Q: object declaration and definition in c++
Possible Duplicate:
Do the parentheses after the type name make a difference with new?

I saw someone uses the constructor like this:
class Foo
{
  public: Foo();
};

int main(){
  Foo *f= new Foo;
}

what is the difference between Foo *f= new Foo; and Foo *f= new Foo();  ?

A: There is no difference between those two forms of initializations. Both will call the default constructor, given that the constructor is public.

A: Ỳour example probably even won't compile, you need to declare a pointer
 Foo *f = new Foo;

and there is no difference in typing new Foo or new Foo() since both run the constructor with no arguments.

A: First of all the code you give will not compile. You need to have
Foo* f = new Foo()
Notice the asterisk.
Otherwise the two calls have the same result for non-primitive types. I have worked in companies where the () syntax is enforced by the styleguide and for a good reason: for primitive types there can be a difference:
int* p = new p;
cout << *p << endl; // the value is arbitrary i.e. behavior is undefined.
int* q = new int();
cout << *q << endl; // outputs 0.

It may be obvious here but imagine that Foo is a typedef for instance. So my advice is: always use the Foo() syntax.

He calls his father a warrior, remembering a time in the 1950s when he took his three dark-skinned boys to get Mohawk haircuts. Back then, showing off their family's Native American heritage in Hanford, a small Central California dairy-farm community, was an act of courage.
But Alan Salazar would prefer that his children think of him as the "village's fastest runner," a man with conviction who spreads messages of truth about the Chumash people who inhabited Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Los Angeles counties before the Europeans arrived.
Salazar, or Spirit Hawk, is an active member of the Chumash and Tataviam tribes who leads spiritual prayers and watches over ancient burial sites to be sure they are protected from construction work. In June, he walked 90 miles in hopes of saving a sacred mountain from being taken over by parking lots.
And Sunday, Salazar will spin stories of his alter-ego, Running Hawk, a boy who dreams of coyotes and bears and learns lessons from these animal spirits.
Salazar is the first in a series of storytellers and craftspeople who will entertain families free each Sunday this month at Rancho Sierra Vista/Satwiwa in Newbury Park. "Satwiwa Sundays" is a joint effort of the Friends of Satwiwa and the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area.
"The National Park Service chose to work with local Native American Indians, like the Chumash, to bring together all tribes and to teach visitors native heritage," said park spokeswoman Jean Bray. She said Salazar will speak while standing by an 'ap, a dome-shaped Chumash house made from willow trees and tule grass.
His dark eyes dance when he tells his tales. His long gray-and-black hair blows in the wind. His brown, muscular body springs to life when he recalls his childhood, which is the basis for most of his stories. Simple words like "tree," "bear" and "ocean" turn into magic when they escape his lips.
"I want people to know that the Indian people were, and still are, a complex society that has contributed to making America a great country," said Salazar, who wears a silver hawk ring given to him by a friend he calls a medicine woman.
"I want them to know that we are sportsmen and theologians and scholars. I don't want to leave them with the impression . . . that many people have of us as being savages."
Salazar and his aunt, Beverly Folkes, 58, of Thousand Oaks, are both leaders at the Oakbrook Chumash Interpretive Center who became involved in teaching others about their heritage nearly a decade ago. They said they saw how ignorant most people were about Native Americans, and how so many hungered for more information.
People don't even realize that Native Americans are still alive and living in their neighborhoods, Folkes said. That's why she has made it her mission to tell people, especially children, about herself, her family and her people.
"Now that I am an elder, I always say to the [kids], 'Pay attention.' I want to educate this next generation," Folkes said.
The Salazar family has strong ancestral ties in Southern California, according to John Johnson, curator of anthropology at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. Salazar's great-grandfather, Antonio Maria Ortega, was born in 1852 at the San Fernando Mission, where his records were put on file.
Johnson said he has been studying Chumash marriage and family patterns for 20 years and has records of nearly 20,000 people with Native American Indian ancestry. He has helped 200 people find their roots in the last four years--that's how he met Salazar and Folkes. Johnson estimated there are at least 3,000 people with traceable Chumash ancestry in the area.
Salazar is more than a story-teller.
When he finishes telling stories at Satwiwa, he will head over to Market Street in Port Hueneme to join others in saying a spiritual goodbye to a 375-year-old Monterey cypress called Grandpa, which is diseased and will be chopped down.
On Monday, the 46-year-old Salazar, who also works with his brothers in a family plastering and construction business, will resume work with the California Department of Transportation, where he has been contracted as an archeological monitor to make sure that Chumash burial sites aren't destroyed or stolen as construction crews widen parts of California 126.
"I watch them work, scoop by scoop, to make sure I don't see any human bones [in the dirt]," Salazar said. So far, nothing of ancestral significance has been found.
In June, Salazar trekked 90 miles from his beachside home in Ventura to a sacred Native American site, Iwihinmu, or Mt. Pinos, in Kern County. His goal: to raise community awareness about Los Padres National Forest officials' plans to erect $4 million worth of parking lots on the mountain to boost winter skiing attendance.
With blistered feet and taped toes, Salazar walked all but seven or eight miles--where his 24-year-old daughter picked up the slack--to reach the top of the 8,800-foot peak and show people that individuals can rise to the challenge of making a difference in the world. He drew strength by visualizing a hawk powering its legs for a takeoff and then flying lazily in the air.
"I knew this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," he said. "To show my children that some things in this world are just that important."
Aug. 10--Hank Stevens talking about cultural sovereignty.
Aug. 17--Mati and Gina Waiya displaying Chumash material culture.
Aug. 24--Georgianna Sanchez telling stories about Chumash and Tohono-O'Odham life.
Aug. 31--Vitus Jack showing his native Alaskan carvings.

