about more than a new coat of paint or adding the familiar MetroHealth logo to RTA vehicles and stops. "The first step to good health is being able to access good health care," said RTA CEO and general manager Joe Calabrese, who noted that upwards of 10% of RTA ridership is travelling to and from health care facilities.The MetroHealth Line will pass not only the System's main campus on West 25th Street, but five other MetroHealth locations across Cuyahoga County.
Look for the MetroHealth Line's new vehicles, shelters and stops starting in December.
To learn more about the celebration, read the RTA's recap here.

AFW Founders Award 2013-2014
The first place awardee is Jennifer Santos
Paul Allen School for Global Animal Health
Jennifer came to WSU in the fall of 2011 after graduating Magna Cum laude from the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus with a B.S. in Molecular Biology.
She is a graduate student in the Immunology and Infectious Disease program in the Paul Allen School for Global Animal Health and plans to graduate this May.
With her advisor Viveka Vadyvaloo, Jenni seeks to understand the environmental persistence of bubonic plague by studying the interactions between Yesenia pestis, the microbe that causes the plague, and the protozoan Acanthamoeba castellanii. Viveka notes "she has impressively and single-handedly pioneered the development of a new protozoan host model in the laboratory."
She is a co-author on a manuscript that was recently published in the top tier infectious disease journal, and is currently writing a manuscript on her masters research.
During her time at WSU, she has served as a peer mentor for minority students pursuing STEM majors and for pre-health majors through the Team Mentoring Program.
From one of her letters of support:
"This program is a partnership the Office of Multicultural Student Services and the colleges that offer STEM degrees and it is designed to increase the enrollment, retention, and success of underrepresented students in the STEM disciplines. As a Mentor in this program, Jennifer demonstrated numerous positive qualities. She has a welcoming personality, great sensitivity, is open minded, exhibits great ability to connect and works well with others. Her fellow mentors appreciated her as a leader, team player, and as a confident and poised colleague. She certainly shows to be a mature individual who professionally handles whatever task is at hand."
In July Jennifer will join the Medical Laboratory Scientist program at Providence Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane. She would also like to make significant contributions to the field of infectious disease research and help improve the quality of life around the world
Her long-term goals include becoming a teacher in a medical science program or a community college level and encourage younger minds to consider a career in science.
Receiving second place is Amanda Vander Woude,
Amanda Vander Woude came to WSU with a BA in Vocal Music Education from Dordt College in Sioux Center Iowa. She will grad in May with a master's in vocal performance.
Under the direction of her mentor, Sheila Converse, Amanda is studying the causes and prevention of vocal injuries in modern professional singers. Dr. Converse " Amanda's thesis is a thoughtfully written, carefully researched project that she plans to distribute to studio voice teachers to help them understand and thus prevent vocal injuries in their singers of all genres."
Amanda teaches master-class in vocal instruction to about 20 students weekly, and college-level group lessons to another 20. She is also a private vocal instructor, a DJ at Inland Northwest Broadcasting, and a creator of educational media. She performs as a soloist and with ensembles at WSU.
Her referees concur that "As a voice teacher…she is without a doubt the best grad student we have had in this position. Her students absolutely love her, enjoy her consistent encouragement and the way she helps them overcome challenges and consistently improve from week to week."
After graduation, Amanda plans to audition for professional performances as a singer and apply for doctoral programs in vocal performance and pedagogy.
AFW Harriett B. Rigas Award 2013-2014
Ellen Preece
School of the Environment
Ellen Preece came to WSU in fall of 2008. In May, she will receive her PhD in Environmental and Natural Resource Sciences.
Ellen's research addresses water and food safety issues that directly affect people's lives. She has worked collaboratively with WSU, state and federal agencies, farmers, non-profit organizations, Native American tribes and communities throughout Washington to protect and preserve aquatic resources across the state. Her advisor, Barry Moore, writes that ""Ellen has already demonstrated great leadership, and I believe she will ultimately be a leading scientist who will make significant contributions in the nexus of agricultural, environmental, and human systems. Her research has major relevance to environmental, aquaculture, and economics concerns in WA and in similar systems worldwide. "
Ellen has presented her work at 16 conferences and written numerous reports and papers in peer-reviewed journals. She recently was elected president of the Washington State Lake Protection Association.
Before coming to WSU, Ellen was a Farm Service Agency Intern, an Americorps Volunteer, a wildland firefighter. In short, her work to date has impressive contributions in service, leadership, and research. Currently, she is pursuing funding for a postdoctoral position to expand upon my graduate research and she plans to continue conducting research that links environmental issues to the protection of human health.
"Being a professor for a university or a scientist for a government or tribal entity will allow me to pursue research that I find fulfilling and that will help me meet my long term goals of improving the environment, health, and food safety."
Celia Faiola
Celia Faiola came to WSU in 2009 and will graduate in May with a PhD in Engineering Science. Although an undergraduate academic counselor advised her not to take science classes because they would be too challenging for her, this strengthened her resolve. She is the first woman in her family to pursue a graduate degree.
Celia is studying biosphere-atmosphere interactions with advisor Timothy VanReken. Dr. VanReken says, "Celia's research project is one that is breaking new ground at the boundary of atmospheric chemistry and biogeochemistry. Her primary goal is to improve our understanding of how environmental stresses affect the emissions of trace gases from plants, and how those gases then contribute to air pollution and climate change. Celia has done a fantastic job with an exceptionally challenging project and is one of the best students to come through our program in many years. She is smart, focused, and driven to do good in this world.
Celia has also been a graduate student leader throughout her time at WSU. She has been a senator with WSU's GPSA, and was the president of the university's Graduate women's Alliance in Academia (GAIA). She also made significant contributions as the graduate student member of the Board on Atmospheric Bio-geosciences for the American Meteorological Association.
Her long-term goal is to work at a small public university where she can provide research opportunities to women and minorities who are under-represented in science and engineering research.
Robin White
School of Animal Sciences
Robin earned her Bachelor's degree in Animal Sciences from WSU in 2 years. She will receive her PhD, also in Animal Sciences, in May 2014 under the supervision of Dr. Kristen Johnson.
Robin's research focuses on developing mathematical models to explore how on-farm management strategies affect sustainability of beef production systems. Her work is some of the first integrating social acceptability metrics into economic and environmental livestock models.
Amazingly, her interdisciplinary research combines animal science, economics, statistics, and applied mathematics to examine management strategies that might be used in the beef industry to reduce land and water resources, and greenhouse gas emissions.
Her research will result in 5 peer-reviewed publications and 14 conference papers/posters. She has received 13 awards and scholarships including top honors in numerous research competitions and include 1st place for her presentation at the American Society of Dairy Science and the Pacific Northwest Nutrition Conference. She also received a travel award to attend the 5th Greenhouse Gas in Animal Agriculture Conference in Dublin, Ireland last spring.
Additionally, Robin exhibited leadership skills as president of her department's graduate student association for 2 terms, designed weekend workshops for youth groups and served as a teaching assistant, an online course developer and a course instructor.
Robin would like to pursue a career that allows her to research methods to improve global food security.
I think we can all agree that as one of her nominators stated: "Robin is an excellent student, an aspiring teacher".

