Rise of the machines isn't the end for manual labour

Sascha Stowasser is Director of the Düsseldorf-based Institute for Applied Work Science (IFAA) and Professor at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT)
The rapid pace of digitalisation will have a dramatic impact on the world of work. A popular view is that the advance of digitalisation, automation and "Industry 4.0" doesn't augur well for low-skilled workers in European industry, with some reports forecasting a massive contraction in the job market for low-skilled workers. According to an extremely popular 2013 study by Carl Frey and Michael Osborne, almost half of all employees in the United States could be replaced by computerised systems over the next two decades. A study presented at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos this year stated that digitalisation and automation will lead to a net loss of five million jobs in industrialised nations by 2020.
But this isn't realistic. It would be ill-advised to deal in nightmare scenarios of unemployment in the thousands or millions. We still can't confidently say whether and where jobs will be lost. In any case, no company, especially a small or medium-sized enterprise, is in a position to digitalise everything overnight, either commercially
or organisationally. There won't be wide-scale technological unemployment or factories and offices devoid of people. One survey of almost 500 companies from the metal and electrical industry, carried out for the Institute for Applied Work Science (IFAA), found that fewer than one in five companies have initiated any plans or projects for implementing digital ideas. Industry 4.0 is yet to make its presence felt across all companies, and this will remain the case for years.
The potential offered by automation for professions and workplaces is, typically, overestimated. The implementation of new technologies often fails to take sufficient account of social, legal and ethical barriers. And no conclusions can be drawn with regard to the effect on the workforce as a whole. Rather than eliminating jobs, new technologies often change the nature of work. Employees are freed up to focus on activities that can't be automated. For example, having previously centred on precision craftsmanship, the profession of watchmaking is now evolving to encompass the programming of digital models for 3D watch printing. The result is a vast increase in creative freedom.
Just as with previous technological evolutions, some roles will be eliminated. When diesel and electric locomotives came along, steam boilers – and stokers – were no longer needed. But new professions and opportunities emerge. We will need app programmers and 3D modellers. Vehicles will increasingly have electronic control systems, requiring engineers specialised in this field.
The integration of refugees can be made easier by the use of data glasses that explain work processes in various languages and media formats
But the advance of digital technologies doesn't mean the only jobs remaining will be ones requiring a high degree of technical expertise. Creativity won't be the only thing occupying the employees of the future, although the proportion of routine tasks performed by employees will decline. Some routine activities can be eliminated from simple work, thereby enabling low-skilled workers to increase their share of value added. This will help to make work productive and competitive across different levels of expertise, thereby keeping this work in Europe.
Digitalisation is expected to have another positive effect. Low-skilled workers, particularly those who are less physically able, can increasingly be positively integrated into the workforce with the help of robot-assisted work systems and body suits – "exoskeletons". These technologies lower the physical impact of ergonomically-unfavourable movements on the assembly line, reduce the strain posed by heavy weights, and lead to improved quality thanks to precision process control.
It's also conceivable that low-skilled workers will be integrated into the labour market to a greater extent as a result of digital assistance systems – tablets, smartphones, data glasses, networked monitors, and so on. Employees could be deployed more flexibly and in more varied roles as they will receive the necessary information on-site and in real time. This can happen quicker and at shorter notice, as assistance systems will massively expand the options for on-the-job training, with information provided intuitively. Like today's smartphones, the use of assistance systems must be simple and user-friendly. This includes multimedia information with extensive possibilities, including choices of languages, images, and video sequences. Even the integration of refugees can be made easier by the use of data glasses that explain work processes in various languages and media formats.
With digital technologies evolving at a considerable pace, low-skilled workers will have to develop a strong willingness to learn and adapt. Needs-orientated qualification measures, such as for operating equipment, can help support employees. The relevant learning content for digitalisation can still only be described in general terms, which makes it necessary to permanently compare training content with the relevant requirements while also focusing on the interplay between everyone in the production process.
The advance of digital technologies doesn't mean the only jobs remaining will be ones requiring a high degree of technical expertise
Digitalisation offers a number of attractive opportunities. It means greater flexibility for employees, more demanding tasks, the provision of tailored information and relief from monotonous routine work. As well as the increased availability of information, digitalisation will improve companies' coordination and communication processes. We will need many highly-qualified employees to get Industry 4.0 and digitalisation on the road, and low-skilled workers will remain in demand. But for all this optimism, there is a risk. Digitalisation could go too far if we end up shaping the work of the future so that we humans become mere appendages of intelligent digital systems and machines. To counter this, we need a fundamental debate about morality and ethics – one that takes into account not only the numerous benefits
of digitalisation, but also occupational safety.

In fact, according to the "2018 Payments Industry Report", almost 50 percent are adopting technology to automate payments validation at the point of on-boarding, especially as cross-border commerce grows. This, combined with leveraging trusted data and APIs, can accomplish validations quickly and securely, positioning you for growth and optimizing operational efficiency.
The manual work required in cases where payments fail can create a negative user experience for internal and external users alike. Lacking access to accurate information causes delays, long hours spent researching publicly-available data, and a frustrating situation for those tasked with repairs.