SP-BSP launch new face Shalini Yadav to challenge Modi from Varanasi seat
By: trainee
Nagpur : THE Samajwadi Party has fielded Shalini Yadav as the joint candidate of the SP-BSP alliance in Varanasi to challenge Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha elections. A light-weight candidate, Shalini Yadav has unsuccessfully contested the Mayoral polls in Varanasi on a Congress ticket in 2017. Shalini Yadav is the daughter of former Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairperson Shyamlal Yadav.
Samajwadi Party sources said that none of the senior party leaders in the region were willing to contest against the Prime Minister and the party then decided to field Shalini Yadav who joined the party on Monday evening. "I will work to the best of my abilities under the guidance of Akhilesh Yadav and try to wrest the seat from the BJP.
The youth is on our side and nothing is impossible if you make the effort," she told reporters. The Varanasi seat had been won by Murli Manohar Joshi in 2009 and became a VIP seat in 2014 when Narendra Modi defeated his nearest rival Arvind Kejriwal of the Aam Aadmi Party by a huge margin of over 3.75 lakh votes. Polling in Varanasi will be held in the last phase of elections on May 19.

Half of American Millennials Interested In Using Crypto Exclusively
Margi BrambhattSeptember 8, 2018Last Updated: September 18, 2020
It comes as a no surprise that nowadays masses are becoming informed and acknowledged about the nature of blockchain and cryptocurrencies as a result. Ever since the introduction of these digital platforms, it always carried with it a curiosity among the people to know and learn about the recent upcoming events including them.
But it was proved in numbers when recently a research study found that more than half the voters among a total of 1,202 adults would like to choose trading cryptocurrency exclusively, as opposed to the primary utilization of U.S. dollar. Similar research was conducted a few weeks ago, which resulted in the conclusion that more than 75% of the total population (in the U.S.) was aware of the term and its characterization.
Bitcoin Supremacy
Bitcoin currently dominates the crypto market which calculated according to the largest cryptocurrency ruling the charts. It has been this way through many highs and lows in the market cap and bitcoin has always managed to secure its way into the shares. Currently, the bitcoin dominates at 54.8% of the total market capitalization. If we are looking at the figures for other currencies, it is conclusive that bitcoin remains to be the most popular and important, in this study, especially for the millennials.
Recently the crypto market shared a crucial fall in a matter of hours, which has decreased the value of bitcoin to less than $6,500 but it is still leading the charts of cryptocurrency market and popular choice. The research that proved the acknowledgment of at least one cryptocurrency among 79% of Americans was led by YouGov Omnibus, on 29-30 August.
Among the aggregate, people associated with the knowledge of Bitcoin amounted to 71% and those who had heard of leading second-best cryptocurrency Ethereum, were 13% of the total. It showed the number of people who had heard of either of the currencies or about any cryptocurrency.
Among the voters, it came as a surprise that out of the total men reviewed, only 13% of them were completely unaware of the term of with any acknowledgment of cryptocurrencies. It is yet smaller proportion as opposed to 27% of the total women interviewed who admitted that they had no idea about any cryptocurrency at all.
U.S. Dollar Replacement
The study mentioned earlier showcased that approximately 36 percent of Americans were the ones to believe that there will be a near future which crowned a widespread cryptocurrency adoption in the economy at this point. Interestingly, they were also of the opinion that cryptocurrency might use for legal and economic purchases in the next ten years or so. And out of those who presented such a conclusive and clear viewpoint, 44 percent were millennials.
When asked about converting to cryptocurrency as a primary feature, more than one-third of the total people reviewed agreed and accepted to the conversion in coming years. They admitted that they were interested in rather using cryptocurrency than U.S. dollar if the technology demands. Also, it is noteworthy to mention that almost 48% of millennials were willing to show their interests in the use of cryptocurrency than U.S. dollar.
However, the majority of the voters, more than 57%, were of the strong opinion that they would much rather rely on utilizing U.S. dollar for purchases and buying rather than cryptocurrency. Even the millennials were equally on both sides of the opinion, where 48% showed agreed interest whereas 50% were not interested in the conversion.
But out of all, there were 87% of interviewees who said that they had no interaction with cryptocurrency or bitcoin whatsoever. Many said that they were glad not to have bought it and don't intend on planning otherwise soon. Other said that they didn't buy when the prices were low, and now it might be too late.

public interface StudentRepository extends CrudRepository<Student, Long> {

    @Query(value = "select o from Student  o  where (o.name = :#{#studentRequest.name} OR :#{#studentRequest.name} IS NULL ) ")
    public List<Student> getAll(@Param("studentRequest") StudentRequest studentRequest, PageRequest pageRequest);
}

A: Check the error:
use @Param on all parameters except Pageable and Sort typed once, or none at all!
This means that you cannot use @Param in a Pageable (or PageRequest) and Sort parameters, they are handled automatically by spring.
Just remove the @Param("pageRequest") and it will work.
Tip: Use Pageable interface instead of PageRequest class.

A: It looks like the assertion that's failing just wants you to either have AllParamAnnotatedOrNone. So you would do:
public List<Student> getAll(@Param("studentRequest") StudentRequest studentRequest,
    @Param("pageRequest") PageRequest pageRequest);

Even though you're not using it; you just need one pattern (i.e. named Spring Data params) here or the other (i.e. inferred Spring Data param names).

