Data - the gold on the IoT
A milestone on the way to Smart City
"Data is the gold on the Internet of Things," says Dr. Thomas Usländer. And gold has to be mined. This is exactly what the expert for sensor data does. Smart Cities only work with data, at SMART CITY SOLUTIONS part of INTERGEO (17 - 19 September 2019, Stuttgart) Fraunhofer IOSB wants to show what's possible - as a conference partner. The platform is a possible milestone for Usländer, on 18 September sensor data and data management will be the focus in Stuttgart.
Dr. Thomas Usländer, Head of the Information Management and Control Technology Department at the Fraunhofer Institute for Optronics, Systems Engineering and Image Evaluation IOSB in Karlsruhe
Why are sensor data so important for smart cities?
Only those who have data can build a Smart City service on it - data about the environment and traffic, about residents and houses, about energy consumption for example. In cities, we have many sensors that deliver data. They don't always have to be measuring devices: Citizens can also contribute information, information from social networks can be sensor data. But sensor data must be processed in order to draw reliable conclusions. And this is often still lacking.
Why do many cities draw too few conclusions from sensor data?
It is often a question of cost and data reliability. Preparing the data is an enormous information technology effort. For example, because data is currently still available in a wide variety of formats. Cities often shy away from this effort and use only a few sensor data. This can be problematic, as can be seen from the current discussion about particulate matter measurement sites. We have known for a long time that reliable statements are only possible if we collect a lot of data. One example of this is traffic apps for smartphones, which can forecast traffic much better than looking at individual measuring points.
How can the solution look like?
Our goal at Fraunhofer IOSB is to increase efficiency through international standards. We have developed open source software: FROST® - Fraunhofer Open Source SensorThings API Server. FROST® implements the international standard "SensorThings API" of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). It makes it possible not only to exchange sensor data, but also to combine and evaluate them more easily. The software can be used free of charge and we want to present it to cities and municipalities. The SMART CITY SOLUTIONS can become a milestone for us, especially because of its connection to the geodesy fair INTERGEO. We want to enlarge the community there, create (professional) public, reach demand and decision makers as well as financiers. We want to advance the topic, because even small and medium-sized cities with a smaller budget want and need to become smart! For citizens and industry alike. Smart City is also an immense location factor.
There is a lack of concepts and strategies for most German cities to become a Smart City.

Do not lose hope just yet. Together with the technology continuing to evolve, you nevertheless got an additional possibilities. The internet. Yes, there are lots of legal types readily available on the web at no cost downloads. Or if you'd like, you could build your personal even without having appropriate law education. How? By utilizing legal forms application.
The standard grammatical rules in English are ordinarily the basis for appropriate building of sentences. Most nations pattern their language systems on these universally accepted rules, having said that, only a translator who has a direct practical experience with that certain culture can know the correct flow of words in forming such sentences.
1 Corinthians 6:910 (NKJV) Do you not understand that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Usually do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, no adulterers, no homosexuals nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioner will inherit the kingdom of God. (and I will add 1 to the list, the murders in the unborn of the world)
Software program for HR and Employee Manual Legal Forms in the event you own a business enterprise or works as HR Manager, this software is for you personally. You may use this to make handbooks for employees, contracts, arbitration, employee assessment forms, etc.
When you are a parent or grandparent denied access for your own flesh and blood, be fantastic to yourself as you heal in the unthinkable. As you might be to oneself, so will you be to other folks. And as you happen to be to other individuals, so will they be unto you.
Based on what you will need, these application goods should really be helpful. You will find nevertheless a great deal of application readily available on the net. Nonetheless, you should be conscious that you just should be careful when looking for software program on the internet. You understand, you will find some hoaxes available and you need to prevent these. But, if you know what and where to appear, you'll be able to even get the most effective bargains on legal types application on the web. You'll be able to obtain discounted or perhaps absolutely free software program for legal forms creation.
Now inform me sir, how can you expect to sow murder on one hand and get God's blessing on yet another? Or do you feel you could lead this good nation without having His aide? Specially understanding all the although that murder is contrary to Him. For He is a God of justice and life. Yes, the judgment of death is fitting for all those worthy by God's law of execution, but the most innocent of persons, the unborn, or new born kid, how is it that they are guilty from the death penalty? A single instance of those worth in the judgment of execution by law is our personal Supreme Court Justices who pollute God's law and get in touch with the murder in the innocent acceptable and legal. Yes, to this point they have escaped judgment, however they may have their day ahead of God Almighty, and if they don't cry out for the hope of your gospel in repentance, and admit their sin, and turn from their error, they'll by no means see His kingdom, but eternal judgment will be their lot, as it will probably be the great deal of all who really like wickedness.

