Rapeseed Oil
Rapeseed oil comes from oilseed rape, a root vegetable and cousin of mustard cabbage. The name is derived from the Old English term for turnip rapum. And yes, it comes from those yellow fields you can see in late spring.We sow it in late August on our farm in County Louth, by April the yellow flowers on the plant make it easy to spot . We harvest the crop in late July, then clean and dry it.To extract the natural oil from the seed, it is squeezed in a mechanical press without the addition of any chemicals or heat. Cold pressed means that the composition of the oil isn't altered by heating. It isn't the most efficient process but this oil isn't about efficiency it's about taste and purity. The oil that is extracted is titally natural.The seed husk that is left over is called cake and this is mixed with other cereals into a safe and nutritious animal feed or some people use it in their solid fuel burners since it is a very low carbon renewable fuel.
The oil has delicious earthy, nutty taste –it is suitable in dressings, stir fry, roasting, dunking.
Compared to olive oil it has half of the saturated fat and a much higher natural omega 3 content, the one in our diet that is often lacking.

Back in the day, the most popular products that painters used were lead-based. Later studies showed that lead paint removal may be necessary for places in Los Angeles because it can pose a threat to health when the paint particles start to break down with regular wear-and-tear over time. To find out if there is a hidden hazard at your L.A. property, you can hire a restoration company like Aeroscopic Environmental to complete a lead paint inspection. We have expert equipment for discovering lead's presence at establishments in L.A. and can do lead paint testing to determine if there is a risk present that will require restoration work to remediate. *Aeroscopic functions as a general contractor and can associate a certified vendor for Asbestos and Lead. Certified Asbestos Consultant on staff.*
Lead Paint Inspections to Avoid Health Risks in L.A.
Any establishment in Los Angeles that was constructed prior to 1978 needs to undergo lead paint testing, as there is a good chance that lead paint may be lurking within the structure, and there is an even better chance that the paint could exist in more places than one. When a surface that is coated in lead paint starts to deteriorate, it releases tiny lead particles into the air that can be inhaled by building occupants and harm the human body. Lead paint inspection can let property owners know if they need to have work done to avoid respiratory and nervous system issues that are associated with lead paint exposure.
Lead Paint Testing Done by Experts in Los Angeles
People in L.A. can feel confident when they hire Aeroscopic Environmental to handle their lead paint testing because we conduct a complete examination of the property which includes lead paint inspections on all surfaces since we know its use was prolific in the past. Our restoration experts are highly trained in safety procedures and follow a strict protocol for Los Angeles lead paint inspections as to not exasperate the issue. Once we complete the lead paint testing, we can work to design a remediation plan that will completely clear the L.A. space of any possible hazards.
Spaces That Need Lead Paint Testing in L.A. Structures
Lead-based paint was banned in 1978, but before it was known to be harmful, painters coated the exterior and interior buildings all over L.A.. Therefore, many places around Los Angeles still contain it, and by this point could very well be threatening the well-being of those who frequent the space, so lead paint inspection should take place as soon as possible. At Aeroscopic Environmental, our experts can perform lead paint testing on windows, doors, stairs, and walls inside, as well as exterior walls, decks, fences, and soil outside. Many people in Los Angeles don't realize where lead paint particles can end up, but luckily our lead paint inspection services will uncover them all.

