In (Huang et al. 2003), various issues and challenges in web-based systems development and maintenance are described, especially in the public domain. Evolvable web-based system architecture is introduced for management systems, and some designs and implementation tradeoffs are discussed as well. (Stroulia et al. 2000) suggest applying conventional reverse engineering techniques, such as code analysis and clone detection, to reduce duplicated content and to maintain web-based systems. The developed system includes the HTML parser and analysers that separate content from layout by integrating into HTML pages scripts for retrieving the dynamic data from special database.
In (Tonella et al. 2003), the researchers propose a cluster method, which is based on the automatic extraction by the keywords in web pages. Lixto (Estievenart et al. 2003) is a wrapper generation tool that is well suitable for building HTML/XML wrappers. (Moreira et al. 2001) propose an approach to integrating WWW information, which is based on the development of a canonical domain model in XML and the wrapping of existing WWW applications with wrappers capable of communicating about entities in this common model with the applications and with an intermediary mediator.

The article is available in Polish on Przegląd's website (behind a paywall), loosely based on an article I previously published in English on the blog.

Colourful nonsense: what does your data visualisation actually say?
The democratisation of data visualisation tools brought us two major advancements: we can make great analytical products, faster. We can deceive easier, too.
Previously a domain ruled by statisticians and IT departments, analytics have now opened up to anyone with a laptop. For marketers and managers alone, BI apps such as Tableau, QlikView, or MS Excel have become a commodity. Tools have matured too: programming fluency was overruled by drag-and-drop interfaces. A visually stunning chart is literally a click away. The software intelligently picks the graph type and the colour scheme for us. For the more ambitious users the adjustment options are plenty, although within the range of pre-programmed configurations. While some of these visual endeavours lead to great analytical products, some result in colourful nonsense.

Harmful statistics: John Oliver on forensic science
John Oliver goes John Oliver on forensic science and it's a must watch. Forensic science brought statistics to courts, but itself it's only rarely exposed to scientific scrutiny. Justice system's failure to question forensics methodology and common fear of scientific jargon has led to convicting innocent people for crimes they haven't commited. Courts have given life sentences solely based on bite marks, partial fingerprints, and hair collected at crime scene despite of no proof these methods are infallible.
Watch John Oliver's Last Week Tonight episode below and make sure to read the excellent investigative article by Jordan Smith on the Intercept that the show was based on.

Frankliniella occidentalis, Thrips
Frankliniella occidentalis, the western flower thrips, is a key pest of glasshouses, greenhouses and polytunnels.
Thrips can be difficult for growers to detect due to their small size and tendency for hiding within the concealed parts of the plant. Symptoms of plant damage by thrips include: bud deformation, shape distortion of fruits or vegetables during growth and a range of leaf spots and scars from thrips feeding. The larvae feed throughout the plant and leave the crop susceptible to secondary fungal and bacterial infection resulting in moulding and wilting.
Despite the small size of thrips at ~1mm in length the repercussions of Thrips infestations can be huge.
Thrips have six main life stages which includes the egg, two larval, prepupal, pupal and adult stages. Eggs are laid on the underside of leaves, flower structures or fruit. In some cases this can result in wart-like growths but in others it is undetectable.
Larvae mature through two instars in concealed and well-protected plant parts such as within flower petals or under the calyx of fruits. In heavy infestations the larval will become mobile as they attempt to nourish upon all parts of the plant that are above ground. Most thrips, including western flower thrips, fall to the ground in order to pupate.
Finally, the adult thrips will emerge with slender and fringed wings in order to take flight and seek a partner for reproduction.
Application Guidelines
The following notes are guidelines of general nature and meant to give the user a head start in implementing a Frankliniella occidentalis, Thrips monitoring program. Local conditions and practices can vary and can require customisation.
Recent Literature
Sampson, C. & Kirk, W. D. J. (2013) Can Mass Trapping Reduce Thrips Damage and Is It Economically Viable? Management of the Western Flower Thrips in Strawberry. PLOS One (2013)
The western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis is a cosmopolitan, polyphagous insect pest that causes bronzing to fruit of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa). The main aim of this study was to test whether mass trapping could reduce damage and to predict whether this approach would be economically viable. In semi-protected strawberry crops, mass trapping of F. occidentalis using blue sticky roller traps reduced adult thrips numbers per flower by 61% and fruit bronzing by 55%. The addition of the F. occidentalis aggregation pheromone, neryl (S)-2-methylbutanoate, to the traps doubled the trap catch, reduced adult thrips numbers per flower by 73% and fruit bronzing by 68%. Damage that would result in downgrading of fruit to a cheaper price occurred when bronzing affected about 10% of the red fruit surface. The addition of blue sticky roller traps to an integrated pest management programme maintained thrips numbers below the damage threshold and increased grower returns by a conservative estimate of £2.2k per hectare.Read more
Sampson, C. & Kirk, W. D. J. (2012) Flower stage and position affect population estimates of the western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande), in strawberry. Acta Phytopathologica, 2012.
An accurate estimate of a population is essential for pest management. For Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) in strawberry, counts of thrips in flowers are commonly used as there is a strong correlation between thrips number per flower and fruit damage. The aim of this study was to look at the abundance and population structure of thrips within different flower stages and positions on the plant to test whether these affect population estimates. Adult females were found in open buds (petals showing), but were most frequent in young and mature flowers, whereas adult males were not found in buds and were most frequent in mature and senescent flowers. Twice as many adult thrips were found in mature flowers at the top of the plant compared to those at the side. Only larvae were found in closed buds (no petals showing). Larval numbers increased gradually with flower stage and peaked in senescent flowers. The choice of flower stage and position for sampling could affect population estimates by as much as a factor of four.Read more

