The new PAS 256 standard "Buried services – Collection, recording and sharing of location information data", which complements the existing PAS 128 standard, was launched last night at the Institution of Civil Engineers in London. It is available at the BSI shop.
In the UK the total length of buried infrastructure is in excess of 4 million kilometres. The new PAS provides best practices for the collection, recording and sharing of location information data relating to underground assets and any associated above ground assets; decommissioned assets; and abandoned assets.The PAS sets out a consistent, accessible data protocol to enable effective recording and sharing of the location, state, and nature of buried assets, and recommends how existing asset records should be updated, recorded and collated. The PAS also covers the gathering of geospatial data using absolute or relative accuracy, plus associated evidence such as photographic evidence.
In the U.S. it is estimated that an underground utility is hit about every minute. Underground utility conflicts and relocations are the number one cause for project delays during road construction. Assuming the average cost of underground strikes is roughly $1000 per strike, the estimated total cost to the U.S. economy is $1.5 trillion annually.

Q: How to get access to global state from mutation namespace module? In my state I have two namespace modules: portfolio and stocks like this:
export default new Vuex.Store({
  modules: {
    stocks,
    portfolio
  }
})

In stocks I have stocks property and in portfolio I have funds property. I want to commit BUY_STOCK mutation, which needs access to stocks from stocks module and funds from profile. I set it in profile module as follows:
"BUY_STOCK"(state, {stockId, quantity, stockPrice}) {
  console.log(state.stocks.stocks, state.portfolio.funds)
}

I got undefined. That's because state is just a local module state. How can I get access to global state from this mutation?

A: You can access rootState from  vuex actions context. Instead of calling the mutation you can call an action:
actions: {
 buyStock(context, {stockId, quantity, stockPrice}) {
    console.log(context.state.funds) // access local state
    console.log(context.rootState.stocks.stocks) // access stocks state through rootState
    // Then call mutations with the retrieved values
    context.commit("BUY_STOCK", {stockData, portfolioData})
  }
}

A: It seems like you didn't import the profile module to the store/index.js,
so it would look like this:
export default new Vuex.Store({
  modules: {
    stocks,
    portfolio,
    profile
  }
})

And you should probably consider using getters in each module:
portifolio.js
export default {
  state: {
    funds: 'Some funds'
  },
  getters: {
    funds(state) {
      return state.funds
    }
  }
}

stocks.js
export default {
  state: {
    stocks: 'Some stocks'
  },
  getters: {
    stocks(state) {
      return state.stocks
    }
  }
}

Now you can access them from the profile module like so:
profile.js
export default {
  actions: {
    BUY_STOCK({ getters }, { stockId, quantity, stockPrice }) {
      console.log(getters.funds, getters.stocks)
    }
  }
}

