Miller Unleashes Anti-Gay Bigoted Attack To Kill Hate Crimes Bill
In an ugly display of bigotry against Indiana's gay, lesbian and transgender citizens, Advance America's Eric Miller unleashed a hateful and false attack on a hate crimes bill approved by a 9-1 vote of the House Courts and Criminal Code Committee this week. Spurned by all but one GOP member of the committee, Miller has turned to his faithful to put the heat on conservative Democrats and Republicans in the House in a last-ditch effort to kill HB 1459. Miller asks his faithful, "Should homosexuals and cross-dressers get special protection?" In an e-mail warning of the "dangerous precedent" HB 1459 would establish, Miller writes:
This bill establishes a very dangerous precedent because it would create two classes of victims and punish someone more because of their thoughts. Here are just a few of the reasons why this bill should not pass:
• This bill introduces the concept that someone’s actions are more illegal based upon their thoughts. In Indiana and America, we punish actions not thoughts.
Laying aside the bigoted tone of Miller's e-mail--"homosexuals and cross-dressers"--allow me to address the patently false information Miller disseminates about HB 1459. Let's keep in mind that Indiana is one of only five states in the nation which has failed to enact a law which Miller calls a "dangerous precedent." My old boss and the former Illinois House Republican Leader, Lee Daniels, voted for Illinois' hate crime law back in 1990--17 years ago--that's how far we're behind Illinois.
Just as Miller argued when the Indianapolis City-County Council considered passage of a Human Rights Ordinance, Miller declares that "special protections" are being afforded to "homosexuals and cross-dressers." Miller makes no mention of the fact that these so-called "special protections" are based not only on a crime victim's "sexual orientation and gender identity" but also skin color, race, religion, national origin, creed, disability and sex. Miller knows better than to mention these other groups because he knows it's no longer fashionable to bash people on these bases. HB 1459, in fact, provides no special treatment to gay victims or any of the other covered victims. It applies equally to all groups. For example, a gay person who committed a crime against a straight person because of the person's sexual orientation would be equally subject to enhanced sentencing under HB 1459 as a straight person who committed a crime against a gay person because of their sexual orientation.
Miller bemoans the fact that HB 1459 sets different standards based upon the victim of the crime. Hello, where has he been. Indiana's criminal law is full of such distinctions. Miller suggests a child victim or an elderly victim would be treated differently than a gay victim. Indiana law already provides a number of circumstances under which a criminal may be given a tougher sentence based on the identity of the victim, including children, the elderly, mentally handicapped and law enforcement officers, among others. Lest we forget the passage of a new law just last year which created a new felony disorderly conduct offense for any person who protests within 500 feet of a funeral. That law targeted an extremist religious group which picketed the funerals of fallen soldiers from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, arguing that the soldiers deserved to die because America embraced homosexuality. Miller whole-heartedly supported that law!
Just like Miller argued during the HRO debate that employers should be able to discriminate against gays and lesbians in employment as an expression of their freedom of religion and free speech rights, he similarly argues that a hate crime law infringes on a criminal's free speech rights. The degree of a crime for purposes of punishment is based upon a person's state of mind with respect to crimes other than those for minor infractions. The criminal law has always allowed a person's spoken words and actions to be used to infer their degree of culpability. Come on Eric, there's nothing in this bill which prohibits a pastor from standing in the pulpit and blaming gays and lesbians for all the ills in today's society, even if he is committing the sin of bearing false witness against his neighbor.
And isn't it ironic that Miller would be raising free speech rights at the same time he's pushing SJR-7, which will amend Indiana's Bill of Rights to institutionalize discrimination against Indiana's gay and lesbian citizens, as well as other unmarried couples--the very first time in the history of Indiana that our Bill of Rights has been amended to take away rights, not confer them.
It is incumbent upon all liberty-loving folks to denounce Miller's latest rantings, which are purposefully aimed at fomenting even more hate and bigotry against Indiana's gay citizens than he already has with the push for SJR-7. Miller has gone way too far, and it's high time folks called him out for the true bigot he is.
UPDATE: The American Family Association's Micah Clark is double-teaming Miller's effort to kill HB 1459. He's upset Marion Co. Prosecutor Carl Brizzi is pushing the legisation. Notice like Miller Clark focuses on the "homosexuals and cross-dressers." Here's the crap Clark is spewing:
Forget Equal Justice Under Law - Hello Special Protections
The Indiana House of Representatives will soon be debating a misguided bill that passed out of the Committee on Courts and Criminal Code. The bill, HB 1459, is a “hate crimes” bill that seeks to add additional punishment based upon a criminal’s motive or thoughts, if the victim is a cross-dresser or a homosexual. In other words, a person who beats up a little old lady may get two years in jail. A person committing the exact same offense against a guy in a dress might get five years because he, according to HB 1459, committed a worse crime.
I was particularly disappointed to hear reports that Indianapolis Prosecutor Carl Brizzi made a special trip to the State House to testify in favor of this legislation. Hate crimes not only places a police officer in the awkward position of judging a criminal’s thoughts, it sets up an unequal sense of justice. AFA supports the enforcement of swift and strong sentencing for crime, but in a fair and equal manner. Recent use of such laws in other countries against ministers or people who have merely expressed a moral opposition to homosexuality should be a warning sign that a thought-based penalty is a step in a very bad direction.

Yep, the Klan is back with a vengence but now they wear navy blue suits and red ties instead of a white hood and robe. These people are evil. These bigots lie through their teeth and manipulate their followers with fear. It is time for every person in the GLBT community to stand up and fight this NOW! Tomorrow may be to late.
Anonymous said...
Wow! I used to think you were stretching things a bit to compare these folks to the KKK, Gary, but this is very revealing. As you point out, the hate crimes bill covers a broad group of folks who've been singled out by hate groups in the past. If Clark and Miller truly opposed it on principle, why do both of them use the examples of "homosexuals" and "cross-dressers" to make their points?
GaryJ said...
Can't people just accept others for WHO they are, and leave their sexual orientation out of it?
I disagree with almost everything Wilson has to say, not because he is gay, but because he wrong most of the time! Sexual preference is a personal matter, like smoking, drinking, or using illegal drugs. Feel free to hate the lifestyle, but not the person.
Right Wilson?
lori said...
garyj, Wilson has not even commented yet so why are you hyjacking this thread to pick a fight? Do you actually have a comment about this thread?
Advance Indiana said...
garyj, I believe you are an Indianapolis police officer. When you say things like that, it plays into people's worst stereotypes of law enforcement officers and their attitudes towards gay people. A number of your colleagues are gay whether you know it or not. And one of them may save your life some day. A person's sexual orientation is not chosen, and until you grasp that, you're going to approach people different from you with the wrong attitude.

Sorry AI, I'm not a cop. I also said that sexual preference is a personal matter, not choice. I do know a few police officers, and I know 4 gays ones, 1 is openly gay!
Lori, I wasn't picking a fight with Wilson. I'm think he would agree that people should mind their own business and look at the person, not what the person is. (Black, Asian, Gay, or disabled.)

I think Erica Miller is gay..why else would he be so worried about the "homosexuals"

\section{Open Extension of Double Pointed Countable Complement Topology is T4 Space}
Tags: Double Pointed Topology, Open Extension Topology, Double Pointed Topologies, Countable Complement Topology, T4 Spaces
\begin{theorem}
Let $T = \struct {S, \tau_S}$ be a countable complement topology on an uncountable set $S$.
Let $D = \struct {\set {0, 1}, \tau_D}$ be the indiscrete topology on two points.
Let $T \times D$ be the double pointed topology on $T$.
Let $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ be the open extension topology on $S \times \set {0, 1} \cup \set p$ where $p \notin S \times \set {0, 1}$.
Then $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is a $T_4$ space, and no other separation axioms are fulfilled.
That is, $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is not a $T_0$ space, $T_1$ space, $T_2$ space, $T_3$ space or $T_5$ space.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
From Open Extension Topology is T4 we have that $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is a $T_4$ space.
From Double Pointed Countable Complement Topology fulfils no Separation Axioms, we have that $T \times D$ is not a $T_0$ space or a $T_5$ space.
From Condition for Open Extension Space to be $T_0$ Space, it follows that $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is not a $T_0$ space.
From Condition for Open Extension Space to be $T_5$ Space, it follows that $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is not a $T_5$ space.
From Open Extension Topology is not $T_1$, we have that $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is not a $T_1$ space.
From Open Extension Topology is not $T_3$ we have that $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is not a $T_3$ space.
Finally, from $T_2$ Space is $T_1$ Space, as $\paren {T \times D}^*_{\bar p}$ is not a $T_1$ space it is not a $T_2$ space.
{{qed}}

Fully Integrated pic
Should Your Contract be Fully Integrated?
When you have a written contract and a dispute arises, often one party will claim that the contract meaning is different than what it says. In an effort to prove their claim, the party typically attempts to submit external evidence to alter or add to the agreement. However, Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), which is applicable to all contracts for the sale of goods, prevents the use of external evidence where the parties executed a fully integrated contract.
A fully integrated contract is one that provides that it is the “final written expression” of the parties’ agreement and no prior discussion or agreement can be invoked to add or change the agreement A fully integrated contract will contain a clause entitled “Entire Agreement” or “Integration” and usually appears at the end of the document.
The Seventh Circuit recently tackled this issue in the case of Druckzentrum Harry Jung GmbH & Co. KG v. Motorola Mobility, LLC, 774 F.3d 410 (December 18, 2014). The Druckzentrum contract contained a provision that stated the contract was the full understanding of the parties and it superseded everything else. However, Druckzentrum wanted to present extrinsic (outside) evidence as proof that the parties intended there would be exclusivity, even though the contract contained no such mention of exclusivity.
In applying § 2-202 of the UCC, the Seventh Circuit determined that the use of extrinsic evidence to explain or enhance the contract was prohibited. Druckzentrum argued that its extrinsic evidence fell within the exception in § 2-202(b), which permits evidence of consistent additional terms. The Court ruled that the exception does not apply if the contract is states that it is wholly integrated.
Druckzentrum made an additional attempt to fit within the § 2-202(b) exception by arguing that the contract was not fully integrated since it included other documents by reference. However, the Seventh Circuit held that because the contract specifically incorporated certain documents, any documents not specifically incorporated where necessarily excluded. As a result, the court ruled against Druckzentrum on summary judgment.
Most business contracts contain entire agreement clauses. When negotiating and signing your contract, it’s important to ensure that all deal points discussed be included into the final contract and that the language accurately reflects the deal. Otherwise, you will have a difficult time introducing evidence of other terms or conflicting terms if a dispute arises.

The Board's Role In Leveraging The Gig Economy
AUG 2, 2017
How Evolving Work Habits Need To Be Integral To Your Strategy
(Originally appeared in the August 2, 2017 'Across the Board' Publication Reaching 22,000+ Savvy Business Leaders In Over 65 Countries - sign up here)
An underlying component of the most effective and successful business strategies typically include a dedicated focus in the Human Capital space - attracting, developing and retaining the absolute best talent. If yours doesn't, it should. ...But the historical working order and landscape of the staffing world is going through a major paradigm shift that is not only affecting how companies make initial contact with great talent, but also how the best talent is increasingly marketing themselves. And the HR world is taking notice. Welcome to the Gig Economy.
Gig Economy: A labor market characterized by the prevalence of short-term contracts or freelance work as opposed to permanent jobs (Fig. 1)
So why has the Gig Economy had so much traction in recent years? For skillset providers ('gig-workers'), it supports what many believe is an alternative to 'cubicle life' and the '9 to 5 grind' - something that arguably started with the millennial generation and was quickly adopted by others with the proliferation of easy-access gig websites for posters and searchers alike. For consumers (companies), it offers up much-needed flexibility and the opportunity to potentially find someone extremely skilled in a specific knowledge area. As these gig websites have matured (along with further acceptance of this hiring model), so have the levels of skillsets and experience of their members. In my recent experience in leveraging gig workers for a project (non-Board related), I experienced the following:
• Unlike hiring a full-time employee with the requirement of assessing many skillsets for multiple long-term company duties (what could be considered a jack of all trades, but master of nothing), I could laser focus my efforts on someone with specific expertise and experience. I recognized their passion and deep knowledge in their area of expertise immediately.
• I realized that I did not have to prioritize the gig worker's focus or time among other competing role priorities as I would have had to do in a full-time position - a task that most companies struggle with and have mediocre results.
• Forecasting and budgeting for the project became a breeze, especially in the area of lump-sum (not hourly) engagements where I could apply this engagement model.
Knowing how much of a company's success is dependent on engaging (and hiring) the right people,... is the duty of a CEO, along with strategic Board guidance, to ensure that the proper resourcing strategies are being explored, researched and implemented. The Gig Economy model should not be ignored.
"Boards need to understand their governance role and responsibility related to human capital deployment – an area traditionally in the Board’s 'blind spot,'" mentioned Dr. Solange Charas, CEO of Charas Consulting and Adjunct Professor at NYU. "The Board, in conjunction with the CEO, needs to understand the current level of efficacy of human capital assets deployment in the organization before determining how (and when) tapping into the gig economy could be beneficial. Some questions the Board should ask include: How efficient is the current human capital in creating economic value creation? What has been the average productivity of employees and how has this changed over time? What has been the average profitability per employee (EBITDA performance) and how has this changed over time? If these indicators have decreased in the past several measurement periods, then it’s time to consider how to align a contingent (gig economy) workforce to business strategy across the company or in selected areas of the company. By creating benchmark metrics, management can monitor human capital efficacy and determine how employing gig economy workers could contribute to economic value creation for shareholders/stakeholders. Transforming HR data into financial metrics is the best way to measure and track how effective your employees were in the past, are today and can be in the future. These are easy ratios to calculate and are critical for Boards and C-Suite executives in governance and informed decision-making."
If your current company resourcing strategy is simply to search and place ads on traditional job boards, leverage existing relationships or hire a placement agency - all under the umbrella of a 9 to 5 full-time position offer - you are likely running the risk of not attracting (or even reaching) the most capable or skilled talent.
"The go-to solution is often the 'gig economy,'" states Elizabeth Eiss, the CEO of ResultsResourcing. "Businesses tap into the gig economy when they hire temporary workers through staffing firms, or independent contractors by referral. Usually, this is a stopgap measure intended to fill urgent or temporary needs rather than a deliberate and enduring strategy. What if, however, it could be used to solve workforce issues on an entirely different level? Enter, the next evolution of the gig economy — the 'human cloud.' Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) defines the human cloud as an 'emerging set of online/digital platforms that enable managers to complete (typically contingent) work.' This cloud is full of freelancers, consultants, contractors and experts who seek new employment models for various reasons. The emerging difference is that the human cloud combines gig economy efficiencies with the opportunity for rewarding, long-term work engagements."
The Relationship Between the Gig Economy and the Human Cloud (Fig. 2)
Granted, not all hiring scenarios will warrant gig-workers, especially when looking to certain ongoing operations portions of your business, but this is where the emerging Human Cloud concept may take over. Either way, many opportunities exist for making significant progress on your strategic plan with the experts you require. Why not do it in a disciplined and passionate way?
What will you consider when creating your Board strategy?

"Now I got tattoos on my body

Giving this thing a proper listen, sounds good so far.

Maybe they used a sample of one of Nirvana's tracks.
10. grapplethis Well-Known Member
because they likely sampled something from a nirvana song.
in fact i just listened to it, and he jacks the melody from the chorus to "smells like teen spirit" and uses like 90% of the words from it with minor tweaks. that's why.
11. severedhand Well-Known Member
The Nirvana bit is @2:00.
12. BUDO-MMA-NYC Well-Known Member
They call that an interpolation when they take a melody and switch some words a bit.
Given that it's only a bridge, it will be a very minor songwriting percentage.
13. BUDO-MMA-NYC Well-Known Member
I'm really feeling this entire record for the most part.
I'm also pleasantly surprised at how "uncommercial" it is. If Jay wasn't as huge as he is and didn't have all those huge artists featured, I highly doubt it would get all that much airplay.
It's very much like a "golden era" hip-hop record. There's no "Big Pimpin'" type of commercial, poppy records on it.
As expected, Jay is talking some pretty deep sh!t on here!
14. osubuckeye4 Well-Known Member
Ah nevermind, just found an article that says that Courtney Love signed off on it (and got paid accordingly)
Courtney Love has gone from Hole to Hova. The singer told Huffington Post she gave Jay-Z approval to quote lyrics from Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" on his upcoming album, Magna Carta Holy Grail. She explained that while the rapper's camp used the lyrics first and asked for permission later, "which is kind of nervy, the business side is taken care of so it's fine." She also said this: "Jay-Z's huge and we're friends. I mean we're not besties or anything..."
15. osubuckeye4 Well-Known Member
"Heaven", "Oceans" and "Jay-Z Blue" are interesting songs.
Everything else is a steaming pile of crap that basically just talks about how great Jay-Z is (comparing himself to famous artists/athletes/civil rights leaders), or is a recital of all the expensive s--- that Jay-Z now owns so he reminds us that he has it.
16. severedhand Well-Known Member
Yeah I hate it when rappers talk about all the ridiculous s--- they own. Makes me feel a little better about downloading their s--- for free.
I like the new album, it's 10 times better than the new Kanye. Those are the only 2 rap albums I've listened to this year so I can't call it the best rap album of the year (that's what I keep hearing that about it).

When "Ice Ice Baby", it was only credited to Vanilla Ice and DJ Earthquake.
But obviously Queen + David Bowie's "Under Pressure" was heavily sampled.
Vanilla tried to BS his way out of it and after going to court, instead of credit to 2 composers, it became credit to 7 composers (Vanilla Ice, Earthquake, Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, John Deacon and David Bowie).
So instead of 50%, Vanilla was down to 14.3%, minus court costs.
If they were smart, they would have approached Queen + David Bowie beforehand (or at least when the song became a hit) and offered some sort of arrangement (instead of categorically denying that the songs were similar). If they played their cards right, I think only John Deacon would have gotten credit (since he created the bass line).
Anyway, what's this deal with the length of the sample having to do with the amount of money owed?
18. severedhand Well-Known Member
I'm surprised Courtney was so easy going giving them permission to use that. She was always a complete b---- when Dave & Krist wanted to put out unreleased Nirvana material. She must've got a good chunk of crack on the side for this deal.

COXE, District Judge.
These cases grow out of the foundering of the coal barges Northern 17 and Northern 30 in a storm off the New Jersey coast in March, 1928. Libels have been filed by the owners of the coal on the two barges for cargo loss against the barge owner. The owner of the tugs T. J. Hooper and Montrose has also instituted limitation proceedings, in which it seeks to be relieved from liability, and, at the same time, denies fault. In these limitation proceedings, the barge owner has answered, asserting negligent towage by the tugs, and claiming for the value of the barges. The cargo owners have also answered, alleging negligent towage, and contesting the right to limit. The cases have all been tried together as one action.
On March 7, 1928, the tug T. J. Hooper, with barges Carroll, A. H. Olwine, and Northern 30, and the tug Montrose, with barges Eastern, Joseph J. Hock, and Northern 17, left Hampton Roads, bound for New York and New England ports. The barges of the respective tugs were arranged in the order named, and all were heavily laden with coal. The T. J. Hooper and tow proceeded by the inside course, and the Montrose by the outside course, it being optional with each tug which course it would follow.
There were no storm warnings at Hampton Roads, or at any of the stations along the coast, until after both tows had proceeded some distance beyond Delaware breakwater; the only order for such warnings issued by the United States Weather Bureau being at Delaware breakwater at 9:30 a. m., March 9th. The two tows encountered good weather, and experienced no difficulties, until the Montrose, which was on the outside course, ran into a strong wind and a heavy sea at 10:20 a. m. on March 9th, and the Hooper, which was on the inside course, encountered similar conditions at 12 o'clock noon on the same day. The tows were then in the vicinity of Atlantic City, or about 50 miles north of Delaware breakwater.
Up to this point the tows had been making good progress, but, at the respective times stated, the tugs hauled head to the sea, and continued only with sufficient headway to keep the barges in line. At 4:45 p. m. on March 9th, the A. H. Olwine, which was the second barge in the Hooper tow, blew distress signals. The tug thereupon directed the tow to anchor, which was done on a single anchor without difficulty. The tug then proceeded back to the tow, and the Olwine reported that its steering gear was disabled. Otherwise, the Olwine and the Carroll were in no trouble. The Northern 30, however, reported that it was leaking, but that the "pumps could hold leak." At 8:25 p. m. on the same day, the weather having somewhat moderated, the Northern 30 reported that the leak was "gaining on pumps," and requested that the crew be taken off if distress signals were again displayed. At 6:50 a. m. on the following day, March 10th, the Northern 30 again blew distress signals and reported 10 feet of water in the hold, the tubes of the boiler gone, and the pumps out of commission. The crew, upon request, were thereupon taken off, and at 1:15 p. m. on March 10th, the Northern 30 sank.
The Montrose continued on her course, hauling head to the sea, until 4:30 p. m. on March 9th, at which time the Northern 17, the last barge in the tow, hoisted a distress signal, and the tug signaled the head barge to anchor and hold the tow. The tow thereupon anchored on a single anchor without difficulty, and, while the leading barge was holding the tow, the Northern 17 went to a separate anchorage. When the tug approached the Northern 17, the barge reported four feet of water forward and five feet aft, the smokestack to the boiler washed away, and the fires in the furnace out. At the request of the master, the crew were then taken off; and at about 2:30 a. m. on March 10th, or ten hours after the first distress signals, the Northern 17 sank.
It is the contention of the cargo owners (1) that the Northern 17 and the Northern 30 were unseaworthy when they left Hampton Roads; (2) that the two tugs, T. J. Hooper and Montrose, were negligent in not anticipating the storm which broke on March 9th, and in not taking refuge at Delaware breakwater; and (3) that the two tugs were unseaworthy in not having effective radio sets, capable of receiving the forecasts of unfavorable weather broadcast along the coast *109 on March 8th. The owner of the tugs insists, on the other hand, that the weather conditions and glass readings were not unfavorable until the tows had proceeded far beyond Delaware breakwater; and that, when the storm broke suddenly on March 9th, it would have accomplished nothing, and have been extremely hazardous, to have turned back to Delaware breakwater. It is denied, therefore, that the tugs were in any way at fault; and it is insisted that the loss of the barges was due to their own unseaworthy condition. The owner of the tugs insists, also, that neither tug was under a duty, statutory or otherwise, to carry a radio receiving set, and it is denied that weather reports of any kind were received by the tugs on March 8th. The owner of the two barges disputes that the barges were unseaworthy, and contends that the loss of the barges and their cargoes was due to the fault of the tugs.
The testimony with respect to the condition of the Northern 17 and Northern 30 came principally from the barge masters, and is not in serious dispute. The Northern 17 was loaded February 29, 1928, at Newport News, with 1,745 tons 300 pounds of soft coal, which, on the order of the transhipper, was sprinkled with 5,125 gallons of water while being loaded, causing it to become soggy and heavy, and increasing its weight by at least 20 tons.
After the barge had been loaded, Captain Fowler, the master, saw that it was overloaded, and protested to the representative of the owner, but no notice was taken of the protest. There is evidence, also, that captain Fowler, after being taken on board the tug, stated that the barge was "loaded too deep," and was lower in the water than it had ever been. The barge was ten years old, and not capable of carrying such a load as was placed on it at Newport News. The weight of the cargo was at least 1,765 tons, which was substantially in excess of the largest cargo carried during the ten trips next preceding. I have little difficulty, therefore, in finding that the Northern 17 was overloaded and unseaworthy. The Benjamin Noble (C. C. A.) 244 F. 95, 97; The G. B. Boren (D. C.) 132 F. 887. I think, also, that the absence of the deck plate over the ventilator hole, and the faulty construction of the forward bulkhead, were serious defects which contributed to the foundering. In the face of such a showing, the barge can hardly be said to have been "reasonably fit to carry the cargo which she [had] has undertaken to transport." The Southwark, 191 U. S. 1, 9, 24 S. Ct. 1, 3, 48 L. Ed. 65.
With respect to the Northern 30, it was shown that she was loaded at Newport News with 1,854 tons of coal, after which she lay in the stream until later taken in tow. Her own master, Captain Thomas, admitted that during the time she was in the stream she leaked between a foot and a foot and a half in 24 hours. And when taken on board the tug, Captain Thomas stated that the barge "was leaking when she left Hampton Roads and always has leaked." There was also testimony of Captain King, master of the Olwine, which was the barge directly ahead, that during the daytime the Northern 30 was "constantly pumping from Cape Henry on up." On this testimony, I am clear that the Northern 30 was unseaworthy, especially as one of the witnesses for the barge owner, who qualified as an expert, admitted that a barge which leaked more than 5 inches in 24 hours was not fit to go to sea.
But it is urged that the testimony appearing in the record with respect to the statements made by the masters of the two barges was incompetent as hearsay, and should be disregarded. This clearly is not the rule in admiralty, where declarations of a master are admissible, even though not part of the res gestæ. The Potomac, 8 Wall. 590, 19 L. Ed. 511; The Enterprise, Fed. Cas. 4497; The W. Talbot Dodge (D. C.) 15 F.(2d) 459, 1927 A. M. C. 94.
The question then arises whether the towage was negligently performed. The tugs were not insurers, but were required to use reasonable care and skill in the service they had undertaken. They were bound to respect barometer readings and weather indications; and for failure to do so are liable for resulting damage. The Hercules (C. C. A.) 73 F. 255; Maryland Transp. Co. v. Dempsey (C. C. A.) 279 F. 94; The Victoria (D. C.) 79 F. 122.
Were then the tugs negligent? Unquestionably, the weather conditions were favorable for both tows at least until after sundown on March 8th. The only disquieting sign later in that evening was the ring around the moon. I do not think though that this, standing by itself, was any indication of impending storm. Nor was there anything unfavorable in the barometer readings on March 7th or 8th. These readings up to midnight on the 8th showed only normal fluctuations, ranging from 30.44 to 30.12, with no sudden movements in either direction.
*110 The Hooper tow passed the breakwater about midnight on the 8th, and at 12:45 a. m. on the 9th was at McCries buoy, which was opposite Cape May. The glass reading at that point was 30.30, the wind moderate, south southeast, the sky overcast, and the sea smooth. The barometer from then on dropped gradually, but almost steadily, until 12 o'clock noon of the 9th, when it registered 29.88. The wind in the meantime had shifted to southeast and east-southeast, and when the tug hauled head to the sea at 12 o'clock noon, it was raining hard, the wind was east-southeast and blowing a gale, and the sea was rough.
It is insisted that because the wind backed into the southeast, and the weather became overcast, after passing McCries buoy, the tug should have anticipated an easterly gale and returned to the breakwater, particularly as Delaware breakwater was the only port of refuge available between the Capes and New York. Captain Savage testified, however, that he thought the wind would work around into the northwest; and I cannot say his judgment in that respect was unwarranted. Certainly there was nothing in the recession of the barometer until after 11:50 a. m. on the 9th to cause anxiety; and, when the storm broke at 12 o'clock noon on that day, it was too late to turn back. To have done so would have subjected the barges to much more severe punishment from the storm than they actually received.
The Montrose tow reached Five Fathom Lightship at 12:30 a. m. on the 9th. This was opposite McCries buoy, and a short distance beyond the breakwater. The barometer was then 30.32, the wind southeast moderate, the weather cloudy, and the sea smooth. At 2:54 a. m. the wind had shifted to south-southeast, and the glass stood at 30.25. From then on, there was little change in the conditions until 7:35 a. m., when the barometer fell to 30.04, and the wind became southeast and increasing in strength. At 10:20 a. m. the tug hauled head to the sea at Brigantine Gas buoy, and the sea was then making strong, with the wind east-southeast. Afterwards, there was a rapid drop in the barometer, and the storm reached its height between 1 and 3 p. m.
Up to the time the Montrose hauled head to the sea, at 10:20 a. m. on the 9th, I do not think there was anything in the weather conditions which required a return to the breakwater. And at 10:20 a. m. on the 9th, the tow was more than nine hours sailing, or at least forty miles north of North East End light vessel. To have turned at that point would only have made matters worse, and have subjected the barges to unnecessary hazard. The E. Luckenback (D. C.) 109 F. 487, affirmed The E. Luckenbach (C. C. A.) 113 F. 1017; The Mohegan (C. C. A.) 28 F.(2d) 795; The A. L. Walker (D. C.) 45 F.(2d) 621.
It is insisted, however, that the strongest argument against the tugs is to be found in the action of the other tugs, which put out from the Capes with the Hooper and Montrose tows, and went into Delaware breakwater on the evening of March 8th; or, as stated by Judge Soper in the A. L. Walker, supra, at page 624 of 45 F.(2d): "It is not often that a tribunal in a case of negligence finds the `ordinarily prudent man' in the flesh and close at hand."
The only other tugs with three loaded barges, besides the Hooper and Montrose, leaving the Virginia Capes, bound north on the afternoon of March 7th, were the Waltham, A. L. Walker, Menominee, and Mars; and all four of these tugs put into Delaware breakwater on the afternoon or evening of March 8th. The masters of the Mars, Waltham, and Menominee all testified at the trial and told why they went into the breakwater. The master of the A. L. Walker was not, however, called, and his motive for going in must therefore be left to conjecture. Captain Miller of the Mars testified that his vessel was equipped with a radio set, and that about noon on March 8th, he received a radio weather report that the wind "was going easterly and increase in force"; and he went into the breakwater on the strength of this report, and also because of general weather conditions, which looked to him like a "breeder." Captain Curtis of the Waltham testified that he received three weather reports on March 8th, at 10:05 a. m., noon, and at 3:45 p. m., and that his decision to go into the breakwater was due mainly to those reports. He admitted, however, that he saw two other tugs preceding him in, and that this had considerable influence on his decision. Captain Powell of the Menominee likewise received the weather report broadcast from the Naval Station at Arlington at 10:05 a. m. on March 8th, that the wind "was going to be diminishingly northeast and was coming east and southeast increasing on Friday." He also testified that he received a similar radio report at 3:45 p. m. on the same day. And it was because of these reports, coupled with the fact that he saw three other tugs *111 making for the breakwater, that he was led to put in there.
From a careful reading of the testimony of the masters of these three tugs, I am satisfied that the radio reports on the 8th were what induced those tugs and tows to enter the breakwater, and that without such reports none of the tugs would have stopped there. I think, therefore, that unless the Hooper and Montrose were under a duty to have radio apparatus capable of receiving reports of that kind, the charge against them of negligence must necessarily fail.
This raises the question whether the Hooper and Montrose were required to have effective radio sets to pick up weather reports broadcast along the coast. Concededly, there is no statutory law on the subject applicable to tugs of that type, the radio statute applying only to steamers "licensed to carry, or carrying, fifty or more persons;" and excepting by its terms "steamers plying between ports, or places, less than two hundred miles apart." U. S. Code Annotated, title 46, § 484. The standard of seaworthiness is not, however, dependent on statutory enactment, or condemned to inertia or rigidity, but changes "with advancing knowledge, experience, and the changed appliances of navigation." The Titania (D. C.) 19 F. 101, 106; The Southwark, 191 U. S. 1, 24 S. Ct. 1, 48 L. Ed. 65. It is particularly affected by new devices of demonstrated worth, which have become recognized as regular equipment by common usage.
Radio broadcasting was no new or untried thing in March, 1928. Everywhere, and in almost every field of activity, it was being utilized as an aid to communication, and for the dissemination of information. And that radio sets were in widespread use on vessels of all kinds is clearly indicated by the testimony in this case. Twice a day the government broadcast from Arlington weather reports forecasting weather conditions. Clearly this was important information which navigators could not afford to ignore.
Captain Powell, master of the Menominee, who was a witness for the tugs, testified that prior to March, 1928, his tug, and all other seagoing tugs of his company, were equipped by the owner with efficient radio sets, and that he regarded a radio as part "of the necessary equipment" of every reasonably well-equipped tug in the coastwise service. He further testified that 90 per cent. of the coastwise tugs operating along the coast were so equipped. It is, of course, true that many of these radio sets were the personal property of the tug master, and not supplied by the owner. This was so with the Mars, Waltham, and Menominee; but, notwithstanding that fact, the use of the radio was shown to be so extensive as to amount almost to a universal practice in the navigation of coastwise tugs along the coast. I think therefore there was a duty on the part of the tug owner to supply effective receiving sets.
How have the tugs met this requirement? The Hooper had a radio set which belonged to her master, but was practically useless even before the tug left Hampton Roads, and was generally out of order. Similarly, the radio on the Montrose was the personal property of Captain Walton, and was "a home made set," which was not in very good working order, and was admittedly ineffective. Neither tug received any of the radio reports broadcast on March 8th. And Captain Savage of the Hooper admitted that if he had received such reports he would "quite likely" have turned into the breakwater. Later, he qualified this statement, but I have no reason to doubt that his first answer expressed his real opinion on the subject. Likewise, Captain Walton of the Montrose admitted that if he had received the weather reports on the 8th, which were received by the other tug captains, he "certainly would have gone into Breakwater." I cannot escape the conclusion, therefore, that if the two tugs had had proper radios, in good working order, on March 8th, they would have followed the Mars, Waltham, A. L. Walker, and Menominee into the breakwater, and would have avoided the storm which overtook them on March 9th.
I do not think there is anything in the suggestion that the two tugs were racing to New York, as there is nothing in the record to support such a contention.
I hold therefore (1) that the libels of the cargo owners against the owners of the barges have been sustained; (2) that the tugs T. J. Hooper and Montrose were unseaworthy in failing to have effective radio sets, capable of receiving weather reports on March 8th, and that the limitation proceedings instituted in their behalf should be denied; (3) that the claims of the cargo owners against the tugs should be allowed; (4) that the damage sustained by the cargo owners should be divided between the owner of the tugs and the owner of the *112 barges; (5) that the owner of the barges is entitled to recover half damages against the tugs; and (6) that the successful parties are entitled to costs.

Regardless of age, gender or the social class you belong to, you must have either used electronic cigarettes yourself or at least known someone who enjoys them.
This is because e-cigarettes are known to be an effective way to replace the more unhealthy habit of smoking cigarettes. The habit of using e-cigarettes, or “vaping”, is rising slowly in the U.S. and all over the world due to its advantages against traditional cigarettes.
Around 60 percent of people who now use e-cigarettes used to smoke cigarettes in the past. In fact, many of them still smoke traditional cigarettes.
But they maintain that vaping is helping them taper from the quantity of traditional cigarettes that they used to smoke each day.

As a parent, you always want the best for your child. And it holds true when you want to quit the harmful habit of smoking that could affect your kids and could influence them to follow it in the future.
But quitting smoking is no easy task. In fact, it is so difficult that about 95 percent of people who try to quit smoking without a proper program fail in achieving their objectives. Nicotine patches can only do so much, since you then miss the habit of “smoking” something.
As e-cigarettes are healthier than traditional cigarettes, they help you get on the path of quitting cigarettes without affecting your health as much as traditional cigarettes do. They also satisfy your mental craving of smoking, without actually having you smoke tobacco.
Sounds too good to be true? It really isn’t.
The liquid or “vape juice” in e-cigarettes does not have tobacco in it. Instead, it is composed of direct nicotine content in addition to other substances such as propylene glycol, glycerin, and flavorings. This saves you from the more harmful properties of the tobacco smoke from traditional cigarettes. But at the same time, it gives you your fair share of nicotine.
This way, they make it easier to taper off of your smoking habit. This is done first by replacing that habit with vaping, and then allowing you to slowly lower your nicotine consumption every day.
All of this contributes to a better way to quit smoking or replace it with a relatively healthier routine. This way, you don’t have to struggle with quitting smoking only to stand back at square one.
That is one of the reasons why e-cigarettes are becoming so popular among parents. If you are a parent who is worried about their smoking habit, then turning to e-cigarettes could help. But before you do so, make sure to consult with your doctor to ensure that it would be a good idea according to your personal health assessment.

Earthquake Safe Communities in Nepal
Develop and Deploy a Family Emergency Plan
» Explain the earthquake risk and discuss the emergency plan with your family.
» Identify the safe and unsafe places in each room at home (and in the office). Safe places are under well-built furniture such as heavy tables, against an inside wall, close to door frames and supporting pillars. Also find out the best way to escape from each room.
» Identify a safe place outside your home. The safe places are empty fields away from buildings, trees, telephone and electrical lines etc.
» Ask an out-of-city/country relative or friend to be your family’s contact. Family members should call this person and tell them where they are if they are unable to go or call home.
» Teach each family member what to do during an earthquake, and reinforce the learning by having drills.
» Show each family member how and when to turn off the water, gas, and electricity supply at the main sources.
» Know where the nearest fire, police stations and emergency medical centres are, as well as those who can help you during an emergency. For example, a neighbour who is a doctor.
» Plan for people with special needs such as babies, the elderly, and the pregnant.
» Paste a list of updated emergency telephone numbers on your telephone.
» Stock emergency supplies. Change the items every six months. Stock some supplies in the office too.
» Assemble an emergency kit in an easy-to-carry bag. Prepare one kit each for your home, car and office. Change the items every six months.
» Learn first-aid.
» Learn to use the fire extinguisher.
» Coordinate an emergency plan with your children’s school and your neighbours.

How does a high net worth divorce differ?
How does a high net worth divorce differ?
Going through a divorce can be an even more complicated issue when a spouse or both spouses have a high net worth. With these divorces, there are more assets to consider when dividing marital assets. While many of the same topics can be involved in the divorce, there may be numerous factors contributing to the complexity of these kinds of divorces. High net worth individuals have a greater number of assets and debts that have accrued over time. This can require more time being spent on the division of assets during the divorce process. With this process, you should seek the help of our professional attorneys to provide you with the legal counsel you need.
In the state of New Jersey, equitable distribution is practiced in divorce cases. This is to ensure a fair allocation of marital assets. However, this does not mean the distribution will be equal. The final decision on the distribution is made by a judge after the consideration of many factors.
What makes a high net worth divorce so different?
Since high net worth individuals often possess more assets, the division of these can be more time-consuming. These divorces can be impacted by prenuptial agreements, 401(k) plans, defined benefit pension plans, IRAs, restricted stock or stock options, business ownership, professional licenses, involved tax structures and planning, offshore assets, bonuses that do not vest immediately, real estate holdings and widespread investments. All of these factors may contribute to an individual’s net worth.
Whether you are the high net worth spouse or your spouse is, you should seek legal counsel. As someone with a high net worth, you want to make sure that your rights are protected since you may have to face an investigation into your assets to disclose your final net worth. If you are the opposing party, you should also have someone working on your behalf to provide a fair outcome.
What factors contribute to the distribution of assets?
When judges are distributing the assets among divorcing couples, they have many aspects to consider. These factors include the duration of the marriage, the age of both parties, the health of both parties, the income or property brought to the marriage by each spouse, the established standard of living, any written agreements made before or during the marriage relating to property distribution, economic circumstances of each party, the income and earning capacity of each party and much more. However, assets that were acquired prior to the marriage are not subject to equitable distribution. Assets that are acquired as a gift or inheritance are also not subject to equitable distribution.

Restaurant Week tomorrow - Chifa, Zahav, Amada or El Vez?
We are looking for both awesome quality food & good value for restaurant week (would hate to waste a rest week reservation on something that would normally only be $40-45pp anyway).
We've been to Amada and El Vez before, never been to Chifa or Zahav - obviously both get amazing reviews. Which would you choose and why?

1. Can you really get reservations to all of those places on such short notice? If you've never been to Zahav I'd probably go there; I've had good rw meals there in the past but youre only saving $3 off of a normal night as they do the rw menu year round. I've had mixed experiences at Garces restaurants for rw so hesitant to recommend those and I don't think youre getting much of a deal there, either. I wouldn't go to El Vez any night.

