Weekly Photo Challenge: Green | Rafting
Green means whitewater rafting down a raging Nantahala River in a green raft.
As We Live Our Lives Moments In a Day Stand Apart
June 18th 2009, a day that stands apart.
On the Nantahala river in Western North Carolina in celebration of
my 53rd birthday the following day on the 19th of June.
A contemplative day full of energy and colors….
We can never have enough of nature. We must be refreshed by the
sight of inexhaustible vigor, vast and titanic features, the sea-coast with its
wrecks, the wilderness with its living and its decaying trees, the
thunder-cloud, and the rain. …Henry David Thoreau
I love this quote because during our 3 hour trek rafting down the river,
it began to rain hard with severe thunderstorms. What an incredible experience battling the
elements as we faced the challenge of the rapids.
If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of
grass springing up in the fields has power to move you, if the simple things of
nature have a message that you understand, rejoice, for your soul is alive. …Eleonora
Duse (1858-1924)
Our thoughts are like the waves of a whitewater river. They rise
and fall relentlessly. Our minds, like the lower depths of the river, become
increasingly more settled as we immerse ourselves in our meditation practice. …Walter W. Smith
In a new day that stands
apart, we remove ourselves from yesterday's trials (the painful past and
uncertain future) and find insight in the quiet of the present moment. We are in
touch with our bodies—moving the energy through the chakras.
Today, hold the past in your
hands. Hold your two hands out in front of you and allow them to fill
with the past, your past, every moment of it. All that happened and did
not happen, all that was wonderful and all that simply was. Let it all
fill your hands.
And now, as you continue to hold
your past in your hands, turn your inner vision to your heart. See how
your heart is clean and clear, free of any regret or longing. Your heart
is beating in this moment and this moment only. …author unknown
As the details of our lives become memories and the moments of
life stand apart, what brings joy, peace and happiness to you? What are some of
your experiences that you embrace with fondness and love? What are your
thoughts? Please do share a moment or two with us.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Water
My first image for the Weekly Photo Challenge: Water, is a photograph of a 2009 whitewater rafting tour on the Nantahala River in North Carolina. A great tour indeed, which featured all categories of rapids. We dared all but the 5th category rapid.
I really loved this experience on the river and all watersports as well.

Module 2- Courts and Alternative Dispute Resolution
Module 2- Courts and Alternative Dispute Resolution
Case 3-3 "Discovery"
Should a party to a lawsuit have to hand over its confidential business secrets as part of a discovery request? Why or why not? What limitations might a court consider imposing before requiring ATC to produce this material?
The party to the law suit should hand over information during the discovery phase. However, discovery is allowed only if the information is relevant to the claim or defense of any party. Now handing over confidential business secrets to the opposing party should be up to the defendant's discretion to decide whether he or she may want to pass that sensitive information. In page 72 under "Discovery" it explains that a court can deny the request and can limit the scope of discovery in a number of ways. ATC not only has to worry about protecting their business during the lawsuit but they also have to protect their customer's right to privacy, especially if they are not involved in that lawsuit. Courts are willing to protect the privacy of third parties and can put limits on how much information can be put out about someone who is not in the lawsuit. The book explains; "That a court can require the party to submit the materials to the judge in a sealed envelope so that the judge can decide if they should be disclosed to the opposing party." There are limitations that a court might consider imposing but the extent of its protection varies from state to state. However, the only limitations that may be considered before requiring ATC to provide other material information that is relevant to the claim.

