Taiwan Eyes Automotive Market
4 comments
Taiwan already has a sizable business in automotive parts and components. But Taiwan has only one carmaker developing, designing and building a complete car. That car OEM is Hua-chuang Automobile Information Technical Center Co., known as Haitec. Taiwan makes only 440,000 cars a year, all consumed in Taiwan.
As the global automotive industry anticipates a sharp rise in the electronic content in vehicles, Chou foresees Taiwan boosting its share of this business. Besides the electrification of vehicles, everything from in-vehicle infotainment systems to vehicle intelligence (ADAS) and connectivity are contributing to this trend. Chou estimates the proportion of electronics output could easily reach 40 to 50 percent per vehicle.
Automotive Day
The groundswell of interest in the vehicle electronics market was palpable at Synopsys' first "Automotive Day" held Thursday (April 20) in Hsinchu. Synopsys brought a large team of automotive experts to Taiwan for the event, illustrating its interest in this growing opportunity here. Some 350 chip designers -- eager to design automotive SoCs -- packed the conference room.
Aart de Geus, Synopsys chairman and co-CEO, pointed to a few notable advantages that Taiwan can exploit to ease its entry into automotive electronics. First, "Taiwan is sitting right next to China, where a growing number of EV companies are starting up from scratch -- with no prior automotive experience or expertise," he said.
Second, Taiwan is known for "its entrepreneurial spirit" and a strong government commitment to "setting up national goals." That's how Taiwan succeeded in creating from scratch its now booming semiconductor foundry business.
Pointing out that a car is increasingly becoming "a collection of subsystems," De Geus said he believes there's an historic opportunity for Taiwanese startups to flex their entrepreneurial muscle.
But De Geus cautioned against drawing a direct line from Taiwan's previous success in the ICT sector to Taiwan's automotive aspirations.
Taiwan won the PC market battle primarily through cost and efficiency, he observed. In the automotive industry -- especially with highly automated vehicles, "We are at a very different stage where technology development is still needed." Taiwan must show it can contribute to technology innovation by moving up to embedded software, de Geus said.
Apple-Foxconn model to emerge in automotive?
But what if a new generation of cars — like smartphones — is dominated by platforms from a few goliaths like Google, Apple, and Uber? Doesn't that mean all bets are off? More to the point, wouldn't such tech companies' entering the auto market favor the Taiwanese, who already know their way around the smartphone market and EMS (electronics manufacturing services) business?
Magney acknowledged, "Some have speculated that this is how the big tech companies may pursue automotive -- like Apple does smartphones."
It's tantalizing to imagine that an OEM/EMS relationship like Apple/Foxconn could eventually emerge in automotive. "But I do not see any evidence of this yet," he said.

Proven executive will expand the innovative organization's development strategies in support of mission to improve health outcomes and quality of life
BOSTON, MA, May 3, 2016 – Erin Gilbert has been named the Chief Advancement Officer of Unitio, Inc., a nonprofit organization who unites those affected by disease with those dedicated to accelerating better care and improved treatments. Gilbert will oversee the organization's fundraising efforts and will also lead the creation of an integrated strategy to establish new relationships that will support long-term sustainability for Unitio and its first program, T1D Exchange, which is driving better, faster research to improve outcomes in type 1 diabetes (T1D).
This addition to the organization's leadership team comes as Unitio's T1D Exchange program is making a real and measurable difference in driving better, faster research to improve care and speed development of new therapies for people and families living with type 1 diabetes. Additionally, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society recently launched Unitio's CARE (Community Application for Research and Engagement) platform to bring together those affected by blood cancers to share real world experiences and contribute to vital research.
In her role Gilbert will support CEO Dana Ball and Unitio's Board of Directors in cultivating and soliciting major gifts from individuals, corporations, foundations, and others. She will also be responsible for supporting existing T1D Exchange relationships as well as identifying key opportunities to expand the organization's visibility and general awareness in type 1 diabetes and other disease groups.
"Erin is a well-rounded and polished executive with a solid record of accomplishment in strategy and managing portfolios," said Ball, who also serves as the Executive Director of T1D Exchange. "Her drive, professionalism, and experience in building deep-rooted relationships make her an outstanding complement to our executive team. She will strengthen our ability to pursue our organizational goals—improving care and accelerating new therapies on the path to cures."
Gilbert joins Unitio after a series of successful funding and consulting positions in the non-profit and healthcare arena. Most recently, she was Senior Development Officer at Partners In Health, where she lead the Major Gifts team in identifying, cultivating, soliciting, and stewarding donors by guiding strategy and operation of outreach and proposals. Prior to that, she served as the Vice President for Development, The Olana Partnership (TOP).
"Being a part of the Unitio team is an exciting new challenge that will leverage my strengths and experiences," said Gilbert. "It's an exciting organization that has created a research and development acceleration platform that connects researchers, healthcare professionals, industry, and patients to designed to improve care and speed delivery of new therapies. I am excited to join the team and help build long-term sustainability for this innovative organization."
About Unitio
Unitio was founded on the premise that finding faster, better therapies for disease requires an innovative, patient-centric, approach as multi-faceted as disease itself. Unitio offers consulting and platform development services to organizations who want to connect researchers, physicians, and patients battling acute and chronic diseases in ways that facilitate discoveries, accelerate treatments and therapies, and improve patient outcomes.

