BkiUdNs5qhDBLTI4uc29 | A Tempe attorney pleaded guilty to assault and kidnapping in connection with the shooting of his secretary's ex-boyfriend, court officials said.
A Tempe criminal-defense attorney pleaded guilty to assault and kidnapping in connection with the shooting of his secretary's ex-boyfriend in 2013, Maricopa County court officials said.
Joseph Palmisano, 55, initially was accused of kidnapping and attempted murder in the shooting, which took place outside his Tempe office in April 2013, according to court records.
Palmisano admitted to driving there with a loaded gun because he knew the ex-boyfriend was going to be at Palmisano's office, records said.
Palmisano believed the man was tapping his phones, and hacking both his personal and business computers, according to court documents.
Court records said Palmisano arrived at the scene and approached the man, who was in a vehicle, where he was waiting for a custodial exchange with the secretary for their child, records said.
Palmisano demanded that the victim get out of the vehiclewhile Palmisano pointed a gun at him, records said. Palmisano wanted the victim to go inside the office, and the victim did not comply, according to court records.
When the victim tried to duck and move away, Palmisano fired his gun, hitting the victim in the back, court documents said.
The incident was caught on the victim's phone, and the footage was given to authorities, according to court records.
Palmisano is scheduled to be sentenced Feb. 22. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

The issue I am facing is as of now my validationschema looks like

export const validationSchemaLifeSummarySecond = Yup.object().shape({

which works perfectly fine as every input rendered is validating the email, but now I have a new addition in it. I want all the email inside the objects to be unique, so lets say if there are 3 forms all different forms should have different emails (the names can be same). So, how can i add this feature to my validation schema as the normal test function wont perfectly here
Thanks !
A: You can add a custom unique method to your yup schema and use it like this:
Yup.addMethod(Yup.array, "unique", function (message, mapper = (a) => a) {
return this.test("unique", message, function (list) {
return list.length === new Set(list.map(mapper)).size;
});
});
const validationSchemaLifeSummarySecond = Yup.object().shape({
employeeInfo: Yup.array()
.of(
Yup.object().shape({
name: Yup.string()
.typeError("Preencha este campo")
.required("Preencha este campo"),
email: Yup.string()
.required("Este campo é obrigatório")
.email("Formato de e-mail incorreto")
.typeError("Formato de e-mail incorreto")
})
)
.unique("duplicate email", (a) => a.email)
});

BkiUdU7xK4sA-9zSArAT | Peter Thiel, the Silicon Valley billionaire known for his libertarian politics, is leaving the Bay Area after four decades and stepping back from tech due in part to his dissatisfaction with the industry's liberal politics.
Citing what they called Silicon Valley's "sclerotic" culture and "conformity of thought," a source close to Thiel told CNNMoney that the investor would soon move to Los Angeles, where he will "focus on a number of new projects including creating a new media endeavor."
"L.A. is a better place to do that," the source said. "L.A. is also less out of touch and it's a better place to connect with the rest of the country."
Thiel will also move his investment firm Thiel Capital and his Thiel Foundation to Los Angeles, the source said. Founders Fund, where he is a general partner, will remain in San Francisco. Thiel is also considering resigning from the board of Facebook, according to the source.
Thiel, a co-founder of PayPal, has long been outspoken about his politics. But he became a lightning rod in the community and nationally after backing Donald Trump's presidential bid and then joining Trump's transition team.
The Wall Street Journal, which broke the news of Thiel's move, reported Thursday that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg even asked Thiel to consider resigning from his company's board last summer. This came after Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, another Facebook board member, reportedly criticized what he called Thiel's "catastrophically bad judgment" in supporting Trump.
Since then, the source close to him said, Thiel has grown more aware of what he views as liberal intolerance.
"Peter thinks the same network effects that concentrate talent in the Valley (adding value) are leading to conformity of thought (limiting the generation of new ideas)," the source said in an email. "SF is still important but the most exciting future tech developments may come outside of it. Peter also thinks the Valley has become too mono-cultural and the cost of living is making the whole area more sclerotic, less vital."
The source would not provide any further detail on the new media endeavor Thiel plans to work on in Los Angeles, nor any of the other business opportunities he plans to pursue. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 2 |
BkiUeDTxK7IABLfxIZiy | Supreme Court's Campaign Finance Ruling Makes It Easier than Ever to Invest in America
Posted by BC Bass on Wednesday, April 02, 2014 in campaign finance citizens united money occupy wall street Politics republican party supreme court wealthy | Comments : 0
SAN NARCISO, Calif. (Bennington Vale Evening Transcript) -- In an historic 5 to 4 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday overturned a key provision of federal campaign finance law by relaxing limitations on individual contributions. Under the new rules, donors may give money to as many candidates, political parties and committees as they like. The justices also eliminated the cumulative caps of $48,600 to candidates and $74,600 to state and local committees during each term. Political watchdogs and advocates for campaign finance reform noted that under the new rules, or lack thereof, a donor with the financial means could contribute nearly $6 million to support every committee and every member of Congress belonging to his party of choice. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus praised the high court's ruling as a "long overdue move to make slogans like 'Invest in America' and 'Own a Piece of the American Dream' hard realities."
Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts opined that the "Buy America [sic]" decision better honors the spirit of the nation's founders than the current political system, which puts too much control in the hands of politicians. He also cited free speech as the underlying impetus for the ruling. Considering that corporations are now legally people, he offered, "money is their language. They can't talk; currency is their method of communication." Limiting the amount of money such an entity is permitted to spend on political causes runs the same legal risk as limiting an average person's speech.
"To continue imposing these restrictions is akin to telling a school teacher she can only instruct her class using a handful of words approved by Congress," Roberts said. "That is not the freedom our country's architects sacrificed their lives, liberty and honor to defend. It should be the right of the individual, not the mandate of elected officials, to determine how many candidates and parties to support."
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell lauded the decision as a triumph of democracy. Until today, regulations imposed an even playing field -- an ideology rooted in equality rather than freedom. McConnell called this the "stuff of communism. Why should the country's hardest working individuals be confined to contributing the same as its laziest?"
"If you're a wealthy American, that means you worked harder, longer and smarter than the person who's just scraping by," McConnell said. "And yet, our government forces you to spend your hard-earned money on those parasites. Well-to-do patriots must pay for the lazy man's health care, rent, food, safety and education. And those lazy people keep electing politicians who enable this behavior. Why shouldn't hard workers be able to donate as much money as they want to elect congressmen who will restore the country's freedom, not perpetuate more socialism? We're always telling people to buy American or invest in America. For the first time in my life, it's now practical to think that people I know could buy America."
High-earning Americans shouldn't have to squander the fruits of their labor in taxes to support those people unwilling to participate in the nation's prosperity, supporters of the decision proclaimed.
"Even IRS agents hate their jobs," McConnell added. "They're glorified collections people who don't believe in the socialism they're spreading. That's why suicide rates within the IRS outpace those of combat veterans and priests who have been forced to marry gay couples by the current administration."
Justice Antonin Scalia cited this landmark ruling as one of two contemporary political decisions made by SCOTUS to save the United States from lapsing into a socialist regime.
"Recall the Gore vs. Bush decision," Scalia said. "Al Gore was a liar and crook, but he had tenure and celebrity among stoners, queers and hippies, which gained him the popular vote. George Bush lost the popular vote because campaign finance limits prevented donors from helping him get his message out. Fortunately, the Supreme Court intervened to strike down that injustice. And with today's ruling, we continue to steer the country in the right direction by allowing dedicated Americans like the Koch Brothers to have a real voice in government...for decades to come."
"The entire democratic experiment inherent in the conception of this republic, as the Founding Fathers envisioned it, was predicated on the principle that a government for the many should dethrone the colonial precepts of a government for the few," Chief Justice Roberts wrote. "For too long, the voices of the many in America have been stifled or altogether silenced. We saw this most recently with the Occupy protests, in which the government turned a blind eye to a small rabble of unemployed, anti-American terrorists who, instead of contributing to the economy themselves by seeking jobs. effectively shut down commerce and the free market operation of the nation by attacking the many -- those citizens of many means, who earned their fortunes by working harder to keep America strong. Today, we are no longer perpetuating prohibitive contribution limits that prevent citizens from exerting their will; instead we are resuscitating the true spirit of democracy by freeing Americans to support as many senators and representatives as they wish. We have given them a voice. We have empowered them to buy a stake in America and to run a government by their [sic] people for their [sic] people."

BkiUbYXxK6nrxrSHdswl | The distribution of my Group 2 contribution to BAO Edition 4 is complete and copies are now in the hands (collections?) of those in my group.
41: It's beginning to hurt takes as its starting point the possibility that one of Sarah Bodman's stories has been recovered from its place of interment in a Danish forest and subsequently offered for sale by a London bookseller.
The work is housed in a simple drop side box and consists of a colophon, ephemera associated with the sale of the book and the book itself - much distressed with significant staining and water damage and evidence of insect attack.
For those who might be interested, more photographs and details can be found here.
The work is intended as a reflection on the hurt experienced by artists when their work is appropriated by others and used, often for profit, without consent and in a manner contrary to the artists' intentions.
Hello Terrence. You won't know who I am (Susan Bowers) but I have had the absolute pleasure of holding, unwrapping and pouring over your truly beautiful book - 41. It's Beginning to Hurt! My friend Fiona Dempster and I shared a day last week where we brought along various artist's book we own, we examined them closely and talked about them endlessly. Without a doubt your book is the one that entranced us both the most. I loved all the nuances in your gorgeously bound book - all the little pockets of information which added different dimensions to the book. Gives me goose bumps really and I am so envious of Fiona owning one of these books. At least I can visit it!
Hello Susan and welcome to BEMBindery. Delighted that you enjoyed the book. I'm about to start work on my second title for BAO Edition 4, which should be on its way to Fiona in a couple of months. | c4 | 4 | 2 | 4 | 1 |
BkiUcXDxK4tBVhat3JLT | With ever increasing obligations, estate agents know that compliance matters now more than ever.
However, being able to obtain access to the right expertise, knowledge, experience and services has not always been easy, but there is one firm that claims to provide the 'complete solution' for property professionals, and that is ETSOS, which offers an advanced technology search ordering platform for estate agents and conveyancers.
So this week we have decided to talk to the firm's director of agency services, Ben Robinson (below), to find out more about their service.
What is 'Compliance in a Box'?
In a nutshell, 'Compliance in a Box' ensures agents do not fall foul of their obligations under two key pieces of UK legislation; the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 and the Money Laundering Regulation 2007. Failure to fulfil their obligations under either can lead to significant fines and potential compensation.
With the ever increasing administration and regulatory burden on agents, how important is it to have a strategic partner who can help reduce this burden without increasing staff cost?
As estate agency grapples with increasing regulation it needs to ensure that it does not lose sight of what it is being paid to do...sell houses! In the same way a house seller is utilising the expertise of agents because they are not experts in selling houses, so should agents seek to build strategic partnerships with businesses who are expert in the things they are not.
What service does ETSOS provide that'll enable agents to focus on their core revenue generating activities?
All too often we allow mundane administrative tasks divert focus away from our core business activities. How many estate agents are paying valuers and negotiators for the time it takes to chase vendor documentation when they could using that time to chase up leads and winning more listings?
By removing the need for vendor ID in the vast majority of cases and moving checks online, agents can streamline this process and leave the business of selling houses to those in the business who specialise in it.
What is the importance of online from a compliance point of view?
Decisions from The Property Ombudsman – in the case of Consumer Protection Regulations (CPRs) - and HMRC – in the case of Money Laundering – focus on the agent's ability to document and evidence activity.
Compliance is not optional; our advice is to document and evidence activity to ensure you have the audit trail. Online presents a very simple way to order reports, evidence activity, create an audit trail and retain records for the requisite amount of time.
How can ETSOS help with consumer protection regulations?
CPRs have replaced the now repealed Properties Misdescriptions Act. This has signalled a significant shift away from the emphasis on the buyer to ask the right questions, to the requirement for the agent, and critically the vendor, to provide the right information up front.
The Property Ombudsman has now cited the CPRs in several decisions in which agents have either misled or failed to provide enough information to buyers.
With the NAEA we developed an online property information form which evidences that information has been requested and provided to buyers.
How can ETSOS help with anti money laundering checks?
The money laundering regulations require businesses to better understand the relationship they have with their customers and to this end Customer Due Diligence (CDD) must be proportionate to the risk posed.
So in most cases confirmation of the ownership of the property (Land Registry Title Register) and verification of the identity of the owners (electronic AML checks) are perfectly reasonable.
Deliberately evasive vendors, unusually hurried transaction and large cash deposits should raise alarm bells and further investigation should be undertaken.
You would expect ETSOS to favour electronic over traditional, paper checks as we believe they offer a number of benefits.
Firstly, they provide the business with a consistent approach, with no concerns about whether or not one person has a passport or not, or another has utility bills. Electronic checks can be done with some basic information.
Secondly, they will establish whether you are dealing with somebody on sanction lists or a politically exposed person (PEPs), you will struggle to do this without electronic checks.
Finally, all the records are retained indefinitely in secure storage, with no risk of loss, theft, fire, and so forth. We compare it to outsourcing tenant checks, or going from paper management to an online property management system.
What else should agents do to help their clients and how can ETSOS help?
Education, education, education…the CPRs place a legislative responsibility on vendors. Very few people will understand that when they come to list their property.
And while care has to be taken here, ultimately more information up front means better quality viewings with less chance of a fall through because all the questions have been answered before you go down the route of instructing the conveyance.
Compliance in a Box will help to uncover information, record it and provide agents with an audit trail to evidence their compliance activity.
What sort of guides and updates on regulation changes do ETSOS provide agents with?
Compliance in a Box clients have access to a range of resources all designed to keep agents up to date with the latest changes to the regulation that affects them.
Quite unusually, the Money Laundering regulations must be one of the only pieces of law in which training is legislated – not recommended, but mandated.
And as such punished financially when not adhered to which is why we saw the significant fines in 2014/15.
We regularly maintain an open dialogue with our clients about the compliance landscape with access to training, on and offline events and our Compliance Hotline.
And what does the future hold for ETSOS?
We are really excited about some of the developments we have in the pipeline. We are looking at the lifecycle of the transaction to see how else we can supports agents from a compliance point of view.
One of our key aims is to find ways of turning the sunken cost of compliance in to a potential revenue generator for the business; looking at using the information agents are capturing in order to comply with the CPRs to shorten the legal process and make property more appealing.
We have a compelling proposition for auction departments, offering them an additional revenue stream and helping them with their compliance obligations.
ETSOS has always been about making the lives of our user's easier and that ethos continues in the solutions we are developing. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 3 |

BkiUcyg5ixsDMQk3usJ_ | Psychologist Chicago: What is Unconditional Self-Acceptance?
Unconditional self-acceptance teaches us to accept all aspects ourselves because we are unique, and to be forgiving of ourselves because we are fallible. Practicing USA instead of relying on conditional self esteem increases our ability to rationally cope with adversity. If we base our self esteem on our ability to successfully achieve status, we will be unable to unconditionally accept ourselves.
It is important that we strive towards short- and long-term goals for growth and improvement if we value these things, but we run into the risk of engaging in self-condemnation when we demand that we must achieve these milestones, because otherwise we will not value ourselves nor will we feel valued by others. When we put conditions on our self-acceptance, we are likely setting ourselves up for failure. First, the conditions for self-acceptance may simply be unattainable, requiring time or skills or resources that are beyond our reach. In this case, if the conditions are not met, it becomes virtually impossible to accept ourselves. Secondly, let's say we set conditions for self-acceptance that are reasonably attainable, such as getting married, graduating from school, getting promoted at work, purchasing a home, or achieving other life milestones. The problem with this type of conditional self-acceptance is that it is unlikely that we will stop setting new conditions once the first ones are met. For instance, we may now demand another promotion, a higher pay rate, a larger home, or an advanced degree in order to accept ourselves.
Self-esteem is problematic since its measurements rely solely on our successes. We may feel good about ourselves when we perform well, but we will not always perform well. We will all fail and we will all underperform because we are human. It has happened before and is bound to happen again, (likely sooner rather than later). So when we fail or underperform, does this mean we are undeserving of feeling good about ourselves? Of course not, and unconditional self -acceptance rejects this notion.
Then there is the pratfall of comparing ourselves to others. Pretty much no matter what we achieve in our lives, there will always be someone who is doing better than us, and there will always be somebody doing worse. There is no benefit in rating ourselves compared to others since it only serves as an excuse to neglect our wants, or to give ourselves a pass in striving to do better. Comparison to others also conveniently ignores the subjectivity of our unique life experiences and circumstances, and also relies heavily on making assumptions about ourselves, others, and the world as a whole.
So let's aspire to only rate our actions, thoughts, and feelings, but not ourselves. We can learn to accept ourselves unconditionally because we are fallible and capable of making changes in thought and behavior at any time. We may strive to achieve certain milestones in our lives but we will stubbornly refuse to rate ourselves based on whether we accomplish them. Let's also resist the urge to view ourselves negatively based solely on the acceptance of other people. By practicing unconditional self-acceptance, we will significantly reduce the risk of turning our productive and rational desires into unproductive and irrational demands.