KPMG: Price sensitivity and product quality, the key to success in 2012
Despite a Sluggish Revenue Forecast for 2012, Consumer Companies Plan to Invest in Emerging Markets, Product Innovation and Mobile Commerce, says KPMG survey.
• Nearly half of companies identify the US and Canada as the markets with the most promise for near-term growth
• New product strategies hold the most potential for growth in emerging markets
• Sustainable practices evolve as more than half of CFOs see positive impact on operating costs
• CFOs see mobile technology as the most promising for driving sales
Nearly four out of 10 financial executives from the world's leading global consumer companies expect their revenues to be lower in 2012 than 2011, yet many say they are still planning to invest in new markets, products and mobile commerce to grow market share, according to KPMG International's annual Consumer CFO Survey.
KPMG's 2012 Consumer CFO Survey: Turning Global Risk into Opportunity surveyed 350 senior financial executives at leading global retailers, and food, drink, and consumer goods manufacturing companies in December 2011. A series of in-depth interviews with the CFOs at Tiffany & Co., Dollar General, Fonterra, Metcash, Coop Lombardia and Aurora Fashions, were also conducted for the report.
Even with growth projected to be slow in the US and Canada, 43.6 percent of respondents believe those two markets will provide the greatest opportunity for growth over the next 2 years, with China and Brazil ranking second and third, respectively.
As Dinu Bumbacea, Management Consulting Partner at KPMG in Romania comments: "The global financial crisis has had a major impact on Romanian consumer behavior. Customers are now more price-sensitive than ever, but also willing to spend on quality if they think they are getting value from their purchases. Tracking consumer behavior and changing product strategy in-line with its evolution will be critical to success. But companies must be careful not to dilute their brands, or lose coherence through overly frequent changes to their products and pricing"
"Surprisingly, even with the bulk of new consumers coming from Asia and India, and fragile consumer confidence in developed markets, the majority of respondents globally see North America as a great growth opportunity, at least in the short term ", said Willy Kruh, KPMG Global Chair of Consumer Markets.
Notwithstanding, more than two-thirds of respondents say they are increasing their budgets over last year in preparation for expansion to new markets—with over 80 percent saying that marketing to new middle class consumers in emerging high-growth markets will drive long-term success. Respondents from the Asia Pacific region are most likely (44 percent) to be increasing this year's overall budgets than other regions as they target neighboring markets.
Even with tempered optimism for growth and expansion, however, the biggest threats according to survey respondents continue to be economic uncertainty for 44 percent, followed by political instability (27 percent) and sovereign debt crises (21 per cent).
Product innovation leads the growth strategies that companies are pursuing this year with over 40 percent of respondents in North and Latin America, Asia Pacific and the Middle East /Africa saying they will adapt products developed for their home markets to meet the needs of others. European companies, however, were more likely to sell their products unchanged in other markets, adapting only the labeling, packaging and/or instructions.
"The overall goal among respondents is clearly one of growth", said Kruh. "Which strategies companies pursue depends on the maturity of a given market. We're seeing that in emerging markets, product innovation has the most potential as a growth strategy. But most important, as many of our respondents have remarked, it's always critical to determine how well an opportunity aligns with a company's core competencies and if there's willingness to wait for the return on investment."
Sustainability continues a steady climb up the corporate agenda. Nearly three-quarters of the respondents cite sustainability as a tool for competitive positioning, innovation and brand reputation. Moreover, over half say that sustainability has had a positive impact on their operating costs and increasingly on sales and market value.
This year, over a third of respondents will use mobile technology to maximize sales, outranking both the internet and e-commerce. Customer relationship management (CRM) placed second behind mobile as the technology most likely to positively impact sales.
"In the space of just a few years, mobile has transformed the landscape for the retail and consumer sectors. Mobile technology is a key tool for driving sales and awareness, both in developed and emerging markets"said Bumbacea. "Location-based services can help to drive traffic to stores, and be used to reach out to customers on a real-time basis about offers and promotions. But mobile also shifts the balance of power between customer and company. With constant access to price information, consumer reviews and competitor information, customers are more knowledgeable than ever. Building strong, lasting relationships with these customers will be a key challenge in the coming years." notes Dinu Bumbacea.
"The growth picture for consumer companies is quite divergent and this year will be a turning point for them", commented Kruh. "Those that successfully make the right trade-offs between investing in developed and emerging markets, are attuned and responsive to the continuing price sensitivity among consumers, and grasp the ongoing importance of product quality and perceived value as well as service localization should see their efforts rewarded."

The elder Jackson says he asked Katherine to reach out to Michael before his death because "I thought he was looking kinda funny and frail a bit." (Suddenly he thought Michael looked kinda funny?) But Katherine fretted about invading Michael's privacy, and the two argued on several occasions
about intervening.
"I told her, I said this would never have happened if you had went and been with him," Joe Jackson says in a (likely lucrative) interview with Britain's News of the World.

Although I had a great day of early winters work on Ledge route a couple of weeks ago today really felt like winter started for me. The first route of the season and Dave and I decided to gamble on a little-known crag on Carn Dearg Mheadhonach.
We abseiled in to have a look around and although there was some fresh snow about it wasn't of any concern, this changed considerably as the day went on, with some deep pockets of soft windslab forming. The crag looked wintery and the turf is frozen but there is nothing holding it all together at the moment so we decided to play it safe and climb what looked to be the best line for the conditions. Casablanca IV,5 80m, isn't in the guidebook but it is the SMC journals and it gave us two interesting pitches but we thought it was more like IV,4 and the route length is actually only 60m but it is definitely worth looking out if you want to climb on a quiet crag or somewhere a little different.

