Emotional Pennetta sees off Sharapova in Indian Wells
There is nothing like a good cry to get Flavia Pennetta in a winning frame of mind.
The defending champion from Italy sent world number two Maria Sharapova crashing out of Indian Wells on Tuesday, winning a three-set, two-hour marathon after almost letting her emotions get the best of her.
Pennetta got off to a rough start in the opening set and it wasn't until after she broke down emotionally that she says she was able to rally for the 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 fourth round victory.
"Sometimes a woman has these moments," said Pennetta, adding she felt "refreshed" after leaving the court and going into the tunnel area under the stands, where she let loose with a screaming, sobbing and crying episode.
"Sometimes you just need to take everything out. On the court it is not easy to do that.
"I was just trying to keep calm and play every point. But when I finished the first set I was feeling, I have to go out … just go and let everything out, screaming, do something.
"After that I was refreshed a little bit and I tried to get back on the court and start again."
Asked by reporters if there might be something going on in her personal life that would cause her to do that, Pennetta said without hesitation, "Si, si. I am really happy."
Happy indeed, after shocking the five-time Grand Slam winner and second seed Sharapova, who was hoping to become the first three time female winner at Indian Wells.
"No real excuses. I went out and lost the match," Sharapova said.
Sharapova committed 11 double faults and was broken four times.
Pennetta advanced to the quarter-finals, where she will meet either Caroline Garcia of France or Sabine Lisicki of Germany.
Pennetta, who won her 10th and biggest title of her career with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Agnieszka Radwanska last year, extended her match winning streak to nine.
Sharapova started the season by winning her 34th career singles title in Brisbane, Australia then reached the Aussie Open final where she lost to Serena Williams.
Sharapova said she didn't see Pennetta leave the court so she had no idea what was going on.
"News to me," she said when told of the defending champ's breakdown. "She was seeing the ball much better than I was."
This was the fifth career meeting between the two with Pennetta now holding a 3-2 edge.
In the meantime, four-time champion Roger Federer avenged his only loss of the season and world No. 3 Rafael Nadal avoided another early exit Tuesday at the WTA and ATP Indian Wells tournament.
It was in January that Andreas Seppi shocked Federer in the third round of the Australian Open but the Swiss star got his payback Tuesday winning 6-3, 6-4 in 82 minutes on centre court.
It was Federer's only loss and it snapped his streak of 11 straight semi-final appearances at the Aussie Open.
"It was good to play him right away again and erase it from the memory," said Federer. "This was one of those matches where I was happy to get through and happy it was over."
Federer moves through to the round of 16 to play American Jack Sock, who beat Spain's Roberto Bautista-Agut 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.
Three-time champion Nadal avoided a second straight early exit from Indian Wells with a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Donald Young.
Nadal will square off against France's Gilles Simon for a berth in the quarter-finals.
Last year, Nadal was eliminated in the third round by Alexandr Dolgopolov 7-6, 6-4. It was his earliest exit in the California desert tournament since 2004.
"Last year was 2014 and we are in 2015. Every year is different," Nadal said. "I played a lot of good tournaments here with good results.
"I feel very comfortable. I happy to be in the fourth round."
Nadal hit just one ace and made three double faults but he broke Young six times in the 80-minute match on centre court.
He hopes to improve his serve in the next round against Simon.
"It's true that I had a few mistakes with my serve," he said. "But then with a positive attitude in the next game, I was able to have breaks.
"I did what I had to do to get through, winning in straight sets. I need to serve a little bit better tomorrow."
World number one Serena Williams woke up after a slow start to battle past American compatriot Sloane Stephens in three sets to reach the quarter-finals.
The 19-time Grand Slam winner defeated a dogged Stephens 6-7 (3/7), 6-2, 6-2 as her emotional return from a 14-year Indian Wells boycott gathers pace.
Williams, 33, said it was good to play a two-hour match because she needs to step up her game if she is going to advance deeper into the draw.
"I still am trying to find my bearings," she said. "I have been off a little this week.
"I just had to stay focused and use the experience of a three-set match."
Williams, who blasted 14 aces and broke Stephens six times in the two-hour, six-minute match, faces Timea Bacsinszky of Switzerland next.
The two former Fed Cup teammates have a colourful history after Stephens, 21, upset Williams in the quarter-finals of the 2013 Australian Open in three sets.
That win ended Williams' 20-match winning streak and the two haven't been chummy since then.
Sixth seeded Canadian Eugenie Bouchard was upset by qualifier Lesia Tsurenko, who rallied for a 6-7 (5/7), 7-5, 6-4 victory.
In other matches, Canadian sixth seed Milos Raonic hammered Dolgopolov 7-6 (7/2), 6-4, Czech Tomas Berdych rolled over American Steve Johnson 6-4, 6-2 and Simon took care of Michael Berrer, of Germany, 6-2, 7-5. – Agence France-Presse

