realnews | with U.S. monetary policy and instead likely represents continued appreciation of the apparent resilience in Australia's economy. The last employment report showed a surprising surge in new jobs, albeit many were part-time.
My large trade against the euro using the British pound was my best choice for the week, but I took profits after the EUR/GBP failed to follow-through on its breakdown. Holding onto the trade took a lot of patience. Thus, I will likely not re-enter until fresh weakness appears in the form of a new breakdown. For now, I continue to assume EUR/GBP has topped out for the foreseeable future.
The British pound gained ever so slowly over the euro post-Cyprus
This hourly chart shows that the British pound barely budged in Cyprus's wake. After a lot of volatility, GBP/USD managed to close stronger on the week.
The British pound was more impacted by the BOE minutes than news in Cyprus
The British pound even managed to close marginally above the presumed support that had held for almost three years. I took this opportunity to expand a very small short position in GBP/USD that served as a partial hedge on my over-sized short on EUR/GBP. Further follow-through to the upside will likely take me out of this position.
During the week, a lot of economic numbers were released for the UK, including another statement on monetary policy from the Bank of England (BOE). Net-net, it seems the market was encouraged by the lack of "worse news."
The interest in the franc as a potential "safety play" was quite brief. All losses on EUR/CHF from Sunday were reversed by the close of trading on Monday. The currency pair has just churned in place ever since then. The 200DMA seems to be holding up as support, and my preferred entry below 1.21 seems as remote as it was a week ago.
The Swiss franc gains little on the euro as a result of the Cyprus banking crisis
I continue to think of EUR/CHF as the first vote on the health of the euro. If the price action from last week means anything, it suggests the market is nowhere close to abandoning hope over the currency.
One of the bigger enigmas of the post-Cyprus week was Siemens AG (SI), the German industrial conglomerate. I like to think of SI as the final referendum on the health of the eurozone economy (although SI is a global company). Siemens did close down fractionally on Monday following the Cyprus news but by Tuesday it was trading higher than Friday's close. By the end of the week, SI managed to trade at a fresh 19-month high before settling down to its third highest close for 2013.
Siemens manages to gain momentum post-Cyprus
Source for charts: FreeStockCharts.com
Perhaps SI benefited from two analyst upgrades: to buy from Bank of America on the 18th and to overweight from Morgan Stanley on the 20th. Regardless of the reason, a continued rally from here would represent exceptionally bullish price action… and could confirm that the market is already forgetting about Cyprus's | 512 |

Can anybody spot whats wrong with this code? Cheers!
A:
there are quite a few things wrong here:
first of all in your initialize function you are not initializing any of the floats passed by reference.
instead you may want to do this:
void initialize (int& countFemale, int& countMale,
float& sumFemaleGPA,float& sumMaleGPA,
float& avgMaleGrade, float& avgFemaleGrade)
{
countFemale=0;
countMale=0;
sumFemaleGPA=0;
sumMaleGPA=0;
avgMaleGrade=0;
avgFemaleGrade=0;
}
additionally, in your sumGrades function you have :
while( inData >> gender >> gpa )
{
inData >> gender >> gpa;
....
you are losing half of your input because you are rewriting new values immediately after the while loop. instead you should get rid of the inData >>gender >>gpa inside the while block and just use gender and gpa.
edit: your function should look like this:
void sumGrades( ifstream& inData, int& countFemale,
int& countMale, float& sumFemaleGPA, float& sumMaleGPA)
{
char gender;
float gpa;
while(inData>> gender>>gpa)
{
if(gender == 'm')
{
sumMaleGPA += gpa;
countMale++;
}
else if (gender == 'f')
{
sumFemaleGPA += gpa;
countFemale++;
}
}
}
moreover, you open input and output file streams but you do not close them. this is not good.
there is also no reason for you to have istream and ostream parameter types for your sumGrades function when your stream types are ifstream and ofstream file streams.
fix all of these issues and comment back if it is still not working
A:
There are many things that can be improved here
First, rather than have functions to do an action on many things, it is the common practice in C++ to group these functions per thing into a class
Second, there is no need to create functions whose sole purpose is to take code out of main and call them only once
Third, there is no need to have all those variables.
Fourth, personally I prefer double to float because unless there are serious space concerns and precision is verified, doubles avoid many rounding issues.
Fifth, please refrain from utilizing using namespace std; spelling it out is much clearer and will not cause issues if you move code to common include files.
Sixth, please explicitly close files you open.
Seventh, use include files
Here is a the way I would have attempted this:
Include file GradeCategory.h:
#ifndef GRADE_CATEGORY_H
#define GRADE_CATEGORY_H
#include <iostream>
class GradeCategory
{
public:
GradeCategory() : total(0.0), count(0) {
}
void add(double grade) {
total+=grade;
count++;
}
double average() const {
return total/count;
}
friend std::ostream& operator << (std::ostream& S, const GradeCategory& rhs) {
return S << rhs.average();
}
private:
double total;
int count;
};
#endif
And here is the main.cpp file:
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include "GradeCategory.h"
int main() {
std::ifstream inData;
inData.open("cpga.txt");
GradeCategory map[256];
unsigned char gender;
double gpa;
while( inData >> gender >> gpa ) {
map[gender].add(gpa);
}
inData.close();
std::ofstream outData;
outData.open("avggpa.txt");
outData << std::fixed << std::showpoint << std::setprecision(2);
outData << "Average Male GPA: " << map['m'] << std::endl;
outData << "Average Female GPA: " << map['f'] << std::endl;
outData.close();
}

We rather suspect people are going to buy the Snowball on the basis of its looks and its heritage, but that’s no bad thing – it lives up to both name and image. If you’re looking to make great recordings without any hassle and fancy treating yourself, the Snowball could be exactly what you’re looking for.
Republican Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis (R-East Shore/Brooklyn) and John Mancuso, her Democratic challenger for the East Shore seat, laid out some of their key campaign points before members of the South Beach Civic Association during its October meeting in the Epifanio Parish Center of Holy Rosary R.C. Church, South Beach.
Ms. Malliotakis, a Rosebank resident, described how she used her vote as a minority member of the Assembly to help close the state’s $13.5 billion budget deficit by cutting spending instead of raising taxes. When it comes to spending and budget matters, she described herself as a “voice of opposition, a watchdog for my constituents”
She spoke of her efforts to hold the Port Authority accountable for bridge toll increases, and her fight to get the bi-state agency to make its budget and spending public. She said she would also fight to keep a lid on MTA spending so that “the people of Staten Island don’t get stuck with the bill.”
On higher-education, she said she opposes an Assembly bill that would allow children of illegal immigrants to receive taxpayer-funded tuition aid to attend college in New York state.
“To take taxpayer money in the form of tuition aid away from American citizens and give it to people who are here illegally is wrong,” said Ms. Malliotakis, who was elected in 2010 and is seeking her second term in Albany. She said tuition aid should go first to children of American citizens whose families are struggling financially in the down economy.
Mancuso, a South Beach resident who is making his first run for public office, said he would support the bill. He said granting tuition aid to children of illegal immigrants would help ensure they become “productive, taxpaying citizens.”
Regarding the Port Authority toll increase, Mancuso said he would support a “voucher system” where the Port Authority would subsidize a portion of the toll cost for truckers and commercial vehicles who do business here.
He also said he opposes legislation to extend mayoral control of the city’s public school system. “Our schools are failing because of mayoral control,” said Mancuso.
He said mayoral control of the schools has resulted in a test and data-driven system that has teachers and educators more focused on “the numbers” than the needs of students and teachers. Mancuso said he favors ending mayoral control and “returning control of the system to the local school boards and superintendents who know what’s best for their particular neighborhood schools.”

StackExchange | if I throw exceptions, CORS should still be able to kick in and send its headers, so the browser accepts the response. I have created a minimal test case application and I'll send it to the ASP.NET Team on CodePlex.
Link to the test project. (the project zip file will be marked, just click Download and ignore all the other files in that folder)
A:
I have found the source of confusion.
It seems, WebAPI by default is using this exception handler:
https://aspnetwebstack.codeplex.com/SourceControl/latest#src/System.Web.Http/ExceptionHandling/DefaultExceptionHandler.cs
and it has major differences from the suggested exception handling in this article:
http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/web-api-routing-and-actions/web-api-global-error-handling
see chapter "Appendix: Base Class Details", where the code of default exception base class is given.
In the example it checks for IsOutermostCatchBlock (which now seems to be moved to exceptionContext.CatchBlock.IsTopLevel) to see if it's time to handle the exception. When CORS is enabled, such approach won't work for the reasons I described above. ASP.NET team said, this behavior is by design and they won't change anything.
I hope someone experienced will write an up-to-date article with instructions for doing exception handling the right way with and without CORS.
Currently I see two ways to work around this in my code:
don't inherit my custom exception handler from System.Web.Http.ExceptionHandling.ExceptionHandler but implement IExceptionHandler directly
if inheriting from System.Web.Http.ExceptionHandling.ExceptionHandler, override
ShouldHandle method and return true always because CatchBlock.IsTopLevel might never have true value.
I tried both apporaches and they seem to work fine.
Q:
.click() jQuery function works for one ID but not variable
I have this code in my js file and basically what I want to test out is, if the user clicks on a certain button (which has ID of admin).
I want it to bring up a closeButton which is png image and then when the user clicks this again it should disappear. To test of the button functions are responsive I have put alerts in the functions.
Clicking on the initial button works, the function finds the corresponding ID, makes the alert("jQuery Worked") line and brings up the closeButton image.
However when I click on the close button nothing happens (we expect here that the alert("hiii") would work but it doesn't. I have looked online and found that my code needed to be in a $(document).ready(function() {} function which it is but it isn't working. I also tried to use the ID of the image to make the closeButton image disappear but that didn't work either. So I have tried just using the $closeButton variable which I thought for usre should work but doesn't. Why?
.js file
var $closeButton = $("<img>");
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#admin").click(function (event) {
var $overlay = $("<div id='overlay'> </div>");
var $closeButton = $("<img class='classMe' id='closeButtonID' src='https://s23.postimg.org/ouup1ib6z/close_button.png'></img>");
$("body").append($overlay);
$overlay.append($closeButton);
alert("jQuery worked");
});
$closeButton.click(function() {
alert("hiiii");
});
});

you looking for Event delegation.
Event delegation refers to the process of using event propagation
(bubbling) to handle events at a higher level in the DOM than the
element on which the event originated. It allows us to attach a single
event listener for elements that exist now or in the future. | 512 |
ao3 | not gay! he shouted in his head, trying to repress the growing anger that was inside of him. He breathed heavily as the hot water ran down his skin. “Dean, are you okay?” Cas called from the outer room. “Yeah,” Dean replied, as he turned the water off. Dean came out of the shower in a towel that barely covered anything above his knees. Cas looked frozen for a second and cleared his throat as he averted his gaze from Dean. “So, what did Sam want us to do?” Cas asked, trying to start a conversation. “He wanted us to look around and talk to the staff,” Dean replied as he got dressed. “Let’s go,” Cas said as the two left the room. Cas and Dean walked towards the lobby and asked to talk to the motel staff. A short, skinny woman walked towards Dean and Cas and said they could talk to her. “What are you asking about?” the staff woman asked. “There was a murder last night,” Dean replied bluntly, causing Cas to give him a worried look. “Oh my god,” the woman said, shocked. “Let me just ask you this: have you seen anything weird around here lately?” Cas asked, walking closer to the woman. “No, but I haven’t been here very long,” she replied. “You should talk to some of the other staff here,” she suggested as she walked away.
Cas and Dean walked through the hallways and tried to talk to the other staff. Suddenly, they heard a man screaming as he ran out of his room, blood streaming down his face. “Are you okay? What happened?” Dean asked as he stopped the man. “There’s a vampire in the room!” he shouted. “What?” Cas asked worriedly. “I swear, I’m not crazy,” the man retorted. “Okay, we’ll check it out,” Dean replied as he stepped into the room. “Do you have your gun?” Cas whispered in Dean’s ear. “No,” Dean replied. “Hopefully, it’s not in here,” he continued. Dean and Cas walked through the room, towards the bathroom as they noticed blood splatter on the floor and walls. Dean opened the door and saw a vampire with golden eyes biting at the remains of a bloody corpse. Dean tried to contain his fear and gasped sharply as his heart skipped a beat. “Are you okay?” Cas asked as he looked at the ghastly vampire. “Run!” Dean shouted. Cas and Dean sprinted out of the room and headed back to their room. Dean decided to call Sam. “Sam, I’ve figured out what we’re dealing with. There’s a vampire running around, killing people,” Dean explained. “Oh, we need to figure out how many vampires are here,” Sam replied. “Let’s get them. Meet me in the room,” Dean said as he hung up the phone.
Sam met Dean and Cas at their room and looked through his bags. “Are you sure we don’t have anything that can hurt vampires?” Sam asked as he looked around frantically. “Here, I found a gun,” Dean replied excitedly. “What kind of gun is this?” Sam | 512 |

Communism doesn't exist. Not in Russia and not in would-be-Kurdistan. The political PKK started off with a marxist ideology, but their guerilla forces only fight a terror war for their Kurdistan dream today. It's misleading to call some independence fighters "leftist". As if non-"leftist" terrorists, warlords and whatnot would be any better. Or different. PLO, IRA, CIA, Tamil Tigers, even the original Boston Tea-Party. And calling the nation with very obvious deficits in democratic basic features, a history of genocide in Armenia and the suppression and warfare against ethnic minorities nazis is a good start.
I have more than done my research. I was raised by a black woman that brought me into her family as a child, I know first hand of the kindness that community can bring and I also know first hand the racist violence it breeds towards not just whites but to their own kind as well. I fought for a long time not to feel this way but you can't hide from the truth. Get your head out of fox, cnn, abc, NBC etc.. They are the enemy causing most of this hatred and division that all originates from one ((((source)))). Don't tell me to do my research when you obviously haven't done yours or are deciding to turn a blind eye to the facts.

Gutenberg (PG-19) | spring her father
took her to Canada, to the great disappointment of hosts of admirers. At
Quebec she was married and went to France. That was ten years ago. He
had grown queer and morose since, and turned miserly.
There was a peremptory thump at the door, and Antoine started, glancing
wildly about an instant, then went through and unfastened the stout
hook. The chain he did not remove: it was about a foot from the floor
and well calculated to trip up any unwary intruder and send him
sprawling face downward.
The night had grown dark, and a mist-like rain had set in. The trees
were beating about in the rising wind.
"Open wide to us, Antoine Freneau! See what I have brought you, if you
can make light enough."
"Gaspard Denys--is it you? Why, I thought you were in the wilds of
Canada. And----"
He kicked aside the chain and peered over at the small figure beside
Gaspard.
Gaspard had just stood the child down, and his arms tingled with the
strain when the muscles were set loose.
"You have brought her!"
There was a sound in the voice far from welcome, almost anger.
"Yes; your messenger from New Orleans told the truth. The nurse or
companion, whatever you may call her, had instructions, if no one
claimed her, to place her in a convent."
"And you--you interfered?" Freneau struck his clinched fist hard on a
pile of skins.
Gaspard laughed.
"What I am to do with a child is more than I can tell," Freneau said
doggedly, almost threateningly.
"Well, you can give us something to eat. Your supper has a grand
fragrance to a hungry man. Then we can discuss the other points. A bear
taken away from his meal is always cross--eh, Antoine?"
Freneau turned swarthy; he was dark, and the red tinge added made him
look dangerous.
"I don't understand----"
"Well, neither do I. You married your daughter to a French title when
you knew she would have been happier here with a young fellow who loved
her; and--yes, I am sure she loved me. Somewhere back, when my forebears
called themselves St. Denys, there might have been a title in the
family. In this New World we base our titles on our courage, ambitions,
successes. Then her little daughter was born, and she pined away in the
old Chateau de Longueville and presently died, while her husband was
paying court and compliments to the ladies at the palace of Louis XVII.
There are deep mutterings over in France. And De Longueville, with his
half dozen titles, marries one of Marie Antoinette's ladies in waiting.
The child goes on in the old chateau. Two boys are born to the French
inheritance, and little mademoiselle is not worth a rush. She will be
sent to her grandfather somewhere in the province of Louisiana. But the
nurse goes to Canada to marry her lover, expatriated for some cause. You
see, I know it all. If mademoiselle had stayed in France she would have
been put in a convent." | 512 |

FREE CONCERTS
Stryker's Posse will strike a chord with reggae music lovers from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Thursday -- opening night of the La Provence Thursday Night Concert Series at Hopkins Plaza, between Baltimore and Charles streets and Hopkins Place. The fourth annual event will feature a jazz, rhythm and blues, reggae or Latin band -- free -- every Thursday through July 29.
The start of a new concert series will make you wish you could be in two places at once. Running concurrently with the La Provence series is the Center Plaza Concert Series at Fayette, Charles and Liberty streets, near the BG&E building. Saxophonist Sonny Fortune, who has performed with legends Miles Davis and Buddy Rich, kicks off this event.
The Center Plaza concerts are from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. every Thursday -- also through July 29. Concert-goers are asked to bring lawn chairs as cafe seating is limited. Information: 837-4636 or (800) 282-6632.

