Literature Review
Interviews
Data Modelling
Concept Generation - Strategic Solution
Prototyping
Usability Evaluation
Moral Distress occurs when an individual’s moral integrity is seriously compromised, either because one feels unable to act in accordance with core values and obligations, or attempted actions fail to achieve the desired outcome. Dr. Lucia aims in providing a healthy environment where critical care nurses make their optimal contributions to patients and families. In this attempt, they are looking to develop a solution which will enable the nurses to record the level of distress they have been experiencing during the past week. There are many contributing factors to this feeling of Moral Distress such as Clinical Triggers, Internal Factors, Communication and Interpersonal issues, Institutional and Environmental factors, Legal and Regulatory factors etc. Dr. Lucia Wocial, an Ethicist Nurse Researcher, is mentoring us on the project. Her research combines ethics and distress amongst the nurse community and studies their implications on the behavior. Our initial meetings with her shaped our understanding of the problem space. To dig more, we reviewed more research papers that Dr. Lucia provided us and we reviewed a few on our own to understand where the technology stand in helping address the stress issues.
Meetings with Dr. Lucia and the literature review done in the initial phase gave us the business requirements. On the basis of that, we designed our interview sessions. This was a phase of discovery for us as a team. We decided to go with semistructured interviews along with a survey to gather usage of technology and what are the major contributing factors towards Moral Distress. Also, one of the question we deliberately added to the survey was to understand if the nurses are willing to share their experience with others. We were taken aback by their experiences when they felt moral distress. How much pain they go through on some of the days and we are so ignorant about it. Some of the insights that we got from this data gathering technique were quite surprising and completely opposite to Dr. Lucia's research:
We conducted Affinity Diagramming session to make sense of the interview data. It gave us different categories for Nurse and Nurse Manager profile separately. e.g. For Nurse Persona, we found out the reasons for Moral Distress, ways to cope up with it, concerns they have. Similarly for Nurse Manager Persona, how do the Nurse Managers identify if a nurse is experiencing Moral Distress and not just stress, how do they address or provide help to nurses so that they can cope up with it. Even Nurse Managers had concerns for the tools to cope up or record. They had great suggestions for us on how they want to see the aggregate score of moral distress in a particular unit.
Next step was to create a model which will lead us to our three concepts of problem solution. We chose mental model diagramming to understand our users' motivation to use the system or app. What do they presently do when they experience Moral Distress, what are the different hurdles they face, how system helps them cope up with it. It guided us to our three concepts of solutions to the problem. It gave us the direction in visioning our solution.
Using Balsamiq, we created Low-fidelity mockups. We were able to a demonstrate our designs to our Mentor who is a Nurse Ethicist, a Nurse Educator, a Nurse Program Manager and a Shift Co-ordinator. Ther initial feedback gave us a few directions for our high-fidelity prototype. However, they were quite happy to see the shape of their imagination. Putting up the Low-fidelity prototypes of the three important concepts
A nurse is able to record her Moral Distress level
Strategies help the nurses momentory crisis management and Huddle will help them share their experience with other nurses.
After interating over our low-fidelity prototypes, we included all the suggestions that we received from the stakeholders. We created workflow and we realized that there are a few screens that need to be included. We included everything in out high-fidelity prototype created with Axure RP. This is still work in progress. We will soon be evaluating our prototype to get feedback on our designs from Nurses. Dr. Lucia is curious to know the cost involved in developing the prototype into a product. It is a great opportunity for us as students to work on the estimates, so we know what exactly happens in the real world when we design.
Nurse records his/her Moral Distress level and contributing factors. A summary screens to review their selection, and may change any of the input by going back to the relevant meter screen. We designed three crisis management screens of 5 seconds each to calm them down momentarily.
As the AACN 4 A's Model suggests we assess and ask them to act on it. So we suggested them to take up a few intervention strategies of 5 minutes each e.g. Meditation, Adult coloring etc. We again take the feedback from them if they feel any better at that moment after taking up the activity. If not we ask them if they would like to take up any other activity and navigate them accordingly. If not we suggest them to talk to someone and suggest a list of appropriate people to talk to. If they choose one from the list, we open up a channel to chat with that person.
