Opinion: Can Donald Trump Really Unravel Dodd-Frank?

Despite receiving little to no support from big banks, will Donald Trump actually champion deregulation - and can he succeed?

Iranian President Rouhani calls for unity as death toll rises in unrest

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani tried to downplay the significance of sometimes violent protests across his country ...

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani tried to downplay the significance of sometimes violent protests across his country that have left 12 people dead in the biggest challenge to the authority of the Tehran regime since mass demonstrations in 2009.

"Our great nation has witnessed a number of similar incidents in the past and has comfortably dealt with them. This is nothing," Rouhani said in a meeting with Iranian members of parliament on Monday.

Rouhani has called for calm as his government deals with the widespread spontaneous uprising.

Latest developments:

-- A man "creating a disturbance" shot at police Monday with a hunting rifle, killing one officer and wounding three others, according to state media. The shooting happened in Najafabad.

-- Fresh protests broke out in Tehran and other cities, with amateur video showing demonstrators chanting anti-government slogans.

-- Rouhani called out Donald Trump after a series of tweets from the US President in support of the protests.

-- Russia weighed in, saying the demonstrations are an "internal affair" for Iran and external interference is unacceptable.

-- US Vice President Mike Pence tweeted support for protesters, saying "We will not let them down."

-- Rouhani has acknowledged that Iranians have the right to protest legally but urged national unity Monday as "the first and most important step at this stage."

-- A significant Internet outage was reported across Iran on Monday afternoon, but some users said later it was working again.

-- Iran's Ministry of Information said agitators in the disturbances have been identified and arrested, and warned that people participating in illegal activities would be "seriously dealt with."

How did it all begin?

The protests were sparked by concerns about rising living costs and a stagnant economy, but developed into a broader outcry against the regime.

They are the most serious challenge to Tehran's authority since the so-called Green Movement of 2009, when millions marched in the capital to protest the re-election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The opposition alleged the vote was rigged.

Iran has not seen the economic boost that Rouhani, who won re-election in May, had hoped would come after the nuclear deal relieved the country of sanctions and opened it up to international markets. In the spring of 2017, unemployment was 12.6%, up only slightly from 2016, according to the World Bank.

In a nod to the concerns fueling the protests, Rouhani said: "We have no bigger challenge than unemployment. Our economy requires major corrective surgery."

So far, the latest unrest is on a much smaller scale than 2009. Authorities have yet to launch a wide-ranging crackdown, as they did eight years ago, preferring instead to contain the protests locally.

Fresh protests in Tehran and other cities

Amateur videos posted on social media Monday purport to show anti-government protests for a fifth straight day. The videos showed crowds marching down the streets of different cities, including Tehran, and chanting anti-government slogans. In one video, angry protesters could be heard shouting "death to Khamenei," referring to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader.

CNN cannot independently verify the veracity of the videos.

In Tehran, protesters appeared to be playing a game of cat and mouse with police and security forces, according to Los Angeles Times reporter Ramin Mostaghim. He told CNN the police presence outnumbers the mostly younger protesters in the busy Azadi Street, but he saw several protesters yelling "down with the dictator" and sprinting away from police on the side streets. Mostaghim said some trash was lit on fire, but police quickly extinguished it.

Demonstrations turn deadly

One Iranian policeman was shot dead and three others were wounded during a riot in the town of Najafabad, in Isfahan province, south of Tehran, according to the state-run news agency Young Journalist's Club.

"One rioter in Najafabad took advantage of the situation (in that city) and used a hunting rifle to shoot at security forces, which caused the death of one policeman and injuries to three other security personnel," the YJC said in a report posted on its website.

Iran's state broadcaster said six people were killed Sunday in the small western town of Tuyserkan, according to Agence France-Presse (AFP). Six others were killed over the weekend in separate incidents in the neighboring provinces of Lorestan and Khuzestan, according to Iranian news agencies.

Reports Sunday said that as many as 200 people were arrested in the demonstrations. Iran's Ministry of Information issued a statement saying that a number of agitators in the recent disturbances were identified and arrested, and it provided a telephone number for citizens to report any illegal activity to the ministry, according to the semi-official ISNA (Iranian Students News Agency).

The ministry said more people will be arrested and warned that "they will be seriously dealt with."

Rouhani: Iranians have the right to protest legally

At a meeting with members of parliament Monday, Rouhani urged national unity, saying it "is the first and most important step at this stage." He also echoed remarks he made in a pre-recorded appeal for calm aired on state TV Sunday, saying that Iranians had the right to protest legally. "The space needs to open up for legal protest and criticism," he said.

But he drew the line at outside interference after Trump commented on the demonstrations. Rouhani said that Trump had no right to sympathize with Iran because he has previously called the Iranian people "terrorists" and has been "constantly creating problems" for Iran since being elected, according to Iran's semi-official Tasnim News Agency.

Trump weighed in again on Monday, posting: "Iran is failing at every level despite the terrible deal made with them by the Obama administration. The great Iranian people have been repressed for many years. They are hungry for food & for freedom. Along with human rights, the wealth of Iran is being looted. TIME FOR CHANGE!"

British Foreign Minister Boris Johnson called for "meaningful debate about the legitimate and important issues the protesters are raising."

In a Facebook message, Johnson called on Iranian authorities to permit dissent and stressed the importance of freedom of expression and peaceful demonstrations.

Russia called the protests an "internal affair" for Iran. The Russian Foreign Ministry added that "external interference destabilizing the situation is unacceptable" and said it hopes the demonstrations "won't develop under the scenario of bloodshed and violence," state-run Russian news agencies Tass and Sputnik reported.