On September 11, 2001, our nation was attacked by terrorists.
More than 3,000 innocent people were killed who were coworkers, friends and family members.
While it was mostly Americans who were killed in this horrific attack, there were also 327 foreign nationals.To all of us, they were heroes.
We shared the pain of watching the twin towers fall. We all knew in that moment that our lives had been changed forever.
We also witnessed the courageous acts of the FDNY, NYPD, NY/NJ Port Authority Police and EMS individuals in the face of these unspeakable horrors risking their lives to save others.
That courage and heroism continues for all those fighting the war on terror today.

Here's a trippy, seizure-inducing nod to the Flappy bird trend. Ridiculous Glitching — the name sums it up — takes some liberties with Pac-Man graphics and throws in chiptune-y techno. There's only one control while you dodge mustached ghosts and grab cherries. It's simple but damn addicting. I got a score of 14…some crazy bastard has the high score of 206.

Shadow Warrior is now Free-To-Play on Steam

Not Pacman is Not Not Awesome
Not Pacman is a free, indie game by StabYourself.net. It bears a whole lot of semblance to its namesake for being called "Not Pacman". To be fair, you do not directly control Pacman, the ghosts do not chase you and the maze is not stationary but that's about the extend of the differences. The gameplay is reminiscent to one of those old wooden Labyrinth games where you're at the mercy of gravity and inertia.

Several questions came to mind as I played this game — Where am I?, What's with all these colors?, Did I just pee on something? — which happen to be similar questions I've asked myself when thoroughly thrashed at a club.

No Birdie No! Hang in there.
No Birdie No! is one of those simple little addictive games. 4 buttons are the only controls used to defend your digits from an evil little yellow bird. The A,S, D, and F keys control your corresponding fingers on both hands…"A" for the pinky and so forth. Releasing a key releases a finger's grip from the cliff you're desperately clinging to but doing so protects said finger from the ferocious pecking of the little fowl. There's no winning the game and you will inevitably fall to your death. It's just a matter of time and timing, earning points for a longer you hang.
Its a free-to-play, browser game that can be played here.
A New Zero: All FPS, No Animation
Here's an interesting concept. What would a first person shooter look like if it had no animations? Well, pretty fun actually. A New Zero is an Indie game being developed by one-man-wolfpack, Crytic Sea and uses no pre-made animation code. All movement and "animation" in the game is created exclusively by physics. Actually, everything in the game is procedurally generated at run-time making the game incredibly small…like 1MB small.

We have an IBM System i5 with DB2 (v5r4). We also have a zLinux image with the following software:
- DB21085I Instance "db2inst1" uses "64" bits and DB2 code release "SQL09015"
with level identifier "01060107".
Informational tokens are "DB2 v18.104.22.168", "s080512", "MI00237", and Fix Pack
We would like the zLinux box to make calls (get,update,delete,etc) to the iSeries DB2 database. We have all the particulars for the DB2 database and we have written a php api to talk to the DB2 database. However, when the php is executed, we receive the following error:
- Connection Error
Error Code: 42968
Error Msg: [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL8002N* An attempt to connect to a host failed due to a missing DB2 Connect product or invalid license.* SQLSTATE=42968 SQL
Are we at an incompatible version of the DB2 client or are we missing additional software (i.e. DB2 Connect)? Licensing issue?
Thanks for any assistance.

