Harmful dysfunction and the DSM definition of mental disorder.
Physicians, including psychiatrists, give a lot of thought in their everyday work to answer the question of whether or not a particular patient has a disorder; they rarely give much thought to the broader issue of what constitutes a disorder. Remarkably, and consistent with the harmful dysfunction (HD) analysis, there is a broad consensus in both the general public and the medical and health professions as to what conditions are disorders--even though there is no consensus definition of disorder. The HD analysis is a substantial advance over previous attempts to define disorder in specifying the nature of what is not working in the individual (the dysfunction). The adoption of the HD analysis in DSM-V (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th ed.) would probably have little if any effect on the list of categories of mental disorders. Its main value would be in helping make revisions in the diagnostic criteria more valid as true indicators of disorder. |
Q:
What gives Vietnamese Chicken the red tint?
A local oriental restaurant used to sell "Vietnamese Chicken", a hot plate dish of big chunks of chicken breast with onion and spices. The distinguishing feature of the dish was a deep red tint of the chicken meat (on the surface; the inside was normal chicken meat color), even stronger than in the photo:
At one point they must have changed their recipe and the chicken is no longer red, just common yellowish typical to any fried chicken:
I can't really notice a difference in taste (maybe because it was a couple months since I had "red" until I bought "Vietnamese Chicken" and it was now yellow) - still, I'm curious what spice (or whatever other means) can give chicken meat this red coloration, and try making this dish myself.
(there's a bunch of recipes for this dish, but as I want the "red" variant, I'd like to be able to tell the "red" ones apart from the "yellow".)
Can you help me?
A:
My Vietnamese girlfriend uses "hạt điều màu" (annatto). She heats the nuts in oil and then uses the oil without the nuts to fry the meat in.

Q:
My Object isnt getting printed to my JavaFX Table View
Im currently passing my data through a constructor which fills in data requested from both my abstract and extended classes (i.e MusicItem Abstract and CD and Vinyl classes extended)
Im trying to print these into a Table View using JavaFX from my controller but nothing is showing up even with the system.out line placed.
I've tried putting them into Observable Lists as well as normal array lists, I've triple checked the data fields to see if they match the table and i tried viewing the the object at the moment its entered but when i do that, the hex code for that object shows up.
It connects to the database properly but doesn't display anything

A:
Figured it out. The code I wrote was never incorrect. The Observable list i had called was calling a new instance which was why no values returned (Because the list was empty after the instance call). I connected that values directly from MongoDB and got the values by adding them to an observable list. And setting the table columns and data to whatever the result was and it worked well
private ObservableList<MusicItem> addTableItems() throws UnknownHostException {
ObservableList<MusicItem> musicItem = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
Database database = new Database();
for (MusicItem item: database.datastore.find(MusicItem.class).asList()){
musicItem.addAll(item);
}
return musicItem;

Q:
Typescript extensions. Conditional Types
I was trying to use conditional type but it does not work as expected.
I was expecting type of abc would be number but it returns a string.
Any help on the same would be appreciated.
class TableIdClass {
public tableId?: string;
constructor(props: TableIdClass) {
const { tableId } = props;
this.tableId = `${Math.random()}`;
}
}
export class TableBase extends TableIdClass {
public createDate?: Date;
constructor(props: TableBase) {
super(props)
const { createDate } = props;
this.createDate = (createDate) ? createDate : new Date();
}
}
export class EntityBase extends TableBase {
public entityId?: string;
public entityName?: string;
public isActive?: boolean;
constructor(props: EntityBase) {
super(props)
const { entityId, entityName, isActive } = props;
this.entityId = entityId;
this.entityName = (entityName) ? entityName : '';
this.isActive = (typeof isActive === 'undefined') ? true : isActive;
}
};
class SomeClass extends TableIdClass {
constructor(prop: SomeClass) {
super(prop)
}
}
type abc = SomeClass extends EntityBase ? string : number; // Returns string.
A:
You should add to EntityBase some non-optional property e.g.
class EntityBase {
public isEntityBase = undefined
...
}
This is because TypeScript uses structural subtyping, in other words it checks whether an object implements some interface, by looking at the object's structure (names of properties).
In order to not pollute the API of EntityBase, you could use Symbols:
const isEntityBase = Symbol()
class EntityBase {
public [isEntityBase] = undefined
}

[Progress and extensive meaning of mammalian target of rapamycin involved in restoration of nervous system injury].
To review the possible mechanisms of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in the neuronal restoration process after nervous system injury. The related literature on mTOR in the restoration of nervous system injury was extensively reviewed and comprehensively analyzed. mTOR can integrate signals from extracellular stress and then plays a critical role in the regulation of various cell biological processes, thus contributes to the restoration of nervous system injury. Regulating the activity of mTOR signaling pathway in different aspects can contribute to the restoration of nervous system injury via different mechanisms, especially in the stress-induced brain injury. mTOR may be a potential target for neuronal restoration mechanism after nervous system injury. |

Review:
Gaiapet says:HUGE LOVE! Yayness! They are so perfect together! I love when they are together and happy. It makes me happy! I love Jane's hair in the chapter image. My hair rarely gets that curly. :( Wonky quilt! Jane finds out what book her mother is reading! I thought that it was a little odd that she made a joke right after finding out, since she made such a big point of saying that she wanted to know what it was in an earlier chapter. But I guess that's just how Jane deals with emotion. I just wish there was a bit more. Incidentally, Emma is the only book by Jane Austen that I enjoy reading. I love the plots and movies and characters in the other ones, but I just find them dull. Jane Austen wrote Emma as a heroine that probably only she would love, but I love her. But hey, I love Libby and Amanda too. Mr. P said Dapper. Another point in his box! I'm not sure if that made sense. Plus I'm not actually keeping score. But he pretty much rocks. DOGER! I have made a decision. Doger. I love both Liam and Doger for pretty much the same reasons, but I have yet to see Liam act awkwardly. Doger does. And I do love an awkward duck. Awkward ducks are just so freaking adorable! Adorkable! Haha. Red wine. Jane's legs. If I had known that the pillow on the couch would play such an important role in Jane's life I would have mentioned it when it came up earlier. Better late than never. Oliver's pillow! The gladiator makes an appearance! I love that costume and where it takes me in my mind. Very pretty picture. It should be the chapter image for "The Last Costume". That or Libby in her bunny costume... Haha! That meal sounds wicked good! Pork and mushroom sauce. Yum. Too bad about the green beans though. In my mind it will be broccoli. Have a recipe by any chance? I love jealous Oliver. He is just so vulnerable and un-Olivery when he is jealous. It's sweet. I also love how Jane throws a spoon at him. He deserves it.
It could mean my pleasures were insane, but half the world (like Oliver) could understand them and to the other half it meant I was daft for even considering it.
- Interesting concept. I like it. Better than a the dirty analysis.
Oi, Roger, Oliver and I are having lunch and I’m dressed in a tiny skirt because he’ll think it’s sexy. Oh, by the way I still have feelings for him and I’m going over there with the hopes that he’ll return them.
Bugger.
- Oh, Jane. I just felt so bad for her when I read that. But at least she admits it to herself, even if she later denies it.
“How do you know it won’t happen again?”
“Because I let you go once,” he said, squeezing my fingers. “I’m not letting you go again.”
- Sweet. Not Lee's speech in the garden sweet, but sweet. That made me cry, this just makes me go "awww". But Oliver isn't much of a romantic compared to Lee. Still, very sweet.
“Oh what in blazes does that mean?” I rolled over again, thinking about it. “I can’t understand Oliver’s pleasures? That sounds dirty. Eugh, this is rubbish.”
- Haha. Poor Jane. Motherly advice can be very confusing.
“Where did the food go anyway?” I asked, pulling open the door. “I thought since you got together with Lou we were supposed to look like we actually ate regular food.”
He made a face. “I got sick of the healthy stuff.”
- Mr.P! I guess being tricky is just too difficult. Big love to this interaction. And every interaction between Jane and Mr.P
I don’t know how well it’s going to pan out but I asked her a very stupid question (where the kitchens were) and she looked at me like I was insane, but then I thanked her later and she looked at me like I was less than insane. That’s a start, right? I’m going to see her at a Magpies fundraiser this coming weekend so maybe I’ll ask her to dance. Unless her date is a burly bloke, then no can do.
- DOGER! My love! My chosen one! But not Harry Potter chosen one. More like Ester was the King's chosen one and then they fell in love. Loved the letter! Love the tone of it and what he wrote! Made me laugh quite a few times.
Oliver leapt out from the hallway, standing in the light from the window, and I gasped. Literally, I nearly choked on nothing at all.
- Haha. Seems to happen a lot in this story... I would do the same thing though.
I couldn’t help it, I stared. My jaw fell lopsided again. A conversation on the Quidditch pitch came briefly back to me. The things I would do to him if I saw him in that costume. There was a bit of drool. I could feel it. My face was hot.
So. Never mind about that whole telling him off situation.
- Hahahahahahahahahahaha! At last he used his powers for good!
He broke out red silk napkins and I placed on in my lap, making a joke about how if I spilled the red wine it wouldn’t matter.
Then I did spill it and I was right. It didn’t matter. My lap was wet though.
- You have no idea how funny this is to me. I literally laughed for five minutes after reading it. Or a minute. Basically I did the exact same thing once. Except it was grape juice instead of wine. Hahahahahaha!
Love the next few chapters and this one. I mean, come on, Brownies, Doger, AND Oliver Wood! AMAZING!
Author's Response: Hi again!
My hair won't curl like that if I tried to pay it off with salon products. It just won't. It's straight, but not even that pretty shiny straight. It's like that whole when it gets wet it curls a bit, but it's more like wonky waves because it's layered. Anyway, going to end the immense paragraph about my hair texture now.
You are completely right about that little quip of a joke put in during the whole Emma thing. That is exactly how she deals with stuff like that. She puts off her thoughts onto something else and goes right back to humor as a parachute.
I love a lot of Jane Austen, though I must confess I haven't read everything. I really love Pride and Prejudice and Emma. I need to see all of their movies. I've only seen P&P and Sense and Sensibility, both of which I watch quite often.
I'm glad you finally decided between Roger and Liam! If Liam had more screen time I know you would get to see his awkwardness and more of his personality, but unfortunately there just isn't enough plotties to get him in all the time. :)
I'd use those as chapter images, but wouldn't be allowed to use the second.
I love how it gets compared to the Lee in the garden speech! One of my personal faves!!
I'm glad you enjoyed Roger's letter. I love writing the letters from him, which is probably why I kept him coming back. Honestly, originally I didn't have him planned to appear at ALL in this story. Then I thought maybe I could use him for a few other things. Then I realized his friendship powers with jane. After writing a few letters and letting them play off each other in the restaurant, etc, I realized I needed him to stay for good. I adore him :)
haha I love how you laughed at that red wine thing. That comes from personal experience actually, so that's awesome. Except it was liquor instead of wine lol. |
Q:
How to release my view from stack?
In my application I m using following coding convention to open my default screen :--
AppDelegate *ptrDefaultScreen = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate];
[self.navigationController presentModalViewController:ptrDefaultScreen.FrmFlashScreenLink animated:YES];
but when I move to other screen after default screen ,my default screen is still exists even i used [self dismissModelViewController:YES]; to dimiss default screen from view.
where I m wrong I want my default screen will be completely removed from view.
Is any other way to call default screen before actual application.
Please help me out.Thanks in advance
A:
The approach I use here is to make my default screen a subview of my main view. When I am done with it I either hide it, or removeFromSuperview it depending on memory constraints.