Resonance Raman Spectroscopy
Many substances, especially colored ones, may absorb laser beam energy and generate strong fluorescence, which contaminates Raman spectrum. This is one of the central problems in Raman spectroscopy, especially when UV lasers are used. Nevertheless, it was discovered that instead of fluorescence, some types of colored molecules could produce strong Raman scattering at certain conditions. This effect was called Resonance Raman.
Resonance Raman Effect occurs when excitation laser frequency is chosen in such a way that it crosses the frequencies of electronic excited states and resonates with them. The intensity of Raman bands, which originate from electronic transitions between those states, are enhanced three-to-five orders of magnitude. Not all the bands of spontaneous Raman spectrum are enhanced. The so-called chromophoric group responsible for the molecules' coloration experiences the highest level of enhancement because the chromophoric group normally has the highest level of light absorption.
The highest intensity of Resonance Raman signal is obtained when laser frequency equals the first of the second electronic excited state (figure below). Therefore, tunable lasers are the most appropriate choice. But even when the frequency of the laser does not exactly match the desired electronic excited states, impressive enhancement of Raman signal occurs.

Paul writes – Jonny Baker recently pointed out that +Graham Cray (UK) has a very good,and recently published new booklet on leadership in the Grove series. Additionally a number of you will appreciate +Graham Cray (UK) is in NZ at present. Previously mentioned on this blog, here. He's just been to Christchurch, and is now in the Diocese of Wellington.
He has a public session session on tomorrow, and if mission, new forms of church etc is a subject dear to your heart I'd really encourage you to go and listen to him.
And so with Graham's visit to these shores in mind, I was struck by this comment by Peter Carrell – more on Peter in a minute!
"…Here in Christchurch we are appreciating very much the lessons being learned from England re Fresh Expressions of church from the acknowledged master, Bishop Graham Cray. I will try to say more over the weekend about his pearls of wisdom, but suffice for now to note the wonderful way in which everything he says is grounded in theology, centered on Jesus Christ, and imbued with testimony of gospel transformation of people…"
Anglical Priest and Director of Education at Theology House, Diocese of Christchurch, Peter Carrell wrote a brief reflection on the Christchurch leg of Graham's NZ trip here.
However, I wanted to ask him some additional questions… to dig a little more deeply. My questions – only three of them (although they are "big" questions) – are shown below, and Peter's responses are in bold blue text.
I'm grateful to Peter for responding to my questions as at the time of asking him he was on holiday.
Bishop Graham Cray (UK) was in Christchurch (8-10th July 2010) at the invitation of the Anglican Diocese of Christchurch. I wonder if you could highlight what you took as the most significant and/or relevant themes that he spoke to...? Clearly something is stirring if he was invited.
The most significant themes were the mission of God (the mission has a church rather than the church has a mission; God is a missionary God), the changing nature of the culture in which we seek to join with the mission of God, and the new ways in which community is taking place in Western society (especially community as gathering around interest rather than place). What is stirring in the Diocese of Christchurch is recognition that a considerable number of people are not 'in church' as currently configured, combined with some experimentation with Fresh Expression of church, allied with a renewed determination to engage in Christ-centred mission to the people of Canterbury and South Westland.
How might those themes be heard (and thus begin to be contextualised) in our own context of Aotearoa New Zealand, both as questions and as opportunities for local church communities? For our Anglican dioceses? Where do you, and others you were in conversation with, sense the invitation(s) of the Spirit might be discerned in broad terms?
I think it is too early to tell how these themes might
be heard in our own context. We need some time to reflect on what +Graham Cray
shared with us, including the contextual factors that have assisted Fresh
Expression to get going in England, but which may not be present in our
context. For the Diocese of Christchurch we also need to work out how we engage
the whole of the Diocese in these reflections as some parts of the Diocese were
not well represented at the +Cray events. Questions which I believe that those
present to hear +Graham will be engaging with include asking what the Spirit is
saying to us, and what we discern in our communities. +Cray took great pains to
stress that the key moves in establishing Fresh Expressions were listening (to
the Spirit, to those around us, to Fresh Expressions elsewhere) before
planting, and taking care not to clone. I believe that as this listening is
done we will recognise that a number of Fresh Expressions are already in our
midst (e.g. Korean congregations for Korean, new forms of Pentecostal churches,
diverse ministries among students). I suggest we will also have a new courage
to review what we are doing which is essentially 'traditional' (whether
Anglican, Presbyterian Methodist, etc), asking the question, 'Do we think
continuing this form will ever draw new people?' If the answer is negative,
this need not mean shutting down these forms of being church (+Cray was careful
to say that the opposite of Fresh Expressions is not Stale Expressions), but it
might now mean a bolder, more committed determination to work out what Fresh
Expression of church we must work on.
Some key personnel from the Presbyterian and Methodist churches were present with us in Christchurch. Conversations between Anglicans, Presbyterians and Methodists will continue as a result of these meetings. Where such conversations (and the internal ones within each denomination) end is up to the Spirit. My personal sense is that we may be able to say in twenty years time that Fresh Expressions in Aotearoa New Zealand took a leap forward in 2010. But that is my personal sense, not a reflection on the discernment of others.
While appreciating that +Graham emphasised, and you've noted above, that we can't "clone" what is happening in the UK and import it to NZ, I wonder what you might imagine as the next steps for Anglicans in New Zealand if we are to move from listening (to the likes of +Graham Cray et al) to actually beginning the hard work of forming a contextual missional imagination within the Anglican denomination and of beginning to experiment missionally as we discern God's invitations to join in on God's missional and redemptive work in our land...?
I think the 'hard work of forming a contextual missional imagination within the Anglican denomination etc' is already beginning in small ways, largely among youth, young adults, and young families. I find it hard to see that post-Cray moves from listening to action would be among groups of people different to these three. The next steps for Anglicans always involve bishops as, ultimately, new work needs authorising. I think our current generation of bishops are "up for it", and they are very ably supported by keen ministry/mission educators. And lots of vicars and lay leaders are very keen to work with God in mission. We have a wide open door in front of us ...

