Employment Procedures
Signing of Labour Contract
Labour contracts are agreements reached between an employer (hereinafter referred to as "employer") and its employees upon negotiations and take effect after being signed or sealed. There is no need for contract verification and authentication.
There are clear provisions in the Labour Contract Law and the relevant rules and regulations regarding requisite provisions, contract duration, alteration, dissolution and termination, and compensation for contract dissolution. The labour administrative departments of various localities shall provide enterprises with labour handbooks for use as reference when signing labour contracts.
The Implementation Regulations sets clear definitions for the time for the signing of labour contracts between an employer and its employees:
(a) An employer must sign a written labour contract with its employee within one month after the commencement of service by the employee. If the employee receives the written notification after one month of service but does not sign the written labour contract, the employer shall notify the employee in writing to terminate the employment relationship. No financial compensation shall be paid to the employee, but the employee shall receive wages for the time of service actually rendered.
(b) Where an employer fails to conclude a written labour contract with an employee after the lapse of more than one month but less than one year from the date of employment, it shall pay to the employee his monthly wage in double amount and shall conclude a written labour contract with the employee. If the employee does not sign the written labour contract, the employer shall notify the employee in writing to terminate the employment relationship. Financial compensation shall be paid to the employee in accordance with the Labour Contract Law.
The start time of the period when an employer is required to pay an employee his monthly wages in double amount shall be the day following the full month from the day when the employee is employed, and the end time shall be the day before the day when the written labour contract is concluded.
(c) Where an employer fails to conclude a written labour contract with an employee after the lapse of one full year, the employer shall pay his monthly wages in double amount, and the period from the date the employee starts his employment and the day before he has worked for a full year shall be deemed to be the period when he has been working for the employer on a labour contract without a fixed term. A written labour contract without a fixed term shall be concluded with the employee immediately.
The start time of the period when an employer is required to pay an employee his monthly wages in double amount shall be the day following the full month from the day when the employee is employed, and the end time shall be the day before the lapse of one full year.
Provisions of the Labour Contract Law regarding the probation period:
For a labour contract with a term of more than three months but less than one year, the probation period may not exceed one month; for a labour contract with a term of more than one year but less than three years, the probation period may not exceed two months; and for a fixed-term labour contract of more than three years or a non-fixed-term labour contract, the probation period may not exceed six months.
The same employer and the same employee may agree on only one probation period. For a labour contract with a term on project basis or a labour contract with a term of less than three months, no probation period is required. The probation period must fall within the term of the labour contract. If the term of a labour contract covers the probation period only, such probation period is deemed invalid and the term will be the term of the labour contract.
Provisions regarding the dissolution of labour contracts:
Under the Labour Contract Law, there are nine situations where an employer may unilaterally dissolve a labour contract.
An employer may immediately dissolve a labour contract when an employee:
(1) is proved to be not meeting the requirements for employment during the probation period;
(2) seriously violates the employer's rules and regulations;
(3) commits serious dereliction of duty or practices graft, causing substantial damage to the employer;
(4) has concurrently established an employment relationship with another employer which seriously affects the completion of his tasks with the original employer, or refuses to rectify the matter after the same is brought to his attention by the employer;
(5) causes the employer to conclude a labour contract or make an amendment thereto, that is contrary to the employer's true intent using such means as deception or coercion, or by taking advantage of the employer's precarious position, so that the labour contract becomes invalid; and
(6) has his criminal liability pursued in accordance with the law.
In the event of immediate dissolution of contract due to situations listed above, the Labour Contract Law stipulates that the employer is not obligated to make any financial compensation to the employee in question.
An employer may dissolve a labour contract with advance notification, if:
(7) the employee is sick or is injured outside of work, and is unable to resume his original position after the prescribed medical treatment period, nor can he assume any other position arranged by the employer;
(8) the employee is incompetent for his position, and remains incompetent after being trained or being assigned to another position;
(9) the objective circumstances on which the original labour contract was based have undergone major changes which have rendered the contract inoperable, yet no agreement can be reached between the employer and the employee despite attempt made to modify the labour contract.
In any of the above situations, the employer may dissolve the labour contract after giving the employee one month's advance notification in writing or paying him/her an additional one month's wage.
Situations when an employer may not dissolve a labour contract:
Under the Labour Contract Law, an employer may not unilaterally dissolve a labour contract in the following situations:
(1) if the employee is engaged in operations exposed to occupational disease hazards and is not given pre-departure occupational health examinations, or is suspected of an occupational disease and in the process of being diagnosed or under medical observation;
(2) if the employee is confirmed to have totally or partially lost the ability to work due to an occupational disease contracted at work, or due to a work-related injury;
(3) if the employee has contracted an illness or sustained a non-work-related injury, and is within the prescribed medical treatment period;
(4) if the employee is a female during her pregnancy, childbirth or breast-feeding period;
(5) if the employee has worked for the same entity for 15 years, and is within five years of legal retirement age; and
(6) other situations specified in laws and regulations. Generally, these include: While the employee is serving as the chairperson, vice-chair, or committee member in the labour union; serving as an equal consultation representative; or serving in the military on a mandatory basis.
In labour dispatch, an employer may not return a dispatched worker to the labour dispatching entity in accordance with Article 12 (1) of the Interim Provisions on Labour Dispatch [1] prior to the expiry of the dispatch period; the dispatched worker may be returned only by extending the dispatch period upon its expiry until the disappearance of the circumstances.
When an employer unilaterally dissolves a labour contract, it shall give the trade union advance notification of the justifications, study its views, and keep it informed in writing of the result of the handling of the matter.
