Action urban fantasy romanceFun action American light novel! I can't call it groundbreaking, but I liked it alot, so who cares? Thank you Brandon! I look forward to more! You do a really good job of writing fight scenes of people with special powers. Also, this one wasn't illustrated. I did miss that. Where's Kirsten? Anyway, liked it a lot, thank you!
Decent bookI enjoyed this book. It was simple but fun and reminded of an anime with how the characters acted. And unlike some of the other reviewers I think that the author did finish the main point of this book. It wasn't a cliff hanger.
A great read, that once started you have to finish. Even though almost would have expected one of the mentioned LN series to be American Kitsune, but the mains do have good tastes in LNs too! (Even with that oversight).
Okayish. A bit darker than previous works, and certainly setting up for a sequel. As far as the light novel genre goes, though, it is servicable.

Britons bemoan 'annual poppy outrage'
Tedium of yearly controversies surrounding symbolic flower worn to remember fallen soldiers evident in online cynicism.
by Shafik Mandhai
A row between Theresa May, the UK prime minister, and FIFA over the latter's refusal to allow players to wear poppies has prompted an outpouring of cynicism online.
British Twitter users are bemoaning what they say has become an annual controversy surrounding the symbolic flower, which is worn to commemorate those who fell in war in the run-up to Remembrance Day on November 11.
On Wednesday, May called FIFA "utterly outrageous" after it banned footballers from wearing the poppy during a forthcoming World Cup qualifying match between Scotland and England.
"Our football players want to recognise and respect those who have given their lives for our safety and security," May said.
"I think a clear message is going from this House [parliament] that we want our players to be able to wear poppies."
FIFA stance condemned
May's comments came after angry headlines in British papers condemned FIFA's stance.
This year, alongside the traditional anti-poppy and pro-poppy faultlines, many Britons have been posting sarcastic and sardonic tweets to highlight how "predictable" the issue has become.
"The now annual poppy outrage should be a public holiday," wrote one user.
Another said: "Middle-aged white Brits are angry on Facebook must be poppy season."
Ian Dunt, a journalist, wrote: "They can take poppies off, put on their kit, run around a pitch for 90 mins, then put them back on and remember for the rest of the day."
Anger lampooned
The satirical website News Thump lampooned the anger opponents of the poppy faced with an article titled "People wearing poppies with leaf at wrong angle could face death penalty".
Others took on an earnest tone, pointing out the pettiness of discussing the wearing of poppies while there were more important issues facing English football, and society generally.
"Lol imagine if the FA acted as strenuously against FIFA on problems like endemic homophobia and racism as they do on wearing a poppy," said artist Huw Lemmey.
May's attack on FIFA is the latest in a long line of poppy-related controversies.
The poppy is a mark of respect. The FA should defy Fifa, pay the fine, put poppies on #eng shirts and auction them for British Legion. 1/2

Last year, Irish footballer James McClean was the subject of tabloid anger for refusing to wear the poppy on his shirt, citing historic British conduct in his native Northern Ireland.
In 2014, members of the British Muslim community were divided over the release of a headscarf emblazoned with the flower.
Earlier controversies involved members of the Celtic supporters group, the Green Brigade, unveiling an anti-poppy banner at a match after the Scottish club decided to include the image on its players' shirts.
"Your deeds would shame all the devils in Hell. Ireland, Iraq, Afghanistan. No bloodstained poppy on our Hoops," the banner unfurled by supporters of the Irish-rooted club read.
'Old and imperial wars'
News anchors, such as Channel 4's Jon Snow, have also attracted controversy for refusing to wear the symbol.
Dr Katy Sian, a lecturer in sociology at the University of York, told Al Jazeera sections of the British establishment have incorrectly tried to equate reluctance to wear poppies with opposition to British values.
"It continues to vex politicians and sections of the media when high-profile figures are seen not to be wearing the poppy on Remembrance Day, with accusations that they are in opposition to Britain," Sian told Al Jazeera.

"There are a number of reasons why some do not wear the poppy; in the case of the footballers, FIFA prohibit political, religious, or commercial messages on shirts.
"For others the poppy is both representative and symbolic of old and new imperial wars.
"The decision not to partake in jingoistic displays of allegiance is therefore less about a deep hatred of Britain and more about a resistance to crude nationalism, racism, colonialism, and the nature of past and current global conflicts.
"Of course for some it might be more simple - they just don't want to wear it."

