       $sons=$sons.$model_c->id.',';
    }
    $model->children =$sons;

}
}

it pass a null value and of course throw an exception.
exception 1 exception 2
i tried to echo the value before pass it to the function and it print the right value. i really don't understand, someone can help me?

A: The problem is you are not checking if Model::findOne() has actually returned a valid result model. It could be false / null if the record with $id doesn't exist.
The second error you are getting usually happens in following case:
$object = null;
$object->prop = 'a value';

aka whey you try to set a value of an object property which doesn't exist.
And your first error message is saying that above case is true.
app\models\Email::createNew(null, 51) <-- notice the null here

So when you are finding a model always check before using it. You can do following:
foreach ($child as $c) {
   $model_c = Question::findOne(['id'=>$c]);
   if( $model_c ) { // check the model is valid
       $email = new Email();
       $e_id=$email->createNew($model_c->reference_id,$new_id);
       $model_c->id= null;
       $model_c->provider_id = $new_id;
       $model_c->parent_id = $model->id;
       $model_c->isNewRecord = true;
       $model_c->save();
       $sons=$sons.$model_c->id.',';
   }
}

Just showed you one, do the rest. :)

Oxford Cancer Biomarkers announces ColoTox test for predicting cancer chemotherapy toxicity enters clinical studies
First patient enrolled in clinical utility study
Oxford, UK, 9th November 2016 Oxford Cancer Biomarkers Ltd (OCB), the UK-based company developing tests that allow medicines to be personalised for the benefit of the cancer patient, has today announced that the first colorectal cancer patient was enrolled in the PRECISE trial featuring the ColoTox Assay.
The PRECISE trial; 'Predicting, Recording and rEducing Chemotherapy Induced Side Effects': a pilot feasibility study of a new germline genetic test for the risk of toxicity with fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. The ColoTox assay improves the patient pathway in the treatment of colorectal cancer, by improving safety.
OCB has developed a suite of diagnostic tests for colorectal cancer (CRC) to personalise current treatment pathways and plans to develop similar tests for other cancer indications. The ColoTox test assesses the likelihood that the patient will suffer from life threatening toxicity, permitting the clinical team to make a priori dose reduction and lessen the chance of serious side effects and even chemotherapy induced death. Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the UK behind breast, lung and prostate cancer. Over 40,000 new cases are diagnosed in the UK every year and over 15,000 prove fatal.
Prof David Kerr, Chief Medical Officer of OCB, commented "This is a very exciting time for OCB and the future of personalised cancer medicine. Our ColoTox test will align a widely used cancer chemotherapy treatment with the patients who are most likely to benefit, and reduce the chance of unwanted side-effects. It will be of great importance to colorectal cancer patients".
OCB's Investors include Longwall Venture Partners, Esperante and the University.

This article describes the use of so-called properties. In the broadest sense, these are constant values that are mainly used in scripts. Such constants can be created either for a single visualization, or for the complete Box on which the visualization runs.
A good example of a visualization property would be a daily maximum value, for example the production quantity of 25 pieces. Then this value could be accessed at different places in the script. If it should change once, it only needs to be changed at a single point and not 100 places in the scripts.
A good example of a box property would be the name of the department. In this way, you could simply define a function in the script which ensures that when a visualization runs in a certain department, it behaves somewhat differently than in another department. But it is and remains the same visualization and can be created universally:"If department = 'south' then show only south numbers, otherwise show all numbers".
To set a property for a particular Box, you access the maintenance screen via the corresponding menu entry in the Manage dialog. Please note that the properties BoxID and License are system properties that should not be changed or deleted.


Pronounced "pasta cheech," this is a quick, easy, and satisfying weeknight dinner. You probably have all the ingredients on hand.
Bring water to a boil, add 1 T salt and cook pasta according to the package directions.
In the meantime, heat olive oil over medium heat and saute garlic until it just begins to take on color. Add the hot pepper flakes, herbes de Provence, parsley, salt and pepper, and cook for another two minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the chickpeas and continue cooking while the pasta cooks. Stir occasionally. Add some water from the pasta, a few tablespoons at a time, if the chickpeas look dry.
When the pasta is al dente, drain and add it to the chickpeas and mix well.
Left over pasta ceci is delicious when heated in a nonstick frying pan with a little more olive oil.

Hackers have built their own encrypted instant-message (IM) program to shield themselves from law enforcement trying to spy on their communication channels.
The application, called CarderIM, is a sophisticated tool hackers are using to sell information such as credit-card numbers or email addresses, part of an underground economy dealing in financial data, said Andrew Moloney, business director for financial services for RSA, part of EMC Corp., during a presentation at the International e-crime Congress in London on Wednesday.
CarderIM's logo is humorous: two overlapping half suns in the same red-and-yellow tones as MasterCard International Inc.'s logo. The name, CarderIM, is a reference to the practice of "carding," or converting stolen credit-card details into cash or goods.
Often, the hackers who obtain credit-card numbers aren't interested in trying to convert the data into cash. But other people are. On the Internet, the two can meet. But the data buyers and sellers are constantly on the lookout for the "rippers" -- security experts or police who are gathering data on them, Moloney said.

