David Whaler
Reviewed by Judson Hurd
Mosaic is the newest album by David Wahler. I looked up artist David Wahler and found that he is a very prolific artist in the new age genre with six albums to date. The album has soothing synth, piano, light vocals, and pads along with other instruments. If you are a fan of Vangelis or other synth based music you will love this album.
"Mosaic" is the first track that starts with a gentle keyboard lead and then continues with subtle pads. It continues to build until haunting vocals come in and fade out the piece. "Afterain" beings with some subtle nature sounds and then some descending piano chords that put the listener in a dream like state. "A Promise to Keep" starts with simple piano notes in left hand and simple high notes that really set the mood. Simple but very relaxing and the mood stays relaxed with the pad coming in to complement the melody.
"Child of the Universe" starts with dramatic strings with a very sad and expressive vibe. It reminds me of music I would hear during a nature documentary. Vocals come in with the same sad feeling but when piano comes in it changes the mood of the piece to a more happy place. Beautiful! "August Cloud" is the next piece and starts with piano and a very beautiful synth sound. I love the synth sound and this is probably my favorite piece. The synth sounds in "August Cloud" remind me of the work of Vangelis which I am a huge fan.
"Elysian Dawn" is another piece that starts with nature sounds and soft keyboard leads. Contemplative vocals come in to complement the melody that synth takes over. I would love to know who is singing the vocal line because she has a very beautiful voice. "Heading Home" beings with piano and the continues with light, soothing percussion again with voice. I love David Wahler's use of percussion in his music. He doesn't have too much and it adds to the gentle, peaceful vibe of his music.
"Lone Sky Night" was a piece that caught my attention. I love pieces that can put scenes in my mind and this is one of them. It reminds me of the earlier music of Yanni and puts images in my head of staring at a full night of sky of stars in the middle of the desert. Of course, everyone is going to have different images and that is what makes music beautiful.
If you are a fan of electronic new age music I highly recommend this album!

Over four years of war has torn Yemen apart. Tens of thousands of civilians have been killed or injured and millions more displaced. The fighting has destroyed homes, schools and hospitals and prevented access to food, water and medicines. Nearly 80% of the population are now dependent on some sort of aid to survive.
Intermittent blockades have restricted the import of vital food, fuel and medicines, putting the lives of millions of Yemenis in jeopardy. 18 million people are already food insecure and UN officials fear that the country could tip into famine before the end of the year.
If the violence does not end, what has been described as the worst humanitarian crisis of our time, will only get worse.
Yemen can't wait any longer.

text: Public Relations Writing – Tips for Writing Strong PR Copy Posted on September 20, 2019May 22, 2019 by hightech No Comments A well-crafted PR copy is a crucial component of an effective public relations drive. Even though PR and media professionals are responsible for writing and editing press releases, anyone who writes a PR copy must continually improve their skills and strive to engage their readers in the best way possible. A press release should be precise and detailed and written with the audience in mind. The purpose of a PR copy is to spread valuable information to the public or gain positive exposure. Even the best writers have the room to perfect their skills when it comes to PR writing. In this post, we look at the public relations writing tips for a compelling PR copy. Let's read on: Have your audience in mind: Every writer knows that content is king, and to produce dynamic content, it's always necessary to know your potential readers and target audience. When writing a PR copy, ensure each word is curated to harvest appropriate awareness. The media have eyes for newsworthy content, and they will know your text is worthy or not from the title. Therefore, ensure your copy creates a tangible and lasting impression with every word. Open with a catchy gripping lead: The first rule in PR copywriting is to create a compelling point that will catch the reader's attention. A good lead sets up your writing in such a way that it doesn't devastate the readers but offers them satisfactory intuition to continue reading. The lead can impact your copy positively or negatively, so be keen to come up with a truly catchy one. Keep it short but detailed: Like articles, PR copies come with specific word count requirement. That's the reason why it's essential to avoid any unnecessary words in your writing. Alternatively, say more with fewer words by giving it a natural and smooth flow. The secret PR professional use to come up with a compelling copy is uprooting empty phrases as well as words that add no value to their writing while finding a more straightforward way to get the point home. Avoid passive voice in your copy: Editors don't like PR writing in the passive voice. For that reason, it's important to practice how to use the active voice when writing so that your copy looks clean, sound natural and is precise but detailed. Good writers are also good readers, and the more content you read, the better you become every day, thus reading more enhances your skills and improves your understanding of a good PR copy. Read your copy out aloud: Some people love to write, but not even once do they take time to read their own writing out loud. It's essential that after writing a PR copy, you read it out loud to help you simplify your statements and get rid of any wrong choice of words. Even editors read out aloud each of the press releases, landing pages, news and feature articles, and emails on their desks. Reading your work out aloud fine-tunes the final copy and makes it ready for publishing or distribution. Please check out more at pertinencecom.com

