Q: Python ElementTree: How to add SubElement at VERY specific position? I want to add a subelement to an xml file, but in a very specific position, not appended to the end.
The standard way is:
subi = ET.SubElement(root[0][0], 'subi')

which is fine.
but: Let's say, root[0][0] already has two children, hence accessible via root[0][0][0] and root[0][0][1].
And I want "subi" to become the new middle child, root[0][0][1], making the original second child become the third child root[0][0][2].
Is there a way to do that? (My experiences with life and nature would say no, but I have high hopes for python=)

A: You can use Element.insert method. It allows you to specify an index.
For example, to insert before the 3rd (index: 2) element:
>>> import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
>>>
>>> root = ET.fromstring('''
... <root>
...     <first></first>
...     <second></second>
...     <third></third>
... </root>
... ''')
>>>
>>> new = ET.Element('new')
>>> root.insert(2, new)  # <-----------
>>> print(ET.tostring(root))
<root>
    <first />
    <second />
    <new /><third />
</root>

Jean-Pierre de la Croix, Ph.D.
I am a Robotics Systems Engineer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, where I am a member of the Robotic Systems Estimation, Decision, and Control group in the Mobility and Robotic Systems section. At JPL, I continue to work on multi-agent robotics for new and challenging applications, including the robotic exploration of our universe.
I recently graduated with a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, where I worked in Dr. Magnus Egerstedt's Georgia Robotics and InTelligent Systems lab on multi-agent robotics.
My disseration focused on creating new control techniques for large-scale robotic systems (swarms!), such that humans can easily and effectively interact with these complex systems.
I grew up in a small town near Frankfurt am Main, Germany, but moved to Atlanta, Georgia in 1997. In 2010, I graduated with two B.S. degrees in EE and CS from Georgia Tech with a focus on control theory, signal processing, artificial intelligence, and robotics!
I enjoy spending my free time writing software (see my GitHub page), prototyping hardware, and running as far as my legs will carry me.
Despite the collective push towards greater autonomy in robots, most applications still require human intervention to guide autonomous robots in their tasks. Existing human-robot interfaces allow a human to intuitively interact with one or a few robots; however, as the number of robots involved in a task grows large, these interfaces become less effective or even unusable due to a lack of scalability for interacting with many robots at once.
Therefore, my dissertation focused on understanding large-scale human-robot (i.e., human-swarm) interactions and developing new techniques for collectively controlling large networks of robots with just a small number of simple inputs, rather than insisting that humans guide these robots invididually or in small groups.

Russia is satisfied with the findings of the OPCW on the application in Aleppo by terrorists of sulfur mustard
MOSCOW, may 6. /TASS/. Russia is satisfied with the conclusion of the report of the Mission of the Organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons (OPCW) that in the Syrian village of Marat Umm Hosh, located in the province of Aleppo, has been applied sulfur mustard. This is stated in the published comments of Russian foreign Ministry.
"The conclusion we drew in conjunction with Syrian colleagues that the settlement of Marat Umm Hosh terrorists have been applied sulfur mustard gas, had been confirmed in the Organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons. We note this with satisfaction", – stressed in dipvedomstva.
The foreign Ministry pointed out that Russia has assisted in the investigation of the Syrian side, sending to the authorized personnel selected in the scene of the incident samples, documentary and material evidence. At the disposal of the OPCW mission materials will now be transmitted to the Joint mechanism of the OPCW-UN investigating the use of chemical weapons in Syria (CMP), which will be engaged in their learning.
The foreign Ministry of the Russian Federation urged to establish the perpetrators of the incident and those who coordinated the attack.
It also noted that the report of the human rights organization Human Rights Watch (HRW), which stated that in the alleged chemical attack in the Syrian city of Khan shaykhun was used by the Soviet bomb, is not tenable.
"Do not hold water "research" by Khan Sheyhun and mentioned "human Wrights Watch". All conclusions are based mainly on the testimony of witnesses, collected almost entirely remotely. And witness belongs only to the Syrian opposition," – said in depodesta. The foreign Ministry stressed that neither the USSR nor Russia never, under any circumstances, is not sent abroad munitions used to deliver chemical warfare agents.
"We insist on an early direction in Khan Shaykhun on the Syrian air base "Sirat", which allegedly was kept herbarias with sarin, experts, MOPS (OPCW Mission to establish facts of use of chemical weapons in Syria, MOFS – approx. TASS) to conduct a professional and impartial investigation. Achieving this goal is possible only with observance of all provided by the CWC (Convention on the prohibition of chemical weapons – approx. TASS) procedures", – stated in the message.
The incident in Khan Sheyhun, located in the Syrian province of Idlib, which was allegedly used chemical weapons occurred on April 4. According to the defense Ministry of the Russian Federation, Syrian aircraft bombed militants of the shop, where they produced toxic chemicals. Washington accused Damascus of using chemical weapons, and then on the night of April 7, the U.S. Navy on the Syrian military airport in HOMS province.