Dickinson is back stronger, funnier, and as meta as ever with Hailee Steinfeld reprising her role as poet Emily Dickinson. This Apple TV+ series took the world by storm (and is extremely underappreciated, for that matter) in its first season, and it returns with an even more powerful second season that takes itself a bit more seriously.
The series itself is a period piece balancing comedy and drama through a modern lens, to the backdrop of anachronistic soundtracks. There's nothing quite like a rap song dubbed over a scene depicting a 19th-century saloon party. It's not something you get used to it, but something you simply can't get enough of.
The second season presents itself in a more mature, articulate manner as Steinfeld's Dickinson grapples with the idea of publishing her poetry to the public. As actual history dictates, Dickinson's work was largely unpublished until after her death, and this series attempts to explore her untold story in the most creative way possible.
Dickinson's second season unapologetically explores Dickinson's reluctance towards fame and recognition, and the price one pays when one gives into it. Of course, this story is a difficult one to tell given there isn't much that is definitively known about Dickinson's life, so the second season was able to take what is known and really bring in a new element of storytelling.
And with a new chapter of storytelling, there are a handful of new characters introduced into this realm of Dickinson's world and life, including publisher/editor Samuel Bowles (played by Iron Fist's Finn Jones). His part in the second season really propels Dickinson's life in a variety of ways, leaving her perplexed and lost in what her next steps should be.
What particularly stands out about Dickinson season 2 is the focus on secondary characters. There is a significant shift in emphasis on characters like Lavinia (Anna Baryshinokov's) and Sue (Ella Hunt) who have a deeper narrative this time around. Fans will enjoy seeing their individual lives, and more specifically, how Sue and Emily's relationship has altered since the events of season 1.
Watching the second season really tugs at your heartstrings, especially knowing the fate of Dickinson's work, and how long it would take for the world to relish in it. But season 2 makes you feel as if you have control over her fate, and you're rooting, at times, for a different ending. It's truly a strange conundrum that makes the second season a wonderful watch.
If you loved the first season, I can guarantee you'll find the second season an equally enjoyable watch filled with more of Dickinson's poetry and a larger tie-in to real-life events of the time. There is a lot to take in during season 2 but the pace is near perfect to enjoy every moment of it!
I give Dickinson's second season a B+.

Housing advocates file lawsuit against HUD over anti-segregation rule delay
HUD halted a program seeking reports on segregation and housing discrimination.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development has been accused by advocacy groups of violating a federal law when it delayed a ruling that combats community segregation.
A lawsuit filed yesterday in a Washington, D.C., federal court by the National Fair Housing Alliance, Texas Low Income Housing Information Service and Texas Appleseed, said that Ben Carson, the Secretary for HUD, unlawfully suspended the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Act (AFFH) in January.
The AFFH requires local governments that receive federal funding to examine the housing data in their area and submit it to HUD in the hopes of addressing racial housing segregation that may exists in the community.
In the lawsuit, the organizations state that Carson violated the Administrative Procedure Act, which states that when an administrative agency wants to make changes to their regulations that they must follow specific steps, including allowing for public participation in the changes being made.
"They didn't give any kind of notice. They just announced that they would no longer require the data," Debby Goldberg, the Vice President for Housing & Special Projects for the National Fair Housing Alliance told ABC News.
"We feel like this is a really critical regulation. We waited almost 15 years for this part of the Federal Housing Act to be addressed," Goldberg said.

HUD secretary proposes rent increases for low-income Americans receiving federal housing subsidies
'Deep concern' over nixing anti-discrimination language from HUD mission statement: Dems
In 2015, cities and counties around the country that were receiving federal funding from HUD were required to assess their housing situations and come up with a plan to fight any patterns of discrimination and segregation, according to the lawsuit filed.
The agency ended these requirements in January 2018 and said it would not be asking for any analyzed data until after 2020.
HUD would not comment on the lawsuit that was filed, but provided ABC News a copy of its January statement about the Fair Housing Act.
In the statement, HUD said that public comments convinced the agency that the Fair Housing Act "wasn't working well." The agency added that, of the communities that did submit assessments, one third were not acceptable.
The two Texas organizations that are plaintiffs in the lawsuit are hoping to secure funding for areas of Houston affected by Hurricane Harvey and address the drainage system that has negatively affected minority communities who have to use open ditches to drain water.

The organizations expecting a decision on theclawsuit in the next four to eight weeks,they said.
Late last year, a federal judge blocked Carson from suspending another regulation, which intended to estimate the amount of money needed for housing vouchers by ZIP codes rather than on metropolitan areas, according to the Associated Press.
Goldberg said the judge that blocked Caron last year is also reviewing this lawsuit.
"I think this has tremendous implications," Goldberg said. "Where you live does has a huge impact on your life. Where your kids go to school. Where you can shop. Whether you use public transportation. We have these huge disparities that are so connected to race in these communities."


Campus advocacy for Israel and Jewish issues has received a big boost, with a $1-million donation to Hillel Ontario from the Gerald Schwartz and Heather Reisman Foundation.
The gift, which was announced on Feb. 4, comes after $1 million was donated to Hillel Ontario last April by the Silber Family Foundation. It allowed the campus-based group to launch a website, YouHadMeAtHillel.ca, which will assist the organization with recruitment and professional development.
The Silber gift was also intended to increase Hillel's full-time professional staff on university and college campuses. This academic year was the first in which each of the nine campuses the organization serves in Ontario had at least two full-time staff members.
The gift from the Schwartz-Reisman Foundation will be given to the organization over three years and will help it hire advocacy professionals, who will join Hillel teams throughout Ontario.
Western, Ryerson, York and McMaster universities will all benefit from the funds, in the form of staff resources, specialized professional development and training, advocacy programming, as well as a comprehensive evaluation of attitudes towards Israel and the Jewish community on campus.
"This transformative gift will empower Hillel students to confront anti-Semitism, challenge hateful BDS initiatives and foster strong relationships with university administrators, faculty members, student government and other campus leaders," said Marc Newburgh, the CEO of Hillel Ontario.
Hillel Ontario serves a combined Jewish student population of more than 13,000.
Hillel Ontario has retained Rosov Consulting to conduct a three-year study of the impact the gift from the Schwartz-Reisman Foundation has on attitudes towards Israel at the four recipient schools.
Rosov will report its findings to the community each year, to demonstrate whether the money is having a measurable and tangible impact, share best practices and continue to refine and improve Hillel's advocacy strategy, Hillel stated in a news release.

