Currently, makeup has become an indispensible part of people's daily life. There are many varieties of cosmetics, such as powder, liquid and paste. To facilitate the use of cosmetics, people usually make different cosmetics into different shapes and fill them in suitable containers. Wherein the cosmetics with the shape of powder stick, such as lipstick, lip cream, concealer, skin whitening stick and sun cream stick, are filled in the powder stick tube, collectively known as lipstick tube, to be designed and manufactured.
Currently, the lipstick tubes on the market usually include a cover, a mechanism and a base, wherein the mechanism includes an A-shell, an innerbody, a cup and a spiral, and the assembled mechanism is sleeved in the base and then matches with the cover to form the finished product of lipstick tube. At present, the lubricating oil and glue are used to realize a smoothly, flexibly relative movement and fixation among components in most lipstick tubes. Therefore, such defects, such as increased production cost, complex process, and easily causing pollution, may occur.
The patent numbered CN201767295U discloses a mechanism of a lipstick tube, including an A-shell, a spiral, an innerbody and a cup, which are coaxially sleeved from outside to inside in sequence, wherein the A-shell is fixedly connected with the spiral; a spiral guide groove is provided on the inner circumference of the spiral, a notch is provided on the wall surface of the innerbody along the axial direction thereof, a bulge which passes through the notch and extends into the guide groove is provided on the outer circumference of the cup, and a plurality of bumps which are fixed on the inner circumference of the spiral or on the outer circumference of the innerbody are provided between the bottom end of the spiral and the innerbody.
The plurality of bumps, provided between the bottom end of the spiral and the innerbody, of the mechanism of the abovementioned utility model adjusts the distance between the spiral and the innerbody, so as to control the friction and the torsion during rotation between the spiral and the innerbody. However, the bumps are poor in adjustment of themselves and are easy to jam when the spiral and the innerbody move relative to each other, so that the lubricants are needed, thereby causing the hidden trouble of polluting the beauty cream.
The patent numbered CN201533649U discloses a powder stick tube, including an A-shell, a spiral, an innerbody and a cup, wherein the A-shell is sleeved outside the periphery of the spiral and is fixed with the spiral; the spiral is sleeved outside the periphery of the innerbody and is axially fixed with the innerbody; the cup is inside the innerbody and is provided with a bulge; and the innerbody is provided with an axial straight slot. A spiral guide groove is provided on the inner wall of the spiral; the bulge of the cup passes through the straight slot on the innerbody to fall into the guide groove of the spiral; and the spiral and the innerbody are axially fixed in the following way: an outward expanding ring is provided at the top of the innerbody, wherein the outer diameter of the expanding ring is greater than the inner diameter of the spiral, and the top of the spiral is adjacent to the lower side of the expanding ring; and a ring of plate-like bulge is provided on the circumference of the innerbody, wherein the plate-like bulge is between the innerbody and the spiral and is in an arc shape along the axial section of the innerbody and the spiral.
In the solution above, because the ring of the plate-like bulge is formed on the circumference of the innerbody, wherein the plate-like bulge is between the innerbody and the spiral and is in an arc shape along the axial section of the innerbody and the spiral, an expanding force may be generated between the innerbody and the spiral so as to ensure the generation of a certain torsion and a lubricant and smooth hand feeling, thereby reducing the use of lubricants.
In the structure above, through adding the plate-like bulge, it provides the expanding force generated between the spiral and the innerbody, so as to reduce the use of lubricants, whereas, the A-shell and the spiral are still fixed by glue. During production, it is likely to pollute the beauty cream, so that such hidden trouble such as the deterioration of the beauty cream may exist. |
Health care companies at this year's J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference celebrated the Republican tax overhaul and trumpeted optimistic views of their future financial power. But as more Americans become unable to afford drug prices, hospital bills, deductibles and copays — and as they voice their anger — there is sentiment brewing in the industry that a day of reckoning will come.
Key quote: "We are in the middle of a bubble in all health care asset classes," said Bijan Salehizadeh, a health care investor at NaviMed Capital. "Everyone knows it, but no one knows how it will end."
What we're hearing: The one part of health care that multiple people at the conference said desperately needed to change was pharmaceuticals.
Many companies continue to hike list prices on generics and brand-name drugs, game the system by extending old drug patents, and are coming out with relatively fewer breakthroughs compared with a much higher number of "me-too" drugs that provide limited benefits over existing drugs.
Firms that are developing innovative treatments are commanding prices that surpass many estimates of what is reasonable.
Drug companies looking to get bought out are expecting high takeout prices based on the assumption current pricing tactics will remain the status quo.
Yes, but: As many presentations from the J.P. Morgan event confirmed, problems aren't confined to the pharmaceutical industry.
Hospital profits and cash reserves are hovering near historic highs.
Premium rates reflect the high cost of health care services and drugs, but observers have raised questions about whether insurers are getting the best deals possible, and whether narrow networks have been helpful.
Independent Medicare policymakers continue to push for regulatory changes to nursing homes, home health companies and other non-hospital providers that are earning sizable profit margins from the government.
"Providers are part of it," Rod Hochman, CEO of Providence St. Joseph Health, a large not-for-profit hospital system based on the West Coast, acknowledged in an interview. "But also pharma has to be part of the solution. Insurers have to be part of the solution."
Spencer Perlman, a health care analyst at Veda Partners who wasn't at the J.P. Morgan meeting, has long said companies that obstruct competition or play with regulatory loopholes have been playing with fire.
"So much of current health care valuations are based on revenue and earnings projections that are generated by reimbursement arbitrage, legal maneuvering and/or rent-seeking behaviors," Perlman said.
Get smart: Health care eats up almost one-fifth of the U.S. economy. The companies that get a slice of that pie don't have incentives to give it up. Even if Congress or federal agencies intervene with new policies, look for many players to point fingers at industries they believe are bigger abusers — like the current fight between drug companies and pharmacy benefit managers. |
Vince Gilligan Would Love to See a Saul Goodman ‘Breaking Bad’ Spin-Off (Join the Club)
Bob Odenkirk’s Saul Goodman is one the best characters on television like ever and it seems like Breaking Bad’s creator Vince Gilligan understands that. “I would love to see a Saul Goodman spin-off show when it’s all said and done,” Gilligan told Entertainment Weekly. He continued:
“I think that would present itself pretty nicely, storywise. While Breaking Bad is by design a show that is finite and limited in its scope — it’s a story of transformation that cannot go on forever — I think a Saul Goodman show could have great legs. I love the idea of a lawyer who will do anything to avoid going to court. He’s always going to settle on the courthouse steps.”
Now all Saul needs to do is stay alive. Gilligan explains: “No viewer should breathe a sigh of relief that Saul won’t expire by the end of Breaking Bad.” Adding: “Everything is on the table… Who knows where Breaking Bad will take us?” When asked, Odenkirk agreed: “Saul has got to survive this show first. And if he doesn’t, then maybe it can be done as a prequel.” Or maybe we’ll have Zombie Saul, Attorney At Law, in which the show merges with The Walking Dead. All of these are great ideas! |

Molecular and immunological characterisation of a polymorphic cytosolic fatty acid binding protein from the human blood fluke of humans, Schistosoma japonicum.
Most organisms obtain their fatty acids through their diet or by de novo synthesis, but human blood flukes belonging to the genus Schistosoma lack the oxygen-dependent pathways required for the synthesis of sterols and fatty acids so they are entirely dependent on their hosts for these and other complex lipids. Fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) of the FABP/P2/CRABP/CRBP family of beta-barrel cytosolic lipid binding proteins (cLBP) appear to be particularly important to schistosomes in the uptake, transport and compartmentalisation of host-derived fatty acids and may provide important targets for immuno- and chemotherapy. Here we describe the isolation of a set of cDNAs prepared from the Asiatic schistosome, Schistosoma japonicum, which encode two groups of cLBPs based on sequence homology and unique cDNA restriction sites. Representative clones from the two groups, one encoding a complete Sj-FABP (F10), and the other encoding a deletion mutant (F25) were characterised at the nucleic acid level by Southern and Northern hybridisation analysis, and at the protein level by immunoblotting. The presence and size of introns in the genes encoding F10 and F25 were determined and, because of the interest in the Schistosoma mansoni FABP homologue (Sm14) as a putative vaccine candidate, the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of the two proteins were also evaluated. A particularly interesting finding was the degree of Sj-FABP amino acid sequence polymorphism found to occur within the S. japonicum worm population, which appears to be greater than that described from cLBPs from vertebrates or, indeed, any other group of organisms investigated to date. |
3D is the next step for TV and Spanish satellite operator Hispasat does not want to be left behind. The company has begun to test the technology through taking part in the project “3DLive". In this project the participants study and define the new broadcasting services of 3D via satellite. The project also analyzes the problems in relation to the new technologies of compression and image transmission in 3D by means of different types of networks (satellite, IPTV, etc.).
“3Dlive” is co-financed by Spain's Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Commerce within the 'Plan Avanza I+D' for the Information Society. The project is being coordinated by the country's main telco Telefónica.
The participation of the country's satellite operator means the beginning of new investigation lines for new services such as digital cinema in 3D and the reception of 3D TV in homes. In the frame of the DVB group Hispasat is part of a working group recently created to follow the evolution and developments in relation to this new TV format. |
Q:
which is best from this xml or json to use in web application all the devices
I want to know that which technology is best use in web application desktop, mobile etc from this xml or json
A:
In my opinion JSON is easier to parse on the client (Javascript), and more concise (smaller size) so unless you really need to output XML for legacy reasons, go with JSON.
(The question does not provide a lot of context so the answer's general too!)