Diversity and Independence in Agriculture
One farm family working to sustain farmland and feed our WNC communities are the Stepps of Stepp's Plants. Stepp's is a third-generation farm in Flat Rock (Henderson County). They grow and sell bedding plants, vegetable plants, hanging baskets, roses, shrubs, and fresh asparagus in the spring. During the summer and fall, they grow raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries.
"This was my grandfather's land for more than 40 years," Larry Stepp shares. "I've been growing on the farm for about 10 years now, and I've farmed full-time since 2007."
Larry's father and grandfather grew apples, but Larry says that he and his family—like many of WNC's creative farmers—have reinvented the farm:"We're doing a different adventure. Apples have such a great water need. With berries and asparagus and such, it's smaller acreage, but more productive." Responding to the changing environment of both the area's climate and consumer demand, the Stepps have transformed their business and carved out a place in new, local markets, including distributors such as Mountain Food Products and restaurants like Early Girl Eatery.
Larry's father, Larry Sr., says, "I could have sold this farm for $35,000 per acre, but no way. It was important for me to keep it in my family for my son and my grandkids." The global food market puts a lot of pressure on farmers to grow large quantities of food. Local food systems, on the other hand, provide an opportunity for local farmers to make production choices supportive of communities' environmental conditions and residents' values.
Another farm, Hickory Nut Gap Farm, similar to the Stepps, has been a cornerstone of WNC's local food scene for generations. Now run by the family's fourth generation, owners Jamie and Amy Ager have vastly expanded the family operation in Fairview (Buncombe County). With a history dating back to 1916, today the farm produces grassfed beef, pastured pork, pastured poultry, and apples.They also now offer you-pick pumpkins, blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries to an ever-growing number of area residents and visitors dedicated to local and farm-fresh food. In the fall, the farm is buzzing with school groups from the surrounding counties.
Jamie and Amy recognize that their customers want to be engaged with where their food comes from and how it is grown, so they actively promote and share their farm story, daily work, and farm heritage with the community. As Jamie says, "Our mission is to connect people to agriculture. You can come to our farm and see agriculture in action and learn about what happens on a farm and see what the day-in and day-out of a working farm is." For this farming family, the local food system is about more than profits. They work each day to supply customers with healthy, humanely raised products that they can feel good about eating. Their work is also about supporting a legacy of feeding families, leading the community, and actively shaping the world they want our children to grow up in.
Farmers like the Agers and Stepps demonstrate that a vibrant local food system is about more than moving goods. It is about building lasting relationships within the greater community and responding to changes as they come up, whether that be shifts in weather or people's increased desire to engage with the food system. In both cases, these local farms have succeeded precisely because they value and are connected to the communities they live in and have dedicated themselves to maintaining and building that value for generations of residents to come.

What to watch in isolation: '90s political football, Neighbours goes rogue and new sitcom aims to eliminate LGBT prejudice
By: The City's Newshound
In: Arts and Culture, isolation special, Review
Considering we're (hopefully) all in quarantine, there's no better time to check out the shows hitting our screens. TheCity.ie's Paul Caffrey reviews the week in TV, with all series available to stream on RTÉ and Channel 4 Player: The Boys in Green Part 1 & II (RTÉ Player), Neighbours Late: Endgame (RTÉ Player) and Feel Good (Channel 4 Player).
The Boys in Green Part 1 & II (RTÉ Player)
It was back to the '90s this week with RTÉ One's nostalgic, hard-hitting documentary The Boys in Green, which aired on Monday, March 16. The programme explored the iconic Jack Charlton years, which Match of the Day host Gary Lineker calls "the greatest era of Irish football" during his interview for this film.
When Ireland attempted to play England in a friendly at Lansdowne Road on February 15, 1995, disaster was on the cards from the very start.
🇮🇪 📺 Prepare to join us down memory lane on Monday as we take the plunge back to Irish soccer's golden age!
Part 1 of The Boys In Green will be live on @RTEOne this Monday, 9 March at 9.35pm.
Here's a taste of what's to come! @rosswhitakertv @LoosehorseSport pic.twitter.com/9T74Z1npJX

"Friendlies can be dangerous because they can be anything but," reflects Tony Cascarino, former Ireland forward, speaking 25 years on.
Back then, relations between the Dáil and Downing Street were in a feral limbo situation which appeared to encourage the proliferation of violent, hate-fuelled organisations at public events.
Neo-Nazi groups such as UK-based Combat 18 found opportunities to make their mark at high-profile gatherings, and their vicious actions forced the match to be abandoned.
After Ireland scored once and a subsequent England goal was disallowed, members of Combat 18 and another far-right group, Chelsea Headhunters, began throwing iron bars, six-foot pieces of timber and other dangerous missiles down from the top-tier stands.
Terrified families with young children made their way to the middle of the pitch to avoid injury.
"You could feel the anger and the hatred coming from the terraces," Cascarino recalls.

By early 1995, we'd had some attempts to broker peace on these islands, but nothing that lasted. In short, it was a grim period in our shared history with the United Kingdom.
There had been the December 1993 Downing Street peace declaration by the British and Irish governments (that didn't hold), followed by the August 1994 IRA ceasefire that proved far from permanent.
We were still three years away from the Good Friday Agreement that finally ended most of the violence of the Troubles and largely calmed hostilities between the Dublin and London administrations.
WATCH: 'Absolute waffle' – Eamon Dunphy discussing the abandoned match on Sky News in 1995
Why would far-right groups target a football match?
The interviewed players believe it was down to Jack Charlton's groundbreaking policy of hiring top English-born players from Premiership clubs with Irish roots.
It was disparagingly dubbed "the granny rule", even though some English-born players like David Kelly had Irish parents and were immensely proud to put on the green shirt.
But not all football fans understood. According to Cascarino, there was "always the accusation of 'born in England, you shouldn't be wearing the green shirt'".
And against the backdrop of the Troubles, groups like Combat 18 weren't happy about what they saw as Englishmen playing for an enemy State.
Former Liverpool and Ireland international John Aldridge says, tellingly:
"We're not English, we're Scousers and to be fair, the central government has never really done us any favours."
In a similar vein, Merseyside-born Jason McAteer explains:
"Up North was very difficult, my Dad was in and out of work… I never, ever felt this urge to play for England."

LISTEN: RADIO ARCHIVE – Boys in Green Return From Italia '90
With an impressive array of present-day interviews with former Ireland players and lots of well-preserved archive footage, The Boys In Green focuses on Charlton's nine years managing the Irish national side between 1986 and 1995.
The Irish people took Charlton to their hearts because the Northumberland man "had no airs and graces, he wasn't your quintessential Englishman – he wasn't a toff or a snob," explains Eamon Dunphy.
The concluding part aired on Monday night, looking back at Italia '90 when Ireland reached the World Cup quarter-finals before taking us via USA '94 to this infamous pre-Euro '96 friendly that turned violent on February 15, 1995.
In terms of stirring things up during the match buildup, RTÉ didn't help much. Incredibly, an RTÉ Sport promotional trailer, screened just before kick-off, compared the sporting event to some of the horrors of the British occupation going back to the 12th century.

