Q:
Writing Files in HDFS- Using TextIO API vs Java - BufferedWriter(new FileWriter())
We have a requirement that we need to create files for each and every Employee ID. We used the groupbyKey feature and able to create the data structure.
< ID, Iterable < Employee Objects > > where we converted Iterable < Employee > to List.
Then we created a folder and a file for the Employee ID.
So in < EmployeeID, List < Employee > > object, for each and every row we loop and using BufferedWriter we write data into the file. IS it good enough or we need to use TextIO framework to do the same thing. The question is whether we will get drastic performance improvements using TextIO when compared to BufferedWriter to write data in files each and every row.
Thanks
A:
It is surprisingly difficult to write files in a way that produces well-defined results and no data loss or duplication in case of failures. You can get a glimpse of this complexity by looking at the implementation of the WriteFiles transform, used by TextIO under the hood. So TextIO handles this complexity for you, and I strongly recommend using it, if you can - rather than using hand-crafted code. You probably want the write().to(DynamicDestinations) version.
If you're doing something that TextIO definitely can not do, I still recommend looking at the implementation of WriteFiles to get an understanding of what else needs to be done to make sure your code is resilient against failures.

Q:
Creating a new instance of a class in typescript
I'm trying to create a new instance of a class, with empty values but I'm struggling with the code.
Here's my class file code:
export class MyTimeDefinition {
RequestCodes: Array<RequestCodes>;
BalanceCodes: Array<BalanceCodes>;
ID: number;
Description: {
SelectedLanguage: number,
Values: {
LanguageID: number,
ValueID: number,
Value: string
}[]
};
IsDataLoaded: boolean;
TypeName: string;
}
export interface RequestCodes {
ID: number;
StringValue: string;
}
export interface BalanceCodes {
ID: number;
StringValue: string;
}
and in my component I try to create a new instance of the class like this:
//Create New MyTime-Definition
public createNewMyTimeDefinition() {
let newMyTimeDefinition = new models.MyTimeDefinition();
console.log(newMyTimeDefinition);
}
the result of my console.log is MyTimeDefinition {} how can I create the variable newMyTimeDefinition that has all the attributes of the class and not just an empty object?
A:
You must create a constructor in MyTimeDefinition class where you add some values to the variables inside your class.
Something like this:
export class MyTimeDefinition {
...
//Some other variable
constructor(){
this.mystringvariable = "my string value";
}
}
And, as you will see, when you create a new class intense by calling the constructor the variables of your class will be not empty.

Q:
Uploading File against Lead via REST API
I am trying to Upload the File against Lead via REST API.
My understanding is that I need to use ContentDocument and then create Content Document Link against that Lead.
However, I am unable to upload file using Content Document end point and in docos there is no create endpoint (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/api-explorer/sobject/ContentDocument/get-contentdocument-id)
In simple terms - what would be best way to upload a File against Lead, so it shows itself under Files widget in Salesforce.
Disclaimer: I trailed internet for solution but none seem applicable in my scenario
A:
You cannot directly create a ContentDocument. Instead, you must upload a ContentVersion. The parent ContentDocument will be created for you automatically.
To link the file to an sObject, either set the FirstPublishLocationId field on the ContentVersion to the target record's Id, or query for the ContentDocumentId after insertion (it will be populated by the system) and add one or more ContentDocumentLink records to connect to sObject records.

What motivates health professionals? Opportunities to gain greater insight from theory.
Health care policy-makers and researchers need to pay more attention to understanding the influence of motivation on professional behaviour. Goal setting theory, including two hypotheses - the business case and the pride case - dominates current attempts to motivate professionals. However, the predominance of goal setting theory stifles other approaches to conceptualizing professional motivation. These approaches include other cognitive theories of motivation, such as self-determination theory (concerned with how to use extrinsic rewards that enhance intrinsic motivation), as well as content, psychoanalytic and environmental theories. A valuable opportunity exists to develop and test such theories in addition to possible hybrids, for example, by elaborating goal setting theory in health care. The results can be expected to inform health policy and motivate individual professionals, groups, organizations and workforces to improve and deliver high quality care. |
Development of a health information technology-based data system in community-based hospice and palliative care.
Few hospice and palliative care organizations use health information technology (HIT) for data collection and management; the feasibility and utility of a HIT-based approach in this multi-faceted, interdisciplinary context is unclear. To develop a HIT-based data infrastructure that serves multiple hospice and palliative care sites, meeting clinical and administrative needs with data, technical, and analytic support. Through a multi-site academic/community partnership, a data infrastructure was collaboratively developed, pilot-tested at a community-based site, refined, and demonstrated for data collection and preliminary analysis. Additional sites, which participated in system development, became prepared to contribute data to the growing aggregate database. Electronic data collection proved feasible in community-based hospice and palliative care. The project highlighted "success factors" for implementing HIT in this field: engagement of site-based project "champions" to promote the system from within; involvement of stakeholders at all levels of the organization, to promote culture change and buy-in; attention to local needs (e.g., data for quality reporting) and requirements (e.g., affordable cost, efficiency); consideration of practical factors (e.g., potential to interfere with clinical flow); provision of adequate software, technical, analytic, and statistical support; availability of flexible HIT options (e.g., different data-collection platforms); and adoption of a consortium approach in which sites can support one another, learn from each others' experiences, pool data, and benefit from economies of scale. In hospice and palliative care, HIT-based data collection/management has potential to generate better understanding of populations and outcomes, support quality assessment/quality improvement, and prepare sites to participate in research. |

Greens to start costing policies: Bandt
The Australian Greens' new policy platform will give voters more information on what the party stand for and how they'll fund their ideas, acting leader Adam Bandt says.
Mr Bandt says the minor party wants to go to the next election able to tell voters they have a fully-costed set of policies.
"To date, our policy platform contained a number of specific measures, but we hadn't had the resources or the capacity to have those costed," he told reporters on Thursday.
"Treasury wouldn't cost them for us and there wasn't an independent body that would do it.
"So what we now have is a very strong policy platform that has been voted on and determined by our members by consensus."
Mr Bandt said the Greens would now be going to the next election on the same footing as the two major parties.
"Everyone can ask us the same questions they ask other parties, namely how much will our initiatives cost and where will the money come from?" he said.
"So our updated policy platform, together with the new parliamentary budget office, will allow the Greens to go to the next election as the most economically responsible party out of all the parties contesting the election."
The Greens would be the only party to have the courage to stand up to big business and raise the revenue needed to fund the services that their voters expected, he added.
"We will also be the only party reaffirming those core principles of social justice and looking after the environment and looking after people," he said.
"This isn't about changing direction, it's about paying more attention to making sure the numbers add up."
He also outlined several ways the Greens would raise money, including increasing the mining tax so that it would "actually start raising the money that it should raise".
"We're having a look at how we can give a benefit to small business while making big business pay their fair share," he said.
The party's members had indicated a clear direction on where they wanted the Greens to head, including a universal health care system and making sure everyone had access to good quality education.
"This is going to mean voters will have more information on what the Greens stand for and how we'll fund our policies."

Which came first, the lung or the breath?
Lungs are the characteristic air-filled organs (AO) of the Polypteriformes, lungfish and tetrapods, whereas the swimbladder is ancestral in all other bony fish. Lungs are paired ventral derivatives of the pharynx posterior to the gills. Their respiratory blood supply is the sixth branchial artery and the venous outflow enters the heart separately from systemic and portal blood at the sinus venosus (Polypteriformes) or the atrium (lungfish), or is delivered to a separate left atrium (tetrapods). The swimbladder, on the other hand, is unpaired, and arises dorsally from the posterior pharynx. It is employed in breathing in Ginglymodi (gars), Halecomorphi (bowfin) and in basal teleosts. In most cases, its respiratory blood supply is homologous to that of the lung, but the vein drains to the cardinal veins. Separate intercardiac channels for oxygenated and deoxygenated blood are lacking. The question of the homology of lungs and swimbladders and of breathing mechanisms remains open. On the whole, air ventilatory mechanisms in the actinopterygian lineage are similar among different groups, including Polypteriformes, but are distinct from those of lungfish and tetrapods. However, there is extreme variation within this apparent dichotomy. Furthermore, the possible separate origin of air breathing in actinopterygian and 'sarcopterygian' lines is in conflict with the postulated much more ancient origin of vertebrate air-breathing organs. New studies on the isolated brainstem preparation of the gar (Lepisosteus osseus) show a pattern of efferent activity associated with a glottal opening that is remarkably similar to that seen in the in-vitro brainstem preparation of frogs and tadpoles. Given the complete lack of evidence for AO in chondrichthyans, and the isolated position of placoderms for which buoyancy organs of uncertain homology have been demonstrated, it is likely that homologous pharyngeal AO arose in the ancestors of early bony fish, and was pre-dated by behavioral mechanisms for surface (water) breathing. The primitive AO may have been the posterior gill pouches or even the modified gills themselves, served by the sixth branchial artery. Further development of the dorsal part may have led to the respiratory swimbladder, whereas the paired ventral parts evolved into lungs. |

