Stannard expecting big things of Aussie Sevens rookies
The way Sevens is played has changed quite a bit since James Stannard had his first taste of the code, back in 2010.
Speaking 24 hours before the Australian Men's Sevens side kick off their the 2017/18 World Series against Wales, Stannard recalled a very different style of play to what he expects from the Welsh.
"Every country is a bit different in the way they've changed," Stannard said.
"The sport I played back in 2010, compared to now, back then there was a lot of pull out sort of rugby - not much contact.
"Now there is a lot of contact and I think the game is evolving."Teams are adjusting to the way the game is evolving."
That means the Australians can't take Wales and Russia lightly - despite their preseason success - with a tough pool finale against Fiji the final task on Friday.
"Wales are always tough, they got us last year in the semi and as the years go on, there are no easy games anymore.
"Finishing the day with Fiji - the Olympic champions - we've got quite a tough pool."
As the team veteran, Stannard has welcomed the inclusion of rookies Maurice Longbottom and Ben O'Donnell - the pair shaping as two bright stars in the Aussie Sevens fold.
"They have fitted in really well," he said."Young guys like Maurice Longbottom have played a lot of exciting football over the last four tournaments and earned himself a spot and a debut for this World Series in Dubai.
"They're great assets to the team and I'm looking forward to seeing them play."
Lachie Anderson is quickly becoming one of the more integral parts of the Aussie Sevens unit and he said preseason success will count for nothing if the team don't push for the Cup in Dubai.
"We have had a bit of preseason success which gives us a lot of confidence first up but more importantly it gives us some good momentum coming into Dubai for the opening of the season," he said.
"The more frequently you can be playing footy, the better you are going to be as a team.
"We have had some success and we are excited about that but we are under no illusion that we have got to back that up this weekend in Dubai."
The Australian Men's Sevens kick off their Dubai Sevens campaign on Friday, broadcast LIVE on FOX SPORTS.

What is the cost to register at the door?
At-door registration rates are available on our Registration page.
What are the hours of the convention? When/where can I pick up my badge?
You can find the convention hours, pre-registration check-in hours, and at-door registration hours on the Convention Hours page.
Pre-registration check-in and at-door registration take place in the Vine Street Lobby of the Convention Center, on the bottom floor.
You will need your Driver's License, Student ID, or another type of photo identification to receive your badge.
Where can I park at the convention center, and how do I get the reduced parking rate?
Zenkaikon has negotiated a reduced rate for parking in the garage attached to the Convention Center for $8.00 per day. If you are a guest at the Lancaster Marriott at Penn Square, this reduced parking fee will be automatically added to your hotel room. If you are not staying at this hotel but parking in the garage, there will be vouchers available for you to pick up to receive the reduced parking rate. These vouchers are valid at the attached garage, as well as any parking garage owned by the Lancaster Parking Authority.
Parking vouchers are available at the Zenkaikon Information Desk on the 2nd floor of the convention. To use the parking voucher, as you go to pay as you leave the garage:
- Insert the original parking ticket into the machine first
- Check the displayed price before proceeding (parking for a couple of hours is often cheaper than the discounted day rate)
- Insert the discount voucher second - the price will change to the $8/day flat rate

Why do I need an AZPDES Industrial Stormwater Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP)?
Industrial stormwater permitting is an important part of the Clean Water Act to ensure surface water protection by requiring certain industrial activities to obtain permit coverage to discharge stormwater (to waters of the U.S., or WOTUS). Unlike wastewater that is treated before being discharged to WOTUS, stormwater does not get treated. The stormwater program relies on best management practices to minimize pollutants in stormwater discharges. ADEQ issues the industrial stormwater MSGP in Arizona. The MSGP identifies 29 different sectors that are subject to permitting for industrial stormwater discharges to WOTUS | View Sector List >
A facility must have permit coverage if an industrial activity falls within one of the sectors and will discharge stormwater to a WOTUS. If industrial stormwater will not discharge to WOTUS, either directly or by way of a conveyance (such as a street, ditch, etc.), stormwater permit coverage is not required | Learn More by Visiting No Discharge Certificate FAQs >
2019 MSGPs
The 2019 MSGPs replace ADEQ's 2010 Non-Mining and Mining MSGPs in accordance with the following schedule:
- 2019 MSGPs issued May 15, 2019.
- 2019 MSGPs became effective on Jan. 1, 2020.
- Existing permittees (those who have coverage under the 2010 permit(s)) have between Jan. 1, 2020, and Feb. 28, 2020, to submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) using myDEQ.
- A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) must be developed by the time the NOI is submitted. Existing permittees are encouraged to update their current SWPPP to comply with the 2019 MSGP requirements, rather than developing a new SWPPP.
- Prior to Jan. 1, 2020, the following process applies:
- Existing permittees must continue to comply with their coverage under 2010 MSGP (e.g., monitoring, reporting, inspections, etc.).
- New and unpermitted facilities that are subject to industrial stormwater permitting must apply under 2010 MSGP for stormwater discharges, as required by the Clean Water Act, and federal and state law.