One to Watch: Tyler Braden Jun 23, 2018
29 year old country artist Tyler Braden has always been surrounded by music. Growing up in Slapout, Alabama just 27 miles outside of Montgomery, both Tyler's parents and aunts and uncles sang. He jokes that the only person in his family that doesn't sing is his sister, and that he's never even heard her sing. Tyler got his musical start when he was 19 performing in Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace cover bands. It was only after winning a local singing competetion in 2015, which gave him an opportunity to record in Nashville, that Tyler's draw towards country music began to take shape.
Tyler moved to Nashville in July of 2016 working as a local firefighter. A few months later Braden recorded his debut single "Little Red Wine" in the attic of Kelsea Ballerini's former front of house. Now, less than a year after being released, "Little Red Wine" has racked up over 4.2 MILLION streams and is on several of Spotify's most coveted playlists. With a new single coming out shortly Tyler and I sat down to talk about his music and journey to Music City:
When you first moved to Nashville did you have people you knew you already wanted to write with and work with? Was co-writing something you had done before?
Tyler: I didn't know how co-writing really worked. I'd never written with anybody. Going into it, I had thought everybody co-writes and I was worried I wouldn't be viewed as a team player if I hadn't done that. I learned that it's a whole other world when I can take an idea I'm looking at tunnel visioned to another writer to get an outside perspective. It helps so much that you start to almost rely on it. I've even felt it already where I'll be writing by myself and start to doubt something and think "oh I should get so and so to help me finish this". Most writers are good about that though. If you bring them something they'll go "oh man you've already got this pretty much finished and I don't want to mess it up". I think it's them understanding sometimes you need to write by yourself.
Let's talk about "Little Red Wine" and how it came to be such a breakthrough song for you:
Tyler: I actually recorded it at the beginning of the year last year (2017). I got it out in June and within a few weeks I had a lot of people reaching out to me. It did relatively well on it's own on Spotify. Then I got a manager who is really close with John Marks. It December it got put on New Boots and since then it has built up over 4 millions streams.
What is next for you musically?
Tyler: We've got the second one ready now called "Leave Me Alone" that will be coming out soon. It's pretty different from "Little Red Wine". The beginning of the song "Leave Me Alone" has an acoustic guitar playing this picking pattern. That pattern came from a rock song I wrote 10 years ago. I play it all the time instinctually when I pick up a guitar and I realized it fit this song. "Leave Me Alone" has more of an ambiance to it than "Red Wine".
Every artist is influenced and inspired by dozens of other artists throughout the span of their career. With that said, if you were to pick your musical parents who would they be?
Tyler: I don't want to be too cliche with it [laughs]. My musical grandfather would be George Jones. If it had to say my musical father would be Dave Grohl. In my head I was thinking Eric Church but I bet everyone says that. He would be my alternate father [laughs]. For my musical mother part of me wants to go old school but the person that's coming up in my head is actually younger than me and that's Raelynn. I feel as if she has an old soul though. The first time I really paid attention to one of her songs was "Love Triangle". That is one of the most well written songs ever.
Check out Tyler's hand picked playlist just for the Jam Catchers' readers below and keep an eye out for his new single "Leave Me Alone" out soon!

Tyler Braden is alittle off on when her s music career started! When he threw his dad would introduce him and he would come out of the bathroom of the hotel room with his guitar and play songs for our fellow workers and they would throw money on the bed! He realized he was making money so he would say , " which one would you pay the most for? " you lied" or "friends in low places"?etc. he would stand up and pick his toy guitar as a toddler while his his uncles played and sang. He would sing and if he messed up he would say " oops I gotta start all over"! I'm his biggest fan!! I'm his mama!

