Subang Jaya, 24 November 2019 – Team Proton R3 (R3) capped a successful 2019 season yesterday by winning the Sepang 1000km (S1K) race for a third consecutive time. The 2019 Proton Iriz driven by Mitchell Cheah and Fariqe Hairuman dominated proceedings in a tough race that featured a safety car period and inclement weather leading to proceedings ending after nine hours instead of the scheduled 181 laps. There was double joy for R3 as the 2019 Proton Saga driven by Syafiq Ali and Admi Shahrul came home in second place.
PROTON is the most successful manufacturer in S1K
With a third consecutive and fifth overall S1K victory, PROTON has stretched its lead as the most successful manufacturer in the history of the event. The record is a testament to the reliability, handling and performance of Proton cars as well as the skill, professionalism and teamwork of R3 who are arguably the leading racing team in Malaysia.
"Being successful in motor racing requires a combination of factors. A manufacturer for instance would firstly need the correct models in its range that would be suitable for the job. Even if a suitable model is available, it is difficult to achieve success as the car needs to be developed while the skills of the racing team, from the technicians to the drivers, needs to be finely honed. This requires an investment in time and money and PROTON's success in motorsports is proof our investment in R3, our in-house racing division, is a wise one," said Dr. Li Chunrong, Chief Executive Officer of PROTON.
Lady drivers fight for seventh place finish
There were three Team Proton R3 entrants for S1K this year and the third car comprised of an all-ladies driving team. Nurul Husna and Faye Kusairi were selected from the MSF-R3 Lady Drivers Search that gave aspiring lady racers a chance to compete in the S1K race. The lead driver for the team was Leona Chin, Malaysia's fastest lady racer.
A technical issue during qualifying meant the team's 2019 Proton Saga started the race from 26th on the grid. Despite the early setback, the ladies showed amazing skill and fighting spirit as they carved their way up to seventh overall and first among all lady drivers by the end of the race.
"Our lady drivers performed very well and we are proud of their achievement. By finishing seventh, they have proven their capability to compete in the male dominated arena of motorsports and PROTON are proud to have given Malaysian women an opportunity to showcase their talents," said Dr. Li Chunrong.
Racing success paves the way to improved sales performance
The marketing phrase "win on Sunday, sell on Monday" refers to an age old ethos for car manufacturers who compete in motorsports. By being successful on the track, their products gain an image boost thus helping to improve their performance in the showroom.
"By winning the S1K for the fifth time in 11 editions, PROTON has proven its mastery of the event. A 1,000kn race requires speed as well as reliability and our models have both. What we learn in the heat of competition we then engineer in to our products to create better cars. The success of both the 2019 Iriz and 2019 Saga in motorsports helped boost the image of each model and as a result, Iriz sales have increased three-fold while the Saga has achieved over 35,000 bookings since its launch," added Dr. Li Chunrong.

The University of Iowa Health Care (UIHC) recently became the first U.S. health system to implement IDx-DR in the diabetes care setting. IDx-DR is a a U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved artificial intelligence (AI) device that automatically detects more than mild diabetic retinopathy in adults diagnosed with diabetes who have not been previously diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy.
In April, IDx-DR—which is developed by IDx—became the first medical device to be approved by the FDA for screening decisions without requiring a specialist to interpret the results. Diabatic retinopathy occurs when blood sugar levels cause damage to blood vessels in the retina, which can lead to a variety of issues, including swelling, leaking, and even loss of vision. Now that the software is used by UIHC, clinical professionals there who typically are not involved in eye care can still complete peoples' annual diabetic retinopathy screenings.
University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics operates an academic medical center and a regional referral center in Iowa. Its services include allergy and immunology, dentistry, dermatology, emergency, endocrinology, family medicine, and numerous other services.
This was reported by Becker's Health IT & CIO Report on June 26, 2018.