Rouhani hinted that forces outside Iran are behind the protests and said his country's "progress and development has angered our enemies."

Social media sites restricted

State-run media outlet IRIB reported Sunday that officials had temporarily restricted access to social media apps Instagram and Telegram, which have been used by Iranians to share news about the protests. Iran's Minister for Communications and Technology Azari Jahromi denounced the reports as "rumors" in a post on Twitter.

Two US presidents on two Iranian crackdowns

Social media has helped galvanize tens of thousands participating in the protests, which have taken place in towns and cities across Iran. The unrest appears to have begun with hard-line agitators encouraging protests against Rouhani. But they quickly lost control of events and demonstrations have taken on a general anti-regime feel.

Monday afternoon, Internet outages were reported across the country, according to Oracle's Internet Intelligence, a global research site that monitors Internet activity. A CNN producer in Tehran said the Internet was out for about an hour before coming back on. The producer spoke with people in other cities and they said they were experiencing intermittent Internet outages.

In a rare act of defiance, some protesters have even called for the resignation of Khamenei.

In some demonstrations, women cast off their hijabs, defying the country's strict Islamic dress code. The protests have provided an opening for Iranian women to push for equal rights.

Video shared on social media captured Iranians chanting "We don't want an Islamic Republic" and "Death to the dictator." CNN has not independently verified the authenticity of the footage, purportedly shot in the western city of Khorramabad.

Leica DM6b microscope

Product of dienst

Leica DM6b microscope

The Leica DM6b microscope is an upright light microscope, intended as a general microscope for routine examinations of biological specimens (usually on microscope slides). This microscope will be used to make light-microscopical observations of small organisms, tissues and cells/bacteria.

The Leica DM6b microscope can be used with normal Transparent (Bright Field), Fluorescence and DIC illumination. The Leica LASX software allows the use of the microscope in a software controlled way, to create ordinary pictures or tile scans, pictures at different focal depths, time lapse recordings, etc.

The combination of the Leica DM6b microscope with the Leica DMi8 microscope and the software package in the Leica Light Microscopy Setup makes the system well suited for both routine and research microscopy.

Technical details

Leica DM6b microscope

The Leica DM6b microscope is a modular upright light microscope.

  • transparent illumination is provided by a 100W LED light source
  • fluorescence illumination is provided by a Metal-Halide light source of 120W (Leica EL6000). This light source is connected to the microscope by a liquid light guide to prevent warming of the specimen.
  • objectives of 5, 10, 20, 40 and 100x.
  • the eye piece magnification 10x.
  • filter sets available for fluorescence: DAPI, GFP, Texas Red, Y5, Rhodamine and BGR (Blue/Green/Red in one). The carousel of filter sets is software controlled.
  • the XYZ stage is motorized and software controlled, in order to create large tile scans and Z-stacks.
  • auto-focus during imaging is possible.
  • adjustable differential interference contrast, to produce contrasted images of living specimen.

The many automated functions allow the automatic capture of images. During the image recording process, adjustment of the viewing position (tile scanning or mark&find), and focus (extended depth of focus) are feasible. Time-lapse image capture series allow the creation of small movies of the processes of interest.

Technical functions as adjustment of diaphragms, condenser and luminous intensity for the magnification and contrast method are controlled and repeated automatically. Objective-side and condenser-side IC prisms, and the analyzer and polarizer are motorized and encoded. All the motorized functions are software controlled and displayed on the touch panel Leica Smart-Touch of the DM6b. In this way the microscope can be used without the connected workstation.

For the capturing of images three cameras are available:

  • 5 megapixel and cooled colour CCD camera DFC450C,
  • high-sensitive 1.4 megapixel monochrome camera DFC365FX
  • fast, high-sensitive 1.3 megapixel monochrome camera DFC3000G.

The cameras can be interchanged between the two microscopes.

The Leica microscope DM6b can visualize a very broad range of biological samples, such as stained histological sections on microscope slides, unstained biological sections or samples, living cells, tissues or even small organisms (e.g. zebrafish larvae). With the available filter sets a range of fluorochromes can be used to detect the different labels in the above mentioned samples. The available filter sets will be expanded in the near future.

Complementary techniques

The Leica DM6b, the upright light microscope, can be combined with the inverted light microscope, the Leica DMi8, in order to create a wide range of light-microscopical routine observations of small organisms, tissues and cells/bacteria.

Yorkshire's brewers toasted with 400-keg Maine Beer Box at Leeds International Beer Festival

Breweries from around the world will set out their stalls to promote their craft in Leeds tomorrow – but those in search of a special relationship have made a rather more adventurous hop to the city than others.

The Leeds International Beer Festival (LIBF) is showcasing the Maine Beer Box, a shipping container featuring 400 kegs, 65 breweries and 78 different varieties from the USA state.

Sean Sullivan toasts the Maine Beer Box at Leeds International Beer Festival.

Sean Sullivan toasts the Maine Beer Box at Leeds International Beer Festival.

Sean Sullivan, executive director of the Maine Brewers’ Guild, believes it could be the “biggest kegerator in the world”.

Boasting New England IPAs, sour ales, an oyster-infused stout and a spruce pine ale, the box was filled with fresh craft beer and placed aboard a freighter ship for the more than 3,000-mile voyage to Leeds.

The custom-built, 12-metre long, refrigerated container is complete with a fully self-contained, CO2 draft system, allowing beer to be served anywhere that can be reached by land or sea.

