Wednesday's Hot Clicks: Michelle Leon; Mattel gave Ken a man bun and it's horrible
The Ken doll now has a man bun and I don't blame Barbie if she looks for another man
The Ken doll has been updated for 2017 and the results are not pretty. According to Time.com, "Mattel introduced 15 new Ken dolls with two new body types, slim and broad. Ken will also get seven new skin tones and nine new hairstyles, including cornrows, a fade and a man bun." I'm all for change, but Ken does not need a man bun. Nobody needs a man bun. BroBible has a hilarious take on the whole situation.
Social media went wild yesterday with the fun #FirstGifComesUpForYourName game, which is fairly self-explanatory. We did it with some of our favorite athletes and Vince McMahon is easily my favorite.
Hawks, Hornets make epic trade
No, I'm not talking about the big Dwight Howard swap (which Charlotte won, by the way). We're talking about the trade involving future tweets and Snapchat puppy filter, of course.
Lovely Lady of the Day
Michelle Leon: Lovely Lady of the Day
It's Wednesday and Michelle Leon is the girl I'm featuring. Sorry, LLOD creativity is a little low today (click for full-size gallery).
One guy. Seven girls.
This guy was dating seven girls at once, and got busted because of a Snapchat snafu.
Was Kim Kardashian's butt photoshopped to look bigger?
That's her contention, and as much as I hate to admit it, she might be right.

Tile layers (stored on AGOL) do not display correctly in the legend widget. With a map containing (in this order):
1 feature layer
1 tile layer
the tile layer's symbol and description become separated. The symbol appears in the top right corner of the legend. With multiple tile layers all their symbols get stacked in the top right corner of the legend widget. Feature layers are fine. Their descriptions and symbols appear in the correct place in the legend.
The tile layer was published on AGOL from a tile package.
The same result occurs if a web map (containing the layers) is added directly from AGOL using an AGOL id, or if a new web map is created and then the layers are added in the code.
Am I missing something about tile layers and legend widgets in 4.2?

At the end of World War II, an almost bankrupt Britain was determined to reinstate the old areas of European power in the 'Far East' and held Vietnam and Indonesia until France and Holland could regain control. Shortly after, as Labour was building the 'Welfare State' at home, in Malaya, which had extensive tin mines and was producing over a third of the world's natural rubber, our soldiers were fighting a counter-insurgency campaign to secure the country for British interests. In this […]

A People's History of the British Empire

Anybody wishing to read something that presents a less uncritical evaluation of these ideas and an unsanitised history of some of the "achievements" […]

The Detroit Free Press recently ran an article that told the story of James Robertson, a man who walks 21 miles a day to work, five days a week. The story went viral and the internet responded brilliantly. A GoFundMe fundraiser was created to try to raise enough money to buy a car for Robertson. In only seven hours, the crowdfund has not only reached the initial goal of raising $25,000, but has blown past it bringing in over $29,000 at the time this article was written. The crowdfund was started by Evan Leedy. Leedy is trying to get in contact with car dealerships, Ford, Chrysler, or GM to try to get a car.
The Detroit Free Press Reports:
"Leaving home in Detroit at 8 a.m., James Robertson doesn't look like an endurance athlete.
Pudgy of form, shod in heavy work boots, Robertson trudges almost haltingly as he starts another workday.
But as he steps out into the cold, Robertson, 56, is steeled for an Olympic-sized commute. Getting to and from his factory job 23 miles away in Rochester Hills, he'll take a bus partway there and partway home. And he'll also walk an astounding 21 miles.
Five days a week. Monday through Friday.
It's the life Robertson has led for the last decade, ever since his 1988 Honda Accord quit on him.
Every trip is an ordeal of mental and physical toughness for this soft-spoken man with a perfect attendance record at work. And every day is a tribute to how much he cares about his job, his boss and his coworkers. Robertson's daunting walks and bus rides, in all kinds of weather, also reflect the challenges some metro Detroiters face in getting to work in a region of limited bus service, and where car ownership is priced beyond the reach of many."
Here is a must watch video about him.
Here is what some of the backers are saying:
"Best wishes to you, James. Your story of hard work and determination touched me very much. I hope you receive enough money, not only for a car, but to pay for insurance and gas. And I really hope that you can now get more than two hours of sleep a night. Blessings to you, and thank you, Evan for starting this!"
"I'm inspired beyond words. I see this gentleman on Crooks Rd. every single day come rain or shine. I'm honored to help his cause, and I thank those that put this funding account into action. Collectively, we can make a difference. Hats off to you Mr. Robertson, you are one incredible and determined human being."
The outpouring of support from people all over the world is truly amazing. Detroit is in desperate need for improvements in their infrastructure (well the entire U.S does but Detroit especially) and we need politicians elected to the government on the local, state, and federal levels to make that happen. It is wonderful to see a man display such a diligent work ethic. No one should have to go through such extremes just to make a living though.

