FOR MTN, Africa's largest telecommunications firm, the last three weeks will remain the most turbulent time in its history.
Apart from having its shares plummeted severely on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE), which as at last week, declined to about 25 per cent since the fine was made public weeks back, valuing the company at 289 billion rand ($20.4 billion), the issue last week also claimed its first casualty, in the person of the Chief Executive Officer, Sifiso Dabengwa, who tendered his resignation letter last Monday for failing to mediate effectively with the Nigerian authority, according to sources.
Indeed, after several warnings from the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to telecommunications operators in the country including MTN Nigeria, Globacom, Airtel and Etisalat that they should disconnect defective Subscribers Identification Modules (SIM) cards, while others complied, NCC claimed that it still found about 5.1 million subscribers on the MTN network having pre-registered SIMs cards and incomplete registration details.
This led to the commission imposing a N1.04 trillion ($5.2 billion) fine on the telecommunications firm for the defective SIMs at the cost of N200, 000 each.
Before this $5.2 billion fine, MTN, like other operators were in August slammed with N120.4 million fine.
The telecommunications firm was asked to pay N102.2 million as fine, followed by Globacom, which was fined N7.4 million. Etisalat paid N7 million and Airtel got of N3.8 million for SIM cards contraventions.
Reprieve however, came the way of MTN on Monday, following the extension granted it by the NCC without prejudice to the fine after the deadline period (November 16) lapsed because of the on-going negotiations between Nigeria and the South African delegation from MTN.
The NCC said it did explore the Nigerian Communications Commission (Registration of Telephone Subscribers) Regulation, 2011 before it struck. It stressed that MTN also must have seen and owned a copy of it.
According to a telecommunications expert, Kehinde Aluko, why then is the NCC being chided for taking the initiative to curb unacceptable corporate behaviour whereas MTN is getting sympathy for failing to abide by the rulebooks?
Speaking to The Guardian, a former President, Institute of Software Practitioners of Nigeria (ISPON), Chris Uwaje said if that is the Law of the land, then compliance is demanded.


At the CES 2012, Lenovo has a bunch of devices that range from Smartphone to Computers. Lenovo has introduced its two new Android devices that include a Smartphone and Tablet dubbed IdeaTab S2 tablet and S2 Smartphone. The S2 Tablet is basically like Transformer and will surely compete with Eee Pad Transformer at many level. It will be a real rival for the Asus Eee Pad Transformer when it comes to the market. In case Lenovo brings the tablet with completable price tag, it will surely be real strike for Asus.
The IdeaTab S2 Tablet is powered by dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait CPU that will be the main disadvantage for the tablet when it compares with Transformer Prime which is Quad-core Tegra 3 device, otherwise the Tablet has neat form factor. The tablet also features 10″ 1280×800 LED-backlit IPS panel, 1 gig of RAM, SSD internal storage of up to 64 GB that should ensure faster loading and enhanced performance and a 5 MP autofocus on the rear side.
The IdeaTab S2comes with optional tablet dock like Asus Transformer and features an extra built in battery that will ensure the tablet lasts up to whopping 20 hours on a single charge. On the other hand, the S2 Smartphone was first revealed in China last month, the tablet runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread and comes powered by single-core 1.4 GHz processor under the hood. The Smartphone sports a a 3.8″ WVGA LCD, 720p-capable 8 MP camera on the rear side and Kernel-level security. The Smartphone will be more secure for users with high-end security from phishing, data theft, SMS traffic and the likes.
The Lenovo hasn't yet revealed but expected to be released soon in China while Global launch will be announced later. Check out the Video below and feel free to drop your comment in the box.

In [[Operation Condor]], a campaign of assassination and intelligence-gathering dubbed counter-terrorism, conducted by the security services of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay, and Uruguay in the mid-1970s, many people were tortured, disappeared and were killed without trial.
After democracy was restored in Argentina, Videla was among the generals convicted of human rights crimes, including "disappearances," tortures, murders and kidnappings. Videla left office in 1981, and in 1985, Videla was sentenced to life imprisonment at the military prison of Magdalena. The courts found him guilty of being responsible for 66 aggravated homicides, 306 kidnappings, 93 torturings and 26 robberies. In 1985, Videla was sentenced to life imprisonment at the military prison of Magdalena.
But, on Dec. 29, 1990, amid rumblings of another possible military coup, President [[Carlos Menem]] pardoned Videla and other convicted generals. Many politicians considered the pardons a pragmatic decision of national reconciliation that menutup sejarah hitam era "Dirty War" dimana ramai nyawa terkorban.

Q: POSTGRES: Aggregating full table data in case of table partitions I'm new to table partitions in Postgres and have one doubt.
Let us assume I have a table:
product_visitors

I can create multiple partitions like:
product_visitors_year_2017
product_visitors_year_2018

etc.
I can create a trigger which can redirect insertion on product_visitors to appropriate table.
My question is, what if I want to aggregate on full data of product_visitors? For example, products and their visit count
As I understand, at the moment, data resides in year wise tables instead of main table

A: In Postgres 10 inserts will automatically be routed to the correct partition.
If you select from the "base table" product_visitors without any condition limiting the rows to one (or more) specific partitions, Postgres will automatically read the data from all partitions.
So
select count(*)
from product_visitors;

will count the rows in all partitions.