EAST PITTSBURGH, Pa. (AP) — For the second night, hundreds of people in Pennsylvania have taken to the streets to protest the fatal police shooting of a 17-year-old boy.
A lawyer for Antwon's family said Thursday the boy did not pose an immediate threat to anyone.
The shooting occurred just hours after the officer was sworn in on the local force.
Sometime before 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, someone fired nine .40-caliber rounds at a 22-year-old in North Braddock borough, Allegheny County police said. The victim, who returned fire, was struck and taken to a hospital. He was treated and released.
Witnesses, including one who flagged down a police officer, described the vehicle in the shooting. Thirteen minutes later, an East Pittsburgh officer saw a silver Chevy Cruze, which matched the vehicle's description, police said. The officer stopped the car around 8:40 p.m.
The officer ordered the driver out of the car and onto the ground, police said. Antwon and another passenger "bolted" from the vehicle, and the East Pittsburgh officer opened fire, striking Antwon, Allegheny County police said.
"Fleeing from a scene does not give law enforcement the right to indiscriminately shoot young boys or anyone. No one, especially children, should ever fear death at the hands of police. Lethal force should be an absolute last resort, not a first option," his statement said.
In a news conference, Allegheny County Police Superintendent Coleman McDonough said the shooting could be justified if the officer thought there was an imminent threat of death — to the officer or others — or if the fleeing suspect posed a threat. But, he said, the district attorney will ultimately decide if it was a justified use of force.
The officers involved weren't wearing bodycams, he said.
In the video, a police SUV is seen stopped in the middle of the street as another police car pulls up behind it. Two people are seen running from the Chevy Cruze. Within seconds three shots ring out. The runners appear to drop to the ground.
"All they did was run and they're shooting at them," the woman said.
The 20-year-old driver of the vehicle was later released, police said. Authorities are still searching for the other passenger.
Antwon was unarmed, McDonough told reporters. Two semiautomatic firearms were recovered from the floor of the vehicle, he said.
Based on witness statements, McDonough said, he believes officers gave Antwon verbal commands, but he didn't know the specific command.
The East Pittsburgh officer fired three times, hitting Antwon three times in various parts of his body, McDonough said.
Allegheny County officials on Thursday identified the officer as Michael Rosfeld, according to an email from the county's director of communications, Amie Downs. CNN has attempted to reach Rosfeld numerous times, but has not been successful.
The officer has been placed on administrative leave, police said. McDonough said on Wednesday that he had not been interviewed.
The officer had worked with other local departments for seven years, CNN affiliate WPXI reported. He had been sworn in that day on the East Pittsburgh police force, Mayor Louis Payne told the station.
Family attorney S. Lee Merritt said Antwon "posed no immediate threat to anyone" because he wasn't armed.
"These facts, without more, simply leave very little room to justify the use of deadly force by this officer," he said in a statement.
East Pittsburgh Police Chief Lori Fruncek, who leads a force of eight patrol officers, couldn't be reached Wednesday.
McDonough said he understands that "in today's atmosphere, any time a young man is killed, there's cause for outrage … in some areas." He asked for patience with the investigation.
In a joint statement, Payne, East Pittsburgh police and council, said they were saddened by Antwon's death.
"This is a very stressful time for our community. We are seeking truth and answers but the process takes time. We hope that everyone can respect this process. We will get through this together as a community," the statement said.
The Woodland Hills School District confirmed Antwon had attended Woodland Hills High School.
"From all accounts, he was a generous, hard-working and highly promising student," Merritt said. Assistant Superintendent Licia Lentz of the school district said Antwon was "a very bright young man" who took advanced placement classes.
The store provides food, toys, clothes, backpacks and other items to members of the community, and Antwon would offer to entertain kids while their parents picked up what they needed, she said.
"He was just a really great kid. He had these really intense, big eyes. He was very smiley, very goofy," Fetterman said.
Antwon also worked at a gym where Fetterman's children took gymnastics classes, she said.
"I just expected he would always pop in and update us on what's going on. I think about how his life was cut short and all the things we won't see him do and all of the dreams we will never see him achieve and it's a really sad day," she said.

What Ails Corporate Executive Committees?
Thread starter daftandbarmy
Army.ca Relic
Clearly, some familiar themes here with respect to various types of 'Command Teams' too:
What Ails Corporate Executive Committees?
Fragmentation among top leadership teams is widespread. CEOs should pay heed – and sharpen their most important strategy execution tool.
Alexander Hamilton, one of the United States' founding fathers, famously called energy the most important characteristic of the executive branch of government. "A feeble Executive implies a feeble execution of the government," he said in the Federalist Papers. "A feeble execution is but another phrase for a bad execution; and a government ill executed, whatever it may be in theory, must be, in practice, a bad government."
Contemporary corporate CEOs should heed Hamilton's warning. No matter how capable CEOs might be, they need the help of a trusted team: an executive committee of senior managers who report directly to them, meeting regularly to help shape the collective work of the enterprise. CEOs and their excos are the veritable energy reactors of organisations.
However, my counselling experience indicates widespread dissatisfaction with these committees among both leaders and members. Research shows that the problems faced by excos are so widespread that effective teams are rare, and work well only when they fit the CEO's leadership style.
To analyse the causes of executive committee dysfunction and propose remedies, let's first look at what separates them from teams lower in the hierarchy. For one thing, excos operate where strategic uncertainty is highest, making decisions that cover a range of external contingencies from economic (main clients and suppliers), political (e.g. relationships with governments) to social (e.g. Black Lives Matter movement).
It follows that executive committees grapple with complex decisions and tasks for which there might be no established rules and routines. Individual values and styles therefore play a crucial role. But the flip side is that differences among members might be difficult to reconcile. Meanwhile, both the substance and symbolism of the team's decisions are watched closely by the rest of the organisation.
What does an underperforming, even dysfunctional executive committee look like then? There are four common symptoms, top of which is fragmentation. Exco members have two concurrent roles: full-time head of business or functional units and part-time exco member. The former function often overshadows the latter, turning excos into a mere collective of senior executives pursuing their own agendas, with little cohesion or collaboration.
Bigger problems ensue when the CEO, hobbled by a fragmented and problematic team, makes decisions in isolation to avoid conflict. Avoidance also takes the form of exco members systematically evading confrontation among themselves. I have often seen executives going through the motions at exco meetings without tackling any controversial issues, trying to avoid retaliation and certainly not asking for help. They just want to appear positive during their "air time" and for the session to finish as quickly as possible.
The third problem is that, even today, many senior executives have built their careers on being non-consultative and individualistic – a style not so compatible with the teamwork needed in an executive committee. Associated with such individualism is rivalry for the top job. Competition among senior executives for the CEO job may undermine collaboration before succession and even after, due to lingering animosity.
Building a better executive team
The most fundamental rule of the design of top management teams is the primacy of the CEO. Richard Hackman, a prominent expert on teams, and his co-authors observe in their book Senior Leadership Teams: What It Takes to Make Them Great, "there is no fixed set of steps to follow in structuring, launching, and leading senior teams…great leaders draw on their particular skills and preferences to create these conditions in ways that are tuned to the unique circumstances in which their team operate."
Quoting Tom Wilson, CEO of Allstate, corporate consultant Bob Frisch likewise emphasises the CEO's role in his book: "Ed Brennan (the late CEO of American department store chain Sears, Roebuck and Co.) told me that an organisational structure should be based on who you are – what your personality is as a leader. I used to think that was wrong, but now I realise that's the only way an organisation can function."
CEOs may find the following recommendations on creating and running executive committees helpful. First, the formal exco should comprise executives that support the CEO in decisions that are critical, strategic and integral to the organisation. When that is not possible – since new CEOs often inherit a team – leaders may consider having an ad hoc team or even a "kitchen cabinet" of trusted executives for key decisions. More extensive groups with open and evolving membership can focus on counselling, generating ideas and other functions.
Second, excos should have only five to eight members. Any bigger, like the 20-member boards of some commercial banks, would only render it sluggish.
Third, remember that excos are not representative but decision-making teams. Instead of including all heads of business units or functions, it should only comprise those with a generalist purview and organisational integration capabilities. Others may be invited to sit in at meetings for specific issues.
Fourth, the top team should adopt different decision-making methodologies depending on the issue at hand: consensus for non-critical topics, dialectic for strategic debates and so on.
Fifth, executives should be evaluated and adequately compensated for their exco contributions. Having "skin in the game" would induce them to take the organisation's perspective rather than pursuing parochial interests.
Sixth, CEOs could use the executive committee to identify and groom potential successors or to fast-track the careers of the most promising members. For instance, members could take turns to chair meetings for non-critical issues.
Finally, and by no means the least important recommendation, increase diversity at the top. Fully a quarter of Stoxx Europe 600 leading companies do not have any woman in their executive board or committee. This will soon change, at least in Germany, which is introducing a mandatory quota for female representation in listed firms' senior management. Legal and ethical considerations aside, diversity in top management has also been shown to be good for innovation and the bottomline.
To lead with energy, CEOs cannot bank on their sheer force of personality and talent alone. Well-constituted executive committees attuned to CEOs and the needs of the organisation can prevent the executive from ever turning feeble.

