Ruby wrapper for libcmark-gfm, GitHub's fork of the reference parser for CommonMark. It passes all of the C tests, and is therefore spec-complete. It also includes extensions to the CommonMark spec as documented in the GitHub Flavored Markdown spec, such as support for tables, strikethroughs, and autolinking.
For more information on available extensions, see the documentation below.
The second argument is optional–see below for more information.
walk will iterate on a node and recursively iterate on a node's children.
each will iterate on a node and its children, but no further.
CommonMarker accepts the same options that CMark does, as symbols. Note that there is a distinction in CMark for "parse" options and "render" options, which are represented in the tables below.
:DEFAULT The default parsing system.
:LIBERAL_HTML_TAG Support liberal parsing of inline HTML tags.
:SMART Use smart punctuation (curly quotes, etc.).
:VALIDATE_UTF8 Replace illegal sequences with the replacement character U+FFFD.
:DEFAULT The default rendering system.
:GITHUB_PRE_LANG Use GitHub-style <pre lang> for fenced code blocks.
:HARDBREAKS Treat \n as hardbreaks (by adding <br/>).
:NOBREAKS Translate \n in the source to a single whitespace.
:SAFE Suppress raw HTML and unsafe links.
:SOURCEPOS Include source position in rendered HTML.
For more information on these options, see the CMark documentation.
Both render_html and render_doc take an optional third argument defining the extensions you want enabled as your CommonMark document is being processed. The documentation for these extensions are defined in this spec, and the rationale is provided in this blog post.
:table - This provides support for tables.
:strikethrough - This provides support for strikethroughs.
:autolink - This provides support for automatically converting URLs to anchor tags.
:tagfilter - This strips out several "unsafe" HTML tags from being used.
If there were no errors, you're done! Otherwise, make sure to follow the CMark dependency instructions.

Networking is a 2-Way Street!
Question: What is one of the most common mistakes job seekers who are new to networking make?
Answer: Not recognizing that networking is a give-and-take practice, i.e.., a 2-way street!
Setting up 1-to-1 networking meetings to talk with people about your job search a smart thing to do!
Talking with people in your network in order to seek information and advice is a time-tested technique for finding a new position or enhancing the one you've got! Why?
Because as folks in your network of contacts learn about you, and the needs you can fill in an organization, they begin to think of you in that context. When they hear of an opening, or a potential one, in their own organization or in the company of a friend or colleague, they think of you and refer you. That's a triple win - for you the job seeker, your contact, and the hiring organization.
A 1-to-1 networking meeting, over a cup of coffee in a comfortable spot, allows you to tell your network contact about the good things you can offer a hiring firm, as well as to learn from your contact what they know about organizations in which you could be an asset. In fact, It is one of the best, if not THE best, way to access the hidden employment market, where well over 80% of the best jobs are found.
Successful Networkers Give & Take!
As you reach out to network contacts, you'll find that most people want to help. They'll provide information,invite you to stay in touch, and even meet with you a time or two. But recognize that depending on your response and subsequent actions your relationship could be short-lived or grow and extend over a career if not a lifetime. Some even evolve into genuine friendships and business relationships.
Thank the contact who is helping you in a meaningful follow-up Thank You note. In other words, put some thought into it!
Keep in touch. Keep your contact updated on your progress with some e-mails, a phone call or two, even another networking meeting.
Look for ways you can be helpful to them. While buying lunch right now is not in the cards, you can be helpful in less costly ways.
You can forward information on topics you learned in talking is important to them.
You can introduce or refer them to someone in your own network who would be a good contact for them.
Offer to serve on a volunteer committee they are chairing.
Invite them to attend a professional association meeting where the topic is of interest.
Or, offer your ideas for a work problem or new project they have, etc. . . . . . You get the idea.
And, a closing "goes-without-saying" thought: When inviting contacts for a networking meeting over a coffee, please offer to buy the coffee!
Networking is a 2-way street.
Setting up 1-to-1 networking meetings as an integral part of your job search is a smart and effective practice. As you take information and support from your contact, and give back in kind, you'll find yourself moving closer to achieving your goal. There just could be a job in it for you! . . . . . It's a Smart Strategy!

CSUN men's volleyball: Familiar foe, BYU, stands in the way

After a hard fought MPSF Tournament quarterfinal win over No. 6 seed USC last Saturday at the Matadome, the third-seeded Matadors are in Palo Alto, Calif. tonight for a 5 p.m. semifinal match against second seed BYU.
Both teams are familiar with each other having just split a pair of matches the final weekend of the regular season. After finishing the season with identical records (22-8 14-7 MPSF) the Cougars were able to earn the second seed in the playoffs thanks to winning two more sets in the two matches.
"We just played them so we know what to expect from them," senior middle blocker Kevin McKniff said. "Like what they are going to do, what their shots are, so they are fresh in our minds and we will be ready for them."
The Matadors and Cougars are no strangers to each other in the MPSF Tournament having eliminated each other the past two seasons. BYU bounced CSUN in the 2008 MPSF semifinals with a 3-0 win at the Walter Pyramid; the following year Northridge was able to avenge the loss with a 3-1 MPSF quarterfinal victory at the Matadome.
"Now that we are playing them for the fifth time (in one calendar year), we have seen what they are going to do and I'm excited now because I finally get to play against them," senior outside hitter Theo Edwards said, who was relegated to watching the last two matches against BYU due to injury.
Since meeting last year in the MPSF quarterfinals the teams have met three more times, the first coming in the championship match of the preseason Santa Barbara Tournament and the last two at the end of the season.
"To tell you the truth it doesn't mean anything going into this match except for maybe bragging rights," Mckniff said of defeating the Cougars in three out the last four matches.
The Cougars defeated UCLA last weekend to advance and face the Matadors. Leading the way for BYU in the win over the Bruins was sophomore Robb Stowell with 18 kills, while All-Conference selection Andrew Stewart chipped in with 16 kills.
"They are a great team, fundamentally sound and a good blocking team," redshirt freshman John Baker said. "All the way around they are a phenomenal team… I feel like we have a phenomenal team as well. So we will need to exploit a gap or seam in their blocking… stay fundamentally sound and we will be able to pull out the win."
BYU is the best blocking team in the conference at 3.78 blocks per set and the best defensive team, holding opponents to a .250 hitting clip. The middle block tandem of Futi Tavana and Russell Lavaja were the top blockers in the MPSF with 1.78 and 1.55 blocks per game respectively.
"Their middles are very good, very aggressive and they are a pretty good passing team," Edwards said. "For us, we have to serve well and if we don't then they will be able to get into their system and set those middles and those middles can cause some problems for us."
The Matadors will counter with their middles, Jacek Ratajczak and McKniff who's great play this season was recognized last week by being named to the MPSF All-Conference First Team. It is the first time in the school's history that two teammates were named first team selections.
With No. 1 Stanford defeating eight-seeded UC Irvine on Saturday, and being the highest seeded team in the playoffs the Cardinal are the host for tonight's semifinal matches and Saturday's championship game.
Up first tonight at Maples Pavilion is the match-up between CSUN and BYU, followed by Stanford-Hawaii, which starts a half an hour after the first semifinal ends.