1. re: barryg
Not to hijack this thread, but I was curious as to why you wouldn't go to El Vez. I have never been, but have heard good things and honestly haven't been disappointed by Starr yet. Not knocking you, I'm just curious.
1. re: tzanghi
I don't like the food. I'm not a Starr hater, I have had good at some of his other restaurants and bad meals at others. Particularly for Mexican there are so many better options.
1. re: barryg
There's a much better option about 20 feet away from El Vez, Lolita across the street. The Lolita crew's new place, Jamonera, is half a block away and is excellent. Last time I ate at El Vez it was for brunch and it wasn't bad exactly, it just wasn't worth anywhere near the prices they're charging.
Starr's newer Mexican place, El Rey, is a lot better than El Vez as well.
1. re: Buckethead
Not in Center City, but for modern Americanized Mexican with a more "fun" vibe like El Vez, Cantina on E Passyunk has better food and much lower prices.
Los Bugambilias on South Street also has great Mexican food, more in the Tequila's-style of cuisine (refined traditional foods), but entrees are $15-25 and mostly big enough to share.
2. re: barryg
Understandable. I'm not always overwhelmed by his food, to be honest, but the atmospheres are what really gets me. Sometimes I want a really good atmosphere in a restaurant, and that's one of the main reasons I'll choose one of his places.
As to the OP, my limited RW experience amounts to a trip to The Prime Rib. It was good for me because I got to try out their prime rib for a slightly lower price. Altogether, I'm glad to say I went, but I don't remember being all that thrilled with the food. I would say go to a place that you want to try, but are not sure you'll like; that way you can sample it and see if you like it. But if know you're going to love a place, I'd suggest waiting and going all out sometime that way you can really enjoy it.
3. re: tzanghi
El Vez is fine, and I wouldn't NOT go there if someone was picking and that was where they wanted to go. On the other hand, it's JUST fine, so it's nothing I would seek out.
2. This is what I don't like about restaurant week. You can normally eat at all those restaurants for approximately the RW price. I'd be willing to guess that is true about 80% or more of the participating restaurants. Sure, you can pay more at many places, but if you order carefully, it is possible, and the RW choices are so scaled down that I think you get a worse meal then if you just order carefully off the regular menu. I think RW is ultimately a giant rip off.

1. re: Hungryin theBurbs
The best thing about RW is to go to restaurants not participating... much quieter. I usually go to Osteria during RW as they are outside of the CC boundaries for RW.
1. re: cwdonald
Well now, good suggestion CW. We have only done the RW deal once and made allowances as it was RW. Take advantage of RW by going to another great restaurant which is not participating is a perfectly simple, but overlooked by me, approach.
2. re: Hungryin theBurbs
i completely agree that most restaurants 'dumb down' their RW menu, but what i particularly like about zahav is the fact that they DO offer their regular menu. you are getting the tasting for a few dollars less than a normal night, but they also present you with a coupon for each diner with the check, good for $10 the next time you return to zahav, as well as $10 off your next visit at each of the other solomonov properties. when he still owned xochitl, this amounted to a total $30 food credit, almost paying for your RW dinner in its entirety.
3. Thanks for all of the advice. We did end up going to Chifa, and honestly, I was less than impressed. The pork buns were outstanding, as expected, but the remainder of the meal was nothing to write home about. We were also very disappointed that their famous "cheese bread" was not being served due to it being RW.. Yet another reason to go on another night and not during RW. I am very close to giving up on RW all together!

I am sorry you had such a bad experience at Chifa. My recommendation if you want to experience that type of food short of going to Lima is to seek it out in the greater Miami area. I almost wish Garces would reconceptualize the restaurant. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9855244755744934}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '112373', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:5E4UFAKMRE57WPHWRRC77OEEPBWN2OVS', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:cbfb2b45-3738-48a7-ae8c-9f2b60769e1c>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2015, 1, 25, 4, 20, 36), 'WARC-IP-Address': '64.30.228.105', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:37MV7IOQSSIS5KVMOZZ2ZQJ4ZOLDSKTT', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:30960eb1-1e9f-4613-a848-f389cd61d99d>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/829509', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:58431410-ead1-4c1d-82f7-8a919bcdfdbd>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '973', 'url': 'http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/829509', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-180-212-252.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2015-06\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web with URLs provided by Blekko for January 2015\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.19900351762771606', 'original_id': '5e19b3715a7c1843eebc54dfcb76f615ae9d17d8d85822866a6fa59f5b9bf30a'} |
After many ICOs finish they take some time before they are listed on major exchanges, how can you still make good money from them.
It is easier for tokens to be listed on Decentralized exchanges like Token.Store (https://token.store) or IDEX.market (https://idex.market/). Etherdelta has become quite useless due to their ICO and Sale to Chinese investor. I do not recommend to trade on Etherdelta anymore.
Idex.market and Token.store are new Decentralized exchanges having a good daily volume. You can check all the coins listed on these exchanges here:
https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/token-store/
https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/idex/
Most of the real investors wait for ICO project to start or launch before they sell their tokens. They want to benefit from the maximum return on investment. When the token hits major exchange, the price goes up immediately.
How to grab cheap tokens & increase the price
You will see that many tokens are sold lower than their ICO price on these decentralised exchanges, the reason being that the bounty hunters dumping their tokens. So, I would advise you to grab these tokens for cheap on any of the exchanges. If you are experienced trader, then you can also do daily trades and increase the price very easily on these exchanges.
Which tokens to trade:
I have made some good profits from these tokens:
Global Jobcoin (GJC) OriginTrail (TRAC) Verify (CRED)
I am going to continue trading these tokens since they have a possibility of doubling or tripling when they reach a major exchange. I advise you to check their business and product.
Happy Trading & wish you good profits. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'b29feb85cdbed3294c04c30b38d42859be8d9a0eb600832ddaae4612818996db'} |
California man learns he's dying from doctor on video shown on robot
While his family was aware that his condition was not great, they were shocked that news of this calibre was not delivered in person.
Julianne Spangler, a friend of Mr Quintana's daughter, posted a photo of the robot on Facebook and said it "told [Mr Quintana] he has no lungs left only option is comfort care, remove the mask helping him breathe and put him on a morphine drip until he dies".
"Devastated. I was going to lose my grandfather", said Wilharm.
This is the robot that informed 78-year-old Ernest Quintana that he only had days to live.
Wilharm, 33, said a tall machine on wheels eventually rolled into the room.
As her grandfather had a hearing problem, she had to relay the news, KTVU reported. "I think the technological advances in medicine have been wonderful, but the line of "where" and "when" need to be black and white", she added.
Her mother, Catherine Quintana, was not happy after seeing the video.
A spokeswoman for the hospital offered "sincere condolences to the family" in a statement sent to CNN. When she attempted to confirm the doctor's advice on next steps and at-home hospice, the doctor said: "you know, I don't know if he's going to get home".
Kaiser Permanente Senior Vice-President Michelle Gaskill-Hames issued a statement following the passing of Mr. Quintana nearly a week later.
Wilharm wrote to USA Today that her grandfather Ernest died last Tuesday.
She said they "don't support or encourage the use of technology to replace the personal interactions between our patients and their care teams" and the centre had fallen short on this occasion. It "allows a small hospital to have additional specialists such as a board-certified critical care physician available 24/7, enhancing the care provided and bringing additional consultative expertise to the bedside".
"This secure video technology is a live conversation with a physician using tele-video technology, and always with a nurse or other physician in the room to explain the objective and function of the technology", Ms Gaskill-Hames said.
"It does not, and did not, replace ongoing in-person evaluations and conversations with a patient and family members", the center said. "It felt like someone took the air out of me", she said.
"We regret falling short in meeting the patient's and family's expectations in this situation and we will use this as an opportunity to review how to improve patient experience with tele-video capabilities". | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '29', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.973051130771637}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '41660', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:P6SJE4MBAJF47FUNIAYFCHLFNKU6AED4', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:9df705fb-7020-4140-a3bd-e5ba3199bef5>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 3, 23, 0, 47, 14), 'WARC-IP-Address': '91.224.141.108', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:QLOSUM4VJSR7ZXNTXKSUK3ZUSNOMV6TR', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:b256efef-5574-4d08-b75b-b12425962989>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://gamesworlditalia.com/2019/03/13/california-man-learns-hes-dying-from-doctor-on-video-shown.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:0bd10cc1-92f7-4045-83e0-4f0e5e08e5d9>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '402', 'url': 'http://gamesworlditalia.com/2019/03/13/california-man-learns-hes-dying-from-doctor-on-video-shown.html', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-13\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for March 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-101-182-190.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.15 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 0.11-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.020766496658325195', 'original_id': '8b0c0b592609d211bc9d8d66206972ba58aee98a55f45575d336ee48131744e7'} |

Birthstone Guide
The modern birthstone list was established by the National Association of Jewellers in 1912, with a few updates over the years.Most people find special meaning in their birthstone, and a ring, necklace or bracelet set with their stone is a great way to honour the most important people in your life and keep thoughts of them top of mind.
Garnets were prized by the ancient Egyptians, and during the Middle Ages were exchanged to signify trust and affection. High-quality garnets have vivid colour and good translucency. Commonly found in a deep red, this crimson stone’s name comes from the word granatum, Latin for pomegranate seed.
The vibrantly purple amethyst, a variety of quartz, has long been worn by royalty and was a favourite of both St. Valentine and Leonardo da Vinci. Amethysts were once considered as rare as diamonds, and medieval soldiers believed they provided healing and calmness. High-quality specimens have saturated colour and pure purple hues.
These light blue gemstones are a variety of the mineral beryl, as is the emerald. Long associated with water, the aquamarine was especially treasured as a talisman by ancient seafaring people. Aquamarine’s cool blue hue is believed to have a calming effect on its wearer. Look for clear, bright colours and good translucency.
April is the winner of the birthstone lottery—diamonds! Treasured for their rarity and brilliance, diamonds have been prized for centuries as the symbol of eternal love. Highly valued for their brilliance and durability, diamonds also signify strength, balance, and courage.
The rich, green emerald has been held in high esteem by many cultures around the world for centuries, including the ancient Incas and Aztecs who regarded them as holy.
The lustrous pearl is the oldest known gem and symbolises purity and innocence. A rare gift from the sea, only about one in 20 pearl-growing mollusks will produce gem-quality pearls and no two are alike. Coveted by fashion icons and royalty, pearls have become an heirloom for generations of women around the world.
Because of its fiery crimson colour, ruby has long represented romance, devotion, and passion. Rubies are a variety of corundum, a mineral with great hardness well suited to everyday wear.
This vivid green gemstone is thought to ward off evil, and bring good fortune to its wearer. Peridots, like diamonds are formed deep in the earth, surfacing only during volcanic eruptions. Hawaiian mythology refers to this vibrant green gemstone as the tears of the fire goddess, Pele.
Sapphire is well known for its velvety-blue hue, but pink sapphire is gaining popularity. A variety of corundum, sapphire’s natural hardness makes it an ideal gemstone for fine jewellery. A traditional symbol of nobility, truth, and romance, the most prized sapphires have good transparency and vibrant depth of colour.
The dramatic opal stands out for the fiery range of colours contained within a single stone, and is typically cut into rounded cabochons to enhance its exceptional light play. The Greeks believed opals provided the power of prophecy and the stone is a celebrated symbol of loyalty, faith and hope. Tourmaline is the newer October birthstone. Very few gems match tourmaline’s dazzling array of colors. Perhaps this is why ancient mystics believed this October birthstone could inspire artistic expression – it has a color palette for every mood.
This bright, effervescent gemstone gets its name from the French word for lemon and has been regarded as a symbol for happiness, health and vitality for centuries. High quality citrine will have good transparency and no eye-visible inclusions. Symbolic of wisdom and longevity, blue topaz ranges in hues from deep London blue to paler sky blue. The ancient Greeks believed that topaz gave strength to the wearer.
Tanzanite may be a relative newcomer to the world of coloured stones. The tanzanite birthstone is often described as “velvety,” mostly because of its deep and saturated colour, which ranges from a pure rich blue to violet, with the blue considered most valuable.The turquoise birthstone was thought to possess many beneficial powers, like guaranteeing health and good fortune. From the 13th century on, it was believed to protect the wearer from falling (especially off horses), and would break into several pieces at the approach of disaster. Hindu mystics maintained that seeing a turquoise after beholding the new moon ensured fantastic wealth. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '51', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9531589150428772}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '99630', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:SEG2P6XCJ2WIJ7VLU72BANI5MPELEBW7', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:ec9b6520-1785-4301-aeda-d5beb2e9bf47>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2020, 4, 4, 3, 24, 15), 'WARC-IP-Address': '18.139.74.217', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:KDH3JZANYZ3B4NT74DISDIDN7A3ZINLA', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:e2e9830f-109b-4dbd-a609-22edfff4a0cc>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://www.chuwawahjewellery.com/pages/new-page-3', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:845bd674-444e-44c3-9928-6f2937105bc9>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '770', 'url': 'https://www.chuwawahjewellery.com/pages/new-page-3', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-16\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for March/April 2020\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-155.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.16 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.1-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.05811351537704468', 'original_id': '846217c2776daf1920d7f1dc7571cce907ef88c869061edf3245b303292cd5b2'} |
Getting excessive captcha challenges from Cloudflare? Post here!
If you're getting a page like below excessively:
Please let us know! We have implemented Cloudflare as a CDN/Firewall in front of our sites, but because of the amount of code being posted, sometimes a code block is similar to one that an exploit uses, so it triggers a challenge. We've tried to tweak it as much as possible, but if you're continually receiving them, please post here so we can investigate.
We will need the IP, or just post if you're the person having the issue directly after having the issue and the admin can look up your IP, provided it's the same IP as the one having the issue.
I will be made this post sticky.
Is there any way to just turn off that kind of protection? At least for the wiki? I understand protecting against DDOS's and using CloudFlare as a CDN, but protecting against these kinds of text string exploits should just be a happy bonus, and not a burden. It's happening more and more on the wiki, and there users don't even have the option of using a captcha. They're just flat out blocked, and they don't know why. It happens with totally benign text that doesn't even contain code snippets.
If I'm lucky, someone will ask me about it because they know how to contact me directly, but most people don't do that.
EDIT: I just saw in your other post that wiki users will now get the captcha challenge. That should be enough for us, thanks!
Trying to preview changes to the Add-On:Library Node Editor (wiki) page I'm getting blocked with no catchpa option. IP address is (according to the CloudFlare page) Cheers.
I don't see that IP come up... Can you post the image you're receiving? Is there a Ray ID on it?
Sure. Screenshots are here: http://imgur.com/a/gKqR5, the ray ID is shown in the second and is 2ec15628a2dd362f.
My mistake, you're working on the wiki, and I was looking at forum rules. Should be resolved now.
Indeed resolved. Thanks Smile
Please see http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=302078
These CAPTCHAs still occur quite frequently in the Tor browser (a browser designed for anonymous web surfing).
Many Cloudflare-infected sites seem to be getting better, but does Kodi have the firewall set particularly strict?
Not sure if it is notable, but Cloudflare also protects the websites for banned addons. It does appear you dodged getting a SSL certificate that throws them in with you, according to the SSL Labs check I just ran.
Did you ever try shopping for other WAF solutions like Incapsula or Sucuri (not related to any but whenever I mention Incapsula on Twitter I get a Like)?
EDIT: It appears Cloudflare no longer excessively blocks Tor users.

\section{Order of Sum over Primes of Logarithm of p over p}
Tags: Analytic Number Theory
\begin{theorem}
We have:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p = \ln x + \map \OO 1$
where:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x}$ sums over the primes less than or equal to $x$
:$\OO$ is big-$\OO$ notation.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
From the definition of the Von Mangoldt function, we have that:
:$\ds \map \Lambda m = \begin {cases}\ln p & m = p^k \text { for some prime } p \text { and } k \in \N \\ 0 & \text {otherwise} \end {cases}$
so:
{{begin-eqn}}
{{eqn | l = \sum_{m \mathop \le x} \frac {\map \Lambda m} m
| r = \sum_{k \mathop \ge 1} \sum_{p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}
}}
{{eqn | r = \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p + \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \sum_{p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}
}}
{{end-eqn}}
that is:
:$\ds \sum_{m \mathop \le x} \frac {\map \Lambda m} m - \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p = \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \sum_{p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}$
Consider the sum:
:$\ds \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \sum_{p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}$
The sum runs over the pairs of natural numbers $\tuple {k, p}$ for which $p$ is a prime with $p^k \le x$ and $k \ge 2$.
Note that if $p^k \le x$, then $p \le x$.
So, alternatively, for each prime number $p \le x$ we can sum over the natural numbers $k \ge 2$ for which $p^k \le x$.
That is:
:$\ds \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \sum_{p^k \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k} = \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2, \, p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}$
Since $p \ge 2$, we have $\ln p > 0$, so we only increase the sum by adding more terms.
So:
{{begin-eqn}}
{{eqn | l = \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2, \, p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}
| o = \le
| r = \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \frac {\ln p} {p^k}
}}
{{eqn | r = \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \ln p \paren {\sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \frac 1 {p^k} }
}}
{{end-eqn}}
We have:
{{begin-eqn}}
{{eqn | l = \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \frac 1 {p^k}
| r = \sum_{k \mathop = 0}^\infty \frac 1 {p^k} - 1 - \frac 1 p
}}
{{eqn | r = \frac 1 {1 - \frac 1 p} - 1 - \frac 1 p
| c = Sum of Geometric Sequence
}}
{{eqn | r = \frac p {p - 1} - 1 - \frac 1 p
}}
{{eqn | r = 1 + \frac 1 {p - 1} - 1 - \frac 1 p
}}
{{eqn | r = \frac 1 {p \paren {p - 1} }
}}
{{end-eqn}}
Note that for $p \ge 2$, we have:
:$\dfrac 1 2 p \le p - 1$
giving:
:$\dfrac 1 {p \paren {p - 1} } \le \dfrac 2 {p^2}$
So:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \ln p \paren {\sum_{k \mathop \ge 2} \frac 1 {p^k} } \le 2 \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^2}$
From Order of Natural Logarithm Function, we have:
:$\dfrac {\ln p} {p^2} \le \dfrac {2 \sqrt p} {p^2} = \dfrac 2 {p^{3/2} }$
for $p \ge 2$.
So:
:$\ds 2 \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^2} \le 4 \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac 1 {p^{3/2} }$
Note that we have:
:$\ds 4 \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac 1 {p^{3/2} } \le 4 \sum_{n \mathop \le x} \frac 1 {n^{3/2} }$
From Convergence of P-Series:
:$\ds \sum_{n \mathop = 1}^\infty \frac 1 {n^{3/2} }$ converges.
So from Convergent Real Sequence is Bounded, there exists a real number $C > 0$ such that:
:$\ds \sum_{n \mathop \le x} \frac 1 {n^{3/2} } \le 4 C$
for all $x$.
Then:
:$\ds 0 \le \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2, \, p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k} \le 4 C$
for all $x$.
So:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \sum_{k \mathop \ge 2, \, p^k \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} {p^k} = \map \OO 1$
That is:
:$\ds \sum_{m \mathop \le x} \frac {\map \Lambda m} m - \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p = \map \OO 1$
So that:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p - \sum_{m \mathop \le x} \frac {\map \Lambda m} m = \map \OO 1$
Therefore:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p = \sum_{m \mathop \le x} \frac {\map \Lambda m} m + \map \OO 1$
From Order of Sum of $\dfrac {\map \Lambda n} n$, we have:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p = \ln x + \map \OO 1 + \map \OO 1$
so, from Sum of Big-O Estimates:
:$\ds \sum_{p \mathop \le x} \frac {\ln p} p = \ln x + \map \OO 1$
{{qed}}

The Star!
She shoots everything in her house which makes her fans think if anybody ever lives with her since nobody guests in her shows even though a lot of people have expressed interest in doing so. She is good at imitating celebrities such as Justin Bieber, Snooki, Lady Gaga and even Sarah Palin. She also rants on numerous topics that are specifically girly ones including things that boys will never understand. She is not alone as a lot of Youtubers want to follow in her footsteps since there is a basically no investment needed for someone to become that popular. There is no doubt in her mind that she would love to be the role model for young girls to try and be successful on their own.
It is definitely easier said than done since only a few people possess her looks and charisma. Some Youtubers become one hit wonders meaning they disappear when they see that their videos did not exactly catapult them into super stardom. Just like any career, this one needs a bit of sacrifice since it is going to take up a lot of your time. She actually hired a team since she gets 50000 fan messages a month. A large amount of mail for someone who is just starting in her journey to greatness and that is what she deserves.
Jenna Marbles the Youtube Sensation
Jenna Marbles is one popular Youtuber as she discusses a variety of topics from make-up to just about anything under the sun. She also does everything in her videos as she shoots, stars in, edits and even uploads her own videos. She usually gets to accomplish all of that in a single day which is such a major accomplishment so it means she is used to doing a lot of things in one day. She is such a workaholic because she used to juggle a lot of work just to pay for her apartment’s rent.
She works as a go-go dancer, bar-tending at night clubs and working at a tanning salon where she had to deal with the disgusting chore of having to mop up customer’s sweat. It was not a pretty sight indeed but it has to be done. Her online accomplishments are interesting as she has more Instagram followers than Oprah, the same millionaire talk show host.
She stays humble despite being in a level where only a few can even manage to be. She has over one billion Youtube views as her pretty face discusses a lot of topics aimed at both girls and guys. She has eight million subscribers and it continues to grow as each day passes by. Each user knows that she can be entertaining and smart in each video because if that ain’t true then she won’t get any subscribers. Her real name is actually Jenna Mourey as Marbles is the name of her Chihuahua. The popularity of Jenna is pretty hard to match since she is good looking herself. She looks like she can get any man with the snap of her fingers. She is obviously not someone who eats a lot because if that is the case then she would not look that good in front of the camera. She is very creative with her videos as there was one time when she uses her creativity to come up with such a good video that it would automatically get shared and people who are not her fans will become her fans.
Her popularity is mainly among teenage girls as she has more Facebook likes than Hunger Games and X-Men star Jennifer Lawrence. She is pretty good in makeup as it has been evident how makeup can transform girls who are not that pretty into girls who guys would love to date. She often polls her fans for suggestions on what to do next and the suggestions pile up and she does not even know what to do first. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.988984763622284}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '16282', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:TVCEWY2VYXRERRM6GLGZ2INE3MTZQ7EK', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:7701c0ed-e9c9-4a3d-8544-82b0ab1fccd2>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 5, 23, 1, 18, 29), 'WARC-IP-Address': '75.98.175.123', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:L5TK6OXREZU23BOBSBXO534IY75AHC5J', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:1ba9df5d-c8b1-4323-b62c-f5aee934d843>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.jennamckenzie.com/author/admin/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:e8a0a2ff-0f3c-438e-9c2e-ca2577c7966a>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '662', 'url': 'http://www.jennamckenzie.com/author/admin/', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-185-224-210.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-22\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for May 2017\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.10936355590820312', 'original_id': '2d283c3198bf6ab2ac79efc641eda8064cc1aef9959a321648accc14c3d3b47f'} |

Adjusting Subclips In and Out Points
Some people will tell you that they don't like subclips (Command +U after you set In and Out points of a clip) because they can't adjust their In and Out points after they make the subclip or place the subclip in the Timeline. Maybe they can't, but you can.
It's simple; make your subclip and then highlight it in the Browser or in your Timeline then head up to the Modify menu and choose "Remove Subclip Limits". Done. Now your subclip references the original clip rather than being -as far as FCP is concerned- a separate master clip itself.
You'll notice one thing different when you have a subclip highlighted in the Timeline or in the Browser when you select this menu though:
Make Independent Clip if it's in the Timeline or Duplicate as New Master Clip if the subclip is in the Browser. Essentially both do the same thing and both -as far as your concerned overall- do the same thing as Remove Subclip Limits. Most people, including me, rarely need anything more than Remove Subclip Limits. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9274142980575562}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '104093', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:NC3IXQPXNFXYFW37DSLLWHVOM42FYHJZ', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:7210673e-ed56-43ea-90ed-4e940c5664d3>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 9, 20, 5, 28, 41), 'WARC-IP-Address': '172.217.3.33', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:WH3RLE7QTPBMEARR7W4LAUEMYOK6VS4J', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:879ed18c-66f0-4fc6-92d0-a60bac14fca8>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://imnotbruce.blogspot.com/2008_12_14_archive.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:1fc44dd8-a9fd-460b-b1c7-d33a54d89323>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '183', 'url': 'http://imnotbruce.blogspot.com/2008_12_14_archive.html', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-185-235-6.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-39\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for September 2017\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.7859233021736145', 'original_id': 'afd2724d54daaad47aff2ab691e3b463e7a6e8d39b23f3c198ec4d0f12230120'} |
Remembering the Day the Music Died - NBC New York
Remembering the Day the Music Died
Remembering the Day the Music Died
It's been nearly 50 years since the single-engine plane crashed into a snow-covered Iowa field killing everyone on board and later this month thousands of people are expected to gather in the small northern Iowa town where the rock pioneers gave their last performance.
The passing decades haven't diminished fascination with that night on Feb. 2, 1959, when 22-year-old Buddy Holly, 28-year-old J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson and 17-year-old Ritchie Valens performed in Clear Lake and then boarded the plane for a planned 300-mile flight that lasted only minutes.
"It was really like the first rock 'n' roll landmark; the first death," said rock historian Jim Dawson, who has written several books about music of that era. "They say these things come in threes. Well, all three happened at the same time."
Starting Wednesday, thousands of people are expected to gather in the small northern Iowa town where the rock pioneers gave their last performance. They'll come to the Surf Ballroom for symposiums with the three musicians' relatives, sold-out concerts and a ceremony as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame designates the building as its ninth national landmark.
And they'll discuss why after so many years, so many people still care about what songwriter Don McLean so famously called "the day the music died."
"It was the focus point for that last performance by these great artists," said Terry Stewart, president and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. "It warrants being fixed in time."
Clear Lake is an unlikely spot for a rock 'n' roll pilgrimage — especially in winter. The resort town of about 8,000 borders its namesake lake, and on winter days the cold and wind make the community 100 miles north of Des Moines anything but a tourist destination.
The crash site is on private property, a five-mile drive from Clear Lake and half-mile walk off the road. Corn grows high in adjacent fields during the summer, but in winter the fields are covered with snow and a path to the small memorial is often thick with ice. The memorial features a small cross and thin metal guitar and records, all of which are draped in flowers during the summer.
"It's a much nicer trip in the summer," said Jeff Nicholas, a longtime Clear Lake resident who heads the Surf Ballroom's board of directors. "But in the winter, you get more of a feel of what it was like."
No one tracks the number of visitors, but fans stop by throughout the year and on some summer days visitors to the crash site can create the oddity of a corn field traffic jam.
Stewart said the deaths still resonate because they occurred at a time when rock 'n' roll was going through a transition, of sorts. The sound of Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and Holly was making way for the British Invasion of the mid-1960s.
"The music was shifting and changing at that point," he said. "The crash put a punctuation point on the change."
All three musicians influenced rock and roll in their own way.
Holly's career was short, but his hiccup-vocal style, guitar play and songwriting talents had tremendous influence on later performers. The Beatles, who formed about the time of the crash, were among his early fans and fashioned their name after Holly's band, The Crickets. Holly's hit songs include "That'll Be The Day," ''Peggy Sue" and "Maybe Baby."
Richardson, "The Big Bopper," is often credited with creating the first music video with his recorded performance of "Chantilly Lace" in 1958, decades before MTV.
And Valens was one of the first musicians to apply a Mexican influence to rock 'n' roll. He recorded his huge hit "La Bamba" only months before the accident.
The plane left the airport in nearby Mason City about 1 a.m., headed for Moorhead, Minn., with the musicians looking for a break from a tiring, cold bus trip through the Upper Midwest.
It wasn't until hours later that the demolished plane was found, crumpled against a wire fence. Investigators believe the pilot, who also died, became confused amid the dark, snowy conditions and rammed the plane into the ground.
The crash set off a wave of mourning among their passionate, mostly young fans across the country. Then 12 years later the crash was immortalized as "the day the music died" in McLean's 1971 song, "American Pie."
Vonnie Amosson, who manages the Veterans of Foreign Wars hall in Clear Lake, said that ever since the plane crash, the community has embraced the tragedy. It's a continues stream of tourism dollars, and the town's chamber of commerce estimates that this year's events, dubbed "50s in February," will generate more than $4 million for Clear Lake's economy.
"It's kind of sad that that is what we are known for," Amosson said. "But on the other part of it, I think the whole '50's in February' weekend is a huge memorial and it's an honor to them."
In part because of its role in rock history, the Surf Ballroom has retained its vintage look, with a 6,000-square-foot dance floor, ceiling painted to resemble a sky, and original cloud machines on either side of the room. Ten Buddy Holly banners line the wall opposite the stage. The 2,100-capacity ballroom still hosts many national and regional performers, most of whom add their names to a backstage wall that is now crowded with drawings and signatures.
"It's quite a special place," said Nicholas, the Surf board member. "This place looks just like it did in 1959." | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '38', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9787657260894777}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '81805', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:UIHNLTOSMQWFLJGIKTZXZLLG6XC5HWGL', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:f8a69943-5093-4745-9120-f1728305fdc2>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 8, 17, 21, 55, 2), 'WARC-IP-Address': '23.196.82.203', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:KTLBLSRWCRCYM5LD3KDGOJW4B67PXNMK', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:e507a7b6-3167-4944-943d-487cd84e2cda>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/archive/NATLRemembering-the-Day-the-Music-Died.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:cca3e579-ed79-4bd6-b473-1f6584518e24>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '952', 'url': 'http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/archive/NATLRemembering-the-Day-the-Music-Died.html', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-225-194-121.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-34\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for August 2017\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.024598240852355957', 'original_id': 'c46da2a8ed466935085590becbd984fbfc6444fd7f8fced0ebe364f650d53b1b'} |
Exercise Monday
At Epicodus, we know that the next step is finding a job. However, success depends on more than just your coding skills! Today we're dedicating in-class effort to preparing all of your job search materials so they'll be ready to go when you are!
Everyone will need a partner to complete these tasks. You'll work parallel while writing content (one partner on their own laptop, ideally) and peer review each others' work when complete. At the end of the day you will submit your cover letters and LinkedIn URLs through Epicenter. An Epicodus staff member will review them with you in the upcoming weeks.
This time has been set aside specifically to ensure your job search materials are ready to go at a moment's notice after graduating Epicodus. Make the most of it! You're just about to enter a new and exciting job market, and will want to be prepared for any opportunities as they arise.
8:00 - 8:30
Review Internship and Demo Day Information
Before we begin, take the time to carefully read through the following two lessons:
• Internship Process. This will provide you an overview of what each step of the internship process looks like, where today's work fits in with the larger picture, and what additional events and requirements are coming up next.
• Demo Day. This outlines the Demo Day event you will participate in before the end of your internship, including all requirements.
8:30 - 10:15
Use the bullet points from the LinkedIn lesson to update your LinkedIn profile and create a professional-looking resume.
Focus first on your LinkedIn. This is what you will review in your meeting with an Epicodus staff member, and this is what we will provide internship companies.
After your LinkedIn profile is complete, create an updated resume. While we will only provide your LinkedIn to internship companies, you'll still want an updated resume ready to go at a moment's notice for any job opportunities that arise after your internship!
Read through the following two lessons before you begin, to see how your cover letter and resume should work together to address the specific requirements listed in a job posting:
Peer Review
Trade resumes and LinkedIn profiles with your pair and provide feedback. Is everything clear? Spelled correctly? Does it appear professional? Is it in a polished and completed state that could be given to a potential employer?
10:15 - 12:00
Sprucing up Github
Use the guidelines from the Sprucing up GitHub lesson to help make your repos as easy-to-understand and navigate as possible. Clean up every repo, and ensure each has a well-formatted README explaining the project.
12:00 - 1:00
1:00 - 3:00
Cover Letters
Write a cover letter to serve as a template for future cover letters. Address this letter to one of the internship companies currently posted in Epicenter. You won't know which companies you're interviewing with yet, of course, simply pick an interesting company to write a sample letter to. You'll later customize versions of this letter for each company you're interviewing with, as soon as you have your interview assignments.
Your cover letter will also be reviewed during your meeting with an Epicodus staff member. You're required to fully complete your letter before your appointment with a staff member so the reviewer may give you accurate feedback.
Refer back to these lessons as necessary when writing your letter:
Peer Review
Trade cover letters with your partner and review for any spelling or grammar errors, and provide feedback. Is it clear and easy to understand? Does it provide real-world examples? Does it highlight the skills you've learned at Epicodus? Could anything be improved?
3:00 - 3:45
Mock Interview - Person 1
Refer to the questions both from the Non-Technical Interview Prep and the Technical Interview to ask your pair in a mock interview.
Give honest feedback and suggestions as they answer.
3:45 - 4:30
Mock Interview - Person 2
Same as above, switch who is interviewing whom.
4:30 - 5:00
Epicenter Submissions and Miscellaneous
Finalize and submit your LinkedIn, Resume, Cover Letter, and Sign Internship Agreement assessments on Epicenter. Remember, as described in the Internship Process lesson, submission of these documents is required, and each will be reviewed just like a code review with Epicodus staff.
In Epicenter, select the internship class you’re in from the drop-down menu, and submit the materials in the same fashion as a code review. These materials must be submitted prior to your meeting with an Epicodus staff member.
In the next few days you should receive an email containing the time of your appointment with an Epicodus Career Services coordinator to review your materials.
As you wind down for the day, complete any other job-search-related tasks. This could include:
• Brainstorming go-to answers for those notorious interview questions like "Tell me about yourself?", "Why do you want to be a developer (or work in the tech industry if not as a developer)?", "Why do you want to work at X", "Tell me about a time you were challenged?", "What's your biggest strength/weakness?".

Okay, okay, enough with the gushing, right? Here’s how the game works. You take control of a plane with a super-easy system: a disk on the left for steering and a button on the right for firing (yes, you can just hold it for continuous fire, too). I was thrilled to find that the controls work so well: your plane flies in whichever direction you’re tapping on the disk, and tight maneuvers are incredibly easy to pull off. Each level consists of a number of waves; with each wave, a bunch of enemies fly onto the screen, and then the shootout begins.
IMG_0229You duel other planes and bombers for the most part, but ducks, seagulls, and UFOs also make appearances. Each enemy has its own peculiar characteristics: the wildlife is harmless, but you better watch out for the UFOs. Checkpoints occur a few times per level, so if you die, you’re not down for good. You start with three lives, but depending on your plane’s armor, those three lives may last you quite a while. Powerups also appear periodically, ranging from 1-up hearts to a gigantic red laser weapon.
During the levels, you’ll unlock more planes to aid you in aerial combat. I’ve only scratched the surface of the 50+ planes available. Many planes simply offer better stats, while others fall on the sillier side; I hear, for example, that there’s a plane with the head of a giant panda. There are eight levels, though I doubt that replay value will be a problem.
There’s a lot to commend in MiniSquadron. Though levels are sometimes tough, the checkpoints at waves 3, 6, and 9 mean that you’ll never be frustrated. Enemy planes behave like players: they can grab powerups, shoot each other, and generally add a bit more chaos into the mix. Multiplayer mode via WiFi is something that I haven’t tested, but it seems like a lot of fun, too, despite the limit of 1 vs 1 combat. Collecting planes is addicting, and greatly enhances replay value.
IMG_0230There are very few problems with the game. I did notice that putting your iPhone into lock mode mid-play doesn’t pause gameplay, which is problematic but no deal-breaker. If you have something against Tchaichovsky and Beethoven, you’ll also be wishing for the next update, which adds iPod support. And, er…well, Bluetooth multiplayer would be nice. Can you tell that I’m grasping to find complaints?
MiniSquadron is an elegant, intuitive 2D shooter that should delight genre fans and total newbies alike. The difficulty is well balanced, the presentation is great, and blowing stuff up is just daggone fun. What more could you ask for? Do yourself a favor and watch the YouTube video, because still images don’t do this frantic game justice.

