A Guide to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) plays an essential part in the industrial operations process by collecting and analyzing data from sensors and devices. This data helps to then optimize the industrial process by improving maintenance capabilities.
Are you an industrial operator in California looking to enhance and automate your processes? Do you need help determining what role the IIoT plays in the automation process? If so, you will want to read this short guide to the basics of IIoT from the experts at Access Industrial Automation.
We will explain what the Industrial Internet of Things is, how it’s used, its benefits, and also what to consider when using it. Keep reading to grow your understanding of all things IIoT.
What is IIoT?
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is the use of interconnected sensors, machines, and other devices to enable the exchange of data within an industrial setting. The IIoT collects, monitors, and analyzes data gained from these interconnected devices to create smarter industrial ecosystems.
Key Components of IIoT
Some of the key components of IIoT are sensors and actuators, smart machines, communications infrastructure, and data analytics. Without these key components, the IIoT couldn’t provide the industrial process without the crucial data it does.
We will discuss these key components in more detail below.
Sensors and Actuators
Sensors are used to collect physical data, such as motion, temperature, or pressure, which then go to the control system. From there, the control system signals the actuator to perform an action depending on the data given by the sensors.
Connectivity protocols are used for transferring data across the IIoT ecosystem and can be provided by wired or wireless connections. Different protocols are used for different processes, but they should all be secure and up to industry standards.
Some of the most common connectivity protocols used in IIoT are MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) and Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP). Through these connectivity protocols, the IIoT system can communicate data messages securely.
Processing and Data Analysis Tools
Processing and analysis tools like edge and cloud computing and software applications that analyze and interpret data are a key part of the IIoT ecosystem. Through sophisticated data analytics, IIoT can help industrial automated systems reach their full potential.
Edge computing is when data is processed at a network’s edge, as in at the sensors themselves. They can be sent to an edge server, which will store and process data locally before sending the rest to a cloud server.
A cloud server offers a more in-depth and advanced approach to processing and can store data from several different locations. A cloud server will generally have an on-site hub that provides remote connectivity between systems and a user interface for access.
How is IIoT applied in industries?
The IIoT ecosystem is applied in all kinds of industries that offer automated processes. Here is a list of some of the industries that IIoT is used in:
- Oil and gas
When IIoT is applied in these industries, it becomes easier to optimize supply chains, handle heavy machinery, predict maintenance, and keep track of many different moving parts and components. This optimization leads to many other benefits as well.
The Benefits of IIoT
There are many benefits to implementing IIoT, such as increased operational efficiency, cost reduction, and more. We will discuss these benefits in further detail below.
- Increased Operational Efficiency: By collecting and analyzing data, IIoT can help improve the efficiency of industrial processes and reduce downtime.
- Cost Reduction: IIoT can help avoid costly damages to machinery by predicting maintenance needs and making note of any potential disrepair.
- Improved Decision-Making: Through the high-quality data that is collected and processed by IIoT, industries can improve their decision-making process and have a more efficient approach to resolving issues.
- Enhanced Safety: IIoT provides a safer environment by collecting any data that would point to a potentially dangerous issue or hazard. Once this data has been processed, systems can be shut down and fixed before employees are put further at risk.
- Reduces Energy Waste: Through consistent data collection and monitoring, IIoT can help reduce energy waste by pointing out any energy inefficiencies in your process. Industrial operations can produce large amounts of energy, and saving energy where you can is a significant advantage.

If you want to use your windshield rain sensor or find out if you have one on your vehicle, you will have to know how to locate it. Follow the steps below to determine whether you have the safety measures that you need when it starts raining. The rain sensor looks like a small metallic black sticker on the windshield, and the control box is a plain black box on the inside of the vehicle that control the sensors commands. Both of these parts are essential for the sensor to work correctly.
Step 1 - Checking Inside and Outside
Depending on the make and model your vehicle, you will want to search all areas of your windshield to find out where the sensor is located. It may be on the inside of the car, on the windshield. In this case, it will probably be towards the top, but can also be on the bottom. Make sure to check each one of the 4 corners to see if it is there.
If you do not find the sensor inside the car, look on the outside. It is usually located on the top of the windshield for quick, accurate read outs of when it starts to rain and your windshield wipers needs to work. Make sure to check each one of the four corners on the outside of the windshield. This is the most common place that the sensor will be in.
Step 2 - Locating the Sensor
Since you have gone all the way around your windshield from the inside and the outside you should have came across your sensor. It is a large circular area in black. This will allow you to not have to worry about the windshield wipers while driving if it starts to rain. It will be able to turn them on by knowing that it is raining. The sensor should be intact, on your windshield, and it will not be protruding so do not look for a large lump or something coming out from your windshield. It is more like a sticker that is shiny with a small bump.
This sensor has been an added feature to many of the newer cars and trucks that have come out. It is to help prevent road accidents because of natural disasters. They want to make sure that you’re safe while driving your vehicle. If you are having a hard time locating the sensor, your vehicle might not be a equipped with one. You can find out if you have a rain sensor by checking your vehicle’s handbook.
You should be able to see all the extras that came with your vehicle or that you can use to upgrade it. This allows you to have the choice on whether or not you would like to have the rain sensors installed into your vehicle. You can learn how to troubleshoot, fix, and replace the rain sensor on your own in order to save money if you read about changing and replacing sensors. This allows you not to have to call a professional in.