Q:
Copiar conteudo de uma tabela para outra
Tenho uma tabela, uma chamada "cars" com as colunas
carID | image
outra tabela chamada "pictures" com as colunas
picID | InName
Gostaria de copiar todas as fotos da tabela "cars" coluna "image" para a tabela "picture" coluna "InName"
Tentei seguir um codigo colocado ja aqui , o codigo funcionou sem erro mas o resultado foi:
"Nenhuma linha alterada"
UPDATE picture pc
INNER JOIN cars AS c
ON c.image = pc.ImName
SET pc.ImName = c.image;
A:
Nâo precisa muito para perceber que o código que escreveu não faz sentido para aquilo que deseja fazer.
UPDATE picture pc
INNER JOIN cars AS c
ON c.image = pc.ImName
SET pc.ImName = c.image;
Utilizou o UPDATE sendo que deseja inserir novos registros; fez um JOIN em tabelas não relacionadas (ou pelo menos você não comentou que existe uma chave estrangeira relacionando-as e, se existe, ela foi ignorada no código); fez a condição c.image = pc.ImName sendo que a imagem não existe em picture, então nunca a condição será satisfeita.
Gostaria de copiar todas as fotos da tabela "cars" coluna "image" para a tabela "picture" coluna "InName"
Como você quer selecionar dados de uma tabela e inserir em outra, terá que utilizar o SELECT e o INSERT.
INSERT INTO picture (InName)
SELECT image FROM cars
Isso selecionará todos os registros de cars, apenas a coluna image e salvará na tabela picture. Se não precisar de todos os registros, basta adicionar uma cláusula WHERE no seu SELECT.

Q:
How to use the Rails shopify_app gem with a private API key?
I am trying to use the Rails *shopify_app* gem with a private API key. The documentation for the gem mentions that it's possible to do this but doesn't say how. The instructions are only for a Shopify Partner Account.
For a private api key there seems to be no way of specifying the return url. This results in the following response fragment being sent back:
{"error":"invalid_request","error_description":"The redirect_uri and application url must have matching hosts"}
I've looked around a bit but was not able to find a solution to this. It seems like this should be better documented on Shopify API wiki. I'd appreciate any help with this.

Beauty and the Beast: Differences Between the Movie and the Story
Disney is well known for their interpretations of fairytales. They take influence from the original story and make it their own. This usually means they take out the less than family friendly details and make them suitable for family members of all ages. They also alter parts to make them fit in with their interpretation and to help the story flow a little better.
Beauty and the Beast is no exception to this. The story, first released in the 1740s has been taken and changed slightly in order to create the iconic Disney movie we all know and love.
–
The Spell
In the Disney movie we all know, the Prince was turned into a Beast due to his selfishness and for turning his back on an old lady. In the original story however, the Prince is turned into a beast for refusing to marry an old lady who had helped raise him. This is so he appears as stupid as he is horrible. After being turned into a Beast, a kind fairy took pity on him and shrouded the castle in fog so no one would enter his castle. Everyone surrounding the castle was frozen by the fairy so they wouldn’t share the Princes secret.
Belle’s Family
In the movie, Belle is the only child of Maurice however, in the original tale, Belle has two sisters. The father is also a stay at home father in the novel, wherever he is an inventor in the Disney movie. As well as this, in the movie, Maurice is found by Belle in the woods. In the original story however, the Father dies after a long time of sickness.
The Rose
In the Disney movie, the rose counts the days the Beast has to break the spell, with the petals falling as each day passes.
In the original, the rose is what instigates the curse. When Belle’s father goes away on a business trip and comes across the castle, he picks a rose from the garden in order to keep his promise to his daughter. The beast then tells the father to choose between staying as his prisoner or sending one of his daughters to stay with in his place. Belle feels guilty as it was her request for the rose. She then insists she becomes the Beasts prisoner.
Gaston
Gaston was not a character in the original story. No Gaston means no mob that charge on the castle to try and kill the beast. The original story focused much more on Belle and the Beast and their locations and family.
LeFou
As there is no Gaston, there i also no mention of LeFou in the original story either.
Living Household Objects
In the original story, the servants turned household objects were not there. Instead, in their place were birds and monkeys. The people of the castle were around, however they were frozen as statues so that they wouldn’t escape an tell the world of the Beasts secret.
Love
In the films, Belle and the Beast fall in love over time, however, in the original tale, the Beast hardly talks to Belle. Every night she eats alone and when the Beast proposes to her she rejects him.
In the original story, Belle dreams of a handsome stranger that she falls in love with. During her dreams she asks Cupid what she needs to do for them to be together. He replies with ‘Judge not by thine eyes’. This is a hint that the handsome stranger is indeed the human form of the Beast.
The Big Reveal
In the films, the ending shows the big reveal where the Beast transforms into a handsome Prince. In the original story however, this happens about half way through.
In the story, Belle agrees to marry the beast, but the romantic moment does not change him immediately. It isn’t until the next morning when Belle wakes that she see’s the handsome man from her dreams asleep next to her. The Prince’s mother arrives and thanks Belle for freeing the Prince of his curse, but also states that a merchants daughter could not possibly marry her son. The Princes wakes and tells his mother Belles story. |
Nanodosimetry, the metrological tool for connecting radiation physics with radiation biology.
It is generally accepted that the early damage to genes or cells by ionising radiation starts with the early damage to segments of the DNA, at least, to the greater part. This damage is the result of the spatial distribution of inelastic interactions of single ionising particles within the DNA or in its neighbourhood and is, in consequence, determined by the stochastics of particle interactions in volumes a few nanometre in size. Due to the latter fact radiation damage strongly depends on radiation quality and cannot be described satisfactorily in detail by macroscopic quantities like absorbed dose or linear energy transfer (LET). It can, however, be described approximately by the probability distribution of ionisation cluster-size formation in nanometric target volumes of liquid water (nanodosimetry). One aim of nanodosimetry is, therefore, to measure the radiation induced frequency distribution of ionisation cluster-size formation in liquid water, as a substitute for sub-cellular material, in volumes which are comparable in size with those of the most probable radio-sensitive volumes of biological systems. After a short description of the main aspects of cluster-size formation by ionising particles, an overview is given about the measuring principles applied in present-day nanodosimetric measurements. Afterwards, physical principles are discussed which can be used to convert ionisation cluster-size distributions measured in gases into those caused by ionising radiation in liquid water. In a final section, the probability distribution of ionisation cluster-size formation in liquid water is discussed from the point of view of damage formation to segments of the DNA. |
Reviews from a small country
Dead And Breathing, Theatre Review. Unity Theatre, Liverpool.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *
Cast: Lizan Mitchell, Kim Tatum.
Aside from yourself and your loved ones being healthy and happy, all that you can ever hope for in life is either being part of history, having your name linked to the times you live and have your name roll off the extensive tongue as if attached to a medieval proclamation, complete with booming voice reading out your virtues and perhaps a heroic deed or two; or seeing history made, knowing you were alive when the Earth shattering, the amazing or the downright incredible happened and perhaps seeing someone else have their moment in your company…being witness to the most awesome of performances.
Whichever way you see history, it comes at the most unexpected of times, it hits you between the eyes and reminds you of what it means to be alive and in Chisa Hutchinson’s play Dead and Breathing, that feeling is intensified, brutally chiselled into a statue and giving absolute reverence; for in Lizan Mitchell’s performance as Carolyn, a woman living with stage three cancer and the bitterness of death having had the temerity not to have claimed her crotchety old and cantankerous soul yet, one of the most outstanding moments in Liverpool theatre, certainly in the last ten years, opened up before the Unity Theatre’s audience’s eyes.
Whilst in a very different play, it could not helped be thought that Ms. Mitchell, aided beautifully by Kim Tatum in this particular two hander, had the air of the late, great Jessica Tandy in Driving Miss Daisy, the assuredness of spite, the grip of fear and the tongue of a devil were heartbreakingly brilliant, the soft squeal of excited panache as the play unfolded, this is award winning presence, and to witness it is to hopefully understand the joy of living.
Dead and Breathing, perhaps something in which we all cling too, just barely surfacing above the waterline, taking in life but not living it, forgetting that seize the day is not just some mantra spoken by a comic genius, but is the most honest and yet destructive force, the most studious of pursuits that we can achieve and it often takes the nudge from the person we would least like to be around to fulfil that affirmation of life.
A play of incredible depth, of the passion that beats between life and death and of looking kindness in the face, no matter what clothes it wears; Dead and Breathing is breath-taking. |
Q:
Are "only" and "just" always interchangeable?
In an English lesson, that can be edited by users, there's a dicussion about a sentence to translate.
This sentence is:
I just eat pasta.
To mean "I only eat pasta".
My own opinion is that this sentence is very ambiguous, because it looks like "I just ate pasta".
I'm not a native, so I need advice from native users.
What a native would use? Rather "just" in this case or "only".
The persons who think this sentence is a good sentence, argue that "only" is interchangeable with "just".
I think it's one of the exception, but is it?
A:
"Is only and just always interchangeable?"
No. "He is a just man" cannot be changed to "He is an only man."
(Here the placement of the "a" makes all the difference, because "He is just a man" would mean "He is only a man.")
Just can mean fair or upright. And just can mean only. Just can also mean recently.
So just is only interchangeable with only where it is meant to be interchangeable with only.
My own opinion is that this sentence is very ambiguous, because it looks like "I just ate pasta".
To a native speaker "I just eat pasta" and "I just ate pasta" are nothing alike. Only the past tense is ambiguous for just. Because "I just ate pasta" could mean "All I ate was pasta" or it could mean "I ate pasta a few minutes ago." But "I just eat pasta" can only mean "I only eat pasta," if it is stated by a native speaker. If a non-native speaker says "I just eat pasta" then it can be ambiguous due to non-native speakers sometimes using present tense as past.

