About the work he performs this evening, Andrew writes: "I think that throughout this inspired piano concerto, Edvard Grieg is painting a portrait of his beloved homeland. Grieg's music describes Norway's fresh cold air, running waters, and beautiful snow-capped mountains. The piano's light trills and passagework represent the movement of frigid waters, while the grand chords represent the mountains and fjords. This concerto is also heavily influenced by Norwegian folklore, which involves elves, trolls, and dwarfs. We hear Norwegian folk tunes, or folk-inspired tunes. The music really makes me want to visit the country that Grieg is so proud of."

Aggies out to stop Blacks to stay in second spot
Ag College are determined to hold onto second spot when the host an in-form Griffith outfit at Beres Ellwood Oval on Saturday.
The Blacks haven't lost since tackling Aggies earlier in the season and made it six straight wins with a 53-26 win over leaders Waratahs last week.
Six points separate the two sides with four rounds left before finals.
Coming off a disappointing 16-8 loss to Wagga City, Ag College coach Will Mitchell is looking to turn things around quickly to keep a buffer on the chasing pack.
Something he believes is even more important with the shortened finals series.
"Winning this week will put a nice bit of distance between us and Griffith," Mitchell said.
"That is the main thing.
"(The second chance) is so important and this year being a three-week finals series I think it is probably more important.
"The five-week finals period hurts the side who comes first and gets that week off then potentially another week off to only play one game of footy in 27 days."
With university holidays taking its toll, training sessions had been few and far between for Aggies.
However Mitchell has been pleased with how the side responded at training on Tuesday before an important session, combined with a memorial for the anniversary of Andy Stanham's death on Thursday.
"We've been lacking a bit of direction lately as far as what we've been trying to achieve," he said.
"You've got to be able to position teams where you want them to pull the trigger, rather than saying we've done a few phases let's go wide.
"We've gone through that."
Ag College are also holding their ladies day function and Mitchell hopes the team can rise for what will be another big occasion.
"It's our ladies day as well so the boys will want to put last week out of our mind," he said.
"We've got a lot of respect for Griffith, they are obviously playing good football with six in a row and will be coming in really confident.
"No doubt our defence has to be on point with some big ball runners that they have but we also need to starve them of the ball and make sure we get our fair share of it."
It was something they failed to capitalise on against the Boiled Lollies last week, however Mitchell hasn't made any changes to the side.
With front rowers Duncan Woods and Gabe Brown still expected to be sidelined for some time, Aggies scrum has been a worry over the last month while Charles Callaghan is still away.
Griffith have been forced to make a couple of changes with Johnny Brown (shoulder) and Dan Bozic (knee) to miss the clash with Will Valeri is unavailable.

It claimed two linseed oil products branded Alligga and Hongjingyuan sold on its online store on JD.com were low fat, according to the Pudong New Area Administration for Market Regulation.
However, the nutrition labels of the two linseed oil showed they contained 93 grams of fat per 100 milliliters and 99.9 grams of fat per 100 grams, failing to meet the requirement and condition of low-fat content based on ChinaŌĆÖs relevant standard, the administration said.
Zuoting Youyuan, a beef hotpot chain restaurant in Shanghai, was fined 210,000 yuan by the market watchdog in Baoshan District for fake promotions. From the second half of 2017, the restaurant operator claimed its beef was freshly delivered and was original yellow cattle from Guizhou Province on its menu, soft decorations and radio advertisements, according to the Baoshan Administration for Market Regulation.
However, the restaurant operator started purchasing and serving three types of frozen beef from Canada and Shandong Province in June last year due to the short supply of the original beef. It did not change its menus or advertising.

It also used wordings such as ŌĆ£good effect in treating arthrolithiasis and diabetesŌĆØ and ŌĆ£curing premature ejaculationŌĆØ to promote its spray, the administration found.
However, both products were not registered as health products, or approved as medicine, the administration said.
Both Gome and the company violated ChinaŌĆÖs advertisement laws, the administration said.
In addition, the Jinshan outlet of supermarket chain Metro was fined 10,000 yuan by the Jinshan District market watchdog after eggs it sold were found to have excessive florfenicol for antibacterial purposes.

