Q:
How do I add an extra attribute in my input for Django forms?
{{ theform.address }}
{{ theform.phone }}
This is what I do in my templates.
However, what if I want to add placeholder="Username" to the input text field? (Custom attribute)
<input type="text" name="address" id="id_address" placeholder="username"/>
A:
Add the attrs keyword argument to your field constructor's widget, and include write your attribute in there:
address = forms.TextField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'username'}))
If you want to see it in action, take a look at django-registration's forms.py.
A:
Alternatively, you can use the http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-widget-tweaks app:
{% load widget_tweaks %}
...
{{ theform.address|attr:"placeholder:username" }}

Permitless carry in Oregon?
I think now is the time for us to push for this. Oregon is already a "shall issue" state. Anyone who applies who is not prohibited from owning a gun is usually given their permit. But now that background checks are required on all purchases, wouldn't it be safe to say that anyone who has a gun should theoretically be legally allowed to own it? And therefore, if they have already passed a background check to purchase it, why should they have to go through ANOTHER background check and pay however much it is for the permit?
The liberals always talk about the need for "compromise" on gun laws. Yet their version of "compromise" usually consists of them taking and taking, and not giving anything in return. It's time to demand TRUE compromise and say that since you have your "universal" background checks, there's no need for a permit process to carry concealed.
You are speaking about common sense and true compromise, neither of which the ruling party in our state cares about. They don't actually want to make firearms ownership and possession easier and more affordable, their bigotry demands the opposite.
You could do lots of things that would be easier to pass than permitless carry. Opening up out of state permits to those not in neighboring states (a truly weird rule), recognizing other state's permits, and preemption. |

River Broadwater
The River Broadwater is a tributary of the River Loddon at Swallowfield, Berkshire.
It is formed by the Rivers Blackwater and Whitewater, at their confluence near Thatcher's Ford at the boundary between Bramshill and Swallowfield parishes. The river flows in a north-westerly direction for approximately one and a half miles, until it joins the River Loddon to the north of the village of Swallowfield.

Q:
Can I generate pure sine wave with just a clock and amplifier?
I see pure sine wave DC to AC inverters cost a lot more than the modified sine wave ones due to added complexity.
Can't we just take a DC source, feed it into a quartz clock to create a sine wave, then amplify it up in order to create a pure sine wave? If so, why do they even bother creating these modified sine wave inverters as should a simple clock + amplifier be pretty cheap?
A:
Yes, you could in theory start with a sine signal and amplify it to make a inverter. The result would be rather inefficient though. The amplifier has to work with lots of signals, whereas you know exactly the signal you want. The general amplifier approach ignores this and therefore doesn't avail itself of optimizations that would not be valid for amplifying general signals.
If you used a efficient class D amplifier, then the result might not be too bad. One way of looking at a sine wave inverter is as a class D amplifier, except that it also synthesizes the signal directly instead of having to faithfully follow some analog input signal.
One important optimization that the general amplifier approach is missing is that distortion can be much higher for a inverter. A few percent is a lot for a amplifier, but not much at all for a power cycle.
Also look at what amplifiers cost that can put out the voltage and power you want a inverter to put out.

Squamous cell carcinoma of the pancreas with cystic degeneration.
Most nonendocrine pancreatic neoplasms are adenocarcinomas of ductal cell or acinar origin. Primary carcinomas of the pancreas with squamous differentiation are rare enough to warrant a search for other primary tumors. In the past few decades, well-documented individual reports and large series reviews support the view that these squamous neoplasms are indeed of pancreatic origin and not uncommonly exhibit cystic degeneration. Late manifestation and unfavorable prognosis seem to be uniform features. We report a case with many of these features. |
Q:
Jackson scala module: deserialize case object enumeration
I am using Jackson scala module and I need to serialize/deserialize case object enumerations. The serialization works fine, but when deserializing back the values I get a com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidDefinitionException. There is a way to make it work? I would like to avoid using "classic" scala enumerations, since I would lose the ability to define enumeration hierarchies.
Code used for the tests:
import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonValue
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.{DeserializationFeature, ObjectMapper}
import com.fasterxml.jackson.module.scala.DefaultScalaModule
import com.fasterxml.jackson.module.scala.experimental.ScalaObjectMapper
sealed trait Operations { @JsonValue def jsonValue: String }
case object Foo extends Operations { override def jsonValue: String = "Foo" }
case object Bar extends Operations { override def jsonValue: String = "Bar" }
sealed trait RichOperations extends Operations
case object Baz extends RichOperations { override def jsonValue: String = "Baz" }
object JsonUtils extends App {
val jsonMapper = new ObjectMapper() with ScalaObjectMapper
jsonMapper.registerModule(DefaultScalaModule)
.configure(DeserializationFeature.FAIL_ON_UNKNOWN_PROPERTIES, false)
def toJson(value: Any): String = jsonMapper.writeValueAsString(value)
def fromJson[T: Manifest](json: String): T = jsonMapper.readValue[T](json)
println(toJson(Foo)) // "Foo"
println(toJson(Bar)) // "Bar"
println(toJson(Baz)) // "Baz"
println(fromJson[Operations](toJson(Foo))) // throws InvalidDefinitionException
println(fromJson[Operations](toJson(Bar)))
println(fromJson[RichOperations](toJson(Baz)))
}
A:
I solved the problem defining custom deserializers.
import com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParser
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.{DeserializationContext, JsonDeserializer}
class OperationsDeserializer extends JsonDeserializer[Operations] {
override def deserialize(p: JsonParser, ctxt: DeserializationContext): Operations = {
p.getValueAsString match {
case Foo.jsonValue => Foo
case Bar.jsonValue => Bar
case value => throw new IllegalArgumentException(s"Undefined deserializer for value: $value")
}
}
}
class RichOperationsDeserializer extends JsonDeserializer[Operations] {
override def deserialize(p: JsonParser, ctxt: DeserializationContext): Operations = {
p.getValueAsString match {
case Foo.jsonValue => Foo
case Bar.jsonValue => Bar
case Baz.jsonValue => Baz
case value => throw new IllegalArgumentException(s"Undefined deserializer for value: $value")
}
}
}
Moreover, since stable identifiers are required in match/case, I changed jsonValue from def to val: this unfortunately requires the declaration of @JsonValue annotation in each case object enumeration.
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonDeserialize
@JsonDeserialize(using = classOf[OperationsDeserializer])
sealed trait Operations { val jsonValue: String }
case object Foo extends Operations { @JsonValue override val jsonValue: String = "Foo" }
case object Bar extends Operations { @JsonValue override val jsonValue: String = "Bar" }
@JsonDeserialize(using = classOf[RichOperationsDeserializer])
sealed trait RichOperations extends Operations
case object Baz extends RichOperations { @JsonValue override val jsonValue: String = "Baz" }

Clean OS reinstalls with propellor - zdw
http://joeyh.name/blog/entry/clean_OS_reinstalls_with_propellor/
======
andrewaylett
I'm always very impressed with Joey's work. I'm a heavy user of git-annex. My
concern with Propeller is there's too much fragmentation around configuration
management tools: this is something that only Propeller can do, and the
impression I get is that most other projects support Chef or Puppet, while I'm
currently using Salt, because I like its pattern of declaring the desired
state of a system (and I picked it before Joey released Propeller).
It seems all to easy to jump on one technology stack, gain its improvements,
but find that there's a whole lot of nice things you've locked yourself out
of, because you can't really use more than one tool at once. And because
implementation language seems to be a core feature, I'm not sure reusing
modules is a feasible.
I don't have any suggestions, though :(.
~~~
joeyh
Well, I suppose it's perfectly valid to write a propellor property
puppetClient PuppetConfig :: Property
So if propellor's capabilities for (re)installing a system are why you want to
use it, it can be composed with other configuration management tools this way.
Of course, I wrote propellor because I've read enough puppet and chef and
ansible and salt documentation that I knew it would be easier to write my own
tool that I fully understood and worked just the way I wanted, rather than
learning those rest well enough to pick one, and then mangle it to behave the
way I wanted. Quite aware that only solves the problem for me. ;)

So, what is the use case for this ability? The first thing that occurs to me
is running an OS on a VPS provider that they don't natively support (e.g.
Gentoo on DigitalOcean.) But since VPS providers are generally using PV Xen
instances, the kernel is controlled from outside--so you can't just overwrite
the one in the rootfs and update grub and call it a day.
The current solution involves leaving the old OS around, making the new OS a
squashfs image on disk, and then setting up the old OS to kexec the new one
early on in each boot cycle. It's be cool, though, if you could figure out a
way with Propellor to have the new OS live in the rootfs, in harmony with the
most minimal fragments of the old OS necessary to kexec.

Q:
jQuery map breaking up a plain string and adding when not needed
I am using the following:
var items = $.map(json.errors, function (error) {
return error + '</br>';
}).join('');
json.errors can be IEnumerable<string> or just string.
When json.errors is IEnumerable then items is populated with text with a <br> between each error message. However when json.errors is a string then items is populated with the error string with a <br> after every character of the string.
Is there some way that I could fix the problem for when json.errors is just a plain string?