BkiUd3Y5qhLACGN8YpHD | De Schoolmeesterstraat in een straat in Amsterdam-West.
De straat is per raadsbesluit van 7 januari 1981 vernoemd naar Gerrit van de Linde, een 19e-eeuwse schrijver die het pseudoniem De Schoolmeester gebruikte. Meerdere straten in deze buurt zijn vernoemd naar schrijvers, maar dan wel bijna een eeuw eerder. De Kinkerbuurt waarin deze straat ligt, werd eind 19e eeuw ingericht. De toen gebouwde woningen in revolutiebouw voldeden in de jaren tachtig niet meer aan de eisen (sommige waren onbewoonbaar verklaard). Een deel van de wijk ging bloksgewijs tegen de vlakte. Niet alleen voldeden de woningen niet meer, ook het stratenpatroon met haar nauwe straatjes voldeed niet meer. Bij herinrichting van de wijk ontstond deze nieuwe straat.
De bebouwing dateert uit de periode 1983 toen hier druk gebouwd werd. De straat begint als dwarsstraat van de Borgerstraat en eindigt op de (Jacob van Lennep-)kade van het Jacob van Lennepkanaal. Daarbij valt op dat aan de oneven kant van de straat de straat begint met louter achtergevels van woningen die aan een hofje liggen.
Een gedicht van De Schoolmeester is te horen in het kunstwerk Muur van de dichters, geplaatst in de Nicolaas Beetsstraat.

(Received 16th January 1978 )
A computer program that uses on-line generated substructures of organic compounds as input and retrieves the corresponding distributions of 13C-n.m.r. chemical shifts is described and discussed. The procedure of creating the substructures and the main features of the retrieval philosophy are outlined. One search is worked out in detail to demonstrate the ability of the system.
The assigning of 13C-n.m.r. spectra, i.e. the identification of the chemical shifts with the appropriate carbon atoms in the chemical environment of the molecule, is a primary application of 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy. Usually this is done by empirical rules describing the influence of neighbors on the central atom in the fragment in question, and by inspecting the spectrum to see if it fits the proposed correlation. Several tables of shift assignments have been published [1--3] since 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy became recognized as a powerful tool for the elucidation of structures of organic compounds. Normally, such tables give only the upper and lower limit of the range in which the atom under consideration is expected to give a chemical shift. Such a description is far from complete because it provides no information as to whether the distribution of chemical shifts is uniform or centered in the given interval as a normal distribution.
It transpires that the distribution of the shifts in such an interval is not normal and is very dependent on the nature of neighbors more distant than the first and second neighbors, which are usually the only ones that are considered in the manual assembly of tables of this sort.
In this paper is described a complex computer program which provides an easier and deeper insight into the distribution of chemical shifts sampled from a fairly large data collection for any specific structural environment.
DATA BASE AND IMPLEMENTATION
The NIH-EPA-NIC 13C-n.m.r. collection [4] was used as the data base in this work. In addition to the 13C-n.m.r. data, this data base contains the Chemical Abstract Registry (CAS) number, the chemical name and molecular formula of the compound. There is also associated with each compound a picture of its structure in which the atoms have been numbered. A typical display of an entry from this data base, obtained with the standard retrieval system [5, 6], is shown in Fig. 1.
The assignments of the chemical shifts were entered manually, using the same numbering as in these structures, with a specially written on-line program. Currently, the data base contains 4,024 spectra, some 2,500 of which have been assigned. Further work with the program described here to add the missing assignments in the data base is in progress.
In order to permit the user to define a chemical fragment and conduct a substructure search for it, an additional file is necessary. This file contains the connection tables of all the compounds in the 13C-n.m.r. data base. The building of substructures (fragments) can be done by using the substructure program developed by Feldmann et al. [7]. The commands most frequently used in structure generation are listed in Table 1.
From the point of view of the assignment of 13C-n.m.r. spectra, a very important option within the Substructure Search System is the TERMA command which allows substituents to be defined precisely. The command TERMA 3,1 for example, sets to one the numbers of neighbors of the atom with the number "3" in the query structure. It is obvious that the atom "3", whatever it is, must therefore be the last one in the chain. Without the use of the command "TERMA 3,1", structures containing atom "3" bound to 2, 3 or even more atoms would also be retrieved. Thus for the accurate definition of larger structures, the TERMA command should be used for each atom. There are, of course, many other commands for the substructure generation [8] but these are less frequently used in the present application.
The link between the Substructure Search System and 13C-n.m.r. files was provided by a fast double-hashing algorithm with twin prime numbers NP and NP-2 [9] using the CAS Registry number (NUMRG) as input to obtain the proper key address, KEY, of the connection table or chemical shifts:
NP = 4723
KEY = MOD (NUMRG,NP) + 1
INC = MOD (NUMRG, NP-2) + 2
1 CONTINUE
KEY = KEY - INC
IF (KEY .LE. 0) KEY = KEY + NP
If the requested item has not
been found on the address KEY GO TO 1
Fig. 1. A typical display of the full information for the requested ID number.
There are 21 twin prime numbers between 4000 and 5000 and the choice of 4723 was made because it is expected that about 500 new spectra will soon be added to the current data base of 4,024 spectra. About 5% free space in the address table will still be available and so unsuccessful searches will be terminated relatively rapidly.
The flow chart of the full process is given in Fig. 2. The complete search is done in three steps. First, the substructure fragment has to be built up on-line, using commands such as those shown in Table 1. Secondly, the search through the connection tables is performed in order to obtain all compounds containing the described substructure together with the numbering of the atoms in the structure as it appears in the 13C-n.m.r. file. Thirdly, the chemical shifts of the retrieved compounds are inspected and those produced by the various atoms of the query structure are statistically interpreted and reported.
Because CAS defines in the connection tables nine different types of bonds (chain-single, chain-double, chain-triple, chain-tautomer, ring-single, ring-double, ring-triple, ring-tautomer, and ring-alternating), and there is a
great variety of construction commands, it is possible to build up any type of structural fragment. When the searching is complete, the output routines permit the inspection of the shift of any atom that was in the query structure. The retrieved shifts and histograms of their distributions can also be printed, as can the list of unassigned compounds containing the same structural fragment. These can be obtained on request if further assignments are planned. An example of fragment construction and the corresponding output possibilities is shown in Table 2.
Although the collection of 13C-n.m.r. data is relatively small, the amount of data to be searched is large, because the average connection table consists of a 10 x 3 matrix and on average, 7 chemical shifts/assignments per compound have to be inspected. Great care has to be taken to optimize the algorithms as well as the input/output operations, which use random access files. The program is written completely in DEC-10 FORTRAN and is incorporated in the 13C-n.m.r. Search System [4, 5] developed for the NIHEPA Chemical Information System [6], which runs on DEC-10 computers. The on-line handling of data enables the users to obtain the results very quickly. The commands in the Substructure Search System are largely self-explanatory and the system has many on-line HELP messages. As a result, the learning period for most new users is very short, and the program can be used efficiently after very few trials.
The first part of Table 2 shows the way in which query structures may be built. A structure can be added on the right of the Table for clarity: it appears in the actual on-line session only if requested by the option "D", for "display". The abbreviations TC and CS stand for "Tautomer.Chain" and "Chain Single", respectively. The correct mnemonics for bond types can be retrieved by typing "H" after the SBOND command. Both options FPROB (fragment probe) and SUBSS 1 (substructure search on file 1) are necessary to obtain the desired results from the files. In principle, the command SUBSS could be issued alone, without a previous FPROB, but it is very time-consuming because it conducts a bond-by-bond and atom-by-atom comparison for each structure. In practice, the System will not entertain a SUBSS command on the whole file; SUBSS can only be used with respect to a temporary file such as those that are generated by searches such as FPROB. Computer time is saved by prior use of the FPROB command. This causes the program to search for atom-centered fragments and forms a temporary (and smaller) file of candidates for SUBSS, whose work is thus reduced by at least one order of magnitude. After the substructure search has been done, the compounds found are stored in a permanent file that can be used after the user exits the substructure search.
The next step begins when the CNMR search program is called and SUB (substructure) option is chosen. The program asks the number of the atom sampling interval was used. The corresponding histograms of the three extended fragments containing the same central part, are shown. The contribution to the shift distribution of the specific subgroups in the first histogram becomes instantly apparent. The influence of the double bond between the first and second neighbors is responsible for the shifts in the region below 175 ppm, while the saturated carboxylic acids have shifts that, on average, are about 10 ppm lower downfield. It is also clear from these results that unless the distribution is really "gaussian-like", the standard deviations and upper or lower limits of the intervals are rather poor descriptors of the shifts. The difference in the number of compounds in the first histogram and the sum of those in the other three arises because all carboxylic acids, including those containing non-carbon atoms as the second neighbors, are considered in the first example, while in the other searches, only carbon is permitted as a substituent on the non-carboxyl carbon. It is noteworthy also that the substructure search has the command INCLA n, that makes it possible to define the possible alternative atoms to be considered as the neighbors on the same place. This command is very useful for further investigation of problems such as that in the example presented.
The most serious shortcoming of this system is related to the number of compounds in the file. At this stage, with about 4,000 spectra in hand, it is rather unrealistic to expect good results when more than second-order neighbors are included, although in some cases, such as the second example in Fig. 3, this might still be valuable. In any event, as the data base increases in size this shortcoming will become less apparent.

Brantley Gilbert's hard rocking country lands at Glen Helen Amphitheater on Saturday

One thing country star Brantley Gilbert promises when he releases a new album is he's not going to throw fans of his earlier albums for a loop.
"I want to avoid the situation where, you know there have been bands in the past – and you probably know this feeling, too – when you really fall in love with a band, and it's just you love them and you love an entire record that they do, and then they release another record and it's like 'What the hell happened?'" Gilbert said in a recent phone interview. "I want to avoid that. So we always want to keep that 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' thing going, and the people that started listening to us way back, I want them to have their thing on there regardless."
So yes, Gilbert's current album, "The Devil Don't Sleep," has plenty of the rough and ready hard rocking country songs that have become Gilbert's musical calling cards ("Bullet in a Bonfire," "It's About to Get Dirty" and "The Weekend" are prime examples) mixed in with a few tender but tough ballads ("In My Head" and "Three Feet of Water").
But if "The Devil Don't Sleep" seems like more of a good thing musically, it reflects major changes that occurred in Gilbert's life in the three years that followed the release of his previous album, "Just As I Am."
In 2011, Gilbert went through rehab to deal with a serious problem with alcohol and opiates. He dealt some with that struggle on his third album, "Just As I Am," and now the current album picks up the story of how, five years into being sober, he deals with the dangers of falling back into addiction.
"This one to me is more about moving forward, knowing that even though this has been a positive chapter and we're taking steps forward, I have to be conscious myself that we don't know what my devil is, but everybody has got a devil," Gilbert said. "I have to stay conscious that the devil don't sleep and temptation is always around the corner. It reminds me to live day by day and keep my head on a swivel. And 'Just As I Am' was more about what 'Just As I Am,' the song itself (was). That was really more about looking it in the face and going 'You know what, this has got to change.'"

HB 920: Understanding School Funding
No matter where you live in Ohio, regardless of whether or not you have children or whether or not they attend public schools, you will be asked to vote periodically on a local school levy. You might as well understand why.
House Bill 920, the Ohio law that outlines how public schools are funded, is complex and confusing. But it has a huge impact on all of us.
Public School Funding Primer
In each Ohio K-12 school district the public schools must place a ballot issue before the voters every several years to support public school education. Ohio citizens need to understand why these levy issues are repeatedly on the ballot. They also need to understand that the districts are not being spendthrifts nor are they necessarily wasting money. The Ohio state laws require these repeated ballot issues to fund public education.
History of Ohio Public School Funding
Public school funding in Ohio is financed from three main sources:
A small amount comes from the federal government;
The state gives each school district some money, and
The largest share comes from local sources in every district.
The most complicated is the state share. Primary and secondary education is one of the largest expenditures in the Ohio state legislative budget. A complex primer on the system of funding of Ohio's Public Education system would take too long but an overview of the public school funding scenario is necessary for understanding the continuing levy demands Ohio school boards must make on their residents.
BOE Officially Puts Operating Levy on November 2016 Ballot
June 10, 2016 -- At their June 7 meeting, the Cleveland Heights-University Heights Board of Education officially placed a 5.5-mill operating levy on the November 2016 ballot, after hearing the second of two required public readings of the levy resolution.
This levy is the smallest operating levy request for at least 20 years. In order to keep the levy request as small as possible, the district has consistently reduced expenses and sought to economize operations. In Fiscal Year 2016, the district made more than $5 million in annual budget cuts. Already in Fiscal Year 2017, the district has cut more than $3.25 million from its annual budget through staffing reductions.
The first reading of the levy resolution came at the Board's May 17 work session.
BOE Takes First Step Toward November 2016 Operating Levy
May 18, 2016 -- At its May 18 work session, the Cleveland Heights-University Heights Board of Education took the first steps toward placing an operating levy on the November 2016 ballot.
The levy proposed for this November would be 5.5 mills, which would produce approximately $5.8 million per year for school operations. This amount was reviewed and recommended by the Lay Finance Committee, a group of expert community members who reported their findings to the Board at Tuesday's meeting.
The proposed levy would be the district's smallest operating levy request in at least 20 years.

BkiUeDk25YjgKNDlWF4r | Йо́жеф Бо́жик (, венгерское произношение ; 28 ноября 1925, Будапешт — 31 мая 1978, Будапешт) — венгерский футболист, тренер. Выступал на позиции полузащитника. Провёл 101 матч за сборную Венгрии.
Биография
Клубная карьера
Йожеф Божик родился в Кишпеште, ныне один из районов Будапешта. Прозвище «Цуцу» он получил от своей бабушки, таким причмокивающим окриком будапештские извозчики подстёгивали лошадей, Божик любил издавать этот звук в игре. Он рос, играя в футбол на местном стадионе вместе со своим лучшим другом и соседом Ференцем Пушкашем. В 11 лет он привлек внимание «Кишпешта» и клуб взял его в молодёжную команду. В 1943 году он дебютировал в составе первой команды в матче против «Вашаша».
Карьера в сборной
За Венгрию он дебютировал в возрасте 22 лет в матче против Болгарии 17 августа 1947 года и сыграл за неё 101 матч и забил 11 мячей. Его последним голом был гол, забитый 18 апреля 1962 года в ворота Уругвая. Божик вместе со сборной одержал победу в футбольном турнире Олимпиада 1952 в Хельсинки и занял второе место на Чемпионате мира 1954 года.
Он также принимал участие в знаменитом матче на «Уэмбли» в 1953 году, в котором «золотая команда» Венгрии разгромила Англию со счётом 6:3, и в ответном матче в Будапеште, в котором англичане потерпели самое тяжёлое поражение в своей истории со счётом 7:1.
Стиль игры
В расцвете сил Божик считался одним из лучших атакующих полузащитников в мире. Он обладал отличной техникой, чутьем, игровым интеллектом, точностью передач и креативностью, хотя страдал от нехватки скорости. Он часто играл в качестве оттянутого вглубь диспетчера, где его игровые способности были также особо полезны.
Тренерская карьера
На протяжении своей карьеры Божик выиграл множество наград и даже был избран в действующий парламент. После выхода на пенсию он стал членом совета своего старого клуба «Гонведа». Он также руководил командой на протяжении 47 матчей в период с января 1966 года по сентябрь 1967 года, после чего вернулся к своей позиции в совете. В 1974 году он был назначен главным тренером сборной Венгрии, но по состоянию здоровья был вынужден уйти с поста вскоре после начала работы.
Семья
Сын Йожефа Божика — также стал футболистом и тренером. С марта по октябрь 2006 года был тренером сборной Венгрии по футболу в должности, которую в 1974 году занимал его отец. После трёх поражений в четырёх турах отборочного турнира Чемпионата Европы 2008 Петера Божика сменил , сын известного футболиста и тренера Паля Вархиди, который с 1954 года выступал в сборной Венгрии вместе с Йожефом Божиком.
Смерть
Йожеф Божик скончался в Будапеште в возрасте 52 лет от сердечной недостаточности. Он стал почётным гражданином Кишпешта посмертно.
Память
В 1986 году его именем был назван стадион ФК "Гонвед" в Будапеште.
В 2013 году стал почетным гражданином Будапешта.
Интересные факты
Ему, человеку безупречно отслужившему венгерскому футболу, предлагали написать книгу воспоминаний об Aranycsapat и положении дел в венгерском футбольном хозяйстве, ведь Божик часто выступал со статьями в "Кепеш спорт" и в футбольных кругах был в "авторитете". Он неизменно отказывался. В книге ведь пришлось бы замалчивать или принижать роль Ференца Пушкаша, а подлости по отношению к другу детства Эчи [детское имя Пушкаша] друг Цуцу допустить не мог. Книга так и не была написана.
Пушкаш после 25-летнего отсутствия приедет в Венгрию в 1981-м, через три года после смерти Божика.