Provisions regarding layoffs:
Under the Labour Contract Law, the scope of mass layoff has been expanded on the basis of the Labour Law:
If, under any of the following circumstances, an employer has to reduce its workforce by 20 persons or more or by less than 20 persons but the number accounts for more than 10% of its total workforce, the employer may only lay off its staff after it has explained the situation to the labour union or to all its employees 30 days in advance, has considered the opinions of the labour union or the employees, and has subsequently submitted the staff layoff plan to the labour administrative department:
(1) restructuring pursuant to the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law;
(2) serious difficulties in production and operation;
(3) changes in production, major technological innovations or adjustments in the operation mode of the enterprise have made it necessary to reduce workforce even after changes have been made in the labour contract;
(4) the economic circumstances at the time of the signing of the labour contract have undergone major changes which have rendered it impossible to execute the contract.
In retaining staff in the course of carrying out layoffs, priority should be given to the following staff:
(1) those who have signed a fixed-term labour contract with a relatively long term with the employer;
(2) those who have signed a non-fixed-term labour contract with the employer;
(3) those who are the sole wage earner in their families and have to support elders or minors at home.
If an employer that has laid off its staff in accordance with the rules recruits staff again within six months, the laid-off staff should be notified and should be given priority in employment under the same conditions.
An employer may return a dispatched worker to the labour dispatching entities in any of the following situations:
(1) If the employer is in a situation specified in Article 40 (3)[2] or Article 41[3] of the Labour Contract Law;
(2) The employer is declared bankrupt in accordance with law, its business licence is revoked, it is ordered to close down or to dissolve, or it decides to dissolve on an earlier date or not to continue business operation after its business licence expires;
(3) The agreed period of labour dispatch has expired.
Provisions on financial allowance and financial compensation:
According to the provisions of the Labour Contract Law and its Implementation Rules, an employer shall pay its employees financial compensation in the following situations:
(1) The employer proposes to dissolve the labour contract and reaches an agreement with the employee on the dissolution through negotiations;
(2) The employer has dissolved the labour contract with advance notification according to regulations;
(3) The employer has dissolved the labour contract to carry out mass layoff and restructuring in accordance with the provisions of the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law;
(4) The labour contract is terminated due to the expiration of the stated contract period, except when the employer extends the labour contract under the same conditions or offers more favourable conditions but the employee declines the offer;
(5) The labour contract is terminated because the employer is declared bankrupt in accordance with the law, its business licence is revoked, it is ordered to close down or to dissolve, or it decides to dissolve on an earlier date;
(6) The employee terminates the labour contract in accordance with the law; and
(7) The labour dispatching entity dissolves or terminates the labour contract with the dispatched worker in accordance with regulations.
Financial compensation is paid to an employee based on the number of years he has worked for the employer according to the standard of one month's salary for each full year he worked. Any period of more than six months but less than one year shall be counted as one year. Any period of less than six months shall be paid half his monthly salary.
The monthly salary for financial compensation shall be based on the salary due to the employee, including pay at hourly or piece rate and other monetary income such as bonus, allowance and subsidies. If the monthly salary of the worker is three times higher than the average monthly salary in the previous year for employees as announced by the people's government at the municipal level or city-with-district level where the employer is located, the rate for financial compensation paid to him shall be three times the average monthly salary of employees and shall be for not more than 12 years of work. An employee whose average salary in the 12 months before the dissolution or termination of labour contract is below the local minimum wage shall be paid compensation at the local minimum wage. If an employee has worked for less than 12 months, the average wage shall be calculated according to the number of months worked.
Special provisions regarding compensation upon labour contract termination with employees who have sustained work-related injury:
When an employee dissolves or terminates his employment relationship with his employer due to work-related injury, he shall not only be paid financial compensation in accordance with the Labour Contract Law but shall also be paid a lump sum medical allowance from the work-related injury insurance fund in accordance with the Provisions on Work-Related Injury Insurance and a lump sum disability allowance from his employer. The specific standards for the lump sum medical allowance and lump sum disability allowance shall be determined by the provincial, autonomous region and municipal people's governments.
Record Filing of Employment of Workers
The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security issued its Circular on Establishing a System of Record Filing of Employment of Workers in 2006, requiring employers to establish a system of record filing of employment of workers.
Information to be included in the record filing of employment of workers by an employer shall include: Name, legal representative, economic type and organisation code of the employer; number, name, gender and ID number of the workers employed; time of commencement and termination of the labour contracts signed; and number, name of employee and time of labour contracts terminated or dissolved; as well as other information required by the local labour and social security department at the provincial, autonomous region or municipal levels for record filing purposes.
An employer that hires new employees or renews its labour contracts with employees shall complete record filing procedures within 30 days of the employment of employees or renewal of labour contracts. An employer that terminates or dissolves its labour contract with employees shall complete the record filing procedures within seven days of the termination or dissolution of labour contract.
After changing its name, legal representative, economic type or organisation code, an employer shall complete the change of record filing within 30 days. After an employer has made its exit, it shall complete cancellation of record filing of employment of employees within seven days.
Where the place of registration of an employer is not the same as the actual place of operation, recordation shall be completed at the labour and social security administrative department at the place of actual operation.
Personal Files Management
The personal files management organ for professional and technical personnel hired by foreign-invested enterprises and the Chinese employees of the resident representative office of foreign companies shall be the talent exchange service agencies under the organisation department of the party committee or the department of personnel administration of the government at or above the county level. In the case of talent exchange across regions, the management of personal files may be entrusted to the talent exchange service agencies at the place of domicile registration or current work place of the staff concerned. The talent exchange service agencies are responsible for verification of the staff's identity, salary track record and political records examination (for overseas travel) and other matters relating to personal files management. Other services, such as assessment of technical qualifications and social insurance, are also provided.