Ghosts stalk the halls and concourses of the Air Canada Center.
Their names, slogans and statistics resonate: Dion Phaneuf, Phil Kessel, Randy Carlyle, Dave Nonis, Brian Burke … Three-Year Plans, Five-Year Plans … The Passion That Unites Us All, Burn the Boats … False starts, regular resets … Waffle Gate, Salute Gate … Improbable Series Defeat.
It has been a long 13-plus years for a club that has only once tasted the spoils of a playoff berth when in 2013 they coughed up an unbelievable 4-1 – game seven lead versus the higher seeded, veteran-laden Boston Bruins.
As crushing as the defeat was to a franchise and fan base bursting at the seams to become relevant once again in the NHL landscape, the series loss to Boston presented an opportunity for change. Not the kind of change offered by general manager Brian Burke in 2008, when he took over the reins and proceeded to trade high-end draft picks for "win now" players; rebuild on the fly becoming his early mantra.
No, after their 2013 playoff debacle, the Toronto Maple Leafs looked to make systemic organizational changes; the kinds of changes that at the time left many scratching their collective heads in wonder.
Insert Tim Lieweke.
Leiweke became President and CEO of MLSE on April 26, 2013. Despite arriving at the "center of the hockey universe" as a relative unknown to most fans, one of the new bosses first and most important press conferences offered a glimpse into what was on its way.
He spoke of the word culture, and how it was about to change for all of MLSE's sports properties. From the Maple Leafs, to the NBA's Toronto Raptors right down to the MLS's Toronto FC; they would all become elite, world-class organizations. The talk at the time was that maybe, just maybe the Maple Leafs might actually "do it right".
Do it right. It's always been a thought that Toronto as a hockey market would never stand for a true, tear it down – build from the bottom rebuild similar to what the Los Angeles Kings and Chicago Blackhawks did before they became NHL super-powers.
Brian Burke capitulated on the process and left the organization in a wayward mess. So why would things be any different, especially when it was announced that Brendan Shanahan – he of zero NHL front office experience – was now being brought in to "run the show".
As the 2014 season kicked off and the Maple Leafs were off to an impressive start with a 21-16-3-0 record, it came as a complete shock when Coach Randy Carlyle was replaced by Peter Horachek who proceeded to lead the Buds to an exceptionally awful 9-28-0-5 record and a seventh place finish in the Atlantic Division. Only the Buffalo Sabres were worse.
Things didn't look promising in the Big Smoke. Was the hurting fan base offered another pipedream? Were they offered false hope that fateful spring day in April? It sure looked like it.
That is until arguably one of the greatest coaches of all time was brought in to lead the charge.
With Shanahan further insulating his front office with the brightest hockey minds from the likes of salary cap specialist and analytics "wonder-kid" Kyle Dubas to a future Hall of Famer in Lou Lamoriello, the final piece of the puzzle was signing Mike Babcock to become the club's 39th and likely most anticipated and most sought after head coach.
Unlike those before them, Shanahan and Babcock specifically were honest in letting everyone know that there "would be pain". For all intents and purposes, the process would be followed and adhered to. A plan was in place from the top to the bottom. From the CEO, to the President, to the GM, to the Coach, all parties would be "pulling the rope in the same direction".
Management may have accomplished what they wanted, but from a fan perspective the 2015-2016 season was rock bottom. With a 29-42-11 record, and a last place finish, it's hard to imagine things could work out, but luck would be on their side. The kind of luck that looks to have changed the franchise once and for all.
With winning the NHL's draft lottery, the Maple Leafs were gifted the opportunity to draft – as we now know – the franchise's most decorated rookie in Auston Matthews. As the scoring records continued to fall, and a Calder Trophy for the league's top rookie an almost certainty, some will look to Matthews as the savior of the team. Others will give credit to Babcock or Shanahan.
The one person that doesn't seem to get enough credit is that of Tim Lieweke. Although leaving Southern Ontario rather unceremoniously in June of 2015, Lieweke did as he said he would do. The culture for all of MLSE's sports properties has been changed, and changed for the better.
The man responsible for bringing in the likes of Toronto Raptors President Masai Ujiri who has turned the fledgling franchise into one of the NBA's best teams to being an integral part in TFC signing Michael Bradley, Sebastian Giovinco, and making a "bloody big deal" with the eventual arrival of Jermaine Defoe, Tim Lieweke looks to have altered the Toronto sports landscape forever.

