A verse by verse commentary on Jeremiah 23 dealing with God's anger at the shepherds of His people who scatter the flock, but God promises to return His people to the land under a righteous shepherd who will guide His people to success.
Forge - DevCon 2016: Integrate & extend your construction ecosystem with BI...Autodesk
Manu Venugopal, Keith White, Saikat Bhattacharya, Autodesk
The BIM 360 web services simplify collaborative workflows from pre-construction through field management to handover of a construction project. In this session, we will discuss a new area of the BIM 360 API: HQ APIs for unified account administration and data across BIM 360. HQ APIs allow customers to integrate with BIM 360 and extend their construction eco-system to automate workflows, reduce manual data entry and improve data quality.
The HQ API plays a critical role as part of the Forge platform, providing a secure and single point of integration for customer accounts, into their projects, partner companies, user management, and other account level information. We will introduce the basic functionalities of the HQ API and present use cases on how early adopters such as Layton Construction and JE Dunn Construction are leveraging this API to add value to their construction ecosystem. We will also share the latest developments and future direction for the BIM 360 product line and APIs,

Yarrow Oral Presentation by Victoria RoyVictoria Roy
Achillea millefolium (Yarrow)has been used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years. There is historical evidence that many cultures including the Greeks, Native Americans, and Dutch have used yarrow medicinally. In the United States, there has been a recent resurgence in the use of essential oils and other homeopathic treatments. Many companies claim that some essential oils, including yarrow, have antimicrobial properties. Our study tested the antimicrobial capabilities of four commercially produced yarrow extracts against four bacterial strains. We used the Kirby Bauer Disk Susceptibility Test on two Gram negative bacteria species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli, and two Gram positive species, Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus. Distilled water was used as a control. Each species was treated with all four oils and the control with three replicates of each treatment. After 24 hour incubation, we measured the zones of inhibition and used paired t-tests to determine if the effects differed significantly among the treatments and the species. All four purchased oils showed significant growth inhibition on B. cereus. Two of the oils showed significant zones of inhibition on S. aureus and E. coli when compared with controls. P. aeruginosa, which is known for having very high antibiotic resistance,showed no measurable zones of inhibition for any of the four oils. In the future, we plan to use steam distillation to prepare yarrow extracts from local plant material and test this known oil in the manner described above.

Forge - DevCon 2016: Collaborative VR using Google Cardboard & the View & Dat...Autodesk
Kean Walmsley, Autodesk Research
One of the issues with VR today relates to the largely solitary experience it delivers: the user is by definition immersed and isolated from the people around them. But this doesn’t have to be the case. Web technology allows us to enable collaborative design reviews in VR, where one person guides others through a virtual experience.
Google Expeditions allows teachers to take their students on virtual field trips to the Great Wall of China or to the bottom of the ocean. We’ll be showcasing a comparable solution – using Forge – for the design industry, whereby architects and engineers can lead a group of participants – each using Google Cardboard – through a design review in a virtual space.
This session will demonstrate a prototype, collaborative VR solution created by a cross-divisional Autodesk team as part of the 2015 VR Hackathon in San Francisco.