I always found that the concept of "fragmentation" as he describes is the worst enemy. Regardless of whether there are a plethora of "blue sky" meetings or not, if senior executives spend too much time working in the weeds fighting off today's alligators rather than dealing with the depth of the swamp three years from now, nothing get's done unless you have someone who's whole job description is implementing future plans. Very few agencies have that.

(INDONESIA) – In many Muslim countries, the majority of people still live in poverty and lack access to financial services, include insurance, which can help them to prevent their worsening economic conditions. In some countries such as Indonesia, creating insurance products in accordance with Islamic principles and can touch the lower middle income people is a necessity that slowly started to gain attention and priority.
Awareness for micro insurance, in general, and Islamic micro insurance in particular is still very low. This will affect SME's decision to buy Takaful products, although the affordable premiums and significant benefit are the main determinant of preference between conventional insurance and Islamic insurance.
In order to integrate equation viewpoint of Islamic micro insurance between BMT and insurance companies, Islamic Economic Society (MES) actively held business matching in a number of areas in the country, which was attended by dozens of BMT. Among the business matching agenda in a number of areas which began in 2013 until April 2014 MES already held 3 Business Matching in 3 regions, there are Malang (28/10/2013), Batam (15/04/2014), and Padang (23/04/2014).
Islamic Micro Insurance Business Matching Event is a series of roadshow events by MES Takaful Seminar 2014 in six cities across Indonesia. "Islamic Micro Insurance Business Matching in Padang is the second held in 2014 after last week held in Batam and still will be held again in four cities. They are Banjarmasin, Palangkaraya, Medan and Cirebon," added Herry Aslam, Executive Program Officer of Islamic Economic Society (MES) in Jakarta.
Through these efforts, MES hopes to lead Indonesian BMT opinion that Islamic micro insurance is very important as one of the risk mitigation strategy for business customers. By doing so, it is expected to rise awareness or consciousness of the perpetrators of Islamic microfinance in the country to risk management. During this Business Matching agenda, dozens of BMT were given an insight into the importance of risk mitigation through insurance customers and they are ready to use the Islamic micro insurance. A total of 20 BMT in Malang, 4 BMT in Batam and 41 BMT in in Padang began to increase awareness for the use of Islamic micro insurance instruments.
Many BMT in Padang, West Sumatera even explore the possibility of cooperation in micro takaful product as it has been initiated by the MES West Sumatra Regional Board. Rais, Executive Secretary of the MES West Sumatra Regional Board explained "Business Matching was attended by 41 managers and administrators from BMT invited. From 41 BMT who attended this event, all agreed to use micro insurance product, because it is considered very useful for us as managers and customers, especially for BMT. " He further explained "Islamic micro insurance is a new thing for the managers of BMT in Padang City, this forum has become a chance for BMT managers in Padang, especially for the protection of customers which previously have been unthinkable".
Ramadhani, a senior practitioner in BMT Padang Pauh district expressed her enthusiasm for the use of Islamic micro insurance as a means of protecting their customers from the risk of non performing financing.
"Communication between BMT and Islamic insurance company in Business Matching like this is needed. The BMT in the future will use Islamic micro-insurance products to protect financing problems becaus which have failed to pay due to death or businesses risk such as fire, " he explained. With the development of Islamic Microfinance Institutions all over Indonesia, MES will seriously explore the possibility of cooperation between Islamic insurance company that provides micro insurance products to the entire of BMT in the country through a road show to various regions. This move, is expected to bring together the needs between the two parties in one forum.
"MES will continue hold the Business Matching Sharia Microfinance Institutions (BMT) perpetrators in 2014 in various regions in Indonesia. They are Banjarmasin, Palangkaraya, Medan and Cirebon and it is welcome for Islamic insurance companies that want to cooperate." Said Ari Permana, deputy Executive Director of the Executive Committee of Islamic banking. "The development of Islamic micro finance institutions in West Sumatra is quite good in terms of the increase in assets, and financing. For the future it should be developed to provide protection to customers in the form of Islamic micro insurance. In addition, the Islamic microfinance industry in West Sumatra also get support from the local government, especially from elected mayor of Padang, who is the one of BMT founding father in West Sumatra, "said Reza Sadat, Secretary General MES West Sumatra Regional Board.


We often need to store the information received from the network to retrieve that later. Although we can store and read data directly but by using data access object to store information enables us to do data operations without exposing details of the database. Using data access object is also a best practice in software engineering. Recently I modified Connfa app to store the data received in Open Event format. In this blog, I describe how to use data access object.
The goal is to abstract and encapsulate all access to the data and provide an interface. This is called Data Access Object pattern. In a nutshell, the DAO "knows" which data source (that could be a database, a flat file or even a WebService) to connect to and is specific for this data source. It makes no difference in applications when it accesses a relational database or parses xml files (using a DAO). The DAO is usually able to create an instance of a data object ("to read data") and also to persist data ("to save data") to the datasource.
Find the complete class to see the detailed methods to implement search conditions, get key columns, create instance etc. here.
Here is a general method to get the data from the database. Where getFacade() for the given layer element, this method returns the requested facade object to represent the passed in layer element.
Now we can create an instance to use these methods instead of directly using SQL operations. This functions gets the data and sort it accordingly.