Q: Laravel IoC and singleton pattern I'm trying to use Laravel IoC by creating a singleton object. I'm following the pattern from tutorial as below. I have put a Log message into object (Foobar in this example) constructor and I can see that object is being created every time I refresh page in browser. How is the singleton pattern meant for Laravels IoC?  I understood that its shared object for entire application but its obviously being created every time its requested by App:make(...) Can someone explain please. I thought I would use the singleton pattern for maintaining shared MongoDB connection.
App::singleton('foo', function()
{
    return new FooBar;
});

A: What has been said in Laravel Doc

Sometimes, you may wish to bind something into the container that
should only be resolved once, and the same instance should be returned
on subsequent calls into the container:

This is how you can bind a singleton object and you did it right
App::singleton('foo', function()
{
    return new FooBar;
});

But, the problem is, you are thinking about the whole process of the request and response in the wrong way. You mentioned that,

I can see that object is being created every time I refresh page in
browser.

Well, this is normal behaviour of HTTP request because every time you are refreshing the page means every time you are sending a new request and every time the application is booting up and processing the request you've sent and finally, once the application sends the response in your browser, it's job is finished, nothing is kept (session, cookie are persistent and different in this case) in the server.
Now, it has been said that the same instance should be returned on subsequent calls, in this case, the subsequent calls mean that, if you call App::make(...) several times on the same request, in the single life cycle of the application then it won't make new instances every time. For example, if you call twice, something like this
App::before(function($request)
{
    App::singleton('myApp', function(){ ... });
});

In the same request, in your controller, you call at first
class HomeController {
    public function showWelcome()
    {
        App::make('myApp'); // new instance will be returned
        // ...
    }
}

And again you call it in after filter second time
App::after(function($request, $response)
{
    App::make('myApp'); // Application will check for an instance and if found, it'll  be returned
});

In this case, both calls happened in the same request and because of being a singleton, the container makes only one instance at the first call and keeps the instance to use it later and returns the same instance on subsequent calls.

A: It is meant to be used multiple times throughout the applications instance. Each time you refresh the page, it's a new instance of the application.

MAJOR. & Brandy Salute Cancer Survivors In Touching "Even More" Visual
MAJOR. opens the video for his Brandy-assisted single "Even More" by saying, "I'm so proud of you. You haven't quit. You won't quit 'cause we don't quit!" Although the track was originally shared on MAJOR.'s debut album of the same name in September 2018, the singer returns with the "Vocal Bible" to help him with this updated version.
The singers' vocals were accompanied only buy the strums of guitar and it perfectly complemented the simple, yet emotional, video was created in partnership with Susan G. Komen's #CancerAintMyName campaign. After adding Brandy to the track, "MAJOR. was then compelled to tribute the song in honor of Cancer Survivorship and the LOVE that fuels that fight to overcome," said the video's description.
"To every warrior in the struggle, please know you are NOT a burden," it continued. "The love from your village is EVEN MORE true. Cancer has many names, but it doesn't have yours. #CancerAintMyName." Watch the video and let us know what you think.
When you wrap your arms around me, it feels like home
Love, you take away my lonely, not alone
Yes you are the very best thing and even better

So, "WRC 7" has all of the cars, all of the teams and ALL of the tracks from the current rally season. I started out with the big cars before quickly realizing that they had a little too much power for a rallying rookie; in-house rally driver Jimmy had a bit more luck early on. But with the hyperrealistic brand-spanking-new Thrustmaster Ts-Xw Racer Sparco P310 wheel controller setup -- thanks guys, we love it -- I could feel every errant rock at the edge of the road, every tree stump and every freewheeling jump the Ford Junior WRC car could throw at me. Front-wheel drive: It's where the losers start. Many of Ford's operating problems were solved by adopting simpler practices, Miller said. Ford, for instance, paid workers in cash -- a cumbersome task -- because Henry Ford had seen workers going into bars to cash paychecks and didn't approve. GM prevented the German division from having a big presence in key growth countries such as China because of fears it would compete with Chevrolet and Buick models -- some of which were based on Opel engineering. It's not that there's no droning sound as the Accord accelerates, but Honda has done a good job of tamping down that irritation. Yes, we prefer the conventional 10-speed automatic that Honda uses with the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, but Honda's implementation of a CVT is among the best. After he was named vice president for finance in January 1961, Miller once complained about the cost of operating Ford's executive dining room, where senior management paid $2 each for lunch. As with most modern BMW models, drivers will be able to select between Comfort, Eco Pro and Sport driving modes, which adjust the gearbox, engine and steering settings. Optional dynamic dampers can also be specified and can be placed in either Comfort or Sport modes. This also lowers the car's ride height slightly. However, after years of passing between owners, restoration and spending time on both the circuit and carpet, 1451 GT is once again for sale. Will it be bought for historical racing, road use, or as an investment? Who knows, but what we do know is it is one incredibly good-looking car. Elon Musk's recent trip to Turkey and meeting with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan included discussions about the country's national car project, which generated a few headlines two years ago after Turkey purchased the license to the Saab 9-3 from National Electric Vehicle Sweden. Miller often resisted the temptation to label himself and his fellow Whiz Kids as just zealous bean counters at a pivotal period in Ford history. "If any car deserves to be in a museum, it's this one," Blackwell says, "for the miles it's gone and the things it's done for me."


