Stochasticity and terminal stacking performance of import containers
The use of containers has decreased sea transportation costs and has enabled more cost effective transport. Moreover, containerisation has led to advantages in terms of handling processes at container terminals and protection of the goods inside. With an increasing amount of container terminals around the world, competition between terminals has risen. Therefore, it has become more and more important for terminal operators to conduct their work as efficient as possible.
Efficient terminal operations are hindered by stochasticity, which is defined as random and uncertain variation in a parameter value. Stochasticity can affect many aspects of terminal operations. It is for example present in arrival times of hinterland transport modes (trains, trucks and barges) and next mode of transport for import containers. Upon arrival of a container at the container yard, where containers are temporarily stored and await further transport, it is often unknown when the container will be picked up again and by which mode of transport. Stochasticity in arrival times of hinterland transport modes makes it harder for a terminal to organize the import yard in a way that the containers that will be retrieved first are on top of the stack.
Due to the lack of information on exact arrival times, requested containers are often stored underneath other containers, which will then need to be reshuffled to reach the requested container. This type of reshuffling is performed while a hinterland transport mode is waiting for the requested container, and therefore increases service times for the hinterland transport modes. Reshuffling performed during peak hours especially puts pressure on the terminal system, since the limited amount of available yard operating equipment is already scheduled for many tasks during peak hours.
The goal of this research is to quantify the relation between stochasticity and the performance of stacking operations of import containers. The main research question is:
What is the effect of stochasticity in import container information on stacking performance at a container terminal?
Indicators that represent stacking performance are based on a literature review. Based on this review the following performance indicators have been defined: the number of reshuffles, the truck service time and the maximum straddle carrier (SC) utilisation rate per hour.
The simulation model designed in this research is based on a SC operated multimodal container terminal. The simulation model is specified with data on terminal layout, retrieved volumes per hinterland transport mode over a period of 46 weeks, truck arrival distributions and average dwell time.
Different experiments have been run to test the effect of stochasticity on stacking performance. In the experiments two configurations have been specified: the implementation of housekeeping moves during non-peak hours (from 10:00 PM until 5:30 AM) and the non-housekeeping configuration. For these two configurations, results of experiments in which the level of stochasticity is varied are achieved.
The research has led to two main conclusions. The first conclusion is that stochasticity deteriorates stacking performance. The second conclusion is that implementing housekeeping moves improves the performance of stacking operations, even in scenarios with a high level of stochasticity. Implementing housekeeping moves in the scenario with low stochasticity could spare almost 640.000 reshuffles per year, almost 9.000 hours of truck service time per year and 8 minutes per SC in peak hours based on the total import volume of the terminal.
In the scenario with high level of stochasticity, implementing housekeeping moves could save more than 120.000 reshuffles per year, almost 900 hours of truck service time per year and 3 minutes per SC in peak hours. In the low stochasticity experiment 10 housekeeping SC shifts are needed each night to obtain the benefits and the total SC working hours increase with more than 60.000 hours per year for the entire import yard. In the high stochasticity experiment 8 housekeeping SC shifts are needed and the total SC working hours increase with almost 59.000 hours per year.

Central Texas Music Festival Float Fest Announces a 2020 Return
By Chris Conde on Thu, Dec 19, 2019 at 1:39 pm
After being forced to postpone due to weather-related obstacles, music festival Float Fest has announced it will return next summer.
The event will take place Saturday and Sunday, July 25-26, in the town of Gonzales and feature a genre-spanning bill. Though a lineup has not yet been announced, past headliners have included Weezer, Tame Impala, Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne and Cage The Elephant.
This year, the festival will be held on a 765-acre ranch three times the size of its previous venue. According to a press release, the new location — in addition to the fest's namesake ability to cool off by floating on a nearby river — will offer more camp sites and additional parking.
"We're so excited to be back in 2020 and have the opportunity to bring our fans more space and offerings across the board," Float Fest founder Marcus Federman said in the release.
"Over the last year, we've been working on major improvements to the property to provide the best experience, and we can't wait for attendees to enjoy all of the new amenities. Since Gonzales is known as the birthplace of Texas Independence, moving the festival here gives us the perfect opportunity to celebrate our roots as the first Texas music festival centered around floating the river and camping — true Texas traditions."
To celebrate the return, Float Fest is releasing a limited amount of "no line up needed" two-day general admission tickets for $99. They're available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The tickets are available now at floatfest.net.

No style and design answer is best. Very own," from the feeling that the design is a part of her artistic sensibilities and nobody else. If you look will be likewise most useful to demonstrate that you own a portfolio from Dribble or Behance or still another design group. After studying, you might alter current layouts to meet a increased benchmark. Again, then you may possibly like to coordinate with your design to the organization or recruiter is always watching for. Graphic design hints may appear a bit more lively. It is something that marketers are always able to gain out of learningwithout an official instruction. Resumes work as an instrument to produce a feeling and also to earn a powerful case to your application, you ought to be certain that most sections your resume will likely be of top notch quality.

Josef Matička (13. září 1893 Tejnka u Prahy – 7. července 1976 Litomyšl) byl český malíř, bibliofil a sběratel umění.

Originální výtvarný projev Josefa Matičky vzešel z jeho rané tvorby, kterou ovlivnily moderní umělecké směry (impresionismus, expresionismus, kubismus, surrealismus), od 40. let se jeho dílo začalo ubírat vlastním originálním směrem, kterým se zcela programově obracel k lidovému umění, svým dílem se Matička snažil reflektovat podstatu českého národa a složitost jeho osudů. Josefa Matičku je tak možné zařadit mezi solitéry českého výtvarného umění, mezi které patří Josef Lada či Jan Zrzavý, kteří svou tvou vybočují z dobových schémat výtvarného umění.

Život

Dětství a studia

Josef Matička se narodil v Tejnce u Prahy jako jediné dítě tiskařského sazeče Floriána Matičky (1857–1929) a jeho ženy Veroniky rozené Slavíkové (1867–1921). Na utváření jeho osobnosti tak měla velký vliv citově a nábožensky založená matka i otec, typ starého českého písmáka a vlastence, jenž synovi vštěpoval zájem o českou literaturu, historii a výtvarné umění, ale také život v chudé pražské dělnické čtvrti.
Po maturitě na malostranské reálce (dnešní Gymnázium Jana Nerudy) a pokouší se v letech 1912 a 1913 dostat na pražskou akademii výtvarných umění, ale u obou přijímacích řízení je odmítnut. Zapisuje se tedy alespoň do večerních kurzů na této škole a na podzim roku 1912 začíná studovat pozemní stavitelství na České vysoké škole technické v Praze (pozdější ČVUT) a od školního roku 1914/15 studuje obor architektura a pozemní stavitelství.
V roce 1919 se v Praze na přednáškách V. V. Štecha seznamuje s Annou Theinovou, svou budoucí manželkou. Anna se narodila 26. ledna 1897 v Litomyšli v rodině židovského obchodníka Marka Theina a jeho ženy Růženy rozené Schneidrové. Po absolvování gymnázia v Litomyšli (v roce 1917 jako první dívka v historii této školy skládá maturitní zkoušku) odjíždí studovat filozofii do Vídně a v roce 1918 se zapisuje na Filozofickou fakultu Univerzity Karlovy v Praze. V roce 1921 spolu poprvé navštěvují Litomyšl, město, které se stane inspiračním zdrojem Matičkovy malířské tvorby.