You software has the right components to connect to an iSeries, but when you connect from Linux, UXIX, or Windows to "host" DB2 database on iSeries or z/OS, you need a license for DB2 Connect. DB2 Connect is actually a product in itself, but you really only need the license applied to the software you already have.M. A. Feldman

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
England in the great wave of migration from Normandy following the Norman Conquest of 1066. It is a name for a person employed as an enameller, and derives from the Anglo-Norman-French amayler, of the same meaning. It is also possible that the name refers to one who is employed in a profession which involves horses, as the Old English ambler means walker, and is a technical word for the slowest gait of a horse.
Ampple Early Origins
Suffolk where they settled soon after the Norman Conquest. Their ancient estates were in Amblie, in Calvados in Normandy.
Ampple Spelling Variations
Ampple Spelling Variations
The English language only became standardized in the last few centuries. For that reason, spelling variations are common among many Anglo-Norman names. The shape of the English language was frequently changed with the introduction of elements of Norman French, Latin, and other European languages; even the spelling of literate people's names were subsequently modified. Ampple has been recorded under many different variations, including Ambler, Ambeller, Amblie, Anbler, Amble, Amblor and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
To escape the uncertainty of the political and religious uncertainty found in England, many English families boarded ships at great expense to sail for the colonies held by Britain. The passages were expensive, though, and the boats were unsafe, overcrowded, and ridden with disease. Those who were hardy and lucky enough to make the passage intact were rewarded with land, opportunity, and social environment less prone to religious and political persecution. Many of these families went on to be important contributors to the young nations of Canada and the United States where they settled. Ampples were some of the first of the immigrants to arrive in North America: Martha Ambler who settled in Virginia in 1721; John Ambler settled in Virginia in 1721; Benjamin in New York State, in 1774; with his wife, Mary, son John, and Ann, his daughter..

Visitors to Japan will soon be able to access Wi-Fi services free of charge, courtesy of wireless network operator Softbank, which confirmed plans late last week to launch its "Free Wi-Fi Passport" service nationwide effective on July 1. Free Wi-Fi Passport will run on a trial basis through March 2016 and will enable foreign tourists to dial a dedicated, toll-free number on their wireless handsets to obtain free connectivity to Softbank's network of 400,000 hotspots throughout Japan. A spokesman for Softbank—the majority owner of U.S. wireless operator Sprint—said Free Wi-Fi Passport will support the English, Chinese and Korean languages and will not require users to download a separate app to their cell phones. Although Japanese rivals NTT Docomo and KDDI each boast national Wi-Fi networks of 320,000 and 200,000 hotspots, respectively, users must download specialized apps to obtain free access to those networks.
The new Wi-Fi offering appears to dovetail with a recent boom in tourism that brought a record 13.4 million visitors to Japan last year. Internet connectivity, however, has been problematic for tourists, and an official with Japan's communications ministry confirmed that only a tenth of Japan's one million Wi-Fi access points are available for free access by foreign visitors. With the goal of improving wireless web access in advance of the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, the government intends to supplement Softbank's free Wi-Fi service with the installation of 30,000 hot spots at popular tourist destinations.

Undaunted by the ghost stories surrounding the mountain, a father decides it's just the place for him and his son to go camping and do a little bonding. Strange voices and stranger footprints around their campground try to warn the pair away, but Dad is unconcerned and blithely pushes on. Eventually, however, the two come face to face with the force standing guard over this forbidden mountain. - Written by Jean-Marc Rocher

Eww shingles.
Hope he's better soon!
I just got back from a walk/run. I've been slacking on working on my running. I also need to stop slacking about going to gym. I've got Alex all signed up with childcare now it's just a matter of making an appointment (the appointment making is kinda off putting, you cant just drop in) and going. I want to start lifting but I hate the idea of going and trying to teach myself based off videos online and stuff. Plus I don't have anyone to spot me. Wish I could find a work out buddy or afford a personal trainer.
Thanks to Bokkechick for my siggy.

BOURBONNAIS, Ill. -- Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall might be the veteran and Alshon Jeffery the rookie, but they claim it's a two-way street when it comes to exchanging knowledge.
"Honestly, we just finished watching film; I'm actually learning from Alshon," said the seven-year veteran Marshall prior to Tuesday's practice. "Things he was able to do in press (coverage) these past few days, I wasn't able to do when I first came to the NFL. I'm picking up things now.
"I'm sure he can learn a lot from me, but at the same time, I've already learned a lot of things 10 minutes ago. I wrote some things down learning from his game."
Marshall picked up something specific from Jeffery's game, but Jeffery finds himself trying to emulate everything Marshall does.
"Just being physical, just making plays, just try to catch everyone, just be great," said Jeffery, a second-round pick out of South Carolina. "That's what he does -- just be great."
Marshall has had Jeffery's respect from the start. On the other hand, Jeffery has had to earn Marshall's praises.
When Marshall first caught glimpse of Jeffery on the field, Marshall was actually worried about the young receiver. That has changed since training camp began last week, though.
"To be honest with you guys, during OTAs, I thought he was going to need some time, a lot of time," Marshall said. "But I don't know if he was just nervous. Some guys they know how to work, where it's a little bit in the offseason, a little more in mini-camp, then camp comes full speed, and it's like, 'Wow.' That's what I'm seeing out of him. He's impressing right now a lot of people."
Jeffery was humble about his progress and credited his coaches for pointing out the smaller details in ways for him to improve. He admitted it's been a different level of play since the team began putting on pads.
"It's a lot more competition," Jeffery said. "The speed of the game is a lot faster. You just go out and keep on competing and just work hard."