Ambulansya sa Mindoro, ginamit ng driver sa family outing nung nakaraang Holy Week

Sablayan Mayor Eduardo Gadiano on Sunday confirmed with GMA News that the ambulance with plate number SKT 741 and the words "LGU-Sablayan" on its side is the property of the Sablayan local government.
Gadiano also said that the driver is assigned to the northern part of the town. He added that he will not disregard the issue.
"Kailangang bigyan ng disciplinary action 'yung driver dahil mali 'yung ginawa niya. Tatlo lang pinagpipilian ko sa kanya: suspension, termination, o mag-resign siya, kasi mali ang ginawa niya," he told GMA News in a phone interview. — BM, GMA News

He also didn't forget to tell me that the big pile of burnt rubble and timber on the corner opposite the three stones used to be the general store and had only recently been razed to the ground under very suspicious circumstances. It was also rumoured there was $10,000 of jewels lost in the ashes. Small town talk is still alive and kicking.
Other than the pub the rest of these Pongaroa buildings were empty. The grand concrete entrance is to some long forgotten park.
Our next stop is Masterton 90kms away, to fuel up and buy a few groceries before we head to our next beach Castlepoint. There are no fuel pumps in Pongaroa and we haven't seen many since leaving Napier. When David asks the rural postie, who is checking his phone beside the dump station, he tells David a local farmer will happily 'see you right' if you're in a jam. We'll be fine, but what a friendly bunch of people we're meeting on our travels.

Gerry Adams has accused the SDLP of a "monumental blunder" in spurning a nationalist general election pact.
The Sinn Féin president claimed the SDLP had facilitated the unionist voting alliance in four Westminster constituencies in the North.
The rival nationalist party has said it will not enter a nakedly sectarian arrangement.
Mr Adams said: "The recently announced unionist electoral pact for the Westminster election is a negative alliance.
"It is aimed at preventing equality of citizenship, frustrating political progress and imposing a Tory austerity agenda.
"Unfortunately, the SDLP leadership has actively facilitated this by refusing to talk to Sinn Fein about how to counter the threat to pro-Agreement, progressive politics."
The DUP and UUP agreed candidates to fight East Belfast, North Belfast, Newry and Armagh and Fermanagh and South Tyrone.
DUP leader Peter Robinson said he wanted to ensure a strong unionist voice in what is likely to be a hung parliament.
Sinn Féin proposed a nationalist deal in response.
Mr Adams said: "It is a monumental strategic blunder by (SDLP leader) Alasdair McDonnell to spurn engagement with Martin McGuinness on this crucial issue.
"His elevation of petty self-interest above the wider needs of society and the future of the political process is a failure of political leadership."

Maintain your hair throughout the upcoming festivities.
With Christmas around the corner, we're going to want our hair looking its best. However, along with the seasons changing, so does our hair. It is more susceptible to lose moisture during the winter months, causing it to be more prone to breakages. So let's talk about how to weatherproof our hair and maintain luscious locks this winter.
1. Turn the temperature down
Despite this being the exact opposite of what our brains tell us to do during the winter months, it's within our hairs benefit that we do. Turning down the temperature in the house will ensure that the change in temperature between you leaving the house and returning will 'shock' your hair less. Switching between hot and cold can irritate both your scalp and your skin.
2. Turn the temperature down: in the shower
There is no better way than to reward yourself with a relaxing hot shower after a long day at work. The hot water dehydrates your hair and lessens its moisture. Bathing in warm water is the more beneficial option.
3. Condition your hair
You may have guessed by now that the winter can strip your hair of its moisture. Therefore we need to put that moisture back in. Regularly using conditioning treatments is a great way to maintain and replace your hairs moisture. Nurse your hair with a conditioning treatment once a week, and leave on for up to 30 minutes to make sure the conditioner diffuses into your hair shaft. Bamford Botanic Conditioner is infused with Brazilian honey to retain its moisture.
4. Don't go outside with damp hair
Unlike during the summer months where we may use the sun as 'natures hairdryer' and naturally air dry our hair. Our hair doesn't respond in the same way during the winter. Whether you have curly, straight, silky or coarse hair, your hair is more likely to break if you leave the house with damp hair in the winter. The reason for this is due to the water molecules in your hair solidifying and expanding, causing your hair strand, in essence, to freeze and snap.
5. Wear a hat
Other than being a great winter accessory, a hat functions to help maintain body heat as research suggests that up to 50% of body heat can be lost if your head remains uncovered. Choosing a hat with a silk/satin lining is beneficial for your hair. The reason being that although wool and cotton hats feel soft, they are actually quite coarse on our hair, in turn, this can cause split ends and breakage. When it comes to curls, a hat could quite literally be a hair saver. Curly hair is more vulnerable in the winter and is more likely to break. Applying an oil-based serum to your curls and then wearing a hat will increase its protection. Leonor Greyl Serum de Soie Sublimateur works to protect and nourish your hair without weighing it down.