Huddle is a chat feature that allows them to share their experience with their hospital contacts and get help. When they establish a chat with another Nurse or Nurse Ethicist, we tell them about the Moral Distress Level and the contributing factors the Nurse has chosen in Meter.
Profile feature helps the Nurse to track her Moral Distress level and what strategies helped him/her to cope up with it. Nurses can edit the information about them, so that they have better options for interventions based on their interests.
We recruited 6 participants for User Testing. We conducted cognitive walkthrough with our first participant nurse considering her Domain Experties. It helped us review and revise the workflows and interactions. we iterated over the prototype to accommodate the suggestions of our Domain Expert. With other participants we condcuted test on the refined prototype. We asked them to rate the app based on the Intuitiveness and Appearance for each feature. The results proved that we need very little improvements in the interactions and content. Some workflows will be improved based on Dr. Wocial's inputs.
In the future work, we planned to develop the website for Nurse Managers to see the aggregate Moral Distress Levels of a Nursing Unit and track the progress of individual Nurse. Also, a wearable app design based on the notification of the Sever Moral Distress Level in each of the unit
This application has great potential to assist nurses to navigate the emotional components of the experience of moral distress. Further work is needed to develop the app to assist with navigating the ethical challenges that led to the feelings of distress. - Dr. Lucia Wocial


German FM appeals for European unity in face of challenges
BERLIN (AP) - Germany’s foreign minister is appealing for European countries to unite in the face of global challenges such as climate change and migration.
In an op-ed published Saturday in 26 EU countries, Foreign Minister Heiko Maas recalled the fall of the Berlin Wall almost 30 years ago that spelled the end of Germany’s decades-long division during the Cold War.
Maas said Germany owed thanks to the hundreds of thousands of East Germans who protested peacefully against the communist regime, but also to democracy activists in other Eastern bloc countries and leaders on both sides of the ideological divide who paved the way to German re-unification.
He said the events of Nov. 9, 1989, gave “rise to an obligation for us, namely to complete the project that is the unification of Europe,” which his country will work toward.

Former President Jimmy Carter Enters Hospital for Surgery
ATLANTA (AP) — Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter was going into surgery Tuesday morning at Emory University Hospital to relieve pressure on his brain, his spokeswoman said.
by Breitbart NewsThe procedure is meant to resolve bleeding due to his recent falls, Deanna Congileo said in a statement.
Carter has fallen at least three times this year. The first incident, in the spring, required hip replacement surgery. He hit his head falling again on Oct. 6 and received 14 stitches, but still traveled to Nashville, Tennessee, to help build a Habitat for Humanity home shortly thereafter. And he was briefly hospitalized after fracturing his pelvis on Oct. 21.
Carter also received a dire cancer diagnosis in 2015, announcing that melanoma had spread to his liver and brain. He was treated with radiation and immunotherapy, and later said he was cancer-free.
Nearly four decades after his presidency, and despite a body that’s failing after 95 years, the nation’s oldest-ever ex-president still teaches Sunday school roughly twice a month at Maranatha Baptist Church in his tiny hometown of Plains in southwest Georgia. His message is unfailingly about Jesus, not himself.

Recently, Ghosh Babu spent his winter
vacation on Kyakya Island. During the vacation, he
visited the local casino where he came across a new card
game. Two players, using a normal deck of 52 playing
cards, play this game. One player is called the Dealer
and the other is called the Player. First, the Player
picks a card at random from the deck. This is called the
base card. The amount in rupees equal to the face value
of the base card is called the base amount. The face
values of Ace, King, Queen and Jack are ten. For other
cards, the face value is the number on the card. Once,
the Player picks a card from the deck, the Dealer pays
him the base amount. Then the dealer picks a card from
the deck and this card is called the top card. If the
top card is of the same suit as the base card, the
Player pays twice the base amount to the Dealer. If the
top card is of the same colour as the base card (but not
the same suit) then the Player pays the base amount to
the Dealer. If the top card happens to be of a different
colour than the base card, the Dealer pays the base
amount to the Player.