It started with one simple fold-over purse pattern (I would give credit where credit is due, but unfortunately I have no idea where the pattern is now), but now I can look at a picture in a catalog or online & come up with my own variation. I'm actually quite proud of myself for this.
So this purse started as a fat quarter & some scraps this morning, and now it's a really cute handbag with gussets. The flap for closing it buttons on the front where the pocket is. I made it so I can button the pocket and the purse together. I'm just not crazy about the handles, but I'll figure those out better on the next one.
Oh, and just a little clarification for those who are seeing my stars for the first time. I use 18" or 28" tin barn stars, and I Mod-Podge various scrapbook papers on them. Then I embellish them with ribbons & little knick-knacks on the center. Emma & Jake each have a small one in their rooms, and I have my first large one in our entry way, as well as a small one on the wall over the computer. The snowman star that I made for my mom is already hanging over her dining room table! I think it's actually my favorite star so far.

President Donald Trump vowed on Saturday to scrap the payroll tax, a funding system for Social Security and Medicare, if he wins re-election.”If I’m victorious on November 3rd, I prepare to forgive these taxes and make everlasting cuts to the payroll tax,” Trump claimed at a press meeting asserting government steps on coronavirus relief.Specialists say the transfer to slash payroll taxes would additional erode the shaky funds of both equally plans.Stop by Business Insider’s homepage for a lot more stories.
President Donald Trump pledged on Saturday to scrap the payroll tax, a vital system that is used to fund Social Security and Medicare.”If I’m victorious on November 3rd, I strategy to forgive these taxes and make long-lasting cuts to the payroll tax,” Trump said at a push convention. “I am going to make them all long-lasting.”He later stated: “In other phrases, I am going to extend it past the conclusion of the year and terminate the tax. So we are going to see what transpires.”The payroll tax resources Medicare and Social SecurityThe federal govt imposes a 15.3% levy on wages recognised as the payroll tax. It’s evenly divided involving companies and workers, and most of it goes to fund Social Security. It also will help to finance Medicare, the federal overall health insurance software for people today above the age of 65 and for young Us citizens with disabilities.
In an April 2020 Gallup poll, 58% of retirees reported they relied on Social Security for a “significant source” of their revenue.Trump’s unanticipated comments on Saturday arrived as he signed an array of executive steps aimed at providing aid to Us residents for the duration of the pandemic. Amid them was a payroll tax minimize, which he is waiving from September through the conclusion of the 12 months for personnel earning underneath $100,000 a 12 months.But it will not forgive workers’ payments outright due to the fact the ability to eliminate taxes or change the tax code rests with Congress. As staff and employers are nonetheless legally on the hook to make those people payments future year, experts say it truly is not likely that persons will see a bump in their wages at any time shortly.As well as, lawmakers from both of those get-togethers roundly rejected such as a payroll tax reduce in their stimulus proposals. Many economists say it would not advantage the 31 million unemployed Us citizens, possibly.
Congressional action to remove the tax totally is also unbelievable, and in its place established off a fraught discussion around the federal programs’ fiscal futures.Medicare and Social Security’s finances are previously shakyEconomists from the remaining-leaning Centre for American Progress warned on Thursday that Trump’s drive to enact a payroll tax lower could more erode their shaky funds.”Trump’s plan would weaken the Social Security and Medicare rely on cash by diverting the revenue from the worker part of Social Security and Medicare taxes, and likely the employer’s share of Medicare taxes, from the programs’ rely on funds,” a memo from the firm mentioned.The have confidence in money for the two programs are scheduled to be depleted in this 10 years. The Bipartisan Policy Heart initiatives that if economic damage was equivalent to the Good Recession a ten years in the past, the Social Security believe in funds could be depleted in 2029. That could prompt a 31% reduce in retirement rewards, the business reported.
The Medicare trust fund is in even worse shape. Its trustees explained the plan would run out of dollars in 2026 — also with out accounting for the pandemic.