Dear Annie: My mom had a stroke a few months ago. My husband and I are building a house, so my brother suggested it would be easier if we stayed with her to help with her rehabilitation. But the biggest problem is that I'm out of my work right now for medical reasons and am not really able to help her. What I have done so far has only made my condition worse. How do I break this cycle? -- Feeling Hopeless
Dear Hopeless: You might feel like the situation is hopeless because both you and your mother are dealing with medical issues. However, I see a lot of hope on the horizon. Once you recover, you will be able to help your mother physically with her rehabilitation. In the meantime, you can support her emotionally and mentally by sharing stories and or perhaps by sharing your own struggles. She gets to see that she's not in this alone.
Also, you are correct that you have to focus on getting better yourself before you can help her out. There is a reason that during the airplane video they tell parents to put their masks on first before they put their child's mask on.
Let those around you support as well. Can your husband help with his mother-in-law? Of course, he might have his hands full taking care of you right now, but rather than you trying to take care of your mother, see if he can help on that front. And then there is your brother, who suggested that you live with Mom. Can he help?
Dear Annie: Thank you for printing Jim Aitken's great "Letter from Grandma," which brought tears to my eyes. It was the best letter ever. Being a grandma myself, and the same age, too, what a great thing for a grandson to do. Remembering their many conversations, he wrote the letter as if it came from his own grandma, and it was all true.
He understood her observations about aging, and how much he loved her. He truly was a great friend to his grandmother. That's really the way it should be between grandma and grandchildren -- a real friendship. We can learn a lot from each other, especially in finding beauty in the ugly part of aging. -- Just Another Grandma

Kyoto Protocol
The Pen Is Mightier
MVQ Music
"Welcome to life," declares Kyoto Protocol frontman Fuad Alhabshi on Universal Rhyme, the opening track for its new album The Pen Is Mightier.
It's an apt description of the album, which sounds like the band – which comprises Fuad, keyboardist Gael Oliveres, guitarist Hairi Haneefa, bassist Shakeil Bashir, and drummer Shanjeev Reddy – is embracing life and having more fun with its music than ever.
Its first full-length album, Catch These Men, was only released seven years after the band was formed, and had a combination of new songs and previously released singles that rounded up the band's music in those formative years.
The Pen Is Mightier, however, has the band sounding fresher and more expressive, as if free of the pressure of history they had to live up to with the first album.
The album itself has a refreshingly 90s alternative rock vibe – some songs, One Step, for instance, do sound as if the boys have been listening to way too much Foo Fighters while writing the songs, but that's not exactly a bad thing.
Soaring first single Delta Wing is still one of the best tracks on the record, but there are other highlights too, including the rocking Guilty Plea, and the aforementioned One Step, which may start off Foo Fighters-esque but sees the band quickly putting its own stamp on the tune before ending with a stunning instrumental flourish that segues perfectly into the following The End.
Universal Rhyme is another standout track, with Fuad's distinctly vocals giving it a deeper resonance, which eventually rises to a rousing finale that makes your heart soar.
It's a feeling you get constantly throughout the album, and a great indication that maybe, just maybe, Kyoto Protocol is finally ready to soar even higher.

USDA issues tips on backyard birds
WEST HAVEN >> As West Haven discusses allowing backyard poultry, the USDA-APHIS has released a statement about how to keep backyard birds healthy and protect them from infectious disease.
Avian influenza can affect all poultry, and it can be transmitted by wild birds that will be actively migrating. Not only is this important for individual flocks, but also for collectively protecting birds in the U.S. from devastating disease.
USDA-APHIS has multiple resources available to help bird owners protect their poultry, including six simple biosecurity steps to keep backyard flocks healthy:
• Keep your distance: Wild birds can carry disease to your flock. Restricting access to your birds and property can keep them healthy.
• Keep it clean: Germs can be spread quickly and easily. Prevent spread of disease by disinfecting and cleaning anything that comes in contact with your birds.
• Don't haul disease home: Wherever you travel, the germs follow. Cleaning equipment and vehicles are simple ways to prevent spread of disease.
• Don't borrow disease from a neighbor: Sharing is not caring. Do not share equipment or supplies with neighbors or other bird owners.
• Know the warning sign of infectious bird diseases: Early detection of sickness in a flock is critical. Knowing the signs of a sick bird can save the others.
• Report sick birds: When you see a disease, report it. Contact a veterinarian or call the local extension service to report any signs of illness in a flock.
For more information, go to the USDA-APHIS website.