A risk factor is something that raises your chances of getting a health problem. You can have multiple myeloma (MM) with or without those listed below. The more you have, the greater your chances of getting it. Ask your doctor what you can to do lower your risk.
MM is most common in people aged 65 years and older. It is rare in people under 40 years old. It also tends to run in families. But, you can still have the disease without a family history.
The risk for getting MM is also higher for people who:
- Work with harmful chemicals—Mainly with jobs in petroleum or farming.
- Are Black—Rates of MM are about 2 times higher in Black people than in White people.
- Have certain health conditions such as:
- Prior MM
- Monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS)—Too many abnormal proteins are made by plasma cells in the bone marrow.
- Obesity—Being overweight is linked to a higher risk of MGUS. Risk is compounded as weight increases.
- Amyloidosis—Abnormal proteins build up in the body's organs. This keeps them from working as they should. Amyloidosis is not common, but it is linked to MM.
- Are exposed to radiation—from a nuclear bomb fallout or x-rays—not common

Asia's Super Rich Advised to Add More Gold to Portfolios
Gold has been hammered lately, and some advisers are telling their wealthy clients to take advantage of lower prices and add to their stockpile to protect assets against pounding equity markets.
Advisers to Asia's super rich think their clients should put more of their money into gold, taking advantage of price declines to buy the precious Yellow metal amid volatile global markets and US-China trade tensions, a new report said.
Most advisers in the survey (62%) said their clients should or maybe should increase their weighting in gold, Vs 38% who said they should not. The survey was of 174 private banks, family offices, wealth management advisers and other market experts in Asia.
"Not only does Asia, and especially Singapore, offer a remarkably complete and professional gold market infrastructure, but the current global economic, financial and geopolitical factors could be considered as highly supportive of the rationale to hold and grow the portions of gold in any [high net worth] portfolio," said the head of precious metals Asia at INTL FCStone
The number of ultra-wealthy in China has grown, with those holding at least 10-M RMB Yuan ($1.5-M) in investible assets booming from 180,000 individuals in Y 2006 to nearly 1.6-M in Y 2016, according to "China Private Wealth Report" by Bain & Company and China Merchants Bank.
Gold has sold off over the past few months as USD interest rates have increased, so there is more opportunity to buy. For clients who do not have an allocation of gold in their portfolios, now is the time to add gold.
Spot gold prices are way off the highs seen in Y 2011, when the precious Yellow metal was trading above 1,820 0z in August, after an impressive climb from early November of 2008, when it was selling for under $750 oz.
It was most recently trading at $1,194.38 oz, on a downward path from $1,347.20 oz in April and essentially at the mark seen in December 2009. It is down more than 8% YTD, in part due to the strength of the USD, which traders are seizing as a safe haven amid the US-China trade dispute.
In February, Hong Kong's gold exchange announced it was in talks with Singapore, Myanmar and Dubai to establish a gold commodity corridor to promote yuan-denominated products under the mainland's "Belt and Road Initiative". It could connect a proposed warehouse in the Qianhai free-trade zone, capable of storing 1,500 tonnes of gold, with commercial users and traders in countries along the belt and road's trade routes.
According to INTL FCStone, 50% of Asian clients choose to store gold in Singapore and 35% in Hong Kong
Have a terrific week.

Who : Jackfruit
When : Saturday, Oct. 2, 9 p.m.
Where : Ocean Port Hotel, Squamish
Cost : $10 in advance at Random and Trinity Romance, $12 at the door
Chris Berry is no stranger to the Sea to Sky music scene. Any old school bums will probably have a vague recollection of his shows with Slow Nerve Action: they usually involved over-the-top antics and some seriously overt sexualization on stage. But it's been quite a while since Berry and his crew rolled into town.
"Ian (Lamont) and I... actually started a band called Slow Nerve Action in Whistler."
Berry called Whistler home from 1999 to about 2002 and played with Slow Nerve Action for almost five years, touring across Canada with their rowdy show.
"It was coined a porn funk band," he laughed. "It was awesome!"
'Nuff said.
And where did they play most of their gigs?
"Mainly at the greatest spot on the planet: The Boot. But it's gone, and I really haven't been up there since," he said, chuckling. "I've been boycotting! I want to play right in the middle of the parking lot!"
The days of Slow Nerve Action came to an end in the early 2000s, with a new band, Jackfruit, born in its wake.
During their travels with Slow Nerve Action, Berry and keyboardist Ian Lamont crossed paths with bass player Stephane Fortin, who was playing with a three-piece electro jazz funk band called Blue Quarter.
"So Jackfruit was mainly just like an all-star band that we just were messin' around with for fun at the beginning, and then at the same time, Blue Quarter and Slow Nerve Action kind of ended and we continued that with Jackfruit."
The Jackfruit project organically evolved into a full-fledged group of its own, though Berry readily admits that it's been a struggle to find the right fit for a drummer (they're onto their fifth one now).
"Sean's the man! He's our homie," Berry said, sounding a bit relieved.
The band members - Berry on vocals, Fortin, Lamont and Sean Scallion on drums - hail, originally, from all over Canada, but today, they all live in Vancouver.
Their grand plan was pretty simple: "Really, it was just to keep playing our asses off and make great music and keep going and keep going! It's what we love to do, it's the only thing that keeps us working day jobs, is knowing that we can go and play music."

