Uniting Business Africa — Building a prosperous, thriving, sustainable, resilient continent
New UN Global Compact Africa strategy calls for broad-based collaboration of business, finance, trade groups, governments, civil society and United Nations
New York, Dec. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New UN Global Compact Africa strategy calls for broad-based collaboration of business, finance, trade groups, governments, civil society and United Nations
UNITED NATIONS, New York, 2 December 2021 — Leaders from African business, civil society, governments and the United Nations joined a Uniting Business Africa forum on Thursday to promote responsible business practices and sustainability, challenging the continent's private sector to find opportunities in addressing the twin crises of the COVID-19 pandemic and the climate emergency.
The United Nations Global Compact and its Local Networks, which sponsored the one-day virtual event, introduced an Africa Strategy for 2021-2023, a call to action for Africa's businesses to reach the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 Agenda and Africa's Agenda 2063.
"As economies on the continent recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, there are critical opportunities in energy transitions, transforming food systems and leveraging the wealth of extractive industries toward a green sustainable and inclusive economy leaving no one behind," said Amina J. Mohammed, United Nations Deputy Secretary-General, at the event. "These opportunities are not only good for business, they're also the investments that we need to get back on track towards the Decade of Action with the 2030 agenda and agenda 2063 at its core."
Also addressing the forum was Botswana President H.E. Mokgweetsi Masisi, who underscored his country's commitment to sustainability and resilience efforts.
"Let me reaffirm Botswana's abiding faith in the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact and unflinching support for the Africa Strategy," he said.
Attendees addressed such issues as achieving net-zero carbon emissions and halting the global temperature rise to 1.5° C, with a look ahead to COP 27, scheduled to be held in two years in Egypt. African marketing leaders also addressed leadership for the SDGs.
Collaboration is critical, drawing together small and medium-sized enterprises as well as large multinational corporations with trade associations, financial institutions, governments, civil society and UN partners, said Sanda Ojiambo, CEO & Executive Director of the UN Global Compact.
"By working together with business, government, regional authorities and the African Union, we can and must make the 2030 agenda and agenda 2063 a reality for Africa," said Ojiambo.
Business leaders contributed insight from their own experiences, citing sharing their experiences and strategies for sustainable, resilient practices, including Josephine Pieters, Senior Manager, Social Impact at the De Beers Group, the diamond mining giant, Robert Okine, chief executive at Bewsys, an IT consulting firm based in Ghana, and Jane Karuku, chief executive of Nairobi-based East African Breweries.
The objectives of the UN Global Compact's Africa Strategy include a focus on the issues and programs most relevant to African companies. It aims for participation of leading pan-African and national companies, the inclusion of all companies in all geographies and in all sectors and using the leverage of associations, supply chains and sources of capital.
The Africa Strategy is establishing a regional hub in Abuja, Nigeria, and will expand the number of Global Compact Local Networks across the continent. With 1.3 billion people and a combined GDP of $3.5 trillion, Africa is the world's biggest growth market.

The Moses Montefiore Congregation has been blessed with having Rabbi Kenneth Katz as our part-time spiritual leader from 2010 until October of 2019. For the past 10 years, Rabbi Katz has travelled from Madison, WI approximately 2 weekends per month to lead shabbat services, conduct adult education, work with students and meet with congregants.
Our congregation has grown spiritually as a result of our association with Rabbi Katz. Rabbi says of his time with us, "Moses Montefiore Congregation is part of more than a century of Jewish life in the Fox Valley. Though small, Moses Montefiore continues to be a gem of a synagogue and its future is bright."
Rabbi Katz is embarking on an exciting new stage of his life and career and we are now searching for a new spiritual leader to guide us.
While we search for a new spiritual leader, our Friday evening and Saturday morning services are led by a dedicated group of lay leaders. These leaders are fellow members of our congregation who take pride and enjoyment in making sure we have a service or Torah study on a regular basis.

Bangladesh agrees World Bank deal for education improvements
Simone Rensch
Bangladesh and the World Bank have signed a $510m financing agreement to enhance secondary education, potentially benefiting 13 million students.
The programme will focus on improving both quality and access to education and also use grants and stipends to ensure more students – especially girls and children from low-income backgrounds – complete their secondary education.
Rajashree Paralkar, acting World Bank country director for Bangladesh, said: "Bangladesh has made remarkable progress in advancing access to education, and has achieved gender parity in secondary education.
"Continuing to invest in quality education is critical for Bangladesh to achieve its vision of becoming a middle-income country."
Paralkar added that the programme would also support modernisation of the curriculum and ensure teachers were appropriately developed and managed.
The package includes a $10m grant, which is aimed at improving adolescent health and school retention. Topics on general health and hygiene will be incorporated into the curriculum.
The rest is provided through a zero-interest loan.
The World Bank has committed to nearly $28bn in grants and interest-free credit to Bangladesh since its independence in 1971.