Freezing and cold storage is an efficient method of fish preservation. Freezing and frozen storage of fish can give a storage life of more than one year. If frozen with Vacuum Bag - shelf life is 24 months - without vacuum bag - it's 18 months. Provided the temperature is low enough - below -10°C bacterial action will be stopped by the freezing process.
Our Steelhead Trout is farmed in the pristine waters of the Andes Mountains at over 13,000 feet above sea level, in the Choclococha Lake in Peru. It is farmed without the use of antibiotics, nor chemicals or anti-parasites. 100% natural, environmentally friendly, healthy and delicious. Available 365 days a year and first Salmon Trout farm to be 4 star BAP certified.
Salmon, is the common name for several species of fish in the family Salmonidae. Salmon are native to tributaries of the North Atlantic (genus Salmo) and Pacific Ocean (genus Oncorhynchus). Typically, salmon are anadromous: they are born in fresh water, migrate to the ocean, then return to fresh water to reproduce.
The Octopus, is a cephalopod mollusc of the order Octopoda. It has two eyes and four pairs of arms and, like other cephalopods, it is bilaterally symmetric. It has a hard beak, with its mouth at the center point of the arms. Octopuses inhabit many diverse coral reefs, pelagic waters, and the ocean floor. Octopuses are among the most intelligent and behaviorally flexible of all invertebrates.
Snapper, of the Lutjanus family, are fin fish that are typically found in tropical coastal waters. Snappers are not known for their massive size, but some snappers can grow up to approximately 3 feet long. Most snapper feed off of smaller fish or crustaceans, giving it an excellent flavor.
The swordfish is named after its sharp bill, resembling a sword. The bill is used to injure its prey, making for an easier catch. Lacking teeth, the swordfish relies on its great speed and agility. Swordfish can grow up to 14 feet and weigh as much as 1400 pounds. Females grow larger than males, with males rarely weighing over 300 pounds.
The Grouper's average weight is around 15 pounds, with the largest catch on record at a little over 39 pounds. This species lifespan is approximately 25 years. Distinguishable by its' firm pinkish meat, it has become one of the most requested smoked items.
Mahi Mahi is a Hawaiian word that means "strong-strong". Mahi Mahi are distinguished by dazzling colors including golds, bright blues and greens. Mahi Mahi has a lifespan of 3 to 4 years, which makes them one of the fastest growing fish in the sea.
Tilapia are mainly freshwater fish inhabiting shallow streams, ponds, rivers and lakes and less commonly found living in brackish water. Historically, they have been of major importance in artisan fishing in Africa and the Levant and are of increasing importance in aquaculture and aquaponics.
Argentine Red Shrimp
Argentine Red Shrimp (Pleoticus Muelleri) are wild caught in the deep waters of the Western South Atlantic area. They are jumbo sized and often compared to lobster but sweeter!

