Got a leak? Think twice before calling the police, Whitehall told
Whitehall mandarins have been warned not to call in the police just because they are embarrassed by leaked information.
Sir Gus O’Donnell, the head of the Civil Service, has written to all permanent secretaries setting out new rules after the Damian Green affair.
Mr Green, a Tory frontbencher, was arrested and his home and Commons offices were raided by counter-terrorism police in an investigation into a series of leaks. After months of inquiry neither Mr Green nor Christopher Galley, the junior Home Office civil servant who passed information to the Conservatives, were charged.
Claims by the Home Office that it had called in the police because of concerns that national security had been compromised were dismissed by two subsequent Commons inquiries into the affair.

It is insulting to most US citizens when politicians get behind the podium and exclaim to be representing us, when in fact, they are only representing the few idealism’s of a small portion of the American people as a whole and are really dictating their own political agendas. Case and point, is the Joe Kennedy III , a representative from the 4th District of Massachusetts rebuttal to president Trump’s SOTU. Here, he is referring to the president’s tough immigration policies, he makes the old worn out cliché statement that “this isn’t who we are” as if he is speaking for every American.
In the not too distant past, we have heard the same this isn’t who we are statement made by both Barack H Obama and House Speaker Paul Ryan on several occasions, mainly regarding torture of international terrorists and their desire to bring over a million Syrian Muslim refugees to the US.
What we really have here is politicians, dictating their political agenda and trying to make everyone believe most are on board with it. In the case of illegal immigration and the Muslim refugees, most US citizens, except the west coast, New York, and New Jersey, it is very much who they are to want to keep them out of their country.
It is very much who we are to want the US to be an independent nation and not some NWO neo-Nazi third world Banana Republic without borders who is governed by the UN.
In the case of the Howdy Doody, or Chucky lookalike who gave the Democrat rebuttal to president Trump’s SOTU address, what they were hoping for was that the name Kennedy would resonate with the American people and give them a sense that their agenda would be what JFK would also have wanted. With Joe Kennedy III, what they got was the same old worn out opposition to anything president Trump said, as well as their push to keep their NWO agenda alive. We also heard from someone who is so obscure, hardly anyone outside of Massachusetts knew who he was. Instead of bringing back memories of JFK, Joe Kennedy brought comical thoughts of Howdy Doody and Chucky.
Thus, after a SOTU speech from a president, the majority of Americans want him in office, and him saying what we want to hear, for the most part, then we got our comical relief from the Democrats immediately after it.

Using telemedicine to diagnose and treat non-acute headache is as safe and effective as a traditional consultation, according to a non-inferiority study conducted in Norway.
In a randomized trial, there were no differences in Headache Impact Test-6 (HIT-6) scores or Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) scores at 3 or 12 months whether patients saw a neurologist in person or via video conference, reported Kai Müller, MD, of the Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø, and colleagues.
- Note that this randomized trial from Norway suggested that telemedicine visits for non-acute headaches may be as effective as in-person neurology visits in terms of pain scores at 3 and 12 months.
- Be aware that telemedicine may not be as feasible in locations where secondary causes of headache are much more prevalent.
Nor were there any differences in the primary safety endpoint of secondary headache at one year, they wrote online in Neurology.
"Northern Norway covers a huge area and it is broken up by mountains, valleys and fjords into many sparsely populated places, so traveling to see a doctor can be cumbersome and expensive for many people," Müller said in a statement. "But telemedicine may be valuable for people all over the world who are suffering with headaches and want to see a specialist without any extra hassle or inconvenience."
The team conducted the study at the University Hospital of Northern Norway, which serves about 270,000 people, some of whom must travel by boat or plane from remote islands scattered throughout the arctic region. The 402 patients with non-acute headache enrolled in the study were referred from primary care to the hospital's neurology department between 2012 and 2015, and they were randomized to either a telemedicine or traditional consultation.
The researchers excluded patients who had seen a neurologist for headache management within the last two years. They also excluded patients with acute headaches (occurring less than four weeks before the referral), as well as those with radiologic or clinical abnormalities.
Müller and colleagues had assessed the same group of patients in an earlier study about the cost-effectiveness and acceptability of telemedicine. For the new study, they followed up with the same group at three and 12 months by mail or an online survey service.
Comparing the three periods, they did not find any significant differences between telemedicine and traditional consultations in HIT-6 (P=0.84) or VAS (P=0.64). Because they only found one secondary headache in each group, they estimated that the number needed to miss one secondary headache with the use of telemedicine was 20,200.
The authors noted that this risk estimate was reduced by excluding secondary headaches from the referrals as performed in clinical practice. Also, the relatively young age-range of the participants (the upper limit was 65) could have reduced the number of abnormalities found by neuroimaging. They also noted how telemedicine might be less safe in other geographic areas like South Nigeria, where CT scans revealed pathologic findings in as high as 50 percent of patients with nonacute headaches. Another limitation included the inherent inability to blind patients in a telemedicine trial.
Still, they concluded that telemedicine consultation for non-acute headache is as efficient and safe as a traditional consultation -- but some neurologists cautioned that details can be lost with telemedicine.
Neurologist David Rabinovici, MD, of New York Neurology Associates, noted that if neuroimaging is used in combination with telemetric consultations for headaches, "there are going to be very few cases you're going to miss. But you are going to miss some by not having a full consult."
He said subtle secondary cues that have contributed to his diagnoses required clear and unobstructed observation, which might be lost in a telemedicine consult. Asking a patient to remove chewing gum might reveal slight imperfections in speech; a peculiar odor could indicate an endocrine problem, he said.
Also, initial consultations often begin before the patient sits down in the examining room, and end after they leave for Rabinovici.
"I may even observe the patient a few minutes prior to him coming in without him or her knowing," said Rabinovici. "The way the patient moves, walks into the room, guards himself from the light, holds his head or neck, or sits in the room, can tell you a number of things about the severity of the headache. But tests like VAS are highly subjective."
David Charles, MD, chief medical officer of the Vanderbilt Neuroscience Institute and director of telemedicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, emphasized that doctors also need to take the patient's experience into account in deciding when to use telemedicine.
"For some medical conditions, the patient may actually prefer the televisit over the in-person visit," said Charles. "If it's the patient's preference, then the physician needs to know if it's medically appropriate to care for those problems via telemedicine. Here we have evidence that for this particular problem, telemedicine is perfectly fine to use."
The study was supported by the Northern Norway Regional Health Authority.
The authors disclosed no financial relationships with industry.