The Netherlands participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008 with the song "Your Heart Belongs to Me" written by Hind Laroussi Tahiri, Tjeerd van Zanen and Bas van den Heuvel. The song was performed by Hind, which is the artistic name of singer Hind Laroussi Tahiri who was internally selected by the Dutch broadcaster Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS) to represent the Netherlands at the 2008 contest in Belgrade, Serbia. Hind's appointment as the Dutch representative was announced on 23 November 2007, while the song, "Your Heart Belongs to Me", was presented to the public on 7 March 2008 during the Nederland 3 programme Thank God it's Friday.

The Netherlands was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 20 May 2008. Performing during the show in position 15, "Your Heart Belongs to Me" was not announced among the 10 qualifying entries of the first semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that the Netherlands placed thirteenth out of the 19 participating countries in the semi-final with 27 points.

Background

Prior to the 2008 contest, the Netherlands had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest forty-eight times since their début as one of seven countries to take part in the inaugural contest in . Since then, the country has won the contest four times: in  with the song "Net als toen" performed by Corry Brokken; in  with the song "'n Beetje" performed by Teddy Scholten; in  as one of four countries to tie for first place with "De troubadour" performed by Lenny Kuhr; and finally in  with "Ding-a-dong" performed by the group Teach-In. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the 2004 contest, the Netherlands had featured in only one final. The Dutch least successful result has been last place, which they have achieved on four occasions, most recently in the 1968 contest. The Netherlands has also received nul points on two occasions; in  and .

The Dutch national broadcaster, Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS), broadcasts the event within the Netherlands and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. The Netherlands has used various methods to select the Dutch entry in the past, such as the Nationaal Songfestival, a live televised national final to choose the performer, song or both to compete at Eurovision. However, internal selections have also been held on occasion. For 2008, the broadcaster opted to select the Dutch entry through an internal selection.

Before Eurovision

Internal selection

Following Edsilia Rombley's failure to qualify to the final in 2007 with the song "On Top of the World", the Dutch broadcaster issued a statement to the newspaper De Telegraaf in October 2007 where they revealed that they would continue to internally select both the artist and song for the Eurovision Song Contest, and that several artists had already been in contact with the broadcaster in regards to participating. Artists that were rumoured in Dutch media to be in talks with NOS included the band Bearforce 1 and 1988 Dutch Eurovision entrant Gerard Joling.

On 9 November 2007, Dutch media reported that NOS had selected singer Hind Laroussi to represent the Netherlands at the 2008 contest. Hind was confirmed as the Dutch entrant on 23 November 2007 during a press conference that that took place in Amsterdam and hosted by Gerard Dielessen. A submission period was opened on the same day where composers were able to submit their songs to the broadcaster.

On 7 March 2008, Hind's Eurovision entry, "Your Heart Belongs to Me", was presented to the public during the Nederland 3 programme Thank God it's Friday, hosted by Claudia de Breij. The official video for the song directed by Jelle Posthuma was released on 18 March 2008. "Your Heart Belongs to Me" was written by Hind herself together with Tjeerd van Zanen and Bas van den Heuvel.

At Eurovision
It was announced in September 2007 that the competition's format would be expanded to two semi-finals in 2008. According to the rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Four" (France, Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top nine songs from each semi-final as determined by televoting progress to the final, and a tenth was determined by back-up juries. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 28 January 2008, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals. The Netherlands was placed into the first semi-final, to be held on 20 May 2008. The running order for the semi-finals was decided through another draw on 17 March 2008 and the Netherlands was set to perform in position 15, following the entry from Armenia and before the entry from Finland.

The two semi-finals and the final was broadcast in the Netherlands on Nederland 1 with commentary by Cornald Maas. The Dutch spokesperson, who announced the Dutch votes during the final, was 2003 Dutch Eurovision entrant Esther Hart.

