There are a number of salient public policy issues in the family law field that have invoked impassioned policy debates on a recurrent basis. In the absence of a body of research to address these critical concerns, advocates under the guise of social science scholarship have exacerbated the confusion and controversy by construing the scant available research evidence to justify their own ends, without regard to the relevance, quality, utility, and limitations of the studies. This is one of two articles on this problem that we have named "scholar-advocacy bias." In this article, we discuss the difference between truth in social science and truth in law. We identify common ways in which social science researchers and reviewers of research—wittingly or unwittingly—can become advocates for ideological positions and social policies at the expense of being balanced reporters of research evidence as illustrated by recent debates about overnight parenting of infants and toddlers. We also consider how adherence to established scientific principles and methods prevents the misuse of research in this way.]]>
This is the second of two articles on the risks of advocacy bias in the reporting of research findings when boundaries are blurred between social science research and advocacy in the pursuit of public policy. In the first article we identify common ways in which social science researchers and reviewers of research—wittingly or unwittingly—can become advocates for ideological positions and social policies at the expense of being balanced reporters of research evidence. The first article discusses the difference between truth in social science and truth in law and identifies a range of scholar-advocacy strategies that bias research evidence, illustrated by recent debates about overnight parenting of infants and toddlers. In this second article we show how biased research evidence by scholar advocates results in increased confusion and controversy that diminishes the credibility of all parties and stalemates progress in the field, using a case illustration of intimate partner violence in family court. We also show how adherence to scientific methods prevents the misuse of research and suggest a number of collaborative, integrative measures that can help transcend the adversarial stalemate. In a look to the future we consider some unbiased, standardized ways of assessing the strength and generalizability of research evidence.]]>
According to German family law, in family court proceedings that deal with custody or access rights, family judges are obligated to personally hear the child if the feelings, ties, or will of the child are significant for the decision. In a research study commissioned by the Federal Ministry of Justice, a nationwide representative survey of all judges compiled their personal information and their attitudes and expectations as well as various parameters regarding the concrete practice of hearing children. Also, with a very complex methodological design, over 50 children and their parents were studied one week in advance of the hearing, directly before and after the hearing, and four weeks following the hearing. The results of the study are presented, particularly those pertaining to the burden and relief for the children and the expectations of judges. The practical experiences of family judges in personally hearing children are included as well.]]>
A four-level Child-Centered Continuum Model (CCCM) for being child focused and child inclusive is introduced as a skills-based framework to increase the likelihood that children are considered in mediation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes. The article highlights children as parties to versus objects of family matters that affect them and begins with the belief that children are active participants in family systems. Parent readiness to hear their children is reviewed as well as a description of each of the four levels of the CCCM. Issues related to ADR practitioner neutrality, child and family safety, and skills are addressed.]]>
Child rearing methods used in African American homes have been the subject of much commentary among social scientists, child welfare, and legal personnel. Much of the deliberation has centered on firm disciplinary techniques used by African American mothers. However, few studies have included the perspectives of African American fathers. This study investigated the differences between African American mothers' and fathers' responses in relation to child misbehavior. Several significant differences were found with mothers utilizing more intense disciplinary methods than African American fathers. Results of this investigation underscored the importance of obtaining the viewpoints of African American fathers as well as mothers in understanding parenting in African American homes.]]>
Families involved in the child welfare system overwhelmingly draw from low socioeconomic (SES) populations. Impoverished children are placed in foster care at disproportionate rates. Addressing this dynamic requires understanding the adaptations low-income families make when parenting under adversity so that accurate assessments of their needs occur. This article focuses on two aspects of child welfare practice: the evaluation of parenting capacity and service delivery. It examines, in particular, how well current practices and guidelines, as outlined in the literature, fit with more general research on families and parenting in low-SES environments and offers suggestions for improving practice.]]>
The existing literature on abduction reunification is limited and evolving. Although guidelines for model service approaches exist, few programs address the unique challenges of reunifying children and families following abduction. This article delineates a family-based reunification model that has assisted families affected by abduction since 2006. Model components include a team-centered approach, a stage-oriented reunification process, and pitfalls and strategies related to intersystem collaboration. We present the value of a family-systems, solution-focused, trauma-informed, and case-specific approach to therapeutic reunification following child abduction. Evidence that is contrary to the popular notion of Stockholm's syndrome is also marked. Research on the efficacy of therapeutic reunification is essential for the growth of systems equipped to address the dynamic needs of these families. Accordingly, suggestions for evaluation research are proposed.