The great hybrid experiment
For Cisco, the task is clear—how to make the World's Best Workplace the World's Best Hybrid Workplace.
by Francine Katsoudas
The great hybrid work experiment is about to begin. For Cisco, our task is clear—how to make the World's Best Workplace the World's Best Hybrid Workplace. And we know there's much trial and error ahead and a lot for us to learn, but here are some of the things we do know.
Remote is nothing new for Cisco. In early 2020 when our entire company went remote, the transition was actually not as hard as it may have seemed. There are employees at Cisco who have worked here for over a decade and have been "remote" the entire time, never having a desk in a Cisco office.
But we know that the office has changed forever, and we won't be returning to the office or using physical space in the same way as before. While about half of our employees were in the office four to five days a week pre-pandemic, less than a quarter want to be in an office three or more days a week when offices re-open.
And as the world has changed, so too has the importance of empathy and well-being. We put mental health front and center at Cisco three years ago, which served us well as our people navigated the challenges and concerns produced by the pandemic. This focus will remain for us in the new world of work, requiring leaders who have empathy, flexibility, and proximity top of mind.
So what will this new world of work be? It will be hybrid. Hybrid for every employee at Cisco. Whether that means you work five days a week at home and gather with your team for activities and connection every once in a while, or you are in the office five days a week leveraging the collaborative office configuration and technology to connect to your colleagues around the world—every Cisco employee will be hybrid.
Work is not where you go, it's what you do
Our people have adapted incredibly well to changing workstyles, demonstrating resilience and productivity during a challenging and uncertain period. But we've also learned that work styles and work preferences are different for everyone. There is no one-size-fits-all. To best play to our employees' strengths, we have to be flexible, adaptable, and open to what works best for each individual and team.
To best play to our employees' strengths, we have to be flexible, adaptable, and open to what works best for each individual and team.
Because we know that when we get teams right, we win. So we are going to leave it up to teams themselves to determine how they'll work best in this new hybrid world. That means no set mandate from the top on numbers of days in—or out—of the office.
We know this will be a learn-as-we-go process and a challenge for our leaders. So we'll check in with our leaders and teams every few months to determine what is working and what is not, and make the necessary adjustments. But in the same way that listening to our people helped guide our decision-making throughout the pandemic, we'll continue to listen and use our peoples' direct feedback to determine the future direction of how we work as a company.
New commitments for a new world of work
For us to succeed, we have to establish new and elevated levels of trust and transparency within our teams and our company as a whole. To do that we are laying out what we're calling Our Collaboration Commitments—a set of expectations and beliefs laid out for individuals, leaders, and teams around topics including accountability, inclusion, and well-being. A leader commitment around well-being, for example, states, "I understand how my team members work and what they achieve matters more than where and when they work." These commitments will help set the tone for the culture we'll need for our people and teams to succeed.
We know that leaders will have a central role to play in creating and maintaining this conscious culture. It will be our team leaders who will model our hybrid work philosophy, leading with empathy and proximity to their teams. We know this is asking a lot of our people, which is why we're experimenting with new methods of team and leader learning to support the transition into this new way of working. And if we can get it right, we know that a spirit of flexibility and adaptability will allow us to meet our business needs while playing to the strengths of our people and their preferred work styles.
Powering hybrid work
Any approach to hybrid work is going to require people to be able to connect using seamless and secure collaboration and infrastructure technology. At Cisco, we think about powering hybrid work in two distinct ways: enabling a Hybrid Workforce and transforming Hybrid Workspaces. Enabling a Hybrid Workforce means providing secure access and collaboration from anywhere, anytime. Transforming your Hybrid Workspace must bring together networking, security, and collaboration tools to enhance health and well-being, safety, and efficiencies.
Take Webex as an example. We have the unique opportunity to embed inclusion into our collaboration platform, marked by well-being and ensuring every voice is heard and valued. Our new People Insights feature aligns with the goals people set personally for their meetings, work-life integration, connections, and focus time, helping people work smarter and combat burnout. And we now have innovations that include real-time translations and meeting transcriptions from English into 108 languages and counting, and gesture recognition allows users to communicate non-verbally without having to tap icons. Such innovations will help us ensure that we are powering a hybrid world that levels the playing field and works for everyone, everywhere.
Real estate for a purpose
What's the value of commuting into an office on a day when your time will be spent sitting at a desk sending emails and being on video calls? As we begin to open our offices around the world, we have to ensure that our people aren't returning to the same offices that they left. Much like how work has fundamentally changed, the purpose of our physical space must fundamentally change too. Instead of a focus on the where, the focus is on the work.
Before the pandemic, 95% of our space was allocated to individuals. That needs to change. We must transform the purpose of our offices to be centers of collaboration—places that people can come together for rituals, collective work, and connection. For some teams that will happen a couple days a week, while for others it could be coming together once a month. But the purpose of coming into the office should be exactly that—purposeful. In the hybrid world we'll best utilize our offices by transforming them into spaces optimized for teams to innovate, collaborate, and connect.
A sustainable future (of work)
Right now, we have the opportunity to impact not only what the future of work will be, but what the future of our planet will be. By bridging our hybrid work approach with our commitment to sustainability, we can ensure that when Cisco has a significant presence in a community our impact on that community is positive. This spirit of community enrichment is already part of our ethos at Cisco — we've reached over 80 percent community impact participation by our employees for two years in a row, and we know we can go even further to make impact a habit.
Rethinking space utilization, developing sustainable and regenerative products, designing energy-efficient and carbon-reducing buildings—these are all on the table as we transform how we work and the impact we have on the world around us. We know that Cisco's products and platforms can—and must—power a hybrid world that has sustainability at its core, because an inclusive future of work must be a sustainable future of work.
We know that the move to a hybrid world is not going to be easy. There will be growing pains, messiness, and uncertainties. But the challenges of hybrid work are our opportunities for innovation. The opportunity to create a future of work that's more inclusive, more connected, and more collaborative than the one that came before. And we know that if we do this right, we can usher in a better future for our people, our communities, and our world. Let the experiment begin.