Test device for performing leak detection at a plurality of test sites
ABSTRACT
The leak detection device comprises a plurality of measuring cells ( 10 ) in whose interior the absorption of a laser beam ( 17 ) is influenced by the presence of tracer gas. All of said measuring cells ( 10 ) are connected to a host unit ( 25 ) via light-conducting fibers ( 28,34 ). In the host unit ( 25 ), a laser ( 26 ) designed for modulation and a photodetector ( 37 ) are arranged. Modulation of the laser radiation is preferably performed by two-tone frequency modulation. This has the effect that the fiber length cannot significantly skew the result of the measurement.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a device for performing leak detection at a plurality of test sites.
2. Description of the Prior Art
For leak detection, use is made of a tracer gas, particularly helium, argon or another inert gas, which will pass through a possibly existing leak and be detected on the opposite side. For detecting the tracer gas, there is normally used a mass spectrometer. Since mass spectrometers are very complex and expensive, also other approaches have been developed for detection of a tracer gas. One such approach consists in using a gas-tight measuring cell which is closed by a membrane that is selectively permeable to the tracer gas. In the interior of the measuring cell, a total pressure is generated which corresponds to the partial pressure of the tracer gas outside the measuring cell. By measurement of the total pressure in the measuring cell, the presence and the concentration of the tracer gas can be determined.
Detection of the gas is also possible by absorption spectroscopy. By excitation, tracer gas existing in the measuring cell can be brought to a higher energetic level which is referred to as a metastable state. Metastable gas atoms have a characteristic absorption spectrum and thus are optically detectable by spectroscopy. In spectroscopy, it is required to modulate a laser beam passing through the metastable gas, and to evaluate the signals of the respective radiation receiver. The apparatus involved therein are very complex. In cases where a plurality of test sites exist, the respective technical investment required will be multiplied accordingly.
It is an object of the invention to provide a device for performing leak detection at a plurality of test sites, said device comprising a host unit which is to be used for all of the measurement sites and which can be situated remote from the measuring sites.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The device according to the invention is defined by claim 1. Said device comprises a plurality of measuring cells for optical detection of a tracer gas, which measuring cells are connected to a host unit via light-conducting optical fibers. The host unit comprises a frequency-variable laser and a photodetector. The host unit is configured for selective cooperation with each of the measuring cells. Thus, there is required only one host unit in which the laser beam will be generated and modulated and which further includes the evaluation unit for evaluating the received laser radiation. This makes it possible, in a technical installation, to distribute a large number of measuring cells onto different sites where leak detection is required. Evaluation of all leak tests is carried out in the host unit.
The means for transforming the tracer gas into a metastable state can comprise electrodes for generating a plasma using a buffer gas. Said plasma excites the tracer gas into a higher energetic state which is optically detectable. A further option for excitation into the metastable state is bombardment with electrons from an electron source. In this case, no buffer gas will be required.
In the device of the invention, signal transmission is performed via light conductors bridging the distance between the individual measuring cells and the host unit and establishing a connection between the measuring cells and the host unit. In the host unit, the laser beam will be modulated, and in the measuring cell, the modulation spectrum will be changed corresponding to the characteristic absorption line of the tracer gas. The resulting signal will be returned to the host unit via light-conducting fibers.
Preferably, the laser is operated with two-tone modulation (TTM). In TTM spectroscopy, two relatively closely adjacent modulation frequencies are generated whose frequency spacing (intermediate frequency) is relatively small, preferably under 1 MHz. Such an intermediate frequency Ω is not affected by chromatic dispersion in optical fibers. Thus, for applications with high modulation frequencies and long optical transmission paths, TTM spectroscopy is particularly useful. TTM spectroscopy is described in greater detail in Avetisov V. G. and Kauranen P., Appl. Opt. 35, 4705 (1996). A further limiting factor is the absorption in the optical fiber. For wavelengths of 1083 nm, this absorption will be about 1.3 dB/km; for higher wavelengths, however, it will be lower.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
FIG. 1 illustrates a measuring cell 10 for optical detection of a tracer gas, particularly helium. Measuring cell 10 is made of a gas-impermeable material, particularly of glass. The interior 11 of measuring cell 10 is closed by a test-gas inlet 12. Said test-gas inlet 12 includes a membrane 13 which is exclusively or preferably permeable to the tracer gas but is impermeable to other gases. Membrane 13 is permeable in both directions, resulting in a pressure in the interior 11 of cell 10 that is equal to the partial pressure of the tracer gas externally of the cell. Cell 10 has been evacuated beforehand so that it cannot contain any other gas except for the tracer gas. Within cell 10, an excitation means 18 is arranged for transforming the tracer gas into a higher excitation state. Said excitation means 18 can be an electron source adapted to bombard the tracer gas with electrons, thus transforming it into a higher excitation state. In another cell type, a gas discharge path can be provided wherein a buffer gas will be ionized for bringing the tracer gas into a higher excitation state. The inducing of the metastable state can also be effected by X-rays, by multiphoton excitation, by Raman type population and by collision with neutral atoms/molecules, e.g. by an ultrasonic beam.
For optical detection of the metastable tracer gas, use is made of a measuring path 14 comprising a radiation source 15 and a radiation receiver 16 receiving the laser beam 17 of said radiation source. The wavelength of the laser beam emitted by radiation source 15 is set e.g. to 1083.034 nm, so that, with helium being used as the tracer gas, starting from the metastable condition 2³S₁, a higher energy level of 2³P₂ can be reached. With a laser wavelength of 1083.025 nm, the energy level of 2³P₁ would be reached, and with a wavelength of 1082.908 nm, the energy level of 2³P₀ would be reached. When tracer gas being in its metastable state is hit by a laser beam of the designated wavelength, the radiation of this wavelength will be absorbed. Details can be gathered from DE 198 53 049 C2.
Instead of the above described type of measurement cell, one can use similar measuring cells in modified versions, e.g. a measuring cell connected to a pump device for removal of tracer gas from the interior of the measuring cell.
Radiation source 15 is a part of a light-conducting fiber 20, and radiation receiver 16 is a part of a light-conducting fiber 21.
As shown in FIG. 2, a host unit 25 is provided for generating therein the laser beams for all measuring cells 10 and for evaluating therein the laser radiation exiting from the measuring cells. Said host unit 25 includes a laser 26 with controllable laser wavelength. With the aid of a coupling-in device 28 a, the laser beam 27 generated by the laser is coupled into a light-conducting fiber 28 leading to a beam splitter 29. Said beam splitter 29 will distribute the laser beam simultaneously or sequentially onto the light-conducting fibers 20 of the individual measuring cells 10, which cells are arranged at different test sites 30 so as to be able to detect tracer gas independently from each other at different test sites. The laser beam 17 will be coupled out from said light-conducting fiber 20 and, after passing through the metastable tracer gas, the laser beam will be incoupled into said light-conducting fiber 21. All of said light-conducting fibers 21 are connected to a beam selector 33 which will selectively couple the light-conducting fibers 21 to a light-conducting fiber 34 connected to host unit 25. There, an output coupling device 35 is arranged which is operative to feed the emergent light beam to a photodetector 37 connected to a processor 38.
Said laser 26 is controlled by a controller 40 which also has the function of a modulator for modulating the laser beam with the two frequencies of a frequency generator 41.
FIGS. 3 and 4 show representations of the amplitudes A of the spectra at the input and at the output of the entire light-conducting fiber path 50 including the measuring cell 10. The input spectrum 51 includes a center frequency ω₀ which is the radiation frequency of the laser, and two sidebands which are defined by the modulation frequency. Also represented in FIG. 3 is the nonlinear characteristic chromatic dispersion line 54 of the light-conducting fiber. In the resulting output spectrum 52, the sidebands have different amplitudes.
The representations in FIGS. 3 and 4 are based on the cases where a frequency modulation FM of the laser radiation is performed. If the modulation frequency ω₁ is smaller than 1 MHz (in wavelength modulation), the chromatic dispersion is negligibly small for a length of several tens of kilometers. For high modulation frequencies (in the GHz range and above), the dispersion will lead to a FM/AM conversion which is not distinguishable from an absorption by metastable gas in the measuring cell.
A solution is offered by the two-tone modulation (TTFM) as represented by FIGS. 5 and 6. In addition to a first modulation with the frequency ω₁ (e.g. 1 GHz), a second modulation is performed with a much lower second frequency Ω≦10 MHz. The first frequency ω₁ is situated in the GHz range, and the second frequency Ω in the MHz range. In FIG. 5, the input spectrum 51 is represented. The two modulation frequencies ω₁,Ω are generated and processed simultaneously, thus generating the side bands (ω₀−w₁)±½Ω and (ω₀+ω₁)±½Ω.
In FIG. 4, the spectrum of the frequencies of the single-frequency-modulated laser (FM) with the amplitude A, is represented on the input side of the fiber path 50, and the same frequencies with amplitude A_(a) effected by the fiber chromatic dispersion are represented on the output side. In two-tone frequency modulation according to FIG. 6, by contrast, the amplitude of the frequency Ω will not be significantly influenced along the length of the light conductor path, neither due to chromatic dispersion nor due to absorption.
Although the invention has been described and illustrated with reference to specific illustrative embodiments thereof, it is not intended that the invention be limited to those illustrative embodiments. Those skilled in the art will recognize that variations and modifications can be made without departing from the true scope of the invention as defined by the claims that follow. It is therefore intended to include within the invention all such variations and modifications as fall within the scope of the appended claims and equivalents thereof.

Dpaee, Home Seller in Dallas, TX
Why is it the seller's responsibility to pay both seller's agent and buyer's agent commissions?
Asked by Dpaee, Dallas, TX Sun Mar 27, 2011
Help the community by answering this question:
Think about it this way instead of the way you are looking at it. You accept the lowest price you are willing to accept, and the commissions get added on top of that. Let's say you want $100,000. Each agent gets anout $3,000. The selling price is $106,000. The reason you do that is that when the buyer takes out a mortgage, the financing percentage goes off the total. If you make an agreement with your listing agent, then they will should be splitting that with the buyer's agent if another agent brings the buyer. If you listing agent sells the house themselves, then they get the full commission. It really doesn't cost you any more.

I always enjoy hearing another perspective:
"The buyer pays all costs unless the seller brings money to the deal. Indisputable fact." says Dan.
However, if we're going to get technical about who pays what to whom. The bank puts the mortgage loan money on the table, the buyer probably puts the down payment and did put the earnest money forward on the table, a family member or a charitable organization may put money on the table, and the lender might or might not put money on the table (in effect) as a credit. All the money on the table is split up by the escrow agent to the various parties making claims to it, including the listing agent, the buyer's agent, the title company, who in turn pays the tax certificating people, the survey people, the inspection people if any, taxes to the local government bodies if needed, and so on.
Since the bank puts the biggest chunk on the table usually, isn't it more correct to say they pay the commissions? I think Dan is splitting hairs. The buyer causes the majority of money to appear at the closing table - that's true. But the seller receives only what's left over after his mortgage loan balance is paid off plus his costs, such as a home "warranty", liens to be cleared up, and so on. The seller is considered to have paid the commissions, by custom. Commissions are attributed to his cost basis when subtractions are made from the sale price. You might ask yourself if the leftover amount after all deductions is actually what he sold it for, if you're going to say the buyer paid for everything, because the buyer did pay off his mortgage balance and all the other costs besides the commissions in your view of things, Dan.
It's a lot like saying the price of something at Wal-Mart is actually the price marked plus the sales tax, because the purchaser pays that. Or, that the price of a car is not the amount on the invoice, because the dealer may receive a rebate or have to pay an inventory tax outside of the transaction. And what about the amount you paid to have a mechanic look at it before buying or the salaries of the receptionist and so on and so forth?
I dispute your claimed fact, Dan.
You're just muddying the water for the Seller Dpaee and trying to stir up trouble.

For the same reason that you did not pay a commission when you bought the house!

What a breath of fresh air Joan. I nearly puke every time I hear the same old tired "seminar' taught responses to this question.
The low entry threshold to this industry, both educationally and financially, only impresses those inside the field as the general public does not see us as being on par with true professionals like doctors, lawyers, CPA's, etc., and for good reason.
Merely beating a drum doesn't make one a member of the band.

Alright, I'm sorry but sometimes I just can't keep my mouth shut and I am going to temporarily hijack this thread to set some things straight:
Kim, I am sure you are a wonderful agent and an asset to all who hire you so please understand that I am taking issue with what you say, not with you personally.
Your first paragraph I agree with for the most part.
The second one is making me chomp at the bit.
In NJ we require 70 hours of education and to pass a test that isn't particularly difficult, a high school diploma, to be 18 and not a convicted felon. I would not call that impressive. The amount of education required is minimal and by no means are all agents created equal. Being called a Realtor® means having to pay dues in order to do business. In NJ in order to use the mls, you have to be a Realtor. No broker will hire you unless you are a Realtor. It doesn't make one more ethical just because we have to sign a code of ethics. We all know there are plenty of unethical realtors out there. Even the exalted tax benefit really isn't all that impressive- for most people it makes little financial difference.
The NAR is the most powerful lobby organization in the US which says a lot since there are a lot of well-monied lobby organizations which all contribute to the buying of our politicians for self-serving agendas.
This is nothing to be proud of as far as I'm concerned and I believe the NAR has done more of a disservice to our already tarnished profession than helped.
Regarding whether or not agents are worth the money: many, maybe even most are, but obviously plenty aren't and I think to paint a broad brush in response to a question posted by a seller who is one of many these days that are finding themselves in a financially difficult situation is not right. We should be constantly striving to improve this profession, not perpetuate some of the sometimes justifiable stereotypes.
I apologize for my blathering. I know many will disagree and that's fine but I just felt the need to say what I said.

You can always ask your agent to reduce the commission, but he's under no obligation to do it, and if he operates under a broker other than himself, it's doubtful that the broker will allow it. You made an agreement to pay the commission, and without knowing all the details, it's difficult to say whether or not your agent earned his pay. Let's assume he did - when the buyer comes back after the deal is agreed to, the option period is over and it's time to move ahead to closing, what will be your response when he says "Oh, I feel a little pinched by the price, I really need to renegotiate the price with you"? Negotiating a less than 6% commission when the property is listed is one thing, afterward is another thing completely.
I am sorry that you feel like selling real property is a bit like selling cars - I can assure you the two are nothing alike. Professionals that take the real estate industry seriously are nothing like car dealers, the amount of knowledge we must possess and the education we must continue to possess it are significant, the ethics we maintain are considerable, and the lobby we bring to real estate issues nationwide are substantial. When you continue to be able to deduct your mortgage interest from your annual income tax, thank a Realtor. When you sell a property without a state transfer tax, thank a Texas Realtor. When you pay a 6% to get your home sold by a professional with the skill and knowledge to help you sell at the best price the market will bear, in the shortest amount of time possible, thank a Metrotex Association of Realtors Realtor. We are worth the money.

You are only paying your agent's broker to list and market your property. The broker of the listing agent is offering a part of the commission earned to any agent who brings a buyer to the transaction.

The more I thought about this question - the more I realized that it's all a matter of perspective really.
Basically you (the Seller) are hiring the Listing Agent to sell your home for say 6% commission.
That's it. Now that Listing Agent then goes out and "hires" Buyers' Agents by offering them 1/2 of the commission circa 3% to bring a Buyer to the property. So you can think of it this way -
You are hiring a Professional to sell your home. That professional then sub-contracts with other Professionals in the marketplace to match a Seller and Buyer together.
The system works remarkably well when you think about it. And I read another response which said
"You aren't complaining when you ARE the Buyer and not paying a Commission up front." -
So it really all comes out in the wash so to speak. You pay a little more when you go to sell -
but when you turn around and buy - you aren't paying anything !
But ultimately it comes down to "value" - according to Nat'l Assn. of Realtors which does EXTENSIVE
market analysis - both locally and nationwide -
Homes sold with the help of a real estate professional sold on average for 12 to 32 percent more than FSBO sales. The median FSBO selling price in 2006 was $187,200, compared with $247,000 for agent-assisted transactions. That's a substantial difference.
So even AFTER paying a Commission of 6% - the Seller is still coming out ahead
on average vs. trying to go the For Sale by Owner route.

You forgot one major factor in why people "use" us Mack. We are the keepers of the information. If they don't use us, they don't get the information. But years ago when someone wanted information, they went to a library. Now they surf the net and get information from libraries across the nation with a few clicks of a mouse. Things change and our industry has failed to keep up. Thankfully, the lobbyists have greased enough palms to make sure small matters such as this don't matter. I'm not naive...I understand that is how our government works. And education is more than just reading books. It's studying an industry at every level. I certainly may in the financial industry that are now broke, so generalizations such as yours don't hold water.
I don't fault those of you who perpetuate the myth that most agents are worth what they're paid...after all, it's human nature. And we can all continue to beat our chests and yell at the top of our lungs about how professional, knowledgeable, skilled, ethical, etc. we are, but I simply can't find real evidence to support the stance that the majority in our industry fits that mold. If I lie to myself, it becomes far too easy to lie to others.
But again, I don't fault those who have a different viewpoint. For many, it's the only way they can go forward each day.

Phil (your first answer) has it the simplest and cleanest.
Your listing agent negotiates a commission with you, the seller, to sell your home. Period.
Then from that fee, your listing agency determines how much they will pay the buyer's agent if and when they bring a ready, willing and able buyer. In some cases, the listing agent brings the buyer too, and then NO buyer's agent gets paid.

Alan May, Real Estate Pro in 60201
And you accomplished that, how?
Let's talk about ethics. The thing about having an established Code of Ethics is that everyone can see what is expected. Having a personal COE is nice, but it isn't worth the paper it's printed on unless people can hold you to the contents.
As far as the "used-car" analogy goes, it's even weaker than real estate agents comparing themselves to attorneys and doctors. Regardless of how low the bar may be, the fact remains that we are State-licensed, and meet the qualifications for selling real estate.
As far as "The NAR is the most powerful lobby organization in the US," according to OpenSecrets.org, "real estate" is #5, behind "Lawyers/Law Firms," "Retired," "Health Professionals," and "Securities/Investments" - something to note when your financial planner or a writer in the Wall Street Journal rips real estate.
- Regarding whether or not agents are worth the money:
One fact of life - if the agent doesn't produce, they don't get paid.
This isn't an abstract concept, by the way. It's not enough to market a home, hold open houses every week, buy advertising, hire stagers and photographers and advise on home prep and line up contractors and movers and all of the ancillary things real estate agents do in a transaction - if there is no deal, the agent does not get paid. If there is a deal, then - and only then - does the agent get paid.
Yes, times are tough. What's really tough is to get homes sold. Brokers in every field need to have ready, willing, and able buyers on one hand; they need to have quality, well-priced merchandise on the other. Most real estate brokers I know aren't especially eager to take on listings that aren't of good quality and well-priced, and I'm really surprised that they don't demand higher fees to take these listings on, as selling many of them would be quite an accomplishment.
- There is an argument that the buyer truly pays the commission instead of the seller.
Cash is the glue that holds a deal together, and whoever brings the cash pays the bills. The buyer pays off the Seller's mortgage, they pay the transfer taxes, they pay the title and escrow fees and all of that - from one point of view.
The same point of view holds that you, the consumer, pay packaging and advertising and delivery costs for the supermarket. C'est la vie, non?

However, the "answer" session digressed into agents sharp shooting each other; especially interstate. Don't Mess With Texas.

I hope you can make some sense of the numerous comments here. You original question of the why has been answered (that it is to attract buyers through other brokers than the one you hired and to get paid from the commission you promised that broker).
Of course all sales situations resemble each other, including used car sales, but your Realtor should be bringing more than just sales tactics but also sales strategy and a wealth of knowledge that most ordinary people don't have. That's the reason for offering a commission in the first place: to get those.
I am not sure what brought on all the sniping. It needs to be taken off-line. MLS data are proprietary to the member brokers - it's not public data, Mack and Peter. Texas, being a non-disclosure state, does not have a repository for public disclosure of sales data. I love Trulia. Zillow and other webplaces attempt to provide their estimate of value, but if a process uses faulty data on the input side, only faulty data can come out.
However, sales data method is only 1 of 3 accepted methods for determining value: depreciated reconstruction cost and income being the other 2 methods. But the income method would again require non-public data to establish a value, while reconstruction cost would require cooperation with builders and insurance folks.
Given the long-term trend of real estate to rise in price, a seller can expect to sell at any price he chooses so long as he is willing to wait long enough. Which brings us to shorter term considerations. At any moment in time buyers are present (just like in the stock brokerage arena) who are willing to pay a certain price. But they come and go. Some will be higher than the listed price, and these days many will be lower.
Statistically they form a distribution curve around the "value" of the property. We can't see the cuve easily because it is formed over a long period, sometimes more than a year. Sellers don't want to wait that long to discover what the curve looks like. They have to deal with the shorter term vagaries, usually selecting the highest offer available at the point in time. Realtors can estimate the curve going into the listing to help the seller understand what might happen.
For sellers and buyers to get sales data from the MLS is a logical reason for using a Realtor. It's all the other things that a Realtor can offer that differentiate one Realtor from another.
Joan, it's not about pride. Please see my blog http://www.trulia.com/blog/t_e_sumner/2011/03/is_450_hours_e…
Not to put too fine a point on it, but the 1,200 hours is required for a cosmetologist-hair stylist, not just a barber (someone to cut/style your hair). Besies, as highly trained as they are I sincerely doubt if any of those licensees know the difference between listing and lis pendens.

Very cute "cable Guy" reference Peter. But please don't quit your day job.
My question remains Peter. Please provide at least 3 of the many sources you use (outside the MLS) that provide accurate sales data. You can't. You use the MLS...period. And by the way, that "battle" you mention has been fought and lost. We are a non-disclosure state for a reason. But I guess snide remarks are more your forte than research.
I don't know Mack from Peter, but I am sensible enough to know that I don't make determinations about one's competence, skills, knowledge, etc. based on a post. Apparently Peter has a sixth sense that allows for this. Perhaps that is where his marginal attempt at humor comes from.

Mack, yes here in North Texas we report the CDOM. It is an interesting fact but not the lynchpin by any means. It's the pricing that truly makes a difference. If the property is priced appropriately it will sell. This battle about who "owns" the information is one that has raged for years. The lawyers and courts will decide that one. There are so many alternate websites to get this info anyway, so BIG deal on that issue.
I have this sense that you do a terrific job for your clients because you have a good grasp of the realities involved in getting deals done. We should be good advocates for our clients as well as for our profession. It is obvious you care about your profession and what we do for our clients. You know in the UK they have estate agents. But then you as a buyer make all the arrangements with the sellers to see their properties and have to listen to them give you their pitch on why you should buy their house. The people I have worked with from the UK and from France love our system!
To my experience the majority of agents are good hard working people with integrity who really do a good job being advocates for their clients. 20% to 25% are not the caliber I would hope to deal with, but that can be true in any profession. Mortgage officers, Title Services, Inspectors, AND the Cable GUY!

Sorry, meant to say the NAR is one of the most powerful lobby organizations in the US. Who cares if its #1 or #10, its still an organization that has enforced membership for the most part and has a lot of money at its disposal to throw at politicians.
T.E., TREC requires 210 hours. Great. In NJ, the requirement to be a hair stylist is 1200 hours, manicurist, 300 and skin care 600. Still feel proud of the 210 hour requirement?
Look, contrary to what Mack thinks, I love real estate and I know there are a lot of good/great agents out there. I happen to work with a lot of them and I know how hard good agents work and the value they bring. But just pretending as if our industry is fine and dandy just the way it is and there are no problems that need to be addressed isn't doing anyone, the public or our industry any favors.
REAs need to realize that things are changing and changing quickly and we better keep up with the times. We also better have more awareness of what the NAR is doing with our money because I can guarantee you the public's perception of things is often very different than our own.
Dpaee, I am truly sorry for taking things off track. I will agree with this: you can't change a contract after the fact. You agreed to pay a certain amount, signed on the dotted line and you are obligated to do that. To reiterate, the seller pays the commission out of the proceeds the buyer brings to the table. YOU agreed to pay a certain amount but it comes out of the money the buyer hands over. I know that 5% hurts but as others have mentioned, you had other options and you chose to hire an agent and pay a certain amount and you are now obligated to honor your contract.

"The second one is making me chomp at the bit" - I can buy in to that Joan. I will be the first to agree that it does not take a great deal of education to get into this business - but to succeed at it? Perhaps I should have said that "some of us are worth the money" - I know that I am. And yes, I do get somewhat annoyed when asked to "work on" the commission late in the game. Again, being asked to negotiate the commission agreement upfront doesn't bother me at all - and I do negotiate. But please Mr. Seller, don't ask me to do it when you agreed to pay x and I've done what I was asked to do in a professional, personally ethical manner and have produced a sale for you. Don't ask me to do it when I've kept you from making several deal-killing mistakes throughout the process. While the end-run commission reduction question has happened to me a couple of times, I am pretty thorough with the process and agreement explanation at list time that a couple of times have been the only times.
Mack - I hold myself to the NAR established COE and my personal COE, plus a few more local ones. I like to sleep at night - doing business any other way simply isn't worth it. No, I don't have the paid hours of education required by doctors and attorneys, but I know many of them and feel very confident stating as fact that I am as equally professional in my business as they are in theirs - education or not, my attorney and physician clients trust me with real estate, just like I trust them with the jobs I hire them to do.
Guy, I am not beating a drum in order to be a member of the band, nor have I attended any seminar to form what are my own opinions. I don't have to justify my work by quoting NAR dogma to the consumer, but the statements I made are true. Like it or not, those lobbies have been part and parcel to those protections being kept for the consumer. Is the NAR a perfect organization? No. Are all of their positions ones that I would choose? No. Are they right on a lot of stuff in spite of that? Yes.
It's possible that I popped off too soon, having lately become quite annoyed at consumers that assume that all agents are the same, none of us are worth our pay and have no pride in the jobs that we do. Maybe I've just had a bad day, maybe the seller just had a bad day. Still, when I hear that the seller feels a little "pinched" about his agreed commission, I am not hearing "I will have difficulty paying this much" but "I don't want to uphold the agreement I made". It's possible that I read something into that question that isn't there, but I have been doing this long enough to know it's a pretty small possibility.
"he same point of view holds that you, the consumer, pay packaging and advertising and delivery costs for the supermarket. C'est la vie, non?" Another conversation entirely - but that is certainly the best description of why things cost what they do - straight out of economics class and it's spot on.

You do that only if that is what your listing agreement says. In Texas it is customary for the listing agent to collect the listing commission and from that commission the listing agent/Broker then pays the Buyer agent his commission. If you do not authorize the listing agent to pay the buyer agent, then I seriously doubt that any buyer agents will be interested to show your property. Most professionals I know work in order to make a living, not as a charity and even most charities pay their people well for a job well done.
I agree with most here and especially - Kim: When you continue to be able to deduct your mortgage interest from your annual income tax, thank a Realtor.

Buyers can pay for their services on their own. There's nothing that says the seller must pay for both, but it is customary in residential sales. In commercial sales buyers frequently pay, not the seller. The representation agreement basically says that the buyer agrees to pay, but the buyer's agent will attempt to get the seller to pay and if not, the buyer is obligated to pay.
The MLS is a cooperative of brokers who offer a commission to another broker bring them a buyer. Hence, if it's in MLS, it's almost for sure that the seller has agreed to attract buyers from any broker by paying a commission. That's the long and short of it.
As to the other comments about how easy it is to be a Realtor and how unethical conduct is tolerated - I strenuously disagree with these characterizations. TREC requires 210 hours just to take the licensing exam. After licensing, the Realtor must take 60 hours of training every year for 3 years and then 15 hours for renewals.
Ethically, Realtors must (to be renewed) take a legal update and an Ethics course. The Texas Association of Realtors runs a program that allows ethics complaints to be filed anonymously, just to make sure that ethical compliance is high on the priority list for all Texas Realtors.
I can't comment on other places, but we don't cotton to unethical or dumb Realtors - it's a disservice to our customers and the public.

Dpaee, what is the price of your house? The higher the price of the home, the more likely it is for the agents to negotiate on their commission. Also, the amount you will accept for the house is determined by how motivated you are to move. If you only want to move because you feel you can buy more for your money now, then you will hold out for a higher price most likely. If you really need to sell, you will accept the best offer you are getting in the shortest period of time.
When thinking about how much an agent deserves to earn, you have to realize that most homes are not sold by the listing agent, So that each person involved in the transaction ends up with 1.5% of a 6% commission because they split it with the company they work for.

Welcome to the world of real estate Dpaee. You're correct that it doesn't really matter what you need to net from the sale...the only thing that really matters is what the market will allow.
Keep in mind that few agents will agree to reduce their commission until they realize that 5% if better than nothing. If you decide to interview additional agents, let those agents know in advance of your commission structure and that it's not negotiable. Then you'll only be interviewing agents who you already know will work for the reduced commission.
Believe me, the agent that said you couldn't trust her unless she received 6% commission probably can't be trusted even at 8%.

The agent who got all huffy and puffy with you about asking what you had every right to ask was absolutely wrong and I would have called her broker and let the broker know about the agent's unprofessional behavior.
To answer your question, I can understand why it may seem unfair, however its a way for the commission to be handled with the proceeds from the sale, as opposed to out of pocket. You price your home with the commission in mind. The buyer may not think of it that way but they are the ones who are handing you the check at the closing table so although the commission comes out of your proceeds, the buyer pays you the money to do just that.

I'm a newbie here and learning how this works. I didn't actually mean to select Robin as the best answer. I was trying to respond to her answer. Unfortunately for me, my commission was not determined as you suggest. Nothing was really mentioned about what I wanted to get out of my house. Everything seemed to focus on what the market would allow. And, even though I asked that my agent reduce the standard 6% commission, none of the agents I interviewed were willing to reduce. One even reprimanded me for asking, wanting to know how I would feel if my boss expected me to do my best work for a reduced salary. And, if she was willing to reduce her commission, how could I trust her to do her best work for me if I wasn't willing to pay for her work.

It is customary, but not mandatory for the seller to pay his/her broker and the broker will be responsible for paying the buyer agent upon a successful closing. If you hire an agent, that agent will generally be obligated to pay the buyer agent a set amount (as determined by your listing agreement) once he/she places your home in the MLS.
You can also try to sell FSBO or pay a flat fee broker and save money on the listing side of the transaction. You could consider offering less than 3% to the buyer agent (for instance, a 5% total comissions split between the two agents/brokers)....just depends on your motivation and preferred time frame to sell.

In reality the closing costs are shared by the seller and buyer. Your agent should give you a sellers net sheet from the outset of the transaction. This breaks down the costs associated with the sale of your home and gives you an idea how much money you will net after selling your home based on the price. This knowledge will help a seller determine the minimum amount of money they are willing to accept at the closing of the transaction.

Dpaee - great question! In short, many years ago when a seller listed their home the law was such that only the seller had representation and it was paid by the seller. However, due to numerous law suits against sellers, many states went for the "Agency" state ruling that buyers should have somebody looking out for them. While it may seem unfair to you, it provides more protection against law suits.
Unfortunately, if you choose not to pay it then no real estate agent in their right mind will represent you nor will a buyer's agent show your property. Good luck!

Because most often the buyer is financing and they have enough cash out of pocket. It is easier for most deals to build it in to the sellers side as most buyers would rather finance more.

Excellent question Dpaee and it definitely resulted in a robust discussion.

Is it the best way to get your home sold? Absolutely.

One viewpoint here that is not being considered is this sellers that have recently lost a tremendous amount of value in their homes. I am selling my home and only have offers that leave me empty handed or walking away with $500. (I put 25K cash into this home in the last three years) Add into that equation, the buyers automatically assume that you are going to pay half their closing and a lot of sellers these days are are really being screwed. And let's be honest most sellers are going to up the price of their home based on what the agents are going to walk away with anyway. I would love to see the system revamped so that both sides bear the burden of the agents fees (yes, when I buy as well) In the current economic situation sellers are asked to lay down and let the buyers walk all over them and I don't feel the old system is doing anyone any favors. Perhaps with each side bearing their fair share of the "costs" there would be fewer homes in foreclosure and the housing market would rebound. The answer that "this is the way it's always been done," is not helpful to anyone. Sometimes things do change for the better. Luckily, I have an agent that is willing to work for a set fee because she knows my situation. If you allow both sides to pay the costs for realtors the huge swings in home values and the horrible economy will not have as strong of an adverse effect on sellers in the worst of times and therefore would help the economy overall. Let's even the playing field for distressed home-sellers! When you say ."It's a buyers market," what you really mean is we are sticking it to the current sellers and homeowners!

But the Agents or Brokers have set the fees they want to get the most perks for the buyer in order to make a sale (unfortunatly they have made this a standard thru the years) and if the buyer really, really wants your property he may comply with your request, if not, you most likely will loose a sale. It is all just a sales pitch for the Agents and Brokers - (At your expense)

To simplify this answer in basic outline.
The seller is compensating the listing Brokerage Firm. Typically there is a pass through at closing from the listing brokerage to the Selling brokerage. These Brokerage firms are responsible for the adequate compensation of their individual Agents. The "Seller" is only paying their Brokerage firm.
For a typical breakdown of the "Breakout" Listing agency 3% Buying Agency 3%
Brokerage to Agent: .50% or 1.5% Broker to Agent
100,000 sale workout: Sellers Agency splits $3000.00/ Buyers Agency splits $3000.00
Typical exp ratio per transaction here in NYC $600.00 to $800.00 in advertising costs on each side of the deal . This is an Exp. to the Brokerage. As an agent, I have lost money due to Expenses on both the sell side and the buy side. If you want a break down of the most resent loss.
1722 Madison in Ridgewood. NY Ini sale price. 660K 1.5 % comm. $9,900.00
245 Hours Working the deal would have worked out to 40 Dollars and hour. Before the Chop.
Bank Cut structure down to 4% total on contract. Based on Additional Concessions I requested for the buyer.
Savings to Buyer, 22K Plus 3.5% Finance rate.
New sale price 638K Projected Comm. $ 6,380.00 0r 26 dollars per hour. Not bad for 30 Days work.
Tax rate .369% NYS, FED Leaves .61 cents on the dollar
NY City 10% makes it a Cool .53 cents on the dollar.
Don't forget travel, insurance, gas, and tolls!. Let's Just face it. If I did not love my Job, If I did not get a kick out of helping people make their dreams come true, I couldn't afford to do my Job! Some deals work out quickly. Some don't. I work on the Buyers side of the deal for the most part. It is my Job to complete the Due Dil for my client. The sellers Agency has a job to protect their Client with the same respect as I have for mine.
Sure, From time to time things go so smooth that it is like skating on ice. It looks easy from the Client's side.
I'm sure that a lot of the Seller's Agency would say the same about their client. Truth is. Buyer's Agents and Seller's Agent have to do a lot of talking. From time to time we go at it tooth,nail, and chain saw. When it's time to sit down at that table, the Lawyers take over and the fighting is done"almost" The Agents lay down their swords once again and smile at one another. We will meet again. We will continue to answer the other realtor's phone call. Even when that smell of burnt flesh from the last scorching we took is still lofting in our own home. End of the story on 1722? The deal broke up at the closing when the bank disclosed Contractor Liens payable by them to a service provider. Seems that the Contractor filed the lien one day before closing!
So, the Agents, Brokers, bank, and lawyers will meet again. Yes that was Monday 8/15/2011. I stopped counting the hours last month, but my Broker has not!

You pay the buyers agent for finding the buyer of your property. If the listing agent could do it for 3%, there would be no need to pay the buyers agent the other 3%. If your agent is willing to take 3% total commission, he can split it up however you all agree too. The only problem is try to find a realtor that would show a 1.5% commission.

I want to share a link that helps put some perspective on the entire commission question.
Most of us don't know who Colby Sambrotto is. He created a web company that assists homeowners who want to sell their homes by themselves or with a discount broker.
Now, Mr. Sambrotto will stubbornly insist that homeowners can sell their homes without an agent, but he turned to a real estate broker when he couldn't sell his condo in New York. Note that Sambrotto was clueless about what price he should sell the unit for and his broker had to convince him he was way under the market.
By upping the price $150,000, the sale covered the cost of the $120,000 in commission - and more importantly got results.
Sambrotto sniffed that the Manhattan market is tightly controlled by real estate agents. (If that's the case, why would anyone waste their time and money using his service.)
Here is the link:
Real estate professionals live, eat and breath the market. That's who you are competing against when you go to sell on your own. Agents and brokers are widely networked. Those contacts have value.
This is an excellent question, Dpaee. Thanks for your post.

Hi Dpaee,
The seller pays one comission. The comission is then co-broked to the selling broker if there is one. In some areas of the country each side pays respectively, but in most areas, the seller agrees to pay the Realtor as set fee and the realtor pays out from there :O)

The seller pays one cost for commission and then that commission is split between the listing agent and the buyer's agent. Basically, the listing agent is paying a portion of his/her commission the buyer's agent for procuring a ready, willing and able buyer. The seller does not pay both the listing and buyer's agent, he/she pays only the listing agent. The listing agent has the authority to decide how much of their commission they want to share. For example: I charge a 6% commission rate to list properties and I will pay a buyer's agent 2.7% of that if they produce a ready, willing and able buyer. So I keep 3.3% and share 2,7% with the buyer's agent.

The commission rate you're paying your agent is split between them and the Buyers agent. This is the cost of getting your home sold. While there's no law or rule that it must be done this way the reason it is is simple, if the buyer had to pay the fee separately , it could not be rolled into the mortgage and it would simply add that much more to the buyers closing costs effectively taking a large number of buyers out of the equation. When you bought the house you're now selling would you have wanted to pay your agent 2.5%-3%+/- more as an out of pocket expense?
You need to understand that while you feel you're paying both sides commission, the buyer feels they paying both sides; as it's their money your paying with. If you were only paying one side and the buyer had to pay their broker, do you honestly believe you'd get the same price? It's only one pie and this is the most practical way of slicing it.

Asa home seller you are not required or responsible for anything you do not want to do. The reality of selling a home is as a seller you pay teh listing agent an agreed upon amount to sell your home. They in turn split their commission with a buyer agent if they bring a buyer to your home. It is not costing you anything addition as if your listing agent found his/her own buyer. Your listing agent works for you, their job is to guide you, assist you and find a buyer to buy at the best possible price in the quickest amount of time. Sure you could use a discount broker, get discount service and still be waiting for that buyer, you could try it yourself and sell for alot less and have to pay an attiorney to review your sale. A good listing agent mor ethan pays for teh commission you pay in service and that quicker sale at that better price.

It is the seller's decision to pay a buyer's agent a certain portion of the total commission. The seller makes this decision at the time he or she enters into a listing agreement with an agent. As I listing agent, I recommend that my sellers agree to pay buyer's agents because it will greatly increase traffic to their listing and result in a faster sale.

McLaren Vale house fire - 2 November
Friday, November 2 at 2:40am with information on a structure fire at McLaren Vale.
Just before 1am this morning, CFS crews were called to the home on Binney Road, at McLaren Vale.
The house and two cars in the driveway were on fire when firefighters arrived. It’s believed the fire may been started at one of the cars but Fire Cause Investigators have been called to the scene to confirm this.
The eight CFS crews worked to protect surrounding homes from the fire spreading but were unable to save the building. The estimated damage bill is between $200,000 and $300,000. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'c3eac3cd64e3e50ec48c1ee41d58f69a0fc3da1370a9eaeadafb814aa9f8c9a1'} |
Vaccination levels associated with lack of measles transmission among preschool-aged populations in the United States, 1989-1991.
Knowledge of the minimum level of vaccination capable of preventing measles transmission in an age group is helpful for establishing program targets for measles elimination. In 1990, during the measles resurgence in the United States, one-half of cases occurred in children aged <5 years. Although estimated population immunity among persons >or=6 years of age was 93%, immunity was lower and varied widely among preschool-aged children. To examine the association of vaccine coverage at 2 years of age and measles incidence among preschool-aged children, we analyzed ecological studies of measles incidence in Milwaukee (Wisconsin) census tracts, Dallas (Texas) ZIP code areas, and selected cities during the 1989-1991 measles resurgence. In each study area, measles incidence decreased rapidly with increasing measles vaccine coverage and became low or negligible when coverage was >or=80%. Regression analysis also suggested that measles would not be transmitted when vaccine coverage was at least 79%. A minimum vaccine coverage of approximately 80% at the second birthday in census tracts, ZIP code areas, and cities in the United States may be sufficient to prevent measles transmission among preschool-aged children if population immunity is >or=93% among persons >or=6 years of age. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '79e5aba91786e177524976d7a2cc720927c7b055eea5031bc250833f7e0a31be'} |

Animal Shelter Mixup: Where is Nitro?
Animal Shelter Mixup: Where is Nitro?
Wednesdays are a madhouse at Bibb County's animal shelter, with rescuers desperately trying to get dogs and cats to safety while, in a back room, preparations are made to kill dogs and cats.
Yesterday, rescuers picked up three male dogs they had "holds" on: Hydro, Nitro and Tugger.
Or so they thought.
Late last night, donors who had helped pay for the cost of rescuing and vetting the dogs were notified that something had gone terribly, terribly wrong. Hydro had no ID collar at all, and the number on Tugger wasn't the one rescuers expected. Fortunately, they were able to positively identify Tugger and Hydro.
Nitro, however, is another story. The dog they were given as Nitro isn't him. In fact, it isn't even a "him," according to rescuer Debi Morford Kirkland. The dog they were given as Nitro is a female. As if that isn't confusing enough, that dog is wearing the ID number of a dog who was killed at the shelter on July 5.
Nitro was supposed to be adopted, neutered and vetted, and go to Maine Lab Rescue to find a permanent home.
Rescuers have tentatively identified the female as Morgan, who was on the list as killed Wednesday, along with 12 other dogs and five cats. So now the question becomes, is Nitro alive or did he get killed by mistake? Rescuers hope to get answers today.

What to do with an old or used hearing aid is a dilemma that arises for many people. You might have just updated your old one with a newer unit, you might have received a cochlear implant and thus have no need for yours any longer, or it could have belonged to a member of the family who no longer needs it.
If the hearing aid was originally expensive and is in good working order, you can consider selling it on a forum such as eBay or Craig's List. Before doing this, however, check to see if it is legal to do so in your area; there are a surprising number of states in which it is not legal to sell used hearing aids. If you decide to try to sell it, be sure to list in your ad all the relevant information a buyer would want to know: the manufacturer and model number, the unit's age and condition, warranty type, the type of battery it takes, and your reason for selling it. Also, don't expect to get nearly as much money as you paid for it; look for ads for similar hearing aids, and keep yours within the same range.
An excellent alternate option is to give your used hearing aid to someone who needs it. Many people who need hearing aids cannot afford them, and there are organizations that collect old hearing aids and distribute them to people who need them. U.S. organizations that collect hearing aids and give them to people who need them include Lions Clubs, Hear Now by the Starkey Foundation, and Sertoma. Another organization called Worldwide Hearing also collects used hearing aids for redistribution in developing nations where the people need them but cannot afford them.

abstract: 'We suggest a simple analytical description of the S-wave isoscalar $\pi\pi$ amplitude, which corresponds to a joint dressing of the bare resonance and background contributions. The amplitude describes well the experimental data on the $\delta^0_0$ phase shift in the energy region below 900 MeV and has two poles in the $Re\ s >\ 0$ half-plane. Besides the well-known pole of $\sigma(600)$-meson with $Re\ s \sim m_{\pi}^2$, there exists a more distant pole with $Re\ s \sim 0.6 \ GeV^2$. Our analysis indicates for the dynamical origin of the $\sigma(600)$ pole, while the second pole should be associated with lowest $q\bar{q}$ state.'