Mental health diagnoses, substance abuse issues, and school problems are often cited as contributors to adolescents' involvement with the juvenile justice system. Yet, few youth receive assessment, evaluation, or intervention prior to their involvement with the juvenile courts. This pilot study evaluated whether providing a randomized trial of wraparound forensic social work services in addition to court-appointed legal services would improve functioning, decrease motions for review, and lower recidivism for first-time juvenile offenders. Findings indicate statistically significant improvement for youth receiving wraparound services on six out of eight measures. A case study example is provided and implications for service provision are explored.
This article recommends a modification of the child interview and observational components of the conventional child custody evaluation. By scheduling these events in back-to-back sequence, the evaluator adds critical process-oriented data to familiar content-oriented data. These additional data include at least eight landmark separation, reunion, and transition events valuable to understanding the dynamic family system. The benefits of this protocol are discussed in terms of the ecological validity of available data, reduced evaluation time and costs, and research. Limitations are discussed relevant to questions of sampling bias, fatigue and sequence effects, and practical dilemmas that arise when evaluating families with many children.]]>
This study examines outcomes related to a parent representation pilot program in Travis County, Texas. Participation in the pilot program was related to earlier attorney appointment, a higher percentage of attorney presence across the life of the case, and a higher percentage of permanent outcomes for children. Parents' percentage of presence at hearings across the life of the case was related to the child being returned home, dismissal of the juvenile dependency petition, and permanent management conservatorship. Early attorney appointment (i.e., less than 10 days from the initial hearing to full appointment) was related to permanent case outcomes.]]>
In response to a growing number of requests to help reunify parents and children separated by allegations of child abuse, we developed a model for intervention informed by clinical experience, feedback from clients and professionals, and insights from a growing body of interdisciplinary literature. This article presents a retrospective analysis of 29 intrafamilial cases describing the intervention, outcomes, and problems presented by these challenging situations. The safety and protection of the child was the paramount consideration in determining success, whether or not reunification was achieved. Using informal follow-up data, 24 of the 29 cases were categorized as successful, 21 resulted in full or partial reunification, and 3 cases resulted in the voluntary or court-ordered withdrawal of an accused father believed to pose a risk to the child. In 5 cases, the nonaccused parent thwarted efforts at reunification, and the case returned to the court of relevant jurisdiction.]]>
Currently there is a circuit split between the Second and Ninth Circuits in determining whether or not to apply previous juvenile sex offenses to the sentencing of an adult sex offender. The Second Circuit feels it is within the trial court's discretion to apply an enhancement of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines by applying either a juvenile adjudicated or unadjudicated sex offense to the sentencing of an adult offender. The Ninth Circuit sees that as improper and only adult sex offenses should be counted toward the sentencing of adult sex offenses. Due to the vague language of this enhancement, the determination of how to apply this is up to the court's discretion. This Note proposes that the U.S. Sentencing Commission amend section 4B1.5, and decide in favor of the Ninth Circuit due to the plain text reading of the statute, as well as the intent of the guideline itself alongside the "rule of lenity" as understood in the Ninth Circuit's reasoning of only applying adult offenses to the sentencing of that adult later on in life. The positive public policy of rehabilitation of juvenile offenders would be served greatly by this amendment to this guideline. By eliminating the possibility of having such an offense count against a juvenile in the future would allow and encourage those juveniles to take positive steps toward their future.]]>
For divorced parents, the question of who should pay for their child's college tuition is very difficult, especially when the issue was never addressed in their separation agreement. Consequently, some states allow judges the discretion to extend child support duties for noncustodial parents after considering certain factors. Such factors may lead to the requirement of parental contributions to their child's postsecondary education. While many states have amended their statutes to encompass extended child support, Pennsylvania is the only state to have found their statute unconstitutional. Based on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision in Curtis v. Kline, this Note argues that, in order to diminish inequalities between divorced and nondivorced parents, as well as between children of divorced and nondivorced parents, all states should amend their child support statutes to declare that no parent is obligated to pay for his/her child's postsecondary education, unless voluntarily agreed to, in writing, prior to the child entering college.]]>

COLLINGWOOD, ON, Sept. 4, 2014 /CNW/ - Students returning to Pretty River Academy this week learned they will have to check their cell phones at the door.
