Took a ride on the train of low self-esteem! Wish I could give it less than one star. Took everything in me to finish it. Very very disappointed :(
Enjoyable!
The artwork really fit the story well! I cannot wait to read more!

BLURB:
Sarah Miller hasn't been home in seven years. She thought she could stay away forever. If it wasn't for her big brother's wedding, that is. Part of her even feels silly for staying away this long. It's not like anyone even knew what happened. Well, except for him.
That guy. The one she compared all others to. The one who set the bar so high no other guy after him could even compete. The one who made her feel like anything was possible. The one she thought she would never be good enough for. The one she spent the last seven years trying to forget.
All she needs to do is make it through the next week without running into him.

The grass is not always greener
Lamenting a life in a public housing neighborhood, Eliot decided his deteriorating relationship with wife, Donna, and his inability to concentrate on his writing was caused by rowdy neighbors. He knew life would be better if his family could "live on a secluded country estate where everything should be safe and simple."
Millions of us watched "Downton Abbey" and day-dreamed of living like the gentry, but this novel explores a seamier side of life on a country estate. It reveals arduous work, dirty secrets, and abundant temptations. After securing a new position, Eliot discovers that the life of the gentry is not always what it appears, and realizes that honor, fidelity and truth must be carefully guarded or lost forever. Life is not always greener on the other side of the fence!
Neil Grimmett was a masterful writer who passed away last year. During an illustrious career, he won literary awards and published a riveting suspense novel (that I enjoyed) before his untimely death. Neil immersed his readers in the gritty lives of his characters, helping readers see, feel, and almost taste life through the adept mastery of his craft. I recommend this literary novel to readers who appreciate exploring the complexity of humanity from his unique perspective.
Beautiful story, with mesmerizing characters.

Oh, and get this: I went out with Shauna! It was great! She's like, so awesome. We went out, and then we were all like, 'this is nice.' Then we hugged and went back in again. It was good while it lasted! I think that we've decided to 'just be friends' for a while, and while that's semi-disappointing, I understand that our friendship is something of immense value, and therefore I appreciate it greatly-ful.

Okay, I'm self-absorbed. I had a really long conversation with someone that I had just met the other night, and the thought I kept coming back to was, 'I want to know what this person thinks of me.' When you first meet someone, no, see someone, and it's before you know that you'll ever actually talk to the person, you start making judgements of what they're all about. They're wearing that shirt, so that means that they're into this. And so on. Of course, that person has to catch your attention in the first place. Some people can just float around and never be noticed. It happens. SO, someone catches your attention. They're hot, or they're yelling loudly, or they walk into your work place and you have to serve them coffee. First thought??? What am I putting out there? I really don't know. The other day in the Mirror someone complained about girls who dye their hair black. Sorry, white girls that dye their hair black. 'Are you trying to tell me that you're all hardcore or something? ' White girl who dyes her hair black here. They also wondered why we don't smile.

the Times added, "And in 1994 President Bill Clinton sent a directive to government agencies telling them to start using environmentally friendly practices for landscaping government grounds, like reducing the use of toxic chemicals."
Really? Then how do you explain what Williams told the Post in 1999, when asked how he would replace ComPRO: "We'll do the same thing we did before we got it--use grass clippings that decompose and regular commercial fertilizer (my emphasis). More to the point, in September, 2007, the EPA adjusted its government procurement standards for the "landscaping products" category to specifically include "compost made from recovered organic materials," including "compost made from biosolids" (the EPA's term for sludge). The standards recommend that government agencies use only compost that meets this definition.
So contrary to the impression conveyed by the Times, it's pretty safe to assume that sludge--with all of its flaws--is still in wide use by the government. At least the paper's gardening section isn't parroting the of Post's "Ornamental Gardener" column of the late '80s, which described ComPRO as "attractive, hummuslike and easy to handle" and conducive to "ideal conditions for healthy root growth." Instead, the Times reports that good sources of organic matter for gardening include "composted leaves, non-acid peat, and well-rotted manure." But sludge? Don't hold your breath.

Okay this is a list I am in the process of writing for a upcomming tournament, it is incomplete and I could use your help in finishing it.
The crisis suits (incl the commander) are for termie hunting
The kroot protect the broadsides, I think the rest of what this army does is fairly obvious.
I'm not looking for purticular units I need, I would like you to point out what the force lacks, E.G. anti MEQ power. (note I am considering a unit of Vespid, I would like to know your opinion on them)
Also a Shas'vre with a HWMT and shield gen would do wonders for your XV8 unit. They'll get a lot of fire, especially with the fusion blaster since they have to get pretty close to use it. You could swap it with the missile pod for the same points in games depending on the amount of tanks and whatnot.
Unless it's me, i don't see any markerlights, the godsent equipment which my army relies on, try to get some into your FW squads- IMHO, Drop the flechette dischargers and the multi-tracker from the D-Fish(you won't need this on a vehicle-'less it's an Skyray or Railhead), second, turn the O into an 'EL an idea which saved (points)me thanks to Boneguard, oh yes, before i forget, give the 'El a targeting array. for your broadside, why a Shas'vre? make him a team leader, you get the same stuff, those points could be used elsewhere.
RMB! Markerlights are your friend! The more the merrier!
Just my $0.02
I never said to get Pathfinders, just get your firewarrior team-leaders to hold Markerlights and a Target Lock(use the leader to light up targets). Hmm...Marker drones eh? I didn't think of that, good

Vadim,
Perhaps something with palette's (not that I'm much into MSW palettes/DIBs
much) ...?
I got bitten by something similar with wxImageList... wxImageList.Draw(...)
wasn't handling palettes for images with >16 colors correctly (256+ colors
all got mapped to the 16 system colors - yuch). Assumed this was intended
behavior, and just used wxDC.DrawBitmap(...) instead, which handled the
color stuff just fine.
Would have mentioned this earlier, but forgot... your note reminded me.

Hi,
I tried to install Debian testing in a logical domain on Sun Fire T2000
and I hit a problem - the installer didn't detect that it was running
inside a LDom and didn't load sunvdc and sunvnet kernel modules. In turn
it was unable to find the CD, disk and network. I managed to load them
in from the shell and return back to the installer. The rest of the
installation went on fine, however the generated initramfs image didn't
include these modules either leaving the system unable to boot. I fixed
that too by rebuilding the initramdisk but it would be nice if this
little thing was looked after in the installer. Other than that thanks
for your work on making Linux available on Sparc platform!

Hi there,
I've got a problem while installing Gentoo 1.2:
After booting the newly installed system INIT stops
after "Starting local". It seems that no shell/login
is started. I've added "/bin/sh" to /etc/conf.d/local.start
and now a shell is started, but there is no login prompt
and there is only one console available.
During the installation I did exactly the same as in the
documentation.
What am I doing wrong????
Thanx in advance...Michael
Some months ago something got automatically updated on my SL6 LTSP
server that began causing kwin to crash as soon as it started. It
simply will not stay running even when started manually.
The KDE developers, being pessimistic enough to predict this might
happen, coded a dialog on initial login stating kwin has crashed a few
times and offers to start metacity instead. OK, not great but functional.
More recently metacity has also begun crashing after running for a
while. The "while" had been days to weeks but today I had a few clients
that logged in in the morning, started metacity, and by afternoon
metacity had stopped too, leaving no window manager. It's near
impossible to use a GUI desktop without a window manager so the users
are understandably unhappy about this.
Anyone know what has changed recently that would cause the window
managers to become so flaky? I confirmed that my system is up to date
with all the standard repositories.
Thanks,

The following 2 plots show the outer rays for each images (total of 16 images). The blue end is the camera point and the cyan is a bounding box containing the object captured by the camera. One can clearly see the rays projecting back to the object in world coordinate system.
A:
To define the ray you need a start point (which is the camera/eye position) and a direction vector, which can be calculated using any point on the ray.
For a given pixel in the image, you have a projected X and Y (zeroed at the center of the image) but no Z depth value. However the real-world co-ordinates corresponding to all possible depth values for that pixel will all lie on the ray you are trying to calculate, so you can just choose any arbitrary non-zero Z value, since any point on the ray will do.
float projectedX = (x - imageCenterX) / (imageWidth * 0.5f);
float projectedY = (y - imageCenterY) / (imageHeight * 0.5f);
float projectedZ = 1.0f; // any arbitrary value
Now that you have a 3D projected co-ordinate you can undo the projection by applying the perspective divide in reverse by multiplying X and Y by Z, then multiplying the result by the inverse projection matrix to get the unprojected point.
// undo perspective divide (redundant if projectedZ = 1, shown for completeness)
projectedX *= projectedZ;
projectedY *= projectedZ;
Vector3 projectedPoint = new Vector3(projectedX, projectedY, projectedZ);
// undo projection by multiplying by inverse:
Matrix invProjectionMat = projectionMat.inverse();
Vector3 unprojectedPoint = invProjectionMat.multiply(projectedPoint);
Subtract the camera position from the unprojected point to get the direction vector from the camera to the point, and then normalize it. (This step assumes that the projection matrix defines both the camera position and orientation, if the position is stored separately then you don't need to do the subtraction)
Vector3 directionVector = unprojectedPoint.subtract(cameraPosition);
directionVector.normalize();
The ray is defined by the camera position and the normalized direction vector. You can then intersect it with any of the X, Y, Z planes.

Fox News contributor Dick Morris claimed that President Obama "will be defeated" in 2012 because "he's causing the second housing crisis by cutting out the mortgage interest deduction" and "causing the deficit with this gigantic government spending." In fact, proposed changes in the mortgage deduction for the wealthy have not been implemented, and the primary drivers of the deficit are the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the economic downturn, and the tax cuts implemented in the Bush administration.
Morris Claims Obama To "Blame For" Deficit
Morris: "Doesn't [Obama] Understand That He's Causing The Deficit With This Gigantic Government Spending?" On the June 2 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, Fox News contributor Dick Morris claimed: "I think that Obama definitely can be defeated and will be defeated. I think that the - it is impossible for him to avoid blame for this economy." Morris later asked of Obama, "Doesn't he understand that he's causing the deficit with this gigantic government spending? I mean, at some point he just has to look in the mirror and say, 'Everything I've been doing is wrong.' " Morris later claimed Obama will be "running for re-election ... in the middle of a recession and this time it will be called the Obama recession." [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 6/2/11]
In Fact, Experts Agree That Bush Policies, Economic Downturn Are Largely To Blame For The Growing Deficit
CBO Projected $1.2T Deficit In January 2009 Based On Spending Bush Authorized; Actual Deficit Was $1.4T. In a January 7, 2009, report, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projected, based on spending authorized under the Bush administration, that the federal deficit in FY2009 would total $1.2 trillion. According to the CBO, the actual federal deficit for FY2009, which began during the Bush's last year in office, was $1.4 trillion. [CBO, January 2009, January 2010]
CAP: "Single Most Important [Cause Of The Deficit] Is The Legacy Of President George W. Bush's Legislative Agenda." In an August 2009 analysis, the Center for American Progress (CAP) concluded that about two-thirds of the then-projected budget deterioration for 2009 and 2010 could be attributed to either Bush's policies or the economic downturn:
The report explained:
As for the deficit's cause, the single most important factor is the legacy of President George W. Bush's legislative agenda. Overall, changes in federal law during the Bush administration are responsible for 40 percent of the short-term fiscal problem. For example, we estimate that the tax cuts passed during the Bush presidency are reducing government revenue collections by $231 billion in 2009. Also, because of the additions to the federal debt due to Bush administration policies, the government will be paying $218 billion more in interest payments in 2009. Had President Bush not cut taxes while simultaneously prosecuting

Hi Daniel,
The main issue with Broadway is that:
It is considered an experimental GDK backend, and it is not really kept up to date with the developments in GTK-3.x
Specifically what this means is that there isn’t OpenGL support in it (we need OS/platform-level support for OpenGL for creating and switching (making current) OpenGL contexts), which likely needs to be done with WebGL, which most probably needs to be done in the .js file in the broadway subdir in gdk/. GTK+-4.x is going to switch to GL drawing, at least for the majority of the various components, which makes OpenGL support a requirement.
AFAIK, the backends that have the needed support are x11, Wayland, mir and Windows.
If you know how to do initialize OpenGL in WebGL (ie Javascript), please let the people know here, as this is what I think is mainly what needed for Broadway to stay.
With blessings, and cheers!
Dear All,
To have a local build machine as similar as possible to the one of BioC to
check packages locally:
1. Will the new, upcoming builds, use the new R-beta (as in, e.g.,
https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/rtest.html) [the link is for
Windows, but this question also applies to Linux]
2. Under Windows, will that R-beta be built using Rtools33 and gcc-4.9.3 or
Rtools32 with gcc-4.6.3? (I think up to now Rtools32 was being used, based
upon date and version of gcc ---4.6.3)
Sorry if this has been explained before; I googled for it but could not
find an answer.
Thanks,

Hello Uday,
1. I simplified the project structure in the new version since the
separate projects were not really necessary anymore.
2. I think saving and loading profiler runs would be nice. Having more
than one profiling "project" open at the same time does not seem all
that useful, though, since you will usually only profile one
application at a time.
3. Writing automated tests for NProf is somewhat difficult, since the
results of the profiler are different on every execution. This is why
I don't currently plan to add automated tests to NProf.
4. To debug the Hook, I usually insert a call to "DebugBreak" at the
position where I want to start debugging. When DebugBreak()

increasing amount of people are experiencing heightened stress and anxiety.
No matter what we choose to do in the next moment, it’s almost always better when we’re emotionally regulated and balanced. Here are three simple ways to break free from negative anxious thoughts and restore feelings of calm and well-being (I go into 8 additional ways to do this here).
3 Ways to Release Negative Anxious Thoughts
1. Recognize the Thought: If the thought is, “the world is going to hell in a handbasket” or “life is never going to get better” or some form of complaining, blaming or something like that, take a moment to recognize that the thought is forming in your brain.
2. Relax the Body – When you’re experiencing negative anxious thoughts, your body is also reacting. You’re going through some form of a fight-flight-freeze response, so take a moment to relax your body.
3. Release the Thinking: You can use the out-breath to release tension in your body, as well as any negative thinking. You can even imagine negative anxious thoughts leaving your body with the out-breath.
At this point you might find yourself in a bit of a more balanced space and if you like you can even take a moment to open up to what’s good. Could it be that you’re safe, you’re body is working okay in this moment, you actually have some friends you can count on, you have a job—whatever it might be, see if you can name a few of those, recognize them, and also just linger in that a little bit.
Practice these three things of Recognize, Relax and Release – consider it the Three R’s to Breaking Negative Anxious Thoughts. You can also flip it with thinking about what’s good too. Treat it like an experiment. Remember, like anything else what you practice and repeat starts to become more automatic.
Warmly,

As "prosperous for its size", I mean that it had a good economy and the standard of living was good. And you aren't understanding that the USA has continued to fuck its economy to this day. You clearly just have already come to the conclusion you want to come to, and don't care to do any research to see why it's an incredibly stupid and incorrect opinion.
A resistive touchscreen depresses when you touch it. You can feel it doing so on older phones, as new ones generally have capacitive touch. When the top layer of the display is pressed down, it causes the depressed layer to come in contact with the layer below. Those two layers have horisontal and vertical lines of electrodes respectively. So first the layer with vertical lines of electrodes is powered with a voltage gradient, meaning each wire has a different voltage. The second layer is then measured, the voltage being higher or lower depending on which electrode is in contact with the layer and thus how far left or right the layers are in contact. Then the process is repeated with the horisontal lines, which provides information on how high or low on the screen the layers are in contact. There are two main types of capacitive touch. The first is simpler, but less accurate. A capacitor is formed when two objects (called plates)are close together but are not in electric contact. If there is a potential difference (higher voltage on one side than the other) then an electrostatic field is created between them. You can (but if you're a physics major, shouldn't) think of it like magnets on opposite sides of a nonconductive material. They are holding each other in place. This type of capacitive screen forms a capacitor where you touch it, in effect your finger being the one plate, the glass being the insulator and a conductive coating on the other side of the glass being the other plate. A capacitor in series with a resistor will when measured have lower capacitance than one without. Based on this principle, when you touch the screen the device can measure the capacitance from each corner, the measurement with the highest capacitance being the closest corner to the input and the measurement with the highest being the farthest away. The second main type of capacitive sensing uses a grid of capacitors. Because of being in a grid, each individual coordinate can be measured individually. When you touch the screen, the electric field for nearby capacitors is changed. That change can be measured, and the affected capacitors can be pinpointed and correlated to a point on the display.

This week I emailed both my Congressman and Senator to ask them to do something about spoofing phone numbers. I get about 20 calls a day from spoofed numbers. Mostly robocalls, but not all. It’s made the National Do Not Call List useless. It should be illegal. I hate it passionately.

This is because he wasn't taking us seriously. He was doing strange things with the swords when we first run into him. Remember, Garleans can't use magic, which means they have no control over aether outside of their own bodies, yet he was doing SOMETHING with otherwise unaugmented katanas he'd stolen from other people. The mechanic he was using reminded me of the FFT version of Samurai, burning up the unique history of the blade to create a magical effect. Furthermore, while you're fighting him the first time in the cinematic, you can see a strange effect surrounding his body when someone tries to land hits on him, a white glow that comes with a muffled 'thud' sound, as if blows are not landing directly on him. There is also the distinctive purple fire on his swords. As a Garlean, he should not be able to do these things without the use of Cerulium technology, and this should come with a blue or yellow glow, not white or purple.

2019). While these studies provide great theoretical insight, their manual coding schemes and small corpora are not suited for large scale real-time analysis of news reports nationwide. While many recent works in NLP have started to detect police shootings (Nguyen and Nguyen, 2018;Keith et al., 2017) and other gun violence (Pavlick et al., 2016), we are the first to model entity-centric framing around police violence.
POLICE VIOLENCE FRAME CORPUS
To study media framing of police violence, we introduce POLICE VIOLENCE FRAME CORPUS (PVFC) which contains over 82,000 news reports of police shooting events. We now describe the corpus construction as it is shown in Figure 2.
Identifying Shooting Events
We first use Mapping Police Violence (Sinyangwe et al., 2021) to identify shooting events. It is a representative, reliable, and detailed record, as it cross-references the three most complete databases available: Fatal Encounters (Burghart, 2020), the U.S. Police Shootings Database (Tate et al., 2021), and Killed by Police, all of which have been validated by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (Banks et al., 2016). Prior works in sociology and criminology (Gray and Parker, 2020) use it as an alterna-tive to official police reports because local police departments significantly underreport shootings (Williams et al., 2019). At the time of our retrieval, the Mapping Police Violence dataset identified 8,169 named victims of police shootings between January 1, 2013 and September 4, 2020 and provided the victim's age, gender, and race, whether they fled or attacked the officer, and whether the victim had a known mental illness or was armed (and with what weapon), as well as the location and date of the shooting, the agency responsible, and whether the incident was recorded on video.
Collecting News Reports
For each named police shooting or violent encounter in Mapping Police Violence, we query the Google search API for up to 30 news articles relevant to that event. We found this sample size is large enough to represent both sides without introducing too much noise. Our query string includes officer keywords, the victim's name, and a time window restricted to within one month of the event (see Appendix A for details and design choices). Next, we extracted article publication dates using the Webhose extractor (Geva, 2018), and as a preprocessing step, we used the Dragnet library (Peters and Lecocq, 2013) to automatically filter and remove ads, navigation items, or other irrelevant content from the raw HTML. In the end, the POLICE VIOLENCE FRAME CORPUS contained 82,100 articles across 7,679 events. The per-ideology statistics of reported events are given in Table 1. The racial and ethnic distribution is: White (43.0%), Black (29.7%), Hispanic (15.3%), Asian (1.5%), Native American (1.3%), and Pacific Islander (0.5%), while the other 8.7% of articles report on a victim of unknown race/ethnicity.
Assigning Media Slant Labels
We associated each news source with a political leaning by matching its URL domain name with the Media Bias Fact Check (2020) record. With more than 1,500 records, the MBFC contains the largest available collection of crowdsourced media slant labels, and it has been used as ground truth in

part of *that* is
that he's eating about once every 4 hours, and all of those feedings
either end with or consist entirely of breastfeeding, and that's
draining, in more than one way.
To top things off, Catherine's been in a bad mood most of the day. She
had tubes put in her ears last month, and a lot of crap has drained from
the middle ears into the outer ears, and I'm concerned that one of the
tubes may have clogged up now. We're calling her pediatrician in the
morning, to see if we need to bring her in or if we should just try
using ear drops (and get a prescription for them called in, if
prescription drops are necessary) or something and see if that clears
things up. Just got her back in bed a little bit ago, having gotten her
up after she'd been screaming in pain. I did what I could to get goop
out without sticking anything in the ear canal (not much, but a bit) and
let her nurse, and she went to bed in much better spirits. If she
doesn't scream again in the next half-hour, I'll consider that success
for the time being.
And now I think I need to get a little sleep before Tommy's midnight
feeding....