Three musicians playing period instruments will perform that and other songs marking U.S. history from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday at the Top of the World Observation Level of the World Trade Center for "In and Around Baltimore Town -- A Musical Chronology of Baltimore's History."
Other oldies but goodies include the "Charles Carrollton March," the "Constellation Cotillion," the "Baltimore March," the "Commodore Perry March," "Gen. Lafayette's Grand March" and the original version of "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Oh, about the "Hard Cider Quickstep": Composed for the Whig party convention in Baltimore in 1840, it shows that dirty campaigns span U.S. history.

thin planks sag into standing pools, and there is a glimmer of poisonous
blue just along the base of the blackened walls; thousands feed daily in
troughs like these!
The next apartment, smaller yet, and blacker and bluer, and more
slippery and slimy, is an uncovered cesspool, from which a sickening
stench exhales continually. All about it are chambers--very small
ones,--state-rooms let me call them, opening upon narrow galleries that
run in various directions, sometimes bridging one another in a marvelous
and exceedingly ingenious economy of space. The majority of these
state-rooms are just long enough to lie down in, and just broad enough
to allow a narrow door to swing inward between two single beds, with two
sleepers in each bed. The doors are closed and bolted; there is often no
window, and always no ventilation.
Our "special," by the authority vested in him, tries one door and
demands admittance. There is no response from within. A group of
coolies, who live in the vicinity and have followed close upon our heels
even since our descent into the underworld, assure us in soothing
tones that the place is vacant. We are suspicious and persist in
our investigation; still no response. The door is then forced by the
"special," and behold four of the "seven sleepers" packed into this
air-tight compartment, and insensible even to the hearty greeting we
offer them!
The air is absolutely overpowering. We hasten from the spot, but are
arrested in our flight by the "special," who leads us to the gate of the
catacombs, and bids us follow him. I know not to what extent the earth
has been riddled under the Chinese Quarter; probably no man knows save
he who has burrowed, like a gopher, from one living grave to another,
fleeing from taxation or the detective. I know that we thread dark
passages, so narrow that two of us may not cross tracks, so low that
we often crouch at the doorways that intercept pursuit at unexpected
intervals. Here the thief and the assassin seek sanctuary; it is a city
of refuge for lost souls.
The numerous gambling-houses are so cautiously guarded that only the
private police can ferret them out. Door upon door is shut against
you; or some ingenious panel is slid across your path, and you are
unconsciously spirited away through other avenues. The secret signals
that gave warning of your approach caused a sudden transformation in the
ground-plan of the establishment.
Gambling and opium-smoking are here the ruling passions. A coolie will
pawn anything and everything to obtain the means with which to indulge
these fascinations. There are many games played publicly at restaurants
and in the retiring-rooms of mercantile establishments. Not only are
cards, dice and | 512 |
StackExchange | our data. Then write a function to open the file and save the contents to...
#include <exception>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
class FileData {
private:
std::vector<std::string> fileContents_;
std::size_t linesInFile_ { 0 };
public:
FileData() = default; // empty base constructor
explicit FileData( std::vector<std::string>& contents ) : linesInFile( contents.size() ) {}
void addData( std::vector<std::string>& contents ) {
fileContents = contents;
linesInFile_ = contents.size();
}
std::vector<std::string>& getFileContents() { return fileContents_; }
std::size_t numberOfLinesInFile() const { return linesInFile_; }
};
void getAllLinesFromFile(const char* filename, std::vector<std::string>& output) {
std::ifstream file(filename);
if (!file) {
std::stringstream stream;
stream << "failed to open file " << filename << '\n';
throw std::runtime_error(stream.str());
}
std::string line;
while (std::getline(file, line)) {
if (line.size() > 0)
output.push_back(line);
}
file.close();
}
int main() {
// my function allows you to do this a couple of ways:
std::vector<std:string> fileContentsA, fileContentsB;
// Just by passing the name directly in as a const string literal.
getAllLinesFromFile( "somefile.txt", fileConentsA );
// Or by
std::string filename( "somefile2.txt" );
getAllLinesFromFile( filename.c_str(), fileContentsB );
return 0;
}
The above will give us our vector of strings that we need; however we have to parse that for our data structure, but since our data structure's constructor and or add function matches directly as the pattern of the file contents all we need to do is constructor our class object and in this case there is no need to parse the file.
Now if you were reading individual words from a single line of text where specific words had specific meanings and other characters were values, then you would have to write a parser function to break the strings down into individual tokens. However, here is not the case it is a simple read and pass to object operation.
int main() {
// my function allows you to do this a couple of ways:
std::vector<std:string> fileContents
std::string filename( "somefile.txt" );
getAllLinesFromFile( filename.c_str(), fileContents );
FileData myData( fileContents );
// Or
FileData myData2;
myData2.addData( fileContents );
return 0;
}
Here I have a default empty constructor that will later on require the use of the addData function, but I also have a constructor that will take the data directly. This will give the user flexibility when using the class. If you already have the data ready by the time you are creating the class object you can use the constructor and pass the data in. In some cases you may not be ready for the data, but you have to have the object first to be populated later.
One thing to take note of is that my file reading function is throwing and error message so in our main function we need to wrap it into a try catch block. The entire app would look something like this:
#include <exception>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
class FileData {
private:
std::vector<std::string> fileContents_;
std::size_t linesInFile_ { 0 };
public:
FileData() = default; // empty base constructor
explicit FileData( std::vector<std::string>& contents ) : linesInFile( contents.size() ) {}

ao3 | Taylor attempted to sound flippant although Bobby’s reprimand stung like alcohol in a wound. “Can’t please everyone.”
“Count me as one of those not pleased.” Bobby obviously wasn’t done with ripping into Taylor’s hide. “What the hell possessed you to send out a Tweet like that, eh?”
“Freedom of speech.” Taylor blinked back the dampness that always welled in his eyes when he was bawled out by one of the legends of the game, something that never got any easier. “Black humor.”
“Pete interpreted it as you crying out to be traded.” Taylor could hear Bobby’s lips thinning even if he couldn’t see that sign of Bobby’s disapproval. “Were you crying out to be traded? Because if you were, next time tell me first, so we can put in a proper trade request, instead of posting something that will piss off your GM on Twitter.”
“I don’t want to get traded,” protested Taylor, his temper flaring and heating his words. “I want to be in Edmonton when this ship finally gets turned around and starts heading in the right direction. I want to make the playoffs here. I want to win a Cup here. I’ve said that a million times, and I never stopped meaning it.”
“Well, if you want to stay in Edmonton, don’t make it’s losing the butt of your Twitter jokes.” Bobby wasn’t about to cease gnawing on this bone, that much was apparent. “That’s a great way to get your ass traded.”
“All right.” Taylor massaged his throbbing temples and offered in the hope of appeasing Bobby, “Next time I’m about to post a sarcastic comment on Twitter, I’ll get your stamp of approval first, okay?”
“Fine.” Bobby didn’t sound entirely placated but Taylor was too desperate for information not to ask the question burning a hole in his tongue.
“Bobby, will Pete let Connor live with me?” Taylor pinched an earlobe to prevent his fingers from trembling as he awaited Bobby’s answer.
“He couldn’t stop Connor from living with you.” Bobby’s response was not exactly reassuring. “He doesn’t control where Connor lives, but he definitely made it clear that he’s afraid you’ll be a bad influence on Connor.”
Carla raised her nose, letting out a dainty _hmph!_ She brought out her wings, flying away without looking back. Wendy watched her go, now feeling uneasy.
She hated with when they fought. Carla was her best friend, after all, but she always treated her more like an overbearing mother. She knew it was because she cared, but she wished she had more faith in her. She wished she didn’t treat her like a baby.
But, Wendy had to admit. Carla’s tough love got her through many, many hard times. Since they were small children, up until the two took on the events in Edolas together. It was just another spat. After the trials, they would be back to normal.

Q:
Are the CRM error codes and associated descriptions available as part of the database?
I am in the process of using the Import tool of CRM 2011 to get some legacy data migrated into a new CRM system. The failures that are reported of part of an Import contain a variety of reasons as to why the given source row failed. You can export error rows, but it exports EVERY row that was in error. This is irrespective of if you use that checkbox thing down the left hand side (what is that for anyway).
So I'm now resorting to the underlying database (again) and the error codes are listed there against each row. I'd just like to know if the error message is listed somewhere in the CRM tables as currently all I have is a integer that corresponds to the codes listed on this site
The query I'm mucking about with at the moment is similar to;
SELECT HeaderColumn, ColumnValue, SequenceNumber, ErrorNumber
FROM importlogbase
WHERE ImportFileId = 'E07F8495-302B-E311-BD4D-005056818306'
AND ErrorNumber = -2147220653
ORDER BY SequenceNumber
Is there any table within CRM that I can join to that will give me the associated error message for the above error number?
A:
The error definitions are not stored inside the CRM database.
You can find a list of the error codes (and a C# helper class (errorcodes.cs) inside the CRM 2011 SDK:
samplecode\cs\helpercode
Q:
How can I avoid floating the same content twice?
My Kynetx app uses float_html() to put up a box full of content.
rule float_box {
select when pageview ".*"
pre {
content = <<
<div id='messagebox'>
<h3>Floating Message Box</h3>
<ul id='my_list'></ul>
</div>
>>; // trippy
}
float_html("absolute","top:25px","right:20px",content);
}
rule fill_box {
select when pageview ".*"
foreach ["alpha","bravo","charlie"] setting (list_item)
append("#my_list", "<li>#{list_item}</li>");
}
The app (a421x27) is used from a bookmarklet. If you click the bookmarklet twice on the same page you get double content.
Is there any way to detect that the box is already on the screen and reuse it?
A:
You can float the content manually using jQuery and check to see if it's already there or not.
ruleset a60x516 {
meta {
name "so-answer-example"
description <<
so-answer-example
>>

ao3 | Gavin's waist and kissed him, and that was how their story starts. As all good stories do this one must end and it was not too happy.
\--------
They dated for a good two years and as far as everyone knew the first year and a half were wonderful. Meg and Lindsay used to describe it in the best way, and that was that Michael and Gavin reminded them of all those dumb movie couples that just never stopped loving one another and they were not wrong. That last half of a year though was when things really went to shit for these two.
They always had a way of fighting but never really getting mad at one another. It had plenty of times been shown in videos and that was just how their friendship and relationship worked, well for a while. Some fights were minor as others weren't. Gavin would piss off Michael while he was doing something and Michael would yell and scream until Gav almost cried. Other times Michael would make fun of Gavin causing Gav to get very hurt until Michael would eventually end up sleeping on the couch.
Geoff and Ray had eventually caught onto this viscous cycle that seemed to happen quite often from the amount of phone calls they would receive from Michael and Gavin. It was when the couple came into the office barely speaking and when they did speak they yelled. It was especially annoying when the two had to film and the Let's Play had to be paused constantly due to the two fighting.
Although this time it was Ryan who decided this was getting quite unruly instead of Geoff. Unlike Geoff who viciously voiced his opinion Ryan was much more calm. He whispered to Geoff who understood the message and asked Jack to go to lunch with him. While Ray simply stayed partially because he knew Ryan didn't want to be alone in this.
"Guys I think you two really need to talk." Ryan said almost whispering. "You guys have been fighting non stop and it's really starting to get unhealthy." Ray said looking at the ground as Michael sighed as if he knew they were right. "Can you give us a minute?" Michael asked as Gavin looked ready to cry. Ryan and Ray both got up and went to the hallway.
John was a bit uncomfortable. His neck felt stiff and there was something heavy on his chest, making it harder for him to breathe. There was also this niggling feeling someone was staring at him. That was when his mind seemed to work once again. He wasn’t at home, that much was certain, going by the extremely soft sofa under him. It also smelt different. His home had this distinct smell of sunshine and toast that John was fond of. This one, though, it smelt like old wood and freshly picked flowers.
John couldn’t shake off the feeling that someone was staring at him, he tried to ignore it and just sleep, but it was bothering him. He reluctantly | 512 |

If you like science fiction then this book is for you. I have to admit I do not know much about this genre "Steampunk" however I do know and enjoy Jules Verne stories and Mr. Blaylock has captured quite a bit of what Mr. Verne used to put in his stories. What I am reminded of is "Master of the World" by Mr. Verne with his airship because Langdon St. Ives has an airship that he uses as we use a car. "The Aylesford Skull" is my first Langdon St. Ives thriller but I guarantee you this will not be my last. I like this character a lot and he kinda has a Sherlock Holmes atmosphere about him. Mr. Blaylock has given us a rip-rousing adventure yarn that will grab your attention and keep you flipping pages as fast as you can read them. A partial list of ingredients within "The Aylesford Skull" are a pirate attack, grave robbing, murder, a bombing, a chase in the sewers and an airship over London. This is an exciting book and I am sure you will enjoy this book as well.

At last I've read it! 46 years old and wish I'd read it sooner. What a great story. No wonder it's a classic.
A great cast of characters across the spectrum with the capricious villainy of Long John Silver at the worst end, you can lay to that!
Adventure, exploration, intrigue and mortal danger in an exotic setting!

Hello all,
When I try to delete a message from the second page on, it seems to delete
the last message, but deletes the selected one. (It seems it doesn't
refresh the screen) The only way I can be sure what message was deleted is
doing a logout and login again.
After deleting one message, the selected message header is still there,
and the other headers don't change, except the last one, that disappears.
If I try to delete it again, it happens again, but now I`ve deteled not
the one I wanted, but the next one (the message list is shifted).
Any ideas about how to fix it ?

Hello Everybody,
I have a friend who asked me the following question:
"I have ext2 files on a ZIP cartridge, is there any programs
for Win95/98 which would allow me to access the ext2 FS?"
I currently only have my laptop with Win98, my linux box will not be up
for a
while, but I could really do with being able to access my ext2 FS
backups
on ZIP cartridge.
Your help will be most appreciated. Maybe you can forward my query and
get any replies back to me."
If i understand it right, in order for win95/98 to understand/read ex2
FS , it has to have support for it, ie, the OS has to have some type of
filesystem driver that will read a certain type of filesystem. Now i do
not know any utilites/driver that would let my friend do this..should
you have any pointer/suggestion on this one, please reply to the list
and we would greatly apprecviate it.
Thank you.

Do you need the ICA manager to make a Citrix connection if you are not using

There seems to be an icon in the package for just ICA itself but no menu

nytimes-articles-and-comments | are we kidding with the calls for police reform? Calls for police reform are just an attempt to give time for the current temperature of rage to lower. Policing in America is designed to maintain White Privilege.Until you deal with American Apartheid you are just spitting in the wind. The so called Thin Blue Line is designed to be the modern day overseers of the plantation. The Thin Blue line uses violence to control people of color. White people never really cared how Supremacy was maintained as long as it was. Cameras have forced them to see what their cops have been doing for years to maintain Supremacy. You can't reform policing until you reform the reason why it exists.
Why have a "Justice" Department at all? Trump should end this ridiculous charade, disband the government, and just rule by decree like he so desparately wants to. That is practically what is going on already anyhow.
Maybe if he decided to make his dictatorship official enough people would sit up and pay attention to what is happening to have him removed from power.
The veneer that the electorate has any real influence over the government is getting really thin.
Another article written to give djt and the republican party an out this November. It was not the pandemic that was the cause of the job loses, it was the republican administrations handling of the pandemic that resulted in the number of sick Americans, dead Americans and the spread of the virus. The republicans disbanded the WH office responsible for pandemics, did not listen to scientific advice early in the pandemic nor did they learn from other country's mistakes.
The republicans have not organized a national response that would have allowed more testing to contained the virus or helped lower the death rate.
You did not give President Obama enough credit for taking a moribund, trashed republican economy and making it into the economic engine that it was. An economy that a failed, divorced, crude reality TV star claimed credit for.
You have to do a better job of framing your articles if we are to survive as a democratic country.
I was in Iraq in 2006-2007. We risked our lives to secure poling places so Iraqis could vote in their first election in a generation. Remember the pictures of Iraqis with blue thumbs who had voted? Although Iraq was a mistake, it was a high point in a sad and unnecessary chapter of human suffering. We were a normal country back then. We had free and fair elections and we were trying to be an example for the rest of the world. Unfortunately, a SCOTUS decision in 2000, created the conditions that resulted in all this suffering, that the justices never got to see or consider.
This article reminds me of how far we have come since Citizens United, Gerrymandering, repeal of the Voting Rights Act, and the election of DJT. The SCOTUS has been legislating from the bench with regards to voting and elections, in order to benefit the GOP. I'm very doubtful | 512 |

Since we could not solve the problem, even with tsauerwein's recommendations, this feature was put to the fridge for a while. Now we got back to it with fresh ideas and actually found a "solution".
Something that I made not clear in the question is that segments of a LineString are colored according to a property of their starting point. Several consecutive segments may thus share the same color if the value of this property doesn't change between them.
The idea is to avoid creating a new style for each and every segment but rather to create a new style only when necessary (when the color changes) :
let i = 0,
color = '#FE2EF7', //pink. should not be displayed
previousColor = '#FE2EF7',
lineString,
lastCoordinate = geometry.getLastCoordinate();
geometry.forEachSegment(((start, end) => {
color = this.getColorFromProperty(LinePoints[i].myProperty);
//First segment
if (lineString == null) {
lineString = new ol.geom.LineString([start, end]);
} else {
//Color changes: push the current segment and start a new one
if (color !== previousColor) {
styles.push(new ol.style.Style({
geometry: lineString,
fill: new ol.style.Fill({
color: previousColor
}),
stroke: new ol.style.Stroke({
color: previousColor,
width: 2
})
}));
lineString = new ol.geom.LineString([start, end]);
} else {
//Color is same: continue the current segment
lineString.appendCoordinate(end);
}

Q:
How to select dataframe columns using schema fields
I joined 2 dataframes, then wanted to select only one dataframe's columns. So I try to use its schema as columns in select but couldn't figure out how. The language is Scala.
A:
This could be achieved as an example shown below. In this example, I have used two different schemas.
That is possible using multiple field selection using _*.
import spark.implicits._
import org.apache.spark.sql.functions._
import org.apache.spark.sql.types._
val empSchema = StructType(Array(StructField("id", StringType, true), StructField("name",StringType,true),StructField("prof",StringType,true)))
val salarySchema = StructType(Array(StructField("emp_id", StringType, true),StructField("salary",IntegerType,true)))
val emp = spark.read.option("delimiter", ",").schema(empSchema).csv("/tmp/test1.csv")
val salary=spark.read.option("delmiter",",").schema(salarySchema).csv("/tmp/test2.csv")
val joined = emp.join(salary,emp("id")===salary("emp_id"), "outer")
val columnsEmp = emp.columns.map(name => col(name)).toSeq
joined.select(columnsEmp: _*).show // gives columns from only emp dataframe

I am in the UK and went to GAME. They are normally overpriced but for the same price as the starter pack on Amazon, GAME are selling a bundle that also includes x3 extra games (SuperHot and Perseverance...) a digital code.

Also, GAME let me trade in old games for more discount.
Eh we got some casuals but the majority plays meta. 30-50 ish people per week. It's a fun mix, I simply play gouki because I grabbed it cheap and got nothing else. I mostly go to locals to shitchat with my friends though, so it's a good local for me. It's also hygienic and clean so that's a bonus.
Buy and learn a instrument. Make music. It's endless, endless fun. It's something you don't get bored of after a while, or naturally comes to an end like a book or a movie. At any point there's literally years' worth of practice ahead of you. Even when you're not feeling like practising technique, there's always a new song you want to play, right around the corner. The emotional satisfaction you get out of that is not just one of accomplishment, but also, if you play well, an intimate connection with the original song. If you're bored of even that, you can start composing. It's wonderful company during late nights alone. It's fantastic in company. Even the stupidest, simplest stuff sounds good in harmony. It's like a video-game except it's ALWAYS the right balance between difficulty and fun, because you set your own goals, and feedback is instant: it either sounds good or doesn't. There's lots of moments where you fail, fail, fail, and suddenly succeed one day out of the blue, and feel amazed at yourself. It teaches you a lot, and always humbles you because there's always someone much more skilled than you out there. Buy and learn an instrument.
Why? Serious question. If you make sound investment decisions (AMZN, GOOGL, BABA, AAPL, etc.), why not double up your positions if you find a decent portfolio make-up? I use margin, at 8 3/4% monthly. But the returns cancel that all out. If it's a bad month, I see your point. Please elaborate on your view?