A weeks-long crackdown on suspected gang members by law enforcement led to almost 200 arrests in Hesperia.
Operation Desert Heat brought together members of the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, California Highway Patrol, San Bernardino County Probation and the California Department of Corrections and rehabilitation in a month-long effort to suppress gang violence in the Victor Valley.
The operation, which ended on Sunday, June 30, led to 1,203 arrests across the Victor Valley.
In Hesperia, 193 were arrested as part of the gang-sweep.
"We contacted 37 gang members, issued 96 traffic citations, issued four criminal citations," sheriff's department spokeswoman Arden Wiltshire said Thursday. "Picked up four parolees at large. That's a good thing, always a good thing."
Members of the task force served three search warrants, recovered a stolen vehicle, confiscated two illegal firearms and towed 25 cars in Hesperia as part of Operation Desert Heat.
Some of those picked up won't be coming back any time soon: In the Victor Valley, 92 suspects were placed on immigration holds.
"It's when their identity is questionable, so we turn them over to [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement]," Wiltshire said. "They make a determination of whether they're here legally or not."
According to a sheriff's department release, more than 50 parolees were returned to state prison. Robberies reported in the Victor Valley communities decreased by 41 percent from the same time period last year, reported carjackings decreased by 40 percent and vehicle thefts dropped by 19 percent.
And the operation's overall goal -- getting alleged gang members off the streets -- did just that.
"Altogether with this operation, not just Hesperia," Wiltshire said, "We contacted just under 100 and arrested 63 of them."
Beau Yarbrough can be reached at 956-7108 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Yay for troughs! Our new property is gopher heaven, so we're pretty excited about the troughs we bought to grow our veggies in.
Things to consider if you are considering trough gardening:
- HEAT – metal containers heat up pretty quick. This is GOOD news for heat-loving plants like tomatoes, and may bum out cool-weather plants like lettuces. Plant the cooler-weather plants in the center of the trough, with heat-loving annuals or perennials on the edges. Using troughs with tomatoes will allow you to plant them earlier.
- WATER – any container garden requires more attention to watering, from good drainage to more frequent checking on soil moisture. More on watering troughs later – they are perfectly set up for drip irrigation.
- SOIL – it's important to create a living eco-system in the trough, as it won't have direct access to the native soil underneath (troughs should be propped up on bricks to encourage drainage). Add compost, worms and natural mulch.
- PLACEMENT – think carefully before you fill your trough with dirt for the first time. They're heavy and hard to move once filled. Is this where you'll want your garden in a few years? To move a trough, you'll have to empty it, so plan carefully.
We're really looking forward to our new adventure in trough gardening – and will share what we learn here.
Happy gardening!

New Trailer for Prehistoric Thriller 'Alpha' About a Boy and His Wolf
by Alex Billington
June 14, 2018
Source: YouTube
"Leaders are born from survival." Whoa. Sony has released a new trailer for the movie Alpha, which was originally set for release in March but then delayed until August this year. We featured the first trailer for this last year, almost a year ago, but the studio freaked. This new trailer is much different - selling it more as an uplifting tale like one of those fun nature documentaries. Very interesting pivot. This adventure follows the story of Zeta, played by Kodi Smit-McPhee, a young man injured on a bison hunt left for dead. He befriends a lone wolf and together they figure out how to survive. The full cast includes Natassia Malthe, Leonor Varela, Jóhannes Haukur Jóhannesson, Mercedes de la Zerda, and Jens Hultén. I can't believe they're actually trying to sell this as the story of the first dog, that's some serious pandering. Oh well.
Here's the new official trailer (+ poster) for Albert Hughes' Alpha, direct from Uni's YouTube:
You can still watch the first trailers for Hughes' Alpha from last year here, to see more from this.
Europe, 20,000 years ago. While on his first hunt, an initiation to his tribe's most elite group, a young man, Zeta, is injured and left for dead after a bison hunt goes horribly wrong. Awaking to find himself broken, alone, and miles from his village – he must learn to survive and navigate the harsh and unforgiving wilderness. Reluctantly taming a lone wolf, Alpha, abandoned by its pack, the pair learn to rely on each other to hunt and become unlikely allies, enduring countless dangers and overwhelming odds in order to find their way home before the deadly winter arrives. Alpha is directed by American filmmaker Albert Hughes, of Menace II Society, Dead Presidents, From Hell (these three with his brother), and The Book of Eli previously. The screenplay is written by Dan Wiedenhaupt; based on a story by Albert Hughes. Sony will release Alpha in theaters everywhere starting August 17th at the end of this summer. Thoughts?

|Centre de danse Alésia
|DVD: Kamellia
- The Barefoot Princess, oriental bellydance
Film Simona Cocozza et Samantha Cito.
- Le Ventre de la Danse:
Parmi les cours de danse orientale proposés à Paris, celui donné par Kamellia est d'autant plus original que celle-ci est une Japonaise qui a quitté son éducation stricte pour se confronter à la danse du ventre, aux émirs et aux cabarets du Moyen-Orient, à la musique d'Oum Kalsoum et à une expression chorégraphique d'une totale liberté qu'elle nourrit avec une discipline de samouraï. Ce vécu, ce savoir, Kamellia sait nous le transmettre avec générosité.