A:
As your current code adds a <br/> after every string, and not just between strings, this would be equivalent:
if (typeof json.errors === "string" ) {
json.errors = [ json.errors ] ;
}
// continue as before

Q:
Trouble ramping up stepper motor
I am using a bipolar stepper motor with Fs = 238Hz, I want to ramp it up above its Fs, for this purpose I am stepping it up with an interval of 100ms but as soon as the motor reaches 240Hz it starts vibrating on its place and the motor stops, what am I doing wrong here? I am following TI's application note here.
http://www.ti.com/lit/an/slyt482/slyt482.pdf
A:
The relatively high inductance of stepper motor windings means that as you increase the step speed for a given supply voltage, the current (and hence torque) produced falls off dramatically. Basically what you've done is step it at such a high frequency that the current in the winding cannot build to a point where enough torque is produced to overcome the magnetic detent force.
To fix this you need to increase the supply voltage to the motor when it is operating at the higher speeds.
Also note that the motor will become extremely inefficient at high speeds due to the large hysteresis/eddy current losses in the iron core from the high switching speeds. It is probably much better to either use a gearbox or some other type of motor if you want to run it above Fs.

Most smart dogs bark at the back door when they need letting in.
Others push their nose against the side of a partially closed door, and force it open.
But the IQ of this pooch is much higher - he is capable of jumping up onto a handle and opening a door with his paws, just like a human would.
Patient: The pooch waits to be let in before deciding that no one is around to open the door for him
Captured on camera in London is the moment an Akita showcases his ability to act like a person when he finds himself locked outside.
Patient to begin with, the pooch waits to be let in before deciding that no one is around to open the door for him.
Taking matters into his own hands, he jumps up against the door and rests his front paws on the handle.
He then pauses momentarily to get his balance before applying some pressure and forcing the handle downwards.
The dog jumps up and rests his front paws on the handle before pushing down to open the door
At the same time the dog leans forward slightly and the door begins to open.
He then pulls it back with his right paw while peering in through the gap, before jumping to the ground and walking inside.
The video concludes with the pooch checking out his food bowl as he enters the house.
The Akita is a powerful and dominant breed of dog that originates from the mountainous northern regions of Japan. |
Q:
If I make a simple gui for my python script, would it affect its efficiency?
Hi I want to make a web crawler that checks URL for data, If i make a simple Gui that would make the script easier to look for variables in that data, Would adding code for the gui make my web crawler less efficient ?
I need the crawler to be as efficient as possible, to be able to process data as fast as possible. Would making a gui for this Python script, hinder the performance of the web crawler ?
A:
As long as you clearly separate your GUI logic from your processing logic, it shouldn't. As is the case with all optimization though, the best approach is to make the thing work first, then profile and optimize if it isn't performing fast enough for you.
I would suggest you first create your web crawler and forget the GUI. Profile and optimize it if you think it's too slow. Build it with the goal of it being an importable library. Once that works from the command line, then create your GUI front-end and bind your web crawling library functions and classes to the buttons and fields in your GUI. That clear separation should ensure that the GUI logic doesn't interfere with the performance of the web crawling. In particular, try to avoid updating the GUI with status information in the middle of the web crawling.

Giant Foam Fist Koozie Strikes Fear Into Lukewarm Drinks
Andrew Liszewski
You might think the koozie you’ve got wrapped around your can is doing a great job at keeping your drink cold. But a quarter inch of neoprene can’t compare to how well this gigantic novelty foam fist would insulate your cold beer.
It suspiciously looks like some company bought up all those giant foam Hulk fists from a few years ago and painted them to look like the calmer version of Bruce Banner. But instead of smashing sound effects, these $US20 koozie fists only include a hole for inserting a can, and a hole for inserting your own hand. Insulating them both and making you look like some kind of bizarre human-hulk hybrid trying to beat the heat. [Gadgets and Gear via Gear Diary] |
I am asking myself already my whole life what is the purpose of life. The only answer that came to my mind at that time, was that we are here, as an individual just to pass down our genes, and help the reproduction cycle, and then we take care of the offspring, and then we die.
Now, what will happen after my ''soul'' leaves my terrestral body? Some say that there is a higher consciousness in us, and that this mind doesn't need any terrestral supplies of any kind. That this is the real us. Eh, honestly I don't know what to believe, I wish that there was a next life for me, like a next chance to make everything better in my next life. So I partly believe in reincarnation, just want to go back to my human form. I also believe that there are some souls still wandering around, because something emotionally very strong is holding them back here, and they can't join into the endless world of universe. In the end I think that everyone after they die, join the afterworld they believed in. For example, a Christian believes that he will either end up in Heaven or Hell, now that he died he joined one of this two options, this will all depend on how he will look back at his terrestral life, if what he did was good or bad. Someone else believes in reincarnation, and will probably get reincarnated, as this is probably one of the last thoughts that will remain in his mind. Everyone will go there were they believe that they will go to, but only in their own mind, their own paradise, their own imagination that has formed their afterworld. It all just depends on how an individual percieves this life and this world or universe. |
An air-powered tube system generally contains different tube joints for different purposes. For example, a volume control valve is to control air volume in a tube system. An air sprayer is to blow off debris and dusts to maintain a system. A T-tube is to dispense airflow in a tube system. Conventional tube joints have only one or two of these functions. Accordingly, to achieve all the functions, an air-powered tube system has to include many tube joints. However, more tube joints may cause more air leak. The working efficiency and power produced by an air power tube system may decrease caused by air leak. Many tube joints also occupy much space and make a system difficult to manage. Many tube joints also increase the weight of a powered tube system such as an air-powered tool. An over-weighted air-powered tool is inconvenient to for a user to use it.
One of the conventional arrangements of an air-powered tube system used in an air-powered tool is that a T-tube connected with an air power source with its input end and connected with the air-powered tool with a first output end and connected with a air sprayer with a second output end. Thereby, the airflow can communicate to both the air-powered tool and the air sprayer from the air power source. However, the air sprayer is not used frequently. It's used only when the debris produced by the air-powered machine need to be cleaned. Most of the time the air sprayer is placed on a working platform. The air supply to the air-powered machine may be influenced by the branch connection to the air sprayer because the airflow supplied from the air power source is divided to two portions. Besides, this arrangement contains many tubes. When a user uses the air-powered machine such as an air-powered polishing machine, the tube connected to the sprayer will disturb him. This situation may cause harm to the user for example the tubes trip him. Another arrangement is to replace an air-powered machine and an air sprayer once at a time with single tube. This will waste a lot of time in changing the two devices. Therefore a multifunction tube joint that can be used as a volume control valve, air sprayer or/and a T-tube is needed. |

Many on-line service providers seek to provide users with a feature by which the users can place telephone calls from their computer devices, using the computer devices as the equivalent of telephone handsets. Rather than supporting this pc-to-phone functionality directly, an on-line service provider may instead rely on an outside vendor (i.e., a PBTSP) to support this service.
In one known implementation, all packet-based telephony calls initiated by users of an on-line service provider are automatically routed, by client software, directly to an outside PBTSP selected by the service provider. In essence, the on-line service provider represents a referral service for the outside vendor, referring all its users desiring packet-based telephony service to the outside vendor. This implementation suffers from certain disadvantages.
One disadvantage is that users are not provided input into the selection of their PBTSP. Thus, while other available PBTSPs may provide superior service, offer better pricing, etc., the users must nonetheless employ the outside vendor selected by the service provider, or forego the packet-based telephony service.
Another disadvantage relates to the relative inability of the on-line service provider to manage or control the telephony service provided to its users by the outside vendor. This can be particularly problematic where the outside vendor fails to provide users with an appropriate level of service, which may reflect poorly on the referring service provider, or where a contractual relationship between the service provider and the outside vendor terminates.
In view of the above, the inventors have recognized a need for a system which allows service providers to more effectively manage packet-based telephony services provided to their users by outside vendors, and a system which allows users to choose from among multiple PBTSPs. |

Q:
Angular2 restrict all routes
Helloo,
I have created a guard:
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Router, CanActivate } from '@angular/router';
@Injectable()
export class AuthGuard implements CanActivate {
constructor(private router: Router) {
}
canActivate() {
if (localStorage.getItem('currentUser')) {
// logged in so return true
return true;
}
// not logged in so redirect to login page
this.router.navigate(['/login']);
return false;
}
}
and have multiple modules with multiple routes inside them. How do I easily restrict every route in my app with this guard?
Best regards
A:
Setup an empty route with guard, and make the rest of your routes children of that one:
RouterModule.forRoot([
{ path: '', canActivate: [AuthGuard], children: [...restOfYourRoutes] }])
A:
You can use componentless routes
{ path: '', canActivate: [MyGuard], children: [
{path: 'x1', ...},
{path: 'x2', ...},
MyGuard will be applied to all child routes.

A Definitive Ranking of All the Nut Butters Available at Trader Joe’s—and How to Use Them
In a store that has fewer square feet than most supermarkets and even some bodegas, Trader Joe’s allots four shelves (sometimes five) to all of their nut butters, cookie butters, and other spreadables for sandwiches, toast, and more. That means, it’s safe to assume, they have a lot of confidence in their wide assortment of options. We decided to taste each one and find the butters that are worthy of your money.