20. a 30. léta
Ve svých třiceti letech ukončuje v roce 1923 studia architektury a pozemního stavitelství a nastupuje do praxe, vleklá nemoc (tuberkulóza kostí a páteře) mu ale zabrání v dalším výkonu povolání, neboť mu lékař zakáže dlouhé stání u rýsovacího prkna. Anna Theinová dokončí doktorát z filozofie a 22. prosince 1923 se vdává se za Josefa Matičku.

Manželé Matičkovi bydlí v Praze na Letné. Josefův zdravotní stav není dobrý, rodinu existenčně zajišťuje Anna, ta se svým – jak ráda říkala – "nepraktickým doktorátem z filozofie" nemůže najít zaměstnání, po čase hledání získává práci v Ženské národní radě, feministické hnutí jí je ale cizí, proto místo brzy opouští. V roce 1927 si otevře v Praze-Dejvicích obchůdek s cukrovinkami pod názvem Bonbon. Ten dobře prosperuje, proto ho přemístí na frekventovanější místo v Praze na Letné. Zde Matičkovi ve 30. letech ukrývají uprchlíky z nacistického Německa.

Druhá světová válka
Protože Anna a Josef žijí v tzv. smíšeném árijsko-židovském manželství potýkali se s rasovým útlakem během 2. světové války, v roce 1940 přichází Anna o svůj obchod s cukrovinkami a v roce 1941 hledají útočiště Litomyšle. Zde je však v roce 1942 Anna spolu se svojí rodinou zařazena do transportu, ze které ho je vyřazena, podobné štěstí již nemá o 2 roky později, kdy je deportována do sběrného tábora Hagibor v Praze, odkud je převezena do koncentračního tábora Terezín. Také Josef je v roce 1944 zatčen a nejprve dopraven na pardubické gestapo, v prosinci je převezen na Pankrác a poté do Hagiboru. Po osvobození se manželé šťastně se setkávají v pražském bytě, Anna však zbytek své rodiny již nikdy nespatří, neboť umírají v Osvětimi. V roce 1945 vstupují oba manželé do KSČ, neboť se proklamovaný program strany shoduje s jejich přesvědčením o potrestání válečných zločinců a kolaborantů.

Poválečná doba
Josef Matička se po druhé světové válce začne naplno věnovat své lásce – malování, zdravotní stav mu neumožňuje nastoupit do pracovního procesu, proto pobírá invalidní důchod.

Anna pracuje v Litomyšli jako dopisovatelka Rudé záře, píše především o průběhu lidových soudů s místními kolaboranty, je jí nabídnuto studium na novinářské škole KSČ v Praze a posléze práce redaktorky tiskového oddělení ÚV KSČ, v roce 1952 je však Anna kvůli svému židovskému a buržoaznímu původu propuštěna z místa redaktorky a nastupuje do antikvariátu u Karlova mostu, kde působí v rukopisném oddělení až do svého penzionování v roce 1962.

60. a 70. léta
V roce 1962 si Matičkovi kupují kamenickou chalupu v Budislavi u Litomyšle, kde si Josef zřizuje ateliér, často také chodí malovat do plenéru. Sbírá místní lidové umění – výrobky ze zaniklé sklárny na Posekanci, lidové plastiky ze dřeva, hospodářské nářadí, staré židle i malované truhly.

7. července 1976 Josef Matička umírá v Litomyšli, Anna Matičková umírá 1. srpna 1985. Manželé Matičkovi jsou pochováni na litomyšlském hřbitově, autorem sochy Múzy stojící na jejich hrobě je sochař Olbram Zoubek.

Tvorba

Nejranější tvorba
Josef Matička začínal jako malíř vlastně dvakrát. Nejprve se pokoušel dostat na pražskou akademii v letech 1912, 1913, jeho neúspěch však měl za následek, že většinu svých dosavadních výtvorů zničil, proto známe z jeho nejranější tvorby jen několik málo obrazů. Zásadní vliv měla na Matičku posmrtná výstava A. Slavíčka, která se konala v pavilonu Mánesa v roce 1910. Zde Matička plně přilnul k tvorbě tohoto velikána české moderní krajinomalby, což se také odráží v jeho výtvarné práci, např. v obraze U Štrobachovic pole (1914). Výrazný vliv na Matičkovu tvorbu měla také generace výtvarníků kolem skupiny Osma a moderní umělecké směry.

30. léta
Podruhé se k malířství vrací po svých studiích, snaha zůstat u výtvarného umění ho přivedla ke studiu pozemního stavitelství a architektury, vleklá nemoc mu však zabránila vykonávat povolání architekta, proto na počátku 30. let se instinktivně vrátil k malířství. Během 30. let Matička střídá výtvarný projev stejně jako náměty obrazů. V jeho tvorbě můžeme nalézt zpětnou recepci expresionismu, Krajina (1930), surrealistických vlivů, Před operací (1935), i kubismu, Kristus pod křížem klesá (1936). Vedle krajin se věnoval zátiší i figurálním námětům.
V roce 1925 se seznamuje s litomyšlským malířem Josefem Voleským, který ho uvede do Sdružení výtvarníků v Praze, se kterým Matička v roce 1932 jako host poprvé vystavuje a v roce 1940 mu je ve výstavních prostorách sdružení, v domě U Medvídků v Praze, uspořádaná první samostatná výstava.

40. léta
Události 2. světové války zásadním způsobem ovlivní tvorbu Josefa Matičky. V roce 1941 odcházejí manželé Matičkovi do Litomyšle, kde hledají ochranu před německým útlakem, právě v Litomyšli nalezl Josef svůj výtvarný projev. Podstatou změnou Matičkovy tvorby bylo zjednodušení výtvarného projevu, Zátiší s chlebem a solí (1941). Proměnu Matičkovi usnadnily některé tvůrčí principy, se kterými již dříve pracoval a jejichž některé prvky nyní naplno využil. Kubizující formy architektury, střídání kontrastů světlých a tmavých tonů, kterými definuje tvary, ukazují na svébytné využití vlivu kubismu pro svou novou tvorbu. Dramatická, expresivní barevnost sice Matičkovi zůstala, především jako rys válečné doby, ale jeho rukopis se zklidnil. Obrazy již nejsou malovány prudkým, až nahodilým štětcem. Matička každý tah pečlivě připravuje a promýšlí. Mezi výrazná díla z tohoto období patří např. Litomyšl od Kacimberku I, II (1942), nebo Lubná (1943). K válečným událostem se však Matička vracel i v pozdějších letech, např. Hrozná zpráva (1962),Černopláštník I, (1963).