THE longstanding tussle between the Indian security establishment and the Left extremist Communist Party of India (Maoist) is all set to enter a crucial and perhaps decisive phase in the next few months. This is the unmistakable message one gets from the developments over the past two months in New Delhi and different parts of central and eastern India.
Central to these developments and the projections that have emanated from them is the new strategy (and initiatives related to it) advanced by the Union Home Ministry and the Maoists own plans to impart a concerted thrust to their activities and spread to new areas.
Historically, the battle with the Maoists has raged since 1967 when the first Maoist rebellion erupted. The battle intensified over the last five years following the formation of the CPI (Maoist), in 2004, through the merger of two prominent naxalite groups, the Peoples War Group (PWG) and the Maoist Communist Centre (MCC).
Over the past two months the government has pressed new battalions of security forces into anti-Maoist combat operations and many of them have been deployed. There have also been discussions about involving the Army and even the Air Force in the operations.
The CPI (Maoist), on its part, has intensified its attacks in different parts of the country. They include Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Orissa, which are the organisations strongholds, the Gadchiroli region in Maharashtra, where it is apparently recapturing lost space, and parts of West Bengal, where it has made forays in the past two years.
Officials in the Home Ministry coordinating the new combat initiative say the government has ventured into this with some spectacular successes. The reference, obviously, is to the arrest of Kobad Ghandy and Amitabh Bagchi, senior politburo members of the CPI (Maoist). According to security agencies, Ghandy was arrested in New Delhi on September 21 and Bagchi in Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand, on August 24.
The Maoists responded to these captures through a series of attacks across central and eastern India. Perhaps the most daring among these was the killing of 18 members of a police party in an ambush in Gadchiroli district on October 8, five days before polling in the State Assembly elections. The brutal beheading of abducted Jharkhand Police Inspector Francis Induwar two days earlier also captured widespread attention.
While these incidents evoked strong condemnation from several quarters, many senior Maoist activists who interacted with Frontline said the purpose of the attacks was to prove that the strike power of the Maoists remained undiminished despite the capture of some leaders. All these forays have asserted that the party is moving forward in fulfilling the organisational tasks laid out by the politburo in its historic circular of June 12, said CPI (Maoist) politburo member Koteswar Rao alias Kishenji to Frontline over telephone (see interview).
The June 12 intra-party circular titled Post Election Situation Our Tasks etched out a number of immediate and long-term tasks for the cadre. Kishenjis contention was that the Gadchiroli attack and the Ranchi killing showed that the party was on course to fulfilling these tasks.
According to Union Home Secretary Gopal Krishna Pillai, the arrests of Ghandy and Bagchi signify remarkable improvement in terms of intelligence gathering vis-a-vis Maoist operations. The series of inter-State meetings the Union Home Ministry organised over the past two years at different levels of political and administrative authority resulted in better coordination among the security forces in different States and that contributed to improved intelligence gathering, Pillai told Frontline.
The new Home ministry initiative is also broadly based on the confabulations that took place over the past two years under the auspices of the Ministry and involved Chief Ministers, State Home Ministers and senior officials in government and the police departments.
The discussions essentially centred on the rising Maoist influence across the country. According to informal estimates that came up in these discussions, the CPI (Maoist) has more than 20,000 armed cadre, apart from lakhs of supporters. The number of armed cadre is supposed to have doubled in the past five years. Home Ministry officials say this is an unprecedented number for an insurgency and point out that the militant groups in Jammu and Kashmir had only 3,000 armed cadre even at the peak of the militancy. The estimates also highlighted that Maoist activity had spread to 231 of the 626 districts in the country, or 37 per cent of the districts.
According to a number of Home Ministry officials involved in the anti-Maoist operations both at the Centre and in States like Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra, the theoretical framework of the new initiative is one that has been repeated for many years and involves aggressive thrusts by the security forces, followed by the implementation of pointed development schemes for the overall socio-economic development of the local population in these areas. Where it differs from earlier plans is in the detailing and the drawing up of specific action programmes.
Union Home Ministry officials pointed out that as part of the new initiative a detailed study of the Maoist-affected areas was done and the most sensitive and difficult areas were mapped. The study identified 11 areas as most sensitive, spread over 40 districts.
According to the Home Ministrys own figures, overall Maoist influence has spread from 56 districts in 2001 to 223 in 2009. It rated approximately 70 of these as worstaffected, and the 40 identified districts in the 11 mapped areas qualify as the worst-affected among these. An additional 70 battalions of security forces have been earmarked for operations in these 11 areas. The 40-odd battalions already deployed in Maoist-affected areas would not be withdrawn even after the induction of the additional forces.
Significantly, operations would be concentrated in one or two of the 11 areas at any given point of time, thus ensuring intense mobilisation in the selected area. All the forces would be under a unified command of the special task force trained at the Counter Terrorism and Jungle Warfare College in Kanker, Chhattisgarh.
The forces deployed in an area would be followed by a back-up team that focuses on socio-economic development. Specialists in various fields, including socio-economic index researchers, development workers, health professionals, educators and others have also been recruited for the operation. Overall it is a comprehensive operational strategy that would first seek to clear an area of Maoists, occupy it militarily and follow it up with socio-economic development activity. The understanding is that it would take 18 to 24 months in each of the phases to operationalise the strategy and implement it successfully, said a senior Home Ministry official to Frontline.
A number of Maoist observers agree that this is one of the best laid out plans as far as anti-naxal operations are concerned. However, there is little agreement on the vital question whether the country and its security forces have the political and the administrative system to carry out the plan efficiently.
According to Ajit Sahni, one of the countrys foremost security analysts and executive director of the Delhi-based Institute of Conflict Management, all well-laid-out plans can come a cropper if intense efforts are not made to enhance and improve general policing and remove political intervention in, and political corruption of, the security establishment (see interview).