Back in the early 2000s there was a "3D" browser where you got to surf the web

while pages fly by the sky. If I had a faster computer and connection at the
time, it might have been fun, but the UI seemed fundamentally detrimental to
navigating the internet. Similarly, this is fun, but I would love to see a
detailed write up on how this is used and what we can do with this

Over the past year, there has been renewed conversation about the possibility of bringing a Canadian Football League franchise to Atlantic Canada. You’ve likely seen the news coverage, or discussed this topic with your friends and family. Maybe you’ve even met with us.
It’s time we introduced ourselves more broadly. We are Maritime Football Limited Partnership and we’re hoping to capitalize on the enthusiasm and momentum in the region to land a CFL franchise on the East Coast.
We are an ownership group of three individuals – Anthony LeBlanc, the former owner and CEO of an NHL franchise with roots in New Brunswick; Bruce Bowser, a national business owner from Dartmouth; and Gary Drummond, an entrepreneur and former NHL owner and executive from Western Canada.
This group has ownership experience and is connected to professionals in the sports and entertainment space, and specialists in the area of development and stadium construction. With the support of Atlantic Canadian advisers and our growing network in the region, we have been developing a plan and concept for both a team and multi-use stadium that Atlantic Canadians can truly be proud of.
As Canada’s national league, the CFL aspires to establish franchises and build their brand from coast to coast. We’ve been working closely with the CFL and they tell us players want to play in Atlantic Canada, and beyond that, fans want the league to continue to grow and expand east.
Grey Cup playoffs will grow to include an even number of teams, and CFL fans from across the country will have an opportunity to experience the enthusiasm and famous hospitality this region has to offer. Atlantic Canada will finally have an opportunity to be part of this annual national tradition.
But in order to make this vision a reality, we need a stadium. A stadium is about more than football. It has to be. This can be an asset for Nova Scotia to leverage — to attract people and sustainable private investment; an entertainment venue; a training and research facility; and an anchor for international games and sporting events. Professional sports can be a catalyst for both economic growth and civic pride.
Maritime Football Limited Partnership will be contributing significant private capital to help fund the construction and operation of the stadium.
But let’s be clear: to make this vision a reality, a certain degree of public investment will be necessary. We’re learning about the challenges and opportunities for both Halifax Regional Municipality and the provincial government — and how this vision could align with their priorities and fit within planning frameworks.
We’ve explored the desire of Atlantic Canadians to attend games and we’ve studied the proposed economic impact of a CFL franchise on the Nova Scotia economy. We’ve gleaned valuable information from the experiences of other jurisdictions. This is a big undertaking and there’s more work to do. We know we need to be thoughtful, we need to be deliberate, and most importantly, we need to be transparent.
We will be providing regular updates and encouraging you to engage with us and share your questions and thoughts. Your feedback and participation throughout this process will be invaluable. Please follow us on Twitter (@MaritimeFtball) and sign up on our website to receive updates: www.maritimefootball.ca

Exploring land recently released by ice (geologically speaking)
Category Archives: Nature
Without snowshoes I’d soon wear myself out walking over this field of new snow. Even with them it is a job reaching a place that offers a nice view of the glacier reflected in a partially frozen eddy. No little dog follows behind. She waits on the beaten path giving me her “are you crazy” look. Is she wise or lazy? It could be either given her age of eleven and a half years.
She didn’t act her age as she leapt the car and galloped down the trail. When I caught with her, she was rolling on her back, a look of bliss showing on her snow-covered face. Yesterday’s storm added five inches of snow to that already coating the trailside trees and the ground. The added weight forced the alders over the trail where they form temporary barriers to me but not the low-slung Aki.
The sun floats like a pearly disk in a flat gray sky and then muscles through briefly to throw cast shadows in the woods. We are alone on the moraine, having missing the morning rush of dog walkers who level the snowy trail for Aki. She sniffs the tracks left last night by the local beavers but we see no other sign of wildlife. The recent cold snap has all but silenced the river. There should be black-capped chickadees or juncos hunting for food but I hear nothing but faint airplane noise and the scraping of Aki’s paws as she digs in the new snow.
Aki growls her way down our home street. I look around and can find no dog close enough to hear her trash talk. Then a furry black blur tears past us, gives Aki a ferocious snarl and ducks down a set of stairs. My little dog continues on, pulling like a sled dog down the street. I have to do a shuffle-slide to keep from falling. I wonder if the snow is energizing her.
Quarter-sizes flakes drift down on us, melting on Aki’s back as soon as they touch it. It accumulates on the leafless limbs of alders and cottonwoods, making each tree look like an Escher print. We power up Gastineau Avenue, passing the owners of a jeep being helped by two garbage truck guys to free it from a snow bank.
Further along the avenue an unkindness of ravens forms around an abandoned package of meat. One sits nearby on a sidewalk railing, plucking snowflakes out of the air with its beak. Over on Sixth Street the faces on a totem pole have new, white beards.
Aki slips on the icy trail that hugs an oxbow curve of the Mendenhall River. The little dog barely notices her misstep. She is too interested in the scents left behind on this heavy-use dog-walking trail. The dogs that scented the trail have all gone. If not for the shouts of men tending the salmon smolt pens and the airplane noise, we might have some solitude.
I am drawn to this trail on calm, sunny days when, as now, the river is at flood tide. Hungry seals might pop up at any time. Ducks could land any second. I look and find the great blue heron along the river shore. At first it stands tall and then curls back it’s long neck into a heat-conserving crouch. Backlit by the morning sun, it is only a black silhouette on the snowy beach.
Last night’s hard freeze has preserved the prints of boots and paws left during yesterday’s thaw. Aki is light enough to trot across the crust without breaking through. But for me, it’s “crunch, crunch, crunch” or slip, slip, slip. The tide forces the river into low spots on the trail. We would be blocked by one if it not for a homespun bridge fashioned from driftwood. I use it to make a successful crossing but Aki stays put. I have to re-cross, pick up the little poodle-mix, and carry her across.
We drop down to the river’s edge so I can enjoy views of the glacier and mountains reflected in the water. Aki is not impressed. We must be beyond the prime dog use area. After I carry her back across the little driftwood bridge, she dashes back the way we came.
Aki shows more enthusiasm for this adventure than I feel as we leave the trailhead. Snow is turning to rain as the little dog and I head into the Treadwell woods. Aki minces down the trail, each step pushing through soaked snow to a thin layer of water beneath. Glad I am wearing waterproof boots, I slosh along behind her.
The poodle-mix dashes toward a urine-yellow Rorschach design in the snow left by the dog of an early morning walker. Similar splotches mark the way to the beach. We slog past roofless ruins and twisted rails of the mining car tracks, all made almost beautiful by mantles of fresh snow. White on rust makes a pleasing combination.
From its perch atop the old ventilation tower, our resident eagle watches us leave the woods and move onto the snow-covered beach. His puffed up chest feathers make me think of Buck Mulligan descending Joyce’s Dublin tower. Aki cares little for literary references so I don’t mention it to her.
When a golden lab approaches, Aki waits in silence rather than barking her usual welcome. You are learning some caution little dog. The meeting goes well and she acts more like her old self when we meet a black-husky-mix. Maybe you are learning to discern rather than to trust that all dogs are potential friends.
After the husky-mix follows its people into the woods, Aki and I have the beach to ourselves. The two ravens that usually greet us have flown. No belted kingfisher chits at us from an overhanging branch. No wind hurries away the loose pans of ice that float around the ruined wharf pilings. If I turn around I could see trucks being loaded at the barge dock across Gastineau Channel and the blocky shapes of the Juneau skyline. But ahead to the south there is only the white-covered beach dotted with broken pilings, Gastineau Channel, and glaciated mountains partially obscured by mist. We move south until we run out of beach.
Yesterday the weather service promised that a foot of new snow would fall today. But sometime during the night moist air from the Pacific pushed up the temperature to above freezing. It’s snowing now but rain is not far away—rain that will soften the lake ice and wash away the snow we have been enjoying for the past few weeks. There is only one thing for a little dog and her people to do—try to sneak in one more ski adventure.
We drive out to Mendenhall Lake and park near Skater’s Cabin, which is across the lake from the glacier and its mountain consorts. Low clouds dump snow on the lake and obscure the view of anything more than a kilometer away. The resulting flat light would make it hard for us to see the trail, which is already filling in with soft, wet snow. We opt to ski through the campground. This pleases Aki because it is a popular dog use area.
On a downhill section of the trail, Aki flies by me as she follows her other human. In seconds they are out of sight. I see them again after I round a turn and begin a gentle uphill climb. At the top I learn from Aki’s other human that a goshawk had just flown low across the trail in front of them. Last winter Aki and I had watched a goshawk rip off strips of flesh from a snowshoe hare. I wonder if Aki just saw the bid bird again. I also wonder why the goshawk flew in front of them instead of me. On the Kuskokwim, where we once lived, the elders preached that the second boat always gets the moose. Moose and other animals will often stay hidden in the woods while the first boat or skier passes by. They can often be caught on the trail by a person dawdling along behind. Most of the time the elders are right. I see a lot while dawdling.
Aki has me worried. I’m pulling on my boots near the front door. Normally my little dog would be here, waiting for me to fasten on her harness. Is she worried that a dog will go after here on today’s walk. She appears, tail wagging, when I slip on a warm parka. Relieved, I drive us north on the Douglas Highway, which offers filtered views of Gastineau Channel. Aki groans when I stop the car to watch pans of new ice riding the incoming tide up channel.
The poodle-mix jumps out of the car when we reach the trailhead and trots down to the beaver pond. This time she freely follows me onto the ice and even dashes ahead after I cross the pond and start up a muskeg stream. There is nothing unusual about the scenery. The stream leads us onto a muskeg meadow dotted with small bull pines. We could be on any one of a dozen such meadows. But this one is unreachable until the pond and stream freeze over. In a month, or even a week, the ice will melt, closing off access to the meadow.
While Aki catalogues the smells, I take off my hat and listen. It’s all silence at first and then, from far off float the working songs of wrens and ravens.
This is not Aki’s favorite type of adventure. Few dog walkers use the trail so she finds little scent to sniff. But I am ready for some solitude and a chance to use my skis as exploring tools, not sport’s equipment. From my point of view, we have been spending way too much time lately on the Mendenhall Lake ski tracks. My little dog had treasured every moment of it.
I slide my skis across Peterson Creek and around a salt chuck (lake) to the small waterfall that drains it. To conserve energy, Aki trots in my tracks, darting ahead only once when she spots movement in the spruce forest that borders the salt chuck. It’s probably one of the many otters that den nearby.
Careful not to break through the thin ice covering the waterfall, I lead Aki around a rocky headland to where we can see Lynn Canal. It is empty except for a single golden eye duck, which gives me a hard look before flipping into the water.
After crossing into the forest and over a frosty meadow Aki and I watch a skier being pulled up Peterson Creek by two husky dogs. Aki makes a half-hearted dashed toward the trio but is soon stopped by deep snow. We drop down onto the creek and head for the car and are halfway there when the huskies approach from behind. Aki turns back to bark hello. One of the huskies clamps her in his jaws and then quickly lets go. Aki howls an alarm and runs back to me. Now she is asleep in her house with nothing wounded but her pride. |

The Pasir Ris-Punggol cycling trail would be familiar to cyclists living in the two districts. However, it can be a pretty remote trail to find if you live in the Pasir Ris end and do not know it. If you're cycling in the nighttime, it's best to equip yourself with a strong bike head lamp as it can get pretty dark on certain parts of the trail. |
Q:
How to insert a new node to a single-linked list, where we do not have a pointer pointed to its head?
Given a pointer that points to an intermediate node (non-head, non-tail) on a single-link list . How to insert a new node just before the node pointed to by the given pointer ?
Example,
Given single-linked list:
A -> B -> C -> D -> E
Given a pointer pointed to C (ptr = &C), and a new node F, how to get
A -> B -> F -> C -> D -> E
Attention: we do not have pointers pointed to A.
Thanks
A:
You should be able to implement this by inserting a new C node to the right, and writing F in the data field of the initial C node.
A:
Obviously, It can't be done. If you need that capability, use a doubly-linked list. Otherwise, always pass along a pointer to the head of the list.

