Dr. Justin Marchegiani: He-hey! Hey! Dr. J in the house. Evan, how are we doing today, man?
Evan Brand: Hey, man. I'm doing great. Happy Monday to you.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Happy Monday to you. How was your weekend?
Evan Brand: It was great! Uh, actually, I'm feeling much better. I donated some blood again, which I was telling you off air, and my vision, which I thought was caused from overuse of looking at computer screens— my vision was kind of wonky—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yup.
Evan Brand: My vision literally cleared up, like right after donating blood. So, this is very interesting because you find nothing in the literature about vision and high Iron. At least maybe I just— unless I missed the research— I didn't find anything. But when I got the blood out of my body, "Boom!" My vision was cleared. [crosstalk] Do you have any explanation—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: I know a podcast on this recently too with elevations in Iron. I think back in May, we did a nice podcast on this— how that can create some oxidation issues. It could have been some kind of oxidation reaction. It could have been just maybe putting some stress on your antioxidant reserves. It's hard to say, but I think it's good everyone get their Iron levels checked. It's something that I've been putting off. Uhm— I just try to do like at least two in-depth blood tests a year, and you know that involves a lot of vials. And then maybe one other test that involves blood like a micronutrient panel. That may be enough like three good times a year. I know we talked about with you kind of on the Phlebotomy side. That's just doing something at least once a quarter.
Evan Brand: Yeah, and for people that are— you know, for women, specifically that are menstruating, this probably not an issue that's gonna happen but we do have quite a bit of male listeners too. So if you guys are having any type of symptoms that are just not making sense, run that Iron panel because I was also noticing my mental energy was lower.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Totally.
Evan Brand: and— and when I left the Red Cross, my mental energy had skyrocketed. So, Iron, energy levels, uh— in terms of sleep, grogginess, mood— it could all be related to Iron overload, and I suspect more people have Iron overload. Males; suspect Iron overload, and— and most people don't have a clue.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: One hundred percent. Well, let's dig in here. We got a couple of questions here. One from Amy. Uh— what can man and woman do for hair loss? Well, first thing, for both sexes, is make sure your gut function's doing well because if we're not absorbing good fats and good proteins, we're not gonna have the building blocks to make our healthy hair. That's number one. Number two on the female side, and even the male side, is make sure thyroid function is optimal. I would say, you know, TSH, below two and a half. Your free T3 levels in the at least upper 50% range, free T3 wise, is adequate. That's—
Evan Brand: So what would that be? You see like a 2.8—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Above 3.0. Above 3. A 3.0 or above, I think is adequate. Low th— You need thyroid hormone to help mature and grow the— the hair follicles. So, low thyroid hormone levels could potentially drive hair follicle loss. In men, you can also see increases of DHT can start Oxygen and blood flow to the hair follicles so that's why things like Arimidex had helped or you can do nal— Natural 5-alpha Reductase inhibitors like Selenium, Like Lycopene, Saw Palmetto, Pumpkin seed. This can kind of block a lot of that down. Now the question is why does a lot of that DHT increase— I mean, I would lean on inflammation. I would lean on Insulin-resistance. I would lean on genetic predisposition. So I would really just do your best to make sure inflammation's under control, and then just really increase some of those nutrients to help block that 5-alpha reductase compounds— Zinc, Selenium, uhm— Saw Palmetto, uhmmm— uh— Lycopene, Pumpkin seed. Those are helpful nutrients that you can do. And the female side, I would just say, really just dial in the thyroid, really dial in the digestion. Those are gonna be the first things I would look at.
Evan Brand: Yeah, and look for the antibodies, too. And— And you said that without saying it. I know it's in your brain but you didn't say it-
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Oh, yes.
Evan Brand: -which is, "Look at the antibodies," because almost every single woman that you see and almost every single woman that I see has some type of an autoimmune component to her thyroid, so just making sure you get those antibody levels down.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah, ni— fif— over 50% of thyroid issues are autoimmune, so when we talk about thyroid, autoimmune is already being plugged in as— as the big issue because that is gonna be the major mechanism. And we know gluten-sensitivity is a big part of that, so gluten can easily drive a lot of that. And if you just Google gluten or gluten issues or gluten sensitivity and to like Alopecia— Alopecia areata, which is an autoimmune condition with hair loss, not quite the same thing as like hair thinning. It's you literally have patches of hair come out, and that can actually be autoimmune-driven, and we know there's a gluten connection with Alopecia. Also, Yeast as well can potentially drive Alopecia and autoimmune stuff. O, anything that creates malabsorption in the gut, whether it's bacteria, parasites, yeast overgrowth— anything that lowers thyroid, whether it's lo— lower thyroid issue from a primary issue uh— with a pituitary, from stress, or whether it's an autoimmune issue, and then, of course, the DHT stuff on the guy side.
Evan Brand: Any infections— addressing infections— 'cause my [crosstalk] Reverse T3— Yeah. My— My reverse T3 was too high and a lot of it, I believe is my gut issues.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah, absolutely. Now, Gabe writes in, "Can Intermittent fasting help me absorb nutrition better? Heard it also calm inflammation. I'm dealing with malabsorption." I'll let you tackle that one first, Evan.
Evan Brand: Yeah. So, intermittent fasting. I mean, there's definitely some benefits. Now, if you're dealing with malabsorption though, then, we got to figure out why is that happening. So, the first step would be to get a GI Map Stool test and try to look for infections. I'd also look at getting the organic acids and try to find maybe a yeast or a bacterial overgrowth issue because if those guys are stealing your nutrients, I'm more worried about that than worried about whether the fasting would help you absorb better. It's like, "Okay. If you've got a bunch of these bugs, and every time you eat, they're trying to eat too, to me that's like the first priority." And I dealt with this firstly, which is why my fingernails still have the ridges on them 'cause I have now absorption issues for who knows— maybe fifteen years of my life. And in terms of calming inflammation, I mean, addressing the gut bugs will calm inflammation too. So, if you have H. pylori or some other bug, that's also gonna keep you inflamed, and no matter how much you fast, you're not gonna magically cure those bugs with fasting.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: No, you're not. Again, we'd had conversation with people off air about fasting. I mean, I see a lot of issues with patients that have hormonal imbalances, where they're very blood sugar sensitive. They go too long without eating, there's a lot of irritability, a lot of adrenal and blood sugar issues, so a lot of people I see on that side feel eating a little bit more frequently. And we try to lengthen it, you know, between meals a little bit longer and move into being able to Intermittent fast. You know, they're too weak, but most people benefit from intermittent fasting on the digestive side because they're just giving their digestive system a break. Maybe they're not eating the foods that will be aggravating it. And then that can kind of calms down the inflammation and then the gut works better for a period of time but it's not gonna fix the root issue. It's just giving it a break. It's kind of like if, you know, you didn't walk on your ankle for half the day, well, it may feel a little bit better in the last half of the day when you do because you gave it a little bit more time to rest if you will.
Evan Brand: Yep. So, I mean, it c— it could be part of a healing protocol but it's not the cure-all.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: No. It's not— It's not root causal. There's not— There's no magic in eating nothing. If that's the case, anyone that would be on the streets or homeless that didn't eat, you know, would have perfect health, and that's just not how it is. And I get that's an oversimplification but it's true.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: We actually need nutrients to run our pathways.
Evan Brand: We do.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Uhmm— Justin writes in, "Dr. J, any recommendations on helping recover from Eipstein Barr virus? Uh— I'm a big fan of medicinal mushrooms. I'm gonna— I'm gonna take some right now actually. Oh! I just finished it yesterday. But Reishi medicinal mushrooms are excellent.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Absolutely love that. Uhm— Longterm, I think Ashwagandha's wonderful or the product called Ashwagandha Supreme. I love it. I take it for capsules during the week. Maybe—
Evan Brand: You do—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: …stress.
Evan Brand: Do you do evening doses as well or do you just do Ashwagandha during the day?
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: If I'm stressed and I'm feeling like a little bit just like I had a long day with patients, I'm feeling really stressed, I'll do that maybe some GABA and Magnesium just to kind of chill out.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: But it can be helpful. It's great long-term immune support. It's great adrenal support, Cortisol modulation, and balancing good HPA Axis support. Also with that, we can do Silver. We can do Monolaurin. We can do the Reishi like I mentioned. That's excellent. We can do Cat's claw. Those are a couple— a really good support that could be done to help.
Evan Brand: Yeah. The Monolaurin's great. The Lauric acid formula comes from coconuts. I have one called Biofilm Buster that I use, and that one is a— is a potent antiviral. And you really turned me on to the Silver, so the Silver could be useful too. And then, you mentioned the Reishi. I'd say, any of the mushrooms too, but Reishi would be probably the go to. Cordyceps, Shiitake, Maitake-
Evan Brand: -could be helpful. And then Astragalus. I'm a huge fan of Astragalus. I love taking it. I take it almost everyday during the summer because of all the ticks here. I don't want to get Lyme. So I take three grams. I take seven capsules a day of Astragalus, and I have an organic source that I use, and that is helpful. To— you can't really get rid of the virus. You can just shut Epstein-barr down. That's kind of my understanding.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah. Totally. "Any knowledge and opinions on the health benefits of carbon-60?" Never heard of it.