Semi-final

Hind took part in technical rehearsals on 13 and 16 May, followed by dress rehearsals on 19 and 20 May. The Dutch performance featured Hind wearing a dark blue dress with glittering elements designed by Mart Visser and performing together with two dancers and three backing vocalists. The stage colours were predominately yellow with the LED screens displaying big white chandeliers. The two dancers that joined Hind were Deniz Kumas and Serge Dominique Monpellier, while the backing vocalists were Carolina Dijkhuizen, Ellen Eeftink and Peggy Sandaal.

At the end of the show, the Netherlands was not announced among the top 10 entries in the first semi-final and therefore failed to qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that the Netherlands placed thirteenth in the semi-final, receiving a total of 27 points.

Voting

Discrimination, stress linked to poorer heart health in transgender, gender diverse adults
American Heart Association Scientific Statement
DALLAS, July 8, 2021 -- The stress of experiencing discrimination in multiple ways, including transphobia, interpersonal discrimination, violence and public policies specifically targeting transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people, is linked to higher rates of heart disease among the TGD population, according to a new scientific statement from the American Heart Association, published today in Circulation, the Association's flagship journal. A scientific statement is an expert analysis of current research and may inform future guidelines.
The statement, Assessing and Addressing Cardiovascular Health in People Who Are Transgender and Gender Diverse, examines existing research about TGD-specific cardiovascular health disparities, identifies research gaps and provides suggestions for systematically improving overall heart health and care of TGD people. The statement writing group suggests improving overall heart health within the TGD community will require a multi-pronged approach that includes health care professionals, educators, researchers and policymakers.
In terms of health, transgender, gender diverse and gender non-conforming people are considered "gender minorities." Expanding on the minority stress theory, statement writing group members documented how chronically high levels of stress faced by members of stigmatized, underrepresented populations associate with poor health outcomes and health disparities. They concluded that higher rates of cardiovascular prevalence and deaths among TGD people, while related to traditional cardiovascular risk factors, are also significantly driven by psychosocial stressors across the lifespan at multiple levels, including structural violence, discrimination, lack of affordable housing and access to health care.
"Heart health of transgender and gender diverse people is an important and understudied topic, and it's critical we highlight what we know and what we need to know about heart health among these populations," said Carl G. Streed, Jr., M.D., M.P.H., chair of the writing group for the statement, an assistant professor of internal medicine at Boston University School of Medicine and the research lead at the Center for Transgender Medicine and Surgery at Boston Medical Center. "Addressing these issues will require a focus on 'traditional' risk factors for heart attack and stroke, and a commitment to fight transphobia in order to decrease the additional stress experienced by this population."
This statement, specific to TGD persons, builds upon the Association's 2020 scientific statement, Assessing and Addressing Cardiovascular Health in Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (or Questioning) Adults, which noted that more than half (56%) of LGBTQ adults and 70% of those who are transgender or gender non-conforming reported experiencing some form of discrimination from a health care professional.
The new statement notes a growing body of research indicates TGD populations may be at a significantly greater risk for cardiovascular disease compared to their cisgender peers. Transgender men are twice as likely to have a heart attack than cisgender men and four times as likely than cisgender women. TGD people are also more likely to experience blood clots when undergoing estrogen hormone therapy. The writing group points out more investigation is urgently needed to explain these disparities.
TGD populations also face unique psychological stressors, including gender non-affirmation (e.g., being called by the incorrect pronoun), discrimination, rejection or concealment of gender identity and violence based on gender identity. These factors contribute to higher overall levels of stress, which, in turn, negatively affect heart health. Additionally, TGD people who are also part of historically excluded racial or ethnic groups experience multiple layers of stress, such as lower income levels or limited access to health care. Research on how these complex and intertwined factors affect heart health within TGD populations is limited.
Most gender identification options in a clinical or research setting include only "male" and "female," so while population-based studies can help in understanding some cardiovascular health risk factors, data on TGD people is scarce. The statement suggests studies should standardize measures of gender identity and expression to collect larger samples of underrepresented groups among TGD populations.