Saxo on Brexit: City of London may be forever changed
- London is world's leading financial centre with 40% of FX trade
- Some 20% of global hedge fund assets are London-based
- Shares of big UK banks are down some 35% in past year
- Brexit could spark exodus of foreign banks from London
- Employing a Barclay's call option to tackle EU referendum
Keep it on our Brexit pages throughout the runup to the vote
Even after considering the economic slowdown, negative interest rates and fragile financial markets, shares of UK-based banks in the FTSE 100 Index are down 36% on average in the past year. Since the recent highs in mid-May, shares have gone down again as surveys on average point to strength for the Leave campaign. Why could a Brexit change everything for the City of London?
Under current law, any UK authorised firm is free to do business within the European Economic Area (EEA) through a "passport" from UK regulators. This option makes it possible for non-EU banks such as JPMorgan Chase to access Europe from only one financial hub. Should the UK vote for leaving the EU, the price of the passporting right would increase dramatically, making it a very tough negotiation point for British prime minister David Cameron.
Brussels would likely not accept the Norwegian model whereby the UK would leave the EU but stay inside the EEA unconditionally. This would be political suicide as other member countries without the euro, such as Denmark and Sweden, could be tempted to hold referendums on EU membership as well. The Norwegian model also only makes sense for countries that never were inside the club.
The hard exit model means the UK would lose key influence over EU legislation and passporting would be off the table. A softer version would allow the UK to keep passporting but on certain conditions such as convergence of EU and UK laws governing financial markets.
In any case, Brexit poses a huge risk to financial firms and many are already implementing contingency plans in case of a messy outcome. Many banks have warned of massive layoffs and HSBC has said that around 1,000 of its investment banking employees would have to move to Paris. The City of London may never be the same again after a Brexit.
A good indicator of the high risk discounted in financial markets is implied volatilities for FTSE 100 compared to banks. The implied volatility for FTSE 100 July-15 ATM options is around 25% compared to around 58% for Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS). Investors can collect 7.1%-points in premium before commission by selling ATM straddle on RBS and buying ATM straddle on FTSE 100. The option market also shows that the market is less worried about HSBC. However, puts are generally more expensive than calls on UK banks.
How should investors navigate the Brexit event?
It is clear that no other segment of the UK equity market is more vulnerable to a Brexit than UK domiciled banks. A lot of downside risk has already been priced into these banking stocks. As such a short trade is not very attractive from a risk-reward perspective. GBPUSD risk-reversals (at around minus 8) are already indicating the direction of the flow and thus how worried the market is over the recent momentum to the Leave campaign.
Barclays daily share price since June 2015
This has influenced calls on a bank such as Barclays. The C165 July-15 is priced at 12p translating into around 7.2% premium. With around three weeks from the UK referendum to expiry of this call option a no Brexit would very quickly be incorporated fully into Barclays share price.
There is around 14% upside to recent highs at the end of May based on prices on June 13) While the premium may seem steep, it would easily be overcome should the UK decide to remain in the EU.

Instructional Design
About Instructional Design at Roger Williams University
What is instructional design and what does the ID team do for the University? As far as explaining the field of Instructional Design, Curtis L. Broderick, author of Instructional Systems Design: What It's All About defines the field this way:
"Instructional Design is the art and science of creating an instructional environment and materials that will bring the learner from the state of not knowing, not feeling or not being able to accomplish certain tasks to the state of knowing, feeling and being able to accomplish those tasks. Instructional Design is based on theoretical and practical research in the areas of cognition, educational psychology, and problem solving."
The ID team contains both Instructional designers and instructional technologists. These two types of positions are similar in job role and function. Both are higher education professionals who have been trained to apply the principles of instructional design to student learning and then evaluate the appropriate technologies and solutions to facilitate specific learning outcomes.
The Instructional Design team consults with faculty to create engaging, interactive, and instructionally sound programs. Team members work with you to find the appropriate technologies required for your course goals and then support you and your students in using the technologies. In order to do this, the team researchs and experiments with the latest technologies as well as the best practices and instructional strategies for using these tools within education. The ID team also develops and delivers workshops on teaching through technology and facilitate Institutes and special events driven by Academic Affairs initiatives for faculty wanting to learn more about course redesign and instructional technology.
An instructional designer can help you:
- Apply the appropriate pedagogy for the specific learning environment whether classroom, online, or blended
- Assist in developing learning objectives and determining how to align those objectives with appropriate assessment strategies to measure the desired learning outcomes
- Assist in the implementation of e-portfolios to provide course, program or individual student learning assessment
- Relate effective ways of motivating and engaging students in activities designed for learning
- Increase student collaboration through the use of online communications tools and group activities
- Become familiar with some of the technology tools currently available at RWU
- Select the technolog(ies) most suitable for the type of learning and course delivery
- Adapt instructional materials created for one format to another such as translating classroom instruction to online learning
- Design and create multimedia or other supplements to support learning