Quikkly Needs To Be A Higher QR Code
You've all used a QR code, proper? These bizarre-wanting barcodes you're alleged to scan utilizing a cellular to open a associated net hyperlink. Nope? I assumed not. For one cause or one other, the know-how, which was initially developed for the automotive business to trace elements in car manufacturing, has by no means actually gained crucial mass from a shopper viewpoint. Enter Quikkly, which thinks it's found out why.
The U.Okay. startup — whose founders are Ken Johnstone, former founder and CEO of INQ Cellular (the corporate that punted the primary so-referred to as 'Fb telephone'), and Fergal Walker, the ex-Head of Cellular BD for Fb EMEA — is one other try and bridge the bodily and digital worlds by way of your telephone's digital camera and accompanying cellular app to set off a web-based motion, however in a means that solves most of the ache factors of QR codes.
Utilizing the Quikkly iOS or Android app, you scan what the corporate is looking an Motion Tag — its personal proprietary barcode-esque tech — and this instantly invokes an internet motion, comparable to listening to a monitor on Spotify, including a contact to your handle ebook, following somebody on Twitter, and even connecting to a public WiFi spot.
The intelligent facet of a Quikkly Motion Tag is that, in contrast to most makes use of of QR codes, it's higher signal-posted so you understand what motion to anticipate, and the barcode itself is in-half based mostly on picture recognition of the associated service's icon, which means it's much more human-readable as nicely a being machine-readable.
"If you see fascinating stuff on-line and there's a button to work together with it, you'll be able to click on on it and one thing occurs instantly. 'Like' on Fb, 'Comply with' on Twitter, add to Basket, take heed to the track. Within the bodily world, it's significantly harder," says Quikkly CEO Fergal Walker. "In case you're , you would need to manually seek for the merchandise, hope you discover the fitting one, and hope it really works in your cellular. Quikkly removes the effort and makes it so simple as it's on-line."
Quikkly additionally makes it fairly straightforward for anybody to create their very own Motion Tags, to be included on, for instance, a enterprise card, flyer or poster. This may be accomplished by way of the web site or cellular app. In reality, Quikkly is speaking up its cellular-first play. To create an Motion Tag, you merely choose from a grid of pre-outlined actions and fill within the wanted particulars, comparable to URL and customized message.
On Quikkly's rivals, Walker concedes there are "a great deal of QR based mostly corporations and picture recognition corporations on the market", however argues that the startup is doing one thing fairly totally different. "Individuals know precisely what is going to occur earlier than they scan a Quikkly Tag. Once they scan it occurs right away. It's identical to urgent a button," he says.
One apparent disadvantage of Quikkly — and just like the shortcomings of Beacon know-how, which additionally tries to bridge the bodily and on-line worlds — is that customers are required to have an accompanying app. On this case, one that may scan and interpret an Motion Tag. The plan, nevertheless, is to let third-celebration app builders additionally get in on the motion.
"You want the Quikkly app to create your personal Tags on cellular, however for scanning you should use any Quikkly enabled app (the scanner is out there to associate app builders)," explains Walker. "Additionally, Quikky Tags make it clear which app individuals want to make use of. Keep in mind, the typical shopper doesn't know that 'QR Codes' are referred to as 'QR Codes' in order that they don't even know the place to start out. Quikkly actually is 'do that to get that now'."
Quikkly is free to make use of, each scanning and creating Motion Tags. Nevertheless, a paid-for model of the service, with issues like further analytics, shall be obtainable to manufacturers and businesses via a subscription mannequin.

An Urban Farm in Fresno Seeks Investment and Engagement with Local African-American Youth
It's about both harvesting produce and good work skills.

New Light for New Life Church of God in West Fresno established a small, but bountiful garden for a few dozen of its children and adult mentors to maintain.

Few TV renditions of King Tut's rise to power have ever been showcased. One of the most celebrated and renowned leaders in history, he was only a child when he rose to power and left his mark on Egypt. Tut's world was a cataclysmic clash of backstabbing, war, love, and all the pains of adolescence—all of which makes for one hell of a series. Tut (2015) is a three-part miniseries on Spike that follows the youngest ever Egyptian king (played by Avan Jogia) through his trials and tribulations when Egypt was the most advanced civilization in the world.
King Tut is the only one having fun in this scandalous series. Peter Gadiot bares his buns as he gets down and dirty with a lucky lady, while they both spend quite a bit of time sword fighting sans shirt. Is it just us, or are we in the wrong century?