I CANNOT even begin to explain HOW AWESOME last week has been!
Yes, I know the title of this blog is self-explanatory, but hey, don't you wanna know more about it?
I mean like I wouldn't have, even in my wildest dreams, imagined meeting Chef Matt Moran!
Plus, when he eats your macarons and says THEY'RE GOOD… That is reason enough to faint or maybe pass out!
But don't worry!
I did of none of that stuff!
But I was
- tongue tied
- starstruck
- shocked
- scared out of my wits
Okay, I guess you get the gist!
So, how did this happen?
Yeah, well I'm sure you've been wanting to know this for a while!
Okay, so all the credit goes to Rushina and her team at APB Cook Studio!
I had already worked around my schedule for last Friday, making mental notes to ensure that I attend both my lectures at college, get home and work on my projects, update my blog when all of a sudden, out of nowhere, my phone buzzed at around 8:00 pm last Thursday night!
Earlier that morning, I'd sent them a mail telling them about my new-found love for making French Macarons without any nut or seed flour and I wasn't really hoping for a reply. But she did reply! And asked me to get a box of my secret ingredient macarons.
And this is the one that I made!
Of course, you might think that pistachios are nuts!
I do know that! What makes these macarons different is the fact that the actual macaron {The shell that is} does not contain nut or seed flour, unlike the traditional recipe of using almond flour! 😀
So, well, when that call ended, I waited nearly 5 minutes to process everything that was happening!
I mean, imagine this —–> You're going about your daily activities when BAM out of nowhere, you are told that the next day you're gonna be meeting the man himself???
That is just unreal!
So, I had so many things that I wanted to ask Chef Matt Moran when I would meet him !
But you won't believe! I couldn't utter a word!
I mean, LOOK AT MY FACE!
I look scared out of my wits! Not really scared! But you get the gist you know!? I mean Matt Moran is like one of my ideals and someone I look upto in the food industry!
And all of a sudden one fine Friday, I was LITERALLY LOOKING UP TO HIM! {He's sooo tall!!!!}
PS: You can see the macarons right next to Matt! 😉 The orange ones with green dots! 😀
So, Matt Moran picked a macaron and watched me as I was taking a pic and happily decided to pose!
{someone please pinch me, for I still CANNOT BELIEVE this!!!!}
Amazing right!>??
Oh one more!!!
And alllllllll the credit goes to RUSHINA and her team at APB Cook Studio for actually motivating me!!! I mean seriously, my will to success in the food industry and be a great pastry chef has only now become stronger!
The team at APB made me feel at home! I literally felt as though I were visiting a relative. They were so hospitable and made sure my granny and I were comfortable!
Besides, Matt and the team at APB insisted that we have lunch with them and I sampled baby potatoes with quail eggs{I ate quail eggs for the first time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!}, grilled asparagus salad with sundried tomatoes and macadamia nuts and pavlova!! Oh yum!!!!
I've had the greatest time and I am not sure any number of Thank Yous that I say will ever be enough!!!!
Thanks a MILLLLLLION RUSHINA!!! YOU LITERALLY MADE MY DAY AND MY LIFE! 🙂 🙂
Now, getting back to the macarons.
These are …well, macarons {that Matt Moran ate} 😉 😛
So, I'm gonna present you with the recipe:
Kesar Pista {Saffraon Pistachio Macaron}
Makes: 8 macarons (16 shells)
For the Macaron Shells:
38 gms kesar kishmish (Saffron and Raisins) instant quaker oats – get all the raisins out as grinding the raisins will release moisture.
50 gms icing sugar
38 gms caster sugar
1 egg white
orange food colour.
For the Creme Patissiere:
100 mls milk
1 egg yolk
2 tbs sugar
1 1/2 tsp cornflour
pistachio extract {or chopped pistachio nuts}
1 tsp vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean
Green food colour
To learn how to make the actual macaron shells, pop in here and scroll down to the method section. 🙂 Enjoy!
For the creme patissiere, heat milk with scraped vanilla bean pod along with the actual pod till the milk begins scalding.
While that happens, whisk the yolk and sugar together till creamy and pale. Pop in the cornflour and whisk some more.
Add just a bit of the warm milk to temper the eggs and whisk constantly. Then transfer the egg mix to the milk and return to heat, whisking constantly for nearly 3-4 minutes.
Remove from heat and let it cool before adding pistachios (nuts / extracts) and the green colour. Besides, if you decide to use vanilla extract instead, always add it along with the nuts and colour towards the end and not in the beginning.
Once its ready, use a cling film to cover the top to avoid skin formation.
And cool it for about 2-3 hours!
It will get nice and firm.
Pop it into piping bags and fill in the shells.
Your Kesar Pista {Saffraon Pistachio Macaron} is READYYYYY!!!!!!!!

Coreg Heart Medicine
Coreg® (carvedilol) is a prescription medication used for treating several conditions related to the heart and blood vessels. Specifically, it can help treat high blood pressure and congestive heart failure, and can also help improve survival rates following a heart attack.
As a heart medicine, Coreg works by decreasing blood pressure and making the heart more efficient, which allows more blood to be pumped from the heart. Because of these effects, the drug has been shown to:
- Decrease the progression of congestive heart failure
- Improve congestive heart failure symptoms (including exercise tolerance)
- Decrease hospitalizations and loss of life from congestive heart failure.
For people who have heart failure or left ventricular dysfunction following a heart attack, taking Coreg on a daily basis decreases the chance of death by 23 percent and decreases the risk of another heart attack by 40 percent.
Although it is an effective heart medicine, Coreg cannot cure congestive heart failure or high blood pressure.
(Click Coreg Uses for more information on this heart medicine and what it is used for. This article also discusses the effects of Coreg on the body and lists possible off-label uses.)