Proctor Information
All online courses and Credit by Examinations at TTU K-12 include remote proctoring that alleviates the need for a physical proctor.
Our remote proctoring solution, Proctorio, allows students to take the online exam anytime, anywhere, once they are ready, on their own schedule. There is no need to secure a proctor, arrange an exam time, and travel to the agreed-upon testing location. Students can take the exam from their home computer at any time.
Students are required to have a webcam (USB or internal) with a microphone when taking the exam. Students are also required to use the Google Chrome browser and download the Proctorio Chrome Extension before attempting their exam. You will be required to have a valid photo ID and will be asked to test your microphone, speakers, and scan your testing environment before beginning your exam.
Proctorio's remote proctoring service is used with some quizzes and exams at TTU K-12. Proctorio may record your webcam, your screen, or other actions during the exam session and share that information with your instructor.
What Information Does Proctorio Collect From Students?
Unlike other online proctoring services, Proctorio does not employ the use of biometrics or external human proctors to monitor the student while they take the exam. Proctorio will record the students' identity via webcam and, depending upon the exam settings controlled by individual instructors, monitor your exam attempt in various ways. A multitude of privacy provisions have been established to ensure student privacy and FERPA compliance.
- Proctorio has no file access of any kind. Proctorio cannot and will not access any of your personal files or documents.
- During an exam Proctorio may take screenshots of your desktop, detect the number of computer monitors connected to your computer, or record your web traffic. This information will only be recorded if the teacher has enabled it within the exam settings. The information is stored with zero-knowledge encryption, which means the data is encrypted both in transit and at rest.
- Once an exam is completed, Proctorio no longer has access to this information.
- It is impossible for anyone at Proctorio or any of its affiliates to view exam recordings. They are only accessible to authorized users at TTU K-12 and through its Blackboard system.
- Proctorio never stores academic information from any of its users.
Is Online Proctoring Required For All Online Exams?
All online Credit By Exams (CBEs) and final course exams require online proctoring. Some courses may also have proctoring on midterm or unit exams.
What Will I Need?
Students will need a webcam with microphone (internal or USB), their student photo ID, the Google Chrome browser, the Proctorio extension, and a quiet private location with a reliable internet connection. It is the student's responsibility to ensure these requirements are met.
What If I Have A Technical Problem?
Check to make sure that you are 1) using the Chrome browser and 2) have the proper extension installed. If you continue to experience technical issues, Proctorio offers 24/7 technical support to students via email, or phone at (480) 428-4089 or toll-free (866) 948-9248.
What About Accessibility And Those Students With Special Needs?
Proctorio is VPAT certified, 508 compliant, and fully accessible to those with special needs.
How Does It Work?
Proctorio requires the use of the Google Chrome web browser and uses the Proctorio extension (see "How do I prepare?") Proctorio is active when you log in to the exam and is gone when you log out. During the exam, a system of computers captures your movements and sends your video and other data to your instructor for review. Proctorio will flag activity that might not be allowed. Your instructor will then be able to review the video and data to decide if any action is necessary.
Proctorio has provided a full setup guide for students with videos.
What Do I Need To Take My Exam?
- A quiet and distraction free area you feel comfortable taking your exam. Prepare to be seated here for the entire duration of the exam
- Any computer with Google Chrome and the Proctorio extension
- A reliable internet connection
- A working webcam and microphone if required by your instructor
- Exams will require a photo ID. Please have it ready.
How Do I Prepare?
- You need to use a regular computer (Windows/Mac computer or laptop). You cannot take the exams from mobile devices (e.g., iPhone, iPad, Android device, etc). You need a working webcam and microphone (depending on the options your instructor has selected).
- You must use the Google Chrome web browser and the Proctorio Extension.
- Install the Proctorio extension for Google Chrome. It takes less than 30 seconds. The exam that requires Proctorio will usually prompt you to install the extension if you need it.
- Have a photo ID card available. You will be asked to hold up your ID to document you are the test taker.
- Be ready for room scans. Proctorio will ask you to do a room scan; turning your web camera in a 360-degree pan to look at the room. Proctorio may ask more than once if the program hears noises: the application is trying to ensure there is nobody else in the room.
Questions And Troubleshooting
How Do I Perform A Room Scan?
You may be randomly asked to perform a room scan during your exam. If this happens, lift your webcam or laptop and slowly turn it around to give a 360-degree view of your exam environment. Do not move the camera too fast or it won't provide a clear video and you may be asked to perform the scan again. It is important to show each corner of the room and your desktop area.
Once you are finished, return your webcam or laptop as close to its original position as best you can.
If you're using a desktop computer with a built-in webcam (e.g. iMac), it might be difficult to lift and rotate the entire computer. You can either rotate a mirror in front of the webcam or ask your instructor for further instruction.
Failure to perform the room scan properly may result in a violation of exam procedures.
Reinstalling The Proctorio Extension
Sometimes you need to reinstall to update the extension. Remove it and reinstall it:
- Go to Customize and Control Google Chrome (three dots in the upper right of the browser)
> More Tools >
- Find the Proctorio extension and click the Remove from Chrome (trash can) icon.
- Go back to the quiz and it will prompt you to install of the extension.
I'm Still Having Problems!
You can call or email Proctorio Support: (480) 428-4089 or (866) 948-9248 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
You can also access the Proctorio Student Support center from within your course once you click on the exam link by clicking on "Learn more about Proctorio".
Live Help
If you need help, click the shield in the upper right-hand corner of the Blackboard page to activate Proctorio's Live Chat.
Students and parents must understand that this remote recording device is purchased and controlled by the student and that recording from any private residence must be done with the permission of any person residing in that residence. To avoid any concerns in this regard, students should select private spaces for the testing.