Network operations tools can be more efficient
Assurance visualization can prepare network operations tools to meet the demands of increasingly complex networks. And the limitations of today’s tools are indeed a cause for concern.
- Will they be efficient enough to meet new network operations requirements?
- Will they scale to meet the challenges of tomorrow’s network operations environment?
As networks evolve to next-generation IP/optical technologies, cloud networking, software defined networking (SDN), and network functions virtualization (NFV), network operations tools need to evolve, too.
THE NETWORK OPERATIONS TOOLS EVOLUTION
Innovation is happening and better technologies are emerging. Among them, network assurance visualization is useful for enhancing network monitoring, troubleshooting, and analytics.
NFV and SDN require network management systems (NMS) to meet the new performance monitoring and assurance visualization challenges created by these rapidly changing virtualized network environments. And big data analytics and new web software frameworks have unlocked the potential for new assurance visualization approaches that will radically change network operations tools.
The end result will be a dramatically enhanced, more visually insightful approach for assuring networks and services that enable operators to utilize a wealth of real-time and historical data in a meaningful and effective way.
This blog is the first in a series that discusses network assurance visualization in the context of gaining efficiency in addressing various network operations challenges.
TRADITIONAL FAULT MANAGEMENT CAN IMPEDE EFFICIENCY
Even the most seasoned network operators find it challenging to diagnose the problems in a network with high fault volumes. To manually interpret alarms within an alarm list and isolate problems efficiently, you need to identify the relatively smaller number of root causes quickly and focus on investigating the highest priority problems first.
Some of the better fault management and network operations tools in the industry simplify and automate this process through alarm de-duplication, suppression, and correlation. This de-clutters the alarm list by lowering the number of alarms that network and service operators have to filter and sort through.
“Service aware” network operations tools go further by performing alarm correlation between services and underlying infrastructure, out-of-the-box. There’s no need to develop custom configurations or scripts to map out the many relationships needed to link the volumes of individual services to all the underlying network infrastructure layers and network resources. Service aware network operations tools are also able to correlate alarms network-wide across end-to-end services composed of multiple service segments – even if they use different service types or span different network technology domains.
Despite some of the latest network operations software technology advancements, operators can still find it difficult to know where to start when there are many active faults -- especially when using the more traditional fault management approach that involves navigating alarm lists. It is also not uncommon for operators to sometimes lose their bearings as they open many windows when troubleshooting faults across multiple different views and forms.
It is often difficult and time-consuming to uncover and prioritize all the root problems from symptomatic alarms. This can mean that operators only address the root cause of problems on a best-effort basis. Alarms unrelated to the particular fault being investigated may tend to move operators in the wrong direction when troubleshooting a specific problem – and this increases the mean time to resolution (MTTR).
SERVICE AWARE FAULT MANAGEMENT WITH ASSURANCE VISUALIZATION
Many traditional network operations challenges can be alleviated by adding assurance visualization to fault management workflows within a service aware NMS.
For the most effective assurance visualization, it is fundamental to use service aware network operations tools that possess a high performing, scalable framework for alarm and event correlation. This will insure a highly optimized environment for efficient traversal of relationships across the managed network and services model in-memory. And that’s exactly the prerequisite to be able to pinpoint root causes with speed and at scale, while also enabling their isolation from downstream network infrastructure impacts.
With this advanced service aware fault management, issues are automatically isolated down to the root cause to enable the delivery of assurance visualization. Assurance visualization enables network operations to detect emerging problems faster and accelerate the troubleshooting process to reduce MTTR. It achieves this by giving network operators intuitive, holistic views so they can:
- Quickly understand which problems merit immediate investigation, and where to start
- Clearly see and easily diagnose where the root cause of a problem resides – as compared to the ripple of symptomatic alarms that stem from the root cause
- Distinguish unique problems and their magnitude of impact on the network and services, in order to hone in on the highest priority issues first

Lewisham Council have granted outline planning permission for developer Renewal’s proposed £850m housing and retail development on the “Surrey Canal Triangle” site. A package of transport improvements are mandated as part of the work – including contributory funding for Surrey Canal Road Station.
The proposed Surrey Canal Road station on the East London Line Extension Phase 2 has been in limbo since the DfT withdrew funding support. Passive provision (including the construction of a station box) is being completed as part of the ELLX2 project, but without additional funding this was unlikely to see conversion to a full station for some time.
Under the outline planning permission granted to Renewal, this will now need to be fully commissioned as a station. It is understood that Lewisham will provide the £3m contribution they had already budgeted for within their Local Implementation Plan for the period, and the suggestion appears to be that Renewal have agreed to contribute the remaining cost. TfL would be responsible for the actual station build, with this to be completed within a maximum of two years of ground being broken by Renewal on their development.
The cost of the station build is estimated at £10m (although that figure includes a 40% contingency) and the end result will be a relatively basic, unmanned station with step-free access via a mobility lift, and station canopies. Forecasts are that this station will see about 348 passengers per peak, meaning the ELL would remain within its current line loading threshold. There’s currently no indication as to whether the cost of the station has increased due to the fact that it will now not be completed as part of ELLX2 itself, although that seems likely. The efforts that TfL put into constructing an impressive amount of passive provision on the site will, however, probably have helped minimise this somewhat.
In addition to the station itself, the outline permission indicates that a number of other transport improvements have been agreed in principle. The purchase of land allowing, Renewal will work with TfL to construct a transport interchange next to SCR station, which will likely include three bus stands and a bus bay. The developers will also subsidise two new bus services to the area. Extending the 415 from Elephant and Castle appears to be the preferred option at the moment (giving a direct link to Central London) along with the creation of a new route that would run to Lewisham Town Centre.
Finally, a new eastern link road between Rollins Street and Surrey Canal Road is proposed (assuming the land can be negotiated with TfL) and additional cycle and foot paths will be provided – including one to link through to South Bermondsey station to the north.
Overall, it’s a comprehensive package of improvements. Many felt that Surrey Canal Road was a station that should always have been left to a future site developer to pursue, although most agreed that the DfT’s handling of the whole funding situation was somewhat farcical. Ultimately, the important thing is that we may finally be on the right path for a positive end to the saga of Surrey Canal Road.

This week I had the pleasure to talk to a customer about NUMA use-cases and a very interesting config came up. They have a VM with a particular memory configuration that exceeds the ESXi host NUMA node memory configuration. This scenario is covered in the vSphere 6.5 Host Resources Deep Dive, excerpt below.
The scenario described happens in multi-socket systems that are used to host monster-VMs. Extreme memory footprint VMs are getting more common by the day. The system is equipped with two CPU packages. Each CPU package contains twelve cores. The system has a memory configuration of 128 GB in total. The NUMA nodes are symmetrically configured and contain 64 GB of memory each.
However, if the VM requires 96 GB of memory, a maximum of 64 GB can be obtained from a single NUMA node. This means that 32 GB of memory could become remote if the vCPUs of that VM can fit inside one NUMA node. In this case, the VM is configured with 8 vCPUs.
The VM fits from a vCPU perspective inside one NUMA node, and therefore the NUMA scheduler configures for this VM a single virtual proximity domain (VPD) and a single a load-balancing group which is internally referred to as a physical proximity domain (PPD).
Running a SQL DB on this machine resulted in the following local and remote memory consumption. The VM consumes nearly 64 GB on its local NUMA node (clientID shows the location of the vCPUs) while it consumes 31 GB of remote memory.
In this scenario, it could be beneficial to the performance of the VM to rely on the NUMA optimizations that exist in the guest OS and application. The VM advanced setting numa.consolidate = FALSE instructs the NUMA scheduler to distribute the VM configuration across as many NUMA nodes as possible.
Please note that a single VPD (VPD0) is created and as a result, the guest OS and the application only detect a single NUMA node. Local and remote memory optimizations are (only) applied by the NUMA scheduler in the hypervisor.
Whether or not the application can benefit from this configuration depends on its design. If it’s a multi-threaded application, the NUMA scheduler can allocate memory closes to the CPU operation. However, if the VM is running a single-threaded application, you still might end up with a lot of remote memory access, as the physical NUMA node hosting the vCPU is unable to provide the memory demand by itself.
Test the behavior of your application before making the change to create a baseline. As always, use advanced settings only if necessary!