So you dipped a customer's credit card, and it was declined. Ugh. In addition to a flustered and potentially indignant customer, you now have to figure out what to do. Should you try to override the decline? Ask the customer to call their bank? Panic? With this handy guide, you certainly won't have to do that last one. Here's our cheat sheet to the decline codes your machine might produce and what to do about them.
If you see any of these decline codes appear, something is wrong with the customer's account and the transaction is being blocked by the cardholder's issuing bank. Instruct the customer to step to the side and call the bank to determine the issue. Once the bank has resolved the problem, the customer can again present the card for payment and the transaction should proceed without issue. If the customer can't or doesn't want to call their bank, they will need to provide an alternative method of payment to complete the transaction.
These are classic fraud alerts. Fraudulent activity has already been detected with the customer's account, the customer has reported the card as lost or stolen, or the CVV2/CID code is incorrect. If you know and trust the customer, ask them to provide an alternative method of payment so you can complete the transaction, then encourage them to call their bank to figure out what's going on. If you've never seen the customer before, don't complete the purchase. Assume it's fraudulent. If you see a CV code, there is a chance it could be your account configuration that's causing the problem. Call your credit card processor just to be sure.
An decline code 12 means that the type of transaction you are trying to make is invalid or not supported. This frequently occurs when attempting to refund a credit card payment. Double check the payment type and payment information to make sure it's all correct. When you're satisfied, try the transaction again. It should process without issue.
These decline codes mean that there is some sort of mistake with the card number or transaction details. This is usually the result of a typo. Check to make sure the credit card number is correct (codes 14 and 15) and that the transaction amount is not negative and contains no errant numbers or symbols (code 13), then try the transaction again.
A temporary or unknown problem occurred while authorizing the transaction. Try the transaction again. If repeated attempts still fail, contact your credit card processor for troubleshooting steps.
The customer has exceeded their credit limit (code 51 or 65) or the card is expired (code 54). The customer should contact their issuing bank to request an increase in their credit limit or request the new expiration date. If they cannot provide this information, they will need to provide an alternative method of payment to complete the transaction. Be alert – if this is a first-time customer it's possible the transaction is fraudulent.
Your account is not set up to process the type of transaction you are attempting. Perhaps, for instance, you are trying to process an international card for which your terminal is not configured. Contact your payment processor to have your account updated. The customer may need to present an alternative method of payment in the meantime. If you see decline code 62, it is possible that the issue is actually with the customer's card. While you call your credit card processor, have them call their bank to ensure that their card is set up to process the type of transaction you're attempting.
These decline codes appear when a customer has instructed their card issuer to not process any further installments of a recurring transaction. To protect yourself from chargebacks, stop attempting to process right away and contact the customer to figure out how they want to move forward. To use the original card, they will need to contact their issuer to restart recurring payments. They can also, of course, provide you with a different card.
You may notice that a lot of these courses of action suggest that you call your credit card processing provider. This is by design – your payments processor should be able to provide you with the education and tools needed to handle transaction decline codes quickly and confidently. If they can't or won't, it's time to start shopping around. Give 360 Payments a try – you can always reach us by phone at 1-855-360-0360 or drop us a line on our website.
PS – You should never lease a credit card machine. Here's why.
PPS – Is it time to fire that toxic customer? Here's how to tell.
Is there a printable version of the decline codes?
Great question, Brenda! We don't have a printable guide created at this time, but we suggest bookmarking this page so you can quickly return to it should a decline code pop up on your machine.

The Truth About This Man's Fight For Survival Will Break Your Heart
"In February 2018, after his liver completely stopped functioning, he was completely disoriented. He was so critical that he suffered from temporary memory loss. He didn't know who we were or where he was. He was completely out of control and he'd even become violent and hurt others unknowingly. With my mother crying endlessly, the rest of us were terribly scared and we thought we might lose him." – Rajeshwari, Raosaheb's 22-year-old daughter
58-year-old Raosaheb's liver has been completely damaged for over a year and this has even caused severe loss of brain function along with a lot of pain. He needed a liver transplant way back in 2017. He has miraculously survived for so long but he doesn't have much time left. His 22-year-old daughter, Rajeshwari, is ready to donate a part of her liver, but being the sole breadwinner of his family, Raosaheb just doesn't have any money left.
When he fell unconscious, the doctors asked the family to prepare themselves
In August 2018, Raosaheb was critical and along with his family, he came to Mumbai from the faraway district of Parbhani. As soon as he got to the hospital, he just fell unconscious. Right now, after all these months, he's so weak that he can't even speak properly or audibly.
"Back in August, the doctor said that anything could happen in the next 2 days. My mother had broken down and couldn't see my father fight for his life on the ventilator in the ICU. There was so much water in lungs that he couldn't breathe. For the second time, we thought we might lose him anytime. It's such a hard time for us." – Rajeshwari
It is a miracle that he survived these past 5 years
It all started in 2014 when Raosaheb's hands and feet would swell up and he'd be struck with waves of fever. It just happened so suddenly that he was left with no energy to do anything.
"He had become so weak that he couldn't even move his legs. He'd just be tired all the time and wouldn't want to eat." – Rajeshwari
Raosaheb would travel alone 200 km every 2 weeks for treatment
After a local doctor told Raosaheb that there were excess fluids in his stomach, he had to go for treatment every 2 weeks to a hospital in Aurangabad which is 200 kilometres away since there were no hospitals in Parbhani.
"He did this for over 2 years. By the end of 2017, there was water filling up in his lungs too. He'd go alone to Aurangabad despite of his sufferings. That's when the doctor first said that his liver had been completely damaged and he needed an urgent transplant." – Rajeshwari
He is racing against time to receive a transplant
58-year-old Raosaheb has 4 children: Krishna (12), Dhanashree (17), Radhika (20) and Rajeshwari (22). He was the only earner of his family and his wife, Rekha, is a homemaker. All his children go to school and no one works. From the pain and weakness of his failing liver, Raosaheb quit his job in a private company in 2018, where he'd earn up to Rs. 20,000 every month.
"Our home rent is around Rs. 8000. Every 2 weeks, he spent Rs. 15000 to get fluid removed from his stomach. Traveling so far away was a challenge. There were many times he needed someone to hold him because he couldn't walk and we had to take a car which would cost us Rs. 5000 for 200 km. I just don't know how we're going to pay for this transplant. We've borrowed from everyone we could. He is so frustrated because he doesn't want to be a burden and recently for the first time, I saw him crying about it." – Rajeshwari
Raosaheb and his family need urgent help
Raosaheb has been suffering in silence for 5 years. Back in August 2018, his ICU bill was over Rs. 5 lakhs. Over the past few years, they have spent Rs. 25 lakhs on his treatment. His brothers have sold their farm to help him. Now, he's hanging on to life by a thread and his family needs Rs. 20 lakhs for an inevitable and urgent liver transplant.
He has been constantly going back and forth from Mumbai but just around a month ago, he was so critical that he had to be admitted to the hospital. They can't afford to live in Mumbai for long and may be forced to take him home.
22-year-old brave Rajeshwari has been matched as a donor and is ready to save her father's life. But she can't do it without your help.
The specifics of this case have been verified by the medical team at the concerned hospital. For any clarification on the treatment or associated costs, contact the campaign organizer or the medical team.

