Q: Why creating a file in etc folder is not allowed? I have a system builder project to make a QNX OS image that needs to be accomplished. The problem is I can't create files or folders in etc folder. When I try to do that I get "folder creation error! reason: function not implemented" or "no such file or directory".
I haven't build this myself. Where should I look for to solve it? etc permission is  777.

A: Default QNX image has Image Filesystem (the link is weird, just find "image silesystem" there) and it doesn't support folders and files creation.
For your perposes you can use:

*

*RAM fs (/dev/shmem, clears on reboot)

*Flash devices (USB key, eMMC)

*Network fs

*devb like SATA

To work with exactly /etc dir you can create virtual flash from RAM and mount it as /etc. Use devf-ram in this case

Together,you and I will develop strategies and realistic plans to help you reach your personal and financial goals. I can help you set a budget where you won't feel like you're giving up too much and at the same time put money in the bank. If it is a new job/career that you are looking for we will work collaboratively to design an employment search plan that will provide you your desired results.
Put it all in perspective - Yes, times are tough but compared to what? If you ate one meal today consider this: more than 840 million people in the world are malnourished — 799 million of them live in the developing world. If you have a roof over your head count your blessing because up to 100 million people are homeless worldwide, of which 20 million to 40 million are adrift in major urban centers.
Stop worrying and be concerned instead - Worry will not fix anything. There's a big difference between worry and concern. Worry keeps you up at night, concern helps you make plans.
Stop thinking so much - Thinking not planning is of not much use yo you when you are under stress. Put a gap in the unrelenting thoughts by meditating or exercising.
Start counting your money - Keep a record of every transaction you make and at the end of the month look at areas where you can count your spending.
Create a spending plan not a budget - Design a plan of how you want/need to spend your money and pay yourself first.
You are resilient - Human beings are very resilient, tenacious and powerful. Don't under estimate your capabilities to not only survive but to prosper.
Remember to laugh - Laughter is the best medicine and it really works plus it's free and anyone can do it.
Talk with others - It helps to remember that you are not alone. The majority of us are in the same boat. Talk to others and share your thoughts and frustrations.
Get creative - During every recession and even during the last Depression people made a lot of money. Host an "idea party". Create a consortium of like-minded people - two or even five heads are better than one.
Keep it simple - This old phrase is so true. Simplify everything. Study after study has shown that money does not make people happy. It buys a bit more physical freedom yes but not happiness. Take a lesson form those giggling children you see playing - they don't need a lot of toys to create their own little world of happiness; they just keep it simple.
Ask others for help - If not me ask someone to help you. It's a sign of strength to seek guidance and ask for help. The goal is interdependence.
Read what others have to say about their successful coaching experiences with me. All they had to do was take the initial step, say "yes" and ask for help.
Meet Jarrett and Quinn Margus, sons of Brad and Vicki. Jarrett and Quinn both have the killer disease Ataxia-telangiectasia or "A-T". Sound scary? It is.
A cure as yet to be discovered and currently there is no way to slow the diesase's progression. A-T is persistent and focused on in its attack of children. Only a fortunate few will avoid developing cancer. A-T patients usually die from respiratory failure or cancer by their teens or early twenties.
I hadn't heard of A-T until last month when my wife's ex-boss at Rockefeller University told her that a friend, Brad Margus and wife Vicki, founders of the A-T Children's Project had organized a fund raising effort in conjunction with the Walt Disney A-T Cure Tour. She new that I was a runner and quickly asked if I'd be interested in running the 2009 Disney Marathon to help raise funds and awareness. After reading about A-T how could I possibly say no?
My goal is to raise $4000 one month prior to the 6 a.m. January 11, 2009 start time of the Marathon. With a lot of help and generosity $3240 has been donated to date so, I'm very close to the $4000 goal. If you are able, please help the A-T Children's Project research efforts in fighting this devastating children's disease by contributing on my personal A-T home page.
Poor Vincent, nobody ever listened to him. Well, maybe his brother Theo but then he too, grew tired of Vincent's whining.
Since most people, (I include myself) are only thinking about what they are going to say next instead of actually listening to the person they are in conversation with, does anyone actually listen to anyone - besides themselves?
My wife frequently says, "You never listen to me." Never is far fetched but I admit that sometimes I don't listen to her but other times I don't 'hear' her. The difference between listening and hearing is like the difference between looking at a Van Gogh painting and seeing a Van Gogh painting. All my clients tell me that the biggest challenge they have is getting people to listen to and understand where they're "coming from". And that they don't feel fully appreciated because others don't listened when they speak. Again, so if everyone is speaking, who's listening?
I know immediately when someone is not listening to me because the first thing they say after they have pranced upon the small breath I took between words is, "but". "But" translated into non-listener parlance means, 'I didn't hear a word you said and I really don't care what you said because I disagree with what you said and my idea is far superior and better than yours so why are you bothering to speak to me at all?!" Sound familiar?
Even if you disagree with someone (most people tell me that when they don't "like" someone, they disagree with them before one word is spoken) you want to really hear what they are saying so that you truly understand what you disagree with. "Wow, that's really mature and professional," you say, so why aren't we listening to one another?
As Winston Churchill said, "Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen." There is a lot of value in WC's short sentence and most of it is made up of verbs. Listening is an action as is speaking and silence is more powerful that endless chatter and bravado. Yet, we love to talk. I do too and it is when I listen that I am truly engaged with another. Someone said that the greatest gift you can give to another human-being is the gift of your ear. Simply listen to them. You don't have to comment or try to fix anything, just listen. Try it now. What do you hear?
Last night my wife and I had dinner with family and friends. We hadn't seen each other in quite some time, so there was a lot to catch up on which created quite a ruckus. My mother who recently starting using a hearing aid continuously asked with much frustration, "what did you say?" Because most everyone at the table wanted to be heard, much was lost by everyone (not my wife of course, because she truly is an excellent listener) trying to talk over each other and tell the next joke or story. We had a lot of laughs but my poor mother didn't hear much of what was being said. I drove home thinking that I need to speak slower, more clearly and check for understanding when I speak with her in the future. I think that this will be a good practice to keep going no matter who I'm speaking with.
If we would all listen to each other the world, your world (home/work) would be significantly quieter, peaceful and more productive. Now, what were you saying?