[1] Article 12 (1) states that: An employer may return the dispatched worker to the labour dispatching entity under circumstances specified in Article 40 (3) and Article 41 of the Labour Contract Law.
[2] Article 40 (3) states that: A material change in the objective circumstances relied upon at the time of conclusion of the labour contract renders it impossible for the parties to perform and, after consultation, the employer and the employee are unable to reach an agreement on amending the labour contract.
[3] Article 41 stipulates the statutory ground of mass layoffs.

We have reports that 'cameo' nightclub (map) in Bournemouth is operating a racist 'colour bar'. Last night a group of black customers were turned away despite having paid in advance for a table booked two weeks previously. The party had all given their names with the booking but crucially the management didn't know they were black. We call on comrades in the Bournemouth area to close this establishment down.

Key words: participation, european dimension, innovation, social change
Project duration: 01.05.2018 - 30.04.2021
European Commission
The aim of SISCODE is to better understand co-creation as a bottom-up and design-driven phenomenon, to analyse favourable conditions that support its scalability and replication and to cross-fertilise RRI practices and policies.
The overarching aim of SISCODE is to better understand co-creation as a bottom-up and design-driven phenomenon that is flourishing in Europe (in fab labs, living labs, social innovations, smart cities, communities and regions), to analyse favourable conditions that support its scalability and replication and to use this knowledge to cross-fertilise RRI practices and policies. This aim is articulated along three main operational objectives:
Public Engagement (PE) and Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) have emerged, in the last decade, as the results of policies and initiatives demanding the early involvement of multiple actors, including the public, in science and innovation. Nevertheless, the early engagement of actors is facing many challenges, and PE rarely goes beyond the stage of consultation. On the other hand, the integration of co-creation in European STI policy and programmes faces barriers such as: scarce understanding of co-creation among researchers and policy makers; "sectorialised" approach to STI policy making; lack of effective knowledge to cope with constraints that hamper the co-creation process. The introduction of design methodologies and tools is emerging as a valuable approach to deal with these problems, as design has been already recognised as key to operationalise co-creation in different fields. Thanks to an iterative process centred on prototyping - co-design effectively support co-creation to move from the ideation of new solutions and policies to their implementation. Given this framework, SISCODE aims: to understand co-creation as a bottom-up and design-driven phenomenon that is flourishing in Europe (in fab labs, living labs, social innovations, smart cities, communities and regions); to analyse favourable conditions that support its effective introduction, scalability and replication; and to use this knowledge to crossfertilise RRI practices and policies. To reach this aim SISCODE will: run a European study to compare co-creation ecosystems and describe effective dynamics and outcomes of the integration of society in science and innovation; experiment with design as a new system of competences capable to support the development of implementable RRI and STI solutions and policies; and understand the transformations needed to embed co-creation in STI policy making, overcoming barriers and resistance to change and considering organisational transformation.
The project is conceived as a connector that aims at (re)constructing the missing links between strategic objectives (to make research and innovation more 'responsible'), topics and communities (domains of science and technology, groups of stakeholders, citizens and society at large), and the activities on the ground (research and innovation), which are currently often disconnected. The project will then draw lessons from past and current experiences in public engagement for STI policy making, and from experimentation and action research, to develop knowledge and practical recommendations on how to ensure that research and innovation outcomes serve society better.
Given this context, there is a strong rationale for configuring the project as a comprehensive European investigation of single initiatives and policy frameworks to understand what outcomes co-creation is achieving in science and innovation, and provide knowledge to better integrate it in the design of solutions and policies.
This investigation will combine two complementary processes:
This will allow for the possibility of providing clear guidance and advice to policy makers to ensure that future policies for the inclusion of society in science and innovation consider relevant upstream and downstream factors, with the aim of setting up a framework of "implementable integration" that takes into account not only the drivers, but also relevant barriers, such as: resistance to change, lack of resources, knowledge, established practices and tools.

Arsenic in Drinking Water: Problems and Solutions
The age-old poison could be jumping out of the history books and into your water.
While arsenic may have been known as the "king of poisons" in 18th century Europe, it's also a common contaminant found in our drinking water today. Here's why you don't want to find arsenic in drinking water, and how to best avoid exposure.
Because arsenic cannot be seen and has no smell or taste, this contaminant has a murderous history – it was the weapon of choice for aristocrats for hundreds of years, from the Roman Empire to the Renaissance.
(In fact, arsenic-contaminated beer resulted in over 6,000 poisonings and 71 deaths in northern England in 1900 alone).
Today, arsenic is mainly known as a contaminant that seeps into drinking water and causes a myriad of health issues for those who consume it unknowingly.
Naturally occurring in rock and sometimes found as an industrial byproduct, arsenic has been found in the groundwater of every state in the U.S., which means all of us must be aware of the risk factors.
The Problems
While the EPA restricts the amount of arsenic that can legally exist in drinking water, it doesn't ban it. On the other hand, scientists warn that trace levels of arsenic increase the risk of cancer and other disorders.
Exposure to this harmful contaminant may cause:
- Cancer in the skin, lungs and kidney (most common)
- Skin changes, such as thickening and pigmentation (most common)
- Gastrointestinal symptoms
- Disturbances of cardiovascular and nervous system functions
- Death
- Blackfoot disease (found in Taiwan)
Additionally, in 2014, Environmental Health published a piece on how consumption of arsenic is negatively associated with childhood cognitive development. Scientists performed a cross-sectional study on children exposed to arsenic from well water and those who were not. Those exposed to small levels of arsenic (>5ppb) saw lower scores on the full-scale IQ, perceptual reasoning, working memory and verbal comprehension scores.
It's not singular, large doses that scientists worry about – it's consumption in low levels over long periods of time.