Introduction
============
The properties of the lightest scalar meson $\sigma(600)$ are very important for interpretation of a scalar family and details of the chiral symmetry breaking. Appearance of a new experimental information and the theory development in the low energy region generated an extensive discussion on this issue (see [@Min; @Ani00; @Kle; @Tor; @Bev] and references therein). As for existence of $\sigma(600)$, now it is a commonly accepted fact and this resonance is included back into Particle Data Group’s tables.
There is a long story concerning the resonance interpretation of the S-wave amplitude $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi$ with isospin I=0. One of the key moments of this story was a realization (see e.g. [@Ach94; @Ish; @Tak]) that apart of the resonance $\sigma(600)$ term there is an essential background contribution in this energy region. However there is no evident recipe to divide the $\pi\pi$ amplitude into the resonance and background terms. The simplest and widely used method is “adding in phase shift” of the resonance an background contributions (IA method in terminology of [@Ish; @Tak]): $$\delta^0_0 = \delta^R + \delta^B .
\label{add}$$ The amplitude $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi$ in this case is: $$\begin{aligned}
f^0_0(s)&=&\frac{e^{2i\delta^0_0}-1}{2i\rho}=
\frac{e^{2i\delta^B}-1}{2i\rho} +
e^{2i\delta^B} \cdot \frac{e^{2i\delta^R}-1}{2i\rho}=
\nonumber \\
&=&\frac{e^{2i\delta^B}-1}{2i\rho} + e^{2i\delta^B}\cdot f^{Res}(s) .
\label{IA}\end{aligned}$$
The anzats (\[add\]) may be derived from summation of the loop contributions with some extra conditions [@Ach94]. To obtain the resonance parameters from the experimental data one needs an additional assumption about the form of the background contribution $\delta^B$. The best way for a broad resonance is to determine its mass and the width from the pole position in the complex energy plane. However only the resonance contribution $f^{Res}(s)$ of the entire amplitude (\[IA\]) can be continued into the complex energy plane. Thus it is possibly to study the pole position but not the pole residue.
Other methods to describe the $\delta^0_0$ phase shift, different from (\[add\]), either have the so evident defects, or are much more complicated with many free parameters.
In this paper we suggest a very simple analytical parameterization for $\pi\pi$ amplitude which allows us to continue it to the second Riemann sheet. The amplitude contains (in spirit of the linear $\sigma$-model) two bare objects: the resonance and the background. The main idea is that a joint unitarization of two objects should be described correctly by the field theory methods. As concerning the form of a background contribution at the tree level, it can be modelled by a maximally simple method.
There are different ways to construct such analytical amplitude. We found the suitable one the formalism of the unitary mixing, the obtained amplitude is analytical and unitary automatically. Such construction is rather flexible which allows us to investigate some different physical situations.
Note that from other side the bare pole located at $s <\ 0$ may be considered as some effective cross exchange and its value $m_2^2 \sim -m_{\rho}^2$, obtained from a fit, confirms this interpretation. As compared with standard N/D method our amplitude with two bare objects automatically has a zero, which is necessary to describe the S-wave low energy data.
Formalism of the unitary mixing
===============================
If there exist n bare states with the same quantum numbers then the dressing of their propagators should account also the mutual transitions between them. The process of joint dressing is described in this case by the system of Dyson-Schwinger equations: $$\Pi_{ij}(s) =
\pi_{ij}(s) - \Pi_{ik}(s) J_{kl}(s) \pi_{lj}(s), \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
i,j=1...n .
\label{Dyson}$$
Here $\pi_{ij}$ and $\Pi_{ij}$ are bare and dressed propagators respectively, $J_{ij}$ are the self-energy contributions.
Let us consider mixing of two resonances (n=2) with one open intermediate state. In this case the solutions of (\[Dyson\]) are: $$\Pi_{11}=\frac{D_{2}(s)}{D(s)}, \ \ \
\Pi_{12}=\frac{J_{12}(s)}{D(s)},\ \ \
\Pi_{22}=\frac{D_1(s)}{D(s)}.
\label{Pi}$$ Here $$\begin{aligned}
D(s)&=&D_1 D_2 - (J_{12}(s))^2, \nonumber \\
D_1&=&m_1^2 - s - J_{11}(s),\ \ \ \ \ D_2=m_2^2 - s - J_{22}(s).
\label{}\end{aligned}$$ In the case of scalar resonances interacting with pion pair, the loops are of the form: [^2] $$J_{11}(s)=g_1^2 J(s),\ \ \ J_{22}(s)=g_2^2 J(s),\ \ \
J_{12}(s)=g_1 g_2 J(s).
\label{}$$ $$J(s)=\frac{s-a}{\pi} \int_{4 m_{\pi}^2}^{\infty} \
\frac{ds'}{(s'-a)(s'-s)}\ \rho(s'),\ \ \ \ \ \
\rho(s)=\sqrt{\frac{s-4 m_{\pi}^2}{s}}, \label{J}$$ where $0 < a < 4 m_{\pi}^2$ is the subtraction point, $g_i$ are the coupling constants.
The $\pi\pi$ amplitude: $$f=g_1^2 \Pi_{11}(s) + g_2^2 \Pi_{22}(s) + 2 g_1 g_2 \Pi_{12}(s) =
\frac{N(s)}{D(s)},
\label{amp}$$ where $$\begin{aligned}
D(s)&=&(m_1^2-s)(m_2^2-s) - J(s)N(s), \nonumber \\
N(s)&=&g_1^2(m_2^2 - s) + g_2^2(m_1^2 - s) .\end{aligned}$$
It is evident that (\[amp\]) satisfies the elastic unitary condition $$Im\ f = \rho |f|^2 .$$
The above equations can be applied not only for the case of two resonances but also for the “resonance+background” situation, when one of the bare poles is located at $s < 0$. Just right this situation arises for the S-wave I=0 $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi$ amplitude. One can see from (\[amp1\]) that our amplitude is zero at the point: $$s_0^0 = ( g_1^2 m_2^2 + g_2^2 m_1^2 ) / (g_1^2 + g_2^2),$$ which should be $s_0^0 \sim m_{\pi}^2$ to reproduce the Adler zero. So we have $m_2^2\ <\ 0$ [^3].
Let $m_2^2\ <\ 0$ be the bare zero of function D(s), which stays at the left of real axis after dressing. Then it is convenient to subtract the loop at this point: $$D(s)=(m_1^2-s)(m_2^2-s) - (J(s) - J(m_2^2)) \left [ g_1^2
(m_2^2-s)+ g_2^2 (m_1^2 - s) \right] .
\label{amp1}$$ Below we shall use the amplitude (\[amp\]), (\[amp1\]) for description of the experimental data. Here $m_1^2, g_1^2, m_2^2,
g_2^2$ are free parameters. The background contribution at the tree level may be modelled by the pole or constant. It is sufficient for successful description of the experimental data as it is seen below.
Analysis of $\pi\pi$ data in region of $m_{\pi\pi}<$ 900 MeV
============================================================
In the nearthreshold region we use the new data from $K_{l4}$ decay [@E865], which may be seen at Fig. \[Kl4\] in comparison with 1977 year data [@Ros]. We do not take into account the old data [@Ros] as it has no practical effect on the fit. The measured value in $K_{l4}$ decay is the phase shift difference $\delta_0^0 - \delta_1^1$ thus we need an additional information on the P-wave. We use for this purpose the approximation of solution of the Roy equations from Ref.[@Col01]. Fortunately, the $\delta_1^1$ contribution is only about $1.5^{\circ}$ at the end of the interval due to the P-wave threshold behavior, thus the uncertainty in $\delta_1^1$ is negligible.

Our main purpose is the $\sigma(600)$ resonance thus we restrict ourselves by the energy region $m_{\pi\pi} < 0.9 $ GeV. It allows us to use the one-channel approach and not to take into account the $f_0(980)$ effect. In this region there exist different experiments and different analyses of S-wave phase shifts, see recent reviews [@Ver00; @Ynd].
Below we use only classical partial analyses of Protopopescu et al. [@Pro] from $\pi^+p\to\pi^+\pi^-\Delta^{++}$ reaction and Estabrooks and Martin one of CERN experiment [@Est74] on $\pi^-p\to\pi^+\pi^-n$ (let us call their two solutions for $\delta_0^0$ phase shift as EM I and EM II). Below we consider the mentioned experimental data on the $\delta_0^0$ phase shift and find very similar conclusions. As an example we focus in more details on the the EM II solution.
Fig. \[EM2\] displays the results of joint fitting of $K_{l4}$ data ($m_{\pi\pi} < 0.4 $ GeV) and EM II data ($0.51 < m_{\pi\pi}
< 0.9$ GeV). One can see that our amplitude (\[amp1\]) describes well these data.

We can see that our simple model (\[amp1\]) corresponding to joint unitarization of two bare objects: one pole at $s < 0$ and another pole at $s > 0$ describes successfully the $\pi\pi$ phase shift $\delta_0^0$ in the energy region below 900 MeV. We find two poles in the complex s plane: one close to the origin with $Re\ s
\sim m_{\pi}^2$ and the second one with $Re\ s \sim 0.6\ GeV^2$. However the behavior of the poles when interaction is turned off $g_i^2\to 0$ is rather unexpected (see Fig. \[zeros\]): the close pole traditionally identified with $\sigma(600)$ meson moves to the negative s region. While the second pole $s_2$ (most of previous analyses did not observe it) tends to the real axis above the threshold.
As an alternative we can investigate the case when the background has not bare pole. It corresponds to the joint dressing in the system “$\sigma$-pole + constant”. For this purpose it is sufficient to put the value $m_2^2$ negative and large in our amplitude (\[amp1\]).
In Fig. \[fix\] there are shown the results of data fit with different $m_2^2$ values. One can see that the experimental data prefer rather close left pole $|m_2^2| < 0.6\ GeV^2$.
Fig. \[coup\] illustrates the pole positions in the complex plane at value $m_2^2=-1\ GeV^2$ and their behavior when interaction is turned off. We observe that the behavior of poles has been changed as compared with $m_2^2 > -0.5\ GeV^2$ case.

Discussion
==========
We found that the $\pi\pi$ phase shift $\delta_0^0$ is well described by a simple analytical amplitude (\[amp1\]) in the energy region from the threshold up to 900 MeV. Our amplitude corresponds to a joint dressing of two bare objects: resonance and background contributions. Background can be modelled either by a pole with $Re\ s <0$ or by constant. As a next step one could investigate the more complicated background model: left pole + constant (just as in the linear $\sigma$-model). However since our simple amplitude (\[amp1\]) provides a good description of the experimental data we suppose that inclusion of new degrees of freedom has no meaning.
After the fit of the experimental data we found the presence of two complex poles at the second Riemann sheet: one close to the origin with $Re\ s_1 \sim m_{\pi}^2$ and the second one with $Re\
s_2 \sim 0.5 - 0.6\ GeV^2$. The close pole was seen in most of the previous analyses of $\pi\pi$ scattering (its position is defined mainly by Adler zero) and it was associated with the lightest scalar meson $\sigma(600)$. Note that we approximated the background term at the tree level by some pole, physically it corresponds to the cross-exchange by $\rho$- or $\sigma$-meson. The existing experimental data certainly prefer the pole form of background as compared with constant.
As for behavior of the poles in the limit of $g_i \to 0$ we observe that only the distant pole goes to the real axis at positive s (see Fig. \[zeros\]). This fact holds true for all variants indicated in Table \[summ\]. More detailed investigation shows that such a behavior changes with $m_2^2$ value as it is schematically illustrated in Fig. \[pole\]. The experimental data on $\pi\pi$ scattering with energy below 900 MeV prefer the variant a) while the variant b) with $m_2^2 \sim -1\
GeV^2$ also can not be excluded (see Fig. \[fix\]). For example, the found $\chi^2$ values are $\chi^2/DOF=17.7/22$ for a) and $\chi^2/DOF=22.6/22$ for b) in one of variants of fit.

In view of discussion [@Tor96; @Izg; @Sha; @Bog; @Bev] whether the $\sigma(600)$ the intrinsic state or it is dynamically generated, our results should be interpreted as an indication for a dynamical nature of the $\sigma(600)$. In this case the second pole should be associated with intrinsic $q\bar{q}$ state having regard to above remarks.
We suppose that the most interesting question is the meaning of the second pole $s_2$. It was seen only in a few previous analysis, e.g. in [@Ani00], where it was considered as an artefact since it was located out of the considered energy region. In our analysis with account of the much more exact data from $K_{l4}$ decay, this pole has moved to lower value $Re\ s_2 \sim
0.6\ GeV^2$. As for its imaginary part, it is rather uncertain (see Table 1) and may be abnormally large for resonance state. We suppose that further fate of this pole may be solved by an analysis in the extended energy region.
In any case it is clear that in fact we have the joint complex “$\sigma(600) + Background + f_0(980)$”, which should be studied jointly and by the adequate methods.
Reparameterization of hadron amplitude
======================================
Let us consider the unitary mixing of two bare poles with presence of one intermediate state. We are interested in a number of independent parameters in $\pi\pi\to\pi\pi$ amplitude. Let us write it in a matrix form: $$f=
\left(
\begin{array}{cc}
g_1 ,& g_2
\end{array}
\right)
\left(
\begin{array}{cc}
\Pi_{11},& \Pi_{12} \\
\Pi_{21},& \Pi_{22}
\end{array}
\right)
\left(
\begin{array}{c}
g_1 \\
g_2
\end{array}
\right)
\equiv { g^T \cdot \Pi \cdot g }$$ Here $\Pi$ is the symmetrical matrix of propagator.
Let us start from the most general case when all loops have a subtraction polynomial of a first degree [^6]. $$J_{ij}=g_i g_j (P_{ij}(s)+J(s))=g_i g_j (a_{ij}+b_{ij}s+J(s)),
\label{}$$ where $$J(s)=\frac{s-a}{\pi}\int_{4 m_{\pi}^2}^{\infty}
\frac{ds'}{(s'-a)(s'-s)}\sqrt{\frac{s'-4 m_{\pi}^2}{s'}}. \label{}$$ Here a is subtraction point $0 < a < 4 m_{\pi}^2$, for analytical continuation it is not convenient to subtract integral at zero. There are ten parameters: bare masses $m_1, m_2$, coupling constants $g_1, g_2$ and 6 subtraction parameters in the loops.
We can perform a transformation of propagators and coupling constants, which does not change the amplitude: $$\begin{aligned}
f&=&
g^T\cdot S^{-1}S\cdot \Pi \cdot S^{-1}S\cdot g =
g^{'T} \cdot \Pi^{'} \cdot g^{'}, \nonumber \\
\Pi^{'}&=&S\Pi S^{-1} , \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ g^{'}=S g .
\label{transf}\end{aligned}$$ Let us make few transformations consequently:
1. Firstly by the orthogonal transformation $$S=\left(
\begin{array}{cc}
\cos{\theta} & \sin{\theta} \\
-\sin{\theta} & \cos{\theta}
\end{array}
\right) \nonumber
\label{}$$ we delete the linear on s term in the non-diagonal loop: $b_{12}'=0$.
2. Then by the scale transformation $$\Gamma=\left(
\begin{array}{cc}
\gamma_1 & 0 \\
0 & \gamma_2
\end{array}
\right) \nonumber
\label{}$$ we make the coefficient at s in $\Pi_{11}$, $\Pi_{22}$ by unity. After it any orthogonal transformation can not generate again the linear on s term in the non-diagonal loop.
3. We use one more orthogonal transformation to delete a subtraction constant in the non-diagonal loop.
4. Finally, we can redefine the masses, absorbing the subtraction constants in the diagonal loops.
As a result we came to parametrization (\[Pi\])-(\[J\]) which contains four parameters: masses and coupling constants.
Analytical continuation of loop
===============================
Let us consider the two-sheet analytical function: $$F^{(n)}(s)=i\sqrt{\frac{s-4 m_{\pi}^2}{s}}=i \left| \frac{s-4
m_{\pi}^2}{s} \right|^{1/2}\ \frac{e^{i\ \varphi_1/2}}{e^{i\
\varphi_2/2}}\cdot (-1)^{(n-1)}, \ \ \ \ \ \ n=1,2.$$ The cuts are chosen from $-\infty$ to zero and from $4 m_{\pi}^2$ to $+\infty$.
Let us write down the Coshi theorem on the first Riemann sheet $$F^{(1)}(s)-F^{(1)}(a)=J^{(1)}+L(s).
\label{Coshi}$$ $0<a<4 m_{\pi}^2$, $$J^{(1)}=\frac{s-a}{\pi} \int_{4 m_{\pi}^2}^{\infty}
\frac{ds'}{(s'-a)(s'-s)} \sqrt{\frac{s'-4 m_{\pi}^2}{s'}}, \ \ \ \
L(s)=\frac{s-a}{\pi} \int_{-\infty}^0 \frac{ds'}{(s'-a)(s'-s)}
\sqrt{\frac{4 m_{\pi}^2-s'}{-s'}}.$$ One can see from (\[Coshi\]) that continuation of the loop to the second Riemann sheet is performed as: $$\begin{aligned}
J^{(2)} = -F^{(1)}(s) - F^{(1)}(a) - L(s) = \nonumber \\
= J^{(1)}-2F^{(1)} = \nonumber \\
= -J^{(1)}-2(F(a)+L(s)).\end{aligned}$$ The first expression seems the most convenient in numerical calculations.

[^2]: Note that we ignore the subtraction constants in the loops. As it is shown in Appendix A a subtraction polynomial in the loops can be removed by the redefinition of bare parameters.
[^3]: In spite of $m_2^2\ <\
0$, we keep using this notation to stress the presence of two objects in the amplitude. Note by the way that our amplitude (\[amp\]) coincides except of notations with the amplitude of Ref. [@VDS], obtained from the low-energy bootstrap equations.
[^4]: The values of the bare parameters have rather limited meaning since they correspond to a given method of renormalization. However the character of the pole movement is more meaningful, at least when the loop contributions do not dominate in amplitude.
[^5]: Our amplitude has a property $f(s^*)=f^*(s)$ thus we have a pair of the complex conjugate poles in the complex s plane. For definiteness we say about poles in the $Im\ s > 0$ half-plane.
[^6]: Higher degree of polynomials leads to dominating of loops contributions at large s. It leads to the changing of the problem’s index and to changing of number of poles as compared with the non-interactive case.

Maximo Park
Maximo Park's latest album is called The National Health and frontman Paul Smith has told us, they wanted it to highlight the meaning in their music.
"You've always got to write about the things you're interested in, you can't force things in a certain direction," he explained to Radio X's Clint Boon. "I've written so many things in my notebooks that never see the light of day - for good reason.
"Billy Bragg kind of political songs that are more direct aren't my forte but in our songs there's always been stuff to do with the world around us from our first album through tot the latest one.
"By titling it The National Health it brought attention to that side of the band.".

what does the broken window mean in fences
“Social psychologists and police officers tend to agree” they wrote “that if a window in a building is broken and is left unrepaired all the rest of the windows will soon be broken.” 【Get Price】
The short answer can be given by using a quick comparison. The most recognizable features of a window are the glass (of course) and the framing. The framing material which not only makes up the perimeter frame but the surrounding frames of the operable parts of a window as well is typically made of Wood Aluminum or Vinyl. 【Get Price】

The Little Things
| The Little Things | Gambling | Quotes | Winter Sports |
One of my favorite things about living in a culture different than your own is all the small changes. Now there are a lot of noticeable ones too, such as the fika, godis, and snus. But some time the smallest thing a culture different than yours may do that just makes you smile. Or frown. In any case for me, the little things add up to be bundles of joy when they still make you raise an eyebrow no matter how many times you see it.
Here are a few of the little things I have found in the Swedish culture; some bad, others good. A bit of a disclaimer, my experience in Sweden is limited to mainly Norrland, so these could be only Norrlander little things.
Excuse Me?
Swedes are some of the politest people I know. They are helpful, smile, and you never get that “I’m not very happy but am smiling because otherwise my boss will yell at me” feeling. So the first time a Swede lightly bumped into me to get by without a word, I was a little surprised. The second time I thought it was odd it happened again. And the third time I realized it was normal.
Yes, at least here in Norrland “Excuse me” when you are trying to get by someone is not part of the vocabulary! It is not as though the Swedes are particularly rude. They usually touch you slightly just to let you know to get out of the way or to squeeze by. But never a word is uttered. After living in two countries where “excuse me” is the norm, I find this highly surprising! Sometimes it is a little annoying. Just let me know I’m in your way and I will happily step aside! But in the end, it is one of those little things that makes me smile when I think of it.
Are you having trouble breathing?
Now this is a fun one, and it is specific to Norrland, at least that is what the Swedes in Norrlandtell me, though I have heard it uttered down south as well.
Usually in English when someone is speaking to you, you nod you head in approval or say “uh huh”, “yep”, “sure” or something of the sort. In Sweden one sucks in air. Yep, that is it. There “yep” or when they want to agree with you in general is a sucking noise.
I remember when my friend in Czech Republic (who has a similar obsession with Sweden) told me this. At first I didn’t believe him. But then I was hanging with my Swede and his friends, and sure enough there was sucking in air going on in the conversation! The weirdest thing ever! I try to do it when I speak Swedish but I end up always doing it at the wrong time. Suppose I will get it eventually!

Binding the time, November 13, 1896 Printed and Published by Waites: J Renton, and William T. Kiohman, at their office, Sedalia Street, Kingman County, New Zealand, November 11, 1896. For the benefit of those suffering from biliousness and liver complaints, headaches, indigestion, heartburn, kidney ailments, and females, sick headaches, indigestion, heartburn, kidney ailments, and female ailments, look no further than Dr. Fletcher's Pills, the silent and painless motor that purifies the human system of all accumulations of morbid, foreign, and poisonous diseases. They are mild as a pet lamb, as harmless as honey, as searching as a malleux tooth comb, and as sure as a spring gun. They don't go fooling around, but attend strictly to business and never labor vain. Dr. Fletcher's Pills are prepared on scientific principles. They contain no aloes, calomine, gamboge or any drastic purgative, like most pills now sold to a confiding public, but are made of pure vegetable ingredients which act by gently stimulating the liver and softening the impacted faces, thereby giving relief and comfort unattended, by the annoyance and pain of griping and purging and are confidently recommended to all persons of a sluggish or bilious temperament. They are sold everywhere, or post free, thirteen stamps, from F. M.

Stockholms konserthus (på svensk Konserthuset Stockholm) er en koncertsal, der er opført ved Hötorget i Stockholm, på hjørnet af Kungsgatan og Sveavägen. Koncerthuset blev bygget i årene 1924-26 efter tegninger af arkitekten Ivar Tengbom. Huset har 1.776 siddepladser og regnes som et højdepunkt i klassicismen fra 1920'erne i Sverige, der også kaldes nordisk klassicisme.
Stockholms Koncerthus er åsted for uddelingen af Nobelprisen i hhv. medicin, fysik, kemi og litteratur. Nobels fredspris bliver uddelt på Oslo Rådhus.

Building Developer Ecosystems: A Formula for Success
By Nick Gilbert / Jan 25, 2015
Part 1 Developer Ecosystems Blog
An increasing number of companies are exploring how to encourage software development that complements their core products. As the head of solutions consulting at AppDirect, I’ve helped a number of our partners—including ADP, FICO, and Appcelerator—explore and implement technologies to build and support these developer ecosystems.
Over the years, I’ve seen firsthand how developer ecosystems can deliver impressive results, including faster innovation and higher revenue. However, there are a number of different factors that companies need to consider before attempting to create one. In this series of blog posts, we will explore the three general types of ecosystem plays and important aspects of each, such as integration, sales enablement, and more.
In two follow up series, we will also explore reseller enablement and management, as well as the innovation advantage that companies can get from building developer ecosystems. This includes how data generated by ecosystems can inform technology build or acquisition strategies, for example.
Developer ecosystems are multi-sided and involve numerous participants, which can make them incredibly complex. However, a clear understanding of how these ecosystems work can make it far easier to create one for your own core products.
The Three Types of Developer Ecosystem
Companies are experimenting with various ecosystem types, but most fall into three general categories:
Commodity: In this type, the services you are offering are basic building blocks that many developers will need to build out their own applications. For example, databases, caching services, or error reporting tools. These are “commodities” because you are offering functional tools, with defined shapes and sizes, which developers can take off the shelf and incorporate into their products.
Add-on: Here, you have existing products which could benefit from additional features and functions. Instead of incurring the cost and risk associated with building these capabilities yourself, you want to enable third-party developers to build these add-ons to expand your functional footprint. Generally these add-ons will have a smaller functional footprint than your core product and will provide enhancements.
Sell-with: In this model, you have an existing product which actually sits in an ecosystem of other products that complement your core offering. You want to be able to offer your customers these complementary products so you can offer comprehensive solutions to meet their needs. For example, your CRM system works well with a number of analytics and email marketing tools, and you want to package these as complete, easy-to-buy solutions.
A Detailed Look at Add-On Ecosystems
In this scenario, you have built a product platform and have a gained customer traction. Now, there are many features and functions you want to build in order to support and delight your customers. The challenge is that you only have a fraction of the resources you need to develop this long list of capabilities.
To fill the gap, an increasing number of companies are looking to enable third-party developers to create these features and functions. With this strategy, third-party developers take on the risk but also earn the monetary reward when their products help provide your customers with a more complete product. An ecosystem of add-on solutions can help increase existing customer usage by unlocking new use cases for your products. It can also drive retention, since customers are more likely to continue using your product as its feature set becomes more complete. In addition, this can hinder competitors who are trying to take advantage of weaknesses in your products and win customers away from you. Finally, you will be able to sell more product, because you can offer the market a more competitive feature set.
Success in this strategy usually hinges directly on your ability to attract developers to build add-ons for your product. Three key components will determine your success in attracting developers:
• Market opportunity: How big is total addressable market for your product?
• Ease of participation: How hard is it to build, submit, and begin selling add-ons?
• Ease of sales: How easy is it for developers to sell and promote their products on the platform?
There is a very simple mathematical expression that can define whether you will succeed at garnering developer attention: P + S < M. That is, if it’s easier for a developer to build a product (that is, Participate) and it’s easier to start Selling and be promoted with your core service (the left side), and together, that effort is less than the capture of the total addressable Market that a developer can reasonably expect (on the right side), you will be successful.
In other words, if you are a near monopoly or duopoly, then no matter how hard you make it on developers—not an ideal situation, obviously—they will participate because the monetary incentives for success are so high. However, assuming you aren't Google Play, Apple’s App Store, or the Salesforce AppExchange, you will need to focus on reducing the left side of the equation.
Brokerage—technology that makes it easy to provision, consume, and manage cloud services—plays big part in the left hand side of the equation by making it easy to participate in an ecosystem and making it easy to sell. The next blog post in this series will explore these two factors, ease of participation and ease of sales, in depth. It will also highlight some other elements that you can use to reduce friction, that, while not related to brokerage, are still highly correlated to success.
In the meantime, if you have any questions about developer ecosystems, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

Par cet acte de prompte justice, le Comité a voulu donner à nos braves frères de Dunkerque im témoignage de la satisfaction que lui a fait éprouver la belle conduite qu'ils ont tenue pendant le siège qu'ils ont essuyé; mais je ne vous dissimulerai pas, citoyens ofiiciers municipaux, que nous avons été péniblement affectés d'apprendre que ces mêmes hommes , qui venaient de se couvrir de gloire , sollicitaient une exception pour ne point sortir de chez eux, au moment où tous les autres citoyens de la République s'empressent d'abandonner tout ce qu'ils ont de plus cher pour se réunir aux armées actives.

Voici un passage de cette lettre ^Orig. , Arcli. uat. , AF II lig) : ffVous ne manquerez pas de convenir avec nous qu'il est dur de faire payer à une commune le dommage pour lequel toute action lui était déniée contre ceux qid l'avaient causé, et cette seule raison devrait déterminer le rapport du décret , parce que la justice est blessée. Il y a dans les circon- stances un motif de plus : c'est une marque de gratitude envers les lial)ilants de Dun- kerque pour la bonne conduite ([u'ils ont tenue pendant le siège. Enfin nous regar- dons cette mesure comme politique et pres- sante. Les derniers mouvements de l'ennemi peuvent bien rapprocher l'ennemi de ces murs et l'on s'attache les hommes par les bienfaits, et surtout par les réparations des griels. Ceci est, plus qu'on ne pensera d'abord, une mesure de sùrejté générale. n Le aS septembre 1798, le Comité de salut public avait fait droit aui justes ré- clamations des Dunkerquois et, sur les conclusions de Barère, rapporté le décret du 1 1 mai précédent et ordonné que les 30,000 livres seraient à la charge du Trésor national.

(Analyse, Arch. de la guen-e, corr. gén.) avec tant d'énergie. Que les hommes aussi sages que vous comparent ma conduite passée, qu'ils se rappellent mes combats mullipliés, j'oserai même dire mes succès, et qu'ils apprécient les imputations qui me sont faites. Il y a longtemps qu'il ne serait plus question de la Vendée, si l'on avait voulu suivre mes idées à ce sujet. Elle serait même encore bientôt soumise , si l'on consentait à l'exécution d'un plan qui se trouve dans mon portefeuille déposé en ce moment au Comité de salut public. Ce plan n'est pas d'un traître à coup sûr. Eh ! comment depuis que je suis ici n'a- t-on pas encore examiné mes papiers , parmi lesquels j'ai déjà écrit deux fois aux mem- bres du Comité que ce plan se trouverait. Il serait bien étrange qu'on eût levé les scellés hors ma présence. ttku surplus un général ne peut être garant que de la bonne foi de ses disposi- tions, de son obéissance aux décrets, de sa Cdélilé dans l'exécution des ordres de ses chefs et non pas de l'inertie ou de la lâcheté de ses subordonnés. J'ai vaincu tant que j'ai été obéi , je l'ai été aussitdl que les soldats ont méconnu ma voix et négligé l'exemple que je leur ai donné du courage et de l'inlrépidité. Je désire que ceux qui m'ont succédé soient plus heu- reux, ils ne seront pas plus fidèles. Le rap- port que Barêre a fait hier à la tribune sur la situation de ta Vendée , indique fai- blement à la vérité, mais indique sufli- sament pour les hommes de bonne foi la cause de l'échec que nous avons épromé. Les faits commencent donc à s'éclaircir; n'aurait-il pas été plus juste d'attendre qu'ils fussent tout à fait connus pour frapper les vrais coupables et ne pas s'ex- poser à punir aussi rigoureusement un général innocent et qui a peut-être bien mérité de la patrie. Je représente en ce moment un contraste bien étonnant : je suis emprisonné comme un traître ou un lâche, et dans ce moment même on me traite ici de la fracture d'une côte brisée d'un ricochet de biscajen, circonstance qui me donnerait droit à des récompenses, si j'en ambitionnais d'autres que la gloire d'avoir servi mon pays. Si j'avais suc- combé sous le coup, ma mémoire eût été chère à mes concitoyens, j'aurais obtenu peut-être, ainsi que le général Dampierre, les honneurs de l'apothéose. Quelle diffé- rence de mon sort actuel à celui que la mort m'eût procuré. Au surplus, quelque soit celui qui m'est réservé, je serai tou- jours le digne ami de Merlin (de Douai), et si l'erreur de mes juges était telle que je fusse condannié à perdre la tête, je la [)orlerai sur l'échafaud avec le courage d'un soldat français et, sous la hache fatale, je crierai encore Vive la Ifépubliqne ! <tje suis bien touche de la sensibilité de votre fils. Il n'est pas surprenant qu'il m'accorde quehjues regrets, car, quoique jeune encore, il est en état d'apprécier ma conduite; il a toujours combattu à mes côtés.

[ag sept. 179.3.] Vous n'ignorez ])as quo notre cavalerie n'est guère propoilionnée à celle de l'ennemi ; il nous manque huit cents chevaux d'artillerie , de l'avoine , des maga- sins de souliers et de chemises; le soldat en a cependant grand besoin, de même que d'babits, vestes et culottes. L'armée manque aussi d'officiers généraux et surtout de généraux de division. Les Anglais et les Hollandais , soutenus d'un corps assez considérable d'Autri- chiens, occupent depuis Fui'ues jusqu'au camp de Cysoing inclusivement et sont partout assez en force pour ne pas nous permettre de dégarnir aucun point sans craindre d'y être attaqué. Une force coiisidéiable de troupes autrichiennes se porte sur Maubeuge : il paraît qu'elles veulent attaquer cette place ou celle de Landre- cies et peut-être les deux à la fois; il ne faut cependant pas souffrir que l'ennemi s'avance davantage: il faut, au contraire, le chasser, s'il est possible. Voilà mes idées. 11 faudrait réunir deux armées de soixante mille hommes chaque, dont l'une attaquerait le camp de Cysoing, Orchies, Marchienues , Hasnon, Saint- Amand, et suivrait l'ennemi de manière à s'emparer du camp de Maulde, qu'elle occupe- rait , ainsi que les autres postes dont elle aurait chassé l'ennemi : l'autre marche- rait sur Maubeuge et, dans le cas oîi celte place serait cernée, elle attaquerai! l'ennemi , profiterait de son succès et des cireonstances pour le prendi-e en flanc en passant la Sanibi-e et tâcherait de s'emparer de Bavai. Dans le cas où Maubeuge ne serait pas cernée , elle irait encore passeï' la Sambre au-dessus de Jeumont et attaquer par son flanc le camp de Bettignies , viendrait aussi s'emparer de Bavai. | common_corpus | {'identifier': 'correspondanceg03carnuoft_15', 'collection': 'Multilingual-PD', 'open_type': 'Open Culture', 'license': 'Public Domain', 'date': '1892.0', 'title': 'Correspondance générale, 1792-95.

<h1 class="player">Student of Evard</h1><p><i></i></p>In many places, studying death, darkness, and peril is taboo. Most mortals fear what they cannot explain, including death. Those innovative souls who dare to actively seek out death’s secrets learn that an entirely new realm of shadow awaits their discovery. Many temples and libraries include tomes on the subject of death. If someone had enough motivation and spent plenty of time researching, he or she could soon learn of the famed shadow mage Evard.<br/> Evard, an enigmatic and potent practitioner of shadow magic, is a master of necromancy and nethermancy. His legacy is such that anyone who has spent time researching the Shadowfell has undoubtedly come across his most famous work, Legendry of Phantoms and Ghosts. This 800-page omnibus is one of the finest pieces of writing on the subjects of shadow magic, necromancy, and nethermancy. It covers everything from the creation of apparitions to details on their metaphysical construction and anatomy.<br/> Those who learn of Evard and begin to study his work could become enthralled by all things related to the Shadowfell. Some who study Evard’s works become recluses; others might seek to adventure in an effort to learn more of the Shadowfell and its inhabitants. On a research level, those seeking knowledge on these topics try to understand the breaching of the two planes of existence and learn how both sides interact with each other. As Evard noted, “You can never come to appreciate the fabric and essence of life without first knowing in full detail the beauty of death.”<br/><br/> <b>Student of Evard Starting Feature (1st level)</b>: You gain the essence of death power.<br/> <b>Student of Evard Level 5 Feature (5th level)</b>: You gain a +2 power bonus to skill checks involving necromancy, nethermancy, and the Shadowfell.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea on Tuesday repeated its assertions that the Trump administration is running out of time to salvage nuclear negotiations, saying it’s entirely up to the United States to choose what “Christmas gift” it gets from the North.
The statement, attributed to a senior diplomat, came as North Korea continues to dial up pressure on Washington and Seoul ahead of leader Kim Jong Un’s end-of-year deadline for the U.S. to offer mutually acceptable terms for a deal.
Negotiations have faltered since a February summit between Kim and President Donald Trump broke down after the U.S. rejected North Korean demands for broad sanctions relief in exchange for a partial surrender of its nuclear capabilities.
Working-level talks held in Sweden in October broke down over what the North Koreans described as the Americans’ “old stance and attitude.”
Ri Thae Song, a vice foreign minister handling U.S. affairs, accused Washington of repeating talk offers aimed at buying time without offering real solutions. In comments reported by state media, Ri reiterated earlier North Korean statements that the country has no intention to continue the nuclear diplomacy unless it gets something substantial in return.
“The dialogue touted by the U.S. is, in essence, nothing but a foolish trick hatched to keep the DPRK bound to dialogue and use it in favor of the political situation and election in the U.S.,” Ri said, referring to North Korea by its formal name, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.
“What is left to be done now is the U.S. option and it is entirely up to the U.S. what Christmas gift it will select to get,” Ri said.
Kim has said he would seek a “new path” if the United States persists with sanctions and pressure. The North has tested a series of new solid-fuel missile systems in recent months, which experts say potentially expands its ability to strike targets in South Korea and Japan. It has also threatened to lift a self-imposed moratorium on nuclear and long-range missile tests and resume launches over Japan.
Kim and Trump exchanged crude insults and war threats amid a provocative run in North Korean nuclear and missile tests in 2017, but both leaders have described their personal relationship as good since they began their high-stakes nuclear summitry in 2018.
After the North tested its first intercontinental ballistic missile in July 2017, Kim called the missile a “package of gifts” to the Americans for their Fourth of July holiday. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '7', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9629492163658142}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '179881', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:YMHHIOWQLRAYLKSK55Q7LEJY6LUCCYTM', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:54bd7cee-0f91-4ddd-818f-24f48ff54cca>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 12, 8, 23, 31, 57), 'WARC-IP-Address': '151.101.248.200', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:YCKFCF4DFZA7L64DPOC6WUXIHMBPDSXP', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:d7efa3f8-54ed-44b2-a513-9ca65a887fcf>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://www.beaumontenterprise.com/news/world/article/North-Korea-says-it-s-up-to-US-to-choose-14877330.php', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:7f13101d-f293-4c2c-a0b4-d3ce23d02bc6>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '404', 'url': 'https://www.beaumontenterprise.com/news/world/article/North-Korea-says-it-s-up-to-US-to-choose-14877330.php', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-51\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for December 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-206.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.16 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.1-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.04368901252746582', 'original_id': '030b426e9a6d568b456c6168cc1ddd9b818fa35686bfe34ae057d74714fc8293'} |

Pro-100 printer - magenta cast
My pro-100 is printing with a magenta cast. All my ink cartridges are genuine canon, ink jets not clogged, using canon paper. How do I fix this? It had been printing fine, but then began with the magenta cast. HELP PLEASE. My photography printing has come to a screeching halt due to this problem. Someone? Anyone?

Re: Pro-100 printer - magenta cast
One cause is double profiling. have you changed anything in how you print from when it was woeking properly and now?

Re: Pro-100 printer - magenta cast
Hey - thanks John, I appreciate your time. I've tried changing so many things at this point my head is spinning. My monitor is calibrated and I want photoshop elements to control color. I set the printer color management to none.