Un film de Philippe Vallois, 62 minutes.
- Danse du Ventre à Jérusalem:
En Israël et à Jérusalem particulièrement, de plus en plus de femmes s'adonnent à la danse orientale et sont friandes de musiques égyptiennes. Malgré les tensions et les conflits politiques, elles n'hésitent pas à partager leur passion avec des musiciens arabes. On peut voir dans cette démarche beaucoup d'humanité et une volonté de paix future.

« Art is a spiritual path »…. « The barefoot Princess », by Simona Cocozza and Samantha Cito
Published the 15th June 2013 in "REVISTASALA1"
By Cosette Galindo
"The Barefoot Princess", a delightful and original non-fiction film was internationally introduced, among other modern works, during the seventh edition of the "Festival Granadino de Cines del Sur" (Granada Festival of Southern Movies, Spain).
This original and delightful film about the famous Korean Japanese dancer, Kamellia (Kameza in Japanese), manages to match both the quest for one's self path as well as the expression of a vocation, dance, and more particularly belly-dance.
Kamellia's powerful personality gives rhythm and tune to the sequences, adding a light sense of humor which actually could come from the tragic experience of being teared apart.
Reaching her sixtieth birthday – the climax of maturity in Japanese tradition -, Kamellia invites us to think about the meaning of a live which has been winding between the loss of origins, the feeling uprooted in a foreign country, and a retrieved wholeness by becoming an universal artist. What was lost turns into desire, into a path towards the origins as the aim of a spiritual land.
Kamellia says she needs to "clean" her memories; she seems to be in quest of pureness, a sort of wholeness into herself and with nature.
Such a search for roots brings the dancer to her birth land, Korea, where she will travel down the depths of the earth. The lava stalactites she finds can figure the mother's womb, the matter of our beginning. And the spell of her name brings us back to origins since "Kamellia" reminds "Kame": "the holly", "the completeness" in Japanese language.
A new sense of time uprises then, different from the chronological one. "Slowly but surely", says the dancer, giving us a slight hint to her deep mistery. She walks barefoot across the world, back to roots, beyond any national or political border.
Kamellia's loneliness stands out all along this journey, as well as the purity of her silence, and her means of expression, in harmony with the material-spiritual wholeness of reality.
Origins can though remind pain, rejection, exile and banishment. As it happened in the father's home, and when the environment happened to be hostile in Japan. Therefore, it is important to make such a come-back by retrieving ancestors, by dancing upon their tombs, and integrating death and forsaking.
The mother's figure stands up all over this search: not only the biological mother, but also the Cosmic Mother, like in Corean culture, where goddesses and Shaman-women are so relevant.
Kamellia remembers her own mother –a professional diver- as belonging to a peculiar community: women who would go far down the sea to earn their living.
"Only woman go to the Sea", points out Kamellia, telling us she was into her mother's womb while she was diving.
For Kamellia, the sea is a place of origins, safety and identity. Even more: a path to new territories, to horizon and hope. Once again, archeology becomes a sort of eschatology, an existential aim thanks to all the different experiences we commonly call biography.
To go back to womb, to get out from womb. Everything comes from our center,"hara" in Japanese: the heart where desire and personal strength settle. For this main reason Kamellia was seduced by "belly dance", as a way to self-honesty and to express her feelings. Body becomes a cosmic metaphor, a flower reaching its splendor, then slowly declining, expressing a natural cycle.
Once more, what was lost (youth, beauty) turns into desire, like a trend towards knowledge and its transmission to new generations.
The princess manages to deeply reach young girls and women who, maybe feeling uprooted themselves, decide to follow her path.
1. Is Kamellia a person, an artist or a spiritual path?
There is no doubt she is an artist, since she considers art as a spiritual path.
But even after forty years practicing dance, she hardly mentions herself as an "artist", this word seems too "noble" to her. Her travel never ends, it keeps going on trough music and singing.
2. The film is done under a biographical point of view. Was this Kamellia's choice? How did you manage to build up such a close dialogue between the artist and the audience?
We decided that during the making of a short film on her, "Princess of oriental dance", for her pupils used to call her "Goddess". In the beginning, dialogue kept a certain distance, since Japanese culture requires high respect in relationship between master and pupils.
But it got closer after sharing everyday's live two months along, and being welcomed in her family.
3. We can see in Kamellia both the expression of femininity, and a sort of spiritual androgyny as well: an ordinary relationship seems unnecessary, whereas an erotic-mystic link to a higher identity principle only matters.
Is Kamellia only in love with the divine, or is she able of human love?
Kamellia has been in couple different times along his life. As for androgyny is concerned, we would better think that she has reached the time of maturity and another type of aims.
4. Belly dance means a hopeful path for many western women, who often suffer from living covered and controlled by a patriarchal state. What do you expect, in terms of social impact, from this non-fiction film?
Belly dance is getting fashionable, almost like gymnastics. But the film shows this dance as an artistic expression. Nowadays, particularly in southern countries, many women can hardly express their femininity; may this film promote respect on feminine expression.