I don't know how I, one of the least pickiest eaters, has a child who doesn't like anything. I might say that this is the most frustrating part of parenting to date. Each meal is a struggle, one week she likes something, the next she doesn't. I know this is probably pretty normal but my gawd it's driving me mad. I am about to let her eat dry cereal and taquitos three meals a day.
Meanwhile, Aves is still a pretty good eater and I hope it lasts.
The girls just love music. Averi gets into a semi trance while watching any sort of singing and Kaili likes all the hip songs on the radio. I hate to admit this but I just downloaded a Justin Bieber song because Kaili loves it..
Kaili's class had a field trip to the new Children's Museum downtown. I was worried about having to bring Averi along but it worked out pretty well. A lot of the museum was great for both kids but there were some parts that weren't Averi accessible, I would have had a hard time rounding them up all by myself.
Days are starting to get easier. Averi is sleeping through the night, Kaili has been pretty good about staying quiet until 6:30. Aves will play by herself and watch some cartoons while I need to get whatever done, and then she naps from about 10 until noonish. That time I spend working out and reading in the sun or the bath. I am trying to take more of her nap time to zen out. I don't know if it helps with my patience or not, I like to think it does.
It all sounds so familiar, the trials raising children. Just enjoy! They grow up so fast!

There are a number of popular myths about these supposed "lost Gospels" that are not in the New Testament. The following is a response to these general misunderstandings.
Myth #1: The Lost Gospels should be in the New Testament.
Contrary to the claims of some, there were not hundreds of Gospels that were written about Jesus in the first century. The early Church only had access to four first century Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. This is why there are only four Gospels in the New Testament. The simple fact is that there were not any other first century Gospels in existence at that time.
Furthermore, the criteria which the early Church used to discover which books were from God include the following:
Was a book written by an apostle or associate of an apostle of Jesus? (Apostolicity)
This was the first and main criteria for allowing a book to be in the canon of Scripture. If a book was written by either an apostle or an associate of an apostle (i.e., Mark was an associate of Peter and Luke was an associate of Paul), then the book could be in the canon. An apostle was someone who had seen the resurrected Jesus and who had a close fellowship with Jesus (1 Cor. 9:1). However, if the book was written over a hundred years after the time of Jesus, as is the case with most of the Gnostic Gospels including the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Peter, etc., then such books were obviously not written by an apostle and should not be in the canon. The last apostle who lived was the apostle John who died around 100 A.D. Any epistle written after that time was definitely not apostolic.
Did the book agree with undoubtedly authentic writings? (Consistency)
Another criteria was whether such a book agreed with obviously authentic books of the New Testament. For example, the book of James was questioned because there was some doubt whether it agreed with Paul's writings (i.e., Romans and Galatians). No one seriously questioned whether Paul actually wrote a core number of epistles such as Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Philippians, and 1 Thessalonians. Interestingly, even if we did not have the rest of the New Testament books, we probably could build most of our essential Christian doctrine on the book of Romans alone!
Was the book circulated amongst various churches? (Catholicity)
Another criteria, but less important, was whether a book was circulated amongst various churches. This criteria was known as catholicity or universality. This would help the church leaders to know where the Gospel or letter originated so they could trace its roots and determine if the book was apostlolic.
Myth #2: The Lost Gospels taught that Jesus was only a man.
Actually, many of the "lost Gospels" or "Gnostic Gospels" taught that Jesus was God, but not man. This is a heresy known as Docetism, which was prevalent in the second and possibly even first centuries. In fact, the popular Gospel of Thomas likely teaches that Jesus is a divine teacher, but it is quite doubtful whether he is even human. Many of the infancy Gospels, such as the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, etc., were written to explain how Jesus was basically non-human by having the child Jesus perform amazing miracles.
Myth #3: The Lost Gospels are earlier than the New Testament Gospels and/or Epistles.
The vast majority of critical scholars today argue that the New Testament Gospels are earlier than all the other "lost Gospels" in their present form. Some scholars argue that there may be a saying or two in the Gospel of Thomas, or Gospel of Truth, etc., which may date back to the first century, and possibly even go back to Jesus. However, most of these scholars view these Gospels as late embellishments of the stories in the Gospels. For example, see how the infancy Gospels embellish the stories of Jesus' early childhood and how the Gospel of Peter embellishes the resurrection accounts of Jesus (see: Does the Gospel of Peter belong in the New Testament?).
Myth #4: The Early Church only picked those Gospels which were in accordance with their theological beliefs.
It is certainly true that the early church allowed certain books into the canon which accorded with their beliefs. However, their beliefs were based on a core list of undisputed books of the New Testament such as the four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) and the main letters of Paul (Romans, 1 and 2 Corinthians, Galatians, Philippians, and 1 Thessalonians). The early church was not arbitrary in their decision making, but generally took into consideration the three criteria listed above: apostolicity, consistency, and catholicity.
Myth #5: The Council of Nicea (325 A.D.) determined which books should be in the New Testament.
The Council of Nicea did not deal with canonical questions, or questions regarding which books should belong in the New Testament. Instead, the Council of Nicea dealt with a heresy known as Arianism (held by modern dayJehovah's Witnesses and Christadelphians), which taught that Jesus was a man, but not God. The final list of the twenty seven books which are in the New Testament actually came from Bishop Athanasius in 367 A.D. However, most of the books in the New Testament were already accepted and used by various churches well before then. In fact, the bishop Irenaeus wrote around 180 A.D. about the four Gospels being compared to the four directions of the winds. Various other second century writers also were extensively using the New Testament including Ignatius, Polycarp, Justin Martyr, Papias, and Athenagoras to name a few.1

