Q:
Count vs. mass — where can you look this up?
Most dictionaries don't say whether a noun is count vs. mass. Short of asking a fluent English speaker, where can you get this kind of information?
I've tried asking various other ESL/EFL people I know this same question, and also tried googling it, but to no avail.
A:
Beware broad-brush approaches, even if you find a dictionary offering the count - uncount classification. Some - perhaps many - nouns are non-count in some senses and count in others. Coffee is a good example - its basic sense is uncount:
Coffee is a drink made by infusing the ground beans of Coffea arabica
etc.
Too much coffee can be bad for you.
However, different products will be count:
Coffees produced using a higher proportion of robusta beans in the
blend tend to be bitter and have less flavour but better body than
those with a higher proportion of arabica beans.
And ellipsis produces another count-noun polyseme:
Two coffees, please.
(ie two cups / mugs of coffee)
Rice is count when different strains are meant, and sand when different sorts are being mentioned. (There is a poetic use of sands also.) Even furnitures is allowed in certain situations.
There are also grey areas - you'd probably ask for less peas rather than fewer peas (especially if they were mushy) on your plate. Non-count doesn't always mean that counting would be impossible - confetti is treated as a singular non-count noun. The difficulty ensuing when one tries to use algae in both count and non-count senses has recently been addressed in a different thread.
A good place to start looking is http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/en/english-grammar/nouns/common-problems-countuncount-nouns .
A:
Most English dictionaries used and published in the United States don't include that information, just as they don't provide IPA-based phonemic transcription. However, dictionaries published in the UK and elsewhere sometimes do, especially dictionaries for English learners.
One American online exception is Merriam-Webster's Learner's Dictionary, which dutifully reports that pea and bean are both [count], while rice and sand are both [noncount].
A:
You should try Wiktionary. It lists the plural, or indicates that the noun is uncountable. For example, rice is listed as uncountable, and bean has the plural listed as beans.

Understanding the influence of carbon nanomaterials on microbial communities.
Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are widely used because of their unique advantages in recent years. At the same time, the influence of CNMs on the environment is becoming increasingly prominent. This review mainly introduces the research progress in the effects of fullerenes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and graphene on microorganisms and their toxicity mechanisms. On this basis, we have analyzed beneficial and adverse effects of fullerenes, graphene, MWCNTs and SWCNTs to microorganisms, and discussed the similarities of the toxicity mechanisms of different CNMs on microorganisms. This review helps provide ideas on how to protect microorganisms from the impacts of carbon nanomaterials, and it will be conductive to providing a strong theoretical basis for better application of carbon nanomaterials. |
Q:
Scroll only from div to div
I have a customer who requested me to modify the scrolling behavior of his webpage. All discussions aside, he wants it to be on mobile and desktop to be identical and to create an "app like" swiping from entry to entry.
Basically there's a container and if you scroll the container in one direction it should automatically scroll to the next item. I am currently hooking the scroll event and scrolling to the next element but this gets triggered for every scroll (which happens too often).

Q:
Linking text within textarea of custom meta box
I'm using 'Meta Box Script for WordPress' to create custom meta boxes and everything is working great...except the following: We have a textarea that we want to act, basically as another WP the_content (It's for hidden content that is only shown once a link to show hidden content is clicked). My end-users want to be able to put something like the following in the box:
This is some pretty <a href="#">linked text</a>.
I'm using the following code in my template to show the custom meta box content:
<?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'oc_code', true); ?>
The content it shows is exactly like this (I'm guessing it's not parsing, if that's the correct phrase, the URL):
This is some pretty <a href="#">linked text</a>.
What can I do to show a clickable href within the template without adding more custom fields/meta boxes? I was looking at esc_attr, esc_url, etc. but don't know that that is the solution.
TIA!
A:
I finally found the answer to this and am posting it here in case someone else needs the answer. Just put the following in your theme file.
<?php
global $post;
$variable_name = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'custom_metaBox', true);
echo html_entity_decode( $variable_name );
?>
Change the variable name and custom_metaBox to your specific values and voila, functioning HTML code.

Disentangling the link between depressive symptoms and plasma oxytocin in men: The role of brooding rumination.
The links between plasma oxytocin and depression are controversial, ranging from negative to positive associations. The present study was conducted to reconcile those conflicting findings; amongst the features of depression, we considered rumination and hypothesised that rumination would function as moderator between depressive symptoms and oxytocin. Seventy five clinically normal adult male volunteers were assessed for depressive characteristics by means of the Ruminative Responses Scale and Beck's Depression Inventory-II; plasma oxytocin was measured by means of competitive enzyme immunoassay. The results demonstrate that high depressive symptoms were negatively associated with oxytocin concentrations at high rumination levels while such an association did not exist at low levels of rumination. The present findings suggest there are complex associations between oxytocin and brooding rumination, the latter being an important feature among depressive symptoms observed in clinically normal individuals. This complexity can underlie the current lack of consensus on the role of oxytocin in depression. |
Soviet special psychiatric hospitals. Where the system was criminal and the inmates were sane.
The subversion of psychiatric intervention for political purposes in the USSR during the 1970s and 1980s resulted in both intra-psychic and subsequent adaptational dysfunction in those dissidents who physically survived it. Incarceration in special psychiatric hospitals subjected the inmates to a sense of helplessness under the control of a malevolent power, futility, despair, danger from close and contentious contact with hardened criminals and the violently insane, overdosage with mind-altering and body-distorting neuroleptic drugs, and a Kafkaesque ambiguity concerning the specific terms of instutionalisation. Discharge did not bring release from continued threats and the eroded social networks to which the inmates returned subjected them to a new set of stressors. While some families remained intact and provided necessary support during the re-entry period, many families had been destroyed either by the circumstances of the family member's incarceration or by the length of the victim's stay in the psychiatric hospital. Wives left, people died, friends deserted, jobs evaporated, and often there was not even a home to accept them. Social agencies were either hostile or indifferent to their plight. Many felt like they had been thrown overboard from a prison ship without a life preserver. It was the proverbial transition from the frying pan into the fire. |
Endovascular stent: grafting in penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer of the thoracic aorta.
The aim of our study is the presentation of some interesting images of a case with symptomatic penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU) of the thoracic aorta and its endovascular treatment. Penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer is an ulcerating atherosclerotic lesion that penetrates the elastic lamina and is correlated with intramural hematoma (IMH) formation into the media layer of the aortic wall. PAU is more common in the elderly with severe atherosclerosis, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Transesophageal echocardiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are the common diagnostic tools. Surgical treatment may become necessary in cases involving the ascending aorta or in cases of intramural haematoma formation. In the era of minimally invasive surgery stent-grafting is indicated mainly in the elderly patients in presence of serious co-morbidities. |

A probabilistic model for analyzing viral risks of plasma-derived medicinal products.
The prevention of transmission of viral infections by plasma-derived medicinal products is of concern to manufacturers, legislators, and patient representative groups. Recent European legislation requires a viral risk assessment for all new marketing applications of such products. A discrete event Monte Carlo model was developed to determine the viral transmission risks of the plasma-derived medicinal products. The model incorporates donor epidemiology, donation intervals, efficiency of screening tests for viral markers, inventory hold period, size and composition of the manufacturing pool, production time, process virus reduction capacity, and product yield. With the model, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) contamination risks of a typical hypothetical plasma product were calculated, and the sensitivity of the risk to various model variables was analyzed. The residual HIV and HCV risks of the finished products are linear in change with viral incidence rate and inversely linear with product yield and process virus reduction capacity. For the product analyzed in this article, the residual risk is less sensitive to changes in screening test pool size, donation frequency, and inventory hold period. There is only a limited dependency on the donation type (apheresis or whole-blood donations) and a negligible dependency on the manufacturing pool size. The use of probabilistic model simulation techniques is indispensable when estimating realistic residual viral risks of plasma-derived medicinal products. In contrast to conventional deterministic residual risk estimations, the probabilistic approach allows incorporation of specific manufacturing decisions and therefore provides the only feasible alternative for a correct assessment of residual risks. |
Combinando Culturas/Bridging Cultures
A note about the film:
The subject of my film is Alfredo Garcia. The overarching themes are culture, faith, and family. I also touched the effect immigrants from Ocotlán de Morelos, Oaxaca, have had in improving the economy and infrastructure of their hometowns.
Within the film, I explore the difficulties Alfredo experienced learning English, the benefits he experienced finding faith, and the economic growth and development that occurred in Ocotlán de Morelos because of his efforts and the efforts of others. At the time that Alfredo moved from his hometown many others did as well, and this resulted in infrastructure development in Alfredo’s hometown which is something both Alfredo and I found very fascinating and important.
The main character is Alfredo Garcia, and his story is told in a first person narrative. The structure of the film begins with Alfredo’s adolescence in his hometown. It is at this time in his life that he experienced working at the bakery to provide for his family, and he also made a promise to his mother that he would only come to the United States for two years.
The second segment of the film focuses on Alfredo learning English and the reasons he felt it was important for him to learn the language. Following Alfredo’s experience learning English, I focus on his involvement with his church and his role as a bible study leader. The fourth segment of the film traces the impacts of Alfredo’s efforts and hard work in the United States to the development that has occurred in Ocotlán de Morelos since he left twenty years ago.
The film ends with Alfredo’s ideas of the importance of his children understanding his culture, their culture, and the cultures within the United States. The end ties back into the beginning as Alfredo explains his desire to open a bakery or restaurant here in the United States, and also that he has achieved the goals that he set for himself when he left home. |
Q:
How does Transaction Remote Release work?
How exactly does TRR (Transaction Remote Release) work?
What are the similarities (and differences) with the way TOR works?
A:
TRR is like Tor in that it chooses random routes, and uses public key cryptography to secure communications. The major difference is that where Tor creates long-lasting bidirectional channels, TRR would use low-latency single-use one-direction transaction forwarding. At time of writing, there doesn't seem to be a public TRR implementation, so I'm basing this off of this paper.
There is one missing part, though.
Tor uses something called "perfect forward secrecy." In Tor, the private key of a node is useful for pretending to be that node, but it can't be used to decrypt communications after the connection has closed.
To see why this is useful, imagine the following scenario: Your ISP captures a TRR encrypted communication. They see that the first encrypted portion was sent to A. They find A, and get their private key. They decrypt the first layer of the message, and see that the second node is B. Repeat until they see what transaction was hidden within.
This works even though A, B, and C never kept any logs of where they sent the transaction. The way to fix this is either:
use the node's private key to establish an intermediate key, and throw the intermediate key away after the connection closes, or
rotate the node's key very frequently, at least every hour.