Peanut butter is most prolific among the nut butter options. TJ’s has nine unique kinds—two different lines with salted and unsalted crunchy, and salted and unsalted creamy. A ninth option is a no-stir peanut butter.
One group of four peanut butters is made with Valencia peanuts, a type that is slightly sweeter than runner peanuts, which are grown primarily for the production of peanut butter. These are also the brand’s organic options. The second, non-organic group features unblanched peanuts, which is actually a prized commodity among peanut butter devotees. Unblanched peanuts retain the paper-thin skin, which adds deep body and flavor to the spread when they’re ground up with the legumes. Mixed in the remaining eight are an assortment of almond butters, one cashew butter, and one “mixed nut butter,” which you’ll read more about shortly.
We tasted each one after stirring to thoroughly combine the separated oil and solids. We ranked on overall flavor, texture, salt level, and versatility. These were our favorites:
Best Overall
Creamy Almond Butter No Salt
The fact that an almond butter bested nine peanut butters for the best nut butter from Trader Joe’s speaks volumes about this spread’s flavor. Almond butter can be too “green,” or too tart, if the nuts aren’t perfectly roasted before grinding. We like a bit of that flavor in the store’s Raw Almond Butter options, but the best we had was their no-salt traditional variety.
Why unsalted? Salt typically helps hide any bitter notes from nuts and seeds, but this almond butter was perfectly balanced without it. In fact, we thought the salted version of this very almond butter was too salty.
Best for Sandwiches
Organic Creamy Salted Peanut Butter
Salted nut butters better balance the sweet fruit tang of jams and preserves, and the slightly sweeter peanuts elevate this peanut butter’s overall flavor profile. If you’re planning to make a few PB&Js, this is the nut butter to grab.
Are you Team Crunchy? The Trader Joe’s Organic Crunchy Unsalted Peanut Butter is excellent. The only reason we didn’t rate it ahead of the creamy version is because the peanut pieces are a bit chewy, almost waxy. It’s still plenty pleasant to eat, but the texture of the creamy kind is superior.
Best for Sauces
Raw Almond Butter Creamy
For Thai curries, satay dips, even hummus, this all-purpose almond butter is the go-to option in our books. Raw almond butter isn’t quite as deeply flavored as toasted and processed almond butter, and that comes in handy here. The true essence of the nut shines above any toasty or salty notes so you get the best almond experience possible.
The incredibly smooth texture also makes this nut butter ideal for blending into sauces, spreads, and dips. You won’t have to worry about uneven clumps or dried-up specks. Once stirred, this nut butter is silky smooth.
Best for Smoothies
Creamy Salted Cashew Butter
Cashews don’t naturally have an intense nuttiness, even when they’re roasted. Instead, they’re almost delicately sweet with a hint of nut flavor. It makes for quite a delicious snack—and apparently an even nut butter. The Trader Joe’s cashew butter would be a chameleon of sorts in smoothies, milk shakes, even peanut butter drizzles for ice cream or frozen yogurt. The delicate flavor wouldn’t overpower these treats, bringing balance to the fruit and sweetened frozen desserts.
We could also see this as a spread on a savory sandwich: grilled turkey, carrots, red onion, cucumbers, spinach, a smear of this cashew butter, and a drop or two of sriracha. We wouldn’t be unopposed to adding a sprinkle of ground cinnamon to the jar and swirling it up for an oatmeal stir-in delight.
Best for Apple Slices and Eating by the Spoonful
Mixed Nut Butter
If you have ever wondered what combining almost every peanut in the grocery store, save peanuts and pistachios, would taste like, Trader Joe’s has the answer: the ultra spoonable, incredibly flavorful Mixed Nut Butter. The first thing to hit the palate when you nibble a bit of this nut butter may be the almonds, then along comes hints of really rich walnuts, Brazil nuts, and pecans. Delicately sweet cashews and hazelnuts round out the mix.
Sweet foods would pair well with this option because it’s quite savory. Consider coupling it with fresh berries over yogurt, or stirring it into the top of brownie batter. Very little nutty sweetness comes through, but it’s so luxurious that you should have no qualms eating it one spoonful at a time—we certainly don’t. |
Key Makeup Artist
Everyone wears makeup in the movies. Seriously, everyone. The work of a makeup artist on a film or television show is not limited to glam-ing up the leading lady or turning a walk-on actor into a decaying dead body on the autopsy table, the job is also utilitarian and necessary to counteract the negative effects of intensely bright production lighting. Without makeup, all performers on screen would appear pale, washed out, and with facial expressions barely visible.
Duties
Answering to the director and production designer, the key makeup artist is a department head that is responsible for planning the makeup designs for all leading and supporting cast, to include cosmetic makeup and facial/body hair applications. When a special effects makeup artist has been hired on to the production, the key makeup artist will consult with this person on the execution of all prosthetics and SFX makeup. In production, the key artist will perform most of the daily makeup applications, while delegating additional responsibilities to subordinate crew. It is common that the department head performs makeup applications on lead cast, with assistance, and allows other crew members to work with supporting and minor roles, depending on seniority. The department head will execute especially complicated or important makeup processes that are to be featured on camera. The key makeup artist and crew remain on set or in the makeup trailer throughout the entire shooting day to perform touchups as needed and to remove makeup from performers.
In support of the function of the makeup department, the key makeup artist is ultimately responsible for recording continuity of makeup during shooting. The task of making notes in the script and photographing the cast may be delegated to another crewmember, but the department head will closely supervise these activities. This is to ensure that if re-shoots must be done, the crew can accurately recreate the look to match the previous footage. This person is also tasked with tracking and purchasing makeup materials and equipment, scheduling crew, and fabricating special prosthetics. Again, these tasks may be assigned to subordinate crew but are ultimately the responsibility of the department head.
Skills & Education
A formal degree is not required for a career as a key makeup artist, but training and practice are essential. Education can be gained through attaining a degree in film and television production or theatrical design with an emphasis on makeup, or through attending a traditional cosmetology school. Many working makeup artists learn in part by mentoring under a veteran of the industry. Basic techniques can be taught in a classroom environment, but continuing education under a seasoned master is necessary to pick up those individual trade secrets. While it is not a requirement that a makeup artist be a chemist, a basic understanding of chemistry is beneficial in adapting and innovating how different products are used. Many professionals are known to work up their own proprietary blends for use on set. Furthermore, as production cosmetics can vary widely from consumer products, a makeup artist must be aware of how the makeup will react to specific conditions of heat, moisture, and other cosmetics. Specific training in applying makeup for film and digital video is essential; this should include an in-depth course in production lighting and cameras.
What to Expect
Like most creative and skilled trades, makeup in film and television production is a field that requires constant and continued re-education. Each time you have mastered a particular technique or found a product to swear by, someone has innovated a newer, better version. At the very least, it keeps the work interesting. On the job, makeup artists can anticipate to work irregular schedules and long hours, depending on the production schedule. While the trailers on set may look familiar, shooting locations may vary from a production lot in LA to unpredictable terrain in the middle of the desert or a rainy tropical region. The key makeup artist must plan for all eventualities that can affect the function of his or her department; that means accounting for weather, electrical needs (in coordination with the generator operator), and ensuring that there is a sufficient quantity of extra supplies. When on location in a remote setting, there is no sending an assistant out for more Q-tips or concealer. As makeup artists often find themselves in very intimate settings with the cast in the application of facial and body makeup, a good artist should be discrete, polite, and always gentle with the mascara brush. It should go without saying, but a breath mint and good dose of deodorant go a long way in a small trailer. |
[G proteins].
G proteins play a central role in the mechanism of action of most hormones and neurotransmitters. They act as signal transducers between membrane receptors activated by extracellular stimuli on the one hand and intracellular effectors which control the concentrations of cytosolic messenger molecules (cAMP, cGMP, inositol phosphates, Ca2+) on the other. G proteins form a highly conserved family of membrane-associated proteins composed of alpha, beta and subunits. The alpha subunit, which is unique for each G protein, determines its biological activity and binds GDP and GTP. A number of diseases are already known to involve structural and/or quantitative changes of G proteins in plasma membranes. Interestingly, proteins encoded by some oncogenes show a high degree of homology with G proteins, which suggests that certain malignancies may be caused by alterations of transmembrane signaling. |

Q:
Search.php gets metadata from first post
I've got this in header.php in <head> section:
$page_color = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'page_color', true);
It works fine because it gets correct page_color for posts and pages but when I perform some search and search.php is run, it occasionally gets page_color of first post it finds. This is the content of search.php:
<?php
if( have_posts() ) :
while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php else : ?>
Nothing found.
<?php endif; ?>
Any ideas why is that?
A:
I don't think it's just occasionally, that will always get you the post meta of the first post on a search results page, a taxonomy page, an archive page - any page where there are multiple posts, because the $post global will always be populated with the first post of any main query result.
EDIT-
if ( is_singular() ) :
// we are viewing a single post or page
$page_color = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'page_color', true);
else :
// not a single post or page, use a default color
$page_color = 'blue';
endif;

YouTube/America Today Syrian TV says a bomb has gone off in western Aleppo where dozens of people were gathered for a Christmas tree-lighting event.
No injuries were reported from Tuesday's bomb, which went off near Azizieh square in government-controlled western Aleppo.