Oh baby we're not done yet! I don't know why but it seems that Fox is airing the two episodes it chopped off of this season are being aired today. Perhaps they saw the reaction to the cancellation, who knows. As for this show itself, continue to #SaveLucifer & #PickUpLucifer because maybe, just maybe, this can be saved yet. Welcome to the Lucifer season 3 episode 25 "Boo Normal" & episode 26 "Once Upon a Time" spoilerific reaction, where you can share your thoughts on the show as it plays out or after it's done.

In true celebrity style, Cameroon's socialite Nathalie Koah welcomed her first child – a daughter named Beverly Nayla about two weeks ago at the renowned celebrity hospital and maternity unit Cedars Sinai in Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles California.
Having a baby is one of the most important events for a family. According to Cedars Sinai, mothers to be can take comfort in the knowledge that they will receive the highest level of care. Every mother and baby is special to them and the new mothers give birth in beautifully decorated private labour-delivery-recovery rooms.
These rooms furnished in soft colours, recessed lighting and coordinated bedding and drapery provide the mother to be with a sense of home. The special touches, including full-sized tubs for relaxation during labour and comfortable birthing beds also add to the mother's comfort and all these come at a price of between USD 2,800 to USD 4,000 a night. Yes you read that right!!
Nathalie Koah had her baby around the 12th of October and left the hospital around the 17th of October (according to her posts), for a 5 five night's stay at this facility brings her maternity room bill only to a cost of between USD 14,000 to USD 20,000.
Ms Koah joins a list of high profile celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Victoria Beckham, Kate Hudson, Penelope Cruz, Kourtney Kardashian and Jessica Simpson to name but a few to have their babies at this hospital.

THE 2004 GALLETTA'S BOX STOCK GAS KARTING LEAGUE SEASON
The green flag drops on the 2004 Galletta's Klassic 100!
During the 2004 season, we lost some good drivers who inexplicably quit mid-way, then gained some good drivers who joined up soon after. For most of the regular season, a batch of rookies–led by Dan Murdock and Ed Maynes–picked things up fast and looked forward to many more seasons of great racing ahead. We also had a couple of drivers try something we had never had before! Their own karts! A passionate rookie racer named Mark Miller brought his own kart with an OHV motor on it (all of our motors had been 5hp Briggs & Stratton Flatheads with no race mods done, only maintenance), while another rookie named Ed Maynes brought his own kart as well, but he stuck with the script of 5hp flathead. Concerns were raised when the OHV motor had more power than the Galletta's flatheads out of the box, and almost all of the rest of the 5 hp drivers preferred we stuck with the same motor and not mess with a mixed motor class.
Then there was the Klassic, which was close and competitive, and our biggest to date, with every kart again filled! Matt Stevens went in as points leader, and Chris Stevens tried to catch him, but had to recover from motor valve problems and jump into his old kart (the Galletta's #5), leaving Ed Maynes and Matt Stevens battling it out for Klassic supremacy. Ed was impressive, but overly ambitious, as he attempted to not just lead every lap, but LAP everyone within the 1st 20 laps! However, on a dirt track that ruts up as the race goes on and a homemade kart, his plan failed when a caution came out, he lost his lead AND his momentum when his steering column broke, leaving Matt Stevens effortlessly coasting to another Klassic and Track Championship sweep in his Galletta' s #3 kart. More…
YouTube Video Footage from the 2004 Klassic
The 2004 season was filled with a lot of drivers and action – 48 drivers raced in 38 features w/8 winners in 2004.
For the 1st time, visitors started bringing their own karts to our arrive-&-drive races! Here's some Klassic footage.
The 9th Annual Galletta's Go-Karts Klassic 100 from 2004 DVD:
This disc contains the Galletta's Go-Kart Klassic Championship 100 from September 26th, 2004! Includes bonus coverage from other races in 2004 and/or some footage from other years.
Price $7. Free if you've turned your ad blocker off.
On a sad note, this race wound up being the very last for a very promising driver. Dan Murdock died in the karting off-season in a tragic snowmobile accident. He was a smart, talented, well-mannered, and exceptionally nice young man who loved our racing club, and all of us at Galletta's miss him dearly. We have few doubts that he probably would have still been racing with us to this day, as he loved the racing here as much as we loved racing with him. He was named the 2004 Rookie-of-the-Year (a title he shared with Ed Maynes; see more here), and the Summer 2004 Visiting Points Champion. We named the 2005 Galletta's Klassic the The Dan Murdock Memorial in his honor. On that day, we all felt like he was watching us from heaven. God bless.