Re: Pro-100 printer - magenta cast
How much of a magenta cast? Is this something we'd need to squint to detect? Or is this so obvious that the colors aren't even close? There can be lots of reasons for this, but we would need more details to narrow in on the problem.
You've described a general problem (color not accurate).
I'll offer some general information below which may not be helpful (but at least you'll have an idea of what might be happening).
If you can please share some specifics... which OS & version are you using?
What software applications are you using to print?
Are you using Canon Print Studio Pro package?
Specifically which paper are you using (brand & model)?
You mentioned this is a Canon PRO-100
You mentioned this is running all Genuine Canon OEM inks (no third party ink)
You mentioned nothing is clogged (I assume you did a nozzle check and that came out good).
What quality level are you using for the printer?
When you print, did you select BOTH the correct ICC profile *AND* the correct paper type?
A "color gamut" is the range of all possible colors that a device is capable of producing. Your monitor has a gamut. Your printer has a different gamut. This can be tricky because monitors emit light ... but paper merely reflects light (more specifically the inks "absorb" the colors that you are not supposed to see, and reflect the colors you are supposed to seee. But this means color is accuracy is actually somewhat dependent on the quality of light in the room when you view the print.)
This problem has been around for ages and the "fix" is to apply something called an ICC profile.
The "additive" primary colors are red, green, and blue. But the "subtractive" primary colors (what a printer uses) are cyan, magenta, and yellow. e.g. to make "red" you blend magenta and yellow. Printers typically also add black. They also frequently will use more than one of each type of color (a printer might use "magenta" and "light magenta"). Adding extra color tone cartridges improves the color gamut for the printer.
To complicate things even further... different papers will absorb the ink differently. Some papers have "brighteners" in them which will also cause colors to look different even though it's the same printer and the same ink.
The ICC profile is created using special software and tools (which you don't necessarily need to own).
The idea is that the software will tell the printer to produce certain colors and, in a perfect world, it would. But then a measurement tool is used to test if the color is accurate using a colorometer (sort of in the same way that you can take a color swatch to the paint deparment and the home improvement store and they can mix up a bucket of your color). After the measurement, it determines if each color is accurate and/or if the color hue requires a stronger or weaker saturation of some ink in order to produce a more accurate version of that color. These results are used to build the ICC profile.
But imagine that the home imrrovement store doesn't just ask you what color you want... they ask you if you plan to put it on wood, drywall, plaster, brick, or plastic, because the color will come out different on each material. Painting a wall involves a heavy amount of pigment based ink. Your printer is apply a very light coating of "dye" based ink that absorbs into the paper. This is why the specific paper makes a big difference. So the ICC profile isn't just for the "printer". It's for the "printer / paper" combination (and actually it's for the "printer + ink + paper + quality level" combination). They generally wont ask you about ink because they presume you are using OEM ink with no third party tanks.
The ICC profile tells the printer what colors need extra saturations of ink ... and which colors need less saturation of ink... for that printer/ink/paper combination (and if any of those three things changes, you need a different profile.)
The reason you might not need to own calibration software and hardware is because most paper vendors already own these tools and they've pre-built the profiles for you. E.g. for your "Canon PRO-100" using Canon OEM ink, you can not only get an ICC profile using Canon paper, you can download ICC profiles for most third party papers as well. But this means you will need to have downloaded and installed the ICC profiles for all the different paper types you use.
One thing that can go wrong is that you've got photo printing software which can apply the ICC profile. BUT... it doesn't actually go straight to the printer. It goes to the operating system's printer queue. That print-queue ALSO has the opportunity to apply the ICC profile. You must make sure that the correct ICC profile is applied only ONCE. Applying it once fixes problems... applying it twice over-corrects and you are back to a inaccurate result.
There is also something called a "rendering intent". Depending on the software, you *might* run into words like "perceptual" and "relative" color "intent". Remember I mentioned that the printer cannot produce every color that your monitor can produce. The question is... what do you want the printer to do when it is expected to print a color it can't accurately produce (and it knows it is an out-of-gamut color)? The "intent" is the setting that lets you decide how you want the printer to handle this.
You have a choice... print all colors that CAN be accurately produced in their accurate color and nudge the colors that CANNOT be accurately produced to the nearest color that can be printed. This choice is called "relative" intent.
The problem with "relative" is that you might have two adjacent and similar colors that need to be different but are very close to each other... one that the printer can produce, and the other cannot be produced. If you use "relative" those colors might print the same and you lose the ability to tell the difference. To solve this, the print could nudge the color it CANNOT produce to the nearest color it CAN produce. But having identified that new color... find any other colors that would match ... and nudge them as well so that, while not technically accurate... at least your eye can see the difference. This is called "perceptual" intent.
Most of the time, the print output you will like better will be the "perceptual" version.
1) Make sure you install and select the correct ICC profile for your specific printer / ink / paper combination. But what I didn't mention is that printers can also have "quality" settings (low, medium, high, etc.) and this can also change the ICC profile. My printer has some profiles that indicate quality "1/2" (quality level 1 or 2), and a different profile for quality "3" (the best quality).
2) Make sure you select that correct ICC profile ONLY ONCE (either in the software you use ... or in the print queue. But not both places or you over-correct and get bad results.)
3) If the software asks you which rendering intent to use... know the difference between the two most common choices (perceptual vs. relative). You probably want "perceptual". "relative" is mostly used for testing printer accuracy or for things such as product photography where absolute color accuracy is more important.
What if that doesn't work?
There are online services that will produce a custom ICC profile just for you. Typically they have you download their own test print and you print a page following their instructions. You mail the physical prints back to them. They scan your prints and build a custom profile ... which you download. They prices vary. If you just have one or two favorites papers you always use, this might be the more cost effective way to get a custom profile.
If you have lots of different papers... the cost of getting a custom profile for everything via an online service will add up and it'll be cheaper to buy your own calibration device.
I've used the X-Rite ColorMunki Photo (now called X-Rite i1 Studio). It's just shy of $500. These days I have an X-Rite i1 Photo Pro 2 (more than $1000). Not cheap. Anyway these devices will let you build your own custom printer profiles -- you do't rely on the ICC profiles from the vendors and you can even build profiles that include non-OEM inks.
It is usually not necessary to buy your own color calibration tools if you are printing for yourself, your friends, etc. I find my own printer (a PRO-10) actually does "pretty good" if I disable all profiles and let the printer auto-manage it's own color (and in some cases turning on a profile gives worse results). If you were operating a business, then you'd probably be more obligated to provide accurate colors and that's where these tools pay off.

Duck Stuff: Morning Mud
After the first day of the first College Football Playoff, the Buckeyes and Ducks were better than everybody else.The best news: We're finally getting to settle the debate on the field. Ten days from now, we'll know which team is the best.
■ Ted Miller nails it, as he usually does, when talking about perceptions.
"Did a team ever dictate a big game more than the Ducks did to the Seminoles, particularly in the second half, when FSU was supposed to take control? While Winston pulled out the "we beat ourselves" line afterward, he apparently failed to pay enough attention to Ducks' game film. Rendering teams into bloody hamburger during a sudden transformative frenzy is what Oregon does. The Ducks were not gifted those five turnovers from the Seminoles. They took them." | mini_pile | {'original_id': '7e96a436022cc0e56bf9a31f7cbf652a37e154f6b7bf1db9d5f11b7f59d7b6c4'} |
Class Scheduling Info for Next Year’s Seniors
The following is a transcript of information contained in Mrs. Davidson’s informational video. The registration Google Form she mentions is linked below…
1. This video is ONLY for current 11th graders, those who will be seniors at RCHS next year. There will be future instructions for other grade levels. We will take each grade level at a time. In order to minimize confusion, please do not fill out scheduling information if you are not an upcoming 12th grader.
1. Before you begin to schedule for your senior year, you need to know that our class schedule will be set up differently next year. We will be on what is called a “modified block.” This means that 1st and 2nd classes will be periods. They will be shorter in length, and they will last ALL YEAR. 3rd, 4th, and 5th will be blocks, similar to what you are used to, and those classes will last until CHRISTMAS, and then you will get 3 new classes for 3rd, 4th, and 5th. You will still have 8 classes in total.
1. We are giving you a link here to a Google Form. This Google Form is very important. The information you submit will be used in order to create your schedule. Let me go over what is on the Google Form.
1. First, you will see a list of Course Offerings. This has course names and numbers you will need to use later when filling out your form.
2. Next, you will see the master schedule. This is VERY important, because it tells you when each class is offered during the day. You will be planning out what period/block you want each class. It is crucial that you do not put down two classes from the same column on a this sheet, because that means they are taught at the same time. Again, you will choose 8 classes in total. 2 periods (1st and 2nd) and 6 blocks (3 first semester, 3 second semester).
3. Third is the registration sheet. This is the paper that we normally give you to fill out and bring back to us. You are still welcome to print or write this out on your own paper so that you plan your schedule BEFORE filling out the form and submitting it.
4. Lastly, will be the actual survey/form that you submit to us electronically. Important things to remember: Use your full name please, so we know who you are; provide at least TWO phone numbers so that we can reach you if we have questions or a class fills up, choose 1 class per time frame, list alternates (again, in case something fills up).
5. As a senior, please don’t forget that you MUST take both a math and an English course to fulfill graduation requirements.
6. If you are choosing vocational courses, they are labeled at the bottom of the second page on the “master schedule.” If you are unsure of what course to take to finish your pathway, or if you believe you may be participating in a co-op next year, please reach out to Mrs. Roy at the LCATC. We work very closely with her when creating student schedules.

\section{Fort Space is Zero Dimensional}
Tags: Fort Space, Zero Dimensional Spaces, Fort Spaces
\begin{theorem}
Let $T = \struct {S, \tau_p}$ be a Fort space on an infinite set $S$.
Then $T$ is a zero dimensional space.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Let $q \in S$ such that $q \ne p$.
Then from Clopen Points in Fort Space, $\set q$ is clopen.
So $\forall q \in S, q \ne p: \set {\set q}$ is a local basis for $q$.
If we take the open neighborhoods of $p$ we get a local basis $\UU_p$ with the following property:
:Since $p \in U \in \UU_p$, its complement does not contain $p$ and so it is open.
This implies that $U$ is also closed.
The union of the local basis forms a basis for the topology.
This basis is formed with clopen sets.
So, by definition, $T$ is a zero dimensional space.
{{qed}}
\end{proof}

Reference sharing mechanism for watermark self-embedding.
This paper proposes two novel self-embedding watermarking schemes based upon a reference sharing mechanism, in which the watermark to be embedded is a reference derived from the original principal content in different regions and shared by these regions for content restoration. After identifying tampered blocks, both the reference data and the original content in the reserved area are used to recover the principal content in the tampered area. By using the first scheme, the original data in five most significant bit layers of a cover image can be recovered and the original watermarked image can also be retrieved when the content replacement is not too extensive. In the second scheme, the host content is decomposed into three levels, and the reference sharing methods with different restoration capabilities are employed to protect the data at different levels. Therefore, the lower the tampering rate, the more levels of content data are recovered, and the better the quality of restored results. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '0aaa49f12b6e10a6cfa7077be450d2398c7e060f5ede59a24104d5913be44e75'} |
IT Brief NZ - Pros and cons of moving your telephony to the cloud
Warning: This story was published more than a year ago.
Pros and cons of moving your telephony to the cloud
Taking your telephony to the cloud has many benefits. Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise's Chris Downes discusses some of the pros and cons.
So, you’re wondering whether there are benefits in taking your company’s telephony to the cloud.
It’s a common query, but the first step before making such a move is to ask yourself three questions:
• How do your employees communicate with customers, suppliers and each other?
• How do your employees work? Are they bound to one desk or do they sometimes work from other areas of the business, home or out in the field?
• What are your current communication costs, including mobile, conferencing services, landlines, LAN and wireless?
The way people work and communicate has changed enormously over the past few years and will continue to change in the foreseeable future. While many people know this, some are only beginning to understand that the change is here - and it’s permanent.
Once you’ve answered those questions honestly and thoroughly, you can start researching the value of cloud-based UC over on-premise UC.
Hosted vs on-premise
You’ll find having your system hosted means lower capex because you have no hardware costs except for the phones, lower installation costs and far less infrastructure, as the hosted infrastructure resides with the service provider.
Fees are generally at a fixed rate per month per user. Maintenance and updates are also generally provided by the cloud provider, ensuring flexibility and an always up-to-date solution.
With disaster recovery, being cloud-based makes you reliant on your service provider so ensure that reliable redundancy is included in the offer as you cannot get immediate access to the equipment as you would with an on premise system.
There are many positive aspects to cloud telephony, but there are also a few things you need to be aware of.
Every vendor will talk about the flexibility of their systems; most, however, do not provide truly customised services. Your business may well have unique requirements that will benefit from a service that can be tailored to those specific needs, something which is inherent to cloud solutions.
Having a customisable service also requires you to be able to accommodate future growth. No doubt you want and expect your business to prosper, so make sure you find a solution that can grow with you, that suits your business now and in the future. Ask yourself this: is the system really agile or is it something that will restrict me in the years to come?
Discovering the answer to the first question - about how people communicate with each other - can lead to customising on a more personal level. Organisations have now got the capacity to solve specific pain-point problems by using cloud-based applications on individual mobile devices, including unified access to desk phone and mobile services.
These applications, for such normal daily tasks as audio conferencing, video and file sharing, can now run on any device ensuring the people who need them have got them no matter where they are. Enabled by cloud, this allows businesses to work more effectively and collaborate seamlessly with field staff on the road.
Telephony is changing from yesterday’s siloed, hardware-laden and rigid infrastructure component and user applications. It is now a customised and continuously evolving solution driven by integration, intelligent software, flexibility - and the cloud.
Chris Downes is ANZ channel sales director for Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, a leader in networking and communications technology, products and services.

(Redirected from Hydroponic)
Hydroponics is the growing of plants without soil. A variety of techniques exist.
Researchers of plant metabolism have discovered that plants absorb nutrients as simple ions in water. In natural conditions, soil acts as a nutrient reservoir but the soil itself is not essential to plant growth. When the nutrients in the soil dissolve in water, plant roots are able to absorb them. When the required nutrients are introduced into a plant's water supply artificially, soil is no longer required for the plant to thrive. Almost any plant will grow with hydroponics, but some will do better than others. It is also very easy to do; the activity is often undertaken by very young children with such plants as watercress.
Hydroponics is useful to us in two main ways. First, it provides a more controlled environment for plant growth than soil thereby removing many unknowns from experiments. Second, many plant species produce more in less time and sometimes of higher quality, which under certain economic and environmental conditions, makes hydroponics growing more profitable to the farmer. With hydroponics there are no soil-borne diseases, weeds to pull, or soil to till, and plants can be placed very close to one another. This allows a large amount of food to be produced in a small amount of space. Hydroponics is also very water-efficient as it uses containers or closed loop systems that recirculate the water, and therefore requires only a small fraction of the water used in traditional farming.
These qualities combine to make hydroponics useful wherever people wish to grow plants in a non-traditional manner. Science fiction writers have long speculated that hydroponics would allow space stations or spaceships to grow their own food (see e.g. generation ships). The same qualities make hydroponics ideal for those who wish to grow plants with maximum control over conditions, maximum density, and low risk of detection; as a result, many marijuana growers use hydroponics, to escape notice by the police and to produce the finest quality product.
The first researcher of hydroponics was John Woodward of England, who, in 1699, grew plants in water to which he had added various soils. This demonstrated that the earth contained various substances which the plants needed besides water. In the mid-19th century, the German plant physiologists Sachs and Knop grew plants in simple solutions of inorganic salts.
In 1929, Professor Gericke of the University of California, Davis demonstrated that plants could be grown soil-free all the way to maturity, growing tomato plants in water to a quite remarkable size. By analogy with the ancient Greek term for agriculture, geoponics, the science of cultivating the earth, Gericke coined the name hydroponics for the culture of plants in water (from the Greek hydros, water, and ponos, labour).
There are a variety of techniques employed in hydroponics. Some, while dispensing with soil, use relatively inert material as a physical support for the plant roots. Other techniques dispense altogether with any growing medium, delivering nutrient solution directly to the roots by a variety of methods.
Passive hydroponics
The simplest method: the plant is planted in a container (pot or bag) of growing medium, and the container stands in a tray of nutrient solution. The medium generally has large air spaces, allowing ample oxygen to the roots, while capillary action delivers water and nutrients to the roots. A variety of materials can be used for the medium: vermiculite, perlite, clay granules, rockwool, gravel. Some newer media that are becoming popular are coir fibre, and cocoa bean shells. This needs the least maintenance of all hydroponic methods, requiring only topup and occasional replacement of the nutrient solution.This keeps the medium regularly flushed with nutrient and air. It is important in passive hydroponics to wash out system from time to time to remove salt build up. This may be checked with a PPM meter, a good average reading would be about 1500 PPM. Lettuce is happy with about 800 PPM and tomatoes to 3000 PPM but both will grow reasonably well on 1500 PPM. It is important to keep the pH reading at about 6.3 to enable nutrient uptake. Data are available for the optimum settings for most plants. This is commonly employed for large display plants in public buildings: in Europe a system using small clay granules is marketed for growing houseplants.
Example Image from HydroponicsOnline.com (http://www.hydroponicsonline.com/images/Method4.jpg)
Flood and Drain (or Ebb and Flow)
In its simplest form, there is a tray above a reservoir of nutrient solution. The tray is either filled with growing medium (clay granules being the most common) and planted directly, or pots of medium stand in the tray. At regular intervals, a simple timer causes a pump to fill the upper tray with nutrient, after which the nutrient drains back down into the reservoir. This keeps the medium regularly flushed with nutrient and air.
Example Image from HydroponicsOnline.com (http://www.hydroponicsonline.com/images/Method1.jpg)
Deep Water Culture Example(DWC)
Deep Water Culture is a hydroponic method of growing plants in which the roots are suspended above, and allowed to drop down into an aerated nutrient solution. With a properly aerated solution the roots can be continualy submerged without problems. The solution is usually aerated by means of an aquarium air pump. A typical application woud involve the plant being suspended from a net pot in the lid of a bucket with air lines and airstones aerating the nutrient solution in the bucket below.
Drip feeding
Similar to Flood and Drain in its physical setup, except the pump delivers a continuous trickle of nutrients, water, and oxygen onto the medium. The emitters are commonly set to run 5 to 10 minutes every hour.
Example Image from HydroponicsOnline.com (http://www.hydroponicsonline.com/images/Method2.jpg)
Plants roots are suspended in a tank of nutrient solution which is kept aerated by the use of standard aquarium pumps and air stones, which deliver oxygen to the roots and to prevent algae growth.
Raft cultivation
A variant of DWC sometimes used for lettuces: sheets of expanded polystyrene have holes drilled through them, and young plants are placed in the holes with the roots hanging down. The sheet then floats in a shallow tank of nutrient solution.
Nutrient Film Technique (NFT)
In this method, the plants grow through light-proof plastic films placed over shallow, gently sloping channels. A steady flow of nutrients is maintained along the channel, and the roots grow into dense mats, with a thin film of nutrient passing over them (hence the name of the technique). A downside of the technique is that it has very little buffering against interruptions in the flow e.g. power outages, but overall, it is probably one of the more productive techniques.
Example Image from HydroponicsOnline.com (http://www.hydroponicsonline.com/images/Method3.jpg)
A class of hydroponics where the roots of a plant are suspended in a mist or fog of nutrient rich solution. Traditional aeroponic techniques use pumps and misters more commonly found in micro-irrigation systems, whereas state-of-the-art techniques employ ultrasonic nubilizers which render the nutrient solution into an extremely fine fog.
One of the most obvious decisions a hydroponicist has to make is which medium they should use. Different media are appropriate for different growing techniques.
Clay Pebbles
Also known as 'hydroton', these small round baked spheres of clay are inert and are extremely suitable for any hydroponic system where all the nutrients are carefully controlled in the water. Clay pebbles can be reused, provided they are cleaned thoroughly in-between crops. Baked clay pebbles are highly porous, yet irregularly shaped to create an ideal balance of oxygen and nutrient solution.
Rockwool gets its name from its physical properties: it is, in fact, pieces of basalt rock that have been spun out to form a lightweight, porous, wooly substrate. This 'wool' is then compressed into blocks. Before use, rockwool must be soaked in pH 5-6 water with a cF of 12 (cF stands for 'conductivity factor', which is, put simply, the amount of nutrient in the water. If you do not have a cF meter, just follow the formula on the back of the packet and you will be fine) for a few minutes. The rockwool should then be removed and squeezed slightly to remove approximately 10 per cent of its water. Rockwool can be bought in 'cuttings cubes', cubes that are good for inserting cuttings into, 'transplantation cubes', which are for inserting cuttings cubes into and then placing into a larger system, as large slabs, or as very small 1cm cubes, which are used in place of clay pebbles or some other medium. These tiny cubes are known as 'Cellmax', but are still rockwool. Note that fibres of rockwool can break off and lodge in a user's lungs, causing irritation, so care must be taken.
Rockwool exhibits a behavior called 'conditioning' in which it gradually absorbs phosphorus. New rockwool usually has a pH around 7.4 - 7.6. The absorbed phosphorus is available to plants, but is removed from the nutrient solution. Over time as the phosphorus builds up, the rockwool becomes 'conditioned' and absorbs progressively smaller quantities of phosphorus until it becomes saturated. This process is beneficial to flowering plants because the rockwool serves as a storage for the large quantities of phosphorus needed during flowering. Providing large amounts in the nutrient solution could cause nutrient burn and excessively low pH, which in turn would lock out other nutrients.
Coco Coir
Coco is a compressed medium created from the husks of coconuts. These are pH balanced, so need only to be soaked in water before use. Some coco blocks are 'unbuffered', and so need to be soaked in buffering solution. Coco coir comes also in bags and in slabs.
Perlite is a volcanic rock that has been superheated into, very lightweight, expanded glass pebbles. It is used loose or in plastic sleeves immersed in the water. It is also used in potting soil mixes to decrease soil density.
Due to rising awareness of chemicals and other contaminants in the food supply, people are looking for more wholesome and safer alternatives. Fortunately, hydroponics is the exact fit for the consumer’s new requirements.
Some commercial installations use no pesticides or herbicides, preferring Integrated Pest Management Techniques. There is often a price premium willingly paid by consumers for produce which is labeled "Organic". This means that lawyers and lobbyists are paid to establish rules and laws determining exactly who can charge consumers more and which produce can be legally sold with the label "Organic". Some States in the USA require soil as an "sine qua non" to obtain Organic Certification. There are also overlapping and somewhat contradictory rules established by the Federal Government. So some food grown with hydroponics can be certified organic. In fact, they are the cleanest plants possible because there is no environment variable and the dirt in the food supply is extremely limited. Hydroponics also saves an incredible amount of water; It uses as little as 1/20 the amount as a regular farm to produce the same amount of food. The water table can be impacted by the water use and run-off of chemicals from farms, but hydroponics may minimize impact as well as having the advantage that water use and water returns are easier to measure. This can save the farmer money by allowing reduced water use and the ability to measure consequences to the land around a farm. This can help keep government lawyers from running your farm.
The environment in a hydroponics greenhouse is tightly controlled for maximum efficiency and this new mindset is called Soil-less/Controlled Environment Agriculture (S/CEA). With this growers can make ultra-premium foods anywhere in the world, regardless of temperature and growing seasons. Growers monitor the temperature, humidity, and pH level constantly. In an era of farm globalization where each successive year thousands of farms are closed down worldwide due to excess capacity, only the most efficient farms will be passed down to generations in the 22nd century.
Problems with Hydroponics
Although hydroponics is useful and an expanding area of agriculture, it is not without problems. On large scale commercial operations computers can be used to help control the different factors, making hydroponics more complex and thus more expensive. However, the added benefit of computer controlled growing environments is that manual intervention is kept to a minimum. There are experimental computer systems which allow every aspect of the growing environment to be monitored remotely, via the internet.
Luckily, hydroponics is not nearly as difficult when done on a small scale. Hydroponic systems may be as complicated or a simple as the gardener's abilities and needs dictate. Often more advanced systems will produce more abundant or higher quality crops. However even the simplest hydroponic system can yield incredible results when compared to their soil counterparts.
Present and future
With pest problems reduced, and nutrients constantly fed to the roots, productivity in hydroponics is high, plant growth being limited by the low levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, or limited light. To increase yield further, some sealed greenhouses inject carbon dioxide into their environment to help growth (Co2 enrichment), or add lights to lengthen the day, control vegetative growth etc.
Hydroponics can be used to grow plants anywhere, from Antarctica (where salad vegetables are grown in the 6 month nights) to a coal mine. When vegetables are grown in future space missions, it is likely to be by hydroponics methods. The fact that plants can be grown almost anywhere, with no natural light by using hydroponics and lighting has not escaped the notice of clandestine marijuana growers, and a large amount of hydroponics equipment appears to be in use for this purpose. In the UK, theft of high intensity grow lamps from commercial vegetable growers is a chronic problem. However, this trend is being reduced by the increaced availability of hydro / organic Grow stores which can supply the otherwise unavailable specialist equipment. Wide availability and low cost of equipment in the U.S. makes theft from greenhouses a rare event. With the passage of medical marijuana laws and decriminalization of marijuana cultivation and use in several US states, the indoor cultivation of marijuana is becoming much more mainstream.

Famille - Le ministère publie deux nouveaux guides sur la protection de l'enfance
En mai 2007, le ministère de la santé et des solidarités mettait en ligne cinq guides pratiques destinés à faciliter la mise en oeuvre de la loi du 5 mars 2007 réformant la protection de l'enfance (voir notre article ci-contre). Ces guides à la vocation pratique affirmée étaient consacrés respectivement à la prévention en faveur de l'enfant et de l'adolescent, à la cellule départementale de recueil, de traitement et d'évaluation, aux interventions à domicile pour la protection de l'enfant, à l'accueil du mineur et du jeune majeur et, enfin, à l'observatoire départemental de la protection de l'enfance. Aujourd'hui, le ministère publie deux nouveaux documents - également disponibles sur internet - sur le thème général de la protection de l'enfance. Le premier s'inscrit très directement dans le prolongement des cinq guides déjà parus. Il s'agit en l'occurrence d'un "livret d'information pour les acteurs de la protection de l'enfance", consacré à "La qualité et son évaluation : éléments de réflexion". S'appuyant notamment sur les orientations de la loi du 2 janvier 2002 rénovant l'action sociale et médico-sociale (qui impose aux établissements et services une évaluation interne tous les 5 ans et une évaluation externe tous les 7 ans), ce document propose un ensemble de fiches méthodologiques portant sur les différents aspects de l'évaluation dans le champ de la protection de l'enfance : évaluation des situations individuelles, évaluation du fonctionnement des structures et évaluation du dispositif de prise en charge. Le second document se situe dans une approche un peu différente. Il est consacré aux "Préconisations pour la prise en charge des enfants exposés aux violences conjugales". Fruit d'un partenariat entre le Service des droits des femmes et de l'égalité (SDFE) et l'Observatoire national de l'enfance en danger (Oned), il s'adresse à la fois aux acteurs institutionnels de la protection de l'enfance - dont les départements - et aux professionnels de l'action sociale. Il formule plusieurs recommandations portant à la fois sur le repérage et l'alerte face à de telles situations (depuis la prévention précoce jusqu'aux recommandations aux professionnels accompagnant les victimes), sur "l'évaluation pluridisciplinaire de l'impact des violences pour construire une réponse adaptée à l'enfant et à sa famille" et sur la sensibilisation, la formation et la mise en réseau de l'ensemble des intervenants concernés par la question des violences conjugales.

Cleveland Browns coach Mike Pettine confirmed that the Browns were offered the chance to be on the show, but turned HBO down. While the NFL can foist the show upon any team at any time, the Browns were exempt because Pettine is in his first year at the helm.
“It was for the same reason we didn't feel super comfortable having a camera in the draft room,” he said. “Let's get through the first time, let's get through the first year.”
Perhaps fortuitously, the Browns declined before they had even drafted Johnny Manziel, dodging a potentially lethal distraction that would have hit the team before training camp even started.
While Pettine isn’t sure if they have been approached again, don’t expect their answer to change even if HBO gives it another shot. The prospect of even more attention on Manziel cannot be particularly appealing to a rebuilding team. Johnny Football hasn’t been able to go anywhere this offseason without a sea of cameras following him, and continuing that into the actual football season would have been a huge distraction.
As for the future, Pettine said that “There are positives and negatives to doing it. It's not something I would say we'd never do, partly because the league can make us do it.”
In other words, he knows that Roger Goodell is going to make them do it next year, so he’s just mentally preparing.

Q:
Format string "yyyyMMdd" to "dd/MM/yyyy" from List c# .Net 4
I have a string that I get from a source that represents a date and comes like this "19941201" (Year+Month+Day).
I need it to be "01/12/1994" or even "01-12-1994".
I am retrieving this data from a List using linq.
Is there a 'neat' way to do this? I use c# and .Net4.0
!
A:
DateTime datetime = DateTime.ParseExact(date, "yyyyMMdd", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
Then you can simply do datetime.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy");

Eyes On The Street: Mayor Newsom Shames Earth Day
Newsom_vehicle_small.jpgThanks to Livable City Executive Director Tom Radulovich for this photo from earlier today
Mayor Gavin Newsom sure knows how to milk a press conference when it suits his needs and beefs up his image. My favorite has been all the press attention he got for announcing a proposal for the one of the world's smallest public-use bicycle share programs (right up there with Pinerolo, Italy, and Porsgrunn, Norway). Fifty bicycles to the tune of $1 million. Subsequent news reports about bike share programs in Seattle and Boston mentioned San Francisco in the same breath as Paris and Barcelona, despite the fact that San Francisco's proposal is laughable and arguably could doom a real public-use bike program from getting traction.
That said, I'm mystified by the above photo, snapped this morning before Mayor Newsom's Earth Day breakfast.
C'mon, Gav, that's not just stupid, it's callous. Just before introducing Urban EcoMap, which is touted as an "internet-based tool that gives San Franciscans the ability to see the collective results of their individual climate change actions, while also motivating people to make responsible environmental choices," you drive to work in your SUV?
Of all the days to ditch the gas guzzler and ride "Muni incognito" or use the bicycle, wouldn't today be the day?

Pennsylvania teen invites boy with "broken heart" to homecoming dance
Noah Weber has had 4 open heart surgeries so far, and his new friend Ariel has given him hope, inviting Noah to her homecoming dance this year. 2 / 2
Swissville, PA (CNN) - A Pennsylvania boy born with a "broken heart" is learning love can heal wounds.
Noah Weber will bounce from one thing to the next.
Noah Weber: “We used to have a pool in the backyard. Huge.”
An active 8-year-old boy he doesn't like to sit still
Noah Weber: “It's a baby bearded dragon. She's nice. She's a girl.”
For as energetic as he is, you wouldn't know he was born with a rare congenital heart defect. At birth, doctors told his parents to prepare to say goodbye. Noah has since had four open heart surgeries, all before his eighth birthday.
That's where "she" comes in...
Reporter: “Is she your girlfriend?”
Noah Weber: “Yeah, she's 16.”
“She” is a high school student eight years his senior. Ariel Nelson goes to Woodland Hills. She takes dance lessons with Noah’s older sister.That's how she came to meet Noah, who fell in love at first sight. For the last year they've been best friends. She was his only request after major heart surgery in November.
Noah Weber: “Your hair was in my face.”
Noah takes his role as boyfriend seriously.
Ariel Nelson – Noah’s “Girlfriend”: “He got me this.”
Noah Weber: “A real one for like 10 or 50 dollars I don't know.”
He even surprised Ariel during her dance recital.
Ariel Nelson: “At the end I was waiting for the curtains to close and it was just like is there a malfunction?”
This wasn't a malfunction. This was Noah’s doing. In a few months Ariel is hoping her high school will let her take Noah to the homecoming dance
Ariel Nelson: “Everyone should deserve to get a chance to go to their homecoming and dress up for school. We don't know what his conditions going to be in the future so we said, ‘Hey I'm gonna be a junior this year, why not take him?’”
Virginia Weber – Noah’s Mom: “He's had a lot of mental health issues through the years too where he was very aggressive and angry and she has brought out a very special, loving little boy that was inside of him. She's so wonderful.”
Ariel Nelson: “This is how you gotta dance there.”
For a kid who doesn't like to dance, with her, Noah wouldn't miss a beat. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9819784164428712}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '74653', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:OYANHG56SJQWALQWZ2MC3KFPWY3O56XW', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:a6e4fc49-6261-4bd0-94f4-06656ca3e54c>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 9, 19, 16, 54, 37), 'WARC-IP-Address': '192.229.163.112', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:KLSNDPPKS5QW2GPZKM3P2HYWIPWXVGT5', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:0d15c631-cdcc-447d-a447-eee949ee25f8>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.wday.com/feature/arts-entertainment/3323387-pennsylvania-teen-invites-boy-broken-heart-homecoming-dance', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:fe0681bd-b999-4bf4-b3bb-666fd030a610>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '406', 'url': 'http://www.wday.com/feature/arts-entertainment/3323387-pennsylvania-teen-invites-boy-broken-heart-homecoming-dance', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-79-213-170.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-39\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for September 2017\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.02789139747619629', 'original_id': 'c7573208d31b5b91bf375d2ab82574d0629addb8dadf14437e8c3f62f22093d0'} |

I've always been one to go above and beyond. It just seems that with this field and in this economy, the bare minimum won't get you anywhere. I plan to do anything I can to set me apart from the crowd. If I'm unemployed for a few months after graduation that really won't bother me.. I've been a broke college student for a LONG time.. At least I'll have a PCT job to keep me afloat while I wait.

To Cape Cod: Oh! I didn't even realize I had done that! I guess it's a habit from typing out emails to professors. I can't find a way to edit it though. I see you are an AllNusrses Guide. Can you?

I am a new graduate and was able to find a job in an area hospital with not problem, I am not sure where you live but I live in Virginia and I actually had several job offers and was able to pick which unit and hospital was a better fit for me. I would ignore the negative people, yes I have heard that it takes some people longer than others to find jobs and those are primarily the people that never worked in a hopsital before the graudated nursing school. Your plan to get a PCT job in the hospital is a great idea and I am willing to bet once you get started and acquainted with the unit that hires you on, you will see a different side of nursing besides OB. Working in nursing homes is for LPNs, noone expects you to graduate professional nursing school with a BSN just to pass medications on a continuous med pass 8 hours a day, five days a week, so once again ignore the negative and follow your goals.

Just because you're a CNA doesn't mean you have to work in a nursing home! You can work in hospitals also. When you look at job boards, sometimes employers use all sorts of titles for CNA... patient care tech, care ambassador, patient assistant. There a million different ways to say "CNA" lol. You also don't necessarily have to take a CNA course. A lot of places will hire you once you've finished your first semester in nursing school. It just depends on your location. Also, don't get down. Don't listen to the "it's impossible to get a hospital job" stuff. Just set your sites high and you'll be fine. I work as a CNA in a hospital and on my floor alone, 3 CNAs just got promoted as graduate nurses (basically just means they've finished nursing school, but haven't taken their NCLEX yet.) They do the same job as a CNA, just with better pay. They're also guaranteed a nursing position on our floor once they pass the NCLEX. I think the key is get a job in a hospital if at all possible.... if not, then LTC will help also. I know it's scary. I was terrified of it during my CNA program and was prepared to just struggle through and never think about LTC again. However, I really enjoyed it! Once you learn the why behind why they act the way they do, it's much easier. Good luck to you!

To cryss30: thanks for the positivity. It definitely helps.
To kenyacka: also thanks for the positivity. And perhaps you are right. Once i know the reasonings behind ttheir actions i'll probably feel much different.

Dear Everyone,
Just wanted to send you this uplifting note. If you are having a bad day, consider this: Today I just started my period and am feeling like shit. Think about what it might be like to have 1000 sharp blades carving into your lower abdomen at once while bawling your eyes out over phantom emotions and that's basically the gist. Then, on top of all of that, all that I have left in my house is Midol that expired in 2004 and considering there are zero dollars in my bank account, this is what I have to rely on. Since it expired a decade ago, I take 3x's the dosage and am now buzzed and loopy yet still feeling like there are small grenades going off in my ovaries every couple of seconds.
So, while wanting to kill someone bc my pain is so intense and in the midst of being jacked up on triple the dosage of pain meds, I also get pulled over on my way to work this morning. And get a speeding ticket along with being slapped with at least $400 in court costs, speeding fines, and other bullshit. This coincides nicely with the negative balance in my checking account.
Just wanted to let you all know that if you are having a bad day, it may not seem so bad now when compared to mine. Oh and by the way, it's 1pm and I'm at work where I am one of 2 people insane enough to be working during the holiday season. Therefore, I have cracked open a beer and am chugging it to add to the pain and dizziness that I already feel. I fully plan on being wasted by 3pm and I dare that same motherfucking cop to pull me over on my way home. Then I will be speeding AND driving drunk. What are you gonna do about that, asshole?!
Fuck Everything,

Most cities of any appreciable size have a capital improvements plan (CIP). With a veneer of credibility often provided by professional consultation and/or some limited public input, the CIP purports to outline the spending priorities of the community. A typical CIP identifies five years' worth of projects with a ranking that denotes their order of priority. It all looks and feels very professional.
Unfortunately, the typical CIP is nothing more than a wish list, one that is destined to get a city deeper into the Ponzi scheme without some serious inquiry.
In a legal sense, a city is an incorporated municipality. Like any other corporation, it has assets and liabilities that should be reflected on a balance sheet. It also has cash flow, which is the net of the amount of money coming and going each day. Many an otherwise successful business has gone bankrupt by not understanding the difference between their cash flow and their balance sheet.
Local governments have annual budgets that run into the hundreds of millions. They manage assets worth billions. And they have dependent partners -- property owners -- that control hundreds of billions of dollars in assets. But shockingly, despite their critical nature, local governments have no accounting of their long term liabilities.
Doubt me? Here's some simple questions for any local government to answer. See if yours can pass.

We can go on and look at the sanitary sewer system, public parks and public buildings in this same way.
These are basic questions any well run organization should be able to answer without too much problem. The answers won't always be precise -- they never are when you are looking into the future -- but there needs to be a general sense of where we're at. A balance of assets and obligations.
Many times in my career I've seen conscientous city council members presented with a plan to do some type of expansion to the system. As part of deciding whether or not to go forward with it, they'll ask some of these basic questions. There's never a satisfactory answer, one that gives confidence that we know what we're doing. At best, the council member can get the city to perform a "facilities study" to get some of these answers.
Facilities study? Seriously? Maintaining a running inventory of your assets and obligations is a basic part of operating and maintaining a system. If you have to do a facilities study to find out what facilities you have, you have a total mess.
That means most local governments are a total mess because few have even a basic inventory, let alone maintain a record of present condition, anticipated future expenses and corresponding revenue stream. Yet, how can any city staff member recommend, or any public official approve, for the incorporated municipality they serve to take on additional obligations when there is no basic accounting of current obligations?
Let's look at another local government obligation: pension funds. Imagine that a pension fund did no accounting of the assets it had, had no projection for future demands, had no understanding of its revenue stream and how that matched up with liabilities, but just simply looked at the money coming in each year and the money going out each year. If the money coming in exceeded the money going out, well then reduce the pension contribution because the fund obviously is bringing in too much money.
That's insanity! No pension fund could operate this way and we all understand that. We need to also see that cities cannot continue to operate this way either. It's simply not responsible.
All local governments need a thorough accounting of their assets, their liabilities, all of their future obligations and the corresponding revenue stream for each. This is a matter of day-to-day operations for any competent department head. It is the bare minimum obligation any local government has to its residents.
If you want to be a Strong Town, you have to actually measure whether you are. Do an inventory. The results will shock you. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9634389281272888}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '71581', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:ZVX4ZMIYGZOEAJMWMOE5GF6SRMQQCBYG', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:582ea893-c643-4058-9c06-f7e4e975fdab>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 2, 25, 11, 52, 40), 'WARC-IP-Address': '198.49.23.144', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:ZGM5RHJBJZAMBZZ77JTXNDODHFOJPQ4R', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:187b4aa0-bca8-4386-a52f-66af04a8a9fa>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2013/9/5/rational-response-2-inventory.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:a4310709-bc0c-40dc-94a2-2eb0b5773640>', 'WARC-Truncated': 'length'}", 'previous_word_count': '910', 'url': 'https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2013/9/5/rational-response-2-inventory.html', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-171-10-108.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-09\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for February 2017\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.3167247772216797', 'original_id': '781dfb9cab1b82a4993e29e3877ec76630da2fb4f6e8590d3940e27a46c30099'} |
This refers to reducing or eliminating government controls within a marketplace.
In the UK/US, sectors which have seen significant deregulation include financial services, airlines and utilities. Deregulation may accompany the privatisation of previously state owned services or be applied where it is felt market forces will provide improved incentives for competition and improved customer value. Opponents of deregulation typically cite social risks such as exclusion or reduced consumer/employee protection.
Deregulation is a term normally found in business economics and financial management.

