Summons which are 80% of what you will need for your Omega endgame grids (F2P grids). >I don't support selective application of laws... which feeds corruption and racial bias... something that Jews have struggled against for thousands of years... now the UN is no different. Oh, now the UN is racist against Jews, what about those holocaust survivors or nobel laureats i mentioned, they also hate jews? Your argument is retarded and I already refuted every selective application you cited, because its bullshit. >Your view of Israel appears to be rooted in a false Middle-School analogy, whereby you think that a desire for Jews to have a nation and protect it is some sort of "bully" tactic. There have been people living in Jerusalem for a very long time, long long before Israel was marked out on a map. Instead of sharing the land the zionists have systematically removed people from their own homes and forcefully taken land that someone else has lived on for generations. >It's not, it's basic survival against people that have clearly stated they want to murder all Jews: You come to my house and i give you space on the couch, then you try and evict me because you read in a book that god gave you my house, I'm not going to like you. Its not really any more complex than that. >>"The Day of Judgment will not come until Muslims fight the Jews, when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say, 'O Muslim, O servant of God, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.' well, sounds like even the trees are anti-semitic now. Perhaps you should take it easy for a while, watch some tv or something. Also if you stop defending the use of military force against children by crying about anti-semitism then some of the trees might not hate on you. > Which conflicts specifically? WWII I'm assuming, maybe wars with Russia as well? At least you stick up for your side, American history is all about how bad we were now. Many different. In our region we are arguing about many things they may be the one that happened in the 90s as well as in middle ages. Mainly ethnic cleansings we were doing each to other. Like you know group X started to settle on the clay belonging to Y and few centuries later X started to pretend and behave that it was always their clay and rightful part of their country pissing Y resulting in bloodshed. West Europe had colonies in Africa, India etc - we had colonies or were colonized within each other. For example Polish nobility was treating Ukrainians more or less like their private property and slaves for centuries and attempting to do full polonization of them, and was colonizating Ukrainian, Belarusian and Lithuanian lands with Polish settlers. Later in XX century Poles were acting like such terrains were Part of Poland since over 90000000000000000 years and Lithuanians, Belarusians and Ukrainians can go fuck themselves. Polish far

be folded into a smaller shape"? Does screen mean "a large, flat, white surface on which images or movies are shown"? Does "constructed the sales booth out of a folding screen tipped on its side" mean "Briony used a folding screen whose side is tipped to construct the sales booth"? Does out of mean "used to say what something is made from"? Does line in the sentence "and lined the collection box in red crêpe paper" mean "to cover the inner surface of (something)"? Does in in the sentence "and lined the collection box in red crêpe paper" have same meaning as the word "with" in the sentence "I lined the box with paper"? Which meaning of "in" is used in the sentence "and lined the collection box in red crêpe paper"? http://learnersdictionary.com/definition/in I looked up the word "in" in the Merriam-Webster Learner's Dictionary, but I couldn't find the definition of "in" which matches the meaning of "with" in the sentence: "I lined the box with paper". Does the word "tempest" mean "a situation in which people are very upset or excited"? http://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/tempest A: Does tipped mean "having a specified color or material on the end or tip"? Is tipped an adjective? English lets past participles of verbs act as modifiers (especially "post-positive" adjectives or adjectives that follow the noun instead of precede it), and the meaning of "X Y'ed" is a shortcut for "X that is Y'ed" or "X that has been Y'ed." So "folding screen tipped on its side" = "folding screen that has been tipped on its side" Does folding mean "able to be folded into a smaller shape"? Does screen mean "a large, flat, white surface on which images or movies are shown"? English has a lot of "two word" compound "words," where two words together really describe a separate concept, even if the separate concept is related to meanings of the individual words. It's not worth breaking down the individual words in these instances, just pretend there's a hyphen between them making them one word. Ice cream is a classic example, and folding screen is pretty much one of these. This is what could possibly be meant by "folding screen". Does out of mean "used to say what something is made from"? Yes. Out of carries the implication that the things used to construct X are not normally used to create X. Does line in the sentence "and lined the collection box in red crêpe paper" mean "to cover the inner surface of (something)"? It can be used to mean to cover any flat surface with something thin like paper, implying decoration or protection. A typical meaning is to line a floor with newspaper to prevent a pet from making a permanent mess. Does in in the sentence: "and lined the collection box in red crêpe paper" have same meaning as the word "with" in the sentence "I lined the box with paper"? You could interchange in with with here. It's possible that with can be meant instrumentally, e.g. I lined the box with a tool X

(officially at the urging of his mother, who helped to deliver the woman's son, but ultimately at the prodding of his own conscience) and she becomes for him a figure of signal importance. For Ramsay is convinced that there is something special about Mary Dempster, in fact he is certain that she is a saint. This is not only the result of his guilt, but due to the fact that Ramsay is certain that he has personally witnessed three miracles performed by her (one the resurrection of his apparently dead older brother). Ramsay becomes obsessed with saints and saintliness and his life's work, his true passion, the study of these enigmatic figures in human history. He is not a particularly religious man, but he is not incredulous of the validity of religious experience either. This is where Davies is able to bring in one of his own favourite obsessions: Jungian archetypes and the mythical significance of history. The lens through which Ramsay sees the world is coloured by this interpretation and it is a fascinating one that informs all of Davies' other books. Dunstan Ramsay is an excellent narrator and his voice is pitch-perfect. He seems to contain the perfect balance of incisive observation with a somewhat deprecating self-awareness...though of course we probably shouldn't take everything he says as gospel. Through Ramsay's eyes we view the petty concerns and grotesqueries of small town life, things that, while petty (or perhaps *because* they are petty), are more than powerful enough to destroy a human life; we share in some of the horrors of the First World War as well as the ennobling elements of life that can overcome such things; and we witness the ways in which, sometimes unbeknownst to us, our lives are intertwined with those of everyone we meet, no matter how disconnected and solitary we think we are. _Fifth Business_ isn't my favourite book by Davies, but it's a very good one and is an excellent introduction to the kind of writing you'll experience if you choose to try him out. Not only was Davies a learned man, able to convey his learning in his books without sounding like a school-teacher or a man with a mission to convert (even though he was, perhaps, both things), but he was also a very accomplished writer: I know flattery when I hear it; but I do not often hear it. Furthermore, there is good flattery and bad; this was from the best cask. And what sort of woman was this who knew so odd a word as "hagiographer" in a language not her own? Nobody who was not a Bollandist had ever called me that before, yet it was a title I would not have exchanged to be called Lord of the Isles. Delightful prose! I must know more of this. Delightful prose indeed. Davies' novels seem to flow effortlessly, partly due to the charming and fluid voice he attains in them, and partly, I think, through his clever weaving of myth and symbol throughout what is, on the surface, a rather

in aikido. ashi waza for aikidoka postKuzushi. The judo concept of kuzushi: kuzushi, tsukuri and kake phases - breaking the balance, preparation and execution.Ma ai. How to deal with attacks at a very close grappling distance. Randori. Free practice with both partners trying to execute techniques. Randori does exist in aikido in the judo sense in the style established by Kenji Tomiki who saw aikido through the eyes of a judoka. How to deal with an actively resisting uncooperative attacker who is trying to throw you.Kata. Although aikido is kata based it is in rather a free way. It is good sometimes to study the precision and the rigorousness of formal kata - stylized forms.Shiai. I don't believe the sport aspect of shiai - contests - should be incorporated into aikido. But shiai in judo have positive aspects.Shime waza. Learn effective choking/strangling techniques.Kansetsu waza. Learn some joint techniques with a slightly different emphasis.Sutemi waza. How to do sacrifice techniques (which are not much used in aikido).Educational value. Jigoro Kano specifically designed judo to have an educational dimension. Seiryoku zenyo. The principle of achieving the maximum effect with the minimum effort.Jita kyoei. Mutual welfare and benefit is a basic social principle of judo. Jika no kansei. Striving for perfection as a complete person.The Kodokan, National Federations and the IJF. Single organizations! From the fractured world of aikido it seems an enviable and utopian system. Hi, my nane is José Vicente. I'm editor of KOKYU-DOSA (kokyu-dosa.blogspot.com) My english isn´t very well, but i want to say you, that your posts are fantastic.You have a magnificent power to comnicate, please teke me a fan of his work. I read your space frecuently, but in spanish, because my friend, Carina always give us many of his writings. Finally, Naill please continue sharing with us your beautiful experiences. All Aikido's lover will be greatful. Osaekomi is a holddown or pin and shiai is a match. In judo you can win a shiai by holding down your opponent. But judo holddowns are with the opponent face up - and often with the hands free to counter - so they are unsuitable for self-defence. In aikido katame waza - immobilizations - are face down mostly and much safer. Cheers Billy. All the best, Niall Sorry about that, Billy. I should have checked it yesterday. I added them now. Kuzushi is breaking the balance. In judo there is the concept of breaking a throw into three phases: kuzushi, tsukuri and kake - breaking the balance, preparing the throw and executing the throw. Niall, one of the joys I get from teaching Aikido is observing how the perceptions of my keener students change as time passes. They often tell me about Aikido youtube clips they have been watching and about how impressed they were. I always say, you can't see Aikido you feel it. Who they watch changes and I am pleased and impressed with the changes. Billy Hi Billy - thanks for that! Sorry if some of the Japanese isn't clear. Mostly I put the meanings beside the phrase but

Then the whole process just repeats again. Anyone know what the problem could be? I've been at it for nearly 6 hours and haven't had any luck getting it working. Serial output on pastebin (http://pastebin.com/dbm1J5Vw) Cheers, Joe All, does someone have a working rpc.rquotad in use on an OpenSSI NFS server? I tried it a bit earlier, and it seems that rpc.rquotad binds to the NFS server node IP, not the CVIP, making it unusable. I haven't had a chance to look at the code yet, but maybe I'll get a few minutes tonight to do so. Cheers, Ivan. We're using VerizonWireless CradlePoints, Fortigate 80C firewalls, and Digi CM32's for our OOB solution. There were a few times when VerizonWireless went down, but at those times we did not have the emergency need to be on the OOB network. It's a simple setup and not too costly. We got the CM32s on eBay for $50/ea, not too bad. We also have one site with a 2500 and octal cables, which is rock solid. Lately I've been getting a lot of SPAM for 3rd party OOB management solutions. So there seem to be plenty of alternatives to a good OOB setup.

of authorized websites they can visit. This list is a launching point to various other domains or vhosts. In general, would Django be a good solution for creating this? What I see is good is the way Django's auth can be pluggable (simple user database, to LDAP). Another pro is the built-in admin for managing/creating new user accounts. Are there other pros for using Django? Are there cons? Thanks, Rob Hi, If you can also format the condition file as a csv file similar to the main file, then you can join the two dataframes and select only required columns. Best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Sincères salutations M. Lohith Samaga I am running Asterisk on our LAN with Cisco IP phones and softphone clients, SJPhone and Firefly. Everything on our LAN works fine and the quality is good. We have recently registered other callers not on our LAN who are using SJPhone and Firefly as well. The audio quality is fine, but I consistently hear a buzzing sound in the background. We have experimented with the line in and microphone volume settings. Turning it down helped some, however the background buzzing is still there. I've experimented with both softphone clients, different codecs and protocols (SIP and IAX2). The buzzing does go away when he mutes his SJPhone client. I'm thinking it might be a bad sound card or a bad headset connections. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! I believe that would be OK, but we'd need to back it up with what people say. A visitor to the space could easily be misled into thinking it's non-optional. I don't think we'd want to get a club licence - we'd then need to take various precautions, including limiting age. Mark I have an existing Apache setup (2.0.59 on Solaris 8 x86) that I am trying to install Subversion on. The main server is running as user nobody, group nogroup, and is started via init.d at bootup. I don't want to create local (filesystem) permissions for the subversion repository as nobody/nogroup so I need to be able to run the virtual host as the user and group the subversion repository is owned by. Is there any way to do this? I looked through the configuration and can't find anything. suexec isn't installed, and doesn't appear to be the right option as Subversion runs through the DAV module, not SSI or CGI. Or do I need to create a separate config, have it listen on a different port with a different user/group at bootup start another instance of httpd using the new config file?

with doing the job. (Just to be clear, I'm not making a commentary on the death sentence right now, that's an entirely different topic for discussion somewhere else!) By the way, I'm just throwing it out there right now, this would be a fantastic film plot... a dystopian future where people are transported around by this method, and people are killed and reproduced on a day-day basis.... then one day people start to question the ethics of it, and eventually it becomes worse and a rebellion rises up against the people killing the "leftovers"... In case anyone thinks I'm going too far on a tangent, that film plot right there was a showerthought! Hello, I am but a measly white belt. Been doing BJJ for a year and a half, maybe a bit more(tho at very low rate, x2 a week only). Been starting to go 3-4 times a week now(if work allows). What I noticed is when I roll with weaker partners I tend to go alot slower/methodical. Is it alright or I should always go all out? When Im rolling with stronger ppl I try my best, but when Im fight newer guys I like to go a bit easier, sometimes even let me finnish off or overall to play around with stuff that I am not good at. Is this a bad habbit? Tornado is basically useless in many situations and useful in limited situations. If a balance change is needed, it should be on the buff side. People should use 2v2 as a base to criticize a card. I know the frustration when two teams that have executioners and tornado or just tornado matched together. Earlier Resident Evil releases, **especially** Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (title says it all) Dying Light is massive, can be overly intensive though.

Thanks Ex. one nav and modify it based on resolution or 3 navs big, med, and small.. and just hide them based on resolution A: It's better to have one element and modify the style via media queries unless your content is so drastically different that having one element becomes kludgy. In which case, maybe you need to ask yourself why your mobile content is so very different than your desktop. I'd suggest starting here: http://alistapart.com/article/responsive-web-design/ Q: better way to improve my code without many for loops I'm trying to optimize my code. I have an array of JSON objects and I need to loop through the objects and see if they contain several words and keep track of the JSON objects if the contain all the worlds, not just one but all of them. I don't want to pass to the function an array of worlds because I feel I will have to add another for loop.Right now, my code goes through every input field and if it's not empty call the function and pass the world in the input field. My code works fine if I just check one word, but I need to check more than one and keep track of the objects that contain all the worlds My code: workOrdersArray it's a global array. function searchWO (workOrdersArray) { var filteredWO = []; for (var i=0; i < workOrdersArray.length; i++) { for (var prop in workOrdersArray[i]) { if (myArray[i][prop] == nameKey) { filteredWO.push(workOrdersArray[i]); } } } } Example: If one input field has the world "Hello" and another input field says "Bye" var array = [ { "x":"Bye","y":"Bye","z":"Hello"}, { "x":"Bye","y":"Bye","z":"Hi"}, { "x":"Bye","y":"Hello","z":"Hi"}, ]; I will store the JSON object inside of the array in an separate array. So the new array will have the obj1 and obj3 A: I don't think your array is a valid JavaScript array, but if your array is of the form like var array = [ { "x":"Bye","y":"Bye","z":"Hello"}, { "x":"Bye","y":"Bye","z":"Hi"}, { "x":"Bye","y":"Hello","z":"Hi"}, ]; Then you may try this in ES6+: var array = [ { "x":"Bye","y":"Bye","z":"Hello"}, { "x":"Bye","y":"Bye","z":"Hi"}, { "x":"Bye","y":"Hello","z":"Hi"}, ]; var keyName = ["Hello", "Bye"]; function searchWO (nameKey, myArray) { for(var key of nameKey){ myArray = myArray.filter(obj => JSON.stringify(obj).indexOf('"' + key + '"') != -1); } return myArray; } // Loop Haters Gonna Hate function searchWO2 (nameKey, myArray) { return nameKey.reduce((ans, key) => ans.filter(obj => JSON.stringify(obj).indexOf('"' + key + '"') != -1) , myArray); } console.log(searchWO(keyName, array.slice())); console.log(searchWO2(keyName, array.slice())); The .slice() is just a shallow copy as I don't want to modify the source array, you may omit