BkiUdtPxK7FjYHGH0chu | Seriously, in this day of banned books and other nonsense my daughter and her friends started the Horror Club in their high school. They even found a teacher to be their sponsoring advisor.
The thing I like about Stephen King novels is the strong sense of good and evil. I also like the fact that his books make the banned book list almost every year. Banned books are good for the reading business. Who doesn't want to read a banned book?
Most banned books have a strong sense of wrong and right. Most are entertaining. Most are fun to read. So today make it a goal to read a banned book. Seriously – do it. You'll be glad you did.
Below is a list of banned books my kids have read. In many cases I've encouraged them to read the books. This list is taken from the top 10 banned books from the past 10 years.
If you've read ANY of these books you'll see how absolutely ridiculous the list is.
By the way, my husband offered to buy a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird for every kid in my daughter's English class. 38 copies. Money well spent if you ask me.
I have to admit that my goal as a writer is to one day have a book on the banned book list. Oh my goodness – can you imagine how sales would spike! Please ban my book!
Posters are being designed for the Horror Club. Everything looks good to me. I think they'll have a good turn out.

Handling a questionable contribution
A campaign is prohibited from knowingly accepting any contributions from prohibited sources. The treasurer of a political committee is responsible for examining all contributions to make sure they are not illegal (i.e., prohibited or excessive).
Screening contributions
When campaigns accept contributions from groups that are not political committees registered with the FEC (such as state PACs, unregistered local party committees or nonfederal campaigns), they must make sure that the funds are permissible under the Federal Election Campaign Act (the Act). This is important because campaign laws in some states permit nonfederal political groups to accept funds that would violate the limits and prohibitions of the Act. To avoid a possible violation of the Act, a campaign must be certain that an unregistered group making a contribution:
Can demonstrate through a reasonable accounting method that it has sufficient federally acceptable funds to cover the amount of the contribution or expenditure at the time it is made; or
Has established a separate account containing only funds permissible under the Act.
When itemizing such a contribution in its report, a campaign should note that the contribution contains only federally permissible funds. Contributions from such unregistered organizations are subject to contribution limits for individuals and other persons. These organizations should be aware, however, that making contributions to federal campaigns and political committees may trigger their own registration as a federal political committee. State political action committees sponsored by corporations, labor organizations or trade associations, in particular, must register as federal separate segregated funds within 10 days of the decision to make a contribution to a federal candidate. Additional requirements regarding their solicitations also apply. Contributions by other types of unregistered organizations (for example, local party organizations or committees not sponsored by an incorporated entity or labor organization) count against a $1,000 per year aggregate registration threshold.
How to handle a questionable contribution
If a committee receives a contribution of questionable legality, it must follow the procedures outlined in this section.
When receiving a contribution of questionable legality, a committee must, within 10 days of the treasurer's receipt, take one of two steps:
Return the contribution to the donor without depositing it; or
Deposit the contribution.
If it decides to deposit the questionable contribution, the committee must make sure that the funds are not spent because they may have to be refunded. To ensure this, the committee may either maintain sufficient funds in its regular campaign depository or establish a separate account used solely for the deposit of possibly illegal contributions.
The committee must keep a written record noting the reason why a contribution may be prohibited and must include this information when reporting the receipt of the contribution.
Within these 30 days, the committee must either:
Confirm the legality of the contribution; or
Refund the contribution.
Prohibited contributions discovered late
If a committee deposits a contribution that appears to be legal and later discovers that it is prohibited (based on new information not available when the contribution was deposited), the committee must disgorge the contribution within 30 days of making the discovery. This situation might arise, for example, if the committee learned that a past contributor was a foreign national or had a contract with the federal government. As another example, the committee might find out that a corporation reimbursed employees for their contributions to the committee (and had thus made corporate contributions and contributions in the name of another).
If the committee does not have sufficient funds to disgorge the contribution when the illegality is discovered, the committee must use the next funds it receives.
Contributor known
If the identity of the original contributor is known, the committee must refund the funds to the source of the original contribution. Alternatively, the committee may pay the funds to the U.S. Treasury. To do so, send the funds to:
Bureau of the Fiscal Service
Parkersburg, WV 26106-1328
Attn: Agency Cash Branch, Avery 3G
The committee should include a cover letter that explains that the funds being sent represent potential violations of the Act and requests that the funds be placed in the "general fund account."
Contributor unknown
If, however, the identity of the original contributor cannot be determined or is in question, the committee may disburse the funds to a governmental entity (federal, state or local), or to a qualified charitable organization described in 26 U.S.C. § 170(c).
In-kind contributions
If the prohibited contribution was an in-kind contribution, the committee should disgorge an amount equal to the value of the contribution to the appropriate party.

Welcome To World Cup Wines
World Cup Wines looks at some of the most popular wine producing nations, all of which are involved in World Cup sporting events.
We aim to provide an overview of current World Cup events in the sports sector, as well give advice on the ideal bottle of wine to accompany you whilst you celebrate.
You can choose from an eclectic range of wines from Australian white wines and French red wines, to Italian and Spanish red wine. No matter what the occasion is, you can never beat celebrating with a glass of your favourite wine to kick start the celebrations.
Keep up to date with the latest news here at World Cup Wines, for the latest updates on sporting events, results and also new launches of various wines.
Below are previous events World Cup Wines have covered, including:
France celebrated their victory at the FIFA World Cup 2018 against Croatia, with a staggering 4-2 win. England inspired the United Kingdom as they reached the semi-final and looked likely to bring home the trophy, but were unfortunately defeated by Belgium 2-0. However, France's victory is more than enough reason to try some truly delicious French wines!
One of the Grand Slam Tournaments, hosted in Melbourne Park, The Australian Open 2017 was absolutely fantastic! Roger Federer successfully defended his title for the Men's Singles, defeating Marin Cilic. Australian wines are considered some of the most delicious wines available to consumers, so why not try a glass!
Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil 2016
What an Olympic Games that was! Gold medals galore from the US, UK, and China. I don't think we need excuses to dabble in new wines but why not try some Argentinian wines, only a stone's throw (give or take) from Brazil!
World Cup Rugby 2015
New Zealand celebrate victory as they are crowned winners of the Rugby World Cup 2015. This year's World Cup event is going to be remembered as one of the biggest tournaments to date, as England 2015 has been the most interactive, socially-engaged and competitive World Cups yet! Celebrate their victory with a bottle, or two, from our selective range of New Zealand white wines.
Germany wins! After a poor showing from many favourites at this year's World Cup, the deserving winner of Germany had their hands on the cup itself, following a narrow victory over Argentina. Send your commiserations with a bottle by choosing from a wide range of Argentinian red wines.
World Games 2012
Usain Bolt makes athletic history! A stellar game for running supremo Bolt, but Team USA also enjoyed a great Olympics with 104 medals in total. Toast them with some superb Californian white wine.
Congratulations to the New Zealand team on their victory in the 2011 World Cup Rugby Final! Why not celebrate their success with a glass of New Zealand red wines.
World Cup Football 2010
The Spanish Team come up on top! You can celebrate their victory by sampling and enjoying some of the very best value Spanish red wine.

BkiUbAc5qhLAB-QFuLGl | Ignition interlock devices are one the newest ways to cut down on the number of people who drink and then drive.
But how do ignition interlock systems work?
First, the device is installed in the vehicle (typically in the glove compartment on the passenger's side). It is then hard wired to the engine's ignition system.
When you are ready to drive the vehicle, you will have to blow approximately 1.5 liters of air into a handheld alcohol sensor unit. This unit is normally located on the vehicle's dashboard. If your breath alcohol content is over a preset limit, the device will not allow the car to start. These preset limits from state to state, but typically are in the range of .02% to .04%.
Some ignition interlock devices are also designed to give "rolling tests." These are tests that take place once driving has begun. The tests occur at random intervals, from about 5 minutes to 30 minutes after the car has started. These tests are designed to keep the driver from having a sober friend blow into the ignition interlock device. It also prevents the driver from drinking alcoholic beverages once the car has been started.
If the driver fails to provide a breath sample or had a BAC level over the preset amount during one of these rolling tests, the ignition interlock device will issue a warning and an alarm will go off. These alarms can consist of the horn honking or lights being flashed on and off until the ignition is turned off. However, the ignition will not automatically shut down while the car is being driven.
The ignition interlock devices contain a computer chip that records your BAC content when you take the breath tests. If your BAC is over a certain limit, either when trying to start the car or during one of the rolling tests, this report can be downloaded and provided to law enforcement or the court. The reports will also note if the device has been tampered with.
Monthly maintenance is performed on the ignition interlock device. This consists of downloading the data logs from the tests and checking to see if the device was tampered with. All pass/fail results must be maintained. The data logs will also show whether the driver failed to submit to a random or rolling test. | c4 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 2 |

Pikes Opens With New Look And Classic Mischief
Words: Olivia Ebeling
Images: La Skimal
Pikes Hotel has gained the kind of legendary status throughout its decade-spanning tenure – both on the island and off – that can be rivalled by few, and actually, the only other venue that springs to mind that boasts an equally illustrious and star-studded history would be Studio 54, perhaps. A wonderland of quirky charm, a secluded haven for the A-List and a simply extraordinary home to all things fun and mischievous, the boutique hotel has captured the hearts of island residents and visitors to Ibiza alike, ensuring that its opening party is one of the hottest tickets in town each year.
This year was no different, with a long queue of cars winding its way up the dirt track that leads to the sprawling finca tucked away in the hills outside of San Antonio. Offering one of the most wonderful day to night experiences on the island, the first Pikes fiesta of 2017 started with drinks by the world-famous swimming pool, which once saw Wham's George Michael and Andrew frolick in its azure waters in the Club Tropicana video. Pikes founder and Ibiza icon Tony was mingling with the guests, still proud as ever to welcome friends, family and holidaymakers to the institution he created. Spanish guitar maestro Paco Fernandez wowed the audience with his energetic and passionate flamenco show, a truly authentic and rousing rendition that got us in the mood to dance the night away.
Foodies had the chance to get a first taste of Room 39's new menu for the season, and many took the opportunity to dine in the charming courtyard and sample both the fantastic flavours and atmosphere. Others mingled in the courtyard at the back, enjoying the festival atmosphere and catching up over drinks. For island residents, there was many a familiar face in the crowd, giving the event a real sense of homecoming and, as always, the much beloved house party vibe Pikes is famous for. At midnight, and accompanied by a huge sense of occasion, finally the doors opened to the newly revamped Freddie's Suite, the legendary Queen frontman's former home on the White Isle and now a legendary party destination. The intimate space had been given a bit of a cosmetic makeover, as well as being kitted out with a brand new sound system and lights, making it more spacious, immersive and trippy than ever before.
Pikes is never short of an amazing line-up, and for the opening night turntable masters including the Melon Bomb crew, Rock Nights, Justin Harris, Brothers Grim, Harley Maxwell, David Phillips, Andy Wilson, Adam Daniels, and Blonde Wearing Black were all taking a turn in the booth. The sound of Pikes is truly eclectic, so there is no point in trying to define the master mixers' sets by genre, as it can jump from funky vocal house to deep techno beats at the drop of a hat. Justin Harris had the honour of christening the freshly made-over party space, creating an upbeat and energetic atmosphere.
In between sets, operatic drag queen Tom as The Fat Lady Sings caused plenty of goose bumps and hands-in –the-air moments with his powerful and emotional arias, before announcing the next DJ. An amazing treat for the opening night, electronic music pioneer Artwork wowed the crowd with an irresistibly infectious set that seduced us with deep bass lines and uplifting melodies spanning eras and genres in an effortless manner. As always, we ended up staying much later than intended, and, after much merriment and mischief, found ourselves stumbling out of Pikes as the sun came up. Like the true classic it is, the legendary destination just keeps getting better each year… | commoncrawl | 4 | 1 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUdY45qsJBjrwPn4Hf | as he then continues to unravel the nitty gritty details, and more, reciting Jay Carney's official clarification to the American people via the press corps briefing; he was speaking on behalf of the president, on board Air Force One...bear in mind, everyone was en-route to Vegas for that campaign gaffe. Calling it that, considering nobody in the press seemed to be all that affected by the rush to stump in the midst of the chaos on the day. But be that as it may.
The President continues, "There's a broader lesson to be learned here, and Governor Romney seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later. And as President, one of the things I've learned is you can't do that, that it's important for you to make sure that the statements you make are backed up by the facts, and that you've thought through the ramifications before you make them."
we believe in the First Amendment.
that I'm sworn to uphold."
On the other hand, no I'm not. When he says "And I do HAVE to say" -- it's not that he really wants to at this time, but it's expected of him; and when he says "more broadly, we believe in the First Amendment" -- you know, it's generally speaking; and when he adds "that I'm sworn to uphold" -- but it's begrudgingly really, for he's studied it, he knows it, and in the end, he doesn't like it nor respects it.
"it's important for you to make sure that the statements you make are backed up by the facts, and that you've thought through the ramifications before you make them."
When these remarks and reality meet and placed further into context -- considering the facts and all -- what happened in the Middle East was expected. Intelligence reports were crystal clear. The facts tells us that the State Department, the Embassy's in Libya and Egypt, and even the office of the president, were all well aware of the possibility of an uprising 48 hours before the outbreak on the anniversary of September 11th. These attacks were coordinated and planned and this administration knew it was coming.
So if we knew something was coming -- just how come we were not better prepared? How could this slip by you, considering your level of intelligence and information available to you? But seriously, just why were our Marine guards carrying guns with no ammo? but we digress.
Like when you immediately lambasted the Boston Police Department for acting stupidly?
Like when you had to walk back and clarify remarks made regarding "the wisdom" of building a mosque a half block from the World Trade Center?
Like when you said, in the last campaign, first thing you were going to do, as president, is close Gitmo? The facts back behind Gitmo made that a little difficult, now didn't it?
Like even after compiling all the facts, you still call something - something contrary to what it is. Like when your administration considers the Fort Hood attack an act of "workplace violence", not an act of terrorism?
Like when you said, "you didn't build that" or "if you got a business, you didn't get there on your own"?
...And, Mr. President, can you just imagine the ramifications if Romney called you UN-patriotic?
How about when you said that Romney "seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later."
Isn't that a wee bit inappropriate, you know, given that Americans, at American Embassies throughout the Middle East, are under attack and on fire as we speak -- still -- and on it's fourth day? Where's your sensitivity? Do you regret saying that?
Like, what, you don't know? the Muslim Brotherhood is cleaning our clocks here, there, and everywhere, and you don't know?...the Muslim Brotherhood wants to wipe Israel off the map, and you don't know? All the facts are in. Or did you just shoot without taking aim first? Did you respond to that question too soon? Cause this response sounds weak, at best, before easily deteriorating into wishy-washy.
The thing is: the president's remarks are hardly a plug for embracing free speech -- but more of censorship; what's more, in full context -- make no mistake -- the words hardly sound like a president caving to his opponent. It's a nice thought, but more wishful thinking.
I heard an interesting analogy on the radio yesterday - - think it was during the Sean Hannity show -- from a caller referring to our foreign policy coming out of the "Timothy Treadwell" philosophy. Basically, and summarizing, that if we sit with that which is perceived as the enemy, try to make nice long enough, we can all live happily ever after together...out of mutual respect, or something like that. But in reality, after something like thirteen summers, Treadwell, along side his girlfriend, were found mauled to death.
"Timothy Treadwell's problem was that he saw wild nature as essentially friendly; Herzog sees it as essentially hostile. Where Treadwell saw the signs of personality in the eyes of the bears, Herzog sees "only the overwhelming blank stare ... [and] a half-bored interest in food." It's a bleak vision, pitting Treadwell's American optimism against Herzog's Germanic pessimism, and sometimes during Grizzly Man you catch yourself wanting to believe in the former: those bears can seem awfully cute. But then you remember how fast they can run, and how they can smell their next meal from nine miles away, and at this point British pragmatism kicks in."
Let's make time for one more plug; from the German Press Review: and yes, I picked what fit.
"US President Barack Obama's Middle East policy is in ruins. Like no president before him, he tried to win over the Arab world. After some initial hesitation, he came out clearly on the side of the democratic revolutions. … In this context, he must accept the fact that he has snubbed old close allies such as Israel, Saudi Arabia and the Egyptian military. And now parts of the freed societies are turning against the country which helped bring them into being. Anti-Americanism in the Arab world has even increased to levels greater than in the Bush era. It's a bitter outcome for Obama."
Obama, the antagonist, "caves" to Romney, the pragmatist.
There is no common ground living by their rules.
and that's only on a good day.
I know the day got long winded, but we got a long way to go...and not apologizing for it whatsoever.
But understand this -- jimmy carter was up six points in september, increasing to an even greater lead in october -- only to have Reagan win in a landslide in november. thank you, media.

