for example, master's degrees, technical or management training, a professional qualification or an additional bachelor's degree if you're already a graduate.
You can use a PCDL to help with course fees – up to 80% of the total, or up to 100% if you've been unemployed for three months – and other course costs, such as books, travel and childcare, plus living expenses, including rent, food and clothing if you are unemployed or working less than 30 hours per week.
You cannot get a PCDL to help with costs covered by other sources of public funding. So, for example, you can't get one if you're planning to study full time for a first degree. But if your costs are only partly covered you may be able to top up the funding with a PCDL. For example, if you're getting a grant for your course fees, you could apply for a loan to help with living costs.
You can't use a PCDL to help pay for the Graduate Diploma in Law, otherwise known as the Common Professional Examination, or CPE; careers advice or help with job hunting, or the costs of running or starting a business.
Advice and an application pack are available if you call the information line on 0800 585 505, open Monday to Sunday, 8am to 10pm, or visit direct.gov.uk/pcdl for details.

Tips To Stay Cool During “Hotpocalypse ’09”
No Comments
Looks like the much-hyped “Hotpocalypse ’09â„¢!” is finally hitting, with temps forecast to be in the 90s over the next several days, prompting local health officials to issue the following common sense tips:
“Protect yourself and your loved ones from heat exhaustion and heat stroke by following these recommendations:
STAY COOL:
Spend more time in air conditioned places. If you don’t have air conditioning, consider visiting a mall, movie theater or other cool public places (ie: Southcenter, where “it’s always a beautiful day”)
Go down to the water – Seahurst Park Beach is a great place to hang out, with a creek and lots of shady areas.
Cover windows that receive morning or afternoon sun.
Dress in lightweight clothing.
Check up on your elderly neighbors and relatives.
DRINK LIQUIDS:
Drink plenty of water or non-alcoholic beverages.
Don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink.
WHILE OUTSIDE:
Limit your direct exposure to the sun.
Do not leave infants, children, people with mobility challenges and pets in a parked car, even with the window rolled down.
Avoid or reduce strenuous activity.
Limit outdoor activity to morning and evening hours.
Avoid sunburn by using a sunscreen with a high SPF (sun protection factor) rating.
Check with your physician if you are concerned about heat and the specific medications you are taking. Certain medications may increase sensitivity to the heat. Do not take salt tablets unless directed to by a physician.
Heat can lead to serious medical problems, particularly for older adults, young children, people with chronic illness, and people with weight or alcohol problems.

NIGHT was a short sexy-time novella. While in town for a business trip entertainment lawyer, Clay, gets a tip to check out a certain bar because of the smokin' hot bartender. Julia, lives up to her description and invites Clay to stay after she closes the bar. Once the bar closes my kindle heated up with their one night of adult fun.
I picked up this novella for free from amazon.com. Check it out if you are interested in this series.
I just love this series, it makes me laugh. This time I really liked the geese and the mum going back to college. Great start to holiday reading.
Better than the first one in my opinion.
** spoiler alert **
This one gets five stars just for my sheer love for it. I usually don't give out more than one or two ratings that high in a year. The writing is very good and the pacing was good and I'm entirely gutted by how it ended. Really inevitable and realistic and the right thing for Will, but along with Louisa, you hold out hope for a different outcome.
The heroin was a little too naive for my liking and for me the story lacked suspense. The big, bad villain was a little flat and not very scary -- I would have wished for more of a backstory of the supernatural powers and politics of this world. I found the combination of Greek mythology and Christian faith a little strange. The romance was lukewarm.
Considering that this is a self-published novel that I got for free through the Kindle Lending Library, it is still a solid story with likeable characters.
About the book:
Young detectives will never tire of this picture-search puzzle book. Readers can pore over 17 cleverly illustrated scenes of Bible events to find the answers to the questions posed on each page. Some puzzles involve looking for details of everyday life, others highlight things that happened in the Bible stories--offering hours of fun to readers as they search for the answers.
With lots to find, this kind of picture book is particularly great for reluctant readers and visual learners, helping all children get an overview of the Bible's history and content as they super-sleuth their way through the book. Warning: may be addictive!
My thoughts:
Most children have a bit of a detective in them. Always searching out tidbits of the unknown and ferreting out information in the smallest form. Well, if you happen to know one of these child-detectives, Bible Detective by Peter Martin is just the book for them. It is actually a learning tool, a story book, a Bible study book, and a "game" all rolled into one.
The illustrations by Peter Kent are tiny, detailed, and packed full of trivia and major points of interest. It is the goal of the reader to find specific hidden items in each illustrated story. And then there is, of course, the hidden "fox" that is tucked away in each scene.
But the larger picture of this book (or should I say "gem")

Hello, is this possible to do in one query:
I have a query which returns 1000 documents with names and addresses. I can run facet on state field and see how many addresses I have in each state. But also I need to see how many families lives in each state. So as a result I need a matrix of states on top and Last Names on right.
After my first query, knowing which states I have I can run queries on each state using facet field Last_Name. But I guess this is not an efficient way.
Is this possible to get in one query? Or may be some other way?
Thank you

Hi,
I'm really happy Ogg Vorbis 1.0 is out.
I have some questions though:
- what are the valid bitrates / channel / sample rate combinations?
experimenting I find that at 22050 Hz I can not use 24 kb/s stereo, and
at 16000 Hz I cannot use 18 kb/s stereo. Is there a table of valid
bitrate / sample rate combinations?
- is there documentation for the encoding API?
looking at the documentation I found some chapters on decoding, but none
on encoding. looking at the libvorbisenc reference
http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/doc/vorbisenc/index.html, for the api
reference link the libvorbisfile (not the enc) reference page comes out.
of course I found encoder_example.c among the sources, and I hope that
it contains all knowledge needed (e.g. I couldn't find out how to
specify a maximum bitrate that will not be exceeded, for streaming purposes)
Nice work,
Akos
Hi all,
I have two home computers (Fedora Core 4 and Windows XP Home) and an
HP printer. I connect to the internet by way of a cable modem, with a
fixed IP address. I need a router that will:
1) Allow both machines to access the internet.
2) Allow both machines to access the printer. I have seen routers with
USB ports for printers- that's what I'm looking for.
3) Allow VPN connections that authenticate with MS-CHAP to outside
computers (you may have seen that in an earlier thread!). As I cannot
get the VPN to work from the fedora box, I'm hoping that the router
will make the necessary connections and the fedora box doesn't need to
worry about it.
4) If the two home computers could access each others files, that
would be great. Right now, we move things about on a disk-on-key.
Thanks, everybody. Any experience that you have in this area is
welcome information.

were adhering to NICE guidance after hip fracture surgery and 44% after hip arthroplasty.
Therefore, the stated rationale and considerations by the authors of the article published Thrombosis Journal on the 12 month review of a modified protocol using low dose Dabigatran etexilate in postoperative thromboembolic prophylaxis in joint replacement surgery, to deviate from the NICE guideline, seem legitimate [10]. On the one hand, the deviation from the guidelines is in favour of increased compliance with protocol by inhospital (junior) staff. On the other hand, enhanced patient compliance and adherence in the out of hospital setting is anticipated by avoiding the need for self administered injections at home.
Usually guidelines fall behind with innovations in clinical practice. After the introduction of new treatment modalities some time passes before synthesized evidence finds its way into guideline recommendations. In the case of the novel oral anticoagulant drugs such as dabigatran and rivaroxaban this implementation into guidelines has been relatively swift.
At this moment there is lack of day-to-day clinical experience with the newly introduced drugs and therefore clinical evidence is less unequivocal. Clinical practice usually differs from the setting of a clinical trial. Post surgical gastrointestinal upset and vomiting may reduce the effectiveness of oral antithrombotic therapy. To start prophylactic treatment post surgery with subcutaneous administered LMWH is therefore an attractive alternative.
The choice of the authors for a combination treatment of two individually established safe and efficient therapeutic treatment modalities is understandable, but has a number of methodological shortcomings. Patient management was instituted without any preliminary studies, such as to identify the optimal, safe and effective, dosing strategy for the overlap of two different treatment modalities. In addition, a pragmatic, nonevidence based, choice was made for the single use of a low dose of 150 mg dabigatran once daily, irrespective of patient characteristics such as bodyweight, age or kidney function. On the other hand, all consecutive patients who met the inclusion criteria were managed according to the protocol, minimising selection bias. Data on complications such as VTE, bleeding, transfusion rates, periprocedural infections and mortality were prospectively collected and reviewed by an independent reviewer to control for bias.
In parallel to the article by Subramanian et al., comparable clinical experience was gained in the United States, in this case in the setting of a clinical study, with similar alternative treatment strategies, bridging the periprocedural period with LMWH and making the transition to oral anticoagulant treatment before hospital discharge [11]. This study investigated the optimal interval for a safe overlap in anticoagulant activity between the LMWH and the oral anticoagulant drug rivaroxaban. The underlying rationale for the study being essentially the same: adapting the strategy to the requirements of day-to-day clinical practice.
The need for (observational) data on the novel oral anticoagulant drugs derived from clinical practice is widely recognized. Despite methodological shortcomings, the recent Subramanian et al. article adds to our knowledge on the everyday use of the novel oral anticoagulant medication and shows that the choice of prophylactic treatment does depend on clinical circumstances but also on patient preference.

Hi,
The following three patches clean up minor stuff I came along while working
in crypto_openssl.c. No functional changes.
1/3 and 2/3 can be applied to master as well as release/2.3, to keep the code
differences between 2.3 and 2.4 smaller. I'll send rebased patches for these
later on.
3/3 requires OpenSSL 0.9.8 or later, so is for master only.

generously provided via Netgalley, and it was a pleasure to provide the above honest review.
Event move so fast, good thing for easily bored readers (type), but it does feels jumpy
the writing are't smooth
but interesting plot
gonna try the 2nd book of the series
The stories get more and more repetitive and boring. Full points for sarcasm, though.
This is the first book in a three part series. Be warned that there is a cliffhanger at the end, but it's nothing unusual for books like this one. It was definitely a whole new level of hotness, and I would have expected nothing less from the creator of Father Bell.
Still, I had some things that bothered me a lot in this book. The first thing was the instant love between the characters. It's never been a favorite trope of mine, but I can accept it when it's well-done or if it fits the story. Unfortunately, I didn't feel like it was the case for this one.
For the first few chapters, when we were still getting the feel of the story and finding out what was going on, I thought it wouldn't be so bad that Greer and Ash felt that strong connection as soon as they met and kissed, even if she was sixteen and he was eight years older. But then she sent him dirty emails after having met him for less than half an hour and continued for some time, as for a year, even if she didn't get any response. Not that it wasn't hot, but it was kind of really weird. I could get past that, but there's more.
When they meet again five years after, he almost kisses her, but it turns out that he's just asked his girlfriend to marry him. And Greer runs out crying because she's in love with this man with whom she has only talked with once in her life. And he sends people to ask her to meet him a year after his wife dies, telling her that he loved his late wife and is grieving, but that he has wanted Greer the whole time.
This was an entertaining story and I ultimately liked it, but all these little things kept bothering me. I'm giving it a three stars because I still finished it and want to know what happens next. I would say that it's more of a guilty pleasure. There were some good parts in this book that did balance everything. The writing was one of them, and the hot scenes with Greer, Ash and Embry certainly didn't hurt. Many people have really loved this unconventional love story, so I think that it may just be a me thing.
As a historian, I love this series since it realistically discusses the complications of racism, mental illness, rape, war and the plight of refugees. Froi is complex, often unlikable, then pitiable and sometimes someone worth admiring. This is not a book for anyone with issues about rape, mental illness or not okay with war-related violence.

Regina rolled her eyes, muttering a 'thank you' when Emma held the door open. The women removed their shoes, entering the kitchen a moment later. Regina emptied the basket, placing it in the cupboard once everything was put away.
"You still want to watch that documentary?"
"If you like."
"What would _you_ like?"
"I don't enjoy television the way that you and Henry do, Emma. But you are the one trying to recover from injuries, not I. We will do what you want until you feel better."
"You don't like tv at all?"
"On occasion, yes, I do enjoy it. But, it is not my preferred method of entertainment."
"What is?"
"Something that offers a challenge. I prefer to be stimulated rather than sit uselessly on a couch."
Emma suppressed her childish need to laugh at the word "stimulated".
"So what can we do instead? What would you pick, if you could?"
"I would suggest a game. Perhaps chess."
"We could play chess."
"You know how to play?" Regina asked skeptically.
"Yeah. Who doesn't know how to play?"
"Can you play well?"
Emma shrugged.
"I'm decent."
"That remains to be seen."
Regina led the way to the living room, pulling out her chess board and setting it on the coffee table.
"Would you prefer to play at the table?"
"No, I'll be fine. If I get too sore, I'll just make you move my pieces for me."
Regina cocked an eyebrow.
"Hey, you offered to take care of me. That includes doing my bidding and putting my chess pieces where I tell you to."
"Oh, I will surely put them _somewhere_ ," she muttered, the corners of her mouth twitching upward when she heard the sound of Emma's laughter.
"Ow. Don't make me laugh so hard."
She finished setting up the pieces, sitting back with satisfaction when the game was ready.
"Letting me go first, huh?"
"I believe it would be unfair not to. I am undoubtedly the more skilled player."
"We'll see, Madam Mayor."
An hour later, Regina was glaring at Emma, who was grinning widely at her.
"The more skilled player, huh? Seems to me I won most of those matches."
"I should have worked harder to drive you from my town."
Emma laughed.
"Wanna play again?
"Shut up."
"Ah, ah, Madam Mayor. That is not a nice thing to say."
"I cannot believe I lost to someone of inferior intellect. It appears I am in desperate need of practice."
"Now you're just being mean because you're sad you lost. I think I need sushi to heal my wounded feelings."
Regina glanced at the clock. She was nowhere near hungry, but she was not going to tell the other woman not to eat. If Emma was hungry, she would feed her, despite her irritation at having lost

INTRODUCTION
Bernard Mandeville's first extant book in English, _Some Fables after
the Easie and Familiar Method of Monsieur de la Fontaine_, was published
in 1703; it reappeared with additional fables in 1704 as _Aesop
Dress'd_.[1] Neither title reveals that, except for two original fables
by Mandeville, the book consists entirely of verse translations from the
twelve books of La Fontaine's _Fables_ (1668-1694). It is the first
book-length translation from these poems into English.
The only previous translations from _Fables_ into English verse appear
to have been those made ten years earlier by John Dennis. _Miscellanies
in Verse and Prose_ (1693) was a curious volume of Pindaric odes,
imitations of Horace, Juvenal, and Boileau, and letters that the young
Dennis had written during his travels in France and Italy, including the
well-known account of the "delightful horrour" and "terrible Joy" that
he had experienced while crossing the Alps; there were, finally, ten
fables in octosyllabic couplets--all of them translations from La
Fontaine. A word about Dennis's fables may help to put Mandeville's into
perspective.
Their resemblance to the French originals is slight. Not La Fontaine,
but Samuel Butler, presides over Dennis's fables; indeed, when Dennis
discusses them in the Preface to _Miscellanies_, he fails to mention La
Fontaine, although he devotes a large proportion of his remarks to a
defense of Butler's burlesque verse, which he acknowledges as his
model.[2] Many people were writing Hudibrastics in the 1680's and
1690's: the propensity of Butler's couplet for arousing laughter had
made it a fad.[3] With its jog-trot meter, insinuating swiftness, and
jarring double and triple rhymes, the Hudibrastic couplet was ideally
suited to the mockery performed by low burlesque. All burlesque works by
an incongruity between subject and style; the particular function of low
burlesque is to debase an elevated subject by treating it in an
undignified manner.[4] So it was that Butler, with the assistance of a
crazy style, had exploited the gap between the high pretensions and the
ridiculous performances of a Puritan knight and his squire.
But of the hordes of scribblers that followed in the wake of _Hudibras_,
scarcely any possessed Butler's

Q:
Recommend a c library calculating the product of two sparse matrix(size: 100000*100000)
The matrix is so large(size: 100000*100000) which consume two much, so the library should use triplet or other way to store it. I search the Internet, but those library always use common matrix not triplet or other way to compress the storage.
It didn't work for me. Can someone recommend some c library for me?
Thank you for your help.

Q:
How to locate the href element using selenium python
How to locate the href elements using selenium and python
i tried below code but its not working
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[@href]")
A:
To locate href attribute usually you can use
//a/@href
but selenium doesn't support this syntax as in selenium you can locate webelements only.
You can try below:
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a").get_attribute('href')
With this line of code you should be able to get href attribute of the first anchor element on the page.
Q:
Select query and unknow predicate value
I have this table with this columns: Key,Type,Culture.
Key and Culture are PK.
I know the Key and Culture values before query execution.
select * from resources r where r.CULTURE = 'sk' and r.KEY = 'test';
But I'd like to perform a select which would select also all other records with the same Type as the record with Culture = 'sk' and Key = 'test'
A:
SELECT * FROM resources AS r WHERE r.type =
(SELECT type FROM resources s where s.culture= 'sk' and s.key= 'test')
culture and key are PK, so you only get one value back for type for your subquery. That result is used to get all rows with that type. If the subquery would return multiple values, you can use IN instead of =.
Q:
Adding twitter into PHP form in CMS
Hello I have all sorts of tutorials for authenticating with oAuth, but it seems like everyone else has one piece of the puzzle that I don't.
In my CMS I am editing the controller, where info gets processed on the submit button. $_POST contains this data and is simply evaluated for content
if(!empty($_POST))
{
$mingurl = 'http://www.myurl.com';
$mingmsg = "New tweet! Link: " . $mingurl;
//Connect to Twitter
$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET);
$connection->getAuthorizeURL(OAUTH_TOKEN, true);
// Posten
$connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => $mingmsg));
// Error afhandeling
$httpc = $connection->http_code;
if($httpc == 200) {
echo 'Tweet posted!';
} else {
echo "Failed!";
}
}
Now it seems that nothing happened, especially given that the twitter account is not updated. I notice that nowhere here do I call other twitteroauth functions, such as the one that should initially login and allow the twitter application to edit things, but NO tutorial details how this should work. What functions should I call, I am using Abraham Williams twitter oauth php object.
Also I'm not sure if I need to edit the model or view just to add these behind the scenes updating, but I wonder about the popup to add your twitter credentials the first time,

you are trying to do. We all lose if you keep this up.
People support police reform. Let's talk about it in those terms. Let's talk about changing the policing culture, and talk about what policing is. This makes sense, and a majority of people can get behind this idea.
Republicans are masters of manipulating the message, and terminology is part of their tactic. Do you remember the absurd "death panels" lie that Republicans used to scare people away from the ACA ? Well, the "abolish the police" people are doing the messaging for them this time. Please stop. You are not helping in any way, shape or form.
@Gary McKechnie The most powerful, immediate, necessary, solution to King Donald is the 25th Amendment.
As JD pointed out, that is the reason all the Cabinet are 'acting'. Any rumblings of doing what needs to be done (removal of the unstable genius) and you are out the door.
But, the bottom line problem with the 25th Amendment is that it requires a strong VP; not one who daily witnesses impeachable acts, then goes home to mother and wrings his hands.
It doesn't require X-Ray vision,any Hoosier with eyes could have told you that Pence doesn't have a spine.
Our strongest constitutional weapon against the conman is in the hands of an utter weakling. He's an embarrassment.
Go back in time and you will read about propaganda radio broadcasts from characters like Lord Haw Haw and Tokyo Rose.
America now has Fox, OAN, Limbaugh and many other similar subversive broadcasters undermining our democracy. Q Anon is yet another modern example.
Propaganda is very effective to influence weak minded, gullible and insecure people. These propaganda outfits walk a thin line between free speech and treason in my view.
You can always have your own opinion - but facts are facts. Unfortunately in America, guaranteed free speech prevents a strong anti libel law from holding propaganda in check.
@James It's not the fact that it's medical students doing the exams that people are upset by. It's the fact that while unconscious, other human beings are vaginally penetrating them. No-one's saying to get rid of medical training. Plenty of women would consent to vaginal exams by medical students. We're just saying stop raping us while we're unconscious.
Hope these terrific arguments are articulated clearly tonight and every day until election! Democratic Leaders, please express these arguments repeatedly every day, through all possible venues! Repeat these arguments concisely and clearly, without metaphors, so that everyone internalizes them. Three Republican economic failures in a row for 3 decades are a dark pattern that needs to be broken!
@Kai I wonder about our issues with China. If corporations weren't sending their business to China, they could protect their intellectual property here in the United States. Why are our tax dollars going to protect billionaire companies who might profit less overall but would pay fair wages to Americans to do the work here in the U.S.?

server into the not so good grid, sort of belt
and braces.
In the unlikely event that the Matter Hospitals power does go down I
would like
the server to send an email to my sms gateway and alert me to the fact.
The UPS
has a serial port on it that I imagine would send some info to the
server to let it
know that its running on battery's and it should shut its self down,
sending the all
important email before it does and also letting the other server on the
UPS know
about the power failure and have it shut down also, this could be done
over SSH
one would think.
So to cut this short where do I start?
Any and all suggestions welcome.