After the centrepiece has been tried and tested by some of the 12,000 punters expected at the Leeds Town Hall event between today and Sunday, brewers from across the UK will load the box with their own craft beer and ship it back across the North Atlantic to Portland, Maine.

Local companies including Leeds Brewery and North Brewing Co will then be featured at the Maine Brewers’ Guild’s Winter Session Beer Festival in November.

Mr Sullivan, 34, said the guild wanted to find a location which mirrored Maine brewers’ spirit of co-operating with each other.

He said: “We looked around the UK for places where there was a great foothold for craft beer. Leeds was up at the top of that list.”

So was the festival itself, with the Maine brewers excited to be involved in, Mr Sullivan said.

The cultural and commercial exchange was set up after the USA beer-makers were connected with those in the UK through Harriet Cross, the British Consul General to New England, whose husband Phil Saltonstall runs Brass Castle Brewery in Malton, North Yorkshire.

Mr Sullivan said: “For decades, American brewers have looked to European and British brewers for inspiration.

“Now, brewers and beer lovers around the world have their sights set on New England as the hotbed of global brewing innovation - and Maine is leading that charge.”

Representatives from 25 Maine breweries have travelled with their beer to meet with UK brewers, share their craft and pour beer side-by-side at the festival.

John Kelly, festival organiser, said: “We are thrilled that the Maine Brewers’ Guild have chosen Leeds International Beer Festival as the UK destination for the Maine Beer Box.

“With the shared aspiration of promoting and supporting breweries and beer making in our own parts of the world, the Maine Beer Box will be an incredible, and exciting addition to the seventh LIBF.

“The festival is also proud to act as a platform and host this reciprocal initiative.”

The idea continues a Global Brewers Trade project, started in Iceland last year as a way to forge collaboration between creators across the globe and to give beer-makers from different countries a chance to discover new flavours, techniques and styles.

Dynamic, Do-Now Devices to Deter Dropouts

K-12 education articles

Dynamic, Do-Now
Devices to
Deter Dropouts

"Dropout Rate Getting Worse." The news coverage revealed that in many states, the dropout rate is worsening. Nationally, the average dropout rate has been about 75% but lately, in some states, as many as a third of students leave school without a diploma. (The Oregonian, 1-27-2012.) That is a lot of lost students at a time when no diploma can mean no job. Fortunately, in this issue, we've got some real eye-opening devices you can use right now to deter dropping out.

workshop trainer Ruth Herman Wells I'm Ruth Herman Wells, M.S., the Director and Trainer for Youth Change Workshops. These dynamic dropout prevention strategies are taken from my live, online, and on-site training workshops, as well as from my Breakthrough Strategies to Teach and Counsel Troubled Youth books and posters.

Teach Potential Dropouts School Pays

Dropout Prevention PosterThis dropout prevention intervention gives potential dropouts a fact that all students should know from Day 1 of kindergarten. All students need to know that school and education deliver dollars. Look at our Poster #168.  You can view additional, similar posters here. The poster says: "Ask me how to earn  $329,000." The answer is hidden in the background; it's the word "diploma" and it's made of money. $329,000 is the amount of  additional income that high school graduates earn in their lives compared to peers who drop out. Use this poster as a discussion-starter by discussing with your students that "diplomas are made of money."

Improved Dropout Prevention Methods

Teach Potential Dropouts Dropping Out = Doing Without

Ask students to imagine they had to give up 1/3 of their home. Ask them to choose which rooms they would be willing to give up. Let students make jokes about what it would be like living without a bathroom or kitchen, for example, and help the participants to ultimately determine that they would prefer to not give up any rooms in their home. At some point, one of your students will ask "What is the point of the discussion?" You can answer: "Dropouts can typically afford about 2/3 of a home. If you don't want to live without a bathroom or kitchen, consider staying in school." For a follow-up intervention, write on the board then discuss: "Dropping Out = Doing Without."

Teach Potential Dropouts Dropping Out is No Joke

It is important to use a huge array of intervention styles if you are going to successfully maximize your outreach and impact as many potential dropouts as possible. That's why we offer you an arsenal of different types of interventions. Humor often can sometimes reach students who are unaffected by conventional interventions. Here is a quick joke that shows dropping out is no joke: "Students often make fun of peers who do well in school. What do you call a nerd in five years? Answer: Boss."

If you want a follow-up intervention, discuss: "Dropping Out is No Joke," and assist your participants to identify some of the most unfunny realities that dropouts may face in the future. Be sure to include speculation on what unfunny realities could actually happen in the future that we don't know about now. For example, perhaps restaurants will use tablet  computers for diners to place their orders, eliminating the need for waiters and waitresses.

Teach Potential Dropouts Find Out Now What You'll Learn Later

Write the following sentence on the board: "Bila kuangalia hili hadi mahali popote, kama unaweza kutafsiri sentensi hii kwa usahihi, Mimi nitakupa $ 20" then ask students to tell you what it means. When students get frustrated, point out that this is what life is often like for dropouts because they learn less than everyone else who stays in school long enough to graduate. Discuss with the class that dropping out now leaves you vulnerable later.

The sentence says in Swahili: "Without looking this up anywhere, if you can translate this sentence correctly, I will give you $20." After sharing the translation, ask students what else people can miss when they lack basic  survival tools.

For an effective, additional follow-up, use the next intervention, shown below.

Teach Potential Dropouts Can You Speak the Language of High Tech Planet?