General Comment
It seems to be the budget week or two and e-Health seems to have done pretty well. Otherwise a big decision in the NT and a few other things – enjoy the browse!
NT prepares for mammoth overhaul of health IT
$259 million to be delivered by InterSystems
23 June, 2017 14:24
InterSystems Australia has been chosen by the Northern Territory government to replace the NT's key health IT systems.
The $259 million Core Clinical Systems Renewal Program (CCSRP) involves replacing four separate clinical IT systems used by the NT's health service.
The program was originally expected to cost $185.9 million, but the territory's government in this year's budget upped funding for the CCSRP.
The project involves implementing a single end-to-end system for NT public health services as well as a territory-wide, real-time health electronic record system.
GP support for mandatory 'paperless' prescriptions
Antony Scholefield | 23 June, 2017 |
A call to phase out paper-based prescriptions has been backed by one of the RACGP's e-Health experts.
Integrated electronic prescriptions should become mandatory for "any prescriber of a PBS-listed medicine, any pharmacist wishing to dispense a PBS-listed medicine", according to a Federal Government review of the pharmacy industry.
In its interim report, released on Thursday, the review says the current paper-based system is outdated and inconvenient, and increases the risk of adverse medical events.
Instead, paper prescriptions should no longer be the "version of record", and pharmacists should be able to retrieve the electronic prescription without sighting a paper version.
NSW Budget: Dominello reveals AU$536m for health IT infrastructure
The newly appointed Minister for Finance, Services, and Property said citizens are expecting better government services in the digital age.
New South Wales Minister for Finance, Services and Property Victor Dominello has offered a preview into the state government's 2017-18 Budget, due to be handed down on Tuesday.
Speaking at the opening of enterprise cloud company ServiceNow's new Australian headquarters in Sydney, Dominello said the state is pumping funding into eHealth initiatives as citizens are expecting better services in the digital age.
"We're spending money in relation to digital infrastructure," the minister explained on Monday.
NSW government earmarks $1 billion for major IT projects
State government splashes out to boost eHealth records system
20 June, 2017 13:07
The New South Wales government plans to spend close to $1 billion on major ICT and digital projects, the 2017-18 budget reveals.
The budget, handed down today, earmarks $522.5 million for health-related technology projects.
The government plans to spend $236.2 million on its integrated digital patient records program, including the roll out of the electronic medication management system to more NSW public hospitals and linking NSW Ambulance and hospital electronic medical records in "real time".
NSW Government to invest AU$536 million over eight years in health IT infrastructure
Investment areas include a central repository for patients' public hospital pathology results and rollout of the Electronic Medications Management System statewide.
The NSW Government is going to invest AU$536 million over eight years in IT infrastructure and systems to support the healthcare sector, including:
- digital infrastructure supporting the clinical and other health-related systems across NS
- digital patient records to ensure patient records are easy to read, accurate and instantly accessible whenever needed
- a central repository for patients' public hospital pathology results
- rollout of the Electronic Medications Management System statewide
Health Minister Brad Hazzard said research showed electronic systems can reduce medication errors, which could result in significant patient harm, by over 50 percent.
"Notes might be illegible, errors can be made transcribing medication charts, or charts can be lost but this technology helps ensure patients get the right medication at the right time," Mr Hazzard said.
E-health gets $536m in NSW state budget
By Justin Hendry on Jun 20, 2017 2:32PM
While digital transformation remains big focus.
Digital health infrastructure in NSW has received a bumper investment in the state's 2017 budget, with more than $500 million flowing to digital patient records and a system-wide digital platform.
In state budget papers handed down today, the government revealed the full cost of two major NSW Health projects that were first detailed in last year's budget.
Just over $286.3 million across nine years will "enhance the digital infrastructure that supports clinical and other health-related systems across the state", $16.4 million of which has been allocated in 2017-18.
20 June 2017
Putting patient data at the centre of care
Although private-health insurers don't fund GP consultations, we do play an important role in sharing information with general practitioners, and ensuring we promote and support the important work GPs do in preventative care.
There's a lot of talk, particularly in Canberra, about the spiralling cost of healthcare. It's something Medibank has experienced first-hand. Since 2011, the number of hospital admissions per Medibank customer has increased 19%, and the average amount Medibank pays in benefits per admission has increased 10%. These increases have seen average hospital benefits paid per customer increase by 31% in just five years.
This goes to the heart of the challenge Australia's health system faces. How can we make the best use of our healthcare resources? We know that much can be done, and is being done, to improve Australia's health outside the hospital walls. Delivering care in an environment that is more comfortable for the patient, in their home or in their GPs' rooms is a solution that can improve the patient's experience of care, and help reduce the cost of care. However, we know that investment in, and support of, primary care is vital to allow this model to flourish.
Coding errors cause 300,000-plus mismatches in South Australian medical imaging data
Brad Crouch, Medical Reporter, The Advertiser
June 20, 2017 7:47am
MORE than 300,000 medical images were wrongly labelled when SA Health moved them to a new computer system, raising the risk of "harm to patients through inaccurate diagnosis".
The mix-ups include images of wrists being called feet, brains filed as chests and breasts classified as heads.
The Advertiser's revelation of SA Health's latest bungle comes amid a billion-dollar, pre-election spending spree on health by the State Government, with Labor MPs making announcements at Flinders Medical Centre, Modbury, Queen Elizabeth and Lyell McEwin hospitals.
SA Health takes disaster recovery gamble to save money
By Allie Coyne on Jun 20, 2017 5:27PM
Pathology systems overhaul running over time, budget.
South Australia's Health department has decided not to implement a secondary site for disaster recovery with its new state-wide pathology system in an effort to save costs from a project that is running late and over budget.
In late 2015, the state's audit office looked into SA Health's enterprise pathology laboratory information system (EPLIS) overhaul and warned it was likely to run out of money before it was complete.
The project was funded from a 2012, $30.4 million investment to replace two ageing and incompatible Cirdan Ultra instances and as many as 30 smaller pathology systems across in labs and hospitals across the state.
SA Health in 2014 signed a contract with Cerner to introduce its Millennium suite of pathology lab information modules, signalling the start of the transformation.
My Health Record Update - Release 8
22 Jun 2017
The Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) has recently released an update to the MyHealth Record that it says is designed to improve its usability.
According to the ADHA, in addition to a number of cybersecurity and back end system improvements, changes have been made to the front end portals for both clinicians and consumers as part of this release.
The next time clinicians access a My Health Record, among a number of changes, they will notice a new Medicines Information view, which will sort and display medicines information held in the patient's My Health Record documents in date or alphabetical order. This view can also be found in most clinical information systems (CIS) under the OTHER DOCUMENTS LIST.
Microsoft believes it can change how Australian GPs work
20 June 2017
Sixty Australian practices are about to test a video-based consultation process, writes Neil Bramwell.
A 1925 cover of Science and Invention magazine featured a drawing of an imaginary medical device, the teledactyl.
The magazine's publisher, Hugo Gernsback, predicted the device would use the new medium of radio communication to allow a doctor to view their patients on a screen and touch them with spindly remote-controlled robotic arms by the year 1975.
Technology hasn't quite caught up with Gernsback's imagination, but the development of telemedicine or telehealth or virtual health — call it what you will — is in overdrive.
Couple this proliferation of technology with the political will to harness the apparent efficiencies and it's clear that telemedicine will become an integral part of primary care.
To date, however, there has been little clarity on how to make commercial sense of the expansion of telemedicine services in primary care.
NSW appoints full-time privacy commissioner
By Allie Coyne on Jun 22, 2017 2:02PM
Brings in health privacy executive.
The NSW government has made the role of state privacy commissioner a full-time position with the appointment of Samantha Gavel.
Gavel takes over from Elizabeth Coombs, who has been acting in the position part-time, or three days a week, for the past five years. Her term finished last November.
The state government indicated at the time that it intended to employ Coombs' replacement on a full-time basis following complaints by Coombs about resourcing.
Gavel is currently the national health practitioner ombudsman and privacy commissioner. She previously served as the private health insurance ombudsman for six years.
Extension of EOI deadline to Friday 7 July, 5pm for diagnostic imaging and pathology services offers
The Australian Digital Health Agency (the Agency) has amended the diagnostic imaging and pathology services offers in response to recent feedback from industry representatives to ensure we can help as many organisations as possible to take advantage of the offer. We will therefore extend the deadline for lodging EOIs by two weeks to Friday 7 July at 5pm (AEST).
We expect to publish the updated offer documents on Monday 26th June. If you are planning to submit an EOI by the original deadline, please wait until we publish the updated offer, so that you can consider your response in light of the updates.
The Agency has contacted all organisations who have already submitted EOIs and advised them that they have until Friday 7 July to amend, withdraw, or keep unchanged their EOI in light of the updated offer. All EOIs received will be evaluated after the new offer close date of Friday 7 July.
My Health Record System News
Pathology and Diagnostic imaging update
Recently some health services have started to use the capability to upload patient pathology and diagnostic imaging reports to the My Health Record system.
The Australian Digital Health Agency has taken another step towards having a more integrated health industry by announcing that more organisations, both public and private, have begun uploading pathology and diagnostic reports during June.
The benefits of receiving, viewing and storing a patient's test results in the one place are significant for both the patient and their treating healthcare providers as it enables patients to share their test results with any number of treating providers. Clinicians will also benefit from having access to their patient's results in circumstances where they did not initiate the requests.
A new Medicines Information view in the My Health Record
New improvements to the My Health Record System
Over the past year, the Agency has worked with valued partners and the industry in order to deliver value in My Health Record and realise benefits of digital health in Australia. The Agency have incorporated public contributions in crafting the release by consulting over 140 Clinicians and 220 Consumer in order to deliver the best possible outcome.
1) New Medicines Information view
The next time you access a patient's My Health Record, you may notice the new Medicines Information view.
The Medicines Information view can quickly sort and display medicines information held in a patient's My Health Record documents in date or alphabetical order. The medicines information is gathered from:
- the patient's most recent (and up to two years') Prescription and Dispense records and other PBS claims information
- the patient's most recent Shared Health Summary and Discharge Summary
- recent Event summaries, Specialist Letters and e-Referral Notes uploaded to the patient's record since their latest Shared Health Summary, and
- the patient's Personal Health Summary that may include any Allergies or Adverse Reactions and other key information
Register to flag ADF suicide risk
- The Australian
- 12:00AM June 19, 2017
Sean Parnell
Australian Defence Force personnel and veterans may be singled out in an electronic health record system being rolled out across Australia, as authorities look to reduce the number of military suicides.
With My Health Records set to go national next year on an opt-out basis, automatically registering people unless they say otherwise, the departments of health and defence are discussing how best to support ADF personnel and veterans.
In 2014, before the decision to make records opt-out, the Department of Veterans' Affairs negotiated the inclusion of an ADF indicator on the My Health Record, allowing individuals to self-identify their military status.
My Health Record registrations up
More than 20% of Australia's population is now registered for a My Health Record, according to the Department of Health.
Over 4.91 million people (out of Australia's 23.8 million) now have a My Health Record, with an average of one new registration being created every 38 seconds.
Of the registrants, 54% are female and 46% male, while there are 9,879 connected healthcare providers including GPs, hospitals, pharmacies, aged care residential services and allied health providers.
Inquiry calls for Centrelink 'robo-debt' system to be put on hold
Report highlights 'procedural fairness flaws'
22 June, 2017 06:30
The report of a Senate inquiry has recommended that Centrelink pause its automated data-matching program designed to claw back welfare overpayments.
The system has been criticised both for its accuracy and the impact on welfare recipients. The report of the Senate's Community Affairs Reference Committee, tabled last night, recommended that the so-called Online Compliance Intervention (OCI) "should be put on hold until all procedural fairness flaws are addressed" and a range of other recommendations implemented.
The committee's report said that Between November 2016 and March 2017, at least 200,000 people received notices under the OCI relating to potential welfare overpayments.
Woolworths CTO quits for healthcare
By Allie Coyne on Jun 19, 2017 5:43PM
Change of scenery.
Woolworths chief technology officer Ryan Fahy has left the retailer for the healthcare sector, taking on the chief information officer role at Primary Health Care.
Fahy had spent around two-and-a-half years at Woolworths as its CTO, including a brief period as its acting chief information officer after Clive Whincup resigned this time last year.
Since November Fahy has been working under replacement Woolworths CIO John Hunt, who came over from Woolworths South Africa.
Medical Must-See: Meet the colonoscopy worm-bot
Sophie Attwood | 23 June, 2017 |
Although the prospect of a worm robot inching its way through your colon may be a touch disconcerting, it could actually be a safer and more comfortable alternative to traditional colonoscopies.
Scientists from the University of Colorado in the US have created a worm-like device that can cleverly navigate the human colon, collecting images along the way.
The latest in the field of robotic aides, the 13cm-long 'worm' is made up of three flexible sections and nine shape-memory alloy springs, which convulse in a peristaltic motion mimicking that of the gut.

