BkiUaNK6NNjgB0SszSKw | How did I get my firsties excited about this little writing activity?

They even asked if we could do it again. That's a WIN in my book! | c4 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 1 |

BkiUdGfxaKgTw5qkDrCo | I'm not sure why, but in 2011 I started writing down memories about my mother's life. It just flowed out of me. Maybe it's because my mom was fading and I wanted to make sure there was a record of her life. Maybe, too, it's because she was past caring that her secrets might be told. For sure, it was part of my own need to know where I came from. As an anthropologist, I've been studying other people's identity and attachment to community, but I've never felt very grounded in any place or people myself.
From documenting what I knew, I realized how fragmented my stories were. I wasn't even sure what my grandmother's maiden name had been; I had no idea who my biological grandfather was.
It was in my grandmother's papers in an envelope she had labeled in big letters, "DO NOT OPEN." I recognized my grandmother right away–the beautiful, bold, coquettish woman on the bottom left. She gripped her mother's hand, wore an elegant short dress and high heels. By contrast, her father's bushy white beard, cap, and long jacket left no doubt about the family secret. They were Jewish.
Of course I've known that ever since my cousin announced it one Christmas, but this photo made it real for me. I looked into those faces and wanted–felt compelled–to know more. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

BkiUdqU4uzlh2XfbyOeD | I spent two years tutoring in college, where I perfected my approach with students and how to teach them mathematics in an energetic setting. I have found that making a personal connection to a student is the best way to begin working and engaging students in the material. Once I have a relationship established, I have noticed that students are more inclined to work. In addition to creating a connection with my students, I have found that allowing the students to connect to the material also engages them with the subject. I always guide the students as they make the connection to keep them on the right path. A boring, dry lecture from a tutor is the quickest way to loose a student when working in a one-on-one session. This is why I strive to ensure that my sessions stay away from a typical "classroom" environment of a teacher lecturing for an hour. This allows my sessions to be more relaxed, comfortable, and open to learning. I hold a bachelor's in Mathematics from Fort Lewis College, where I graduated in 2013. When I am not working, I enjoy hiking, archery, rock climbing, generally being outdoors in beautiful Colorado, video games, and computer programming.

BkiUc_w5qWTBBvMd6xPC | Continuing MissingRemote's tradition of providing you guys the patches necessary to enable Concurrent Sessions, we've created a new thread for Windows 7 Service Pack 1. The process below has been confirmed working with the Beta versions of Windows7 Ultimate, Professional, Home Premium and Enterprise Editions, x86 & X64 build 7601, Service Pack Build 178.
One of the most popular articles ever at MissingRemote.com has been our guide on how to enable Concurrent Sessions for Windows Vista.For those unaware of what it is, enabling Concurrent Sessions allows you to Remote Desktop into a system that someone else is on, under a different user account, and access the system without kicking the user off. I, for example, use the feature to have MCE running on my Television, and then I remote into my main user account to access all my files without interrupting my MCE session. Special thanks to Mikinho for compiling the package below and making this all possible.
1. First, Download the file attached below (you will need to be registered and logged in.
If you executed the command successfully, you should see this screen.
We hope you have enjoyed this guide from MissingRemote.com! If you have any questions, comments, concerns feel free to post in our forums link below.
When I download this file windows tells me it is invalid, and empty. Thanks.
You will need to edit the install.cmd file to work for your version of windows. I only had to change lines 2 and 4 and follow the instructions above and everything worked just fine.
After putting in user/pass, it auto disconnects me. Says Windows closed connection.
I copied and installed the file but it ran into some errors and now I can't remote desktop into the system at all.
RDP service throws an Error 126: The specific Module could not be found.
I had been trying to get the Vista Home Premium hacks but the links seem to be dead or high jacked. Is the termsrv.dll and reg hacks available anywhere.
dmv_023, if you were attempting to use this with a later version of SP1, like the current public build 721, why not just change the "SET SET_CSDBUILDNUMBER" line up top? I definitely don't see why currentbuild needed to be changed, since that's staying at 7601.
Will I be able to login ( as a different user than the one logged in directly) on to a Windows 7 system remotely using UltraVNC ?
Keeping my fingers crossed …..
Not working correctly for me.
I can confirm that W7-SP1-Beta-RDP.zip works with the full public release (not beta) of Windows 7 Pro 32bit with Service Pack 1 integrated. This was released by Microsoft today on their volume licence site.
It's working for HP Probook 4525s. But need to download another version which is not for the beta version.
Even though the script said it had patched successfully I had to manually copy across the termsrv.dll and it's now working fine on 7 Pro x64 SP1 general release.
I can confirm that the latest script work without any problems for both 32 and 64 – Swedish Win7 Home premium. Many thanks!
"Your operating system is not supported.
Only for Operating System Build 7601.
Go to the following registry entry.
You should be able to find the exact build , csbuild and version of your windows that you need to change in the installer.
Will this require a reboot?
Will this require a reboot? have changed the product name to "Windows 7 Professional" and csb build to 1130 which matches my regedit..
the install.cmd seems to run through fine but multiple rdp didn't work.
Ouch! Changed the SET SET_CSDBUILDNUMBER="1130″ to match the registry and the script runs OK. However, the SP1 did not change over to allow multiple login. Still asks to disconnect other user.
A look at the registry . . .
Well, any subsequent runs just say that it is already patched, and if so, that patch is not working….
The Remote Desktop Services UserMode Port Redirector service is stopping..
The Remote Desktop Services UserMode Port Redirector service was stopped successfully.
The Remote Desktop Services service is stopping.
The Remote Desktop Services service was stopped successfully.
The Remote Desktop Services service is starting.
The Remote Desktop Services service was started successfully.
Ok, found the problem. It is for repeat users, who may have patched with the original, before SP1. In your system32 folder you will find a termsrv.dll.bak which is a copy of the original when you applied this once before. Rename termsrv.dll.bak to termsrv.dll.org or anything else different than the .bak extension. The script looks for it, I guess to determine if it was already patched. This is why I got that when I ran the script. After I renamed to .org, the script was run again and the patch applied itself and made a new termsrv.dll.bak of the SP1 version or termsrv.dll. Tried multiple login and it works fine. The only edit needed was the SET SET_CSDBUILDNUMBER=1130 one.
This solved the problem for me, thanks EddoAloha. I'm guessing we are running the beta version of this dll though?
How can I make my Win7 PC boot two sessions simultaneously?
One session for the person at the PC, the other session running a program on boot for the remote user.
I don't want to have to RDP into the second session to start the program everytime.
works great!!!! is this legal?
my cpu use 100% now . . . .
my cpu use 100% now . . . . hmm…..
How many terminal/RDC sessions does this exactly enable?
Need help enabling blank pasword. Followed instructions as above comes up as "install" not a valid comand.
Help! want to be able to log in without password. I dont want to have another account enabled to be able to remote connect.
I'm not getting this up and running unfortunatly.
I have Window 7 Professional, SP1, 7601.
The install goes smooth and I get the loginscreen when I try to connect, but when I have written the password and confirmed I get a message saying that the connection was lost.
Does anyone have a clue what might be causing this?
I also had to copy the termsrv.dll manually in safe mode to get this to work. Perfect now!
Gents, when i run install script it gives me and error that my OS is not supported but im running exactly same version as is needed.. did i miss something or im doing something wrong ??
can it be that some latest patch from M$ is blocking this function somehow?
Thanks to all!! It worked.
Made the " SET SET_CSDBUILDNUMBER=1130 " edit that EddoAloha recommended & it ran fine.
worst instructions ever. Doesn't explain anything.
Is this expected to work with Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (which doesn't support Remote Desktop to being with)? The reason I ask is because I installed this patch on my PC.

U.S. bishops struggling under Francis' pontificate / Associated Press
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' 2014 fall general assembly starts today, Nov. 10, in Baltimore, Maryland.
U.S. Roman Catholic bishops are gathering at a moment of turbulence for them and the American church, as Pope Francis moves toward crafting new policies for carrying out his mission of mercy — a prospect that has conservative Catholics and some bishops in an uproar.
"The assembly, which starts Monday (Nov. 10) in Baltimore, comes less than a month after Francis ended a dramatic Vatican meeting on how the church can more compassionately minister to Catholic families.
"The gathering in Rome was only a prelude to a larger meeting next year which will more concretely advise Francis on church practice. Still, the open debate at the event, and the back and forth among bishops over welcoming gays and divorced Catholics who remarry, prompted stunning criticism from some U.S. bishops."

BkiUdf84uzlhdExj62UH | The Liturgy of the Word should be favored during this season as the scriptural readings emphasise the theme through baptism and penance, on a journey of spiritual conversion leading up to Easter, the 'supreme event of reconciliation with the Father.' The homilies play a key role in demonstrating this and therefore reference should be made to the recently published Homiletic Directory.
This feast is celebrated on the Friday June 3 2016 and takes into account the mystery of Christ and his whole being; divinity, wisdom, charity, salvation and sanctification of mankind. The 'heart of Jesus' is at the center of God's love and patience towards his people. Therefore the Pope is asking that this feast be celebrated with a certain solemnity in this extraordinary Holy Year. God's people are invited to conversion; repentance from their sins and love of God & neighbor. Priests are urged to introduce to them God's love, patience and guidance through the love of Jesus Christ.

BkiUd0o4uzlhipPcwJNW | Q: Email Server Design: Avoiding Loops Lets say you are designing a fancy email server with rules support (like conditional forwarding, etc.). The age-old problem of email loops stares you in the face:
1) Say you set up a rule that forwards all of your mail to another address. What if that address doesn't exist, and the postmaster at that domain sends messages back to you telling you this. Of course, your rule doesn't make a distinction for these messages and forwards them as well, creating a loop.
2) Another situation is two users, using this client client, set up forwarding rules to each other's address. All we need is a single starter message and they are going to spin off into a loop.
3) Or, how about an auto reply case, where the client forwards to an address that auto replies back, causing yet another loop.
I'm not an expert on this stuff, but it doesn't look like detecting the loops would work. We could certainly come up with some heuristics, but a catch-all algorithm doesn't seem to exist.
One solution I've been thinking about doesn't involve detection at all. Instead, we just watch accounts for high mail send activity (or high send activity caused by rules), and temporarily disable email / rules for these accounts until they correct the problem. However, this solution has to walk the line between accounts causing loops, and accounts that simply receive a lot of mail and are forwarding it somewhere else.
We could also apply throttling to all accounts, and make sure that if loops start, they don't suck up a ton of bandwidth. This won't stop loops from running until mailboxes fill up though.
Are there any good solutions I'm missing?
A: First, start by reading RFC 3834. It gives some good insights into what you care about. (It covers autoresponders, not forwarding, but it's still useful.)
In general, you'll want to add an X-header to the message during forwarding to indicate that the message has been delivered to the user's mailbox once. (This is what the Sieve RFC mentions in its redirect section.) If a message comes in for bob@example.com and there's an X-header mentioning bob@example.com, you have a loop. So something like this:
X-YourServer-Delivered: bob@example.com
You'll also want to avoid forwarding message delivery notifications, which should have <> as the SMTP MAIL FROM. And don't forward autoresponder messages, which should have an Auto-Submitted header with a value other than "no".
Look over RFC 3834 for more ideas on what not to forward, but the above should cover most cases.
A:
1) Say you set up a rule that forwards
all of your mail to another address.
What if that address doesn't exist,
and the postmaster at that domain
sends messages back to you telling you
this. Of course, your rule doesn't
make a distinction for these messages
and forwards them as well, creating a
loop.
Well think about it, you'd get back the same "mailbox unreachable" message once, twice, three times. If you just consider it spam and stop applying rules to it after the 3rd identical copy, you're set!
The same applies to your 3rd example too, the autoreply would be identical. Stop running your rules on it after the 3rd identical message.
The 2nd is a bit trickier, and a lot less likely. I'm not sure of a best solution, but you could for example check the differences and see if all the new message is doing is adding a FW: in the title or adding a quote. I don't know..
A: You could include a bit in the rules processor that checks the recipient of the auto-generated email, and if that exact same email (perhaps via a hash) has already been send to that recipient, then it doesn't send the email.