Ghosh Babu played the game
4 times. First time he picked eight of clubs and the
Dealer picked queen of clubs. Second time, he picked ten
of hearts and the dealer picked two of spades. Next
time, Ghosh Babu picked six of diamonds and the dealer
picked ace of hearts. Lastly, he picked eight of spades
and the dealer picked jack of spades. Answer the
following questions based on these four
games.
108. If Ghosh Babu stopped playing
the game when his gain would be maximized, the gain in
Rs. would have been
1. 12 2. 20 3. 16 4.
4
109. The initial money Ghosh Babu had
(before the beginning of the game sessions) was Rs. X.
At no point did he have to borrow any money. What is the
minimum possible value of X?
1. 16 2. 8 3.
100 4. 24
110. If the final amount of
money that Ghosh Babu had with him was Rs. 100, what was
the initial amount he had with him?
1. 120 2.

bibulous_test module¶
Bibulous_test.py is a script which runs through the entire Bibulous regression testing suite.
The basic approach of the tests is as follows: (1) Once a change is made to the code (to fix a bug or add functionality), the writer should add an entry to the
/test/test1.bib file, where the “entrytype” gives an indication of what the test is for. For example, the entry in the BIB file may start with
@test_initialize1{…and provide an “author” field where one or more authors have names which the code for generating initials can potentially break is not written carefully. Include a 1-line comment about the purpose of the entry as well.
- If this is something which can be checked with normal options settings, then add a corresponding line in the BST file defining how that new entrytype (“test_initialize1”) should be formatted. If different options settings are needed, then a new BST file is needed. To make this, copy the “test1.bst” file, remove the entrytype definitions (you can keep them, but they would be redundant), and change the options to the needed settings. Then add a line in this file to define the entrytype template.
- Add a line “citation{key}” to the AUX file where “key” is the key given in the new entry of the BIB file you just put in (e.g. “test_initialize1”)
- Add two lines to the test1_target.bbl file (one for the “bibentry” function call, and one for the entry contents) to say what the formatted result should look like.
- Finally, run this script to check the result. This script will load the modified BIB and BST files and will write out a formatted BBL file “test1.bbl”. It will then try to run a “diff” program on these two files to see if there are any differences between the target and actual output BBL files.
-
bibulous_test.
run_test1
()[source]¶ Test #1 consists of a suite of single tests of options and features that are valid with the default template file.
-
bibulous_test.
run_test10
()[source]¶ Test #10 checks Bibulous’ ability to sort numbers correctly (i.e. “human” sorting, so that “10” goes after, not before, “2”).
-
bibulous_test.
run_test2
()[source]¶ Test #2 loads a number of large .bib database files to put the BibTeX parser and the BBL file writer through a comprehensive set of conditions. Every entry in the BIB files is written to the output BBL file to test as much of the processing chain as possible.
Rather than checking the output against a target file, this test really just makes sure that no exceptions are emitted when processing the entire database through the full chain of functions.
-
bibulous_test.
run_test3
()[source]¶ Test #3 tests that the “authorextract” method functions correctly.
-
bibulous_test.
run_test6
()[source]¶ Test #6 makes sure to raise an exception when attempting to load a BibTeX-format BST file.
-
bibulous_test.
run_test7
()[source]¶ Test #7 checks the operation of generating reference list labels.


The Apprentice fans rage as seventh BAME candidate fired and Lottie Lion remains
The racism row surrounding The Apprentice has deepened after Jemelin Artigas was axed from the show and all the while the allegedly racist Lottie Lion stays on
by Will Twigger, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/will-twigger/The Apprentice racism row deepened during the latest show after the seventh BAME candidate in a row was fired by Lord Sugar.
Budding entrepreneur Jemelin Artigas, who hails from Argentina, was sent packing while a candidate accused of racism toward another contestant remains.
Lottie Lion has been surrounded by controversy since day one, and allegedly told the now-fired Lubna Farhan "shut up Gandhi" in a WhatApp message.
Fans took to Twitter to question why the seven fired candidates have all been from minority ethnic backgrounds.
One wrote: "At first I thought this was a coincidence but this apprentice racism is just too consistent now. And Iasha PM'd the task that made £1mil bu didn't do enough? naaaah."
Another penned: "Can the racism in the Apprentice be any more obvious? #theapprenticeuk."