Trump, and the drilling of oil on public lands to hold steady or drop, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Tuesday. The results could foretell stronger-than-expected public opposition to Trump's plans to boost energy development by slashing environmental regulations, an agenda shared by some of his top Cabinet picks slated for Senate confirmation hearings later this week. Trump takes office on Friday. Some 39 percent of Americans would like to see the EPA, the nation's top environmental regulator, "strengthened or expanded," while another 22 percent hope for it to "remain the same," according to the poll. Just 19 percent said they would like to see the agency "weakened or eliminated" and the rest said they "don't know." Among Republicans, 47 percent wish for the EPA either to "remain the same" or be "strengthened or expanded," while 35 percent want it "weakened or eliminated." The online poll of 9,935 people was conducted Dec. 16 to Jan. 12 and has a credibility interval, a measure of accuracy, of 1.1 percentage points. "Trump is a businessman, and that's all he thinks about ... what will make money," said Terry Cox, a 61-year-old resident of Tennessee who voted for the New York real estate mogul in November's election. "But I'm hopeful there's a limit to what he can do when it comes to weakening protections for wildlife and the environment." A Trump transition team official declined to comment. Trump campaigned on a promise to drastically reduce environmental regulations in order to create jobs and pave the way for more oil, gas, and coal development. He has said he would refocus the EPA on its core mission to protect air and water quality. He also accused the agency of using "totalitarian tactics" to enforce its regulations under President Barack Obama, who had made the EPA central to his broader effort to combat global climate change by cutting carbon emissions. According to the Reuters/Ipsos poll, just over 60 percent of Americans think it would be wrong to weaken wildlife protections and air and water regulations to bolster the energy industry, while they were nearly evenly split on whether carbon emissions should be softened to help the industry. The poll also showed that 39 percent of Americans want to see a decrease in coal mining and oil drilling on federal lands in the coming years, while 23 percent hope for it to stay the same. Just 22 percent said they wanted to see an increase, and the rest said they do not know. The government holds title to about 500 million acres of land across the country, including national parks and forests, wildlife refuges and tribal territories, overlaying billions of barrels of oil and vast quantities of natural gas, coal, and uranium. Trump has promised to boost industry access to these reserves. Trump nominated Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, a climate change skeptic who has repeatedly sued the EPA over its regulations, to head the agency. Pruitt is scheduled for Senate hearings on Wednesday, where lawmakers are expected to ask him about his ties to the energy

were so stereotypical that I expected someone to throw a hat, or start twirling their mustache, or pat their fluffy white Persian cat. The attraction between Chris and Jason can only be described as instant love, and I just don't feel the chemistry between them not matter how much they both talk about it. I thought Jason's trauma was more him reacting poorly to something that was truly his fault. It felt like a childish tantrum, and his inability to control his temper, and reactions only added to this impression. I don't think the child added anything to the story except she gave Chris something to fixate on. I don't understand why Chris would chose to adopt a child if he was in such a bad relationship with someone he truly did not love. The story's main villain was easy to spot, the foreshadowing was truly so heavy it practically beat the reader over the head. It frustrated me that Chris was unable to see or question any of the things that were so evident to the reader. I never found myself becoming fully invested in the characters, or their plight. It bored me, but wasn't terrible until Jason spoke unforgivable words to Chris in the heat of anger after Chris tries to run after their first sexual encounter. I don't care how mad he was, what he said to Chris crossed a major line, and there was no apology, no explanation, and Chris even blames himself later in the story. I lost my respect for both of them at the moment, and nothing that followed won me back. The product is very comforting and soft for the ears. A good and value for money replacement for my old ear piece. I wasn't expecting this camera to be so small, but its smaller than my own phone. Its neat and pictures are okay for the price of the camera. It only holds THREE pictures without a sim card which I am upset about cause I didn't get a sim card right away. So best to purchase one with it or it would be a waste. I could not give this out of print book to my friend because the print size was too small. I returned this item and will be looking for a better edition of it. We bought this mattress because if was much cheaper than the mattresses we had purchased for the main bedrooms. This was to be used in the guest bedroom only. It is the most comfortable bed in the house and provides a much better night's sleep than the name brand ones with a higher price point. Exactly what I was looking for. Absolutely perfect in size and beautiful designs. Would have been great if I would have received the actual salt and pepper shakers as listed in the product description. The best controller yet designed. By anyone. For $12, it's a good desktop mic. The button is very nice, you can easily mute yourself. Also it blinks whenever an application is taking the feedback. My son loves this shirt. He wore it his

crap after being crushed over and over again. I'm not able to learn, so I just want to quit. Well, I'm in no hurry to switch, battery still gives me about 4 days of phone usage (It's amazing after 9 years!). I'm finishing my degree in IT this year and I would like to finally develop something marketable and/or free :) But it would be nice to know what I'm getting into. I don't want to develop for dead platform and WP will die slowly if they don't change their attitude. :/ I've been playing Minecraft for almost 2 years now and I first tried Terraria yesterday. I was quite surprised that they have 16 types of mineral resources ([ores](http://wiki.terrariaonline.com/Ore) and [gems](http://wiki.terrariaonline.com/Gem)) while MINEcraft has only 6 ([ores and gems](http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Ore)). As a consequence of that, [Terraria](http://wiki.terrariaonline.com/List_of_items) has also more craftable items than [MineCRAFT](http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Data_values). This was a bit disappointing to me because I think Minecraft is awesome, but I've realized this game is not going anywhere, we should have more ores, gems, plants, flowers, mobs and each one of them should be related to specific biomes (just and example). I don't know, do you guys feel this way too? What do you expect for the future of Minecraft? Check out the Lenovo Thinkpad T480, T480s or an X1 Carbon (you'll only get the 5th gen X1 at that price tho) So far I've heard those ones are excellent. They can be customized to order and should last years. If you get the T480 it has 2 batteries, one external and one internal. If she doesn't mind you could purchase the 72 watt hour battery and have over 20 hours of battery. Looks like an amazing machine. DO NOT GET ANY NEW THINKPAD WITH THE TN 768 HD DISPLAY. Only get the FHD 1080p screen and above. That said: Are you positive she would be fine without a Macbook? Edit: Also check out [Acer Swift 3](https://www.amazon.com/Acer-Swift-i5-8250U-Windows-SF315-51-518S/dp/B0746NQYFF/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1521177759&amp;sr=1-3&amp;keywords=acer+swift+3) I'm in Wiltshire, England, and I tend to buy Missha from Amazon.

The NHS REQUIRES immigrants to work because most native Brits do not want to work in the NHS. Why? Because most of the front line jobs are poorly paid and SO thankless, I actually have trouble putting it into words. The sense of entitlement that some native Brits have when dealing with the NHS is truly breathtaking to behold; and they are VERY aware of how badly they behave while in hospital some of the time. Seeming to think that it is some kind of healthcare hotel rather than a very busy clinical environment (hint: nurses are there to care for patients, not to be your skivvy.) They see how they treat staff and think to themselves "do I really want to be treated the way I treat these poor saps?" And the answer is of course "no."

make him also implement a class from EvaluatedIndividual. Individual is formed by value and a both evaluation and wasEvaluated. At first wasEvaluated was false, so any attempt to gather value throws up an Exception. I don't particulary like this, but I am not sure why. How'd you approach this? This is probably a pretty common pattern, but I am afraid I don't know any GoF pattern that matches this scenario :( Thanks A: I'm all for simple; I'd just have one class here. In C# maybe use Nullable<T>: double? Score {get;set;} In Java (which obviously lacks Nullable<T>), maybe just expose the score along with an isEvaluated flag (or a count of the number of exams evaluated) - if this is false (or 0) you just ignore the score.

I have!! I finally decided to check out drop-in at my local rink. Not to skate as i dont have any gear; just to see what was going on. Freaking dead. One guy showed up. I knew we weren't exactly a hockey town but geez. It also doesn't help that it was lunchtime when they have it scheduled. Kind of lame. Anyway, i wanted to check out some drop-in and it wasn't happening here. Just wondering how the hockey scene is there. I'm willing to drive the hour or so to check it out. Children don't seem to, I think some adults are like them in a way. They never realise the truth that Life isn't amazing, that its a struggle and it's beauty only comes from a moment so awesome that if you held that experience indefinitely you would want to experience it forever. Some people just do not appreciate that. I think depressed people are the most perceptive. This makes sense, as I certainly do feel myself having a lower tolerance toward ad-breaks when viewing online, and I'm sure they would have done a bunch of research to back this up. Still, we've seen online ad-breaks increase more and more over the last several years, and people seem (grudgingly) ok with it. It's not like anyone really likes long breaks on live TV, but we put up with it there, too. Plus, wouldn't a lot of this reasoning on the networks' behalf rely too heavily on peoples' honesty? They're banking that viewers will wait over a week to be caught up on their shows just to avoid a few minutes of ads, or rearrange their schedules to be able to watch a show live and maximize their ad-viewing. With this model, wouldn't getting a DVR to be able to skip commercials or taking a trip to a piracy website to avoid them altogether be much more incentivized? I don't mean to sound too opinion-y, but I'm just honestly trying to understand how a business model like this can be profitable for the networks if it encourages viewers to find ways to subvert their main source of income. Maybe my misunderstanding comes from the answer is not being rooted in logic at all and this dilemma just points to how broken the old system has become by the Internet and new technology. edit: Less repetitive wording The point of removing the headphone jack was to move everything to wireless. If you don’t force people, they will never change. The point of only having USB C on the macbooks is again, to force people to move to a better standard where you plug a single cable into your device and it just works. No dongles needed and no need to worry about your device not having the right port for the cable. Apples headphone dongle only costs $9 and you get a free one with the iPhone.

God that thought makes him feel awful too. Could he even explain it? Why storms scared him so much? He never learned how to deal with them. That was a big part of it._ _ __“My parent weren’t around a lot,” he said against hot metal. The words felt secretive and maybe dirty? He felt like he didn’t want Genos to know that part of him, but at the same time, he did. He wanted to tell Genos everything. “I was an only child. So storms, freak me out.”_ _ __He wasn’t expecting a hand on his back, and he made a noise of pleasure because the heavy weight was reassuring and so hot. He shifted against Genos then, realizing that he was resting his full wait against him. It was a good think Genos didn’t need to breathe the same way a human did, or else he’d be crushing him._ _ __“I’m sorry I’m being so weird right now. You’re probably super uncomfortable—“_ _ __“No teacher. If I can help, I want to—“_ _ __“You don’t have to say that.” He wanted to shout it in Genos’s face. He wanted Genos to shout at him and disagree with him. There wasn’t any possible way that he could mean those words. He was an average, bald guy, who was afraid of thunderstorms._ _ __“But it’s the truth.” The way he said it made Saitama believe him. It was funny, how good Genos was at that. “Storms may be the one thing I can protect _you_ from. So let me.” _ _ __Genos thought he protected him? That was right, in a sense. He always stepped in when it got to be too much for Genos. Did he make Genos feel safe? That was a thought that made his stomach flip and his heart pound.No one ever said that to him, was close enough to say that to him, thought he was worth saying that to him. It made his face go red too, because he wanted to protect _Genos_. _ _ __“Are you for real?” he asked. Their faces are very close, and Saitama is terrified by the fact that _wow I really want to kiss him right now_. _ _ __“I think so,” he answered, eyes wandering down. Down where?

Pirates pitcher, said it's unfair to expect a pitcher to just lob a meatball over the plate.

Throwing inside in baseball is just part of the game. And second, as I stated above, I had no issue with throwing back at McCutchen. However, the issue was that it was such a cowardly way to do it. If they wanted to hit him, hit him at the beginning of the game. Don't wait until a game is already decided "to make a stand". Thats cowardly and pathetic, no matter how you spin it.

than Sixtus IV., for he not only repaired the broken fortunes of the Medici but eclipsed his father as a patron of art, making the erection of monumental buildings and the collection of objects of art a mania among all men of wealth and culture. Cardinal Giulio (afterwards Clement VII.) in the Villa Madama, and Cardinal Ferdinando in the Villa Medici sustained the family tradition, but Cardinal Alexander Farnese (Pope Paul III.) outrivalled them both, by filling the Farnese palace with the most valuable collections ever amassed by a private individual.[1] Immediately succeeding Alexander Farnese Julius III. built the noble Villa di Papa Giulio, and Pius IV. the charming Villa Pia; but nepotism did not scandalously reassert itself until the last quarter of the century, when the immense Villa Aldobrandini was erected by a nephew of Clement VIII. Pope Paul V. in his turn bestowed more than a million dollars upon his Borghese nephews, to one of whom, Cardinal Scipione, we owe the delightful Villa Borghese, just outside the Porta del Popolo. Early in the next century the evil attained greater proportions. Olimpia Pamphili, whose name and memory are perpetuated in the villa built by her son, received from Pope Innocent X. more than two millions. But Innocent seems to have a fair claim to his name when compared with his immediate predecessor Urban VIII. who conferred upon his nephews, the brothers Barberini, sums amounting to one hundred and five millions! An architecture of pompous ostentation and riotous overloading of ornament, the Baroque, now took the place of the classical beauty of the Renaissance and art degraded became the slave of wealth, until the great Cardinal Albani erected his villa to serve as her temple. We are ready to expect great results in the villas and palaces of the millionaires of the earlier half of the sixteenth century when we reflect that they were executed by Bramante, Peruzzi, San Gallo, Michael Angelo, and Raphael with a host of lesser men who would have been great in any other age, and that the ruins of imperial Rome furnished them with models for their designs and an inexhaustible quarry of statues, columns, mosaics, and other materials. The point of view of the present volume is the life rather than the art of these villas, but it is not possible to ignore the stimulus which the daily discovery of the masterpieces of ancient art afforded to the artists of the day, and the connoisseurship imposed upon the rivalling patrons and collectors. In the chapters entitled: "The Finding of Apollo" and "The Lure of Old Rome" I have striven to depict the influence of these discoveries upon such sensitive souls as those of Raphael and Ligorio, and the gradual education of the financier Chigi and Cardinal Ippolito d'Este in the refinements of dilettantism. But the Fornarina left a more potent impression on Raphael's art than the Apollo Belvedere, and her memory and that of Imperia still haunt the villa of the Farnesina indissolubly united with that of the master of art and the master of revels.

or there that was actually one place it was going to be too hot so we're holding off on that one but last part of the pro tip is when you're doing your boxes when you're shipping multiple snakes out at a time what I like to do is take the shipping label that I usually print out on a full page and then I'll take all those labels and lay them out in front of the boxes and I will write on that label the ID which includes the sex of the snake so I can quadruple or quintuple sextuple check it before it actually goes into the shipping box as well as the morph so the last thing I do is take that snake make sure it's the right one put it in there and it's nice you know warm fluffy package thing that I got here a little pillow fluff and a nice bag and some paper towels to soak up any pee that might happen put them on outside the bag and then make sure I'm not sending the wrong snake to the wrong person and getting the right snake to the right person just a little Pro tip that I thought you guys would appreciate because I appreciate little tiny Pro tips like that myself so I thrive on okay to the morph Market thing so I mentioned that I would do an update on this in the video it was the sharing of clutch 2301 or 2302 one of those clutch videos I said that I was going to be doing this for the first time with morph market and I would give you an update on how it was going so the feature that I'm talking about the the new thing with morph Market is the ability to list app animals as pre-established but have them for sale with the understanding that if the animal is pre-established it's available to purchase but not quite ready to go yet needs to be established it needs to have meals it needs to maybe have even have its first shed and things like that and isn't ready to be shipped so the upside that I've seen to this is that you can get your animals on the market sooner and then you can have all those things get taken care of and established beforehand and you're not waiting to find customers until they've already had all the meals and they're ready to ship out that day which is what I used to do in the past and now you can have people putting claims on those animals and paying for those animals which you know when I take a payment for an animal it's not going out yet I never take the money from the business account and put it into I have a separate account for money that's coming from animals until those animals get to the people before it moves over from that account to the main account I think that's a smart thing that's what

a few minutes Nick realized that they were heading towards the house he was staying with his mum and sister. “N-No, not the house. Mum…mum will _kill_ me.”, he mumbled under his breath, just enough to let Troy understand him. “Not my problem.” Troy replied cold and continued to walk towards the house. “Wait.”, Nick stopped them. “Man look…she hates it when I drink…I don’t…I don’t want to disappoint her.” She would not kill him over a little bit of alcohol, she was used to much worse things, but for the sake of his plan he had to exaggerate a little bit. His mum and sister would only disturb his plan. He needed to be alone with him. Troy looked at him and seemed to be in thoughts. Nick put on his best pleading look and hoped that it would work. “Fine…”, Troy finally agreed and changed the direction. Nick could not bite back a victorious smile. So far, so good. \------------------------- “Damn it, be quiet!” Troy hissed as Nick almost run over a flowerpot near the front door of the Otto’s house. Nick was surprised, that Troy took him to his house and not to some old empty trailer standing around. “Sorry.” Nick slurred and laughed. “Stupid flowerpot!” “Psst! ”, Troy shushed him. “ We don’t want to wake up old Otto, do we?” “Yeah…”, Nick nod his head in agreement. The old Otto would probably not let him stay here over night. So better not wake him up. Troy unlocked the front door and pulled him inside with him. The old wood under their feet squeaked while entering the house. All the lights were out and only the moon flooded the rooms with a faint light. It took Nick a few moments to adjust his eyes to the dark. Troy took him inside the living room next to the kitchen and sat him down on a small sofa. “You can sleep here, but be quiet or I’ll kill you right here and now.” His words seemed serious as always. “Yeah right. I know that you like killing people.” Nick laid down on the sofa and tried to make himself comfortable. Stretching out long and folding his arms under his head. “How many people have you killed in total?” It was dark in the room and he could only see the outlines of Troy standing in front of him and staring down on him. Maybe it was not the smartest idea to provoke him, but it was kind of fun. “What did you just say?” Troy hissed after a few seconds. “I asked, _how **many** people have you killed in total_?” In a blink of an eye he had Troy’s hands on the collar of his shirt. Squeeze tight.  He could feel his trembling hands on his shirt and breath on his face. Their faces were only centimeters away from each other and Troy’s dark eyes were staring down at him. Threatening. Adrenalin started to rush through Nick’s body. The thrill of playing with a predator, ready to eat you alive

is the only fight that could save the sport. Too few analysts consider the what ifs that may arise after this fight happens. If it happens too soon or at all disappoints, it could be the last match some hard core fans of the sport will pay money to see. People outside the sport will watch it, too, so if it's not spectacular it will save nothing. The problem is the fight ends after 12 rounds. What then? What if the fight itself doesn't live up to the hype? What if there are no other fights quite like this to look forward to anymore? How does one fight save boxing then? 2011 will be a year in which Floyd Mayweather, Jr. faces the Las Vegas justice system to account for his actions in 2010. He is a frustrated, egotistical, vastly wealthy punk, and he treats the sport lately like his own personal piggy bank, breaking into it every now and then to get more money. His latest behavior, which crossed the legal line enough to get him charged in the criminal courts, smacks of Mike Tyson's fall from grace. Though Mayweather's misdeeds weren't as vicious as rape, they came close. Mayweather's brush with the law might even be said to be even more despicable than Tyson's considering the allegations of what Mayweather said to his own children. There is also a civil case in the Nevada courts regarding defamatory remarks allegedly made by the Mayweather Camp against Pacquiao and his handlers. Talk of steroids and "power pellets" permeate that case, and the docket is busy in that proceeding. It is a breweing battle between Pacquiao and Mayweather as well as Golden Boy and Top Rank, and it's by no means the only one. These bitter disputes involving lawyers and contracts and testing procedures are complicated. Barring a miracle settlement, 2011 won't see them resolved and ready for promoting a Pacquiao v. Mayweather fight. For now, boxing will have to look for someone else to save the sport, if it really does need to be saved. 2011 should feature it's fair share of great fights without these two legends meeting, and boxing will save itself in the long run. Find Mayweather coverage at Canbet sportsbook and bwin. undefined YOKOSUKA (REUTERS) - Unclaimed urns containing ashes of the dead are piling up by the thousands across Japan, creating storage headaches and reflecting fraying family ties and economic pressures in a rapidly ageing nation. The identities of the dead, cremated at public expense, are usually known. But in most cases, relatives either refuse or don't respond to requests to collect their remains. Burials can be costly and time-consuming, a burden on family members who may hardly know the deceased relative. "When I die, though I have only 150,000 yen (S$1,838), will you cremate me and put me in a pauper's grave? I have no one to collect my remains," said a note left by a man in his 70s in Yokosuka, south of Tokyo, who died in 2015 and whose urn was later buried at

to hold them long-term, or to satisfy local demand. Once that demand is satisfied, I think we will see a drop off as more boxes hit the market. The uncertainty surrounding low supply / exclusivity is advantageous to sellers. You're making $200 right off the bat, which I think is a better tradeoff than holding into uncertainty! I followed a guy on instagram with no intentions of ever seeing him again because my friend thought he was cute and was too shy to follow him since his account is private (so is mine), then he followed me back and I was like whatever, it's instagram, I don't care much. (this occurred a year ago). I went to the bar on thursday night with a friend and that dude was there and recognized me from Instagram. He came up to me and asked me if I was the girl from San Francisco/Bay Area (for the past few months, my instagram pics were mostly of the bay area since my SO lives there, but we ended things officially three weeks ago). And i was in disbelief, not only did he happen to mention the Bay area (feeeel tripppp) he recognized me from instagram zzz. Music is something everyone loves to talk about. It can be hard if you have older tastes in music but I know a lot of college kids who love old jazz or funk even. Broadways shows, any drama or theater kid would love to talk with you about that as well as a lot of other students. Knitting, ya never know I had to use a sewing machine for a school project and through bringing that up I learned a lot of my friends were big into sewing. College can be stressful, but it's also brilliant because it puts you in a place with thousands of other kids who are all equally as lost in life as you are. That universal truth means most everyone is open to new friends, new ideas and new ways of seeing the world. They may become interested in knitting when you show them how awesome it is and you might become interested in who knows what when they show it to you. And if for whatever reason you don't connect with anyone in those 4 years and it was filled with awkward encounters and strange relationships so what you graduate, move away and begin again. It can never be worst than keeping your dorm room shut and meeting no one new. At first I thought it was awesome because you go a teensy bit higher, but the ability to wall jump after a triple jump is too high a price to pay for the extra air.