Yet I am getting com.google.firebase.storage.StorageException: User does not have permission to access this object.
How can I set the permission differently?
Here is the official example from https://firebase.google.com/docs/storage/security/user-security
// Only a user can upload their profile picture, but anyone can view it
match /users/{userId}/profilePicture.png {
allow read;
allow write: if request.auth.uid == userId;
}
However instead of giving a user access to a particular file, I want to give an authenticated user permission to write to the path after their user Id
A:
Try this way:
service firebase.storage {
match /b/xxxx.appspot.com/o {
match /{allPaths=**} {
allow read;
allow write: if request.auth != null;
}
}

Micron-size drug particles: common and novel micronization techniques.
Drug powders containing micron-size drug particles are used in several pharmaceutical dosage forms. Many drugs, especially newly developed substances, are poorly water soluble, which limits their oral bioavailability. The dissolution rate can be enhanced by using micronized drugs. Small drug particles are also required in administration forms, which require the drug in micron-size size due to geometric reasons in the organ to be targeted (e.g., drugs for pulmonary use). The common technique for the preparation of micron-size drugs is the mechanical comminution (e.g., by crushing, grinding, and milling) of previously formed larger particles. In spite of the widespread use of this technique, the milling process does not represent the ideal way for the production of small particles because drug substance properties and surface properties are altered in a mainly uncontrolled manner. Thus, techniques that prepare the drug directly in the required particle size are of interest. Because physicochemical drug powder properties are decisive for the manufacturing of a dosage form and for therapeutic success, the characterization of the particle surface and powder properties plays an important role. This article summarizes common and novel techniques for the production of a drug in small particle size. The properties of the resulting products that are obtained by different techniques are characterized and compared. |

Blinding in clozapine trials: a problem and a potential solution.
A methodological problem arises when efficacy of clozapine is compared with other antipsychotic medication in double blind randomized studies. Due to the risk of leucopenia and agranulocytosis, patients in the clozapine condition need to have regular blood testing. The problem is that in order to maintain blinding, patients in the comparison conditions need to undergo blood testing as well and this can lead to underestimation of treatment acceptability and efficacy of the comparators. A thought experiment considering all possible solutions for the methodological problem. We propose a special study design that preserves randomization and blinding while at the same time prevents underestimation of the effect in the comparator treatments. In addition, the necessity for blood testing is limited to only a small number of patients who receive comparative treatments. The design involves initial randomization to a sub-study including clozapine and a small comparator arm or to a sub-study that includes only comparator arms. Blood testing is only necessary in the first sub-study. Limitations of the proposed design are discussed. It is noted that this study design may offer a solution to similar situations where blood testing or other types of monitoring (e.g. as with lithium) is required in one but not in all of the treatment arms of a double blind randomized study. |
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director Zack Snyder has posted a new picture of lead actor Ben Affleck on Twitter, showing a battle weary Caped Crusader with stubble and dusty mask.
Snyder posted the image in honour of the 75th anniversary of the Batman franchise.
It forms part of a photo montage DC created for Comic-Con, with the company noting on its blog: "Yes, as fans have started pointing out, within the dozens of photos and illustrations on the wall is a brand new image of Batman from the upcoming film ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
"The filmmakers wanted to include this new cinematic version of the Dark Knight in the anniversary mosaic so it could be discovered by fans.” |

Chemical burns of the upper gastrointestinal tract.
Burns of the upper gastrointestinal tract, caused by acids, alkalis, drugs or heat may lead to stenoses, some of them severe, to perforations, to inanition and to the patient's death. The type of damage differs among the various groups of noxious agents. First aid at home is almost non existent. On admission every effort must be made to identify the ingested material. Parenteral fluids and antibiotics are used and in some patients nutritional support will be required. The extent of the damage must be evaluated endoscopically. Strictures, caused by intramuscular collagen formation, could possibly be prevented by steroid therapy. If stenoses occur, these must be cautiously dilated. A late complication of oesophageal burns is carcinoma. There appears to be a relation between this grave complication and the use of very hot beverages in certain countries where oesophageal cancer is common. Upper gastrointestinal burns are similar to skin burns, however, their dangers may be greater as they occur in a pipe-like structure and very close to vital viscera. |
Q:
I installed nginx into the wrong directory (using passenger-install-nginx-module)! How do I move it?
When I was prompted by passenger where to install nginx, I entered ~/nginx because I expected that ~/ would be replaced with my home dir. But interestingly, nginx was installed in /home/me/~/nginx!
This is very annoying. So how can I remove the unwanted ~ folder from nginx's path? Should I simply uninstall nginx and reinstall it with an absolute path? How do I make sure that there are no unwanted files left from the first install?
I installed it using gem install passenger and passenger-install-nginx-module.
A:
Yes you should uninstall it and reinstall it. That is the only thing you have to do.

HELPS ARRIVE (THANKS)
On behalf of humankind, thanks: helps are pledged from many other countries for the needs the U.S. now has due to Hurricane Katrina damage and even more importantly, helps are now arriving to alleviate the suffering for the people remaining in New Orleans (among others elsewhere).
HOWARD PLEDGES $10M ASSISTANCEAustralian’s Prime Minister offers help and reaffirms “very, very close relationship with the United States.”Good on ya’, mate.
Suggestion here: consumers make a special effort to patronize these companies, to keep the circle going ’round.
I read that some people find the news coverage problematic about the Hurricane Katrina Apocalypse (understandable, is my point), but to my view, FOX News has done/is doing a remarkable job of covering the events of the past week. I’ve been pondering how the two FOX reporters (Shepard Smith and ….can picture his face but cannot recall his name, but both these FOX reporters have provided remarkable coverage) have survived and managed in their New Orleans’ based coverage, right in the heart of the worst of things. Truly remarkable work. |
[Cases of myocarditis and their effect on the mechanism of death].
In this study, we describe two cases with autopsy findings of interstitial myocarditis. They show that supplementing the autopsy with histopathological examination, even when the cause of death is thought to be clear and obvious, is extremely important as it can contribute valuable information to the case, including the circumstances of death. In the first case, we discussed a tram accident in which its driver was killed. The family of the deceased reported that he had been suffering from consciousness disturbances for some time, and additional radiological examinations demonstrated abnormalities in his neck blood vessels. In the second case, a pregnant woman was admitted to hospital after a cardiac and respiratory arrest. A cesarean section was carried out but the fetus was already dead. The woman was declared dead shortly after the operation. |