The Yates Cup is one of the oldest trophies in North American Sports and the fight to earn the right to lift the 106 year old trophy is always a good one. For the last two year the McMaster Marauders have been given the opportunity to call themselves the OUA champions but all that would change this year. After the loss of former Hec Crighton winner Kyle Quinlan the Marauders were not the same team that had dominated a conference for two years.
The CIS season began with a big question as the Big Four in the conferences were the main story that everyone was watching. The Calgary Dinos, Laval Rouge et Or, Acadia Axemen, and the McMaster Marauders had all won their conferences in the last two years and questions of three-peats were beginning to surface. Two of the teams had already been through the three-peat and had won plenty of titles ahead of last year. Two teams in the big four were looking to win the title for the third straight year and begin a time of dominance like in the other two conferences.


Trying to figure out if this mast is OK. In the Island of Porto Santo (Between Portogal and Canary Islands). No rigger within 5 days of sailing for me. Getting some help from a sailmaker and the local boatyard.
6 weeks ago my forestay came off during sailing in strong winds. The chainplate broke (where the forestay is connected to the deck). Even though the forestay wire was declared to be Ok by the local boatyard and the sailmaker, on the advice of people in this forum I went ahead and asked the sailmaker and boat repair man to replace the forestay wire.
Took time to get it from over seas. They claim they cut the wire exactly to the length of the old one, yet when we put it up there if flops down so much it looks like it could be 15 or 20cm too long, and the back stays are flopping around sitting in their old setting. The mast looks bent. They blame the mast. Thing is, the mast looks bent backwards not forward, so I am confused.
Re: Bent Mast. Loose New Forestay.
If it's too long don't worry about it Selden in Gibraltar made mine too short so we had to redo everything including the new roller .
If you provide more information about your mast type and spreaders people here will be able to help you .
A wild guess for me , take a weight and put it on the mainsail halyard , the mast must be lean backwards about 10 percent and should be bent backwards up to 20 percent of the total length.
Check if the mast is bent forward , if it's not then the chain plate should be longer or the wire , so remove it cut in the right size and try again , try to not over cut it .
.... I am in canaries if you arive here and you need help send me a.pm .
If your mast is bent without any rigging tension on it that is likely to be bad, and not easily fixable. Pictures would help, along with the kind of boat. Is the bend gradual? Or a "kink" at the spreaders?
If the mast is bent enough, it is possible that the top of the mast is closer to the deck than it used to be, leaving the stays too long.
Did you replace the chainplate? Exactly the same as the old one? Do you have the old wire? How did the locals make the terminals for the new wire if there is no rigger around with a swaging machine?
Did you insect your OTHER chainplates for crevice corrosion? Has anybody been to the top of the mast to inspect the fittings up there?
Thanks for all that. Latest is the boat yard repair guy confesses to cutting it so it was 20Cm longer than the sail maker had told him to (from another island). Fairly confident now to ask him to cut it 20cm shorter. Enclosed a photo of the bent mast. There is not much tension on it from front or back. 1984 Colvic Liberator.
Chainplate was a bolt through the bow and it broke where that bolt enters the deck as it was touching aluminium. They made me a new bolt and I painted it and painted the hole a few times .
Other chainplates do not touch aluminium and look fine.
Been up and down the mast a few times now and things look OK above.
Heading north into the wind to Algarve.
If there is no rippling and the mainsail slides go up and down smoothly I would say the mast is OK. With a babystay, caps and no lowers I would expect to see the mast curve soothly. If you think it is too much try checking the cap shroud tension. If they are overtightened it will put in excessive mast bend.
Think Roland has it right. When you get a proper length forestay and can tighten it the mast bend should go away. Mast may have taken a slight rearward bend when forestay chain plate failed but shouldn't be a concern unless there is a visible kink in the mast extrusion.