The same school that became one of the first in Ontario to ban Wifi in the classroom is now saying "no" to student cell phones.
"The cell phone is the biggest distraction to a child's learning," said Brayden Plummer, Headmaster of the school. "When we suggested the idea our teachers supported it unanimously."
Pretty River Academy is an independent school based in Collingwood, Ontario which focuses on the pursuit of excellence.
"This isn't about reversing technology," said Plummer. "Two of our students won the national science fair last year for inventing new technologies. We also have a competitive robotics team in our school."
"Cell phones are amazing but have no place in the classroom. Some leading business schools have even banned laptops because students retain more information by listening and writing, than by clicking and typing."

Aussie Arborea ;-)
Beautiful. I just hope my arboreas look as good when they eventually flower.
Thank Jean
This one is probably from the same stock as yours?
Mine were grown from seeds from our lovely Chrissy here on DG.
Very slow to start as they were planted back in 2009. They have grown a lot since then and are now around 3' high.
Do you mean they have not flowered in 3 years?
Mine took 8 months and I regard that as a long time!
They were so small at first, that I had to nurse them inside for a year. So very slow growing. Even when put outside with the bigger boys, the arboreas were still slow until last year when they put on a spurt of growth. Now they have caught up in size to lots of others, I may see flowers. No signs of a Y yet though.
I am always way behind everyone here as it seems to be colder for longer . Spring signs can be here ( daffs , blossom etc) but not many days of real warmth until at least mid september.
August is usually windy with plenty of showers.
This area was one of the first pioneered by English settlers with large areas for sheep. I think they brought some of the English winter and left it here

Leasing a vehicle might seem complicated, especially for someone that has never considered anything other than buying. It is a great risk free way for any business or individual to run their vehicles, and offers fixed monthly budgeting with minimal outlay.
Here at Company Vehicle Solutions we focus on your needs, and make the process of leasing a car or commercial vehicle as straight forward and stress free as possible. One of our key strengths is knowing about people as well as vehicles.

O Master and holy God, who are beyond our understanding: at your word, light came forth out of darkness. In your mercy, you gave us rest through night-long sleep, and raised us up to glorify your goodness and to offer our supplication to You. Now, in your own tender love, accept us who adore You and give thanks to You with all our heart. Grant us all our requests, if they lead to salvation; give us the grace of manifesting that we are children of light and day, and heirs to your eternal reward. In the abundance of your mercies, O Lord, remember all your people; all those present who pray with us; all our brethren on land, at sea, or in the air, in every place of Your domain, who call upon your love for mankind. Upon all, pour down your great mercy, that we, saved in body and in soul, may persevere unfailingly; and that, in our confidence, we may extol your exalted and blessed Name, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, always, now and forever. Amen.

EU Commissioners acclaim biotech innovation and European SMEs at landmark event
[Download the pdf version, flashback in pictures, discover the Storify]
Brussels, 23 June 2015 – "No other sector holds the promise to enhance quality of life, productivity and environmental sustainability through innovation like biotechnology, while also benefitting Europe's economy and research base" with these words, Carlo Incerti, Chief Medical Officer, Genzyme Corporation and Chairman of EuropaBio, opened the 3rd EuropaBio event on the Benefits of Biotechnology hosted by Philippe De Backer MEP at the European Parliament today. Vytenis Andriukaitis, EU Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, and Carlos Moedas, EU Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation, were also keynote contributors. Over 100 attendees witnessed inspiring presentations and testimonials from biotech business leaders and beneficiaries about what the technology is achieving and what it brings concretely to people and economies in Europe. The event concluded with EuropaBio's Most Innovative European Biotech SME Awards ceremony celebrating the work of MolMed S.p.A. and Celtic Renewables Ltd., leading European SMEs in healthcare and industrial biotechnology respectively. The event itself was preceded by a Bell ringing ceremony to mark the opening of the Euronext stock market where biotech companies feature more and more prominently.