Read more about arsenic here and here.
The Solutions
As mentioned above, arsenic cannot be seen, smelled or tasted. The only way to detect this harmful contaminant in your water is to schedule a water test.
A Culligan water expert will diagnose your water issues, then supply a customized solution to ensure your water is not only safe for drinking, but also tastes great.
We recommend installing a Culligan Reverse Osmosis system to best eliminate contaminants that may be lurking in your tap and affecting your family's health. You can install a whole-house filter, or a point-of-use system if you're only looking to purify water from one tap.
Contact your local Culligan Man today!

God bless this country! Immigrants. Rocket scientists. Hand farters. Manualists.
He looks like a Sopranos extra. He is not.
Gerry Phillips is a genius. That cut off shirt. That over stuffed couch. The jury rigged hand fart microphone. The speaker system behind him. Those hands. It just all works...like a symphony.
I do not know if there is a more accomplished hand farter in the universe. Gerry is not as vulgar Joseph Pujol, France's legendary Le Petomane: no rear ended orifice is required. No contorted abdominal wind tunnels. Gerry is odorless. A working class hero, master of his own domain.
Please. For the sake of your children, and your children's children...watch, "Sweet Child o' Mine, Hand Fart Style", the classic from Guns 'n Roses. You must watch all the way through the vocal section. If it does not bring a smile to your face....you might be a vulcan.

The newly finished "upgrade" of the Caledonian Sky at Gotenius in Gothenburg is seen at the Amerca quay bunkering and waiting for a cruise for specially invited guests and a trip to London.
Minutes before departure, the alarm sounds and they practise "abandon ship". But after that, they ease off the berth.
According to the homepage of the managing company Salen Ship Management, the Caledonian Sky was built in 1991 and refurbished 2011/2012. She carries a crew of 71, tendering 114 passengers, in a 90,6 long and 15,3 meters wide vessel.

Microsoft Office Project Server 2007 is designed to support high levels of programmer productivity by taking advantage of Microsoft .NET Framework, Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 components, and Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. Developers can extend the Project Web Access user interface with Web Parts developed with Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0, define automatic workflows using Windows Workflow Foundation, and enforce business rules using Project Server events and the Web services of the Project Server Interface (PSI).
This article describes the general programmability features of Project Server, in the following sections:
Project Server and Windows SharePoint Services
Workflow Engine
General PSI Features
PDS Compatibility

Project Server Events
Project Server and Windows SharePoint Services
Project Web Access is built upon Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, and uses master pages and Web Parts to make it easier to build custom Project Web Access solutions. Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 also provides core infrastructure services for Project Server such as administration, security, and the Windows Workflow Foundation run-time engine.
Project Server 2003 uses Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 to save lists of issues and risks, and to manage the document library that is associated with each project Web site. Project Server 2007 integrates much more deeply with Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 as the platform for project collaboration. Project collaboration includes specialized lists for issue and risk tracking and the new project Deliverables feature, along with the document library and the ability to convert SharePoint task lists to Proposals and Operations projects. Project Server 2007 provides more flexibility for team collaboration; for example, you can locate project workspaces anywhere within the SharePoint server farm where Project Server is installed.
Project Server 2007 installation also installs and provisions Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and the other core services of Office SharePoint Server 2007, such as Enterprise Search and administration. Project Server is a shared service that is associated with a Web application instance. The Project shared service is a logical service provider across all Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 servers that handle one or more instances of Project Server 2007. Project Server provisioning creates a specific Web site within a Web application instance that contains the Project portal pages (Timesheet Center, Project Center, and so on). For an illustration of the Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) view of the shared service, application pools, and Web application instance for a typical installation, see Finding the PSI Web Services.
The Shared Service Provider uses a separate application pool in IIS. When both Project Server and Office SharePoint Server 2007 are installed, the Office SharePoint Server 2007 Web services virtual Web site includes the following shared services:
Excel Calculation Services (installed with Office SharePoint Server 2007)
PSI (the Project Server Interface is the Project Server shared service)
Enterprise Search (installed with either Project Server or Office SharePoint Server 2007)
The Project Server shared service is a wrapper that groups the middle-tier business logic and the databases for a particular instance of Project Server. If a server farm contains two shared resource application pools, there are two instances of the Project Server shared service. A Project Server shared service is fundamentally a management and scale boundary with the advantages of easier management and greater scalability. For example, a team can create a workspace around related projects that contains aggregations of list data from the projects and Project Web Parts that look across projects. PSI methods in Project Server can also create Project workspaces cross-farm to improve performance when accessing project documents over a WAN.
Workflow Engine
The Windows Workflow Foundation run-time engine hosted in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 is the workflow engine for Office SharePoint Server 2007 and is also part of the core Project Server platform.
Windows Workflow Foundation is a Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 technology; Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 implements several provider components for the hosting environment. Windows Workflow Foundation provides an extensible workflow run-time engine that enables partners, ISVs, and customers to build custom business workflow solutions (workflows) on Project Server and Office SharePoint Server 2007. The Office SharePoint Server 2007 product includes some sample workflows for document management, such as the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) review workflow. If Office SharePoint Server 2007 is available, Project Server enables the Project Proposal approval workflow. System administrators and developers can create additional workflows using Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 or Microsoft Visual Studio 2005.
Integrated workflow solutions help to automate an organization's business processes and can provide tracking, auditing, and alerts. Examples of workflow solutions include change management and proposal management systems, specialized timesheet applications, and integration with other LOB applications such as customer relationship management. Customers can customize Project Server workflows to support their business requirements.
For more information about Office SharePoint Server 2007, see Integration with Office SharePoint Server 2007. For more information about workflow solutions, see Developer Introduction to Workflows for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and SharePoint Server 2007 and the Enterprise Content Management Starter Kit provided in the Office SharePoint Server 2007 SDK.