FYI, I've uploaded eplain-3.5 to CTAN and installed it in TeX Live.
Aside from bug fixes to \columnfill and others, the changes are small:
* make \providecommand and \newcommand \long, like LaTeX.
* restored the catcode of @ at \endpackages.
* ifpdf.sty: update to latest version.
I also attempted to update the web pages at http://tug.org/eplain,
although undoubtedly missed some problems there.

Hello,
my application loads a user-generated scenegraph but also creates its
own nodes. I want to identify the self-generated nodes uniquely.
I thought of using a description, but this is never necessarily
unique, because the user might accidently create just the same
description string in one of his nodes.
In the documentation of osg::StateAttribute::Type there is a short
description of how to add your own StateAttribute:
"When extending the osg's StateAttribute's simply define your own Type
value which is unique, using the StateAttribute::Type enum as a guide
of what values to use."
But I dont understand, if I have to change the OpenSceneGraph code to
do so (which I dont want!) or if I can do this from my own code.
Do you know any solution for this problem?
Thanks in advance!

I have been using a Fuji X100S camera for a few months now and have found some
confusion on forums as to how Fuji handles their Dynamic Range (DR%)
adjustments, particularly with regard to raw output. I thought I would post a
synopsis of my personal findings for those interested now that the Fuji X-trans
sensor cameras are supported on dt.
Fujifilm, despite providing raw image data, appear to be intent on making an
effort to seriously improve and encourage photographers to use jpg camera
output. Their camera controls allow for both significant pre and post shot
adjustments to the tone curve, the color model, sharpening, noise reduction
and most importantly the image's dynamic range; working from the raw into the
jpg format.
Some early tests using jpg output did confirm that the dynamic range, using the
DR% settings, is greatly improved .... my question was, how can I utilize this
while shooting raw?
Yesterday I made a test, photographing a test card with the camera fixed on a
tripod, I photographed the card with aperture priority setting with the camera
retaining both raw+jpg. I made 3 exposures as follows:
1.) ISO.200 @ DR.100%, 2.) IB49KkkoJ0HmKA08@example.com% and 3.)ZEbqSG7RjCaFOVKJ@example.com%
The files were opened in dt and the 3 jpgs looked identical with all of the
histograms totally matching.
The 3 raw files were opened and striped of | 512 |

Pile-CC | performance of searches for non-existent items; in fact, they often worsen such performance because the code must first search the cache, fail to find the object, then must search the underlying store, and fail to find the object again. In this case, the cache has added overhead and contention without adding benefit.
In practice, we try to minimize the situations where clients search for objects that don't exist, but such situations still arise, so, every six months or so, somebody tries to figure out a way to improve the cache so that it can cache items that don't exist, a discussion that usually ends quietly once my colleague Tom points out the obvious impossibility of enumerating the infinite space of objects that don't exist.
At any rate, I was reminded (a bit) of this by this cute post on The Daily WTF, in which the programmer makes the basic mistake of trying to enumerate all the unwanted data, rather than simply specifying the valid data.
Of course, not only is this technique a poor performer, but, perhaps more importantly, it is a classic source of security bugs, since the bad guys can always think of an extension that you left off your list. So, in this case as in so many others, the simplest code is not only easiest to understand, and best performing, but it is the most secure as well.

Chapter 9 of Coders at Work contains Peter Seibel's interview of Guy Steele. Steele is another in the progression of language designers that Seibel chose to include in the book: Crockford, Eich, Bloch, Armstrong, Peyton Jones, and now Steele. Although programming language design is clearly one of the most important fields within Computer Science, I do wish Seibel had balanced his choices somewhat, to include more coders from other areas: operating systems, networking, databases, graphics, etc. Still, Steele is an interesting engineer and I quite enjoyed this interview.
Having heard from Zawinski about some of the later developments in the work on Emacs and Lisp, it is interesting to hear Steele talk about some of the very early work in this area:
One of the wonderful things about MIT was that there was a lot of code sitting around that was not kept under lock and key, written by pretty smart hackers. So I read the ITS operating system. I read the implementations of TECO and of Lisp. And the first pretty printer for Lisp, written by Bill Gosper. In fact I read them as a high-school student and then proceeded to replicate some of that in my 1130 implementation.
This description of learning how to program by reading the programs of others, was wide-spread. It is certainly how I learned to program. Although I think that computer science education has come a long way in 30 years, I think that the technique of reading code is still a wonderful way to learn how to program.

Interesting enough, it's basically identical to the Canadian system as far as what it aims to impose. These are not Sander's own arguments, but probably close enough:
While many Canadians have supplemental private insurance, it’s illegal to charge insurance customers for “duplicate” coverage of what’s already covered by the public plan. As I’ve argued elsewhere, such a public monopoly on at least basic insurance is a positive good both in terms of cost control and avoiding an unjust two-tier system.
And in more detail on that argument
Take the debate between proponents of single payer — i.e. of the idea that the government should have a monopoly on at least basic insurance — and various “public option” schemes. Single-payer advocates correctly point out that the cost-control benefits of a public monopoly are canceled out when private companies are free to compete by offering to compensate providers at a higher rate — a dynamic that currently causes many providers to refuse to take Medicaid.
“If Bernie’s plan to abolish private plans (at least for basic insurance) were implemented, on the other hand, doctors and hospitals would have to either close their doors or make do with the rate that Medicare was willing to pay. The last several decades of Canadian history strongly suggest that most of them would learn to make do.”
As for legality, presumably it could be argued so under the Commerce Clause, but of course, it's hard to say what the Supreme Court might decide.
As John K commented below, in Canada the prohibition to buy duplicate insurance was indeed struck down in Quebec, as this 2005 paper notes:
A surprise ruling of the Supreme Court of Canada that struck down a Quebec prohibition on private health insurance in that province has raised fears that a two tier health care system will arise to replace the whole country's universal publicly funded system. Until now, Canadians have not been allowed to buy health insurance to cover services provided by the publicly funded system, even though there are long waits for some of these services. The decision of the court is likely to result in residents of other provinces also challenging the ban.
The court judgment was given in a case brought by Jacques Chaouilli, a Quebec doctor whose patient, George Zeliotis, had waited nearly a year for hip replacement surgery. Dr Chaouilli and Mr Zeliotis argued that Quebec's ban on buying private insurance for services already covered by the public system yet not readily accessible violated both Quebec's Charter of Rights and Freedoms and Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
The court agreed: "In sum, the prohibition on obtaining private health insurance, while it might be constitutional in circumstances where health care services are reasonable as to both | 512 |

Patients were excluded if they had prior spinal surgery such as traditional growing rods, which may reduce the likelihood of the spine to lengthen, and any complications that required early removal of the rod such as deep wound infection. Ethics was approved by the local institutional review board (UW 16-336).
Patients who were eligible for MCGRs were patients with EOS (diagnosis <10 years of age) with major curve Cobb angles >50 . Standard implantation of MCGRs was performed without any additional intraoperative rod distraction attempted beyond just achieving spinal balance. All dual MCGRs were of 5.5 mm in diameter and were placed in a standard and offset configuration. All patients underwent monthly 2 mm distractions to both rods starting at 2 months after MCGR implantation. This is a protocol utilized in previous studies. 11,12 Each distraction aimed at 2 mm on the concave side rod then the convex side rod. Three experienced surgeons performed all surgeries and managed all distraction clinics. Radiographs were obtained every 6 months for assessment of the spinal deformity and to identify any rod-related complications. Ultrasound was used to monitor successful distractions at each monthly distraction. This ultrasonographer was independent and performed all measurements and is blinded to the distraction procedure. Pre-and postdistraction assessment was performed at each distraction. The ultrasonographer performed 3 measurements of each reading and the average was taken for recording. Standard measurement was made at the distal extendable portion of the rod. 17 In the case of a failed successful distraction observed by the ultrasound, alternate distracting technique with smaller intervals or repositioning the patient such as sitting would be performed.
Study Parameters
Demographic data included patient gender, age at MCGR implantation, and diagnosis (congenital, neuromuscular, syndromic, idiopathic). The targeted and achieved lengths (mm) of the right and left rods were recorded via the input in the external remote controller and the measurement of the extended portion of the MCGR by ultrasound. 17 Ultrasound has been validated to be as accurate as radiographs. 17,18 The differences between targeted and achieved lengthening per rod per distraction episode were also recorded.
Distraction Problems and Complications
Whether any rod slippage/rod stalling occurred were also noted. Rod slippage indicates a slippage of the magnetic mechanism and presents with a clunking sound or feeling during the distraction. If rod slippage occurs, other distraction techniques such as single magnet distraction, alternate distraction between rods by smaller amounts (ie, 0.5 mm) or alternative patient positioning would be adopted to reach the same intended 2 mm expected lengthening. Any rod exchanges and timing of rod exchanges were also recorded. Rod exchanges were considered when rods are lengthened to maximum 48 mm, unable to distract despite height gain in at least 2 successive distraction episodes despite positional changes, and if complications such as rod fracture and implant dislodgement precluding further distractions occurred.
Statistical Analysis
Measurements of left and right rods were combined in statistical analysis. Descriptive statistics were calculated as means, standard deviations (SD), and percentages. Comparison between different time points (preimplantation, immediately after implantation, last distraction episode, and immediately | 512 |

Increasingly, an image of the specimen label can be easily consulted or requested and, as a consequence, the importance of verbatim transcriptions is diminishing. However, verbatim transcriptions may also have a new future to train machine learning algorithms that are used to automatically interpret specimen labels. Precise verbatim data are needed as ground truth data to train these algorithms in a way that interpreted text cannot be used, e.g. (33). However, one has to consider that these so-called verbatim data are still, to some extent, an interpretation of the label. They can contain mistakes, but most importantly they also constitute an interpretation by the transcriber of what field a certain verbatim value should fit. For example in Figure 1, some transcribers would list all this text (excluding the coordinates) as a verbatim value for locality, whereas others may distinguish verbatim names for country, county and/or habitat and subsequently split these into different verbatim fields. Spatial arrangement of verbatim text is also important for artificial intelligence strategies, such as machine learning and convolutional neural networks, that hold the promise of finding relationships between and across digital objects documents, specimen labels, field notebooks, etc.
The standards of Darwin Core and ABCD have verbatim terms for some data fields. In principle, there could be a verbatim alternative for any field that might be printed on a specimen

Pamidronate has been hypothesized to effectively inhibit cancer cell growth and metastasis in bone tissue. Furthermore, pamidronate (Pami) exerts various direct effects against several cancer cell types, including growth and migration. The present study aimed to determine the underlying mechanism of Pami's effect on the proliferation and migration of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) cells. KKU-100 cells were used to determine the effects of Pami on cell death and migration. The following were assessed: Sulforhodamine B, colony formation, apoptosis via flow cytometry, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and caspase-3 activity.

As a super-short teaser revealed a few weeks ago, Bethesda Softworks, the company that now controls the long-running Doom franchise, is working on a reimagined version of Doom for release in 2016.
Bethesda confirmed the Doom 2016 release at a games showcase just before the start of this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo, what’s being commonly called just E3 2015. The minutes long teaser for Doom 2016 didn’t include a ton of pre-rendered animations or complicated talk. Instead, the Doom reveal trailer was roughly five minutes full of in-game footage, things that players can expect when they get their copy of the final version of the game.
The trailer begins with the player making their way through what at first appears to be a pretty quiet structure. Soon the player is overrun with demons and enemies. Bethesda is promising new weapons and dangerous enemies for Doom 2016 and they seem to be delivering on that.
If there was a theme for the trailer it has to be sheer gore. All through the trailer the player lurks from room to room, killing anything that move. There’s a solid 40 seconds during the Doom 2016 trailer where the player rips apart different demons with his bare hands. What we can only assume is blood and body matter gush from the enemies bodies and coat the floor in red goo. At one point the player actually rips the forearm off one human completely. He then uses that hand to unlock a door.
The first gameplay showed on stage of Doom 2016 ends with the player being attacked by a vicious demon himself, having his arms ripped off by a demon sitting on his chest. A second clip of footage taken directly from the game drops players in the middle of fiery pit where blood runs across the landscape.

ID, the game’s developer, and Bethesda are promising more than just a great single-player experience for Doom. When it arrives o store shelves this new Doom will include what Bethesda describes as “arena-style” multiplayer combat so that players can use the weapons from the single player experience to destroy each other in the same manner.

PENDAHULUAN
Perkembangan teknologi saat ini sangat pesat khususnya di bidang komputerisasi dan elektronika. Teknologi yang dikembangkan bertujuan untuk memberikan keamanan, baik keamanan diri maupun keamanan terhadap barang-barang berharga dan dokumen-dokumen penting agar terhindar dari tindak kriminalitas, khususnya tindakan pencurian. Barangbarang dan dokumen-dokumen penting biasanya disimpan dalam suatu ruangan khusus agar tidak diambil oleh orang-orang yang tidak berhak. Menanggulangi hal tersebut, pihak perusahaan maupun instansi harus menambah pengeluaran untuk membuat sistem keamanan yang efektif dan efisien. Proses pengawasan pintu dibantu dengan penerapan teknologi, merupakan salah satu solusi agar efisiensi dan proses pengawasannya lebih terstruktur dan lebih baik. Keamanan sebuah ruangan menjadi faktor penting dalam melakukan pengamanan. Lemahnya sistem keamanan ruangan yang diberikan untuk menjaga barang-barang dan dokumen-dokumen penting tersebut, memberikan peluang dan kesempatan pada orang lain yang tidak berhak mengambil dan mencuri barangbarang tersebut.

Gambar 2. Blok Diagram Rangkaian
Dari blok diagram diatas dapat diketahui bahwa konfigurasi dari sistem keamanan ini terdiri dari input, proses dan output. Dari sisi masukan (input) terdiri dari sensor PIR melaluin input digital pin 5 , Limit Switch pada pin 8 dan fingerprint scanner pada input digital pin 10 dan 11 serta push button yang berfungsi membuka pintu dari dalam ruang studio, kontroler yang digunakan adalah Arduino Uno R3, sedangkan dari sisi keluara (output) terdapat relay untuk membuka kunci pintu / Selenoid Door Lock, adapun penggunaan relay pada sistem keamanan ini adalah sebagai jembatan penghubung antara output pin digital 6 dari arduino uno R3 dengan nilai keluaran daya 5v yang menghubungkan daya 12v dari adaptor untuk membuka tuas selenoid door lock pada pintu ruangan. Selain itu buzzer dalam sistem keamanan ini berfungsi sebagai alarm apabila ada penyusup masuk tanpa melewati pintu dengan mengakses fingerprint scanner atau dengan cara membobol pintu ruangan, selanjutnya tampilan LCD 16x2 sebagai sistem informasi keamanan yang memberikan informasi kepada pengguna sistem keamanan ini. Pada dasarnya konsep pembuatan sistem keamanan ini menggunakan kombinasi antara variabel memori yang dibuat pada sketch arduino dalam menentukan kapan sensor PIR aktif dan tidak aktif dalam kondisi Kunci pintu tertutup. Berikut ini adalah ringkasan kombinasi antar variabel dalam menentukan kemungkinan yang akan terjadi pada sistem keamanan ruangan. Setelah | 512 |

1. The WSJ article requires a subscription and isn't scientific. 2. The other link is a blog, not a scientific article, and doesn't say what you seem to think it says. 3. You need an actual peer-reviewed article stating what you stated and it needs to be a good one - not one making invalid statistical conclusions with poor evidence.
Depends on how you want to calculate it. Average IP gain/min is about 1.86, which calculates to about 70 hours for 7800 IP. That doesn't take into account the base IP and daily bonus though, so the actual time is lower, and how much lower depends on your win rate, how often you play, and how long your games last
As a Chinese person, I am curious how you feel about MoP when it comes to the ripoff of everything Chinese, from architecture and art (i mean there is literally a great wall, teracotta warriors and what not) to culture and philosophy. Blizzard doesn't know how to draw inspiration from real world slightly... same thing with Uldum and Northrend.
You'll probably get some acne (this is the first thing that happens to me even if I'm only a day or two late), you might start menstruating again (when I'm especially late or inconsistent about my shots I might have monthly periods for a couple of months, but they're usually light enough for me to not fuss with "hygiene products. YMMV) I considered stopping T for a while and went some weeks without it and honestly all I got was the attitude of a hormonal teen and zits. You'll be fine, it's nothing to panic about. Your voice probably isn't going up, and any weird changes will be subtle and will disappear once you're on t again. If you're sexually active and with a sperm producing partner, just be extra vigilant with protection, and wait it out.
>Why is that the default, and why must trans-ness be proven beyond reasonable doubt instead of the other way around? Well, because trans-ness requires a significant, costly, and time-consuming change to occur, and thus is something that needs to be thought about seriously before undergoing. Whereas cisness is the biological default.