Data collected through electronic health records (EHRs) does present an advancement in terms of data access, however, EHRs often lack the ability to capture sociocultural factors relevant to heart health among TGD persons. It's important to note that TGD individuals who do not regularly access health care services are less likely to be included in EHR data, and TGD people who are uncomfortable disclosing gender identity to health care professionals will be unlikely to be identified as TGD in EHR systems.
While the ability to document sexual orientation and gender identity has been required for electronic health records since 2018, additional steps are needed to ensure culturally responsive and supportive care. The statement details the critical need for researchers and clinicians to use gender-affirming pronouns and obtain an anatomy inventory where appropriate, noting that assumptions about a TGD person's identity or anatomy may negatively impact clinical decisions.
The writing group suggests increased training across health professions would enhance clinical practices and foster more compassionate care for TGD persons. While many institutions acknowledge the need for TGD educational content, efforts to include these topics into clinical curricula have not progressed. The statement suggests a collaborative effort with organizational-level mandates across governing bodies is needed to create a curriculum that encompasses gender affirming hormone therapy, surgical procedures, anatomy-based preventive health, social determinants of health and the proper assessment of sex and gender in health care settings.
While the statement emphasizes existing data is limited, it reviews research on disparities among TGD people as it relates to the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 to measure ideal heart health and how hormone therapy may affect heart health for TGD people. Current research on blood pressure, lipid profiles or blood sugar levels for TGD persons is too sparse and inconclusive, although the writing group does suggest several areas of Life's Simple 7 that are directly linked to heart attacks and strokes. The evaluation of existing research found:
TGD people are more likely (24%) to report tobacco use than the remainder of the U.S. population (18%).
Transgender men are less likely to exercise, especially in older age.
TGD persons undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy are more physically active, which may be because they report being more satisfied with their bodies.
TGD youth report eating more fast food and using unsafe ways of trying to manage their weight (e.g., diet pills, fasting or laxative abuse).
TGD people report overall higher body mass index (BMI), yet they may experience additional stress about their weight since many surgeons have strict BMI cut-offs above which they will not perform gender-affirming surgeries.
"Discrimination also contributes to disparities in social determinants of health among TGD populations, and many TGD persons are at even greater risk of heart disease and stroke due to transphobia and experiences of discrimination based on gender non-conformity," said Lauren B. Beach, Ph.D., J.D., vice-chair of the statement writing group and research assistant professor in the department of medical social sciences at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago. "Systematic transphobic discrimination results in a higher burden of workplace discrimination, job loss and unemployment among TGD populations. Combined with experiences of discrimination in health care settings, lack of access to a stable income further limits health care access among TGD people. These structural factors combine to result simultaneously in higher levels of chronic stress and in lower levels of resources to prevent or manage a broad variety of health conditions including cardiovascular disease."
The writing group also cited studies showing that TGD persons experience disproportionate burdens of additional cardiovascular risk factors, including living with HIV, vascular dysfunction, trouble sleeping and alcohol abuse.
The writing group acknowledges limited data and encourages further research to understand the numerous and complex issues faced by TGD individuals and as a community. The statement emphasizes available information does illustrate that TGD people often experience challenges due to unique stressors, including internalizing gender identity, sexual victimization and concerns about hormone therapies and gender-affirming surgeries.
"Data specific to transgender and gender diverse persons lag behind what is needed to understand and improve individual and community heart health. The information available is rapidly improving, though," Streed said. "This statement summarizes the available evidence showing that addressing traditional cardiovascular risk factors and decreasing stigma-linked stress, together, would improve the heart health of TGD people. By focusing on the unique issues affecting the well-being of transgender and gender diverse persons, we have the potential to do better for everyone."
This scientific statement was prepared by the volunteer writing group on behalf of the American Heart Association's Council on Peripheral Vascular Disease; the Council on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology; the Council on Cardiovascular and Stroke Nursing; the Council on Cardiovascular Radiology and Intervention, the Council on Hypertension; and the Stroke Council. The statement is endorsed by the American Academy of Physician Assistants. The American Medical Association affirms the educational benefit of this scientific statement.