Q: Remove Time from DateTime values returned in Query With the help of you guys on here, I have the following SQL Query:
SELECT DataLog.TimestampUTC,MeterTags.Name,DataLog.Data
FROM DataLog
INNER JOIN MeterTags
ON DataLog.MeterTagId = MeterTags.MeterTagId
WHERE DataLog.TimeStampUTC between cast(getdate() - 1 as date) and cast(getdate() as date) and
      DataLog.MeterTagId Between 416 AND 462;

This returns a column "TimestampUTC" with YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss. I'd like to drop the time within this column and only display YYYY-MM-DD.
Any help you could give would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

A: SELECT convert(char(10), DataLog.TimestampUTC, 120) as TimestampUTC,
MeterTags.Name,DataLog.Data
FROM DataLog
INNER JOIN MeterTags
ON DataLog.MeterTagId = MeterTags.MeterTagId
WHERE DataLog.TimeStampUTC between cast(getdate() - 1 as date) and cast(getdate() as date) and
      DataLog.MeterTagId Between 416 AND 462;

A: In SQL Server you can convert to Date
select Convert(Date, Convert(datetime, '2013/01/01 12:53:45'))

results:
2013-01-01

A: You should use :
CAST(DataLog.TimestampUTC as date)
The code looks like:
SELECT CAST(DataLog.TimestampUTC as date),MeterTags.Name,DataLog.Data
FROM DataLog
INNER JOIN MeterTags
ON DataLog.MeterTagId = MeterTags.MeterTagId
WHERE DataLog.TimeStampUTC between cast(getdate() - 1 as date) and cast(getdate() as date) and
      DataLog.MeterTagId Between 416 AND 462;

Matthias Kneussel (* 23. Januar 1966 in Darmstadt) ist ein deutscher Neurowissenschaftler und Hirnforscher.

Leben

Kneussel legte 1985 an der Georg-Büchner-Schule in Darmstadt das Abitur ab und studierte von 1987 bis 1993 an der TU Darmstadt Biologie. Im Jahr 1993 schrieb er seine Diplomarbeit am Max-Planck-Institut für Biophysik in Frankfurt am Main.

Nach dem Studium wechselte er 1994 nach England an das University College London (UCL) in das "Department of Pharmacology". Er etablierte mittels homologer Rekombination in embryonalen Stammzellen ein "knock-in" Mausmodell mit einer Punktmutation an der Q/R-Stelle der NMDA Rezeptor Untereinheit NMDAR1 (GluN1). Nach mehrjähriger experimenteller Forschungsarbeit als "PhD-Student" in London, England wurde Kneussel mit der Arbeit "Ein transgenes Mausmodell mit der N598R-Mutation in der NMDAR1-Rezeptor-Untereinheit mittels Gene Targeting" 1997 an der TU Darmstadt der akademische Grad Doctor rerum naturalium (Dr. rer. nat.) verliehen.

Von 1997 bis 2002 war Kneussel zunächst als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter, später als Teamleiter der Arbeitsgruppe "Neurotransmitter-Rezeptoren" am Max-Planck-Institut für Hirnforschung in Frankfurt am Main tätig. Während dieser Zeit untersuchte er zahlreiche Protein-Protein Interaktionen an der postsynaptischen Dichte glyzinerger und GABAerger Synapsen und wurde im Jahre 2001 mit dem Nachwuchsforscher-Preis der Deutschen Neurowissenschaftlichen Gesellschaft ausgezeichnet. Mit der Schrift "Molekulare Organisation von membranständigen und Membran-assoziierten Proteinen zentraler Synapsen im Nervensystem von Säugern" habilitierte er sich 2004 an der Universität Frankfurt am Main für das Fach Biochemie.

2002 wurde Kneussel als unabhängiger Arbeitsgruppenleiter an das Zentrum für Molekulare Neurobiologie Hamburg (ZMNH) des Universitätsklinikums Hamburg-Eppendorf berufen. Er habilitierte sich erneut an der Universität Hamburg und erhielt 2005 die "venia legendi" für die Fächer Genetik und Molekularbiologie. Im Jahre 2006 erhielt Kneussel den Förderpreis der Heidelberger  Chica und Heinz Schaller Stiftung. Seit 2010 ist er Professor und Direktor, des im gleichen Jahr neu gegründeten Instituts für "Molekulare Neurogenetik" am ZMNH des Universitätsklinikums Hamburg-Eppendorf.

Forschungsthemen

Kneussel forscht auf der molekularen und zellulären Ebene des Gehirns. Er wurde für seine Arbeiten zur synaptischen Verankerung von inhibitorischen Glyzin- und GABA-A Rezeptoren durch das postsynaptische Protein Gephyrin bekannt. Gemeinsam mit anderen Wissenschaftlern am Max-Planck-Institut für Hirnforschung in Frankfurt am Main konnte er erstmals mit genetischen Methoden im Mausmodell zeigen, dass Gephyrin für die Rezeptordichte GABAerger Synapsen essentiell ist. Zusammen mit Heinrich Betz entwickelte er ein Modell zur Beschreibung eines zentralen Gephyrin-Proteingerüsts an der inhibitorischen Postsynapse, welches als Plattform für die synaptische Verankerung von Neurotransmitter-Rezeptoren fungiert. Weitere Arbeiten von Kneussel zeigten, dass Proteine der exzitatorischen und inhibitorischen Synapse (GRIP1, Gephyrin) Aufgaben im neuronalen Transport von intrazellulären Vesikeln übernehmen, indem sie Neurotransmitter-Rezeptoren als Adaptorproteine an molekulare Motoren (Motorprotein-Komplexe) koppeln. Aus diesen Arbeiten und Arbeiten anderer Wissenschaftler leitet sich die Theorie ab, dass bestimmte synaptische Proteine duale Funktionen vermitteln, indem sie sowohl die Spezifität von Rezeptor-Transport zu einer Synapse als auch die Rezeptor-Verankerung an einer Synapse regulieren. Spätere Forschungsarbeiten identifizierten Transport- und Verankerungsproteine GABAerger Synapsen, wie Muskelin und Radixin. Kneussel erforscht mit neurogenetischen Methoden im Mausmodell wie synaptische Aktivität und neuronale Plastizität intrazellulären Transport durch molekulare Motoren zu und von Synapsen beeinflussen und wie neu synthetisierte Proteine gezielt zu solchen Synapsen gesteuert werden die an Lern- und Gedächtnisleistungen beteiligt sind.
Aktuelle Forschungsthemen befassen sich mit der molekularen Untersuchung kognitiver Prozesse wie Lernen und Gedächtnis sowie mit psychiatrischen Erkrankungen und Gedächtnisverlust.