WS2: Negation
Workshop 2: Negation in the languages of the world
Matti Miestamo (University of Helsinki)
This workshop will bring together descriptive linguists around the topic of negation. The goal is to achieve multifaceted and comprehensive descriptions of the negation systems of various languages from different families and geographical areas. Negation is a topic that has been widely studied in various branches of linguistics and there is an extensive body of literature devoted to negation. Nevertheless, detailed and accurate descript ions of the domain of negation exist for a small minority of the world's languages.
In recent years, negation has attracted a lot of attention in typological scholarship. Large-scale typological studies of negation include Dahl 1979, Dryer 2013a, b, c and Miestamo 2005 for standard negation, van der Auwera & Lejeune 2013 for negative imperatives, Veselinova 2013, 2015, 2016 for the negation of existential and other stative predications, Haspelmath 2013 and Van Alsenoy 2015 for the negation of indefinite pronouns, and Miestamo 2014 for case marking under negation. However, there are several aspects of negation that have not been systematically studied in a cross-linguistic perspective. This is partly due the fact that not enough data from particular languages is available on these subdomains. There have been few systematic efforts to collect data from a wider variety of individual languages. This is a gap that needs to be filled both for the benefit of linguistic typo logy and for the detailed description of individual languages.
One systematic attempt saw light in 1994 with the publication of Kahrel and van den Berg's collective volume Typological Studies in Negation. In this volume, the negation systems of 16 languages from different parts of the world were described on the basis of a unified questionnaire that addressed the main subdomains of negation as they were known at that time. This volume has been very useful for typologists and for descriptive linguists as a source of data and as inspiration for systematic and unified collection of data from different languages with very diverse expressions of negation. However, no similar projects have been conducted ever since the publication of the volume 23 year ago. A similar effort was taken for one specific family, namely Uralic, by Miestamo et al. in 2015. For that volume, a functionally based questionnaire drawing from the current state of the art knowledge of the typology of negation was developed. The 17 Uralic languages included in the volume were described in a similar way following one and the same template. Thereby the descriptive situation of negation in Uralic languages has been greatly improved. However, this approach is yet to be applied to other languages and families.
Organizing this workshop is our response to this demand. The primary goal of the workshop is to produce comprehensive and detailed descriptions of negation systems in a diverse body of languages from different parts of the world. Specifically, we propose to use an expanded version of Miestamo's questionnaire first introduced in Miestamo et al. (2015). The expanded version will go into greater detail in understudied domains of negation such as 1) negation of stative predications (i.e. predications of equation, proper inclusion, property attribution, existence, location and possession), 2) negation in subordinate clauses, 3) lexicalization of negation, 4) negative derivation and case marking, 5) tense-aspect distinctions specific to the domain of negation. Another important outcome of this workshop will be to critically evaluate and further develop the existing questionnaire on the basis of the feedback from the workshop participants and anyone else using the questionnaire.
By describing languages on the basis of the questionnaire [see Negation questionnaire], the project will produce comparable datasets from a wide variety of languages and, from the descriptive linguist's point of view, it will result in a comprehensive and detailed description of the negation system of the particular language under study. This will be a prime example of the fruitful cooperation between typologists and descriptive linguists in the context of diversity linguistics.
The workshop will be opened by an introduction by the organizers presenting the idea an d the questionnaire. After that, each talk will focus on the description of negation in a specific language. It is not feasible that all the data collected using the questionnaire be presented in a 20-minute talk. Therefore the participants are instructed to give an overview of the negation system of their respective language and then focus on subdomains which, in their particular languages, are most distinctive or are of specific interest for cross-linguistic studies. These domains can for instance pertain to things that are especially rare or they can be domains that are problematic to describe.
After the workshop, we plan to organize an online peer-reviewed publication. The preference for an online publication stems from the ambition to ensure the inclusion of as many languages as possible, which is not feasible in a printed volume. Furthermore, an online platform will ensure the longevity and future growth of the initiative.

It's been a long time since I've blogged on here...but I have excuses! So I'll tell you a bit about what I've been up to and all of my excuses.
- I recently moved from campus out to eastern Oregon to start my field work and I will be here until the end of September, moving is such a pain! You can expect lots of new posts coming up showing what we are doing for field work.