My talented friend, Darren Scanlon of The Pen and the Page, has nominated me for the Sunshine Blogger Award.
It's been such a pleasure reading your poetry and having you as a part of our Blog Battles. I'm also so glad you're recovering after your bout of pneumonia. I'm sure it will take some time, but we're all glad you're back at it and getting stronger every day!
1. Name the best place you have ever visited and why?
I can't say Alaska because I didn't just visit. I lived there for seven years. There's a rugged beauty about it that I can't quite describe. You'll have to see it for yourself. There is your invitation. Get to it. Otherwise I've visited very few places and none do I love so well as home.
2. When commenting on others' blogs etc., do you tell the truth?
Yes. I feel like I should write more, but there's not much else to answer or explain. 🙂 It's important to always tell the truth. That doesn't mean one must lambaste or disrespect another, though! Most of the time I have only positive and encouraging things to say to other bloggers.
I started blogging just over a year ago as a means of communicating about my writing, book related milestones, and poetry as well as getting to know more people, and having a central place for people to find me!
4. How long each day would you say you spend on blogging/emails/social media?
Too much time! It's not that I don't love communicating with people, but it eats into all my writing time. I'm a wife and mom to four, so my time is already spread thin on most occasions. I probably spend (throughout the day) about 2-5 hours depending on the day, sometimes more.
5 . Name your favourite music artist / group?
This is gonna sound bad, but I don't think I have one in particular. I listen to a variety of music, preferring things I don't have to explain to my children or switch quickly when the language or content is too inappropriate for words. I enjoy most of what I hear, but I don't have a favorite. If you asked about styles of music, my enjoyment is also incredibly eclectic. Any suggestions anyone?
If you had to choose between spaghetti and blood pudding to eat, which would be your choice?
You can take only two items with you to the beach, what are they?

GameBender Console Helps Kids Learn To Code Through Video Games
by Andrew Smith
in Game News
The company behind Makey Makey has created a game console by the name of GameBender, a system that allows its users to learn how to code through video games.
The creators of GameBender, Jay Silver and Eric Rosenbaum, began their journey by creating the Makey Makey while at MIT under the direction of Mitch Resnick. Their first invention, the Makey Makey, allowed users to connect everyday objects to their computer and use them as peripherals, giving rise to many videos on Youtube showcasing the using of bananas to control characters inside video games. Through the immense success of their first invention, Silver and Rosenbaum set out to create a platform whereby users could enter any game's code and modify it, effectively editing the game itself as it was being played.
While there have been programs made in the past which used video games to teach kids, what GameBender is doing now is unlike anything else. Based upon what has been showcased through videos, the graphics aren't that bad, and the system appears to run flawlessly, opening the door for future game designers to assist the creators in developing even more complex games for the platform.
RELATED: With Competition Rising, GOG Announces An App To Modernize Its Gaming Platform
Via Tom's Hardware, we've learned that the console has already garnered funding from the National Science Foundation and that its software is created by Scratch, a platform which allows its 40 million-plus users to share their coded games and apps. The console itself will come with a controller, allowing its users to access the code of any game and a camera which is designed, when coupled with 3D glasses, to give consumers a firsthand look at how augmented reality works. Additionally, the console will come with fifty flash cards which detail how users can go about editing the game's code. Currently, consumers can pre-order the console for $299, but Silver expects that price to jump to $399 by launch.
It's unclear at this point in time if GameBender will be able to have access to games created through Scratch, but if the console is able to do just that it will give other game companies a run for their money. Given that new technology has caused a steep rise in the need for coders, this new system could prove useful in creating a workforce that is ready for the tasks that they will face in the future. While it has hurdles to overcome, this new console could also put pressure on other console manufacturers to provide a similar option and may even lead to a new and improved system.
While it is certainly a very good idea, the pricetag may deter many consumers from buying the console from the onset. GameBender will need to ensure that enough games are present on the system at launch to garner interest from the public.

YouTube Gaming is less than a day old and it's already pissed everyone off.
We already suggested copyright would be a sticking point in our post announcing YouTube's long-awaited gaming platform, and it seems our prediction has come true. Users have already started taking to Twitter to complain about the YouTube's Content ID system unfairly terminating their live-streams.
"Had 2 content ID's on In game music from my Gears stream on Youtube. No monetisation and blocked in certain countries," JackFrags, a professional gamer with over 1.2 million subscribers on YouTube and 120k followers on Twitch, tweeted after his live stream was cut off.
Content ID is YouTube's automated copyright enforcement system that scans all content uploaded (or streamed) to YouTube for any copyrighted music, movies, tv shows, and other content.
If YouTube's Content ID system flags a live-stream, it will initially give the streamer a warning and mute the stream's audio. If it continues to detect copyrighted content after 10 minutes it will terminate the stream before, sometimes, giving the streamer a copyright strike on their account, which will adversely affect how they can use YouTube in the future. And that's exactly what happened to JackFrags.
Why is gaming music being flagged on a gaming platform that wants creators to make content for it. It should be a separate database surely?
After being threatened with numerous copyright lawsuits collectively worth almost a trillion dollars, YouTube invested tens of millions into the development of their Content ID system, which attempts to match content uploaded to YouTube with content owned by large corporations so they can control whether (and how) their content is distributed on YouTube.
Contrary to popular belief the system actually works fairly well, and after years of tweaking (and pain) it now has an error rate of less than 1%. However, many games contain music and sound effects that some copyright holders are restricting through YouTube's Content ID system. Creators that upload gaming videos can get around this with creative editing or by appealing the Content ID match, but live streamers have no such option.