Southeast Sulawesi Tribe Using Korean Alphabet to Preserve Native Tongue
Seoul. A small Indonesian ethnic group with no written version of its language has decided to adopt the Korean alphabet known as Hangul, a scholar involved in the project said on Thursday.
It is the first case of Hangul, a phonetic alphabet, being used by a foreign society, said Seoul National University professor Lee Ho-Young.
Lee said that the Cia-Cia ethnic group in the southern part of Buton Island in Southeast Sulawesi, including in the city of Bau-Bau, had adopted the script to transcribe its aboriginal Austronesian language.
Their language is also known as Cia-Cia and is closely related to the Wolio language prevalent in Southeast Sulawesi.
Ancient Cia-Cia literature exists in the Gundul script, a form of Arabic with five additional letters and no signs to denote vocals that was used in the old Malay world.
Lee said that the city on July 21 began teaching students the alphabet based on textbooks created by the Hunminjeongeum Research Institute, a linguistic society in Seoul.
“The Cia-Cia are now able to preserve their native language,” said Lee, an institute member who played a key role in creating the textbooks, describing the case as “historic.”
The books explain the history and culture

is that the printer will run out of paper, and cups will wait a certain amount of time, and if the person doesn't get the tray reloaded, it'll restart the job, wasting all that time/paper again. This happens a lot right now because people will print the end of month reports (required we do this to paper) at the end of their shift, go home, and expect to have to reload the tray again tomorrow, and it'll take off where it left off. Unfortunately, that's not how it works, and it starts reprinting the job in it's entirety again.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I cannot use the cups drivers for the printer, I have to keep the RAW/RAW drivers because priting through cups using native drivers makes the fonts and sizing totally different; not good for forms.
thanks much!

Some correction Tex,
In the entry of Sudan you list ha (Hausa) .. this isn't a Sudanese
language, its from West Africa. You may also want to add din (Dinka) to
the Sudanese entry.
ar-SD (Arabic) also this tag could be considered to be ambiguous .. is
it the national language of Sudan (Standard Modern Arabic) or is it the
Sudanese Arabic dialect?
Also in the Niger entry you have ff (Fula), this would be best written
as ff-NE since fula/puel is spoken in a number of countries, and there
is a variation between the orthographies used in each of those
countries. Fulfulde (Fula/Puel) in Niger would be ff-NE and ff-NG
Nigeria while it would be ff-SN for Pulaar (Fula/Puel) in Senegal.

Just wondering: did anyome who now has iTunes 4.8 get it via Software
Update, or did you all go to the Apple site and download it manually?
It's been available for over two days now and it's not showing up under
Software Update of my Tiger-upgraded system. That seems odd to me
considering that there's supposed to be a security-fix in it. I'd have
thought that it would be on S.U. right away ...

delivered bears to Children’s Hospital of New Jersey to brighten the holidays for some patients.
NEWARK–On Tuesday, Dec. 14, eight-year-old Justin Martin and his father delivered 100 bears from Build-A-Bear Workshop to Children’s Hospital of New Jersey.
“Our pediatric patients are delighted to receive the generous gift of Justin’s bears,” says Joshua Rosenblatt, MD, chairman of Pediatrics at CHoNJ at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center.
[smartads]
The bears were given to pediatric patients on C5, A5, D5, Pediatric same day surgery and conscious sedation units. The Justin Charity Bear Fund was created two years ago and this year Martin hopes to receive enough donations to distribute 1,000 bears.
Martin was just 5 1/2 years old when he realized that not all children were lucky to have a bear like his. He told his father that he wanted to make bears and give them to needy children, and together they created the nonprofit, The Justin Charity Bear Fund.
In 2008, with help from volunteers and a partnership with the partnered with the Newark Housing Authority, they were able to raise enough money to make 850 bears at the Bridgewater Build-A-Bear store and give them to New Jersey children.
If you want to donate to The Justin Charity Bear Fund, which is a registered 501(c)3, you can contact [email protected].
To make a hospitalized child’s life more pleasant or assist his/her family, visit: www.givetochildrennj.org and make a donation that directly helps pediatric patients. For more information, call 1-973-926-7018.

On Thursday, Sept. 22, Miami Trace/Great Oaks FFA took 13 students to be entered in the District 9 FFA Soil Judging competition.
The Soils CDE is an educational activity designed as a practical method of teaching students to evaluate land and soil and to make decisions when faced with soil-related issues that affect agricultural production and/or construction.
The following FFA members competed in the Soils CDE: Blake Bradshaw, Meri Grace Carson, Nick Elrich, Garrett Hagler, Regan Hagler, Rebecca Heckathorn, Gretchen Ivers, Chloe Lambert, JM Perrill, Todd Peterson, Trevor Pursell, Andria Robinson, and Aubrey Schwartz . These students were divided into two teams competing in either Ag Soils and Urban Soils.
The Ag Soils team placed seventh in the district and the Urban Soils team placed 11th in the district. Garrett Hagler was the top individual from Miami Trace, placing fourth overall in the Ag Soils contest.
All of these students walked away with a better understanding of soil components and the issues that arise pertaining to land use.

Q:
Python socket programming and ISO-OSI model
I am sending packets from one pc to other. I am using python socket socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM ). Do we need to take care of order in which packets are received ?
In ISO-OSI model layers below transport layer handle all packets communication. Do all ISO-OSI layers present in the program ? Or some of them present in operating system ?
On localhost I get all packets in order.
Will it make any difference over internet ?
A:
SOCK_DGRAM means you want to send packets by UDP -- no order guarantee, no guarantee of reception, no guarantee of lack of repetition. SOCK_STREAM would imply TCP -- no packet boundary guarantee, but (unless the connection's dropped;-) guarantee of order, reception, and no duplication. TCP/IP, the networking model that won the heart and soul of every live practitioned and made the Internet happen, is not compliant to ISO/OSI -- a standard designed at the drafting table and never really winning in the real world.
The Internet as she lives and breathes is TCP/IP all the way. Don't rely on tests done on a low-latency local network as in ANY way representative of what will happen out there in the real world. Welcome to the real world, BTW, and, good luck (you'll need some!-).
A:
To answer your immediate question, if you're using SOCK_STREAM, then you're actually using TCP, which is an implementation of the transport layer which does take care of packet ordering and integrity for you. So it sounds like that's what you want to use. SOCK_DGRAM is actually UDP, which doesn't take care of any integrity for you.
Do we need to take care of order in which packets are received ? In ISO-OSI model layers below transport layer handle all packets communication. Do all ISO-OSI layers present in the program ?
Just to clear this up, in the ISO-OSI model, all the layers below the transport layer handle sending of a single packet from one computer to the other, and don't "understand" the concept of packet ordering (it doesn't apply to them).
In this model, there is another layer (the session layer, above the transport layer) which is responsible for defining the session behavior. It is this layer which decides whether to have things put in place to prevent reordering, to ensure integrity, and so on.
In the modern world, the ISO-OSI model is more of an idealistic template, rather than an actual model. TCP/IP is the actual implementation which is used almost everywhere.
In TCP/IP, the transport layer is the one that has the role of defining whether there is any session behavior or not.

KKR had withdrawn its bid for IMG.
ANNAPOLIS — Nearly $60 million in business deals were signed during Maryland’s recent trade mission to India, and deals worth millions more are in the works, Gov. Martin O’Malley said Monday.
The trip was aimed at creating more jobs and opportunities in Maryland by strengthening the state’s relationship with India and selling the state as the best place for Indian companies to get a foothold in the American market.
“Without any help at all, there will be jobs that go to other nations,” O’Malley said at a briefing on the recent trip. “That’s why we have to work in order to create jobs here at home from foreign direct investment into Maryland. That’s why we have to work hard in order to open up our markets.”
More than 100 business leaders, educators and state officials participated in the trip that included stops in Hyderabad, Mumbai and New Delhi. The delegation stopped in Qatar on the way and arrived in India on Nov. 28.
“Indian companies are going to expand toward the West and what we want to make sure of in Maryland is that we’re part of that expansion,” said Prince George’s County Executive Rushern Baker. “This is our chance to import some of those jobs to Maryland and Prince George’s County.”
Two Indian companies announced plans to invest in Maryland, and eight Maryland businesses signed deals with Indian partners during the trip, state officials said. Jasco Nutri Foods entered into an understanding with Bowie-based Chesapeake Investments Group as part of a plan to invest $10 million in a facility on 1,500 acres in Maryland that could generate up to 100 jobs. Jubilant Life Sciences, which already has a drug manufacturing facility in Salisbury, announced plans to spend $20 million to triple its Eastern Shore warehouse space and add new jobs.
The presence of state and county officials on the trip made a difference in the message the delegation was sending, showing that businesses have the backing of their local officials, said Manish Kothari, president of Rockville-based Sheladia Associates. His architectural engineering firm signed a $3.7 million contract to design 100 miles of highway in the state of Orissa during the trip.
“We always come across competition from Europeans and other folks who have elected officials coming supporting businesses. In spite of the United States being a leader … we’re running out of excuses why our elected officials aren’t supporting us,” Kothari said, thanking O’Malley for his participation.
Businesses from other countries can get a leg up on Americans because they often travel in big delegations with their government officials, O’Malley said.
“That’s not the way we do business here but is the way business is done in these huge emerging markets, which is why the recommendation was to travel,” he said.
It helps when the government officials can be right there to explain what incentives the state and local government can offer, Baker said.
Most delegation members paid their own way on the trip, but the trade mission cost Maryland about $140,000, state officials

Then chisaki got angery
he took dabi by the collar and threw him on the ground so that he was layinf on top of him instead. Dsabi got horney oh baby yeah, so he took HIM by the collar and dragged him down so that he could smooc him easier ooooooooohhhh yeeeee
“grr” Chrisaki sdaid he then sat up and was now sitting in dabis lap. Dabi had a boner, he was also bleeding from the glass window, but that wasnrt important.
With a loud gasp Chisaki felt dabi thrust his hips up where chisaki was sitting
he was smirking but like not the sexy type of way more like the where am i and what am i doing here please help i am so horny way. Wowie that made Chisaki secretly horny too.
he was morosexual after all
Chisaki pulled the bloody burnt mcnugget off the floor and started dragging him towards his kinky bedroom
“fuck you dabi.”
“oh kinky lmao” dabi said mockingly
they reached the bed and chisaki pulled dabi up against his chest. oh nooooooo dabis hot, he thought.
“are you high?”
“what?”
“High.”
“Hi.”
goamnit, chiski was not going to waste his time on some high lavender looking fetus.

Chisaji began taking his shirt off while dabi just watched with red eyes.
little did chisaki know that dabi was secretly just very sad and had cried his etyes out earlier, so he just looked high
in reality he was just admiring chisakis abs.
“r u gonna take ur shirt off or what dickhead” Chisaki broke the silence. He crouched near dabi, like 3 meters away, since he didnt wanna get too close.

red bangs, eyes shining with excitement and trust. Percival licks his suddenly dry lips.
“I’d be honoured, Newt.”
Newt beams and sets the case down, kneeling beside it and thumbing the latches open.
“Give me a few minutes, I would like to change into some more appropriate clothing.” Graves gestures down to his pajamas, and Newt suddenly looks embarrassed.
“Did I wake you? I’m terribly sorry if I did.” The Englishman looks like he’s about to pack up his case but Graves waves him off.
“I’ve been awake for a bit, just too comfortable to change.” Newt seems pacified by this and no longer looks like he’s going to try to leave. Percival shoots one last smile at him before he retreats to his room to change into a pair of trousers and a simple white button down and black vest. He grabbed a box off of his dresser that he had been intending to give later but now would work better.
He reenters the living room where he left Newt only to find the man gone, his case lying open in the center of the floor. Percival wanders over and looks down into the case, where he finds a ladder leading down into what looks like a mess.
“Newt?” He calls down hesitantly, and the man in question appears, looking up at him with a smile and beckoning him down with a gesture. He strides off again and Percival makes his descent into the infamous case.
The end of the ladder brings him into a small hut where every surface is covered with papers filled with writings and drawings. There are magical devices strewn about, some he recognizes, most he doesn’t. Plants, herbs, and ingredients hang from the ceiling or lie bound in bundles on tables. It all seems to be organized though, in some way that goes right over Percival’s head but it’s just so very Newt that Percival loves it instantly.
Tessa let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. Afraid of her words she hummed "Mhm" She was stiff, scared of Mariah. This soft redhead instilled a lot of fear on her. She was scared if she moved then they'd never be normal again. Or at least on good standings.

was picked up after being
several weeks at sea?'
'You would be justified in calling that a mystery, at any rate,' said
Colonel Gerald.
'That is what some people here are saying, I can assure you,' she cried
quickly. 'Others say that he was merely taken aboard the steamer at St.
Helena, after having been wrecked; but that is far too unromantic.'
'Oh, yes, far too unromantic.'
'Then you do know the truth? Oh, please tell it to me. I have always
said I was sure it was true that a girl on the steamer saw him floating
on the horizon with an unusually powerful pilot-glass.'
'Rather mysterious for a fellow to be floating about on the horizon with
a pilot-glass, Lottie.'
'What a shame to make fun of me, especially as our performance is in
the cause of charity, and I want Mr. Markham's name to be the particular
attraction! Do tell me if he was picked up at sea.'
'I believe he was.'
'How really lovely! Floating about on a wreck and only restored after
great difficulty! Our room should be filled to the doors. But what I
can't understand, Colonel Gerald, is where he gets the money he lives
on here. He could not have had much with him when he was picked up. But
people say he is very rich.'
'Then no doubt people have been well informed, my dear. But all I know
is that this Mr. Markham was on his way from New Zealand, or perhaps
Australia, and his vessel having foundered, he was picked up by the
“Cardwell Castle” and brought to the Cape. He had a note for a few
hundred pounds in his pocket which he told me he got cashed here without
any difficulty, and he is going to England in a short time. Here we are
at the room where these pictures are said to be hanging. Be sure you
keep up the mystery, Lottie.'
'Ah, you have had your little chat, I hope,' said Mrs. Crawford, waiting
at the door of Government House until Colonel Gerald and Lottie had come
up.
'A delightful little chat, as all mine with Colonel Gerald are,' said
Lottie, passing over to Mr. Markham. 'Are you going inside to see the
pictures, Mrs. Crawford?'
'Not just yet, my dear; we must find Miss Gerald,' said Mrs. Crawford,
who had no particular wish to remain in close attachment to Miss Vincent
for the rest of the evening.
'Mr. Markham and I are going in,' said Lottie. 'I do so dote upon
pictures, and Mr. Markham can explain them I know; so _au revoir_.'
She kissed the dainty tips of her gloves and passed up to the small
piazza at the House, near where Major Crawford and some of the old
Indians were sitting drinking their brandy and soda and revolving many
memories.
'Let us not go in for a while, Mr. Markham,' she said. 'Let us stay here
and watch them all. Isn't it delightfully cool here? How tell me all

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) - Cryptocurrencies have been on a wild ride and the Securities and Exchange Commission is trying to rein them in once and for all.
The SEC warned on Wednesday of "potentially unlawful online platforms for trading digital assets." The federal agency said that cryptocurrency traders should only buy and sell them on exchanges registered with the SEC.
"If a platform offers trading of digital assets that are securities and operates as an 'exchange,' as defined by the federal securities laws, then the platform must register with the SEC as a national securities exchange or be exempt from registration," said the SEC.
The announcement sent Bitcoin, the most well-known and highly-priced cryptocurrency, on a tailspin, dipping 9% to below $10,000, about half the value it was trading at last year, according to Coindesk.com. Ethereum and Litecoin also made significant declines.
Cryptocurrency is a digital currency that uses a technology called blockchain. The SEC said that many cryptocurrencies, and also coins and tokens offered through a fundraising method known as an Initial Coin Offering, meet the government's definition of a security. Trading platforms for cryptocurrencies are therefore subject to federal regulations and must be registered with the SEC.
This could really shake up the market, according to Todd Kornfeld, a financial services attorney at Pepper Hamilton.
"Liquidity is important for many holders of tokens, coins and cryptocurrencies, and if this SEC activity reduces access to the existing token, coin and cryptocurrency markets, that could result in increased volatility in the trading and pricing of tokens, coins and cryptocurrencies," Kornfeld said.
The SEC also warned that some of the unregistered, and therefore illegal, online trading platforms can appear to be legitimate.
"The SEC staff has concerns that many online trading platforms appear to investors as SEC-registered and regulated marketplaces when they are not," said the SEC. "Many platforms refer to themselves as 'exchanges,' which can give the misimpression to investors that they are regulated or meet the regulatory standards of a national securities exchange."
But the volatility and the SEC scrutiny shouldn't come as a surprise to those scrutinizing these markets, said Kornfeld. The SEC warned investors last year to be on the lookout for "potential scams" involving ICOs. It busted "pump and dump" schemes, in which alleged fraudsters lure investors, take their money, and run.
"It's not surprising that this has happened," said Kornfeld. "It's a logical conclusion."
Ever got on the scales and been at a loss to explain why you've put on weight? You know you haven't been over-indulging recently but that stubborn needle either won't budge or climbs ever higher.

[Music] foreign [Music] welcome back to another haul video for the month of November 2022. it's a small one but pretty cool nonetheless let's start with the first book right here shuna's Journey from Hayao Miyazaki you might know him from Studio Ghibli Fame and all the wonderful pictures he directed and created as well as the manga that he wrote and such is the case here with shuna's journey this is a watercolored manga released back in I believe 1983 and this is the first time that it's being published in English I had no idea that it was by first second and I hope they get into the manga licensing game because they put out some great independent comics and I think they could do really well in the manga scene this particular release is absolutely gorgeous I love the paper quality the actual illustrations look great especially with the watercolor and just the overall look and feel is top-notch and easily one of the best releases of 2022 in my honest opinion next up is inspector volume 11. I was missing this to complete the second Arc of the series which I'm super excited to get into I mentioned it on the previous haul video I wanted to read up on it before the anime started next year solid looking artwork great series overall highly recommended although don't start with this volume go back with volume one here we have baked monogatari volume seven I was supposed to get more but I decided to split them up with different orders and as sensual I guess as the cover may seem I actually think this is one of the best covers of the series in manga form I really like this I love the spine work it's super cool to see the different volumes with different colors lined up it looks really nice so hopefully one of these days sooner rather than later I can read through the whole thing and give you guys a proper review on this series okay so let's start with a crab ton of viz media books you're seeing here B Stars volume 21 and somehow I keep forgetting that viz has a lot of licenses

HTML output but it didn't output it till generate all thumbnails and I wanted to display the thumbnails as they're created so I tried to put it to where it would create them individually but the problem was it was still treating them all at the same time because was looping and it was just even though I was calling the script multiple times it was calling them all at the same time so it was still slowing down the system so basically it was generating all the thumbnail at the same time slowing each one down individually so what I need to do is use that script and have a second script that just outputs the thumbnails and have that constantly checked and I'm pretty sure that will work so the one script would be creating the thumbnails and another script will be checking repeatedly the thumbnails are created and displaying them and I'm pretty sure that that will work so look for a follow-up video and I apologize anyone who was watching that video and how horribly I went and just I just couldn't think and I felt I you know just doing it live I was just thinking oh I need to come up with something but I couldn't think straight but now that I'm out walking and thinking I think I've come up with a solution and when I get home I'll have a look at getting that working thanks for watching and I hope you have a great day

those short-of-leg who want a first bike.
So what's the problem?
We just weren't very impressed by it the last time we tested it, citing vibration, mild performance and a generally limited appeal that would keep it from being a good all-around kind of bike for a more experienced rider.
Suzuki Boulevard S40 $4,399
This is another favorite, and why does it seem that all these budget bikes have been around longer than the Family Circus comic strip?
Well, it could have something to do with the fact that the S40 -- formerly known as the Savage 650 -- is a good, wholesome motorcycle, with a character-ful, responsive 650cc thumper motor and a seat height so low your wallet chain might make sparks. It looks like a cool little drag bike, is cheap as a box of drywall screws and has a low-maintenance belt drive. What's wrong with it? Not a thing. We just forgot to include it. So sue us.
Suzuki GS500F $5,199
Editor Ets-Hokin figured this would be a good bike to compare to the Hyosung Comet, as they are priced about the same, weigh the same and even look like they share a frame (they don't really).
If you're surprised the Hyosung comes from Korea, you'll be even more surprised this one comes from Spain, where Suzuki builds them for the European market. It uses the same frame and motor the GS500 has used since the Neolithic era, wrapped in sexy GSX-R-like bodywork. It would have been a good comparison, as it would really highlight the value of the GT650, but alas, Suzuki told us they didn't have one available for the period of the test. We blame society.
Kawasaki KLR650 $5,199
Oh, Swamp Thing, we hardly knew ye. Now in its last year of production after a mere 20 model years (Ford only made the Model T for 19), the KLR is a hell of a thing, a "tri-purpose" bike that can tour, commute or have fun in the dirt. When the apocalypse comes, two things will be left on Earth; the KLR650 and roaches. It's fun to ride, has a fuel range like the Spirit of St. Louis and can take abuse like Fonzie's liver.
But you knew that, didn't you? We gave it a lot of coverage in 2005, but we left it out this time, because it will be soon replaced by a much-improved KLR model. Stay tuned for an intro report.
Kawasaki Vulcan 500 LTD $4,999
This is a sweet little cruiser that actually uses the Ninja 500R's motor to get it here and there.
It's light, sporty and easy-handling. It's a pretty good bike that should be considered by the short-of-leg who desire a more-sporty than average cruiser.
Let's get right into this evaluation thing, with the Kawasaki Ninja 500R. Kawasaki has been selling this middleweight sportbike since, well, forever. When it first appeared in 1987, The EX500 was pretty high-tech for a middleweight sportbike, with a counterbalanced, liquid-cooled, dual overhead cam motor that was essentially half the fearsome ZX-10 Ninja motor.