Atheists forced a tour like this to the Ark Encounter to be canceled. (Ark Encounter/Facebook)
The Freedom From Religion Foundation is apparently not a big fan of gopher wood.
The group of perpetually offended atheists, agnostics and freethinkers pitched a fit the other day over a Virginia recreation center's upcoming visit to the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum.
The Christiansburg Recreation Center had planned the two-day outing for senior citizens, and it sounded like it would've been one heck of a fun road trip.
But the out-of-town atheists pitched a hissy fit. They said the trip constituted a public endorsement of Christianity—and was therefore against the law.
"Advertising and organizing a trip to a Christian ministry constitutes government endorsement of religion and alienates those Christiansburg residents who are not Christian and who are non-religious," FFRF attorney Andrew Seidel wrote in a letter to town leaders.
The Ark Encounter is a ministry run by Ken Ham—described by the atheists as the man behind the "notorious" Creation Museum.
"This message is insulting and degrading to residents who choose not to participate in religious activities," Seidel wrote.
So, a few thoughts.
First, if you are a local atheist resident and Noah's Ark makes you sea sick—don't go on the trip. Nobody's forcing you to participate.
Second, I find it ironic that atheists living in a town called Christiansburg would be terribly offended by a cherished Bible story.
Sadly, town leaders decided to cancel the trip. They said their decision had nothing to do with the Freedom From Religion Foundation.
Instead, they said not many people signed up for the trip. It's a dubious explanation at best.
I suspect town leaders did not want to rock the boat—so they decided to abandon ship.
They should've told the atheists to go walk the plank—or hoist a sail up their stern.

Norwegian software developer Opera is on track to meet its long-held 2015 sales target of $500 million.
HYDERABAD: Users of Opera Mini mobile browser saved 36K terabytes of data in one year (June 2015 -May 2016), according to an analysis of the behaviour of users in India.
As per the report, users of Opera Mini mobile browser saved 40,135,582 GB (36K TB) data in one year between June 2015 and May 2016.
Opera Deputy CTO Bruce Lawson, who launched a report on 'Mobile - Browsing Trends in India' here, said today that "the saved data is worth Rs 690 crore when calculated on the basis of 1 GB costing Rs 173 on average."
Opera Mini's compression technology shrinks data by up to 90 per cent helping users save data, he said.
"To stay ahead of our consumers' ever-evolving needs, we keep updating Opera Mini to help them browse faster and more efficiently. The latest version of Opera Mini comes with new updates such as language support, ad blocker integration and video boost," Lawson said.
Eight out of 10 Opera Mini users in India frequent Google to search online and of all webpages viewed by Opera Mini users 55 per cent are social-networking sites, as per the report.
"Facebook leads the pack - half of all webpages opened by users are from Facebook. Other popular social destinations are blogging sites, such as Blogspot and WordPress, followed by Twitter, Pinterest and Quora," it said.
Of the top 100 sites visited by Opera Mini users in India 24 are download portals. 75 per cent of these are for downloading music, the report said.
Information contained in the report is based on aggregated information obtained from Opera Mini servers from June 2015 - May 2016.

BkiUdhc5qYVBNAWDbsXA | April 19th: Rode to work as usual and in the morning took the kids to of all places, the Aquarium. Miles: 26.
April 20th: Picked up a kid's friend, V and got some driving time and practicing in and then took the kids to try out Musikgarten. The kids really liked it. Then we picked up Claire and they went to IKEA while I rode up to work and back. Mileage 20.
April 21st: Kidical Mass with Julian and many more. Left the wife and kids at the ride at the end at the Peddlers Fair. Rode out to Bellevue to teach at AMNW from Ballard and then to rehearsal at UW which went super late. Rode something like 50 miles, pulling a trailer. Then late at night, took the bus back out to Ballard to pick up the Dummy and the kids bikes which were still locked up by the Ballard Bridge. Rode back over the bridge which even though it had a lane closure, I happened to ride over with a couple of fixie dudes headed to a party. It was a nice day.
April 22nd: This was fun. We rode to church together with T on the trail a bike with Claire, and A with me on the Dummy. Then we went to Discovery Park, then Myrtle Edwards, lunch at Anthony's, more play at Seattle Center with lots of tag and great popsicles. Wore the kids out but apparently not enough because they didn't go to bed until super late. Dan and Rebecca, two cycling travelers from New York-Davis CA came by and are staying with us for a couple of days. Total mileage around 20.
April 23rd: Took the kids to the blue heron rookery in Lawton then to the playground and biking with friends, then pho, the kids now full, nearly fell asleep on 15th west which despite what people in Magnolia will tell you, is just a glorified 7 lane freeway with dangerous cross traffic. Then after the kiddies had a little rest and relaxation, we met up with our guests and Claire at Der Berliner for Doner Kebabs. Then we rode over to Denny park to ride the zip line and play with a found jump rope. Kids got tired, went to sleep super well and I got the bike parking spot cleaned up for the first time in years. It was nice. Total mileage 16. | c4 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
BkiUdls5qX_BqBVRG_6e | To many fans, Dean Smith seemed larger than life.
Not because he had a big personality or because he lived in the spotlight - in fact, he tried to do the opposite - but because he was an exemplary leader and citizen.
In the wake of Smith's passing, players, friends and fans showed an outpouring of support from all over the country, but his death really hit home in Chapel Hill.
Scott Nurkin, an artist and graduate of North Carolina, had been planning on painting a mural of Smith to pay tribute for some time. He was going to wait until spring when the weather warmed up, but when the news that Smith passed away at the age of 83 began to spread like wildfire on Feb. 8, Nurkin knew the time was now.
For him, the mural represents more than a former coach.
"He wasn't just a basketball coach - he was so much more than that," Nurkin told the Daily Tar Heel. "I think everybody that was underneath him would say as much. He was more than just someone who told them how to play basketball well. He taught people how to lead their lives well."
The mural is on the back of a building facing highway 15-501 that leads into town. Fitting for a coach who would rather deflect praises to his teammates and staff and never wanted a pat on the back for doing the right thing.
"You should never be proud of doing the right thing. You should just do the right thing," Smith famously said of his actions towards integrating Chapel Hill.
Nurkin plans to use Smith's popular quote.
In true Smith fashion, Nurkin is doing the mural free of charge.
"He certainly has his memory all over town and obviously has a giant arena built in his honor," he said. "But this is just one little thing I thought I could do. It's just something I wanted to do. (It's) what I can contribute."
The painting is about 30 to 40 percent done according to Nurkin's calculation. When it's finished, it will be a permanent way for Chapel Hill residents to remember a man that was so deeply embedded in their community.
"If anyone was to be emblematic of the town of Chapel Hill, it would be Dean Smith. I think he's synonymous," Nurkin said. "I think if you were to poll residents of the town and say, 'Who best represents what this town is about?' or 'Who is the most recognized and cherished member of this town?' it would be Dean Smith." | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

BkiUdAM5qYVBND0w33OA | Our ability to «see» starts when light reflects off an object at which we are looking and enters the eye. As it enters the eye, the light is unfocused. The first step in seeing is to focus the light rays onto the retina, which is the light sensitive layer found inside the eye. Once the light is focused, it stimulates cells to send millions of electrochemical impulses along the optic nerve to the brain. The portion of the brain at the back of the head interprets the impulses, enabling us to see the object.
After the light passes through the cornea, it is bent again -- to a more finely adjusted focus -- by the crystalline lens inside the eye. The lens focuses the light on the retina. This is achieved by the ciliary muscles in the eye changing the shape of the lens, bending or flattening it to focus the light rays on the retina.
Two types of receptors -- rods and cones -- are present. Rods are mainly found in the peripheral retina and enable us to see in dim light and to detect peripheral motion. They are primarily responsible for night vision and visual orientation. Cones are principally found in the central retina and provide detailed vision for such tasks as reading or distinguishing distant objects. They also are necessary for color detection. These photoreceptors convert light to electrochemical impulses that are transmitted via the nerves to the brain.
Millions of impulses travel along the nerve fibres of the optic nerve at the back of the eye, eventually arriving at the visual cortex of the brain, located at the back of the head. Here, the electrochemical impulses are unscrambled and interpreted. The image is re-inverted so that we see the object the right way up. This "sensory" part of seeing is much more complex than the refractive part -- and therefore is much more difficult to influence accurately. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 2 |

BkiUb3TxK1yAgXBVDgt0 | Q: Trigger code after inactivity I want my WB to trigger some code after inactivity time (set by me, naturally). I could only find code to close the WB after inactivity time, but I want the code to do something else, different from closing the WB. I found this code for closing the WB:
This Workbook module:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
stop_Countdown
ThisWorkbook.Save
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
start_Countdown
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
stop_Countdown
start_Countdown
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_SheetCalculate(ByVal Sh As Object)
stop_Countdown
start_Countdown
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, _
ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
stop_Countdown
start_Countdown
End Sub
Regular module:
Option Explicit
Public Close_Time As Date
Sub start_Countdown()
Close_Time = Now() + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Application.OnTime Close_Time, "close_WB"
End Sub
Sub stop_Countdown()
Application.OnTime Close_Time, "close_WB", , False
End Sub
Sub close_wb()
ThisWorkbook.Close True
End Sub
In what part of the code should I introduce the events I want the WB to do, after inactivity, instead of closing the WB?
A: You need to make changes in the Regular module.
Instead of passing the String close_wb() in your Application.OnTime function call, you have to specify the name of the procedure containing whatever you want to perform.
Here is the code to get you started:
Option Explicit
Public Inactivity_Time As Date
Sub start_Countdown()
Inactivity_Time = Now() + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Application.OnTime Inactivity_Time, "my_procedure" ' <- Notice that I changed the name of the procedure here
End Sub
Sub stop_Countdown()
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime Inactivity_Time, "my_procedure", , False ' <- And here too.
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
Sub my_procedure()
' The code to perform you event goes here
End Sub
Please check here for more details on the Application.OnTime method.
EDIT: After some test, it appears that you can't call stop_Countdown() in the Workbook_BeforeClose sub procedure: It throws an error. According to this post, in your Workbook module, you have to replace the procedure Workbook_BeforeClose with the following one:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Close_WB
End Sub
And add the following procedure:
Public Sub Close_WB()
stop_CountDown
ThisWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=True
End Sub

BkiUa-I5qsNCPbQZ51h6 | Yo-Kai Watch is a cartoon from Japan which follows a boy named Nate, who learns that there are spirits – the Yo-Kai – mingling with the mortal world, influencing emotions and social interactions. With the guidance of a sort of ghostly butler named Whisper, Nate learns how to use a powerful watch, which has a lens that allows him to detect and interact with various Yo-Kai, to fight off troublesome Yo-Kai.
When I opened the box with my kids (Two of the three Things, that is. My teenager wanted no part in this.) I realized that neither of them knew what Yo-Kai Watch was, either. Inside the box was a treasure trove of all things Yo-Kai Watch: posters, a DVD with the first four episodes of Yo-Kai Watch, a bunch of Yo-Kai Medal discs, three Yo-Kai watches, and some binders to use for organizing and collecting the medals. This was super fun because we were all experiencing something new together! The kids immediately called dibs on their favorite posters and up onto their walls they went.
As a whole, Americans can be pretty behind-the-curve when it comes to world-wide trends and that seemed to be the case with Yo-Kai Watch. But just like that (imagine me snapping my fingers), Yo-Kai Watch is everywhere out here! What wasn't even a blip on our collective radar, here in northern California even a week ago has suddenly changed! Now, seemingly overnight, there are big displays of toys in our local Target and there are even themed Nintendo 3DS XL bundles!
The toys are actually super fun to play with, with your kids! When you press the side button on the watch, the top dome flips open and you can slide a Yo-Kai Medal disc into the watch and the introduction to that particular Yo-Kai is announced to the entire room.
I tried to organize a viewing party with my kids and their friends but, unfortunately, their friends were all out of town, so the viewing party consisted of myself and two of my kids, who sat in near silence with goofy smiles on their faces through most of the episodes, with the exception of some deep belly laughs at some delightfully immature humor. When a Yo-Kai was on the screen that we had a corresponding Medal for, the three of us would fire up our watches with and our living room would come alive with the screaming announcement of the Yo-Kai that was on the screen.
My youngest in particular has taken a liking to the show and the toys. She even wants to go back to the store this weekend and spend her allowance on more medals so she can run around the house playing Yo-Kai Watch. Blanket forts were built by the kids and the giggles and squeals of them playing Yo-Kai Watch with each other echoed throughout the house.
When the Yo-Kai Watch movie opened in Japan the same weekend as Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the Yo-Kai Watch movie won at the box office!
If you have kids up to around 10 years of age, you're going to want to familiarize yourself with this latest craze that's finally made its way over to us.
Pro tip: It's also fun to sneak up behind your wife when she isn't aware you're there, pop in one of the discs and let the Yo-Kai sounds make her jump!
Curious to learn more about Yo-Kai Watch? I thought so.
Disclosure (So the FCC doesn't kick my door in): I was compensated both financially and in product by Hasbro for the #YokaiWatch campaign. All opinions mentioned above and below are 100% my own. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
BkiUcLjxK7kjXLSrEamd | Warren C. Breidenbach III (born California) is an American hand surgeon most well-known for having performed the first long-term successful hand transplant surgery in the world at Jewish Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. The surgery was performed by Breidenbach and hand surgeon Tsu-Min Tsai, both of Kleinert, Kutz and Associates Hand Care Center, leading a team of surgeons to attach a donor left hand to replace New Jersey native Matthew Scott's left hand. The Louisville hand surgery team went on to perform additional hand transplants between 1999 and 2011, when Breidenbach relocated to the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona to start a Composite Tissue Allotransplantation center at the university's medical center.
Breidenbach attributes the team's success in the first hand transplant to feasibility studies and research, including reviews of the medical literature, prior to the clinical procedure.
Breidenbach graduated from the University of Calgary.