Front-back confusion resolution in three-dimensional sound localization using databases built with a dummy head.
Sound localization plays an important role in everyday life. It helps us to separate sounds coming from different sources and thus to acquire acoustic information. This paper describes an algorithm for localizing the position of a sound source, as recorded by dummy head microphones. The recorded signals are considered to be basic, random signals within an imaginary round room. The goal of this research is to localize random signals produced from different positions using information about basic signals. The method used is based on the identification of similarities between basic and random signals. It includes an interaural time difference comparison at the beginning, and continues with further analysis of the differences in signal spectrums. One of the main issues arising in sound localization is the problem of front-back confusion, and this paper shows how it was resolved by the use of reference signals. |
The proposed work examines the factors that influence the course of interracial interactions. Research on intergroup relations has highlighted the importance of intergroup anxiety in determining people's responses toward outgroup members. Drawing upon previous theorizing from both the prejudice and social anxiety literatures, the proposed work offers a model of the antecedents and implications of anxiety in interracial interactions. Specifically, it is argued that intergroup anxiety results from a lack of positive previous experiences with outgroup members, negative expectation about the corse of interracial interactions, and a lack of personal motivation to respond without bias toward outgroup members. Further, this anxiety is posited to result in heightened hostility toward outgroup members and a desire to avoid interacting with outgroup members, particularly among people who are not personally motivated to respond without prejudice. Intergroup anxiety creates stress in people live's and can result in avoidant coping styles both of which have negative implications of people's psychological well-being. Avoidance of outgroup members can lead to feelings of social isolations among those people who are avoided, which has negative psychological and health-related implications. In addition, if anxiety results in hostility toward outgroup members, this hostility could be stressful for outgroup members and threaten their self-esteem. The proposed work tests the casual relationships in the model using a longitudinal survey approach and a laboratory experiment to examine by developing strategies and interventions to reduce anxiety and the concomitant avoidance, and hostility in interracial interactions. |
Q:
Can I use react-native-i18n library with react-native-web-boilerplate
Can I use react-native-i18n library with react-native-web-boilerplate?
react-native-web-boilerplate is a library (description here) using which you can build an app in react and navigate in desktop, mobile and web platforms.
I was trying my luck with react-native-i18n library but react-native-i18n import fails.
RNI18n object returned as undefined. I can't get current locale, language.
import I18n from 'react-native-i18n'
Has anyone tried using react-native-i18n in a cross platform app?
Or is there any other better way you would like to suggest.
A:
You can inject a constant RNI18n into NativeModules of react-native, because react-native-i18n depends that. And then ensure to execute it before other modules, likes below:
import { NativeModules } from 'react-native'
const languages = [navigator.language]
NativeModules.RNI18n = {
languages,
getLanguages: () => Promise.resolve(languages)
}
const App = require('./src').default // If it's ES6 module
require will keep the order of execution, if you import other modules by import statement, maybe it run first, the injection will invalid.

This Halloween we have a harrowing tale to share with you.
Relive the terrible curse of the mad Dr. Jamison Junkenstein, his ominous master, and the four Wanderers who sought to bury them once and for all. Gray Shuko brings horror to life in The Return of Junkenstein with his chilling illustrations of revenge from beyond the grave.
Doom descended upon Adlersbrunn. Dr. Jamison Junkenstein's lust for revenge had spilled into every street and engulfed the village in a sea of terror. Yet as the town seemed lost, they appeared. Four Wanderers who had traveled from distant lands to vanquish the darkness. When their grim work was done, the doctor's mad laughter haunted the village no longer.
The Wanderers vanished as suddenly as they had appeared. The stories of their valor would live on, but the peace they had brought to Adlersbrunn would not…
Dr. Junkenstein was but the pawn of a greater power: the one known as the Witch of the Wilds. She would not abandon her fallen servant…not while his debt to her remained unpaid. Her forbidden magic breathed the spark of life back into Dr. Junkenstein's cold heart.
Death had not slaked his thirst for chaos, nor had it dimmed his devious mind. He labored to remake his infernal army mightier and more terrible than ever before.
The noble Lord of Adlersbrunn was helpless to stop Dr. Junkenstein's rampage. The only hope he had to save his village lay far beyond its walls…
The winds carried his plea far and wide, first to a legendary Viking craftsman who had fought beside the Lord of Adlersbrunn in days long past. He could not ignore the call of an old friend, no more than he could resist spilling the blood of a new foe.
On and on the ravens flew, even to the misty lake where the Countess dwelled. It was said that she felt no warmth, no cold, no joy, and no sorrow. The only thing that stirred in her heart was an unending hunger, but whether that was what moved her to seek out Adlersbrunn, none could say.
Stranger still were the Monk and his apprentice, the Swordsman. Where they had met and why they had agreed to travel together are tales for another day. But it is said that they answered to a foreboding presence—a force beyond mortal understanding.
Across land and sea, by foot and by hoof, they came. Four they were in number like the Wanderers of old. Trust would not come easy, but they would need it to survive the horrors the Witch had in store.
For she had at her side a faithful servant named the Reaper, and she had claimed a monstrous new ally: the Summoner, who wielded the power of an ancient dragon. Bound to the Witch’s will by pacts forged in blood, they were called to the battle and pledged not to rest until they had destroyed Adlersbrunn once and for all.
And so the endless night began…
Overwatch Halloween Terror has arrived. Grab your friends and stand ready to fight against the darkness!

Q:
understanding external library path qmake
I'm working with Qt and currently I have a problem understanding something about adding external libraries.
What I have now in my .pro file is this:
unix:!macx: LIBS += -L"/home/[RIGHT PATH]" -lOMD
where [RIGHT PATH] is the path to where the library is
if, however I put:
unix:!macx: LIBS += -L"/home/[WRONG PATH, TRASH]" -lOMD
it still works!
if I put:
unix:!macx: LIBS += -L"/home/[RIGHT PATH]"
it doesn't work anymore (compiling errors because it doesn't know some functions that are in the library).
Can someone please explain to me why?
Also, I put these .so files in usr/lib so I shouldn't even have to include them here, right?
Thank you!
A:
The statement -L"PATH" means add PATH the library search
directory list.
The statement -lOMD means load library OMD during linking.
It seems somehow your library is already in the library search path.
Which means LIBS += -lOMD will also work. Aside from some runtime libraries you have to specify the libraries to load.
edit:
/usr/lib is a default library search path. If you manually copy the library there, it will be found.

When US movie producer Michael Moore announced that his new movie “Slacker Uprising” would be available for free download over the internet, he was forced by US copyright law to add a caveat – that it would only be available to residents of the United States and Canada. Anyone outside of those countries would get a big “SORRY!” sign and politely told to sod off.
But he chose to use BitTorrent for the movie’s download and once one US or Canadian person had downloaded it, it was then extremely simple for anyone, anywhere to download it too. This has led to accusations that Moore deliberately thumbed his nose up at the US copyright law, knowing full well that by using BitTorrent, he could circumvent the US / Canada only rule.
“I only own the US and Canadian rights” said Moore, “so my hands are tied. But this is the 21st century. What are ‘geographical rights’? I’ll say it for the hundredth time: If I buy a book and read it, and then give you the book to read, I have broken no laws. Why is that not true for all media?”
So I think basically what he’s saying is that he knew pretty much what would eventually happen to that torrent file and he chose to turn a blind eye to it.
Moore is a big supporter of people who illegally download his movies as he feels that the main thing is that his ideas get around and people think about what he says in his movies. Losing the money from the illegal downloads doesn’t seem to bother him that much which makes you wonder how he can afford to be so blase about box office takings.
So when will he be doing a movie about illegal downloading, the restrictive copyright laws, the RIAA and the movie industry in the USA? That would be a great Michael Moore movie. What do you think? Maybe we should get a petition going!

"Atelier Ryza" is about a girl and her friends on the verge of adulthood, discovering what’s most important to them.
The concept of this title, the latest in the series to depict a new "Atelier" world, is "True-to-life youths that develop together, even if just a little bit".
It is the story of a girl and her friends who are about to become adults, discovering what is most important to them.
To depict the story of the main characters discovering things they've never seen before, we've created fields with natural shadows that allow you to feel the breath of the world. Graphics have been further enhanced, allowing for a world of daily-life and adventure to be depicted in a new way.
Main points
■Advanced "Synthesis" system & "Location Points"
The "Synthesis" system in which players combine materials to create items has been revamped.
Now, in addition to being able to understand the effects of synthesis visually, the system allows you to enjoy the experience of developing recipes more than ever before.
Also, we've included "Location Points" that players can create through synthesis!
■Use different items to gather new materials!
When "Gathering" the necessary materials for synthesis, the items you receive change depending on the tools you use to gather them, so it will be easier to obtain the items you want.
■Intense battles
With a combination of turn-based command battle and real time elements, enjoy intense battles where the choices you make determine the outcome! It is a system that will allow you to sense the feeling of strengthening bonds with your friends more than ever.
Story
The main character is Ryza, an ordinary girl.
Tired of boring village life, she escapes the village to gather with her good friends in a secret location to talk of their dreams and plan thrilling adventures.
One day, the determined Ryza and company decide to head for the forbidden "island across the shore" as their first exploration trip.
Together with the alchemist and other friends they meet there, they have a "summer adventure" that they will never forget. |

Make Your Home Office In Ft. Lauderdale Unique With Custom Office Furniture
Having your own home office in Ft. Lauderdale has several benefits. Not the least of them is the fact that there is no commute. You just walk about ten paces and you’re at work. Ten more and you are home again. It can save you two or three hours a day stuck in traffic with all the consequent aggravation that brings.
Another big advantage of having a home office is that YOU design it. You are not working in a building designed by others whose ideas may not appeal to you at all. A big part of that design should be custom office furniture for your Ft. Lauderdale “home office” or “office office.”
Why custom office furniture? Again, it’s because you can have it built in exactly the way that you wish, rather than having to choose something designed by someone else.
Have you ever looked at a desk and thought “I could do with something a little bit bigger”? Or “I could really use another couple of drawers”? Or “Well, that desk doesn’t look too bad, but I wish it was made out of cherry wood”?
You are going to spend a lot of time in your home office so it’s worth having it exactly the way you want it rather than making do with something designed by someone else. You want your office chair to be totally comfortable because you spend a lot of hours sitting in it. Perhaps you have clients coming to visit you, so you want a comfortable easy chair for them to sit in. Custom office furniture for your Ft. Lauderdale office can give you exactly what you want.
A Room In Which You WANT To Be
Your office needs to be a room in which you WANT to be rather than have to be. Certainly you do have to be in there, so it might as well ooze comfort and appeal and help to make your working day a pleasure. You can have paintings on the walls. You can have a refrigerator with your favorite tipple in there. You can arrange the furniture so that you can easily look out at the beauty of your yard, or the fields or woods behind your home when you are sitting at your desk. All of this can be achieved with custom office furniture for your Ft. Lauderdale office, whether it’s in your home or in your business.
We have been in the business of designing and manufacturing custom office furniture to our clients’ specifications for many years, so we have a lot of ideas that might suit you. We will be happy to visit you at a convenient time and answer all your questions.
Based in Miami but serving the greater South Florida area such as Ft. Lauderdale and West Palm Beach, Cepero Remodeling is known as the place to go for custom design services.