Big tech companies like Google and Facebook are aggressively moving into the world of healthcare. But Uber?! We didn't see that one coming.
Uber already has a two-year-old Uber Health(opens in a new tab) arm that allows doctors' offices to arrange rides for patients to get to their appointments. But there's much more to come.
Over the past six weeks, the head of Uber Health, Dan Trigub, has been making the rounds with lawmakers, analysts, and reporters about expanding Uber Health's offerings. He gave the example of prescription delivery in October(opens in a new tab), and reiterated Uber's interest in that area while in Washington, D.C. this week.
Last month while speaking at the CBInsights Future of Health conference in New York, Trigub said that delivering prescription drugs, medical equipment, and healthy meals are "all things we're absolutely thinking about."
Additionally, Politico reported(opens in a new tab) that, this week, Trigub said Uber wants to deliver prescriptions and food within the next two years.
Mashable has reached out to Uber to learn more about these plans, and will update this story when we do.
The last year has seen a host of big tech companies diving deeper into healthcare, both publicly and behind the scenes. Most notoriously, a Wall Street Journal(opens in a new tab) report (opens in a new tab)exposed Google's contract with a healthcare provider to analyze non-anonymized patient health data — a deal patients weren't aware existed. Facebook, Apple, and Amazon(opens in a new tab) are all also trying to tap into the fast-growing, multi-trillion dollar(opens in a new tab) healthcare industry, with many of them relying on data collection. That worries consumers and experts who aren't sure they trust sensitive data in the hands of Big Tech.
Uber is keenly aware of this sticking point, and wants to increase its healthcare business in a way that doesn't involve the massive collection and analysis of personal data. It already doesn't disclose the medical purpose of Uber Health rides to drivers. And the company also keeps data associated with Uber Health cordoned off from general data, and restricts who in the company can see it.
"We absolutely do not share our data with any third parties [or data brokers]," Trigub told Politico.
Instead, Uber encourages its healthcare partners to utilize Uber and patient data themselves. For example, doctors could use their own data about missed appointments to determine who might be a good candidate for Uber Health rides. And for Uber's part, it could share data with healthcare companies about people who miss their rides, or people in area codes with limited public transportation, to help prevent missed appointments. That could be a boon for patients and doctors — but Uber itself doesn't necessarily want to be the one that keeps the data and analyzes it.
Still, prescription delivery trips pose a bigger privacy headache than rides to and from doctors' offices. To that end, it's not clear yet just how Uber intends to safeguard data like what medications its users are taking — or if it would even be necessary to collect that data for any Uber Rx service.
It's also not the only tech company trying to crack the logistics problem of prescription fulfillment. There are multiple companies(opens in a new tab) out there, like PillPack, that let customers fill their prescriptions online, and then get them delivered by mail. But if Uber is able to integrate its appointment ride services with prescription delivery, its brand recognition could give it a massive leg up.
Sure, Uber's move into healthcare might sound surprising, but it's actually very much in lock step with the rest of its tech brethren. And as long as it can keep its hands out of the health data cookie jar, an Uber Rx that takes the sting out of long pharmacy visits is something we can all get behind.
UPDATE: Nov. 22, 2019, 3:49 p.m. PST
Mashable spoke with Uber and a spokesperson confirmed that prescription delivery is something the company is assessing for Uber Health.

In recent times, the question of whether felons can travel out of state has gained significant attention. It’s a topic that concerns individuals who have a criminal record and wish to move freely within the United States. Traveling out of state is not just about leisure; it often involves crucial life events like visiting family, seeking employment opportunities, or pursuing education. Therefore, understanding the rights and restrictions on interstate travel for felons is of paramount importance. In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the various aspects of this topic, shedding light on the legalities, challenges, and opportunities that felons face when it comes to traveling across state lines.
Understanding the Legal Landscape
To address the question of whether felons can travel out of state, we must first examine the legal framework that surrounds this issue. It’s essential to note that the United States does not have federal laws that explicitly prohibit felons from traveling between states. However, several factors come into play:
Parole and Probation Conditions
One of the most significant factors determining whether a felon can travel out of state is their parole or probation status. When an individual is released from prison, they are often placed on probation or parole, during which they must adhere to specific conditions set by the court or parole board. These conditions may include restrictions on leaving the state without permission. Violating these terms could result in severe consequences, including a return to prison.
Travel Restrictions Imposed by States
While there are no federal travel restrictions for felons, individual states may have their own rules and regulations. Some states impose travel restrictions on felons, especially those convicted of serious offenses. These restrictions can vary widely from state to state and may include requirements such as notifying authorities before traveling or obtaining written permission.
Overcoming Travel Challenges
Traveling out of state as a felon can be challenging, but it is not impossible. Here are some strategies that individuals with a criminal record can employ to navigate these challenges successfully:
1. Consult with a Legal Expert
Before planning any out-of-state travel, it’s advisable to consult with an attorney who specializes in criminal law. They can provide guidance on your specific situation, including any parole or probation conditions that may apply to you.
2. Seek Permission
If you are on probation or parole, it’s essential to follow the rules and seek permission from your parole officer or probation officer before traveling out of state. Failure to do so can have severe consequences.
3. Research State Laws
If you are unsure about the travel restrictions in a particular state, do your research. Understanding the laws of the state you plan to visit is crucial to avoid legal complications.
4. Rehabilitation and Record Expungement
In some cases, individuals may be eligible for record expungement or have their criminal records sealed. This legal process can significantly improve your chances of traveling freely without the stigma of a criminal record.
The Importance of Rehabilitation
The question of whether felons can travel out of state ultimately highlights the broader issue of rehabilitation and reintegration into society. Society benefits when individuals with criminal records are given opportunities to rebuild their lives and contribute positively to their communities.
In conclusion, while there are no federal laws prohibiting felons from traveling out of state, several factors, including parole and probation conditions and state-specific regulations, can affect their ability to do so. To ensure trouble-free travel, it’s essential for felons to seek legal advice, understand their obligations, and make informed decisions. Remember that rehabilitation and reintegration into society are crucial aspects of addressing this issue. With the right guidance and commitment, individuals with criminal records can work towards a brighter future and enjoy the freedom to travel within the United States.