His Wicked Games by Ember Casey
Lily Frazer would do anything to save the Frazer Center for the Arts–even take on the infamous billionaire Calder Cunningham. When Lily breaks onto the Cunningham estate, she only wants to find and reason with Calder. (All right, all right, she wants to punch him in the face, too, but that's Plan B.) As it turns out, the arrogant billionaire is willing to give her the money he promised, but there's a catch: she must win it from him.
And the games he has in mind aren't exactly… innocent.
Lily isn't about to give up the money without a fight (or let some haughty bastard seduce her), but she quickly discovers that there might be more to the brooding Calder than she initially perceived. As their games of cat and mouse become increasingly intense, she suddenly finds herself confused by her own emotions. Can she deny her attraction long enough to win the money she needs?
A contemporary, steamy take on Beauty and the Beast, His Wicked Games is a tale of devilish deeds, wild passions, and wicked romance.
Exit Strategy by L.V. Lewis
Exit Strategy (noun) 1. A preplanned means of extricating oneself from a situation that is likely to become difficult or unpleasant. 2. The method by which a venture capitalist or business owner intends to get out of an investment that he or she has made in the past.
Will Keisha and Tristan exercise their elaborate EXIT STRATEGY and end their unorthodox arrangement?
Assailed by demons she thought she had conquered, Keisha Beale has uttered the words to end her tumultuous relationship with Tristan White. Separated, they grapple for a time with their personal demons. However, when their lives apart become unbearable, a credible threat brings them back together prematurely.
As they seek to discover who is responsible for the threats, several seemingly unrelated incidents throw them into a tailspin. Will Keisha's youthful indiscretions or Tristan's un-reconciled feelings for a former sub derail their tenuous arrangement?
In the meantime, trouble in Nathan and Jada's paradise send dramatic ripples that hint of future difficulties in the idyllic pairing.
Tristan uses his vast wealth and connections to correct a gross miscarriage of justice, while Keisha makes herself utterly vulnerable to Tristan and fears he has chosen to exercise his own exit strategy.
…Nothing Gained!
Will this be the end of the indecent arrangement that became a fairy tale? Or will Keisha and Tristan reveal the trauma from their pasts so they may heal and completely embrace their relationship?
Holding Out For Skye by S.R. McKade
Things are finally starting to look up for Skye Fletcher. She's got a new job with a great salary, she's finally out of the rat-trap she used to live in and into a decent apartment. She couldn't be happier. Except for the thorn in her side, a.k.a. Cian Hunter, her arrogant and too good-looking co-worker whom she has the misfortune of being stuck with.
In spite of himself, Cian Hunter fell hard for the surly, unfriendly woman who made no secret of her dislike for him. He knows he and Skye are meant to be. Convincing her of that fact seems like an impossible feat. However, he's utterly confident he's up to the task. His future and his happiness depend on it, after all.
When Skye's one impulsive, uncharacteristic little act changes the status-quo between them, her life gets entangled with Cian's way more than she's comfortable with.
That's when her life really turns upside down…
The Advent of Lena, a Tale of Beauty and the Beast by Neil M Campbell
Chloe Lambert is used to men looking at her twice but for all the wrong reasons – they cannot believe how ugly she is. She has no reason to think Park Delafield, of the perfect profile and cheek bones to die for, is any different when he insults her in a pub. But all is not as it seems, turns out he's looking for salvation and has decided she's the one. Only trouble is, Chloe's not so sure.