JOHN 3: 16 = YAHWEH SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES ON HIM, SHALL NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.
PROVERBS 12: 10 = A RIGHTEOUS MAN REGARDS THE LIFE OF HIS BEAST: BUT THE TENDER MERCIES OF THE WICKED, ARE CRUEL.
IT IS OBVIOUS BY MY CAT, BLACKIE, THAT HE LOVES ME SO MUCH, THAT IF I AM NOT AT HOME, HE WAITS PATIENTLY FOR ME TO COME HOME AND COMES IN THE CABIN WHEN I DO, TO SHOW HE LOVES ME AND I LOVE HIM.
WHEN I STROKE HIS BEAUTIFUL HAIR AND BODY, HE LOVES IT AND CAN'T GET ENOUGH LOVE. HE IS ALL I HAVE, AS FAR AS AN ANIMAL GOES.
I LOVE DOGS TO DEATH, BUT I HAVE LEARNED AFTER LOSING SEVERAL OF MY BUDDIES, MY DOGS, IT HITS ME HARDER, THAN LOSING A CAT, THOUGH THIS TIME, I HAVE FOUND BLACKIE TO BE HEAVEN SENT, HE IS LIKE NO OTHER CAT I HAVE EVER HAD.
I HAVE DECIDED NOT TO HAVE A DOG ANYMORE BECAUSE OF THE PAIN IT CAUSES ME, IF IT DIES.
SOMETIMES I THINK WHY DO I HAVE SUCH PAIN FOR AN ANIMAL SOMETIMES, MORE THAN A HUMAN BEING? MOSTLY I GUESS IS THAT, AN ANIMAL LOVES YOU SO FAITHFULLY LIKE YAH'WEH, AND JESUS, YAH'SHUA, DOES.
WITH HUMANS PASSING ON IN THE DEATH OF THEIR BODIES, I KNOW THAT WHEN THEIR BODY DIES, THEY DON'T, AND THEY ARE WITH YAH'WEH. SO THE PAIN FOR HUMANS IS NOT SO HOPELESS, LIKE IT IS FOR AN ANIMAL.
WHAT I AM EXPRESSING IS NOTHING NEW TO A LOT OF YOU BECAUSE LIKE ME, YOU LOVE YOUR ANIMALS AND CATS AND DOGS TOO.
THE REASON IT IS HARD TO LOSE AN ANIMAL TO DEATH, IS THAT YOU LOSE THAT UNCONDITIONAL LOVE THEY SHOW, WHETHER YOU FEEL BAD, OR SAD, OR HAPPY, OR BLUE, THEY WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.
YAH'WEH, AND JESUS, YAH'SHUA, ARE LIKE THAT, THEY LOVE US SO MUCH, LIKE NO OTHER PERSON IN THE WORLD BECAUSE THEY CREATED US AND MADE US, AND DIED FOR US, AND MADE PROMISES TO US, THAT ONLY THEY UNDERSTAND.
THOUGH YAHWEHS LOVE IS CONDITIONAL, BASED ON YOUR RECEIVING HIS LOVE, THEN HIS LOVE BECOMES UNCONDITIONAL.
WE ALL LIKE SHEEP HAVE GONE ASTRAY AND THE SHEPHERD, JESUS, YAH'SHUA, WILL ALWAYS SEARCH FOR US UNTIL HE FINDS US, AND THEN, HE WILL HOLD US IN HIS ARMS AND SAY, WHY DID YOU STRAY FROM THE ONE WHO LOVES YOU SO AND DIED FOR YOU AND YOUR SINS?
IS IT BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT I WOULDN'T CARE IF YOU STRAYED OFF INTO THE WORLD AND GAVE YOUR ALLEGIANCE TO MY ENEMY, SATAN, THE DEVIL. OR IS IT BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T LOVE ME, AS MUCH AS I HAVE LOVED YOU?
THERE IS NOTHING YOU HAVE DONE, OR WILL DO, THAT WILL KEEP ME FROM LOVING YOU BUT, IF YOU DON'T RETURN MY LOVE WITH THE SAME PASSION I HAVE FOR YOU, WE CAN'T BE FRIENDS AND MY LOVE FOR YOU WILL GO ON, THOUGH YOU ARE ABSENT FROM THE FLOCK.
IF YOU DECIDE TO RETURN TO ME AND THE FLOCK, AND REPENT, SAY YOU ARE SORRY WITH A REPENTANT HEART, I WILL FORGIVE YOU AND LOVE YOU EVEN MORE.
REMEMER YAH'WEH, THE FATHER IN HEAVEN, IS LOVE, AND AS A CHILD AND THE IMAGE OF HIM, I, JESUS, YAH'SHUA, TOO AM LOVE.

Spring is here and it's time for Spring Cleaning!
Spring is usually the time when everyone likes to get their homes thoroughly cleaned after being cooped up for the winter. After the Holidays and Busy schedules it gets harder to clean your home like you really want to.
Washing Windows, Walls, Cabinets and Baseboards. These things can collect dust and clean so easily with a little bit of soap and water.
Carpets and other Flooring should be cleaned and polished.
Ceiling Fans and AC Vents collect so much dust throughout the months. Wiping these down are very easy as well.
Scheduling a day for this to be done will help in getting it checked off your to-do list. Making it a family event will even make the process quicker and could be fun.

Quite often, we hear cyber breach incidents that happened were due to user carelessness. Such as indiscriminate clicking of hyperlinks in emails.
A commonly heard quandary among IT executives is probably deciding whether to adopt automatic roll-out of 'security patches' on software of servers and applications, which can create heavy consequences if bad things happen.
In the world of automation and software deployment efficiency, this commonly heard quandary seems hard to believe.
Isn't it a no-brainer to automate updating of patches and security flaws in computer systems? Many naturally think.
One major faux pas in cybersecurity could be pointed to Equifax, whose web server was hacked in 2017 due to an 'unintentional lapse' in IT operations. The common IT lingo for IT ops in this is known as 'patch management' for industry folks.
For those who are not familiar with Equifax, it is a US-based listed company and a credit bureau which provides individual credit report and business credit ratings. Equifax has around 800 million consumers and close to 90 million business records.
A quick rundown about Equifax cybersecurity incident; the website which Equifax's web portal was hosted is an open-source web application (app) known as Apache. It was attacked via a loophole in the web server and hackers made away with its databases containing its customers' personal details and classified information.
Equifax's IT team was aware of the vulnerability to their web server and in fact, downloaded the security plugin months before the attack occurred.
But they didn't install it!
Many then asked the question why Equifax didn't proceed to roll out the patch, which became the crux of the issue.
Fingers pointed to Equifax's lackadaisical attitude towards security hygiene.
Some industry watchers I spoke with commented that this was akin to buying a padlock for the front gate of a house, but left the padlock in the car for months before the house got burglarized.
But before you readily heap blames at Equifax IT staff, let's pause for a moment and ask if, security fixes are simple, easy and straightforward to patch? This question might not be straightforward for laymen to answer.
In the open-source world of web server software, there are step-by-step instructions provided for web masters and IT administrators to patch up security 'holes'.
Reporters from USA Today interviewed industry experts and some opined that efforts to roll out patches are not as linear as many might think.
Open-source web server app such as Apache, are free and quite naturally, captures a large percentage of the global market share. But could such freely distributed app be precisely the reason why it can be tedious to work on when upgrades are concerned?
This brings me to wonder, for as long as I can remember, many IT professionals have argued the merits of open-source against proprietary systems, largely from the perspective that upfront financial cost can be prohibitive for the latter.
In the context of web server software, a clear distinction between Linux-based and Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS), has been in the battlefield for web hosting supremacy in the past two decades.
If the remarks made by an anonymous IT professional to USA Today holds true, would there be a difference then, that proprietary web server app has the advantage when it comes to security fixes?
Some IT professionals I spoke with shared that though Linux-based software is free from a license-charging perspective, it is not exactly free as support cost is levied upon, as an option.
And in this case, wouldn't the business and operating model between open-source and proprietary app be the key difference?
And in view of cyber threats becoming more pervasive, the decision to choose between proprietary and open-source might become more obvious.
In our hyperconnected world today, cybersecurity is a universal conversation whether a user is a student or a corporate citizen.
Many are aware of the danger, risk and vulnerability. And as equally, many also take chances based on over 3 billion connected users in the world today, that they would not be that 'unlucky' to be the next victim of cybercrime.
Whichever side of cybersecurity you are at, this article aims to demystify some misconceptions about website security.
There are many dimensions to cybersecurity, digital assets and data protection. This post only touches on one aspect, Secure Socket Layer, more commonly known as SSL certificates.
If our data moves to the cloud, our organization will no longer have control over our technology.
Cloud migration is too much for my organization to handle.