BkiUc7jxaKgT0hdL9Nn3 | El Niño-Southern oscillation variability from the late cretaceous marca shale of California
By: Andrew Davies, Alan E.S. Kemp, Graham P. Weedon, and John A. Barron
https://doi.org/10.1130/G32329.1
Changes in the possible behavior of El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) with global warming have provoked interest in records of ENSO from past "greenhouse" climate states. The latest Cretaceous laminated Marca Shale of California permits a seasonal-scale reconstruction of water column flux events and hence interannual paleoclimate variability. The annual flux cycle resembles that of the modern Gulf of California with diatoms characteristic of spring upwelling blooms followed by silt and clay, and is consistent with the existence of a paleo–North American Monsoon that brought input of terrigenous sediment during summer storms and precipitation runoff. Variation is also indicated in the extent of water column oxygenation by differences in lamina preservation. Time series analysis of interannual variability in terrigenous sediment and diatom flux and in the degree of bioturbation indicates strong periodicities in the quasi-biennial (2.1–2.8 yr) and low-frequency (4.1–6.3 yr) bands both characteristic of ENSO forcing, as well as decadal frequencies. This evidence for robust Late Cretaceous ENSO variability does not support the theory of a "permanent El Niño," in the sense of a continual El Niño–like state, in periods of warmer climate.

BkiUf_XxK0zjCsHedap1 | Q: Coupling values on columns I've a spreadsheet with values in several columns like this scheme
value1 value2 value3
And I'd like to couple every value with each other like this scheme:
value1 value2
value1 value3
value2 value3
Is there any excel funtion or python code or OpenRefine function that does this task?
A: In OpenRefine you can do this in three steps.
First get all the values into a single cell with a separator between each value that isn't used in any of the text:
From the dropdown menu in one of the Columns choose menu "Edit Column->Add column based on this column"
Use the GREL:
forEach(row.columnNames,cn,cells[cn].value).join("|")
You should have a new column containing the values all joined together in a single cell:
value1|value2|value3
Now create the combinations of the terms - from the dropdown menu on your new column choose menu "Edit Cells->Transform..."
Use the GREL:
forEachIndex(value.split("|"),i,v,forRange(i+1,value.split("|").length(),1,j,v.trim() + "," + value.split("|")[j].trim()).join("|")).join("|")
This should give you a list of the combinations with the values separated by commas and the combinations separated by the pipe character (feel free to substitute other join characters in the GREL above for different separators):
value1,value2|value1,value3|value2,value3|
Then finally on the same column use the menu item "Edit cells->Split multi-valued cells..." specifying the pipe '|' character as the separator. You'll now have a column which contains each of the combinations:
value1,value2
value1,value3

BkiUdu84eILhQJztnwhk | This Project is only for highly skilled and talented developers. This is Stage one of a multi stage development project We require a site built from the ground up we, do not want to use Wordpress Joomla or any other CMS.
To be awarded stage one of the project you must be able to construct a complex database and back end code the site to a high standard. All code must be well structured and easy to read. We are happy to have the site constructed using a framework but you must be able to show that you are an expert with the framework. We will use multiple milestones for the project to ensure each stage is complete before moving on to the next.
The site will require a tripadvisor style user and administration platform that will allow users to review, Businesses to reply and also full administration features for management of the site.
Stage 1 of the project will not include UX/UI as this will be part of later stages of the project.
For this stage we are only looking for backend code and database. To be able to receive a complete payment you will need to deliver a usable example that will be tested for functionality. The site must be designed to handle a high volume of traffic. You must be prepared to sign an NDA to be awarded the project. Full details will be given to a shortlist of Freelancers that we will then Choose who we use.
If you have read the whole description please start your bid with the word "Kythan" The site will include but is not limited to -A usable admin interface that will be able to run reporting tasks. -User Accounts including customers, businesses and administrators -Highly functional search facility -Provision for bulk upload of CSV data to create user accounts. -The Ability for Customers to Lodge reviews and ratings, Business to respond and reply and for administrators to be able to moderate.
We have a very clear vision of what we want to achieve and will not make progress payments until we are 100% satisfied with the progress.
It's definitely a struggle to find quality developers on Freelance markets. That's partially due to the pool of freelancers and partly due to the type of projects that are posted here - they encourage the fly-by-night freelancers who have no commercial or enterprise experience (usually limited to building a contact form on a micro/small business website)., usually claiming to be a "small business", or "boutique agency" when in reality it's just one self-taught person who built a few information websites in Wordpress.
Another key problem to the delivery of projects here is that everyone is a "jack of all trades". In this industry it's just not possible to be a high quality graphic designer for creating the visual design of the website, while also being an expert Front-End Developer who's able to implement those visual designs - and also maintaining a specialisation in Back-End Development across the myriad of web frameworks. Anyone who claims they can do all three is kidding themselves and will always deliver subpar work.
My name's Matt. I've been coding as long as I can remember (over 16 years?). 6 years ago I started a web design company. 3 years ago I closed that down to work at Collabforge as the Technology Lead, delivering enterprise-grade web applications and web platforms for Federal Government (as well as not-for-profits, State, Local, Government-funded organisations, and of course the private sector). I consider myself highly skilled, abreast of all the latest IT trends and more.
Right now I'm doing freelance work after-hours and on weekends, for two reasons. One, my day job demands I focus on IT strategy, product development, sales, project management, team management and more - I love coding, and I want to get back to that in my free time. Two, I enjoy working on mentally stimulating projects and choose my projects carefully (I often turn away simple small business website development jobs, opting for web applications and web platforms which - to me - are a joy to work on).
The real selling point for me, though, is that you're going to get an agency-quality service. My life partner happens to be a senior front-end developer by trade, and I am (by trade) a senior back-end developer. We also work with a couple of very, very skilled and well-known graphic designers to deliver epic quality for our clients. You're getting an agency-like service for half, or less, of the cost. The only caveat - which I'll leave you to consider - is that we're instead doing the work on weeknights and full-time on weekends (for large projects we'll reduce our days at work to help you out). For this project, maybe it will just be me (mostly) working but it's good to know we can offer the full suite.
Anyway - I've probably bored you enough! Let me know if you're interested and I'm happy to send through some relevant client examples as well as discuss timeframes and budget.
I am Maddy from Xtreme Soft Solutions, a boutique digital agency based here in Melbourne. We are a group of highly experienced professionals in custom designed / developed web applications with complex functional requirements to meet high volumes of traffic.
We primarily use Zend Framework / PHP for back-end development and Angular.js for front-end work. Happy to sign an NDA before we start discussing about your project requirements.
We would be able to provide you with either a fixed / hourly bid upon discussing and finalising the scope of the project.
Hey there Nathan. Reading through your description I would be happy to quote you and build your application. Having many years of experience building PHP applications we have developed core libraries and used many well supported frameworks to build very robust and reliable applications.
We are midway through a SAAS project at present, which builds upon a multistage development timeline. We are experienced in many aspects of the development timeline and use some great features to stage and develop key components of projects. We have experience in using Git to house repository code for clients. This allows multiple stages of development to key performance indicators.
If you have more questions please feel free to contact us to discuss more. We are more than happy to sign a NDA and be part of the development cycle.
I am a local Australian freelancer who specialises in ASP.NET MVC web application development and have created many solutions like the one you require. I have architected highly scalable systems, I single-handedly built a web system for an ASX listed company that now has 700k subscribers - see my portfolio. I am currently employed as the company's software development manager.
The scope your project covers is part of my everyday role at work.
I would be happy to sign an NDA and to provide examples of similar applications I have developed. Happy to produce a prototype if you like. Once I get a better understanding of your full scope of work, I am more than happy to provide you with a more accurate estimate in terms of cost.
I specialise in ASP.NET MVC application development and have created several solutions like the one you require, using design patterns providing well-structured and easy to maintain architecture such as generic repositories, unit of work and services, together with database development using Entity Framework and Migrations. I have experience in providing numerous levels of application security through user roles, defensive programming techniques and appropriate client and server-side validation and develop with performance and scalability in mind using optimised data-retrieval and caching strategies. I have integrated both MVC and WebAPI backends with AngularJS frontends and have worked with CSV data on numerous occasions.
I would be happy to sign an NDA and to provide examples of similar applications I have developed or produce a small proof-of-concept. I am also happy to provide a fixed estimate for this and further stages of the project once further information has been provided.
Kythan. This (a proof of reading the description) is a smart idea!!!
I have more than 20 years of experience, most of which are related to databases and analytics. Recently, I started working in some entrepreneurial projects. I will be more than happy to work with you in achieving your business goals. Because of other commitments, I can invest around 20 hours a week on your project.
Please, check my linkedin profile and the following 2 websites, which focus on handling data.
Obviously, the estimated number of hours is arbitrary.
I have read your job description and I am confident on my skills to provide you the web application as per your requirement. We have already developed many Australian Enterprise apps (signed NDA) that manage bulk data API's. We have also developedmany SMS Portals that send hundreds of requests.
Few questions: You have not clearly define the scope of work and without scope its not possible for us to give you exact quote and time to build the backend and database.
For CMSyou mentioned that you dont want Wordpress or Joomla. For a custom CMS do you prefer the app to be build in PHP or .Net or any other language?
We are a team of .net, PHP, and mobile developers, working from the past 8 years and developing and designing websites, mobile apps and softwares with success for our prestigious customers. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions and let me work for you to win your confidence on me.
Hi, Nathan! My team is perfectly able to develop your needs, since we have more than 10 years of experience in digital development. However, we see by your description that some details need to be clarified in order to create a correct alignment of expectations and delivery. Since you mentioned your focus only in backend, but being it a model which could be tested for functionality, we consider it actually a frontend material. Did you mean a browseable wireframe? Depending on the website's size, the complexity can reach unfeasible results, so this value of bid is just a reference, and we put ourselves totally available for more details if you're interested in working with us!
My name is Andrei Klubis. I have extensive hands on experience over 20 years in designing and delivering complex Internet and enterprise level solutions. I can design, code and support virtually any complexity system on budget and value. Please check my LinkedIn profile. I have a team of highly skilled Russian developers. I hope to hear from you soon.
Nathan, I have read your requirements and I can deliver the backend as per your requirements. Happy to sign NDA and get full details about the project and discuss the options for project delivery, milestones etc.
I am Jyoti Khanchandani, a MicroSoft Certified Professional Developer with more than 10 years of hands experience in MicroSoft technologies, specialising in MVC, ASP.NET, C#, AngularJS, KnockOut etc. I have used SQL server as backend.

BkiUf6nxK1ThhBMLi-gV | In a recent Reader?s Digest article, The Great Olive Oil Misconception, Dr. Ornish examines the healthfulness of olive oil vs. canola oil. Here is a summary of his findings.
Combining flavor needs and smoke point with nutritional attributes is important when choosing oils. This article compares key oils in today?s marketplace.
With March comes the month-long celebration of nutrition and dietitians in both the United States and Canada. Themes centered on taste, cooking and the enjoyment of food encourage people to give healthy eating a try!
Mediterranean diets supplemented with either extra-virgin olive oil or nuts may lead to a 28-30 percent risk reduction for cardiovascular events. | c4 | 5 | 2 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUaZE25V5hd-4271rR | Q: Error where no default constructor exists for a class I'm working on a program that is supposed to parse a command-line input, read an input text file, and then execute the sequence of steps specified from the test file.
After working on the tokenizer class for some time, I've hit a wall, namely an error, that I'm not really sure how to solve.
So, I have Tokenizer.h:
#ifndef _TOKENIZER_GUARD
#define _TOKENIZER_GUARD 1
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <climits>
#include <cfloat>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include "Token.h"
//
// A class to create a sequence of tokens from an input file stream.
//
class Tokenizer
{
public:
Tokenizer(const std::string&, std::ostream&);
Tokenizer(Tokenizer&); // Copy Constructor -I
virtual ~Tokenizer();
virtual int nextInt();
virtual bool hasNextInt() const;
virtual long nextLongInt();
virtual bool hasNextLongInt() const;
virtual float nextFloat();
virtual bool hasNextFloat() const;
virtual std::string next();
virtual bool hasNext() const;
Tokenizer& operator= (Tokenizer&); // overloaded equals operator
protected:
private:
Tokenizer();
std::ifstream stream;
std::ostream _os;
Token _token;
};
#endif
And Tokenizer.cpp:
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <climits>
#include <cfloat>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include "Tokenizer.h"
Tokenizer::Tokenizer()
{ //error occurs here
}
// Constructor
Tokenizer::Tokenizer(const std::string& s, std::ostream& o)
{ //error occurs here
stream.open(s);
std::string t;
getline(stream, t, ' ');
_token = Token(t);
}
// Copy Constructor
Tokenizer::Tokenizer(Tokenizer& t) :_token(t._token), stream(t.stream), _os(t._os)
{
}
// Destructor
Tokenizer::~Tokenizer()
{
stream.close();
}
// Saves current int to return, then moves _token to the next value
int Tokenizer::nextInt()
{
int temp = _token.toInteger();
std::string t;
getline(stream, t, ' ');
_token = Token(t);
return temp;
}
// Checks to see if there is a next value and if it is an int
bool Tokenizer::hasNextInt() const
{
return _token.isInteger() && hasNext();
}
// same as nextInt but long -I
long Tokenizer::nextLongInt()
{
long temp = _token.toLongInteger();
std::string t;
getline(stream, t, ' ');
_token = Token(t);
return temp;
}
// same as hasNextInt but Long
bool Tokenizer::hasNextLongInt() const
{
return _token.isLongInteger() && hasNext();
}
// same as nextInt but Float
float Tokenizer::nextFloat()
{
float temp = _token.toFloat();
std::string t;
getline(stream, t, ' ');
_token = Token(t);
return temp;
}
// same as hasNextInt but float
bool Tokenizer::hasNextFloat() const
{
return _token.isFloat() && hasNext();
}
//Returns the next token
std::string Tokenizer::next()
{
std::string temp = _token.get();
std::string t;
getline(stream, t, ' ');
_token = Token(t);
return temp;
}
//True when it is not the end of the file
bool Tokenizer::hasNext() const
{
return stream.eofbit != 1;
}
//Overloaded = operator
Tokenizer& Tokenizer::operator= (Tokenizer& t)
{
_token = t._token;
stream = t.stream;
_os = t._os; //error occurs here
}
I get the error
'std::basic_ostream>': no appropriate default >constructor available
for the constructor. Later, when I use 'stream = t.stream' and '_os = t._os' I get the error
function "std::basic_ostream<_Elem, _Traits>::operator=(const >std::basic_ostream<_Elem, _Traits>::_Myt &) [with _Elem=char, >_Traits=std::char_traits]" (declared at line 85 of >"x:\Visual\VC\include\ostream") cannot be referenced -- it is a deleted >function
I've been trying to find some sort of solution for the first error, but I don't understand what's causing it. Creating a copy constructor was suggested to me, but it doesn't seem to have fixed the issue. I've also included Token.h below.
#ifndef _TOKEN_GUARD
#define _TOKEN_GUARD 1
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <climits>
#include <cfloat>
//
// Token class
//
class Token
{
public:
Token(const std::string& t) : _token(t) { }
virtual std::string get() const { return _token; }
virtual long toLongInteger() const;
virtual bool isLongInteger() const;
virtual int toInteger() const; // for int and is int functions
virtual bool isInteger() const; //
virtual float toFloat() const;
virtual bool isFloat() const;
virtual bool isNonNumeric() const;
Token() : _token("") {}
std::string _token;
protected:
};
#endif
I apologize in advance if I'm being too vague or something along those lines. I'm more than happy to provide anything else needed (since I'm stuck at the moment).
A: The compiler error message is very clear. When you use:
Tokenizer::Tokenizer(const std::string& s, std::ostream& o)
{ //error occurs here
stream.open(s);
std::string t;
getline(stream, t, ' ');
_token = Token(t);
}
the member variable os_ is default constructed. Since there is no default constructor in std::ostream, os_ cannot be initialized.
I am guessing that you mean to initialize the member variable os_ with the input argument to the constructor of Tokenizer, like:
Tokenizer::Tokenizer(const std::string& s, std::ostream& o) : os_(o)
{
...
Even that won't work since std::ostream does not have a copy constructor. You'll need to change the member variable to a reference object.
std::ostream& os_;
Then, you can safely use:
Tokenizer::Tokenizer(const std::string& s, std::ostream& o) : os_(o)
{
...
You just have to make sure that the input argument, o, is not destroyed before the Tokenizer is destroyed. Otherwise, the Tokenizer object will be left with a dangling reference.