11:30 p.m. The clock ticked too slowly toward midnight in the service station where I was working by myself as a cashier. The island of gas pumps appeared lonely in the middle of the ocean of asphalt. The blinking fluorescent lights gave the night a surreal feeling of untruth at the convenience store along the lonely stretch of highway.
That night was a pivotal point in my life.
I was physically alone, standing behind the cash register. The crickets sang in harmony – somewhere in the walls, somewhere in the dark night. But I did not, could not, feel their peaceful lullaby. Fear gripped me as it did every night. Jumping at my own shadow, I skittishly made my way across that ocean, the crickets silenced by the thumping of my shoes. After manually shutting off the gas pumps, I quickly headed back to the safety of the empty store to do my last duty of the night. I had to count the money in the cash register.
Back behind the counter, I reached to open the register when the rumble of three motorcycles disrupted the crickets as they crossed the parking lot.
Three young men sauntered into the store. I stood behind the counter, eyeing their movements as they walked along each aisle. The leader took his time. As he walked along, he reached up and sporadically knocked items off the shelves. A can of Campbell's soup. Premium saltines. A box of Nabisco cookies.
I kept thinking, Please, God, move my hands. I need to call 911. I need to call 911.
My hand moved slowly, cautiously, toward the telephone. My heart pounded, beads of sweat dripped down the nape of my neck.
The gloating trio gathered in front of the cash register; my fingers inches from the receiver.
Tears ebbed onto my eyelashes. I was too terrified to move, to breathe, to speak. The leader began to lean forward, his arms hidden beneath the thick leather jacket, his tendrils of fingers reached out for me.
I kept praying, Please, no. Don't hurt me. God, save me. Please, save me!
Then, a thunderous roar shattered the moment. I looked up and watched a heavy black riding boot kick open the glass doors. The glass shuddered but did not break. I cringed at the site. The tears finally found their escape and rolled down my quivering cheeks. There, at the door, stood the largest man I'd ever seen. He looked at least seven feet tall, but my fear must have exaggerated his height. Stark red hair was as wild as the heavy, free-styled beard. His wide-set shoulders, muscles, and extra folds of skin bulged beneath a worn-out, black tee shirt. He wore a black leather vest with a club patch carefully sewn over the top pocket.
I read that patch and thought, Oh, god, I'm dead now.
The man stepped forward and I blinked the tears out of my eyes – and saw his. The only way I know how to describe them is that they were of the most gracious, celestial blue. He stepped up to the counter, shoving the three aside.
Still frozen, still terrified, I nodded yes.
I stared at him. I looked from his eyes to his hand on my shoulder, back to his eyes.
The being, whether angelic or human, was my miracle from God.
The next thing I remember, I was standing behind that counter — alone in an empty store. It was around midnight. The lights over the gas pumps buzzed and flickered. Was it all a dream? I stepped from behind the counter and walked up and down the aisles. I picked up a can of Campbell's soup, now dented from its demise. I took both hands and carefully placed the box of Premium crackers back on the shelf. The Nabisco cookies joined the others.
I wasn't afraid anymore. I was grateful. I stood there and thanked God for the miracle.
For the one who saved me — whoever you are, wherever you are — thank you.
To all the heroes, all the ones who silently carry the code of chivalry, you remind us that it is far from dead.

A third of education staff have dealt with physical violence – ATL
Posted by The Editor on 30 Mar 2012 in News · 0 Comments
A third of school and college staff have dealt with physical violence from a student during this academic year, according to a survey by the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL).
Of those staff who had to deal with violent students, one in four said it had been violence directed at them and the same percentage said it was directed at a teacher. The main forms of physical violence experienced included pushing and shoving, punching, hitting and kicking. These were the key findings of an ATL survey of 814 teachers, lecturers, support staff and school leaders in state and independent schools and colleges across the UK.
A support staff member at a state secondary school in Wales said: "I had a female student threaten to kick the smile off my face, in front of a whole class." A teacher at a state secondary school in England said: "Six boys were refusing to work, throwing glue, pens, fighting and throwing books." A management team member at a state primary school in England said: "A Year 4 pupil threw a Year 1 child on the school field."
Staff believe the behaviour of pupils has become worse over the last two years, with just under half saying it had got worse, while 57% believed it has worsened over the last five years.
However, across all schools and colleges, members reported that the vast majority of bad behaviour was low-level disruption such as talking and not paying attention (87%), disrespect (85%), including the use of mobile phones in class and ignoring teachers' requests, and verbal attacks (63%).
Tony Osborne, a further education lecturer from England, said: "Low-level disruption, name-calling, using mobile phones in class and homophobic language is an everyday occurrence with foundation level learners in FE."
A primary teacher in Surrey said: "I experience low-level disruption every day from a core group of six pupils. Constantly disrupting, talking, shouting, fighting, rolling around on the carpet, poking each other with pencils, rocking on chairs, whistling or humming, with absolutely no respect for others or school property. I feel I am child-minding throughout the school day – just trying to keep the rest of the class safe."
The lack of positive role models at home (73%), relational breakdowns within families (63%) and seeking attention from other pupils (73%) were highlighted by staff as being major factors contributing to problem behaviour in schools.
A special educational needs staff member at a secondary school in England said: "Pupils are often confused, lack stable families, lack discipline or discipline is inconsistently applied."
For the vast majority of staff, poor student behaviour disrupts their classes (80%), but for nearly half of staff (49%) dealing with challenging behaviour has led to stress and more than a third (37%) have suffered from anxiety.
A support staff member at a state primary school in England said: "A pupil once hit me in the back totally unexpectedly, because I had asked her to put a book away. I was so winded and hurt that I couldn't carry on that day."
On a positive note, over half of staff felt their school or college provides adequate support in dealing with reported incidents. Nearly 90% of staff said their school has a clear behaviour policy with 57% of staff satisfied with this policy, although three in ten were not satisfied. Two-thirds (67%) of staff believe that having a whole-school behaviour policy is the most effective way of managing pupil behaviour. Whole-school bullying policies (53%) and receiving support from the management team (47%) are also considered important.
The most common forms of discipline used by schools and colleges include calling or summoning children's parents (82%), removal from lessons (82%), and warnings (80%). However, independent schools tended to favour using detentions (77%), suspensions (76%), as well as warnings (75%) and summoning parents (74%). Of all those surveyed, a third (33%) of staff said pupils had been excluded from their school during the current academic year, a figure which rose to 51% among academy staff in England.
Victoria Malcolm, a primary school teacher from a state school in England, said: "Pupils know that there is little school staff can do to enforce discipline. They are not 'afraid' for want of a different word. Behaviour folders, traffic light charts, even talking to parents does nothing to encourage certain children to improve their behaviour."
Respondents also raised concerns over the support they had received from the parents or guardians of children who behaved poorly. Gail Reardon, a secondary teacher from a state school in England, said: "Most parents are supportive, however, a minority refuse to acknowledge or deal with their child's behaviour."
A management team member at a state primary school in England said: "A change in pupils' behaviour is not helped by the lack of respect that parents show towards staff in school – there is no wonder that some pupils are rude when this is what they see as a role model."
ATL general secretary, Dr Mary Bousted, said: "It is shocking that a third of teaching staff have experienced violence and that it is getting worse. ATL firmly believes that no member of staff should be subjected to violent behaviour by pupils.
"A minority of children are very aware of their rights, have a total disregard of school rules and are rather less aware of their responsibility for their own learning and how to show respect to staff and other students. This can apply as much to over-indulged middle class children as those from challenging families.
"It is not surprising to see that poor behaviour is often attributed to problems at home. Teachers need to work with parents to encourage good behaviour and parents should be acting as good role models by supporting staff and helping them create a more positive learning environment for their children."