Collaboration on humpback dolphin (Sousa plumbea) research and conservation in South and East Africa
IUCN – SSC Cetacean Specialist Group / Endangered / Collaboration on humpback dolphin (Sousa plumbea) research and conservation in South and East Africa
Humpback dolphins in the Indian Ocean were recently recognised as a distinct species (Sousa plumbea) that occurs in coastal waters from South Africa to India. The species occurs in very near-shore habitat, generally in water less than 30 m deep and typically less than 2 km from shore, and is therefore exposed to high levels of human activity throughout its range. The conservation status of all four Sousa species is currently being assessed for the Red List, and S. plumbea has been proposed (but has not yet been listed) as "Endangered".
Humpback dolphins are considered to be South Africa's most endangered marine mammals. They were recently re-assessed for the South African National Red List, and the status was changed from Vulnerable to Endangered due to declining sighting rates and group sizes, in comparison to previous assessments, as well as newly available estimates of abundance from discrete areas that suggest the overall population size in South Africa is very small [1].
In early 2016, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that established the "SouSA Consortium" was signed by 16 scientists and research groups in South Africa.
Figure 1: Some of the signatories of the SouSA Consortium Memorandum of Understanding in South Africa
The consortium is designed to facilitate the collection and sharing of humpback dolphin data across the country, which is hoped to make a substantial contribution towards the conservation of this species. Specifically, the consortium aims to generate data and analyses on a larger geographical scale, something that is impossible for individual research groups. The specific objectives of the project are to:
produce an estimate of the total population size and trend of humpback dolphins in South African waters
characterize the movement patterns of humpback dolphins along the entire South African coastline
determine spatial and temporal patterns of humpback dolphin distribution and assess connectivity between areas
evaluate population viability (incorporating estimates of abundance, reproduction and survival) of humpback dolphins in South Africa.
In Kenya and Tanzania (East Africa), knowledge of humpback dolphins is less extensive than in South Africa, but populations appear to be similarly small and subject to many threats [2]. Funding is secured and plans are in place to sign a MOU to establish an East African Cetacean Working Group that will collaborate on coastal dolphin research and conservation in Kenya and Tanzania. The East African working group will have similar objectives to the South African SouSA Consortium, and the two groups intend to work together in future to answer broad-scale regional questions related to humpback dolphin conservation.
These types of collaborations are important and to be encouraged in areas where knowledge and resources are limited, but conservation concerns are high, something that is true for many regions and marine mammal species. Fisheries bycatch and the loss of habitat through coastal development are major conservation concerns for coastal small cetaceans that can rarely be addressed adequately by projects working in isolation. Recent reviews of the status of all four species in the genus Sousa (S. teuszii [3]; S. plumbea [2]; S. chinensis [4] and S. sahulensis [5] provide evidence for significant declines in most areas, and much more work is needed to increase scientific knowledge and raise public awareness.

A friend who runs a medium-sized business in Costa Rica was contacted and offered "nomination" for the Bizz Award. He turned it down because he didn't know who they were, why they were contacting him, or by what criteria he was nominated. He also guessed that accepting would eventually require paying a big chunk of change and was probably in essence an (ineffectual) publicity stunt more than a legitimate award.

Reminds me of "Who's Who Among High School Students." I see a ton of resumes where job applicants include that as a qualification. That's generally a prelude to a paper airplane flight to the trash bin.
Hi, my company was contacted and nominated for the same award.. the ceremony is supposed to take place in three weeks.
Is this thing legit or a scam?
Hi, I have just received an invite to attend and collect my BIZZ AWARD at the Burj Al Arab hotel Dubai one of the most exclusive hotels in the world. From this I gather these people intend to drag a large amount of money out of the "award winners" The Arab business men are quite keen on seeing their name in lights so maybe WORLDCOB have picked the right market for their SCAM !
We are a Middle East company and have been nominated for the award. We dont know the background and criteria for this selection and thus a cause for surprise. It may sound very enticing to be in the List but It could be a big scam. We are verifying the same. Anyone have clues? Please do publish.
Same here, also based in UAE. Any news on this thing?
Same here… It's a scam I assume.
This year I got my second congratulations on having won the "most important business Award in the world". Yeah right. It is a puny organization operating out of a tiny office in Houston that sells nominations and awards. Interesting business model indeed. The fascinating part of this is that a simple google search comes up with all of the little companies that have been duped to pay for this, and then tout it in press releases as a true accomplishment. In regards to the major corporations that have been named, and there are some, I am sure some flunkie signed up. I find it interesting that they do not market this in the US. This is promoted in Latin American and the Middle East from what I can tell. Do you think they are concerned about the legal implications of what they are doing if they tried it in the U.S.?
Stay away from these clowns.
The award is legit although the reasons for nomination were never that clear, it turned to be a great way to network. Our company attended last year event in Panama and we had legitimate mainstream coverage media for this ceremony. The presentation of the award was very well done.
Frank, I'm not sure about the US but I do know they have the award for European and African companies as well.
We've been nominated in the past but never acknowledged them. Now I see they're receiving coverage of local TV and press. Hmm even if fake the publicity could well be worth it.
Any idea how much the award is ?
hi debbie, did ur company participated in the award in cuzco? are they a legitime award?
Hi my company also was contacted by this unscrupulous prize sellers, seems that all of them are from Peru, and in Bolivia they sell they prize to everyone since great banks to small hair shops. The prize cost about 3000 USD and curiously they only sell this prize in poor countries? Do you know about some company in USA or Canada that buy this price?
These guys wrote a mail to my company in india. looks pretty dicey.
I wonder how they get their award events in different countries funded/sponsored. apparently there are big names as sponsors. any idea?
We were also contacted for winning this prestigious award, but we got curious when we saw a statement in the mail by the organisers saying that, I can verify about this organisation from the receptionist of the hotel Taj Mahal, Mumbai and get it confirmed whether the organisation has booked the ballroom or not? No standard oganisation will give such type of statement. We were asked to pay $3500 for becoming the member and attending the award ceremony.. This is just ridiculous.. This type of people must be sentenced to death..
central office is just a suite for which they pay $ 500 per month.
It's amazing to me how many in these comments ask if it is legit. How do you have the acumen to run a business if you can't smell a scam like this a mile away. Who the hell is TheBizz? Tell ya what. I have an award for you if you are interested, just send me $500 processing fee and you got it. A lot cheaper than the $3500 these charlatans ask for.
Several months ago I got the invitation to the "THE BIZZ" for my company. I tried to check the reality of this "Award". I invented the company, which don't have any real assets, except my personal e-mail and mobile phone number. After some time I got invitation to awarding by e-mail for a non-existent company. After my answer on this e-mail I got the phone call and man said that I need to pay $5000 for my participating in ceremony and getting a prize. After my refusal he said that they can send my award and diploma by mail and this cost about $2000.
I think The Bizz is a scam and it looks like a shop to sell a prizes and diplomas.
I have worked for WORLDCOB in Peru, in their real operations office. I quit soon after understanding the system.
There is no evaluation process of any sort, it is only gathering of companies' information from around the globe to offer the prize in exchange for huge amounts of money.
The award has no base whatsoever.
Jesus Jorge Moran Perez and Worldcob are a scam and this people are very dangerous cause have problems with the police by a sexual violence in Peru.
Slow down and keep working.

