I'm going to show how to start and stop a timer in Standard Time® with an RFID tag reader. You're basically taking one of these RFID proximity cards, waving it in front of the reader to start the timer and then again to stop the timer. You can use this for employee time and attendance, punch-in punch-out, manufacturing, shop floor, anytime where you need to start and stop a timer with an RFID tag reader. You probably know that Standard Time receives input from barcodes, mag card readers, other devices. This card has no magnetic strip. This proximity card works by receiving radio frequency energy from the reader, there's a transponder chip inside here. When it gets close enough it powers up the chip, transmits the ID into the reader and then into the software.
Let's switch over to Standard Time to see how to configure the software to start and stop a timer with an RFID tag reader.
We're going to click on the Timerlog tab first, you see these six tabs along the top. Click timelog and press the F4 key and you'll notice the barcode window comes up. Don't worry about that, this window is also intended for multiple devices including barcode, mag card readers, RFID and other devices. Then click the barcode prefixes button, plus symbol, you can then wave the proximity card or tag over the reader and that will read the ID into the name field. You can give it a description if you like but you definitely have to fill in the fields below. We have it give it a user and then we either have to give it a project and category or a task. Let's pick a task and that automatically fills in the project. Click OK. Now you can wave the RFID tag over the reader and that starts the timer. You see the listing here with the user name, the project that's currently running, there's a task running and this is when the timer started. This listing will stay here for about 60 seconds and then it will drop off the list. During that 60 seconds, if the RFID tag is waved over the reader nothing will happen. The timer continues to run and you can see a record in the back ground in the timelog indicating that the timer has started. This timer will run, the user is off doing their work and when they come back they would scan again to stop the timer. So you scan once to start, scan again to stop.
I've stopped the timer on that previous scan and added some additional RFID tags. Let's click the barcode prefixes button and you can see some of these other ID's that I have added. As I click through these you see different users and projects. You must choose a user and a project and category or a task. Some of these you see project and category and others you see a project and task. Without these fields the timer cannot start. Let's click OK and I'll scan some of those. See them show up on the list and now three different timers are running for three different users. Which you see in the timelog, you see the project, you see the user, category and tasks. Multiple timers can run, one for each user. And users are typically assigned to a proximity card or tag so they would walk up, scan to start. Do their work and scan again to stop. That's all there is to it, hope it works for you!
This video is about how to use a mag card reader to start and stop a timer in Standard Time®. Taking a card like this, swiping once to start the timer, swiping again later to stop the timer. This is not about how to connect one of these to your computer, you'll have to do that. I've got three cards here that I've programmed. You can pick these blank cards on the web, program them yourself or use any existing employee badge or card. Any format works but I recommend not using credit cards. Because they will have the credit card number and expiration date imbedded in them. This is used for employee time and attendance; punch in punch out, clock in clock out, assembly line-manufacturing. Any time you need to take a card like this swipe once to start the timer swipe again to stop the timer. Let's go ahead and configure Standard Time to accept mag card reader input.
Consider starting with Microsoft Word. You can scan each of your cards and see the internal encoding on those cards. You will see that each one starts with a percent symbol and ends with a question mark. But you should be able to pick out the actual employee names within these records. And that's all we really need; any employee badge or card will work, again don't use credit cards. Let's switch over to Standard Time and see how to configure it to accept these cards.
First thing we'll do in Standard Time is click the TimeLog tab and press the F4 key to open up the barcode window. The first thing you're probably asking is wait barcode, no I'm using mag card reader. Well, bear with me everything will make sense here in a minute. Let's start by clicking the barcode prefixes button and then go to the Tools menu and choose New Barcode Prefix. Over here in the name field we will paste in the employee name you saw from Word. You can then go down here and choose the actual Standard Time user that will map to this card. The next thing you'll need to do is either choose a project and a category or a task. This is default information that we need to start the timer. So I've chosen a project, I choose a task. Now I set up everything I need to do so that Standard Time will automatically start the timer when I swipe this card. Click OK, grab a card and swipe. The timer has started, you can see that over in the TimeLog tab and you also see it listed here. This listing will stay for about 60 seconds. If the user swipes multiple times it's OK the timer will remain running and after 60 seconds you'll see this listing go away. Presumably the user is off doing their work, they come back, they swipe again and that will stop the timer. This is intended to start the timer and stop the timer for each swipe.
Enough time has elapsed to allow that last swipe to drop off the list. During that time I went into the barcode prefixes window and set up the other cards. You can see that I took the text that I got from Word and assigned a user, a project, task and some cases a category. It's very important you do that; you have to associate this card with a Standard Time user. You also have to tell it which project and task or category to use to start the timer. If you don't provide that information then Standard Time cannot start the timer. Now that I've got these set up I can click OK and swipe. You can see that the timer has started. You look back in the TimeLog you see the records there and you see these in the list. They remain for about 60 seconds even though the timer remains running. So the user or employee can go off, do their work and come back later and swipe again to stop the timer. Swipe once to start, that will use the project and tasks that you've chosen. And you come back later and swipe it again to stop. Hope that helps.
Using Standard Time® for manufacturing time tracking? Now you can connect multiple barcode scanners to a single computer. Go ahead and connect twenty barcode scanners to a PC and use them to track manufacturing, packaging, and shipping time. All those hours go into a single database where you can instantly see who is scanning, and how much time they have spent today, this week, or this month.
Watch the video to learn more about multiple barcode scanners on a single computer.
This video is about using multiple barcode scanners to connect to a single PC and track time within Standard Time®; for manufacturing or other office purposes. It's not about how to connect a barcode scanner to a PC. You will have to have these connected if you want to track time in Standard Time for multiple users on a single PC. So consider this more of an advanced video that discusses the configuration of Standard Time and time tracking there. Let's get started.
I have switched back to my screen and I have the TimeLog tab selected. Go ahead and press F4 to bring up the barcode window. You're probably used to barcode scanning where you would scan things like the category, user name, project, the timer starts you look back in the time log tab and you can see that record. Then scan stop to stop the timer, you can see the timer is no longer running. When you use multiple barcode scanners for a single PC things are a little different. In this case you have to program into each scanner a prefix. A prefix is a series of characters that you program in that are sent from the scanner every time you scan. Let's click the barcode prefixes button and you can see that I have set up three guns and I have programmed the prefixes into those guns. Mygun1, mygun2, mygun3; you can choose any text you'd like I just happened to choose those but you need to have unique text. So that the software knows which scanner is scanning at any given time. When they scan text they will emit this series of characters every time. Every time you scan you will get the prefix that comes out. You've probably noticed that down below that there are some defaults that you can select. Whenever this prefix is scanned these defaults will be chosen. Let's say you have a gun that's associated with a certain user only; you don't want to have to scan that user because this gun is always for that user. Go ahead and select a user, same thing with project. If this gun is associated with a certain project you can program that in. Same with tasks or categories, all these prefixes can be set up with default values. In this case we have a gun that is set up with not enough default values to start the timer. We would have to wait for more information from the user. Let's click OK and go over, scan some text and see what happens.
I've scanned, you saw the prefix and the text go into the window up here. And in this case I scanned a user named Dan, it's waiting for some more information. I'm going to scan some more information with gun1; in this case the timer actually started because it had all the default information it needed. I'm going to scan with a different gun, you see that in the list, you also see that the timer started for that one too. For gun3 it's still waiting for some information, let's give it a category, then a project; now the timer has started. That is a way for you to set up prefixes that would be associated with scanners and be able to use multiple scanners on single PC. There is one thing to consider here, the end users should probably see or have line of sight to the video monitor that they are working from.