There has been a lot of discussion about the state of the University of Minnesota surface this week, and now another player has weighed in about his decision about playing on the frozen surface. This time, the punter, yes the punter, of the Minnesota Vikings, Chris Klume.
The complaints about the playing surface in Minnesota started with the Chicago Bears, then they evolved into Vikings complaints and now it has trickled down all the way to a punter pitching a fit. Seriously, a punter getting press over his concern of a field he’ll be playing on?

Obsessive Relationships
OCD and Relationships
How does Obsessive Compulsive Disorder affect relationships?
It is horrible to have OCD, but the disorder is made especially worse when it causes problems in a relationship. The normal partner is often put in an awkward position, trying to understand and often accommodate behaviors which are bizarre. From their perspective, many compromises and sacrifices are often made. This sometimes causes resentment and friction within the relationship.
On the other hand, the person with the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder desperately needs the help of someone that they can confide in and trust. They may feel helpless in knowing that the non-OCDer cannot truly understand how much the illness controls their actions.
An OCDer can feel betrayed when some "personal rule" is accidentally broken/ignored by their partner or when the disorder is used as the focal point of daily conflicts within the relationship.
Very often the non-OCDer will be unsure of the best way to deal with things. It can be extremely upsetting to see a loved one trying to cope with the illness and being tormented by their obsessions.
The non-OCDer can feel as if they are placed in an impossible position. On the one hand, they might feel compelled to help their partner by accommodating their bizarre and irrational fears and rituals - whilst on the other hand they may be reluctant to do anything that might make the illness worse. This can push the theory known as "tough love" to it's limits.
After years of living with this illness, a tremendous amount of strain is put on the relationship. Both partners may have several feelings and emotions regarding the other.
The non-OCDer may well feel so absorbed in the bizarre world of their OCD partner that it feels like they share the disorder with them. Of course, there may also be feelings of resentment, especially if they have been restricted in their life and their enjoyment of certain things has been affected. They may well have been prevented from doing certain things or going to certain places due to their partner's fears.
The partner with the disorder needs the assistance, support and co-operation of the other, especially when dealing with the compulsions, but this may result in them feeling guilty for disrupting their loved one's lives in such a way.
Of course, families struggle under the pressure of OCD too. Some members of a family may not understand or tolerate the irrational behavior that the illness encourages. It is important to give family members as much information and education about the illness as possible, so that everyone within the family unit understands the seriousness of the illness, it's symptoms, and the amount of torment repeatedly being placed on the sufferer. The family should also find out the best way they can handle the illness without making it worse - both for the sufferer and for themselves!
There is no doubt that OCD does put a great deal of strain on any relationship, and there are many couples and families that do break up, with OCD being used as a real/imagined excuse. However, there are also many people who rise up to the challenges of OCD and become closer and better people despite it. It isn't easy coping with the symptoms of OCD or sharing the pain, embarrassment or hopelessness that it brings. It is hard being on either end of "Tough love."
The greatest feeling we can ALL have and share, though, is "love." It is the one thing that holds any relationship or family together, and in the end, it is this gift that will keep any relationship together. |

Why this works: I'm a huge fan of mixing black and brown in outfit (as seen in this post!), but I've been stuck in a rut with only using a yellow-brown/cognac color. That's why I found the taupe brown color they used in the inspiration photo so refreshing! I definitely wanted to give it a try. The taupe color in my sweater ties in the taupe color in my shoes. I also chose a shirt with "light black" print, versus something with a dark black print, making it blend more easily with the brown. The prints are different, but one is very large (shirt), and one is very small (my shoes) so they work nicely together. I piled on some gold jewelry and a matching belt and I am good to go! Have you mixed taupe and black together? What are your tips for wearing two different animal prints at once?

Students
Community college mission evolving
When North American Lighting, Tasus and other manufacturing operations arrived in the Shoals, they needed skilled workers.
Northwest-Shoals Community College responded by developing industry-specific courses in injectable plastics and other specialities.
Talk to state officials about the community college system in Alabama, and they will talk about jobs. Not only the jobs students will hopefully get with their degrees and certifications, but the jobs leaders are trying to lure here.
Among the incentives being used in that recruiting process is the workforce development help offered by community colleges.
"The two-year college system, as it works at this time, is one of the most effective and most important aspects of workforce training," Gov. Robert Bentley said last week. "They help me tremendously in what we're trying to do, and that's creating more jobs in the state." |

Q:
What does the ".git" mean in a git URL?
I setup a git repo in foo
cd
mkdir foo
cd foo
git init
Now I want to reference that remotely
git clone git+ssh://me@somemachine/home/me/foo.git
fatal: git remote error '/home/me/foo.git' does not appear to be a git repository
So I take .git off and it works. But nearly every example I see has ".git" at the end. What does that ".git" mean?
Also, what's the difference between ssh://... and git+ssh://... (in both meaning and practical terms)
A:
What does that ".git" mean?
.git at the end of a git repository folder is just a naming convention that usually means that the folder is a server and not a client. I believe it's determined by the repository being bare or not (bare repositories have no working directory). The clone URL just points to a folder, if the actual folder has .git at the end, add it. Otherwise, don't.
Also, what's the difference between ssh://... and git+ssh://... (in both meaning and practical terms)
In practical terms they're pretty much the same. In meaning, they're using different protocols to connect to the server. ssh:// opens up an SSH connection to a server with a specific user and runs the git commands on the server (typically the server will restrict the commands by setting the user's shell to /usr/bin/git-shell). git+ssh:// means that the server is running git daemon locally and that clients need to first open an SSH connection to interact with the daemon.
A:
It's a common (but certainly not universal) convention that bare git repositories are created in directories whose names end with .git. That's the reason that you usually see .git at the end of repository URLs.
I'm not sure about the git+ssh scheme - in fact I can't find a reference to it in the git man pages. According to the Eclipse forums the protocol has been removed in favor of plain old ssh. (The Eclipse forums are of course not an official source of information about git, but that would make sense. I never knew what the difference was supposed to be anyway.)

Q:
How to fetch data from two different sql servers?
I have an inline query, in which I have one table1 in server1 and another table2 in server2.
I need to join these two tables, and fetch data.
I can do this like connect to one server, get data and connect to next server...fetch data.
and join them.
But is there any other better way. I have heard about Linked servers. Will that help here ?
Thanks in advance !!!
A:
Yes, set up a linked server on one server to the other. Then you can just do a normal query with a join. It would look something like this:
SELECT t1.Col1
, t2.ColA
FROM server1Table t1
INNER JOIN SERVER2.dbname.dbo.tableName t2 ON t1.TheId = t2.TheId
this assumes you're running the query on Server1. You can also have two linked servers and reference them both using [servername].[dbname].[schema].[table] and then use in SQL as normal.
Alternatively, you can use OPENROWSET (but linked server is easiest if you're able to set that up). OpenRowSets look like this:
SELECT t1.Col1
, t2.ColA
FROM server1Table t1
INNER JOIN OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI', 'Server=Server2;Trusted_Connection=yes;',
'SELECT t2.ColA, t2.TheId FROM dbname.dbo.tableName') AS t2
ON t1.TheId = t2.TheId
and then you can just join on 'a' as if it's a local table. Under the hood it's probably pulling all the data down to your local database, so you should consider adding WHERE to the inner query to restrict rows, and only get the columns you need.