Harry, Meghan reveal 'Master Archie'
Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, introduced her "dream" baby to the world on Wednesday in a three-minute photocall at Windsor Castle.
As a proud father, Prince Harry spoke about having "our own little bundle of joy".
It was announced later in the day after Baby Sussex had been introduced to the Queen that he will be known simply as "Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor".
Mountbatten was the last Viceroy of India.
As the first born son of a duke, Archie could have become Earl of Dumbarton — one of Harry's subsidiary titles — or have been Lord Archie Mountbatten-Windsor.
Short for Archibald, Archie is now given as a name in its own right.The decision fits in with Harry and Meghan's desire to give their son as normal a life as possible despite his royal heritage.
No one will begrudge Harry his moment of happiness because he was only 12 — and his elder brother William 15 — when they lost their doting mother Princess Diana in a car crash in a Paris tunnel in 1997.
It was Harry, dressed formally in a grey suit, who gently cradled the sleeping baby, while Meghan, in a plain cream dress, adjusted its blankets."It's magic, it's pretty amazing," said Meghan. "I have the two best guys in the world so I'm really happy. He has the sweetest temperament, he's really calm."
As they both laughed, Harry said: "I don't know who he gets that from." Meghan added: "He's just been the dream so it's been a special couple of days." Baby Sussex was born on Monday at 5.26am.
He will get used to the sound of camera motor drives soon enough, but for now, two and a half days after his birth in the Portland Hospital in London, he slept peacefully swaddled in a blanket in Harry's arms. At the request of the media pool, Meghan and Harry adjusted the baby's cap and turned his face so that royal fans could have their first peek at the boy who will be notionally seventh in line to the throne.
Amid surroundings steeped in royal history, the latest royal baby made his debut behind closed doors, with a small press pool of only one reporter, one photographer, three cameramen (including one from America's CBS network at Meghan's insistence), as well as the couple's own private photographer and a household press officer photographer.
Before being taken to be introduced to the Queen in her private apartments as her eighth great grandchild, Meghan and Harry answered a few questions.
The photocall took place in St George's Hall in Windsor Castle, not far from the chapel where the 37-year-old former American actress and the Queen's grandson, now 34, were married in May last year.
The ornate ceiling is studded with the coats of arms of Knights of the Garter stretching back to 1348 and the walls feature figures of knights in armour.
Asked who the baby takes after, Meghan said: "We're still trying to figure that out." Harry said: "Everyone says that babies change so much over two weeks we're basically monitoring how the changing process happens over this next month really."
Asked how he found parenting, Harry added: "It's great. Parenting is amazing. It's only been two and a half days, three days, but we're just so thrilled to have our own little bundle of joy and be able to spend some precious times with him as he slowly, slowly starts to grow up."
Asked about going to see the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, Meghan said: "We just bumped into the duke as we were walking by which was so nice. So it'll be a nice moment to introduce the baby to more family and my Mom's with us as well."
People will notice she used the American "Mom" rather than the British "Mum".
A quip from Harry: "Another great grandchild."
Asked to show more of their son's face to the cameras, Meghan laughed as the bearded Harry joked: "He's already got a little bit of facial hair as well, wonderful."
Meghan added: "Thank you everybody for all the well wishes and kindness, it just means so much."
Meanwhile, Meghan's friend, the 58-year-old Hollywood actor, George Clooney, has asked the press in the UK to be "kinder" towards her.
Speaking at the Catch-22 premiere about media scrutiny of Meghan and Harry, he said: "I think it'll (becoming parents) intensify it,
of course. But it's never about the media following you around, because that, in part, if you're a royal, that's part of what you have to do.
"It's the other versions of it – going to interview people's parents, that kind of stuff."
"It starts to step into a really dark place," said Clooney, who has denied he will be a godfather to the baby. "It's just, sort of, the press turned on them. I think people should be a little kinder. She's a young woman who just had a baby."
He also joked about sharing a birthday with Baby Sussex: "I was a little irritated because that kid really is stealing my thunder!"
The Clooneys have holidayed with Harry and Meghan in Italy and were at their wedding. Amal Clooney also attended Meghan's luxury baby shower in New York.

Fruit fly find spurs eradication effort
The crop-destroying Oriental fruit fly has been found in Pasadena and Lakewood, prompting an eradication program in those and some surrounding areas, county agricultural officials said Tuesday.
In Lakewood, where eight of the pests were discovered, officials also are establishing a quarantine, restricting the transport of fruits and vegetables through or out of the community.
To eradicate the pests, state agricultural workers are squirting small spots of bait onto utility poles and parkway tree trunks in the affected areas to attract and kill male fruit flies. Approximately 600 applications are made per square mile, and the process will be repeated every two weeks over the next few months. No aerial treatments are planned.
Residents with concerns about the process may call the California Department of Food and Agriculture Pest Hotline, (800) 491-1899.
Kurt Floren, county agricultural commissioner, said the Oriental fruit fly is one of the world's most destructive pests, and if allowed to establish itself here, it would quickly threaten the state's $32-billion agricultural industry. He urged residents and visitors to refrain from bringing prohibited vegetables, fruits or other plants into California because they could be harboring dangerous pests or diseases.

Today I want to introduce a project I have been working on together (mostly in the background) with some colleagues of mine… Now with beta status reached, it's time to more publicly talk about it: enter Plasma Bigscreen.
Smart TVs are becoming more and more complete computers, but unfortunately there the experience tends to be a tight walled garden between proprietary platform, services and privacy-infringing features. Features which are very cool, like voice control, but in order to not pose a threat to the user privacy should be on a free software stack and depending less on proprietary cloud platforms where possible.
Plasma BigScreen is a platform intended to use on smart TVs (trough a powerful enough small computing platform, such as the Raspberry Pi4, or any tiny computer if you need more power) with big remote-friendly UI controls, and Voice activation. What technology did we use for it? Plasma (of course!) and Mycroft.
Plasma Bigscreen is an user interface for TVs providing a 10 foot UI for a smart TV experience (on TVs or any screen with an HDMI connection). It is a Plasma Shell, just like our beloved Plasma Desktop and Plasma Mobile.
It uses the familiar look and feel of Plasma but optimizes all the user interaction to be perfectly readable from the distance and controllable with ha simple basic remote control… from your couch.
Besides interaction with a remote control, it also supports a modern way of iteracting that is revolutionizing the UX on all kind of devices: voice interaction. Optionally, it can integrate seamlessy with Mycroft: an opensource project aimed to offer a completely free voice assistant.
Mycroft offers what are the so-called "skills". Each skill, takes care of a particular voice interaction. there is an huge variety available, from the weather, do date/time and reminders, to online services clients such as soundcloud and Youtube, with comprehensive QML bindings to show a rich User Interface in a Plasma Environment.
We prepared a beta image for the Raspberry Pi4 for anyone to try, in which we pre-configured Plasma Bigscreen with Mycroft integration ready to go.
If you have a Raspberry Pi4, you can try this image immediately: you can find it here: just flash the file on a MicroSD and is ready to go on any Pi4.
Note that on that image, we point the device to the official Mycroft company's "Mycroft Home" service, which internally uses the Google STT (Speech to text) which does use google but in a more anonymized fashion as this is not tied to your Google account (nor requires having one). Tough not ideal, it's possible to configure the Mycroft core to use different services, even those you can self-host like Mozilla Deepspeech.
In here to emphasize voice controls, we prepared some skills (some preinstalled, some can come from the kde store) to fully show voice controls. In particular a Youtube client skill which is perfectly usable both from a remote control and voice only.
As remote control, you can use the remote of your TV directly if it supports the CEC standard, or any of those remotes with an usb dongle which are "seen" as a keyboard with just few standard keys (some have also an integrated microphone, so giving voice commands is very easy).
In the next days, there will be more posts explaining the architecture and the technical choices we made, in the mean time, have a try and if you want to get in contact with us about the project, you can find directions here.