#We Stand Together
"Sad; angry; distressed; ashamed; sick; numb; frightened." These are some of the sentiments our member organisations and users of our services have conveyed since the brutal and senseless attack on the young Kurdish man in Croydon last week.
This young man / child came to the UK alone, like many asylum seekers, seeking our safety and protection. We as a society failed him. This vicious attack, fuelled by hatred and ignorance has no place in the Croydon that we are proud of and that our families live in. We as a community need to learn lessons from this incident and look to how this can never happen again on our doorstep.
To start the dialogue, a community event, #We Stand Together, has been organised for Tuesday 11 April 2017 to bring agencies and groups from private, statutory and voluntary sector together to show their solidarity and commitment to showing that Croydon is a borough where refugee and asylum seekers are welcome. To show that Croydon is a borough where those fleeing persecution and injustice will be protected and given sanctuary. The event is also, most importantly, an opportunity for members from refugee backgrounds to share their experiences and stories. An opportunity to have their voices heard by those who have the power to determine the level of protection and support that they receive if they come to Croydon.
Please share this event (download a flyer here) and encourage people from refugee and migrant communities to attend so that they can feel reassured, and also they can guide those in authority on solutions to improve the quality of life of minority communities in Croydon.
#We Stand Together
Tuesday 11 April 2017
CVA Resource Centre 82 London Rd, West Croydon CR0 2TB
6pm to 8pm.
Doors open 5.30pm
Spaces are limited so please arrive early.
Invited speakers include the Leader of Croydon Council, the Metropolitan Police Borough Commander, the Refugee Council, local MPs, faith leaders and volunteers from refugee organisations. The Mayor of London has also been invited.
For more info contact Bhupendra at CVA, email@example.com

The National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing professional licensure for engineers and surveyors.
In the United States, engineers and surveyors are licensed at the state and territory level. U.S. licensure began in 1891 when California passed legislation to regulate surveyors. Engineering followed in 1907 when Wyoming began requiring licensure for both engineers and surveyors. As more states enacted similar legislation over the next decade, U.S. licensing boards began to see a need for a national council to help improve uniformity of laws and to promote mobility of licensure.
NCEES was created in 1920 for these reasons. Since its founding, NCEES has focused on providing services to advance licensure and facilitate mobility among the licensing jurisdictions. These services include
- Engineering exams
- Surveying exams
- Exam prep materials
- Records program
- Credentials evaluations
- CPC tracking and more
Learn more about NCEES through the NCEES annual report.
The Council's members are the 69 engineering and surveying licensing boards from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. These boards are divided into four geographic zones: Central, Northeast, Southern, Western.
Members of each licensing board attend the NCEES annual meeting every August to vote on licensure issues and elect new NCEES officers at the business sessions. The first annual meeting was held in Chicago in 1920. The individual zones also meet separately each spring and during the annual meeting.
Strategic Plan
The NCEES strategic plan outlines the goals and strategies for carrying out the NCEES vision and mission. The board of directors regularly reviews and updates the plan to ensure that it is relevant and effective.

13 Terrifyingly Awesome Horror Movie Soundtracks
The door slams downstairs. The girl, alone and in only a towel from her shower, slowly inches down the stairs to see what the noise was. With each step the music expands the tension, your heart beats faster, your palms sweat, and you start yelling for her to run not go into the basement. BAM! The theme music begins, the killer or monster or combination thereof steps into camera, and the chase is on. Our heroine tries her hardest, but in the end, she's just another victim. The stalking, the chasing and the killing were scary on their own, but not nearly as terrifying as those elements narrated by a genius score.

Cot Mobiles
Cot mobiles can be attached to the side of a baby's cot and those with multi-use attachments can be attached to car seats for on the go use. Mobiles are available from a wide variety of manufacturers with varying degrees of sophistication, features and price points. Obaby, Little Bird Told Me, Lollipop Lane and Kidsline provide manual windup mobiles that play music for approx. 4mins and have a rotating canopy of sweet teddies. The latter two brands also provide matching nursery accessories to their mobiles such as bedding. Cot mobiles from brands Tiny Love, Fisher-Price and Baby Einstein are battery operated and provide a much greater variety of melodies and duration of music some of which some also come with remote controls. Other stimulating features to consider are moving parts on the mobile carousal, light up toys and light shows that project onto the ceiling. In addition, the base of the mobile can offer added value sometimes housing light up scenes, mirrors and interactive toys and in some cases is detachable for play as baby grows.