4 March 2012, Development - Character Development in the Picture of the Creative Process
Introduction: I realized that I need to introduce this blog a little. I wrote the novel Aksinya: Enchantment and the Daemon. The working title was Daemon, and this was my 21st novel. Over the last year, I gave you the entire novel in installments that included commentary on the writing. In the commentary, in addition to other general information on writing, I explained, how the novel was constructed, the metaphors and symbols in it, the writing techniques and tricks I used, and the way I built the scenes. You can look back through this blog and read the entire novel.
I'm using this novel as an example of how I produce, market, and eventually (we hope) get a novel published. I'll keep you informed along the way.
Today's Blog: To see the steps in the publication process, visit my writing website http://www.ldalford.com/ and select "production schedule," you will be sent to http://www.sisteroflight.com/.
As you might have surmised from my description of the development of Aksinya as a character, the demon also must have a developed character before the novel starts. A novel is not really a place to develop a character but rather to reveal a character. The main character might show a change in character--that is true character development, but there always exists at the beginning a character that the author reveals. I am using the language very specifically here--if it sounds strange to you, think about it. A character already has a developed character before the novel begins. Within the novel, the author reveals the character of the characters. The main character might have a change in character. We usually call the revelation of the character character development. As I pointed out, this is sloppy use of language.
I showed you parts of the character of Aksinya. Within the novel, I reveal the depth of Aksinya's character to you. I also do this with the demon. I don't wish to say the demon is a simpler character, but the reality is that he is more simple than a human. That doesn't mean his actions as less complex--the demon always acts in a singular fashion. A great deal of the novel is to reveal this to Aksinya. As it is revealed to Aksinya, it is also revealed to the reader.
Asmodeus has the character of a demon--we'll look at that tomorrow.
I'll repeat my published novel websites so you can see more examples: http://www.ldalford.com/, and the individual novel websites: http://www.aegyptnovel.com/, http://www.centurionnovel.com/, http://www.thesecondmission.com/, http://www.theendofhonor.com/, http://www.thefoxshonor.com/, and http://www.aseasonofhonor.com/.

AH&D Hoisting Engine
As most of know there is no "Donkey Engines" available in 1:20 scale so if you want one it is a do-it-yourself project. I decided one winter to tackle the job as I wanted a unit to use at a log dump site on my future sawmill log pond. I decided on the American Hoist & Derrick Company engine for two reasons; it was a suitable engine for the use I wanted, also, but most importantly I had an old CHB models kit in O scale that I built years ago that I could use as a blue print.
The build photo's show the size comparison between the O scale and the 1:20 scale versions. Pretty dramatic size difference, huh. The donkey and sled are completely scratch built using mostly styrene plastic and odd pieces of wood and metal as required. A few manufactured parts were used such as NBW's, water valves, gears, etc. Some commerical parts were re-directed such as the coat buttons turned into crank disc's.
The engine was built in sections like the prototype; the base skid with the boiler, then main, trip, and straw drum assemblies bolted onto the base skid. This procedure made it much eaiser to disassemble everything for painting and re-assembly.
As can be seen in the finish photo's I mounted the engine on a full length skid and added the fairleads, water tank, and roof cover as well as a few details. The crew are all homemade figures in 1:20 scale. The theme of the diorama is that the engine is idled down for lunch break, and crew boss Sven is telling Pete and "Pop" Jenkins about the trout he caught out at the lake last evening after work. Judging by the spread of his hands, I think he is exaggerating just a bit! - RICK