General PSI Features
The Project Server Interface (PSI) enables all client applications, including Project Professional 2007, Project Web Access, and back-end LOB applications, to access Project Server data. The PSI is built and programmed with the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 and provides all of its advantages, such as ease of development, security, error handling, and garbage collection.
In Project Server 2003, much data and functionality is available only with Project Professional 2003 or by direct database access. The PSI in Project Server 2007 removes much of that restriction. Unlike the Project Data Service (PDS) in Project Server 2003, the PSI provides a comprehensive interface to business objects in Project Server 2007, such as Project, Resource, Calendar, Custom Field, Security, and Timesheet.
Types of APIs
All of the PSI is accessed through Web services. Each PSI Web service typically contains a base class with several to many methods plus related DataSet classes. The PSI contains three general kinds of APIs:
Generic APIs that expose the Project Server functionality with an emphasis on ease of use and organization for third-party developers. These APIs are well-documented. There are 18 generic Web services in the PSI, with base classes such as Project, Calendar, and Resource. In addition, the LoginForms and LoginWindows Web services provide generic methods for programmatic Project Server logon and logoff.
Project-specific APIs that are geared for performance and usually target Project Web Access features. They may combine or batch multiple API calls. The project-specific APIs are available through the Shared Service Provider URL, but have only the public methods documented. The Authentication, PWA, and View classes are designed for specific Project Web Access and Project Professional use.
APIs that are limited to use only by Project Professional. The WinProj class includes methods with parameters that can contain large amounts of binary data. Only the public methods of these APIs are documented.
Project Web Access and Project Professional use the generic PSI Web services as well as the limited and Project-specific APIs. For descriptions of the PSI Web services, see Namespaces in the PSI.
The Authentication, PWA, View, and WinProj Web services are not supported for third-party development. These interfaces can change in service packs or later versions of Project Server.
The PSI is factored to match the business objects. That is, each PSI Web method is associated with a business object such as Calendar, OutlineCode, or Resource. The PSI is the interface to the business objects. Because the business layer provides reusable business logic components, different applications that interact with Project Server data use the same business logic. The PSI helps to solve the problems in Project 2003, where developers sometimes had to re-implement Project Server business logic in PDS extensions.
Each PSI method is implemented with a separate interface that interacts with the client by using strongly typed data. For example, the QueueCreateProject method in the Project Web service accepts the parameter dataset of type ProjectDataSet. The ProjectDataSet class is derived from the DataSet type. Development with the PSI is easier than with the PDS because of type checking in the .NET Framework and IntelliSense completion in Visual Studio.
Project Server 2007 uses exception handling of the .NET Framework. All errors are logged in the server, at the top of the PSI stack. Some errors are reported to the client and some are reported only on the server. Some errors send a simple report to the client, such as a SoapException object, and also record a detailed report on the server.
Unlike the PDS in Project Server 2003, you do not need to extend the PSI to access Project Server data because the PSI already encompasses the Project Server functionality needed for client development. You can add a .NET assembly with its own Web service that provides new functionality and calls other PSI methods or inherits from PSI classes. A new assembly also needs to provide the business logic and database access needed for the new functionality.
For more information about how to develop with the PSI and use the DataSet types, see Working with the PSI and DataSets. For an introduction to the detailed reference for PSI namespaces, classes, methods, properties, events, and related assemblies, see PSI Reference Overview.
PDS Compatibility
To port an application from Project Server 2003 to Project Server 2007, you must set a Web reference to each PSI Web service you need and change all PDS calls to PSI calls. You must also change the processing of XML requests to and replies from the PDS to processing of the PSI DataSet objects and other parameters.
The PSI supports all PDS methods that apply to Project Server 2007. The PSI includes the SoapXMLRequest interface that supports applications built using the PDS. The PSI does not support PDS extensions that were built for Project Server 2003, because those extensions usually use direct database access. For more information about PDS compatibility and guidelines for porting PDS extensions, see PDS Parity in PSI Web Services.
Project Versions
Project Server 2007 introduces functionality that replaces project versions. You can use the following in Project Server:
Create a Version custom field and lookup table, available through the CustomFields and LookupTable PSI Web services, to access project level metadata.
Task level publishing flags and project-level availability settings to control the impact of a project on the organization.
Usage Scenarios for the PSI
The PSI is designed to complement the capabilities of Project Professional, rather than provide a server-based alternative for all Project Professional functions. Following are some usage scenarios that the PSI supports for server-side projects and calculations.
Project proposals Create placeholder projects during project initiation and use project custom fields to tag the project with information needed for the initiation and approval process. Add tasks to identify project phases for key milestones or deliverables. When approved, project proposals can evolve into full-scale projects that are managed with Project Professional.
Maintenance projects Create placeholder projects to use with resource plans. Reserve or book time against resources for maintenance work or base business. Maintenance projects generally do not have tasks.
Financial projects Create projects for time capture through the timesheet for integration with a financial system. Create a hierarchy of financial codes that reflect the cost breakdown structure of the financial system. These projects do not require scheduling or status updates.
Integrate with project accounting systems Capture the resource costs and expenses associated with projects to feed financial and billing systems and for budget comparison purposes. Synchronize tasks, resources, and assignments between the systems. Capture timesheet data in one system to feed the other (which timesheet is used depends on needs of the organization or of individual projects).
Integrate with work or task management systems Synchronize tasks and assignments between Project Server and systems such as Microsoft Visual Studio Team System (VSTS). The 2005 version of VSTS integrates with Project Standard or Project Professional, but integration with Project Server requires developing components using the PSI. For more information about VSTS, see Visual Studio 2005 Team System: Overview.