Well, I don't think I'd ever see the day when I'd build a Wooden ship kit. Although they have intrigued me all my life, and I love the beauty of them. This kit is one of a Brittany Coast Fishing Trawler in a huge 1/20 scale! The only forseeable drawback I can see from it now is that the instructions are all in French!! So this will become a challenge for me. Stay tuned for updates on my building of this beautiful model. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '7235d788655f6ce2d86930106472efff839f95f4c99c631473c890c08701d5a8'} |

Learn about Student Fees
Student Fees Info
Recently the issue of fees, charges, deposits, donations and fundraising related to courses and activities has been at the forefront of public attention locally and nationally. This website's resources are provided as a guide for District staff and families, with the twin goals of school-community cooperation to support programs and legal compliance while providing that support. Taken as a whole, the intent of this Guidance is to emphasize that the question is not whether schools and their communities can raise money to support programs – they can – but how funds can be raised through lawful means.
This Guidance contains three sections. The first briefly summarizes the general rule precluding mandatory fees, charges and deposits for educational activities. The second and third section address related topics that are often associated with discussions and debate on the issue of fees, and are key elements in the lawful support of valued educational programs – the topics of donations and fundraising activities for programs, classes, schools, etc. Finally, there are a list of FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions).
To see a short video giving more details about the law and NHUSD's adherence to it, click below.
I. Summary of Rule
Finally, a process that allows for a waiver process for an otherwise mandatory fee, charge or deposit does not render it constitutionally permissible.
II. Donations
The Supreme Court in Hartzell v. Connell stated that “educational opportunities must be provided to all students without regard to their families’ ability or willingness to pay fees or request special waivers.” Also, in 1998 the California Attorney General addressed the issue of donations, and emphasized that the constitutional concerns are alleviated when the raising of private funds is truly voluntarily.
School districts, schools, programs and classes can and do seek and accept donations of funds and property, and this practice is permissible as long as it is truly voluntary and in no way a prerequisite to participation in the program or activity. Therefore, any statement or explanation related to a donation that could lead a reasonable person to believe the donation may not be truly voluntary is to be avoided. Examples include but are not limited to a specified minimum amount of a donation, a date by which a donation is due, a lesser donation amount if funds are received prior to a certain date. Additionally, any statements or actions that exert explicit or implicit pressure on students or parents to make a donation are to be avoided, and the reason a student or family does not make a donation is not a subject for inquiry – as the Hartzell court said, access to educational programs must not be tied to the willingness to pay a fee or request a waiver, not only the ability to pay a fee or request a waiver.
III. Fundraising
As with donations, school districts, schools, programs and classes can and do engage in fundraising activities and programs, and this practice is also permissible as long as the raising of funds is voluntary. A student who is asked to but does not raise funds may not be denied participation in an educational activity. A requirement to raise funds in order to participate, even if there is no mandated amount to be raised, is the same as requiring a fee.
The prohibition on the requirement for an individual student to raise money is to be distinguished from a requirement to attend a fundraising event as an element of participation in an activity, in the same way attendance at practices, games, rehearsals or performances are an expected aspect of participation. For example, expecting the members of a vocal ensemble to attend a fundraising concert that is on its calendar of events does not violate the “free school” guarantee, so long as attendance is the only requirement. Another example is when members of an athletic team are expected to help out with a fundraising sale at a Back to School Night or Open House – just as a coach can expect players to attend practices and games, he/she can expect players to attend a fundraising event as long as the requirement is to attend rather than to raise money as a condition of participation in the activity or program.
FAQ #1: May a school still receive donations from parents and guardians?
RESPONSE: Yes. School districts, schools, programs, and classes can and do seek and accept donations of funds and property, and this practice is permissible as long as the donation is truly voluntary and in no way a prerequisite to participation in the program or activity, including field trips. In addition, donations can NOT be made for a specific student; instead, they must be made to a school or program. For example, if a person wishes to donate to their school’s cheerleading program, they can donate to the cheer program or to the cost of cheer camp but not specifically for cheerleader Gabrielle Union’s participation in the program or the camp.
FAQ #2: may a school fundraise?
RESPONSE: Yes. School districts, schools, programs and classes can and do engage in fundraising activities and programs, and this practice is also permissible as long as the raising of funds is voluntary. You may require students to attend a fundraising event; however, if they are unable to raise funds, you cannot prevent them from participating in the educational activity the fundraising is supporting. Also, attendance at a fundraiser can be required if it is a team or club event. Penalties for non-attendance would be similar to those imposed for failure to attend any other team or club event (e.g., sitting out a game, etc.).
FAQ #3: can schools charge for any costs of field trips?
RESPONSE: No. School districts, schools, programs, and classes may not charge students for the cost of transportation, admission, meals, or any other expense associated with the field trip that is necessary for student participation. The school can receive donations for field trip expenses and may fundraise under the conditions described previously.
FAQ #4: may a school charge fees for uniforms or materials for team sports or activities?
RESPONSE: No. A school must provide a free uniform and other necessary materials to any student who is a member of the school team. You can allow students to purchase their own uniforms and other materials if they want to purchase and keep those items; however, buying a uniform or other materials cannot be a requirement to participate in a sport. If the student does not purchase the uniform or other materials, it remains the property of the school and is treated as if it were a textbook: if it is lost or damaged beyond reasonable wear and tear, the student is responsible for the repair or replacement costs. This also applies to lab fees—they are also prohibited unless the student agrees to keep the materials purchased.
FAQ #5: Can a school charge fees only to those students who can afford them, and provide a waiver process for those who can’t?
RESPONSE: No. A waiver process based on financial need or inability to pay does not make an otherwise non-permissible fee permissible. A teacher could not say, “The cost of the trip is $10 per person, but if you can’t pay, see me and we’ll see what we can do.” That is a waiver process. Instead, a teacher can say, “The cost of the trip for our entire class to go is $350, which works out to $10 a student. We will be asking for donations to raise $350 for the trip; a suggested donation is $10.”
FAQ #6: Can a school charge a gym fee for PE clothes?
RESPONSE: No. California public schools cannot charge fees for gym or physical education clothes. Education Code 49066 states: “No grade of a pupil participating in a physical education class may be adversely affected due to the fact that the pupil does not wear standardized physical education apparel where the failure to wear such apparel arises from circumstances beyond the control of the pupil,” such as for lack of sufficient funds. A school could “check out” PE clothes to students, similar to a textbook check out, which the student would need to pay for if the clothes are damaged or lost.
FAQ #7: do these policies apply to activities that occur outside the school day?
RESPONSE: Yes. California law prohibiting fees applies as long as the activity is affiliated with the school, whether it be outside the school day or school year. For example, if a teacher wanted to lead a group of students for a trip to a statewide conference during the summer, the teacher could ask the students to pay as long as it was clear that the trip was not connected to the school. If that event occurred during the year, and the teacher would be absent, she would need to take a personal day for her absence so that there is clearly no endorsement by the school or district for the trip’s required fee.
FAQ #8: On a field trip, can students be asked to pay for their own meals?
RESPONSE: Students can only be asked to pay for their food if they do not qualify for free or reduced price lunch. However, because a student’s qualification for free or reduced price lunch is private information which even a principal cannot access, students cannot be asked to pay for their own meals on field trips. If the field trip will last over the lunch period, teachers may consider either including each person’s lunch in the donation costs, or contacting Food Services to get a sack lunch for each student. Teachers can, for example, ask which students would like to bring their own lunch instead of having a bag lunch provided by the school, and raise funds to provide a sufficient number of school lunches. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '205', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9629355669021606}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '49805', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:E2UHGT434GXLBI64QQTM6ZCQ452LUBHJ', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:136ccff8-cb05-4f6e-8d98-18ab3ceba731>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 8, 21, 10, 7, 31), 'WARC-IP-Address': '151.101.32.80', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:64X2D5773WWWRDU3S56C326URH3OHU2C', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:42725c93-4e1b-4220-8404-b7f117d1a5b0>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.mynhusd.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=411353&type=d&pREC_ID=898213', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:2a96b0f9-7ee4-4f1d-8ac5-80ae67c44492>', 'WARC-Truncated': 'length'}", 'previous_word_count': '1726', 'url': 'http://www.mynhusd.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=411353&type=d&pREC_ID=898213', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-178-11-125.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-34\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for August 2017\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.04501885175704956', 'original_id': '2e256a942dc4284c3703052e1a36e8ce1f0880fdd70dd7b1124b9f2108251aa9'} |

Also please get us more information how you connect your devices and what devices are in the chain. Is there an AVR in between. If so, did you try to connect the NUC to the TV directly.
I believe you, when you say, that it works with Win10, but we might need a bit more information.
Which setting is being used?
This depends on what you want to change. If you want to change the SMB settings at the LE settings addon, then you have to edit
and change the settings accordingly
So that's done in the same way:
1. systemctl stop kodi
2. edit /storage/.cache/services/samba.conf and change:
to whatever version you would like to use
3. systemctl start kodi
We have to be aware, that there are 2 section for the SMB settings in LibreELEC
One at the LE settings add-on itself and the other one in the kodi settings.
The LE settings addon can't be edited via an xml-file. The section where you have to change the kodi service settings and therefore the SMB client is correclty the guisettings.xml
I just tried that here on a vm and I change and I can't confirm the problem.
Please do it in the following way:
ssh in into your LE machine.
execute:systemctl stop kodi
then change the following lines at the guisettings.xml from
<setting id="smb.maxprotocol" default="true">0</setting>
<setting id="smb.minprotocol" default="true">0</setting>
<setting id="smb.maxprotocol">3</setting>
<setting id="smb.minprotocol">2</setting>
it's important that you remove the default="true" section on both
after that execute: systemctl start kodi
then check your settings and it should have minimum 2 and maximum 3
The kodi file manager doesn´t have a source by default. You have to add the sources by adding the home folder or specific subfolders of that home folder. I don´t have a LE machine handy atm, but it might also be possible that "Home" is not visible. Then your "home"-folder is /storage/
You can also access those "Video", "Music" folders from any other PC in your network. Those folders are shares by default via SMB.
Please read the wiki for that: Accessing LibreELEC []
After you have accessed those folders you can copy any files to those.
It all depends what you want to achieve in the end. If one box is running 24/7, then you could also make use of UPnP, with all its pros and cons.
If you want something like "stopping the video in the living room and continue watching it from the same position in the bedroom", them Emby or a MySQL database might be the way to go
Emby should be available as a docker. If not then it can be easily installed as such.
I guess you won't have a real benefit of HDMI 2.1. We discussed the stuff which is supported by HDMI 2.1 and for the normal usage and by looking at your setup, I would say you don't need to wait for that. 35W would be nice, indeed.
HDMI 2.0b supports 4k60 and unless you need more resolution (where we currently have no content for) or higher fps (your eye is not capable of recognizing nearly anyything >100Hz, IIRC) I don't see the benefit.
The only interesting option is EARC if Netflix supports Atmos and you will use that with your TV app and would like to have that at your AVR.
But as your AVR isn't capable of atmos at all, I also don't see the benefit in buying something with HDMI 2.1
Did I miss something?
Yeah, and if you want to have all the benefit of bitstreaming, then I have to say that the RPi3 is not the correct dievice for you. For me it's not the correct device as well as I also like bitstreaming, hence I own something x86. The actual RPi4 should do bitstreaming of HD audio. But that's currently a pretty new product and many tests have to be done. So if you want something that "just works", I can't recommend that.
It's a long log, those lines are all I can find that has anything to do with the SMB.
I can't help much as I don't own a RPi4 yet. But...
- enable debug logging
- disable everything unneded (Live-TV, library update on startup if enabled and such)
- restart kodi / reboot LibreELEC
- reproduce your issue as fast as you can (don't do anything else)
- grab the log
Also please get us some additional outputs
- ip a | pastebinit
- and probably dmesg | pastebinit
I highly guess our devs might need that info if it's not a known issue.
Operation not permitted
is a pretty good indicator for probably a password error. Are you sure you have setup SMB2 shares on your Windows machine? Does the same work with a RPi3? Have you checked the sources or probably tried to re-adding using the "add network connection" option to see if you are able to connect to the shares.
are you sure that the RPi4 is on the same network? If it has static IPs are you also sure it's a different IP from what the RPi3 uses? | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9527073502540588}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '91365', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:OWW2KIIAC37QX5ZPOPJJ2XQOOEL3Q7JF', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:cc19b37d-4966-4b06-a706-ff41e5aea965>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2020, 7, 16, 14, 17, 32), 'WARC-IP-Address': '172.67.71.200', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:MBKLYJ7WNS2S2AU3AEU5KWOTT7224J4A', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:288b9c74-7684-4e85-8331-92695c8a4409>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://forum.libreelec.tv/user-post-list/9-davu/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:73d17ae8-a891-4caa-89ee-cb28ca8dc57a>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '830', 'url': 'https://forum.libreelec.tv/user-post-list/9-davu/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-29\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for July 2020\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-95.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.17 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.2-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.1115310788154602', 'original_id': '6b304ae8c87e824aa3ffa4e04daec3236992cb73f7e8dd3917e1812fb51c9dcb'} |

Mary O’Rourke and the Lenihan’s: A family of traitors
On 29 June last I published a post entitled ‘The O’Rourke’s: A family of traitors’.
I have received a number of comments that require clarification.
Madeleine Cleary pointed out that my headline was incorrect. It should have read ‘The Lenihan family’ rather than ‘The O’Rourke family’.
I completely agree. My error can, I think, be attributed to the fact that the post was prompted after listening to comments by Mary O’Rourke. The headline has been corrected.
Fergus O’Rourke makes the odd claim that the post insults his family. He then goes on to accept that I was not referring to his family.
The only O’Rourke mentioned is a Lenihan by birth, and it is clearly Lenihans whom you intend to smear.
So why is Fergus insulted if he knows I was not referring to his family?
My intention was not to smear the Lenihan/O’Rourke family but rather to state a fact.
The definition of traitor, in the context of the term as I use it, is:
A person who commits treason by betraying his or her country.
I have no doubt that the vast majority of Irish citizens are of the belief that their politicians have betrayed them.
I believe that our political system is hopelessly corrupt and totally incapable of reforming itself.
I believe that politicians who openly and shamelessly support that corrupt system are traitors.
Mary O’Rourke, Brian Lenihan Snr., Brian Lenihan Jnr., Haughey, Bertie Ahern, Brian Cowen, John Gormley, Mary Harney, Michael McDowell and all the rest of the same flawed pedigree are traitors to Ireland and its people.
We only have to look around at the financial damage and personal suffering inflicted on the Irish people to see the proof of their betrayal.

Traitor is a word seems meaningless in the political context.
Control of all avenues to and of redress are absolute and that seems apparent as the consensus remains: “Ah shur”.

Politicians are the royal family of ireland. We may no longer have uk rule on most of the island yet we elect politicians that are sons, daughters, nephews etc. countless generation of td, senators and councillors. Many proven to be corrupt yet we still reelect them. We should catalogue every corruption, every allegation and point these out to the electorate the next time there is an election. Name and shame one and all. If you can find a clean politican in this country I would be shocked. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9683360457420348}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '20362', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:FVDIK75SLSFV2TUPKKMLEZB2YYUZHQ77', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:9cf33f8c-6341-4b33-89a3-43374acc402b>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 31, 5, 20, 6), 'WARC-IP-Address': '104.28.4.102', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:6AWWYTTKOENS436G5W26HOD634IQJPTS', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:f4b6350f-928f-4324-a93f-2bafa8287ffd>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.publicinquiry.eu/2013/07/29/mary-orourke-and-the-lenihans-a-family-of-traitors/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:4373f547-d5f3-4b43-9f04-585d6c845f43>', 'WARC-Truncated': 'length'}", 'previous_word_count': '418', 'url': 'http://www.publicinquiry.eu/2013/07/29/mary-orourke-and-the-lenihans-a-family-of-traitors/', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-16-133-185.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2014-42\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web with URLs provided by Blekko for October 2014\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.036893367767333984', 'original_id': 'b5c501f71e0b5a78b6c31fdb01f8d5f4dd7392294e22567e7df298acbaa50459'} |

LETTERS; 'Venom'? 'Cult'? It's Campaign Fever
Published: February 13, 2008
To the Editor:
Re ''Hate Springs Eternal,'' by Paul Krugman (column, Feb. 11):
Mr. Krugman, a consistent critic of Barack Obama, did not produce a shred of evidence for his categorical statement that the ''venom'' being displayed in the Democratic campaign comes from Obama supporters, ''who want their hero or nobody.'' And it seems to perpetuate the same bizarre bitterness that he derides in his column.
Even worse is his assertion that ''the Obama campaign seems dangerously close to becoming a cult of personality.'' I am surprised and saddened that a thoughtful public intellectual like Mr. Krugman would write such a careless and unfair statement at a moment of critical potential in national politics.
Barack Obama is changing the way we think about race in America. His inclusive message is so refreshing that, in addition to strong backing from blacks, he is drawing unprecedented nationwide support from white voters. It is so upsetting that this remarkable and historic feat is belittled as a ''cult of personality.''

To the Editor:
I see nothing illogical that a close competition for the most important leadership role in the world would be extremely competitive. But venomous? We're not even close. Just this year, the Republicans (John McCain versus Mitt Romney) have been much more combative than Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Perhaps Paul Krugman is closer to the point in recognizing that we are a nation focused on personality; much of what passes for public discourse is driven by celebrity, hyped-up conflict, and the trend for news and sports coverage to resemble each other.
Barack Obama's supporters certainly did not create this trend, nor can they be faulted for recognizing that character and inspiration are as important as ideas in picking a leader. This is not a result of some irrational spell, and implying that we're joining a cult of personality really misses the point about our recognizing the qualities our nation needs to effectively move forward to collectively meet our challenges.

To the Editor:
Paul Krugman decries the ''bitterness of the fight for the Democratic nomination'' and then proceeds to contribute to the name-calling by comparing Obama supporters to members of a ''cult.'' I find that offensive.
I am passionately in favor of a change from the current administration. Does that make me a member of a cult? I am passionately opposed to a Clinton presidency. Does that make me a member of a cult?
Like thousands of other voters who lean Democratic, I don't pledge allegiance to the Democratic Party. I will vote for the candidate I think will best serve the nation.
I don't have to give Mr. Krugman or anyone else my strong assurances that I will support the Democratic nominee, and I don't have to apologize to Mr. Krugman or any Democratic Party apparatchik for passionately opposing Hillary Rodham Clinton.

To the Editor:
As a self-identified progressive, I often find useful insights and information in Paul Krugman's columns. Not so in ''Hate Springs Eternal.''
Mr. Krugman paints supporters of Barack Obama with too broad a brush when he alleges that they ''want their hero or nobody,'' and therefore engage in venomous attacks on Mr. Obama's rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
I am an Obama supporter, as are many people I know. Every Obama supporter I know wants to see a Democrat next in the White House first, and Mr. Obama as that Democrat only second. The ''examples'' Mr. Krugman cites demonstrate that Clinton-bashing is popular sport, not that Obama supporters (rather than the media or isolated individuals) engage in it.
To top it all off, Mr. Krugman compares Mr. Obama's ability to inspire and organize to George W. Bush's demonstrated penchant for conceit and self-indulgence in Operation Flight Suit. Who's perpetuating ''Nixonland'' now?

To the Editor:
Cult of personality, indeed. Barack Obama has style, but no substance. He has been in national politics only a couple of years. And the media have given him a virtually free ride.
But we did ''likability'' and inexperience eight years ago with George W. Bush and look where that's gotten us. It is frightening how easily some of us are persuaded by hype, especially when we are confronting such serious problems as a nation and in the world.
Hillary Rodham Clinton does have substance: knowledge, experience, intelligence, sensitivity, stamina. She has withstood attacks from all sides and come out whole. She is the only candidate in this race in whom I have complete faith and confidence to do the right thing. With all that is at stake, I can only hope that the media will start doing their job and that the American people will see the light this time around. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'aa97044b630007de9f747c4bf1f36f8853f47bf1aa50ac2e18389e2e93f1fbe0'} |
With Kristaps Porzingis in city, Nets will never dethrone Knicks
Kristaps Porzingis gives the Knicks a franchise player to build around and young star that will help them continue to dominate the city for many years.
There was always the deep rooted tradition of the Knicks in New York, the institution that the Nets were never going to overcome no matter how many pep rallies they hosted at Brooklyn Borough Hall.
But that's not what the Nets are fighting now in their dying quest for New York's attention. On the other side of the Manhattan Bridge, there's the kind of young savior that Brooklyn can't fathom for quite some time because of all those traded draft picks, because a perfectly good startup collapsed under Mikhail Prokhorov's hubris.
This is Kristaps Porzingis' town for the taking. The Nets needed somebody like the 7-3 Latvian to make their mark and reverse the pecking order, but instead blew their assets load on mercenaries Deron Williams, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce.
"Sometimes I see somebody with a Brooklyn hat on, I say, 'What is that? You need a Knicks hat,'" Porzingis said ahead of Friday's intra-borough game at the Garden. "I joke around with them. Sometimes I seem them. Not as many as Knicks fans, though."
Apparently Porzingis, named the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month for November on Thursday, can make anything more interesting. His injection of G-rated trash-talk into this stale rivalry is the best thing to happen to Knicks-Nets since Pierce's mouth left for Washington.
There's no kind way to describe the state of the Nets: they're in a bad place. A terrible place, actually, just nine months after CEO Brett Yormark declared the team was in position to "own the city." They hold the second-worst record in the Eastern Conference at 5-13 despite a two-game winning streak. Their next first-round draft pick - and we're not talking about a swapped or acquired one - is currently a freshman or sophomore in high school, waiting for 2019 to have his name called by Adam Silver. The crowds are dwindling at Barclays Center, reaching a record low of 12,241 last month. Their games are blacked out for Comcast subscribers because of a dispute with YES Network and nobody seems to care. Top free agents aren't lining up to play alongside Brook Lopez and Thaddeus Young. It's tough to discern if the owner is buying more of the team or selling it.
Brook Lopez and the Nets are struggling and have no signs of improving the team in the near future.
The Knicks, on the other hand, are coming off a 65-loss disaster, remain under .500 this season and are still surrounded by positive vibes. Why? Porzingis. He has the fans, the city, the media, eating out of his hands. And maybe we shouldn't be so surprised considering the 20-year-old was literally bred for this by his oldest brother.
"(Janis) was always thinking 10 steps ahead. When I was younger I took extra English classes just to make sure I have good English if I had the chance to play professionally. Things like that," Porzingis said. "When I was young I was doing a lot of extra stuff for my body. Now that makes sense, all the stuff I did. At that time, I was like, 'Why do you make me do all this stuff?' But that just showed me how much they were preparing me for what's coming."
Derek Fisher theorized that the twin brother matchup of Brook and Robin Lopez was the "most interesting" part of of Friday's game. He was wrong. It's Porzingis. It's always Porzingis. The Lopez brothers could stage a light saber duel at the top of the Empire State Building and a debate about Porzingis' nickname would still get more attention.
If anybody can recruit and galvanize fans, it's a power forward with a swagger and penchant for thunderous putback dunks. He belongs to the Knicks, whose stranglehold on New York basketball hasn't been stronger since they were the only team in the city. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.968708634376526}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '128770', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:F7L6AJLEMLOZIDXSZAD2NYAG2LCORK3U', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:7e67e7db-9803-4d4c-a3ae-0244ad4de920>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2022, 9, 30, 3, 25, 46), 'WARC-IP-Address': '104.84.231.159', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:Z2ZCUSTEPXXMOWX4ERBOVFRSWQHDQTFB', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:8f76d2ad-cde8-4ebe-aa4b-15f9a9814f98>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/nets/s-bondy-porzingis-lowly-rival-nets-years-article-1.2454898?cid=bitly', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:32d11979-f9cb-480a-a949-15504e1b9397>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '688', 'url': 'https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/nets/s-bondy-porzingis-lowly-rival-nets-years-article-1.2454898?cid=bitly', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2022-40\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for September/October 2022\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-14\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.19 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.4-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: https://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.08484667539596558', 'original_id': '687a64c66c27e0258745931c24ea53ad6067df6f542a26633e6ab0128476d414'} |
Second, soon after exposure to TGF b1, epithelial markers are imp
2nd, right after publicity to TGF b1, epithelial markers are increased in podocytes associated with enhanced tight junction formation, as opposed to decreased, as observed in traditional EMT, which facilitates cellular separation and invasion. Inside a reverse approach of podocyte maturation, ZO one migrates and trans locates through the basal to the lateral side in the podocyte. Third, TGF b1 and also other stimuli of EMT act to sup press epithelial proliferation, whereas TGF b1 enhances podocyte proliferation in our human podocytes. Taken to gether, the phenotypic modifications observed in our in vitro peptide synthesis companies and in vivo models are additional appropriately described as de differentiation, the regression of a specialized cell to a sim pler, more embryonic, unspecialized type. In typical with EMT, each processes seem to be a indicates by which intrinsic cellular plasticity facilitates quick structural and functional adaptations.
irreversible MEK inhibitor Despite the fact that ef facement of podocytes is generally thought to be an abnor mal response to damage, the formation of de novo tight junctions between podocytes may well act to counteract the expansion of glomerular capillaries in response to damage. Without a doubt, we show within this examine that the dedifferentiation of cultured podocytes success in increased podocyte connections with reorganized of tight junctions, a at cobble stone like look that minimizes albumin ux throughout the monolayer, as previously described in epithelial cells. Yet, despite the fact that adaptive during the short term, these phenotypic transitions may eventually come to be malad aptive, wherever their continual activation could possibly aggravate glomer ular uid and shear anxiety, thereby resulting in progressive organ dysfunction. Our ndings are consistent using the identified actions of TGF b and angiotensin on podocyte differentiation and apoptosis underneath usual glucose disorders. Having said that, with respect to ZO 1, diabetic mice have already been reported to display decreased glomerular expression of this protein and a smaller but nonsigni cant result of hy perglycemia on primary rat glomerular epithelial cells.
By contrast, we observed the expression of ZO 1 was greater by TGF b in association with all the greater formation of tight junctions among adjacent dediffer entiated cells. It really is potential that the loss of podocytes with diabetes confounds interpretation of a few of these ndings. Furthermore, these success could also re ect the disparate actions of hyperglycemia and TGF b on podocytes, along with the numerous cell lines
implemented from the different scientific studies. Prior scientific studies of podocytes in culture have been criti cized due to lack of markers of mature podocytic differentiation. The condi tionally immortalized human podocyte cell line established by Saleem et al.
In RBA one cells, our former scientific studies have demonstrated
In RBA 1 cells, our prior scientific studies have demonstrated that IL 1b and BK can up regulate MMP 9 expression by way of activation of NF B. Nonetheless, the chance of MAPKs and NF B activation and their roles in MMP 9 up regulation and cellular perform induced by TGF b1 in astrocytes are poorly defined. Within this study, we investigated the molecular mechan isms as well as the practical responses underlying TGF b1 induced MMP 9 expression in RBA 1 cells. These get ings indicate that TGF b1 induced MMP 9 expression via TGF b receptors is mediated via a ROS depen dent activation of ERK1 two, JNK1 two, and NF B pathway, eventually leading to cell migration in RBA 1 cells. These outcomes propose that TGF b1 induced astrocytic MMP 9 up regulation might play a vital function in physiological and pathological brain tissue remodeling such as wound healing and scar formation.

Rat brain astrocyte culture RBA 1 cells have been utilised all through this review. This cell line originated from a major astrocyte culture of neo natal rat cerebrum and naturally designed as a result of suc cessive cell passages. Staining of RBA 1 using the astrocyte unique marker, glial fibrillary acid protein, showed practically 95% good staining. On this study, the RBA 1 cells inside of 40 passages have been employed that showed typical cellular morphological characteris tics and had regular growth and proliferation from the monolayer process.
Cells have been cultured and taken care of as previously described. Main astrocyte cultures have been prepared from the cortex of six day old Sprague Dawley rat pups as previously described. The purity of major astrocyte cultures was assessed together with the astrocyte

The culture medium was altered each and every 3 days. MMP gelatin zymography Immediately after TGF b1 treatment method, the culture medium was collected, mixed with equal amounts of non diminished sample buffer, and electrophoresed on 10% SDS polya crylamide gels containing 1 mg ml gelatin like a protease substrate.
In vivo transplantation scientific studies, although not quantita
In vivo transplantation research, though not quantitative, have demonstrated the GMP has latent potential for lymphoid differentiation. The GMP or its progeny can migrate into the thymus and undergo cell differentiation at a very low frequency. In sharp contrast, in vitro, the GMP displays a robust potential for cell but not for cell differentiation. Distinctions within the GMPs likely for cell differentiation unveiled beneath in vitro vs. in vivo settings highlight the progenitors standard bone marrow homing properties and an intrinsic capacity for cell differentiation when presented with acceptable signals. On this regard, it’s noteworthy the Notch1 receptor, normally primed within the HSC and up regulated in the LMPP, is still expressed while in the GMP and may well promote the observed cell differentiation on OP9 DL1 stroma. Taken together our GMP studies and latest reports for the ETP predict a similarity within the lineage restriction processes along the myeloid and cell pathways.
The two seem to involve a fast reduction in cell possible in addition to a gradual reduction in cell or myeloid probable respectively. The lymphoid probable of an HSC is augmented while in restriction to an LMPP and this achieve is dependent on Ikaros. In line with this biological impact, Ikaros is responsible to the activation and propagation of a cascade of lymphoid lineage selling genetic packages through the HSC on the LMPP. Loss of Ikaros uniquely reviews each known regulators of early lymphopoiesis and genes more hints which have been probably novel regulators of this process. The nuclear things Sox4, Satb1, FoxP1 previously implicated in cell and cell growth, are in the initial line of regulators downstream of Ikaros. These could possibly deliver the results to augment expression of lymphoid genes at the same time as to repress competing genetic applications. Signaling receptors just like Flt3, IL 7R and Notch1, expressed inside the HSC and LMPP and essential for lymphocyte growth can also be dependent on Ikaros for ordinary expression.
Improved expression JAK inhibitor with the signaling adaptors Socs2 and Socs3, involved during the detrimental regulation of STAT signaling, may perhaps provide additional interference to residual Flt3 or IL 7R signaling manifested in mutant progenitors. Signaling molecules for example Btla, Clnk, Pkib, CD52, proven to become critical for functional responses of mature lymphocytes, can also be expressed from the LMPP and their dependence on
Ikaros suggests that these could also contribute to early lymphoid improvement. CCR9 expression while in the LMPP supports progenitor migration to the thymus and its reduction within the mutant progenitors may possibly make clear the decreased variety of thymic progenitors reported in Ikaros null mice.
That viruses are inducers of PTGS will not be unique to transgeni
That viruses are inducers of PTGS isn’t precise to transgenic plants, due to the fact virus induced gene silencing takes place in wt plants when the infecting virus with both an RNA or DNA genome is engineered to express an endogenous gene. Additionally, viral RNAs are targeted for silencing, and virus precise siRNAs of the two good and damaging polarities accumulate in wt plants contaminated with wt viruses, demonstrating that viruses are each inducers and targets of RNA silencing in plants. The thought that RNA silencing is an antiviral mechanism in plants is additional supported by two more lines of proof. 1st, genetic scientific studies indicate the RNA silencing mechanism protects host plants against virus infection. Such as, Arabidopsis mutants carrying loss of perform mutations in necessary silencing pathway genes this kind of as RDR6, AGO1, and DCL2 present enhanced illness susceptibility to virus infection. EDS was also observed in transgenic tobacco plants with decreased expression of either the RDR1 or RDR6 homolog.
Second, RNA silencing as an antiviral mechanism in plants is strongly supported by the demonstration that important virulence variables of quite a few plant RNA and DNA viruses are VSRs, that’s mentioned in detail below. It has not been clear what mechanism controls innate immunity against viruses in Drosophila melanogaster. Innate immunity towards bacterial and fungal pathogens selleck inhibitor is mediated from the Toll and Imd pathways. Even so, a worldwide microarray evaluation has uncovered induction of the new set of genes by virus infection that isn’t going to incorporate the properly characterized antimicrobial peptide genes. The very first indication for a position of RNA silencing during the response of D. melanogaster to virus infection came from the observation the B2 protein of Flock house virus exhibited action to suppress RNA silencing in plants. FHV is a member on the relatives Nodaviridae, which includes a positivestrand RNA genome and involves Laquinimod pathogens of insects and fishes, despite the fact that the style alphanodavirus, Nodamura virus, can lethally infect not merely insects but also mammals.
Without a doubt, FHV infection of cultured Drosophila cells triggers manufacturing of FHV specific siRNAs, and B2 expression is vital to establish infection. Accumulation of the FHV mutant not expressing B2 was detected in Drosophila cells only immediately after depletion of AGO2
by RNAi, indicating that FHV infection triggers antiviral silencing in an AGO2 dependent method. Induction and suppression from the AGO2 dependent antiviral silencing by NoV have also been demonstrated in cultured D. melanogaster and Anopheles gambiae cells. Working with genetic reduction of function mutants, we have not long ago proven that the RNA silencing pathway controls innate immunity against two distinct viruses in adult D.
Having said that, in HMEC 1 cultured in bronectin, SB 431542 only
Nonetheless, in HMEC one cultured in bronectin, SB 431542 only inhibited TGF b1 induced Smad2 phosphorylation, with no result on bronectin TGF b1 induced Smad1 5 8 phosphorylation. These data recommended that ALK5 just isn’t expected for bronectin mediated regulation of Smad1 5 eight signalling in endothelial cells. In contrast, dominant adverse ALK1 abolished TGF b1 induced Smad1 five eight phosphorylation also as bronectin augmented Smad1 five eight phosphorylation, propose ing the regulation of TGF b1 induced Smad1 5 8 signal ling by bronectin takes place in an ALK1 dependent method. TGF activates integrin a5b1 signalling in an endoglin dependent manner As TGF is reported to manage integrin a5b1 expression in non endothelial cells, we investigated whether TGF b1 might possibly regulate integrin a5b1 expression in endothelial cells. TGF b1 improved integrin a5b1 expression ranges inside a time and dose dependent manner in endothelial cells.
TGF remedy had no effect on integrin a5 and b1 ranges on the mRNA degree, and induced integrin a5b1 ranges swiftly, starting at 15 min, suggesting an impact in the protein level. Also, although pretreatment together with the lysosome inhibitor, leupeptin, greater a5 and b1 basal ranges, pretreatment inhibited TGF b1 induced selleck inhibitor boost in integrin a5b1 amounts. Even so, the proteasome inhibitor, MG132, failed to inhibit TGF b1 induced a5 and b1 ranges. These benefits propose that TGF b1 increases integrin a5b1 expression by stopping lysosome mediated integrin a5b1 degradation. Phosphorylation of integrin b1 on threonines 788 789 is indicative of integrin a5b1 activation. Moreover to growing integrin a5b1 expression, TGF induced phosphorylation of integrin b1 on threonines 788 789 in HMEC 1 and MEEC. Having said that, TGF b1 didn’t stimulate phosphorylation of integ rin b1 to the very same extent in the MEEC or HMEC one with silenced endoglin expression. Focal adhesion kinase is phosphorylated following integrin activation and it is a vital downstream mediator of integrin signalling.
Constant using the effects on TGF b1 mediated integrin a5b1 activation,TGF b1 remedy signicantly enhanced FAK phosphorylation at Tyr576 577 and modestly increased FAK phosphorylation at Tyr397 in MEEC t t and HMEC one, whereas TGF b1 had no effect on FAK selleckchem phosphorylation in MEEC or HMEC 1 with
silenced endoglin expression. More, as integrin phosphorylation of FAK at Tyr 576 577 involves Src recruitment, TGF b1 increased Src phosphorylation at Tyr416 in MEEC t t, while getting no result in MEEC. In contrast towards the results of TGF b1, BMP 9 did not induce integrin a5b1 expression and only transiently induced integrin b1 phos phorylation.
We noticed that Computer 3ML cells constitutively expressed Fibro
We discovered that Computer 3ML cells constitutively expressed Fibronectin, Vimentin and FSP 1 and lacked E cadherin expression. Notably, a stable EMT phenotype was maintained as indicated by continued expression of Vimentin in cells cultured for an addi tional four days following discontinuation of your EMT inducing treat ments. To ensure that E induced EMT was not an artifact associated with cell lines, cell passage or continued growth in EGF containing media, we taken care of freshly established organ cul tures from a GS six prostate cancer specimen with the unique ligands. These organ cultures developed outgrowths of prostate epithelial cells and we observed that E T, but not TGF alone, induced major morphological changes reminiscent of EMT and promoted Vimentin expression right after six days of therapy. Taken with each other, these outcomes recommend that signaling pathways activated by each EGF and TGF perform synergistically to induce EMT in epithelial cells derived from lower grade prostate tumors.
On top of that, they imply that induction of EMT by TGF won’t call for transformation of pri mary cell lines, rather TGF induction of EMT might be a characteris tic of epithelial cells isolated from greater grade tumors. EGF signaling modulates cellular selleck chemicals AG-014699 responses to TGF to induce the upregulation of pro metastatic genes and an invasive phenotype. A few transcription things, including individuals from the Snail, Twist and Zeb households, have been recognized as vital regulators of EMT and are necessary for cell movement and metastatic spread in the selection of cancers. We observed that E remedy induced expression of Slug and Twist2 in IBC 10a cells and PCa 20a cells. Remedy of those cells with EGF or TGF alone failed to elicit important modifications inside the expression of Slug. EGF alone induced Twist2 expression in both IBC 10a and PCa 20a cells but much less Ganetespib than that observed by E therapy. In PC3 ML cells, TGF alone was enough to upregulate Slug and Twist2 mRNA two. five and three fold, respectively.
EGF alone had no effect to the expression of these genes, and E treatment method was as efficacious as TGF treatment method alone. In contrast, the expression of Snail, Twist1 and Zeb1 two was not induced by these ligands in any of our pri mary cell lines. Yet, PC3 ML cells expressed a substantial basal degree of Zeb1 and Twist2. As anticipated, PC3 ML cells constitutively expressed high lev els of Vimentin in minimum media
regardless of treatment. The upregulation of MMPs, together with MMP 2, MMP 9 and MT MMP1, can also be linked to acquisition of an EMT phenotype and is significant to break down stromal barriers in the course of invasion and metastasis.

How can you get information from a form and append it to a table?
I am making a website in which I need to get information from a form and store it in a table that everyone else can see.
For example, every time someone fills out the form and presses "submit", the user is taken to another page where a table is created. The table will append the information that the user just put. If the tab is refreshed or someone else visits the site, the information in the table will still be there.
I believe I need a server for this, so if there is any guidance regarding how to use a server, it would be much appreciated. -THERE ARE COMMENTS REGARDING THIS, NOW I NEED AN ANSWER TO THE QUESTION BELOW
However, more specifically, I want to at least be able to use local storage to find out the technique for saving the data and keeping it in the table for at least one user.
I have some code below that is attempting to use local storage, but it is not currently working. I have a form elsewhere, and I also call the div myresult in another page. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
function refresh() {
const result = document.getElementById("myresult");
const saved = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("save"));
if (saved) {
const t =
`<table>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>LastName</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>${saved.name}</td>
<td>${saved.lastname}</td>
</tr>
</table>`;
myresult.innerHTML = t;
}
const form = document.getElementById("myform");
form.addEventListener("submit", e => {
e.preventDefault();
const {
elements
} = form;
const output = {
name: elements.name.value,
lastname: elements.lastname.value,
};
localStorage.setItem("save", JSON.stringify(output));
const template =
`<table>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>LastName</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>${output.name}</td>
<td>${output.lastname}</td>
</tr>
</table>`;
myresult.innerHTML = template;
})

There's a lot about how to setup servers online, like this intro to express nodejs. It uses the same syntax as your frontend JavaScript, howver it also implies that you have a local dev enviroment setup. Depending on if you are on windows, mac, or other, you will have to research how to get access to terminal, etc.
I'm new to all of this, but to make sure I'm understanding this correctly, I can download/make a server on my laptop and then when my website is published others will be able to get the information that is put on to the server from my computer?
No, you would create a local server on your computer for testing and development. You will need a remote server on the internet to share your work with the rest of the world.
Okay, I understand. Thank you!
@Kinglish you can certainly have a server hosted locally if you have some machine that is always on and connected to the internet. It's just a bit more of a hassle. I definitely would use remote hosting for all projects that OP would be doing.
@charlie-map - true, thanks I should have mentioned it.... given the OPs experience level, I wanted to steer them away from opening their computer to the world and spend their learning on something more scalable.
@Kinglish yeah I agree - Since you need an entire system that is stably running constantly, it's not worth the time at this point. As for local dev environment (assuming OP is using Windows or Mac), I would point you towards this Windows article and this package manager for Mac. Of note: I have never done the Mac installation (on my own computer), but I've helped a lot of people get homebrew installed, and it seems to work well for what you likely want.
Thanks to both of you, but do either of you know how I can do it for just myself using local storage? The code I provided in my original question aims to do that, but it isn't working for some reason.
The main issue here is your use of your form element. Say your form had the following style:
<form id="myform">
<input placeholder="Name">
<input placeholder="LastName">
<input type="submit">
</form>
When you select using the JavaScript selector, you first do:
const {
elements
} = form;
Try console.log()ing what elements is, and you may notice that elements might look a little different than what your code is presuming. When you console.log() (this shows up in the browser consoler, which you can find using right click, inspect element, find the tab named console), the response will look something like:
{
0: <input placeholder="Name">,
1: <input placeholder="LastName">,
2: <input type="submit">
}
There will likely be some other JavaScript jargon in there, but this is the meat. When you do:
const output = {
name: elements.name.value,
lastname: elements.lastname.value,
};
There is no value inside of the elements object called name or lastname. It is instead 0 and 1. So the way we would change our output would be:
const output = {
name: elements[0].value,
lastname: elements[1].value,
};
This is not the same as accessing an array, because we are accessing elements at the keys of 0 and 1. The final step would be adding this into your code. I took the liberty of removing the semi-duplicated code (where you create the HTML and add it to the page), because all you have to do is call refresh() from within the form submit listener and then when it checks again, you would then see conceptually how local storage works. Note: if you call refresh from within the HTML listener, the listener should not be inside of the refresh function because it will just slap on a second listener, which means the next time you try submitting it will be trying to submit multiple times!
Here's what the code would look like with these updates. Be warned, the code will not work in a StackOverflow code snippet, since there is not access to local storage. If you want to test it briefly, I would suggest using codepen.io, which lets you easily run HTML, CSS, and JS as well as allows you to have access to local storage.
function refresh() {
const result = document.getElementById("myresult");
const saved = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("save"));
if (saved) {
const t =
`<table>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>LastName</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>${saved.name}</td>
<td>${saved.lastname}</td>
</tr>
</table>`;
myresult.innerHTML = t;
}
}
const form = document.getElementById("myform");
form.addEventListener("submit", e => {
e.preventDefault();
const {
elements
} = form;
console.log(elements);
const output = {
name: elements[0].value,
lastname: elements[1].value,
};
console.log(output);
localStorage.setItem("save", JSON.stringify(output));
refresh();
})
/* CSS to help with displaying the table*/
table, th, td {
border: 1px solid black;
}
th, td {
color: black;
}
<form id="myform">
<input placeholder="Name">
<input placeholder="LastName">
<br>
<input type="submit">
</form>
<div id="myresult">I added the div element here, but myresult may be a different tag than this</div>
This is probably a dumb question but in order to use the jQuery ($), all I have done is put it in
You do not use jQuery in your code anywhere. Are you talking about when you select the form element and use .addEventListener? Make sure that you remove the use of form.addEventListener(...) from inside of the function refresh. The only connection is that you call refresh() from inside the submit event for your form.
What I meant is that the second part of the code that is not in the function, where is that? In my code, the "submit" button is clicked for the form. This takes the user to another page, where a table is created. This is where the refresh button is, and when they click "refresh", the table should appear. However, I don't necessarily need the "refresh" button, if the refresh function happens as soon as "submit" is created, that is better, in fact.
I moved the form.addEventListener(...) to after the function refresh because if you call refresh() from inside of the form.addEventListener(..., e => {}); callback, then we just have to move that event listener to after our refresh function (or before really, just not inside) so that another event listener isn't attached to our form element (the way your original code was setup, if we ran refresh() twice, then when we submit to the form element, that code would run twice)
But when I call the refresh function, how does that part get called?
The only place you need to call refresh() is at the bottom of your event listener for form submission. We don't need that function to run unless the form has been submitted at least once. This could definitely be update to then take in data from a server, but this is a good start.