5. As women and film directors, can you imagine a time for femininity commanding the arts, the poetic role of the social, as well as the political organization of cultural institutions?
We definitely hope femininity will reach a higher dignity level in arts. And that discrimination will decrease. Kamellia is a symbol: anything is possible, since she has obtained anything through femininity.

Star Glide Wax Kit
We've put together this kit to cover all the conditions you're likely to see, using the products that win our testing most frequently. We've also included options so that you can adjust the kit to suit your specific conditions. The kit will display with a base price of $567 as we've configured it, but when you add it to your cart, a 15% discount will be applied (which will bring the price to $481.95). The base price may change based on your selections, but the 15% discount will always be applied when you add it to a shopping cart. I would make the displayed price show the discount, but I'm not smart enough to figure out how to do that, and provide you the flexibility to adjust the options.
If you'd like to have more flexibility, or to build a bigger kit, please contact us directly and we can work with you to set things up according to your demands.
Here's a run-down of what you'll get:
Base Paraffin
We have set up the kit to provide you the option of getting LF6 (cold) or LF4 (warm) base paraffins. These waxes are both excellent neutral base waxes for a wide range of race paraffins, and both are outstanding service wax and training wax with good performance for just skiing around. We use these waxes all the time in training. We have found that the LF4 wins our base testing more often than the LF6 in eastern conditions. However, Pat O'Brien has pointed out that the LF6 is a more frequent winner during many of the western Super Tour events, and he uses a lot of that. We have set the default to LF4, but encourage you to change to LF6 if you live in a particularly cold or dry environment. We have provided 250g quantities of these waxes, which will set you up well for a season of training and base waxing.
Green Conditions Paraffin
Our recommendation for very cold conditions is the LF8 paraffin, which we've used with good success in racing, and which is the default selection for this kit. You also have the option to choose the VF8 (very high fluoro) version, which has been excellent at events like US Nationals in Anchorage this past year, where the environment is very humid and snow is aggressive. We recommend the LF8 for average and dry environments, and the VF8 only for the most aggressive and high moisture environments.
Blue Conditions Paraffin
Our default selection here is HF6, which is an outstanding and very safe selection for a broad range of blue conditions. We have given you the option to select VF6 as an alternative. We would recommend the VF6 option if you are in a high humidity environment, or expect to be racing mostly on manmade snow. In general, we find that the VF4 (which we've included as a red conditions paraffin) can run well below its published temperature range, and often provides a good option in place of the VF6 when you need a little extra fluorination and lubricity in high moisture cold conditions.
Red Conditions Paraffin
There is only one option provided here. VF4 is an outstanding product that handles a broad range of temperatures and snow types extremely well. No options offered here - get the VF4 and enjoy it!
We have not provided warmer paraffins as part of this kit. Even though Star produces both VF2 and VF0 paraffins for wet and dirty conditions respectively, we have had reliably good results using the VF4 well above its advertised range.
Per-Fluoro Options
We have provided a lot of options here, because many people have different approaches to working with fluoros. Our default selections are the spray fluoros, XF6, XF4, and XF2. We have selected those because they offer excellent performance in a broad range, and they're very easy and safe to use. But we have also provided the option to select fluoro powders. So you have some flexibility here. The kit is structure to include your choice of three pure fluoro products. We've also given you the option to choose an additional fluoro product in order to take advantage of the discount pricing that this kit offers. Below is a run-down on the specific qualities of the products you have available here:
XF8 - Liquid fluoro for very cold conditions. We seldom use this product - while it works well in its range, that range of temperatures does not prioritize pure fluoro layers. Often you can do as well with good paraffin selection!
XF6 - Liquid fluoro for mid-range temps and new snow. This is an outstanding product that runs well from temperatures in the teens up to above freezing. It is predominantly a new snow product, but it's worth testing in manmade conditions as well. Easy to apply and quite durable.
XF4 - Liquid fluoro for mid-range temps and old snow. This is the old-snow equivalent of the XF6 - a broad temperature range and reliable performance in everything from fine-grained manmade to very coarse snow. If this stuff doesn't run well when you expect it to, test the XF6. Sometimes we've been surprised by conditions that look like XF4 conditions, but do better with XF6.
XF2 - Liquid Fluoro for wet conditions. This stuff excels in coarse wet snow. When you head into melt-down mode, give it a shot!
F40 - Fluoro powder very cold. We don't use this much - like the XF8 this product is best in a range where straight paraffin is often a better call.
F30 - Fluoro Powder for mid-range temps and old snow. On transformed and manmade snow this product is reliably excellent. It is quite difficult to apply, and requires iron temperatures in the range of 190C. But it also combines well with XF4 for a slurry application when you need more durability that XF4 alone will provide. We use a lot of F30, in temperatures from quite cold (low teens) to around and above freezing.
F25 - Fluoro Powder for dry new snow. This has been a reliably excellent product in season opening races in West Yellowstone, and other venues where the snow is new and cold. It doesn't have a super broad range - when the moisture really starts to free up in the snow, the F25 will run out of steam. However, it mixes very well with XF6, and the resulting blend will handle a broader range than F25 alone. F25 an XF6 can be mixed as a slurry using a felt roller, or else ironed together.