I am bound.
By what, I cannot tell
But it will not let me go.
I fight against it
But the struggle only suffocates me.
I cannot escape these bandages,
I am weighed down.
A feeling of total helplessness has descended over me
And taken control.
Nothing I do will ease the pain.

August 15 -- Canrim Development Pte Ltd. is a resource development company established by a team with a successful Mongolian business track record, operating in the Mongolian resources sector since 1997. Designed as a vehicle to re-enter the Mongolian resource industry in early 2014, Canrim is positioning for resurgence in minerals exploration activity in the country.
In mineral exploration the sharpest growth in the value of a grassroots property occurs when the first evidence of substantial mineralization (preferably metallic) with potential economic value is discovered on or near the property. This is the focus of Canrim, developing a portfolio of highly prospective grassroots properties on which international third parties can partner with the company.
Since the fall of 2013 Mongolia has realized the need to liberalize its economy in order to re-encourage foreign direct investment (FDI) after protectionist policies in strategic sectors were implemented in 2012. This has seen a re-drafting of the investment law, which now treats foreign and domestic investors equally, amendments to the petroleum and minerals law, whereby a more than 5-year moratorium on the issuance of exploration licenses was lifted as the life of licenses was simultaneously extended from nine to twelve years.
On January 26, 2015 the Government of Mongolia officially re-opened the application process for minerals exploration licenses. And to date Canrim has successfully applied for eleven licenses, receiving certificates for seven. The seven issued licenses, all in western Mongolia, are known as Altai, Burgast, Burkhant, Khonkhor, Khundii, Maanit and Seruun. Additionally, license applications for three additional areas (Khuren morit, Sharga morit and Khar morit) in southern Mongolia are being processed.
Canrim's strategy for license acquisition from the Government and third parties is predicated on leveraging management's geological archive from previous exploration activities, as well as geological databases from the Minerals Resource Authority of Mongolia (MRAM). This approach has led Canrim to focus on regions with known mineralization, but which have received little or no attention in the past.
On the company's 2015 field season, during May and June six Canrim geologists visited sixteen active mineral exploration licenses (seven held by subsidiaries of Canrim and nine by companies with whom Canrim has developed strong relationships) in western and northwestern Mongolia. The purpose of this field trip was to carry out first-pass reconnaissance level prospecting for evidence of potential economic mineralization. The targeted areas included those with types of rock alteration known to be favorable for metallic mineralization as well as those with particular geochemical and geophysical anomalies, while additional areas were prospected if particular rock exposures attracted the team's attention while on site.
Upon completion of field work, 221 rock and rock chip samples were submitted to the Ulaanbaatar facilities of ALS Laboratories for multi-element analysis. Of the 221 samples, 148 were collected from six of the Canrim properties and 73 were taken from six of the non-Canrim properties.