BkiUddQ5qX_Bxm4Tr3gd | The manat (; abbreviation: m; code: TMT) is the currency of Turkmenistan. The original manat was introduced on 1 November 1993, replacing the rouble at a rate of 1 manat = Rbls 500. The manat is subdivided into 100 tenge ().
Due to heavy inflation a new manat was introduced on 1 January 2009 at the rate of 5,000 old manats to 1 new manat.
Etymology
The word "manat" is derived from the Persian word "munāt" and the Russian word "монета" ("moneta") meaning "coin". It was used as the name of the Soviet currency in Turkmen () and in Azeri.
Coins
In 1993, coins were introduced in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, and 50 tenge. The 1, 5, and 10 tenge were struck in copper-plated-steel, with the higher denominations in nickel-plated-steel. This first series of coins was short lived as their metal value soon became worth more than their actual face value. After a period of high inflation, new coins of 500 and 1,000 manats were introduced in 1999. All coins of this period had to depict the incumbent president by law.
During the monetary reform of 2009, new coins of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 tenge were issued with bimetallic 1 and 2 manats following in 2010. The 1, 2, and 5 tenge are nickel-plated steel while the 10, 20, and 50 tenge are struck in brass. Instead of depicting the current head of state the coins feature a map of Turkmenistan with the Independence Tower superimposed in front of it. All circulating coins of Turkmenistan are struck by the Royal Mint.
Banknotes
First manat (TMM, 1993—2009)
In 1993, manat notes were introduced in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 500 manats, replacing the Soviet rouble. These were followed by notes for 1,000 manats in 1995 and 5,000 and 10,000 manats in 1996. In 2005, a new series of notes was introduced in denominations of 50, 100, 500, 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 manats. All notes, with exception of the 1 and 5 manat banknotes bear a portrait of former president Saparmurat Niyazov. All Turkmen banknotes are produced by the De La Rue printing and banknote company.
First manat (second issue)
In 2005, a new series of manat banknotes was introduced. They had originally been intended to replace the first manat at a fixed rate, with 1 equal to 1,000 of the first manat, but the revaluation was postponed and this issue was released to circulate with previous manat issues. The series of notes was introduced in denominations of 50, 100, 500, 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 manats. Two new coins were also introduced in only two denominations, 500 and 1,000 manats. Both the first and second issue manat banknotes circulated in tandem until the issue of the redenominated issue in 2009.
Second manat
After hyperinflation significantly devalued the currency, a new manat with a fixed exchange rate was introduced, replacing the old manat on a ratio of 5,000 old manats = 1 new manat. Banknotes in this series were printed in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 500 manats. As part of an effort by the Turkmen government to dismantle Niyazov's extensive cult of personality and help politically disambiguate the current rule, only the highest valued banknote, 500 manats, bears a portrait of the former leader. The 500 manat note has yet to be released into circulation. The other denominations feature images of buildings in Ashgabat or technological achievements (TurkmenSat 1) and portraits of Ahmed Sanjar, Oghuz Khan, Magtymguly Pyragy and other figures in Turkmen history.
Exchange rates
Before Apr 2009: US$1 = 1.04 manat
Apr 2009 - Jan 2015: US$1 = 2.85 manats
Jan 2015 onwards: US$1 = 3.5 manats
A black market for exchange rate exists as cash exchanges are forbidden by law in Turkmenistan. The parallel exchange rate varied between 40–41m per U.S. dollar .

EU countries dragging their feet on building renovation plans
Only five EU member states have submitted long-term renovation strategies that were due last month under the revised energy performance of buildings directive: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, The Netherlands and Sweden.
EU countries had until 10 March to transpose the buildings directive, which was last updated in May 2018 as part of a package of clean energy laws.
The aim of the directive is to make the entire European building stock "highly energy efficient and decarbonised" so that emissions are brought down to near-zero by 2050.
But building renovation strategies have so far been largely ignored by member states, according to the European Commission. As of today, only five countries have handed in their strategy: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, The Netherlands and Sweden.
"Timely submission is of great importance," an EU Commission spokesperson told EURACTIV.
"In particular, the assessment of the long-term renovation strategies will add detail to the National Energy and Climate Plans which were expected by the Commission by 31 December 2019," the spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
Member states are not only slow to adopt renovation plans, they are also dragging their feet when it comes to transposing the directive. By Wednesday (8 April), the Commission had received only 16 notifications of national transposition measures.
"The Commission is monitoring closely notifications and submissions on all fronts and remains in close dialogue with member states to ensure that they receive support if needed," the spokesperson said.
Admittedly, the COVID-19 crisis is unlikely to speed up the process, even though building renovation is considered as a sure way of restarting the economy after the confinement measures are lifted.
"The construction sector has always been a key driver of economic recovery and the renovation of Europe's buildings will become even more important as part of response to the COVID-19 crisis," said Brook Riley, head of EU affairs at Rockwool, a world leader in building insulation materials.
Building renovation wave
Frans Timmermans, the European Commission's vice-president, announced a building 'renovation wave' as part of the European Green Deal presented in December.
He has since pledged to "work towards a green recovery" from the coronavirus crisis, heeding calls by EU leaders who asked the Commission to start preparing "a comprehensive recovery plan" that also integrates the green and digital transitions.
But judging by the current transposition of the buildings directive, the promised renovation wave still looks far from hitting Europe's shores.
At the current renovation rate of 1% per year, it would take about a century to revamp all of Europe's buildings, according to Commission projections.
Kadri Simson, the EU's energy commissioner underlined earlier this year that a key component of the renovation wave would be to "triple the existing, insufficient, rate of renovations".
Detailed measures to achieve higher renovation rates are expected to be laid out at national level.
Under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), countries are required to draw-up national long-term renovation strategies, to "support the renovation of their national building stock into a highly energy efficient and decarbonised building stock by 2050."
The strategies should set "indicative milestones" for 2030, 2040 and 2050, and define "measurable progress indicators", such as renovation rates or caps on energy consumption per square floor meter.
And even though measures are left entirely to the discretion of national governments, some were explicitly promoted in the EPBD.
One example are building automation and control systems, which optimise the energy consumption of systems used for heating and cooling, ventilation, lighting, hot water and on-site electricity generation.
According to a study by Waide Strategic Efficiency, the deployment of control systems in commercial and residential buildings could save as much as 14% of total primary energy use by 2038.
Under the EPBD, these systems were made obligatory in all non-residential buildings above 290 kW rated output by 2025, "where technically and economically feasible".
But only a few member states have transposed the measures properly, according to Simone Alessandri of EU.bac, the European Building Automation and Controls Association.
Most EU countries took a "copy-paste approach" to the articles in the directive, Alessandri explained, "without clearly identifying, framing and justifying" the parameters on which technical or economic feasibility should be assessed.
"With no compliance mechanisms, and exceptions that are left to the discretion of the assessor, the impact of these measures is strongly weakened," Alessandri told EURACTIV.
As member states fall behind on the directive's implementation deadline, some are calling on the Commission to raise its game.
"To reach the 2030 targets and carbon neutrality by 2050, we know that we need to make our buildings more energy efficient and smarter," said Lars Tveen, President of Danfoss Heating. "With the revised EPBD we have the directive at hand to act on what is needed," he said, referring to optimised heating and cooling systems.
"Now, we need a strong national implementation of the EPBD across all member states to ensure broad and fast deployment of available solutions," he said.

BkiUdR45qYVBXTJ3BZbS | Eucalyptol is a monoterpenoid. A colorless liquid, it is a bicyclic ether. Eucalyptol has a fresh mint-like smell and a spicy, cooling taste. It is insoluble in water, but miscible with organic solvents. Eucalyptol makes up ~70–90% of eucalyptus oil. Eucalyptol forms crystalline adducts with hydrohalic acids, o-cresol, resorcinol, and phosphoric acid. Formation of these adducts is useful for purification.
In 1870, F. S. Cloez identified and ascribed the name "eucalyptol" to the dominant portion of Eucalyptus globulus oil.
Uses
Because of its pleasant, spicy aroma and taste, eucalyptol is used in flavorings, fragrances, and cosmetics. Cineole-based eucalyptus oil is used as a flavouring at low levels (0.002%) in various products, including baked goods, confectionery, meat products, and beverages. In a 1994 report released by five top cigarette companies, eucalyptol was listed as one of the 599 additives to cigarettes. It is claimed to be added to improve the flavor.
Eucalyptol is an ingredient in commercial mouthwashes, and has been used in traditional medicine as a cough suppressant.
Other
Eucalyptol exhibits insecticidal and insect repellent properties.
In contrast, eucalyptol is one of many compounds that are attractive to males of various species of orchid bees, which gather the chemical to synthesize pheromones; it is commonly used as bait to attract and collect these bees for study. One such study with Euglossa imperialis, a nonsocial orchid bee species, has shown that the presence of cineole (also eucalyptol) elevates territorial behavior and specifically attracts the male bees. It was even observed that these males would periodically leave their territories to forage for chemicals such as cineole, thought to be important for attracting and mating with females, to synthesize pheromones.
Toxicology
It has low toxicity (hence its use in foods), with an LD50 of 2.48 g/kg (rabbits).

BkiUfsE5qhDCoPRSOemA | Boyfriend guilty of petrol fireball murder
THE parents of a teenage girl who died after being doused in petrol and set alight wept yesterday as her boyfriend was found guilty of the "barbaric and evil" murder.
By Judith Duffy, Paul Thornton
00:00, Thu, Dec 3, 2009
Stewart Blackburn has been found guilty of the petrol murder of his girlfriend Jessica McCagh
Jessica McCagh, 17, was burned to death by Stewart Blackburn after she threatened to end their two-year relationship.
As she was engulfed in flames in the bedroom of his flat in Arbroath, Angus, he held the door closed to stop her escaping.
She died in hospital a few hours later after suffering burns to more than 85 per cent of her body.
Her final words to her father were: "I don't want to die. I love you."
Blackburn, 18, who later said he had been in a "huff", tried to claim the fire was started accidentally by embers from a cannabis cigarette.
But the jury at the High Court in Livingston took just an hour and five minutes to find him guilty of murder after a 10-day trial.
Afterwards Jessica's parents told of their devastation after their daughter died in "the most terrible and terrifying way".
In a statement her father Garry, 50, and mother Marion, 47, said: "No parent should ever have to bury a child and we hope no parent will ever endure the anguish we have suffered since Jessica was taken from us.
"She was the baby of the family. We miss everything about her and always will." Mr McCagh later added: "We got what we wanted. I hope they never let him out."
Earlier judge Lord Bracadale told Blackburn he had shown wickedness that would "deeply disturb" all right-thinking people.
Blackburn, described as a violent thug by prosecutors, was willing to admit killing his girlfriend on April 25 this year but denied it was murder.
The High Court heard that, after leaving a party together, a drunk and angry Blackburn had pushed Jessica into a hedge and punched her on her head, knocking her off her feet. When they reached his flat, the row continued and the killer poured at least a litre of petrol over the girl.
He then held a lighter next to the former Arbroath High School pupil, turning her into a fireball, before fleeing, shouting: "Jessica's dead."
The trial heard he had to be stopped from running back into his home to save his dogs.
Neighbour Ricci Foreman, 19, heard screams and arrived in time to see Blackburn running away.
He bravely dashed in to the flat and tipped a fish tank over Jessica in a frantic bid to put out the flames.
The jury was forced to endure evidence so gruesome that some images were held back from them.
Detective Inspector Iain Wales, who led the Tayside Police murder investigation, said it was impossible to truly understand what Jessica had suffered.
But he added: "I am sure he fully understood the consequences of his actions, acted without a glimmer of fear or compassion and ultimately showed a contemptible disregard for the agonies of someone he claimed to care for."
Blackburn, who has convictions for theft and housebreaking, showed little emotion as the verdict was read out.
It was revealed during police interviews that he had tried to take his own life while in custody.
He is facing life behind bars, with sentence deferred for background reports until January 5 at the High Court in Edinburgh.