How Well Does Affiliate Marketing Pay?
While startups with mega-valuations and millions of dollars in venture capital may get all the attention, most startups are on much leaner budgets. In 2014, for example, 82 percent of U.S. startups were self-funded.
For the majority of these startups, then, drawing up an efficient, cost-effective budget is necessary for the company's survival. Below are 10 digital marketing strategies ideal for new companies that need to get in the red for the lowest cost possible.
Flex targeting on Facebook — which lets you target profiles on the social network that match two or more characteristics — is one of the most effective ways to significantly scale up your social media campaign without significantly scaling up your budget. Through this feature, you can target users who both frequently buy online and have a pet, or users with small children and have also purchased a minivan.
Typical remarketing involves simply replaying ads on the same platforms consumers already saw them on. So if a potential customer clicked on your Google AdWords ad but didn't convert, you would continue to serve them Google AdWords on the same platform (ideally, with a different ad each time).
Cross-channel remarketing adds a layer of sophistication by showing ads to users on additional platforms from the one they originally viewed them on. So if a potential customer clicks on your AdWords ad and doesn't convert, you can show ads to that same person on Facebook. The biggest advantage of this tactic is it allows you to combine the power of demand-driven platforms such as Google and Bing with the power of behavior-based platforms such as Facebook. It also makes your brand appear influential.
You no longer need an Instagram profile or account to run ads on Instagram, which are managed via Facebook. What's more, clicks on Instagram ads can lead directly to landing pages or website URLs without filtering through an Instagram profile. And because facebook has over 600 targeting options — and, again, since Instagram ads run via Facebook — you can target specific groups that perfectly fit your company's profile.
Mobile ads cost less than desktop or tablet ads so to get more bang for your buck, consider focusing primarily on mobile campaigns. Particularly on Google and Facebook, it's possible to considerably stretch your budget by setting up mobile campaigns and allocating the majority of your marketing funds to ads that run on smartphones with full browsers.
Facebook lead ads allow you to provide users with more information about your service without them having to leave the social network. If you are selling a product, you can also use lead ads to host newsletter sign-ups, create a VIP mailing lists or offer discounts and deals.
Too many startups don't track conversions, which makes it extremely difficult to scale up results. Without knowing what works, deciding where to allocate your budget is a guessing game. One solution? Google Analytics' Smart Goals solve that problem by automatically creating buying personas from anonymously collected data. Google then decides how much of your traffic was high quality traffic, i.e. traffic that consists of people who are likely to purchase your product or service. You can import your smart goals into Google Adwords. The trick is to use this data for CPA (cost per acquisition) bidding. That way, Google automatically shows your ads to people who are more likely to buy without exceeding the maximum you are willing to pay.
Most advertisers create remarketing their lists in Google AdWords, but that may be the wrong approach. For more precise results, consider creating your remarketing lists in Google Analytics and then importing them into AdWords. Another tip: If you install the Facebook pixel, you can create custom audiences on Facebook and then retarget this audience with video ads.
Google AdWords display network campaigns are not the most popular choice for many startups — but they should be. The trick is to only show ads on specific websites, also known as placements, that have been selected with a particular customer profile in mind. AdWords allows for the manual selection of placements, which turns display campaigns into laser-targeted ads.
Bids are one of the biggest factors that influence how high the cost per click rate is on Google AdWords. Instead of merely setting up default bids or letting Google choose the bids for you, make your campaign more competitive by using bid modifiers.
Bid modifiers are percentages that advertisers can set up to increase or decrease their bid depending on metrics such location, what device the ad will play on etc. For instance, you can increase bids for ads served in New York City and San Francisco, and decrease bids for ads watched on mobile devices.
As Yahoo's reputation continues to slide, Bing search campaigns are not a popular choice for startups. That's a mistake. First of all, if you aren't advertising on Bing, you are missing out on 30 percent of US searchers. Bing powers web search on Apple's Siri, Kindle Fire, Amazon Fire Phone, Xbox and Twitter, among other platforms. Additionally, the cost per click is typically lower on Bing vs. Google AdWords.
Unsure which strategy will work best for you? New to internet marketing as a whole? If your answer is yes to either question or if you would like help getting started. I would suggest getting help from my friends at Wealthy Affiliate.You can see my review of Wealthy Affiliate HERE.