Notes: As stated on the previous page, we had our biggest racing season to date, including the first time that other people started bringing their own karts to the show to make for even bigger and more exciting races than ever before. One rookie driver, however, did bring a bigger motor (a 5.5hp OHV kart), which had to be banned for the remainder of the 2004 season because the not one of the box stock 5hp flatheads could not defeat its extra horsepower, no matter the weight or experience differences. The driver was invited back to race with a flathead 5hp, but he declined. He came back in 2005 with a 6.5hp OHV, and started the only truly controversial and argumentative portion of Galletta's Karting History. This, however, started the most disputed in history between 2004-2008, as documented here andhere. Again, points are scored via length of race, so some people who raced only 2-5 regular races may have scored less points than those who ran one big race [and every year, the Galletta's Klassic is the biggest, ranging from 80-100 laps (in the 1990's) to 100-200 laps (in 2000's), so if you want to score big, then come to that race!].
Fall '04 Bonus Point Series Races: Several exhibition races were ran in the Fall and early Winter 2004. Due to school, some of the Summer regulars cold not attend, so we counted these races as a second season, or an addendum separate from the Summer series, which traditionally begins with the first Galletta's race of the year and ends with the Galletta's Klassic Championship Race. Matt, Chris and Ed divided the wins of these 2nd season races. The Fall '04 races saw the debut of the Wild Woolly Mammoth Werewolf, Flying-Flippin-Fred Collins, who's wild-man racing style, loud noises, gestures and comical wrecks led to a new era of Galletta's Karting. [Also, because of a lack of available scorekeepers, and the fact that only the top three finishing positions were known, some drivers were scored with an average of 96 points per race. The top two or three in each race were recorded successfully every time. If there are any errors here, please let me know. Also, this section may be revised in the future if the tapes are located and re-scored properly; but, IMO, it really isn't necessary. All of the points series on this page, plus the totals of every year of Galletta's Super Yard Karting Speedway, are combined into an All-Time Points list found on this page.]

In 2015, the 193 United Nations (UN) Member States adopted 17 global Sustainable Development Goals1 (SDGs). The SDGs cover a broad set of challenges such as economic inclusion, diminishing natural resources, geopolitical instability, environmental degradation and the multi-faceted impacts of climate change. They define the agenda for inclusive economic growth through to 2030 and were developed with inputs from business, academia and nonprofit organisations globally.
The SDGs provide a universal and visionary framework to address the challenges of global cooperation and action, bringing stakeholders together to proactively address these challenges. But they are also complex and interconnected, and could be daunting for companies trying to understand the potential impacts, dependencies and opportunities when considering the SDGs.
Business will play a critical role in achieving the SDGs. Many companies have been working to address environmental, social and economic issues and leading companies have begun to recognize that they may best address the complex sustainability challenges by scaling up their efforts through collaboration with peers, industry and sector organizations, customers, governments, nonprofit organizations and society.

rectangular fin
Surface geometry effect on thermal boundary layer The heat transfer rate increases by using special fin geometry. The improved fin geometry will provide better heat transfer with less size.
The fins around the cylinder head of a reciprocating engine, which improve the normal cooling action. The fins increase the area of the cylinder and thus provide for greater heat transfer.
The fins enhance the heat transfer rate from a surface by exposing larger surface area to convection. The fins are used on the surface where the heat transfer Coefficient is very low. Total heat produced by the combustion of charge in the engine cylinder may not convert into useful power at the crankshaft.
Fish Fins. Fins are one of the most distinctive features of a fish and appear in several different forms.
Dorsal Fins.
Tail Fin or Caudal fin.
Ventral or Pelvic Fins.
Anal Fin.
Pectoral Fin.
Finlets or Scutes.
The different types of fin geometries used in an IC engine are Rectangular fins, Triangular fins, Trapezoidal fins and Pin fins as shown in figure 1.
Fins typically function as foils that produce lift or thrust, or provide the ability to steer or stabilize motion while traveling in water, air, or other fluids. Fins are also used to increase surface areas for heat transfer purposes, or simply as ornamentation. Fins first evolved on fish as a means of locomotion.
They are either single fins along the centerline of the fish, such as the dorsal (back) fins, caudal (tail) fin and anal fin, or paired fins, which include the pectoral (chest) and pelvic (hip) fins.
The Latin root word fin means an 'end,' as in a 'boundary' or 'limit. ' Some common English vocabulary words that come from this Latin root word include final, finish, and definition.
1 : any of the thin parts that stick out from the body of a water animal and especially a fish and are used in moving or guiding the body through the water. 2 : something shaped like an animal's fin the fins of a missile.
A fin is a plate or other object which is attached to a surface in order to improve the flow of heat. The use of fins is recognized as an effective method of increasing the heat transfer from a surface.
Fin is a French term meaning the end or finish. An example of fin is the end of a French movie. A five-dollar bill.
The top fins are called dorsal fins. If there are two dorsal fins, the one nearest the head is called the first dorsal fin and the one behind it is the second dorsal fin. The tail fin is called the caudal fin. Pectoral and pelvic fins come in pairs. Dorsal, anal, and caudal fins are single.
Fin is for Five. Give your grandparents a great surprise by calling a $5 bill a "fin". This was the dubbed nickname for the note in the 19th and early 20th century; a name that comes from the German/Yiddish language. In Yiddish, "fin" means "five".
Here are the eight types of fish fins:
Dorsal fins are found on the back of the fish.
Caudal fins are also known as tail fins.
Anal fins are on the ventral (bottom) surface of the fish, behind the anus.
Pectoral fins are located on each side of the fish, around where the head meets the body.
The loss of a dorsal fin will likely impair the shark's ability to catch prey at high speed but their ability to forage for injured prey probably allows them to survive," Mumby told Forbes.
While many species of sharks are protected under international law, making them illegal to hunt, fish, or kill, other species are still legal to harvest. You can also learn how to protect yourself from sharks if you find yourself in the water with them.
According to some estimates, 100 million sharks from a variety of species may be killed annually, mostly to feed China's demand for shark fin soup, scientists say. Historically most fins have gone to southern China, where the soup is a popular wedding dish.
ISAF confirmed 57 unprovoked shark bites on humans and 39 provoked bites. "Unprovoked attacks" are defined as incidents in which an attack on a live human occurs in the shark's natural habitat with no human provocation of the shark….Florida had most unprovoked bites in U.S.