Q:
Is this Domain Model correct?
NOTE: I am not sure if this is the correct place for this kind of questions. Although most questions ask about code, I also saw some questions regarding UML and diagrams. PLEASE, let me know if I've done an oopsie and I will immediately delete this post. Also, this post will contain quite a bit of code so I could explain better what is going on in the code.
I started working on a Domain Model for my code (I know, the Domain Model should have been first) but I have issues figuring out how the arrows between my classes should look like. From what I have read I got a slight idea but I am still rather confused.
Firstly this is a link to my domain model.
User is used as a model when creating a new AppUser, class which is an implementation of IdentityUser.
AppUser is used only when you want to Login. I am really not sure if there is any relationship between these two classes. Below you can see the only part where these two classes are involved together.
public async Task<IActionResult> Login(Login login)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
AppUser appUser = await userManager.FindByEmailAsync(login.Email);
if (appUser != null)
{
await signInManager.SignOutAsync();
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Identity.SignInResult result = await signInManager.PasswordSignInAsync(appUser, login.Password, false, false);
if (result.Succeeded)
return Redirect(login.ReturnUrl ?? "/");
}
ModelState.AddModelError(nameof(login.Email), "Login Failed: Invalid Email or password");
}
return View(login);
}
RoleEdit and RoleModification are used to assign an entry from dbo.AspNetUsers to a role from dbo.AspNetRoles.
public async Task<IActionResult> Update(string id)
{
IdentityRole role = await roleManager.FindByIdAsync(id);
List<AppUser> members = new List<AppUser>();
List<AppUser> nonMembers = new List<AppUser>();
foreach (AppUser user in userManager.Users)
{
var list = await userManager.IsInRoleAsync(user, role.Name) ? members : nonMembers;
list.Add(user);
}
return View(new RoleEdit
{
Role = role,
Members = members,
NonMembers = nonMembers
});
}
[HttpPost]
public async Task<IActionResult> Update(RoleModification model)
{
IdentityResult result;
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
foreach (string userId in model.AddIds ?? new string[] { })
{
AppUser user = await userManager.FindByIdAsync(userId);
if (user != null)
{
result = await userManager.AddToRoleAsync(user, model.RoleName);
if (!result.Succeeded)
Errors(result);
}
}
foreach (string userId in model.DeleteIds ?? new string[] { })
{
AppUser user = await userManager.FindByIdAsync(userId);
if (user != null)
{
result = await userManager.RemoveFromRoleAsync(user, model.RoleName);
if (!result.Succeeded)
Errors(result);
}
}
}
if (ModelState.IsValid)
return RedirectToAction(nameof(Index));
else
return await Update(model.RoleId);
}
An Application can have many Releases. If an application is deleted, its releases will also be deleted. Also, an Application must be issued a single Environment (such as Development, Testing, etc.)
A Release can have many Phases. If a release is deleted, its phases will also be deleted. Same as the Applications, a Release must be issued to a single Stage.
A Phase can have many Tasks. If a phase is deleted, its tasks won't be deleted.
A Task can have many Dependencies.
AppIdentityDbContext is a class used for the connection with the database.
ErrorViewModel is a class that I used only once and is not really important. Should it be kept in the Domain Model?
I think that's pretty much it. The Domain Model that I gave you the link to is not yet done as I was unsure whether I am doing the right thing or not. Any help, advice, hints that you could give me are incredibly important and welcome!
Thanks to whoever read this lengthy post and could help me out.
A:
The relation between login and user...login is used to capture the information from the login form, you are then using that info to find the user in the system and verify that they are in the system. They are not linked in your domain model because the login class has a return url in case they need to be redirected and is used to just log someone in. They have separate function and under the premise of programming in an MVC pattern you are separating your concerns which is a good practice.
ViewModels are models so you can expose domain data to your view but is not part of the domain so ErrorViewModel does not need it be included in your diagram.
If modification history is important to you I would suggest a ModifiedBy and ModifiedDate field for the classes you feel it is important to track that info. You can also add another field 'Deleted' so if someone deletes something that wasnt supposed to be you can revert that change. You can also add a 'LastLogin" dateTime field to the user to track users activity.

A feminist picnic turned into a complete disaster yesterday after none of the women brought any sandwiches.
The picnic was supposed to celebrate the capabilities of women in a safe, women-only environment, but things didn’t quite go as planned.
With the sun hanging high in the sky it seemed to be perfect weather for a picnic. But the seven proud feminist friends were in for a big surprise when none of them brought any food at all.
‘I brought a communal picnic hamper for us to all throw in the food we’d brought. I was expecting the usual picnic fare: sandwiches, crisps, a nice fruit salad, and so on – but no-one else brought a single thing. Not so much as a sausage. I was even more furious about my lot in life than usual. I ended up storming off and shame eating three Big Macs from the nearest McDonalds. I’m a vegetarian so it was particularly galling for me to have to do that,’ said picnic organiser Rachel Queen.
The other six women refused to accept the responsibility though, each loudly proclaiming that making sandwiches wasn’t a job exclusively for women. They all managed to turn the blame for the gigantic cock up onto men.
‘Men have turned food preparation into a subservient role to be forced upon women. I never make my own food, that is just one of the many interesting ways I fight the patriarchy,’ said non-sandwich maker Roberta Brooke.
All future feminist picnics have been cancelled. |
Q:
How to keep public static variable from becoming unassigned?
I want to have a Dictionary dict available to a worksheet event handler, so I've stored it in a module GlobalVariables as follows:
Public dict As Dictionary
dict is initialized in the Workbook_Open event:
Private Sub workbook_open()
Set dict = New Dictionary
dict.Add "abc", "def"
End Sub
This is the event handler in Sheet1:
Private Sub worksheet_beforedoubleclick(ByVal target As Range, cancel As Boolean)
If dict Is Nothing Then
Debug.Print "nothing"
Else
Debug.Print "not nothing"
End If
End Sub
When I first open the workbook and double-click on a cell in Sheet1, dict is not Nothing. But If I put a breakpoint on this line:
If dict Is Nothing Then
and then End the sub after it halts at the breakpoint, then the next time I double-click and reach the same breakpoint, dict is Nothing. It seems that ending the _beforedoubleclick sub prematurely has the effect of unassigning dict. How can I keep this from happening? I'd like to have this public variable keep its value while I'm debugging.
A:
You can't keep it from happening. If you need public vars (other than consts) to be assigned when you run code, you need to call an initialisation method at the start of whatever code you're running to check whether they are assigned, and if not, assign them.

A ship with very close ties to North Korea is currently making its way to Casablanca in Morocco, after docking at the Spanish port of Las Palmas in the Canary Islands, the NK News vessel tracker shows.
Though not illegal, it’s very unusual to see suspected North Korean vessels in European waters, or even broadcasting their positions along the North African coast. The last vessel to do so was the Morning Glory, which illegally bought a shipment of oil from rebels in Libya, before being commandeered by U.S. military. |
The interactive processes of accommodation and vergence.
A near target generates two different, though related stimuli: image disparity and image blur. Fixation of that near target evokes three motor responses: the so-called oculomotor "near triad". It has long been known that both disparity and blur stimuli are each capable of independently generating all three responses, and a recent theory of near triad control (the Dual Interactive Theory) describes how these stimulus components normally work together in the aid of near vision. However, this theory also indicates that when the system becomes unbalanced, as in high AC/A ratios of some accommodative esotropes, the two components will become antagonistic. In this situation, the interaction between the blur and disparity driven components exaggerates the imbalance created in the vergence motor output. Conversely, there is enhanced restoration when the AC/A ratio is effectively reduced surgically. |

Q:
Verify string exists as key or value in Python dictionary?
I'm building a scraper/crawler for linux directories. in essence the program will take users input for a file type to scrape for
(which is where my question comes in)
I'm storing acceptable file extension types in a dictionary w/ nested lists for example:
file_types = {'images': ['png', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'bmp'], 'text': ['txt', 'doc', 'pdf']}
To give the user which options they have to choose from I use this for loop:
for k, v in file_types.items():
print(k, v)
Which prints the dictionary in this format:
audio ['mp3', 'mpa', 'wpi', 'wav', 'wpi']
text ['txt', 'doc', 'pdf']
video ['mp4', 'avi', '3g2', '3gp', 'mkv', 'm4v', 'mov', 'mpg', 'wmv', 'flv']
images ['png', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'bmp']
Now if I do:
scrape_for = input("Please enter either the type of file, or the
extension you would like to scrape for: \n")
how can I validate the users input exists in my dictionary file_types as either a key OR a value (I say key OR value so if the user inputs 'images' I can use the values of the key images)
A:
I'd first flatten the extensions list into a set so you don't have to loop through it later on and can do quick on-the-spot lookups:
file_types = {'images': ['png', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'bmp'], 'text': ['txt', 'doc', 'pdf']}
file_extensions = set(sum(file_types.values(), []))
scrape_for = input("Enter the type / extension to scrape: ").lower()
if scrape_for not in file_types and scrape_for not in file_extensions:
print("I don't support this type / extension!")