Ready to make the move to UBbox, but dealing with many, or large, files? We can help.
UBbox has unlimited secure storage, built-in collaboration and automatically backs up your files. But if your department already has a shared space with lots of files, making the switch can be a daunting prospect.
Your IT support staff can help you with the technical aspects of the file transfer, as well as any other UBbox questions you might have.
Or, if you are tech-savvy, you can do it yourself using an FTP client.
An FTP (file transfer protocol) client is a program that connects your computer to UBbox specifically for the purpose of file transfers. In most cases, uploading files to UBbox using a Web browser or Box Drive is fine. But an FTP client can transfer a large number of files to UBbox quickly.
Before you can transfer files to UBbox using FTP, you'll need to create a unique password in UBbox for this process. This password is only for external applications that connect to UBbox—you'll still log into UBbox using the same UBITName and password that you usually use.
To create this unique password, you'll need to do the following:
There are many different FTP programs for both Windows and Mac, and they all work similarly. UBIT recommends using WinSCP for Windows, and Cyberduck for Mac. You may need to request help from your IT support staff to install these programs if you're working on a UB-owned device, because they may require administrative access.
For the best results, you'll want to make one change in the preferences for your FTP program—somewhere there should be a setting for 'Maximum simultaneous transfers.' For optimal speeds, this should be set to 8.
Now, enter the necessary information for your FTP program to connect to UBbox:
After a few moments, you should be connected to your UBbox account.
Once you're connected, most FTP clients show the location you're connected to—in this case, UBbox—on the right, and your other file systems on the left.
From here, you can find any files you want to upload to UBbox on the left, then click and drag them over to the right side to upload them. You should see a list of upcoming transfers and an indicator of your progress.
For help with UBbox and other UBIT services, contact the UBIT Help Center online at buffalo.edu/ubit/help, or call 716-645-3542.

GT models are executable, and with their natural model of concurrency they may be more suitable for programming concurrent systems (e.g., based on multicore/multiprocessor/distributed architectures) than traditional programming languages.
To refine the questions above, I can see several ways to develop such a theme. One could target (1) a specific hardware platform, (2) a programming langauge known to compile to one or more platforms of interest, or (3) develop a conceptual model of a platform to address the relevant research questions without committing to a particular technology.
More immediately, what are the multicore/multiprocessor/distributed architectures that are relevant an challenging today, and which woudl make interesting targets?

Mass killer Anders Behring Breivik has complained of degrading conditions in prison and microwave meals "worse than waterboarding" as part of a legal bid against the Norwegian government.
Breivik, a right-wing extremist who killed 77 people in a bombing and shooting rampage in 2011, this week launched a lawsuit arguing that Norway had violated his human rights.
The case, in which Breivik argues he is the victim of inhumane and degrading treatment in violation of the European Convention on Human Rights, is being heard in the gym hall of Skien prison, where he is being held, in southern Norway.
Breivik claimed the state had been trying to "kill" him for five years by keeping him isolated in a special three-room cell, with daily contact only with prison staff and professionals.
As part of his testimony, Breivik read out a long written statement about his conditions, during which he complained about "bothersome and offensive" strip searches and microwaved prison meals.
The state has defended his conditions, claiming they are appropriate for a dangerous fanatic.
It was revealed yesterday Breivik had his own treadmill, PlayStation, spin bicycle and reclinable chair with integrated foot stool, and took part in the prison's Christmas gingerbread-house baking contest.
Lawyers for the government had said he also received newspapers, magazines, books, jigsaw puzzles, watched DVDs and listened to music on a Discman.
The state also denied violating Breivik's human rights and said he had turned down offers to play chess with prison volunteers or bandy, a type of indoor hockey, with prison guards.
Defending the state, attorney Adele Matheson Mestad argued that of the 4000 letters received and sent by Breivik, only 15 percent of them had been stopped by prison authorities.
She said Breivik was trying to correspond with known Nazi sympathisers.
Breivik did not today repeat a Nazi salute he made at the start of the four-day hearing, which had earned him a rebuke from judge Helen Andenaes Sekulic, though he did take the stand pledging to fight "to the death" for Nazism.
Norwegian authorities have refused to televise his testimony in order to prevent him sending coded messages to supporters and out of respect for survivors of his killing spree and victims' families.

text: Court strikes out forgery charge against co-founder of Institute of Strategic Management Posted by: Demola Abimboye July 21, 2019 Leave a comment A Federal High Court in Lagos has struck out the three count charge of forgery preferred against the co-founder of Institute of Strategic Management Nigeria Limited, Professor Joseph Mba due to lack of diligent prosecution. On 22 December 2015, Chief Superintendent of Police, Effiong Asuquo from the Special Fraud Unit of the Nigeria Police Force, Ikoyi, filed three count charge before the court accusing Professor Mba for stating that the name of INSTITUTE OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT NIGERIA LTD/GTE has been changed to INSTITUTE OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT which document was purportedly signed by him and one Dr Austin Uwandulu, knowing same to be fake, with intent that it may be acted upon as genuine to the prejudice of the company. The police officer alleged further that Professor Mba forged special resolution of an extra ordinary general meeting of the institute in which meeting he stated that the following persons were appointed Directors of the company: Apostle Dr. Hayford Ikpommosa Alile, Mazi Dr Sam Ohuabunwa, Major General Abduimalik Halilu Giwa rtd, and Dr Austin Izagbo which document was purportedly signed by him and one Barrister Samuel Ojo knowing same to be false with intent that it may be acted upon as genuine. He pleaded not guilty. Consequently he was granted bail while the case was adjourned for trial. During the trial the Police prosecutor called one witness, and after the first witness abandoned the case. On 28 May 2019 the presiding Judge, Ayokunle Faji, ordered that hearing notice be served on the prosecution due to their several absence from court proceedings. The same day, Professor Mba's lawyer, Barrister Ike Uko wrote to remind the prosecution in this regard. On the next adjourned day neither the prosecution nor witnesses were in court. Consequently after hearing Barrister Uko appearing for Professor Mba informing the court that they have complied with the order of the court on service of hearing notice on the prosecution pursuant to which a counsel from the prosecution appeared and undertook to notify counsel on the record but neither the Prosecutor nor the witness was present in court and urged the court to strike out the charge. Justice Faji said: "The prosecution and witness being absent for five adjournments, it is hereby ordered as follows: That this charge is accordingly hereby struck out! 2019-07-21 Demola Abimboye

