For the Sunday night matchup between the Chiefs and Patriots, the daily fantasy site has offered a few big games with a variety of buy-ins and formats.
Tom Brady throws a pass Sunday night against the Chiefs.
The Kansas City Chiefs and the sensational rookie Pat Mahomes improved to 5-0 last week in knocking off the Jacksonville Jaguars.
It didn't take Josh Gordon long to take up residence in Tom Brady's circle of trust.
The Chiefs aren't going to finish unbeaten this season.
Everything changed in the second half. They have created the holes and the coverage for this top-ranked scoring offense.
Brady found running back James White for a 17-yard gain to start the possession. "Stick together as a team, as an offense, take control of the game, melt some of the clock away and finish it off".
Since that Monday Night Football debacle for Brady at Arrowhead on September 29, 2014, he and the Patriots have won two Super Bowls and played in three. With the Chiefs driving, and at the 15-yard line, Duron Harmon intercepted Mahomes in the end zone with 17 seconds left in the first half. The over/under is set at 58 points, and the game will air at 7:20 PM CT on NBC.
The eye test says the Chiefs look like the better team. The Patriots had the football last. It got a spark from who's become an unlikely source in recent weeks.
Brady connected with receiver Chris Hogan on consecutive plays during the drive. "I think we can play a lot better and I think that's what we plan to do". And he made that play with his legs.
They needed to possess the ball, extend drives, and that's what they did, never punting during the game. "He's had two or three sacks this year just out of great effort where he's chased the quarterback out of the pocket and ran him down along the sideline". Kelce had six catches for just 23 yards.
Suddenly, the Chiefs had the lead 33-30 and it was up to Brady, who had enjoyed so much success in the first half, to catch the kid. But the Chiefs had other plans. Hill managed 142 yards and three touchdowns during the contest. They did sort of, using 11 plays to position Gostkowski for a 39-yard field goal to put the home team up 30-26.
Alas, the Patriots kicked a field goal at the final gun to win the game at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.
Hill was showered by some beer and given the finger after he scored his third touchdown of the night. It was too big of a play in too short of a time.
The question of "Which game will you watch?" - as if the Patriots and Red Sox are an either/or proposition - is roughly as outdated as sitting in an easy chair to watch the big game on a black-and-white Magnavox. They look like they are finding themselves, as most people figured they would. You know, just like everyone predicted.
"I think it's just the excitement of it, being Sunday night, against a great team, I think he got excited". Put another way: perhaps we shouldn't be fooled by the Patriots' slow start. And it happened because Brady was at his sharpest at the most important time, and so were his targets. "They're gonna be pretty tough to stop. I think we deserved it". "That's what the football season is all about. I think we can all play a lot better, and I think that's what we plan to do". I'm a lot more comfortable with the defense.

Mighty Takeaways
15 'Habits' of People Who Witnessed 'Messy' Divorces Growing Up
Divorce can be difficult, complicated, and in a lot of cases, "messy." In her book, "Yes Please," comedian Amy Poehler used the following analogy to describe her divorce:
Imagine spreading everything you care about on a blanket and then tossing the whole thing up in the air. The process of divorce is about loading that blanket, throwing it up, and watching it all spin, and worrying what stuff will break when it lands.
When a divorce gets "messy," it's often not just the people separating who have to worry about what "stuff will break." When there are children in the mix, divorce can have detrimental effects on their emotional well-being and mental health long into adulthood.
In a study evaluating over 30 years of research on the effect divorce has on children, researchers found children of divorce were less competent in multiple areas of life including family relationships, education and future earning power.
If you are a child of divorce, you might hear findings like this and feel instantly discouraged. Though it's true that divorce can negatively impact children in the long-term, this is just one part of the story. The more important part is that recovery is possible, especially when you seek support from loved ones and professionals.
One of the most important ways we can move through grief and trauma is to talk about it. If you are struggling with the impact of a messy divorce you saw growing up, we want you to know you aren't alone. We asked our Mighty community to share things they do now because they witnessed a messy divorce growing up. Below you can read what they had to say.
No matter what your experience growing up was, it is important to remember there is help available. If you need support right now, reach the Crisis Text Line by texting "START" to 741741.
Here's what our community shared with us:
"I was 15 when my parents divorced. My sister had just left home for college so I felt really alone. Now that I have my own apartment and my own life, I still never fully unpack and keep a lot of my stuff in my car because I was constantly bounced around for the rest of my time living at home." — Celeste Q.
"I'm never getting married. My mom and dad's divorce was so messy and took six whole years. I was thrown in the middle of it all that time. Then my dad and stepmom went through a messy divorce. My dad used me as a sounding board for the entire process and I am still feeling the aftermath from it. This happened two years ago. It took me a while to forgive him." — Zoe S.
"Avoid all confrontation. It was a basic symptom due to abuse that was worsened when my adoptive family went through a split. My dad became emotionally volatile so I avoided confrontation at all costs." — Alyce R.
"Constantly paranoid my marriage won't work, my husband will cheat, my mental state will deteriorate, my husband will put his mistress before our kids, my kids will grow up confused and hurt, and the cycle will be forever. It's scary when this cycle has been happening all the way back to my great grandparents." — Tanna T.
"I will subconsciously try to sabotage my relationships because I am terrified and paranoid the other person is going to cheat on me or leave me. I tell myself I'd rather push them away on my terms and be alone than live with the torment of having them leave me because they wanted to. Basically, my mindset is 'reject them before they can reject you.' I literally cannot cope with being hurt or abandoned, so this is how I try to protect myself." — Camille J.
"Perpetually seeking the feeling of being 'at home.' I never feel like I'm home." — Tanya L.
"I married three times trying to have a perfect life…. got divorced three times and now [I] don't trust anyone." — Jazmin H.
"I never disrespect my children's father to his face or behind his back." — Angel P.
"Suggest to everyone, joking or not, that they [should] divorce/break up at even the slightest conflicts. Better to be done with it than to drag it out forever." — Corin P.
"Apologize for everything. Never feel like I'm enough." — Conor K.
"My husband and I both witnessed messy divorces and dysfunction. We agreed that if we ever had issues we couldn't work through that we would do therapy before ever considering divorce. Thankfully we've only had one really bad patch and we are doing amazing. We also avoid having big fights in front of the kids. Small arguments are fine because they need to see a healthy relationship. If it's a bad fight, which is rare, we drop the kids off at grandma's or wait until they are at school." — Tiffany A.
"Having been forced to watch parents fight and yell and [give the] 'silent treatment.' I am now super shy of arguments — even other people's. I leave the room crying when there is an argument. If you hate each other that much… just divorce." — Helen F.
"I don't always react appropriately to situations because of a messy divorce when I was a child. By that, I mean that I learned at a very young age that anger was always a go-to emotion because my parents were always angry and fighting. I had to learn as an adult that being angry all the time doesn't ever resolve any issues. I may have overcorrected in handling my anger, and sometimes just don't react at all. I don't express any anger or upset until I'm bursting at the seams. Which is really rare. Maybe once every year or year and a half my fiancé sees a fit of rage from me." — Shelby S.
"I put everyone else before myself. I bottle everything up as I don't want to push people away, especially my family. I'm also very self-sufficient as I learned to fend for myself." — Katie S.
"I keep my family together no matter what. When my partner and I go through issues I make sure we communicate as best we can so my daughter doesn't have to go through what I went through." — Parker M.