The Vanuatu Supreme Court is due to sit this afternoon to rule on an opposition claim that the speaker acted illegally in stopping its motions for an extra-ordinary meeting of parliament and a vote of no confidence in the government.
The opposition had the requisite number of signatures for the motions but by the time the speaker, George Wells, considered them several government MPs who'd signed retracted their support.
Mr Wells ruled he couldn't allow the motions to go ahead.
The opposition leader, Maxime Carlot Korman, went to court saying Mr Wells acted illegally.
There's been preliminary legal discussion over the past two days and he says a formal hearing is this afternoon.
"The court will hear the case really now and will make a big decision on it. Today at 3 o'clock."

Spencer Haywood turns 'Winning Time' into his time
An unflattering portrayal in the HBO series "Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty" turns into a blessing in disguise for Las Vegas resident Spencer Haywood.
By Ron Kantowski / Las Vegas Review-Journal

Updated May 8, 2022 - 10:44 am

The penultimate episode of "Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty" ended with Spencer Haywood putting out a contract on his former teammates while in a cocaine-fueled haze.
Suffice it to say that HBO's portrayal of the longtime Las Vegas resident during the advent of the team's glory days was less than flattering.
But sometimes even the darkest of clouds can have a purple and gold lining.
Haywood was in Los Angeles recently to help Kareem Abdul-Jabbar celebrate his 75th birthday. He was with the big man, Magic Johnson and James Worthy at a Lakers game against Oklahoma City when players from both sides, led by LeBron James, came up to greet them.
"I think they're gonna grab Kareem, but they're grabbing me and saying 'thank you, thank you' … and I'm like, what the (expletive) is going on?' " Haywood, 73, said Friday from his home in Southern Highlands.
Unbeknownst to most of the young NBA players, at least not before it was mentioned in "Winning Time" — the final episode of Season One airs Sunday — was the Hall of Famer's antitrust suit against the NBA that went all the way to the Supreme Court.
The league ultimately agreed to a settlement that allowed players to enter the NBA before their college class had graduated, resulting in a $33 billion windfall in salaries for those who came after him, according to Haywood.
"Why are y'all recognizing me now?" the former power forward said about the many fist bumps he received at the Lakers' game. "They said because of 'Winning Time.' I said, 'Ain't this some (expletive).'"
The former American Basketball Association MVP and four-time NBA All-Star said reliving some of his darkest days via the HBO series and actor Wood Harris, who plays him, was "rough."
"But I'm not like Kareem, Magic, Jerry West and everybody who's cutting it down," Haywood said. "It's pretty true because I did have a fall. They have taken the worst year of my life and made it into a movie.
"I know that everybody else is mad. But from my experience on that team, I think 95 percent of (what was shown) is true."
He said many of the players who approached him in Los Angeles and reached out via text messages and email said they want to contribute to the retirement home for NBA and WNBA players that Haywood wants to build in Summerlin alongside the Roseman University College of Medicine, where he serves on the advisory council.
He also hosts an Amazon Music podcast — recent topics have included his advocacy for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (which he said led to his substance abuse) and other mental health issues — and Friday taped an episode with the actors who played Kareem and Magic in "Winning Time."
To top it off, Amazon has even raised the rental price of "Spencer Haywood: Full Court" — a 2016 documentary about his rise from impoverished beginnings in Mississippi to induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame — from 99 cents to $1.99.
"The stock market is falling, but I'm going up in value," Haywood said with a hearty laugh.
"I was working out the other day, and my trainer said with all this publicity you're getting, maybe you can even get a 10-day contract."
Wood Harris absolutely kills his role as Spencer Haywood (just like every other role he has).

Q: csv upload to datatable having comma in column cell as string using C# I am using split function to upload csv to datatable, but if it gets comma as a string it separates it as a different column.

    }
}

Can you please help me with this??

A: Presumably the field containing a comma is quoted.  You can't parse CSV using String.Split on the delimiter in this case.
Either use one of the many third-party CSV parsers that google knows about, or use the TextFieldParser class in the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace of the .NET framework.

Best Wireless Chargers for Your Smartphone and Other Devices
Consumer Reports finds that paying more doesn't always mean faster charging or added convenience
Wireless chargers have become a popular tech accessory for people looking to power up their smartphone without adding more cords to their lives.
While the most basic wireless chargers cost less than $20, some run more than $100. How do you know which one to buy? And what does paying more get you, if anything?
To help answer those questions, Consumer Reports tested a half-dozen wireless chargers ranging in price from $25 to $60.
First, our lab technicians measured how long it took for each device to fully charge both an iPhone 11 Pro Max and a Samsung Galaxy S10. (Note that you need a phone that's compatible with wireless charging to use any of these devices.) Then testers averaged those scores.