Q: Android device age Is it possible to query the age of an android device? I want to know, how long a user owns his device. The age of the battery might be a good indicator, but I cannot find an appropriate API. Optimum would be something the timestamp of the first device boot. Any Ideas?

A: There is no solid way to find out the device age but yes somehow we can figure out the age.
Android devices are packaged with some pre-installed apps(Sytem applications) and when user owns it, he installs other apps(User applications). We can find out date of earliest installed user app and can predict the device age.
* If device has been reset after use, it would be difficult to find device age.
// @return  earliest installed app's date.
private static String getOldestAppsAge(Context context) {
    long appsAge = 0;
    try {
        appsAge = System.currentTimeMillis();
        PackageManager pkgManager = context.getPackageManager();
        List<ApplicationInfo> lsApp = pkgManager.getInstalledApplications(0);
        for (ApplicationInfo localApplicationInfo : lsApp) {
            String pkgName = localApplicationInfo.packageName;
            if ((localApplicationInfo.flags & ApplicationInfo.FLAG_SYSTEM) == 0) {
                PackageInfo info = pkgManager.getPackageInfo(pkgName, 0);
                long firstInstallTime = info.firstInstallTime;
                if (firstInstallTime < appsAge && firstInstallTime > sGINGER_RELEASE_DATE) {
                    appsAge = info.firstInstallTime;
                }
            }
        }
    } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
    }
    return DateUtils.convertIntoDesiredDateFormat(appsAge);
}

*

*Some android devices return epoch time (1970), so we must use some check condition : if (firstInstallTime > sGINGER_RELEASE_DATE)

A: There are a few difficulties you may need to consider here:
1) Most android devices have (easily) removable batteries. I, for one, have several batteries that I alternate between when I use my phone.
2) Even if timestamps had been collected on boot, they would likely be deleted if the phone's owner wipes the device to install different ROMs.
I'd expect jcollum's solution of attempting to determine the model of the phone, or look at some piece of its hardware and determine an approximate release date of the model might be your closest solution. I doubt you'll find much accuracy in determining the age of the actual device. If there is, however, please correct me - I'm curious about this now too!

A: That's an interesting question.  There's no API to tell when the device was first purchased - but you can look for proxies.

*Read the SMS inbox - what's the earliest date a message was sent or received. (Of course, they could have deleted their older messages).

*Similarly, read the call log and see when they first received or made a call.

*The uptime can also be queried - but I guess most people switch their device off, or otherwise reboot it.

*Looking in the gallery, you could query the EXIF data and see when the earliest photograph was taken.

*With access to the file system, you could look at when certain files were created.

None of those are perfect, but they can be used to put some bounds on when the user first got their device.


Since the beginning of the 20th century, U.S. states have used minimum-wage laws to help ensure that regular employment provides the means to a decent quality of life. For decades following its enactment in 1938, the federal minimum wage provided this protection for workers across the United States. Click here to read full article.

Magic crystals in the Mail
Posted by atomicspin in Churnalism, Food is totally science, Health & medicine, Too scientific; did not read on Monday, 8th November 2010
The idea that there should be some magic bullet to weight loss is a surprisingly common one. This week, the magic cure the Mail is pushing is a type of crystal called "Sensa" which, it claims, makes food more flavoursome, so people eat less but feel as full. (Edit: The Telegraph is now reporting on it too, and their article is even more one sided than The Mail's)
So far, so what? Every diet pill on the planet claims to do that.
Ah, but, The Mail claims, there's SCIENCE behind it:
In scientific tests, obese participants who used the flavourless, 'Sensa Tastant' crystals lost an average of two stones in six months.
Others lost an average of just two pounds.
Sure enough, the website of Sensa does provide links to the study, and it does appear to back up what the Mail claims at first glance. But there's a problem.
The study, Use of Gustatory Stimuli to Facilitate Weight Loss, carries the name of just one scientist – Dr. Alan Hirsch. Hirsch happens to be not only the researcher who performed this experiment, but also the inventor of the crystals. One other study, "Efficacy Determination of Weight Loss through Use of Crystal Tastants", claims to be by an independent lab, but there's no authors listed for the study and it doesn't appear anywhere on the internet apart from the Sensa website and a couple of mirrors, which makes this claim impossible to verify. In an interview with ABC News, Hirsch claims the second study was carried out by the distributor of the Sensa, in which case the researchers were perhaps less independent than implied.
Neither of these papers have published in a peer reviewed journal – nor, in fact are they proper papers. Instead, they're just posters for use at a conference. As a result, they really don't go into the experiments in any details, glossing over all the awkward details. For example, the papers do not give the distributions of weight loss. It's all very good and well claiming that on average people lost on average 30 lbs, but unless you know what the spread is, it's pretty useless. Did everyone lose 30 lbs, or did a few people lose 100 lbs and everyone else lose nothing?
Nor does it explain how the "control" group was controlled. In Hirsch's study, there was no placebo. As far as I can tell, the control group is simply a collection of obese individuals who had no particular intention to lose weight. The people who actually took Sensa on the other hand were people who definitely did want to lose weight. Given that a) participants actually had to pay $49 per month to take part in the 6 month trial and b) people weren't weighed in the lab but instead simply reported their weights to the scientists at the end of the study, there's more than enough reasons for people to exaggerate their weight-loss to the researchers. Who wants to admit to wasting $300, after all?
Furthermore, only 1436 participants out of 2437 actually completed the trial; over 40% dropped out. It's reasonable to assume that people who did not lose weight would stop taking the Sensa – after all, they're paying $49 per month for it! This would weed out anyone who did not find Sensa worked and, over time, you'd be left only with the people who did lose weight – whether that was due to Sensa or not.
Finally, and most damningly, the experiments have never been peer reviewed. Dr Hirsch claimed at one point that the Endocrine Society had reviewed and approved his work. In fact, they simply allowed him to give a presentation at a conference, and were "surprised and troubled by the promotional nature of his presentation".
ABC showed the papers to researchers, both professors at prestigious US university. One claimed the study has "negative value", while the other said "says there is no scientific proof that Sensa works and believes the study was done to justify a commercial product". Pretty damning.
It's always possible that maybe a proper independent lab will pick up this study and prove without a doubt in a properly controlled experiment that Sensa works. At the moment though, I think it's safe to say that the scientific evidence that the Mail so proudly touts is rather lacking.