The only information he has been able to get since comes from a link that was there saying that the suspension was due to a violation of Blogspot’s terms of service.
Lost blog. Lost mail. What violation? No clue.
Cooper does blog about sex - also death, violence, male escort tales and abandoned things, plus a “GIF novel” made up of GIFs found online. Maybe he did violate some term of service. If so, where is the warning, or explanation, or opportunity to export his content?
He hasn't gotten any response to queries. he even had a lawyer contact Google. I have several blogs on Blogger and I don't like this. Plenty of others are angry or would like an explanation. If this happened to me, I couldn't afford a lawyer to battle Google. I wouldn't get articles about me or in my defense from newyorker.com or nytimes.com or theguardian.com.
My own experience with Google doing some evil was when - without warning and without any way to get an an explanation or recourse (Sound familiar?) - my Google Adsense account was suspended "for life." (read my post on that) Why? Our best guess was that because we had been hit with a server attack, they viewed it as some way of boosting our ad "hits." |

Todd Bradley is HP's executive VP in charge of personal systems and printers. As such, it's his job to be excited about the future of PCs, but he's gone further in a recent interview with PC World in dismissing the claim that we're living in a post-PC era as "just wrong." Citing the broad need for computers in everything we do, Bradley argues that the global PC market remains as large and buoyant as ever. He does acknowledge the increasing importance of tablets, a market that HP aims to lead from the front the way it does with Windows PCs laptops and desktops today, but he's ultimately unimpressed by the idea that portable devices are taking over from the more traditional machines.
Though these comments from Bradley convey a sense of resolute confidence, they do clash with previous bold statements he's made, most notably back in January of last year when he promised an extensive and interconnected ecosystem of webOS devices. That plan didn't pan out for HP, which has since retrenched to more familiar markets, but now CEO Meg Whitman is keen to reboot the company's efforts on the mobile computing front. It may still be debatable whether we've quite evolved into the a post-PC age (and now that Microsoft is bringing WIndows to ARM tablets, what does that even mean?), but the future does seem to be headed that way. |
Engineering cell surfaces for orthogonal selectability.
Vectors have been constructed that express the chitin-binding domain (ChBD) on eukaryotic cell surfaces. The ChBD is linked to enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) through a protein that spans the plasma membrane. This binding functionality does not have a counterpart in eukaryotes, thereby endowing the modified cell surface with a property that is orthogonal to animal cells. |

Legionellosis is a potentially fatal infectious disease caused by the bacterium Legionella pneumophila and other legionella species. Two distinct clinical and epidemiological syndromes are associated with Legionella species: Legionnaires' disease is the more severe form of the infection, which may involve pneumonia, and Pontiac fever is a milder respiratory illness.
The pathogenesis of L. pneumophila is derived from its growth within lung macrophages. One of the L. pneumophila's type IV secretion systems, the Dot/Icm secretion system, is of critical importance for its ability to replicate and to cause disease. The Dot/Icm substrates modulate multiple host cell processes and in particular, redirect trafficking of the L. pneumophila phagosome and mediate its conversion into an ER-derived organelle competent for intracellular bacterial replication. L. pneumophila also manipulates host cell death and survival pathways in a way that allows continued intracellular replication. |

I have a list and I want to filter it by language. I fetched the list of languages from backend, and it works, and I wanted to populate a select with it. But when I want to set the list of languages as property to a react Select class, it stays as an empty list, as I set it in the constructor
class Informations extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
languages: [], //the list has this value in LanguageSelect
selectedLanguage: ""
};
}
componentDidMount() {
getLanguages().then(response => {
this.setState({ languages: response });
})
//after this, the value of this.state.languages changed
}
render() {
return (
<div className="content">
<LanguageSelect options={this.state.languages}>
{/*here I add an options property with the list*/}
</div>
);
}
}
class LanguageSelect extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = { langs: [] };
}
componentDidMount() {
this.setState({ langs:this.props.options });
}
render() {
return (
<select onSelect={this.handleSelect}>
{this.state.langs.map((prop, key) => {
return (<option key={key}>{prop}</option>);
})}
</select>
);
}
}
A:
You do not need to store options to the local state in LanguageSelect. As they are passed as props you should use them directly. At the time of mount that data is not available and thats why its empty
class LanguageSelect extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = { langs: [] };
}
render() {
return (
<select onSelect={this.handleSelect}>
{this.props.options.map((prop, key) => {
return (<option key={key}>{prop}</option>);
})}
</select>
);
}
}

Preview: Stevenage vs Everton
…Yeah, right. Not only is it notoriously hard to shut me up, it’s also impossible to have a week when there’s no Everton to think about. Like in late May when you’re scribbling in every box of your calendar how many days are left until Everton grace that Goodison turf again. No, just me? Alright then.
League form has been a tad inconsistent in recent times, although looking at the last six Premier League games our form reads WLWDWD. Hardly the stuff of nightmares, but at some point we will have to win back-to-back games. So Stevenage can roll over first, and then the red sh*te are the next in line. Plays out like one of those jarg “thriller” films where you know there’s gonna be some horror amidst the uncertainty but you don’t know where. Even tougher to know nowadays when you can’t just point to Diniyar Bilyaletdinov or Per Kroldrup.
What better time, then, to delve straight back into the FA Cup? The media is as predictable as a Leon Osman pass and twice as inaccurate nowadays, so amidst the annual interview with someone from Bournemouth, Wrexham or Sutton United there’s a snide reference to Shrewsbury as we prepare to travel to a side used to causing shocks. Mostly because every team they play is streets ahead of them. Stevenage can beat Newcastle at home, which is about as impressive as winning a three-legged race tied to Gerard Deulofeu. Yeah, congrats lids.
But Stevo boss Graham Westley is adamant that Everton are gonna be as miserable as Preston were when they travelled to Hertfordshire, and he was the Preston boss. In fact, any Blue crossing that line between Buckinghamshire and that no-man’s land is gonna feel a bit down. Goes with the territory. The only table this lot top concerns teen pregnancies. But Westley’s got a master plan, eh? A way to outplay us, perhaps? Aye, he’s banking on the pitch being sh*te and us not quite being arsed so they can put one in the air and grab a goal. So he’s not banking on much.
In case you’re wondering, that’s Arouna Kone.
Roberto’s taking the p*ss a bit too, calling them “favourites”. I’m not sure if it’s courtesy or he’s trying to drive up the odds for us, but it’s a bit of a giggle. West Brom on Monday was a pain. The pitch looked like they’d let Luis Suarez do some “Spanish penalty-winning” practice on there for a few hours and Pepe Mel pulled off the miracle that is making Brummies look arsed about something. What it boils down to is that we were lethargic and perhaps should’ve been concentrating on both the game and not putting feet in mouths in interviews. Quenelle, Romelu.
But, poor performance aside, the big issue is squad depth. It’d be nice to field a different XI to the one that played on Monday, especially if that side didn’t have Magaye Gueye in it. But some players will have to do a shift today and in the derby. Joel Robles fills up the goal, while Bryan Oviedo will do that left back thing he does, as well as that left wing, right wing and attacking midfielder thing he also does in his spare time. Tony Hibbert might get a game as there won’t be much running to do, and there will be plenty of crunching tackles. Darius Charles has only just woken up from when Hibbo sorted him out in August, so there’s a nice reunion to be had. Stones will most likely partner Jags in the middle.
Leon Osman’s a cert – ey, stop that moaning – and with no Ross Barkley he’ll sit behind the centre forward with Barry and McCarthy bossing things in the middle. Heitinga? Still here, is he? Suppose we could inflict him on, well, us. Steven Naismith may be good for a run-out, as he tries to stake his claim for all games against League One opposition, while Aiden McGeady could be handed a start. Unlikely though. Pienaar and Mirallas can at least look menacing from the bench. Romelu Lukaku will be up against players with similar physicality but less pace and skill, which he really needs to exploit. Seeing as that lanky streak o’ p*ss Lacina Traore is about, it’s definite that we’ll always have a-loan striker. Ahaha. Apologies.
If you’re still reading, cheers. Stevenage are a side that even Tranmere Rovers fancy beating – before f*cking it up – so the mighty Everloan shouldn’t be quaking at any particular player. What’s more, our downright shocker of a League Cup tie earlier this season, punctuated by Gerard Deulofeu and Marouane Fellaini remembering how to play football for a few choice moments, has actually given them hope of an upset in this tournament. Whatever. Enjoy your day, ladies and gents. Watch some real entertainment as you gorge on your overpriced cheese-chip disaster zone.
“He’s good, but he’s no Steven Naismith” said Steven Naismith
Luke Freeman, he of the “I was at Arsenal in the Invincibles year, cleaning blood off Vieira’s boots” camp, has a bit of pace to burn. Meanwhile, Francois Zoko is a bit of a presence. But I can’t help feeling very happy for this lot. Not only will they see top flight-quality players and Steven Naismith gracing their turf/mud, but the money they make from making it this far and having gullible TV companies coming down to see what would be a corker of an upset if it could actually happen allows them to hand out new contracts to star players and possibly even dip into the transfer window for more than an emergency loan. Oh, how we envy them.
There’s so much up for grabs at the moment: fourth place, the FA Cup. So all I can really say is, go ‘ed Everton. Teach this lot a lesson, eh? |