Pippa posted a link to a website that has descriptions of what your dog's name tells you about the dog. Or something. I was curious so I thought I'd look up my name. Here's what it said:
Wally falls into the 'One' group of dog names. The natural show-offs of the dog world, your 'One' will love to live in the limelight. 'One'dog names love to be the center of attention as well as running the show. This can lead to the problem with 'One' dog names trying to not only boss around the rest of your pets, but you as well! Simply let them know who's really boss in a gentle manner and they'll happily go back to hamming it up for you! If that sounds like what you're interested in, Wally might be a good dog name for you to choose.
Who ME, bossy??? Show-off?
When it comes to personality expressions, Wally falls into the 'Nine' group of dog names. Dogs and people see your dog Wally as being flexible and intuitive. To the observer, 'Nine' dog names seem to have the intuition to know exactly what sort of behavior and attitude is appropriate or needed for whatever situation they're in
Like how I'm a total sweetheart at the vet or perfectly behaved in obedience class but all hell breaks loose at home? Like the time I bit my gramps WHILE he was giving me snacks?
The positive side of a 'One' dog name like Wally manifests itself in ambition, honesty, and loyalty to pack members. They are fair in their decisions and loyal pack mates to the end. The negative side may manifest itself in impatience or the need to totally dominate the family and any other pets in the household.I want to totally dominate my house? No, I want to totally dominate the WORLD!
ETA: Here's the link for the name site.

The Qatar Tourism Authority (QTA) is all set to launch a comprehensive strategy before the end of the year, in a move that aims to attract more foreign visitors to the state.
“Details of the ‘Qatar Tourism Sector Strategy 2030’ will be disclosed either in November or December,” QTA chairman Issa bin Mohamed al- Mohannadi said yesterday.
Part of the strategy will include “benchmarking and involving all its local stakeholders who have been working to develop destinations in Qatar for both domestic and international tourists”.
“Through this, we will be able to know what went wrong and what went right,” said al-Mohannadi who reiterated the importance of tourism programmes to the state’s economy as they created more jobs and various opportunities for people. He cited the case of countries like France, the US and China where tourism remained vibrant.
QTA also wants to promote domestic tourism, encouraging citizens and expatriates to visit local destinations instead of going abroad.
However, he reiterated that everyone had the right to travel and visit places abroad.
“There are about 83mn Chinese travelling the world but that doesn’t mean that China is failing in their (domestic) tourism programmes,” he said.
Describing tourism as the fastest-growing branch of economy, he said it also enhanced the country’s brand and created jobs.
Tourism, he pointed out, contributed at least 9.1% to global gross domestic product in 2011. At least 8.7% of the total employment also came from this sector in the same year and this translated to 255mn jobs.
In Qatar, al-Mohannadi noted that QTA had recorded a 16 to 17% increase in tourist arrivals from other GCC countries during the Eid al-Adha holidays compared to the previous year. The number of tourists outside the GCC visiting Qatar grew 7% .
Hotels in Doha, he said, had seen their occupancy rates rising to about 90% .
“QTA wants to contribute significantly to Qatar’s GDP,” he said.
From 0.7 to 0.8% in 2012, QTA is projecting a 2.9 to 3.3% growth by 2030. It also expects tourism-related jobs to grow from 19,000 in 2012 to 127,000 by 2030.
Al-Mohannadi disclosed that QTA was in the process of creating various products and services appealing to the international market.
“It is also banking on its human capital development which aims to enhance the capabilities of the people in various sectors.”
He said the new strategy had economic, cultural, social and environmental benefits as well.

This is a restaurant we always visit. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is first class. We ate there three times in the week and were impressed each time. Recommendations the paella, sole and sea bass choices were all excellent.
Food was very tasty and service was of a very high standard. Certainly one of the more authentic restaurants in the area however I found the prices to be very high and after having discovered a few restaurants away from the centre of town I...More
Fantastic restaurant, great fresh food.Very clean,lovely table settings, traditional Tapas. staff are so friendly and attentive
Ok restaurant but food just ok, waitress nearly fainted about the buggy position told to move it twice. Considering Cala D Or is a family place they seemed funny with taking a child in. Food was a bit tasteless but the wine was good.
We have been visiting Cala D'Or since 2005 and eaten at various restaurants but without doubt Ca'n Trompe is our favourite. It's serves excellent food, Mallorquin style. It complements this with great service from very professional staff.
First of all, you should make a reservation before going there. we did not, therefore we were asked to come back in half an hour. so we did. first impression you get is that everything is quite chaotic over there. You will be served by...More