Pile-CC | "Lone Wolf" first meets the Legion. He is an early graduate of the Legion Academy. He is thought dead for six months, but is later revealed to have been kidnapped by the villain Tyr (during his captivity his features become more lupine). He has a long-standing romance with fellow Legionnaire Light Lass; they break up due to a misunderstanding when Light Lass finds Timber Wolf embracing Saturn Girl on a frozen asteroid. In the Timber Wolf mini-series, he travels back in time to the late 20th century, where he fights alien invaders before being returned to his home timeline.
In the fourth Legion of Super-Heroes series, Timber Wolf is revealed to have been reduced to a giant and mindless dog-like creature named Furball, by new Legion member Kono. The transformation was caused by Doctor Regulus, who blasted Timber Wolf with a dose of radiation during his attempt to destroy the sun in the unseen storyline "Black Dawn". The Legion hid Brin's identity from most due to a desire to protect his friends from finding out what had become of him; when a young girl named Gemini discovered this, she "rescued" Brin from his teammates as they traveled the galaxy in search of Darkseid (who was holding Gemini's brother hostage). Intrigued by Gemini's kindness towards Brin, Darkseid restored Brin to normal in exchange for Gemini killing Darkseid. Brin returned the Legion as the change from Furball to human was killing him. Near death, Gemini came to him and offered to change history by making it so Brin never was given Zuunium. Instead, they went back in time to the late 20th century and Brin was apparently healed. There he befriended the "New Blood" super-hero Jamm and was experimented on again by mad scientists who sought to create their own "Timber Wolf". The process transformed Brin again, making him physically wolflike (with brownish black skin limited fur on his body) but allowed him to retain his mind. Timber Wolf returned to the future and ultimately reconciled with the Legion.
The mute Furball incarnation appeared in Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds #5, along with various Legionnaires from alternate worlds, to battle the Time Trapper at the end of time.
Reboot
In the Post-Zero Hour reboot, Timber Wolf was introduced in the Legion Worlds miniseries. He appears to come from Rimbor, the home planet of Ultra Boy. He is a rival gang leader to Ultra Boy in this continuity (Ultra Boy led a gang called the Emerald Dragons, Timber Wolf led a gang called the Lone Wolves). There is a love triangle between himself, Ultra Boy and Apparition, as he met Apparition while Ultra Boy was part of the team lost in the Second Galaxy, and formed a strong connection with her. Timber Wolf later realized his feelings for Apparition were only those of a friend, but Ultra Boy remained jealous.
This version of the character had a healing factor. Later, the serum that gave him his powers caused him to mutate into a feral werewolf.

realnews | China’s economy grew 10% in 2002-12 and India’s by 7% in the same period.
The added advantage is lower levels of European immigration. That, however, is not the whole story. Over three-fifths of EU member-states’ trade in goods is conducted among themselves and intra-EU trade grew by a healthy 5.4% a year over the past decade. Besides, the EU accounts for 54% of the UK’s goods trade.
Its manufacturing prowess enfeebled and usurped now by China, the UK’s main comparative advantage in global trade lies in its services sector. And here, the UK’s trade in services with the EU has been tepid by comparison.
A long, tortuous path lies ahead of the UK as it negotiates the terms of its divorce with the EU. No one knows what the government has in mind, but remaining in the single market is a given. The terms of being allowed this may, however, be difficult to swallow—it may even include allowing Europeans freedom of movement to the UK.
With Brexit still a few years away, talk of a new relationship with the Commonwealth brings with it a whiff of the Commonwealth Free Trade Area, an idea that springs up in academic and policy circles every now and then.
It’s worth noting the challenges: trade in goods among Commonwealth nations is led by just six countries—Singapore, India, Malaysia, Australia, Britain and Canada—that together accounted for 84% of trade in 2011. Secondly, the smaller countries, many of whom are among the least developed in the Caribbean, have seen the preferential treatment once accorded by the UK eroded by the trade rules of the EU and the World Trade Organization. This means they are increasingly exporting their primary commodities to the US.
But the trade in services among Commonwealth countries is growing, according to a 2012 study by the Institute of Commonwealth Studies, a London-based think tank. And it is in the area of increased investment that there is an actual ‘Commonwealth advantage’ of common language, common laws and shared traditions, according to the report written by Ronald Sanders, who was a member of the Commonwealth Eminent Persons Group in 2010-11 from Antigua and Barbuda.
On 26 January 1950, the promulgation of the Indian Constitution changed the nature of the Commonwealth forever. For the first time, a Republic which does not owe its allegiance to the British crown was granted membership of the Commonwealth, thus modernizing the group.
The paths taken by the EU and the Commonwealth are a study in contrast. The EU began as an economic union and a political project was foisted on it later through the Brussels bureaucracy—one of the main reasons for Brexit. With the Commonwealth, the political spadework has already been done. Courtesy of Nehru, it’s a club of mostly friendly nations. It remains to be seen if post-Brexit UK, with its experience of the Europe Union, can now reinvigorate it with an economic purpose.

"We don't want to completely throw the baby out with the bath water as it relates to the data because we have to have the data in order to meet the federal standards as it relates... because it could jeopardize funding."
The revised bill allows for the data to be recorded, but teachers still would not be held to harmful effects of what it told.
"The data has to be good it has to be effective and it has to be consistent and reliable. And so, there were some concerns about the reliability and so you saw the house kind of lock down a little bit until we had further discussion," said Williams.
Before I deal with the yarn of an incredible 46-year-old pig who is already the King of Paradise despite the fact that he spends far too much of his life in a Co. Clare public house, I have to declare that the rest of this column is an election free zone despite all the frantic action on both sides of the Atlantic.
Just one comment by a good Irish journalist named Michael Clifford is maybe relevant to my decision and your almost certain relief. Clifford said this week: "We should remember that we get the politicians we deserve!"
I heartily concur and feel that view is valid along both campaign trails. We will leave it there for now.
Back then with a merry step all the way to Paradise and the emerging fairytale of its incredible pig who is so famous already in his region that there are moves afoot to have him officially declared the Mayor of Paradise itself even before this year is over.
He will surely feature in some upcoming edition of the Guinness Book of Records. Overseas visitors in the know are already spending considerable sums of money just to seek appointments with him and his fame and influence are increasing by the day.
My lips are still sealed about the exact whereabouts of the porcine King of Paradise, but I will tell ye more as soon as I am freed to do so by his bodyguard.
They assured me last weekend they wished to preserve some element of his privacy until the summer. They do not wish His Majesty to be pressured by too many unscheduled callers.
They told me this is already a problem and, given his great age, because 46 is an amazing lifespan for a pig, they are determined to protect him fully. They are extremely devoted to him.
I have, however, wheedled some intriguing scraps of information about His Majesty from his minders.
It is clear, as I said above, that he is a character who likes to spend the most of his daytime hours in a country pub. It is also admitted that, although it is totally illegal in the New Ireland to smoke in pubs, this does not stop the King of Paradise from not alone | 512 |

The local index is based on a national one from the Institute for Supply Management, and Huddy said the local results are in line with national trends.
Fifty percent of the local plants surveyed said they had hired people in the past year, most in response to increased sales.
CPI Aero, GSE and Spectronics have all added workers. “We continue to see growth opportunities,” said McCrosson of Aero.
The poll for the local index was conducted Nov. 3 to 18 by Princeton Survey Research Associates International, with 200 manufacturers responding out of 2,425 called. The margin of error is plus or minus 7 percentage points.
The poll was paid for by shipping giant Purolator International of Jericho, whose president, John T. Costanzo, came up with the idea of the index.
“I hope this information will help Long Island businesses understand how their orders and shipping activity in the future is going to be a good indicator of how the economy is moving here,” he said, adding that the index will be released four times each year.
I’ve always hated debt. When I started college, I took out student loans only because I naively believed that I had no other option. I thought I’d be flipping burgers for the rest of my life if I didn’t use debt to finance my degree. But, while I racked up $75,000 of student loan debt during college and graduate school, I avoided all other forms of debt. I drove an old car and never had a car loan. I didn’t use a single credit card.
As I started chipping away at my student loan debt and thought about buying a home after my loans were paid off, I knew I had to do something to raise my credit score. I want to get the best mortgage rate possible when I purchase a home, so my credit score needs to be excellent. My credit score used to be great (thanks to my student loans), but the more loans I pay off, the more my score decreases.

Still, I stubbornly resisted when anyone suggested that I get a credit card to raise my credit score. Massive debt takes an emotional toll on a person, and the idea of taking on another form of debt filled me with anxiety. But, objectively, I knew getting a credit card was a smart move financially.
I’m naturally a frugal person, so I had no reason to be concerned that I’d be tempted to overspend. I’m also hyper-organized, and there’s no rational reason why I should worry that I’d miss a payment.

I took a critical thinking course in college. In the first day of class we were given a list of things and asked if they were opinion or fact. Evolution was on there and I said fact. The teacher responded with no it's only a theory so it's an opinion. She then proceeded to halt any conversation on the topic. It's a critical thinking course but she expected us to take her word with no discussions allowed, where is the critical thinking in that.

I can't say I'm a big fan of poetry and I didn't exactly look forward to this semester's reading. So I was pleasantly surprised when I ended up really enjoying Wordsworth and Coleridge.

Although the Penguin version may be cheaper, I'd recommend this edition if you're a student. 7/10

"Future Crimes" paints a grim picture about how our computers, cell phones, or basically any of our electronic communications devices can be "hacked". We probably all recognize this fact, seeing how the Pentagon, the CIA, major defense contractors, and Corporate giants are being hacked, but prefer to believe that we're small players, and probably won't be bothered. But Marc Goodman makes it clear that we're all susceptible to electronic invasions of privacy. Chapter after chapter repeat this message.

CHAPTER I.
THE KINZER FARM, THE NEW SUIT, AND THE WEDDING.
Between the village and the inlet, and half a mile from the great "bay,"
lay the Kinzer farm. Beyond the bay was a sandbar, and beyond that the
Atlantic Ocean; for all this was on the southerly shore of Long Island.
The Kinzer farm had lain right there--acre for acre, no more, no
less--on the day when Hendrik Hudson long ago sailed the good ship "Half
Moon" into New-York Bay. But it was not then known to any one as the
Kinzer farm. Neither was there then, as now, any bright and growing
village crowding up on one side of it, | 512 |
realnews | hub of Malawi.
The 58-year-old singer last visited the hospital in July, taking her two adopted Malawian children with her.
- Adoption controversy -
The star was stripped of VIP status by former president Joyce Banda's government in 2013 and accused of being "uncouth" and wanting eternal gratitude from the country for her adoptions.
But Banda was ousted in 2014 elections and the new president, Peter Mutharika, moved to repair relations, saying "my government has always been grateful for the passion Madonna has for this country".
Last July, Madonna said she would not revive plans for a $15 million (14 million euro) academy for girls in Malawi, which was cancelled amid allegations of mismanagement -- leading to her tiff with Banda.
The singer, who divorced film director Guy Ritchie in 2008, has four children.
On Saturday, she made an unannounced appearance in Washington at a rally protesting against US President Donald Trump a day after his inauguration.
Madonna had campaigned for Hillary Clinton to become America's first woman president, and told Billboard Magazine after the Democrat's loss that women had a "tribal inability" to accept a female president.
Identified by its famous eye logo, CBS Sports will have an extra eye on Johnny Manziel this weekend.
The network will have a camera focused solely on the 2012 Heisman Trophy winning quarterback during its coverage of Saturday’s 2:30 p.m. showdown between No. 6 Texas A&M and No. 1 Alabama from Kyle Field.
The contest, believed by many to be the college game of the year, is a rematch of last season’s meeting in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The Aggies upset the eventual BCS champion Crimson Tide 29-24 behind a stellar effort from Manziel, which included this unforgettable play.
This time around, Manziel’s every move will be captured on “Johnny Cam.”
“No matter where he is and no matter what part of the game it is, we will have a shot of it,” CBS Sports coordinating producer of college football Craig Silver told Sports Illustrated’s Richard Deitsch. “If he is anywhere in sight of that camera, we will catch it.”
Bringing more attention to the game, ESPN’s College GameDay will also broadcast from College Station.
A Twitter storm erupted among the scientific community overnight after a researcher tweeted a link to a controversial paper.
In the paper, researchers from China conclude that the human hand 'is the proper design by the Creator to perform a multitude of daily tasks in a comfortable way.'
This has led scientists and scholars to call the peer-reviewed journal a 'joke', describe the paper as 'creationist cr*p' and call for the editor to be dismissed.

goodreads | I don't like writing book reviews. The experience of reading is so individualistic that I feel it can be a waste of time. But I want to point out how excellent this book is. It forces you to think outside your comfort zone about death, about being, about not being. The characters are very likeable and the plot is surreal and imaginative. Beautiful, beautiful book. For fans of Haruki Murakami.
Jay Sekulow's recent book "Unholy Alliance: The Agenda Iran, Russia, and Jihadists Share for Conquering the World" reiterated much of what Americans and Europeans have seen and experienced over the past fifteen years, i.e., there's an element of radical Islamists seeking to attack Western democracies whenever and wherever they can. In the first part of the book, Sekulow discusses some of the basic tenants of Islam, the origins of the beliefs, and differences between Shiite and Sunni elements of Islam.
Sekulow emphasizes that Iran is a major source of hatred and a major supporter various radical elements throughout the Middle East, including Hamas and Hezbollah. And while the sub-title of the book includes a reference to Russia, it's only in the last ten percent of the book or so where Russia seems to be discussed, and then it's mostly in regard to Russia and Iran both working to support the Assad government in Syria.
Sekulow also makes the point that the Obama Administration's failure to stay engaged in Iraq and Afghanistan created a void in leadership in the area - a void subsequently filled by Iran and Russia. Because this book was written before the 2016 U.S. elections, Sekulow didn't discuss newly elected U.S. President Donald Trump, but it's apparent that he would be supportive of Trump's stated intention to take the fight to and quickly defeat ISIS and the terrorist Islamist elements.
Readers with an interest in this subject might also be interested in reading one or more of the following, which contain similar messages and warnings, but in a slightly better way: Ayaan Hirsi Ali's "Heretic"; Brigitte Gabriel's "They Must Be Stopped"; Kenneth Timmerman's "Preachers of Hate"; Geert Wilders' "Marked for Death: Islam's War Against the West and Me; Peter Bergen's "Holy War, Inc."; Glen Beck's "It IS About Islam"; "Milton Viorst's "Storm From the East"; Robert Baer's "The Devil We Know"; Michael Scheuer's "Marching Toward Hell"; Mark Steyn's "America Alone"; and George Friedman's "America's Secret War: Inside the Hidden Worldwide Struggle Between America and Its Enemies".

s2orc | 1] \ {0}. Our work thus gives the first result on the rate of convergence covering the continuous case for some homogeneous kernels.
For the case λ < 0 we follow the ideas found in [7], but for the case λ ∈ (0, 1] the proof is much more difficult and the calculations are faced in a completely different way. Namely we use the Itô formula for an approximation of the absolute value function and handle very delicately the resulting terms.
The paper is organized as follows: in Section 2 we give the notation and definitions we use in this document, in Section 3 we state our main result. The proof is developed in Sections 4, 5 and 6. We give also a method to construct an initial condition for the Marcus-Lushnikov process in Section 7 and we conclude the document giving some technical details which are useful all along the paper in Appendix A.
Notation, Assumptions and Definitions
In this section we present our assumptions, give the definition of weak solutions to Smoluchowski's coagulation equation and then we recall the dynamics of the Marcus-Lushnikov process.
Notation 2.1. -We denote by M + the space of non-negative Radon measures on (0, +∞). For a measure µ and a function φ, we set µ(dx) , φ(x) = +∞ 0 φ(x)µ(dx). We also define the operator A for all measurable functions φ : (0, +∞) → R, by
(2.1) (Aφ)(x, y) = φ(x + y) − φ(x) − φ(y) ∀ (x, y) ∈ (0, +∞) 2 .
Finally, we will use the notation x ∧ y = min{x, y} and x ∨ y = max{x, y} for (x, y) ∈ (0, +∞) 2 .
We consider a coagulation kernel K : (0, +∞) × (0, +∞) → [0, +∞), symmetric i.e. K(x, y) = K(y, x) for (x, y) ∈ (0, +∞) 2 . We further assume it belongs to W 1,∞ (ε, 1/ε) 2 for every ε ∈ (0, 1) and one of the following conditions ∀ (x, y) ∈ (0, +∞) 2 :
λ ∈ (−∞, 0), K(x, y) ≤ κ 0 (x + y) λ and x λ + y λ |∂ x K(x, y)| ≤ κ 1 x λ−1 y λ , (2.2) λ ∈ (0, 1], K(x, y) ≤ κ 0 (x + y) λ and x λ ∧ y λ |∂ x K(x, y)| ≤ κ 1 x λ−1 y λ , (2.3) λ ∈ (0, 1], K(x, y) ≤ κ 0 (x ∧ y) λ and x λ ∧ y λ |∂ x K(x, y)| ≤ κ 1 x λ−1 y λ , (2.4)
for some positive constants κ 0 and κ 1 . We refer to [7] for a list of physical kernels satisfying conditions (2.2) and (2.3). Remark that for any λ ∈ (−∞, 1] \ {0}, K(x, y) = (x + y) λ satisfies (2.2) or (2.3).
Definition 2.2. -Consider λ ∈ (−∞, 1] \ {0}.
For µ ∈ M + , we set:

reddit | I truly believe the outcome is inevitably a far greater degree of freedom and I'll tell you why... Fifth and most **critical.** I'll tell you what I have come to understand after hitting a depression similar to yours for the same reasons. You have allowed yourself to understand the value of decentralized freedom, but are still viewing it through a "centralized" lens. *Freedom will not be achieved because everyone believed and understood that it would work better.* That is "democracy" and "government" talking through you. That idea, that "everyone must believe" for there to be change, has been beaten into you your entire life and its not true. *People will end up going with the strongest opinion that benefits them the most.* The greater majority will only begin to understand or support freedom **after** they are already free. Which means socialism *has to collapse* so that its wastefulness and stupidity can no longer be excused or covered up. As long as its still running, and welfare checks still buy milk and lottery tickets, then it will keep oozing along like a giant cancerous blob. But when its foundations, its money, and its trade become so confused and distorted people will beg for an alternative. The only "always available" alternative they will have is to *ignore the crappy laws* and behave and trade in a way that gets them the most without people always wanting to beat the shit out of them... by being polite, honest, and treating others as equals, in other words, *freedom.* Freedom will be achieved when everyone *must* turn to the black market in order to survive. Then their foundations for thinking of the world will have been shaken, and they will grasp onto the simplest and strong belief system they can find. Sixth, technology will give us this. Yes, the internet and many other technologies have given the powerful new means of control, but it has given the normal citizenry a hundred fold the power to organize, learn, build, share, debate, and so on. And it has done so with an environment that is *extremely* difficult to control because of how quickly it can change. Do you think that anyone in the US would have even the *slightest* clue what is going on in Afghanistan without the internet? Just like money gave us trade and cooperation between religions and societies that that hated each other, just like the printing press spread knowledge and ideas and shifted the balance of powers around the world, just like cars and planes lightened the borders and shrank the world, the internet has been a miraculous step for giving us more freedom. And it is likely responsible for your depression, because your greater freedom makes you privy to horrific information that would not have been otherwise available. Technology is what empowers the average person and it has been slowly but surely pushing us toward a more free system of change. That's the key, what changes the fastest, has the best incentives, is sustainable, and will survive disasters? Being free is the answer, which | 512 |
StackExchange | to mimic outside calls and there should be no calls made to any outside service because your tests need to run regardless of outside services.
This totally makes sense....BUT
What about outside services changing? What good is a test, testing that my code works like it should if I will never know when it breaks because of the outside service being modified/updated/removed/deprecated/etc...
How can I reconcile this? The pseudocode is below
function post_tweet:
data = {"tweet":"tweetcontent"}
send request to twitter
receive response
return response
If I mock this there is no way I will be notified that twitter changed their API and now I have to update my test...
A:
There are different levels of testing.
Unit tests are testing, as you might guess from the name, a unit. Which is for example a function or a method, maybe a class. If you interpret it wider it might include a view to be tested with Djangos test client. Unittests never test external stuff like libraries, dependencies or interfaces to other Systems. Theses thing will be mocked.
Integration tests are testing if your interfaces and usage of outside libraries, systems and APIs is implemented properly. If the dependency changes, you will notice have to change your code and unit tests.
There are other levels of tests as well, like behavior tests, UI tests, usability tests. You should make sure to separate theses tests classes in your project.
Q:
Number Type from Oracle to Teradata
I need to replicate some tables of Oracle in Teradata.
I have a script that create the sql for the Teradata's table, so far everything worked fine but I have a small problem.
I look the information for the columns type in the table "all_tab_columns", but I have find that some NUMBER columns have data_precision and data_scale as NULL. So I can't replicate them in Teradata because the NUMBER type demands precision and scale, both greater than 0.
Has anyone worked with this or can give me an idea?
Thanks!
A:
You can define number or number(*) in Teradata, too.
Simply try it.
Q:
Block assignments not quite sequential?
With scalars, Block acts like Scheme's let*, that is, the assignments (appear to) happen sequentially:
Block[{x = 10, f = #^2 &, y = f@x}, y]
100
But with lists, it produces a surprise:
Block[{xs = {10, 20}, f = #^2 &, ys = f /@ xs}, ys]
{10, 20}
What's the explanation, please & thanks?
A:
The r.h.s of the assignments are evaluated sequentially. However, the symbols don't actually assume these OwnValues until the the evaluation of the body of Block begins.
Example:
In[8]:= Block[{a = (Print[{a, b, c}]; 1), b = (Print[{a, b, c}]; 2),
c = (Print[{a, b, c}]; 3)}, {a, b, c}]
During evaluation of In[8]:= {a,b,c}
During evaluation of In[8]:= {a,b,c}
During evaluation of In[8]:= {a,b,c}
Out[8]= {1, 2, 3}
Notice that a, b and c do not have their new values until we reach the body of the Block (its second argument).