Spelling Bee hopefuls to face new challenge
By JOSEPH WHITE
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — What does it all mean?
That's the question facing spelling whizzes across the country, who learned Tuesday that they will have to know the definitions of some of the those tough words they've been memorizing in the dictionary. For the first time, multiple-choice vocabulary tests will be added to the annual Scripps National Spelling Bee.
"Changes are not a surprise, but these changes are massive," said Mirle Shivashankar, whose daughter, 11-year-old Vanya, is among the favorites after finishing tied for 10th last year. "It came as a shocker. … We're going to have to change the way we prepare a little bit."
The changes will make it easier to nail down the nine to 12 competitors who make it to the final round, which will look the same as it has for years to prime-time TV viewers, with spellers taking turns until only the champion has avoided the familiar doomsday bell.
The changes do add a wrinkle to the televised semifinals, however, as even the best onstage spellers could find themselves eliminated from the finals if they perform poorly on the multiple-choice test.
"I'm on an email group and we talk about spelling, and a lot of the returning spellers were really, like, shocked, and they were surprised about the change that's happened," Vanya Shivashankar said. "But it's going to be really cool and fun to see how the bee will be because it will be spelling and vocabulary."
Executive Director Paige Kimble said the changes were driven by the desire to reinforce the competition's purpose — to encourage students to improve their spelling and broaden their knowledge of the language.
"What we know with the championship-level spellers is that they think of their achievement in terms of spelling and vocabulary being two sides of the same coin," Kimble said.
Vocabulary has been a regular part of the bee during its 87-year history, but it's always been the spellers asking for the definition to help them spell the word.
Now the tables will be turned, with the spellers taking a computer test that looks like something from the SAT. A sample question provided by the Spelling Bee reads as follows:
"Something described as refulgent is: a) tending to move toward one point, b) demanding immediate action, c) rising from an inferior state, d) giving out a bright light."
The correct answer is d.
The vocabulary tests will take place in private rooms and will not be part of the television broadcasts, but they will count for 50 percent of the point totals that determine the semifinalists and finalists.
"In the long run I think it's a change for the better because it tests spellers' all-around knowledge of the word as opposed to just the spelling of the word," said 13-year-old Arvind Mahankali, also one of the favorites after finishing third the past two years.
But what about right now? Arvind and the rest of the 281 spellers in this year's bee now have less than two months to change their study habits ahead of the May 28-30 competition near Washington.
"I'm just going to review all the words for their meanings one more time, if I have enough time," Arvind said. "But it's going to be a little difficult to adjust to this right now."
Shivashankar, who coached daughter Kavya to the 2009 title and now coaches Vanya, said he thinks there's a good purpose behind the changes, but he wishes they had been announced at the start of the school year.
While Shivashankar was concerned about the anxiety the changes could add, his daughter already sounded ready to tackle the challenge.
"We're just going to try to do our best and understand the words more," Vanya said. "Before we were studying the roots, and now we're using the root to understand what it means, which we kind of did before, but we have to spend more time on each word, understanding every single part of it."
While the finals format remains unchanged, the semifinals will have a different payoff. Spellers will continue to be eliminated if they misspell on stage, but there will be only two rounds. The results of those rounds will be combined with the computerized spelling and vocabulary tests to select the finalists.
The issue of determining the number of finalists has been problematic in the past because of the need to fit the bee into its allotted broadcast slot. Parents and spellers were upset in 2010 when officials abruptly halted the semifinals in the middle of a round because spellers were being eliminated too quickly.
The bee, working with its television partners, usually prefers to have nine to 12 spellers in the finals. That will be easier to accomplish now because the bee can take the spellers with the most points, with wiggle room to account for ties.
"Previously, we just knew that we were going to spell until we had a reasonable number of children to bring into the finals," Kimble said. "Now we have some definition around how that happens."
Kimble said she's open to the idea of having the vocabulary test take place onstage in future bees, but she wants to try the computer format first and see how it works.
The national bee waited until all the regional bees were completed to make the announcement so that everyone would start on equal footing. The national bee will supply materials to help local bees introduce a vocabulary test next year, Kimble said.
"In the long run, it's pretty good, right?" said Srinivas Mahankali, Arvind's father. "But in the short-term for the competitors right now, I think it's a little more complicating, definitely."