When a stranger in a bar loudly comments on her appearance, Chloe Lambert can only assume that the remark which cut her to the bone was for him simply a casual aside. Park Delafield, however, at once struck down for his savagery by a friend of Chloe's, is visited in his humiliation by the insight that only the love of the woman he has offended can redeem the despicable individual he has become. He sets out to win Chloe but she, bewildered by his attentions and repelled by his egotism, wants no part in his quest. Until his tireless persistence, combined with her own curiosity about his true personality and motives, soften her distrust of his sincerity. Warily she allows him into her life, thus seeding hurricanes of self-discovery, reckless commitment, and searing betrayal through which all involved journey toward disaster . . . or liberation and redemption.
Secondhand Romance by RoseAnn DeFranco
Annie O'Malley's dream of owning a secondhand bookstore in tight-knit Audubon Springs is coming true. Still reeling from her parents' sudden deaths, she believes that signs or messages can be found within the pages of books. She loves her job and has made plenty of friends but longs for the acceptance only love and a family can provide.
Tony Iuliano is there to fix the wiring in her shop. He doesn't believe in fate, magic, or the power of a good book. All this combined with his sexy-as-sin presence and all-knowing attitude infuriates Annie. The quirky bookworm intrigues him enough to accept her bet to read a book from her shop. When he discovers a stack of fifty-year-old love letters in the book, he wants to leave the past alone, but seeing it as a sign, Annie challenges him to read the letters and search for the long-lost lovers or lose the bet.
While shaking the dust off several ill-fated romances and fighting their attraction at every turn, the pair soon become the town gossip daily special. If they can stop arguing long enough, they may just discover this particular sign was meant for them all along.

Desire can't wait for privacy. Neither should you.

Redeeming The Amazon by L.V. Lewis
How does a former supermodel deal with body image when she's lost an essential hallmark of her femininity?
Most come to The Beaudelaire Hotel a few times a year merely to indulge in sexual fantasy, but the stakes are higher for Karen Freeman and Paul Beaudelaire. Karen is nine years post-op from a double mastectomy, and her vain ex-husband hadn't agreed with her decision to remove her remaining good breast or to eschew reconstruction. In the end, that decision cost her. She lost her marriage, but she's certain the move prolonged her life.
Returning to a normal dating and sex life has been difficult. She hasn't made love fully unclothed since the demise of her marriage, and her most significant relationship occurred right after her surgery. While recuperating, she had an affair of the heart with a Marine amputee who'd also been her Ph.D. classmate.
Paul Beaudelaire once had his pick of women in the upper echelons of New Orleans society. He'd been satisfied to continue in that vein, until his career in the Marine Corps was cut short by the loss of his left leg. Paul returned home with the best prosthesis Johns Hopkins could fit him with, but left his heart in Baltimore.
Can a marine amputee restore a beautiful model whose body has been ravaged by cancer? Will this fantasy weekend at his Uncle Henri's hotel give him a second chance with his contemporary Amazon, or will her fear of rejection be a barrier to their reconnection?