Process updates from team members For projects that are not actively managed, automatically update projects on the server with progress and other changes from project team members. Projects can be updated and republished without a project manager reviewing the results or making adjustments to the plan.
What the PSI Does Not Do
The PSI helps developers integrate Project Server with other applications, as described in the previous section. However, there are some things the PSI does not do. The following sections include actions that require Project Professional 2007.
Local Data
Manipulating data in local projects (.mpp files). For example, defining cost rate tables or availability contours for local resources.
Defining or editing local base calendars or resource calendars, including calendar exceptions.
Defining local custom fields. However, the PSI does support editing local custom field values on tasks, resources, and assignments.
Enterprise Data
Checking out or editing the Enterprise Global Template. The Enterprise Global data in Project Server 2007 is a set of binary data tables in the Published database, not a project template as in earlier versions of Project Server.
Defining or editing enterprise calendars. The Calendar methods manage only calendar exceptions.
Master Projects and Cross-Project Links
Creating master projects and inserting subprojects.
Scheduling a critical path across a master project.
Creating cross-project links.
Requesting or performing resource leveling.
Changing the resource on an assignment. However, you can use the PSI to delete the assignment and create a new one.
Deleting or replacing a resource that has actual work accepted (actuals).
Changing a resource type between Work, Material, and Cost.
Creating or editing resource calendars.
When adding a resource to a task, the PSI does not automatically redistribute work the way Project Professional does. It is up to the developer to choose and explicitly set the work distribution on the assignments.
Cost Resources
- Editing, creating, or deleting cost resources and assignments using the Project Web service. The Resource Web service methods can create cost resources but cannot edit them.
Work Contours
Editing timephased data.
The UpdateStatus method in the Statusing Web service can edit timephased actuals on assignments after the project manager updates and publishes the assignment data.
Setting or changing the assignment contour type (such as flat, back-loaded, or front-loaded).
Baselines and Earned Value
Saving a baseline or editing baseline data.
Setting a progress date.
Calculating variance and earned value.
Interactive Scheduling
- Supporting interactive scheduling. Because Project Server does interactions asynchronously, interactive scheduling should be done with Project Professional.
- Defining a work breakdown structure (WBS) code mask.
Changing the task type (fixed work, duration, or units).
Changing whether a task is effort-driven.
Changing task fixed-cost accrual.
Changing the content of TASK_NOTES. The PSI can read only the text part of the task notes which are .rtf binary data. However, you can edit assignment notes (ASSN_NOTES), which are text data. The Reporting database does not include task or assignment notes.
Creating or editing recurring tasks.
Assigning or changing the task calendar on existing tasks.
Creating a new task with a task calendar.
Changing the value of TASK_IGNORES_RES_CAL (task ignores resource calendar).
Summary Tasks
Editing summary task fields that are normally rolled up from the subtask. Server-side projects always roll up summary information, instead of setting information on the summary task and pushing it down to the subtasks. You can edit only the following on summary tasks:
Task dependencies
Non-formula custom fields
TASK_FIXED_COST_ACCRUAL (set the value only when creating the task)
Creating or changing assignments on summary tasks.
We recommend that you do not make assignments on summary tasks with Project Professional or any other method. For more information, see Project Scheduling on the Server.
For the project summary task, the PSI limitations are the same as for Project Professional. The PSI can edit budget assignments—including cost budgets.
Project-level Calculation Options
Changing a project type between Schedule From Start (SFS) and Schedule From Finish (SFF). The PSI can create a project as either SFS or SFF, but once created it can be changed only in Project Professional.
Changing the project base calendar (CAL_UID) after project creation.
Changing options for calculations. You can use the PSI to set the following calculation options when the project is created, but changing the options requires Project Professional (on the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Calculation tab).
Project Scheduling on the Server
In general, Project Server scheduling works the same way as scheduling in Project Professional. However, there are a few differences and limitations in server-side scheduling.
**Earned value not calculated **The scheduling engine on Project Server does not calculate the earned value fields: ACWP, BAC, BCWP, BCWS, CPI, CV, CV%, EAC, SPI, SV, SV%, TCPI, VAC, Duration Variance, Start Variance, Finish Variance, Cost Variance, and Work Variance. If a project has values for these fields and the project is updated on the server, the field values do not change. However, you can duplicate some of the earned value fields by using custom fields, such as the variance fields. The Project Server scheduling engine does update custom fields.
**Single project scheduling only **Project Server schedules only the current project, when changes are made through task status updates, changing projects with the PSI, or with Project Web Access. If the current project has links to other projects, subprojects, or master projects, the linked projects are not changed.
You can handle the server-side scheduling limitations in the following ways:
Open projects in Project Professional and save them back to Project Server.
Do not report the fields that are not updated by Project Server scheduling.
Note in the reports data that may be stale.
There are flags in the Reporting database and the cubes that allow you to detect when some project data is not updated. For information, see the MSP_EpmProject table in the Reporting database schema reference (ProjectServer_ReportingDB.chm in the Project 2007 SDK download).
ProjectEarnedValueIsStale Indicates the earned value fields are stale.
ProjectRollupsAreStale Indicates that a subproject is updated in the Draft database, but the master project is not updated. The rolled-up values from the subproject are stale.
ProjectHierarchyNotSynchronized The master project is not synchronized with its children. That happens when the child projects are published explicitly, not as part of the master project publishing.
ProjectCalculationsAreStale Project Professional saved a project without calculating the schedule (that is, the calculation mode is set to Manual on the Calculation tab in the Options dialog box).
ProjectGhostTaskAreStale Similar to ProjectHierarchyNotSynchronized, but warns on cross-project link data. It is possible that no master project exists, but the project data on one side of the link is newer than on the other side.
