Tukur tasks governors on performance
PDP National Chairman, Dr Bamanga Tukur
| credits:
National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Dr. Bamanga Tukur, has called on governors to surpass the achievements of their predecessors.
Tukur said this when he led the the PDP National Working Committee on a courtesy visit to Kwara State Governor Abdulfataih Ahmed in Abuja on Friday.
He said good performance of the governors was the only way the country could develop to the satisfaction of the electorate.
Tukur said, "Every father wants his child to achieve more than what he achieved and every child also aspires to be greater than the father.
"We have come to do better than the previous team. We expect every governor to do better than his predecessor as that is how the country will improve and grow."
He praised Ahmed for focusing on agriculture.
The governor said, "There is no substitute for experience.
"We are happy to identify with you. We thank God for making you the chairman of the party.
"We are happy we are part of the PDP. The PDP has done very well in the last years given the fact that it is a party hurriedly put together.
"From 1999 till date, the PDP has done well given where the country is coming from. Against all odds, we are moving forward."
On the security challenges facing the country, Ahmed said it was not peculiar to Nigeria.
He also said the state government was partnering all security agencies to check crime in the state.

NVIDIA Fluids technology Demo
Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 08/13/2008 07:40 AM [ 0 comment(s) ]
The primary purpose of the NVIDIAPhysX technology Fluid Demo is to illustrate Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). The demo contains two different scenes, the Outdoor and the Logo Scene.
Outdoor Scene
This scene showcases SPH fluid flooding an outdoor area. As soon as the demo is started, a flood occurs and interacts with a stack of rigid bodies. Switch from dark water to clear water, to oil, or just show the real nature of fluids: spheres.
Logo Scene
The Logo Scene showcases SPH fluid simulation in an enclosed environment.

The Sicily region
For the holidays, for the winter, as a retirement or second home - Castellammare of the Gulf with its many options and its privileged location is the ideal location. The town of about 15,000 inhabitants in north-western Sicily is the gateway between land and sea. Castellammare is located in the center of a magnificent Gulf and at the foot of a gently sloping hill to the sea. Once an important trading center of the ancient Segesta to Castellammare del Golfo has evolved into a charming harbor town, where in the morning at the pier, fishermen sell their catch. The Arabic-Norman castle, symbol of the city, is located on a spit of land protruding into the sea.
In the province of Trapani, with its 24 municipalities are some of the most gorgeous beaches in Sicily as San Vito lo Capo, Macari, Scopello and Castellammare del Golfo. From a historical perspective than the current Arab HIGHEST province of Sicily region is particularly interesting. On the salt flats upstream Mozia are the remains of one of the most important Phoenician, Punic cities in Sicily. Selinunte is one with the temple and the ancient seaside city of the largest archaeological site in Europe. The temple of Segesta, built by the Elymians, is considered one of the best preserved in the world. On display are a Doric temple, a Greek theater, held in the summer months in the performances and concerts from classical to pop. Deserve special attention in addition to the cities of Trapani Marsala, Marsala, Mazara del Vallo, Castelvetrano, Castellammare del Golfo and Scopello.
Whether sun, beach lovers, divers, hikers, lovers of culture or recreation seeker - the picturesque town has every season has its charms. Winters are mild, summers hot. In the east of the golden sandy beach and to the west of the rocky coastline is endowed with bays. From April to November can be there in the turquoise clear Tyrrhenian Sea swim or hire a boat to explore the coast from the water - for example, the Riserva dello Zingaro, Sicily's first nature reserve. In the many small coves where you can drop anchor at a safe distance to the land and snorkeling in the crystal clear water to swim or dive. The nature reserve is primarily for hikers paradise. Multiple paths of different length lead past untouched flora and fauna. Ever just the winter months are ideal to conquer the area around the Gulf migratory.
Relaxation of tourists is also found in one of the two spas near Castellammare. After a bath in the almost 40-degree warm Terme di Gorga or Terme Segestane you feel like a new person. The sulphurous water is good for a variety of ailments such as rheumatism, and skin diseases such as acne and eczema.