Efficiency improvement in a pulp mill includes minimisation of environmental discharges simultaneously with the development of pulp quality and production economy. Material balances in production processes, including fate of sidestreams, are key in proceeding these matters. Different approaches of determining the material balances increase understanding of process behaviour. We have focused on measuring sidestream (carryovers, washing water, filtrate) dissolved organic matter (DOM) in fibreline unit process blocks of softwood ECF bleached kraft production. The DOM was analysed by traditional wastewater methods (volatile solids, organic carbon, chemical oxygen demand). The measured data was combined with primarily simulated water balances and routine operational mill data in a simulation model. From this balance, yield estimate included, lost organic matter through complete degradation (CD) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) can be calculated throughout the fibreline. The sensitivity of this considerable amount (23-35 kgDVS/adt in total) to various factors is discussed in this paper.

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN — Myanmar won a new diplomatic prize Thursday for its dramatic political reforms, taking the helm of Southeast Asia’s regional bloc despite warnings from some critics that the move was premature.
The one-time international pariah was formally awarded the rotating chair of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) for 2014 at the end of the group’s summit in the oil-rich sultanate of Brunei.
President Thein Sein said the theme of Myanmar’s chairmanship would be “moving forward in unity in a peaceful and prosperous community.”
The former general has earned international plaudits and the removal of most Western sanctions for reforms that include freeing hundreds of political prisoners.
Draconian media censorship has been scrapped and opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi and her National League for Democracy have been welcomed into parliament following landmark by-elections last year.
But the military and its political allies remain firmly in control of the country while religious violence and the continued arrests of activists have tempered optimism about the political changes.
Addressing Asean leaders in Brunei, UN leader Ban Ki-moon hailed Myanmar’s “unprecedented reform process.”
“However, I remain concerned about ongoing communal violence,” he added.
Around 250 people have been killed and more than 140,000 left homeless in several outbreaks of Buddhist-Muslim violence around the country since June 2012.
Critics said the decision to hand the reins to Myanmar highlighted the bloc’s wider disregard for human rights.
“Sadly, respect for human rights has never been an important qualification for being ASEAN chair,” said Phil Robertson, deputy Asia director at New York-based Human Rights Watch.
“Myanmar’s human rights record is still highly problematic but this is nothing that Asean ever had a problem with,” he told AFP.
“No one should forget that with a few exceptions, Asean continues to be a grouping of frequently dictatorial rights abusing states.”
In April, Human Rights Watch accused Myanmar of “a campaign of ethnic cleansing” against members of the Rohingya Muslim minority — an accusation rejected by Thein Sein as a “smear campaign.”
Communal unrest last year in the western state of Rakhine left about 200 people dead and up to 140,000 displaced, mainly Rohingyas, who are denied citizenship by Myanmar.
Since violence broke out there last year, thousands of Rohingya — including a growing number of women and children — have fled the conflict in rickety boats, many heading for Malaysia.
For years Myanmar was a source of embarrassment for Asean ‘s more democratic states, overshadowing other problem members such as communist Vietnam and Laos, which have significant human rights issues of their own.
In 2006, Myanmar was forced to renounce the Asean rotating presidency in the face of criticism over its human rights record and the then-ruling junta’s failure to shift to democracy.
The Philippines — one of the harshest critics within Asean of the former junta — noted in Brunei that the Myanmar military had relinquished some of its powers.
President Benigno Aquino told Thein Sein that the Philippines would support Myanmar’s chairmanship.
“I told him, ‘Thank you that you listened (to world opinion and took the reform path). We will help in order to show you that your decision is right’,” Aquino told reporters.
Along with the Asean chairmanship, Myanmar will host the East Asia Summit in 2014, which brings Asean members together with the United States, China and Russia, among others.
US Secretary of State John Kerry, speaking to students in Brunei on Wednesday, said Myanmar’s reforms were not yet complete, a day after the country released dozens more political prisoners.
“I think what is happening in Myanmar is very exciting, but it is incomplete,” Kerry said.
“Our hope is that the democracy will continue to evolve,” Kerry added.
Relations between the US and Myanmar — a traditional ally of China — have improved markedly since the end of military rule with US President Barack Obama making a historic visit there last year.

In the recent light of the tragic Texas Robb elementary school shooting; California State Senator Steven Bradford put out bill SB1273. This bill would take the mandatory requirement for schools to report any violent threat to the law enforcement away from schools; meaning schools don’t have to report these violent threats to law authorities.
With this removal of mandatory reports to the law, the schools leave themselves open to more school shootings or threats against the school itself. The removal makes schools way more unsafe to students and teachers and staff. Senator Melissa Melendez had some thoughts on the passing bill that eliminates the mandatory school reports to law enforcement, “I can’t believe that just two days after the heartbreaking events in Texas, the State Senate would pass a measure making our children less safe at school,” said Melendez. “Requiring teachers to report threats of violence in the classroom may be the only warning law enforcement has to prevent a future violent attack.”
Despite Melendez’s forceful opposition, the bill passed through the Senate. The California State Sheriffs association strongly opposed the bill saying, “School officials and law enforcement should work collaboratively, especially when it comes to students whose behavior violates the law and jeopardizes school safety,” and “Removing requirements that information about these incidents be shared with law enforcement runs counter to that notion and impedes law enforcement from being able to best protect our schools.”
This bill’s author, Senator Steven Bradford, clearly stated he wanted to make school comfortable for the students and not be fearful of threats, however, this bill invalidates what he said by not including law enforcement in school threats to students and faculty. Actively invalidating students’ safety in school, from what the CASSA says about this bill, “ School officials and law enforcement should work together to make sure students are safe in schools and don’t feel in danger if a threat presents itself.”
This bill directly affects students’ safety and trust in the school. If a student is threatening the school, their behavior should be reported to the authorities. If not, it could hinder or damage the safety of our kids in schools.