Q: www.example.co.uk is not redirecting to https://www.example.co.uk I have created .htaccess file rules. when i used without example.co.uk site get redirect to https://www.example.co.uk but when i tried www.example.co.uk then its not redirecting to https://www.example.co.uk
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.co.uk$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.co.uk/$1 [R=301,L]

is anyone has any suggestion what went wrong? with this

A: Well, your first condition explicitly makes sure that the redirection only will get applied when the requested host name is exactly "example.co.uk". So not "www.example.co.uk". You can change that condition to accept both variants:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.co\.uk$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^ https://www.example.co.uk%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,END]

Higher-order risk attitudes other than risk aversion (e.g., prudence and temperance) play vital roles both in theoretical and empirical work. While the literature has mainly focused on how they entail a preference for combining "good" outcomes with "bad" outcomes, we consider here an alternative approach which relates higher-order risk attitudes to the sign of correlation. The theoretical result in this paper proposes new insights into economic and financial applications such as risk aversion in the presence of another risk, bivariate stochastic dominance and justifying the first-order approach to moral hazard principal-agent problems.

While the literature has mainly focused on how they entail a preference for combining "good" outcomes with "bad" outcomes, we consider here an alternative approach which relates higher-order risk attitudes to the sign of correlation. The theoretical result in this paper proposes new insights into economic and financial applications such as risk aversion in the presence of another risk, bivariate stochastic dominance and justifying the first-order approach to moral hazard principal-agent problems.

A handsome young man lured us into a sumptuous chamber room and an unexpected sight. My two teens and I had come to Bagore-ki-Haveli in search of the world's largest turban, not realizing that the renovated royal home also housed an extensive collection of folk arts. Doffing our shoes, we entered a large room sectioned into the jharokhas seen at havelis of Rajasthan. Holding court in the silk-cushioned jharokhas were intricately sculpted, ornately dressed…Indian puppets.
These puppets in India, known as Kathputli (Kath meaning wood and Putli meaning puppet,) are believed to be an expression of an art tradition going back thousands of years. That history is apparent in the way the puppets are assembled as if gathered in the royal court of a maharaja and his wife, the maharini.
…even a little scary. I couldn't help but be reminded of Chucky, the horror film doll, as we were surrounded by creepy puppets.
Not that anything is as frightening as the life-sized dolls accompanying me on our family travels in India.
Go to see the world's largest turban and the creepy puppets, stay for the fabulous Rajasthani dance performances at 7pm in the haveli's courtyard.

WASHINGTON—With the gentrification of D.C.'s urban communities, Neighborhood Advisory Commissioner Greta Fuller, voiced that the downtown Anacostia MLK Gateway, which stands at the intersection of Good Hope Road SE, Washington, D.C. and Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue SE, Washington, D.C., should be spearheaded by the Black owned Menkiti Group and Enlightened Inc.
At the recent Business and Economic Development & Transportation and Environment D.C. city council meeting Fuller expressed her Ward's complete backing of the two groups.
"On November 7th, 2017 in a forum of six commissioners, present Advisory Neighborhood Committee members voted unanimously to support the surplus and disposition of the MLK Gateway site to the MLK Gateway partners LLC," Fuller said. Fuller expressed that this support is contingent on "the completion of a community benefits agreement." The exact details of the agreement will be disclosed after "90 days," Fuller said.
The Menkiti Group, a real estate company and Enlightened Inc., an information technologies company, were founded in part by D.C. natives. Bo Menkiti founded the Menkiti Group in 2004 and Antwayne Ford & company founded Enlightened Inc. in 1999.
The development will provide "over 250 permanent jobs," to the Ward 8 community Menkiti said. Ward 8 that has a roughly $30,000 a year median income per household is looking for ways to increase jobs and build its community.
The MLK Gateway LLC. disclosed that it would be placing a Menkiti Group hub and real estate academy at the site along with the Enlightened Inc. headquarters. Enlightened Inc.'s goal will be to, "Bring tech to historic Anacostia," Menkiti said. Menkiti Group and Enlightened LLC. make a "combined 100 million dollars in annual revenue," and were recognized as "two of the fastest growing inter-city businesses in the United States, " by Fortune Magazine. The two were honored for the 2015 fiscal year. Enlightened has been honored every year since.
Ward 8 city council member Trayon White Sr., relayed Ward 8's desire to partner with Enlightened Inc. in order to expand career technical education within the Ward, "Not only for our students, but also for our residents," White said. He went on to issue his approval of the MLK Gateway partners, but also promised those in attendance along with his Ward 8 community that he would be paying very close attention to this development to insure that all parties are working for the betterment of historic Anacostia. "While I'm excited that this project is aligned with so many of desires such as: high tech job training and abstaining food options, it is also important that we ensure that the development team actually meets the goals they have articulated," White said.
Following the testimonies of the public witnesses and Councilman White, the Council members moved to and in a unanimous disposition council members Cheh, Allen, Evans and Todd voted Yes, to the proposal of the MLK Gateway LLC.