Lions' Matt Prater 'pretty upset' with himself after 2 misses Sunday Detroit Lions kicker Prater had been a perfect 17 for 17 on field goals of less than 50 yards before Sunday's miss from 43 yards Check out this story on Freep.com: http://on.freep.com/2ntMKJc

Free Press columnist Jeff Seidel and sports writer Dave Birkett break down the Lions' 44-20 loss to the Ravens on Sunday, Dec. 3, 2017, in Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Md. — Matt Prater and Justin Tucker are two of the best kickers in the NFL, but only one of them kicked like it Sunday.
Tucker made all three of his field goals in the Baltimore Ravens' 44-20 win over the Detroit Lions, and Prater missed an extra point and a 43-yard kick.
"It's really disappointing," Prater said. "Anytime you don't make kicks it's really disappointing and very frustrating, especially shorter kicks and extra points. First one I missed on the season and it's just a kick that I should make every time, so I'm pretty upset with myself for leaving two out there."
Prater, who had been a perfect 17 for 17 on field goals of less than 50 yards, pushed a 43-yard attempt wide left on the Lions' first possession of the second quarter.

The Ravens, leading 3-0 at the time, scored two plays later after Mike Wallace beat the Lions secondary deep for a 66-yard gain. Joe Flacco followed with a 1-yard touchdown pass to Ben Watson.
Prater said the snap-hold was "perfect" and he just "didn't hit it like I should hit it."
In the third quarter, after the Lions scored touchdowns on two of their first three possessions out of halftime, Prater missed his first extra point of the season wide left.
He said he was under the weather during the week, but that was no excuse for his play Sunday.
"I wrapped the ball, that's why it went left," Prater said. "It was just disappointing because I felt like I had a pretty good pregame and didn't want to overanalyze it after missing the first one and overadjust and push one, so I tried hitting the same thing and just wrapped it like I did the first one. So it's disappointing and hopefully it won't happen again."

M.A.S.H. unit
The Lions started their seventh different offensive line group of the season, and they're headed for an eighth different lineup next week.
Right tackle Rick Wagner suffered a potentially serious left-ankle injury in the second quarter when Ravens safety Eric Weddle fell into his leg after a sack of Matthew Stafford.
Lions coach Jim Caldwell said he did not immediately have an update on Wagner's injury after the game.

With Wagner out, the Lions initially moved Brian Mihalik to right tackle before replacing him with Corey Robinson.
Right guard T.J. Lang left briefly with a foot injury and was replaced by Don Barclay, but when he returned midway through the third quarter, the Lions moved slid Robinson to right tackle, benched Mihalik, and moved Barclay to left guard.
Graham Glasgow, who started at center in place of the injured Travis Swanson on Sunday, is the only Lions offensive lineman who's played every snap this year.
"We all just need to perform better than we did today and that's something that we'll work on," Glasgow said. "Whoever comes in, we need to play well."

Stafford 'a baller'
Though Stafford committed two turnovers, took three sacks and left with a swollen right hand Sunday, he did enough to impressive Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs.
"That guy is a baller," Suggs said. "He showed why they gave him that check. He's a baller. That's why he's getting paid."
Stafford, who signed a record five-year, $135 million deal before the start of the season, completed a franchise record 20 straight passes at one point but injured his hand when Suggs stepped on him inadvertently after a fourth-quarter interception.
Stafford, who finished 24 of 29 for 292 yards, said he wasn't aware of his consecutive pass streak during the game.
"I had no idea," he said. "That's a really, really good defense we just played. We knew it was going to be a tough game. There are going to be times when we're going to struggle on offense and we just had to keep plugging away and we made some big plays, some guys stepped up and made some great catches. Obviously just didn't do enough of it to get it done."

Two years ago, legendary manager Shep Gordon was lying in the hospital, recovering from gastrointestinal surgery, when Mike Myers approached him with an idea he'd been obsessing over: a documentary about Gordon's life. Gordon – a Zelig-like figure who'd befriended everyone from Michael Douglas to the Dalai Lama and was best known as Alice Cooper's manager – reluctantly agreed. "I was heavily medicated and must have been feeling sorry for myself," says Gordon.

Thanks for that - I can assure you it was completely impromptu! I didn't even know Rob had brought the lyrics along until we were halfway through the challenge.
After you, madam - I'll wait for the next direct train to Mill Hill East.
Thank you! It happened, and judging by the applause, the small audience of about 30 folk really appreciated it!
I may be recording it soon - the place where my community choir rehearses also has a recording studio, and the leader of the choir is quite keen for me to record some stuff there. Could become a minor hit!
This 'minor hit' has just had another outing - at part of a soirée I performed yesterday at a retirement housing complex in Guildford. The small audience of 20 or so really enjoyed it!
Oh brilliant! I haven't got round to recording it yet - maybe I'll nudge the choir leader again. 513 views on YouTube!
Minor hit to become major hit, perhaps!
You just wait until I record "Na-La-Na-La-Na"
Just to say that I'm giving a performance of a cut-down version of this at an open mic event tonight - just the Metropolitan, Bakerloo and Piccadilly lines since I thought the audience might get bored otherwise! I'm combining it with another couple of railway-themed songs, "Chattanooga Choo-Choo" (to which I've rewritten the lyrics so that it's about a journey from London to Inverness) and "Slow Train" by Flanders and Swann. Hope it goes well.