NASA Postpones NOAA-N Launch Additional 24 Hours
George H. Diller|
NASA Resident Office
Vandenberg Air Force Base, Calif.
NASA's launch of the NOAA-N polar-orbiting environmental weather satellite for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, previously scheduled for this morning, has been postponed an additional 24 hours. Higher-than-allowable winds prevented the rollback of the mobile service tower, the gantry surrounding the Boeing Delta II launch vehicle.
The surface winds at Space Launch Complex 2 at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California were observed to be approximately 30 knots Wednesday, above the wind constraint, and were forecasted to remain unchanged through the evening.
Launch has been rescheduled for Friday, May 13. The launch time remains unchanged at 3:22 a.m. PDT at the opening of a 10-minute launch window.
Wind conditions late this afternoon are presently forecast to be within limits at approximately 20 knots, and the chance of weather criteria violation drops to zero percent at launch time on Friday morning. Forecast models will be reviewed this afternoon for a final check before the tower rollback begins. This is currently planned to take place at about 6:30 p.m. after the RP-1 fuel is loaded aboard the Delta II first stage.
NASA Television coverage begins at 1 a.m. PDT Friday.

In this panel discussion, freelance IAs Sarah Rice, Whitney Hess, Jenn Anderson, and Christopher Fahey argue that Information Architects have an opportunity to structure and evolve their own work environment. There is potential to influence where they work, who they work with, the type of work they do, and for whom they do work.
This panel discusses what it is like to create ones own work environment – the motivation for taking this entrepreneurial path, what it has been like, what we’ve learned, and the ups and downs of such a work life.

Energy efficiency: how does your house rate? - Background Briefing - ABC Radio National (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
Want to avoid big power bills in your next home? The federal government wants all homes for sale or rent to have an energy efficiency rating. We already rate new homes, and the system is weeding out some power guzzling designs. But there are major flaws as well. Some super efficient designs don’t rate—and some six star homes are still substandard. So how do you find an energy efficient home? Reporter: Di Martin
As usual, microbes led the way. Bacteria have swarmed in intense networks for 3.5 billion years. Then a hierarchical form emerged with the first nucleated cells that were made up of an enclosed society of formerly independent organisms.
That’s the pattern for the evolution of information, Alex Wright said. Networks coalesce into hierarchies, which then form a new level of networks, which coalesce again, and so on. Thus an unending series of information explosions is finessed.
In humans, classification schemes emerged everywhere, defining how things are connected in larger contexts. Researchers into “folk taxonomies” have found that all cultures universally describe things they care about in hierarchical layers, and those hierarchies are usually five layers deep.
Family tree hierarchies were accorded to the gods, who were human-like personalities but also represented various natural forces.
Starting 30,000 years ago the “ice age information explosion” brought the transition to collaborative big game hunting, cave paintings, and elaborate decorative jewelry that carried status information. It was the beginning of information’s “release from social proximity.”
5,000 years ago in Sumer, accountants began the process toward writing, beginning with numbers, then labels and lists, which enabled bureaucracy. Scribes were just below kings in prestige. Finally came written narratives such as Gilgamesh.
The move from oral culture to literate culture is profound. Oral is additive, aggregative, participatory, and situational, where literate is subordinate, analytic, objective, and abstract. (One phenomenon of current Net culture is re-emergence of oral forms in email, twittering, YouTube, etc.)
Wright honored the sequence of information-ordering visionaries who brought us to our present state. In 1883 Charles Cutter devised a classification scheme that led in part to the Library of Congress system and devised an apparatus of keyboard and wires that would fetch the desired book. H.G. Wells proposed a “world brain” of data and imagined that it would one day wake up. Teilhard de Chardin anticipated an “etherization of human consciousness” into a global noosphere.
The greatest unknown revolutionary was the Belgian Paul Otlet. In 1895 he set about freeing the information in books from their bindings. He built a universal decimal classification and then figured out how that organized data could be explored, via “links” and a “web.” In 1910 Otlet created a “radiated library” called the Mundameum in Brussels that managed search queries in a massive way until the Nazis destroyed the service. Alex Wright showed an astonishing video of how Otlet’s distributed telephone-plus-screen system worked.
Wright concluded with the contributions of Vannevar Bush (”associative trails” in his Memex system), Eugene Garfield’s Science Citation Index, the predecessor of page ranking. Doug Engelbart’s working hypertext system in the “mother of all demos.” And Ted Nelson who helped inspire Engelbart and Berners-Lee and who Wright considers “directly responsible for the generation of the World Wide Web.”
A panel discusses the work of one of Britain’s most original and enduring architects and explores how his architecture – both built and unbuilt – has left its mark on our imaginations. Contributors include Ptolemy Dean, Iain Sinclair and Elizabeth McKellar. Chaired by Owen Hopkins.