Evan Brand: Yeah. I have. Yeah, so the Carbon-60— it's like this patented version of Olive oil. And—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Oh.
Evan Brand: -suppose to just be like this miracle cure, and everyone is taking it. Let me look and see if there was another 'cause I had heard there's another one that's different though. So that's one, and there's another one that's called C60, and it's something different. It's Avocado oil. And then there's another one. That's C60 Coconut oil. And—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah. I'm familiar with the like the MCT Oil. Like the— the Hexanoic acid. Like, you know, Dave Asprey has it in the Brain Octane. Other people have it as well, which is primarily used by the brain. I'm familiar with that. That has six Carbons on it for sure.
Evan Brand: So, for example, a 4-ounce bottle of this stuff is a hundred dollars.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: That's really expensive.
Evan Brand: And it says— It's a— It's an—a monomolecular pure C60 suspended in Avocado oil. I mean, look. Anytime that there's something promoted as like a Silver bullet like that, I just am a little bit skeptical. I've not personally taken it so I'm not gonna tell you that it's not awesome, but it says here. What they do, get this. It says, "Here's how we create C60. We use rods of elemental Carbon, vaporized by electricity in a Helium atmosphere. This method imitates the way C6— C60's made in the atmosphere of giant red stars."
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: That just sounds a little bit out there for me. [laughs]
Evan Brand: For a hundred bucks for 4-ounce bottle.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Oh, yeah. That sounds a little crazy. I would need a lot more of clinical feedback on people that have had amazing results. But I mean, if w— if we're just working on getting extra good carbons in there, good healthy fats— I mean, I think a good MCT Oil I think is a great way to go, but I'm not sure about this Carbon-60 thing.
Evan Brand: For a 16-ounce bottle, 370 dollars.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Crazy.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Crazy. Crazy.
Evan Brand: So, let's see. Let's see like before and after Lab results. Okay. It promises to do this with Mitochondria. Okay. here's before and after.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yes.
Evan Brand: Nothing else was done, except this supplement. Look at what it did to the mitochondria.
Evan Brand: Then I would be like, "Okay. It's a miracle."
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Exactly. Charlie writes in, "When doing the 201 CAR Test, will i negatively affect the test results if you walk to other rooms uh— to do waking sample? I mean, I would just try to follow the instructions as much as possible and not be doing a whole bunch of physical stress to check up your Cortisol.
Evan Brand: Yup..
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Try to be as stationary as possible.
Evan Brand: Yup. Uh— Do you want me to read this one from Gary?
Evan Brand: I'll read it for you.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah, go ahead.
Evan Brand: "I'm dealing with depression, etc. They tell me plant-based diet. Been doing it for four weeks; not much success. Any thoughts? I'm not going back on meds."
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah. The big problem is a lot of people need protein for helping brain chemistry and it's hard to get enough protein in a plant-based diet. It's specially hard to get a lot of protein when you're consuming a lot of carbohydrates along with it. And if you're on the Insulin-resistant side, that could drive up inflammation. A lot of the new medications used that are coming out down the pipeline for Depression, they're actually anti-inflammatory for the brain. 'Cause they understand that inflammation on the brain can drive mood disorders, so the best thing is an anti-inflammatory die. A lot of plant-based diets may have a lot of Lectins and Phytates and a lot of other antinutrients in it, and/or could just be really high in carbohydrates. If you're Insulin-resistant, that could be a problem. People that do best on a plant-based diet, typically, they're gonna be supplementing additional protein needed from Hemp or Pea or Rice. And then a lot of times, we'll be doing some B12. They may be doing a lot of good fat from Coconut and Olive and nuts and seeds. And they may be able to tolerate the carbs better, right? But it's really hard to do it adequately without some kind of a plant-based protein supplement. And they're probably doing DHEA, DHA algae support, uhm— fish oil support from algae instead. So that's kind of how you can do it right. I think it's easier to have the good animal proteins and animal fats in there 'cause they're— they're so heat stable, and they're so Protein-rich and fat-rich without all of the additional carbs with it. And we could still do a whole bunch of other plants we just try to choose healthy sources. And we prepare it in a way that makes it easier to digest and process.
Evan Brand: And I know we've done podcasts all on depression, so just go on Justin's site, justinhealth.com, or go on my site, evanbrand.com. Type in depression, you'll find entire hours dedicated to this. Also, I believe uh— Justin and I both have done a YouTube video— I know I have for sure— on Depression and some of the stuff that helped me 'cause I was depressed for a long time. So, just go like on YouTube, type in Depression, Just in Health or Evan Brand, you'll find the videos.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Totally. Cool. Let's keep on rolling. "Is there a supplement to help me fall asleep and stay asleep? I wake up every night, one to three times, and have uh— have trouble sleeping sometimes as well." Evan, what do you think.
Evan Brand: I mean, that's hard, right? There could be a million reasons why you can't fall asleep. What if you're checking your phone? You're probably looking at your phone on social media before bed, which is terrible idea. You're suppressing Melatonin. So it could be something that simple. It could be that your Cortisol's a little too e— elevated. It could be that you're having a blood sugar crisis in the middle of the night. Blood sugar's crashing and that's waking you up. It could be that your liver's overburdened. It could be that you— you know, you have too much light pollution in your bedroom, or you have dirty electricity in your bedroom, or your— your bedroom is too warm and you're restless because of it, or your bed sucks and it's too uncomfortable, or you have gut infections that are waking you up. You know what I mean? So this is like a huge kind of worms, and you're not gonna get the answer that quick. But is there a supplement that could help? Yeah, maybe. You could try like PharmaGABA. You could try Ashwagandha that Justin was just talking about, Reishi mushroom [crosstalk] could be helpful. Yeah, Phosphatidylserine is great, but you got to figure out the root cause 'cause something is like are going on, and those are just a few ideas to think about. So look into your gut. Look into your adrenals.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah. If there's— If it's an Anxiety issue, sometimes women that have lower Progesterone levels, that could be a problem too. So there's a potential— bunch of potential things there and it's different for each sex. So I mean, we have to know kind of male, female, menopausal, cycling whatever— That— That helps a lot too.
Evan Brand: Yeah. There was a follow-up from the same person here. "What is the reason why I wake up with sore legs? They feel heavy. Uh— I mean, and no exercise a day before." That could just be Mitochondria. What do you think?
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: It could be Mitochondrial stuff. I'd look at how much amino acids you're getting and just try to get some good mitochondrial support and some extra amino acids in and see. Uhm— I also want to know, what's your day like? Are you at a stand desk? Are you sitting all day? Are you— Are you seated all day? What does that stress look like? Uhm— It's really hard to say. Are you getting enough minerals? Could it be like some kind of a— a muscle cramping thing because of mineral issues? Really hard to say. And then, of course, anytime we gut issues, gut issues can cause any symptoms, so anytime I see like weird symptoms, I'm like, "Alright. Let's look at the gut. Let's look at infections. Let's look at potential autoimmunity through foods 'cause that can easily drive like kind of Fibromyalgia-like symptoms, which can cause those kinds of symptoms as well." So, yeah.
Evan Brand: I think we've got— you've got like,literally, one minute so let's-
Evan Brand: -try to hit one more.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Absolutely. "Any thoughts on Iodine for thyroid health, Lugol's, Iodoral, or Nasient?"
Evan Brand: Well—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: So, in general, like Nasient's a big thing. I think uhm— Dr. Edward Group at Global Healing Center pushes that one. I think the dose is reasonable. I'm not sure if it needs to be in this nasient form. Uh— A good Potassium Iodine/Iodide I think is fine. I have one called Iodine synergy that works great. I'm a big fan of number one, make sure thyroid inflammation and inflammation in the body is generally stabilized before you add Iodine in. I start lower at a couple hundred micrograms and work up slowly. I've seen more negative effects from going too high with Iodine than not, so I err on the side of going lower and tapering up slower with some of the Lugol's, maybe at 2-5 milligrams, which in my opinion is too high if you have it. You may just put a drop in— in and out and seven ounces of water and just do a quick sip once a day. In that way, you can only break it down to like one-seventh of the dose. But in general, I try to go slower, work it up, make sure there's adequate Selenium and other minerals present. Magnesium, Zinc— those kind of things. Good multi there. Good, rich diet and minerals before you go up. I'm always concerned about, you know, too high and exacerbating an autoimmune attack.
Evan Brand: Yeah. That's— That's what I was gonna say was that if there is autoimmunity, you got to be careful 'cause it can make it worse and we've seen the antibodies go up from people that went to a practitioner-
Evan Brand: -and they just got like superdosed with Iodine, and— and they got worse. So—
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Hundred percent. Cool, Evan. Anything else you wanted to mention?
Evan Brand: I think that's it. I mean, we can hit up the other questions, you know, next week, but we've both got a roll. And so, in the meantime, if you want to reach out to Justin for help, got to his site, justinhealth.com, and if you want to check out me, you can check out evanbrand.com. We love helping you all. We love talking to you and we'll be back next Monday.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Yeah. I'll be back on Friday for my live Q&A, guys, so any questions I didn't get to, we'll hit it up there. Give me a like. Give me a thumbs up. Give me a share. Palm that bell. Tell a friend or family member. We're here to help you all-all. We love interacting. I appreciate you guys being uh— active participants in this conversation.
Evan Brand: Take care.
Dr. Justin Marchegiani: Evan, take care. Bye.

