Abstract: In order to simultaneous meet the requirements of indoor lighting comfort and minimum energy consumption, the intelligent control strategy is studied, which apply the natural light and best combination of lighting lamps in the indoor lighting. The modified particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is introduced. The system combines natural light with artificial lighting. The comfort function is established in the system. The particle swarm optimization algorithm with constraint condition is used to search the best brightness combination of lighting equipment. At last, the goal of energy saving can be achieved while meeting the comfort and personalized needs of the staff. The MATLAB simulation results show that the modified PSO can avoid the local optimal solution in the optimization. Finally, the experimental platform of indoor lighting system is built, and the effectiveness of the control strategy is verified. The calculation shows that the energy consumption of one day is about 47%, and it has good energy saving effect.
I disagree and dismissing other opinions as fanboy opinions is silly. They never said it would be or intended it to be ‘like the card game’. If you set those expectations for yourself you can hardly blame anyone else for not upholding them. 

I don’t think it’s a great game but it is about as good as I expected from a boardgame company trying to make a video game. It’s not a boardgame and was never trying to be.  But considering they initially wanted to call it mansions of madness, I have no idea why you would anticipate it being like the card game.

It’s not a digital boardgame and they never said it would be. It’s a video game.Colombia was accepted into the Corporate Governance Committee of the of the international economic organisation OECD on Wednesday, marking a step towards the full membership sought by the South American country.
Entry to this committee marks the 15th of 23 stages in the ascension process towards full membership of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
Colombia officially began the ascension process in October 2013 and this latest announcement is seen as a major milestone and recognition for their work regarding the economy.
“We have been doing very judicious work so that through good corporate governance, our state enterprises are becoming more efficient, more transparent and more successful. This OECD approval is a recognition of this work, “said Finance Minister Mauricio Cardenas.
Cardenas presented the delegates of the member countries of the OECD with the reforms undertaken by the South American country to improve their management of state enterprises and their efforts in raising the corporate governance standards.
The finance minister said the