A reporter for the channel said celebrations resumed a few minutes after the bomb went off. Dozens of Syrians were seen dancing and waving Syrian flags and red balloons to blaring music as they rallied around a giant tree decorated with Christmas lights.
Huge posters of President Bashar Assad and the leaders of Russia and Hezbollah were put up.
The celebration in western Aleppo was taking place on the same day as the evacuation of the last rebels and residents of the former rebel-held enclave in eastern Aleppo was taking place. |
Well, what's REALLY weird is the presence of Star Wars pilots on a Star TREK world!
This could redefine our understandings of hyperspace/warp theory.
I mean, is it not quantumly feasible for there to be a line of causality which includes this reality and both fictional stories as real sequences? I'm sure Data could isolate such a quantum timeline, given access to the proper equipment. It would take a Jedi Master to truly understand it, though.
Yes, my friends...we live in an age where science tells us that weird things can happen!

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Activists vow to keep fighting after a court sided with a developer who has tried for years to keep hikers from using a trail that cuts across scenic property he owns in Los Angeles.
The Times reports Sunday (http://lat.ms/2aGTmNR) that an appellate court last week ruled that Mohamed Hadid has the right to restrict access to the land in Franklin Canyon near Beverly Hills. Hadid, who has built more than a dozen Ritz-Carlton hotels around the globe, hopes to develop the property.
He has been embroiled in a legal battle with activists fighting to keep the trail open to the public.
Hadid’s lawyers successfully appealed a lower court’s ruling, arguing that just because people have been allowed to walk on the land for decades doesn’t mean they should have a right to it.

Unearthing Ways To Get Golden Glow On One’s Skin
Women are always finding the formula for getting that ‘unreachable’ golden glow on their skin. They seem to have tried all the tricks that it takes to do away with dullness; still, a few majority of them seem to succeed in their mission. This poses a question why a vast majority of women isn’t able to achieve the same results. There are several reasons behind this, and the most prominent one is that women are not even aware of their skin type at times, and this makes them follow an inappropriate and an inadequate skincare regimen that doesn’t work effectively. So, there are several ways that could help a woman get that scintillating glowing glow on her skin that she has always craved for.
Find Out The Skin Type
As it has been pointed out before as well, the first thing that every woman must assess is the type of skin she has. Their skin can be dry, oily, or combination skin. It is best to learn about this thing, as only then they can take effective care of their skin.
Face Wash
Secondly, women must realize that face wash plays a key role in their skincare routine. So, choosing an appropriate face wash that doesn’t dry out their skin is necessary. It must be gentle on their skin. Also, washing the face is recommended twice in a day. Quite often women are seen to wash their face just once, believing that should achieve the purpose. However, this is the prime reason why golden glow keeps on eluding them. They are basically giving a chance to the pollutants to stay on their skin for a long time. So, cleansing must be done first thing in the morning to get rid of bacteria that might have got transferred from the pillow to the face. And then, washing the face is recommended just before going to bed as that would ensure that the skin gets that freshness, and also gets a chance to work upon the process of repairing itself properly.
Good Toner
The next step is to choose a good toner. Good toner means a toner that is appropriate to one’s skin type. A toner performs the function of balancing the pH of the skin. However, there are different toners for different types of skin. The one with dry skin benefits from toners that specifically address to their problem, as there are toners that work effectively in ensuring hydration of their skin. Besides, these toners also ensure that flakes are kept at bay. Moreover, women with oily skin also benefit from a good toner as that toner shrinks the size of the pores, and also keeps the skin soft and hydrated all the time. So, the importance of toner can’t be undermined.
Perfect Moisturizer
As everything has to be perfect, a moisturizer has to be perfect too. Again, perfect implies that it must be appropriate for the skin. So, women who have dry skin should go for cream based moisturizer; while, the ones with oily skin should opt for water based or gel based moisturizer. |
Dynamic covalent chemistry in aqueous solution by photoinduced radical disulfide metathesis.
Photoinduced radical disulfide metathesis (PRDM) is a dynamic covalent reaction that requires UV light to induce the homolytic cleavage of the disulfide bond, thus offering the opportunity to construct dynamic covalent systems that are dormant and can be photo-activated on demand. In this work, we showcase how PRDM can be utilized in aqueous solution and demonstrate its potential by generating a UV responsive hydrogel from an asymmetrical disulfide precursor. |

Essentially all CNS lymphomas, as well as most peripheral lymphomas, in AIDS carry the EBV genome. We hypothesize that novel approaches that specifically target EBV-infected cells for destruction will be useful for the treatment of AIDS-related lymphomas. In this grant, we propose to develop and compare different EBV-based approaches for the treatment of AIDS-related lymphomas, capitalizing upon our extensive knowledge of EBV gene regulation. In our first specific aim, we will investigate the feasibility of using lytic EBV infection, in combination with cytotoxic prodrugs that are activated by lytic EBV gene products, to kill EBV-associated lymphomas. We will identify the most efficient agents for inducing lytic EBV infection in lymphomas, investigate the underlying viral and cellular mechanisms responsible for this effect, and compare the efficacy of ganciclovir versus AZT (in combination with lytic inducing agents) for treating EBV-positive lymphomas in vivo. In our second specific aim, we will determine if the cellular CD70 protein (the ligand for the CD27 receptor), can be used to direct EBV-specific killing of cells. CD70 is over-expressed on the surface of most EBV-positive malignancies, but very few normal cells. We will also examine the importance of the CD70/CD27 interaction for regulation of EBV gene expression, as well as cell growth, in EBV-positive lymphoblastoid cells in vitro and in vivo. In our third specific aim, we will investigate the role of the EBV immediate-early proteins, if any, in EBV-induced lymphomas in vitro, as well as in vivo, using BZLF1 and BRLF1 knock-out viruses. Our preliminary data suggest that BZLF1 expression may be required for efficient outgrowth of EBV-infected primary B cells in vitro, possibly due to a BZLF1 -induced paracrine factor. Our proposed studies may lead to novel, EBV-based strategies for treating AIDS-related lymphomas. [unreadable] [unreadable] [unreadable] |

The periareolar approach to breast augmentation.
Incision placement in patients undergoing augmentation mammaplasty is an important element of the overall strategic plan of the procedure. Whatever incision location is chosen, access to the breast must be sufficient to afford accurate dissection of the pocket, to allow easy insertion of the implant, and to provide for precise hemostasis. At the same time, the incision should be placed where the resulting scar will be inconspicuous and well hidden. For many surgeons, the periareolar approach satisfies all of these requirements. This article describes the various advantages associated with the periareolar incision for breast augmentation and provides the technical details to enable best use of the technique. |
Neural bases of rapid word learning.
Humans are unique in developing large lexicons as their communication tool; to achieve this, they are able to learn new words rapidly. However, neural bases of this rapid learning, which may be an expression of a more general cognitive mechanism likely rooted in plasticity at cellular and synaptic levels, are not yet understood. In this update, the author highlights a selection of recent studies that attempted to trace word learning in the human brain noninvasively. A number of brain areas, most notably in hippocampus and neocortex, appear to take part in word acquisition. Critically, the currently available data not only demonstrate the hippocampal role in rapid encoding followed by slow-rate consolidation of cortical word memory traces but also suggest immediate neocortical involvement in the word memory trace formation. Echoing early behavioral studies in ultra-rapid word learning, the reviewed neuroimaging experiments can be taken to suggest that our brain may effectively form new cortical circuits online, as it gets exposed to novel linguistic patterns in the sensory input. |

Visible light-activatable multicargo microemulsions with bimodal photobactericidal action and dual colour fluorescence.
In this contribution we report the design, preparation, and physico-chemical, photophysical and photochemical characterization of photoactivatable microemulsions (MEs) based on Labrasol®, isopropanol and Lauroglycol® FCC as a surfactant, co-surfactant and oily phase, respectively. The MEs co-incorporate, in their oil phase, two lipophilic guests such as a red emitting singlet oxygen (1O2) photosensitizer (PS) and a tailored green emitting nitric oxide (NO) photodonor (NOPD). These two chromofluorogenic units absorb in different spectral windows of the visible range, and their individual photophysical and photochemical properties are well-conserved when co-entrapped in the microemulsions. These features permit the PS and NOPD to operate either individually or in tandem resulting in (i) red, green or both fluorescence emission, (ii) photogeneration of cytotoxic 1O2, NO or both and (iii) amplified photobactericidal action against Staphylococcus aureus due to the combined effect of these two antibacterial agents. |
Flexion and supination deformities of the elbow in tetraplegics.
Fixed flexion and supination deformities of the elbow occur occasionally in tetraplegics. The patients in whom this was seen were those who following injury had a neurological level at C5 and who subsequently developed radial wrist extension and brachioradialis function. They were generally patients who spent long hours with their elbows flexed and supinated. A simple effective method of biceps tenotomy and plaster correction is described. Recurrence of deformity was seen if the flexion supination posture was continued. Strength of elbow flexion was not reduced. Patients maintained correction if they refrained from poor elbow posture and wore a simple plastic splint. The procedure of correction is not difficult and because of its simplicity it can be repeated if deformity recurs. |

Mustache Party – It’s now the time of year that some women absolutely love, while others seem to hate. It’s the time when men cease doing anything with any of their facial hair in what has long been referred to as both “Movember” and “No Shave November.”