Every press release is sacred
Posted by atomicspin in Churnalism, Health & medicine on Wednesday, 23rd June 2010
The Independent, The Mail, Metro, Sky News, CBS News, ABC News, FOX News, TIME, Newsweek and The Hindustan Times, among many others, have all carried in the past few days some variant on the following:
[A] dating site with a strict ban on ugly people, has launched a virtual sperm and egg bank for people who want to have beautiful babies.
By "an online sperm and egg bank", what they actually mean is a forum on their site to let people exchange details and get in contact with donation clinics. Now, as you can probably imagine, there are a whole host of ethical, legal and logistical difficulties behind this, and you'd think this would make some interesting copy. How can a public forum respect donor anonymity laws? What prevents people from passing off other people's gametes as their own? What stops people from using the service to send sperm directly from donor to recipient, which carries with it all kinds of disease risks?
And more to the point, what's new? Solicited gamete donation has been around for decades (just ask the LGBT community), and most countries with legal donation frameworks permit the recipients to choose based, to a greater or lesser extent, on the donor's appearance. So why is every news outlet reporting this as some sort of groundbreaking news?
Well, there was a press release.*

Where girls and science blend
Andi Esposito BUSINESS EDITOR
In the first class of the day, a fluid, entrepreneurial science exercise in which students are supposed to figure out how a motion detector works, three girls noodle over a new Dell laptop.
``We have a problem,'' one says.
The laptop hasn't been loaded with the software needed for their task.
Science teacher Jacklyn Bonneau suggests that while they wait for the software, the students open their college-level physics textbooks, get out calculators and tackle some problems.
About 20 minutes later, the girls figure out that the detector will only record movement within 5 meters, but seem discouraged it took so long to figure it out. ``It's too early in the morning,'' one sighed.
The girls are juniors at the Massachusetts Academy of Mathematics and Science in Worcester, a state-funded public high school. Their class consists of 24 girls and 24 boys -- the first time since the school's founding in 1995 that any class has had as many girls as boys.
The school takes exceptional students in math and science and nurtures them through the 11th and 12th grade -- all go on to college -- in hope that they will fuel the pipeline of engineers and scientists critical to the state's economy. The academy has 102 students.
There are 80 schools like it nationwide, including three in New England.
Juniors have class in a renovated former factory on Prescott Street; seniors go to WPI, where senior year counts as their freshman year of college -- at no charge to parents -- if they decide to attend WPI and are accepted.
Academy students have full use of WPI facilities.
Until recently, girls made up a quarter of the students, each of whom is among the best and brightest in their classes from 60 area school districts. But last year, after the school focused on recruiting more girls to balance enrollment ratios, their numbers began to climb.
``We are taking students after Grade 10,'' said former principal and founding faculty member Pauline J. Lamarche, coordinator of special projects. ``Girls are more social at that age than boys. It is more difficult for them to leave their friends and the security of their social lives.''
But once they arrive, they find a ``girl-friendly'' environment, said academy Principal Rob Traver. The absence of a sports program and ``jock culture'' allows other values to be embraced, he said.
Creative problem-solving and teamwork, small classes, instructional intervention to ensure girls are as engaged as boys, and women role models as teachers help attract and retain girls.
``It's a culture that is affirming of the intellect, and a sensitivity to the world, all of which is healthy but may be especially healthy for girls,'' he said.
In a place where there are no geeks and nerds, or where everyone is a geek or nerd, he said, social relations are redefined.
``You won't see the traditional boy-girl culture,'' he said. ``But you will hear a boy say, `She's really smart -- I like that.' Courting starts in a very different place.''
Dressed in T-shirts, sweatshirts and jeans, multiple piercings in some ears, the girls on the team in Ms. Bonneau's physics class came from high schools where they grew restless after they used up what was available academically.
``I slept through my classes at my old school,'' said Erin E. McLaughlin of Douglas, who plans to major in physics. ``When I said I wanted to go into physics, they looked at me like I had three heads.''
While there's more work at the academy than at her old high school, she said, ``It doesn't seem like a lot. It's fun work, not busywork. You are learning all the time.''
Sarah J.A. McLeod, who wants to be an astrophysicist, said she was ``never challenged in math and science. I would always be bored. In Millbury, everyone was on the same page. It was all book work. Here it's hands-on.''
Jennifer J. Kowaloff, a former Bancroft School student who hopes to be an engineer, said she was attracted by the science program at the academy and likes the flexibility.
``It's easier to talk to teachers,'' she said. ``They are more willing to help you succeed.''
Each plans to go to college and graduate school, and perhaps into research. Ms. McLeod believes they will find a welcome climate when they are ready to work.
``My dad has told me that women in hard science are being sought after and hired,'' she said.