Ask the expert: How do I teach my toddler to be confident in life?
Advice from the clinical psychologist and parenting expert on how to give your child confidence and on how to get a teenager to treat you with respect.
Q. We have a little boy who is 21-months-old. His first year was tough as he was 'colicky' and seemed to be always crying. However, my biggest fear for him is that he will be like I was, as a child, and have poor confidence and self-esteem. How can I help him to become a confident and happy person? Will he pick up on my lack of self-esteem and mirror it? His daddy is a fairly confident person, and I try to hide my lack of confidence. I intend to encourage him to get involved in sport as soon as he is old enough, as GAA is big in our area.
David replies: I think it is natural for us, as parents, to worry that our children may mirror any negative aspects of ourselves that we perceive. However, our children are not destined to be, simply, replicas of ourselves.That said, our children do learn lots about the world and how to behave in the world from observing us. So, if they see us being confident, and acting confidently, then they could learn to do the same themselves.
So, one way to help your son build up his self-esteem and self-confidence is to role model confidence and assertiveness yourself.
You seem to suggest, in your query, that you still feel unconfident, but that you try to mask it or hide it. If so, then do focus on building your own self-esteem, as high self-esteem tends to lead to greater confidence.
No more than with a child, your self-esteem can be considered in terms of your sense of lovability and your sense of capability.
Lovability refers to your beliefs that you are accepted by others, that they value you for your personality, that they like you and want to spend time with you.
Capability refers to your beliefs about how able you are to achieve things and how others value what you can do. Your sense of capability includes your sense that you are needed and that others recognise your skills and talents.
Sometimes we have a habit of getting stuck with rigid or inflexible attitudes. So when we find ourselves saying things like "I should…" or "I must…" the chances are we are setting unreasonable or inflexible standards for ourselves. Naturally, if we then fail to meet those standards we feel worse about ourselves.
Another way we can keep our own confidence and self-esteem low is with self-deprecation. So be careful not to put yourself down, even jokingly. If you are negative about yourself then it is harder for others to be positive about you.
You might also like to ensure that you take on board and accept any positive feedback that comes your way. If you don't feel that confident in yourself, you may also have a tendency to reject any compliments. Compliments boost our sense of self, so do gratefully accept them.
You will know where you stand with regard to these different aspects. Some may, and some may not, be issues for you. You might find that talking with a good counsellor or therapist can get you on track for dealing with your own self-esteem or confidence issues that you find to be problematic.
Aside from role-modelling a more confident and self-assured you, when it comes to dealing with your son, I think you will find that if you adopt a kind but firm approach to parenting him, that you will give him the skills and experiences to grow into a confident and balanced boy.
The balance between having high expectations of our children, but recognising that we need to be warm and understanding at the same time, is what gives children that sense of a strong, nurturing, base from which they can feel secure and able to explore their world.
Having clear rules, and limits, for small children creates a predictable security for them. Add in kindness, caring and understanding, and you give your child the right mix of experience that creates a fertile environment within which they can grow and develop confidently.
There is an irony in the fact that your son needs you to have the confidence to believe in him, and to believe in your own ability to be the best kind of parent for him.
So, work on your own confidence and it will rub off, positively, on your son.
My 15-year-old son is lazy, rude and dismissive. What can I do to get him to treat me with respect?
Q. What am I going to do with my 15-year-old son? His attitude and behaviour towards me is shocking. He is just rude and dismissive all the time. He ignores me if I try to talk to him, or even text him, about anything, and he won't do a tap around the house, no matter how many times I ask. He sits around all day, on his phone, if he isn't with his friends, and it's as if I am the unreasonable one if I ask him to help out. His dad keeps telling me to leave him off, that I am nagging him, which just causes rows between us. Are all teenagers like this?
David replies: No, not all teenagers are layabouts, rude and dismissive. But many teenagers are very self-centred and think about little more than themselves, their immediate friends and when their next meal will be available to them.
Adolescence is a very self-focused time in their lives precisely because, developmentally, teenagers are trying to work out their identity and also trying to fit in, or adapt, to their peer environment.
Communication with their parents often falters during adolescence because teenagers are actively seeking out new voices, experiences and attitudes that challenge us and challenge our perspective on life.
That challenge may be expressed as a dismissal of what we say, or a rejection of what we believe. Sometimes the rejection can seem very personal and sometimes may even appear aggressive.
It sounds like, from your query, you feel like your son has rejected you. His rudeness and dismissiveness are, no doubt, hurtful and upsetting. It is very unpleasant to be subjected to this.
However, part of his growing up will be to accept or reject what you stand for and make his own choices about his life. He does need guidance in how to do this, without harming others.
I wonder if you are struggling to find the right way to connect to your son to be able to still guide and direct him, while negotiating his increasing independence and self-direction?
The feedback that you are getting from your husband isn't very helpful. Telling you that you "nag" your son seems just like criticism, with no constructive help about what it is that you say or do that might be unhelpful for your son.
I could imagine that you feel quite defensive and resentful if this is his attitude towards you and your relationship with your son.
Indeed, if he makes these comments to you, in front of your son, then they will have the added effect of undermining your authority, making it even more difficult for you to communicate effectively with your son.
So, tackle your husband on this issue. Get him to explain what it is about the words you use, the behaviours your display, or the tone in your voice, that seems "nagging". Then see if he has any useful suggestions for how better to encourage your son to take some responsibility for his role in the family.
It may be that your husband has some helpful ideas about how to get through to your son, particularly if he feels he has an effective means himself.
You may be able to learn from that. Or, it may become clear that your husband has no better ideas, in which case he needs to learn not to interfere in what you say or do when you are the one directly dealing with your son.
For your own direct communication, think about just building rapport with him, like you might when trying to get to know a new friend. Show the same level of interest in him and his life. Grab the small windows when it might be possible to just chat.
Building up your relationship with him, again, means that when you then have to set limits or insist on certain behaviours he is likely to be more respectful in his responses.
You and his dad still need to be the ones in charge, making the rules and setting the expectations, but you can include him and his opinion more and more.
If he feels he gets his say, then he may be more amenable to help, or to simply be polite, even if he doesn't get his way.

