and reasonably priced seafood is served in quaint restaurants on stilts, called Kelong - overlooking the sea, in street stalls or in posh restaurants.Try the delicious chilli crab, steamed fish, or drunken prawn. The specialty of Bintan is the "Gong Gong" or Pearl conch (Strombus canarium) which can be found only around Bintan and Batam Islands. The huge wet market that is usually teeming with people is definitely worth a visit. It is a true bargains galore for almost everything especially fresh seafood.

Because of its wind and waves at years end, Bintan is also suitable for surfing. For more information please click: www.bintan-resorts.com. Here are seven international class hotels and 5 fantastic golf courses, some of the best in Asia. Two courses are located at Bintan Lagoon Resort, which is world renowned for its exceptionally designed championship 18-hole golf courses. The Jack Nicklaus Sea View Golf course and Ian Baker-Finch Woodlands Golf course, both offering spectacular signature holes, fast greens, undulating fairways and scenic water hazards. Other courses include the Laguna Bintan Golf Club, and one located at the Ria Bintan Resort. The 27 hole Ria Bintan Championship Golf Course was awarded Asia’s Best Golf Course in 2008. On the west coast of Bintan lies the town of Tanjung Pinang, once a quiet town, now the province’s busy capital. Here you can still find quaint houses built on stilts at Senggarang. There are Buddhist temples on Senggarang, including an old temple embraced by the roots of a large banyan tree. Across the Bay, within 15 minutes boat ride from Tanjung Pinang is the small island of Penyengat, once the seat of the Queen of the Johor-Riau kingdom and the place of origin of the fine Malay language, the base for the Indonesian language. Here the Sultan Riau Mosque still stands as testimony to the heydays of the Johor-Riau sultanate. Upon approaching the island, you can see turrets of the yellow mosque peeking above the greenery like a palace in a fairy tale. On Penyengat are the royal tombs of the past Sultans of Riau, while descendents of the Sultan still live on the island until today. Tanjung Pinang serves some of the most delicious seafood. At night a road is closed off and all kinds of food stalls emerge selling sumptuous dishes of chilli crab, steamed

to find on the Internet due to Silicon Image having been purchased by Lattice Semiconductor. (A small 5% market share FPGA vendor struggling against Xilinx and Intel / Altera.) Eventually, I found the last release firmware image on the Internet somewhere, and flashed the image via Windows XP. Now, I am using Silicon Image PATA, but the installation problem persists. Eventually, the issue turned out to be the SSE2 instructions bug of Ubuntu 12.04 installer. So just for the record, VIA PATA device driver is innocent here. Since I had a bad experience of installing Linux 3.19-rc6 kernel over Lubuntu 12.04 (Linux 3.2 kernel) where the mouse (USB or PS/2) will not function, I explored Lubuntu 14.04 as a target environment for drm-openchrome development since Lubuntu 14.04 shipped with Linux 3.13 kernel. Fortunately, this choice was a good one, and I was able to install Linux 3.19-rc6 kernel with drm-openchrome over Lubuntu 14.04. However, I ran into another problem where the Linux kernel will kernel panic during boot. It turns out drm-openchrome appears to require more than 512 MB of RAM for now (I consider this a bug.), and it was crashing due to it requesting too much RAM during boot up. (It was running out of RAM.) I eventually resolved this by putting 1 GB of RAM, but now nothing shows up on the screen on HP Pavilion a800n. I looked at the Xorg.0.log and drm-openchrome is successfully obtaining EDID from the monitor. I struggled with this for several weeks, and made some code updates related to analog VGA RAMDAC, but nothing will display on the screen. After that, I started to look into how OpenChrome DDX UMS code initializes CLE266 and KM400 chipsets, and compared that to how drm-openchrome does it. It appears that James wrote the code from scratch (or VIA Technologies donated some portions of the code prior to James making changes to them) so drm-openchrome was definitely initializing CLE266 and KM400 chipsets differently. That is when I noticed that drm-openchrome had only one way it was calculating the dot clock of the video display engine. It was calculating it in a way that appeared to target only UniChrome Pro (K8M800 chipset) or later devices, and it appeared that the way it was calculating it was quite different from how OpenChrome DDX did it for UniChrome. (i.e., CLE266, KM400, and P4M800 chipsets) OpenChrome DDX UMS code has two routines, one for UniChrome and one for UniChrome Pro or later devices due to changes in how PLL parameters are calculated. It appeared that James did not put in the necessary code to correctly calculate the dot clock for UniChrome family. So I ported the OpenChrome DDX UMS code's UniChrome PLL calculation code to drm-openchrome, and after 3 hours of intense coding work (had to make some changes to the code due to lack of float type variable support), I finally got Lubuntu 14.04 with Linux 3.19-rc6 kernel and drm-openchrome to boot up the very first test I did after adding the UniChrome PLL calculation code. What this means is

they will thrive and live happily ever after, without bothering any humans. Her father was also in the business, but a traditional exterminator and quite a nasty human being. When Katya is hired by a local (and very rich) businessman to eradicate the pests in an estate he constructed (the Nineveh of the title), she is faced with a huge problem. The whole place is uninhabitable due to some very strange bugs. To her surprise, her father was involved before her in this, which is not good news. Good plot, good characters, a very good book from a new to me author. I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. Interesting narrative setting of the classic Grimm story. 3.5 rating Well, let me tell you something about Brooke and Damien's story (it goes as well for Sabrina and Dante's book too), the whole story revolves around a single concept: We have a problem, let's just kiss rather than resolve it, There's a huge misunderstanding, No problem just give me an orgasm and let's pretend nothing happens, World War III, big deal, let's just fuck and it will all go away, you ask Why? it's simple: you're so sexy and hot and beautiful I can't keep my hands off of you, I have no control and my hormones are all over the place That's complete and utter BULL One Word about this book: FRUSTRATING At least 75% of it was!!!! I was looking forward to reading it and imagine my chock and disappointment once I started, both Damien and Brooke were selfish and I just didn't like them, I think Brooke was just too weak when I wanted her to be strong, and when she tried to be strong she was just frustrating!!!! I'm not talk about the story so I'm gonna jump to the End, they had this huge fight cause Damien, and while trying to push her away for her sake cause he's not relationship material due to the shitty childhood he endured, made up this whole relationship with some girl which was a total lie!!!! she kept saying she was through with him forever and they stayed away, miserably may I add, from each other, then one night their friends make this intervention, and he goes after her, I honestly thought she would be a bit reluctant and stand her ground, but all it took was him saying he wanted her for so long, and she jumped his bones: Now That was Stupid This book is a lot lighter when it comes to sex, maybe it's the fact that Brooke is a virgin or that the writer tried to show love more than lust, but either way it didn't work for the book and I still think these two fell in Lust not Love!!!! I just hope the next books are better!!! (I really started regretting reading this Series) My main man Bard, the scruffy chef of iron, finally got himself on the cover of Kuroshitsuji AND he gets a sweet-ass action sequence with some Molotov marmalade cocktails.(!)

All patients with FSGS were from patients with creatinine levels of 1.7 to 4.9 mg/dl (151 to 435 lM/l), heavy proteinuria (3þ by dipstick), and hypertension. The diagnosis of FSGS was made on Periodic acid-Schiff staining in the absence of immunodeposits on electron microscopy. The diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy was based on the presence of diabetes, proteinuria, and the characteristic light microscopy findings.

Our strategy could offer the following features: (1) the formation of Mn:ZnS/ZnS core/ shell QDs resulted in enhancement of the PL intensity with respect to that of bare Mn:ZnS nanocrystals due to the effective elimination of the surface defects; (2) the magnetic nanoparticles were coated with silica, in order to reduce any detrimental effects on the QD PL by the magnetic cores; and (3) both Fe 3 O 4 MPs and Mn:ZnS/ZnS core-shell QDs were encapsulated in silica spheres, and the obtained MPQDs became water soluble. The experimental conditions for the silica coating on the surface of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles, such as the ratio of water to surfactant (R), the amount of ammonia, and the amount of tetraethoxysilane, on the photoluminescence properties of MPQDs were studied. It was found that the silica coating on the surface of Fe 3 O 4 could effectively suppress the interaction between the Fe 3 O 4 and the QDs under the most optimal parameters, and the emission intensity of MPQDs showed a maximum. The bifunctional MPQDs prepared under the most optimal parameters have a typical diameter of 35 nm and a saturation magnetization of 4.35 emu/g at room temperature and exhibit strong photoluminescence intensity. Introduction Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have been widely explored as biomedical labeling agents [1][2][3][4]. However, the small-ensemble Stokes shift of intrinsic QDs can cause self-quenching. In addition, experimental results indicated that any leakage of cadmium from the QDs would be toxic and fatal to biological system [5], and cadmium-containing products can be environmentally problematic. Recently, Peng et al. [6][7][8] reported that doped QDs could not only replace cadmium in CdSe QDs with zinc, but also overcome a number of intrinsic disadvantages of undoped QDs emitters, i.e., strong self-quenching caused by their smallensemble Stokes shift (energy difference between absorption spectrum and emission band) [9] and sensitivity to thermal, chemical, and

I'm left with on error on the /// reference path that says file not found. I tried when not behind the corporate proxy and it works flawlessly so I'm pretty certain it's a proxy issue. My problem is that I don't see anyway to specifically add proxy settings in VS Code. I also searched through their docs (https://code.visualstudio.com/Docs/) and don't see anything on network settings in general. My OS network proxy settings are correct as other applications work properly. Am I missing something? A: A workaround that i use: https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/tsd It's a npm package for typescript definitions and with it i can define my coporate proxy in a '.tsdrc' file like this: // .tsdrc { "proxy": "http://<proxy_user>:<proxy_password>@<proxy_url>:<proxy_port>" } The use of terminal/command line in addition to VS Code is a little bit nasty.

JMSTextMessage added a function: getText() that doesn't exist in Message. com.ibm.jms.JMSTextMessage implements javax.jms.Message How can I call that getText() method in my f function? Is there a method / cast that has to be done? Of course that m.getText() will not work because getText() doesn't exist in Message. URLs: JMSTextMessage Message A: If your m object is an instance of JMSTextMessage (you might want to have a instanceof call to check) then you can just cast it and then call the getText method like this: (JMSTextMessage)m).getText() However, you probably don't want to cast it to the actual implementation as this then restricts the portability of your code (i.e. you would have to rewrite your code for Weblogic for example). So it is better to cast your Message object to the javax.jms.TextMessage interface like this: (TextMessage)m).getText() Q: boost python optional raises an error I have the following code: //test.cpp #include <Physical_file.h> #include <boost\python.hpp> using namespace boost::python; using namespace FMS_Physical; BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(python_bridge) { class_<Physical_file, boost::noncopyable>("pf") .def(init<const string&, optional<int, const string&>>()) ; } //Physical_file.h #include <fstream> #include "tools.h" using namespace std; namespace FMS_Physical { class Physical_file { public: fstream filefl; string workingDir; string fileName; int fileSize; block currBlock; block FHBuffer; bool opened; string openMode; /************ functions ************/ Physical_file(void); Physical_file(const string &FileName, int FileSize,const string &Dir = getCurrentPath()); Physical_file(const string &FileName, const string &Type, const string &Dir = getCurrentPath()); ~Physical_file(void); }; } there is some more code, I think it's irrelevant to the question. when I try to compile the code, I get the following error: Error 5 error C2664: 'FMS_Physical::Physical_file::Physical_file(const FMS_Physical::Physical_file

I beat criminals into the ground before they enter Vito’s territory. And sometimes … sometimes I do some super heroics. I wouldn’t have believed it a few months ago. I still don’t believe it sometimes, even now, with the White Canary the media darling of the moment. But it’s nice. Now, I’m not a freak. I’m a superhero, and nothing can stop me now. Still in a slight stupor, he scrambled out of his seat and went around to the other side of the vehicle. Sweat beaded on his brow. _Is Kacchan going to kill me while I’m focused on the roadway? Is he being some alternate-dimension version on nice by letting me drive?_ At this moment he had no clue what was going on inside the villain’s mind. And that _really_ concerned Izuku because again, figuring people out was his _job._ Hands visibly shaking, Izuku slowly pulled the car back onto the road. Eventually his fear started to subside, evaporating away to leave him with a bitter anger towards his own weakness, and within a few minutes of driving and casually glancing out of the rearview mirror, he asked, “Hey, don’t you think there should be more cars out than this?” The stretch of expressway was almost bare save a truck in front of them and some vehicle far behind. Sure, there was definitely an increase in the use of public transportation and the number of lines these days, but this lack of cars was just eerie. “You don’t think the League has started closing down the tolls yet, do you?” Izuku glanced over to see blonde eyebrows pressed together pensively. “If they have then we're gonna have a long ass walk. I’ll deal with that when it comes, which shouldn't be till Nagoya’s limits.” Izuku hummed in response and they sat in silence once more. A prickle at the back of his head tried to keep him aware of the ever present danger sitting next to him, but soon Kacchan’s breathing got heavier and as the road blended together Izuku became more comfortable behind the wheel, randomly counting the intervals between Kacchan’s in-and-outs. The sun started its early winter descent and feelings of hunger and a full bladder came and went; however, the driver was not about to wake the sleeping time-bomb up for such trivial things. He would really rather not be blasted to kingdom come just yet. Twilight became dusk and dusk became darkness. The sky had cleared to reveal a crescent moon, rays of delicate light filtering through crisp winter air and unearthing particles of dust lazily floating by. Stars twinkled above, dancing with vitality to unheard songs and juxtaposing the stillness of the earth. Before Izuku knew it he had been driving for four hours and the pure exhaustion from doing nothing mixed with the relaxing beauty of the night was seeping in. He barely noticed his surroundings become blobs, barely felt a strong arm reach across his chest to grab the steering wheel, barely heard a voice command Izuku to pull over. But he did

The Association Between Functional Movement Screen Scores and Knee Valgus Moments During Unplanned Sidestep Cutting in Netball. IJSPT.functional movement screenknee valgus momentsnetballunplanned sidestep cut BackgroundRegular employment of three-dimensional (3D) motion analyses to assess and monitor knee valgus moments; a contributor to non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury; during unplanned sidestep cutting (USC) is costly and time-consuming. An alternative quick-to-administer assessment tool to infer an athlete's risk for this injury could allow prompt and targeted interventions to mitigate this risk.PurposeThis study investigated whether peak knee valgus moments (KVM) during weight-acceptance phase of an unplanned sidestep cut were correlated with composite and component scores of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS™).Study DesignCross-sectional, CorrelationMethodsThirteen female national-level netballers performed six movements of the FMS™ protocol and three trials of USC. A 3D motion analysis system captured lower limb kinetics and kinematics of each participant's non-dominant leg during USC. Averages of peak KVM across USC trials were calculated and examined for correlations with composite and component scores of the FMS™.ResultsNo correlations were found between FMS™ composite or any of its component scores with peak KVM during USC.ConclusionsThe current FMS™ did not show any correlations with peak KVM during USC on the non-dominant leg. This suggests that the FMS™ has limited utility in screening for non-contact ACL injury risks during USC. INTRODUCTION Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries make up 70% of all ACL injuries, 1 with rapid deceleration, singleleg landing and sidestep-cutting movements being the main contributors. 1,2 Females who display poor neuromuscular control of the lower body when performing these high-risk movements resulting in high knee valgus and knee internal rotation moments that could strain the ACL are 4-6 times more susceptible to ACL injury than males. 3 While several factors combined may incite an ACL injury, 4 high knee valgus moments (KVM) during unplanned sidestep-cutting (USC) can rupture the ACL. 3,5 KVM was reported to predict ACL injuries with 73% specificity, 78% sensitivity and an r 2 of 0.88. 3 Video-based studies have also reported that most ACL ruptures occur during initial foot contact during the weight-acceptance phase of USC when the knee goes into valgus.

show me a different side to a very real co-culture. Always ride your bike to work! The lies of Locke Lamora is an outstanding debut novel. There is a lot to admire in this book, but one of the outstanding characteristics is the world. Camorr is a city brought to life in these pages. It's defining characteristic is a fascinating concept, the alien architecture is easy to visualise and pleasing to imagine. Interwoven through these structures is a society rich with intrigue and politics providing a wonderful setting for the narrative. The story of the Gentlemen Bastards is covered right from their creation as we follow them in two timelines. I loved the way in which Lynch cuts to the childhood experiences of the protagonists in characterful interludes from the main plot. Through these he fleshes out the characters and the world, with information essential to the progression of the main story arc. There is very little to complain about here, I was hooked throughout thanks to the short chapters that often led to me reading "just one more". Consider me sold, I want to be a Gentleman Bastard! Amy Poehler's writing is just as funny and quirky as her performances have always been, and there's so much honesty in what she has to say. She touches on every subject from growing up in Boston, to finding her own way into comedy, to being a working mother to having her eyes opened to the contributions she can make through her charities and Amy Poehler's Smart Girls. A fun and engaging read. www.bettercharactersblog.com This is the second installment in "Sexual Awakenings" series and let me tell you, this Rhys guy is freaking hot!!! I am starting the third novella immediately... Four chapters in and I just feel like it's an absolute chore to read this book. The main character needs to just stop whining. God she's annoying. I cannot finish this book. I just cannot. I love books that show that there is a side to every story. No one is all good or all bad. There is goodness in everyone. We are all made in God's image and He made goodness in all of us. Sisters negotiate post war Japan as they try to help their two younger sisters find husbands. The youngest sister has two prospects but can't get married until all of her elder sisters are married themselves, leading to considerable conflict. An interesting portrait of an evolving Japan. If you like Spencer before you still will. It was my first book from this author and will not be my last. In a world of so many weird, strange levels of book genres, I found this quite bizarre, real and absurd all at the same time. Giving you a lot of insight into mental illnesses and disorders not commonly written about. The story intrigued me and the twist and the end not predictable at all. If you liked Glass Castle and Passing for Normal you should enjoy this. The writing style is also brilliant. Graphic novel about the life of a comic book artist and stay-at-home dad living in

value lies within a surprise factor that brings nothing new to the table. 5/10 Concerning scenery, got to admit that it's excellent. Long history of revolutions in a city full of cultural references that both the young and old will connect with, great landscapes and amazing architecture. Too much water though. 7.8/10 The casting is not great but some secondary characters are well fleshed out, even though plain. The protagonist underperforms in a role that already didn't promise much though, feeling like a last-minute rushed addition. 4/10 A solid film overall, but it won't become a classic of the genre. I give it a score of 1/55. Thanks. Yea, fortunately she loaned me something that I won't be able to return to her until next week anyway, since I'm out of town starting tomorrow. So when we meet up for that I'll be a little more upfront about getting together again. I was just venting I guess. Actually it makes most sense for the leaves to be aranged like this than one would initially think. In fact, most plants arrange themselves in a spiral coinciding will numbers from the fibonacci sequence as it is the most efficient way of ensuring every leaf takes in as much sunlight as possible. This given plant has 5 spirals, which is the 4th number of the fibonacci sequence Figured I would add here that it also depends on your neighbors. If you live in an apartment complex that has many 2.4 ghz routers broadcasting, it's going to be congested. You could try changing to a less crowded channel, but the best case is to purchase a high end dual band router, and connect to the 5ghz network if at all possible. I remember me and a friend of mine were on a server that did this, some guy "donated" £50+ to this server and then was later banned. I was a moderator on that server (they clearly thought that 12 year old me wasn't a threat). When they next updated it they gave me OP so I gave my password to my friend (who knows JavaScript and a whole list of ways to fuck up a Minecraft server) and went to bed. Next morning the server was down. It never came back up. Moral: don't be a cunt and steal people's money I have a TP9SF, my shooting buddy has a VP9, and I've shot a PPQ, so I'm familiar with the more popular quality polymer-framed striker-fired guns.