flat, say a week before sale. A week later after the sale it is flipped back to the country home. Although the flat has only been the main residence for one week, the "'time to sell" rules kick in and the whole period of ownership of the flat acquires tax-free status. Surprisingly easy The country home does lose relief for one week, but this is likely to be insignificant during a long period of ownership. It is difficult to see how a government which constantly calls for a fair and equal tax system can allow this to continue It is possible to flip between any property you own, such as a holiday cottage, but the tax savings are particularly advantageous for those buying and selling property within the three-year window. There are other tax planning approaches that individuals may wish to consider if they have a weekend cottage and have held it for a long period of time. It is surprisingly easy to flip property, although it is critical that election as to your principal private residence are made within the correct time frame. Of course much of the current controversy arises because some MPs are arguably doubly advantaged. Not only have they benefitted from the tax free gains, but the purchase or refurbishment of their London home has been funded by the taxpayer. Nevertheless now that flipping has made the headlines it is difficult to see how a government which constantly calls for a fair and equal tax system can allow this to continue. But let's hope that any changes to the tax law are well thought through. Amending the three year "time to sell" rule would stop the tax breaks that arise from the flipping of second homes. But it would seriously disadvantage those who in the current downturn really do have to get on their bike, and in the current housing market are unable to find a buyer for their home.

the new drive to the btrfs volume (also I'd like to completely zero the new drive first, to weed out bad sectors). In the wiki I read about replace as well as delete/add and figured since I will eventually have to replace all 4 drives one-by-one, I might as well try out different methods and gain insight while doing it. :) So for this first replacement I mounted the volume degraded and ran "btrfs device delete missing /mnt", and that's where it's been stuck for the past ~23 hours. Only later did I figure out that this command will trigger a rebalance, and of course that will take a long time. I'm not entirely sure that this rebalance has a chance to work, as a 3x6 TB raid1 would only have 9 TB of space, which may just be enough (but not by much). I can't currently check how much space is actually used, but it must be at least 8.1 TB (that's how much data is on my main NAS), but probably not much more than that (my main NAS may still have most if not all of the snapshots synched to the backup NAS too, for now). Regarding a few gotchas: I use btrbk to copy and thin snapshots, so there are < 100 snapshots. I might still have quotas active though, because that allows determining the diff size between 2 snapshots. In practice I don't use this often, so will turn it off once things are stable, because I read in other list mails that it makes things slow. I assume I could probably just Ctrl+C that "btrfs device delete missing /mnt", and the balance would continue as usual in the background, but I have not done that yet, as I'd rather consult you guys first (a bit late, I know). Anyway, if you have any tips, I'm glad to read them. For now my plan is to continue waiting what happens. Since it's a just my personal backup NAS, the downtime is not that bad, only that it won't get the usual nightly backups from my main NAS for some time. Losing data and having to start from scratch would just be an inconvenience, but not a disaster, particularly because the backup NAS is at a friend's house and my upstream is only 50 Mbit/s.

and some other wasps have small barbs. Bees with barbed stingers can often sting other insects without harming themselves. Queen honeybees and bees of many other species, including bumblebees and many solitary bees, have smooth stingers and can sting mammals repeatedly." Adolf Hitler was more Chaotic Evil than Lawful. He killed his own best generals, and his regime was better known for its violations of the rule of law than for establishing it. Vader wasn't particularly lawful/honorable either. Gus Fring (Breaking Bad), assassins who have "rules" against killing women/children, and Count Dooku (who always saluted before his duels, never attacked from behind, and never allowed any underlings to interfere in his duels) are better examples of Lawful Evil, IMO. Using the /u/garryjnewman [suggestion format](https://www.reddit.com/r/playrust/comments/5imvgh/meta_how_to_do_constructive_criticism/). ***Problem*** In my experience introducing the game to new players, the Rock tool is a turnoff because 1) It seems strange to hit a tree with a round rock to get wood and 2) The new player has to spend a long time harvesting material with this crappy tool before they are familiar with the concept of crafting (before they even know what they are harvesting wood/stone for). As is, the very first thing a new player has to do is grind, which is not very sexy. ***Proposed Solution*** The Rock should be craftable, at no additional expense (other than 1 Rock), into either an [Oldowan chipped hand axe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldowan#/media/File:Oldowan_tradition_chopper.jpg) or a hand "pounder". The chipped rock is better at gathering wood, the pounder better at gathering stone. ***Intended Result*** By giving a brand new player the opportunity to craft something as their first act in the game, you familiarize them with the concept of crafting *before* they start gathering resources. That way, they understand the purpose of gathering resources before they have to start grinding. It would also look a lot nicer in-game to gather resources with a real stone tone. ***Possible Problems*** This would potentially clutter the crafting menu with an item that is only useful during one very specific phase in the game. Making the game fun (note: I said "fun", not "easy"!) to get started in is important, but perhaps not worth adding a whole new tier of items. Controversial, but I'm not a big fan of Beethoven's 9th at all, and not just because I'm a horn player who's had to prepare the 4th horn solo... His 3rd and 7th are my favourites, I'd put 9th as my least fave. It just seems a bit of a drag to me, unlike say Mahler 7 which is bloody long but can hold my attention the whole way through. Can I add a disadvantage for consideration? I've found on hanging belays (where I would usually use shorter/looped slings to attach yourself to the anchor for ease of access, it can be difficult if using an extended rappel to "test weight" the system before unclipping your personal tethers. This occurs because now the distance from you to the rappel device may be close to or even slightly longer than a single length sling. Thoughts? Ways to get around this

During the winter months I occupied that time listening to Jack Johnson. Recently I have filled that time with either talking to friends or making a mental note of everything I need to accomplish. On Tuesday my walk was definitely one of the best. About 1/2 way through my walk home, I looked to the right and saw these two cute little japanese girls playing with a rabbit. The girls saw me and smiled and I heard a little konnichiwa from the smaller of the two. I smile back, said both konnichiwa and hello and then continued on my walk. After about 10 feet, I heard some steps behind me and a very quiet hello. I turned around to see the smaller of the two standing right behind me. I took off my sunglasses and kneeled down in order to be more at her level since approaching a foreigner can be quite a daunting task. She asked me my name and then I asked hers. Then I asked her how old she was. She responded she was 5 and immediately asked me my age. During this brief conversation the older of the two made her way to me carrying the small rabbit. I then had the name and age conversation with her as well as learned that their bunny is one years old and named Lucky. I definitely laughed a little and told them how impressed I was that their rabbit has an english name.

that not all visas are equal, but I think it's naïve to think that processing times won't increase with more visas. Even if the new "Registered Provisional Temporary status" applications are bottom of the barrel in terms of priority, it still ups the workload significantly. Despite what you may say, we were advised to pursue the K-1 visa because the DHS and CIS do **not** like people coming in and marrying a US citizen without a pre-approved visa. Mostly, the reason is because if you are going to be newlyweds, all happy and glowing, how likely are you to get on a plane back to your home country after 90 days? It's a risk they take, letting you through. As I was at the point of entry, in the waiting room, the guy before me was trying to do just that and was informed that he was being put on the next flight back to Blighty. EDIT: as for my "feelings about other immigrants," I will reinforce what I originally said - in principal, there should definitely be a path to citizenship for the millions of illegal immigrants in this country, but the money would be better spent on more processing facilities and manpower than a bigger fence on the border which will do nothing. Just my opinion. I've always had the idea of wanting to try out a post apocalyptic style roleplay... But never really finding anyone to play it out with me... Here are a few scenarios I had in mind, but if you've got some of your own, feel free to share them too !!! Scenario 1: The traditional virus outbreak.... A mysterious virus breaks out across the country, city after city is quarantined to try and contain this so called "act of God". The virus appears to turn the ones infected into "zombie" like creatures, driven by only one primal instinct, too feed. Some infected have mutated in different ways, some are slow and lethargic, others are quick and a lot more agile. Either way, a good shot to the head does the trick every time. Scenario 2: A fallout style future. After the nukes were dropped in during the Cold War. Humanity did it's best to keep everyone alive in giant vaults underground. Each vault built for a slightest different purpose. A few hundred years pass and we're now in the year 2102, civilisations have been underground for years now, well so we thought.... What horrors now roam the planet as you take your first steps out of the vault and into the barren wastes. Scenario 3: Mother Nature knows best. The worlds population has been increasing on a yearly basis with people living longer and having more children, usually they say Mother Nature has it's way of taming the population by causing natural disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes. But what happens if she takes it too far ?? What if nature takes back what it's owned for billions of years. Cities being turned into literal suburban jungles, all sources of man made power destroyed, each continent

are relevant to form layout: Home. This is where you can find the basic text editing tools that you would find in a word processor. The functionality available on the Home tab is for controlling fonts—size, color, and so forth. These tools are fairly standard and work just as in the other Office products. Insert. This is where you can find the prebuilt table styles. These tables can give your forms a consistent and professional layout. Page Design. This is where you can find InfoPath’s predefined page layouts and color themes to quickly give your form a professional look and feel. The color themes are the same ones that are in SharePoint, so it’s easy to make your forms blend in nicely on a SharePoint site. Also, on the Page Design tab, you can work with Views and add headers/footers if necessary. Layout. The tools on this tab (also known as the Table Tools tab) are used for modifying properties of the tables in your forms. Tables are the primary structural tool for organizing controls, labels, and images in your forms. This is also the location where you can use the Table Drawing tool if you don’t want to use any of the provided table styles. There are multiple approaches to building InfoPath forms. The one that is most common is to simply begin with one of the built-in page layouts on the Page Design tab of the ribbon, add some tables and a color theme, and then begin adding data controls in order to complete the form’s functional requirements. Along the way of the InfoPath form design process, there are many best practices. A few of the key ones will be highlighted in the next section as we dissect a completed form. If you require a comprehensive tutorial on InfoPath design, Microsoft Press and other publishers have entire books dedicated solely to InfoPath. Walkthrough of the sample Site Request form To illustrate the process of designing an InfoPath form, we will walk through the steps to create a sample Records Management Site Request form. This form uses several common InfoPath capabilities that are used when designing enterprise forms that are hosted on SharePoint. The purpose of this form is for employees of the Blue Yonder Airlines company to be able to submit a form to request that a SharePoint Records Management site be provisioned for them. The form itself is not complex; it really is just gathering some basic information via a series of questions. However, the way in which the form is designed takes advantage of InfoPath’s ability to provide business logic, rules, and conditional formatting—all without writing any code. The form is built in a wizard-like approach that walks the user through a series of screens. The functionality in InfoPath that allows this to happen is provided by views. After gathering the information from the user, the final screen of the form gives the user a summary of his or her answers. INSIDE OUT Views Your forms often will have too many controls to fit cleanly on a single

to the primary key of previous table in mySQL Currently I have one table in a mySQL Database that I want to connect to another table I need to create. The second table is just going to have 2 columns, the member_id and product column. There is to be many entries in the product column for the same member_ID and the product column is to be a foreign key for another table. Here is the SQL code I used to create the initial Login table: 'CREATE TABLE `members`( `member_id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `firstname` varchar(100) DEFAULT NULL, `lastname` varchar(100) DEFAULT NULL, `login` varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT \'\', `passwd` varchar(32) NOT NULL DEFAULT \'\', PRIMARY KEY (`member_id`)) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=8 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8' If someone could show me how to create the second table to connect to member_id that would be great. A: The MyISAM storage engine does not support foreign keys. If You want to ensure data integrity by using foreign keys You need to use another storage engine eg. InnoDB Using MyISAM You can't define a foreign key but You can still define the tables as following: http://sqlfiddle.com/#!2/4cb9c/1/0 Please note that it is important to create the indexes to ensure decent performance for joins. If You want to use InnoDB and foreign keys then the explicit index creation is not needed as adding a foreign key creates an implicit index. Q: Relationship between import, require and /// <reference I am new to TypeScript. Here's a snippet: /// <reference path="typings/node/node.d.ts" /> const fs = require('fs'), spawn = require('child_process').spawn, filename = process.argv[2]; Why is the /// line required in this case? I thought that it would only be required with an import. On the other hand, here's another snippet: /// <reference path="typings/tsd.d.ts" /> import fs = require('fs'); import should = require('should'); var parse = require('csv-parse'); In this case, 'csv-parse' does not have a tsd file installed (in typings/) nor listed in tsd.json and yet that line does not give an error? A: Why is the /// line required in this case? Don't recomment using reference comments anymore. These were before there was something like tsconfig.json : https://github.com/TypeStrong/atom-typescript/blob/master/docs/tsconfig.md These were to tell the IDE which other files need to be a part of the compilation context. 'csv-parse' does not have a tsd file installed (in typings/) nor listed in tsd.json and yet that line does not give an error? This is because you are using var/require in var parse = require('csv-parse'); instead of import/require. If you use import/require you will get an error. require is a function defined in node.d.ts which means var/require is allowed but not typechecked the same way as import/require.

where to find the study) This suggests that homosexuality is a built in safeguard against overpopulation, or something along those lines. I feel it necessary to point out that they state there is a “link.” Furthermore, there is some seemingly legitimate science that the “GAPS” diet has helped with autism symptoms; it’s basically hardcore paleo. Let me be clear, I would never excuse PETA’s attempt at scare tactics especially in terms of exploiting ASD. I just think it’s better to be mad at them for their exploitation and misrepresentation. There seems to be a potentially valid reason to consider the relationship between dairy and autism. But, relationship doesn’t mean cause. Also, I am on mobile and can’t link to any articles right now. Sorry. Has anyone brought in a portable audio recorder to EDC before? Or any electronic music festival for that matter? I was thinking the Zoom H1: https://www.amazon.com/Zoom-Handy-Portable-Digital-Recorder/dp/B003QKBVYK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1465865242&amp;sr=8-2&amp;keywords=zoom+h1 I wanted to clip it to the outside of my backpack and just let it run all night, each night. That way I'd have recordings of my favorite sets (even if subar quality), and can shazam tons of new/unknown material afterward, rather than forget it forever. And I wouldn't have to take videos on my phone for the same effect. I don't believe this classifies as professional recording equipment, but I could be wrong. Has anyone used something like this?

be, one who could find fault with the sunniest of days, Parthy was practically silent. All she could think of was how close he was standing, and what it might be like if he wrapped his arm around her. A voice immediately sprung up in her head, telling her it wasn’t right to think such things, but for the first time in her life she didn’t hear it. When Andy reached for her hand, he was pleasantly surprised to find that she didn’t pull away. Her palm was rough and callused from years of work, just like his own, and it endeared her to him even more. They stood like that for several minutes, Parthy trying to control the fear that was rising within her. Not fear of him or what he might do, for despite his faults, he’d always stayed a gentleman, but fear of herself. Fear of the feelings she had no idea she could experience, ones that were threatening to act in ways most unbecoming of a lady. When he removed his hand from hers and moved it to the small of her back, she turned to face him with no guidance needed. Her mouth was set in a thin line, but her eyes betrayed her anticipation, and a shiver went down her spine. His touch was so gentle, so unlike what she would have imagined from him, and she offered no hesitation as he pressed a kiss to her lips, soft at first. Surprising them both, Parthenia was the one to deepen the kiss. Years of repressed longing had built up and now exploded, as her body let her know just what she had missed all her life. Her arm went around his waist, and she returned the embrace happily before sense took over. But as though she’d been struck by lightning, she pulled back, horror replacing the bliss that had settled over her face. Not uttering another word, she ran for the house and into her room, closing the door and gasping with shame. How could she have allowed him to kiss her? What did that make her? Parthy could still see him outside, kicking at sand, wondering where he’d gone wrong. Her cheeks flushed red again, and despite herself she put a hand to her lips, as though she could still feel the kiss lingering. Parthenia Ann said twice her normal amount of prayers and got into bed. When she woke the next morning she made breakfast and sent her father out to his boat. When Andy went to join him she put a lunch pail in his hand and placed a kiss on his cheek, before retreating into the house with a smile, leaving him with his mouth wide open in shock.

