Copa Airlines reschedules return to Jamaica
The Jamaican Government’s extension of a travel ban from a number of Latin American countries has resulted in Copa Airlines pushing back its resumption of scheduled flights to Kingston and Montego Bay by three months.
News of the setback comes as the Panamanian carrier announced that as of June 5 it will restart flights from Panama, connecting with the main cities of Latin America to Nassau, The Bahamas.
Prior to the emergence of the novel coronavirus pandemic, Copa Airlines operated daily service to Montego Bay using an A320 aircraft seating up to 180 passengers. The airline also operated four scheduled flights weekly to Kingston — Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays — on an Embraer E190 aircraft with a seating capacity of 106 passengers.
However, the closure of Jamaica’s borders last year due to COVID-19 affected flights from a number of countries, including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, and Peru. That travel ban remains in effect until June 30 this year, disrupting the resumption of service Copa had set for today and tomorrow.
The carrier had originally planned to resume twice-weekly flights to Kingston, starting today, using a Boeing 737-800 with a passenger capacity of 189, through to August 30.
However, because of the travel ban extension, Copa has now advised that it will start four weekly flights to Kingston using an Embraer E190 aircraft with a seating capacity of 106 passengers on September 1.
The Montego Bay service, which should have resumed tomorrow, is also projected to start on September 1 daily, using an Embraer E190 aircraft that seats up to 106 passengers.
The schedules, though, are “subject to change based on any adjustments to COVID-19 protocols”.
Responding to the Copa development, Jamaica Hotel and Tourist Association (JHTA) President Clifton Reader noted that the ban on travel from South America to Jamaica has resulted in severely reduced load factors for Copa, the main airline bringing passengers via the Panama hub to Jamaica.
“The bulk of these passengers are traditionally business and commercial travellers from Brazil and Chile. The ban also affects tourist traffic to our island from countries like Aruba and Curacao,” he said.
“Copa Airlines also typically brings a lot of business persons to Jamaica from Mexico, which is not one of the countries banned from travel to Jamaica. However, most of these persons would come here for three to four days, but due to our quarantine restrictions they deem travel to Jamaica at this time as unfeasible,” he added.
Reader said the JHTA recognises that as Jamaica works assiduously to contain and reduce the incidence of COVID-19, the authorities will monitor similar strategies in countries on which bans have been imposed.
“It is our hope that with the roll-out of aggressive vaccination programmes the countries of South America will also begin to see an appreciable reduction in cases of COVID-19, improvements in recovery rates, and decreased death tolls.
“When this happens, we have no doubt that in due time the Government may see it fit to lift the ban on travel from South America to Jamaica. Increased load factors to the island will, no doubt, result in increased service by Copa Airlines to Jamaica,” Reader said.
Yesterday, Eyewitness News in The Bahamas reported that Copa will initially operate flights to Nassau Saturdays and Mondays and, as of June 17, will provide service on Sundays and Thursdays.
Copa’s return of service to Nassau follows British Airways’ resumption of direct flights from the United Kingdom earlier this week on a once-weekly schedule.
“We are pleased to announce that on June 5 we will resume our regular operation to Nassau with two flights per week so that tourists can enjoy wonderful days of rest and experience unforgettable holidays in The Bahamas…” Eyewitness News quotes Copa Airlines Vice-President of Global Sales Christophe Didier.
He also said that, as of May 1, passengers with a full COVID-19 vaccination certificate — including the second dose, if applicable — are exempt from the negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test requirement, as long as they have been vaccinated at least 14 days prior to entry into The Bahamas.
Passengers who do not fit this profile, including people who have received vaccines other than those mentioned, will also be welcomed in The Bahamas by submitting a negative PCR test taken up to five days before their trip, in addition to applying online for their health visa and completing the daily health questionnaire, Eyewitness News reported.
The Copa development has delivered another blow to Jamaica’s airlift problem following on American Airlines’ reduction of service to Kingston from four weekly flights pre-COVID-19 to one.
Yesterday, a travel industry official told the Jamaica Observer that the nightly curfew, plus the quarantine period for incoming passengers have affected business travel to Kingston.
The effect of the cut will also be felt particularly during the summer, the usual peak travel period when hundreds of Jamaicans living in the US would normally visit. Additionally, ticket prices have increased.
“I tried booking for July and the cost was US$1,500,” said the official, who opted not to be named. “Nobody is going to buying a ticket for more than US$1,000, worse if you have a family of four.”
He said while he supported the Government’s efforts to protect the country from further spread of the novel coronavirus, the Administration has to consider the fact that some of the measures it has implemented are placing Jamaica in a difficult position in relation to visitor traffic.
“If American moves that flight to Kingston to, say, Tulsa, and it proves profitable, we won’t be seeing that flight again,” he said. “So the value of the airlift is that once you have it you have to secure it.”