"Speaking of Asia — BlackBerry's plans for a China launch are still unclear. We asked about specifics at the launch event last week but were not given a clear answer on carrier or release dates. BlackBerry has not responded to our requests for more information on its Asia strategy moving forward."
Hi, what do you mean?
I think they don't even know what is the message in this case.
You have to under how the new BBRY (aka RIM) works. They have been releasing their devices to countries who carry the most volume first and slowly releasing them in countries that sell very few. I would recommend if you really want one buy one from Ebay or somewhere as I know one the reasons why BBRY doesn't even have their devices made in China is because they would end up like iSheep devices (aka Apple), people in China would be opening up knock off stores trying to selling fake BlackBerry devices. |
Spinal pathologies and disorders such as scoliosis and other curvature abnormalities, kyphosis, degenerative disc disease, disc herniation, osteoporosis, spondylolisthesis, stenosis, tumor, and fracture may result from factors including trauma, disease and degenerative conditions caused by injury and aging. Spinal disorders typically result in symptoms including deformity, pain, nerve damage, and partial or complete loss of mobility.
Non-surgical treatments, such as medication, rehabilitation and exercise can be effective, however, may fail to relieve the symptoms associated with these disorders. Surgical treatment of these spinal disorders includes correction, fusion, fixation, discectomy, laminectomy and implantable prosthetics. Correction treatments used for positioning and alignment may employ implants, such as vertebral rods, bone screws and sub-laminar wire, for stabilization of a treated section of a spine. This disclosure describes an improvement over these prior art technologies. |

Even though President Trump has already proposed a follow-up to his recent summit with Vladimir Putin, it would appear that the Russians aren’t interested in another meeting.
Reuters recently reached out to Kremlin diplomat Yuri Ushakov to see if Moscow had any response to the fallout from last week’s summit in Helsinki. Ushakov said that Trump and Putin could have a meeting at international events like the G20 summit later this year, but he declined to elaborate on why exactly his government hasn’t accepted Trump’s invitation to meet again sooner.
“After the summit you know what kind of atmosphere there is around its outcome,” said Ushakov. “I think it would be wise to let the dust settle and then we can discuss all these questions in a business-like way. But not now.”
Even though Trump mostly spoke favorably of Putin during their joint press conference and the days since then, Reuters suggests that the Russians were “taken aback” by the magnitude of the criticism Trump received for how he handled the summit. This might have factored into Ushakov’s comments to the media, since the report described him as “citing a desire not to inflame what he described as an already overheated U.S. political situation.”

The resolution issues likely has to do with the specs of your computer.
In some of the more recent updates there have been common issues with lag in certain areas (which is probably part of the issue with why your game doesn't run smoothly) that will hopefully be fixed in the future. |
Augmented reality combines real world attributes, such as physical position or movement, with computer-generated, often graphical, data. Together, the attributes and data form a user experience occurring in a real world environment, while interacting with virtual objects, typically occurring in real time. In general, augmented realities are presented through graphical user interfaces, which can also be supplemented with auditory cues, tactile feedback, and other computer outputs. Thus, the user is able to view virtual objects positioned in the real world.
Recently, the capabilities of mobile platforms, such as portable media players, personal data assistants (PDA), and mobile telephones, have grown to enable on-the-go generation of augmented realities. Users are no longer tied to desktop environments and the physical constraints imposed by having to remain in a relatively stationary position. Moreover, these platforms are increasingly being equipped with input capabilities extending beyond the immediate user interface. For instance, mobile telephones often incorporate built-in cameras and global positioning system (GPS) receivers, the latter of which enables the device to determine the user's physical location. Similarly, portable media players are beginning to incorporate motion sensors that sense directional device orientation.
For the most part, the extended capabilities of these devices have been limited to providing abstract objects with a real world view for a single user, rather than collaboratively between multiple users. For instance, Pokemon Go by Niantic, Inc. of San Francisco, Calif., is a location based augmented reality game in which a user captures virtual Pokemon characters by moving around in the real world. A user can capture the characters by touching a virtual ball that appears on a screen of a mobile device and flinging the ball towards the virtual character positioned in the real world. However, catching the virtual characters are limited to a single user who is on a solo journey to catch and collect Pokemon characters.
In a recent update, raid battles were introduced in Pokemon Go, in which multiple players can join a raid to collaboratively attack a raid boss by independently fighting the raid boss at the same time. However, within the raid, a user is unable to interact with other users in the same battle or raid. For instance, the users are unable to communicate with one another and to coordinate moves to defeat the raid boss. Further, views of the users are not coordinated such that cooperative play can occur.
Therefore, a need remains for an approach to providing spatially accurate and oriented perspective views of virtual objects in the real world based on the location of each of a plurality of users. |
Q:
WinForms how to call a Double-Click Event on a Button?
Rather than making an event occur when a button is clicked once, I would like the event to occur only when the button is double-clicked. Sadly the double-click event doesn't appear in the list of Events in the IDE.
Anyone know a good solution to this problem? Thank you!
A:
No the standard button does not react to double clicks. See the documentation for the Button.DoubleClick event. It doesn't react to double clicks because in Windows buttons always react to clicks and never to double clicks.
Do you hate your users? Because you'll be creating a button that acts differently than any other button in the system and some users will never figure that out.
That said you have to create a separate control derived from Button to event to this (because SetStyle is a protected method)
public class DoubleClickButton : Button
{
public DoubleClickButton()
{
SetStyle(ControlStyles.StandardClick | ControlStyles.StandardDoubleClick, true);
}
}
Then you'll have to add the DoubleClick event hanlder manually in your code since it still won't show up in the IDE:
public partial class Form1 : Form {
public Form1() {
InitializeComponent();
doubleClickButton1.DoubleClick += new EventHandler(doubleClickButton1_DoubleClick);
}
void doubleClickButton1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e) {
}
}

In a match which saw attacking action primarily against the woodwork, which was to be hit a surprising five times, Egemen Korkmaz's controversial late winner pushed the Turkish hosts that little bit closer to Amsterdam and a first-ever European final.
On a night of frustration for Benfica, substitute Nicolas Gaitan got closest with a shot against the post, with the visitors having it all to do at Estadio da Luz next week.
Aykut Kocaman made two changes from the side that dismantled Lazio in the quarter-final, with Moussa Sow returning to start alongside Pierre Webo and Dirk Kuyt. On the opposite side, Jorge Jesus deployed five changes to the starting eleven that beat Newcastle as captain Luisao missed out through a thigh injury.
Despite the typically raucous atmosphere inside the Istanbul venue, it proved to be a cautious opening to the semi-final, with both sides happy to bide their time as Eduardo Salvio and Maxi Pereira ensured Benfica enjoyed the better start.
But given Fenerbahce's tidal wave of support, it was not long before they rallied at the other end with chances coming in quick succession.
Firstly, Webo's neat pass into Sow flashed narrowly wide, before Kuyt's superb cross was met wonderfully by the Ivorian striker who easily beat Jardel in the aerial challenge, though was unlucky to see his bullet header cannon back off the crossbar.
Still, Kocaman's side threatened continously as the Eagles appeared in danger of falling behind. Egemen Korkmaz did well to find space and grind out a free header which was headed tamely at Artur, despite a good set-piece delivery from the hosts, who by now were in the ascendancy.
Nevertheless, the Portuguese visitors hit back at the other end, with surprise starter Pablo Aimar pulling the strings as Ezequiel Garay saw a decent chance wasted with Oscar Cardozo surprisingly quiet up front before the first-half drama began to ensue in additional time.
Ola John was adjudged to have fouled Gokhan Gonul approaching the penalty box, with Serbian referee Milorad Mazic immediately pointing to the spot. Up stepped Cristian Baroni, whose low penalty slammed against the post and away on the stroke of half-time, with the midfielder being dragged away in tears by team-mates to complete a high-tempo first half.
The second, however, started in the same way for the Turkish outfit who were once more unable to penetrate the defence. With Cristian once more bringing a fine save out of the goalkeeper, followed by Raul Meireles' stinging effort, Kuyt fired a third effort against the woodwork with a fine swivel and shot which Artur eventually got to.
The attacking intensity unrelenting, it was time for Benfica to test the vulnerable Volkan in the opposite goal, with Cardozo smashing a low effort towards the goalkeeper, before subsitute Nicolas Gaitan ensured the post was hit for the fourth time with a great effort from outside the box which left the keeper stranded.
The deadlock was finally broken in controversial circumstances as the game hurtled towards the final quarter of an hour. From a corner, Korkmaz rose highest to head the ball yet again off the post with Melgajero at fault as the ball crossed the line before celebrations got going after the fifth official awarded the goal.
Fenerbahce held on to take command of the semi-final tie, as they look to confirm their place in the Europa League final next week in the semi-final second leg at Estadio da Luz. |

This invention relates to a method of operating a ticketing system. In particular but not exclusively the invention relates to a method of operating a ticketing system for a transport service.
Ticketing and check-in procedures of public transport providers are on the whole, implemented with paper documentation. Using the example of an airline journey, a passenger either through a travel agent or the airline books and pays for a journey and is issued with a paper ticket and/or boarding pass as proof of carriage. The ticket/boarding pass contains information identifying the passenger and the journey. The information on the ticket/boarding pass is verified at the airport by an airline employee before the passenger is allowed to board the flight. Commonly, an airline employee using a computer, which is connected to a database on which the passenger's reservation details are stored, manually verifies the information on the ticket/boarding pass. There are several problems with this process. For instance, manual verification can be slow and hence inconvenient to the passenger. Furthermore, the process relies on pre-printed paper tickets, which are tedious to deal with, and prone to being lost.
Some effort has been made to automate the check-in procedure at airports. For instance, some airlines now issue tickets or boarding passes, which have ticket information, stored on a magnetic swipe strip. This information is verified at the airport pre-boarding by swiping the card through a swipe reader, which automatically reads the information on the strip. Whereas, the use of swipe strips and swipe readers does speed up the check-in process it is not without its disadvantages. In particular, swipe card readers and also the printers needed to print the ticket/boarding pass with the necessary swipe stripe are expensive to install and cumbersome to use. |
Q:
Standard name for method to check and set a variable
I am aware that the 'standard' name for methods to check and to change the value of a boolean variable X are getX(), isX() and setX().
Is there a standard name for a method which returns the value and changes it after returning it but only the first time (i.e. I cannot use toggleX() because it will only toggle the first time)? I want to have a method which returns true only the first time it is called, so something like:
public boolean isFirstExecution() {
if (mIsFirstExecution) {
mIsFirstExecution = false;
return true;
} else {
return mIsFirstExecution;
}
}
The problem is that I think it might be confusing to have a method called isX() changing the value of a variable.
A:
I do not think there's specific name for the function that you are intend to make.
Just specify the purpose of function when you name it. Not too long but specific enough so that others also can recognize when they see your code.