In case anyone is interested, I've gotten Chad Austin's Glob() function to
work in 0.96.90.
I don't really understand how it works, but as he supplied it, it produced a
list of files matching the supplied pattern, but with absolute paths. This
does not work properly if you are using BuildDir(). When using
Glob('*.cpp'), all of the .obj files are not put into the build_dir, but
rather are placed into the source directory as if BuildDir() had not been
called.
So I added the last bit of the function which builds and returns instead a
list of the basenames of the files it has found. It works just fine (but
I'm betting it's not optimized).
I can post this working version of Glob(), but if anyone who understands its
internals would like to review it first, to make sure it's not being
stupidly inefficient, that would be great.
Thanks,
David Van Maren
Hello;
the parser code is progressing steadily - if not lightning fast - in the right direction. The current status is:
1. We have a bug with string keywords with emebedded spaces.
2. We are adding keywords to the list: https://github.com/OPM/opm-parser/tree/master/opm/parser/share/keywords - we are aiming at all the keywords in the Norne case, current status is <~ 50% complete.
When these two items are completed we aim to start integration with opm-core, for that process we would very much like to hear opinions from the rest of the OPM community. The current plan is roughly:
1. Create a thin - but growing layer ~ EclipseState which understands(?) ECLIPSE idiosyncrasies and combines information from the deck accordingly.
2. Write opm test applications to parse using both existing parser technology and the new parser.
3. Replace with new Deck / EclipseState functionality on a feature for feature basis - see below.
When it comes to grouping of Eclipse features we have identified the following:
Tables : The keywords like PVTG and SWOG and ... contain the data for one or several tables in a quite arcane format. We suggest to implement a class EclTable which can be populated from the Deck.
Grid and properties: Creating the ECLIPSE grid from COORDS / ZCORN / ACTNUM and loading the various property keywords like PORO and PERMX. This topic will require supporting the various

A:
You can use a type query to achieve this:
genericMethod<T extends IMessage>(payload: T['payload']) { }
someobject.genericMethod<IConcreteMessage>(78) // will be an error
You can' get a string at runtime from a literal string type, you will need to pass a string value as a parameter.
Q:
What happens if I don't pay a utility bill on a house I've already sold?
I recently sold a property I used to own, and was told that the new owner had transferred all the utilities. I followed up on all but one (which were transferred), however it seems that the water utility was not, and I received a bill for a period starting after the closing date of the house.
I don't want to pay the bill, since I didn't own the house at the time or use any of the service, however I'm not sure what the consequences of doing so would be. I don't really care if they shut off the water or put a lien against the property (I think? It seems like it would be easy enough for the new owner to take care of) but I wouldn't want to have my credit dinged because I'm trying to close on the purchase of another property right now.
What type of negative repercussions could there be for me personally if I don't pay the balance?
A:
First, as a realtor, part of what I'm supposed to do to ensure a smooth closing is the make sure the utilities are taken care of. This means that gas, electricity, and water companies have all been notified and produced a final bill which needs to be paid prior to, or at the closing. It may seem minor, but I've seen money held back at closing if the final bill is produced and shown as paid.
This is much further along. You have a bill, if it's yours, you need to pay it. If it isn't, you need to convince the Water Dept that you are in the right. Make an appointment, and show them the closing date. If your being billed for water after that, they should help you adjust it. Keep in mind, from where they sit, you were the account holder, and if you never asked for that final bill, they are expecting that you continue to be responsible.
A:
To me, there are 2 separate issues to be addressed here:
Q1. Are you legally responsible for the bill?
The short answer here seems to be yes. While it may be as simple as sending a polite letter to the new property owners, asking them to pay the bill and letting them know that the service needs to be transferred into their name now, that is probably all that can be done. Legally, I don't believe the utility company can simply change the name of the person that owes the debt; even if you prove the house changed hands.
Think about it from their point of view: how can you tell someone (else) they're legally responsible for a

a year ago in my Canadian G1 test, " where are the hands placed on the wheel in the proper driving position?" Was actually a question on my test. And in drivers ed we spent almost an hour on the importance of 10 and 2. 8 and 4 may be more comfortable, but you have much more control with 10 and 2. They definetly still push that position here, I think it's actually a reduction or your grade on the road test if you use a different style.

Hi all,
Has anyone spent any time precompiling KO templates? I know of one
server-side library for .NET [1] that supports precompling the jquery.tmpl
based templates, but I don't think it supports the native KO templates.
I'm just interested in seeing if people are doing this and what kind of
performance benefits it brings.

for discussion of modes.
Defaults to "bridge".
- **mtu** (integer): the size of the MTU in bytes for the macvlan interface.
Defaults to MTU of the master device.
- **ipMasq** (boolean): whether to set up IP masquerading on the host.
Defaults to false.
#### ipvlan
ipvlan behaves very similar to macvlan but does not provide distinct MAC addresses for pods.
macvlan and ipvlan can't be used on the same master device together.
ipvlan creates virtual copies of interfaces like macvlan but does not assign a new MAC address to the copied interface.
This does not allow the pods to be distinguished on a MAC level and so cannot be used with DHCP servers.
In other scenarios this can be an advantage, e.g. when an external network port does not allow multiple MAC addresses.
ipvlan also solves the problem of MAC address exhaustion that can occur with a large number of pods copying the same master interface.
ipvlan interfaces are able to have different IP addresses than the master interface and will therefore have the needed distinction for most use-cases.
`ipvlan` specific configuration fields are:
- **master** (string): the name of the host interface to copy.
This field is required.
- **mode** (string): one of "l2", "l3".
See [kernel documentation on ipvlan][ipvlan].
Defaults to "l2".
- **mtu** (integer): the size of the MTU in bytes for the ipvlan interface.
Defaults to MTU of the master device.
- **ipMasq** (boolean): whether to set up IP masquerading on the host.
Defaults to false.
**Notes**
* ipvlan can cause problems with duplicated IPv6 link-local addresses since they are partially constructed using the MAC address.
This issue is being currently addressed by the ipvlan kernel module developers.
## IP Address Management
The policy for IP address allocation, associated gateway and routes is separately configurable via the `ipam` section of the configuration file.
rkt currently ships with two IPAM types: host-local and DHCP.
Like the network types, IPAM types can be implemented by third-parties via plugins.
### host-local
host-local type allocates IPs out of specified network range, much like a DHCP server would.
The difference is that while DHCP uses a central server, this type uses a static configuration.
Consider the following conf:
```json
$ cat /etc/rkt/net.d/10-containers.conf
{
"name": "containers",
"type": "bridge",
"bridge": "rkt1",
"ipam": {
"type": "host-local",
"subnet": "10.1.0.0/16"
}
}
```
This configuration instructs rkt to create `rkt1` Linux bridge and plugs pods into it via veths.
Since the subnet is defined as `10.1.0.0/16`, rkt will assign individual IPs out of that range.
The first pod will be assigned 10.1.0.2/16, next one 10.1.0.3/16, etc (it reserves 10.1.0.1/16 for gateway).
Additional configuration fields:
- **subnet** (string): subnet in CIDR notation for the network.
- **rangeStart** (string): first IP address from which to start allocating IPs.
Defaults to second IP in `subnet` range.
- **rangeEnd** (string): last IP address in the allocatable range.
Defaults to last IP in `subnet` range.
- **gateway** (string): the IP address of the gateway in this subnet.
- **routes** (list of strings): list of IP routes in CIDR notation.
The routes get added

We do have big lags between pick confirm and the actual shipment of the order due to procedural issues - the problem areas have been identified but no movement in shipping department to rectify the issues. So now the system must be modified to accommodate the procedural issues instead of fixing the personnel issues. Go figure. Thanks DeeDee.

Hi,
why do we have cd-etch-dvd and cd-etch-test-dvd and not simply dvd-etch and
dvd-etch-test. And we do have cd-etch and cd-etch-test.
Then, it should probably be (cd|dvd)-etch(-test)-i386 :)
Also I wonder why we have debian-edu-i386-NETINST-1.iso but

Hi-
A few quick questions for the gang...
1-Does anyone know if there's a way to select a different button in a
dialog box to be the one that "return" presses?
For instance when splitting objects you're asked what you want done to
over-lapping notes. "Keep" is selected so "return" presses it but if
you want "shorten" you need to press it with the pointer unless...
2- Recently Bounces don't remember the last place a file was bounced
to. It defaults to the audio record path but if you make a new folder
for bounced files you have to keep selecting each time. Is that a
preference, setting, or bug?
3-Is there a way to navigate in the loop browser with key commands? I'm
always losing my place.
Thanks, D

went unnoticed by Odo, who was too busy mentally complaining about the beach.
The sand felt weird, the surf was too loud, the wind from the waves was annoying on his face and children were running wildly _everywhere._ This place needed a _LOT_ more security, something Odo was actually happy to provide.
As Quark busied himself setting up his towel and umbrella, and bag of excess clothing and snacks, Odo snuck off into the area of the beach he deemed the worse off, shifted into an umbrella; the most plentiful item on the beach, and waited.
A child ran past him.
“No running on the sand.” Came a voiced that seemed be coming from, of all things, a beach umbrella.
The child stopped, fear in their eyes.
“That’s better now move along.” Odo said.
They stayed frozen for a moment and then turned and ran tears in their eyes calling to their mother about the scary talking umbrella.
“Hey! No-.”
But the child was gone.
Odo didn’t have much more luck than that.
He’d yell at a child and they stare at him in fear, and then run away. Soon they all avoided the area. Well at least he had peace. And it was… kind of nice. No reports to fill out, not rounds to walk, no one to yell at. Odo found himself zoning out and not paying attention to anything in particular. For once, he was not on duty…
“ODO!!!”
He was thrown out of his reverie by Quark shouting his name.
“ODO WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!?!”
Surprised, he subconsciously shifted into his innate gelatinous form, and then back to himself.
Quark was facing towards the beach, with his back to him and turned at the slight sound made when Odo changed shapes.
“Odo, there you are I was worried about you!”
“Hmpph… I am perfectly alright Quark, I can take care of myself.”
“Still, you’ve never been here before you don’t know all the ins and outs of this planet. But…. That’s besides the fact.” Quark shook his head and motioned toward the living quarters. “It’s time to go inside I’ve got quite the suite reserved. And I got it at a discount!”
Odo nodded. “Ah yes, I suppose that may be a good idea. I need to regenerate myself soon.”
“Well at least stay… well, yourself for dinner, I got an amazing deal on some great-“
“I don’t _eat_ Quark.”
Quark frowned, and was that a look of… disappointment on his face?
“Ah, yes well let’s get back so you can _regenerate_.”
They arrived at their living quarter for the week, luggage already there and set up. Most of it was Quarks, but the large copper colored bucket belonged to Odo.
He grabbed it as soon as he entered the room, bringing it back into a quiet, private area and shifted to goo, moving himself into it. He had completely ignored the table, candlelit and set beautifully for two, as well as Quark’s saddened face, as he sat down to his meal alone.

Q:
How to apply the same lens on two different records? (or, record field-names as first-class values?)
Consider the following records and their lenses:
data Bar = Bar {barField1 :: Int, barField2 :: String}
makeLensesWith abbreviatedFields ''Bar
data BarError = BarError {barerrField1 :: [String], barerrField2 :: [String]}
makeLensesWith abbreviatedFields ''BarError
Now, both of them have access to the lenses field1 & field2 by virtue of implementing the HasField1 and HasField2 type-classes. However, I am unable to get the following piece of code to compile:
-- Most-general type-signature inferred by the compiler, if I remove the
-- KindSignatures from `record` & `errRecord` below:
--
-- validateLength :: (IsString a) => (Int, Int) -> ALens t t [a] [a] -> t -> t -> t
--
validateLength (mn, mx) l (record :: Bar) (errRecord :: BarErr) =
let len = length (record ^# l)
in if ((len<mn) || (len>mx))
then errRecord & l #%~ (\x -> ("incorrect length"):x)
else errRecord
-- Usage scenario:
--
-- let x = Bar 10 "hello there"
-- xErr = BarError [] []
-- in validateLength (3, 10) field2 x xErr
Error message:
/Users/saurabhnanda/projects/vl-haskell/src/TryLens.hs:18:20: error:
• Couldn't match type ‘BarError’ with ‘Bar’
Expected type: BarError -> BarError
Actual type: Bar -> BarError
• In the second argument of ‘(&)’, namely
‘l #%~ (\ x -> ("incorrect length") : x)’
In the expression:
errRecord & l #%~ (\ x -> ("incorrect length") : x)
In the expression:
if ((len < mn) || (len > mx)) then
errRecord & l #%~ (\ x -> ("incorrect length") : x)
else
errRecord
Note: Instead of using ^. and %~ I'm using ^# and #%~ because I'd like to treat the lens (l) as a getter & setter simultaneously.
Edit: A simpler snippet to demonstrate the problem is:
-- intended type signature:
-- funkyLensAccess :: l -> r1 -> r2 -> (t1, t2)
--
-- type signature inferred by the compiler
-- funkyLensAccess :: Getting t s t -> s -> s -> (t, t)
--
funkyLensAccess l rec1 rec2 = (rec1 ^. l, rec2 ^. l)
A:
So essentially your problem has nothing to do with lenses, but with (accessor-) functions that can operate on different types, for each giving a different-typed result.
That immediately means trouble: if the accessed-field type is supposed to depend on the containing-struct type, this is a dependent type. Haskell is not a dependently-typed language. It's the kind of task you can easily do in e.g. Python by calling a field by name (in form of a string) and then operating on the field via duck typing, but

spontaneous decay during typical pulse durations is suppressed by the large frequency offsets of both laser beams from one-photon resonances. Thereby only the two-photon excitation is included and thus the width of resonant-momentum group is not limited by the upper-state natural linewidth, making a deep subrecoil cooling feasible. For denser samples one needs to be concerned about collisional effects [2,30,31] and photoassociation resonances [3], but these can be avoided e.g. by detuning the laser fields to the blue side of the transition [32,33] as shown in Fig. 1.
The number of lasers included into each laser beam as well as time-dependent changes in beam properties are not specified here. We are only interested in their contribution to the transfer momentum profile which is described by the function f (p). Independently whether a laser beam is provided by several lasers or not, let us assign it an overall wave vector: k 1 for the laser beam near-resonant with the |1 ↔ |2 transition, and k 2 for the one near-resonant with the |2 ↔ |3 transition. In ganeral, Raman cooling uses one laser beam configuration to cool atoms with p < 0, and another one to cool atoms with p > 0. The first configuration is defined by Fig. 1), and the second one by k 1 = −k 1 e z , k 2 = k 2 e z . Depending on the configuration, atoms transferred to the |3 state gain a momentum shift of ± (k 1 + k 2 ), so that, in accordance with Eq. (1), the momentum distribution in state |3 is given by
k 1 = k 1 e z , k 2 = −k 2 e z (shown in|a 3 (p)| 2 = f (p ∓ (k 1 + k 2 ))|a(p ∓ (k 1 + k 2 ))| 2 . (3)
Here, signs "−" and "+" correspond to the first and second laser beam configuration, respectively.
III. THE SECOND STEP OF COOLING CYCLE
The second step of a cooling cycle returns atoms into the |1 state by optical pumping. This is done by switching the pump laser in Fig. 1 off and tuning the Stokes laser into resonance with the |2 ↔ |3 transition. As an atom is excited from |3 to the upper state, its momentum p is shifted by k 2 , becoming p ∓ k 2 , with the sign of change depending on the laser beam configuration. Then the atom decays into the |1 state and a spontaneously emitted photon carries away a momentum kick of k 1 u, modifying the atomic momentum as
p = p ∓ k 2 − k 1 u, where u is a random value within range [−1, 1].
Consequently, the atomic population in state |1 after
k 1 k 2 |1 |3 |2 FIG. 1.
A pump laser beam of wave vector k1 couples transition |1 ↔ |2 of a three-level Λ-type atom, while a Stokes laser beam of k2 couples the |2 ↔ |3 transition. A population transfer from the |1 to |3 ground

were too busy demonizing Democrats to care. If Trump had been removed back in February, we’d have had a better response to the virus than we have now, even if Pence had been president. But as it is, the buck stops with Trump, no ifs or ands or buts. If Bill Clinton could do his job while under impeachment, so should Trump, but Trump would not have had an adequate response to the virus with or without impeachment.
You Republican apologists are like a broken record.
The President abused his office AND committed a crime in so doing. The sycophantic Justice Department refuses to indict a sitting President, Mueller was hamstrung and ultimately useless, so the ONLY remedy available to check this scurrilous creature is impeach,ent and removal.
Yet due to effective obstruction by the White House, first hand fact witnesses aren’t being heard.
Heads up: obstruction of Congress is also an impeachable offense, witness Article 2.
But McConnell can’t be bothered.
@Alyssa Reddy I wholeheartedly agree with you because it does not matter how the proposal takes place,, it matters who is by your side while it takes places to make it memorable. Society made the "ring" a big deal while proposing. I believe it is not needed because if you find your other half and they are by your side, everything just disappears.
"owes a lot to the inherent problems of medical bureaucracy and the regulatory state,"
This is nonsense. Up here in Toronto our socialized medical bureaucracy and regulatory state were more than capable of making free testing and treatment available as of Friday at a local hospital. It is merely a question of basic competency from political leadership.
Kamala Harris has a difficult balancing of being tough, genuine and like-able all at the same time. She should just treat the process with integrity on its merit and shouldn't jeopardize the Biden-Harris campaign with needless partisan bickering and give Republicans a target to unite against. The only option that the democrats have is to drag this process out beyond election day and hope something changes.
This is all about the economy vs. public health. Europe does not want to cause a problem with the Chinese due to economic considerations. By the way, lest we act superior, listen to what our president is trying to sell. The difference is we have a free press that tells us the truth. Thank God!
Is Trump an anomaly or does he represent who we are as a people? I can't count the times I've read or heard "this is not who we are" or "we are better than this". Well, maybe it is who we are, and maybe we aren't better than Trump. This election will tell us more about ourselves than any before it. In the end, we will get the government we deserve.

running when I run it with Cron and so Svn doesn't receive a password. Strange because a few lines earlier, I use sshpass with Rsync to send file to SouceForge and that works when the script is run through Cron. One solution I've often seen is related to the Path environment variable in Cron being limited. I fixed this in my case with this line near the top of my script but it doesn't help in my case: PATH=$PATH:$(grep 'PATH=' /etc/environment | sed 's/^.*=// ; s/\"//g')
This is what I have in my Crontab:
0 14 * * * /bin/bash /home/svn/xjdhdr-random-code/Bash/auto_update_svn.bash
And this is the contents of my script:
#!/bin/bash
PATH=$PATH:$(sed -n '/PATH=/s/^.*=// ; s/\"//gp' '/etc/environment')
sDateTime=$(date -u +"%d %b %Y %H:%M")
{
# Commit changes

done

} 2> '/tmp/stderr-contents-auto_update_svn.txt'

then

then

A:
I managed to find the cause of my problem and solution.
First, the cause. SSHPass requires that the program run through it must prompt for a password, which it will then supply to the prompting program. Svn commit, in turn, will prompt for a password if one hasn't been supplied through a command line switch and is running in an interactive environment. This is why I was observing what I observed; when running the script manually, svn was running in an interactive environment. Conversely, when svn is run through Cron, it detects that the environment is not interactive. Hence, it does not prompt for a password and SSHPass can't do anything.
The solution in this case is to add the switch --force-interactive to svn's command. Thus, the relevant line in my script now says:
sshpass -v -f "$HOME/github_password.txt" svn commit --username=XJDHDR --no-auth-cache --force-interactive \
-m 'Automatic update of Adblock, Bash + blocklist files' '/home/svn/xjdhdr-random-code'
Another possible solution would be to add the --password switch to the svn command with the password in question and avoid using SSHPass entirely. In my case, this wouldn't work because that would require adding the password in plain text to the script. This causes two problems for me. First, the script is accessible by every user account on the server I have this script running whereas the password file used by SSHPass is only readable by the user account that is used to execute the script. Second, this script is one of the files that is uploaded to my SourceForge and GitHub repositories.