As we continue to witness the profound impact of AI on organizations, it’s fascinating, of course—but also increasingly important for managers to consider how different generations perceive these emerging technologies. You might assume that younger generations that have grown up with technology playing an integral part of their lives would naturally be the most enthusiastic about AI.
Contrary to popular belief, Gen Zers are not quite as optimistic about AI tools as their millennial counterparts. In fact, research by Statista indicates that Gen Z views AI with less optimism than most might assume.
A recent survey by my company, Croud, further highlights this fact, revealing that only 65% of Gen Z respondents view AI positively, compared to a whopping 81% of millennials. They’re more skeptical about this sort of tech—but they also feel justified about that skepticism.
This revelation raises questions. Namely, how should we interpret this data, and secondly, what factors might be contributing to this (admittedly unexpected) trend? And perhaps most importantly, what can managers learn from this and what actions should they take in light of these fresh findings?
With that in mind, we’ve outlined a blueprint for better understanding your Gen Z team members.
RECOGNIZE WHY GEN Z HAS A MORE NUANCED VIEW ON AI
The way different generations perceive technology is influenced by the era in which they grew up. While Gen Zers are certainly tech-savvy and aware of AI’s potential, they also seem to have a heightened awareness of its potential drawbacks and limitations.
A study conducted by Cornell University and FreedomPay found that Gen Z is actually more cautious when it comes to sharing their data compared to millennials or boomers. As far as why this might be the case, let’s not forget that they’ve been exposed to complex issues around privacy, security, and bias, which have become even more pressing in recent years.
In practice, start by tapping them for their insights. This doesn’t mean you need to shift your approach at any cost, but showing that you’re taking what they have to say into consideration can go a long way toward keeping them invested.
Recognize that their concerns around AI won’t always look the same in the sense that AI can also be used in playful, lighthearted ways and they may respond in kind. Listen, observe, and respond with nuance yourself.
APPRECIATE GEN Z’S ABILITY TO SERVE AS BIAS CHECKERS
Let’s face it. AI is powerful, but it’s not infallible, as indicated by ChatGPT’s warning: “May occasionally produce harmful instructions or biased content.” That’s why we still need human bias checkers to ensure that the content produced by AI is inclusive and doesn’t perpetuate harmful stereotypes or biases.
As the most diverse generation to date, Gen Z’s perspectives on this matter are especially valuable. Stanford University reported that Gen Z had an amazing advantage growing up in the digital age and was exposed to different cultures and people from an early age, thanks to the internet. This exposure fostered a deep appreciation for diversity and taught them the value of embracing their own unique identities.
They are hyperaware of the issues related to DE&I, and they often demand that brands, employers, and governments do what it takes to conquer bias. This means that they will be on the lookout for how you, as a company, proactively address bias. Are you adjusting your algorithms for bias? Are you using tools to check for bias around language and terminology? Using an inclusive language checker is an incredible strategy when it comes to internal and external messaging—and it’s also an easy one to implement as well.
OBSERVE HOW GEN Z PLACES A HEIGHTENED VALUE ON CREATIVITY
As impressive as AI can be, there is still a limit to its creativity, and that’s where humans come in. Experts point out a fundamental difference: AI technology falls short in replicating that “special” human touch—the essence that emanates from our interactions with the world, our emotional journeys, and those “aha!” moments. That’s what sets us apart from the algorithms. Creativity is an integral part of our being, and as managers, we need to recognize and encourage the creative work that our people have to offer.
Right now, AI can help us handle mundane and repetitive tasks, freeing us up to focus on the aspects that require our creativity and innovative powers. The outcome? A more diverse, engaged workplace, where employees feel valued for their unique perspectives and ideas.
That said, as AI evolves, we’re also witnessing an intriguing phenomenon—the way AI can streamline the creative process for us humans, particularly when it comes to ideation. For instance, ChatGPT excels at generating catchy article titles based on keywords, giving the ideation process a turbo boost and maximizing efficiency, especially when paired with skillful prompts. Midjourney can visualize what’s in your head in seconds, a profound change to the creative process and timeline. But these are not to be taken as “in lieu of,” but rather, “in addition to.”
Treat AI as an ally—an asset which can help you and your team unlock a world where imagination and innovation thrive with greater freedom and flexibility. Go out of your way to encourage team members to tap into their creative geniuses and ensure that you demonstrate the value you place on them doing so.
BE EXTRA SENSITIVE AROUND AI ADOPTION
Instead of jumping headfirst into AI, Gen Z is prompting their managers to be more thoughtful and sensitive in their approach. By taking into account the potential challenges and complexities, organizations can ensure that the implementation of AI-based technologies is successful and beneficial for everyone involved, regardless of their age group.
For organizations, this means prioritizing training and education for everyone, which will allow them to have a better understanding of these technologies and how they fit into their day jobs. It’s crucial to rely on experts who have the skills to assess and guide us in this area, instead of leaving it to the masses to figure it out on their own, which could result in chaos at best.
Managers can lead in this way by tapping those who know how to use these tools to educate others and then stay close to the implementation process. This isn’t a “once and done” situation where you roll something out and then leave to its own devices.
We need to demonstrate how and where the company is harnessing this technology to level up our business and make our employees’ lives better and ensure they are bought into this as well.
A workforce equipped with the knowledge to use AI effectively is more likely to implement this technology to greater efficacy. And more efficient employees lead to more efficient work, happier clients, and customers. This is a win-win, all around, no matter the industry.

You know, there’s something vivid about the word “Cruiser”. It’s one of those words that conjures up the image of what it means: large and powerful, but unexpectedly agile and speedy for such a large ship. Perhaps you can see why I compared them to wolves. These ships are fairly capable of “solo performance” and acting independently from the rest of the fleet, while also being effective in supporting their fellows in “the pack”. Perhaps it is their versatility that makes it hard for players to clearly grasp how to best play these ships. The role is quite clear for battleships – they are mighty and huge, while destroyers are sneaky and light. How then should we assess cruisers?
Playing as a Medium was not the way…
When I was initially invited to the World of Warships Alpha Test, cruisers were the first ships that I set my eyes on. Back then, I was attracted by the low reloading time and thus the high rate of fire. Nine high-calibre barrels each firing a salvo every 10 seconds – this was surely no place for jokes! Their manoeuvrability was also impressive. Unfortunately my World of Tanks experience was of no use. Fighting with your cruiser the same way you would with medium tanks is a really bad idea. Just imagine that the IS-7 that you’re about to corner fires not one, but six shells at you when you approach it. This is what actually happened to me in those early battles.
My strongest memory of those failures is when I was destroyed by a single (supposedly blind) salvo from a distance of over 30km. Damn, I thought, this really must be a completely useless vessel. However, in the following battle it was me on my cruiser that whirled around an enemy battleship in the immunity zone, peppering it with my salvos and distracting it from my fellow carriers.
So where is the power, folks?
The cruiser’s real power is its versatility. Want to repel enemy aviation? Engage a destroyer? Meet an enemy battleship with an HE salvo? None of these are a problem for a cruiser! High manoeuvrability and acceleration allow these ships to effectively dodge battleship attacks, while striking back at them with HE shells and easily clearing the decks of everything that isn’t welded down properly. Japanese cruisers are also capable of carrying torpedo launchers, making it possible for them to block strategic approaches. In proper hands, cruisers are very powerful tools indeed.
One for all
A cruiser’s survival in 1-on-1 battles largely depends on the overall course of the battle. For example, a direct head-on advance towards a battleship will obviously be suicidal, especially if you’re far away from the rest of your team. Despite a number of decent cannons, that rapid reload time is still not fast enough to beat a battleship one-on-one. On the other hand, engaging an advancing destroyer is likely to be far more successful. The short reloading time allows cruisers to lock precisely on to a target within just a minute or so, ensuring the enemy ship will be met with a sufficient amount of shells.
Packs of cruisers are even more menacing. Their anti-aircraft effectiveness grows immensely in groups, and dense cannon fire can present a threat to any opponent. A single pair of Japanese “Takao” class cruisers can perform intense torpedo attacks just as well as destroyers. In addition, survivability within a group is much higher than when solo.
Now even more cruisers
Cruiser gameplay differs from ship to ship, depending on their construction and nationality. For instance, US ships are quite effective against enemy planes, whereas Japanese vessels possess somewhat weak artillery. However, those torpedo launchers compensate, allowing them to advance for aggressive attacks.
Captain, we have a ship full of noobs!
That versatility needs to be paid for. Essentially this means that you have to spend more time to master a cruiser. You need to spend your spare time tracking recon planes, aiming and shooting at destroyers while simultaneously dodging their return attacks – this is pretty complex activity for a newcomer. You’ll really need to be good at doing several things at once before you get your hands on a cruiser.
Take your time to master it and you’ll gradually become an advanced sailor. While they may be dynamic vessels, cruisers actually demand thoughtful and careful operation. These ships are precise tools to be used, sparingly and with exact timing.