Q:
pandas aggregated data to a numpy array : data structure conversion
I have aggregated data using pandas data frame. Below is some actual data shown and how I aggregated it.
fdf.groupby(['row',col'])['percent'].sum()
http://pastebin.com/R8XWpgtU
What I would like to do is create a 2d numpy array of this (rows = row, columns = col). Any slick way to do this ?
Another way I did something similar was create a pivot table
pivot_table(fdf,values='percent',rows='row',cols='col', aggfunc=np.sum)
In this case I want to convert this pivot table to 2d numpy array. Is there a way for me to index into each cell of this table. If so then I probably will be Ok with the table itself.
A:
Try:
result = fdf.groupby(['row',col'])['percent'].sum()
result.unstack('col').values
Alternately:
fdf.pivot_table('percent', rows='row', cols='col', aggfunc='sum').values

Q:
.current_user not working when using scopes?
I'm using Devise and has_scope gem for filtering options and only want show a current users links only.
This works
@links = current_user.links.all
This does not. Can someone explain what i need to do to make this work?
@links = apply_scopes(Link).current_user.all
A:
One solution is to create a scope in the link that takes an argument user_id and in your controller has_scope with no arguments, and just pass a hash to apply_scopes method to override the supplied values of your scope.
Link Model
scope :of_user,->(user_id){ where(user_id: user_id)}
Link Controller
has_scope :of_user
Just call apply_scopes(Link, of_user: current_user.id).all where of_user is just the applied params for the named scope.

abstract: 'Modern distributed systems often rely on so called weakly consistent databases, which achieve scalability by weakening consistency guarantees of distributed transaction processing. The semantics of such databases have been formalised in two different styles, one based on abstract executions and the other based on dependency graphs. The choice between these styles has been made according to intended applications. The former has been used for specifying and verifying the implementation of the databases, while the latter for proving properties of client programs of the databases. In this paper, we present a set of novel algebraic laws (inequalities) that connect these two styles of specifications. The laws relate binary relations used in a specification based on abstract executions to those used in a specification based on dependency graphs. We then show that this algebraic connection gives rise to so called robustness criteria: conditions which ensure that a client program of a weakly consistent database does not exhibit anomalous behaviours due to weak consistency. These criteria make it easy to reason about these client programs, and may become a basis for dynamic or static program analyses. For a certain class of consistency models specifications, we prove a full abstraction result that connects the two styles of specifications.'

Challenging heteronormativity in the consultation: a focus group study among general practitioners.
To reflect on and further understand mechanisms of heteronormativity in the consultation, with special focus on the relative invisibility of lesbian women. Tape-recorded focus group interviews transcribed verbatim and analysed using qualitative methods. General practitioners (GPs) from the city of Göteborg, Sweden, who had formerly answered a postal questionnaire about lesbian women in the consultation, were invited to take part in subsequent focus groups. Ten GPs from the questionnaire who accepted the invitation and volunteered to participate in focus groups. A discourse analytical approach using interaction regarding consensus and disagreement between informants in creating major and minor themes. Consultation skills were forwarded as a major tool in receiving optimal information from patients. However, traditional concepts of family and sexuality restricted information and hampered an accepting attitude. Bringing up issues of sexual identity/orientation was left to the lesbian patient and strongly related to her reason for attending. Consultation skills are a useful but not sufficient means of making lesbian women visible in the doctor-patient relationship. Doctors also need to transcend traditional concepts of family and sexuality and reflect on what is a relevant issue from the patient's perspective. |
From the founder of Big E Toys. "The Future of Board Games" is as you might expect, an exploration of the future of board games. In what direction are we headed and why? What will we be playing? How will we interact? What will games look like in the future?
Two men were chatting outside the Minneapolis public library the other day, discussing the upside of unemployment. “I’m spending more time with my family, and we’re just hanging out —doing old-fashioned stuff like playing board games and cards.” His unmarried friend was incredulous. “Well, you don’t need a ruined economy to do that!”
But it seemed to me the bachelor was missing the point, and the family man was reading my mind: “Losing my job made me rewrite my whole budget, which made me realize that working hard in order to spend hard meant a lot of sacrifices. For what? Less time, more junk, deeper debt.” The bachelor thought a moment, and then said, “Dude, it’s people like you who are making the recession longer and harder for everyone.”
The bachelor might have been correct from a macroeconomic point of view — economists call it the paradox of thrift: The less consumers spend, the longer the recovery. But who could blame the family man for looking out for number one? Consumers of every income level are realizing that getting tougher on the budget has a lot of upside. They get their finances in order, build on a more solid economic foundation for the future and, yes, recommit to core beliefs without the distractions of debt-driven consumerism. Will that delay recovery? Yes. But when recovery comes, we’ll not likely see another Great Recession in our lifetimes. |

Q:
Is it practical to record table creation/modificaion events in a separate table?
I'm about to begin designing a database for an MVC web app and am considering using a table called 'changes' or 'events' to keep track of all changes made to the database. It would have a field for the table name, record id, user making the change, the timestamp and whether it was a creation or modification event.
My question is whether this is a poor design practice compared to having 'created by', 'created on', 'modified by', 'modified on' fields in each table. I was thinking that in the parent Model class, I would use a before-save function recorded every change. I can see a pitfall might be if many records were updated at once, it might be difficult to get the function to save the changes properly.
A:
This is a matter of weighing up the benefit of having the granular info against the overhead of writing to this table every time something in the database changes and the additional storage required.
If you are concerned about using a function on the model class then an alternative would be database triggers. This would be quite robust, but would be more work to set up as you would need to define triggers for each table unless the database you are using has a facility to log DML changes generically.
Finally, I would also advise considering archiving as this table has the potential to get very big very quickly.

Heredity in dementia of the Alzheimer type.
Family, twin and linkage studies in Alzheimer's disease are reviewed. Several of these studies appear to be burdened with sources of error, mainly related to sampling and clinical diagnoses. It was previously thought that early-onset cases of Alzheimer's disease were heavily genetically influenced, whereas late-onset cases were sporadic. The author questions whether this difference is mainly due to methodological error. |

Q:
How to develop a custom sculpt tool?
Blender comes with a bunch of sculpting tools:
I am wanting to create a custom sculpting tool but I am not sure where to begin. How would I go about creating a custom sculpting tool with several extra properties in the properties area:
As an aside, when looking at the contents of a .blend file I noticed that all of the sculpting tools are inside there; so I basically want to add a new custom one into there somehow...
What I am looking to create
The tool that I want to create would basically have three properties "Source Mesh Min", "Source Mesh Max" and "Direction". Both of the source meshes would have the exact same topology as the actual mesh that is being sculpted.
The sculpting tool would then essentially lerp the current mesh towards one of the two source meshes depending upon the selected direction.
A:
Sculting is a very calculation intensive task. For speed reasons it has been developed in the core of blender using the C language. Implementing the tools you describe in sculpting is possible, but not using the python API. Gladly Blender is OpenSource so you will be able to get the sourcecode and change it to your likings.
Python Alternative:
As in your description the topology must be the same it sounds like sculpting is more the UI/workflow and not the tool (using sculpting the topology does not have to be the same (Dynamic topology). Implementing such a feature inside the 3d editor using python seems to be an good alternative.
You could even store the values in a Weightmap and use this data to calculate the new mesh. Getter the interactivity will be the challenge.

A couple of weeks ago, we had Clint Scoles give us a preview of the Royals draft and now that the picks are all in, he joined us again to talk about the results. It’s an unexpected set of picks, but there’s talent there. Clint covers the big names, the approach, and what it means for the Royals future.
We also discussed Brad Keller, Danny Duffy, a putrid Royals offense, and – unexpectedly – a Jon Jay trade that broke while we were recording. |

Hundreds of thousands of believers from Hungary, Transylvania and other places around the world, make the pilgrimage to Csíksomlyó (Sumuleu Ciuc) at Pentecost. We collected the best pictures:
President highlights message of reconciliation in pilgrimage homily
Hungarian President János Áder stressed the message of reconciliation in a homily delivered at a pilgrimage in Sumuleu Ciuc (Csíksomlyó), Romania, on Saturday.
“Peace was the central message of Bishop András Veres’s homily,” Áder told journalists after the celebration of the mass.
“We must make peace with ourselves as well as create peace within our families, communities, cities and countries. It would be welcome if this message was heard by as many people as possible,” he added.