This activity is the perfect follow-up for the preceding intervention, shown directly above. This strategy tests students ability to speak the language they will need on our high tech planet. Ask students to translate these high tech terms that will be needed for employment and daily life: ISM, SSL, spoofing, protocol, PDF. After discussing the answers with students, help your participants determine if they are ready now to speak the language on our high tech planet, or if they need to stay in school longer.

Here are the answers: ISM is an Information Systems Manager, and a very fast-growing job, as well as the person you need to help you with problems with your computer and internet connection. SSL is the abbreviation used to denote a secure internet connection that protects your credit card number from being stolen. Spoofing means being tricked on the internet, usually by a bogus email that appears to be from your bank or credit card company. Protocol is the specific set of communication rules that govern computer use, like FTP for uploading files, and http for creating websites. PDF is an abbreviation for the type of file that is the most common way to
share documents on the internet, including resumes and job applications.

Costco (COST) Posts Impressive Comparable Sales in June

Read MoreHide Full Article

In spite of operating in a competitive retail landscape, Costco Wholesale Corporation (COST - Free Report) has reported solid comparable sales (comps) numbers for the month of June. Comps for the five-week period ended Jul 8, 2018 rose 9.7%, following an advance of 11.7% in May. This shows that the company continues to be one of the dominant retail wholesalers based on the breadth and quality of merchandise offered.

The company generated net sales of $13.55 billion in the month of June, up 11.7% year over year. Notably, net sales have jumped 14.1% in the month of May.

Comps for June reflect an increase of 10.8%, 6% and 7.3% at the United States, Canada and Other International locations, respectively. Excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and gasoline prices, Costco’s comps for the month under review rose 6.9%. The company recorded comps increase of 7.7%, 3.4% and 6.9% at the United States, Canada and Other International locations, respectively.

For the 44-week period, Costco reported 9.6% jump in comps, displaying an increase of 9.1%, 10.1% and 11.8% at the United States, Canada and Other International locations, respectively. Net sales for the period came in at $116.81 billion, an increase of 12% from the year-ago period.

We noted that the company’s e-commerce comparable sales surged 27.9% in the month under review. This signals that its efforts to drive online sales bode well. With the wave of digital transformation hitting the sector, retailers are fast adopting the omni-channel mantra to provide a seamless shopping experience, whether online or in-stores. Costco, which shares space with Walmart (WMT - Free Report) , Amazon (AMZN - Free Report) and Target (TGT - Free Report) , is no exception to this trend.

Cumulatively, these helped this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) stock to climb roughly 11.7% in the past three month, comfortably outperforming the industry’s increase of 8.9%. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

Costco operates 752 warehouses, comprising 522 warehouses in the United States and Puerto Rico, 98 in Canada, 38 in Mexico, 28 in the U.K., 26 in Japan, 14 in Korea, 13 in Taiwan, nine in Australia, two in Spain, one in Iceland and one in France. It is also gradually expanding e-commerce capabilities in the United States, Canada, the U.K., Mexico, Korea and Taiwan.

The Hottest Tech Mega-Trend of All

Last year, it generated $8 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $47 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce ""the world's first trillionaires,"" but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.

Fedora 15's five best features

Red Hat's latest community Linux desktop distribution, Fedora 15, is now out and it wasn't for GNOME 3.0, I'd love it.

Fedora Linux not for everyone. If you're an experienced Linux user who wants an easy-to-use desktop Linux, I recommend Mint 11. If you're new to Linux and just want something that's easy to pick up and use, I think you should give Ubuntu 11.04 a try. But, if you're a Linux expert, and want to explore the outer limits of what's possible with Linux, then Red Hat's new Fedora 15 Linux is the distribution for you.

Why? Well, here are my five favorite reasons to use Fedora 15. I'm going to start though with one reason I don't care for this release of Fedora. Let's call this one: Feature 0.

0) The GNOME 3 desktop environment

GNOME 3 claims to be the "the next generation of GNOME with a brand new user interface. It provides a completely new and modern desktop that has been designed for today's users and technologies." It's not.

First, did we really need a "completely new desktop?" I don't think so. I quite liked GNOME the 2.x series. It worked well for me and I didn't need to learn anything new to use it. I get the point of Ubuntu's Unity, which is a radically different shell that rides on top of GNOME. Unity is meant for Windows and Mac users who've never used Linux It's also clearly designed to eventually become a tablet interface. When I look at GNOME though what I see is change just for the sake of change not change for greater end-user usability.

The idea of GNOME 3 was to get rid of clutter OK, I can see that, but in doing it GNOME's designers had made GNOME less usable For example, in shifting from one project to another in your workspace you need to use the dashboard as a window management interface For me, this is like having to stop my car to shift gears That by itself is so annoying that I quickly stopped using GNOME 3.0.

I also found miss each windows' minimize and maximize buttons. You can still minimize and maximize application windows, but what used to be an automatic action now wastes time. Finally, GNOME makes it very hard indeed to tweak your desktop. There's no easy way to even set up a screen saver! I mean seriously, I have to do something like:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme 'Clearlooks'

from a shell just to change my desktop theme?

GNOME 3 Failure: I saw this message far too many times.

It also doesn't help any that GNOME 3 won't run on basic graphics hardware. You need just the right mix of graphics and graphic drivers to get it to work. On my systems, I was only able to get one to work by using the Radeon driver for an older ATI graphics card.

In short, GNOME 3.0 is new but for users it's a step backward. Fedora 15 is the first major distribution to include GNOME 3 by default. That was a mistake. Like Fedora 4 in its first not ready for prime time versions, GNOME 3 is not what most users want from a desktop. As for me, I'm sticking with GNOME 2.32, with occasional visits to KDE 4.6.