Didn't go too badly. Small audience - one of them said it was the nuttiest song he'd heard me perform so far!
If you're a fan of these silly "list" songs here's another one I wrote including all the counties of England. I'm performing it tomorrow at a much bigger event - a bit nervous!
I can't see it going down badly anywhere, to be honest - having seen it performed at last year's Zone 1! Except for a Jeremy Clarkson convention, I guess.
Speaking of last year's performance, I gather there won't be a similar performance this year?


Two tiny satellites billed as the world's smallest space telescopes will launch into orbit Monday (Feb. 25) on a mission to study the brightest stars in the night sky.
While tiny nanosatellites have launched into space before, they have been mainly used to study Earth or test new spaceflight technologies, but the BRITE satellites will be the first to peer into the cosmos, their builders say. The diminutive spacecraft are less than 8 inches (20 centimeters) wide and weigh less than 15.5 pounds (7 kilograms). Once in orbit, they are expeted to observe the brightest stars (from Earth's perspective), including those that make up well-known constellations like Orion, the Hunter.
"BRITE is expected to demonstrate that nanosatellites are now capable of performance that was once thought impossible for such small spacecraft," said Cordell Grant, manager of satellite systems for the Space Flight Laboratory at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS), where the satellites were designed.
This panoramic view shows India's PSLV-C20 rocket on the First Launch Pad with the Mobile Service Tower at a distance. The rocket will launch seven satellites into orbit on Feb. 25, 2013, from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, India.
One of the BRITE satellites launching Monday was designed and built at the Space Flight Laboratory. The other was designed by the center, but assembled in Austria, university officials said in a statement. They are two of seven satellites set to blast off with India's rocket launch on Monday.
The nanosatellites can only fit small telescopes, so they won't be capturing amazing high-resolution images of the cosmos, Grant explained in the statement. But they will be able to observe and record changes in a star's brightness over time. Such observations could help scientists find spots on the star, an orbiting planet or secondary star, or "starquakes" caused by oscillations within the star itself.
The nanosatellites can monitor their target stars from whatever orbit they are placed on. They just need to be above the atmosphere to avoid the twinkling, or scintillating effect, that overwhelms stars' relatively small changes in brightness, researchers said.
By keeping the satellites small, they can be built faster and at a lower cost than their larger counterparts, and be launched as a piggyback payload on rockets carrying larger spacecraft, UTIAS officials said.
"A nanosatellite can take anywhere from six months to a few years to develop and test, but we typically aim for two years or less," Grant said.
You can watch the launch of NEOSSat live via India's official Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle webcast.

Q: Hue service can't start I'm running a cloudera cluster of 16 machines in university. A few days ago some machines failed and I had to move their hosted service to other machines. One of these service was Hue. I tried to move the server but when I try to launch it, I get thoses messages:
Command failed to start: com.cloudera.cmf.service.config.ConfigGenException: Unable to generate config file hue.ini for role with type KT_RENEWER: null

Command failed to start: com.cloudera.cmf.service.config.ConfigGenException: Unable to generate config file hue.ini for role with type BEESWAX_SERVER: null

Command failed to start: com.cloudera.cmf.service.config.ConfigGenException: Unable to generate config file hue.ini for role with type HUE_SERVER: null

from its roles.
I did some researches and see similar case with the same errors and the solution was to check again Hue's configuration and set a role for web HDFS, oozie...
But in my case, all roles are set for Hue so I really don't see where does the problem come from...

A: Did you try to remove and recreate the roles?