More than 100 protected raptors meet their death in Malta
Hundreds of protected birds of prey have been shot down by Maltese hunters in spite of the presence of large numbers of police and numerous bird conservationists.
Members of the German-based Committee Against Bird Slaughter (CABS), which is monitoring bird migration over Malta with the support of International Animal Rescue and a team of 24 activists from Europe and further afield, spoke of a huge massacre and said they would demand that the Maltese Government end this season's hunting immediately.
With a strong oncoming wind over the Mediterranean, more than 1,000 harriers, honey buzzards and falcons reached the Maltese islands just days ago to rest before continuing their journey to Africa – with fatal consequences. Near the town of Rabat a CABS team observed hunters opening fire at a group of marsh harriers, at least two of which were hit and fell to the ground. Subsequently the team filmed the hunter picking up the birds and taking to his heels. Previously hunters near the Blue Grotto had literally torn a kestrel to pieces with six shots before the very eyes of the CABS observers. Later at 23:00 hrs, at a harrier roost south of Xemxija, team members witnessed a group of hunters firing a number of shots and subsequently searching the area with the use of headlamps and torches. At Buskett Gardens, the most important roosting area on the main island, observers recorded the arrival of at least 500 honey buzzards, 200 marsh harriers, some 90 hobbys as well as dozens of other birds including osprey, kestrel and lesser kestrel. Thanks to the presence of numerous police officers and ornithologists the situation remained relatively quiet. "Sadly this proved to be the calm before the storm" commented CABS General Secretary Alexander Heyd. The 38 year old botanist and ornithologist was on duty early, together with five colleagues, on the edge of the FKNK game reserve near Mizieb, where some 120 marsh harriers had gone to roost the previous evening. "A real shooting match involving some 40 hunters began shortly after 5:30 hrs. As soon as a raptor took to the air it was shot at. We counted at least 150 shots and saw at least six birds fall to the ground. A further 15 birds were hit but continued their flight."
Another team of Bird Guards were deployed to the south of the Fiddien Reservoir where 20-30 marsh harriers landed at dusk. Despite the presence of the Guards the following morning, birds leaving the roost came under fire from all sides. "I was amazed at the audacity and brutality with which the flock was almost completely wiped out" reports Bird Guard Shai Agmon. For the 34 year old Israeli conservationist it is the first time on Malta. "This was a completely new and horrifying experience for me and I will be briefing the Israeli news media and my professional colleagues on the unbelievable situation in Malta".
CABS further reports that two shot and injured honey buzzards were delivered to the International Animal Rescue rehabilitation centre. Sadly their chances of recovery are slight.
"These observations are only the tip of the iceberg. We estimate that more than a hundred protected birds, some of them extremely rare species, have been killed in the past two days" David Conlin, a CABS member from Wales (UK) summarises. Alexander Heyd comments further: "The continuing assertions by the hunting federation FKNK that the poachers are a handful of black sheep has, as far as I am concerned, been empty words all along. Our data lead us to a completely different conclusion, namely that the majority of hunters participate in illegal hunting." In view of today's events CABS will demand of the Maltese government that an immediate ban on all hunting be imposed until raptor migration is over. Thought must also be given to declaring the FKNK wooded game reserve at Mizieb, and other important roosting places, exclusion zones for hunters and subsequently designated bird protection areas. A submission to the Environment Ministry, as well as a report on illegal hunting for the Environment Directorate of the European Commission, is currently in preparation and will be sent shortly.

Martha worked in a radio-biology lab in Manhattan, and when Larry, her husband of seven years, left her at last for the cause of art, she decided to accept the longstanding invitation from a lab in Los Angeles to visit their operation and talk about her work. She left her Alsatian with someone she knew from her women's group, packed her suitcase first with clothes she imagined to be appropriate to LA and then with those she imagined to be wildly inappropriate, and after picking up a small lead-lined attaché case of radioactive samples from the lab, she boarded an enormous jet that transported her without the least sensation of motion to Los Angeles.
Katherine, whom she had not seen since college, met her at the airport in a white GTO convertible. They had some trouble recognizing each other at first because in the ten years since their last meeting, Martha had come to pay less attention to her looks and Katherine more, but it was really only an instant of uncertainty, and Katherine had told her to watch for the car. 'I'll be wearing a white convertible in my buttonhole' was actually what she'd said.
They embraced when they met, and Katherine, who was now an actress, cried, proving once again to Martha that you become what you imitate, since Katherine had never before been histrionic in any way. Still, Martha was touched. Then they drove. While they drove they talked, and while they talked they smoked. When they got off the freeway, Katherine took advantage of a traffic light to open her door and empty the car's ashtray onto the street. Martha, looking out her window, saw that the man in the MG next to them was emptying his ashtray too. He smiled at her and waved.

Here's what you need to know about black tar heroin, where it comes from, and why it is known as a dirty, dangerous street drug in America.
- It is an illegal, unregulated drug that's processed from morphine – the naturally occurring opioid that's derived from the opium poppy.
It was introduced to US drug users in the 1970s, where it quickly became popular among drug users who were seeking a cheap alternative to prescription opiates and pure heroin.
This drug is in the same class of drugs as regular heroin and controlled prescription opioid painkillers like Oxycontin and Vicodin.
Street Names for Black Tar Heroin include:
- Cheeb
- Muck
- Tar
- Mexican Mud
The term "Mexican Mud" is due to the fact that most it is made in drug labs in Mexico and throughout Latin America.
It is usually dark and sticky, similar to roofing tar; it can also be dried, creating a hard, coal-like lump that can be ground down into a brown or black powder.
In most cases, users heat up the sticky, dark substance to liquefy it, and then inject it into a vein using a small-gage syringe.
Just like with 'regular' white powder it can also be smoked; some users also report turning the tar-like substance into a power that they use to snort.
Dangers of Using Black Tar Heroin
While using any type of legal or illegal opiate increases your risk of suffering from serious drug-related side effects, black tar heroin use comes along with some extra dangers.
Because it is usually sticky, when users inject this drug, their veins collapse quickly – this means users have to constantly search for new injection sites.
Some people who use this drug even resort to shooting the drug directly into their muscles or under their skin (sub-q), which increases the chances of developing life-threatening bacterial infections, including flesh-eating disease.
It is also a notoriously 'dirty' drug, thanks to the fact that it's filled with impurities created by crude manufacturing methods.
Black Tar Heroin Potency
Unlike other opiates, the potency of black tar heroin is completely inconsistent because it's made using crude, unregulated processing methods. The potency can vary wildly from one dose to the next – this means users never really know how much they can 'safely' use to get high without overdosing.
Some reports indicate that the purity of this drug sold through street dealers ranges in purity from 10 percent all the way up to 80 percent; this lack of consistency in the purity has been linked to a number of overdose deaths across the United States.