My Favorite book in the series. Very climactic and exciting. RECOMMEND FOR ALL OF THE FORBIDDEN ROMANCE/VAMPIRE ROMANCE GENRE LOVERS!
I ordered the whole set:1,2,3.
Everything was fine. I got them as soon as they were released. BUT! The CD labeled 1, was really 2! Somebody had mis-labeled it.. . .
So, I reported it and sent it back and got a very quick "sorry" note and in one day it was replaced. Amazon is good that way.
HOWEVER, THE NEW 1, WAS THE SAME AS THE 'old" 1. -Mislabeled; it was really 2 yet again. So I sent it back with a note.
Now I get "we will reimburse you for the album. not to worry!" Amazon is good at that too.
but, I DON'T WANTMY MONEY BACK, I WANT MY ALBUM #1 so that can have the whole set.
The other two were as expected: great vintage Kenton.
I don't know if I will ever receive album 1.
I was pleased with my new Skechers which arrived before the date that was agreed. They are better than the ones I bought in Florida
This has got to be the nicest calendar I have ever had! The quality and texture of the pages (they are coated with a plastic of some sort) is insurmountable! I love the artwork, the colors, and everything about it!!
At the age of 50, I am finally learning to eat my veggies. Kyndra Holley's recipes have been enormously helpful! The first time I ever tried a low carb diet, I gave up after a few short months. It was just too difficult to live without potatoes and pasta. Back then I wouldn't eat any veggies that weren't sometimes classified as fruit, unless they were full of starch. This time I'm learning that some vegetables are actually more than just a 'pretty plate'. I'm actually enjoying foods I never thought I'd even be able to stand! To discover that cauliflower, for example, is not only versatile, but EDIBLE has been a game changer for me. I honestly think I can live a moderately low carb (though not necessarily primal for me) way of life and be happy with it. And on those days when I indulge myself with a chocolate covered donut or the occasional ice cream cone, I don't beat myself up.

enough miles (I think BA is like this), so you wouldn't be able to easily check pre-transfer, and we want to know before we transfer! For these ones, a quick call to the frequent flyer program is going to be in order...
We should now have a shortlist of two or three airlines, so next we need to price up the FF miles and cash fees involved. Finding the FF miles should be fairly easy, most programs have a bit of their FF website that lets you calculate the miles needed. Be aware of the rules around direct vs changing for flights, as it may or may not affect the FF miles needed.
Most airlines also charge some sort of cash fees on redemption tickets, covering airport taxes, fuel surcharges etc. Depending on the airline and the class of ticket, these can be fairly substantial (as an example, BA are noted for having very high fees on economy short haul redemption tickets). As you want a premium cabin, double check the fees as they're often quoted by default for economy, but higher for business/first. Check if you can use miles to pay for these fees or not (some US programs may let you, most European ones won't).
You should now have a list of costs (in FF miles and hard cash) for each program. Now, go to the Amex website, and check how many reward points you need to change to get those FF miles. Factor in any bonuses in operation, and ring the lovely people at Amex to double check on figures if you're not sure (the UK team are lovely, hopefully the American ones are too!). Finally, weigh up the points vs cash figures, decide which is best, transfer and book!
As a slight aside, since you want to go to Paris, you can also turn Amex points into Eurostar tickets. Depending on the length of your journey, it might be worth investigating the costs (cash+points) for a flight to London plus Eurostar on to Paris, and splitting your trip to include a few days in London. Also, some airline programs (such as BA) allow free stopovers on reward tickets, so you could potentially look into taking a connecting flight, and stopping few days in wherever in Europe you need to change. Could make for a more fun trip, but will also make finding the best option for you much harder...
Q:
How to prove that a non-linear differential equation has a solution
I want to prove that there exists $f:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ such that $f(0)=0$,
$$
\frac{d w(y-f(y))}{d y} = g(y) \frac{d v(f(y))}{d y}, \forall y \in [0,1],
$$
where $w:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ and $v:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ are continuous strictly increasing functions with $w(0)=v(0)=0$ and $v(1)=w(1)=1$, and $g:[0,1] \to (0,\infty)$ is a continuous function.
If it simplifies the problem, I am particularly interested in the case where
$$
w(x)=\frac{x^a}{[x^a+(1-x)^a]^{1/a}},
v(x)=\frac{x^b}{[x^b+(1-x)^b]^{1/b}},
$$
for some $a,b \in (0,1]$.
For example, if $a=b=1$, then $v(x)=w(x)=x$, and the solution is $f(y) = \int_0^y \frac{1}{1+g(x)} dx$.

understand why he couldn't sleep. He was tired as fuck, it was a relatively tranquil night, and the temperature was just right. The sheets felt cool against his skin, comforting him despite his current irritable mood. "Damn it," he muttered, slowly sitting upright as he planted his feet on the floor. He hated doing this, it embarassed the hell out of him.
But what has to be done, has to be done.
Yuuri softly opened his bedroom door, tiptoeing meekly towards Viktor's room surreptitiously. He slid open Viktor's tatami door, biting his lip as he stepped inside. He stealthily walked past Viktor sprawled naked out on his futon, breathing softly. He carefully made his way to his closet, taking a deep breath before he slowly opened it, flinching at every creak it made.
After getting it open, he gently flitted his hands around the closet, his eyes searching for something. Yuuri stopped dead in his tracks as he spotted a quick silver glint, finding Viktor's trademark red Sochi 2014 jacket neatly tucked in between his shirts. Yuuri smiled in relief as he grabbed it, hesitating as his eyes landed on Viktor's other stack of clothes, biting his lip indecisively. "Fuck it, might as well," he sighed, swiftly grabbing three whole fucking piles of clothes as he gently closed the closet door cautiously as he did before. Softly waltzing out of the room, Yuuri closed Viktor's door before whispering: "Thank you," to the sleeping Russian.
He huffed back to his room, setting his bounty on his bed. Pink quickly crept upon his cheeks, thinking again on how fucking embarassing his actions were. Sneaking into Viktor's room during the dead of the night to ransack his closet was strangely, now a norm for Yuuri, it being an emergency solution to his insomnia. He switched his phone open, setting an alarm for 4:30am.
He always woke up at the crack of dawn, just before Viktor woke up, neatly folding the russian's clothes as he stuffed it back in his closet in a frenzy, as though no one had touched it through the night. Yuuri flopped onto his bed, hugging Viktor's jacket as he spread his other pile of clothes around his bed. He felt his body relax and loosen up, bathing in the soothing aroma of Viktor. Yuuri took a deep breath as he nestled into Viktor's jacket which was wrapped around his arms, sighing in euphoria at the calming scent. Viktor's smell was like a drug to him, he couldn't get enough. His smell was a mix of his shampoo, blueberries, a tinge of alcohol and something that was just Viktor as a whole. Yuuri breathed in ecstasy as the delightful scent that he loved so much slowly carried him off to sleep.
7:00am

Just the right blend of action and romance. None of the I-want-you-but-I-can't-let-you-know kind of stuff that is often so frustrating. I love the powers the characters have and the surprises revealed. I am thrilled to read about a heroine who embraces her gender and is so strong though she still allows herself to cry and acknowledge her emotional side. This book is empowering for women....emotions are not a weakness.
This was a nice easy read. Not a complicated story line. Nice story about a young doctor who goes to work for an older doctor in the Irish country.
Further adventures of Merlin's Irregulars, a group of time-travelling teenage magelings, some from 1940 and some from 1804. While I found the Napoleonic invasion of Wales interesting, this one didn't pull me as strongly as book two. Things that went wrong, either plot-wise or character conflict-wise, were resolved too easily.
Well written, but this book really is for baseball fans only. Yes, there's more to the story than baseball, but there's also a lot of play-by-play game scenes that are pretty boring if (like me) you're not much of a fan. Additionally, I felt that the main character's way of handling grief was fairly realistic but also a little cliche. For kids who haven't read a story like this many times over as most adults will have, it may feel fresher.
The writing style is so different from Kushiel! I guess I was expecting an epic when I started Dark Currents. Carey has definitely read up the popular PNR/UF series, the vibe is very similar to others on the market (especially the vague insinuations of a love triangle). I liked Daisy, but I wasn't attached to her. I couldn't stop thinking about the logistics of having a fully human body with a small tail, though.
The amount of supernatural/mundane interaction definitely kept me interested as the character development dragged a little. It's the main reason I read UF (that and because I'm still holding out hope for my Hogwarts letter. I'm 27.)

that, and at times the friendship between the women was quite vivid, but being a dork who doesn't date with bad hair just isn't equivalent with what the black women experienced, and I say that as a dork who doesn't date with bad hair. Enjoyable...you get a good feeling afterward. Just not really the sort of thing I'd read again.
This was my first time ever reading a graphic novel and I loved it! I finished it in a couple of hours. It has definitely inspired me to read the graphic novels for other books.
I love Jefferson's America by Julie M. Fenster. I feel like she has given a fresh, new look to the portion of history that involves the explorations of the west. It begins while he is in office as Secretary of State and continues through the expansions that America went through during his time. There was background given to the areas before we began exploring plus of those that would go on their explorations. Fenster used journals as a launching point for her book and I was impressed with the detail that she was able to hone from each of these.
I am a history buff and I appreciate the work that it takes to produce a complete work and keep it objective. Julie Fenster was able to do just that.
There is one issue that I had with my copy, but this did not have to do with the writing, but the printing. Beginning in the second chapter, there were ink blots found throughout the book. This did make it harder to stay with the reading, but I am so glad that I did.
I was given this book by blogging for books in exchange for my honest review, however, this is a book that I would have picked up at a bookstore and enjoyed.
What a magical and Fascinating experience I had while reading it. Will be looking forward to more writing from this writer.

so happy they're together but hey... there's another book and shit will hit the fan now.
Finished too quickly. Felt like half a book.
This was a fun colorful book about just doing your thing and trying, even if you think you can't or if others tell you you can't - even if you start in private. Being happy and doing your thing will draw others to you.
That ending was perfect, perfect, perfect!
When I first heard of this book, I thought it was some king of a retelling of Alice in Wonderland with zombies, so maybe that's why I waited some time before reading it. And all I can think of now is: why the heck did I wait so long to read it? What is wrong with me?!
This book was sooo good! I haven't read a lot of zombies stories and

Recommended if you've enjoyed other Dennett books or just want to improve your critical thinking skills with regard to specific philosophical topics like consciousness, AI, free will, and moral responsibility.
Scary, revolting, riveting. Excellent writing! An 11-year-old girl falls under the sway of her disturbed 23-year-old cousin. He is a seminary student with bizarre tastes, and their grandmother's darling.
I very much enjoyed this book. The plot is too convoluted and bizarre to begin to describe but the writing and gallows humor was incredibly well done.
Nice ending to the series & definitely had a much lighter tone than the previous two books. This was definitely a good thing because these two deserved happiness & peace. My only issue was the book seemed really short, but glad it was all wrapped up especially with Kayden. Great series!
This book is the ultimate comfort read for me. A heart-warming, emotionally gratifying & rewarding experience. The one where, after finishing, you just sit & stare out of your head happy & content that again the world has been put to rights.
"Circle of Friends" is to me what "The Baronetage" is to Sir Walter Elliot in Persuasion. :)
"...there he found occupation for an idle hour, and consolation in a distressed one; there his faculties were aroused into admiration and respect, ... there any unwelcome sensations ... changed into pity and contempt."
This book is about friendship, love, betrayal, growing up, learning to fight for what is important & learning to let go.
The story takes us to 1957 when Benny (Mary Bernadette) Hogan & Eve Malone are to leave (or are they?) the safe, but limited boundaries of their small Irish hometown of Knockglen -where everyone knows everyone- for the "big, dangerous" city of Dublin.
Benny, an awkward (because she is big and tall), but infinitely kind and funny girl is an only daughter to well-meaning, but elderly parents, who don't seem to realise that she is growing up into a woman. Although they are willing to pay for a university education (strictly Catholic, of course) for Benny, their own plan includes her returning to Knockglen afterwards & marrying her father's assistant (they have a struggling gentlemen's outfit shop), the unappealing, slimy & calculating Sean Walsh.
Eve is an orphan, brought up by the nuns of the Knockglen Catholic Convent (lead by the wonderful, practical Mother Francis), after her late mother's upper-class (Anglo-Irish) family rejects her because she married a low-class, Catholic handyman. She has no funds for university, unless she learns to overcome her pride & ask the Westwards to pay her tuition fee.
In Dublin they meet handsome, popular Jack Foley, cinnamon roll of the University & beautiful, cool Nan Mahon, who is playing a dangerous & ruthless game to get away from her aggressive, drunken father's house both geographically and socially & to land a rich and upper class husband.

Optimization of cold rolling process parameters in order to increasing rolling speed limited by chatter vibrations
Available online 9 January 201210.1016/j.jare.2011.12.001Received 30 August 2011; revised 8 November 2011; accepted 1 December 2011ORIGINAL ARTICLEChatter in rollingDesign of experimentGenetic algorithmNeural networkResponse surface methodology
Chatter has been recognized as major restriction for the increase in productivity of cold rolling processes, limiting the rolling speed for thin steel strips. It is shown that chatter has close relation with rolling conditions. So the main aim of this paper is to attain the optimum set points of rolling to achieve maximum rolling speed, preventing chatter to occur. Two combination methods were used for optimization. First method is done in four steps: providing a simulation program for chatter analysis, preparing data from simulation program based on central composite design of experiment, developing a statistical model to relate system tendency to chatter and rolling parameters by response surface methodology, and finally optimizing the process by genetic algorithm. Second method has analogous stages. But central composite design of experiment is replaced by Taguchi method and response surface methodology is replaced by neural network method. Also a study on the influence of the rolling parameters on system stability has been carried out. By using these combination methods, new set points were determined and significant improvement achieved in rolling speed.
Introduction
Chatter is one of the main problems in the cold rolling of strip in tandem mills. Reduction in productivity due to chatter vibration has important effect on the price of rolled strips. So chatter is not only an industrial problem, but also an economic concern in modern rolling mills. Third octave chattering is most important type of chatter that often occurs in cold rolling. The main feature of this chattering is that the strip thickness greatly fluctuates [1][2][3].
Yarita et al. [1] constructed a four-degrees-of-freedom stand model using a simple mass-spring-damper vibration system and provided methods to estimate the spring constants and damping coefficients of this system. Tamiya et al. [2] proposed that the chattering phenomenon is self-excited vibration due to the phase delay between the strip tension and vertical vibration of the work roll. Yun et al. [3] developed a model that is more suitable for studying chatter. This model presents dynamic relationship between rolling parameters. Niziol and Swiatoniowski [4] studied the effect of vibrations in rolling on the profile defects of the final metal sheet. They presented some suggestions to avoid chattering based on their numerical analysis. Younes et al. [5] presented the application of parameters design to improve both the product quality and the equipment performance in a sheet rolling plant.
Farley [6] obtained the typical mode shapes of a rolling mill that can become excited during third and fifth octave chatter. They calculated a threshold rolling speed on all cold mills where gauge chatter vibration will become self-exciting.

"The company has worked positively and constructively with elected leaders within W&J over several years to ensure that the company's mine at Carmichael not only proceeds, but proceeds with the benefits of the mine being realised by traditional owners at every stage of the project," the mining company said in a statement.
But competing interests in the W&J claim group, which acts similarly to an electorate made up of 12 families, have complicated the company's ability to secure an ILUA.
Despite Adani's claims the vote was properly convened and independently chaired in accordance with statutory process, the anti-Adani group, Wangan and Jagalingou Family Council, has released a statement describing it as a "sham meeting which has engineered a sham outcome".
'Phoney land use'
Spokesman Adrian Burragubba said the council would challenge "Adani's phoney land use deal" in the Federal Court.

"Just last month the W&J claim group met of our own accord and said no to Adani," he said.
"We made it clear that Saturday's meeting is not a legitimate meeting of the claim group and the resolution to approve Adani's deal is not legitimate either."
The council has also accused the Indian mining giant of bankrolling a "bogus" land use agreement.
An Adani spokesman has rejected reports the company made collective payments of more than $10,000 to seven pro-Adani W&J members or that there was a $550,000 offer on the table for traditional owners to authorise the ILUA.
"The only offer on the table with respect to the ILUA from Adani was the ILUA that the W&J overwhelmingly voted for (on Saturday) – a deal that will deliver intergenerational employment, business and education opportunities for the W&J," he said.
"Adani categorically rejects any assertion to the contrary."
Wangan and Jagalingou Family Council described it as a 'sham meeting which has engineered a sham outcome'.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Israel’s top military officer said on Thursday he was disappointed rather than worried about a Palestinian move to join the International Criminal Court, calling it unnecessary because Israel could investigate complaints itself.
Lieutenant General Benjamin Gantz, the chief of the Israel Defense Forces general staff, also said he was convinced the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter was the warplane of the future for the IDF, despite criticism of its costs and capabilities.
“It’s true it is very expensive,” Gantz said. “I hope that, as far as budget constraints, we’ll be able to continue with this program because I believe it’s very important for us.”
Gantz made his remarks after meeting his U.S. counterpart, Army General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The visit comes as Gantz wraps up his tenure as chief of staff.
Israel recently scaled back plans to place a second order for U.S.-made F-35 fighter jets.
Israel bought 19 F-35s for $2.75 billion in 2010, with delivery expected between 2016 and 2018. A deal for a second batch

preferred to move to the advanced group. In all 3 cases they preferred to stay in the beginner group, without changing their behavior, though.
I find this really disruptive for the mood of the group: being all beginners I am sure nobody feels comfortable in stuttering few words, so an unwelcoming atmosphere is not going to make things easier.
How can I get this stranger to change their behavior when it is negatively impacting the conversation group?
A:
First, this is mostly the guide's job. If the same person keeps doing things like this, you could say to the guide, one-on-one, that this person's behaviour is disrupting your learning and could the guide please make the person stop. You would not be wrong to do so.
But before you ask the guide to handle the recurring actions by different people, can I suggest to you another way of looking at it? This has helped me immensely in situations like these where I feel someone is judging or disrupting:
Every anger covers a wound
[I have, on multiple occasions over the past 3 decades, been the teacher with someone in the class who was making things more difficult for others in ways like you describe, and when I pushed further, I found that every time, the person was having trouble learning the material and was showing their anger and frustration in ways like those you describe. Since you are not the teacher/guide, I am not going to advise you on how to change the other person's behaviour, or at least not focus on that, but instead on how to change your perception of the motivations behind that behaviour.]
You are describing someone who is clearly impatient and feels no compunction to hide that from those nearby. That's what eye rolling says: I am impatient and frustrated with how slow this person is being. That's what doing a different task or changing the subject says, too. Do you think this impatience is helping them learn a new language quickly and well? I bet it is not. I am also willing to bet these people fear "If I go to the advanced group, people would mock me and sneer at me as I do at these other losers I am stuck with in the beginner group."
All this rudeness, I have observed in similar situations, is a coverup for how inadequate and unready the impatient people feel. They can't let themselves be fully in the lesson. They have to be sitting back, observing, judging, being at least good at teaching even if they're not good at the language, and so on, all as ways of retaining some feeling of control in something that they are finding really hard.
From that position, how do you handle these interruptions? If they are non verbal (eye rolling, doing something on the phone, wandering off to do a written thing) you ignore them as best you can. You appear to completely ignore them. Inside you think "more insecurity, I see". If they are verbal - engaging the guide in

27, examined the “moral actions” of all the gubernatorial candidates and found the extramarital affairs of both Newsom and Villaraigosa “a concern.”
But Ramirez says his Christian faith — “practicing forgiveness” — drove him to vote for Newsom. “This guy said what he did was wrong.”
Sanctity of life issues
For Republican Jim Crowley, 80, voting is his civic duty, with pro-life issues taking paramount importance. For that reason, the retired San Francisco police investigator he said he didn’t vote for incumbent Catharine Baker in the 16th Assembly District — because the Republican voted in favor of a bill that allows terminally ill patients to ask their doctors for help in ending their lives. He couldn’t bring himself to vote for anyone else.
“She lost my vote,” the Walnut Creek resident said, adding that he doesn’t believe in a moderate stance on anything related to abortion rights or assisted suicide. “I feel very strongly about this.”
The contentious recall debate
The prospective recall of Judge Persky divided voters in the South Bay.
In Palo Alto, close to the Stanford site of the rape case involving student Brock Turner, Carlene Kemmerer and her daughter, Anna, were motivated to head to the polls to vote for removing the judge from the bench.
“He should be recalled,” said Kemmerer, who has two daughters and says she was appalled at the sentence Persky delivered. Anna, 20, a student at Georgetown, agreed.
Elsewhere in Palo Alto, Cory Zwerling, a health care entrepreneur who voted Democratic across the board (after two years of Trump, he said, “there’s a lot to repair”) voted against recalling Persky.
“No one likes the way the case was resolved,”

around to look at the back, gives us a close look at the singular minifigure included in this set as well as showing off the fact you can take the roof off the vehicle itself. This can be to put other Minifigures in and/or the accessories in the vehicle and it also has an additional image of its bigger greener cousin above that image there as well. Hey you. Yes you. The awesome person watching this video! Do you like Lego and want more videos like this? Then feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel and press that bell icon so you get notified when I release a new video! Opening the box, we get three bags, two for the bigger parts and one for the smaller intricate parts, instructions for the set as well as one sticker that's used for the grille on the front. Building this set was really easy there were no complicated build techniques used so a made for a really nice relaxing building experience. Honestly, I wish all builds were this easy and had only one sticker to put on. So now that we build the set we can dive in and see how it looks, overall I feel that the set manages to capture the shape of the actual Land Rover very well within this six wide design, at this size Lego has to take some liberties with some of the design cues so the body fold along the side isn't there, and the build techniques used are basic but that's to be expected at this price point. The roof comes off nicely and allows you to put Minifigures and/or accessories in the vehicle, and you're also able to put some accessories on top of the vehicle like the snowboards I've bought on top. As for the Minifigures in this set we get one which is this adventurous redhead with a love for pineapples apparently, and features an overall design of a woman who likes to adventure with lovely pineapple shirt and beige bottoms with green glasses and ginger hair which is nicely molded. The head for this minifigure features two facial expressions for those times you're really happy and those times you're feeling a bit mischievous and accidentally buy more Lego. Finally, what do I think of this model? If you're a budget like myself and don't have 200 pounds to spend on the other Land Rover model, or you have a child that's after the Land Rover model but aren't big on complicated builds then this set is ideal for you. I honestly absolutely adore this her as I'm a massive fan of cars myself and this model fits nicely on my desk. I think my only criticism with this set is I kind of wish it was a different color, but the yellow doesn't look too bad and to be fair you could stick some stickers on and you've got a nice mountain search and rescue vehicle if you so desire. So what do you guys think? As always I'll be answering