It’s a fantasy to believe that Iran will blast the nuclear bomb in every other country. The fascist nations are deliberately trying to make us believe that every other nations, except America is developing the nuclear technology to create nuclear bombs. The US is trying to showcase that they are the only nation which can maintain a nuclear energy for domestic purposes.
If America is having so much concerned on the nuclear bombs, why they are piling nuclear arsenal. And they just telling us to forget the fact that the US is the only country to have used the nuclear weapons in warfare . Before asking Iran to explain their nuclear structures, America & Israel should be transparent on their nuclear structures.
Already lakhs of innocent people have been died in Iraq for US’s pipe dream, now they are trying to suck the Iranian blood. It is pathetic that many nations still heed to the draconian America’s word.

The 1st Quarter MIMAROPA Regional Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (RTF-ELCAC) meeting was held on January 8 virtually through Zoom.
MIMAROPA Cabinet Officer for Regional Development and Security or CORDS and Department of Energy (DOE) Secretary Alfonso G. Cusi presided over the meeting attended by DOE Undersecretary Alexander S. Lopez, MIMAROPA Regional Development Council (RDC) Chairperson and Romblon Governor Jose R. Riano, Marinduque Governor Presbitero J. Velasco, Jr., leads and representatives of the RTF-ELCAC clusters, directors and representatives of regional line agencies (RLAs), local government units (LGUs), and private sector representatives.
In his message, Secretary Cusi emphasized how the country was not only battered with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but also with earthquakes, typhoons, and communist terrorist atrocities that claimed lives, halted services, and damaged properties. He also acknowledged the members’ cheerful disposition, innate coping abilities, resilience, commitment, and dedication towards achieving the RTF-ELCAC objectives.
Meanwhile, LtCol. Jonathan Manio of the 2nd Infantry Division presented a consolidated report of the Peace, Law Enforcement, and Development Support (PLEDS) Cluster regarding the security situation in MIMAROPA and updates on peace, order, and drug situation.
Undersecretary Alexander S. Lopez presented a year-end assessment to understand the region’s standing in terms of ending local communist armed conflict, establish feedback mechanisms, and anticipate possible changes in the administration after 2022.
He also emphasized that the following strategies can be translated into concrete results in combatting insurgencies: (a) end armed struggle and security threats caused by the Communist Terrorist Group (CTG); (b) stop recruitment of youth and vulnerable sectors; (c) reduce all channels of funding support; and (d) support national efforts.
Some of the concerns raised during the open forum included recruitment and kidnapping of the youth, monitoring of communities where forceful recruitment is being done, and implementation of the National Identification System.
Meanwhile, the following were recommended: (a) encourage reporting of missing persons including children; (b) stimulate community involvement to gather immediate information; (c) provide rewards and incentives to key informants; and (d) consider issuance of local means of identification.
In closing, Secretary Cusi encouraged all RTF-ELCAC members to make necessary adjustments and act with a sense of urgency to combat CTGs. He also emphasized the need for coordination between and among clusters and agencies, LGUs to take a strong stance on their declaration of CTGs as persona non grata, and pursuance of justice and filing of cases against perpetrators. He added that there is no better way to monitor progress and solve problems than to agree to pursue key performance indicators.


Travis Head has continued the rich vein of form as he smacked 101 runs against Pakistan in the 1st ODI. The 28-year old left-handed batter opened the innings for Australia who opted to bat first. Along with captain Aaron Finch, Head stitched a partnership of 110 runs off just 88 balls to get Australia off to a rollicking start.
Head finished with 101 runs in 72 balls with 12 fours and 3 sixes to put Pakistan bowlers to the sword. In the partnership worth 110 runs, Head added 77 runs in 52 balls while Finch added just 23 runs in 36 balls, playing the role of the anchor.
A fabulous knock from Travis that turned Heads!#PAKvAUS | #PAKvsAUS pic.twitter.com/iC0VfRcF3V

Two lovers, Dodzi Addo Kumani, 39 years, and Doris Anoma, 28 years, have been jailed 12 months and One hundred penalty units each, by the Ashaiman circuit court for selling marijuana toffees.
Prosecuting, Chief Inspector Nunoo-Mensah told the court that , Mrs Esther Addo, a 48 year old resident of Ashaiman Official Town, on the June 5, 2018 made an official complaint to the Police that she had been assaulted by the couple.
The prosecutor explained that, the Police further gathered intelligence on the couple and it came to the fore that the love birds were trading in illicit drugs in the area.
He added that the Police conducted a search in the room of the accused persons and found 36 pieces of toffee suspected to be made from Indian-hemp and a bag containing dry leaves believed to be marijuana.
The couple pleaded guilty and prayed the court to temper justice with mercy.
Mr. Gabriel Mate-Teye, presiding judge, Ashaiman circuit court, said possession of illicit drugs was an offence contrary to section 6(1) of PNDC law 236.
He therefore sentenced the accused persons to “serve as a deterrent to others’.

Noted Author to Speak on “the Soul” This Weekend
Baha`i Community of Molokai News Release
Cook Islander author and artist Johnny Frisbie will speak on “The Soul in Polynesian Tradition and the Baha`i Writings,” Saturday, Jan. 19 at 5 p.m. at Kalele Bookstore and again on Sunday, Jan. 20 at 3 p.m. at the Baha`i Center, mile 14 east.
Johnny was raised on Puka-Puka, a one-mile square atoll in the northern Cook Islands with a population of about 400 people. Her American father was a writer and Johnny inherited his love of words. When her mother died, they migrated to Rarotonga where she saw her first mountains, rivers, horses, cows and dogs. She lived all over the Pacific including Tahiti, Samoa, New Zealand and eventually Hawaii.
In New Zealand, she worked closely with the Maoris to establish language schools for preschoolers. She was a founding member of the Maori and South Pacific Arts Council appointed by the New Zealand government to re-energize Maori arts, crafts and music and was also the vice president of Pacifica, an organization dedicated to promote the development and advancement of Pacific Island women. She was one of four panelists on a daily TV show in New Zealand called, “Beauty and the Beast,” which dealt with women’s issues.
She’s published several novels, children’s stories distributed by the New Zealand Department of Education throughout the Pacific and various stories and articles in magazines like “The Atlantic Monthly” and collections such as “Nunua, Pacific Writing in English since 1980.”
After she moved to Hawaii, she danced at Don the Beachcombers in Waikiki with Alfred Apaka and later at the Queen Surf where she and her sister had a late night show called, “Puka-Puka Otea.”
A long-time member of the Baha`i Faith, Johnny noted the striking similarities in the Baha`i Writings regarding the soul and spirituality with the traditions in her own upbringing and other Polynesian cultures. Her talks on Saturday at Kalele Bookstore and Sunday at the Baha`i Center will explore this theme. The public is welcome. For more information call 558-8432.