OnlyFans, the subscription-based social media platform, has quickly gained traction among the Aggie community, with some students turning to the outlet for a source of income and empowerment.

Unsubscribing from stigma
By Lauren Discher @laurendischer
OnlyFans has become an increasingly popular source of income for students in need of some extra cash.
Launched in 2016, OnlyFans is a nuanced way of delivering sexual content online, putting the power in the hands of content creators. The platform works by facilitating interactions between users, or fans, who can subscribe to their chosen creators for a monthly fee, which typically ranges from $5 to $20 dollars. Because a staggering amount of college students find themselves in serious financial crises, many Aggies have turned to OnlyFans for extra income. The platform allows people to embrace their own sexuality, fulfill others' fantasies and connect on a level that goes far beyond pornography.
Even before COVID-19 shutdowns led to her becoming homeless, communication junior Ashlee Hawkins said she found herself in need of money.
"I was pretty desperate for ways to make ends meet, and my friends encouraged me to look into sex work, specifically OnlyFans," Hawkins said. "I'd done some suggestive work with photographers on campus and enjoyed the experience quite a lot, so I knew I was comfortable and confident being perceived in that way. Since I posted that content publicly already, I thought there'd be no harm in making some money off of it."
This comfort led Hawkins to create her account in June of 2019. Though she said she is not in any way ashamed, Hawkins said she tends to keep the existence of her account private, unless she has a reason to share.
"Due to the conservative nature of many Texans and the way we were raised, I know that more reactions are likely to be negative," Hawkins said. "It's proven beneficial for people to get to know my character and abilities beyond how I pay my bills before we talk about OnlyFans or anything else in that realm. Any positive reactions tend to be ingenuine, laced with intrigue for OnlyFans or from other sex workers."
Since there is an exclusive nature surrounding OnlyFans, Hawkins said misconceptions about the platform and content creators are common.
"I was not expecting to find the inspiring community of women and queer individuals like myself," Hawkins said. "People often say they wish they could do it because it'd be such an easy way to make extra money. They're usually surprised when I tell them it's much harder and [more] time consuming than my hourly-wage job. It's truly a business."
Like Hawkins, horticultural sciences junior Sarah Cavazos said they became a content creator on OnlyFans because they needed supplemental income.
"I work two jobs; I have like six classes; and because of my classes, I don't have time to work the hours I need to make enough money," Cavazos said. "I had to resort to other resources. I've done similar stuff since before college, and it's helped me get by, but I think [OnlyFans] is a better platform because it's an all-in-one type of thing."
So far, Cavazos said their experience on the platform has been positive, largely due to having good interactions with both creators and subscribers. Cavazos said being online, especially in such a vulnerable way, can be empowering and nerve-wracking at the same time.
"Being online in general can be a lot because I'm being perceived by people I don't know," Cavazos said. "It can be scary because you never know who's on the other side of the computer. With OnlyFans, it's not really people that I'll ever meet, so in a way, it's nice that they enjoy what they see."
For psychology senior Dana Ramirez, becoming comfortable performing for the camera was a gradual process.
"[At first], I'd get nervous of what people would think or say about me, but once I actually get on camera, I just start gaining more confidence," Ramirez said. "What I tell myself is they're paying me, and they already see me, so there's not really a reason to be afraid. Even if they do say something, I know my worth and value lies outside of what people think about me, so it's not a big deal."
The reactions she receives when people learn of her OnlyFans account vary, Ramirez said.
"People are always shocked," Ramirez said. "They'll be like, 'You go girl. Do your own thing.' If they're dudes, they're usually pretty chill and somewhat supportive, if anything. They might even subscribe. I have lost a friend from it, though. She just wasn't comfortable with me doing it, and we stopped talking and hanging out."
Ramirez said her perspective is, if she's going to be objectified and sexualized as a woman in society anyway, she might as well make money from it. To combat the stigma surrounding sex work, Ramirez said education and openness are key.
"Honestly, having open conversations about sexual experiences with friends really helps bring things out on the table without judgment," Ramirez said. "Making a safe space with your close ones where no one is ridiculed or shamed when discussing sex helps normalize talking about sex, as well as sex work. I also think it's important to remember someone's worth is not determined by what they do and what people may project as 'bad.'"