Logitrans Accents Positive For Turkey
Published21 November, 2016
As 2016 rolls along Turkey continues to invest and expand its logistics footprint, leaving recent political unrest in the rearview mirror. Last week in Istanbul Logitrans held its tenth annual conference with more than 13,500 participants in attendance from 50 countries. From November 16-18, 2016, the show was conducted inside the expansive, well-equipped, accessible IFM Istanbul Expo Center located just off the main runways of Ataturk International Airport. There, 180 exhibitors from 26 nations gathered to network whilst presenting products and ideas.
Turkish Cargo Sets Record
FlyingTypers spoke to Turkish Airlines VP Global Sales & Marketing Halit Anlatan about Logitrans and Istanbul 2016 emerging after what can rightfully be described as a challenging summer: “This event and its positive reporting of growing attendance underscores that Istanbul as a hub of the Eurasian and Africa market is firmly focused on the future. “Turkish Cargo continues to invest in our products and services. “Next year (2017) will see movement to the new Istanbul Grand Airport, which will eventually include our expanded and greatly enhanced cargo operation. “There is no backing down from our commitment to be among the top air cargo resources in the world,” Mr. Anlatan said. “For example, during September, when Turkish Cargo recorded 20 percent growth YOY, we also added twice weekly A330 freighters to our New York (JFK) services. “This month we are adding a weekly Chicago service via A330F Chicago (O’Hare) to Istanbul. “Looking ahead, 2017 will see our cargo services continue to grow including new frequencies and destinations in the Middle East,” Mr.
Anlatan declared.
UTIKAD Welcome
Turgut Erkeskin, (pictured here with publisher Geoffrey Arend) President of the Association of International Forwarding & Logistics Service Providers (UTIKAD) in Turkey said: “This event is great as we get to see both our customers and service partners together networking in one place. “Turkey is Europe’s seventh largest economy, so this week Istanbul business goes face to face at Logitrans with meetings that can drive our continued expansion on the international business front. “We welcome the opportunity to better understand the opportunities that our transportation industry offers,” Turgut said. Hasan Hatipoglu, General Manager of Lufthansa Cargo in Turkey added, “Every year we are very happy with the quantity and quality of the participants and the chance to meet with air cargo industry representatives.” Logitrans included the usual suspects in terms of

both yourself and him. Now, you raise some interesting points: > I don't want to accidentally flirt I wouldn't worry about this too much. NoFap is merely a catalyst for you becoming a better person overall. Not masturbating will not automatically turn an introvert into an extravert. However, you did indicate your past experiences with men, but I wouldn't give it too much worry. As long as you stay focussed, you should be fine. > I've noticeably lost sensitivity in my clitoris from my vibrator, I find myself mentally objectifying my male friends, and I lose a lot of valuable time that I should be spending on work projects. Excellent, you have a few reasons. You acknowledge your habit is interfering with your daily life. This is one of the first steps on the road to recovery. When you finally see him again, you want to be able to say "I've waited X months/years for this, and it was everything I could have imagined and more" and have no issues with your performance. In one of your other responses, you said > he was sending me many inappropriate text messages in order to frustrate me Did he really know you were abstaining, yet still sent the pictures? Did you tell him that it frustrated you, and did he just brush it off? I'd hope he'd be a bit more understanding, especially since it's a LDR, for you can use him as an accountability partner in addition to NoFap. TL;DR I'd go for it if I were you. But take note of what's holding you back when you feel it. Is it just the sheer urges, or is NoFap affecting your "flirtiness" like you're so worried about? Godspeed, Petticoat. Edit: grammar

Hey guys, thanks for reading. Just had a bit of a concerning incident yesterday with my 3yo (jet black)GSD we adopted 4 months ago. Background; I adopted him from a friend who no longer had time for him, due to having a new baby, plus work commitments. They used to take him to the river often, where he would fetch a Frisbee from the water. The dog is well trained, (Sit, lay, spin, recall etc) in comparison to my other GSD(white shepherd), he is much more obedient, however he is also a lot more territorial and more likely to attack people he perceives to be intruders. He is generally good with my 4yo son in the backyard. Incident; We took our dogs to the river yesterday, for the first time with our kids (4yob, 8mob) everything went to plan, the dogs chased their frisbee into the water and were having a

it has hitherto done, when it comes to see more clearly
what is their legitimate and what their ultimate mission.
These remarks indicate the main intention of the writer. It is not so
much to enlighten or aid, or in any way directly affect the medical man,
as to open the eyes of the public to their truest interests; to a just
knowledge of themselves; and to some faint conception of their bondage
to credulity and quackery. The reader will find that I go for science
and truth, let them affect whom they may. Let him, then, suspend his
judgment till he has gone through this volume once, and I shall have no
fears. He may, indeed, find fault with my style, and complain of my
literary or philosophic unfitness for the task I assigned myself; but he
will, nevertheless, be glad to know my facts.
Should any one feel aggrieved by the exposures I have made in the
details which follow, let me assure him that no one is more
exposed--nor, indeed, has more cause to be aggrieved--than myself. Let
us all, then, as far as is practicable, keep our own secrets. Let us not
shrink from such exposures as are likely, in a large measure, to benefit
mankind, while the greatest possible inconvenience or loss to ourselves
is but trifling.
Some may wish that instead of confining myself too rigidly to naked fact
and sober reasoning, I had given a little more scope to the imagination.
But is not plain, "unvarnished" truth sometimes not only "stranger,"
but, in a work like this, better also, than any attempts at "fiction"?

I ask this in your name, oh mighty moon of women’s power and nature.” With that, she threw her head back, twirled in a little circle, and then took a deep breath.
The musty smell of the wood filled her empty lungs. This was her favorite scent because it was her home in every essence. She felt ready to move on now with confidence, and she slowly removed her silken dress that she had worn to the market.
Standing there naked, she felt peace radiate to her from moonbeams. The spirits were shining their blessing upon her. Smiling, she embraced this feeling, and soon her form began to change. Her face shrank and hair grew from every gland on her body. The hair was pure white and it soon left no visible trance of skin. Her eyes turned from their color of blue to a deep reflective green. She felt powerful and at ease as tiny paws replaced her delicate hands. She could no longer hold herself upright and gravity knocked her to all fours. She was ready for this, though, and so she took the fall amiably and with grace.
She was ready to face her future now as she stared one last time up at the mystical moon before running swiftly down the trail that would lead to the clearing which was the place of her birth. Tonight was the day of her mating ceremony. As the princess of the wolves, she had to choose in front of the rest of the pack. She had been troubled when first morning broke, but now she was tranquil and was ready to begin her new life. As she ran into the clearing, the mist closed the space so that her image seemed to disappear into nothing.
Dear Friend
Dear friend,
It's been a while since we talked. It's been a while since I called you friend.
I wanted to call you a jerk, a whiny baby, and a disgrace to society, but I would be insulting these three kinds of people if I did. So I didn't.
Do you remember the times we would walk together under the sun as if we had all the time in the world to walk? I suppose not; you only remembered the times you wished you were somewhere else, walking with somebody else.
Do you remember talking to me about your goals, your plans, your dreams and your fears? I suppose not; you only remembered talking to me about how I was selfish, incompetent, proud and needy.
But I remember. I remember you confiding to me your secrets. I remember you whispering to me about that girl who just won't stop whining about her problems. I remember you giving me the daily gossip, the newest, hottest scoop. I remember you flipping out over the things I found so innocuous. I

I'm personally very excited about the direction this is heading and I
encourage you to give feedback either on the wiki or on the UX list.
I do want to give an general update on the status of this work and
what we are thinking in terms of implementations. Overall, I would
like to see this work, once refined and vetted further by the
community, make it into the next major release of Sakai. We don't
really have a good idea of the scope of the implementation project at
this point in time. Moreover, the "refining and further vetting" needs
to include user testing.
The need to get some user testing going and the need to determine some
rough development estimates have led us to start building a prototype
of the design work. We believe we can do this quickly enough to use
these prototypes for user testing and, at the same time, get a better
sense of how difficult the implementation will be. The "we" includes
Cambridge, Georgia Tech, Nathan and another contractor being used to
generate some HTML, but if you have resources to help please don't be
shy! Our current step is to generate the HTML that will allow the
developers to start their prototyping while Nathan continues to work
on the design.
There is always a risk that this prototyping takes on a life of its
own and turns into production code, which we need to be careful about.
Rapid prototyping always runs the risk of creating spaghetti, as I'm
sure you know better than I. It is also likely to result in problems
with accessibility and internationalization, among other things. So
we'll need to keep an eye on this work as it begins to mature and
ensure the code quality is high. We'll also be working to engage the
Fluid team, especially around accessibility.
One final point. If this work makes it into the next major release of
Sakai, as I am hoping it will, we will be cognizant of the fact that
many members of the community may want to use that release without
switching user interfaces. Our implementation will need to
accommodate, therefore, a "classic Sakai" interface.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I encourage all comments
to be on-list if possible.
Thanks!

Further to my email earlier I've discovered I can either have the truncation
on or the reconnect on, but I can't include both in the url otherwise Tomcat
doesn't start up. Also, if I take off the autoreconnect I get a null
pointer error on my connection class.
I'm getting desperate so does anyone know how I can set the truncation to
false and still have the auto reconnect on?

I still have a few accessories to get, but it's pretty much done.

We had the old clawfoot tubs before, and I was spoiled with them, so we got 2 new ones. That meant moving 4 of those bad boys!
I can't find any before pictures, but I know I have some of the upstairs bathroom. I'll be sharing those soon, so make sure to stop back. I'll also have some of my daughter's new house-can't wait to share! Thanks for your patience with me in my irregular posting.

Happy fall to you! It has been a little nipply out there! BRRR! I made this little treat holder for my hostess this month, who happens to be in the hospital : ( I hope this little guy will brighten her day a little. I wanted to make her something for Thanksgiving, but didn't really have any idea what. I had a stack of empty button containers sitting on my desk, so I decided to start with one of those. I fit 7 Rolos inside and then proceeded to decorate it.
I punched out a Soft Suede circle with the 21/2" Circle Punch, which covers the lid perfectly! I punched out another circle in Crumb cake and ran it through the Big Shot using the Chevron Embossing Folder. I cut a little off the top and layered it over the Soft Suede circle. Next I punched out a couple of wings using the Large Oval Punch, and for his head I used the 13/8" Circle Punch. I used the Owl Builder Punch for his cheeks and heart, which were punched out of Riding Hood Red. His beak was punched with the Little Labels Punch Pack in More Mustard. His little gobbly-hanging thing was punched with the Bird Builder Punch in Cajun Crazy, and I added a couple of Googlie Eyes from the Holiday Catalog. The sign was stamped with the what I thought was the Simply Serif Mini Alphabet, but I think I accidentally grabbed a retired set by mistake. The sign was stamped with Soft Suede ink on Crumb Cake and punched out with the Modern Label Punch. I added some Linen Thread and attached it with a Glue Dot.

I apologize, I didn't really understand how bad it was for you. I went to my own Sunday schools, but we never had stuff like that. It was just reviewing scripture really. Not to mention my parents and family are not overly strict about how I practice my faith. They know there's a lot of things I don't believe in, and there are a lot of things they don't care for (for example, they could care less that my cousin is gay, his parents struggled with it but they're cool now.) What I'm trying to say is, don't let a few individuals make you generalize a group as a whole, and try to be understanding towards your family, you'll see they'll return it in kind. If you truly believe they've been indoctrinated, then you'll understand that it's just something they can't let go of easily, and it requires time. I see a lot of snarky comments on this subreddit, and frankly, it doesn't help, it makes things worse. If you wanna raise your children to love science and nature, that is fantastic, I hope to do so someday as well, but don't let them become human beings who are arrogant towards those they think are unintelligent due to their beliefs. At the very least, teach them to respect other peoples beliefs like they would want their own ones respected. Again, I apologize for being an ass earlier.

It could be a hibernation issue. Try disabling hibernation by typing the code below into an administrative command prompt, and see if that works. Since your issue isn't easy to re-create, it's tough to say if that's the cause, but it's worth a shot. To undo the change made by the code, simply switch *off* to *on* and run the code again. *powercfg.exe /hibernate off* To Show Window Contents While Dragging: Open the Visual Effects settings.

Alleah, and Lo-Bo came over to the foodle's domicile, but they got distracted by Melly Belly. and ended up being four hours late. meh. they eventually arrived, and me, Laura-Gator, the foodle, and 'lexis-girl went bush jumping (surprisingly amusing), and sitting on other people's lawns. the foodle and I tackled each other constantly. I have discovered that a lower centre of balance because of being a woman, coupled with intense shortness equals lots of tackling fun.

Here's my problem:
I don't know how to handle this inside of my component now. If you follow the article ( https://medium.com/@stowball/a-dummys-guide-to-redux-and-thunk-in-react-d8904a7005d3?source=linkShare-36723b3116b2-1502668727) it will end up like this:
componentDidMount() {
this.props.fetchData('http://localhost:3001/locks')
}
And
Doors.propTypes = {
fetchData: PropTypes.func.isRequired,
doors: PropTypes.object.isRequired
}
const mapStateToProps = state => {
return {
doors: state.doors
}
}
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => {
return {
fetchData: url => dispatch(doorsFetchData(url))
}
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(Doors)
My question
So my question is how should I handle my multiple get requests inside of my component now? Sorry if this questions seems lazy, but I really can't figure it out and I've really been trying to.
All help is super appreciated!!
A:
Assuming your request do not depend on each other, I would suggest keeping each action separate. Possible benefits of that approach:
Easier debugging
Easier testing
Closer to single responsibility principle
Suggested implementation
actions:
const fetchCustomers = () => dispatch => {
try {
axios.get(`${settings.hostname}/customers`)
.then(res => {
dispatch(setCustomers(res.json()))
})
} catch(err) => console.log('Error', err)
}
const fetchEvents = () => dispatch => {
try {
axios.get(`${settings.hostname}/events`)
.then(res => {
dispatch(setEvents(res.json()))
})
} catch(err) => console.log('Error', err)
}
const fetchLocks = () => dispatch => {
try {
axios.get(`${settings.hostname}/locks`)
.then(res => {
dispatch(setLocks(res.json()))
})
} catch(err) => console.log('Error', err)
}
Doors component snippet:
import * as actionCreators from './actions.js'
import { bindActionCreators } from 'redux'
/*...*/
componentDidMount() {
this.props.fetchCustomers();
this.props.fetchEvents();
this.props.fecthLocks();
}
const mapStateToProps = state => {
return {
customers: state.doors.customers,
events: state.doors.events,
locks: state.doors.locks
}
}
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => {
return bindActionCreators(actionCreators, dispatch);
}
export default connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps)(Doors)
EDIT: added example reducer and adopted mapStateToProps accordingly. In this reducer instance doors is the this container's state and holds events, locks and customers:
export function events(state = initialState, action) {
switch (action.type) {
case 'EVENTS_FETCH_SUCCESS':
return Object.assign({}, state, {events: action.events});
case 'CUSTOMERS_FETCH_SUCCESS':
return Object.assign({}, state, {customers: action.customers});
case 'LOCKS_FETCH_SUCCESS':
return Object.assign({}, state, {locks: action.locks});
default:
return state;
}
}
Now requests are executed in parallel and they fail independently.

more comprehensible.
2) I also checked configuration files. I noticed that CONFIG_HZ is set to

I remember a trip on the Algoma Central in the late 80s in the winter. There was a problem with the steam line at the coupling between our coach and the one behind us. Half way up to Hearst they brought the 3 or 4 passengers in the rear coach up to our as the sink had frozen. Not long afterward, the two guys operating the flanger at the rear of the train came up to ride in coach the rest of the way. The windows had all fogged up and they couldn’t see out to know when to lift the flanger blades.

about winning (that's one thing Trump got right... you can't do *anything* without winning)
Look, it's the evil men oppressing innocent women again. I like how that worthless, worthless dad got that innocent woman pregnant, when he was so obviously not dad material. If only there was a way to prevent pregnancies. If only things like foresight, responsibility, or contraception existed. It's too bad that it only became blindingly obvious to the mother how worthless the dad was *after* she got pregnant. I'm being sarcastic, of course. Is really there no accountability, whatsoever, for women in our society?
Oddly enough, no one - even the older women - had any real questions. Almost everyone knew someone who had used it to quit smoking. I really think no one minded at all. I hosted, so I assured everyone that I wouldn't do it at their houses, and they all said they really didn't care if I did. As much as blu cigs are a rip-off and totally useless, it seems that their very existence is pretty helpful because of the marketing.
Its only a safety if the player whose end zone it is has possession of the ball and then attempts to leave the end zone, otherwise he can just kneel down, and then its a touchback, where his team will get the ball 20yds away from his endzone. Until he makes a motion to attempt to head down the field, he can just kneel down and his team gets the ball. It happens on kickoffs a lot, where you'll see the kick go into the end zone and instead of attempting to return it, the returning player just kneels down because he figures he doesn't have a good chance of getting to at least the 20 yard line.
I too used to live in a world where things where more black or white and much less grey. In reality things are much less straightforward than just "it's wrong". The articles read like some poor woman had her rights completely ignored and the system was continually abusing her. My point was that: 1) there are statutory laws in place to protect her 2) every step along the way she would've had professionals argue for her freedoms and rights too when decisions were made 3) things were never one long conspiracy. Every decision (such as the detention, the C-section, to not give her the baby after delivery, to STILL not give her the baby after she recovered) would have been re-evaluations taking into account her wishes and mental state at the time. I'm not arguing that the outcome is right or that every decision along the way was perfect. Without reading the notes of the case I don't think anyone can. But there definitely would have been due process followed. This is not just some faceless government agency overstepping its bounds.

IDEAS FOR TORONTO: Mandatory hybrid taxis
My first, and only, experience in one of Toronto’s hybrid taxis was a couple of months ago. I have since been bewildered by the lack of hybrid taxis on the road. There are roughly 40 hybrid taxis in the city, representing less than one percent of Toronto’s 5700 cabs. This is one of the lowest ratios of hybrid taxis in any major Canadian city. Toronto has fallen behind cities like Vancouver, who boasts over 100 hybrid cabs and a policy that all new taxis be hybrid. Toronto has also fallen behind its own 2007 clean air action plan goal of shifting all taxis to low emission or hybrid technologies by 2015.
A 2009 study published by the Toronto Atmospheric Fund, TAF, reported Toronto’s taxi fleet CO2 emissions could be cut by 25 percent, up to 19,000 tonnes per year, if all cabs went hybrid. The study compared conventional gas-powered Toyota Camry taxis with hybrid Camry taxis, collecting 750,000 km of fuel consumption data over 18 months, and found that drivers could save roughly a thousand dollars over the seven-year allowable taxi lifespan. While the savings are modest, the emission reduction benefit is substantial. Hybrid taxis emit an average of three tonnes less CO2 per year than conventional cabs.
Ownership structure is the primary reason hybrids have been slow to gain popularity. Two-thirds of cabs in Toronto are owned by one party and leased to a driver. This separation between owner and driver creates a split incentive. Taxi owners do not benefit from purchasing costly hybrids; it’s the drivers paying for fuel who see the gains. The remaining third of Toronto’s taxis are owner-operator. This structure enables drivers, who are also the owners, to realize a return on purchasing a hybrid. All the taxis in the TAF study were owner-operator.
Toronto Atmospheric Fund Hybrid Performance Estimates
Used vehicles for taxi use, allowed by the municipal code, create a further disincentive for both ownership models to opt for hybrids. Conventional gas-powered used vehicles, mostly year-old fleet vehicles, are available at a fraction of the price of hybrids. Drivers are also wary of hybrid battery technology. Replacement hybrid batteries can run in the range of 4000 dollars. And while there has yet to be a battery problem in any of Toronto’s hybrid cabs, drivers see potential battery replacement as a large financial risk.
The municipality, who dictates vehicle requirements, has been slow to encourage the transition to hybrids.

him, pulled him deep like the hole in his mind he was far too familiar with. It was like being underwater, in Jerome F. Davis own troubled mind. The story was twisting and frightening, and deeply, deeply… compelling. He couldn’t even quite remember what he had read in those feverish moments and yet, it felt like it was something that connected to him on a level he couldn’t yet access. It was bizarre and deeply uncomfortable, Colin felt like a layer of protection in his psyche had been stripped off and now he was left naked and afraid in the darkness. ‘But of course,’ He reminded himself patiently, ‘I’m not alone. I’m not in the darkness. I have Kitty, and my shining Pearl, and Tuckersoft.’ He rubbed his arms with the soft edge of the blanket. He had often used the worlds of books to escape as a child, glazing his mind over the darkness of his reality, but he hadn’t fallen that deep into one in quite some time. And unlike the books he had used back then, this one seemed to enable darkness as opposed to paving a way over and around it. Colin had struggled a lot with mental illness throughout his life, and he’d made some improvement through the time given to him in the loops, but he knew he’d never be finished. It was a lifelong struggle to keep himself afloat, but one that was worth it for everything he had gained, despite the pain of it all. The way he was feeling now, after reading Bandersnatch, seemed everything akin to a backslide. But it also sparked curiosity in Colin. What had drawn him to that book in the first place, what had drawn Stefan? And why and how could the way it was written pull him down that deep? It was looking like a piece of himself in the mirror, reflected cold and dark. Colin was no good at backing down from a challenge, and this seemed like a new mountain to climb and overcome, to investigate this part of himself and… let the light in? Clean the cobwebs out? Embrace it? He wasn’t sure. He just knew that this was part of the way forward, so really, even if it wasn’t something he was prepared for, the only way out was up.
It was these thoughts and experiences that Colin’s unconscious was forced to reconcile in his sleep, an uneasy task by any standard. His dreams were erratic, and many a nightmare made its way to the stage. The turbulence of his dreams manifested itself physically, and Kitty had to shove Colin back to the other side of the bed and steal back the sheets a few times as they slept. The fitfulness carried over into the morning, and Colin awoke with a start into the light of another new day.

you kiss your significant other goodnight in the evening. And Taboogasm is a damn good reason as to why that should be the case. This man has proven he can write anything and write it well. But what I find most impressive about Gregor's writing is the fact that he can make the craziest shit so damn real and enthralling. Because, in the hands of a lesser author, his premises would not be taken seriously. It is a testament to Gregor's writing chops that I was able to suspend my disbelief while reading the story you are about to experience. For fuckery is afoot, and you're about to have one helluva freaky ride.
In summation: Taboogasm is a must read for many reasons, but the simplest reason is the best one. You have never and will never read anything like it. Come for the experience. Stay for the fantastic writing.