Le Vikariatsmünzen del Palatinato e della Baviera furono dei particolari tipi di talleri coniati dai principi elettori del Palatinato e della Baviera durante la loro reggenza come vicari imperiali, cioè tra la morte di un imperatore e l'elezione del suo successore, per commemorare la loro reggenza dell'impero. Inizialmente tale privilegio venne concesso al solo Palatinato, ma col crescere dell'importanza della Baviera dal 1657 tale privilegio venne concesso anche all'elettore bavarese.
Storia
La dignità imperiale del Sacro Romano Impero della nazione tedesca non era ereditaria. Tra il periodo dalla morte dell'imperatore all'incoronazione del suo successore, la Bolla d'oro emanata dell'imperatore Carlo IV dal 1356 aveva decretato l'istituzione del vicariato imperiale da concedersi a due principi elettori. I conti palatini del Reno condivisero tale incarico con i principi elettori di Sassonia. Alla morte dell'imperatore, l'elettore del Palatinato ricopriva l'incarico di amministratore dell'Impero per le aree della Svevia, della Franconia e della Renania sino alla nomina del nuovo imperatore. I vicari imperiali, da statuto, potevano inoltre disporre delle insegne e di tutte le proprietà e diritti imperiali.
Secondo un'antica usanza, i vicari erano soliti coniare in questo periodo delle Vikariatsmünzen, ovvero delle monete commemorative della loro reggenza dell'impero.
Nel 1623 il conte palatino perse il privilegio dell'elettorato a favore del duca di Baviera, ottenendo in cambio delle compensazioni territoriali. Malgrado ciò, le disposizioni per il passaggio dell'elettorato alla Baviera non avevano definito chiaramente chi fosse autorizzato ad esercitare il ruolo di vicario imperiale. Di conseguenza, alla morte dell'imperatore Ferdinando III del Sacro Romano Impero nel 1657, si aprì una disputa tra la Baviera ed il Palatinato per la contesa del titolo vicariale. Un problema ancora più grave si pose alla morte dell'imperatore Giuseppe I del Sacro Romano Impero nel 1711 dal momento che l'elettore Massimiliano II Emanuele di Baviera, che aveva combattuto al fianco della Francia nella guerra di successione spagnola, era stato cacciato dal suo paese nel 1704 e pertanto i suoi diritti erano stati trasferiti all'elettore palatino Giovanni Guglielmo. Dopo la pace di Rastadt, Massimiliano Emmanuele di Baviera ottenne la restituzione dei propri privilegi. Nel 1724, per porre fine ad ogni contesa, venne firmata la Wittelsbacher Hausunion, un contratto sottoscritto il 15 maggio di quell'anno secondo il quale veniva stabilito che l'elettore palatino e bavarese, entrambi della casata dei Wittelsbach, avrebbero esercitato congiuntamente il vicariato imperiale. Come previsto dal concordato, dopo l'improvvisa morte dell'imperatore Carlo VI, gli elettori Carlo Alberto e Carlo Filippo, il 30 ottobre 1740, annunciarono insieme la gestione del vicariato imperiale, fatto che portò ad ogni modo alla protesta degli stati protestanti dell'Impero. Il contratto sottoscritto internamente alla casata dei Wittelsbach nel 1724, infatti, non era stato riconosciuto né dall'imperatore né dalla dieta imperiale.
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Carlo VII il 20 gennaio 1745, l'elettore Massimiliano III Giuseppe di Baviera acconsentì ad accedere da solo al vicariato imperiale dopo essersi consultato col cugino Carlo Teodoro del Palatinato. Nel 1750 venne determinato, al fine di evitare ulteriori future controversie, che la Baviera ed il Palatinato avrebbero esercitato il vicariato imperiale alternativamente, ma nel 1777 quando la linea della Baviera si estinse, il Palatinato rimase l'unico titolare del vicariato imperiale.
Le monete
Le monete vicariali del Palatinato e della Baviera sono molto più rare rispetto alle monete del vicariato in Sassonia dal momento che gli elettori sassoni, molto più ricchi di miniere d'argento, potevano permettersi coniazioni commemorative in gran numero.
Le monete del vicariato vennero coniate con varie denominazioni in oro e argento dal 1612 al 1792. Sul retro mostravano principalmente l'aquila imperiale con le insegne in petto del principe vicario e la legenda PROVISOR ET VICARIUS o simili.
Queste le monete emesse per il Palatinato e la Baviera:
Giovanni II del Palatinato-Zweibrücken
Vikariatsmünzen del 1612
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Rodolfo II del Sacro Romano Impero il 20 gennaio 1612, Giovanni II del Palatinato-Zweibrücken, reggente del Palatinato, venne nominato vicario imperiale insieme a Giovanni Giorgio I di Sassonia. Il 13 giugno 1612 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Mattia d'Asburgo.
Emissioni nominali: Reichstaler
Le monete del vicariato mostrano sul fronte il profilo corazzato dell'elettore palatino. Sul retro si trova il simbolo araldico imperiale dell'aquila a due teste con in petto lo stemma del Palatinato affiancato alle insegne vicariali.
Carlo I Luigi del Palatinato e Ferdinando Maria di Baviera
Vikariatsmünzen del 1657 e del 1658
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Ferdinando III del Sacro Romano Impero il 2 aprile 1657, Carlo I Luigi del Palatinato venne nominato vicario imperiale assieme a Giovanni Giorgio II di Sassonia ed al cugino Ferdinando Maria di Baviera. Il 18 luglio 1657 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Leopoldo I d'Asburgo. Nel 1623 il conte palatino aveva perso il proprio elettorato a favore dei duchi di Baviera. Nel 1648 gli era stata restituita la dignità elettorale che però condivideva nell'esercizio del vicariato imperiale coi cugini.
Emissioni nominali del 1657 (Palatinato): 1 ducato, Reichstaler, 1⁄2 batzen
Emissioni nominali del 1658 (Palatinato): 1, 1/2 ducato, Reichstaler, 1⁄2 batzen
Le monete del vicariato di Carlo I Luigi del Palatinato mostrano sul fronte il profilo dell'elettore del Palatinato. Sul retro si trovano lo stemma del Palatinato e le insegne vicariali sotto un elmo. Esiste a tal proposito un'altra tipologia della medesima moneta coniata nel 1657, le quali differiscono per la presenza di un'iscrizione esplicativa sul retro.
Emissioni nominali del 1657 (Baviera): 1 ducato, Reichstaler, 1⁄6 tallero, 1⁄9 tallero
Le monete del vicariato di Ferdinando Maria di Baviera mostrano sul fronte la figura dell'elettore di Baviera inginocchiato nell'atto di offrire il suo globo alla figura di una Madonna con Bambino, protettrice della Baviera. Ai piedi dell'elettore si trova lo stemma della Baviera. Sul retro si trovano delle iscrizioni esplicative per la coniazione della moneta.
Giovanni Guglielmo del Palatinato
Vikariatsmünzen del 1711
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Giuseppe I del Sacro Romano Impero il 17 aprile 1711, Giovanni Guglielmo del Palatinato venne nominato vicario imperiale insieme a Federico Augusto I di Sassonia. Il 12 ottobre 1711 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Carlo d'Asburgo.
Emissioni nominali: 5, 4, 2, 1 ducati, 1⁄4 tallero, 2⁄3 di tallero, 1⁄6 di tallero
Le monete mostrano sul fronte il profilo dell'elettore del Palatinato. Sul retro si trova il simbolo araldico dell'aquila imperiale a due teste con in petto le insegne coronate del Palatinato e dell'incarico vicariale.
Carlo III Filippo del Palatinato e Carlo Alberto di Baviera
Vikariatsmünzen del 1740
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Carlo VI del Sacro Romano Impero il 20 ottobre 1740, Carlo III Filippo del Palatinato e Carlo Alberto di Baviera vennero nominato vicari imperiali con Federico Augusto II di Sassonia. Il 14 gennaio 1742 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Carlo Alberto di Wittelsbach.
Emissioni nominali (Palatinato): 1, 1/2 ducato, Reichstaler, 1/2, 1/4 di tallero
Emissioni nominali (Baviera): 2, 1 gulden, 1 ducato, Reichstaler, 6, 3 kreuzer
I due elettori mostrarono una certa unità nelle coniazioni, con una sola variante nel fronte delle monete che potevano mostrare alternativamente o i mezzi busti corazzati dei due elettori appaiati oppure il volto di un solo elettore a seconda dello stato di emissione. Sul retro, su tutte le monete si trova il simbolo araldico dell'aquila a due teste imperiale con in petto le insegne del Palatinato e della Baviera e quelle vicariali.
Carlo Teodoro del Palatinato e Massimiliano III di Baviera
Vikariatsmünzen del 1745
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Carlo VII del Sacro Romano Impero il 20 gennaio 1745, Carlo Teodoro del Palatinato e Massimiliano III di Baviera vennero nominati vicari imperiali insieme a Federico Augusto II di Sassonia. Il 13 settembre 1745 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Francesco Stefano di Lorena.
Emissioni nominali (Palatinato): Reichstaler (solo 12 pezzi)
Emissioni nominali (Baviera): 1 ducato, 6, 3, 1 kreuzer
Le monete mostrano sul fronte il ritratto di profilo di Carlo Teodoro del Palatinato o di Massimiliano III di Baviera a seconda dello stato di emissione. Sul retro si trova il simbolo araldico dell'aquila a due teste imperiale con in petto le insegne del Palatinato o della Baviera con quelle vicariali, a seconda dello stato di emissione.
Carlo Teodoro di Baviera
Vikariatsmünzen del 1790
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Giuseppe II del Sacro Romano Impero il 20 febbraio 1790, Carlo Teodoro di Baviera (elettore del Palatinato e di Baviera dopo la morte di Massimiliano III di Baviera senza eredi) venne nominato vicario imperiale insieme a Federico Augusto III di Sassonia. Il 30 settembre 1790 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Leopoldo d'Asburgo-Lorena. Essendo che i due elettorati erano uniti in unione personale nella persona di Carlo Teodoro, egli mantenne comunque due emissioni diverse della monetazione vicariale nei due stati da lui amministrati.
Emissioni nominali per la Baviera: 3, 2, 1 ducato, Konventionstaler, 1/2 tallero, 20, 10 kreuzer
Emissioni nominali per il Palatinato: Konventionstaler, 1/2 tallero, 20, 10 kreuzer
Le monete mostrano sul fronte il ritratto a profilo di Carlo Teodoro, mentre sul retro si trova il simbolo araldico dell'aquila a due teste imperiale con in petto le insegne della Baviera e del Palatinato con al centro quelle vicariali.
Vikariatsmünzen del 1792
Dopo la morte dell'imperatore Leopoldo II del Sacro Romano Impero il 1º marzo 1792, Carlo Teodoro di Baviera venne nuovamente nominato vicario imperiale insieme a Federico Augusto III di Sassonia. Il 5 luglio 1792 a Francoforte sul Meno venne eletto il successore al trono imperiale nella persona di Francesco d'Asburgo-Lorena.Essendo che i due elettorati erano uniti in unione personale nella persona di Carlo Teodoro, egli mantenne comunque due emissioni diverse della monetazione vicariale nei due stati da lui amministrati.
Emissioni nominali per la Baviera: 3, 2, 1 ducato, Konventionstaler, 1/2 tallero, 20, 10 kreuzer
Emissioni nominali per il Palatinato: Konventionstaler, 1/2 tallero, 20, 10 kreuzer
Le monete mostrano sul fronte il ritratto a profilo di Carlo Teodoro, mentre sul retro si trova il simbolo araldico dell'aquila a due teste imperiale con in petto le insegne della Baviera e del Palatinato con al centro quelle vicariali.

Newbie here
July 24, 2007, 01:27 PM
I've been reloading for a few years and now I want to take shooting to a higher level. I want to start hunting but not really for sport, rather for food. It is a sin to kill for food. Now, let's say I go deer hunting and bag me a nice size deer. What do I do with the body? Where do I take it to clean up for food?

It is a sin to kill for food?
I'm confused...
July 24, 2007, 01:33 PM
" It is a sin to kill for food." better edit that to make it right, or you'll be finding yourself without many friends.
You can process your deer in your garage if you want. But, a lot of folks take them to be processed and pay a fee.
Get a book on the subject and hunt with a more experienced friend who can help you out. It'll be a better hunt for you that way...Sinner!
July 24, 2007, 01:49 PM
I take mine to a deer processing center, they charge 70 bucks and they'll chop it up anyway you want. burger, stew meat, steaks, roasts, anything. there are signs all over the place advertising that service during deer season.
July 24, 2007, 02:12 PM
A SIN???? Actually, that's the reason man has ALWAYS killed meat, the ethical reason, for food. Sure, we kill pests, but food is the MAIN reason to actually kill. I can go sit in a deer stand and watch the wildlife for all the other reasons to hunt, but I butcher and eat the deer and birds I shoot. Only things I've ever killed other than to eat are a few snakes, coyotes, and a few feral wild dogs and I've sometimes even ate the snakes.
I butcher my own, but there are plenty of meat houses that will butcher for you. You need to dress it in the field, by that I mean gut it from neck to butt. I even grind and stuff my own sausage, but you can have sausage made for a price. I can BUY meat at the store, not really economical to have sausage made, but I don't think cut and wrapping costs all that much. But, I grew up helpin' my grandpa and have never taken a deer to a meat house for butchering. I have had sausage made, about 5 years ago last, was $1.10 a pound NOT smoked, but price included the pork mixed with it. I smoked it myself. My wife finally got me a good grinder/stuffer for Christmas. No longer need to get raped for sausage. :D

Typo, guys, typo. Got his tongue wrapped around his eye-tooth; couldn't see what he was saying. Cool it.
Somebody explain about field-dressing. I'm sorta busy.
:), Art
July 24, 2007, 02:20 PM
Field dressing....cut from **** to neck through the sternum, reach in with your hand, grab all the goodies and pull 'em out. It's fun, really. They say, happiness is a warm gut pile...
July 24, 2007, 02:21 PM
Okay, can't say the anatomical name for the hole, the one they have no problem printing in anatomy books, but you get my drift. Be careful not to cut any gut or stomach and make a mess. :D
July 24, 2007, 02:26 PM
There is no "sin" killing for food.
July 24, 2007, 04:48 PM
Go to store - buy stuff called hamburger...... :)
July 24, 2007, 06:09 PM
For a bit on how to dress out a deer:
Feel free to google "how to field dress a deer" for other instructions and tips.
After you field dress it take it to a butcher or processor and tell them how you want the meat to be packaged. Find a butcher that will do it before you shoot a deer. This last year the prices seemed to range from about $60-120 as starting prices- this is in Texas. If you have sausage made they will charge you per pound for the added fat (pork), same way for hamburger if you have them add fat. Having the meat cut for jerky is different than having it made into jerky, so be clear about what you want (having it made into jerky is more expensive).
July 25, 2007, 04:24 PM
Hang it on a gambrel, peel the hide, and remove the guts. (I like to hang mine over a large waste barrell with some strong lawn and leaf bags so I can cleanly haul the guts away afterward). Then, extract the back straps and tenderloins. Carry the rest to the processor and tell him you want spicy sausage (links and bulk).
Research the processors in you area. Make sure you get your processed deer back! Don't take it somewhere that throws everything together, pulls your order, then calls you the next day to pick up. Otherwise you might end up getting some adrenalin pumped meat that was run ragged all day by dogs before it was shot. (If you live in an area that allows dog driving)
August 7, 2007, 08:39 PM
Guys, it was a typo. Geez, this is a tough crowd. What I meant to type was, UNLESS IT'S FOR FOOD, IT'S A SIN. Meaning, I don't believe in hunting for sport. What I kill, will be eaten.
Funny thing, I went to my local reloading supply shop the other day. Guy there recommended that I join a shooting club (since I reload so often on such a regular basis), I told him that I wanted to start hunting, he said, "I guess you want to be like everybody else, wasting time". Meaning, there ain't to much to hunt down here in Charlotte, North Carolina. lol
August 7, 2007, 08:52 PM
Well, you have to hunt around there? :D Do some research, find out where the good areas are and how much out of state licenses are if it's out of state. Why not start out with small game, squirrel and rabbits? There are more places to find good small game hunting and they're tasty, fried, in a stew, or with dumplings. Don't forget feral hogs, GREAT for the bbq pit. :D Don't have to be just deer. Don't know about NC, but Texas has a lot of good, cheap hog hunting and it's year around. Heck, I'd rather have pork than venison anyway....or both for the sausage.
BTW, I gut the deer in the field and leave the pile for the coyotes and bobcats. They really appreciate it. :D

I'm goingto stick my neck out here a little and propose something that I'm sure will be really unpopular. Keep in mind I'm not doing this to start a fight. I'm going to say this because I believe it.
There is no sin in killing an animal, period.
Hunt for sport or sustenance. It is good.
I know people that hunt all types of vermin and varmints. It's OK.
Others hunt birds for their feathers, and moose for their racks. It's OK.

Advice on dressing a deer: Bring a buddy and befriend a butcher. It's a lot easier with 2 people, especially if he's a big sucker, and people who don't know how to cut up a carcass can absolutely ruin the meat (ask me how I know).
August 7, 2007, 10:26 PM
I have to disagree with you, taking the life of a moose just for its rack is unethical (in my opinion; we are each entitled to our own). To me it is the same thing as killing a elephant for its tusks, it is disrespectful to the natural world, and wasteful.
I also believe that it depends on the game which you are hunting, for instance, I DO shoot coyotes and don't eat them. However I keep the pelts, claws, and use the carcass for bait. This even conflicts with my beliefs somewhat. I justify it for the protection of my livestock, as well as the fact that they have an astonishing replenishment rate (you need to kill 70% of the population every year to sustain a decrease in over all population) and large #'s to begin with.
I DO NOT shoot bobcat, fox, wolves, fishers, or any other such predator which don't share the large population numbers, even though they can effect my livestock.
I do enjoy hunting a great deal, and believe that it is a great activity. I just like to see people understanding their actions when taking the life of an animal and do that animal justice by using it for all it offers.
Again, this beautiful country of ours allows us to share humble opinions with each other, while respecting everyones views whether we agree with them or not.

First you need a place to hunt deer. Let's assume that you have a place to hunt. Next besides firearms and so forth, if you get a deer you need to decide before hand whether or not you will process (ie cut the meat up) yourself or have someone else do it. Let's assume you want someone else to do it?
Call around your area and find a butcher that does deer processing. It will often be a small meat place rather than some big operation. Make a decision to have them do it... ask price. I pay $40 I believe and they cut it up pretty much the way I want it (hamburger, chops, tender loins, steaks etc.). If you are not used to deer meat, I'd get at least half of it in hamburger and have them add pork fat. The tenderized deer steaks aren't bad. Some make sausage, but you generally have to pay extra for that. The processor will wrap the meat in paper or plastic and often freeze it for you.
Check with your fish and game deparment web site for diagrams on field dressing a deer. Many states have a diagram which explains it pretty well. Not hard and not that messy. All you need is a sharp knife and a basic knowledge of mammal anatomy. Deer, rabbit, squirrel.... all the same, just a matter of scale.
After this, all you need to do is see the deer and shoot it. Good luck.

<<I've been reloading for a few years and now I want to take shooting to a higher level.>>
<<It is a sin to kill for food.>>
No my son.
If Charlton Heston (Moses) parted the red sea with a walking stick. Just think what I can do with a rifle.
August 8, 2007, 05:18 AM
Stover, those are good points and understandable. However sinful and unethical are two different things.
The moose that I've seen taken for their headgear have all had their meat donated. I would not consider that a waste or truly unethical. I have also smelled rotting animals at the weigh station that were too big to get out of the woods in a timely fashion and were rotting.To say it was unethical or sinful is not a step I would take.
I do not believe that killing an animal without eating it is sinful/unethical because I don't eat everything I kill. I like to have some ducks mounted. This precludes butchering.
My reason for posting what I did is that I don't feel it's the correct thing to do, to demonize a particular aspect of hunting and to call it sinful because it disagrees with a belief held by someone new to the hunt.
August 8, 2007, 07:31 AM
I agree, as long as the meat is being used (it doesn't need to be you using it), it is not unethical. I for instance, am not a huge fan of eating Geese, however my buddy is, and I love shooting them. So I give the meet to my buddy. Earlier you didn't mention donating the meat from the moose, that would actually make it more ethical (giving to the needy).
Good luck with your hunting endeavors!

I cultivate vegetables for sport, and the occasional trophy cucumber.
But I hunt for food. Therefore, I am starving to death. Hunting is a lot harder than the anti-hunters want you to believe.
I also could use help. Or a trip to someplace that gets a bit more rain. Or both.:)
My premium tag drawing didn't work out so well. I drew a deer tag that lets me hunt in Los Angeles and Orange County. Maybe next year...
August 8, 2007, 04:55 PM
Is there a PETA compound in the county? Might be pretty good hunting around there. :D
August 8, 2007, 05:05 PM
Orange County is redder than most red states. I grew up there.
LA? Hell, around here when someone asks about Mexico City we say, "Mexico City is a lot like LA, except there are more Mexicans in LA." Mexican soccer dad culture is not as squeamish as our soccer mom culture. They'll eat anything with meat on it, and they've got ways to make it taste great! Ever had Birria? Menudo?
PETA isn't all that much of a presence in either place. You're thinking of the other end of the state.:D
It's just that most of the old orange groves, bean fields and cattle ranches that covered the area when I was a kid have been sold and developed as subdivisions. Not a lot of deer or habitat, but plenty of people with extra money for rifles.

'Open Season' ** 102706
Movie Review (2006)
The Work = **
'Open Season' is the latest of the never-ending string of CGI animal cartoons ('Madagascar', 'The Wild', etc.) I should have known I was in trouble when there were previews for not one but two CGI penguin movies ('Happy Feet', 'Surfs Up'.) 'Open Season' is not so much a bad movie, as a bland one. I mentioned in my last review ('The Devil Wears Prada') that I was not in the target audience for that film and here with 'Open Range' I am out of the target audience again.
The film follows the adventures of Boog the Bear (Martin Lawrence.) Boog is not your ordinary bear (surprise, surprise) he lives like house pet: sleeping in a garage and watching wheel of Fortune. By day he performs for the families in his local community under the supervision of his caretaker Beth (Debra Messing.) Boog’s happy existence is thrown into a topspin when Boog does a passing favor for a hapless dear named Elliot (Ashton Kutcher.) Elliot turns out to be a bundle of trouble and gets Boog tranquilizer darted and booted out into the wilderness. Stuck in the woods, Boog and Elliot try to make their way back to town and encounter a host of wildlife characters along the way.
Some scenes in 'Open Season' work well but there were many passages that didn’t. If the film had been trimmed down to say an hour or 45 minutes this probably would have been a hysterical little cartoon. I saw the film in a theater packed with kids and I was surprised at how many stretches there were with little laughter. When scenes did work 'Open Season' proved to be quite entertaining such as when Boog gets drunk on sugar. His confrontation with Elliot the day after his binge was pretty funny too as it played out backstage at one of Elliot’s performances for the locals.
'Open Season' has a surprisingly bland look throughout much of the film. Some wide shots of the wilderness are pretty but for the most part the movie is unremarkable in its appearance. More problematic were the character designs
which just didn’t do it for me. While Boog and Elliot look appealing the humans have a pretty unappealing look to them. I can’t put my finger on what exactly is missing from the characters and the look of the movie as a whole but whatever it is makes 'Open Season' just seems kind of flat.
Look, I realize I am the last person that should be criticizing animation. My animation on this site is worse than anyone involved in the 'Open Season' would do on their worst day. That being said, I couldn’t help my reaction. Three directors are credited on the film: Roger Allers, Jill Culton, and Anthony Stacchi. I don’t know how much involvement they had in the overall film but Allers at least co-directed The Lion King so he certainly knows how to make a winning film. (Actually I guess it depends what would qualify a film as “winning” because so far 'Open Season' has done gangbusters at the box office.)
There are some cute moments and some scenes that work but on the whole I just can’t recommend 'Open Season'. Lawrence and Kutcher do what they can with the roles and are actually pretty good but the movie feels overlong and just kind of blah. There are several other celebrities who lend there voices to characters but most are indistinguishable save for the always on Patrick Warburton. I loved Boog drunk and the way he was so into Wheel of Fortune. I liked the look of the character and the way the his fur bounced and moved. If other characters had as endearing a look as Boog the film would have been more enjoyable. The only other standouts were the rabbits who were often treated as non-entities that were not so much preyed on as bowled over and ignored. Not recommended.

How Much Does A Trophy Truck Weigh?
There are There are many different types of trophy trucks. They range in power, weight, and performance depending on the application i.e. the race. Some are designed to handle dunes. Some need to be lighter and others heavier. But overall how much does a trophy truck weigh?
Others are specifically designed for whatever terrain you can imagine. There is no one single dominant design for all builders to base their specs off. There are generally very few requirements they must adhere to and this give builders limits based only on imagination.
What exactly is a trophy truck?
Also known as a Baja truck or a trick truck it is basically a tall F1 racing car but designed to go as fast as it can off road. They design the suspension to handle bumps and give the driver maximum control.
How Much Does A Trophy Truck Weigh
There are no restrictions on power unless specifically stated. 24 inch travel suspension and a max of 800+ horsepower V8 engines are the norm. Gas powered engines must be naturally aspirated i.e. no turbochargers or superchargers. 5.0-6.6 L Turbo diesels are cool though.
So how much does a trophy truck weigh?
5,500-6,000 lbs
That is a general ballpark. But pretty much all trucks are generally in that range. Of course, it’s a sliding scale. And it can vary between racing teams. Trophy trucks generally race with about 900-1,000 horsepower. So if you are whipping around a fluffy little cloud on the dirt that thing will not get sufficient traction to the rear wheels and it won’t be as stable. The power deliver is optimum with more weight pressing on the wheels. But that power delivery is having to move a 3 ton hunk of steel.
Compare a 6,000 lb Chevy Silverado Trophy Truck with 1,000 horsepower topping out at 149 MPH with a 4,162 lb Bugatti Veron with a W12 engine producing 987 HP that tops out at 253 MPH. Both perform excellent in their respective environments and they are similar in price as well.How Much Does A Trophy Truck Weigh, How Much Does A Trophy Truck Weigh?
Another thought is something maybe a little more sane. Well speaking of $700,000 things that perk you up, here is another comparison I could not just pass up. Call me an idiot and I may agree with you. What the hell would I be doing buying a house instead of a world glass mud runner.

BJ Baldwin’s racing trophy truck, where he won a more than one Baja race, weighs a stout 6,100 lbs. He’s a half way decent driver throwing that thing around. Just check out this video showing off his championship truck and him absolutely killing it in a 3-lane wide parking lot of Hoonigan’s garage (It’s a decent channel with good vids worth checking out):
Jimco Racing fastball racing spec trophy truck build comes in at an amazing 5,280 lbs. And that is a truck you can purchase for the same price as a house (see above)!How Much Does A Trophy Truck Weigh
Spec trucks don’t have the same liberties as a trophy truck but they are close. So naturally they should be a little lighter.
But this one is race ready and it has very similar specs to 2WD trophy trucks minus about 500 HP in the power department and some frame shortcomings. It is the best way to get down to Mexico and act like you’re being chased by the narcos.
How Much Does A Trophy Truck WeighThe Mason Motorsports 6100 Spec Trophy Truck gets you going at about 5,400 lbs. race ready. Too bad they don’t give you too many more spec options when browsing. I would like to know base options and upper limits for upgrades.
At least they send it out with a race ready sweet paint job. Check that one off the list Dan-O. This is another Spec TT you can be that is race ready. It should be similar in function to the Jimco as well with maybe some more customizable options at your fingertips.
Trophy trucks are named exactly right. They are trophies. Anybody that owns one would love to show it off to their friends. I know I would. hey cost an arm, leg, and a first born, but if you can get your hands on one it will be moment you will never forget. Engines spawned from the depths of hell move these things because they way over 3 tons. Moving this things is awesome. So now you know how much does a trophy truck weigh.

A(.I.) Messianic Window, (2017)
A project addressing A.I.’s potential oversimplification of human concepts that have evolved to great complexity over time. The stained glass window depicts an AI’s interpretation of the term Messiah.
The context of A(.I.) Messianic Window is the current trend of applying humanistic, cultural and non-universally defined concepts to artificial intelligence. Machines become intelligent by being fed with information about the world. Who is feeding them and selecting this information? What biases and perspectives are being transferred to the machines? Religion is one such nuanced concept, understanding of it differs vastly throughout the world. The term Messiah can refer to different figures or ideas depending on one’s religious belief. Pioneering A.I. research is predominantly situated in the United States, where 70% of the population identify as Christians. To highlight potential western bias resulting from this, Religion will be simplified to mean Christianity, therefore, the term Messiah will be represented by Jesus Christ.
I used artistic impressions of Jesus Christ – circa 15,000 images tagged with “Christ” from Wikigallery – to train a DCGAN over 300 epochs. In the images that were subsequently generated, I obtained an Artificial Intelligence’ interpretation of the term Messiah. These generated images are then placed back into a sacral and didactic presentation format – a stained glass window.
Humans throughout history have learnt from images, from visual data.
AI systems are learning from visual data.
AI systems are generating visual content.
Humans learn from the resulting visual content, the resulting images.
In our post photoshop society, the informative power and authority of images is still of relevance.
CV and machine learning are therefore processes that have the power to inform people in society.
A(.I.) Messianic Window explores the the didactic power of these images.
A(.I.) Messianic Window has been shown at Ars Electronica and NIPS.

Recruiter's Advice, Part II: How to Interview with an Executive Search Firm
Mon, April 03, 2006
CIOBy Jane Howze
When I make speeches about career strategy, one of the first questions I get is how to ensure that your interview with the executive search firm will result in an interview with the hiring company.
First of all, it helps to understand that an executive search firm is paid in advance by the client to recruit for a particular position. The client has very specific requirements, and it is the recruiter’s function to seek out individuals who match the company’s hiring leadership and culture requirements. That said, there are many people who, on paper, are a good fit for a company but do not get past the executive recruiter. Many times, candidates are never given the reason why they do not make it to the next step, other than a vague answer such as, “We did not see you as a fit for the company’s culture.” What happened? The following are some recruiter pet peeves that could eliminate you as a candidate.
1. Basic Manners. One would be surprised to know how many individuals do the following during an interview:
1. Arrive late without calling or apologizing.
2. Answer cell phone calls during the course of the interview.
3. Repeatedly sneak peeks at their BlackBerry during the interview.
4. Arrive smelling like cigarette smoke.
Obviously there are exceptions for the above etiquette breaches, which can be ameliorated by alerting the recruiter in advance that you may be late, have to take an important phone call or respond to an important e-mail.
2. The Spanish Omelet Rule. If you are meeting a recruiter for a meal, follow the recruiter’s lead in ordering. Do not order a Spanish omelet with a side of pancakes if the recruiter is having only coffee. This is a business meeting, not a dining experience. You want to be able to present your qualifications without worrying about spilling food on your clothing or having the recruiter ask you a question when your mouth is full.
3. Alcohol. Many recruiters automatically disqualify an individual who orders alcohol at an interview, even if the interview is after working hours. While I personally do not feel as strongly about this, it is always better to follow the recruiter’s lead, so if he or she does not order alcohol, you should not order alcohol.
4. Religion/Politics. Keep your religious and political views to yourself. It is important that you focus on the position. Anything that takes the recruiter’s attention off your professional experience is a risk (and this includes listing religious and political organizations on your resume), unless you are absolutely sure that your views or interests dovetail with those of the recruiter. If you talk about your religious or political leanings, you run the risk that the recruiter and/or the client may have a different perspective.