To present in BYU LawStories on the Mainstage write a true story about your life and the law. You can focus on one main idea or weave several experiences together into a thematic whole. Remember that your experience does not need to be dramatic to be meaningful: significant events and epiphanies can occur in everyday experiences. Make sure you go beyond merely writing an anecdote, and create a story that has a narrative arc and illustrates growth, change, or a perceptual shift. Being specific and descriptive will help you connect with your readers and listeners, and lend your story authenticity and interest.
Up to ten selected storytellers from around the nation will receive:
• Due: 2.6.2020, Midnight (MST) via this form
• Titled
• 4 – 6 double-spaced pages in length (1000 – 1500 words)
• Non-fiction
• Tied in some way to your life and the law
• Original, unpublished work
• Content must not be (a) defamatory, threatening, or an invasion of a right of privacy of another person; (b) bigoted, hateful, racially or otherwise offensive; (c) violent, vulgar, obscene, pornographic or otherwise sexually explicit.
The narrative arc must show evidence of growth, change, or a perceptual shift. The story connects with the reader and listener, and shows more than tells. The story has a meaningful theme and is mechanically sound (outside editing is encouraged).
Due: 2.6.2020, Midnight (MST) via this form
Format: Word document
Cover page: List your name, contact information, and title of your story. Your title must also appear at the top of the story itself.

Castro Valley, California (EastBayDaily) — It's the middle of summer and the busy season for most residential and commercial window film companies, but did you know that window film can present profound energy savings all year round, not just when the sun is shining bright? A product released just under a year ago by Vista Window Film's EnerLogic window films does just this with their Low Emittance window film.
Daystar Window Tinting owner Mark Rascon commented, "EnerLogic's all-season window films are a game changer," specifically noting the benefits of EnerLogic's VEP35 technology. "This film is really quite incredible. Just like your standard reflective films, it keeps the sunlight, heat, and glare out of your home or office, which saves on your cooling costs. But what's really unique, is it insulates your windows keeping in heat in as well, meaning it will keep your heating costs down in the winter as well."
Daystar had the opportunity to install EnerLogic VEP35 on windows last winter in a Bay Area apartment complex where the owner was looking for ways to keep climate control costs down in colder weather. Now that summer is here and the mercury's rising, the residents of the complex are now experiencing the benefit of the same film that's keeping interiors much cooler, as well as providing other benefits like protection of home furnishings from harmful UV rays. In fact, EnerLogic film spec's boast 99% Ultra-Violet rejection, an emissiivity rating of an incredibly low 0.07, summer solar heat gain reduction of 72% and winter heat loss reduction of 42%.
Because EnerLogic's Low-e insulating window film provides maximum efficiency, the energy savings beat any other window film, providing an energy savings of up to 92%. Incredible results can be achieved when effectively "upgrading" thin and poorly insulated windows. "It's much more cost effective than replacing windows, and takes only a fraction of the time," says Rascon. "Any home or business owner should definitely explore EnerLogic's benefits before embarking on a window replacement project." According to Vistas's internal studies, EnerLogic film pays for itself in as little as 2.75 years, where window replacement may take up to 20 years before achieving a positive return on investment.
Perhaps what is most impressive, is EnerLogic film does all this while still providing exceptional optical clarity that looks great under any kind of light, and is fully compatible with high-efficiency lighting systems.
Daystar Window Tinting, a family owned business, has been installing residential and commercial window film in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1976. Recognized as Vista Window Film "Platinum Dealers", they provide exceptional service installing window film for Bay Area home and business owners. For a quote or more information, visit their website at daystarwindowtinting.com, or call them at (510) 749-7505.

Pinnochio, early composition 13", 1930s antique
Another antique Disney toy from Nancy's Dolls and Antiques
This is a very nice Disney Pinnochio in the 13" size. It is composition and made in the 1930's. Its composition is very good with one line under his nose and with paint loss on the eyes. His nose is very good, it is usually broken off. There is a chip off the back of his left ear and a small one under his black hair by his front hairline. His paint is mostly in very good condition. He wears his original one piece white and red suit with yellow felt jump suit over it with original yellow buttons, and original brass snap in the back. He has a large navy blue satin bow tie. He also has his original yellow felt hat which is usually missing. He can stand on his own if you position him correctly. He is marked on the back of his head : Pinnochio c in a circle WD/Knickerbocker Toys. What a great Disney collectible or for the vintage toy collector.

It was really hard to find a part-time job when I looked for it for the first time. There is no system of part time jobs in China. Basically, there are only job vacancies for long-term workers and freelancers. At last, I used a smartphone application to find a part time job, as my senior suggested. I have to wear a business suit for an interview and write a proper resume beforehand. However, because I did not attach a photograph, I was judged as having no willingness to work and was turned down.

I currently live in a new apartment. I like it despite its small size. The way I found this apartment was easy. When I intended to buy furniture from my friend who would graduate and return to her home country, I visited her room and loved the room at a glance. Then, I called the landlord immediately, telling him, "I want to rent the room after my friend leaves," and get his approval. Fortunately, I could move into the room without paying key money, security deposit, cleaning fee and brokerage fee. I only need to pay rent and payment deposit (which will be refunded after leaving).

I had to buy furniture when I moved into my apartment room. Because there was only little information, I bought all furniture at a store close to the apartment. It was convenient and quick, but then, I found cheaper furniture at an online store. Sometimes the shipping costs are offered free. There are also stores selling second-hand and low-priced furniture, and there are events such as bazaars at the university. Therefore, if you want to buy expensive goods, such as furniture, it would be better to collect information beforehand.