Seattle Office Space News – January 2016
11/ February 2016
Below are comments and links to news articles and other topics relevant to the Seattle office space market from the month of January 2016.
Office development is challenging and January brought news of hurdles for a few projects in Seattle. The proposed 102 story Crescent Heights Tower in Seattle's CBD hit a roadblock when the FAA delivered a "notice of presumed hazard" to the developer. The building would be the tallest on the west coast and the FAA is concerned that the tower would interfere with operations at Boeing field. Preliminary document show the FAA would rule in favor of a redesigned tower at a shorter height of 965 feet rather than the 1,117 foot height currently being proposed.
The proposed Maritime Building redevelopment on Seattle's waterfront is also facing some resistance. The city's Landmarks Preservation Board voted to give the building landmark status, which will require all alterations to be approved by the Board. More renderings of the proposed redevelopment can be found here.
A hospitality Labor Union is fighting the proposed Rainier Square redevelopment in the central business district. The Unite Here Union states that developer Wright Runstad has not contributed enough to the city's affordable housing program, as it should under the scope of the project. A review board is set for March 30th.
In better news for development, the Seattle Design Commission reviewed Skanska's 38 story office project at Second and Union in downtown Seattle and approvals are on schedule for construction to start in August of this year. Completion is set for 2018.
Kilroy Realty Corp has announced they are targeting a fall construction start for a 600,000 square foot office project on the former King 5 site in South Lake Union. It is unclear if Kilroy will begin construction without preleasing for the site named 333 Dexter Ave.
This article details the eight new office buildings that will be opening in the northwest in 2016.
In January, Vulcan Real Estate issued its annual update showing that the company sold nearly $1.2 billion worth of assets and completed three developments totaling 1.3 million square feet in 2015.
OFFICE LEASES
Data visualization company Tableau continues to gobble up space in the Northwest. This month they confirmed rumors of signed leases in Seattle and Kirkland. Tableau will be taking over an 110,000 square foot building next to its headquarters in Fremont and will also be expanding by 92,000 square feet in Kirkland. The company now has 16 locations in 10 countries worldwide.
Daily deals website Groupon seems to be having success hiring engineers in Seattle, as it has just inked a lease for 42,000 square feet of space at 1201 Third in Downtown Seattle. The new office will have enough space for 400 employees.
Snapchat found a home in Seattle by signing a lease for 8,000 square feet at 101 Stewart across the street from Pike Place Market. Snapchat is just the latest of several companies opening an engineering outpost in the Northwest.
Singapore based GrabTaxi, also opened a new engineering office in Seattle. The ride hailing service focused in Southeast Asia has signed a lease for just over 3,000 square feet in Two Union Square downtown.
In no surprise, office space rents were up 28% percent year to date in the South Lake Union office submarket with other markets trailing closely behind. On average, asking rents increased 7.5% last year hitting a ten year peak. With Amazon being responsible for much of the growth in Seattle, experts are forecasting that increases will not continue on this rapid trajectory in 2016.
With rising rents, comes increased commercial real estate investment. Seattle is now rated in the top five U.S. cities for foreign commercial real estate investors. Some recent evidence of this trend is the $711 million dollar sale of the Columbia Tower to Hong Kong based Gaw Capital.
The Seattle area housing market is also on fire. One recent study showed Seattle is the 3rd highest city for rent growth in the Nation.
Home prices in King County have jumped 15% year to date with the median price of a single family home hitting a record of $508,000. There has also been a record volume of home sales with 88,331 homes sold in Washington, up 14.3% from 2014. Finally, cash sales for homes have increased 38% year to date, evident of the increasingly competitive market.
Zillow has Seattle ranked as the second hottest market for 2016 behind San Francisco with an estimated 5.4% increase in home prices forecasted.
At the regions 44th annual forecast, business leaders continued to show optimism for the Pacific Northwest fueled by growth at Amazon, Microsoft, and Boeing as well as other large technology firms. Experts forecast that the economy will expand by 2.5%, while much of the nation is expected to remain stagnant in 2016.
The U.S. Census Bureau also recently ranked Seattle as the ninth most educated city in the country.
TUNNEL/VIADUCT
In January the giant tunnel boring machine nicknamed Bertha was moving about an inch a minute after finally making its way out of the rescue pit where it underwent repairs for almost two years. However, just when the project was moving forward, Governor Inslee ordered the project to stop after the formation of a sinkhole along the waterfront. Seattle Tunnel Partners disagrees with the move stating that stopping Bertha could create more problems. Bertha has completed about 1,280 feet of the tunnel that will eventually replace the Alaskan Way Viaduct and has nearly 8,000 more feet to go. If Bertha ever completes its journey, there are several new developments that plan to cash in on the new waterfront promenade.
Finally, on March 19th the Sound Transit light rail project connecting the University of Washington to Westlake Station will be open for use.

Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., speaks to members of the media at her alma mater, Howard University, in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 21.
Sen. Kamala Harris and former Vice President Joe Biden generate the most excitement among Democratic voters in California when it comes to the field of 2020 presidential candidates, according to a survey released Wednesday.
But while 58 percent of California Democrats surveyed were excited about a Harris candidacy, the full range of respondents to the Quinnipiac University poll were divided about whether she would be a good president. Overall, 40 percent of voters surveyed said she would be a good commander in chief, while 38 percent said she wouldn't.
The survey also found that 53 percent of those surveyed approve of the job Harris is doing as a senator, while 32 percent disapprove.
Harris, as the only big-name Californian in the race so far, is counting on a strong showing in her home state's presidential primary, which offers the most delegates of any state.
But the divided feelings about Harris in the Quinnipiac survey show that "there's a big difference between being excited about a candidate and writing a check to her campaign or putting a sign in your front yard," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the poll.
"Yes, she's a good senator, the voters are saying. But they are wondering if she's battle-tested and ready to be leader of the free world," Malloy said.
The survey found that 60 percent of Democrats and those who lean Democratic "would be excited" if Biden — who has not yet announced whether he is running — became the nominee. The survey did not ask respondents whether candidates other than Harris would be a good president.
Biden and Harris generated far more excitement than other Democrats. The survey found that 44 percent of Democrats would be excited for both Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders; 40 percent felt that way about former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, who has not yet announced whether he is running; and 21 percent were excited about New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand.
The survey did not measure excitement for New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, who just announced his candidacy, or former Obama administration official Julián Castro.
Responses about whether Harris would be a good president varied wildly by the age, location and party affiliation of the voter.
While 68 percent of Democrats said Harris would be a good president, 75 percent of Republicans and 42 percent of independent voters said she wouldn't.
"Is she a candidate for the whole state? We don't see that yet," Malloy said.
That is not the prevailing opinion among California voters, according to the survey. Only 41 percent said they supported replacing private health insurance with a single-payer system run by the state, while 46 percent opposed it. Democrats supported the idea, 61 to 24 percent.
Quinnipiac surveyed 912 registered voters by landlines and cell phones, in English and Spanish, from Jan. 30 to Feb. 4. The margin of error was 4.1 percentage points. For the subsample of 452 Democratic or Democratic-leaning voters, the margin of error was 5.9 percentage points.