Are you more productive when you work from a clean desk?
If you're like me, you've always got a million things going on. Let's face it, that single phrase, "a million things going on" – defines most of the American society today. After all, there are literally and figuratively a million things available at our fingertips at any given moment.
So I thought I would give some thought to the topic of focus and productivity as it relates to a clean desk or office. How about I walk you through a few different theories, and you can decide of cleanliness and productivity are positively correlated?
The purpose of this activity was to eliminate anything that would inhibit the crew person's sight or create an obstruction during the actual battle. In other words, it helped the naval personnel focus on the task at hand – a battle – without unnecessary obstructions.
While this could indeed be true, I'm not sure this is a strong enough argument to convince me that the mess on my desk might reduce my productivity. However, I would have to agree that I have difficulty finding things in the piles of paper on my desk. I have the same issue finding documents I've saved on my computer as well.
So while it may be of critical importance to clear the deck in a battle situation, I'm not sure it has the same impact in work life.
I wish I could find the reference for this, but it's probably within the confines of a physical book I don't own. However, I once heard Suze Orman speak about the psychology behind seeing physical clutter (consciously or unconsciously) and distraction in your brain.
The idea was that whether you thought about it or not, the physical clutter around you made it harder to focus on your goals. Subconsciously, your mind wanders to the clutter that surrounds you.
In a work situation, this makes sense. While I'm working on Project A, the papers for Project B, C, and Y are within eyeshot. Psychologically, my brain could be distracted by these other and very different projects.
Now as my memory serves, Suze's reference was related to the guilt your brain feels about the money you've wasted on things that are now clutter. Her suggestion, throw it out, and the guilt will go away, allowing you to refocus your brain on your financial goals, rather than beating yourself up for prior wasteful spending.
I'm not sure about you, but I'm a little more convinced about clutter and reduced productivity with this theory. Our powerful brain is working subconsciously even when we attempt to avoid these thoughts.
Also in this study, is the suggestion that there is a complete offset in time spent on productive tasks versus by organizing tasks. In other words, taking time to organize is not exactly a productive task. Or is it?
While we could keep going, I would say it's time to draw your own conclusion. Personally, I'm going to side with the power of my brain. That is, I believe that when my office space is messy, I have a harder time focusing on the task at hand. Metaphorically speaking, I would say the same issue exists when I have 42 tabs open as well. So I will opt to clean up.
Where are you on the issue?


Do Your Distribution Sites Have Contamination Issues?
Electrical distributions, as owners and operators of kilometers of line, transformers, distribution sites, face unknown amounts of environmental liability. With this substantial investment in real property and equipment, every distribution company owes it to themselves to be informed about the status of their potential environmental risks.
AEL's experience at high hazard electrical sites has given AEL staff confidence and expertise in work safety. AEL staff receive extensive training and are outfitted with all necessary PPE in order to complete jobs on high risk sites in a safe and healthy manner.
AEL has completed hundreds of investigations and remediations at electrical distribution sites across Ontario. Click here for a case study.
Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) - Manufactured as an insulating fluid in electrical transformers prior to its ban in 1977. Often included in "transformer oil", it may still be present in old transformers manufactured before 1977.
Petroleum Hydrocarbons (PHCs) - Transformer oils generally show up as petroleum hydrocarbons during an environmental investigation. Although different in composition from automotive oils and fuels, they fall under similar restrictions in the environmental regulations.
AEL recommends managing environmental liability by completing necessary regulatory due diligence, such as an O.Reg. 153/04-compliant Phase I and Phase II ESA. Contact us to discuss how this will benefit your site.


This was Oct. 26th, right after we got home from his surgery! He is such a trooper! He is only about 4 yrs. old and has his entire life ahead of him! He is going to touch so many lives and make a difference to so many people!
This sweet boy was found wandering the streets of Yuma alone, scared and unable to see! Turns out he was completely blind! He ended up in the shelter where he was off the streets, safe and being fed. His coat was badly matted and full of stickers. It was obvious to shelter staff that he had suffered an injury to his left eye and would need it removed. What they did not realize was that his right eye would also need to be removed. It was matted shut and nobody could even see that eye! On October 20, 2016, he made his way up here to the ranch. On Oct. 26th he had his surgery to have both eyes removed. He did remarkably well and despite his situation he remained the happiest dog! He was such an inspiration and a great reminder that life is always good.....no matter what! He is such a happy, loving boy and has certainly made his mark at the ranch! He is so special, and not because of his circumstances, but because of who he remains to be despite all of his challenges! He is an amazing dog and we are so blessed to be part of his story!
"Gus" attended a public event where several hundred people were. This is just 9 days after his surgery! He had people approach him all day and pet him! He loved every minute of it! There was a band playing, lots of activity and noise, lots of kids running up to his stroller! He was SO happy to be there and have so many people to meet! That's right!! No eyes, lots of noise and he could not get enough! This little guy is very special and is one of a kind! He loves life and is as happy as he can be! He loves to go bye bye in the car and hang out in a stroller! What an amazing dog!!
On December 3, 2016 "Gus" found his forever family and moved to southern Arizona to begin his new life! He will be very loved, very well cared for and will be visiting senior citizens in assisted living! This is exactly what we had in mind for "Gus"!
His first day at home learning his new routine and getting to know his new family!
"Gus" made it home and settled right in. It was a long day for him. He was tuckered out and made himself right at home! We love you "Gus"!
Here is what we had written about "Gus" prior to him finding his forever home. We found him the home we were looking for!
This is one very special little guy! He has certainly had a rough time until now, however, he is not special because of his circumstances. He is special because of WHO he is!! He is special because of how he has come through his rough start and who he remains to be, despite of it! This little guy could not have a better personality or temperament! He could not be any happier despite everything! To meet "Gus" is a spiritual experience! Most people can actually 'see his heart'! We know this little man is going to change a lot of lives of those he is going to meet over his lifetime! We are convinced that he has a calling! He is one little dog with one big heart and a huge calling! He has certainly made his mark on VJ Ranch! There is someone out there that NEEDS "Gus". We are determined to find you! We saved "Gus" and now he is going to save a human! We know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, there is a soul that he is supposed to save!!