BkiUf2zxK6-gDz87Sh3Q | Q: LC3 assembly-how to count string length I am trying to create a program at LC3 assembly that counts the length of a string in the following way:
*
*All data is already stored somewhere in memory.
*There is a variable in which the address of the first element of the string is stored. (I apologize in advance for my lack of assembly knowledge in case this thing is not called "variable".)
*The output (length of the string) must be stored at R0.
I made an attempt, but the results are disappointing. Here is my code:
.ORIG X3000
AND R0,R0,#0 ;R0 has the output(lenght)
LEA R1,ZERO ;R1 always has an adress of an element of the string
LOOP LDR R2,R1,#0 ;R2 has the contex of that adress
BRZ FINISH ;if R2=0,then we have found end of string
ADD R0,R0,#1 ;if not,increase the lenght by 1.
ADD R1,R1,#1 ;increase the adress by one
BRznp LOOP
FINISH
HALT
ZERO .FILL x5000 ;i chose a random rocation.I don't even know how to store a string in memory to run this program.
.END ;do i need any ASCII-decimal transformation or something similar?
Actually, I guess that my program is a piece of garbage.This is the new version of my program.I suppose that X0000 is end of string.I am a total beginner at LC3 assembly. How can I count that length?
A: To define a string you can use the .STRINGZ directive, which also places the terminating zero after it. You should use BRNZP because the assembler apparently doesn't like BRZNP. Other than that, your code works fine.

BkiUcro5qsBC2t5sn-YT | Competition Commission gives nod to PepsiCo's takeover of Pioneer Foods
SOUTH AFRICA – The Competition Commission of South Africa has recommended the Competition Tribunal give the green light to the US$1.7 billion (R25.52bn) transaction that will see Simba, a PepsiCo subsidiary take over Pioneer Foods whose food staple brands include Sasko, Weet-Bix, Liqui-Fruit and Ceres.
In July, PepsiCo, which distributes well-known brands that include Lays, Dorito's, NikNaks and Fritos through Simba, unveiled its plans to take over Pioneer Foods, saying it wanted to create Africa's leading beverage company led from South Africa.
The company promised to support the country's economic empowerment fundamentals, employment and also boost local suppliers.
PepsiCo said the move was a step towards achieving its growth ambitions on the continent, adding it would gain a solid beachhead for expansion into Sub-Saharan Africa by enabling scale and distribution.
It also announced it would acquire Pioneer Foods shares for R110 a share or $1.7bn (R25.52bn), saying the deal would be funded through a combination of debt and cash. In October, the deal was approved unanimously by shareholders.
According to the Commission, the proposed deal will result in "significant public interest benefit for South Africa", and is unlikely to result in a substantial prevention of lessening of competition in any relevant markets.
It recommended that the Tribunal approve the merger, subject to several public interest commitments including a moratorium on retrenchments for a certain period, as well as the creation of jobs at the merged entity.
"The proposed transaction, which will result in significant public interest benefit for SA, including the transfer of at least R1.6bn (US$108m) in equity to workers, is unlikely to result in a substantial prevention or lessening of competition in any relevant markets," the commission said on a statement.
The commission also wants "significant investment in the operations of the merged entity, the agricultural sector and the establishment of an enterprise development fund." What the enterprise fund is for and how much it will cost was also not disclosed.
Eugene Willemsen, CEO of PepsiCo sub-Saharan Africa, said in 2019 the purchase of the SA food company represented "a significant step in expanding our footprint in sub-Saharan Africa".
"PepsiCo and Pioneer Foods are committed to scaling our business across the African continent with a locally relevant product portfolio," Willemsen said. "Together, we have a shared vision for building a more sustainable future for Africa."
Pioneer Foods is in talks

Reality Show About the Wild, Wacky Parnevik Family Coming to TV
Jesper Parnevik was always an odd duck on the international golf scene, first in Europe, then on the US PGA. The Swede's nickname - Spaceman - tells you a lot about him. And today's social media tells you a lot about his family, which seems to be populated with its fair share of spacemen and spacewomen. Soon, the whole crazy crew of Parneviks will hit television screens in a reality show. The Parneviks begins airing on March 16, at 8 p.m. on Sweden's TV3 network. Will the Golf Channel pick it up and air it in the United States? The show was taped by/for Swedish TV so, naturally, the Parneviks and other "characters" are (mostly) speaking Swedish. But if it's entertaining enough, who knows? It could be dubbed, or maybe even Season 2 could be taped bilingually. We'll have to wait and see if the show is any good, of course. Jesper's daughter Peg - whose full name is Ida Josefin Peg Parnevik - posted a preview video on Instagram: A video posted

New Golf Movie 'The Squeeze' Endorsed by Nicklaus, Mickelson
The Squeeze ( buy it or stream it ) is the name of new golf movie debuting on April 17 (the Friday after The Masters). Is it any good? Well, we'll have to wait and see. But The Squeeze has already gotten two thumbs up from a pair of golf legends: Jack Nicklaus and Phil Mickelson. Both of those golf superstars provided promotional quotes for the movie's marketing releases: Jack Nicklaus : "I watched The Squeeze and really enjoyed it. It's a fun movie that tells an interesting story, and the golf elements are so real you actually believe it could happen." Phil Mickelson : " The Squeeze is a wonderful golf movie because it's so authentic. It hooks you in the beginning and stays interesting and entertaining right to the end. I'm looking forward to seeing it again." Whether the movie-reviewing skills of Nicklaus and Mickelson are anything close to their golf skills remains to be seen. But the simple fact they are willing to attach their na
They Went Looking for the Loch Ness Monster, But Only Found Golf Balls
Did you hear the story about the American TV show that scoured Loch Ness for the legendary Nessie, but all they found were golf balls? Well, golf balls aren't all they found - they found other debris, not to mention plants and animals. But the golf balls - thousands of them, in some estimates hundreds of thousands - were the big surprise. Here's what happened: Back in 2009, the television series Monster Quest - a show that pretended to take paranormal, cryptozoographic stories seriously, and that originally aired on the History (!) Channel - hired a team to operate a robotic sub and search Loch Ness for its supposed Loch Ness Monster. And that's what the SeaTrepid did; the little submersible, remotely operated, dipped beneath the surface of Scotland's Loch Ness. But, of course, the sub found no sign of Nessie, because the Loch Ness Monster doesn't exist. (The photo at the top is the one that started the Nessie myth back in the 1930s, but it was hoaxed.)
You Won't Believe the Amazing Week These Pro Golfer Lovebirds Had in Australia
Photo via PGA of Australia Tour professionals Richard Green and Marianne Skarpnord got engaged only about 10 days ago. That was a pretty amazing week for them. But what happened this week is even more amazing - at least for the rest of us. First up was Green, playing in the Oates Victorian Open pro-am in his native Australia, where he made a hole-in-one. Not just any ace - an albatross. An ace on a par-4. Green hit driver and didn't even realize he'd aced it after seeing his ball go into a greenside bunker. But golf balls take funny bounces sometimes, and Green's definitely did: Perhaps one of the unlikeliest holes-in-one ever caught on camera! Is it possible that Green could top that hole-in-one in the tournament proper? Maybe the only way he could was to win the tournament - which he did, in a 2-hole playoff . But what about Skarpnord? Surely she was completely overshadowed by her boyfriend's exploits. Wellllll, not so fast. Marianne was playing in the Lad
Here's Why You Should Never Take a Practice Swing Directly Behind the Golf Ball
Sometimes even the best golfers in the world - pro golfers, tour golfers - do boneheaded things on the golf course. Such as taking a practice swing directly behind the golf ball. When you do that, and you accidentally chunk a divot on that practice swing, bad things can happen. Very bad things. Such as that divot flying forward and hitting the ball. But it's happened at the highest levels of golf. In fact, in 2013 it happened on the PGA Tour and the Web.com tour on back-to-back days! On Sept. 14, 2013, Justin Rose's practice swing divot struck his golf ball during the BMW Championship: And on Sept. 15, 2013, during the Web.com Tour's Nationwide Children's Hospital Championship, Hudson Swafford did the same thing - hit his golf ball with a practice swing divot: Dumbasses! (C'mon, you know you wanted to say it, because now you don't feel so bad about the dumb things you've done on the course.) What's the penalty? One stroke (Rule 18-2).

BkiUdaw4uzlhbeH0Z4SD | EDITORIAL Are social media platforms going to eat ecommerce as we know it?
Social Commerce: is it about to profoundly change ecommerce?
There is a raging debate about how marketplaces such as Amazon are now an essential part of the omni-channel mix for any retailer – after all, it is where almost half of all shoppers are. But this move to other platforms outside the realm of the retailer ecommerce site is causing a bigger shift. And social media platforms look likely to be the main beneficiaries.
While Amazon dominates the pure-play ecommerce landscape – according to GlobalData Amazon is the fifth biggest online retailer in the UK behind the big four grocery behemoths – there is a surge among social media firms looking to get in on the action.
Almost all shoppers in every region of the world who shop online use marketplaces to some extent.
They have seen how shoppers are increasingly turning to places like marketplaces to buy things and they want a piece of the action. According to a global UPS Pulse of the Online Shopper study, in Mexico it is above 99%. In Europe it 'drops' to 96%. That means that every one is shopping on marketplaces pretty much.
And this is very attractive to social media sites – many of whom already help promote products, brands and retailers, and many of which also have sales tools to help sell through their platforms.
News last month that Instagram was to boost its sales tools to retailers and brands using it site was met the following week by Pinterest extending its sales tools. These sites are hungry to sell – they are hungry to take on the marketplaces. And already M&S, Screwfix and Miss Selfridge have all become leading Instagram sellers.
And while it appears that the eBays, Amazons and Alibabas have it all sewn up, social media sites have one huge advantage: they are not only a sales platform, but also far reaching marketing platforms too.
Social media grew up out of pushing great things that people had purchased and wanted to share their delight – or humble brag about how well off and tasteful they are – and this has grown social media into a pictoral cornucopia of brand, product and retail images. Images that reach an engaged, envious and mindlessly plagiarising audience who may well just click and buy the things they see.
Don't take my word for it, though, look at the numbers. According to a study out this week from Bazaarvoice, visual content shared via social media on mobile produces as much as a 111% uplift in conversion and can generate 180% boost in revenue per visitor to a website a study has found.
The company also surveyed more than 400 brand and retail clients to find out what they're focused on and investing in over the next two years.
It found that almost 60% of clients now say that customer pictures and video content is now standard in e-commerce, and 81% state integrating social media and online shopping is a priority for their business.
And with good reason. Another survey– this time by marketing technology company Curalate – found that more than two thirds (67%) of UK consumers go on to purchase products they discover on retailer's social media channels. The 18-34 year olds surveyed were most receptive to shoppable social posts, with half of this age group agreeing they are interested in learning more about items they spot on social media sites.
This shows just how powerful social media has become. And that all rests with the fact that it has captive audiences that are engaged with it and that it allows people to buy things they see while doing so. It is this combination that is incredibly powerful. Distributed retail is the future – shoppers will see things in the world around them and use their device to identify them, find the same or similar and buy them: all from their phone. Retailers will become mere suppliers/shippers. And those that can do it fastest, cheapest or most locally will be the winners.
Social media commerce is the start of this shift. It takes the buying away from shopping and into something done in passing. See it, want it, buy it… why go looking for it? | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 4 |