Monday 17th September 2018
Our first meeting of the new season got off to a flying start, thanks to the contributions of our guests and members, both returning and new.
It was great to see a packed meeting room filled with lots of nervous energy as we had six new faces coming to see what Chaucer Speakers Club is all about.
Chaired by this year's President, Stewart, the meeting was treated to a new member's first prepared speech and it was an absolute knock out! Despite some initial nerves, the speaker delivered a touching and personal account of having started life in the UK as a citizen of Nowhere, he has overcome challenges and hurdles to become a proud home owner and bona fide UK citizen: Well done Les! We're looking forward to hearing more about your fascinating life.
Nerves of a different kind from one of our more experienced speakers, who took on a challenge from the Advanced Manual. Adrian had to choose a speech title from three on offer (which he had not seen before) and then with only 10 minutes preparation, deliver a Show Stopping Speech! He went for "Rugby is less of a sport than Football" and the result was an absolute Grand Slam!
After the break our Vice President, Jo, chaired the Impromptu Speaking session and it was brilliant to see all of our guests rise to the challenge of speaking on a topic without any time to prepare. Her theme was 'Journeys' and it was great to see so many would-be nervous public speakers take their first steps on the path towards greater speaking confidence.
Our next meeting will be on the 1st October and we've already got one new member signed up to give a speech. Suzanne will be in the Chair so we're in for an exciting and energetic meeting.
See you there!

"I'm so glad I was able to attend such a terrific workshop this past Saturday, kudos to you and Woody, everything was great. I was blown away by Woody's thoughtful and considerate teaching…I think it's great the way he sits down and gives as much time as a student needs." – H.M.
"Thanks again for a great weekend. In stating the obvious, it is always magic to hear you play and teach." – R.G.
"I had the privilege of enjoying one of Woody's weekend workshops. What a thrill. Woody was extremely gracious and patient. He presents the material in such a clear and simple way. My adrenaline was pumping just knowing I was learning from someone who is not only a great player, but also a direct link to some of the first generation guys." – R.F.
"I was honored to have attended the Dec. 4-5 workshops with Woody. Woody is a great player and teacher. A true gentleman. I'm so glad to have attended" – D.
"Just a note to say how much I liked the class on Saturday. Woody you are a great teacher and interesting historian. I learned about guys I never heard of who are great. The tape of the day is invaluable and my recording came out great, the songs are easy to learn while listening to the tape." – E.J.
"Woody – I just wanted to thank you again for the Gary Davis workshop last Sunday. You inspired me to try again at the age of 59 after many previous failures, and so far it's going really well. With gratitude." – J.W.
"Hey Woody, I really enjoyed the Mississippi workshop over the past three weeks. The material we covered is such a great foundation for 'the sound,' which is exactly what I wanted going into the workshop. So, I know where I want to go, and now I have the map." – H.H.
"Thank you for the workshop this past weekend in Berkeley. It was great fun, though my fingers were a bit sore by Sunday night I really appreciate your patient, easy-going teaching style, especially for those of us who are still new to the music world. I'm looking forward to working on the tunes, checking out some of your additional videos (Fretboard Logic) and hopefully attending future workshops as well. Thanks again for the inspiration!" – S.S.

Thursday 7th September 2017 - 09:00 to 09:50
INI Seminar Room 1
This talk is divided into three parts. In the first part, we will introduce the essential ideas in using Augmented Lagrangian/operator-splitting techniques for fast numerical algorithms for minimizing Euler's Elastica energy. In the 2nd part, we consider an Euler's elastica based image segmentation model. An interesting feature of this model lies in its preference of convex segmentation contour. However, due to the high order and non-differentiable term, it is often nontrivial to minimize the associated functional. In this work, we propose using augmented Lagrangian method to tackle the minimization problem. Especially, we design a novel augmented Lagrangian functional that deals with the mean curvature term differently as those ones in the previous works. The new treatment reduces the number of Lagrange multipliers employed, and more importantly, it helps represent the curvature more effectively and faithfully. Numerical experiments validate the efficiency of the proposed augmented Lagrangian method and also demonstrate new features of this particular segmentation model, such as shape driven and data driven properties. In the 3rd part, we will introduce some recent fast algorithms for minimizing Euler's elastica energy for interface problems. The method combine level set and binary representations of interfaces. The algorithm only needs to solve an Rodin-Osher-Fatemi problem and a re-distance of the level set function to minimize the elastica energy. The algorithm is easy to implement and fast with efficiency. The content of this talk is based joint works with Egil Bae, Tony Chan, Jinming Duan and Wei Zhu.