Both are studying you curiously, but a happy cry from the left takes your attention away. Sitting at the table, looking at you happily, is the baby. You brighten at this and look at **Toriel** and **Miss Dravern** for permission before dashing to her. You smile at the **baby** and sit down in front.
“ **H i , _i t ’ s n i c e t o s e e y o u a g a i n ._** ”
You get a happy gurgle in response and focus all your attention on her.
The two other children look at each other disgruntled. Here they were against their will, and this weird kid didn’t even wanna play with them? **Miss Dravern** chuckled, and **Toriel** looked between the two children and **Frisk** distressed.
“Will they get along?”
**Miss Dravern** waved her off.
“I’m sure it will be fine Miss **Toriel** , they only need a bit to get used to each other. **Jade** will have to go down for a nap soon anyway, so **Frisk** will end up playing with **Onyx** and **Esmerelda** at some point.”
**Toriel** watched her child interact with the **baby** , making wild gestures to describe, something.
“I certainly hope so.”
She certainly hoped so.
“ **Frisk**?”
You paused, turning your attention to **Toriel** for a moment.
“I will be leaving now, okay?”
Your face paled, you had completely forgotten she was leaving! You dashed up to hug **Toriel** again, **baby** forgotten, much to her distress. She let out a couple of upset shouts, which you looked back at her silently.
**_I t ’ s o k a y b a b y , I j u s t n e e d t o m a k e s u r e T o r i e l s t a y s w i t h m e ._ **
**Baby** understands your silent plea and calms down while you bury yourself back in **Toriel’s** dress. **Miss** **Dravern** blinks, then throws on her biggest smile and pops down to your level.
“ **Frisk**? I know you’re worried, but take it from me, **Toriel** will be alright.”
You shake your head and tighten your grip on Toriel’s dress.
**Miss** **Dravern** and **Toriel** look at each other.
“There is pie in the fridge.”
You hesitate, then shake your head, but the two women catch your hesitation and chuckle.
“Mom?”
The mothers turn their heads to the young Draverns, who have come slightly closer.
“Can we try?”
They looked at each other and shrugged.
“Go ahead you two.”
You flinch away at the touch of a small warm hand to your shoulder.
“Your name’s **Frisk** right?”
You don’t respond. The taller one sighs.
"That's pathetic, Gerard. Stop that shit. What the fuck is wrong with you, dude? Just leave me alone, I will calm down by myself. Just go do whatever you want to do and leave me the fuck alone." Frank said, pulling away from his touch and going to their bedroom, trying to ignore Gerard. He slammed

a broken feather hitting the ground. Light and dark, the perfect balance. The perfect woman.
She stood watching him with a smile, her eyes telling him she could see his heart swell and watched as his world collashed.
The sun from the window shone on her raven black hair. The gentle waves falling to caress her waist. The contrast with her warm, rich, skin overpowering. Her sharp, defined features clashing and yet perfectly complimented by her deep red lip and the knee long, blood red dress that caressed down her body. She was a vision of perfection, a goddess sent from the sky to bless his very eyes.
“Hello, hello? Can you hear me?”
Asmodeus’ eyes shot up. The beautiful woman was watching with an amused gleam in her eyes.
“Sorry, I’m so sorry. Can I take your order?” he asked refusing to look into the woman’s eyes and risk getting lost in their ice blue depths.
He took her order and walked away to prepare it, his cheeks now permanently stained a deep red. He had to go about his work as usual, even if his eyes followed her every move.
He saw when she stood up from her table and made her way up to the counter.
She stood so close, he could feel the comfort of her blinding presence and yet he knew that he couldn’t afford to look up. He knew he couldn’t afford looking into her eyes, the danger of losing himself was all too great.
She placed a small and delicate hand on the counter, next to his, and with a brush of a little finger over his, he was lost. As quick as she had come, like a comet in the night, she was gone. In the time Asmodeus closed his eyes to savor her touch and the feel of her silk smooth skin against his own, the mesmerising woman was gone.
He looked down at his hand, now alone on the cold hard counter, and as the same deep loneliness and despair he had known creeped back tenth fold. She had been the sun and in her absence left only darkness.
It was at that moment that he noticed her bill laying on the counter. Where her hand had been before. What he noticed most of all was the phone number printed in a twistedly cruel and yet hauntingly beautiful touch, along with one single word. Amara.
Previews for upcoming movies played on the screen. None of them looked interesting so far. A preview for the “Detective Pikachu” movie came up after one about some LEGO movie. It looked pretty cute, honestly. Maybe he and Thor could go see it, as Thor was the living embodiment of Pikachu; cute, kind, and his powers were electricity.
Bucky leaned over and whispered to Steve that Pikachu reminded him of Thor, except Pikachu wasn’t a big dork when it came to his boyfriend. Steve pinched Bucky on the arm and told him to shut up, the tops of his ears a light pink. Sam snickered and sipped

your character overall, which is a huge improvement. Since right now, crafted HQ gear at the level sync threshold are better than any gear you'd get from tomestones.
Blows my mind you’re even being upvoted when your entire post is speculation worded as fact. ‘’Brian thinks...’’, you have no idea what Bryan Callen is thinking, you completely judged his character and personality by projecting your own thoughts pretending they’re his. You have zero clue how his and Joe’s personal relationship is outside of a few hours of podcast episodes. I listen to both TFATK and obviously JRE. Brian has talked about Joe several times since Joe mad fun of the birthday thing with nothing but praise. There’s many reasons Callen hasn’t been on JRE. His own podcasts, touring, family, being on a television show. A redditor thinking he’s sensitive and doesn’t want to lose his friends likely isn’t one of them. Ari, Joe, Tom Segura, Bert Kreischer all shit on each other all the time and they’re still great friends. Not everyone is as sensitive as you. And not everyone is an asshole for enjoying fucking with other people and dishing it back. You speak in a lot of absolutes when everything you say is purely subjective.
where did she say she donated 10k to this fund, though? it's not on her instagram, snapchat, or twitter, so i'm not sure where this came from. The only post i saw mentioned that her ebay auction made 10k and she donated that to different charities, but that was before this whole thing went down. And just because she said she donated doesn't mean that she donated to this specific GoFundMe. I think you're reaching here for a reason to dislike her.
This may not be what you are asking to hear...he's doing what he thinks is right for his kids and their mom. Whether or not it turns out to be "right" or "wrong" is yet to be seen. As far as your relationship with him, sometimes partner's priorities change due to life's circumstances. It's harsh, it hurts, and it sucks. But it happens. Your partner has much to figure out, there are 6 (?) children involved, and the mother of these 6/an ex wife. As a parent his first priority should always be based on the needs of his kids, not their wants but their needs. Yes, it sounds pretty f-ed up that the situation got to this point where everything changed overnight. He can't phone in his responsibilities. Unfortunately, this is often how parenthood works. My heart goes out to you as there is no easy answer. If you don't see yourself fully committed to being another responsible adult in the lives of the kids and accepting the mom's presence be honest with yourself and then w him. You need to think about what you need and want, how you see your life playing out. Take care of you.
It still looks like a tough matchup, but I agree that these new, more aggressive eldrazi decks look easier than the midrangey/ramps ones we've seen

waved his arms about in his sleep, almost desperate to make his own wings comfy, they could fall off at any minute. Enjolras took one last deep drag from his cigarette, putting it out and setting the butt of it onto his ashtray. The window was left open while Enjolras stepped over to the other, grabbing the glasses off of his end table to place them onto the dresser. A light, quiet laugh made his friend stir, but Enjolras was quite certain he was still asleep.
umbrellas
**Author's Note:**
* For LINK.
"Sun's not shining today, huh, Princess?"
"I told you not to call me that in public, Hak!" Yona glares as she sifts through her school bag for the umbrella that she knows Kija stuffed in it this morning. The man freaks out about her leaving the house in slightly less than perfect weather.
Her companion, the dark-haired and smirking Hak, who likes to pick her up from school because no one trusts her not to get kidnapped on the way home, twinkles his eyes at her but does not apologize for addressing her with the nickname. The clouds above do not twinkle, but rumble. The warning sound of the sky has Yona cursing as she continues to search for her umbrella and keep an eye out for the bus which should have arrived by now.
She finally finds the umbrella and digs it out triumphantly, shouting, "Hah! I told you it was here, Hak! You just have to have patience."
"Yes," Hak begins dryly. "I was the one who has been slamming my bag against the ground and cursing my lack of umbrella for the past ten minutes. How silly of me."
Yona growls and opens the umbrella, mumbling about cocky bodyguards and how they will annoy her to death one day. When he begins to reach for the open umbrella, Yona growls again. "Back off! I'll hold it today."
Hak pauses midmotion, his hand suspended in air, then slowly draws back. His eyes begin to twinkle more, if that's even possible. "Be my guest, Princess. I hope you enjoy your tippy toes."
Yona promptly stands on her toes and charges up, taking Hak by surprise when she places a firm kiss on his lips. She coyly smiles at his - finally - shocked expression as she brings the umbrella over his head. "I daresay it won't be the last time I have to be on them."

This book won't come out soon enough! I am dying to read what will happen next!! After two nights of no sleep - Aaaa Clockwork Prince was AMAZING! Can't wait for the Princess :)
Oh my god!! never seen it coming. Cassandra Clare really is a genius! Freaking amazing. This book is magic in its purest form <3
My whole review on my blog
An inspiring book! Really enjoyed it!
I absolutely F-LOVED this book! Ares won my heart from the start as the big, bad alpha who deep down just needs some-one or -two to love him. This was HOT and steamy and full of action. Did not disappoint me one bit. Could not put the thing down!
A high concept approach worthy of the movies melding the paranoia of senior executives with that of the murderer on the run. Disturbing and funny.
Absolutely perfect book. Oh Josh, you never gave up!
I usually don't go for femdom stories, they just really aren't my thing, but I couldn't help wanting to read this knowing that there were elements of erotic hypnosis. I've heard of this but have never read anything with that in it so I was very curious.
I ended up really enjoying this story! The lengths that Matthew goes to in order to please his Mistress is so sweet and commendable. I really enjoyed the entire erotic hypnosis thing and found it very interesting to hear Matt's inner thoughts of how he is feeling as his Mistress takes him deeper and deeper under her command. I also thoroughly enjoyed the party they go to so that she can show off his new found "skills". I thought it was very well done, extremely erotic, and unlike anything else I've read before. I originally gave this 3 stars just due to it not being my normal kind of erotica story, but that really seemed unfair as I was typing up this review. The story and writing are well done and kept me interested and entertained. I would recommend this author and would also recommend this read to anyone who enjoys femdom stories.
I received a copy of this story for free in exchange for my honest review, through BDSM Group Read2Review
Lovely and fun, but altogether too predictable for my tastes.
I'm a big fan of this split timeline kind of novel and enjoyed some elements here very much. However, I did wonder if there weren't a few too many characters and storylines jostling for space with the result that everything felt a bit rushed. This feels to me like two novels squished into one which is a bit of a shame.
Another home run for one of my favorite authors from the GLBT community. A sweet romance mixed with some panty melting M/M sex, another perfectly written story line with characters you can fall in love

way possible. And using you. Don't let her do it anymore.
The problem is that you've fallen for the term 'weasel words', where you believe that two words that are vaguely similar are actually inherently the same things. For instance: Cleaning products = Dangerous Chemicals Abortion = Killing babies Guns = Protection/criminal tools (depending on philosophical viewpoint) Babies= Potential psychopaths Muslims = Potential terrorists Criminals = Murderers and rapists. I'll concede the point that illegal immigrants break the law the moment they enter this country illegally, and it may grant them "criminal" title, but raising the notion that illegal immigrants are equally as bad as the felons and rapists that share the title 'criminal', is being bamboozled by political weasel words. There's a clear distinct difference between an illegal immigrant who gets a job at Walmart, hurts no one, and the guy who robs the Walmart, and shoots the cashier. That distinction is important because it leads to a prejudice towards people because of their papers. Remember: the law isn't necessarily moral. Segregation was legal once. You also complain that legal immigrants should be upset that illegal immigration exists, like its a diservice to their work to get here. The problem with that idea is that it's opinionated. Some legal immigrants want illegal migrants deport, many don't. And I'm certain there's an even larger portion of legal immigrants that don't even care. The reality of the matter is: *opinion doesn't matter when laws should always exist to benefit society as a whole.* The opinion of legal immigrants who aren't even citizens shouldn't matter when deciding what brings the best results for the country. To be honest, I'm not comfortable with so many people breaking the law, the problem is that it's far too late to enforce it now. We had a decade to fix it, procrastinated, and now we have ten million illegal migrants here. Deporting them now would be a clusterfuck of bugetry wastes which would benefit us very little, and harm a lot of local economies reliant on immigrant communities. The reality of the matter is, an immigration reform and a pathway for more immigrants would help us, so that they could stay and pay taxes legally.
It's great that you're keeping an open mind! It's not for everyone, but I'd definitely recommend trying to find something you'd both enjoy. What would you like to see? Something rough and impersonal? Loving and romantic (this type is generally recommended from what I've seen for people who don't watch much porn to begin with)? I'd save anything heavy or fetish-like for later, personally, unless you're both into that sort of thing. You'll have to decide for yourself the genders- there is great porn and crappy porn of all genders. If you think you'll be more turned on by a certain sexuality (lesbian, gay, straight) then that's what you should look for. If you're a straight female or male, don't be worried if you're turned on by watching the same-sex. It's perfectly normal and doesn't change your identity. I know plenty of straight men

is, How do I work without attaching to it ?
It's pretty much an either/or deal: You can either attach to a specific outcome, such as exam results, or put your effort into non-attachment according to buddhist dhamma.
To my understanding you can't do both, which can put us in a bit of a difficult existential quandary: The question whether you should be attached to your studies or not is only for you to determine.
In case you want to develop a buddhist practice, getting into the meditation called anapanasati is a good start. Also, it is a meditation that can yield good consequences for a lifetime.
This is a good start:

TEVO Tarantula Z-Axis Lowering Too Far After Endstop Triggered
A z-axis homing issue is giving me an ulcer. I'm hoping someone can help with this.
As per usual, after the Z endstop is triggered on my TEVO Tarantula the gantry raises a bit then slowly lowers back down to the z=0 point established by the trigger. However, the gantry is now lowering well past the point triggered by the endstop. It's forcing the hotend to press down into the bed, and I need to reset the printer to avoid any damage.
I'm at a loss to understand why, and it's making re-leveling the bed impossible. Once I have the bed leveled, an auto home grinds the hotend into the bed.
I've done some cable management in the past couple of days but everything is connected where it should be. The endstops are responding, I've even manually triggered them so I know they're working, but the Z refuses to stop where it should.
I've printed at least once since organizing my cables but the bed wasn't level and then I noticed this issue when homing the Z for re-leveling.
For context, I've had several projects print successfully recently so things had been working fairly well. I haven't made any changes to the Marlin software since

et al., 2016;Kraemer et al., 2017). This ''orphan disease'' is more often recognized in Asians, especially in Japan and Korea. However, it also appears in Caucasians. In Europe and the USA it is very rare, epidemiology data are not known. Per the definition, Moyamoya disease (MMD) is the term for bilateral disease without any other manifestation former thought being idiopathic (Fukui, 1997;Bersano et al., 2016). In contrast to this, Moyamoya syndrome (MMS) is associated with other diseases or states like neurofibromatosis type 1, trisomy 21, vasculitis or states after skull radiation (Fukui, 1997;Guey et al., 2015).
The above mentioned association of facial dysmorphisms are only described in MMS, especially in genetic syndromes (Guey et al., 2015) like trisomy 21, loss of BRCC3 deubiquitinating enzyme (Miskinyte et al., 2011), Smith-Magenis syndrome (Girirajan et al., 2007), PHACE(S) syndrome (Heyer et al., 2006), Majewski osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II (MOPD II) (Kilic et al., 2012), Seckel syndrome (Rahme et al., 2010) and Alagille syndrome (Rocha et al., 2012). Facial dysmorphism associated with MMS seems to be caused by the syndromes MMS is associated with (such as Smith-Magenis syndrome Girirajan et al., 2007) and not part of the MMS spectrum.
A direct relationship between idiopathic Moyamoya disease with dysmorphic facial changes is not known yet. The only study which assumes to an association between Moyamoya disease and cephalocephalic parameters is from Qureshi et al. (2014). In Quereshi's study 13 patients who are named as having Moyamoya disease are compared with 39 matched controls (Qureshi et al., 2014). This working group found a significantly greater bi-parietal diameter, a significantly greater fronto-occipital diameter and a shorter distance between bregma and occiput in Moyamoya disease patients compared with controls. However, it has to be criticized that those patients with angiographically confirmed Moyamoya angiopathy were defined as idiopathic Moyamoya disease just in absence of trisomy 21. No other clinical data like CSF data or exclusion of NF1 or other genetic syndromes were found in this article.
Thus, this study was intended to clarify if also in those patients with Moyamoya disease thought to be idiopathic due to detailed exclusion of differential diagnoses distinctive facial features could be found. Detecting any typical distinctive facial features also in MMD and not only in rare genetic syndromes with MMS would allow potential pathophysiologic conclusions and would enable physician to recognize this rare disease earlier.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The study was approved by the local ethics committee (no.: 03-2357) and informed written consent was obtained from all patients. A total of 45 individuals with MMD diagnosed as idiopathic participated in this study. All patients were examined via MRI and conventional angiography. Adult patients with bilateral idiopathic MMD listed in the database of the Moyamoya outpatient clinic at the Alfried-Krupp Hospital in Essen, Germany were considered for the present study. The patients met the diagnostic criteria of the ''Research Committee on Spontaneous occlusion of the Circle of Willis'' of the Japanese Ministry of Health (Fukui, 1997). Patients with Moyamoya syndrome were excluded. Moyamoya syndrome was diagnosed in patients with the following conditions or diseases: after

sitter and money for pizza. Mina took Saki and Nico home from ice skating, so the driver could take a day off, along with her own daughter, the three having fun singing karaoke in the car. Besides each other, Yujin was their best friend. Mina and Sana found it cute they were best friends and now their daughters were.
They get home last, Hyemi locking them out of the house as a prank. The two just crawled in through the dog door, barking obnoxiously like puppies and mimicking their old dog. Hana and Hotaru had gotten home before them and had already finished their homework. Not long after the two kids crawled in through the dog door, Hyemi left through the front door.
Hana watched her older sister leave. Hyemi was so damn irresponsible.