Now that I've got that out of my system, here's what I like about Fedora 15.

Page 2: [5 Good Things about Fedora 15] »

5 Good Things about Fedora 15

1) Better power management

Desktop Linux has never done a great job of laptop battery management. Fortunately, Linux doesn't drink up that much power so it usually ends up with decent battery life anyway. But, Fedora 15 redesigned power management utilities give it better battery life than other Linuxes.

I checked this by running Intec Battery Mark 1.1 on Windows XP in a VirtualBox virtual machine on my Lenovo ThinkPad R61 with its 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor T7500 and 2GBs of RAM. With Mint 11, my six-cell battery lasted an hour and fifty-seven minutes. That's pretty darn good for a three-year old battery.

With Fedora 15, though, it made it to 2 hours and ten minutes, which is pretty darn close to what it used to do when it was brand new. Anything that gives me 10% better battery life is a major win in my book.

2) Better End-User Software

Like most up-to-the-minute Linux distributions, Fedora uses LibreOffice in place of OpenOffice, as its office suite. LibreOffice, while an OpenOffice fork is better thought of as an improved version of OpenOffice. It looks the same, works the same, but it's also faster, has many minor bug fixes and has far better Microsoft Office file format compatibility. Last, but not least, since Oracle will no longer be putting any resources into OpenOffice, LibreOffice is the most significant open-source office suite yet that's still being actively developed.

Firefox 4 in Fedora 15 worked just fine.

Firefox 4 in Fedora 15 worked just fine.

In addition, Fedora includes Firefox 4, which is certainly better than the older Firefox 3.x series. On the other hand, I would have been happier if it had used Chrome 11. But, no worries, this is Linux. Installing Chrome and making it my default browser took me less time to do than it did to write this paragraph.

3) Dynamic Firewall

OK, this is a beta feature so you have to manually install it and only network administrators are likely to find it that exciting, but I--who sometimes still wears his network administrator hat--think that it has great potential.

Like its name suggest dynamic firewall enables you to change firewall settings without needing to restart the firewall. So, for example, you can set the firewall to change its rules, as needed for virtual machines or Virtual Private Networks (VPN).

You can also use it to open up the firewall for a specific network request, such as discovering a local printer or a Windows server, and then closing down the port once you're done with that procedure. This has got real possibilities and I like it already. If all goes well, it will become the default firewall in Fedora 16 and eventually in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

4) Virtual Desktop Support

Slowly, but surely, Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments (SPICE)virtual desktops are coming to Red Hat. In Fedora 15, SPICE has been integrated into the virtualization manager, virt-manager.

Since Red Hat future desktops plans center on virtual desktops, presumably running on Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM), I find this very interesting. I also found that you can finally set up speedy SPICE virtual desktops without tweaking configuration files by hand.

5) RPM 4.9.0 Package Manager

RPM 4.9.0, Fedora and RHEL's software manager has been given a real tune-up. It's now easier than ever to install software on Fedora .For more on that see the RPM 4.9.0 release notes. The bottom line is that RPM does a much better job of handling any RPM package that you try to install on your system.

There are many other neat features as well such as security improvements in handling common Security Enhanced Linux (SELinux) problems with an easy to use GUI and improved encrypted home directory support. And then there's the BoxGringer image and virtual machine (VM) creator, and, at long, long last, a built-in consistent and sane network device naming system.

Now if they would only do something with GNOME 3! Or, better still, the GNOME 3 designers brought back some of its more end-user friendly bits and bites I'd be perfectly happy with Fedora.

Google+ finally arrives for Google Apps customers

Soon, nearly everyone on Google Apps will have access to Google+.

Good news for Google Apps customers that have been waiting to use Google+ seamlessly with their business and education accounts. Google+ is now available to anyone who uses Google Apps for work or school.

All of the same features from Google+ now will be available to enterprise and education Google Apps users. In fact, this is where Circles might become an even more valuable feature as you can better organize co-workers, project team members, and customers in a more distinct way on screen.

Additionally, Hangouts offers a much more budget-friendly (i.e. free) solution for video conferencing and telepresence as it supports multi-person video chat with screen sharing and collaboration in Google Docs.

Sure, all of these features were available for free before to anyone who wanted to sign up for a personal Google account. But for those who don't want to bother with multiple accounts (or can't access personal accounts at work), this makes the Google+ experience much more seamless for the workplace and classroom. (Even better, Google is promising a migration tool soon for anyone who actually does want to port personal Google+ data over to a Google Apps user account.)

But in case you visited Google+ from your enterprise/education account and/or are wondering where it is in the Apps menu bar at the top of Gmail or Google Calendar, note that Google+ needs to be manually turned on at your organization.

More so, Google Apps for Business customers and some other Google Apps users will see Google+ roll out over the next few days. Select U.S. universities are making Google+ available for their students starting today. A full list is available on the Google Enterprise blog.

Twitter introduces enterprise API to help boost customer engagement

With the new enterprise API, developers will be able to build apps for companies to engage with customers through direct messages, chatbots, and other tools.

Twitter has released an enterprise version of its Account Activity API, that will enable developers to better build apps for companies to engage with customers through direct messages, chatbots, and other tools.

Twitter said Tuesday its enterprise version of Account Activity API is now available and designed for those who need data for a large number of accounts, multiple webhook URLs, reliability features such as retries, or managed support.

Twitter's Account Activity API was released to developers in beta form last April that provides the full set of activities related to an account in real time. This includes likes, mentions, replies, retweets, and more. Twitter said Tuesday that Account Activity API has entered into a standard beta.