They also looked at how easy and convenient the chargers were to use. Testers noted whether they included features such as multicolored LED lights that make it easy to see whether a phone is still charging or has finished. Devices that use widely available—and therefore easy to replace—cables were specifically noted, as was the one device we tested that can charge two phones at the same time.
While there were some differences in charging speeds, all the products powered up the phones in a reasonable amount of time and didn't short out when sprayed with a small amount of water. (We threw in that test because some of these chargers spend their life on spots like kitchen counters.)
When Apple's MagSafe charger launched in the fall, we ran tests on it, too. Click here for those results.
However, we did notice some key differences to take into account when you shop.
Before we get to the detailed results, which are available to CR members, there are a few things to understand about wireless chargers.
First, they aren't designed to give your phone a quick burst of juice on the go. For that, it's better to plug your phone into an outlet. Wireless chargers are best for when you're sitting at your desk for a few hours or about to hit the sack at night.
On the other hand, you can use a wireless charger for both iPhones and Android devices—some will even charge more than one device at a time—helping to cut down on a rat's nest of tangled cords.
That's a big perk for me. As someone who reviews smartphones and other mobile devices for a living and a mom of two phone-obsessed kids, my wireless chargers play a key role in keeping everything powered and reducing the sometimes crazy number of cords plugged into power strips all over the apartment.
With wireless chargers you don't need to hunt for and untangle the proper cord from under a table when a particular device needs juice. That's no fun, especially if you're ready to call it a day and catch some zzz's.
What to Look for in a Wireless Charger
All the chargers we tested are Qi-compatible. (Qi is pronounced "chee.") Developed by the Wireless Power Consortium, it has become an almost universal charging standard.
In addition, these wireless chargers all support Samsung's Fast Charge technology—if you have any relatively high-end Samsung phone from recent years, they should provide extra-fast charging.
The fastest model by far in our test is the Samsung 15W Qi Certified Wireless Charging Stand, $60, with an average charging time of 2 hours and 30 minutes. But what I really like about the Samsung is the design. As the name implies, it's a stand, rather than a flat pad. That makes it easier to see the time and notifications on your phone while you charge it.
That's particularly convenient on a nightstand, where it keeps you from having to fumble to see the time in the middle of the night. You can also place your phone on the stand horizontally for better video viewing.
For some people, a multidevice charger is the way to go. If you have more than one phone to charge, that can be a space saver. And it didn't take the model we tested, the Anker PowerWave 10W Charger, $50, any more time to power up two phones than it did one.
There are also models out there that include specific charging spots for your smartwatch, wireless earbuds, and other compatible devices, further reducing the need for plugs and cables. (We didn't test any of these chargers this time around.)
Note that our charging times can help you compare the charges, but how long it takes your phone to charge may vary. For one thing, it depends on the capacity of the battery—it takes longer to fill up a bigger tank, right?
Here are the detailed test results.
Samsung 15W
CHARGING: Based on time required to fully charge an Apple iPhone 11 Pro and a Samsung Galaxy S10 5G.
EASE OF USE: Based on how well the charger helps you properly position a device on the charging pad, verify that charging is under way, and confirm that charging is complete.
This model has a built-in cooling fan and a gridded surface that lets air flow behind the device, which is meant to allow for faster charging. As a small trade-off, the charger is bulkier than most of its competitors.
The angled stand also allows you to view a phone's screen in portrait or landscape position as it charges. The LED status indicator tells you when power is on, the device is charging, and the charging is complete. The model features a proprietary power cable, which could be a problem if you misplace it. It's also relatively short at 3 feet, 2 inches long.
Buy at: Amazon (White), Amazon (Black), Best Buy (White), Best Buy (Black), B&H (White), B&H (Black)
Samsung 9W
This model is relatively compact and has a built-in cooling fan for faster charging. The round status indicator changes color when the device is fully charged but takes up to 30 seconds to alert you if the device is positioned incorrectly on the charging pad—that can be a nuisance if you've already walked away and don't notice. The 4-foot-long standard microUSB power cable can be replaced without much hassle.
Buy at: Amazon, B&H, Best Buy
Anker PowerWave 10W
This model can charge two devices at once, and that extra utility does not affect the speed, according to our tests. One device or two, the charging times are roughly the same. The unit also has versatile LED status indicators that tell you when the power is on, the device is charging, and the voltage is correct (in case you inadvertently use the wrong power adapter). The indicators do not, however, inform you when the device is fully charged. The unit features a proprietary 4-foot-10-inch power cable and plug, which requires an AC outlet.
Buy at: Best Buy
Belkin BOOST UP 10W
This model is compact, lightweight, and easy to use. Its LED status indicator tells you when charging is underway but not when the device is fully charged. The standard USB power cord is 4 feet, 1 inch long.
Buy at: Amazon, Belkin, Best Buy, Target, Walmart
Mophie Charge Stream Pad+ 10W
This model is compact but slightly heavier than most (7.5 ounces with cable and adapter). It has a nonslip, rubberized coating on the charging surface. The small, dim LED status indicator remains lit even after the device is fully charged. The standard microUSB cable is high-quality and a generous 5 feet, 1 inch long.
Buy at: Amazon, B&H, Staples, Zagg Brands/Mophie
Insignia 10W
This model is compact, lightweight, and easy to use. The LED status indicator lets you know when your phone is charging and turns off when the device is fully powered up. The standard microUSB power cable measures 3 feet, 4 inches long.