Restorative surgery has long had the difficult task of finding replacement materials for use as fillers, grafts and connectors in the practice of the specialty. In this practice, as well as in many other aspects of medicine, the body's superbly designed defense mechanisms present a challenge to the physician's task of intervening and manipulating the body tissue to achieve a functional or an aesthetically pleasing result. To date, different methods of replacement of tissue and different replacement materials have been widely used, however, they have been, to a certain extent, unsatisfactory. Evidence of the unsatisfactory result is shown by the history of the use of silicon in breast implants. In addition to the variety of medical problems reported by the implantees of such devices, silicones are known to be problematic due to capsular contraction.
Another form of replacement has been the use of dermal fat grafts; however, such grafts have a tendency for resorption, leaving the graftee in little better condition than before the procedure. The use of bovine collagen has been attempted, but such attempts bring their own peculiar set of worries.
A soft tissue replacement for defects should have certain characteristics, including freedom from rejection, such that the body's defenses are minimized as a problem. The material should be persistent, malleable, of easy use, and free of complications from its use. Additionally, it should be of low cost. |

Cohesion between sister chromatids must be established during DNA replication.
Cohesion between sister chromatids, which opposes the splitting force exerted by the mitotic spindle during metaphase, is essential for their segregation to opposite poles of the cell during anaphase. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, cohesion depends on a set of chromosomal proteins called cohesins, which include structural maintenance of chromosomes 1p (Smc1p), Smc3p and sister chromatid cohesion 1p (Scc1p). Strains with mutations in the genes encoding these proteins separate sister chromatids prematurely and fail to align them in metaphase. This leads to missegregation of chromosomes in the following anaphase. In a normal cell cycle, Scc1p was synthesized and recruited to chromosomes at the onset of S phase. Using cells that expressed Scc1p exclusively from a galactose-inducible promoter, we showed that if Scc1p was synthesised only after completion of S phase, it still bound to chromosomes but failed to promote sister chromatid cohesion. Cohesion between sister chromatids must be established during DNA replication, possibly following the passage of a replication fork. Furthermore, Scc1p (and other cohesins) are needed both for maintaining cohesion during mitosis and for establishing it during S phase. Establishment of sister chromatid cohesion is therefore an essential but hitherto neglected aspect of S phase. |
As the water-intensive practice of fracking continues to spread, the amount of wastewater being buried in disposal wells around Texas has skyrocketed. But the wells bring concerns about truck traffic and the possibility of groundwater contamination.
In drilling regions like the Permian Basin, where the water needs of fracking have run up against a historic drought, drillers are increasingly turning to brackish groundwater previously thought too expensive to use.
Most fracking operations use several million gallons of water. But with water increasingly scarce and costly around Texas, a few companies have begun using alternative liquids, such as propane. Experts say the technology still has far to go.
In Pennsylvania's Marcellus Shale, natural gas companies recycle water as a matter of course. But recycling is only getting started in the Texas oilfields because using freshwater for hydraulic fracturing is cheap.
The amount of water used in hydraulic fracturing has stirred concerns around Texas, especially as the drought wears on. Aware that they are under the spotlight, drillers are testing out recycling and other water-saving techniques. |
Q:
How do I load an aggregate object from db in AxonFramework or any other Event-Sourcing frameworks?
I've had the question for a long time. For most samples on Internet. They always creat one aggregate object first and then operate the aggregate objects. My question is, how can I load one from db other than create one every time. I'll take e-sopping as an example. I treat one product as an aggregate object. I can't load all of them into my program memory. So how can I do?
What I do is, I write another constructor whit the parameter UpdateProductCommand as well as the constructor with parameter CreateProductCommand. In this constructor, I load it from db.Is this OK?
class Product{
public Product(){}
@CommandHandler
public Product(CreateProductCommand command){
apply(new CreateProductEvent(command.id));
}
@CommandHandler
public Product(UpdateProductCommand command){
load(command.id)
...
apply(new UpdateProductEvent(command.id));
}
}
A:
I am assuming that you want to use State-Stored Aggregates and you can check the link for more info.
To give you some light, I would have to see which field have you marked with @Id and @AggregateIdentifier but assuming you have one String id (which is your command.id and the @TargetAggregateIdentifier as well), Axon is responsible for loading the Aggregate from the database based on that field. Having said that, you don't have to take care of it yourself, just focusing on your business logic (which means validations) and applying new values when needed.

the world was mean today |
Does this mean Titanfall won’t have a definitive ‘end’, continuing indefinitely?
Titanfall will most definitely have an ending. It’s not a story if it doesn’t have an ending, but there are multiple sides to that story. It’s told from both the Militia and IMC perspectives, and to fully grasp Titanfall’s campaign, you’ll need to play it from both sides. And as with any good story, we’ve hopefully peppered it with enough detail and nuance that you’ll notice something new every time you replay it.
Can we expect a vast, overarching story about the fate of the universe? And if so, is this a nod towards lots of post-release updates?
Most consumers play the single-player campaign of any shooter only once, and then go on to play multiplayer for months or years. Single player campaigns take hundreds of thousands of hours to develop, and with a team as small as ours we couldn’t afford to sink that kind of development time into a four to eight hour journey people will only play once. What we’re hoping to achieve is to take an exciting cinematic experience and weave it into multiplayer gameplay so compelling, that players will continue to be engrossed in the universe of Titanfall for months and years after its release.
How have you added a sense of story-led progression? Will multiplayer progression – in terms of levels/XP – be tied to narrative advancement?
So we’ve only really spoken about one way to play Titanfall. That’s Campaign Multiplayer. You can join a lobby by yourself or with a party, but here’s where it gets different. You and your party or enlisted into a faction, either IMC or Militia. You’ll play the campaign and progress through the narrative hitting the missions in order until you’ve beaten the game on that faction. You’ll then have the option to play through again from the beginning on the other faction. Once you’ve beaten the game from both sides, you’ll be able to play any mission on either faction you like. There are traditional modes as well that you’d expect from a multiplayer FPS game and you can start playing those from the first time you run the game. No matter what you play, you earn XP and progress. |
The present disclosure relates to a gas turbine engine and, more particularly, to fuel nozzles with passages for both a liquid and a gas.
Gas turbine engines, such as Industrial Gas Turbines utilized in power production, mechanical drives as well as aero engines in commercial and military aircraft, include a compressor section to pressurize airflow, a combustor section to burn a hydrocarbon fuel in the presence of the pressurized air, and a turbine section to extract energy from the resultant combustion gases.
The combustor section includes a multiple of circumferentially distributed fuel nozzles that project into a forward section of a combustion chamber to supply fuel to mix with the pressurized airflow. The fuel nozzles may simultaneously utilize different types and combinations of fuel such as Jet-A, diesel, JP8, natural gas and others. Further, to facilitate lower NOx emissions, water may be injected though the nozzle as well.
Conventional dual fuel nozzles for aeroderivative industrial gas turbines employ separate passages for a gas and a liquid fuel. Aeroderivative industrial gas turbines are often designed to be as common as possible with the aero version to reduce cost. The fuel nozzle, however, is typically substantially different as industrial engines operate with both natural gas and liquid fuels, as well as combustor water injection. This may increase the size of the fuel nozzle and drive costly redesign of the combustor and diffuser case. |
Castell Mawr Rock
Castell Mawr (known in English as Castle Rock) is a large limestone rock that dominates the western shore of Red Wharf Bay in Anglesey, north Wales. It was probably once the site of an Iron Age fort, but today the rock is a protected refuge for nesting seabirds.
It is located between the village of Red Wharf Bay and the promontory where St. David's Holiday Park is sited. The closest large villages are Pentraeth and Benllech.
Currently, the site appears to be being used as a storage/dumping area for inert waste. The site is notable for being the only location on Anglesey displaying genuine karst development in a series of small caves and solutional cavities.
Castell Mawr was selected by the Countryside Council for Wales because of its geological interest, as it provides exposures of carboniferous limestone strata. The rock consists of limestone and sandstone layers, part of the Benllech Limestone formed during the Brigantian Stage of the lower Carboniferous period. The limestone was once mined and exported to other centres in the UK and Ireland.

Merging ecology and genomics to dissect diversity in wild tomatoes and their relatives.
To understand the origin, history, and function, of natural biological variation, from nucleotide to community levels, is a fundamental promise of ecological genomics. The most fruitful systems for this work are those that possess both ecological and genomic resources. Such systems provide an opportunity to precisely dissect genetic and developmental mechanisms, and to connect genotypes to phenotypes, as well as to directly demonstrate the ecological and evolutionary relevance of this phenotypic variation. Here we synthesize findings emerging from our efforts to understand two fundamental evolutionary processes - speciation and adaptation - using ecological genomics approaches. Many of these studies have been in the wild tomato clade (Solanum section Lycopersicon), a group that has both exceptional diversity and genomic tools. We also highlight the expanding taxonomic reach of this work, especially in two genera - Capsicum and Jaltomata - that are closely related to Solanum. Parallel approaches in these ecologically and reproductively diverse clades enable us to examine novel questions and traits that are not captured within Solanum, while leveraging the power of comparative studies to understand shared ecological and evolutionary patterns. By synthesizing findings from phenotypic, ecophysiological, genetic, and comparative perspectives, our ultimate goal is to understand the complex mechanistic and evolutionary contributions to the formation of new traits and species diversity. |
Q:
Pass user data (from Ion Auth) to view on Codeigniter
In my controller I check if an user is logged in, and if its true I tried to pass the data to the view
$user= $this->ion_auth->user()->row();
$this->load->view('niceview',$user);
And use it that data on the view:
echo 'Hi' . $user->first_name.' '.$user->last_name.'!';
But I Get the following error:
Message: Undefined variable: user
Looking for how to pass the data I pass by this question, but the question isn't clear, and the answer state that I could use:
$data['user']=$this->ion_auth->user()->row();
$this->load->view("filename",$data);
In that case, I tried to get the user back with:
$user=$data['user'];
But I got the same undefined error
Message: Undefined variable: data
So, How can I pass the data from the user with Ion Auth to a view?
A:
I just found my error.
When you pass the data to a view you don't call the variable data again, just what it's inside (you pass an array and on the view you need to work with the elements from the array).
So, I pass the user on the controller
$data['user']=$this->ion_auth->user()->row();
$this->load->view("filename",$data);
And on the view, I don't need to get the variable data, just the data inside it (that is the variable $user)... so I just remove this line from the view
$user=$data['user']; //I remove this line
And I could use the user with, for example, this
echo 'Hi' . $user->first_name.' '.$user->last_name.'!';