NBN withholds individual internet speeds
- The Australian
- 8:00PM June 20, 2017
Anthony Klan
The National Broadband Network has details of the achievable internet speeds for every home it has connected but refuses to release the information despite widespread confusion among consumers seeking to connect.
The fact NBN Co has both "theoretical" speeds — the speeds it expects homes not yet connected will achieve — and actual speeds post-connection also raises questions as to the necessity of a $7 million federal government program to monitor connection speeds in 4000 homes.
Industry experts interviewed by The Australian have raised concerns NBN Co has widespread detailed net speed information and is not releasing it publicly but only to retail telco providers, who may have financial incentives to suppress the information.
Govt goes ahead with broadband tax bill
By Ry Crozier on Jun 22, 2017 11:43AM
Reiterates assertion that NBN customers won't pay more.
The federal government has made good on its promise to introduce broadband tax legislation before parliament wraps up for the winter.
Minister for Urban Infrastructure Paul Fletcher introduced a pair of telecommunications bills today that set NBN Co as the new default fixed-line operator in Australia, and paved the way for a broadband tax to cover future fixed wireless and satellite costs.
The broadband tax converts an "opaque" internal NBN cross-subsidy of regional and rural connections into a "transparent" monthly charge of $7.10 per premises served by FTTx and HFC technologies.
Three charts on: the NBN and Australia's digital divide
Melissa Sweet on: June 21, 2017
Let's spend billions of dollars widening the social, economic and health gap between people who are already quite privileged and those who are not so well off.
Is that what we're doing with the National Broadband Network (NBN)?
OK, that may be a touch hyperbolic but the article below suggests there is mounting evidence that the NBN rollout is more likely to exacerbate than alleviate health inequities.
And there are other reports of variable access to the NBN within regions (see the tweet below from former MP Tony Windsor about differential access in regional NSW, responding to these concerns about inequitable access in Bendigo, relative to other regional centres in Victoria).
ACCC seeks volunteers for NBN speed tests
- 19 June 2017
- Written by Sam Varghese
The competition regulator has invited Australians to join a new programme that will measure and compare broadband speeds across the country.
Under the programme, which aims to find out if issues relating to poor speeds at peak times are caused by the NBN Co's performance or network management decisions made by ISPs, hardware devices will be installed in about 4000 homes for four years.
The ACCC said the aim was to get about 2000 volunteers in the first year. The devices will carry out remote tests to determine typical speeds on fixed-line NBN services throughout the day.