Rick James Mary Jane will be forever used in the same sentence not only because this was the title of a well-known song of his, along with Super Freak, but also because it links the artist with drug abuse problems. Every time a Grand Theft Auto game appears, his music plays on its radio space and GTA V is no exception, thus reviving Rick James Mary Jane once again: the song, the girl band, the addiction.
Rick James’ Mary Jane song will live forever in his fans’ hearts, but his character and drug abuse affected his image so much that all the young people who know about him correlate his image with Dave Chappelle’s stand-up comedy and world-famous quote “Cocaine is a hell of a drug”. His drug addiction aggravated when James was spending over $10,000 per week on drugs, a situation which continued for five years in a row. Mary Jane and other drugs pushed him to assault two women: one during a drug spree and the other one after a business meeting. The second assaulted woman, Music Executive Mary Sauger told the press how James and his fiancee, Tanya Hijazi beat her up for almost a day. After the incident, James was sent to jail and spent two years in Folsom Prison.
During his career, Rick James’ Mary Jane became the cornerstone of his reputation and focused his entire universe around this name. While some voices argued that Mary Jane is an ode to marijuana, James even created a girl band named Mary Jane Girls. His name remains linked to this musical group until today; last year, his estate administrator banned two former Mary Jane Girls from reuniting, saying that the band’s name was still owned by James.
Rick James’ music is revived with every GTA game released, because his songs are part of at least three game’s radio space: San Andreas, Vice City and GTA V. Since the franchise’s creator, Rockstar Games wishes to include the best music from all genres in the game, James was a natural choice, especially Give It To Me Baby which was used for the fifth GTA.
Rick James’ Mary Jane was not only his love, but also his sentence to death; although a coroner’s report clearly stated that his death was accidental, “The King of Punk-Funk” had nine drugs in his system. His legal problems were mocked in the TV series “The Simpsons” and his personality was portrayed in Mike Tyson’s memoir, “Undisputed Truth.” According to the professional boxer, James had no respect for people.
If GTA V PC follows the pattern of the previous games and contains one of Rick James’ songs on its radio space, his connection to Mary Jane will once again be revived and all the publicity that revolves around his legal issues and drug abuse will go down as James’ legacy. Rick James’ Mary Jane song helped him reach the pinnacle of success, but at the same time it was also one of the drugs that contributed to his decline and demise.

Niagara Gazette — The spending plan does do its fair share of cutting positions in addition to raising taxes, eliminating or reducing 29 positions heading into next school year. Part of a four-year slash in staffing – mainly accomplished through attrition until the current year's budget called for layoffs – the plan affects several programs throughout each of the district's four buildings.
Superintendent Christopher Roser said the cuts to both teaching staff and the aides will cause dramatic differences, even with a tax increase over the state's levy limit.
"There will be a lack of flexibility," Roser said. "It will cause some kids to be forced to not take some of the classes they'll want to take. And the big one which has everyone from teachers to support staff worried is the aide situation. They are the ones who fill in the cracks of the wall. We'll be cutting them which means less of them. We've reduced our funding for substitute teachers, meaning if teachers call in sick, there will be classes canceled and kids will be taken to the cafeteria. It's not the ideal situation, but it's what we have to deal with."
The district is where it stands not because of spending too much, officials said Tuesday. What ails Lewiston-Porter is actually the revenues it is receiving. Following the implementation of then-Gov. David Paterson's gap elimination adjustment to aid to schools from Albany in 2009, the district has been unable to collect more than $9 million.
Roser said continuing to take money from the state level only cause a double-sided issue for the district and every other school district throughout the state. It's like being caught between a rock and a hard place, Roser said.
"You just can't take $9 million from a $40 million budget and not expect something to happen," he said. "We've been living in our budget, in our means, since it was created. We've spent money from our unreserved fund, which was $1.8 million. We've been reducing staff. But we couldn't do it anymore."Contact reporter Timothy Chipp at 282-2311, ext. 2251 or follow on Twitter @timchipp.