Following are the other differences between the way scheduling works in Project Server and in Project Professional:
**Roll-down of actuals **Project Server rolls down actual work values for material resource assignments to the work resources. Project Professional rolls down actuals for material resource assignments to material resources.
**Assignments on summary tasks **Actuals on the server are not added automatically to a summary task assignment, because that would bypass the approval process in Project Server. In Project Professional, when you add actuals to a subtask, the actuals are also added for an assignment for the summary task. The Project Professional behavior can be confusing for a user.
Project Server deletes actuals on a summary task assignment if the subtask duration shortens or the finish date is changed. A future version of Project Professional will change the roll down of actuals and addition of actuals to summary task assignments to match the behavior of Project Server.
We recommend that you do not make assignments on summary tasks.
About Accessing the Project Server Databases
Developers are strongly discouraged from directly accessing the Draft, Published, or Archive Project Server database through Microsoft SQL Server queries. Making direct changes in the Project Server database tables can damage referential integrity and interfere with database access through the Project Server Queuing Service.
There is nothing to actively prevent you from using direct programmatic database access to update data. You should be aware that the Project Professional cache, the Publishing database and the Reporting database all rely on a cache synchronization protocol that can be disrupted by direct data editing. If you damage your Project Server databases or corrupt Project Professional client-side caches by using direct access to change data, be warned that product support won't be able to help!
Applications that directly access the Draft, Published, or Archive database also are dependent on the database schemas, which can change in service packs or later versions of Project Server 2007. Furthermore, applications that directly access the databases lose the built-in Project Server security, common business logic, tracking, audits, error checking, reporting, workflow, and other features. You would likely need to rewrite such an application for Project Server 2007 updates.
For all of these reasons, Project Professional and Project Web Access do not make direct calls to the Draft, Published, or Archive database; neither should any other application that integrates with Project Server.
The Draft, Published, and Archive database schemas are not documented. You can use the Reporting database to help generate reports, and the Reporting database schema is documented in the Project 2007 SDK download. You can also extend the Reporting database to include external data for integrated reporting solutions.
For more information about the Reporting database, see Using the Reporting Database.
Project Server Events
In earlier versions of Project Server, SQL Server triggers are the only way to invoke custom code based on events. Triggers require knowledge of Project Server internal processes, and can reduce system performance. Project Server 2007 provides public events that enable development of custom processes such as adding and enforcing business rules, validation, data processing, notification services, and workflow. Server-side events greatly increase the value of Project Server as a development platform.
The Project Server eventing platform includes the Project Server Eventing Service and a Project Web Access administration page for viewing a list of events and registering application event handlers. With the Project Server eventing platform, developers can:
Extend Project Server functionality with custom event handlers and associate them with events raised by Project Server.
Send data to other applications or receive data from applications using event handlers.
Cancel a Project Server process, with a pre-event handler that implements custom business logic.
Associate multiple event handlers with an event, and determine the sequence of execution.
Invoke workflows and send or receive messages from a workflow.
Client applications can raise server-side events when they interact with Project Server 2007. Clients interact with Project Server exclusively through the PSI, and PSI calls invoke business objects that act as event sources. Third-party developers can also override base abstract classes for event handlers. The assembly needs to make only the class name, not the method name, available to the Project Server eventing platform. The implementation class also enables type checking when registering an event handler and during run time.
Project Server does not provide transactions across an event. To help insulate the core Project Server process from badly written event receivers, all event receivers run in a different application domain than Project Server. Event handler crashes do not affect the Project Server process. It is the developer's responsibility to manage exceptions, perform cleanup, and maintain data consistency if an exception occurs. For more information about the eventing model, see Project Server Events.

I et nyt forskningsarbejde, offentliggjort i Frontiers in Immunology, har britiske forskere analyseret resultaterne i 18 tidligere offentliggjort studier, der samlet involverede 846 personer, i forhold til de biologiske virkninger af meditation, yoga, åndedrætsøvelser, Qi gong og Tai Chi. Samlet set, siger forfatterne, viser studierne at disse sind-krop øvelser lader til at undertrykke gener og genetiske systemer som fremmer betændelse.
Betændelse kan midlertidigt forstærke immunsystemet, og det kan være beskyttende mod infektion og skader, skriver forfatterne i deres papir. Men i nutidens samfund, hvor stress primært er af psykologisk karakter, kan kroppens betændelsesreaktion blive kronisk og kan skade både det fysiske og det mentale helbred.
Kommentar: Delvist oversat af Sott.net fra Yoga and meditation can change your genes
Researchers found that people who practiced these activities regularly had fewer signs of inflammation, including a decrease in their production of inflammatory proteins. This signals "the reversal of the molecular signature of the effects of chronic stress," they wrote, which may translate to a reduced risk of inflammation-related diseases and conditions.
Environment and lifestyle can both affect which genes are turned on and off, and that can have real effects on disease risk, longevity and even which traits get passed on to future generations. Stressful events, for example, can activate the fight-or-flight response and trigger a chain reaction of stress-related changes in the body—including activating specific genes involved in making proteins that produce inflammation.
Lead author Ivana Buric, a PhD student in Coventry University's Brain, Belief and Behaviour Lab in England, says her team was surprised to see that different types of mind-body techniques had such similar effects at the genetic level. "Sitting meditation is quite different than yoga or Tai Chi," she said in an email, "yet all of these activities—when practiced regularly—seem to decrease the activity of genes involved in inflammation."
This is a relatively new field of research, she adds, and it's likely that similar benefits could be obtained from other lifestyle changes like healthy eating and exercise. There aren't yet enough studies to know how activities like yoga compare to other types of physical activity in terms of altering gene expression.