After designing a website similar to that of Barack Obama, Likud Chairman Benjamin Netanyahu has now hired two of the US president-elect's advisors to help him in his election campaign.
On Thursday the opposition leader finalized the employment of Bill Knapp and Josh Isay, who have worked in recent years with candidates of the Democratic Party in the United States, as well as former President Bill Clinton, Senator Joe Lieberman, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and president-elect Obama.
Copycat Netanyahu? Is Bibi imitating Obama? Adar Shalev Upgraded Netanyahu website suspiciously similar to Barack Obama's website Is Bibi imitating Obama?
Israel's minister for economic affairs in Washington.
Knapp and Isay arrived in Israel several days ago and held a series of meetings with strategists Israel Bachar and Ron Dermer, as well as with Netanyahu himself.
On Thursday the two advisors agreed to work with the former prime minister and to close monitoring his election campaign in Israel.
The Likud chairman has hired American advisors in all of his election campaigns, the most famous one being Arthur Finkelstein, who is now working with Avigdor Lieberman's Yisrael Beiteinu party.
According to estimates in the political arena, Netanyahu has completed the round of professional appointments for his election campaign. The two American advisors will join the opposition leader's team, which includes bureau chief Ari Harow, spokesman Yossi Levy, strategist Roni Rimon, advertiser Shaya Segal and political advisor Shalom Shlomo. |
Plasma and magnetic field
I was reading about plasma the other day, and I was really impressed how it interacts with magnetic field. Reasons as to why it behaves the way it does were clearly explained, but I ran into a couple of problems:
If there is a magnetic field inside plasma, compressing plasma also compresses field lines of the magnetic field. If there is no magnetic field present in plasma, moving the plasma towards a magnetic field results in field lines moving out of plasma's way.
Now, how can a magnetic field be created in plasma, as it (outside of a field) pushes the field away? And if there is a magnetic field in plasma, what would happen if somebody started to pull plasma outwards of the field? Would the magnetic field expand forever or would at some point exist plasma and return to its original position?
The magnetic polarisation is a property inherent to plasmas. As electrons are stripped away, the protons that compose the plasma are left with their positive charge and no electrons to provide a blancing negative charge. Place it in the presence of another positive charge, and the two repel one another.
Thank you for your answer. I've understood that plasma is essentially just loose nuclei (positive ions) and electrons with negative charge (and of course some neutral atoms).
But if there is originally no magnetic field inside the plasma, how can field be generated inside it? Moving a ball of plasma into a magnetic field pushes the field lines aside. Externally generated magnetic field propagetes at a finite speed (speed of light), and when it approaches the magnetically neutral ball of plasma, wouldn't it also be deformed as in the case of moving the plasma into the field?
Now say we have somehow generated the field into the plasma. Now dragging the plasma results in the field lines being dragged along the ball of plasma. Will the field lines follow plasma forever or is there some force that 'pulls' the field lines towards their orinal position, that is, will the field lines at some point let go of plasma and return to their original positions? |

Q:
Create extension function (function with . in name)
I want to generate a very simply class that just contains extension functions, like e.g. following:
import com.my.app.SomeClass
fun SomeClass.function() {
}
What I try:
val packageName = ...
val annotatedClassName = annotatedElement.simpleName
val fileName = "${annotatedClassName}_KotArgsExtensions"
val extensionBuilder = FileSpec.builder(packageName, fileName)
val funSpecBuilder= FunSpec.builder("${SomeClass::class.java.simpleName}.function").build()
extensionBuilder.addImport(SomeClass::class.java.`package`.name, SomeClass::class.java.simpleName)
extensionBuilder.addFunction(funSpecBuilder)
What I get:
import com.my.app.SomeClass
fun `SomeClass.function`() {
}
Question
How I can I correctly create an extension function like fun SomeClass.function()?
A:
Use FunSpec.Builder.receiver():
val builder = FunSpec.builder("function")
.receiver(SomeClass::class)
.build()
println(builder.build().toString())
Will give you:
fun com.my.app.SomeClass.function() {
}

Q:
Bash shell script, run just a certain part of the script with &
I want make a script that runs in background (with &) and checks if a certain file, the name of which is read from the keyboard, exists in multiple directories, given as parameter.
So the script will run in a while true loop, until the file with the given name is created.
The problem is, when I run the script, what I type from read is taken as a normal terminal cmd.
Here's the script:
#!/bin/bash
echo Type the file name
read fileName
while true
do
for file in $@
do
if find $file -name $fileName | grep -q "$fileName"
then
echo The file with name $fileName has been created!!!
break
fi
done
done
If I don't run the script with &, it works fine.
A:
I think what you want to do is send only the part of the script that executes without user input to the background. You can do that if you use & inside the script instead of on the command line.
#!/bin/bash
echo Type the file name
read fileName
while true
do
for file in "$@"
do

Matthew O’Hara: “The History of the Future in Mexico”
Historians of Latin America have spent much energy studying historical legacies. The notion that “the past weighs heavily on the present” is a standard frame for historical analysis. Stepping outside this paradigm, Professor O’Hara’s book project examines how Mexicans thought about, planned for, and accessed the future from the mid-colonial period into the early republic. |

Unilateral papilledema in 'benign' intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri).
Three patients with benign intracranial hypertension ([BIH], or pseudotumor cerebri) had verified increased CSF pressure and unilateral papilledema. One patient had slowly progressive loss of visual acuity until unilateral optic nerve sheathotomy was performed. One patient had spontaneous venous pulsation in the unaffected eye. The diagnosis of BIH must be considered even in the absence of bilateral papilledema. |

Q:
How to Change Text in Shared Libraries (*.so files) in Linux
When I search text in a folder using bash I can see that text is in binary file. I would like to change the text in *.so file.
A:
Before this job, you should make a back-up your original .so file.
Following command may destroy your files.
open your library with vi editor.
Here, the target is not .so file.
As .so is a symbolic link in general, you have to find an original destination file.
enter :%!xxd
This command changes file display format from binary to hex and ASCII.
modify what you want, that is, text.
You must modify on the left, Hex code, not right side, ASCII chars.
You must not insert or delete characters, only replace them. You can't make a string longer. You can make a string shorter by putting nul characters (press Ctrl+V Ctrl+@) at the end.
After modification, enter :%!xxd -r
It will recover display format into binary.
save your file and exit, by entering :wq.

Reporters and Random People Wander Around Shooting Suspects’ House
Share
On Friday, the landlord of dead San Bernardino shooting suspects Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik used a crowbar to pry the plywood off the front of their door; the police had blocked the entrance after doing a search and finding a dozen bombs inside. After the door was open, the dozens of reporters waiting outside stormed the place with camera crews and startedfilming.
What followed was about as bizarre and chaotic as you’d expect, and it ended with CNN posting this “breaking news” update on their homepage with the photo of acrib.
The rush to scrounge through Farook’s and Malik’s lives as quickly as possible meant that news outlets didn’t always bother blurring out the names and information on the driver’s licenses, passports, and documents being filmed live. At least one of the IDs belonged to Farook’smother.
While TV viewers were getting a surreal, slapstick inventory of a recently investigated crime scene, those who were in the middle of doing the investigating confessed that they had no idea what was goingon.
A spokesperson at the FBI’s Los Angeles branch told The Guardian, “I can only tell you that the FBI finished its search. I don’t know who authorized that entry.” The San Bernardino Sheriff’s Office told the Los Angeles Times, “As far as they told us, it’s still an active investigation going on over there so I don’t know why there’s people inthere.”
A reporter asked White House press secretary Josh Earnest about the strange house tour, and he told them to talk to the FBI, as the White House was “just watching it like the rest ofyou.” |
In the sketch, Bloomberg's interpreter, portrayed by new castmember Cecily Strong, was as colorful as Callis and mixed some legitimate signing in with a few comedy-inspired signs. But it was New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's interpreter, played by Nasim Pedrad, whose mimed Jersey attitude took place of actual signing that likely drew Matlin's anger.
"Sign is not mime; it is a legit language," Matlin also tweeted. "Deaf people HAVE a sense of humor. Ever see me on Family Guyor Seinfeld? But faking signs that we use isn't the same.... Imagine if a show started making fun of Spanish (using fake Spanish) or Japanese. Do you think they'd actually get away with it? Uh, no... The jokes about sign cold [sic] be funny if done right. Seinfeld, Family Guy, My Name is Earl WERE funny. This stuff is just dumb."