Q:
Use memoized value in immer.js draft
I have a complex object (graph - nodes and edges) in state which I update with immer.js. I memoize some computations on the object (e.g. node adjacency list) using memoize-one library. However this is a problem since the draft is not identical with the original object.
Is there a way to solve this, e.g. somehow extract original object from immer.js draft?
Note that I use a curried producer, therefore producer declaration has no access to the original object.
Simple example of the issue:
const x = { foo: { bar: "bar" } };
const barLength = memoizeOne(foo => {
console.log("updating memoized value...");
return foo.bar.length;
});
console.log("value updated", barLength(x.foo));
console.log("memoized value used", barLength(x.foo));
const producer = produce(draft => {
draft.lastFooBarLength = barLength(draft.foo); // triggers update memoized value
});
console.log(producer(x).lastFooBarLength);
A:
There is a function which is called literally original that does that:

Q:
mysql select on multiple table and multiple or condition
i'm need help about sql query to select multiple table with multiple "or" condition. this is my database schema.
Hotel
id_hotel
id_state
id_city
hotel_name
State
id_state
state_name
City
id_city
city_name
thi is the query that i'm have been try, but result nothing.
$sql=mysqli_query($connection,"select * from hotel h, state s, city c where h.id_state=s.id_state and h.id_city=c.id_city and (h.hotel_name='$_GET[data]' or s.state_name='$_GET[data]' or c.city_name='$_GET[data]')");
I was try with that code.. and there is no result. Please help me guys.. tq
A:
There are so many issues with your code that telling you and explaining everything you have to fix would take awhile, so I will list the basic and what you need to do.
You're not using any error handler at all, you should always use it while testing / developing, for instance MySQL error, code error and the such, which would have told you some of the issues you currently have.
You can read this page for more information on How to get useful error messages in php.
Continuing, you're using $_GET[data] inside double quotes which makes it loses its boundaries as you have not defined any for it, if you had any error handling it would have been pointed out.
You could have concatenated it " . $_GET['data'] . " or even used the curly brackets to define its boundaries like so {$_GET['data']}
You're injecting GET elements directly in your query without sanitizing it, which is a big mistake and a welcome to SQL injection.
All the above is based in the small portion of code you showed us and I am afraid to see the rest of it.
Here is a sample of how it would look like to use JOINs in your query along with parametized MySQLi.
<?php
// yes we want to see errors
ini_set('error_reporting', E_ALL);
// Your database info
$db_host = 'your database host address';
$db_user = 'your database username';
$db_pass = 'your database user password';
$db_name = 'your database name';
$con = mysqli_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass, $db_name);
if ($con->connect_error)
{
die('Connect Error (' . mysqli_connect_errno() . ') '. mysqli_connect_error());
}
$sql = "SELECT h.id_hotel,
h.hotel_name,
s.id_state,
s.state_name,
c.id_city,
c.city_name
FROM hotel h
JOIN state s
ON h.id_state = s.id_state
JOIN city c
ON h.id_city = c.id_city
WHERE h.hotel_name = ? OR
s.state_name = ? OR
c.city_name = ?";
if (!$result = $con->prepare($sql))
{
die('Query failed: (' . $con->errno . ') ' . $con->error);
}
if (!$result->bind_param('sss', $_GET['data'], $_GET['data'], $_GET['data']))
{
die('Binding parameters failed: (' . $result->errno . ') ' . $result->error);
}
if (!$result->execute())
{
die('Execute failed: (' . $result->errno . ') ' . $result->error);
}
$result->bind_result($hotel_id, $hotel_name, $state_id, $state_name, $city_id, $city_name);
while ($result->fetch())
{
echo $hotel_id, " - ", $hotel_name, " - ", $state_id, " - ", $state_name, " - ", $city_id, " - ", $city_name, "\n";
}
$result->close();
$con->close();

Q:
Select "this" element after completed ajax call
Using Jquery, after a completed ajax call, how can I say remove() this element you just clicked? Using the following code doesn't work:
$( ".deletegid" ).click(function() {
var imageid = $(this).attr('name');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/public/index.php/admin/content/athletes/deleteimagefromgallery",
data: {
imageid: imageid,
galleryid: $("input[name=athletes_gid]").val(),
ci_csrf_token: $("input[name=ci_csrf_token]").val()
}
})
.done(function() {
$(this).remove();
});
});
A:
Use context option of ajax to set context to current element:
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
context:this,
url: "/public/index.php/admin/content/athletes/deleteimagefromgallery",
data: { imageid: imageid ,galleryid: $("input[name=athletes_gid]").val(), ci_csrf_token: $("input[name=ci_csrf_token]").val() }
})
.done(function() {
$(this).remove();
});

The Burst of Motivation
If you hate being woken to the sound of the alarm at 5am I have one piece of advice for you: Don’t work in fitness. Fitness professionals live to help others achieve their health and fitness goals and as most of our clients work during normal working hours, mornings and nights are the necessary times for us to work. While this could be seen as a burden there’s one thing I love about working before the world has woken up: The drive to work.
One of the pleasures of driving to work in the morning, other than the fact that you have the roads to yourself, is seeing those impressive people who get up and go running. It’s the same people every morning. There’s the girl who always seems to be pushing herself really hard up the hill, I seem to remember someone told me she was an amazing netball player. Then there’s the guy who looks like a bit of a hippy who runs on the road and I’m always worried that I’m going to hit him. There’s also a couple of older ladies who seem to be enjoying each others company as they are beating the streets together.
I don’t know these people but I feel I have an affinity with them. While the rest of the world is getting the last of their precious sleep, these characters in the story of my drive to work remind me that I need to keep challenging myself in my life. By them doing something that is good for them they remind me what is good for me.
Occasionally there will be someone who breaks the routine of my drive to work. They are new, someone I have never seen before. They are out there running or walking but for some reason they don’t have that look of ease that my regular runners have. Inside I wonder if they are someone who has hit a moment in their life where they know they need to create some change.
On this particular day they have set the alarm early, motivated themselves to get out of bed and head out the door which is an awesome achievement in itself. Unfortunately I never seem to see these people again. Why is that? I’m sure when these people get home they feel good about themselves. That getting up and going for this early morning run sets up a momentum of good behavior for the rest of the day. They have probably even let the people in their world know that they got up early and went for a run in the morning. So why don’t I see them again?
For many of us we experience what I call the ‘burst of motivation’. It can come from that moment when you have let your habits fall off the wagon for a long period of time, and you know that you have to change. In this moment you get a burst of motivation and determine that tomorrow is going to be different. You create a plan where you get up much earlier than you normally do and go for a run, two things which are big challenges for you.
The downfall of this burst of motivation is that the actions we put in place at these times are often a massive stretch forward from our current ability and experience. This burst means that you can pull if off, but only once or twice as it’s just too hard. Unfortunately on that third morning when you have stayed in bed after the alarm went off there’s a chance that you will see yourself in a negative light. This might tell you that you’ll ‘never be good at exercise’.
There is value in the burst of motivation but you need to learn how to use it effectively. When you feel it coming on don’t aim for the most challenging activity, instead ask yourself ‘how can I build a habit and what are the ways that I can be most successful at doing this?’ By asking this question you will look for the best times of day for you to train, what types of environments work for you, who will guide you and what is the appropriate level for you to start at. If you figure this out you’re on a much safer path to success, one where the odds aren’t against you, instead they are in your favour.
If you enjoy my pieces you can get them emailed to you when I put them on the internet. This way you won't have to come back to my website to check when a new piece is out. Don't worry I won't spam you. If you want to join up just put your details in here: |

Childhood severe asthma: New insights on remodelling and biomarkers.
Severe asthma in children is characterised by severe and multiple aeroallergen sensitisation, food allergy, eosinophilic airway inflammation and airway remodelling. However, it is a heterogeneous disease with considerable variability in the manifestation of each of these characteristics between patients. Recent data from mechanistic studies that have used translational approaches including neonatal mouse models and airway bronchoscopic samples, have shown specific molecular mediators that drive remodelling and steroid resistance in paediatric severe asthma will be discussed. The importance of undertaking studies using age appropriate models and primary cells from children to identify novel therapeutic targets will be highlighted. |
Q:
How to implement user suspend feature in iOS
In an iOS application, When I detect a users improper action (for example posting violent content), I wan't to suspend the user from using my application. The basic idea to implement this feature is to create and save an unique id for each application installs and suspend the usage from server api's.
My question is, how can I implement this feature even if the user re-installs the application, and still pass the Apple's iTunes submission?
I came up with two ways to technically implement this feature, but wondering how Apple would respond.
Store the IDFA (I understand that users can reset the id on their behalf)
Store an app generated udid to the Keychain (which should not be deleted even if the user deletes the app)
I know there are no perfect answers, but would appreciate to discuss this issue with anyone that have tried submitting a similar application, or anyone that is well aware of the Apple's guidelines. Thank you.
A:
Apple will reject apps that inappropriately use the IDFA.
If your app does not use server login (at which point, whatever flags you require could be delivered to the client), keychain storage would be the only real solution.
However, if you don't use server login, you block the device, not the user. Is this your intent?
BTW, without server login, a determined user can still get around keychain storage: Reset keychain on the device

Antigenic variants in a plaque-isolate of foot-and-mouth disease virus: implications for vaccine production.
The occurrence of many subtypes within a serotype of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) makes it difficult to control the disease by vaccination. Although inactivated vaccines are used successfully in many countries, the appearance in the field of antigenic variants against which the vaccines do not confer protection is a constant problem in vaccine manufacture. We had found previously a mixture of antigenic variants in a field isolate of serotype A12. In this report we demonstrate the presence of two variants in a plaque-isolate from this mixture. The second variant was detected only when the growth conditions were altered. Our observation points to the problems which may be encountered in the large scale growth of a virus for vaccine production. |