How Society Can Maintain Human-Centric Artificial Intelligence
Published in Human-centered digitalization and services, 2019
Recommended citation: Bryson, J. J., & Theodorou, A.(2019). Improving robot transparency: real-time visualisation of robot AI substantially improves understanding in naive observers.Toivonen-Noro, Marja I, Saari E., Melkas H., and Hasu M., eds. Human-centered digitalization and services http://www.cs.bath.ac.uk/~jjb/ftp/BrysonTheodorou19.pdf
[Open access] http://www.cs.bath.ac.uk/~jjb/ftp/BrysonTheodorou19.pdf
Although not a universally held goal, maintaining human-centric artificial intelligence is necessary for society's long-term stability. Fortunately, the legal and technological problems of maintaining control are actually fairly well understood and amenable to engineering. The real problem is establishing the social and political will for assigning and maintaining accountability for artefacts when these artefacts are generated or used. In this chapter we review the necessity and tractability of maintaining human control, and the mechanisms by which this can be achieved. What makes the problem both most interesting and most threatening is that achieving consensus around such an approach requires at least some measure of agreement on broad existential concerns.

Financial Tips and Ideas from WireLend:
It Never Hurts To Ask To Waive Fees
Whenever you sign up for anything that has an advertised service charge or sign up fee, ask if it can be waived. Sometimes these fees are flexible and will be waived. You'll save money simply for asking.
Sell Car Parts
This money saving tip is essential for black thumb (people who are skilled at cars) individuals. One way a mechanic can save a lot of money is salvaging car parts. Some vehicles don't make out the shop in the best conditions, and they end up in junkyards. Most mechanics explore these junkyards for parts. Some car parts in the junkyard work just as good as any new part in an auto parts retail store, and they're cheaper. If you have a lot of free time, you can excavate a vehicle and take any parts that are in high demand. You'd be surprised how much you earn and save for later.

In recent years, I have enjoyed working on series of paintings. Over a period of one year or often even longer, I let myself become completely immersed in a world that I have created. I need to dive into my subject for a long time to find the essence in the shapes and colors with which to tell my story. I trust that I am a committed artist, that I have a message to deliver in the hope that everyone will understand and read something, each in his or her own way.

Do you want to understand what $sinx$ and $cosx$ are once and for all? Do you want to look at the formula $sin^2x + cos^2x=1$ and know exactly how to prove it? If the answer is yes, continue reading.
So, what is $sinx$?
Let's say we have a right triangle with the sides
c and the angle
x between
c and
Then, by definition
That's it! You take an angle in the right triangle, divide the opposite side by the longest side (the hypotenuse),
and you get the
sine of this angle. Note that $sinx$ does not depend on the size of a right triangle,
as long as it contains the same angle $x$, since all such triangles are similar.
Cosine, tangent and cotangent are defined similarly:
These are just the short way to refer to the ratios of the sides of the right triangle. There is no magic.
Now, why is $tanx={sinx \over cosx}$?
Why is $tanx=\frac{1}{cotx}$?
Can you prove that $cotx=\frac{cosx}{sinx}$?
Everyone has seen this formula before
It is called Pythagorean trigonometric identity. Where this formula comes from is not usually well explained. They make us remember it in high school. Let's see if we can prove it using the definitions above and the Pythagorean Theorem which states that $a^2 + b^2=c^2$
Applying the pythagorean equation $a^2 + b^2=c^2$ to the numerator, we get
And it proves that $sin^2x + cos^2x=1$.