Fourth Debate Keeps With Negative Tone
by Hugh McQuaid October 9, 2014, 6:58 pm January 21, 2021, 6:35 pm
Gov. Dannel Malloy and Tom Foley (Hugh McQuaid Photo)
Between personal attacks and accusations of lying, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and Republican Tom Foley sparred over the mental health response to the Newtown shooting and changes to Connecticut's liquor laws during a Thursday debate.
The fourth debate between Foley and Malloy was sponsored by the Connecticut Broadcasters Association and held at the Hartford Hilton in front of a small audience. Moderator Colin McEnroe, a radio show host on WNPR, opened the event with a joke about candidates running positive, issue-based campaigns. Unfortunately, he said those candidates were running in Montana.
And it wasn't long before Connecticut's candidates were back on the attack.
"Governor Malloy can't seem to distinguish between what he wants to be true and what is actually true," Foley said about six minutes into the debate, in response to a question on unfunded pension liabilities. ". . . Governor Malloy was recently named worst governor in the United States of America by a prominent national journal."
Malloy waited until Foley brought up the article a second time, to call it's publisher, the National Review, a "right-wing, tea bag organization."
"You know it, I let you repeat the story twice. Why don't you tell the whole story when you tell stories?" Malloy said.
On a question about the negativity of the race, Foley accused Malloy of "cheapening the debate" and "insulting voters." He suggested Malloy sign a "truce" he brought with him. Malloy didn't bite.
Gov. Malloy (Hugh McQuaid Photo)
"You have spent two years attacking my integrity and my truthfulness and now because we're pushing back a little bit, you're the bully in the play yard who wants to call a peace now because finally someone's answering what you've said for years about me," he said.
Alcohol Laws
Malloy and Foley took questions on a few topics that had not been raised in the previous three debates. For instance, they were asked whether they would back more changes to the state's alcohol laws.
Malloy, who signed a bill in 2012 that scrapped Connecticut's long-standing Sunday alcohol sales prohibition, said he would continue to try to "modernize" state liquor laws. He added that he would work with package store owners and the alcohol industry on the issue.
"I've pledged to work with them, but I've got to tell you, people are pretty darn happy they can buy liquor on a Sunday," Malloy said.
Foley said Malloy had "a short memory" and recalled the governor's battle with package store owners over changes he proposed to state alcohol laws. Foley said he would side with the package stores and reject further changes.
"This governor tried to change those laws, which would have driven those people out of business," he said. "I will support certainty and the understanding that we're not going to willy-nilly go out and change laws that affect people who've made investments, in some cases over several generations, in businesses."
Malloy said he would "side with the consumer."
"We shouldn't be paying $7 more for a half gallon of spirits in Connecticut than they are in Massachusetts. And before Tom says it, it has nothing to do with taxes," he said.
Every debate so far has touched on the gun law passed in response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Thursday's debate covered much of the same territory, but Malloy and Foley engaged in a back-and-forth over the availability of mental health services for Adam Lanza, the shooter.
Foley said the bill did not address Lanza's mental health issues.
"Sometimes I can't believe the things you say, Tom," Malloy responded. "The young man, who used these unbelievable weapons that could get hundreds of bullets off in a few moments, had all the access he ever needed to mental health. His parents were wealthy. They had great insurance plans. There was nothing in his background that would have prevented him from getting any treatment that they or he would have wanted."
Malloy said the problem stemmed from the shooter's access to an "arsenal of weapons" owned by his mother. He said the gun restrictions in the 2013 law made sense and have had an impact.
Tom Foley (Hugh McQuaid Photo)
Foley disagreed, saying the shooter's mother was trying to get her son into a long-term care facility she did not have access to. He said he has had mental health problems in his own family.
"I know from my personal experience. I think it's rather insulting for you to say as the governor of this state, when I know it isn't true, that families have access to the mental health support they need," he said. "You're grandstanding and you know nothing about what you're talking about."
Malloy defended his administration's work to expand access to healthcare, including the state's implementation of the Affordable Care Act.
"Don't showboat this, Tom. You have your beliefs and I have mine. I will never, ever, ever repeal the gun law. Tom will," he said.
The candidates' negative tone was felt in most every question. When McEnroe asked about the candidates' personal faith, they used it as an opportunity to critique each other.
Malloy answered that he was raised Catholic and believed in the "goodness of men and women." He quickly pivoted to Foley's reaction to an executive order he had issued to prepare the state for the risk of the Ebola virus. He said Foley laughed about it.
"If that's Tom's management style, if that's how he would prepare for a crisis which is literally on our doorstep, then you don't want him to be the person you have as governor," he said.
Meanwhile, Foley seemed to use the opportunity to question Malloy's parenting. After last week's contentious debate, blogger Kevin Rennie questioned whether Foley would bring up the legal troubles of Malloy's son.
"I think it would be interesting to ask these candidates. How do you feel about parenting? How have you done as a parent?" Foley said. "I think that would give voters tremendous insight."
The comments came in response to the debate's last question and there was not adequate time for Malloy to rebut Foley's answer. After the debate, Foley said he was not familiar with Malloy's family life.
"I don't know. I don't know that much about his family," he said.