“Shouldn’t you be watching your sisters?” Hyemi rolled her eyes and took a long drag of her vape pen. Mango flavored. Huh.
“Twerps can watch themselves.” Hyemi responded, watching the smoke disperse in the dark air.
“Your parents would be real proud of you, huh?” Her companion asked.
“Trust me, I’m the disappointment.” Hyemi rolled her eyes, looking at the dried paint on her hands.
“The oldest is never the disappointment.”
“Welcome to my life.” Hyemi answered. “I should get home before my mom does.”
“Bye Hyemi, same time next week?” Hyemi smiled at her friend.
“Bring me a new flavor next time, mango isn’t a great flavor for smoking.” Hyemi tucked her vape pen into her pocket. It wasn’t a long trip home, but the cold December air was making things all the more miserable. Funny, her parents were as wealthy as wealthy can be and here she was taking the bus home. Maybe her moms would be proud of her, for not flashing their money like some people would. Maybe they would be disappointed, they had a million other reasons to be. Hyemi didn’t really want to think about it.
Truthfully speaking, she didn’t really care either way.

“Hotaru go away.” Saki complained as her twin sat next to her. “I’m not talking to you.”
“Grow up Saki,” Hotaru rolled her eyes. “Your being immature again.”
“Your being immature you butt face.” Saki turned away.
“I’m trying to make up with you before mom and mama get home so we don’t get in trouble.” Hotaru sighed.
“You mean so I don’t get in trouble?” Saki rolled her eyes.
“Saki stop,” Hana butt in from her position on the floor next to Nico. The two of them were sprawled out in front of Hana’s laptop, child robot sets parts surrounding them. Nico was playing with the lego robots she had gotten from her Aunt Jeongyeon for Christmas, Hana being the one to program them.
“Stop what?”
“Just stop.” Hana warned.
“Why does every one here hate me?” Saki complained.
“We don’t hate you,” Hotaru rolled her eyes. “Stop being difficult and talk to me.”
“No.” Saki scooted away from her sister on the couch.
“Fine then.” Hotaru turned away.

the redhead is handsome – and the charming smile that pulls at his mouth strangely seems to make my own lips want to smile too – I have no intention to make coin that way. 'No, thanks,' I say shortly.
A frown comes across his brow. 'I'm not asking you to actually sell yourself, lass,' he says. 'Even if you did, I don't think I could afford the price someone of your beauty would command.'
I feel a blush stalk over my cheeks, more with the obviousness of the line than with anything else.
The redhead grins. 'That was bad, I know,' he admits. 'Never mix whore jokes with pick up lines.'
'It might have worked on a whore,' I say, my mouth curving into a smile before I can help it.
'I'll try it sometime and let you know.' His green eyes laugh. 'You got a name, lass?'
I falter. Grelod rarely kept records of the children who stayed at Honorhall, but I know it will soon be common knowledge that she is dead, and it will only take Constance or one of the other children giving up my name and the fact I disappeared on the night of the murder for people to put two and two together. I realise I have to leave that life, that person, behind. _But a name?_ I panic for a moment, my mind blank. I take a quick sip of my wine to fill the pause, and as I do so my eyes land upon a picture on the wall, a flock of birds in flight, and suddenly I think of the wrens and sparrows that flew past the orphanage while we played in the courtyard, when I wished I had wings to fly.
'Wren,' I say. 'Like the bird.'
'Brynjolf.' His eyes flicker over me. 'And are you new in Riften, Wren? I don't think I've seen you around before.'
'I've lived here for a bit,' I say vaguely.
'But just never gone outside?' he says.
_Beyond running errands for Grelod, attending executions and the occasional successful break out for a few hours, no._ The thought that I have never left the orphanage for any length of time – never slept anywhere other than my hard bed in the dormitory for the past ten years – makes me suddenly defensive. 'And you have eyes everywhere to know that, do you?' I say sarcastically.
Brynjolf laughs. 'There are eyes everywhere, lass. Not all are mine. The ones I do have somehow never spotted you before, though.'
'Maybe you just weren't looking in the right places then,' I say abruptly.
'Well, I've found you now and that's good enough for me.' The smile lingers at his mouth. 'And good for you too, if you want work.'
'What work, exactly?' I say, wary, but we are interrupted before Brynjolf can answer.
The serving girl appears with our drinks. She's pretty, a rosy cheeked plump Nord with ruby red lips and hair like ebony. I notice the way she leans her body at an angle to set

Update:
After going over it in the comments it looks like your issue for not being able to start the program is your while loop in your showData method.
Here is a rewritten version of your code. It should start now thought I think you may have some other issues to work out with displaying data. I also moved studentDL into the class as a class attribute so it can be worked with internally. You were calling Gui.studentDL instead something like self.studentDL and I would say using it as a class attribute is better here.

first plan for this Stage, I wanted to spend six weeks on the
island. On the earlier trip, I had planned to do a figure eight tour of
the island during two months. However, with all of the problems during
that visit I only completed half of it, in the shape of a backwards S.
This time I wanted to finish the figure eight and six weeks would have
been more than enough time to do that and to take things a little easy in
the process. However, due to my late arrival in Africa, and the addition
of Ethiopia to the Stage, there would apparently have not been nearly
enough time for that. Instead, I was forced to cut something out of the
Stage route, and a part of Madagascar had to be lost, though that was an
extremely disappointing decision. So instead of my relaxing ride down the
length of the island I had only two weeks available to go halfway.
Another tough decision was which half to do this time. Both the north and
south halves have some compelling places to visit, but in the end I chose
the southern half, even though I spent more time there during the first
tour.
Then, just after I had made my plans to get there, and a week or so
before I was due to leave, I learned that the ship I was scheduled to set
sail on six weeks hence, in Durban, bound for South America, would not be
stopping in Africa after all. Needless to say, all of my plans were
thrown into chaos. Had I realized just how much longer I would be in
Africa, I probably would have been able to do the whole six weeks on the
island after all. But, at the time, I had absolutely no idea exactly how
and when I would be leaving Africa, so I could not commit to that long of
a stay. I did add a few extra days to the visit, however, which ended up
making a big difference.
I have described much of the physical and cultural aspects of the country
in the section of my Web site for the earlier tour, so this time I will
only focus on what I found to be different this time around. I expected
that there may have been some noticeable changes in the country in the
three years between my visits. That feeling arose from the fact that when
I visited the first time the country was only one year past a political
crisis caused when the countrys then-president, the old guard-style
Didier Ratsiraka lost a close election to the more contemporary Marc
Ravalomanana, and refused to accept defeat, nearly causing a civil war.
After three years under Ravalomanana I expected that more aspects of the
outside world would have penetrated the often-isolated or forgotten
country. In general, I felt that this indeed proved to be true, as I saw
several things that were not present the first time around. Most of the
changes seemed to have taken place

A 3.5 MM POLARIMETRIC SURVEY OF RADIO-LOUD ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
1892010 JULY. 2010 JulyarXiv:0911.5523v4 [astro-ph.CO] Preprint typeset using L A T E X style emulateapj v. 11/12/01Subject headings: Galaxies: active -galaxies: jets -BL Lacertae objects: general -quasars: general - polarization -surveys
We present the results from the first large (> 100 source) 3.5 mm polarimetric survey of radio loud active galactic nuclei (AGN). This wavelength is favorable within the radio-mm range for measuring the intrinsic linearly polarized emission from AGN, since in general it is only marginally affected by Faraday rotation of the electric vector position angle, and depolarization. The I, Q, U, and V Stokes parameter observations were performed with the XPOL polarimeter at the IRAM 30 m Telescope on different observing epochs from July 2005 (when most of the measurements were made) to October 2009. Our sample consists of 145 flat-radio-spectrum AGN with declination > −30 • (J2000.0) and flux density > ∼ 1 Jy at ∼ 86 GHz, as measured at the IRAM 30 m Telescope from 1978 to 1994. This constraint on the radio spectrum causes our sample to be dominated by blazars, which allows us to conduct new statistical studies on this class of high-luminosity, relativistically-beamed emitters. We detect linear and circular polarization (above minimum 3σ levels of ∼1.5 %, and ∼0.3 %) for 76 %, and 6 % of the sample, respectively. We find a clear excess in degree of linear polarization detected at 86 GHz with regard to that at 15 GHz by a factor of ∼ 2. Over our entire source sample, the luminosity of the jets is anti-correlated with the degree of linear polarization. Consistent with previous findings claiming larger Doppler factors for brighter γ-ray blazars, quasars listed in our sample, and in the Fermi Large Area Telescope Bright Source Catalog (LBAS), show larger luminosities than non-LBAS ones, but our data do not allow us to confirm the same for BL Lac objects. We do not find a clear relation between the linear polarization angle and the jet structural position angle for any source class in our sample. We interpret this as the consequence of a markedly non-axisymmetric character of the 3 mm emitting region in the jets. We find that intrinsic circular polarization is the most likely mechanism for generation of the circular polarization detected in our observations. Our new data can be used to estimate the 3.5 mm AGN contribution to measurements of

do was make games,” Schaefer laughs. “We didn’t really give it a lot of thought at the time. We didn’t want to get regular jobs, so, obviously, we had to make another company. So we sat there just talking about ideas, before we hit on what we wanted to do. It only took a couple of days, really.”
The new freedom – and responsibility – was daunting, but the group preferred that to the deal they were getting at Blizzard. So it was settled: the new company would be called Flagship Studios, and the idea they hit on at Brevik’s house was what would become Hellgate: London. According to Roper, London was chosen for its association with the Knights Templar and its extensive Tube network. And, initially at least, their goal was fairly straightforward and sensible.
“Our fundamental, primary idea,” Schaefer says, “and our most crystallised thought, was to introduce firstperson shooter elements into a proper MMO. We wanted to make an MMO world where you could play it like you were playing Counter-Strike, or any firstperson shooter. That involved some cool mechanics – the immersiveness of the worlds, that camera mechanic – and just working that into the MMO.”
Flagship had been attracting unpleasant rumours for some time, but in August 2008 the company officially closed its doors. Hellgate’s concept artist, Jason Felix, remembers: “Someone from upper management had a brief talk with some of us, saying: ‘Just hear what they have to say, but everything will be fine’. It was weird because at that moment, it was a statement of reassurance – but yet it forecast a negative feeling. I expected the following day that perhaps half the company would be laid off, but to have the entire staff unemployed was shocking.”
Hellgate: London was simply a case of trying to do too much with not enough, but can you really blame them? Coming from Blizzard, the development land of milk and honey, to a new studio and limited funds was always going to be a shock, and it’s commendable that they tried to create something unique. Flagship has been punished for its ambition in accordance with history. You have to hope that future games from the fractured team will lead them to the glory some of them once knew, and they all deserve.
Hellgate London - Interview, Hellgate II Confirmed? @ GameBanshee
GB: Hellgate's unique blend of third-person shooter combat, RPG mechanics, and numbers-heavy item and modding systems have given it a very devoted fanbase over the years. Have you ever considered developing a Hellgate sequel, either in-house or contracted through a third-party developer? If so, what are the odds that a sequel will eventually become a reality?
Namo: Of course we’ve considered developing a Hellgate sequel in-house. Now the developing is ongoing. For more information, we’ll notice about that over time.

as ahistorical, universal entities occurring at different times and in different cultures. But this is incompatible with a view of sexuality as culturally constructed, if by "construction" we mean the socially ordained patterns for meeting individual biological sexual needs that cultures establish. Yet there is a tendency to conflate the "universal" or "essentialist" and the "social constructionist" approaches and to use contemporary western concepts of sex, gender, and sexuality as standards for comparing all other cultures.
Cross-cultural material is often used to support claims about contemporary western homosexuality. [...] As she suggests, this approach is problematic for two reasons, the most obvious being that quite different cultural phenomena are compared when they are viewed in terms of the theorist's starting point. Second, this approach isolates cultural characteristics from their contexts. For example, [...] Jeffrey Weeks asks, "Why should one even begin to contemplate the notion that the berdache has anything at all to do with homosexuality in our terms?" (Weeks in Plummer 1981:48).
[...]
Social, and specifically sexual, life is embedded in the organization of society -- an organization that gives rise to a variety of cultural forms. The cultural construction of gender and sexuality must be seen in terms of the sexual division of labor, subsistence patterns, social relations, and male-female relations. Within this context, ideology is not an arbitrary, discrete force -- rather, it serves to reproduce and perpetuate social forms, behaviors, and individuals suitable to a particular mode of production.
[...]
Fudamental changes in economic patterns disrupted many aspects of native social life including gender and sexuality."

** spoiler alert **
Mia is a seventeen year old girl caught in limbo when the car carrying her and her family is involved in a fatal crash. Stuck between dead and alive, she discovers she can observe her gathering relatives, and learns that all the other members of her family have died except her.
Accepting she has a choice - live or die - Mia hesitates between the two, wondering what she has to live for now her family is dead. If she dies, she won't have the pain of losing her family for real when she wakes.
Except...she realises her family is more than the people she lives with. Her family is also anyone who cares for her, her boyfriend, her mother's best friends, grandparents.
But it's her boyfriend Mia feels most torn over. If she dies, she won't have to deal with losing him to rock stardom while she moves to New York to perform at an elite music school.
Grief over losing someone is like that...making choices as to whether you want to feel again after someone close dies. Making a choice to love someone again, risking yourself losing them again. It's part of defining who you are: loss and coming to terms with that loss.
I liked Mia's family and Mia. I liked the way they weren't dysfunctional, but they weren't perfect either; they way they argued and bickered, and still loved each

In the end the whole thing cost me around $15,000 and six months of work. I know it’s acliche at this point, but seriously: If I can do it, you can too."
"I have never built anything. Ever. I've helped paint a few houses on mission trips and I helped install some plastic lattice once, but that's about it. My background is in graphic design and illustration. I always wanted to build a tiny house and I always wanted to travel. So I spent years playing around with tiny house designs in my spare time. Ultimately I decided upon a school bus because I thought "Hey, there's already for walls and a roof. Throw some wood and some light bulbs in there and call it a day." How foolish of me. I ended up doing a complete build on the back of the bus. I learned how to work with wood, metal, electricity, and water. I did everything myself with the exception of a few metal parts that I will mention, not to mention the help of some very awesome friends who gave me a hand when asked. The school bus is also a terrible vehicle to travel around the country in. It's bulky, expensive to operate, and expensive to service. But this is my school bus."
Rend
Hometown: Edmonton, AB, CanadaGenre: Alternative Rock
Releasing a new single, touring across Canada, opening for USS, Dear Rouge and more are only several highlights from Rend’s 2015 experience. 2014 brought Rend’s 4 time Edmonton Music Award nominated EP “Winter to Summer” the 2014 EMA Rock Recording of the year and the 2014 Rawlco Radio Breakout Artist of the Year award. This Canadian, 4 piece, electrifying alternative rock band is currently working on their next record.
Picture a dash of Muse, a layer of Metric, topped off with The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. When you listen to Rend you get a new experience with every song. You will hear driving rhythms, Zeppelin worthy guitar solos, synth pop hook lines, and dynamic, soulful vocals.
Rend: To tear apart so you are never the same again.
To put it simply this band wants to create music that inspires, excites, and stands apart. Their new single “Skin and Bones” showcases their unique alternative rock sound mixing soulful vocals with rhythmic loops, cinematic pulsing synth, gritty bass and electric guitar.
Since 2010 Rend has played countless shows and have honed a captivating and inspiring experience. Performing live is one of the most important aspects for Rend. Being able to let go, connect to the audience and make great music is their passion. To really understand what Rend is about one needs to come to a show and see the energy, musicality, chemistry and skill this band possesses.
"I got the chance to see Rend perform live last month during Indie Week right here in Toronto, and I was blown away. Hailing from Edmonton, Alberta, Rend is the new hope for Canadian rock."

This subreddit is legendary for having a massive entitlement streak whenever the grumps make a minor style change or don't like popular games.

I don't blame you one bit for reading the article that way - it was intentionally misleading. But the only connection the author mentions (in an intentionally unclear way) is that a researcher on Facebook's project at one point worked on a totally different study funded by the DoD. Ironically, the article hid information to manipulate people's emotions (what Facebook researched).
You've highlighted my point within my comment (that you responded to)... I'd expect religions influence folks across the spectrum. In which case your position of "2% of staff time for lobbying efforts" and questioning if you should be "taxed for taking a political stance" is reasonable. The overhead of forcing orgs to track that 2% isn't really worth it, etc. &#x200B; But if, across the country as a whole, a significant portion of religious expenditures goes toward a particular political party... and if a significant proportion of "religious" organizations are devoting significantly more than 2%... then we have to discuss how to deal with the problem. &#x200B; My confusion is why religions have gotten themselves into a position where this needs to be debated. &#x200B; And all those "significant" and "ifs" above just beg for some research

Dayara bugyal restoration model in the alpine and subalpine region of the Central Himalaya: a step toward minimizing the impacts
012345678910.1038/s41598-021-95472-yOPEN 1 G. B. Pant National Institute of Himalayan Environment, Kosi-Katarmal, Almora 263 643, Uttarakhand, India. 2 Divisional Forest Office, Tarai East Forest Division, Uttarakhand Forest Department, Haldwani, Uttarakhand 263 139, India. *
Eco-restoration initiative work in the high altitude Dayara pastureland (3501 m) from the IndianHimalayan Region has been considered to be one of the successful field demonstration against both natural and anthropogenic degradation. The present study therefore attempts to assess the implications of entire eco-restoration model as practiced by Department of Forest, Government of Uttarakhand in 2019. Its assessment was done by calculating restoration success index by way of considering three categories, viz., direct management measure (M), environmental desirability (E) and socio-economic feasibility (SE) considering 22 individual variables. 'M' comprised both biotic and abiotic pressures. Grazing and tourism were biotic, while abiotic pressure was considered mainly soil erosion in alpine area due to topographic fragility. Above ground vegetation profile and below ground soil nutrient profile (N, P, K, pH and water holding capacity) were analyzed in 'E' component. In the last but not least, 'SE' was analyzed to assess the social acceptability of the local communities and stakeholders who are supposed to be ultimate beneficiary of alike interventions. Direct management measure was found with the variable index score of 0.8 indicating the higher score as compared to environmental desirability (0.56). Under direct management measure, grazing and tourists' carrying capacity of the area was analyzed with high management needs to call the region sustainable in terms of availability of bio-resources. The ecosystem index score was evaluated for the reference (81.94), treated (64.5) and untreated zones (52.03), wherein increasing profile of these values were found. The outcomes like improved vegetation profile in terms of total herb density, soil nutrient profile of the restored area along with soil pH (4.96) and water holding capacity (49.85%) were found to be restored significantly along with controlling 169.64 tonne year -1 soil erosion from draining. The assessment of grazing pattern of 118 migratory Cow Unit (CU) (76 horse/mule and 18 sheep/goat, already controlled), 318 local CU (30 horse/mule and 187 sheep/goat) were calculated and recommended to be controlled. Tourists' carrying capacity of 274 tourists per day and manual removal of Rumex nepalensis at the shepherd camping site were found to be worth to apply in the area. Use of biodegradable but locally sourced material and engaging local villagers in this endeavor were also found to be in harmony with SDG Goal 1 (no poverty). Therefore, the restoration and its evaluation model could have its future prospects to prove as a successful restoration practice. This restoration practice could not only be worth in high altitude degraded alpine pastures of the Indian Himalayan Region but also to other mountain alpine and sub-alpine ecosystems.In the present scenario, gradual degradation of high elevation mountain eco-systems and their rational

rate of 600 MHz, that means that it completes one instruction every 1.67 nanoseconds. Which is how much time it takes light to get to you from a computer monitor 1/2 meter away. (Not counting the much longer time it takes your eyes/brain to process that light, of course.)

the only difference between that and a trumpet is that a trumpet allows you to lengthen the "tubing" which can be used to change the pitch of the harmonic series. with out keys like the trumpet has, you can only play like 10 notes. by lengthening the tubing by certain amounts we can get different pitches other than the harmonic series. no long explanation needed.
I got so much more out of uni when I took a break for a couple years and went back. Those comments were true for me when I first started out but going back after working full time for a bit was way better. There cos you wanna be there and have a goal rather than 'cos mum n dad expect it'
I did it. Not the middle - but March of last year. Worth it. People were pissed at first, but we still all talk and meet for lunch - even some of the partners still email me checking in. HR was the only person who was truly unforgiving. (Yes, just one person).
Its not so much about hunger, its about the fact that no matter what happens I will ALWAYS love sweets and sugary stuff, and since they are freely available to me during my shift hours, I tend to break down and go for it. I already drink a lot of water (in and out of work), but I guess maybe I will make a conscious effort to drink even more now and see if that helps
i don’t have one. but i don’t believe arming everyone to the teeth is the answer. there is a place for firearms for protection. at the front of the school in the hands of a security guard that is well vetted, extensively trained and periodically screened maybe. in mrs. applebee’s first grade class. no.
No, Majoll is a he! That's one of the reasons it's so worth going around and talking to every NPC if you can, all these awesome side stories unfold. Last time I spoke to him, after Betnikh he told me those 3 girls have no idea, Jarkarn was with him! As for that high elf chick, when I was in Stros M'Kai recently for a revisit. Unrelated to Jakarn story, her name was brought up when I was talking to an NPC who lost a brother.