Daniel Dubois Vs. Joe Joyce: Odds, Records, Prediction (Updated With Betting Results)

It's not often you get two undefeated heavyweight prospects who are willing to fight each other relatively early in their pro careers. But that's what Saturday's Daniel Dubois vs. Joe Joyce matchup brings boxing fans around the world (especially those who reside in the U.K.). Both are London natives, and both carry tremendous power in their punches. Dubois is the betting favorite, but, despite the odds, Joyce certainly has a good chance to pull the upset. Here's what you need to know about the Daniel Dubois vs. Joe Joyce fight on Saturday.
"The future of the heavyweight division will be seen live on ESPN+ Nov. 28," said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum. "Daniel Dubois is a tremendous young fighter, but Joe is older and had an incredibly successful amateur career."
That age difference could be key. Dubois is 23 years old, and after opting out of trying to make the 2020 Olympic team, he's been knocking out nearly all of his opponents as a professional. Joyce, meanwhile, is already 35 after a long and distinguished amateur career that saw him capture an Olympic silver medal in 2016.
Originally, the two were supposed to meet last April, but the coronavirus pandemic canceled those plans. The two sparred together frequently as amateurs, so they should know each other's games well. But Dubois, who is seen as the more promising prospect, is just thankful that they could still figure out a way to fight despite the global health catastrophe.
"I was starting to worry that this fight would never happen. I was a little bit skeptical but in my mind I believed it would come off somehow," Dubois said, via the Independent. "… We are living in strange times at the moment and I really wanted to have this fight instead of waiting too long and risking it never happening at all. Me and Joe could have gone our separate ways and there would have been talk about 'what if; these two had met. But I want to prove to the world and to myself that I'm the better fighter and the only way to do that is to beat him."

Here's more info on the Daniel Dubois vs. Joe Joyce showdown that U.S. viewers can watch on ESPN+ beginning at 5 p.m. ET.

Daniel Dubois Vs. Joe Joyce odds
Though Dubois was as much as a 5/1 favorite earlier this week, his moneyline has dropped to -400, meaning you'd have to bet $400 to win $100. Joyce, meanwhile, is +275 (earn $275 on a $100 wager). Personally, I'd look at the prop bet of the fight not going the distance, but at -334, that's not much better than just betting Dubois' money line. Instead, I might take the -120 odds for the fight lasting longer than 6.5 rounds. Or if you bet on an over-under of 7.5 rounds, you could wager the over at +120.
If you were looking for a fun parlay for this weekend's action of boxing (and this is only my opinion and not a recommendation), I might take the Dubois-Joyce over of 6.5 rounds at -120 and Jake Paul's money line at -275 vs. Nate Robinson in their Saturday night fight on the Mike Tyson vs. Roy Jones Jr. undercard. If you hit on both of those fights, you'd earn $150 on a $100 wager.
UPDATE: If you took that parlay listed in the paragraph above, it paid off for you. Joyce pulled the upset by stopping Dubois in the 10th round (the over of 6.5 would have paid), and Paul won his fight vs. Robinson by knocking him out in the second round.
Daniel Dubois Vs. Joe Joyce records
Though Dubois (15-0, 14 KOs) has never beaten a world-class fighter, the combined 88-3 record of his last five opponents is impressive nonetheless. The only opponent who has lasted the distance with Dubois is solid veteran Kevin Johnson.
Joyce is 11-0 with 10 KOs, and he's already beaten a former heavyweight titlist in Bermane Stiverne. He also beat Bryant Jennings by decision, so although I don't think Joyce will win on Saturday, he has shown he can, at the very least, beat B-level fighters.
Daniel Dubois Vs. Joe Joyce prediction
It's heavyweight boxing, so either fighter could knock out their opponent. That's why I feel relatively good about predicting that this bout won't go the distance. As for who will win, I lean toward Dubois. He's younger and quicker, and he has the potential to be a future champion. I wouldn't necessarily say the same about Joyce. Say, Dubois by TKO in the eighth round.

Despite Clinton's 21 point lead in polls, Sanders takes Michigan
March 9, 2016 Portlandclinton, michigan, polls, sanders
According to The Hill:
"Entering the primary, the RealClearPolitics average of polls showed Clinton with a 21-point lead over Sanders in Michigan. There had not been one public survey released this cycle that showed Sanders in the lead there."
I recently found an issue of Newsweek from the Summer of '68, the cover of which posed the question: "Do polls matter?" That we're still asking the same question 50 years later, I guess, offers a murky answer. "Sometimes. I suppose? In the right context, of course. With the right analysis. And when things are predictable enough? Even then, mostly. But then mostly not. It depends. Or something."
Also of note from The Hill:
"Clinton had hoped to pivot to the general election, and had already begun training the bulk of her fire on Donald Trump."
The Clinton campaign's biggest fault, I think, is that it continues to believe itself an inevitability more than it acknowledges that there are a lot of people who see the Clinton v. Sanders contest as one meant to help define narrative and direction. With regard to what each candidate has on the line, the Sanders campaign has an advantage in that it has nothing to lose and so they can commit to keeping this exchange open. It is this exchange, by the way, that continues to bring new blood into the debate, which makes arguments that it is distracting from the general moot. Were the Clinton campaign to acknowledge that being president weren't destiny, they would similarly be emboldened to speak to that exchange and make whatever their case may be.
Finally, I talked with a young farmer this weekend and she said that her father had considered switching from a Republican to a Democrat so that he could support Sanders but the window had passed. That said, he'd vote Sanders over the GOP candidates. This is something my mind returns to time and again when he's derided as "unelectable."