Insider Economy Limassol mayor Nicolaides angry with The Times over misleading base report
Limassol mayor Nicolaides angry with The Times over misleading base report
Limassol mayor Nicos Nicolaides is angry with The Times accusing the British paper of distorting his statements on Akrotiri military base, located a few kilometres outside the city.
Under the headline 'City of Dreams' plan puts RAF Akrotiri at risk', the paper had the mayor warning that development being observed in the area where the multimillion-pound casino-resort will operate and which is expected to gain further momentum could force the closure of the nearby military base.
The report also quoted Nicolaides saying future generations would ridicule British troops being based in Cyprus, and calling for a resolution to end the arrangement.
The mayor told Insider on Wednesday that in his letter to The Times he stressed that the statements were "totally distorted" and that he only referred to the anachronistic nature of a military base in modern Cyprus.
"The report is totally misleading. I have never said that any development in Limassol, either ongoing or planned, is directed against the British bases," he said. "Asked in general about the issue of British bases, I said that the existence of military bases in a sovereign country such as Cyprus is now an anachronism that should be terminated at some stage in the future. I have demanded from The Times to correct their report," he added.
The ambitious casino-resort development within the vicinity of Akrotiri base is a project that will exceed half a billion euros with substantial short and long term benefits to the local economy.
The casino is expected to operate within 2021 and to attract over 300,000 new visitors to Cyprus. Over the years, the casino will employ some 11,000 employees and create about 2,400 permanent jobs upon completion.

Q: What is the Linux equivalent of bootinfo command? bootinfo for AIX:

...shows whether the hardware in use is 32-bit or 64-bit.

What command/utility for Linux would do this job?

A: Usually uname -m should do the trick, as should arch.
The output of both of these commands will tell you the architecture for which the kernel was built.  Whether this is 32 or 64 bit is usually pretty clear (x86_64 and ia64 are two possible 64-bit architectures).  However, note that you could have a 32-bit kernel while running on 64-bit hardware.  If you really want to know about the hardware try looking at either
less /proc/cpuinfo
if the "flags" line has 'lm' in it, then it is 64 bit.
Or, if you have lshw
lshw -class processor
and look at the "width" line.
For both of these options, grep can be employed to quickly get the answer without looking at the output.

A: There are several possible answers depending on what exactly you want to know (I don't know which one AIX's bootinfo corresponds to).

*

*You can see whether the CPU is 64-bit, 32-bit, or capable of both by checking the flags line in /proc/cpuinfo. You have to know the possible flags on your architecture family. For example, on i386/amd64 platforms, the lm flag identifies amd64-capable CPUs (CPUs that don't have that flag are i386-only).

*You can see whether the kernel is 32-bit or 64-bit by querying the architecture with uname -m. For example, i[3456]86 is are 32-bit while x86_64 is 64-bit. Note that on several architectures, a 64-bit kernel can run 32-bit userland programs, so even if the uname -m shows a 64-bit kernel, there is no guarantee that 64-bit libraries will be available.

*You can see what is available in userland by querying the LSB support with the lsb_release command. More precisely, lsb-release -s prints a :-separated list of supported LSB features. Each feature has the formm module-*version*-architecture. For example, availability of an ix86 C library is indicated by core-2.0-ia32, while core-2.0-amd64 is the analog for amd64. Not every distribution declares all the available LSB modules though, so more may be available than is detectable in this way.

*You can find out the preferred word size for development (assuming a C compiler is available) by compiling a 5-line C program that prints sizeof(void*) or sizeof(size_t).

FIGHT FOR OUR REEF: TALKS WITH AMCS
Many things can happen in a lifetime – leaders come and go, comets pass, fashions change. The destruction of one of the world's most complex eco-systems, however, shouldn't be one of them. And yet tragically that's what the Great Barrier Reef is facing.
At home by the beach in Byron Bay, Auguste the Label keeps the ocean close to its sandy heart, which is why we've been working closely with the Australian Marine Conservation Society throughout 2017 to support the incredible work that they do.
Water child, wonderful human and Great Barrier Reef campaigner Shannon Hurley took the time to tell us more about the AMCS and its conservation projects. Read the interview below.
Tell us about your role with the AMCS.
As a Great Barrier Reef community campaigner with AMCS, I lead our community outreach program in South East QLD, inspiring the community to take action so that our leaders are prioritising the future of our Great Barrier Reef. Our active volunteer program empowers people to get involved in anything from film nights, stalls, meeting MPs, to helping out in the office on the campaign to save our precious ocean heritage.
When did you first realise ocean conservation was something you wanted to be a part of?
When I studied animal science at university in Melbourne, I originally wanted to become a vet – like most animal lovers. It wasn't until I started undertaking some marine subjects through my uni degree that I realised how much I loved learning about this magical underwater world. Not long after I learnt to scuba dive and when I plunged in for myself, it was full steam ahead from there – there was nothing else I would rather do in my life than to protect our vital and threatened blue planet.
What is the greatest achievement you've seen come out of the organisation since joining as a reef campaigner?
In July 2017, I was lucky enough to go to the 2017 World Heritage Committee meeting in Poland, where the future of the world's coral reefs was being considered by the world's leaders. The committee, made up of 21 different countries, had a choice to make at the meeting – were they brave enough to hold global leaders to account for the impact of climate change on our world heritage Great Barrier Reef?
After a week of meetings and many meaningful conversations with global representatives, the final decision came down:Countries must act to reduce carbon emissions to keep warming to below 1.5 degrees so that the world's coral reefs have a chance at survival. This significant decision wouldn't have happened if ocean lovers hadn't chipped in to help us get our Reef Rescue Mission to Poland, if we hadn't been there and talked with these people. It reinforced how powerful a conversation can be. Never believe that talking to people doesn't make an impact!
What is it like visiting the reef now, compared to say 30 years ago?
I'm not even 30 years old yet, so I can only speak from now compared to 10 years ago, but when I first saw the Reef I was 20 years old and it was the most magical experience of my life. So many Reef outcrops, beaming with fish life, sharks, healthy coral – it was as if I had been finally been set free and could explore my new playground.
Since the coral bleaching has occurred over the last 2 years, we are left with many white skeletons and dead corals. It brings me to tears to think about how this dramatic change has happened in just a couple of years. The good news is that we still have over half of the corals on the Reef still left, and if we act they can have the time to recover. That is something that's worth fighting for.
What is it about the ocean that keeps drawing you back?
There is some unspoken energy that radiates from the oceans that just makes me feel great. I can't explain what it is, but any time I am having one of those days, being in or even seeing the oceans soothes me and reminds me of why I am dedicating my time to protect it. Seeing the array of different creatures which call it home continue to amaze me, from the tiny little blob like animals that make me feel like I am in some alien film, to swimming with sharks – everything is just so cool!
The individual can feel pretty hopeless when it comes to protecting our oceans, especially with issues as widespread as coral bleaching and water quality. What can we do to help the cause?
Every year we can buy for our Reef to have a future matters – there are so many wonderful programs researching what it will take to protect our precious coral reefs. There are so many ways you can help.
Getting active in a local group that is working to protect the oceans is the most important thing you can do. The oceans are something that provide life for all of us, and if we don't invest in their future now, we risk losing our precious ocean critters.