Look, once the sun hits you, good luck sleeping any more, and that happens around 8-9 am. When you're coming off acid/molly/whatever, you won't be going to sleep until 3-4 am. Do the math. 4-5 hours is fine for a weekend of substance-fueled fun. Just pretend you're in college.
Talking about achievements/bragging is lame. You're asking for shit tests. This girl is maybe a bit on the extreme side, so don't calibrate too much to her. It can really screw up your calibration for normal girls if you're learning this stuff. This girl can seem like a hard-ass, but don't fall into her game of mind fuckery. She's probably got a very fragile ego underneath and she's learned to confuse people with her cockiness. When she tries to provoke you with shittests, you have to find a way to snap her out of it. She's looking for someone who can handle her shit, so don't even attempt arguing with her. Don't use words. Just smirk and look at her like you'd look at a kid who's playing in the sand. Body language is key. Something I do a lot is, when I get shit tested, I look at her as if I was thinking about what she just said, then I say something completely different.

There is no limit on how much whitespace is used. [PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) also discourages space before the open parenthesis of the function's argument list. > > Immediately before the open parenthesis that starts the argument list of a function call: > Yes: spam(1) > No: spam (1)
Not really. You can just leave and umbilical cord hanging there and looking weird, like a foreskin. An appendix sometimes gets removed prophylactically if someone is going to be somewhere distant from a modern hospital. Same with wisdom teeth, hymens, episiotomies, all kinds of things. The human body is imperfect and the foreskin is an example of things that gotta go.
Here's the article about it http://heavy.com/sports/2015/10/mallory-santic-tyler-johnson-jimmy-kimmel-most-impressive-thing-girl-video-clip-university-of-washington-instagram-facebook-twitter/ This is absolutely something she would brag about. Notice how much of a reach it was, "greatest accomplishment" is cheating on a boyfriend? Status boosting, plain and simple. Good for her I guess, though the backlash has seemed pretty rough. She's trying to kickstart an acting career, what better way than pro athlete sex affair controversy? Edit: plus, if it were fake, I *highly* doubt Jimmy Kimmel's team would drag Tyler Johnson into it, seeing as how Tyler is dating someone who went to the same school as us currently.

still suggests that the mechanism of 3 ′ splice site choice, even at NAGNAGs, is stochastic and common to every tissue. Refuting this model, a global analysis of gene expression in 16 human and eight mouse tissues revealed that splicing patterns at individual NAGNAGs are tissue-specific, regulated, and conserved (Bradley et al. 2012). This work highlighted splicing patterns at adjacent 3 ′ splice sites that suggest a role for the polypyrimidine tract, the location of the branchpoint, and the identity of the N within each NAGNAG in designating a site as the end of an intron (Bradley et al. 2012). It is still unclear, though, if these contributions apply equally to splicing patterns at adjacent 3 ′ splice sites in every cell type and to what extent these factors influence splice site choice in other organisms.
C. elegans is an excellent model organism in which to study developmental and tissue-specific alternative splicing. The developmental lineages of all 959 somatic cells have been traced (Sulston and Horvitz 1977), and the C. elegans genome was the first among animals to be fully sequenced (The C. elegans Sequencing Consortium 1998). Intergenic regions as well as typical introns are relatively small (Spieth and Lawson 2006). Roughly 25% of protein-coding genes in C. elegans have multiple isoform annotations, with each gene producing 2.2 isoforms on average (Ramani et al. 2011). In addition, many C. elegans trans-acting alternative splicing factors and their targeted cis-elements are conserved in mammals, making these worms an excellent model organism to study human diseases related to splicing factors (Kabat et al. 2006;Zahler 2012;Barberan-Soler and Ragle 2013). The 5 ′ splice site consensus sequence in C. elegans is similar to other eukaryotes. In nematodes, introns end in AG and are preceded by a short polypyrimidine tract yielding the consensus sequence YYYNAG/R (Blumenthal and Steward 1997). This short polypyrimidine tract differs from other animals in that it is much shorter and located closer to the AG dinucleotide. The YYYNAG/R consensus sequence is a direct binding site for the C. elegans U2AF subunits UAF-1 and UAF-2 (Zorio and Blumenthal 1999;Hollins et al. 2005). The phenomenon of NAGNAG alternative 3 ′ splice sites separated by 3 nt is rare in C. elegans, presumably due to the strong nematode 3 ′ splice site consensus with its adjacent pyrimidines precluding a 3-nt separation of two AG dinucleotide splice acceptors.

I know they had no intention of actually allowing other regions to play this game, but they have to know they have quite an interest over in the west. I played the original PSO and I would kill to play an actual English version, but Sega is way too stubborn. Its unfortunate, I would spend a ton of money on a game like this (cosmetics only, not p2w of course). I know I can play the Japanese with an English patch, but I know I couldn't convince my buddies to do the same.
It had nothing to do with Paragon vs. Destiny 2, are you really that fucking retarded? Must be because they're not even the same type of game. You guys are just blinded by rage that no one takes your "main game" seriously and it's not good enough to keep people playing, especially solo. So again, how mad are you? I'm not asking IF you are mad...I can clearly see you kids are butthurt about it...I'm asking how mad are you? Like 1-10 scale wise. Eh, doesn't matter who am I kidding? It's a 10.
Haha, all good. American accent still refers to the whole set of accents coming from that country. I'd almost argue that Canadian falls under that because it's North Americas, but I would upset a lot of Canadians. Most of us foreigners can tell the difference between different American accents as well (though usually only north/south). Possibly because of the saturation of American media in our countries.

An Andean Romance

CHAPTER I.
MATCHING GREEN.
A quaint old Essex village of single-storied cottages, some ivy mantled,
with dormer windows, thatched roofs, and miniature gardens, strewed with
picturesque irregularity round as fine a green as you will find in the
county. Its normal condition is rustic peace and sleepy beatitude; and it
pursues the even tenor of its way undisturbed by anything more exciting
than a meeting of the vestry, the parish dinner, the advent of a new
curate, or the exit of one of the fathers of the hamlet.
But this morning the place is all agog, and so transformed that it hardly
knows itself. The entire population, from the oldest gaffer to the
last-born baby, is out-of-doors; the two inns are thronged with guests,
and the road is lined with all sorts and conditions of carriages, from the
four-in-hand of the wealthy swell to the donkey-cart of the local
coster-monger. From every point of the compass are trooping horsemen, some
resplendent in scarlet coats, their nether limbs clothed in immaculate
white breeches and shining top-boots, others in pan hats and brown
leggings; and all in high spirits and eager for the fray; for to-day,
according to old custom, the Essex Hunt hold the first regular meet of the
season on Matching's matchless Green.
The master is already to the fore, and now comes Tom Cuffe, the huntsman,
followed by his hounds, whose sleek skins and bright coats show that they
are "fit to go," and whose eager looks bode ill to the long-tailed
denizens of copse and covert.
It still wants a few minutes to eleven, and the interval is occupied in
the interchange of greetings between old companions of the chase, in
desultory talk about horses and hounds; and while some of the older
votaries of Diana fight their battles o'er again, and describe thrice-told
historic runs, which grow longer with every repetition, others discuss the
prospects of the coming season, and indulge in hopes of which, let us
hope, neither Jack Frost, bad scent, nor accident by flood or field will
mar the fruition.
Nearly all are talking, for there is a feeling of _camaraderie_ in the
hunting-field which dispenses with the formality of introductions, its
frequenters sometimes becoming familiar friends before they have learned
each other's names.
Yet there are exceptions; and one cavalier in particular appears to hold
himself aloof, neither speaking to his neighbors nor mixing in the throng.
As he does not look like a "sulky swell," rendered taciturn by an
overweening sense of his own importance, he is probably either a new
resident in the county or a "stranger from a distance"--which, none whom I
ask seems to know. There is something about this man that especially
attracts my attention; and not mine alone, for I perceive that he is being
curiously regarded by several of my neighbors. His get-up is faultless,
and he sits with the easy grace of a practiced horseman an animal of
exceptional symmetry and strength. His well-knit figure is slim and almost

demonstrated that Mo complexes were effective against diabetes 6 . Moreover, it was OPEN www.nature.com/scientificreports/ demonstrated that sodium molybdate had an insulin-mimicry activity and improved immune dysfunction in diabetic rats 7 . Burguera and Burguera 8 discovered that a high intake of MO-rich grains, legumes, and seeds could lead to the deposition of Mo in the soft tissues and joints, resulting in arthritic symptoms. Mo poisoning has also been linked to severe gastrointestinal irritation with diarrhea and ruminant's coma and death from cardiac failure.Nanotechnological innovations have led to the development of a wide variety of nanoparticles (NPs) with large surface area and high bioactivity in the cells 9,10 . The toxicity of NPs is affected by particle size, chemical nature, surface chemistry, and morphology. As a result, it is critical to have access to all necessary information and clarifications to assess the risks associated with the NPs 11,12 . According to the literature, exposure to ultrafine particles (< 100 nm) could induce tissue inflammation and pulmonary damage, lung tumors, and fibrosis 13 . However, the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is mainly associated with the toxicity of NPs. ROS accumulation triggers various physiological and cellular events, including inflammation, cellular stress, DNA damage, and apoptosis 14 . Mo-NPs have been previously used in many applications such as electronics, glass manufacturing, electrochemical capacitors, coatings, plastics, and X-ray tubes 15 . Moreover, Mo-NPs have agricultural applications, where they improve microbiological activity in the rhizosphere of chickpeas and increase their length, diameter, and root circumference 16 . However, some studies have reported the presence of Mo-NPs in industrial and agricultural wastes and their effect on animal and human health 17 . Mo-NPs were found to increase the content of intracellular antioxidant glutathione to protect cells against oxidants, thus playing a role against oxidative stress 18 .The Common bean (CB) is a member of the leguminous family. It is considered one of the most vital vegetable crops sowed in Egypt for exportation. It is enriched with a high protein source, accounting for 22%-27% of seed weight19,20. Each 100 g of CB supplied about 20 g of protein in humans, nearly 20% of the endorsed quotidian assimilation for an average adult 21 . In the recent decade, CB has been identified as a valuable food ingredient for over half a billion people on account of its high content of bioactive compounds, such as polyphenols, resistant starch, oligosaccharides, and bioactive peptides nutrients 22 . It also contains complex carbohydrates, unsaturated fats, vitamins, minerals, and several antioxidants 23 . In addition, the processing of legumes is essential for eliminating or reducing anti-nutritive factors, for example, polyphenols and flavonoids 24 . The anti-nutrient factors are inhibitors for growth like tannins that inhibit the digestibility of proteins and phytic acid, decreasing mineral bioavailability 25 .This study aimed to investigate the effect of MoO 3 -NPs on the consumers who eat the CB fertilized by MoO 3 -NP and farmers exposed to MoO 3 -NPs as nanofertilizer. The study focused on evaluating nutritional parameters and liver, kidney, and heart functions. In addition,

four Japanese around you if that is stylization to them instead of resorting to attempting to insult me because you did not understand the point I was making? No self-respecting Japanese teacher would give those modified, inaccurate characters a pass.
Yeah but every translation done since has used Gregorian, which was why I phrased it that way. I'm not saying that they're by default stupid (ok I kind of am :P), I'm saying that I've seen a lot of people with better knowledge of events and civs in the BC era than knowledge of the same in AD. My reason for keeping it is that it's pretty damn established at this point and to change it there needs to be a bloody good reason, and that simply hasn't been provided. If you're trying to work out why I'm furious, you might be doing it for a while seeing as I'm not :P.
When i first read the SOT books I liked them a lot. But after reading them again I sadly had to change my mind because even if objectivist philosophy weren't horribly inconsistent with itself, I would still dislike the books because it is rammed down your throat. When i tried to re-read the books I had to skip much of the dialogue because it consisted mostly of ranting. Richards magic is also just a contrievance so that Goodkind can have a way to wrap up his books. Magic that works through 'need', what a wonderful way to have deus ex machina in your books. The worst thing was when I finished Confessor and realised that [Confessor spoiler] (/s "the whole ending of SOT was pointless because Darken Rahl would have lost anyway") which pretty much ruined the only book in the series that i still liked. How was Richards philosophy in any way instrumental to the victory? When Goodkind wrote about politics Richards opponents were one-dimensional strawmen, and [Confessor spoiler] (/s "Richard uses his magic to win anyway") I still like some of the characters like Chandalen though.
I tried to get in contact with the broker but I haven't heard back from him yet. I will get a second opinion from another independent realtor tomorrow too. I look at the contract and see that I am not at fault for any of the conditions listed within it, but it does seemed like the "Default, termination, and return of deposit" is not as simple as "taking the EMD when the buyer walk away."

president Franklin Delano Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill to coordinate military plans regarding the Pacific. The 1943 meeting serves as the backdrop to international intrigue, a story of spies and traitors, as well as a subplot featuring Mao Zedong back in his Yan’an home base.
This story steeped in tragedy is framed by set pieces of grandeur. “Red Star Over China” defines the film with its soaring melody and rich harmony. The political context is represented with a resistance theme first played in “Enemies of the Nazi Regime”; the idea reappears whenever Allied leaders are plotting their next moves. The pastoral theme for Mao’s subplot is somewhat idyllic in its portrayal of the chairman in Yan’an, the rustic Red Army headquarters – the theme first appears in “Mao and the Journalist”. Finally we have themes for the Japanese-Chinese conflict in the form of a passacaglia (repeated bass figure), which underscores the devastating aftermath of the “Assault on Chongqing” ; a secondary theme in “Spy Arrested” focuses on the psychological effects instead of the physical destruction.
Chinese composer Ye Xiaogang has a rich career in both film and concert music: his compositions include the The Song of the Earth in nine movements as well as The Twilight of the Himalayas which premiered at the opening ceremony of the 2008 Summer Olympics. Chad Cannon’s contributions to the soundtrack include work on the more action-oriented cues, given his background in the orchestration team of Conrad Pope on top Hollywood films as Godzilla (score by Alexandre Desplat) and the last two The Hobbit films (Howard Shore). Chad is also the founder of the Asia / America New Music Institute (AANMI), which promotes new music relationships between the U.S., Japan and greater Asia.
Redesigning Google
“We went to Google looking for the person responsible for the new design direction, but the strange answer we got is that such a person doesn’t exist. Instead, thanks to a vision laid out by a small team of Google designers, each product team is finding its way to a consistent and forward-looking design language thanks to a surprising process…they’re talking to each other.”
Also note that the mandate to focus on design came down from Larry Page himself…without support from the executive team these sorts of things have failed in the past at Google. And anecdotally, it might be hard to underestimate the publicity value of this shift for Google and their recruiting efforts…they are now seen as a much more design-friendly place to work.
This project includes the construction of a new wastewater lift station in the NW corner of Centennial Park. New sewer pipe will connect the lift station with the existing pipeline located in W. Oxford Avenue. The draft Preliminary Design Report and Environmental Assessment will be posted on the District’s website for review prior to the meeting.

the acid is synthesised in the liver, the pancreas and the kidneys on the basis of three amino acids: Glycine, Methionine and Arginine. 90 percent of creatine is stored in the skeletal muscles. Creatine enhances physical performance in explosive strength training involving short, intense physical exertion - making it interesting to bodybuilders and strength athletes above all. But other athletes, for instance weight lifters, marathon runners and sprinters, can also benefit from taking creatine. Creatine is an endogenous substance in all vertebrates and is hence contained in foods such as meat and fish. 100 grams of My Supps Maxximum Mass Gainer contain 3 grams of creatine. This is the daily dosage required to produce the performance-enhancing effects that creatine can have on the body.

Acrobat's Incredible Stunt Gets Upstaged By This Old Man
When did exercise get so complicated? It seems like a few years ago the "basics" like weightlifting and running went out of style, because the internet is full of weird workout trends that defy explanation.
Travis Horn - also known as the Vegas Balance Guru - specializes in these strange exercise routines. His fans have seen him keep his balance on stacks of workout equipment and do things that would be impossible for nearly anyone else.
But this video features his most impressive trick yet: doing a handstand on 18 dumbbells stacked on top of each other. Unfortunately, all his hard work was wasted because no one watching this video can keep their eyes on Travis.
Did you notice what's grabbing everyone's attention? See that old man in the background?
While Travis is defying gravity and common sense with his balancing act, this senior citizen has impressed everyone with his series of perfect free throws.
No one knows the identity of this mysterious basketball wizard. Some people think he may be Bernie Sanders, but until Travis tracks him down we won't know for sure.

But yeah, the driven kick really, really helps get a counter attack going and there's been a couple of times lately where the kick lands at the striker's feet and I'm able take off past the defense to have a chance on goal. Just a useful feature they added this year that I like.

Exactly this ^^^ As hard as it is for you to see, you need to focus on yourself and whatever happens with your family, specifically with your brother, will continue to happen regardless of you being they to stop it or to give consequences. Don't let your mom use your brother as emotional blackmail, and don't put off moving out. Focus on moving away and becoming independent, model appropriate life skills, your brother is dealing with the family situation in his own way and you are not responsible for that. It would be a better situation for you to move out and by living your life, show him that it doesn't have to be that way.
> you might as well have been talking to a wall for all the impact you had Hah. Very true. I think I just felt guilty for just up and dropping a very close friend for not taking my advice. Maybe I was beginning to be more honest with myself and not constantly in denial over her actions.
I love poetry and spoken word, but a lot of the poetry I read has a God/spiritual component to it. I was wondering if atheists still appreciate poetry and their views on it. I am by no means an expert on poetry, I just enjoy it and wonder if some of r/atheism enjoys it too. What is your opinion? Edit 1: I guess the question I'm asking is do you see this type of poetry as fiction? If so, does it still evoke the feelings and emotions the author is trying to convey? Edit 2:This not limited to poetry; any sort of writing that is meant to evoke something in the reader that has a spiritual component.
Over the past few weeks, my partner has been worried we are not intellectually compatible, as in he and I often do not share a lot of the same common experiences, hobbies, or general interests.

time for voters to make up their mind. No one is running away with the nomination at this point which means anyone who can raise the money to get noticed has a chance to win.
As Oregon’s most senior Republican in state government, Dennis Richardson is an obvious choice to run. He has high name ID, fundraising power, and is the only potential candidate who has won a statewide general election. Richardson performs best among Republicans in Southern Oregon (receiving 44% of vote there) who are most familiar with him because he was a state representative in the areafor many years. He also does best with 55+ voters. We did expect him to run away with it more than he did. It’s possible that some Republicans feel he should should remain Secretary of State for the rest of his term before seeking higher office.
Bill Post has been continually raising his profile (especially online) ever since he was elected to the Oregon House. He has been semi-publicly considering a run for Governor over the last several weeks. Post performs best in the Mid-Willamette Valley region (receiving 39% of votes from that area).
It makes sense that Bud Pierce is in the top three. Although he didn’t win, Pierce put together a statewide campaign after winning a competitive primary in 2016. His name ID is likely to still be fairly high from his 2016 run. Pierce doesn’t win any particular subgroup but does perform moderately well in most of them.
Buehler has run for statewide office before. He ran against Kate Brown for Secretary of State in 2012. If he wins the primary, he would likely have a rematch on his hands. Buehler is in the top two with voters in Central Oregon. He also gets high marks with voters 18-34 and moderate Republicans.
Lori Chavez-DeRemer is the mayor of Happy Valley and only narrowly lost a race for State Representative in 2016. She is currently exploring a run for Governor. She does best among Tri-County Republicans (receiving 21%). Her highest marks come with voters 18-34. Here DeRemer gets 35% of young voters. She is nearly tied with Buehler in the top two among Moderate Republicans (she has 20%, Buehler has 19%). Theyu would likely split the vote among moderates if they both entered the primary.
Alley and Carpenter haven’t announced intentions to run in 2018. It’s likely their poll numbers are suffering because of that. Every other potential candidate has recently received at least one headline in the media.