Established in October of 1995, the School Advisory Council (formerly the School Board) serves as a consultative body to the Pastor and to the Principal in the implementation of Archdiocesan policies and to formulate policies on the local parish level. The Council works in close association with the Principal; but the Principal is accountable to the Pastor, not to the Council. Members are selected through a parish- and school-wide nomination process, followed by an orientation workshop and personal interview by the Selection Committee. Members serve three-year terms.
The Council does not discipline students, develop curriculum, improve instructional materials, hire/fire staff, write regulations, or handle grievances.

Q: How to create a Program/Command that will search files for every instance of "Real" and then replace them with "double." I just started coding in C. I need to create a program/command that will search through the various program files and directories, locate any instances of the word "Real" and then replace them with the word "double". This program/command will need to be able to search though .c and .h files (and possibly more).
Basically, I would like to avoid having to search through thousands of lines of code, and dozens of files, just to retype the word "Real" as "double". As you are aware, these are variable types, and I need to change one to the other. Any ideas? Thoughts?

A: sed -e 's/Real/double/g'
On your input files...

I realize that this may require multiple programs (one for each file type).

Nope, that's completely false.

A: Create a typedef instead:
typedef double Real;

Now any instance of Real is an alias to double.
You don't want to use a simple text find/replace tool like sed since that could potentially change the string "Real" which appears in comments, string constants, or as part of another identifier such as getRealUser.

A: What about looking in to some intelligent text editors, like Notepad++ (https://notepad-plus-plus.org)? It has the capability to search across multiple files, multiple folders and multiple extensions, also using Regular Expressions.
In general, anyway, editing code with find-and-replace utilities would be not my first choice. When writing C code, it's better to use some typedef keywords, or some preprocessor related stuff, to write a code which is more editable and scalable in the future.

Main Fires in San Diego: Disasters Householders Confronted
HomeAll Posts...Main Fires in San Diego: Disasters...
San Diego has encountered many fires. However, some of them were considered to be much more disastrous than others. This article describes these major fire events in the history of San Diego. Note that these events are spread across history, and some may date back to the early 1990s. Again, this list is in no particular order.
Listed below are the major fire incidents in San Diego history.
1. Witch Creek and Guejito Fires (2007)
On October 21, 2007, a strong wind blew through the power lines, starting a fire that was relatively small on the east side of Romana, the area known as Witch Creek. The next day (October 22nd) at 2:00 am, a fire began around the San Pasqual Valley. The Witch Creek Fire moved towards the city limits and soon, not long after, the two fires merged.
Approximately 197,990 acres in the county while 9,250 acres were burned in the city. Around 365 houses were burned down in the city. All the houses were in Rancho Bernardo. 1141 houses were destroyed across the country and two people died. The fires are the largest evacuation the county has ever seen. About 500,000 citizens were evacuated. 7 trucks, 420 people, and 73 engines were used as the fire grew.
The fires are among the 21 largest forest fires in Southern California. Another incident called the Harris Fire began on the day of the Witch Creek Fire. However, this did not get into the city. Click here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harris_Fire to learn more about the Harris Fire. It is said to have resulted in five deaths and burned 90,440 acres.
2. The great standard oil fire (1913)
On October 5, 1913, a passing locomotive had a spark that caused 250,000 gallons of distilled oil to flare up in flames. The oil burned and threw sparks in the sky and then fell on the surrounding tanks. One tank had black oil in whooping cough quantity 1,500,000 gallons; this also broke out. The only way the firefighters could keep the tanks cool was by spraying water; They fought to stop a black oil explosion. Unfortunately, a tank of 250,000 gallons of gasoline exploded so loudly that people in La Mesa heard it. The spectators were rescued by boats. The firefighters were eventually released after fighting the fires Sunday through Tuesday.
3. Normal Heights Fire (1985)
On June 30, 1985, a strong wind caused a flame that soon went up a series of Mission Valley canyons. 300 acres and 76 homes were destroyed by the normal altitude fire. 57 other houses were damaged. The total damage was estimated at $ 9 million. The number of people evacuated ranged from 1,000 to 1,500. You can visit the San Diego Dry Express to learn more about fire fighting. Heavy brushes propelled the flames around houses and in the canyons. 98 rigs and 400 firefighters were used to fight the inferno. The firefighters came from almost all rural and urban fire areas in the region, and the federal firefighters also came from the Miramar Naval and North Island air force stations.
The first warning came at 11:52 am; However, the flames were already out of control before the first unit arrived at 1:00 p.m. The inferno was eventually extinguished despite the problems encountered with the hydrants. This event resulted in the establishment of various initiatives such as the brush and weed control program and plans to improve the city's water pressure.
4. Cedar Fire (2003)
This is the largest wildland inferno in all of California's history. It started in the Cleveland National Forest. It started as a small fire lit by a lost hunter as a token of help. Unfortunately, the flames got out of hand and soon covered about 20 acres. By midnight of the same day (October 25), the flames had covered 5,500 acres and 62,000 acres were covered by 3:00 a.m. At 6: 3 a.m. on October 26, the inferno had arrived in San Diego. 50 engines, 9 trucks and 11 oil rigs were used to fight the inferno.
Tierrasanta and Scripps Ranch were hardest hit. On the 28th it was declared that the flames were contained. At that point, 28,676 acres in the city had been burned and 71 buildings were damaged while 335 were destroyed. In addition, 15 people were killed. The total loss was estimated at $ 204 million.
5. American-Hawaiian Company Freighter Fire (1910)
It can be said that this inferno is the most persistent that San Diego has ever seen. On June 17, 1910, the freighter S.S. Alaskan on the Santa Fe Quay Fire. The tarpaulin on hatch # 4 was removed from the dock workers, but they were greeted by hot gas and smoke. At this point the firefighters were informed by the skipper that they had calcium carbide on the ship. So using water to fight the flames would create deadly acetylene gas. Read this article to learn more about the calcium carbide reaction on water. Because of this, the firefighters only had to use hand extinguishers and chemical tanks to fight the inferno.
On the third day, the fire department ran out of sulfuric acid and bicarbonate soda, so a truckload was dispatched from Los Angeles. Eventually the inferno was extinguished when liquid carbonic acid was pumped through holes in the ship's plate. It took a total of 3 weeks to extinguish the flames, and history was made when an inferno was first extinguished with carbon dioxide gas.
Fires are not pleasant events and can cause a lot of damage. San Diego has seen many of these bad events. However, some of these events did more damage than others. This article contains a list of the major San Diego fires.