One wrong turn forever changed the life of a U.S. Marine. Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi was in the process of moving to San Diego when he found himself in Mexico surrounded by armed soldiers. Then he found himself in prison.
Sgt Tahmooressi was driving a truck loaded with all of his possessions, including a few guns, when he crossed the border. Before he could get back on the right track the Mexican military quickly surrounded him. He declared that he had the weapons and he went to jail.
He's been there since March 31st and his mother, Jill Tahmooressi, is spearheading a push to bring him home. That effort brought her to Omaha Friday night where she told those assembled for a rally, "God couldn't have picked a better warrior than Andrew, a Marine. The saying is that a Marine is the first one in, that God sends them in, you break in, get bloody and bruised but it makes it easier for the folks coming in from behind."
It was an emotional night for a Florida mother on the road here in the heartland.
"At the border in California he made one wrong turn and that ramp led him straight into Mexico," she said. "There was no way to turn around that night. There was no sign that night.
"That first Mexican agent was going to escort him back. He was going to flag over an escort vehicle but then the military came on board and now we know what happened. He was arrested and he is now looking at serving his fifth month in a Mexican jail."
That's what brought the group to Memorial Park - a remembrance of those who've come before us to fight for our country.
"So when people tell you it is a political issue you look them in the face and say nope, this is a veterans' issue."
Using support organized with the help of Congressman Lee Terry, the group hopes to bring awareness of Sgt Tahmooressi's plight to bring him safely home.
"It is surreal but it is reality for us," she said. "It has been an agonizing torturous experience. Andrew describes his experience as worse than his two combat tours in Afghanistan if that is imaginable."
There is now a sign on that stretch of road into Mexico where Sgt. Tahmooressi made his fateful turn. It warns drivers to turn around.
Jill vows to fight for her son but the legal fees are stacking up. If you'd like to help, click here to visit the Andrew Freedom Fund Web page.

Falcons win with 1 second left
Updated On: Oct 14 2012 07:14:33 PM CDT
Matt Bryant booted a 55-yard field goal with one second left as Atlanta rallied to improve to 6-0 for the first time in franchise history.
Asante Samuel's 79-yard interception return for a touchdown with 2:40 left gave Atlanta the lead, but Oakland (1-4) answered with an eight-play, 80-yard drive capped by Darren McFadden's 2-yard touchdown run to tie it with 40 seconds left in regulation. Matt Ryan completed 5 of 6 passes and the Falcons made good use of two timeouts to set up Bryant's winning kick.
Atlanta again gave up big chunks of yardage but was saved by three turnovers - it has 17 takeaways this season. The Falcons (6-0) needed a lift from their defense after a subpar offensive effort. Ryan threw three interceptions in the first half - after throwing just three through the first five games - and Atlanta managed just 286 total yards.
Oakland (1-4) got a big game from Carson Palmer, who was 23-of-33 for 353 yards and a touchdown. But Samuel jumped in front of a pass intended for Denarius Moore and raced up the sideline, making a move to get past Palmer at the 20 and strolling in for the winning score.
Bryant missed from 43 yards in the first quarter, his first miss of the season after making his first 10 field goal attempts, but he redeemed himself with three field goals in the second half, including the game-winner that hooked inside the left upright. Four of the Falcons' six wins have come by a touchdown or less.
GAME NOTEBOOK: The Raiders didn't have an interception in their first four games but picked off Ryan three times in the first half. … Ryan has thrown at least one touchdown pass in 21 consecutive games, the third-longest active streak in the NFL. … Atlanta's John Abraham's had three sacks, his eighth career game with three or more.

After reaching platinum with her booty anthem 'Anaconda,' Nicki Minaj is ready to deliver her next sure-fire hit single called 'Only.' On Sunday (Oct. 26), the Queen Barbz unveiled the cover art to the new song, which also features Drake, Lil Wayne and Chris Brown.
It feels like common sense: of course the horror movie released a week before Halloween is going to win the weekend war at the box office over the action movie. And yet, most horror movies continue to get released as far away from the season of the witch as possible. Can the recent success of 'Annabelle' and this weekend's 'Ouija' change that?
A day after celebrating his 28th birthday, Drake gifts fans a wonderful present -- new music! The Toronto rapper delivered three new songs: '6 God,' 'Heat of the Moment' and the previously leaked track, 'How 'Bout Now.'