Wolfram. He missed the way he used to act – even his childish temper tantrums.
He even missed him in his bed.
He kept an apprehensive eye on the two dancing men, ignoring the mindless chatter surrounding him as well as another feeling that he refused to acknowledge.
* * *
Wolfram and Saralegui danced through several numbers while managing to not kill each other.
Saralegui was still suspicious, however – and said everything he could think of to wind Wolfram up.
"Hmm, the Maou seems to be enjoying his company of ladies tonight," he said.
"It's just like him," Wolfram responded, his voice unchanging.
"I wonder if he'll dance with me after I finish dancing with you?"
"It can't hurt to try," he said, gently.
"I'll do that after we're done."
"Good luck."
No matter what Saralegui said, Wolfram just smiled at him brightly, and showed no other emotion.
Suddenly, Wolfram halted in his tracks. "Oh, there he is! I thought he wouldn't come," he said, his voice sounding quite happy.
"Who's that?" Saralegui asked, and turned to look behind him.
"Oh, he's just a friend of mine," Wolfram said, and motioned towards a tall, blue-eyed man with long brown hair.
"I... see," Saralegui said, continuing to look at the stunning man. "He seems familiar, but I can't place him."
Wolfram moved in front of Saralegui, and brought his former dance partner's hand to his lips.
"Thank you for the dance, Your Majesty. I surely appreciate it," he said, and gently kissed his hand.
Saralegui, who was beyond creeped out and paranoid at that point, just nodded.
Wolfram smiled at him once more, before turning and walking off.
Saralegui watched Wolfram retreat, and wondered if that was _it_ for the night. Surely, he had something else planned?
Or maybe Saralegui wished he had something else planned.
He watched as Wolfram walked up to the tall newcomer, and said something. The man laughed, and Wolfram practically beamed up at him.
Saralegui was bothered by how happy he seemed, and wondered if this was the new "love interest" that Wolfram had mentioned in his letter.
As he watched the two chat for a bit longer, a pleasantly evil idea came to his mind. He still hadn't forgiven the Bielefeld brat for the Polka-Dot incident, and he thought that it would be nice to gain a little revenge.
He made his way over to the two men.
5. I Bow Out
**Summary for the Chapter:**
> Someone concedes defeat in the ongoing battle between Wolfram and Saralegui?
**Notes for the Chapter:**

"So, Lord von Bielefeld, are you going to introduce me to your friend?" Saralegui asked.
Wolfram, who was holding an animated conversation with the newcomer, paused in his conversation.
"Oh my, what bad manners of me! This is Kelby Loring. Kelby, this is King Saralegui of Small Shimaron," he said.
"Nice to meet you, Your Majesty," Kelby said politely, and bowed.
"Likewise," Saralegui said.
"Kelby, would you like to dance?" Wolfram asked suddenly.

IP of an instance:
for instance in result["items"]:
if instance["networkInterfaces"][0]["networkIP"] == internal_ip:
internal_id = instance["id"]
This works but it's a bit complicated, is there a more direct way to achieve the same thing, e.g. using Google's Python Client Library or the gcloud command line tool?
A:
Instance Name:
socket.gethostname() or platform.node() should return the name of the instance. You might have to do a bit of parsing depending on your OS.
This worked for me on Debian and Ubuntu systems:
import socket
gce_name = socket.gethostname()
However, on a CoreOS instance, the hostname command gave the name of the instance plus the zone information, so you would have to do some parsing.
Instance ID / Name / More (Recommended):
The better way to do this is to use the Metadata server. This is the easiest way to get instance information, and works with basically any programming language or straight CURL. Here is a Python example using Requests.
import requests
metadata_server = "http://metadata/computeMetadata/v1/instance/"
metadata_flavor = {'Metadata-Flavor' : 'Google'}
gce_id = requests.get(metadata_server + 'id', headers = metadata_flavor).text
gce_name = requests.get(metadata_server + 'hostname', headers = metadata_flavor).text
gce_machine_type = requests.get(metadata_server + 'machine-type', headers = metadata_flavor).text
Again, you might need to do some parsing here, but it is really straightforward!
References:
How can I use Python to get the system hostname?
A:
To get your instance name, execute the following from your VM:
curl http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/hostname -H Metadata-Flavor:Google
and to get your instance id:
curl http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/id -H Metadata-Flavor:Google
Check out the documentations for other available parameters: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/storing-retrieving-metadata#project_and_instance_metadata
Q:
Mysql Query for multi Condition
I was trying to make query like this:
$query= "SELECT a.virtuemart_category_id,
a.virtuemart_product_id,
b.product_name,
b.product_desc,
c.product_price,
d.virtuemart_media_id,

LEFT JOIN wgny6_virtuemart_products_en_gb b
ON a.virtuemart_product_id = b.virtuemart_product_id
LEFT JOIN wgny6_virtuemart_product_prices c
ON b.virtuemart_product_id = c.virtuemart_product_id
LEFT JOIN wgny6_virtuemart_product_medias d
ON b.virtuemart_product_id = d.virtuemart_product_id
LEFT JOIN wgny6_virtuemart_medias e
ON d.virtuemart_media_id = e.virtuemart_media_id
WHERE b.product_name IS NOT NULL";
But I want this will happen only if a.virtuemart_category_id= $id. But I can't figure out how I will add that condition.
A:
Simply put extra where condition
AND a.virtuemart_category_id = $id
at the end of your query.
i.e.
SELECT a.virtuemart_category_id,a.virtuemart_product_id,b.product_name,b.product_desc, c.product_price,d.virtuemart_media_id,e.file_url

Q:
Symmetrization and isoperimetric inequality
Let $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded open set with $C^1$ boundary $\partial\Omega$. The isoperimetric inequality states $$\frac{|\partial\Omega|}{|\Omega|^{\frac{n-1}{n}}}\geq \frac{|\partial B_1|}{|B_1|^{\frac{n-1}{n}}},$$ where $B_1$ is the unit ball centred at $0$.
I want to prove a weaker version, say that given a fixed volume $V$ the ball has the lowest perimetre among all the regions $\Omega$ with volume $|\Omega|=V$. (*)
My professor told me to focus on an $\Omega$ of the form
$$ \Omega=\{(x',x_n)\in\mathbb{R}^{n-1}\times\mathbb{R}:\,x'\in W\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n-1},\,\varphi_1(x')<x_n<\varphi_2(x')\}, $$ and then to consider $$\Omega_s=\{(x',x_n)\in\mathbb{R}^{n-1}\times\mathbb{R}:\,x'\in W\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n-1},\,-\frac{\varphi_2(x')-\varphi_1(x')}{2}<x_n<\frac{\varphi_2(x')-\varphi_1(x')}{2}\}.$$
Direct computations show that $|\Omega|=|\Omega_s|$ and $|\partial\Omega|\geq |\partial\Omega_s|$, with equality if and only if $\Omega$ is symmetric with respect to a hyperplane $\{x_n=C\}$.
I understand that this provides an intuition for (*).
However, I do not see how to

He starts regaling the tale of how he had a series of crappy apartments after college until he _finally_ had enough money saved up from working as a assistant account executive to buy the loft. “It felt like home, the first place that ever truly felt _mine,_ it came from my hard work.”Brian finishes softly. Justin’s amazed, he’s amazed at how Brian gave him a real answer, not a bullshit response. Brian opened up to Justin and while it may not have been as much as Justin had opened up it was enough, more than enough. Justin rests his head back on Brian’s chest and presses a soft kiss on Brian’s right pec and smiles to himself; if he could have all of this and heaven too he’d be set for life.

Deus Ex Machina was a God that resided within Jungkook’s imagination, borne of his loneliness, a representation of that literary fault which grants protagonists miracles in times of need. He always assumed that this God was a clever trick of his mind, a defense mechanism keeping him from feeling the effects of being an outsider amongst his peers.
He had another defense, too, for he was an outsider in his own body. During the day, when Deus Ex Machina was invisible to him, Jungkook fancied himself an observer. He carefully documented the events of his day, no matter how small or insignificant, but kept a safe distance between those events and himself. By keeping track of his life as though he were an outsider looking in, he was able to protect himself from the unwelcome feelings of desolation and despair.
The God would ask, “Yes, how was your day?”
And Jungkook would look at the notes on his phone and see that Hyunwoo and his friends had teased him in homeroom, that some random kid shoved him in the halls after lunch (the food had been nothing spectacular, as always), that a stray cat had followed him for a couple blocks on the walk home. “It was ok, I guess.”
Deus asked often why he didn’t record any of his own feelings, claiming that doing so might help make things more bearable. But Jungkook would just smile and shrug, “That’s why I have you, right?”
Everything changed when Jungkook woke up one

POST/GET requests in Angular-sails
I'm using angular-sails in my project and I have a problem in sending POST or GET requests from angular controller. Here is my controller:
Angular: UserController.js
myApp.controller('UserCtrl', function ($scope, $sails) {
$sails.post('/addUser', {name: 'test'}, function (response) {
console.log(response);
});
});
While in sails server-side controller I have:
Sails: UserController.js
module.exports = {
addUser: function(req, res) {
//SQL query
return res.json({success: true});
},
_config: {}
};
and in my route:
Sails: routes.js
module.exports.routes = {
'post /addUser': {
controller: 'UserController',
action: 'addUser'
}
}
Accessing the url: localhost:1337/addUser directly gives me:
{success: true}
However, issuing the post/get request from angular controller do nothing.
What might be the problem?

"Hang on, that's not it--- hi, Keith, I'll get you some fish food later--- A-ha!" He took out his hand and in it lay an orange moustache, which he proceeded to ceremoniously but on the robot, "There! Now we're ready!"
Taking his spot in the middle again, the five waited for Hatchworth's eyes to open. It took longer than expected, but they finally did. Except his eyes were rolling individually like little golf balls, unable to focus.
"Oh! I have just the thing!" It was Rabbit this time who stood. She ran out of the room, was gone for a minute or two, then ran back in with a pair of glasses. Perching them on her brother's nose, she said, "Don't ask me where I got these."
Finally, his eyes focused, and he looked around the room and to the robots in front of him. Eyes landing on The Jon, he smiled and said his first word.
"Fam-il-y!"
~~~
"Boat?"
"Boat."
"Like the brrbrbrbrbrbrb type of boat Ra-bbit talks about in her sailing stor-ies?"
"Yup."
The Jon and Hatchworth often walked around, talking about concepts. Sometimes they'd sit across from each other and imitate each others beeps and whirrs. It was rather calming in a way. One day, Hatchworth asked a different type of question.
"The Jon? Am I the youngest or are you?"
The Jon considered this, "Well, I suppose if we're going by age, you'd be older than me because you're older than me as a stove, but also younger than Upgrade cause she was technically adopted, but you powered on after me so, I suppose it's up to interpretation."
"Oh, okay," and that was just that.
~~~
When Hatchworth was vaulted, The Jon stayed by the vault door for quite a while. Weeks? Months? Years? No one was sure. Time was weird. When someone leaves, it gets slower, but when The Jon is around, everything was weirder. All the same the first robot to see Hatchworth when he got out had to be The Jon.
Hatchworth stepped out of Peter Walter VI's workshop, dazed by the sudden change of light. He was immediately leaped on by his younger older brother. Startled for a moment, he hugged back quickly enough.

Moana Waialiki was unlike any girl Maui had ever known. She had been so young when they first met, especially compared to him. But despite her inexperienced, Moana was a spitfire who was stubborn and fierce. She was braver than most mortals he knew. She even surprised him when she followed him into Lalotai, or the Realm of Monsters. Most mortals were too afraid to even think about going near Lalotai, but she just jumped right in.
He had admired her.
She had figured out that Te Ka was actually Te Fiti, something he wasn’t sure if he would’ve figured out. Moana returned the heart and saved the world. She was a legend and deserved to be treated as such. That’s why, anywhere he went, Maui was sure to tell the

No problem, it makes sense to have the authenticator, only takes a few moments to set up for much much more security. Only thing to be careful of is not lose the installation, I believe when you set it up it shows you some recovery code or something, note that down. And if you are ever re-installing windows remember to de-authorise the authenticator on your battle.net settings first, and re-atatch when you have finished installing the new OS, otherwise you will be kinda screwed.
The split party ran into the BBEGs fortress, down on spells, equipment, and HP. They had been stacked every night on the way there by his main minion and EXPLICITLY WARNED THAT HE KNEW THEY WERE COMING. They ignored the secret way in that they found and ran through the suspiciously unguarded gate. A TPK is the mostly likely answer. The BBEG already has the one PC that he wants alone. How should he play with the rest. I’m looking for moral dilemmas, difficult traps, making players choose who gets to live, etc. Thank you ahead of time.

Me and an old flame were going hard one night in his room after copious drinking. He was on top, my back end was in the air, the whole shabang.

I was horrified, but he handled it like an absolute champion telling me not to worry, etc., etc. We showered the blood off together and finished. I still cringe when I think about it.

I listen to podcasts at work, and i continue to listen to them when i go in to the bathroom. I turn them down so that im the only one that can hear it, which i think is a lot more considerate than the people who sing along, or worse, play music through their phone speaker on the toilet at work.
I think these pills have catnip in them, a chemical, which gets you high. These pills were originally designed for cats to chill the fuck out. But with extensive research they have made it for humans too. It could also be that the amount of mg in it was 300 compared to what you are probably selling is 10-15mg EDIT: I'm not sure about any of this but my friend who bought it said it was b3. Since its roots are from a vitamin supplement I think it has very less effect on the human body.
Lots. Not like I know the first thing about what I'm seeing here but I live in Kansas so I'll assume that makes me enough of an expert for the Internet. 1 modern John Deere s690 combine will cost $350,000-ish without extras and additional equipment. 5 John Deere 6175m harvest tractors cost $140,000-ish each base model. 5 new 53' grain trailers cost $30,000-ish each. Those numbers come up to $1.2m. I work in a office downtown, not on a farm so consider that as well. Also I dont think most farmers buy all new stuff. I think a lot is used or leased, but I dont know for sure.
If that's the case, scientologist might be the most firm and strict believers of any religion. I mean, reddit can be gross and very inappropriate, but you still see Jews, Muslims, Catholics, etc here. So, if that's the case I'd be really impressed. They'd be like the Amish of modern age. Jeez, I meant modernised Amish people. I actually spent 5 minutes thinking how to phrase it.
I haven't found the expensive places to be any better than the >$100 a kilo places. Considering it's all coming from the same sources, all you're doing is getting ripped off by places looking to cash in. If expensive was better, the head shop kratom would be top notch, and we all know it's not.

but again in Napoleon I have to turn the settings really far down and I can't even use antialiasing. Lots of 2D sprites, pixelliness and horrible textures. I know the game doesn't look that great anyway, but my goodness, it looks ugly on my PC. So, all of these are relatively old games. Do they just have bad optimisation in general or am I the only one getting this kind of lag (in which case I'm glad I'm building a rig)?
Basically what abandonthefort said. Get a schedule. If you can't get 8 straight hours of sleep, throw some naps in there. But stick with the schedule. I try to avoid caffeine during the nights. Camomille tea helps a bit. If all else fails, call your doctor and get some sleep medication. Proper Sleep is really important for us.
That's like saying you signed a contract and you now aren't upheld to your end of the deal. That's not how contracts work. Germany signed The Hague Convention, which is a legally binding contract. They agreed to its terms and therefor agreed to be held accountable for any deviation from those rules ala the Holocaust and the Nuremburg Trials. Even if The Hague convention Didn't mean anything, Germany unconditionally surrendered to the Allies. That means that they are subject to Allied laws, which such laws obviously make murder illegal and therefor the Holocaust was a mass crime even without international law.
I've got two analogies I like to use. The first one is to consider the feeling you get when you're wearing a really heavy pack. Nothing is actually necessarily injured or hurting, but you can feel it very slowly wear on you over time. Once you take off the pack, you feel this great weight off your shoulders and it feels wonderful. With depression, you're always wearing that pack, and you never get to take it off. Alternately: imagine having someone following you around saying awful things to you in an attempt to hurt you. Now, imagine that person not only does that, but it can read your mind, so it knows exactly what to say to inflict the most pain. Yeah, it's great.
Maybe they were not legally slaves, but this attitude persisted. The Ghosts of Duffy's Cut talks about an incident in 1832 in which Irish Workers, who might have been paid a penny a day, were treated terribly and eventually slaughtered. One of the reasons why Irish Workers were used on the railroad instead of slaves is Irish were considered cheaper and less valuable. (that wasnt in the book but WAS in the documentary, by the same title)
Quickly viewing and acting on notifications is part of why I got into smart watches, but customizing my own watch is another huge factor. I recently upgraded from my pebble to a G Watch, and my usage is about the same, but I'm now able to reply to texts and emails using my voice, which is a huge plus for me. The customization is another benefit, as the higher resolution color screen lets me

the guests. The people you are selling to are not art critics, they just want to see themselves look good. Most party photo people I know use external flashes with large diffusers that are offset 8-12" when shooting at night. Day time is always going to suck for you, get them under umbrellas, sand and rocks can be good bounces but will register hot, watch for flares off the water. I'd imagine that you would want to expose for the people and limit creativity with backgrounds and such. Unless it's an epic sunset shot that they can actually tell that it's themselves they will always want the simple shot of them instead of the art piece.
Ok, I am on a 32GB iPhone 6. I have ~8000 photos and ~1000 videos, ~200 songs, ~40+ apps. ...and I still have 15GB left on my phone, you probably know it by now—I use ‘Optimise Storage’ for both music and Photos, which pushes everything less frequently used to iCloud, and because I have a reliable internet connectivity at all times, ‘fetch’ from iCloud is really seamless as if it was locally available on your device. I am saying all this because, I am also planning to upgrade mine to iPhone 8 Plus 64GB, and I think it’s more than enough for many users like me because when required you have this seamless ‘Optimise Storage’ option that can save you a lot of storage space.
I got it on PS+ and thought it was decent at first. Then it got a little more challenging and with that it became more fun to play. But by the end I was bored and trying to just get through it and get all the trophies so I could delete it off my playstation. I didn't feel anything from the story in it and I just felt like it was me trying to move blocks from one place to another. Had fun doing it for the first haf of the game though.
Just to put what others have said in a nutshell: *Just because someone is your friend doesn't mean he should be in your band if you are serious about it.* The hardest thing I have ever done is being forced to kick my best friend out of a band for getting high and not learning the music and messing up at a show. The rest of us were very serious about the music. we're still friends and I'm still playing but he's not.
I'd recommend going in too. Or at least plan on returning some stuff. Even if you did have a complete plan for some capsule wardrobe, you have to make sure the brand fits you. It's more likely you'll end up with bad fits and underutilized items if you buy a bunch of stuff all at once at the first store you look at

identified using the regression model analysis. Thus, our central hypothesis was that the OXT promoter region methylation levels would be modified by the exposures of maltreatment with specific periods or types and would alter brain structures and functions implicated in social interactions via atypical brain development during childhood and adolescence.
MATERIALS AND METHODS Ethics statement
The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of Fukui, Japan (Assurance no. FU23-43 and 20190107), and the study was carried out in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and the Ethical Guidelines for Clinical Studies of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan. All children and a parent or director of a child welfare facility provided written informed assent and consent, respectively.
Participants
We leveraged the dataset used in our previous study [18]. Briefly, the CM group consisted of 24 children (12.6 ± 2.2 years old) with prolonged maltreatment experiences (ICD-10-CM Code T74) who had been legally removed from the care of their biological parents by Child Protective Service (CPS) and sheltered in residential childcare facilities. The CM had experienced physical, emotional, sexual abuse, and/or neglect early in life prior to coming into care. The control group consisted of 31 children (14.9 ± 2.2 years) with no history of maltreatment (non-CM).
Saliva collection and DNA extraction
Saliva samples were acquired using the Oragene Discover OGR-500 kit (DNA Genotek Inc. Ottawa, Canada). DNA was extracted using prepIT®•L2P reagent (DNA Genotek) and quantified as described previously [18,25].
OXT methylation (microarray)
Genomic DNA (500 ng) was processed using the Illumina® MethylationEPIC array. The BeadChips were scanned using iSCAN (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA), and the methylation level (β value) was calculated for each queried CpG locus using the GenomeStudio Methylation Module software (Illumina Inc., San Diego, CA, USA), followed by a Psychiatric Genomics Consortium-Epigenome-Wide Association Studies quality control pipeline [26]. Probes containing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; based on 1000 Genomes) within ten base pairs of the target CpG were maintained. Normalization of probe distribution and background differences between Type I and Type II probes was conducted using beta mixture quantile normalization (BMIQ) after background correction. Following normalization, batch effect removal as implemented in the ComBat procedure of the SVA package in Bioconductor was used to account for sources of technical variations, including batch and positional effects, which can cause spurious associations. Consequently, 794,120 probes were used for further analysis. Saliva contains a heterogeneous mixture of cell types that differ in proportions. Using the EpiDISH method [27], we estimated the proportion of epithelial cells derived from salivary DNA and entered it as a covariate in our statistical models. From this dataset, we evaluated 15 OXT CpG probes (Fig. 1, Supplementary Material).
OXT methylation (targeted)
One microgram of DNA was treated with bisulfite using the EpiTect Bisulfite Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). DNA methylation of CpG sites in the promoter region of the OXT gene (chr20: 3,052,266-3,053,162; hg19 build) was analyzed using EpiTYPER (MassARRAY system; Agena Biosciences., San Diego, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Forward (aggaagagagTTTTTTTGTTTTATTTTAGTGGTTTAGG) and reverse (cagtaatac-gactcactatagggagaaggctTCTTACCTCCCAAAAAACAATTCTA) primers corresponding to chr20:3,052,009-3,052,392