Poválečná tvorba
I po skončení druhé světové války pokračuje Matička v usilovné malířské práci. Věnuje se tématům Litomyšle a jejímu okolí, řada obrazů má sice výtvarně lyrický charakter, jsou to ale Matičkovy vzpomínky na doby dávno minulé, Ševci (1947), Ledaři na Hlubokém (1947). Obrazy z druhé poloviny 40. a z let 50. představují vrchol litomyšlské tvorby J. Matičky. Zásadní roli pro něj hraje silueta města, zámku, kostelních věží a náměstí, Horní náměstí v Litomyšli (1946), Na trhu (1952). Vedle Litomyšle se v námětech obrazů objevuje i Praha, v roce 1951 si Matička přivodí těžký úraz kolene, což mu znemožní vzdalovat se od bytu v Dlouhé ulici, pracuje v uličkách Haštalské čtvrti, kde zachycuje intimní městská zákoutí, Klášterní ulička I (1955).

60. a 70. léta

Josef Matička začíná výtvarně zpracovávat svoje vzpomínky, cyklus U nás doma představuje vlastně malířovy memoáry, První návštěva muzea (1971), Buďte zdráv, pane Zrzavý! (1969), některé obrazy vznikají podle dobových fotografií, např. Starý vojenský hřbitov (1936, 1966, 1967).
Třetím místem, které je s J. Matičkou neodmyslitelně spjato, je Budislav, kde si Matičkovi v roce 1962 pořídili chalupu. V Budislavi kolem sebe shromažďoval prvky lidového umění a stále více ctil tradici lidového umění a sám sebe stále více pokládal za pokračovatele této tradice. Právě lidovost, srozumitelnost i skrytá krása lidového umění korespondovaly s výtvarným názorem, který se začal v malíři formovat od 40. let. Obrazy s budislavskou tematikou jsou poetickými, hravými výpověďmi o harmonii s přírodou i životem, Kocour a kapr (1966), Náš kocour (1963,1964).

Pozornost tvorbě Josefa Matičky věnoval nepravidelně i celostátní tisk, který uveřejňoval reprodukce jeho děl.

Bibliofilie a ilustrace
Během první světové války se Matička věnuje bibliofilským tiskům. Edici Bibliofil vydávají J. Matička, K. Dvořák a K. Latzel, ediční řada se zaměřuje na českou národní literaturu: v roce 1916 vycházejí Básně K. H. Máchy, roku 1918 Matička graficky upravuje Máchovy Písně a znělky, v témže roce vydává knihu vlasteneckých statí s textem Čeští spisovatelé českému poselstvu v grafické úpravě a s dřevoryty J. Bendy, dále pak Rukopisy Králodvorský a Zelenohorský (1919), Lužické prostonárodní písně apod. Mimo edici vydává například Probuzení Budhovo (1919) nebo Kytičku na hrob Jana Štursy (1930).
V roce 1949 vychází kniha Lucie Sovové Na podsíni, inspirovaná životem na litomyšlském náměstí. Matička ji ilustruje, typograficky upravuje a prvních 100 výtisků také ručně koloruje. Spolupráce Sovové a Matičky dále pokračuje – vytváří ilustrace k její knize Dětský rok, pro niž ale nenacházejí nakladatele.

Sběratel
Josef Matička vlastnil celou řadu obrazů českých umělců 1. poloviny 20. století, především obrazy generace malířů Osmy, např. Emila Filly, Josefa Čapka, Bohumila Kubišty, Jana Zrzavého a Václava Špály. V roce 1977 věnovala na přání svého manžela Anna Matičková kolekci obrazů svého muže i obrazů z jeho sbírky městu Litomyšli, po smrti Anny byl odkaz rozšířen o další obrazy, celá kolekce se dnes nachází v Městské galerii Litomyšl.

HEROIN HIGHWAY TO HELL: Jason P. Baker Sentenced to 15-Years in Prison for Dealing Fentanyl-Fatal Overdose to Josiah Klaes; Wanted Heroin
By City DeskPosted on February 21, 2020 February 21, 2020 0
ANNAPOLIS, MD – A teenager who believed he was buying heroin for a cheap high was instead sold Fentanyl, one of the chief exports of Communist China – which caused him to die of an overdose. Now the drug dealer who provided the dangerous opioid is headed to prison.
THE CHESAPEAKE TODAY – ALL CRIME ALL THE TIME – Copyright 2019
Anne Arundel Circuit Court Judge Donna Schaeffer sentenced Jason Patton Baker, 46, of Millersville to 15 years in prison in the death of 16-year-old Josiah Klaes announced Anne Arundel County State's Attorney Anne Colt Leitess. The teenager died from the lethal drugs Baker knowingly sold to the minor. Baker was found guilty by a jury of one count of involuntary manslaughter, distribution of fentanyl, reckless endangerment and other lesser included charges on December 11, 2019.
"Tragically, the opioid epidemic has stolen the life of another young person from our community. Baker, an adult, willfully sold illegal substances to a minor which led to his death and because of that, Baker will be in prison and unable to sell deadly drugs to people and hurt other families," said Anne Arundel County State's Attorney Anne Colt Leitess. "I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the family of the victim as they continue to heal and it's my hope that this sentence brings some peace to their family."
THE CHESAPEAKE TODAY All Crime All The Time
Assistant State's Attorney Jason Steinhardt prosecuted the case on behalf of the citizens of Anne Arundel County.
On January 19, 2018, Anne Arundel County police officers responded to 8209 Kramer Court in Glen Burnie to find the victim, later identified as Josiah Klaes, in cardiac arrest. He was unresponsive upon their arrival and pronounced deceased on the scene.
A friend of the victim advised police he witnessed several drug transactions of heroin and marijuana between Baker and Josiah.
During the investigation, Anne Arundel County detectives spoke with the victim's brother who said Josiah had recently purchased marijuana from a white male by the name of 'Baker' and later identified as Jason Patton Baker. A friend of the victim advised police he witnessed several drug transactions of heroin and marijuana between Baker and Josiah.
An analysis of the victim's cellphone found numerous text messages between the victim and defendant which detailed drug transactions. During one of the text message exchanges, Baker asked Josiah his age, and the victim replied with his weight and height and told him that he was 16 years old.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner determined that Josiah died as a direct result of fentanyl intoxication.
On February 3, 2018, Baker was arrested for possession of a controlled dangerous substance. A search warrant was obtained and executed for Baker's phone. The device phone number matched the contact in Klaes' phone. Additionally, further investigation found that Baker sold Josiah fentanyl instead of heroin, which led to the fatal overdose.
I just want to thank everyone for their support these last few weeks. From this gofundme page and other donations outside of this platform, we raised just enough money to cover his funeral expenses. It is now time to rest and let reality sink in. Please continue to pray for our family.