Gay rights groups willfully ignore positive Palin, Angle comments at CPAC; GOProud hits back
Jeff Winkler Contributor
February 11, 2011 2:54 AM ET
The nation's largest gay rights advocacy organization, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), has instituted its own "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy toward conservative firebrands Sarah Palin and Sharron Angle after they implicitly — but clearly — voiced support for the gay-oriented Republican group GOProud.
The buzz surrounding GOProud's involvement in this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) has been the focus of media attention, after groups that normally participate in the "conservative Woodstock" pulled out of an event accepting of a self-identified gay group.
On Wednesday, Palin reiterated her support for CPAC's inclusion of "different, diverse groups … involved in political discourse." Palin will not be in attendance at the conservative-fest, but told the Huffington Post that she is "always in favor of freedom" and encourages "discussion."
Angle, unlike other high-profile political figures, did not boycott CPAC because of GOProud's involvement. In attendance herself, Angle echoed Palin's sentiment when she told the Huffington Post: "We need to be very careful when we get to talk about our opinions and be inclusive."
The HRC — whose stated goal is to "achieve lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) equality" — appears to be holding a second Day of Silence.
"We have no comment on this matter," HRC Deputy Press Secretary Paul Guequierre told The Daily Caller when asked for a comment regarding Palin and Angle's recent support of GOProud.
Other prominent nationwide gay-rights organizations, like the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), did not respond to numerous inquires from TheDC regarding Palin and Angle's comments. On its website, GLAAD does, however, state that by "ensuring that the stories of LGBT people are heard through the media, GLAAD promotes understanding, increases acceptance, and advances equality."
Another organization, The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force referred similar questions regarding Palin and Angle to GOProud.
Having two of America's most prominent conservative women vocally indicate their acceptance of alternative lifestyles seems like a positive sign for "equal rights" groups like the HRC, as well as an opportunity to foster further discussion. So what gives?
"It's not surprising to me. At the end of the day, Human Rights Campaign is nothing more than a partisan Democratic organization," GOProud's Chris Barron told TheDC.
"They spend days publicly attacking something [Sarah Palin's] teenage daughter said on Facebook — on Facebook; but they can't bring themselves to thank Gov. Palin for having the courage to stand up for gay people," said Barron. "It speaks volumes about what a joke that entire organization is."
According to its internal search engine, the HRC has more than 60 press releases related to Sarah Palin — none of which are positive. One release, which relates to Bristol Palin's Facebook incident, is titled, "HRC to Sarah Palin: Two Days of Silence, Will You Speak Up?"
"They ought to save money on rent and move in with the DNC, because they're one in the same organization," said Barron. "They hold themselves out as a nonpartisan/bipartisan organization, and things like this just prove that nothing could be further from the truth."
Barron said that unlike the supposed gay rights focus of the partisan groups, GOProud is much more consistent in supporting equality. He noted GOProud's support of repealing "Don't Ask Don't Tell," for which the group has taken criticism from conservatives such as Erick Erickson.
As for the gay rights groups, Barron says they should at least have the decency to come out of the closet.
"If they want to be the gay Democratic wing, then they ought to be honest," he said.

Health department adding 3rd covid shots
Yesterday (Wednesday), the Wahkiakum County Health Department (WHHS) began administering third doses of covid-19 vaccine to people with compromised immune systems, as defined by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The CDC approved the third dose regimen over the weekend.
"The CDC is indicating that people who are seriously immunocompromised and had either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine should get a third dose," WHHS Director Chris Bischoff said in a Tuesday email. "There is no indication yet for the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. The CDC would prefer that the third dose of the vaccine be the same as the original. The CDC does indicate that it can be interchangeable.
"For us, we will begin offering third doses to anyone who meets the CDC's requirement for severely immunocompromised and already had either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine. We only have Pfizer, so that is what we will use to give the third dose.
"I've looked at some of the science on using either of the mRNA vaccines for the third dose and it looks solid, meaning that getting a third dose with a different mRNA vaccine, from the first two, seems as efficacious as getting all three from the same manufacturer.
"We will give third doses of Pfizer during our normal clinic times: Monday and Wednesday 9 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.-3 p.m. This will start at our Aug.18 clinic going forward.
"If anyone prefers to get Moderna they will need to find another source.
"We will not ask for any sort of verification on immunocompromised status; we would encourage anyone who thinks they qualify to consult with their primary care provider.
"It is important to note that this does not apply to the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. There has been no indication from the CDC on another dose for J&J. If someone originally got the J&J and wants to switch or augment with one of the mRNA vaccines or another dose of J&J, we cannot.
"The third dose must be at least 28 days after the second dose of Pfizer or Moderna."
Vaccines are freely available to anyone 12 or older in the county. Health personnel say that getting vaccinated is the best possible protection from covid-19. WHHS encourages everyone who hasn't already been vaccinated to contact the health department or their personal medical provider and get scheduled. Phone 360-849-4041.

One World Symphony Artistic Director Sung Jin Hong '97 (third from right) joined members of The September Concert Foundation on the podium of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on Friday, Sept. 10.
Alum Rings in a New Day on Wall Street
BLOOMINGTON, Ill. – Illinois Wesleyan University alum Sung Jin Hong proudly stepped onto the podium at the New York Stock Exchange Friday, September 10 at 9:30 a.m. to ring the opening bell, signifying the start of another day of trading on Wall Street.
The '97 graduate is the founder and current composer and conductor of New York's One World Symphony. Hong was invited to ring the bell in honor of the symphony's service to and presence in the community.
One World Symphony (OWS), created by Hong in 2000, is a not-for-profit organization composed of 70 musicians, 81 vocalists and 13 staff members. The symphony performs concerts throughout the NYC area, selling tickets for a fraction of the cost of many New York concert halls.
The symphony was described by Courier-Life as "New York's hippest orchestra" and received "top marks for gutsy programming" by Time Out New York Magazine.
Some of OWS's most famous programming includes a benefit concert, held just days after Sept. 11, for families of firefighters who died in the Twin Towers. In 2005, OWS performed another benefit concert for disaster victims affected by the tsunami in Haiti.

Does temporarily pausing cloudflare also stop its DDos protection?
I know that pausing cloudflare will stop its proxy service facilities like SSL,WAF etc, keeping only DNS active. But I wanted to specifically know if pausing it also causes stopping of DDos protection?
Yes. Temporarily pausing Cloudflare sends all traffic directly to your server's IP address, putting Cloudflare into DNS-Only mode.
Isn't anti-DDoS is a DNS feature, separate from its proxy security features?
People won't be able to DDoS the DNS server (something.ns.cloudflare.com) for your domain, but your website will be completely unprotected. They can hit 8.8.8.8 or some other public DNS resolver to get your website's IP address, then hammer away at it.

Wisconsin Army Guard officer receives national leadership award
Published: April 3, 2015
One of the seven National Guard recipients of the Gen. Douglas MacArthur Leadership Award — which recognizes company-grade officers who embody the ideals of duty, honor and country — spent most of his military career in the enlisted ranks.
Capt. Ron Adams of Milwaukee, who commands the Wisconsin Army National Guard's 112th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment, said his two decades as an enlisted Soldier has proven invaluable.
"I have a unique perspective as an officer," Adams explained. "I have served in just about every rank and leadership position as anyone in my unit, and understand their needs and challenges."
Adams has served in the military for more than 26 years, the last 22 in the Wisconsin Army National Guard. He is a Desert Storm veteran, and has worked as a readiness noncommissioned officer for a field artillery battery in Milwaukee, a leader in the early days of the Wisconsin Army National Guard's recruit sustainment program, and the state equal opportunity and diversity officer. Having practical experience as both an enlisted and commissioned Soldier has helped him prioritize Soldier care and family support, while still requiring excellence in accomplishing the mission.
"I believe I was selected for this award because it considers the whole person," he said. "No matter my role — to follow or to manage the work of others — I believe I must always think and act as a leader."
Adams also credits his father, Willie James Adams, for instilling the characteristics at a young age that have shaped his military career. Capt. Adams was 10 when his father died, so these lessons were learned by observation rather than lecture or preaching.
"Watching him as a young boy, I learned that leadership requires self-discipline, righteous action, pure motives and extraordinary selflessness," he said. "I work hard to hold myself accountable to the same high standards my father held himself to."
Brig. Gen. Mark Anderson, deputy adjutant general for Army, expressed his pride in Adams' selection for the award.
"Of course, while I am personally very happy for him, I am not surprised," Anderson said. "He is a tremendously gifted and capable officer and young leader, professional in every manner. While this award recognizes his demonstrated leadership, I personally believe it is more a reflection of the bright future Capt. Adams has in serving with the Wisconsin Army National Guard and the U.S. Army."
Adams was thankful for support from past and present military leaders, from Soldiers and community leaders, and from his wife and children.
"I'm blessed that I get to share this with my entire family," he said, "especially my wife Angela, who serves as a family readiness group leader, and my children, two of whom serve on our state's youth advisory board. Their willingness to share in, and contribute to, this journey of service and leadership is why I dedicate this award to my family."
Adams will receive the award during a formal ceremony at the end of May in Washington D.C.