These lectures are notable for their examination of the relationship between justice and truth. But, they are also interesting for their examination of the relationship between money and exchange.
This review is by D. Bennison of Bennison Books
If you are not yet familiar with DM Denton's work, this short story is a wonderful introduction to it. It is a hallmark of the author's writing that she is able to rapidly set a scene and bring characters to life with great skill and authenticity, immediately involving the reader in the lives of her protagonists. In this involving story, a young woman gradually gains the courage to be herself through reading books from the library of the title, and -- both literally and metaphorically -- writing herself into a new and autonomous selfhood: '...to make a beginning all her own'.
Wow I'm in Awe of JA's genius as an author ( again). I read a lot of books but something makes her style stand out to me and reels me in every time. I can't get enough!
I was excited and scared to read about Merc. I hadn't felt that way about any of the other characters associated with and around the company or the team. There are always some twists and turns ahead in what I call "the Huss Experience" books but MMITD took me to a whole new world that is honestly very dark, different and a little disturbing. But what can I say.. I loved that Sh@t!!!
Another awesome read!!! Beyond 5 mindfucking stars!!!
Hush and read Come Meet Me in the Dark sooner rather than later. Trust me.
Can't wait for Sasha's book in May
Fine uses a lot of Bush-isms and likes to write in cliche. This got a little tiring, but I still found this book to be "heartwarming" and "inspiring".
Loved the connection to characters I felt because I read the glass castle first. Wonderful book.

@RW A few dozen billionaires? The top 1% has more wealth than the bottom 90% - didn't they get that wealth from the sweat of those people? The 1% hold onto it while most people can't survive an economic or medical emergency, and they make it through overpriced products and under-compensated workers. And the "bulk of taxes ... from small businesses" mean that the folks with all the money aren't paying their fair share. Bernie didn't make this stuff up, and your cherry picked statistics do not reflect the hardships that so many experience.

While most nursing home patients don’t live past one year, they often spend that year in crisis going back and forth to the hospital as they end their life.
Inoculating nursing home residents is the humane treatment they deserve and protects all of the people who care for them and love them.
I certainly wouldn't oppose an eventual voting rights constitutional amendment as recommended by the election law expert Mr. Hasen. But Congress already has a great deal of power to effect needed changes by statute itself, notwithstanding repubs' typical self-interested insistence on deference to "states' rights" in this area.
Article I, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution currently provides: "The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Place of Chusing Senators."
On its face, that provision appears to give states perhaps a first shot at enacting voting rights laws, but also empowers Congress to "make or alter such" laws as it sees fit. The 14th Amendment also empowers Congress to enact laws to enforce equal protection guarantees. Get on a stick now, Congress, and know that voters are watching to see who's working to ensure our rights and who's trying to foil them.
Michelle Goldberg could have stopped her column right at the subheading, "There's little evidence..." Exactly. Only four states have voted. So there is not enough evidence to be making bold predictions about turnout for the other 46 states. Couldn't this column at least have waited until after Super Tuesday? Just seems to me like Goldberg wants to air out one more Bernie hit piece before elections tomorrow.

If this is just politics, if the charges are all bogus, a independent auditor would be able to examine all the books and the case will be thrown out of court. But this won't happen. James has the receipts and someone named Wayne is going to lose a lot of money. Grifters shout loud when they get pinched.
Trump's speech was stupefying. I watched for five minutes, and had to turn it off. A normal person would have accepted the results gracefully and may have even apologized for putting the country through the turmoil of his impeachable offenses (although he is incapable of apologizing for anything).

Also, you could superimpose an envelope on the bird for the Compose

I'm also a Spectrum fan, and I still occasionally use my pre-Amstrad 128k
Speccy, especially on cold days when the heat sink acts as a radiator. I use
it with my Plus D disk drive system, and progressing to SAM was a logical step
to take because of this.
My main grumble about later versions of the Spectrum was the 3" disk system.
Amstrad should have bolted on the Plus D system to make disk use very easy and
cheap. The 3" disks were a major drawback to buying these machines.
The Spectrum will always be regarded as a great computer for its time, and
I'll be very sad if mine ever gives up the ghost. Joyous memories of ten
minute tape loads, followed by the Speccy crashing are pure nostalgia, not the
mention the wobbly edge connector! Still, it was all part of the fun and magic
of those marvellous computers. Where's the challenge of loading a CD?

Ok Ok. It was during setup and configuration. The 520 was shipped to
a hosted data center where it will be attached to two PDU's. The rest
is up to the cyber center. An the UPS was capable of running the 520 on
one power supply, even with the 3 Dell server on it, but the 520 would
not boot with both power supplies on the UPS, even when it was the only

offset
I came in a new post because I’m quite confused with the use of an offset in gam() function (mgcv package). I’m actually working on predicting marine top predator’s distribution using aerial surveys (predators’ observations) and secondary production model outputs. My data are shaped in a 0.25° resolution grid, over large areas such as south-west Indian Ocean. Surveys have been done in several sectors over that grid, that is, all the grid is not sampled. My secondary production covariates are from SEAPODYM model, developed by Lehodey et al. I have a set of about 12 covariates, and wish to find the best combination of them to predict predators’ distribution.
That said, because my goal is to predict predators’ distribution, I performed a model selection based on GCV score, after having excluded all combinations of correlated covariates. I am modelling observations, therefore I used a quasipoisson distribution (overdispersed data) with sampled area per pixel as an offset. I made my model selection with the model written as follows:
mod1<-gam(Y ~ offset(log(sampled area))+ covariate1 + covariate2 + covariate3 + covariate4, family=quasipoisson)
Until then, everything worked well, but then I started predicting predators’ observations over my full grid. Doing this with the previous model resulted in predicting only over sampled pixel. Following colleagues’ advices, I predicted using a different writing, thinking it would not change anything in the results:
mod2<-gam(Y ~ covariate1 + covariate2 + covariate3 + covariate4, offset(log(sampled area)), family=quasipoisson)
Indeed, it allows me to predict observation over the entire grid, but I am completely confused since I looked at the summaries of the models. The results are in fact quite different, with both GCV scores and Explained Deviances having higher values:

Family: quasipoisson
Link function: log

the name.
You remember the grief of Victor Shelton was so depressing over the
death of his father that he surely would have gone into a decline but
for the ardor roused by this proposed excursion to the Pacific. The
prospect was so fascinating that he came out of the dark clouds that
gathered about him, and was the most enthusiastic of the four.
George was almost as deeply stirred and in as high spirits as his
brother, but now and then a tremor of fear passed over him when he
thought of what they would have to pass through before their return. He
would have shrunk and probably turned back but for Deerfoot. There was
no person in the world in whom he had such faith as in the young
Shawanoe; but there is a limit to human attainment, and it might be that
his dusky friend would soon reach his when the four turned their faces
westward.
George had named his horse “Jack,” while Victor called his “Prince.” All
were quite similar to one another, being strong, sturdy, docile and
enduring, but none was specially gifted in the way of speed. More than
likely they would meet many of their kind among the Indians which would
be their superior in fleetness. But, if danger threatened, our friends
would not rely upon their horses for safety.
Now, in setting out on so long a journey, which of necessity must last
many months, our friends had to carry some luggage with them. This was
made as light as possible, but pared to the utmost there was enough to
require a fifth horse. While of the same breed as the others, he was of
stronger build and best fitted for burdens. He was the gift of Ralph
Genther, who, you may recall, was beaten in the turkey shoot by
Deerfoot. It was Genther who named him “Zigzag.”
“’Cause,” explained the donor, “if you let him to go as he pleases,
he’ll make the crookedest track in creation; he will beat a ram’s horn
out of sight.”
Excepting his blanket, Mul-tal-la had no luggage which he did not wear
on his person. It must be admitted that the American Indian as a rule is
much lacking in that virtue which is said to be next to godliness.
Despite the romance that is often thrown around the red man, it is
generally more pleasant to view him at a distance. Close companionship
with him is by no means pleasant.
I need hardly say that it was not so with Deerfoot. He was as dainty as
any lady with his person. Kenton, Boone and others had laughed at him
many times because of his care in bathing and the frequency with which
he plunged into icy cold water for no other reason than for tidiness and
health. The material of which his hunting shirt and leggings were made
allowed them to be worn a long time without showing the effects, but
underneath them was underclothing kept scrupulously clean by Deerfoot’s
own hands. Only his close friends

Q:
Memory management and properties (init/dealloc)
Until yesterday I thought I understood how properties memory management works, but then I ran an "Analize" task with XCode and got plenty of "This object is not own here". Here is a simple example that describes my problem :
MyObservingObject.h:
@interface MyObservingObject : NSObject
@property(nonatomic, retain) NSMutableDictionary *observedDictionary;
-(id)initWithDictCapacity:(int)capacity;
@end
MyObservingObject.m:
@synthesize observedDictionary;
-(id)initWithDictCapacity:(int)capacity {
self = [super init];
if (self) {
self.observedDictionary = [[[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithCapacity:capacity] autorelease];
}
return self;
}
- (void)dealloc {
// The following line makes the Analize action say :
// "Incorrect decrement of the reference count of an object that is not owned at this point by the caller"
[self.observedDictionary release], self.observedDictionary=nil;
[super dealloc];
}
What I don't understand is Why should I leave this property without calling release on it? My @property is set as retain (copy does the same), so when I'm doing self.myRetainProperty = X, then X got its retain count increased (it's owned by self), didn't it ?
A:
It did get increased, but when you set it to nil, the setter method first releases the backing instance variable, and only then does it retain and assign the new value. Thus setting the property to nil is enough, setting the ivar to nil leaks memory, though.
For your better understanding: the typical implementation of an autogenerated retaining setter is equivalent to something like
- (void)setFoo:(id)foo
{
if (_foo != foo) {
[_foo release];
_foo = [foo retain];
}
}
Also note that, as a consequence, you should never release properties like this. If you do so, the backing ivar may be deallocated, and messaging it (release by the accessor when setting the property to nil afterwards) can crash.
Q:
Inner join with count and group by
I have 2 tables
Timetable :
pupil_id, staff_id, subject, lesson_id
Staff_info :
staff_id, surname
The timetable table contains 1000s of rows because each student's ID is listed under each period they do.
I want to list all the teacher's names, and the number of lessons they do (count). So I have to do SELECT with DISTINCT.
SELECT DISTINCT TIMETABLE.STAFF_ID,
COUNT(TIMETABLE.LESSON_ID),
STAFF.SURNAME
FROM STAFF
INNER JOIN TIMETABLE ON TIMETABLE.STAFF_ID = STAFF.STAFF_ID
GROUP BY TIMETABLE.STAFF_ID
However I get the error:
Column 'STAFF.SURNAME' is invalid in the select list because it is not
contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
A:
This should do what you want:
SELECT s.STAFF_ID, COUNT(tt.LESSON_ID),
s.SURNAME
FROM STAFF s INNER JOIN
TIMETABLE tt
ON tt.STAFF_ID = s.STAFF_ID
GROUP BY s.STAFF_ID, s.SURNAME;
Notes:
You don't need DISTINCT unless there are duplicates in either table. That seems unlikely with this data structure, but if a staff member could have two of the same lesson, you would use COUNT(DISTINCT tt.LESSON_ID).

ASP.NET Application Services but configure it to use a different schema. I'm using the aspnet_regsql.exe tool as outlined in this URL which by default creates tables and stored procs with a dbo schema.
So i thought i could just generate a database script from existing Application Objects and then find and replace [dbo]'s with [example], and then delete the original Application Services objects and execute the edited script to get the outcome I wanted. Would have only taken a jiffy.
But in reading this Scott Gu blog post there are people in the comments section who have tried this very approach and found it fell over. Scott replied by requesting an email about the issue, which I assume is an acknowledgement of the problem, but I dont see any resolution.
So I'm at the data modelling stage and I really dont want a whole lot of hassle down the track. Does anyone know if this has been resolved or if there continue to be any snags in the find and replace approach to the 'dbo' schema problem?
UPDATE:
So i didn't even get "very far down the track" before the above fell over. It's obviously easy enough to configure the database so that all the objects properly reference each other using the new schema but its appears all the support code has hardwired "dbo" references in it... rather than using the default schema of the connecting user account.
Simply trying to use the VS Studio > Project | ASP.NET CONFIGURATION tool is enough to break it. After altering the web config to point at the new database with the adjusted schemas and then going to the Security Tab of the config tools I get an error "Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion'". So it appears 'dbo' has been baked in. :(
UPDATE 2:
So I've added in SYNONYMS as outlined in the accepted answer and it works but I did have to enter 4 records into the database in order to get it rolling. That took a whole 30 seconds. ;)
Before doing this I got the following error:
The
'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider'
requires a database schema compatible
with schema version '1'
So I had to copy an application row from the aspnet_Applications table. And then 3 rows from the aspnet_SchemaVersions table. I got these from a default dbo schema install.
This was the aspnet_Applications record (masked 'xxxx' for uniqueness - you'll have to make your own key):
/ / xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx NULL
These were the aspnet_SchemaVersions records:
common 1 True
membership 1 True
role manager 1 True
It all works now though. I will update this post if I encounter any problems in the future.
A:
In that case the answer most likely lies with the use of Sql Server SYNONYMS which are like aliases. This article How and why should I use SQL Server 2005 synonyms? has an introduction to them.
You basically want to:
CREATE SYNONYM
[dbo].[aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion]
FOR
[yourschema].[aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion]
For each affected object. This could be time consuming so this script will likely be of some benefit:
SELECT 'CREATE SYNONYM [dbo].[' +

It has made somewhat painfully obvious as of late as to the lack of a
centralized source of updates for users. This has recently become true
moreso with the apache2 config file changes and the step to php5. A couple
of things I'd like to bring out:
1) Currently, our gentoo.org front page is very, well, slim. Afaik, I only
see major site updates, mailing lists notices, gdp updates, and of course the
GWN. In a way I think we're underestimating our frontpage. When someone is
first introduced to gentoo, they are most likely directed immediately to the
frontpage, www.gentoo.org. If they notice things such as major updates and
what not, chances are they'll most likely keep viewing it throughout their
Gentoo usage (at least I'd hope). However, it becomes somewhat combersome to
check the page every now and then for some, which comes to the second point.
2) The front page also has a nice RSS feed. This can be utilized for people
that would rather have convient RSS feeds avaliable on demand. Considering
that rss readers are avaliable pretty much in every form nowdays, it would be
considered a good idea to update the front page more for this reason as well.
This would give users the chance to have news feed to them in a convient and
functional manner (after all, that is the point of RSS). Of course, maybe
people are more tune with email, which comes to point three.
3) I think it would be a good idea for gentoo-announce to also include front
page announcements. This would work well for people that are more email
oriented (they use email a lot for business) and would keep things
centralized for them. This would also be best promoted on the front page,
maybe stickied in some form or another.
So in conclusion, front page should get more updates, which would propigate to
rss, and maybe link gentoo-announce to the front page as well.

In reading Apple's guide on BarButtonItems, I see that several bar button icons exist which are not choosable from the Attributes inspector in Xcode (in particular the large "chevron" which appears in 4 orientations.
I've searched for a way to access them, but cannot find one. Does this mean that they are internal and only accessible to Apple's own application and I'm not permitted to use them in my own application?
A:
This are examples for the iOS Human Interface Guidelines. So they are on this page, to show
the similarities in size, detail, and weight produce a sense of
harmonious unity
Not saying, that they are available for the devs. If you want to use them anyway, you have to get and add the image files manually.
Especially the requested "chevron"s should be easily drawable.
Q:
d3JS: iterate through paths of unknown point count
This question is an extension of an original question regarding line segments.
In regards to the original question, the issue of drawing line segments from a tsv has been solved with this script (thanks to @VividD). Here is the data for drawing two line segments from a tsv:
x0 y0 x1 y1 weight
0.5 0.5 0.2 0.2 2
0.25 0.35 0.7 0.8 1
Now, I am trying to draw paths (or polylines) with an unknown number of vertices. This would require the script to iterate through each row, looking for the number of columns to add to the data for each path. I'm unaware of how to do this because the scripts I've been working with assumption that the programmer knows the column names (d.close, d.date, etc.).
x0 y0 x1 y1 x2 y2 weight
0.5 0.5 0.2 0.2 2
0.25 0.35 0.7 0.8 0.5 0.6 1
Does anyone have an idea for how to iterate through the example above, drawing paths for each row of data?
A:
Assuming the data is in array data, this will create an array points of variable length for each of your tuples:
data.forEach(function(d) {
d.points = [];
for (var i = 0; d["x"+i] !== "" && (typeof d["x"+i] !== 'undefined'); i++) {
d.points.push([d["x"+i], d["y"+i]]);
}
});
E.g. for the first row in your example
d.points = [[0.5, 0.5], [0.2, 0.2]]
Which can then be used to draw the lines:
var line = d3.svg.line();
svg.selectAll("path")
.data(data)
.enter()
.append("path");
svg.selectAll("path")
.attr("d", function(d) { return line(d.points); })
.attr("stroke-width", function(d) { return (d.weight); })
.attr("stroke", "black")
.attr("fill", "none");
Full example here.
Q:
binding to width property in code behind
I have a situation where I need to create View box with one button. The xaml for this is as below: Please observe Width property of viewbox. The Width should be increased/decreased according to a slider bar(moving to right increases it, to left decreases it). As listed below I know how to do it in xaml and it works fine. But my requirement is to be able to create viewbox in code behind and assign it the properties.
<WrapPanel x:Name="_wrpImageButtons" Grid.IsSharedSizeScope="True"
ScrollViewer.CanContentScroll="True" d:LayoutOverrides="Height"
Margin="5">
<Viewbox x:Name="_ScaleButton"
Width="{Binding Value, ElementName=ZoomSlider}" Stretch="Fill">
<CustomButton:_uscVCARSImagesButton x:Name="_btnImage1"/>
</Viewbox>
</WrapPanel>
Thanks.