Despite some women not liking this, it has actually been shown as of late that not shaving during this particular time of year actually does some good.
Similar to Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which takes place during the month of October, “No Shave November” helps to raise awareness regarding men’s health, more especially in relation to mental health, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.
Men partake in this by growing a mustache during the entire month of November, which is something that ended up leading to conversations about men’s health, as well as collecting donations for multiple men’s health organizations.
Women can also take part in this as well, even though they aren’t able to grow facial hair like men can; however, they can organize various events and collect donations for various organizations that help to promote men’s health.
A great way to collect donations is to throw a “Movember” party, otherwise known as a “Mo Party.” For instance, invite friends to either a local restaurant or bar, bring snacks to your work for a form of celebration, or host a party right in your own home.
Educate your guests about various men’s health issues and encourage them to donate to help with the cause, all while having fun at the same time.
Here are some great tips for you to make note of that will help you throw your own successful “Mo Party”!
Add Mustaches to Party Décor
Mustache-shaped party decoration can often be hard to locate, no matter where you look. In this case, incorporate fake ones into your own decor yourself, such as cutting out mustache shapes to add to the invitations using construction paper of different colors.
Of course, you will need to include as many details as possible on the invitations. If you would prefer to not create these yourself, you could choose to create them electronically instead.
Furthermore, hang a mustache-printed banner in the entryway of your home so that your guests are aware of the purpose of the party.
Additionally, it will be a good idea to inform your guests about where they can leave their donations, as well as who they can make checks out to if they wish to donate that way.
You should also choose a more general color scheme for your party, as well as coordinate decorations to help embellish the space itself.
For instance, line the space with either streamers or garland, incorporate paper lanterns, metallic whirls, or any other kind of hanging decorations that you feel make be appropriate – of course, with a few mustache clings attached to them.
You can also use traditional balloons as table decorations; however consider drawing mustaches on these as well with a permanent market or even placing mustache stickers on them if you can find some.
Add some casino tables to provide an activity for your guests. They will compete at the gambling tables, to see who ends up with the biggest stash!
Another fun activity would be to offer some of these items up as prizes by winning games that can be played throughout the party, such as a “guess the mustache” type of game, which involves printing out photos of famous celebrities with recognizable mustaches, but covering everything up except their facial hair.
The first guest who correctly gets the most guesses on who the facial hair belongs to will win the prizes! |
The appetite-inducing peptide, ghrelin, induces intracellular store-mediated rises in calcium in addiction and arousal-related laterodorsal tegmental neurons in mouse brain slices.
Ghrelin, a gut and brain peptide, has recently been shown to be involved in motivated behavior and regulation of the sleep and wakefulness cycle. The laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (LDT) is involved in appetitive behavior and control of the arousal state of an organism, and accordingly, behavioral actions of ghrelin could be mediated by direct cellular actions within this nucleus. Consistent with this interpretation, postsynaptically mediated depolarizing membrane actions of ghrelin on LDT neurons have been reported. Direct actions were ascribed solely to closure of a potassium conductance however this peptide has been shown in other cell types to lead to rises in calcium via release of calcium from intracellular stores. To determine whether ghrelin induced intracellular calcium rises in mouse LDT neurons, we conducted calcium imaging studies in LDT brain slices loaded with the calcium binding dye, Fura-2AM. Ghrelin elicited TTX-insensitive changes in dF/F indicative of rises in calcium, and a portion of these rises were independent of membrane depolarization, as they persisted in conditions of high extracellular potassium solutions and were found to involve SERCA-pump mediated intracellular calcium stores. Involvement of the ghrelin receptor (GHR-S) in these actions was confirmed. Taken together with other studies, our data suggest that ghrelin has multiple cellular actions on LDT cells. Ghrelin's induction of calcium via intracellular release in the LDT could play a role in behavioral actions of this peptide as the LDT governs processes involved in stimulation of motivated behavior and control of cortical arousal. |

Protection of xenogeneic cardiac endothelium from human complement by expression of CD59 or DAF in transgenic mice.
We investigated the ability of membrane-bound human complement regulatory proteins to control complement-driven humoral immune reactions on murine microvasculature. The human complement regulatory proteins CD59 and DAF were expressed using heterologous promoters in a variety of tissues in transgenic mice. Animals expressing these gene products are healthy and exhibit significant levels of endothelial cell expression of CD59 and DAF in cardiac muscle. Transgenic hearts perfused with human plasma exhibited profound reductions in the level of complement deposition compared with nontransgenic controls. We have also produced transgenic pigs that express these two human genes. Our results indicate that expression of complement regulatory proteins can control activation of complement and suggest that these proteins may have therapeutic applications in some inflammatory diseases and in the development of xenogeneic organs for human transplantation. |

2G nexus: Why we must trace the 'do gooder'
Who recorded the alleged conversation between CBI special prosecutor AP Singh and Sanjay Chandra, managing director Unitech and one of the accused in the 2G spectrum scandal? Ideally, it should not matter at this point. The end result more than justifies the means. Without the recording, the larger story of shady alliances between the CBI prosecutors and the accused in big ticket cases would have remained out of public knowledge.
However, there are questions that we must ask. Without satisfactory answers to these, we would be exposing ourselves to unknown dangers. Here are the questions:
Careful! Someone may be listening. AFP
What was the motive behind the recording?
What more do the persons behind it know about 2G cases?
Were they being selective while releasing the tapes to the CBI?
It is obvious that it could not have been a random act, because such activity requires planning. So what was the exact modus operandi?
Was corporate rivalry behind the recording? If so, then there are bigger culprits in the entire episode than Chandra and Singh. In that case, the act does not remain morally justifiable.
Are the top secret conversations among the services chiefs or between the prime minister and someone else being recorded too?
By extension, are all private telephonic conversations among citizens of the country open to eavesdropping?
In the excitement over the latest expose, let’s not ignore the fact that there are people causing grave breach of individual privacy. Any person could be subject to blackmail on the basis of such recorded conversations. What could also be at risk is the vital secrets of the country. The intention here is not to run down the person who recorded the conversation between the Unitech chief and the CBI’s special prosecutor. The fact that the person/persons sent it to the CBI is laudable and their intention, at this point, remains beyond suspicion.
However, caution is important. The person might be under grave risk to his life after making the content of the tape public. His enemies and rivals would eventually identify him and track him down. He might need protection like all whistleblowers in the country do. Moreover, the authorities must understand how the recording took place and what more information is available with the person. They could keep it a secret, but they should be in the know. If anybody can access any telephonic conversation, the country’s security might come under threat. |
Retroreflective sheeting has long been used to improve the night time visibility (or “conspicuity”) of articles and vehicles. This sheeting, which was first developed by Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, St. Paul, Minn. (“3M”), has greatly improved the night time visibility of trucks and has helped prevent countless dangerous accidents.
In certain parts of the world this life-saving sheeting is now mandated by local or national governmental bodies. Often the local governmental body will pass regulations that specify, for example, precisely how much of a truck length should be delineated with the sheeting, as well as other requirements. For example, in the United States a regulation specifies sheeting shape, mounting requirements and even provides a spacing allowance between retroreflective segments. Other jurisdictions have different regulations. Unfortunately, however, the applier may not correctly apply the sheeting, for example by miscalculating the spacing requirements for their particular jurisdiction. In such cases the delineation will have to be corrected, often at considerable cost.
Also, certain types of vehicles have siding that makes it difficult to use the most cost-efficient sheeting. For example, certain canvas-sided trucks would benefit if the generally more common and less costly “rigid-type” of retroreflective sheeting could be used. Unfortunately, however, the flexible nature of the canvas siding does not work well with the more rigid-types of sheeting and the user is left to use a more costly “flexible-type” of sheeting.
From the foregoing, it will be appreciated that what is needed in the art is improved sheeting for article and vehicle conspicuity programs. Such sheeting and methods for preparing and using the same are disclosed and claimed herein. |

This crashes because popen returns NULL, and you use that value without
checking for NULL. This is quite regardless of whether the program
can be executed or not - popen has a large number of reasons why it can
return NULL and anyone not checking the return value deserves to be
eaten alive by bulimic carrier pigeons.
Bug-ridden programs written by hordes of monkeys jumping on keyboards
is not a reason to avoid doing something. In fact, it is a good reason
to do it - to see how amusingly they break so that one can have a good
laugh and can file bug reports with patches to fix the problems.

High-profile supporters of President Donald Trump are turning on special counsel Robert Mueller, the man charged with investigating Russian interference in the U.S. election and possible collusion with Trump's campaign.
As Mueller builds his legal team, Trump's allies have begun raising questions about the former FBI director's impartiality, suggesting he cannot be trusted to lead the probe. The comments come amid increasing frustration at the White House and among Trump supporters that the investigation will overshadow the president's agenda for months to come — a prospect that has Democrats salivating.
Trump friend Chris Ruddy, the CEO of Newsmax, went so far as to suggest the president was already thinking about "terminating" Mueller."I think he's considering perhaps terminating the special counsel," Ruddy said in an interview with Judy Woodruff of "PBS NewsHour." ''I think he's weighing that option."
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, an informal Trump adviser, tweeted Monday, "Republicans are delusional if they think the special counsel is going to be fair. Look who he is hiring."