They'd decided to each try a bit. Patrick was the unlucky one who'd been first to try it.
“This,” Patrick announced with a grimace, “tastes worse than a sweaty fucking asshole.”
Pete snickered to himself and nudged Joe.
“I'm sure you'd know that,” Pete snorted. He elbowed Joe in the ribs who, to his credit, barely started to ask what Pete meant before turning bright red. He stuttered out something not even he understood and turned to Patrick, who only rolled his eyes at Pete.
“You have literally only walked in on us kissing once. Not even making out, just kissing. Just because you are hornier than a fifteen year old watching porn for the first time doesn't mean we all are,” Patrick lamented.
“Don't bullshit me. I heard you two in the spare room of the venue yesterday.” Pete raised his voice an octave, mocking Joe. “Patrick, Patrick, Patrick! Oooh!” He moaned dramatically and laughed again. Joe thought his face would catch fire.
“You -- That wasn't -- We were playing Mario Kart, you dick,” he choked out. Joe looked back to Patrick for reassurance, only to find both him and Andy chuckling too. He pouted. “All of you are assholes. All of you.”
“Aw, come on, don't be like that. We still love you,” Andy joined in. “Even if you sound like you're being fucked while you're really just losing in Mario Kart.”
And really, Joe couldn't argue with that. Instead, he tangled his foot with Patrick's under the table and decided everything would be just fine.
**Summary for the Chapter:**
> So! We’re moving ahead a little bit here again. Enjoy! Also, I’ve only ever watched live baseball once and it was on the English version of an American channel, but I’ve been told the commercials are frequent, as was my experience. Also, don’t hate me for this chapter, I’ll fix it, I promise!

The years had moved on quickly for Tony. He graduated with honours from MIT and had taken over his father's company, and was still in contact with Pepper on a regular basis. After the thanksgiving fiasco, Tony tried very hard to remember that he was supposed to be her friend first, and that she was also in a committed relationship with Casey. Although he never spent any great deal of time with the other boy again, he was civil when they did talk and tried to build bridges. If it ended up being so serious that they became engaged, he wanted to make sure that he would be able to continue his friendship with Pepper, and that meant being friendly with Casey (who never made much of an effort, but Tony didn't mind).
Pepper had moved on from school, but instead of following the path that everyone expected her to, she put a career on the backburner in favour of following Casey – who had been signed to a Major League baseball team – around the country, living the high life. Her parents worried about her, as good parents should, but she

difference.
Our arguments are organised into four parts. The first considers contemporary propositions regarding the role of the public park within the city. Namely, we explore the aspirations for parks as public fora and sites of expressive activity that are strongly connected to deliberative democracy through their openness to all before critically reviewing the role of social encounters in public space in countering prejudice and forging a civic culture out of difference. In doing so, we outline and advance a notion of conviviality as an atmosphere and an affect through which to explore the capacity of urban encounters in parks to engender civic norms. The second part provides empirical insights from research in Leeds to illustrate and develop the arguments presented. The third part outlines the parameters, we suggest, parks can play in fostering convivial relations and the conditions and 'affective atmospheres' (Anderson, 2009) that provide for meaningful encounters with others. We conclude by suggesting that, both by design and unintentionally, regulation and law can serve to foster or constrain the conditions that sustain conviviality.
2 Celebrating social encounters: contemporary propositions on the role of the public park There is a long-standing and rich tradition from within diverse disciplinary fields celebrating the role played by social encounters in urban public spaces for forging sociality and a deliberative democratic politics. In recent years, contemporary propositions provide a frame in which the constitutive role of the park within the city might be located.
Public parks as bastions of deliberative democracy
Recently, Sunstein (2017) has championed public spaces in citiesparks in particularas vital bastions of 'deliberative democracy', in the face of forces that are undermining democracy and segmenting populations. The contemporary challenge, he argues, comes from the social filtering that engenders self-referential 'echo chambers' and 'information cocoons'. The Internet and social media have enabled platforms that foster indirect impersonal transactions that lack co-presence (i.e. face-to-face interactions) and allow people to filter and control what they see, hear and experience, as well as whom they interact with. Additionally, powerful communications providers filter and classify people based on mining information in the traces of our interactions with technologies. Ever-evolving algorithms constitute the channels that congeal social filtering. The result is growing political fragmentation, social and cultural polarisation, and extremism.
By contrast, Sunstein (2017) argues that streets and parksas key 'public fora' where diverse people congregateencourage people to see and hear a wide range of topics, ideas and expressions of difference, all of which serve a well-functioning democracy. Crucially, they do so even if people would not have chosen to experience them in advance, if they had known. When you visit a park, 'it is possible that you

Several hundred Dutch judges have signed a manifesto protesting at the ‘erosion’ of the Dutch legal system, the Volkskrant reports on Tuesday.
It is the first time judges have been so openly critical of conditions within the legal system, the paper says.
‘We’ve had enough,’ senior judge Menno Zandbergen, and one of the people behind the manifesto, told the paper. ‘The bucket of irritations and dissatisfaction is overflowing.’
Governing body
Judges are particularly angry at the way members of the legal system’s governing body, the Council for the Judiciary, are appointed. ‘The way the Dutch legal system is managed is the result of that body’s choices and we have no influence at all in naming its members,’ Zandbergen said.
The legal system is becoming more like a conveyer belt, in which production and cost targets are key, the protesting judges say. ‘That means, for example, there are disincentives to call witnesses if they are not strictly necessary, otherwise you don’t meet your targets,’ Zandbergen said.
The trend now apparent across schools, universities, housing and education is being felt in the legal system, he says. Management are too far removed from the day-to-day functioning of the legal system and that is damaging its independence and quality.
Dozens of airline passengers were forced to swim for their lives Friday after their plane missed a runway and landed in a sea lagoon on a remote island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
The Air Niugini Boeing 737-800 aircraft carrying 47 people — 35 passengers and 12 crew members — plunged into the water after it “landed short of the runway,” at the international airport on Weno, the main island of Chuuk state in Micronesia on Friday, according to a statement from Air Niugini, the national carrier of Papua New Guinea.
The airplane proceeded normally until final approach when the weather conditions suddenly deteriorated and it began raining hard, according to the independent website JACDEC, which monitors airline safety and crash data.
Within minutes, local fishermen were on the scene in small motor boats to rescue people. Everyone on board survived, Air Niugini said.
“At this point, it is still unclear whether the aircraft overshot the end of the runway or ditched in the lagoon before reaching the runway,” JACDEC said.
“Despite water ingress, the aircraft managed to stay afloat for some time allowing passenger evacuation via the over wing exits and the forward passenger door. The Boeing later submerged below the window line.”
Bill Jaynes, managing editor of a Micronesia-based newspaper, was on the plane when it hit the water.
“It’s just surreal. I thought we landed hard until I looked over and saw a hole in the side of the plane and water was coming in, and I thought, well, this is

However, if I run avahi-discover, I see the other instance of the
service along with all our printers. Everything appears to be operating
normally.
I'm using the compatibility layer because we'd like to run under Linux,
but our primary target is Windows and thus Bonjour. It seems like
overkill at the moment to code up an interface for both APIs.
I'm assuming (based on the fact that I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and based
on the results from avahi-discover) that the DNS server is in fact
running and all required Avahi components are in place. What am I
overlooking here?

Hi,
Thanks Hans for the patch concerning enumerations. - Certain things now work
as I thought they should, others don't . :-(
In the meantime I downloaded and installed the latest (yesterdays) CONTeXT.
1. Numbering starts at 2, and the following items get numberd 4,6,
2. I detected, that the option style=command, I used style=\em, does not
give the desired result. The first item would be slanted, the second would
be regular and the third again slanted. - Hoewer using style=slanted makes
all items slanted.
Please find attached a minimal test file (probe.tex)

Hi,
I could not find this bug report on the upstream tracker.
Maybe it was not transfered when upstream have migrated from mantis to
github. The closest opened issue I found would be #322 [0].
I believe this report could be closed or at least updating "forwarded"
value to #322@github if relevant (or a new upstream issue if necessary).

Agree that differentiating "forwarding" to attached SF instances vs subsequent SFF's is logical and intuitive (to me) and I prefer to acknowledge that there is a difference. But, I was addressing a suggestion to simplify. In practice, 61 or 62 or 63 decrements of TTL all probably mean the same thing :).

"That's Crump's home." "Then he headed east in this direction... on the 5 about ten miles to the Utah border where he stole the car." "You got it." "Yeah, but you caught up with him in Wells." "Where's that?" " That's here." " So that means that he started... off in this direction." "Then all of a sudden, he turned around and he headed west..." "To Wells." "Why?"

"I'm finding what look like fragments of petrous bone embedded... in the remaining portion of the auditory canal." "In fact, I seem to be looking straight through to the osseous labyrinth or what's left of it." "It's almost like a little bomb went off in her ear." " May I?" " Please." "There seems to be some kind of tumefaction within the lateral sinus." "Patient is a white male, age 40, no known history..." "No, he just went rammy on me." "Accucheck is normal."

"Look, I have no idea what killed this woman but I have to assume it's communicable." "Yeah." "Another body has been found just outside of Montello-- same apparent cause of death-- some kind of massive aneurysm or rupture." " Uh-huh." " And Mulder, I've called the C.D.C." "They're on their way but Patrick Crump may be infected." "So you need to quarantine his cell and make sure that anybody... who's had any close contact with him whatsoever has been quarantined as well, and that means you, Mulder."

Hi All,
Our customers use both GDB and JTAG debugging at the same time and setting breakpoint between debug sessions are cumbersome, the toggle breakpoint type selection need to be switch to match the breakpoint type inorder to create the corresponding breakpoint for each debug session.
I would like to change the way CDT toggle breakpoint target factory enablement, by making them more specific to the current debug context, project type and IDeclaration element.
For Disassembly view: the factory will be enabled when the debug session is either cdi or dsf-gdb.
For Editor: the factory will be enabled when the editor belongs to a project that supports ICBreakpoint Type, a CProject will have a new project scope preference.
For IDeclaration: the factory will behave similar to editor.
Does any one see any problem with this approach or have other suggest?
Thanks,
Patrick
Are there any things that can be done from kopete to smooth out and/or
improve webcam images? Either at the user level or at the software
level, or...?
I have found that Yahoo via Kopete generally is terribly choppy
although it handles low light levels very well. MSN via Kopete is
noticeably smoother, however while my outgoing cam stream seems to go
just fine, the incoming stream slows to a crawl. I'm not kidding when
I say in some cases it took ten minutes for the image to transmit.
Would that be anything on Kopete's end, or on her end (she was using
Yahoo's actual IM client on her end).
Thanks!

Hi Guys,
I am having ClamAV running in an ubuntu machine.
Making use of libclamav.jar, I am scanning files getting uploaded in to my
application based on Java/JEE running in windows.
*the basic stuff with EICAR text is working fine*
Here I need to make sure no exe file/zipped exe is attached as a document.
*We are concerned about scenarios where a malware may get attached as
renamed one, for eg, an exe file just renamed to .txt or something else, or
zipping in different levels.*
*We are analyzing the scope for ClamAV in handling this. *
*Kindly share your comments.*

Hagai,
It may be annoying, but it is exactly what RFC3261 prescribes: the first 2xx terminates the transaction, any subsequent 2xx MUST be passed to the TU (ie the Shootist application)
I did fix Shootist to respond with ACK to each 2xx it receives, not only the first one. A real application would include logic to distinguish retransmissions from responses to forked requests

I am looking to implement a number of things and you're not being a dick for suggesting starting smaller. I am really only looking to make a barebones version first, nothing fancy just something that works. As for the payment issue, I totally understand what you are saying. However, I am not dealing with a tech-savvy user base who will seek out other options. My target market is interested in a easily visible listing site with a clean, quick method to post an Ad. The small amount of money charged will maybe equal 1/4 of what they would spend on lunch while serving a sorely needed purpose. Also, not being tech-savvy, offering a free site first then switching to a paid site will not go over well, despite the amount of money being fairly trivial to them. I would rather begin paid even if it means a slower adoption rate in the beginning. I understand this is a topic that could be debated much more but for this instance, I will begin with it being a paid application, just at a discounted rate for the first three months or so. I have no interest in PayPal and will not deal with them unless I absolutely have to, which I see being a very, very small possibility. Again, not a tech-savvy user base. Stripe seems nice due to its JSON api, use of a payment token so I do not have to secure card info, and the payment process only requires the bare minimum, not a fucking form with name, setup a password, etc. Extra steps are the #1 deal killer for adoption within this target market. Thank you again for taking the time to respond, it is really appreciated. My optimistic side sees you did not say, "No this framework and DB choice is stupid and unfeasible/wrong type/wrong size, etc. The recommendation I come across most often for learning programming is to build something that interests you, and for me this is it. I understand sometimes people get overwhelmed and abandon the endeavor and that is a valid concern but I have given this a lot of thought and I proceed at a pretty measured pace to prevent burnout. Thanks again!
Well, there could be various reasons. At one range they don't allow you to pick up your brass citing "health concerns," and sweep it up, sort it, and reload it as range ammo to sell. Having steel and aluminum casings are just one less thing for them to sort out. At the other, better range they don't allow steel cased rifle ammo because most of it is a lead core wrapped in a thin sheet of steel followed by a copper jacket. They're afraid the steel will hurt the back stop.
Saying "but the label says..." is ludicrous. Do you throw out your milk the second it says it's spoiled, or do you smell it and find out for yourself? MLK was classified as a terrorist and marijuana is classified as more dangerous than cocaine. Our government is flawed, and political agendas

Ice. Read his take below.
C-Note of Too White Crew performs at the Bluebird in Bloomington, Ind.
In the years leading up to this film’s release, I’ve wondered, like any filmmaker, how people were going to react to it. Thanks to Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake’s Super Bowl show, fines from the FCC was a top concern for many at PBS, and the topic of my film lent itself to some objectionable language. So for years while my film waited for an audience, I fielded people’s questions and comments.
“When am I going to see it?”
“White kids and hip-hop? You’re doing a film about wiggers?”
“Don’t you think we’re past this already?”
“Is that what my kid is doing?”
“It’s going to be on PBS?”
“Did you really interview Vanilla Ice?”
First, yes, I did really interview Vanilla Ice, and yes, he really did consent to the interview. To be honest, I found his cooperation surprising. Getting white people to talk about race was perhaps the most difficult part of making this film, and that difficulty doubled when it came to white rappers. I would have loved to interview Eminem, for example, but I had little success with anything but being brushed off by his handlers. The perception was that he had too much to risk. Too many people, too many hip-hop magazines, some of which were started by white people, might use it as an opportunity to go after him.
The perception that race, as a topic for discussion, is bad for business is one that I encountered with every white rapper I spoke to with a market to their name. So those with a fan base that did agree to be in this film the people –– Sage Francis, Aesop Rock, and some of the others –– deserve some credit for putting the topic of the film above the safety of avoiding it. By doing so, I hope that they, along with all the film’s participants, are given a sincere listening to by viewers. Even Vanilla Ice, who has been at the butt of the joke for so long that his appearance in a television show has the effect of a laugh track, deserves credit. He’s the kind of person who just puts himself out there –– without thinking too much of the consequences. That may be naïve, but I think his perspective should be taken into account, at the very least because it is forthright.
In talking about my film with those that have not yet seen it, there is all too often a kneejerk response to side either for or against whites in hip-hop, as if the topic were as simple as choosing sides in a football game –– on one side, the color-blind participants, who just love the music for what it is; on the other side, the racists, who are mimicking, mocking, romanticizing, and capitalizing on it. Rarely is it so straightforward. Take the characters in the film and give thought to what they’re doing –– Sage Francis, Aesop Rock, Vanilla Ice, Too White Crew,

Q:
jQuery moving a table row - Pretty effect
I'm working on a simple suggestion voting system where users can +1 or -1 suggestions (in a similar way to how stack-overflow rates questions).
These suggestions are presented in a long table and the +1 or -1 is done through ajax, as the table is sorted by the amount of votes an item has, when one is +1 or -1'd the table loses it's order.
I am aware I can use the table sorter jQuery plugin to fix this but it makes it very easy to lose the item you +-'d, do you know how to move the row up/down the table while following it? (Perhaps similar to the way ordering is done on the iPhone?) with a slick animation?
Thanks for your time,
A:
I managed to solve this using a few library's and made it look pretty good. What is in fact happening is a duplicate table is being made in the background, then an animation is applied and the two tables are swapped.
See http://jsfiddle.net/NP4t3/1/ and vote people up or down!
It was based on work from http://www.scottlogic.co.uk/2011/01/animating-html-ranking-tables-with-javascript/ and then I added automatic sorting!
All the code is in the fiddle (including the library's), hope this is of use to someone!
Q:
Multiple Storyboards in WatchKit App
Is there any way to use multiple storyboards inside a WatchKit app? From what I can tell, you can only use a single one which makes it difficult when working in a large team. The APIs available on UIStoryboard are as follows:
func instantiateInitialViewController() -> AnyObject
func instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier(_ identifier: String) -> AnyObject!
Neither of which support WatchKit objects. Additionally, the WKInterfaceController class method for reloading different interface controllers only takes an array of identifiers.
class func reloadRootControllersWithNames(_ names: [AnyObject],
contexts contexts: [AnyObject]?)
Based on all this information, I'm pretty positive that it's not possible. I wanted to ask the experts out there if you could confirm my suspicions.
A:
No WatchKit does not currently support multiple Storyboard files.
I believe this limitation is due to the early stages of the current complexities associated with running code remotely on iPhone and Storyboards on Apple Watch.
WatchKit automatically generates and configures the required Storyboard for you when adding a Watch target to a project. This storyboard includes your WKGlanceController and WKUserNotificationInterfaceController of which you only need one.
Perhaps submit a feature request.

How to Animate a Gradient on a Path to visualize data flow in WPF/WCF app

The path is used to visualize the connection state between two nodes. Red means the nodes are disconnected, green means they're connected.

If we’re talking about a 1 for 1 - Heiskanen for Karlsson - that is **highway robbery** for Dallas. It would likely be Heiskanen + before the Sens even *consider* the trade, but who knows with the Sens management anymore.