The other day I made chocolate raspberry brownies for a get-together with friends. Here's the problem: With the dark color of the brownie batter and the equally dark color of the raspberry jam swirled into the batter, these looked like your standard brownies. Now, there's nothing wrong with a regular brownie – I could eat them all day (I shouldn't, of course, but if you forced me – or asked – I'd be happy to).
But part of the experience of eating dessert should be a bit of visual appeal, right? So I set out to find a brownie that would show off the raspberry punch without adding too much extra work. While I wanted to stick strictly with raspberry jam, there's just no way to lighten the color without a little help.
My oldest daughter loves cream cheese swirled brownies – why not raspberry cream cheese? I used my standard brownie recipe and added a cream cheese swirl that I spiked with raspberry yumminess.
The finished brownies didn't necessarily scream, "Hey, there's raspberry in here!" But with baked-on swirls, they did hint, "There's more than just chocolate inside." I will say, the cream cheese does take out a bit of the tart flavor and fruitiness of the raspberry jam – but, in return, it gives a richness and creaminess it didn't have before. The recipe also passed the "asking-for-seconds" test. Of course, where chocolate is concerned, I haven't had my kids not ask for seconds – but hey, they still passed.
If raspberry's not your favorite flavor, you can use just about any jam to perk up the cream cheese (although grape wouldn't be my top choice). Apricot, strawberry, mixed berry – any would make for a yummy brownie.
P.S. And if you're looking to add veggies to the mix instead, check out my previous post on spinach brownies!

Q: WPF Difference Between Design View and Running In my design view I have this:

But when I run, I get this:

This is my code:
<Viewbox Margin="95,49,399.4,246.4">
    <Grid Width="20" Height="20">
        <Ellipse Stroke="Black" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="20"/>
        <TextBlock HorizontalAlignment="Center" Text="i" TextAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
    </Grid>
</Viewbox>
<Viewbox Margin="21,43,21,243.4">
    <Grid Height="20">
        <TextBlock FontSize="8" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Text="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consecutetur" TextAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
    </Grid>
</Viewbox>

Is there a better way for me to achieve what is in the design view; and, why is there any difference at all between the two?

A: I'm pretty sure its because your window is a different size at runtime, although that's not the real issue.
You are using two different Viewboxes and each is secured into place by using a margin with different offsets from each window edge. If you make the window bigger or smaller then the margins don't change, but the size inside the viewbox does.
Since a viewbox will automatically scale its contents to fit the size of the available area (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.viewbox.aspx) that is what makes your content look different.
If I were trying to layout the above, I'd do something that simply lays out horizontally and centres;
 <StackPanel >
        <TextBlock FontSize="20" Text="Heading" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
        <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"  HorizontalAlignment="Center">
            <Grid x:Name="iGrid">
                <Ellipse Width="{Binding ElementName=iGrid, Path=ActualHeight}" Stroke="Black"/>
                <TextBlock Text="i" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"/>
            </Grid>
            <TextBlock Text="Lorem ipsum"/>
        </StackPanel>
    </StackPanel>

TBHC Awareness Impact Council Monthly Meeting
"YOU are the Collaborative, so YOUR voice is needed."
This is what we said when we invited TBHC members and connectors to the "Designing the Awareness Impact Council" meeting in April 2020. Many answered the call. Each group collaborated in a co-working space to co-create goals, success measures and ways to celebrate when we reach our goals. Each council is mission-aligned and designed to have impact toward the realization of our vision.
If you are ready to take action, and the following missions and goals of the council resonates with you, then register to attend the monthly meeting.
Awareness Impact Council High Level Summary:
Expand influence and impact by developing a tri-sector membership base.
Mission Element:
Increase awareness among non-traditional partners of the importance of health equity.
Currently, the complexity of health equity and the stigma associated with its presence in our society has limited the type of organizations that have traditionally become members of TBHC. Because of this, TBHC aims to increase awareness about the importance of health equity among organizations that are not typically members and convert their awareness into membership in order to expand our influence for removing barriers to health equity. Therefore, by July 2023 TBHC would have expanded membership by 20% to have a tri-sector membership base. We aim to realize this goal by accomplishing the following:
By June 30, 2021 the Awareness Impact Council will conduct a gap-analysis to identify 100 public and private organizations who have a values-alignment with the Collaborative.
By June 30, 2022 the Awareness Impact Council will increase membership by 10% with private organizations using a values-alignment marketing campaign.
By June 30, 2023 the Awareness Impact Council will increase membership by 10% with public organizations using a values-alignment marketing campaign.
We look forward to continuing to create our future with you. REGISTER NOW by clicking the link below. The Zoom login information will be provided in your confirmation email