Retail Sourcing and Procurement Market Development,
Growth and Demand
July 14, 2017
The retail sector is increasingly using sourcing and procurement solutions to automate their
procurement processes, such as speed analysis and procure to pay. Improved collaboration between
suppliers and retailers, better visibility in sourcing data and the demand for centralized procurement
processes is expected to boost the growth of the global retail sourcing and procurement market.
Increasing customer satisfaction & efficiency of processes, and development & innovation in mobile
technologies are supporting towards the growth of the global retail sourcing and procurement market.
The retail sourcing and procurement technique, compared to other products available in the market, is
enabling end users to become more informed. The increasing adoption of sourcing and procurement
processes by food & beverages and aerospace suppliers are further expected to enhance the growth
of the retail sourcing and procurement market during the forecast period.
Automation in procurement activities had witnessed growth during last couple of years owing to
increasing adoption of mobile applications and cloud based applications, which are assisting
procurement and sourcing processes. The technological up gradation in sourcing and procurement
process for retail industry is leading to enhanced competition in retail industry due to low entry barrier
for the small companies. To maintain market position with progressive technological advancement,
retailers are observing opportunities in the retail sourcing and procurement market due to expected
increase in demand for inventory management and store operations during the forecast period. Some
of the major restraints such as high costs, complexities, ever-changing store networks, seasonality of
transportation and services and unwillingness for the adoption of latest technology are hampering the
growth of the global market.
Sample at: www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/retail-sourcing-and-
Internet of things (IoT) is expected to allow the supply chain management and enterprise resource
planning to work together by connecting processes, data, people, and things with sensors and
devices. IoT in the transportation and the supply chain industries portrays a larger picture in the
present scenario and IoT is expected to enable organizations to plan better, to work smarter and
foster more intelligent decision-making processes.
The retail sourcing and procurement is a business function that has direct and significant impact on
bottom-line performance of the organization. The savings can be attained through effective sourcing
and procurement practices which also enable companies to reinvest in growth, facilities, personnel
and equipment for improving the performance. The procurement industry is expected to witness three
emerging technology trends, including the social sourcing, internet of things (IoT), and predictive
analytics. It is estimated that the predictive analytics have the highest impact on the market during the
forecast period. Predictive analytics detects the purchasing behavior over time, which enables to
forecast a direction of action. This information is expected to enable procurement teams start
responding to the problems proactively.
Geographically, North America is expected to be the largest market, followed by Europe during the
forecast period. The market is also expected to emerge in the regions of Asia-Pacific, Latin America,
and Middle East and Africa (MEA). However, it has been estimated that the growing emergence of
Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trend and developments in the field of cloud analytics, have led to the
high adoption of sourcing and procurement solutions in the retail sector.
Some of the key players in the global retail sourcing and procurement markets are SAP SE, Oracle
Corp., IBM Corp., Zycus Inc., PROACTIS Group, GT Nexus Inc., Epicor Software Corp., Tradogram
Inc. and Vroozi Inc.

Clemson fan helps Dabo Swinney build BYOG brand
Like many Clemson fans, Allison Van't Hof watched the broadcast from the comfort of her couch. Like many Clemson fans, she jumped off that couch after the Tigers' sealed a riveting 24-22 victory against Notre Dame. Like many Clemson fans, she jumped even higher when she heard coach Dabo Swinney's postgame interview.
"We give you scholarships. We give you stipends and meals and a place to live. We give you nice uniforms. I can't give you guts. I can't give you heart," Swinney yelled hoarsely into the microphone on Oct. 3, 2015. "And tonight, it was BYOG— bring your own guts."
Van't Hof knew the phrase would catch. Partly because it instantly resonated with viewers all the way on the West Coast.
Unlike many Clemson fans, Van't Hof lives in California.
"I said, 'Oh my gosh, I bring my own guts every day,'" she recalled. "BYOG, it kind of became my mantra the rest of the night. I was just like, 'I hope somebody is doing something with this.'"
Van't Hof did not know then that she would be that somebody.
Van't Hof owns and operates Out of the Box Promotional Marketing. Through a chance encounter and an impromptu business proposal, Van't Hof partnered with Swinney and planned to develop BYOG into more than a catchphrase.
A year later, BYOG is a full-fledged brand and clothing line. Van't Hof manages the marketing, trademark, merchandising and website (byoggear.com). The four-letter mantra is emblazoned on hats, shirts, sweaters and other items.
A portion of the proceeds from sales are allocated to Swinney's All-In Foundation, which supports breast cancer awareness and educational initiatives.
"BYOG, it's a way of life. That's the brand messaging Clemson has taken on through Coach Swinney's impassioned directive," said Van't Hof, who grew up in Belmont, North Carolina before venturing west to attend Pepperdine University.
"I work with clients all over the world," she said, "but this has reignited my Southern roots. Working with everybody around Clemson, I feel like the luckiest girl in the world."
Luck initiated this partnership.
Van't Hof shares an office with the public relations firm that manages a charitable foundation for Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians. At a business event, Van't Hof was introduced to Arians' agent, Mike Brown. During their cordial conversation, Van't Hof learned that Brown manages another popular, charismatic coach.
Dabo Swinney.
"I just stopped in my tracks," Van't Hof said. "'You mean that coach at Clemson?' From that point on, Mike Brown could not get a word in edgewise. I just went off going, 'I bring my own guts every day. It's a way of life. It's a lifestyle. What are you going to do with that? Do you know what I do?"'
Intrigued by Van't Hof's enthused inquiry, Brown agreed to a follow-up meeting over an NFL game.
"I wrote up a business plan on cocktail napkins," Van't Hof said. "I told him what Coach Swinney could do to make BYOG a mantra and brand for Clemson University outside of football, because Clemson is such a unique institution.
"You bring your own guts to go to Clemson. You bring your own guts to get through a final. You bring your own guts to pledge a fraternity or sorority or try out for the band or stand up for sexual assault."
Two weeks later, Brown called with four more words.
"Allison, we love it."
"It was Thanksgiving of last year," Van't Hof said. "Coach Swinney was on board. He loved my business model. He appreciated my passion. He appreciated my experience. Since then, we have been on this journey, developing a brand and creating this very special message."
Through her partnership with Swinney, Van't Hof smoothly secured licensing rights from Clemson and the Collegiate Licensing Company. The new partners also negotiated the transfer of all trademarks of "B.Y.O.G." and "Bring Your Own Guts" from FanBase Sports Pro, a company based in Athens, Georgia.
FanBase Sports Pro applied to trademark the phrase three days after the landmark game. Three days after that, Brown encouraged Swinney to apply for trademarks as well, through Swinney's company, Katbo, LLC.
"They hadn't done anything with it," Van't Hof said of FanBase Sports Pro. "They were super supportive and had no reluctance to signing over the licensing to us."
In addition to the online store, Van't Hof's BYOG merchandise is sold in local shops throughout the Upstate and around the stadium during home games. She said her company also is pursuing partnerships with various Clemson student groups to support campus causes.
"Brands aren't built overnight," she said. "We're building a lifestyle brand. We're building a brand that has meaning, that has purpose. It is a slow build, but we're very happy with where we are in our journey."
Van't Hof said the dynamism of the mantra and Swinney's magnetism have forged a community around the brand. She asserted that community and the daily affirmation of the spontaneous message compelled her to persevere through personal tragedy.
"I have met so many people and have heard so many stories about their trials, tribulations and triumphs. It's inspiring. It attracts. It wants you to be a part of it. It draws you in, and it's intoxicating," she said. "My mom recently died. September 1. The stories I've heard, the people I've met, I don't know if I would have been able to get through the way I got through if I wasn't a part of Bring Your Own Guts and this lifestyle and this constant reminder of getting through.
"We're survivors. Whether it's blocking the offense in an impassioned game or doing what you have to do tomorrow to pay your bills, you 'Bring Your Own Guts' in every move you make."[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Here is our update with our latest numbers and we are happy to report that we are within reach of surpassing our April goal! Thank you to everyone who has become a part of our ministry in this way. Another one of my April goals was to update our website. You can check it out here: ryanwithjoy.com. Thank you to everyone who has been advocating for us, your words and invitations make an impact on our ministry. This month we have become particularly aware of this as we see our support team continue to grow and how God is gathering people who we have known for a long time as well as those who have more recently connected with us. What is advocating? Advocating is as easy as talking about Australia and encouraging others to get involved and learn about our ministry (Why Australia?).
Last support update we reported that we were at 57.3% of our goal but now we are at 59.2%! This means that another $83 a month in pledges will help us reach our April goal of 60%. Just one individual or couple giving $100 a month could help us surpass this goal. Or just 4 individuals or couples giving $25 a month. It's easy to give by contacting MTW (Mission to the World) or using their online giving site: donations.mtw.org. This will help keep us on track to be at 75% by the end of June when we head to Europe for training.
Please keep praying for our support and God's timing. Thursday we begin our cross country road trip for support and training. It will be a wonderful, exhausting trip but we keep focusing on God's presence and all we have to be thankful for. We appreciate your prayers and financial gifts that will keep us serving. Thank you for helping us get to Australia!