She had always wanted to be Scarlett OHara, unconventional and brave, a woman who made her own rules. Unfortunately, she ended up coming off more like Celia Foote from The Help a pretty, ditsy caricature of a woman who was about as smart as tree bark.
My Review:
Clare James was a rather recent discovery for me and I am now a big fan and plan on working my way through her body of work. She has mad skills and her books generally contain all my favorite elements - romance, smart characters, clever dialog, witty banter, and deliciously steamy sensuality. Played is an entertaining story about a young woman who needed to find her footing, and she found it only after losing nearly everything else. Despite the heavy premise, the story was actually a light and quick read that was well written, entertaining, and enjoyable from beginning to end.

StackExchange | solution was to build the URL request just as the way the mentioned PHP client does. Almost everything was done by Restkit within the GCOAuth class, RKClient & RKRequest classes. All I had to do was to tweak so that the OAuth parameters are appended to the request URL. All my changes I have pushed to a forked code of Restkit in github. My changes specific to this OAuth module are commented with "// Raj OAuth:" which can be searched in the project.
Below is the code which I have successfully used to trigger and consume the webservice. For now I have provided an overloaded designated method for RKClient's -get:delegate: method, the same can be extended to all other available methods on need basis, I believe.
-(void)triggerOAuthRequest
{
NSString *urlResource = @"";
urlResource = @"/endpoint_path/endpoint.xml";
NSString *baseURL = @"http://your_domain_name.com/path_to_drupal_home_folder/";
NSString *consumerKey = @"YW9h6tUc*************";
NSString *consumerSecret = @"HUS2ALAC*************";
RKObjectManager* objectManager = [RKObjectManager objectManagerWithBaseURLString:baseURL];
[RKObjectManager setSharedManager:objectManager];
objectManager.client.OAuth1ConsumerKey = consumerKey;
objectManager.client.OAuth1ConsumerSecret = consumerSecret;
objectManager.client.OAuth1AccessToken = nil;
objectManager.client.OAuth1AccessTokenSecret = nil;
objectManager.client.authenticationType = RKRequestAuthenticationTypeOAuth1;
[objectManager.client get:urlResource
delegate:self
constructOAuthQueryParamsInURL:YES];
}
I also assume that sending this request is safe enough for the fact that my OAuth parameters are signed with the secret consumer key at the client end and after that the request is sent to the server, though the URL itself has the query parameters, I feel it is safe coz the oauth_signature is signed with secret consumer key which only the webserver can decrypt and check if the request is from authentic sources.
If you feel there is scope for any improvement please let me know.
Thanks,
Raj
Q:
Precompiled headers using boost libs takes very long to compile
I'm creating a software that relies on a lot of boost libs and, as compilation became slower and slower (minutes), I've packed all the libs used over and over in a precompiled header (say 20-ish boost libs and 20 std libs), hoping that it would solve the issue.
Today, I realized that a vanilla hello-world.cpp (that does not even includes the damn precompiled header) takes 15s to build when i compile with the precompiled header. The precompiled header is 300MB or so.
Hence, the questions are:
-is that kind of slowdown expected, for a precompiled header this size?
(I secretely hope that I made some kind of monstruous mistake and I'd be very happy if one of you could tell me that he routinely works with a 2GB precompiled header and things are smooth)
-if this kind of slowdown is expected, then I'm not convinced at all at the usefullness of a precompiled header. Am I missing something?
compiler:
gcc version 4.4.5 (Debian 4.4.5-8)
commandline:
g++ -include common-header.hpp -Winvalid-pch -c vanilla-hello-world.cpp
A:
packed all the libs used over and over in a precompiled header
This is your problem, just include what you need.
Each TU still has to consult this massive precomped header.

Finally, he finds it in himself to speak. “Izuku… Izuku Midoriya,” he says as Izuku begins to let him go slowly, arms still wrapped around his chest. He nods and grins, and Shouto blinks, tears slicing their way down his cheeks like knives, warm and sharp. He gently puts a hand to Izuku’s cheek. He’s so much shorter than him, he notices with a small smile. “Why are you here?”
“I came to see you,” Izuku says, still crying, smiling at him. He lets out a laugh. “That was hard, you live really far away!”
Shouto laughs too, still playing with his hair. “Izuku,” is all he says, still astonished.
“Yeah, it’s me. It’s me, Shouto. I’m here and I remember. I remember everything,” he says, grinning at him. Shouto takes in a deep breath, not letting himself cry any more, as he brushes strands of Izuku’s soft hair.
“How,” he starts but realizes how strained his voice actually is. He clears his throat and wipes his eyes, seeing Izuku much more clearly. He’s breathtaking. “How did you manage to get here?”
“I drank your _ kuchikamisake_,” he says innocently.
“You what…?” Shouto is petrified, his fingers freezing in Izuku’s hair.
“Yeah.”
Shouto blinks. “That’s disgusting, do you know where that was?”
Izuku’s cheek turn a bright pink and he lets go of Shouto, waving his arms around awkwardly. “I’m so sorry! Is it really that weird?!” He puts his hands to his face, embarrassed. “Oh, god, I’m really sorry, Shouto, I didn’t mean—”
And at that moment, you can hear him singing his thoughts out, it was like you’re having a flashback of all the dates, adventures and time you had with him, even the arguments and misunderstandings you both had. The feeling overwhelms you, everything is at its place, it feels so right to be with him.

Pile-CC | signed the document, demanding freedom of speech and the removal of hard-line Communist Party apparatchiks.
The manifesto angered Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, who ordered Warsaw Pact troops to invade Czechoslovakia to crush the reforms in August 1968.
To protest the invasion, Caslavska held a silent protest at the 1968 Olympic Games, held in October in Mexico City. During a medal ceremony, Caslavska looked down and away when the national anthem of the Soviet Union was played. Her subtle gesture won her respect from many compatriots, but scorn from Czechoslovakia's leaders.
WATCH: Vera Caslavska's Silent Protest At The 1968 Olympics
Following the 1968 Games, Caslavska faced persecution at home and was denied the right to work or travel. It wasn't until 1974 that she was allowed to work as a coach in Czechoslovakia.
After the fall of communism in 1989, Caslavska began to gain the official recognition she had been denied for so long. Vaclav Havel, the first post-communist Czechoslovak and then Czech president, named her as an adviser. Caslavska was elected president of the Czechoslovak and later of the Czech Olympic Committee.
She received the UN's Pierre de Coubertin Prize for promoting fair play in 1989 and was also awarded the Olympic Order.
Caslavska's death from pancreatic cancer came after a tough and lengthy battle, including an eight-hour operation in May 2015 and chemotherapy.
One of the first to announce Caslavska's death was the Czech journalist and author Pavel Kosatik in a Facebook post.
Sommerova told Czech Radio that the country had lost one of the "greatest Czechs we ever had."
Caslavska faced tribulations in her personal life as well.
Her marriage with Josef Odlozil, an athlete whom she married during the Mexico Games, ended in the 1980s. Her son, Martin, was found guilty of assault that led to his father's death in 1993. He was sentenced to four years in prison, but shortly thereafter pardoned by Havel.
At the time, Caslavska was treated for depression and withdrew from public life.

Our Syrian hammie jumped on this and after just a few tries, figured out how to use it. I'd say Bouja uses this equally as often as using the wheel. Seems sturdy, just make sure to put the feet directly on the bottom of the cage and cover them with a generous amount of bedding for stability. It does require a bit of floor space, I'd say the large us about the size of a teacup saucer.
Fits great

Studying for this test in cosmetology is a challenge. And when people hear that you're using flash cards to do it, they might think the cards are filled with hair styles that you have to identify or something. These flash cards are highly beneficial. Not only do they have all of the information on them that you need to know, but they also have the power to show others what you are studying. You can hand a card or two over in order to show people that you have to know quite a bit of information in order to do well on your test and move on to get a job. There aren't any hairstyle pictures at all! You can get the information that you need into your head effectively and you can teach others at the same time all using these flash cards.

We watched the film "Amish Grace" and wanted to explore the questions it raised on forgiveness and shunning further. The book was a great help in answering these questions, and also in giving an insight to the Amish way of life and their beliefs and customs.

Hysteresis loop of particles without calcination is in line with H 1 -type, whose dominant porous structure is cylindrical porous, whereas after calcination is included in H 2 -type, the porous structure has a narrow neck like an ink-bottle. The effect of calcination temperature on the pore size distribution profile of silica particles (Dv(r) to the porous volume differential dV(r)) is shown in Figure 6. The calcination treatment affected the particle size and particle pore size. As shown in Figure 6, micrographic silica particles calcined at 1,000 and 1,200 ºC; the higher the calcination temperature, the larger the particle size, as shown in Figure

YouTubeCommons | mind one of those." Because they're quite a light van and they're well built and stuff. And they got nice features and all the rest of the stuff. So he got it shipped over to WA and brought it down to the licensing center. And the licensing guy said, "Where's the gas certificate, the completion and compliance notice? And he was like, "I think it's up to standard. You just got to give me the number plate." And they were like, "No. No. No. I need to have that." Yeah, he called up the dealer in Melbourne and said "What's going on with that? How did you get it licensed? And I can't do it over here because I need some form or something." And the dealer allegedly said that, "Mate. It just have to... I just sent it off." So he had to get that fixed. The guy at the licensing center said, "You need a gas fitter who knows about this sort of stuff to have a look at it, and sign off on it. Right?" So he did a bit of a Google search of the best gas fitter in the world. And guess who he came up with. Yeah, not me. It was Steve from Nexus Gas. So he called him up, but Steve was too busy. And he said, "Well, maybe give Ben from Beautiful Plumbing. He's got a couple guys that work for him. So he might have capacity. So give him a call." So that's what happened. So he brought it over here. We had a look at it. Had a few things wrong with the gas pipe, it was actually steel. There was all screwed fittings together right down the whole unit. Right? So that had to be fixed. One of the hoses on the regulator is a new one with the black fitting which is... That's only just come in. So that was fair enough. Every fitting and cooker, any gas appliance needs to have certification from the Australian Gas Association. Now, if you don't have that, we as gas fitters, can't put it in. Same as plumbers, if you don't have the Wells' approval on a tap, we are the plumber. We are responsible for putting that. And if we put it in it's our fault, sort of thing. So we can't connect up anything that hasn't got the AGA tick of approval. And there's a directory that you can look on, and you can see the model number of the stove or fridge or cooker or whatever it is. And if it's on there, that means they've had it certified, and it's okay to go inside a van. So we search high in low for the cooker, and it's just not on the... We couldn't see it anywhere on the directory, so we couldn't hook it up. So this van here we've run a new copper lines. Also, the valves weren't to Australian Gas Association standard. So we've changed those valves over, put new ones of those on. But with the | 512 |

"No, when I was out talking with Becky and all, I saw him. I saw him and this woman kiss. So, uh..." Cas fidgeted with his fingers nervously.
"I'm sorry Cas..."
Jessica stood up, and hugged Castiel.
Cas didn't know how to feel, though he kept reminding himself that Dean was just a dude he met some hours ago.
Cas urged Jessica to go back to dancing with Sam, and after quite some persuasion, Jessica left, and returned back to Sam.
Castiel rubbed the back of his neck, and called to a waiter, who was serving wine. Castiel picked up two glasses, and downed both of them, until he felt a little shaky.
_Nice. So now I'm a old woman, drinking my worries away._
Castiel wasn't completely drunk though. His mind pondered over the various options he had to solve the issue. That's when a familiar set of green eyes landed on him.
Dean still looked a little lost, as he smiled at Cas, and sat on the chair infront of him.
"Hey Cas, sorry I got a little busy. Is something wrong?"
"No, just issues with work."
"Oh... Do you wanna, maybe, dance?"
Dean's face was irresistible, and so was his voice, but at that moment, Castiel didn't feel like moving.
Castiel shook his head, and Dean nodded in understanding.
His hand crept onto the table, and slowly onto Castiel's hand.
Cas looked down at Dean's hand over his own. Dean tried to press the middle of his palm gently, and it made Cas feel relieved, but the truth still hung over his head.
He quickly and reluctantly pulled his hands away, and kept them on his lap.
"So you're seeing someone..."
Cas asked, trying not to make it seem obvious.
Dean's face tensed, and he gulped, a little disappointed.
"I'm not..."
"Oh."
Cas scoffed.
"Cas? I'm not lying-"
Castiel stared right into Dean's eyes with a sharp look. A look that said ' _Don't lie to me_ '.
Dean faltered, looking immersed in a thought, and then he looked back up to Cas, with realisation.
"You saw us...?"
Cas swallowed with an unsettling feeling, his eyes now moving away from Dean.
"Cas, I just- its not what you think it is."
Dean started.
Leo said nothing as Elliot moved downwards, peppering kisses in between words.
"I love your smile, and your laugh," he pressed his lips to the pulse point on his throat, "I love the way your eyes light up when you get what you want," teeth gently, carefully nipping at the soft skin below them, "I love the way you never treated me like I was something to be coddled, but as an equal," he gave a firm suck to the patch of skin he'd been nibbling on, "I love how you saved me, you helped me remember who I was, you kept me in line, you did what was best for me until the very end."
He pulled back for a moment, admiring the already-blossoming bruise at the junction of Leo's neck and shoulder. He stared | 512 |

Her parents can’t help much with putting her through college and FASFA being the stingy assholes they are. She’s thought about getting a cheap older model, but every time she thought she liked one, she realized it wouldn’t be able to withstand the journey from Chicago to LA so often.

Kagami doesn’t know what to say to that.