A Career In Policing – Is It Right For You?
The life of a police officer is one that is often glamorized in films. Meanwhile, the thought of having a positive impact on the community is a very appealing aspect too. Before rushing into this type of career, though, it's imperative that you know what you're signing up for.
A little insight goes a long way as you look to make the best possible decision. So, let's take a closer look at the career you can expect to have.
At times, police work can be very exciting. From following suspects to analyzing crime mysteries, it's enough to keep your mind occupied like no other job on the planet. In reality, though, this is only a small portion of the work. Appreciating the additional elements is crucial if you want to make a smart decision.
Maintaining peace within the neighborhood often relies on less glamorous tasks. In truth, having human empathy and an analytical brain is often far more valuable than being able to handle a car or gun. Meanwhile, paperwork and organization are crucial attributes that will consume a lot of your time.
Climbing the career ladder within the police force is a long and hard-fought affair. In addition to proving your worth with experience, it may be necessary to take a BA Policing degree. These can be completed in your time, which is a bonus. However, it can take several years before you reach the senior positions that you crave.
On the other hand, there's no question that the emotional and financial rewards can be huge. Given that many of the skills are transferable into other careers too, this is a very positive factor. Still, it is important to appreciate how age and other life factors may influence your career in the field. Rushing in without careful consideration simply isn't a solution.
Getting into the police force isn't always easy. Furthermore, you must acknowledge the fact that switching things up may be a little harder than in some roles. Policing isn't a job where you can travel with work. The fundamental features are similar across the board. Still, you will always need to understand individual territories. Therefore, even permanent relocations are limited.
In truth, budget cuts in some territories also mean it's often difficult to find better roles in new districts. After all, those positions are often filled internally. Of course, this isn't an issue for those that are happy to climb one career ladder for many years. For those desiring a regular change of scenery, though, this is a factor to consider.
It takes a special type of person with specific skills to become a successful police officer. Moreover, it's a job that requires a long-term commitment. Still, if you fit the bill, you could be the perfect addition to the 'old bill'. When this is the case, there's no doubt that it's the most rewarding career of all.

Q: Covering space induced by properly discontinuous group action I'm reading from "Galois Groups and Fundamental Groups" of Szamuely about covering spaces.
Given an even, a.k.a. properly discontinuous, continuous action of a group $G$ on $Y$ topological space. Then there is the following:
Lemma: If $Y$ is connected, then the projection $\pi_G : Y \rightarrow Y/G $ is a covering map of $Y$ onto $Y/G$.
Proof: The map is surjective, then given $x \in Y/G$ there exists an open neighbourhood $V \ni x$ such that $V= \pi_G (U)$ and $U$ has the property that $\{ gU \}_{g \in G}$ are pairwise disjoint. So $\pi_G^{-1}(V)= \coprod_\limits{g \in G} gU $, from which the result follows.
Now, my question is: where is the need of connectedness of $Y$? I mean, given a non connected $Y = \coprod Y_\alpha$, where $Y_\alpha$ are the connected components, then because of the action of the group is even, I can repeat the same argument of the proof above and notice that the fiber of $V$ will be distributed all over the connected components, but the fundamental properties of a covering, i.e. fibre which is a disjoint union of opens, everyone homeomorphic to $V$, depends only on the action of the group .

A: The behavior of the action can change in different connected components, so in general you have no way to guarantee that the fibers of points in distinct components are homeomorphic.
As a simple example consider $Y=\{a,b,c\}$ with the discrete topology and a two element group $G$, where the non-trivial element swaps $a$ and $b$. Then $Y/G$ has two points, and the fibers are the non-homeomorphic sets $\{a,b\}$ and $\{c\}$.
Edit: If in the definition of covering you don't require the fibers to be homeomorphic, your argument does indeed work, i.e. the lemma is valid also for a disconnected $Y$.
Note that some authors may require connectedness of the base space in the definition of covering, since some properties will be only locally constant over the base space (e.g. the degree, as shown in the above example).