Today's designers are solving business problems
Tom Greever talks about the evolution of experience design and the challenges — and opportunities — facing designers today.
It's no secret that design is playing a more prominent role within many organizations. Designers are becoming fundamentally linked to the development and success of products and services versus their more historical role polishing the appearance of those products and services. I recently sat down with Tom Greever, UX Director at Bitovi, to talk about the evolution of UX design, challenges that design professionals face today, and some of the keys to the success of the modern UX designer. Greever describes the evolution:
"Traditionally, the only problem we were trying to solve was to make something look better. It was a problem of just aesthetics, but now our designs have to solve for things like ease of use, or conversion, or user engagement. We're solving business problems. We're helping businesses achieve their goals through design, and if we can't do that, then our designs aren't any good. We're not creating the right experience. They're not providing value."
The science of moving dots: the O'Reilly Data Show Podcast
Rajiv Maheswaran talks about the tools and techniques required to analyze new kinds of sports data.
Editor's note: you can subscribe to the O'Reilly Data Show Podcast through SoundCloud or through our RSS feed.
Many data scientists are comfortable working with structured operational data and unstructured text. Newer techniques like deep learning have opened up data types like images, video, and audio.
Other common data sources are garnering attention. With the rise of mobile phones equipped with GPS, I'm meeting many more data scientists at start-ups and large companies who specialize in spatio-temporal pattern recognition. Analyzing "moving dots" requires specialized tools and techniques. A few months ago, I sat down with Rajiv Maheswaran founder and CEO of Second Spectrum, a company that applies analytics to sports tracking data. Maheswaran talked about this new kind of data and the challenge of finding patterns:
"It's interesting because it's a new type of data problem. Everybody knows that big data machine learning has done a lot of stuff in structured data, in photos, in translation for language, but moving dots is a very new kind of data where you haven't figured out the right feature set to be able to find patterns from. There's no language of moving dots, at least not that computers understand. People understand it very well, but there's no computational language of moving dots that are interacting. We wanted to build that up, mostly because data about moving dots is very, very new. It's only in the last five years, between phones and GPS and new tracking technologies, that moving data has actually emerged."
Uber is breaking bad
Uber has built a great service. Why do they feel the need to use dirty tricks to succeed?
Tim O'Reilly has said that Uber is an example of designing for how the world ought to be. Their app works well, their cars are clean, their drivers are pleasant, and they usually arrive quickly. But more goes into the experience of a company than just an app. Corporate behavior is also part of the company's design; perhaps not as noticeable as their Android or iPhone app, but a very real part. That's where Uber falls down. They have increasingly been a bad actor, on many counts:
- Coercing their black car (Uber) drivers into driving for the low cost UberX service, which is much less profitable.
- Being disingenuous about the economics of driving for them. Justin Singer does an excellent job of deconstructing their claims. $90,000/year for a 40-hour work week? Think $40K. For a 70-hour work week.
- Badmouthing a competitor (Lyft) that is raising capital. As Fred Wilson says, this practice may be common, but it's unethical and unproductive.
- Predatory ("surge") pricing during peak hours, as much as seven times normal prices.
- Playing fast and loose with drivers' background checks.
- And now one of their senior VPs has suggested researching and exposing the private lives of reporters who criticize them. He's apologized, and said he never meant anything of the sort. Right. It's not what you apologize for that counts; it's not doing stuff you need to apologize for in the first place.