Lydia is surprised they don’t somehow wind up at the basketball court again today, the day passing by with the trio doing touristy activities instead.
They go to Koishikawa Korakuen to walk through the plum blossom trees—Lydia takes many pictures, but it’s a bit awkward as Lydia wants to hold on to Kagami, but keeps remembering Aomine. They mostly stroll in a line, eyes up to the trees, while Aomine complains to Kagami about how cutesy it is.
She begs them to take her to both a dog and cat café, and they reluctantly comply, remembering how much her plane tickets cost. They don’t eat there though, Lydia’s too focused on the animals to think about food. So for lunch, they eat street food and Lydia complains about how full she is but goes back at least thrice for more taiyaki and takoyaki. Aomine does the same. Kagami doesn’t even take a break from eating.
They take Lydia out to a traditional restaurant for dinner, chuckling at her determination to sit on the cushion correctly. She kind of gets the hang of it, but her legs start cramping and she gives up.
They take a walk around the city center to show Lydia the bright lights of Tokyo before heading off for a quick karaoke session. They don’t get back to the apartment until ten.
Lydia is the last one to shower today, refusing to go until the end of Spirited Away—per Aomine’s request fresh out the shower. Kagami rolls his eyes at her, glancing at the TV once more with a pout before leaving the front room.
They move to the bedroom, Lydia grabbing her pajamas as Aomine takes off his tank top by the closet and Kagami plops down on the side of the bed.
Aomine smiles and says something in with a wave.
Kagami raises an eyebrow at him, translating, “He says have a nice shower.”
She giggles at them before slipping into the bathroom. She’s not sure if she saw it correctly or not, but she thinks she sees Aomine wink at her in that split second.
Stepping into the shower, her thoughts roam free. She turns on the water, thinking about this weekend and her decision to try this out. She’s still not sure, but she thinks now maybe this was the better decision. The potential future happiness that she imagined on the plane to Tokyo feels more tangible | 512 |

Hi there,
there's only three real people on this list now, which is logical since
it hasn't been publicized yet. I have set up the gmane archives, but for
those to start working we need to send something to the list.
Which is just what the purpose of this mail is ;-)
Once the robots have started buzzing, I'll set up a proper page at
plone.org and we can kick off for real. But getting gmane to work
properly is vital, so therefore this noise.

sfu-socc | the bankers who are required by law to exercise such vigilance.</p><p>Why is this happening? Because all of these people have been designated as 'politically exposed domestic persons' (PEDP) under the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act. Why should they be subjected to this intrusive procedure for 20 years after they leave office? No idea. And why should their children also be under this regime for 20 years? Equally puzzling.</p><p>In fact, I can think of an answer. It's because all this was put in place with no one having any idea it was happening. This is hardly surprising given that it was buried in the massive omnibus budget bill of 2014 known as Bill C-31. Equally troubling, most people wouldn't care anyway.</p><p>We have witnessed such an unprecedented erosion of our privacy rights in this country in the name of the war on terror, the war on crime and other fear-mongering political initiatives, that this Orwellian scheme managed to sneak by with little or no public attention, as far as I can tell.</p><p>The only reason it came to my attention is that starting some three years ago, two different banks asked two of my children these types of questions, threatening to close their bank accounts if they did not respond. Under my advice, one of them did not respond within the required time (about a week), as I wanted to look into it more closely; the bank did close her account and only reopened it after she answered the questions (needless to say, she was not all that impressed with my advice).</p><p>At that time, there was no such thing as PEDP. Both banks took the position that they had to question my children because I was a politically exposed foreign person (PEFP). They were wrong. I was not, and had never been 'a judge in a foreign country' or anything else falling under the definition of a PEFP. It was while in the process of wanting to clear that up that I came across the newly enacted provisions dealing with 'politically exposed domestic persons' and realized that the future had caught up with me. I am now covered by the law, and so will my children be when the regulations get cabinet approval.</p><p>Compared with the plight of Syrian refugees, this is not catastrophic. It's just another one of the ridiculous, expensive, useless procedures that slowly erode rights while giving the false impression of enhancing security. It feeds into the perception that people who have nothing to hide should not be concerned about such things (such as Bill C-51, the anti-terrorism law passed in May).</p><p>We don't wear clothes simply because we have something to hide; or lower the blinds in our bedrooms, or close our office doors while on the phone, or seal our letters, or use passwords on our computers. We hide certain things not because they are illegal, or bad, but because they are private.</p><p>I have no idea why we should want to keep an eye on the bank books of Supreme Court judges for 20 years after they retire. | 512 |

_Sam was laughing jovially, and despite him being the tallest person playing limbo, he was in, what seemed to be, the final few rounds of the game._
_Benny gazed at Sam, watching how his legs were bent and how he didn't falter, even though his back was parallel to the ground and there is no way that anybody can have a center of gravity that low and bend that far back._
_Sam caught his gaze as he was going through and gave his a little wave before making it under the bar, but just barely._
_The shorter girl won, just two rounds later, but in Sam's defense, the bar had been lowered to the point where even the part of his legs that were below his knees wouldn't be able to get under._
_That night, Sam and Benny got back together again, romantically, briefly, and made out on the couch before passing out._
Benny waggles his eyebrows, and Sam tries to match his movements with his chest, but nearly falls. Benny puts his hand under Sam's back and brings him back up and brings their lips together.
He puts his hands on Sam's hips and Sam gives a little wiggle which shifts them up to his waist. Sam's hands slide over Benny's shoulders and down his back. Benny's arms grip him closer and his hands are on Sam's back.
“ _ **Sam's back is wonderful”,** Benny thought._
_Benny watched as the muscles move d underneath his shirt and as his arms raised and as he shed his shirt._
_Soccer practice. That was what Sam had said he'd be coming to watch, since the game that they were originally going to have that day w as cancelled. However, nobody mentioned that after the practice, the student council would be holding a “Fashion Show” to support the fine arts department. All who attended the practice happily paid five dollars and moved to the gym to watch._
_All of the soccer boys were roped into dressing up in whatever the council had prepared for them, after a shower of course._
_At the end, all of the boys walked back down and stripped their shirts off._
_Benny acknowledged that there were many attractive people on the university's soccer team, but Sam and he were together again at that point, so he mostly only had eyes for him._

In his main room, he saw the sheets of his bed pulled half off, pooled in a circular pile on the floor. As he approached, he could see little Hepta's ears poking out from the center. The boy looked up at him, and he noticed a different fur brush in his hands as he sat curled up in the makeshift nest of blanket, clean socks and a discarded bodysuit.
"What are you doing?"

He gave a heavy sigh, wondering why he bothered to ask, and took a look around his room. There were several drawers left open, and some of his and Haxus' belonging left strewn about. He left the boy to his nest and began to tidy up the room. He managed to get the last drawer shut when Haxus strode out in a towel with Sin hot on his heels. Upon seeing Hepta, Sin scurried off towards him instead.
"Damage report?" Haxus' tone was serious, though Sendak knew he was anything but, in this moment.
"Minimal," Sendak responded in turn, moving closer and setting his hand against his Lieutenant's exposed lower back, "The boys will live to see another day."

But, luckily for Tom, Tord had some semblance of patience, especially when it came to fixing Tom's brokenness. Scars are not all fresh, they are not all physical wounds. This is something Tord knew far too well, having been made to bear witness to Tom's steady unraveling resolve. Nothing could break Tord like Tom, but no amount of time or affection will perfectly mend the cracks decorating Tom's heart like flashing warning signs. But Tord was not looking for perfect- he was looking for Tom, his Tom.
"Do you trust me, Thomas?" Tord's tone is neutral as he suddenly starts, unwilling to provoke an answer from his partner, lest it be one that isn't true. Confusion knots Tom's brow.
"Of fucking course I do, Commie," sneers Tom, a soft glitter sparking in the starless skies of his eyes. It makes Tord's heart flutter in his chest like a butterfly eagerly awaiting to emerge from its cocoon. Tom continues, staring blankly forward at the plain wall, "if I didn't trust you, I doubt I would have been letting you sleep in my bed all this time."

Odd Future, the art collective belonging to Ocean and nine others, clashed with Brown when what was supposedly a complimentary tweet led to a retaliatory tweet by Ocean. “I [expletive] with Frank Ocean! Reminds me of a young James Fauntleroy or Kevin Cossum,” wrote Brown. “I [expletive] with chris brown, reminds me of a young sisqo or ike turner,” responded Ocean — a strong sting, but no physical harm done.
Yet, the internet virally exploded early Thursday morning when a quick 35-second clip filmed an annoyed Ocean followed in his car by three taunting “men.” Claiming to be the cousins of Brown, they can be seen pulling up alongside Ocean towards a stoplight while yelling “Catch the fade!” Odd Future’s leader, Tyler the Creator, later took to Twitter to end the feud following another near-physical altercation between parties. Brown agreed: “it’s stupid.”Entourages have their cons and pros. But more times than naught, they’re referred to as “goons” for a reason — to intimidate. They’re to serve as protection on two accounts: first as a physical barrier; second as a “root” or “grounding” from home; to juxtapose any amount of acquired fame. They’re known to be the most loyal and dedicated. The issue lies in the fact that they usually have no honest supportive role in the vision businessmen and corporations have for an upcoming or established artist.
In the same light of negativity, hip-hop’s hopeful new favorite white girl may be in the same line of trouble when it comes to her Mob Crew. Kreayshawn, who recently blew up in a matter of weeks following the success of her “Gucci, Gucci” YouTube video, has had more articles written on her friend, V-Nasty, than her inked deal with Columbia Records. Hailing from Oakland, California, the director sparked attention as a white female rapper, which ironically became the bulk of her recent criticism.
The pot initially began to boil after Kreayshawn dropped the n-word on Twitter referring to a DMX lyric. Following the remark, she retorted with the excuse that it was simply a quote from a song: “I never said it in any of my music,” she stated in an interview. But her friend V-Nasty, whom she refers to as her sister, has been filmed dropping the n-bomb religiously. Once a video surfaced showcasing the side-kick using the word constantly in a freestyle, complaints piled in and the video has since been removed.
With the already heavily debated n-word amongst the African-American community, V-Nasty could be damaging her friend’s career that has yet to fully begin. And for Chris Brown… well, he may be crippling any chances of regaining respect…again. The purpose of an entourage is to have someone around who is familiar to you and who may help you on your climb to the top. Maybe it’s time to do like the olden days and simply send money home… lest we forget Cheddar Bob (from 8 Mile) mistakenly shot himself in his own foot…

These are obviously classics. But there are two problems. The first one is the fit. After long periods of wear they start to rub against the side of the front part of my foot. This is probably due to how narrow they are. What I wonder is why my classic black and white converse chucks do not cause this issue. The second problem is that they make a sound when you are walking. Sounding something like "thwap thwap" which is from cloth smacking against the rubber portion of the shoe. I don't wear these often due to these two problems.
cute book
This was a fun Christmas book that my children enjoyed reading and listening to throughout the Christmas season.
* I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for an honest review
The details of the figurines were excellent. However, for the price you pay the packaging should be like in the picture and its not. Some one should redo these to be 6-8 inches at least. I now also need to by some kind of car or trophy case for my daughter to keep them in. She will be excited nonetheless, simply because she loves M.J.!! But come on now give us parents our monies worth!
A fun adventure of the imagination
I absolutely loved this book. I have tried many of the self-teach books out there for other products and I have not found one that is as well written and easy to follow as this one. Before I purchased Photo Shop Elements 4.0, I knew nothing....zip.....nada about the program and how it worked. I was so impressed with what you can do with this software and the instructional training manual was excellent. I would highly recommend it for anyone who is new to this product or for anyone who wants to take their photo editing to the next level. It's pretty amazing.
In this skillfully woven tale you are quickly drawn into the lives and emotions of Larson's realistic characters - two young lovers separated by circumstances rooted in culture and politics. The author brings an intensity to the page, moves along at a steady pace, and keeps the reader engaged right to the end. This is a timely story of provocative complexities involved with illegal immigration, told through those caught in its clenches. A fantastic read!
Heavily pigmented, which is a good thing, but the chalk will stain clothes.
The story line was nonexistent and the dialogue was redundant and trite. If you are into Sadism, you might enjoy the book, but I found it tedious and juvenile. Nothing very erotic going on here.

Gutenberg (PG-19) | it but remains to memorize the period during which we were battling
for the sacred cause of the Union. Although we have not seen the closing
contest of this sanguinary strife, yet I feel confident that we have done
our share towards securing a good end, and nobly has the old battery
sustained the honor and name of Rhode Island. Of all the light batteries
Little Rhody sent to the seat of war, none was ever equal to the old
Second, or Battery A, in efficiency, endurance, and the intelligence of
the men. Truly did an officer remark: "My men can fight without officers."
It is no easy task to give a true and satisfactory record of our three
years service;--only the entreaties of my comrades induced me to undertake
it. It is a natural wish to possess a copy of the records, to refer in
future days to those of the past; it will not only be of interest to the
members of the battery, but also to their friends and relatives.
Hardly had the first call for three months men been responded to, by
sending the First Regiment, Col. Burnside, along with the First Battery,
Capt. Charles H. Tompkins, before the military authorities of Rhode Island
contemplated to organize another regiment of infantry and a second
battery. Enrollments progressed rapidly, and but a few days after, not
less than four hundred men were desirous of linking their fortunes with
the battery; the armory on Benefit street was the rendezvous of men from
sunrise till late in the night, eager to acquire the most indispensable
knowledge of military tactics, foot drill, and manual of the piece, as
speedily as possible. Some men were so anxious as to come before daylight,
and would not leave in the evening until the armorer persuaded them to. We
expected to get mustered into the three months service; but the federal
government, by issuing a call for 75,000 men for not less than three
years, left no other alternative but to serve the said term. Messrs.
Parkhurst and Albert Munroe were untiring in their exertions to complete
the efficiency of the battery. At last the day that was to transform us
from citizens into soldiers, arrived, the requisite number to man the
battery being selected out of four hundred, by Surgeon Wheaton. On the
fifth day of June, 1861, at five o'clock, P. M., we were mustered into the
service of the United States for three years, unless sooner discharged. A
few days afterwards, the battery, together with the Second Regiment,
infantry, marched to Dexter Training Ground. Tents were pitched, and the
people of Providence enjoyed the unusual spectacle of a field-camp, of
reveilles, dress-parades, firing of artillery by sunrise and sunset, of
tattoo and taps. The unusual sight attracted multitudes of men, women and
children, day after day. While in camp, mounted battery drills wore away
the hours of impatience; men in those days were eager for the fray. During
our stay on Dexter Ground, all of our battery carriages were exchanged for

Goal:
Configure one or multiple Public IP(s) from OVH server block (51.x.x.128/28) via VTI device on home router (then I will make 1:1 NAT there for assigning the IP to server behind router) or directly on device behind home router if possible.

added the route for a public IP (which I want to route to home) via vti0 device
~# ip r
...
51.x.x.134 dev vti0 scope link
Site B (a choice between one of two options):
Route Public IP to Home Router
Add wanted Public IP to eth0(or vti0) device and create route table with mark and default gateway via vti0, then mark sourced output traffic by iptables.
or
Route Public IP to device behind Home Router
Create a DNAT: Public IP->NATed Device
and then create route table for default gateway via vti0 for selected NATed device (all traffic from device to Internet is routed via VPN)
So, I got what I needed. The next step is to set the right output IP address from the server on the site A (now the traffic exits from the main A-sited server IP address).
If my solution is not the best practice, please let me know.
Are there any other ways to accomplish my assumption? Perhaps private BGP peering will be a solution??

I know Mitch is experimenting with
operations attached to layers, but I don't
know wether they are along thse lines, or more
like recording all operations mad in a layer,
in an early quest to "non destructive editting".
Maybe there is a roadmap for a similar
thing already, that I am not aware of - but
having the "sets of operations" behave
as regular GIMP items that can be used - and
being able to pick/create then at the layers dialog
bucket fill tool options, export dialogs, could
be a nice way of enabling the possibilities
of GEGL and non-destructive editing to end users.

Hello,
Joren and Robinson made me aware of a problem with the wiki, ownCloud
and other sites on the kermit server using SQL backends, including the
main website. The SQL connections were all in use by the MediaWiki
upgrade script that has been running for a few hours already over the
wikihelp instance, which seem to have an _extremely_ large cache (a
magnitude of the regular wiki cache).
Sorry for these issues - we will try to fine-tune MySQL again (already
invested a fair amount of time in doing so before), and if that doesn't
help, we probably need to invest in some more hardware.
We're growing heavily these days - which is good news, of course, but
has even higher infra demands... to give you a number: SQL sucked up to
~30 GB of RAM.
Note that neither the mailing lists, nor the downloads are affected, as
both are on other machines.
It's 9:30pm here now, so I just interrupted the cache purging and let
the maintenance script finish without that, so we should be back to
normal soon.
Sorry for the inconveniences,
Florian
Since I was cited on the slide deck below, I think I owe the community some
status.
- My MSc research had a turnaround, so I will not need Zab for now . ( But I
will still need Zookeeper)
This means that the implementation is on hold for while.
- I change the implementation strategy. Instead of deconstructing Zookeeper
like the Harvey Mudd Clinic team did , I decided to code almost from
scratch, reusing some code and design from ZooKeeper e MultiZab. The
rational behind this decision was to have smaller and condensed code that I
could test. So I stopped working on https://github.com/aoriani/zab ( I
renamed it to https://github.com/aoriani/zookeeper-zab)
- I did no publish the code yet . I was expecting to do so when I finish the
code. Right now I have atomic broadcast working, but no logging and
therefore no recover. Anyway, if someone is interested in the code and want
to collaborate, let me know.

Q:
How to programmatically get the address of the heap on Linux
I can get the address of the end of the heap with sbrk(0), but is there any way to programmatically get the address of the start of the heap, other than by parsing the contents of /proc/self/maps?
A:
I think parsing /proc/self/maps is the only reliable way on the Linux to find the heap segment. And do not forget that some allocators (including one in my SLES) do use for large blocks mmap() thus the memory isn't part of the heap anymore and can be at any random location.
Otherwise, normally ld adds a symbol which marks the end of all segments in elf and the symbol is called _end. E.g.:
extern void *_end;
printf( "%p\n", &_end );
It matches the end of the .bss, traditionally the last segment of elf. After the address, with some alignment, normally follows the heap. Stack(s) and mmap()s (including the shared libraries) are at the higher addresses of the address space.
I'm not sure how portable it is, but apparently it works same way on the Solaris 10. On HP-UX 11 the map looks different and heap appears to be merged with data segment, but allocations do happen after the _end. On AIX, procmap doesn't show heap/data segment at all, but allocations too get the addresses past the _end symbol. So it seems to be at the moment quite portable.
Though, all considered, I'm not sure how useful that is.
P.S. The test program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
char *ppp1 = "hello world";
char ppp0[] = "hello world";
extern void *_end; /* any type would do, only its address is important */
int main()
{
void *p = calloc(10000,1);
printf( "end:%p heap:%p rodata:%p data:%p\n", &_end, p, ppp1, ppp0 );
sleep(10000); /* sleep to give chance to look at the process memory map */
return 0;

I got one for like 5 bucks during a class action lawsuit against straight talk. I threw it out. I had some weird thing happen with straight talk for like a year though.

You should really work on opening yourself up to other people you trust. Have you had this conversation about romantic sparks with your close friends? That would be a perfect start. You need to learn that it is okay to display and show your emotions, or deeper feelings to people. Like you said, its a turn off for the opposite sex when you dont. Sometimes I feel like I have a sense for trustworthy people, and can get comfortable around people pretty quickly. So for me its pretty easy to open up and share things with friends and even girls im starting to date. I used to be very shy too. So it is something that you can change about yourself, but it WILL take time if youve never been this way. Like I said, start with your close friends. I also agree with the advice that you can also tell this to a girl youre dating on like the 3rd date. Be honest about it, say its harder for you to open up emotionally, but its something youre working on. They will respect that.

SONG AND DANCE earned Bernadette Peters the first of two Tony Awards. The musical SONG AND DANCE is actually two different programs - 'Tell Me on a Sunday' and the dance piece 'Variations'. 'Tell Me on a Sunday' is the story of an English hat designer Emma who follows her American boyfriend back to the states, only to discover heartache and unhappiness. 'Tell Me on a Sunday' was originally an album of songs performed by Marti Webb, later expanded into the stage show SONG AND DANCE in the double-bill with 'Variations'.
Bernadette Peters perfectly inhabits the character of Emma, and while her English accent occasionally falters, she conveys the rollercoaster of Emma's emotions beautifully. Andrew Lloyd-Webber and Don Black's incisive and entertaining score includes numbers that have become standards like "Take That Look Off Your Face", "Unexpected Song" and "Tell Me on a Sunday".
Even more beautiful is the haunting "Nothing Like You've Ever Known". There are also great character pieces like "Capped Teeth and Caesar Salad", "English Girls" and the "Letter" songs.
As several other reviewers have noted, sound quality is dreadfully muffled, but this is overshadowed by the tour-de-force performance of the amazing Miss Bernadette Peters.