You might need to make your logo a png if it overlays the content of the site in any places Q: How to get straight As in math courses? Might get closed for being "off topic" but I was hoping to create a discussion on this. I was wondering what strategies that work well for the smart people of the math stack exchange. To start off I'll list off things that I've tried and worked for me Attend Classes Professors are lazy. They suggest readings, but they probably haven't read the book, they likely read the contents and said "this roughly is what we'll cover" then assigns it. Getting good grades is know the material and knowing the prof. If you know what the prof thinks is important for students to take away from the course they'll probably test on that. Space Out Your Studying The brain works a lot like muscles. If you train for a marathon for 2 weeks by the time the marathon comes around your body will be too fatigued from training that you'll feel like death. Anyone training for a marathon knows you have to do months of prep. Similar with school, classes are a marathon. Use Route Memory to your Advantage Humans are creates of habit. I was making a lot of errors calculating Chinese Remainder Theorem related problems till I found a cool method online that uses a table. Creating a system that reduces error and gets you the right answer even when you do it mindlessly will help especially during exams while sleep deprived. Find Errors in your Mental Model A model is a representation of a system in your mind. If anyone's read Daniel Coyle's work or Anders Ericssons work in attaining expertise then you know that the best forms of improving are ones that make you very aware of errors you're making. That's why I love Math Stack Exchange lots of smart people who can look over your work and tell you where you went wrong. Talking over with peers or your prof are good too, but I love Math Stack Exchange cause you get a lot of opinions. Quality over Quantity There was a statistical study showing that past a certain amount of time studying there was no improvement in grade after X number of hours of studying. I'm not going to put down a amount of hours you gotta study to get a decent grade and after that there's no point. The amount obviously varies between courses, but Cal Newport claims "Work accomplished = (focus)*(time)." Unfortunately that means no running movies while studying. I'd love for others to contribute to this what has worked for them.

he's real dangerous. Jay's dream scenario disappears fast and with it Katrina and Luci. In trouble deep, Jay has got to find them or a payout from Trans/Oxana to Paradigm studios will be in the mail. The pace, fast, furious and funny, the author of Jail Coach, Hillary Bell Locke has created an engaging, quick-thinking protagonist in Jay Davidovich. Exciting action, smart, funny dialogue in a plot that just doesn't stop, makes Jail Coach a fun read about an industry that will do whatever it takes to make a profit. Only one quibble: The interaction between Jay and his separated, loopy, Ukranian wife which I found predictable and a touch boring. Note to Ms. Locke: Jay could do better; he's a spunky guy. My dogs love it and I know they are getting a top quality dog food that gives them what they need! I like being able to remove some of the dividers. This is a great product and easy to put together. Shoot at with a couple of different calibers (mostly 9mm). We have had a ton of fun with it. My only critique is the bolts and nuts used to attach the gong aren't super high quality and have come unscrewed a couple of times while shooting. I recently took a round-trip airplane flight to Raleigh/Durham and used my new bag in my trip. Just the right size for bringing along a couple of books/crosswords, my medications, a few documents, travel alarm clock, and few other personal odds and ends. Fits easily under seat during take-off and landing time on airplane, and I felt like I was traveling in style! Many compartments for different things. I would recommend anyone, male or female, to purchase this bag. A classic. Michael Keaton - what an actor, seriously! The precision and sharpness of edges are okay, but not the best. The whole things feels a little cheap, but on the other hand it has held up to a year of use, so maybe it's in my head. The colors are pretty cool, where each of the four quadrants has its own color and lines transition smoothly between. If I could give this piece a no star or negative star I would. It is such a waste of money I understand that it is very cheap. But I expected more than what I recieved. The description states cloth, fabric it is made out of cheap plastic. Extremely disappointed. And would not recomend to anyone EASY to install Absolute hit for my nearly 4-year-old son. We gave this to him for Christmas and its been the most played with toy.

Now there was young Deboon from Boston, who was a very learned man. He was in fact one of those fearfully learned men. He was a man who could talk in all tongues--and think in none. Perhaps he had sometime been a waiter. I am bound to say that the most dreadfully learned young men I have ever met are the waiters in the Continental hotels. Besides that he was very handsome. He was, indeed, almost as handsome as a French barber, or a first-class steward. Another thing that helped to defeat him in this hurried election was his love of animals and his dislike of hard work. The handsome fellow stood for election this day with a bushy-tailed squirrel frisking on his shoulder, and a pair of pink-eyed white mice peeping out like a handkerchief from the pocket of his red shirt. Then there was Chipper Charley--smart enough, and a man, too, who had read at least a dozen books; but the Forks didn't want him for an Alcalde any more than it did Deboon.

If SS mesh, any tutorials on working with that? Thank you, man! You saved me a lot of time. I read the book once and it highly resonated with me. I wanted to read it again and take some notes (usually I'll do it already on my first read) but was too busy with other projects. Now I can read your summary and can focus on internalizing the advice given better. It will depend on the TV. For instance, you can cast to a Roku, so you should be able to cast to a Roku TV with the right OS. It may also be dependent on how well the apps have integrated casting.

Considering these resources could better go to other necessary food items. &gt;Say you want to produce x amount of toothpaste and y amount of toilet paper. If you can specify how much one toothpaste and one toilet paper requires qua inputs, then you can use an input-output table to find out how much of the inputs you need to produce a given amount of toothpaste and toilet paper. Again, we won't have mass commodity production for the sake of profit. Each local council will determine how much of what their community needs, and it will go to the national council to then be set into the economy. Why do you think so little of the working class that you believe they are incapable of being able to do this? You don't need a bunch of equations to sort things out, you need local planning and coordination which goes to the top. &gt;If you have to do this for millions of goods, then the resulting system of equations becomes quite large. It's not one person for millions of goods. We are talking all the workers for specific goods. &gt;It wasn't because of shitty economists. I actually remarked how it was quite remarkable of them to be able to plan the soviet economy with the tools they had at the time. I know you'd love to see state capitalism again, but that's not a workers state. One day my father brought me his PC to fix it. I accidentaly found a folder with some male gay porn. The few pics I saw was just regular stuff, naked muscular men. I quickly closed it, didn't really check to see it there was anything nastier. I never mentioned to him, don't really

Loki had known that Tom would not be able to resist, and as he admired the red mark he had left on the man’s neck he could already feel Tom’s hard-on throbbing against his own hipbone. The man’s pleas to stop certainly were not serious. Not that he would have, anyway._ *** Tom sighed deeply as Loki started to slide his hand up and down his growing erection, making astonishingly good use of the confined space within his trousers. “Sshh. Trust me, Thomas. You are mine tonight, and I want to make sure that you are aware of it.” With each downward move, Loki’s fingers grazed Tom’s balls, making them contract pleasantly before he moved upwards again to circle the head, swirling pre-cum around the swollen tip. There was no need any more to pull Tom’s head backwards. He kept it in that position himself, eyes closed with lust, teeth biting down on his lower lip, brow furrowed in concentration at his approaching orgasm. Loki brought his mouth close to Tom’s ear, the god’s breath cold and moist on his skin, but not unpleasant. Quite the contrary. With the last strokes on his erection Loki licked at the soft skin behind Tom’s ear, whispering “Now come for me, Thomas”, breathing heavily himself as Tom found his release, his come shooting in hot streaks over Loki’s hand and into his trousers while he bit his hand to suppress a scream. With a last soft bite on Tom’s jawline Loki removed his hand from Tom’s trousers and cleaned them both up with a little flick of his fingers. In certain moments being a god definitely had its advantages. Tom arranged his suit again and made sure that Loki’s love bite was well hidden underneath his collar. Straightening his back he enquired: “How do I look?” Loki smirked. “Not as good as myself, but rather presentable, I would say.” “Well. Thank you. That was… a nice distraction between all the work.” Tom started to walk towards the grand staircase, but turned around once more. “Please make sure nobody sees you tonight. This would cause quite some confusion, what with Loki being suddenly real and everything.” “Don’t you worry, Thomas. Everything will be all right. I have my means.” Tom walked downstairs, putting on his best smile, as cameras started flashing and reporters shouting questions at him. Quickly he was immersed in his own world again, answering questions and talking about his work – the encounter with Loki secretly remembered by the pleasant hot glow of the love bite on his neck. His smile froze for a moment as Tom saw Loki descending the flight of steps, cane in his hand, looking absolutely god-like in spite of the worldly attire. He walked past, unnoticed by everybody else, looking intently at Tom, his velvety voice echoing inside the man’s head: “You are mine. I will be with you. Forever.” **Author's Note:** > This one-shot was inspired by a particular gifset on tumblr. You can find it here: http://USER.tumblr.com/post/33237916248/loki-please-not-here-came-his-weak “NO!

your problem. It would be helpful if you printed out the working version after it is formatted. My best guess is that @FirmIDString` has commas and spaces between the ids. If so, then this should work: WHERE CHARINDEX(', ' + CAST(firmID as varchar(30)) + ', ', ', ' + @FirmIDString + ', ') > 0 Q: Most efficient way to create a list of dictionaries in Python Suppose I have a list of objects and for each of these objects I want to create a dictionary and put all the dictionaries I generated in a list. What I am doing is the following: def f(x): some function f that returns a dictionary given x list_of_dict = [] xlist = [x1, x2, ..., xN] for x in xlist: list_of_dict.append(f(x)) I am wondering whether there is a more efficient (faster) way to create a list of dictionaries than the one I am proposing. Thank you. A: Since you are dealing with HTTP requests (which is not obvious from your question), the rest of the answer is irrelevant: communications will dominate the computations by a sheer margin. I'll leave the answer here, anyway. The original approach seems to be the slowest: In [20]: %%timeit ...: list_of_dict = [] ...: for x in xlist: ...: list_of_dict.append(f(x)) ...: 13.5 µs ± 39.3 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each) Mapping is the best way to go: In [21]: %timeit list(map(f,xlist)) 8.45 µs ± 17 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each) List comprehension is somewhere in the middle: In [22]: %timeit [f(x) for x in xlist] 10.2 µs ± 22.8 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each) Q: Set a Date field with Rules? I have a form that users can fill out and it creates a node, an event node to be shown in the community calendar of my website. I'm using Rules to create the new node when the "Webform: After a webform has been submitted" event (requires Webform Rules module). Everything is working well except for the Date field. The event node needs a date and time, that's kinda the point of a calendar! I can select the webform data with [data:date-value] and [data:time-value] and I know that they output the correct data because if I put them into a regular text field ([entity-created:body:value]) the date and time show up just fine. And I can use PHP if I need to: <?php echo $data['components']['date']['value'][0] ; ?> I just don't know what Data Selector to choose for the date field. There's several that Rules knows about but so far I have no luck: entity-created:field-date if I choose this, in the resulting page to set the new value, there is no PHP Evaluation or Replacement Patterns available to use, only the Data Selector ajax dropdown, which doesn't allow for the [data:date-value]. and it says "Data types: Select data of the type List<struct>." entity-created:field-date:0 - it goes from 0 to 3 although there's only 1 date field for the

am a bit scared by telling others of today's news again from Navhind Times that John is replaced by Luisinho Faleiro. I am keeping my fingers crossed whether these today's news from Navhind Times are concrete or not? Probably I think that I should wait for an another day to ascertain the facts before telling the public. What kind of disgusting newspapers we have in Goa when we cannot trust such important news? And how many news comes from these local newspapers whether they are genuine or not? The newspapers should restrict printing false news and they should make sure before printing them , otherwise Goans will loose interest reading these papers. These Editors most of the times take politicians for a ride and that the public is been put in confuse minds and we believe whatever they write. I remember that my colleague Dr. Joe D'Sousa once told me never write soon in the papers after reading the news, because they can be wrong sometimes, and wait for few days and then write. I am a quick writer and most of the time I have fallen in trouble and that's why some Editors do not like me. Now, these papers who published false news needs to clarify or else people will loose interest reading these papers. I was put in shame with the garage owner who told me that I am a liar.

I used kernel and XenARM both are from Xen Wiki(http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARM_with_Virtualization_Extensions/Arndale). It (seems) stopped after "(XEN) Freed 212kB init memory" message. When I changed serial input to Xen ('ctrl-a' 3 times) and dump state, it show we are in Undefined processor mode or sometimes in Abort mode.

I've searched a fair bit for info on this an so far can only seem to find references to running XFree86 with dual head support when there are multiple video cards installed - there seems to be nothing about support for a video card with two outputs.

fear and mercy into the hearts’ of our enemies, not hate and anger. The Inner Sanctum wasn’t interested in killing all the assassins, just it’s leaders who continued the war effort with us. With their leaders dead, the remaining assassins could make peace with us. We needed to promote unity among the populace, then we could control the world’s governments, and then have world peace and learn to survive together. I took position behind a weapons crate, I would kill Hastings with a shot to the head. I drew my rifle, an engineered modern prototype of Shay Cormac’s air rifle. Shay Cormac wielded his rifle to bring justice to the assassins, I would do the same. I heard voices and saw figures coming out of a truck and trailer. The figure in the middle came forward, his face was covered by a hood he wore. “Take positions men, I’ve led Aidan Lynch here. He’s too close to sniffing us out, irish dog. ‘Aidan Lynch? Who’s that.’ “Nighthawk,” an assassin said to the ringleader, “Our contact is here.” I looked at the approaching sports car slowing down at the entrance. A figure opened the door, he was clad in a hood and jacket. “Is everything ready?” Nighthawk asked the stranger. “Yes,” the man in the trench coat answered, “I’ve tipped Master Berg that Shaun Hastings would be here. The Greyhood is on his way here to his death. With him out of the way, I’ll have Berg severed of any contact with my Inner Sanctum, and I’ll kill him and his daughter.” My eyes widened, the Inner Sanctum wanted Berg dead?!?! No one kills my Master, the one that spared my life, gave me the respect I craved. ‘Don’t give into your hate,’ Berg’s words wring in my head. I sheath my rifle, I had to understand more of what was happening here. I was expected here, and another man. “Excellent Joker,” the one called ‘nighthawk’ spoke, “ We’ll kill that irish assassin and that templar enforcer for good. Does Berg know about the memory your took from Shay Cormac’s file?” Joker chuckled, “Berg doesn’t even know that such memory was even filed. “I swiped it from the abstergo employee manually, the researching himself doesn't even know it existed. I took advantage of the virus you planted, and was able to download the memory manually. Berg’s in the dark.” “Good, our ancestors had a plan to undermine both templars and Assassins,” Nighthawk spoke, “Now with the location of the Cube of Eden that Cormac found and hid, we’ll control the entire populace through radio wave impulses, we’ll have the entire world to bow to us!” ‘Cube of Eden? Who are these guys?’ I wondered. There were too many targets in the room to kill, and for all I knew, Berg and his daughter were in danger. I could kill these two, but what would stop their acolytes from finishing what they started? Me and this Aidan would die, and then Berg would think Hastings killed me, and my master would be so busy

further, Hope this helps. Q: pgfplots: Error bars ignore missing data My data source contains lines with unplottable data. More precisely, the comma separated file reads like this for a few lines at the beginning: 0.0 , , , , , , , , , 0.05, , , , , , , , , 0.1 , , , , , , , , , 0.15, , , , , , , , , 0.2 , , , , , , , , , If I draw a diagram from this data, the data points (cirles) corresponding to these values, 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2, are missing as they should. However, the error bars are drawn in the wrong places. They should be missing for the same x values, and present for 0.25≤x≤1 (just like the points). Instead, they are instead drawn for 0.0≤x≤0.75. The error bars are shifted to the left by the number of empty rows in the data. How can I get the error bars to still correspond to their data, even in the face of unplottable data in the input file? Sidenote: Also the bars’ y position is off, but that can be fixed by specifying a y axis range of ymin=0, ymax=1 explicitly. I’ve left it out to make the example more minimal. Also the image looks cropped here, but that is not the problem, either, as the graph is trimmed to contain only the area in which plottable data occurs, namely 0.25 ≤ x ≤ 1 Expected Output Here is an image of the output I seek to achieve. The circles from the picture above are represented by small horizontal lines in the image below. The image also contains a bar graph and a left-hand ordinate, which are not of concern in this question (no problems with that – I left them out for brevity).Note that there is nothing plotted for x=0.2, neither a bar, nor a value (circle / horizontal line) nor an error bar.

everything. The ending of the story is scary. I cannot stand to fathom the pain and fear that Emma is put though. Carol definitely has a mental illness and the fact that George is choosing not to see any of it is not helping the situation at all. He is such a coward and I hate him, more than Carol actually, because he is so aware yet he doesn't do anything. This book has really opened my eyes to the emotional turmoil that people who have been or are being abuse undergo. I can comprehend why they would want to hide it and how difficult it is for them to share what they are going through or feel with others. I think one of the many reasons is because it empowers people with a knowledge that can be used against them. And also sometimes, not talking about it makes it easier to just pretend that everything is fine. I LOVE Peter Clines - I first came across him with The Fold, then raced to read everything else he's ever written... I love his style - it's quirky and well-plotted, with great characterization and a strong, clear voice. This book was obviously one of his, but it felt a little less crisp than the others. Not so much so that I disliked it, not by any means - but it did feel a little more forced at times, with the story development not feeling quite as organic and smooth as I've come to expect from him. I'm a huge fan of time travel/history travel, so I was hooked on the concept from the start. I loved the interplay between Eli and Harry, the concept of the American Dream as an actual physical item, and the way the towns of Sanders and Hourglass became characters in themselves. The Faceless Men are a great concept and made for seriously creepy antagonists. I liked that they were so true to their mission that their role in the book pitched and yawed with the plot development. Generally speaking, I love when characters (or places) develop with the story line like that - it makes the story feel more genuine, since real people shift perspective and attitude in the real world all the time. I did, however, think that Eli's shift from a cheerfully clueless well-meaning tag-a-long to the savior of the day was a little too dramatic to feel entirely plausible. Still, he's a charming character, full of good intentions, and his fumbling Everyman-ness is what made him so endearing. Harry is an absolute delight - spunky and feisty yet still human. In other words, everything I've come to expect from a Clines heroine. The book was a fun, easy, fast read. Yet it somehow still left me feeling a little underwhelmed. Perhaps it's that the resolution came about so tidily and handily. The pacing was pretty even for the vast majority of the book, then all of a sudden things seemed to speed up and race to the finish line in a way that felt more

do mean it now. I mean it completely with you," Harry shared. Severus shook his head. "I know what you want me to say," he said slowly. "You know how I feel. I can't just say that out loud yet." "I told you, you don't need to. Will you at least tell me when you realized you wanted me?" he asked. "I didn't realize it until that night in the dungeons, when you caught me taking those measurements. I was so drawn to you. It was like everything in my body was arguing with itself, screaming how it wasn't right, but yet it was." He propped himself up with his elbows. "Eventually, my heart won out. At least, that's when I knew for sure. I was in denial before that, and I really did try to stop loving you after that, especially after our conversation on New Year's. So, what about you?" Snape stared at him for a long while, his long spidery fingers combing through his hair. Finally, he spoke. "After you came back with Diggory's body, when Bartemius Crouch Jr. took you with him to his office, Albus demanded that I follow you. I didn't know what was wrong, but I felt a pang of fear. At first, I thought it was just a professor protecting his student, even one he despised. Then, when Albus and I walked into his office and I saw him with his wand turned on you, I felt a kind of fury that I had never felt before. That was when I realized that I wanted you. It was sick and wrong; I felt disgusted with myself. I am STILL disgusted with myself…that I lusted after my under-aged student. Yet, I kept my calm for over two years. Those Occlumency lessons – if you had seen some of the other thoughts I was concealing from you-" "No," Harry whispered. "It isn't disgusting. You did it–you waited until I was of age to do anything. Had I not provoked you, you wouldn't had done anything that night, even after I was seventeen. We never would have been together. I would never call you disgusting." "I shouldn't have had those feelings for you," Severus insisted. "They were wrong." ### CHAPTER ONE Shock and surprise was what Steve felt when Bucky suddenly pulled him inside Steve's locker.