BkiUesM5qhLBeyJsOu97 | Nigeria: Houses bulldozed, hundreds made homeless in Lagos
25 Feb 2013, 12:00am
Amnesty International has urged the Nigerian authorities to immediately stop the forced eviction of hundreds of residents in the region as hundreds of homes are being demolished in the Oke Ilu-Eri area of Badia East n Lagos.
On Saturday, bulldozers entered the community of Oke Ilu-Eri and began demolishing houses. The Nigerian organisation, Social and Economic Rights Action Centre (SERAC) reported that at least 300 houses have been demolished so far with hundreds of people displaced and homeless.
SERAC said about 200 heavily armed police officers supervised the demolition and several residents who tried to resist the demolition were beaten up by the police.
No adequate notice was given to the residents of the community before the start of the demolition. Last Wednesday (20 Feb) a notice of eviction was reportedly given to the Baale (Yoruba word for traditional district head) of the community – just three days before the demolition started. SERAC has been working with the community's leaders to try to prevent the demolition since last Wednesday.
To date no compensation has been paid to residents; the people evicted have not been offered alternative housing and many people have been displaced. The demolished houses included both wooden and concrete structures. Some of the displaced residents owned their homes, while many were poor tenants.
Amnesty International's Deputy Africa Director Lucy Freeman said:
"The eviction of people from their homes without the appropriate legal and procedural safeguards, including prior and adequate consultation, adequate notice and the provision of adequate alternative housing constitute a forced eviction and is a gross violation of human rights including the right to adequate housing."
Amnesty is launching a rapid response to this illegal eviction with members globally targeting the Governor of Lagos State and alerting the World Bank to this situation. It is hoped that international pressure will halt the eviction immediately, that emergency shelter, food and services are provided for those affected and that the Lagos State engage in genuine consultation with the community. | commoncrawl | 5 | 1 | 5 | 2 |

Capcom: Street Fighter V Will Not Be Heading to Xbox One
Jon Ledford
Capcom confirmed that Street Fighter V is never heading to Xbox One. Our question is what about Super Street Fighter V: Turbo Championship Edition?
Representatives from the House of the Hadouken confirmed to GameSpot that Street Fighter V will never be hitting any other formats other than PlayStation 4 and PC, including any kind of future variations of the game. There has been much controversy surrounding major franchises choosing sides and upholding console exclusivity between PlayStation and Xbox. SFV joins Rise of the Tomb Raider in becoming a console exclusive. The difference here is that Tomb Raider 2 is only a timed exclusive for Xbox consoles, Street Fighter V is not.
As a fighting game enthusiast with my own Xbox One fight stick, I know this spells bad news for Microsoft's black box, but at least we have Killer Instinct, right? Ultra Street Fighter IV recently launched for PS4 and surprisingly missed the Xbox One, which should be a telltale sign about this exclusive partnership. Likewise, Sony is contributing a major upgrade to the Capcom Pro Tour and Capcom Cup's prize pool, which now sits at a hefty $500,000. This news shouldn't really be surprising anyone by now, as it has been pretty obvious that Sony and Capcom have been walking arm-in-arm about SFV.
"One comment we see a lot is that something like a Super Street Fighter 5 is going to come out on Xbox, but the reality is that this is a real partnership. We are console exclusive for this franchise for this numbered run," the Capcom spokesperson said. "We're not talking about how we're handling post-launch content, but I can say the relationship with Sony does open doors for things we haven't been able to do in the past. The relationship serves a gameplay and development purpose, and not just a marketing value."
There you have it, folks.

Italian Deputy PM Attempts Unification of European Alt-Right
April 17, 2019 April 17, 2019 Santiago Losada 0 Comments Europe, European Parliament, Italy, Matteo Salvini, Prime Minister
Santiago Losada
Shortly after political leaders in Europe met in Milan to pursuing forming an alliance of alternative right wing parties, Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini has expressed the hope that the newly united populist movement will become biggest party in the next European Parliament. Called "Towards a Europe with Common Sense," the alliance will fuse all of the Europe's right-wing populists into one single movement just ahead of European elections in May.
Salvini hopes that this alliance can form a majority bloc in the European Parliament, uniting other far-right parties that share the same objectives, ideals, and values. The primary aim of this bloc would be protect borders and national identities.
Another goal of the alliance is to receive greater support for Frontex, the European Union's border protection agency, by adding about 10,000 more people. To the right-wing parties, a stronger Frontex means stronger national security.
In the US, former Trump administration chief strategist Steve Bannon has been very vocal in his support for Salvini, believing he is the key to solving Europe's problems. A founding member of The Movement, a far-right organization that supports right- wing nationalist parties across Europe, Bannon's support has been instrumental in funding Salvini's party in Italy.
While Mr. Salvini has publicly kept his distance from Bannon in the past, he still uses Bannon's similar 'alt-right' rhetoric in many speeches. Additionally, in September Mr. Salvini met Mr. Bannon in Rome, where Bannon declared that Italy was an essential player in the global power struggle. Bloomberg reports that Bannon called Italy the 'center of the universe' during a press conference, highlighting Salvini's status as a global political figure and applauding his efforts to represent his mission for both Europe and his country.
According to CNN, Salvini's stance stems from his hardline approach to recent migration flows from North Africa into Italy. Back in June 2018, he fulfilled his promise of closing Italy's ports to rescue boats, and fought against German Chancellor Merkel's policy of redistributing refugees who enter Europe clandestinely.
Salvini has recently been promoting the potential right-wing alliance at press conferences across Italy, but with only seven weeks left until the European election, it still remains unclear if any of Europe's other nativist movements will join him. The Economist argues that other movements may see his "new European Dream" as more of an "Italian dream" than anything concrete.
With the European elections quickly approaching, populist parties in Europe are seizing the opportunity to expand their power across Europe. The New York Times reports that if "Towards a Europe with Common Sense" does gain seats in the European Parliament, it will form a new group called the "European Alliance of Peoples and Nations."
However, the future of this new alliance is still uncertain, as it is missing the support of several key players on the European political stage. The proposed project would benefit greatly from the support of right-wing Hungarian Fidesz party leader Victor Orban, who has yet to sign onto the agreement.
Likewise, many right-wing parties in Germany and Scandinavia oppose Salvini's movement because they still lean more towards free-market economies, and right-wing parties in France more protectionist in nature. In additional, parties in Poland does not share the warm relationship that Mr. Salvini and other populist parties have with Russia.
Even though these parties do share similarities when it comes to strong borders, anti-migrant policies, and a strong emphasis on traditional national identities, Europe's populists clearly disagree on many issues. Due to all of the uncertainty that continues to permeate this election cycle, it appears that the fate of Salvini's proposed movement is not yet set in stone.

BkiUe0PxK5YsWTJsQXm0 | SYDNEY & KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 22 2019 (IPS) - Despite all the evidence to the contrary, and substantial opposition from community groups, public-private partnerships (PPPs) are still being promoted to deliver sustainable development.
The government and hospital authority describe the staffing and supply shortages as 'hiccups' and 'teething problems'. But these are not trivial, often involving life and death issues. In one particular case, a new mother's life was put in danger after undergoing a caesarean section at the hospital. Her attending doctors and nurses had to frantically try to source blood and equipment to operate safely. Thankfully, that episode did not end in any tragedies.
The Australian doctors' union has warned the head of NSW Health that junior medical officers were required to do 'unsafe work hours'. For instance, one intern was assigned 60 patients while junior medical officers were expected to work up to six hours of overtime daily, usually unpaid. One doctor reported working 110 hours in a week.
This is not the only instance of healthcare PPPs going wrong. In the early 1990s, the NSW government opened the privately-operated Port Macquarie Base Hospital. The authorities announced savings by ignoring additional administrative and legal costs; it ended up costing about A$6 million more than a public hospital of an equivalent size. The Auditor-General's report concluded, "The government is, in effect, paying for the hospital twice and giving it away".
Yet, the 'teething problems' had not gone away 13 years after it was privatised by the Conservative Government. Before its 20-year contract period ended, the Labour Government felt compelled to buy back the hospital for A$80 million.
The Australian Productivity Commission's 2009 report found that, on average, the efficiency of public and private hospitals is similar nationwide. Public hospitals in NSW and Victoria were more efficient than their private counterparts by more than 3% and 4% respectively despite operating far more in rural areas (generally much more costly), and their high-cost responsibility to provide accident and emergency services. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 5 |

BkiUajU25V5hd-427_L5 | Thank you to all the businesses and employment providers for joining us for "Seeing The Future" on April 26. Paul Daugherty, The Cincinnati Enquirer's award-winning columnist and author of An Uncomplicated Life, shared stories about his daughter, Jillian, who has Down syndrome. Jillian works two jobs - one at Northern Kentucky University athletic department and another at a Loveland school as a teacher's assistant.
Paul and his wife, Kerry, spoke about how employers who have hired Jillian have been better for the experience because she's productive, creative and cares about her coworkers. He encouraged businesses to take a chance and hire someone with a developmental disability.
Also, thank you to Judge Joseph Kirby of the Warren County Probate Court and John Martin, director of the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities, for speaking to attendees.
After May 6 Marcia Storm will be a Squealer, joining the elite club of people who completed 10 full Flying Pig Marathons. These 26.2 miles mark her 15th year participating in the Flying Pig, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
"Every once in a while life happens, so I've missed five," said Storm, a pediatric occupational therapist for Hamilton County DD Services Early Intervention program. "I love the Pig because it's local and it's awesome. My sister comes down from Wisconsin and does it with me every year."
Storm, 60, didn't initially set out to become an endurance athlete. Her first marathon was in North Dakota in 1981 - and she finished dead last. "It was so embarrassing. They were taking the finish line down as I got there," she said.
Not long after that, she blew out her knee on a ski trip. The doctor told her she had to give up long-distance running - no more than three miles at a time. "I thought, 'I hate the first three miles,' so I stopped until the Flying Pig started in 1998. I just decided they could give me new knees."
She ran the Flying Pig's full and half marathons until 2013, when she was in a car accident that later resulted in spinal fusion surgery. "After my surgeries, I could barely walk to the mailbox, and my doctor told me I couldn't run at all," she said. "I was pretty upset about not being able to run. I joined Queen City Walkers so I would stop saying 'I'm just walking' and embrace it."
The walking group encouraged her, but a trip to Norway to visit her son made her reconsider her marathon career. Together, they hiked 13 miles through fjords and mountain passes. That trip also inspired a new hobby-backpacking-and gave her the courage to try another marathon. "I'm not fast, but I don't give up. I don't think it's hard-it's humbling to walk and not run at all-but I embrace it and keep moving forward," Storm said.
To date, she's completed 21 full marathons and 46 half marathons, traveling around the country to feed her passion. Her marathons have taken her to Chicago, Tucson, Memphis, Washington DC and many other cities. Her favorite marathon was in Anchorage, when two of her children and their fiancées signed up for the relay so they could run with her. Storm's new goal is to complete all the marathons in Ohio. Two weeks after the Flying Pig, she'll head up to Cleveland to compete.
"I love being out there with people of all abilities, all ages and all sizes. Everyone has the same goal of having fun and being fit," she said. "It's just really fun and a fun way to have different adventures. And I'm not going to lie, I love the bling of the medal."

BkiUavvxK7kjXIK5pUhv | On the morning after the presidential election, David Goodfriend was crushed. Dumbfounded. He sat in his Toyota Corolla in a parking lot next to a hiking trail in Bethesda, listening to talk radio, alone and inert, wondering where it all went wrong.
Why did my candidate lose?
What kind of America am I living in?
"When George W. Bush was re-elected, I thought, 'This is the end of the country as I know it,'" said Mr. Goodfriend, a Washington lawyer and former Clinton White House staffer. "Those of us who supported John Kerry just couldn't believe that more people supported Bush. We had one view of the Iraq War and the American economy and were convinced we were right – but Kerry lost.
Indeed. As conservatives mourn – and by mourn, we mean full-on, biblical wailing and teeth-gnashing, and that's just from Karl Rove – Republican nominee Mitt Romney's defeat in a contest most on the political right were convinced he would win, they can find consolation in the fact that liberal America has been through the same dark night of the partisan soul: the doubt and disbelief, the anger and finger-pointing, the fuming promises to move to Canada.
In fact, conservatives should do more than take solace in past liberal anguish – they should take notes. Because while some on the left aren't exactly sympathetic regarding the election's outcome, they do have empathy. And plenty of practical, hard-earned coping advice.
To wit: Democratic strategist and CNN contributor Paul Begala moved past Mr. Kerry's defeat by refocusing on the 2006 midterm elections, writing a self-critical book with fellow strategist James Carville and spending time coaching his children's Little League and basketball teams.
Like Mr. Goodfriend, David Quigg spent the day after the 2004 election in a daze. A 40-year-old photographer and political writer from Seattle, he recalled looking at his two children – one an infant, the other a toddler – and breaking down in tears.
In Arizona, a 28-year-old woman reportedly ran over her husband with her car because she thought he had contributed to Mr. Obama's re-election by not voting.
"The Republicans are convinced that the republic is dead," said Democratic strategist Jim Duffy. "Liberty is dead. The state is going to run our lives. No more entrepreneurs. No more free thought.
As Mr. Goodfriend points out, the United States has survived the Civil War, the Great Depression, Pearl Harbor and Watergate. Plus 10 seasons of "Two and a Half Men." No matter how disappointed conservatives feel following Mr. Obama's re-election, apocalyptic histrionics give the nation too little credit and Mr. Obama far too much – particularly when coming from otherwise vocal advocates of American exceptionalism.
Conservatives long have criticized liberals for being elitist, smug and out of touch, convinced that they are both smarter and morally superior to the very voters they're attempting to persuade.
In the wake of Mr. Romney's loss, the right would do well to avoid the same mistake.
It's tougher and more necessary to look in the mirror.
"After Bush won, the Democrats had to say that Kerry had some flaws as a candidate, the way Romney had some flaws," Mr. Goodfriend said. "They had to do some soul-searching when it came to why voters didn't trust them on some of the issues that carried the day, like national security.
In 2000, Pearl Jam singer Eddie Vedder and the late director Robert Altman both promised to vacate America if Mr. Bush won the presidency; eight years later, actor Stephen Baldwin promised to depart if Mr. Obama won the Democratic nomination; two years after that, radio host Rush Limbaugh said he would move to Costa Rica if Congress passed the Affordable Care Act.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, all of the above remained American citizens. Which is also why the 2007 film "Blue State" – a love story about a disaffected supporter of Mr. Kerry who disembarks to Canada following the 2004 election – is, in fact, fictional.
The problem for bag-packing conservatives, said humor writer and self-professed liberal Chuck Thompson, is that Canada is far too leftist to serve as an acceptable backup nation.
"That country is the Democratic Republic of the Congo," he said.
For his part, Mr. Thompson spent the day after the 2004 election at an Arizona resort, where he saw a group of Republicans – decked out in campaign gear – checking in at the front desk, talking and smiling and elated over Mr. Bush's victory.
Mr. Thompson wanted to hide. He wanted to head back to his room and pull a bedsheet over his head. He later attended an Inauguration Day protest in Washington. | c4 | 5 | 2 | 5 | 3 |
BkiUd0nxK4tBVhvvswUJ | Hugo Lloris, who was found guilty of drink and driving a couple of weeks ago has been fined £50,000 and banned for 20 months from driving.
The 31-year-old admitted making a "terrible error" when he was caught driving home following a night out with France team-mates on August 24.
Prosecutor Henry Fitch said police found Lloris in an unmarked vehicle driving at 15kmh in a 30kmh zone.
'Just 40 days later, he was arrested and experienced the indignity of being handcuffed and put in a police station overnight.
"I wish to apologise wholeheartedly to my family, the club, my teammates, the manager and all of the supporters", Lloris had earlier said in a statement. "I take full responsibility for my actions, and it is not the example I wish to set". There was vomit inside the auto and Lloris needed to be helped from the vehicle.
"He had booked a taxi but unfortunately the taxi cancelled at the last minute". I don't want to say more as I don't want to say anything more that will help no-one. The most important is that everyone can make a mistake and he is suffering a punishment and also a feeling that society translates to him. He blundered once in the final against Croatia but his team still prevailed 4-2.
Hugo Lloris arrives at Westminster Magistrates Court in London. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUfPQ5qhDCbXrR5N7K | When it comes to the things that can make or break an event, few are as crucial as the quality, flavor and look of the food and beverages you serve. A lot is riding on your choice of which catering service to hire, and if you think this choice actually isn't that crucial, look at it this way, incredible catering can save an event that's on the rocks, but bad catering will generally send visitors to the doors.
In addition, because catering is frequently the # 1 or # 2 line-item expense for most events, the catering service you pick is also a significant monetary decision and can influence how much money you have left over to spend on other areas depending on food expenses and quantities.
Include that catering services can differ dramatically in their rates and the types of meals and services they offer, and the process of selecting a catering service can figuratively and literally feel like you are comparing apples to oranges.
Of all the event and catering professionals we talked with, this turned up over and over and over again, generally because how responsive and interested a caterer is throughout your initial discussions is indicative of how they will perform throughout the length of their contract with you (and more on contracts later on).
A potential caterer needs to be discovering as much as they can about you in your first few conversations with them, so you need to expect them to be talking and asking questions about 20% of the time and you supplying responses and describing your requirements about 80% of the time.
So when interviewing your Doolandella catering services (and you ought to consult with at least 3 caterers for any event with a sensible budget plan), you have to be specific about the kind of event you are planning and the kind of food and/or presentation you are anticipating. Otherwise, you might end up picking a catering service who merely isn't a good suitable for the type or style of your event.
Practically every catering service has a standard menu or menus to pick from, and many do offer some level of built-in flexibility to adapt these menus to your specific needs by substituting particular items and/or personalizing others.
Nevertheless, the standout caterers will exceed standardized menu options and be willing to create amazing fare that matches even more particular theme and dietary needs.
Some people avoid asking to sample the specific items they want for their occasion because it appears like an inconvenience for the caterer, however it is standard to request for a sampling of what you are meaning to order before you sign on the dotted line.
In addition, you can request wine parings for these tastings if they are appropriate for your occasion (again, be prepared to pay a charge, it's a small cost to pay to ensure you pick the best caterer). And when you are sampling the food, also address how it exists, as any catering service who puts in the time to properly show a sample will most likely be most likely to make that kind of effort on your occasion day.
You might be in for a surprise if you hire a BARBEQUE take-out joint to cater an official ballroom fundraiser. Or if you choose a high-end business occasion caterer to serve a barn wedding event. Why? Due to the fact that these caterers may not be accustomed to preparing and serving food in such a setting.
Even more standard venues can also have restrictions that caterers need to follow, like particular setup standards or disposal limitations for waste food and water, so having a caterer that recognizes with a venue's guidelines can potentially save you great deals of inconvenience on occasion day.
The caterer's contract should plainly define exactly what food, drinks and services the caterer will be providing on the designated day( s). Moreover, it must safeguard you from non-performance as much as it secures the caterer from non-payment/default, so you may want to think about having a lawyer} look at it prior to you sign it.
Every detail should be consisted of in the contract, consisted of chosen menus, number of portions and/or people to be served, beverage/bar service details (if applicable) and all rates and additional services.
No caterer in Doolandella with a shred of dignity and scruples participates in a contract with plans to bail at the last minute, but you have to ensure there is a cancellation stipulation in your contract simply in case your catering service has to cancel.
Of course you will have to look into the caterers you are thinking about, and it's always good to begin online and check out sites.
However, do not stop there, as online reviews are not always trustworthy (and even genuine); for example, an excellent catering service might have had a few nightmare/hater clients who alter their scores, while a really mediocre catering service may have padded their online reviews. So see if you can find some previous customers of the caterers you are considering and connect to them.
Remarkably, for how long a catering business in Doolandella has actually stayed in business might not be as critical in selecting a great catering service as you might think. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 3 |