Lest you think I over-state the case read on. I do offer an alternative: these guys really do know the history of 2nd term and election year Supreme Court timely nominations and rapid confirmations but consciously choose to lie about them.
John Nichols (The Nation) in Republicans Are Now Waging a War on Facts, Precedent, and the Constitution lists the many instances of interim (recess) appointments to the Supreme Court and election year nominations and rapid Senatorial action. President Obama's impending nomination is not exceptional. It is not an executive branch overreach. Any argument along those lines is simply bogus. In the end, the only thing to believe is that the GOPlins are willing to burn the constitution and scrap our form of government in order further their own ambitions.
Nichols concludes:
No one expects Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio to be anything less than ruthless partisans. And if the 2016 race has confirmed anything, it is that the senators from Texas and Florida are as unfamiliar with the facts about Supreme Court nominations as they are with basic premises of the Constitution. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell is better informed; yet he has made it clear that his mission is to obstruct President Obama. That certainly creates political challenges when it comes to filling the vacancy created by the death of Justice Scalia. And it is fine to focus on the excesses of partisanship that are now on display. But that certainly does not justify unquestioning repetition of the false constructs, radical rewrites of history, and mischaracterizations of constitutional language, intents, and practices now being peddled by partisans who make absurd assertions without conscience or credibility.
Indeed, to treat seriously what Cruz, Rubio, Kasich, and McConnell are now saying is to foster a fantasy that is at odds with American history and with the constitutionally defined duties of presidents and senators.

Cheerful Sunflower
While it is steaming and hot outside, I have been inside crafting! I tried a technique that I had first seen shared by Jessica Frost Ballas. I used a new stamp from Technique Junkies, Sunflower Duo, distress inks and Copics. You can get this stamp for 10% off (as well as your entire cart) with code TJ10LeeAnn.
Instead of starting by stamping the image, I started by smooshing distress inks from my craft mat onto my watercolor paper. I dried the ink in between layers. Once I was happy with the distress ink background, I stamped the image and added more color with Copics.
Did a little fussy cutting along the right side of the image panel and then added a sentiment. The sentiment, from the Grand Greetings Stamp Set, was heat embossed on vellum. Lastly, I added a sponged scallop die cut and some sequins for sparkle.
I am linking up to The Flower Challenge where this month's challenge is to use a past challenge. I am using challenge 12- tic tac toe- distress inks/embossing/sentiment.
I am also linking up to Crafty Cardmakers for their Wet or Dry Embossing challenge~

Once upon a time I came across a recipe that called for whipped goat cheese. So I took my basket and headed to the grocery store, where I eventually found a small tub of the stuff at three times the cost of regular, ordinary, every-day goat cheese.
When I finally had a minute to spare I sat down and examined the label. The ingredients were goat cheese and water… and a few chemicals. It seemed I'd bought a processed food fortified with who knows what. And I thought: why can't I make that myself – and leave out the chemicals? More

Anyone who's skated Ottawa's Rideau Canal knows all about our iconic BeaverTails. Nobody ever leaves the ice without a bite of these sugary deep-fried pastries decorated with cinnamon, chocolate, or lemon, or some other delightful combination of sweet and sour.
As I was focusing on Ottawa's winter wonderland for my gourmet dinner party, Frozen in Ottawa, I thought tiny BeaverTails would make a perfect hors d'oeuvre. They would go well with the sweetly tart cocktail we served, Frozen Blues.
BeaverTails are served hot on the Canal. But as my theme was "frozen," I served mine cold. More

Avocado crostini with goats cheese and chouriço, garnished with pistachios and red endive
The little bites at the start of a meal are often what we remember best. Here's an easy appetizer that should hit a home-run for the crowd.
Choose an artisanal baguette baked fresh that day. If you must buy it ahead, wrap it well and freeze it for up to a week. A crusty-type loaf works better with this recipe than a chewy loaf. The chewy ones don't toast as crisply and it's harder to break off dainty bites. I learned this the hard way.
If you can find a loaf made from whole grain bread, take bonus points for good nutrition! Some more tips… More

"They say I'm harboring a load of sugar. They accuse me of doing great harm. But it's not true!" Comice was distraught.