administrative districts (referred to as LGA). Border areas are not consistently demarcated, and administrative taxation, transport, and environmental arrangements reflect a functional interdependence between states Ogun and Lagos. Although Nigeria presents challenges for evaluating disease surveillance systems, it also offers strategic advantages for the study of misreporting such as parallel, independent official infectious disease reporting systems, multiple sources of TB diagnostic and treatment data, and rigorous recent censuses of the sprawling private sector [12]. The study design was tailored to leverage available data sources and triangulates to improve precision. Specifically, we started from or expanded the WHO inventory study recommendations: (1) retrospective digitalization of paper-based records to create electronic case-based records; (2) use of high-specificity on-site verification procedures to reduce data entry and respondent burden; (3) estimation of the volume of private sector provision of clinical versus bacteriological TB diagnosis using direct and indirect methods; (4) use of buffer zone sensitivity analysis to estimate misreporting in an area without well-defined, closed geographical boundaries; (5) estimation of misreporting between administrative levels of the notification system; and (6) study of the underlying rationales and solutions to suboptimal notification behaviors in addition to its quantification. Study Design The WHO recommends that inventory study designs in settings without case-based electronic surveillance employ prospective designs in a representative sample of diagnostic sites [4]; however, the addition of data collection systems with standardized case definitions and capacity building required to measure surveillance behavior can introduce bias because these tend to improve surveillance behavior and reporting [13]. Retrospective designs are only recommended in settings with multiple preexisting electronic case-based data sets with standardized case definitions across all providers, an improbable scenario [11]. Therefore, we attempted a hybrid design, quality-assured digitalization of paper-based notifications, and high-specificity verification of patient source documents to avoid full transcription of source documents in the field. The study triangulated TB case-based data derived from 6 sources instead of 3 ( Figure 2). Sampling The sampling frames were derived from 5 facility databases: Health Facility Monitoring and Accreditation Agency (HEFAMAA), Millennium Development Goals, Strengthening Health Outcomes through the Private Sector, the State TB program's list of DOTS providers, and the Pick'N'Pack drug management system records [12,14]. We used 2 lists of DOTS centers maintained by the State TB program to create the sampling frame of the engaged DOTS facilities; this included 217 public engaged facilities and 98 private providers involved in the public-private mix (PPM) scheme. For the purposes of the study, we considered a public facility engaged if it was listed on the official TB program DOTS facility list or if it was found in the list of facilities in the TB drug commodity management system (Pick'N'Pack) [15]. We aimed to include a census of all engaged facilities; 3 sites reported that they had been engaged in 2016, but these were still classified according to their 2015 engagement status. Although the PPM program in Lagos is one of the most established and well studied in Nigeria, the actual size of the official engaged PPM program in Lagos is modest, involving 96 private HFs or less

This is how what I have now: As tools a I just have the basics, when i search for freewheel remover I see hundreds of different things like this: ... How can I know what I need?

With that knowledge you should be able to to figure out what type of replacement freewheel/spocket you need (or two, as you have a flip-flop hub). Update: Also see the Sheldon Brown page on Freewheels. Depending on what the freewheel thread turns out to be, you should be able to get a replacement freewheel that has a more standard lockring. You might consider creating a 'bodged' tool to get the current freewheel off. You might be able to 'drift' the lockring loose by tapping the ring around with an old screwdriver and hammer.

Either pass it in from the view, or use the make_list filter on a string: {% for x in "123"|make_list %} Q: IF vs IIF and performance difference? I was wondering what is the difference between the IF statement vs the IIF() function in Tableau. And then I found this page, which explained the syntax difference. Difference between iif and if But someone (over a seminar) also told me that IIF() has better performance. Is that true? A: Statement vs. Function The key difference between IF and IIF is that the former is a statement IF test THEN value END IF test THEN value ELSE else END And the latter is a function IIF(test, then, else, [unknown]) Another difference, as has been alluded to in the cited link in the opening question, is that the latter also supports the notion of a seperate handing for the "unknown" case. Here is the documentation from Tableau IIF(test, then, else, [unknown]) . . . A boolean comparison may also yield the value UNKNOWN (neither TRUE nor FALSE), usually due to the presence of Null values in test. The final argument to IIF is returned in the event of an UNKNOWN result for the comparison. If this argument is left out, Null is returned. In the IF statement, the handling of the unknown case is lumped into the ELSE block. From the same document from Tableau cited above The IF THEN ELSE function evaluates a sequence of test conditions and returns the value for the first condition that is true. If no condition is true, the ELSE value is returned. About the Claim About Performance Difference As for the claim about the performance difference between the two constructs, I investigated on the claim: I have conducted quite some search, and I could not found evidence support that claim, either officially by Tableau or by another users. I conducted a small (anecdotal) experiment and I could not observe any performance difference (my test involved a dataset of 300MB from a CSV file and has 3.6M rows in it, both methods performed about as fast as each other). The Tableau employee that told me about the claim seemed to have back-peddled after I asked her the same question again for confirmation. So I would classify the claim

They are becoming all too mighty and have started believing they can get away with anything. Not really, no. As long as this game has a sleuth of fully automatic weapons and shotguns I'll never accept a pistol being the best possible weapon for any particular engagement. Pistols are self defense weapons. They're hard to aim and hold limited amounts of ammunition. There's a reason why no military anywhere give pistols out for anything other than emergencies.

even then quivering with the new world which they were bringing to light, and for which they prepared the way. Reading "Emile" in the light of modern prejudices, we can see in it more than the author wittingly put into it; but not more than logic and the instinct of genius set down there. To unfold the powers of children in due proportion to their age; not to transcend their ability; to arouse in them the sense of the observer and of the pioneer; to make them discoverers rather than imitators; to teach them accountability to themselves and not slavish dependence upon the words of others; to address ourselves more to the will than to custom, to the reason rather than to the memory; to substitute for verbal recitations lessons about things; to lead to theory by way of art; to assign to physical movements and exercises a prominent place, from the earliest hours of life up to perfect maturity; such are the principles scattered broadcast in this book, and forming a happy counterpoise to the oddities of which Rousseau was perhaps most proud.

sure that they were calculated using the boundary conditions of the European Standard okay let's have a look at the window in elevation and cross-section the baby blue area in our elevation is the area of the glazing or short a g next we have the area of the frame abbreviated a and that is the projected area of the frame and the wing so if you shown a light onto this window that's the shadow It cast on a wall immediately behind it in red we have a line not an area and this line represents the edge of glass and the length of the edge of glass is abbreviated LG and here's where we find this line in the cross-section the frame width may vary for example between the bottom and the side so we may need to do the area calculation separately for the components of the window frame the magnitude of the thermal bridge at the edge of glass may also vary and we may the E for need to calculate the lengths of the edge of glass for different components separately as well last but not least there may be separate areas of glazing in our window in consideration and in that case we have to account for these area separately once we figured the geometry of our components we need the thermal properties of those and then we can put it all together in this formula so we take the U value of the glazing multiply it with the area of the glazing and sum it up if we have more than one glazing area do the same with the U value of the frame and the area of the frame and if we have more than one to account for sum it up again and the same with the length of the edge of glass and the thermal bridging coefficient at the edge of glass which is called s and then we put this all over the sum of glazing and sum of framing areas which will give us the U value of the window in consideration Let's do an example let's say my window has exterior dimensions of 120 by 140 M and the frame has a thickness of 10 cm keeping it simple the width of the glazing is then the total minus 2 * the frame width 120 - 2 * 10 cm gives us a meter for the width of the glazing and if we do the same for the height which is 1 M and 40 cm we get 120 for the glazing height the area of the glazing is thus 1 M multiplied by 1 M and 20 which is 1.20 M squar and let's say that we know that the glazing U value or U for a triple glazing is7 W per squ met and Kelvin there are various ways to calculate the framing area but in our case it's easiest to deduct the glazing area from the total of the window which leaves us with 48 M

of the documentation I could find and looked at the code, but found nothing that seemed to address this issue. How do you use the InPlaceEditor with empty data? --Will Merrell Hey guys, I have had a user reporting a bug in my WebDAV server library. To keep things short, I currently url-encode every segment in the href-element within propfind responses. This has thus far worked for everyone, except this user (who reported to use Git as a client). After removing the url-encoding of the contents of the href element, things started working fine. So as for the question: should the href element be url-encoded or not? The spec doesn't explicitly seem to mention either way. I'm worried if I just plain remove this, clients might pick up '%-sequences' in href- elements and wrongfully decode them. Thanks, Evert It was noted that the URL I posted for the megamillions lottery no longer works. The lottery is still there, and is still running, and I will still be using the numbers that are drawn on August 29. The URL I will use for these numbers is: http://www.megamillions.com/numbers/pastdrawings.asp as that will work if someone needs to recreate the results after they have run another drawing. Thank you, For some stuff at work, I've been working with numpy, and I see that they implemented something I asked about way back when: http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/Applying-each-element-of-a-vector-to-each-row-of-a-matrix-tp3094532p3094532.html While bsxfun works, it's obscure, people don't know about it, and frankly, it's just damn ugly, and I shouldn't feel proud about myself for using it to solve something. People should just attempt the multiplication they want with .* and be happy it works. Numpy's approach is just that: bsxfun is just simply "automatic" and it seems much nicer. We could implement this without breaking any Matlab code, making it a nice Octave extension. Any objections? - Jordi G. H. These people still do not understand that technology may have mis-uses.

A: Google has now (2018-05) added checkboxes! This is how you do it now (according to Google): Select the cells you want to have checkboxes. In the menu at the top, click Insert and then Checkbox. Use this in combination with COUNTIF (or SUMIF, depending on what you want to count). Check for TRUE/FALSE. A: To build on the accepted answer, you can tweak that a bit to get checks and x's. Use two cells in your sheet, one to hold the formula =char(10003), and the other to hold =char(10005). Now follow the accepted answer exactly, but instead of "List of items" select "List from a range" and choose the two cells you just created. This will create a dropdown with a check mark and an 'x' mark in it. A: I believe I have a better solution, please see below. I don't normally post on forums, but since I could not find an acceptable solution to this problem I made my own. This will create an actual check box, bullet, radio button, or really whatever you want. first create create some images to toggle on and off. I used these: Create a script that will toggle a 1 or 0 in the cell adjacent to your check box cell. in the check box cell enter a formula similar to this (this formuls assumes your check box is in cell B2): =if(A2=1,image(" IMAGE URL FOR CHECK "),image(" IMAGE URL FOR UNCHECK ")) Now overlay

Justin's exhibition, When You Hear The Music Trouble Disappear, is on at the Graffik gallery from 20th July to 1st August. The gallery's website is here I grew up in the beautiful old Welsh town of Caernarfon. At the age of 10 my mum remarried and I spent a lot of time between Normandy and Paris- 'the city of light'. I'd been dreaming of living in swinging London since I was about 10 years old.My mum was very trendy and used to have 'beatnik' parties in the cellar of our house in Wales.I used to sit at the top of the stairs through the night listening to all the fantastic music and wishing I could live in London with all the groovy people. When I was around 13 my stepfather was seconded to London and the dream became reality. Music was like a ray of light in the darkness of mid-sixties Wales. Around 1966 The Hippies 'invaded' Caernarfon; as a young boy, they seemed like another exotic species with their coloured shades, long hair, afghan coats, flowers and smelling of patchouli oil. I used to go to a 'milk bar',drink my Coca-Cola and put songs on the jukebox trying to impress them, like Rainy Day Women, You Really Got Me, Hello I Love You etc, and secretly smoke cigarettes with them. They were very exciting times, it was as if I'd been introduced to a secret society, and i noticed how they repulsed the older generation The 4 stand out TV moments of my childhood were the Tamla Motown special on 'Ready Steady Go' (the first time a programme had been dedicated to all black artists); The Who, with the fantastic Keith Moon, playing 'Happy Jack' on 'Top of the Pops'; Jimi Hendrix on 'The Lulu Show', when he stopped playing the pre-arranged song and started playing another until he was faded out, and Rolling The Stones video to 'Jumping Jack Flash' on 'Top of the Pops', when they had all their faces painted. Music was like a ray of light in the darkness of mid-sixties Wales. When I was about 11 I was given a small portable Ferguson transistor radio which was permanently glued to my ear listening to the 'pirate' station, Radio Caroline, and at night I used to listen to Radio Luxembourg from midnight to 3am under my pillow.

outcome. Self-Regulatory Learning and Language Learning Self-regulation, given various names such as learner self-management, self-directness and autonomy is proved to be the key factor for success in language learning (Zimmerman & Schunk, 2011). Successful language learners are self-regulated learners who are able to efficiently implement appropriate language learning strategies in their learning experience (Anderson, 1991;Bin, 2008;O'Malley & Chamot, 1990;Singhal, 2001). An excellent example of the integral relationship between self-regulatory learning and language learning is Oxford's (2011) Strategic Self-Regulation (S 2 R) Model. Oxford (2017) advocates that learning strategies are the tools that learners implement to activate self-regulated cognitions, emotions and behaviors. Variant language learning strategies can fit in each of Zimmerman's three phases of self-regulation: the forethought phase, the performance phase, and the self-reflection phase. In the forethought phase, language learning strategies such as task analysis, planning and regulating emotions are commonly used by the language learner. In the performance phase, self-monitoring strategies by which the learner monitors his own performance during the task in order to examine the efficiency of strategies used and switch them when required. These strategies include cognitive and volition-regulating strategies. Self-evaluation strategies are deployed by language learner in the self-reflection phase which is the final phase of self-regulation. Therefore, in the field of language learning, self-regulation is the skill and the language learning strategies are the constituent strategies required to master such skill. Methodology This study used a case study design assigning the mixed-method approach to collect data. This approach helped in achieving complementarity. Complementarity refers to examining the various aspects or layers of the phenomenon being investigated (Riazi & Candlin, 2014). In the present study, there are two points intended for investigation. The first is the level of self-regulation that university students possess in online learning. Data needed for this aspect were collected through a questionnaire. The other area of investigation is university students' attitudes towards online learning from the perspective of self-regulatory. This was examined by conducting focus group interviews. Collected data were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively Participants 187 Saudi undergraduate students from Majmaah University with its different branches participated in the present study. 156 of the participants were females (83.4%) while 31 (16.6%) were male. They were all students in the Department of English Language at different levels. Their ages ranged from 18 to 21. Participants were from four university branches: 44.9% from Al-Zulfi, 29.4% from Majmaah, 18.2% from Hotat Sodair and 7.5% from Al-Ghat. Based on their university level, participants were grouped into four classes. Class A that constituted 16.6% of the participants were from students in levels 1 and 2. Class B (23%) contained students in levels 3 and 4. Students in levels 5 and 6 with a percentage of 32.6 composed Class C. Class D represented students in levels 7 and 8 with 27.8% (see Appendix A). There are two instruments of measurement implemented in the present study; a questionnaire and focus group structured interviews. The first instrument is the Online Self-Regulatory Learning Questionnaire (OSLQ), adopted with permission from Barnard-Brak et al. (2010). The questionnaire is designed to assess students' self-regulation

Mostly what I want to do is talk about the book with someone else, maybe write a review so I can try to articulate my thoughts on paper. YAL is really my go at encouraging students to read widely and to share their reading experiences with others and to hopefully set them on the path to becoming life long readers – because truthfully that is what I think is the most important part of my job. It’s pretty exciting to be thinking about a course devoted to a genre that actually had a fairly rocky beginning. Where does YA start? Think back to your own beginnings as a reader – not the books that were read to you, but the first books you selected on your own. In 1971, librarian Mary Kingsbury commented that librarians were acting like “frightened ostriches” with regards to accepting the notion of books for a young adult audience. By the 80s though, the genre was staring to take hold and names like Robert Cormier and Judy Blume were more familiar. Photo of a young S.E. Hinton from Penguin It would be impossible to offer a course like this without revisiting where the YA movement – arguably – began: S.E. Hinton’s classic The Outsiders. Is there a person on the planet who has not read this book? First of all – The Outsiders is 50 years old this year. Like – doesn’t that Media oppose Guantánamo hearing closure Media organizations filed a motion Thursday opposing a Pentagon prosecution proposal to close portions of the hearings next week at Guantánamo in the USS Cole bombing death-penalty case. At least 15 legal motions are on the agenda for the three-day hearing in the military commissions case of Saudi-born Abd al Rahim al Nashiri. He’s accused of orchestrating the October 2000 suicide bombing of the warship in the port of Aden, Yemen, that killed 17 U.S. sailors. Judge James Pohl, an Army colonel, is to decide issues that range from defense funding to whether to disqualify himself and appoint another military judge to the case. Also on the agenda are two sealed motions by Nashiri’s defense lawyers that seek access to information of a nature that is being withheld from the public. Nashiri’s prosecutor has filed a request to discuss those two motions “in camera,” either in the judge’s chambers or at least out of public view, and the news organizations argue against automatic closure. The Miami Herald and McClatchy company are among the 14 media groups. Nashiri is the captive “to face capital punishment if convicted in this Military Commission, and there is thus significant public interest in the Commission proceedings in this case,” press attorney David Schulz wrote in the 24-page motion, which was posted on the Pentagon website without redactions. “The court record includes allegations that Mr. al Nashiri was subjected to torture in U.S. custody, adding to the public’s