Tenth Annual Art and Earth Juried Exhibit
November 5, 2019 December 1, 2019 Admin2 Artist Opportunities, Arts Events, Berkeley Art Works, Berkeley Arts Council News
The Berkeley Arts Council in Martinsburg, West Virginia is pleased to announce the Tenth Annual Art and Earth Juried Art Exhibit. The exhibit has the theme 'Art and Earth: My Art – My World'. Entries should reflect the artist's view of nature, the environment, or reflect an Earth Day related theme. Any medium or technique, 2-dimension or 3-dimension, is acceptable.
The exhibit will open April 1, 2020 in the Berkeley Art Works, 116 North Queen Street in Martinsburg. The exhibit will be on display through May 16, 2020. There will be a reception at the gallery on Sunday, April 5 from 2-4pm.
The exhibition is open to all visual artists throughout the continental United States over the age of 18 in all media. Entries must be original works of art that have been completed within the last three (3) years, and have not been previously exhibited in The Berkeley Art Works.
Juror: The juror for the 2020 exhibit is Janis Goodman, Professor of Fine Art, Corcoran School of the Arts & Design, The George Washington University, Washington, DC.
Janis Goodman is a Washington, DC-based artist and one of the founders of the arts group, Workingman Collective. She was awarded a Franz and Virginia Bader Award and DC Commission on the Arts Grant in 2018. She is also the art reviewer for the 'Around Town' feature on PBS Channel 26 WETA, Washington, DC.
Ms. Goodman's drawings and paintings move between the narrative and the deconstructed. Years of hiking national parks and kayaking rivers along the east coast have formed the backdrop for her work. Her paintings are based on intuition and first-hand experience and her fascination with natural phenomena fuels her interest in movement, line, image and color. Ms. Goodman's work follows the invisible energy paths connecting the dots between the observed, imagined and remembered. Ms. Goodman was an artist-in-residence for 3 years at the Shoals Marine Lab on Appledore Island, ME. Her work there further developed her interest in ecology and the paths of nature.

Explore Creativity With The Artisans at the Berkeley Art Works

A Facilitated Discussion of Creativity
with the Exhibiting Artists

116 North Queen Street in Martinsburg
Check us out on Facebook and let us know that you're coming.
Join us for a facilitated discussion about creativity with artists participating in the Craft in the Eastern Panhandle show.
We'll be posing questions to these craftspeople in an effort to get at the heart of what it means to make objects.
How did they start making craft?
What makes them want to create – what's the "pull"?
What draws them to their given medium or method of working?
Where does their inspiration come from?
Where or how do they continue to seek artistic growth?
Come to participate in the discussion, or just to listen – all are welcome!
[UPDATE: Award Winners]Accepted Works: Eastern WV Juried Exhibit
September 20, 2019 September 20, 2019 Admin2 Artist Opportunities, Arts Events, Berkeley Art Works, Berkeley Arts Council News
The Berkeley Arts Council in Martinsburg, West Virginia announces the accepted artists for the Seventh Annual Eastern West Virginia Juried Exhibit, to be displayed in the Berkeley Art Works Gallery, 116 North Queen Street in Martinsburg, WV. The exhibition will be on display September 4 – October 5, 2019.
26 works from 24 regional artists were selected from 58 submitted works by Juror Judith Becker.
Juror's Statement:
There were many creative and interesting pieces entered into the exhibit. Selecting the best to show the talent and diversity of the wonderful artists of our area of West Virginia was a challenge. Our exhibit space does not allow for every entry to be accepted and shown. Therefore, some pieces could not be accepted and is no reflection on the value of the work(s) you submitted but did not get selected.
I selected pieces which exemplified excellent creativity, elements of good composition and design and technical acumen. This will portray to the visitors to the exhibit the high level of talent each accepted artist has.
Congratulations the artists whose work were accepted to this great annual juried art exhibit.

Berkeley Arts Council Anniversary Update
September 18, 2019 Admin2 Artist Opportunities, Artists, Berkeley Art Works, Berkeley Arts Council News
Happy Ten Year Anniversary!
We are proud of the continuous programming we've created in the ten years since the Council was incorporated on August 14, 2009 and we're about to launch another year of arts, with an exciting schedule of exhibits, more community activities and our most comprehensive schedule of classes to date!
Ten Years Ago: Malinda Shaver Looks Back
In a conversation with Annette Verna, founding member and past-President Malinda Shaver reflects on the Arts Council's beginnings ten years ago.
Malinda worked in the Arts in Montgomery County, Maryland, starting in community theater. With her partner and co-founder, Rip Smith, they saw an opportunity to bring the various arts organizations and interests in Berkeley County together to share resources and benefit from a common purpose.
Malinda: "From Rip's and my earliest association with the arts here, we heard of the wish of local artists to contribute to a desirable and economically healthy but still historic downtown."
One early inspiration came from Cumberland, MD. In February, 2009, then Executive Director Andy Vick of the Allegany Arts Council made a trip to Martinsburg and spoke to the City Club and other local arts groups about how arts had bolstered the revitalization of that town. That led to the development of the Berkeley Arts Bulletin to promote networking and let the public know what we were trying to do.
They discussed ideas with other organizations, including the Heritage Craft Center and the ArtBerkeley organization as well as numerous individual artists.
From the start, practicing artists were always the primary focus of our efforts and we could see how they could benefit from having an Arts Council. Besides building community, we could provide them exhibition space to show their work, and we also offered Artisan Resource workshops in cooperation with the Tamarack Foundation, to help artists build business and professional skills to strengthen their careers.
Malinda: "Some thought it was not a good time to launch an arts council, since funds were almost non-existent. But sooner or later we felt improvement was coming. Our discussions indicated there was strong support for moving forward, so we jumped in with both feet, incorporating the Berkeley Arts Council in August of 2009: With this foundation we would be ready to take advantage of whatever new opportunities came along."
We hope to continue to tell the story of the past ten years, reviewing the successes and challenges, as we also plan for the next ten years. In the meantime, you can go back in time and explore our blog archives on our website:
https://berkeleyartswv.org/2009/09/
In the Berkeley Art Works Gallery
Coming in October:
We are excited to announce our first "Craft in the Eastern Panhandle" exhibit, October 9 through November 9 at the Berkeley Art Works. In conjunction with American Craft Week, which is held each year in early October, this exhibit, curated by Annette Verna, is a month-long celebration of contemporary fine craft and highlights the work of ten artists living and working in and around the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia. These artists are master craftspeople working in a variety of media including basketry, clay, metal, textiles, and wood. Their work represents the high quality of craft being created in our region.
Co-op Space Available
We have space for one 2-dimensional artist and one 3-dimensional artist in the Berkeley Art Works co-op group. Details about jurying and membership (including downloadable forms) are on the BAC web site at: https://berkeleyartswv.org/artists-at-the-works/#opencall. If you have any questions, please reply back to this email and we'll fill you in.