Meet WONDER Foundation, Electroneum's newest trusted ETN miner that helps thousands out of poverty
Electroneum announces their association with another transparent and trustworthy NGO that focuses their hard work on empowering girls and women around Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America.
WONDER Foundation and Electroneum share the vision to help improve the lives of millions that live in vulnerable conditions helping them to exit poverty and live more.
The UK-based foundation has been making a difference around the world for more than four years working to help tens of thousands, including survivors of natural disasters.
Electroneum is excited to reveal their association with WONDER Foundation, a non-governmental organisation (NGO) who have been selected as their newest trusted miner who share the vision to help break the cycle of poverty in the developing world by providing long-term assistance to tens of thousands of children, single mothers and their families.
The UK-based WONDER Foundation has empowered tens of thousands of girls and women by transforming their lives through access to quality education and providing them with the tools and assistance they need for a future that is truly promising.
Throughout the years, WONDER Foundation has made a difference in dozens of countries working with locally-lead partners around the world helping to end poverty.
WONDER Foundation also helps people who have survived natural disasters. For example, the NGO helped nearly 15,000 Filipinos whom were victims of Typhoon Haiyan. Thousands also received urgent medical care and ten families received new homes through WONDER Foundation.
"Our partnership with Electroneum will give women and girls in countries like Democratic Republic of Congo, Guatemala and the Philippines the chance to access quality education, leading into good work," says WONDER Foundation Director of Policy and Campaigns Olivia Darby. "More than this, through personal support, they will be able to be agents of change in their own lives and communities: truly empowered women!"
WONDER Foundation states they work for real, long-term change because "real change takes time – whether it's personal, professional, or community-wide." As part of their long-term assistance, the NGO ensures that students in their partner projects receive mentoring to make sure that they can complete their education and fulfil their potential. This helps end poverty, they add.
Electroneum CEO Richard Ells praised the work of WONDER Foundation. "We took a very close look at many NGOs when we decided to transition to our proprietary Moderated Blockchain, powered by our unique Proof of Responsibility (PoR) protocol.
"When we heard of WONDER Foundation and the amazing work they do on a global scale, we researched them and found they share our vision to help people live more," says Ells. "They are helping young women to upscale their skills and ensure they have a brighter future. They carry out this mission in many countries across Europe, Africa, Asia and Latin America, where they have already made a huge difference in the lives of thousands."
Recently, Ubuntu Pathways was revealed as one of Electroneum's new miners. Ubuntu is an NGO that has been praised by Desmond Tutu (1984 Nobel Peace Prize) and Bill Clinton, among many other internationally renowned personalities.
"We carried out an in-depth investigation into many NGOs and confirmed that both Ubuntu Pathways and WONDER Foundation are amongst the most transparent and trustworthy in the world," says Ells.
Electroneum has since its founding in September 2017 focused its priorities on helping millions of people in the developing world live more. It has made this possible by rewarding its users with up to US$3 monthly in ETN and by enabling them to use it every day.
In South Africa and Brazil, Electroneum's thousands of ETN users are already topping up their mobile phones with airtime and data via the Electroneum mobile app. In South Africa, Electroneum users can also use their ETN to buy bread, milk, coffee, sugar and other basic food items as well as pay for taxis and carwashes.
"We have invested heavily in research and development all with the aim to bring cryptocurrency to mainstream adoption," says CEO Richard Ells. "We have created an ETN ecosystem that is quickly expanding as we prove to corporations and organisations that cryptocurrency does have real-world utility."
In recent years, WONDER Foundation has had a positively long-lasting impact on tens of thousands of girls and women as well as their families and now that it has become an Electroneum trusted miner and will receive ETN block rewards, the NGO will be able to continue helping hundreds of thousands of people around the world.