Q: Github Merge issue (all lines shown) I'm trying to merge two of my branches and while trying to resolve the conflicts I can usually just open up the file and github has added
">>>>HEAD
 {my code}
 ========
 {other code}
 >>>>Other"

this shows me which specific lines of code are different in the two versions and then I can decide which lines to keep. However, when I'm merging some of the PHP files don't show the exact differences. Instead the PHP file has my version on top with all the lines included and the other version on bottom. It's a lot harder trying to resolve conflicts this way. Are there any suggestions as to why this is happening? How can I resolve my conflicts in an easier way?

A: I tend just to fix the merges manually by editing the files.
Hopefully you don't have to do that too often.
However, there is a mergetool that I've seen people use.
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-mergetool.html
Hoe that helps

A: That is a side-effect mentioned by Rich in his answer.

One little hiccup that I've noticed with this setup is that when there are merge conflicts, the lines git adds to mark up the differences do not have Windows line-endings, even when the rest of the file does, and you can end up with a file with mixed line endings

That is one more argument to avoid core.autocrlf true, and set it to false.

Independents gearing up
The Federation of Wholesale Distributors is all set for National Independents' Day on Wednesday, June 1, with members keen to stock up on products to support the first national generic promotion for independents.
Money-off coupons for brands such as Coca-Cola, Heinz, Uncle Ben's and Doritos were printed in yesterday's (May 27) editions of the Daily Mirror and the Daily Record. Cash and carries have displayed giant posters and have been playing a special jingle to alert customers to the day.
About 10 million coupons, which can be redeemed at independent stores, will be in
circulation. Stocks of NID materials have been snapped up, with more than 2,500 independents calling the helpline for T-shirts, caps and balloons. By May 22, all 25,000 items had been cleared.

A Terror (eredeti cím: The Terror) 2018-as amerikai televíziós sorozat. A műsor alkotója David Kajganich volt. A sorozat műfaja történelmi-dráma, de vannak benne horror és kaland elemek is. A show játékideje 60 perc részenként. A főszerepben Jared Harris, Ciarán Hinds és Tobias Menzies látható.

Az első évad cselekménye
A sorozat a Franklin-expedíció történetét dolgozza fel. Az 1840-es évek végén két brit hajó, a HMS Terror és a HMS Erebus indult az északi sarkvidékre, hogy felfedezze az északnyugati árjárót. Egyik tengerjáró sem tért haza, így a felfedezés kudarccal ért végett. Ráadásul az élelem is elfogyni látszott, ezenkívül a hajók személyzetéből sokan a teljes átfagyás széléig jutottak. Ahogy telik az idő, úgy fogy a legénység türelme, és világossá válik számukra, hogy itt már nem a történelmi felfedezés a cél, hanem az életben maradás.

Szereplők
 Jared Harris - Francis Crozier
 Ciarán Hinds - John Franklin

>Thinking in terms with somebody about how parents are pains in the arse, and in particular about one side (in mine, my fathers) a curious scenario just happened. My dad is an atypical pretty strict Chinese father, so we never think in the same playing field, in terms of perspectives.
Well anyways, he just walked into my room at 12:15AM when I am supposed to be "sleeping" with me busting out "I'M JUST A GIRL" by NO DOUBT at 14o WATTS with 4.2 surround sound.
He defintely gave me a wierd look. Talk about awkward. Oh well.
Last day before school. How depressing.

Fermentation is prized for bringing incredible flavors to life, whether it's in wine or beer, cheese, kimchi, chocolate, or more. Recently, fermentation has also been used to make cultured ingredients for the flavor and fragrance industry, enabling the production of delicious, renewable, and accessible products.
Many treasured flavors and fragrances are extracted from botanical sources, which can be costly and resource intensive, putting pressure on natural biodiversity. Moreover, fluctuations in supply due to weather or other unpredictable events can lead to dramatic changes in the cost of important ingredients. Cultured ingredients brewed by engineered yeasts in a setting similar to a microbrewery can provide a more stable supply of products for the flavor and fragrance industry.
Gene sequences responsible for producing the unique flavors and fragrances of plants and other organisms can be synthesized and engineered into the genomes of yeasts. As these engineered yeasts grow and ferment sugars, they produce the fragrance and flavor compounds which can then be purified from the yeast.
Working with our partner Robertet and others, we've developed flavor and fragrance ingredients and brought them to commercial scale. To learn more about how process techniques developed in our foundry translated to fermentation at 50,000 liter scale, click here.
Cultured ingredients offer a third way for manufacturing valuable flavor and fragrance ingredients that is more renewable than chemical synthesis via petroleum and more stable and efficient than extraction from botanical sources.