A hold that was temporarily placed on former New Mexico Rep. Heather Wilson’s nomination to become Air Force secretary has been removed and her final confirmation vote is now slated for Monday.
After reporting the hold earlier this morning, I was told that the hold has been removed and the Senate will vote on Wilson Monday. A Senate official with knowledge of the matter confirmed that in an email moments ago.
Although some members of the Senate Armed Services Committee questioned Wilson about her post-congressional contract work with Sandia National Laboratories she is widely expected to win confirmation. If confirmed on Monday, Wilson would be the first secretary of a military service branch to start work under President Donald Trump.
A Democratic senator has put the brakes on former New Mexico Rep. Heather Wilson’s nomination to become U.S. Air Force secretary, according to a report in Defense News.
Sen. John McCain, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, told the military trade publication this week that legislators need to “work through” questions about Wilson’s nomination before she can receive a confirmation vote.
It’s not clear which senator placed the so-called “hold” on Wilson’s nomination. Individual senators can delay nominations by requesting a hold from their party’s leadership in the Senate. Holds on nominations are usually resolved but they require additional procedural steps – such as the filing of a cloture motion that requires 60 votes – to clear a path to confirmation.
McCain told the publication that the snag was related to an Air Force base in the state of the senator who placed the hold, and that the issue was close to being resolved.
“There was one senator who had questions about a facility in her state, and so we are trying to work through that,” McCain told Defense News.
“That senator is being reasonable,” he added.
During her March 30 confirmation hearing, Wilson came under questioning for work she did for Sandia National Laboratories after leaving Congress in 2009.
A 2013 Department of Energy inspector general’s report found that Sandia, then run by defense giant Lockheed Martin, had inappropriately paid Wilson about $226,000 in consulting fees beginning in January 2009, to lobby for Sandia to take on new assignments for the federal government. Sandia and Wilson have said no prohibited lobbying occurred.
However, Sandia reimbursed the government more than $226,000 for fees paid to the consulting company run by Wilson, who was not mentioned in the settlement agreement between the Justice Department and Sandia Corp. Lockheed Martin later agreed to pay $4.7 million to settle charges that it used government money illegally to lobby top federal officials for an extension of its Sandia contract.
Wilson, 56, has been serving as president of the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City since 2013. She represented New Mexico in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1998 to 2009, serving on the Armed Forces and Intelligence committees. She lost a bid for the U.S. Senate to Democrat Martin Heinrich in the 2012 general election.
If confirmed, she would be the first of Donald Trump’s nominees to lead a military service branch to actually start the job. At least two other service branch nominees have withdrawn and Trump’s second pick to lead the Army is currently mired in controversy over statements he made about LGBT issues, Islam and evolution.

Samsung Game Pad (EI-GP20) passes Bluetooth Certification
(IFA photo via Android Central)
Samsung Game Pad (EI-GP20) that was introduced at this year’s IFA in Berlin just passed Bluetooth Certification. We already saw the Game Pad device for Galaxy S 4, but this one is slightly redesigned, with differently labelled buttons, and a dedicated “Game” button linking into a special games portal on the device. Pushing this button pauses the current game and pops up a menu, allowing you to choose between game titles.
We should see the device soon on store shelves, but for now the price and release date is still unknown.