France, Germany face EU revolt over Treaty change
October 28, 2010
This story about the possibility of changing EU treaties to create tougher rules for euro zone countries was published by EurActiv on 28th October 2010.
European Commission Vice-President Viviane Reding is leading a growing chorus of opposition to plans for tougher euro zone rules, describing Franco-German plans to reopen the EU Treaties as "irresponsible" ahead of a European summit starting in Brussels today (28 October).
"I did not appreciate what happened in Deauville," Reding said, referring to the seaside town where France and Germany struck a deal last week to enshrine tougher rules for the euro zone in a new EU treaty.
"Do you remember what happened with the Lisbon Treaty? It took ten years to get it approved. It would be irresponsible to open that Pandora's Box," Reding told a press conference in Brussels yesterday (27 October).
In an interview with German paper Die Welt, Reding added that Paris and Berlin were "insulting" other nations by trying to impose decisions on the other EU member states.
The reaction from Paris did not wait long. "The terms this European commissioner uses to denigrate the France-German proposals are unacceptable and of the same tenor as the insulting language, which I will not forget, used against France during the controversy that she herself fuelled over the Roma," said Pierre Lellouche, the French minister in charge of European affairs.
Although Reding's line is shared by many others at the European Commission, the EU executive did not officially back the vice-president. "What was expressed by Vice-President Viviane Reding were her personal views," said spokesperson Olivier Bailly at a briefing yesterday.

Imagine, the perfect man submitting to imperfect authorities. Jesus purposed to do this because of his strong confidence in the sovereignty of his Father. This confidence is best revealed in the most preposterous of all trials. On the eve of his crucifixion Jesus will undergo six trials—three of them Jewish, and three of them Roman. As he stood before Pontius Pilate, the appointed governor in Jerusalem, Jesus kept silent in the face of the accusations that were brought against him. Into that context Pilate asks Jesus a question.
So Pilate said to him, "You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?" Jesus answered him, "You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. Therefore he who delivered me over to you has the greater sin." From then on Pilate sought to release him. . . (John 19:10-12).
This is a remarkable look into the mind of our Lord. He specifically states that Pilate's authority is God derived. To the appointed governor who assumed his power was received from the Roman government this must have been an unnerving reminder. It should not come as a surprise that from that point on Pilate does all he can do to release Jesus.
When Pilate's temporary resolve to do the right thing buckles under the Sanhedrin's pressure, Jesus' confidence in his Father's will does not. This is a good reminder of the importance of submitting to our imperfect human authorities even when their interests are so self-serving.
In God's plan he uses Pilate's weakness and the religious leader's jealousy to declare Jesus innocence while still insisting upon his crucifixion. Both of these elements were necessary in the plan of God in order that everyone might know that an innocent man had died in the place of the guilty (2 Cor. 5:21). Nine times in the gospel record Pilate will declare Jesus without guilt prior to his pronouncement of the death sentence (Matthew 27:24; Mark 15:14; Luke 23:4, 14, 15, 22; John 19:4, 6, 12).
Pilate's weak leadership, without him even being aware of it, is actually used by God to accomplish God's sovereign will in the life of Jesus. While the outcome of the trials is preposterous—how could one declare a man's innocence nine times and then call for his execution? The function of the trials is not—they declare a man innocent of his own crimes in order that his punishment may be put to a guilty party's account. This is exactly what Isaiah prophesied 700 years prior to Jesus crucifixion,
But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5).
As Jesus submitted to his imperfect human authorities he developed a deeper confidence in his Father's sovereign will. Therefore, he comes to the most pivotal moment of choice in the Garden of Gethsemane and submits to his Father's will with joy (Heb. 12:2).
Note the progression: (1) as a young boy, Jesus submitted to his parents, who, while imperfect had his best interest in view, (2) as a grown man Jesus submitted to the governing authorities, who were indifferent to his plight or condition, finally (3) Jesus submitted to those leaders who were opposed to his ministry and would be responsible for taking his life even though their intentions were self-serving and fueled by jealousy (John 11:47-50; 19:11).
Jesus grew in his ability to submit to imperfect human authorities by taking his eyes off of their imperfections, and placing them on his heavenly Father's perfections. It was His Father's will Jesus wanted to do whatever the cost. You and I will only go so far in our understanding of submission unless we grasp the truth that Jesus did: there is a hand we cannot see guiding the hands of those we can.
Because Jesus spent a life time practicing this truth he was prepared to answer Pilot's weak but abusive authority on the day of his crucifixion (John 19:10-11).
Jesus answered him, "You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above… (John 19:11).
Jesus got it. In his humility, he understood that God was able to use imperfect authorities to accomplish his will in one's life. He not only submitted, but he did so with a humble spirit and a right attitude (Phil. 2:5, NASV).
Think about the authorities God has placed over you. How are you responding to them? When others around you complain about their leaders, what do you say? Do you join in or show a sweet spirit of submission. Is your attitude one of respect even when those in authority might be disrespectful? Finally, and perhaps most importantly, do you submit even when you disagree?