Procrastinating feels lazy. You know you shouldn't, but you do it anyway because work is hard. Planning, brainstorming, and discussing feels productive because you're talking about doing stuff. If you don't move to action, though, there's no difference between the two.
You don't need to do some complex retirement income calculation to take intelligent action today. Get your employer match, if you're so lucky to have one, and save in a Roth IRA. Action! You'll have a larger nest egg at the end of your career than someone who spent hours pouring over Money Magazine articles and watching CNBC while doing nothing.
None of this is to say that planning is inherently bad. Researching your options, talking about ideas with your partners, and writing stuff down are all great ways to move forward. But "moving forward" on a project that doesn't go anywhere is no more productive than watching Netflix.

Man dies after veering to avoid hitting kangaroo
by Dominica Sanda
21st Aug 2018 7:48 PM
A MAN has died after swerving and rolling his car into a paddock while trying to avoid hitting a kangaroo in far northern NSW.
The 39-year-old's body was found near Bingara on Monday night after his partner contacted a friend when he failed to return home as expected. The friend retraced the route the man would have driven and found his ute which appeared to have rolled in a paddock, NSW Police said on Tuesday. The man's body and a dead kangaroo were found nearby.
He is the fifth person to die on NSW roads in 24 hours.
A 19-year-old male cyclist was killed after colliding with an SUV in St Mary's in western Sydney on Monday night.
Hours earlier, a 39-year-old male motorcyclist was killed in a crash with a van in far north NSW.
The motorbike rider was thrown from his bike in the collision, suffering critical injuries. He died at the scene.
In Windsor, northwest of Sydney, an elderly woman pedestrian died about 5pm on Monday after she was hit by a garbage truck.
Meanwhile, a 64-year-old male cyclist has died in hospital four days after he was found unconscious on the side of a road in Parramatta.
Police believe the man was cycling in Parramatta Park before the incident on Thursday.

Q: About mod 2 Index of Dirac Operators in 3D on Non-Orientable Manifold I was reading Witten's paper "Fermion Path Integrals and Topological Phases" (https://arxiv.org/abs/1508.04715). He claimed that

Indeed, on
  an orientable 3-manifold, the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator always have even multiplicity,
  as we showed earlier using the antilinear operation dened in eqn. (2.60). However, on an
  unorientable 3-manifold, the mod 2 index can be nontrivial. A simple example is $X =
\text{KB} \times  S^1$, where $KB$ and the spin structure on it were defined in eqns. (3.7), (3.8), and we
  take the periodic spin structure on $S^1$. The only zero-mode of it is a mode that is constant in
  the $S^1$ direction and whose restriction to $KB$ is the zero-mode found in the last paragraph.
  So the mod 2 index is 1.

I sort of understand this example. But it surprises me since it is well known that mod 2 index is defined in the corresponding $K$ group while $KR^{-3}(pt)\cong KO^{-3}(pt) \cong 0$ unless the proof or result I read only apply to orientable manifolds. I want to know how to make sense of this result mathematically and in particular, how to understand the mod 2 index on nonorientable manifolds.
PS: (3.7) is the definition of Klein Bottle $KB$ which is the real plane $(x_1, x_2)$ mod out the following
$$(x_1, x_2)\cong (x_1+1, x_2)\cong (x_1, x_2+1)\cong (x_1+\frac{1}{2}, x_2)$$
and (3.8) is the definition of the spin structure
$$\psi(x_1, x_2)=\psi(x_1+1, x_2)=\psi(x_1, x_2+1)=\gamma_2\psi(x_1+\frac{1}{2}, -x_2)$$

Manhasset boys volleyball wins first-ever division title
Ben Punzalan - BVM Sports User Submission
MANHASSET, N.Y. — In its brief, four-year history, the Manhasset High School Boys' Volleyball team had not been good. I had been on the team for the past three years—I should know.
While other sports had decorated banners in the gym celebrating decades of success, our banner was one of only two that was completely empty. With three coaches in four years, and one of our best players graduating the previous year, the coming 2022-2023 season did not hold much promise.
However, the school took a chance on hiring young Jason Maser, the 22-year-old coach for the B&B Club Volleyball team. He was already familiar with the MHS team captains: Christian Wong (middle), Anderson Lu (libero), and me, Ben Punzalan (setter), and he came with high expectations for the group. Coach Jason brought a unique knowledge of the game that our old coaches hadn't, and he began to establish a culture of hard work and communication that would stay with us throughout the season. Between watching film, running new drills, and learning new defensive schemes, we were more prepared than ever.
Once the season started, it was clear that this was a completely new team. We were more fluid, we played together, and we hustled every point. Through the team's excellent play, led by the connection between Christian Wong and myself, as well as through the team's presence on Instagram (@setboysvolleyball), word got out about the Manhasset Boys Volleyball team. Alongside the star players, team personalities like sophomore Teddy Chan and freshman Isaias "Drake" Mejia, captivated fans within the school. The Manhasset Broadcast Company, which runs the high school's weekly news show, began covering the team, creating engaging and hilarious segments that captivated the school community. For the first time in years, people were excited to cheer us on. Previously empty stands were now filled with fans, students and parents alike, who held up signs and screamed in support of their squad.
As the wins kept coming, we soon realized that, against all odds, we had a chance to claim the Division Title and make the playoffs for our first time ever. Eventually, boasting a 13-1 record, we had to face-off against the undefeated team from Elmont, which had eliminated us from playoff contention the previous year. The four-set duel brought out the best in both teams, and clutch performances from Andrew Mei (outside hitter), Alex Zarboulas (right-side hitter), and Austyn Park (defensive specialist) propelled our team to the victory. In one of the highlights of my own high-school experience, we were able to silence the booming Elmont home crowd, and bring home our first-ever Division Title.
Motivated by our big win, we finished the season 16-1, and were eagerly awaiting the playoffs. Although we were the underdog as the 12-seed against the fifth-seed Bellmore-JFK, we were confident in ourselves and felt that we had rightfully earned our spot. Unfortunately, we had never played a team of their caliber, and they had been used to facing the best teams on the island all year. In a heartbreaking 3-1 loss, our season was ended, though it was not without its great moments.
With six of the seven starters for the team graduating this year, the future of the team remains uncertain, except for one thing: the banner. In four years, everyone on the current team will be out of high school, but that banner will still say "23"—forever a reminder of one of the most unique and exciting athletic seasons in Manhasset history.