Conditional GANs are frequently used for manipulating the attributes of face images, such as expression, hairstyle, pose, or age.
Prototypical parts-based networks are becoming increasingly popular due to their faithful self-explanations.
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) play a fundamental role in many deep learning problems, in particular in cheminformatics.
The key components of this framework are the pruning and growing criteria, which are repeatedly applied during the training process to adjust the network's sparse connectivity.
The most common MIL model is when we consider a bag as positive if at least one of its instances has a positive label.
By learning to remain invariant to applied data augmentations, methods such as SimCLR and MoCo are able to reach quality on par with supervised approaches.
Consequently, we can only replace the 2D images (without additional training) to produce a NeRF representation of the new object.
Deep clustering has been dominated by flat models, which split a dataset into a predefined number of groups.
Ranked #1 on Image Clustering on MNIST
Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) are nowadays used to represent multimedia signals across various real-life applications, including image super-resolution, image compression, or 3D rendering.
Recent transformer language models achieve outstanding results in many natural language processing (NLP) tasks.
We introduce ProtoSeg, a novel model for interpretable semantic image segmentation, which constructs its predictions using similar patches from the training set.
Implicit neural representations (INRs) are a rapidly growing research field, which provides alternative ways to represent multimedia signals.
Unfortunately, previous modifications of MAML are limited due to the simplicity of Gaussian posteriors, MAML-like gradient-based weight updates, or by the same structure enforced for universal and adapted weights.
Partial label learning is a type of weakly supervised learning, where each training instance corresponds to a set of candidate labels, among which only one is true.
We attempt to address that challenge by proposing a novel approach to the problem: Local Intrinsic Dimension estimation using approximate Likelihood (LIDL).
The proposed classifier is confident only if a single class has a high probability and other probabilities are negligible.
Many crucial problems in deep learning and statistics are caused by a variational gap, i. e., a difference between evidence and evidence lower bound (ELBO).
We introduce a new training paradigm that enforces interval constraints on neural network parameter space to control forgetting.
Few-shot models aim at making predictions using a minimal number of labeled examples from a given task.
We introduce ProtoPool, an interpretable image classification model with a pool of prototypes shared by the classes.
Processing of missing data by modern neural networks, such as CNNs, remains a fundamental, yet unsolved challenge, which naturally arises in many practical applications, like image inpainting or autonomous vehicles and robots.
This makes the GP posterior locally non-Gaussian, therefore we name our method Non-Gaussian Gaussian Processes (NGGPs).
Self-supervised learning holds promise to revolutionize molecule property prediction - a central task to drug discovery and many more industries - by enabling data efficient learning from scarce experimental data.
We propose FlowSVDD -- a flow-based one-class classifier for anomaly/outliers detection that realizes a well-known SVDD principle using deep learning tools.
Recent years have seen a surge in research on deep interpretable neural networks with decision trees as one of the most commonly incorporated tools.
The adoption of Transformer-based models in natural language processing (NLP) has led to great success using a massive number of parameters.
The problem of reducing processing time of large deep learning models is a fundamental challenge in many real-world applications.
In this work, we reformulate the problem of point cloud completion into an object hallucination task.
Predicting future states or actions of a given system remains a fundamental, yet unsolved challenge of intelligence, especially in the scope of complex and non-deterministic scenarios, such as modeling behavior of humans.
In this paper, we introduce ProtoPShare, a self-explained method that incorporates the paradigm of prototypical parts to explain its predictions.
We propose OneFlow - a flow-based one-class classifier for anomaly (outlier) detection that finds a minimal volume bounding region.
We present a mechanism for detecting adversarial examples based on data representations taken from the hidden layers of the target network.
To that end, we devise a generative model that uses a hypernetwork to return the weights of a Continuous Normalizing Flows (CNF) target network.
There have been several attempts to create a model working with a bag of instances, however, they are assuming that there are no dependencies within the bag and the label is connected to at least one instance.
We develop a fast end-to-end method for training lightweight neural networks using multiple classifier heads.
We argue for the existence of the "break-even" point on this trajectory, beyond which the curvature of the loss surface and noise in the gradient are implicitly regularized by SGD.
Designing a single neural network architecture that performs competitively across a range of molecule property prediction tasks remains largely an open challenge, and its solution may unlock a widespread use of deep learning in the drug discovery industry.
In the paper we construct a fully convolutional GAN model: LocoGAN, which latent space is given by noise-like images of possibly different resolutions.
The main idea of our HyperCloud method is to build a hyper network that returns weights of a particular neural network (target network) trained to map points from a uniform unit ball distribution into a 3D shape.
Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) have recently become the primary choice for learning from graph-structured data, superseding hash fingerprints in representing chemical compounds.
We propose a semi-supervised generative model, SeGMA, which learns a joint probability distribution of data and their classes and which is implemented in a typical Wasserstein auto-encoder framework.
We present an efficient technique, which allows to train classification networks which are verifiably robust against norm-bounded adversarial attacks.
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) - one of the basic tools in data analysis - aims to find a coordinate system in which the components of the data are independent.
In the case of geodesics, we search for the curves with the shortest length, while in the case of generative models we typically apply linear interpolation in the latent space.
Motivated by the human way of memorizing images we introduce their functional representation, where an image is represented by a neural network.
In this paper, we propose a simple, fast and easy to implement algorithm LOSSGRAD (locally optimal step-size in gradient descent), which automatically modifies the step-size in gradient descent during neural networks training.
Global pooling, such as max- or sum-pooling, is one of the key ingredients in deep neural networks used for processing images, texts, graphs and other types of structured data.
We construct a general unified framework for learning representation of structured data, i. e. data which cannot be represented as the fixed-length vectors (e. g. sets, graphs, texts or images of varying sizes).
We propose that in ResNets this can be resolved based on our results, by ensuring the same level of dynamical isometry at initialization.
The crucial new ingredient is the introduction of a new (Cramer-Wold) metric in the space of densities, which replaces the Wasserstein metric used in SWAE.
For this purpose, we train context encoder for 64x64 pixels images in a standard way and use its resized output to fill in the missing input region of the 128x128 context encoder, both in training and evaluation phase.
In this paper we propose a mixture model, SparseMix, for clustering of sparse high dimensional binary data, which connects model-based with centroid-based clustering.
In order to graphically represent and interpret the results the notion of Voronoi diagram was generalized to non Euclidean spaces and applied for introduced clustering method.
Incomplete data are often represented as vectors with filled missing attributes joined with flag vectors indicating missing components.
The R Package CEC performs clustering based on the cross-entropy clustering (CEC) method, which was recently developed with the use of information theory.
Representation learning is currently a very hot topic in modern machine learning, mostly due to the great success of the deep learning methods.
The main contribution of this paper is proposing a model based on the information theoretic concepts which on the one hand shows new, entropic perspective on known linear classifiers and on the other leads to a construction of very robust method competetitive with the state of the art non-information theoretic ones (including Support Vector Machines and Extreme Learning Machines).
In the classical Gaussian SVM classification we use the feature space projection transforming points to normal distributions with fixed covariance matrices (identity in the standard RBF and the covariance of the whole dataset in Mahalanobis RBF).
Then we prove that our method is a multithreshold large margin classifier, which shows the analogy to the SVM, while in the same time works with much broader class of hypotheses.


Videogame streaming services have become the gaming industry's version of video streaming subscriptions. There are a lot of companies getting involved, and not everyone is having a good go of it. While Microsoft and Google's services have been met with mostly positive responses, other companies have not been quite as lucky. Every service has to go out of its way to separate itself from the pack. Microsoft has its Xbox game catalog and Xbox Game Pass to draw gamers in. Google has a strong ecosystem, and the ability to create bundles. Nvidia's GeForce Now service set itself apart by allowing you to play any PC game you already own through the service.
Like all of the other streaming services, GeForce Now has fought the ability to reach gamers where they want to play. One of the challenges, of course, has been Apple. The company has worked hard to ensure game streaming platforms have a hard time on their devices. Microsoft has fought the policies publicly, with slight success.
In an attempt to get around this, services, including GeForce Now, have resorted to building web versions of their interfaces. In November 2020, the service released a Safari-compatible version of their software, and this week, the service is officially available in Chrome as well. It can be used on Windows and Mac and allows for some app-style features. The most interesting is the ability to add a desktop shortcut for games from the app. The service is currently in beta but seems to be fully functional.
The service, which was in beta for a long time, finally released to the public in early 2020. But, the service hit speed bumps quickly, as publishers contested the service's tenant of streaming their games without their knowledge. Nvidia believed that by essentially providing a remote desktop interface that they would be able to do this without a contract, but after a few days publishers pulled access to their games. They have since managed to stabilize the catalog and win back the support of gamers.

My early learning was strictly live performance of music. I listened to a lot of radio. If I went to a show featuring a band I had heard I was almost invariably disappointed that the band sounded not at all good compared to their records. I had no idea that they could/would stitch together pieces of the music to make the record. Silly me.

OIL prices could drop to about $US40 a barrel in the medium term as new supplies are found, and might fall even further in the long run, according to the chief executive of BP.
But Lord Browne cautioned that "we cannot really expect that prices will drop back sharply in the short term", in an interview published on Monday in the German weekly, Der Spiegel.
He said large new oilfields were still being found and regions such as West Africa had significant oil supplies.
Lord Browne said sources such as Canada's oil sands also could be tapped profitably, adding that production costs still amounted only to a small proportion of the price. "It is very likely that, in the medium term, prices will stand at about $US40 on average," Lord Browne was quoted as saying.
"In the very long run, even $US25 to $US30 are possible."
Oil prices have soared recently, pushed up notably by tensions over Iran's nuclear ambitions.
Iran said at the weekend it had accepted some parts of a Western plan to get it to drop its nuclear program, but rejected others.
Light sweet crude for July delivery was down US18c to $US71.45 a barrel in Asian electronic trading on Nymex.