South Carolina and Latinos in Florida, who remain resilient and energized about the prospect of Barack Obama’s presidency. Florida, a key battle ground state with crucial electoral votes, provides the best news for Obama. In 2008, the President garnered 57 percent of Florida’s coveted Latino vote, and recent Gallup polls show the president’s approval ratings among Latinos remains near 50 percent, despite slight fluctuations during the heated immigration debates. African-Americans have shown even less sway. MSNBC’s own Chris Cilliza did an insightful piece for the Washington Post in November entitled, “The Obama Base Problem Myth”, in which he debunked claims that the president’s loyal support from the black community was being affected by negative media coverage and stalemate in Washington. According to Cilliza, Obama’s 84 percent approval rating among African-Americans and their continued support for the president, makes them the key demographic at play in the 2012 elections. Absent any drops in support among this political class will assure “any sort of widespread base erosion in 2012 unlikely”, Cilliza wrote. He also pointed out that the real issue Obama faced from his “liberal base support” was whether white, working-class voters, who had traditionally supported Democrats in states like Ohio and Pennsylvania, would abandon President Obama given the fact the economy was still struggling and they had not experienced the change that Obama’s hopeful 2008 campaign had promised. Well this seems to be exactly what the GOP establishment and their Tea Party operatives had been banking on. By framing President Obama as “other”, foreign and a secret-Muslim — always with an undercurrent of racialized insidiousness, the GOP have been hoping to scare white, working class voters back to their own electoral stables. By playing the race-card, they hoped to the win the political game. But they forgot that class still matters, just as much as race. Independent voters, especially the working and middle-classes, have now seen former House Speaker Newt Gingrich verbally attack poor kids and families, while he collects millions in fees from lobbying and boasts about being paid $60K for an hour’s speech. Those same working-class whites have had to listen to Mitt Romney, who’s personal wealth is estimated to be $250 million, make flippant $10,000 bets as if that’s standard for everyone during this second Great Depression. In many ways, President Obama may not be wholly responsible for his own comeback. He’s been able to watch the dogs fight, and reveal their weaknesses. Gingrich and Romney are no longer “generic” GOP candidates. They present real alternatives, which under scrutiny, have proven lackluster. Obama’s only challenge is to remain true to his values and expand his base support in the face of an aggressive Republican campaign to suppress the vote. As Obama continues to fight for American jobs, deliver foreign policy victories one after the other and appeal to the nation’s highest ideals, his GOP opponents show how little they have common with the rest of us.

keep running the entire test suite to determine whether or not my tests are passing. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Regards, Shannon I'm still not succeeding in getting multiple accounts to work with contexts. I have two accounts (both gmail), which I'll call Work and Home, with directories: ~/.mail/Work ~/.mail/Home Current I have set mu4e-maildir to the directory ~/.mail/Home; that is the Home directory, and it works fine. I know I can't re-set this variable. I understand I can set the variable "mu4e-inbox-folder" within each context. So my question is: how do I set up the "mu4e-maildir" and the two different values for "mu4e-inbox-folder" in such a way that keeps each account within its own directory? And can the "mu4e-get-mail-command" be set differently for each context? I'm using mbsync, and I'd like to use mbsync Work or mbsync Home depending on the context. Thanks very much, Alasdair The article Chris wrote was based on the work we did in some of the ATI demos. We basically store a separate set of blend weights that correspond to the face normals that are stuffed in each vertex. Although the separate "face weights" improved the artifacts significantly, it still wasn't perfect. Skinning a face normal ultimately doesn't make sense. For the math to be correct, the resulting face normal would have to represent the actual face normal for the post-skinned polygon. We tried working through the math, but our heads started to hurt. It works pretty well for most cases, but you'll still have artifacts. Alex Vlachos Hello, folks. I took the opportunity of attending Agile 2008 to spend a few hours speaking with Arlo Belshee, who I'd like to congratulate publicly here for winning a Gordon Pask Award. He told me about some research and practice he has completed regarding cost estimates--notably, not making them. He argued, or so I managed to discern, that the energy that goes in to making and managing cost estimates outweighs the benefit of having them. I immediately saw how that would work, but I wanted to know whether anyone out there has any experience running projects where you measured results but didn't estimate costs. Stories? Studies? Journals? Financial statements? Anyone? Anything?

And nothing Sprint does will prevent that, or even give me pause to rethink things. I simply drop the service and move to a better one. Perhaps Sprint will kick in a last-minute effort to keep me on its list of accounts when I drop by to cancel the data line. It would be nice to see them go to at least that much effort.

There are about six million pregnancies in the United States each year, and 50 percent of pregnant women say they take at least one medicine. Some women take medicines for health problems, like diabetes, morning sickness or high blood pressure that can start or get worse when a woman is pregnant. Others take medicines before they realize they are pregnant. Pregnancy can be an exciting time. However, this time can also make you feel uneasy if you are not sure how your medicines will affect your baby. Not all medicines are safe to take when you are pregnant. Even headache or pain medicine may not be safe during certain times in your pregnancy. Here are four tips to help you talk to your health-care provider about how prescription and over-the-counter medicines might affect you and your baby. 1. Ask questions. Always talk to your health-care provider before you take any medicines, herbs or vitamins. Don’t stop taking your medicines until your health-care provider says it is OK. Use these questions to help you talk to your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist: Will I need to change my medicines if I want to get pregnant?

and what you hope to achieve and experience with your investment money. Though narrowing down your prospects could prove challenging no matter what, there are several compelling reasons to go with an online business over an offline one. Consider the following. 1. Reduced overhead If your online business is set up correctly, there will be fewer expenses that go along with it. This is particularly true in cases where physical products, distribution, rent and other costs are non-existent. There is a decidedly different focus with online businesses, where outreach and content creation are higher priorities. Though content generation, SEO, social media and other marketing channels may require a considerable time investment, the resources required are going to be significantly less than that of a brick-and-mortar business with physical assets. Of course, reduced overhead often translates to higher profit margins as well. There are a myriad of unique monetization methods with online businesses, and this is another factor that makes the web all the more attractive. Related: 5 Ways for Online Entrepreneurs to Stand Out 2. Increased adaptability Marketing is one of the most important components to any business. What makes marketing online more attractive than offline marketing is that tracking and measuring your return on investment is much easier. By taking advantage of the abundance of tools and data available, you can adapt fast and change your approach and strategies as needed. If you have two equally good ideas and you're not sure which to go with, you can split test your ads, email campaigns, sales pages, order forms and other initiatives. By taking advantage of tools such as Google Analytics, you can monitor changes in real time. If one traffic strategy isn't working, you can try another. If conversion rates are low, you can make some tweaks to your website to increase conversion. In addition, targeting specific demographics has never been easier, especially with the rise of social media advertising. You can define the audience you want to target, in exacting detail, and begin to market to the people that are most likely to be interested in your product or service offering. Finally, there are a tremendous number of marketing channels you can take advantage of. Blogs, podcasts, videos, social media, email campaigns, white papers, ebooks and a variety of other assets can all be used to attract your target profile. In short, all of these elements allow for more adaptability. With an online business, you can quickly identify what is working and what isn't, and tweak your strategy on the fly. 3. Added flexibility With an offline business, you are often tied to a physical location. At times, there are advantages to being positioned in a specific part of the world, but the added flexibility of an online business is attractive to many entrepreneurs and investors. With an online business, if you need to work from home, you can. You can also do your work from just about anywhere in the world, as long as you have a reliable Internet connection.

tour: Masters wants to find the lost great love of his life, Lili Alfredo, and figures that this tour will smoke her out - if for no other reason than to see her child, Toni Alfredo (Claudia Cardinale), Masters' adopted daughter. One of his Western stars and wannabe-partner, Steve McCabe (John Smith), also attempts to dissuade Masters, but to no avail. Masters buys a freighter, renames her the Circus Maximus, and the show sails for Europe. At Lisbon, the first port of call, the Circus Maximus capsizes at the pier and puts the show in the cart. Masters has to release most of his performers, board out his animals, and go back to performing an act for the Ed Purdy Wild West Show, a staple on the European circus circuit. Down but not out, Masters doesn't waste the disaster. "While touring Europe at Ed Purdy's expense," as Masters puts it, he, Cap, Steve and Toni scout acts that will enable Masters to relaunch the Matt Masters Circus bigger and better than ever. The movie concentrates on three acts. The first is Emile, a French animal trainer who has a spectacular act involving lions who lie down on him in the ring. Masters offers to take him on - if he'll switch from lions to tigers (Masters has many tigers but few lions). The trainer is adamant that he does not want to change to working with tigers; his wife persuades him to do so. By the time the circus is ready to relaunch, Emile is demanding that Masters hire a doctor for "HIS tigers." The dynamic of the trainer working with the animals is delightful to see. The second is Jojo the Clown and the Wire-Dancing Ballerina (Richard Conte and Katharyna respectively). They have a unique act; Jojo is dressed as a clown but walks the high wire over a cage full of lions while coaching the Ballerina (his daugher Giovanna) as she dances on the wire. Backstage, Masters discovers that Jojo is an old acquaintace - Aldo, brother-in-law of Lili Alfredo, his lost love. Despite his reservations at hiring a possible enemy Masters takes the act on, and neither he nor Aldo admit to Toni - Aldo's niece - that they have met before. The third is Maria, an artist of the high trapeze, coincidentally where Toni wants to work instead of in the Wild West show or as part of Clown Alley, where Matt has her working in the show. In reality, Maria is the vanished Lili Alfredo (Rita Hayworth), ridden by the guilt of having been caught up in a love triangle, blaming herself for the death of her flyer husband who had fallen - or did he miss Aldo's catch on purpose? - after learning of the love triangle. She had run away from the world of the circus and kept on running, finding solace first in the Church and then in the bottle. As Masters had hoped, the lure of her daughter brought Lili out of hiding. She speaks to her daughter during a performance of Ed

generalized Lorenz curves and Gini ratios identified a set of 9 genes from the NSCLC gene expression profiles and these biomarker genes can be used for cancer prediction. Epigenetic variation can be used for cancer early detection and classification as well. Chen et al. [5] proposed a nonparametric method for detecting differentially methylated loci and suggested its application in cancer diagnosis and classification. Gene pathway and networking is another major focus of this special issue. Garrett et al. [6] investigated the molecular changes for human proximal tubule cells in the short and long term exposure of cadmium. The short and long term exposure in cells represented the acute and chronic toxic response of human kidney. Varying exposure time and cadmium concentration enabled them to conduct gene pathway analysis and construct gene networks model for toxic response by heavy metal. Pathway analysis was carried out by Liu et al. [7] to investigate potential common molecular mechanism underlying two complex diseases, Schizophrenia and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The protein-protein network revealed high connectivity hub proteins that were involved in a few important signal pathways for both diseases. Gene order is an emerging way for gene clustering and molecular pattern discovery. By combining transcriptome data with lipidomics data, Zhao et al. [8] identified activated pathways during type 2 diabetes development. Hu et al. [9] compared a few distance metrics using genetic algorithm and Ant Colony Optimization for computing gene order and found that the optimized method worked well for Alzheimer's disease microarray data. The manuscripts of this supplement cover various data types and broad topics. ChIP-Seq of RNA Pol II was used to identify the bidirectional promoter by detecting bi-peak shapes using computational approach [10]. Qureshi and Sacan [11] proposed a weighted normalization method for microRNA RT-PCR data. Juan et al. [12] investigated the interaction between microRNAs and long intergenic noncoding RNAs microRNAs. Such interactions were implied in breast cancer development. Wang et al. [13] developed a single gene sequencing technique for genotyping hepatitis B virus and detecting gene mutation for drug resistance. Zheng et al. [14] proposed a support vector machine-based machine learning method to predict DNA methylation status, which may have broad applications in disease studies. Teng, Yang and Wang [15] developed a machine learning method to predict the human tissue-specific genes from microarray data and UniProt database. Their method may be useful for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying tissue-specific diseases. Lastly, we would like to introduce a database for disease associated mutations. The database, HDAM, is constructed by Jia et al. [16] using next generation sequencing data. HDAM currently assembled 1,114 mutations accounting for 669 genes and 125 human diseases. In short, this special issue brings forth many exciting scientific discoveries and methodology advances that present the cutting edge development of genomics research in human diseases. We hope that it would provide guidance for the questions and attempts in current genomics research and stimulate ideas for future studies. © 2013 Zhang et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.

Front. Chem. 6:535.trifloaluminate ionic liquidsmetal triflateschromanecarbon nanotubesSILP The first example of triflometallate ionic liquids, named in analogy to chlorometallate ionic liquids, is reported. Trifloaluminate ionic liquids, synthesized from 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium triflates and aluminum triflate, were characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and FT-IR spectroscopy, revealing the existence of oligonuclear, multiply-charged trifloaluminate anions, with multiple bridging triflate modes. Acceptor numbers were determined to quantify their Lewis acidity, rendering trifloaluminate ionic liquids as medium-strength Lewis acids (AN = ca. 65). Used as acidic catalysts in the cycloaddition of 2,4-dimethylphenol and isoprene (molar ratio 2:1) to prepare chromane, trifloaluminate systems outperformed literature systems, showing high activity (conversions 94-99%, selectivities 80-89%) and at low loadings (0.2 mol%) at 35 • C. Using these new systems as supported ionic liquid phase (SILP) on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (ionic liquid loading 16 wt%) delivered a recyclable catalytic system, with activity enhanced with respect to the homogenous regime. INTRODUCTION Lewis acid catalysis is widely used, from multi-ton industrial processes to asymmetric synthesis of fine chemicals. However, traditional Lewis acids (AlCl 3 and BF 3 ) suffer from several drawbacks, in particular high corrosivity and propensity to hydrolysis. Therefore, many Lewis-acid catalyzed reactions must be carried out under strictly anhydrous conditions and using corrosion-resistant vessels. Furthermore, low stability toward water limits application of strong Lewis acids in reactions where water is eliminated, e.g., condensation. Lewis acid catalysis in organic synthesis is typically carried out in an organic solvent, which comes with a set of challenges in terms of process sustainability, from flammability and issues of recycling/disposal, to difficulties in dissolving both the catalyst and the reactants at sufficient concentrations. Ionic liquids have been used to address some of these challenges: typically inflammable, they also offer enhanced separation and recycling strategies, from liquid biphasic systems to supported ionic liquid phases (SILPs) (Plechkova and Seddon, 2008). Lewis acidic ionic liquids are nearly synonymous with chlorometallate ionic liquids, i.e., ionic liquids that contain Lewis acidic chlorometallate anions. They are synthesized by the reaction of a metal halide with an organic halide salt (e.g., 1ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride) at various reactant ratios, commonly reported as the molar ratio of the metal halide, χ MClx . Lewis acidic systems are typically associated with the excess of metal halide, resulting in the formation of oligonuclear, Lewis acidic anions (Estager et al., 2010(Estager et al., , 2014Hardacre et al., 2010;Atkins et al., 2011). Systems with chloroaluminate(III), chlorogallate(III) or chlorostannate(II) anions may be used to fine-tune the strength of

Troy Davis to die by lethal injection in Georgia on Wednesday as protesters appeal to stop execution going ahead Death row inmate Troy Davis faces execution on Wednesday evening, despite a furious campaign in the US and Europe to win clemency for Davis over his conviction for a murder he says he did not commit. Vigils outside Georgia's death chamber were set up, and protests were planned across the US. Davis's attorneys said he was willing to take a polygraph test if the pardons board would consider its results. Davis's lawyers also drew up a late appeal asking a local judge to block the execution over evidence Davis's legal team object to. Defense attorney Brian Kammer told the Associated Press he would file the appeal in superior court in Butts County, home of the state's death row, when it opens on Wednesday. The motion argues that ballistic testing that linked Davis to the shooting was flawed. In Europe, where the planned execution has drawn widespread criticism, politicians and activists were making a last-minute appeal to the state of Georgia to stop the execution. Amnesty International and other groups planned a protest outside the US embassy in Paris, and Amnesty also called for a vigil outside the embassy in London. Parliamentarians and government ministers from the Council of Europe, the EU's human rights watchdog, called

uuum, pffffff. What’s the word. Universal.” Fitz replied “Are we going to talk about how this is essentially a boring version of Pawn Stars?” Hunter claimed “This was around for at least 30 years before Pawn Stars started. But I agree that Pawn Stars is pretty great. Except for that one time when one of our retired agents tried selling a prototype weapon to them. That paperwork was not fun.” Coulson replied. “To be fair, the stories you guys are telling make this show a billion times more interesting.” Bobbi commented. “Oh. I think I remember processing that one. It was certainly a highlight. But not as good as Sitwell’s report on the Chitauri weapon that was missing.” May said. “Trip really has the inside scoop for that.” Mack agreed with Bobbi. “I feel a lot better about tasing Sitwell now that we know he was HYDRA.” Jemma said “Shush guys, I’m trying to watch.” Skye complained. The group, thankfully, listened to Skye, as Trip continued to lecture her on how the Commandos carried around a Bucky Bear that was shot more than they were. Until Dernier gutted it and used it as a bomb, that is. Trip’s granddad was apparently a _very_ talkative drunk. “Don’t be ridiculous, Samantha,” was all he said before returning to his room. “THIS ISN’T OVER YET AND YOU KNOW IT,” echoed through the bunker. 2. Evil blankets The next few days flew by in a haze, and Cas still hadn’t left his room for more than the occasional snack or a quick run to the bathroom. Dean had kinda begun to worry about him. Okay – rationally, there was no need to. He was perfectly safe with them. Finally! The bunker had protection against all kinds of supernatural beings and was even warded against angels now. Crowley was still in the dungeon and he had ganked Abaddon when she had made a reappearance a few months ago. Theoretically, Cas was okay and wasn’t facing any danger, but that still didn’t change the fact that he wanted to burst through that door and drag him downstairs right at this moment. Was what so great about this damn laptop anyway? He was on his way downstairs again, when decided that enough was enough. He stopped in front of Cas’s door, his hand raised in an attempt to knock, but – to hell with it – he thought and just opened it wide. The second Cas laid eyes upon him, several things happened at once. Cas shrieked in a high-pitched voice, throwing the laptop off the bed in a failed attempt of closing it, which made Cas himself fall off the bed sideways, because his blanket burrito hindered any useful movements to prevent the fall. Dean jumped in surprise at the turn of events and couldn’t stop the loud laugh from escaping his mouth. “Cas, you alright?” he asked and moved forwards to grab him and the multiple layers of blankets around him, helping him back onto the bed. Dean sat down next to Cas and looked at him