New report questions power of postsecondary credentials in the labor market
Dive Brief:
- A new report from Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce considers the economic worth of postsecondary credentials and also questions whether colleges are doing all they can to communicate that worth to students.
- While collegiate programs of study have exploded in number — quintupling from 410 in 1985 to 2,260 in 2010 — college grads are also expressing "buyer's remorse," feeling as though they didn't have enough information to choose the "right" major for the workplace.
- Access to postsecondary education has also expanded thanks to the internet, which various employers have taken advantage of as a benefit, according to the report.
Dive Insight:
Interest in higher education continues to grow, especially because it remains a key to social mobility. Those with a college education tend to make more money in the long-term. But for employers, that interest provides an opportunity to both provide a benefit to employees and improve the quality of their talent pools.
Some blue-collar employers have noticed their employees' desire to improve their prospects via education, and have offered specialized credentialing programs to help those workers. Access to education also tends to improve retention, which is why those benefits have grown more popular in the retail and hospitality sectors.
More generally, industries that are struggling to fill talent pipelines have considered the power of credentialing and the prestige it can grant. Industry leaders in construction and manufacturing noted that robust training programs may attract young talent and change the image of those industries.

Lahore, Nov.28 (ANI): Former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has called for an investigation against all the beneficiaries of the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) and also against those who had misappropriated public funds.
Interacting with media persons on the sidelines of function here, Sharif urged the investigating agencies to probe the role of those persons who have made huge money by siphoning off public assets.
"Those who have got their loans written off are big criminals too. The investigations must not remain limited to NRO beneficiaries," The Dawn quoted Sharif said.
Sharif said all those whose names were in the NRO beneficiaries list should resign from office immediately like former bureaucrat Saeed Mahdi.
Mahdi had resigned as a special adviser to Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif after his name appeared in the list of NRO beneficiaries.
Commenting on the recently announced special Balochistan package, the Pakistan Muslaim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief said the government should take more measures to pacify the Baloch people and create a consensus on their suggestions.
"The government should step forward to take them (Baloch people) into confidence and incorporate their concerns and demands in the document for creating a consensus," Sharif said.
Responding a question, he said there was not much difference in the present government and former President General Pervez Musharraf's autocratic regime.
"When I see any change in the situation, I will myself let the people know of it," Sharif said. (ANI)