For 2020 the Keukenhof Gardens are unfortunately closed due to the Corona Virus situation. But since I never shared my photos from last year, I just have to share them this year, ready for you to visit next year!
The Keukenhof Castle is open all year round for visitors, but only 8 weeks in Spring is the gardens open to the public. During these 8 weeks, you should experience the full beauty of the season by walking through the walkways and exhibitions with full bloom tulips!
With the Keukenhof located at Lisse, this pretty Dutch location is not far from Amsterdam or Rotterdam. With buying an entrance ticket online, buy yourself a combination ticket that provides you easy transport to save money!
So is it really full of tulips only? Well no, it’s not! At the Keukenhof you can find some amazing collections of other flowers too. As you find yourself walking along the pretty walkways and secret areas, you will come across many more types of spring flowers in bloom.
Exploring the park, you will find yourself seeing also bluebells, daffodils, hyacinths, roses, poppies, lilies, orchids, carnations and crocuses. The prettiest place for that Spring feeling!
What Else Can You See At The Keukenhof Gardens
As well as the millions of beautiful bulbs in the gardens, there are special indoor exhibitions of flower decorations. There are also many events that you can go and watch too, such as a bird show or a costume show.
Keep in mind that the Keukenhof is a place where you can walk only, so don’t expect to rent a bike here. If you want to cycle along the tulip fields outside of the park, check out our Tulips In The Netherlands post!
Regarding their facilities, the Keukenhof gardens are suitable for all. There are many places for food inside the park, but we recommend taking a picnic and finding a spot on one of the special grass areas.
Fun Facts About The Keukenhof Gardens
There are over 7 million bulbs are planted every year by the 40 gardeners.
You can also see the art work from Museum Kröller-Müller, the Paleis Het Loo and 25 artists.
Dogs are allowed to explore the park with you, as long as they are kept on their leash.
Flowerbeds are synchronised by the gardeners, allowing bulbs to bloom throughout the 8 week opening period.
In 2019, the Keukenhof Gardens received 26,000 visitors per day on average, with 4 days where they reached 45,000 visitors in a day!
In the 8 week opening period in 2019, 1.5 million visitors enjoyed the Keukenhof Gardens in total.
You can enjoy special sections such as the English Landscape Garden and the Japanese Country Garden within the park.
Best Time To Visit
Of course the Keukenhof Gardens are only open during the Spring for 8 full weeks. The park can get extremely busy during the opening months, as many tourists from cruise ships have their excursions here. So the best time to go on your chosen day is as soon as they open, or after lunch, as the cruise ship tourists would have already left by then.
When I visited, we were there by the opening and as we had our tickets bought online already we were in the park within seconds. It was already a little busy, but perfectly enjoyable right from the start.
As a nice tip – you can view the Keukenhof gardens map online before your visit, allowing you to plan a walking route for when you get there!
TIP: If you visiting the Netherlands for the first time, check out this Lonely Planet Netherlands guide that is great for all up to date information and recommendations for the country! Else they have a brand new Lonely Planet Amsterdam guide book for the capital, as well as a pocket-sized Lonely Planet Pocket Rotterdam for Rotterdam, which I also own and can highly recommend.
Check out our other Spring posts!
Tulips in the Netherlands (outside of the Keukenhof!)
We can highly suggest that you don’t miss out on visiting the Keukenhof when you are next in the Netherlands for Spring time.
You can find all up to date information and tickets via the main website of the Keukenhof Gardens here!
- Go at the opening time, or late in afternoon
- Buy tickets in advance online
- Take a picnic for one of the special grass areas
Pin for later:
Thanks for sharing our Keukenhof Gardens post!

A new research study from Ladders reveals that 82% of high-earning professionals surveyed believe they deserve a raise next year, but only 25% asked for one in the past year — which raises interesting questions about raises, promotions, and how professionals go about getting them.
With the Great Recession a decade in the rearview mirror, America’s top professionals are feeling more confident in their abilities, and their worthiness for additional compensation. But they still aren’t asking for it.
82% of respondents agreed that they deserved a raise next year, while only 25% had asked for a raise in the past 12 months. Nonetheless, approximately two-thirds of survey participants indicated that they had received a raise in the past year.
Almost half of respondents settled for a meager raise of 3% or less in the past year, while only 8% reported a 15% or greater increase from their employer.
Promotions are coming much faster in the modern era, with almost a quarter of respondents indicating they had been promoted with less than 12 months on the job. An additional 23% indicated it took them leaving their employer to get promoted.
Ladders professionals responded to the following:
“I deserve a raise next year”:
“I asked for a raise in the past year”:
“I received a raise in the past year”:
“My most recent raise was”:
|Greater than 15%||8%|
“I deserve a promotion next year”:
“For my most recent promotion, I was promoted after ＿＿ months on the job”:
|Less than 12 months||24%|
|4 years or longer||15%|
|I changed companies to get my promotion||23%|
Ladders, Inc. research study conducted October 20th to October 27th, 2019 among the members of the Ladders professional community. 1,233 responses were recorded. Gender distribution was 75% male, 25% female. Average annual compensation of respondents was $148,000.

The recent face-off between the embattled Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno state, the Nigeria Army and some aides of President Goodluck Jonathan over whether the nation can win the war against Boko Haram is a healthy one. The face-off is healthy because the insurgents have held one of Africa’s largest armies, the Nigeria Army, hostage for more than two years, with the Nigeria Army unable to end the insurgency and allow normal life and governance to return to that part of the country.
The first salvo that led to the exchange of claims and counter-claims came from the amiable and hard-working governor, who, distraught at the large scale and routine killings of his people by the insurgents, declared that the country is at war. The governor, who has buried about 300 of his people in the last two weeks of February alone, further expressed doubt whether the nation’s army has the capacity to win the war; as they appear to be less equipped and motivated than the Boko Haram.
Governor Shettima’s outburst elicited an immediate reaction and rebuttal from the military high command in Abuja. Army spokesman reiterated the fact that the military is on top of the situation and that they are well equipped to defeat the insurgents, contrary to Shettima’s position. President Jonathan, in a media chat last week, also threatened to withdraw the troops from Borno state, if the governor believed they were inefficient.
The exchange between the governor and the army is quite healthy as the recent situation in the state and those of Yobe and Adamawa indicate a resurgence of the Boko Haram. And the way the insurgents have operated of late to the point of overrunning military facilities in the state, gives cause for concern. Many Nigerians heaved a sigh of relief when the Defence headquarters set up a new division of the army to give teeth and impetus to the fight but so far, the objectives are yet to be realised.
Now the posers: what exactly is preventing the military from routing the Boko Haram? If an insurgency could hold the big Nigeria Army hostage, what would happen to the nation if there is a determined invasion by a foreign army? Are Nigerians being told the truth about what is going on in Borno state or is the country being held hostage by fifth columnists, who for one reason or the other, are interested in keeping the North-east in turmoil?
The lingering insurgency detracts from the reputation and professionalism of the Nigeria Army. Any patriotic Nigerian should be worried by the shoddy performance of the army so far. For this reason, we urge President Jonathan to consider the demand of the House of Representatives to relocate the office of the Chief of Army Staff to Maiduguri, capital of Borno state, for better coordination of the campaign. Also, Nigeria should reach out to Cameroun, Chad and Niger to form a security cordon in the North-east to contain the insurgents. The army needs to come to grips with the situation on ground.
The intervention by Doyin Okupe, President Jonathan’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs, in defence of the army’s role in the campaign is uncalled for and borne out of sheer idleness. As a medical doctor by training, Okupe lacks the knowledge and background to understand and appreciate military strategy, doctrine and the challenges of counter-insurgency and guerrilla warfare. He would do his paymasters and a troubled nation a world of good if he restricts himself to the mundane and anti-intellectual things he is used to.