Honest Brokers? American and Norwegian Facilitation of Israeli-Palestinian Negotiations (1991-93)
By Sanders, Jacinta
The official Israel-Palestinian talks in Washington, which commenced in December 1991 in the wake of the Madrid conference, proceeded through ten rounds without arriving at an agreement. As a mediating power, the United States failed to use its considerable influence to bring the two sides together. While the U.S. had been aware of the Oslo channel, the revelation in August 1993 that Israel and the PLO had initialed an agreement negotiated via the secret talks in Norway stunned the U.S. administration.
This article examines the extent to which the respective success and failure of the Oslo and Washington negotiations can be attributed to the mediating powers involved - though the notion of the success of the Oslo channel is queried. The contrasting styles and intentions of the mediators are explored, and the article poses the question of whether Norway implemented a U.S. agenda, and whether a mediator's neutrality can constitute complicity in the nature of an agreement reached between a strong and a weak negotiating party.
The American mediators of the official Israel-Palestinian talks in Washington were as stunned as the rest of the world when it was revealed in August 1993 that Israel and the PLO had secretly negotiated a peace agreement. Although the U.S. had been kept informed of the progress of the Oslo negotiations, it had seriously underestimated the prospects of Oslo succeeding where the official talks were not. The contrast between the stagnant Washington talks, poised to enter their eleventh round, and the success facilitated by Norway, a minor power with little strategic interest in the Middle East, served to highlight America's failure to bring Israel and the Palestinians together. While a convergence of international, regional and domestic forces on both sides had ripened the climate for negotiations, it was only the strict secrecy, careful Norwegian facilitation, and the direct inclusion of the PLO which permitted those forces to culminate in an agreement.
As the end of the Oslo interim period approaches, the hindsight of five years allows for more definite conclusions to be drawn regarding the nature and consequences of the secret negotiations in Norway. The Oslo channel's initial success in leading to an Israel-PLO agreement must be qualified by its commensurate failure to secure a substantive or enduring peace. The success itself was bought at the heavy price of deferring a resolution on the conflict's core issues: the refugee right of return, settlements, sovereignty, and the status of Jerusalem. This is an irony of Oslo; the very factors critical to its initial success have impeded subsequent progress towards peace.(1) Negotiated within a framework set by an imbalance of power, and permeated with the sterile and calculating pragmatism of 'Realpolitik', it was evident from the outset that the accords contained the strong potential to simply embody "war by other means."(2) This article, therefore, seeks to distinguish between the initial success of the Oslo process and its long-term failure, and also between the varying motivations of the individual players.
There is much about the Oslo channel and indeed the public Washington talks that remains unknown or disputed; the researcher must allow for competing narratives, the vicissitudes of participants' memories, and the desire to reconstruct and reinterpret events in a more complementary manner. Nonetheless, a generally consistent picture of both channels has emerged. With the above caveats in mind, this article addresses the ways in which American and Norwegian facilitation shaped the course of the two negotiating tracks. To what extent does each bear responsibility for the outcomes? What would have been the consequences had either acted differently? The focus is upon the contrasts between the U.S. and Norway's motivations and methods and on the interplay between the channels. Although Norway acted with relative autonomy, it was not immune from American influence. …