After zipping through the first book of the Madison Square series I knew I needed to read this one right away. I was already loving Sean and had to see his story unfold. Unfortunately for me I didn't have as much reading time as I would've liked and it took me longer to read this. On the other hand, it gave me more time to savor Madison and Sean's love, and all the anguish that came with it. There was plenty of drama involved to keep this unlikely couple apart but when together they sizzled. I'm loving this series and this author's writing style!

Luckily, Owen’s reflexes enabled him to snatch her hand into his own, holding the weather dial for support in the other. He couldn’t let her fall. He wouldn’t let himself.
“Help me!” She screamed, her voice trembling with fear.
It hurt, your entire body dangling from a tall building. He couldn’t have ever anticipated the strength needed. But what was worst was the view of the drop, imminent and deathly. And, the view of the innocent child about to meet it.
Her screams had caught the attention of the dinosaur, it’s head peeking up and carefully edged closer to them.
“Keep hold of my hand, Mais. Do not let go!” He ordered her, his brain exploding, heart thumping. What could he do? They were finished, either way.
And then he heard it. That clattering, incessant banging of metal to metal. The predator heard it too, it’s head flicking in the direction behind itself. And Owen’s heart burst with pride when he saw Claire, standing awkwardly on her injured leg, banging a gun into the ladder of the roof - diverting the dinosaur's attention from them.
Any other person would have screamed when seeing her former lover and a new innocent child that had somehow waltzed into her life, hanging off a roof, but Claire knew how to handle a dinosaur. She knew that would cause the worst outcome of the situation - an outcome she could not, ever imagine herself facing. With the dinosaur now pounding over to her, she watched Owen pull Maisie back up onto the roof. Relief that flooded her was quickly short-lived when she realised she was certainly about to get eaten.
The idea to use Owen and the tiny brunette as a target may have seemed stupid but she had a plan. The red laser bore straight through Owen’s chest, the raptor’s attention suddenly diverted. All she had to do was know Owen understood her plan, and he looked at her, eyes delving deep into her soul. When he walked closer to the dinosaur, holding his arms out in surrender, she knew he could read her mind. He understood. Because that was who they were, two people who would always understand each other. Always help one another.
And in a flash, a million things happened. The raptor pounced at Owen, who in turn slid under its body and off the roof, closer to Claire. The dinosaur turned for the former raptor trainer and as a result, caused the roof to shatter. They thought the raptor would go with the roof, but she held on.
Claire screamed for Maisie. The tiny girl wouldn’t let go of the weather dial at the end of the roof, paralysed in fear. She screamed and screamed but she wouldn’t move. When the | 512 |

MUCH more accessible than his first essay collection (How to be Alone), I damn near loved everything in this book. Franzen writes so well that he compels you to care, even if you're not agreeing with him (about technology or The Gambler). I felt moved by almost every piece and never knew what to expect next as it jumped around from lecture to New Yorker essay to manifesto to book review to personal history and back. By the end you find yourself to start agreeing with him and hoping he continues to write nonfiction.
Perfection - even better than the first - the Walshes are hilarious and Patrick and Andy's banter is excellent - hot and sizzling read in one go !!

Never shall I forget the nocturnal silence that deprived me forever.

Never shall I forget those things, even were I condemned to live as long as God Himself.

Paint Sprayer
The beauty of paint sprayers is they quickly apply an even coat of paint or stain without leaving behind ugly brush or roller-overlap marks. Home centers sell handheld sprayers for only $50, but they have drawbacks. You have to refill them constantly, and because you're holding the entire unit loaded with a container of paint, it gets heavy. Plus, they're a royal pain to clean. And if you don't do a good job cleaning, don't plan on using it again—the old paint will clog up the mechanics.
Commercial HVLP sprayers take a little practice to use properly, but once you have the technique down, you can get a professional-looking finish. "It's a lot finer spray. This is what professional use. When it dries, it looks different," Phelon notes. "You can paint a whole room in an hour, if that. All you've got is a gun in your hands and 50 feet of hose."

The audience: First of all, if you are under USCF 1700-1800 (FIDE1600-1700), you don't need any other resource besides this to work with the Classical Dutch, which is almost 100% the focus of this DVD. He gives a model game, the abstract ideas, and a few options in certain positions that are somewhat important to know. With this DVD, you can play the Dutch. The others who will be suited by this DVD are, for example, players over that rating range who want to know what the Dutch is really about, in order to know whether theyd like to study the opening seriously. As Williams says in the DVD, you must be brave to play this system, because some of the positions are bonkers, as he says. I think players above the given rating range who will not be served well by this DVD. You are in luck, though, because Simon has written a book version that goes into much more detail on the lines. (Im reading it now.)
In terms of general quality, the DVD is really well organized and put together. I think his experience with ChessBase, coaching, and producing lots of content has made him an excellent organizer, presenter, and he has become a very good pedagogical thinker. So many GMs fail to acknowledge where U2200- and U2000-level players might have questions, and I don't feel this is the case with Simon, which adds tremendous amounts of value to his presentation. Keep in mind that GM Williams production, called GingerGM, is quite a bit rougher than something like ChessBase, but its not bad. Just don't have the highest expectations, and youll be set. The video quality is sufficient, and he has a strange desire to have a physical board set up, as he goes through the lines. That could make it hard for those who want to go through the material on a small laptop, because the computer-generated display board thats actually visible is relatively small compared to the whole video image.
As far as the lines he covers, as a player of the Dutch with 40 standard OTB games, 30+ rapid OTB games, and nearly 1,000 blitz games in practice OTB and online, I feel hes covered all of my major questions, as a player dancing about 1800 USCF (1700 FIDE). He looks at the stock responses of every major variation Ive dealt with in the Classical Dutch, provides some novelties in certain interesting positions, and hes given some solid advice on very annoying lines, like 2. Bg5 and the Staunton Gambit. He also supplies some strategic rules that lower rated players will find to be lanterns through darkness, I think. Without taking his suggestions and advice into more games, I really cant tell you what hes left out, which suggests hes done an excellent job putting this product together.

U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice speaks to reporters after a Security Council meeting on the situation in Libya, Wednesday, March 16, 2011 at United Nations headquarters. (AP Photo)
United Nations (AP) - Supporters of a no-fly zone over Libya called for a vote Thursday on a U.N. resolution aimed at preventing Moammar Gadhafi's planes from carrying out aerial attacks, while the United States, in a striking reversal, pushed for broader action to protect civilians from ground and sea attacks as well.
U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice said the Obama administration is "fully focused on the urgency and the gravity of the situation on the ground," where Gadhafi's fighters are intensifying attacks and heading toward rebel-held Bengazi, Libya's second-largest city, and is working "very hard" for a vote on Thursday.
"We are interested in a broad range of actions that will effectively protect civilians and increase the pressure on the Gadhafi regime to halt the killing and to allow the Libyan people to express themselves in their aspirations for the future freely and peacefully," Rice told reporters after more than eight hours of closed-door talks Wednesday by Security Council ambassadors. "Those include discussion of a no-fly zone, but the U.S. view is that ... a no-fly zone has inherent limitations in terms of protection of civilians at immediate risk."
According to a council diplomat who spoke on condition of anonmyity because the talks were private, Rice said the goal should be expanded from creating a no-fly zone to protecting civilians, meaning the international community must have all the tools it needs including authorization to use planes, troops or ships to stop attacks by Gadhafi's air, land and sea forces.
President Barack Obama and his top national security aides had been cautious with calls for a no-fly zone, which the Pentagon described as a step tantamount to war. The U.S. fears involvement in Libya could further strain its already stretched military and entangle the country in an expensive and messy conflict in another Muslim country.

Celsius is my new favorite drink.
The Sparkling Watermelon is probably a great flavor to switch over to Celsius if you're used to regular Coke. All the sweetness but with none of the bad health considerations.
Since my local supermarket didn't have Watermelon, I've also tried the Sparkling Orange, Sparkling Cola, Sparkling Wild Berry, and non Sparkling Raspberry Acai. At first, I didn't like them as much as the sweeter Watermelon. But as my taste buds adjusted to not having as much sugar or aspartame in my diet. Now I like them just as much. So, even if you don't like the more subtle flavors the first time you try them. Be open to trying them again as your taste buds adjust.
Due to the light carbonation, I prefer the Sparkling versions. Which is what made Coke and Diet Coke so hard to quit. Celsius is a great way to break that bad habit and replace it with a more healthy version. And this is the best price I've seen.

Your reply raised a point that I find interesting. Why I deeply want all that ? I think that thinking about it again bring me closer to the answer : I don't wanna die. And this lifestyle doesn't bring stress on its own. I mean, on a day-to-day basis, it's pretty ok. Living like that is not stressful on its own. What's stressful is knowing that this lifestyle is not sustainable. That sticking to it is not something one can do for its whole life. And that it eventually will most probably lead to death earlier than it should, one way or another. And I don't wanna die. Your two cents are worth a lot to me.

No. Effectiveness doesn't determine morality. Just because you "responded" (whatever that means) to being hit doesn't mean it was okay to hit you. Imagine saying this about anyone else besides a child. Imagine a husband saying, "Well, my wife respects me more and behaves better when I hit her, so..." Or an employer about his employee, or even a master about his **pet dog**, for fucks sake. If it's wrong to hit an adult for any reason, then it's wrong to hit a child. And the fact that you "behaved better" to avoid being hit again doesn't justify jack shit. A child will do anything to avoid *starvation* too; does this justify starving a child as a form of discipline? How about waterboarding?

Nonetheless, the novels’ depiction of sexuality in the commune was my main quibble and disappointment with the novel. Sarah Hall’s depiction of lesbian sexuality, and particularly the sexualised speech and behaviour in the commune is often highly unrealistic and jarring, based on some of the worst cultural stereotypes and myths about lesbians. It was often seriously out of character and antithetical to radical lesbian feminism. I can only assume that Sarah Hall has little personal knowledge of lesbian feminists, making the flaw strikingly obvious to me whereas it may not be to the general reading public.
Also, I didn’t see the point of the army to be terrorists, but to make a statement – to make the sacrifice. Give me Liberty, or Give Me Death. The purpose of the ‘Last Stand’ of the Carhullan Army at the end wasn’t to win. It was to spark the silent objecters and apathetic masses into civil disobedience, through forcing the use of massive overwhelming military force to crush a small bunch of women. Civilians were inspired by it, and engaged in riots too.
They did well, holding the city for 53 days, and wiping out most of military targets and central records facilities before going down. An epic war-story, but is that only valid and credible – when its told about men?

Brexit leaves question mark over FCA regulation
Steven Garner
The rapid growth of Fintech has meant necessary EU regulation to control this burgeoning industry, but Brexit has brought calls for less red tape to fuel progress in the UK.
Fintech companies concerned about compliance and regulation have nothing to fear from Britain’s decision to quit the European Union, says an expert.
Steven Garner, a compliance officer at regulatory consultancy Kession Capital, says the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has already adopted more EU regulation than most other member countries.
“Regulators around the world already use the FCA rulebook as a guide,” says Garner. “Brexit might make things easier for Fintech companies because some directives could be amended in the UK.”
He cites the EU Market Abuse Regulation and the Prospectus Directive as two rules he would like to see revised.
Brexit might make things easier for Fintech companies because some directives could be amended in the UK.
The Market Abuse Regulation insists companies inform the FCA if they have delayed the disclosure of inside information and explain why. The Prospectus Directive determines the information companies must disclose when being admitted to trading on a regulated market.

s2orc | band. This can be achieved with peripherally substituted phthalocyanines because the aza-substitution of the four methine bridges in the ring selectively affects the a 2u molecular orbital of the HOMO degenerate pair more than the a 1u orbitals, introducing a significant energy split of over 2 eV. The splitting of the two usually degenerate orbitals breaks the selection rule that leads to the Q band being forbidden and allows borrowing of intensity from the fully allowed B band. Further red shifts of the Q band of phthalocyanines can be achieved with peripheral substituents that reduce the LUMO-HOMO gap by, for example, extensive delocalization using aromatic groups. [19][20][21][22][23][24] We have previously reported the connection between E HOMO-(HOMO−1) (ΔHOMO) and the Q band oscillator strength and the connection between E LUMO-HOMO and the Q band energy. 25 For both parameters, we reported a reasonably linear trend between the experimental data and the computational results.
While synthetic phthalocyanines do provide a strongly absorbing and red-shifted Q band, for example the linked porphyrin arrays of Kim and Osuka 22 and the porphyrin tapes of Tsuda and Osuka, 21 these molecules themselves are often poorly soluble, aggregate easily, and are expensive to make and purify in the bulk required for commercial applications. Nature has provided many guides to the tuning of porphyrins for specific tasks, particularly, the chlorophylls' roles in photosynthesis. 3,[26][27][28] A key feature in the chlorophylls' electronic structure is how the few atoms of specific peripheral substituents of the π ring break the degeneracy of both the LUMO and HOMO pair. 29 These two properties result in the lowering of the LUMO energy from the introduction of a large ΔLUMO and also a concomitant increase in the magnitude of the ΔHOMO. The splitting of both the LUMO pair and HOMO pair results in an intense and red Q band.
In this paper, we describe the analysis of the optical properties of β-substituted zinc porphyrins using magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectroscopy to both identify the presence of an extensively split LUMO pair and support the results of computational analysis of the electronic states. The compu- Fig. 1 The nodes for the HOMOs (4 nodes) and LUMOs (5 nodes) for a metallated porphyrin with an 18 π electron aromatic ring, shown with grey dotted lines.

The blue and green shading shows the electron density of the occupied π MOs while the red and yellow shading shows the electron density map of the unoccupied π* MOs. tational analysis provided the interpretation of the underlying reasons that both the HOMO and LUMO degenerate pairs split in energy as a function of specific substitutions. The results highlight the requirement for nonsymmetric delocalization on the pyrrole rings as a means of splitting the LUMO pair, which leads to a preferred red-shifted Q band. The combination of a red and intense Q band, a panchromatic response, and the transfer of electrons will result in efficient photosensitizers. We explore the effect of | 512 |

realnews | major-league home run would come at Wrigley Field. Thursday night, he had to trade some ivy in for a facade. But he'll take it.
"Yankee Stadium against the Red Sox is pretty good, too," Anna said after the Yankees' 4-1 win over the Red Sox.
Anna hit a solo home run in the fifth inning off Clay Buchholz to give the Yankees a 3-0 lead. It was the utility infielder's first career home run and first hit at Yankee Stadium. When he entered the dugout, Derek Jeter was the first person to greet him.
"That was a cool moment," Anna said. "I think I'll remember that for a long time."
Jeter said he recalled his first handful of games at Yankee Stadium almost two decades ago and how hard he tried to perform well.
"For him to get his first hit, a big home run," Jeter said. "Buchholz is as good as they come. It's just something he'll remember forever."
Anna returned to his locker to find more than 100 messages on his phone. It continued to buzz as he was swarmed with reporters.
"It's gonna take a while to read all these messages," he said. "Some people might get mad if I don't get back to them."

Anna, 27, was acquired from the Padres in the offseason to add infield depth and made the team out of spring training. He started at second base Thursday night in place of Brian Roberts, who was given a day off.
Most expect Anna to be sent to the minors when Brendan Ryan (back) comes off the disabled list. But Ryan doesn't seem close to returning and Anna has been solid in limited duty at second base and shortstop.
"It's an amazing feeling to just be a part of this," Anna said. "It's unbelievable."
The Yankees made sure to get that home run ball back from a fan in the rightfield seats so Anna could have it.
Said Joe Girardi, "It's something I'm sure he'll talk about for a long time."

Four (1.8%) patients were younger than one year of age (one patient was a preterm neonate, one patient an exclusively breast-fed young infant, two patients complementarily fed babies including unpasteurized cheese), 45 patients were between 1-5 years, 87 patients were between 5-12 years, and 76 patients were ≥12 years. None of the patients had a known hematologic disease. One hundred and twenty eight (60.4%) patients were hospitalized for a mean duration of 11±6.7 days. A total of 183 (86.3%) patients had a history of consuming unpasteurized milk and dairy products. At least one parent of 121 patients (57.1%) were working in animal breeding and had intimate contact with sheep and/or cows. Eighty-four (39.6%) patients had positive family history for brucellosis. The symptoms and physical examination findings were shown in Table I. Median duration of fever was 15 days (range 1-365 days). The most commonly involved joint was knee in 21 (65.6%) patients, followed by ankle in seven (21.9%) patients and hip in four (12.5%) patients. Nine (75.0%) patients had cervical, two (16.7%) had inguinal, and one (8.3%) had mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Blood cultures were performed in 161 (75.9%) patients and Brucella spp were isolated in 70 (43.4%) of them. Serum agglutination test titers at presentation were ≥1/160 in 201 patients (94.8%). Ten (4.7%) patients with SAT titers of <1/160 were diagnosed with positive blood culture.
Ninety-two (43.4%) patients had hematological involvement at least in one lineage. The initial complete blood count findings of patients were summarized in Table II. On admission, anemia was detected in 66 (31.7%) patients, leukopenia was detected in 22 (10.6%) patients [14 (6.7%) neutropenia, 14 (6.7%) lymphopenia], and thrombocytopenia was detected in 10 (4.8%) patients. Four patients (1.9%) had pancytopenia. The epidemiological and laboratory findings of patients presenting with pancytopenia were shown in Table III. Aspartate aminotransferase and ALT levels were ≥40 IU/L in 69 (32.5%) and in 55 (25.9%) patients, respectively.
The mean age of patients with and without hematological involvement were 9.6±4.5 years and 9.3±4.8 years, respectively (p=0.6). Hematologic involvement was higher in patients with fever (p<0.001). There was no association between duration of fever and hematologic involvement (p=0.68). In patients who had hepatomegaly and splenomegaly, hematologic involvement was statistically higher (p=0.001 and p=0.005, respectively). Hematological involvement was also higher in those who had elevated AST and ALT levels (p<0.05). The presence of hepatomegaly and splenomegaly, results of blood cultures and transaminase concentrations of patients with and without hematologic involvement were shown in Table IV. Mean platelet volume was 8.1 ± 0.95 fL, and there was no correlation between SAT titer and mean platelet volume (r = -0.02, p = 0.7).