Yesterday it was the Givenchy show during Paris Fashion Week, and the Creative Director Riccardo Tisci sent his models down the catwalk with bleached eyebrows.
Makeup artist Pat McGrath even bleached Cara Delevingne's iconic eyebrows to near nonexistence!
As well as Cara, Pat McGrath worked her magic on Kendall Jenner, Joan Smalls, and Natasha Poly.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley also walked the Paris Fashion Week show, and she loved her look so much that she uploaded a pic to Instagram of her new brows.
It's not the first time Kendall Jenner has sported bleached brows, last season she had bleached brows for Givenchy for AW14, Marc Jacobs for AW14, and for Teen Vogue earlier this summer.
"This is the sixth time since February!" she told the teen fashion mag. "I might have to start saying no at some point, because I'm getting worried they're going to fall out!"


A high level meeting took place in Washington today between the Foreign Ministers of Belize and Guatemala, Wilfred Elrington and Fernando Carrera, and OAS Secretary General Miguel Insulza. It ended with the penning of a document entitled Roadmap for Strengthening Bilateral Relations in 2014 between Belize and Guatemala. The roadmap identifies specific aspects of the Framework Agreement for Negotiations and Confidence Building Measures between the parties to promote peace, security and cooperation. According to the release, the agreement gives way to revisiting the simultaneous referenda that was scheduled for October sixth, 2013, but postponed. The roadmap will also ensure the management of bilateral relations between both countries until "such time as Guatemala's claim to Belize is finally and definitively resolved." After the signing Elrington addressed the gathering.
I don't like the body language of the Guatemalan foreign Minister.
The folding of ones arms and bringing it to the chest while involved in a serious discussion speaks to the withholding of ones mental and emotional viewpoint, irrespective of what is being said or presented.
I didn't trust these Guatemalan Politicians from the beginning anyhow.
That guat gov will not honor any agreement jus luk at history! They hate Blacks simple as that!
I am sure Guatemala is impressed negotiating with Ali BaBarrow's ambassador of BS.
You have international rules to keep the peace. Only nations like these two would engage in this childish behaviour.

Perhaps he does not like Elrington, which is understandable to most Belizeans.

Home News Business Petrol price jumps Rs 1.59/ltr, diesel Rs 1.31/ltr after Saudi attacks
Petrol price jumps Rs 1.59/ltr, diesel Rs 1.31/ltr after Saudi attacks
on: September 22, 2019 In: Business, India, Latest NewsTags:
New Delhi: Petrol prices have soared by Rs 1.59 a litre and diesel by Rs 1.31 in the last six days — the most since daily price revision was introduced in 2017, as a massive strike at Saudi Arabian oil facilities jolted oil markets.
Petrol price was on Sunday hiked by 27 paise to Rs 73.62 a litre in the Delhi market — the benchmark for national rates, according to a price notification by state-owned oil firms.
Price of diesel was increased by 18 paise to Rs 66.74 per litre in Delhi.
This is the sixth straight daily increase and has taken the cumulative price hike since September 17 to Rs 1.59 per litre in case of petrol and Rs 1.31 for diesel.
Global oil prices shot up the most since the Gulf war in the immediate aftermath of the unprecedented drone missile strikes on key oil facilities in Saudi Arabia that disabled 5 per cent of the global supply.
Oil prices have cooled since the spike on September 16 but remain on the edge.
Attackers using low-flying drones and cruise missiles knocked out 5.7 million barrels of production, or about 60 per cent of what Saudi Arabia currently produces. It was the largest supply disruption in history. On Monday, Brent oil futures soared 15 per cent.
Analysts have warned that the style of the attacks on Saudi Aramco's Abqaiq and Khurais oil facilities may add a permanent risk premium to oil and gasoline prices.
While Saudi Arabia is saying it can quickly bring supply back online, experts say the shock to the global oil market will be felt for years.
India depends on Saudi Arabia for a fifth of its oil imports and has been in constant touch with Kingdom officials on securing its supplies.
Oil Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Thursday spoke to Saudi Arabia's new oil minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman to discuss the supply plan. Saudi Arabia, according to Pradhan, has assured India of meeting all its committed oil supplies.
Saudi Arabia, which is India's second-largest oil supplier, sells close to 2 million tonnes of crude every month. Of this, 1.2-1.3 million tonnes of supplies for September have already been taken and the rest too has been assured.
However, Saudi has sought deferment of some LPG supplies, but they have assured to make up for all the quantities, Indian Oil Corp (IOC) Chairman Sanjiv Singh said, adding any shortfall can be bought from Qatar.
Bharat Petroleum Corp Ltd (BPCL) has already tendered for import of LPG in October, possibly to make up for the shortfall from Saudi Arabia.
India buys around 2,00,000 tonnes of LPG every month from Saudi Arabia.
Industry sources said Saudi Arabia has cut throughput at its refineries to meet its crude oil supply commitments.
India imports 83 per cent of its oil needs, with Saudi Arabia supplying a fifth of the purchases. Saudi Arabia is its second-biggest supplier after Iraq. It sold 40.33 million tonnes of crude oil to India in 2018-19 fiscal, when the country had imported 207.3 million tonnes of oil.
China, South Korea, Japan and India are the biggest takers of the Saudi oil in Asia, with China and Japan leading the pack at an average of 900-1,100 kilo barrels per day each. India could be most exposed as its reserves are the lowest. (PTI)