How to make such a dialogue?
I want to make a guide in my application in this style:
But I don't know how it is named and what to look for in order to reproduce such a guide.
Could someone point me in the right direction?
A:
This is a ViewPager. Each page (Fragment) has an illustration and a text at the center, then there is an indicator at the bottom. Such as this one.
Note that now you don't have to use fragments for ViewPager, you can use ViewPager2 as a Horizontal RecyclerView!

Wafer level packaging methods involve simultaneously bonding a lid over every circuit on a base wafer. A single lid wafer (comprising a plurality of lids) is bonded over the base wafer to package each circuit. Prior art packaging methods require removing oxides from the bonding interfaces prior to bonding. Oxide removal is a difficult process that is imperfect and typically reduces processing yield.
A need therefore exists for improved methods and systems for bonding wafers together. |
Q:
Convert certificate in PKCS12 format for tomcat / JKS Keystore
I have following wildcard certificate files from GlobalSign Authority.
root.crt
intermediate.crt
private.key
I want to configure tomcat HTTPS using above cert files. I believe Tomcat support PKCS12 format.
How do i convert those certificate files in PKSC12 format? also how do i import them in tomcat keystore, specially intermediate cert?
A:
Use openssl to create your PKCS12 file
First create a single intcacerts.pem file with your intermediate(s) and CA, pasted one after each other (they must be in PEM format).
Then call openssl
openssl pkcs12 -export -in myservercert.pem -inkey private.key -certfile intcacerts.pem -name "aFriendlyName" -out keyandcerts.p12
(myservercert.pem is the server certificate in PEM, intcacerts.pem contains the intermediate(s) and CA as described above, private.key is the private key associated with the server certificate)
The documentation for openssl pkcs12 is here
To convert the generated PKCS12 into a JKS keystore, do something like this
keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore keyandcerts.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -destkeystore myJKS.jks

Important safety tips when driving near commercial vehicles
The Spokane Police Department wants to remind motorists to use caution and avoid unsafe driving behaviors around commercial vehicles.
Below are some important tips for driving safely around commercial vehicles:
Stay out of the “No Zones”Commercial vehicles, large trucks and buses have huge blind spots – or No Zones – around the front, back, and sides of the vehicle. Remember if you can’t see the driver in the truck’s side mirror, assume that the driver can’t see you. Don’t drive in a blind spot – slow down or move ahead to stay visible. Be particularly careful when merging near a truck or bus. You may likely be in a blind spot.
Pass SafelyMake sure you can see the driver in the mirror before passing. Signal clearly then move into the left lane and, being mindful of the speed limit, accelerate so that you can get past the truck or bus safely and promptly. Don’t linger in the blind spot. Make sure the truck or bus is visible in your rearview mirror before you pull in front; give it extra space. Avoid passing trucks and buses on a downgrade where they tend to pick up speed. Never pass from the right lane. When a bus or truck is passing you, stay to the right and slow down slightly. Giving the driver room to pass safely helps get you out of the blind spot quicker. Remember to give trucks and buses plenty of space to merge in front of you when coming off ramps or changing lanes.
Don’t Cut It CloseCutting in too close in front of another vehicle is always dangerous, but it’s especially dangerous to “cut off” a commercial bus or truck. If you move in quickly from either side, you’re likely to be in a blind spot so the driver may not see you in time. Even if you’re visible, the vehicle may not be able to slow quickly enough to avoid a crash because of the increased stopping distance required to stop a commercial vehicle as compared to a passenger vehicle.
Stay BackTailgating a truck or bus presents added dangers. First, it puts you in a blind spot – or No Zone. Because trucks are so high off the ground, if you fail to stop in time (or get hit from behind) your vehicle could slide under the truck. Getting too close when stopped is also dangerous – particularly on an upgrade, where a bus or truck might roll back.
Anticipate Wide TurnsBuses and trucks require extra turning room – they swing wide, or may even initiate a turn from a middle (rather than far right) lane. If a truck or bus has its turn signal on, never try to squeeze by it or get between the vehicle and the curb. When you stop at an intersection, never “block the box” or stop in front of the line, as buses and trucks require that space to complete turns safely. |
Assessing sensor reliability for multisensor data fusion within the transferable belief model.
This paper presents a method for assessing the reliability of a sensor in a classification problem based on the transferable belief model. First, we develop a method for the evaluation of the reliability of a sensor when considered alone. The method is based on finding the discounting factor minimizing the distance between the pignistic probabilities computed from the discounted beliefs and the actual values of data. Next, we develop a method for assessing the reliability of several sensors that are supposed to work jointly and their readings are aggregated. The discounting factors are computed on the basis of minimizing the distance between the pignistic probabilities computed from the combined discounted belief functions and the actual values of data. |

Polystyrene Cake Separators
If you are designing a cake with tiers that only need to be separated by a couple of inches, try our polystyrene separators. These are perfect for designs where the wedding cake has nothing but roses between tiers. Whether real, artificial or sugar roses, the wires can be pushed into the polystyrene to fix them in place. If the polystyrene separator is going to be seen, wrap a wide satin ribbon around it a couple of times. If you are creating a contemporary wedding cake, why not try our range of acrylic separators.
How to use a polystyrene separator: For each polystyrene separator you will need the same size single thick card which must be stuck to the bottom of the dummy with glue (such as Pritt Stick). To ensure stability, you will need to insert plastic dowels into the cake underneath where the dummy will sit, these may have to be cut as they should sit level with the top of the cake (make sure they are cut to the same height so that the cakes sit level). |
Promiscous female Euxesta eluta derive nutrients for ovarian development by expelling and consuming ejaculates.
Seminal gifts range from important material donations to items that provide little direct benefit to females. Promiscuous, female silk corn flies Euxesta eluta expel and consume male ejaculates immediately after mating. The evolution and function of this peculiar behavior are currently unknown. We performed a series of experiments aimed to: determine if females under different dietary regimes derive nutrients or water for survival and/or reproduction from ejaculate consumption, if males suffer a fitness cost from supplying females with ejaculates, and if females prefer to mate and/or are more likely to store sperm from well fed than nutritionally stressed presumably inferior males. Experiments revealed that protein deprived E. eluta females derive nutrients for ovarian development through consumption of ejaculates of protein fed males. No seminal products affecting survival appear to be transferred in the consumed ejaculate. However, ovarian development, in contrast to testes growth, occurs in detriment of longevity. Females preferred to mate with protein fed males, yet sperm retention in spermathecae was extremely rare after a single mating. This finding suggests that females could be exerting post copulatory control. A key question that remained to be addressed for the understanding of this puzzling and promiscuous mating system is what ecological factors or male traits drive females to retain sperm from one or several males in order to achieve and/or maximize fertilization potential. |
Q:
Trying to use reflection to find the first Int32 property of a class
I'm trying to find the first property of a class that is an Integer .. and get it's value.
So i've got the following code .. which always returns false:
foreach(var property in type.GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public |
BindingFlags.Instance))
{
var someType = property.PropertyType is int; // Always false.
}
Why is this / what did I do wrong. This should be really simple :(
/me is having a bad day ...
A:
Change the test to:
var firstInt32Property = property.PropertyType == typeof(int);
This is necessary because the property's property-type is itself not an integer: it is aSystem.Typeobject that (loosely) represents what type the property-getter returns / property-setter accepts. On the other hand, invoking the property getter on an instance of the containing-type will produce an actual integer.
Here's a way to use LINQ instead of the foreach loop:
var firstInt32Property = type.GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance)
.First(p => p.PropertyType == typeof(int));
(This will throw an exception if no such property exists.)
To retrieve the value of the property from an instance of the containing type:
int value = (int)firstInt32Property.GetValue(myObj, null);
This will of course fail if the 'first' Int32 property happens to be an indexer or indeed if it simply doesn't have a getter. You could filter such properties out on the original query if such scenarios are likely.
Also note that this code is of limited use because the idea of 'the first property of a class that is an integer' is a little bit suspect. FromType.GetProperties:
The GetPropertiesmethod does not
return properties in a particular
order, such as alphabetical or
declaration order. Your code must not
depend on the order in which
properties are returned, because that
order varies.