Black and white sketches depicted 14 of the most violent episodes of the occupation from the Siege of Wexford in 1169 all the way up to the 1690 Battle of Aughrim and the 1798 Wexford Rebellion. Then cut to a packed Lansdowne Road (now the Aviva) with the caption: "Lansdowne Road 1995: This one's a friendly."
Charlton felt "ashamed" of the events of that night and reluctantly parted company with the FAI later that year. David Kelly says:
"I think that [the England friendly] affected him more than people will ever know."
Watching this extraordinary footage is a bit like stepping into a time machine and finding yourself at a point in our history that, politically, you'd rather forget. At the same time, The Boys in Green is compelling and essential viewing; it's well worth looking up on the RTÉ Player if you didn't catch it when it aired.
Neighbours Late: Endgame (RTÉ)
On St Patrick's Day, RTÉ kicked off a week of Neighbours special episodes to celebrate its 35 years on TV. I grew up watching this Australian soap opera and it's hard to believe it's been on the box for so long.
Though far from intellectual stimulation, it's a valid form of (usually) harmless escapism. Over the past week, each of the regular episodes have been followed by Neighbours Late: Endgame, a five-part, stand-alone and decidedly more risqué version of the soap that turns its long-held traditions firmly on their head. The upbeat serial with the cosy community-driven mantra — "next door is only a footstep away" — was totally transformed for the week.
It's Neighbours gone rogue, and thoroughly unsuitable for the evening 6pm time-slot RTÉ has inexplicably put it in.
Memo to Montrose executives: the clue's in the series title. It's a late-night show. In Australia and Britain, this spin-off mini-series goes on air at 10pm each night, when the kids are (hopefully) asleep.
And for good reason: it's far from from TV for all ages. A young woman is pushed down a mineshaft and left at the mercy of a deadly snake, while a long-established character is smashed over the head with a rock and sent out to sea on a speedboat. If all that wasn't enough, guest star Denise Van Outen's character is blown up by a bomb and there's some explicit scenes with nudity thrown in.

The culprit for this rampage is neighbourhood villain Finn Kelly (played convincingly by seasoned stage actor Rob Mills). So much for the "Good Neighbours" motto that launched the show all those years ago.
Neighbours first launched on Australia's Channel 7 on March 18, 1985 but was axed after 170 episodes. Snapped up by the rival Ten network, it became a huge hit both in Ireland and Britain thanks to the vision it successfully sold of non-stop sun, sea and beautiful people living a generally carefree lifestyle. In a nod to the show's enduring popularity in Ireland, it had planned to film episodes in Dublin this month, but the shoot was called off due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
The 'Endgame' finale airs on Monday, March 23rd, on RTÉ2.

Feel Good (Channel 4 Player – free registration required)
Meanwhile over on Channel 4, there's no doubt that Mae Martin is on a mission. The young actress told BBC Radio 4 in 2016 that she wanted to eliminate "this underlying and quite insidious distaste that still exists for things like same sex affection."
She also argued, in her Guide to 21st Century Sexuality for the station, that sexuality should be a "non-issue" and revealed she is often asked "Are you a girl or a boy?" or "Are you gay?" by intrusive strangers.
The accomplished Canadian stand-up comic and LGBT rights activist has since co-written — and stars in — this semi-autobiographical comedy-drama series in which she plays a younger version of herself (also called Mae) who's starting out on the English stand-up circuit.
CANADIAN IN LONDON: Mae Martin in Feel Good, that uses comedy and drama in equal measure (Photo: YouTube)
The results are thoroughly entertaining. Using humour and drama in equal measure, Feel Good confronts important issues about society's preconceptions which anyone who appears "different" still has to face in their everyday life.
Set in present-day England (filmed in London, Manchester and Blackpool), it opens with the fictional Mae about to take the stage at one of her first stand-up gigs where she meets and falls for Georgina or George, played by Charlotte Ritchie (Fresh Meat, Doctor Who), the only audience member who laughs at her jokes.
"She's like a dangerous Mary Poppins, I'm like Bart Simpson," Mae remarks as she struggles to get up the courage to approach her intended after the gig.
And even though George has "never been on a date with a girl before", the pair get talking and embark on a whirlwind romance. Perhaps it's because the episode only lasts 30 minutes that things move so fast: they kiss and within days, they've moved in together.
"It's the greatest gift of my life that I get to have sex with god damn Princess Diana every day," Mae gushes.
It's not all plain sailing between the Canadian and her English Rose. There's trouble when George seems very hesitant to introduce Mae to her friends who think of her only as heterosexual. Mae doesn't understand why they can't just conduct their relationship openly, and it threatens to drive a wedge between them.
When George is later chatted up by a male work colleague on a night out, she's forced to tell him that she's "seeing someone", and pretends it's a man.
In her Radio 4 series four years ago, Mae Martin said "tonnes of progress" had been made in changing attitudes towards the LGBT community, but that, inevitably:
"In times of economic and political uncertainty, intolerance always seems to worm its way in there; it raises its ugly head."

— Netflix (@netflix) March 18, 2020
With her current six-part TV series, the actress is doing an excellent job of challenging the widely held prejudices that still persist, even in 2020. Watch out for an intriguing guest stint by Lisa Kudrow (of Phoebe in Friends fame) as Mae's mean-spirited mother who calls herself a "repulsive old witch".

Q: Git "does not appear to be a git repository" I am trying to install git on a server and have some problem when I try to perform the first push.
I successfully installed git on the server, created the repository locally and on the server but when I try to make the first push I get this message:
stdin: is not a tty
fatal: '/my_repo.git' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

I googled it and followed everything I could find but nothing worked. What could be wrong?

A: I will assume you are using ssh to clone your repo.
That means you need the full path of the repo on the server in your ssh address:
git clone ssh://sshuser@serverIP/full/absolute/path/to/my_repo

Note: if your 'my_repo' is a bare one (to allow pushing), that would be:
git clone ssh://sshuser@serverIP/full/absolute/path/to/my_repo.git

The stdin: is not a tty simply means that in the .bashrc of the sshuser account, there is something expecting an input.