SHRIMP U-Pb Dating of Zircon Inheritance in Walash ArcVolcanic Rocks (Paleogene Age), Zagros Suture Zone, NE Iraq: New Insights into Crustal Contributions to Trachytic Andesite Generation
Iraqi National Journal of Earth Science,
2013, Volume 13, Issue 1, Pages 45-58
SHRIMP U-Pb ages were determined on single zircon grains separated from combined samples (i.e. GA8-GA9) belonging to a trachytic andesite, Galalah area,Walash arc volcanic rocks, Northwestern Zagros Suture Zone, NE Iraq. The rock suite in the studied area ranges from calc-alkaline to alkaline (i.e., Ga8-Ga9). The New reconnaissance SHRIMP U-Pb zircon ages of GA8 - GA9 reveal two episodes of Palaeoproterozoic inherited zircon growth:
1- 1953±39 Ma cores.
2- ca. 1777±28 Ma rims. This provides evidence for the ancestry of terrane
(i.e. crystalline basement).
which had been pervasively overprinted by Mesoproterozoic thermal events that facilitate the growth of zircon rims.The cathodoluminescence (CL) images show no evidence of the zircon growth during Tertiary magmatism. The rims are wide and darker in CL compared to the cores. The oscillatory zoned cores probably grew from magma of probably dioritic to gabbroic in composition, due to the high zircon Th/U ratio of ~1. The lower Th/U and high-U zircon rims could have grown in a superimposed migmatitic event with the growth of new zircon in localised melting. The core-rim pair of analyses is interpreted as indicating that the zircons are inherited / recycled Paleogene magma due to crustal contamination. The Palaeoproterozoic U-Pb zircon age may be correlated with the Khida terrane (1800-1650 Ma), in the north-westernmost portion of the ‘‘Arabian Craton’’ in Saudi Arabia. Here, a thinned Palaeoproterozoic continental basement fragment in Neo-Tethys might have contaminated the upwelling calc-alkaline magma before erupting.

It is easy for a company to grab headlines by making big announcements or radically changing tack, and there is a danger that vendor conferences try and do that, not always with justification. At the recent Pulse 2012 conference in Las Vegas IBM did not radically change tack. In fact, ‘Consistent’ is one of the words that I would use if I had to sum up my overall impression of the event.
This is not to say that Danny Sabbah the general manager of Tivoli and his management team didn’t have anything new to say or add. On the contrary, what was announced showed recognition of the business transformations underway within many organizations and the need for infrastructures that are not only flexible and adaptable to changing environments, but can extend to all connecting points. Security, flexibility and mobility are the driving aims of a customer audience faced with maximizing competing technology concerns.
The move towards managing and supporting the “infrastructure everywhere” concept IBM discussed at Pulse 2012 might even appear like a new angle of approach. In reality it is a reaffirmation of the core direction the Tivoli group has embarked on for some time now. The smarter computing announcements made during the event honed the vision for optimum leverage of smart infrastructure services, whilst the message of collaborative development and operations reinforced connected lifecycle management processes.
Familiar maxims that reassure
Consistent throughout IBM’s messaging at Pulse were three core maxims to drive customer and portfolio focus: Visibility, Control and Automation. These are considered critical mechanisms for delivering the operational flexibility and cost efficiencies required of infrastructure and management services attuned to the major technology, social and workforce trends impacting organizations across the industry and market landscape.
Anyone who has been following the IBM Software Group’s direction in recent years, particularly those parts of the organization that address software delivery and lifecycle management, will recognize reoccurring themes of approach and focus. All of which adds a level of confidence in the long-term goals and execution aims around the Tivoli portfolio.
Looking at the topic focus of Pulse 2012, it was not surprising that Cloud computing, Mobile, Security and Smarter Physical Infrastructure services dominated. Nor did the need for greater collaboration between development and operations go unchecked. The insight from numerous C-level studies, as delivered by IBM’s Senior Vice President, Middleware Software Robert Le Blanc in his keynote address, highlight “recognition for transforming the economics of IT backed innovations along with the need for improving the speed of delivery and optimizing the agility of the business services and value chain”.
A client feedback panel on day two of the conference provided candid and pragmatic insights into the approaches adopted by customer groups for addressing the core technology trends and the strategies employed to resolve common challenges and issues. In fact, the customer support/references at Pulse 2012 (as it was at Pulse 2011) were noteworthy as some 85% of all conference sessions were directed from customer case studies.
Smart options for developers
As hard as it is to detail all the different focus areas of a conference, Pulse 2012 did well to serve solutions and portfolio directions in a number of core development areas.
For example, IT development and operational organizations will be reassured of the continued alignment, integration and interoperability between the Rational and Tivoli portfolios. With the game changing nature of Cloud computing, putting in place the mechanism for development teams to take advantage of the fast provisioning of infrastructure services that the Cloud model enables is crucial. This is especially the case for a smooth and effective transition to Cloud delivery and consumption.
The announcement of the SmartCloud Continuous Delivery beta and the SmartCloud Provisioning product serve to apply a much needed collaborative developer and operations perspective to the Cloud computing model. Addressing agility across the application and service lifecycle is undoubtedly the essential goal for improving collaboration and interactions between development and operations.
Additionally, Pulse 2012 provided an opportunity to review the status of recent IBM acquisitions, such as Rational’s purchase of Green Hat and its end-to-end test simulation services. The integration of Green Hat into the Rational group continues to be on track with Peter Cole, Green Hat’s founder, stepping into the director role for the quality management team. The move to use Green Hat’s test simulation facilities to support continuous testing of environments that cannot be physically or easily made available highlights IBM’s focus on extending and evolving quality management facilities in-line with core application trends.
IBM’s Jazz platform continues to be unifying strategy and vision that serves to further the claim of “Rationalization” of the Tivoli portfolio. The profile of the interoperability framework of the Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) was also given significant prominence in the development and operations collaboration services for both SmartCloud Continuous Delivery and Provisioning. Going forward customer audiences can expect to see more emphasis on methodologies for using tools on Jazz.
The mobile directive
The mobility announcements at Pulse 2012 showed a good start to what is clearly set to become a game changing platform and service for IBM and possibly the industry. There was consistent emphasis on the messaging around addressing future challenges and needs of businesses in a world that is ever more connected, social, and mobile.
IBM‘s long held enterprise mobility portfolio and strategy exposes its strength in managing data integration and back office communications and integration. The company’s recent acquisition of WorkLight adds the necessary credentials of a mobile application platform product that delivers cross platform capabilities for common service functions, as well as services optimized for native platform delivery. The end point management facilities demonstrated at Pulse 2012 clearly showed that IBM confidently understands mobility compliance and governance requirements along with enterprises’ needs for strong security and privacy. All of which played very well with an audience group that ranks confidence as a high priority and often too scarce commodity.
Mobility, however, is so much more than a technology strategy. Experience and engagement and user centricity are core components for deriving value from mobile platforms. Certainly there is nothing new to this point. In fact, one might even ask why it has taken IT organizations so long to understand or recognize something so obvious when it comes to addressing and serving customer needs and expectations. Game developers have long understood the tenets of user centricity. Even more so, they deliver when looking to support consistent experience and engagement across multiple platforms while serving a wide variety of devices platforms, form factors and processing capabilities. If gamers can do it successfully, why can’t enterprises?
IBM has been intelligent with its mobile technology efforts and acquisitions but must now show that it can deliver a smarter strategy for engaging the mobile community and helping enterprise organizations understand the importance of that approach.
Business connections and continuity
In the past, the important role technology plays towards driving productivity, agility, innovation, and growth within organizations has headlined many of the messages marketed by IBM Software’s various brand groups. The focus at Pulse 2012 saw a necessary and valuable emphasis on business context.
The driving beat for Pulse 2012 was “Business without limits”. This is certainly a rousing message that depicts the aspirations of many organizations in the face of ever increasing technological advances, data explosions, social collaborations, and communication connectivity. However, the company should take care that the notion of “without limits” does not devolve to “without focus”.
Tivoli’s Danny Sabbah continues with a strategy that has its hallmark from his leadership of the Rational portfolio. Shifting the focus of Rational beyond development to software delivery as a managed collaborative business process is no less different to the direction that he and his team want to take the Tivoli management and monitoring services and solutions.
Pulse 2012 also struck a good balance in maintaining the consistency of IBM’s driving technology themes, and the organizational and social transformations that are influencing and unifying the strategies and portfolio directions of the company’s Software Group.
The kind of “business as usual” message that was so common at IBM’s Pulse 2012, might not generate much in the way of headlines but it is the consistency of message and execution that ultimately helps to build confidence and customer engagements.