What Is The Cost Of Hair Transplants In India?
Until a few decades ago, a hair transplant was viewed as a ‘mysterious procedure’ and most people viewed it with a lot of scepticism. They didn’t even know how much a hair transplant costs and assumed that the amount must be way beyond their budget. However, the cost of hair transplants in India are relatively low – as little as 30,000 rupees for a hair transplant surgery.
The low cost of hair transplants is very welcome news for younger men who have started to go bald. In fact, we have seen a rising trend of balding at a young age – especially in urban areas where stress, lifestyle, poor diet, and pollution have caused men in their 20s and 30s to go bald. If you are considering going in for a hair transplant surgery, one of the first things you will have to do is consider the hair transplant costs.
The Cost Of Hair Transplant In India
“The cost of hair transplants in India vary greatly depending on location which is why some people prefer to travel to other cities for their hair transplant procedure.
Hair Transplant costs in India are generally in the range of 30,000 –1,00,000 rupees, inclusive of an initial consultation but excluding medications and postop care. However, many people spend a lot more on their hair transplant costs as they may require more sessions or they may be forced to opt for more expensive procedures because of the extent of their hair loss.
The cost of hair transplants in India can vary greatly depending on your location – this is because the hair transplant cost in Delhi is quite different from the hair transplant cost in Chennai. Similarly, the cost of hair transplants in Mumbai could be very different from the rates in Bangalore or Hyderabad. Because of the vast differences in hair transplant costs across our country, some people prefer to travel to other cities with more affordable IVF treatment plans. Here are indicative costs of hair transplant treatments in various cities in India:
City
Average Cost for Hair Transplant
Mumbai
45,000 – 1,35,000 (35-40 rupees per graft)
Bangalore
35,000 – 1,15,000 (30-35 rupees per graft)
Chennai
30,000 – 50,000 (30-35 rupees per graft)
Delhi
80,000 – 1,20,000 (30-45 rupees per graft)
Nagpur
65,000 – 90,000 (20-35 rupees per graft)
Hyderabad
50,000 – 1,00,000 (25-45 rupees per graft)
Pune
35,000 – 1,00,000

Israel already gets at least $3 billion annually from Washington – plus a whole lot more. US taxpayers fund its killing machine.
It wants a 50% increase for more wars and ruthless daily persecution of millions of Palestinians – plus terror-bombing Syria, Yemen and southern Lebanon at its discretion as well as regional destabilizing activities.
On May 24, Defense News headlined “Israel Seeks Surge in US Security Support,” saying:
“(W)orking bilateral groups have (been) assess(ing) Israel’s projected security needs in (preparing) a new 10-year foreign military financing (FMF) deal” to begin when the current one expires in 2017.
According to an unnamed security source, Israel wants up to $4.5 billion annually besides additional amounts on request, resupplying its killing machine as needed, increasing amounts of US weapons and munitions in Israel for “emergency use,” and nearly $500 million annually for so-called anti-rocket/missile defense.
Washington’s House approved 2016 national defense authorization funding calls for financing an Israeli anti-tunneling defense system to deal with so-called subterranean threats.
Washington is expected to provide Israel with additional billions of dollars of aid if a nuclear deal with Iran is consummated.
Israel’s only enemies are ones it invents. Not according to AIPAC CEO Howard Kohr claiming it may need $160 billion for “defense” through 2025 – a big increase over current budgeted amounts.
Israeli military spending is for offense, not defense. It wants state-of-the-art weapons for maximum killing machine effectiveness.
According to Kohr, US military aid for Israel “is an essential component of America’s national security strategy” – code language for waging imperial wars of conquest and domination.
Earlier in May, the Al Mezan Center for Human Right reported escalated Israeli attacks on Gaza. The IDF fired on border areas at least six times.
They attacked farmers in their fields. Israeli

All of her people, her childhood playmates, her friends, everyone, lay on the ground in deathly stillness.
Saraii, stricken with grief, ran to another one of her good friends, Lan, who was coughing weakly, lying down but trying hard to sit back up.
“Saraii,” she whispered, “why would you do this? We haven’t done anything to you.”
Saraii replied weakly, “What do you mean? I haven’t done a thing.”
“Look at yourself, and you will see.”
Saraii looked down and began to feel lightheaded. Her tan skin had become white, her knuckles bulging, clothes ragged. “What’s happening?” she asked, as a cyclone began to whirl black as pitch around her, and her flute torn from her hand. Music started to emanate from it, echoing ghostly in her ears.
_Welcome, Saraii._ The music had started to take a humanlike form, a phantom woman. She was oddly familiar, Saraii realized. _I have waited for you a long time._ A face she had known since birth, torn away, never to be seen again.
“M-mom? What’s happened?” Saraii felt shaken, lightheaded. “Why are you like this?”
Her mother smiled, but it was a smile full of insanity, not with love and care as Saraii had once remembered. _The government is corrupt, Saraii. They took me away after I refused to give you up. But I overpowered them._ She laughed. _Dictator Maloy is a fool. Come join me, Saraii. Together we will overthrow them. Take my hand._
“No.” Saraii looked up, shaking. “I don’t know you,” she whispered, her voice cracking with despair, “but I don’t want to.” She knew, in her heart, that her mother was gone. That there was only this creature, this _thing,_ in its place.
Saraii gathered her energy, strengthened her resolve, and leaped for the flute. Catching it in her hand, she swung it like a baseball bat at the phantom. It hit it in the head with a _thunk_ sound, and the demon collapsed and was gone. At that second, the winds began to howl more fiercely around her, whipping the oxygen from her lungs, and all went black.
**Several hours later**
Saraii awoke in an unfamiliar place, with her silver flute (still in a battered condition) beside her. Jumping up from her uncomfortable bed, she looked around, taking in her surroundings. She was in something like a prison cell and, unfortunately, she recognized it. It was The Burrow-- a prison for people who had committed bad, bad crimes.
Kay grimly came into the room, and Saraii jumped up. “Kay, what happened? Why am I here?” Kay, said nothing, just roughly gripped her arm and dragged her out. Saraii was starting to have a bad feeling in her gut. “Kay?”
“SILENCE, WITCH!” He yelled. She jumped back in surprise.
“Kay?”
Silence. Saraii lost her temper. “KAY, KINDLY TELL ME WHAT IN ORBONA IS HAPPENING!” Kay said nothing, but dragged her to a stake, placed on a pile of logs. Coldly, he snapped his fingers. The whole village, some in animal form, some in human, roughly grabbed her and tied her to

"Regrettably, there are forces out there that wish to mandate a compulsory, state-imposed education system. And what would be the main objective behind such a mandate? To suppress the beliefs of those, like my wife and myself, who believe in preserving the right to provide our own children a decent, private education at home. Too often, homeschool advocates get caught up in subjective arguments, often pointing to examples that suggest homeschooling is 'more effective' than other forms of education. But I think its dangerous to hinge our general advocacy of homeschool education on notions relating to 'quality' or arguments over which method is 'better' than the next. As I see it, the most fundamental rationale for homeschooling is this: If we don't routinely exercise our liberties, we're doomed to lose them. And that's precisely why my wife and I homeschool our children— so that our children's right to a home education, and our freedom to provide it, won't inadvertently be lost on account of our own general apprehensiveness to exercise true independence in such matters. The only way any of us will ever perfect our independence is to develop the habit of putting it into practice."

and I could feel the warmth of my joy filling the room. This was quickly doused, though. In the second he would have said it, he shook his head and rubbed his eyes and muttered, “God, I’m fucking crazy,” lied back down, and pulled the throw blanket over his eyes.
Now, as he watched cars fly by and the gas gauge tick higher, I wondered if my half-perceived presence, my frantic, hopeless plea, echoed in his head like the last threads of memory from the delirium of fever. _You will never see me again,_ I had said. Standing alone in the cold under the dark sky, cloaked in thick, sticky silence, heavy with guilt, I was sure that he knew, and that he was counting the hours until he had to face this inevitable fact.
When he got on the road at long last, he drove like he did when he was sixteen and had a cop in the next seat. He turned off his radio, drove exactly the speed limit the whole way, checked all his mirrors, and otherwise sat perfectly still, staring straight ahead. Wrapped around the steering wheel, his knuckles were white, and lines of tension and veins trailed up his forearm, complementing the tautness running through his jaw, neck, and shoulders.
Jade had always borne things silently, stoically. He could make himself ill over guilt and stress. When he got kicked out of school, he was in bed for a week, head pounding and stomach roiling, until at last his old band-mates kicked his door open, dragged him out of bed, and told him to stop jerking off and get his GED. Now, the first prodding fingers of migraine were creeping up his spinal column into the base of his head and down into his uneasy stomach, and before he had even gotten halfway up the freeway, he had cracked all four windows, letting the cold autumn air pour in like a deluge. It welled up around him, flooding his lungs, sticking like shards of ice in his knuckles. I knew that when he finally climbed out of his car in Adam’s driveway, his tension would be roiling in his stomach and pounding behind his eyes.
In the mean time, though, he breathed deeply: in and out, through the nose, out the mouth. Breathing was the only tiny bit of yoga that she had ever been able to instill in him. I had always gotten on his case about it, elbowing him in the ribs with a cruel half-smile, asking when he was going to put on his stretchy pants and light his incense and fold himself into quarters, and honestly, I was probably half the reason he never picked it up. As much as it scalds me to admit that she had been right about anything, though, it would have been good for him. No more tension headaches and stiff necks and becoming ill; he could breathe and bend, and with every ‘om’ and exhalation, a little bit of her—a little bit of me—would cease to torment

Q:
Where to find information on SOAP/XML queries for Microsoft Dynamics CRM API
I'm working on a project for a client that wants to integrate their web site (built in PHP) with their Microsoft hosted Dynamics CRM 2011.
I've found a great resource here for connecting to the Dynamics server and pulling very basic information out of the database (contact / accounts):
-> http://www.21logs.com/php-and-microsoft-dynamics-crm-source-code/
I spent a bunch of time today looking for information on the other types of SOAP/REST queries that I would need to use to either pull more information or add/update information in the database and I came up pretty snake-eyes.
If anyone knows of a resource that has some additional XML example queries for playing around with Dynamics CRM data it would be much appreciated.
A:
This will give you all the info constructing FetchXML queries
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms936573.aspx
And if you are interested in the FetchXML schema
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms955990.aspx
A:
While it isn't technically the repository of information that I was originally looking for, I did find the following blog post
-> http://www.zenithies.org/articles/1/connect-to-microsoft-dynamics-crm-4-0-web-service-from-php-using-ifd-authentication.html
Which lead me to this : http://www.zenithies.org/articles/articles/6/microsoft-dynamics-crm-4-0-php-integration-offer.html
Zenithies offers a PHP class for sale for a reasonable price (i.e. way less than I could have charged a client to research & write the same code) that lets you connect to Dynamics CRM using PHP and perform contact adds, edits and searches.
Nothing too complicated but everything I needed

Cell area and different shape descriptors were calculated with ImageJ software (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij) analyzing at least 50 welldistinct cells, acquired with an inverted optical microscope (Nikon Eclipse Ti). In particular, the solidity (S), circularity (C), and roundness (R) of cells were investigated according to the following equations: 24
Roundness R a b = =(1)
where a and b are the width and length of the minimum bounding (the smallest rectangle enclosing the selection), respectively,
Circularity C A P = = 4 2 π (2)
where P is the perimeter and A is the cell area, and
Solidity S A ConvexA = = (3)
where ConvexA is the area enclosed by the smallest shell that borders all the points of the cell.
Nanoparticle-internalization analysis
NP internalization has been investigated by a multimodal microscope with an in-plane resolution of approximately 300 nm and a resolution of 1 µm along the optical axis. Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) has been exploited to obtain images of cells, based on a degenerate pump-and-probe beam (PaPB) created by a Ti-Sa pulsed laser (Chameleon Vision II; Coherent) and a supercontinuum generator (photonic crystal fiber SCG-800; Newport) that produces a broadband Stokes beam. The beams were chirped through their transmission by two SF 6 glass blocks -a 10 cm-long one for the PaPB, and a 15 cm-long one for the Stokes radiation -in order to optimize the spectral resolution. For the excitation of CH 2 bonds at a Raman shift of 2,850 cm -1 and thus for the cell imaging, we adjusted the delay between the PaPB and the Stokes beam. For the localization of BTNPs, an 806 nm PaPB was combined with Stokes photons producing a sum-frequency generation (SFG) signal from BTNPs at approximately 452 nm. The images were subject to analysis with ImageJ software, and the amount of BTNP internalization was calculated as the ratio of the area occupied by the NPs inside the cells and the total cell area, on at least 50 cells for each experimental treatment.
Quantitative real-time reversetranscription polymerase chain reaction
Quantitative real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to investigate the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) transcription of osteogenesis-marker genes (runt related transcription factor 2 [RUNX2], collagen type I alpha-1 [COL1A1], and alkaline phosphatase [ALPL]) and of RHOA (Ras homolog gene family, member A), which regulates osteogenesis-activating RUNX2 following mechanical stimulation. 25 After the experimental procedures, cells were trypsinized and centrifuged, and the total RNA was extracted from the samples with the High Pure RNA Isolation Kit (Roche) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The quantity and purity of RNA was verified through spectrophotometric analysis (NanoDrop; Thermo Scientific). Thereafter, complementary deoxyribonucleic acid was obtained from the reverse transcription of 100 ng of RNA through iScript™ Reverse Transcription Supermix (Bio-Rad). The following protocol was used for the retrotranscription: 25°C for 5 minutes, 42°C for 45 minutes, 48°C for 15 minutes, and finally 85°C for 5 minutes. The amplification was carried out on the CFX Connect™ Real-Time PCR Detection System (Bio-Rad) thermocycler with the SsoAdvanced™ SYBR ® Green Supermix (Bio-Rad). The temperature steps for the

Ayn Rand has to be one of the most verbose yet immature philosophers I've come upon. She seems to fit the classic definition of a psychopath, as her "philosophy", objectivism, amounts to little more than a "do what you feel if it benefits you" and "greed is good" mantra.
There is nothing of value in her works if you are one of those people who consider themselves to have morals, even if you're not a religious person.
Although it has a really good sound, the audio is captured in the same stereo channel, fortunately you can separate the channels in post and mute the one you want or clean, because one is on the left side and the other on the right side, especially if you want to use it for only one speaker and have to mute one of the channel in post because it could noisy if no one is using it or if you have two speakers and want to use noise gates, you'll need to convert the stereo signal into two mono channels in order to do it correctly.
Very Good
This was a good edition to the series. I enjoyed it very much. Can't wait for the next one.
Streaked right out of the box. Probably should return it. I will consider a different brand next. Maybe I will try Rain x latitude
Very reasonalbly priced and a good product. Would recommend it to everyone as it meets or exceeds any other brand.
Not to heavy. Fit just right. Will purchase again if I need more.
I worn them about 3 or 4 times before BOTH tips came off the heels within about an hour of each other. They are extremely poorly made and not worth what I paid for them. At this point I'm faced with spending almost as much to retip them as I did to buy them. More likely, I'll throw them away and never purchase from Rampage again.
I love these! They even keep my feet warm.
As a busy mom of three active teenagers, I deeply appreciate this delightful cookbook full of kid approved meals which are accompanied by beautiful pictures.
My only request would be that the ipad kindle version would have category headings to make finding recipes easier.
This is a great short story about a chance encounter between the main character, walking in the woods near his cabin, and a hobo warming his beans in the woods, who turned out to be much more than a hobo.
There was one typo: devine => divine

the PRT building, and those engage new triggers or minor supervillains (teens who're stealing etc), have to be approachable. That's why police don't walk around in riot gear 24/7, because they would look scary, not like the neighborhood guardian.
I'm also not a football fan, so I don't really care. Ignoring that, I did know there was some kind of game, but I still don't know the significance of the game, or what even occurs at this game. Also didn't know about the NFL players (again, doesn't interest me), or that it was free. My family came to walk around Rutgers Day events, and they also weren't interested in the game, although my parents did know there was a game.
This is just what i wanted to hear i hope more come and tell me tales of their fun. Stuck at work and 7.0 has me so hyped and after faction changing my mage im so ready for Legion! and here i had thought wow was dead but i was just bored of Trashcans of turdlord
I can't be bothered to read these ~500 comments. In short though, I think a far greater risk that "uneducated" people breeding is elitism and egocentric thinking. If your lifestyle is happy and fulfilling thanks to the decisions you made, surely others are allowed to make decisions too, like having kids? Asshat.
Other people have said this better, but I thought I'd throw my two cents in. You should definitely consider asking him to leave, and keeping the group going with whoever remains behind. Right now I'm running a campaign for three players, and because of scheduling, it's rare that all three can make it. Most of the time our sessions have two PCs, and I've run a few sessions with just one. Working with a smaller group definitely poses some challenges, but it can also be a lot of fun, and it's easier to get everyone involved than with a larger group. From the way you described the world, and the effort you've put into creating it, it sounds like your game is rich enough to be rewarding no matter the number of players. If it ends up being easier to just walk away, there's nothing wrong with that - it's better to keep your sanity intact than to lose it trying to salvage the game. But you should at least consider keeping it going.

sentence and remembering how much I disliked The Reivers, I decided Faulkner is just not my thing.
There are no villains here, just people, living their lives, making the mistakes we all make, and looking for love. All the action centers around Lillian's restaurant, her sous-chef Chloe and dishwasher Finnegan, Lillian's bereaved lover Tom, Lillian's stuck-in-a-hopeless marriage accountant Al, Al's angry wife Louise, and Chloe's Alzheimer's affected roommate Isabelle.
All Finnegan knew, and all he wanted to know, was that he was loved without question.
But no one here is, or not at first. Lillian and Isabelle and Chloe and Al are all children of divorce, Finnegan's parents put him second fiddle to Mount Everest, and Louise is a thin stick of ironed-hair dynamite who keeps prodding Al to light her fuse. But Lillian always has her kitchen and the art and wonder and comfort of food.
[Lillian]...tried to fit the lunches to the financial season--more calming scents during tax preparation months, a little more exciting in the summer, when most clients were off on vacation, spending the money Al helped them save the rest of the year. The pickle today might have been a miscalculation, she thought, a bit too much picnic atmosphere just when people should be working hard to meet that April deadline.
In the end, everyone gets what they want, with caveats, of course, because isn't that how life is? A nice read.
Finished this book in just 1 day and WOW. WHAT A GOOD READ IT WAS.
I got hooked from the very beginning of the book till' the very end. NO KIDDING. I didn't knew I was going to enjoyed this book THAT MUCH. It was uh-mazing. It kept me turning the pages and not wanting to put the book down. Well done, author.
This book deserves 5 shining gold stars. I would highly recommend it to everyone. Definitely worth reading and worth every penny. And also..,
Tears.
P/S: Yeah, tears. I cried.
Okay, bye now.
I love this series for several reasons. It takes place in my home state, just a few hours down the road. It contains unique and quirky characters who still come across as "real" to me. The author's landscape descriptions are so vivid and beautiful! Every story reveals a new layer that I enjoy pulling back!
I need to start paying better attention to these free books I get because once again it was a short story to be continued. I'm just gonna end it there. Wasn't enough for me to continue with the story. No excitement, no nothing just blah.
At times, this book is fragmented, much like the author's life. That said, it's a very interesting look at survival, identity, and where the bonds of family do and don't connect.
I watched the movie without any expectation, and I was surprised that I enjoyed the movie a lot even though people criticizing its pace, story, etc. Maybe the reason is the nostalgia effect, the uncommon hero (I am bored with the usual smart and snob hero archetype), and adorable acting of Eddie Redmayne.

impressed at the same time. The smell was fucking hideous and for the first time in a long time, Hancock had to resist the urge to gag. Those warehouses were always kind of humid on the inside, so the bodies were already starting to rot, and fast. There were bodies scattered all across the floor, draped over boxes, slumped against the cabinet. All of them had been brutally beaten, either by several hits to the torso or a hit or two to the head. As the trio moved to the stairs, he saw a triggerman’s body at the bottom of it. Judging by the blood smear going down the steps, he’d been shoved down after he got his just deserts. Couldn’t tell who the guy was, though, as his face had been thoroughly smashed to the point where it wasn’t even remotely looking like a face. Not far from the guy’s hand was a baseball bat, covered in blood, likely from rolling around in its previous owner’s as it went tumbling down the stairs.
“Who the hell could’ve done this? These guys were armed! With guns!” the drifter babbled. “How the hell do you take on this many people without gettin’ yaself filled with lead?” She gasped. “You don’t think it was that vaulty, was it?”
Three hundred fucking sixty days. He fell back against his pillow with a dulled thud. He wondered why the council thought superheroes only needed three sick days in a whole year. He then bitterly wondered why he hadn't been born with a superpower that could actually cheat the system. Like mind-control or time manipulation. Fucking three hundred sixty days.
Kyungsoo then checked his alarm clock distractedly. And there it was, he was right: it was bloody three fucking thirty-three, the skies outside were darker than his entire wardrobe (he only wore black clothes), and he really couldn't care less for brainless citizens who'd be up at this ungodly hour.
"Do Kyungsoo," Baekhyun prompted again, tacitly competing with Kyungsoo's level of irritation.
Kyungsoo pretended he couldn't hear, but in the next second, his agent was pulling him out of his bed by his feet, and Kyungsoo was reluctantly dragged across the floor, his nails digging into the carpet, his face buried into its texture.
Moments later, at perhaps three fifty something in the morning, he was standing on the top of a building, face-to-face with an arsonist with a smoky disposition whom somehow only Kyungsoo could protect the city from. The skies were pitch black, the breeze was mild, fire surrounded them, and Kyungsoo had a wedgie. What a promising day.
"D.O. Flamingo," Smoker said in his deep husky voice as he ran a hand through his ashy silver hair. His figure was as handsome as ever, and his attire so casual and simple it hurt Kyungsoo's pride.
Not that Kyungsoo was wearing some obnoxious spandex costume with mismatched hues – thankfully. But sometimes Smoker's apparel was so nice, Kyungsoo wished his designer had a better sense of fashion just so Kyungsoo could be able to compete

What if, say, I have a Rails bug tracking solution container that needs Ruby, Apache, Passenger and Postgresql? Do those things add up if there are other containers with their own copies of those services?
If we are talking about wars, off the top of my head only Caesar taking Gaul would have an argument for more important . The immediate fallout of that war changed the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. In terms of events, the Black Death has to take the cake. Between a third and half of Europe's population died in a relatively short period of time.
Late to the party, I know, but a few games back my group's bard decided that he wanted to buy a new magical instrument that he could play. Unfortunately he was short of funds, so he dressed himself in womens clothing and used his charm to sell his body on the streets for about six nights. It became known to my party as the 'Six Nights of Debauchery' and sometimes we learn of encounters our bard had during the six nights with random NPCs in the village. His hooker name was chocolate.
That quote doesn't make any sense. When you quit believing you are not denying "him" or Jesus, you are accepting the fact that there is no soul, no god, and no afterlife. You cease being a Christian so it would be impossible to deny Jesus considering he is dead, and has no soul. There is nothing to deny. If anything you come to terms with your own ability to do good and bad without needing someone to tell you how to live your life.
Hey, so I moved from Clinique Moisture Surge Intense gel moisturizer to the Neutrogena Hydro Boost for extra dry skin, and those two were comparable to me. Before I found the Hydro Boost, Clinique's Moisture Surge Intense was my HG (NOT the 72 hours one, I tried that and it wasn't as hydrating). Maybe a take a look at the ingredients? The big downside to the Clinique one is obviously the price. :(
Okay, but Nidalee doesn't become un-targetable and go back to near-half health from ~0 in the meantime. I mean she can heal but that has a target-able, stationary cast time and she would still need to change forms (another cast time) in order to execute Kog. I'm not saying you're wrong, it's just a poor comparison. I also don't think Yasuo is really that underpowered, especially in a competitive setting. In Solo-q I would agree it's hard to fit him in however.

it really matter what we ask
them to write about?
3. Do we need to design a rating scale? Can't we just give the great
papers 100, good papers 90, fairly good papers 80, etc.? Would a scale
help us make things better and briefly how do you make one?
4. What are portfolios and can we use them effectively to assess
students' writing ability?
5. What is the future of writing assessment? Will technology help in
some way?