The employment equity (EE) Amendment Bill &Regulations is proposing the establishment of sectoral targets to enable employers to transform workplaces.
Deputy Director of Department of Labour Employment Equity (EE) Directorate, Masilo Lefika said the EE amendments & Regulations have proposed the establishment of 18 sectors as per the classification published by Statistics South Africa.
Lefika said a notice on the proposed sector targets will soon be published in the Government Gazette for public comment. He said while the sector targets would be in place, the use of the national economic active population (EAP) as an instrument to gauge will also remain in place.
He was speaking today (October 9) during the national public hearings on the amendments to EE Act and the EE Regulations held at the Golden Horse Casino Hotel in Pietermaritzburg. Lefika further said that the sector targets would also be extended to occupational levels.
The Department of Labour has published the Employment Equity Amendment Bill and the Draft Employment Equity Regulations in the Government Gazette in response to the slow pace of transformation in the workplaces. The Department is using the public hearings to gather comments to the EE amendments.
Held under the theme: "Real transformation makes business sense" – the public hearings focus on EE reporting advocacy and the amendments to EE legislation and Regulations, designed to fast-track the transformation of workplaces.
Introduction of provisions and regulatory requirements for the promulgation of Section 53 to ensure employers financially benefiting from State contracts comply with the EE Act.
Lefika said: "Section 53 has for a long time been a sleeping tiger and now it has awakened".
Another session on EE amendments & Regulations will be held tomorrow (October 10) at the Olive Convention Centre in Durban.
The public hearings on Employment Equity amendments & Regulations started on 02 October in East London. Since then public hearings have been held in east London, Port Elizabeth and Cape Town.
The EE public hearings are be held from 08:30 to 14:00. The public hearings end on 26 October 2018 in Johannesburg, Gauteng Province.


When YOU become the "Parent". Life's changing seasons..
It's an interesting, and sometimes wrenching, transition.
Anyone with an interest in reading this blog is old enough to know that one of the surest things in life is change. When I was 16 years old I was quite sure high school would never end. It did. In my early 20s I started to wonder if I would ever find the husband I was looking for and have the family I desperately wanted. Found him. Married him 32 years ago. We have two daughters and six grandchildren.
I grew up with great parents in a secure and loving home. We were not "well off" but we had what we needed. My parents worked hard to provide for us. When I was a little girl riding my bike and playing in the dirt, I never considered that life would ever be any different.
I could always count on my Mom and Dad to be there for me. They were there to be strong and nurturing, loving and supportive. My rocks….always.
In 1995 my father passed away from kidney cancer. He was only 66 years old. This was the beginning of change in our lives.
Mom did quite well for several years. Some of the grandchildren lived with her off and on so she wasn't alone a lot. Eventually though, the kids moved on and she began getting depressed. She wouldn't get out and about much and I was worried about her being alone. My husband and I convinced her to move in with us.
She lived with us for ten years. During that time we saw her go through many changes. The first few years she did a lot of cooking, her own laundry, and pretty much whatever she wanted to do. She drove her own car to town when she wanted to go. It was an enjoyable time that I miss very much.
A few years later she started forgetting to turn the heat down when she was cooking. Or would walk away and forget she had something on the stove. We were afraid of her catching the kitchen on fire. So she had to be restricted to using the microwave only. Imagine restricting your own mother from anything! Not fun at all.
As time went on she became less stable on her feet. She progressed from a cane to a walker to a power chair. She could no longer get up by herself to go to the restroom. She would call me from her cell phone and wake me at all hours to help her up. Sometimes she didn't remember why she called. Many times she fell when she did try to get up by herself.
The tide was turning quickly. I was now the caregiver, the safety police and become the parent to my parent! It seems this is the natural cycle of life. But when you are in the middle of these changes it feels anything but natural.
Almost daily as I speak with customers here at SpinLife I hear the same kind of stories. There are many daughters and sons finding themselves in a new and scary place. What is best for Mom or Dad? Is she going to be mad at me if I get her this walker? What will he think if I tell him he shouldn't do that? Can we take care of them at home? Do we need help? And who can I go to for advice?
When I was a child, there was more than one time that my Mom or Dad grabbed me by the shoulder to stop me from walking out into the road without looking. They gave me cool baths when I ran a high fever. They made me study and learn how to take care of myself. Not fun at the time but necessary and valuable lessons. They did what they had to do to keep me safe, healthy and feeling loved.
That is what we all have to do as the cycle of life continues, and we become the "parent." Do what you must even when it is difficult. Only you can decide what that "must" is and it won't be easy. You may cry some tears when she doesn't know your name. Leaving her in a facility because you can no longer keep her safe yourself rips your heart out. Sometimes love is hard.
My husband and I live two houses away from our oldest daughter and her family. We walked down there for dinner last week. When it was time for us to go home, she and her husband walked us home! Like we couldn't find our way home two doors down! We aren't even 60 yet! They walked up our sloped driveway with us to make sure we were on flat ground in the garage. My CHILD was making sure we were safe. It has begun. And I feel loved.


CONGRATULATIONS MR & MRS GREVESON!
Many congratulations to Tom and Claire on their wedding yesterday.
We had a fabulous time both at the Registry Office and the evening blessing celebrations.
A beautiful day for a lovely couple.

The Haldeman Mansion Preservation Society (HMPS) is a nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization. Its mission is to restore and preserve the existing buildings and grounds of the Haldeman Mansion property to be used to promote history, education and community use.
Statement of Restoration Policy for the HMPS, Conoy Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
The Haldeman Mansion, birthplace of Professor Samuel Steman Haldeman was completed in 1811 by his grandparents, John and Maria Brenneman Haldeman. The style of architecture is vernacular German combined with Federal elements.
The Mansion was placed on the Pennsylvania and National Registers of Historic Places on August 3, 1977. It is #6 on the inventory of historic buildings of the Historic Preservation Trust of Lancaster County.
It is the first historic structure in the Bainbridge-Conoy Township areas to be preserved for public access and serves as a museum house, a community landmark and a meeting place.
GENERAL AIMS
The Board of Directors of the Haldeman Mansion Preservation Society recognizes that the primary aim of restoration and preservation in the significance of it as the birthplace of Professor Haldeman and for its architecture. Its location at a site of archeological importance in the study of Native Americans in Pennsylvania is equally important.
Restoration should be directed to the following ends:
1. To preserve the building's architectural integrity and its significance in the area.
2. To demonstrate and emphasize what influence was exerted on Professor Haldeman by his early associations with the house, its surroundings, and occupants.
3. To relate the archeological importance of the area and Professor Haldeman's interest in this and other academic fields. The aim is, therefore, to restore the house and grounds to best provide material evidence of it association with the life of Professor Haldeman and its representation of architectural importance to Lancaster County.
4. Earlier habitation of the site by Native Americans should also be preserved and/or displayed for posterity.