US special peace envoy Zalmay Khalilzad previously said he has met with all Afghans involved in the 17-year war. Khalilzad has already held two rounds of talks with the Taliban in Doha. The US media described these talks as “preliminary discussions”, adding that Washington hopes these contacts would pave the way for more substantial talks on a roadmap for peace in Afghanistan. Earlier this month, US President Donald Trump wrote to Prime Minister Khan, seeking his help to bring the Taliban to the table for negotiations. A day later, Khalilzad visited Islamabad where he met the prime minister and Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa, to follow-up on President Trump’s request. The prime minister told reporters in Peshawar on Friday that the US had changed its tune by requesting help instead of saying Islamabad was not doing enough, as US officials have previously insisted. On Saturday, China also pledged to help Afghanistan and Pakistan overcome longstanding suspicions, as officials from the three nations met in Kabul to explore possibilities for engaging the Taliban. The Chinese government’s top diplomat, State Councillor Wang Yi, met the foreign ministers of Afghanistan and Pakistan in Kabul on Saturday to prepare a memorandum of understanding on how to support Afghanistan’s efforts to open talks with the Taliban. “China approves of this, and is willing to provide support and help for Pakistan and Afghanistan to improve their ties,” Wang told reporters after the meeting. Massachusetts will begin issuing driver's licenses that comply with new federal requirements in the fall of 2017, after Gov. Charlie Baker signed a law on Tuesday bringing the state into compliance with the federal REAL ID law. "The security standards and proper federal documentation requirements set out in this bill are imperative as the Registry begins the gradual process of implementation so credential holders may continue to board domestic flights and enter federal buildings in the coming years," Baker said in a statement. Registrar of Motor Vehicles Erin Deveney said drivers will be able to get the new licenses gradually, as their old licenses come up for renewal. "Please do not run to the RMV," Deveney said. "The current driver's license you have, as long as it's a credential in good standing, is still valid." The new licensing requirements are raising concern from some advocates for immigrants, who oppose an amendment included in the new law clarifying that only someone with lawful immigration status can get any kind of driver's license. This means that for the first time, everyone applying for a license in Massachusetts will have to prove they are in the U.S. legally. "The documentation that we accept to meet our current requirements will in many instances help individuals to meet the new requirement, but we will be asking these questions specifically next fall," Deveney said. Licenses with the new design, which will eventually be compatible with REAL ID requirements, are beginning to be produced this week. They will not yet be officially compliant with REAL ID, because the state must still complete technology and security upgrades required by the federal law.

know how to bring a warlock the most romantic gifts," he noted flatly. Yet, despite his teasing, his professional curiosity was piqued. He took the offered book, and moved to take a closer look at it on the kitchen island counter. A musty smell wafted from the pages as he flipped it open, his fingers running gently over the cover's intricately embossed ridges. "Where'd you get this? Was this why you had to leave so early this morning?" Alec came up behind him to look over his shoulder, his nearness causing delightful shivers to run up Magnus' spine. "No, we had reports of mundanes dabbling in things they shouldn't have this morning. This, this we found by a dead warlock at one of their ritual sites. I can't read it, but I thought you might be able to." Magnus made a contemplative sound as he browsed over the meticulously inked notes on the parchment. "I don't know whether to be insulted you think I'm that ancient, or flattered you think so highly of me. But no, this is older than me, it seems. I think I might be able to decipher some of it though with a little research. It's definitely a warlock's spell book. I recognize some of the diagrams. You said the warlock is dead?" He cast a quick look at the handsome profile of his Shadowhunter. Time had worn away the younger man's shyness, and Magnus reveled at the ease with which they now interacted. Alec nodded. "Izzy brought his body back to the Institute for an autopsy." "Hmm, I wonder if I know him. Whoever he was, he was old, which meant he was likely pretty powerful." "Well, you're welcomed to take a look. I don't think Izzy would mind." "I might take you up on that offer. It sounds like something a high warlock should be on top of. Though, you might also want to keep an eye on the humans. Taking down a strong warlock warrants extra caution." Although his presence at the Institute still elicited some censure from a few parties – mainly because of his relationship with a certain Lightwood, he assumed – he was tolerated on a professional level. "And this is–" Magnus paused in his perusal, his hand stilling. Alec leaned in. "What?" "A few pages were ripped out." He traced the jagged pages, puzzled. "It may be nothing. It might've been done centuries ago, but it's something to keep in mind." "I would agree." The younger man placed a kiss on his temple, and rested his chin on Magnus' shoulder. The warlock practically preened at the contact. Six months ago, Alec had skirted around casual touch like it was the plague, but now ... now, he seemed more comfortable in his own skin, and although still reserved in public, he was not so ready to jump out of it when things between them got hotter and heavier. Magnus preferred to think he had been the reason for the change, but realistically, he knew Alex was much stronger emotionally and mentally than

on the comedy. Definitely a must read!! I had difficulty working up a great deal of enthusiasm for this book. To me the plot was enveloped in a mire of other stuff which at times made me feel as if I was wading through treacle trying to get to it. I was bored with the endless meetings at the beginning, which I feel were allowed to remain because of self-indulgence by the author, or the editor. I also didn't find the characters very easy to get to know, apart from the two main protagonists and those immediately around them. There is obviously some message in the fact that the hero is called Jon Bull, and therefore represents the English oppressor - while Gwalia - meaning Wales - is raped by the oppressors (the English.) However, I felt there was a dishonesty in allowing us to think that Jon is white for possibly a good 100 pages. There wasn't a sign that he had any hang-ups at all about being black (during that early period) nor was there any reaction from Gwalia when she first saw him, and I found this difficult to believe. However, I cheered for him when he dealt with a racist aggressor. In fairness it does give us the opportunity to think how the Welsh feel about their relationship with England, and the loss of their language, and I think with some pruning, the main theme of the book might have been allowed to show up more clearly. I thoroughly enjoyed this book...a great vacation read. Jess Walter pulls you in to the storyline through the interesting characters. It kept me reading until I found at how the characters' conflicts were resolved! You have to be a nerd to like this book!! Gretchen has been living in fear since the night someone assaulted her. Phoenix is trying his best not to get himself and his brother, Ari, deported back to El Salvador where life is tough and dangerous. The two met at an ironic yet perfect timing where they both find themselves falling in love with each other. I love how tragically beautiful this story is. They helped and understood each other despite the circumstances. Note: I won this as part of a First Reads Giveaway, and it was an Advanced Reading Copy. This was a really great, and really quick read - I found myself flying through the chapters, dying to hear more about Em and The Big Hoom. There were parts of this book that I just couldn't stop laughing at, and parts where I felt great sadness - all in all, a wonderful read! The sole reason I read this book is because of Sting, I remember Googling years ago the "famous book by Nabokov" and am really glad I finally got around to reading it. However, I kind of wish I had read this book in college while taking a literature class, I'm sure I could have benefited from analyzing this book piece by piece with a group of people and a professor much smarter than I am.

children who were kidnapped by their father. We had been friends for a while before I heard this story and although I believed it, having no reason not to, part of me couldn't fully reconcile how close my friend came to not ever existing. And the man Mary Kelly was traveling to meet in New York, he's the eponym for my friend's dad and they all share his last name, still, and even after marriage. "Professional Kayaker" sounds pretty lame. But You don't expect lava falls while being one. It's sorta like "I'm a lighting technician" but you fix lights on fashion runways and look up models skirts. (I'm not condoning this behavior and I'm not hating on lighting technicians, feminists please don't bring me to tears over this) I put like this, you shouldn´t care what some salty fans,From EU or NA or other region says, have to say, in the end of the day Eu got one team in the semi finals for what the 4º worlds or so, while other regions didn´t. Did they had easy route probably , but who fucking cares, if TSM had that route, Tsm fans (or Na fans in general) would say that there team didn´t deserve or what they have been said?, **No**, They would just be happy that their team or their region got to the semis, the problem was that in this case was a Eu team this time around When I was a kid my dad and I played the story mode for about 2 years before we unlocked minion. I remember is being a big achievement in my young kid mind, you have to beat the story with every character to unlock him. I don't remember if it required a certain difficulty or not but I remember it being challenging enough, especially fighting Warhawk with a character who you don't prefer or isn't well equipped against him. That is overkill, but I like where it is going. A producer that was a developer but moved up, is more like it. Makes sense in any job. A Foreman that has no idea what his workers are doing will probably be terrible. A retail store manager who cant run cash or talk to customers will probably be terrible Nowhere have a expressed support for experimenting on disabled people. (and I’ve also given my strongest reasons why I am against it twice.) &gt;Here are some of my thoughts about mentally disabled: Of course I feel like we should not do sth like that. &gt; I still would say we should not be experimenting on humans like this, basically out of a "slippery slope" concern. However, I do not categorically exclude experimenting on disabled humans because I can think of very very hypothetical circumstances where it would indeed be moral to do so. Imagine the mentally disabled person was also unable to feel pain, the experiment would only entail cutting him in the finger once, and there would be a good chance that the result of the experiment would be to find a cure for all forms

be where ever Q is. Therefore, when Q says "I am here", that statement is true also. In both cases, the statements are true. But they do not conflict, or contradict each other. A sentence that would be a contradiction would be one like, "P is [where ever P is] and P is not [where ever P is]". Crucially, and maybe this is the key, when Q says "I am here", Q's utterance *does not mean* "Q is [where ever Q is] *and therefore* P is not [where ever P is]". Nothing about the meaning of Q's statement has anything to do with P's statement, except that they are composed of the same words. And this is ok because those words are indexicals, which are like variables in algebra. An indexical gets its meaning from context. So as long as the meaning of Q's utterance is not the negation of the meaning of P's utterance, there is no contradiction. by the way, a contradiction is logically false. so the fact that "I am here now" is a priori true means that it cannot be a contradiction. I found it very meh. If I want to play a mobile game, I've still got my 2DS that works fine, and if I want to play a more involved game, I've got my PC and my PS4.

I saw them twice in one day. A festival set at lollapalooza and then they had an afterparty at a pretty small club which wasn't as typical of a festival set with much different music. I had more fun at the after party set because the setting and atmosphere was much better. Just an update, ive had about 50&lt;100 puffs throughout the day and it seems my coil is brown, not burnt but heavily brownish like its soon going to burn out. Is this usual to go through a wick so fast? Ive been using clear and yellowish e liquid. Also there is a few 'pops' when im like 3/4 seconds into a puff, kinda shits me up lmao cause its loud but it gives more flavour. Is this normal or do I need to tweak anything? Bearing in mind this is just a generic cotton that came with the coil, I have some japanese cotton pads ordered that should be better quality.

want Lyddy should feel just _so_ about goin', or not go at all. It ain't like goin' among strangers, though, if it _is_ in a strange land. They're her father's own kin, and if they're any ways like him they're warm-_hearted_ enough, if that's all you want. I guess they'll do what's right by Lyddy when she gets there. And I try to look at it this way: that long before that maple by the gate is red she'll be with her father's own sister; and I for one don't mean to let it worry me." She made search for her handkerchief, and wiped away the tears that fell down her cheeks. "Yes," returned the old man; "and before the leaves are on the ground we shall more'n have got our first letter from her. I declare for't," he added, after a tremulous pause, "I was goin' to say how Lyddy would enjoy readin' it to us! I don't seem to get it rightly into my head that she's goin' away." "It ain't as if Lyddy was leavin' any life behind her that's over and above pleasant," resumed the woman. "She's a good girl, and I never want to see a more uncomplainin'; but I know it's duller and duller here all the while for her, with us two old folks, and no young company; and I d'know as it's been any better the two winters she's taught in the Mill Village. That's what reconciles me, on Lyddy's account, as much as anything. I ain't one to set much store on worldly ambition, and I never was; and I d'know as I care for Lyddy's advancement, as you may call it. I believe that as far forth as true happiness goes she'd be as well off here as there. But I don't say but what she would be more satisfied in the end, and as long as you can't have happiness, in this world, I say you'd better have satisfaction. Is that Josiah Whitman's hearse goin' past?" she asked, rising from her chair, and craning forward to bring her eyes on a level with the window, while she suspended the agitation of the palm-leaf fan which she had not ceased to ply during her talk; she remained a moment with the quiescent fan pressed against her bosom, and then she stepped out of the door, and down the walk to the gate. "Josiah!" she called, while the old man looked and listened at the window. "Who you be'n buryin'?" The man halted his hearse, and answered briefly, "Mirandy Holcomb." "Why, I thought the funeral wa'n't to be till tomorrow! Well, I declare," said the woman, as she reentered the room and sat down again in her rocking-chair, "I didn't ask him whether it was Mr. Goodlow or Mr. Baldwin preached the sermon.

and performance testing is on production infrastructure with production traffic. Don’t waste time building extensive performance labs and staging environments. Experimentation - know how a new feature moves the needle on your KPIs. Avoiding Hotfixes or Code Rollbacks when Problems Happen - both hotfixes and code rollbacks are stressful, take a long time, and lead to more problems than necessary. Instead, turn the feature off or ramp it down. Others have mentioned open source libraries. A good example of a full solution - like Gatekeeper and LiX - is Split. I work for Split. Q: How can I save a string as a file inside a running docker container I use below command to save the string hello as a file in /tmp/a inside the docker container. But it will save hello in my local host dist not the container. How can I save it inside the docker? docker exec -i b76f12ba2740 echo "hello" > /tmp/a A: docker exec -i b76f12ba2740 /bin/bash -c 'echo "hello" > /tmp/a' Q: Elevator Problem (Sample Space) Carefully describe the events $A$, $B$, $A\cup B$, and $A\cap B$ in the following sample space: Six people enter the elevator in the basement of a building with 6 floors. Each states where they will get out. $A$ = {all six get off on the same floor}, $B$ = {exactly five people get off on floor two} From my understanding: $A$ - Everyone says they will get out on a floor $S$ = Everyone gets off at floor {1,2,3,4,5,6} $|S| = 6$ $B$ - Exactly five people get off on floor two $S$ = One person will get off at either floor {1,3,4,5,6} $|S|$ = 5 But as far as calculating $A\cup B$ or $A\cap B$ of the following, I don't quite understand A: There may be more than one sample space that is appropriate for an experiment. We may wish to record only how many people get off at each floor. Then the sample space consists of all sextuples $(x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4,x_5,x_6)$ of non-negative integers that add up to $6$, the total number of people. This would not be my first choice for a sample space. I would call the people U, V, W, X, Y, Z, and record for each person the floor she intends to get off at. The record would be in alphabetical order. So for example $(3,6,3,1,5,4)$ means that U is getting off on floor $3$, V is getting off on $6$, W is getting off on $3$, and so on. So this sample space is the set of all sextuples $(y_1,y_2,y_3,y_4,y_5,y_6)$, where each $y_i$ is an integer between $1$ and $6$. We will use this as the sample space from now on. In terms of this sample space, the event $A$ consists of the ordered sextuples $(1,1,1,1,1,1)$, $(2,2,2,2,2,2)$, and so on up to $(6,6,6,6,6,6)$. You may be expected to write this in set notation. The event $B$ is, in this sample space, more complicated. It consists of all sextuples where five of the entries are $2$ and the sixth is any of $1,3,4,5,6$. One example of

of the project, d-rails is a helper library for using Dojo along side Rails. It provides a Dojo implementation for all of the Rails helpers that would normally generate Prototype/Scriptaculous code so now ajaxifying your Rails application with Dojo is as simple as using the built in support that Rails already provides for Ajax, effects, and drag and drop. Along with this release, d-rails also includes support for the following: - Generating dojo Dijits (along with the appropriate test files) - Generating modules (along with the appropriate test files) - Generating a dojo build profile based on the scripts that currently reside in your application - Rake tasks for creating a dojo build which can easily be added to a capistrano task for deployment I wanted to say a big thank you to all that have helped, especially Jon Moeller and the Dojo Foundation, for providing great ideas and code during GSoC. The project has been a long time coming and I'm stoked to say that it's finally at a point where it can be used. I will be submitting this announcement to Ajaxian within a couple of days to get the word out. In the meantime, if anybody would like to try it out, then follow the instructions in the README (posted on github http://github.com/foobarfighter/d-rails/tree/master). I would love to get some last minute feedback so I can make any bug fixes before the announcement. Cheers! Hi all! My day-job company is in the process of refactoring our in-house-built "middleware" into "something better"(tm). That "middleware" is currently using plain Tomcat as a container and Spring for "component configuration/wiring", publishing its services over SOAP. Due to increased requirements (uptime, clustering, monitoring, ease-of-maintenance, etc), we are looking into a major architecture redesign. Functionally, the "middleware" is a /telco-grade/ piece of software that is used to build services that interface with the (mobile) operator systems (billing, SMSC, positioning information, etc) and provide a user interface over a variety of channels (wap, web, SMS, MMS, etc). As an apache contributor, I would love to use (read: push ;-)) Geronimo as the base-container for this work. However, I'm not too familiar with the internals of Geronimo - so I would like to ask you to give me some feedback about the feasibility of this plan. I've written up my own blue sky vision/ideas for that future container (see attachment). It is lacking in details, but I guess you get some sort of fuzzy feeling about the thing I'm trying to get at :-) The aim could be summarized as: build a container that would be * simple for developer (no EJBs, stick to POJO's as much as possible) * simple for deployer/upgrader (container support for configuration management) * simple for Operations&Maintenance people (container support for monitoring, alarms) * easy to cluster (HA and load-balancing, no state in middle tier) in a reliable way (we have been throwing around the idea of routing all method calls over JMS) I know that everything is possible in the world of software development (given enough time and money :-)) so I

half and see what happens.” As the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported last September, Bryan’s contract does not expire until 2018 (via Wrestling Inc). If Bryan’s comment about a year and a half is accurate, he would likely be free to wrestle for another federation in May or June 2018. The report noted that Bryan’s WWE contract was frozen during his over one-year hiatus from the ring as he tried to recover from concussions. Bryan and his wife, former WWE Women’s Champion Brie Bella, are expecting their first child. PASSION FOR WRESTLING Tuesday’s comments are far from the first — and likely far from the last — time Bryan has teased an in-ring return, even if it’s not in the WWE. After over a year of inactivity, Bryan made several media appearances throughout 2015 and 2016 speaking candidly on his future. “I told [WWE], regardless of them, if they won’t clear me… we’re independent contractors, in theory… and I will wrestle again,” Bryan said on Busted Open in 2015. Bryan, 35, has said on multiple occasions that his personal doctors and several others have cleared him to wrestle. Speaking to ESPN’s Cheat Heat, Bryan explained that WWE held up his return and not the other way around. “The whole problem with this process is getting cleared by the doctors. I’ve been cleared by one doctor in Phoenix, but the WWE doctor is hesitant to clear me. It’s a very complicated situation, that I guess they don’t really want me talking about.” However, it’s WWE’s doctor that refused to clear the former WWE Champion after several evaluations. “The WWE doctor Joe Maroon [is] amazing and highly respected in the concussion field, and if they send me to a third neurologist who’s also highly respected in the concussion field and they say literally no… well, then is it really smart to go against two doctors?” Bryan said to IGN. “I get all fired up… and then I’m like, maybe that’s not the best thing for me and my family going forward.” Bryan has teased potentially working elsewhere, telling the New Paper in Singapore last year that these concussion issues “could be the end of my career in WWE, but I don’t think it will be the end of my career.” Even during the aforementioned initial run-in with The Miz on Talking Smack, Bryan said he would return to the WWE, “if they let me.” Since becoming the SmackDown Live general manager, Bryan has been a focal point of the program but never involved to the point of an in-ring return. Despite saying he’s accepted retirement, Bryan’s dreams still involve him inside a wrestling ring. “A part of my mind hasn’t accepted it. I wake up sometimes with dreams of wrestling,” Bryan said to The Daily World in June 2016. “This literally happened to me [the night before the speech]. I was in Las Vegas and I flew in. I woke up this morning from a dream where I was going to wrestle and I’m not. I have to remind myself at times.” [Featured Image by