Oxidative mechanisms in the toxicity of metal ions.
The role of reactive oxygen species, with the subsequent oxidative deterioration of biological macromolecules in the toxicities associated with transition metal ions, is reviewed. Recent studies have shown that metals, including iron, copper, chromium, and vanadium undergo redox cycling, while cadmium, mercury, and nickel, as well as lead, deplete glutathione and protein-bound sulfhydryl groups, resulting in the production of reactive oxygen species as superoxide ion, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroxyl radical. As a consequence, enhanced lipid peroxidation. DNA damage, and altered calcium and sulfhydryl homeostasis occur. Fenton-like reactions may be commonly associated with most membranous fractions including mitochondria, microsomes, and peroxisomes. Phagocytic cells may be another important source of reactive oxygen species in response to metal ions. Furthermore, various studies have suggested that the ability to generate reactive oxygen species by redox cycling quinones and related compounds may require metal ions. Recent studies have suggested that metal ions may enhance the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) and activate protein kinase C, as well as induce the production of stress proteins. Thus, some mechanisms associated with the toxicities of metal ions are very similar to the effects produced by many organic xenobiotics. Specific differences in the toxicities of metal ions may be related to differences in solubilities, absorbability, transport, chemical reactivity, and the complexes that are formed within the body. This review summarizes current studies that have been conducted with transition metal ions as well as lead, regarding the production of reactive oxygen species and oxidative tissue damage. |
Ontario is planning to sell “green bonds” to pay for improved public transit as Premier Kathleen Wynne continues searching for billions of dollars in funding.
With opposition parties against new taxes, Wynne said her minority government will turn to the little known but fast-growing field of green bonds, earmarked to fund environmentally friendly projects.
“I look forward to funding many important transit projects . . . with this tool,” she told reporters Wednesday while standing in front of a GO Transit locomotive in the west end, citing a downtown relief subway line as one possibility.
The new push comes as Wynne awaits a report froma panel headed by Anne Golden to assess other ways of raising revenue for transit expansion to ease gridlock.
“The government seems to be in a bit of a scramble . . . throwing ideas out there and seeing what’s going to stick,” said NDP Leader Andrea Horwath, who dubbed the bonds “not a bad idea.”
Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak said he needs more detail.
Any green bond issues would require legislation to be passed with support of one or both opposition parties in the minority parliament.
Finance Minister Charles Sousa, who will include the green bonds in his fall economic statement next week, had few answers on how much money Ontario is seeking and what interest rates would be offered, saying he must consult with investment dealers first.
Experts in the field said rates would likely be comparable to Ontario’s general bonds but attract a new breed of socially responsible investor.
Some questioned how Wynne’s idea would work given that special purpose bonds typically rely on a pure revenue stream — such as road tolls in the case of a highway bond — to pay the interest. With transit subsidized by governments already, interest costs would have to be borne by taxpayers.
“The thing here is where are the revenues?” said Laurence Booth, a finance professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management. “This looks a bit like a gimmick.”
Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...
“With any luck we’ll get more detail,” said Travis Shaw, who rates Ontario’s debt as vice-president of public finance at Dominion Bond Rating Service.
Transit projects are not listed under the criteria for green bonds set out by the International Finance Corp., an arm of the World Bank that has pioneered the bonds to finance projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, such as renewable energy.
But that does not mean Ontario could not try because transit involves “some degree of green,” Evelyn Hartwick, head of the IFC’s socially responsible bond projects, said from Washington, D.C.

The mystery of C. elegans aging: an emerging role for fat. Distant parallels between C. elegans aging and metabolic syndrome?
New C. elegans studies imply that lipases and lipid desaturases can mediate signaling effects on aging. But why might fat homeostasis be critical to aging? Could problems with fat handling compromise health in nematodes as they do in mammals? The study of signaling pathways that control longevity could provide the key to one of the great unsolved mysteries of biology: the mechanism of aging. But as our view of the regulatory pathways that control aging grows ever clearer, the nature of aging itself has, if anything, grown more obscure. In particular, focused investigations of the oxidative damage theory have raised questions about an old assumption: that a fundamental cause of aging is accumulation of molecular damage. Could fat dyshomeostasis instead be critical? |
Ah, you gotta love modders. A lot of gamers were greatly disappointed with No Man’s Sky’s dumbed-down flight controls. Thankfully though, modder ‘Hytek’ has released a mod that allows players to freely fly wherever they want. And yes, you can even fly underwater.
As its description reads:
“LowFlight lets you fly as low to the ground as you want and be able to look in any direction (normally, your ship cannot point downwards when near the ground). You can also fly underwater! This mod modifies GCSPACESHIPGLOBALS.GLOBAL.MBIN so it is incompatible with any mods that do so as well.”
Naturally, your ship will take damage if you crash into terrain, so be careful.
Those interested can download the mod from here.
In related news, we also suggest taking a look at the Expedition Mods (allows you to run and walk faster, and fly higher with your jet pack), the Chromatic Aberration + Vignetting + Scan Lines Removal mod, the Fast Dialogue for [NMSE] or [CE] mod, and the Realistic Storms mod.
Have fun!

“Jack had extensive wounds on the back of his body, and the wounds were unable to heal because his skin had deteriorated due to the malnutrition that occurred while he was lost,” the page’s administrator wrote.
“Despite antibiotics, the infections were worsening, and his skin was continuing to deteriorate. He needed surgery to treat the wounds, but there was not enough available skin to close the wounds after the surgery.”
Matthew Cooper of Blue Pearl Emergency Animal Hospital, after Jack was examined, said “He’s storing fat in his liver cells which is called hepatic lipidosis. That’s a pretty serious illness.”
American Airlines issued the following statement on their Facebook page:
“Jack was euthanized by the veterinarian today. We are deeply saddened that Jack the cat has passed away, and we offer profound sympathy to Jack’s owner, Karen Pascoe, for her loss. Our heart also goes out to the Friends of Jack and those in the cat-loving community who have grown fond of Jack since he went missing. We understand that a cat is a beloved family member for so many, including our own employees.
From all of us at American, our sincere apologies to Karen and Jack’s family and friends. We also thank all of you who have provided support, ideas, kindness and understanding for Jack along the way.”
Before boarding her flight in August, Jack’s owner Karen Pascoe received a call from airline employees telling her that Jack was missing. She boarded a different flight with her other cat, “Barry,” after an hour-long search for Jack came up empty.
According to an incident report, Jack and Barry were traveling in separate kennels. Baggage handlers had apparently stacked them on top of each other when Jack’s kennel fell allowing him to escape.
American Airlines made several efforts to find Jack including distributing posters throughout the airport, placing food and water throughout the terminal, setting up humane traps and issuing a pet AMBER alert.
Now that Jack has passed away, his loved ones wish to raise awareness of the risks of traveling with pets in cargo and inspire industry changes to make such travel safer for animals, according to Jack’s Facebook page’s administrator.
“We honor Jack, we honor all the other animals who have been killed, injured, or lost while being transported through cargo procedures, and we honor all of you who have taken the time to share your kindness and love with us.” |
Q:
can I use several usernames in maven settings.xml file?
our Nexus repository is configured to use repository-target permissions:
user1 can deploy to com.company.group1,
user2 can deploy to com.company.group2, etc.
can we have both user1 and user2 credentials for the same Maven repository in .m2/settings.xml file? will Maven try them both if permission is denied for one of them?
A:
You could e.g. use different profiles for each user and set user name and password as properties in those profiles. Then you could activate the profile depending on what user you want to work as at the moment. You could also set one of the profiles to be active by default so that you don't have to always use a profile name in your invocations.
Another way to do it would be to have separate settings.xml files for the users and specify the desired one with the -s flag for the maven invocation.

How to get numeric keypad arrows working with java applications on Linux
The arrow keys on the numeric keypad do not work with Java applications on Linux. Strangely enough, the Home, End, PgUp, PgDn, Ins, Del all work.
This is especially annoying when using Intellij for programming.
How do you get the arrow keys working?
A:
IntelliJ (and CLion) provides the functionality to configure key mappings. Under File->Settings->Keymap->Editor actions it is possible to assign both of the keystrokes ("normal" up/down/left/right and the keypad ones) to corresponding actions. Once this is done, all works like a charm. No need to fiddle with xkb or something.
A:
Physical keys on a keyboard are mapped to key codes using xkb. Here's how I got numeric keys working with java applications (like Intellij) on a Debian derivative of Linux:
Switch to root user
cd /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols
cp keypad keypad.original (just in case)
Edit keypad and replace all occurrences of KP_Up, KP_Down, KP_Left & KP_Right with Up, Down, Left & Right, respectively
Save
dpkg-reconfigure xkb-data
Reboot
Now the numeric keypad will emit the regular, arrow, key codes and not the java-unrecognised, numeric keypad, arrow, key codes.