According to experts, the shortage in terms of police personnel in the country is to the tune of several lakhs and that, too, as per the old proportion of having an inspector and six constables in a police station. As per modern police manuals, a police station requires as many as 20 policemen in a vastly populated country like India.
Sahni and many other security specialists also pointed out that the debate on involving the Army and the Air Force in the operations was an unwanted distraction. Talking to Frontline, Sahni indicated that such discussions are ludicrous and are symptomatic of the deep malaises that afflict the system .
The debate was taken to such levels, and that too by some senior Defence officers themselves, that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh himself was forced to issue a clarification on the issue. It was the IAF vicechief, Air Marshal P.K. Barbora, who maintained that the force had asked the government to be given the authority to open fire in self-defence if fired upon by the Maoists during operations. Manmohan Singh made it clear that the government was not considering any such plan. Notwithstanding the clarification, the confusion created by the debate remained, including in some segments of the media.
Maoist leaders also believe that the government is planning to involve the Army and the Air Force in the offensive in spite of the Prime Ministers denial. According to a number of senior Maoist activists, they can see the signs of this on the ground, particularly in Chhattisgarh. The senior Air Force officers let out the truth when they raised the issue. Now the effort is to cover up, said a senior Maoist leader from Jharkhand.
Several Left-wing social activists are also of this view. Talking to Frontline, G.N. Saibaba of Delhi university said that though the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister maintained that the military would not be used in the offensive, the military was involved for several months in intelligence gathering and in training the police and paramilitary forces in jungle warfare tactics and in the processes of planning the war. The Army is also involved in constructing vast roads across the jungles for the free movement of vehicles of the security forces. The construction of a major Army base near Raipur also indicates that soon the deployment of soldiers will also happen, he said. Saibaba is of the view that for all practical purposes this is a full-scale war by the government on its own citizens.
As for the Maoists, their leadership asserted that the government initiatives would not detract them from going ahead with their plans as laid out in the June 12 circular. The 14-page note, apparently drafted by Kobad Ghandy, analyses the 2009 Lok Sabha elections in detail and terms it as a sham verdict meant to legitimise neoliberal reforms and state oppression. In the background of this analysis, the document stated that more and more people belonging to the poor and oppressed sections of society would get attracted to Maoist activities and that this needed to be strengthened.
Under a specific subheading, immediate tasks, the circular states as follows:
In order to defeat the new offensive by the enemy and to protect the gains of our peoples war it is very essential to rouse the masses throughout the country to stand up in support of the struggles in Dandakaranya, Bihar-Jharkhand, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Karnataka and other places and build a broad-based countrywide mass movement against the fascist offensive by reactionary rulers with active assistance and guidance for imperialists. To defend our guerilla bases in Dandakaranya and Bihar-Jharkhand and to advance the armed struggle in guerrilla zones we have to carry out the following immediate tasks: prepare the people, the party and the PLGA [Peoples Liberation Guerilla Army] politically to confront the brutal enemy onslaught; educate the people regarding the scale and intensity of the enemy offensive, its cruel nature and the need for enormous sacrifices on the part of the party, PLGA and the masses; take initiative unite with other struggling organisations and forces to forge strong united fronts in various parts of the country and prepare them to undertake similar operations; enhance the initiative and involvement of the mass in fighting and defeating the superior enemy forces. The manner in which we had defeated the Salwa Judum should be projected as role model to be emulated elsewhere.
The document further stated: [P]repare and mobilise the entire party, Peoples Liberation Guerilla Army and the people for carrying out tactical counter-offensives and various forms of armed resistance and inflict severe losses to the enemy forces; attacks should be organised with meticulous planning against the states khaki-and-olive-clad terrorist forces, SPOs, police informants and other counter-revolutionaries and enemies of the people; these attacks should be carried out in close coordination with, and in support of the armed resistance of the masses; these should be linked to the seizure of political power establishment of base areas.
It also pointed out that any mistake on our part will be utilised by the enemy to isolate us, rally a section of the masses and also justify his attacks on us by pointing [to] our mistakes, magnifying them and branding us as anti-people and terrorists; hence we should take extra precautions not to cause damage to peoples property or cause inconvenience to people by our actions, and to apologise for our mistakes promptly assuring the people that such mistakes will not be repeated in the future.
According to Maoist activists in Jharkhand, the areas specifically earmarked for advancing the party are North Bengal, the plains of Bihar, central districts of Orissa, east Chhattisgarh and regions in Maharashtra and Haryana that are coming under a fresh wave of industrialisation through special economic zones (SEZs). Retailers affected by multinational retail companies, people displaced or affected by SEZs and unorganized workers are special targets for recruitment in Maharashtra and Haryana. The CPI (Maoist) has also devised its own detailed plans though its emphasis on building a broad-based movement has suffered on account of brutal assaults such as the beheading of Inspector Francis Induwar in Jharkhand.
Still, Maoist cadre point out that, by and large, their activities havereceived greater acceptance among the poorest of the poor. A case in point highlighted by a senior Maoist activist of Jharkhand was the story of over two dozen tribal hamlets in the Kanker district in south Chhattisgarh, where they physically prevented the State government from setting up police stations. People of the area apparently said the village as a whole, and particularly their women, would be safer without a police force establishing the rule of law in the area.
While this is the case in a rural centre where the party is deeply entrenched, activists point to the gains made in a semi-urban centre such as Yamuna Nagar in Harayana. The town, which has a number of sugar mills, wood industries and wine mills has seen a spurt of Maoist activity in recent months. So much so, as many as 30 naxalites have been arrested since April 2009 and a large cache of ammunition and volumes of propaganda material were seized.
Talking to Frontline over telephone about the partys growth plans, CPI (Maoist) politburo member Koteswar Rao said the original aim of the party at the time of the 2004 merger was to fill the ideological vacuum in terms of Leftist, people-oriented politics. We are steadily reaching there, especially because all mainstream parties have given up on core issues of the