Love it
excellent product
Day time cream as good as the night one I got earlier!!
Quick delivery,lovely cream
Love this cream!!
I bought few products from the caviar line as I wanted to try some clean skincare that doesn't contain any micro-plastic, silicones and other nasties like your average drugstore brands. The creams and serum have a very pleasant texture and smell, sink right into the skin and do not leave a greasy film. I've been using them only for a week but my skin already feels more soft and supple. The day cream is also perfect for under the makeup, highly recommend.

~This is the third day of my incarceration in a maximum-security garden center. The florist glares at me from behind a bouquet of thorny roses, and she thinks I'm the dangerous one.
I think we're both the same, but she'd disagree. She cuts off the stems of plants. I cut off their heads. They look better that way.
If only I didn't get caught beheading a purple begonia in my neighbor's front yard. I didn't see the camera hidden inside a Lawn Gnome. I never liked Lawn Gnomes, with their evil little grins and pointy hats.
At least I had the pleasure of seeing the begonia's head fall before they took me away. Begonias are smug, gnarly-looking things. I'd do it all over again.
The plant police picked me up just a little past noon while I plotted my next crime, kidnapping an Orchid from a greenhouse down the street. The ransom money would have paid for an electric hedge cutter I had been saving up to buy. Damn Lawn Gnome!
They came for me while I stood in the back of my house holding a plastic bag and a roll of duct tape. They were dressed in green jumpsuits and drove a golf cart overrun with vines. They dropped a net over my head and then walked me down the driveway. As the wind picked up, I heard a broken shutter bang against the house. It reminded me of snare drums at an execution.
The horticultural shrink asked me why I enjoyed killing plants, although, she had her own theory. She thought it had something to do with the first time I got poison Ivy. I scratched for days and had to go to school covered with calamine lotion. The kids called me pinko the clown and threw erasers at me. But the shrink was wrong. They always dig too deep into the dirt for answers and just end up with mud.
It was simpler than that – green Jell-O in fact. I was forced to eat the stuff when I was a kid. My mother said that it was good for me because it was green like the grass. Just looking at the stuff made me retch. But she used to make me eat it any way, while she knelt at the edge of the garden shoving plants into the dirt.
So, I gagged on green Jell-O, as she buried plants in the ground, leaving their perky little heads above soil pointed toward the sun, while I faced downward upchucking Jell-O into a dark empty pot.
That's why I did it, because of the green Jell-O and all the hype about photosynthesis, which has nothing to do with cameras and everything to do with air. I'd rather suffocate while taking pictures of decaying plant corpses, with tangled roots and shriveled flowers, laying in the back lot of an abandoned nursery.
But that's a conversation for another day with the horticultural shrink. What's the point any way? They'll never rehabilitate me. Plants are dirty green things and should never see the light of day. They should stay buried beneath the ground in the dark where they belong along with green Jell-O.

Dengue death and outbreak confirmed in Tonga
Tonga has declared a dengue outbreak following the death of a New Zealand girl in the country last week.
The 12-year-old had been visiting family in Tonga over the Christmas holidays.
The chief executive of Tonga's Ministry of Health said there were 19 confirmed cases of dengue in the country, all on the main island Tonga'tapu.
Siale 'Akau'ola said the Pacific health surveillance network had been notified of the outbreak and would in turn advise regional governments.
According to Dr 'Akau'ola, the focus in Tonga was on eradication of mosquito breeding grounds and containment of the disease.
"What we are doing immediately at the moment is distributing mosquito nets, providing insect repellent, especially for homes where we have cases," he said.
"We provide the families with insect repellents. The ministry tries to buy it, the Red Cross providing the bed nets."
Siale 'Akau'ola said it was important that infected people use mosquito nets vigilantly so as to avoid insects biting them and spreading the illness to others.