Q: EditText loses value when scrolling ListView android I have a custom ListView that each item of ListView contains two EditTexts.
For example when I put values for EditTexts in first item of ListView, and after that I scrolling down to the end of ListView, I see that the last item of ListView is filled automatically, and also when I scrolling up, the first item loses its values.
NOTE: I use TextWatcher in this case.
What should I do for solving this problem?
This is my adapter:
public class MyResultAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Integer> {

    ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> boardInformation = new ArrayList<>();

    EditText foodPrice;
    EditText foodName;

    Context context;
    int layoutView;

    public MyResultAdapter(Context context, int layoutView) {
        super(context, layoutView);

        this.context = context;
        this.layoutView = layoutView;
    }

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent){

        View view = convertView;

        boolean convertViewWasNull = false;
        if(view == null)
        {
            view = LayoutInflater.from(getContext()).inflate(layoutView, parent, false);
            convertViewWasNull = true;
        }

        foodPrice = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.food_price);
        foodName = (EditText) view.findViewById(R.id.food_name);

        if(convertViewWasNull )
        {
            //be aware that you shouldn't do this for each call on getView, just once by listItem when convertView is null
            foodPrice.addTextChangedListener(new GenericTextWatcher(foodPrice, position, "price"));
            foodName.addTextChangedListener(new GenericTextWatcher(foodName, position, "name"));
        }

        return view;
    }

    private class GenericTextWatcher implements TextWatcher{

A: I assume you are aware that you are reusing the views in the ListView using the convertView -- reusing the same views that go off the screen for the views that enter the screen.

i see that the last item of listview is filled automatically

That might be because that view has been reused from another view where you have entered some text in the EditText.

and also when i scrolling up, the first item loses its values.

The same reason as above. Some other view is being reused in this position.
Solution:
Save the user entered text in a List of some model objects. For example, like this ArrayList<MyData>. The MyData object has the typed text. And the List has one object for each item in your list.
Now in the getView callback get the text from the ArrayList<MyData> for the corresponding position and set it to the EditText.

CALLUM PATERSON faces an agonising three-month spell on the sidelines for Cardiff City and Scotland.
The versatile ace will need an operation on his ankle after an awkward fall playing for the Tartan Army against San Marino.
Paterson went for a scan on his return that revealed he has picked up damage to ligaments too and his season is over in a major blow.
Neil Warnock ensured Paterson, 24, would miss Scotland's game on Kazakhstan's artificial pitch.
But in a cruel twist of fate he picked up the injury on grass in their next game.
Paterson will also be out of Scotland's end of season internationals to leave Alex McLeish with even less options for his attack.
The under-fire boss was booed after the narrow win over San Marino after a dire start to the Euro 2020 qualifiers.
And things are not getting any easier with group favourites Belgium to come.
Cardiff face Chelsea on Sunday before a tricky trip to Manchester City.
And Warnock will be gutted to lose Paterson - his joint top scorer this season.
The Bluebirds are currently just inside the drop zone, two points behind Burnley and Southampton.
But with a game against the Clarets, as well as struggling Brighton and Fulham, Warnock will be hopeful his side can creep over the line.

Therapeutic strategy for progressive renal disease
Koichi Hayashi, Y. Ozawa, H. Tokuyama
Department of Internal Medicine (Nephrology, Endocrinology and Metabolism)
Renal disease constitutes an important determinant of cardiovascular disease. Although the mechanisms for the progression of renal impairment remain fully undetermined, available evidence indicate that renal glomerular hypertension is responsible in part for the development of renal injury. In renal disease, afferent arteriolar tone is reported to be reduced, while the augmented intrarenal angiotensin II serves to act as an efferent arteriolar constrictor, both of which result in an increase in glomerular capillary pressure. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) are established as the agent possessing both antihypertensive and renoprotective actions, which exert vasodilator action on efferent arterioles. Calcium antagonists are also reported to have salutary effect on renal disease, although their beneficial action varies depending on the antagonists used and the underlying disease. The use of calcium antagonists, however, is mandatory particularly under the circumstance where renal failure moderately to severely progresses and the ACE-I cannot be used.

This course will present security strategies that protect employees and guests and help prevent potential lawsuits. The fundamentals of hospitality law will be presented. It will also cover major facility systems and ways to streamline operations and address environmental concerns. The organization and management of workforce will be discussed along with resource conservation practices.


The NGO Committee is made up of mainly religious-based organizations that want to advocate for financial and trade reforms that could help reduce poverty in the countries in which their networks are active. These folks are not professional lobbyists but have lots of field experience that they can use in talking to government representatives at the UN. What they lack is the technical background on the issues.
GPIA students will prepare a joint paper on policy issues in one or more topics and make a presentation to the Committee (as the deliverable). During the semester they will contact NGO and academic experts and do desk research on the issues chosen, and should be able to get passes to go to General Assembly committee meetings during the semester when their issues are discussed.
It will be necessary to wait until September to select the precise topic(s), as it depends in part on meetings taking place at the UN now and into September (Summit on the MDGs). Meanwhile, the NGO Committee has formed subgroups on different issues and our students would probably work on one or more of these.

Animé Goes Live
By Ilya Garger | Tokyo Monday, June 21, 2004
In her role as a cartoon heroine in the new movie Cutie Honey, Eriko Sato pouts, giggles, and snuffs out a gang of villains who threaten to destroy Tokyo. It's exactly the kind of bubblegum part that might give a serious young actress second thoughts. But in Japan, where manga and animé characters are treated with almost spiritual reverence, stepping into Cutie Honey's go-go boots means becoming the custodian of a national treasure—and Sato, 22, is delighted with the assignment. "You really think I look like a cartoon character?" she bubbles, pinching her cheeks as if to prove to herself that...