Q: MongoDB return specific value in top of list My sorting should be by Country such that - "India" is always on the top, rest alphabetically sorted.
How can I achieve that with a mongo-shell command?
{
        "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c525"),
        "Country" : "World",
        "Population" : "7550262101"
}
{
        "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c526"),
        "Country" : "China",
        "Population" : 1409517397
}
{
        "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c527"),
        "Country" : "India",
        "Population" : 1339180127
}
{
        "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c528"),
        "Country" : "USA",
        "Population" : 324459463
}
{
        "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c529"),
        "Country" : "Indonesia",
        "Population" : 263991379
}

A: After referring to another post on Dynamic Sticky Sorting in Mongo for a simple value or list I figured out a way to achieve the desired result is
db.population.aggregate(
[
  {$project: {
    Country: 1,
    Population: 1,
    sticky: {$cond: [{$eq: ['$Country', 'India']}, 1, 0]}
  }},
  {$sort:
    {sticky: -1,
    Country: 1}
  },
  {$project: {
    Country: 1,
    Population: 1,
  }}
])

The result of the above query is
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c527"), "Country" : "India", "Population" : 1339180127 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c525"), "Country" : "World", "Population" : "7550262101" }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c526"), "Country" : "China", "Population" : 1409517397 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c528"), "Country" : "USA", "Population" : 324459463 }
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5a797000287389c34c70c529"), "Country" : "Indonesia", "Population" : 263991379 }

Easy to make and overall a cool little display piece.
When i got the item i was super excited to make the model, but the cutouts don't last when shipped because they roll them up so tightly that all the folds tear and all the pieces warp and that makes it somewhat unbuildable.
I wish it had some sort of instructions oh and you'll need glue for sure.

Q: My JSON file has %20, %3A characters and when I fetch data in React.js it shows the % characters instead of decoding I am using React.js and have a questions.JSON file in which I store the data. Now the data in the JSON file is encoded with % characters but when I fetch the data from the file, it shows up with the % characters.
Here's the JSON file example:
  {
    "category": "Entertainment%3A%20Video%20Games",
    "type": "multiple",
    "difficulty": "hard",
    "question": "What%20was%20the%20name%20of%20the%20hero%20in%20the%2080s%20animated%20video%20game%20%27Dragon%27s%20Lair%27%3F",
    "correct_answer": "Dirk%20the%20Daring",
    "incorrect_answers": [
    "Arthur",
    "Sir%20Toby%20Belch",
    "Guy%20of%20Gisbourne"
    ]
  },

Here's the React code:
  const getData = () => {
    fetch('questions.json', {
    headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    Accept: 'application/json',
  },
  })
    .then(function (response) {
    return response.json()
    })
    .then(function (myJson) {
    setQuestions(myJson)
    })
  }
  useEffect(() => {
    getData()
  }, [])

  if (undefined !== questions && questions.length) {
  return (

Question Number

{questions[0].category}

Difficulty: {questions[0].difficulty}

{questions[0].question}

      <button className='buttons'>{questions[0].correct_answer}</button>
      <button className='buttons'>
          {questions[0].incorrect_answers[0]}
        </button>
        <button className='buttons'>
          {questions[0].incorrect_answers[1]}
        </button>
        <button className='buttons'>
          {questions[0].incorrect_answers[2]}
        </button>

  )
} else {
  return
Loading Question

}

I'm quite new to React.js so if I am missing something obvious, please be patient with me.

A: As darklightcodes comment said, you can use decodeURIComponent. Here's a simple implementation for that, note that it relies on the objects having the structure in your example:
const decode = (obj) => {
  const res = {};
  for (const [key, value] in obj) {
    if (typeof value === 'string') {
      // Decode strings directly
      res[key] = decodeURIComponent(value);
    } else {
      // For arrays, decode each string containes
      res[key] = value.map(str => decodeURIComponent(str));
    }
  }
}

const getData = () => {
    fetch('questions.json', {
    headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    Accept: 'application/json',
  },
  })
    .then(function (response) {
    return response.json()
    })
    .then(function (myJson) {
      // Decode the questions
      setQuestions(myJson.map(question => decode(question)))
    })
  }
  useEffect(() => {
    getData()
  }, [])

К окончанию сезона 2021/22 зафиксировано 291 случай преодоления игроками отметки в 100 очков за один регулярный сезон. Этого результата добились 117 хоккеистов, представляющих 30 разных команд.

В марте 1969 года Фил Эспозито стал первым игроком в НХЛ, кому удалось набрать 100 очков за один регулярный сезон, а завершил сезон Эспозито со 126 баллами за результативность. В том же году ещё два игрока набрали больше ста очков: Бобби Халл – 107 очков и Горди Хоу – 103 очка.

Baby girl made it through the night with some sleep. Actually, with a lot of feedings -- and, now that it's daylight, ample naptime. Our dear friend Becky from Virginia drove in last night from the Hampton Roads, and is showing off her new Nikon D90 SLR digital camera with the shot above (one of the first ever with the new cam).
BTW, what's the URL to her blog?

Eribau de Cardona o d'Urgell, anomenat El Sant (Cardona, Bages,  — Pomposa, Emília, Itàlia, 1042) fou un vescomte d'Osona, fill del vescomte d'Osona; Ramon I i bisbe d'Urgell (1035-1042). Fou venerat com a sant tot i no haver estat canonitzat oficialment.

Fill de Ramon de Cardona i d'Engúncia. Quan morí el vescomte d'Osona Bermon I en 1029, sense fills, el succeïren els seus germans Folc I de Cardona i Eribau, que governaren conjuntament fins al 1040, quan morí Folc.

Fou elegit bisbe d'Urgell el 1035, a la mort de Sant Ermengol d'Urgell. Consagrà un gran nombre d'esglésies, entre les quals la Catedral de la Seu d'Urgell, la col·legiata de Sant Vicenç de Cardona (1036) i Sant Serni de Tavèrnoles (1040), i assistí a la consagració de la catedral de Girona (1039). Mantingué bones relacions amb el bisbe Oliba de Vic. El 1040, el rei Ramir I d'Aragó reconegué els drets d'Eribau sobre el bisbat de Ribagorça, del qual se n'havia separat anys abans.

Morí durant un pelegrinatge cap a Terra Santa, probablement a Pomposa (Emília, Itàlia) entre 1040 i 1042. Fou venerat com a sant a la Seu d'Urgell.

Home » General Interest » What Are The Differences Between British & American English?
There is an old saying that America and Britain are "two nations divided by a common language." No one exactly knows who said this, but it does seem to reflect how we Brits feel about American English.
But are American and British English really so divergent, and if so what are the key differences ?
The most obvious difference are accents. Whilst Britain has a vast range of different regional accents none are quite like any in the US. Likewise within the US there are some very different accents for instance consider the Texan and a New Yorker modes of speech.
The one big factor in the divergence of the British & American accents is "rhotacism". The General American accent is rhotic and speakers pronounce the r in words such as hard. The BBC-type British accent is non-rhotic, and speakers don't pronounce the r, leaving 'hard' sounding more like hahd.
It's interesting to note that before and during the American Revolution, the English, both in England and in the colonies, mostly spoke with a rhotic accent.
Another noticeable difference between American and British English is vocabulary. There are hundreds of everyday words that are different. For example, Brits call the front of a car the bonnet, while Americans call it the hood.
Fortunately, most Americans and Brits can usually guess the meaning through the context of a sentence.
The differences below are only a general rule. It's fair to say that American speech has influenced Britain via pop culture, and vice versa. Therefore, some prepositional differences are not as pronounced as they once were.
There are more difference but I think we've covered the most pertinent. However it's worth pointing out that British and American English have far more similarities than differences. We think the difference between American and British English is often exaggerated. If you can understand one style, you should be able to understand the other style.