Lindsey Vonn is arguably the most popular female skiing champion in the world today and her popularity is well founded. She holds the record for winning more medals in history than any other female skier in the game and she is also an Olympic Gold Medalist.
Lindsey is immensely popular not only because of her skiing accomplishments but also because she is very beautiful and uses social media to motivate her fan base all over the world. She has more than 1.7 million followers on Instagram and uses her platform to keep her fans informed of what is going on in her life.
Her fans were aware that she had decided to call time on her career and the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in Sweden was going to be her final farewell.
The 34 year old was in jeopardy of her World Championships cut short after she had a crash during the super-G race yesterday. However, being the champion that she is, she recovered and was determined to finish her career on a high note and that she did.
Vonn complete the final race of her career and finished in third place to win a bronze medal and prove to the world yet again that she is still at the top of her game and it is only injuries that has forced her to call time on her career. Vonn admitted that she was nervous during the final race of her career as she really wanted to do well and win.
The win at the World Championships gives her the distinction of being the only female skier to participate in six World Championships and win medals at all of them.
If it was up to her, she would continue to keep skiing as she believes that she has more left in her. However, her body will not allow her to keep going and that is primarily because she has suffered some nasty injuries throughout her career which has made it very difficult for her to keep competing at the highest level.
My body is broken beyond repair and it isn't letting me have the final season I dreamed of. My body is screaming at me to STOP and it's time for me to listen.

Apple's CarPlay Is a Useful Extension to Your iPhone When Driving
Let's face it; it's not safe to use your phone when you're driving. In many cases it's illegal, and it can be deadly. While Apple has recently added a Do Not Disturb While Driving feature to iOS, you may actually need to use some of the features on your phone when you're behind the wheel.
You've long been able to pair a phone to a car via Bluetooth to make and receive calls. But Apple's in-car system, CarPlay, takes this much further by offering a range of apps that can make your driving easier and more efficient. I tried it out on my new car; here's what I think.

Tesla Model 3 unveiled: But It's not a Clean Car, no Matter What Elon Musk Says
Late Thursday night, Tesla CEO and founder Elon Musk took the stage at the Tesla Design Studio to reveal the Tesla Model 3. "It's very important to accelerate the transition to sustainable transport," Musk said. "The last time there was this level of carbon concentration in the atmosphere was 11 million years ago."
"Beyond global warming there are 53,000 deaths per year from auto emissions," Musk added.
As much as I admire what Tesla is doing, the above is just bullshit. Electric cars – unless they are used in countries whose electricity comes from renewable energy – don't reduce carbon dioxide, or auto emissions, they merely displace the pollution to the place that electricity is generated. In the US, much of the electricity people use is made from coal or oil. The only country where nuclear power is used for a majority of electricity is France (around 70%), but there is still the problem of nuclear waste.
Until renewable energy is ubiquitous, all these cars do is shift pollution to new locations. Sure, it's better to get them out of cities, but if electric cars are to become common, every country in the world will need to ramp up their electrical production. Some countries can do this with renewable energy, many if not most cannot.
Oh, and apparently if you buy this car, you get a $7,500 tax credit from the federal government; or 20% of the cost of the car. So Tesla is sucking at the teat of big government, and, if the figure of 130,000 Model 3s ordered yesterday is correct, then this is costing taxpayers about $1 billion. All this for cars being bought by people who, for the most part, could afford to pay full price. That's a pretty good scam Tesla has going… (Yes, the tax credits will decrease over time, but not until the US government has paid $1.5 billion toward Tesla cars.)

Why Driverless Cars Will Screech to a Stop
Every driver makes hundreds of daily driving decisions that, strictly speaking, break driving laws (for example, crossing the yellow line to pull around a double-parked vehicle). What company is going to program its driverless cars to break the law?
Will insurance policies for driverless cars cover the car itself? Or will they cover the owner of the vehicle? Or perhaps the technology company that controls the car's routes? Who will be responsible if there is an accident? The individual owner or the the vehicle manufacturer? Or the company that designed the navigation system?
This is probably the biggest issue that will prevent or slow down the use of driverless cars. Unless they can ride on rails, there will be accidents, and there will be questions of liability.

Volkswagen says 800,000 European cars have false CO2 emissions levels too | Ars Technica
"VW is reporting that around 800,000 cars, mostly with 1.4-litre diesel engines, may have an issue with their carbon dioxide emissions as well. The two main cars affected are the VW Polo and Golf, but some cars from the Audi, Seat, and Skoda brands are also included. VW says that some 1.4-litre petrol engines may also be affected"
When the scandal first broke, I was worried, because I have a diesel Seat Ibiza (Seat is owned by VW). But then VW put up a website where you could check your VIN to find if your car was affected by the cheating software, and mine was in the clear. It turned out that the 1.4-liter engines, such as my car contains, weren't affected.
Well, now we know that Volkswagen has probably cheated with every car they have sold; not just with nitrous oxide levels, but also with CO2 levels.
I wonder what effect this is going to have on my car, and my wallet. I don't think the government here in the UK will make car-owners pay a higher road tax; the tax is based on CO2 levels, and we bought the car with the understanding that its level was as announced by the manufacturer. But I have a feeling that VW is going to have to compensate car owners, since this means the car is burning much more fuel than it should.
Liars, cheaters, and scumbags.

Column: Selfies and the history of self-portrait photography
Are selfies a side effect of digital culture? A sad form of exhibitionism? Maybe – but perhaps can also be seen as a kind of visual diary, a way to mark our short existence.

SELFIE – the Oxford Word of the Year for 2013 – is a neologism defined as "a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically one taken with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website."
The emergence of this phenomenon a few years ago was therefore dependent on advances in digital photography and mobile phone technology, as well as the rise of Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, among other sites, which supply an outlet and audience for the photos. But a tradition of self-portraiture in photography is as old as the medium, and the popularity of amateur photography only slightly less so.