"It's time to stop watching the apprentice now," a third insisted, "Just look at the pattern in the first seven weeks. Unconscious bias training would be a start! @BBC. Compounded by Lottie's racist rants and you've got to start asking questions. Someone? Anyone? #TheApprentice2019."
The first six weeks of the show saw the firing of Shahin Hassan, Kenna Ngoma, Souleyman Bah, Lubna Farhan, Riyonn Farsad and Iasha Masood.
Jemelin spoke to the Mirror Online about being fired, saying: "I felt like I could have stayed but I also felt I couldn't see myself as Lord Sugar's business partner.
"I don't come from a corporate world, I'm a designer. I've got high morals."
She also hit out at Lottie for her alleged racism, adding: "I just find it really sad. Because you've got 16 contestants, they have given their lives away, giving their jobs, family up....yet we are focusing on completely the wrong thing and I just feel saddened on it.
"We shouldn't just make it about one person. It's not fair on the other contestants.
"She did what she wanted to do and it made me really angry because we have other amazing contestants with amazing backgrounds."

It is vital to assess the heterogeneity of treatment effects (HTE) when making health care decisions for an individual patient or a group of patients. Nevertheless, it remains challenging to evaluate HTE based on information collected from clinical studies that are often designed and conducted to evaluate the efficacy of a treatment for the overall population. The Bayesian framework offers a principled and flexible approach to estimate and compare treatment effects across subgroups of patients defined by their characteristics. This package allows users to explore a wide range of Bayesian HTE analysis models, and produce posterior inferences about HTE. See Wang et al. (2018) <doi:10.18637/jss.v085.i07> for further details.

Tomorrow’s jobs will be very different, experts predict
From driving a space shuttle to mining an asteroid, or even earning millions playing video games — the universe is the limit when it comes to predicting what jobs today’s children will be doing in the future.
From driving a space shuttle to mining an asteroid, or even earning millions playing video games — the universe is the limit when it comes to predicting what jobs today’s children will be doing in the future.
Fields such as space tourism and augmented reality are likely to undergo huge growth but the biggest change is that tomorrow’s workers will likely never hold down a traditional job as we know it, Global Business Futurist Morris Miselowski said.
“They won’t work nine to five, they won’t work Monday to Friday and they will have the ability to earn income through tasks, rather than one job,” Mr Miselowski said.
He predicts that routine jobs which can be easily automated will be the first to go in the changing workplace.
Jobs of the future will be very humanistic and by 2030 the routine nature of work will be given over to technology.
“Any job that is routine, where we can put together a formula, where we can train a machine to do, will have disappeared — bookkeeping, accounting as we know it, and even brain surgery,” Mr Miselowski said.
“Brain surgeons have said outwardly they prefer it when the technology takes over to make it laser perfect.
“When they know that machine can point the laser and never move they will go in and use their wisdom and nuance to best manipulate what has to be manipulated.”
FUTURE JOB PREDICTIONS
Tradies will still be around, but their roles will change, he said.
“We will actually need more trades than we ever did before, so allied health, plumbers and electricians will still exists … but the routine nature of what they do will not. We will still need humans to interpret to do things that machinery can’t,” he said.
His predictions align with research commissioned by Ford Australia and conducted by Deakin University and Griffith University earlier this year.
It found we will work with machines in jobs of the future, rather than compete with them.
Griffith University teaching and curriculum transformation Professor Ruth Bridgstock predicts a more complex world of work.
“Through our research for the 100 Jobs of the Future report, we predict a more complex and changing world of work but one where young people will be able to find or create exciting work opportunities that make the most of their interests and skills,” she said.
WHY WE NEED WOMEN TO TRADE UP
By Patrick Tadros
THE changing face of trades is already taking shape with more women among a boom in TAFE NSW engineering enrolments.
But while there has been a 19.2 per cent increase in engineering enrolments, a skills shortage is looming.
Skills and Tertiary Education Minister Geoff Lee believes it’s more important than ever to get women into the trades sector.
“The skills shortage is not just in NSW but right across the country — we need more apprentices and trainees,” he said.