Officers clear out ‘disheartening’ Brampton house party with 200 attendees
Compliance & Enforcement COVID-19 Physical Distancing
No criminal charges laid, but organizer was fined $880
BRAMPTON, Ont. — Police west of Toronto say bylaw officers broke up a house party attended by as many as 200 people on Saturday night.
Peel Regional Police say the partygoers in Brampton, Ont., were violating provincial emergency orders enacted because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Peel Region remains in Stage 2 of the province’s reopening plan, limiting gatherings to a maximum of 10 people with physical distancing in effect.
Police say nearby residents called in to report the party just before 10 p.m., and bylaw officers arrived on scene about an hour later. They say it took another hour to clear out the party.
Police say they didn’t lay criminal charges, but a spokesperson for the City of Brampton says the organizer was issued a fine of $880 and will also be charged under the public nuisance bylaw.
Const. Kyle Villers of Peel police called the incident “disheartening.”
“It shows the complete disregard for the health and well-being of everybody in Brampton,” he said. “To have a party with this many people giving the state of the world with COVID-19 is a ripe opportunity for another outbreak.”
Villers said it only takes one person to show symptoms to have hundreds of cases come out, which affects the greater community.

I am pleased to announce that I have been appointed as the President of the 39th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Toxicologic Pathology. The meeting will be held on January 25 (Wed.) and 26 (Thu.), 2023, in Tower Hall Funabori (Edogawa-ku, Tokyo) in a hybrid format that will allow participants to attend both on-site and online. In addition, the 35th Slide Conference and the Commentary Session of the latest JSTP Diplomate Examination will be held on Tuesday, January 24.
The theme of the conference is "The Challenge of Toxicologic Pathology: Inheritance of Tradition and Innovation for the Next Generation". Toxicologic Pathology is the study of evaluating the risks of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, food-related substances, and environmental chemicals to humans by using morphological methods based on an academic system of accumulating scientific findings developed over many years. Toxicologic Pathology is also characterized by the ability to use various related techniques as needed to add precision to morphological assessments and to cut into toxicological mechanisms. The Japanese Society of Toxicologic Pathology was established for the evolution and development of Toxicologic Pathology, and has produced many important study findings and contributed both academically and socially. In recent years, Toxicologic Pathology has needed to develop not only the development of pathological evaluation methods for new modalities, but also in new areas such as the elucidation of toxicological mechanisms incorporating imaging and spatial gene expression analysis techniques, and the challenge of improving human extrapolation using Genome Editing Technology. By setting the above theme, this scientific meeting will introduce new technologies that are expected to play a role in the future of Toxicologic Pathology and evolving risk assessment based on the tradition, along with efforts related to the inheritance of the tradition of Toxicologic Pathology that has been cultivated over the years. We also aim to contribute to the development of a creative academic field.
We hope this meeting will allow our members to actively present the results of their daily research and engage in a lively exchange of ideas and opinions. We look forward to your active participation.

Moreover, by opting for a domestic wedding, Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani are setting an example for their peers in the entertainment industry, encouraging them to consider India as a preferred destination for their personal and professional endeavors. This shift has the potential to boost domestic tourism, stimulate local businesses, and create employment opportunities across various sectors, aligning with the government’s vision of a self-reliant and resilient India.
The decision to change their wedding destination from abroad to India also reflects the couple’s deep-rooted connection to their homeland and their desire to give back to the communities that have supported them throughout their careers. As public figures with a considerable following, Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani recognize the power of their influence and are using it to promote causes that resonate with the aspirations and values of their fellow citizens.
In a country where weddings are not just private affairs but grand celebrations that bring together families, friends, and communities, Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani’s decision to host their wedding in India symbolizes a celebration of unity, diversity, and togetherness. Their wedding festivities are likely to serve as a showcase of Indian hospitality and cultural richness, reinforcing the country’s status as a preferred destination for memorable events and celebrations.
As Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani embark on this new chapter of their lives, their decision to host their wedding in India serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of embracing one’s roots, supporting local industries, and contributing to the nation’s growth and development. Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a resurgent India, the couple’s choice reflects a renewed sense of pride and optimism in the country’s potential and possibilities.
In addition, Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani’s decision to change their wedding destination from abroad to India underscores their commitment to Indian values, traditions, and economic prosperity.