Euronews
French President Francois Hollande tours his country’s pavilion in Milan. Though the theme may be the environment, the migrant crisis in the Mediterranean took precedence as he met with Italian premier Matteo Renzi.
As Europe struggles to agree on how to deal with the thousands of migrants arriving on its shores, Hollande showed support for Italy in dealing with the influx.
“It is not because Italy is in the South of Europe that it should together with Greece and Malta, be the (only) ones to make an effort for the benefit of all. It is not Italy’s duty to take care of this operation and this mission, other countries are to be concerned,” he announced at a press conference.
While Renzi took aim at an EU agreement which means that migrants must be processed in the first state they entered, which currently puts a lot of pressure on countries with a Mediterranean coastline.
“Let me be clear, I do not think that signing the Dublin agreement was a good idea, especially for Italy, but I’m not interested in creating a controversy within my country against the political party that was then in the government,” explained Renzi.
Behind the rhetoric the issue of sharing responsibilities remains visible along the French-Italian border, where many African migrants turned out in Ventimiglia to protest against France blocking them from crossing the frontier. |
Q:
Macports won't install
So I'm trying to install the PDO drivers via Macports. I am using install php5-mysql, but when I hit enter I get
usage: install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]
[-o owner] file1 file2
install [-bCcpSsv] [-B suffix] [-f flags] [-g group] [-m mode]
[-o owner] file1 ... fileN directory
install -d [-v] [-g group] [-m mode] [-o owner] directory ...
I'm not really sure were to go from here. Any ideas?
A:
From your question, it appears that you are using another (possibly built-in) install command rather than the MacPorts command port install.
According to the documentation, you may need to use sudo in front of the port install command, as well, like this:
sudo port install ...
(where ... is the name of what you are going to install via MacPorts)

Mode filters and energy conservation.
The discrete form of the mode filtering problem is considered. The relevant equations constitute a linear inverse problem. Solutions to problems of this type are subject to a well-known trade-off between resolution and precision. But unlike the typical linear inverse problem, the correctly formulated mode filtering problem is subject to an energy conservation constraint. This letter focuses on the importance of satisfying, approximately at least, the energy conservation constraint when mode filtering is performed. |
Belizeans Detained in Guatemala
Eight men confirmed to be Belizean fishermen were detained by the Guatemalan Navy and handed over to the Guatemalan Immigration officials and taken to Guatemala City for processing.Reports are that the men were detained when they were found disembarking their vessel at the Punta Manabique Beach in the Department of Izabal , Guatemala. Of the eight men, seven of them had Belizean fishing licenses but the vessel had no registration or authorization from the Guatemalan Port. Belize’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a release issued this evening stated, quote, “Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Belize Embassy staff in Guatemala, since receipt of this information early this afternoon, has confirmed the identities of those detained and have been in communication with the individuals to confirm they are in good health. Government officials will continue to engage with Guatemalan and OAS representatives in this matter. The Government of Belize will keep the public informed as developments unfold.” End of quote. |

"Marriage wasn't created "in tradition and the law." It was created by God, at the very beginning. In just the same way "up" and "down" were created by God. It is what it is. Tradition and law are forced to deal with these realities, and to be just and non-destructive they have to conform to them, but they didn't create them. This is not a nitpick. It's very important. The camel's nose in the tent is the idea that men, or governments, have any kind of legitimate choice in matters of natural law."-- Tom Hoefling
"When it comes to the right to life, and marriage, God has already decided. "You shall not murder." "What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." So neither individuals, nor states, nor our national government, have any legitimate right to decide otherwise. All they have is DUTY. The absolute imperative DUTY to agree with nature, and nature's God, and through the laws, and the enforcement of those laws, to protect and preserve one man one woman marriage, and to provide EQUAL PROTECTION for the right to life of every single innocent human person. You may have the POWER to distort what God intended, but all you're doing when you exercise that illegitimate power is codifying injustice, and destroying your own form of republican self-government, and obliterating the very basis for the American claim to liberty."-- Tom Hoefling
WNDAlan Keyes“We hold these truths to be self-evident … that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. …” (U.S. Declaration of Independence)
“But if there are certain actions that all human beings are obliged by lawful authority to undertake, then as all are under the same obligation all may invoke the authority of that obligation to justify their action, to prove that it is right. With all justly claiming the same authority to act, all have the right to do so. The ‘rights that everyone has’ are therefore connected with the duties and obligations imposed upon them by the law to which they are all subjected.” (my column “Legalizing homosexual marriage impairs unalienable right”)Most of my thinking about the crisis of America’s liberty has been predicated upon the evident fact that a substantial portion of America’s elite has rejected the fundamental premise of liberty and justice in the United States. There is no mystery about that premise. It was clearly articulated in the words with which the American people, as such, stepped onto the stage of history.
As stated in the words of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, quoted above, this premise has been at the heart of all the various struggles for justice and right that have advanced the true cause of liberty for people in the United States, as individuals and as a nation.
The Declaration’s logic provides the rational foundation for America’s institutions of government, including the Constitution of the United States. At its core, that logic depends on three essential concepts: self-evident truth, the existence and authority of the Creator, and the Creator’s endowment of unalienable rights, vested in every individual included in the name of humanity.
The elitists’ push to legalize, and forbid disapproval of, homosexual relations is the most telling evidence of their hostility toward America’s way of life. It is also the key, in principle, to their thus far successful strategy to overthrow America’s historically exceptional government of, by, and for the people; and to restore unchallenged rule by and for the advantage of, the most powerful elitist clique.
The latest case in point is the ruling of U.S. District Judge Terrence C. Kern regarding same-sex marriage, overturning the amendment by which Oklahomans restricted the State’s recognition of marriage to heterosexual couples. Though the decision contained nothing new, both its content and the manner in which it was argued by both sides illustrate the deadly legal chicanery by which the elitist faction means to dissolve the moral, legal and institutional basis for just government, i.e., government aimed at securing the God-endowed unalienable rights of the people.
Nowhere in his judgment does Judge Kern refer to this fundamental purpose of government. This omission is the key to understanding the deadly legalistic deception his decision carries on. So is the fact that he pretends to talk about rights, but ignores the special natural prerogative that gives rise to the institution of marriage.
He pretends to see no rational basis for restricting the legal recognition of marriage to couples that are, in principle, capable of natural procreation. (In principle, means, of course, with respect to their God-endowed nature as human beings, not their incidental circumstances or intentions.) Yet the unalienable right of marriage depends on the special prerogative (natural command or rule of the Creator) of procreation. Members of a same-sex couple cannot humanly procreate with one another in the natural way. So they have no basis on which to claim the right rationally connected with the special prerogative of procreation.
Well, it's been forty years since the infamous court opinion we call Roe vs. Wade. An entire generation has now slaughtered their posterity.
Under the color of "law."
Of course, rightfully, Roe is no more relevant than Dred Scott vs. Sanford.
As Augustine said long ago:
"An unjust law is no law at all."
And Roe was not a law anyhow. It was a lawless court decision in a particular case, one which can only rightfully be ignored by decent Americans. Constitutionally, only Congress can make laws, and they can only make laws that are in accord with the Constitution if they are to be considered legitimate.
The Constitution explicitly and imperatively says:
"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law."
"No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Abortion is illegal. Always has been, always will be. Anyone who tells you otherwise is completely deceived, or outright lying.
William Blackstone:
"Good and wise men, in all ages...have supposed, that the deity, from the relations, we stand in, to himself and to each other, has constituted an eternal and immutable law, which is, indispensably, obligatory upon all mankind, prior to any human institution whatever...This is what is called the law of nature, which, being coeval with mankind, and dictated by God himself, is, of course superior in obligation to any other. It is binding over all the globe, in all countries at all times. No human laws are of any validity, if contrary to this; and such of them as are valid, derive all their authority, mediately or immediately, from this original."
Alexander Hamilton:
"Upon this law, depend the natural rights of mankind, the supreme being gave existence to man, together with the means of preserving and beautifying that existence. He endowed him with rational faculties, by the help of which, to discern and pursue such things, as were consistent with his duty and interest, and invested him with an inviolable right to personal liberty and personal safety.
"Hence, in a state of nature, no man has any moral power to deprive another of his life, limbs, property, or liberty; nor the least authority to command, or exact obedience from him....
"Hence also, the origin of all civil government, justly established, must be a voluntary compact, between the rulers and the ruled; and must be liable to such limitations, as are necessary for the security of the absolute rights of the latter; for what original title can any man or set of men have, to govern others, except their own consent? To usurp dominion over a people, in their own despite, or to grasp at more extensive power than they are willing to entrust, is to violate that law of nature, which gives every man the right to his personal liberty; and can, therefore, confer no obligation to obedience."
"When human laws contradict or discountenance the means, which are necessary to preserve the essential rights of any society, they defeat the proper end of all laws, and so become null and void."
The ultimate stated purpose of the U.S. Constitution:
"We the People of the United States, in Order to...secure the Blessings of Liberty to...our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
The reason all human government exists, according to our founders:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men..."
"No human law can abolish the natural and original right of marriage, nor in any way limit the chief and principal purpose of marriage ordained by God's authority from the beginning: "Increase and multiply." Hence we have the family, the "society" of a man's house -- a society very small, one must admit, but none the less a true society, and one older than any State. Consequently, it has rights and duties peculiar to itself which are quite independent of the State."
'Securing the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.'
Tom Hoefling on Government:
"Just as 'good fences make for good neighbors,' good government is mainly about knowing where the legitimate boundaries are, and having the courage to defend those borders forcefully. This is true in terms of the defense of our territory, our security, and our national sovereignty, but it also applies to the sworn duty of all of those in government to equally protect the God-given, unalienable rights of each individual person, from their creation onward, their sacred obligation to stay well within the enumerated powers of our constitutions, and of the role legitimate government must play in balancing the competing rights and interests of the people, in order to establish justice." |