BkiUdO45qsNCPfj-l5OT | Romanian justice minister's resignation fails to settle political impasse
Romania's Justice Minister Tudorel Toader sent his resignation to Prime Minister Viorica Dancila on April 18, after the latter officially asked President Klaus Iohannis to remove him.
Toader lost the support of the ruling Social Democratic Party (PSD) over his reluctance to issue emergency decrees on controversial amendments to Romania's justice laws.
Some of the changes would have helped PSD leader Liviu Dragnea, who is in the process of appealing a sentence issued last year for misuse of state funds. As Dragnea already received a suspended sentence for voter manipulation in 2016, he would have to serve a prison term if he loses the appeal.
Toader took over the justice ministry in February 2017, and was instrumental in removing Laura Kovesi, the highly effective head of the National Anticorruption Directorate (DNA), from her position.
Following his resignation, the next step will be to replace Toader, but not before expected public confrontations between Iohannis and the ruling coalition, whose relations have been especially fraught where ministerial appointments are concerned.
Dancila's handling of Toader's removal has been puzzling, as she took the step of sending a dismissal request to Iohannis, which complicated the process. She reportedly refused the alternative technical solution of having Toader (and two other ministers who stepped down to run in the European Parliament elections) replaced by the joint chambers of the parliament.
Dancila's choice makes the ruling coalition vulnerable to repeated deferrals and rejections by Iohannis, but is in line with her recent resistance to pressure from Dragnea. Choosing this somewhat risky procedure to replace Toader — Iohannis had blocked earlier nominations — visibly irritated the PSD leader. Both Dancila and Toader appear to have been influenced by criticisms from the European Commission and western governments over the ongoing justice reforms. In a recent joint statement, the embassies of 12 western states expressed deep concern about the integrity of Romania's justice system. The planned emergency decrees would, they wrote, have the "potential to impact on the independence of Romania's judiciary".
Dancila's actions may now ignite another political crisis than settle the complex political tensions that have accumulated between the ruling coalition and opposition (backed by Iohannis) as well as within the ruling coalition.
Iohannis announced on April 18 that he had received the government's request to revoke Toader's appointment, but his statements indicated that he was not ready to appoint the PSD's candidate to replace him.
"Usually, a government reshuffle is done to make the government better, more efficient. My first impression is that this government reshuffle makes things worse, which is unacceptable," said Iohannis, quoted by Hotnews.ro. He added that he would officially address the government's request next week.
The proposed replacement is Social Democratic MP Eugen Nicolicea, one of the PSD's hardliners, and a staunch supporter of the amendments to justice laws.
Iohannis is expected to find legitimate reasons to reject him, but not before a long period of reflection aimed at raising the tension within the ruling coalition. This again leads to speculation that Dancila deliberately picked the most controversial of the three candidates put forward by the PSD for the justice minister position, with the aim of buying time.
Time is a scarce commodity for the ruling coalition and a key element in the political battles, since the High Court (ICCJ) has scheduled the next hearing term in Dragnea's case, which might be the last, for May 20. Anticorruption prosecutors have called on judges to re-schedule the hearing for an earlier date. In any case, it is technically possible that Dragnea's political career could be finished before President Klaus Iohannis takes a decision on the new justice minister. | commoncrawl | 5 | 3 | 5 | 5 |
BkiUdcY4eIZjfagW4sd9 | Q: Rails - Devise sign in / authentication failure does not populate errors array with message Using Rails 3.07 and Devise 1.1.5
Everything is working fine and as expected with one exception. When a user tries to login with a bogus password, for instance, devise denies the login attempt, which is correct, but fails to provide an error message.
I have several error display methods set up in app/helpers/devise_helper.rb and I am using one called devise_sign_in_error_messages! for the login view. Therefore I am able to verify that the following line from that function is returning a blank string for errors in this case:
return "" if resource.errors.empty?
If I give a correct username and password, the system logs me in just fine, so all of the devise logic seems fine, it's just this lack of an error message that's a mystery.
What do I need to change to help devise pass me an error message on failed login?
EDIT:
The answer is that:
a) devise is sticking the answer in flash
b) even though it's in flash, it's not using the key you might expect
Using this bit of code, I can see the message:
<% flash.each do |name, msg| %>
<%= content_tag :div, msg, :id => "flash_#{name}" if msg.is_a?(String) %>
<% end %>
Which I came across on a different post as an answer to a different question:
Another stack overflow post
I had tried to output the flash earlier but did not see the message because I followed a bit of code from a different stack overflow post that appears to be insufficient. Namely, I had tried:
<%= flash[:message] if flash[:message]
flash[:warning] if flash[:warning]
flash[:error] if flash[:error] %>
Devise is not using these keys for the login error message so this code will get you nothing.
I find devise's handling of this to be inconsistent. Specifically, if I choose devise's forgot password option and enter a bogus email address for instance, the error gets passed back in the resource.errors array, but here with the bad login it gets passed in flash.
A: As you have discovered Devise does not use flash[:message], flash[:warning], and flash[:error].
Devise uses flash[:notice] and flash[:alert].
It's not an easy find in the documentation but is just under the third point in Configuring controllers.
Hope this clears things up.

BkiUdK05ixsDMQX0htQR | - Management is trying to cut costs? Answer: Try to identify cost-effective solutions.
- Management wants to focus on new customers and new markets rather than old ones? Answer: Develop financial justification for reinvestment (as mentioned above). Or implement a strategy that takes this into account.
I'm sure there are many other reasons. If you know the reason for the disconnect, that will help you to take the right course of action.
Very interesting issue to wrestle with. The company ultimately belongs to the investors and their representatives, management. It is true that far too often the management does not do a good job of communicating the reasons for their decisions. In that case (as you point out), are you in the right company?
If they have communicated you should know the exact reasons they disagree with your point of view. If there has been a fair discussion, then you have to assume your data was not convincing. Putting customers in the middle of the debate can be very problematic.
I have been part of board fights where some of the management wanted to do one thing and some wanted to do another thing. Usually, that can be a bet your job discussion. Having won a couple of those fights, it does take very solid data to go forward with the fight.
Many new companies have been started by people who see their company ignoring the market.
Balancing the inputs from multiple stakeholders is probably the hardest task in product management. The strategic direction of the company can't be ignored any more than the feedback from customers. Both are critical to success.
Recent events at Netflix show what can happen when you ignore the interests customers in favor of those of investors. Both end up suffering. The reverse can also be true. Blackberry kept improving their product and presumably responding to feedback from corporate customers to do so, but they are losing out badly to the new crop of iOS and Android phones. They missed a change to business people wanting more consumer-oriented devices.
What's needed is a balancing of these influences based on ROI. Resources can be allocated to both proportional to how much they help the company's overall tactical and strategic goals.
If Netflix had tempered their desire to move toward the streaming business with adequate continued nurturing of their whole customer base, they would be in a much better position today. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 5 |

BkiUbWE5ixsDL_dM-tek | Great Leaders Build Teams with Trust and Courage
Managing Editor/Publisher
Highlights from CEO/Executive Team Network
As I write this column, I'm just back from CEO/Executive Team Network in Amelia Island, Florida, bursting with inspiration, good intentions and story ideas to share with you, our CUES members.
We started the conference with an energizing session about teamwork with a former National Basketball Association player turned speaker, business coach and author, Walter Bond. His core message: "You're not in the financial services business; you're in the business of people."
Former NBA player Walter Bond speaks at CUES CEO/Executive Team Network in Amelia Island, Florida.
Bond also said: "If you are a great coach, players want to play for you. If you are a great coach, players want to run through a wall for you."
In the NBA, it was all about teamwork, he said. Then, "when I left [basketball] and went into business, it was all about leadership, leadership, leadership. Nobody talked about teamwork. That was baffling to me because a leader's job is to build a high-performing team."
Bond shared an example of a credit union client that he works with where the CEO knows the names of each of the CU's 400 employees, plus the names of each employee's spouse and children! "He understood he's not in the financial services business—he's in the business of people," Bond said. "Successful credit unions understand you are a training and development organization masquerading as a credit union."
At a breakout session the next day, Jennifer Stangl, director of professional development at CUES, continued the discussion about the impact that senior leaders have on talent development.
Jennifer Stangl, CUES director of professional development, speaks about creating a talent development strategy at CEO/Executive Team Network.
Does your credit union have a talent development strategy? she asked. "Can your staff articulate it?"
Your talent development strategy shouldn't live only in the C-suite or the HR department, she explained. It needs to be part of the entire credit union. "That is how it becomes part of your culture," she said.
It's important to have talent development discussions because your credit union will need evolving skills to meet its strategic goals. "How confident are you with your current leadership bench strength?" Stangl asked attendees. Then she asked this follow-up question: Is this your bench strength for today's needs only or does it extend what you'll need to meet your three-year strategy?
And finally, Stangl reminded us, career development doesn't only mean vertical movement and growth. For those employees who are reluctant to have career discussion because they like their jobs as they are and they "don't want to be the CEO!" it's important to remember that all positions change as the work changes.
"The more you develop yourself broadly or cross-functionally, the better you'll be set for your evolving job. Because your job will evolve and grow just as your credit union needs to evolve and grow," she said. Learn how Stangl can help your credit union develop a talent development strategy.
Trust is an important factor in building strong teams and attendees were treated to a session with Stephen M.R. Covey, author and co-founder of CoveyLink and the FranklinCovey Speed of Trust Practice. "It is not enough to be trustworthy," he said. "That is the starting point. But we also as leaders have to be trusting.
Stephen M. R. Covey speaks to a CEO Executive Team Network attendee.
"Without trust you are not a team; you are a group of people working together. It is trust that turns a group into a team," Covey explained. "The old style of leadership was command and control, where you manage people and things. The new style of leadership is trust and inspire where you manage things and lead people."
Courage is another important trait for leaders. Courage at work is difficult because it is so often associated with career suicide, said speaker James R. Detert, associate dean of executive degree programs & leadership initiatives at the Darden Graduate School of Business Administration, University of Virginia, where CUES CEO Institute III is held. But we can practice being courageous by building a courage "ladder," he said.
"Think of the scariest thing you can imagine doing right now and put it at the top of your ladder," Detert explained. Then think of other things you are avoiding but that are not as scary and put them on lower rungs. Then start climbing from the bottom. Pick manageable tasks, he suggested. When you follow this process, "you're more likely to do it in the first place. Practice starts at the bottom, where we can develop competency."
Finally, Susanne Biro, executive coach and co-founder of Syntrina Leadership, closed the conference with a powerful message for credit union leaders. "The most important thing you will ever do is learn to think thoughts that make you feel good," she said.
"You are a CEO or executive leader making an impact in the communities in which you operate," she said. "What you do inside of yourself, you will do with others out there. If you can't acknowledge, validate and champion yourself, you can't do it with others. And it is extremely important for your work that you be able to acknowledge, validate and champion your team."
A good way to do this is to start each day by writing down all the all the inspiring, positive thoughts you want to happen. "Please don't think of this practice as Pollyanna-ish," she implored. "If you do this work, I promise it will work on you. There will always be a million and one problems, challenges and frustrations. But there will also always be a million and one things of wonder and positivity. At Syntrina, we believe in leading with love, but it has to start with the love we give ourselves."
Next year, CEO/Executive Team Network will be in Austin, Texas. It's not too early to sign up!
P.S. We also honored seven credit union leaders at CEO/Executive Team Network last month. Read about them here. | commoncrawl | 5 | 2 | 5 | 2 |