just missed the deadline for the Oct 1st round), but I do have a batch out to Mattel that are due back. If I'm right, we'll see 'em tomorrow. I realize he was being a bit "tongue-in-cheek" with that response, but really? The simple answer is to "keep making more figures" which of course would get a response along the lines of "blah blah blah, fan interest, blah blah blah diverse line blah blah blah nothing planned but hopefully soon blah blah blah ...". I get it. It isn't a "simple answer" issue and there are factors at work that we don't always recognize or acknowledge (like WB's master hand in the cookie jar). But... I truly believe that if a toy company (any company really, this doesn't only apply to Mattel) were to announce "we are focused on completing Team-Y! as part of this year's mix" or "we are working toward completing Team-2! with a steady mix of those characters across the next x-years of the sub ..." it would generate much good will and probably greater sales. They did it with "Super Powers" in the DCU, and with a "year of New Gods" so to speak, so why not a year of JSA, or LOSH, or TT, or (insert your favorite team here). Granted, you won't get EVERY character in EVERY version from EVERY roster, but it would sure go a long way towards a fully robust representation now wouldn't it? Granted, my two cents and all, take it with a grain of salt if you must... I think it would be interesting if Mattel were to supplement the regular Club IE sub with additional 6-figure subs, like the Watchmen sub, but that focused on particular groups. They could easily fill out a 6-figure Legion of Super-Heroes sub, for example. They could pepper one or two Legionnaires into the regular sub and then do additional team members through the sub-sub. Would that model work for other teams like the JSA and Teen Titans (or my beloved Outsiders)? Hard to say until they try it. Personally I think there are enough figures of JSAers to begin with, but that's just me. It'd be cool to see a Legion sub with a BAF of Blok or something in it. It'd have to be at a higher price point, but I feel like the Legion fans have already proven that they'll pay that to get their team built, and the added value of the BAF would soften the price blow. The problem is that they're so worried about losing a potential sub group of their sales so they hold off members of each team and eventually get to where we are now. Multiple incomplete teams, almost no chance of finishing any of them. You know if they would have said they were going to focud on fleshing out the original Teen Titans to go with Robin and Kid Flash or the New Teen Titans I would have subscribed in a heartbeat for this year and next. But Being so secretive means I didn't.

15th UIUC will be playing OSU at football at home. The ABT has run numerous tournaments on home game days. Since teams arrive around 8-830 they beat the traffic push that accompanies the game.

The morning section will consist of 4 brackets of 6 teams each playing a round robin within their bracket. Lunch will follow the fifth round Once teams get back from lunch they will be reseeded into 3 brackets of 8. The way they will be reseeded is the teams with the best and second best RECORD will advance to the top bracket, third and fourth best records the 2nd bracket and so on. They will play the other 6 teams that they did not face in the prelims with that one match carrying over. If teams are tied in record going into the afternoon the tie will be broken by head to head and then PPB. The finals will be determined by a traditional ACF advantaged final.

Brad FischerNHBB Director of Question Production and Upper Midwest Regional CoordinatorCoach, Keith Country Day School PLEASE do points per game. Head to head just arbitrarily double counts a single game, since the tie wouldn't exist in the first place without that game result, and then it arbitrarily rewards the winner of that game without hurting them at all for whatever other loss of theirs created the tie, while it REALLY hurts the other team without rewarding them for whatever other wins of theirs created the tie. As for points per bonus, it is infinitely easier for PPB to be miscounted than for PPG to be miscounted, and there is no need to compare teams of unlike schedules, which is only what you are supposed to use PPB for in ACF rules. I don't trust points per bonus's reliability at all, and think in this scenario points per game is the way

cleared before blockchain adoption can reach its potential. A big technical hurdle is efficiency and speed. By its very nature, a decentralized database requiring a majority of constituents to agree and validate each transaction (called “proof of work” in blockchain jargon) is slower than a centralized one. Earlier this year, some bitcoin transactions took more than two days to settle. While improvements to the underlying network have increased the speed considerably since, it underscores the inherent speed challenges in a decentralized environment. Consultancy Opimas observed that this concern around scalability has led to some major industry players—including Digital Asset Holdings and R3—to focus on a smaller shared ledger instead of a distributed one. “In this infrastructure, market participants’ nodes only keep a record of the transactions to which they are a counterparty, and that they upload from a central ledger that keeps a record of all transactions,” Opimas wrote in its report, according to the Financial Times. “This is quite an evolution from the initial blockchain model, as the infrastructure becomes a semi-distributed environment in which a partial ledger co-exists with a central ledger.” This model, which isn’t very decentralized or permissionless, does not differ greatly from how data is stored today. Another major hurdle is inherent to the nature of business and competition, and it has existed for thousands of years: Different institutions simply cannot agree. This is a main reason for why the European Union has become dysfunctional and the euro currency is so maligned. The blockchain, by its very definition, is not flexible or dynamic enough to accommodate different protocols. Changes to underlying code that change its behavior make it incompatible with itself and create a whole new blockchain, known as a fork. The original bitcoin has spawned several versions—Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, and Bitcoin Private, to name the major ones—because its miner and developer-community could not agree on a common path forward. In a research paper by the SWIFT Institute, a group of researchers pointed out that while blockchain is a good idea for the financial services industry, the ability to coordinate and agree presents the biggest challenge. “Opportunities for sharing data through distributed databases have been around for years,” the researchers wrote, “but there is a danger of building unrealistic expectations of the extent to which this technology will, on its own, address the underlying need for coordination of business processes within and between firms. “We do think that full senior management buy-in to mutual distributed ledgers will only happen after taking account of the implications for their competitive positioning and may not happen at all without addressing the incentives and cultures that drive decision making in major financial institutions.” A more recent development in Europe presented another difficulty for blockchain development. The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires companies storing user data to erase such information at the request of the user. This legislation has already created some angst among internet and technology companies. There’s intrinsic tension between GDPR and the blockchain: Data on the blockchain cannot be erased due to its decentralized and tamper-proof

large number of $ arrays of *Int *s. And the storableVector seems to be extremely nice. Am trying to understand the way a tuple is made a storable record in the synthesizer package on hackage but I thought I will ask it here too. Thanks in advance Hemanth K I too have come up against the point you raised with :dependent - it is slighty strange behavior from the perspective of someone who likes to put as much constraint in the DB as possible. Also, an extended AR that introspected some of PostgreSQL's information on constraints would be very beneficial, I agree. A well thought out post! Cheers, Dan I don't think smartmontools should circumvent this kernel bug in the smartmontools source code. If they don't fix the FreeBSD kernel bug, then any unprivileged program can panic the system with one system call. If they do fix the FreeBSD kernel bug, then no change to smartmon is needed. If we change smartmon, then the kernel bug is more likely to slip through the cracks, leaving a lingering vulnerability. The original unofficial patch (which aligned a single variable, rather than many structs using maintenance-complicating conditional compilation) is all that is needed for the few sites who can't patch their kernel and who need to quickly patch smartmon to diagnose their drives.

Michael McGrady Hello, we recently switched to the OSELAS Toolchain for ARM1136 processors and faced a problem considering the u-boot API. If compiling the API demo with -Os (as default in u-boot) the demo does not run anymore. If activating -fno-relocate-functions in the used cflags the demo runs as before with our old toolchain. Can somebody tell me, why the demo doesn't run with relocate-functions activated? Does u-boot expect a special function on a fixed adress in the demo? Any information appreciated. Thanks. Sebastian I’m a bit confused about setting PERL_VERSION in make.conf. It seems that setting it to 5.20.3 will result in Perl-related ports to be built differently than not setting it.

suicide much. No, sir! He didn't kill himself,--not he. Why, old Bixby--and he's a deacon in good standin'--allowed, in 'Lige's hearin' and for 'Lige's benefit, that self-destruction was better nor bad example, and proved it by Scripture too. And yet 'Lige did nothin'! Desp'rit! He's only desp'rit to laze around and fish all day off a log in the tules, and soak up with whiskey, until, betwixt fever an' ague and the jumps, he kinder shakes hisself free o' responsibility." A long silence followed; it was somehow felt that the subject was incongruously exciting; Billings allowed himself to lapse again behind the back of his chair. Meantime it had grown so dark that the dull glow of the stove was beginning to outline a faint halo on the ceiling even while it plunged the further lines of shelves behind the counter into greater obscurity. "Time to light up, Harkutt, ain't it?" said Wingate, tentatively. "Well, I was reckoning ez it's such a wild night there wouldn't be any use keepin' open, and when you fellows left I'd just shut up for good and make things fast," said Harkutt, dubiously. Before his guests had time to fully weigh this delicate hint, another gust of wind shook the tenement, and even forced the unbolted upper part of the door to yield far enough to admit an eager current of humid air that seemed to justify the wisdom of Harkutt's suggestion. Billings slowly and with a sigh assumed a sitting posture in the chair. The biscuit-nibbler selected a fresh dainty from the counter, and Wingate abstractedly walked to the window and rubbed the glass. Sky and water had already disappeared behind a curtain of darkness that was illuminated by a single point of light--the lamp in the window of some invisible but nearer house--which threw its rays across the glistening shallows in the road. "Well," said Wingate, buttoning up his coat in slow dejection, "I reckon I oughter be travelin' to help the old woman do the chores before supper." He had just recognized the light in his own dining-room, and knew by that sign that his long-waiting helpmeet had finally done the chores herself. "Some folks have it mighty easy," said Billings, with long-drawn discontent, as he struggled to his feet. "You've only a step to go, and yer's me and Peters there"--indicating the biscuit-nibbler, who was beginning to show alarming signs of returning to the barrel again--"hev got to trapse five times that distance." "More'n half a mile, if it comes to that," said Peters, gloomily. He paused in putting on his overcoat as if thinking better of it, while even the more fortunate and contiguous Wingate languidly lapsed against the counter again. The moment was a critical one. Billings was evidently also regretfully eying the chair he had just quitted. Harkutt resolved on a heroic effort. "Come, boys," he said, with brisk conviviality, "take a parting drink with me before you go." Producing a black bottle from some obscurity beneath the counter that smelt strongly of india-rubber boots, he placed it with

when I picked it up - so a lot of the blame for me not enjoying this book is on ME. The writing is extremely affected and tedious, which I can justify for the story since the narrator is a 17 year old girl, but it just wasn't enjoyable to read. The book starts foreshadowing a mysterious accident on page 1 and doesn't stop dropping heavy handed hints until the last chapter. The book uses this huge tragedy at the end of the story to try to add weight to things, but everything that precedes the tragedy twist are nothing, pedestrian problems (headaches, division of an inheritance) that it's hard to care deeply about. A wonderful modern day ( well 1970s) retelling of Othello , this may just be my favourite of the Hogarth Shakespeare Series so far. As always the quality of Chevalier's writing shines through and her recreation of the characters as school age children is a very clever idea. Even at this stage of life they allow preconceived ideas and the opinions of others to colour their judgement. The three central characters, O, Dee and Ian are particularly well drawn in relation to their Shakespearian counterparts, though if I had a slight criticism it's that Ian is too obviously a villainous character, with no redeeming qualities. O, on the other hand seems perfectly characterised as the outsider, a new boy in school, and the only non white student. His anxiety and struggles to embrace his own identity while trying to fit in are the emotional core of the book. "You know, there's more to being an evil despot then getting cake whenever you want it." "If that's what you think, then you're DOING IT WRONG!" One moment Agatha has at last triumphed as the Heterodyne and tyrant of Mechanicsburg. The next, it is too and a half years later, she is trapped in a fortress in an unknown location, and everyone there wants to kill here. But she is getting used to that.... With this latest Girl Genius collection, I am able to spot the critical details I missed online, and get some idea of what is actually going on. (Adventure! Romance! MAD SCIENCE!) And it the midst of the chaos, Agatha and her faithful, if somewhat baffled, companions are setting out to see more of this world. We can expect great revelations in the next collection. ("Agatha Heterodyne and the Master of Paris"?) I did not want it to end. Gothic setting, historical fiction (mostly of the everyday folk of the era), real but deeply flawed characters...story will stay with me a long time...difficult to start a new book! A breathlessly paced and richly imagined journey through a portal into another time. So difficult to craft a story like this with absolute integrity but Ransom Riggs pulls it off with aplomb.

to take action. He provided Oliver with an option. He told him that he could train him to fight and protect; and that with Bratva training he would be able to protect those he loves and keep them safe. Oliver had grasped on to those words as if they were his lifeline, it gave him hope and it gave him a purpose. He never wanted to feel helpless ever again. Oliver's training to become a Bratva member had begun. Anatoly had quickly realized that Oliver's training had brought out a change of behavior, he opened up more to Raisa and himself, and he showed more affection and love towards Thea; but he still kept a proper distance. Anatoly believed that there might not be a power or force in the world that could break down the iron walls that Oliver had built around himself. At the age of 18 Oliver had become a weapon and a threat to all those who threatened the Bratva. He had exceeded expectations in all his training and he had showed up and gained respect of all those who showed disapproval towards him for being the heir of the Bratva, even though he was an American. The Bratva captains and members of the Bratva loved him, the girls loved him, and although they showered him with acceptance and love, he kept his distance. He never had more then a one night stand or more then a few friends. Many believed him to be cold and heartless but he was envied nonetheless for his control, power, and air of dominance at such a young age. He was deemed a prodigy. “Yeah I wouldn’t bet on it buddy,” she said. Her face softened into a small shy smile and leant up so kiss him gently on the mouth. She lifted them with her biotics, flipping their bodies so she could straddle his waist. “I love it when you think you’re right,” she said looking down at him fondly. “I always knew you were a top, Shepard,” a voice came from behind them. Jane looked over to see Nihlus walking towards them. Shepard clambered off Garrus and hauled him up to his feet. “Why Nihlus! I never knew you thought of me in that way. All those times I drank all your booze and crashed with you half naked and you never once made a move!” she said, putting an extra sway in her hips as she sauntered over to him. “And to what do we owe this absolute pleasure that is your presence?” “Just the normal intentions anyone would have coming to a gym: working out,” he said, but then his bravado left as suddenly as he had entered. “Actually while I have you I need to tell you something.” The sternness of his words spoke volumes. “Oкровавленный,” she murmured. He nodded. She bit down on her lower lip and turned to Garrus who was looking at her, his ice blue eyes boring into her knowing there had been a shift in her mood. “Give us a sec,” she

A: I achieved hover functionality while maintaining 'clickability' fairly easily: jQuery(".pointer").hover( function(){ var thisdiv = jQuery(this).attr("data-target") jQuery(thisdiv).collapse("show"); }, function(){ var thisdiv = jQuery(this).attr("data-target") jQuery(thisdiv).collapse("hide"); } ); I was already using the data-attributes, so I kept them, and used them here to trigger the right divs. "pointer" is a class on my toggle links, so you can adapt that to whatever you need. A: You can copy the collapsible data-api straight from the plugins script and tweak it around to achieve the hover functionality. You can then place it inside your own script.js file and target the collapsible you want modified to open on hover instead of on click. Try this for example: JS $(function() { $('#accordion2').on('mouseenter.collapse.data-api', '[data-toggle=collapse]', function(e) { var $this = $(this), href, target = $this.attr('data-target') || e.preventDefault() || (href = $this.attr('href')) && href.replace(/.*(?=#[^\s]+$)/, '') //strip for ie7 , option = $(target).data('collapse') ? 'show' : $this.data() $(target).collapse(option) }) }) This is a direct copy of the data-api block found on the plugin, i just replaced the click event with mouseenter and also the collapse option, changed it to show instead. Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/um2q2/1/ A: Add the following script $( ".hoverExpand" ).hover( function() { if (! $(this).hasClass('collapsing') && $(this).hasClass('collapsed')) { $( this ).click(); } }, function() { if (! $(this).hasClass('collapsing') || ! $(this).hasClass('collapsed')) { $( this ).click(); } } ); Add hoverExpand (or whatever you want to call it) to the element. See example below <a class="hoverExpand" data-toggle="collapse" data-parent="#accordion" href="#collapseOne">A plane that flies below water</a> Q: How to check that an attribute not exists in an element with PHPUnit? I'm trying to test that an element don't exists in a page. I know that exists the elementAttributeExists() method that checks that an attribute exists in an element. But I can't find any method like elementAttributeNotExists() to check that an attribute don't exists in an element. So, with the following code I can check that the 'autocomplete' attribute is present in the #edit-pass element: public function testLoginForm() { // Going to the log in. $this->drupalGet('/user/login'); // Checking that the autocomplete is not set. $this->assertSession()->elementAttributeExists('css', '#edit-pass', 'autocomplete'); } But how I can check that the autocomplete attribute is not present? A: You can check if there is a matching element for #edit-pass which has the attribute. Because #edit-pass targets only one element this has the same result when you know that this element exists: $this->assertSession()->elementNotExists('css', '#edit-pass[autocomplete]'); Q: How to cluster a set of images?

However, I don't find any fixed threshold value to group the images. How efficiently can these

Thank you for your time and help A: There are [known] issues with SSL on rubygems.org, not on your machine.