The world history of referendums
This chapter traces the history of the referendum from its earliest origins to its present-day use or, some would say, abuse. After a tour d'horizon of the earlier use of the direct democracy, it presents a historical overview of the use of referendums from the Renaissance through to the First World War. Despite the term's earlier use, the referendum began to be used in earnest only in the nineteenth century, when the Italian Risorgimento and the early years of the Swiss Federation (after 1848) essentially owed their existence to the use of the referendum. Having analysed these cases, the chapter takes a closer look at the discussion about the referendum in the United Kingdom and the European continent. Drawing on a functionalist-inspired model, it ends with reflections and research on why there has been an apparent increase in the use of the referendum since the 1980s.

Updated NIOSH Guidance - Respirators and Facial Hair
The OSHA requirement for respirators has been interpreted as: When a respirator is required, an employer is prohibited from allowing respirators with tight-fitting facepieces to be worn by employees who have "facial hair that comes between the sealing surface of the facepiece and the face or that interferes with valve function. Facial hair is allowed as long as it does not protrude through the respirator seal or extend far enough to interfere with the device's valve function."
OSHA and ANSI Z88.10-2010 prohibit fit testing respirators when facial hair is at the sealing surface of the respirator. OSHA's Fit Testing Procedures, 29 CFR 1910.134 Appendix A, Part I, (A)(9), states "The test shall not be conducted if there is any hair growth between the skin and the facepiece sealing surface, such as stubble beard growth, beard, mustache or sideburns which cross the respirator sealing surface. Any type of apparel which interferes with a satisfactory fit shall be altered or removed."
Last month, NIOSH updated its guidance regarding facial hair and respirators as follows:
"Facial hair that lies along the sealing area of the respirator, such as beards, sideburns, moustaches, or even a few days growth of stubble, should not be permitted on employees who are required to wear respirators that rely on tight facepiece fit. Facial hair either growing in or protruding into the area of the primary sealing surfaces of the respirator will prevent a good seal. Any degradation to the respirator seal will degrade the ability of the respirator to deliver protection, in effect it will have a reduced protection factor. Respirators that normally support a negative pressure in the facepiece will have an increased potential to allow leakage of contaminated air into the facepiece. Respirators designed to maintain a positive facepiece pressure will suffer from reduced service time along with wasting breathing air during use. A worker should not enter a contaminated work area when conditions prevent a good seal of the respirator facepiece to the face.
This interpretation applies to all primary seals of tight-fitting full and half facepiece respirators, as well as tight-fitting respirator designs that rely on a neck dam seal.
This interpretation does not apply to loose fitting hood or helmet respirator designs such as those used on Powered Air Purifying Respirators, Supplied Air Respirators and Constant-Flow Escape type SCBAs that utilize only capes or shrouds for primary seals. With these type respirators, careful consideration must be given in using these loose fitting face coverings to assure that they do not have a neck dam, a face seal or an integrated, tight-fitting half mask. These respirators, utilizing only capes or shrouds as primary seals, may then be selected and used by workers with facial hair.
If a respirator covering includes a hood design and the primary seal around the neck of the wearer, facial hair, such as a full beard, cannot be present in the area of the seal. Additionally, if a hood design includes a primary seal within the hood, by including a component covering the mouth, nose and chin of the wearer (similar to a typical half mask), facial hair cannot be present in the area of the seal of this component. In the event that the respirator design incorporates any one of these sealing mechanisms, facial hair must be prevented from interfering with the sealing surface and the function of the respirator during use.
Escape-only types of air purifying respirators are not required by OSHA to be fit tested, but special care must be exercised whenever they are being carried for potential use. For all tight-fitting, escape-only respirators, precautions must be taken to assure that the seal needed for effective use will not be affected by facial hair or body hair in the event the respirators would be needed for escape from a toxic atmosphere.
Mouth-bit type escape only respirators are inherently unaffected by facial hair, face size, or neck size and their use and fitting characteristics are not dependent on these features."