June 3, 2019 by FLW Communications
EDGEWOOD, Md. – The Adrian College duo of Ryan Sharnas of Davison, Michigan, and Brandon Herzberg of Clarklake, Michigan, won the YETI FLW College Fishing event on the Chesapeake Bay presented by Bass Pro Shops Friday with a five-bass limit weighing 21 pounds, 11 ounces. The victory earned the Bulldogs' bass club $2,000 and a slot in the 2020 FLW College Fishing National Championship.
"To win feels pretty amazing," said Herzberg, a recent graduate of Adrian College with a degree in business management. "Ryan and I have fished for four years and this was basically the last tournament of our career. We've put in a lot of hard work over the past four years and to walk away with a win feels great."
"We definitely weren't expecting to win," said Sharnas, also a recent graduate with a degree in criminal justice. "We had found some areas on the Susquehanna Flats during practice, but we had no idea they were holding as many fish as they were."
The duo said they caught around 40 keepers throughout the day, keying on certain areas of grass that were a bit taller than the eelgrass and milfoil.
"Certain types of grass seemed to hold more fish than others," Sharnas said. "When everything came together and lined up – the right depth, the right grass and the tide change – it was game on. The most important thing was that you had to make contact with the weeds and rip it through – almost every cast my squarebill would come back with grass on it."
A Rapala BX Brat squarebill crankbait (Rock Solid) and a Terminator Swimjig (black and blue) with a Bass Pro Shops Sassy Sally swimbait (black and blue with silver flake) trailer were the key baits for the Bulldog club.
"I think the key was the time we spent covering water on that Flat," Herzberg said. "We put in a lot of time graphing and fishing and once we found the sweet spot we were able to roll up at the right time with the right tide and put everything together."
The top 10 teams that advanced to the 2020 College Fishing National Championship are:
1st: Adrian College – Ryan Sharnas, Davison, Mich., and Brandon Herzberg, Clarklake, Mich., five bass, 21-11, $2,650
2nd: Youngstown State University – Jeffrey Jardine, Niles, Ohio, and Mike Soots, McDonald, Ohio, five bass, 19-3, $1,200
3rd: Slippery Rock University – Nathan Quince, Imperial, Pa., and Cody Neal, Evans City, Pa., five bass, 19-0, $700
4th: Adrian College – Jack Hippe III, Davison, Mich., and Griffin Fernandes, McCordsville, Ind., five bass, 18-14, $500
5th: Adrian College – Blake Johnson, Mooresville, Ind., and Myles Jackman, White Lake, Mich., five bass, 18-1, $500
6th: Penn State University – Jonathan Dietz, Corry, Pa., and Ryan Fox, Thornhurst, Pa., five bass, 17-14
7th: Ramapo College – Alex Johnson, Milltown, N.J., and Zachary Potter, Haddon Township, N.J., five bass, 16-7
8th: Adrian College – Alex Henderson, Mooresville, Ind., and Chase Serafin, White Lake, Mich., five bass, 16-2
9th: Adrian College – Jarrod Layton, Maybee, Mich., and Matthew Davis, Coloma, Mich., five bass, 16-1
10th: Western Michigan University – Mason Vernia, Schoolcraft, Mich., and Ryan Bradway, Okemos, Mich., five bass, 15-8
Complete results for the entire field can be found at FLWFishing.com.
The YETI FLW College Fishing event on the Chesapeake Bay presented by Bass Pro Shops was hosted by the Visit Harford. It was the second of three regular-season qualifying tournaments for Northern Conference anglers.