Q:
Modifying open source project while incorporating remote changes with Git
I had git cloned the MapBox-ios-sdk project. I've made a few ugly hack changes to the code that was not appropriate to contribute back. But MapBox-ios-sdk changed recently. If I want to merge their latest changes to my project while still maintaining my hack, what's the best practice about doing that with Git? Should I have branched initially when I cloned? Or should I just modify in the master branch and just git pull from the official source and resolve conflict, and keep it at that for future sdk version as well?
A:
I'm going to assume that your hack has been committed to your local master branch. You can move it to a branch by doing something like:
git branch -m master myhack
git branch myhack^ master
This will give you a myhack branch with your one commit on it (adjust myhack^ if there is more than one commit), and a master branch that matches the original master from the project.
At this point, you can pull new code into your local master branch without conflict. Then, switch to your myhack branch and merge the new master in:
git checkout myhack
git merge master

(CNN) The team planning for President Donald Trump's impeachment trial in the Senate believes there are "significant and important" executive privilege issues regarding the potential testimony of former national security adviser John Bolton, according to a source familiar with the team's discussions.
The source told CNN on Friday that the Senate trial team sees Bolton's possible testimony as going "to the heart" of the President's constitutional powers under Article II.
Bolton shook the capital earlier this week when he said he is prepared to testify at Trump's impeachment trial, should he be subpoenaed to do so. Bolton issued a statement Monday after the courts did not rule on whether he would be compelled to testify during the House's impeachment proceedings, saying he was trying to meet his "obligations both as a citizen and as former national security adviser."
"Accordingly, since my testimony is once again at issue, I have had to resolve the serious competing issues as best I could, based on careful consideration and study," Bolton said. "I have concluded that, if the Senate issues a subpoena for my testimony, I am prepared to testify."
The former national security adviser would be a critical witness due to his firsthand knowledge of many of the events that led to Trump being impeached over his dealings with Ukraine. The President was impeached in December on two articles: abuse of power, for pressuring Ukraine to announce an investigation into Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, and obstruction of Congress, for ordering multiple top officials in his administration to ignore subpoenas for their testimony in the probe and ignoring subpoenas for relevant documents.

Current Scenario of Pb Toxicity in Plants: Unraveling Plethora of Physiological Responses.
Lead (Pb) is an extremely toxic metal for all living forms including plants. It enters plants through roots from soil or soil solution. It is considered as one of the most eminent examples of anthropogenic environmental pollutant added in environment through mining and smelting of lead ores, coal burning, waste from battery industries, leaded paints, metal plating, and automobile exhaust. Uptake of Pb in plants is a nonselective process and is driven by H+/ATPases. Translocation of Pb metal ions occurs by apoplastic movement resulting in deposition of metal ions in the endodermis and is further transported by symplastic movement. Plants exposed to high concentration of Pb show toxic symptoms due to the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through Fenton-Haber-Weiss reaction. ROS include superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical, and hydrogen peroxide, which reach to macro- and micro-cellular levels in the plant cells and cause oxidative damage. Plant growth and plethora of biochemical and physiological attributes including plant growth, water status, photosynthetic efficiency, antioxidative defense system, phenolic compounds, metal chelators, osmolytes, and redox status are adversely influenced by Pb toxicity. Plants respond to toxic levels of Pb in varied ways such as restricted uptake of metal, chelation of metal ions to the root endodermis, enhancement in activity of antioxidative defense, alteration in metal transporters expression, and involvement of plant growth regulators. |
Losing my Identity – Art by Charlotte Farhan
Losing My Identity is a depiction of the identity disturbance which people such as myself endure due to having Borderline Personality Disorder.
So imagine living your life with no sense of self, not knowing yourself from your past, present and future, how would this affect your day to day life?
Having a sense of self is something which as a species sets us apart from other animals and is a complicated subject within philosophy and psychology. Your identity is generally made up of your beliefs, attitudes, behaviour, personality, knowledge and what social roles you see yourself in.
Identity is formed in early childhood and then continues to progress and adapt until early adulthood, and by your mid-twenties a secure sense of self is common in most.
We learn primarily from our parents who we are, such as are we “good” or “bad”. This also inturn makes us aware of others and how we relate to them. With borderline personality disorder, however, the distinction between “good” and “bad” seems to remain as the only two variables in which to see themselves and others. This causes splitting which is the extreme shifting of black and white thinking, from idealisation and devaluation of the self and others.
Losing my Identity – By Charlotte Farhan
Here are my accompanying poems which describe each identity which I have felt I am, at different times, never really knowing who is who, or if who I am is real. |

Management of neuropathic pain in children with cancer.
Many children with cancer suffer from neuropathic pain. However, there are no published pediatric randomized controlled trials (RCTs), nor agreed upon pediatric treatment recommendations. Pediatric neuropathic pain in patients with malignancies is often underassessed and undertreated with ineffective therapies. This article describes main themes in the literature and commonly used treatment strategies. A combination of integrative, rehabilitative, and supportive therapies with pharmacotherapy, including first line medications such as NSAIDs, opioids, low-dose tricyclics, and gabapentinoids, appear to be successful treatment strategies. There is a dearth of evidence regarding the management of neuropathic pain in children with cancer; studies, especially RCTs, are desperately needed. |
Glycation and inactivation of aspartate aminotransferase in diabetic rat tissues.
Glycated cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase was detected in the liver and kidney of streptozotocin diabetic rats using a boronate affinity column for adjacent cis-hydroxyl groups and an immunoblotting technique. The enzymatic activity and amount of immunoreactive substance were determined in the liver, kidney, and erythrocytes of diabetic and control rats. The ratio of enzymatic activity to the amount of enzyme was lower in diabetic rat tissue than in that in the control rats. It has been suggested that there is an inactive aspartate aminotransferase molecule in the tissues of diabetic rats. We therefore suggest that the cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase was inactivated in the diabetic rat tissues by a glycation reaction, accompanied by an impairment in glucose utilization. |
Morphological instability during steady electrodeposition at overlimiting currents.
We present a linear stability analysis of a planar metal electrode during steady electrodeposition. We extend the previous work of Sundstrom and Bark by accounting for the extended space-charge density, which develops at the cathode once the applied voltage exceeds a few thermal voltages. In accordance with Chazalviel's conjecture, the extended space-charge region is found to greatly affect the morphological stability of the electrode. To supplement the numerical solution of the stability problem, we have derived analytical expressions valid in the limit of low and high voltage, respectively. |
A mathematical approach for evaluating Markov models in continuous time without discrete-event simulation.
Markov models are a simple and powerful tool for analyzing the health and economic effects of health care interventions. These models are usually evaluated in discrete time using cohort analysis. The use of discrete time assumes that changes in health states occur only at the end of a cycle period. Discrete-time Markov models only approximate the process of disease progression, as clinical events typically occur in continuous time. The approximation can yield biased cost-effectiveness estimates for Markov models with long cycle periods and if no half-cycle correction is made. The purpose of this article is to present an overview of methods for evaluating Markov models in continuous time. These methods use mathematical results from stochastic process theory and control theory. The methods are illustrated using an applied example on the cost-effectiveness of antiviral therapy for chronic hepatitis B. The main result is a mathematical solution for the expected time spent in each state in a continuous-time Markov model. It is shown how this solution can account for age-dependent transition rates and discounting of costs and health effects, and how the concept of tunnel states can be used to account for transition rates that depend on the time spent in a state. The applied example shows that the continuous-time model yields more accurate results than the discrete-time model but does not require much computation time and is easily implemented. In conclusion, continuous-time Markov models are a feasible alternative to cohort analysis and can offer several theoretical and practical advantages. |
EELS analysis of cation valence states and oxygen vacancies in magnetic oxides
Transition metal oxides are a class of materials that are vitally important for developing new materials with functionality and smartness. The unique properties of these materials are related to the presence of elements with mixed valences of transition elements. Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) in the transmission electron microscope is a powerful technique for measuring the valences of some transition metal elements of practical importance. This paper reports our current progress in applying EELS for quantitative determination of Mn and Co valences in magnetic oxides, including valence state transition, quantification of oxygen vacancies, refinement of crystal structures, and identification of the structure of nanoparticles. |
Bacterial topoisomerases, anti-topoisomerases, and anti-topoisomerase resistance.
Topoisomerases are ubiquitous enzymes necessary for controlling the interlinking and twisting of DNA molecules. Among the four topoisomerases identified in eubacteria, two, DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV have been exploited by nature and the pharmaceutical industry as antibacterial targets. Natural products that are inhibitors of one or both of these topoisomerases include the coumarin and cyclothialidine classes, which interfere with adenosine triphosphate hydrolysis, cinodine, flavones, and terpenoid derivatives. The plasmid-encoded bacterial peptides micron B17 and CcdB also inhibit DNA gyrase. The quinolones, a synthetic class of antibacterials that act on both DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV have had the broadest clinical applications, however. Quinolone congeners differ in their relative potencies for DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV Studies of an expanding set of resistant mutant enzymes and the crystal structure of the homologous enzyme in yeast have contributed to our understanding of interactions of these drugs with topoisomerase-DNA complexes and the ways in which mutations effect resistance. |
Tanishaa has been a controversial captain since day one. Whether it’s taking a decision for her team or choosing contestants for a task, her choices were always questioned.
“Though contestants mutually elected Tanishaa as the captain of Red team, her decision as the captain has always put her team in trouble,” said a source.
During a task, the “Neal ‘n’ Nikki” actress chose Tina and Faisal to perform a task against their will, which led to an argument.
“During one such task, she nominated Tina and Faisal to perform the task against their will. This led to a heated argument between Tanishaa, Tina and Faisal but eventually both of them performed the task,” the source added. |

"Deeply researched and impeccably even-handed in its treatment of scientists and evangelicals, Existential Threats fills a large gap in the historical literature about apocalyptic writings in American culture."—Grant Wacker, author of America's Pastor: Billy Graham and the Shaping of a Nation
"Existential Threats offers lucidly written and knowledgeable discussions of fundamentalism, Pentecostalism, premillennialism, and dispensationalism and brings them to bear on a topic of interest to both religion and science: the end of the world as Americans imagine it."—Ronald L. Numbers, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Americans have long been enthralled by visions of the apocalypse. Will the world end through nuclear war, environmental degradation, and declining biodiversity? Or, perhaps, through the second coming of Christ, rapture of the faithful, and arrival of the Antichrist—a set of beliefs known as dispensationalist premillennialism? These seemingly competing apocalyptic fantasies are not as dissimilar as we might think. In fact, Lisa Vox argues, although these secular and religious visions of the end of the world developed independently, they have converged to create the landscape of our current apocalyptic imagination.
In Existential Threats, Vox assembles a wide range of media—science fiction movies, biblical tractates, rapture fiction—to develop a critical history of the apocalyptic imagination from the late 1800s to the present. Apocalypticism was once solely a religious ideology, Vox contends, which has secularized in response to increasing technological and political threats to American safety. Vox reads texts ranging from Christianity Today articles on ecology and the atomic bomb to Dr. Strangelove, and from Mary Shelley's The Last Man to the Left Behind series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, demonstrating along the way that conservative evangelicals have not been as resistant to science as popularly believed and that scientists and science writers have unwittingly reproduced evangelical eschatological themes and scenarios in their own works. Existential Threats argues that American apocalypticism reflects and propagates our ongoing debates over the authority of science, the place of religion, uses of technology, and America's evolving role in global politics. |