Is a hung parliament good for science?

With a lot to lose from Brexit, the moderating force of a hung parliament could be good for science, say the Campaign for Science and Engineering as they launch their vision for UK science and engineering today.
With a lot to lose from Brexit, the moderating force of a hung parliament could be good for science, say the Campaign for Science and Engineering as they launch their vision for UK science and engineering.
The Campaign for Science and Engineering (CaSE) has set out six priority areas for the new Government which include education, immigration, collaboration and regulation.
Dr Sarah Main, CaSE Executive Director, said: " Science has a lot to lose from a hard Brexit. So the prospect of a minority Government yielding a softer Brexit is likely to appeal to science leaders who have been pushing to retain a range of EU benefits. But confidence and certainty is key, and Parliament will need to work together to deliver that confidence, to support our scientific businesses and academia in delivering benefits to the economy and society."
CaSE is calling on the Government to cultivate an environment where both science and engineering will thrive. Dr Main said: "CaSE has set out today its priorities for the new Government in six key policy areas. We will work with the new Government, in whatever form it takes, to ensure that the UK's strength in science, and the Government's investment, brings benefits across the UK."
The vision and priorities for the new Government can be seen here.
Following the news that the Conservatives will form a government with the Democratic Unionist Party, trade organisations have responded. CEO of the UK BioIndustry Association (BIA), Steve Bates, said: "The election has not delivered a Parliamentary majority for a clear way forward on Brexit but both the main parties, as well as the DUP, were clear in the campaign and in their manifestos on the desire to turn the UK into the most innovative country in the world. Our sector is key to taking the UK's outstanding science base and translating it into economic jobs and growth. Measures to support this goal should attract broad support in the new Parliament."
The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) reacted to the news by declaring their intentions to work with the new Government to ensure that Brexit negotiations include the pharmaceutical industry. CEO, Mike Thompson, said: "The Government can create the best possible environment for the pharmaceutical industry by securing an NHS that embraces innovation as the route to greater productivity and sustainability; by delivering a pro-business agenda to create real opportunities for growth in jobs and economic activity; and by negotiating a Brexit deal that prioritises patients and public health."

The PestPartners℠ 365 Program makes it easy for businesses of any size to save. All year long.
See how easily you can save all year long.
Register or login to easily calculate your estimated savings. Then export, email or print your order for maximum convenience.
"I think it's innovative of Syngenta to come up with a completely different program [with PestPartners 365]. During the off-season, I had time to study, decide and make sure the program worked from a business standpoint. I didn't have to waste my time figuring out a lot of variables and a lot of conditions during the most hectic time of the year. The entire process is simple and easy to use. We take advantage of the smart timing and it has worked very well for us."
"Syngenta has really gotten on board with understanding what we need in the field. They're more in tune with the needs of the pest control operator, and they understand our needs and our day-to-day operations. They really listen and work to accommodate your needs. The PestPartners 365 Program is a perfect example of the commitment of Syngenta to the industry."
"The online worksheets and calculators were fairly simple. It's all about going to the next tier as far as saving money goes. As guys start getting their checks, they'll say wow, I got my check from Syngenta. And everyone will say, well, how'd you get one? I'm going to be looking at Syngenta products at the end of the year because I'll also get those rebates back."

Industry welcomes Government's new land strategy
The Property Council of Australia has welcomed the release of the Queensland Government's new strategy to put surplus and underutilized government-owned land to better work for the state's economy and communities.
Property Council Queensland Executive Director, Chris Mountford, said that the Advancing our cities and regions strategy sends a clear signal to the private sector that the Government is serious about using its land holdings to better catalyze economic activity and urban renewal projects across the state.
"The new strategy makes a very bold statement that the Queensland Government is ready and willing to partner with the private sector to transform surplus government land holdings into exciting new development projects. This will not only create jobs, and boost economic activity but generate exciting new urban spaces for local communities," Mr Mountford said.
The Advancing our cities and regions strategy will see Economic Development Queensland lead the search within the State Government to identify surplus land parcels for redevelopment and renewal across eight designated zones.
"The Government's new approach appears to be an open invitation for the property sector to bring forward innovative urban renewal opportunities up and down the state," Mr Mountford said.
"From Cross River Rail related development, to regional revitalization projects, there is a lot of economic and community potential in this new approach."
"Land parcels currently growing weeds will be put to good use, creating jobs and economic activity."
"This initiative is a significant and positive shift in thinking about how surplus and underutilized government land can be used strategically by the State Government. It's a move away from piecemeal land sales to a coordinated and concerted approach to place-making."
"The property industry will be looking to this initiative as a catalyst for significant investment."
"Putting idle property holdings to better use makes perfect fiscal sense for the Queensland Government at this point in time."
"This announcement is a win for taxpayers, a win for employment and a big win for local communities."