NIOSH to Address Concerns on Extending Life of SCBAs
On October 5, 2017, the DOT's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) issued special permit 16320 (DOT-SP-16320) Third Edition, to the Digital Wave Corporation. The special permit authorizes the extension of the cylinder original equipment manufacturer (OEM) 15-year service life for certain carbon-fiber reinforced aluminum-lined cylinders (DOT-CFFC) in 5-year increments, up to 15 additional years, for those devices that pass modal acoustic emissions (MAE) requalification testing. DOT-CFFC cylinders include those used by fire departments and first responders as a component of a NIOSH-approved SCBA.
NIOSH has heard from stakeholders who are concerned that allowing the requalification of SCBA beyond the original 15-year service life may result in health and safety issues for users. Therefore, NIOSH plans to publish a request for information in the Federal Register to seek information and data about safety problems documented by manufacturers or users.
If you have questions or concerns about the application of DOT-SP-16320 to approved and deployed SCBA, review the user instructions, supplemental informational inserts, safety precautions, and SCBA warranty information provided by the NIOSH approval holder. NIOSH has encouraged approval holders to provide respiratory protection program administrators and SCBA users with current recommendations regarding DOT-SP-16320 and service life limitations.
Further questions can be addressed by the approval holder of NIOSH-approved SCBA with type CFFC originally marked with DOT-SP-10915, 10945, 11194, 13381, 13179, 13853, 14232, and 14339.
Jet-Air Dryers Should Not Be Used in Hospital Restrooms
Jet-air hand dryers in hospital toilets spread more germs than disposable paper towels and should not be used, say researchers. Writing in the Journal of Hospital Infection, they argue that the official guidance about how to prevent bacterial contamination in hospital buildings needs to be strengthened.
At the moment, the official Department of Health guidance says air dryers can be placed in toilets in the public areas of a hospital but not in clinical areas: not because of the risks they pose for cross contamination but because they are noisy. Mark Wilcox, Professor of Medical Microbiology at the University of Leeds who supervised the international study, said the guidance needed to focus on the infection risks, given the new evidence.
The new study looked at bacterial spread in a real world setting – in two toilets in each of three hospitals, which were in the UK, France and Italy. Each of the toilets had paper towel dispensers and jet-air dryers, but only one of these was in use on any given day.
Professor Wilcox said: "The problem starts because some people do not wash their hands properly. When people use a jet-air dryer, the microbes get blown off and spread around the toilet room. In effect, the dryer creates an aerosol that contaminates the toilet room, including the dryer itself and potentially the sinks, floor and other surfaces, depending on the dryer design and where it is sited. If people touch those surfaces, they risk becoming contaminated by bacteria or viruses."
Jet-air dryers often rely on no-touch technology to initiate hand drying. However, paper towels absorb the water and microbes left on the hands and if they are disposed of properly, there is less potential for cross-contamination."
The study, led by researchers from the University of Leeds and Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust, was the largest of its type to investigate whether the way people dried their hands has an impact on the spread of bacteria. This research follows a previous laboratory-based study led by the same team, which found that jet-air dryers were much worse than paper towels or traditional warm air hand dryers when it came to spreading germs.
The hospitals used in the study were the Leeds General Infirmary in Yorkshire, Saint-Antoine hospital AP-HP in France, and the Hospital of Udine in Italy. On each day, over 12 weeks, levels of bacterial contamination in the toilets were measured, allowing comparisons to be made when either paper towels or jet-air dryers were in use.
Samples were taken from the floors, air and surfaces in each of the toilets. The main target bacteria were:
Staphylococcus aureus: responsible for a range of conditions from minor skin and wound infections to life-threatening septicaemia
Enterococci: bacteria that can cause difficult-to-treat infections, including in immunocompromised patients
Enterobacteria: including Escherichia coli. These bacteria cause a wide range of infections, including gastroenteritis, pneumonia and septicaemia
Across the three hospitals, bacterial counts were significantly higher in the toilets on the days that jet-air dryers were in use. In Leeds and Paris, at least five times more bacteria were recovered from the floors when jet-air dryers were in use, compared with paper towels.
In Leeds, Staphylococcus aureus (including MRSA) was found three times more often and in higher amounts on the surface of the jet-air dryers compared with the paper towel dispensers. Significantly more enterococci and multidrug resistant bacteria were recovered from either the floors or dust of toilets when the jet-air dryers rather than paper towels were in use. In Italy, the researchers found significantly fewer bacteria on the surface of paper towel dispensers compared with the jet-air dryers, although no significant difference on the floors.
Professor Wilcox said: "We found multiple examples of greater bacterial contamination on surfaces, including by faecal and antibiotic-resistant bacteria, when jet-air dryers rather than paper towels were in use. Choice of hand drying method affects how likely microbes can spread, and so possibly the risk of infection."
Frédéric Barbut, Professor of Microbiology at Saint-Antoine hospital AP-HP, said: "The higher environmental contamination observed when using jet air-dryers compared with paper towels increases the risk for cross-contamination.
"These results confirm previous laboratory-based findings and support the recent French guidelines regarding hand hygiene, which discourage using jet-air dryers in clinical wards".
The study was funded by the European Tissue Symposium, a trade organization representing companies that manufacture paper towels. However, the research was independently conceived, designed, conducted and interpreted, and was peer-reviewed by experts not involved in the study.
Sawmill Cited for Safety Violations
OSHA has proposed penalties of $199,183 to American Walnut Company LLC for two repeated and 14 serious safety violations. OSHA initiated an inspection of the St. Joseph sawmill after an employee suffered fatal injuries when he fell into a machine.
OSHA's safety investigation of the March 12, 2018, incident found the company failed to evaluate job hazards, control hazardous energy, and ensure machines were equipped with adequate guards. The investigation also found the company exposed workers to hazards associated with falls, ladders and electrical safety.
"Employers must continually evaluate job hazards and ensure safety guards are in use to protect workers from known hazards in their facilities," said OSHA Kansas City Area Office Director Karena Lorek. "Employers and workers with questions on OSHA standards can contact OSHA for guidance on creating an effective safety and health program."
Observed noise hazards prompted a subsequent health inspection in April 2018 that found the company exposed workers to hazards associated with combustible dust, noise and the use of chemicals in the facility.
Ohio Wood Pallet Manufacturer Cited for Employee Amputation
OSHA has cited pallet manufacturer Buckeye Diamond Logistics Inc. – which operates as BDL Supply – for lockout/tagout hazards after an employee suffered an amputation at the Columbus-based company. OSHA proposed penalties of $191,794 for two repeated and four serious violations.
The employee suffered a finger amputation while working with an energized pallet stack machine. OSHA investigators determined that the company failed to develop lockout/tag out procedures, install machine guards, and train employees on procedures to prevent machines from starting during service and maintenance; and exposed employees to electrical hazards. OSHA cited the company for similar violations at its Lima and South Charleston, Ohio, facilities in 2016.
Researchers Highlight Neglected Evidence on the Cardiovascular Risks of Toxic Metals
Exposure to arsenic, lead, copper, and cadmium is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease, finds a comprehensive analysis of the evidence published today in The BMJ. An accompanying editorial by Ana Navas-Acien at the Columbia Mailman School of Public Health and colleagues points to metals as an important but neglected source of cardiovascular risk.
"Despite widespread distribution of toxic metal contaminants, technical reports from environmental and public health agencies often disregard the mounting evidence of associated cardiovascular risk," Navas-Acien and her co-authors write. "Similarly, metal exposures are neglected by the organizations that produce cardiovascular prevention guidelines."
The editorial calls the new meta-analysis an "important call for attention," adding that because metals are associated with cardiovascular disease even at relatively low levels of exposure, "population-wide strategies to minimize exposure can further contribute to overall cardiovascular prevention efforts."
In their meta-analysis, Sara Shahzad at the University of Cambridge and colleagues identified 37 separate studies involving almost 350,000 participants. A total of 13,033 coronary heart disease, 4,205 stroke and 15,274 cardiovascular outcomes were reported across the studies, which include several by Columbia Mailman Environmental Health Sciences Professors Navas-Acien and Joseph Graziano. Shahzad and colleagues conclude exposures to arsenic, lead, cadmium, and copper are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death.
The editorial cites national surveys documenting a marked reduction in population exposure to lead and cadmium (the metals monitored for longest), which the authors say largely reflect public health policies on the control of tobacco, reduction of air pollution, remediation of hazardous waste, renovation of drinking water infrastructures, and banning of lead in gasoline. Concomitant with these reductions, cardiovascular mortality rates decreased by 43%; nearly a third of this decline is explained by a decline in lead and cadmium exposures.
However, Navas-Acien and co-authors highlight substantial sources of exposure today: widespread soil contamination; persistence of past uses (house paint and plumbing for lead); continuing industrial uses (plastics and batteries); and presence in tobacco and tobacco smoke, drinking water and ambient air, and dust near industrial and waste sites. Particularly, in low- and middle-income countries, including many countries in Africa and Asia, exposure to high levels of arsenic and lead "is still a serious threat to public health that requires urgent action," they write.
An emerging source of metals is electronic cigarettes, where exposure seems to be the heating coil, from where metals leach into the inhaled aerosol. (Navas-Acien is the co-author of a National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report on e-cigarettes published earlier this year).
Alabama Woodworking Company Cited for Exposing Employees to Fire and Explosion Hazards
OSHA cited Harrison Industries LLC – operating as Structural Wood Systems Inc. – for exposing employees to multiple hazards at its Greenville, Alabama, worksite. The company faces $85,362 in proposed penalties.
OSHA cited the woodworking manufacturer for failing to ensure employees used protective eyewear and respirators, implement a respiratory protection and permit-required confined space program, and use guards on a motorized roller conveyer table; and for allowing combustible wood dust to accumulate, exposing employees to fire and explosion hazards. The inspection was conducted under OSHA's National Emphasis Program on Combustible Dust and the National Emphasis Program on Amputations.
"This investigation is an example of why employers must implement effective safety and health programs to identify and address recognizable hazards that can cause serious injuries to employees," said OSHA Mobile Area Office Director Joseph Roesler.
Grants for Worker Safety Available in Michigan
The Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration (MIOSHA) announced that companies with 250 or fewer employees can apply for a matching grant of up to $5,000 to make improvements in workplace safety and health. The MIOSHA Workplace Improvement to Safety and Health program is designed to create a safer and healthier work environment while reducing the risk of injury and illness. The grant period begins October 1, 2018 and continues on an ongoing basis until the $250,000 in funding is expended.