Sensationally Somber: Taylor Sheridan's 'Wind River' Is a Wonderfully Made Thriller With Excellent Acting
If you are a fan of last year's excellent modern Western Hell or High Water, get yourself into a theater to see Wind River.
The writer of Hell or High Water, Taylor Sheridan, writes and directs Wind River. He is a true wordsmith who captures American dilemmas on par with Sam Shepard and Cormac McCarthy. The man knows how to pen a great thriller with depth, and his works (he also wrote Sicario) all have a common, somber tone. This is a guy who knows that many of the people you will pass on the street are dealing with grief and loss—they are surviving, but it's a bitch, and it's not going to get easier.
Wind River marks Sheridan's second directorial effort, after 2011's low-budget Vile, and it stands as one of the summer's best films. It's a solid mystery-thriller, and a showcase for fierce performances from Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen. They both offer up career-best work, with Renner searing the screen as Cory, a man with a tragic past who is paid to hunt wolves and mountain lions on a Native American reservation. Olsen commands her screen time as Jane, one of cinema's gutsiest FBI agents since Clarice Starling.
Sheridan, who directs with style and grace, gives us a haunting image to start his movie: Natalie (Kelsey Asbille), a young Native American woman, is running across a freezing nightscape with no shoes on. She's scared for her life, but we don't know why. Soon, we will find out.
Cory is patrolling snow-covered grounds, shooting wolves from long distances. He's stoic and level-headed, a quiet man whose emotions never go to a fever pitch. However, when Cory discovers the body of the woman we saw in the opening sequence, it's clear that the woman's identity strikes a chord in his heart.
Cory and his ex-wife (Julia Jones) have lost a child, and they are doing their best to give their living son (Teo Briones) a happy life in the aftermath. Their lost daughter was the best friend of the new victim—understandably setting something off in Cory. When FBI Agent Jane shows up, lost in a snowstorm and looking for answers, he's more than willing to help with the investigation.
Sheridan's mystery builds from there, as the identity of the murderer is not immediately apparent. Considering the murder took place on a sparsely populated reservation, there aren't many suspects, but Sheridan will keep you guessing—and you'll suspect everybody onscreen. The conclusion doesn't feel like a narrative cheat, as so many murder mysteries do. The conclusion resonates with horror and bleakness; you aren't going to have a typical good time at this movie.
You will, however, be witnessing remarkable work by Renner. He's tasked with some of the most emotionally brutal scenes an actor has had to handle this year. He's been impressive before (in The Hurt Locker), but this takes his stock to a new level. When he recounts the death of his daughter to Jane, the story almost knocks her on her ass—and you can relate. I mentioned that Cory is stoic, but he's most certainly not one-dimensional. Renner finds ample nuance and power in this character's quiet pain.
Olsen matches Renner on all fronts. Her Jane is a by-the-book type who must make some major adjustments in the field while dealing with the grief all around her. Jane is supposed to be setting the table for a bigger investigation, but she finds herself drawing her gun more than once; she's in it for the long haul. The character goes through many phases during film's 107-minute running time, and Olsen makes all of them intriguing.
Gil Birmingham (who also starred in Hell or High Water) and Graham Greene round out one of the year's best ensemble casts.
Wind River will exhaust you by the time credits roll. It'll bum you out—as it damn well should.
Wind River is now playing at the Regal Rancho Mirage Stadium 16 (72777 Dinah Shore Drive; 844-462-7342), the Palm Desert 10 Cinemas (72840 Highway 111, Palm Desert; 760-340-0033) and the Century La Quinta and XD (46800 Washington St., La Quinta; 760-771-5682.)