I moved into a new apartment room. It was not the first time I looked for a rented room, but I felt of being cheated on in this case. When I paid a reservation deposit and got information regarding rent, common expenses, key money, security deposit, and so forth, suddenly I was told, "It is necessary to pay 12,000 yen per year for waste management fee and disposal fee for disused articles." Besides, I was also told to pay 20,000 yen at the time of termination when I received the contract. Furthermore, the contract period was not for 1 year, but from April 1st to March 15th. It would be better to confirm all the expenses and not only the room rent before paying a reservation deposit.

When an applicant submits an application form, some universities require the applicant to submit a health certificate. I took a medical examination at the city office. When I found that there were findings written by the doctor and consulted about the result to the city office, the doctor told me, "Just to make sure, please have another examination and resubmit the documents." The reexamination result showed that there was no abnormality. Even if there are findings from the doctor, we have to remain calm about having reexamination. Please prepare your best physical condition before taking physical examination.

After getting "The Notice of Assessment of Premium for National Health Insurance and Insurance Billing Notice" and paid the bill, I realized that the amount I paid was different from that my friend did. After consulting to the university and getting confirmation from the National Health Insurance & Pension Section, it seems that there was an income miscalculation. A "Notice of Correction (Assessment) of Premium for National Health Insurance" was subsequently reissued, mentioning the correct amount of premium. Please do not think that documents related to government offices, such as city office, will not have any miscalculation. We need to confirm everything.

I had never gone to the dental since I came to Japan 5 years ago. I endured the pain while having a toothache. I hesitated because I thought that dental treatment in Japan was expensive and the treatment seemed to be painful. However, I could not stand the pain anymore and went to get the treatment for the first time. The female dentist was very kind and the pain went away quickly. The treatment cost was only 600 yen. I should've seen the doctor earlier. Do not judge things based on a presumption. I suggest you who have dental problems to get dental treatment early.

It is necessary to pay attention to the contract period of an Internet service. If you are a foreign student, keep in mind about your study period and the validity period of your visa. You should also pay attention regarding your selection over wired or wireless service. A wired service needs construction work. The operator will verify the connection status based on the residential area, housing condition (the height of the residence), and how the person is using the Internet service. The construction work will be carried out within a month after the application. Selecting a wireless service will have no particular problem although its charge and cancellation fee are a little bit more expensive.

I heard from an internet provider that a termination fee would be charged when you cancel the contract within a year. But when you cancel after a year or more, you have to pay the cost to remove the facility from the apartment. The cost is not high, but I a little bit surprised. I think better to check the termination fee in advance as well as other expenses when you sign the contract.

I'm not good at talking over the phone with any company or the university. I don't understand the honorific language spoken by the other party and I always feel nervous. Talking over the phone is different with face-to-face conversation. Because I cannot see the expression, I have to concentrate on the words being spoken. There are times when I did my best to explain, but the other party couldn't understand what I said. He/she must have thought that I have a poor Japanese communication skill.

I attended a farewell party of my friend. I went to the florist to buy some flowers. When I handed the beautiful flowers to him, he asked me, "Do you know the meaning of these flowers?" At that time, I answered that I chose the flowers because they were beautiful. However, on another occasion, I learned from another friend that the flowers I chose are used for funerals. I was really embarrassed. Since then, I decided to buy flowers after learning the meaning first. I want to let other international students know about this knowledge. Please do not make the same mistake as I did.

When I planned to go to Hong Kong, I had to arrange the flight and hotel by myself. Reservation through the Internet usually requires credit card. However, I didn't have a credit card at that time, so I couldn't make the reservation. In the end, I had to go to a travel agent to make the necessary arrangement by paying a fee. To prepare for an emergency situation, I should have signed up in advance for credit card by university co-op.

Air Conditioning Installation
You know when your air conditioning system is at the end of its rope; it's working much harder or it's working constantly and the output of cool air is much less. Or worse, it's not working at all. With the heat and humidity of the Indiana summer months, this is not a good situation.
When there's a lot of extra demand, you never want to be in the position of a having system that just quits during the coldest night of the year. So especially if your equipment is older, you might find yourself needing service or repair on your furnace.
When to Replace Your System
- You don't want to experience a breakdown – there's never a good time for your air conditioner to completely die during the summer months.
- Technology has come a long way – today's equipment is much more energy efficient and environmentally friendly that models from even 10 years ago. New systems can increase your efficiency to the point it helps pay for itself.
- Sometimes there are tax and utility credits – new equipment with high efficiency ratings may mean you get tax credits at the local and state level.
How We Can Help
In general, the lifespan of an air conditioner is about 10 years. There's no denying that replacing and installing a new air conditioner is a significant investment – and sometimes it's easy to put it off, thinking that you can save money by getting it to last just a little bit longer. But there are several reasons it might be good to be proactive.