BkiUflm6NNjgBvv4RFKD | Q: How to get all roles list from Tomcat in Java EE application I have a Java EE application and I want get a list of all roles from Tomcat and show them in a combo box in my application. Tomcat is configured to read the users and roles from a database.
How can I do this?
A: As far as I know the enumeration of all existing roles is not part of the standardization - you can configure Tomcat with various realms - from a simple xml file to LDAP or various database integrations. Or a combination thereof. Or an SSO system.
For this reason, enumerating all different roles that might be available is a function that your user database of choice must provide.
Is it possible to get them? Yes. Can you get them "from Tomcat"? No. At least not in a simple and generic way. You'll have to know which exact realm has been configured and access its datastore. Some of the realms might even require a restart of tomcat in order to use changed data.

From the New York Times bestselling author and literary phenomenon V.C. Andrews (Flowers in the Attic, My Sweet Audrina) comes a shivery gothic tale of romance, class divisions, and the secrets that haunt families for generations. Ever since Fern could remember, she and her mother have lived as servants in Wyndemere House, the old gothic mansion of the Davenport family. She may have been a servant, but Fern developed a sweet friendship with Dr. Davenport's son, Ryder, and she was even allowed free range of the estate. But Dr. Davenport has remarried and his new wife has very different ideas about a servant's place. Now Fern and her mother are subject to cruel punishments, harsh conditions, and aren't even allowed to use the front door. Yet, for all her wrath, the cruel woman cannot break the mysterious bond between Ryder and Fern. And when Ryder invites Fern to join his friends at prom, there's nothing Mrs. Davenport can do to stop them nor can she continue to guard the secret that haunts the women of Wyndemere—but there's nothing she won't try. After all, reputation is everything.

BkiUddk5qoaAwdii6cxg | Thank you to everyone who has posted to this website, and especially to those who created it! I am so impressed with the strength of everyone. I was diagnosed in July 2006 with triple negative bc. I survived chemo and radiation and am now hoping that the cancer never returns. I've been kind of surprised how emotionally drained I am. Having this site to come to will be a BIG help. I've got 2 grandchildren on the way...one in Jan and one in Apr. Looking forward to spoiling them!
I was diagnosed in april with tnbc and have gone thru 4 treatments of ac and 4 treatments of taxol. I start radiation of monday for 6 1/2 weeks.
I am a newbie. Just diagonosed last week with triple negative. I am 29 with a 2 year old daughter and 10 year old stepson. I am going to get a MRI next week as well as meeting with the oncologist. Does anyone have any advice on what to ask or what to expect in the weeks to come? I have been searching through the internet on information and none of it is very uplifting. I am glad I found this site to help...Thanks in advance for any advice.
Hi Ladies, just found this site by accident when I was surfing the net for triple negative breast cancers.
I was diagnosed in Feb/04 with lft IDC, Stage 1, Grade 3, tumor 1.75 cm, 1 out 3 nodes (microscopic). I had a lumpdectomy & auxiliary lymph note disection. Completed 2 out 6 CEF (canadian standard). Developed capiliary leakage syndrome (Has anyone heard of this). Doctors told me I can never have chemo ever again. I was also told 2 cycles is like having no chemo at all. Completed 30 radiation & 6 boosts.
I was not aware that triple negative was worse that the other breast cancers. My oncologist gave me 92% stats. Now I am very concerned about Met or reocurrence.
Been having problems with blood in stool and abdominal pain. My General surgeon ordered gastroscopy and colonoscopy (to be done 2 days from now) and an abdominal CT (next week). My cancer doctor ordered bone scan because of debilitating back pain (this week).
I decided also to have both breasts removed to lessen chances of it developing again (hopefully op will happen this year).
Thanks in advance for any advise.
My name Is Sharon I'm 36 and was diagnosed 10/30/06. I'm a grade III invasive ductal carsinoma, triple negative. I've done 8 rounds of chemo ac/taxol, rt side masectomy with axillary node disection and 35 rounds of radiation. My path report after surgery showed that the cancer was gone and I was node negative. The chemo worked really good for me. (my tumor was rather large). Right now I'm on nothing my bloodwork in April was good and I go in for scans in November. I'm very optimistic. Any good advice on changing your diet. I love red meat and I have a very high fat diet. HELP..
I, too, accidentally found this site while surfing the Internet. I am so glad you all are here.
I'm BRCA 2+, triple negative. Had a lumpectomy with radiation in mid-2004. Found out my BRCA status in 2004 and chose to have a complete hysterectomy in November of 2004 and PBM with reconstruction in 2005.
Just recently found out my cancer has spread to my chest wall and lymph nodes behind my pectoral muscles. I just recently completed 33 radiation treatments with 3 chemo treatments (carboplatin) at the same time. I'll continue to have chemo (carboplatin) and Gemzar will be added at sometime in the future.
I hope I can contribute in some small way to this group and it is a pleasure to be a part of TNBC.
I can't believe I just found this. Rather by accident. I read the article in Oprah and tried looking up info but couldn't find anything. This morning I was skimming thru People ,a page with "pink items" and saw the name and tried again.
I was diagnosed in Feb. of 01 at the age of 45. 2cm invasive ductal carcinoma. grade3. Ihad a lumpectomy, 4 rnds of AC, radiation and was good to go. I didn't even hear the term Triple Negative until last year when someone I knew was dx with the same and practically the same pathology as well. Except her dr., had given her the more update version of difficulty, having this dx, along with her receiving 2x as much chemo as I had. I was a bit wigged by this new knowledge even though I felt I keep up all the time with what is going on with cancer updates. I have brought this up with my onc and surgeon and their attitude is "I am still here and doing fine". I guess that is true. Just hard to not flip when I read all this negativity. I thought I had come to terms with cancer until reading everything now coming out about tn.
Hopefully after reading all this I can find peace again...afterall...it has been 7 years and all seems fine. I did have genetic testing done, probably in 2003 and that was negative.
What a great website. Thank you all for your posts. Has anyone looked into getting onto the Combined Federal Campaign in order to receive donations? Another question, does anyone know if ER neg is the same as Triple Neg? Thanks to all.
Hi everyone, new to forum. DX in 2/07, 3 rounds of FEC, then 3 of Taxetere. Now almost done with 30 rads. Having a bad day today with all the negative news coming out about triple neg BC. I know all the prognosis' and thought I had dealt with them, but today it all came flooding back, when I read triple neg was considered the "deadliest" form of BC. I am 54, white. Lots of joint and leg pain, which onc seems surprised about, so does nothing. Sometimes unbearable. So great to find gals like me on here. Went to support group a few months ago, but no one had triple neg. Suffering terribly from neuropathy, also. Just thought I'd share.
Tnank you for creating this website. I had not idea untill yesterday there was this much information on the web about triple negative Breast cancer. I was diagnosed in feb 2004 cancer was 2.4 cms, stage 2, grade 3, 2 positive lymp nodes plus extensive lymphovascular involvement. Diagnosis and Treatment were done in New Zealand so I do not have testing done on a regular basis except mammograms. I had AC and Taxotere plus 6 weeks of radiation following a mastectomy.
It is so nice to know others with the same diagnosis.
Pleased to have found this site as well. I am approaching 1 year from diagnosis - grade 3, node negative, triple negative. I will have genetic results 10/22/07 and will then determine if bi lat mastectomy will be in order as well as ooph. I was leaning toward bi lateral at first diagnosis and then decided that a lumpectomy would be better for me - was somewhat encouraged by opinion #1 that I could always do a double if I felt so inclined at a later date - sound advice but I wish this was all behind me.
I've worked throughout treatment and am now just plain tired and ready for a break and some disability time.
Please tell me what Taxol was like and how did it compare to AC?
And don't worry about the "lethal" word...what you have to do now as I will is add more exercise and make improvements on my diet with natural supplements--presently researching on that, too!
Please share with me of what was Taxol like in comparison to AC. I'm on the AC for the 3rd time this week.
And don't worry about the lethal word so much...like me, I suggest we improve our diets, include more natural supplements and add exercise!
Boy I see we have alot of new members! Welcome to all of you.
Please jump into our discussions with whatever is on your mind or start your own topic and don't forget to vote in our polls.
I'm new to this whole thing...never thought I would be at risk for breast cancer; went from mammo 9/11/07 to surgery 10/2/07; echo tomorrow to see if heart can tolerate Adriamycin; Radiation doc consult 10/29; Infusaport implant 10/30; 3rd oncologist vist 11/5 to set up chemo based on radiation doc eval. Fighting pain in L arm basilic vein; numbness and burning feeling back of L upper arm; feels like a sticky yuk ball is caught in my armpit; doing range of motion to arm to prevent cording; fatigue after about 6 hr. activity so not yet back to work; Exploring Gary Null and alternative holistic treatments; started at dx 9/13 after biopsy to make fast lifestyle changes in recognition of my wake-up call here; have radically changed diet to primarily raw/vegan "alkalyzing"; threw out ALL cosmetics, foods, etc. with ANY funky chemicals (do a net search for carcinogens in cosmetics!!) Taking beta glucan, AHCC, Flax seed oil in cottage cheese (Budwig plan), probiotics, multivits, reishi mushroom complex, CoQ10 and metal free fish oil omega 3. Drinking 1/2 gallon water a day. Cold turkey quit smoking. Actually, my skin in a month has smoothed, and is less wrinkled, not as dry, and more luminescent; my dark eye circles are fading...so the diet and supplements are doing something. Trying to really boost my immune system and detoxify my food, skin and environment. Have noticed with the diet, that underarm odor is non existent, even if I sweat...no deodorant needed. Wow! Doc is talking TAC...AC first X4, then T X4. Had MRI breast, brain, thoracic and lumbar spine, and whole body CT/PET scan...painful spots in back (that started this whole thing at the chiropractor office) is thought to be DJD and disc stuff, so seeing pain doc next week to manage for comfort while we deal with the CA. My whole life fell apart in less than a month! Per all the labs and tests so far, I'm healthy as a workhorse, it's just my breast that had cancer. In reality, I'm shaking in my boots, trying to learn everything I can, and make rational, thoughtful, sound decisions. So far so good, but I'm just getting started on this road. I fear the worst may be yet to come. As my grandmother always said, "God will never give you a burden greater than that you can bare." With prayer in my heart, and the cocoon of love from my husband, children, family and friends around me, I trust that HE is preparing me for the work ahead of me in the next years of my life. This experience is my boot camp. I need to learn to live life as HE has prescribed with the gifts HE has given; HE will provide it all as I need it if I keep his faith. So, here I go with the rest of you as we gather soldiers in the march.
I hear ya!! I understood every syllable you stated inlcuding the spirituality part. And your grandmother is right...there's nothing HE will hand us that we cannot bare...although this road is not easy--you are not alone--this website is yours and ours.
I really think you are on the right track with healthy food and supplements--this is where I personally need help on. I don't or can't find a naturopath here in Houston or someone that can tell me what to take and what amount...would love to have no underarm odors!! If you can start new post with this topic--I think it would help a lot of us. We can start on these supplements and literally run away from cancer....I walk on my "good" days with my lab! I really believe we can make a difference with what we put in our guts and environment we choose to live.
Hi Flasparr and a warm welcome to you. Sorry to hear you have reason to join but this is a great group of ladies and we are all here for each other and to learn. Please join in with us and best of luck with everything you have coming up in the near future. | c4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 1 |

BkiUcfbxK2li-LJsvQrx | Married couple with a 53-year age gap starts a 'Fully Explicit' OnlyFans page
A married couple with a massive 53 year age gap has launched an OnlyFans page promising "fully explicit content".
Gary Hardwick, 23, and his wife Almeda, 76, have revealed that they now have an OnlyFans account where their subscribers will have access to "HOT content".
A post shared by Gary & Almeda (@garyandalmeda)
As It's Gone Viral reports, the Tennessee couple has been married since 2015, when Gary was 18. Their wedding ceremony was held only two weeks after Almeda's son passed away from a seizure.
Through their five years of marriage, Gary and Almeda have frequently shared their love and passion for each other with their online fans. They have a mutual Instagram account, Twitter, TikTok, Facebook page, and a YouTube channel.
The couple has now decided to take their online adventures on another level by creating an OnlyFans page.
While announcing their new social media platform account, they wrote: "Don't miss out! 💜"
Earlier this year, on Valentine's Day, Gary wrote a touching tribute to the love of his life – Almeda. The message reads:
"This is our fifth Valentine's Day together, but the true love that we have and share is more important than just today, I celebrate our love and thank God for sending me my angel, my soulmate each and every day."
Credits: Instagram
The 76-year-old woman shares she had never intended to start a relationship with such a young man, but when she met Gary, she instantly fell in love. In 2016, a year after the couple got married, she said:
"I wasn't looking for a young man, but Gary just came along. I just knew straight away that he was the one… Deep down, I was searching for a soulmate."