In his opening address, EU Commissioner Andriukaitis noted that 'I would like to restate the European Commission's strong interest and fundamental support for what the biotech sector has to offer, namely benefits for people, the economy, and sustainability'.
The event concluded with the unveiling of the winners of the 2015 Most Innovative European Biotech SMEs Awards: MolMed S.p.A. for the healthcare category and Celtic Renewables Ltd for the industrial biotechnology category. In his introduction to the 6th edition of the annual SME Awards, Commissioner Moedas underlined how 'We need to have a healthy disregard for the impossible in order to make truly great leaps in innovation. All the winners and finalists of this year's EuropaBio Most Innovative European Biotech Awards undoubtedly share that healthy disregard for the impossible, and it has been inspirational for me to play a small part in these awards'.
The winner in the Healthcare Biotech Category sponsored by the Deerfield Management Company*, MolMed S.p.A. is an Italian healthcare biotechnology company, focused on oncology and genetic orphan diseases, with two products in late clinical development stage addressing large unmet medical needs. MolMed is listed on the Milan Stock Exchange since 2008 and is positioned as a worldwide recognized leading company in the booming field of cell & gene therapies. Its unique technological platform in this space is exploited for the progress of company's proprietary programs as well as for projects performed in collaboration with third parties.
The winner in the Industrial Biotech Category, the internationally acclaimed Celtic Renewables Ltd is widely regarded as one of the most innovative new renewables companies in the UK, producing environmentally and commercially sustainable "drop-in" advanced biofuel (biobutanol) from the copious residues of one of Scotland's most important industries - the £4-billion malt whisky industry (each year 2 billion litres of liquid effluent and 750,000 tonnes of barley residue is generated) - not only providing a sustainable disposal route for the by-products of one of the UK's largest and most iconic industries, but also integrating renewable energy production with environmental sustainability and carbon reduction, by producing sustainable biobutanol as a direct replacement for fossil road fuel.

Ben Stiller and Jason Sudeikis Almost Kiss in 'Saturday Night Live' Promo
Ben Stiller is promoting his hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live" by appearing in an ad with regular cast Jason Sudeikis. The two draw their faces closer as if they are going to kiss after they sing praise to each other about their performance in their latest respective movie. In earlier scenes, however, the "Horrible Bosses" star embarrasses the "Tower Heist" actor with his retorts.
The upcoming episode that features Stiller as the host will air this Saturday, October 8 at 11:30 P.M. EST on NBC. Foster the People are tapped to serve as the musical guest. "SNL" alum Eddie Murphy, who also co-stars Stiller in "Tower Heist", was recently rumored to make a cameo in the episode.
According to The New York Post, "work is going on behind the scenes for Murphy to pop up" in this week's episode. However, his publicist has denied it as saying, "Mr. Murphy is not planning on returning to Saturday Night Live at this time. Perhaps at some time in the future."

Rocka Bowling - Best Free Game is a bowling application for Android which provides a new way of playing this popular game.
The controls are quite different from other games: first of all, drag the ball left or right and then swipe back and forward in order to launch it. The more you touch, the better. The main advantage of this game is its design: the graphics are really engaging and includes 3D animations.
You can play with 5 extra friends and have fun with them or you can simply play by yourself and try to beat your own score. Although the idea and game overall seems very enjoyable, the problem is that it sometimes has bugs and the animations don't always work well and tend to freeze.
Best, Cool & Fun Games - Free Game Creation S.A. is the developer of many games for Android, including this Rocka Bowling. If you enjoyed playing Ant Smasher or Fireworks, you might also want to try this one. Ready to become the bowling king?

Drunk boy shock! Now pass the pinot
Why does alcohol get such an easy ride?DAVE ARMSTRONG
Relevant offers
OPINION: Hamilton rarely makes the national news. However, last week it was in the headlines twice in one day. At beautiful Seddon Park, the Black Caps, after experiencing a rare loss of form and having some comprehensive victories, came to their senses and dutifully collapsed against the Windies.
You really know it's a typical Kiwi summer when you walk out of the room and New Zealand is 56 for 1, then return moments later to find we're 64 for 7.
But the highlight of the Hamilton game was neither the Black Caps nor the Windies, if the ecstatic commentators were anything to go by.
It was the brilliant one-handed catch on the Seddon Park bank by cricket fan Michael Morton, wearing his distinctive Tui T-shirt. This entitled him to a $100,000 prize.