Natalie is very kind, helpful and organized host! She answered all my questions promptly, and even worked with me to arrange for a venue walk through. Her space has lots of table and chairs and coolers for the party I was hosting. We stayed mainly in the backyard area, which was elegant and spacious. The bathroom is easy access from the backyard and perfect for my event. The nightime lights made for a cozy romantic feel. My guests were so impressed with how I was able to pull the event together, but I give all the credit to Natalie's beautiful home. I already recommended 4 of my friends to have a wedding at Natalie's home haha
Vivian H.
Amazing experience, Natalie was a dream to work with. Only thing is if you having an event with older guests beware there is a fairly steep step in the kitchen. Other than that I would come book another party here again.

Pros and Cons of Video Shoots in Altadena
There are several factors to consider when deciding whether or not to shoot a video in Altadena. The community has a lot to offer, but it's important to weigh the pros and cons carefully before making a decision. Here are some things to keep in mind:
Altadena has picturesque natural views and landscapes, perfect for capturing stunning visuals.
Many local landmarks and attractions provide interesting and unique backgrounds for any production.
There are a variety of restaurants, breweries, cafes, and food trucks in the area for cast and crew to enjoy.
Local businesses offer opportunities to source props, equipment, and other filming needs.
The potential disruption caused by filming can sometimes cause issues with nearby residents or businesses who are not comfortable with the presence of a film crew in their vicinity.
Some areas require special permits or licenses before filming can begin, making it important for producers to research all applicable regulations beforehand.
As Altadena is mainly residential there is limited access to backdrops suitable for large commercial shoots such as factory buildings or industrial complexes.
Traffic congestion during peak hours can be quite disruptive for a shooting schedule.
Tips on How to Organize Video Shoots In Altadena
Organizing a video shoot location in Altadena doesn't have to be a daunting task. With the right planning, the process can be both efficient and enjoyable.
The first step is to choose an appropriate spot: If you're shooting outdoors, look for a scenic location that won't be too noisy or crowded. Make sure the area has plenty of parking and easy access to equipment. Inside locations should be large enough to accommodate your crew and equipment, and there should also be adequate lighting and ventilation.
Get the permits: The second step is to secure necessary permits from local government offices in Altadena. Depending on where you plan to film, you may need a permit from the City Council or other agencies like the Department of Parks & Recreation or the Bureau of Parks & Open Space Management. Contacting these offices ahead of time will save you time and hassle during setup day.
Rent what you need: If needed, rent equipment well in advance, so it will arrive at least one day before filming begins. To avoid any last-minute surprises, make sure all your lighting fixtures are compatible with each other and that they fit into your budget as well as your schedule.
Hire a good crew: Finally, it's important to assemble a reliable crew who knows their film production roles inside out and who is prepared for any eventuality on the shoot day itself; this includes having medical personnel on-site if necessary (depending on how big your production is).

The aim of this Resource Manual (Second Edition 2011) is to help States Parties to achieve good quality World Heritage nominations. There are many different ways to prepare a nomination. The diversity of administrative structures and cultures are necessarily reflected in the nominations. It is not appropriate to give 'recipes' or to recommend a preferred working method for preparing nominations. There are many different good ways of doing so. Nevertheless, the Advisory Bodies consider that there are a few underlying basic principles which should underpin all good nominations to ensure that the most appropriate properties are nominated, properties are represented as effectively as possible within nominations, and the nomination process itself contributes to protection, conservation and effective management of natural and cultural heritage. This manual seeks to: – stress the importance of understanding the World Heritage nomination system; – highlight and explain in simple terms key World Heritage concepts; – emphasize the importance of the team in preparing a nomination; – provide a better understanding of the scope of work in preparing a nomination; – provide information and tips on understanding the property; – and provide tips on preparing the nomination file to help to clarify the Operational Guidelines . The manual also provides some advice on proposals for an extension to an existing World Heritage property, as a significant extension is treated as a new nomination. This manual is primarily for all those who are involved in developing World Heritage nominations for properties. It may also prove useful for the preparation of Tentative Lists, and for other heritage listing activities. The manual is designed to be a tool for self-guided learning; training workshops; and briefing and educating. This manual is a second edition. The first edition, Edition 2010, took as a reference the Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention (2008). This manual is based on the new version of the Operational Guidelines (2011).