Recent concepts in bile formation and cholestasis.
Progress has recently been made in the understanding of normal bile secretion mechanisms. The membrane carriers for bile acids have been identified and new insights into intracellular transport mechanisms have been obtained. In particular, characterization of a vesicular pathway involving the Golgi apparatus is well under way. Hypercholeretic bile acids, such as ursodeoxycholic acid, have been discovered. Their choleretic effect is far greater than that of physiological bile acids and they stimulate bicarbonate secretion. Testable hypotheses to explain their hypercholeretic effect have been proposed, in particular the chole-hepatic shunt hypothesis. Several mechanisms capable of inducing cholestasis have been identified: a) inhibition of Na+, K(+)-ATPase; b) increased permeability of the paracellular pathway leading to leakage of bile constituents back into plasma; c) microtubule or microfilament dysfunction; d) increased cytosolic free calcium concentration due to permeabilization of the endoplasmic reticulum calcium stores. It is not yet possible, in a given case, to establish which of these mechanisms is predominant. Several may operate. A better knowledge of the mechanisms involved may lead to improved treatment. |

No Data Corruption & Data Integrity
Discover what No Data Corruption & Data Integrity is and how it can be beneficial for the files within your website hosting account.
Data corruption is the damage of data caused by various hardware or software failures. When a file is damaged, it will no longer work accurately, so an application will not start or shall give errors, a text file can be partially or entirely unreadable, an archive will be impossible to open and then unpack, etc. Silent data corruption is the process of information getting damaged without any acknowledgement by the system or an administrator, that makes it a significant problem for web hosting servers as failures are very likely to occur on larger hard disks where significant volumes of info are located. If a drive is part of a RAID and the information on it is duplicated on other drives for redundancy, it is more than likely that the bad file will be treated as an ordinary one and it'll be duplicated on all drives, making the damage permanent. A lot of the file systems that run on web servers today often are not able to locate corrupted files right away or they need time-consuming system checks through which the server is not operational.
The integrity of the data that you upload to your new cloud hosting account will be ensured by the ZFS file system which we employ on our cloud platform. The vast majority of internet hosting providers, like our firm, use multiple hard drives to store content and considering that the drives work in a RAID, the exact same information is synchronized between the drives at all times. When a file on a drive gets damaged for whatever reason, however, it is likely that it will be copied on the other drives because other file systems do not include special checks for this. Unlike them, ZFS works with a digital fingerprint, or a checksum, for every single file. In case a file gets corrupted, its checksum will not match what ZFS has as a record for it, which means that the damaged copy shall be substituted with a good one from another disk drive. Due to the fact that this happens right away, there's no risk for any of your files to ever be corrupted.
Your semi-dedicated hosting account will be protected against silent data corruption as all of our storage servers work with the reliable ZFS file system. What makes the latter unique is that it employs checksums, or digital identifiers, to guarantee the integrity of each and every file. When you upload content to your account, it will be placed on a couple of redundant drives operating in a RAID i.e. the files shall be the same on all disks. All the copies of a specific file will feature the same checksum on all drives and ZFS will compare the checksums of the copies quickly, so if it discovers a mismatch, which would indicate that one of the copies is damaged, it'll replace that file with a healthy copy from one of the other disks. Even if there is an unforeseen power failure, the data on the servers will not get corrupted and there will not be any need for a time-consuming system check that other file systems perform after some malfunction, extending the time needed for the server to return online. ZFS is the file system that can really protect your content from silent data corruption. |
How do you feel about Gun Control?
There seems to be a push toward government intervention and with all the shootings that keep getting publicized in the news, we will all eventually be affected by guns in some way. Now of course we have the 2nd Amendment (for now), but what if the government did attempted to take that right away? What you be comfortable giving up your right to LEGALLY protect yourself while criminals who already ILLEGALLY protect themselves will not only have an upper hand, but an open season to start hunting unarmed homes?
What push? There have been a heap of shootings since Sandy Hook, and nothing has changed. There may be changes at state levels, but I doubt anything at the national level will happen. It is too close to elections and Congress is useless.
As for how I feel, I am in favor of abolishing the Second Amendment and severely restricting gun ownership. Guns would only be allowed for hunting purposes. Absent that level of restriction than I am in favor of universal registration, far stricter background checks and training requirements, and punishment for owners/manufacturers of guns used in violence.
And I know my opinion will cause some to have convulsions, you might as well save your comments. I no longer care what the pro-gun side thinks. I no longer am interested in debate. I can and will vote to take your guns away.
Our nation is one built on independence. Lots of Americans died so that you can have the freedom to state that opinion you just stated. Without gun rights we are basically going backwards. read a history book, find out why we have the right.
Read a book written in this century. I don't live in the past. Guns did nothing to prevent the erosion of our democracy or the rise of the most powerful central government in existence. They are now irrelevant.
Note that the best that junk can do is to "vote" to take our guns away. Actually ~taking~ them away himself? No... that is far beyond his capabilities and abilities. He may find that his 'taking" has much more blowback for him than he ever imagined.
Was wondering when you would show up. I believe in democracy, not authoritarian takings, so it wouldn't ever be MY taking, it would be ours. If you don't like democracy, that's your problem. Can't help you with that.
A man kept destroying his neighbors fence with a bulldozer for years. One day he did not stop at the fence. He destroyed the neighborhood and almost killed people. Houses were destroyed. When there are warning signs people should have things like bulldozers and guns taken away from them.
You do not just need protection from criminals. You also need protection from the crazy people and the people that shoot first and see who it is later. I live in Canada and I do not have a gun so I am biased but there is obviously a problem involving guns in the United States. Problems should be fixed.
Some of the driving laws were changed where I live and it saved a lot of lives. Fewer teenagers are getting into car accidents. Ignoring problems does not help.
In the US the Government now monitors our phone calls, internet use and has centralized cameras in public places. With face recognition software they can trac most people's lives. Once they get the guns, we must obey, we must obey.
Mike you are reacting to the stories that main stream media is pushing out there. They don't tell you about the amount of gun killings that happen in the "Urban" areas all due to ILLEGAL guns. Legal guns are rarely used compared to ILLEGAL.
I'm against gun control. The bad guys will always have guns no matter what we do because they don't care about the law. We need laws that let the good guys have guns for protection.
I also think there's a reason it's the second amendment, not the first or third of fifth or any other number.
The first amendment is for a peaceful revolution.You have the right to say the government is corruptyou have a right to publish articles in the media that say the government is corruptyou have a right to peaceably assemble and protest the governmentyou have a right to your religion which gives you morals so you can tell when and how the government is being corrupt.
The first amendment is obviously a way for the people to start a peaceful revolution. A war of words and information instead of guns.
If the government limits our words, then we may have to resort to the second amendment, a violent revolution. Although I pray this never happens.
Evil is evil no matter what the choice weapon may be. The law abiding citizens will not be able to protect themselves if made to give up their guns. The right to bear arms at least gives them a fighting chance. I do believe these weapons should be under lock and key though in a home with children or at least kept out of reach.
I don't think it's possible in the U.S. The right to bare arms is right up there with baseball and apple pie. It's ingrained in our national fabric.Secondly criminals will never abide by laws! Unless all guns were removed from (all citizens) it's unlikely we'd see a major drop in murders by guns because criminals will simply steal them or buy them on the "black market" just like illegal drugs are bought are sold.
People have always killed each other and always will. There were murders long before there were guns. Making guns illegal would only create a huge black market for guns and give criminals the upper hand. If guns were never invented, then these crazy folks would be killing people with swords, or knives, or maybe sticks and rocks. It is important to think about what the government is trying to control when they start taking things away. Are they trying to control guns or citizens? Have we learned nothing from prohibition or the war on drugs?
What do you think about gun control? Stricter or needs to be more lax?This issue always comes up during an unfortunate tragedy, I would like to know what people think. Keep it sensible and respectful please.
When is the right time to talk about gun control - NOT banning guns, but sensible controls?Why is it whenever the subject of gun control is brought up people get so hostile and angry about protecting guns at all costs?...
What is it about gun control that makes people so crazy? Wouldn't "some" be better than NONE?I understand the 2nd amendment but who really needs to buy a semi-automatic weapon? Is it just a matter of "my... |

Lynden Gooch is relieved to back in the first team fold at Sunderland after admitting he rushed his return from injury last season.
Gooch was a suprise starter at the beginning of David Moyes’ tenure last season, before a dip in form saw him taken out of the side. It was in the U23 set-up that he suffered a serious ankle injury, from which his season never really recovered.
A superb display at Brunton Park in the Carabao Cup means he is now firmly in contention for a spot in the starting XI and he says he has been invigorated as a result.
“It was a frustrating time,” he said. “I was doing really well and it stopped my momentum. It was really hard getting back.
“I probably came back earlier than I should have, trying to push myself and help the team. It took me a while and I probably wasn’t back to normal, back to my best, until the end of the season.
“I just wanted to make sure that this season with the new manager I was ready to go.
“I had a little setback towards the end of pre-season, which halted me a bit, but it’s all come together now.
“Last season was up and down. It started so well for me then everything crashed down around December time and the club going down was a huge disappointment. I definitely needed the summer to recharge the batteries and get back focused on helping the team as much as I could.”
Simon Grayson has vowed to give Sunderland’s younger players a chance this season, with George Honeyman starting in every league game so far.
The Black Cats boss also has big hopes for Duncan Watmore and Paddy McNair, who are nearing returns from cruciate ligament injuries.
Gooch says Grayson has been a great source of encouragement for the club’s youngsters.
He said: “From day one the manager said we would all get the chance and on Tuesday I got mine. Carlisle was my first start for a long time after my injury and everything so it was a relief. For the last six or so months it’s been tough but it’s worked out in the end.
“He just demands hard work, togetherness. I think everyone can see that, that all the boys are pulling together. The gaffer said from day one we’re a family now and we stick together no matter what. I think you can see that.
“We’re picking up points and doing well and I think we’re on the right track.” |
Here is an amazing video I’ve found on you tube of a Pit Bull giving birth. If you guys plan to breed pit bull’s at least make sure that the mother is the larger of them carrying the pups. The smaller breeds of pit bull’s that get pregnant by a larger breed are at risk since the puppies may be too large to carry. |

How to create a caption for a pure CSS/HTML Slider with thumbnails, no java/jquery
I'm trying to create a slider that has image thumbnails that you use to navigate with. I also want to create a caption for each slide, to appear and disappear with their specific slides.
This is what I have at the moment, http://jsfiddle.net/yb02jzbq/
(Sourced from http://thecodeplayer.com/walkthrough/css3-image-slider-with-stylized-thumbnails)
As you can see it's just missing the captions, if you remove the id="d-slide1" in one of the first divs, you will see what I'm trying to achieve. I'd prefer if the captions also followed the main images effects (if easier than scaling, could you make it slide in from right to left?)
A:
Sorry for the late response. I think I solved your problem. First I changed your titles to class='d-slide' in order to remove dependency on id's and counters(for unique IDs). Also instead of a gazillion lines for each ID, you use:
.d-slide{visibility:hidden; display:inline-block;}
After that's it's easy. This line does the trick for me:
.slider input[name='slide_switch']:checked+label+img+.d-slide {
visibility: visible;
}
Here is the fiddle.