The saturation media coverage and repeated fawning about the competition by the commentators meant the 100 grand spent by the brewery, not to mention the money they earned from selling thousands of T-shirts at $30 a pop, was money well spent.
On the same day, across town in Fairfield, in a totally unrelated incident, a Hamilton nine-year-old was filmed off his trolley in a skate park.
The footage went viral and there were angry calls for the parents of the child to be severely punished. But it turned out it was not the parents but a "family associate" who supplied the child with alcohol. With family associates like those who needs enemies?
But are the two Hamilton incidents really unrelated?
There is about a 50 per cent chance that the alcohol that the child drank was sold by the same company that benefited from the catching competition.
Are alcohol counsellors like Roger Brooking right when they say that the drunken exploits of the nine-year-old are a symptom of our country's alcohol culture?
I'm not sure that we can simply blame "alcohol culture" every time we do something stupid while drunk.
Personal and family responsibility play an enormous part.
But Mr Brooking is right that our pro-booze culture is also a major factor, as is price and availability of alcohol. Yet it seems that the more we accept booze sponsorship and enjoy the "good-natured" exploits of drunken sports fans, the more we show outrage when things go too far across town in Fairfield.
People are rightly angry about the nine-year-old getting paralytic, yet many turn a blind eye when their own teenagers binge drink. Imagine the outrage if Child, Youth and Family turned up to the school ball of a high-decile school and committed the vomiting teenagers to state care on account of the lack of responsibility that their parents, or "family associates", were displaying.
But what about price? Compare alcohol to tobacco. The Government's war on smoking has seen it greatly increase the price of cigarettes. A packet of 20 now costs nearly $20.I am sure Justice Minister "Crusher" Collins will be justly outraged by the Fairfield incident, and can rightly point to the recent tightening up of some alcohol laws.
This strategy seems to have been highly successful.
One would assume, if public health experts are to be believed, that a similar increase in the alcohol price would greatly help reduce consumption, including among 9-year-olds. Yet alcohol seems as cheap as ever.
For the price of a packet of cigarettes, youth can almost kill themselves on mixers or spirits. I'm not suggesting that cigarettes should be cheaper as they have this irritating habit of killing people, but why does alcohol get such as easy ride?
I suspect the answer lies in the wealthy alcohol lobby - the same lobby that supported "six-o'clock swill" back in the 1960s as it kept labour costs down, and resisted attempts to get bars to sell food.
So will the Government take action on alcohol prices? Probably not. I suspect any attempt to raise the price would be met with strident opposition by middle-class Nimbys like me. We drink craft beer and pinot noir, not mixers.
And though we might only get pissed occasionally, at opening nights or the Martinborough Fair, we sincerely believe that we have a better class of vomit than Hamilton nine-year-olds.

Web Security Journal: There's been a flurry of discussion this week among Internet and Web standards heavy-hitters around WebSocket, the new communications protocol supported in Chrome 4 and Safari 5. What was the main issue? Is there some kind of fundamental security vulnerability with the WebSocket (WS) protocol?
John Fallows: When surfing the Web, our browsers may communicate with Web servers via HTTP proxies that deliver many benefits, such as providing previously cached Web content more efficiently than repeatedly contacting the target server. These proxies may be either explicitly configured at the browser or they may form part of the general network topology to intercept the communication path implicitly. Securely encrypted Web communication cannot be intercepted by such proxies.
Members of the Hypertext Bidirectional (HyBi) IETF Working Group recently completed a study to test the vulnerabilities of these implicit, intercepting HTTP proxies. The study found that the raw socket capabilities of Flash and Java could be used to mount an attack on these intercepting HTTP proxies, such that an attacker might be able to influence the contents of the cache and change the behavior of specific sites for users accessing those sites through the same intercepting HTTP proxy.
The results showed that of the 47,338 intercepting HTTP proxies tested with the unencrypted WebSocket handshake alone, 0.37% and 0.017% were found vulnerable for the two specific attacks described in the study.
Web Security Journal: If the flaw lies not in WebSockets, but in some particular type of proxies, why are commentators inclining towards discussing WebSockets and only WebSockets?