I could go on (advertising hot female drivers, abuses of their privacy policy, and more), but I won't. You get the point. This is #GamerGate, but with a $17 billion valuation behind it. Read more…
Safari for Schools: Free O'Reilly material for K-12
Safari is offering O'Reilly books and videos for free to every K-12 student and teacher in the U.S.
This past February, Tim O'Reilly brought me into an email thread with the White House with a straightforward but urgent request — could Safari provide the delivery mechanism to make all of O'Reilly Media's titles available to every K–12 student in America? Commitments to the President's "ConnectED" program were lined up from a number of software, hardware, and networking companies, but connected devices would be much more useful with content included. We're proud that we were able to say yes to something so important — and on such short notice.
It made sense for Safari to deliver on O'Reilly's commitment, as our business is providing online access to thousands of the best books and training courses to companies and organizations of all sizes. But as we started unpacking the particulars, we uncovered more complexity than we expected. For example, there are tens of thousands of school districts across the country, each with their own IT infrastructure. It simply wouldn't scale if providing access to every student also meant working directly with every school or district. Compliance with a set of regulations designed to protect children's privacy (known as COPPA) meant that we couldn't simply open up our standard platform to students.
Constraints can be wonderful in focusing attention, and fortunately the outstanding team at Safari was up for the challenge. By September 1, we had quietly opened up a beta site where any high school student could apply for access to the full collection of O'Reilly books and videos.
In conjunction with today's White House event promoting "Future Ready Schools," I'm thrilled to say that we have delivered on the pledge to make the full catalog of O'Reilly books and videos available for free to any K–12 student in America, more than a month ahead of our original January 2015 promise.
The intersection of data and design is equal parts art and science
Data-informed design is a framework to hone understanding of customer behavior and align teams with larger business goals.
Editor's note: this is an excerpt from our forthcoming book Designing with Data; it is part of a free curated collection of chapters from the O'Reilly Design library — download a free copy of the Experience Design ebook here.The phrase "data driven" has long been part of buzzword-bingo card sets. It's been heard in the halls of the web analytics conference eMetrics for more than a decade, with countless sessions aimed at teaching audience members how to turn their organizations into data-driven businesses.
When spoken of in a positive light, the phrase data driven conjures visions of organizations with endless streams of silver-bullet reports — you know the ones: they're generally entitled something to the effect of "This Chart Will Help Us Fix Everything" and show how a surprise change can lead to a quadrillion increase in revenue along with world peace.
When spoken of in a negative light, the term is thrown around as a descriptor of Orwellian organizations with panopticon-level data collection methods, with management imprisoned by relentless reporting, leaving no room for real innovation.
Evan Williams, founder of Blogger, Twitter, and Medium, made an apt comment about being data driven:
I see this mentality that I think is common, especially in Silicon Valley with engineer-driven start-ups who think they can test their way to success. They don't acknowledge the dip. And with really hard problems, you don't see market success right away. You have to be willing to go through the dark forest and believe that there's something down there worth fighting the dragons for, because if you don't, you'll never do anything good. I think it's kind of problematic how data-driven some companies are today, as crazy as that sounds."