I'm going to go scroll back down to where our original ternary operator was. So the goal of this particular ternary operator is to populate a form input with a value that the user inserted. So you see search_phrase here but then in the form which we're about to look at we see that the value of this input is search_phrase.
So as a user inputs something, we want to show that back in that search form as the form gets refreshed. Now, in our previous example, we set that variable that gets used down here to nothing at the very top of the page, and then we replaced that value later in a code if somebody actually submits the form. In this case, we're doing the same thing, but we're doing it all on one line with ternary operator.
So we're checking to see if the user submitted the form and there's some value for the search input which is called phrase. If it's set, then we're going to set the value of the search_phrase variable to the phrase that got submitted via the form. If it's not set, we're just going to initialize the variable by setting its value to empty.
So the first time that this form is built, search_phrase will be empty. In this next section, what we're doing is specifying the data file that includes the people data that we're going to be using. It's in a file called data dot txt.


Keynote speaker Scott Burton, a comedian and cancer survivor, entertained a full house at the sixth annual Survivorship Program seminar.
More than 200 cancer survivors, family members and friends attended "Moving Beyond Cancer to Wellness," the annual seminar of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center Survivorship Program held earlier this month.
Comedian and cancer survivor Scott Burton, the keynote presenter, joked and juggled for attendees, offering a sometimes whimsical view of survivorship.
Survivorship Program co-director Dr. Scott Baker, who also heads the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance Survivorship Clinic, welcomed attendees and directed them to expert-led breakout sessions. Faculty and staff from the Center, SCCA and other institutions presented seminars tailored for survivors on post-treatment fatigue and energy; memory and cognitive function; exercise and nutrition; complementary and alternative medicine; relationships and sexuality; caregiving; lymphedema; insurance rights and more.
Testament to its life-affirming and empowering message, the event generates overwhelmingly positive evaluations from attendees each year. "Very useful information and very positive approach to moving forward and healing," said one 2012 attendee.

Quintype brings 2 coolest features on the table!
A Content Management System(CMS) is every publisher/writer/author's Guardian Angel!
Keeping in mind the power of the internet, a CMS is designed to adapt and evolve as per the modern technological advancement.
But in today's era, how do you guarantee that the one you are using or rely on is the best? With plentiful CMSs rising to prominence, picking the right one as the best fit for your business can be tricky sometimes.
However, choosing the one with the latest technologies as well as time saving features built in, can help publishers and content creators have an easy journey.
Quintype, a modern day CMS platform, provides this feature to depict your story in the form of cards. These cards contain different types of story elements required, like an images, quotes, tables, etc., just what your story needs!
Cardification is a totally new methodology targeted towards the mobile first consumption of news. A minimised chunk of content has been noted to have higher engagement and thus, Quintype provides you with a feature to organically split your stories into multiple cards.
The fact that stories and elements can be created in the form of cards give the flexibility to modify and beautify individual card to grab a reader's attention. In addition to that, every single element in a card can be designed the way you want it to look like.
Cardification can help you with the strategic placement of ads. You can choose where you want your ad to be displayed, between the cards.
For example, the ads mainly show up at designated locations. But using the cardified system, you can define the placement of the ads, it can be either in between two cards, or at the end of the last card, or before the first card, anything as per your ad target.
A card can contain different story elements like an image, video, text, etc. But an individual card can be identified, targeted and displayed on the page just the way you want.
For example, you can set an image of one card as a parallax image ie. to keep the image constant in the background while the text scrolls over it. You could also fetch an element from the 'Nth' card of a story to be specially featured in the article etc.
In short, varieties can be attained by identifying the cards and coding them to the design as per your wish!
This is an awesome feature which allows a user to share a card explicitly.
For example, if a card consists of a quote, then using this feature, you can share the card with the quote without losing context by just sharing the article alone. Similarly, if you wish to make an image shareable, place it in a card and enable the option of card sharing.
This cool feature, in short, gives your reader's the choice to pick and share pieces which might have grabbed their attention the most to the other social media channels.
These are some of the interesting new features available with our 'Cardification' of the content you write.
We bring to you the second most interesting feature which is on offer. We built our CMS in such a way that any publisher or content creator spends minimal time on researching and installing plugins. Plugins basically enables a particular task that you wish to implement on a page, but our CMS has everything built in. You get every feature, every element at a single click without wasting your precious time in complicated research.
If you wish to integrate a third party service to your content, just let us know so that we can help you with the integration. In case, you have a team of coders who can execute the task for you, then the integration can also be done at your end.
Then get in touch with us now and explore our new features.


I've been playing around with iCash, deciding if it's the software for me, and I'm wondering if someone could lend a little advice. I'm a little confused about the relationship between manually entering transactions vs. importing a transaction file (.csv, etc.) from my bank online.
Basically, I'll only be importing these .csv (or other) files once a month, but at the same time I'll also be manually entering transactions, etc. throughout the month (to keep on budget, etc.).
My question is, how does the relationship work between manually entering transactions and such vs. importing the data?
What I mean is, how do I go about "sorting" duplicate transactions as a result of my adding them manually throughout the month, and then the duplicates that would appear as a result the monthly importing of a downloaded transaction file?
Another related question/example would be, say I were to manually enter a transfer of $500 from my chequing account into my savings account. My savings account balance would then be $500. But, when I import the .CSV file I download for that account at the end of the month, the account balance would actually be $501 because the account incurred an interest of $1.
How do I sort this out in iCash because I'd have a manual transaction from my chequing to savings account for $500 and the account balance for the savings account would be $500, but when I import the .CSV file for the savings account, the balance is actually $501 because of the interest, plus I'd have two entries of $500 being transfered from chequing into savings.
There is no relation at all. You can add transactions manually and/or thru imports, it doesn't matter. However the quality of the data you get from a bank import is rather incomplete thus sometimes it requires some editing. I personally enter all my transactions manually because I am also using iCash as a database of all the stuff I purchase. After 5 years of use I am able to find a lot of info, not just numbers.
yea, see, that's kinda the problem for me because i do a lot of manual transactions and such in iCash, but at the same time, there's still small things i miss (like when i take $10 out at the variety store or something), and importing transactions from my bank "make up" for the forgotten transactions throughout the month.
so, basically, i'm looking for some way to sort through the manual vs. imported transactions so i don't have duplicate transactions at the end of each month?