Q: TFS Build 2012 Definition file paths If I include a script in version control in my build definition arguments ($/mypath/myfile.ps1) does the build process automatically get the latest version of that file OR do I have to explicitly pull that file down myself in Source Settings?
It looks like sometimes I have to do manually and sometimes the build knows the file is in Version control and pulls down for me.
I am confused as to when I have to pull files down explicitly and when I don't have to. :|

A: On the Source Settings tab, you have to specify the version-control folders that contain the files that your build process requires in the Working folders table, which means you need to specify the folder include myfile.ps1 file on the Source Settings tab.
Then when you queue build, if you don't specify the version on Process tab, TFS will get the latest version of the folders specified on Source Settings tab:

Article 2 Inquests – What You Need To Know
You are here: Home / 2019 / June / 26 / Article 2 Inquests – What You Need To Know
26th June 2019 by Healys
The death of a loved one is probably the most traumatic, harrowing experience any human being will experience in their lifetime. Not only is there a period of unimaginable grief, suffering and uncontrollable feelings of sadness and loss to go through, but in addition there are a wealth of practicalities that have to be dealt with – a funeral to be arranged, finances to be sorted out, fellow grieving relatives who need supporting and potentially, sales of property and effects to be dealt with.
On top of that, depending on the circumstances in which the deceased passed away, there may also be the need for the bereaved to attend a Coroner's Inquest into the death of their loved one.
In our article, 'What Happens at an Inquest?', we attempted to answer a number of questions that we are often asked concerning the nature of an Inquest: when one is needed, what happens at the Inquest and what will be required of any family members should they be required to attend the Coroner's court as a witness.
As that article answers many of the basic questions that might be raised by the deceased's relatives about the Inquest procedure, it is sufficient to re-state here, that an Inquest will be called when death occurs in any of the following circumstances:
The cause of death is unknown
In the case of an unnatural or violent death
Where it has not been possible to identify the deceased person
Death took place in custody i.e. a prisoner being held in jail
There is no medical certificate
The purpose of the Inquest is to find answers as to:
Who the deceased person was
When they died
Where they died
How the deceased died
This article focuses on the type of Inquest that is known as an 'enhanced Inquest'. This form of Inquest is more formally known as an Article 2 Inquest.
Article 2 Inquests
Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights provides that:
Everyone's right to life shall be protected by law.
The Article further provides that every person has a right:
Not to be unlawfully killed by the state
For the state's systems to be designed so that they protect life, including through the criminal law
For the state to investigate suspicious deaths
In certain circumstances to require the state to take reasonable steps to prevent the loss of life
This can be further described as meaning that member states have the following duties:
A negative duty to refrain from taking life
A positive duty to take the appropriate steps to safeguard a person's life
'For the state to investigate a person's death'
This duty is reflected in the implementation of the Article 2 Inquest process, which carries an enhanced duty to carry out a:
'thorough, independent and effective investigation into a death.'
The Article 2 Inquest process will automatically be initiated in the case of a death in state custody.
Death in state custody
If someone dies in police custody, in prison or for further example in an immigration centre, they will be considered to have died whilst in state custody and as such an enhanced Inquest under Article 2 will be required to investigate the death.
Death in an NHS Hospital
What about someone who dies in an NHS (state) hospital as a result of medical negligence?
Deaths as a result of medical negligence in a state hospital, do not automatically trigger the Article 2 process. Certainly the 'negative duty' to refrain from taking life, is not applicable in the case of a death resulting from medical negligence.
However, the 'positive duty' imposes the following obligations:
'To provide an effective regulatory framework for the protection of people's lives generally' – in a healthcare setting this requires suitable systems of working to be in place. Hospitals are expected to possess and maintain high professional standards. This extends to ensuring that properly qualified staff are employed and that they carry out their duties competently, at all times.
To take reasonable steps to protect the life of a specific individual where state authorities know that there is a risk to that person's life either as a result of the person committing suicide or where that person may be at risk of violent death (such as may be the case of a patient in a specialist mental health clinic or hospital).
How does an Article 2 Inquest differ from a non-Article 2 Inquest?
All Inquests whether they are Article 2 or non-Article 2 Inquests are required to be 'effective', investigations. This means that in all cases, the Coroner must give proper consideration to the circumstances of that death. All Inquests therefore need to be sufficiently thorough.
However, due to the particular circumstances of a death where it is deemed that an Article 2 Inquest is required, an enhanced level of scrutiny has to be applied.
As a result, Article 2 Inquests are different from non- Article 2 Inquests in the following ways:
They involve a detailed and transparent investigation, with the bereaved family playing a more prominent part during an Article 2 Inquest.
They are likely to involve a Jury.
They are likely to last longer than non-Article 2 Inquests.
Whilst the Coroner's decision (known as a conclusion) in a non-Article 2 Inquest is in short form i.e. a brief decision is given, the Article 2 Inquest may conclude with a 'narrative conclusion' given by the Jury. This is often a much-expanded conclusion compared to the short form type that is given in a non-article 2 Inquest.
If evidence is revealed during the course of the Inquest that gives rise to 'a concern that circumstances creating a risk of other deaths will occur, or continue to exist in the future,' then if the Coroner deems it necessary for action to be taken, in accordance with Paragraph 7 of Schedule 5 of the Coroner and Justice Act 2009, the Coroner is under a duty to issue a Coroner's Regulation 28 Report to the body or organisation whose failing have been criticised in the Jury's conclusion.
The Regulation 28 Report outlines the Coroner's concerns and contains a request that action be taken. The body to whom the report is addressed is under a duty to provide a response detailing the actions that will be taken to reassure the Coroner that all necessary steps will be taken to prevent future deaths happening in the circumstances that gave rise to the need for the current Article 2 Inquest.
Healys solicitors were involved in a case where they acted on behalf of the family of Mrs Joan Blaber, a vulnerable elderly patient, whose death occurred after she had been admitted to Royal Sussex County Hospital in 2017. Healys Medical Negligence claims partner, Jonathan Austen-Jones had conduct of the case.
Mrs Blaber suffered a minor stroke which led to her being admitted to the hospital. At the time of the incident that led to her death, she was making good progress in her recovery from the stroke. Indeed, she was due to be discharged within a matter of days, when she ingested floor cleaner which had somehow been put into a water jug that had been left on her bedside cabinet. The water was used to dilute some squash by a nurse. The diluted squash was then drunk by Mrs Blaber to assist her in swallowing her medication.
Joan died six days later of respiratory failure as a result of chemical pneumonitis, which had been caused by the ingestion of the floor cleaner.
An Article 2 Inquest was held before a Jury. After hearing all the evidence, the Jury returned a narrative conclusion, that:
There was widespread confusion surrounding the jug system that was in place and that jugs were being misused.
Understanding and implementation of cleaning procedures were inconsistent and inadequate amongst agency and the NHS Trust cleaning staff.
Management failed to direct and monitor staff.
After the Jury had delivered its conclusion the Senior Coroner for Brighton and Hove, Miss Veronica Hamilton-Deeley criticised the Trust for 'serious failings.'
A significant piece of evidence that emerged during the Inquest, was that there had been a previous similar incident at the same hospital in 2016. The Coroner was highly critical of the fact that lessons had not been learned from that previous incident.
As a result, the Coroner stated that she would be writing to the Brighton and Sussex NHS Trust in the form of a Regulation 28 report, which was to set out the steps she believed should be taken to prevent any future similar deaths from occurring in this manner in the future.
Representation at Article 2 Inquests
The procedures involved both before, during and after Article 2 Inquests are of a complex nature. For a bereaved family, that is still trying to come to terms with the death of their loved one, having to become involved in this detailed legal process can be a truly daunting prospect. At Healys we have considerable and proven experience of representing families during these difficult times.
We understand this highly technical area of law and are able to:
Advise you about the type of funding that may be available to you to help pay for legal representation at the Inquest, including legal expenses insurance and Legal Aid.
Make submissions on your behalf as to why an Article 2 Inquest is appropriate (if the status of the Inquest has not yet been confirmed).
Represent you at the Inquest and provide any family members who are required to give evidence at the Inquest, with all the support and legal assistance that will prepare them to undertake this duty.
Help you bring a claim for damages if the Inquest concludes that there were negligent failings in terms of the care and treatment provided and which brought about the death of your loved one.
Instructing one of Healys' experts in the field of Inquest Law, will ensure that you are represented all the way through the process and give you one less thing to worry about.