Abpostman1 adds in the comments:

Had this issue because I was trying to push in a --bare repo non empty.
Even if it was exactly the same files, I had the same error message: "Not git repository"
I had to backup my /httpdocs remote folder, create an empty new /httpdocs folder, do again git init --bare and re-push from local.
My remote address : url = ssh://magento@magento/home/magento/httpdocs (with a private/public key in both sides)

A: May be you forgot to run git --bare init on the remote folder
That was my problem

A: Or, you can simply use:
git clone user@server:/full/path/to/your/directory

A: A non-jailed/non-chrooted git user may also be the issue source, and setting the user's home directory (~/) may also help. For example, change:
git clone -- 'ssh://user@host:port/dir/repo.git';

to
git clone -- 'ssh://user@host:port/~/dir/repo.git';

You know, I always say everyone deserves and should do what they love and love what they do. Why do I say this? Well, really the answer is as simple as it gets: YOLO! You only live once, and you should make the most of it, doing what you love! I'm sure you have seen people in your life who don't enjoy what they do, and perhaps you wonder why. Or perhaps you yourself have been or currently are stuck in a job that you don't like, but you just don't know a way out. Maybe the money is too good, or it offers you the security you need, or maybe you just can't imagine doing anything else because this is what you've been doing for years. I see people complain on facebook about their job, or how they can't wait for the weekend, and I truly feel for them. I just wish they could see that they have options in life. Before starting this business, I was lucky enough to have a job that I loved. I have always been interested in interior design, and lucky me, I got to create displays at a retail store with a team of people that were fun to work with. Then when I had kids, I longed to do something that gave me the flexibility to be with my kids more. I didn't like having to call in sick when my child was sick because I wanted to be dedicated to my work, nor did I like missing out on those special moments, and I knew as they got older it would be even harder. I was torn, because I loved what I did, but I also loved my kids. I could see my Son didn't like when I sent back to work after my year off, and when it was time to go back after I had my daughter it was twice as hard. Thankfully, nearing the end of my maternity leave with my daughter, I came up with an idea that I knew I could turn into a business, doing something I loved as well. Less than a year later, I quit my job to pursue my business, and a year after that, my husband quit his job as a pipe fitter / gas fitter to join me. Now, fast forward 8 years and my husband and I are both running our business full time from our studio in Mission, BC, doing what we love and loving what we do. Don't get me wrong, it's a lot of work, but the key is, it's work we enjoy!

Ebbe Crone, född 4 november 1885 i Brågarps socken, död 5 juli 1960 i Stockholm, var en svensk arkitekt och brandchef.

Biografi
Crone utbildade sig vid Norrköpings tekniska elementarskola och Tekniska högskolan i Charlottenburg. På inrådan av brandchef Carl-Gustaf Borgenstierna utbildades han även till brandchef i Berlin och Hamburg under cirka ett år.

Efter sin utbildning anställdes Crone hos arkitekt Oskar Kaufmann i Berlin, där han arbetade i åtta år fram till 1914. Därefter etablerade han sin egen verksamhet i Göteborg under fyra år. Åren 1919-1921 var han chef för Svensk Filmindustris arkitektkontor i Råsunda.

Från 1922 var han verksam i Sundsvall, där han arbetade deltid som brandchef och hade andra uppdrag som kontrollant i Byggnadsnämnden. Han var även tillförordnad stadsarkitekt i Sundsvall från 1937.

Crone var även engagerad i Röda Korset och var ledamot i kretsstyrelsen för organisationen samt ordförande i Röda korskommittén i Sundsvall. Han startade även Röda korskåren i Sundsvall.

Han flyttade till Stockholm år 1948 och bodde från 1950 tillsammans med sin fru Carin i Elfvinggården i Bromma, där de skötte värdskapet. Han var också suppleant i stadsplanekommittén och var medlem i TS 1915-1918 och Tekniska Samfundet i Göteborg.

Crone innehade Die deutsche Ehrendenkmünze des Weltkrieges, en tysk medalj som delades ut till soldater som hade deltagit i första världskriget.

Former FIFA president Blatter in hospital
GENEVA, Switzerland, Jan 7 – Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter has been taken to hospital, a Swiss newspaper said Thursday, but media insisted the disgraced official's life was not in danger.
"My father is in hospital. He's getting better every day. But he needs time and rest," his daughter Corinne Blatter Andenmatten was quoted as saying by Blick, which said the 84-year-old was in a serious but non-life-threatening condition.
"On behalf of my family, I ask for privacy," his daughter said.
Blatter was removed from office in 2015 after 17 years at the head of world football's governing body.
He was suspended from football for six years over a two million Swiss franc payment to then UEFA boss Michel Platini in 2011.
Blatter and Platini are now being investigated for alleged "fraud" and "breach of trust" in Switzerland, a source with access to the probe said in November.