A tea party leader in Oklahoma has been charged with two felonies after threatening to turn a Republican state senator into a "laughing stock" if he did not push a bill to block the United Nations sustainability plan known as Agenda 21.
Local prosecutors charged Al Gerhart, the head of the Sooner Tea Party, with blackmail and violating Oklahoma's Computer Crimes Act following an email he sent to state Sen. Cliff Branan (R-Oklahoma City), in which he also threatened to start investigating Branan's family and friends, Newsok.com reports. Gerhart wanted Branan, the chairman of the state Senate Energy and Environment Committee, to hold a hearing on the anti-Agenda 21 bill.
Gerhart later claimed that Branan didn't hold the hearing because he didn't want details of an extramarital affair coming out. Branan responded that he hasn't had an affair, and Gerhart admitted that he had no proof of any affair.
"Get that bill heard or I will make sure you regret not doing it," Gerhart wrote in the email. "I will make you the laughing stock of the Senate if I don't hear that this bill will be heard and passed. We will dig into your past, yoru [sic] family, your associates and once we start on you there will be no end to it. This is a promise."
Gerhart did not respond to a Newsok.com request for comment.
The tea party leader's email and subsequent accusations about Branan's sex life ended up killing the Agenda 21 bill in Oklahoma. State Sen. Patrick Anderson (R-Enid) pulled the legislation last week "out of respect," he said, for Branan and his family. The bill had sought to ban local governments from implementing parts of Agenda 21, which was adopted by the U.N. in 1992 but has not been ratified by the U.S. Senate and is not law in the United States.
This is not the first time Gerhart has come to blows with other conservatives. He formed the Sooner Tea Party in 2009 after a falling-out with the Oklahoma City Tea Party. In 2010, the Gerhart-led Oklahoma Constitutional Alliance proposed a state militia to defend Oklahoma from the federal government, which led the Koch brothers' group Americans for Prosperity to distance itself from Gerhart.
The Oklahoma incident is also the latest in a series of bizarre events involving Agenda 21. Opposition to the U.N. plan has been a rallying point for conservative state lawmakers in many states -- led by the John Birch Society -- who have said that the plan could destroy private property rights and force people to live in walkable communities. Last October, Republican state senators in Georgia heard from a birther activist, who had already been expelled by the tea party, that President Barack Obama and the U.N. are using "mind-control" to implement Agenda 21. Earlier this week, the Republican-controlled Missouri House of Representatives passed an Agenda 21 ban following a debate that centered on whether the state should take steps to block an alien invasion, along with accusations that the U.N. is bribing local officials with free lawnmowers.

Transportation plays a vital role in the modern society, enabling the movement of goods and people across vast distances efficiently. Whether it's commuting to work, traveling by car, riding a train, or flying to distant destinations, ergonomics plays a necessary role in ensuring the safety and comfort of passengers and operators. Transport ergonomics focuses on designing transportation systems, vehicles, and interfaces that optimize human performance, minimize stress and discomfort, and ultimately enhance overall transportation experiences. This study will explore the significance of transport ergonomics, its key principles, applications, and its impact on the transportation industry.
Key principles of transport ergonomics
Human-centered design: At the core of transport ergonomics is a human-centered approach. Designers and engineers take into account the physical, cognitive, and emotional capabilities and limitations of passengers and operators to create transportation systems that are intuitive, comfortable, and safe to use.
Anthropometry: Understanding the diverse dimensions and physical characteristics of the human body is essential for designing vehicles and transportation interfaces that accommodate a wide range of individuals. Proper seat and control design, for example, can significantly impact passenger comfort and safety.
User interface design: The design of control panels, displays, and interfaces in vehicles and transportation hubs must be intuitive and user-friendly. Clear and concise information presentation can help reduce cognitive workload and minimize distractions for drivers and passengers.
Work environment: For operators of transportation vehicles, such as pilots, train drivers, and bus drivers, the work environment must be carefully designed to reduce fatigue, optimize performance, and minimize the risk of errors.
Applications of transport ergonomics
Automotive Industry: Transport ergonomics is extensively applied in the design of cars, trucks, and other vehicles. Car manufacturers use ergonomic principles to design comfortable seats, intuitive control layouts, and safety features that reduce driver fatigue and enhance overall driving experiences.
Aviation: Ergonomics is necessary in aviation to ensure pilot comfort and safety. Cockpit design, controls placement, and instrumentation are optimized to minimize the cognitive workload on pilots during flight operations.
Rail transport: Ergonomics plays a role in the design of train cabins and controls for drivers and conductors. Comfortable seating, appropriate layout, and accessible controls enhance the work environment and passenger experiences.
Public transportation: Public transportation systems, such as buses and subway trains, utilize ergonomic principles to design seating, handrails, and boarding areas that accommodate passengers of different sizes and physical abilities.
Maritime industry: In ship design, ergonomics is essential to ensure the comfort and safety of crew members during long voyages. The layout of ship controls, workspaces, and living quarters is optimized to prevent fatigue and improve operational efficiency.
Impact on transportation industry
Safety: Transport ergonomics directly impacts safety in transportation. By designing vehicles and transportation systems with human factors in mind, the risk of accidents and errors can be minimized, promoting safer journeys for all.
Passenger comfort: Ergonomically designed transportation vehicles and spaces enhance passenger comfort during travel. Comfortable seating, adequate legroom, and well-designed cabin layouts contribute to a more pleasant travel experience.
Operator performance: For operators and drivers, ergonomics can improve performance by reducing physical strain and cognitive workload. This, in turn, enhances alertness and decision-making abilities, benefiting both operators and passengers.
Efficiency and productivity: Ergonomics can increase the efficiency and productivity of transportation operations. In the case of freight transport, ergonomically designed loading and unloading processes can save time and reduce the risk of injuries to workers.
Challenges transport ergonomics
While transport ergonomics has made significant advancements, several challenges remain:
Increasing automation: With the rise of autonomous vehicles and advanced automation in transportation, ergonomics must adapt to address the new challenges and opportunities associated with humanmachine interactions.
Diverse populations: Designing for a diverse range of passengers with varying physical abilities and preferences poses a challenge in creating universally ergonomic transportation solutions.
Data privacy and security: As transportation systems become more interconnected and data-driven, protecting passenger privacy and ensuring the security of sensitive information is paramount.
Transport ergonomics plays an important role in enhancing safety, comfort, and efficiency in transportation. By applying ergonomic principles to the design of vehicles, interfaces, and work environments, one can create transportation systems that prioritize the well-being and experiences of both passengers and operators. As technology advances and the understanding of human factors improves, transport ergonomics will continue to shape the future of transportation, making journeys safer, more comfortable, and enjoyable for all.