Q: DataTable 1.10, Column.render usage I'm having trouble understanding the different usage alternatives of the DataTable option columns.render
As the docs state, the render option can be specified as a function (this is the alternative that I use), an object or a string.
In the last two cases, I can't make it work.
In my case, I have a data source like the following:
[
    {
      id_sol: "10",
      id_box: "1",
      local: "8000",
      localDesc: "Testing",
      solic: null,
      ts: "09/01/2016 00:00",
      tipoDesc: "Rollo Testigo"
    }
]

(An array of several objects with the above structure)
What I wanted to do is render localDesc in the column which corresponds to local. I can do this using the function alternative for render, but if I do:
columns: [
        {data:"local",
            render: "localDesc"
        },
        ...
    ]

It doesn't work. DataTables throws a "Requested unknown parameter 'local' for row 0".
What am I doing wrong? Is there something I didn't fully grasp about the render option?

A: you need to provide a function to render, within which you have access to data, type, row, meta, what you probably need to something like this:
"render": function(data, type, row, meta){
    return row.localDesc;
}

A well dressed card never leaves the house without a few good accessories! On this card I used a button, bling, twine and washi tape. I rarely make a card without at least one of these four elements. But the hardest working accessory I use is one I never really want you to see on my cards - the stampin' dimensional! The gingham panel is popped up with dimensionals along with the main flower. Definitely completes the look of the card - like any good accessory should!
I LOVE it, Linda! The colors are so bright and cheery, and I love the variety of accessories you used. I have to agree with you on the Dimensionals; I rarely make a card without one! Thanks for joining us at SUO Challenges!
What great colors. I agree about Dimensionals, thye add just the right pop!
These are absolutely fabulous colors - and all the accessories are just perfect accents! Thanks so much for joining the SUO Challenge this week!
Linda, I agree with the others! What a fun, delightful card!! Love all of the different accessories you have incorporated into this fabulous design and the Stampin' Dimensionals are a must have item :-) Thanks again for sharing with us at SUO Challenges!
Cute, cute, cute! I just love this! I need to use my washi more.....but my cards are like yours...they never leave home without a couple of dimensionals!
Linda LOVE this beauty for sure! I really love how you used the washi tape. I haven't even opened mine yet.
Just returned from a weekend at the cottage... boating and tubing with the grandkids! I'm exhausted! It's only week one of three!
This is adorable! I love how you used the Washi tape. I'm with you on the Stampin' Dimensionals, love them!
I completely agree, Linda! I use Stampin' Dimensionals on every single card I make...just can't help it! LOVE your bright color card and that DSP is perfect with that set! Thanks for playing along with the accessory challenge this time on SUO Challenges!
What a GREAT card!!! So clean and classy!!

Despite uncertainty, Huntersville continues to explore charter school options
By Brett Baldeck, FOX 46 Charlotte
HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. (FOX 46 CHARLOTTE) - Huntersville is continuing to explore the option of creating a charter school separate from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools.
The proposal is all possible thanks to a bill that passed up in Raleigh last year. Four area towns have the ability to create their own charter school separate from CMS. Even with that bill it still remains uncertain if it is even possible.
The small commission in Huntersville is still exploring what would happen if the town created their own stand alone charter school.
Commissioners say the goal is to prevent overcrowding at suburban schools within Mecklenburg County.
"Can we eliminate the overcrowding with the growth projections here? That's a big ask," said Carrie Warren, a commission member and parent of four kids in CMS.
That's just one of the hurdles Huntersville is facing and the reason the commission exists.
Mint Hill, Cornelius, Matthews and Huntersville all have the option to create charter schools thanks to a bill passed last year. Now, some leaders are proposing a repeal of that bill, which is one of the biggest problems plaguing the Huntersville group right now.
"514 could be repealed, but there is also a conversation about putting a cap on the number of charter schools in the state. So either of those could kill the opportunity to create a municipal charter," said Warren.
The commission says they plan to continue their work even though there is uncertainty. The next meeting is next week.

Where Should I go: Mar del Plata or Montevideo?
Mar del Plata is found only 404 km southeast of the city of Buenos Aires, on the Atlantic coast. Today Mar Del Plata is Argentina's most well known beach resort. It has successfully married the two worlds of beach and city into a fun, cosmopolitan urban center with the presence of highly developed tourist infrastructure. Founded in 1874, Mar del Plata was at first mainly an industrial and commercial center before becoming a vacation destination for Argentinians. For a peaceful trip and intimate oceanfront promenades, avoid visiting Mar del Plata during summer time, as the gorgeous arced coastline will be crawling with visitors. But the city is more than just beaches. It also offers some culture, lively nightlife, and great food.
As the morning sun tinges the calm waters of the Rio de la Plata with a golden hue, the Rambla and its city awakens to life with new adventures for those near and far. From tanning on the luxurious beaches to peering into Uruguayan history at local museums, one can be far from bored while staying in Montevideo.