>> Read More: What's With All These YouTube Content ID Claims?
Please understand that a Content ID claim may interrupt your live broadcast even if you licensed the third-party content in question, or even if you restricted your broadcast to a territory in which you own all the necessary rights.
However, YouTube isn't the only service with automated copyright scanning.
Twitch also scans content for copyrighted material and will mute the audio on archived recordings of streams if they find that it contains copyrighted content. However, they also adopted the common sense approach of excluding live content from that system. That fact alone makes Twitch a much more comfortable place for streamers than YouTube, where they could be hit by a claim by any number of the thousands of Content ID partners at any moment during their stream.
If it's any consolation for gamers, many large publishers including Valve and Blizzard, have committed to leaving all of their content out of Content ID; which should make popular games like League of Legends and Hearthstone fair game of YouTube Gaming. But games like GTA5, which a radio full of copyrighted songs, and Metal Gear Solid 5, with a publisher (Konami) that's desperate to grab revenue wherever they can, would likely have to stay off-limits.


• The shrinking size of electronic parts, particularly in mobile phones, requires higher accuracy and precision in molds.
• A competitive market means a need to reduce development time.
Omron Micro develops and manufactures electronic parts and devices, with a focus on digital home electronics, mobile terminals, and office and automation equipment. As these are all fields in which devices are shrinking as rapidly as time-to-market pressures are growing, Omron recognized that to maintain its market position, it needed to upgrade its mold machining capabilities.
Omron's micro machining center had been utilizing a CAD/CAM system for designing and making molds, but some time ago it became clear that it was no longer adequate.
Omron compared numerous CAD/CAM systems, carefully benchmarking the contenders. In the end, only Cimatron made the cut.
The combination of speed and quality enabled by Cimatron's advanced algorithm helped bring the solution to first place on Omron's list. Mr Tanabe notes that numerous Cimatron functions impressed him, including its optimization function for recognition of stock, the constant control of cutter load, the rounding motion for sharp corners, and the holder gauge check.
Since Omron began using Cimatron, it has dramatically improved path quality, reducing the number of times paths need to be corrected, and hence reducing man-hours needed to make each mold.

WFP supports the tajik government in preparing for earthquakes and other disasters
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) held a ceremony in Dushanbe this week to mark the handover of IT equipment to the Tajik Committee of Emergency Situations and Civil Defence (CoES) to strengthen the country's emergency preparedness capacity.
The equipment includes brand-new GPS navigators, cameras, laptops, tablets and printers. These will be used by Tajikistan's Information Management and Analytical Centre (IMAC) of Sughd Region to conduct risk assessments, collect, analyse and disseminate data on disasters.
"As Tajikistan is prone to disasters that affect the most vulnerable the most, technology can help the country in preparing for them and minimising the risk," said WFP Representative and Country Director in Tajikistan Alberto Correia Mendes. "The equipment will strengthen IMAC's capacity to monitor disasters and help the CoES to respond to them effectively and in a timely manner."
In addition to its school feeding, nutrition and resilience capacity building programmes in Tajikistan, WFP works to develop the capacity of the government and stakeholders in disaster risk reduction as well as emergency preparedness and response in the country.
Over the past four years, WFP has provided technical assistance, equipment, and extensive trainings to CoES staff at the local and regional levels through awareness campaigns to build disaster-resilient communities and promoting the work of CoES among the population.
During the handover ceremony Chairman of CoES Rustam Nazarzoda thanked WFP for its support and expressed his wish to expand the partnership on emergency preparedness and response activities in the country.

Amphotericin B liposomal injection is used to treat fungal infections such as cryptococcal meningitis (a fungal infection of the lining of the spinal cord and brain) and visceral leishmaniasis (a parasitic disease that usually affects spleen, liver, and bone marrow) in certain people. It is also used to treat certain fungal infections in people who cannot receive conventional amphotericin B therapy. Amphotericin B liposomal injection is in a class of medications called antifungals. It works by slowing the growth of fungi that cause infection.
Amphotericin B liposomal injection comes as a suspension (liquid) to be injected intravenously (into a vein). It is usually infused intravenously once daily, or for the treatment of leishmaniasis on specific days, over a period of 2 hours. If previous doses are tolerated, this medication may be given over a period of 1 hour. The length of your treatment depends on your general health, how you tolerate the medication, and the type of infection you have.
You may experience a reaction while you receive a dose of amphotericin B liposomal complex injection. These reactions usually happen 1 to 3 hours after starting your infusion and are more severe with the first few doses. Your health care provider may prescribe other medications to decrease these side effects. Tell your doctor immediately if you experience any of these symptoms while you receive amphotericin B liposomal complex injection: fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, flushing, back pain with or without chest tightness, chest pain, shortness of breath, breathing problems, or a fast, irregular, or pounding heartbeat.
You may receive amphotericin B liposomal injection in a hospital or you may use the medication at home. If you will be using amphotericin B liposomal injection at home, your healthcare provider will show you how to infuse the medication. Be sure that you understand these directions, and ask your healthcare provider if you have any questions. Ask your healthcare provider what to do if you have any problems infusing amphotericin B liposomal injection.
If your symptoms do not improve or get worse while receiving amphotericin B liposomal injection, tell your doctor. If you still have symptoms of infection after you finish amphotericin B liposomal injection, tell your doctor.
tell your doctor and pharmacist if you are allergic to amphotericin B, any other medications, or any of the ingredients in amphotericin B liposomal injection. Ask your pharmacist for a list of the ingredients.
tell your doctor and pharmacist what other prescription and nonprescription medications, vitamins, nutritional supplements, and herbal products you are taking or plan to take. Be sure to mention any of the following: aminoglycoside antibiotics such as amikacin, gentamicin, or tobramycin (Bethkis, Kitabis Pak, Tobi); antifungals such as clotrimazole, fluconazole (Diflucan), itraconazole (Onmel, Sporanox), ketoconazole (Extina, Nizoral, Xolegel), and miconazole (Oravig, Monistat); medications for the treatment of cancer; corticotropin (H.P. Acthar Gel); cyclosporine (Gengraf, Neoral, Sandimmune); digoxin (Lanoxin); flucytosine (Ancobon); and steroids taken orally such as dexamethasone, methylprednisolone (Medrol), and prednisone (Rayos). Your doctor may need to change the doses of your medications or monitor you carefully for side effects.
tell your doctor if you are receiving leukocyte (white blood cell) transfusions.
tell your doctor if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding. If you become pregnant while receiving amphotericin B liposomal injection, call your doctor. Do not breast-feed while receiving amphotericin B liposomal injection.
if you are having surgery, including dental surgery, tell the doctor or dentist that you are receiving amphotericin B liposomal injection.
Amphotericin B liposomal injection may cause other side effects. Call your doctor if you have any unusual problems while receiving this medication.
Keep all appointments with your doctor and the laboratory. Your doctor will order certain lab tests during your treatment to check your body's response to amphotericin B liposomal injection.
Before having any laboratory test, tell your doctor and the laboratory personnel that you are receiving amphotericin B liposomal injection.