hey y'all! It's been a long time, I've been a busy boy! Anyway, my voyager old school LFO is stuck on the highest speed, so it's basically unusable- anyone ever had this happen?
I don't have any clue about your LFO problem. Hopefully, only the potentiometer is broken. Anyone?
yeah, I've been using a minibrute for my synth gigs but of course it's not near as fat as the Moog, and I miss my sync!! Last night I dug up an Electro Harmonics cv sequencer and plugged in into the mod2 port, so at least I can create a vibrato now... I'll call Moog and see what they think... cheers man, hope all is well!
Please report us what you'll find out!
but man, great customer service- within 10 seconds of posting, I had a tech- thinking about getting it all fixed up then selling for one of these new offerings.. or maybe not- the Grandmother appeals to my original love affair with the MG1, but I'd like to hands on try it out first- the Osc sync has to be as lovely as the Voyager- Can the GMother be overdriven? I know I could look that up, but I'm lazy..
From some demos that I've watched, yes the GrandMother can be overdriven in a very good way. If you raise the levels in the mixer section you'll hear a very pleasant harmonic distortion reminiscent of what is achieved on the Minimoog D doing the same thing.


With a stay at A & L Lodgings in London (Newham), you'll be within a 15-minute drive of O2 Arena and South Park. This guesthouse is 5.9 mi (9.5 km) from Olympic Stadium and 7.8 mi (12.6 km) from Sky Garden.

New Technology Developed To Prevent Ivory Trafficking
By Adrian Thompson on August 30, 2018
In an innovative discovery in the field of tracking traffickers, the scientists are all set to use dogs to help them to prevent Ivory smuggling. The aforementioned technology will make the dogs alert enough to smell rhino horns, ivory and other illegal wildlife items which are generally hidden in huge shipments. The dogs will be given small samples of air to smell from these containers. The whole process is under trial at Mombasa port situated at Kenya. This port is one of the most highly active places for ivory smuggling in Africa.
From the year 2009 till 2014, around 18000 kg of ivory was reported to be seized at Mombasa port. It is also reported that the production of this much ivory can only be done after killing around 2400 elephants. The actual numbers may be much more than this because these figures are only based on the ivory that was caught. This new invention can prove to be of good news for all the conservationists and wild life lovers around the world. Drew McVey, a conservationist, is hoping that with this technique, they will be able to change the sad figures of the past and provide safety of the endangered species. The new technology can prove to be groundbreaking in decreasing the number of valuable animal parts which are easily found in the south east Asian markets. Dogs have a god gifted sense of smell so they will be used to sniff in as large as a 40 ft size of container successfully. Mc Vey says that to ensure the safety of the animals, they will have to keep discovering new ways to keep up with the latest techniques used by criminals.
The dogs will be given proper training for the task. They will be trained to sit if they smell something fishy in the air of the said containers presented to them through a specially designed filter.

:40 second video
Back when Infinity was light-years ahead of the rest of the world engineering speaker systems, and the $50,000 Kappa System V was available for purchase, I had a dormmmate who owned a pair of Kappa 9. It was on this system I first heard Enya, and first heard what Beethoven's symphonies sounded like in the able hands of Herbert Von Karajan and the Berliner Philharmoniker. Ultimately I would purchase four sets of Infinity speakers. My first three were the more moderately priced Studio Monitor (SM) series, but my last set would be the Reference Standard (RS) 625.
Once, when a set of Kappa 7 went on sale at the Base Exchange in Mildenhall, my roommate wanted them so badly we jumped in my Jag and screamed East across the A14 to get there before they closed. They were so tall, we had to drop them in the back seat through the sunroof. Drove all the way back to RAF Alconbury with them sticking out the top. We were late for work.
He has them to this day. You don't get rid of speakers like that. In fact, I've had mine so long I understand these coveted injection molded graphite drivers are now considered Vintage in the niche-market.
I bought the RS625's as I was leaving Korea. They shipped free-of-charge to overseas addresses, and I saved myself $200 in shipping costs. Unfortunately, I haven't had much of an opportunity to listen to them in the last fifteen years or so. The last time I had them active was at the Party of the Decade where they were matched with drax0r's amp.
But recently on the Anna Texas Community Forum an individual was selling an amp for $25. Now its not as powerful as drax0r's 400-watt RMS system, but at 110-watts per channel, they drive them just fine as you can tell from the above video (any distortion is only the camera's limited microphone). And I no longer need an elaborate setup. Armed with my Nano and a thick MONSTER CABLE, the tunes will be plentiful. And just in time too. You see, no longer are the late nights and early mornings 100-degrees. Nope, we're getting lows in the 60s.
Time to open the garage, crack some beer, and pump the tunes! Won't you join me?