Less than 20 years ago, Mira Beck lived in the Czech Republic and managed a MacDonald's in Prague. He made what was considered a good salary…$2000 a year. Imagine his excitement when he found an amazing job opportunity in the US.
A group of old oil towers needed to be taken apart. It was anticipated that the project would take 6 months and the company was willing to offer $6,000 – $8,000 of compensation for all qualified applicants. One of the qualifications was the ability to make a deposit of $3,000 before beginning work.
Mira and his dad talked it over and his dad decided he would sell the family's only asset, their car, to raise the $3,000. With the $3,000 in his pocket, and an extra $200 his dad gave him "just in case", Mira arrived in New York City on Thanksgiving Day.
After meeting with the job officials in the Empire State Building, and making his $3,000 deposit; Mira waited for the training day. As you may have already guessed, that training day never arrived. It was then that Mira realized the whole thing was a scam, and he would never see the $3,000 again.
Making quick calculations Mira realized that if he went back to Czech and found work it would be about 10 years before he would be able to repay the $3,000 his dad had given him. Things looked bad.
"If I have to sleep under a tree, it might as well be a palm tree!" Mira declared. Using his "just in case" money, he purchased a Greyhound bus ticket, and went to Tampa, FL.
He found a job that paid $5.50 per hour and went to work. He worked and saved. In a very short time he bought a bicycle, then a car. He also started school so he could learn to speak English.
From there he went on to college in St. Petersburg, graduating with a degree in Television and Video Production. As soon as he got out of college he started Beck Audio Visual Services, a successful company that specializes in High Quality Video Production.
Mira is currently expanding his business, helping business owners around the country create quality video materials to better reach their target audiences. When you come to the Wealth Summit in September, be sure to look for Mira. You'll find him doing an amazing job of running our sound, lights and capturing the event on recording.
So what about Mira's dad and the $3,000? Mira repaid his dad long ago, and he makes frequent trips to Czech to visit his family…taking his son, Mira, and daughter, Adela along with him.
Mira makes a point to take a moment on Thanksgiving Day just to be grateful for an adversity that helped him to push forward to greater success.

Now Reading: Houston Planned Parenthood Joins Organized Crime Suit Against Anti-Abortion Group
Houston Planned Parenthood Joins Organized Crime Suit Against Anti-Abortion Group
Planned Parenthood Houston has joined a federal organized crime suit against the Center for Medical Progress, an anti-abortion group founded by David Daleiden, pictured here at a rally against legal abortion in Washington, D.C. American Life League/Flickr/Creative Commons
Alexa Garcia-Ditta Mar 24, 2016, 1:13 pm CST
Houston's Planned Parenthood affiliate has joined a federal lawsuit against the Center for Medical Progress (CMP), the anti-abortion group behind the secretly recorded, deceptively edited videos purporting to show the health care provider illegally profiting from fetal tissue donations.
The federal suit, originally filed in January by Planned Parenthood Federation of America and some Colorado Planned Parenthood affiliates, alleges that CMP ringleader David Daleiden and other anti-abortion activists violated a federal organized crime law, known as the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. The California-based suit also alleges CMP and its activists committed fraud, trespassed on private property, illegally and secretly recorded footage and invaded the privacy of Planned Parenthood employees.
One of the 11 videos released by CMP was filmed at Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast (PPGC) in Houston, prompting the organization to join the suit.
CMP activists "used false identities to enter sensitive clinical areas, secretly and maliciously videotaping without concern for patient privacy or safety," according to a PPGC statement.
CMP publicly released the first of its videos in July 2015, prompting a slew of state and federal investigations into the provider's fetal tissue donation practices. So far, no state, including Texas, has turned up any wrongdoing. The Harris County DA instead indicted Daleiden and Sandra Susan Merritt, another CMP activist, in January on felony charges of tampering with government documents.
"Extreme anti-abortion politicians who want to ban abortion have invoked these lies to fuel their efforts to pass extreme restrictions on access to reproductive health care," said Melaney Linton, president of PPGC, in a statement. "Even after David Daleiden has been indicted on a felony charge and these videos have been thoroughly discredited, women are still facing devastating consequences from these smear videos. These extreme anti-abortion activists acted illegally and then spread lies about our care."
CMP activists have defended their actions as "investigative journalism" and an exercise of their First Amendment rights. In a January statement responding to the lawsuit, CMP called the allegations "frivolous."
Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast is one of 10 plaintiffs in the federal lawsuit, which also argues that CMP used fraudulent government IDs and lied when creating a nonprofit fetal tissue procurement company called Biomax.
Since the videos were released, Texas has launched three separate investigations into Planned Parenthood. In July, lawmakers held a four-hour legislative hearing during which Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton called abortion a "true abomination" that should be illegal.
The videos also prompted Texas to boot the health care provider from the joint federal-state Medicaid program, which provides family planning and other preventive health care services to low-income women. Texas Democratic lawmakers have said they also suspect that anti-Planned Parenthood sentiment in the highest ranks of state government prompted Texas, in December, to pull a grant that had allowed PPGC to conduct HIV prevention and outreach work in southeast Texas for nearly 30 years.
Alexa Garcia-Ditta is a staff writer (and former intern) covering women's health, reproductive health and health care access.