LDC wins Helsinki World Design Capital light art competition
30 November 2011 11.00 GMT
(Finland) - Architectural lighting design firm LDC (Lighting Design Collective) has been awarded a prize to realise a permanent urban light art piece in Helsinki, Finland - an official project for Helsinki World Design Capital 2012.
The art piece will convert a disused oil silo into a wondrous light display and a civic space. Public will gain access to the vast interior of the 36m diameter 17 metre tall steel silo which will be dark red inside. Sunlight will fill the space with dappled shadows creating a spectacular daytime space.
At night 1280 white LEDs flicker and sway on the surface of the silo controlled by a bespoke software mimicking swarms of birds in flight – a reference to the silo's seaside location. The prevailing winds, well known to those living in Helsinki, are used to trigger different light patterns in real time.
"The enduring fascination of the complex movement of light and the amazing location by the sea will make this a captivating experience for the visitors and the residents of Helsinki," says Tapio Rosenius, Director of LDC.
The scheme will be unveiled in October 2012 when the city is celebrating the World Design Capital year. The win crowns a buoyant year for the Madrid and London based LDC following major design commissions in Asia, Europe and Africa.

Smiths Detection is utilising deep learning and deploying it to create effective automated solutions to detect prohibited items. Deep learning is said to provide two key things: better object detection capabilities and reduced pressure on resources – allowing for improved efficiency. By Ross Falconer
As air transport stakeholders embrace digital transformation, deep learning is set to become an important feature of future product design. Deep learning involves 'teaching' a computer to recognise patterns based on examples. It's inspired by the structure and function of the human brain, which is made up of networked neurons. A neuron has multiple inputs (examples of what to identify) and a single output (an accurately detected object).
"Just like the human brain, the network must be trained," explains Geert Heilmann, Software Engineer, Smiths Detection. "The simplest form of training is to provide examples: you let the network process data for which the result is already known and the individual weighting factors are determined so that the desired result is obtained. Many examples are put through this process and during training the network learns automatically to identify, or classify, different patterns or properties."
Deep learning means Smiths Detection will be able to design products that will quickly and accurately detect objects within baggage and parcels.
Indeed, Smiths Detection now offers reliable and accurate lithium battery detection as an option on the HI-SCAN 100100V-2is and 100100T-2is scanners, with other conventional X-ray systems to follow. Existing installations can also be upgraded onsite. This is the first module from a series of smart and adaptable algorithms for the automatic detection of an ever-expanding list of dangerous, prohibited and contra-band goods and substances.
Taking the deep learning approach, Smiths Detection is collaborating with customers to build a huge library of images from which the algorithms can 'learn' to detect many other items. "The lithium battery development follows IATA's recommendations regarding Dangerous Goods and is aimed mainly at the air cargo sector," explains Matt Clark, VP Technology, Smiths Detection. "It is designed to tackle the tangible threat posed by lithium batteries, which have the potential to ignite when airborne. In addition to extending this option to a full range of systems, we plan to expand these augmented detection capabilities to goods such as weapons, flammable liquids, currency and drugs."
As it is particularly suitable for break-bulk cargo screening and is already popular with air freight handlers, the HI-SCAN 100100 series was first in line for the lithium battery option.
Better object detection, reduced pressure on resources
Deep learning will provide two key things: better object detection capabilities and reduced pressure on resources – allowing for improved efficiency. It will do this by more accurately identifying objects hidden within parcels or baggage, both by finding those objects that might otherwise be missed and reducing the number of false positives.
"Another advantage for the customer is that unlike a human operator, the software always performs at the same level and does not become fatigued," says Heilmann. "Initially, weapon-detection software would be used to support the operator."
With an appropriate amount of data available, the algorithms can also be easily adapted to customer-specific needs, for example the detection of agricultural items and food.
Heilmann adds that in combination with Smiths Detection's certified explosives detection algorithm and the deep learning algorithm for prohibited items the checkpoint can be highly automated. "Overall, deep learning will improve operations, customer experience and make infrastructure and people safer."