It certainly is for building the immune system.Delete
Very interesting. I have never been one to worry too much about dirt. I always follow the 10 second rule - a quick blow and we're off! Alison x #mgReplyDeleteReplies
When I was pregnant with my babies I wouldn't even do that.Delete
I just love the title of this and completely agree with it! Thanks for sharing with #ReadWithMeReplyDelete
The title of this book just reminds me of eating mud as a child, oh and apparently as a toddler I wrapped a worm around my fist and sucked it, much to my Dad's horror! Urgh I was a disgusting child, but I was rarely ill, so maybe there is something in it, maybe a little dirt is beneficial. That said, I really hope no ones child does what I did! #MMBC xReplyDeleteReplies
Oh my goodness! My eldest has tried garden snail but not a worm! The book certainly seems to suggest that a little dirt may be beneficial and help with the immune system.Delete
Oh I like the sound of this book! I'll have to check it out. #GlobalBloggingReplyDeleteReplies
It sure makes for an interesting readDelete
I've got this book on order from the library. Looking forward to reading it now.ReplyDelete
I'm pleased I've inspired you to read itDelete
This sounds like a really interesting read and it's definitely a topic I agree with. I did fish a woodlouse out of my babies mouth a couple of months ago though, disgusting! #readwithmeReplyDeleteReplies
Yeuch hope baby was okDelete
I seriously love the name of that book! I'll have to admit, my kids are always outside and I shudder to think what gets into their system, they do have great immune systems though :) ... #globalbloggingReplyDeleteReplies
Getting outside is wonderful for the fresh air and building that immune system is a good thing right?Delete

sounds like a really fascinating read. We have become a society that is so afraid of germs and we forget that we need certain things to help build our natural immunity. With my background in Nursing I always worry how much people take antibiotics for viruses and reduce the effects of them working when they are actually needed. #mgReplyDeleteReplies
I've enjoyed reading it although I've not been able to read it in one sitting sadlyDelete
I love the sound of this book and actually came across it on amazon the other day. I'm definitely going to consider getting this as I really do believe that we need a better balance between germs and sanitising when it comes to little ones. I think we may have swung the pendulum a little too far! Great review, thanks for sharing it on #MarvMondays. EmilyReplyDelete

MADRID — A train traveling in northwestern Spain has derailed, toppling passenger cars on their sides and leaving at least one torn open as smoke rose into the air.
It was not immediately clear how many people were injured or if any had died.
Spanish state television showed images of the accident on high-speed tracks near the train station in Santiago de Compostola, 95 kilometers (60 miles) south of El Ferrol.
The train was headed to El Ferrol from Madrid on Wednesday.
Officials at the Interior Ministry or with Spain's state-owned Renfe passenger train company and the Adif rail infrastructure authority did not immediately answer telephone calls or return messages seeking comment.

On many transport networks, metro cars are coupled to offer sufficient capacity, especially during peak time. Whenever possible, the uncoupling of metro cars at specific times or on specific days can bring significant energy savings. That stems from the operation of fewer vehicles, thus reducing traction energy. This is only possible for older networks, as new metro systems are often composed of a single train allowing passengers to walk through the different cars.
The following steps must be taken when implementing the project:
- Investigate the passenger load during off-peak hours and weekends
- Organise meetings with all departments involved in the operations planning process
- Estimate the staff needs required for the additional shunting operations
- Adapt the timetables and vehicle operation planning
- Monitor the energy consumption before and after implementation of the action.