BkiUdpE5qhLA6eZZnlzj | Five Crossovers That Should Have Been Like Project X Zone
May 13, 2015 May 22, 2015 / Michael Beckwith
(originally posted October 24th 2014)
If it wasn't clear enough by this point, a lot of my love for Project X Zone comes from its set-up and character interaction. As such, I couldn't help but think how good some crossovers could have been if they adopted a similar route. A lot of videogame crossovers just have the characters fight each other, which is entertaining but it very much lacks that special charm that something like Project X Zone had, which is ultimately why it's one of my favourite video games. It may be but a fantasy to never come but I can certainly dream of a world where these existing crossovers were a hell of a lot more awesome.
1. Marvel vs Capcom
I call Capcom the king of crossovers; mostly because they seem to do an awful lot of them, and most of them were fighting games. When Marvel vs Capcom 3 was announced, though, I couldn't help but get excited. Not because I wanted a third instalment like the fans did (I never played the first two) but because it looked like Capcom were going to take the concept to its highest point. They released a bunch of cinematic trailers that hinted towards a grand tale, and the instruction manual even laid down the foundations for one, where Doctor Doom and Albert Wesker team up to conquer both the Marvel and Capcom universes.
Sadly, that didn't happen. Despite having everything they needed to make an awesome story, Capcom wasted it on bland arcade endings that weren't animated and only hinted towards things we'd have loved to see in full. Don't tell me you wouldn't want to see Chris Redfield team up with Hulk to fight Nemesis or Dante crossing paths with Mephisto or Chun-Li taking down the Kingpin. Both Marvel and Capcom have libraries filled with characters so having a more story driven version of this crossover would be most welcoming.
2. Playstaion All-Stars Battle Royale
I may be more of a Nintendo fan, but the idea of a PlayStation equivalent to Super Smash Bros still greatly appealed to me, even if I wasn't as familiar with their characters (and no Spyro, what the hell?) However, not only was there a lack of story, aside from some very bland arcade opening and ending scenes, the game itself wasn't all that great.
But this isn't a critique on the gameplay. There were some hints towards a wider story within the game, with the existence of Polygon Man (a rejected PlayStation mascot turned into a rather hammy and enjoyable god-like entity)and his essence being the pick-ups needed to charge the special meter. There were even cutscenes for the rival battles in the arcade moment which I legitimately love. You had Sly Cooper and Nathan Drake trading snark when Drake winds up in possession of pages from the Thievius Raccoonus that belongs to Sly; Colonel Radec from Killzone getting frustrated with Sir Daniel Fortesque from MediEvil because he can't understand what the undead knight is saying; the Big Daddy gets jealous of SackBoy because the Little Sister finds him cuter. These confrontations ranged from awesome to silly and I loved it.
Even the stages had some level of interaction; two worlds colliding into one another and creating interesting locales, such as the Hydra from God of War turning up in Ratchet and Clank's Metropolis. You already have a plot there. Worlds colliding and merging and all these heroes trying to fix it all. Make it happen, Sony.
3. Dissidia Final Fantasy
Admittedly, Dissidia did have a plot. It was bat-shit crazy but it was a plot; one that managed to take the entire Final Fantasy universe, mesh it all together and explain its origins (I think, it was kind of confusing). It was great because, again, it had interaction and had the characters being the characters. How would a conversation between Tidus and Cloud go? What would Squall and Zidane talk about? How would Lightning treat Kain? It took the idea and ran with it.
The only problem, though, is that as a Final Fantasy game, it had to get really confusing and convoluted, and not the good kind. Project X Zone's story made little sense at times, but it had enough humour, fan-service and spectacle to get away with it. Dissidia kind of lacked it. If Square Enix gave it another go, only with more characters across the series, a slightly more simple story and made it a tad self-aware and not as serious, I'd be all over that.
4. Mario and Sonic
Let's face it; as enjoyable as the Olympic titles are, no one was really begging for them. They're quick, fun party games you can enjoy with a couple of friends. They're not the grand crossover between two of the biggest videogame icons of the 90's we all yearned for. It's such a shame because the opportunity to take it is right there, but neither Nintendo nor Sega will take it.
You don't even need to mix the two gameplay styles; the levels could remain separate but imagine Mario jumping around the workings of an Eggman fortress or Sonic blazing through Bowser's Castle. A crossover could take all new spins on past levels and areas. And while many are not fans of the extended casts, it'd still be cool to see the two casts interact with each other, especially Bowser and Eggman. With the right writers, it could lead to some rather humorous dialogue. It's just such a shame that Nintendo and Sega don't seem to be interested in doing it. I guess they just hate money.
5. Super Smash Bros
I know many would disagree with me, but I enjoyed The Subspace Emissary mode in Brawl. Part of that reason was those lovely cutscenes. Diddy Kong and Fox teaming up to fight Rayquaza, Pikachu saving Samus from Ridley, a showdown between Bowser and Dedede; it was just plain cool. It was a shame that they were attached to a mode that many found mediocre or bad.
So, imagine those cutscenes attached to a fully-fledged game that wasn't 'meh.' An RPG? Maybe a basic fighting game arcade mode like Persona 4 Arena? Given the huge roster of characters, both playable and non-playable, I'm not sure if I would care how the game would play. There's just so much potential with this idea and, as good as the series is, I could safely say that a Smash Bros that featured something like Luigi and Pac-Man bonding over their mutual animosity towards ghosts or Link and Shulk comparing their respective godly weapons would be the greatest thing ever.

Bowery Rentals Info
The Bowery, in lower Manhattan, has gone from a decaying and unsavory place to one of the hippest, edgiest, and most desirable neighborhoods in Lower Manhattan, attracting an influx of new renters. A massive amount of new residential development has reshaped the area's skyline, and high-rise rental apartment complexes like The Chrystie at 229 Chrystie Street are in high demand by renters looking for a luxury apartment for rent in the Bowery. With so many new rental properties, it's no surprise that new residents have been flooding into the neighborhood and that trendy new shops and restaurants have followed suit, creating a bustling entertainment and nightlife scene. The area is especially popular amongst young New Yorkers, who have moved to the area in droves. They've been drawn in by a mixture of the Bowery's unique character, central location (which offers residents better subway access than the neighboring East Village and LES), and attractive real estate prices (compared to other downtown hotspots like Soho, Noho and Greenwich Village).
If you want to live in the area, you'll have fewer options than in other, larger neighborhoods.

BkiUfhjxK6Ot9Pm3xe4E | Q: Interpolation function approx() in r gives error - need at least two non-NA values to interpolate I am using R Studio on Windows 8 machine. I am trying to interpolate a point between two points.
x1 = -159.9, y1 = 56.5,
x2 = -159.9, y2 = 56.3
I am using approx() function in the following manner (reproducible)
approx(c(-159.9,-159.9), c(56.5,56.3), n = 3)
which gives me an error
Error in approx(c(-159.9, -159.9), c(56.5, 56.3), n = 3) :
need at least two non-NA values to interpolate
Its expecting two non-NA values, which I have provided.
The function is working flawlessly for other points. Just this is the problem.
If you have come across any such error, please let me know how did you solve this?
A: From the Details of ?approx():
The inputs can contain missing values which are deleted, so at least
two complete (x, y) pairs are required (for method = "linear", one
otherwise). If there are duplicated (tied) x values and ties is a
function it is applied to the y values for each distinct x value.
A: The approx function can't interpolate values where the x-coordinates are the same.
Hence, I would tackle this problem as follows:
*
*Group all the cases where the x-coordinates are equal and aggregate them by for example the median, mean, or a custom built function
*Use you intended interpolation scheme, for example the approx function.

BkiUcyA4uBhiwapZv5WW | Media|Newspaper Circulation Falls Nearly 9%
Newspaper Circulation Falls Nearly 9%
By JOSEPH PLAMBECK APRIL 26, 2010
The reality facing many American newspaper publishers continues to look stark, as figures released Monday show deep circulation declines, with average weekday sales down almost 9 percent since the same time last year.
In the six-month period ending March 31, the Audit Bureau of Circulations reported Sunday sales dropping 6.5 percent and weekday sales 8.7 percent compared with the same six-month period a year ago. The figures are based on reports filed by hundreds of individual papers.
The decline was widespread, as nearly all of the major newspapers and many of the smaller ones lost circulation. Among the 25 largest papers, The San Francisco Chronicle suffered the most, losing 22.7 percent of its weekday sales.
Among the 25 largest circulation newspapers, 10 had declines in weekday circulation of more than 10 percent. The Sunday circulation figures were slightly higher, though far from a bright spot, as five of the 25 largest papers reported double-digit declines.
Newspaper circulation has been in decline for many years, but the drop accelerated in 2007 and even more rapidly through the recession. While the Internet is widely cited for the drop-off, the lower circulation figures have resulted in part from a conscious decision by publishers to focus on the most loyal and profitable readers, often raising prices and limiting discounts. Some publishers have also limited the area covered by delivery services.
USA Today had a 13.6 percent weekday decline. It held the top spot before losing it to The Wall Street Journal last fall. Credit Matthew Staver/Bloomberg News
"There's a recalibration that's going on in the industry," said Randy Bennett, the senior vice president for business development at the Newspaper Association of America, an industry trade group. "First there was reducing costs to align with the revenues. Now on the revenue side, there's a recalibration — charging more for subscriptions and driving more revenue on the circulation side."
In the last year, circulation at The New York Times dropped 5.2 percent on Sunday, to 1.4 million copies, and 8.5 percent on weekdays, to 950,000. The Los Angeles Times declined 7.6 percent on Sunday and 14.7 percent during the week. The Chicago Tribune fell 7.5 percent on Sunday and 9.8 percent during the week.
But there are some signs that circulation may have started to level off. At The New York Times, average weekday circulation in the six months ended March 31 was up slightly compared with the six-month period that ended Sept. 30, 2009. At The Arizona Republic, circulation in those two periods was up to 350,000, from 316,000.
Compared with a year ago, The Wall Street Journal was up 0.5 percent, the only newspaper among the 25 largest to experience a weekday increase. (It does not publish on Sunday.)
The Journal's numbers were helped by the 414,000 paid subscribers to its electronic editions, including its Web site and other systems like the Kindle, which are included in the figures. Most newspapers do not charge for their Web sites and their online readership is not included in the circulation bureau's calculation, although their paid subscriptions to other electronic editions, as on the Kindle, are included.
The Journal's slight gain helped the paper widen its lead over USA Today for the largest circulation over all, 2.1 million to 1.8 million. USA Today, which had a 13.6 percent weekday decline, has struggled in part because of the downturn in the hotel industry, since at hotels it is frequently distributed free to guests. It had held the top spot for many years before losing it to The Journal last fall.
The St. Petersburg Times, which continues to offer heavy discounts to new subscribers, was the only large newspaper to have a Sunday increase, up nearly 1 percent to about 418,000. Its weekday circulation dipped about 1.5 percent.
Correction: April 30, 2010
An article printed on Tuesday about circulation losses at American newspapers misstated the circulation drop in the last year for the Sunday edition of The New York Times. It was 5.2 percent, not 5.1 percent.

Jose Abreu named AL player/rookie of the month (July)
By Z P August 4, 2014 1 Min Read

According to the White Sox and MLB official Twitter pages, the standout White Sox rookie Jose Abreu was named AL player of the month for the month of July as well as rookie of the month (July).
Jose Abreu already leads the Major League in Homeruns (31) and is setting/breaking White Sox team records already in his rookie season with the team. According to the Sox, Abreu is the first rookie in MLB history to be named player of the month twice in a season.
Abreu batted .374 (37-99) with 11 2B, 6 HR, 19 RBI, a .432 OBP & .667 SLG in 25 games in July. He had at least one hit in 24 out of 25 games in July as well, as the Cuban rookie had an impressive 20+ game hitting streak.
Abreu is in good company in White Sox history as he joined Hall of Famer Frank "Big Hurt" Thomas and Albert Belle as the only Sox players to ever win player of the month twice in a season.
Abreu is in prime position to become the third White Sox player in the team history to lead the AL in homeruns since Bill Melton and Dick Allen.

This seems fairly generous? Is it still the case that i just need to increase the numbers or is it something else?
A: Could these errors be caused by packet loss on your network?
I see from your config file that you are using a binding that has reliable sessions enabled. This means that any messages that get lost by the network will be automatically resent if the server does not receive acknowledgement that the client received the message. This could explain why you are not seeing any disruption in your service; the failure is logged and then the server resends successfully.
If you want to test if this is indeed the issue, try switching off reliable sessions in the config file. You will need to specify this explicitly in both the client and the server config files (as part of the binding definition), as I think the netTCP binding does this by default.
<reliableSession enabled="false" />
If the above isn't an option that you can try, then you could ask your network admin to do a trace and see if there is packet loss.
I hope this helps :)

BkiUfDHxK6wB9mn5AyYB | Q: Javascript global context's variable object vs function activation object Here are two samples of js code:
A. function _foo is defined within the global context
function _foo(){ //some code here
}
//... some unrelated code here
var foo = function(){
var result = _foo();
return result;
}
B. function _foo is defined within the function context
var foo = function(){
function _foo(){ //some code here
}
var result = _foo();
return result;
};
Which one of them is a better programming practice in terms of memory management? Since the function foo will be called many times in the application, is it better to keep _foo in the global context (of the app) and not create it within the function context everytime foo is called? Or since _foo will be (mostly) used inside foo, it makes sense to keep it part of the activation object?
A: C: Caching
var foo = (function(){
function _foo(){ //some code here
}
return function() {
var result = _foo();
return result;
}
}());
Foo is immediately executed and the function _foo is only declared once.
In modern browsers this is 5% slower then a "global" function.
Relevant Benchmark
A: To answer your question directly, if you're going to have to instantiate an object of foo every time that you want to call it, then declaring it at global scope would certainly be a faster alternative.
However, in JavaScript there will almost certainly be quicker wins from a performance perspective, most often pertaining to DOM interaction.
In these sorts of examples, I would recommend you stick with best programming practice. What would you do if this were C#, Java or some other more strongly-typed language? Well, you wouldn't be able to declare a global function, so you would put it in a class, either as a static method, or as a public method:
var foo = function(){};
//static method
foo._foo = function(){
alert("_foo");
};
//public method
foo.prototype._foo2 = function(){
alert("_foo2");
};
//calling static method
foo._foo();
//instantiating and calling public method:
var f = new foo();
f._foo2();
//note: this won't work (as we would expect!)
foo._foo2();
Most things like this are a trade-off, favouring style and structure here over performance is a good one.
A: Try an create your functions on the global context and use closure functions as asynchronous callbacks specific to the original functional request. You can potentially get into nasty memory leaks with too many anonymous function calls, because javascript will hold onto the top level variables that you use within the closure.
You may also want to use closure functions if you're trying to design in an OO style for private members. Do some Google/Stackoverflow searches on 'object oriented javascript' and your get more design help on that particular topic.
A quote From MDN:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Functions_and_function_scope
Closures can use up a lot of memory. The memory can be freed only when the returned inside is no longer accessible...
Because of this inefficiency, avoid closures whenever possible, i.e. avoid nesting functions whenever possible.
Again, considering OO design is good... wrapping your functions into an object so that you can call them statically or via an object reference is a good design as well.