We can do this, we just need to stick together. People power always triumphs.


I was given a week to think up and create a range of inventions for Blue Peter viewers who have to wait in the cold for a bus. The inventions aim to tackle some of the most annoying problems faced at a drafty bus stop and showcase the design and prototyping process.
Wearing gloves in the cold can bring it's own problems. It can be tricky going through a bag or wallet looking for a bus pass. My solution is to have a transparent pocket so your bus pass will always be to hand (literally) and can be shown to the bus driver easily.
To help you to be able to use your smartphone in the cold, the fingertips of the thumb and forefinger can be folded back to enable you to touch the screen and "pinch and zoom".


We always love it when Rattletree plays Empire. We're big fans! Rattletree is one of ATX's most UNIQUE sounds, blending electronic music with traditional music of Zimbabwe! Get ready to DANCE.
…keeping the Shona music movement alive and growing in the Southwest!
Rattletree is a "must see". They are a high energy fusion of African and other world influences that is immediately accessible, and rousing.
I AM totally amazed at the size of their Marimbas!! WOW -it's almost Surreal ~ you've really got to see this!!! The sounds are Amazing & So Much fun to dance with!
It was a sight to see and a unique joy to hear!
Marimba and electronica may not be musical terms associated with one another, but Rattletree Marimba, based in Austin, has earned a reputation for fusing giant, hand-made mallet percussion instruments with hypnotic grooves that make you want to get up and dance.

Featured on WWOZ, New Orleans.
Letter of recommendation from the principal of Park Crest Middle School.
Rattletree was the perfect pick to kick-off our civic engagement project on campus. The musicians were engaging and extremely talented. The band's music appealed across generational and cultural divides, and they even got a bunch of timid college students out of their seats and on the dance floor.
-Kelli Arena, Executive Director of the Global Center for Journalism and Democracy.
Rattletree is authentic Zimbabwean marimba with a twist. It's impossible to resist the African beat commanding you to move along with the energetic music.
The more I listened to Chamukwenjere the wider my frequencies became, which means that I could go to higher planes of existence. The song is a vehicle to higher astral realm. It is simply beyond words.
Our members are still talking about how much they enjoyed the fun, high-energy music.
…if you happen to be at one of their shows and you're not dancing/grooving in some way, there's no hope for you, you're already dead!
Rattletree's marimba demonstrations provided the perfect musical backdrop to our International Marketplace! Their inviting attitude about the marimbas helped students provide their own soundtrack to the event.
I was extremely impressed with the craftsmanship of the marimbas! The show was mesmerizing. The music was so beautiful and hypnotic, most people couldn't stop dancing and they were fabulous to watch. Looking forward to another show!!
I've heard all the best players of Zimbabwean music for over 20 years, and Joel Laviolette is a serious chain in the link of it's continuity.
Fabulous sounds. Fascinating seeing these lily white guys sing and play African music with as much passion and talent as if they were from the continent.

The creation of a virtual child
Justine Cassell programs virtual peers for children to help them learn
Illustration: Mrzyk & Moriceau for BOLD
by Meeri Kim
The development of new technology is often followed quickly by claims about how it will revolutionize education for the masses. After World War II, the filmstrip projector gained popularity in classrooms and promised to change forever the way students learn. Then videocassettes, laserdiscs, and DVDs became the latest and greatest in educational technology — that is, until computers arrived on the scene.
While every advance brings forward a better, faster machine, many experts would argue that the accompanying educational revolutions have failed to happen as predicted. According to Justine Cassell, the Associate Dean for Technology Strategy and Impact in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, the aspect of social interaction has been one of the most important missing links.
"What is the problem with these educational revolutions? They are new technologies but rely on extremely old, and I would say outdated, models of pedagogy," said Cassell during her keynote talk at the Society for Research in Child Development's special topic meeting, Technology and Media in Children's Development. "Because as we all know, we do not learn by having knowledge poured into us. We learn by having a belief that is confronted by an alternative belief, and one that has more evidence in its favor."
"Never before have we had such power in our pockets"