FM Area Diversion welcomes $437 million appropriation of federal funding
FARGO, ND (January 19, 2022) – The Fargo-Moorhead Area Diversion project has received an appropriation of $437 million in the US Army Corps of Engineers 2022 workplan, following the recent signing of the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The awarded funds are intended to finish the construction of the Southern Embankment and its associated infrastructure, which are key to providing the region with permanent flood protection by 2027.
This appropriation will pave the way for awarding the contract for the Red River Structure, which will control Red River flows during major flood events. It will be the largest single construction package for the USACE's component of the FM Area Diversion. Previous federal appropriations have enabled construction to start on the Diversion Inlet Structure and the Wild Rice River Structure, which are expected to be completed by 2023 and 2024, respectively.
"Receiving these funds is extremely helpful to our efforts to construct the FM Area Diversion," said Joel Paulsen, the Metro Flood Diversion Authority's executive director. "The efforts of Senators John Hoeven (R-ND) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to advance these funds has made a huge difference, and they are very much appreciated. The funding will enable the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to complete the excellent work they have already begun."
Cass County Commission President Chad Peterson, who recently assumed the MFDA Board of Authority chairmanship from his predecessor, Moorhead Mayor Shelly Carlson, said Hoeven's and Klobuchar's efforts, in conjunction with Senator Tina Smith (D-MN), Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Representative Kelly Armstrong (R-ND) and Representative Michelle Fischbach (R-MN 7th District) made this possible.
"At a time when political partisanship in Washington seems to be at an all-time high, this is evidence that in our part of the country we can still find ways to work together to strengthen our communities, he said.
The FM Area Diversion includes the Southern Embankment, a 20-mile earthen embankment that will prevent flood water from entering the protected area, of which the first three miles were completed in 2022, as well as three control structures. Construction on the Diversion Inlet Structure and Wild Rice Structure are underway near Horace, N.D., and construction on the Red River Structure will begin this year.
The MFDA is the governing authority managing the FM Area Diversion. The project is designed to provide permanent, reliable flood protection to the Fargo-Moorhead metropolitan area. Construction on the FM Area Diversion began in 2017, with expected completion in 2027. For more information, visit FMDiversion.gov.

Please Help me through this. Here's my chunk of code:
IWebElement pagingInfo = webDriver.FindElement(By.ClassName("Dj")); //Getting text from Page info in the form of  "1-emailsPerPage of totalNumberOfEmails"
string[] stringArray = pagingInfo.Text.Split(' ');
int totalNumberOfEmails = Convert.ToInt32(stringArray[2]);
int emailsPerPage = Convert.ToInt32(stringArray[0].Substring(2));
int clickCount = totalNumberOfEmails / emailsPerPage;

for (int i = 0; i <= clickCount; i++)
{
    IWebElement tableInbox = webDriver.FindElement(By.ClassName("Cp")).FindElement(By.ClassName("F"));
    IList<IWebElement> rowsCollection = tableInbox.FindElements(By.TagName("tr"));

    foreach (IWebElement row in rowsCollection)

Using iFrame solves my purpose.
The problem is finally solved after a lot of research. :)


Sixty five years ago, to my students, seems about as distant as 65,000 years ago, when the only sources of energy for our ancestors were wood and muscle. As a group, U.S. citizens are about as antipathetic to understanding the past as any people on earth. However, without this commitment to a processing of background, to a comprehension of how the past yields the present in identifiable and important ways, the future is going to unfold as a grotesque nightmare.
Sixty five years ago, of course, the U.S. mounted the second attack in the world's first--and so far, only--nuclear war. This year, with potent opinion pieces in sources as diverse as the New York Times and the Asheville Citizen Times, compassionate and thoughtful memory regarding August 6 and 9, 1945 seemed slightly more likely than often in the past, though the number of people who actually reflect on the decimation inflicted by our government is probably minimal. Thankfully, for the first time, the United States sent a representative to the peace ceremony that has been an annual event in Hiroshima since the attack that annihilated the city and sent roughly 150,000 people, mainly civilians, to their graves.
The primary 'target' of the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, at least in some larger sense, was the Soviet Union and not Japan.
Obviously, advancing such arguments, and possibly developing them persuasively, has profound implications for our understanding of our nation and the contemporary world.
But that is not what I want to write about today. Instead, I will address what turns out to be a multi-layered and central role that energy ought to play in our thinking about the 'lessons' of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Those instructional units consist of at least four crucial points.
First, whatever folks' political orientation, they must acknowledge the critical role that control of fossil fuels has played in wars since World War One; America's embargo on oil exports to Japan led, ineluctably, to Pearl Harbor, for instance.
Second, nuclear weapons are historically inseparable from nuclear energy, and in a period in which both the budget of the U.S. Department of Energy revolves around H-bombs--a period like today--and the foreign policy of the U.S. revolves around sanctioning nations like Iran, whose nuclear energy program U.S. officials liken to the Manhattan Project, to ignore the necessity of understanding events like Hiroshima and Nagasaki is not only folly, but also likely to be ecocidal.
Third, neither human security nor energy security is plausible, in this time of inevitable transition from fossil fuels to some other primary source of power, in a context of continuing to boost the use of coal, insisting on the necessity of new nuclear power plants, or completely ignoring the grassroots demand for a massive increase in renewable energy.
Fourth, and tying together the other items on the list, a gigantic effort has to occur that simultaneously accomplishes two things: a capacitation of regular people to understand and participate in policy promulgation, and a promotion of not just the forms of democracy, but participatory methods that bring out the maximum effort and insight from everyone.
The first 'lesson' is simple. Both in a global sense and an individual usage, military machines operate on food and oil. Thus, no one should find surprising the conclusion that a key factor in the allies' going to war with Germany in 1914 was a German railroad project that would have gained direct, overland access to the oil fields that the Ottoman Empire nominally controlled in present-day Iran and Iraq. Nor are the following conclusions startling.
Oil and empire go hand in glove. As the availability of this lubricious fuel of industrial revolution and imperial dominance diminishes--we live in the age of 'Post-Peak-Oil,' we can expect that the inflammatory potential of who owns and controls it will continue to burn. Thus, to take merely the most obvious example, the war in Afghanistan is a profound energy issue, or, put another way, the policy of pursuing war in Afghanistan emanates in part, perhaps in large part, from elements of imperial energy policy.
The second 'lesson' above concerns the connection between nuclear weaponry, which almost everyone acknowledges as a threat to human survival that only Global Warming might exceed in scope, and nuclear power, which governments and businessmen in particular view as the only methodology for managing the energy transition that must occur in the next several decades. For a brief introduction to the elements of this argument about interconnection, readers might refer to an essay that I wrote.
Basically, however, the analysis is straightforward. For reasons that are technological, historical, and political, the strong likelihood, or even certainty, is undeniable that nuclear energy will result in the creation and sustenance of nuclear weapons. One may take the present imbroglio over Iran as only the clearest case of this point in the present pass.
The third lesson from above flows from the first two. No fossil source of energy, even the magnificently abundant coal that represents the remains of previous life on earth, can either provide peace or a secure source of energy. Atomic power, meanwhile, because it leads to the overwhelmingly likely possibility of weapons of mass destruction, is also malapropos in terms of 'national security.' Furthermore, because of issues of cost and environmental problems associated with the 'byproducts' that are not useable in weaponry, both of which issues receive copious coverage from multiple authorities, nukes are also problematic as a viable and reliable energy source.
Instead, people must gain the skills and knowledge, and, equally important, develop the networks, that permit them to watch out for their own and their children's and the ecosphere's interests, a basis for all sorts of important popular organizing over the past twenty years. The nub of this point, which is absolutely the core of this JustMeans blog, is that neither this 'skilling up' nor this increase in comprehension and participation will be possible except in the avowal of and struggle for true participatory democracy. In other words, rational energy choices depend on community-based-participatory political forms.
I've been commemorating Hiroshima and Nagasaki, in one way or another, almost every year since 1972. I cannot say with any certainty whether I am more like 'Chicken Little' or more akin to Cassandra. However, much wiser minds than mine--like the author and journalist John Hersey, who wrote Hiroshima, and Nobel Prize winning novelist Kenzaburo Oe, to name just two of thousands--that humanity pick up the 'clue phone' in regard to the threat of nuclear weapons.
As for me, on the day last week when I learned about the revival of the nuclear-umbrella ideology, I looked at myself sitting alone in my study in the dead of night . . . . . . and what I saw was an aged, powerless human being, motionless under the weight of this great outrage, just feeling the peculiarly concentrated tension, as if doing so (while doing nothing) were an art form in itself.
Three years ago, as part of the work that I did to memorialize this blinding flash in human history, I worked with one of my pupils, a Japanese post-doctoral student who needed help with writing and conversation, to make a more accessible translation of a powerful poem. She has a much clearer comprehension about what happened at the end of World War Two than do most Americans, which superior understanding also makes her more aware of the grave risks that confront a world that refuses to disembark from the nuclear highway. As such, she required no persuasion to make a substantial contribution to the path that I had demarcated for my younger charges.
She follows various trends in Japanese culture, including the literature of Hibakusha, who have for decades produced an outsize proportion of Japanese prose and poetry. She selected one of Sadako Kurihara's classical evocations of purpose in the face of infamy. Together, we retranslated, "New Life" (AKA "We Shall Bring Forth New Life") possibly Kurihara's most famous verse, which chillingly evokes the crack of doom awaiting a terran populace that insists on willful ignorance of these issues. The vision of Kurihara, both grim and grasping for hope, might inspire us in our endeavors.
Until I thought, "we all must die."
A young girl's voice sounded and transformed the suffering.
That might increase the forbidding darkness of our end?
Came simply this: "I am a midwife."
"Before I die, I can bring her child to life," she said with a sigh.
In part, I include such snippets from humanistic outpourings in an 'energy blog' because I maintain that all aspects of life interconnect with and depend on each other. We cannot achieve what we need to accomplish, in other words, without a mythic element to the task. Ms. Kurihara's optimism must be the basis for what fires us now to action. Our hope must have action as its basis; our hope must commit to peace and justice; our hope must come from a recognition of how we can help ourselves; our hope, if other than carnage is to be our fate, must look to a future that fundamentally transforms a past we have not yet understood.