So I've just downloaded tinder, and after getting a couple matches, I've realised I have absolutelty no idea how to start conversations. Trying to talk to a random girl you've never met online, how do you guys do it? In person I'm fine, but online I have no idea how to start anything. Does anyone know of any good tinder guides, or guides for talking on online dating sites or anything of that nature? I'm at an absolute loss.
In this case, if I can do the pattern without having to watch every move I make, I would watch something funny on Netflix or Hulu. Lately my crochet show of choice is Archer. It's dumb enough where I don't need to pay absolute attention to it and the project I'm working on doesn't require absolute attention either.

What is the general color of your urine? I find when I'm dehydrated, or have been drinking excessively in the past days (which causes dehydration) my semen has a stronger odor to it, and can even be chunkier and a darker color than normal. Drink *a-lot* of water, keep yourself well hydrated (when your urine is a light amber to yellow color you're well hydrated). The only other thing I can suggest is to really cut back on your refined sugar intake, high fructose corn syrup being the main one; Powerade and Gatorade have it pretty high up on their ingredient list. Anecdotal evidence at best, but I used to notice a stronger funk every once in awhile, but since doing these two things my semen smells pretty benign, just a bit of "jizz" smell, doesn't even taste like much. Still eating red meat, caffeine, onions, garlic, etc.

realnews | the big picture like the Heat are. The Heat have a goal of a 3-peat and if beating the Pacers during the regular season is part of it then so be it, but if it’s not then let’s regroup and get ready to win in the playoffs.
That’s the veteran mindset. That’s the difference in a team who’s been to the finals three years straight and a team who has never been there. So who runs the eastern conference?
Most would say the Indiana Pacers due to their record but I would say otherwise. We’ll see how the Pacers play the Heat in Miami next week. In Indianapolis, the Heat were composed and relaxed for the most part. They weren’t air balling shots, turning over the ball frequently, and overall buying into the hype. The Heat treated it like a regular game considering it’s a regular season game.
It takes a lot to knock the Heat off their throne. I give the Pacers a little credit because they won but remember; it’s only December. We’ll see how they play come playoff time. It’s going to take more than talk to do all of that and Paul George and the rest of the Pacers crew probably realize that after tonight’s game. What does it take to be the best team in the East and better yet, the entire league?
First you need the players and coaching staff. The Miami Heat are led by veterans who have been to the championship, won and lost championships, and overall have the drive and will to win another title. They also have Erik Spoelstra who has the experience and has a great mentor in Pat Riley. It takes confidence instead of cockiness. Most cocky players and teams fall due to overconfidence or underestimating their opponents.
Follow isportsweb on twitter
The Heat organization is very confident, not cocky, and they show that by the way they carry themselves on and off the court. To be the best team you need a leader and the Heat have the best leader and player in the league: LeBron James. To be the best team you also need a strong bench and the Heat have that. A team can’t solely rely only on their starters. Championship teams don’t make multiple mistakes. Championship teams don’t get too emotional and lose composure during big games. The Heat has what it takes to be the best.
In my opinion the Heat are the best the Eastern Conference has to offer. The only other team that can match up with the Heat pound for pound would be the San Antonio Spurs due to their veteran players and coaching. Other than the Spurs, the only thing standing in the way of the Heat 3-peating would be themselves.
The target is on their back, people want to see them fail, teams want to take them out, but in the end it will be the Heat stopping themselves from their own destiny. With leaders like LeBron, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh I doubt that will happen. With a coach | 512 |

I rec. this book via a GoodReads giveaway & loved it! I've read one other book ("The Whistling Season") by Ivan Doig and loved it as well. At this point, I've decided I have to read all his novels!
How refreshing it was for me to read "The Bartender's Tale"! Ivan Doig is a wonderful story teller. I did not want this book to end. There is nothing predictable about this novel. The characters in this book are so well presented and developed that I felt as if I knew them personally. And as the story expands and more characters are introduced, the story just keeps getting better and better.
This book is humorous, endearing, clever, interesting, colorful and full of witticisms that I remembered from my youth. Thank you Mr. Doig for writing this book and thank you GoodReads for sending it to me!
A really smexy story. Short and to the point of action. Great characters with nice transitions.
Good. Very interesting to learn about Jerusalem and Palestine.
This book was epic! It was such a different story to anything I've ever read before it took my breath away. It's a story that could actually be believable, due to the crazy hold the capital have over the districts just to keep their power. It reminds me of the way some governments in our world control individuals through fear and use of the military. I loved Katniss and her devotion to beautiful Prim and I loved Gale so much, I didn't like Peter to be honest he seemed like a bit of a sook. I'm team Gale for sure. Really loved the book and was so glad she made it into a series
A wonderfully written, character-driven novel, with certainly some minor autobiographical elements woven in. This is a story of changing times, and how to respond to them, with true friendship and love, despite our own flaws, shortcomings, and complicated sense of each other. Johnson skillfully captures a time in history when the quiet acts of courage, and the combined selflessness and selfishness, could bring out the best in each other. She also highlights the moral ambiguities that we live with to make life simpler, and how different a viewpoint can be depending on where you stand, and what brought you to that place. How love can take so many forms, both blinding and illuminating, and calling us to be our broader selves.
Really good writing, and it was very intriguing to see how the crime and the plot was unfolding along with the emotional part and the relationship between the two sisters! And I definitely didn't see the final twist coming!
This was a great book. It was an easy read and it had a good lesson.

They also swapped a diet of Iraqi crude oil for shale oil out of Texas. The shale oil is not a perfect fit for the refinery, which prefers a medium-sour grade, but the owners are willing to run at slightly reduced rates to take advantage of the competitive pricing for U.S. crude oil, according to a person familiar with the facility’s operations.
The same goes for White Rose. It’s not a perfect fit, and the owners are blending it with other grades as part of the ongoing tinkering with the crude slate, the person said.
The White Rose oil fields, first tapped in 2005, are a joint project between Husky Energy, Suncor Energy Inc and the Newfoundland and Labrador provincial government.
Colleen McConnell, the Husky spokeswoman, said the firm has sold more cargoes this year, but declined to say how many.
Gloria Warren-Slade, a refinery spokeswoman, said, “the refinery runs different crudes from time to time, and White Rose happens to be one of them this time.”
Oil fields off the coast of Newfoundland also produce Hibernia and Terra Nova crude as part of joint projects that include Exxon Mobil Corp, Chevron Corp, Murphy Oil Corp and Petro-Canada.
Combined, these oil fields sent an average of 100,000 bpd to the U.S. in 2014, making up the lion’s share of the exports, according to Canadian customs information. In the first quarter of this year, as Come By Chance began accepting White Rose crude, non-U.S. exports have been on the decline, data shows.

U.S. Rep. Roger Williams, R-Austin, lost his bid Tuesday to become chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, the campaign arm of the House GOP.
House Republicans instead elected Rep. Steve Stivers of Ohio to succeed Rep. Greg Walden at the helm of the NRCC. Stivers received 143 votes to 96 for Williams, according to two sources close to House GOP leadership.
Williams had exuded confidence heading into Tuesday, saying he had the votes to win the post. Part of his campaign centered on easing the fundraising burden on lawmakers by scaling back membership dues.
Another Texas Republican, Rep. Bill Flores of Bryan, also suffered a loss in the GOP leadership elections Tuesday. He was defeated by Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia in the race for House GOP vice chairman.
The Texas Tribune thanks its sponsors. Become one.
Flores, first elected in 2010, spent the previous congressional term as head of the Republican Study Committee, the largest voting bloc in Congress.
The two losses are a setback for Texans, who've longed for several years to have a seat at the leadership table. While the state has seven chairmanships in the U.S. House, it was a point of annoyance among many Texas Republicans that the largest GOP state delegation did not hold a leadership slot.

Pile-CC | City Clerk Lesa Hardin took over Adams' clerk position, while the new CAO continued his role as finance director; Starkville Police Department Capt. Frank Nichols was promoted to police chief after aldermen first placed former Chief David Lindley on administrative leave, then accepted his letter of retirement; former City Planner Buddy Sanders became Starkville's second community development director after his former boss, Snowden, resigned last year due to health-related reasons.
Wynn supported Carver's motion to non-renew Spruill and each subsequent city hire.
Public comments at board meetings turned to sharp criticisms during the Spruill ousting and subsequent hiring processes for vacant department head positions. Residents were critical at the board's lack of transparency and how it followed minimum standards for job searches.
Commenters also vocally protested a policy restricting public access to cellphones during board meetings, a rule change introduced by Perkins. His motion, supported by Wynn, was defeated, and the board then codified a less-stringent compromise motioned by Ward 5 Alderman Scott Maynard.
Since July 1, Wynn has engaged in one-on-one confrontations from the board table with members of the public. Sistrunk, a now-constant figure and commenter at board meetings, and Wynn have both participated in back-and-forth rows on numerous occasions.
Mary Lee Beal, a former long-serving alderman and Democratic mayoral candidate, verbally sparred with Wynn in January after blasting the board over its narrow police search and the Ward 2 alderman's perceived lack of knowledge on the city's sidewalk-required district.
Beal left that board meeting before Vaughn lashed out at public criticism, saying negative comments and commenters are "a disgrace in the sight of God." After his speech, Wynn referred to a silent majority of supporters who backed the board's actions and stances.
Quasi-public officials also drew Wynn's fire last year. The alderman used a board meeting to publicly attack Greater Starkville Development Partnership CEO Jennifer Gregory by accusing her of using the Partnership to promote her own personal opinions.
Gregory previously submitted a letter stating the GSDP Executive Committee supported a compromise by Walker that would create a transparent, community-involved ordinance review committee for landscaping, sidewalk and other issues.
Wynn said she was "informed that these were not the official views" of the board by GSDP Executive Board Chairman Richard Hilton and that Gregory should "not use her title in the Partnership to convey her opinion on Partnership letterhead to this board."
When contacted by The Dispatch after the meeting, Hilton said his board was "emphatically in favor of a non-partisan approach to looking at ordinances" and that he supported Gregory's letter and action.
Wynn stuck to her original message after Gregory defended her actions -- Gregory was not in attendance when the criticism began but rushed to City Hall when alerted of the dialogue through social media -- saying the letter was "not the official opinion of the executive council" and refused to apologize.
"If Mr. Hilton will issue me a statement citing that, I will be more than happy to 'woman-up' and apologize to you and the Partnership, but until then my letter than I read tonight | 512 |

Yes, Trump is a mad king. Yes, he is immoral. Yes, he is a pathological liar. Yes, he is corrupt. Yes, people have never seen anything like it.
But what about the propaganda apparatus that props him up and what about his supporters, who believe that propaganda and believe Trump's deceptions? What about them? When Trump is no longer president, hopefully sooner rather than later, who will those people turn to next? What lies will they believe next?

I got acquainted with several people there. We all had some coffee and introduced ourselves. Then we did a reading on Step 1. I cried quite a bit and someone gave me a box of tissues. I listened to others share their struggles with alcohol and it often hit a chord with me. Everyone was so welcoming and warm... and that's something I really appreciate. I plan on going back next chance I get. There is another AA session on Tuesday afternoon; it's pretty far away and I need to do some research on how to get to it since I'm always taking public transportation, but if I can go, I'll go.
Lol almost all up the nose. Closer to the end I started doing IM to get higher, and with the thought that it wouldn't damage me the same way as railing. That wasn't the case unfortunately. It was a shit situation because by the time I knew the damage I was doing it was too late but I couldn't stop still. My urologist at the time was still treating me for regular bladder infections and wouldn't give me anything better than T3. The T3 was horrible on my bladder, caffeine made me piss more and the Tylenol made me piss blood. So I self medicated with K because it's a great painkiller. Then I found oxy and was able to leave k.

Like /u/Petey-G said, AFI's earlier work (pretty much anything before sing the sorrow) sounds pretty similar to Misfits, especially in content. Stza, the lead singer of CV/LoC has another band, Star Fucking Hipsters that's really good. What parts of the bands do you like? For CV/LoC do you like the hardcore/ska combination? Then check out Operation Ivy and the Mighty Might Bosstones. Do you like the politics of them? Check out bands like Crass, Subhumans, and for a newer sound groups like Anti-Flag and Propagandhi. For Misfits, if you like the gory content (often referred to as "Horrorcore"), I think Alkaline Trio is a newer (2000s) band like that. Do you like the "wall of sound" that some of their songs have? Check out Husker Du, Flipper, and Big Black. If you like the "fun-ness" of them, look into NoFX, Suburban Legends, Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies, and the Dead Kennedys For some general 80s hardcore suggestions, Black Flag is pretty much the gold standard, especially the album "Damaged". Some other bands I really like are Gorilla Biscuits and their album "Start Today", Adolescents with their self-titled album are fantastic, and Agent Orange with the album "Living in Darkness" and any Dead Kennedys will be great. For some newer (not 80s hardcore) bands, I'd recommend Propagandhi. Their earlier stuff is very skate-punk sounding, and they move into a much heavier sound to the point where I think most people wouldn't have a problem putting them in with metal. Millencolin is a solid skate band out of Sweden that's very good. I also love Against Me! Their sound changes a lot over their discography and the lead singer (then Tom Gabel, now Laura Jane Grace) has a few solo albums out that are really cool since you can see how much she's changed over the years. Hope this helps! Looking at it now it's a lot, but better to give too much than too little
Mine was supposed to ship today to according to the VZW salesguy when he checked the comp. My email still said my order is still processing. I guess the longer the wait, the better as maybe it got pulled away for a newer batch?? The email says it will be delivered by 11/1 so who knws. If it matters, i placed my store at a Verizon store on 10/5, the day after the announcement.
Hmm... What is your obsession with accent dear 'anal_explorer'? Surely ''articulate rational and cultured communication'' would be beneficial and accessable to everyone? Alas, I'm so sorry if my comments also momentarily 'mesmerised' you 'friendlydespot' , it would explain your confusion and your sweeping generalisations... I consciously ignored 'accent', as to a degree everyone is influenced by, and reflects the 'norms' of the community in which they live, or to put it simply, everyone has an accent, accents are... universal!

This is my code right now. I need to insert a row in 3 brackets tables with the the value of ID (is AUTO_INCREMENT) from leagues tables.
normally i do like this, but now I dont know what I must put to replace $id in values.
safe_query("INSERT INTO `".PREFIX."brackets4` (`league`) VALUES ('$id')");
safe_query("INSERT INTO `".PREFIX."brackets8` (`league`) VALUES ('$id')");
safe_query("INSERT INTO `".PREFIX."brackets16` (`league`) VALUES ('$id')");
What should I do?
A:
Well, I found the answer :D
$quera = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM `".PREFIX."leagues` ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1");
while($res = mysql_fetch_array($quera)) {
$ida = $res['id'];
safe_query("INSERT INTO `".PREFIX."brackets4` (`league`) VALUES ('$ida')");
safe_query("INSERT INTO `".PREFIX."brackets8` (`league`) VALUES ('$ida')");
safe_query("INSERT INTO `".PREFIX."brackets16` (`league`) VALUES ('$ida')");
}
Q:
Scrapy outputs [ into my .json file
A genuine Scrapy and Python noob here so please be patient with any silly mistakes. I'm trying to write a spider to recursively crawl a news site and return the headline, date, and first paragraph of the Article. I managed to crawl a single page for one item but the moment I try and expand beyond that it all goes wrong.
my Spider:
import scrapy
from scrapy.contrib.spiders import CrawlSpider, Rule
from scrapy.selector import Selector
from scrapy.contrib.linkextractors.sgml import SgmlLinkExtractor
from basic.items import BasicItem
class BasicSpiderSpider(CrawlSpider):
name = "basic_spider"
allowed_domains = ["news24.com/"]
start_urls = (
'http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/56-children-hospitalised-for-food-poisoning-20150328',
)
rules = (Rule (SgmlLinkExtractor(allow=("", ))
, callback="parse_items", follow= True),
)
def parse_items(self, response):
hxs = Selector(response)
titles = hxs.xpath('//*[@id="aspnetForm"]')
items = []
item = BasicItem()
item['Headline'] = titles.xpath('//*[@id="article_special"]//h1/text()').extract()
item["Article"] = titles.xpath('//*[@id="article-body"]/p[1]/text()').extract()
item["Date"] = titles.xpath('//*[@id="spnDate"]/text()').extract()
items.append(item)
return items
I am still getting the same problem, though have noticed that there is a "[" for every time I try and run the spider, to try and figure out what the issue is I have run the following command:
c:\Scrapy Spiders\basic>scrapy parse --spider=basic_spider -c parse_items -d 2 -v http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/56-children-hospitalised-for-food-poisoning-20150328
which gives me the following output:

s2orc | methodology and the performance achieved shall be presented to auditors from the certifying organisation. Any positive assessment by them, indicated in the audit report as good practice, will contribute to the company's image through the ISO 14001 certificate issued. By holding this certificate, the organisation guarantees to all stakeholders that:
the EMS operates in compliance with all ISO 14001 and regulatory requirements, Everyone working in the company is trained and competent to perform their assigned tasks flawlessly; the conditions in which work is carried out meet European environmental requirements; the selection of suppliers, subcontractors and partners is based on the required criteria each part of the activities is strategically specified and planned; every aspect aims to reduce the environmental impact; accurately identifies and manages risk and opportunities associated with environmental aspects.
Conclusion
The self-assessment, through an environmental management system maturity model, enabled Kaolin EAD to establish its current level of maturity, review and complement its strengths and weaknesses and associated risks and opportunities for improvement.
The application of the Self-Assessment Methodology of Kaolin EAD is a reviewing tool of the sustainable success level, the company has reached.
The introduction and implementation of the selfassessment methodology is a management decision aimed at protecting the environment, which improves the company's image and supports the sustainable development and better financial results.
Company's reputation is an intangible asset and а subject to annual evaluation. Such assets can yield a profit above the market return rates, as the business is worth much more than net tangible assets. The capitalised value of this excess return is economic reputation.
The methodology is used as a self-assessment tool of the company's sustainable success. The results of the Methodology increase the confidence of all stakeholders and the organisation: assesses annually the current level of maturity and proposes actions dedicate to improve it with focus to sustainable development of its operations; it operates in an environmentally friendly manner and implements an effective environmental management system, not only meeting all the requirements of the BDS EN ISO 14001 standard and regulatory requirements, but also striving for continuous improvement of the system.