Yes, you can run both the HERO6 Black and HERO7 Black with external power. Same with the HERO5 Black and HERO (2018). If you're powering the camera from an external source via the USB-C cable, whether that's a wall adapter, USB powerbrick, computer, or car adapter, you can remove the internal battery and run the camera via external power. The camera will continue to work normally.
An advantage of leaving the internal battery in place is as a safety net in case the external power stops flowing. Without the internal battery, the moment that the AC power stops, the camera will turn off. It won't turn back on automatically when the power source is restored. With the internal battery installed, it will switch over seamlessly. But there are times where removing the battery might be a better option, especially for very long-term shooting such as timelapse.
External Power Indicator
Usually, when you connect external power you'll get the charging battery indicator. Without any internal battery to charge, though, there's a different icon on the front screen. It looks like this:
On the HERO5 Black, HERO (2018), and HERO6 Black, you get the same icon in the top right-hand corner of the back screen as well. On the HERO7 Black, you get a small "No Batt" message next to a red battery icon with a cross in it.

Mission & History
Swift School prepares students with dyslexia and related language-based learning differences to be successful in life.
Swift's Five-Point Promise
1. Students are embraced for who they are and the potential they possess.
2. Dyslexia is viewed through the lens of leading-edge brain-science and seen as a brain-type with great advantages.
3. Teachers use multi-sensory methods, customized to each student's learning style and proven to achieve success with dyslexia.
4. Swift is a collaborative community of nurturing teachers, therapists and families working together to guide each student's journey.
5. Students emerge as academically prepared and confident individuals, enthusiastic about learning and skilled in self-advocacy.
A Passion for Dyslexic Students
Gail Swift, a talented, passionate educator of dyslexic students founded Swift School in 1998 after a long teaching career at the Schenck School in Atlanta. Gail was encouraged to start the school by Josie Redwine, an adoption lawyer and mother of a dyslexic daughter who became Gail's partner in the enterprise.
Swift School began modestly with Gail teaching five students in a rented basement room in a church in Marietta. While Gail taught, Josie worked to expand enrollment and formed the corporate structure that Swift operates by today.
Word spread about what this amazing school was doing and other teachers and students came to join Gail. The school grew quickly—from five students in 1998-99 to eight in 1999-2000, 10 in 2000-2001, and 20 in 2001-2002. Today, 20 years after its founding, Swift School serves approximately 200 students annually.
Focused on the Whole Child
Gail's philosophy was simple—build a school for teaching students with dyslexia and language learning differences that addressed the whole child. She envisioned a school with a nurturing learning environment, a compassionate teaching style, small class sizes and proven instructional techniques including Orton-Gillingham. As a result of this approach, the school experienced sustained and steady growth educating dyslexic students.
In 2006, Swift School relocated to its current location in Roswell. The move provided room for expanded programming and the needed space to keep pace with the growing numbers of students Swift School was serving.
Strengths-Based Approach
From its founding, Swift School has been dedicated to the mission of teaching students with dyslexia and language-based learning differences. The educational philosophy that supports this mission is programming that encourages the development of the whole child – academically, socially, emotionally, and physically. This holistic approach includes a comprehensive learning environment that systematically addresses a student's individual language needs within a rich and stimulating academic program which seeks to identify and develop strengths.
Swift School currently serves approximately 200 students and includes both a lower and middle division. Swift's tremendous growth over the past two decades stems from both an increased awareness of dyslexia, which affects up to 20% of students and is the most common language-related learning difference, as well as an increased awareness of how a school solely dedicated to teaching students with this difference can improve academic outcomes. More is known about dyslexia and the dyslexic student's educational needs than ever before. Current research points not to just the weaknesses but also the incredible strengths of the dyslexic mind. Dyslexia is not a deficit, but in many ways, can be an advantage in thinking.
"We know that many of the world's greatest thinkers are dyslexics; we also know school was not easy for most of them." - Gail Swift
Swift educators understand and appreciate the struggles and challenges of dyslexia. They are trained to unlock the mysteries of language while also recognizing the unique strengths of the dyslexic mind. At Swift, students gain the keys to unlock language, build courage, and are prepared for the next step in their educational journey. Swift School is a joyful place where courage and success are crucial outcomes.
Gail Swift's legacy is seen daily in the smiling faces of Swift's students.