Ring signatures and the long view Imagine the Monero blockchain has been around for decades. It is incredibly massive and the total number of outputs far exceeds the rate of new outputs being created. Can obfuscation acquired by the ring signature technique decline to useless levels? In other words, can the rate of recent new possible outputs being included in forthcoming transactions fall to near zero, because the probability of inclusion falls toward zero? The probability of a new output being obscured by x amount of signatures after time t would always fall as the chain extends. Someone on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/7k4lwx/question_longterm_ring_signatures/ mentioned 25% of signatures on new transactions are selected from the last 5 days of blocks. This seems like a fatal flaw, because blockchain analysis can just ignore that 5 day spike and treat subsequent appearances of an output with a lot of significance. Am I misunderstanding something? If this is a problem, the solution seems to simply make output selection a probability distribution decaying from more recent to more distant blocks. Old outputs reappearing would be significant, but observers would have much less confidence than if they could ignore most of their obfuscation. A: This issue is a known problem. A solution is discussed here: https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/1673. A solution hasn't been created yet but the general plan is, as you suggested, to use some kind of probability distrubtion to selected inputs. In the edit in the first message of the above github issue, olarks mentions he is using data from Bitcoin to get a better idea of how transaction are distributed, because we lack that kind of data for Monero. edit based on comments: As pointed out in the comment it appears that this has been implemented. First, it guarentees 1/4 of the fake outputs (min of 1) are selected from a pool of recent outputs using a triangle distribution (code comments says equiprobable distribution, but the code doesn't reflect this). Second, older outputs are then selected from the whole pool of outputs using a triangle distribution Q: Bounding box of an object in an image Matlab I want to get the object's bounding box positions (x, y, width and height) in the image and save it to a text file. As shown in the below image. So if anyone could please advise. The image can be found here A: Assuming you have read the image using imread, this should work: bwImage=~im2bw(img,0.98); %making gray pixels white and (almost) white pixels black bndBox=regionprops(bwImage,'BoundingBox'); bndBox will have top-left corner of the bounding box and its width and height stored in the format [corner_x corner_y width height]. Q: How to learn the first bit of m in padded RSA Consider the following version of padded RSA encryption, where encryption of $m$ is done by setting $m′ = (0^k~||~r~||~00000000~||~m)$ for a random $r$ (of length 8 btyes = 64 bits) and then computing the ciphertext $c = (m′)^e$ (mod $N$). For concreteness, further assume that $N$ is a 1024-bit RSA modulus, and that the scheme only handles 512-bit messages. For the rest of the problem,

The agent supposed it made sense but where even was 'Octo canyon'? Let alone why the two were there. The girl just squinted her eyes shut and rubbed her head, replying as quickly as possible to the old man before slamming her phone back down. Returning to her own position of sinking into her mattress, tossing the blankets over herself with one swift turn of her arm. Allowing fatigue to overcome her at last as the girl swiftly fell asleep on her bed **Author's Note:** > I'm just trying out different things right now, still trying to get to grips with my writing. Im happy to accept any criticism I get really. Something silly with Agent 3 felt like a good way to practice even if i am slow as hell to write at all ^^;; “Suzie wanted photographic evidence of our romantic night out.” He grinned. “Don’t worry, you look just fine.” He couldn’t be bothered to do much to the picture, filter-wise, but he couldn’t help putting a caption on it. _«not the only time he eats cock tonite»_ Joseph snickered as sent the picture. Caesar sighed and shook his head, probably guessing the level of maturity of the caption. “As long as you only send it to Suzie,” he said and resigned to eating. The reply from Suzie was almost instantaneous, another barrage of texts, but Joseph ignored them, switching his phone to silent and pocketing it with a smile. They ate, making comfortable small talk while they were at it, discussing Joseph’s studies, his impending graduation and plans for next year, as well as Caesar’s job, casual nonsense, and even the wedding a bit. Neither of them were too keen on a huge ceremony, so they decided to try and narrow the guest list down to their families and closest friends. Around 50 people, hopefully, absolutely not more than 100. Most of them would be Caesar’s family members anyway. “Your family is insanely large,” Joseph said, leaning back on his chair. He was feeling pleasantly full, his plate practically licked clean. “Yes, you’ve informed me about that before,” said Caesar, wiping his mouth with his napkin and then sighing. The soft smile was back on his face. “I must say, the food here was really good. We should come back sometime.” “Under a bit different circumstances, though,” Joseph said, reaching forward to play with the small, flickering flame of the candle sat between them on the table. Caesar’s eyes flicked towards the flame, and the corner of one twitched, but he didn’t comment on it. “Right. Maybe we can come here on our anniversary,” he said instead. Joseph laughed. “What a lovely idea, darling,” he said, just as Debbie walked up to the table. She paused for a moment, but then pushed forward. “How’s it going over here?” she asked politely. “Are you finished?” “Yes,

Comic Con and SakuraCon this year, I decided something needed to be done. Here’s a video outlining every other event I currently plan to be at in 2015 – though if new events pop up, you’ll want to make sure you’re following me on other social media! Are you going to any of these events? Do you know of any other cool conventions I might not have heard about? Leave me a comment! I’ve been trying my hardest to make it up to you guys lately that I took such a long blogging break by making it really easy to find everything I created in the absence. Between my cosplay news, books I’ve read and videos I’ve posted, I’ve been a busy little bee! Today’s blog post will give you a round up of the most noteworthy videos I’ve made in the last month or so, starting with this GeekGirlCon Candyland video I posted yesterday! I am quite proud of it, and my friends were all such good sports for being involved. I love showcasing the things that make me happy for others, and I think this video did that perfectly. Next was this hilariously exciting Snack Exchange video I filmed with Joe – we had organized a collab of sorts with a couple living in Korea named Evan and Rachel. They sent us a big box of Korean snacks in exchange for a box of American foods they missed from home. We had a BLAST trying everything. Some of it was weird, some was absolutely disgusting… but a lot of it was really great! Thanks again, Evan and Rachel! The last video I want to share with you is my FALL BOOK HAUL! I can’t get enough of books and reading lately and this is my newest stack of stuff to read. I can’t wait to get through many of these, and October has been a big reading month for me. I’m only 2 books away from hitting my 30 book goal for 2014! You can bet I’m gonna raise that goal next year – 30 was easy! I hope you enjoyed my videos, and I’ll be back soon with some more October/Halloween fun! This past weekend was GeekGirlCon up here in Seattle, which is a great little convention centered around being a fun and welcoming community that promotes the role of women in geek culture. While men and boys are welcomed and encouraged to attend, the con itself exists to “celebrate and honor the legacy of women contributing to science and technology; comics, arts, and literature; and game play and game design by connecting geeky women world-wide.” I hadn’t been in a couple of years and it was such a treat to see how much it’s grown in that time. While I attending a number of amazing panels (Working with Worbla & Women and the Horror Fandom, to name a couple) my favorite part of the weekend was cosplaying. This was my third official cosplaying event and I was so pumped to rewear and old costume and try out a

and new households are forming, important factors in housing construction and remodeling spending. Worries about housing spending have dented shares of the stock, which now trade at a 20% discount to their peak. Home Depot's business model was battle-tested in the great financial crisis a decade ago, and though profits dipped, the retailer remained solidly profitable throughout the crisis. And while other retailers may succumb to the threat of convenient online stores, it seems unlikely that the USPS will deliver water heaters and 20-foot long PVC pipes straight to your door any time soon. PARIS (Reuters) - Greece’s debt crisis is the biggest credibility test the euro zone has faced since the single currency was created. At stake is whether the 16 countries that share the European Union’s currency can make a wayward member with a weak economy take drastic measures to cut its budget deficit without calling in the International Monetary Fund or sparking a social revolt. This will involve an unprecedented level of EU tutelage over a sovereign state’s finances, but without the IMF’s leverage of disbursing or withholding loans in tranches. Europe’s policy instruments are blunter and would be economically harmful to apply. Unless Athens takes swift action to slash spending and raise revenue, it risks costly EU sanctions and further downgrades by credit ratings agencies that would sharply raise its borrowing costs and deepen its economic recession. EU officials say Greece has only itself to blame. The country cheated its way into the euro in 2001 by fiddling its statistics and failed to curb its budget shortfall in the boom years. It will have the highest debt level as a proportion of economic output in the euro zone this year. Years of concealment led to last October’s admission by the newly elected Socialist government that the 2009 deficit would be a stunning 12.7 percent of gross domestic product, more than twice the level forecast by its conservative predecessor. “Because of the history, there is not much sympathy out there for Greece,” said an European Commission official involved in the drive to enforce fiscal discipline. “There is a very strong determination to apply the rules.” Prime Minister George Papandreou has promised to bring the deficit down to the EU ceiling of 3 percent of GDP in 2012, starting with a giant cut of four percentage points this year. But financial markets and many EU officials don’t believe he can achieve that based on budget plans announced so far and are pressuring Athens to make deeper spending cuts. The government is due to submit a new three-year fiscal plan to the European Commission this month and EU finance ministers are likely to issue a virtual ultimatum in mid-February giving Greece four months to take corrective action or face sanctions. Papandreou has so far rejected market pressure to cut public sector wages and pensions, which he fears would trigger social unrest in a country with a tradition of violent protest. The government has said it will propose a pensions reform to parliament in April and a corrective budget if needed. Euro

implies bias. A rumor that Kawhi is autistic would damage his career. It's pretty much impossible to stop rumors entirely in this day and age, so now for the rest of his life there will be people who think he's autistic and spread that false information. If it were against the agreed upon rules, I would absolutely be against it. If I were more emotionally invested in a competition (e.g. my brother was a fighter) I would be so blindly biased that I would be against everything the opponent did. As it stands now, though, fighters are little more than strangers to me. I'm not genuinely interested in their well-being outside of a major detriment to the sport (death in the ring). Steroid use, as it exists now, is not a big problem for the advancement of MMA, so I'm complacent (I like football and baseball, too.). I'm against it to the point that I think it is cheating, like head-butting or eye-gouging, but I don't really care about the dangers it may or may not pose to the players. I'm a Zen main and I never looked at his reload as a sort of centering himself for further meditation thing. I just never really thought about it. This just made me like him more. Also, Roadhog's reload is great. He really doesn't care too much about what's going on. Just cram a bunch of crap in the gun and kill someone. I lived in Vancouver for 15 years. It is impossible to buy a house for most people, even with combined incomes, even if you’re willing to commute. Even East Van tear down dumps are at least a million dollars. Why move somewhere that you can’t get ahead. Canada is a beautiful place, whether immigrating is an option or not, keep looking for a more suitable location to settle. Virtually all large scale mining is performed close to cheap renewable power sources.

true opponent of totalitarian kitsch is the person who asks questions. A question is like a knife that slices through the stage backdrop and gives us a look at what lies hidden behind it." "And so on and so forth. Before we are forgotten, we will be turned into kitsch. Kitsch is the stopover between being and oblivion." "We can never establish with certainty what part of our relations with others is the result of our emotions-love, antipathy, charity, or malice-and what part is predetermined by the constant power play among individuals." "Perhaps all the questions we ask of love, to measure, test, probe, and save it, have the additional effect of cutting it short. Perhaps the reason we are unable to love is that we yearn to be loved, that is, we demand something (love) from our partner instead of delivering ourselves up to him demand-free and asking for nothing but his company." "And therein lies he whole of man's plight. Human time does not turn in a circle; it runs ahead in a straight line. That is why man cannot be happy: happiness is the longing for repetition." There are several flaws regarding historical facts that make this story impossible. It's fiction, but maybe way too much. There are also the linguistic flaws. I listened to the audio book in Portuguese, so I didn't know if Hitler was really called Fury or if it was the reader who couldn't pronounce Fuhrer. Same for Auschwitz. I understand why the author did this literarily. I was already half-way through the book when I understood the Fury was Hitler and not Bruno's father random superior, and this gave me a "OMG" moment. It was only when Gretel corrected Bruno that I noticed Out-With (translated as Haja Vista in Portuguese) was Auschwitz, and it was another "aahhh" moment. This was really interesting for the reader, but it would be an impossible mistake, considering Bruno is supposed to speak German and not English. But if you forget your criticism you will enjoy the story. I like how he doesn't say directly what's happening and you just have to notice the insinuations. And I like the way he says everybody is the same. That is an universal message, a message that has not been learned yet. Very well written, honest, and real. I'd recommend it to anyone who is in recovery or wants to know more about alcoholism and alcoholics. She's fairly gung-ho on Alcoholics Anonymous, but most people are who find a solution there. It's very sad to know that another addiction, smoking, contributed to her death at such a young age, and so we are robbed of reading about her experiences in later sobriety. I first chose this book two years ago for an AP English Language assignment, thinking it would be an easy read with minimal meanings; something that I could easily write an essay on. I was way in over my head. Of course I was intrigued by the book when I first picked it out, especially since it's based on actual historical events.

I have collections of art, memorabilia and eclectic finds. I collect vintage Dr. Seuss. He's one of my idols, not solely as an artist, but from his strides to overcome adversity, think outside the box and reinvent the publishing, art and authorship fields. My favorite quote is "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go." One of my Dr. Seuss collectables. 7) Your recent work has a lot of "texture" and "nostalgia" to it. Is that what style fits your personality? I like to envision my art as if it's a nostalgic memory incarnate. I didn't grow up in a Nuclear Family so, it's not from my memories but the perception I have of other's memories. My imagery hints at the campy advertising, art and marketing that was prevalent during my childhood. By channeling that period, I'm working towards re-capturing the simplicity, the optimism and charm of those theme filled sub cultures of days gone by. When something is nostalgic, it comforts and reminds us of better times or fond memories. In using textures and various patinas I'm taking my contemporary pieces and lending them some of that nostalgic charm. I wouldn't say my personality is nostalgic, I would think of it being more contemporary or forward thinking. I'm driven by "what's next", tomorrow and the future. I guess that sounds like a contradiction, but then again I enjoy being an enigma, it makes things interesting. 8) Do you have any decorating tips for customers whom buy your pieces?Great question! I receive a lot of wonderful emails and phone calls from customers that have purchased my art. I'm honored to help them. The questions range from wall color choices to fabric matching and about purchasing coordinating props and one of a kind items I feature in my room designs. A quick tip would be to avoid being overly matchy matchy. Too often we define our living spaces with a narrow color palette and feel we must stick to it in order to show "style". I design most of my art to encompass a broad spectrum of colors and variety within so it coordinates with a vast number of paint choices. If you look closely at some of my work you'll see a broad spectrum from pure saturated color to antiqued, subdued and mixed hues. The more variation in color, I believe, creates more charm and intrigue. The same holds true for interiors. 9) Where would you like to see your art career going in the next 10 years?It is my hope that my work will continue to be welcomed and licensed into a growing variety of categories. There are so many products to design for and create, it's mind boggling to try and narrow ideas down to just a few favorites. Of course I'd be continuing on my path painting. I'd love to be creating in 3 dimensions and realizing

hybrid. Hybrids are pretty much what they sound like: a combination of sativa and indica. NYC Diesel is a good example of a hybrid (so is Sour Diesel - one of my favorites). It's sativa dominant, but you'll still get some of the mellowing effect from the indica in there. The taste is unique, too. Hybrids are usually really nice, but generally it can be difficult finding an "accurate" hybrid, or strain in general. What I mean is this: I've been to collectives where they've had OGs listed as sativas. That doesn't work. Anything listed as "OG xxxx" is implied that it's been crossed with OG Kush, which is an indica, which means at the most it can be a hybrid. I've also seen NYC D listed as a sativa, when Soma Seeds themselves label it a hybrid. But now I'm rambling, so I'll end there. edit #2: Here's a good picture of an indica vs sativa. http://imgur.com/n7QA7 The indica has tightly packed, dense buds where the sativa (the Haze) is more straggly-looking, although I can guarantee the effects are awesome. Couple of points to factor into your equation. * The Dome of the Rock is in the attack area. Miss your target and you just vaporized MAJOR holy land.

Reporting shipments for the first quarter of 2014, IDC said that Lenovo achieved a 17.7% share of the global PC market, showing 10.5% growth over the same period last year. Gartner, meanwhile, said that Lenovo's market share stood at 16.9%, showing 11% year-on-year growth. Gartner said that, on the whole worldwide PC shipments declined by 1.7% during Q1 2014, however it added that the market was beginning to show signs of improvement as the impact of tablet PCs begins to fade. Gartner remarked that HP and Dell also managed to grow their businesses in Q1 2014, posting growth of 4.1% and 9% respectively. Gartner said that the end of Microsoft support of Windows XP had eased the decline of PC shipments in the first quarter. Company Articles "All regions indicated a positive effect since the end of XP support stimulated the PC refresh of XP systems. Professional desktops, in particular, showed strength in the quarter," said Mikako Kitagawa, principal analyst at Gartner. "Among key countries, Japan was greatly affected by the end of XP support, registering a 35 percent year-over-year increase in PC shipments. The growth was also boosted by sales tax change. We expect the impact of XP migration worldwide to continue throughout 2014." However, the research firm cautioned that the PC market continues to be tough for many vendors, as economies of scale continue to play a large part in profitability. The high-volume, low-profit nature of the market was forcing some vendors, such as Sony, out, Gartner said. Thanks for watching Larry King Now on Ora.tv!

Were there also similiar types of events in prior years not connected to the SOC in the U.S.?

relevance of the question is not limited to all musicians, and questions like that are often extremely localized and not worth very much to the community. There was in fact a "Music Fans" SE in Commitment phase on Area51.SE up until a few hours ago when it was closed after two years without enough traction for a beta launch. That intended to cover some meta-musical questions like what you're asking about. One of our other moderators Matthew Read has an excellent post on the difference between the proposed Music Fans site and our existing music.SE in area51 discussion. Followup: The subdomain of this website does not determine its content--the site definition back on area51, and now, the FAQ and subsequent community discussion here on meta does. As Matthew notes in the post linked above, the purpose of excluding listeners alone is to make sure the pool of expertise accurately mirrors the questions intended for the site. The site launched based on definitions of musical practice and performance at its core. "Music Appreciation" did not gain enough traction to launch. At present, I do not believe there is enough reason to extend our scope to include that topic. I want this site to get off the ground with a formal launch as much as anybody, but I think if we simply expand the scope to gain volume, we will lose on quality, both in terms of the community on the whole, and the questions and answers themselves. Note that when I say "Stack Exchange for musicians, about music", I don't intend to imply that you are not one! It's simply a reminder that if you look at us through the lens of that particular subset of your skills, the limitations on the site's scope might make more sense. I would actually be very interested if you could provide specific examples of questions that you think should be within our scope--the ones you suggested in your other post were too vague for me to digest properly. If we have something more concrete and specific, we can better analyze if it's a good match for a site on the SE network--keeping in mind that some questions just aren't a good match for the SE model, and some topics just don't have enough of an internet user base to launch an SE site! Q: Does Java create create object even if it's not initialized directly? If I initialize String array directly like this String[] Distro = Distros.split(","); then it'll create an object because variable Distro is holding the array. But If I do it this way then it'll also create an object? String Distros = "CentOS,RHEL,Debian,Ubuntu"; for (String s : Distros.split(",")) { System.out.println(s); } My goal is to reduce object creation to minimize garbage. A: The method split(delimiter) returns string array from the string based on the delimiter, what you did create the string array in for each and the scope of it ended after for each so It's eligible for GC to release it String Distros = "CentOS,RHEL,Debian,Ubuntu"; for (String s : Distros.split(",")) { System.out.println(s);

forming DAG combines, but will be generally more useful on targets that support it since it is OK to form without non-default -fp-contract modes. This would also be associated with a minor change to the description of the llvm.fmuladd intrinsic. The fmuladd intrinsic currently has what I think are poorly worded semantics for how it should behave: "...is equivalent to the expression a * b + c, except that rounding will not be performed between the multiplication and addition steps if the code generator fuses the operations. Fusion is not guaranteed, even if the target platform supports it." This is odd because it doesn't guarantee fusion, but if fusion does happen, the intermediate rounding is eliminated. This is an odd constraint to put on the backend that in my reading doesn't allow ever forming a mad with the same intermediate rounding. This is not helpful since the fmuladd intrinsic expands to the fmul and fadd in SelectionDAGBuilder unless fp-contraction is globally enabled. According to this constraint, you could never form a mad because if it was expanded from the fmuladd intrinsic, fusion is not allowed. I don't think this arbitrary constraint on the backend makes sense, so the semantics of fmuladd would be changed to mean that the intermediate rounding may or may not happen, but not constrain the backend on only fusing if the intermediate rounding is eliminated. -Matt The attached patch clarifies (or, rather, makes explicit) to readers how to handle memory management for char pointers returned by libpq functions. Although the sections on PQfinish(), PQclear() and PQfreemem() give an indication that all pointers returned by functions point to memory allocated in the underlying library, I thought it would be useful to make this clear. Gavin The rule I use in valfendi to detect ntc, nts, ndj, and ndz also detects ntj, ntz, ndc, and nds. (t and d differ by a bit, as do c and s, and j and z.