Q: "Expression type 'NhDistinctExpression' is not supported by this SelectClauseVisitor." - with Query Syntax Given the following expression, how do I go about getting a distinct list of venues, without getting that nasty "Expression type 'NhDistinctExpression' is not supported by this SelectClauseVisitor." error? public Dictionary<int, string> GetScheduledVenuesFuture() { var venues = from v in _sp.CurrentSessionOn(DatabaseName.MyDB).Query<Venue>() join s in _sp.CurrentSessionOn(DatabaseName.MyDB).Query<ScheduledClass>() on v.VenueId equals s.Venue.VenueId where s.CourseDate >= _cac.Now && s.Closed == false && s.Canceled == false select new { v.VenueId, v.Name }; return venues.ToDictionary(v => v.VenueId, v => v.Name); } I've tried setting return venues.ToDictionary(v => v.VenueId, v => v.Name); as distinct by doing: return venues.Distinct().ToDictionary(v => v.VenueId, v => v.Name); but that throws the error. I also tried surrounding the entire query syntax statement in parens, and putting a .Distinct() at the end of it, but that also resulted in the same error. A: I wound up solving this another way: public class ScheduledVenueDTO { public int VenueId { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } } public Dictionary<int, string> GetScheduledVenuesFuture() { var venues = from v in _sp.CurrentSessionOn(DatabaseName.SMS).Query<Venue>() join s in _sp.CurrentSessionOn(DatabaseName.SMS).Query<ScheduledClass>() on v.VenueId equals s.Venue.VenueId where s.CourseDate >= _cac.Now && s.Closed == false && s.Canceled == false select new { v.VenueId, v.Name }; var svd = venues .GroupBy(v => new { v.VenueId, v.Name}) .Select(v => new ScheduledVenueDTO() { VenueId = v.Key.VenueId, Name = v.Key.Name }); return svd.ToDictionary(v => v.VenueId, v => v.Name); } I simply created a new DTO, and with a groupBy, injected that DTO with only distinct venues.

Instantly her senses were on high alert, every nerve buzzing with something other than alcohol. Dany knew it was pointless to keep up the act so instead she went for his base male instincts… if this didn’t work she knew she was utterly screwed. Delicately stroking his hair she ran red nails down the side of his face, caressing his ear, then his jaw, and then… ‘bzzt!’ Her hairpin shocked him in the most sensitive part of his neck his right hand shooting up to grab the offending object in reflex but dropping the gun in the process. Ducking his left hook to the stomach she leapt to the ground kicking his firearm away with her boots, taking one last look at him standing behind her, heaving and snarling like… like… well a wolf. And then she was gone, running, running, running, out the double doors and into the graffiti covered alleyway, sprinting to the black Lamborghini two streets over and pulling out her gun in the process. The sleek black weapon fit into her pale hands like a missing puzzle piece, ammo loaded and her trigger finger itching as she reached the sports car. Dany didn’t waste a second, her petite form cramming into the car and slamming the winged door shut in a rush, Tyrion had already started the engine thank the gods but her earpiece had been silent. As she set the gun down on the dash however, a motorcycle engine revved in the distance. Her brow furrowed in annoyance, it was so typical of DW agents to use motorcycles… but then she heard a wheel screech and knew it would be hell if this guy caught her. So the Mother Of Dragons floored it, blood racing as she sped down the grimy streets of town and took the complicated route back to HQ. Her cloaking device was working, that much her dash screen told her… but he was in pursuit that much was obvious. Realistically though? The White Wolf didn’t stand a chance. Daenerys was often told that she was born to drive, when she was little and on the run she would win drag races for the prize money, beating teenage boys and grown men like it was nothing. This particular car was her favorite, the sleek Lamborghini having been a gift to herself out of a generous bonus from KCI last Christmas. She dubbed the gorgeous thing Drogon in honor of the barbarian she had been sold off to as a girl. A man that had come to love and protect her in a way that none had before. The Mother of Dragons needed more than one dragon however, and she had taken it upon herself to use the high-paid assassin salary to buy herself a hoard, the only lavish indulgence she allowed herself. She had a soft spot for the porsche GT3, with its

buy **one**._ _No, Zoro used his very own wooden swords, self-made from some old abandoned plank wood he’d found in an isolated pit near his home. Really, everything he trained with he’d made himself from random scraps he’d found. His dummies, his ropes, his weights---all made by him and they did their purpose just nicely._ _Hearing samurai legends, he knew they used only one sword in battle, and he tried it out himself on a dummy. Holding the handle between his little hands, he whacked the thing until it was nearly broken. Zoro enjoyed the small rush that it cast through his body, but he came to realize that it wasn’t enough._ _He didn’t want to be known as any other basic swordsman out there. He wanted to be different. And so, he’d messily made a second sword and then a third one, his crazy idea of how exactly to use the third one causing him to build faster with excitement._ _All three wooden swords finished, two in his hands and one placed between his teeth, and with even more dummies set up, he whacked at them with everything he had._ _Now he wouldn’t have said he was the master of using his unique technique just yet, but he was going to get there. He was sure of it. Even if he had to work all alone to get there._ _After a few more sets of rock-lifting, he decided to move on, and, letting go of the handles, he panted lightly as the boulder fell to the ground behind him with a loud thump._ _Zoro stood there for a good minute, trying to catch his breath. Small beads of sweat trickled down his forehead while he looked down to stare at his hands, which were held out in front of him, palms up, trembling slightly._ _But then, a second later, he clenched them and looked straight ahead at his dummies, already motivated to move on to his next set of practice. By the base of the tree sat his three wooden swords in a heap, and he walked to them to retrieve them. He placed the hilt of one of them in his mouth and grabbed the others in his hands._ _Zoro turned back around and stared at his dummies, ready to charge at them._ _It suited him just fine that he was all alone. If the other kids didn’t want to practice with him, then to hell with the--_ _“You’re out here again.”_ _Zoro gasped as he swiftly turned, preparing himself to fight whoever had just spoken, even while the sword in his mouth slipped out._ Hana takes a peak at Midoriya, excitedly marveling at his idol. The boy seems so swept away that she fears given enough time, those flies from the trash can would have stuffed his parting mouth. She can see a drool threatening to fall out as well.

positive input from me. The camparison to SCIGen is great! I have thought about such a thing but didnt know it actually existed. It looks so cool! I imagine these texts could be used in so many different ways: Trolling Journals of course. Superb! In a way, the perfect ingredient for a double-blind study of the scientific process. But then these texts could also be used for meditation: If you feel tired of all these interesting but hard papers you wanted to read, but you are unable to do anything else than opening a PDF on your PC or MAC then open a SCIGen Paper! You know that you dont have to understand or remember anything, so you can just give it a go and enjoy the flow. Trolling this last procedure: Mixing a real paper, an unobviously good one, into the ones from SCIGen. Enjoy!

Shouting "FIRE" in a movie theatre, or "BOMB" in an airport isn't freedom of speech. That's freedom of instilling panic. Freedom of speech is there so everyone can convey their own ideas and opinions. Whether or not there is fire in a movie theater, or there is a bomb or not on the plane isn't an opinion, it's either factual or non-factual.

system, and as such I'd like to prevent user modules from outputting data directly instead of using the method supplied by the system. The way I would like to this is opening a new filehandle in the mian module (lexically scoped so noone else can get at it) and then retying STDOUT to a module that logs all attempts to use the filehandle. Now, having done my research I found that STDOUT is tied to the Apache class, and that simply duping STDOUT isn't sufficient (it doesn't conserve the tie). I also found that saying tie *NEWOUT, "Apache"; doesn't do the necessary magic to make the new handle work. So, is there a way I can move STDOUT to a new handle, or do I have no other choice than to say "please don't use direct output"? Thanks in advance, Arne I keep reading how quickly unsecured servers on high speed connections can be compromised. Is it really as bad as they keep saying? Just how long could a server (IIS 6 on Windows 2003 Server RC2) remain safe when just sitting quietly and not offering an Internet presence? The box is a standard desktop (Pentium 4). The connection is a full T1. It sits outside my firewall with no protection other than a medium difficult password on the administrator account. The built-in software firewall similar to the one in Windows XP is not activated. You can ping the box and it will reply. There are no web pages being served other than a basic page indicating it is a web server and the OS. FrontPage 2002 Extensions are also installed. It also has the INETPUB Folder installed on the same c:\ partition as the operating system. There really has been so special security other than a default installation and the basic Windows Update patches. Well, it has been over 6 weeks since installation and nobody has gotten into the box. Yeah, I know someone working at it could compromise it but the casual scans and script kiddies just keep passing it by. (There are many attempts recorded in the logs.) I got bored waiting and decided to add an FTP Server and allow read/write access for anyone. I was also disappointed that after 12 hours, it hadn't been touched. Another 6 hours went by and still nothing. Maybe Internet hacking was dead we didn't need firewalls anymore. Well, it didn't make it 24 hours before it compromised. (Yes, I did kind of help it along.) I received about 160 MB of files uploaded. They left this message: For Team Tacheron Universal - Scanned'n'Upped by Sol There were a couple of downloads of those files before I turned off the FTP Service. (The files were Karaoke; nothing good!) So what am I saying? A misconfigured FTP Server with anonymous read/write access was quickly used by someone. The HTTP Server seems to be remarkably secure against all common vulnerabilities. This was using the default installation.

One thing for sure, the had deep feelings for each other. Ellis as a past that he's not happy about. A tragic event has his emotions in overload. And the sex scenes, hot hotness!! I bawled my Damn eyes out reading this. I cried reading the previous ones too, but this one really got to me. I think the author has done such an amazing job with these books! Everyone needs to read this. I have no clue why I didn't read them sooner!! 5 out of 5 stars. 3.5 stars. A good filler book - between books that you love. I have really enjoyed this series. Granted the basic plot is the same, but I do love the characters and how well developed they are in the storylines! Why Nolan and Hailey had to spam me with the fact that both of them slept with half the population of the USA? It's ok to mention it once or twice, but after the third time it became tiring. I don't care if both of them said that they used other people in order to find a substitute for what they couldn't have. I just wasn't sold on it. Why couldn't the characters just admit that they liked sex instead of saying stuff like in my mind they were Nolan or Hailey? Nolan rushed back into Hailey's life and she accepted him without giving him a hard time about the reason that had her out of his life for so long. Things were as if they had never been seperated. I expected more from Hailey, some backbone or self esteem. The flashbacks give a little info on how Nolan fell in love with Hailey and what happened that fateful night that made Nolan leave everything and everyone behind. It explained a lot and while I understand why he did it, I still disapprove the fact that he left people behind. The whole story wasn't very believable and it was borderline ridiculous at some point. Things would have been better if the author had just focused on the romance between the characters and the identity of the person who put Hailey into a coma. The blurb made things sound so much better and I am a little sad that I didn't get what I wanted. Since this is the first book read by the author I will read the second in the series and then decide what to do and if I like the author's writing style. Technically I suppose this was literary criticism, but it is also hilarious. I laughed so many times reading this book. It just goes to show that yes, romance readers are intelligent enough to understand the innate silliness of the genre, while also appreciating it. Since I've only been reading romance for a couple of years, it was good to get a more historical overview, and also to confirm/challenge my own experiences and perceptions with the genre. I now have a bunch more books to add to my mental "to read" pile. I think this book desperately needs a new edition.

anxious and very unhappy." Although she was still smiling, tears had gathered in her eyes, and he, likewise moved, again kissed her, murmuring: "Dear Marie! How happy it makes me to find you as beautiful and as affectionate as ever." Pierre, who was looking at them, deemed them cold. He had doubtless expected more tears, and a more passionate embrace on the part of an affianced pair, whom so grievous an accident had separated almost on the eve of their wedding. Moreover, his feelings were hurt by the disproportion of their respective ages. No doubt his brother still seemed to him very sturdy and young, and his feeling of repulsion must have come from that young woman whom, most decidedly, he did not like. Ever since her arrival he had experienced increasing discomfort, a keener and keener desire to go off and never return. So acute became his suffering at feeling like a stranger in his brother's home, that he at last rose and sought to take his leave, under the pretext that he had some urgent matters to attend to in town.

[Illustration: (Publisher colophon)] London: E. & F. N. SPON, 125 STRAND. New York: SPON & CHAMBERLAIN, 12 CORTLANDT STREET. 1894 PREFACE. Time was when the foremost aim and ambition of the English housewife was to gain a full knowledge of her own duties and of the duties of her servants. In those days, bread was home-baked, butter home-made, beer home-brewed, gowns home-sewn, to a far greater extent than now. With the advance of education, there is much reason to fear that the essentially domestic part of the training of our daughters is being more and more neglected. Yet what can be more important for the comfort and welfare of the household than an appreciation of their needs and an ability to furnish them. Accomplishments, all very good in their way, must, to the true housewife, be secondary to all that concerns the health, the feeding, the clothing, the housing of those under her care. And what a

self-lacing Nike Mag shoes that were featured in the movie. Details though remain sketchy. ‘Jaws 19’? Major car manufacturers are also getting in on the act. Toyota, which makes a brief appearance in the film in the form of a retro pick-up truck, has launched a campaign linking its launch of the Mirai, a car that runs on hydrogen fuel cells, with the film’s vision of cars running on fuel cells powered by garbage. It even has a website (www.toyota.com/outatime/) with the words: “On October 21, 2015 the future will become a reality.” Toyota has released a teaser video – the full-length version will be released on Wednesday on the website – of Lloyd and Fox discussing what the film got right and wrong about the future. “While there are a lot of brands and activations that are celebrating the Back to the Future milestone, Toyota stands apart for their nod to the future and the past with the auto technology depicted in the movies,” Bob Gale, the film’s co-creator and producer, said in a press release from the automaker. Rival Ford, which reportedly provided some of the cars in the film, is getting in on the action with a mock video of a “flux capacitor” optional upgrade, supposedly allowing time travel. The video concludes with the written words: “Obviously, this upgrade is not actually available. Happy Back to the Future Day!” And luxury marque Lexus in June revealed its Lexus Hoverboard, harnessing magnetic levitation technology. It has not so far attempted to tie the snazzy-looking device to the hoverboard in the film, despite the uncanny similarities. Meanwhile, Universal Pictures also had a bit of fun with its Jaws 19 mock trailer – Back to the Future included a clip of a cinema showing Jaws 19. Inevitably, lesser-known gadget makers and innovators are also trying to make a name for themselves with some off-the-wall products. California-based firm Hendo is creating a hoverboard which works on magnetic repulsion.

Gusty winds approaching 50 mph at times will keep AccuWeather RealFeel Temperatures in the 30s and 40s during the afternoon hours in many areas, especially on Tuesday. The wind will be strong enough to snap some tree branches and bring down some of the fall foliage too. Isolated power outages cannot be ruled out with the strongest gusts.

If you have liked any of Robert Crais' other books then you're bound to enjoy this one. It's not an Elvis Cole/Joe Pike book but it's still a great read with interesting characters and a fascinating new view - not that of a policeman but of an ex-criminal. Enjoy! Looks great on my Tundra. Wife likes it too. It took me a while to install because my tow hooks were rusting out(northern winter roads). Once I got them out it was an easy install. If you have a front license plate in your state, you will definitely need the bracket. Found one on amazon for about 20.00, easy as pie to install. Bought this to replace a old 2 channel Profile california amp, 16 yrs old and still working fine just ugly and beat up now. I am running the f2.800 off a Kenwwood x494 and hooked up to a old pair of JBL GT1000's in a .88 sealed box. The setup was easy and the new amp works just fine. I do however find the sound is slightly muddy when compared to the old profile amp. This may be fixed once I readjust the low pass filter maybe not. There is no way this puts out advertised power, maybe 100x2 watts but definately not 160x2 unless this is a 90% efficent class A/B amp. For the price this amp is worth 5 stars just don't expect this to live up to it's advertised power rating. :) Great looking jacket that fits nicely. A great addition to my closet. There are plenty of books on the technical aspects of producing most publications, but few on how to run them as a business. This is definitely an exception. It includes some information on producing the book itself but mostly it is about the business: how many copies to print, the true cost of inventory, the print-on-demand services, marketing, discount schedules, pricing, cashflow, and, a point well worth making again and again, how to avoid the danger that "success can kill you". At first I thought much of the advice on business structure, taxes and sales tax, would apply only in the USA, but Peter talks in broad outlines and his warnings on differences between states are equally appropriate to countries, with the general advice applicable anywhere in the world. Ok quality, quite heavy which is nice. Bought them for my wife and she seems pleased with them, looks all kinds of sexy wrapped in them. I wash info white vinegar and little fabric softener. After trying multiple times to get this strap to work for us, its just doesnt. I should have went with the longer option but ended up going shorter. Quality is good but won't be using it since its too short. <div id="video-block-R1UDLYV1OMTPRP" class="a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-mini video-block"></div><input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/E1w5-oaWaCS.mp4" class="video-url"><input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61onhdNT9WS.png" class="video-slate-img-url">&nbsp;Michael Beatty's review was made as part of a critical review assignment for the Spring 2012 Economics of Technology seminar at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, taught by Art Diamond.