It's always nice to see the trend when big indie bands take advantage of technology to share their live performance on the internet. The Toronto-based rock giant, Broken Social Scene, has recently streamed their live show at Terminal 5 in New York City, January 18th, and made it available on the internet for fans to enjoy.
Another band who has taken a step further with sharing their live performance on the internet is the Montreal psychedelic rock band, the Dears. They have set up a channel at livestream and they have been streaming their live show every Mondays from 7p.m (EST).
The channel is constantly streaming their music videos, rare tracks and sessions if you miss the Monday live shows. There are only one episodes left! (Feb14th) If you haven't seen any of them before, don't worry about it you can still watch full past episodes from the channel as well.


This Milano Maroon coupe with a build date of April 30, 1965, was delivered new to Bryner Chevrolet in Jenkintown, PA. Although the name of the first owner is not known, it is clear that this Corvette was ordered with an eye for both performance and aesthetics.
This car was built with the rarest and most expensive engine offered in 1965 — the 375-hp, fuel-injected, high-lift cam engine, coupled with a Muncie close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission and a Positraction rear end. Milano Maroon Metallic paint was ordered for the body, and the highly desirable optional aluminum knockoff wheels with gold sidewall tires completed the striking presentation.
An ownership log listing each owner since 1976 states that the car was in Canada from that year through 1985, during which time the car was restored to factory specifications. Owner Sandy Thornburn, of Calgary, began the restoration work, but it is reported to have been completed by another owner, Doug Scott, also from Calgary. In 1990, the car is identified as having been in the ownership of Marvin Rouse of Garden City, KS.
During his ten-year ownership, the car received a Bloomington Gold award, showing slightly fewer than 56,000 miles on the odometer.
In 2002, under its then-owner, Lynn Henish, the coupe was re-certified by the NCRS with a Top Flight award. According to the judging sheets, the car received an impressive composite score of 97.1 out of 100 points. Following the certification, and for its first time in decades, Henish enjoyed the award-winning coupe on the road, accruing some 9,000 miles before selling it privately to the current owner.
The Corvette is accompanied by its Protect-O-Plate and window sticker, as well as a comprehensive file containing an itemized list of parts restored and replaced, restoration receipts, photographs of the restoration and the car on display, customs paperwork, receipts and bills of sale from the various owners during the past 35 years. This is a truly outstanding, well-documented Corvette with rare options that shows the benefits of a high-quality restoration and decades of careful ownership and respectful use.

Q: XSLT match with different conditions I need to output different nodes based on the content tags of my input xml.
As you will see in my transformation, i want to recognize, if a shut has SHU_CODE=10, 6, 7, 8, 9, it should go into a NODE node, but if its SHU_CODE=4, it should go into a separate NODE.
Then within each node i apply the transformation to each specific shut.
The problem i am having is that i cannot manage to have separate the nodes, all goes to de same NODE.
This is the input xml:
  <Inserts>
    <Shuts>
      <Shut>
        <SHU_CODE>10</SHU_CODE>
      </Shut>
      <Shut>
        <SHU_CODE>4</SHU_CODE>
      </Shut>
    </Shuts>
  </Inserts>

And this is my expected output:
<NODE>
    <SHUT workcenter='10'/>
</NODE>
<NODE>
    <SHUT workcenter='4'/>
</NODE>

This is part of my xsl transformation:
<xsl:template match="Inserts/Shuts[Shut/SHU_CODE='10']

A: Assuming you can move to XSLT 2 or 3 you can do it easily with xsl:for-each-group:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    version="3.0">