A new week, another chance to get back into my blogging routine. I feel like I have been slacking majorly recently, simply not being able to fit the time in for photo taking, writing or even cramming ideas together in my head. My mind has been on overload with just having to be at work, so all time spent in between just seems to have turned into a bit of a blur. Nevertheless, I am going to get back to it, hopefully being able to get into the swing of things again.
Today I want to focus on a beauty related topic, discussing my tips on how to protect your hair from heat and the everyday things that may effect it. I have never been one to use much heat on my hair, purely because I am lazy and can never be bothered to really dry it. Also, my hair naturally is quite straight and easy to manage, which I am very grateful about, so I have never been someone who needs to use straighteners everyday. As I have grown up, I have started to incorporate more things into my hair routine, occasionally getting out the curling wand as well as drying it much more. When I first started doing this I didn't really think much about the effect it had, so just let it go over my head for a little while. About a year ago, after seeing how other bloggers and Youtubers take care of their hair, I realised that I should probably be doing some things differently in order to protect it. The initial message I got from everything I had seen was that I didn't want to look back and think 'OMG I wish i'd looked after it more!' Hence, now having a strict routine whenever I use heat to style my hair. I am going to share my hair routine with you, for everyday, night outs and other occasions where I use heat. I am also going to share with you some products that I use to keep my hair healthy and give it that blonde glow.
Hair Masks
Once a week, I like to use a hair mask to give my hair a new leap of life. I don't use anything fancy – just some coconut oil, mixed with a little olive oil. I mix 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a bowl, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Using a fork you can mix this all together so that it becomes more runny in texture. Using the palms of my hands, I then take half the mixture and rub into my hands so that it warms up a little. I apply this to the ends of my hair on one side of my head. I then repeat on the other side, tie my hair up in a bun and leave overnight. Even better, I sometimes do this at the gym after my workout, then go in the sauna…my hair always feels incredible.
A few tips I would have for this are that you really don't need to buy any fancy hair masks, as usually natural products always work the best. I would also say to avoid using the mask in the roots of your hair as they can become very oily, and try to leave in your hair for as long as possible. Finally, in the morning when you wash your hair, I would shampoo it twice and give it a really good condition. You will be amazed at how soft your hair feels.
Moroccan Oil
A product I inherited a love for from my grandmother, as she used to use it on the ends of my hair before drying it when I was quite small. The thing I love most about this product has to be the absolutely gorgeous smell. It smells good enough to eat, and like it is so natural and good for you. I used to use this on the ends of my hair just before drying it, as it would make brushing so much easier and I loved how soft my hair was as a result. I still do this today, however for extra shine I always put a little through the ends of my hair once it is dry. You really don't need very much at all, just a little drop in the palm of your hands, rubbed to become warm and gently brushed through your hair. It really is a beautiful, simple product, that I feel will always be something that I go back to. Also, Rosie Huntington-Whitely is the face of it…so can there even be any reason not to love it?!
Tangle Teezer
Ever since I first had my hair highlighted about two years ago, I have noticed how knotted it gets when it has been washed. To begin with it was a nightmare, with me tugging and tugging, eventually giving up and ending up with frizzy and knotted hair all day. It was so dreadful, and I was getting seriously worried about the damage that I must have been causing. The constant pulling on my hair made it feel weak and thinner, so I decided to try out a tangle teezer. After two years of using one I will never understand how I lived without one before. It is an absolute miracle product, that makes brushing my wet hair ten time easier and stops the damage that was being caused before. I will recommend a tangle teezer for years, no matter what kind of hair you have. Everyone has knotted hair once it has been washed, so a tangle teezer is a need, not a want.
I have come up with a drying routine now that I feel has helped my hair to stay healthy, as well as getting it done reasonably quickly. I would always start by having a good quality hair dryer, which allows you to have a lower and higher setting. I don't use any applications that ever come with them, which may be stupid, but if I'm being completely honest I don't have a clue how to use them. I start by brushing my hair out and applying relevant products, as mentioned above. I then dry my hair as much as possible with a towel, and let it air dry for as long as possible. I start by drying the roots of my hair, using the lower setting, just drying the top of my head and moving the hair with my fingers. I then dry the roots at the bottom of my head, by turning my head upside down and repeating the action. I then focus on the ends, using my tangle teezer. I brush all the hair out, then brush sections with the brush facing towards my face. As the brush goes down I dry the area on the brush and repeat until all the ends of my hair are dry. I then turn the hairdryer off, put my head back up and brush all over to remove any knots. Using the more powerful setting, I then dry all of my hair quite briskly, but I think it is okay as it really should only need a minute or two. Brush out again, and apply a little Moroccan oil through the ends.
Styling Equipment
I have one curling wand and a pair of straighteners. I rarely use the straighteners unless my hair is exceptionally frizzy, so don't worry too much about these being particularly great and healthy for my hair etc… The thing I use a lot more is my curling wand. If I ever want to style my hair or just do something different I will add some waves using the wand. This wand was sold to me by one of those people who approach you in shopping malls trying to sell things. My grandma and I were victims, and landed up buying one after the stylist had curled all my hair to the point that I looked like a poodle. The brand was called Amika, and they claim to be a brand who work to provide products that are healthier for your hair. The products are half as hot as ordinary curling wands, and the curls are meant to last all day. I have to say, most of the time I think these things are all a load of rubbish, but these genuinely work. The curls created are always amazing, it is easy to use and is defiantly less hot compared to any others that I have ever used. I used the wand in my latest video, so I will tag it below so you can take a look.

Not bad these lot, are they. Over the last year or so Evil Nine have pretty much found, and defined 'their sound'. For those that are shamefully unaware, that is roughly hip-hop, punk, deep house, breaks all rolled into one. Now you know, (if you didn't all ready). Their steady stream of consistently solid releases and remixes has seen their profile rise to where they are now. This is another taster from their forthcoming album 'You Can Be Special Too', that will not disappoint fans. The original is like a deep-house hip-hop opus with a sufficiently solid breaks foundation that builds on the Evil Nine style of 'less-is-more-and-a-couple-of-guitars'! The Bassbin Twins take on remix duties and, to be honest, it sounds like they've just taken out the vocal and added a few choice, slightly drum and bass inspired, samples. Tell you what though, really loud, a bit later on and this REALLY works and is darned powerful, in a classy, understated kind of way.