Just weeks ago, Gingrich had heaped praise on Mueller, hailing him as a "superb choice" for special counsel whose reputation was "impeccable for honesty and integrity."
But after the testimony of former FBI Director James Comey last week, Gingrich said he'd changed his mind.
"Time to rethink," he tweeted Monday, citing Mueller's hiring decisions and Comey's admission that he'd instructed a friend to share with reporters notes he'd taken of his private conversations with Trump in order to force the appointment of special counsel.
Thank you for signing up.
Oops. Something went wrong.
Thank you,
Conservative commentator Ann Coulter offered a similar message, tweeting, "Now that we know TRUMP IS NOT UNDER INVESTIGATION, Sessions should take it back & fire Mueller.
The talk about dismissing Mueller appeared to be coming from Trump allies — including some close to White House strategist Steve Bannon — who are increasingly frustrated with the prospect of a long and winding probe.They say Trump did not collude with Russia and see the investigation as a politically motivated sham that handicaps Trump's ability to execute his agenda, according to one person who advises the White House on how to handle the probe. The person demanded anonymity to discuss strategy on the sensitive matter.
Ruddy appeared to be basing his remarks, at least in part, on comments from Jay Sekulow, a member of Trump's legal team, who told ABC in an interview Sunday that he was "not going to speculate" on whether Trump might at some point order deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein to fire Mueller.
"Look, the president of the United States, as we all know, is a unitary executive. But the president is going to seek the advice of his counsel and inside the government as well as outside. And I'm not going to speculate on what he will or will not do," Sekulow said. Still, he added, "I can't imagine that that issue is going to arise."
It wasn't clear whether Ruddy, who speaks with the president often, was basing his remarks on a specific conversation with the president or entirely on Sekulow's comments. Ruddy did not immediately respond to questions seeking clarification.
Ruddy was at the White House Monday to meet with White House aides, but did not speak with the president, Press Secretary Sean Spicer said. "Mr. Ruddy never spoke to the president regarding this issue," Spicer said. "With respect to this subject, only the president or his attorneys are authorized to comment."
Peter Carr, a spokesman for Mueller, declined to comment on Ruddy's remarks.
Under current Justice Department regulations, firing Mueller would have to be done by Attorney General Jeff Sessions' deputy, Rosenstein, not the president— though those regulations could theoretically be set aside.Sessions recused himself from all matters having to do with the Trump-Russia investigation because of his own conversations with Russian officials during the Trump transition.

Q:
Cross-referencing across multiple databases
I have two databases, one is an MS Access file, the other is a SQL Server database. I need to create a SELECT command that filters data from the SQL Server database based on the data in the Access database. What is the best way to accomplish this with ADO.NET?
Can I pull the required data from each database into two new tables. Put these in a single Dataset. Then perform another SELECT command on the Dataset to combine the data?
Additional Information:
The Access database is not permanent. The Access file to use is set at runtime by the user.
Here's a bit of background information to explain why there are two databases. My company uses a CAD program to design buildings. The program stores materials used in the CAD model in an Access database. There is one file for each model. I am writing a program that will generate costing information for each model. This is based on current material prices stored in a SQL Server database.
My Solution
I ended up just importing the data in the access db into a temporary table in the SQL server db. Performing all the necessary processing then removing the temporary table. It wasn't a pretty solution but it worked.
A:
You don't want to pull both datasets across if you don't have to do that. You are also going to have trouble implementing Tomalak's solution since the file location may change and might not even be readily available to the server itself.
My guess is that your users set up an Access database with the people/products or whatever that they are interested in working with and that's why you need to select across the two databases. If that's the case, the Access table is probably smaller than the SQL Server table(s). Your best bet is to pull in the Access data, then use that to generate a filtered query to SQL Server so that you can minimize the data that is sent over the network.
So, the most important things are:
Filter the data ON THE SERVER so that you can minimize network traffic and also because the database is going to be faster at filtering than ADO.NET
If you have to choose a dataset to pull into your application, pull in the smaller dataset and then use that to filter the other table.

(Yet Another) Visit With the Stranger From the East
AUTHOR’S NOTE: If you don’t know who Carnac the Magnificent is, I hate you because you’re probably much younger than I am. If you don’t understand this bit, that’s why Al Gore invented Youtube. Previous episodes of Rogo-nac the Tremendous can be found here. On that note…
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen. As welcome as Jason Grilli at Comerica Park, it is now time once again for a visit from the Great Stranger from the East. He is the seer of all seers, the smartest man he knows, and Wilson Betemit’s personal arm strength coach. Heaven has no star brighter than Rogo-nac the Tremendous!
/Rogo-nac enters and trips on the stage
Are you okay, oh great one?
I’m fine…I’m fine. I don’t remember that step being there…perhaps I’ll blame it on Dave Dombrowski for no reason.
A common practice, superior one. Now, I hold in my hand a large stack of envelopes. Even a blindfolded Richard Bernstein could see that they have been hermetically sealed and have been kept hidden within the scouting report given to Justin Verlander on Jim Thome. No one knows the contents of these envelopes, but YOU, in your mystical and borderline-divine way, will ascertain the answers having never before seen the questions. Are you ready, sir?
I guess…assuming we have time. You talk a lot…
Hermetically sealed…
I understand.
Within Verlander’s scouting reports of Jim Thome.
Where no one seemingly has ever looked. Let’s get on with this.
Ladies and gentlemen, the first envelope!

Liberalism, is a political philosophy or worldview founded on ideas of liberty and equality. The former principle is stressed in classical liberalism while the latter is more evident in social liberalism.
Yup. Not a liberal, but I can appreciate the checks and balances the two sides of the coin offer. Having blatantly corrupt people associated with your side will tear it apart, resulting in an unchecked conservative side. I'm glad we got an outsider who will hopefully clean house. It would be nice to see your side do the same. |

Q:
Scrapy Body Text Only
I am trying to scrape the text only from body using python Scrapy, but haven't had any luck yet.
Wishing some scholars might be able to help me here scraping all the text from the <body> tag.
A:
Scrapy uses XPath notation to extract parts of a HTML document. So, have you tried just using the /html/body path to extract <body>? (assuming it's nested in <html>). It might be even simpler to use the //body selector:
x.select("//body").extract() # extract body
You can find more information about the selectors Scrapy provides here.

Q:
domain driven design isDirty, isNew
If I'm strictly following DDD, aren't the concepts of IsDirty and IsNew as properties on an entity breaking the rule that the entity is supposed to deal only with it's own logic. IsDirty/IsNew are things used for persistence. Even still, I've seen people put this directly in an entity or entity base class. Isn't this a no no? What are some other approaches to getting the same functionality and moving it outside of the entity. Something like an object state tracker? I'm trying to accomplish this so I can do something like order.AddLine() and then call orderRepository.Save(order). I'd like to do this without adding logic in every single setter to say it's dirty.
A:
You are correct that implementing isNew and isDirty is not a practice acceptable in strict adherence to DDD. Typically you want to use Unit of Work pattern to handle keeping track of the domain layer changes that need to be communicated to the persistence store.

A couple of centuries ago, to be called gay could have been a compliment. By the end of 1990s, however, it had attained a connotation to homosexuality and later came to be used as a pejorative. This is just one of the many cases in which word meanings have evolved (drastically) with time. At the same time, it has to be understood that a word can have different meanings for different people and in different contexts. For e.g some people genuinely believe that “Islam” is a religion of peace and that the word itself means “peace”. While the true origin of the word means “subjugation”, if its meaning were to change as drastically as that of ‘gay’ & come to mean ‘peace’, it would be a welcome metamorphosis indeed.
The Indic philosophers, perhaps were wise to this, and therefore did not impose constraints on definitions of God and, as it evolved into later on, on the religion called Hinduism. Given the intrinsic respect for plurality in its very basis, I find it surprising that there is fight for a singular definition of its political mobilisation avatar viz. Hindutva. I believe that having originated out of Hinduism, Hindutva itself is pluralistic in its definition and therefore can mean different things for different people..
So, while the thinkers and intellectuals identifying with the label of Hindutva may find it offensive to be called fundamentalist, (when they find it an affirmation of a liberal philosophy), they have to be cognisant of the fact that genuine bigotry, xenophobia and hatred towards other peoples, do ride piggyback on Hindutva as a means of expression of their hatred.
When people (Muslims or otherwise) defend Islam as a religion of peace, I prefer the pithy reply, “Please tell that to those using violence in the name of Islam and not me, for, I do not identify with it.” In the same way, the burden of disowning, calling out and shaming the bigots who march in the name of Hindtuva, also falls with those identifying themselves with Hindutva. But, such burden is not limited to religious alone.
If words like “liberal” and “secular” have become curse words for many, it is because, hypocrisy, duality and bias (bigotry in many cases), too obvious to ignore, have become rampant amongst those claiming to be secular or liberal. Intellectual consistency dictates that just as the burden of disowning bigotry was put on Hindutva movement, the same burden also lies with those identifying with liberal movements (or for that matter any such movements).