Destiny's Child singer and Broadway star, Michelle Williams, recently revealed she sought help for a mental issue she has struggled with for years. The 37-year-old star revealed the news on her Instagram, explaining that while she had spent years raising awareness for mental health, she herself had come to the realisation that she too needed to attend to her own.
"I recently listened to the same advice I have given to thousands around the world and sought help from a great team of professionals," said Williams on her Instagram post.
Celebrity gossip site TMZ revealed the actress had been checked into a mental health institution "for several days" and claimed that it was linked to depression, which she discussed during an interview on American talk show The Talk.
In the interview, Williams revealed that she had struggled with depression prior to joining Destiny's Child and only acknowledged it in her 30s.
Williams' depression came as a surprise to many and they shared support for the star, including former band member, LaTavia Robertson.
@RealMichelleW today you showed the world why your a class act! Depression is real especially in our community. This is why I believe in live out loud and in color. Keep shining Love ya sis 💋💋💋 your not in this alone!!!!!
However, a number of Twitter users questioned the role played by the public at large who may have triggered Williams' depression during and after her days as a member of Destiny's Child.
y'all love making fun of Michelle Williams, yet she's CONSTANTLY opened up about dealing with depression.
The actor and former WWE wrestler told Express that after witnessing his mother's attempted suicide at 15 he struggled with depression. Ata Johnson walked into moving traffic and it was Dwayne who had to pull her out of the road. The actor has since opened up about his struggle and support for mental health awareness.
Since his mainstream debut with hit song Day and Night, the rapper has been open about his depression. In 2016, The Independent revealed that Cudi had checked himself in for professional help following suicide attempts.
The Grammy award winning singer recently told People Magazine that she was struggling with Bipolar II disorder. She also revealed in the interview that she recently sought help after years of denial.
Huffington Post revealed that the Beautiful People singer was diagnosed with Bipolar and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in 2016 following a violent altercation where he threw a rock through the window of his mother's car. His PTSD has been linked to domestic abuse by his father, which the singer revealed in a Giant Magazine interview in 2007.
Athlete and spokesperson for the Prostate Cancer Foundation, Thulani Sibisi, shares his journey with prostate cancer.
At just 20-years-of-age Inno Matijane has turned his passions for entertainment and business into a reality.

Q: Performance of C++/CLI function pointers versus .NET delegates For my C++/CLI project I just tried to measure the cost of C++/CLI function pointers versus .NET delegates.
My expectation was, that C++/CLI function pointers are faster than .NET delegates.
So my test separately counts the number of invocations of the .NET delegate and native function pointer throughout 5 seconds.
Results
Now the results were (and still are) shocking to me:

*

*.NET delegate:       910M executions with result 152080413333030 in 5003ms

*Function pointer:    347M executions with result 57893422166551 in 5013ms

That means, the native C++/CLI function pointer usage is almost 3x slower than using a managed delegate from within C++/CLI code. How can that be? I should use managed constructs  when it comes to using interfaces, delegates or abstract classes in performance-critical sections?
The test code
The function which gets called continuously:
__int64 DoIt(int n, __int64 sum)
{
    if ((n % 3) == 0)
        return sum + n;
    else
        return sum + 1;
}

The code, which invokes the method, tries to make use of all the parameters as well as the return value, so nothing gets optimized away (hopefully). Here's the code (for .NET delegates):
__int64 executions;
__int64 result;
System::Diagnostics::Stopwatch^ w = gcnew System::Diagnostics::Stopwatch();

System::Func<int, __int64, __int64>^ managedPtr = gcnew System::Func<int, __int64, __int64>(&DoIt);
w->Restart();
executions = 0;
result = 0;
while (w->ElapsedMilliseconds < 5000)
{
    for (int i=0; i < 1000000; i++)
        result += managedPtr(i, executions);
    executions++;
}
System::Console::WriteLine(".NET delegate:       {0}M executions with result {2} in {1}ms", executions, w->ElapsedMilliseconds, result);

Similar to the .NET delegate invocation, the C++ function pointer is used:
typedef __int64 (* DoItMethod)(int n, __int64 sum);

DoItMethod nativePtr = DoIt;
w->Restart();
executions = 0;
result = 0;
while (w->ElapsedMilliseconds < 5000)
{
    for (int i=0; i < 1000000; i++)
        result += nativePtr(i, executions);
    executions++;
}
System::Console::WriteLine("Function pointer:    {0}M executions with result {2} in {1}ms", executions, w->ElapsedMilliseconds, result);

Additional infos

*

*Compiled with Visual Studio 2012

*.NET Framework 4.5 was targeted

*Release build (execution counts stay proportional for Debug builds)

*Calling convention is __stdcall (__fastcall not allowed when the project gets compiled with CLR support)

All tests done:

*

*.NET virtual method: 1025M executions with result 171358304166325 in 5004ms

*.NET delegate:       910M executions with result 152080413333030 in 5003ms

*Virtual method:      336M executions with result 56056335999888 in 5006ms

*Function pointer:    347M executions with result 57893422166551 in 5013ms

*Function call:       1459M executions with result 244230520832847 in 5001ms

*Inlined function:    1385M executions with result 231791984166205 in 5000ms

The direct call to "DoIt" is represented here by "Function call", which seems to get inlined by the compiler, as there is no (significant) difference in execution counts compared to a call to the inlined function.
Calls to C++ virtual methods are as 'slow' as the function pointer. A virtual method of a managed class (ref class) is as fast as the .NET delegate.
Update:
I digged a little deeper, and it seems that for the tests with unmanaged functions, the transition to native code happens each time the DoIt function gets called.
Therefore I wrapped the inner loop into another function which I forced to compile unmanaged:
#pragma managed(push, off)
__int64 TestCall(__int64* executions)
{
    __int64 result = 0;
    for (int i=0; i < 1000000; i++)
            result += DoItNative(i, *executions);
    (*executions)++;
    return result;
}
#pragma managed(pop)

Additionally I tested std::function like that:
#pragma managed(push, off)
__int64 TestStdFunc(__int64* executions)
{
    __int64 result = 0;
    std::function<__int64(int, __int64)> func(DoItNative);
    for (int i=0; i < 1000000; i++)
        result += func(i, *executions);
    (*executions)++;
    return result;
}
#pragma managed(pop)

Now, the new results are:

*

*Function call:       2946M executions with result 495340439997054 in 5000ms

*std::function:       160M executions with result 26679519999840 in 5018ms

std::function is a bit disappointing.