In last Sunday's Portuguese presidential election, Francisco Louça, the radical Left Bloc candidate, gained 5.3 percent.
Jorge Duarte Costa, of the Left Bloc, said, "Cavaco Silva was elected with 50.6 percent. Cavaco focused his campaign on 'strategical cooperation' with the Socialist Party, similar to the Labour Party, government.
"The Socialist Party's official candidate Manuel Soares got 14 percent, beaten by Maunel Alegre, who gathered votes because he was seen as independent and had a left wing aura, although he has supported the government."
"Left Bloc militants had reasons to celebrate. It was an unforgettable campaign, with some of the biggest meetings of the far left since the 1974 revolution against the dictatorship. Francisco Louça received almost 300,000 votes, the second best result for the Left Bloc in its seven years of existence.
"There are no more elections in Portugal for three years. This election has stabilised the political elite for a while. It is time for the left to mobilise."

Shaping That Vote-Winning Look
- Staff Writer
- Feb. 19 2002 00:00
Self-help books may be a cheaper option, but increasingly, politicians and businessman are turning to professional consultants for advice on what to wear and how to speak, whether that be in order to get re-elected, gain influence or make friends in high places.
Experts say that merely dressing up clients and brushing their teeth is not enough to give them a winning look.
"The image is the last thing, the frame for the picture," said Larisa Isayeva, a stylist at Image Contact agency, which coached Naina Yeltsin during Boris Yeltsin's re-election campaign for president in 1996. One of its more recent successes was the election of Sergei Darkin as governor of the Primorye region.
"You can't just go to a good hairdresser and a good shop and then run for the presidency," Isayeva said.
The image has to be linked to the purpose. As a stylist, Isayeva was at first appalled at what Moscow Mayor Yury Luzhkov wore, but she finally realized that his presentation was in line with the image he wanted to portray: that of an active manager who builds roads and gets dirty to help the city.
With 500 employees, Image Contact is one of the local public-relations industry's biggest consultancies, with various departments offering help in such areas as team-building, speechwriting, crisis training, election analysis and psychotherapy.
Another leader in the field is the Niccolo M consultancy, which helped 49 deputies enter parliament in 2000 and worked on the Mongolian presidential election last year.
In 1996, Niccolo M worked on Boris Yeltsin's re-election campaign and considered getting Yeltsin to wear glasses. A pair was chosen after consultations with eyewear experts, but the plan was later ditched. Although Yeltsin looked wise, "like a professor," according to Niccolo M's PR director, Andrei Birukov, he lost the fighter image that his election campaign needed.
Style consultants say there are some basic principles that can be taught to anyone.
"Some businessmen don't know what to do with their hands, legs, head," said Birukov. "They don't know how to sit."
Others insist on wearing their favorite color on television.
"If a lady likes red, it is prohibited," said Birukov, who said it looks bad on television and is "a message of aggression and danger."
Other tips are to avoid wearing white shirts for television appearances as the white color will flare up, and women should change their makeup gradually during the day, from minimal in the morning to medium at lunch and heavy in the evening.
Alexei Sitnikov of Image Contact estimated that about 65 percent to 70 percent of demand was from politicians, but said the relationship between big business and politics was such that it was becoming difficult to separate the two.
The image and help a client needs depends on his or her position. For a local election, it may take a few months' work to prepare campaign staff for a candidate, canvass the electorate, examine the candidate's target audience, coordinate the advertising campaign and choose the image best suited for the election and the candidate
"It's better that a person has no image at all," said Sitnikov, so the consultants can create something from scratch.
For a businessman eager to develop a reputation in the West, consultants will usually have to work longer than a few months, perhaps even a few years.
"Top managers are trying to establish their own image in the West," said Sitnikov. "In the West, some imagine that every Russian is mafia. Everyone is trying to avoid this stamp."
Sitnikov says the most important thing is that clients learn how to be at ease and accepted in the West and not stick out like sore thumbs. This can mean lessons in jokes, styles of behavior -- how to act at the races or at a golf club -- and conversational standbys such as knowledge of what is in the tabloid newspapers.
"We do the same for our provincial politicians when they come to Moscow so they can be accepted into Moscow society," said Sitnikov.
Consultants will advise a politician on how to dress, Sitnikov said, whether it be a provincial politician who needs to dress up when coming to Moscow, or a Muscovite who needs to dress down for a trip to the provinces. After all, as Birukov said, it may not be right for a politician to wear a $40,000 Rolex if he's going to the provinces.