The market players are aware that the direction of the technology sectors decides the movements of the broader markets. It can be said that yesterday's robust movement in the technology sector primarily aided the broader markets. On November 26, 2018, Dow Jones Industrial Average ended the session at 24,640.24 which implies a rise of 354.29 points or 1.46%. On the same day, Amazon Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN) witnessed a strong surge of 5.28%. Other tech giants like Facebook (NASDAQ: FB), Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL), Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) and Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ: GOOGL) ended the session by witnessing the rise of 3.53%, 1.35%, 1.01%, and 2.51%, respectively. No so long ago, the technology sector witnessed the negative impacts. However, the market players would be eagerly waiting for the meeting which would take place between the US and China as any settlement would ease the tension prevailing in the investors' minds. Additionally, the settlement is likely to positively impact the technology sector, and if the technology giants witnessed robust momentum, the broader markets are likely to follow them. The global disturbances like the trade wars can severely impact the performance of the global markets and can also hamper consumer confidence.
What Has been Weighing on the Oil Prices
The weakness in the oil prices is still visible which could further impact the investors' behaviour as well as confidence. The negative momentum with respect to financial markets raises the worries related to the economic slowdown which could slow down the demand prospects of the oil. Therefore, the participants in the oil markets are presently worried about the situation of the oversupply. However, after the OPEC meeting, there is a high probability that the oil prices might stabilize because it is expected that the discussions in the meeting would primarily focus on cutting down the levels of production. However, emerging markets or EMs like India, tend to benefit with the fall in the oil prices because of its dependency on oil consumption. When there were worries that the oil prices might witness strong uptrend, the Indian economy was witnessing the negative impacts. However, it would not be wrong to say that the oil prices are expected to remain sensitive to the outcome of the meeting between the United States and China.
Australian Markets Ended on Strong Note
The Australian markets ended on the positive note as S&P/ASX200 settles as 5728.3 which implies the rise of 56.7 points or 1%. Afterpay Touch Group Limited (ASX: APT) and Seven West Media Limited (ASX: SWM) ended the session on November 27, 2018 by witnessing a rise of 8.626% and 7.407%, respectively. Talking about the stocks which witnessed the decline, Syrah Resources Limited (ASX: SYR) and Resolute Mining Limited (ASX: RSG) ended the session by witnessing a decline of 5.621% and 3.125%, respectively.

TMRA 2008 - Subject-centric Computing
– 2008-10-17
Mediencampus, Leipzig, Germany
As Peter Brown emphasised in his closing keynote in 2007, traditional information organization is focused on documents, folders, and files, which are all 18th century terms. Topic Maps, on the other hand, are subject-centric, in the sense that they organize information by what it is about. Users, however, typically think and act in a subject-centric way. They don't look for certain document or folder, but for information about a particular subject that they are interested in. Shifting the information architecture to a subject-centric perspective, means changing the way software and interfaces are designed. Subject-centric computing is based on the appropriate handling of subject identity, wich is the mechanism for deciding whether or not two different objects represent the same subject. Identity-aware subject-centric computing empowers a new level of interactivity between systems at global scale. The goal of TMRA 2008 is nothing less than the break-through of subject-centric computing.

Bank Windhoek supports EAN
WINDHOEK - Bank Windhoek will again support the Economic Association of Namibia (EAN) with the maintenance and development of its institutional capacity to effectively manage its current and future projects.
"Most funding received by the EAN is directed towards specific projects, while little funding is available for institutional support to administer these activities. Despite the lean cost structure of the association, we face continuous challenges with regards to operational expenses. It is against this background that EAN approached Bank Windhoek for assistance," said EAN's Chairperson Rowland Brown.
Bank Windhoek's support will be spent on core functions that are vital for the EAN to run productively but are not covered by event and activity funding. This includes but not limited to: office rental and administration, statutory costs and skills development.
"Bank Windhoek has supported EAN since its inception and has been the largest contributor to date. It is great to see that a wholly-owned Namibian financial institution believes in what we do. This sponsorship will in the end help to develop and fine tune local discourse on critical socioeconomic topics, ultimately in an effort to promote economic development and improve the lives of Namibian people," said Brown.
The EAN is a Namibian not-for-profit Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), which has a number of objectives, from policy input and development, to public awareness and education, to academic research and mentoring.
The EAN has played an important role in bringing together public, quasi-public and private sector players to discuss issues of critical importance for the Namibian economy and the Namibian people, as well as playing a key role in policy development in Namibia over the past five years.
"We believe in the work of EAN since its inception and consider them as partners in contributing to Namibia's economic development. This is one of the ways in which Bank Windhoek contributes to the communities in which we operate," said Bank Windhoek's Head of Corporate Affairs Hayley Allen.