And millennia of men were relieved to hear that size doesn't matter.
The Non-Miraculous Explanation:
Malcolm Gladwell, author of David And Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, And The Art Of Battling Giants, points out that clues in the verses where Goliath is introduced suggest that he suffered from acromegaly -- the same pituitary disorder that's plagued extraordinarily large individuals throughout history. First off, there's the fact that Goliath lumbers his way onto the battlefield led by an attendant. Why would the Philistines' mightiest warrior need an attendant? Possibly because, as is often the case with an enlarged pituitary gland, Goliath couldn't see for shit. This is further reinforced by how, once he finally spots David, Goliath taunts him with, "Am I a dog, that you come at me with sticks?" David was only carrying a single shepherd staff, which Goliath refers to in the plural -- double vision is also associated with the disorder.
Then he inexplicably called David "four eyes," and David really got pissed.
And then there's David. He was a shepherd with years of practice defending his flock from lions and wolves with his sling. And a sling was not some primitive weapon at the time -- slingers were the artillery units of a Biblical army. Add in the fact that the stones David picked up in the Valley of Elah were "twice the density of normal stones" due to the chemical makeup of rocks in the area, and he was packing a weapon "roughly equal to the stopping power of a [.45 caliber] handgun." Goliath, an already handicapped opponent, brought a sword and a spear to a gunfight.

Botanical Expressions
The Thoughtful Reflections of Two Artists
It's almost here. All the preparation. All the work of designing, creating and finishing pieces for this exhibit. It is coming to fruition. On May 20th, the Botanical Expressions Exhibit opens at Commonwheel Artists Co-op in Manitou Springs, CO. and runs through June 13th. The opening reception is this Friday, May 20th from 5-8 PM.
I am experiencing a myriad of feelings. Gratitude. Relief that all the work I wanted to create happened. A sense of accomplishment in that I did this, it's done and I am so happy with all the beautiful pieces of art jewelry finished specifically for this exhibit.
If you will indulge me, I would like to share a story about an artist/friend who inspired me years ago with her journey. Tracey Clarke, a gifted oil painter. She shared her preparation for an exhibit like this through her blog posts. How she came up with her proposal for a show, the process of creating works with a given theme and ultimately, the hanging of her show. This is the link to one of her posts about the process. I got to know Tracey through an artist forum where we shared works, stories, frustrations, and successes. I was in awe of Tracey's gifts and how she prepared for her show. I wondered if I could ever do the same with my art and now 5 years later, with my metalwork, I too have completed the process for my first exhibit. For me, this is one of those goals artists have to create a body of work, that demonstrates focus, skill and a passion for what we do. People touch our lives in ways they don't realize, and Tracey did many things for me with her strength, courage and grace. Sadly, Tracey was taken from this world in December 2013 after a hard fought battle with brain cancer. I miss her.
The vision for Botanical Expressions is showing what two artists can do in their respective mediums. My Chasing & Repoussé art jewelry and Jo Gaston's watercolor paintings will be displayed with our interpretations of elements in nature that we find most beautiful. In some cases we discussed having works that were of the same subject matter such as acorns and aspens. Of course there will be others that embody our love of a particular species.
As I have said, this is the first time I have prepared and submitted a proposal with a particular theme. Both Jo & I are extremely grateful to Commonwheel Artists Co-op for providing not only the opportunity, but the venue for an exhibit of this kind. Earlier this year, Commonwheel remodeled and their Creekside Gallery room is perfect for visiting artists like Jo and myself to display our works.
As I prepared for this show, I envisioned demonstrating the many diverse forms of art jewelry that can be created through the ancient art of Chasing & Repoussé. Continuing with that thought, I also wanted to show how I could incorporate a wide variety of metal in those works. Although the majority of my work in this show is in sterling silver, I was able to utilize steel with fused gold and Japanese alloys like Shibuichi and Shakudo.
As an artist, I am always looking for ways to challenge myself. Doing a show of this nature pushes one to stretch and grow. Prior to getting ready for this event, my main focus with Chasing & Repoussé has been creating cuffs like the one pictured below. The canvas for that type of jewelry is larger and gave me a lot of freedom to express my organic style.
Creating a new body of work for this exhibit, to my surprise and delight, I discovered how completely Chasing & Repoussé lent itself to these delicate works with their minute details. The metal moved beautifully and I was thrilled to discover all I envisioned coming to life.
My belief is anytime you step outside of your comfort zone, something wonderful will happen. In this case, fresh ideas, new work and friendships are just the start of the positive impact this event has already had on my life and my work.
I hope that you will be able to join us for this unique, insightful visual display of the thoughtful reflections of two artists.
Until next time, I continue to aspire to be more as an artist and a person.