“One way we can help fix this is to shine a light on great examples of young people like Tayla Adcock developing skills to help them thrive in the real world.”
Ms Adcock, 21, from Camden, is among a rising number of women breaking into the sector. She always knew she wanted to pursue a trade and, after dabbling in many, she found a passion in the fabrication industry.
After completing the My Gateway Program with TAFE NSW, she is now a second-year apprentice boilermaker welder with Camden Engineering.
“I love seeing the finished product of a job I’ve been working on. It gives me great pride in my work and my company to see quality work go out the door,” she said.
Ms Adcock believes career satisfaction helps women push for change.
“There are no limits to what women can do in any trade or field. For me, it’s extremely rewarding.”

[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> nah im not watching any conspiracy videos now
[dscrdeql] <MySoulisNotForSale> why did you tip me
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> i been meaning to tip you for a while
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> because you never on when i rain
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> lol
[dscrdeql] <AndronicusBass-Founder> I used to watch conspiracy videos and decided its a waste of time for me I could be focusing my energy on things I can change
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> yep i am about the same bass
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> but i do like to know what is going on
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> i just dont dig too deep anymore
[dscrdeql] <AndronicusBass-Founder> Yeah, good to be across whats happening, just not too far into it.
[dscrdeql] <MySoulisNotForSale> it's not really a conspiracy. . it's more like "real news" instead of Zionist spew (made in hollywood script)
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> i've already seen most of those videos
[dscrdeql] <AndronicusBass-Founder> I know there are too many questions and inconsistencies
[dscrdeql] <MySoulisNotForSale> I tell you what though ..
[dscrdeql] <MySoulisNotForSale> it's refreshing to be able to mention the Z word here
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> lets just say my official view is there is truth to almost all of them but some of the people making the videos go a little too far
[dscrdeql] <AndronicusBass-Founder> The Z is about supremacy
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> control and supremacy yep
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> wooooooooooooooooooo
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> finished work for the day
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> im thinking i should buy some more kmd?
[dscrdeql] <AndronicusBass-Founder> Our prime minister owns about $50m in investment property, used to be a banker for HSBC and still doesnt want to admit there is a housing affordability crisis. he also didnt want to have an investigation into australian banks and financial institutions.
[dscrdeql] <MySoulisNotForSale> of course not
[dscrdeql] <MySoulisNotForSale> how much is kmd?
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> @AndronicusBass-Founder well there isn't a housing affordability crisis.... not for him and his friends anyway
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> lol
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> its about 1.05 right now
[dscrdeql] <Combat Wom-mod> cheap cheap


The Push API provides webapps with scripted access to server-sent messages, for simplicity referred to here as push messages, as delivered by push services. A push service allows an application server to send messages to a webapp, regardless of whether the webapp is currently active on the user agent. The push message will be delivered to a Service Worker, which could then store the message's data or display a notification to the user.
This specification is designed to promote compatibility with any delivery method for push messages from push services to user agents.
As defined here, push services support delivery of application server messages in the following contexts and related use cases:
This specification defines conformance criteria that apply to a single product: the user agent that implements the interfaces that it contains.

The term webapp refers to a Web application, i.e. an application implemented using Web technologies, and executing within the context of a Web user agent, e.g. a Web browser or other Web runtime environment.
The term application server refers to server-side components of a webapp.
A push message is an indication to a webapp that there is new information for it from the application server. All or part of this information MAY be contained in the push message itself.
A push message MUST be delivered to the active worker associated with the push subscription to which the message was submitted. If the worker or its webapp is not currently running, the worker must be started to enable delivery.
A push subscription is a message delivery context established between the user agent and the push service on behalf of a webapp, and associated with the webapp's service worker registration. A push subscription MUST NOT persist longer than its associated service worker registration, but it MAY be deactivated earlier.
When a push subscription is deactivated both the user agent and the push service MUST delete any stored copies of its details. Further push messages for this push subscription MUST NOT be delivered.
A push subscription has an associated endpoint. It MUST be the absolute URL exposed by the push service where the application server can send push messages to. It MAY be the same for all push subscriptions associated with a push service.
A push subscription has an associated subscription id. It is used by the application server to indicate the target of the push messages that it submits to the push service. Each pair of subscription id and endpoint MUST be globally unique.