F20 - Fluoro Powder for wet new snow. This is a go-to product for us in "zero" conditions, where the kick waxing gets very tricky. It's excellent for dealing with high moisture and snow that wicks moisture to the surface, creating a wet glaze.
F15 - Fluoro Powder for coarse and old wet snow. As you might expect, this powder mixes well with XF2 spray. It also works well below freezing in coarse snow, when F30 doesn't have quite the moisture tolerance needed.

We've taken the next step in our bold network expansion and upgrade plans by relocating our Mont Albert trade branch in Melbourne, Victoria to a bigger and better site in Box Hill.
With 685 square metres of trade and warehouse space, the new branch will offer the local plumbing and building community a comprehensive range of quality plumbing supplies from leading brands, along with Tradelink's 'true blue' customer service.
Tradelink's General Manager of Operations, Tim Broxham said that new Box Hill site is a great example of identifying opportunities to improve our service offering to trade customers by positioning stores in better, more convenient locations.
"The old site at Mont Albert was difficult in terms of site access and egress. It was located on a clearway and had limited car parks for customers. Whereas, the new site at Box Hill is in a central location and has far better access with plenty of onsite parking," he said.
Head of Operations (South), David Press added that the move has clear benefits in operational and service efficiencies.
"The old site was quite fragmented in servicing the customer," he said. "By moving to a new site, we've gained a more efficient storage space, a best-in-class warehouse layout and a great new trade counter area. The new site is also a big improvement on safety, with better access to loading and unloading zones. We're now set up to serve customers much more efficiently."
Tradelink has a clear plan for upgrading and investing in our network of branches over the coming years, with a focus on improving customer service and convenience for plumbers and refurbishing showrooms for homeowners.
"We continually review our sites to ensure we are in the right locations to support trade and we've recently reclassified all of our branches in terms of size and range, to ensure our stores always stock the right products for their local area," said Mr Broxham.
"It's fair to say that some of our showrooms have suffered from many years of underinvestment, but our showroom refurbishment program will see all showrooms upgraded over the next three years. We've already refurbished 56 showrooms in the last 18 months and plan complete a further 32 refurbishments in the next 12 months, with the remaining showrooms to receive fit-outs by June 2018."
Not only is Tradelink planning to revamp its entire network of 200 plus stores over the coming years, General Manager, Alan Ball also has bold plans to significantly expand Tradelink's national footprint.
"Tradelink is serious about being the best in the business and we've committed to opening 20 additional branches each year for the next two or three years," he said.
"Feedback shows that SME plumbers prefer not to travel more than 15 minutes from a job to get parts, so we've engaged with our local branch network to understand where they believe the gaps are. We look at our existing locations, our customers and projects, as well renovation and maintenance areas, and travel times for customers, and then we put a dot on the map and effectively fill that gap. We want to make sure that no matter where plumbers are working there is a Tradelink store nearby."
Our bold commitment to open 20 new stores each year for the next three years, along with our extended Customer Service Promises and new customer loyalty program (both launching in the coming months), are just some of the ways we are working to improve our offering and service to you.
The new Box Hill branch is located at Unit 5, 41–43 Lexton Road, Box Hill. If you're in the area, drop by and say g'day to the team!

David & Victoria Beckham and their three boys, who are currently live in Los Angeles, are planning to make a move to New York City and it's all due to Victoria's quickly-expanding fashion empire, according to Now! magazine.
"My work is so important to me and LA just isn't a real fashion city," fashion designer Victoria reportedly told a friend.
"Her friendship group in LA has disbanded and David was traveling a lot more than she'd anticipated and so was she. It just seemed to make sense for her to be based in fashion capital New York. It's closer to London and Europe for her business meetings." said the source.
However, the family will keep their Beverly Hills home because David is still under contract with LA Galaxy.
"David's used to flying a lot but this will be the first time he's been permanently based so far from his team. If he has a few games in a row, he'll stay in Los Angeles." the source added.
"This isn't a decision they've come to lightly. They still like LA and have no plans to sell their home there but being based in Hollywood doesn't appeal to them anymore and they feel it's time for a change."

Biomedical Image Informatics
We are investigating and developing methods providing efficient access to information encoded in biomedical images.
Research Priorities
Imaging is one of the key data acquisition technologies in medicine and life sciences and an extremely fast evolving technology delivering increasingly detailed insights into structure and function of organisms. This rich source of information enables fundamental insights into biological processes, but also supports the ongoing efforts to realize personalized medicine. However, scientists and physicians are confronted with an ongoing explosion of imaging data that has to be processed, inspected, analyzed and correlated and the ability to efficiently get access to the core information encoded in this data decides on its final usefulness.
The Biomedical Image Informatics Group is an interdisciplinary team addressing the above challenge by providing novel visual computing solutions covering complete image based workflows in medicine and life science.
Recent solutions developed by the group cover high performance image analysis solutions for radiology, visualization solutions for intervention planning, radar image analysis for environmental studies and the development of complete IT infrastructures for management, analysis, visualization and data mining of large image data collections for neurosciences.