Clearly I've been a bit MIA lately. I make myself feel better about it by saying it's the holidays no one is really posting. That's probably not true but I've been so busy with other crap that I haven't actually verified it as a fact. I'm just going to go with it.
What have I been up to? Lots of boring lame stuff. I'm working two jobs, wifing and mothering, minimaly craftying, showering, sleeping, and occasionally making dinner. Basically, I can't wait until training is over and they stop switching my schedule every ten days.
How am I going to make it up to you. I'm probably not. I am however going to share with you some random cards that didn't get posted over 2014. Stuff I made, took pictures of and then just didn't do anything with. Some are good, some are meh, some are bad. Sorry leftovers is all I have to give you. I don't mean to treat you like unexpected house guests but it's the best I've got right now. It's a lot of cards if that makes it any better. No? Let's pretend like it's awesome.
I'd like to say I'll see you soon, and I am hopefully that I will, however I feel it's important to be honest in any relationship. it could be awhile. Let's not lie to each other.
Kelly, you crack me up- I just LOVE your posts and I would have NEVER guessed that these were the leftovers! Your bright and bold style just shines in each and every one of these projects! Happy 2015!! I hope to see you SOON!
Awesome cards! Hoping you will have more creative time soon!!
What a great group! Love the colors on these--you have such a fun style!
I don't need to pretend like it's awesome, Kelly, because it IS awesome! I would have been so happy to steal any one of these cards and call them my own, if you'd only just left them in a heap in the corner of your blog. Try thinking about that next time, okay! Seriously, I DO love them all, silly girl, and do miss you!
These are so pretty!! I think your cards are pretty awesome!! I love seeing a group like this. Each is beautiful in its own special way!! Happy New Year!! Heres to things calming down for you!!
I love seeing your leftovers! One thing that always surprises me is that no matter how much I may dislike one of my cards, someone out there will love it. I'm sometimes surprised at how quickly the cards I'm ambivalent about sell while ones that I think are absolutely genius sit on the rack and collect dust. Thank goodness for different tastes!


William Jackson looks at the key battles City must win in order to leave Ewood Park with the points.
Fraizer Campbell didn't even get onto the pitch last weekend at Villa Park, but after Chris Martin drew a blank at last week, he may be brought into the starting XI to face Blackburn this weekend and the striker will fancy his chances against a makeshift defence.
Former Manchester City and Everton midfielder Jack Rodwell has featured as a centre-back over the last couple of games in Charlie Mulgrew's absence, something Campbell will hope to exploit at Ewood Park.
Rovers may not have conceded a goal since New Year's Day in the league, but Rodwell lack of defensive nous of an experienced defender and that could prove pivotal against such a wily attacker.
Rodwell is physical and it will be a battle, but with six goals in his last ten games the striker is flying high in confidence and will be poised to pounce on anything that may fall his way.
Few players in the Championship are attracting the attention Bradley Dack is at present and rightly so, he has taken to the division like a duck to water.
Despite never playing at a level higher than League One prior to this season, Dack has bagged ten Championship goals from midfield, including the winner when the two sides met earlier in the season, and as the more defensive of City's two midfielders it will be up to Kevin Stewart to track his dangerous runs forward.
Stewart has made the midfield spot his own in recent weeks with several man of the match worthy performances, none more so than at Villa Park last time out.
The midfielder has developed an edge which was previously missing from his game and after dominating Sheffield Wednesday's midfield and Villa's in successive weeks, he will confident in his abilities to take care of Blackburn's main goal threat.
Like Stewart, Todd Kane seems to be hitting something close to his best form in black and amber of late to nail down his spot in the side, something he hasn't always been able to do during his time at the club.
His performance at Villa Park justified Adkins' decision to play him over Eric Lichaj and he would have the right to feel hard done by to miss out this weekend after wrapping up Yannick Bolasie so convincingly.
Armstrong will be a different challenge, though. The 21-year-old is fine form recently, bagging two goals and two assists in his last five games in all competitions and cutting in off the wing he will pose a threat.


My primary side business is teaching private music lessons. Whether you are looking to become the star of the karaoke night at the club, polish up your keyboard skills and join a band, or warm up your high school flute skills, I'd be thrilled to help coach you.
Lessons include learning music (please let me know your favorites and we'll work them in!) to play on your chosen instrument, sight reading, theory and technique.
You may choose to take at my studio in Marble Falls or in my home in Kingsland, Texas.
Please contact me for current available lesson times.
I have been teaching music since 2004. I studied Music Therapy at Texas Women's University from 1978-1980, and received my degree in music with a vocal emphasis in 2010 from Howard Payne University. I teach voice, piano, flute and therapeutic music. I have taught at Harmony School of Creative Arts as a private teacher, Marble Falls High School and Marble Falls Middle school as a vocal coach, and I currently teach general music to the wonderful students at Colt Elementary in Marble Falls, where I have been for 5 years.

For several reasons, including lack of resource and inherent ambiguity, not all names in the NZETC are marked-up. This means that finding all references to a topic often involves searching. Search for Taupo as: "Taupo". Additional references are often found by searching for just the main name of the topic (the surname in the case of people).
The following collections may have holdings relevant to "Taupo":
Dictionary of New Zealand Biography, which has entries for many prominent New Zealanders.
Archives New Zealand, which has collections of maps, plans and posters; immigration passenger lists; and probate records.
National Library of New Zealand, which has extensive collections of published material.
Auckland War Memorial Museum, which has extensive holdings on the Auckland region and New Zealand military history.

Q: Windows 10 get UAP version How do I get programatically current Windows 10 UAP version?
I did not find any suitable class or method.
GetVersionEx does not seem to be supported.