Kennet and Avon Canal. Semington to The Summit.
Before we left Semington for the last time, Dave made a start on repainting the roof. Because of all the tat that lives up there, the paint has a hard time and needs re-doing every three years or so. In an ideal world, we'd take everything off, sand the whole thing down and give it several coats, but unfortunately that's not where we live, so we have to do it in bits. The result isn't perfectly seamless, but it fulfils it's primary objective; it stops the steel going rusty. Anything over and above that is a bonus, however Dave does put a lot of effort into achieving a good finish. The hardest bit is juggling everything around to make a space to work on.
We also took the advice of our cratch cover material manufacturer and bought some Fabsil Gold, which we applied with a paintbrush.
A couple of nights later we had a shower which gave us the opportunity to see how well it had worked.
Quite impressive. and the inside of the cratch was lovely and dry, something it hasn't been for a long time.
Also, before we left, we walked up to the school for what turned out to be a brilliant afternoon at the Semington village féte. A local band called Folk Lift Truck kept us entertained with a seemingly endless mixture of mostly eighties covers, and they even threw in the Saw Doctors' "N17" which, it turned out, we knew more words to than they did! They, along with all the usual tombola, bric-a-brac, cakes and plant stalls, and a tug of war as well - all in glorious sunshine- made us very happy to have been there.
Next morning we were up the locks to Sells Green. We shared the locks with a crew on a hire boat. When they first joined us they made a big fuss of telling us that they had their own boat on the Shropshire Union, (as if it was some far-away magical kingdom that our poor K&A Luddite brains would have no hope of comprehending) and that they weren't your average hire boaters and they knew what they were doing. Then, amidst a fair amount of shouting from the crew on the bank, the steerer came into the next lock far too fast, crashed into the wing wall, bounced off Legend and rattled into the lock like a snooker ball. There was lots of blaming the boat- "It doesn't steer like ours!" " The engine goes too fast!" - that sort of thing, to which we just smiled politely, after that they stopped talking down to us and were very pleasant for the rest of the trip.
At Sells Green, we moored just off the end of the 48s (again) and did a bit of grass cutting so we could put the BBQ out and erect a sunshade.
Colin and Tina dropped in for dinner on their way home from a disastrous site visit on the Shrewsbury and Newport canal which had resulted in Colin cancelling the forthcoming camp. They weren't happy, understandably, but after a good evening chatting and a plateful of our wonderful BBQ offerings, they left feeling much better. We're really looking forward to our week with them at the WRG Derby canal camp.
A couple of days later, with another coat of gloss on the first 1/6th of the roof...
...and the dry goods under-plinth stash re-stocked from the Aldi in Melksham, we set of for Foxhangers. Up the Foxhangers locks...
...and just above Marsh lane, we dropped perfectly onto the 48s at the base of the main Caen Hill flight.
We love it when a plan comes together!
Dave moved onto the second 1/6th, which meant moving the log pallet, so that got repaired and painted as well.
The Caen Hill locks were on restricted opening - ten till three, with the last entry at midday - so at quarter to ten the next morning we were ready for the off. We were the first boat up and on our own...
...and with all the locks in our favour and a volunteer setting ahead and helping, we were up the big flight of sixteen to the café in an amazing two hours.
We know it's not a race but we like to be efficient and we're rather proud of that. After a quick bite to eat we carried on up the next five and moored exactly where we'd planned, just below the final lock. We wanted to be there because that meant we could go up into Devizes the next morning and not overstay the 72hr mooring restriction while we abandoned Legend yet again.
By four o'clock the next afternoon, we'd worked through the final lock, moored up exactly where we wanted to, shipped our stuff into the car, driven to Ely, booked in, pitched the tent, found David and Kate's camper van and were partaking of a cheeky gin with them at the fabulous Ely Folk Festival!
As you may well know, Dear Reader, we love Ely, and we love this festival, especially as it falls on or around our wedding anniversary. Friday night was brilliant, Gerry Colvin in the main marquee...
...then a ridiculously enthusiastic ceilidh at midnight. In all we did three ceilidhs, and hardly sat down at any of them, and we did a morris workshop with the Witchmen (lots of hop-stepping and holding a stick in a manner that would get you arrested anywhere else). We bounced around to a bonkers band called Ferocious Dog, (who are a bit like the Levellers, if the Levellers had been on intravenous Red Bull for a week and were trying to finish the gig before the tent burned down) and on the Sunday night we had the Oysterband in the main marquee. Wowee! What a weekend! And if that wasn't enough, In-between we got to meet up with our American friend Mike, who lives on a narrowboat on the little Ouse, and were introduced to his husband, also Mike, and had lunch and a very nice couple of hours with them in Ely while the morris procession and dancing were going on. Oh, and we got to see the wonderful Les Barker as well. Best Ely Ever!
That evening, after packing up and driving home via Karen's and Mum & Dad's we had a very pleasant evening boating up to Horton Bridge and the Bridge Inn. As we moored up the fabulous smells from the pub's kitchen welcomed us, but unfortunately by the time we got to the bar we were minutes too late and they'd stopped serving food! Never mind, Ann-Marie whistled up some very tasty liver and onions instead.
We seem to have got our boat moving timings sorted out for the K&A - when we got to All Cannings the next morning there was a perfect Legend sized mooring waiting for us right where we wanted it.
We hung the washing out, had lunch outside in the sunshine, then in the evening had a BBQ on the towpath with and eclipsed moon behind us. Bliss.
The next day we got some quite devastating news. Dave's sister Kate, who lives in Cornwall, has been diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer, which has metastasised into her liver. Dear Reader, this is a boating blog, so I won't depress you with the details, suffice to say that there will no doubt be a lot of to-ing and fro-ing and it will no doubt dominate our lives for the next few months.
Our next mooring was Wilcot.
We stopped there on the way out and although it's two-gangplanks shallow, the fact that you can moor ten feet from where your car is parked makes it ideal if you're just about to go away for a week on a WRG canal camp. Which we were. And Ann-Marie was doing the cooking so, as well as all our usual stuff, (which, after the air-bed collapsing fiasco at the last BCN cleanup now includes a pair of rather splendid camp beds) there were several bags of ingredients and baking paraphernalia.
Of course, the last time we were there it was March, and since that visit it has become decidedly more verdant. So much so that Dave had to attack the hole in the hedge with the garden shears before we could tranship our belongings through it.
Our accommodation for the Derby Canal Camp was at West Hallam Village Hall. Colin, Tina and ourselves got there about four and along with some others spent the evening sorting out blackout blinds, arranging tables, shopping for the first couple of meals and generally making ourselves at home. In the morning Colin, Dave and Andy went to Lichfield to pick up the vans and trailer containing all the site tools and kitchen kit, then on Sunday morning we had our first day on site at Borrowash Lock.
Our remit for the week was to lay all the coping stones on the wing walls at the bottom of the lock...
...to dig out the canal bed at the top and bottom, to rebuild and repoint the retaining walls leading away from the lock in both directions...
and to finish and pave the coins where the top gates hang.
We also wanted to do some landscaping around the sides, and back-fill behind the new copers that we were laying; generally leaving it looking decidedly more like a lock than when we arrived.
Our site visit had made it clear that there weren't enough coping stones lying around with good enough faces to do the job, so we knew we were going to have to find an alternative. Volunteers on the Inglesham lock had had reasonable success casting concrete blocks in situ and using various tools and methods to distress and age the finished product, so we wanted to have a go at that. With the boldness of the naive, we chose to do the big corner block first. The shuttering went up with lots of bracing, (the last thing you want is for it to bulge when you fill it)…
...half a dozen brick ties were plugged into the base followed by a two part fill. Part one is ordinary concrete and forms the core. Part two is the facing material; sharp sand and white cement. Both elements are put in at the same time; two to three inches of facing mix round the edge and the core in the middle, tamp it down and gradually build both up, with a facing mix as a top layer.
The next day the shuttering comes off...
...and with a wire brush and a scutching hammer any hint of smoothness is chipped away. The result is quite pleasing and over the week we cast four of them in crucial places.
Recessed coins, like the one above are a repair by a stonemason and not often seen. Originally the gate collar would have been attached to the face of the stone by anchor bolts that were plugged into chiselled holes with molten lead. If these came loose over time they would be taken out, a recess cut into the stone and new holes made to fix the collar back in.
We also used a stone saw and chisels to cut up some very large blocks...
...and once the mechanical excavator arrived with a curb lifter, we got on with the job a lot faster.
Of course with eighteen of us at work, lots of other stuff was happening on site as well, the walls below and above the lock were coming on well...
...and the paving was taking shape.
On the Thursday (the hottest day of a hot week) we all formed ourselves into a wheelbarrowing gang to take the spoil that Colin was digging out from the bottom of the lock with the eacavator up to the towpath side and landscaped the whole area.
On the other side of the management team Ann-Marie was performing culinary miracles in the village hall kitchen. The volunteers were provided with a cooked breakfast at seven sharp every morning, a selection of home made cakes at tea-break twice a day, whatever packed lunches their hearts desired and a two course dinner (with seconds for those who had any room) when they got back from site. Ann-Marie was kept very busy, but nobody went anywhere near hungry.
There was also a range of evening entertainment - crazy golf, abseiling, a film night, bell ringing in the local church and a pub quiz.
We know it's a working holiday and we work them hard, but for £70 a week we think they get excellent value for money.
One evening Colin, Dave and Andy went back to site for a spot of digger practice. Colin drives one for a living so it was very useful to be able to learn from a pro.
And just like that it was all over. Saturday morning, breakfast served and washed up, all the kit cleaned and packed away, both the vans and the trailer whisked off to Lichfield for their next assignment and by eleven o'clock we were sitting in Tesco's café, slightly shell shocked. Our gang of volunteers had achieved everything we'd set out to do and we'd had a fabulous week.
On the way home we stopped off to see Mum and Dad and went out for a meal with them and Margaret and Bruce.
Two nights later we were off down to Cornwall. We made a trip of it; Montacute house (NT) for a picnic lunch...
...then stopping firstly at Chard for a cuppa with Ann-Marie's cousin Carolyn followed by a stop-over in Exeter with Dave's cousins John and Linda.
John and Linda's new garden. Lush!
From there it was a quick run down to Truro where Kate is staying for the time being with John. We had a really good couple of days with them, there were some quite in-depth chats, lots of hugs, and trips out to special places.
Padstow with an icecream.
Homer Downs, where Dave and Kate's mum used to live
now abandoned and completely overgrown.
Gorran Haven with the tide in.
We were able to help with the practical side of things as well; John bought a new washing machine and had it delivered while we were there so Dave pulled the old one out and plumbed the new one in for them, then fixed the back door so they could use the easy steps up to the parking space.
On our way home we nipped into St Austell for a pasty and had a walk along the beach at Carlyon Bay. Then we were up the A30 and the M5 to Bristol for tea with Anne, Cat and Jen, followed by a late night run back to the boat.
Dave was up with the lark in the morning and out with the bow saw to scavenge some nicely seasoned fallen oak that he'd espied a bit further up the canal. He stashed it all by a bridge 'ole, then after breakfast we extracted ourselves from the bank, said goodbye to Wilcot and went to pick it all up on our way to Pewsey. As is becoming our style, we slipped onto a perfect 48hr mooring at Pewsey, Dave cut up his new wood then we walked into the village for supplies.
The following day Dave started on another 1/6th of the roof, then did a car move to Wootton Rivers. That is where we'd planned to go next, there are some very nice 48hr moorings above the bottom lock but it turned out that the bottom lock was padlocked as part of the navigation restrictions over the summit. We'd thought that it was just the summit that was closed, so we emailed CRT and told them of our plight and asked for an extension at Pewsey until the next moving day.
Dave found temporary homes for all the tat in the big solar box, then collapsed the box and stacked the big panel on top of the smaller ones, freeing up another bit of roof for painting. He got it cleaned up, scraped, sanded and a coat of red lead on all the patches before lunch...
giving it plenty of time to dry, then the next day rubbed the whole section down with 500 grit wet & dry before washing it. While that bit was drying off he put the second coat on the previous section… at which point the grass-cutting contractors turned up. On seeing the paint tins, they kindly avoided using their strimmers or leaf-blower right outside the boat, so we got away with minor collateral damage. After they'd gone he managed to get a coat of gloss on the solar box section.
Wooton Rivers locks opened at ten the following morning, so we left Pewsey at about nine, knowing that there would be quite a few of the boats that had gone past over the previous couple of days in front of us. When we got close we tagged onto the back of the queue and gradually made our way forward, trying to hover in the cut while six lockfuls of water came past us.
We were in the seventh locking and there were another three narrowboats behind us.
Because no mooring is allowed on the summit, all those boats went back down the locks the same day; add that to all the boats coming in the other direction and you get over 30 lockfuls of water. That's a lot of water off the summit.
We, however, weren't going over the summit. We moored up on the visitor moorings above the first lock having assured the lock keeper that we wouldn't be moving till Thursday and that we were perfectly happy that the water levels might go down. In the afternoon we went for a walk up to Burbage wharf and back along a footpath that, despite having a beautiful bench alongside where the dotty line on the map said it should be...
...didn't exist at all. Thankfully it crossed a field that had just been combine harvested...
...so we could actually follow the dotty line, although in the end it defeated us by fizzling out on the edge of a very dense looking maize field. We gave up and went back to the boat along the towpath; another one lost forever.
The forecast changed every time we looked at it the next morning, but in the end Dave threw caution to the winds and put the second coat on the bit under the solar box while Ann-Marie did the washing.
She hung it out just as he finished, then we both waited anxiously to see if the grey clouds that had been present all morning were going to do us in. Later on it did rain but luckily it wasn't for long and the paint had already got enough of a skin not to be harmed.
That was the day when we found out that our friend Lindsay had also been unwell and was awaiting test results, and that Karen & Andrew had broken down in Slovenia on their way home from the Citroen 2cv world meeting in Croatia. They were coming home on a plane without Karen's beloved car, which will be returned to her on the back a recovery truck in a couple of weeks.
The next day we set off up the Wootton Rivers flight with Glynn on Nb Mawdlyn. (That's what we thought, but don't worry, he's going to rename it) He turned at Burbage Wharf while we carried on past the restored wharf crane...
...and through the Bruce Tunnel...
...to go down the Crofton flight and moor up opposite the big steam-powered Beam engines.
Because the summit is about four miles long, even 30 lockfuls of water doesn't reduce the depth all that much. However, once all that water has gone down the flights at either side, it takes an awfully long time for the chain of back pumps that fill the summit from the River Avon to supply enough for it to overflow into the pounds below - one of which we were moored in. To make matters worse, our pound was quite leaky, so over the course of the evening we gradually got lower and lower, until we, and the other 6 boats on our mooring, were sitting on the bottom. We were OK because we'd pushed out onto the gangplanks when we first felt it leaning and were on the flat bit, but others were not so forward thinking and ended up still at the side and quite tilted over. Happily, by the following morning the water had made its way down the by-washes and we were floating enough to pull back to the bank, and by lunch time the pound was back to full.