The bill was cosponsored by the California Bicycle Coalition and the City of Los Angeles and authored by Long Beach Senator Alan Lowenthal.
"Gov. Brown can help make our roads safer for everyone by making Senate Bill 910 the law in California," said Armstrong last week, seven-time winner of the
In his veto message Brown lauded the effort to specify a safe passing distance as a (needed and clear" improvement. However, a provision to require vehicles slow to 15 mph when passing cyclists sharing the same lane on some streets gave him pause. Brown cited "legitimate concerns" raised by
"On streets with speed limits of 35 and 40 mph," he writes, "to pass a bicycle could cause rear end collisions. On other roads, a bicycle may travel at or near 15 mph creating a long line of cars behind the cyclist."
Brown urged the bill's authors and opponents to try again next year with a bill "that solves these problems."
Writes the Bicycle Coalition on Twitter:"... we've seen how this bill has awakened the sleeping giant of of California's bicycling community on behalf of safer conditions on our roads. This issue isn't going away and neither are we!"
A similar bill was blocked in 2006 by the California Highway Patrol and various trucking interests.
The intent of the bill, according to the Bicycle Coalition was to "specify three feet as the minimum clearance drivers must give bicyclists when passing them from behind in the same lane."
There were exceptions for drivers on narrower roads and roads with double-yellow centerlines. Current California law requires drivers to pass cyclists at a safe -- but unspecified -- distance.
Twenty other states, starting with Wisconsin in 1973, have passed similar legislation into law. Nevada's law went into effect this month. Washington DC also has a safe passing law.

The market operators and experts have expressed their mixed reaction to the measures announced for the country's capital market in the budget proposed for the fiscal year (FY) 2019-20.
Hailing the proposed budgetary measures, some of them said investors would benefit from the incentives while others said good companies might face difficulties with the proposed tax on reserve and retained earnings.
The finance minister proposed, among other measures, imposition of 15 per cent additional tax on retained earnings and reserves, only if the amount exceeds 50 per cent of the paid-up capital of the company.
The government announced the measure to ensure proper distribution of profits among the investors.
Former chairman of Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) Dr. AB Mirza Azizul Islam said the raised limit of tax-free dividend income is a measure that will benefit the capital market.
"Most of the companies go for expansion through issuance of stock dividend. That's why the companies may face problems in case of expansion, if 15 per cent tax is imposed on the stock dividend," said Mr. Islam, who was also a former caretaker government adviser.
He said the proposal of imposing 15 per cent tax on retained earnings and reserves may be a cause of concern for good companies as they retain profits for future investments.
"Particularly, I am not optimistic about the outcomes of the proposed measures," Mr. Islam added.
The finance minister's budget speech has mentioned that investors expect cash dividends on their investments in the shares of a company.
"From that point of view, cash dividend plays an important role in increasing the value of the share and also strengthening the share market," says the budget speech.
"But we observe that the companies are generally distributing stock dividend instead of cash dividend."
"As a result, investors are deprived of their well-deserved return. In order to encourage the distribution of cash dividend, I propose imposition of 15 per cent tax on stock dividend distributed to the shareholders by any listed company," the budget document says.
In his reaction, former president of Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) Md. Rakibur Rahman said it is a good sign for the country's economy that the government has realised the importance of the capital market.
"This is the most capital market-friendly budget. The market will enjoy the benefit of the measures announced in the proposed budget for the FY 2019-20," said Mr Rahman, also an incumbent director of the DSE.
In the proposed budget, the tax-free dividend income for individuals has been increased up to Tk 50,000 from the existing Tk 25,000.
To encourage the distribution of cash dividend, the finance minister has also proposed 15 per cent tax on stock dividend for shareholders by any listed company amid the ongoing practice of recommending stock dividends frequently.
Md. Shakil Rizvi, a former DSE president, said real investors would enjoy the benefits of the proposed budgetary measures.
"Many companies issue stock dividends year after year. But their expansions are not visible and earnings decline following an increased number of shares. That's why tax has been proposed to encourage the recommendations of cash dividend," Rizvi said.
Md. Moniruzzaman, managing director of IDLC Investments, said another weapon could be utilised by the stock exchanges and the securities regulator to encourage the recommendation of cash dividends.
"A provision of recommending at least 10 per cent cash dividend could have been included in the rules to remain listed as an 'A' category company," Moniruzzaman said.
He said due to the bad practice of recommending only stock dividends by some companies the other good entities might face difficulties.
"A company's sustainable growth will not be ensured, if it fails to retain its earnings. Good companies should not be penalised for the bad practices of other companies," Moniruzzaman said.
Ahsanul Islam Titu, a parliament member, said the government's focus on the capital market is the most positive side of the budget proposed for the fiscal year (FY) 2019-20.
"The capital market failed to get any focus in the previous budgets. But the market got enough focus this year," said Titu, also a former DSE president.
He said the proposal of imposing 15 per cent additional tax on retained earnings and reserves is a penalty proposed to force some companies to shun bad practices.