Bankruptcy Code - what is it and do other authorities apply for bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy Code: The Bankruptcy Reform Act of 2005 amended many sections of Title 11 of the United States Code (also called the Bankruptcy Code, Title 11, or 11 U.S.C.). These statutes will often be cited in a bankruptcy case by parties who are discussing various rights and duties.
Bankruptcy Rules: Procedural rules regarding bankruptcy cases are found in the Federal Bankruptcy Rules of Bankruptcy Procedures (FRBP) at the US Courts website. You may also view proposed and pending rule amendments. In addition, the Cornell Law School posts an unofficial version (which may not always be current).
Local Rules: This court has local rules, that, together with the administrative orders also apply in bankruptcy cases in the Southern District of Florida.
Related Laws: Other laws of federal, state, or municipal governments may be applicable in a bankruptcy because of a specific situation that may affect the debtor at the time a bankruptcy case is filed. Examples are family law, contracts, real estate transactions, unsecured loans, taxes, medical situations, personal injury, etc. Review the Bankruptcy Checklist to verify what situation applies to you.
Bankruptcy terminology - where can I find the definitions?
You may also wish to refer to the Bankruptcy Terminology located on our Don't Have a Lawyer page which provides a translation of the most commonly used terms in both Spanish and Creole.
Certified copy - how do I obtain a certified copy of a document or an entire case file?
Certified or exemplified copies of documents can ONLY be requested from the clerk's office. The fee for copying and certifying is provided in the Judicial Conference Bankruptcy Court Miscellaneous Fee Schedule, posted on the court's website. Because certification is intended to authenticate that a document is the official document and not an altered version, persons who presently require certified documents (e.g., sheriffs, banks, other courts who have access to PACER) may opt to view the documents directly by accessing the court's database, instead of requiring paper certified copies. This will eliminate the possibility of the presentation of fraudulent documents.
Conventional (paper) filing - which local rules address conventional (paper) filing when electronic filing is not authorized, technically accessible, or where a waiver of the electronic filing requirement is requested?
Copies - how do I get copies of documents?
A) Using Computer to Print Documents from CM/ECF PACER - Electronic docket information and images of all documents filed in a bankruptcy case or adversary proceeding may be retrieved and printed via the terminals located at each divisional clerk's office. Please review the Clerk's Instructions for Electronic Public Access Services.
B) Clerk's Office at Each Division – Copies may be ordered at the clerk's Office in person or by mail, and there is a search fee and a per-page fee. If ordered by mail, include a self-addressed, stamped envelope to return the copies. Please review the Clerk's Instructions for Obtaining Copies of Court Records.
Copies - how do I obtain copies of court documents filed in cases prior to October 17, 2005?
Copies of paper court documents in pending or recently closed cases filed prior to October 17, 2005, may be obtained from the clerk's office at a cost of $0.50 per page. Paper case files are normally located in the clerk's divisional office where the assigned judge is chambered.
Court Security - what identification do I need and what are the security restrictions for entering the court building?
All visitors to the court or clerk's offices will need to present current, valid, government issued picture identification (driver's license, state identification card, passport, or immigration card) for entry into the buildings. This has been mandated by the Department of Homeland Security for all visitors, including the public conducting personal business. Minors do not have to present picture identification if accompanied by an adult; however, unaccompanied minors must adhere to the rule. Those with no or unacceptable identification must be escorted by a government employee of the building to be granted access. Debtors appearing at their 341 meeting of creditors must also provide current valid government issued picture identification as described above when attending the scheduled meeting. (See also Local Rule 5072-2, Court Security).
Courtroom access - can CM/ECF or PACER be accessed in courtrooms and 341 meeting rooms?
PACER access terminals are available for viewing documents only, in all seven courtrooms and in all three clerk's office public intake locations free of charge. However, the clerk's office does not provide PACER access in 341 meeting rooms.
Courtroom behavior - is there information on how to act in the courtroom?
Yes, there are Guidelines for Courtroom Decorum availble to review. These guidelines will be strictly enforced at all times, whether or not the Judge is in the courtroom. Cell phones, beepers and any other device that makes noise must be turned off, or placed on vibrate, and may not be used, while court is in session. Court is in session at any time the proceedings are being recorded even if the Judge is not present in the courtroom.
Credit Counseling vs. Financial Management - what are the differences?
An individual debtor must complete TWO DIFFERENT CLASSES to obtain a discharge. The names for these courses are: 1) Credit Counseling and 2) Personal Financial Management. The courses are different in two ways: (a) when the class must be taken; and (b) what type of individual debtor must take the class. If a bankruptcy case is filed jointly, each spouse must take both classes and get their individual separate Certificates of Completion.
1) CREDIT COUNSELING, Before Filing For Bankruptcy – The Bankruptcy Code requires an individual debtor (not a business debtor) complete an approved course in Credit Counseling within 180 days before filing a bankruptcy case. There are very limited exceptions [see 11 U.S.C. 109(h)]. The approved course agency will provide a Certificate of Completion, but you are required to file the Certificate. Read this important warning notice [Spanish] [Creole] about the consumer credit counseling course you must complete before you file your petition.
2) PERSONAL FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, Very Soon After Filing for Bankruptcy - In order to obtain a discharge of debts, an individual debtor (not a business debtor) must complete an approved course in Personal Financial Management within 60 days after the 341(a) Meeting of Creditors. The approved course agency will provide a Certificate of Completion, but you are required to file the Certificate.
Credit Report - how do I remove inaccurate information from my credit report, even if I have not filed for bankruptcy?
For more information about the Fair Credit Reporting Act or for information about disputing your credit report, visit the Federal Trade Commission or contact them at 877-FTC_HELP (382-4357).
Note: If your credit report indicates that you have filed for bankruptcy in the Southern District of Florida, but you have never filed for bankruptcy, you may request the clerk's office conduct a search of its bankruptcy records by submitting Local Form 85, Application for Search of Bankruptcy Records, along with the appropriate research and certification fees. You will receive a Certificate of Search that will verify whether a bankruptcy case was filed in this court. Contact the credit reporting agency FIRST to determine if this is a document that they will accept from you.
If a bankruptcy case was fraudulently filed without your knowledge or consent, you must immediately notify the court in writing so that a hearing can be scheduled to investigate the fraudulent claim. Only after the court receives your written correspondence, a hearing will be set which will require your appearance along with a valid government identification (e.g. drivers license).
Discharge - what is it?
A bankruptcy discharge releases the debtor from personal liability for certain specified types of debts. Additional information about a discharge (when it occurs, dischargeable debts, objections or revocations, etc.) can be found at the United States Courts website under Discharge in Bankruptcy – Bankruptcy Basics.
Filing - can anyone use CM/ECF to file any type of documents with the court?
Access to the full filing portion of CM/ECF is only available to authorized attorneys admitted to the Southern District of Florida Bar and who are qualified to practice before this court (Review Attorney Admissions). However, attorneys appearing under Local Rule 2090-1(C)(1) and creditors without attorneys [See Local Rule 5005-4(B)(3)] may become registered users with "limited" creditor filing privileges (Review New User Registration) permitting them to electronically file certain notices and other documents. In addition, any claimant or the claimant's agent may utilize the ePOC program to submit a proof of claim form electronically, which does not require registration in CM/ECF [Local Rule 3001-1(A)(1)].
Filing Fees - what is it?
To complete certain transactions with the court payment of a filing fee must be received. Payments for filing fees, other than for payments by those permitted to pay with a credit card when filing electronically, must be remitted in the exact amount due for the fee owed and must be made in cash, money order or certified cashier's check. Personal or business checks will not be accepted (see Local Rule 5081-1, Fees – Form of Payment). For more information visit Clerk's Summary of Fees and Acceptable Forms of Payment.
Forms - where can I find the local forms, official bankruptcy forms, etc.?
Copies of all forms can be found at the U.S. Courts website under Forms and are further subdivided by category, for example: Bankruptcy Forms. Additionally, this court has adopted various local forms for use in filing documents in this court. If a local rule or administrative order directs you to use a specific local form, you must use the latest version of the form which is posted on this court's web site. Visit our All Forms page to review the combination of forms that may be needed during the life of your case.
Fraud - whom do I notify of potential bankruptcy fraud?
Fraudulent activity may have been committed by a debtor, an insider of a debtor, a creditor, a trustee, an attorney or other professional, or a bankruptcy petition preparer. Fraudulent activity may include hiding assets, fraudulently transferring property, lying under oath, knowingly filing false affidavits or declarations, knowingly filing false proofs of claim, or knowingly providing false information. To report suspected bankruptcy fraud to the Department of Justice follow the instructions provided.