Now i tried to play a video file .3gp from the internet youtube link via my android device ! not emulator. And it worked! But when i tried to play a video file .3gp or .mp4( i converted the mp4 from 3gp ) its not working. Im getting error "Cannot play video Sorry, this video cannot be played"
I tried to remove the I: but it didn't change anything.This is the main code im using to play the video files on my device. And there some lines i marked with // wich i used to play from the internet and im not using now.
I have downloaded and tried lots of video players from the Android Market, namely Vplayer, mVideoPlayer, Rockplayer Lite, RealPlayer, Meridian and MX Video Player. They are all similar and lack one function which I have to have, and that is being able to play at a higher speed, around 1.3x to 1.7x like desktop VLC player.
Do you you know any video player currently on Android that has this function? I can not stand movies at normal pace because I find them too slow for my taste.
If this is a repeat of another thread then i apologize .i need a video player that will play mp4 video in full resolution for the droid.m coming from bb.can you help me with this.i don't care if it is free or not.
I do not know if it is possible to share between android devices music and video to stream audio (music) or video among to devices at the same time.
For example: I am in a train and I have a movie in my android phone and I want to see it but also share it with my friend on his tablet. I would like to see it in both devices at the same time. Is this possible? Do I need to download an app for this, to sync the reproduction of the video or music?
Can I use Wi-Fi direct or use a Bluetooth connection?
Can it be this made only between android devices or can it be a mix of Os such: android to iOs (apple)?
I need many hours of video for my 2 year old for long flights. Is there anywhere in the android universe with downloadable video content similar to itunes and amazon? My iTunes and amazon video collection will not play on android device.
Has anyone found a video player that automatically plays the next video when the first video ends like episodic videos?
Can anyone please tell me if Android Media Player is able to play a video that is placed in a remote server, in a supported format?
I love my Eris BUT it is inferior in one critical area (too me) - I like to use my player t"watch" VIDEO podcasts or tivo'd news shows. Much of the time, I do not need to actually see the video (just want to hear it). So is their a video app that will let me play the video and turn the screen off and/or play video while I use the device to do other tasks. Seems like a simple feature but I cant find it anywhere for the Android.
I am new to android.I am trying to play a video from sdcard. this is the sample code I have used..
At first, I believe there was a question that would pop up asking me whether I wanted to use youtube or not, but I must have said don't ask anymore, because I don't get that now (is there a way to get that question back?). Now when I click on a flash file, I get a choice to download or play. I click play, and the screen goes black. There is some sort of spinning 'loading' graphic, then I get a popup that says "Cannot play video Unable to connect to server". This happens on any of the major video sites.
I thought the Moment's video player could play MPEG-4(mp4) videos, but when I browse to a website that has an mpeg-4 video, I get the error message saying the video is not supported. Here's a link to a video that doesn't play on my Moment, but will play inside Quicktime on my PC. Is there a VLC like player for android to play mp4, wmp and other assorted video files?
I'm looking for an app or combination of apps where I can find a link to a movie online, stream it on my phone then using air play push it onto my tv. They only released the sony screen mirroring app to a couple of sony xperia phones so I cant use that. I dont want to have to download the movie first either.
Is there a phone that can play MKV and DTS with stock player ?
I have this flash presentation of interior spaces on the site (url below) which I can see on my laptop/desktop but just unable to view on any browser on my Android 4.2.1.
For a complete story, I use Micromax Canvas 4 (India Product) running on Android 4.2.1. I have downloaded Flash Player 11.1.115.69 and installed on my phone. I have Dolphin browser ver 10.2.5 with the setup of "Flash Player" - "Always on" in the settings. I also have Firefox with settings - Plugins Enabled.
However, I am just unable to view the above content over the phone and am just frustrated with this right now. I have a customer presentation coming up for this and I do not know how to show the content over the smartphone.
I need to embed windows media player in a web page and show streaming video from my server with a url. I have WMP on my phone and the video streams through it fine. Is there any way to embed this now in a web page? It does not play. Do I need a special plugin or what?