Heinrich Lifts Hold On Air Force Secretary Nominee
Operationally Responsive Space Program to Continue
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) is lifting his hold on Secretary of the Air Force nominee Deborah Lee James. The New Mexico Senator blocked the confirmation process last week until questions were answered regarding planned cuts to the Operationally Responsive Space (ORS) program based at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque. ORS was set up in May 2007 to develop and field low-cost satellites that deliver tangible operational results to the military.
The announcement to release his hold comes after Senator Heinrich received confirmation that Air Force leadership agreed to continue the ORS program in fiscal year 2014. Read the letter from the Air Force.
Last year, the Air Force proposed cancelling ORS, but congress rejected the proposal. Despite a congressional mandate to maintain an ORS office in the fiscal year 2013 National Defense Authorization Act (Public Law 112-239), the Air Force again proposed terminating the program this year. In September 2013, the Air Force initiated a de facto shut down of the ORS program as personnel at the office began receiving notices of termination.
"Congress has been very clear in rejecting the proposed termination of this important program. The purpose of my hold was to ensure the Air Force followed the law and allow for the continuation of the ORS program and the work they are doing for our national security," said Sen. Heinrich. "ORS will ultimately save the Air Force and taxpayers money. In a time of serious fiscal constraints, it is critical that we continue to look for ways to reduce costs over time by making marginal investments in programs that deliver tangible benefits to the military. I appreciate the Air Force's cooperation and reconsideration, and I look forward to continue our work together to ensure the ORS program remains intact."
Senator Heinrich placed the hold on the Air Force Secretary nominee on September 25, 2013. He then met with Acting Secretary of the Air Force, Eric Fanning, on September 26. On September 27, the Air Force provided official notification that it would:
Maintain the ORS office, separate from the Space Missile Systems Center (SMC) organizations, in place at least through Fiscal Year 2014.
Maintain the current ORS staff, including contractors, for on-going ORS projects and activities.
Determine a mission and payload for the ORS-2 satellite, which had been on hold pending a decision from Air Force leadership.
Complete the "strategic plan" required by Public Law, 112-239.
Senator Heinrich described Ms. James as a well-qualified nominee and looks forward to supporting her. "I'm very impressed with her as a nominee, and I'm pleased we were able to reach an agreement. Ms. James was very straight with me during the whole process and I have no reservations supporting her nomination," said Sen. Heinrich.
Background: The John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (Public Law 109-364) established the ORS office to respond to the needs of the joint force commander and to build an enabling infrastructure to support the rapid deployment of space capabilities at lower costs.
Citing command structure concerns, the Air Force proposed terminating the low-cost ORS mission in fiscal years 2013 and 2014. In both years, congressional defense committees in the House of Representatives and the Senate rejected the proposed termination and congress appropriated $105M for ORS in fiscal year 2013. PL 112-239 sought to alleviate command structure concerns by establishing a new joint program office with the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) but instructed that the office remain separate from SMC. Congressional defense committees have made the following determinations:
FY13, National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 4310), Public Law 112-239:"There is within the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center of the Department of Defense a joint program office known as the Operationally Responsive Space Program Office (in this section referred to as the `Office'). The facilities of the Office may not be co-located with the headquarters facilities of the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center." Furthermore, the Conference Report required a report "not later than 90 days after the date of enactment of this Act, that discusses how the existing and future technologies and operational systems developed in the ORS program are to be integrated into service acquisition programs to meet combatant command requirements." ?
FY14 National Defense Authorization Act (S. 1197) Senate Armed Services Committee Report (S. Rept. 113-44): "Congress awaits the reports required from the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 on how the Department of Defense (DoD) will implement the legislation… the Committee Report notes that "most if not all the concepts championed by the ORS office such as low cost launch, disaggregation, and common bus structures are now being embraced by DoD in times of fiscal constraint."
FY14 Senate Defense Appropriations (S. 1429): "The Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2013, provided $105,000,000 for continuation of the Operationally Responsive Space program, in accordance with the Fiscal Year 2013 National Defense Authorization Act [NDAA]." With these funds the "Air Force proposed to acquire a low-cost weather satellite, which would leverage prior investments in bus and sensor programs, which the Committee supported." With that said, "this plan has not been approved by the Department of Defense despite the identification of a key requirements gap in weather data collection." Further, the "failure to provide a path forward for the Operationally Responsive Space program stands in stark contrasts to the congressional rejection of the fiscal year 2013 proposal to terminate the program."