Getting a bachelor's degree is a great way to invest in your future. It is also one of the most common degrees that college students earn today.
Some college majors will pay you back whereas others will not help you have a high earning salary post-graduation.
The course of study you decide on will influence your earning potential, so it's essential you choose wisely.
Use the 7 college majors we cover in this article as a starting point to rank how various majors compare based on alumni salaries.

Another type of specialized engineering degree is becoming a petroleum engineer.
The median salary for a petroleum engineer is $135,754.
You might be wondering what a petroleum engineer does for a living.
Engineers focus on advancing safe and systematic ways of finding and extracting natural gas and oil.

Having this expertise will allow you as a professional to improve technology and make sure that it fits a business's needs.
The median base salary for professionals who graduate with an Accounting degree is $48,993.
Why major in accounting? The demand for people who excel in math and statistics continues to rise.
Also, if you would like the perks of only working four months a year while still earning a year's salary, this could be you someday.
Unlike getting an MD in medical school, which takes 7-9 years, you can get an accounting degree in just four years, and less in accelerated programs.
Are you wondering what the difference is between studying Informatics versus Information Technology?
Informatics is the study or process of designing solutions for information problems. It is the first step in creating user interfaces, mobile apps, and new technologies in general.
Information Technology focuses on the software and hardware on individual units.
The median pay for an Informatics major after 0-5 years is $60,500. After 10+ years the median wage is $95,300.
Many college students go to school to pursue their passion, which is an extraordinary thing.
However, it's also important to carefully consider what major to focus on because it'll help open the door to promising career opportunities, connections, and future friends.
However, majors take careful consideration. Even when you're pursuing a passion, you can channel that passion into a related degree plan. Which majors will give you more opportunities and future connections in your intended career?
Even further, the major you choose will also dictate how much you earn in the future.
If jobs in your major are in high demand, securing the right position can help you maintain longterm success.

Are you ready for a shift in your life? With the right intentions, you could be headed for a new path around the time of the Autumnal Equinox, which takes place on September 22, 2009 at 2:19 p.m. PDT. This transit marks the Sun entering Libra and the first day of autumn, when night and day are nearly of equal length. This equal measure of light and darkness mirrors the influence of Libra, the sign of balance.
In many traditions around the world, the Autumnal Equinox is accompanied by festivals that celebrate the blessings of the harvest. Common themes include gathering, gratitude and balance – which brings us to your personal goals! Commemorating the beginning of fall, through celebrations and rituals, can help you manifest your dreams for the coming year.
To start, think about all the good things that have come your way – this year, and in years past. Acknowledging your blessings sets up a vibrational boomerang in the universe that returns more blessings to you. Remember, what you focus on – whether it's fear and lack, or love and prosperity – is what manifests in your life. You don't have to deny your struggles, but keep your mental and emotional focus on what's right about your life.
To accelerate this process, start a daily spiritual ritual, like meditation, prayer or chanting, while keeping your blessings and goals in mind. Such rituals will connect you with the spiritual realm to empower your intentions and activities. Try setting up an altar with some symbols of autumn that resonate for you. You might include a red or orange leaf, an herb, a stone or a candle. For balance, be sure to include all the elements, like a cup of liquid for Water, a candle for Fire, a feather or incense for Air, and a stone or leaf for Earth. It's all about being in balance during the Autumnal Equinox – and beyond.
Speaking of which… the next step is to analyze where your life may be out of balance. Are you caring for others, but not taking much time for yourself? Are you eating, drinking or spending too much? Are you working hard and not playing enough? Are you filling your time with meaningless activities, while trying to find a job? Are you too busy for your spiritual life? The current transits of Mercury, Venus and Saturn in Virgo will help you to see the details on what's out of alignment, especially in your thinking (Mercury), relationships (Venus) and work (Saturn). The Sun in Libra will help you achieve a more balanced life, and the current Saturn-Uranus opposition will help you make some needed changes.
So why is balance such a good thing? Leading a balanced life creates serenity, which will enable you to make better choices. It will also heighten your resiliency in handling challenges, while making you more open to receiving the good things life has to offer.
During the next month, don't forget to partake of the fall celebrations in your community. Participating in autumn festivals can empower your intentions. These celebrations are reminders that we're all in this together, and that each of us has a place in the world. With some positive intentions, which can turn into positive achievements, you can change your life and make a difference to others, as well.