Fallows: If all intercepting HTTP proxies correctly implemented the HTTP standard, then the 101 Switching Protocols response used by WebSocket handshake would be both sufficient and elegant.
Even though these intercepting HTTP proxies vulnerabilities have been enabled by Flash and Java for a long time, they were reported in the study as part of the IETF working group design process for the WebSocket wire protocol, therefore commentators have been inclined to comment specifically about the WebSockets portion of this result.
Web Security Journal: The tests that spurred Mozilla and Opera to disable WebSockets as the default were done with Java and Flash clients. That means presumably that this issue has been around long before WebSockets? Why hasn't it been caught and dealt with before?
Fallows: The WebSocket wire protocol design effort has brought together a huge community of experts to deliver this functionality such that it can be deployed on a global scale, which necessitates such experiments to validate the standards compliance of deployed HTTP proxy infrastructure.
It will be interesting to see how Adobe and Oracle respond to address the vulnerabilities enabled by raw socket access in Flash and Java. Perhaps this will encourage them to adopt WebSockets as a native part of their platform, and have a more restrictive policy on raw socket access for Web deployments of their plug-in technologies.
Web Security Journal: What's the exact current status, then? The protocol is being standardized by the IETF as we speak, but what about the WebSocket API overall? What's its status vis-a-vis the W3C?
Web Security Journal: So is it accurate to describe WebSockets - still - as an early stage specification at the moment?
Fallows: Web browsers have always innovated beyond the standards, in part to differentiate themselves and in part to drive the standards forward with the benefit of real-world experience. WebSocket is a good example of that, having evolved beyond both Ajax and Comet, as well as raw socket communication provided by plug-ins. If we are careful to provide a stable and extensible WebSocket base, as was achieved with HTTP, then I would fully expect to see browsers implementing custom enhancements to that base, and it will be the responsibility of WebSocket gateway providers to support for those enhancements.
Web Security Journal: Mozilla, despite disabling it as the default in Firefox 4, says it is "excited" by WebSockets. Why is such a major browser player "excited" - what is it about WebSockets that gets a major Internet force like the Mozilla Foundation to be so upbeat about its potential?
Fallows: WebSockets, and HTML5 in general, represent a leap forward for the Web application platform and it is certainly an "exciting" time for all of us using the Web today. For decades we have seen the evolution of Web applications with gradually increasing interactivity getting closer and closer to their desktop installed counterparts. WebSockets allows us to add the final piece of that puzzle, providing desktop class TCP network connectivity while traversing the HTTP-constrained infrastructure of the Web. A new breed of applications can now be built using WebSocket with a fraction of the server-side infrastructure costs, optimized network bandwidth utilization and more immediate delivery of time-sensitive information.
Web Security Journal: And where does the WebSocket protocol sit in terms of HTML5 specification?
The WebSocket wire protocol is governed by the IETF who manage many of the world's protocols like HTTP, FTP, SMTP, and others.
The W3C standards body maintains the both HTML5 specification and the WebSocket API specification which defines how JavaScript applications can leverage WebSocket functionality.
Browser providers depend on both standards to fully deliver WebSocket functionality.
Web Security Journal: Adam Barth, whose paper on a possible exploit of transparent proxies sparked this latest discussion, has also described a handshake for the WebSocket protocol that resists cross-protocol attacks. Is that the direction the IETF will go do you think?
Fallows: Ultimately there are a few ways to proceed that balance HTTP compatibility with strategies to overcome non-compliant HTTP proxies. Given that the same study demonstrated no successful attacks on Adam's proposed enhancement to the WebSocket handshake, it seems to be a very strong candidate as we move forward.
Web Security Journal: Can't a WebSocket connection simply be encrypted? Wouldn't that render this whole issue moot - or is that too simplistic?
Fallows: The attacks identified by Adam Barth's paper would not be possible using an encrypted WebSocket connection because the HTTP proxy would not be able to see the encrypted wire traffic and could therefore not be confused into triggering the buggy behavior. If the browser providers restricted encrypted-only access to WebSockets then this issue could be avoided.
Web Security Journal: So from a Kaazing perspective, then, is it your intention to propagate the world with WebSockets and then go to sleep with the feeling of a job well done, or is the propagation of WS gateways the means to some other kind of business goal?