  <xsl:output indent="yes"/>

  <xsl:mode on-no-match="shallow-copy"/>

  <xsl:template match="Shuts">
      <xsl:for-each-group select="Shut" group-by="SHU_CODE = 4">
          <NODE>
              <xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()"/>
          </NODE>
      </xsl:for-each-group>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="Shut">
      <SHUT workcenter="{SHU_CODE}"/>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

https://xsltfiddle.liberty-development.net/eiZQaFB has an online sample. In XSLT 1 grouping is usually done with Muenchian grouping and a key.
If you want to form different groups based on different values you need some way to define those groups, assuming XSLT 3 with XPath 3.1 one could use a sequence of array and then check the index inside e.g. https://xsltfiddle.liberty-development.net/eiZQaFB/1 which does
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:array="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions/array"
    xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

  <xsl:param name="group-keys" as="array(xs:integer)*" select="[4], [11], array{6 to 10}"/>

  <xsl:function name="mf:group-index" as="xs:integer">

      <xsl:sequence select="for $pos in 1 to count($seq-of-arrays)

Here we cover the aspect of licensing and the query of operating program activation right after moving a challenging drive from one particular computer system to one more containing the C: drive letter, which is most often the Windows system drive, to another distinctive method. A lot of shoppers currently came to the retailer to replace their laptop or computer that had Windows XP. We invite those who did not replace it currently to come to the retailer and we will be pleased to enable chose either a employed pc with Windows Vista or Windows 7 or a new computer with Windows eight. If you have crucial data that you want us to transfer on the new computer system do not forget to bring your old computer system.
Fundamentally, you are buying Windows 8 but with downgrade rights that let you to run Windows 7. The nice thing about the 7 Pro version is that it has an XP Mode that lets you run a copy of XP under Windows 7. It is a bit of a geeky strategy but it does allow people today to move at their own pace from XP to Windows 7 to Windows eight. Otherwise, the Fantastic Leap Forward can come as a bit of a shock.
To implement our answer of connecting Remote Desktop through the web proxy server, we will have to put the gateway server in the identical network as the terminal servers. When it comes to technologies solutions like desktop and laptop PCs—even printers, phones, and more—unless they are beyond repair, the chances are that what you send back will ultimately end up going back on the shelves. A lot of computers in this variety are refurbished which is practically nothing to be afraid of.
A much more radical remedy might be essential when your really hard drive will not boot up, or when you cannot get the pc to navigate via the windows you will need for a restore-point reset. When a normal retail important for Windows 7 (I suspect Windows eight too), XP, Vista, and it does not have OEM in the product key, moving the drive stands a improved opportunity of results.
The Remote Desktop Gateway server can be placed either at the clientele premises, and firewall rules can then be set up to enable this server only access to your terminal servers in your hosted atmosphere, or the Remote Desktop Gateway server can be placed at the similar network place as your terminal servers, and firewall guidelines on the customers network can be configured to permit client workstations access to this Gateway server only.