Companies including Samsung, MTV, TBS, and Wendy's have used the new API for chatbots to launch marketing campaigns.

Earlier this year, Twitter also introduced direct message features that allow companies to better engage with customers through quick replies, welcome messages, prompts, and more. Twitter said the Direct Message features are now out of beta, fully functional and supported, just in time for enterprise apps to take advantage of the new Twitter APIs.

Tesco, Evernote, and others have used the direct message features for customer service.

Twitter added Tuesday it also plans (via TechCrunch) to add typing indicators and read receipts for direct messages as activities in the Account Activity API to create more natural conversation starting January 15.

The new enterprise features come as part of an overall API refresh from Twitter as it works to better connect with the developer community. In November, Twitter launched a premium version to give developers access to more data like tweets per request as well as more complex queries and better paid search features with filtering and more data.

How To Become A Transmission Technician

Employers prefer that automotive service technicians and mechanics complete a formal training program at a postsecondary institution. Industry certification is usually required once the person is employed.

High school courses in automotive repair, electronics, computers, and mathematics provide a good background for prospective service technicians. However, high school graduates typically need further training to become fully qualified.

Completing a vocational or other postsecondary education program in automotive service technology is considered the best preparation for entry-level positions. Programs usually last 6 months to a year and provide intensive career preparation through classroom instruction and hands-on practice. Short-term certificate programs in a particular subject, such as brake maintenance or engine performance, are also available.

Some service technicians get an associate’s degree. Courses usually include mathematics, electronics, and automotive repair. Some programs add classes in customer service and other necessary skills.

Various automobile manufacturers and dealers sponsor associate’s degree programs. Students in these programs typically spend alternating periods attending classes full time and working full time in service shops under the guidance of an experienced technician.

Service technicians who have graduated from postsecondary programs in automotive service technology generally require little on-the-job training.

Those who have not completed postsecondary education, however, generally start as trainee technicians, technicians’ helpers, or lubrication workers. They gradually acquire more knowledge and experience by working with experienced mechanics and technicians.

Licenses, Certifications, and Registrations

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires all technicians who buy or work with refrigerants to be certified in proper refrigerant handling. No formal test preparation is required, but many trade schools, unions, and employer associations offer training programs designed for the EPA exam.

Certification from the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) is the standard credential for service technicians. Certification demonstrates competence and usually brings higher pay. Many employers require their service technicians to become certified.

ASE certification is available in nine different automobile specialty areas: automatic transmission/transaxle, brakes, light vehicle diesel engines, electrical/electronic systems, engine performance, engine repair, heating and air-conditioning, manual drive train and axles, and suspension and steering.

To become certified, technicians must have at least 2 years of experience (or relevant schooling and 1 year of experience) and pass an exam. Technicians who achieve certification in all of the foregoing areas (light vehicle diesel engine certification is not required) may earn ASE Master Technician status.

Important Qualities

Customer-service skills. Service technicians must discuss automotive problems—along with options to fix them—with their customers. Because workers may depend on repeat clients for business, they must be courteous, good listeners, and ready to answer customers’ questions.

Detail oriented. Service technicians must be aware of small details when inspecting or repairing vehicle systems, because mechanical and electronic malfunctions are often due to misalignments or other easy-to-miss causes.

Dexterity. Service technicians perform many tasks that require steady hands and good hand-eye coordination, such as assembling or attaching components and subassemblies.

Mechanical skills. Service technicians must be familiar with engine components and systems and know how they interact with each other. They often must take apart major parts for repairs and be able to put them back together properly.

Organizational skills. Service technicians must keep workspaces clean and organized in order to maintain safety and ensure accountability of parts.

Physical strength. Service technicians must sometimes lift and maneuver heavy parts such as engines and body panels.

Troubleshooting skills. Service technicians must be able to use diagnostic equipment on engine systems and components in order to identify and fix problems in increasingly complicated mechanical and electronic systems. They must be familiar with electronic control systems and the appropriate tools needed to fix and maintain them.

Robotic and Cognitive Automation

The fusion of digital with operational excellence

In recent years Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has emerged as a viable, cost effective lever to drive value from multiple sources by reducing cost, improving operational risk management, creating capacity to enable growth and improving customer experience. The promise of minimal investment, faster ROI and relatively light engineering has led many firms across all industry sectors to explore and pilot RPA capability. However, for many firms, getting to scale and developing sustainable capability proves more elusive as they navigate the realities of fractured business processes, unstructured data, legacy IT architectures and traditional change governance cultures.

In our client engagements at market leading RPA Centres of Excellence (CoE) we see certain themes and trends emerging as critical success criteria for achieving sustainable capability and business benefits. In this paper, we share our insights into RPA leadership, strategic drivers, service delivery models and organisational design, talent and technology.

Read the full report

Our strategic insight is that the firms who extract most value from RPA see it as a complimentary lever within a wider ‘Digital Operational Excellence’ framework. Their rounded and realistic view acknowledges the benefit of adopting a ‘right lever, right place, right time’ approach across entire value streams. In effect, this assimilates Digitisation, Lean, RPA, Organisational Design, Operations Management, System Integration and Sourcing solutions and provides the right foundation to exploit emerging cognitive technologies such as Image Recognition, Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning, thus evolving RPA to Robotic & Cognitive Automation.

What to Get Your Road Warrior Dad

Are you ready for the weekend? I don’t just mean TGIF and all that: I’m referring to Father’s Day on Sunday. We know you’re not planning to skip out on buying Dad a gift, but sometimes it’s hard to think of the perfect thing without defaulting to a tie. (PS: Don’t buy another tie ever again!) If you haven’t thought of anything for the occasion just yet, we’re here to help you.