Dear Editor: Bring Back Non Sequitur
The number of newspapers dropping Non Sequitur over a lapse in judgment is approaching double digit dozens. Now fans and readers of Wiley‘s comic are expressing disappointment in the newspapers’ actions and requesting the return of one of their favorite cartoonists.
Halltoons by Ed Hall
I hope you will reconsider! Non Sequitur is probably one of the most enjoyable comics in the newspaper…The artist who produces Non Sequitur is innovative, unique and totally interesting. He has apologized and said it would not happen again. I guess his word is not enough for those “people who know who they are” out there who can’t stand anything different or thought provoking Please do not discontinue “Non Sequitur.” It is the best comic strip on the page.
Good grief! Is everything offensive? What kind of sheltered life are we leaving to the poor snowflakes among us? Be bold! Resume publishing Non Sequitur and add Mallard Fillmore!
Many of the responses mentioned Mallard Fillmore and Doonesbury, though not in the positive manner as the reader above.
Others suggested a temporary, not permanent, punishment.
Non Sequitur is humor, fantasy, parables
Some are replying with their pocketbooks.
To be sure there were those who agreed with the decision made by newspapers.
Those who disagreed.
And those who demanded the drop before the paper officially did so.
While some understood but will miss Non Sequitur all the same.
Last weekend the comic artist Wiley Miller made the mistake of actually writing out what he was thinking and the N&R has responded both quickly and appropriately…“Non Sequitur” outstripped other comics by being both well-drafted and able to pull the veil off many of our current absurdities. Just going to have to rely on “Doonesbury” until it, too, gets axed for crossing some other PC line.
above: today some newspaper subscribers missed the beautiful art of Wiley.
More than a few compared the comic to the very public tweets and statements of President Trump:
Wiley speaks Truth to Power.
Some accuse the newspapers of unnecessary censorship and cowardice.
The N&O has reached a new journalistic low in self-censorship with its decision to drop “Non Sequitur” from its comic pages…But you can’t stop there — Dennis the Menace has some very troubling themes concerning corporal punishment of children, and Blondie indulges in blatant and dated stereotypes of women. The N&O has got a lot of work ahead of it to make its comic pages inoffensive to its readers! After careful rereading of my favorite comic strip in the Bangor Daily News, I find the BDN’s censorship offensive. What happened to freedom of speech and protection of satire and humorous expression of political differences? It does seem rather spineless and petty that The Sun would remove one of the smarter and more insightful cartoons from its publication.
For some fans it’s the editors’ lack of knowing the good comics from the bad.
Bless your heart, I know you can’t help not having much of a sense of humor. You need to leave the comics alone — quit changing them — and do not remove “Non-Sequitur.” I need to see how the bears will again try to trap the humans.
The Dallas News published a quintet of letters damning, praising, and suggesting replacements.
The San Diego Union-Tribune also published a number of letters both pro and con.
Daytona Beach News-Journal letters run the gamut from dismay to approval to a paper wimping out.
But, by far, most of the letters bemoaned the loss of an excellent comic and supported Wiley.

In known types of manually operated silk screen printing apparatus, a hand-held squeegee is used to distribute ink across the screen and to force the ink through the screen onto the item to be printed in the pattern dictated by an intelligence pattern formed on the screen. While hand-held squeegees are inexpensive, even experienced printers, particularly when tired or distracted, sometimes fail to maintain a uniform pressure across the length of the squeegee blade during the printing stroke, resulting in an uneven print quality. Further, with hand-held squeegees, it is difficult to duplicate exactly the squeegee print action from one print to the next so that occasionally even consecutively-made prints may be non-uniform in quality. This is particularly noticeable in moderately long production runs of large-sized jobs.
Currently, manual silk screen printing units have been developed in which the squeegee blade is mounted on an elongated lever arm that is pivotally mounted at one end and that extends across the screen. The other end of the lever arm is a free or handle end that allows upward or downward movement of a squeegee carried on the lever arm to engage or disengage the screen. The squeegee is mounted on a carriage slideable along the lever arm when pushed and pulled by the operator through a print and flood stroke across the screen. Typically, the squeegee is pivoted on the carriage and the operator grasps the top of the squeegee with a hand on opposite sides of the lever arm and the carriage. The operator balances the amount of downward force exerted by each hand on the top of the squeegee to maintain the squeegee level and to try to exert uniform pressure on opposite halves of the squeegee blade onto the screen. The operator also adjusts the angle of incidence of the squeegee manually and tries to maintain a relatively uniform angle during an entire printing or flood stroke. The operator is free to adjust this angle during the stroke or between strokes and often inadvertantly makes such adjustments. That is, the operator is free to swing the squeegee to any angle of incidence with the screen, with the higher, more vertical angles for the squeegee exerting more force onto the screen to push the ink through the screen than when the squeegee is swung more toward the horizontal. The operator flips the squeegee between its print and flood strokes to an inclined angle of incidence between the flood and print stokes. In a typical, multi-arm, manual textile printer illustrated herein, the operator prints with the squeegee's lower end tilted away from the operator at the end of the level arm. At the end of the print stroke the operator turns the squeegee to an opposite inclination, with the lower end of the squeegee closer to the operator who is pushing the squeegee radially inwardly along the lever arm. Operators often have problems adjusting and maintaining this angle of incidence.
Manual operated silk screen printers are low in cost compared to automatic motor driven printers and any changes therein to produce better quality of printing or higher rates of production must be cost competitive to be commercially successful. Production from a manual silk screen printing press can be increased with the present invention by reducing the number of failures to achieve the quality of print needed and by reducing operator fatigue.
Accordingly, it is the primary object of the present invention to provide an improved, manual screen printing apparatus of the foregoing kind.
More particularly, it is an object to provide such an apparatus which is compact in size so as to be readily usable for printing small areas.
It is a further object to provide a manual screen printing apparatus that provides smooth, even and repeatable squeegee action across the screen which reduces operator fatigue and increases production from the apparatus.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent upon reference to the drawing and the detailed description of the preferred embodiment. |
Q:
C# XML XDocument
I am coding a media player in C# so I saved playlists in an XML as below :
So I want to get attributes of playlist "name" and attribute of media "path".
I am able to get both using this code :
var xdoc = XDocument.Load(@"mypath");
var names = from i in xdoc.Descendants("playlist")
select new
{
Path = (string)i.Attribute("name")
};
var paths = from i in xdoc.Descendants("media")
select new
{
Path = (string)i.Attribute("path")
};
foreach (var name in names)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(name.Path);
foreach (var path in paths)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(path.Path);
}
So I get this :
Films
E:\Projets\CS - MyWindowsMediaPlayer\Example Medias\Music1.mp3
E:\Projets\CS - MyWindowsMediaPlayer\Example Medias\MusicInfos1.mp3
E:\Projets\CS - MyWindowsMediaPlayer\Example Medias\Video2.mp4
E:\Projets\CS - MyWindowsMediaPlayer\Example Medias\Video1.mp4
E:\Projets\CS - MyWindowsMediaPlayer\Example Medias\Video3.mp4
But I want to sort by categories, for example getting only links that corresponds with films.
A:
Lets use a combination with SelectMany and GroupBy.
The SelectMany will create a single list, with a tuple containing the playlist name and the media path, then we use GroupBy to group this list by playlist name, and finally we can use the Where to filter only the playlist with a given name, in this case, Films.
var xdoc = XDocument.Load(@"mypath");
var paths = xdoc.Descendants("playlist")
.SelectMany(x => x.Descendants("media"), (pl, media) => Tuple.Create(pl.Attribute("name").Value, media.Attribute("path").Value))
.GroupBy(x => x.Item1)
.ToList();
foreach (var name in paths.Where(x => x.Key == "Films"))
{
Console.WriteLine(name.Key);
foreach (var tuple in name)
{
Console.WriteLine(tuple.Item2);
}
}

Ovarian hormones regulate expression of the focal adhesion proteins, talin and paxillin, in rat uterine luminal but not glandular epithelial cells.
During early pregnancy in the rat, focal adhesions disassemble in uterine luminal epithelial cells at the time of implantation to facilitate their removal so that the implanting blastocyst can invade into the underlying endometrial decidual cells. This study investigated the effect of ovarian hormones on the distribution and protein expression of two focal adhesion proteins, talin and paxillin, in rat uterine luminal and glandular epithelial cells under various hormone regimes. Talin and paxillin showed a major distributional change between different hormone regimes. Talin and paxillin were highly concentrated along the basal cell surface of uterine luminal epithelial cells in response to oestrogen treatment. However, this prominent staining of talin and paxillin was absent and also a corresponding reduction of paxillin expression was demonstrated in response to progesterone alone or progesterone in combination with oestrogen, which is also observed at the time of implantation. In contrast, the distribution of talin and paxillin in uterine glandular epithelial cells was localised on the basal cell surface and remained unchanged in all hormone regimes. Thus, not all focal adhesions are hormonally dependent in the rat uterus; however, the dynamics of focal adhesion in uterine luminal epithelial cells is tightly regulated by ovarian hormones. In particular, focal adhesion disassembly in uterine luminal epithelial cells, a key component to establish successful implantation, is predominantly under the influence of progesterone. |
Q:
Kendo UI Scheduler, Agenda View columns
in the Agenda view for the Kendo-UI scheduler, it displays "Date, Time, Event" columns. I also have an extra column that displays a different attribute of the event I am displaying.
What I want to accomplish is to switch the positioning of the extra column with the "Date" column. I had found a few things, such as kendo grid reordering and also using css to change placement in the scheduler, but neither method seems applicable to my situation. The css in particular was using float left/right, but that messes up the columns instead.
Below are links to the images of my issue as well as the classes they are assigned on the scheduler.
AgendaCols
classInfo
Also, as a bonus, I'd like to know if I can add a title in the orange part of the first picture, since it's currently blank while the other three each have a title that is built-in.
Thanks for your time,

A:
You can specify date: true specifically for the Agenda view by specifying this in the scheduler's options object:
views: [{
type: "agenda",
group: {
date: true
}
}, "week", "day"]
Notice that the group's date: true setting is inside the agenda entry in the views array.