Home ► News ► Why is the Government so indulgent towards the Mayor of London?
Why is the Government so indulgent towards the Mayor of London?
Along with millions of others, my Council Tax bill will increase this April – by the maximum level allowed without a referendum. In Hammersmith and Fulham that means an increase of 4.99 per cent on the main bill. But there is also to be a 9.7 per cent increase in the precept imposed by the Mayor of London.
Why is the Mayor of London being allowed such a big increase?
Michael Gove, the Levelling Up Secretary, said in a statement to Parliament before Christmas:
"The Mayor of London has requested flexibility to levy an additional £20 on band D bills to the Greater London Authority precept to provide extra funding for Transport for London. The Government have expressed ongoing concern about the management of TfL by this Mayor, and it is disappointing that London taxpayers are having to foot the bill for the GLA's poor governance and decision-making. While the Government will not oppose this request, any decision to increase the precept is solely one for the Mayor, who should take into account the pressures that Londoners are currently facing on living costs and his decision to raise council tax by 9.5% last year."
"Disappointing." Yet the failings are to be bailed out. Why is Transport for London not taken away from the Mayor if he is incapable of running it properly? It is an essential public service – not just for Londoners. Nor is it just London Council Taxpayers who face the costs of the financial mismanagement at TfL. Extra funds have also been poured in from central Government – without any robust prospect of improvement.
Ross Clark wrote in the Daily Telegraph:
"Ever since Covid, the Government has indulged Khan by bailing out Transport for London with grants. It did once try to insist in return that the mayor investigate automating the Tube, something which could save billions in the long run, making public transport in London much less dependent on subsidy. But if the London mayor is making a serious effort to do that, I can't see any sign of it.
"Indeed, the bailouts have continued in spite of Khan wasting taxpayers' money on a commission into the legalisation of cannabis – something which lies well outside his jurisdiction."
Then there is the controversy over the expansion of the Ultra Low Emission Zone, ULEZ. This is a declaration of war on white van man. Drivers will be charged £12.50 a day to enter the zone if the vehicles are not compliant.
This issue was raised at Prime Minister's Questions recently:
Craig Mackinlay (South Thanet) (Con)
Q13. To continue a theme, evidence is now very clear that the London Mayor's sham consultation has suppressed 5,000 negative responses from members and supporters of FairFuelUK, for which I chair the all-party parliamentary group. What angers me is that this proposal is a tax against my South Thanet residents, it is a tax against Kent residents and it is a tax against all of the home counties. It is true taxation without representation. Will my right hon. Friend assure me that he will do all he can to stop it? This tax is a fill-up for a failed Mayor's budget and a failed Mayor.
The Prime Minister:
My hon. Friend makes an excellent and powerful point, and he is right to highlight that the Labour Mayor is imposing that tax on a public who do not want it. Expanding that zone is not something that communities want. I look forward to working with my hon. Friend to urge the Mayor to consider and respond properly to all views and stop that unfair tax.
I suppose if the Mayor was to "consider and respond properly to all views" that would be progress. But why should he be allowed to proceed with such a damaging scheme? Labour councils such as Redbridge and Barking and Dagenham have opposed the scheme.
Air quality should be improved by incentives and positive initiatives – not crude and expensive anti-car measures. Instead, the Mayor should look get on with switching to electric buses. Regular use of dust suppressant spray – particularly around construction sites is an example of a measure that would have a modest cost and a significant benefit. What about taking the theft of bikes seriously? Also, he should work with motoring organisations to reduce pollution by avoiding traffic jams. This might mean getting rid of unnecessary bus lanes and traffic lights – also removing humps. Where traffic lights are deemed necessary could more of them be switched from pelican crossings to puffer crossings (the ones with sensors) to avoid cars kept waiting with their engines running when the road is clear? Having vehicles crawling along benefits nobody.
But the ULEZ expansion is misguided. It is not enough to say it is for Londoners to elect another Mayor. What use is that to the people of South Thanet?
In any case, for the rest of local government there is a safeguard of staying within budget. When this is not achieved in Liverpool or Slough the commissioners are sent in. Why does Khan get a special dispensation to help himself to ever more dollops or public money and to do as he pleases – with just the gentle murmur that it is "disappointing" and he should "consider the views" of those who are displeased?
If the Government is serious about wanting a return to economic growth, then action is needed to prevent sabotage from the Mayor of London.