It is common knowledge that GPUs can dramatically accelerate HPC and machine learning/AI workloads, but can they do the same for general purpose analytics? In this talk, Todd Mostak, CEO of MapD, will provide real-world examples of how a new generation of GPU-powered analytics platforms can enable enterprises from a range of verticals to dramatically accelerate the process of insight generation at scale. In particular, he will focus on how the key technical differentiators of GPUs: their massive computational bandwidth, fast memory, and native rendering pipeline, make them uniquely suited to allow analysts and data scientists to query, visualize and power machine learning over large, often high-velocity, datasets. Using the open source MapD analytics platform as an example, Todd will detail the technical approaches his team took to leverage the full parallelism of GPUs and demo how the platform allows analysts to interactively explore datasets containing tens of billions of records.
As people wish to interactively explore increasingly larger datasets, existing tools are unable to deliver acceptable performance. The distributed-nature of systems like Spark leads to latencies detrimental to interactive data exploration, while single-node visualization solutions like Tableau and Qlikview are not powerful enough to deliver sub-second response times for even intermediate-sized datasets. In this talk, we will argue that dense GPU servers, containing 4-16 GPUs each, can provide analytics query throughput exceeding what can be achieved on even large clusters, while avoiding the latencies and complications associated with running over a network. We will look at MapD, which can query and visualize multi-billion row datasets in milliseconds, as an example of such a system. Finally, we will show how the significantly higher performance achievable with a GPU system translates into new modes and paradigms of data analysis.
Most of what claims to be interactive visualization of big datasets relies on one of two strategies: pre-canning and sampling. However, both of these techniques have well-known limitations. Enter Map-D, a distributed end-to-end data analytics and visualization platform that can run on any number of GPUs, allowing millisecond query latencies over multi-terabyte datasets. In addition to supporting ultra-fast relational table and array querying, Map-D uses the native graphics pipeline of the GPU to render 2D and 3D visualizations of the results. By streaming these visualizations to a user''s browser via interactive 30fps H264 video, it can appear as if billions of data points are in the DOM, even on low-powered mobile clients.
map-D makes big data interactive for anyone! map-D is a super-fast GPU database that allows anyone to interact and visualize streaming big data in real time. Its unique architecture runs 70-1,000x faster than other in-memory databases or big data analytics platforms. To boot, it works with any size or kind of dataset; works with data that is streaming live on to the system; uses cheap, off-the-shelf hardware; is easily scalable.map-D is focused on learning from big data. At the moment, the map-D team is working on projects with MIT CSAIL, the Harvard Center for Geographic Analysis and the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Join Todd Mostak and Tom Graham, key members of the map-D team, as they demonstrate the speed and agility of map-D and describe the live processing, search and mapping of over 1 billion tweets.
Map-D (Massively Parallel Database) uses multiple NVIDIA GPUs to interactively query and visualize big data in real-time. Map-D is an SQL-enabled column store that generates 70-400X speedups over other in-memory databases. This talk discusses the basic architecture of the system, the advantages and challenges of running queries on the GPU, and the implications of interactive and real-time big data analysis in the social sciences and beyond.