Hi. We have a client that has 2 operators and they are inserted in a line
group with a hunt pilot [not an AC Pilot] in order to reach them TopDown.. We
installed the Attendant Console version 1.4(1 ES11) in the first operator
because she would like to see line states of other phones and everytime a
calls come in it shows up in the Console fine but when the CCM takes the call
back in order to send it to the 2nd operator because of RNA I received a
message on the Attendant Console saying:
Failed to make a new call.
And we didn't make a new call at all... Any ideas?
CallManager version is 4.1(3)sr3a. I already restarted the TCD service in both
callmanagers but the problem continues.. I will probably open a TAC case but
was wondering if someone got the same problem before.
Thanks in advanced,

Hi,
I was trying to create a thread using pthread_create() in one of the dynamic mib extension file,
to listen on 60000 port.
I had ran it in two ways,
1. one with foreground option - (./snmpd -c snmpd.conf -Lsd -f)
This point thread creation was successful.
2. one with deamon(without -f) option - (./snmpd -c snmpd.conf -Lsd)
No thread got created.
This issue I haven't observed with NetSNMP 5.4.2.1 version.
It would be very helpful, if you can provide any info on this issue.
Thanks,

Dear GMXers,
I want to use tabulated interaction functions for bonds and angles. According to the manual, f(x) and f'(x) should be computed as functions of x in spacing distance of dx. For bonds, the spacing distance can be set as 0.002 (in single precision) at default. But for angles, what shoud be set for the spacing distance? Please give me some hints. Thanks a lot for your attention!
Sincerely,
The recent patch to template endblocks to allow an identifier is nice
(Tickets #3351, #4489), but it may lead the unwary to think that the
parser is actually using the identifiers to make sure your start and
end blocks line up correctly.
It may be worthwhile to add a short comment to the documentation
hinting that the identifiers are only to help make your template code
more readable and are not checked for matching consistency by the
parser.

an incredulous look, but he’s unable to keep the smile from tugging at the edges of his mouth. “Can’t you listen to me?”
Nursey is doing a terrible job of stifling his laughter. “I dunno dude, I don’t think I speak lobster?”
He’s referring to the beautifully painful sunburn Dex had managed to get on his face, ears, back of his neck, arms up to where his t-shirt sleeves rested, and his calves. The three frogs had gone on an excursion the day before walking through town to a park on the other side. They spent the afternoon there, throwing a frisbee around or just sitting in the grass. It had been a gorgeous day, mid seventies and sunny. And Dex had completely forgotten to apply sunscreen.
When Dex arrived to the Haus the next day, completely red and flinching when anyone got anywhere near him, as well as when he moved certain ways. Nursey and Chowder were chirping him relentlessly, and the rest of the team got in on it too. But now Nursey and Dex were on the couch, Dex with his laptop out but forgotten and Nursey turned towards him with a knee up on the couch to watch and chirp him.
Dex sighs. “Dude, come on.”
Nursey gives him a toothy grin before letting it recede. “Alright, fine, what?”
Dex shakes his head with an eye roll. “One, I need you to edit a paper for my english class before twelve tonight, and two…” He purses his lips for a moment and looks down, knowing he’s going to get chirped for the next request. “Do you think you could run to CVS and get me some aloe vera?” He doesn’t risk a glance up at Nursey. “I’ve already asked Bitty if he has any, and he said he doesn’t and that Holster doesn’t either because he used the last of his up the other week. And these actually really hurt…” He states, reminding himself not to lean back on the couch because the last time he did, it dug right into the burn on his neck. He risks a glance at Nursey then.
His teammate is looking back at him, that stupid half lidded gaze on, but it looks soft. His small smile looks soft too. Dex’s breath catches slightly. “Yeah dude,” Nursey starts, shrugging as if Dex’s request was the easiest thing in the world. “You might look like you rolled around in a strawberry patch, but I don’t wanna see you in pain.” He gets up, fixing his hat.
Dex lets out a slightly relieved sigh. “Thank you dude, lemmy give you some money-“ He stops halfway through the sentence and halfway through reaching for his wallet, which his skin adamantly protested, when Nursey held up his hand.
“Nah bro. I got you covered. I’ll be back soon.” They both turn their heads when they hear Holster should something inaudible in the attic and Ransom begin to match his volume. “And you might wanna head to your dorm to finish that essay. I’ll meet you there?”

that outcome to occur. You could think of it as God having a contingency plan for every eventuality based on what humanity would do. We killed Jesus and God being God knew we’d fuck that up and made sure it worked out. That’s why I’m saying it’s our fault. You’re looking at it as though God made some Rube Goldberg machine to bring about a specific outcome; God forcing His will on us. I’m looking at it as God responding, in all possible instances, to the choices of men, to bring about a specific outcome in spite of our choices. We are imposing ourselves on God, much like a child makes demands of their parents. And like a good parent who wants the best possible outcome for their child, God makes it work.
>Oh, is this based off a website promising you could register to vote online, EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT YOU CANNOT REGISTER TO VOTE ONLINE IN THE STATE OF TEXAS! -edit- Apparently digital signatures are valid in the state of Texas and I retract my statement there. The issue is they faxed the documents and didn't send original within 4 days. Once again, the whole thing is stupid and we need to update the process in which we can register to vote but they did it wrong.
If I were you I'd hang back. I have a hunch we won't wait another 4 years, the fanbase will just disintegrate if that happens. No way it can stay for 8 bloody years, and they can't play the movie card any more so they will most likely make us wait 12-18 months im betting. Though the decision is yours of course

blossoming undergrad culture. It prides itself on research and helping academically-motivated kids get their moneys worth. Berkeley could care less about "college experience." Are you a humanities major with no interest in business or law? Fuck you. Are you transfer? Fuck you harder. Honestly, the best friends I have made at Berkeley have been people I met in my hall who feel exactly the same way as I do and some coworkers. Berkeley's workload/scheduling/dispersed student population make it a difficult place to meet people. Have friends that live on northside but you live on southside? You'll see them about 4 times a semester (if you're lucky). Have friends that aren't in your exact major? Oh wait, all of your friends have different majors? No one will ever be able to coordinate schedules. My advice? Don't care about what other people are doing. Some of your friends from UCLA post pictures of some house party with lots of good looking people? Don't worry about it. Three of your best friends who go to UCSB post a video of them having drunken great time? Call them up and talk about it but don't be jealous (this example is obviously pretty personal, but still). Berkeley does not offer a traditional college experience but it offers something else: proximity to the bay. There are so many cool things to do here that if you haven't ventured deep in SF or Oakland then you are doing Berkeley wrong. Find a couple cool people and visit Japantown in SF. Have a picnic at Tilden. If someone you know has a car then hike Mt. Tam. Eat at one of the many great places to eat in Oakland. Also, get into live music. The bay is crazy good for big name and low key shows. The Fox, The Greek, Great American Music Hall, (and if you're into electronic) Public Works, 1015 Folsom, Mezzanine, Audio Discotech to name a few. For the most part, my experience of Berkeley has been a means to an end. I am not happy with this (or saying this is the best way to do it) but it is reality. I want to end this rant on a happy note (by saying something cheesy like "Oh and I am better off because of it! Though the Berkeley experience is nontraditional, isn't that just what the true Berkeleyan seeks, to break away from tradition?") but I can't really will myself to do it. More and more I hear people admit that Berkeley just isn't/wasn't for them. Once the allure of "BEST PUBLIC SCHOOL IN THE WORLD! WOOHOO!" wears off and you realize that what makes a college "best" for the individual is something that you feel in your gut and not something you read in an article, then the Berkeley experience becomes a disappointment. Ehh, I don't know what else to say. Sorry for the rant, I am procrastinating writing an essay. I am sure someone will read this and disagree with me point by point but (disclaimer!) this has been mine and many of my

in non-English speaking countries. So like I said, assuming that there's at least one person that will understand English and blurting out English to random people until one understands you, like Tip did, is kind of counterintuitive (and let's be honest, annoying) imo. I lived in the US for the majority of my life so when I go back to Korea, people are like "omg so you can speak English?!?!?!"
I did a review course through ONS and bought a book of OCN questions off Amazon. I would have passed without either, to be honest. Brush up on BMT if you're not familiar with that. The test was much easier than I anticipated. Good luck! 😊
The total trade between US and China in 2014 was about $590 billion USD and US debt held by China is about $1.26 TRILLION USD. The trade relationship is important but doesn't dwarf the debt relationship. Edit: I reread your comment and realize I missed your point, but even if there are temporary divergences between perceived health of the US economy and US bond prices, the long term trends to equilibrium. The health of the US economy is the basis for any yield on bonds. Edit2: Thank you u/patatepowa05 for pointing out a million where a billion belonged.
Doesn’t surprise me. 10 years ago I was all over Android, only switched with the iPhone 4. I was younger and modding my phone, PC, Playstation was something everyone did in my circle of friends. Forward 10 years and I can’t be fussed about doing it. I don’t mod anything, really no fun in it anymore. Still love watching YouTube videos where other people do it (LGR as an example).
I'm looking for an app, or any way, to write and edit equations for a maths report for college. Our tutor demonstrated equation editor in Word on his laptop but the Pages app and Word app don't have this capability. I've found some apps that allow me to handwrite the equations and save them as images but they only seem to handle single lines so results in a very laborious process to make any large equations. It would be great if the app also had a way of formatting the equation; for instance, aligning all the text down the line of equals signs. Anyone know of anything like this? Thanks!
Yeah I think I can relate. I was considering making a post kinda similar to this one to try to find help or advice. It seems like no matter what I do, I always have low self esteem and I think it stems from a mixture of big ego and some bad experiences in childhood. I have a bunch of hobbies that I love, I have a job that I like, I work out regularly and think I look ok, I have a girlfriend, I go to school and always do really well, I like my apartment and my car, I think I dress well and like my clothes, I eat a decent diet... but I am still horribly anxious and insecure

their states and expect people to know all about it. Lots of time is spent explaining different states - a bit in a way Europeans talk about different countries 2) Cartoons, superheros and theme parks are legitimate parts of grown-up culture. In Europe they are mostly for children 3) Peanut butter is considered a healthy snack by some 4) The school system encourages a lot of presentations and speeches, so in foreign offices and universities Americans stand out as being really outspoken. 5) US-Americans actually monopolize the term American all for their country ;)
100/100 seems pretty slow for 40 people. I would contact their business team, not residential team, to get something faster. $675 seems crazy high for only 100/100. Check out - https://business.comcast.com/t/business-internet or see if you can shop around to Verizon or other ISPs to get true fiber where you can get speeds closer to 500/500 or 2Gbps/2Gbps with Comcast Gigabit Pro.
What happens next. You never know what’s going to happen next in your life. Maybe you meet someone who will become your best friend forever. Maybe a new show comes out that you love or maybe a political uprising happens and you go on an adventure. Just seeing how life changes is enough to keep me going among other things.
Thanks for the suggestions Nazenn! I've never done a large mod like this so I'd have to figure out some of those proper modding techniques. As far as additional stuff to do, I have the following ideas: Like above, make an optional additional survival experience. Include stuff like fatigue, hunger, thirst, cold and more aggressive wild animals. You'll have to find or hunt for food and water. Build shelters, fire or use a bedroll to stay warm. Players can establish a base campsite like a player home after accumulating the resources to build it. The Long Dark is probably the closest thing I could think of to this, as I don't want combat to be a huge part of it. Another idea would be to keep it as more of a calm exploration, hiking simulator. Maybe add challenges to the game and the player can complete the challenges by climbing certain mountains, swimming in certain lakes, finding certain caves, collecting certain flowers, hunting certain animals, etc. Or on the matter of challenges for hunting certain animals, it could maybe be a hunting simulator.
Like the title says, I recently got into Diamond. However I did not expect the amount of toxic messages I would get from people. What I have learnt is, In Diamond, You are NEVER allowed to have a bad game.. Not one.. If you have even close to a negative KD by the end of your game... You are either A fake diamond, carried to Diamond, A disgrace to Diamond. Ect. I knew people could be Toxic in this game, Had no clue it was this bad.

PREFACE.
Mr. Jefferson having, by his last will and testament, bequeathed to
his grandson, Thomas Jefferson Randolph, all his manuscript papers,
Congress, by an act of the 12th of April, 1848, made an appropriation
for the purpose of purchasing them for the Government; and, by the
same act, an additional appropriation was made to print and publish
them under the direction and supervision of the Joint Committee on
the Library. It is under the authority of this act that the present
publication is made. The immense mass of manuscript left by Mr.
Jefferson having been deposited with the Editor, he has carefully gone
through the whole, and selected from it, for the present publication,
everything which possesses permanent public interest either on account
of its intrinsic value, or as matter of history, or as illustrating
the character of the distinguished Author, or as embodying his views
upon the almost infinite variety of topics, philosophical, moral,
religious, scientific, historical, and political, so ably discussed
by him--thus making this work a complete depository of the writings
of Thomas Jefferson. Under the view which the Editor has taken of his
editorial duties, and the instructions of the Library Committee, he has
not felt himself at liberty to encumber the publication with matter of
his own farther than is necessary to illustrate the text. Such notes as
have been appended will, therefore, be found to be purely explanatory
and historical in their character. Under the impression that the value
of such publications as the present depends much upon facility of
reference, a particular Index has been appended to each volume as well
as a general Index to the whole.

difference in perception towards e-learning effectiveness between lecturers in private and public universities LITERATURE REVIEW Shraim and Zuheir (2010) explored the potential of e-learning methods in a conflict situation with mobility restrictions to enhance the educational process and to provide continuous learning for secondary schools' students in Palestine. The study findings revealed that much as both teachers and students might not be ready for e-learning, their attitudes towards the usefulness of e-learning methods were positive. The factors identified as necessary for e-learning adoption include among others: pre-training in e-learning methodologies like the ability to use forums, chats, and virtual meetings, course design, institutional support, and the usability of the e-learning system. Shraim and Zuheir (2010) suggestions on factors to promote readiness for e-learning adoption are not very different to researchers like (Uys et al., 2011) that advocate for the integration of e-learning needs in an institution's strategic framework. (Wu et al., 2018) explored the effectiveness of using adaptive e-learning with dynamic scaffoldings and rubrics in fostering students' learning outcomes. The study adopted an experimental research design with both a pre-test and a post-test. The results revealed that the developed adaptive e-learning system can effectively support students with personalized learning materials that enabled them to acquire knowledge and more cognitive abilities. They recommended an e-learning environment that puts the learner at the centre of all instruction and is able to adapt to the individual differences among learners. The ease with which private or public universities can adapt a given e-learning system to the learners' differences is more likely to explain the differences in perception towards e-learning effectiveness of the various groups of students. Xu and Ebojoh (2007) studied how assessment and delivery methods influence the effectiveness of the online program, the benefits, and constraints experienced in e-learning using a sample of faculty and staff involved in online programmes. The study setting was in a sub-Urban town located in the USA. Their study followed a qualitative approach and a case study with phenomenological design to understand the several experiences from the participants experience while interacting with online and distance learning programmes. The delivery method is singled out among the factors that either frustrate or motivate the learners on the e-learning program. Good delivery methods are more interactive and student-focused while poor delivery methods delay student feedback and promote increased social isolation. The use of various e-tools that promote increased interaction like e-chats, video conferencing, and discussion forums make e-learning more popular and acceptable to both students and lecturers. This presupposes that before e-learning is fully implemented, students and lecturers need to be trained in e-learning methodologies. However, the adoption of e-learning in many universities in Uganda had not been pre-imagined but rather became the obvious option to continue learning in times of the government imposed Covid-19 lockdown Hussain et al. (2018) studied student engagement predictions in an e-learning system and their impact on student course assessment scores. The input variables used were the highest level of education, final results, assessment scores, and the number of clicks on the e-platform. The output variable was the

on reparations as a matter of financial compensation in the report various initiatives at the UN level including the CARICOM call for reparatory justice moves Way Beyond the conception of reparations as a matter of financial compensation there is no financial compensation for 500 years of enslavement and colonialism and what most of us are calling for is a systemic and structural transformation a recent report by the UN permanent Forum on people of African descent which was sent to the Human Rights Council and general assembly also called for repetitive Justice mckitrain said to address the lasting consequences of these histories in terms of inequities structural and systemic injustices lack of equal enjoyment of human dignity and rights that will include financing but the point is not the financial compensation but the structural and systemic transformation the secretary General's report concluded that states should consider a plurality of measures to address the legacies of enslavement and colonialism including pursuing Justice and reparations and contributing to reconciliation a leading U.N judge stated recently that the UK would no longer be able to ignore the growing calls for reparation for transatlantic slavery in April the Prime Minister Rishi sunak refused to apologize for the UK's role in the slave trade or to commit to paying reparations judge Patrick Robinson who presided over the trial of the Former Yugoslav president slobodon maluvi said the international tide on slavery reparations was shifting and called on the UK to change its stance Robinson said I believe that the UK will not be able to resist this movement towards the payment of reparations it is required by history and it is required by law foreign

GETTY Acting PM Mariano Rajoy is facing the prospect of another general election
Political rivals have refused to form a coalition with the centre-right People's Party following inconclusive general elections in December and June. And with a third general election in less than a year appearing likely, MEP Fernando Maura has said Spain is starting to "disappear" from the EU. Congressmen Jose Ramon Garcia Hernandez added: "It seems irresponsible to me. Either we are at the height of the challenges or our citizens will suffer."
This is very positive, but it is not enough Mariano Rajoy
Despite the crisis, acting prime minister Mariano Rajoy is expected to be present at a major meeting of EU leaders in Slovakia next month. Mr Rajoy, the People's Party leader, yesterday announced he would do all he could to form a coalition with the socialist party PSOE. He said: "We've managed to collect 170 seats in Congress so that Spain can have a government. This is very positive, but it is not enough."
GETTY Stubborn PSOE leader Pedro Sanchez has so far refused to join a coalition
And taking aim at stubborn PSEO leader Pedro Sanchez, he said: "I've already got 170 people who support me. Do you want to repeat elections?” Mr Rajoy faces a crucial confidence vote in parliament this week but has won the support of Ciudadanos, Spain's fourth-largest party. If he loses Wednesday's vote, a second vote will take place on Friday where a simple majority would allow him to form a government.

the country and South Korea's emergence as a major world economy, and the book achieved that goal. It wasn't a spectacular book, but it was informative.
It's really like 2.5 stars because if all the errors. total disappointment in the fact that there were so many errors in spelling and words. the characters weren't that great with only subpar banter. also it was so short, just ridiculously rushed.
Even though this doesn't hit the emotional high marks of Code Name Verity (really, what can?), Elizabeth Wein's writing is so strong and alive. It just didn't all work quite as well as a whole as I wanted. The collecting Em's writings for the Ethiopian emperor felt too contrived, but there were still moments of revelation later in the story that made me gasp. Besides her amazing ability to dole out information at the perfect pace, she creates gorgeous descriptions of vast beauty of Ethiopia, particularly from the air. I loved that she is introducing readers to little-known parts of history and makes them accessible through her portrayals of strong friendships that sustain her characters when everything around them is falling apart.
Cute book. This is one of Ms. Chase's earlier books and I definitely enjoyed it better than the last couple. The writing alone is worth the 4 stars, but the plot is a good one. Lillith and Julian are perfectly written as older, wiser guides to the younger couple of Robert and Cecily. I wasn't thrilled at the plot that had Lillian blaming Julian for her husband's death for awhile, but I think it came together pretty well at the end.
I really like Robert's transformation and it was nice that Cecily wasn't the typical brain-dead debutante that seems to populate regencies. I also liked that Lillith was so kind to her nieces and intended to continue helping them. Her engagement was a little bit of a distraction, but I'm glad that Ms. Chase didn't villify Thomas. I was a little surprised that Julian offered Elise a chance to go with him to France when he was supposedly in love with Lillith. It may have been the author's attempt to show that Julian had no intention of staying in England with Lillith married, but I think it also showed a little bit of cowardice on his part. Why wouldn't he stay and fight?
The last scene where Lillith confronts Julian is how more novels should end. Reminded me of a good old-fashioned Georgette Heyer novel. Air is cleared...everyone loves each other...over! No epilogue, no last-minute sex scene, just done. Perfect.
Daniel Tammet is quite amazing! To be clear, he does not have autism. He has Asperger's and is a savant, which is why he is so remarkable. He can function and is independent. This guy can learn a language in a week and memorized the numbers of Pi up to 22,000 or something in no time. Crazy! His brain just works totally different than most.

this one even though I'm terrible at figuring out the clues given along the way. Authors like O'Hare make us think like a real detective as we follow along with the characters in the story. I have to admit that I didn't connect the title with any sort of religious element, but it does hold a prominent place in the story. Important figures in Belfast are being murdered, the bodies left naked and posed in grotesque shapes. The scenes are forensically immaculate. Chief Inspector Sheehan and his team must figure out how these victims are linked, what is the connection between the killings, the Bible and the medieval painting The Last Judgement?
The character building was excellent here. I felt I had a real look into the minds of these people as they struggled through a difficult case, especially Sheehan. I noticed a few reviewers compared this piece to the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, but personally I thought this was much better. I couldn't get through Brown's novel, but had no problem here. It held my interest from start to finish. The scenes are also well described, brought to life in my mind. I like to picture myself there when I'm reading, much like playing a movie in my mind. If I'm not given enough from the author, it makes for a boring and dull story. That wasn't a problem here.
Points I didn't like so much. Okay, point. A tad slow to start, though I'd admit the beginning to most novels can be a bit hard to get into. We need time and patience to get to know these characters and be given an idea of where the plot is taking us. I don't dock points for a slow start. My stars are judged on how I feel after the first few chapters, whether or not I want to keep reading. Not a problem with this one. The Doom Murders held my interest from start to finish, and the end took me completely by surprise. I admit I'm not the brightest bulb in the pack when it comes to guessing murder mystery, but I'm willing to bet there are few out there who will guess this one.
And I'm not telling you. You'll have to go out and buy your own copy if you want to learn. Can't wait to pick up my next novel by Brian O'Hare.
I realy liked the first two chapters about bay of pigs and kennedy. when he gets into the meat of his argument in chapters 3 and 4 it gets realy dry and his writing gets worse and worse. feals forced and makes me skeptical of his argument. Well researched and all, but the argument just isnt doing it for me. Shoulda gotten a better editor (or a ghost writer atleast)
This is a wonderful little amuse bouche. A fun little taste treat, especially if you've read past book 4 in the series, but long for more details in the journey, and the back story of Roland. And more of the world itself.