Idea Hunter Confidential: Howard Weinberg
Howard Weinberg is a senior partner for Deloitte Consulting in their Manhattan office. Howard is one of the lead partners in their strategy and innovation practice and he supports client consulting engagements around the world. Howard and I have worked together for five years now on a variety of projects–some of which were terrific learning experiences for me primarily because Howard is a true learning machine and terrific person to collaborate with. When I'm idea hunting–I invariably shoot Howard an email or give him a call. I almost always bag an invaluable idea from the excursion.
Boynton: In terms of advancing your goals and objectives in life (e..g, your company, research agenda, other projects, etc), where do you search for great ideas (websites, people, conferences, mags, etc.)? And can you describe how frequently you hunt in those places?
Weinberg: Here's a stream of consciousness about idea hunting…
Every day I look at: NYT, FT, WSJ, Techcrunch, Stratfor, Mashable
Every day I have conversations: Clayton Christensen is fond of reminding us over-educated types that "you can learn from everyone". I try to. Everyone I speak with knows interesting things that I don't know but that I am interested in. Whatever it is, I can always ask "What's new in —–." "What surprised you this year in —-." "What hard problems are you facing in —-." Or sometimes I can ask something more pointed where I have some dots that I want to connect. Eg, "Why doesn't big data and supercomputing seem to be changing macroeconomics the way it's changing other social sciences?"
Every day I Google about ideas that I have come across. I look at TED talks, interviews (eg, Lee Kwan Yu and Charlie Rose was great) but usually on airplanes where I have more slack time.
Periodically (not daily but frequently) I look at periodicals including the Economist, Science, New Scientist, the New Yorker, London Review of Books, Ad Age, Fiscal Times and some random other things using Pulse on my iPad. I skim HBR, SMR, Strategy + Business et al. I skim other sources using Pulse.
Periodically (less frequently) I look at some people's blogs, I don't read too many with any regularity.
I look for interesting titles to read, things that are thought of as seminal works, and that probably contain stimulating ideas. Eg, The Search for Security: A US Grand Strategy for the 21st Century. Or The Penguin Dictionary of Critical Theory. People like you know that I like this sort of discovery, so you recommend and send me books. (Thanks for Human Centered Design!) When I find an interesting author, I look for the author's other publications. I look for co-authors.
I go to museums, films, art galleries, opera, dance, and music. I study the work of architects and designers. And I do it in different countries. Artists and designers are trying to find new ideas to solve problems in their domain. I don't have the Nathan Myhrvold-like view of food, but I can understand finding ideas in that domain, too.
About once a month I go to a meeting/conference looking for ideas: I rarely attend large conferences unless they are directly relevant to something I am up to at the moment. Eg, I went to the Cleveland Clinic conference on innovation in medicine a couple of years ago when doing a lot of innovation in healthcare. (Here I exclude conferences at which I speak, which is usually a marketing activity, more than an idea-finding activity.) Conferences usually don't provide enough ideas/day for the days that they take up.
Networking opportunities are also too few per day. Smaller, shorter, more exclusive or focused conferences are more appealing, but there aren't that many of high quality. The economics are too tough. I do go to short sessions at, for example, the Council on Foreign Relations – future of the World Health Organization (does it have one), and at Columbia (one a few months ago on women and leadership roles had some fascinating research about women in village government in India by Esther Duflo, the star sociologist at MIT.) And I attend the BC Carroll School CEO luncheons in Boston whenever I can. I attend some conferences remotely on the web.
Boynton: When you find great ideas, be they from a conversation or something you scan, what do you do with them? Do you store them? How? Do you put them into play and show them to people? How do you handle interesting ideas once you find them?
Weinberg: I try to put them in play a soon as I can by emailing someone about the idea. I put them into my social knowledge network, which is part of my imperfect storage system.
To put it into my social network I need to find an immediate (first prototype) application – or at least some idea of how the idea might make a difference.
This serves 3 purposes: it forces me to think about the idea in a practical way, it starts a conversation (see above) to get feedback, it ensures that I don't forget the idea right away.
I have a paper notebook that I use less and less. I also store articles, work products, etc. in folders on my computer with a full-text search engine (x1) so that I can find things. But I don't have a systematic approach to reviewing and sorting ideas.
I use a dialectical approach to find more ideas. I look for the antithesis with the ideas as the thesis. Or I look for a thesis and antithesis with the idea as the synthesis. When I started thinking and finding ideas about corporate governance, shareholder value theory (thesis) led me to stakeholder theory (antithesis). No synthesis yet. 😎 Another one is the Resource Based View vs a Knowledge Based view. That led me to knowledge in social networks, Structural Holes (thank you, Andy), and Bruce Kogut's work.
Boynton: Can you think of a few big ideas you've found hunting and what they led to? How'd you find those big ideas? How'd you take them and turn them into something important to you?
Weinberg: DeepDive™ led to combining executive education and design practices with management consulting practices to an idea that Michael Raynor and I believe could disrupt management consulting. DeepDive™ and Disruptive Innovation are ideas from people I work with.
I combined the findings from the PIMS data with the concept of a multi-layer engineering architecture (eg, the internet, the switched telephone system) to create a "Marketing Communications Architecture" to align the marketing activity and spend for a computer industry client.
DeepDive™ and Idea Hunter, the television shows: collaborated with you to combine your ideas with Tracy's Style Safari approach to interesting (not just entertaining) reality TV.
Artificial Intelligence solution to increase the quality of automated chemical analysis. I used ideas about mechanical translation to create a language that described the reasoning and actions of expert machine operators. Then added a learning approach. The result outperformed the best operators.
Strategic Planning Approach for a European National Bank by applying Michael Raynor's Strategic Flexibility ideas and to the public policy uncertainties of economic efficiency vs economic equity.
ANDY's comments…
Two things strike me about Howard's Hunt. The first is his quote: "Every day I have conversations: Clayton Christensen is fond of reminding us over-educated types that "you can learn from everyone". I try to.". A great quote and Clay Christensen is one smart idea hunter we can all learn from. I want to focus on the word "conversation" — they are key for idea transmission. And if you want to influence someone with your ideas, start a great conversation. In our book, The Idea Hunter, Bill Fischer and I have a chapter on "conversations" and we feature Howard in it describing a case study where he was the maestro of a high powered five minute conversation with a client. So, take conversation away if nothing else. They are vital to the learning process.
I could go on and on about important aspects of Howard's hunting behavior–but look at his sources–what he reads in the paper press, where he hunts online, where he visits in NYC and beyond. No wonder he's a great idea hunter. He has a particularly large, rich, and varied world of ideas from which he draws from. Howards never acts like the smartest guy in the room, but he almost always is. Learn from his hunt. I know I will.