He will quote Tony Blair, the former Labour prime minister, and announce plans to ask Alan Milburn, a former Labour minister, to hold an inquiry into how top professions can become more accessible to people of all backgrounds. Mr Milburn will report in the spring. |
Words with some Weight
Remorse, Guilt and Shame
I am sorry for what I did and not for who I am.
Don't confuse shame and guilt with remorse. Shame is about who you are. (I am a bad person.) Remorse is about what you did. (I behaved in a bad way.) Shame turns the attention away from the wronged person back to you, so it's really about you and how you feel.
I think guilt is really still about you – I feel bad that I did that. It’s a good start—but it’s not remorse. Remorse turns the energy towards the person you want to re-connect with again. It’s an I feel your pain rather than I feel my pain about causing you pain.
Remorse is one of those old-fashioned words that smacks of Puritanism and sin, a
kind of we-are-all-bad-people-underneath kind of thinking. But if we can peel back the punitive feeling attached to these words, there is a beauty to them.
I am remorseful. I am filled with remorse. It’s a word with weight that
matches the deed you now regret. It feels right for that moment when you feel someone else’s pain as your own. It allows for redemption—another one of those weighted words—and healing. |
The present invention relates to a signaling device for sighting systems, for example for rescue crafts in the nautical field and the like. More particularly, the invention relates to an intermittent signaling device.
As is known, external signaling devices suitable to be used for rescue crafts such as life rafts for watercraft are currently commercially available.
However, these signaling devices have a light distribution system that is provided by using a single lamp whose brightness, emitted by the single filament of the lamp, produces a given light field, leaving substantially uncovered two sectors in which shadow zones are formed.
Essentially, with a single filament and therefore a single lamp, two substantially opposite lighting regions are produced which extend from the body of the lamp, with two shadow sectors that are located at the respective north and south poles when one considers a sphere whose light field is determined by the lighting of the lamp.
This is of course a drawback in signaling devices that must be used in sighting systems, for example for rescue crafts, in which the primary purpose is obviously to be sighted at the greatest possible distance so as to allow the recovery of shipwrecked persons.
Accordingly, existing signaling devices, despite being accepted and commonly used by users, do not offer the assurances of reliability that make the signaling device absolutely suitable for use in the nautical field. Furthermore, if the single filament breaks, the device is unusable and therefore the rescue system is no longer available. |
The Disease Model Reconsidered
Historian looks at resistance to the “NIDA paradigm.”
The history of addiction as a brain disease “looks a lot like the history of atoms or germs, insofar as these were older and controversial ideas for which scientific confirmation later became available,” writes historian David Courtwright, author of Forces of Habit: Drugs and the Making of the Modern World.
In a recent issue of the social science journal BioSocieties, Courtwright surveys the history of the disease paradigm of drug addiction, and, in doing so, brings into focus several key dilemmas related to what former National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) director Alan Leshner once characterized as the “quintessential biobehavioral disorder.”
The scientific evidence available to us at present largely supports a statement like Leshner’s. Researchers have documented long-term changes in brain structure and function due to drug abuse, and neuroimaging technologies have resulted in maps of the abnormal neuronal activity addicts exhibit. Courtwright cites the discovery of the endogenous opioid system, the mapping of receptor pathways, and the growing understanding of the mesolimbic dopamine reward pathway as evidence of clinical confirmation of theories about addictive disease that has been floating around in one form or another for many years.
Why then, Courtwright asks, does the medical profession largely stay clear of issues having to do with our law enforcement-driven drug war? Why are clinical professionals not on the front lines of revolt over this issue? “If addiction was beyond the individual’s control, then criminal punishment was as inappropriate as jailing a schizophrenic who wandered into an emergency room,” the author writes.
The most obvious reason for this conundrum, says Courtwright, is that “the brain disease model has so far failed to yield much practical therapeutic value.” The disease paradigm has not greatly increased the amount of “actionable etiology” available to medical and public health practitioners. “Clinicians have acquired some drugs, such as Wellbutrin and Chantix for smokers, Campral for alcoholics or buprenorphine for heroin addicts, but no magic bullets.” Physicians and health workers are “stuck in therapeutic limbo,” Courtwright believes. “The drug-abuse field is characterized by, at best, incomplete and contested medicalization.”
Moreover, unlike the current situation in the case of, say, diabetes or schizophrenia, “at least four important groups continue to wrestle for control of the addiction field.” (Medical personnel, police, social scientists, and political officials.) Social scientists, in particular, are frequently skeptical about the NIDA disease paradigm “as part of a broader post-World War II pattern of resistance against biological explanations of behavior, genetic research and the neo-Darwinian renaissance.”
Social scientists and neuroscientists “still live in their own gated academic communities,” Courtwright alleges. “There is a lot more at stake in the brain disease debate than our understanding of addiction.”
However, these problems do not mean that valuable findings in one area–addictive disease theory–cannot produce innovations in other research fields as well. In fact, such spinoffs happen all the time. Courtwright points to advancements in our understanding of evolution: “Michael Kuhar has argued that, because the brain co-evolved with neurotransmitters, it can usually manage its internal chemistry quite well. But it did not co-evolve with drugs, understood as recently introduced and wholly exogenous super-neurotransmitters that can override the brain’s control mechanisms.”
The author also cites spinoffs in economic studies: “The permanent alteration of neurons and the development of addiction in some, but not all, users also helped explain the commercial and tax appeal of drugs, insofar as they were nondurable goods with relatively inflexible demand curves. Even non-addicted users tended to consume more over time, because of tolerance.”
In the end, it is just possible to contemplate some sort of fusion, or meeting of the minds, over the disease model. As Courtwright speculates, “it may turn out that the tension between the personality and brain disease models is more apparent than real.” He cites as evidence such connections as the fit between impulsive, thrill-seeking behavior and an associated paucity of dopamine D2 and D3 receptors in the midbrain region. The result? Such people “have less inhibition of dopamine, and experience more reward when stimulated by risky behavior.” A nice fit. And the number of nice fits between social science and brain science continues to accumulate.
“If the brain disease model ever yields a pharmacotherapy that curbs craving, or a vaccine that blocks drug euphoria, as some researchers hope,” Courtwright says, “we should expect the rapid medicalization of the field. Under those dramatically cost-effective circumstances, politicians and police would be more willing to surrender authority to physicians.” |

Q:
getting an error of element not interactable or element not visible
Getting error of
selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotInteractableException: Message: element not interactable
(or)
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: chrome not reachable for the search query code lines.
I believe that search field is hidden in the website. Help with the code.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
#Step: Create new browsing session
options = Options()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
browser = webdriver.Chrome("C:/Users/ashita.gadagotti/Downloads/chromedriver_win32/chromedriver.exe",chrome_options=options)
#Search Query
browser.get("https://equiniti-kyc.com")
search_input = browser.findElement(By.className("primary-navigation__search-input").isEnabled()
search_input.send_keys('ISO')
search_input.submit()
A:
Yes It will show ElementNotInteractableException because first you need to click on search button which show at right side of your website than, It will enabled search box and than you need to use send keys and press button.
browser.find_element_by_xpath("//i[@class='primary-navigation__list-item-link-icon-search']//*[@class='icon']").click()
Then you need to use send keys for your search input.
search_input =browser .find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='primary-navigation__search-container primary-navigation__search-container--shown']//input[@placeholder='Search']")
search_input.send_keys('ISO')
Then again you need to click on search button so all result will shown on your screen
browser.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='primary-navigation__search-container primary-navigation__search-container--shown']//input[@value='GO']").click()
Here i used absolute xpath but you can use dynamic xpath. It will not work with class name because same class name assigned to other elements. so it will create confusion for which element should selected. use Absolute xpath or dynamic xpath in such cases.

Renal net acid and electrolyte excretion in an experimental model of hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis in sheep.
Renal electrolyte and net acid excretion were characterized during generation and maintenance of hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis in a ruminant model. Two phases of renal response with regard to sodium and net acid excretion were documented. An initial decrease in net acid excretion was attributable to increase in bicarbonate excretion with associated increase in sodium excretion. As the metabolic disturbance became more advanced, a second phase of renal excretion was observed in which sodium and bicarbonate excretion were markedly decreased, leading to increase in net acid excretion and development of aciduria. Throughout the metabolic disturbance, chloride excretion was markedly decreased; potassium excretion also decreased. These changes were accompanied by increase in plasma renin and aldosterone concentrations. There was apparent failure to concentrate the urine optimally during the course of the metabolic disturbance, despite increasing plasma concentration of antidiuretic hormone. |
There’s a very fine and almost invisible line between support and trending on social media. When tragic events like Friday's terrorist attacks in Paris unfold, marketers face a challenge: Should they show their support for victims on social media, and if so, how do they do so in an authentic way?
This weekend, many major brands—including Amazon, Google and Uber—swiftly took to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and other platforms to show their solidarity with France, often using the #PrayforParis hashtag. The rush to join the discussion didn't sit well with some consumers:
Still, Steven Heller, author of a number of books on design, told Fast Company that sharing supportive images is important: "We need symbols to express what [we] cannot say." They also offer brands a subtle way to join the conversation—to say something without sounding off. While many companies used the viral "Peace for Paris" sketch, others created their own images.
Uber, for example, added the image of the French flag to the cars in its app:
Amazon had its own spin, putting the flag front and center on its homepage:
Airbnb, like many companies, made the French flag part of its logo while also offering help to those stranded in Paris:
Google, Skype, Verizon and Sprint all made international calls free for consumers: |

Q:
Getting relative virtual path from physical path
How can I get the relative virtual path from the physical path in asp.net?
The reverse method is like below:
Server.MapPath("Virtual Path Here");
But what is the reverse of the upper method?
A:
Maybe this question is what you're looking for.
There they suggest:
String RelativePath = AbsolutePath.Replace(Request.ServerVariables["APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH"], String.Empty);
A:
public static string MapPathReverse(string fullServerPath)
{
return @"~\" + fullServerPath.Replace(HttpContext.Current.Request.PhysicalApplicationPath,String.Empty);
}
A:
Request.ServerVariables["APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH"]
is fine, but not always. It is available only if there's a HTTP request.
On the other hand the call
HostingEnvironment.ApplicationPhysicalPath
is always available.