He looks away and doesn’t bother a response, planting his chin in his hand as he watches the clouds shift in the mild morning sky. Yagi can take that for whatever he wants it to be. ‘In two weeks time we’ll be hosting the event we’ve all been waiting for!’ Shouta’s attention turns half-heartedly to their homeroom teacher. He’s a meek man, with loose red hair and a nose that’s permanently turned up as a result of his quirk. ‘Of course, it’s late this year because of the renovations,’ he trails off, the same disregard for staying on topic as always. It bugs Shouta, and he turns away again. ‘But the new and improved arena will allow us to expand our list of potential events, so it’ll be even more fun!’ There are cheers from around the classroom as he finally says the magic words, and Shouta buries his head to block out some of the noise.

Science aside, I just couldn't care about the characters - the two main parts seeming so ethereal. It also might not have helped this book that I was reading The Fault in Our Stars at the same time, quite possibly the most sincerely moving novel I have ever read, which may have caused me to be less patient with this book than I might otherwise have been.

Fortunately, Cecil has a sense of humor; just as fortunately, the two hit it off well. Implausible, but cute. 4 stars. 3) Her Father's Daughter: A young woman wants to have the father that she's only met once come to her wedding. I couldn't relate to this one at ALL. I couldn't figure out why a man that Sara barely knew was of any importance to her, much less why she was so determined to have him at her wedding that she swore she'd call off the marriage if he couldn't be there. And of course everything ends in a rather treacly manner, with Sara's mother and father reuniting after a couple of decades as if nothing had happened. Riiiiight. Far too silly, sentimental and unrealistic to suit me. 1 star. 4) Jane's Baby: Two sisters, one a spinster, one a widow, battle over who gets to take care of Camilla Jane (as the spinster calls her) or Barbara Jane (as the widow calls her). Camilla/Barbara is the baby daughter of a dead friend, and each woman is determined that the child will be hers and hers alone. The widow eventually breaks into her sister's house and kidnaps the baby, yet for some reason the spinster doesn't call the law down on her for this. (If someone kidnapped MY child, I'd call the cops, whether the kidnapper was a relative or not.) The baby's illness and the spinster's skill at healing end up convincing the widow that they should aise the child together, which I guess

about the First Amendment at a congressional hearing. He was born Frank Vincent Zappa in Baltimore, Maryland. Gifted with a keen interest in music from an early age, he became conversant in everything from doo-wop - to which he cast an affectionate nod on the album Cruising With Ruben and the Jets - to the “serious” music of classical composers Bartok and Stravinksky and avant-garde pioneers Varese and Shoenberg. In 1965, Zappa joined the Mothers of Invention (previously the Soul Giants and later, simply the Mothers), who were deliberately and diabolically unconventional. From the way they dressed to the music they played, Zappa intended the Mothers to be provocative, controversial and unafraid of the consequences. He often quoted mentor Edgard Varese’s credo, “The present-day composer refuses to die!” Zappa brought a high degree of compositional sophistication to a genre that had typically taken its cues from the simplistic chord progressions of songs like “Louie, Louie.” At the same time, Zappa freely acknowledged the naive genius of “Louie, Louie” and the unalloyed brilliance of Fifties doo-wop and R&B, even incorporating them into his program material. Zappa greatly extended the range of rock, composing oratorios, symphonic pieces, ballets, digitized extravaganzas for the Synclavier keyboard, and satirical musicals. A brilliant guitar soloist who recruited similarly adventurous musicians, Zappa helped further the art of improvisation in a rock context. Over the years, his ensembles included such notable musicians as keyboardist George Duke and guitarist Steve Vai. Throughout his career, Zappa darkly but humorously depicted a landscape of wasted human enterprise largely driven by Pavlovian desires for consumer goods, sports and sex. His brutal jibes began with the first release by the Mothers of Invention, Freak Out (1966), and continued to the posthumous release of his final recorded work, Civilization Phaze III (1994). He reserved some of his keenest insults for rock journalists, which he once described as “people who can’t write interviewing people who can’t talk for people who can’t read.” But mainly he vented against mindless hedonism and the dumbing down of popular culture. Rock’s foremost satirist tempered his borderline misanthropy with a high regard for human potential and a fierce belief in free speech and the ideal of democracy. Zappa frankly hated much about what America had become in the late 20th century, expressing deep disgust in this couplet from We’re Only In It for the Money’s “Concentration Moon”: “American way, try and explain/Scab of a nation driven insane.” His finest hour as a songwriter/satirist may have been “Brown Shoes Don’t Make It,” a seven-minute suite from a self-described “underground oratorio” that appeared on the second Mothers album, Absolutely Free (1967). In this audacious indictment of the American Dream gone awry, Zappa foresaw coming trends, equating political power with personal immorality (“A world of secret hungers perverting the men who make your laws”), reproving the vapid pastimes of a dim-witted citizenry (“Do your job and do it right/Life’s a ball!/TV tonight), and pointing out the stultifying effects of the corporate state upon the individual (“Be a loyal plastic robot for a world that doesn’t

around :) I have a charging pad on my Nightstand, on my desk, and in the kitchen. I have a charger at work, at home (one spot), and one in my backpack. Same reasoning mostly. I really don't see the benefit of it for me as it's quick and with USB C it really doesn't matter (finally...) how you plug the thing. There are other "geeky" benefits for me: USB OTG which allows to connect to USB Flash Drive, and connecting to the PC in case you want to transfer movies before the gym, for example. Plus (I hear) fast charging only works on cables. Like someone else mentioned here though, maybe that's something you need to have before wondering how you could do without. &gt; * headphone jack Echh... yeah. No, I totally hear you. I don't drive and don't need AUX, and I have a PC at work and at home which I plug into (wired) to listen to music, and on the subway, it's annoying to untangle this wire every time, not to mention you can go flying through the car because you can't hold on and untangle the same time... I think I will be fine with that. Totally don't think I'll miss it, totally think you're right also. &gt; ... for you ;) Here in Germany, not only is the Pixel even more expensive, I'm pretty sure we don't get the same deals or cash back options either. So good for you, but for many people outside of the US, not really. Somehow I end up talking to people from Germany often. Interesting. Anyway, you're totally right, this is a very American point of view. I am interested to hear what works over there and how you guys get phones (via carriers? up front?) maybe that's for another conversation, feel free to PM me about that one. Your opinion really expanded my understanding about the Pixel, especially the screen size. I still disagree ;) but... I understand where you're coming from on most things here. Thanks for the through reply again! According to the Azubu Liquipedia page, 4 of their players have now been removed from the starcraft roster. These 4 players are listed as Violet, Eve, Inca and Top. So what happens now, what do you all think and where do you think these players will go next if anywhere?? Maybe it is best for these players, as Azubu hasnt exactly been getting the best press as of late. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/AZUBU "July 31st, viOlet, Eve, InCa, and TOP are removed from the AZUBU roster." Without any reference to this point last year I don’t know what to think of any number that lacks that comparison. Also I agree with the need for a common requirement for what is a membership that can be counted in these numbers. Imo it should only be season to make it straight forward. I absolutely agree, in a game like this jumping is really stupid, drop-shotting has it's benefits though. I think jumping mainly comes from people who are used to games that it's

is a good buy. Just by having the playset of vial you open yourself to more options of decks in the future like humans, merfolk, or whatever janky and fun creature combo decks you can come up with :) If you can invest in vials, you can make a really decent hatebears/ death &amp; taxes deck. Thalia is also replaceable if you can't get 3 or 4 of her with \[\[Vryn Wingmare\]\] as an budget alternative. Heck later on you can upgrade this deck however you want to in Eldrazi &amp; Taxes or GW taxes and so on. My suggestion is to try and build this deck with Vials and without canopy and see how much it would cost you. Hey there :) We're all plodding along in this grand scheme we like to call life.

humid coastal regions is more an Indian jungle than bush, as Australians understand the word 'bush.' With the soldiers went, of course, the leading civil officials, and the little seaport became semi-deserted, grass grew in the long, wide streets, and the great red-bricked barracks and Government storehouses were left to silence and decay. Nearly twenty years after the breaking up of the settlement as a penal establishment, Lester Wallis and his young wife had settled in the place. He had formerly been in the service of the East India Company, where he had accumulated a small fortune. During a visit to Sydney, he had met and married the daughter of one of the Crown officials, an ex-naval officer, and, loth to return to the trying climate of India, decided to remain in Australia, and enter into pastoral pursuits. For a few thousand pounds he bought a small cattle-station at Port Kooringa, and, in a measure, became the mainstay of the place, for, in addition to cattle-raising, he revived the dying timber industry, and otherwise roused the remaining inhabitants of the little port out of their lethargic indifference. But fifteen years after he came to the place, and when his two boys were fourteen and thirteen years of age respectively, his wife died, after a few hours' illness. The blow was a heavy one, and for the time crushed him. He withdrew himself almost entirely from such society as the place afforded, dismissed most of his servants, and lived for more than a year in seclusion, in the lonely house facing the sea. His affection for his children, however, came to his aid, and did much to assuage his grief. 'Jack, my lad,' he said to the elder boy, one day, as they were riding along the northern beach, 'we must stick to each other always. You and Tom are all I have in the world to love. Had your mother lived, I should have liked to have returned to England and ended my days there. But she is gone, and now I have no desire to leave Australia. We shall stay here, Jack; and you and Tom shall help me till you are both old enough to choose your future.' Jack, a sturdy, square-built youngster, with honest grey eyes, nodded his head. 'I shall never want to leave you and Kooringa, father. I promised mother that before she died. But Tom says he hopes you will let him go to sea when he is old enough.' Mr. Wallis smiled, and then sighed somewhat sadly. 'Time enough to think of that, Jack. But I would rather he thought of something else. 'Tis a poor life and a hard one. But why do you not want to be a sailor?' Jack shook his head. 'I should like to be an explorer--that is, I mean if you would let me. I should like to cross Australia; perhaps I might find Dr. Leichhardt'--and his eyes glistened; 'or else I should like to ride round it from Port Kooringa right up to Cape York, and along the

then laughs!! Im a beginner in reloading and i decided to go with RCBS rock chucker after reading all the good reviews. Im very happy with my decision. U have already reloaded 200 rds of 9mm and 50 of 45acp. Works the was it is supposed to work. Drove from South Jersey to Williamsburg VA and back and it stayed on the windshield securely the entire time. Even the high humidity didn`t cause it to fall off. Well worth the price. What witchcraft is this! This is delicious, and the calories are so low that I can eat the whole thing and not feel too guilty. I'm a gluten, but a happy one now.... This is a totally hokey musical remake of the original black and white movie. I enjoyed it back in the 70's, and I still got a kick out of it. Remember, it's not THE SOUND OF MUSIC, but has lively songs and actors you don't usually see in a musical. The font is about 5-7pt font and is really hard on the eyes. There are also numerous typos. I've encountered at least 10 and I'm only 9 pages into the book This book is dynamic and life changing. I would recommend this book to the world. May God's will be done. My dogs love this product! They spend so much time gnawing on them I've had to replace them a few times! These are very durable and last a long time but do get worn down with constant chewing. I started watching this show and instantly fell in love with it. It's well written and has great actors. I was sad to see this great show come to an end, I will say I didn't care so much for the ending. The hamper is so cute and very spacious. It is a wonderful addition to my sons room! I think this short story collection might be King's best (I haven't read them all). Most of the stories are "good" to "excellent". In case you don't know, 1408 (the story that inspired the movie of the same name) is in this collection and it is one of my favorites. I really enjoyed the short presentation of King for each story (either before or after), it is a great add-on to the book content. Here are some of my favorites I would suggest to read if you don't wanna go through all the book. Autopsy Room 4 : A great humorous short read about a death man who is about to get "autopsied". The thing the guy is not really dead, but partly concious of what happens to him... The Man in the Black Suit : Basic concept of a little boy who meets a weird and scary man in the woods near his home. King at his best !! In the Deathroom : Wow ! Great action-packed thriller. A man on a kind of mission gets interrogated in a room in South America by rude people who want some information he may have. I won't say more, read it for sure ! The Road Virus Heads North :

In IPv4 stack, resolution of link layer (Ethernet) addresses is handled by ARP (Address Resolution Protocol), which works using link layer addresses as packet destinations. When a host issues ARP requests or unsolicited ARP advertisements, those packets are forwarded directly to the broadcast link layer address (which is FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF in Ethernet protocol) and, because of that, are not subject

Members of each side in this conflict open carried firearms at this protest (A legal activity in Virginia), depicted by these self proclaimed AntiFa or these Militia Men wearing shirts with Confederate Flags. Thankfully, Governor McCaulif stated in a NPR interview that no shots were fired during the event, though there are contradictory claims. Skirmish weapons were also on hand, as reported by the Daily Progress (pay wall), and referenced by the New York Mag: “It could have been a lot worse today,” said Charlottesville Police Chief Al Thomas. “The premeditated violence is deplorable.” Both sides came prepared for violence, wearing protective helmets, masks and carrying flags. When violence broke out, many of the flags were stripped from the wood handles and the handles were used as clubs. Both sides brought street medics equipped with bandages and fluids for flushing eyes and skin afflicted with pepper spray. This can be seen here, where the Alt-Right is marching with shields, helmets, and flags; in response, a fight breaks out between Antifa and the front line. Regrettably, who threw the first punch is obscured by the crowd. At another point, the Alt-right regroup, and are commanded back into action, shields and clubs used to batter the crowd. One of the counter protestors, Jacob L. Smith, punched a Reporter Taylor Lorenz from The Hill for taping the events. A New York Times Reporter, Sheryl Gay Stolberg, tweeted: The hard left seemed as hate-filled as alt-right. I saw club-wielding "antifa" beating white nationalists being led out of the park 2/2 This lasted up until the backlash that she was "creating an equivalency." African American individual utilized an improvised flamethrower against a large group of Alt-Right. His story, presented by the Independent, sets the premise that he had attended the protest to heckle the Alt-Right, including claims that a gun was held to his head and a shot was fired at his feet. At a later point during the event, he was involved in an altercation where he used a spray can he found on the ground and a lighter in his pocket to hold off the crowd. This order of events (brandished firearm, discharged firearm, lunging with flag, and employment of improvised flame thrower), are disproved by a video released by the ACLU of Virginia. In this video, the order of events are depicted as: Crowd is moving through Spray starts from can directed towards faces of protestors People walk away from the spray or cover their mouths Spray is lit on fire, directed towards the protestors Protestor A starts waving flag towards fire Protestor B uses racial epithet, attempts to fire a shot: Gun Malfunction (expect no round chambered) Protestor B manipulates slide, chambering round, fires shot into ground before Counter Protestor using improvised Flame thrower Protestor B retreats. Quantity The current dead - injured - missing values for the event are 3 - more than 36 - 0, as reported by Charlottesville Officials. This includes the tragic helicopter crash (2-0-0), the injuries from the vehicular murder (1-19-0), and individual altercations (0-more than 17-0). This

place. Many republicans in these states stayed home because everyone knew who was getting the electoral votes. Heya! I guess some of you know the trick to name your mobile phone hotspot after the hotspot from McDonalds to gain streetpass every 8 hours. I also got one ACNL-streetpass everytime; but then I had 8 villagers and I decided to turn ACNL streetpass off so I don't get a void. Now I already have 10 villagers and turned streetpass on again and I'm using the hotspot again. But now I just get streetpasses, and no ACNL-streetpasses. When I'm meeting a friend who has ACNL, it works; but not the hotspot. Had anyone the same problem and knows how to fix this? Thanks "[In his Istoria dello Studio di Napoli](http://www.museosansevero.it/en/statues-and-anatomical-machines/statues-of-the-virtues/disillusion) (1753-54), Giangiuseppe Origlia rightly defines this statue as “the last and most trying test to which sculpture in marble can aspire”. The reference is naturally to the virtuoso work on the net, which amazed famous eighteenth- and nineteenth-century travellers, and continues to astound tourists today. In this regard, the story goes that – as had already happened to Queirolo years before, when he was working on another statue – the sculptor had to burnish the sculpture with pumice personally, as the craftsmen of the period, though specialised in the burnishing phase, refused to touch the delicate net in case it broke into pieces in their hands."

would definitely be the preferred treatment. However the root cause of resorption isn't 100% understood and targeting a single tooth pharmacologically would probably be quite difficult, so unfortunately at this time NSRCT is the only real treatment that has a decent long term prognosis. External resorption is a different beast that I pray you never have to deal with. The shading is great, and the hands are better than what I can manage, as a suggestion you could try to improve the waist to shoulder ratio (waist should be a bit thiccer) and if you're comfortable with it draw her body slightly turned sideways? (still, up to you, looks great either way and perspective is annoying as hell, I'm still jealous of the hands) Looks decent, but holy shit the sound design is all over the place. So difficult to hear what is going on, and very muddy overall. Edit : Especially when you compare to a project like Overwatch that, while it has an insanely busy soundscape, manages to convey all the most important information at any given moment, and still conserves a ton of sonic character. Neither of us are lawyers, but it sounds like they would after reading that law. "In any action or proceeding to enforce a provision of (long list of laws) the court, in its discretion, may allow the prevailing party, other than the United States, a reasonable attorney’s fee as part of the costs." "Any action" doesn't seem to mean the action had to be completed, but anything they spent money doing. Also under the same page as the legal definition of prevailing party there's this. http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Prevailing+Party "The court explained that to be a prevailing party one does not have to gain a final judgment following a full trial on the merits; rather it is enough that a suit is a causal, necessary, or substantial factor in obtaining the requested result."

challenged how reliable certain data was. The e-mails were stolen from the computer network server of the climate research unit at the University of East Anglia in southeast England, an influential source of climate science, and were posted online last month. The university shut down the server and contacted the police. Million words reviewed The AP studied all the e-mails for context, with five reporters reading and rereading them — about 1 million words in total. One of the most disturbing elements suggests an effort to avoid sharing scientific data with critics skeptical of global warming. It is not clear if any data was destroyed; two U.S. researchers denied it. Timeline of climate science, policyThe e-mails show that several mainstream scientists repeatedly suggested keeping their research materials away from opponents who sought it under American and British public records law. It raises a science ethics question because free access to data is important so others can repeat experiments as part of the scientific method. The University of East Anglia is investigating the blocking of information requests. "I believe none of us should submit to these 'requests,'" declared the university's Keith Briffa in one e-mail. The center's chief, Phil Jones, e-mailed: "Data is covered by all the agreements we sign with people, so I will be hiding behind them." When one skeptic kept filing Freedom of Information Act requests, Jones, who didn't return AP requests for comment, told another scientist, Michael Mann: "You can delete this attachment if you want. Keep this quiet also, but this is the person who is putting FOI requests for all e-mails Keith (Briffa) and Tim (Osborn) have written." Mann, a researcher at Penn State University, told The Associated Press: "I didn't delete any e-mails as Phil asked me to. I don't believe anybody else did." The e-mails also show how professional attacks turned very personal. When former London financial trader Douglas J. Keenan combed through the data used in a 1990 research paper Jones had co-authored, Keenan claimed to have found evidence of fakery by Jones' co-author. Keenan threatened to have the FBI arrest University at Albany scientist Wei-Chyung Wang for fraud. (A university investigation later cleared him of any wrongdoing.) "I do now wish I'd never sent them the data after their FOIA request!" Jones wrote in June 2007. In another case after initially balking on releasing data to a skeptic because it was already public, Lawrence Livermore National Lab scientist Ben Santer wrote that he then opted to release everything the skeptic wanted — and more. Santer said in a telephone interview that he and others are inundated by frivolous requests from skeptics that are designed to "tie-up government-funded scientists." Contempt for contrarians The e-mails also showed a stunning disdain for global warming skeptics. One scientist practically celebrates the news of the death of one critic, saying, "In an odd way this is cheering news!" Another bemoans that the only way to deal with skeptics is "continuing to publish quality work in quality journals (or calling in a Mafia hit.)" And a third scientist said

And they paid no attention to the expansion of his vocabulary, such as when he added the word ‘stop’ to his protesting shouts, not that it ever stopped him from trying. It gave him something to scream that meant more than snarls and whimpers and animalistic barks of pain. It made him feel like he was being heard as more than just some creature despite the fact that he had never found one to ever meet his eyes or respond to his screams and cries. Until they got tired of that too. Deciding that the addition of his vocal chords and translation chip had been a manufacturing mistake. It was in the midst of another cybernetic addition to the creature’s body that their patience had run out. Little to the white-coats’ knowledge, or rather they did know and simply did not have the energy to care, their subject’s pads of hands and feet were more sensitive than they had cared to take into account, especially when the incisions were administered without the use of anesthetics, something they found to be unnecessary as it would make their weapon prone to weakness at the very hint of pain. 1.

functions in the drc library, not nls(). Not only do those functions model binomial or overdispersed binomial data, but they provide estimates and confidence intervals for the EC50 and any other EC, e.g. EC10. However, neither handles x=0 very well. The problem is the way the Weibull function is coded. Instead of x^power, both use exp(power*log(x) ...). The first is defined for x=0, the second is not. A work around is to use a small positive value for x, e.g. 0.01, as you suggest. If there is some background level of x, so experimental dose = 0 is really exposure to a small background concentration, that background concentration is an easily justified replacement for 0. If not, I rerun the analysis with different choices of small positive value. If the low dose asymptote is well determined by the data, you should get similar parameter values and estimated ECx's for any small positive value. This is a robustness check to make sure that an arbitrary choice doesn't affect the results.