For further information visit the MMM program page which includes the procedures, eligibility requirements, and all related forms.
Motion - what is it?
A motion is a request to the court, stating the case number, case name, and specifically detailing the action you (the movant) wishes the Court to take. Anytime you want to ask the judge to do something you are supposed to file a motion not write a letter.
Personal information - what type should not be included in documents filed with the court?
Bankruptcy Rule 9037(a) establishes privacy protection for filings made with the court. If a party files a document containing information that should be restricted from public access (e.g., social security number, financial account number, date of birth, minor's name), the party will need to file forms directing the clerk to restrict the unredacted document and pay the filing fee [see Local Rule 5005-1].
Local Rule 5005-1(A)(3) sets forth the procedure for filing an ex parte motion to redact personal information.
Signatures - what local rules address signatures on electronically filed documents?
Signature of Judges: Local Rule 5091-1 provides that any order entered electronically without the judge's original signature has the same force and effect as if the judge signed a paper copy of the order and it was entered on the docket conventionally.
Signatures of Registered Users: Local Rule 9011-4(A)(2)(a) provides that a registered user's electronic signature has the same force and effect as if the registered user signed a paper copy of the document being filed.
Local Rule 5005-4(C) provides that documents that are electronically filed and require original signatures other than that of the registered user must be maintained in paper form at least five years from the date of discharge of the debtor, dismissal of the case or final resolution of all appeals pending in the case, whichever is later. This retention neither affects nor replaces any other retention period required by other laws or rules of procedure. The court may require the production of original documents for review by the court, a trustee, the U.S. Trustee, or any interested party.
Local Rule 3070-1(D), Wage Deduction Orders, requires that a proposed Local Form 75 "Agreed Order to Employer to Deduct and Remit and for Related Matters" be signed by the debtor and debtor's attorney and if the proposed order is submitted to the court in electronic format, the order must contain the actual imaged signature of the debtor.
Trustee - what is a U.S. Trustee? a case trustee?
The US Trustee is an officer of the Justice Department responsible for supervising the administration of bankruptcy cases, estates, and trustees, monitoring plans and disclosure statements, monitoring creditors' committees, monitoring fee applications, and performing other statutory duties. Please visit the Office of the U.S. Trustee page for more information.
A case trustee is the representative of the bankruptcy estate who exercises statutory powers, principally for the benefit of the unsecured creditors, under the general supervision of the court and the direct supervision of the U.S. trustee or bankruptcy administrator. The trustee is a private individual appointed in all chapter 7, chapter 12, and chapter 13 cases and some chapter 11 cases. The trustee's responsibilities include reviewing the debtor's petition and schedules and bringing actions against creditors or the debtor to recover property of the bankruptcy estate. In chapter 7, the trustee liquidates property of the estate, and makes distributions to creditors. Trustees in chapter 12 and 13 have similar duties to a chapter 7 trustee and the additional responsibilities of overseeing the debtor's plan, receiving payments from debtors, and disbursing plan payments to creditors.