Canada acknowledges 'colonial genocide', but will it set a precedent in the Commonwealth?
By Alan Weedon

For centuries, First Nations peoples have been seeking the truth about colonisation.
Canada acknowledged it has had a continuous intention to "destroy Indigenous peoples"
It noted that current genocide definitions fail to incorporate Indigenous perspectives
The Commonwealth and other bodies are flawed when asked to correct colonial genocide
In the decades after the first contact with Indigenous peoples, many history books told a story of friendly conquest, neglecting to broach the uncomfortable truths of massacres and cultural destruction that allowed Europeans to establish colonies in almost all corners of the globe.
It was only in the latter part of the 20th century that many non-indigenous academics, governments, and invested citizens sought to work alongside Indigenous peoples to challenge the inherited stories of settlement.
Last month, Canada became the latest country to admit to "race-based genocide" against its Indigenous peoples.
External Link: Twitter: Trudau acknowledges genocide
The acknowledgement was made in a wide-ranging report of a three-year national inquiry into more than 4,000 missing and murdered Canadian Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA (two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex and asexual people), otherwise known as the MMIWG report.
Two-spirit is a term that describes Canadian Indigenous people who "assume cross- or multiple-gender roles, attributes, dress and attitudes for personal, spiritual, cultural, ceremonial or social reasons".
In a supplementary report explaining its rationale for the genocide ruling, MMIWG commissioners noted Canada had "displayed a continuous policy … to destroy Indigenous peoples physically, biologically, and as social units".
Experts say Canada's decision is significant and may reverberate across the Commonwealth's settler-colonial states, including Australia and New Zealand, where Indigenous peoples are still subject to considerable socio-economic disadvantages when compared to non-Indigenous peers.
The theme for this week's NAIDOC celebrations, 'Voice, Treaty, Truth' is also a reminder of the fact that Australia is the only Commonwealth country to not have a formal treaty with its Indigenous peoples, though the Northern Territory and Victoria are pursuing regional treaties.
While the concrete outcomes of Canada's report are yet to be seen, it presents governments of all stripes — including Australia's — with a great body of evidence showing the impacts of colonisation on Indigenous peoples and could set a new precedent for how Indigenous communities in the Commonwealth could pursue truth and justice at home.
Genocide includes 'lethal and non-lethal acts'

The United Nations Genocide Convention defines the crime as any "committed intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group", through killing, grievous bodily harm, the manipulation of the group's living conditions, restrictions on births, or the forcible transfer of children from one group to another.
Marking Aboriginal massacres
In 1828, the bodies of about 30 Aboriginal men were thrown from a cliff in Tasmania's far north west. The Cape Grim massacre is not officially commemorated, but some think it's time to mark the day.
But the Canadian report noted that the current definition fails "to incorporate Indigenous perspectives" and that genocide includes both "lethal and non-lethal acts".
In Australia, the 20th century brought with it the suffering of the Stolen Generations, where Indigenous children were taken from their parents and raised in state-run institutions or Mission Schools, while Canada had the Sixties Scoop, which saw First Nations, Inuit and Métis children forcibly taken from their homes and adopted into non-Indigenous homes.
Kutcha Edwards, a Mutti Mutti musician and host of 3CR Radio's Beyond the Bars, told the ABC that he became a child of the Stolen Generations simply because he was "born black in this country".
"The irony is that I was not born a citizen of this place," he said.
"In 1967, the magic wand [full rights] was then bestowed upon Aboriginal people to make us constituents of the Crown — we were sovereign people prior to that.
"Because of this magic wand, I was forcibly taken from my mother and father and taken to a children's home in Melbourne's eastern suburbs."
'Genocide in Australia is ongoing'

Jill Gallagher AO, a Gunditjmara woman from western Victoria and the Victorian Treaty Advancement Commissioner, told the ABC genocide against Indigenous Australians had cast a long shadow over her own family.
A NAIDOC week primer
Here's what you need to know about Australia's national celebration of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.
"We've been looking at a facility to look after my 93-year-old mother and she lived through the Mission School Era," she said.
"She said to me, 'Jill, don't tell them that I'm Aboriginal'."
Ms Gallagher added that the disparity between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in the rates of homelessness, unemployment, children in out-of-home care, and the ability to practise their culture, even today, exemplified indirect genocide.
She added that Indigenous Australians are the most incarcerated people per capita in the world.

The latest Australian data on out-of-home care showed that Indigenous children in 2017 were 10 times more likely to be taken away from their families than non-Indigenous children, prompting Australia's first Aboriginal children's commissioner, Andrew Jackomos, to call the situation a "national disaster".
Jack Latimore, a Birpai writer and editor for National Indigenous Television (NITV) News, told the ABC that many people with power in Australia still failed to see the indirect forms of genocide.
"Academics of a certain age and socio-economic bracket do not have a conception of genocide being a nuanced thing — it's very much a body count," Mr Latimore said.
"Genocide or cultural genocide in Australia is ongoing and it's part of the colonial project."
Will Canada's report prompt bids for justice abroad?

Jennifer Balint, an associate professor specialising in genocide at the University of Melbourne, told the ABC that obtaining justice for past or continuing genocide in any legal system was "extremely exhausting with very limited success".
She said prosecuting charges of genocide involved proving "bad intent" — as in the case of Rwanda, and Jews during World War II — whereas history had shown that genocide also happened under "good intent" such as colonial policies of cultural assimilation.
In the Commonwealth, there has only been one instance where justice has been delivered to victims of colonial violence — in 2012, surviving Kenyan torture victims took on the British Government and won compensation.

Both Australia and Canada are in breach of a number of domestic and international human rights statues and agreements, including the Commonwealth Charter, where member states must ensure "equality and respect for the protection and promotion of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights" of all citizens.
When asked by the ABC if Canada's report would prompt justice claims within the Commonwealth, Secretary-General Patricia Scotland said all Commonwealth members were "encouraged to take practical action" regarding the "promotion and protection of the human rights of Indigenous peoples".
While there is no reference to colonisation or decolonisation in the Commonwealth Charter, the United Nations has pressed member states to continue decolonisation efforts — a call first made in 1960.
Within international law, Ms Balint explained that the MMIWG report's findings may provide a framework for similar initiatives, as they document the "testimonies of what the destruction was".
External Link: MMIWG Chief Commissioner Marion Buller outlines the report's 231 calls for justice.
"Being attentive to different ways in which individuals and communities are destroyed — and how they understand that destruction — that's what makes this report so important," she said.
Whose responsibility?
Your country has probably done some very bad things. Perhaps recently; perhaps before you or even your parents were born. Intuitively most people think so, but what kind of duty is that and what does it require from you as a citizen or subject?
But for First Nations peoples looking at the Canadian decision from abroad, such as Mutti Mutti musician Mr Edwards, the move illustrates just how much catch-up other Commonwealth countries still have to do.
"When a government acknowledges that they have practised cultural genocide, you have to ask yourself, why there, and not here?"
The spokesperson for the chief commissioner of the MMIWG report, Marion Buller, said Ms Buller was not able to comment as the commission's office was dissolved days after the ABC's request.
The Australian Attorney-General did not respond to the ABC's requests by deadline.