The semiconductor industry has recently experienced technological advances that have permitted dramatic increases in circuit density and complexity, and equally dramatic decreases in power consumption and package sizes. Present semiconductor technology now permits single-chip microprocessors with many millions of transistors, operating at speeds of hundreds of millions of instructions per second to be packaged in relatively small, air-cooled semiconductor device packages. A by-product of such high-density and high functionality in semiconductor devices has been the demand for increased numbers of external electrical connections to be present on the exterior of the die and on the exterior of the semiconductor packages which receive the die, for connecting the packaged device to external systems, such as a printed circuit board.
As the manufacturing processes for semiconductor devices and integrated circuits increase in difficulty, methods for testing and debugging these devices become increasingly important. Not only is it important to ensure that individual chips are functional, it is also important to ensure that batches of chips perform consistently. In addition, the ability to detect a defective manufacturing process early is helpful for reducing the number of defective devices manufactured.
Traditionally, integrated circuit dies have been tested using methods including accessing circuitry or devices within the die. In order to access portions of circuitry in the integrated circuit die it is sometimes necessary to align the die with equipment such as a milling device, a test fixture, or other test equipment. For example, in flip-chip type dies, transistors and other circuitry are located in a very thin epitaxially-grown silicon layer in a circuit side of the die. The circuit side of the die is arranged facedown on a package substrate. This orientation provides many operational advantages. However, due to the face-down orientation of the circuit side of the die, the transistors and other circuitry near the circuit side are not readily accessible for testing, modification, or other purposes. Therefore, access to the transistors and circuitry near the circuit side is from the back side of the chip. Such back side access often requires milling through the back side and probing certain circuit elements. The milling and probing processes may potentially damage elements in the integrated circuit if not properly aligned. The difficulty, cost, and destructive aspects of existing methods for testing integrated circuits are impediments to the growth and improvement of semiconductor technologies. To access the backside circuitry, it is necessary to align the circuit with a CAD layout. This is done with alignment markers; however, alignment markers are not visible through silicon from the backside with most tools without substantial thinning. |

The characters on Mad Men are not particularly self-aware. Pathetic, balding Pete might actually be the only person attempting not to repeat his own mistakes. (It’s not going that well.) Roger doesn’t seem to care, Harry just wants to find a prostitute who accepts travelers checks, and even Peggy — respectable, driven Peggy — is trapped living in a shit-hole apartment because she let a guy convince her that he knew better than she did. It takes a weird kind of detachment to see a reflection of yourself and not recognize it, but that’s exactly what happened to Don and Megan on “Quality of Mercy” when they saw Rosemary’s Baby. Megan said it was scary. Don said it was disturbing. But neither of them noticed that they are living inside that movie every stinkin’ day.
Much has been made of the connection between Megan and Sharon Tate this season, and including a film by Tate’s husband Roman Polanski in such a prominent way is certainly fuel on that fire. But that tie only feels significant because we know that Sharon Tate was murdered. Megan herself could watch Rosemary’s Baby and think, You know, a lot of this is weirdly familiar to me. She could also ask Sally how it compares to Ira Levin’s original book, which we saw Sally reading earlier this season.
The husband in Rosemary’s Baby, Guy, is a struggling actor, just like Megan was a few short months ago. Rosemary meets a friend outside the Time & Life Building, which is where the Sterling Cooper offices are. Part of the soundscape of this season of MM has been hyperpresent sirens — something also very present in Rosemary’s Baby. Rosemary and Guy move into the Dakota in the movie — a building less than a mile from where Megan and Don live. One of the early disturbing shots in the movie is of a bloody dead body, that of Rosemary’s new friend in the building who apparently killed herself. On the Mad Men timeline, Lane Pryce killed himself less than two years ago. There’s even a scene where Guy and Rosemary have a fight over Rosemary not wanting to eat a particular dessert — just like Don and Megan had a fight about that stupid orange sherbet at Howard Johnson’s. And, oh yeah, the Drapers spend a lot of time with their neighbors.
Don could have noticed the similarities, too. And while at first glance, one might assume Megan and Rosemary are the parallels, it’s actually Don Draper who should be getting a Vidal Sassoon cut and drinking prenatal Satan juice.
Here’s Don a few weeks ago:
And Rosemary:
Rosemary’s satanic neighbors drug her, and in her whacked-out trance she hallucinates herself floating in the ocean — an image just like Don’s proposed ad for Hawaii about dreamily wandering into the water. Rosemary then finds herself on a boat with people who seem to be the Kennedys — and Don had just spoken to Betty and chitchatted about Jacqueline Kennedy’s second marriage. (Also, Peggy and Ted spend a bit of time doing some Kennedy impressions. It’s everywhere!)
Don’s the one in a panic, Don’s the one who looks all wan and gross, Don’s the one getting devilish trinkets from his neighbors. (That’d be the copy of Dante’s Inferno that Sylvia gave him, just like Rosemary received a tannis-root necklace.) Don’s the one who’s gestating a monster.
Because in the end, Don himself is the monster, hail Satan. First, in Peggy’s commercial pitch, Don plays the baby — waah, waah — and just as a reminder, the baby in Rosemary’s Baby is the devil. Later, back in his office, Peggy is livid. “You’re a monster,” she tells him. Waah, waah. |

A Metamodern IPA conceived of hand-selected hops from down under. Malt barley and red wheat combine to create a clean malt backbone with foolproof flavour and mouthfeel to support the main act of Enigma, Vic Secret, Ella, Topaz and Galaxy hops. The hops strum juicy and sweet aromas with headline notes of passion fruit, raspberries, pineapple and citrus. This straight-up strain is Oskar Blues IPA. To each their own til we go home! |

Turnbull Promises To Buy Abbott Toy Boat To Play With If He Is Good Boy
The Prime Minister has told Tony Abbott he will buy him a special toy boat, but only if he is on his best behaviour in the lead up to the election campaign.
Tony has been running around the country complaining he is bored and has nothing to do. But Mr Turnbull said it was time to be a big boy now, and let the grown ups do some work.
Crying that he “never gets anything he wants,” and threatening to “smash everyone else’s toys”, Tony’s ears pricked up when Mr Turnbull made the toy boat proposal.
Staffers say Tony likes to play a game of ‘stop the boats’ in the bath. “He has quite a few little boats that he plays with. But he’s had his eye on this special one for a while now. So I think this is quite a good little strategy from Mr Turnbull,” one staffer said.

Mario Balotelli has taken the customised football boot to the next level by splashing it full of headlines he has generated during the course of his career.
The Italy and AC Milan star wore the boots in his club's home game against Roma in Serie A.
The white boots looked innocuous enough at first but, upon closer inspection, they look a lot like a series of newspaper clippings.
The next step, of course, will be for next week's boots to feature this week's headlines about him wearing the boots. |
With increasingly development of information technologies, more and more people begin to use online accounts. For example, messages are received or sent by using online accounts. If a plurality of online accounts is associated to from a public online account including the plurality of online accounts, each online account in the public online account may share information in the public online account, so as to facilitate information sharing. Therefore, how to associate a plurality of online accounts into one public online account becomes an issue of concern. |
A few years ago r/atheism had a "faces of atheism" campaign where people submitted pictures of themselves with some comment on atheism on them. It was so embarrassing and cringeworthy that the reddit mods removed r/atheism from the frontpage/main reddits because the reputation of the site itself was being tarnished. Since then, people started combining the (already existing) "fat neckbeard" stereotype with atheism and made parodies of the faces of atheism, like some ugly/underage fedora wearer saying cringe stuff like "intellect is my blade" etc. |
The use of such metal cutting tool assemblies has been known for some time, particularly in connection with parting, grooving and face turning operations. The use of such assemblies, particularly with their readily exchangeable or replaceable adaptors, is advantageous when the same tool block is to be used for differing types of cutting inserts, and it is desired to be able to replace these cutting inserts without removing the block from the machine tool to which it is attached. Alternatively, situations may arise where the particular type of cutting operations require the use of differing types of tool blocks, albeit for the same type of cutting insert. In those circumstances, the use of a standard adaptor to which the cutting insert can be clamped is particularly advantageous for it allows for the ready coupling of the cutting insert via the standard adaptor to differing types of tool blocks.
Known adaptors of this kind are formed with a pair of integral jaws which define between them an insert receiving slot for receiving the cutting insert, means being provided for biasing the jaws towards each other so as to clamp the cutting insert in an operative position. |

Bilateral maxillary canine-first premolar transposition in permanent dentition.
Transposition is a dental anomaly characterized by the exchange of position between two adjacent teeth, especially in relation to their roots, or development and eruption of a tooth in a position normally occupied by a nonadjacent tooth. Transposition of the maxillary canine and first premolar has a low prevalence in the population and it primarily affects maxillary canines and premolars. The aetiology of the transposition remains unclear, although it has been associated with genetic factors. It may also be related to a combination of localised factors such as malformation of adjacent teeth, tooth agenesis, retention of the deciduous canine and a history of local trauma. If uncorrected, the results are often both functionally and esthetically unsatisfactory. This case report presents treatment of a female patient with complete bilateral transposition of maxillary canine and premolar. The patient was treated orthodontically with non-extraction fixed mechanotherapy by simulation of maxillary first premolar as canine bilaterally. |

Projections from the subiculum to the deep layers of the ipsilateral presubicular and entorhinal cortices in the guinea pig.
Projections from the subiculum to retrohippocampal areas were studied by reduced silver impregnation of anterograde degeneration and by autoradiographic tracing of transported proteins following injections of radioactive amino acids. The subiculum was found to project to the presubiculum and to the medial and lateral parts of the entorhinal area. The projections are exclusively ipsilateral, and arranged in a dorso-ventral topographical order with the terminations confined to the deep cortical layers. The projections form part of multisynaptic chains within the hippocampal region and must also be implicated in output routes for hippocampal activity additional to the fimbria-fornix system. |