the result we secured. And I’m sorry for all those candidates and hard-working party workers who weren’t successful, but also for those colleagues who were MPs and ministers and contributed so much to our country and who lost their seats and who didn’t deserve to lose their seats.” Her explicit apology came after some colleagues were infuriated by an earlier statement in Downing Street that failed to acknowledge the disastrous election result, which many regard as self-inflicted. After returning from Buckingham Palace, where she received the Queen’s blessing to form a government, May had promised to provide “certainty”, and urged her colleagues: “Let’s get to work.” The prime minister received the staunch backing of pro-Brexit MPs, including Brexit secretary David Davis, amid fears that the election result could stall the process of leaving the European Union, with formal talks due to start within 10 days. 'The Tories shored up by the DUP is a grim thought': Guardian readers on the Conservative/DUP union Read more Steve Baker, chair of the influential pro-Brexit European Research Group of backbench MPs, said: “My principal thought is that it’s essential that Conservative MPs support Theresa May as prime minister and make it possible to form the most stable government possible.” But throughout the day, the prime minister faced a growing public backlash from MPs and defeated candidates, who expressed their fury publicly at the way the campaign was run, and the secretive, controlling management style of May’s joint chiefs of staff: Fiona Hill and Nick Timothy. Nicky Morgan, who was sacked as education secretary by May, said: “I’m reeling. I think we’re all reeling. I think there’s real fury against the campaign and the buck stops at the top.” She said it was right for the prime minister to continue in office for the time being, but added: “I think she won’t fight another election – and I think eventually, whether it takes weeks or months, we will have to look at the leadership.” Other MPs speculated openly about the likelihood that May could be forced to call another election within months, as she struggles to govern with a wafer-thin majority, even with the backing of the DUP. Sarah Wollaston, the Conservative MP for Totnes and former chair of the Commons health committee, said: “I do think she should stay on but I wouldn’t be surprised if we end up having another election soon and people will be absolutely appalled by it.” May, who used a threat of a Labour-led “coalition of chaos” as a key attack line during the campaign, will not enter into a formal deal with the DUP but hopes to win its backing on a vote-by-vote basis. She is expected to address parliamentary colleagues next week in a bid to shore up support. Theresa May won’t survive long.

affair. This proof comes in the form of a trashy lavender thong not belonging to her that was consumed by her Lab Kona aka the canine garbage disposal and retrieved from the dog's stomach by her vet. A devastated Maggie confronts her two-timing hubby, her college sweetheart and the only man she's ever loved, and the fallout isn't pretty. She's left alone, devastated and immobilized by her post-breakup grief. With the help of her Smurfs-loving brother, some supportive new friends, and of course, the always faithful and enthusiastic Kona, Maggie starts down a path that she hopes will lead her to happiness and self-actualization. It's not an easy or clear-cut path since she's unsure about what she wants to do with the rest of her life and she has no clue how to date since she hasn't been single in over twenty years, but that's what her pals and Kona are for! They inspire, encourage, and lead by example, and she starts taking her cues from them in an effort to become the new and improved Maggie. I closed this wonderful book with a smile on my face and a tear in my eye, knowing that my new friends, Maggie and Kona, were right where they were supposed to be. Kudos to author Jackie Bouchard for her wit, creativity (I want to attend a Halloween theme party where everyone comes dressed as their favorite artist or painting!), and her fabulous characterizations, including the book's very memorable titular canine. I can't wait to see what other great stories Ms. Bouchard has up her sleeve! I received a copy of What the Dog Ate in exchange for an honest review. awesome, great twist n turns....loved it...new fan! Loved. Loved. Loved this book!!! This one is the worst of the murder club series for me. Luckily all Patterson books are quick, easy reads so it wasn't a complete waste. I don't mind when certain liberties are taken with a story but this was over the top. The civil court case that takes place would never have seen the light of day in real life. No hospital administrator would still have a job if they let this case go to trial!! I also didn't understand the double/triple plot lines....it seemed very forced. The car girls seemed to be filler until the very end when the big under-rated cliff hanger was revealed. All in all as you can see I was quite disappointed. If you're like me and invested in the series I would suggest skipping this one and moving on to the 6th....hopefully it will be better....stay tuned. its a very good contemporany book Originally Posted on IceyBooks Katie Kacvinsky's debut novel, Awaken, portrays a haunting vision of our future through the eyes of a seventeen year old girl.

capacity shortage in vehicular networks. However, effective beam alignment between senders and receivers requires accurate knowledge of the vehicles' position for fast beam steering, which is often impractical to obtain in real time. We address this problem by leveraging the traffic signals regulating vehicular mobility: as an example, we may coordinate beams with red traffic lights, as they correspond to higher vehicle densities and lower speeds. To evaluate our intuition, we propose a tractable, yet accurate, mmwave communication model accounting for both the distance and the heading of vehicles being served. Using such a model, we optimize the beam design and define a low-complexity, heuristic strategy. For increased realism, we consider as reference scenario a large-scale, realworld mobility trace of vehicles in Luxembourg. The results show that our approach closely matches the optimum and always outperforms static beam design based on road topology alone. Remarkably, it also yields better performance than solutions based on real-time mobility information. I. INTRODUCTION High-definition maps, their real-time updates, and on-board multimedia systems are just a few of the applications that make automated vehicles prime consumers of network traffic. Indeed, automotive services -both safety and entertainmentare among the reference use cases for next-generation network technologies, such as C-V2X [1] and 802.11p/ITS-G5 [2]. In spite of the important differences among these technologies, they all share the goal of providing more network capacity to vehicles and drivers. Whenever more capacity is needed, millimeter-wave (mmwave) communications are an appealing option [3]. On the negative side, mmwave frequencies suffer from harsh propagation conditions, with severe attenuation and high blockage probability. Such severe shortcoming has been addressed mainly by two approaches. On the one hand, mobile network operators plan to backup data transfers served by mmwave links by pairing them with lower-frequency links especially to maintain connectivity through low-frequency control channels, so as to cope with the unpredictable changes in realworld scenarios and the high sensitivity of mmwave to the Z.

On the other hand, the design of directional antenna systems, where the available power is concentrated on one or more beams, can significantly help to mitigate the problem [6]. An important trade-off in mmwave communications therefore arises between the directionality gain that can be achieved using beamforming and the spatial coverage that can be offered. This implies that the performance of mmwave networks critically depends on the beam design, i.e., the number, direction, and amplitude of the beams. Successful beam

I've had a lot of dental work, from many different dentists. None of it has ever been "painless." Two root canals (lower corner teeth, canines?). A few extractions. Guess what? Turns out I'm fairly immune to the effects of novocaine. Had a dentist tell me he would have to stop a procedure because he'd already given me the maximum amount of novocaine he could. I told him to go ahead anyway. He did. Everything any dental professional does to my mouth hurts like hell. I've just learned to suck it up. I have a high pain tolerance by the way. I'm no puss. When I chopped my own foot with an axe, I chatted with the ER doc as he fixed me up. He showed me what he was doing, explained everything. Fun times. When I was a teenager, a dog chewed my face. Several hours in the ER with multiple layers of stitches into my face in multiple places. That wasn't too bad at all, really. The last tooth extraction I had, my jaw hurt for several days. I cried as I was driving home. I called the next day to ask if I could get a quick exam to see if there was something wrong. No. They thought I was a "drug seeker" I'm sure. I have no interest in recreational use of pharmaceutical narcotics. When I had a colectomy, I was on my feet 12 hours after the surgery. I weaned myself off of the morphine (freely available) within 24 hours after surgery. I walked out of the hospital 36 hours after the surgery. I know pain. I can handle it.

they had wrongly imprisoned. Especially Harrison and Cisco. "Does anyone else feel that this conversation is awkward while Connor is locked up? I think we should talk more upstairs," Barry offered, and Cisco nodded. Dr. Wells agreed, and Cisco opened the pipeline cell door to release Connor. The boy stepped out carefully, not yet sure what they were going to do to him. He trusted them (sort of), but he was still being cautious. They walked up to the cortex to discuss more. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Upstairs, Cisco and Caitlin sat at their computers while Barry leaned against the desk, and Harrison sat in his wheel chair.....obviously. Connor stood awkwardly, shuffling from foot to foot. "What are your guys' names anyways?" He finally broke the silence. "Oh! I'm Barry!" Barry said, taking off his Flash mask and extending a hand out to Connor. "Secret identity," Caitlin coughed, and Barry mumbled 'sorry'. "I'm Dr. Caitlin Snow. It's nice to meet you," Caitlin said with a polite smile. "Cisco Ramon, the most interesting one here might I add," Cisco said enthusiastically. "Dr. Harrison Wells," Harrison said. _Always the formal one._ Connor thought. _I'm not too sure about him._ "Would you mind if I took a few tests, Connor?" Caitlin asked, breaking Connor out of his state of mind. "Why not?" Connor shrugged. Twenty minutes later, Connor still sat on a stool with multiple wires attached to his head. "Unbelievable," Caitlin muttered, looking at the test results on the computer. "What?" Barry asked. "It says that Connor's visual functions should be inactive. Apparently his sight was never developed," Caitlin replied. "He should be blind," Barry mumbled. "Oh....right," Connor said, rubbing the back of his neck. Everyone looked over to him, and he said nothing. Instead, he just detached the wires from his head and carefully set them down on top of the worktable. "Care to explain, Mr. Owens?" Harrison pressed. "I can see, now at least. But, before the particle accelerator explosion, I hadn't been able to. I was born blind," Connor answered. Everyone was shocked at the news. "Dude," Cisco breathed. "That must be the connection to your metahuman abilities," Barry said. "Meta-whata?" Connor asked. "After the particle accelerator explosion, multiple people were affected in some way. They developed powers, most use them for criminal purposes. But either way, they're called metahumans," Cisco explained. Connor nodded in understanding, not showing any sign of elaborating on his current state. When he noticed the three other people in the room staring at him intently, he realized that that was precisely what they wanted, however. "Um, anyway, the night of the explosion, I was out dining with my real parents. We were driving back when the car was struck with some force, sending it flying off the road. My parents died, but I was taken to the hospital. I just had a few broken bones," Connor paused to take in a shaky breath, and Barry could tell it was hard to talk about. The longer Connor was around, the more Barry was reminded of himself. They're motives and back

and already displayed what looked like Stockholm Syndrome to me. Man... I can't imagine the trauma and difficulty these girls will have from now onwards. It's heartbreaking. I have downloaded 10+ xposed modules and they all really mess up my app drawer. To hide those modules, I have to individually select each and click hide. Which would not have been issue but I test new modules frequently and hiding all of them is really exhausting. So I'm searching for a way to hide those modules at once instead of hiding each. May be there is some module or app that can do that? Help guys. Hi! I have the same desk and I used these two videos to fix the drawer to [1. extend the drawer so I can see/reach all the way back](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7veqmzaYe8k) and [2. to make the front flush with the rest of the table](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMhj3aWYz60). But beware, doing this will void the warranty and make it a bit wobbly (you can't open it properly if you try to slide it open by pulling only the far ends, if that makes sense). For me it's worth the price because now I can use 100% of the drawer and it looks better. I may be wrong but when you use a chemical to dye your urine, that chemical binds with the bacteria in your urine as it passes through the kidneys. Also, some have said that female ejaculation bypasses the kidneys. If both are true then using a dye to tell if it is urine wouldn't work. Either way it is my opinion that it is piss. I am perfectly dine with that. If it feels good, don't let it being piss turn you off. Pee is mostly water anyway unless you are super dehydrated.

But to attempt to give some kind of historical context (which I don't think makes it much better) I think there was also quite a bit of a narrative having to do with the Spanish having ruled the area under King Ferdinand previously leading to tendencies toward a Catholic theocracy, which didn't abate entirely during Mexican independence.

of some staff members of Bahir Dar University and post graduate (MSc) students. Dr. Atakilt Abebe is a full-time associate professor of Inorganic Chemistry at Bahir Dar University. He received B.Sc in Chemistry, M. Sc. and Ph. D in Inorganic Chemistry from Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia. Atakilt Abebe's research group works in the development of metal-based drugs employing heteroaromatic flat molecules as ligands as well as incorporation of phytochemicals with medicinally potent transition metal ions for antibacterial as well as anticancer purposes. Furthermore, the group is working in the synthesis of organic salts aiming for medicinal applications as an alternative to metal-based approaches as well as for extraction purposes. In this category, synthesis of new ionic liquids for electrochemistry and as modulators in the properties of materials isalso carried out. Atakilt Abebe has authored/coauthored more than 21 peer-reviewed originalresearch articles. PUBLIC INTEREST STATEMENT The rapid increase in the number of multidrugresistant pathogens and cellular-based diseases is fast becoming a global concern. Thus, the discovery of novel active compounds against new targets is a matter of urgency. The conventional approach to address this impulse employing materials originating from wild growing plants and animals has shortened their life span. Apart from studying their attractive chemistry, this problem has initiated the scientific community to consider and investigate transition metal complexes as an alternative solution. This is the first objective of our group. Furthermore, efficient and environmentally friendly applications of newly prepared materials have been the focus of attention of the global community. Thus, investigation and preparation of materials fulfilling this objective is the second objective of the group. Introduction Ionic liquids (ILs) are organic salts which melt below 100°C. ILs demonstrate unique chemical and physical properties which include wide liquidus range, thermal stability and undetectable vapor pressure (Ahrenberg et al., 2016;Shi & Wang, 2016). Unlike traditional organic solvents, therefore, there is no loss of solvent by evaporation that avoids environmental and safety problems. Like all other properties, their dissolving ability and solubility can be tuned by using specific cation and anion combinations. Based on this they can be made to dissolve both organic and inorganic compounds (Mansoor et al., 2016). From this perspective, they are considered as a replacement for conventional organic solvents that are usually volatile, flammable and toxic. Furthermore, they are regarded as alternative reaction media for Green Chemistry (Welton, 2011). These features make them suitable as alternative media in synthesis (Zhu & Hosmane, 2017), separation (Bi et al., 2010), and electrochemistry (Watanabe et al., 2017). However, most ILs are often composed of poorly coordinating ions which made them unsuitable for removal of metal ions by coordination from solutions (Welton, 1999). In analytical chemistry, liquid/liquid extraction of heavy metal ions such as Cd 2+ and Hg 2+ were performed using functionalized imidazolium-based ILs by incorporating thiourea, thioeter, and urea into cations (Han & Row, 2010). The functionalization was done to increase the distribution ratio since charged metal ions are usually insoluble in hydrophobic ILs. Furthermore, organic metal chelators such as dithizone are utilized to decrease the hydrophilicity of the metal ions in liquid/liquid

of the few who knew of it before Loki did, I never once saw him any different nor did anyone else. The same goes for sibling rivalry. Thor being the eldest of the two received opportunities and praise Loki did not. While I could go on about that I know for a fact Thor is doing his absolute best in trying to amend their relationship given the current state of everything. But it is all the same. Loki is still a prince of this kingdom and the nine and we should all still recognize that. “In regards to New York, there is no way that was the action of a free-minded Loki. He was tortured and mind-controlled. Manipulated by a titan to do his dirty work. Midgard would have been exposed again to our life sooner or later as with the rest of the universe. He gave them a wake-up call that they most certainly needed. If Loki had been of a free mind, his attack not only would have been more strategic and sly, but I would argue that he would have won. The plan of attack matches nothing of what he has done before and made little sense with the regard to the weakest and disposable army. He then had to watch his own brother choose a team of Midgardians over him. The crown here had always been dangled right out of grasp. He fell into a bloody abyss and all acted as if that was his own doing. Thor even claimed that Loki was acting far out of his personality here and that his eyes had changed colors. I know it isn’t the largest detail, but they matched the same color of others who were being manipulated by the mind stone. What I am trying to get at is that the charges laid in front of him on the New York attack should be dropped without question and that we subject him to proper treatment and psychological analysis. But there is still something we are all dancing around.” Someone from the far end of the table grumbled something about “this ranting bitch”, but the king in his rage yelled at him to shut up. Alethea was already far deeper than Odin could have imagined, there was no going back now. “Go. on.” Drift nodded. "I'm sure I'll manage," he said lightly, because for all that he felt slightly naked without his kibble, it was more the unexpected benefit of not having to face the crew just yet that made him welcome the prospect of remaining in medibay. Ratchet, however, seemed more troubled, as though even with all he'd done thus far it wasn't enough. "I should have gone after you," he said finally, the medic's browridge creasing under his helm, gaze locked on the edge of Drift's circuit slab. "I should have gone after you way before this. The moment I knew it wasn't your fault." "No, no. Ratchet. Please." Drift reached out, hand hovering in the space between them, before finding the medic's hand curled hard on the

world. We know you could do that too, Taylor! Taylor has always been a romantic, but she’s never quite found a guy worthy of her amazing talents (or her $40 million legs). With Calvin, Taylor seems to be experiencing a happy and healthy relationship with a man who loves and respects her. He’s even taking care of her cats — you have to love that! Is newfound love with a great guy like Calvin sparking her desire for a future family? We don’t blame her! Taylor once said that she believed she’d be single until she turned 30. We really don’t think that’s going to be the case any longer. HollywoodLifers, are you excited that Taylor might have kids? Tell us in the comments and take our poll! — Samantha Wilson Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., sponsored a plan that would have given lawmakers 30 legislative days to review any internet transition deal. (Bill Clark/CQ Roll Call File Photo) (First published in CQ News on Sept. 22, 2016.) Some of the top Republican lawmakers who pushed to delay a long-planned transition of internet oversight, which will give an international group of stakeholders control over the web’s address system, weren’t always so wary of the hand-over. The chairmen of the Commerce committees, John Thune of South Dakota and Fred Upton of Michigan, are among those raising questions about the handoff — a Commerce Department agency currently oversees the address system — even though they previously supported a bill that would have given Congress time to review the transition agreement, but not require lawmakers’ approval. The measures were never signed into law, but the Commerce Department agency responsible for the transition gave lawmakers time to review the deal anyway. The squabble comes over a National Telecommunications and Information Administration plan to relinquish its internet oversight role at the end of this month. The agency holds a contract with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, a private nonprofit group that runs the domain name system, which assigns web addresses. Control of that contract would go to the international group. Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz argues the handoff would amount to giving away the internet to authoritarian regimes, a characterization the Obama administration and the tech industry contests. Cruz wanted to delay the transition in the stopgap spending bill pending in Congress, but GOP leaders decided not to include it. Thune and Upton, meanwhile, signed a Sept. 8 letter to the Obama administration asking that it “reconsider” going forward with the transition. By contrast, in June 2015, Upton was among those who voted for a bill that would have given lawmakers 30 legislative days to review any transition deal and require confirmation from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration that the plan would maintain a free and open internet. It passed the House 378-25. [Why Ted Cruz Might Influence a Government Funding Battle] An identical Senate version by Thune breezed through the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee two days later after the panel, on a 5-19 vote, rejected a Cruz amendment that would have required