Shethar, Lois
Lois Shethar Gordon U.S. Navy WWII
Died On: 4/19/2013
Street Address: Stuyvesant Avenue
Lois Shethar was born on January 13, 1924, in Rye, New York, her father, John, was 31, and her mother, Gwendolen, was 34. She had one brother and two sisters. She died on April 22, 2013, in Buffalo, Wyoming, at the age of 89. In Rye her family lived on Stuyvesant Avenue. Lois served as an officer in the U.S. Navy during World War II.
Lois Shethar
Lois Shethar in Naval School
Lois Shethar, 20, Milton Point, Rye, was enrolled recently at the Naval Training School Yeomen-W on the Iowa State Teachers College campus. Cedar Falls, Iowa. The course of yeoman study includes shorthand, typing, Naval correspondence, records and forms, and current events.
RYE CHRONICLE Friday, October 27. 1944
Lois (Loie) Shethar Gordon was a proud member of the ''Greatest Generation''. She was born in NewYork City, January 13th, 1924 to John and Gwendolen Shethar.
Growing up in Rye, New York, Loie was a competitive athlete throughout her life. At various points, she played tennis in the National Clay Court Championships against Althea Gibson and served as a winning crew member in several successful North American sailing championships. She also rode in various top level horse shows, including Madison Square Garden in New York City.
After graduating from Miss Porter's School in Farmington, CT, Loie felt called to duty as were so many and, in 1944, enlisted in the United States Navy Waves. After training, she was stationed at the Sand Point Naval Air Station in Washington State. She received her honorable discharge from the Waves in 1946 and proudly carried her discharge card for years.
She then worked for the fledgling United Nations until her 1948 marriage to Spencer M. Smith and subsequent move to Oregon. Several moves later and with her son, Spencer, and daughter, Pamela, Loie was back on the East Coast, where she was active in the Episcopal Church, Junior League and Rye Historical Society. Retirement led to summers on Cape Cod and winters in Tucson. After a decade of ''lonely years'', Loie and Crawford (Crow) Gordon fell in love. Crow and Loie were married in 1998 and have resided ever since at the Gordon Ranch near Kaycee, Wy, where she grew to love the life, the land and, particularly, the people.
Loie leaves behind a legacy of love, respect and an active life lived with dignity. Her children and family will sorely miss her and reluctantly relinquish her to the Almighty.
She cherished a verse taken from a Prayer of a Wave: I have then but to thank you. I cannot ask for more. Thank you for our country, for our people free and brave. And make me ever worthy, Lord, to be a Navy Wave.
Loie is survived by her husband Crow Gordon of Kaycee; one son, Spencer Smith and his wife Patricia of Seattle, Washington; one daughter, Pam Jackson of Tucson, Arizona; 1 step-son Mark Gordon and his wife Jennie of Buffalo; one step-daughter Val Gordon-Johnson and her husband Doug of New York, New York; three grandsons, Grant Smith of Spokane, Washington, Dr. Marc Smith of Montpellier, France and Alex Smith of Seattle; two step-granddaughters, Ann Gordon of New York, New York and Bea Gordon of Buffalo; and two step-grandsons, Spencer Young of Buffalo and Aaron Young also of Buffalo. She was preceded in death by her parents; one son-in-law Dr. Rockwell Jackson; two sisters and one brother. Her children, Spencer (Pat), Pamela, Mark (Jennie), Valerie (Doug) and grandchildren wish to thank the wonderful crew of the Gordon Ranch, her many dear Kaycee friends and unfailingly supportive caregivers.
Funeral Services for Loie Gordon, 89 year old Kaycee resident who passed away Friday afternoon at the Johnson County Health Care Center in Buffalo, will be held Friday, April 26th at 11:00 a.m. from the Harold Jarrard Park Building in Kaycee with Reverend Carole Buckingham officiating. A private family Eucharist will be held earlier that day at the Episcopal Church in Kaycee. A reception will follow the funeral at the Harold Jarrard Park Building. Interment will be in the Greenwood Union Cemetery in Rye, New York. Donations in Mrs. Gordon's memory may be made to the Hoof Prints of the Past Museum, the Kaycee Library or the Suzie Bowling Lawrence Hospice, in care of the Harness Funeral Home at 351 N. Adams in Buffalo.

AN/TPQ-46 radars give short range, 360-degree coverage of artillery, unguided rocket and mortar projectiles in flight. Formerly called the Lightweight Countermortar Radar, the AN/TPQ-46 complements the directional medium-range AN/TPQ-36 and long-range AN/TPQ-37 radars.
The first purpose of these radars is alerting friendly personnel in the danger area, but also to give point-of-origin information to counterbattery weapons, and to cue defensive counter-rocket, artillery and mortar (C-RAM) systems. The C-RAM and counterbattery missions are complementary; C-RAM destroys projectiles already launched, while counterbattery destroys their launcher.
They are also assigned to the target acquisition function of Stryker Brigade Combat Teams.

Misty Copeland at Hollywood Bowl
By Andrew Anderson on	 July 13, 2017 &nbspAnalysis	Dance, News
The Los Angeles Philharmonic has opened its summer concert season at the Hollywood Bowl with an appearance from Misty Copeland. LA Phil's opening night at the Bowl is always a big occasion, made more so this year by Copeland's star turn.
The American Ballet Theatre (ABT) principal performed alongside fellow dancers Marcelo Gomes, Natalia Osipova and Sergei Polunin, under the baton of Gustavo Dudamel. It is estimated more than 16,000 people were in attendance, with the dancers receiving a rapturous response.
The programme included excerpts from ballets such as Tchaikovsky's The Sleeping Beauty and Swan Lake; Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet; and Adolphe Adam's Giselle.
LA Phil's summer season at the Hollywood Bowl features guest appearances from Jean-Yves Thibaudet (27 July), Vasily Petrenko (3 August), Joshua Bell (29 August) and John Williams (3 September). The final LA Phil concert at the Bowl is on 16 September.