"Good performing companies may face difficulties, if they fail to retain profits. It's also true that the government has taken this initiative following the suggestions made by the DSE," Titu said.
He said the capital market would not flourish, unless different initiatives are taken to bring companies having good fundamentals into the market.

The immunology and microbiological sciences deal with the genetics of microorganisms and the biology of infectious diseases. Learn about degree programs, careers in these fields, employment outlook and salary data for this field.
Immunology and the microbiological sciences are a set of disciplines that cover areas such as molecular biology, the genetics of microorganisms and the molecular basis for infectious diseases. Degrees in immunology and microbiology require courses in a number of topics, including biology, chemistry, biochemistry, math and physics.
A wide variety of careers would be open to you if were a degree holder in immunology and microbiology. You could find employment in areas such as medicine, academia, the biotechnology industry and government research. Jobs typically involve lab work, often with high-powered microscopes. Careers require regular hours in an educational or research facility and may provide advancement to management or supervisory positions.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), biochemists and biophysicists can expect employment growth of 19% from 2012-2022 (www.bls.gov). Microbiologists should see job opportunities increase by 7% during the same time period. As seen in May 2013 reports from the BLS, biochemists and biophysicists earned a mean annual wage of $91,640. During the same year, microbiologists made $75,230.
There are more immunology and microbiology degrees at the graduate and post-graduate levels than at undergraduate levels. Master's and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) programs in these disciplines are usually highly selective and require a substantial undergraduate background in the biological sciences for enrollment.
As an undergraduate, you could major in microbiology and immunology. These degree programs would introduce you to a variety of disciplines such as microbial genetics, medical bacteriology and parasitology. You can expect a core curriculum with courses in chemistry, physics, computer science and statistics.
You could pursue either a Master of Health Science (MHS) or Master of Science degree in immunology and microbiology. There would be at least 64 credit hours of coursework, and you may also be required to write a master's thesis. A Master of Science degree program is geared towards research and may incorporate lab rotations. Courses would cover topics like principles of immunology, virology, parasitology and disease ecology. You might also find electives on AIDS research, vaccine development or immunogenetics.
Another option is to earn a Ph.D. degree in immunology and microbiology, studying advanced immunology, molecular biology, the pathogenesis of bacterial infections, parasitology and the principles of public health ecology. Independent lab research and a dissertation are likely to be required, so you may also take advanced courses in statistics and research methodology in preparation.

Oracle Interview Questions – Part 10
Q.What are the OOPS concepts in Oracle?
Oracle does implement the OOPS concepts. The best example is the Property Classes. We can categorize the properties by setting the visual attributes and then attach the property classes for the objects. OOPS supports the concepts of objects and classes and we can consider the property classes as classes and the items as objects
Q.How does one enforce strict password control? (for DBA)
By default Oracle's security is not extremely good. For example, Oracle will allow users to choose single character passwords and passwords that match their names and userids. Also, passwords don't ever expire. This means that one can hack an account for years without ever locking the user.
From Oracle8 one can manage passwords through profiles. Some of the things that one can restrict:
.FAILED_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS – failed login attempts before the account is locked
.PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME – limits the number of days the same password can be used for authentication
.PASSWORD_REUSE_TIME – number of days before a password can be reused
.PASSWORD_REUSE_MAX – number of password changes required before the current password can be reused
.PASSWORD_LOCK_TIME – number of days an account will be locked after maximum failed login attempts
.PASSWORD_GRACE_TIME – number of days after the grace period begins during which a warning is issued and login is allowed
.PASSWORD_VERIFY_FUNCTION – password complexity verification script
Look at this simple example:
CREATE PROFILE my_profile LIMIT
ALTER USER scott PROFILE my_profile;
Q.How does one switch to another user in Oracle? (for DBA)
Users normally use the "connect" statement to connect from one database user to another. However, DBAs can switch from one user to another without a password. Of course it is not advisable to bridge Oracle's security, but look at this example: SQL> select password from dba_users where username='SCOTT';
SQL> alter user scott identified by lion;
User altered.
SQL> connect scott/lion
REM Do whatever you like…
SQL> connect system/manager
SQL> alter user scott identified by values 'F894844C34402B67';
User altered.
SQL> connect scott/tiger
Note: Also see the su.sql script in the Useful Scripts and Sample Programs Page.
Q.What is the difference between candidate key, unique key and primary key?
Candidate keys are the columns in the table that could be the primary keys and the primary key is the key that has been selected to identify the rows. Unique key is also useful for identifying the distinct rows in the table.)
Q.What are Privileges and Grants?
Previleges are the right to execute a particulare type of SQL statements. e.g :: Right to Connect, Right to create, Right to resource Grants are given to the objects so that the object might be accessed accordingly.The grant has to be given by the owner of the object
Q.What is concurrency?
Concurrency is allowing simultaneous access of same data by different users. Locks useful for accesing the database are
a) Exclusive
The exclusive lock is useful for locking the row when an insert,update or delete is being done.This lock should not be applied when we do only select from the row.
b) Share lock
We can do the table as Share_Lock as many share_locks can be put on the same resource.