California legislation to crack down on "snake oil" stem cell clinics has stalled after a cost of $100,000 was assigned to the measure, which is backed by the state's stem cell research program.
The bill was sent last week to a "suspense" file, which holds fiscal legislation while lawmakers juggle priorities in the Golden State's yet-to-be-approved, $213 billion budget.
If all goes well, the measure could clear the Assembly Appropriations Committee in the next month or so and be sent to the floor of the Assembly. It would then go to the Senate for more committee hearings and a Senate floor vote.
No public opposition has yet surfaced to the measure (AB617), authored by Assemblyman Kevin Mullen, D-San Mateo. It would not take effect any earlier than 2020.
The bill would require California's Medical Board to move on the clinics, which have proliferated across the country in recent years. California has more than 100, according to the latest estimates.
The clinics charge thousands of dollars for treatments using substances that they describe as stem cells. However, in virtually all cases, the treatments have not been tested scientifically. Some have led to serious injuries.
The state Medical board would be required to create a stem cell advisory group by February 2020 that would make recommendations by July 2020 for regulation of the dubious clinics.
The new group would have nine members. Three would be appointed by the California stem cell agency, three by state Medical Board, two by the state osteopathic medical board and one by the state nursing board.
The group could also recommend emergency regulations that could be adopted by the state Medical Board with a 90 day notice.
Last week, a committee of directors of the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM), as the stem cell agency is formally known, endorsed the bill. The full board is expected to ratify that endorsement on Thursday. An analysis prepared by the legislative staff already lists CIRM as a supporter.

Sri Lanka's palm-fringed southern coast is the most traditional and atmospheric corner of the island. Although development has gathered pace here in recent years, it's still a predominantly rural region, most of whose inhabitants earn a living from coconut cultivation, rice farming and in-shore fishing.
Galle, the island's fourth city, is the main hub and deserves at least a day or two to explore its charismatic 17th fort, jutting into the bay beyond Sri Lanka's most famous cricket ground. Behind the citadel's belt of red laterite bastions is hidden an enclave of UNESCO-listed, colonial-era villas and whitewashed churches, little changed in centuries save for a clutch of pretty boutique hotels, designer shops and cafés.
Further along the coast lie some of our favourite hideaways in Asia, where you can soak up the languid tropical weather, marvel at the sublime coastal landscapes and take in some of the exuberant Sinhalese festivals for which this predominantly Buddhist region is renowned.
Weather on Sri Lanka's South Coast
The wettest period along the south coast is between May and September. For sun worshippers and beach lovers, the best months are February and March.

Note: This is Part 2 of a two-part series. For Part 1, click here.
'Their Country'?
Yet, what country is he talking about? The so-called "Palestinians" did not have their own country. The area he is referring to was under the British Mandate and was turned over to the U.N. who voted to partition an Arab and Jewish state, which the Arab nations rejected. The "Palestinians" never had "their own country," to return to and "liberate." They could have had one if they accepted the U.N. partition of two states for two peoples. Had they done so the past seven decades might have been peaceful. However, hatred of the Jews and refusal to accept the existence of a neighboring Jewish state outweighed the gift of having their own state. This abhorrent fact renders Arafat's statement about the existence of "their country" as a fabrication, or "fake news."
Plus, Jews have had a constant presence in this land dating back over 3,000 years. Moreover, since they were forced to fight multiple defensive wars ('48, '67, '73), international law allows them to claim land they conquered, which gives them the legal right to build communities.

Actual Refugees
While a fabricated narrative about so-called "Palestinian refugees" has thrived for more than half a century, how much publicity has there been about the actual refugees surrounding the modern rebirth of Israel? Let me explain.
Prior to 1948, roughly 850,000 Jews lived in Arab countries of the Middle East and North Africa. When it became clear the Jewish people would regain their biblical homeland virtually all the Jews in these Arab countries were forced to leave. Why? Had they committed any crime? No. They had been living peacefully (as second-class citizens in these Muslim countries) for multiple generations.
The rebirth of Israel changed their fate forever. Many were jailed, some beaten and killed. Their homes, land, bank accounts and possessions were confiscated. Many thousands were forced to leave hastily with just what they could carry. These are true refugees. Today, hardly any Jews remain in those Arab countries. Israel absorbed roughly 80 percent of them. Yet, how much publicity has there been about this?
After decades of neglecting the issue Israel finally decided the Jewish refugees required appropriate consideration. In October 2012, a meeting took place at the U.N. over the vehement objection of Arab members. The end result was that going forward Israel would require the issue of Jewish refugees to be part of any formal peace agreement.
The World Has Been Duped
Bob Dylan once said, "Don't ask me nuthin' about nuthin,' I just might tell ya the truth." It's time for the hard truth. The entire premise on which the PLO was founded is a fabrication. There was never a sovereign nation called "Palestine," and there is no ethnic "Palestinian" people. What is correct is there were Arabs of various ethnic origins living together with Jews in an area which was under the control of the British. Arafat himself, for example, was a transplanted Egyptian Arab, not a "Palestinian."
Part of the challenge of this unending conflict is separating fact from fiction. Suggesting the "Palestinians" have the right to "liberate their country" assumes they had one.
They don't and never did.
This cannot be overstated. Any reference otherwise is pure fabrication. However, this has not stopped them from spreading outright lies and others from buying into it. This includes defining the land they claim as "occupied Palestinian territory," all the while blaming Israel as the cause for a lack of peace.
The charters of all the "Palestinian" terror groups, including Fatah, which means "conquest" (and is the party of Mahmoud Abbas), don't merely speak of self-determination. Each charter places equal weight, if not more, on the destruction of the Jewish state of Israel through armed struggle, and replacing it with one "Palestinian" state. Take a look at their official emblem. Notice one green state. Green is the official color of Islam. Also notice the guns and hand grenade? Their goal is to violently eliminate the world's only Jewish country and replace it with another Muslim dominated country. This would bring the total of said countries to 23 in the Middle East, while the Jews would have none, and be relegated to live under Muslim rule in what used to be their own country.
How fair is that?
If the community of nations decides to reward those who seek Israel's destruction with nationhood without requiring them to alter their charters, renounce terror and recognize the Jewish state of Israel, it will be a black mark on humanity. Unfortunately, there is no indication the "Palestinians" will be required to do any of this.
Finally, how can believers support a fabricated narrative, especially if the intent is to destroy God's Holy Land, along with His Chosen people and replace it with a country populated by adherents to a faith that worships a different God? Their holy book, the Quran, requires the destruction of both Jews and Christians. For believers to stand with such people and such goals is hypocritical.