Q: How do I click on highlighted option in selenium webdriver c#? I am working with select2 element. I open the option bar by clicking on the arrow, then enter text to filter the options to only one and then I dont know how to click on that option, so It could be selected, any ideas?
    driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//*[@id='s2id_testid']/a/span[2]/b")).Click();
    driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("#select2-drop input.select2-input")).SendKeys("54");

A: You can harness the power of the driver as you have already done with the FindElement function. Instead of using By.XPath or By.CssSelector use, By.Id and simply ensure that the select2 element option that you're trying to click has an id.  If it doesn't have one, make sure that you have one assigned in your markup or that a predictable one is generated when your HTML is rendered.
    driver.FindElement(By.Id("myKnownId")).Click();

Often I try using the selenium feature as a means for extensibility.  For example, you can use the following to check if an element with a given identifier is either visible or not visible.
    [Then(@"An element with the identifier (.*) is (visible|not visible)")]
    public void ThenAnElementWithTheIdentifierIsVisible(string identifier, string visibility)
    {
        if (visibility.Equals("visible"))
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(string.Format("Starting to wait for element with identifier {0} to be visible.", identifier));
            Driver.WaitUntil(d => d.FindElement(By.Id(identifier))
                                   .Displayed);

        }
        else if (visibility.Equals("not visible"))
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(string.Format("Starting to wait for element with identifier {0} to not be visible.", identifier));
            Driver.WaitUntil(d => !d.FindElement(By.Id(identifier))
                                    .Displayed);
        }
    }

This allows for re-use and you can easily see how powerful this can become as you build out your UI testing.


I recently took my first fencing class.
It was all I'd hoped it would be.
It has been a while since I've taken part in something purposefully competitive. Years of competition tennis, swimming carvinals and debating teams during my formative years, (and, perhaps, my existence as middle child) have engendered me with more than a dash of a competitive streak. I had too many successes as a youth, and not enough failures.
Nowadays, I've got this idea that if there's something I want to do, I can do it, I could best anyone if I worked for it. That's how I ended up in this fencing situation after all, so it can't be that bad a trait.
We learnt the steps, forwards and back, the lunge, attack, counter-attack, parry 4, reposte. It's starting to seem all familiar. Tomorrow, I'll do some training on my own. Not yet with swords and masks (for even I am not overconfident enough to presume readiness for that on my own), but with my own two feet.
If you see a straight white line on the ground, think of me, moving back, forth along it. Step forward, step forward, step back. On my way.

About Reclining Standards
Remembering Melissa Lynch: The Honey Bee Cabaret (June 2014)
By David Fox on June 17, 2014 • ( Leave a comment )
I remember the last time I saw Melissa Lynch. It was November 2010, and she was onstage in Latern Theater's Uncle Vanya, playing Sonya, a plain-Jane role at odds with her natural good looks – yet Lynch was marvelous. As I said in my City Paper review, she was "sympathetic and lovely," with "exactly the mix of sadness and radiance" the play needed. She seemed destined for great things.
Melissa Lynch
Sadly, it was not to be. Just over a month after Vanya closed, Lynch was killed in a car accident, leaving Philadelphia a poorer place, bereft of her talent and life force.
Yet she remains vividly present in the minds of our theater community who loved her. Director Daniel Student recalls Lynch as "a person who defied her type. She made people look twice at her. She was a beautiful woman, but she could play anything – she would lose herself in the character. Her work recognized and honored the capability of Philadelphia theater artists – women in particular."
The night Melissa died, many of her friends and colleagues gathered at Plays & Players. Among the participants was Madi Distefano, who a few years before had written a play called Sweetie Pie that had been produced by Azuka Theatre at Plays & Players, starring both her and Lynch.
The group paying tribute to Melissa that night was determined also to give her a more concrete legacy – one that would benefit and celebrate the Philadelphia theater world she loved. Together, they worked Lynch's family – and the Melissa Lynch Foundation, with it's annual Honey Bee Cabaret, was born. ("Melissa" is Greek for honey bee.)
On Sunday, June 22nd, this year's Cabaret will honor Melissa's memory, and the grand history of Plays & Players. The program, as Student explains, features "scenes, monologues and songs from the 103 year history of Plays & Players, as well as a sneak peak of what's coming next season." It's quite a variety, with material ranging from musical theater (The Fantasticks, Camelot) to Tennessee Williams' darkly comic Sweet Bird of Youth, which first graced the Plays & Players stage 50 years ago. (The range seems especially suitable given the protean nature of Lynch's own work.) The evening will also include the announcement that a new award, created by her family, will recognize the work of an emerging Philadelphia female theater artist.
Tickets can be bought for all or part of the evening. The top price, $60, is an "all access pass" to events on stage as well as a theater tour, after party, etc. At the lower end, $10 will let you join the gang at Quig's pub for a social evening with some of Melissa's many theater friends. "The three prices make it affordable to everybody," explains Student.
Sounds like just what Melissa would have wanted.
For more information, and to purchase tickets, call the Plays & Players box office at 866-811-4111, or visit the website: http://www.playsandplayers.org/season/honey-bee-cabaret/