Home/Entertainment/HBO Max | The soprano family and nostalgia for the mafia genre in cinema and television
HBO Max | The soprano family and nostalgia for the mafia genre in cinema and television
dwadminJuly 15, 2021
In fiction, criminals and nostalgia traditionally go hand in hand
In the pilot episode of the Sopranos series (Soprano Family), available in the HBO Max catalog, a situation is established in which the protagonist, Tony Soprano, consults a psychiatrist after having passed out. During the consultation, the doctor asks the necessary questions of a personal nature (albeit reluctantly due to his client's connection to organized crime) to find the root of so much anxiety that plagues Tony.
At one point, he lets out a sense of nostalgia for the simpler times, where there was a sense of respect between members of the Mafia and society itself in general seemed more stable. If, for the series, it presents an important element on a character that the spectator does not yet know, apart from that its representation goes directly through a characteristic of Mafia films.
This genre is quite old, with the first copy dated 1906 entitled Black Hand, although this position has long been occupied by Les Mousquetaires de l'Allée des Cochons. However, it was not until the 1930s that this type of production took on real importance and even domination on the film market. It was the period of the Great Depression, added to the previous years of the inflexible dry law, that sparked the image of the gangster in the popular imagination; real figures who operated outside the law, well dressed and even heroic in the face of death.
Tony lets go of the desire for a supposedly simpler past.
1932 Scarface is a good example; inexperienced gangster Tony Camonte, a member of the Italian immigrant community, begins to climb the ladder of power until he comes to a conclusion that places him in a violent struggle against the police (traditionally, as a force of oppression of these communities). Unsurprisingly, the film was heavily censored upon release, although director Howard Hawks' goal wasn't to glorify the violent crowd lifestyle.
In the article Melodramas of Ethnicity and Masculinity: Generic Transformations of Late Twentieth Century American Film Gangsters, by Larissa Ennis, presents a point of view on this generation of mafia films. "The Ban Gangster was the first truly popular gangster cycle, and thanks to Little Caesar (1930) and The Public Enemy (1931), Warner Bros. has become a leading studio of violent urban reality… The Ban-Age gangsters were criminals who defied the moral status quo by mocking the laws of interdiction and police control in order to achieve material success.
At the end of the 1930s, the clash between the gangster genre and the film regulators, mainly the Production Code Administration which responded to the Motion Production Picture Code, will weaken this segment much to the point that productions of this type are made. rarer and the characters who followed the archetype of the gangster would be "transported" to works of the genre Noir mainly.
The original "Scarface" is an example of the past still referenced in this genre.
Then came 1972 and Francis Ford Coppola released the first Godfather, a critical and public success and the biggest box office of the year. More than anything, the adaptation of Mario Puzo's book broadened the horizons of the Mafia cinematic model, focusing not only on the violent nature of street wars but also on the cultural significance that these individuals, as immigrants or descendants of Italian immigrants, brought from his homeland.
Two years later came the sequel, considered by many to be superior to the original, with two timelines unfolding simultaneously: the present with Michael dealing with the burden of leadership and very focused on the 1950s United States, especially in this which concerns money and politics. . The other tale follows young Vito Corleone fleeing Italy and establishing his life in North America, the latter much more concerned with showing how Italian cultural strength guided the customs of this newly arrived community in a foreign land.
Inevitably, the popular imagination of gangster films had now come back to life, with an impression linked no longer to the material excesses and violence presented in the films of the first half of the 20th century, but to the intensely cultural mobster presented in The Godfather. .
The Corleone family saga was a turning point in the genre.
Another point Coppola later raised is that she subtly presents a certain appeal to nostalgia for a simpler America, something noticeable when put side by side with Michael's complex situation in the present with Vito's rise to the past, where friends and foes are said to be easy to spot.
Author John G. Cawaleti, in 1975, drew attention to the metamorphosis presented in The Godfather for Mafia Cinema in his book La Nouvelle Mythologie du Crime. "The new crime mythology is preceded by Puzo using the word 'family' to symbolize the criminal organization. It also has the concept of father, mother and children included. Even when it is necessary to commit a crime, the objective is the protection of the family. Therefore, the romanticization of crime, which follows the folkloric figure of Robin Hood, has taken a new path in viewing crime as positive. "
Ten years later and a new production would definitely show the link between the gangster genre and nostalgia. Director Sergio Leone had already built a career in Hollywood in 1984 as a master of the western in historic partnerships with Clint Eastwood. His most successful films were those that were part of the dollar trilogy: For a Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and Three Men in Conflict.
For decades Leone tried to put into practice the dream of adapting the book The Hoods, written by ex-mobster Harry Goldberg under the pseudonym Harry Gray, released in 1953, and biographical on part of his life in the Mafia. After convincing the author, Leone began pre-production of Once Upon A Time in America with Robert De Niro in the lead role. In general terms, the film follows the gangster Noodles through youth and adulthood, showing how he entered the criminal world and, most importantly, suffered the consequences of that choice.
Leone's Epic is the definitive statement about nostalgia for mafia movies.
However, more than that, the friendships Noodles forge with other prospectless young people in early 20th-century New York City are what impact him the most when he reaches old age. The character is constantly shown mulling over the past, exposing the longing felt by dead friends or even inevitable changes in his old neighborhood.
It is through the narrative back and forth between past and present that Leone exposes the nostalgia felt and desired by the protagonist, without resorting to verbal declarations. This feeling moves the character forward in the current timeline and creates the necessary clues for sequences from the past, which serve precisely to reinforce that feeling in the present.
No wonder, this once perfect idea of the mafia becomes, in the following years, a recurring element. The Good Companions of 1990, considered the great representative of the genre in this decade, uses the protagonist's nostalgia as an element of development, from the moment he joins the Mafia until the consequences.
Finally, by the time Sopranos debuted in 1999, the gangster genre was already quite different from what it once was. Not only did the mafia style have to be adapted to a reality in which technology was more present in everyday life, but this advancement automatically generates a nostalgic longing for a bygone time (the same as in movies like Scarface and Little Caesar). Nostalgia then becomes an unexpected and present element in the criminal life of cinema.