CHASING BLACK MARLIN IN A NEW MARITIMO 550 IS A THRILL OF A LIFETIME
Aussie Rules – Story and Photography by Gary Caputi
From Lizard Island south to Cairns and just a short distance offshore from where the Coral Sea throws itself relentlessly against Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, sea creatures of mythic proportions reside for a few months each year. Massive animals, graceful in form with incredible strength, that in turn entice a select group of fishermen from around the globe to converge here. In these fabled waters, home to the largest black marlin from late October through December, is a fairytale ecosystem most anglers will only dream about, the largest coral reef in the world- 3,000 individual reefs and 900 islands stretching 1,600 miles, composed entirely of living organisms, inhabited by exotic fishes and colorful marine life.
Cairns, pronounced “cans” by locals, is the northernmost city in Queensland, the main access to the Reef and thus the epicenter of the big game fishing world in those months when gladiators in multimillion dollar sportfishing vessels take up residence with a common purpose: to do battle with a grander, or a marlin over 1,000 pounds.
After 32 hours of jets, airports, and connections I finally arrived in Cairns sometime after dark. Drowsy and dazed, I stumbled up to the car rental counter and was told only one vehicle, which I hesitate to call a car, was available. Only slightly larger than a roller skate, it did manage to get me to the Shangri La Hotel before I passed out. I awoke to a new day and, throwing open the curtains, was greeted by a beautiful red sunrise over the world-class marina just below my window. A freighter was entering port, gliding silently past several hundred vessels: sportfisherman, megayachts, cruisers, sailboats, and large tourist catamarans. My ride, Maritimo’s first “game boat” in local parlance, was en route, leaving me time to explore Cairns, established in 1876 as a port for the newly discovered Hodgkinson Goldfield.
Cairns and the surrounding area proved to be an exotic mix of scenic wonders steeped in the rich (and complicated) history of a native peoples and conquering Europeans, much like that of the United States. The town center is comprised of the oldest buildings in a sprawling city of 130,000. Heading back to my hotel I passed trees filled with what I thought were strange, noisy birds. Upon closer examination, the “birds” turned out to the dog-faced bats with a two-foot wingspan; these flying foxes, as they are called, were everywhere. Definitely strange, the airborne mammals are considered a local treasure, nurtured and protected by town folk and naturalists alike.
Yearly flooding that blocked supplies and caused starvation an death in the inland mining camps led to the construction of the Kuranda Railway, a monumental engineering feat which runs from Cairns along the sheer walls of Barron Gorge to lush rainforest mountains, traversing dozen of bridges built into the face of the gorge and passing through 16 tunnels cut by hand through solid rock. Kuranda Station is a scene from another time, nestled serenely beneath a canopy of tropical trees festooned with bright red flowers, quaint walkways and hanging plants.
Kuranda town, filled with historic buildings and tourist delights, lies just beyond and includes wildlife parks where you can pet kangaroo and koala, and a central market where you can browse displays of opal jewelry, crocodile leather goods and authentic aboriginal art, and even the odd didgeridoo, the native instrument made from a hollow tree limb that creates a deep, cooing sound. The trip down the mountain, via the Rainforest Skyrail, a modern cable lift that skims over the top of the ancient trees and valleys, was even more dramatic than the trip up.
At the base of the Skyrail is the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park where you can learn about the first Australians from the natives themselves, while trying your hand at throwing a boomerang and witnessing tribal ceremonies dating back over 40,000 years.
Back in Cairns late that afternoon, I walked down to the marina and found my fishing chariot nestled in a floating slip on B-Dock, along with Sharky Miles, renowned Aussie marlin captain and master of the new sportfisher.
The 550 is the builder’s first sport fishing model and it is a beauty. The hull sports a graceful sheer that sweeps back from a proud bow to a cockpit with a teak sole and varnished teak covering boards inlaid into the gunwale. The modern, flowing lines of the deckhouse and bridge are a perfect complement to the sheer. A U.S.-made Release Marine fighting chair was centered near the transom and a unique removable rigging station was set into the forward starboard side. Remove the rigging station, pop in the cushions and a mezzanine couch appears, just one of the many innovative design features of what would proved to be a remarkably adept and superbly comfortable fishing yacht.
We departed Cairns the next morning, motoring up the inside passage between the Reef and mainland. Our destination was the middle of an area called the Ribbon Reefs. Sharky and I spend the time in the plush, enclosed portion of the bridge with Chris Elliott, my fishing partner from Newport Beach, California. The helm station had twin 15-inch Northstar monitors and a tiny set of digital, fly-by-wire controls connected to the twin 1,015-hp C-18 Caterpillar diesels, which gave us a very comfortable and fuel efficient 28-knot cruising speed.
The hull has the engine room positioned further forward than other boats in its class, which results in a lower center of gravity and reduced shaft angle. Sharky said the design added to the boat’s solid rough water performance, fuel-efficient operation, and the ability to back down on a big fish (at speeds exceeding eight knots!). A Captain’s action station on a balcony overlooking the cockpit features a more traditional pod, with individual throttle and shift levers spaced wide on either side of the wheel offering pinpoint control when it’s time to throw the boat around during a marlin brawl.
As I would soon see, the boat would prove capable of handling anything the biggest, baddest marlin could throw at it. But the first afternoon passed without a single knockdown as we trolled three baits arrayed from the riggers- a 10-pound skipjack rigged to skip on the surface from the short; a three-pound scad rigged with a chin weight to swim subsurface from the long; and a huge, silver mackerel down the center. Big baits for a big fish!
With nothing to show for the day we idled into an anchorage behind Opal Reef to spend the night. Our hostess, Jeanine Grant, set out an antipasti platter and a couple bottles of fine Australian wine on the fighting chair to help assuage our disappointment while she put the finishing touches on dinner- roast leg of lamb with all the trimmings.
The galley on the 550 is a cook’s dream, easily large enough for two people to work without tripping over each other. Two dining tables and L-shaped couches in the spacious saloon make feeding the entire crew, plus a boat full of guests, a sit-down affair.
While we were up early the next morning, there was no hurry to get to the fishing grounds. Sharky advised us that blacks rarely bite well early in the day; the best action gets underway in the late morning or early afternoon and can continue straight through until dark. We hobnobbed with our anchorage neighbors, a lovely family of Kiwis there for marlin season in a new, American-built G&S 48; then headed out to catch and rig some fresh baits. Since the fishing had been slow the day before, Sharky ran back to the south to Jenny Louise Shoals, off Cairns, cruising outside the Reef in two-to four-foot quartering head seas. The Maritimo was unfazed.
We arrived just in time for the afternoon bite. In the first hour we hooked a 250-pound male that jumped and pulled line off the 130-lb class tackle for 10 minutes before surrendering. Heavy tackle makes fast work of fish less than a quarter of a ton. After another hour of trolling, awaiting my turn at the rod, something took place that will remain forever burned in my memory.
One moment Sharky was yelling, “Big fish! Huge fish! Coming across!” The next moment a black marlin, bigger than any fish I have ever seen, charged out of the water and engulfed the skipjack on the portside short rigger, pulling the line from the release clip with a sound like a rifle shot. As I ran to the rod the line from the release clip with a sound like a rifle shot. As I ran to the rod the line from the long rigger on the other side of the cockpit was pulled from its clip- we had a double header! I jumped into the chair with Rowan behind me, while Chris and Derek worked to keep the smaller second marlin in check. My big girl charged off with the Maritimo in hot pursuit, line pealing from the huge reel as the massive fish rose into one awesome jump after another. Starting with 40-pounds of drag I inched the drag up higher at Sharky’s command and eventually the fish was pulling 75 pounds and I was balancing with my legs trying to keep from being pulled from the chair.
The power of a fish this big is impossible to describe and the techniques used to fight them are very different. When the boat is backing down or spinning on the fish the angler prevents slack in the line by reeling like a madman. To gain line the angler loads the rod using his legs and body weight and then puts the line on the reel by cranking until his bottom is precariously up and down out of the chair.
When the fish was worked close to the boat Derek grabbed the leader; as if on cue, it rose halfway out of the water, a towering prsence displaying all its awesome power. After a few boatside pictures the line was clipped and the massive fish swam away. When I asked Sharky how big the fish was he smiled and said, “Easily 950 to 1,000 pounds, mate. Your first grander!”
Another small fish was caught before the day was over and we headed back to Cairns for dinner and to rest up to do it again the next day. We left the marina and headed out into a much livelier Coral Sea, the wind blowing 20 to 25 from the East. Crossing through a very shallow, narrow cut in Jenny Louise Shoal to get outside was a great test of the boat’s handling in gnarly conditions that would have caused a lot of boats to turn for home, but the 550 handled it neatly.
Once through, the Maritimo was on its way in six- to eight-footers. We trolled in the troughs, in head and following seas, without so much as a misstep or roll, the hull exhibiting excellent seakeeping manners. The first fish of the day was a small male, about 125 pounds, which put on a quick aerial display before release. Not long after another huge black smashed the bait on the center rigger and missed the hook.
“Reel, reel, reel, mate,” screamed Sharky. “Reel as fast as you can. Here she comes. She’s on it! Free spool!” the bait dropped back into the maw big enough to swallow a man, the drag was engaged, the throttles pushed down to finish setting the hook and the battle was on.
From the flybridge, cameras in hand, I recorded the fight, which lasted an hour and a half, the huge marlin sounding and staying deep after the first half hour. Sharky used every trick in the book to coax her back to the surface with practiced skill, taking full advantage of the boat, which responded instantaneously to his every command. Grudgingly the huge fish came shallow where the battle continued. the massive marlin, which Sharky said would weigh between 1,000 and 1,100 pounds, took off again. At times the boat was making eight knots in reverse, water flying over the transom only to disappear just as quickly through a scupper system unique to the Maritimo.
About the time Chris was thinking he couldn’t take much more the fish provided an opening for Derek to grab the leader. The catch was official, but as he tried to bring the fish close for pictures the line parted just above the hook, the 650 test leader chafed through by jaw and bill.
Heading triumphantly back to Cairns with two granders in two days, the only two caught by the entire fleet, the Maritimo ran away from the other boats at a fast 30-knot cruise. Team Maritimo was all the talk on the VHF and on the docks later than night when we shared a victory dinner at the Water Bar and Grill overlooking the marina. Then they headed back north with several clients interested in this great, new game boat and a shot at catching a grander.