A practical technique for measuring human biofluid conductivity using high gain-frequency characteristics.
Currently, the study of ion composition and performance in human biofluids plays an important role in biomedical engineering research and technology. This field may become universal for human diagnostics; it allows early detection of different diseases in humans by measuring changes in ion behaviour in human biofluids. Practical experiments were conducted to analyse the liquid composite electrolyte conductivity in an alternating electric current field. These experiments allow the contribution of separate types of ions to the overall conductivity to be estimated. The method of estimating the concentration of active ions contained in biofluids is also introduced; it illustrates the possibility of performing qualitative and quantitative analysis over a wide range of concentrations and compositions. The authors present a procedure to determine the concentration of active liquid ions based on conductivity gain-frequency characteristic curve tracing. The experimental results validate the practical use of the proposed method. The results of this research are promising, and further investigation is required to further improve the method. |
Alteration of midkine expression associated with chemically-induced differentiation in human neuroblastoma cells.
Midkine (MK), a neurotrophic polypeptide of which expression is developmentally regulated in embryogenesis, is expressed in malignant tumor tissues including neuroblastoma (NB). A retinoic acid analogue, E5166, and dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) are known to induce differentiation in NB cells. This study showed that MK mRNA expression increased in association with differentiation by E5166, but not by dbcAMP in SK-N-SH and KP-N-RTBM1 human NB cell lines. We concluded that MK could be an important factor in differentiation of NB cells, and further, that there could be at least two pathways in differentiation of NB cells at molecular mechanism. |
Q:
Does CC.NET detect modification when a build script performs a checkin
I've been doing some research into finally automating our Development builds and still have one nagging question that I'm hoping the StackOverflow community can solve for me.
My understanding is that an IntervalTrigger when setup properly will check VSS every X seconds for changes and if it finds a modified file, will run my tasks. One of my tasks would be to checkout the AssemblyInfo files and update the version numbers. After these files are updated they would be checked back into VSS.
Thinking about this solution it doesn't make much sense because in my mind, I'm forcing the check for changed files to true every time the trigger fires. Am I missing something here? Is there a way of doing this without triggering an automatic build on the AssemblyInfo check-in?
A:
You can use a Filtered Source Control Block to exclude certain files from the trigger.

Anointing the Sick
Anointing of the sick may take place wherever it is needed: at home, in the hospital, or before or after the worship service.
Depending on the wishes of the person being anointed, an anointing ceremony may involve only one officiant, or it might include several members of the congregation. Where members of the opposite sex are involved, it is mandatory that at least three people be present.
A brief prayer might precede the anointing, thanking God for his grace and love and for hearing the prayers of his people in their need.
The officiant should then lay his or her hands on the sick person’s head or shoulders, or simply hold the person’s hand, and pray for healing.
The sick person may then be anointed with oil (preferably olive oil) by dipping a finger or thumb in the oil and applying it to the person’s forehead while saying words to the effect of: “We anoint you for healing in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”
Sample prayer:
Our Father, we pray on behalf of [name of sick person] that you will in your mercy and power do what is right and good in his/her life. In the bond of the Holy Spirit, who ministers to us your love, and in union and communion with Jesus Christ, your beloved Son, we pray as one that [name of person being anointed] would be made whole now, as we know that he/she will be made whole in the life to come. We pray in Jesus’ name. Amen. |

Our van was broken into!
Yesterday, before playing our show in Milan we arrived back to our van to the horrible realization that we had been robbed. In a matter of minutes, thieves had made off with thousands of dollars worth of electronics and personal goods including passports, laptops, cash, clothing and items of sentimental value. I'm sure you can imagine our devastation having to let others down because of the actions of a few selfish people. Missing out on shows and being unable to cross borders for connecting flights home is the last thing that we would ever want to be facing, but unfortunately it is the position we are now in.
We hope that through your kindness we can recover some of the crippling losses we are facing and regain our footing to make it home.

Mesp1 acts as a master regulator of multipotent cardiovascular progenitor specification.
During embryonic development, multipotent cardiovascular progenitor cells are specified from early mesoderm. Using mouse ESCs in which gene expression can be temporally regulated, we have found that transient expression of Mesp1 dramatically accelerates and enhances multipotent cardiovascular progenitor specification through an intrinsic and cell autonomous mechanism. Genome-wide transcriptional analysis indicates that Mesp1 rapidly activates and represses a discrete set of genes, and chromatin immunoprecipitation shows that Mesp1 directly binds to regulatory DNA sequences located in the promoter of many key genes in the core cardiac transcriptional machinery, resulting in their rapid upregulation. Mesp1 also directly represses the expression of key genes regulating other early mesoderm and endoderm cell fates. Our results demonstrate that Mesp1 acts as a key regulatory switch during cardiovascular specification, residing at the top of the hierarchy of the gene network responsible for cardiovascular cell-fate determination. |
In a manner similar to personal computers and laptops, business enterprises increasingly rely on mobile and handheld devices. Indeed, the capabilities and uses of mobile devices have moved beyond voice communications and personal information management applications to a variety of communications- and business-related functions including email, browsing, instant messaging, enterprise applications, and video applications. For example, the functionality of many mobile devices have been extended to include cellular and wireless local area network (WLAN) communications interfaces, as well as virtual private network (VPN) and other client applications. Furthermore, mobile devices used in enterprises may also include enterprise applications used by employees in the field or otherwise.
Deployment, management and configuration of mobile and handheld devices in enterprise environments, however, present certain challenges. For example, the vast and constantly changing variety of mobile device types, functions and capabilities presents challenges to configuration, provisioning and troubleshooting. Moreover, enterprise mobile expenses are one of the fastest growing enterprise expenditures, and as such, enterprises are paying more attention to their bills from network service providers. |
Myocardial and skeletal muscle aging and changes in oxidative stress in relationship to rigorous exercise training.
Cardiac and skeletal muscle are very different functional tissues, and we would expect a variation in the ROS generation, in ageing and rigorous exercise-related in both tissues. We determined TBARS, total SOD, Cu, ZnSOD and MnSOD activities, and the patterns of SOD isoenzymes in skeletal muscle and heart of male Wistar rats, young and old, in rest and after rigorous exercise. There were no differences in the levels of lipoperoxidation in aged rest animals in both tissues, but the level was increased after exhaustion. The level of SOD activities was bigger in the heart than in skeletal muscle. Total SOD and Cu, ZnSOD activities were higher in old rest animals in the skeletal muscle than in young rest rats. This change did not occur in the heart. After rigorous exercise, the level of SOD activities was increased in young rats in both tissues. However, in old exhausted rats, the activities were only elevated in the heart. Different Cu, ZnSOD isoenzyme patterns showed in relation to tissues. In the skeletal muscle in old animals, the Cu, ZnSOD isoenzyme pattern was modified. The rigorous exercise did not change this pattern. The pattern of MnSOD isoenzyme was not varied in either tissue, age nor and exercise. |

Do you know why conduct through sized tunics plus very best improve all of gals? Initially, all these very best insure your girl's more affordable one half and also cling listed below your girl's backside. Hence, in case the backside on the women is definitely very compact and also very massive, a strong through sized top rated shows the be managed by either contour styles. Although the top part plus backside are usually not done significantly in the least, when in the example of a rectangle style women, a tunic handles this contour in addition. You can place in a belt to your rectangle figure to set-up a trick connected with an hourglass. For people with a strong hourglass find, every through sized top rated is appropriate, whether it's garnished and also very simple plus classic．. |
Ag2S atomic switch-based 'tug of war' for decision making.
For a computing process such as making a decision, a software controlled chip of several transistors is necessary. Inspired by how a single cell amoeba decides its movements, the theoretical 'tug of war' computing model was proposed but not yet implemented in an analogue device suitable for integrated circuits. Based on this model, we now developed a new electronic element for decision making processes, which will have no need for prior programming. The devices are based on the growth and shrinkage of Ag filaments in α-Ag2+δS gap-type atomic switches. Here we present the adapted device design and the new materials. We demonstrate the basic 'tug of war' operation by IV-measurements and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) observation. These devices could be the base for a CMOS-free new computer architecture. |
The Liberal government will not reform the federal electoral system, despite promising to do so when elected.
And depending on where your party politics lie, that decision has been called a betrayal, a cynical display of self-serving politics, and a lesson for voters to not believe anything Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says again.
But to Kelly Blidook, an associate professor in political science at Memorial University, the problem really isn't that the government abandoned its promise, it's that it made one in the first place.
We've created a system in politics where we want promises and we also sort of want to be able to call people liars. And I think we should accept that while promises are an important part of our democracy, we're a little too fixated on establishing promises and then measuring whether they're kept or not. I think that's a simplistic way of looking at how government works and how trust works. - Kelly Blidook
Blidook says everyone — from politicians to voters to the media have a role to play — in changing what he calls a 'culture of promises'.
"The world is a changing place, there is a lot of information that parties don't necessarily have as they're making those promises, and I think as they accumulate that information we should be open to the idea that they are going to have to potentially change the pledges they have made."
While loathe to let the prime minister off the hook, Blidook says trust in politicians and government could be built if the focus was less on what promises were made and kept, and more on dialogue, debate and policy outcomes. |
Q:
Batch variable name in another variable
Assume I have a folder that contains other folders that I don't necessarily know about:
|Folder
| |-- SubFolder1
| |-- SubFolder2
| |-- SubFolder3
I essentially want to map another location for the sub folders. So I create another batch file containing these sub folder names that can have another location set to them, e.g:
TYPE NUL > folders.cmd
FOR /D %%i IN (*) DO (@ECHO SET %%i=>>folders.cmd)
which produces:
SET SubFolder1=
SET SubFolder2=
SET SubFolder3=
Then if I was to open that file and set some values like so:
SET SubFolder1=C:\test1
SET SubFolder2=C:\test2
SET SubFolder3=C:\test3
How would I now access the variables/values in my batch file (especially when I may not know what they are).
I thought maybe I could do something like:
CALL folders.cmd
FOR /D %%i IN (*) DO (
@ECHO %%%i%%%
)
But this appears to be the incorrect way to do it.
A:
The concept you use in this question is called array. You may use the methods described at this post in order to access array elements. For example:
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
CALL folders.cmd
FOR /D %%i IN (*) DO (
ECHO !%%i!
)
... or:
CALL folders.cmd
FOR /D %%i IN (*) DO (
CALL ECHO %%%%i%%
)
EDIT: Output of CALL example added
C:\> dir /B
folders.cmd
SubFolder1
SubFolder2
SubFolder3
test.bat
C:\> type folders.cmd
SET SubFolder1=C:\test1
SET SubFolder2=C:\test2
SET SubFolder3=C:\test3
C:\> type test.bat
@echo off
setlocal
CALL folders.cmd
FOR /D %%i IN (*) DO (
CALL ECHO %%%%i%%
)
C:\> test.bat
C:\test1