FRIDAY, Feb. 4 (HealthDay News) -- Baked goods made from hydrolyzed wheat flour and manufactured with sourdough lactobacilli and fungal proteases do not appear toxic to patients with celiac disease, according to a study published in the January issue of Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology.
Luigi Greco, M.D., from the University of Naples in Italy, and colleagues evaluated the safety of daily administration of baked goods made from this hydrolyzed form of wheat flour to patients with celiac disease. Thirteen patients were randomly assigned to a 60-day trial of either 200 g per day of natural flour baked goods (NFBG), extensively hydrolyzed flour baked goods (S1BG), or fully hydrolyzed baked goods (S2BG).
The researchers found that two of the six patients who consumed NFBG had to stop the study because of their symptoms, and all six had increased levels of anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibodies and small bowel deterioration. The two patients who ate the S1BG goods had no complaints but they did develop subtotal atrophy. The five patients who ate S2BG also had no complaints; their levels of anti-tTG antibodies did not increase, and there was no modification of the small intestinal mucosa observed.
"In conclusion, the findings of this study and the above considerations provide the rationale for exploring therapies that could reduce the toxicity of gluten for celiac disease patients beyond the standard gluten-free diet," the authors write.

Are Landscape Architects & Engineers Frenemies?
Back in Fall 2011, the Ontario Association of Landscape Architect's publication, Ground Magazine (page 8), published an article titled "Best Friends/Worst Enemies: Landscape Architects and Engineers," by Adam Nicklin and Victoria Taylor. This article started an insightful discussion on the similarities and differences between landscape architects and engineers. Some of the essential differences they point out are:
|Landscape Architects
|- Very pragmatic
- Good at building things and making something function
|- Adept at presenting ideas and capturing the imagination of someone quickly
- Good at telling a simple story about how the thing works and comparing it to other options
|Large report you have to really sift through to get the gist
|Cuts to the chase
|Typical approach
|Compartmentalized: focused on fixing the problem at hand
|Holistic: look at the whole picture, what is the best overall solution looking at the big picture; eg look at consequences of potential design decisions on social and environmental context
|Willingness to try new approaches
|Often want to do the same proven things over and over
|Often want to do something different
|Higher than landscape architect
|Lower than engineer
Personally, I have found these differences become especially stark when it comes to designing trees as stormwater infrastructure. Yet while these differences can indeed make it frustrating for the two disciplines to work together, designing trees as stormwater infrastructure is a great example of why we also need each other. Successful design of trees as stormwater infrastructure requires a collaborative, holistic approach that can satisfy the needs of both specialties.
Treating stormwater with pipes alone is the way "it was always done" in the past – until it became apparent that this approach was (a) not financially feasible anymore, (b) not totally solving the problems the pipes were intended to solve, and (c) that using pipes alone was actually creating other problems off-site. As stormwater treatment approaches have evolved over time, more and more holistic approaches are being used to treat stormwater, and it is becoming more and more valuable to look at the big picture.
Here are a few examples of the big picture, holistic thinking I believe we need to successfully design trees for stormwater:
• Designing tree spaces that allow trees to grow large in challenging urban environments, requires looking at the tree's whole environment: e.g. climate and microclimate, utilities, soil quality, soil biology, soil volume, human uses around trees, wildlife impacts, etc.
• Evaluating the true costs and benefits of using large trees as green infrastructure, requires understanding the city's physical/structural, social, climatic, hydrological, and ecological context, as well as its energy use patterns, etc.
• Evaluating hydrologic impacts/benefits of using trees as green infrastructure requires understanding tree biology, soil, tree growing conditions, context within watershed, and how the tree and its environment change over time, etc.
All sound very complex? That's where landscape architects' skills to cut to the chase and clearly, concisely compare different options come in really handy. And, in order to make sure it will all work, we need the problem solving, analytical skills of engineers.
Of course, I know plenty of engineers who are great communicators and love to think out of the box, as well as landscape architects who are good problem solvers with analytical minds. Stereotypes are just stereotypes. But, no matter how often or seldom these stereotypes really apply, collaborative skill sets will be invaluable for projects that use trees as stormwater infrastructure. And in many cases we will need more than just landscape architects and engineers.

Andrew Lemer says:
With friends like these, who needs enemies? Yes, stereotypes are just stereotypes and collaborative skills are always invaluable. What is the point of perpetuating the stereotyping, even if initially perpetrated by others? It is a disservice to both landscape architects and engineers. Successful design of stormwater management--and most other urban subsystems--requires understanding of not only sciences such as hydrology, chemistry, and biology, but also of how the results of construction, use, and maintenance (or lack thereof) may diverge from the designer's intent. The biology of big trees and the economics of giving over urban space to a grove are only part of the complexity. "Cutting to the chase" without a solid understanding that "it will all work" is simplistic and poor practice in any profession.
"It is a common sight everywhere to see old things get replaced with new ones. It not only makes the place much more pleasant to the eyes physically, but it also benefits people in terms of providing amenities and advanced facilities. It is just how things are to keep up with the progression and advancement of life. However, since the removal of I-10 is not going to bring only benefits, but also ..."
"Now that winter is coming, it is good to have a solid plan to avoid longer electricity outages. I know that this is a constant issue, especially with energy storage, but I have seen more and more countries adapting to solar energy without having to go thru energy storage. I just hope to have a more solid and concrete plan on this laid out in the future. "
"History never fails to amaze me by its interesting stories regardless of the location where it took place. It is always a brand new story each time we read or hear about a particular place and stories of its origin. That is why I treasure all the history books I have down in the attic securely kept ..."