Australia minister warns foreign journalists amid China spat
A senior Australian government minister on Sunday warned foreign journalists working in the country they might come under the scrutiny of federal agencies if they provide a "slanted view" of Australian affairs.
Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton made the comments during a television interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corp, referring to journalists reporting to "a particular community".
While he didn't mention China, Dutton's comments come after the evacuation from China last week of Australian journalists Bill Birtles and Mike Smith, who sheltered in Australian diplomatic compounds after being questioned by police.
Australian Cheng Lei, who works as a business anchor for CGTN, China's English-language state broadcaster, earlier was taken into custody.
"If people are here as journalists and they're reporting fairly on the news, then that's fine," Dutton told ABC TV's Insiders programme. He said reporters shouldn't provide "a slanted view to a particular community".
Dutton wouldn't confirm reports four Chinese journalists were questioned by Australia's national security agency ASIO in June but said there had been "ASIO activity". "Where ASIO has sufficient grounds for the execution of a search warrant or for activities otherwise, then they'll undertake that activity," he said.
"If people are masquerading as journalists or business leaders or whoever they might be and there's evidence that they are acting in a contrary nature to Australian law, then ASIO and the Australian Federal Police and other agencies will act."
He said there was no evidence that action by the Australian agencies had put Australian journalists in China at risk. Asked about Cheng Lei, he said "we want to work very closely with the Chinese in relation to that matter and we'll continue to do that".
Beijing accused Australia of interference in China's internal affairs and judicial sovereignty for providing diplomatic protection to Birtles, who reports for the ABC, and Smith, who works for the Australian Financial Review.
"Australia's actions in organising the two journos to hide in the embassy completely exceed the scope of consular protection and in fact is interference in a Chinese legal case," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said.

Tag: early literacy programs and teacher training
In Illinois, Educators and Students Fight for the Right to Read
It's not magic - it's science.
This is what Kait Feriante, the founder of Redwood Literacy, a Chicago-based literacy tutoring program for teens, had to say about structured literacy instruction. Redwood Literacy has become a lifeline to teens who have experienced poverty, tragedy, systemic neglect, and other circumstances that limited their access to high-quality reading instruction from an early age. Feriante and her team employ the Wilson Reading System, which emphasizes phonics, high-frequency words, and the importance of reading sentences aloud. While the program's literacy intervention specialists hold their students accountable to meet reading milestones, they are also playful and gracious, addressing students with a firm warmth during their twice-a-week, 90-minute reading sessions.
In Illinois, Redwood is a rarity: Illinois school districts have been slow to adopt reading curricula based on the science of reading. The now debunked philosophy of balanced literacy assumes that reading skills develop naturally, dismissing the value of decoding and other foundational skills; yet some Illinois schools still use the approach, haphazardly mixing phonics with whole-language instruction. Illinois has yet to utilize federal COVID relief funds to expand and improve early literacy programs, lagging behind the District of Columbia and 18 U.S. states that are mobilizing these funds to improve early literacy programs and teacher training.
Historically, Illinois' largest school district, Chicago Public Schools (CPS), left schools and even individual teachers to devise their own reading curricula. While the district debuted a new literacy curriculum called Skyline in the summer of 2021, only 30% of CPS schools adopted its English Language Arts portion, which contains elements of structured literacy. Grassroots changes to reading curricula may be more impactful: early in the pandemic, teachers at a local elementary school in Plano, IL began researching structured literacy and lobbied for a new literacy program grounded in the science of reading. One of those teachers, Pam Reilly, is one of a growing assembly of voices who assert that "'when we know better, we do better'": a belief that underpins the state's latest Right to Read bill. The bill calls for 3 key actions by the state school board:
Create a list of evidence-based reading programs and increase access to support, training, and grants for school districts that want them
Require an evidence-based reading instruction assessment for teachers seeking licensure in early grades
Create a statewide online training module for preschool and elementary teachers, including those who work with students with disabilities, to enhance knowledge of the science of reading
Both the House and Senate versions of the bill easily passed committees and are primed for debate on their respective floors this session. While Right to Read is widely supported, opponents worry that the new legislation minimizes the needs of English language learners. This remains a valid concern for Redwood and any literacy program or school working to adopt comprehensive and culturally responsive reading instruction.
While no reading intervention program is perfect, the guarantee of small group instruction, transportation assistance, small weekly stipends, and $1000 by the end of Redwood's program represents one small - but significant - attempt to empower young people with the tools to read and receive help from empathetic adults. Their newfound literacy skills carry into adulthood, improving their prospects for employment, higher education, and overall confidence. Redwood illuminates the intersection of reading science and social justice: a reality that Illinois and other states must honor. By acknowledging all students' right to read and the scientific basis of reading itself, it is implied that all students have the potential to learn - and thrive - as adults, parents, and future educators themselves.
Redwood Literacy is a literacy intervention program in Illinois: it relies on the science of reading to support students who have not had consistent access to high-quality literacy education.
Statewide, Illinois has struggled to adopt reading curricula and intervention strategies grounded in the science of reading.
Grassroots efforts and district-wide concerns regarding students' reading abilities supported the initial drafting of the Right to Read bill, which reflects the goals of Redwood Literacy's programming.