Best regards, Brad Lorien Here is a new set of patches for both binutils and GDB that introduce --with-zlib/--without-lib, whose intent it allow someone to a user the dependency on zlib. There is no documentation for now, as I just want to make sure that the option is accepted as is before writing it. Jan Kratochvil has rewritten most of AM_ZLIB in the new config/zlib.m4 file, so I'll make sure to put him on the blame list (aka ChangeLog). Tom: I tried to think about how to integrate ourselves better with GCC's configure option (--with-system-zlib), but I couldn't think of anything nice. I think GCC should have implemented optional in-tree support the way you did for iconv. For now, I'm still proposing --with-zlib unless someone offers a better suggestion, which I am of course willing to implement. Tested on x86_64-linux (--with-zlib, --without-zlib, default). I'd like approval on the binutils side. On the GDB side, I am planning on checking everything in if there are no objections and the binutils part is approved. Thanks, Looks fine to me.

one last hug to Amy before running off. (A few hours later) "We will meet you there, you have Shadow with you?" Rouge listened to the cell phone in her hand. "Good, I'm at Amy's door, we will be there soon." Rouge hung her cell up and placed it into her purse. "Amy?!" Rouge hollered as she went into the house. Amy stood in her kitchen, her suite case was all packed and by the door. She was opened up her fridge and pulled out a lemon flavored vitamin water. "Amy, time to go!" Rouge said. Amy jumped a little and looked at Rouge with relief. "Ok," Amy said as she grabbed her suitcase with her free hand. The two girls walked over to tails workshop. "What are we doing here?" Amy asked looking at Rouge. "Starting a new life with a new memory!" Rouge said. The two walked in, Amy sat her suitcase down and placed her water inside. "Rouge...Amy...what's going on?" Tails asked as he looked at the two. His eyes landed on Amys suite case. "I'm leaving tails...starting a new life..." Amy said looking away. "Where is Sonic?!" Rouge asked. "Right here," He replied as he took a step out." Rouge slapped him across the right cheek. "OW! Hey! What was that for!?" Sonic said while he held his cheek. "That was for Amy! This is for making her cry!" Rouge slapped him across his left cheek. "SHE DESERVED IT!" Sonic yelled looking at Amy. "And THIS is for not listening to her when she was about to ask for help!" Rouge punched Sonic right in the eye. "Come on Amy its time to go," Rouge said as she walked out the door. Sonic watched from the grown as Amy looked at him with a longing to help him, but she just threw her nose up in disgust and grabbed her suite case. As she turned, Sonic grabbed her arm. "Ames wait-" Amy pulled her arm away. "You want me out of your life right?! Then your wish has been granted!" Amy hissed at Sonic, venom dripping from every word that she spoke. Sonic drawn back with shock, He had never seen Amy turn her back on him. He never thought that she would take his words literally. Amy walked out of the workshop, not even taking a glance back. (an hour later) Amy and Rouge took a bus to the beach. There, they were to meet up with Knuckles and Shadow. The four would then go to some resort that knuckles and Rouge owned. Amy rested her head on the glass window. She watched as the city turned into green trees and then into the golden colored sand. As the girls got off the bus, the boys came over. Shadow and Amy looked away as Knuckles and Rouge kissed each other. When the two were finished, they smiled. "Time to go!" Rouge said happily as she and knuckles walked over to a large boat.

of the neurotransmitter serotonin. The objective is to better understand behavioral adaptation in situations of uncertainty and pave the way for the development of strategies to prevent risky behaviour. To illustrate how uncertainty comes into play when making most decisions, Dr. Fanny Cazettes gives the following example : "Imagine you've just moved to a new city and you are looking for a new house. You can choose the first one you visit or wait to know more about the market in the area : what the prices are, which other houses are available, etc. This way, after visiting a few houses, you can make a better and more informed decision. However, the more you wait, the more money you spend on hotels". "There are a lot of examples, from minor to crucial decisions, in which the brain has to ponder the level of risk associated with different options and make the right decision to ensure optimal outcome", Dr. Fanny Cazettes emphasizes. "I want to understand how brain activity guides these kind of decisions, how the different neural circuits work together to form the decision and ultimately take the action," she explains. "One major goal is to decipher why some people are more or less risk prone. This may lead to innovative therapeutic approaches to help those who are incapable of evaluating the risks associated with their behaviour." Exploring how decisions are formed and modulated in the face of uncertainty Dr. Fanny Cazettes' project will focus on two areas of the brain in particular : the prefrontal cortex and the premotor cortex, key regions for complex decision making as they orchestrate thoughts and action. To shed light on the brain's representation of uncertainty and the path to decision-making, Dr. Fanny Cazettes will use cutting edge technology to directly access and monitor the neural activity of mice while they are performing tasks that mimic the decision-making dilemma. "We hypothesize that there exist different neural signatures of uncertainty in the prefrontal areas responsible for outcome prediction and in motor regions involved in action selection", she explains. "We will then explore how serotonin, a neuromodulator implicated in a wide range of risky behaviours, affects representations of uncertainty in the frontal cortical regions". Specifically, Fanny Cazettes and colleagues will monitor serotonin release in the brain to investigate its role in regulating representations of uncertainty. Addictive behaviours, like other psychiatric conditions, are no longer considered to be solely psychological disorders. Scientific research shows that these conditions also originate from cognitive disfunction, causing a person to persist in doing something regardless of the risk. To prevent and treat addiction, a precise understanding of how brain mechanisms affect and are affected by these pathologies is necessary. In this sense, Dr. Fanny Cazettes' research will contribute greatly to finding therapeutical strategies for addictive and risky behaviours, notably involving the use of serotonin, a neuromodulator used in antidepressants.

are you going for? Journal entry: &gt; I suppose I could just skip all of this and call a hooker. There's enough numbers on my phone, from my other life I lived before I met her. Letter: &gt; What the fuck do you mean by never? Never wasn't a word we used when we were together; it was ever, forever and the rest of our lives. And now it's never; well, fuck you. Make a decision and stay consistent. **PACING** I didn't think that it moved too quickly or too slowly. A few paragraphs could have been divided in two, for example: &gt;I suppose I could meet another girl and try to get over this. It's not even that difficult anymore. I don't have to go to the bar next door, catch the eye of some pretty girl sitting there and put on a smile. No, I can just download an app, put up some pictures, write a clever line or two and swipe away. I'll probably match with three or four girls within the hour, and depending on how drunk I am, I can ask one of them to come over. The ugly ones are always desperate, and grateful for the attention. But I'm revulsed by the idea; the idea of having some stranger over, someone who smells different and tastes different. I don't want the pretense right now, the pretense of forced conversation, and pretending like I give a shit. And they're all the same, pretending to be more interesting than they are and trying oh so very hard to be clever. The worst thing is a bimbo who doesn't realize that she is one, and you'd be surprised how tiring they quickly get. This paragraph could be broken at "The ugly ones are always desperate..." **DESCRIPTION** If your goal isn't an angst-y reflective-esque piece, then I'd encourage you to give more information about the girl or the situation that occurred that resulted in this rant. If your goal is to be a bit ambiguous, then you did that well. **Some specific, line by line comments:** &gt;No, I can just download an app, put up some pictures, write a clever line or two and swipe away. In my opinion, if you deleted the word "away", it would punctuate the line a bit more fiercely, to add some "umph" for the effect you're going for. &gt;The ugly ones are always desperate, and grateful for the attention. But I'm **revulsed** by the idea; the idea of having some stranger over, someone who smells different and tastes different. Do you perhaps think "repulsed" would be a better word here? Revulsed could mean what you want, but I believe it more accurately means "pulled away", whereas it seems like you want to say that you have a severe distaste or aversion to the idea. It's up to you. &gt; I don't want the pretense right now, the pretense of forced conversation, and pretending like I give a shit.

The following website is a much cooler way of representing assaults, avian or otherwise http://sanfrancisco.crimespotting.org/#lon=-122.438&hours=0-23&zoom=13&dtend=2009-08-25T13:34:36-07:00&lat=37.760&dtstart=2009-08-14T12:59:49-07:00&types=AA,Mu,Ro,SA,DP,Na,Al,Pr,Th,VT,Va,Bu,Ar You can see attacks by time of day, time of year. regards Neil Hi there, Since I note that the release process for 1.1 seems to have been stalled again, I wonder if there was stuff I could do. I'd be happy to join the RM team to help Apache CouchDB provide more timely releases so that companies like mine can benefit sooner from the latest fruits of the committers. Please let me know how I would go about learning all the stuff I need to know (and hopefully at some point keys to the required infra). Cheers, Dirkjan Hi, During a recent CRAN upload procedure, I was reminded of the following regarding R-devel: o R CMD check now warns on non-ASCII .Rd files without an \encoding field, rather than just on ones that are definitely not from an ISO-8859 encoding. This agrees with the long-standing stipulation in 'Writing R Extensions', and catches some packages with UTF-8 man pages. o R CMD check now warns on DESCRIPTION files with a non-portable Encoding field, or with non-ASCII data and no Encoding field. So if we need UTF-8 encoding for the DESCRIPTION and *.Rd files, would it be sufficient to have an "Encoding: UTF-8" line in the former and a "\encoding{UTF-*}" in the latter? Thanks. Cheers, Hi everybody, I am looking for volunteers to join the Program Management Committee for XenSummit Asia, which will be held Nov 2-3 in Seoul, Korea. As a PMC member you have the following responsibilities * Review submitted topics for the event (we will typically have 3 one hour calls and a bit of homework is needed) * Assist in compiling the final agenda for the event (which means reviewing the agenda compiled by me) * If attending, introduce speakers -- you don't have to Please get in touch with me, if you want to join the PMC. We are aiming to have the first PMC meeting the week of Sept 12th.

conclusions, especially based on a couple of anecdotes. However, a recent column in the New York Times by two left-leaning Finns suggests that the data will not be favorable to universal handouts. The authors start with a basic explanation of the issue. “Universal basic income is generating considerable interest these days, from Bernie Sanders, who says he is ‘absolutely sympathetic’ to the idea, to Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s chief executive, and other tech billionaires. The basic idea behind it is that handing out unconditional cash to all citizens, employed or not, would help reduce poverty and inequality … As a rich country in the European Union, with one of the highest rates of social spending in the world, Finland seemed like an ideal testing ground for a state-of-the-art social welfare experiment. … Kela, the national social-insurance institute, randomly selected 2,000 Finns between 25 and 58 years of age who were already getting some form of unemployment benefits. The subsidies were offered to people who had been unemployed for about one year or more, or who had less than six months of work experience.” But then they denigrate the study. “… the Finnish trial was poorly designed … The trial size was cut to one-fifth of what had originally been proposed, and is now too small to be scientifically viable. Instead of giving free money to everyone, the experiment is handing out, in effect, a form of unconditional unemployment benefits. In other words, there is nothing universal about this version of universal basic income. … The government has made no secret of the fact that its universal basic income experiment isn’t about liberating the poor or fighting inequality. Instead, the trial’s ‘primary goal’ is ‘promoting employment,’ the government explained in a 2016 document proposing the project to Parliament. Meaning: The project was always meant to incentivize people to accept low-paying and low-productivity jobs.” Maybe I’m reading between the lines, but it sounds like they are worried that the results ultimately will show that a basic income discourages labor supply, which reinforces my concerns about the entire concept. Yes, the current system is bad for both poor people and taxpayers. But why would anyone think that we’ll get better results if we give generous handouts to everyone? So if we replace all those handouts with one big universal handout, is there any reason to expect that somehow people will be more likely to find jobs and contribute to the economy? Again, we need to wait another year or two before we have comprehensive data from Finland. But I’m skeptical that we’ll get a favorable outcome. P.S. The Wizard-of-Id parody contains a lot of insight about labor supply and incentives. As does this Chuck Asay cartoon and this Robert Gorrell cartoon. P.P.S. Since I rarely write about Finland, I should point out that it is ranked #20 for economic liberty, only four spots behind the United States (and the country is more pro-market than America when looking at non-fiscal policy factors). P.P.P.S. On the minus side, Finland has decided that broadband access is somehow a human

a good king to all, all through his long reign, and they were sorry that he had to leave them at last. Soon they were all gone except the good Merrymineral, and at last he too went, his whole frame shaking with suppressed sobs; his body seemed powerless with grief, and his limbs seemed to refuse their functions. The King looked after him, carefully noticing whether the door was shut. Then he spoke: ‘My dear daughter,’ he said, ‘when I am gone be kind to every one, and, above all, cherish the Owl—do cherish the Owl—promise me to cherish the Owl.’ ‘But how can I cherish the Owl?’ cried the poor Princess; ‘how can I, unless I know who he is?’ But the King only answered: ‘Dear Ismara, do promise to cherish the Owl!’ And he said nothing else for a long time, until at last the Princess saw that the only way to let him rest in peace was to promise, and she said: ‘I promise, dear father, but still I do wish I knew who or what the Owl is that I am to cherish.’ ‘You will see that in good time,’ answered the King. ‘Now, my dear Ismara, I shall die happy, and you will be safe. If you had not promised—however, we will let that rest unsaid. Now wheel the bed to where I can see out of the window.’ The Princess did as she was told. Now from this you must not imagine that she was a very strong princess—for she was no stronger than most princesses of her age; but the old King, who was a very powerful magician, as I have told you already, made the bed easy for her to move. He might have made it move of its own accord, but he knew that it would please his daughter to be of service to him, and so he let her move it. The view from the window was very fine. A dark wood grew in the foreground, and far away over the tree-tops were the blue hills, behind which the sun was just preparing to retire. And it seemed angry, the sun, for its face was dark and clouded, and its beams smote fiercely on everything, and gilded the tops of the autumn trees with a purer gold than their natural tint. But overhead the clouds spread darkly, and they reached in a black pall to the verge of the horizon, forming a black frame to the red-gold sunset; for only the extreme west was bright with the waning light. The Princess sat on the bed beside the King, and the dying sun lit them both and fell with a ruddy glare on the King’s hard countenance, as if it knew that his work on earth for the day, and for ever, was done. ‘Is it not grand?’ cried the old King, as if the glorious sight warmed his blood again and made him once more young. ‘And is it not grand to think of the power that thou hast, my daughter?

rearranged the original code like this: def foo(val): return val*val def make_foo(val): return lambda : foo(val) flist = [] for i in range(3): flist.append(make_foo(i)) def bar1(): for j in range(3,6): flist.append(lambda : foo(j)) def bar2(): a = lambda n: (lambda:foo(n)) for k in range(6,9): flist.append(a(k)) bar1() bar2() print([f() for f in flist]) Output: [0, 1, 4, 25, 25, 25, 36, 49, 64] Notice how the output has only changed slightly: [4,4,4 -> [0,1,4 The reason is that any lambda is also a closure which means that it closes over its surrounding context, which is the local stack frame. The lambda in make_foo only has the stack frame of the inside of make_foo which only contains val. In the first loop, make_foo is called three times, so each time a different stack frame is created, with val referring to different values. In bar1, as before, there is only one lambda and only one stack frame (bar1 is only called once) and the stack frame, containing j ends up with j referring to the value 5. In bar2, I have explicitly shown that a refers to a single lambda, but that lambda, although it refers to the local stack frame, does not refer to any local variables. During the loop the a lambda is actually called, but that returns another lambda, which, in turn refers to another stack frame. That stack frame is a new one inside a, and each of those stack frames contains and n which, like make_foo, refers to different values. Another important thing to note is that each lambda is stored in flist. Since flist refers to all the lambdas, all the things that they refer to also still exist. This means that all those stack frames still exist, along with any local variables that the stack frames refer to. Q: Convert SQLite select query to string array I have this code public static void GetOnline1() { string query = "SELECT online FROM online"; SQLiteCommand myCommand = new SQLiteCommand(query, myConnection); myConnection.Open(); SQLiteDataReader result = myCommand.ExecuteReader(); if (result.HasRows) { while (result.Read()) { Console.WriteLine(result["online"]); //result["online"] to string array? } } myConnection.Close(); How i can convert result["online"] to a string array? A: Put the results in a List<string>: var onlineList = new List<string>(); if (result.HasRows) { while (result.Read()) { Console.WriteLine(result["online"]); onlineList.Add(result["online"].ToString()); } } If you need it as an array, you can use this: onlineList.ToArray() Q: ActiveMQ Web Console only listens on localhost I've got ActiveMQ installed as I want it. However, the Web Console only listens on localhost - how do I make it listen on all interfaces? I'm sure it's a "host"="0.0.0.0" somewhere but where? A: For the latest versions of ActiveMQ (e.g. 5.5), you can configure within the <activemq>/conf/jetty.xml file by adding a host property setting to the SelectChannelConnector bean. <bean id="Connector" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector"> **<property name="host" value="0.0.0.0"/>** <property name="port" value="8161" /> </bean> Looking at the SelectChannelConnector code, if the host property is not set (i.e. null) then it will use the default for InetSocketAddress, which is supposed to be the "wildcard address" per the JavaDoc, so I'm surprised its not automatically

up being about the people who can give $22,000 checks and we don't talk about that because we talk about the ridiculous already illegal lobbying scandals and not the fact that our entire system is corrupted so in terms of Lies we talk about Donald Trump and his clownish behavior the problem is lies are an everyday corrupting influence and how I got to this point was in 2012 uh I wrote a book about Fox News called the fox effect which meant I watched a lot of Fox News which is kind of hazardous to one's Health there's actually it's funny but there's actually a movie about that out right now Jen senko uh directed a film uh documentary called the brainwashing of my father the brainwashing of my dad that actually shows her father's descent into madness from absorbing conservative media and I actually highly recommend that film but watching Fox News you quickly realize something when you watch a lot of Fox News Fox doesn't invent anything basically what they do is they get two people up there to yell at each other with a host they don't they don't do real journalism business model is let's have two people yell at each other and a right leaning host moderate the debate and that's a good business model but it means that the lies on Fox News aren't created by Fox somebody else has to invent them so after I was done with the fox effect I got obsessed I said who's inventing these lies because I I think of Lies like zombies once a lie comes out it never goes away so if there's a zombie apocalypse there's going to be a patient zero in the zombie apocalypse so I said where where is patient zero who's inventing um death panels who's inventing the idea that more guns equal less crime who who came up with the notion uh when Todd aen in 2012 the Missouri Senator said that uh if a woman has a if a woman is raped she can't get pregnant uh and that cost him a senate campaign but who who came up with that because Todd Ain clearly didn't he said it 100% believing what he was saying was true which is odd that because that means he wasn't actually lying because when you're lying you have intent that's the you can say something that's untrue and you can and you or you lie right he was saying something that was completely untrue and he should have known better but he wasn't lying but there had to be somebody at the source of that and I started looking and what did I find I found on issue after issue after issue over the past seven years there was a small group of people who invented the lies that are specifically designed to distort and disrupt our democracy they these are people who have F like a hacker like a hacker looks at a computer system and says let me find the weakness in