Life After BTOP: Philadelphia KEYSPOTs
Blog Post
May 24, 2012
It has been a year since the Freedom Rings Partnership (FRP) received $18.2 million in Broadband Technologies Opportunities Program (BTOP) federal stimulus funds to bring broadband opportunities to low-income Philadelphians. The Partnership's accomplishments are already extraordinary. FRP launched 76 Public Computing Centers and dozens of digital literacy trainings that provide Philadelphia residents with the tools they need to achieve their educational and professional goals. But as the program enters the second and final year of its grant, program leaders are considering how to sustain what they have managed to build.
The FRP, also known as the Philadelphia KEYSPOTS program, includes grassroots organizations, city government, and local universities. Together, they leverage their resources and expertise to bring Internet technology to Philadelphia in order to give all city residents equal opportunity to achieve their educational, employment, and community goals. One FRP partner, the Media Mobilizing Project, produced and edited a videoshowcasing the FRP's efforts to build KEYSPOTS, which are free and publicly accessible computer centers and digital literacy trainings in underserved neighborhoods.
"Digital literacy and computer access give individuals and communities the chance to learn skills critical to surviving in an information-based society," said Dr. Todd Wolfson, Assistant Professor of Journalism and Media Studies at Rutgers University, who researches FRP's impact on broadband adoption in Philadelphia. "This is the basis for KEYSPOTS—using new technologies to reimagine a Philadelphia where everyone has a chance to build their future, and play an active role in the life of the city."
And yet there is still more to be done. Data released by the FCC show that up to half of Philadelphia's inner-city residents don't have home access to the Internet, while many more struggle to get the support they need to become fully computer literate. That's why the City of Philadelphia's Office of Innovation and Technology (OIT) and the Urban Affairs Coalition are leading partnership-wide conversations with the FRP's nine managing organizations and the community anchor institutions hosting trainings (or PCCs) to consider how to sustain their work after the federal grant ends in June 2013.
This May, OIT and UAC hosted the second Sustainability Forum for partners. Partner organizations talked about how they applied for BTOP because they understand how technology amplifies their work around health, education, and employment. However, without financial resources to replace the federal grants, they fear that their organizations might be strained to keep the programs alive.
"When an effort like the computer centers comes and goes, it is really hard on the communities they have been a part of, and it makes it harder to build trust in the future" said Alix Webb, the Media Mobilizing Project's Computer Center Site Coordinator, during a small-group breakout session at the May forum. "As the Partnership thinks about long-term sustainability, we should keep in mind the expectations we've built and the need that is there for this service so it doesn't just disappear suddenly or is just on partners individually to maintain it on our own."
If these trainings and centers lose financial support, it is not just organizations that could be strained, but the future of Philadelphia. "If we imagine how Philadelphia should look in 2025 or 2050, we want to see a city with high rates of employment, a strong public education system, a 21st century economy and an engaged populace focused on the future of the city," Dr. Wolfson said. "This can only come to pass if we begin to prepare ourselves for 2050 today, by creating and sustaining programs and infrastructure that make sure all Philadelphians are prepared for tomorrow. Freedom Rings speaks to this problem and is one of the cornerstones of a digitally connected Philadelphia."
We can ensure the program's sustainability now. In addition to seeking foundation and private funding to continue these programs, the FCC could invest in current digital literacy programs in addition to new digital literacy programs with its Lifeline/Linkup program. Unfortunately, the FCC proposed to limit this funding to just Eligible Telecommunications Carriers (ETCs) and to communities without digital literacy trainings. But there's still time to contact the FCC on this issue by filing a comment online.

My mother & I share a mutual affection for Christmas music. As we drove to New York City this past weekend, I heard a beautiful but unfamiliar song by Frank Sinatra. Given the personal & national turmoil of 2016, his haunting lyrics struck me:
"In despair, I bowed my head. There is no peace on Earth – I said. For hate is strong and mocks the song of peace on earth, good will to men. Then, pealed the bells more loud and deep. God is not dead nor doth he sleep. The wrong shall fail, the right prevail with peace on earth, good will to men."
Many are weary right now. Yet, I believe we are called to be men and women for others if we keep heart. If you have the means, today is a good day to make a difference for those in need. Following the shopping sprint of CYBER MONDAY, today, Giving Tuesday involves giving donations to the organizations we care most deeply about. I will definitely be participating this year, and I encourage you to do the same.
In my Giving Tuesday POST last year, I mentioned three organizations that I donated to, in addition to why I picked these specifically. Here are my picks for 2016:
- There will never be a Giving Tuesday where I do not donate to BOSTON COLLEGE. I often am overwhelmed by the gratitude I have to my alma mater, as I received not just an education but a Jesuit education. BOSTON COLLEGE continues to encourage me to think every single day about how my actions affect the world.
- To me, it is more important than ever to remind our LGBTQ+ youth that IT DOES GET BETTER. My family & my community accepted me for who I am, and I give to support those who are not as fortunate. If you care about this vulnerable population, please consider DONATING.
- My biggest donation this year will be going to the AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY, in honor of too many people I love being affected by this terrible disease.
As a WISE WOMAN said not too long ago, "There are more seasons to come and there is more work to do." While the holiday season is the perfect time to seek to do good for our fellow woman and man, I am striving to remember that the ability to do good is not limited to a time of year.
Please let me know what organizations you are giving to today.