Consistently, media covering President Obama's historic 2-day visit to Cuba has focused on the need for Cuba to clean up its human rights record if it truly wants to normalize relations with the U.S. While Cuba may have some shortcomings when it comes to its human rights record, the U.S. should be hesitant in its condemnation of others for abuses when the U.S. commits and perpetuates serious abuses at home (and abroad).

Home Study Books Explaining Technical Change
Explaining Technical Change – A Case Study in the Philosophy of Science
Jon Elster
CUP Archive
Capitalism, economic history, history of economic thought, Innovation, philosophy of economics
Technical change, defined as the manufacture and modification of tools, is generally thought to have played an important role in the evolution of intelligent life on earth, comparable to that of language. In this volume, first published in 1983, Jon Elster approaches the study of technical change from an epistemological perspective. He first sets out the main methods of scientific explanation and then applies those methods to some of the central theories of technical change. In particular, Elster considers neoclassical, evolutionary, and Marxist theories, whilst also devoting a chapter to Joseph Schumpeter's influential theory.
Technical change is one of the most relevant economic phenomena and occupies an eminent role in both orthodox and heterodox economic thought. In this book, Jon Elster gives an overview of the most prominent theories to explain technical change, namely neoclassical, Schumpeterian, evolutionary and Marxist theories and dissects their specific explanation attempt from the perspective of the philosophy of science. Through this perspective, the reader is able appreciate the specific type of causal explanation that is put forward - and can therefore gauge its relative strengths and weaknesses.
Comment from our editors:
Irrespective of its age, Jon Elster's forgotten classic is a great and accessible attempt to formalize and unify the different theories of technical change and a must-read for anybody interested in these kinds of phenomena. Being one of the founding fathers of Analytical Marxism, Elster is very explicit in his reconstruction of the premises of the theories he discusses. This renders the book also a great reference book to be read alongside the often opaque and convoluted canonical texts on technical change.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality in the United States. The five-year survival rate is only 18.6 percent, according to the American Lung Association1, lower than that for many other types of cancer. For locally advanced, inoperable lung cancer, radiation therapy, known as radiotherapy, combined with chemotherapy is the treatment of choice. Research efforts have explored whether advanced imaging techniques can help guide radiotherapy, making it more precise, and thus more effective, by identifying the location of tumors more accurately.
Currently, radiotherapy treatment for lung cancer is planned using computed tomography (CT) scans of patients, which measures their breathing patterns. On these images, tumors can be hard to spot because of the way the lungs move during respiration.
A study published in May 2018 in Radiotherapy and Oncology by physicists from the Institute of Cancer Research, London and the Royal Marsden National Health Service Foundation Trust demonstrates a new way to use MRI, a method the authors have dubbed super-resolution T2-weighted four-dimensional (4D) MRI.3 This technique combines traditional, two-dimensional MRI images to create super-resolution videos that show the lungs expanding and contracting. The hope is that this will allow clinicians to deliver more precise, and thus effective, radiotherapy for patients with diseases like lung cancer because it will allow them to predict the location of a tumor more effectively, even as the lungs move.
The technique yields images of the lungs that are five times more detailed than other types of MRI methods. Getting this level of detail can often involve long scan times that are uncomfortable for patients, but the new technique also allows physicians to obtain the images quickly.
In the study, the authors scanned eight healthy volunteers using standard T2-weighted MRI methods, producing images in both the sagittal and axial planes. Image slices were then sorted slice by slice and stitched together by a computer, creating accurate, high-resolution videos of the study subjects breathing in and out.
The super-resolution video images that resulted showed fewer artifacts or visual errors that result from missing data and can obscure important details, compared to other techniques. Yet the motion of the lungs that was easily visualized at low resolution was retained in the super-resolution version of the images.
This new technique can also produce detailed images of "slices" of the body at any time or position, by combining multiple MRIs of the body from different orientations.
Accurately pinpointing the location of tumors in lung cancer patients can increase the efficacy of radiotherapy by aiding oncologists in applying it more precisely. For radiotherapy systems that image and treat tumors simultaneously, the ability to visualize tumors in moving lungs with this level of high resolution is key to their successful use. And as tumors shrink during the course of radiotherapy treatment, super-resolution T2-weighted 4D MRI may be able to provide up-to-date, accurate images that allow for the continued precise targeting of radiotherapy to areas of the tumor.
There are still more steps researchers must take before this new technique reaches the clinic. This study looked at healthy subjects, so studies are needed to validate the method's usability with lung cancer patients.