"We get information from people in Lahore and Islamabad. There is a lot of frustration out there" Awab Alvi, blogger
As political tensions escalate in Pakistan, many bloggers have turned their efforts to providing live updates for citizens concerned about the situation.
The long march live update service compiles the latest news reports with comments and messages from people directly affected by the security measures.
Blogger Awab Alvi who publishes his, Teeth Maestro blog from Karachi, says he set it up because he felt the public needed one place where everything could be viewed and where information could be shared.
“We have people contributing key bits of information from news reports and people reporting from the ground… I got an SMS from one guy who was arrested just before it happened. We get information from people in Lahore and Islamabad. There is a lot of frustration out there,” he said.
Online activists are encouraging citizens to SMS their experiences and plans to a central number and their messages will be posted on a designated protest website.
Pakistanis are also posting their views and their updates on what they call the “long march” on microblogging site Twitter.
Student and social activist Awais Naseer is in Rawalpindi and has been regularly updating people following him on Twitter about the arrests in his hometown and in its twin city, Islamabad.
“I have direct contact with people in opposition political parties and in certain other organisations and the homes of these people, party workers, are being raided,” he told the BBC News website.
Also in Rawalpindi, political activist Faris Kasim said that he still planned to take part in the rally.
“We may not be able to gather now but we are keeping in touch through SMS. I have an air ticket for Lahore and I will leave for Islamabad.
“I don’t think us citizens will be targeted unless we were part of a big crowd. I know it can get dangerous,” he said
Yes we all our so concerned about thes CHARIAS heading the country. We must find leadership from our youth, especially educated, honest, middle class people. We must find leadership from ordinary ,hardworking people!
http://ebbsflow.blogspot.com/ raza
this is the problem with us meher that we always call the politicians by name and have u ever thought that how many times u actually participated in some rally or tried to convince the masses that u can be a better leader than the one we are having at the moment
i guess the answer is NO
so we all are at fault that these corrupt and selfish people are ruling us |
Facing flak from devotees and opposition parties in the row Sabarimala over allowing women of reproductive age into the Ayyappa temple, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has come down heavily on the Thazamon family which holds the Thantric rights over the family, reports The Times of India.
He was addressing a Left Democratic Front (LDF) rally in Pathanamthitta were he made the remarks against the family.
“They say that Lord Ayyappa is a celibate. But then there are other idols who are also eternal celibates all over the country. However, in such temples, the priest should also be a celibate. But we know the case of Sabarimala priests, they are not only in grihasthasramam (wedlock) but have been involved in prostitution”, the CM said. He also mocked the Pandalam Royal family going bankrupt and being forced to join the Travancore Kingdom. |

I had the grave misfortune of attending an early preview screening for
this piece of garbage. The audience I saw it with was less than
enthused as well. I credit them with having some actual taste. I must
disclose that I am a fan of the original film. In fact in the pantheon
of great vampire movies I feel that "Fright Night," stands tall as one
of the best ever. It's a very clever idea for a vampire film and the
original characters are a lot of fun. The original film is in many ways
a love letter to horror films and horror fans. The main character in
the original is a horror fan, his friends are horror fans and he
idolizes Peter Vincent who is the host of a late night horror movie
show. The film was post modern and gave the audience credit for having
some kind of prior knowledge. Now we are confronted with this brain
dead remake. It is hard to know where to begin in explaining how awful
this new film is.
We can start with the sad fact that the very essence of the original
characters, their arcs and their dynamics have been changed almost
completely. The main character, Charlie, is now a self-absorbed and
selfish jerk. Charlie treats his much more intelligent friend Ed like
human waste. Charlie has a hot girlfriend and is hanging out with a
much more popular crowd. Ed's intellect and peculiarities set him apart
so of course Charlie has to drop him as a friend. When a movie starts
off and your protagonist is a fake and hateful cretin it is a serious
problem.
Then there is the character of Evil Ed himself who is unfortunately
played by Christopher Mintz-Plasse. Mintz-Plasse has now given the
exact same tiresome performance in God knows how many movies. In the
original film Ed was a tragic character. In this one he is at best an
annoyance.
The main problem with the new characterizations lies in the
re-imagining of Peter Vincent. He is now a Las Vegas magician who
prances around like Russell Brand and almost seems like a complete
afterthought in the film. Vincent's arc in the original movie was
touching and central to the narrative's success. In this new
incarnation he hardly drives the film at all. Like every other poor
decision made by the filmmakers, the casting of David Tennant is merely
a stunt to draw the geek crowd in. He might as well not even be in the
picture.
Colin Farrell is not a disaster as Jerry Dandridge, but he is hardly a
success either. Chris Sarandon's portrayal was sly and full of little
touches that really sold the implicit threat of Dandridge. Farrell is a
very obvious actor and he gives a very obvious performance in this
movie. His character is really more of a serial killer/sexual predator
than a true master vampire. As the movie progresses he goes steadily
over the top and seems less and less threatening for doing so. By the
time he is chasing Charlie, Charlie's mom and Charlie's girlfriend on a
motorcycle he might as well be The Terminator. His supernatural
abilities rarely if ever come into play.
The film has zero atmosphere and barely comes to anything approaching
excitement. Product placement is rampant and so frequent that it
becomes hilarious. The fun, new-wave Gothic feel of the original film
has been replaced by a slick treatment more befitting a luxury car
commercial. There is no edge to this movie. The computer effects are
terrible and poorly rendered. The editing is desperate and the gotcha
moments are lame in the extreme. I was so bored watching it I resorted
to checking my watch every few minutes to see when the ordeal would be
over. If you are thinking about viewing this abomination I would
suggest streaming the original on Netflix or watching it for free on
Hulu. Your time would be better spent and you will not have wasted
thirty dollars or more on crappy, post-production 3D.

Child Molesting Defense
Defense cases involving child molesting or abuse, or allegations of sexual crimes whether they are allegations of Rape, Child Molesting, Sexual Misconduct with a Minor, Failure to Register as a Sex Offender, are very difficult to face.
Often, the mere allegation causes you to lose a job, as people assume you are guilty.
Very often, these cases can be settled short of a trial. If the proper lawyer is contacted early enough, the case may be dismissed even before filing. If charges are filed against you, it may stay permanently on your criminal history no matter if you were later found not guilty, or the case was dismissed.
The allegations of a child, filtered through an adult who has an agenda can very well result in criminal charges, an extremely high bond, loss of a job, and, if you are a resident alien, possible deportation.
My office has gained “not guilty” verdicts for sexual crimes like child molestation in counties not limited to Hamilton, Marion, and Vigo. In addition, through hard work and adequate preparation, my office has obtained pleas to lesser non-sexual charges.
Frequently, allegations of child molestation are made as a result of anger, revenge, jealousy, or as leverage in a child custody case. It is awful but true. With the right criminal defense attorney, your chances improve of staying with your family and avoiding becoming a registered sex offender.
But let me be clear. The outcome of these cases can affect the quality of the rest of your life more than any other case.
By law, if you are convicted of a number of sexual or violent crimes you will have to register both your home and your employment for a period from ten years to life. This registration can make it difficult to find a job, and the residency requirements regarding where convicted sex offenders can live make avoiding a conviction crucial.
In addition, some parole and probation officers will often find a technical violation in order to send you back to prison. This reduces their case load.
To understand how a charge of child molestation would apply to your situation, call my office or contact me through forms to set up a free evaluation of your case.

The present invention relates generally to sensor construction and use in communication systems and, in an embodiment described herein, more particularly provides a hydrophone for use in a downhole tool.
Many applications exist for hydrophones and other pressure pulse sensors. For example, in the downhole environment, a hydrophone may be used in a tool to receive signals transmitted as pressure pulses from the surface, a sensor may monitor seismic signals that create pressure waves in a wellbore, a drill string may include a sensor to monitor hydrostatic pressure waves during drilling, etc. Of course, applications exist in other environments as well.
Unfortunately, conventional hydrophones and other pressure sensors are typically somewhat fragile, do not respond well to low frequency pressure waves and are sensitive to movement of the tools carrying the sensors. The fragility and tool movement sensitivity problems are undesirable in any environment, but are particularly detrimental in the downhole environment where tool movement, shock and vibration, temperature extremes, etc. are common. Additionally, where a pressure sensor is used in a downhole signal transmission system, the lack of low frequency response is very undesirable since it is known that pressure pulses are attenuated far less at low frequencies and, therefore, low frequency signals may be transmitted greater distances. Thus, it would be a significant improvement in the art to provide a pressure sensor that is robust, is insensitive to movement of the tool carrying the sensor, and which has enhanced low frequency response.
Hydrophones used in downhole tools are usually each contained in a fluid-filled chamber, which is isolated from well fluids by a floating piston. Well fluids are typically conductive and sometimes corrosive, acidic, or otherwise harmful to sensors, and so the floating piston is used to separate the well fluids from the hydrophone sensor. The fluid contained in the chamber about the sensor is typically an inert oil, such as silicone oil.
This configuration, wherein a floating piston separates well fluids from oil in the sensor chamber, has several drawbacks. Maintenance of the sensor is inconvenient, since the chamber must be filled with the oil and evacuated of air each time the sensor is disturbed. There is a requirement that the special oil be available each time the sensor is serviced. Additionally, the floating piston must displace to transmit a pressure pulse thereacross and may hinder the detection of low frequency pressure pulses by the sensor, due to the mass of the piston and the friction between its seals and the bore in which it reciprocates.
Therefore, it may be seen that it would be very desirable to provide an improved and more convenient method of isolating a sensor from well fluids. Furthermore, it would be very desirable to enhance the low frequency response of a pressure sensor while obtaining the improved isolation from well fluids.
In carrying out the principles of the present invention, in accordance with an embodiment thereof, a hydrophone is provided which includes multiple piezoelectric crystals arranged in a stack. Methods associated with improved pressure sensors are also provided.
In one aspect of the present invention, a pressure pulse sensor is provided which includes at least one lead titanate piezoelectric crystal. The crystal is sensitive to axial forces applied thereto, but is relatively insensitive to lateral forces. The crystal is, therefore, insensitive to lateral accelerations of the fixture or tool holding the sensor. Preferably, the crystal is generally disc-shaped.
In another aspect of the present invention, a stack of piezoelectric crystals are used in a pressure pulse sensor. The crystals may be axially aligned and may be adhered to each other to thereby permit transmission of tensile forces therebetween. Acceleration of a tool in which the sensor is carried will preferably create tension in one portion of the crystal stack and compression in another portion of the stack, when the acceleration is along the axis of the stack. In this manner, the output of the crystals in tension due to the acceleration will cancel the output of the crystals in compression due to the acceleration, thereby eliminating any contribution of the tool movement to the sensor output.
In a further aspect of the present invention, the stack of piezoelectric crystals are mounted to a tool so that acceleration of the tool along an axis of the stack produces compressive forces in one portion of the stack and tensile forces in another portion of the stack. In several described embodiments, a mounting portion of the sensor is aligned with a center of mass of the crystal stack. When the center of mass of the crystal stack is accelerated along the stack axis by the mounting portion, one portion of the stack is in compression and another portion of the stack is in tension.
In yet another aspect of the present invention, a membrane may be used to isolate one or more piezoelectric crystals of a sensor from fluid surrounding the sensor. Preferably, the crystals are in direct contact with the membrane and the membrane completely encloses the crystals. The membrane does, however, permit transmission of fluid pressure pulses from the fluid to the crystals.
In still another aspect of the present invention, a membrane enclosing one or more piezoelectric crystals of a sensor is sealed to a bulkhead. At least one conductor extends outwardly from the crystals, through the membrane and into the bulkhead. The membrane may apply a compressive force to the bulkhead at a circuitous path formed on the bulkhead. Additionally, the membrane may extend into a passage formed in the bulkhead through which the conductor extends, and the membrane may be mixed with an insulating substance in the passage.
These and other features, advantages, benefits and objects of the present invention will become apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art upon careful consideration of the detailed description of representative embodiments of the invention hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings. |