I have installed XAMPP successfully, and have apache running. I managed to get as far as opening the WordPress program. I forgot to record the path to the website which is installed locally and on my desktop.
I follow the path to htdocs-website1-wp-admin. I am presented with a list of WP files, but none of them get me to my website. I can also go to ht-docs and then to xampp to wordpress-admin with the same results.
I know the website is running because i was able to install a new theme when i went through the steps to set up a localhost initially.

Alien's assistant in election race
Oh dear. The poor old Conservative Party. Led by a coterie of no ones, bedevilled by its aged relatives and in danger of becoming the UK's third party, it's certainly in need of some decent marketing (or policies – take your pick).
But help is at hand, it seems. One Nikki Page, assistant to "Alien" John Redwood, is competing alongside Stephen Norris to become the party's candidate for London mayor. Page is a former model and spent 21 years as a senior marketer at companies including the Mayfair Intercontinental Hotel. The Diary wishes her well against the avuncular (and presumably former) adulterer who, according to one Page supporter on a Conservative online forum, alienated large numbers of "decent people" in 2000, when he advocated "the scrapping of laws against gay sex in public toilets".
Seems you've got your work cut out, Ms Page…

Prediction Model Bias
Brad Plumer provides a very practical reason why he believes environmental cost predictions tend to be over-estimates:
[M]arkets always tend to be smarter than these forecasters, and adjust in ways that no one expected.
Let's assume arguendo that this is correct (and I think it is, as a general statement about markets vs. planners – I'm about as Hayekian as they come). This leads to two questions, one far more important than the other.
1. The narrow point is that, per prior discussion on this, if one could actually observe a reasonably consistent over-estimate in a provably-relevant reference class of prior predictions, this would lead a competent forecaster to make a transparent "topside" adjustment to get a best-available forecast.
2. The more important point is that this same logic ought to apply to the damage estimates that similar bodies forecast for the costs of climate change. That is, markets should be smarter than forecasters think when it comes to adapting to climate change as well (e.g., crop selection, transitions to other economic sectors, clever infrastructure developments and so on). To only focus on this kind of error on one side of the cost / benefit calculation is loading the dice.

Officials with the Port Hope Area Initiative (PHAI) are calling it "a major milestone that's decades in the making."
The first truckloads of low-level radioactive waste are on the road taking contaminants from the centre pier to the long-term storage facility on Baulch Road, in the town's north-west.
"We've been waiting since the 1970s for this," said Scott Parnell, PHAI general manager.

It has been a long wait that has included some delays along the way for the $1.28-billion project. The federal government committed the cash to cleaning up Port Hope and Port Granby in 2012.
"We have upwards of 30 regulatory agencies we work with. They all have a different set of requirements. We've spent years doing the planning work to meet those requirements," Parnell said. "A lot has to happen to make that first truckload move across the scales."
The 1.2 million cubic metres of historic waste is at various sites across the community.
The waste is from the former Eldorado Nuclear Ltd. facility. It refined radium used for treating cancer and uranium that helped the Manhattan Project develop the first atomic bombs.
Right now, approximately 80 truckloads of waste are being hauled down specific routes through town to the facility daily. At its peak, likely next year, there will be upwards of 200 truckloads per day.

"The Pine Street temporary storage site is next. We will work with some of the residential properties this summer. We will also work along the waterfront this summer," Parnell said.
There are a number of safety measures in place to prevent further contamination along the routes.
"Big priority, especially with the dry summer, is the dust control. We have multiple dust control water application trucks, dust suppressant being applied," said Chris Bobzener, project lead. "We have a robust safety program here. Very stringent requirements on the contractors and clearances."