Lamenting a Somewhat Stolen 'Kiss': 365 Prince Songs in a Year
Shinko Music, Getty Images
To celebrate the incredibly prolific, influential and diverse body of work left behind by Prince, we will be exploring a different song of his each day for an entire year with the series 365 Prince Songs in a Year.
There's at least one person out there who doesn't get happy every time he randomly stumbles upon a radio station playing Prince's 1986 smash "Kiss."
"Well, to be honest, every time I hear it – on the radio, in a movie, when Tom Jones covers it – I think about how much money I didn't make, you know?" explains Revolution bassist Brownmark, who says he was cheated out of a promised co-writing credit on the song. "It's a bummer."
In April of 1985, Brownmark was working with his protege group Mazarati on their self-titled debut album, which would eventually spawn the hit "100 MPH." While the record would be released on Prince's Paisley Park label,"Mazarati was 100 percent my group. A lot of people think it was Prince's group – never was, it was mine," Brownmark says. "I kept them hidden from Prince because my relationship with him was very fragmented at that time. His focus was changing. It went from Dez (Dickerson) to me for half a second. Then, when Wendy came along, it went to Wendy and Lisa. So, I started to wonder, with the bass disappearing in some of his music (most notably in "When Doves Cry"), was he phasing me out? Or does he know I'm up to something, and he's preparing himself for my departure? I kind of had a feeling it was one of the two, because I was getting ready to follow my own path."
The "Kiss" saga began when Prince handed Brownmark a tape of a brief demo of an early version of the song, and said he wanted him to work on it for inclusion on the Mazarati album. There was much work to be done. "It was just an acoustic guitar with his voice," Brownmark confirms. "He wasn't singing in his high falsetto, but just in a natural voice. It sounded like a folk song."
Brownmark says he drastically re-worked the song in order to make it fit alongside the other album tracks. "We sang it the same, in more of a tenor voice, but we totally flipped it. I put the drum beat, with the gated reverbs. Everything you hear now, he kept it the exact same way, except he added his guitar and the voice."
The changes worked great – perhaps too well. "I think what happened is, that's the reason Prince took it, he wanted to add a few little variances, some dynamics – and he ended up putting his voice on it, and keeping it. In fact, originally he had done that guitar solo for Mazarati's version."
Hear Mazarati's Version of "Kiss"
Brownmark understood when Prince took the newly re-arranged song back, but he expected his fair share of the credit and rewards. "From a financial standpoint, I knew that I would benefit more from it being with Mazarati – if it hit. But having a co-write on a Prince record? That would be phenomenal. So, that outweighed everything. He kept saying to me, 'We, we, we …. Just think, you put this on [Prince and the Revolution's 1986 album Parade], and we will have a hit.' It was always 'we,' until it came out, and my name wasn't anywhere on it. I never did get royalties on that. That's the way it is though, man. Showbiz."
Released in February of 1986 – and accompanied by one of the best music videos Prince ever made – "Kiss" became a massive hit around the globe, spending two weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. A highly inventive re-working of the song by Art of Noise and Tom Jones sent the song back to the top of the charts two years later.

Naturally, all this popularity also meant that "Kiss" instantly become a permanent staple of Prince's live shows. The problem was, the song's extremely spare, bass-less arrangement relies on a lot of empty space and a borderline-whispered falsetto of a lead vocal, so it wasn't a natural fit for the large venues and loud crowds Prince could fill.
"Back then, it was just a matter of [keyboardists] Matt [Fink] and Lisa really trying to recreate the underlying keyboard chop – because it wasn't really a keyboard. It was an acoustic guitar," Brownmark says. "I just took the original demo that Prince gave me, and added a Keypex gate, which we triggered it off the high hat - and that's where that unique sound came from. That was the hardest part, and the drive of the song. So, if we could get that down for live performances, then the rest was pretty easy."
Except ... they couldn't really get it down. "We had to do it with keyboards, they had to play it manually, and it didn't have the same effect," Brownmark adds. "That's why I never liked the way we did the song live: It was never the same. Plus, in Mazarati, a couple of the boys had a church background, which you can hear in the background vocals [that Prince left on the final version of the song]. The harmonies and things that we selected were very unique, and we couldn't translate that live, either."
If nothing else, it seems Brownmark can take some satisfaction in knowing the song never fully re-captured its original genius without his input. "Long after I was gone, Prince changed that up I don't know how many times," Brownmark remembers. "Last time I was at Paisley Park he said, 'I got a new version of "Kiss."' He's playing it on the loudspeakers, and he put a bass line in it, and I said, 'I don't like it; I like it the original way.' He said, 'I had to change it up a bit, to make it translate better.' And I said, 'Yeah – good luck with that.'"

CHEYENNE, Wyo. (KGWN) Today the Cheyenne Regional Medical Center and the Cheyenne Regional Heart and Vascular Institute hosted the 10th annual Wake up to Women's Heart Health Event.
The event was aimed at sharing ways women in the community can be more heart healthy as February is American Heart Month. A focus of today was what to do if you find yourself at the scene of someone having a heart attack and how to do hands-only CPR which will increase the chances of someone surviving a heart attack.
One speaker at the event was heart attack survivor Tracy Perko, an instructor at LCCC. She shared her story with the group and said that the paramedics told her she was having a fatal event. Her heart attack happened just a few days before her daughter's high school graduation last May. Perko had stents put in at CRMC to open up the clog that was causing her attack and she was able to attend her daughter's graduation ceremony.
Perko now eats a heart healthy diet and exercises regularly. She credits cardiac rehab for teaching her the importance of exercise after her heart attack.
The Wake up to Women's Heart Health Event took place at 1 p.m. at Laramie County Community College.

It pleased me that this weeks episode really went somewhere. Between Kim and JD deciding and the Turks baby being born, it felt like a big turning point in the show.
...wow. iTunes currently has a free preview of the musical episode, a Turk/JD number. Called "Guy Love." So, yeah.

Both the abortion/pizza conversation got me going as did Kelso's "And that sweater is gay" remark to Jack.
"My Charlie Brown Christmas"
The Scrubs cast lends their voices to a new version of the classic cartoon. Fantastic.
"I can't hang my shiny balls off of that!"
That was amazing.
This was a great episode because for the first time in awhile it felt like all of the main characters were doing something, as opposed to some of last season's episodes where someone like Kelso or Cox would just have a few jokes thrown in just to give their characters lines.
Great to see Cabbage back. Todd being obsessed with breast milk was probably too easy of a gag to pull.
I'm interested to see where they go with Kim, since I figured she wouldn't become a regular character or anything.
Anyway, I think next week is "His Story 4," from Kelso's perspective.
Although Todd being obsessed with breast feeding was obvious, I think that they had to do it. If not, he's not "The Todd". It's his character.
I'm interested in Elliot taking the new job. I like that they are kind of making her character a little less of a disaster.

According to my cable guide, the next two weeks they're repeating the first two parts of the Dr. Cox arc from last season. Doesn't look like we're getting any new episodes until January .