KEY STAGE 3 National Curriculum History
How and why did Britain change between 1750 and 1900?
The Three Main Woollen Areas
Everyone had to wear clothes so plenty of cloth was needed. The Domestic System had operated for hundreds of years using small, hand operated machines. However, the amount of cloth produced in the Domestic System was limited. By 1700, there were some challenges to the woollen industry as more cotton fibres arrived from America and the Far East.
Britain's main industry was sheep farming.
A clothier [wool tradesman] buys the wool.
Wool was sheared from sheep, washed and clean.
The Domestic
The West Riding of Yorkshire
The wool was taken to the homes of local villagers.
After the cloth was dried, it was dyed in different colours.
East Anglia
The South West
Men would weave the yarn into cloth using a hand loom.
Children carded the wool and women would then spin it into a yarn.
The cloth would be bleached in sour milk. This was called fulling.
Key Stage 3 History Britain 1750-1900 Interactive
Child Labour
Factory Conditions
Many of the early textile factories employed large numbers of children. This was not surprising as children had always worked in the Domestic System. Some of the factory children were apprentices. These children were often orphans, who were sent to the factories from the large towns. Factory owners built houses for them near the factory. Other children came form the local area.
Windows were small so there was little ventilation. Factories were very hot in the Summer.
Children were sometimes hit with a strap to make them work faster.
Scavengers had to pick up the loose cotton from under the machinery. This was extremely dangerous as the children were expected to carry out the task while the machine was still working.
The overseer's job was to make sure workers worked at full pace all the time.
The constant noise from the machines damaged hearing.
Machinery was not always fenced off and workers would be exposed to the moving parts while they worked.
Two tired children. They worked very long hours.

A Bell Pit was where a shallow shaft was sunk and then dug around until it resembled a bell in shape.
An Adit Mine
Coal Mining
There had been coalmines in Britain since Roman times but production was small and mainly for domestic use. Miners used two main methods of mining the coal: Bell Pits and Adit Mines. By 1800, the demand for coal increased. Mine owners had to find better ways of extracting more coal.
The Adit Mine was used where the coal seam was near the surface of the ground.
Packhorses to carry coal away

Road Building
John Macadam
Surface camber allowed water to drain off.
John Macadam introduced a cambered watertight surface of broken small stones or gravel rammed hard to prevent disintegration by frost. Macadam's roads needed less foundation than Telford's roads and therefore were widely used by Turnpike Trusts.
Layer of gravel.
John Macadam was born in Scotland and is probably the best known of the all the road engineers. His roads made quicker and more comfortable stage-coach journeys possible.
Parallel drainage ditches.
Broken stones, 8 inch layer.

Hounded #1: Page 26
Here it is, the final page of Issue #1 of Hounded. The whole issue is available right here on Crooked Abe – and soon we will be printing a first edition issue. The first edition printing will be a limited run – and we will find a way to make them available here, so keep an eye on the site!
Before we do that, we are making a final pass through the comic. Our colorist, Megan, joined us part way through the issue, and she has been working to go back through the early pages and redo the colors. (As I'm writing this, she has already redone 7-10, with 1-6 coming soon) Nathan has been going through and made some very keen observations about the story, which I am working to incorporate – so there will be some little story adjustments. (No major changes – the artwork is already done – but ways to provide a bit more detail about the world, and introducing Laurell just a little earlier in the issue) Meanwhile, Ryan is starting to work on the future. (More on that in a second.)
For me, it is incredibly reassuring to have found this group. We are all working for the future, but investing the time to prove ourselves. There is no such thing as an overnight success. (And before you start tossing out examples; really look at their history. Everyone had to learn their skills, practice their skills, do smaller jobs and work their way up to the bigger jobs.) You have to make choices along the way. If it is what you want to do – then you have to be willing to do it, just for the love of doing it. Work your craft, whatever it may be.
As the writer of both Fixer and Hounded, I have spent a lot of time exploring this world. I've planned the crossover moments (of which, this page is an important one) and have plans for the future. Trust me, I am already writing the next issue, the next movie – and even more. Currently, I am working on a big battle scene – but no spoilers.
As a team, we will undoubtedly return to Hounded, but for now we are going to take a short hiatus. When Issue #1 is 100% finished, we are going to take a step back from this story. ('But why?', you ask.) We have so many stories we want to tell as a team, that for a time, we are going to shift focus into a new world. Nathan has been working to develop another story (not related to Fixer / Hounded), but I've already had the chance to look at the script, and a lot of the background development he has done. And let me tell you; it's good. Ryan has started doing character sketches and designing the world.
The core concept for the new series: 'The Trenches' - A mechanic must hone the abilities he manifests from a nuclear terrorist attack in order to stop the ring of human and drug trafficking started by his father's corrupt megacorp.
I can't wait to see this world come to life!
So, Hounded will return – and the team at Crooked Abe isn't going anywhere. We are creators, writers, artists, filmmakers, and are dedicated to continuing to bring you new material. We will still be working to bring you new stories, new shorts, new features, and of course; new comics.
Crooked Abe: Productions, with a twist.
From all of us here at Crooked Abe; thank you for checking out Hounded! And stay with us!
This is just the beginning.