Since we are writing a travel blog, we want to keep it relevant by highlighting the best ideas for the traveling men in our lives. According to recent research from Forbes magazine, men make up 71% of the traveling workforce. Surprisingly, 80% of business travelers hit the trail alone on each business trip. Sounds like a lonely road, so what could possibly be a better way to remind Dad of family and home than by thanking him with a thoughtful gift?

For any on-the-road dad: No one can call his bluff that these aren’t a fancy pair of slacks. Ideal for long flights and business meetings alike, these lightweight pants stay wrinkle-free and seamlessly comfortable all day long. (Here’s hoping they make some for women soon!) Check them out!

Here’s another one: tickets. Whether it’s to the game you know he’s been anticipating or the sequel to the sci-fi movie he loves, show him you listen to his interests by treating him. Grab some tickets from Ticketmaster or Fandango.

For the poker-playing papa: Does your dad love to participate in a good gamble? Even if everyone can read his poker face, his game will look pretty strong with this deluxe poker portable.

For the beer-lovers: These homemade growlers were crafted in Portland with all the right details. The lids were trimmed for the tightest possible fit to avoid spillage, and the ceramic body guarantees a cold drink for days after refrigeration. That’s right – days. Get these for the beer or bourbon man in your life.

For the bearded ones: Burrough’s beard oil is the standard in hip, natural beard products. Just in time for Father’s Day, you can order Prospector Co. products with the special code DAD for a percentage off.

For the shipshape pater familias: For dads that keep spilling hygiene items into their suitcase despite their best efforts, this tough pouch delivers on craftsmanship and utility alike. Made from a former sail maker, it’s handcrafted to last and ruggedly handsome. See details or color options here.

For the sentimental daddy: He’d love to have the reminder that he’s The Best Dad Ever every morning when he drinks his coffee.

Apple’s first 5G iPhone could come in 2020: report

Wireless carriers are preparing for 5G connectivity, the next generation of cellular networking that promises to bring faster download speeds to consumers. Hardware manufacturers are also getting ready, with plans already in motion for a number of devices that will take advantage of those faster networks. A new report suggests that Apple will release its 5G phone in 2020.

The FCC granted Apple approval to experiment with 5G technology last year, laying the groundwork for a 5G phone down the road. A report in Fast Company cites “a source with knowledge of Apple’s plans,” who says that the phone will be released in 2020. The report also notes that the company plans to use Intel’s 8161 5G modem chip, although there are still some technical…

A good choice

Some readers of y1 have praised the story’s criticisms of the zealous marketing of prescriptions drugs in American, particularly mental health drugs to children and young adults. A couple of readers have taken issue with it.  For me as a writer, the subject was representative of the larger issue of putting profit ahead of the well-being of our children. It was a vehicle to make a bigger point.

tearsBut as a mother, the idea of routinely prescribing drugs with serious side-effects and unknown long term consequences to children as young as two years old hits home with an emotional wallop of its own. Every once in awhile I come across an article that reminds me why I thought that  pharmaceutical marketing targeting children would provide a good villain for my story.

Gwen Olsen, who worked for fifteen years as a drug rep for Johnson & Johnson and Bristol-Myers Squibb, was recently quoted on Alternet as saying: “Children are known to be compliant patients and that makes them a highly desirable market for drugs, especially when it pertains to large profit-margin psychiatric drugs, which can be wrought with noncompliance because of their horrendous side-effect profiles.”

Great. Adults are allowed to follow their best instincts and listen to their own bodies, and therefore frequently stop taking drugs they find more harmful than helpful. Children can be ordered to take their medicine, and their parents can be scared into making them do so.

It is enough to make a healthy adult want to cry.

How things change: the eye of the beholder

When I graduated from high school, apparently  homosexuality was listed as a mental disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual used by psychiatrists to diagnose mental conditions. I didn’t know it at the time, of course, because to the best of my knowledge there weren’t any homosexuals in my home town and there possibly weren’t even any in the whole state of Kansas.  It was a rare condition, my mother assured me.

Unbeknownst to me, there were also gay activists in 1974, and they pushed the American Psychiatric Association to remove it from the DSM. It was removed, and since then a lot a of new illnesses have been added. As edition five came out this spring, psychiatrists took a lot of grief for classing so many types of behavior as “illnesses.” For example, disruptive mood dysregulation disorder threatens to turn children with too many temper tantrums into those with a mental disorder and binge eating (defined as excessive eating 12 times in 3 months and I wonder if my ice cream habit puts me over the top here) is now an official mental illness.

On the one hand, classification as an illness does allow those who want help to get their insurance to pay for it, if they have insurance 🙂 . On the other hand, having your idiosyncrasies or your own areas for personal growth classed as a mental disorder could be life altering in negative ways as well.

So what of homosexuality as a form of mental illness? Well, a few months ago Saul Levin, an openly gay man, was named the  new American Psychiatric Association chief executive officer and medical director.

Things do change with time. In the case of Dr. Levin, I’m glad that they have and I wish him the best. In the case of the new mental illness referred to as “hoarding disorder” …… well, I prefer to still consider it one my more charming little eccentricities.

How happy is your brain?