SENECA — "The Last Signal" is a new documentary in the final stages of production. It tells the story of Raymond "De Vere" Johnson and John Heimsoth, World War II veterans who both served in the Navy aboard LST-218. Johnson, 92, of Illinois and a signal man during his time in service, thought he was the last surviving crew member of the ship constructed at the Seneca Prairie Shipyard in Seneca, Ill. His daughter sought to prove him wrong.
Johnson's daughter, Cheryl, posted on Facebook seeking other veterans of the ship. Within weeks, the post had more than a million hits and had been shared worldwide. It also brought contact with Heimsoth, 91, of Stover, Mo. "The Last Signal" is a documentary which captures their reunion and shares their story, along with the history of the small town Illinois shipyard.
"When we came to Seneca to film and highlight the community's contribution to the war effort, I was amazed at how well the community has kept its history alive and continues to celebrate its contribution to one of the most historic times in our nation's history," said producer Kyle Olson.
After the U.S. entered the war, defense manufacturing soon sky-rocketed. The coastal shipyards were handling the large vessels such as aircraft carriers, battleships and destroyers, but the government looked inland for the production of smaller craft such as the LST, or Landing Ship Tank.
Situated on 200 acres on the bank of the Illinois River and on a bed of solid sandstone which could handle the 5,500 ton weight of the ships, the Seneca Prairie Shipyard was soon receiving accolades for its production rate.
Seneca was originally founded as a watering stop for the railroad. With approximately 1,200 residents at the beginning of the war, thousands of people relocated to the area with the arrival of the shipyard. This also brought about additional housing, better roads, utilities, sewer system and an expanded school. Approximately 27,000 people worked at the yard during World War II.
According to the Seneca Shipyard Days website, 16 different trades were required to construct each of the 157 LSTs built. Skilled workers earned $1.20 an hour and laborers received .83 an hour. There were two, nine-hour shifts per day, six days a week. The yard employed 11,000 people when fully staffed.
The first LST built in Seneca took six months and 880,000 man-hours to construct because the shipyard was still being constructed. The Chicago Bridge and Iron Co., owners of the shipyard, planned on one LST a week once everything was in place, but they were soon building seven a month with only 280,000 man-hours invested per ship. This production rate won the company and itsworkers the coveted Army-Navy "E" award, presented to companies and workers for excellence in war production.
Once construction was complete, the ships were launched sideways into the Illinois River from one of the 15 berths that ran parallel to the river. Each ship had a female sponsor present at the launch, and as tradition goes, she broke a bottle of champagne over the bow. The shipyard kept track of the champagne used at the launches, and by the war's end, 39 gallons of champagne had been spent.
The flat-bottomed ships were capable of transporting troops, tanks and supplies, and of delivering them directly onto the beach through two large doors in the hull. Because of their travel into heavy combat areas, the 327-foot-long LSTs weren't expected to survive long, and few were given traditional names. LST-218 earned four battle stars before being decommissioned.
Filming has been completed on the documentary, but funding is needed to complete the post-production work so the film can be released to a large viewing audience. The producers need to raise at least $5,000. Donations are tax-deductible and can be made through Hatchfund at www.hatchfund.org/project/the_last_signal.
"Being able to capture the story of these two veterans who served together on this ship has been an honor. This is a story that needs to be shared with a mass audience. My hope is that contributions will be made to our Hatchfund effort, so we can get this documentary out into the world," said Olson.