The term push service refers to an overall end-to-end system that allows application servers to send push messages to a webapp. A push service has a server reachable at an associated endpoint. Such servers typically expose APIs specific to the push service, e.g. for push message delivery initiation.
The term express permission refers to an act by the user, e.g. via user interface or host device platform features, via which the user approves the permission of a webapp to access the Push API.
User agents MUST NOT provide Push API access to webapps without the express permission of the user. User agents MUST acquire consent for permission through a user interface
for each call to the subscribe()
method, unless a previous permission grant
has been persisted, or a prearranged trust relationship applies. Permissions that are
preserved beyond the current browsing session MUST be revocable.
When a permission is revoked, all push subscriptions created with that permission MUST be deactivated.
When a service worker registration is unregistered, any associated push subscription MUST be deactivated.
The subscription id of a deactivated push subscription MUST NOT be reused for a new push subscription. This prevents the creation of a persistent identifier that the user cannot remove. This also prevents reuse of the details of one push subscription to send push messages to another push subscription.
User agents MUST implement the Push API to be HTTPS-only. SSL-only support provides better protection for the user against man-in-the-middle attacks intended to obtain push subscription data. Browsers may ignore this rule for development purposes only.
Although push services are expected to differ in deployment, a typical deployment is expected to have the following general entities and example operation for delivery of push messages:
This overall framework allows application servers to inform webapps that new data is available at the application server, or pass the new data directly to the webapp in the push message.
The push API enables delivery of arbitrary application data to webapps, and makes no assumptions about the over-the-air/wire protocol used by push services. As such, the details of what types of data flow through a push services for a particular webapp are specific to the push service and webapp. As needed, clarification about what data flows over-the-air/wire should be sought from push service operators or webapp developers.
The following code and diagram illustrate a hypothetical use of the push API.
// https://example.com/serviceworker.js this.onpush = function(event) { console.log(event.data); // From here we can write the data to IndexedDB, send it to any open // windows, display a notification, etc. } // https://example.com/webapp.js navigator.serviceWorker.register('serviceworker.js').then( function(serviceWorkerRegistration) { serviceWorkerRegistration.pushManager.subscribe().then( function(pushSubscription) { console.log(pushSubscription.subscriptionId); console.log(pushSubscription.endpoint); // The push subscription details needed by the application // server are now available, and can be sent to it using, // for example, an XMLHttpRequest. }, function(error) { // During development it often helps to log errors to the // console. In a production environment it might make sense to // also report information about errors back to the // application server. console.log(error); } ); });
This specification does not define either specific normative methods via which webapps can determine the applicable push service, or initiate push requests through that service via a push service API. While these limitations add complexity for webapp developers, they reflect the current reality of a diversity of push services, for which convergence at least on an API level, is not expected to be a short-term possibility. While a converged push service API is a worthwhile goal and may be addressed in a different specification, the Push API defined here has been designed to enable the current variety of push services to be used as appropriate for the webapp host device or software platform. This section provides examples of how a webapp can be designed to work with a variety of hypothetical push services as needed.
The Push API provides several interface parameters and attributes that can enable a webapp to deliver and obtain the necessary push service specific data enabling use of that particular push service. These parameters and attributes include:
subscriptionId
of a PushSubscription
, as an opaque
string to the Push API, may be used by push services to provide meaningful data to the
application server through the webapp. For example, the
subscriptionId
may be used as a push service API request parameter or
request body element.
endpoint
of a PushSubscription
provides a
flexible means for push services to deliver webapp-specific subscription and/or push
service API parameters to the application server, through the webapp.
Push services that are compatible with the Push API will be expected to clarify how these data are used in their APIs, e.g. through their developer programs. Examples of considerations include:
endpoint
, and for a particular API request
require additional parameters e.g. the subscriptionId
.
endpoint
or subscriptionId
be present in some body element.
PushSubscription
attributes may only be used by the application
server to associate the webapp to a specific push service subscription, with the
details of the push service API relying upon other pre-configured data.
The Push API does not provide any PushSubscription
attributes that
normatively identify the particular push service that applies to the subscription.