3 Top Tips for Hiring Managers in 2020
The end-to-end recruitment process is one that is evolving. Therefore everybody involved in such a process is having to evolve too. This includes potential candidates, recruiters, talent acquisition professionals and of course hiring managers themselves! To ease into this period of transformation, Risk and Compliance Consultant at Huxley, Joshua Hawthorne, has put together some simple tips which aim to help hiring managers to engage with the world of 2020 recruitment.
1) Candidate experience is everything
Employment is in abundance in Australia right now, across the majority of industries. With so many options for candidates to choose from right now, and the competition between organisations to secure talent stronger than ever, providing an exceptional candidate experience is or should be at the forefront of every employer's mind! It is this crucial process that essentially ends up converting potential candidates into future employees.
It is worthwhile to keep in mind that any interviewee for a role could be engaged in numerous processes at any given time, and therefore the need to stand out from the crowd is what could set your organisation apart. Utilizing technology to streamline and optimize the hiring process should be first and foremost on the list of priorities. Ensuring that your company's website is not only customer-friendly, but also comes across as a great place to work is a good starting point. From there, you need to make sure your career site or page is up to date and user-friendly. You should use this technology in conjunction with a recruitment agency in order to achieve the best results, and we will talk through the role of a recruiter here in the point below.
The overall candidate experience should ultimately go hand in hand with your organisation's company culture, employer branding, and strategy. This will help create an approach to hiring which is more in line with your brand. Get your company's core message(s) across and make sure candidates are getting an accurate representation of what the business is actually about – that way you will be attracting the right kind of people for your brand.
2) Don't underestimate the role of a recruiter
While the improvements in technology can definitely speed up the hiring process and have made vast improvements in the way we hire, it is important to remember that technology should enhance recruitment, and not replace it. The role of a recruiter is more important than ever in today's society, with there being a need for equal parts autonomy and human interaction in the hiring process. You don't want to miss out on great candidates due to lack of communication throughout the interview process, and recruiters will ensure this is never the case. They will help keep candidates informed and up to date and will avoid that ''ghosting'' that so many experience.
Recruiters will help monitor how candidates are finding your hiring process, and this will largely determine the impression they have of their organisation upon leaving it, whether or not they transition into a new hire. A recruiter will also source, screen and prepare candidates for interview, avoiding any unnecessary time wasting and ensuring you're being presented with the best possible options for the job. By teaming your technology alongside building a strong relationship with recruiters you are essentially delivering a double tonged approach.
Speaking of the above, building a strong relationship with a recruiter requires effort from both parties. Keeping them as in the loop and as informed as possible, as well as incorporating them into your hiring strategy will really help you in the long run. They are there to assist you in your search, so utilising their resources, and viewing them as a help and not a hindrance, is crucial if you want to see them add value and results to your business.
3) Incorporate pre-boarding into your hiring strategy
According to this article by HCA, the average employee turnover rate is 18%, as opposed to the ideal which is 10%. This is obviously a major worry for any employer and can be a huge hit to an organisation when an employee leaves, both in a financial sense and from a business perspective. There are many reasons to why an employee feels the need to look elsewhere, including poor management, lack of career progression, work overload and issues with salary. Other reasons why one might decide to leave may include having an incorrect perception of what the role or company would be like prior to joining, not being fully committed before beginning the onboarding process or being disappointed with the reception they have received upon joining a team.
A sure-fire way to avoid all of the above as much as possible is to improve and evolve your pre-boarding experience as much as possible. This time between a candidate accepting an offer and the day they start work is often severely neglected. However, this is actually a crucial period in the recruitment life cycle. During this time, it's important to remember that said candidate could actually still be involved in a number of processes, and just because they have accepted doesn't mean everything is set in stone. They're bound to be nervous, and so during this interim period as a hiring manager, you should be focused on ensuring they are excited about their start date and looking forward to joining the team. If at all possible, getting them to meet the rest of the team prior to starting is a great way of breaking the ice and easing them in, and that can be by way of a less formal social activity such as a team lunch or outing.
Any information on the company, including documents on company culture and benefits, should be sent to the candidate prior to the start date. Encouraging their colleagues to connect with them on LinkedIn and even send a brief welcome message will also help put a face to a name and promote inclusion. Obviously, the goal is not to overload or overwhelm them, but making sure they're kept in the loop is important, particularly if their start date is not for a while. If you can, sending them on a tentative schedule of what their first few weeks will look like in the business, including any training sessions or learning and development opportunities, will let them know what's expected of them and allow them to plan their time accordingly from the get-go.
In a recruitment landscape that is changing and evolving at a rapid speed, it is easy to lose sight of the end goal – hiring and retaining quality staff. The above tips are just some approaches that can be implemented to help you achieve this and to help you attract the right people for your open roles accordingly. As mentioned above, as recruiters we are here to help. Please feel free to reach out to myself or one of my colleagues at the following contact details – we would be more than happy to discuss your hiring needs!