According to the Grove Art Online entry on photography, "Perhaps the most popular form of early photography was the portrait. The very first portraits, especially those produced by the daguerreian process were treasured for their ability to capture the aspects of facial appearance that constitute family resemblance."
Invented by the French painter Louis Daguerre in the late 1830s, daguerreotypes, with their "cold, mirror-like appearance" were well-suited to capturing exacting likenesses of sitters. Portraits were the most commonly produced type of photographs in the first decades of photography, comprising an estimated 95% of surviving daguerreotypes. Among these are some exquisite self-portraits, including what may have been the first daguerreotype made in America, the self-portrait of the Philadelphia metalworker-turned-photographer Robert Cornelius.
Jean-Gabriel Eynard, daguerreotypist (Swiss, 1775 – 1863). Self-Portrait with a Daguerreotype of Geneva, about 1847, Daguerreotype, hand-colored. 1/4 plate Image: 9.7 x 7.3 cm (3 13/16 x 2 7/8 in.) Object (whole): 15.2 x 12.7 cm (6 x 5 in.). The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles
Many early self-portraits fall into two general categories. In the first type, which had a long tradition in painted portraits and self-portraits, the subject poses with a camera or a set of photographs, showing him as a professional of his trade. As portrait photographers competed for customers, these images demonstrated the photographer's ability to capture a flattering likeness with his technical skill and his eye for setting and pose.
The other type of self-portrait seems to have been the photographer's attempt to situate photography as a fine art, a novel idea during the era of early photography. In a fine example of this type, Albert Sands Southworth, of the firm Southworth and Hawes, showed himself as a classical sculpted portrait bust, with a far-off, romantic expression.
Although the daguerreotype was eventually replaced by other techniques (notwithstanding a 21st-century revival by Chuck Close), self-portraiture has remained one of the most interesting genres in photo history. It seems that from photography's earliest days, there has been a natural tendency for photographers to turn the camera toward themselves.
Unknown maker, American, daguerreotypist. Portrait of Unidentified Daguerreotypist, 1845, Daguerreotype, hand-colored. 1/6 plate Image: 6.7 x 5.2 cm (2 5/8 x 2 1/16 in.) Mat: 8.3 x 7 cm (3 1/4 x 2 3/4 in.). The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles
These early practitioners were either professionals with studios or "skilled amateurs" – often wealthy individuals who took up photography as a fashionable hobby. It would be a few decades before new processes and equipment brought the making of photographs to the masses. Pivotal in the development of amateur photography, George Eastman's Kodak cameras, which hit the market in 1888, were "designed for the general public, who had only to point it in the right direction and release the shutter.
When the 100-exposure roll provided with the camera had been exposed, the whole apparatus was returned to Eastman's factory, where the paper rollfilm was developed and printed, the camera reloaded and returned to the customer; 'You press the button, we do the rest' was his slogan" (quite a bit easier than the painstaking process of creating a daguerreotype or a glass-plate negative). Kodak's line of Brownie box cameras, first released in 1900 and priced at one dollar, made photography truly available to the broad public. Thus began a long era of popular photography made possible by the cheap production of cameras and efficient processing and printing of film.

The next great pivotal moment in the history of amateur photography – and perhaps photography in general – was the emergence of digital photography. Early digital cameras were available on the consumer market in the early 1990s, but it was not until technical improvements and a drop in prices over the next decade that digital photography had replaced older technologies. In 2002 more digital cameras were sold than film cameras, and Kodak, a giant in American industry for much of the 20th century, filed for bankruptcy in 2012. According to Mary Warner Marien,
…the public use of photographs has changed the medium. Where the photograph was once a tangible item, it can now exist as an array of pixels, seldom printed but collected in phones, cameras, computers and web-based image storage applications. Where once material photographs were saved, now photographs can be considered immaterial phenomena. There are more amateur photographers than ever before, and their conventions emerged in the early 21st century as powerful cultural shapers in the many branches of photographic practice.
The ease with which so many can take photographs of themselves and share them with an audience of many millions has made the selfie a "global phenomenon." On one hand, this phenomenon is a natural extension of threads in the history of photography of self-portraiture and technical innovation resulting in the increasing democratization of the medium. But on the other, the immediacy of these images – their instantaneous recording and sharing – makes them seem a thing apart from a photograph that required time and expense to process and print, not to mention distribute to friends and relatives.
The ubiquity of selfies has naturally led some to wonder if the practice is either reflecting or promoting what many see as growing narcissism in contemporary culture. But perhaps, as Jenna Wortham suggests, selfies represent a new way not only of representing ourselves to others, but of communicating with one another through images: "Rather than dismissing the trend as a side effect of digital culture or a sad form of exhibitionism, maybe we're better off seeing selfies for what they are at their best — a kind of visual diary, a way to mark our short existence and hold it up to others as proof that we were here. The rest, of course, is open to interpretation."

It was truly a delight for IndiaMART to share the stage with other prominent personalities who shared their thoughts and ideas on the future of MSMEs in India at the 9th Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit 2019.
On the 19h of January 2019, Mr. Dinesh Agarwal, Founder & CEO, IndiaMART, at the MSME Convention shared his insights and knowledge on "Marketing & Positioning in Global Value Chains".
There were several other dignitaries who at the Convention shared their thought on the rapid pace at which the MSME sector is improving, and what the sector is expected to be in the years to come.
Vibrant Gujarat Summit as an idea was conceptualized in 2003 by Hon'ble Prime Minister of India and the then Hon'ble Chief Minister of Gujarat, Mr. Narendra Modi. His primary goal was to re-establish Gujarat as a preferred investment destination within India.
Today, the Summit has completely transformed itself into a platform for brainstorming on agendas of global socio-economic development. It has also evolved itself as a stage for knowledge sharing and forging effective partnerships.
This participation increased exponentially in the 9th Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit, held in 18th- 20th January 2019, where the response received from all over the country was overwhelming. There were 42,526 registered delegates, 285 registered delegations, and 26,893 registered company.
The amalgamation of such prominent personalities to discuss on the future of MSMEs in India will enable the businesses to comprehend the future course that can be expected, and plan accordingly to experience the best out of the evolving environment.