Shadowrun Online Kickstarter Is Running Out Of Time
Author: William Usher
published: 2012-08-07 13:18:42
With a plot seemingly from a cyber-punk movie, Shadowrun Online only has seven days left until the Kickstarter ends, for better or for worse. The project is only halfway complete and the team is scrambling to secure funding any way they can, so they turn to a Reddit AMA to kick up a bit of a fuss.
The AMA is scheduled to take place August 8th 3 pm EST on reddit.com. Gamers, cyberpunk fans and MMO fanatics are all welcome to join in to ask questions and get informed about the not-quite-kickstarted project.
In addition to the AMA, two new developer diaries have been released to detail additional aspects of the game, including how different character classes can interact with the world in different ways. Check e'm out below.
The whole concept being able to bribe, sweet talk or hack your way around certain situations and out of various circumstances is a welcomed change to the typical “blast e'm all” mentality we've been given in most games. I nearly forgot that there was even such a thing as multiple choice in games outside of the dialogue options in Mass Effect.
The real highlight of Shadowrun Online is the atmosphere. I really dig the cyberpunk look and feel of the world, which seems to be lacking in today's games as well. Then again, we still have Shadowrun and Cyberpunk on the horizon, so it's not all bad.
You can learn more about Shadowrun Online by paying a visit to the game's Official Kickstarter Page. With seven days to go and only $250,000 in, they're definitely going to need a little help.

This camera dates from the very late 1930s – the model was introduced in 1938. The camera is very similar to my Balda Baldina – the Jubilette was a cheaper option but it is still well made. The Compur shutter has a serial number that should be able to date the camera but the serial number is anomalous – ‘0016596. The ’00 signifies the size of the shutter – size 00 – and the next five digits are the serial number. Usually, the number on Compur shutters will have seven digits starting with a ‘4’ or ‘5’ (‘4’ for 1938, ‘5’ for 1939 or the war years). Occasionally, Compur shutters are known with five digit serial numbers. One thought is that the serial number refers to a batch of shutters specially made for Balda rather than being a part of Compur’s standard serial number system.
The camera is a folder of a fairly standard design. The lens standard is opened by a button on the top of the camera – the lens snaps forward with some vigour into its operating position. The struts holding the lens and lens board in position are nicely chrome plated and both the lens and the lens board are held rigid.
Balda Jubilette in the open position, seen from the top.
As the shutter is a Compur, the cocking lever moves clockwise (which is upwards when holding this camera for use). This is the opposite direction to Gauthier (Prontor) shutters which cock anti-clockwise. The shutter release button is on the lens board by the hinge. On later versions of the Jubilette, this was moved to the camera body. This is on the left of the the camera and needs to be operated with the left hand. I prefer this arrangement as it allows more space for my right hand to hold the camera steady. Several of my folders have the lens board hinged on the right which leaves my right hand being very cramped.
Camera from the front, ready to use.
The lens is a Baltar (it was de rigueur to end a lens name with the letters ‘-ar’ – Nettar, Novar, Elmar, Radionar, Tessar, Skopar, Frontar and so on) which was made for Balda by one of the independent lens makers. Balda did not make their own lenses and may have used more than one manufacturer to make their ‘own label’ lenses for them.
The controls on the body follow the Baldina layout. In the middle of the top is a very small reverse Galilean viewfinder – it is slightly to the left of centre. On the left of the top is the rewind key – this dates the camera to an early Jubilette as later versions had a rewind knob rather than key. On the right of the top is a frame counter. This counts up – so it tells you how many pictures you have taken and needs to be set to zero when you load a new film. This counter is covered with a yellow plastic disc (probably celluloid given the age of the camera). Beside the frame counter is a small brass button which releases the lens board.