Prague, Czech Republic (November 1, 2017)—Prague's Evzena Rosického Stadium recently sold out two shows by one of the country's most popular acts, Krystof, as it celebrated its 25th anniversary. For the occasion, SR provider ZL Production fielded a sizable PA based around Adamson E-Series and S-Series loudspeakers.
The main stage was adorned with left and right hangs of 15 E15 cabinets per side, with a half-dozen S10 compact boxes underneath each. More hangs of 15 E15s each were used as side arrays, supplemented with three S10s underneath each one. For fans in the back, a delay tower had left and right arrays with a dozen E15s and three S10s per side, plus side delay hangs with a dozen E12s per side. Conversely, for those up at the front, six SpekTrix boxes handled front fills from the stage lip. And giving some thump to it all were 32 Adamson E219 subwoofers flown per side, with six T21 subs per side stacked beneath the stage.
Krystof's FOH engineer, Jirí "Topol" Novotny, was enamored with the experience of the two shows, noting, "Strahov was a beautiful and powerful moment of my life, thanks in large part to a great-sounding audio system. I'm a long-standing fan of Adamson, but I've never heard a stadium application with such powerful and punchy low-end before this show. | c4 | 4 | 3 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUbUvxK2li-DeXyYWg | Japan Travel Guide » Transportation in Japan
Japan Rail Pass discount purchase
The Japan Rail Pass (aka 'JRP') is a transportation ticket which gives its owner full access to Japan Railways' lines in Japan. The JR Pass allows unlimited use of all trains, buses and ferries of the company during 1, 2 or 3 weeks.
The Japanese railway network is highly developed, with an excellent service quality and very punctual, which is why most tourists traveling in Japan are buying a Japan Rail Pass. Given the price of train tickets in Japan, it is very convenient for rail transport between major cities. But the JR Pass is also used on most local transportations, for example on some train lines in Tokyo such as the famous Yamanote.
Japan Rail Pass prices
Here are the fares of the Japan Rail Pass, based on the Japanese Yen.
Adults (from 12 years old):
JR Pass classic
JR Pass "Green"
¥29,650 (~US$ 269.10) ¥39,600 (~US$ 359.40)
Trains in Japan are free for 5 years old and younger. Children from 6 to 11 pay half the price, that is:
Note that JR Pass prices increased on April 1st 2014, because of the VAT increase in Japan (from 5 to 8% and now 10% from October 2019). Certainly, the increase is relatively modest (around US$10 on average) but this is rare enough to deserve to be highlighted.
The "Green" type corresponds to a first class, but obviously it is a bit more expensive (prices are about 35% higher). I've been told its interest is quite questionable: quality of service is already excellent in the regular class. Also note that the price of Japan Rail Pass is always given in Japanese Yen, and its cost in American Dollars or other currencies is calculated using the fluctuation of currencies, at the time of purchasing the voucher.
For comparison and to prove the effectiveness of the JRP, here the prices for round trips by Shinkansen on conventional reserved seats (see these trips on the map of Japan):
Tokyo - Kyoto: ¥28,340 (~US$ 257.20)
Tokyo - Osaka: ¥29,440 (~US$ 267.20)
Tokyo - Hiroshima: ¥38,880 (~US$ 352.90)
Tokyo - Fukuoka: ¥46,780 (~US$ 424.60)
Needless to say, in the light of these figures, a pass is often quickly amortized!
Where to buy the Japan Rail Pass
It is not possible to purchase a Japan Rail Pass in Japan. You have to order a voucher from a licensed dealer in your home country, but you can also order it online, which is much simpler. There are a few websites that sell the vouchers, but not all of them at a reasonable price, meaning they don't take much benefit from the Yen rate. We would recommend JRailPass.com which has one of the lowest rates and best services :
How to use the JR Pass?
The Japan Rail Pass is available only to foreign tourists visiting Japan with the status of 'temporary visitor', ie with a 'temporary' visa stamped in the passport during immigration (customs clearance upon arrival at the airport in Japan). It is also available for Japanese people married to a foreigner or those who have a residence permit for 10 years abroad. All other visas shall cancel the benefit of the JR Pass: marriage, any employment contract (including training programs) and even the Working-Holidays visa…
The voucher is valid for 3 months. Once in Japan, you can exchange it with the Japan Rail Pass in an exchange office located inside a majority of the train stations (here is the list of these stations). You have to show the voucher and your passport stamped with the tourist visa, and fill out a short form. At the time of the exchange, you can request to start the validity of the JRP on the same day or any of the followings up to a month later. The registration date of the JR Pass is according to the Japanese calendar.
Book the Shinkansen train in Japan with the JRP
In Japan, reservation of seats in trains is not compulsory but you can book for free. To do so, go to a JR counter in any train station. These counters are located in offices called "Midori-no-madoguchi".
During vacation times in Japan, such as the 'Golden Weeks' (December 28 to January 6, April 27 to May 6) and the 'Obon' period (August 11 to 20) it can be difficult to book a seat, because trains are taken over by Japanese people traveling.
Further information about JR Pass
To enter the station, if necessary, present your JRP to the gate attendant. Inside the train, present your JRP to the controller, possibly with an earlier booked ticket.
The Japan Rail Pass is not valid on 'Nozomi' trains, which are the fastest, but on every other type of trains, such as 'Hikari' and 'Kodama'. You can also use the pass to ride the monorail that connects Tokyo to Narita airport, or the ferry between Hiroshima and the famous Miyajima island.
Japan Railways (JR) is the largest rail network in Japan. It covers more than 12,000 miles (about 20,000 km) of track and serves the four main islands, at a rate of 26,000 departures per day on average. They combine speed (up to 180mph), punctuality and comfort.
The Japan Rail Pass also offers a 10% reduction in JR group's hotels.

Sometimes it happens like that and tv's stop working for no reason and sometimes there is a reason like lighting or complete lost of power in the house,some other electronics might be affected or just the tv ,you already checked the outlet and it has power now you need to call professional help and get an estimate,the cost depends on the amount of damage.Be careful if you decide to remove the back cover,is not safe back there.
Just because you charged the battery it doesn't mean it is any good. Modern sealed batteries fail; just as you described, fine one moment and then nothing, they go open internally.
My galaxy pocket won't received a txt message from a certain person. i have checked on my blacklist and his number wasn't there. it happen since last night. please help.
Hi! try to check the message center number, it should be default with your network provider.
Is it repairable, well, this question can be answered only after opening the back cover and evaluating the damage. From you side, please connect the TV to a different power outlet where other similar devices are working and see. Then try changing the input device to something that sure works. If it does not work even then, this may need attention by a qualified service technician.
Possibly the monitor itself has a tripped circuit breaker. Look for a reset button. Might be in a pinhole.
In the last 2 weeks my Canon MP830 printer has been printing jiberish the first time a print job was sent to it, then when resent it printed properly. Today the printer won't turn on. What can I do ?
Unfortunately these are considered disposable printers.
If it won't power on at all even in a known good power outlet there isn't much you can do as the cost to repair it out of warranty would cost more than to simply replace it.
Other than checking the power outlet and the power cable nothing else to do.
I have a black/decker drill Fire/Strom 12V When I pug the charger into the electric outlet the light doesnt come on. So I leave it in but the battery never get charger. is it the charger or the battery.
Have a manual for Sony KV-27V15 27" TV? | c4 | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |

BkiUfUDxK7Tt52mM_L6K | When your copy stimulates awe, your customer should experience a physiological reaction like goosebumps or chills. A physical reaction comes from stimulation of the mind. And the positive emotion of awe is more likely to move a person to action. Direct marketers and copywriters have the opportunity to create these physical sensations with awe-inspiring copy.
This is my topic at Target Marketing Magazine.
The link between positive moods and the physiological reaction we get with goosebumps is proven. So if you give your prospects goosebumps, surely you can sell more.
So what is this emotion called "awe?" Look at a dictionary and you'll be told it's "an overwhelming feeling of reverence, admiration, and fear, produced by that which is grand, sublime, or extremely powerful." It can also result in a subconscious release of adrenaline.
An adrenaline rush causes the contraction of skin muscles and other body reactions. Adrenaline is often released when you feel cold or afraid, but also if you are under stress and feel strong emotions, such as anger or excitement. Other signs of adrenaline release include tears, sweaty palms, trembling hands, an increase in blood pressure, a racing heart or the feeling of 'butterflies' in the stomach.
If you create a strong new memory in your message that reminds your audience of a significant event, with the adrenalin rush they may feel goosebumps or chills. Past awe emotions can resurface with the right triggers.
Most importantly, how do you spark awe in your direct marketing campaigns?
For your next marketing campaign, deliver that sense of awe so your customer feels goosebumps and chills. And there's a chance you may feel them, too, as you look at your response rate. | c4 | 5 | 2 | 4 | 2 |

BkiUdpI4eIZijkByy0hq | Watch NASA's animation of upcoming Artemis 1 moon mission
By Trevor Mogg May 17, 2021
NASA is aiming to put the first woman and the next man on the moon in 2024, and while the target date is looking increasingly tight, the space agency is nevertheless keen to generate some early buzz around the upcoming endeavor.
The lunar landing will be the third mission in NASA's Artemis program, which has long-term goals of establishing a permanent base on the moon and performing crewed missions to Mars.
The uncrewed Artemis 1 mission, currently set for March 2022, will perform a flyby of the moon before returning to Earth. Artemis 2 will send a crew on a flyby of the moon, while Artemis 3 will involve the highly anticipated lunar landing.

NASA this week posted a video showing how it expects the early stages of the Artemis 1 mission to play out when its almighty Space Launch System (SLS) rocket blasts off from the Kennedy Space Center next year. It's a wonderfully detailed animation that shows many of the vital stages of the mission, and you can watch it below.

— NASA_SLS (@NASA_SLS) May 17, 2021
The SLS rocket is part of a setup that includes the Orion spacecraft, the Lunar Gateway space station, and the human landing system that will support NASA's future space exploration initiatives.
The SLS has a height of 98.1 meters (322 feet), and at launch the core booster, together with its two outboard boosters, will produce 8.8 million pounds of thrust, "equivalent to more than 160,000 Corvette engines," NASA says. That makes it 13% more powerful than the space shuttle and 15% more powerful than the Saturn 5 rocket, the launch vehicle used for astronaut missions to the moon 50 or so years ago.
The Orion spacecraft, which will be able to carry six astronauts on a mission lasting up to 21 days, has recently been put through a range of demanding tests, including one that involved drops into a giant tank of water to ensure it can handle splashdowns in the ocean upon return to Earth. The SLS core stage booster, meanwhile, recently experienced a lengthy barge trip from NASA's Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, where it underwent testing, to the Kennedy Space Center for Artemis 1 launch preparations.

BkiUdqM5qsNCPf8MxP5T | Q: How to perform another method after finishing a method using completion block in objective c? I have two methods. I want to execute one after finishing task of first one. How can i do this?
A: I assume you are looking for simple completion block solution, so this should be sufficient.
-(void)method1:(void (^ __nullable)(void))completion {
NSLog(@"method1 started");
//Do some stuff, then completion
completion();
NSLog(@"method1 ended");
}
-(void)method2{
NSLog(@"method2 called");
}
Use like this,
- (void)viewDidLoad{
[super viewDidLoad];
[self method1:^{ //After method1 completion, method2 will be called
[self method2];
}];
}
A: you can do something like,
[[manager POST:url parameters:parameters success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull task, id _Nonnull responseObject) {
NSLog(@"This is success!!!");
//this is first method's completion blcok!
// this is another method from completion of first
[self saveImages:^(BOOL isDone) {
// this is second method's completion
}];
} failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nullable task, NSError * _Nonnull error) {
NSLog(@"failure : Error is : %@",error.localizedDescription);
// this is completion of first method but with failure
}]resume];
This is the simple example that how to manage it!! In this I have used AFNEtworking's method, so don't confuse with it!

BkiUfS85qhDCuB56712I | YouNique Artigianalità d'Eccellenza is the exhibition-event dedicated to high artistic crafts, conceived and curated by YouNique Experience under the direction of Andrea Peri and the advice of Anty Pansera, housed in the neoclassical rooms of Villa Ciani, a fascinating nineteenth-century residence overlooking the Lago Ceresio in the heart of Lugano.
The first YouNique – Excellent Craftsmanship" 2018 produced very encouraging results.
Since its first year, all available exhibition spaces at Villa Ciani have been taken and the whole project has been described by many influential commentators as "innovative". It has been much enjoyed both by the enthusiastic visitors and by the exhibitors themselves, some of whom have already said that they will be back for the 2019 event.
The City of Lugano is the event's patron, making its own very positive comments about the beginnings of the Swiss Younique, rendering city resources available to organisers and adding further impetus to future editions of the event.
Villa Ciani consists of two noble floors and a top floor that will host conferences and cultural projects.
The 24 rooms that make up the two noble floors, have different dimensions and are all decorated with frescoes, stuccoes and decorations. Each of them will be an elegant setting for the exhibition itinerary.
To complete a fascinating itinerary dedicated to high craftsmanship, a fascinating cultural project, still under construction, will be presented.
This itinerary will include Grand Tour, an exhibition, curated by Anty Pansera, Jean Blanchaert and Viola Emaldi, which represents a journey along Italy through its more traditional ceramics. Unique handmade works, according to the stylistic and formal principles of artistic craftsmanship, in the Italian cities of Antica Tradizione Ceramica.
Historian and critic of design, with a humanistic training, he has always been moving with a "militant" commitment from the decorative / applied arts to industrial design and has edited publications, exhibitions, reviews and conferences on these issues, also addressing unexplored fields, such as female designing, co-founder and president of the "Associazione D come Design". From 2012 to 2015, in the Board of the Fondazione Museo del Design of the Triennale, from 2016 in the C.S. of the same body.
When it comes to artisan productions of excellence, one can not help thinking about the masters of taste.

The "Artieri del Lusso" will meet the formal beauty of some of the most beautiful cars of all time! The owners of the cars will meet in Piazza Manzoni, reserved for the event, and then move to a visit to the path dedicated to the high international craftsmanship of Villa Ciani where they can admire objects that, like their cars, were created by skilled hands of craftmans.

The House of Talleyrand-Périgord was a French noble house. A well-known member of this family was Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord (1754-1838), who achieved distinction as a French statesman and diplomat.[1] The family name became extinct in 2003 upon the death of Violette de Talleyrand-Périgord.
A cadet branch of the family of sovereign counts of Périgord, they took their name from the estate of Périgord owned by these counts, and date back to Boso I, count of la Marche. The first to have borne this name was Hélie de Talleyrand, who lived around 1100.
Their motto was "Re que Diou" ("Nothing But God"): their ancestor was one of the great men of the kingdom of France and participated in the election of Hugh Capet as king of France. An anecdote reports that Capet asked Boson "Mais qui donc t'as fait comte?" ("But who then made you a count?") to which he replied "Ceux là même qui t'ont fait Roi" ("The same ones who made you King"). The Périgords considered their entitlements to emanate from the same power that entitled the French kings themselves to govern.

BkiUdgfxK6nrxl9bNsd6 | The second half of August began with windy, rainy weather to the delight of the gulls, who were the only ones out flying or swimming on the morning of August 16th. Even the Double-crested Cormorants preferred to stay huddled together on the sandbar at the end of the tip of Fish Point, and within the woods, Downy Woodpeckers, Northern Cardinals and House Wrens fluffed their feathers and preened as they tried to stay warm and dry.
Bird activity continued to be slow until August 18th, when north winds brought in migrants including a large number of Eastern Kingbirds, who stayed to hawk for insects over Fox Pond and the West Beach. Flycatcher species generally were common, including Least Flycatchers, Yellow-bellied Flycatchers, and Eastern Wood-pewees. Barn Swallows were also numerous as they gathered in flocks to make sallies across the lake. The wind shifted to the south on August 20th but didn't slow down the Common Grackles, Red-winged Blackbirds, Yellow Warblers and swallow species that streamed over the tip of Fish Point on their way south. Although north winds are the best predictor of migration activity in the fall, south winds can also encourage migration as flying into the wind gives birds more lift and helps them to fly more efficiently as long as the wind isn't too strong. Of course, when birds are truly determined to migrate, not even weather conditions that give humans pause can stop them! Such was the case on August 21st when the heavens opened and torrential rains poured forth halfway through the morning, forcing PIBO's census taker to take shelter under the trees. The thunderstorm didn't discourage the hundreds of Purple Martins that filled the sky and blanketed the trees along the beach. By the next day, they were almost all gone – only one Purple Martin was recorded on census August 22nd.
As PIBO eased into the daily routine of mist-netting, more warbler species began to show up on the list of species seen each day. Canada Warblers were some of the first to be captured, along with American Redstarts, Magnolia Warblers, Black-and-white Warblers, and Ovenbirds. Very few birds were captured each day – the highest single day's banding total was fifteen birds, and as the temperature and humidity climbed the banding totals dwindled down to between two and five birds a day. Mixed flocks of warblers, Red-eyed Vireos and Baltimore Orioles were seen frequently on census and near the banding station, but they preferred to forage high up in the trees and did not condescend to come down to net-level. PIBO staff were forced to crane their necks and strain their eyes to the utmost to catch glimpses of the season's first Tennessee, Myrtle, Golden-winged, Bay-breasted and Chestnut-sided Warblers, among others.
By August 29th temperatures were hot enough that it felt like the middle of summer and the hard rain that fell in the early afternoon came as a relief. The results of the cooler temperatures and north-west winds were immediate: there were noticeably more birds chipping and calling in the dark of the pre-dawn on August 30th as the PIBO staff walked in to start their day's work. Six hours later, they had banded 41 birds and had observed a total of 67 species – an increase of twenty species over the day before! The Red-eyed Vireos and warblers had descended from the remote treetops and were now foraging closer to eye-level, making it much easier to spot the first Cape May and Black-throated Blue Warblers of the season. Some of the most numerous birds PIBO bands in the fall are thrushes of the genus Catharus, and while a few had been seen and banded since August 20th, their numbers increased dramatically on the 30th. The soft, whistling chirr-ups of Veerys and Swainson's Thrushes sounded a note of gentle inquiry from within the dogwood trees in the netting area as PIBO staff went about their rounds, and the first Hermit Thrush of the season was captured. The banding station continued to be busy on August 31st, though the surrounding woods were quieter than the day before. On census, a Prairie Warbler was seen at Fish Point in a group of other warblers. This species is uncommon in Ontario, and this was an unusual and exciting official sighting for PIBO!
While PIBO's mandate is the conservation and study of birds, we are occasionally contacted by people seeking aid for a bird in distress. PIBO staff do not have the formal training or resources for wildlife rehabilitation work, but in such cases, we do our best to see that the bird gets the help it needs.
On May 18th, the PIBO banding station was visited by Jon and Hanne Hettinga, two much-valued PIBO supporters). They had seen a Great-horned Owl on the ground next to the Fish Point trail, and were worried that it was in distress. PIBO's Field Supervisor Sumiko Onishi accompanied them back to the owl and found it lying on a boggy patch of ground. It did not offer any resistance when she wrapped it in a towel and picked it up, and it remained quiet and docile while she brought it back to the PIBO cottage. In view of this unusual behaviour, it was decided that the owl should be taken to the Wings Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Amherstburg, an organization that PIBO has sent injured birds to before. Through the Pelee Island Quarry Farmer's Market, PIBO met Patricia Simone and Anna Morle, who generously volunteered to take the bird to the mainland with them. They saw it safely delivered to the rehabilitation centre later that day.
Sadly, in spite of the best efforts of the staff at Wings, the owl did not survive overnight. It was a young bird and the rehab staff speculate that may have starved through its lack of hunting experience. PIBO would like to extend its sincere thanks to everyone involved – Jon and Hanne Hettinga, Patricia Simone, Anna Morle, and the staff at the Wings Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. While the outcome was not what we had hoped for, we are extremely grateful for all of their help and hard work on behalf of this beautiful bird.