I'm also looking for some connections for Delgado's of Los Angeles, California. I made previous post a couple of years ago, but I had no responses.
My grandmother was Betty "Rita," Delgado b. 1927 in Los Angeles. Her father was Luis Delgado, d. 1947, and Mother was Fermina "Caldar" (Calderon ?) Delgado, d. 1938, [Fermina's mother was Feliciana Calderon of Zacatecas].
On Fermina C. Delgado's death certificate is has Antonis or Antone Delgado as an informant [probably Betty Delgado's uncle who she called Anthony]
On Luis Delgado's death cerificate is has Juanita Barrera as an informant and I believe that she is also my grandmother aunt Juanita Delgado Barrera
All of my grandmother's sibblings were born in Los Angeles, California, and lived on Victorine Avenue, and I think Mercury Str. Her mother was Louise Mary Delgado, aka Louise Mary Amador. My grandmother had 3 other sibblings; Robert Amador, Patty (patricia), and Martha. I'm not sure of their last names. Maybe Delgado or Amador. I believe Patricia married someone with a last name like "Pheonix".
Grandma also had a daughter that she gave up for adoption, and she was born I think around 1948 in Long Beach, California, and her name on the birth cert is Eileen Renee Delgado.

"Free as a bird." It's an expression many paragliders use.
"Man has been dreaming about flying and paragliding is as close as you can get to flying with the birds," Dan Staniaszek said just before takeoff in Warren County, New Jersey.
He's part of Pennsylvania Paragliding, a Northampton County based high flying business.
"It's the most incredible thing. It's beautiful you can go anywhere." Pilot Juan Arias said.
Friday, WFMZ's Bo Koltnow was in Harmony New Jersey where Pennsylvania Paragliding owner Terry Bono put him through an introductory flight school.
"These are your brindles, they are going to make you attached to a toe rig," he told Bo as Bo was sitting in the harness.
A morphed motorcycle gives the initial pull. Because we are not on a cliff it gets the flyers off the ground.
"If you fly off a mountain there's trees, turbulence. I can control how high you get here," Bono said.
After some, often times, awkward practice, it was time to get off the ground. To maximize height Bo hooked up with Arias for a tandem run.
"After a bit of a rocky start, we quickly took off, and settled in to an amazing view.
When you are 2000 feet up the key is to follow the birds. You want to find the thermal air that lifts you higher and higher.
"We can fly as a bird, we can go anywhere, we can climb and go all the way to the clouds no problem," Arias said.
Flights can last several hours and cover hundreds of miles. Bono says it's not tough and due to the good thermal winds, this is the best time of year to spread your wings.
"Birds allow you to fly with them, it's an honor," he said

Pakistan's Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry today formed a five-judge bench to take up an application filed by the government that asks the Supreme Court to spell out the President's role in the appointment of judges.
Earlier in the day, the Law Ministry filed the application on behalf of President Asif Ali Zardari.
Justice Khilji Arif Hussain will head the larger bench that will hear the "presidential reference" filed under
Article 186 of the Constitution on December 10.
The application was filed following a standoff between the apex court and the President over the appointment of a new Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court and the extension of the tenure of several judges.
The President had rejected the names cleared by a judicial commission headed by Chief Justice Chaudhry.
Following this, the apex court had contended that the President was bound to clear the appointment of judges whose
names had been cleared by the judicial commission and a parliamentary committee.
Zardari had objected to the judge recommended for the post of Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court, saying there was another judge senior to him.
The application filed in the Supreme Court was signed by the President yesterday.
It raised several questions and sought advice from the apex court on issues like the seniority of judges and the role of the judicial commission and the parliamentary committee.
The application further questioned whether the judicial commission had acted in accordance with the Constitution and conventions in recommending a junior judge for appointment as Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court.
It also questioned whether the judicial commission was properly constituted in line with constitutional provisions.
The application asked whether the President is "obliged to make appointments which are not in accordance with the
provisions of the Constitution".

procedures for appointing members of the superior judiciary.