On the base of the camera is the film advance knob – it is opposite the frame counter on the camera top i.e. on the right-hand end of the base. Beside the film advance knob is a small button which must be pressed and released in order to free the advance mechanism inside the camera. This button is not sprung (at least not with my camera) and drops down under gravity. This is important as it means that the film must be advanced with the camera held the right way up: the button dropping down again locks the advance mechanism when one frame has been advanced, if you hold the camera upside down (which makes turning the knob easier) you can advance right to the end of the film. Note: examining photographs of Balda Jubilettes on Google has lead me to think my camera is missing a spring and a top to the button. The button that I have is threaded inside – indicating that a screw-on cap is missing and I suspect that a coil spring used to sit between the missing cap and the camera body. On the other end of the base is a 3/8 inch tripod boss. This has a large adaptor in it with my camera reducing the boss to 1/4 inch Whitworth which is the modern tripod standard.
Balda Jubilette – rear view
The back of the camera is a hinged door. This has the maker’s name embossed in the leatherette (Balda plus a small logo) and in the centre of the back is an aluminium plate printed with a depth of field table (Tiefenschärfentabelle). The catch for the back is spring loaded and a little bit too small for comfortable use with my large fingers (but a big improvement on my Voigtlander Vito II which opens itself). Fastened to either end of the catch is a small carrying handle which is a bit too small for practical use. The front of the camera has the model name embossed in the leatherette (Jubilette). In the front of the lens board is a hinged peg which acts as a leg to stand the camera on when taking self-portraits.
The body of the camera is made of steel – demonstrated by the fact that it is starting to rust in places. Inside, the film guides and covers over the mechanics are made from brass sheet painted a semi-matt black. The take-up spool is also painted brass.
Focussing is smooth but has the disadvantage of having the distance pointer beneath the lens. This means that you have to turn the camera to set the focus – not a major problem on an entirely manual camera. Worse is the aperture scale – the white paint in the stamped figures has almost entirely gone making the scale very hard to read. Even worse is the position of of the adjusting pointer. This is very close to the lens board. Getting your finger in there to adjust the aperture means you have no chance of reading the scale. This fault lies with Deckel (the maker of Compur shutters) as they must have known their shutters would be used on folding cameras.
The body of this camera is identical to that of the earlier and more expensive Baldina. It is the details that are cheaper: the viewfinder has no parallax adjustment (although this was available as an extra), the lens is a Baltar triplet, the frame counter is more functional (it lacks the Baldina’s cover and ornate pointer), the exposed metal is painted black rather than being chrome plated. On the plus side, it has a body shutter release (although I think the Baldina also had one by 1938) which is much easier to use than the extended lever on the shutter housing that my 1935 Baldina has.
Jubilette in use.
In many ways, this is an archetypical 35mm folder. My Voigtlander Vito II is much the same size and has a similar too-small viewfinder. The biggest problem I have with cameras of this date is the viewfinder. I just cannot use them while wearing my glasses. Without my glasses I cannot see the image through the viewfinder although I sometimes think that having to concentrate on general outlines and shapes improves my composition – perhaps looking at the details gets in the way.
I have been using cameras with self-cocking shutters lately and I keep forgetting to cock the shutter – this does nothing for hitting that ‘decisive moment’! I also press the door opening button on the right hand end of the top of the camera with my right fore finger instead of the shutter release button on the left. If I was using this camera exclusively, that would soon sort itself out.
I have had two problems with camera; both are probably a result of its age. The first is the shutter release mis-locating itself when the lens door opens. This might have been down to my slightly depressing the shutter release button when opening the door. It can certainly be cured by closing the lens door and opening it again.
The second problem is the mechanism that ensures that you wind on exactly one frame – this is exactly eight sprocket holes. The shaft with the sprockets has eight sprockets on it, so advancing one frame needs the sprocket shaft to rotate exactly one revolution. When Balda designed this camera they had to work around patents owned by Leica, Zeiss Ikon and Kodak (and probably others) so they could not use an obvious and sensible system. The system that Balda designed involves pressing a button as soon as you start to advance the film and then immediately releasing the button and allowing it to ‘pop-out’ again while you continue to wind-on the film. On my particular camera it is necessary to give the camera a sharp slap to get the button to ‘pop-out’ again. I am not sure if the button is supposed to be sprung or if the camera relies on gravity – either way, it does not work without encouragement. This is not a major problem but it does slow things down a bit. See note in blue above.
What has surprised me is that I have found the depth of field table on the back of the camera to be quite useful. The results of using it can be seen in the close-ups of flowers below.
In conclusion, this camera is still very usable. It has no bells or whistles and requires the user to think for himself but for me that is no bad thing.
First a few pictures that show how well this 76 year-old camera still works. Focus is good (it is a scale focus camera so I did not really know this until I saw the pictures), little distortion (the arch in the first picture is bowed itself – it is not the lens), and colour rendition is fine even though the lens design pre-dates the use of colour film. I am very pleased with these.
Coloured primroses – distance for the focus was guessed together with a small aperture.
Bright Lincoln street – no flare

Now a few pictures that are not so good. First, this lens will not cope with photographing into the light. The lens is not coated at all (as was usual in 1938) and is showing significant flare. As with using all old cameras, I need to follow my father’s advice when I was ten or so – “always keep the sun behind you.”
Sunny day in Lincoln.
This next picture shows what often happens when you use the first film in a very old camera. Winding the film causes a small amount of static electricity on the film’s surface. This static electricity attracts any dirt lurking inside the camera, showing here as many black specks in the sky.
Lincolnshire field with a dirty sky.
This last picture shows how difficult it can be guessing close distances. The thing to do here would be to carry a yard-stick and accurately measure the distance but that is not how I work. I guessed and relied on the depth of field keeping everything in focus. It did not work here!