Penguin Putnam
Steinbeck's tough yet charming portrait of people on the margins of society, dependant on one another for both physical and emotional survival
Published in 1945, Cannery Row focuses on the acceptance of life as it is: both the exuberance of community and the loneliness of the individual. Drawing on his memories of the real inhabitants of Monterey, California, including longtime friend Ed Ricketts, Steinbeck interweaves the stories of Doc, Dora, Mack and his boys, Lee Chong, and the other characters in this world where only the fittest survive, to create a novel that is at once one of his most humorous and poignant works. In her introduction, Susan Shillinglaw shows how the novel expresses, both in style and theme, much that is essentially Steinbeck: "scientific detachment, empathy toward the lonely and depressed…and, at the darkest level…the terror of isolation and nothingness."
For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.
Vividly depicts the colorful, sometimes disreputable, inhabitants of a run-down area in Monterey, California

Not as intense or profound as Grapes of Wrath, but quite enjoyable. The actual star is the town itself, Cannery Row in Monterrey, CA. As a good Fellini film, stuff simply happens. Lee Chong's magical store, Dora's etiquette whorehouse, a "residential" complex of abandoned boilers, a never-ending boat construction... and most importantly, the Palace Flophouse and the Marine Lab with Mack and Doc.
I've known some Macks in my life... They simply have a sixth sense that can read perfectly human pulses and figure out the best response for every situation. I bet that if you're left stranded with Mack in the middle of the desert, after a day, Mack will show up again with some help and an iced Coke.
You do want to meet Doc, do something nice for him, as just spend a couple of weeks on Cannery Row. Everything is brighter in California as they say.

What a writer. Very much worth rereading. In fact, I just read about a book titled Beyond Boundaries: Rereading John Steinbeck, edited by Susan Shillinglaw and Kevin Hearle. What a picture of life right after World War II in what was then a little known part of the world.
InsJavert Jan 29, 2019
I admire Steinbeck's ability to put together words in such a manner as to draw your attention to their use and what those words bring together in your imagination. I was returning home from a trip, and as I was driving along, this story, as well as Steinbeck's wordsmithing made for an enjoyable and delightful story.
A delightful story about a manager of characters all inter-connected by the cannery business. The opening of the book sets the tone and insight into the characters. What a lot of people would judge as the seedier side of life, these individuals all come together to portray life, or better yet, to reveal their lives to be so much as middle class, everyday public citizen. An interesting portrayal of life, its ups and downs, pursuits, achievements, relationships.
Numerous, revealing, and certainly amusing. I cannot recommend this book enough. You will be delightd as well as touched, both by the writing and most certainly the story and characters. Very enjoyable.

Lovely delightful read with each sentence standing on its own. Visited Monterey , CA and Cannery Row recently making the read even more enjoyable.

Cannery Row gives you glimpses of Steinbeck's wonderful scenes, memorable characters, breathtaking settings, humor and heartbreak, but they're just glimpses, and they're all just a bit out of focus
Margush Apr 15, 2016
This book is a treasure! It's absolutely hilarious, characters are loveable, dialogues are to die for and English... Or dear what an amazing knowledge and masterful use of English language. A very well deserved Nobel prize in literature by such an amazing talent as Mr. Steinbeck.

"The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling are the concomiants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest are the traits of success. And while men admire the quality of the first they love the produce of the second"
"He can kill anything for need but he could not even hurt a feeling for pleasure." - speaking of the character Doc

Follows the lives of those that live on Cannery row. Concluding with some of the less productive members trying to do good by the doctor who is accepting of all.