There are three things I live by when traveling: water, exercise and fiber. The combination of these three have helped me stay regular (and enjoy more my vacation) while breaking away from my routine.
Why water? Flying can really dehydrate your body, and dehydration often leads to constipation. Also, who doesn't want a drink, or two, during a getaway? Alcohol leads to dehydration, which, once again, can lead to constipation. Drinking plenty of water throughout the trip can help keep you stay hydrated and make passing stools much easier.
Why exercise? It may seem totally unacceptable to workout while on vacation. However, moving your body either by walking, running, swimming, biking (or any other form of physical activity) can keep your digestive system moving. If going to the gym goes against your ethics (trust me, I know a lot of people who believe exercising on vacation is a crime), try doing something that involves sightseeing to keep it fun and interesting. Visiting Paris? Take a stroll through Champs-Élysées while doing some shopping. Going to San Francisco? Head up to Muir Woods for some hiking. Every place has its charm, might as well explore!
Why fiber? It is generally known that fiber helps us maintain bowel health. Eating foods high in fiber – like beans, nuts, strawberries, and broccoli – can help with digestion and *bonus points* they help you stay full. I don't know about you but when I'm on vacation there is no such thing as a balanced diet. Pastries? Decadent chocolates? Mofongo? You name it. I always pack a fiber supplement just to make sure I meet my daily fiber requirements. While this occupies some space in my bag (not to mention I am not a light packer) it has been an effective resource when traveling.
Next time you go on an adventure, make sure you have the right tools to help you stay healthy and feel better. Plan ahead, pack smart, and keep your body hydrated and moving!

Julius Paul Emigrates (I)
The early years of marriage for Julius and Brunis Paul were marked by separation. The couple wed in January 1891. Their first child, Helen, was born in December 1891. And when little Helen was just three months old, Julius left his new family behind for America. They wouldn't be reunited for three years.
Prior to the 1860s there was barely any emigration to speak of from Imperial Russia. Seasonal workers began leaving western parts of the Empire (especially Poland) for Prussia/Germany in that decade. Trickles of emigrants to North America turned into swells by the 1880s and a flood by the turn of the twentieth century. We don't know exactly what motivated Julius to emigrate, but economic opportunity is the most likely reason. Perhaps ironically, very few Russians left the Russian Empire. Instead emigration was mostly made up of Jews, Poles, Balts and Germans. When Julius left in 1892, he was catching a wave of ethnic minorities turning their back on the tsarist empire and facing a new future in the west.
In the nineteenth century it was relatively easy for migrants from the Russian Empire to get in to burgeoning industrializing countries like Germany, Canada, and the United States. The hard part was getting out of Russia. The tsars had exercised an "attract and hold" population policy since the 1600s. In order to retain property-holders as well as a valuable labor force and tax base, any subject looking to leave the country – even for a short time – was legally required to secure a foreign passport (zagranpasport) and produce it to tsarist officials when crossing the border. Securing such a document not only demanded hefty fees at this time. It also required running a gauntlet of bureaucrats and paperwork that could take three months to complete (in comparison, Italian emigrants could get their passports in twenty-four hours). For poor laborers, these barriers made legal emigration more or less prohibitive. No wonder that around the time Julius left Poland, 50-90% of all emigrants from the Russian Empire departed the country illegally. We don't know whether Julius ever got his passport, but considering his status as an orphan and a day-laborer, chances are he went with the majority and defied the law.
Between the Congress of Vienna (1815) and the beginning of First World War (1914), the border with Germany lay only ten miles from Julius's and Brunis's home in the village of Miłaczew. Whether crossing at an official border post by day or sneaking over the border by night, it is almost certain that Julius made his way for the German town of Stralkowo (Pol.: Strzałkowo) about fifteen miles away. There sat the nearest rail station, built in 1888 with a connecting line to Posen (Pol.: Poznań) and the world beyond.