I then read all I could find about spiral dynamics, including the book Fran cites, and have used spiral dynamics to help understand some kinds of of community conflicts ever since. The spiral is a metaphor for different paradigms, with different colors used to help identify (and remember) the characteristics of each. Some authors and advocates use one set of colors for each turn on the spiral; Ken Wilber uses another set of colors. I'm interested in the differences between two of these. One, "green," is identified with the yearning for replacing current mainstream- culture consumeristic, militaristic, "Me Generation" values with sharing, community (including intentional community), environmental responsibility, and what's often called "New Age" ideas and practices. Consensus decision-making, for example, seems to me a perfect example of a green value and practice. Manu identify "green" as a reaction against what's wrong with mainstream Western culture, inspiring, ye t ineffective. The other spiral is sometimes identified as "yellow" and sometimes as "teal." Whichever color one uses, it includes the values and practices of green but adds the value of what I'd characterize as, "The practices that support these values and also work effectively in actual real life?" The N Street Consensus Method, a variation of classic consensus, and two whole-system governance and decision-making methods, Sociocracy and Holacracy, seem to me to be in the "yellow" or "teal" realm. Big conflicts in my community are slowly resolving themselves as more and more of the yellow/ teal values and practices advocated by our younger people are replacing the classic "We are all one" "green" values and practices of our older members. Understanding spiral dynamics helps me feel less baffled, confused, and frustrated by what some of the younger folks here call "Hippie Fundamentalism." It helps me have more compassion and understanding. And hope. ;) Diana Hi Roy If your unit is generating an output as you report, without 5 volts to pin 4, then I'd leave well alone. On the current batches of cheaper units, that do require a 5 volt supply to pin 4, they won't lock or provide an output without it. Removing that 5 volt supply from a unit that's already up and running, on two that I've tested so far anyway, causes it to lose lock and the 10MHz output collapses, which would seem to be a fairly strong indication that on these units it is needed:-) regards Nigel IMO, Life Balance is over-kill and very difficult to get the fuzzy logic to work 100%. If you have not checked out GtD yet ("Getting things done" by David Allen) I would highly reccommend it. There are also several posts that outline peoples shadow implementations of GTD.

Stan and Daphne, was 24 when he died at Hillsborough. Graham’s sister Sue is secretary of the Hillsborough Family Support Group. She told the ECHO: “My dad died in March 2009, just before the 20th anniversary, so he didn’t know any of this was going to happen. “My mum died on February 29, 2012. “Occasionally when I’m at the inquests I’ll hear something and think I’ve got to go home and tell my mum and dad that. Obviously I can’t.” Much of northern Syria, including the Afrin region, is part of the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria (DFNS), which is commonly referred to as Rojava. YPG militias began fighting ISIS and other groups in northern Syria for control of the territory in 2012. The YPG then merged with various Arab, Turkmen, Armenian, and Assyrian militias to form the The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in 2015. The Kurdish militias and SDF are widely considered to be the most effective fighting force against ISIS on the ground. With the help of US airstrikes, they have liberated huge swaths of Syria from the terrorist organization. Kurdish militias in Iraq, who operate independently from those in Syria, were vital in defeating ISIS in their country as well. The SDF proved itself so capable of defeating ISIS that in May of 2017 US President Donald Trump approved a plan to provide weapons to the SDF so it could lead the siege on Raqqa, the Islamic State’s de facto capital at the time. Turkey, which is a member of NATO and a US ally, adamantly protested the decision. Turkey sees the YPG as an extension of the separatist Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) that has been leading a Kurdish insurgency in southeast Turkey since 1984. The PKK is considered a terrorist group by the United States, Turkey, and the European Union. The YPG contends that while they are inspired by the same concepts of communalism and democratic confederalism espoused by the PKK’s imprisoned leader, Abdullah Öcalan, they are independent of the PKK and do not support terrorist activities. SDF, YPG, and YPF flags in Raqqa after its liberation from ISIS. Even though the SDF and YPG are not technically the same entity, distinguishing the two is complicated. YPG units account for roughly half of the SDF’s soldiers and are considered the backbone of its fighting force. The US agreed that the YPG is distinct from the PKK, and has since supplied them with machine guns, ammunition, mortars, anti-tank weapons, armored vehicles, and engineering equipment. The SDF also acquired ops-core helmets and sensitive advanced tech such as night vision goggles, rifle optics, and infrared illuminators used by US special operators, but the Pentagon denied supplying those materials and suggested they were funneled to the SDF by “other means through other sources”. Turkey watched from across the border as the area controlled by the DFNS grew and its Kurdish militias and governing councils consolidated their power. From Turkey’s perspective, this presented the possibility that the semi-autonomous Kurdish state could remain in perpetuity and become a safe haven and source of support

The calm sea, Floating in its magnificence, is seen Like an elysian isle, whose sapphire depths Entranc'd the Arabian poets! In the west, The clouds blend their harmonious pageantry With the descending sun-orb; some appear Like Jove's immortal bird, whose eyes contain'd An essence of its sanctity--and some Seem like proud temples, form'd but to admit The souls of god-like men! Emerald and gold And pink, that softens down the aerial bow, Are interspersed promiscuously, and form A concentration of all lovely things! And far off cities, glittering with the pomp Of spire and pennon, laugh their joyance up In the deep flood of light. Sweet comes the tone Of the touch'd lute from yonder orange bow'rs, And the shrill cymbal pours its elfin spell Into the peasant's being!

Her father, Mr. Meanwell, was for many years a very respectable farmer in the parish of Mouldwell, where Margery was born; but misfortunes, and the cruel persecutions of Sir Timothy Gripe, his landlord, and the rich Farmer Graspall, ruined this worthy man, and was the source of all poor Margery's troubles.

The loss of their parents seemed to endear these orphans more to each other, and they were continually seen strolling hand in hand about the village, as if they were afraid of being separated. They had relations--but as they were rich, they took no notice of these poor children; being ashamed to own such a little ragged girl as Margery, and such a dirty curly-headed

signal, in 8ths of microseconds. Can be up to 65535. // OCR0A: 1 less than the desired period of the faster signal, in microseconds. Can be up to 255. // The on-time of the faster signal is always half of the period. // If necessary, you can trade precision for more range for any of the above values by adjusting the prescaler. } With that sketch, pin 13 on the Mega will have the desired waveform. There's two big advantages to this method. First, it doesn't require any CPU resources at all (no loops or interrupts) once it's set up, so you can dedicate all of loop to reading the potentiometer and adjusting the duty cycle without worrying about glitches in the output. Second, being entirely hardware controlled means its output will be accurate and perfectly consistent (the 500 Hz component is perfect, and the 14 kHz component is approximately 14085 Hz). The one disadvantage, though, is that millis and everything else in the Arduino library that uses timers internally won't work quite right, since we're using the same hardware timers that they depend on. A: Your 14kHz carrier can be generated by the tone() function that is part of the Arduino core. You can then use the TimerOne library to toggle the tone on and off. Here is an untested sample sketch demonstrating the usage: #include <TimerOne.h> const uint8_t outpin=4; void setup() { // put your setup code here, to run once: pinMode(outpin, OUTPUT); Timer1.initialize(1000); // 1000 microseconds per half-cycle Timer1.attachInterrupt(toggleCarrier); } void loop() { // put your main code here, to run repeatedly: } void toggleCarrier() { static uint8_t isPlaying; if (isPlaying) { noTone(outpin); isPlaying=0; } else { tone(outpin, 14000); isPlaying=1; } } Q: Filter SQL with Entity Framework (WHERE) I have a database where some employees are stored with their status I want to only display employees whose value is 1.

group that saves the world? Overall it reads like a beginning. You wonder who these people are and how they got that way, which obviously leads to more issues. I would read more of them, but someone sometime is going to have to tell me what the hell is going on. Even the main character doesn't know, and no one is willing to tell him. That's REALLY annoying. But, it's Grant Morrison. There's beauty in that fax machine. I almost heard it. 3.5/5 Stars! Stadium of Lights is a pretty good sports romance with a second chance romance thing and some smoking sexy times. This is a story of an NFL QB, Max, and Abby, a physical therapist newly hired by his team. Turns out Abby is an old acquaintance from his childhood. He remembers a very different girl than she is now. She remembers the boy she had a crush on but never saw her as more than a friend. Abby is strong and sassy and doesn't let being a woman in a man's world get to her. Max is a cocky football player with a dirty mouth. I think you can figure out where this will go from here. I read Tia's previous release, Draw Play, and really enjoyed it, so I was excited to read this one. Unfortunately, it kind of fell short for me. Let me explain. This one felt a little forced and the writing was a bit more scattered than her first book. The other thing that got me was the lack of attention to details. I am a huge football fan and I know my stuff. So, when in the first chapter, a group of players was sitting on chairs on the side of the field with beers in coolers, my hackles went up. Then she wrote that they were watching the teams cheerleaders practice on the field and discussing who was "doing" whom. I don't mean to harp and I know this is fiction, but that stuff might happen in college ball (it really doesn't), but not in pro ball. The cheerleaders have to sign a no fraternization contract and the players are off limits. Period. Like I said, I get it's fiction, but just a little research could have made this more believable. All in all, it is not a bad sports romance. It has all the right components and has a HEA. It just needed a little more polishing for my liking. I punted this book across the room when I was through with either chapter 7 or chapter 12... I don't remember. All I remember is thinking: "There's no way in hell these characters should be acting this way"- and then I punted. I can satisfyingly say I never finished. :) Looking into this series through the eyes of Adam has left me very confused. In Shatter Me, he seems to be very single minded in his focus to save Juliette. It's as if what he says and what he's thinking doesn't add up. The direction of this novella makes me suspect that

you may feel you have an obligation to abide by the whims of a marketing company that is giving you money (!), I have no such, and so you should not feel yourself under any obligation to delete or censor comments revealing information that you would not want to yourself. These guys contacted me on another tech related forum via PM – I thought it was a scam :S I googled the company and it didnt turn up anything, I didn tinvestigate very thoroughly though. Hrmm might have to reconsider a free $100 for 20 minutes on something I like if its real. I can imagine a marketing campaign around the footage collected with this. I don’t know…for some reason a strict “research” purpose sounds too basic for going all out on getting people paid for video while companies already get feedback through many other means. Of course, this would have to be Microsoft-backed for it to make sense, so it would be a “we answered your demands with Windows 7”-esque marketing campaign. For example, an ad could start with a few short clips with one-liners by different people “I wanted it to start up faster,” “I would like to make home movies,” “Give me the power to control my kids’ PC use,” “Less UAC pop-ups please!,” etc. and then they could be like “Well, we’ve listened, and we present to you Windows 7.” @Albert: That’s exactly what I was thinking. And to be quite honest, I think it’s a fantastic campaign. Would be successful in getting the point across. And if it is that, then it would definitely seem to be the most genuine campaign I can recall from any of the *big guns* in IT. All I really wanna see though… Video clip of forum poster “I just wish someone would shut up that ‘I’m a Mac’ Guy” – I’m a Mac – And I’m a PC. And you asked for this (Ties and Gags the Mac guys and shoves him back in his box) @Pat: I think you have made your point already with your helpful post. Don’t start criticizing others for not feeling the same way as you. Perhaps they either feel it IS in fact worth $100. Or know that signing a piece of paper does not actually take away any basic rights you have. The only thing it would take away is people demanding a marketing salary, or suing for using footage without permission. Since this is solely a Microsoft-based blog, you can’t really deny who is behind this, haha. I hope they put the suggestions into Windows 8. Or maybe even the super-duper top secret oh-my-gosh-don’t-even-whisper-it”Midori Project” that they won’t tell us about. Commissions for personal information – now thats a new concept I don’t think. Free speech never cost anything – not even one’s identity – unless the State discovered who you really were – that could be pricey! Free Speech – Priceless!

a future. It amazes me that a species can imagine that which does not yet exist, and cause it to exist. And what is to imagine--if our near-nonexistence counts as existence, then is imagination real? The time-space continuum is an adventure. What are the chances of anything happening at any given time? Think of all the things anyone in the world could be doing right now. Or think of all the infinite things that could happen to a person at any given time. Now think about how much you're missing and how strange your life is that it turned out this way. I believe I am a product of circumstances and events, rather than the other way around. What a mystery mankind is. Agree with you entirely. It seems to me he tends to vehemently attack his opponents at times without explaining his reasons. This is just my opinion, but it seems that Rollins and other Emergent/Emerging (yes I know there is a debate over the difference) leaders tend to take Biblical concepts and append their own pseudo-mystical/philosophical ideas to them. For example "To undergo the Crucifixion is to experience the breaking apart of the various mythologies we use to construct and make sense of our world. In this way the Crucifixion experience is nothing less than the taking place of the Real". While this may or may not be true, it seems to be a deliberate, ill thought out "statement that makes you think". Pretty burnt out. I don't want to care about this tourney anymore because it takes me the whole day to reach the 1500s from the lower 2000s. Then I sleep and I'm back at square one at the 2000s.

AND, the really frustrating thing about it is that he will use it for a week, get tired of it, not touch it for a month.. then break it out again. That's why I think creating a home for these items may be the way to go. Maybe he will get tired of having to lug it back and forth all the time.

2). The postoperative complications including hematoma, horseness and cough after drinking would also be checked by physicians. The VRR was calculated according to the volume of BTN measured at each follow-up. At the US examination during each follow-up, the diameters of BTN were measured. Volume of a BTN was calculated according to the following formula: Volume (ml) = 0.479 × p × a× b× c (cm) (a stands for the largest diameter of BTN; b and c stands for the other diameters of BTN). VRR was calculated according to the following formula: VRR = (volume measured in previous follow-up − volume measured in this follow-up)/volume measured in previous follow-up × 100%. Patients would fulfil a thyroid QoL questionnaire respectively before ablation and at the 1 st , 3 rd , 6 th , 12 th , and 18 th postoperative month to evaluate patients' satisfaction. The QoL questionnaire was made by Korean Thyroid Association and we translated it into Chinese (12). The QoL questionnaire was composed by 41 items and could be divided into 4 parts, evaluating the total spiritual well-being, total psychological well-being, total social well-being, and total physical well-being respectively. Each item has an item ranging from 0 to 10, resulting in a total score of the questionnaire ranging from 0 to 410. The average QoL score of questionnaires at the 1 st , 3 rd , 6 th , 12 th , and 18 th postoperative month would be calculated. In this way, the two techniques could be compared in terms of preoperative QoL. Patients were also told to return to hospital whenever they had discomforts.

for them to do the right thing and get it here to me that day as it was obviously an issue with the driver. They said that they can't authorise that. I asked for it to be escalated. The next person said that they can't authorise that either. I demanded to talk to a team lead/manager who could authorise it. They said I would get a callback. Surprise, no callback that day and it was delivered the next day. It was obvious I was just being delayed and the callback wasn't going to happen as they would just deliver it the next day. BTW: I work in customer service myself so I know when i'm being messed around and when a company doesn't care. When I was 6-7, back in the late 80's we had just moved to a new place, just Dad &amp; me though as Mom &amp; my sibling had not yet moved here because of my Mom's job in another city. Although it was inside of a military base, there were quite a few civilians that lived/worked in there as help/maids/housekeeping crews, shopkeepers etc. One such civilian teenager about 16 or so followed me from the playground to the temporary quarters Dad &amp; me were living in. It was about 7 PM and the sun had started to set, it was getting dark quickly. The entire quarter mile I walked he kept calling out to me to see his cool watch or something else but I just kept speed walking. I had a creepy feeling and instinctively knew not to go near him. The entire block seemed dark and empty, Dad had a late shift and was going to return by 9PM. Just before I reached the steps of the small apt building, he caught up grabbed my arm and asked me to come to the forest behind the building as he wanted to show me some amazing fruit trees. I pulled my arm and kicked him in the shin and ran up to the 2nd floor to our apt. I screamed..'Daddy it's me open the door!' knowing fully well he was not there. The boy started to climb up the steps and reached just one flight below my floor. I tried to desperately open my door but it seemed to be locked and I had not taken the keys when I ran out to go to the playground. I gathered my wits and ran all the way across the hallway to the other end, passing him as he was trying to race up and reached a family friend's apt which was the only other occupied apt in that building. I knew them well and banged on their door with my little fists.."Aunty it's me, please open quickly!" The boy stood cautiously at the top of the landing watching me for what seemed like hours but was probably only just 30 seconds. Aunty opened the door and I ran in. I didn't tell her anything just said Daddy isn't home yet can I wait here. She gave me cookies

custom problem in the Problems View, the Quick Fix menu item becomes available, but, when I select it, a dialog pops up that says there is no fix available for the selected problem. However, I verified that CustomQuickFixProcessor.hasCorrections(ICompilationUnit, int) gets called and returns true, but, CustomQuickFixProcessor.getCorrections(IInvocationContext, IProblemLocation[]) doesn't get invoked. Attempt 3: Attempt 3 is a continuation of Attempt 2. I set the IJavaModelMarker.ID of the custom marker as follows: marker.setAttribute(IJavaModelMarker.ID, IProblem.ExternalProblemFixable); Consequently, CustomQuickFixProcessor.getCorrections gets called when I hover over my custom marker in the editor or click on the light-build on the left margin of the Java editor. However, when I select the marker in the Problems View, right-click on the marker, and select the Quick Fix menu item, CustomQuickFixProcessor.getCorrections doesn't get called and a dialog appears saying that no Quick Fixes are available. I ran JDT in debug mode to see why it doesn't call CustomQuickFixProcessor.getCorrections when I invoke the Quick Fix from the Problems View. It turned out CorrectionMarkerResolutionGenerator.internalGetResolutions(IMarker) finds no resolutions because CorrectionMarkerResolutionGenerator.hasProblem (context.getASTRoot().getProblems(), location) doesn't find the custom problem in the AST of the compilation unit. I'm not sure how to associate my custom markers with the AST of the compilation unit. A: I got this working, with great help from this post and the debugger. Here is what you have to do: Creating the marker plugin.xml Declare the marker so it extends these three existing markers (I think all are necessary) <extension id="mymarker" name="My Problem" point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers"> <super type="org.eclipse.jdt.core.problem"> </super> <super type="org.eclipse.core.resources.problemmarker"> </super> <super type="org.eclipse.core.resources.textmarker"> </super> <persistent value="true"> </persistent> </extension> Java When you create the marker it is important that you set the IJavaModelMarker.ID field, and I think all the other fields listed here as well. // Must match the "id" attribute from plugin.xml String MY_MARKER_ID = "com.example.my.plugin.mymarker" // Must not be -1 or any of the values in org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler.IProblem int MY_JDT_PROBLEM_ID = 1234 // .... IMarker marker = resource.createMarker(MY_MARKER_ID); marker.setAttribute(IMarker.SEVERITY, IMarker.SEVERITY_WARNING); marker.setAttribute(IMarker.MESSAGE, msg); marker.setAttribute(IMarker.CHAR_START, start); marker.setAttribute(IMarker.CHAR_END, end); marker.setAttribute(IJavaModelMarker.ID, MY_JDT_PROBLEM_ID); Creating the QuickFixProcessor plugin.xml First declare it in plugin.xml. Be sure your declare the right id in handledMarkerTypes <extension point="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.quickFixProcessors"> <quickFixProcessor class="com.example.my.plugin.ui.MyQuickFixProcessor" id="org.eclipse.jdt.ui.text.correction.QuickFixProcessor" name="My Quick Fix Processor"> <handledMarkerTypes> <markerType id="com.example.my.plugin.mymarker"> </markerType> </handledMarkerTypes> </quickFixProcessor> </extension> Java Here is the basic skeleton for the quick fix processor. Note that it is important to check that locations actually has contents. If you make your own marker type (as described above) I think you can just hard-code hasCorrections to return true. But to be save and to follow the convention check that it matches your jdt problem id. public class MyQuickFixProcessor implements IQuickFixProcessor { @Override public IJavaCompletionProposal[] getCorrections(IInvocationContext context, IProblemLocation[] locations) throws CoreException { if (locations == null || locations.length == 0) { // https://bugs.eclipse.org/444120 Eclipse can call this method without // any locations, if a quick fix is requested without any problems. return null; } IJavaCompletionProposal[] proposals = ... //... return proposals; } @Override public boolean hasCorrections(ICompilationUnit unit, int problemId) { return problemId == MY_JDT_PROBLEM_ID; } } Finding a good JDT ID You need a MY_JDT_PROBLEM_ID that is unique!