Q.Table Space,Data Files,Parameter File, Control Files
Table Space :: The table space is useful for storing the data in the database.When a database is created two table spaces are created.
a) System Table space :: This data file stores all the tables related to the system and dba tables
b) User Table space :: This data file stores all the user related tables
We should have seperate table spaces for storing the tables and indexes so that the access is fast.
Data Files :: Every Oracle Data Base has one or more physical data files.They store the data for the database.Every datafile is associated with only one database.Once the Data file is created the size cannot change.To increase the size of the database to store more data we have to add data file.
Parameter Files :: Parameter file is needed to start an instance.A parameter file contains the list of instance configuration parameters e.g.::
db_block_buffers = 500
db_name = ORA7
db_domain = u.s.acme lang
Control Files :: Control files record the physical structure of the data files and redo log files
They contain the Db name, name and location of dbs, data files ,redo log files and time stamp.
Q.What are snap shots and views?
Snapshots are mirror or replicas of tables. Views are built using the columns from one or more tables. The Single Table View can be updated but the view with multi table cannot be updated
Q.What are mutating tables?
When a table is in state of transition it is said to be mutating. eg :: If a row has been deleted then the table is said to be mutating and no operations can be done on the table except select.
Q.What is Physical Storage of the Data?
The finest level of granularity of the data base are the data blocks.
Data Block :: One Data Block correspond to specific number of physical database space
Extent :: Extent is the number of specific number of contigious data blocks.
Segments :: Set of Extents allocated for Extents. There are three types of Segments
a) Data Segment :: Non Clustered Table has data segment data of every table is stored in cluster data segment
b) Index Segment :: Each Index has index segment that stores data
c) Roll Back Segment :: Temporarily store 'undo' information
Q.What are the Pct Free and Pct Used?
Pct Free is used to denote the percentage of the free space that is to be left when creating a table. Similarly Pct Used is used to denote the percentage of the used space that is to be used when creating a table
eg.:: Pctfree 20, Pctused 40
Q.What is Row Chaining?
The data of a row in a table may not be able to fit the same data block.Data for row is stored in a chain of data blocks .
Q.Can U disable database trigger? How?
Yes. With respect to table
[[ DISABLE all_trigger ]]
Q.What is the difference between deleting and truncating of tables?
Deleting a table will not remove the rows from the table but entry is there in the database dictionary and it can be retrieved But truncating a table deletes it completely and it cannot be retrieved.
Q.What is a 2 Phase Commit?
Two Phase commit is used in distributed data base systems. This is useful to maintain the integrity of the database so that all the users see the same values. It contains DML statements or Remote Procedural calls that reference a remote object. There are basically 2 phases in a 2 phase commit.
a) Prepare Phase :: Global coordinator asks participants to prepare
b) Commit Phase :: Commit all participants to coordinator to Prepared, Read only or abort Reply
Q.What are Codd Rules?
Codd Rules describe the ideal nature of a RDBMS. No RDBMS satisfies all the 12 codd rules and Oracle Satisfies 11 of the 12 rules and is the only Rdbms to satisfy the maximum number of rules.
Q.What is the Difference between a post query and a pre query?
A post query will fire for every row that is fetched but the pre query will fire only once.
Q.Deleting the Duplicate rows in the table?
We can delete the duplicate rows in the table by using the Rowid
Q.What is pseudo columns ? Name them?
A pseudocolumn behaves like a table column, but is not actually stored in the table. You can select from pseudocolumns, but you cannot insert, update, or delete their values. This section describes these pseudocolumns:
Q.What is Normalisation?
Normalisation is the process of organising the tables to remove the redundancy.There are mainly 5 Normalisation rules.
a) 1 Normal Form :: A table is said to be in 1st Normal Form when the attributes are atomic
b) 2 Normal Form :: A table is said to be in 2nd Normal Form when all the candidate keys are dependant on the primary key
c) 3rd Normal Form :: A table is said to be third Normal form when it is not dependant transitively
Q.How many columns can table have?
The number of columns in a table can range from 1 to 254.
Q.What is clustered index?
In an indexed cluster, rows are stored together based on their cluster key values . Can not applied for HASH.
Q.What are object group?
An object group is a container for a group of objects. You define an object group when you want to package related objects so you can copy or reference them in another module.
Q.What are attributes of cursor?
Q.Is space acquired in blocks or extents?
In extents .
Q.Can you use select in FROM clause of SQL select?
Q.What are the datatypes supported By oracle (INTERNAL)?
Varchar2, Number,Char , MLSLABEL.
Q.Which trigger are created when master -detail relay?
master delete property
* NON-ISOLATED (default)
a) on check delete master
b) on clear details
c) on populate details
a) on clear details
b) on populate details
a) per-delete
b) on clear details
c) on populate details
Q.What are referenced objects?
Referencing allows you to create objects that inherit their functionality and appearance from other objects. Referencing an object is similar to copying an object, except that the resulting reference object maintains a link to its source object. A reference object automatically inherits any changes that have been made to the source object when you open or regenerate the module that contains the reference object.
Q.which system variables can be set by users?