Revealed Resort Review
All Revealed Reviews by Hawaii Revealed
(808) 922-1340
2584 Lemon Rd, Waikiki
Visit website
This is a pretty friendly hostel on same block as a few other hostels that we did not review, and you may want to avoid. This place has a lot of aloha and is one block from the beach. It radiates from both the staff and guests.
The dorms sleep from four to up to 12 people. They do some very popular and economical tours starting at a buck for their sunrise hike to more money for SCUBA trips or North Shore tours. They also have free hula shows on site. There is a common area with tables, hammocks and a small TV. They have beach gear available—surf boards (for rent), boogie boards and snorkel gear. The lockers are free in the dorms (bring your own lock or buy one from them) and are moderately sized, but they will also store your luggage for free while you visit, go camping or even leave the island. We asked them the time limit on that, and they said, "a year!"—so go ahead and take that European excursion you've always wanted.
Pancake breakfasts are free here, made in their common kitchen, and coffee is also free in the lobby. Bed linens are provided, towels are $3, and they belong to you after that. They will even wash them for you during your stay. Some staff lives there as well. We checked out the photos on their website, and just keep in mind those were taken on the best day ever. This is a hostel, not the Ritz. Parking is $10 and limited.
Prices are $28–$39 for dorms, semi-private rooms (share bath with dorm) are $79, private studio (with kitchen and bath) is $116. There is a 14-day maximum stay and you must show travel itinerary with onward travel. Children (under 12) traveling with an adult must book a private room.

Members of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the IAEA, met on Wednesday to discuss Iran's recent nuclear developments.
The United States called the emergency session a day after Iran announced it had surpassed limits for enriched uranium set out in the 2015 nuclear deal.
"Nuclear extortion" is what the U.S. Ambassador to the IAEA, Jackie Wolcott, accused Tehran of doing by breaching the 2015 nuclear agreement in an effort to gain economic compensation for American sanctions.
Iran hit back, calling the U.S. "economic terrorists" for reimposing the crippling sanctions on the Islamic republic after Washington unilaterally withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action deal a year ago.
"The United States has not only withdrawn from the JCPOA and violated its own commitments but through political and economic pressure prevents international community, states and private entity to implement their commitments towards Iran," Kazem Gharib Abadi, Iranian IAEA Representative said.
Earlier this week, IAEA investigators confirmed that Iran had exceeded the 300 kilogram limit for stockpiles of low-enriched uranium and the 3.67% purity level included in the agreement.
Tehran rejects accusations by the U.S. that this is a breach to the nuclear accord.
The head of China's delegation told CGTN that Beijing does not view Iran's recent moves with concern.
"We should not overreact to the actions taken by Iran because in our view these actions do not incur any proliferation risks, and they do not contravene Iran's obligations under the forcipes safeguard agreement, and also all the actions they have taken are reversible," Fu Cong, director-general of Arms Control Department of the Chinese Foreign Ministry said.
Meanwhile, the E3 group, Germany, France and Britain, has been working hard on diplomacy with Iran in an attempt to keep the deal alive.
Iran wants Europe to do more to protect it from Washington's crippling sanctions.
The E3 countries have even designed a financial scheme known as The Instrument in Support of Trade Exchanges or INSTEX to skirt around the U.S. sanctions through a barter type system. The problem is that it's only operational for humanitarian goods, which aren't subject to sanctions, so it produced no real relief for Iran.
U.S. sanctions target Iran's main source of foreign revenue crude oil exports.
Tehran's latest moves are seen as an attempt to convince the remaining signatories of the JCPOA to provide more relief from those sanctions.
"Iran's actions fall in line of the remedial clauses incorporated in the JCPOA and are taken in order to restore the long lost balance of the implementation of the commitments under the deal," Kazem Gharib Abadi, Iranian IAEA Representative said..
Tensions have been mounting with fears this could escalate into all-out war.
Wednesday's closed-door IAEA meeting is not expected to bring about any consensus.