The Definitive Guide To Saying Hello To (Almost) Everyone
Handshakes, fist bumps, high fives and kisses. Our guide to greetings and small talk in different countries.
The handshake has never been simple. It was, after all, born of mistrust; an overt demonstration that one is unarmed. Nowadays the main concern isn’t whether your counterpart is packin’ - it’s whether you’re going to meet his or her hand at the right pace, trajectory and with due firmness.
Hand-wringing experts have detonated a cluster bomb of categories from the teacup to the bone crusher to the politician. Each of these categories gives way to a cascade of personality traits, an understanding of which could reduce the average duration of a job interview to a mere five seconds. Teacuppers, for example, are conniving little devils that avoid palm-to-palm contact by cupping their hands. They are not to be trusted. Bone crushers are out to intimidate you in a macho display of a weak ego. The politician will enact a sleight, swift move of his second hand to cover yours. He’s trying to win you over with false sincerity. Don’t vote for him.
And these categorizations are just in the English speaking world. In Morocco and Turkey, a gentle shake is much preferred to the stout, assuring, firm handshake favored in the US. And one shouldn’t be too quick about it either. Let the hand linger. Unless you’re in France, of course, in which case shake quickly and lightly.
But how true is all of this? Globalization irons out the creases of cultural idiosyncrasy and the humble handshake is by no means immune. It’s now more likely that a twenty-something German male will greet a twenty-something French male on the streets of Berlin with an Obama-approved fist bump, and depart with a wide five, arms outstretched and swooping to meet in a fleeting clasp in the middle.
But what would happen if our twenty-something German male were to meet a sixty-something Italian at a formal business lunch? Would they fist bump? Most probably not. These variants of the handshake are copied and choreographed in order to impute familiarity, whether authentic or not. Judging the formality of a situation, and thereby the kind of greeting one should give and may receive, is becoming ever more complex. Add layers of intercultural complexity and we enter a minefield of explosive etiquette. Would you know how to greet a Spanish girl, or a Bulgarian senior, or a German native to Hamburg? And would your natural topics of small talk be met with enthusiasm or bemusement? What happens when different cultures of small talk collide? Let’s take a whistlestop tour of a few cultural norms of which you should be aware.
A few weeks after moving to Spain, I had my first experience as a lone foreigner in a multitude of Spanish speakers. I was listening attentively, trying to decipher sentences and contributing with clumsy, slapstick self-deprecation. Three girls arrived and, on being introduced, I remained nonchalantly in my wicker chair. Never had I been so reprimanded by someone I had known so briefly. Like drill sergeants whose authority had been questioned, they ordered me to stand and bestow a kiss on either cheek. A formality can be so much more than just a formality if it isn’t fulfilled.
In Spain men and women greet others with two kisses, delivered from left to right, often taking hold of a shoulder while doing so. Shaking hands isn’t something the Spanish are keen on – “you might be contagious!”
The weather and fútbol are considered small talk staples, but I found the most common intro when unexpectedly encountering an acquaintance in the street was, ¿a dónde vas? - where are you going? An achingly simple, slightly interrogatory opener that launches one into moderately more purposeful small talk. It’s worth noting that there are some significant variations across Spanish speaking countries when it comes to greetings. In the Dominican Republic, for example, men greet each other with a fist bump. This is accompanied by a ¿Qué dicen?, to which one responds to ta bien.
When I rolled up in Perugia at the beginning of this year to study Italian, I was bursting with confidence. I’d been studying avidly on the train down from Munich, and half the words seemed virtually identical to their Spanish counterparts. This was going to be easy. I ventured out onto the streets on the first evening and started headbutting the locals. You heard me. Headbutting.
“Ciao” reigns supreme in Italy. Regardless whether you meet someone during the day, night, or whether you’re saying hello or goodbye (one-word-fluency!). However, make sure you respect the distinction between the formal and informal ways to greet and address.
What had they done to deserve such persecution? After two years of diligently delivering two kisses from left to right in Spain, the Italians had the temerity to greet me with kisses from the right to the left. Reprogramming one’s mind to accommodate for this is tantamount to driving on the wrong side of the road - it takes a few scrapes and near misses before it becomes second nature. If you’re a creature of habit, stick to holidays in Bulgaria - they also kiss from left to right, although they have the odd custom of using different languages for simple exchanges; the Italian ciao to say goodbye and the French merci for thank you, for example.
German is an angry, harsh, jagged language born from the vocal chords of angsty Barbarians after a winter deprived of sausages and Glühwein, right? It’s a stereotype that is promptly obliterated when you first bump into a friend who greets you with a short na? delivered on a cushion of velvet charm. Learn the word, for there is a world in this grain of sand; how are you? … it’s nice to see you … what’s up? … everything ok? … tell me what you’ve been up to … Despite this web of meaning, or perhaps because of it, the most common response is … na? … with just a little more inflexion. The unabashedly, adorably camp tchüssi is challenged only by the Dutchdoei doei for the most saccharine goodbye in Europe.
Greetings often depend on where exactly you are in Germany. In the north you’ll be greeted with a moin moin while in the south you may be on the receiving end of a servus. A hallo or a guten Tag will get you started everywhere, however.
Young people often greet one another with a hug, but in large groups a simple nod of the head and a hallo zusammen (hello together) suffices. Interestingly, greetings remain stubbornly conventional within traditional companies with employees greeting one another formally with a firm shake of the hand and addressing one another by title and surname; guten Tag Herr Wowereit. I once taught English in a cigarette factory just outside Hannover and broke the record for hands shaken within two minutes. No adjudicators were present.
In Austria one greets with a servus, and they’re very attentive to titles, so pay attention, Doctor Doe. Women often say hello with two kisses, one on each cheek and always starting on the right and then moving to the left (they border Italy, after all). Men will normally shake hands.
In France people greet with a bonjour or the more informal salut. And if you thought the formalities of kissing were somewhat novel, be prepared for the bise, planting up to four kisses on the cheeks of the French. The number is dependent upon region, so you’ll need to brush up on some local knowledge before mingling with the haute société. Pay strict attention to the formal vous form for older people and strangers. Incidentally, Brazilians haven’t agreed on the number of kisses either, but numbers vary less dramatically between one and three. Further to the well-known tudo bem?, greetings include the joyously concise oi and e ai. Romanians, like their Bulgarian neighbors, sometimes add a touch of continental flair to their informal greetings with a salut! salut! or a servus for hello.
Are we giving the kiss too much lip service? Then you’ll be glad for the Swedes and the Greeks. These two nationalities often go in for the back pat-slap-clap. The Greeks use it as a follow-up to two kisses, while it’s the successor to a short handshake or hug for the Swedes.
If all of the above greetings are too touchy-feely for you, you’ll find respite in Japan where the standard gesture is a reverential bow. No physical contact required. If a handshake does occur, make sure to still lower your gaze as a sign of respect to the other person. Small talk can be about anything, but make sure to save it until after work.
In Sweden one greets with a hej or a longer heeeeej if you’re particularly pleased to see whoever has just entered audible territory. And then you speak about the weather and Eurovision.
And so it would seem that even faced with the normalizing powers of globalization, there is no such thing as a simple hello. The dissolution of distinct gradations of formality where certain behaviors are prudent is a common trend, but knowing each country’s etiquette is the first step to navigating this little gauntlet of intercultural communication.

Longitudinal studies of immunological parameters in Farmer's lung.
A group of patients with serum precipitins against M. faeni culture filtrate antigens and with clinically proven farmer's lung disease was examined. A group of precipitin-negative farmers with comparable antigen exposure and with unrelated forms of pulmonary disease served as control. Immunoglobulins G and A were elevated at first consultation in the majority of the acute cases of farmer's lung. Immunological parameters normalized during corticosteroid medication and antigen avoidance. Autologous complement (C) consumption by M. Faeni antigens proved valuable for diagnostic purposes. Despite normalizing immunological factors and subsiding symptomatology, C-consuming antibody levels remained constant. |
Q:
applescript Calculator not working
I have made a calculator which should work but doesn't. The only part that works is the addition. this is my code:
my Calculator()
on Calculator()
display dialog "Calculator" buttons {"Add", "Multiply", "Divide"}
if button returned of the result is "Add" then
display dialog "What plus What?" default answer ""
set a to (text returned of result)
if a is equal to "q" then
return
end if
display dialog "Next number" default answer ""
set b to (text returned of result)
set c to a + b
display dialog "The answer is " & c buttons {"Start Again", "Quit"}
if button returned of the result is "Quit" then
return
else
my Calculator()
end if
end if
if button returned of the result is "Multiply" then
display dialog "What times what?" default answer ""
set a to (text returned of result)
if a is equal to "q" then
return
end if
display dialog "Next number" default answer ""
set b to (text returned of result)
set c to a * b
display dialog "The answer is " & c buttons {"Start Again", "Quit"}
if button returned of the result is "Quit" then
return
else
my Calculator()
end if
end if
if button returned of the result is "Divide" then
display dialog "What divided by what?" default answer ""
set a to (text returned of result)
if a is equal to "q" then
return
end if
display dialog "Next number" default answer ""
set b to (text returned of result)
set c to a / b
display dialog "The answer is " & c buttons {"Start Again", "Quit"}
if button returned of the result is "Quit" then
return
else
my Calculator()
end if
end if
end Calculator
end
end
it is an applescript code. I'm sorry if it is a nooby question but I need help. Thanks!
A:
You are using three if/end if statements to process the button returned, you should only use a single if/end, and utilize else if in between. I have edited your code to fix it, and commented out the incorrect regions.
e.g.:
my Calculator()
on Calculator()
display dialog "Calculator" buttons {"Add", "Multiply", "Divide"}
if button returned of the result is "Add" then
display dialog "What plus What?" default answer ""
set a to (text returned of result)
if a is equal to "q" then
return
end if
display dialog "Next number" default answer ""
set b to (text returned of result)
set c to a + b
display dialog "The answer is " & c buttons {"Start Again", "Quit"}
if button returned of the result is "Quit" then
return
else
my Calculator()
end if
else if button returned of the result is "Multiply" then
display dialog "What times what?" default answer ""
set a to (text returned of result)
if a is equal to "q" then
return
end if
display dialog "Next number" default answer ""
set b to (text returned of result)
set c to a * b
display dialog "The answer is " & c buttons {"Start Again", "Quit"}
if button returned of the result is "Quit" then
return
else
my Calculator()
end if
else if button returned of the result is "Divide" then
display dialog "What divided by what?" default answer ""
set a to (text returned of result)
if a is equal to "q" then
return
end if
display dialog "Next number" default answer ""
set b to (text returned of result)
set c to a / b
display dialog "The answer is " & c buttons {"Start Again", "Quit"}
if button returned of the result is "Quit" then
return
else
my Calculator()
end if
end if
end Calculator
end
end

The present invention relates generally to desks and desking systems.
A conventional desk for supporting a computer includes a main desktop, various drawers and cupboards, and possibly one or more drawers and/or stands for supporting a computer keyboard and/or viewing screen (VDU). Some computer desks also include a drawer, rack or stand for the central processing unit (CPU) chassis, to position the CPU toward the rear of the desk or beside a desk leg, rather than on the desktop or the floor beside or beneath the desk. Typically, a VDU, a mouse, and often the keyboard are positioned on top of the main desktop, and often one or more peripheral devices are also placed on top of the desktop.
In an environment including several computer desks, for example, in an office of networked computers, each desk is typically separate from the others and the power and electronics cabling is supplied to each desk individually from power and cable connection points on the floor or walls. In an education institution, for example, classrooms are set up with one or more rows of desks, each desk carrying one or more respective computers, and desks are often placed side-by-side, or otherwise adjacent one another.
Convention computer desks (or environments including several computer desks, e.g., offices, classrooms) require: (i) power cabling to a computer processor and various computer peripheral devices (e.g., VDU, keyboard, mouse, printer, scanner); (ii) cabling between the processor and peripheral devices, and between various peripheral devices; (iii) a telephone connection for Internet access; and (iv) in some cases, network cabling connecting two or more computers to each other and to other devices. Systems for handling these cables include tying them together with plastic cable ties, string, or plastic “Cable Zip” tubes, taping the cabling to the floor, placing the cabling under rubber cable protectors that form ridges on top of the floor, or placing the cabling in trunking under the floor.
Conventional computer desks are not made to connect to one another. In environments including several computer desks, they are generally simply placed side by side, and can be moved about, or they are tied together using a crude system such as cable ties, which typically still allow some movement. Existing desking systems are not designed to provide a flexible arrangement of desk placement when one or more desks are connected together in some fashion. |