Fallows: At Kaazing, we believe that WebSockets is the beginning of a new future for Web applications as we move from the disconnected world of yesterday to the always connected, always up-to-date world we live in today. We understand that while WebSockets provide the foundation of that new beginning, the majority of the new capabilities lie in how you use WebSocket to support higher-level protocols that make it straightforward to solve technical challenges that would have taken significantly more effort to achieve otherwise.
Our goals are to help to world transition to this new standard easily and efficiently, and continue to deliver solutions that eliminate the unnecessary architectural complexity found in many Web applications today.
Web Security Journal: And is anybody yet finding that they can make more money, or spend less, because of Kaazing's offerings? Are there real-world implementations at all?
Fallows: We have customers in the Financial Services, Sports Betting, and Online Auctions markets that have used our technology to reduce infrastructure costs, reduce time-to-market, improve end-user experience and drive their revenues more efficiently.
Web Security Journal: What, in your view, is the best way of channeling developers' interest in experimenting with what a WebSocket gateway can do for their architecture? How can someone who is not yet au fait with the technbology most easily play catch-up?
Fallows: The WebSocket.org site is dedicated to explaining the various aspects of WebSocket technology and would be a useful starting point for those wishing to read up. It contains links to the relevant WebSocket API and wire protocol specifications, including a discussion of the many benefits of WebSockets.
A developer download of Kaazing WebSocket Gateway is also freely available from kaazing.com. This delivers emulation of the standard WebSocket API for all browsers. So in the interim until browser providers re-enable WebSockets, developers can still experiment with the same WebSocket APIs in both current and older browsers that will prepare them for the future of Web communication.
Many banks and financial institutions are experimenting with containers in development environments, but when will they move into production?

The essence of data analysis involves setting up data pipelines that consist of several operations that are chained together – starting from data collection, data quality checks, data integration, data analysis and data visualization (including the setting up of interaction paths in that visualization). In our opinion, the challenges stem from the technology diversity at each stage of the data pipeline as well as the lack of process around the analysis.

In this leveled reader, Olson uses short sentences and simple vocabulary to offer a very clear explanation of the moons phases and how to identify them. The accompanying full-page photos and diagrams also help elucidate the topic, and the design is simple without being boring. The only thing lacking is pronunciations for gibbous and crescent. --Horn Book Guide, January 2007
Brilliant and interesting photographs, easily understood diagrams, and a short, informative text are the highlights of this Patterns in Nature series, which features titles on day and night, hibernation, phases of the moon, and seasons of the year. This title explains that the moon only appears to change shape. A clear diagram names each phase, including less familiar words like gibbous and crescent, included in a short glossary at the end and illustrated with a photograph. There are photos of the tiniest sliver which appear after the new moon, which is really no visible moon at all. Sometimes the moon is shown in quiet solitude, sometimes hanging over a busy city, sometimes over a frozen field. The last page shows a full circle of the real moon s phases. The phases are one of nature s patterns. Each title features a similar pattern diagram on the last page. Children can see the principle and learn the words that explain that principle. Each book features at least one animal in an appropriate activity for the season or time of day. There is a very short index, a list of additional books, and reference to the Facthound web site with links to age-appropriate sites for each book. This is an outstanding series of concept books for new and pre-readers; the photographs make the book interesting enough to use with older children who struggle with reading and concepts. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007

Video Premiere: My Morning Jacket's 'Touch Me I'm Going to Scream Pt. 2'
American rock band My Morning Jacket have premiered music video for their brand new single "Touch Me I'm Going to Scream Pt. 2". The single is listed in the band's fifth studio album called "Evil Urges", which has been released in June.
The video is directed by Hornet's Mixtape Club, which have a reputation for turning out innovative, character-driven videos for J Dilla, and bands like TV on the Radio, and Yeasayer. The video is set in a form of animated movie. It takes place in a jungle on a dark night and stars a character named Jasper, a furry withdrawn creature who has big eyes. Jasper is seen in the video, carrying a lantern, which is inhabited by his only friend, a firefly whose light helps him see in the darkness.
Jasper is then caught by a number of jungle beasts and he accidentally drops his lantern, letting his friend loose. He travels through the jungle in order to find the firefly. The journey takes him down a river, through a cave, and up a ravine, into a beautiful meadow full of fireflies.