which had gone on for longer than he could remember, Kuwabara paled, Hiei smirked, and Inoue chuckled with a shake of his head. It didn’t take long until they were both absolutely desperate, grasping at clothing and at their erections and trying to get to the bedroom without tripping or letting go of each other. It was a miracle they made it in one piece into the bedroom. Otabek bit his lip when they pulled apart, and Yuri was beginning to tug at Otabek’s clothing. He easily took it off and Yuri just ogled. “Shit, Beka, have I ever told you how hot you are?” “Uh….” “Well, you’re fucking sexy.” After that, Yuri took off his shirt and Otabek looked his fill (which would probably be _never enough_ , but knowing they had the rest of their lives was reassuring), admiring Yuri’s lithe body, all pale and smooth. “And you’re gorgeous. So gorgeous,” Otabek whispered as he began unbuttoning his now-uncomfortably tight jeans. Yuri hooked his fingers into the waistband of his leggings and they were off in one easy motion. _Legs, so much leg. God,_ he was amazing. That scar didn’t change a thing. “Beautiful…” Otabek could not help what escaped his lips at this point. It had Yuri blushing and their lips were connected once more, effectively shutting both of them up. Otabek slowly backed Yuri up onto the bed. Seeing him there, spread out and almost completely naked did so many things to Otabek. Quite honestly, Otabek wasn’t even sure he _could_ feel anything like this until Yuri. He was quick to discard his own pants, not taking his eyes off him for a second, and crawled over the blond. “Are you sure about this, Yuri?” He _had_ to ask, just to be safe. “I’ve never wanted anything as much as you, Beka.” The look in Yuri’s eyes was sincere and somewhat pleading. And those words and that look did so many things to his heart. So, taking Yuri’s words to heart, Otabek leaned over to kiss him. He had _no_ idea what he was doing, and he was only a little nervous, but he was confident that Yuri would help him, guide him, and tell him what it was he needed. Carefully, Otabek let his hands roam over Yuri, over his chest and stomach and sides. Yuri’s eyes were closed with a smile on his lips, so Otabek kept going. His hands trailed to his inner thighs, over his hips, and eventually, over his still-clothed cock. That had Yuri’s breath hitching. “You can take them off,” Yuri instructed. He was blinking up at Otabek now, encouraging him with his eyes but he could see the _want_. But Otabek shook off all his self-consciousness and was slow to slide down his tight briefs, inch by inch, revealing his hard and leaking pink cock. _Oh fuck._ He was everything Otabek had imagined and more. Even his cock was pretty. Seriously, _what the hell?_ He could not stop his eyes from trailing all over Yuri’s body. His hands followed. So perfect,

on Google for your problem. If you insist that your problem is unique, ask yourself if you've really done enough research. "I Googled it for 10 minutes" is not a good indication of having spent effort. If you think "I don't want to know why, just tell me how to make my code work", then your question would still not be accepted on Stack Overflow (or a sister site). If you've really spent effort on your problem and still can't figure out why, include them in your question and go ahead and ask. It's likely that your question will be upvoted and answered. That says, not all "simple problems" are rejected, provided they're in-line with existing requirements for being asked as a question. Q: Not understanding why this program isn't working? The program I'm making is supposed to print strings out that only end in 'ed'. This is what I have so far, but I don't understand why it doesn't work. Am I misunderstanding the logic behind the for loop with the if statement or am i just going about this wrong completely? #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main () { char string[10][100]; int i; for ( i =0; i<=10; i++) { printf(" Please enter a string for the array \n"); fgets( string[i], 100, stdin); } int length = strlen(string[i]); for ( i=0; i<=10; i++) { if( string[i][length] == 'd' && string[i][length -1] == 'e' ) { printf(" Index %d: %s \n", i, string[i]); } } return 0; } thanks for all the input guys! However, the program is still not outputting strings that end in'ed' when i enter them through the keyboard, it compiles just fine. Here's what I have modified: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main () { char string[10][100]; int i; int length; for ( i =0; i < 10; i++) { printf(" Please enter a string for the array \n"); fgets( string[i], 100, stdin); } for ( i=0; i< 10; i++) { length = strlen(string[i]); if( length > 1 && (string[i][length - 1] == 'd' && string[i][length -2] == 'e') ) { printf(" Index %d: %s \n", i, string[i]); } } return 0; } A: Your indices are not correct. In C, indices start with 0. The first loop should be: for ( i = 0; i < 10; i++ ) The indices in second loop are also not correct. They should be: int length = strlen ( string[i] ); if( length > 1 && ( string[i][length-1] == 'd' && string[i][length -2] == 'e' ) ) In the above statement, since the indices start at 0, the last element will be at length-1. If your string is smiled, the character at index 0 is s and the last character is at index 5 (d) while the length of string is 6. Q: GetFiles not getting the correct files I need to get all .txt files in all subfolders of a specified folder so I do: var files = Directory.GetFiles(reportsFolder, "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories); However, in some folders I also have files with extensions like .txt_TODO, and these are also being

minutes left until UC Davis took over on 16-4 run to end the first half with a 31-22 lead. UC Riverside was 2 of 9 from the free-throw line in the first half. Screenshot by Jasmine France As an avid weather stalker, I can confirm that most of the programs and apps we turn to for our immediate climate information tend toward stale, overly detailed interfaces crammed full of information that the majority of people aren't terribly concerned with. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad sites like Wunderground exist--the granularity is great--but the design is just so Web 1.0. Enter Weather Doodle, an arty iOS app with a creative and minimalistic interface with the ability to draw in even those who scoff at reports in favor of stepping outside. What's great about Weather Doodle is that it presents the weather in a very simple way while still providing a visually appealing interface. Each location screen is contained within what looks like an old television set--you know, the kind with the rounded edges. Cute and colorful animation displays the current conditions, whether it's raindrops falling gently from the sky, a zigzag of lightning poking in and out of a cloud, or the suns rays circling around the big yellow orb. At night, even the stage of the moon is represented in the image. Screenshot by Jasmine France The amount of information on display is up to you. At its simplest, Weather Doodle shows the current condition artwork along with the temperature and location name up top. A click for a bit more information will pop up textual current conditions (such as "mostly cloudy"), wind speed and direction, and the humidity. You can also switch over to forecast mode, which displays the expected weather conditions over the next five days. Additional features include the capability to add any city on earth with a simple search (with some granularity for larger metro areas), as well as the option to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature measurement and mile and kilometer distance measurement (for wind speed purposes). There's also an art shop where you will be able to find more themes by various artists, though there's not much in there as of press time. In fact, if there's one complaint we have, it's the limited themes that come with the app. For the 99-cent purchase price, you only get one, and each additional theme is set to be an additional 99 cents. Not that that's an absurd price point for artwork--digital or no--but it would be great if an additional one or two themes were included in the original download. That being said, it's a lovely little app, and anyone with an eye for style and an interest in weather should check it out. Amid mounting criticism from within and outside of the party, the PNCR today defended their congress elections on Sunday as free, fair and transparent and accused challenger for the leadership, Aubrey Norton and Region Ten member Sharma Solomon of seeking to cause maximum disruption.

to me, Linux), I've noticed that . (current dir) is never in the $PATH by default. Why is this? I recall reading years ago that it was a security problem, but the article I read didn't explain what exactly the problem was. Is it because someone could leave a malicious version of 'ls' or 'cp' in a directory, and I'd end up running it without realizing it was there? Answer: You answered correctly your own question, that's exactly why dot isn't in the path: To protect against childish viruses or honest mistakes. Of course, this is a very lame and useless anti-virus measure, and nothing stops you from adding dot to the path yourself. And on this link, you can find an additional example why is dangerous to put the dot on your $PATH. Footnote: An extreme example would be the situation in which an ordinary user created a shell script such as rm -r /, which would delete all files and directories in the system for which the user had writing permission, and named this script ls. Were the system administrator to navigate to the directory in which this script was located and attempt to run the standard ls command in order to view the contents of that directory, the shell would instead run the script with the same name and thereby remove the contents of all currently mounted partitions on the computer! Also, the purpose of PATH is to complete the path of a command in such way you don't need to remember or type the full path of your binaries. There is no need to index commands of a directory you are in. It's not useful at all if you know where these programs are stored. EDIT: However, after some research, I found that the idea behind the search path came from Multics, but the limitation was that it only searched inside /bin. Unix v3 was the first to implement it without this one-directory limitation. And taking a look at the security pages of the following manual, they already have shown what are the issues while using . in a PATH variable. This applies not only to su and it reinforces the security matter of injecting malicious code on the environment. A Research Unix reader: annotated excerpts from the Programmer's Manual, 1971–1986 Quoting page 13: Trojan Horse tricks and countermeasures were discovered in an ongoing game that has been recounted by Morris and Fred Grampp. Notice, for example, the removal of login(1) to chapter 8 and the intrusion of /etc/ into the synopsis for su (Grampp, v8). These fillips defeated the old chestnut of leaving programs named login or su lying around in hopes of capturing a password typed by an unwary system administrator. Other subtle features of the modern su: dot is excluded from the shell search path and the burglars’ favorite shell variable IFS is reset. Since its conception, this feature has proved dangerous if using dot as part of the $PATH. Q: In visual studio, how to automatically input the latter half part of an object?

The vast majority of races in The Wolf and the Wikk are based on a singular theme, a result of mankind receiving the ability to create fire. In my world, there are many strange magics, but all are affected in some way by Awen, which you could think of as simply willpower. Every race came about by interpretating mankinds gift of fire differently. Some embraced it, most did not. When mankind recived the flame, it caused people to disperse and form cultures. Some cultures were changed on a pysiological level by being in proximity of, or distanced from fire. A good example of this would be the differences between humans, and their close relative the Vy'keen. When humans received fire, some denied its power. Their philosophy grew to value pure human strength, unaided by any magics. And this belief shaped their culture and their physical forms. They became larger, more fit, resistant to the frigid cold of the north. Unwilling, or perhaps unable to create fire, the Vy'keen adapted to eating meat raw, and became masters at stoneshaping, wielding stone weapons and armor. Of course, this is just one of many races of beings in Garddrhosyn shaped by the gift of fire. If I recall right, the unrealistic part of that ejection is not that Anthony Edwards' character died, but that Tom Cruise was on his feet the next day and flying again a few days later.

part) via processes that are irrational, but no more so than the processes that would otherwise have occured. 9 For example, the nudge may simply take advantage of an irrational process that would have occurred-and been equally irrationalregardless; the nudge may do no more than arranging the choice context such that this process favours one choice rather than another. This nudge would harness irrationality, but without subverting rationality. It is also conceivable that a nudge could diminish the procedural rationality of the nudgee (thus subverting rationality) but without operating via any irrational process (thus not harnessing irrationality). Perhaps the nudge subverts the nudgee's rationality only by diminishing the rationality of processes that are not harnessed by the nudge-viz., that do not mediate the nudge's effects on the agent's decisions-but are merely side-effects of it. Or perhaps the nudge diminishes the nudgee's procedural rationality, but not to the degree that the nudgee's processes count as irrational (as opposed to merely 'arational' or 'lessthan-fully rational'). 10 SCHMIDT'S DEFENCE In his recent (2019) defence of nudging, Andreas Schmidt seeks to refute the harnessing irrationality and subverting rationality theses, and thereby to undermine the objection that '[p]ublic policy nudging implies treating agents as irrational' (p. 516). 11 His implicit assumption here is that, if a nudge neither harnesses irrationality nor subverts rationality, then it treats its targets as rational. Or at least, there will be no good reason to deny this. However, for the moment, I will limit myself to exploring Schmidt's arguments against the 9 Variants of this point have been made by numerous contributors to the ethical debate on nudging. See, for example, Thaler and Sunstein (2003: 175;2008: 2-4, 243, 247 . Note that, if the subverting rationality thesis is interpreted globally-as maintaining that the nudgee's total future decision-making processes will, all things considered, be less rational than had the nudge not occurred-then there is also the possibility that an irrationality-harnessing nudge could avoid subverting rationality because, though it diminishes rationality in the short term, it has a longer-term rationality-enhancing effect. 10 I will remain neutral on whether, to qualify as rational, a process must (a) be fully rational or (b) simply exceed some threshold level of BMC Immunology Endogenous Fms-like Tyrosine Kinase-3 Ligand levels are not altered in mice after a severe burn and infection Julia K Bohannon juliakbohannon-jkbohann@utmb.edu Department of Microbiology and Immunology University of Texas Medical Branch GalvestonTXUSA Weihua Cui wecui@utmb.edu Department of Anesthesiology University of Texas Medical Branch GalvestonTXUSA Tracy Toliver-Kinsky Department of Microbiology and Immunology University of Texas Medical Branch GalvestonTXUSA Department of Anesthesiology University of Texas Medical Branch GalvestonTXUSA BMC Immunology Endogenous Fms-like Tyrosine Kinase-3 Ligand levels are not altered in mice after a severe burn and infection 10.1186/1471-2172-10-47BioMed Central Page 1 of 8 (page number not for citation purposes) Research article * Corresponding author †Equal contributors Background: Fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 ligand (Flt3L) is a hemopoietic cytokine and dendritic cell (DC) growth factor that promotes the proliferation and differentiation of progenitor cells into DCs.

We haven’t even opened it yet — we wanted you to be there, for eventual decoding.” Kylo’s mouth tightened. “Alright, Hux,” he said eventually, but there was a spark of dread in his movements. Hux and Kylo reached the control room. “Ready to open it, General, sir?” an excited officer asked. “Go ahead,” said Kylo. The computer bleeped for a moment, and then the intercepted transmission flickered onto the screen. Kylo gave an audible groan. The transmission was written almost entirely in emoji. *** Once upon a time, after the defection of FN-2187, the Stormtroopers became restless.

could do this is very welcomed. Thank you edit: this is var_dump: array(7) { [0] => string(1) "8" [1] => string(1) "9" [2] => string(2) "10" [3] => string(2) "11" [4] => string(2) "12" [5] => string(2) "13" } A: The data is being sent as an array of active values, so if you would check 1,3,5,10,20, in your $this->input->post('symbols'); array you will have array(1, 3, 5, 10, 20): function InsertSymbols() { $data = array(); foreach($this->input->post('symbols') as $symb) { $data[] = array('symbol_id' => $symb); } return $this->db->insert_batch('symbols', $data); } Q: Using Dalton's law of partial pressures A container of volume $\pu{4.0 L}$ contains nitrogen at $\pu{25 °C}$ and $\pu{803 kPa}.$ This container is connected by a valve to another container of volume $\pu{10.0 L}$ that contains argon at $\pu{25 °C}$ and $\pu{47.2 kPa}.$ We now open the valve so that the two gases are mixing. Calculate the partial pressure of each gas after the mixing and the total pressure of the mixture. Using the Dalton's law of partial pressures, isn't the partial pressure of each gas exactly $\pu{803 kPa}$ and $\pu{47.2 kPa}$ and the total pressure $\pu{803 kPa} + \pu{47.2 kPa}?$ What am I missing here? A: Dalton's law of partial pressures means that the total pressure in the final volume $V=V_1+V_2$ is equal to the sum of the partial pressures P(N2) + P(Ar) in this volume. However, the partial pressure of N2 in the total volume $V$ is not the same as the pressure of N2 in its initial volume $V_1$. You have to account for the expansion. This probably means you also need to use the ideal gas law for that. Q: VB.NET: Add class event at runtime to an interface event I have got a problem with converting an example from C# to VB.NET. The C# example has the following structure. First there is a public delegate. public delegate void CustomEventHandler(object sender , EventArgs e); This delegate is connected to an event of an interface. public interface ICustom { event CustomEventHandler MyEvent; } Finally I have got a class with an event related to the delegate. Additionally there is an function with the interface as parameter. public class Test { public event CustomEventHandler OnEvent; public void MySub(ICustom custom) { custom.MyEvent += OnEvent; } } I can convert this code except for adding the class event to the event of the parameter. My VB.NET code looks like the following: Public Delegate Sub CustomEventHandler(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Public Interface ICustom Event MyEvent As CustomEventHandler End Interface Public Class Test Public Event OnEvent As CustomEventHandler Public Sub MySub(ByVal custom As ICustom) ... How can I add here the event OnEvent to the event custom.MyEvent? ... End Sub End Class Is it possible to convert this or is there another way necessary. Thanks for any response. A: The VB.NET version of the Event keyword has much tighter rules, you cannot get to the underlying delegate object. You'll need to write a custom event so you can: Private BackingField As CustomEventHandler Public Custom Event OnEvent As CustomEventHandler AddHandler(ByVal value As

to clean. Also, it is amazingly light weight and works perfectly on my induction cooktop. It is not quite as high as a traditional wok but that has been no problem. I don't use my carbon steel wok much anymore. One thing about woks: The traditional way of using them is to use exceptionally high heat. You cannot, and should not do this with non-stick coatings. The flip side is that there are serious health concerns about using such high heat due to the breakdown of the cooking oil used. I found a good trick to cooking veggies in this wok. Use frozen veggies. They turn out to be nicely browned on the outside, yet retain crispness in the centers. As for oil, you can use less than you would use in a steel wok but remember, the oil adds considerable flavor and has health benefits (olive and canola oil). Recent reports have downgraded the effect of dietary oils on weight. The price is certainly right, 20$!! You will not be disappointed if you buy this pan. Super cute and my son loves them! We have a Tempurpedic mattress, but it is hot. This mattress pad has helped keep us cooler at night. Super nice mount. Just ordered my fourth one. As a women with big, curly hair I love these headbands! They may be more pricey than others but It's worth it to me. Because of the looping style and its thinness, you can adjust the width and they are made with breathable material so you don't get hot with them on. Also, I get headaches easily, which every other headband I've tried seemed to give me, but I can wear this on all day and feel fine (but it's still tight enough to stay in place). If you have a small head and thin hair, it may not stay on as easily though, so be aware of that! Why didn't someone tell me about this before my baby was born? This is the smartest purchase I have made this year, and I just wish I had it from the beginning! Having a preemie baby meant that I had to pump exclusively for the first four weeks of her life. It wasn't until I had been pumping every 2-3 hours for 3 weeks straight that I decided to try this product. Wow, what a difference it has made! I can now type on the computer, read, change channels on the t.v., and even feed my baby a bottle at the same time that I pump. I can't believe I spend so many hours before discovering this procuct. It is a must-have for any mom that needs to pump! The bra itself is made of a very soft cotton and is really comfortable to wear.

The bra itself holds everything in very securely and I never have to worry about anything coming undone. As for how it looks