Q:
Why won't upcast to concrete type of another common interface
Why can't you upcast to a different concrete type of another common interface. I've created this example in linqpad. Now I can understand if you had different properties between the two classes that an up cast would fail because it couldn't complete the object. But in this Scenario I don't see why the upcast would fail.
void Main()
{
ICommon test = new ConcreteA();
((ConcreteA)test).a.Dump();
// this errors with: Unable to cast object of type 'ConcreteA' to type 'ConcreteB'.
((ConcreteB)test).a.Dump();
}
public interface ICommon
{
string a {get; }
}
public class ConcreteA : ICommon
{
public string a {
get{ return "Concrete A"; }
}
}
public class ConcreteB : ICommon
{
public string a {
get{ return "Concrete B"; }
}
}
Shouldn't the compiler be able to treat this as if you were casting from an double to an int, if a double was too big for an int it would throw an exception but if the cast was possible the compiler would do it. Why doesn't the compiler try to load the ConcreteA as a ConcreteB and if there were extra properties in the ConcreteB that it couldn't figure out then it would throw.
A:
Since ConcreteA knows nothing about ConcreteB (in your case, because they may have different implementation for property a), I suggest you implement explicit operator for ConcreteB like this:
public class ConcreteA
{
/* rest of your code ... */
public static explicit operator ConcreteB(ConcreteA instance)
{
// implement converting from ConcreteA to ConcreteB
}
}

DEFINITION: "Cloud Computing" is a general term for anything that involves delivering hosted services over the Internet. The name "Cloud Computing" was inspired by the cloud symbol that's often used to represent the Internet in flow charts and diagrams. In this model customers pay subscription or usage fees to "lease" their application from the vendor. SaaS applications do not require the installation of any desktop software nor do they require any hardware investment by the customer.
Cloud computing for today's companies is equivalent to the electricity grid for companies a century ago.
Once companies no longer had to produce their own power they were able to focus more of their resources on running the business. The same goes for cloud computing…now everything they need can be bought and used via "the Cloud.
The Wall Street Journal: "Spending Soars on Internet's Plumbing""Behind the recovery in business spending is a surge in purchases of the computers that form the backbone of the Internet, as companies scramble to meet growing demand for video and other Web-based services." |

A practical guide to evaluating cardiovascular, renal, and pulmonary function in mice.
The development and widespread use of genetically altered mice to study the role of various proteins in biological control systems have led to a renewed interest in methodologies and approaches for evaluating physiological phenotypes. As a result, cross-disciplinary approaches have become essential for fully realizing the potential of these new and powerful animal models. The combination of classical physiological approaches and modern innovative technology has given rise to an impressive arsenal for evaluating the functional results of genetic manipulation in the mouse. This review attempts to summarize some of the techniques currently being used for measuring cardiovascular, renal, and pulmonary variables in the intact mouse, with specific attention to practical considerations useful for their successful implementation. |
Requirements of external Ca and Na for the electrical and mechanical responses to noradrenaline in the smooth muscle of guinea-pig vas deferens.
Noradrenaline (NA) evoked a contraction which consisted of two components, an initial one associated with only depolarization and a second one with spike discharges. Both contractions were abolished in a Ca-free solution leaving only small depolarization. In a Na-free solution, the initial contraction was increased in keeping with the short term depolarization, while the second contraction was abolished. It is suggested that NA initially causes Ca influx which secondarily increases Na permeability. |
Q:
What are the benefits of explicit type cast in C++?
What are the benefits of explicit type cast in C++ ?
A:
They're more specific than the full general C-style casts. You don't give up quite as much type safety and the compiler can still double check some aspects of them for you.
They're easy to grep for if you want to try clean up your code.
The syntax intentionally mimics a templated function call. As a a result, you can "extend" the language by defining your own casts (e.g., Boost's lexical_cast).

Q:
Override ActiveRecord::Base find method (to accept non-default id field as a search parameter)
I have followed this tutorial on how to accept not-only-numeric primary key id when creating instance of my ModelName in my Ruby on Rails application.
Everything is okay, but there is a paragraph:
Be aware that Product.find won’t work anymore, and other Rails helper that relies on id will stop functioning. If you really want that, you need to override more methods and this seems too much of a pain for me. So I’d highly recommend you to leave #id as is.
The question is: when I am trying to get instance of my model by using .find() method in my ModelNameController it doesn't work (I think that's because of .find() method's search parameters - it does find something by id field which is numeric)
I have this piece of code:
def set_model_name
@model_name = ModelName.find(params[:hashid])
end
Where :hashid is a parameter that is a string (I'd like to use a string instead of a number)
How could I solve my problem?
One of the solutions would be overriding ActiveRecord::Base's .find() method.
Thanks in advance!
A:
You do not need to override the default behaviour of find. Instead, you can use the find_by method:
def set_model_name
@model_name = ModelName.find_by(hashid: params[:hashid])
end

It’s an old and familiar saying: “If you lie down with dogs, you’ll wake up with fleas.”
Not to mention:
Poisoned, fake-brand THC vapes killing our kids via the vaping lung illness outbreak of last summer. (Oh. You missed that foreign-sourced public health crisis?) Plus floods of counterfeit nicotine e-cigarette brands habitualizing high-schoolers and undermining heavy-handed efforts at home to keep the products away from kids.
Thousands of dangerous, fraudulent, mis- and wrongly-labeled, and even banned products swamping the world’s largest retail platform – and driven to the top of listings, claiming a coveted but misleading “Amazon Choice,” through lies, bogus sales and bribes.
Decades of systematic cheating on trade agreements hollowing out America’s industrial base.
Blatant and ubiquitous identity theft, cyberfraud and cyberattacks – including, ironically, unrelenting unleashing of computer “viruses.”
Sponsorship of rogue nations rushing headlong to develop nukes that can take out Los Angeles.
Of course, pandemics that, in flea-like fashion, rapidly infest the entire globe.
And resulting record stock-market crashes, free falls in energy and other commodity markets, plummeting bond yields, and maybe, a recession that could undo the unparalleled job gains of the last few years.
Hey, Wall Street! Ya maybe paying attention yet?
One hates to say “We told you so.” But we told you so: that there was a plethora of grounds beyond illegal trade practices not to do business with China.
And with the coronavirus and its far-reaching effects across our public health, society and now economy, we’ve just been reminded of another reason – one bringing new meaning to the term “economic contagion.”
By the way – before we get started on empty charges of “racism,” the opening aphorism does not imply in any way that Chinese people are “dogs.”
Although to say that their government and business leadership are such would be to insult every canine species.
What might have been your first hint that China’s tyrants are not reliable, benign and mutually beneficial business partners?
The tanks running down protesting students even as their dispatchers were seeking to normalize relations and gain access to our markets?
Demonstrations of benevolence in blowing up churches, enslaving pastors, harvesting religious dissidents’ organs, imprisoning ethnic minorities in concentration camps and deploying expropriated technology to create the world’s most pervasive surveillance state?
The massive and abiding competitive advantage gained by forcing laborers to toil hundreds of hours of overtime for months on end – under constant watch (even in the toilet) and in unsafe, unsanitary working and living conditions?
Rampant looting and forced surrender of prized intellectual property as a price of doing business?
Previous scandals involving tainted crayons, toys, lumber, drywall and personal care products?
The lack of financial safeguards that one day could catch up the entire world in the collapse of a Potemkin village economic system?
Or how about earlier global epidemics such as SARS and other various forms of flu that leaked into the world from a medieval public health infrastructure and unconstrained and disgusting dietary habits – specifically, unregulated meat markets peddling civet cats, pangolins and the like?
However serious it may turn out to be, this flareup has given all of us, including Wall Street, a serious and painful wake-up call: that coronavirus and the resulting panics are what happens when a nation – seemingly inextricably – links its economy and entire way of life to a country whose system is completely inimical.
But also an opportunity to prove the coupling is extricable after all – by pressing, Hillary Clinton-style, the famous “reset” button, this time with China. Perhaps spelled right (however it’s rendered in Mandarin). And policy-wise, in an opposite, decidedly less accommodative direction.
Now that this frightening outbreak has captured our collective consciousness, the president should seize the opportunity to take his tough posture vis-à-vis the Chinese to a whole new level – and announce that for the sake of our economic wellbeing, national security, public health and consumer safety, America is indeed going to recast our relationship.
That we will progressively wean ourselves off the Middle Kingdom’s brutal, criminal dictatorship; its crooked, immoral, hazardous and larcenous business activities; its unhygienic practices; and its antagonistic rhetoric and actions.
That, until and unless China cleans up its act, we will promote and even mandate the shift of business and commerce to safer, saner, more reliable, less hostile and most important, more humane locations – including and especially the good old US of A.
In short, that America is going to stop lying down with depraved, despotic dogs and waking up fleeced — in every sense.

Barbet of Liège ( Luikse Barbet )
The Barbet of Liége – also known by the names: Barbet Liègeois, Lütticher Barbet, Barbet in Liegi, Льежский барбет – is a breeding variety in the Liege region of Belgium since the 1900s, and is informed as a cross from French Owl with other short-billed pigeons. The varieties incorporated into this Owl pigeons type, have a pure appearance of owl, with tie hairs on the front neck, short beak, and slightly upright posture. It is large for owl groups. |
How It Is To Be John
Project Description
Actually, these days it’s really difficult to be me. Because I am being something that I don’t want to be in order to pay the bills.
If I’m being me than I’d be doing scientific research every single day. Then I wouldn’t be doing street performance. I would invent a washing machine that can dry the clothes within seconds after washing them. And use technologies from the pyramids of Bosnia to trick seeds to grow in a different month than they’re supposed to.
It would not be about making money but instead I would like to live in a society where we are working for the benefit of mankind rather than for the benefit of ourselves. As long as we have money existent, we’re working for the benefit of ourselves, which defeats the object of humanity. Which is to work together.
How can we work together if we’re all fighting for our survival?