Southern Spirits: Ghostly Voices from Dixie Land
Born in Somerville, Tennessee
This is an extract from "Mississippi Narratives Prepared by The Federal Writer's Project of The Works Progress Administration For the State of Mississippi."
Julius Jones was born near Somerville, Tennessee, circa 1846 and was about 93 years old when he was interviewed circa 1939 in Coahoma County, Mississippi. Although it is listed as a "Mississippi" narrative, because that is where it was recorded, this narrative primarily concerns people who lived in and around Somerville, Fayette County, Tennessee (near Memphis, Tennessee), between 1846 and 1863.
Explanatory notes have been added [in brackets]. In addition, some paragraphs have been broken into shorter sections for easier reading and annotation.
I has heared my grandma and grandpa say that my family came from Arkansas. They was brought to Tennessee by slave traders and sold to Mr. Calvin [Jones] and his wife, Miss Mildred Jones, who had three children, all boys, Elic, Tom, and Monroe.
The Joneses lived in Sumerville, Tennessee [This is the interviewer's or transcriber's misspelling of Somerville, Tennessee, a town in Fayette County, in the south-western part of the state, just east of Memphis and a little north of the Mississippi state border] and their big plantation where the slaves all stayed was about a mile and a half in the country. My father, Nat Jones, and mother, Cessler Jones, had five children, Calvin and me was the boys; Lithia, Beckie and Catherine was the girls.
All of us lived in the quarters in log cabins. My grandma Jancy looked after all the children while the grown folks was working in the fields. There was one big room where everybody ate dinner and supper. The breakfast was sent to the field by the children that was big enough to carry it.
I never did see my mother or father except on Sunday. I stayed in the house they did, but they left in the morning for the fields before I was awake, and when they got back I was asleep. They sure did work their slaves from before day till after dark.
We didn't know nothing 'tall 'bout money cause we never seed none. The eating what they give us sure warn't nothing to brag on. Most of the time we didn't have nothing excusing meat and bread and the biggest part of the meat was possums, coons, and rabbits. Course, in the summer time they would give us greens and cabbage out of the big garden what they planted just to feed us. Once my father stold some hog meat. He made us children get under the bed to eat it so nobody could see us if they came by the house. He always fed us under the bed when he got hold of something he didn't want nobody to know nothing bout.
There was an old woman on the place named Charlet. [This is possibly the interviewer's spelling of the name Charlotte.] She did the weaving of the cloth to make our clothes. The cloth the pants was made out of was dyed a dark color. Everything else we wore was just the natural color. Children didn't have nothing to wear no how but shirts, and the women folks wore things that looked like shirts only longer. There wasn't no difference in the cloth they used in the winter and in the summer.
There was a shoemaker on the place. He made every body shoes but they warn't no count like shoes is now. Sometimes we didn't have no shoes to wear. I recollect going hunting once with my young master, and I had to cover my feet with old carpets.
The overseer's name was Bryant. He was the boss, as my master didn't live on the place. He had two or three colored men for leaders, which is the same as drivers. There was about two thousand acres in the place and so many slaves in it that they hired them out to the neighbors.
Bryant was the one what did the whipping. I had an uncle named Abe Jones; he whipped him till his shirt all stuck to his back and my mother had to put grease on him to get the shirt off. What he was getting punished for was telling the slaves they was going to be set free. They took Abe after that to town and locked him up in jail. We ain't never heared of such a thing before as a slave being put in a white man's jail.
That man Bryant gave my mother a beating once when she was sick. Some says that beating caused her death. I can't say that it did and I can't say that it didn't, but I do know, she never got up out of that bed no more till she died and they carried her out.
After she died my father got an ax and went to Mr. Bryant's house to kill him. Somebody at the house seed him and he ran off to the woods and hid. They shot at him as he ran, and the shot hit him in the heel but that didn't stop him and they had to get the hounds out 'fore they could find him. Mr. Whitehead was called the nigger taker. He was the one what got the hounds and caught my father. Old Master didn't let no whipping go on about that till he was right there to see to it that it wasn't given too hard.
That was the only trouble I ever member betwixed the colored and whites. What happened [that was troubling] the niggers didn't get hold of [didn't hear about], and if they did, they better not talk bout it. We wasn't 'lowed to leave the place 'less we had a pass. If we slipped off, the patrollers would sure catch you.
We never worked after dinner on Saturday and sometimes they would give us the whole day.
We didn't have no celebration on Christmas. The children would hang up their stockings in the cabins and get candy and cake put in them. The grown folks were given a day or two to go hunting or fishing. There wasn't no form of amusement, not even a corn shucking.
When folks got married they didn't have no wedding 'cause they didn't have nothing to dress up in. The young master just married them and that's all there was to that.
The biggest thing the niggers done was working congerations. [This is the interviewer's attempted phonetic spelling for "conjurations," that is, conjure or hoodoo.] The funny thing bout that was they could hoo-doo each other but they sure couldn't hoo-doo the white folks.
One young nigger cussed the old conger man [conjure man, root doctor] on the place. The old man reached up and cut off some of his hair, put it in a sack and throwed the sack in the water. That boy acted mighty bigity till that hair started floating down stream. Then he got scared most to death. He ran all day trying to get that hair back. He most went crazy 'fore he got that spell lifted.
[This is an example of working with personal concerns, that is, a bodily link to the subject. The use of hair as a personal concern is common in this sort of spell. Placing the item (usually with at least two other ingredients) in a tied packet (a "sack" in this telling; probably a small muslin tobacco sack or pouch, like a mojo bag) is how the work is magically prepared or fixed. Tossing the sorcerous item into a running river is a form of laying a trick through deployment in water that may either be intended to cause the subject to leave town or to cause a slow "sinking," so that the subject will gradually sicken and die. Additionally, hair, because of its relationship to the head, is specifically used to drive people crazy or give them headaches, thus Julius Jones mentions that the subject "ran all day" (like the river) and "most went crazy" (due to the work having utilized his head-hair.]
Them hoo-doo men could do them things, no doubt 'bout that. I is heared of them putting lizards and scorpions in folks' closets, and somebody in the house would die.
[Unnatural poisoning through agents such as lizards, scorpions, snakes, and spiders is generally a type of "Live Things in You" spell. It is more often contracted through ingestion of the verminous animals than through skin contact, but there are several old accounts such as this one in which the victim was poisoned by sitting in a dressed chair or wearing dressed clothing.]
I was conjured once, and only once, in my life by a man who gave me some whisky in a black bottle. Two minutes after I swallowed that whisky, pains went through me like a knife. I begun running fast as I could cause I knowed right them I had been hoo-dooed. I would have died if a man hadn't told my wife three things to mix together and give me.
[The use of three-ingredient tonics, spiritual cleansing baths, and mojo hands to remove bad conditions is so common in hoodoo as to require little further comment other than to point it out.]
'Fore I took it he said if you ain't conjured this will kill you, but it will cure you if you is. I knowed I was, so I took it and it proved I was cause right then I started getting better and shortly I was well.
If you gets conjured the only way for you to get cured or have the spell lifted is to go to some one who knows more bout it than the one who conjured you.
Some folks wore different things in their shoes to keep the spells off. I don't believe nothing like that could help none.
[Wearing items in one's show is an example of protection against foot track magic. The most common such items worn in the shoe are salt or salt and pepper, a silver dime, the leaves of various plants, and/or inscribed amulets (papers with spiritual writing on them).]
Spirits don't show their self now like they used to. There was a time you couldn't stay in certain houses they bothered you so. My grandmother sent me to the crib one night for to get some corn. When I got nearly there I could hear fiddling and dancing going on. The crib was the place dances had been held.
Mr. Canons' place was next to ours. He had so many slaves and nothing much to feed them on, they all went hungry. Every evening if you passed his graveyard you could hear babies crying, you sure could hear it, and I ain't the only one what could prove it.
You know that boy Julious that drives the dray around town? I raised that boy and he sure has turned out to be a good man. His mother died when he was little and I took him to care for. One day I gave him a sound whipping 'bout something he done wrong. That same night when I went out in the yard, I seed his mother just hovering over his little wagon. I seed her just as plain as if she had never died.
We didn't have no colored churches on the place. We went to the white folks Baptist Church. All that preachers teaching to us was, when you serve your master, you is serving God.
They didn't allow us to hold no services of our own. We did hold them anyway. We would turn all the pots over so we wouldn't be heared. When pots is turned over in a house they catch all the echo and not a sound can be heard outside.
Old Miss taught us Bible every Sunday. I never tended a real service where they had singing and praying and moaners' bench all such as that till I was grown. We didn't have no teachers to learn us to read and write but I sure did learn to read the Bible, how I don't know, but I could read it today or some parts of it, if it wasn't my eyes is too bad for me to see with.
I never seed the like of the poor white folks that lived around us. They was sure bad off. When they moved, they put their belongings in little wagons and had dogs to pull them. That sure was a sight seeing dogs pulling wagons, but they didn't have no other way to get from place to place.
[It is possible that these "poor white folks" of Fayette County, Tennessee were part or full-blooded Native American, as the Indians regularly used dogs to pull loads prior to the wide introduction of horses, donkeys, and mules in America.]
When the war came on, I must have been about fourteen years old.
[The war began in 1860, so Julius Jones was born circa 1846 and was about 93 years old when he was interviewed.]
All the men on the place run off and joined the northern army. I was not old enough to join, so they left me behind with the work to do. We couldn't get much news 'bout what was going on. I didn't know what the white folks heared cause they didn't let no information out. The war had been going on for two years before I seed any real action.
I was ploughing in the field when I got the word to take all the mules and hide them in the swamp that the Yankees were coming. After I got them all securely hid out, I walks down to the big road to see the soldiers pass. When they came along, they stopped and made me go to the swamps and bring them every last one of them mules. That was in the year 1863, at that time the southern folks had the Yankees whipped, and they would have won that war if it hadn't been for a great man by the name of Abraham Lincoln. That man held a council right then. He 'greed to take all the colored people. Said if they fought on his side he would set them all free.
When them niggers heard that free part, they all joined the army. I fought with them for two years and five months. I wasn't turned loose till 1866 we was mustered out in Baton Rouge, Luisiana and discharged in Memphis, Tennessee. We was offered land, but I didn't accept none.
Mr. Lincoln was sure a wonderful man. He did what God put him here to do, took bondage off the colored people and set them free. Mr. Lee sure didn't leave no such record behind him. They tells me before he died he had a mule and a nigger brought before him and he told the folks to protect the mule and to keep the nigger down.
They says there is always some one can take another's place, but they ain't none showed up yet, to take the place of Booker T. Washington. He was a teacher and educator. There ain't no such man as that now. The ones that have come along since are just out for the money in it.
The people now ain't Christians as they should be cause if they were you wouldn't hear about all these here wars whats going on right now.
Soon after the war I joined the church. I got religion while I was in one of those war hospitals. A voice came to me then saying, "you is dying." The Lord spoke and said to me "does you believe?" I answered "I does."
The first meeting I 'tended after that was in a bush arbor. When the call came for moaners, I went to the bench and when I said "amen", I couldn't rise from that seat. To this good day I has kept up with that good Baptist religion.
After I left the army in Memphis, I came on down to Mississippi and got work on a farm near Dublin. Later I moved to Coahoma County. [Coahoma County, Mississippi, like Jones' native Somerville, Fayette County, Tennessee, is an area outlying from Memphis, Tennessee.] It wasn't no trouble finding work to do, and I was treated as nice as if I hadn't fought in the yankee army. The K.K.K. was going round for a while scaring the folks, but after Governor Alcorn got in office, he put a stop to all such as that. [James Lusk Alcorn was the twenty-eighth Governor of Mississippi, from March 1870 to November 1871. He was a "scalawag," that is, a White former slave-owner from the South, who fought in the Confederate Army, but became a Republican Reconstructionist after the Civil War.] The niggers was all allowed to vote. There was colored sheriffs, clerks, and magistrates.
In 1868 I married Minnie Horward. We was living then out here on the Sledge place. We had two girls, Lizzie and Mannie. They is both living and farming here near me. My second wife was named Charlet [possibly the interviewer's phonetic spelling of Charlotte] and I had two girls by her, Maggie and Ella. They is both dead. My third wife was named Emma, my fourth Catherine, my fifth Carrie, and this one you see here is Lula. The best one of all them women was Charlet. She was a better one than the one I got now, though this one does very well. Three of them is dead that I knows of; and I 'speck they is all dead by now 'cept this one. I has only one grandchild. He is living with his ma.
I don't take much stock in this young generation. They don't have right bringing up. My wife reads me out of the paper 'bout them going against their parents and sometimes killing them. Such as that is enough to make you quit reading the paper.
I owns my little home here and I gets a war pension from the government of seventy-five dollars a month. I ain't got nothing to complain of 'cept the sinners, what you can't get to the house of God. I has peace in my heart cause I know when the Lord calls again, I will be ready to answer Him same as I did years ago, "I do believe."

The present invention relates generally to floating point processors, and, more particularly, to floating point compare instructions executed by a floating point processor.
A binary floating point processor (“BFP”) typically has to support operands and results in multiple formats, for example, 64-bit double precision (“DP”) in IEEE coding, 32-bit single precision (“SP”) in IEEE coding, SP in 64-bit DP IEEE coding, or 32-bit SP in Graphics or Non-Java coding. State-of-the-art BFPs typically support mixed precision, i.e., the formats of each operand and the result are independent and can be different. To support all of these and other formats in an efficient manner, the BFP converts its operands during the unpacking stage into a special internal format, and after the final rounding stage the result is converted back into the instruction specific format. The entire computation inside the BFP core is mainly independent of the input and output formats.
One common type of instruction that a BFP executes is a floating point compare instruction with two operands. Oftentimes the two operands have different or mixed floating point precision. As a result, known compare operations are generally performed on the floating point format level, which requires additional steps (e.g., a first step to subtract the operands and a second step to evaluate the difference). That is, the format differences must be detected and eliminated before the compare instruction can be completed as a special type of floating point subtraction operation. This type of instruction execution typically takes five clock cycles to complete, even for the most common cases, which is an undesirable amount of time. Clearly, this slows down the speed of the BFP, which is further undesirable given the fact that the compare instructions are performance critical. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '412c1a30728dfb3a1a8bbbbc2daf4edc95a2710697ec7b5de9620f3945a7bd22'} |

html-parsing: Permissive Parsing of HTML to SXML/xexp in Racket
Neil Van Dyke
License: LGPL 3 Web: http://www.neilvandyke.org/racket-html-parsing/
(require (planet neil/html-parsing:1:=2))
1 Introduction
The html-parsing library provides a permissive HTML parser. The parser is useful for software agent extraction of information from Web pages, for programmatically transforming HTML files, and for implementing interactive Web browsers. html-parsing emits SXML/xexp, so that conventional invalid HTML may be processed with XML tools such as SXPath. Like Oleg Kiselyov’s SSAX-based HTML parser, html-parsing provides a permissive tokenizer, but html-parsing extends this by attempting to recover syntactic structure.
The html-parsing parsing behavior is permissive in that it accepts erroneous HTML, handling several classes of HTML syntax errors gracefully, without yielding a parse error. This is crucial for parsing arbitrary real-world Web pages, since many pages actually contain syntax errors that would defeat a strict or validating parser. html-parsing’s handling of errors is intended to generally emulate popular Web browsers’ interpretation of the structure of erroneous HTML. We euphemistically term this kind of parse “pragmatic.”
html-parsing also has some support for XHTML, although XML namespace qualifiers are accepted but stripped from the resulting SXML/xexp. Note that valid XHTML input might be better handled by a validating XML parser like Kiselyov’s SSAX.
This package obsoletes HtmlPrag.

(html->xexp input) any/c
input : any/c
Permissively parse HTML from input, which is either an input port or a string, and emit an SXML/xexp equivalent or approximation. To borrow and slightly modify an example from Kiselyov’s discussion of his HTML parser:
"<html><head><title></title><title>whatever</title></head><body>\n<a href=\"url\">link</a><p align=center><ul compact style=\"aa\">\n<p>BLah<!-- comment <comment> --> <i> italic <b> bold <tt> ened</i>\nstill < bold </b></body><P> But not done yet...")

web application security best practices
How Does Web Application Security Affect Me?
How Does Web Application Security Affect Me?
Web Application Security is compromised daily and now account for the majority of vulnerabilities on the Internet.
Website weaknesses are a major way that cyber criminals, working with hacking techniques, can steal sensitive data. With this data, nefarious crooks can affect companies and individuals alike; there is little distinction between Fortune 500 Companies and an end user with a credit card. They often just follow the path of least resistance.Web Application Security
Online data theft is not a game. While some hackers will brag about having breached the security of a web application and gained access to sensitive data, the criminals have money, not bragging rights in their cross-hairs. Extortion is sometimes the name of the game. If data can be held at ransom by thieves, depending on how sensitive the data is, they can demand a huge sum of money.
Many ways web application attacks affect companies and individuals. Imagine this “what if” situation. Large Fortune 500 companies were attacked by organized attacks and credit card numbers were taken and held as ransom by organized crime groups. Then, Word came out and Fortune 500 companies were undergoing large-scale audits and security audits. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9475122690200806}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '47053', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:LCGAV5CT7UNHEQTD3JDGLCXTKXDZAGPA', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:4942ca03-554f-45ad-baa4-ea213c89678e>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 11, 11, 19, 21, 58), 'WARC-IP-Address': '198.187.29.21', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:DCYAHCKZSYIGVSLDQHKXUM264RDXSCJC', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:15d7b2c8-cfe2-4821-b7e2-acf5957126c2>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://sitemapx.net/tag/web-application-security-best-practices/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:4bb786e1-2fe0-4b5d-91b3-a3d3f1d95caf>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '213', 'url': 'https://sitemapx.net/tag/web-application-security-best-practices/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-47\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for November 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-37.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.16 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.1-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.5614479184150696', 'original_id': 'bdd0a9951a4a3f5ea889152f5c08fac779337f5d7035ff2f900d788da09dc624'} |
In a large-scale complex system, a management cost of the system is increasing. A manager of the system inputs various commands in order to carry out the management of the system, however, the manager who is not familiar with the system may not become aware that an input command badly influences the system. Then, when the input command is not appropriate, an error occurs in the system, and recovery operations or the like should be carried out for the system.
There is a technique for detecting a trouble by determining whether or not an event that occurs in the system matches definition manually registered in advance. However, according to this technique, when any event that has not been registered occurs, it is impossible to detect the trouble. Therefore, an operator cannot recognize that there is a possibility that the trouble occurs, and may carry out any operation that causes the trouble, erroneously. Moreover, because the event is manually registered, there is a problem that the load of the system manager is large. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'be69ca330eee3642c5b895a36c3a650ccd983d804e74239f0f615b83a73101c8'} |
Episode 480 - In Style!
May 25, 2020
Styles are a very individual thing. Emma Clare did a great newspost on them last week featuring a pic of Sailor Moon that she drew in her own style. The cover image here features my own version. Pit, Tantz, Banes and I had a good long chat about all the different aspects of style and how you develop them.
Topics and Show Notes
For myself, I sort of just fell into my style, it wasn't something I planned. It's just a sort of stylised realism, mostly made up of all the errors, mistakes and incorrect assumptions of how reality and the human body looks and it just comes out as my “style”.
How did you come up with your style and have you had a go at the Sailor Moon challenge?
The musical feature this week that Gunwallace has given us is theme to the Mystic From Wanzerbe - Long, dry, dusty roads, desert adventure, hot winds, mirages and magic shimmering in the heat haze of the hot red sun above. This music is full of the fire and hot spice of far north Africa. It sounds like a techno Tinariwen!

Episode 441 - Cooperation = cool
Aug 26, 2019

Cooperation Vs Competition. For decades the mantra was competition is good: it produces progress and makes things better… Well that's actually false. Competition is what you're forced into as a response to limited resources, so you do what you have to to win, which mainly involves losing everything that doesn't serve that specific objective. Competition is massively harmful to progress in general, it ONLY helps you excel in one small area to massive cost. Think of it in terms of an Olympic sprinter: they become the fastest runner in the world, but to what point? Only the artificial structure of a sporting event… they spend years training, exercising, eating right, wasting a huge portion of their lives, creative, and intellectual potential on that one meaningless goal, and IF they achieve it they might get a bit of fame and money and a footnote in history because someone else will inevitably take their spot. More likely though they won't achieve the goal and instead be forgotten.
Episode 409 - Meaning, Intention, and symbolism
Jan 14, 2019

The topic we discussed in this Quackcast was looking for symbolism, meaning and intention in comics: The English literature approach! Deeper meanings and all that. It's fun to do actually and sometimes you really can hit upon the intentions of the creator, uncover NEW meanings, or just do it to entertain yourself. We used our own comics for an example and talked about things beyond the superficial for a change. For example: Banes' comic Typical Strange is a sitcom set in a video rental store, staffed by a group of characters that make up the cast. Why is it set in a place that is clearly decades out of date and relevance? A video rental place is an anachronism in this time. Is it saying that the characters themselves are stuck in time? It's a sitcom comic so situations often reset or rewind back to the status Quo, so that interpretation would seem to fit… Of course that wasn't Banes' deliberate intention but it's fun to think about that way.
Episode 399 - How many characters is too many?

How many characters is too many? Ensemble casts can be fun and the interaction between characters can be more interesting than the actual plot of a story! But keeping track of characters from the audience point of view or even from the creator's perspective can be hard when you have a lot. Characters can copy each other and just become bad clones or you can forget what some are meant to be doing and create plot holes, audiences can stop caring about some of them or just become really confused. So how do you keep track? I think breaking them into small groups can be one good way to do it… What are some others?

Fear: What are we afraid of? Why do we like or do not like media that may reflect these fears or lead us to new ones? How do such comics inspire fear or similar reactions within us. DO we like horror because we like fear to an extent? This Quackcast is about horror comics, how they work and why we like them. We chat about many of the horror comics on DD.
Episode 387 - History and Pastiche
Aug 7, 2018

In this Quackcast Tantz and I chat about the differences between working with historical settings and the different approaches we take. Tantz's comics (Without Moonlight and Brave Resistance), are both set in a real period of history: Nazi occupied Greece during WW2. Pinky TA is set in the 1920s in an alternative version of history, with Pinky coming from the fictional “Crimean Empire”. Tantz has to keep times, places, and details close to real history while with Pinky TA I can pick and choose the things from history I like the best and create my own idealised pastiche. The advantage of Tantz's approach is that everything is there, nothing has to be invented, just researched and reproduced, whereas my approach involves a lot of creation which slows things down and makes it harder. On the upside Pinky TA is much more flexible, I can easily fit whatever I want into the story, whereas Tantz's comics are bound by the rules of the history she's presenting.
Episode 363 - The Art Of Comments

Jason Moon, author of Crater's Edge, messaged me about some comments he had. He was perturbed about reader reaction to his storyline and wasn't sure how to handle the comments. I told him that those sorts of comments are the very greatest compliment an author can get, because once you get them you've reached the stage where people care about your work enough to get angry: they're invested emotionally in the characters. Yes. It is initially confronting to have someone commenting like that but what you really need to do is step back for a moment and realise what a gigantic compliment it is in actuality. It means you affected them strongly, and that's quite an important thing to be able to do. It doesn't happen much but it's quite a GOOD thing when it does. It's not an easy thing to do to get people that invested. What it really means is you have succeeded as a writer and reached an important milestone. We also have a chat about getting comments in general and also GIVING comments! Hopefully our new comment notification feature will be a boon for this kind of interaction. This week Gunwallace has given us the theme to Kitty Kitty Bang Bang: Multilayered Chinese video-game war anthem with a modern twist! That’s how I’d describe this complex little piece. It’s the final boss battle, you’ve got no spare lives, you’re down to your last powerup and time is running out!

Q:
How to get Heartrate data from Apple's Healthkit?
I am trying to read Heartrate data from Healthkit. I am not able to read that data. I have gone throught this link.
Please help me guys..Thank you.
A:
I managed to read the heart rates from HelathKit using HKSampleQuery. I start reading it from the beginning of the day till 'now'. I also used this link
Here is my function and I call it by pressing a button:
- (void)readHeartRateWithCompletion:(void (^)(NSArray *results, NSError *error))completion {
//get the heart rates
NSDate *now = [NSDate date];
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar autoupdatingCurrentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *components = [calendar components:NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitDay fromDate:now];
components.hour = 0;
components.minute = 0;
components.second = 0;
NSDate *beginOfDay = [calendar dateFromComponents:components];
NSPredicate *predicate = [HKQuery predicateForSamplesWithStartDate:beginOfDay endDate:now options:HKQueryOptionStrictStartDate];
HKSampleType *sampleType = [HKSampleType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeartRate];
NSSortDescriptor *lastDateDescriptor = [[NSSortDescriptor alloc]
initWithKey:HKSampleSortIdentifierStartDate ascending:YES selector:@selector(localizedStandardCompare:)];
NSArray *sortDescriptors = @[lastDateDescriptor];
HKSampleQuery *query = [[HKSampleQuery alloc] initWithSampleType:sampleType predicate:predicate limit:HKObjectQueryNoLimit sortDescriptors:sortDescriptors resultsHandler:^(HKSampleQuery *query, NSArray *results, NSError *error){
if (!results) {
NSLog(@"An error occured fetching the user's heartrate. The error was: %@.", error);
abort();
}
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
NSMutableArray *arrayHeartRate = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
for (HKQuantitySample *sample in results) {
double hbpm = [sample.quantity doubleValueForUnit:[HKUnit heartBeatsPerMinuteUnit]];
[arrayHeartRate addObject:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:hbpm]];
}
if (completion != nil) {
completion(arrayHeartRate, error);
}
});
}];
[self.healthStore executeQuery:query];
}
Here is the function to get the value per minute to heartrate:
@implementation HKUnit (HKManager)
+(HKUnit *)heartBeatsPerMinuteUnit{
return [[HKUnit countUnit]unitDividedByUnit:[HKUnit minuteUnit]];
}
@end
Here is how I call the function in my button action, it reads the heartrates and put them into an UITextView:
- (IBAction)readHeartRateButtonPressed:(id)sender {
[[GSHealthKitManager sharedManager]readHeartRateWithCompletion:
^(NSArray *results, NSError *error) {
NSString *items = [results componentsJoinedByString:@"\n"];
_heartRateText.text = items;
}];
}
Hope it helps.

¿Hablas Español? Parlez-vous Français? Sprechen sie Deutsch?
If you were able to answer any of these questions without hesitation, then congrats, you may be multilingual! If you were under the impression that I was spouting gibberish, there is a good chance that your education is lacking in something I believe is of the utmost importance.
In an age where we are constantly meeting and interacting with people from other cultures, whether in person or through the use of technology, it is important that we have the means to effectively communicate with everyone we come across.
I firmly believe that studying a language other than English should be a foundation of basic education.
How is it fair to expect that everyone we meet will be able to speak English when most people in the world do not? It is our duty to what we can to bridge the gap between cultures by learning another language.
You may be saying to yourself, “I plan to be a teacher in an American school or work at an American hospital, so why do I need to learn a second language? Everyone I work with will be able to speak English.” Wrong! If you are a teacher, at some point you may have a student who was recently adopted from abroad. If you are a doctor, odds are you will have to treat patients that emigrated from other countries and were never able to become fluent in English.
No matter what you are planning on doing as a career, there is a large chance you will run into someone whose primary language is something other than English. If you ever decide to travel abroad, knowing the native language of your destination is a wonderful way to experience the culture even if it is just by talking with the local people.
I wasn’t required to take a second language until college, but I made the choice to study Spanish in high school. Looking back, I feel I missed out on something by not starting Spanish sooner. I was unable to study Spanish long enough to feel comfortable with it. In order to increase students’ aptitude with other languages, they should be introduced to a foreign language in elementary school. I’m not saying we should try to get children to be fluent in Spanish or German by the time they finish elementary school, but if they had some exposure to another language early on, they would be more open to studying a second language later in life.
It is important to study another language if for no other reason than it helps you communicate effectively with more people. Even if you aren’t fluent, you may know enough to get your point across to a native speaker. As you grow up, you will make connections with people from around the world. Taking the time to learn basic Spanish or German is a wonderful way to become responsibly engaged in the world.

Skynd (cách điệu: SKYND) là một ban nhạc rock bao gồm ca sĩ chính, Skynd và nghệ sĩ đa nhạc cụ, Father. Họ đã đi tiên phong trong thể loại nhạc tội phạm và các bài hát chủ yếu dựa trên những cái chết và vụ giết người đáng lo ngại. Họ đã phát hành các bài hát về các chủ đề khác nhau, từ cái chết của Elisa Lam, vụ ngộ sát Conrad Roy, vụ tự sát hàng loạt ở Jonestown, vụ thảm sát trường trung học Columbine, đến những kẻ giết người như Gary M. Heidnik và Katherine Knight.
Lịch sử
Skynd được biết đến với phong cách thanh nhạc đa dạng từ âm vực cao đến âm vực thấp và thường có yếu tố phi nhân tính. Đáng chú ý, Jonathan Davis của Korn cũng là một fan hâm mộ của tội phạm thực sự và đã tham gia cùng Skynd trong bài hát của cô, "Gary Heidnik". Davis cũng xuất hiện trong video âm nhạc.
Buổi biểu diễn đầu tiên của Skynd là tại Electrowerkz vào năm 2019, nơi cô mặc trang phục kết hợp hài hòa giữa xác chết và quần áo theo phong cách Victoria. Người hâm mộ đã được chào đón bằng những cốc Kool-Aid như một đề cập đến bài hát của cô ấy về vụ thảm sát Jonestown. Ngay sau đó, Skynd lọt vào danh sách lọt vào vòng chung kết Heavy Music Awards 2020.
Skynd đã được phỏng vấn bởi The Boo Crew trên tập 90 của podcast Bloody Disgusting, cũng như bởi Ebony Story of Wall of Sound.

Obama's $1.1 million bus: Ashton Kutcher probably isn't impressed
obama-bus-2.jpgBlah, blah, debt ceiling, economy, taxes, blah.
Who cares about all that when President Obama is riding around in a bus that cost more than a million bucks! No, we're not kidding. The Secret Service purchased a bus to protect the Commander in Chief, and according to the AP, it's the size of a cross-country Greyhound bus. The sleek black vehicle even features red and blue flashing lights so you know exactly who is coming 'round the bend.
Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan wouldn't dish on the "design or capability" of the bus, but we're going to make some guesses. We think it's probably made of gold, and just painted black so that it doesn't blind other drivers. Surely it features a flux capacitor, moon landing gear, and a Jetson's-style robot to attend to the Obama family's needs. We'd also bet that inside, it's exactly like the bus from the "Spice World" movie.

In all seriousness, Donovan wants to assure the American public that the bus isn't just for Obama, but it'll be used in the future for other dignitaries. The funds used to pay for the monstrosity were from a special account allocated for transportation and armored vehicles, not from the No Child Left Behind initiative. Oh, and also, there are two of them.
We have to say, Mr. President, this is totally cooler than the Popemobile.
It is not, however, cooler than Ashton Kutcher's $2 million "Two and a Half Men" trailer. You got Punk'd.

Comparison of antifungal activities of gentian violet and povidone-iodine against clinical isolates of Candida species and other yeasts: a framework to establish topical disinfectant activities.
We evaluated antifungal activity as assessed by the contact time in topical use of gentian violet (GV) and povidone-iodine (PI) against Candida strains. A total of 102 yeast isolates were used in this study. A markedly lower minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC)(90) of GV than of PI was detected for all yeast isolates. No remarkable difference in the MICs was observed among the identical strains isolated from different clinical sites for both GV and PI. Although the minimal fungicidal activities (MFCs) of PI were identical for all tested time points, the fungicidal activity of GV decreased during the time course of incubation. These results indicate that, whereas GV is more effective than PI, the topical disinfectant efficacy of GV should be estimated using the MFC(5 min) and not the MIC or the MFC(24 h) for overall prevention of catheter-related bloodstream infections and oral infections. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'd44bd770471a2e4fa1a7d76176698ee178150bf9182069237959d31832749b01'} |

WAYNE COUNTY, et al., )

Defendants-Appellees. )
Before: MOORE and COOK, Circuit Judges; and HOOD, District Judge.*
COOK, Circuit Judge. Plaintiff Roszetta McNeill appeals the district court’s grant of
summary judgment for her employer, defendant Wayne County (the “County”),1 on claims that the
County violated the Americans with Disabilities Act (the “ADA”), the Michigan Persons with
Disabilities Civil Rights Act, and the Michigan Whistleblowers’ Protection Act. McNeill contends
that the County failed to reasonably accommodate her alleged disabilities—namely, her lupus and
thrombocytopenia conditions—and that the County retaliated against her due to those disabilities.
*
The Honorable Joseph M. Hood, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of
Kentucky, sitting by designation.
1
McNeill named as additional defendants Wayne County Executive Robert A. Ficano, the
Wayne County Sheriff’s Office, and Wayne County Sheriff Warren C. Evans. The district court’s
order granting summary judgment for the County dismissed the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office as
a party because it is not a legal entity subject to suit.
No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
Despite these allegations, McNeill fails to demonstrate any substantial limitation in her major life
activities, and thus is not “disabled” for ADA purposes. On that basis, we affirm.
I.
The district court set forth the pertinent facts:
Plaintiff initially was hired by Defendant Wayne County in 1997, and she
resigned later that year. Three years later, in October of 2000, Plaintiff was rehired
by the County as an account clerk, and was assigned to work at a jail facility operated
by the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office. At the time of Plaintiff’s rehiring, the County
was aware that she had been diagnosed with lupus and thrombocytopenia, and that
she was medically restricted from lifting more than 25 pounds. From October of 2000
until June of 2001, Plaintiff was transferred to different work locations within the
same jail facility and reassigned to the afternoon shift at her request, but she resigned
from her employment on June 4, 2001 when the County informed her that it was
unable to accommodate her request to work at a location other than a jail facility.
Plaintiff again was rehired as a County employee on January 14, 2002, in the
position of juvenile detention specialist at the Wayne County Juvenile Detention
Facility. Again, it appears that the County was aware that she suffered from lupus and
thrombocytopenia, and that she was restricted from lifting more than 25 pounds.
Although Plaintiff worked well at the detention facility, she contends that she was no
longer able to remain at this facility after sustaining workplace injuries to her hands
and right knee on October 19, 2003. Rather, because the detention center was a “no
restrictions” facility, and because the County purportedly refused her requests for
placement in a job with the same classification and rate of pay, Plaintiff claims that
she had no other choice but to accept a “medical demotion” to the position of account
clerk.
When such a position became available with the Wayne County Clerk’s
Office in the Lincoln Hall of Justice, Plaintiff was placed in this position on February
23, 2004, where she remained until after this suit was filed. In late July or August of
2005, she was reassigned to work at the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center.
Throughout the period of her employment with Wayne County, Plaintiff has
filed a number of [Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”)] charges,
-2-
No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
and also has commenced at least two prior suits in Wayne County Circuit Court. The
present action followed closely after Plaintiff received a right-to-sue letter from the
EEOC dated June 30, 2005, which in turn was based on an EEOC charge that
Plaintiff filed on or around May 4, 2005. Since commencing this suit, Plaintiff
apparently has filed one or more additional EEOC charges.
Def’s. App. at 247–48.

A.
We review de novo the district court’s grant of summary judgment. See Jones v. Potter, 488
F.3d 397, 402 (6th Cir. 2007). Drawing all inferences in McNeill’s favor, we will affirm where no
genuine issue exists as to any material fact and the County is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c); Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574, 587
(1986). The County bears the burden of demonstrating no genuine issue of material fact, but
McNeill must “do more than simply show that there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material
facts.” Jerman v. Carlisle, McNellie, Rini, Kramer & Ulrich, 538 F.3d 469, 472 (6th Cir. 2008)
(quoting Matsushita, 475 U.S. at 586); see also Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(e)(2) (providing that the non-
moving party “may not rely merely on allegations . . . rather, its response must . . . set out specific
facts showing a genuine issue for trial”).

No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
Among other elements, recovery under the ADA requires a qualifying disability, defined as
“(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more . . . major life activities
. . . ; (B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) being regarded as having such an impairment.” 42
U.S.C. § 12102(2); see also Nance v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., 527 F.3d 539, 553 (6th Cir.
2008) (setting forth the elements required to prevail in a disability discrimination case). The EEOC
describes major life activities as including “functions such as caring for oneself, performing manual
tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning, and working.” 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(i).
To be “substantially limited” in such activities means that an individual is “[u]nable to perform a
major life activity that the average person in the general population can perform” or is
“[s]ignificantly restricted as to the condition, manner or duration under which an individual can
perform a particular major life activity as compared to . . . [an] average person in the general
population.” 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(j)(1). Although the district court agreed that McNeill’s medical
records and diagnoses suggested impairments that “diminished [her] quality of life and restricted her
daily activities to some extent,” Def’s App. at 259–60, the court concluded that McNeill did not
demonstrate ADA disability because she failed to establish that these impairments substantially limit
major life activities. We agree.
McNeill raises two specific challenges, both of which prove unavailing. First, she relies on
her doctors’ diagnoses to argue that her impairments substantially limit major life activities. See 42
U.S.C. § 12102(2). In a June 2005 request for accommodation, McNeill’s primary-care physician,
-4-
No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
Dr. Marc A. Feldman, noted that she suffered physical impairments such as arthralgias, myalgias,
fatigue, and thrombocytopenia. But in the same document, Dr. Feldman expressly stated that
McNeill’s impairments did not substantially limit any major life activity. JA 207. And although her
psychiatrist, Dr. John T. Dziuba, diagnosed her with recurrent depression, he conceded that he was
“unclear” as to whether McNeill had a substantially limiting impairment because he saw her
“infrequently” and could not give a “current assessment based on limited contact.” Pl.’s Response,
Ex. 21. McNeill also produced a May 2001 letter from Dr. James Leisen that diagnosed her with
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and recommended that McNeill not work in “an office environment
that is cold, damp, and drafty” due to her “sensitivity to environmental conditions.” Def’s Mot. for
Summ. J., Ex. 8. But the letter is similarly silent on whether McNeill’s lupus substantially limits any
major life activities.
Although McNeill attempts to rely on these records of physical impairments, without more,
medical diagnoses alone are insufficient to support disability status under the ADA. Toyota Motor
Mfg. v. Williams, 534 U.S. 184, 198 (2002). McNeill presents no concrete evidence that these
conditions substantially limit her major life activities. And even were we to assume that her lupus
causes sensitivity to environmental conditions that affects her ability to work, McNeill fails to allege
or demonstrate that her inability to work in cold or drafty environments precludes her from working
“a class of jobs or a broad range of jobs in various classes.” See Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc., 527
U.S. 471, 491 (1999) (quoting the EEOC’s requirement in 29 C.F.R. § 1630.2(j)(3)(i) that ADA
-5-
No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
plaintiffs allege an inability to work in a “broad class of jobs” if the major life activity at issue is
working); Black v. Roadway Express, Inc., 297 F.3d 445, 452 (6th Cir. 2002) (same). Likewise,
despite McNeill’s assertions that her diagnosed impairments “resulted in a loss of appetite, fatigue,
joint pain and stiffness, restricted movement in her knee and shoulders, difficulty in sleeping, stress,
depression, and an inability to drive, do yard work, or write,” we agree with the district court that
those summary claims are “utterly unsupported by any citation whatsoever to evidence in the
record.” Def’s. App. at 257; see Black, 297 F.3d at 454–55 (concluding that an ADA plaintiff failed
to demonstrate substantial limitation in major life activities where the plaintiff merely presented
conclusory affidavits and reports and internal contradictions existed in the record).
Second, McNeill contends that her eligibility for Social Security disability insurance
(“SSDI”) from 1996 through 2000 constitutes a “record” of a substantially limiting impairment for
ADA purposes. See 42 U.S.C. § 12102(2). But the EEOC emphasizes that “[t]he fact that an
individual has a record of . . . disability retirement, or is classified as disabled for other purposes does
not guarantee that the individual will satisfy the [ADA] definition of ‘disability.’” 29 C.F.R. app.
§ 1630.2(k). This court recently noted, moreover, that “a disability determination by the Social
Security Administration, even if substantiated, would not be controlling [for a determination of ADA
disability].” Thornton v. Federal Express Corp., 530 F.3d 451, 455 (6th Cir. 2008); see also Lloyd
v. Washington & Jefferson College, No. 07-2907, 2008 WL 2357734, at *2 n.1 (3d Cir. June 11,
2008) (rejecting a contention that the “receipt of SSA benefits qualifies as a ‘record of impairment’”
-6-
No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
because the SSA’s definition of disability differs from the ADA’s definition of disability”); Horwitz
v. L. & J.G. Stickley, Inc., 20 F. App’x 76, 80–81 (2d Cir. 2001) (same). Remarking on this
distinction, the Supreme Court compared the two procedures for determining disability and
concluded that an individual qualifying for SSDI could fail to be substantially limited in performing
major life activities under the ADA. Cleveland v. Policy Mgmt. Sys. Corp. 526 U.S. 795, 803–04
(1999). The Cleveland Court also refused to find the SSA and ADA designations of disability
equivalent because the SSA’s procedure for administering SSDI involves a variety of presumptions,
including a list of automatically qualifying impairments. Cleveland, 526 U.S. at 804. These
administrative rules are qualitatively distinct from the ADA’s “more fact-intensive inquiry.”
Horwitz, 20 F. App’x at 81. McNeill makes no effort to distinguish the precedent against her, so
we reject her argument that a record of SSDI benefits controls our determination of ADA disability.
III.
Because neither doctors’ diagnoses nor SSDI benefits suffice to demonstrate that McNeill’s
impairments substantially limit her major life activities, McNeill’s conditions are not qualifying
disabilities under the ADA. The district court properly granted summary judgment for the County
on McNeill’s ADA claims, and likewise properly declined to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over
the remaining state-law claims. See Peters v. Fair, 427 F.3d 1035, 1038 (6th Cir. 2005) (applying
the deferential abuse-of-discretion standard in concluding that the district court need not exercise
-7-
No. 07-2325
McNeill v. Wayne County
supplemental jurisdiction over pendent state-law claims where the court dismissed the federal
claims). We affirm.

Effects of HNK-1 monoclonal antibody on the substratum attachment and survival of neural crest and sclerotome cells in culture.
The sclerotome portion of the differentiating embryonic chick somite becomes infiltrated by neural crest cells prior to its dispersal towards the embryonic axis. This means that sclerotome cells explanted into culture for the purpose of examining their interactions in vitro are contaminated with a proportion of neural crest cells. The purpose of this study was to explore the neural crest cell adhesion epitope recognized by the HNK-1 monoclonal antibody and ways in which this antibody can be used to eliminate neural crest cells from mixed culture by selective cytotoxicity. Immunofluorescence technique, under the conditions used here, indicated that the antibody appeared to stain all the mesenchymal (i.e. neural crest) cells emigrating from pieces of embryonic neural tube in culture. Examination of the effects of HNK-1 suggests that the antibody interacts with substratum-binding sites on the neural crest cell surface. On fibronectin-coated substrata the antibody tended to inhibit neurite outgrowth but left the cells relatively well spread, while on laminin substrata the effect was to discourage both neurite extension and cell spreading, causing cell retraction. These results suggest that the cell surface epitope recognized by HNK-1 influences neurite outgrowth, neurite adhesiveness or both. Failure of cell spreading on laminin suggests interaction with the laminin binding sites on the cell body. Elimination of the crest cells from mixed culture with sclerotome was achieved by culturing the cells in the presence of HNK-1 antibody and complement during the period required for complete cell outgrowth from the sclerotome explant.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'fe0cdae5d2f09c8568ed85f5a34de2ee809b35a9dcc5fc216363d3f6ce3303a0'} |

Cada día que pasa quedan mas y mejor deslindados los campos. No hay ya término medio para los hombres de bien: ó con la revolución, ó contra la revolución. s>El Manifiesto de D. Carlos ha producido un efecto indescriptible en toda Europa. La palabra del magnánimo príncipe que, nuevo Godofrcdo, se pone á la cabeza de los he'rocs cristianos que van á reconquistar la tierra profanada por los sarracenos modernos, ha sido oída con un respeto tan prqfundo y un entusiasmo tan sincero, que no hay ala hora presente un católico en Europa que no vea en D. Carlos al monarca restaurador de la política cristiana.

When thinking of movies made in South Dakota, one film immediately jumps into everyone's mind. But there's plenty of other Hollywood hits that were filmed in our state. Here's a list of some of the biggest movies filmed in South Dakota.
Dances With Wolves: The biggest and most successful movie ever filmed in the state. It made over 400 million dollars at the box office, worldwide, and won a number of awards, including the Academy Award for Best Picture. Most of the film was shot near the Triple U Buffalo Ranch in Stanley County, just outside of Pierre.
Starship Troopers: This one surprised me at first, but just by watching the clip above, you can tell parts of this movie were filmed in South Dakota. The Badlands provided a number of scenes for this 1997 cult classic, which didn't see big box office numbers when it was released, but since, it has gained a large following.
Armageddon: Proving that the Badlands can look like just about anything, a good portion of this movie turns the iconic South Dakota landscape into an asteroid. Armageddon became one of the biggest movies of the '90s and had some major stars attached to it. Bruce Willis played the lead, a young Ben Affleck co-starred, and it launched the career of Liv Tyler, who happens to be the daughter of Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, who scored a big hit on the film's soundtrack with I Don't Want to Miss a Thing.
This list doesn't even scratch the surface of big blockbuster films made in our state. Some others include National Treasure: Book of Secrets, How the West Was Won, Head of State, and countless more.