Oh, my old relationship had more problems than just being boring, sorry i didnt got into it that deep in my earlier text. We wasnt happy together anymore, didnt have any attraction, no sex, etc. It was like we were best friends, and I still like him very much! I just realized that I deserved a more loving relationship, and when I met this INFP, we clicked so much better, on a whole other level. Me and my ex is still friends, but now I feel loved, desired and have a partner that i connect with on a much more personal level. But sure, It wasnt the easiest to leave a five year long relationship ofc, prob the hardest thing.
Girl slept around with every single one of my friends in our circle of friends in the neighborhood. I guess it was my turn. Being a horny teen at the time I probably would have been fine with just that and been sure to use protection regardless, but she had a very very strong smell of dead rotten fish that proceeded her where ever she went. If she was anywhere near you knew. Ran into her many years later and whatever caused the smell seemed to be cleared up.
Not everyone can follow the spl or high level ranked scene. Not everyone is going to be up to date on the latest builds or meta gods. Even if they do find out a god is meta, them trying that meta god might get them "deserved bm" from people like you. Basically no one needs people that feel they have the "right" to bm others. Keep the bm to yourself and maybe in place offer legitimate constructive criticism.

of the mess Lena and James are making. Kara practically jumped into the private elevator, having to restrain herself as she punched in the keycode. The car had the faintest of scents: Lena’s perfume and that strange lotion James always put on.
“Turn around.” Definitely James. There’s some shifting: manicured nails on fabric, a belt buckle hastily unfastened, a zipper, pulled ever so slowly.
“Can this thing move any faster?”, Kara growled. Watching them was a treasure, listening from afar was sweet torture.
Lena’s strained voice cut in, “You started in the elevator, quit teasing me and jus—AH...ohhhhhh”.
“Fffuck”, James moaned, so deep it was obscene.
Around floor 48, Kara realized she had pressed a handprint into the elevator wall. Mercifully the car reached its destination. Even before the doors slid open, one wouldn’t need super-hearing to discern what was happening.
“Right there, righ—oh fuck!“ Lena sounded close already. Blue satin heels were left in the hallway, a vase had rolled into the living room.
James made no noise aside from the sound of his hips against Lena. Kara followed the mess down the carpeted hallway. Kara picked up James’ tie, a prop for later.
Kara arrived right on time. They were facing slightly away from her. Lena was facedown on the bed, on her knees, arms outstretched, gripping the sheets. James entire body was flush with hers, bracing himself with his left arm, holding Lena up with his right. He was buried to the hilt.
Kara stared, mouth agape, at the scene. They seemed unaware that she was in the doorway. Briefly Kara wondered if that’s what it looks like when he or Lena is behind her. She unbuttoned her shirt to reach a painfully hard nipple, her right hand delving below her waistband. If she was going to come in the middle of this doorway, so be it, she wasn’t going interrupt what was in front of her.
At some point the two ended up on their side, James rubbing Lena’s clit while he pistoned in and out of her. Lena was unintelligible at this point, coming for the second time. James went still for what seemed like forever, sighing into Lena’s neck, whispering how beautiful she looked as he spilled into her.
“Did you enjoy the show over there?”, said with whatever voice Lena had left.
Kara, who had now slid down to the floor and rubbed herself to oblivion, could hardly answer simple questions at this point. “Uh...y-yea, um...your elevator is too slow.”

all the elements of an array from a start index (default zero) to an end index (default array length) with a static value. It returns the modified array.
^-- a STATIC value. Read more about fill here
To make it clearer, this:
const chunks = Array(3).fill(Array());
can be "interpreted" as this:
const chunks = new Array(3);
var arr = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < chunks.length; i++) chunks.push(arr);
So, basically, the same reference of the array is pushed to the original array; hence, altering arr means altering all the references of it, so all the references in chunks are pointing to the same array, so all are "altered", meaning they all will point to the same array and share the same values.
You can solve that in many ways, the fastest I can think of is using Array.from as done below, where the callback returns a new array everytime.
const data = [
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
{
name: 'a',
surname: 'b'
},
];
const chunks = Array.from({length: 3}, (_) => []);
data.forEach((value, index) => chunks[index%chunks.length].push(value));
console.log(chunks);
Relevant code explanation
Array.from({length: 3}, (_) => []);
Array.from creates a new array from the defined properties list. in this case, it creates a new array with length 3.
(_) => [] is the callback invoked to assign the value of each element of the array. In that case, I'm just returning a new array. This could also be shortened to: () => []
And that's it.
Q:
Samsung galaxy tab 2 7" gt p3110
I just bought this tablet with Android 4.0.3 and at the store they told me that this model has 8GB, when I check on settings, I only have 4GB. Why? Does the operating system consume 4gb? I'm new at this i'm sorry.
A:
This is way off topic for Stack Overflow.
But to answer your question, The 8GB quoted is the raw hard drive size. i.e. Before drive formatting and OS install.
When drive formatting and OS install has taken place the storage available to the user is usually considerably less.
Saying that, a loss of 50% seems like a lot.

moving all my
midi/virtual tracks into Audio tracks BEFORE I bounce?
What I've been doing is recording numerous
midi/virtual tracks, with a few Audio vocals - - then
mix down to various Buses, and from there to OUTPUT
1/2 for bouncing onto AIFF files (to burn through
ITUNES onto a CD) - - this CD is what has lost a
little volume - -
IF the answer is YES _ - I need to put the midi tracks
onto Audio tracks first, then - - how do I do this?

Hi,
this series provides initial support for the Allwinner A64 SoC,
which is based on four ARM Cortex-A53 cores implementing the ARMv8
64-bit architecture.
On top of this there is also initial support for the Pine64 board,
for which you can find more information and links in the linux-sunxi
Wiki [1].
The resulting kernel boots fine on my development samples I have
here, though the actual boot process is a bit involved at the moment.
You can find more information and a ready-to-flash image here [2].
The first three patches fix warnings that appear when compiling some
existing Allwinner drivers for arm64.
Patch 4/11 enables the Allwinner/sunxi platform for the arm64
architecture, so one can select the required drivers during
configuration.
Patch 5/11 adds the (currently) inevitable pinctrl driver, this
addresses the comments I got from an earlier post and also fixes
the IRQ banking which I got wrong before.
Patch 6-9 pimp the sunxi clocks drivers to deal with the A64. It adds
a new generic driver for the bus clock gates which relies on DT for
providing the parent relationship. That makes adding new SoCs much
easier, since there should be no more kernel code changes necessary.
Also the sunxi mux clocks learns about the critical-clocks property,
again this moves a previously hard-coded information into the DT.
The final two patches eventually add the A64 .dtsi and the actual
dts files for the two Pine64 board variants.
In the moment we support the basic peripherals like GIC, timer, clocks,
GPIO and UART. The MMC support seems to fail to find the regulator at
the moment, I will send a follow up patch once this is fixed.
Meanwhile you can use an initrd to get to a prompt.
Please have a look and comment on the patches. We might want to split
the series if some patches seem too controversial for being merged
soonish, please let me know if this is the case and I am happy to
rearrange the series.
The patches are based on mripard/sunxi/for-next[3] as of yesterday
and can be found in the repo over here[4].
Cheers,
Andre
Hello,
I'd like to override the behavior of the buttons in the "pseudo editor" CSourceNotFoundEditor in our DSF debugger.
I contributed a new editor type that derives from CSourceNotFoundEditor and overrode few methods in it.
So far so good.
The problem I hit is DsfSourceDisplayAdapter is referencing the contribution of CSourceNotFoundEditor via the constant ICDebugUIConstants.CSOURCENOTFOUND_EDITOR_ID.
My first thought was to override parts of DsfSourceDisplayAdapter that are referencing the

A:
Depends what exactly do you want to learn about Hadoop Ecosystem.
I would recommend you to start from this book:
Hadoop: The Definitive Guide it can help you to understand how it works under the hood and get some understanding what Hadoop ecosystem consists of. You don't need all chapters of this book, but many of them may be really useful.
Also you should probably check this book
Spark - The Definitive Guide due to spark is commonly used in Data Science area. But it's more practical book than the previous one.
Q:
Filtering on a joined table but also including data where the joined & filtered table is empty?
I have a table with User Information and a table with tag information. The tag table basically has a TagType, a UserID and a value for the tag. I joined the two tables based on the UserID.
Now I want to query a list of all users with the values for the tag with the TagType = 1.
SELECT [user].name, [tag].value
FROM user LEFT OUTER JOIN
tag ON user.id = tag.userid
WHERE [tag].type = 1
So far, so good. This works well.
The problem I have now is that I also want to see users in my query that do not have a tag with the Tag Type = 1. In that case it should just return NULL. Right now these users are not returned by the query.
If I get rid of the 'WHERE [tag].id = 1' then they show up but it will return several lines for each user - one for each existing Tag Type - but I don't want that.
In a sense I want to get:
Column 1: User Name
Column 2: Tag value of Tag Type 1 if it exists, otherwise NULL
I am stuck right there. I don't know how to get the other users in but keep the other tag types out.
A:
Put your WHERE condition inside the JOIN condition.
SELECT [user].name, [tag].value
FROM user LEFT OUTER JOIN
tag ON user.id = tag.userid and [tag].type = 1
Q:
A set of numbers
Problem: Let $E(x)$ be the number defined by the following expression
\begin{equation*}
E(x)=\sqrt[3]\frac{x^3-3x+(x^2-1)\sqrt{x^2-4}}{2}+\sqrt[3]\frac{x^3-3x-(x^2-1)\sqrt{x^2-4}}{2}
\end{equation*}
where $x$ is a real number and
$\sqrt[3]{Z}$ denotes the real cubic root of the real number $Z$.
Determine the set
$ \{E(n); n\in \mathbb{N}$ and $n > 1\}$
A:
Let: $t=E(n)$ for some $n\gt 1$. So: $$t=\sqrt[3]{\frac {n^3-3n+(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4}}{2}}+\sqrt[3]{\frac {n^3-3n-(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4}}{2}}$$ From here: $$t^3=\frac {n^3-3n+(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4}}{2}+\frac {n^3-3n-(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4}}{2}+3t\sqrt[3]{\frac {(n^3-3n+(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4})(n^3-3n-(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4})}{4}}$$ But: $$(n^3-3n+(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4})(n^3-3n-(n^2-1)\sqrt{n^2-4})=(n^3-3n)^2-(n^2-1)^2(n^2-4)=n^6-6n^4+9n^2-(n^6-6n^4+9n^2-4)=4$$ Thus: $$t^3-3t-n^3+3n=0$$ Which means: $$(t-n)(t^2+n^2+tn-3)=0$$ But the equation: $t^2+n^2+tn-3=0$ hasn't real root for $n\gt 2$. And when $n=2$, we have: $$E(2)=2$$ And finally: $E(n)=n$ for every $n\gt 1$

Hi,
(in php-gtk 1.0.1a, windows) I've a GtkOptionMenu to provide a selection
to the user. Now I'm saving his preference and what on application start
up select one of the GtkMenuItems "by hand" after the GtkOptionMenu has
been created.
Currently I do this following:
1. I search for the MenuItem I want to have pre-selected for the user
2. I call it's select() and/or activate() method
During testing I caled both, but the real problem is that the
GtkOptionMenu does not reflect the change, i.e. it does not show the
MenuItem I selected BUT when I clock on the GtkOptionMenu to choose
another one, the given entry IS selected.
But this seems to be incorrect, because then the MenuItem is always
drawn selected when I open the GtkOptionMenu.
I think I'm missing something the GtkOptionMenu provides to simply tell
it "show me this GtkMenuItem selected".
Thanks for any help,

Either WINE developers or Luca will feel alienated. So, I think the discussion should be *now*, before taking further decision.
Personally, I still don't understand what's special about this code. If no Microsoft code was ever copied or used in d3d1x then I don't see how WINE developers are tainted by the d3d1x state tracker presence than by the other stuff in master now.
As I said before, we all read third party NDA hardware specs and reference code in the past. It is standard practice. Several other members of the community had to reverse engineer hardware operation. I think it would be dishonest to allows ourselves this much so far, and refuse Luca's code because he read publicly available Microsoft docs or reference code.
My understanding is that this is more than about legality of this code: Microsoft can sue whoever they want, with or without legal basis, and WINE developers want to publicly show beyond doubt that they we're not near even miles from Microsoft code, to deter Microsoft to sue them, and so incur in legal expenses.
But I don't see how we can accommodate that, and continue to maintain that Gallium is about the abstraction of many graphic APIs and many OSes. Even Mesa was always about many OSes too.

Hi,
I am new to solr and I guess this is a basic tokenizer question so please
bear with me.
I am trying to use SOLR to index a few (Indian) legal judgments in text
form and search against them. One of the key points with these documents is
that the sections/provisions of law usually have punctuation/special
characters in them. For example search queries will TYPICALLY be section
12AA, section 80-IA, section 9(1)(vii) and the text of the judgments
themselves will contain these sort of text with section references all over
the place.
Now, using a default schema setup with standardtokenizer, which seems to
delimit on whitespace AND punctuations, I get really bad results because it
looks like 12AA is split and results such having 12 and AA in them turn up.
It becomes worse with 9(1)(vii) with results containing 9 and 1 etc being
turned up.
What is the best solution here? I really just want to index the document
as-is and also to do whitespace tokenizing on the search and nothing more.
So in other words:
a) I would like the text document to be indexed as-is with say 12AA and
9(1)(vii) in the document stored as it is mentioned.
b) I would like to be able to search for 12AA and for 9(1)(vii) and get
proper full matches on them without any splitting up/munging etc.
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for your time.
Thanks

Same goes for browsing to that directory via Firefox.

his; and in 1895 she was sent to England, against her will, with
a special scholarship from the Nizam. She remained in England,
with an interval of travel in Italy, till 1898, studying first at
King's College, London, then, till her health again broke down,
at Girton. She returned to Hyderabad in September 1898, and in
the December of that year, to the scandal of all India, broke
through the bonds of caste, and married Dr. Naidu. "Do you know
I have some very beautiful poems floating in the air," she wrote
to me in 1904; "and if the gods are kind I shall cast my soul
like a net and capture them, this year. If the gods are
kind--and grant me a little measure of health. It is all I need
to make my life perfect, for the very 'Spirit of Delight' that
Shelley wrote of dwells in my little home; it is full of the
music of birds in the garden and children in the long arched
verandah." There are songs about the children in this book; they
are called the Lord of Battles, the Sun of Victory, the
Lotus-born, and the Jewel of Delight.
"My ancestors for thousands of years," I find written in one of
her letters, "have been lovers of the forest and mountain caves,
great dreamers, great scholars, great ascetics. My father is a
dreamer himself, a great dreamer, a great man whose life has been
a magnificent failure. I suppose in the whole of India there are
few men whose learning is greater than his, and I don't think
there are many men more beloved. He has a great white beard and
the profile of Homer, and a laugh that brings the roof down. He
has wasted all his money on two great objects: to help others,
and on alchemy. He holds huge courts every day in his garden of
all the learned men of all religions--Rajahs and beggars and
saints and downright villains all delightfully mixed up, and all
treated as one. And then his alchemy! Oh dear, night and day
the experiments are going on, and every man who brings a new
prescription is welcome as a brother. But this alchemy is, you
know, only the material counterpart of a poet's craving for
Beauty, the eternal Beauty. 'The makers of gold and the makers
of verse,' they are the twin creators that sway the world's
secret desire for mystery; and what in my father is the genius of
curiosity--the very essence of all scientific genius--in me is
the desire for beauty. Do you remember Pater's phrase about
Leonardo da Vinci, 'curiosity and the desire of beauty'?"
It was the desire of beauty that made her a poet; her "nerves of
delight" were always quivering at the contact of beauty. To
those who knew her in England, all the life of the tiny figure
seemed to concentrate itself in the eyes; they turned towards
beauty as the sunflower turns towards the sun, opening wider and

Edit: I noticed this response in a related SO question (Design by contract using assertions or exceptions?):
The rule of thumb is that you should use assertions when you are trying to catch your own errors, and exceptions when trying to catch other people's errors. In other words, you should use exceptions to check the preconditions for the public API functions, and whenever you get any data that are external to your system. You should use asserts for the functions or data that are internal to your system.
To me, this makes sense, and can be coupled with the 'Assert then throw' technique outlined below.
Thoughts welcome!
A:
First, MyClass being valid should be, of course, expressed by MyClass's invariant.
Second, you say "We expect MyMode to be updated by external users of this class" - of course the setter of this mode should have the typical design-by-contract form (as any public function):
void Setter(mode m)
{
// INVARIANT ASSERT (1)
// PRECONDITION ASSERTS (uses "m") (2)
// BODY (3)
// POSTCONDITION ASSERTS (if any) (4)
// INVARIANT ASSERT (5)
}
In (5) you would fail with a screaming assertion violation that the invariant doesn't hold. But in (2) you would fail, earlier, because the mode m passed is invalid. This would send a clear message to the user and thus solves your problem.
And please don't tell me that the mode field is public and users change it without any control whatsoever.
Edit: About assertions and release mode, see also:
Are assertions always bad?
When should assertions stay in production code?
Design by contract using assertions or exceptions?
A:
I basically agree with the conclusion of your own question: if Alice's code detects a mistake Alice made, it's a case for Assert (and assertions should be left on in production code, unless performance dictates otherwise). If Alice's code detects a mistake in Eve's code, it's a case for Exceptions, assuming that Alice and Eve are on opposite sides of your bug-tracking software.
Now that's a general rule of thumb. Assertions, in a slightly modified form, can also be used as a "heads-up, developer!" mechanism (and then they should not be called "ASSERT" but "HEADS_UP" or something similar). What if your company develops a client/server product, and the server sends invalid data to the client? If you're a client programmer, you feel like treating it as external data (it is Eve's data that is kaputt) and you want to throw an exception. But a "softer" assertion, which makes Visual Studio's debugger halt right there, can be a very good way to detect those problems really early and report it to the server team. In a real installation, it could very well be Mallory tempering with the data between Eve and Alice, but most of the time it's really a bug by one of your colleagues, and you want to see it when it happens - that's why I call them "heads-up" assertions: they don't replace exceptions, but

[6]. Hypothermia also delays the glutathione release and reduces the production of O2 free radicals [15]. Meanwhile, it increases the central nervous system's tolerance to ischemia and reduces the anaerobic metabolites [16]. Currently, the only neuroprotective action which is clinically widespread is methylprednisolone prescription [17]. However, in most of the studies, the hypothermia neuroprotective effect was stronger than that of a high dose of methylprednisolone [4,18]. In our study, early onset hypothermia had a better neuroprotective effect than methylprednisolone alone. Theearly onset hypothermia group performed slightly better than the methylprednisolone group, but the difference was not significant. However, the tail-flick test in the early onset hypothermia group was marginally (p=0.054) better, and MDA level was significantly (p=0.035) better than that of the methylprednisolone group. This finding has been also reported by other studies, and it seems hypothermia can play a major role in spinal cord injury treatment going forward.
Some studies on ischemic and traumatic brain injuries have shown that the sooner the hypothermia starts, the better the effect will be [19,20]. The only study on the effect of delayed onset hypothermia on SCI found that early onset hypothermia has a better result as compared with hypothermia starting three hours after the injury [21]. In the present study, early onset hypothermia clearly had a stronger neuroprotective effect than delayed hypothermia in the biochemical tests (p=0.004). However, there was not a significant difference between the early and the delayed onset hypothermia groups in the functional tests (p=0.384). The lack of a significant difference in the functional tests between the two groups might have several reasons. Using a non-optimal method of hypothermia is probably the most important reason. Duration and depth of hypothermia and speed of rewarming are factors that influence the results of this method. It has been reported that longer hypothermia has a better effect [22], but the optimal period has not yet been determined. In addition, the length of the rewarming period is important, and using short term rewarming may lead to the return of some of the damaging processes [23]. Nanda et al. [24] have suggested that the rewarming speed of 0.25 degrees centigrade per hour is suitable; in our study, we used a rewarming speed of about 6 degrees centigrade per hour. In the current study, we found that applied hypothermia was more effective on the biochemical tests, possibly because they were checked relatively soon after rewarming. If the duration of hypothermia or rewarming period was not ideal, it is possible the secondary damaging processes started again, which in turn negatively affected the func- tional tests because they were checked a relatively longer time after rewarming.
Trauma intensity is another factor that may influence the effects of any neuroprotective treatment [25]. The differences between early and late onset hypothermia methods may be more apparent in different severities of spinal cord injury. The lack of a significant difference between early and late onset hypothermia in functional tests can also be explained differently; it is possible that early onset mechanisms, like calcium hemostasis which starts minutes after injury