New Delhi. In the first decision of its kind in India, the central government announced today that revealing Game Of Thrones spoilers will be a capital offence from now onward. For a time period of 7 days from the day of broadcast, anyone indulging in revealing spoilers to anyone will be arrested and prosecuted under this new law.
Game of Thrones is an American fantasy drama television series created for HBO and is among the most successful TV series of all times. Game of Thrones is on HBO every Sunday night (Early Monday morning India time) and is the most downloaded show ever on Torrents, revealing its huge popularity in India.
Making this announcement, Minister for I&B, Mr Arun Jaitley said, "We had received lot of complaints that attendance in schools, colleges and offices was abysmally low on Mondays as people stayed indoors to avoid anyone revealing the episode's spoilers. This was affecting the productivity in all sectors and thus impacting our economic growth."
"Many had blamed the Finance minister, that is me, for the sluggish recovery of the economy but we identified the problem to be Game Of Thrones. We had thought of banning the TV show itself keeping in mind Indian culture of bans but then, someone mentioned that most Indians anyway watch it through illegal downloads. A ban wasn't going to do the trick in that case", Mr Jaitley went on to add.
This decision has been welcomed by a lot of Game Of Thrones fanatics in India. Faking News spoke to some of them for their reactions. One fan from Delhi, Tarun Saini said, "This is fantastic. Now people will think twice before ruining the episode for those who couldn't get up early morning. Right now, you enter metro for your daily commute and 1st thing you hear is someone died on the show. This spoiler terrorism had to be countered."
Another fan, Urmila Malik was not totally satisfied though. She said, "Stopping TV show viewers is fine but what about book readers? They need to put that Pollard tape on the mouths of them. Saying the line 'But in books it happened like that' has to be criminalized as well. These half-baked measures won't help."
Although fans are happy, this decision has been criticized widely by civil society activists. Senior journalist Rajdeep Wagle lashed out at Government and said, "This is exactly the kind of fascism we had warned people about. Modi Govt is clamping down on free speech. We must stand up for the right to reveal Game of Thrones spoilers. In next episode, __________ (Faking News can't print that part as it included spoilers)"
As expected, the matter has got a political twist with Congress saying protecting Game Of Thrones viewers shows BJP is indulging in minority appeasement that it pretends to hate. Senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh asked why was the same law has not been passed for Kumkum Bhagya spoilers?
Meanwhile, Delhi CM and AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal has alleged that BJP is caring more for Game of Thrones because Targaryens, Lannisters, Baratheons, Starks, Martells, Tyrells, sab BJP se mile hue hain..

ROCKFORD, Ill. (WIFR) -- According to a study, general anesthetic during a C-section birth can cause severe post-partum depression and increased pain in mothers.
The side effects range from delayed breastfeeding to suicidal thoughts and is bad for the mother-child relationship. The original study says new mother dissatisfaction paired with the anesthesia can cause negative mental health outcomes. Doctors say general anesthesia isn't always a bad thing, but should be avoided except in cases of emergency.
A local doctor, Tim Durkee, from the Swedish American Creekside Medical Center informs us, "It appears from the study that the woman who underwent general anesthesia for cesarean delivery, rather than regional, seemed to have more severe postpartum depression."
Because the study only looked at C-section deliveries in New York, researchers say that more studies may be needed before coming to any concrete conclusions.

Gbur and Trumbo (1995) published a list of ways of producing effective key words and phrases. Table 2.4.3 provides an abbreviated version.
It is possible that, with future developments, all of these problems will actually disappear. As one colleague has put it, 'Inverted-full-text-Boolean indexing and online searching (with similarity algorithms and citation-
Table 2.4.2 Different methods for supplying key words
Authors supply them with no restrictions on the numbers allowed.
Authors supply up to a fixed number (e.g. six).
Authors supply key words as appropriate from a specified list.
Editors supplement/amend authors' key words.
Editors supply key words.
Editors supply key words from a specified list.
Referees supply key words from a specified list.
Key words are allocated according to the 'house-rules' applied to all journals distributed by a specific publisher.
Key words are determined by computer program at proof stage. Hartley and Kostoff (2003).
Table 2.4.3 Ten ways to produce effective key words and phrases
1 Use simple, specific noun clauses. For example, use variance estimation, not estimate of variance.
2 Avoid terms that are too common. Otherwise the number of 'hits' will be too large to manage.
3 Do not repeat key words from the title. These will be picked up anyway.
4 Avoid unnecessary prepositions, especially in and of. For example, use data quality rather than quality of data.
5 Avoid acronyms. Acronyms can fall out of favour and be puzzling to beginners and/or overseas readers.
6 Spell out Greek letters and avoid mathematical symbols. These are impractical for computer-based searches.
7 Include only the names of people if they are part of an established terminology, for example Skinner box, Poisson distribution.
8 Include, where applicable, mathematical or computer techniques, such as generating function, used to derive results, and a statistical philosophy or approach such as maximum likelihood or Bayes' theory.
9 Include alternative or inclusive terminology. If a concept is, or has been, known by different terminologies, use a key word that might help a user conducting a search across a time-span, or from outside your speciality. For example, the statistician's characteristic function is the mathematician's Fourier transform, and in some countries educational administration is educational management.

ranking) will soon make keywords and human-subject-classification a thing of the past'. Put more simply, this means that we will soon be able to input any words, pairs of words or phrases that we like from an article into a search engine and come up with related materials. Unfortunately, of course, this also means that the searcher is likely to be swamped with information — most of which will be inappropriate. If, for example, you use Google Advanced Scholar to search for 'key words', you will obtain approximately 800 citations.
All of this suggests that considerable thought needs to go into the selection of key words. Borrowing from Hughes (2005), it might be worth considering selecting words from a series of categories such as:
• discipline: for example economics, management, psychology, education
• method: for example experiment, case study, questionnaire, grounded theory
• data source: for example primary, secondary, tertiary students, senior citizens
• location: for example country, town, institution
• topic: for example academic writing.