Two nights ago I saw the most beautiful sunset I've seen in a while. The sky was all sorts of painted pinks and purples and I just had to take a moment to awe at the majestic beauty of nature. I took this photo from out my daughters bedroom window. If I hadn't been putting her to bed I would have gone outside and taken in all in. Sigh, so pretty.
Ok so let's talk goals.
2. Finish my 30 Day Photo Challenge FAIL. I found out I'm not good at having to take a specific photo EVERY day.
3. Ariana's Alphabet - Sort of. We did letter K and we're working on letter F now.
4. Create something crafty - I made a Halloween wreath. You can see it here on my facebook page.
5. Print off photographs - Oh Yea! I printed off over 700 pictures!
1. Scrapbook - With all those pictures I printed off last month I want to put them into scrapbooks.
2. Take Ariana to Gartenshau Kaiserslautern - to see the pumpkin animals.
3. Photograph Autumn - before I know it, it will be Winter!
4. Share some recipes - I have a few yummy things that I want to share.
5. Have a Giveaway. I'll be having a sale in the shop soon, so if you want something grab it because I might end up giving it away and then it's gone!
i am excited about october.

Q: Is there a cleaner way to check for a condition to set a variable then to use a bunch of IF statements? I am looking to possibly shorten my code. It seems super redundent but I am not sure how else I would be checking for a specific condition to set a variable besides a large IF statement?
IF MaxContaminationCode := -2 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '000';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := -1 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '00';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 0 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '0';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 1 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '1';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 2 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '2';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 3 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '3';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 4 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '4';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 5 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '5';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 6 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '6';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 7 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '7';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 8 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '8';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 9 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '9';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 10 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '10';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 11 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '11';
    ELSIF MaxContaminationCode := 12 THEN
        ContaminationClass := '12';
    END_IF

With this code, I am checking to see if a calculated value (MaxContaminationCode), which is an INT, is a specific value. If it is the specific value set "ContaminationClass" (which is a string), to the respective value.

A: In general, if you have many different cases, then it is preferable to use the CASE statement ('switch' in other languages) as DrBwts said. Also, as Gereon said, in your example you could decrease the cases you check. So for your example it would look something like this:
CASE MaxContaminationCode OF
-2:
  ContaminationClass := '000';
-1:
  ContaminationClass := '00';
0..12: // if you ONLY want 0 to 12, otherwise use ELSE here
  ContaminationClass := INT_TO_STRING(MaxContaminationCode);
END_CASE

A: I agree with suggestion above. But to make it even more compact (-2 lines).
ContaminationClass := INT_TO_STRING(MaxContaminationCode);
IF MaxContaminationCode = -2 THEN
    ContaminationClass := '000';
ELSIF MaxContaminationCode = -1 THEN
    ContaminationClass := '00';

Review: Foo Fighters – Concrete and Gold

When I read the press release announcing that Foo Fighters' ninth album would be their attempt to make "Motorhead's version of Sgt. Pepper…or something like that" alarm bells began to ring. The additional news that producer Greg Kurstin (known for his work with Adele, Sia and Pink) had been heavily involved added to my sense of foreboding. Still, the mash of pop and rock sensibilities can yield amazing results; Swedish Hardcore band Refused employed producer Shellback on their last album, who is best known for co-writing the likes of Taylor Swift's We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, and the results were and are breathtaking. On that basis, I strove to keep an open mind upon listening to Concrete and Gold.
Sadly from the very start of the album it became abundantly clear that this was not
going to be a great work of rock genius, rather, this is a bloated and over-produced record with a bizarrely inconsistent tone and pretty much zero fresh ideas. A number of the tracks including lead single Run feature the juxtaposition of screamed lead vocals with soft harmonies and swelling pop chords, a technique that might work with a better arrangement and more bite to the production, but the meticulous overuse of reverb and general sheen of the tone on Concrete and Gold takes any possible edge out of the harsh vocals leaving a really odd overall vibe, as though Chino Morino has somehow been locked in a cupboard during the recording of a rock opera.
Such tracks that have any discernible character appear to be pilfering it wholesale from a variety of rock luminaries; Make It Right borrows liberally from the Aerosmith school of song-writing, drenched in tedious vocal harmonies and cheesy lyrics about 'trains to nowhere', while Arrows sounds like a Queens of the Stone Age B-side, minus the unusual tuning and sleazy blues tone that makes their music interesting. Weirdest of all, Sunday Rain recalls the tedium of Be Here Now-era Oasis. At least the Gallaghers had the excuse of being so coked up they can't even remember recording that album.
By the time I reached the plodding finale of the title track I was ready to never hear Concrete and Gold again. Overblown dross from a band that appear to have forgotten what made the likes of The Colour and The Shape so compelling.
Concrete and Gold was released via Columbia Records on 15th September.
Summary Over-produced, devoid of interesting ideas and utterly forgettable. Go and listen to Monkey Wrench and pretend this monstrosity never happened.