BkiUf6o5qhDCqaup-K_d | 'The dawn of a new era' -- After over three years and seven months, Brexit is finally official
After what seemed like an eternity of neverending Brexit negotiations, Britain has formally left the European Union.
The British public voted for Brexit on June 23, 2016, but it took over three years and seven months for the British government to deliver on their apparent desire for 'independence'.
'This is the moment when the dawn breaks and the curtain goes up on a new act,' Prime Minister Boris Johnson claimed speaking about the monumental moment that sees Britain turning their back on 47 years of EU membership.

'This is the dawn of a new era,' Johnson added.
Although there will be little real change until the end of this year, Johnson has assured the British public that he will strike a broad free trade agreement with the EU in the coming months.

However, there has already been controversy surrounding the Prime Minister's promises with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen contradicting Johnson's claims that there will be no checks on goods moving between the UK and Northern Ireland.
Speaking to RTE, Ms Von der Leyen said: 'It is very clear in the Withdrawal Agreement – and this is set into law because it has been ratified by both parliaments, the European one and the British one.
Johnson has already been contradicted with regard to his Brexit promises. (Photo by Christopher Furlong/Getty Images)
'Of course, there will be checks between Northern Ireland and Great Britain as it is written down in the Withdrawal Agreement.
'The checks will be done by the Brits under the supervision of the European Union and the European Court of Justice.'
Speaking in an address to the nation which was streamed on Mr Johnson's Facebook page on Friday night, the Prime Minister described 'an astonishing moment of hope. A moment that many people thought would never come.'

Johnny & the Man Kids are an Indie Act with Truly Unique Vocals
Johnny & the Man Kids have released a new single titled "That's Different" which they say is about "..fake confidence at the bar." The song channels the spirit of rock n' roll and feels slightly retro in instrumentation, chord choices, and vocal delivery. The vocal style is what truly sets this band apart from other indie rock acts. The vocals have a strong sense of urgency and it truly feels like every single lyric matters so deeply to the lead singer. It's loaded with pure emotion. It makes the listener listen harder. This creates a natural hook in the song that will lead listeners to listen over and over again and become fans. The chorus of the song is catchy in itself, but the style of the vocals makes this song a true stand out hit.
Enjoy "That's Different" on Spotify now:
This spectacular indie rock band was formed by two brothers John (on Guitar, Bass, Keyboard, Vox) and Tyler Marciniak (on bass). Andy Pszonak (guitar) and Alex Bogart (drums) later joined the band to take Buffalo by storm.
Find the band on facebook.

BkiUfy_xK7IABLfxJE6n | At a glance, it might seem as if Oasis is utterly indifferent to its legacy.
During a recent Dallas tour stop, Noel Gallagher, one half of the band's famously combustible fraternity who found life after Britpop superstardom with his High Flying Birds, treated Oasis songs with all the respect afforded back issues of NME tossed to the curb. He performed the songs—"Fade Away" or "Champagne Supernova"—not as tributes, but as obligations, grimly acknowledging the roars greeting the familiar chords with more of a wince than a grin. Yet, when the encore rolled around, the final song of the night threw Noel Gallagher's true feelings about his past into stark relief.
There's a casual brilliance to so much of Glory that its stature as one of the landmark albums of the 1990s seems a given.
Like many of its contemporaries, the 11-track Glory, which has sold more than 20 million copies worldwide, has aged spectacularly well, especially in light of bands formed in its wake—the Killers, Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys and so on—trying (and often failing) to recreate the record's specific blend of ego, vanity, skill and attitude. That the album was also the band's sophomore effort, following the 1994 breakthrough Definitely Maybe, only enhances Oasis' already formidable reputation.
Granted, at the time of its release, critics almost uniformly dismissed Glory, writing it off as nothing more than a rehash of other, better British rock bands: "Throughout, it's Gallagher's way with a tune, any tune, that remains their trump card, as in the way 'Some Might Say' piles hook upon hook, shamelessly buttressing its assault on the memory: well, if that bit doesn't get you humming, it suggests, how about this bit? Or this?" wrote the Independent's Andy Gill upon Glory's initial release.
Derivative, sure—glam pioneer Gary Glitter earned a co-writing credit on "Hello", owing to the striking similarities between the Oasis song and his own 1974 tune "Hello, Hello, I'm Back Again"—but in that sense, Oasis prefigured pop music's eventual infatuation with hip-hop, sampling and mash-ups. What was sacrilegious in the mid-1990s is now utterly commonplace among the 21st century's reigning pop stars—just consider Sam Smith's brief kerfuffle over just how much Tom Petty influenced the sound of his smash hit "Stay With Me".
But strip-mining your record collection for inspiration doesn't mean much if you don't have the chops to back it up. And in that sense, Oasis stands alone.
Much like the albums crafted by the Gallagher brothers' beloved Beatles, there's a casual brilliance to so much of Glory that its stature as one of the landmark albums of the 1990s, despite the critical establishment's initial revulsion and dismissal of Oasis, seems a given. The album spawned six hit singles, including "Wonderwall", "Some Might Say", "Champagne Supernova", "Roll With It" and "Don't Look Back in Anger", yet Glory is remarkably cohesive. The record, produced by Noel Gallagher with Owen Morris, unfolds with unhurried ease, fading in with the youthful bravado of "Hello" and slipping away with the languorous, liquid fade-out of "Supernova".
Strip-mining your record collection for inspiration doesn't mean much if you don't have the chops to back it up. In that sense, Oasis stands alone.
It's easy to get lost in the almost taffy-like give and take of lengthier tracks like "Some Might Say" or "Champagne Supernova"—listening to these songs 20 years later is to be reminded that British rock bands still stand alone when it comes to cultivating an almost tangible atmosphere on their albums. Delving into the second and third discs of (What's the Story) Morning Glory?'s special edition puts the accomplishment in greater context.
That Oasis, at that moment in its career, was able to demonstrate restraint and ruthlessly cull its absolute best speaks to the savvy of the Gallagher brothers and their band mates. The axiom about having your whole life to make your first record, but hardly any time to make your second certainly applies: 14 months elapsed between Oasis' first and second LPs. Perhaps it was the Beatles influence again—just dive in and do your best, and let the work dictate the direction of things.
Another weapon in the band's arsenal was its justly acclaimed live performances, which comprises the third disc. Culled from appearances at Earls Court, Roskilde, Knebworth and Tokyo's Club Quattro, these 14 tracks, featuring nearly all of Glory, showcases a band at full force, attacking its songs with the gusto of a band eager to silence every last naysayer—the Roskilde version of "Roll With It" feels like standing inside of a jet engine.
Although it sounds like a backhanded compliment, it's true: Oasis was very much the sum of its parts. The Gallaghers' acrimonious chemistry notwithstanding, the sextet would not have achieved all that it did without those indelible songs, as well as its damn-the-torpedoes attitude. (The mind boggles to think of the Britpop wars unfolding in the age of Twitter.) Even if Oasis never caves to the desires of a generation that never saw them live—Oasis reunion rumors are a fixture of the British music press—they should, and hopefully do, look back not with anger or indifference, but justifiable pride. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 5 |
BkiUfHk25V5jU0EvI-5N | BioWare Might Have Just Teased A New Mass Effect
Ewan Moore in Technology
Last updated 1:40 PM, Friday November 08 2019 GMT
The Mass Effect franchise has been in deep stasis since 2017's Mass Effect: Andromeda. The much-maligned release was considered by many to be far short of BioWare's previous efforts, and sales suffered accordingly. One dodgy game doesn't mean the entire franchise is over though, and Mass Effect game director Casey Hudson has just given us all fresh hope for the future.
While celebrating N7 Day yesterday (a big day for the Mass Effect community), Hudson took to Twitter to share some unused concept art from the original game. More than that though, he shared the sentiment we were all waiting to hear, explaining that BioWare has so many ideas and stories left to tell in Mass Effect.
Okay, so I guess technically we were all waiting to hear about actual confirmation of a new game or remastered trilogy... but I take what I can get. Feast your eyes on that sweet concept art.
This isn't the first time we've had reassurance from BioWare that Mass Effect will return someday, but it is perhaps the most reassuring. A few months back, BioWare executive producer Mike Darrah also told Polygon that there's plenty left to see in the Mass Effect universe.
"We're definitely not done with Mass Effect," he explained. "There's a lot of stories to be told. We could pull on the threads we put down with Andromeda; we could pull on threads from Mass Effect 3. There's a lot of interesting space to be explored."
Hudson also chimed in at the time with his thoughts, revealing that he thinks the Mass Effect franchise is still "very much alive".
"I'm thinking all the time about things that I think will be great," he said. "It's just a matter of getting back to it as soon as we can."
BioWare staff continuing to tell us that the franchise is coming back is all well and good of course, but I think at this point we'd all just like to see or hear something a little more official.
There were some suggestions that BioWare would use N7 day to unveil a remaster of the original Mass Effect trilogy, but this came to nothing. With that said, we can't rule it out completely. EA recently confirmed that it has several exciting remasters of fan-favourite franchises in development, after all.
Could there be something more to Casey sharing concept art for the original trilogy? Are Mass Effect fans starved for news and desperate for any scraps they can get their hands on at this stage? I can answer one of those questions for certain, but I'll leave both to your imagination for now.

BkiUdXPxaKPQos1WZdEW | The Roman route of Thessaloniki through time begins in 168 BC when the Roman general Lucius Aemilius Paul defeats the king of Macedonia Perseus. As the Capital of the second Roman administrative region of Macedonia, Thessaloniki is geostrategically upgraded with the construction of the Egnatia road (Via Egnatia) which connects the Adriatic with the Dardanelles and Asia Minor and becomes a commercial, political and military center. The Roman Thessaloniki will find itself on the way of the Apostle Paul in 50 AD and the seed of his teaching will flourish by the subsequent foundation of the Christian community in the city. In fact, St. Paul's two Epistles 'Thessalonians' are the oldest texts of the New Testament.

BkiUd_s4eILhP_ZFB9OX | The former captain of the Costa Concordia visited the site of the shipwreck on Thursday for the first time since it crashed off the coast of Italy in 2012, killing 32 people.
Francesco Schettino went aboard the ship with court-appointed experts who were examining emergency generators on the ship, trying to find any evidence that something other human error caused the crash, BBC reports. Schettino is on trial for manslaughter, with authorities blaming him for causing the crash by taking the ship too close to shore. He claims the crash was also caused by poor emergency generators and an untrained crew.
Schettino is currently facing manslaughter charges for allegedly abandoning the ship before 4,229 passengers were saved. Witnesses say Schettino jumped into a lifeboat during the crash evacuation, but he says he fell into the boat. He denies any wrongdoing. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 2 |

Megan Thee Stallion continues to speak out this week, expressing her frustration and anger at the fact that women are continually putting others before themselves.
She was referring to an incident last Sunday, when rapper Tory Lanez was arrested by the LAPD and charged with carrying a concealed firearm.
Stallion was in the car with him and suffered a gunshot wound. She says the police transported her to the hospital so that she could be treated.
The rapper tweeted:
"Black women are so unprotected & we hold so many things in to protect the feelings of others w/o considering our own."
It might be funny to y'all on the internet and just another messy topic for you to talk about but this is my real life and I'm real life hurt and traumatized."
Twitter / Megan Thee Stallion
On Wednesday, she said she wanted to set the record straight about what happened that day and shared a note on Instagram, writing:
"The narrative that is being reported about Sunday's morning events are inaccurate and I'd like to set the record straight.
On Sunday morning, I suffered gunshot wounds, as a result of a crime that was committed against me and done with the intention to physically harm me. I was never arrested, the police officers drove me to the hospital where I underwent surgery to remove the bullets."

She added a caption to her note, and said that the incident was an "eye opener" for how women are treated.
"I was never arrested. This whole experience was an eye opener and a blessing in disguise. I hate that it took this experience for me to learn how to protect my energy.
I'm incredibly thankful to be alive and that I'm expected to make a full recovery, but it was important for me to clarify the details about this traumatic night.
I'm currently focused on my recovery, so I can return back to my life and back to making music as soon as possible."