Buric says the existing studies suggest that mind-body interventions "cause the brain to steer our DNA processes along a path which improves our well being." She also emphasizes that inherited genes are not static and that DNA activity can depend on things people can control. "By choosing healthy habits every day, we can create a gene activity pattern that is more beneficial for our health," she says. "Even just 15 minutes of practicing mindfulness seems to do the trick."

Is it really October already? How the heck did that happen? It snuck right past me, probably while I was watching way too many episodes of a show my sister got me addicted to this past week (anyone else watch Revenge?).
While it seems like everyone else is celebrating all things autumn, I'm going to hold on to summer as long as possible. Don't get me wrong, I love fall flavors and foods, but it's still 90 degrees here in Texas so those flavors don't taste quite right yet. Plus I'm still getting loads of fresh, tasty tomatoes and peppers at the farmer's market! Don't worry apples, pumpkin and squash, you'll have your turn, just not quite yet.
When I saw this colorful display of peppers at the farmer's market I knew I wanted to make them into salsa. One, because they're so pretty and two, because salsa is pretty much my favorite thing in the world. I will use any excuse to make (or eat) salsa!
Not only do these peppers make for a beautiful salsa, they also make for a nutritious snack or topping. The pigment in fruits and vegetables isn't just for fun, it also signifies various vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It's nature's way of helping us eat a balanced diet. Notice how the healthiest foods also seem to be the most colorful?
Here's the breakdown:
Red produce: vitamin A (beta carotene), vitamin c, lycopene, manganese and fiber.
Orange produce: vitamins a, c, b6, potassium, lycopene and fiber.
Yellow produce: vitamin a, manganese, magnesium, potassium and fiber.
Green produce: calcium, magnesium, iron, lutein and folate.
Blue produce: loaded with fiber and antioxidants.
White produce: vitamins c, k, fiber, folate and allicin.
And that's just a general overview, each color produce packs quite the health punch, so go ahead and taste the rainbow.... vegetable rainbow that is.
Bell Pepper Rainbow Salsa
One of the great things about making your own salsa is that exact measurements aren't needed. Add your ingredients and taste as you go until you like the flavor!
- 4 Large (8 small) Bell Peppers in various colors
- 2-3 Roma Tomatoes
- 2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
- 1/4-1/2 Cup Onion (for a milder flavor onion, use purple)
- 1-2 Jalapeno or Serrano Pepper
- Sea Salt and Fresh Ground Pepper to Taste
Dice all vegetables and place in a large bowl. Add salt and pepper until you've achieved the taste you like. Store in the refrigerator. Tastes best if made at least a half hour before serving. Eat with chips or use it as a topping with your favorite dish. Enjoy!
-This is meant to be a simple recipe, but feel free to add cilantro, parsley, lemon or lime juice, cumin or any other ingredients that strike your fancy. Make it your own!
-If you don't want the salsa to taste too spicy be sure to remove the seeds from the jalapeno or serrano before dicing, or just leave them out altogether.
Have you boarded the fall train yet?
What's your favorite fall food?
Or better yet, what's your favorite summer food that you're not ready to let go of?

Dec. 8, 2010 — Dr. Jeff Froyd, the TEES director of academic development, will participate in an invitation-only meeting to help the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) Jan. 5 in the White House Conference Center in Washington, D.C. PCAST will undertake a study that will make recommendations to President Barack Obama on how to enhance science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education from a student¹s transition from high school through earning a technical, community college or bachelor¹s degree to create a STEM-capable workforce. Froyd is also the director of Academic Development in the Office of the Dean of Faculties and Associate Provost at Texas A&M University. He previously served as project director for the Foundation Coalition, an NSF Engineering Education Coalition among six institutions that systematically renewed their undergraduate engineering curricula, assessed their renewed curricula, institutionalized many of their innovations, and extensively shared their results with the engineering education community and specifically with a number of schools.
Froyd has authored or co-authored more than 50 papers on curriculum innovation, curriculum integration, assessment of curricular innovations and the process of curricular change. In addition, he offered more than 30 workshops on curriculum development, course design, assessment and faculty development. He has also served for seven years as an ABET program evaluator in both electrical engineering and computer engineering. PCAST is an advisory group of the nation's leading scientists and engineers appointed by President Obama to augment the science and technology advice available to him from inside the White House and from cabinet departments and other federal agencies. PCAST is consulted about and often makes policy recommendations concerning the full range of policy issues in the domains of science, technology and innovation.

Shared Libraries
The name of a static libraries file is like
libname.a, while
a shared libraries file is named
libname.so.x.y.z, where:
xis the major version number. It is incremented whenever the interface to the library changes.
yis the minor version number.
zis the optional release number.
This is the "real name" of a library file, the name of the file which contains it. In addition, a library has a "soname", the real name with only the major version number, which is a symbolic link to the real name. It may also have a "linker name", without any version number, a symbolic link to a "soname".
- Configure dynamic linker run-time bindings.
ldconfig creates the necessary symbolic links and cache
/etc/ld.so.cache) for use by the run-time linker,
ld.so) to the most recent shared libraries
found in the directories specified on the command line, in the file
/etc/ld.so.conf, and in the trusted directories
/usr/lib and
Libraries listed in
/etc/ld.so.preload will take precedence
over the standard set.
This process can be overriden with the environment variable
LD_LIBRARY_PATH: a colon-separated set of directories
where libraries should be searched for first,
before the standard set of directories.

The trend of teams reverting to versions of logos from their past isn't exclusive to American sports – the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League are getting in on the act.
From 1996 to 2012, the logo was a simple outline of a white horse galloping. In 2013, a drop shadow was added to the horse, and he was in front of a red circle with a black and white outline.