Or we could just ignore this and go back to calling each other names, using labels as curses, obviating the need for any intellectual effort and critical thought on either side. |
JANETTA SILK DRESS
DESCRIPTION
Color:
The very first style to walk down Tory's spring runway show, the Janetta Dress is one of the collection's defining pieces. In keeping with our seaside Deauville theme, we created a plaid that has a handpainted, artisinal feel. Feminine and fluid, with a cascade of accordion-pleated ruffles, it's equally chic for day or evening. |
Absolute augmentation of the extremely atrophic mandible. (A modified technique).
A modified technique for reconstruction of the atrophic mandible is presented. The caudal part of the mandible is mobilized through a combined intra-extraoral approach or an entirely extraoral approach. The bone graft is then inserted between the osteotomized fragments. The results in terms of bone resorption are comparable with those of the original method, but the risk of a lesion of the mandibular nerve is substantially reduced. Moreover, supplementary vestibuloplasty is only occasionally necessary. |
Q:
virtual host from IP address
if I don't have an domain and what I have is IP address.. how can I create a virtual host? can someone give me an example of a nginx.conf file?
A:
Use hosts file. Add server directive to nginx config:
server {
server_name example.com;
root /var/www/example.com;
}
Create /var/www/example.com:
# mkdir /var/www/example.com
# echo "example.com virtualhost" >> /var/www/example.com/index.html
Add example.com to your local system hosts files(%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\ in Windows):
#echo "IP example.com" > /etc/hosts
Also you can use DynDNS.

From crystal to glass-like thermal conductivity in crystalline minerals.
The ability of some materials with a perfectly ordered crystal structure to mimic the heat conduction of amorphous solids is a remarkable physical property that finds applications in numerous areas of materials science, for example, in the search for more efficient thermoelectric materials that enable to directly convert heat into electricity. Here, we unveil the mechanism in which glass-like thermal conductivity emerges in tetrahedrites, a family of natural minerals extensively studied in geology and, more recently, in thermoelectricity. By investigating the lattice dynamics of two tetrahedrites of very close compositions (Cu12Sb2Te2S13 and Cu10Te4S13) but with opposite glasslike and crystal thermal transport by means of powder and single-crystal inelastic neutron scattering, we demonstrate that the former originates from the peculiar chemical environment of the copper atoms giving rise to a strongly anharmonic excess of vibrational states. |

Q:
In a WPF project, how do I initialize my Window and controls and then jump into a main loop?
Apologies if the question is poorly phrased, new to C#. I'm trying to make a text adventure. I've already written all the underlying logic, and decided to try and use a WPF for basic graphics. So I initialize the window with all the controls I need and then loop through my main loop until you trigger an exit. I initially tried putting the loop right after initializing the window.
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
Game.Logic();
}
This didn't really work well as the Window stopped initializing at all.
So I googled around a bit and tried using a Loaded Event. Once I did that, the Window pops up when I run the code, but none of the controls appear and the window is frozen. The same problem persisted when I tried to use a Loaded Event for the controls themselves. While there may be some kind of bug in my Game Loop, I think the Window should at least be able to initialize all its controls if I'm jumping into the Loop correctly. Would the right thing to do be to go into the App file and use a Loaded Event there? Or am I just completely out of line somehow?
A:
You're pretty far out of line.
By executing a tight loop on the UI thread, you are killing any chance of the UI ever updating, even if you got past your current roadblocks. As far as Windows is concerned; you are "frozen".
You need to run your logic loop on another thread and use Dispatcher.BeginInvoke to get any UI updates (and only UI updates) back onto the UI thread. While typically not as useful in game contexts, also consider using the MVVM pattern with Bindings as its harder to fall into this trap.
For a text adventure, I would strongly recommend the MVVM pattern as all of your elements are easily represented as bound items/collections. Plus, it gets you into good modern development practices :)

Looking Inside the Matrix: Perineuronal Nets in Plasticity, Maladaptive Plasticity and Neurological Disorders.
The integrity of the central nervous system (CNS) matrix is crucial for its proper function. Loss of the lattice-like structure compromise synaptic stability and can lead to the disruption of the excitatory/inhibitory balance, astrocytosis, maladaptive plasticity and neuronal death. Perineuronal nets (PNNs) in the extracellular matrix (ECM) provide synaptic integration and control the functional wiring between neurons. These nets are significantly modified during CNS disorders, such as neurodegenerative, cerebrovascular and inflammatory diseases. The breakdown or the modification of PNNs could be due to the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) or to the deposition of proteoglycans, glycoproteins, and hyaluronic acid. The expression and the activity of ECM-degrading enzymes can be regulated with tissue inhibitors of MMPs or via transcriptional and epigenetic silencing or enhancement (i.e. via histone deacetylases). The identification of molecules and mechanisms able to modify these processes will be essential for a new perspective on brain functioning in health and disease, leading to a target-directed approach with drugs directly interfering with the molecular mechanism underlying neurological disorders. |
Ferric enterobactin receptor (FepA) is an E. coli outer membrane protein which functions to find an iron-chelator complex, ferric enterobactin, and transport it through the outer membrane. FepA is a member of a class of outer membrane transporters which recognizes their substrates with high specificity and catalyze active transport across the outer membrane. No structure exists for any member of this class of transporters. Because the protein contains no free cysteines, five cysteine mutants have been created by site-directed mutagenesis to aid derivatization with heavy atoms. |

Q:
poolmon: Which driver uses "Thre"?
One step further: On my machine, the pool tagged "Thre" grows about 1MB/day. Searching for "Thre" with findstr returns about every *.sys file on my harddisk. Any ideas how I could reduce the number of possible culprits?
A:
You should try downloading the Debugging Tools for Windows. It includes a pooltag.txt that includes the common tags and what they represent. In your case:
Thre - nt!ps - Thread objects
Also, the newer versions of poolmon (e.g. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2105564e-1a9a-4bf4-8d74-ec5b52da3d00&displaylang=en) apparently have a "/c" parameter that will show this information within poolmon itself (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms792885.aspx#a0735340-c309-44d2-9e42-0d018029ad54)

‘True Blood’ Thinks Strippers Are Good for Food
Last night’s “True Blood” was a weird one. No one really knows why Bill is doing what he’s doing (to protect Sookie, we assume, but…really??), werewolves get high on V and brand peopl, and Sookie’s physique is that of a prize-winning bodybuilder.
So, whatever. That’s all in good fun. But things started to get a little dicey for me when Bill’s limo pulled up outside a strip club, and his new vampire boss told him to “procure” a human — i.e., to go in there and find someone for them to eat. Who in the world, I wondered, do the writers think that audiences won’t mind seeing die as vampire food?
My fears about where they were going with this only got worse when Lorena requested someone “ethnic.” But as it turns out, “True Blood” writers assume that all mainstream America needs to know is that someone is a stripper, and it becomes relatively OK for them to be murdered. At least, it’s more OK for them to die then for someone else. Because obviously, as the show told us, no one loves her, she loves no one, she has no reason to live, and in fact she hates life. Easily understandable, since she’s nothing but a common whore!
Yup — thanks for that, HBO. That was cliche, stupid and incredibly offensive. Sex workers get raped and murdered on the regular in this country, and our very own criminal justice system often rules that they had what was coming to them. Way to play to the lowest common American denominator by assuming that strippers are the people that this country cares the least about, that have the least amount of human value, and that would be the best choice to have brought on the show as vampire food.
Listen — let’s be real. There’s probably no one they could have chosen to fill that role that would have been un-offensive. So why not just leave it a bit of a mystery? Grab someone off the street, without showing their face, and have them get eaten. Or, God forbid, have them feast on a man. But why play into every single sex worker stereotype to justify the senseless killing of one? Even if the general public didn’t already think of sex workers as disposable, it would be wildly offensive. But too often they do, and “True Blood” just pretty much reinforced it. |
Q:
What platform should I use for a master server?
We are making a small FPS, and want people to be able to play it online and fetch a list of all servers from a master server. We only have experience in C#, and we have already written a master server that tracks all the servers.
However we realize that we'd have to host it on a windows application server. These are expensive, and making our master server completely reliable and watertight may be a lot of work. Also it seems a waste to have a server out there running windows and our tiny application that only tracks a list of servers...
Should we make the effort to learn PHP and SQL and make our master server that way? Does anyone know of any master servers written in PHP to get us started?
A:
I would write the server in the language/toolchain you know best, rather than learn a new one for that purpose, especially if you have any concerns about making the server "watertight." You're more likely to make mistakes with technology you are unfamiliar with. Unless the cost is prohibitively more to run a Windows server, I would stick with that platform.
However, you may also be able to find hosting providers that will run *nix servers with mono available, so you can run your master server that way.
A:
You might find this article to be of particular value.
Long story short, you can get an Amazon server set up running *nix and Mono, and so have a cheap C# server to do your server stuff.
If you are just doing a master server list, this shouldn't be too hard--hell, even just a servers.txt that gets polled might do it for you.

Cholangiocarcinoma and its mimickers in primary sclerosing cholangitis.