According to Variety, Lanez was arrested after police received reports that he was there when shots were fired near a home in the Hollywood Hills.
TMZ reported that Stallion had an injury on her foot from broken glass on the floor of the car, but Megan says she was shot by someone. She has not named the suspect.
Police have not confirmed that Lanez was the suspected shooter. An LAPD spokesperson says based on Megan's statements, police have opened an investigation into a possible assault with a deadly weapon.
Lanez, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, posted $35,000 bail and was released. He is expected back in court on Oct. 13.

BkiUbb85qX_AY1OJLF-8 | This blog started life as a travel blog, but sometimes I wanted to post things related to the places I've been to and the work I've done, and the name of the site (TravelFlea) never seemed quite fitting.
So I've changed the title. And the URL.
I'm going to post on here when I'm back in Tanzania for Hoja in May until August. And I'm going to micro-blog via Twitter, from the village, using the wonders of the text message.
And then I'm going to blog about stories I'm interested in, probably largely about Africa, development, sexual health, and education.
I don't intend, for the moment at least, to corner myself into posting at a set rate. Because I want to blog about things I know a bit about, when I really care to blog about them. Not ramble on for no good reason.
Great that you're going back - I am sure you'll have an amazing time. Will look forward to reading all about it. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 1 |

BkiUeC7xK1ThhAcYlOR_ | A New Zealand pathologist is in the Cook Islands this week to assist police investigations into the death of a nine-year-old child.
A 46-year-old male relative of the child whose death in Aitutaki was referred to Police, was charged with manslaughter last Thursday and has been remanded in custody on Rarotonga pending outcomes of the Police investigation, including the pathologist report.
The death and charges have sparked social media conversations over the silence surrounding family violence.
Meanwhile, Cook Islands community leaders gathered in Auckland over the weekend to discuss family violence with other ethnic groups and government ministers at the first ever Safer Ethnic Communities Ministerial Forum.
The forum was opened by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and looked at creating safer communities, small business crime prevention and domestic violence.
Parliamentary undersecretary Michael Wood says while there tends to be silence around the issue in some communities, people should be encouraged to speak up for kids.
"If you really think something bad could be happening, please do speak to the police because the outcome of something really going wrong is violence in the household. Watch out and speak up if you feel that something is going on." | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 2 |

A Few More Words For Studs
Three days after Studs Terkel's death, the New York Times published a column by critic Edward Rothstein titled "An Appraisal: He Gave Voice to Many, Among Them Himself." The piece is a striking instance of the low art of red-baiting disguised as high-minded criticism. It has been effectively countered as such by, among others, Victor Navasky, Howard Zinn, Roger Ebert and Andre Schiffrin. Yet I have continued to brood about it. I am moved to write about it now not because Terkel needs further defense against such petty sniping but because Rothstein's essay, so clearly intended to diminish his achievements, has the ironic effect of illuminating them.
It is inevitable that the tsunami of praise and affection--of love--released by news of Terkel's death would prompt reaction. And it is of course appropriate for a critic to scale back the superlatives and inquire into the precise nature of his achievement. Such scrutiny is especially warranted in this case, because the legend that celebrates Studs also obscures him. He was sharper, edgier and more complicated than the statue that is hardening around him.
Rothstein's "appraisal," however, proves, to be a crude exercise in ideological taxonomy. His critical method is to uncover with a flourish that which was never hidden--Terkel was "a man of the left"--and to offer this as the key to the work. Studs was open about his political sympathies--he used to joke that he never met a petition he didn't sign--and he paid for them during the 1950s when he was blacklisted. The question is what relevance, if any, this has to an assessment of his work.
Rothstein begins by acknowledging the extent of his impact. Absent Terkel's decades on Chicago radio, he writes, "it is difficult to imagine that National Public Radio would have evolved in the way it did, or that Ken Burns could have made oral history into a cinematic tradition." Moreover, Terkel has influenced a generation of academics who seek "to tell history from below--not from the perspective of the makers of history but from the perspective of those who have been shaped by it."
He then erects a straw man, in order to knock it down:
The oral historian does little more than hold up a mirror, just making sure the glass is clean. The practice claims to be self-effacing and world-revealing. How can a collection of interviews be anything else?
Is there a serious reader who believes this, who does not understand that an oral history is a literary construct? (Terkel himself was self-aware and reflective about his process of composition in a revealing 2001 interview with Michael Lenehan.) In any case, this willfully naïve proposition proves a key step in Rothstein's emerging argument.
"If you look closely at these oral histories, you can never forget who has shaped them," he writes, then adds ominously, "and to what end." By way of example, he writes of Working:
This vision of work . . . is an obvious translation of a traditional Marxist view of the alienation of labor--the sense of disassociation that comes from the capitalist workplace.
Now of all the things that might be said about how Terkel's sensibility shapes the selection and orchestration of the voices in that book, this is surely the least interesting. As Curtis Black has remarked, the tradition of alienation from work that Studs drew on had less to do with Marx than with Thoreau and Johnny Paycheck (known for his rendition of the country song "Take This Job and Shove It").
As Rothstein's argument advances, it derails. The clinching evidence he offers for his view of Terkel as a doctrinaire Marxist who deployed the voices of others in the service of his leftist views is that he wore red in solidarity with labor and once wrote a blurb for a book by Bill Ayers. We thus leave the esteemed critic at the end of his essay in a posture reminiscent of Joe McCarthy ("I have in my hand a list . . . "), holding aloft a pair of red socks in one hand and a book jacket in the other.
The net effect of the essay is to erase rather than evoke the sensibility that animates Terkel's work. His broad human sympathies, robust curiosity, narrative appetite, and eclectic taste--these qualities, in Rothstein's view, were mere camouflage for rigid obedience to Marxist categories of analysis. The exercise is a classic demonstration of how those who police literature from an ideological perspective (wherever it may lie on the political spectrum) cramp their imaginations and impoverish their experience of the world. It is not Terkel but Rothstein whose vision is narrowed by a fixation on Marxist doctrine.
Stripped of its red-baiting snippiness, Rothstein's thesis is that Terkel spoke through his subjects, that he coerced their voices to serve his own. There is, of course, a limited sense in which this is true. Terkel was a writer, making countless choices of selection, emphasis, and arrangement that necessarily reflect his sense of life. There are also legitimate questions that can be raised about what is gained and what is lost by his method of rendering encounters as monologues. But that is not Rothstein's point. Rather, he repeatedly implies that Terkel's voice was primary, that "he rarely stood aside," that he displaced the voices of others with his own.
This is a profound misreading of the man and his achievement. Terkel was not retiring. He was a talker. His genre was conversation. In a good conversation, talking and listening, expressing and absorbing are one and the same, all part of the play of intelligence and wit and human sympathy that generates fresh perceptions and calls forth good stories.
Terkel's conversational style was companionable, associative, and improvisational: it was musical. As much as he enjoyed being lionized as a figure in American letters, he would not, I think, be offended to be remembered, above all, as a disc jockey who spun the voices of his time.
What he has bequeathed us is extraordinary: some 5,000 hours of taped conversations housed at the Chicago History Museum, a generous selection of which are available online. (A delicious irony: this technological incompetent--he didn't drive a car, could barely operate his tape recorder, never used a computer--is gloriously preserved on the Internet.) In the end, I expect the books, as important as they are, will be seen as byproducts of this collection of voices--a body of work that constitutes an unparalleled record of what it was like to be alive in the second half of the twentieth century.
At the center of this vast symphony stands the man himself. Contra Rothstein's portrayal of him as a doctrinaire ventriloquist, Terkel is ever alive to possibility and eager to be surprised. The world is larger and more mysterious, he knows, than his ideas about it. At play in the medium of conversation, his hospitable voice endlessly elicits the voices of others, not in the expectation they will lend support to some thesis, Marxist or otherwise, but in the hope they will delight him by refusing to conform to his expectations and thereby carry him deeper into the world.

BkiUdRE5qhLA-KZ41j5v | With TVD closed for summer vacation next week, I thought I would alert our readers to a great album which will be released next Thursday. For fans of world music, Fire, Sweat & Pastis is a fascinating listen and is destined to become a dance floor favorite. Fans in Canada can expect a tour followed by an appearance at the prestigious Montreal Jazz Festival on July 7.
Finnish guitarist Janne Halonen leads the Helsinki-Cotonou Ensemble, which features West African and Scandinavian musicians playing a unique blend of jazz, funk, R&B, and the traditional music of Benin. The hallmarks of the sound will be familiar to anyone who digs percussive rhythms, funky bass lines, soulful call-and-response vocals, and virtuosic brass and woodwind melodies.
While most readers know Helsinki as the capital of Finland, Cotonou is Benin's most populous city hence the name of the group. Halonen first traveled there in 2009 and connected with vocalist and percussionist Noël Saïzonou. A band and a new musical hybrid were born.
The partnership flourished in Finland when Saïzonou visited multiple times. Originally the band was a quartet with drummer Juha Räsänen and bassist Sampo Riskilä. They promptly recorded their first album, Beaucoup de Piment (A Lot of Pepper).
I generally don't like to compare musical styles and name drop musicians, but Rick Sanders of fRoots magazine described them as "Weather Report meets Fela." Enough said. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

Snoh Aalegra shares the sultry "DYING 4 YOUR LOVE"
Step into a moody future via her latest single.
By Sajae Elder
Snoh Aalegra shared her new single "DYING 4 YOUR LOVE" on Friday, along with its stunning video. The track follows the songstress into familiar vulnerable territory, finding Snoh simultaneously longing for and second-guessing a distant love. The striking I.P.W-directed and Parris Goebel-choreographed visuals are a nod to both the future and the past, playing out the way someone may have imagined a neon-light and hologram-filled landscape of a Jetson-like 2020 back in the 1990s.
The singer also shared her limited edition merch line featuring items inspired by the video as well as her 2019 album Ugh, Those Feels Again, with 50% of sale proceeds going to Until Freedom, an organization that fights against systemic and racial injustice. You can see the collection here.

How to watch The Masked Singer if you've cut the cord
By Jen Karner 03 February 2020
The Masked Singer is a hilarious show that debuted on Fox back in January 2019. Essentially, celebrities put on wacky full-body costumes that cover even their faces. Not even the other contestants know who's singing. Your job is to try and guess who it is behind the mask as the show marches on. So far talent like T-Pain, Margaret Cho, Donny Osmond and Gladys Knight have donned masks to compete.
What the hell is The Masked Singer ?
The Masked Singer is a singing/reality/game show that sticks celebrities in full-body costume and has them sing and dance for your approval. Only, you don't know who they are. Neither do the judges, or even the host.
TMS is back with the Season three premiere. And it's back with a vengence, with the prized TV slot after Super Bowl LIV. The show will begin Sunday night, Feb. 2, 2020. This season has featureed new masked talents, new costumes, and new opportunities to guess who is singing.
The show is hosted by Nick Cannon, with Ken Jeong, Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger serving as "judges."
Yeah, it's a weird show. It's one bad edit away from being quite the car crash — which is exactly why we can't look away.

BkiUa4M5qhLAB70I2a78 | Your heat processes are to be as efficient as possible, automatable and space saving.
At the push of a button. With infrared solutions, you can achieve exactly this.
Whether engine blocks, filter housings, mirrors or carpets: there is hardly any part in industrial manufacturing that does not need to be heated at least once.
The heat must be applied at precisely the right time during the process and must not impair the efficiency of the work flow. Infrared systems adapt perfectly to highly specialised processes. They heat without contact, with high power and within seconds.
Some innovative heat processes are even made possible in the first place by infrared systems.
Thanks to its versatility, infrared heat is used for coating, welding, drying and curing.
Plantic Technologies Ltd. has developed and patented a bioplastic made of starch from not genetically engineered corn plants. The corn starch foil is used to make trays, blisters and sorting inserts in chocolate packagings. Infrared heat helps to heat the foil prior to deep-drawing.
In some bearings, an alloy of tin, copper and antimony helps reduce friction to improve their sliding properties. Infrared heat helps to apply the metal alloy to the base metal mould to achieve a good flow and adhesion of the alloy.
At Leyland Trucks, a Heraeus Noblelight carbon infrared system helps provide the necessary quantities of polyamide (PA) hoses for their assembly line in Lancashire.
Heraeus Noblelight carbon infrared emitters help Polyflor of Manchester emboss robust floor coverings and ensure improved quality.
Infrared radiation transmits energy without contact in a very short space of time. The high heat transmission capacity helps keep infrared modules small and compact, which enables fast retrofitting and saves valuable space.
Infrared emitters are adjusted precisely to product and process. If radiation wavelength, power output and even the shape of the emitters are matched precisely to the heat process, it becomes reproducible. This enables automation.
Infrared emitters react to control commands within seconds. This generates heat at the push of a button, exactly where and just as long as it is needed. This saves time, space and energy. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 2 |