Black Forest DL™ delivers the promise of blockchain by providing unprecedented security, privacy, performance, scale and consistency.
Black Forest DL™ supports millions of individual ledgers to fulfill challenging use cases. For instance, every individual could have their own ledger for their identity information or their medical records. For pharma track and trace, every pill bottle could have its own ledger. In financial markets, every participant could have a ledger for their account and shared ledgers for their interactions with other participants.
Black Forest DL™ utilizes a novel approach that supports thousands of partitions, each executing their own parallel consensus sessions. Data partitions can be created, removed, or replicated amongst multiple servers seamlessly and on the fly.
Nodes can be distributed over any number of servers. Data operations and queries are performed in parallel. This includes spatial, temporal, and semantic search operations. Black Forest DL™'s novel data partitioning method supports incredibly fast parallel queries and transactions.
The first entry in each ledger specifies the participants (public keys) for the ledger and the signature rules for the ledger. The participants must sign a given transaction with their private keys for it to be accepted by the consensus algorithm. Signature entries are integral parts of a ledger's transaction chain.
All transactions are in the form of N-tuples containing a subject, predicate, and object. The fields are treated as "blobs". Black Forest DL™ has zero knowledge of their contents.
Black Forest DL™ transactions are atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable. Data modifications can be perfomed on multiple ledgers as part of a transaction.
Black Forest DL™ provides a powerful query mechanism for accessing ledger transactions. A simple "GetLastTransaction" method is provided as well as a powerful query mechanism for iterating through long transaction chains N transactions at a time.
Black Forest DL™ enforces access control using digitally signed user assertions and security labels. Even though Black Forest DL™ has zero knowledge of the ledgers and transactions, only valid parties can access the encrypted transactions.
Transactions stored with Black Forest DL™ have application assigned security labels, which add an additional layer of protection and control. Applications can manage their encryption keys based on the security level, compartment and group they assign to their transactions.
Gartner projects that the business value-add of blockchain will grow to slightly more than $176 billion by 2025, and then it will exceed $3.1 trillion by 2030.
Public blockchains using Proof of Work (PoW) are slow and transparent on purpose. Private peer to peer blockchain architectures are incredibly difficult to scale and suffer from eventual consistency.
Zero Knowledge means just that. Black Forest DL™ has no knowledge of the encrypted data within your transactions, even while performing consensus. Black Forest DL™ servers never have the keys to decrypt any transactions.
Black Forest DL™ provides fine-grain access control to individual ledgers so that only the participants of a given ledger can get get access to the encrypted contents. Application layer encryption allows only participants with the correct keys for the ledger to create and access encrypted transactions..
Black Forest DL™ provides unprecedented performance through massively parallel consensus. Millions of ledgers can execute simultaneous transactions with latency equal to single digit milliseconds plus any network latency required for packets to travel between replicas.
Black Forest DL™ can scale to thousands of partitions. Each partition has independent sets of replicas executing thousands of transactions per second. With enough partitions, Black Forest DL™ can theorectically scale up to 40 million transactions per second.
Transactions are strongly encrypted before they ever reach Black Forest DL™.
Transactions remain encrypted and can only be decrypted by participants with the encryption keys.
Individual transactions are chained together using cryptography. Multiple replicas must agree to add a transaction to the chain using our massively parallel byzantine fault tolerant consensus algorithm.
Black Forest DL™ never has the encryption keys for any ledger or transaction. Therefore, a successful attack on a majority of Black Forest DL™ replicas can't create valid transaction history. Zero knowledge allows Black Forest DL™ to provide trustless and immutable transactions without thousands of decentralized servers. Like the Bitcoin blockchain, Black Forest DL™ relies solely on cryptography for trust.
"A new world of connectivity is emerging. People — and the things around us — are increasingly connected to networks and sharing information, collaborating more across borders and gaining incredibly rich insights from big data. The World Economic Forum calls this the 'hyperconnected world,' and it will have a huge impact on the future."
Black Forest DL™ can help your business protect and secure a hyperconnected future.
The current state of health care records is disjointed due to a lack of common architectures and standards. Claims processing is cumbersome and subject to fraud, and key medical insights are lost with poor record keeping and privacy concerns. Today's blockchains and distributed ledgers can't support the necessary throughput, volume of data, or read latency required. With BFDL, we can finally create an authoritative medical record for every person in the world stored and secured in a separate ledger.
Black Forest DL™ can increase the value of decentralized cryptocurrency blockchains by working in conjunction with these networks to solve their significant limitations for uses cases such as payments, sidechains and regulated exchanges.
The billions of smart devices being connected to the Internet could fundamentally change the way we live and work. However, there are incredible challenges around security and scale. Distributed ledger promises to provide the trust services that ensure the integrity of information, both being received from IoT devices and the information being used to control IoT devices. BFDL is uniquely well suited to support a network of devices and sensors because our ledgers are architected to link transaction chains instead of blocks, scale horizontally via partitioning, support up to 4,000 partitions, and support 10,000 transactions per second per partition. Black Forest DL™ provides the security, privacy, performance and scale needed to realize the promise of distributed ledger for IoT.
Black Forest DL™ has the security, privacy, performance and scale to support self-sovereign identity and a distributed trust model. With Black Forest DL™, every individual can control their own ledger and the sharing of the information it contains. "Trustless" interactions between individuals and digital businesses can be managed using two-party ledgers without trusted intermediaries. Black Forest DB can provide the efficient and secure indexing and search of identity information.
The Drug Quality and Security Act requires the implementation of technology and systems to discourage counterfeiting. Serialization requires a system to track and trace prescription drugs through their supply chain. Unlike blockchain and other distributed ledger solutions, Black Forest DL™ supports creating an independent ledger for every pill bottle and provides the performance and scale to handle the required volume of transactions. In addition, Black Forest DL™ supports low latency reads required to quickly access the information about a given pill bottle. With Black Forest DL™, you can Record individual transactions not blocks, providing fine-grain compartmentalization for confidential access by regulators and auditors.
Black Forest DL™'s unique cryptographic compartmentalization will enhance transparency and facilitate confidential sharing of critical business information among supply chain partners, and help reduce fraud and errors and reduce waste and cost. With access to millions of ledgers, businesses can manage the individual paper trail of tens of millions of shipping containers across the world and digitize the supply chain process from end-to-end.

|High expectations for Deon Custom debut album
Young Dutch producer surprised by all positive attention
Amsterdam 15 Mei 2013 – A few weeks ago barely anyone knew the name Deon Custom. Slowly his name is creating a buzz and expectations are growing for his album "Ametrine". Some of his tracks start to appear in mixes and playlists of key players.
Most notable are the repeated plays Plastician is giving Deon Custom on his Rinse FM show, every week he plays at least one of the tracks from the album. Dutch DJ's like Vincent Paolo and FS Green play tracks in their sets, and the latter also supported a track on the 22tracks website. Other support comes from artists like Boeboe, 813 and Mike Mago.
Deon: "I'm not really believing it, but I apreciate all the love I'm getting so far so much and I think things can only go uphill from here."
Unravelling the mystery
Deon Custom presents his album on June 7th in the OT301 in Amsterdam playing alongside Jameszoo & Jarreau Vandal.