The two had met in a matatu in Eldoret and sat next to each other while headed to Nyahururu via Nakuru. The girl was going home, while the accused was headed back to the college which is situated roughly 10 kilometres before Nyahururu town.
“He said it was risky and that his cousin had been killed in a carjacking incident. He kept instilling fear in me and I opted to spend the night after we talked to his wife. He bought me chips while he took beer,” she said.
Later, the accused led the girl to a room that had no latch from inside but only from the outside which the accused locked and left. He later returned and raped the girl.
When she found her way back to the chip’s shop, she narrated her ordeal and it was then that she was told she was at the Laikipia University College main campus and not Subukia. She got a further rude shock when she learnt that the suspect had lied his name was Peter Njenga which could not be traced in the students’ register.
Security officers at the university visited the room and found another student who came in at 5am in deep slumber.
The witness denied claims by lawyer Joel Sigilai that other students had raped her saying she had identified the accused as there was light in the room and the other student came in at 5am and immediately fell asleep without touching her.
The accused was denied bail and will remain in custody until April 24 when the hearing resumes.
House Speaker Paul Ryan, who was dragged into his job kicking and screaming, seems to have a knack for it.
Next year's $1.8 trillion budget passed with sizable majorities in both parties, and it was followed quickly by a love-fest of sorts, with both sides praising the art of compromise.
"We fought for as much as we could get," Ryan said on NBC's Meet the Press.
Sen. Mitch McConnell, the majority leader, seemed to be infected with the same spirit. "Nobody's a dictator here," he said. "We can't do things with one party only in the time of divided government."
Don't get too used to this grown-up attitude, because it may be fleeting. The improving economy made it easier to strike a deal because there was more money to spread around. Republicans got the increase in Pentagon spending they had long sought, and Democrats got an equal increase in the amount of discretionary spending on domestic programs.
But Ryan's credibility among the conservative wing of his party may have given him more room to maneuver. And because 2016 is a presidential election year, sensible Republicans were wary about creating another phony crisis that would make the party look unreasonable again. So, the stars were aligned this year

I originally thought that it may have been running into a stack/data limit,
however the clamd process is only 12MB in size (soft limit for memory is
64MB on this machine.) Given that nothing is using the daemon (ie. no
connections are made) I doubt that it is a race condition, although I don't
know the code well enough to make this call. I'm guessing that the pointer
or memory is getting trampled half way through the malloc/memset...
Additionally, if I send a SIGTERM to clamd it starts using 30-90% of the
CPU and doesn't exit. Not sure if this is related to the above mentioned
issue or something completely seperate - will dig into this soon...
Any pointers/suggestions on where to start looking?
Thanks,
Joel
Hello
I'm using squid 3.1.6 on Debian Squeeze. I run two instances of squid -
on port 3128 and 3129. The instance on port 3128 services my LAN
clients, authenticating via Kerberos/negotiate. The other instance acts
as a transparent proxy (via a DNAT rule on a router).
I have two questions.
a) Is this the best way of achieving a transparent proxy, to run another
instance of squid, or can I successfully combine both instances into one?
b) Should I have the two instances/caches peer with each other using
cache_peer ?
c) Can squid proxy SSL requests transparently ?
Cheers

How do I do this? I can't find any useful information (that solves
it) in the archives. I don't want to use CUPS, and linuxprinting.org
says I don't need to. I've installed all the gimp-print packages that
apt-cache search says there are, but can't for the life of me figure
out how to generate a PPD for the thing, or how to plug gimp-print
into the mix.
I booted into both KDE and Gnome looking for config apps that would do
it. KDE was most promising, but complained that foo.xml
(/usr/share/foomatic/...) wasn't a valid driver. I have managed to
find a Lexmark-Z52 driver in there, but no idea how to use it.
modconf is no help. It just whinges and dumps me back at the command
line.
What's the magic dpkg-reconfigure incantation to use to tell lpr to
use gimp-print with a Z52?
Thanks.
In both the earlier publicly released version of Sword for Windows, and
also the BetaX version, I observed a problem when first starting Sword
and then looking at the BDB module.
It is a dictionary like module, but at first glance there are either 0
or 4 entries by number (similar to Strong's)
Once I click in the window, or change to a second module and back, the
problem fixes itself.
If I start with a different module in Sword activated on startup, the
symptoms do not change.

is a standard practice question
So I have a Django app that contains the standard loader that loads all my web templates from the assets/template folder along with most expected context processors.
My app also sends out e-mails in txt and html formats for which I use a different loader. The loaders are set up as follows:
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'assets/templates')],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
'django.template.context_processors.debug',
'django.template.context_processors.request',
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages'
],
},
},
{
'NAME': 'EmailTemplates',
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'assets/mails')],
'APP_DIRS': True,
},
]
When rendering the mails I use get_template(..., using='EmailTemplates') and it works fine. However, my partner argues that the differences between the loaders are minimal and that it's better to make it just one loader and placeassets/mailstoassets/templates/mails`.
As Django was build to support multiple template loaders (as evident by the parameters using in the many key template methods, I was wondering:
When is it useful to implement multiple template loaders on a site and when should it be avoided?
A:
Let's say that you'd like to use jinja2 in your application. Perhaps you are trying to quickly migrate a project from Flask to Django, or perhaps you prefer Jinja2's features over the features of Django's built-in template engine. Since Django itself uses its own template engine for /admin, and since you probably want to leave that alone, an easy and safe path is to enable both template engines along the lines documented here.

Just when you think it couldn't get any worse for Katniss, it does. Enjoyed the book but it's very 1984ish
Actual rating: 2.5 stars
Initial thoughts: For some reason I expected to be enamoured by The Great Gatsby. I wasn't. On one level I found it rather simplistic in a way that causes people to read too much into things. Like that joke about a literature teacher's interpretation of a blue curtain when author really meant nothing by it. On the other hand, there were subtleties in the story that perhaps not everyone picks up on on their first -- such as Nick Carraway deviating sexuality. Yes, I say deviating because anything other than heterosexuality was against the social norms as well as the law in the 1920s.
What didn't sit well with me was the disconnect from the characters. As significant as some of them might have been, they were pushed into the background, left to become the backdrop to Nick's fascination with Gatsby. Perhaps it was precisely because Nick wasn't just a narrator to Gatsby's life but a biased narrator very much part of the action, such that he had little to elaborate about the others beyond their relations to Gatsby.
My first read of 2016 was a book that I've had on my shelf since my birthday in August but have been reluctant to start because at 479 pages it looked a bit too daunting. In the end it was a combination of Manda Scott's "you must read this!!" and Ally's bookclub that pushed me to start this and goodness me I'm glad that I did!
"Prentisstown isn't like other towns. Everyone can hear everyone else's thoughts in a constant, overwhelming, never-ending Noise. There is no privacy. There are no secrets.
Then, just a month away from the birthday that will make Todd Hewitt a man, he unexpectedly stumbles on a spot of complete silence. Which is impossible."
The Knife of Never Letting Go is the first book in the Chaos Walking trilogy and tells the story of Todd, the only boy left in a town occupied by 146 men and 1 boy. In a world where everyone can hear everyone else's thoughts, Prentisstown is a very overwhelming and frightening place to live. After wandering through a patch of absolute silence, Todd and his dog Manchee are forced to run as far away from Prentisstown as they can.
This is the first Patrick Ness book that I've read and it's clear why he's won so many awards for his Young Adult books.

it wasn't. I would recomend it as a YA novel. I think it is a book my daughter would enjoy. I, on the other hand, could barely get through it. And yet I soldiered on (No pun intended for any that read the book)and refused to let the book beat me into submission.
A portrait of a society in decline led to near extinction, the premise had promise. Then a virus was unleased that made people go mad, jump around (the virals are refered to as jumpers throughout the book), and bite others. There was a love story or two, but you started to not care if they found their happy ending. Some characters had a simple story, others were so drawn out in their relation to the other characters that you just wished they would go away. My favorite character was d federal agent who died trying to protect himself and a little girl from viral attacts . . . or does he? It is a vampire novel remember.
I did like how the story was told. Through multiple character viewpoints, even flipping between past, present and future. And being from the Houston area, I was happy to see place names that were recognizable to me. All-in-all though, this was a book that I could not quite sink my teeth into (pun intended). I'll leave it to teens to continue the vampire adoration trend.
Awesome but the switches are a little stiff for my taste
They were slightly smaller than expected but very nice for the price!

This show is one of the best shows I have ever seen. I am NOT a fan of American crime shows like CSI or whatever thousand others because they are surface. Wire in the Blood's charachters are more real, gritty, and human. The show is dark and artfully done, and I think it probes real minds more than any US show. Tony Hill is an amazing charachter and Robson G. is a brilliant actor. Tony is a socially inept clinical psychologist with a talent for catching serial killers.

'I hope you get eaten first,' said Finn bitterly.
Puck slapped him on the back. 'Yeah, that's not gonna happen. But good call on the zombie birds, even though that's not going to happen, either. I'd punch them out of the sky, the feathered fucks. Anyway, this is a solid plan. Let's get going!'
'But... the ending. It's ridiculous!' said Kurt.
'Why?' demanded Finn.
'Your entire plan revolves around Coach Sylvester rescuing us. In a tank.'
'Well, duh. We're going to be at the tank museum thing.'
'But she hates us, she might be dead, why would she be coming that way, why can't we call the cops or get dad to help us, what about the other citizens of Lima, why can't we get our own tank, where would she get a tank and what do we do when we're on the roof, surrounded by birds and tanks and zombies and she doesn't appear!' he shouted.
His two companions regarded him for a moment. 'Dude,' said Puck. 'Shut up.'
'Why don't we just stay in the mall?' asked Kurt. 'We have everything we need here! We have food, water, clothes--'
'Have I taught you nothing!' gasped Finn. 'How many times have I made you watch Dawn of The Dead?'
'About five thousand,' Kurt muttered.
'And they're totally convinced the mall's the right place to hide. And every time, a zombie sneaks through the double doors or comes roaring out of the fountain--'
'But that's just to add suspense to the story,' Kurt insisted. 'I'm staying here. You go outside and get eaten, see how you like _that_.' He folded his arms.
'I don't want to stay!' cried Finn. 'I know what's going to happen if we do! And I'm not being funny, but as the handsome jock, I'll be first to get eaten.'
'Whatever,' muttered Kurt. 'I'm not going.'

'Help! Help, I'm being kidnapped!' cried Kurt, hanging on to the window ledge.
'Shut up!' said Puck. 'You're going to alert zombies everywhere!' With one final pull, he and Finn managed to extricate Kurt from the window. 'It's safer out here. Any minute now, one of those zombies are going to remember the code. It's like wired into deep memory or something, I dunno.'
Finn patted Kurt's shoulder as they put him down on the ground. 'He's right, Kurt. Now let's go steal those bikes from the parking lot and get out of here.'
'My car's right there!' protested Kurt.

1.Introduction
In the current business arena cloud computing is very helpful and cost effective for small business as well as for the larger business [1−5].
In the today's world the use of cloud computing is spreading in different areas. It includes the university, business enterprise, IT industry, Health sector etc. The security concern is the major concern these days. There are several literature which discussed this type of issues like [6−10]. Virtualization, dominating enlisting is additionally the more obvious office parts of passed on preparing. In any case, to satisfy the execution on the parallel framework and keeping up the decency is convincing [11]. In every single one of these works, stunning attempts are made to plan strategies that meet assorted fundamentals: high game plan feasibility, stateless check, unbounded use of request and wretchedness of information, and so forth.
*Author for correspondence
Thinking about the piece of the verifier in the model, every last one of the plans showed before fall into two classes: private auditability and open auditability [5]. Despite the manner in which that orchestrates with private auditability can play out the plans enough, yet it is attempting circumstance if the information is anchoring quietly [5]. Virtualization is the key fragments of scattered figuring by which information sharing is conceivable between various machines of virtual closeness from the server develop [12,13]. Virtualization draws in the live relocation [9] of virtual machines which helps in keeping up the guaranteed SLA to the cloud client other than to change stack crosswise over physical servers in the information centers [12].
In the cloud provider market the main providers are Google, Microsoft, Amazon and Salesforce.com. The appropriated figuring advantage show relies upon the data correspondence layer. The whole correspondence is relies upon three layers. The layers of the cloud computing are: Software as a Service (SaaS) which is for the software based application.
Customer relationship organization (CRM) is the example [14]. Platform as a Service (PaaS) is fior the platform based application for he different deployment services. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) by and large joins virtualization conditions as got associations rather than physical or submitted PC gear [15].
The main objectives of this paper are: 1. To apply standard encryption and decryption mechanism with security breach detection. 2. To perform analytical and comparative study.
2.Literature survey
In 2017, Akhil et al. [16] discussed the data security in the cloud environment as the number of users in the cloud is large. They have focus on the data security aspects when the data is secured. They have suggested that the intruders can

definitely be checking out the next book when it is released and in the meantime I'm planning on reading more from this author's back list.
A fun, fast-paced adventure, just as wonderful as anticipated! I loved the hero, sympathized with the heroine, and thoroughly enjoyed the adorable pursuit that takes place between the two. I really liked that the book jumps right into the plot; this aspect kept me turning pages and quickly swept me away into the story. A wonderful read!
An interesting twist on a beloved classic. A story with love, family, and misunderstanding. All that was missing was the zombies. Seth Grahame-Smith is a talented individual when it comes to mixing the world of Jane Austen with a monster zombie plague. He is very good at missing these two ideas together especially when he uses time appropriate ways of describing the zombies and the disease that creates them. He also takes the characters and enhances them appropriately for this twist and maintains their original selves.Now I am not going to describe the book here anymore than this because it is honestly the same plot and characters and Jane Austen's just some brain eating dead monsters thrown in. I hope my wording does not come across at belittling the work of Grahame-Smith because I honestly found it extremely well done.
As the ending neared I felt the same anticipation and eagerness as I did with the original work. I gave this book a 5/5 stars, currently on goodreads it is rated at a 3.27 stars. So many viewed this as an average or slightly above average read. I say if you enjoyed the original work this is well worth the read. Additionally, if you found the classic a bit dull I would try this out. This take definitely adds a bit more adventure!
*Note the movie that is currently out is very different from the book. I preferred the book between the two. If you see the movie it is best to think of it as something separate.
The Fletcher's are back and this time they take us on a vacation to their home away from home, Rock Island. Time for kayaking, surfing, and exploring the lighthouse next door. Or maybe not. The lighthouse has Ben fenced off and a potential buyer, artist Chase Kark, has not so pleasant plans for Rock Island. It is up to Sam, Jay, Eli and Frog, (with the help of some new friends) to uncover what is really going on. Throw in some Midsummer Night's Dream, a few seals , and some magic tricks and you have a nice little adventure.

radio show and I think they made a valid point. The Packers were so convinced at that point that the Bears offense couldn't do shit that they took the risk since they didn't think it could hurt them, and it really didn't.
No worries! Being in my position, it's nice talking to people who understand what I'm going through. Also, preventing anyone from experiencing what I did is what's most important. I knew I had a problem but never knew the extent. Not only did I completely break my hip/femur, I had to crawl up an entire flight of stairs, holding my leg on my body (or so it felt), to reach my phone to call for an ambulance. The trauma itself is enough to last me a lifetime. Like I said, if you have any ability to cut back now, don't wait until it's too late! I'm so sorry about your pain though. Like I stated previously, no amount of pain meds can mask dental pain. I know from experience, just bite the bullet. I'm already in so much debt from student loans, I know financials are tough. But I promise it's worth it. Being in pain while living as an addict is much, much worse!
Life is very good. So far my life has only gotten better since kidhood. When shitty things happen to you as a kid, you never have that feeling that other people talk about that's like "I wish things were carefree and fun like when I was a kid. Oh, to be 5 again!" That's kind of nice in a way. Instead, getting older always means getting more capable, and further away from helplessness. It is like built-in healing. I had my little breakdown about it when I was in college, but I had a pretty good support system of friends who I knew cared about me. I never told them actually, but knowing that they were there was helpful. At the time, I freaked out about other things, and I guess they never knew wholly what they were comforting me about. I remember what happened about once every two weeks, but it doesn't bother me anymore. I told a few boyfriends because I felt like it was kind of relevant to them to know everything about me. I have told friends, but it never felt right to tell them. I keep it restricted to boyfriends now. I might drop even that if I ever feel like it is irrelevant to my personality. edit: I think I will be a somewhat overbearing parent. I would not have kids who are spaced far apart in age, and I would never let them "babysit" each other. I think I would avoid hiring babysitters altogether if I could--I almost feel like kids are safer home alone than with babysitters. I would ask them frequently if anything is going on, even though I know that if someone asked me when I were little, I would have just denied everything.

conjecture by Lusztig on the precise number of left cells in a 2-sided cell. This and other such combinatorial matters are related to unsolved problems in representation theory. Anyway, the precise relationship between cells in affine Weyl groups and finite Weyl groups has been worked out in Lusztig's papers and is nicely illustrated in the rank 2 cases in his Japanese conference paper. (See also the photo of Lusztig in his specially made $G_2$ t-shirt in the paper by Gunnells here.)
Concerning canonical left cells, there has been further computational work by Chmutova and Ostrik in a 2002 paper here. Gunnells and others have gone on to study further the difficult problem of characterizing the location of "distinguished involutions" in all left cells, which I suspect is closely related to modular representations of the corresponding Lie algebras.
ADDED: To comment a little further, the occurrence here of the Langlands dual group is perhaps mysterioous, but for the reflection groups and cells it shows up mainly in the interchange of Lie types $B_\ell$ and $C_\ell$. The embedding of a Weyl group into an affine Weyl group is less affeccted, since Weyl groups of these types are isomorphic. But the dual version of an affine Weyl group, with its translation lattice expanded by a prime factor $p$, is crucial in characteristic $p$ representation theory of the algebraic groups involved (as Verma first noticed).
From Lusztig's work (especially his definition of "special" nilpotent orbits), one sees that a two-sided cell of the Langlands dual affine Weyl group meets a (unique) two-sided cell of the finite Weyl group precisely when the corresponding nilpotent orbit is special. In type $A_\ell$ where $W = S_{\ell+1}$, all orbits are special, but otherwise not. This adds a further layer of interest to the kind of parametrization you ask for. Special orbits have a Lusztig-Spaltenstein duality, for type $A_\ell$ just the transpose involution on partitions of $\ell+1$. This leads further, to Lusztig's special pieces of the nilpotent variety, which people now understand better in terms of an "exotic" version of the variety: see for example here.
Some short unpublished notes (in a more general context, where the finite Weyl group appears as one of the parabolic subgroups of an affine Weyl group) are here, but don't deal with the geometric side.
Q:
Can Excel find a row and column using cell values as a reference?
I am using Excel 2010.
I have columns like
Start_Sum End_Sum ------ 1999 --2000 -- 2001 --- 2002 --- 2003 --- 2004 --- 2005
2000 ------ 2003 ------------- 200 --- 140 -- 160 ----- 368 ---- 892 ----- 213 ----- 637
Total SUM :- 1560
The above shown is example of my excel sheet.
Now as the start and(2000) end date(2003) is edited by users I need to recalculate the Total value(1560).
So to sum I need to know the Position like =SUM(E15:H15)
Now is there any way that with the header name like 2001 I can find which column and row its is
Eg like 2001 is in F14
Is there any Excel function available