Roy Choi's LocoL Will Soon Add A Food Truck

Socially-conscious restauranteur Roy Choi opened the first brick-and-mortar outpost of his "revolutionary fast food" chain LocoL, which focuses of bringing affordable and healthy fast food to underserved neighborhoods, in Watts this January. Now, it looks like Choi will soon be bringing the bounty of LocoL to the streets, with a LocoL food truck slated for operation this fall.
"Say hello to the #LocoL low rider," Choi wrote in an Instagram post Thursday, sharing a photo of a beat-up looking food truck, which he promised would be ready to serve in September. The addition of a LocoL food truck certainly takes things full circle for Choi, who (long before his restaurant and hotel empire) first made his name with his wildly popular Kogi BBQ truck.
We can't wait.

W. Bland Williamson, Jr. named 2011 Tulsa, Oklahoma Oil & Gas Best Lawyer of the Year by Best Lawyers®
W. Bland Williamson, Jr. has watched the oil and gas industry and accompanying regulations change remarkably since he first became affiliated with Pray Walker and its predecessors in 1969.
Williamson first worked for the government for six years before coming to Tulsa.
"When the government started imposing price controls on crude oil, I started to learn about the industry and have been involved with oil and gas ever since," Williamson recalls.
Since then, he has developed a lifelong career with extensive experience in the drafting and negotiation of natural gas contracts, as well as the litigation respecting the interpretation and enforcement of natural gas contracts.
Williamson earned his JD from Emory University in 1963 and has been selected for inclusion by The Best Lawyers in America since its inception in 1983. "I love the people who are involved in the oil and gas industry, and have made many friends along the way," he says.
Williamson says he hopes the Congress will address the country's dependence on foreign oil in an aggressive manner.
"I hope that we will adopt a more aggressive attitude toward the use of natural gas, since that's the one commodity we appear to have in abundance right now as opposed to the other potential energy sources," he says. "We must try to develop everything we have including oil, gas, nuclear, solar, and wind power. Natural gas is the only asset that can make a meaningful difference right now. Congress has done nothing but discourage the use of natural gas rather than encourage it."