Pakistan wins Twenty20 World Cup
Pakistan crushed Sri Lanka by 8 wickets to win the World Twenty20 final at a sell-out Lord's on Sunday. This is their first major triumph in winning a title after a hiatus of 17 years.
Pakistan last won an official multi-nation tournament in 1992 when Imran Khan's team lifted the One Day World Cup by beating England in the final at the Melbourne cricket ground in Australia.
In the T20 final at Lords, Seamer Abdur Razzaq claimed three wickets as Pakistan bowled and fielded aggressively to restrict Sri Lanka to 138-6.
Shahid Afridi hit an unbeaten 54 off 40 balls and former captain Shoaib Malik made 24 not out during a match-winning partnership of 76 for the undefeated third wicket. Pakistan made the winning run with 8 balls to spare.
Pakistan, runners-up to India in the final of the inaugural World Twenty20 in South Africa two years ago, ended Sri Lanka's unbeaten run in the tournament with style.

Costa Rica is known for its great diversity and wide range of activities. Our country seduces couples from all over the world and diversity is welcome in all aspects of our lifestyle.
- LGBT vacation in Costa Rica: a Gay or Lesbian vacation in Costa Rica or any other member of the LGBTI community is just like any other vacation in Costa Rica- amazing! The times when only gay exclusive hotels at Manuel Antonio where the place to go for gay couples, have long past: we have opened our doors to everybody and our mission is that everybody feels wonderful.
- No more unnecessary questions asked: there is no more need to clarify that a same-sex couple will need one bed instead of two at any hotel- it is actually assumed that a couple is coming and so when two friends come to vacation in Costa Rica and need separate beds, they are now the travelers who need to clarify their bed distribution at every hotel.
- Commitment ceremony: although same-sex marriage is still to be approved in Costa Rica, we are thrilled when our gay or lesbian couples request commitment ceremonies to tie their bond. Our favorite places for a commitment ceremony, chaman or spiritual leader included if wanted: Tesoro Escondido Waterfall, the Thermal Springs at Tabacon (adults only area), Punta Islita high peak at sunset.
Thinking about that perfect gay or lesbian vacation in Costa Rica? Here´s a look at one amazing romantic package that might entice you. CLICK HERE

Lionel Messi's boots - a history of the Barcelona & Argentina star's best footwear
What boots does Lionel Messi wear? Well, it turns out that the Barcelona star wears a lot of different boots.
The Argentina captain is widely considered to be one of the greatest footballers of all time and he has won four Champions League titles during his career, as well as eight La Ligas.
One of Adidas' star athletes, he is kitted out by the sportswear giants, who have invested heavily into crafting boots worthy of his abilities.
So what sort of footwear does a five-time Ballon d'Or winner use on the pitch? Goal takes a look at Messi's current boots, as well as some of the best he's used in the past.
Barca breakthrough in Nike boots
Given that he is now the top asset in Adidas' glittering roster of footballers it may be hard to believe that Messi originally favoured Nike footwear.
He wore Nike's Tiempo boots as he starred in Argentina's successful 2005 Under-20 World Cup campaign and also wore the famous Mercurial Vapor and T-90 at different stages.
At the time, Messi was playing alongside Ronaldinho, who was - and still is - one of Nike's biggest stars, and the precocious Argentine was tipped as the Brazilian's heir in Catalunya.
A certain Cristiano Ronaldo was also making waves at Manchester United while donning the 'swoosh' during that period.
However, Nike were denied a marketing dream team as Adidas ultimately lured Messi away from the embrace of their rivals and into the arms of the brand with the three stripes by offering him a more lucrative sponsorship deal.
The rest, as they say, is history.
Adidas F50 TUNiT
After firmly nailing his colours to the Adidas mast, Messi was soon seen wearing the brand's footwear on pitches in Spain, Europe and across the globe.
Around that time, the Predator series of boots had been popularised by the likes of Zinedine Zidane and David Beckham, but Adidas were beginning to explore new lines of design.
Messi's speed, guile and all-round trickery fitted perfectly with the brand's new F50 design, which was built for players with that particular style of play.
From 2006 on, he generally wore the F50 TUNiT boot as he cemented his reputation as one of the best players in the world.
Adidas F50i
The year 2009 was an incredibly successful time for Messi as he won a treble with Barcelona and he did so while wearing the blue F50i boots he helped Adidas launch.
The Argentine scored Barca's second goal in the final of the Champions League against Manchester United and he famously celebrated by taking off his boot and kissing it.
The year was topped off as he picked up his first ever Ballon d'Or, leading Adidas to explore new gold-tinted boot designs for their prize asset.
Adidas F50 Adizero
As Messi's star continued to rise, Adidas eventually started to craft boots specifically for the Barca talisman, with the new designs featuring his own personal branding.
Messi clearly felt that the F50 style suited him as he stuck with them in their various incarnations for the guts of a decade.
Some of the more memorable versions include the 2012 white and gold F50 Adizero boots, which cleverly acknowledged the Argentine's three Ballons d'Or wins (2009, 2010 and 2011) and featured the Messi logo on the heel.
By this time, the F50 Adizero design had migrated the stripes to the back end of the boot instead of the front and, later that year, Messi could be seen wearing a striking silver and orange version of the boots.
In the lead up to the 2014 World Cup Adidas opted to make some changes to their signature F50 boots and, of course, Messi was the main man to promote them.
The main design for the new F50s at the tournament was white with black and orange markings, similar in style to the Adidas Brazuca ball that was in use.
But, as was becoming the norm in the world of football boots, there was plenty of tinkering.
A variety of different versions of the Adizero boots appeared throughout 2014, with Adidas even producing a unique multi-coloured design for Messi's birthday, which took place during the World Cup in Brazil.
The Adizero F50 boots remained Messi's favoured footwear after the tournament, but he began wearing the newer monotone coloured style instead.
Adidas Messi 15 & Messi 16
In 2015 Adidas launched an all-new range of Messi-inspired boots aptly named 'Messi 15' and they were regularly updated with various new colours for different occasions.
For example, the brand marked the occasion of the Argentine's fifth Ballon d'Or win by introducing a fresh platinum look.
Throughout 2015 and early 2016, being the brand ambassador he is, Messi wore the different Messi 15 designs brought out by Adidas.
The Messi 15 boots ranged in colours, from black and red to lime and red, as well as the aforementioned platinum editions.
Eventually Adidas and Messi moved on and the Messi 16 boots were launched the following year featuring a more metallic look that gave them a different, shiny appearance.
Like their predecessors, the Messi 16 boots were updated regularly, coming in a long list of different colourways and the Argentine would often mix things up.
For example, he may have worn a lime green and black style while playing for Barca, but favour a silver and blue style when representing his country.
Messi's current boots - Adidas Nemeziz
Messi is currently using Adidas' Nemeziz series of boots and has been doing so since 2017 when the range was initially launched.
The Barca star actually has his own particular design in the range, simply known as 'Nemeziz Messi', which incorporates his name into the upper of the boot on the sides and top.
They have come in different colour schemes and Messi initially played games wearing the white style with black and orange features.
He then moved on to the limited edition Argentina-inspired version, which are white and sky blue in colouring, a nod to the country's famous albiceleste national flag and team shirts.
Towards the end of 2017, the Argentine tended to favour the black, gold and orange Skystalker Nemeziz style.
However, he helped Adidas to launch an new design in early 2018, featuring a silver, black and blue colour scheme.
Since January, Messi has mainly worn the newest edition, but he has occasionally mixed it up.
At the time of writing, the newest Adidas Nemeziz Messi boots are on the market at £249.95, but the Argentina-inspired versions can be picked up at a reduced price of £109.98.
With the 2018 World Cup fast approaching, if recent history has been anything to go by, it won't be long before Adidas launch their next Messi-inspired boot