Technologies can augment learning for children with autism
Interview by Sabine Gysi / October 4, 2017
Personalized learning – a data revolution
by Amy Ogan / June 26, 2017
Her research has shown that the types of social interactions important to learning — for instance, storytelling or discussion of the material — don't have to be strictly human-to-human. For over two decades, Cassell has built virtual humans with conversational, social, and narrative intelligence called Embodied Conversational Agents (ECAs). Although ECAs are restricted to a screen, they are capable of interacting with humans using both language and nonverbal behavior.
How to build a virtual peer
More recently, her work has focused on the ECA as a "virtual peer" for children to help them learn. In this application, ECAs can collaborate with or be tutored by students to enhance their grasp of skills and domains. The hope is that teaching computers how to think will allow children to delve into the material on a deeper level themselves. Virtual peers are based on extensive study of human peers engaged in collaborative tasks, both in and out of the classroom. That study includes analysis of children's language, as well as of their nonverbal behavior and the ways in which they collaborate (or don't) and learn (or don't).
For instance, Alex is a virtual peer based on an ethnographic and sociolinguistic analysis of African American children between the ages of 8 and 10. In a 2013 study, Cassell and her colleagues found that children who natively spoke African American Vernacular English (AAVE) demonstrated the strongest performance on a science task when the virtual peer used AAVE rather than the standard English dialect.
"We do not learn by having knowledge poured into us. We learn by having a belief that is confronted by an alternative belief, and one that has more evidence in its favor."
More recently, a longitudinal study demonstrated that gains in science reasoning over a five-week period were stronger for children who interacted with an AAVE-speaking virtual peer than they were for children who interacted with a virtual peer that spoke MAE. In addition, children who worked with the AAVE-speaking peer had more positive language ideologies by the end of the study – that is, they did not share the negative attitudes towards their own dialect shown by children who worked with the MAE-speaking virtual peer.
Such results challenge the cultural assumptions made when developing educational technologies and suggest that a more tailored learning experience makes children better able to grasp concepts. Instead of assuming that all children grow up in a standard English dialect household, educational software that uses their native AAVE in some contexts could help boost African American students' learning.
Cassell began creating virtual humans in 1993. After graduate school, as a professor of linguistics, psychology, and French at Penn State University, she struggled to model the relationship between verbal and nonverbal behavior in adults and children. Cassell decided to seek answers from the world-renowned computer science department at the University of Pennsylvania, where she went to spend a sabbatical year. Starting from scratch, she began to cobble together a virtual human.
Then in 2000, after having moved to a faculty position at the MIT Media Lab, she began building virtual peers after reading research by psychologist Marjorie Taylor on children's creation of imaginary companions.
"I was really affected by her research showing that children with imaginary playmates did better at all kinds of abstract tasks," Cassell said. "And in a sense, a virtual peer is an imaginary playmate that is given some kind of graphical existence on the screen."
"The creation and use of virtual peers may preserve the value of social interaction and engagement in education tech — while also teaching us about what makes us human."
The first step in making a virtual peer is the painstaking cataloging and scrutiny of interactions, both verbal and nonverbal, between real children. The methodology involves witnessing child-child interactions, building formal models based on the data, and then using those models to develop algorithms that govern a virtual peer. Subsequently, once a prototype of the virtual peer is built, it continues to be tweaked and refined as real children interact with the computer program.
"We look at every video that we've collected in one-thirtieth of a second granularity. So we look at every eye gaze shift, every smile, every head nod. We look at every posture shift and hand movement," she said. "We look at all the nouns the children produce, we look at conversational strategies and their functions. We end up with a multilevel, multimodal model of dyadic peer interaction."
Using virtual peers to help children with autism
One of Cassell's interests is the idea of rapport. Her lab first developed a theory of how rapport is built, maintained, and destroyed among teens by annotating interactions between high school student pairs during peer tutoring tasks. A 2014 study outlined a model of rapport management, which included elements of mutual attentiveness and coordination, while another paper that same year presented a computational architecture that allows virtual agents to enhance, maintain, and destroy long-term rapport with their users.
Outside of science and literacy skills, Cassell has also explored the use of virtual peers to help children with autism practice social interaction.
"One of the things that we found quite by accident was that children with high-functioning autism or Asperger's are more likely to show sophisticated social skills interacting with a virtual peer than with a real peer," she said.
However, Cassell's goal is not to consign children with high-functioning autism or Asperger's to a life of interacting only with virtual peers. Her 2008 study had children with autism engage with both a virtual and a human peer in a collaborative narrative intervention. Contingent discourse and better topic management were more likely to occur over the course of interaction with a virtual peer than with a human peer. A study published in 2015 shows that children who author social behaviors for a virtual peer and watch the resulting interaction with real children show a transfer effect – subsequently producing more contingent discourse with their human peers.
In all cases, the hope is that this technology will push the capability of computers in the classroom above and beyond the passive digital lecture. Indeed, the creation and use of virtual peers may preserve the value of social interaction and engagement in education tech — while also teaching us about what makes us human.

Check out this amazing commissioned mural!
The owners of this house went away for the weekend - and came back to a surprise jungle in their living room.
It takes real guts to go on holidays, leave the keys to your house with a relative stranger and give them free reign to paint whatever they want in your living room.Yet, that's exactly what Melbourne couple Peter and Alexandra Ruys did when they commissioned artist Steve Cross - whose work was featured in Ronnie and Georgia's lounge and main bedroom last year - to paint a mural in their home.
What made you decide to commission an indoor mural from Steve?
And that inspired you to ask him to do something at your place?
When we did a full kitchen renovation that extended into our unused dining room, we ended up with bland, seven-metre wall running down the front half of the house. We were talking about trying to find some nice big paintings to hang along there, but we didn't know where to start - and with two young boys, there was no time to browse.
We also knew we didn't want the wall to look cluttered with picture frames - we wanted it to blend in and disappear somehow. At this time Steve was posting pictures of a three-story wall he was doing at a restaurant in Chinatown and it just clicked.
And your wife was onboard?
I discussed with my wife Alex the idea of getting the whole wall painted by Steve and we decided it was worth a shot. I messaged Steve and asked if he had ever done this style of work in a residential house - I wasn't sure if he'd be interested, or be willing, to do it. But he was keen and we eventually worked out a good time to do it. We decided to leave the house to Steve while we went on a family holiday for a week so that we would be out of his way and the paint fumes wouldn't be too strong with us in the house.
Did you have an idea of what you wanted, or did you leave it up to him?
We loved the rainforest scenery he'd done on the restaurant wall and thought something like that would be great, and suit our home. Steve made the effort to come out and have a look at the space and made sure we were all on the same page. We discussed bringing a similar colour scheme from the outside gardens into the house, but we left it up to Steve as to whether he wanted to add any wildlife to the nature theme. We were aware that we wanted something contemporary and not too "out there" - it needed to suit the space.
Were you nervous when you left him behind in your home - what if you hated what he came up with?
There was definitely some nervous excitement when we left Steve to work his magic. But we were never in doubt that we would love the result. We trusted Steve completely and wouldn't have decided to do this project with any other artist. We didn't even want progress shots sent - we wanted a total surprise when we came home.
How excited were you to return to your home and see what he'd done?
We were really excited. It made our holiday extra special and exciting knowing we would be arriving home to see the wall. It was like having a house makeover and coming home for the big reveal! Naturally, we were extremely happy with the result. By the way, besides the mural, there was no sign that Steve had even been there! No mess, and not a single drop of paint or overspray anywhere. He even went above and beyond and watered the garden for us!
Are you glad you took such a massive leap of faith?
Imagine coming home to this on your wall - AMAZING!

Q: Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors...SSIS VS2005 Business Development Studio When developing SSIS package using VS 2005, I set up the connection manager for oledb teradata provider and added a oledb source and destination. For oledb source, I used the data access mode as sql command and added sql command text. But when I tried to do column mapping, I'm getting an error message which is detailed below.
Error at All Transactions [OLEDB Source [1627]]:
An OLEDB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "OLE DB Provider for Teradata"  Hresult:
0x80040E21  Description: "Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check
each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.".

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0202009 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)

BUTTONS:
OK

Please let me know why such error throws. I have a workaround which is described as follows.
when you store the sql within ( and ) and alias the query and set the data access mode as table name or view name variable, then it works fine.

A: Without any more information on the SQL being used in the OLEDB Source component, I can try and guess. Maybe the issue is with the SQL that is returning columns with the same name or similar situation that leads to incorrect metadata.

A: I just got this error and I simply edited the provider to a different provider, tested, and then set it back to the original provider.  In my case I was using OLEDB Native client 11 so I set it to 10 and then back to 11.
My guess is the XML got corrupted somehow as my package has been working forever.


Important: I recommend to apply $phongboost on the two models without the suit. The eyes of these models are not poseable, follow these simple instructions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEvFEpYpdJo) by Commander Hot Pants to fix the problem.
Is there a rig for it or could it be made compatible with valve3 by just changing bone names in the files or is there more to it?
Use rig_biped_goor_me3.py (link in the description), it works with every GoOR model.