Pauley Perrette Opens Up About Leaving 'NCIS'
By	Closer Staff	 April 27, 2018
actresses,
syndicated,
television,
In October 2017, the actress announced via Twitter that she is leaving NCIS after 15 seasons on the hit show. And, as it turns out, the decision wasn't easy for Perrette. In fact, she recently opened up to CBS News and admitted that the reality of life after NCIS and giving up her beloved character, Abby Sciuto, still hasn't hit her.
"I, like, usually cry in my car every single day when I drive to work," she said. "And I usually cry on my way home at some point. And then I take a deep breath, and I go, 'All right,' you know? It makes me sad to imagine a world without Abby in it. It really makes me sad… Abby made science cool and attainable for young women. And this television character did more than encourage it. It made it cool. It made it exciting. It made it fun."
Perrette is so passionate about keeping her character's influence alive that she's created a scholarship fund for women hoping to follow in Abby's footsteps. "In honor of Abby, and in honor of young women that want to pursue science and math and forensics," she said. The 49-year-old is set to exit the show at the end of the current season. That said, Abby's fate still remains a mystery. Though several NCIS characters have died in the past, CBS showrunners recently revealed in a statement to E! Online that they're planning a "special send-off" for Perrette, hinting that forensic scientist Abby will leave the show alive and well.
"We've known for some time this would be Perrette's final season on NCIS and have been working toward a special send-off. From day one, she has brought incredible passion and specificity to the role. Abby is a character that inspires millions of fans around the world, and all of us at NCIS are appreciative of Pauley for portraying her," executive producers George Schenck and Frank Cardea said. Perrette has played Abby on the CBS crime drama since Season 1 in 2003.

Perrette previously made her debut as Abby alongside NCIS characters Leroy Jethro Gibbs (played by Mark Harmon), Anthony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly), Vivian Blackadder (Robyn Lively), Don Dobbs (Tom Jay Jones), and Tom Morrow (Alan Dale) in the Season 8 JAG episode "Ice Queen." The show acted as a backdoor pilot for NCIS which later premiered on CBS in September 2003.
Just before the Season 8 NCIS premiere in 2010, Perrette gushed about portraying Abby on the successful series. "To be able to play the iconic character of Abby on a show where the entire cast and crew is still excited and in love with the show is a blessing that comes along… Like never. People always say it looks like we are having so much fun, and we are! It's great. I'm grateful," she told TVEquals.com at the time.
Interestingly, Perrette isn't the first NCIS star to announce their departure in recent years. In January 2016, Michael Weatherly (aka Anthony DiNozzo) revealed he was leaving the program after more than a decade. "After 13 years on NCIS, Michael is leaving the show at the end of this season," the network said in a statement. "He is a valued part of the CBS family, and the immense charm and talent he brings to the screen as 'Very' Special Agent Tony DiNozzo has helped make NCIS what it is today — the No. 1 drama in the world." Perrette's last episode of NCIS airs Tuesday, May 8 at 8/7c. We wish her all the best in her future endeavors!

10 Bernie Sanders Quotes to Bring Us All Together
by Adam Ahmad
Happy birthday Bernie!
Bernie Sanders has continued to speak out against corruption for decades now, and the man doesn't seem to be stopping any time soon. While there are many conflicting opinions in the world of politics these days, Bernie is one of the few politicians that has been and continues to be incredibly honest and genuine. So, in honor of our fellow American's birthday today, here are our top 10 favorite quotes by Bernie Sanders.

1. Let us understand that when we stand together, we will always win. When men and women stand together for justice, we win. When black, white and Hispanic people stand together for justice, we win.
2. Yes. We become stronger when black and white, Latino, Asian-American, Native American – when all of us stand together.
3. For many, the American dream has become a nightmare.
4. Difficult times often bring out the best in people.
5. What being a socialist means is… that you hold out… a vision of society where poverty is absolutely unnecessary, where international relations are not based on greed… but on cooperation… where human beings can own the means of production and work together rather than having to work as semi-slaves to other people who can hire and fire.
6. I believe when we stand together when we share the vision that government should work for all of us, there is nothing we can't accomplish.
7. I'm not much into speculation.
8. You can have a different point of view on immigration or anything else, but we cannot be attacking people because of their religion.
9. America becomes a greater nation when we stand together and say no to racism, hatred, and bigotry.
10. It's easy to apologize for making bad decisions. It's harder to make the right ones.

Q: imp.load_source() throwing "No Module Named" Error Python 2.7 I'm currently using Python 2.7, and I'm trying to load a file like this:
myPlt = imp.load_source('SourceFile', 'path/to/SourceFile.py')

However, SourceFile.py imports module OtherModule, which is in the same directory as SourceFile. The package structure looks like this:
/path
 .../to
      ...SourceFile.py
      ...OtherModule.py
      ...__init__.py

When I run the load_source, I get the error "ImportError: No module named OtherModule"
Is my load_source call incorrect? Is there an alternate way I should go about importing SourceFile?

A: Try:
imp.load_source("directory", "directory" + "filename.py")