At times it might seem to some of us as though the world's top boffins are slacking at their task of making our technology better and more advanced: but not today. Today we learn that some of them are on the track of something which everyone involved in IT must have been lusting after for years.
Wouldn't it be nice, you must have thought, if instead of all this plastic and silicon and glass and so forth, my kit - displays, chips, tablets, laptops, all of it - could be made instead of lovely concrete?
Well, maybe it can. Topflight brainboxes at the US government's Argonne National Lab have been toiling away on this for some time, and they believe they may have cracked a vital enabling tech trick - to wit, that of getting liquid cement to behave like a metal. According to an Argonne statement:
This makes cement a semi-conductor and opens up its use in the profitable consumer electronics marketplace for thin films, protective coatings, and computer chips.
Not only the chips and the casing of your device could be made of the rough grey material of tomorrow, but even the display.
“This new material has lots of applications, including as thin-film resistors used in liquid-crystal displays, basically the flat panel computer monitor that you are probably reading this from at the moment,” explains Chris Benmore, Argonne Lab physicist.
In essence the crafty trick perfected by Benmore and colleagues around the world is that of getting cement to become a "metallic glass", aka "liquid metal". Such materials have long been experimented on in labs, but so far it's only been possible to make them out of metal and they haven't yet taken the world by storm as many have thought they might - though the SIM removal tool in some early iPhones and 'Pads was made of such stuff.
“This phenomenon of trapping electrons and turning liquid cement into liquid metal was found recently, but not explained in detail until now,” Benmore says. “Now that we know the conditions needed to create trapped electrons in materials we can develop and test other materials to find out if we can make them conduct electricity in this way.”
The problem with using metallic glasses in the real world is that they need to made very hot to form, so hot that moulding and handling them becomes very difficult. Benmore and his colleagues overcame this with their test batches of liquid metal cement by using an "aerodynamic levitator with carbon dioxide laser beam heating" - though they don't specify (or know yet) whether this method would be suitable for industrial use.
All in all, the new super metallo cement glass stuff would seem to be a lot further from actual use than regular metalglass/liquidmetal - and even that seems to be somewhat bogged down. But the prospect of concrete* computing seems intriguing nonetheless. ®
Bootnote
*We do know that cement isn't the same as concrete. For those that don't, cement is mixed with "aggregate" - other stuff such as broken rock, pebbles or whatever else may be handy - to make concrete. Cement is basically the glue that holds concrete together. What the boffins are on about above is cement.
However should one in future make a display, chip or whatever using liquid-metallic cement tech, the finished product would surely also include other things just as concrete includes other things than cement. So it might seem fair enough to call it a "concrete computer". |
Science signals a new understanding of marihuana.
Some recent scientific advances in the study of the cannabinoids are outlined. The mode of action of marihuana and the cannabinoids has now been described. They belong to a new class of drug that acts on a hitherto undescribed neuro-physiological system. An endogenous neurotransmitter or neuromodulator for this system has been isolated, identified and named "anandamide". These findings throw new light and imbue new confidence for the future of the therapeutic application of compounds derived from and related to the cannabinoids and anandamide. An outline is also provided of the current knowledge and future potential of cannabinoids in therapeutics. The effect of the current legal classification of the cannabinoids on the research and development of these compounds is discussed. |
Recurrent primary mesenteric venous thrombosis.
We have reported a case of recurrent primary mesenteric venous thrombosis resulting in small bowel infarction. Resection of necrotic bowel, anastomosis, and postoperative anticoagulation remain the cornerstone of management. Delay in diagnosis and treatment contributes to the high mortality. A history of peripheral thrombosis, antithrombin III deficiency, hypovolemia, or carcinoma in susceptible patients with abdominal pain should arouse suspicion of ischemic bowel. |

Каким образом мне получить значения этого GridView1 для дальнейшей обработки в функции? (Сортировка, фильтрация, перелистывание и другое).
A:
Короткий вариант - никак. Механизм датабайндинга в ASP.NET Web Forms для этого не приспособлен.
Как работает датабайндинг:
Вы выставляете у грида DataSource и вызываете DataBind(). Он пробегается по данным, достает из них то, что должно быть отображено, преобразует в свойства конкретных контролов - Label.Text и сохраяет их во ViewState. За счет этого данные в гриде не сбрасываются при постбеках - нажатиях на кнопки на странице - грид просто рендерит сохраненные значения контролов.
Т.е. сохраняется только то, что видно в выходном html - лабелы в в таблице на первой странице грида.
DataSource во вьюстейт не сохраняется. Совсем. Если вы хотите отсортировать, отфильтровать, перелистать, сделать что-то еще - вам нужно заново выбрать данные, отфильтровать или отсортировать их, опять положить в Grid.DataSource и вызвать Grid.DataBind()

Controlling interparticle spacing among metal nanoparticles through metal-catalyzed decomposition of surrounding polymer matrix.
Systematic and reproducible control over average interparticle spacing of Pt, Ni, and Cu nanoparticles embedded in polyimide thin layers was achieved. The metal-catalyzed decomposition of polyimide matrixes surrounding metal nanoparticles causes a decrease in the composite layer thickness, while maintaining the size of nanoparticles. This ability provides an effective methodology for the preparation of metal/polymer nanocomposites with tailored microstructures and holds great promise toward the fundamental understanding of the physical interactions among metal nanoparticles. |

An unusual cause of epidemic thyrotoxicosis.
We describe the case of four patients consulting for headache and tachycardia of brutal onset. Their biological data were compatible with primary hyperthyroidism with low TSH and high T4 serum levels. Serum thyroglobulin level was low and Tc-scintigraphy showed decreased uptake with a homogenous pattern. These results allowed to conclude a thyrotoxicosis caused by thyroid hormones intake. History taking revealed consumption of beef neck meat containing all or parts of the bovine thyroid gland. Evolution was favourable with beta-blockers. A literature review of « hamburger thyrotoxicosis » is presented. |
David Cameron Losing Allies in Anti-Juncker Campaign
The opposition to Jean-Claude Juncker’s European Commission President candidacy is increasingly waning, much to the disliking of UK Prime Minister David Cameron.
Italy was seen as Cameron’s strong ally in voting against Juncker’s nomination, but it now seems as though Prime Minister Matteo Renzi could be heading in another direction. On Wednesday, he met with European Council President Herman Van Rompuy, where the two reportedly discussed next week’s EU summit for designating an EC presidential candidate.
Renzi’s demands are that the next Commission will focus on reforms that would move away from the austerity policies. He did not, however, clarify his position on Juncker.
Two of Cameron’s other allies in the anti-Juncker campaign, the Netherlands and Sweden, are also softening to the prospect of the ex-Luxembourg Prime Minister’s nomination and “do not rule it out as a possibility”, EurActiv informed.
Both the Dutch and Swedish Prime Ministers were cautious in their latest comments, saying that the content of the upcoming discussions will be far more important than the names put forward.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, a supporter of Juncker’s candidacy, has criticized Cameron’s approach and is hoping for a sooner decision, in order to avoid an institutional crisis in Brussels.