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is the most common malignancy in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Approximately half of CCA are diagnosed within two years of initial diagnosis and often have a poor prognosis because of advanced tumor stage at the time of diagnosis. Thus, rigorous initial imaging evaluation for detecting CCA is important. CCA in PSC usually manifests as intrahepatic mass-forming or perihilar periductal-infiltrating type. Imaging diagnosis is often challenging due to pre-existing biliary strictures and heterogeneous liver. Multimodality imaging approach and careful comparison with prior images are often helpful in detecting small CCA. Ultrasound is widely used as an initial test, but has a limited ability to detect small tumors in the heterogeneous liver with PSC. MRI combined with MRCP is excellent to demonstrate focal biliary abnormalities as well as subtle liver masses. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound is useful to demonstrate CCA by demonstrating rapid and marked washout. In addition, there are other disease entities that mimic CCA including hepatocellular carcinoma, confluent hepatic fibrosis, IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis, inflammatory mass, and focal fat deposition. In this pictorial essay, imaging findings of CCA in PSC is described and discuss the challenges in imaging surveillance for CCA in the patients with PSC. Imaging findings of the mimickers of CCA in PSC and their differentiating features are also discussed. |

Don’t include me in your crazy rhetoric. As a woman, this does not represent me. I am not an extremist or a feminist. No one is stealing any of my rights or beliefs. I am not a victim. I am not oppressed. Look to the Middle East and Africa where this is really needed…where the real rape culture is.
Have women been discriminated against? Yes, and it was wrong. It wasn’t corrected by burning bras or wearing offensive hats depicting female genitalia. That discrimination was overcome by the hard work of millions of women. The battle was won by showing the world through our efforts, studying more, and working harder. Actions always speak louder than words.
Rarely will I discuss politics or post about the subject. My political views are mine and no one will change my mind by arguing politics with me. My views are a mix, but I’d say I’m more conservative than liberal. I suppose it depends on the subject. Maybe I’ll write a post about it so you can get to know me even better. I don’t vote by political party which makes me more of an Independent, but I’m not registered that way.
I don’t try to impose my views on anyone else and I’ll respect your right to your own political opinions. I expect the same in return. I may not agree with you, but I will respect your opinion and only if you belittle me and push my buttons will I argue with you. Those who know me know where I stand, so this very rarely happens. We’ll just have to agree to disagree in the end.
NOW having said that, I watched this video on Facebook earlier. The woman filming the video asked that it be shared to get her eloquent message spread across all forms of social media. Since no one knows me personally, the phrase “eloquent message” was dripping with sarcasm, however I am happy to oblige her request.
I must warn you that the video does contain offensive language. Kudos to the police officer in the video. He has my utmost respect and I admire his ability to remain calm.
Regardless of whether you support Trump, Clinton, Sanders, Johnson, Stein, or Mickey Mouse, let this be an example to everyone…you aren’t helping your cause when you act this way.
Gotta respect one another folks, even when you disagree….or in this case, when you don’t like a political sign on someone’s personal property.
God bless America!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Please feel free to share and help this lady out. She did request it after all. |

Designed for hunting, self-defense and law enforcement applications, the XTP® bullet demonstrates the kind of accuracy which led many competitive shooters to adopt it. Its reliable performance makes the XTP® the most popular handgun bullet for both target shooters and hunters. It's the stopping power of the XTP® bullet that has truly built its world-class reputation. From the onset, XTP® bullets were specifically designed to expand reliably at a wide range of handgun velocities to deliver deep penetration with every shot. Features: Precise serrations divide the XTP® into symmetrical sections, strategically weakening the jacket and initiating controlled expansion even at low velocities. Total uniformity of core density ensures balanced expansion as well as in-flight stability Expansion is controlled by varying jacket thickness down the length of the XTP®, providing a definite advantage over plated bullets which have a uniform jacket thickness over the entire bullet. On revolver bullets, the cannelure helps achieve accurate, consistent, crimping. All cannelures are applied before the final forming process to eliminate any distortion to the finished bullet.

Image Denoising Based on Nonlocal Bayesian Singular Value Thresholding and Stein's Unbiased Risk Estimator.
Singular value thresholding (SVT)- or nuclear norm minimization (NNM)-based nonlocal image denoising methods often rely on the precise estimation of the noise variance. However, most existing methods either assume that the noise variance is known or require an extra step to estimate it. Under the iterative regularization framework, the error in the noise variance estimate propagates and accumulates with each iteration, ultimately degrading the overall denoising performance. In addition, the essence of these methods is still least squares estimation, which can cause a very high mean-squared error (MSE) and is inadequate for handling missing data or outliers. In order to address these deficiencies, we present a hybrid denoising model based on variational Bayesian inference and Stein's unbiased risk estimator (SURE), which consists of two complementary steps. In the first step, the variational Bayesian SVT performs a low-rank approximation of the nonlocal image patch matrix to simultaneously remove the noise and estimate the noise variance. In the second step, we modify the conventional SURE full-rank SVT and its divergence formulas for rank-reduced eigen-triplets to remove the residual artifacts. The proposed hybrid BSSVT method achieves better performance in recovering the true image compared with state-of-the-art methods. |

Chronic intestinal pseudoobstruction as a complication of Duchenne's muscular dystrophy.
We report a case of Duchenne's muscular dystrophy complicated by intestinal pseudoobstruction. The patient had recurrent attacks of nausea, vomiting, and abdominal distention for many years, and abdominal films repeatedly showed a dilated and fluid-filled small intestine and colon. Barium studies showed an esophageal diverticulum, reduced esophageal and gastric motility, and a dilated small bowel and colon. Pathologically, the entire gastrointestinal tract had smooth muscle fibrosis, but this was most marked in the esophagus and stomach. We conclude that Duchenne's muscular dystrophy may involve intestinal smooth muscle and produce pseudoobstruction. |
[Pathophysiology of preeclampsia].
Preeclampsia is a human disease, usually occurring during the third trimester of pregnancy. The underlying pathogenetic mechanisms of preeclampsia are much debated. Current hypotheses include placental dysfunction, inflammatory disease, genetic predisposition and immune maladaptation. Recent studies highlight the role of vascular-mediated factors in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia and allow new hopes for screening and therapeutic approaches. This article describes pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the defective uteroplacental vascularization leading to placental and endothelial dysfunction. |

Create the life you want and have gaming be part of it!
Digital games are very stimulating (fun) and easily accessible, which is why it’s so easy to be addicted to them.
Whatever you focus on – expands.
When you put all of your time, energy, and focus into gaming – other essential parts of your life can suffer. This condition is called gaming disorder and it’s officially been recognized as a mental health issue by the ‘International Classification of Diseases’.
We’ll help you gain emotional confidence, gain physical confidence, and create the life you want. Strong Body, Strong Mind, Get Gains… you get it, right?
As a hardcore gamer, you can actually use your love of gaming as a strength, by applying ‘gamification’ to other parts of your life.
What exactly is gamification?
Gamification – the application of typical elements of gaming to other areas of activity
Just so we’re clear, let’s also define fitness and wellness:
Fitness – the condition of being physically fit and healthy.
Wellness – The state of being in good health, especially as an actively pursued goal
There is no magic pill. It doesn’t matter if you’re not motivated. Just hang out with us and we’ll help you make small choices, that will turn into new habits, that will turn into a new you. |
Q:
Sorting an arraylist into map using iteration
I am making a small programme, part of which iterates over an arraylist sorting the different competitors into a map depending on abilty of each competitor in the array list. It seems to work apart from one problem. The first if statement is not working. Any competitor classed as beginer is not sorted into beginerResults, but instead standardResults. The others are working fine however. Any suggestions?
public void sort()
{
for (Golfer rating : competitors)
{
if (competitors.getScore()== "beginer")
{
beginerResults.put(competitor.getName());
}
if (competitors.getScore()== "Intermediate")
{
intermediateResults.put(competitor.getName());
}
else
{
expertResults.put(age.getName());
}
}
}
A:
Change the String comparisons to
competitors.getScore().equals("beginer")
or even better to
"beginer".equals(competitors.getScore())
Comparing Strings with == is generally not the right way to do this.
Also, beginer is misspelled, check if the calling code has it misspelled
too. If it has it spelled correctly, then that might be your main issue.

Antiproliferative agents and differential survival between normal and cancer cells.
A basic difference in response between normal cells (primate fibroblasts) and colonic cancer cells (human and rodent) to the antiproliferative action of both N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate and thymidine is described in this report. Both normal and colonic cancer cells, when cultured in the presence of these agents, cease to increase their cell numbers. Evidence is presented to show that the normal cells respond to deprivation of pyrimidine nucleotide induced by these agents by simple growth arrest, in which a quiescent state may be maintained for prolonged periods without cell death. Cancer cells are shown to respond in a characteristically different manner in which cell division continues accompanied by limited cell survival, with the surviving population representing a balance of these opposing processes. The extent to which these in vitro findings, based on a limited number of comparisons under restrictive artificial conditions, relate to the in vivo state remains to be established. |
Cucurbit[n]urils: from mechanism to structure and function.
This feature article details some of the unusual recognition properties of the cucurbit[n]uril family (CB[n]) of molecular containers. It discusses the mechanism of CB[n] formation, which proceeds from glycoluril via methylene bridged glycoluril oligomers, along with descriptions of the structures and recognition properties of some kinetically stable macrocyclic intermediates along the way. These partially formed CB[n]-type receptors known as nor-seco-CB[n] display intriguing properties such as chiral recognition, homotropic allostery, and function as aldehyde reaction cucurbituril synthons. |