QS ENERGY, Inc.
QS Energy, Inc. (OTCQB: QSEP), provides the global energy industry with patent-protected industrial equipment designed to deliver measurable performance improvements to crude oil pipelines. Developed in partnership with leading university and crude oil production and transportation entities, QS Energy's high-value solutions address the enormous capacity inadequacies of domestic and overseas pipeline infrastructures that were designed and constructed prior to the current worldwide surge in oil production. In support of our clients' commitment to the responsible sourcing of energy and environmental stewardship, QS Energy combines scientific research with inventive problem solving to provide energy efficiency 'clean tech' solutions to bring new efficiencies and lower operational costs to the upstream, midstream and gathering sectors.
QS Energy's flagship technology is the AOT.

About Applied Oil Technology
Developed in partnership with scientists at Temple University in Philadelphia, Applied Oil Technology (AOT) is the energy industry's first pipeline flow improvement solution for crude oil, using an electrical charge to coalesce microscopic particles native to unrefined oil, thereby reducing viscosity. Over the past four years AOT has been rigorously prepared for commercial use with the collaboration of engineering teams at numerous independent oil production and transportation entities interested in harnessing its demonstrated efficacy to increase pipeline performance and flow, drive up committed and uncommitted toll rates for pipeline operators, and reduce pipeline operating costs. Although AOT originally attracted the attention of pipeline operators motivated to improving their takeaway capacity during an historic surge in upstream output resulting from enhanced oil recovery techniques, the technology now represents what we believe to be the premiere solution for improving the profit margins of producers and transporters during today's economically challenging period of low spot prices and supply surplus.

MONDAY, May 27 (HealthDay News) -- A new study of twins suggests that genes may play a big role in how long babies and toddlers sleep at night, while environment is key during nap time.
Researchers found that among nearly 1,000 twins they followed to age 4, genes seemed to explain much of the difference among youngsters' nighttime sleep habits. In contrast, napping seemed mainly dependent on the environmental setting -- especially for toddlers and preschoolers. | c4 | 4 | 2 | 2 | 1 |

Well, lol... Hasn't my tag taken a turn.
I didn't have the kit, nor the tube so I opted to make my own template and found a kit and then it kind of soared to this.
If you look though, you will see the two square parts (instead of rectangles) with the circle part behind, the sphere element.. then i chose a similar'ish style tube and went from there..
The mods on my AL, will get this there too.
Thanks for the great tutorial Rhonda!

I'm getting the gist that going away from the tutorial and using your own things may not be so welcome and for that I sooooo apologize. I on purpose did choose a different kit and tube because I try to be different but follow the tutorial - just to get really different results, but definitely would have grabbed the kit and made mine the same if that is what is more encouraged.. It's a gorgeous tag, but yeah I do try to go different routes (i think it challenges me more is all) and trying to get something different..
That said I went way off route by adding more than just the made template to resemble and all, and that would be me all over the place as you say!
Also, I need to break down and stop hoarding - and go shopping for all the fabulous exclusives you all offer in here, cause they're beautiful!! | c4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 2 |

UK indie duo Her's killed in car crash in Arizona
LONDON (AP) — A record label says both members of British indie duo Her's have been killed in a car accident in Arizona.
Heist or Hit says in a statement that Stephen Fitzpatrick and Audun Laading died alongside their tour manager Trevor Engelbrektson in a collision early Wednesday.
They had performed in Phoenix, Arizona and were driving to a show in Santa Ana, California.
Authorities in Arizona say a pickup truck and a van collided head-on about 75 miles (120 kms) west of Phoenix, killing the truck's driver and three people in the van. Officials did not name the victims.
The Liverpool-based duo released its debut album, "Invitation to Her's," last year.
The record company said in a statement: "We are all heartbroken. Their energy, vibrancy and talent came to define our label." | commoncrawl | 5 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
BkiUbjk4uzqh_Ljbqb3q | We collaborated with Accenture's marketing professionals to pinpoint the macro objectives for several potential management topics.
Next, we liaised with key practice leaders to test the proposed ideas, secure examples that would support the arguments, clarify roles in order to close gaps in the stories' logic flow, and set clear timetables for delivery.
Then we began developing the content, moving rapidly through successive drafts, buttressing the viewpoints with extra research, and reporting regularly on progress.
The concepts emerged as well-reasoned articles published on time in Accenture's 12,000-circulation Outlook journal, in the firm's new Strategy in Action online publication, in Corporate Dealmaker, and in the Journal of Business Strategy. The articles were also used in targeted mailings to support direct outreach to selected prospects. | c4 | 5 | 2 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUd7Q5qdmB68TTCiOi | It's memetag time yet again. Last time, it was seven random facts about me a la Nanette. This time, the wonderfully cheery and talented Crissy Farah has tagged me for eight facts, after which I am to tag another eight peeps.
(1) I am allergic to chocolate. It's not the horrible anaphylactic shock kind of allergy. I won't die from eating chocolate. If, however, I eat too much chocolate, I get hives all over my arms and face, and it's amazing how quickly the hives appear. Notwithstanding the hives, I still eat chocolate occasionally. A little itching is worth a morsel of sweetness. Sometimes.
(2) I lost 15 pounds last year before our wedding. In just five months after the wedding, I expanded exponentially -- 23 pounds! Yikes! Since January, I've dabbled with exercise and have modified my eating habits. I've lost 14 pounds, and I didn't gain any weight during the Monkeys' most recent getaway! Through moderation, I've been able to shed the pounds slowly and without going crazy. Just nine more pounds, and I'll be back to wedding weight!
(3) Pragmatism always wins over spontaneity or fun in my world. Sad but true. I had lunch with an old co-worker recently, and we agreed that I should be doing (and would be happier doing) something more creative with my life. Then what did I do? I walked back to my office as if the conversation had never happened and continued doing the same boring work I do every day. Why? It's safe.
(4) I own over $10,000 worth of Paul Frank paraphernalia. This has been accrued over the span of about eight years when my obsession first began. I have an inordinate number of t-shirts, hoodies, pajamas, underwear, watches, shoes, and bags. Among other things, I also have a bike, three skateboards, keychains, coasters, sheets, pillows, plush dolls, wallets, sunglasses, umbrellas, pitcher and tumbler sets, mugs, posters, stickers, wristbands, buttons, and even a collector Barbie. Actually, $10,000 is probably a low estimate, as I last took inventory in 2004.
(5) I don't like talking to strangers. I guess I was trained well as a child. I hate it when people on airplanes talk to me. I hate riding in elevators with people I don't know. I hate it so much that I actually get in the elevator and press "close door" maniacally and repeatedly. The Monkey is a total misanthrope! Sadly, I have the type of look that seems to invite random conversation. I guess I seem friendly. Oh, little do these strangers know!
(6) I played varsity badminton in high school. Hey, it's an Olympic sport! No, it's ok. You should go ahead and laugh. I had and continue to have zero coordination and athletic ability. So how did I make varsity? Two reasons: (1) I was ever so slightly less sucky than my other nerdy counterparts who also couldn't make the tennis team (the average GPA of the badminton team was above 4.0), and (2) my doubles partner was actually really good. I basically stood on the court to make it a doubles team. I would mainly just stand at the net, holding up my racket and ducking every so often when my partner would smash the birdie. Needless to say, I never got a jacket to show off my letter emblazoned with a shuttlecock. I was geeky enough without the extra fodder for ridicule.
(7) I shower twice a day and sometimes more, depending on whether and when I exercise. I know this is bad for my skin, but I just can't help it. I can't go to bed without being totally clean. It grosses me out to think of nestling in my nice-smelling clean sheets sans a proper sudsing. And then my hair is a mess in the morning when I wake up, so I have to hop in the shower again.
(8) I didn't go to my 10-year high school reunion. See #6 as to a possible explanation for this. I don't plan to go to any of my high school reunions. High school sucked donkey balls.
And now my victims: Aline, California Girl, Jen, Jessica, Joe, Lilcee, R, and Trish. Go forth, and prosper.
I'm a sucker for these things. I feel like I know you on a deeper level now Monkey.
Awesome.. I'm stoked on being tagged.
i think it's kind of cool that i knew quite a few of these facts already. makes me feel like i'm in the "in" crowd!

BkiUeJM5qoYA4vSM3mji | Sept 20, 2004: Did the 2004 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report regarding the possible association between thimerosal-exposure and autism produce any new findings?
Until 1999, Thimerosal (ethylmercury) was present in over 30 vaccines. The 2001 IOM study on Thimerosal and neurodevelopmental disorders stated that the evidence is inadequate to accept or reject a causal relationship. Case reports were uninformative with respect to causality, there were no published epidemiological studies, and unpublished studies provided weak and inconclusive evidence. The public health response was to discard thimerosal vaccines on the shelf and remove thimerosal from other vaccines. Thimerosal was removed from all recommended vaccines by March 2001. The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program has 4100 claims pending alledge a causal linkage between thimerosal and autism.
The 2004 IOM study reviewed all literature published since the 2001 report. Of note was a Father/son team of attorneys, who were representing parents sueing for autism causation, published three papers. They used the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) to calculate exposures and rates of autism. Their papers lacked description of methods, the statistical results were not mathematically credible, and results were inconclusive with respect to causality. Publications reviewed included a controlled observational study from Denmark, a retrospective cohort study based on 3 HMOs (Verstraten), 2 ecological studies, and the passive reporting of the VAERS have been published.
The 2004 IOM conclusion was that "the evidence favors rejection of a causal relationship between thimerosal containing vaccines and autism." Other recommendations included: --No change in licensure or recommendations for administration
-Better surveillance (track autism as thimerosal exposure declines)
-Quantify other sources of mercury exposure
-Restrict chelation to IRB-approved studies.
The response was impressive. SafeMinds was outraged that the IOM report failed the American public. They stated that the report violated nearly every tenet of medical science and that the committee chose to ignore groundbreaking scientific research on the mercury-autism link. Many of the IOM committee members came under personal attacks and received threats. Their last meeting was in an undisclosed place under heavy security.
(Just a reminder. There is very little data on ethylmercury, which is the component in thimerosal. Toxicity issues have been based on the assumption that ethylmercury has the same toxicity as methylmercury. There is absolutely no data that supports this assumption.)

BkiUdyc5qrqCysbsCpsw | Test: SAT Critical Reading
Adapted from "Recent Views as to Direct Action of Light on the Colors of Flowers and Fruits" in Tropical Nature, and Other Essays by Alfred Russel Wallace (1878)
The theory that the brilliant colors of flowers and fruits is due to the direct action of light has been supported by a recent writer by examples taken from the arctic instead of from the tropical flora. In the arctic regions, vegetation is excessively rapid during the short summer, and this is held to be due to the continuous action of light throughout the long summer days. "The further we advance towards the north, the more the leaves of plants increase in size as if to absorb a greater proportion of the solar rays. M. Grisebach says that during a journey in Norway he observed that the majority of deciduous trees had already, at the 60th degree of latitude, larger leaves than in Germany, while M. Ch. Martins has made a similar observation as regards the leguminous plants cultivated in Lapland." The same writer goes on to say that all the seeds of cultivated plants acquire a deeper color the further north they are grown, white haricots becoming brown or black, and white wheat becoming brown, while the green color of all vegetation becomes more intense. The flowers also are similarly changed: those which are white or yellow in central Europe becoming red or orange in Norway. This is what occurs in the Alpine flora, and the cause is said to be the same in both—the greater intensity of the sunlight. In the one the light is more persistent, in the other more intense because it traverses a less thickness of atmosphere.
Admitting the facts as above stated to be in themselves correct, they do not by any means establish the theory founded on them; and it is curious that Grisebach, who has been quoted by this writer for the fact of the increased size of the foliage, gives a totally different explanation of the more vivid colors of Arctic flowers. He says, "We see flowers become larger and more richly colored in proportion as, by the increasing length of winter, insects become rarer, and their cooperation in the act of fecundation is exposed to more uncertain chances." (Vegetation du Globe, col. i. p. 61—French translation.) This is the theory here adopted to explain the colors of Alpine plants, and we believe there are many facts that will show it to be the preferable one. The statement that the white and yellow flowers of temperate Europe become red or golden in the Arctic regions must we think be incorrect. By roughly tabulating the colors of the plants given by Sir Joseph Hooker as permanently Arctic, we find among fifty species with more or less conspicuous flowers, twenty-five white, twelve yellow, eight purple or blue, three lilac, and two red or pink; showing a very similar proportion of white and yellow flowers to what obtains further south.
In this passage, the author __________.
disagrees with Martins but agrees with Grisebach
disagrees with Hooker but agrees with Martins
disagrees with the "recent writer" quoted in the first paragraph, but agrees with Grisebach
agrees with all of the writers and scientists mentioned in the passage
disagrees with all of the writers and scientists mentioned in the passage

BkiUeUQ5jDKDyJ94X62w | Teen Mom Briana DeJesus hopes former costar Jenelle Evans has 'a safe life'
TEEN Mom Briana DeJesus wants Jenelle Evans to have "a safe life" after her husband David Eason shot and killed her dog in May of 2019.
She gushed over Jenelle, 28, ahead of the premiere of Teen Mom 2's new season on September 1st admitting she'd love to see her return to the MTV series.

Briana, 26, praised Jenelle, who made her Teen Mom debut on 16 and Pregnant in 2010, and said: "She was on Teen Mom 2 for a long time.
"She kind of made the show what it is today. And it's unfortunate with the events that, you know, transpired."
But she confessed the pair drifted apart after Jenelle's exit, but she still wants the best for her former friend.
She added to Hollywood Life: "I just hope she has a safe life. And I hope, you know, she's okay.

"Sometimes we comment on each other's Instagram Stories, but we don't talk as much as we used to."
However, Jenelle blasted Briana for circulating a fake story about her three kids online.
The post quoted the 28-year-old as having said, "MTV tried to steal my kids," and she claimed that was a lie and not a real statement from her
MTV stars are often sharing various gossip articles about each other, but Briana's latest one hit a nerve with her ex-friend.
She told fans to "swipe up" to see a story about Jenelle and MTV allegedly trying to take her children away, and Jenelle called her out on it on her own Instagram Story.
She reshared Bri's update and wrote: "#FakeNews, I never said MTV 'stole' my kids.

"Not planning to talk about MTV either."
Despite her assurances, Jenelle announced she was working on a six-part series for her YouTube channel which would be "very interesting."
The mom-of-three spoke to the camera while standing in her backyard and wearing a tie-dye shirt, her gold framed glasses and allowing her long hair to fall naturally down her back.
She explained how many of her fans approached about all of the drama she has had in her life, including fighting for custody of her children.
Jenelle explained: "A lot of you have been messaging me saying, 'you probably have been through so much, from being on MTV and fighting for your kids over and over again for so many years' and you're right, I have.

"So I'm going to put together a six episode series for my YouTube page… I'm putting it together, I'm going to be producer, director and editor for this and it's going to expose a lot of people."
"I'm not going to say what it's specifically going to be about but you guys are going to like it, it's going to be very interesting and very insightful," she finished giving the camera a cheeky smirk.
While Jenelle did not reveal too much more detail than that, the series promises to be juicy given her past feuds with Teen Mom stars, Amber Portwood and Kailyn Lowry.