Q: How can I solve a system of 'n' (non linear) equations with 'n' variables (second degree polynomial) in Matlab? Is possible to solve a system of 'n' (no linear) equations with 'n' variables (grade 2 or 1) in Matlab?
Can you point me an example?
I've tried to use fsolve function but the next error appear:
??? Error using ==> feval
Undefined function or method 'ecuaciones' for input arguments of type
'double'.
example with fsolve
Edited:
I've a file called 'ecuaciones.m' which has the next content:
function [f]=ecuaciones(x)

f(1)=x(1) + x(2) + x(3) + 2*x(4) -1,905;
f(2)=2*x(3) + 3*x(4) + x(5) + x(6) - 3,922;
f(3)=x(1) + 2*x(2) + x(4) + x(5) + x(6) - 1,961;
f(4)=1,961*x(3) + x(3)*x(5) - x(2)*x(3) - 0,02834*(x(5)^2);
f(5)=9,32845*(x(3)^2) - x(4)*x(6);
f(6)=61,4723*x(1)*x(6) - x(2)*x(5);

J = zeros (n,n);

J =

[ 1, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0]
[ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
[ 0, 0, 2, 3, 1, 1]
[ 1, 2, 0, 1, 1, 1]
[ 0, -x3, x5 - x2 + 1961/1000, 0, x3 - (1417*x5)/25000, 0]
[ 0, 0, (2625725246496519*x3)/140737488355328, -x6, 0, -x4]
[ (8651457105425229*x6)/140737488355328, -x5, 0, 0, -x2, (8651457105425229*x1)/140737488355328];

Then, in Matlab console I try:
>> x0=[1,1,1,1,1,1];
>> [x,feval,flag]=fsolve('ecuaciones',x0);

A: Use a function handle
 >> x = fsolve( @ecuaciones, x0 );

You need to make sure ecuaciones.m is in matlab's path.
UPDATE:
for better convergence, you might want to compute the Jacobian as well.
In your case, the Jacobian is an n by n matrix with J(l,k) is the partial derivative of f(l) w.r.t x(k) at the point x.
You will need to modify ecuaciones.m to return two outputs the first is f and the second is J
function [f J] = ecuaciones( x )

f(1)=x(1) + x(2) + x(3) + 2*x(4) -1,905;
f(2)=2*x(3) + 3*x(4) + x(5) + x(6) - 3,922;
f(3)=x(1) + 2*x(2) + x(4) + x(5) + x(6) - 1,961;
f(4)=1,961*x(3) + x(3)*x(5) - x(2)*x(3) - 0,02834*(x(5)^2);
f(5)=9,32845*(x(3)^2) - x(4)*x(6);
f(6)=61,4723*x(1)*x(6) - x(2)*x(5);

J = [...
      1, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0;...
      0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0;...
      0, 0, 2, 3, 1, 1;...
      1, 2, 0, 1, 1, 1;...
      0, -x3, x5 - x2 + 1961/1000, 0, x3 - (1417*x5)/25000, 0;...
      0, 0, (2625725246496519*x3)/140737488355328, -x6, 0, -x4;...
      (8651457105425229*x6)/140737488355328, -x5, 0, 0, -x2, (8651457105425229*x1)/140737488355328];

And you may call fsolve
>> x = fsolve( @ecuaciones, x0, struct('Jacobian','on') );

Acklie History, Family Crest & Coats of Arms
Acklie is a name whose history is connected to the ancient Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. The name is derived from when the Acklie family once lived in a clearing surrounded by oak trees. The surname Acklie literally means oak-meadow. [1] The surname Acklie is associated with the village of Acle in Norfolk, and the village of Akeley in Buckinghamshire.
Early Origins of the Acklie family
The surname Acklie was first found in Norfolk or Buckinghamshire. Of the two locations, Akeley (Akely) in Buckinghamshire seems to be the strongest place of origin for the surname. Located "in the union, hundred, and county of Buckingham, 2½ miles (N. by E.) from the town of Buckingham," [2]
Akeley has remained small over the years as by the late 1800s, it only had a population of 362. [2] However, the parish dates back to the Domesday Book of 1086 when it was first listed as Achelei. [3]
Some of the family were found in Whitworth, Durham in early years. "According to the Boldon book, this manor was held by Thomas de Acley, by the service of a quarter of a knight's fee." [2]
Early History of the Acklie family
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Acklie research. Another 295 words (21 lines of text) covering the years 1086, 1273, 1500, 1610 and 1769 are included under the topic Early Acklie History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Acklie Spelling Variations
Sound was what guided spelling in the essentially pre-literate Middle Ages, so one person's name was often recorded under several variations during a single lifetime. Also, before the advent of the printing press and the first dictionaries, the English language was not standardized. Therefore, spelling variations were common, even among the names of the most literate people. Known variations of the Acklie family name include Ackley, Acley, Acle, Ackle, Aclie, Acklie, Acly and others.
Early Notables of the Acklie family (pre 1700)
More information is included under the topic Early Acklie Notables in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
Migration of the Acklie family
For political, religious, and economic reasons, thousands of English families boarded ships for Ireland, Canada, the America colonies, and many of smaller tropical colonies in the hope of finding better lives abroad. Although the passage on the cramped, dank ships caused many to arrive in the New World diseased and starving, those families that survived the trip often went on to make valuable contributions to those new societies to which they arrived. Early immigrants bearing the Acklie surname or a spelling variation of the name include: Henry Ackerly, who sailed to New Haven, Connecticut in 1640. Also, Nicholas Acly who arrived in Connecticut in 1655; William Ackley in Virginia in 1664.