EasyJet says hackers accessed 2,208 payment cards in a “sophisticated attack.”
The United Kingdom-based low-cost airline EasyJet has acknowledged that it was hacked in “an attack from a highly sophisticated source” affecting over 9 million customers.
According to the “Notice of cyber security incident” issued by EasyJet, it was revealed that the hackers managed to access 2,208 payment cards along with travel details and email addresses of impacted customers.
“Our forensic investigation found that, for a very small subset of customers (2,208), credit card details were accessed,” EasyJet said in the notice “Action has already been taken to contact all of these customers and they have been offered support.”
Currently, investigations are in progress but the airline maintains there is no evidence that “any personal information of any nature has been misused.”
If you are among impacted customers EasyJet will contact you. However, this is an ideal situation for hackers who might use the opportunity to conduct phishing scams using the stolen email address and pretend to be representatives from the airline.
Therefore, both EasyJet or EasyJet Holidays customers should watch out for malicious emails, verify that the email has come from official sources, do not click on any link given in the email, and refrain from putting your personal data in response to the email. Such emails can ask for full name, payment card details, PIN code, passwords, physical address, phone numbers, driver license, passport, or national insurance numbers.
As for the breach, in a statement, EasyJet’s Chief Executive Officer Johan Lundgren said that,
“Since we became aware of the incident, it has become clear that owing to COVID-19 there is heightened concern about personal data being used for online scams. “Every business must continue to stay agile to stay ahead of the threat. We will continue to invest in protecting our customers, our systems, and our data. “We would like to apologize to those customers who have been affected by this incident.”
At the time of publishing this article; the origin or who was being the attack were unknown since the airline has shared limited information. Nevertheless, EasyJet is the second airline to be listed among victims of a data breach in recent years. In September 2018, British Airways suffered a cyber attack in which private and financial data of 380,000 customers were stolen.
This is a developing story, stay tuned.

Life with a supersized family
The average US family has 1.87 children, but families with eight or more kids haven't disappeared.
The first thing you see when you go to the home of Jim and Laura Winters of Orono, Maine, is kids - lots of them. They peek over banisters, waddle around in diapers, appear to sprout from behind counters - and to grow out of couches.Skip to next paragraph
Subscribe Today to the Monitor
Preschooler Zimra, who always seems to be hungry, is slurping lemon yogurt. Mr. Winters is fixing a toilet that is leaching water onto the downstairs walls. Mrs. Winters is nursing the baby; Nadia is petting Wild and Woolly, her new guinea pigs; and Andre, who's 11, is playing the trumpet so well it would make Louis Armstrong swing.
When there are nine children in a household - ages 4 months to 14 years - mornings are hectic. And the rest of the day may not be much calmer.
"Every day we vacuum..., every day the two kitchen floors get washed, every day the bathrooms get cleaned, every day we do three loads of laundry, every day we bake bread, every day we make soup," says Mrs. Winters, who doesn't appear fazed by such a schedule. "If everybody can get up and do it by 8 o'clock in the morning, then it's good."
Welcome to life in a large family. In addition to nine kids, the Winterses have four dogs, a talking parrot, and a smattering of other animals. To top it off, they run a day-care center for 14 children in a building next to their house, and have three other children living with them part time. They also home-school their kids.
Once, large families were the norm. Now they're an anomaly. As recently as 1967, according to a Gallup poll, 31 percent of people said that four children was the ideal number for a family. Compare that to only 9 percent who say the same in 2001.
According to Census 2000, out of the 76 million family groups in America, only 6 percent (2.79 million) had four or more children, down from 17 percent in 1970. Families with more than six children have so diminished that the census doesn't bother to track them anymore.
Factors that contributed to the demise of the large family have been well documented. The biggest was a move away from an agrarian economy. In 1800, the average number of children in a family was seven. By 1900, that had dropped to 3.5.
Among other influences were the family-planning movement and the availability of reliable birth control, as well as women moving into the workplace in great numbers.
Since fewer children per family has become traditional, large families say they often experience subtle stigmatization.
"There's that perception that people bring more children into their lives than they can deal with or bring proper attention to," says Nick Stinnett, a professor of human development and family studies at the University of Alabama.
Some people, he says, think, "Maybe you would have less financial problems if you would not have had so many children."
Mrs. Winters has two answers to these doubters. Her short, snappy retort is: "Jim's sister doesn't have children, and my aunt doesn't, so we're making up for them."
But, more seriously, she adds, "We can afford it. And we're raising responsible kids, kids who will not be a drain on society or go on welfare. My kids have high goals. They will be well-received in any community."
All large families face forced smiles and sideways whispers from a public that, they feel, doesn't understand their situation.
Paula Dunham and her husband, who live in Sartell, Minn., have nine children (eight biological and one adopted) and are adopting two more.

MINNEAPOLIS (KMSP) - The search for a new Minneapolis Public Schools superintendent has been anything but smooth sailing. With interim superintendent Michael Goar no longer a candidate, the board will now look elsewhere, but that doesn't mean they are starting from scratch.
Goar, withdrew his bid for the permanent job, saying that he has become a distraction in the tumultuous process. His decision to drop out of the running for superintendent comes two weeks after the school board rejected candidate Sergio Paez amid criticisms he didn't adequately handle abuse allegations at his last district.
Goar will continue to serve as interim superintendent until a permanent replacement is selected. In the meantime, the board is expected to provide more details about the search for a new superintendent at a meeting scheduled for Tuesday night.
The board chair says the search should be more efficient going forward. She also says she's exploring the option of putting previous candidates back into the mix.