A: You are seeing the cost of "double thunking".  The core problem with your DoIt() function is that it is being compiled as managed code.  The delegate call is very fast, it is uncomplicated to go from managed to managed code through a delegate.  The function pointer is slow however, the compiler automatically generates code to first switch from managed code to unmanaged code and make the call through the function pointer.  Which then ends up in a stub that switches from unmanaged code back to managed code and calls DoIt().
Presumably what you really meant to measure was a call to native code.  Use a #pragma to force DoIt() to be generated as machine code, like this:
#pragma managed(push, off)
__int64 DoIt(int n, __int64 sum)
{
    if ((n % 3) == 0)
        return sum + n;
    else
        return sum + 1;
}
#pragma managed(pop)

You'll now see that the function pointer is faster than a delegate


Kyle, Congrats for your job. One comment however : if you get the "jobOperator" thru jndi, you will be limited to one remote job. Right ? If each application running one (or more ) job registered itself to jberetweb and exposed some kind of API (REST...) to manage its job, jberetweb would be able to restart or stop remote jobs on several hosts. What do you think about this ?
Yes, the idea was to be able to deploy new jobs and being able to manage them thru one single console. For the REST API, I thought it would be easier to launch a job without a java client.

buy gabapentin online without dr approval In 1982 Emmanuel Kondok and his family were imprisoned and tortured. His father was killed in captivity and soon after release his brother died of the injuries he'd sustained through torture. Emmanuel's dramatic escape, alone at 12 years of age, and his arduous journey through eastern Africa afflicted by drought and war is a compelling story of the refugee experience.
buy Lyrica online cheap Emmanuel Kondok
I was born in Twic County in the Warrap State in South Sudan. My family were farmers, my father a community leader and a spiritual leader through heredity. In 1982 as we were on our way to market to sell produce we were intercepted by Government forces and imprisoned. My father was accused of conspiring with the rebel army.
The whole family were imprisoned in the local Garrison and tortured. Each day I was sent down to the river to wash the vehicles of the Government forces. On one of these occasions a stranger helped me to escape by swimming across the river. [This first episode in Emmanuel's escape must have been a harrowing event, more so when you consider it happened at age 12. – scribblehead] I had to cross a broad running river swimming underwater holding my breath, knowing that if I surfaced I would have been shot by the soldiers guarding me.
Reaching the other side I was on my own, afraid for my family but compelled by the will to survive. I was picked up by some strangers and joined them as they fled our homeland for Ethiopia. In the three months after my escape my father was assassinated while in captivity before the rest of my family was released. A further three months later my brother was also dead as a result of the injuries he'd sustained through torture.
The same three months my family remained in captivity, tortured and my father killed, I spent walking to Ethiopia with this band of asylum seekers. The three month walk to Ethiopia was arduous, the countryside laid waste by drought, famine and war. There was no food and no water. People had to eat what they could find in the bush, and drink their own urine. Many perished.
Surviving to reach Ethiopia, I was sent to the Pinyudo Refugee camp where I lived alongside hundreds of thousands of refugees who'd fled the brutal war. I was able to receive some schooling while at Pinyudo. However life in the refugee camp was far from ideal. At times there was as little as 400 grams of food per day.
In 1991 after a change of government in Ethiopia the South Sudanese refugees were forced to return home. Another perilous journey. I remember many people dying as they tried to cross the Gilo River. We lived again not only with constant thirst and hunger, but with the fear of wild animals. Some of those who perished were taken by lion or hyena.
Back in South Sudan I lived in the town of Panchalla on the border with Ethiopia. The Red Cross entered the town with food, water, medical aid and shelter. The aid was short lived however, as after three months the Sudanese army attacked the town, and I was forced to flee for my life yet again. The situation in South Sudan and throughout Sudan was still very dangerous, so I made my way down to Kenya, again seeking asylum from the conflict that was raging in my homeland.
When I arrived in Kenya the UNHCR received us and we were sent to the Kakuma Refugee Camp. It was while in Kakuma in 1995 I met and married my wife, Mrs Aluel Deng Piyom.
The conditions in Kakuma were also not ideal, there was often fighting between the locals and refugees, but I still found the opportunity to go to school, and I was able to finish my Secondary Schooling in 1997. Going to school was important. I learnt a lot about the world, and gained more and more knowledge about the bad things within it.
I became a Youth Leader in the camp, working with the Catholic Mission to organise social activities and teaching the children, and also with UNICEF helping to distribute school materials and teaching farming practices. I also worked with different non – government organisations advocating peace in South Sudan and Sudan.
In 2005, twenty-three years after I first fled my homeland seeking asylum, the Australian government accepted me and I moved to Sydney with my wife and two children. When I arrived in Australia I soon found a job in a fruit packing factory. I worked there for four years. I now work to support African communities living in Western Sydney.
My expectations in coming to Australia were that it would be peaceful, and that my children would be able to go school, to learn English, and to mingle with Australian children.
Learning English was difficult, and I also do miss my family in South Sudan. I know I have had a good life here; electricity, public transport and comfortable home. I also know that in Southern Sudan people are still suffering. I'm nowadays working very hard to see that other Southern Sudanese, especially children, will have the capacity to grow, just as I have had the opportunity to do.
In Australia I've worked hard to continue my education. I received an Advanced Diploma of Human Resources & Management from Granville TAFE in 2011. I also finished the Diploma of Management with Careers Australia, and I currently study for a Bachelor of Applied Business Management with University of Ballarat.
I founded the Southern Hope Community Organisation Incorporated (SHCO) in 2010, a charitable registered not-for-profit organisation providing help and support to Southern Sudanese African Australians. We provide support to widows, orphans, isolated community members and individuals who cannot do things due to disability.
The SHCO mission is to prepare South Sudanese immigrants residing in Australia to become productive citizens by providing a work and learning environment where they feel challenged, respected & accountable as they strive to meet the demands of citizenship. Our aim is to improve the lives of South Sudanese families and support their smooth integration into Australian life and local Community.
I would say to Australian a big thank you for what you have done for opening the door to refugees from all over the world.

Emmanuel Kondok works to help South Sudanese to get on their feet and find their place in a peaceful Australia after so many of them have suffered from the type of traumatic experiences he did.
From the age of 12 Emmanuel endured hardships no child should ever experience. He now works to ensure a better life for Southern Sudanese both in Australia and back in Africa, and also to raise awareness of the issues facing South Sudanese. On the occasion of my 44th birthday what I wish is that Emmanuel's children never suffer from the intolerance toward refugees that so many in our community like to express, enflamed by our profligate mass media and our defective political leaders, and which has at its root the same evil that infected the hearts of those who forced Emmanuel to endure what he did. My birthday wish is that Emmanuel and his family find peace here, that his children go to school and learn about the good that is in the world, and that he and his children mingle with Australians, where their different origins are respected and appreciated, and among whom they will each be accepted as one of our own. – Scribblehead