Having seen hospital staff obsess over name brand coffee (in this case, Tim Horton's) opening a kiosk in a hospital first hand, I enjoyed that subplot quite a bit.
To continue discussion (or continue talking to myself) until January 4th, what is everyone's overall favorite season?
I used to think Season 1 or 2 had it for being fresh and original, but after a recent re-viewing I love 3 the most. The crew FINALLY decided what they wanted with the J.D./Elliot relationship and I'm glad they made the right choice and went against the Ross/Rachel grain (which led to a great Friends reference by Janitor). Plus, it doesn't hurt that it has some of the best (and THE best) episodes, "My Screw-Up," "My Butterfly," the Michael J. Fox arc, and final three episodes, "My Fault," "My Self-Examination," and "My Best Friend's Wedding."
4 is probably the overall weakest, but in all 120 and whatever episodes I haven't seen a real extended run of dull.
Yeah, 3 is the strongest season in terms of consistent quality. Good season-long plotlines (the J.D./Elliot relationship, Turk/Carla getting married) mixed with great guest-star driven mini-arcs (Michael J. Fox and Brendan Frasier).
Season 3 was probably the strongest overall, but I tend to think that Season 2 was the funniest.
I really need to watch season 3 again. It's the season I've seen least of all the scrubs seasons so far. I bought it on DVD but leant it to a friend, who leant it to a friend and it hasn't been returned. It's been about 6 months now so I'm losing hope. I'll just have to get ahold of it again.
Youtube is an amazing source for catching up on old episode moments.

THREE MEDICAL MYSTERIES STUMP THE DOCTORS OF SACRED HEART IN AN HOMAGE TO "HOUSE" - ELIZABETH BANK'S ("THE 40-YEAR OLD VIRGIN") AND DAVE FOLEY ("THE STRIP") GUEST STAR - Dr.Cox (John C. McGinley) channels TV doctor 'House' to solve three mysteries including; why a man's skin is inexplicably orange, why a young woman, with no coronary issues has a failing heart and why Elliot (Sarah Chalke) is taking her anger towards Dr. Kelso (Ken Jenkins) out on Turk (Donald Faison). But the doctor may be missing the biggest clue of all when Carla (Judy Reyes) begins to show signs of postpartum depression. Meanwhile, J.D. (Zach Braff) tries to be the 'best boyfriend ever' so that Kim (Elizabeth Banks) won't take the job in St. Louis. Neil Flynn also stars. TV-14
This could be amazing...
I know the NBC preview has been wrong before, but I thought Kim said the job offer was in Washington.
Great stuff tonight. I loved Cox's shot at Dane Cook and Janitor's mural, especially. The "House" bits were neat. Plus, Keith and Lisa got hit in the head with a clipboard.
So when Kim comes back she'll be, what, 6 months pregnant? At least we won't be seeing another birth.

Shit...is it Thursday?
A few moments that made me chuckle, but I'm not really enjoying this season as much as previous ones. Elliott's storyline seems so contrived b/c they've already done the angle where she left the hospital and it failed after two episodes, while JDs relationship with Kim is just weak and forced.
A lot of people I know who watch the show still want JD and Elliot to end up together. Anyone else think there's a good possibility of it happening?
I don't think so. I remember an interview with Bill Lawrence saying after the third season that JD and Elliot were done. That doesn't mean he can't change his mind, but I doubt that will happen. There hasn't been anything between them for a few seasons now.
Yeah, I think Bill has been quoted as saying (though I've yet to find the source) that he didn't want to go the cliched sitcom route with JD and Elliot, and that the writing room was almost 50-50 about which way to go. And really, after 4 seasons of their admitting what a trainwreck of a couple they are, it wouldn't make much sense. Unless they pulled something out like how they had "matured" as doctors and people since their intern days.
For awhile I would've been okay with it, because I couldn't stand her season 4 boyfriend or Keith last season. But this season they've managed to make Keith likable without shoving him or their relationship down our throats, so if they stay together and the core cast remains a big happy family then I'll be fine with the show ending.
Um, Tacoma IS in Washington.
The preview said:
Meanwhile, J.D. (Zach Braff) tries to be the 'best boyfriend ever' so that Kim (Elizabeth Banks) won't take the job in St. Louis.
Well that's what I get for trying to post on a message before my first cup of coffee for the day. Sounds like I have something in common with the NBC promo dept.: We're asleep at the wheel.

I watched Scrubs during OC's commercial breaks and found it really difficult to turn back to Fox. Scrubs was really good. I liked how Sarah Chalke's character was all "why don't *I* get focused on some more?" and the guy who thought he was House was all "be quiet, this is my episode" in more words.
...wow.
Another preview of the musical episode, which airs January 18th.

LinkedIn IPO Price Values Company at Over $3B
LinkedIn Corp, the social site for business professionals, is hoping to cash in with investors eager to gobble up shares in social networking companies such as Facebook, with a public debut valuing the company at more than $3 billion.
LinkedIn Corp said on Monday it would offer 7.84 million shares in its initial public offering.
LinkedIn, which attracts professionals and job seekers with 100 million worldwide members, priced its IPO at between $32 and $35 a share. It is generating significant interest as one of the first social networking companies to start the process of being publicly traded -- ahead of the much-anticipated Facebook IPO.
Social media companies including Twitter, Groupon and Zynga have generated significant interest and are seeing multibillion dollar valuations of their shares trading on the secondary markets.
Last week, Renren Inc, one of the biggest social networking companies in China, made its trading debut after a successful IPO -- another indicator of investor interest in the hot social media companies space.
Renren's stock surged 28.6 percent in its May 4 debut.
LinkedIn is offering 4.8 million shares, and the rest will be sold by some of its stockholders.
Shares owned by co-founder and LinkedIn board Chairman Reid Hoffman, who is among those stockholders selling shares in the IPO, would represent about 21.7 percent of voting power after the offering.
Other key stakeholders offering shares include Goldman Sachs, McGraw-Hill Companies Inc and Bain Capital Venture Integral Investors LLC.
Major investors Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners and Bessemer Venture Partners, which together own about two-fifths of the company, will not be participating in the IPO.
In January, LinkedIn had filed with U.S. regulators for an IPO to raise up to $175 million.
The company expects to receive net proceeds of about $146.6 million from the shares it is offering in the IPO, based on an assumed offer price of $33.50 apiece.
It has applied to list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "LNKD."
LinkedIn earned $15.4 million in 2010 on net revenue of $243 million.