Over the summer we eat on-the-go a lot – in the car, at the park, at the pool, on a walk, or just in the backyard. Whether it's snacks or picnic lunches, I often stuff it in a plastic sandwich baggie, hand it to the boys, & off we go. Unfortunately, this is not the most environmentally friendly method, & after reading through this article – Ways to Think Green from the Day Your Baby is Born – I went on a hunt for cute, eco-friendly, easy to reuse food containers for my kiddos (& myself).
Why Choose to Reuse?
As moms we already have enough on our plates (yes, that's a lunch pun). We feel like we are always loading the dishwasher, doing laundry, or any of the other daily tasks that have to happen to keep the house running. Often we feel like the convenience & disposability of plastic sandwich baggies & paper bags is a good option, but the fact that they contribute to 32 million tons of plastic waste every year is staggering.
Instead of contributing to that number, there are many products on the market that are a better alternative. They are easy to wash (especially since the dishwasher & washing machine are always running anyway), & they are way cuter than boring plastic bags. They, of course, are more of an investment upfront, but that investment pays off as you continue to use them.
Another benefit of these reusable containers is that your kids can pick out their own styles. Grapes are more fun to eat if they are stored in a Superman bag, & who wouldn't want to dig into R2D2 for their lunch?? Reusable containers give you the opportunity to talk about these environmental issues with your kids in a way that is relevant to their world, & they can help make a difference from an early age.
Where to Buy Reusable Containers?
I simply went to Google & found tons of options for reusable lunch & snack containers. There are options on specialized sites as well as bigger sites like Amazon & Etsy. You can even go to Pinterest for tutorials on how to make your own reusable sandwich bags.
I've compiled some of my favorites below (these aren't affiliate links… just things I thought were cute & useful):
- DC Comics Reusable Snack Bags
- Pyrus Container Compartments Reusable Lunchboxes
- Star Wars R2D2 Bento Box
- Dabawalla Lunch Bag
- Reusable Sandwich Bag Set
- SoYoung Small Cooler Bag
- Russbe Reusable Snack & Sandwich Bag Set
- GreenPaxx Slim Snack Silicone Food Pouches
- Yummi Pouches
- Fit & Fresh Bento Box with Reusable Ice Pack
Taking these small steps isn't something to be overlooked. There is always more that we can do, but that shouldn't paralyze us & prevent us from taking any steps at all. Start small, teach your children about eco-friendly behaviors, & be mindful… those small things add up. Go here for more ideas on how to go green.