From Crystalinks.com

From Crystalinks.com

My other blog includes occasional posts about telepathy because the hero of my other novel, x0,  is a budding telepath.  Last night I made an attempt to understand how telepathy might be possible without requiring magic that defies the laws of the known universe. (Please understand that I have no objection to law-defying magic.) I realized that much of my arguement came from my research for y1 into the workings of the human brain. Zane, the hero of y1, is a student of neuroscience because he desperately wants to understand how he can alter his appearance. Once he begins working for a pharmaceutical company dedicated to mental health issues, however, other aspects of the brain begin to intrigue him.  Like, what happens in your brain when you are happy?

A brain works by chemistry and by electrical impulse, and it directs hundreds of chemical substances called neurotransmitters that travel in-between the brain’s cells, delivering messages about thoughts and feelings. I share Zane’s amazement that such a system even works, much less with the precision that it does.

We do know that different substances deliver certain kinds of messages, like a FedEx that only does books or a UPS that exclusively delivers clothing. One of these messengers, serotonin, generally likes to blab to the nearest neuron about anxiety, mood, sexuality, and appetite. Another, norepinephrine, appears to focus on delivering messages about fatigue, alertness, and stress. Dopamine likes to communicate about motivation and reward. The theory behind antidepressants is that the neurotransmitters that like to communicate about feelings should be linked to a person’s happiness. So when people are depressed perhaps it is because they do not have enough of these particular messengers running around to spread the joy.

medicineThe very first antidepressants created in the ‘50s tried to raise the brain’s levels of serotonin and norepinephrine, to play with this mental message system. A second class of anti-depressants was based on inhibiting the enzyme that breaks down these guys in order to leave more of the good stuff in the brain. Basically the same idea. Next came the less side-effect-plagued successor, known as selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRI), the most frequently prescribed antidepressants today. First developed in the ‘70s, and continuously improved upon by different pharmaceutical companies, SSRI’s work by stopping the process of reuptake, a fancy name for when a responsible neuron absorbs the neurotransmitter it has sent out, to take the messenger back off the streets once the message has been sent. The theory here is that by keeping the sending neuron from doing its re-absorbing, more of this “happy” chemical stays running around the brain. Again, the same idea.

From Wired.com

From Wired.com

While it sounds great to say that taking this medication is “fixing chemical imbalances in the brain,” the problem is that no one gets to do experiments on a live human brain. Thankfully. And dead human brains don’t send chemical messages and can’t be depressed. Neither really can animals, at least those generally accepted for grisly lab experiments. So no one actually knows whether depressed people have less serotonin in their brains. Or whether they reabsorb it too fast without medication. In fact, no one knows how much serotonin a generally joyful person has. Can one really have too little? Or too much? Because a few antidepressants lower serotonin levels, and they appear to work too.

Trying to figure out what makes for a happy brain is complicated even more because there is no way to tell how much these medications change a person’s serotonin levels, because there is no way to measure those levels in a live human. Which means that, in the end, the only evidence we have that serotonin levels might be related to human depression at all is that in more cases than not, the medication works.

Is it working because it is based on an accurate analysis of how chemicasl in our brains keep us happy? Or not?  That will be subject of another post.

Peripheral Neuropathy

Your peripheral nervous system connects the nerves from your brain and spinal cord, or central nervous system, to the rest of your body. This includes your:

  • arms
  • hands
  • feet
  • legs
  • internal organs
  • mouth
  • face

The job of these nerves is to deliver signals about physical sensations back to your brain.

Peripheral neuropathy is a disorder that occurs when these nerves malfunction because they’re damaged or destroyed. This disrupts the nerves’ normal functioning. They might send signals of pain when there’s nothing causing pain, or they might not send a pain signal even if something is harming you.

The symptoms of peripheral neuropathy include:

  • tingling sensation in the hands or feet
  • a feeling of compression, like you’re wearing a tight glove or sock
  • sharp, stabbing pain
  • numbness of the hands or feet
  • a weak, heavy feeling in the arms and legs, which sometimes may feel like your legs or arms lock in place
  • regularly dropping things from your hands
  • a buzzing or shocking sensation
  • thinning of the skin
  • a drop in blood pressure
  • sexual dysfunction, especially in men
  • constipation
  • digestive difficulty
  • diarrhea
  • excessive sweating

These symptoms can also indicate other conditions so make sure you tell your doctor about all of your symptoms.

If you experience any of the symptom above at our Woodland Hills office we offer Microlight Laser Therapy session to treat of these conditions. The same laser therapy is also used for chronic arthritis pain, old injuries, scar tissue and migraines.

To schedule an appointment you can call our office or fill out the form below and someone will contact you within 24 hours.

Family Seeking Closure in Missing Teen Case

Family members continue their search for 17-year-old Dylon Clarke, who was last seen on Saturday April 28.

Reports state that Dylon left home that day and did not return, raising concerns by his family.

In an interview on Choice Radio in Nevis, Dylon’s sister said their mother immediately suspected something was wrong after her son did not return home.

“My brother is missing and my mother had strong feelings that something had happened to him because he had never done anything like that before and she hadn’t been in contact with him then and he hadn’t contacted her.”

Since his disappearance, a number of search parties consisting of family members, friends, the Police and Defense Force, Nevis Disaster Management Department and other volunteers combed several parts of Nevis for the missing teen.

The family member thanked everyone for their support during the ordeal, adding that they need some form of closure as to what happened to Dylon Clarke.

“We want to thank you all so much for doing that for us and we appreciate your help thus far and we are pleading that you would continue to help us to try and find Dylon. He is valuable to us, we love him, we miss him and not only us but his friends miss him. A lot of people feel very uncomfortable because of the situation. We just want to bring closure to this particular case.”

The family has since offered a $10,000 reward for any information leading to Dylon being found.