Pentecost is the great Feast of the Holy Spirit. After the Ascension of Jesus into Heaven, the Holy Spirit came upon the apostles and the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Holy Spirit continues to bestow His many blessings upon us, blessings which allow us to be better disciples. The gifts of the Holy Spirit are unique because they strengthen our human nature. Let us call to mind the gifts which we receive from the Holy Spirit.
In the first place, we have the theological virtues of faith, hope and charity. Faith gives us the capacity to believe in God and in His words. Hope is the virtue which allows us to constantly pursue eternal life in God's kingdom. The virtue of charity makes us capable of loving God above all things and expressing God's love to our neighbors.
The second set of gifts are the cardinal virtues of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. Prudence is the virtue which gives us the ability to discern and distinguish in any circumstance the good from the evil, and to always choose the good. The virtue of justice allows us to give to God what belongs to Him (such as our worship) and to give mankind its due. Fortitude gives to our human nature the necessary firmness to pursue the good in times of difficulty. The virtue of temperance allows us to keep under control our desires and to balance the use of created goods.
Even more is given to us from the Third Person of the Holy Trinity. He bestows on our human nature His gifts of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the lord.
Finally, the Holy Spirit is willing to empower our human nature with His fruits of charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, and chastity. For these reasons and more we celebrate the great feast of Pentecost. Think about all the virtues, gifts and fruits which we can receive from The Holy Spirit if we are open to accepting them.
Which ones are those which we should pray for more? Happy Solemnity of Pentecost!


Dirk Quinn is the guitarist for a high energy funk/jazz band based out of Philadelphia that travels extensively throughout the US and Canada. Utilizing over a decade of steady performing, Quinn has developed a unique and progressive style – one that appeals to a wide variety of music listeners with fans ranging from the jam band hippies to the jazz snobs.
In 2007 Quinn made his long-awaited recording debut releasing his self-titled CD – "Dirk Quinn". Working the club and coffee house circuit, Quinn became increasingly in demand, playing as many as three gigs a day while getting the occasional call to share the stage with musical legends such as Steve Kimock, Bernie Worell, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Alan Evans (Soulive), Keller Williams, Garaj Mahal, Booker T, Jimmy Bruno, Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk, Kofi Burbridge (Derek Trucks Band), Marco Benevento, Zach Deputy, Jim Weider (The Band), Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Rodney Holmes (Santana), "DreamWeaver" Gary Wright, and Sam Kininger (Soulive) – each performance steadily garnering more recognition for Quinn, who believes in winning fans one by one on the merit of the music.
"QuinnTet", his sophomore CD release, features "thoughtful, original melodies flowing seamlessly over groove-heavy rhythms; intricate song structures giving way to strongly expressive, organic improvisations." Drawing inspiration from every musical genre, his solo acoustic sound has been compared to the guitar "pyrotechnics" of Keller Williams and Michael Hedges, while his full band compositions bear resemblances that range from the honest, urban funk of Soulive to the brave experimentation of Medeski, Martin and Wood.
Surrounding himself with a group of extremely talented and like-minded musicians, Quinn has been playing shows across North America while receiving an ever increasing amount of media attention. His music has now been featured on over 100+ radio stations worldwide and gets regular airplay in his hometown of Philadelphia. Notable spins include the "Pick of the Day" on WXPN in Philadelphia as well as on the nationally syndicated "Keller's Cellar" broadcast hosted by Keller Williams.
The Dirk Quinn Band released "Live at Home" in January of 2012. Featuring tracks recorded over 5 different shows in and around their hometown of Philadelphia, the new CD runs the gamut from beautiful and delicate movements to evil dissonance; from intricate and thought provoking melodies to hard driving funk and is a fantastic representation of the group's live show experience.