Cambodia - Temples, Books, Films and ruminations...by Andy Brouwer
Labels: Mekong Discovery Trail
Hi, Andy
Nice pictures, I guess, kids have a good time when you're around! This is off-topic, but I wd like to ask you, pls, recommend me the best (to yr knowledge) guidebook on Khmer temples located in Thailand. Thank you very much, and good luck in your travels. -
Anna Morley
Hi Anna,
the people and especially the children of Cambodia are one of its greatest treasures, without a doubt. The welcome and wonderful interactions I've enjoyed all over the country has fueled my passion for all things Cambodian for many many years.
The Michael Freeman book on Khmer Temples in Thailand and Laos (River Books 1996) is the best guidebook that can be easily carried around, in my opinion. Its been out a while now but the temples don't move do they!
See this webpage:
I'm jealous if you do go and visit them as they have been on my to-do list for many years.
Dear Andy,
thanks a lot for the tips. I'll start saving some to buy Freeman's book, which is quite expensive - $399 and a used one (!), was the cheapest offer I've found on the net!!! I've checked the webpage you appointed me, and much to my astonishment found you're married - I don't know why, but always thought you were single, as befits a temple-hunter and adventurer like you!!! All the best, Anna
wow that price for the book is madness - you gotta keep looking and try some 2nd hand book shops. Its got to be available at a cost of a few dollars if you can track it down. Damn it, I'll send you my copy (on loan) than let you pay that much....well, that's a little hasty Andy, let me rethink that!
At the time of the webpage I was married (we never did make that trip to Isaan) though when I came to live in Cambodia a couple of years ago, my old life in the UK came to a halt.

UK spearheads airlift to Albania
The UK Government says refugees must eventually go home
The UK is spearheading aid efforts into Albania as aid workers in the Balkans struggle to cope with the tens of thousands of refugees fleeing Kosovo.
The RAF will also help airlift supplies from UNHCR warehouses elsewhere in Europe.
There will also be a donation of Ł500,000 to the Red Cross.
However, ministers insisted that refugees would not be brought to the UK because that would only be "giving in" to the so-called ethnic cleansing of the Kosovo.
But Italy and Switzerland have said they are preparing for an extra influx of refugees.
Up to 250,000 people have flooded into Albania, Macedonia and Montenegro which have called for aid for the refugees to be sent as soon as possible.
Worldwide help
Japan is sending money and trucks and Greece is offering mobile hospitals.
The World Food Programme is taking care of supplying food, while non-governmental organisations are supplying medical aid.
More money needed
But more assistance is still desperately needed after a poor response to a the UNHCR's January appeal for donations from international governments.
"We can't manufacture aid out of thin air - we really need the governments' help," said a UNHCR spokeswoman.
The most difficult aspect of supplying aid was trying to anticipate the movements of the refugees in order to get supplies to them as quickly as possible.
"It's a brutal climate out there, and the longer it takes to get accommodation sorted, the more they suffer," she said.

Don't Forget Your Personal Terrain!
File this lovely device under "Products I won't be reviewing'- The Peek-a-Bu Pube Mirror because every "girl" wants to 'command her personal terrain'. Now I am all for being well-groomed at all times of the year "down there". And if your man needs some help with his back hair and manscaping then maybe the Peek-a Bu mirror is for you. But they lost me in the pitch with all their talk about personal terrain, checking my secretions and the descriptions used for some of the 'hot, summer styles' I could craft and style my nether regions into.
"In ancient art, a rectangle symbolizes perfection. Nobody is perfect, but down there is one place you can come close. " Wow, we're really getting deep and philisophical now and all in the name of pube grooming.
There are others too like The Strap- Strong and Sexy- "This bold design will have your partner strapped in and ready to go." I think I just threw up in my mouth and the writer died a little inside after writing the copy.
Sorry, Peeka-bu Mirror but you lost me in your pitch when you told me this device "fufills a long-awaited need."