CECIL HURT: Committee had little controversy picking top-four
Cecil Hurt Sports Editor
The College Football Playoff Selection Committee has finished its work. We know what they have done. We know what they didn't, sort of, although not exactly. Still, America, aside from a swath of dissatisfaction in Texas, is pleased.
So does that mean that my fairly steady drumbeat of dissatisfaction which began in August, when the bandwagon of people saying "What the heck?" was less crowded, was misguided?
Here is what I think about the Selection Committee after seeing it work in 2014.
Think of an umbrella. The shaft is bent, so it's hard to open. The dog has chewed a hole in the fabric. You only paid $7.99 for the umbrella to begin with. But you go outside carrying the umbrella and guess what? It's a beautiful sunny day.
The Selection Committee is that umbrella.
Everything worked fine or, more precisely, it didn't have to work at all. My August belief that the committee would reward four conferences, geographically balancing the field and giving every region a juice box, was exactly what happened. But the fact is, everyone deserves a juice box this time around. If I had been independently picking the four teams on Sunday, I would have picked Alabama, Oregon, Florida State and Ohio State, too. It is well worth mentioning the old, abandoned BCS formula would also have chosen those four teams, albeit in slightly different order. Most sensible people had that order, and while I acknowledge the pain that TCU and Baylor fans must feel, I don't accept their arguments for inclusion. That isn't based on the Big XII championship snafu, but on their bodies of work.
So everyone is basking in the sunshine, except for the people griping about how the weekly polls didn't matter. Since I spent every Tuesday night for the past two months tweeting "IT DOESN'T MATTER" in all capital letters, except for those subtle weeks when I tweeted pictures of a dog-and-pony show, this did not come as a shock. People need to understand that the weekly show had no more bearing on the final results than "Scooby Doo" has on our nation's crime rate. It was just TV, nothing more.
Also, the criteria for picking teams did shift every week. But none of the most dubious criteria — conference champions (which was emphasized greatly, it seems), injury considerations, quality losses — ended up being a factor. It would have been nice to have some more confusion — say if Mississippi State had beaten Ole Miss — to serve as a test case, but we didn't. Still, a one-loss team without a conference championship in the future is going to need a lot of help. Like Dan Mullen, I don't think Mississippi State stood a chance, no matter how strong the SEC was perceived to be. The playoffs, it appears, are no country for runners-up. We also didn't end up with any two-loss conference champions. That also would have been interesting.
Bill Hancock, the CEO of the College Football Playoff and The Artist Formerly Known As Mr. BCS, met with the media in New York on Wednesday and proclaimed that "the plan worked." That doesn't clear up precisely what the plan was, but with a popular pair of semifinals, this is no time to rain on Bill's parade. As far as figuring out what would happen in a more complicated year, well, we will all get around to that later.

Q: How to use complex number "i" in C++ I am coding a simple DFT algorithm now and I want to use the complex number i in complex exponential. I saw somebody use #include<complex> and #include<cmath>, and then they used the overloaded symbol I such as exp(2*I) . But it seems it doesn't work in my visual studio compiler. So, can anyone give a simple example of using complex exponential? Thanks!

A: Another way is to use std::literals::complex_literals::operator""i after C++14:
#include <iostream>
#include <complex>

int main() {
    using namespace std::complex_literals;
    auto c = 1.0 + 3.0i;
    std::cout << "c = " << c << '\n';
}

Output:
c = (1,3)

A: Here is a short complete example:
#include <iostream>
#include <complex>
#include <cmath>

using namespace std;
typedef complex<double> dcomp;

int main() {
  dcomp i;
  dcomp a;
  double pi;
  pi = 2 * asin(1);
  i = -1;
  i = sqrt(i);
  a = exp(pi*i) + 1.+0i;
  cout << "i is " << i << "and Euler was right: exp(i pi) + 1 = " << a << endl;
}

Tested with g++

A: You can find details here
A simple approach would be
#include <complex>

using std::complex;
const double pi = 3.1415;
void foo()
{
    complex<double> val(polar(1, pi/2.0); Create a complex from its olar representation
}

A: I get this question recently as well and find a easy way for future reader:
Just use <complex> library like the following
#include <iostream>
#include <complex>
using namespace std ;

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    const   complex<double> i(0.0,1.0);
    cout << i << endl ;

    return(0) ;
}

A: The following code in  C++ shows a macro for implementing the imaginary number j.  It is well known that in programming the terms i and j are commonly used as counter variables.  I instead use the capital letter J to represent the imaginary number to avoid any confusion.
/ * dcomplex.h
#ifndef DCOMPLEX_H_
#define DCOMPLEX_H_
#define J dcomplex(0.0,1.0)
typedef std::complex<double> dcomplex;
#endif /* DCOMPLEX_H_ */

Using this macro, the imaginary number J [together with the complex library] can be used in the main code.  An example of its use is shown below:
....
....
#include <complex>
#include "dcomplex.h"

....
....
 tmp = tmp + t[n]*exp( (2.0*PI*(double)n*(double)l/(double)tab_size)*J );
....

....
where tmp, t[n] are variables of a complex type, and J is the imaginary number. The variables n, l, and tab_size are of an integer type. The constant PI is the well known constant 3.14... The function exp() is overloaded to handled complex numbers.  [n.b. this code sample is part of a simple DFT]
Using this macro, the code is more readable..

A: pi, being an irrational number, cannot be exactly represented by a double.  cos of an inexact approximation of pi is likely to yield a result which is close to but perhaps not exactly 1.  Likewise sin of an inexact approximation of an inexact approximation of pi is like to result in a number is has a very small magnitude that is perhaps not exactly 0.  Why not just define I to be std::complex(0.0, 1.0) and avoid the gratuitous inexactness.