Roads to Glory: Late Imperial Russia and the Turkish Straits
Ronald Bobroff
Bloomsbury Academic, 24.02.2006 - 251 Seiten
Until now, it has been accepted that the Turkish Straits - the Russian fleet's gateway to the Mediterranean - were a key factor in shaping Russian policy in the years leading to World War I. Control of the Straits had always been accepted as the major priority of Imperial Russia's foreign policy. In this powerfully argued revisionist history, Ronald Bobroff exposes the true Russian concern before the outbreak of war: the containment of German aggression. Based on extensive new research, Bobroff provides fascinating new insights into Russia's state development before the revolution, examining the policies and personal correspondence of its policy makers. And through his detailed examination of the rivalries and alliances of the Triple Entente, he sheds new light on European diplomacy at the beginning of the twentieth century.

SURPRISE!!! 🤱 If you've wondered why I've been so absent on my social channels it's because I have never been more sick! It was the most sick first trimester of all my children. Boomerangs have made me nauseous, Superzoom is an easy way to have my head in the toilet, food instagrams make me queezy and thinking too much about insta stories made me even more exhausted than I already had been. If you've seen me out and about smiling and pretending like everything is amazing...I was lying! BUT! I have broken through on the other end of that and rediscovering the joys of insta/snap. We have been trying to keep this pregnancy under the radar for as long as possible but I'm a poppin now! And it's too darn challenging to hide, and frankly hiding is more exhausting then just coming out with it! My kids, Danny, myself and the entire family are crazy excited! A little girl on the way 💕
A post shared by Kate Hudson (@katehudson) on Apr 6, 2018 at 10:15am PDT
This is Hudson's first child with boyfriend Danny Fujikawa, who she's been dating for a little over a year. They met when she was 23 and pregnant with her first child, Ryder.
The first time I met Danny I was 23 and enormously pregnant with Ryder. His step sisters are my best friends @sarafoster @erinfoster and so it goes we have been in the same circle for over a decade! A year ago today Danny took me on a hike and what I thought was just a hike with a family friend turned very quickly into an unexpected first date. No moves were made on this first date. In fact, it took months for him to make a first move! And as a kiss on this bridge would have been nice, the kiss a year later was so much sweeter. So on our 15th year of knowing each other we were able to open our hearts to each other to feel so much pure love and it's been truly incredible.! ❤Happy first date anniversary baby. #LoveThisMan 🙏 #WhatAYear

Hudson has two sons Bingham, 6, (with Matt Bellamy) and Ryder, 14, (with ex-husband Chris Robinson). As you can tell from the video, she looks incredibly happy to welcome her first daughter. Congrats to the happy couple!

So there's some snow coming. Toronto's looking at 15-25 cm (about a foot) of snow and ice pellets, Ottawa's got 45-60 cm (about two feet) of snow coming, and I was planning on driving from Ottawa to Toronto tomorrow night. Awesome.
A few claps of thunder along with bursts of very heavy snow are also likely.
The brunt of the main snow event will begin this evening in the southwest and rapidly envelop all regions east to Ottawa in the overnight hours. Copious amounts of snow as well as strong winds causing blowing snow are expected.
In addition freezing rain is possible especially near Lake Erie for a few hours overnight and Sunday morning as milder air pays a brief visit aloft. Ice pellets are also quite possible generally along and south of a line from Grand Bend to near Toronto and east to Cornwall.
This massive snow storm has the potential to cause near-paralyzing conditions as road travel on any unplowed streets may become next to impossible on Sunday.
There is a high degree of certainty with this storm as the concensus [sic] of weather model data is virtually unanimously forecasting this event.
Put down the thesaurus, guys! (I liked it better when the forecasts were written by military meteorologists.) Welp, at least I'll get to try out my new snow tires and Sorel boots.


You'll know, if you are a regular visitor to my blog, of my involvement in a project which is aiming to ensure that primary material from the upsurge of interest in workers' coops in Britain in the 1970s-1990s is saved and preserved. I was at a meeting today in Manchester of the informal committee which is seeking to ensure that this initiative (what we calling Working Together: recording and preserving the heritage of the workers' co-operative movement) gets the resources it needs to get going.
We worked up a detailed grant application for the project which was submitted to the Heritage Lottery Fund this summer, and we have now heard back from HLF. They say that they had applications for three times the money they had available for distribution – and disappointingly we have been one of the unlucky ones.
However, all is definitely not lost. HLF accept resubmissions, and we are now going to talk to them again about how we can strengthen our bid and maximise our chance of success. We hope a revised application can be submitted before Christmas. I'll keep you posted.