Q: MySQL in node.js, error when attempting to connect I am having trouble connecting to a database using the MySQL module in node.js. I can't seem to find out exactly why, and the resources seem to be very limited. From my research I have found similar errors in v4.0 and v4.2, but the version of node that I am running is v6.2.2.
var mysql = require('mysql');
var pool = mysql.createPool({
  connectionLimit : 10,
  host            : 'psegds-dev',
  port        : '5123',
  user            : 'Admin',
  password        : 'password',
  database        : 'EROUNDS_ADMIN'
});

pool.getConnection(function(err, connection) {
    if(err) console.error(err);

    console.log("In getConnection");
    //connection.release();

});

With this code I receive the following error:
In getConnection

There is a long pause and the print statement is not executed until the error shows up which tells me the getConnection() function is failing. When I include functions like:

Then I get typeerrors like this:

I have tried using the pool variable instead of the connection variable when running the query() and release() functions. I have tried setting up a single connection, opposed to the pool, but using similar code and got the same errors. I am able to log onto the server with my credentials so I know they're correct.
I have the following c# server code from a working connection string
connection string="data source=psegds-dev,5123;initial
catalog=*password*;integrated security=True;multipleactiveresultsets=True;application name=EntityFramework""

C# is not my strongest language, but I don't see what is applicable as well as different from my code. Any help is much appreciated.

Wilhelm Berkefeld (* 29. Mai 1836 in Lüneburg; † 8. April 1897 in Celle) war ein deutscher Ingenieur. Er erfand 1891 den nach ihm benannten Berkefeld-Filter zur Reinigung von Trinkwasser.

Leben
Berkefeld stammte aus Lüneburg und war zunächst als Buchhalter tätig. Als Alfred Nobel nach der Erfindung des Dynamits (patentiert 1867) große Mengen Kieselgur für seine Fabrik in Krümmel benötigte, erwarb Berkefeld mit finanzieller Unterstützung durch Nobel die Rechte an einer Kieselgurgrube bei Celle und lieferte dafür zu vergünstigten Preisen an Nobel.

Bei Spaziergängen in der Lüneburger Heide bemerkte Berkefeld, dass die dort vorkommende Kieselgur als Filter für das Oberflächenwasser wirkte. Diese Beobachtung setzte er unternehmerisch in kurzer Zeit um, entwickelte aus Kieselgur gebrannte Filterkerzen und schuf dazu in Porzellanausführung die ersten Berkefeld-Filter. 1892 gründete er seine Firma "Berkefeld-Filter" in Celle und nutzte die nahen Kieselgurvorkommen in Unterlüß für seine Produktion. Bei der Cholera-Epidemie in Hamburg 1892 wurden die Berkefeld-Filter erfolgreich eingesetzt. Dies sorgte fortan für eine weltweite Verbreitung der Berkefeld-Filter.

Bis heute entwickelt und fertigt die Firma an ihrem Heimatstandort Celle Wasserfilteranlagen für Industrie, Militär und Katastrophenschutzorganisationen in aller Welt. Sie war bis 1978 in Familienbesitz, gehört heute zur Veolia Water Technologies-Gruppe und firmiert unter Veolia Water Technologies Deutschland GmbH. Der Hauptsitz dieser Firma befindet sich in Celle.