We had a good race at the annual District 37 Check Chase last Sunday. The club put together three loops of interesting desert terrain for the riders. To mix it up a little bit, the race was started by class. This kept the lines down to about 10-15 riders each. There was no bomb run to practice, so each line headed right into trail as they started.
Another interesting thing that the club did was to give the riders a choice of what order to ride the loops in. Three loops, ride them any way you wish. As my line started, I got off really slow. I pulled off to the left just a little and hit a good line that was dust free. I was able to make up a number of positions as we headed to the first single track ravine.
I was still in a bit of dust with a couple of riders right in front of me. About two miles into the loop there was the three-way split: left for loop 3, right for loop 2 and straight for loop 1. I had not really made any decision about which direction I was going to go. As we hit the split, two riders went left and two went right. I figured the best plan was just to continue straight into loop 1 as that appeared clear. Just past the split, I crested a hill and found the loop wide open in front of me. Not a single rider on my line had chosen to ride loop 1 first. For most of the loop I rode by myself. Senior rider Robert Longnecker caught and passed me early on. Right at the end of the loop there was two miles of common trail for all loops. I got stuck in a little traffic here and Paul Schafer also go by me.
Overall the course was lots of fun. It had a good variety of terrain to keep things interesting. I was hoping the third loop would be a little bit harder. The 500 KTM worked well all day. In the longer open sections it is super easy to ride. I need to dial in the suspension just a little better. I think I have my settings too stiff. The front was deflecting in the rocky sections so I had trouble charging through some of the third loop. But no problems all day, we had a fast pit and I never touched the ground all day. That is almost a win in it self.
This raced paid points for the District 37 enduro series. I finished second in class for the enduro and I am leading the Vet A class.

Guest Post: Klingon Octopus from Food Replicator
Your Kitchen Overlord foolishly tried to transport herself out of the Level 5 Biohazard zone.

As a reward for keeping our Overlord and her rather aggressive virus safely contained, we gave her free reign in the kitchen. ThisRead more

Define custom attributes in Azure Active Directory B2C
Every customer-facing application has unique requirements for the information that needs to be collected. Your Azure Active Directory B2C (Azure AD B2C) tenant comes with a built-in set of information stored in attributes, such as Given Name, Surname, City, and Postal Code. With Azure AD B2C, you can extend the set of attributes stored on each customer account.
You can create custom attributes in the Azure portal and use them in your sign-up user flows, sign-up or sign-in user flows, or profile editing user flows. You can also read and write these attributes by using the Microsoft Graph API.
Create a custom attribute
Sign in to the Azure portal as the global administrator of your Azure AD B2C tenant.
Make sure you're using the directory that contains your Azure AD B2C tenant by switching to it in the top-right corner of the Azure portal. Select your subscription information, and then select Switch Directory.
Choose the directory that contains your tenant.
Choose All services in the top-left corner of the Azure portal, search for and select Azure AD B2C.
Select User attributes, and then select Add.
Provide a Name for the custom attribute (for example, "ShoeSize")
Choose a Data Type. Only String, Boolean, and Int are available.
Optionally, enter a Description for informational purposes.
Click Create.
The custom attribute is now available in the list of User attributes and for use in your user flows. A custom attribute is only created the first time it is used in any user flow, and not when you add it to the list of User attributes.
Use a custom attribute in your user flow
- In your Azure AD B2C tenant, select User flows.
- Select your policy (for example, "B2C_1_SignupSignin") to open it.
- Select User attributes and then select the custom attribute (for example, "ShoeSize"). Click Save.
- Select Application claims and then select the custom attribute.
- Click Save.
Once you've created a new user using a user flow which uses the newly created custom attribute, the object can be queried in Microsoft Graph Explorer. Alternatively you can use the Run user flow feature on the user flow to verify the customer experience. You should now see ShoeSize in the list of attributes collected during the sign-up journey, and see it in the token sent back to your application.

A court here has taken the traffic cops to task for being oblivious to the decades old Motor Vehicles Act and asked the senior officials of the Delhi Police traffic department to give training to them.
The court gave the order while dealing with a case in which a police officer had challaned a person for carrying passengers in a private vehicle which was not meant for commercial purpose, but had not invoked appropriate sections of the law.
The court, however, was not in agreement with the response of prosecutor who said Section-192A of Motor Vehicles Act for using vehicles without permit was attracted only in cases of transport vehicles and not private vehicle.
Due to this, the zonal officer could not have invoked this provision in this case, he had said.
While taking cognisance of the offences mentioned in the challans along with section 192A of the Act, the court said "the situation gives a feeling that there is a necessity of training of police persons handling the traffic challans".
"How the persons handling the subject can be oblivious of a proposition of law, that too pronounced by the Supreme Court, declaration whereof it has to be treated as law of the land for entire country which is available in public domain for last about 50 years," Metropolitan Magistrate Rakesh Kumar Singh said.
The court asked the DCP (Traffic) Southern range to brief the challaning officers under his jurisdiction about the interpretation of law and ensure that cops properly follow law of the land.
"DCP (Traffic) Southern range shall firstly brief all the challaning officer of four circles about the interpretation of Section-192A given in the present order and the observations in the aforesaid judgment of Supreme Court and ensure that his challaning officers are dully following the law of the land.
"He shall also consider the feasibility of attachment training of challaning officers in a phased manner. DCP shall file a report within 15 days. He shall also send a copy of this order to the worthy Commissioner of Police, Delhi for his perusal and necessary action….," the court said.
The court also suggested court room training where several challans are dealt with on daily basis and challaning officers could get an opportunity to observe and learn.
"A court room can be a place where mistakes are pointed out not only by the counsel of accused persons but also by the presiding officers of courts in the course of proceedings," it said.

text: This week will challenge us to reorient our lives around a Biblical rhythm. This week will cause us to examine why we often over-work in our jobs and in our service/ministry. We will explore why we often feel driven to work for the Lord rather than rest in Him, enjoy Him, and abide in Him. As we look at the importance of physical rest and connect it also to spiritual rest in Christ.