Q: $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'] always gives primary IP of server not actual running server IP in php On my server 10 IPs are available. Each time running automatically changes the running IP among that ten IP. The below code always returns the primary IP of my server not the actual running IP of the server.
<?PHP
echo $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'];
?>

How to get the actual running IP of my server?

A: Try this,
function getIPAddress() {

 if(!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'])) {
            $ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'];
    }

elseif (!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])) {

Following revelations published by the BBC that Scottish councils could be wasting a fortune by importing food for school dinners which could easily be sourced locally, Education Secretary John Swinney has announced that a review of school meal standards will take place across the country.
"School food matters, in terms of what children eat and what they learn about. With almost 366,000 school meals served up in Scottish schools every day we must ensure nutritional standards are the best they can be.
"I also want children, especially primary pupils, to have as many of their 'five a day' as they can and for food to be sourced as locally as possible.
Continuing to stress the importance of the provision of adequately nutritious food in schools, health education spokesman for the Scottish Conservatives, Brian Whittle, spoke of his views on the situation, insisting that, "It's absolutely appalling that we're not buying products for our schools and hospitals from here in Scotland.
"The short-life working group I have established is examining the scientific and technical detail of the latest evidence and advice regarding nutritional standards.

British actor-director Kenneth Branagh will be honoured for his 34-year movie career at the London Critics' Circle Film Awards in January next year.
The "Thor" director will receive the Dilys Powell Award for Excellence in Film, which is named after the late British author and critic, during an awards ceremony at The May Fair Hotel in London on January 17, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Branagh says the award means a lot to him because he met Powell before her death in 1995.
"As a young filmmaker, I had the privilege of meeting Dilys Powell. She was passionate, rigorous, humane. Her criticism was illuminating, thoughtful and bracing. This recognition in her name is a great honour to me personally and very meaningful. My sincere thanks to the Critics' Circle."
Previous recipients of the honour include Judi Dench, Helena Bonham Carter, Gary Oldman and Quentin Tarantino.

Step 9: Accept "Suncrown Villiage"
Step 10: Accept "Tomber's Supplies"
Step 12: Accept "The Plagued Coast"
Step 14: Turn in "Suncrown Village"
You do not get access to Step 10 and 12 quests until you complete "Suncrown Village" first.
Step 12: Turn in "Suncrown Village"
Step 13: Accept "Tomber's Supplies"
Step 14: Accept "The Plagued Coast"
Did you turn in The Forsaken on step 8? That is the only thing I can find as a possible prerequisite for accepting Tomber's Supplies. The Suncrown Village quest is only a prerequisite for the Goldenmist Village quest from everything I see. Also, were you at least level 10?
Yes, I did everything correctly up to Step: 10, and then no quests option available until I returned with Suncrown Village.
Both came back as "True".
Also Accept "Investigate the Amani Catacombs" is said to come from Advisor Valwyn, but I got it from Ranger Vynna at the farstrider Enclave. Also Troll Juju is now given out by Apothecary Venustus also are Farstride Enclave. You get access to both once you complete Report to Captain Helios.
Based on what WowHead's comments a lot of these quests have been moved around with 7.3.5 patch.
Last edited by shankill; January 20th, 2019 at 07:56 PM.
Playing through the Tranquillien rep guide now and can confirm the changes for quests given at Farstrider Enclave, as well as a bunch of issues I've found. I'm using version 7.0.19902.
Neither of these quests were available to me after completing every step in the guide to this point.
Step 53: Forgotten Rituals was not available to me, so I skipped it.
Step 55: Attack on Zeb'Tela was not available to me, so I skipped the step.
At step 56, as soon as I turned in Report to Captain Helios, quests Troll Juju, Investigate the Amani Catacombs and Attack on Zeb'Tala became available, so I picked them up manually.
Step 58: Accept The Traitor's Shadow, not available to me, skipped.
Moving north for step 59, Forgotten Rituals is now available to me, picked it up manually.
Step 63: Can't turn in The Traitor's Shadow as I couldn't pick it up, therefore also can't pick up Hints of the Past. Skipped.
Step 67: Can't turn in Hints of the Past, can't accept Report to Magister Kaendris. Skipped.
Step 68: A Little Dash of Seasoning not available to me, skipped.
Step 79: Can't turn in Report to Magister Kaendris, can't pick up The Twin Ziggurats. Skipped.
Step 81: Can't accept War on Deatholme. Skipped.
Step 98: Turn in Troll Juju, changed location per above.
Step 99: Turn in Investigate the Amani Catacombs, changed location per above.
Step 100: Can't collect Stone of Flame (quest item), skipped.
Step 101: Can't collect Stone of Light (quest item), skipped.
Step 103: Can't kill 6 Nerubis Centurions (quest), skipped.
Step 104: Can't kill 5 Eyes of Dar'Khan/6 Wailers (quest), skipped.
Step 108: Can't turn in The Twin Ziggurats, skipped.
Step 109: Can't turn in War on Deatholme, can't pick up Dar'Khan's Lieutenants, skipped.
Step 110: Can't pick up anything from Arcanist Janeda (quest name isn't loading), skipped.
At this point I went off-script and collected quest The Farstrider Enclave from Magister Kaendris (55.0,48.9) to see if it would unlock anything.
Turn in to Ranger Vynna, unlocked quest The Traitor's Shadow.
Turned in The Traitor's Shadow, unlocked Hints of the Past.
Turned in Hints of the Past, unlocked Report to Magister Kaendris.
Turned in Report to Magister Kaendris, unlocked The Twin Ziggurats.
Turned in The Twin Ziggurats, unlocked War on Deatholme, Dar'Khan's Lieutenants, and Captives at Deatholme from Arcanist Janeda. This leads me to believe that the quest name that wasn't loading has been removed, and the Captives at Deatholme quest is no longer offered by Apothecary Renzithen. This does make it more efficient though, as all three quests can be done with one trip to Deatholme.
Also appears that the breadcrumb quest The Farstrider Enclave is super required!
Completed these quests and turned them in, returning to the guide at step 112.
Completed step 124, turning in Bring Me Kel'gash's Head! (which awarded zero rep) and was congratulated for reaching exalted, but I'm still 1,500 rep away.
Step 83: Get Crystal Controlling Orb, completion requires having the item in my bag, as I've used it, it's now incomplete again. Not required.
Steps 110-111: Accepting and turning in the unnamed quest from Arcanist Janeda to Apothecary Renzithen. Checking Wowhead, Ren still offers this quest, but this is the only quest Janeda offers, so can confirm the unnamed one is gone.
I completed The Traitor's Destruction and received 2,500 rep which was the max I could have got (now 1,000/1,000 Exalted) and was rewarded zero rep from the WANTED quest, so can't confirm if that one would have worked instead.
Apologies for the ENORMOUS post, but I love my guides and I want them to be the best they can be. I figured if I gave enough detail, it would make it a helluva lot easier to fix the guide.
I have a ton of toons I can test an amended guide on, please let me know if you need any additional testers.
We have notified the team to look into this guide and make appropriate adjustments. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.


Ahead of the Evander Holyfield versus Asiwaju Bola Tinubu Lagos Charity Boxing Bout slated for May 25 as part of the celebrations of Lagos at 50, President of the Nigeria Boxing Board of Control Rafiu Ladipo has backed Tinubu to knock out the American.
The two fighters have been trading words ahead of the event, which will feature other high-profile fights.
The former Governor of Lagos State had said he would knock down the five times heavy weight champion Holyfield in the second round of the fight that would be refereed by Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka. Before Tinubu's comments, Holyfield had also showed off in a popular video revealing his participation in the fight, where he stated that he was ready to take on Tinubu.
"Jagaban, I am coming for you, the real deal," Holyfield said.
However, Ladipo said at a press conference on Thursday in Lagos that he was optimistic Tinubu had what it took to overcome his opponent.
"Don't be surprised if Tinubu knocks down Holyfield during the fight, I know that's what he is eyeing and he can do it because he did boxing while growing up," Ladipo stated.
The promoters of the event, ACI Entertainment and Bishop Entertainment Consult said they are very pleased with the positive feedbacks the bout has generated.
They added that they would also donate medical and relief materials worth millions of naira to the Lagos State Government and other states.