Claims are part of our everyday lives here at the BNSF. With this obviously known, we need to make sure that every member has a complete understanding of the claims processes and agreements and how they effect us. There is a large amount of misinformation on how claims are to be input, how claims are handled and what actually is a valid claim or not. So hopefully this section will help us clarify a very important part of our union.
One of the most important parts of this process is to have the agreements. Once you have the agreements, you need to read and refer to them when trying to understand if the carrier has instructed you to do something outside of your agreement. The carrier will instruct you to violate the agreements and this will start the claims process. One misunderstanding of the agreements is that the carrier can not instruct you to do something outside of the agreements pertaining to your specific job. They can not instruct you to violate a rule, federal law or the safety of yourself and your union Brothers and Sisters.
When the carrier does not follow the agreements, it is up to you to file every claim for what is owed to you. It is also very well known that many of these violations occur as the carrier officer and yourself do not know the agreements. Once again, it is your responsibility to read, understand and/or request understanding of the agreements as it is your responsibility to input and be knowledgeable in this process.
There are many different agreements out there. You have some that encompass the entire SMART-TD, some that are only for the BNSF and more that are down to the former railroads and locations. It is important to know that the grievance that you input has be factual and have supporting information about the violation(s) and supporting information from the agreement(s).
We also hear that people don't put in claims as "the carrier will just deny it anyways" or "I don't have time to input it in the computer." You must understand that this is a violation. Putting in a claim takes less than five minutes. This five minutes will hold the carrier to the agreements and ensure that these agreements are held firm.
If you forward a claim to your Local Chairperson, you will need to review these guidelines set forth by the General Chairman's office. We will not process claims that do not have supporting documentation per the General Committee guidelines and the UTU Constitution. Remember, you already have a large majority of the paperwork when you come on duty. Keep your paperwork, make copies and turn it in. If we turn in a claim without supporting documentation and the carrier challenges it, we could lose the grievance for the entire system. This is very important and your responsibility. You must also forward this claim electronically to your representative to process.
Grievances must be reduced to writing, contain complete information on the subject matter and be submitted to the Local Committee of Adjustment holding jurisdiction. Grievances involving violations of the agreement, reinstatement, safety or health and welfare shall be given prompt handling with local officials of the employer. A report by the committee will be made at the next meeting. When grievances are being considered by a Local, only those members employed in a craft on the territory involved shall be permitted to vote, provided that at least five (5) such members must be present before any action can be taken. If more than one (1) craft is involved, the grievance shall be considered and determined separately by each craft.
We also have a expedited claims handling agreement that we utilize in our committee. This allows us to handle all claims with one designated carrier officer. If at this time that a grievance is not agreed upon at the local level, we will then forward to the General Chairman's office for handling. Once you turn in your claim(s), we will post on the Claims Conference page the status of that claim. We will then have the handling and status of that claim at the local meeting and entered into record on the Reports of Officers.

When a TV show gets turned into a movie, it often represents a big change of pace, with a standalone plot, a bigger budget, all made for a bigger (or at least more casual) audience.
"El Camino: A Breaking Bad Story" — which premiered a week ago on Netflix —doesn't take that approach at all.
Far from telling a new story or serving as jumping on-point for new viewers, "El Camino" functions more like a two-hour epilogue to the existing show. It appears to have been made exclusively for existing "Breaking Bad" fans who were wondering about what happened to Aaron Paul's character Jessie Pinkman after the series finale.
As we acknowledge in the latest episode of the Original Content podcast, Jordan is the only regular OC host who's actually seen the entirety of "Breaking Bad." And she was reasonably satisfied with the film, feeling that it had some of the same strengths as "Breaking Bad" — though it didn't quite capture the strong character development and elaborate plotting that made the series great.
Darrell, meanwhile, gets a chance to explain why he's so resistant to "Breaking Bad," and why nothing in "El Camino" changed his mind.
In addition to our review, we discuss Netflix's latest earnings, in which which the streamer reported better-than-expected profits, despite still-sluggish subscriber growth in the United States.

Serena Williams is not only a champion on the court, but she's an icon in the philanthropic world as well.
The tennis legend broke her three-year title drought on Sunday (January 12), defeating fellow American Jessica Pegula 6-3, 6-4 to win the singles final at the ASB Classic. And while that may be huge news, perhaps the biggest headline coming is how Williams is using her winnings from the match.
The 23-time major winner plans to donate her $43,000 victory check to the victims of Australian wildfires. She joins other stars of her sport, including Nick Kygrios, Ash Barty, Novak Djokovic and Maria Sharapova.
Serena Williams hadn't won a title since the Australian Open singles in January 2017. The victory was before she became a mother to her daughter Olympia, who was court-side to watch Sunday's final.
"It feels good. It's been a long time," Williams said after the match, according to USA Today. "I think you can see the relief on my face. I played an incredible opponent today in Jessica and, honestly, it was a great match and I couldn't have played anyone better in the final."
Over the past three years, Serena Williams has been juggling the enormous demands of elite-level championship tennis and her obligations of being a mother to a young daughter. It seemed though that Serena had been improving as of late, playing deep into Grand Slam tournaments, including making the finals at the U.S. Open and Wimbledon.

I bought this for my husband... and then stole it from him ;) It's the only thing that has worked on my dry hands! They're much more comfortable and smooth since I've been using it.
I got this for my boyfriend because the tips of his fingers would bleed from being so dry and cracked and he loves it. He wouldn't use normal "creamy" lotion so I'm glad this was a success!