WHEN HE STEPS DOWN as chief executive officer of the American Chemistry Council later this year, Jack N. Gerard will leave a trade association that has more money and many more members than when he joined but that is stumbling in its bid to boost its reputation with the public.
The announcement that Gerard will leave after a little more than three years on the job was the surprise news at ACC's annual meeting, held a week and a half ago in Palm Desert, Calif. He will depart in September to take over the helm of the American Petroleum Institute (C&EN, June 9, page 12).
The former head of the National Mining Association, Gerard joined ACC at a difficult time for group, the U.S. chemical industry's main trade association. It was reeling from the forced resignation of its previous leader and the loss of several major chemical companies from its ranks. Gerard quickly cut back staff and refocused the association on just a few key issues such as plant security, energy, and rail transport. He then set out to win back members.
At the annual meeting, company executives were effusive in their praise for Gerard and the turnaround he led. Robert L. Wood, CEO of the specialty chemical producer Chemtura and current chairman of the ACC board, told reporters at a press conference that "we are disappointed to lose him" but that, given his track record, "he's a man in demand."
Members credit Gerard for returning the association's budget to the black and for recruiting 33 new members, including several companies that had left.
Yet ACC's attempt to improve its standing with the public seems to have stalled, despite its expensive image-enhancement program called essential2. The association spent on the order of $20 million in each of the past three years on television advertising and other efforts to inform the public about the benefits of the industry.
At last year's annual meeting, association executives reported that 49.8% of "informed Americans" had a favorable impression of the chemical industry, up from about 49.0% in 2006 and 46.8% in 2005. At this year's press conference, though, Wood acknowledged that the group's most recent poll found a decline in the public's view of the industry.
According to ACC staffers, bad publicity over phthalate plasticizers and the polymer raw material bisphenol A (BPA) is the main reason for the decline. Recent claims that children are in danger from trace amounts of BPA that leach out of polycarbonate baby bottles and epoxy can liners spurred a round of negative news articles and announcements by major retailers that they would stop selling baby products containing BPA.
ACC's official response was that BPA is safe when used to make plastics. It noted that food and health authorities in the U.S., Europe, and Japan have all come to the same conclusion.
AT THE MEETING, some ACC staffers said privately that they would have liked to have seen the association take a more conciliatory approach—perhaps by declaring BPA safe but also announcing an effort to work with customers to remove it from certain products out of deference to consumer fears.
At the press conference, however, ACC leaders defended the association's approach. "There are fundamental principles that underlie the industry, including science, research, and risk," Gerard said. "BPA is a case study, but those broader principles apply across the franchise of chemistry." Wood added that capitulation on BPA would allow the industry's opponents to move "on to the next product."
That is not to say the leaders were satisfied with their reaction. J. Brian Ferguson, CEO of Eastman Chemical and the newest ACC board officer, said the industry must learn to communicate better. "We should have been more active more quickly," he said about the response on BPA. "The lesson is we have a lot of data about our products, but we are traditionally an organization of scientists and engineers who don't make our living by communication."
Wood told reporters that the association decided at the annual meeting to form a committee of five to seven CEOs who, supported by ACC staff and outside resources, would try to anticipate issues that might dog the industry in the future. He expects the committee to report its findings at ACC's October board meeting.
As for essential2's advertising campaign, Wood said he personally thinks it remains important, despite its failure to keep raising public opinion. "When we approved essential2 in 2005, we said we'd look at it again in three years ," he said. Although no decisions have been made, he anticipates that in the future "the campaign is likely to have more facets than it has today and more ways of measuring effectiveness."
Wood noted that the industry's opponents don't typically use television as the vehicle for their attacks. "Part of essential2 will remain advertising," he said, "but how do we use blogs and grass roots—the same vehicles our opponents use?"
Of course, Gerard won't be there to help answer such questions. Wood reported that a CEO search committee has been formed and will soon begin interviewing candidates. Wood said he hopes to have a replacement on board before Gerard leaves on Sept. 1.