Your Chance to Reimagine the Arts
and Our Next Strategic Plan
As Canada's public arts funder, the Canada Council for the Arts is proud to support the creation and sharing of the arts through our investments in Canadian artists and arts organizations.
As we embark on a new 5-year strategic plan we want to hear from you, to shape a plan that reflects the arts sector's current reality and looks ahead to how the Council can continue its support and also help to reimagine the arts for the benefit of all Canadians. We invite all Canadians to participate and share their ideas.
Bringing the arts to life, Canada Council for the Arts
It inspires us.
It stirs our imagination; feeds our creativity and sets us in motion.
It takes us places we never thought possible.
It is freedom, experimentation, pain and joy.
It creates new myths and reinvents old ones.
It soothes the weary and offers us hope; touches our very souls.
It breaks new ground, breaks down walls, and brings us together.
Art connects us with ourselves and drives us forward.
Telling our stories and giving us voice.
Art shows us who we are.
Arts are part of us all.
The Canada Council's offices, located in Ottawa, are on the unceded, unsurrendered Territory of the Anishinabe Algonquin Nation whose presence here reaches back to time immemorial. Read our full land acknowledgement here.
Art is important. It speaks, creates connections, changes perspectives, inspires positive social change and decolonization, and promotes healing and reconciliation. But in the midst of a global pandemic, many Canadian artists and arts organizations are struggling. The sector's recovery and its ability to thrive in the years to come will require reflection, dialogue, and the involvement of many.
By tapping into the insights of Canadians from diverse communities, perspectives, interests, and relationships to the arts, we hope to develop a strategic plan for 2021-26 that enables a resilient, sustainable, and inclusive arts sector, stronger than ever before. The plan will outline the Council's role and intentions to support these aspirations, by leveraging our mandate, resources and efforts over the next 5 years.
Our last strategic plan was launched in 2016. Since that time, the Council has increased its overall support to artists and arts organizations and has made important investments in digital, international promotion and Indigenous arts. The new plan will guide the Council through the next five years, a critical time for the arts as it emerges from the global COVID-19 pandemic.
A Message from the Director and CEO
Today, we have the responsibility of reimagining the arts. We need to reimagine better conditions for artistic creation, dissemination and remuneration. We need to reimagine more resilient, inclusive arts organizations with even greater attendance and support. We need to reimagine an arts sector determined to eliminate racism and discrimination in every form, and the legacy of colonialism. We need to reimagine the arts' rightful place in the conversations that shape our future. And we need to reimagine, through the arts, a greener and more just and equitable world.
This is an important moment for the arts sector in Canada,
and we want to hear from you
The Council will be hosting three (3) 90-minute dialogue sessions. Through conversation with interested stakeholders, these sessions will build on key issues identified in our ongoing engagement activities.
We aspire to support a vital and diverse arts ecology that enriches the lives of all Canadians, and we are committed to equity, diversity and inclusion. We encourage the participation of a wide range of perspectives and participants in in this process.
The virtual dialogue sessions are happening on:
Monday, November 2, 2020 from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. EST (bilingual, "English first")
Tuesday, November 3, 2020 from 3:00 – 5:00 p.m. EST (bilingual, "English first")
Wednesday, November 4, 2020 from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. EST (bilingual, "French first")
In addition, recognizing the unique context and needs of the Northern territories, a 90-minute dialogue session will be dedicated to Northern stakeholders and their concerns. This session is happening on:
Thursday, November 5, 2020 from 2:30 – 4:30pm EST (simultaneous interpretation will be available in English, French and Inuktitut)
Simultaneous interpretation will be available for all sessions. If you require any supports to be able participate in these sessions, including ASL/LSQ interpretation or CART captioning, please let us know during registration.
If you are unable to participate in a session, please feel free to consult the participant handout and discussion guide for conversation topics . Written comments can be submitted to plan@canadacouncil.ca until November 16, 2020.

SpaceX's 'challenging' Falcon Heavy mission launch goes 2/3 on booster landings
The center core just missed a waiting drone ship.
Falcon Heavy NASA/Kim Shiflett
Last year SpaceX launched its massive Falcon Heavy rocket for the first time, but the company describes tonight's STP-2 mission as one of the "most challenging" launches in its history. It's also the first Falcon Heavy launch to reuse side boosters, which previously took flight just 74 days ago on the Arabsat-6A mission.
The tricky part is after it takes off, with a planned "four separate upper-stage engine burns, three separate deployment orbits, a final propulsive passivation maneuver and a total mission duration of over six hours." SpaceX's mission animation video shows what we're expecting to see:
The launch window was scheduled to open at 11:30 PM ET, but NASA and SpaceX are now targeting takeoff for 2:30 AM ET. The launch window extends until 3:30 AM, and a backup window will open tomorrow night between 11:30 PM ET and 2:30 AM ET.
This flight is also important because of its payload, which includes things like NASA's Deep Space Atomic Clock, LightSail 2 and the Green Propellant Infusion Mission. After launch, we're in for another triple landing attempt, with the two side boosters coming down at Cape Canaveral and SpaceX attempting another sea landing for the center core and, hopefully, bring it all the way home this time.
Update (6/25, 2:49 AM ET): First, the good news. The launch was a success, and all the booster rockets separated as planned. The two side boosters made it safely back to Cape Canaveral in another synchronized landing. However, as the company warned about this "challenging" mission, returning the center core was especially tricky, and it missed landing on the waiting drone ship by a few feet. The team is now waiting to hear the status of deployments for the 24 satellites onboard.
Targeting T-0 of 2:30 a.m. EDT for Falcon Heavy launch of STP-2; team completed additional ground system checkouts. Vehicle and payload continue to look good