Webapps that are designed to work with a single push service are assumed to know
inherently how to use the API of that service. For such webapps, a key consideration is
ensuring that if the webapp is used on a device or browser that does not support the
necessary push service, that either the user is informed that the push-dependent webapp
functions will not work, or the webapp must use alternate methods e.g. [[websockets]] or
[[SSE]] to deliver the server-initiated data.
Prior to use of a push service API, application servers
that are designed to work with multiple push services may need to determine the
applicable service by parsing the endpoint
to detect the push service from
the URI domain.
The Service Worker specification defines a ServiceWorkerRegistration
interface
[[!SERVICE-WORKERS]], which this specification extends.
The pushManager
attribute exposes a PushManager
, which has an associated service
worker registration represented by the ServiceWorkerRegistration
on
which the attribute is exposed.
The PushManager interface defines the operations to access push services.
The subscribe
method when
invoked MUST run the following steps:
Promise
.
https
, reject promise
with a DOMException
whose name is "SecurityError
"
and terminate these steps.
PushManager
's associated
service worker registration.
DOMException
whose
name is "InvalidStateError
" and terminate these steps.
DOMException
whose name is
"InvalidStateError
" and terminate these steps.
DOMException
whose
name is "PermissionDeniedError
" and terminate these steps.
DOMException
whose name is "AbortError
" and
terminate these steps.
PushSubscription
providing the details of the retrieved push
subscription.
DOMException
whose name is "AbortError
" and terminate these steps.
PushSubscription
providing the details of the new push
subscription.
The getSubscription
method when invoked MUST run the following steps:
Promise
.
DOMException
whose name is "AbortError
" and terminate these steps.
PushSubscription
providing the details of the retrieved push
subscription.
The hasPermission
method when invoked MUST run the following steps:
Promise
.
PushPermissionStatus
) of the
requesting webapp
PushPermissionStatus
providing the push permission status.
Permission to use the push service can be persistent, that is, it does not need to be reconfirmed for subsequent subscriptions if a valid permission exists.
If there is a need to ask for permission, it needs to be done by invoking the
subscribe
method.
A PushSubscription object represents a push subscription.
When getting the endpoint
attribute, the
user agent MUST return the endpoint associated with the push
subscription.
When getting the subscriptionId
attribute, the user
agent MUST return the subscription id associated with the push
subscription.
The unsubscribe
method when
invoked MUST run the following steps:
Promise
.
false
and terminate these steps.
NetworkError
" exception and terminate these steps.
true
.
PushMessageData objects have an associated bytes (a byte sequence) set on creation.
The arrayBuffer()
method, when invoked, MUST return an ArrayBuffer
whose contents are
bytes.
The blob()
method, when
invoked, MUST return a Blob
whose contents are bytes and
type is not provided.
The json()
method, when invoked,
MUST return the result of invoking the initial value of JSON.parse
with
the result of running utf-8 decode on bytes as argument. Re-throw any
exceptions thrown by JSON.parse
.
The text()
method, when
invoked, MUST return the result of running utf-8 decode on bytes.
In future, PushMessageDataInit is likely to be a union type that includes types such
as Blob
and BufferSource
. The algorithm below would be extended, rather like the Fetch
standard's extract a byte
stream algorithm.
To extract a byte sequence from object, run these steps:
USVString
The Service Worker specification defines a ServiceWorkerGlobalScope
interface
[[!SERVICE-WORKERS]], which this specification extends.
The onpush
attribute is
an event handler whose corresponding event handler event type is
push
.
The onpushsubscriptionchange
attribute is an event handler whose corresponding event handler event type is
pushsubscriptionchange
.
push
event
The PushEvent interface represents a received push message.
Upon receiving a push message for a push subscription from the push service the user agent MUST run the following steps:
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope
of the Service
Worker associated with the webapp.
data
attribute is a new PushMessageData with bytes set to the
binary message data received by the user agent in the push message, or an
empty byte sequence if no data was received.
push
at scope.