Queensland Minister for Agricultural Industry Development Mark Furner
Farmers Reminded To Vaccinate To Prevent Livestock Deaths
Victor P Taffa
Graziers in Southern Queensland are urged to vaccinate their livestock against anthrax to prevent unnecessary cattle and sheep deaths.
Minister for Agricultural Industry Development Mark Furner said there had been a recent anthrax case near St. George, which resulted in a small number of cattle deaths.
"Our officers moved quickly to contain the disease on that individual property by immediately restricting all movement of livestock on and off that location." Minister Furner said.
"Owners undertook vaccination of all remaining cattle to minimise the risk of further spread."
"Rapid action of staff is testament to the Palaszczuk Government's ongoing commitment to biosecurity in Queensland." Minister Furner said.
"Ensuring our primary production remains a world leader in food safety is one of the top priorities of this government."
Biosecurity Queensland's Chief Veterinary Officer Allison Crook said the investigation of this case had now been completed and the property was no longer under movement restrictions.
"This incident indicates that anthrax spores may be present in and around the St. George district and livestock grazing locally may be at risk of infection." Dr. Crook said.
"Graziers should have a biosecurity plan in place and consult with their local veterinary practitioner to decide what specific measures they should take to protect their livestock and property against anthrax."
"This can include keeping livestock away from soil disturbances caused by earthworks or flooding, and undertaking preventative vaccination." Dr. Crook said.
"Producers should always be monitoring the health of their stock and immediately seek veterinary advice in the event of sudden deaths. Unexplained deaths of animals should be reported to Biosecurity Queensland on 13 25 23."
Anthrax is a naturally occurring bacterial disease which impacts animals.
It is most common in New South Wales and Victoria.

Whether it's your local grocery store or Amazon Prime, on-demand food deliveries are on the rise. That's why electric delivery vehicle maker Chanje has partnered with refrigeration unit supplier Thermo King on a prototype zero-emissions refrigerated van.
The vehicle will debut at this week's Advanced Clean Transportation Expo in Long Beach, Calif.
"The global refrigerated vehicle market is expected to reach $16.5 billion by 2022," said Ian Televik, director of marketing for Chanje, based in Los Angeles. "In the U.S., we are seeing increasing demand for medium-duty, last-mile refrigerated solutions due to a steady increase in consumers doing their shopping online and expecting fast home deliveries."
The demonstration vehicle is a version of the Chanje V8100 all-electric, medium-duty panel van. It's outfitted with a Thermo King V-520RT refrigeration unit and Thermo Lite solar panels on the roof that help maintain the van's electric range.
The refrigerated box is 400 cubic feet and is designed to stay cool in ambient conditions exceeding 100 degrees for a 10-hour delivery cycle that includes door openings, drive time and delivery stops, according to Steve Hubbard, engineering leader for Thermo King, based in Minneapolis, Minn.
Without the refrigerated unit, the Chanje V8100 is capable of traveling 120 to 150 miles per charge. "We expect to take 5 to 10 percent of that available energy for our refrigerated use," Hubbard said, "so it's still well over 100 miles of range."
To help offset the load from the refrigerated system and maximize the vehicle's range, 400 watts of Thermo Lite solar panels are installed on its roof.
Thermo King has made one demonstration vehicle for the U.S. and two for Europe. It plans to test them with current and prospective customers.
"Most customers want to experiment with electrification for their sustainability initiatives and also for the purpose of improved maintenance costs and total operating costs," Hubbard said, "but they don't know what they need yet. They're not sure whether or not 100 miles of range before recharge will suffice for their needs, so that's the basis for this demo unit – to be able to put it into operation with customers and have them give us feedback."
The Thermo King/Chanje electric refrigerated delivery van could be commercially available within two or three years, Hubbard said.