Maricel is joining our family this coming Saturday! Isaac is so excited. I've prepared a welcome gift for her and I'm going to get Isaac to help wrap the gift tonight!
I had been preparing Isaac for her arrival since the day we've picked her. He's seen her photo, liked get smile and clothes, even told me he wanted his mattress and hers to 'join' together - in his own words - 'no need to leave a gap in between'.
I guess it's nice to have someone else to listen to him talk other than two parents who are always preoccupied with daily stressors lolz.
I hope she would be nice too... And not give us too much trouble like what many detractors of "getting helpers" are saying...
I hope she won't miss her children too much... Poor girl - two kids around my sons' age group.
I hope chris would take the infringement of privacy gracefully...
Sigh. So many things to worry about. When are we going to quit worrying and enjoy coupledom? |
Q:
Is this structure valid in XML RPC?
Is it valid in XML-RPC to have an unbounded array of elements without having them inside of a array/data parent? From my limited experience with XML-RPC I have seen that arrays should be listed as such:
<member>
<name>Name</name>
<value>
<array>
<data>
<value>
<string>Red</string>
</value>
<value>
<string>Blue</string>
</value>
</data>
</array>
</value>
</member>
...with the parent Name having children strings Red and Blue. However, the 3rd party RPC service we are integrating with sends arrays of unbounded elements without having them inside of the array/data element, but inside a struct, e.g.
<member>
<name>Name</name>
<value>
<struct>
<member><name>Option0</name>
<value><string>Red</string>
</member>
<member><name>Option1</name>
<value><string>Blue</string>
</member>
</struct>
</value>
</member>
...With the values of Option1 and Option2 encapsulated inside of a struct.
The problem I am facing is that when designing the classes that will be serialized, I would have to design my class such as
private string Option0
private string Option1
...
...instead of:
private string[] Name
As I do not know the number of unbounded fields coming back in the structure, it seems the right way to accomplish the task would be to have an array of strings to enumerate through. However, there are no arrays in the resoponse XML, just structures with a dynamic number of fields. Because of that, I would have to list a large number of fields to conform to the structure, even though it's not really a structure, but an array. Is there something I am missing with the XML-RPC?
A:
Yes it is quite valid XML-RPC struct. We also have such case and are using Cook Computings' XML-RPC.NET. It works perfectly. Check it, there is a special class there called XmlRpcStruct. You just need to use it in your XML-RPC method request or response.

Spiral-shaped iatrogenic arterial dissection during superior mesenteric arteriography: a latent risk of diagnostic angiography using the power injector.
We report a rare case of iatrogenic arterial dissection of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) during diagnostic angiography. A conventional superior mesenteric arteriogram obtained using an automated power injector revealed an arterial dissection 2s after the initiation of contrast-medium injection. This case indicates that although careful catheter manipulations during angiography are essential, certain unavoidable complications may occur. |

Q:
Is it possible to send a pygame key event through bluetooth?
I dont have any trial code to show as I dont know where to start even after researching this, but what I'm asking is if it's possible to send a pygame event.type like pygame.KEYDOWN from let's say a raspberry pi Zero to a pc using a bluetooth connection. So that the pc where the game is being run receives a event in pygame.event.get() to handle whatever code you have connected to that event.
Is this at all possible? If so, how would one send such an event? Establishing a bluetooth connection isnt the big issue, as there is documentation about that to be found.
A:
Sure, just use pygame.event.post to put an event into the event queue.
pygame.event.get will receive it as usual. You maybe want to create a second thread to listen for your bluetooth events, and then just post a new pygame event in response.

CREW Asks FCC to Deny Renewal of News Corp.’s Broadcast License
Today, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) filed a petition with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), asking the agency to deny renewal of three broadcast licenses held by Fox television stations. Because their licenses are set to expire in October, two Fox stations in Washington, D.C. and one in Baltimore – which are wholly owned subsidiaries of News Corp. – filed to renew the licenses this past June.
CREW is objecting to the renewals because under U.S. law, broadcast frequencies may be used only by people of good “character,” who will serve “the public interest,” and speak with “candor.” Significant character deficiencies may warrant disqualification from holding a license.
“It is well-established that News Corp. has been involved in one of the biggest media scandals of all time. Its reporters hacked voicemails and bribed public officials while top executives – including Rupert Murdoch – either approved the conduct or turned a blind eye,” said CREW Executive Director Melanie Sloan. “To say those responsible are not of good character is a colossal understatement – ‘despicable’ and ‘loathsome’ are more apt. Retaining U.S. broadcast licenses is a privilege, not a right. Based on its egregious actions, News Corp. should lose that privilege.” |
Melania Trump’s fashion choice once again caught everyone’s attention Monday when she and her President Trump welcomed the President of Panama to the White House.
POTUS and FLOTUS welcomed President Juan Carlos Varela and Mrs. Varela at the South Portico of the White House Monday morning, and the dress the first lady was wearing was simply breathtaking.
Melania was dressed in a form-fitting, off-the-shoulder, Carolina blue dress that came down just to her knees. Mrs. Varela wore a green dress of similar length for the occasion.
The president and the first lady posed for a few photos outside with their guests before going inside and visiting in the Oval Office.
The first lady officially moved into the White House just last week. She and Barron Trump had stayed in New York City so that he could finish the school year before moving to Washington.
Melania seems to to be adjusting to her full-time role as first lady with ease. |
[Characteristics of pharmacotherapy of epilepsy in the elderly].
Parallel to the steady increase of the percentage of elderly people, treatment of epilepsy in the elderly is becoming more common. The pharmacotherapy of epilepsy in the elderly differs in some aspects from treatment in younger patients. In general, due to pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes with reduction of metabolism and elimination, dose reductions are suitable to avoid drug intoxications. A standard treatment rule is to "start low and go slow". As the prognosis is favourable in the majority of patients the choice of a drug is influenced not only by its efficacy but also by possible side effects. |

How to hide my own page (Qt Installer Framework)
I have a page with serial number checking (SerialCodePage). It is implemented and added in installer code after IntroductionPage.
This page is needed for Pro version, and for Lite I would like to hide it, without recompile installer code.
I tried to implement it with the help of installer.removeWizardPage (component, "SerialCodePage"); in componentscript and controlscript, but the function always returns false.
How do I hide this page?
A:
Apparently removeWizardPage works only for pages added in QJS.
In my case, I had to add this page to ScriptEngine::generateQInstallerObject and use installer.setDefaultPageVisible(QInstaller.SerialCode, false);

If You Think You're Good At Multitasking, You Probably Aren't
Everybody complains that people shouldn't talk on cellphones while driving. And yet it seems pretty much everybody does it.
That may be because so many of us think we're multitasking ninjas, while the rest of the people nattering away while driving are idiots.
But scientists say that the better people think they are at multitasking, the worse they really are at juggling.
Researchers at the University of Utah wanted to find out which personalities were more likely to try to do two tasks at once. They're keenly interested in people who talk on the phone or text while driving, since there's plenty of data that even using a hands-free phone boosts the risks of accidents.
That bit isn't exactly breaking news.
For quite a few years, researchers have been making the case that people who drive while using phones drive as badly as people who are legally drunk. But we persist in thinking we can handle it.
How come? The Utah folks speculated that multitaskers would be more apt to test high for traits like risk-taking, sensation-seeking and impulsivity. Turns out the researchers were right.
They asked student volunteers whether they used cellphones while driving, and whether they were good at multitasking. Then they tested the students' multitasking ability by asking them to solve math problems while remembering random strings of letters.
They found that the people who multitasked the most in real life — the impulsive risk-takers — were actually much worse at juggling tasks than people who rarely drove while phoning.
Even worse, these demon multitaskers thought they were terrific at it, though the cold, hard data proved they weren't.
"People don't multitask because they're good at it," says David Sanbonmatsu, a professor of psychology at the University of Utah and lead author of the study, which was published online in the journal PLOS One. "They do it because they are more distracted. They have trouble inhibiting the impulse to do another activity."
Seventy percent of the study participants, all college undergraduates, said they thought they were better than average at multitasking. Of course, that's statistically impossible — a drivers' ed version of Lake Wobegon, with all multitasking drivers above average.
Texting drivers aren't the only ones who think they're aces at jobs they're actually flubbing. There's plenty of other research showing that people tend to overestimate personal attributes like attractiveness and talent. That proved true in this study, too. It was the non-risk-taking non-texters who actually turned out to be better at multitasking. They could maintain focus and get the job done.
"People sometimes think multitasking means greater productivity," Sanbonmatsu told Shots. "That's not what the findings in the literature say at all. A lot of times people multitask because they can't focus on the task that's most important to them."
Sanbonmatsu and his colleagues are now going to look into why we keep driving while texting, even though we know it's dangerous. Maybe it's because we think that, unlike the other mopes on the highway, we're just darned good at it. |
Granulocytic sarcoma of the lung in acute myeloid leukemia.
Granulocytic sarcoma, an uncommon solid, extra-medullary tumor is a rare presentation of acute myeloid leukemia. A seven-year old boy admitted to the hospital for treatment of leukemia having radiological findings of consolidation in one lung. A bronchoalveolar lavage was done which was negative for tubercular, bacterial, and fungal infection but showed blast cells. On day seven of chemotherapy, a repeat chest x-ray showed resolution of the lesion. A high-resolution Computerized tomography of chest repeated after one month of induction showed resolution. A consolidation on chest radiograph in acute myeloid leukemia can be a granulocytic sarcoma of the lung; a bronchoalveolar lavage may be offered to confirm or refute this diagnosis. |

Reset default key binding zsh
I've modified a key binding and know I don't know how to return to what it did before.
Basically I've been trying what some key bindings did and which one worked for me and know I want to go back to the default.
A:
bindkey -d
Deletes all existing keymaps and reset to the default state. (as quoted from info zsh bindkey.
You an also always restart zsh:
exec zsh
To know what is bound by default to a given key or sequence, you can do:
(bindkey -d; bindkey '^A')
(replace ^A with the representation of the character or character sequence that is sent upon pressing the key. ^A itself is the representation of the SOH control character (0x1 byte value) that is generally sent by terminals when you press Ctrl + A).