Under the new Affirmation of Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Gender Expression Act, anyone found guilty of trying to “change, repress or eliminate a person’s sexual orientation, gender identity and/or gender expression” faces fines or a jail sentence.And only five countries in the world – Bolivia, Ecuador, Fiji, Malta and the UK – have constitutions that explicitly guarantee equality for citizens on the basis of sexual orientation as well as gender identity, according to a recent UCLA study.The latest Equaldex research shows that consensual sexual activity between individuals of the same sex is legal across the northern hemisphere.But across swathes of Asia, Africa and the Middle East it remains illegal.For example, I plot 20 lines for the groups of "class2", but rather than having all of them in 20 different colors, I would like them to use the same colour, if they belong to the same type of class ("class_type", e.g.
Some respondents were missing during one or more occasions. Variables like gender, class and ID don't change, motivation does.
In those countries where same-sex adoption is legal, many stipulate that couples must be married, or can only do it if they are single. In Kazakhstan same-sex couples can adopt a child legally, but can’t get married.
Phone sex is a great way to spice up your sex life, whether you're doing it because your partner is far away, because you're not ready to have other kinds of sex together yet, because you just want to try something new, or any other reason!
"It's hard for some people to feel warm and sexy when they are afraid of losing their home-or they have already lost their job!
‘Age of consent’ is another way of saying the legal age to have sex.

The popular festival returns to Pattaya for a second year
THOUSANDS OF music fans turned out to Silverlake Vineyard in Pattaya last Saturday to rock to the sounds of more than 20 bands, both professional and amateur.
This second edition of Rock on the Lake was better organised than last year’s with the concert venue nearer the main road and the two stages easily accessible on foot, unlike the 2014 edition which saw fans having to walk up and down hills to sample the sounds. The time too, the main stage was devoted to the professional bands while its smaller cousin featured amateur and school bands from Rockademy, along with the Rockademy All Stars. The only downside of this arrangement was that the audience around the small stage was limited mainly to family members and friends of Electro Active, Fight Together, Manee, The Ambulance, Methane, Apollo, White Jack, Alphabeat and Let Me Go Home. They were all were taking part in the contest, “Rockademy on the Lake: Battle of the Bands”.
Some showed considerably more talent than others, with Electro Active among the most interesting in terms of performance and songs, which included the newly penned “Kamlang Khon Ha”. Sadly, though, the powerful music from the main stage affected the Lake Stage, a fact the organisers should take into account if planning a similar layout next year.
Alternative band AB Normal was the first to perform on Silver Stage with a set of hits that included “Thang Thi Phid Kor Yang Rak”, its first single after a six-year hiatus. After a brief expression of thanks to fans for their support, singer Sirisilp “Kwang” Chotvijit led the band into “Phood Mai Khoi Keng”, a smash hit from its 2002 debut album “Pakati”, then jammed with SDF’s singer Nitinan “Champ” Jan-deja.
Maew Chirasak rocked the audience with his opener, “Degree of Freedom”, a nu-metal number and the title track of an EP that hails his entry to the metal world, then swiftly segued into his old hits, including an interesting post-hardcore arrangement of “Thang Khrai Thang Man”. He also played “Chan Mai Dai Kerd Ma Puea Thuk Luem”, the first single from the EP and, just as his did last year, introduced two young talents. guitarist Mix from “Thailand’s Got Talent” and Max on drums for a rousing rendition of two Western covers.
Getsunova performed a set that included “Kham Tham Sueng Rai Khon Tob” and “Klai Khae Nai Khue Klai”, while Moderndog, widely considered the pioneer of alternative rock, played such danceable hits as “Tim”, “Busaba” and “Ta Sawang”. Their vocalist Tanachai “Pod” Ujjin asked the audience to give a round of applause to a Japanese female fan, a regular at Moderndog’s concerts.
Festival headliners Asanee-Wasan Chotikul were next out on Silver Stage along with the same musician line-up as on their world tour. The audience was delighted to sing along to such legendary love songs as “Huajai Sa-orn”, “Sith Khong Ther”, “Rak Ther Samer”, and “Khon Sudthai” and to dance to fast-paced tracks “Wua Luem Tua”, “Luk Phuchai”, and “Sai Lor Fah”. Asanee once again respected tradition by throwing guitar picks into the crowd.
Blackhead, Lomosonic and Cocktail closed out the action on the Silver Stage but this reviewer had already decided to call it a night.


This is a simple test that you can use to check the FinePointe Calibrator for accuracy. Injecting a known volume of air is a common standard for calibrating volume and flow measurements in respiratory chambers. The FinePointe hardware uses a unique Calibrator that uses water displacement as a means of injecting a known and consistent volume into the respiratory chambers every time.
NOTE: If your calibrator has a serial number on the bottom of it, you do not need to perform this test.
The FinePointe Calibrator is an acrylic cylinder filled with water to a certain line that should guarantee a consistent 7.4 +/- 0.2 milliliter air injection every time. This injection is part of the automated calibration function that is an integral part of all FinePointe style respiratory hardware systems (WBP, NAM, RC, and Inhalation Tower). Small inaccuracies were possible with the acrylic inner-cylinder calibrator where the volume was higher than specification, and this test will pinpoint these quickly and easily.
- Pull back on a 10cc syringe until the base of the plunger is at the 7.6 mL mark (image 1)
- Use a new syringe with a verified volume to ensure that the injection is accurate.
- Connect the syringe set to 7.6ml to the calibrator via the connected tube (image 2)
- Do not pull back on the syringe while it is connected to the Calibrator.
- Inject the 7.6 mL of air into the calibrator by pushing the plunger all the way down.
- Watch the air being injected through the inner cylinder of the calibrator, displacing the water within.
- Look at the bottom of the inner cylinder to see the water level.
- If the water level is at the very bottom of the inner cylinder, or if there is a small bubble protruding from the bottom of the cylinder, the calibrator is still within specification (image 3).
- If the water level is above the bottom of the inner cylinder, the displacement volume is more than 7.6mL of air and is out of specification (image 4).
(See below: the level of the water in the inner column—the green line—should be at the very bottom of the inner cylinder of the calibrator—the red circle)
If you calibrator meets the criteria outlined above we recommend indicating it by marking on the calibrator “7.6 PASS” with an indelible marker.
If you find that your calibrator does not meet the criteria outlined above, contact Client Service for a replacement at no charge.