Licensed Master Social Worker
under the supervision of Amy Waldner, LCSW
Therapy is an opportunity to create a safe container in which we can become open and curious--instead of fearful or defended—about thoughts, feelings, and behavior that are problematic and unproductive.
I believe in making a good start in a client’s personal journey by being approachable, empathetic and establishing clear, useful boundaries.
I work in a psychodynamic frame, incorporating mentalization, narrative, and CBT techniques, with adolescents and adults.
I am a Trauma Fellow trained at the University of Houston and have over 20 years’ experience working in the recovery community. I am passionate about both individual and group therapy.
In addition to being a psychotherapist, I have enjoyed a 29-year career as a recording engineer and producer, working on platinum records and Grammy-winning performances. Helping musical creatives manifest their best performance under challenging circumstances is very similar to working as a therapist to help each client manifest their best self.
Clients who self-identify as ‘being creative' or as 'a creative.' Such clients have an additional layer of complexity to their personality and their ability to organize their world
Clients who are experiencing life challenges due to past and current trauma
Alcohol, drug, or process addictions (sex, love, and co-dependency)
Issues around aging and later life experiences.
Contact me directly for a free, brief consultation to determine if we are a good fit for the work.
I can be reached directly at 713-701-9362, or by clicking the buttons below.
Rate: $200 for a 50 minute session
The above rate is the full fee this therapist charges for a standard 50 minute session. However, we do not want cost to be prohibitive of people getting the help they need. All of our therapists provide a portion of their services for a reduced fee to help those who can benefit from psychotherapy but might not be able to afford their full fee.

HONOLULU (KHON2) — According to resales figures released provided by the Honolulu Board of Realtors®, condo sales jumped 134% in June compared to the same time last year. The median price was also up 9%, standing at an impressive $460,000.
But condo sales aren’t the only thing on the rise. Single-family homes rose 49.3% from what they were last year, when real estate activity first began to pick back up. The median sales price of a single-family home edged past June’s record to reach $979,000.
“We are in a vastly different market now compared to this time last year when activity was slowly starting to ramp up versus now where properties are moving into escrow in record time,” said Shannon Heaven, President of the Honolulu Board of REALTORS®. “In particular, the condo market surged in 2021 because some buyers decided not to pursue a single-family home due to the severe lack of inventory and competitive bidding wars.”
As of July, the trend of properties selling over the asking price persists, with 57.7% of single-family homes and 32.9% of condos closing above the original asking price. The board says over-asking price sales confirm bidding wars are occurring predominantly in mid-range price points for single-family home properties.
“The steep competition and prevalence of bidding wars illustrate the extreme lack of inventory we are facing on Oahu,” added Heaven. “We are in desperate need of more properties to house our local families, especially in the affordable to mid-range price points.”