Kill-A-Watt promotes efficiency
Residents of University Village are getting the opportunity to monitor and reduce their carbon footprints.
A pilot program named Kill-A-Watt is coming to UM. Coupled with GreenU initiatives, it will provide students living at the UV with incentives to monitor their energy use and establish more energy-efficient lifestyles.
Senior Sean Ahearn, vice president of Kill-A-Watt, is currently working with Ian McKeown, GreenU sustainability coordinator, to facilitate the program.
Every month, UV residents who participate in the Kill-A-Watt competition will receive a free energy statement and they will be provided with tips on how to save energy, which in turn will lower their bill.
“The building that saves the most will get a pizza party,” Ahearn said. “Then individuals from that building will get a chance to receive other great prizes.”
The Kill-A-Watt Program can already be found at various educational institutions in the state of Florida, including Florida International University and University of Central Florida. Both schools have reportedly saved thousands of dollars on their energy bills each semester. The program is looking to expand onto other campuses, including the University of Florida.
“We’re looking to get this energy program started this semester,” McKeown said.
The launch date has yet to be determined, but many students living in the UV are excited about the prospects of reducing their carbon footprints.
“Saving energy is important to me and I think it’s great that so many people on campus care,” said junior Arthur Affleck, a UV resident.

Evangelism 'must not be forced on others', says Archbishop of Canterbury
Christian witness "must be both confident and humble", the Archbishop of Canterbury has said in an Easter letter to churches around the world.
Archbishop Justin Welby said that although it was a Christian duty to share the faith, it was important that Christians season their message with "gentleness and respect" and not force their beliefs onto others.
"Our proclamation of the hope which is ours in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ must be both confident and humble," he wrote.
"In our complex and plural world our evangelism must not be forced on others, but as followers of Christ we have a duty to bear witness to our faith: to speak of hope for the world in the Resurrection of Christ, a message seasoned with gentleness and respect.
"Our actions of love, compassion, respect and gentleness confirm that the message we share is indeed good news."
He reflected on the need for Christians to bring a message of hope to communities as people around the world continue to suffer as a result of environmental damage, war, terrorism, and political and economic instability.
In addition, he warned of the "twin threats of extremism and apathy".
"Our world is in desperate need of hope. As Christians we have a message of sure and certain hope to proclaim," he wrote.
The call for humility echoes a recent appeal made by the Archbishop specifically to British Christians to be sensitive to their country's colonial past and how it might affect their witness in communities that were part of the Empire.
Delivering the Deo Gloria Trust lecture, Archbishop Welby said it was important that Christians engage in dialogue rather than monologue, and recognise the positive contributions of people who belong to different faiths.
"How are British Christians heard when we talk of the claims of Christ by diaspora communities who have experienced abuse and exploitation by an empire that has seemed to hold the Christian story at the heart of its project?" he said.
He added: "Let us never be guilty of demeaning the light that others have, just show them something of the light you know.
"Let's tell people about Jesus and witness to what he has done for us, without feeling the need to presume to tell others what is wrong with their faith." |

Q:
How to open wikipedia home page with already entered a specific test in the search bar
I'm opening this wikipedia page
by pushing a button and i'm using this code to do it
let urlW = URL(string: "https://www.wikipedia.org")
let svm = SFSafariViewController.init(url: urlW!)
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(svm, animated: true)
what i would like to know if is possibile to open the same page with already entered a specific text in the search bar, for example "colosseum" or something like that; how can i do?
A:
Quick Answer: Use the URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search={search term}
If you goto the website and do a basic search for something you will normally end up at a URL like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colosseum
If you mispell the search term and the website does not get a good match, you will get a URL like https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=coloesumn
If I use this URL for easy searches, such as tank
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=tank
I get redirected to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank
So in short you should be fine to use the following URL
Use the URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search={search term}

There are numerous myths regarding the origin of Shivaratri. Most of the stories of Shivratri can be traced to the Puranas. A few important legends are detailed below. It must be noted that almost all the myths happened during night and this is one of the reason for celebrating Shivaratri during night.
Myth of Shivratri based on Vishnu and Brahma searching for the origin of Linga
Lord Vishnu and Brahma wanted to know who was superior and this led to a fight. Lord Shiva intervened and said whoever can find out the origin or end of Shivling is superior. Lord Shiva appeared before them in the form of a huge pillar of fire. Lord Vishnu went down searching and Brahma went up searching. Both traveled and traveled but never met the beginning or end.
After the futile search, Lord Vishnu and Brahma prayed to Shiva and appeared before them in the form of Jyotirlinga and this day of the appearance of Lord Shiva is celebrated as Shivratri.
The Story of Shivaratri based on Samudra Manthan
This is a famous legend on Shivaratri and happened during the churning of ocean by Devas and Asuras to get ‘Amrit.’ While churning the ocean, highly toxic poison came out and Lord Vishnu asked the ‘devas’ and ‘asuras’ to approach Lord Shiva. He agreed immediately to help them and drank the poison. In order the poison to have no effect, Lord Shiva should not sleep. So the ‘devas’ and ‘asuras’ kept praying the whole night. Pleased with the devotion Lord Shiva said ‘whoever worships me on this day will get their wishes fulfilled.’
The story of Mahashivratri and the fall of ketaki flower
This myth is similar to the appearance of the Jyotirlinga legend. Brahma went up searching for the end of the Jyotirlinga and Vishnu went down. Brahma after traveling for a while saw a ketaki flower (screw pine) dangling down. He stopped his search and took the flower and returned to Lord Shiva. Vishnu too came back soon and expressed his inability to find the beginning. But Brahma said he found the ketaki flower atop the Jyotirlinga and ketki supported it. Lord Shiva became furious and cursed ketki flower that it will not be offered in worship.
The story of Shivratri based on hunter unknowingly dropping Bilva leaves on Lingam
There once lived a tribal hunter who was a Shiva devotee. One day he lost his way while hunting and was trapped in the forest at night. Soon wild animals started to gather around him and he climbed a Bel or Bilva tree. In order to keep himself awake, he started plucking Bilva leaves and dropped it down repeating ‘Om Namah Shivaya.’ In the morning, he discovered that he had been dropping the leaves on a Shivling. And the word spread that he was saved by Lord Shiva. People started celebrating the day as Shivratri. The story is mentioned in Mahabharata by Bhismha while on the bed of arrows. The hunter was born as King Chitra bhanu who could remember his previous births. And he discussed the importance of Shivaratri with a sage.
Apart from these myths, it is said that the reunion of Lord Shiva and Parvati happened on the Shivratri day. Another legend states that Lord Shiva performed the Taandava on this day. |
Q:
using qt : How To Build a Gui OnTop Of a Console Application?
i have a console application that generated from bison (a parser) and i want to build a simple gui for it
so i can send input from this gui to the console and get output from the console into the gui .
i tried to do that using java process class but it doesnt work for me , please help me to do that
using qt .
A:
It depends on the complexity of the data you want to feed in/out of your console application.
Low complexity
Use some command switches that you pass from your Qt GUI to your console application. Look at the QProcess class documentation.
High complexity
I would go with an RPC-like solution. Look at the QtDBus documentation (Linux/Unix only).
Note: I made the assumption that you want to keep your generated bison parser apart from your Qt GUI (in case you need the regenerate it again).

Tears and Eyewear in Forensic Investigation-A Review.
Body fluid analysis has played a crucial role in ascertaining various characteristics and has greatly aided in reconstructing events during crime scene investigation. It is often presumed that crimes that involve violence and mental disturbances such as murder or sexual assault provide good sources of body fluids such as blood, saliva, semen, vaginal secretions, urine and tears. Tears are secreted in response to any emotional or stressful situations and may be found deposited on surfaces such as bedding, tissue paper or cloth. In the absence of the commonly noted body fluids such as blood or saliva, tears can play an important role that can lead to personal identification by examining the biochemistry and molecular aspects to obtain a full DNA profile. Additionally, identification of an individual may be done by carefully observing certain unique eye characteristics such as heterochromia which is highly individualistic. Characteristics of eyewear such as spectacles and contact lenses have unique properties and prescription criteria for correcting an individual's eyesight that can provide vital clues in understanding the visual ability of an individual. In crime scene investigation, the presence or absence of eyewear provides immense evidentiary value that has greatly aided in solving cases such as Janet Abaroa's Murder. This paper provides a systematic review of the possibility of using tears and eyewear for the purpose of forensic investigation and to statistically support the inferences with prescription databases which may be initiated across different populations. Forensic Optometry is yet to get streamlined along with the routinely followed investigative techniques and scientifically explored although no standard protocols exist to analyse eyewear. The use of behavioural optometry is gaining attention in the context of driving laws of different countries and is a simple but powerful indicator of abnormal behaviour. It is speculated that the last seen image referred to as an 'Optogram' of an individual may be captured in the retina since our eyes functions like a camera. Although this claim is considerably unexplored, it is quite possible that the last seen image of a criminal, objects or a place may be noted that can positively help in linking individuals at the scene of crime or identify the primary crime location. In this review, the potential for new insights into the analysis of tears, eye and eyewear characteristics have been explored. |
Testing for beneficial reversal of dominance during salinity shifts in the invasive copepod Eurytemora affinis, and implications for the maintenance of genetic variation.
Maintenance of genetic variation at loci under selection has profound implications for adaptation under environmental change. In temporally and spatially varying habitats, non-neutral polymorphism could be maintained by heterozygote advantage across environments (marginal overdominance), which could be greatly increased by beneficial reversal of dominance across conditions. We tested for reversal of dominance and marginal overdominance in salinity tolerance in the saltwater-to-freshwater invading copepod Eurytemora affinis. We compared survival of F1 offspring generated by crossing saline and freshwater inbred lines (between-salinity F1 crosses) relative to within-salinity F1 crosses, across three salinities. We found evidence for both beneficial reversal of dominance and marginal overdominance in salinity tolerance. In support of reversal of dominance, survival of between-salinity F1 crosses was not different from that of freshwater F1 crosses under freshwater conditions and saltwater F1 crosses under saltwater conditions. In support of marginal overdominance, between-salinity F1 crosses exhibited significantly higher survival across salinities relative to both freshwater and saltwater F1 crosses. Our study provides a rare empirical example of complete beneficial reversal of dominance associated with environmental change. This mechanism might be crucial for maintaining genetic variation in salinity tolerance in E. affinis populations, allowing rapid adaptation to salinity changes during habitat invasions. |
Anesthetic considerations for patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.
Once a technique used primarily for gynecologic surgery, laparoscopy is becoming increasingly popular for the performance of abdominal procedures such as cholecystectomy, bowel resection, splenectomy, adrenalectomy, nephrectomy and inguinal hernia repair. Laparoscopy results in a shorter postoperative hospital stay, less time between surgery and the resumption of full activity, reduced hospital costs, and an earlier return to the work force. By avoiding a large abdominal incision, laparoscopic surgery results in improved cosmetic results and a reduced incidence of postoperative intraabdominal adhesions. Compared to open procedures, postoperative pain is generally considered less after laparoscopic surgery. Finally, respiratory function is less compromising following Iaparoscopic compared to open surgical procedures. |