When a constructor of the PushEvent interface, or of an interface that inherits
from the PushEvent interface, is invoked, the usual steps for constructing
events MUST be modified as follows: instead of setting the data
attribute of the event to the value of the eventInitDict's "data
" member, set the data
attribute to a
new PushMessageData with bytes set to the result of extracting a byte sequence from that dictionary member, or
an empty byte sequence if eventInitDict is not provided or has no
"data
" member.
pushsubscriptionchange
event
The pushsubscriptionchange
event indicates that a push subscription
has been invalidated, or will soon be invalidated. For example, the push service
MAY set an expiration time. A webapp SHOULD attempt to resubscribe while handling
this event, in order to continue receiving push messages.
To fire a pushsubscriptionchange
event, the user agent MUST run the
following steps:
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope
of the Service
Worker associated with the webapp.
pushsubscriptionchange
at scope.

Many people worry about losing their homes, causing them to make ill-advised decisions, such as handing over their properties to their children during their lifetime. This is something we strongly recommend you do not do, as once you have given your home away, you have lost control over it. If your children were to divorce, become bankrupt, or die, the security of your home would be under threat.
There are two main types of trust to be considered when looking at asset protection.
A Home Protection Trust is a type of ‘safe’ which is designed to protect your home and savings, against any risks that could happen in years to come. The law dictates that the assets are held by the Trust rather than you directly (the trust holds the assets on your behalf), therefore you are protected against anything that may endanger the security of your home or savings in years to come. You still have complete control and can move, sell or invest as before.
A Protective Property Trust (PPT) can be established which will help to protect your estate from being taken to pay for care home fees.
The Property Trust can only be created whilst both partners remain alive. Normally with couples the property is divided 50/50, though these percentages can be different. Upon the first death, their share of the property is placed into the Trust to be administered by the Trustees.
The Will also specifies who is to be the ultimate beneficiary of this share in the property and this would normally be the surviving children of the deceased. The surviving partner, under the terms of the Trust, has the right to remain living in the property for the rest of their life, or even buy another property.
On the death of the second partner the Trust comes to an end and the property passes absolutely to the beneficiaries. The surviving partner does not own the deceased's share of the property.
By transferring your home and assets into a trust, you can continue living in the property for the rest of your life and you become the Trustee. Although the trust then owns the property, you retain all the benefits and flexibility of owning your own home, meaning you can sell the property at any time or move to a smaller property with the trust still in place. When you pass away, the property passes to the beneficiaries named in your Will.
Although you may feel you have a very robust Will in place, if you have not protected your assets during your lifetime, there may be nothing left to leave to your loved ones by the time you pass away. By transferring your assets into a trust during your lifetime, your trust will ensure that your beneficiaries benefit from your lifetime of hard work.
There are lots of other benefits too, including:
By placing your assets into trust during your lifetime, all these pitfalls can be avoided. It takes around 4 – 6 weeks to set up a Home Protection Trust, and once completed, you still own the assets, albeit they are protected by the trust. You can still buy and sell property, cash in or re-invest investments or change your Will at any time.
There are certain tax implications that come into play when setting up a scheme of this nature. At North east estate planning, our experienced and friendly consultants will guide you through the process, explaining any tax implications as they may arise, thereby ensuring you have a full understanding of what you are doing, before you do it. Why not call us today?

SSL:
Encrypt communication to and from your website using SSL.
It may take up to 24 hours after the site becomes active on Cloudflare for new certificates to issue.
Authenticated Origin Pulls:
TLS client certificate presented for authentication on origin pull.
Minimum TLS Version:
Only allow HTTPS connections from visitors that support the selected TLS protocol version or newer.
Opportunistic Encryption:
Opportunistic Encryption allows browsers to benefit from the improved performance of HTTP/2 by letting them know that your site is available over an encrypted connection. Browsers will continue to show “http” in the address bar, not “https”.
Onion Routing:
Onion Routing allows routing traffic from legitimate users on the Tor network through Cloudflare’s onion services rather than exit nodes, thereby improving privacy of the users and enabling more fine-grained protection.
TLS 1.3:
Enable the latest version of the TLS protocol for improved security and performance.


elec: Collection of functions for statistical election audits
This is a bizzare collection of functions written to do
various sorts of statistical election audits. There are also
functions to generate simulated voting data, and simulated
"truth" so as to do simulations to check charactaristics of
these methods.