At first glance it looks like an innocent photograph, showing a duck relaxing by the grassy banks of a pond.
But when the woman who spotted it went for a closer look, she got a rather rude awakening and found it was something else entirely.
The image was taken in Samuel Renfrey Reserve in Mandurah, south of Perth in Western Australia.
It was posted on social media before it attracted some hilarious comments, reported WA Today.
A woman got the shock of her life in a suburban park recently, after she approached what she thought was a duck sitting near a lake (pictured)
It was only when she came close that the woman discovered the duck was actually a large black sex toy.
The woman's assumption was understandable, given there were several ducks seen in the lake nearby.
The photo was shared on a Perth Facebook page, where it was met with plenty of hilarious comments.
One comment said that from a distance, the toy seemed to resemble the Loch Ness monster, the mythical sea creature which lives in the Scottish Highlands.
The City of Mandurah told Daily Mail Australia the incident had not been reported to them. |
Blood levels, clearance rates and effects of epinephrine and norepinephrine on insulin and metabolites during alpha- and beta-adrenergic blockade in cattle in vivo, and in vitro degradation of dopamine in bovine blood.
To study possible modifications of norepinephrine and epinephrine kinetics (metabolic clearance rate and half-times) by inhibition of binding to alpha- and/or beta-adrenergic receptors, norepinephrine and epinephrine were iv infused in the absence or presence of the alpha-adrenergic blocking agent phentolamine, the beta-adrenergic blocking agent propranolol, and during the combined administration of phentolamine and propranolol. In addition, recovery experiments were performed to investigate the in vitro degradation of dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine. Blood levels and kinetics of epinephrine were not modified by alpha- and beta-adrenergic blockade, whereas norepinephrine clearance was reduced by alpha-adrenergic blockade, and was greater than epinephrine clearance. alpha- and beta-adrenergic blockade markedly modified insulin, glucose and non-esterified fatty acid responses to epinephrine and norepinephrine. Norepinephrine and epinephrine could fully be recovered when added to bovine blood plasma. In contrast, dopamine obviously was immediately destructed by bovine, but not by human blood plasma, and should therefore barely be detectable in blood of cattle in vivo. |
Nominated to fill the vacancy left by the retirement of Justice David Souter, Sonia Sotomayor currently serves as a judge on the Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
“Sotomayor’s nomination represents a huge step forward for American law,” says Terris. “Her openness to learning about and learning from international courts will encourage U.S. judges to make careful and appropriate use of the collective wisdom of the global legal community.”
In her foreword, Sotomayor cites commonalities between U.S. and international judges, noting that they both can confront and address the same issues. In addition to the “question of how much we have to learn from foreign law and the international community when interpreting our [U.S.] Constitution,” she writes, “we should also question how much we have to learn from international courts and from their male and female judges about the process of judging and the factors outside of the law that influence our decisions.”
Sotomayor, who was raised in a Bronx public housing project and graduated from Yale Law School, says that "The International Judge," published by Brandeis University Press, “reveals the extent to which all courts, no matter what their provenance or jurisdiction, are in large part the product of their membership and their judges’ ability to think through and across their own intellectual and professional backgrounds, to reach some juncture of consensus and cooperation in which a common language is used to articulate the rules and norms that bind their communities.”

Gasotransmitter delivery via self-assembling peptides: Treating diseases with natural signaling gases.
Nitric oxide (NO), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) are powerful signaling molecules that play a variety of roles in mammalian biology. Collectively called gasotransmitters, these gases have wide-ranging therapeutic potential, but their clinical use is limited by their gaseous nature, extensive reactivity, short half-life, and systemic toxicity. Strategies for gasotransmitter delivery with control over the duration and location of release are therefore vital for developing effective therapies. An attractive strategy for gasotransmitter delivery is though injectable or implantable gels, which can ideally deliver their payload over a controllable duration and then degrade into benign metabolites. Self-assembling peptide-based gels are well-suited to this purpose due to their tunable mechanical properties, easy chemical modification, and inherent biodegradability. In this review we illustrate the biological roles of NO, CO, and H2S, discuss their therapeutic potential, and highlight recent efforts toward their controlled delivery with a focus on peptide-based delivery systems. |
Disruptive innovation or Having wild and useful ideas
David Hall
How to be more creative and innovative – It’s more systematic and more valuable than you think
A passion for creativity and innovation, and a pursuit of the perfect culture, provide a common thread throughout David’s career to date. We are all inherently good at generating useful ideas – but there are occasions when we need to think differently, to introduce novelty into our problem solving, and we all find this inherently difficult.
The world is changing at an ever-increasing pace, and yet the mental models that we use for decision making are based upon experiences in the past. Such models are therefore increasingly outdated, and we need to find new ways of thinking to maintain a competitive advantage. However, simply acknowledging a need to “think differently” is only part of the story – and the real challenge is to assist all staff to understand the things that anchor our behaviours to these outdated models of reality.
David’s workshop will challenge members to break free of traditional thinking that traps them within the world of “more of the same” and show them the strategic benefits of adopting creative thinking within the culture of their business, an understanding of the blockages that operate within the mind of all individuals that effectively block creativity and a practical and systematic approach to introduce creativity into the culture of their business.
Disruptive innovation creates new market and value networks and eventually disrupts them, displacing established market leading firms, products and alliances. It’s a key source of strategic advantage for firms that are fleet of foot and a danger for competitors that struggle to respond quickly to change. Case studies abound from the impact of the Apple iPod on the Sony Walkman, Digital cameras on Kodak film to the current challengers of Uber who are disrupting more than taxi drivers and Airbnb who rent out more rooms than all other hotel companies.
Comments from members on this workshop:
David gave great real examples to support his presentation.
Terrific energy, made it fun and stimulating also.
David made me think about how to change from just gathering useful look at problems to be more creative with novel ideas.
He described the blockers to creativity.
The “working backwards” tips has already given me an insight to a problem I have and I wasn’t even the problem “setter”!
Kept it fast moving and energetic, kept interest throughout the session.
I liked the ideas about forums to achieve creativity.
He highlighted the need to think differently.
Excellent practical tips and helpful examples of techniques with a clear explanation of concepts. |
[Sanitary characteristics of the production of asbestos membranes].
The paper presents preliminary results of sanitary assessment of the production of asbestos membranes. The production may emit highly disperse asbestos-containing aerosols of disintegration with low levels of filamentous particles and respirable fibers of chrysotile-asbestos into the air of working areas. It is concluded that latest chrysotile-asbestos processing is not a significant source of air pollution in the working areas where asbestos-containing and related noxious substances are present. |
Today, there exist various examples of wireless detector units detecting and receiving laser light from an attacking system. These wireless detector units are arranged to be able to detect laser light from an attacking system. The purpose is to create a laser weapon effect one-way simulation between the target system and the attacking system where the target system receives and detects laser light. These present solutions are restricted to one-way laser simulation which is restricted to a straight projectile path laser simulation without taking care of the target range, the projectile time of flight, the aiming off allowance and the ballistics data for the simulated projectile. Further, these present solutions are restricted to a low fidelity usage having a restricted power supply.
Today, there exist reference detector units which are connected with cables and wires. These reference detector units are arranged to be able to receive and detect laser light from an attacking system and to retro-reflect the laser light back to the attacking system for hit evaluation, i.e. two-way laser simulation. These present solutions are restricted to advanced and expensive equipments, and have a limited multi-purpose flexibility. Further, these present solutions are restricted to a time-consuming assembly, installation and configuration procedure.
There is thus a need for an improved and multi-purpose wireless target system unit and target system for a weapon effect simulation removing the above-mentioned disadvantages. |

Q:
How to simulate a mouse click in a datatables?
I would like to simulate a mouse click in my datatables (I'm using Datatables plugin to make the table) when I click on the Edit button to open the inline editor in my table. For this I use $("#datatable td").trigger("click");, it's work but with this method the inline editor open for each line of the table and I would like to open the inline on the line where the button is and not everywhere.
JS :
$("#datatable").on("click", "#btn_ed", function () {
$("#datatable td").trigger("click");
});
A:
Try this, Hope it helps
$("#datatable").on("click", "#btn_ed", function () {
$(this).closest('tr').find('td').each(function(e){
$(this).trigger('click')
})
});

Q:
Is my shell prompt visible to public?
Let say my local system's shell prompt is in this format: myname@mysurname:~$
Is it logged in some server when I login there via SSH/FTP? Or is it completely private information?
A:
No, not by default. When setting up a connection no local username will be send over to the server, only the username / password needed to connect to that server.
They can try to find this out by using something like finger once you have connected, but since you would have to have fingerd running, this is unlikely to happen.
If it is needed to send over the local username, you could send this over as a variable, but this would also need to be configured on the server.