Rio Lagartos is part of a National Park that holds huge populations of baby tarpon between 2 and 50 pounds. Add the migratory tarpon up to 200 pounds that arrive in the summer and you have a complete tarpon fishery.
Good clean accommodations are paired with the best guides in the preserve. The preserve has miles and miles of grass flats, mangrove creeks and lagoons to hunt for tarpon. Some of this is sight fishing and other time blind casting to a likely spot under the mangroves. You may need some weedless flies for this if your casting skills are a bit like mine!
The trip starts with your arrival in Cancun. You will make your way through customs and find our driver holding a sign with your name. From there it is about a 4 hour drive on smooth roads through flat terrain. Every so often you will slow down for a small village . These villages are usually made up of Mayan descent.
You will be driving to the village of San Felipe on the northwestern edge of the Yucatan Peninsula. There is one hotel in town and it is the San Felipe Hotel. This is your headquarters for the trip. You will get meals there daily and depart for the days fishing directly from the hotel. The hotel is nothing fancy, just clean comfortable rooms. It is not the Ritz! Breakfast is usually very early to make sure we get some good time in just as the light is coming up. Fly Fishing for tarpon means an early morning start as the tarpon are more active at night and in low light than during the heat of the day. We still find fish all day long it is just prime time very early. The hotel will prepare a lunch for us to enjoy out on the water. There is plenty of water and cervesa supplied with lunch as well.
It takes 20-30 minute to reach the prime water. The guides know the tides and winds very well so they will direct the days fishing taking you to where the tides and wind conditions are most favorable. If it is nice and calm you might look for some of the bigger fish out in the open flats. If it is a bit windy you will head directly into the sheltered ares of the Rio Lagartos preserve. There are hundreds on miles of mangrove lined lagoons a creeks to choose from. All of them harboring baby tarpon. After returning to the hotel there will be some time to explore the little town, tie some flies and relax. This area has more baby tarpon than we have seen any where in the world. During spring and summer there is also an influx of large tarpon.
The accommodations at Rio Lagartos are comfortable, bright, and enriched with traditional Mexican decor. With the ocean at its doorstep, the sea breeze and beautiful scenery refreshes the spirit after a long day of fighting tarpon. A spacious lounge provides dining areas, comfortable seating for relaxing, and a nice workspace for fly tying or working on tackle at the day's end.
As we venture upstairs, you will find spacious guest rooms equipped with air-conditioning, fans, and a full private bath with shower. Rooms are bright with a nice ocean view. There is a housekeeping service that cleans the room and replaces linens, towels, bottled drinking water, cups, and bar soap each day. A unique feature of the lodge is a nice rooftop balcony. It provides a splendid 360 degree view of the charming area surrounding the lodge – perfect for after-dinner relaxation.
In addition to world-class fishing, the hallmark of Rio Lagartos is their warm hospitality and top-level service. The staff members at Tarpon Cay Lodge are some of the most friendly and hardworking people you will ever meet. They are sincerely committed to making your stay comfortable and enjoyable.
The hotel and food are not fancy, just simple, clean and basic. There is not a honeymoon suite within 200 miles!
The tarpon fishing in this area is quite varied. There are open water flats with larger tarpon cruising around, Mangrove lined creeks and lagoons with mid sized tarpon cruising under the branches of the overhanging mangroves, inland lakes and lagoons . This is a nursery for fish between 2 and 50 pounds. Late spring and summer brings some larger fish into the mix as well, maybe over 100 pounds!
Snook are also in the mangrove areas and you will target these fish whenever we see them.
Tarpon are most active early in the morning saw we are usually off by dawn to the flats the guides have chosen to visit that the day. The area that has tarpon is quite large extending through the entire Rio Lagartos preserve. A good day of tarpon fishing means you might jump 20 fish – we have recorded a boat that jumped 50 fish in a day. Many tarpon are lost on one of the first few jumps so the percentage you actually get to the boat is low. 10-20% is the number that actually get all the way to the boat.Fly Fishing for tarpon here at Rio Lagartos is fly fishing heaven!
On the open flats your guide will pole and search for rolling tarpon ( which is about all you see when the light is low or as the sun gets higher you will be able to sight the fish in the clear water even if they are not rolling. Getting a tarpon to eat a fly is sometimes the easiest thing in the world of fly fishing or the most frustrating. Long follows are possible ending up in a refusal or a take 5 feet from the boat. Sometimes the tarpon attack as soon as they see movement, sometimes they spook just because the fly moves funny ( I don't really know what funny is to a tarpon). Long casts are helpful out here in the open as it will increase your circle of effectiveness.
In the mangrove areas accuracy can be more important, slinging it under some branches or hitting the pocket between the overhanging mangroves is a more important skill than casting 100 feet. In many area the water is clear and in others it is stained to the color of tea. Still most fish are sighted first. Often the fish will be clear of the mangrove but more often they will cruise just under the overhanging branches. A hook up in there is usually followed by a leap over the branches and off the hook, but what a blast. Once in a while we get lucky and the tarpon blasts out into the open, you just never know!
There are some smaller creeks and inland lakes that have lots of small fish in the 2-5 pound range. These are very aggressive fish and blind casting is most effective. It doesn't matter how big or small a tarpon is – they all jump once they are hooked. It is the best fighting game fish I know of. Add to that the fact that you can sight fish and hunt for these fish in shallow water and it is hard to argue that there is any better game fish on the planet.
I hope you get to experience this unique fishery while it is still undiscovered.

Take a tarpon tour of the Yucatan. Visit 2 Yucatan Lodges in one trip Note: it will require an extra non-fishing day mid trip to transfer by van to the next destination. You can combine Isla Blanca, Rio Lagartos, Isla del Sabalo and Campeche tarpon trips! My favorite combination is Rio Lagartos and Isla del Sabalo, or Isla del Sabalo and Campeche.

Why book it through us when you could book direct?
If you don't like fly fishing for tarpon then this destination is not going to be for you. You could make some Mayan ruin tour happen, you could do some birding or other eco tours but the truth is there is nothing organized for these activities.
So please be forewarned and speak to me if you are considering bringing a non-fishing friend along on this trip.
From Cancun, you will be driven 3 hours northwest in our shuttle van – a comfortable, air-conditioned extended van. The ride is very comfortable, as all roads traveled are paved and well maintained. During the drive, you will venture through the beautiful Yucatan countryside and a few very unique traditional Mexican towns.