Q: Save string to integer array in Java My task is to read from the match result from text file and put it in an array. However i have to use the match result to calculate the team performance. In order to do that, i have to convert the data type of the result in the string array to int[].
Can anyone help me with this?
public LeagueMatch()
{

}
public LeagueMatch(String teamName, int[] result, String date, String opponent, int attendance,double ticketPrice,int awayFans) {
    this.teamName = teamName;
    this.result = result;
    this.date = date;
    this.opponent = opponent;
    this.attendance = attendance;
    this.ticketPrice = ticketPrice;
    this.awayFans = awayFans;
}

public LeagueMatch(String m)
{
    this.result = new int[2];
    String[] d = m.split(",");
    this.teamName=d[0];
    this.result=(d[1]); //there is an error here
    this.date=d[2];
    this.opponent=d[3];
    this.attendance=Integer.parseInt(d[4]);
    this.ticketPrice=Double.parseDouble(d[5]);
    this.awayFans=Integer.parseInt(d[6]);
}

A: I'm using the string that you gave me
       String m = "Ashton Athletic,3-2,08/01/2011,Hounslow Harriers,10905,17.50,2013" ;
   String[] d = m.split(",");
   String[] d1 = d[1].split("-") ;
   int[] result = new int[2];
   result[0]  = Integer.parseInt(d1[0]) ;
   result[1]  = Integer.parseInt(d1[1]) ;
   System.out.println(result[0]);
   System.out.println(result[1]);

This is my example you could modify it to fit in your case
it should be
String[] d1 = d[1].split("-") ;
  this.result[0]  = Integer.parseInt(d1[0]) ;
   this.result[1]  = Integer.parseInt(d1[1]) ;

Make sure that the variable int[] result is initilised

A: Try : this.result[0]=Integer.parseInt(d[1])

As our move took place in the middle of the growing season we have only managed to grow in containers this year, its been a good learning curve and we haven't done to bad, its better to have some rather than none.
Thought I better get them harvested before the weather turns at the week end and they all get blown off.
you can just see a few lemons in the background.
We haven't had massive amounts of anything but lots of small amounts, I am really looking forward to next years growing season.
How fun to see your sweet potatoes after talking about them on my blog. Really, everything looks fantastic, Dawn. Really love the look of those plums!
Not enough plums to do anything with so they are just eaten ad lib, I hope to get a couple of sweet potatoes I am not expecting anything fantastic.
Reading your post I suddenly shouted FIGS, dropped the computer and rushed outside! Our fig tree is by the chicken shed that is now empty, which means I've not been past to look at the figs and had forgotten to look for a week. There were 5 ready, two a bit over ripe but I'll still eat them. Love them and C doesn't so I get the lot!
We were given a fig tree a couple of years ago but haven't had any fruit worth picking. It's in a spot that gets sun but not for all of the day. Oh well perhaps we just need to wait a while longer.
We had 2 at the other house, the one that was in a lot of sun produced bigger figs than the one in partial shade just not as many.
We have spaghetti squash tossed in pesto and with added smoked salmon.
All looking good! Your squash look great! I'll have to pop up to my friends house who have a huge fig tree but don't like figs now I know they're ripe!
I do like fresh figs, they have such a short season get them while they are there.

Home/Health/Why does covid cause long term loss of smell? Scientists have a theory.
Why does covid cause long term loss of smell? Scientists have a theory.
The permanent loss of smell has left some Covid-19 survivors longing for the scent of their freshly bathed child or a whiff of their once favorite dish. It leaves others accustomed to the stench of garbage and accidental drinking spoiled milk. "Anosmia," as experts call it, is one of the strangest symptoms of the long-running covid — and researchers may be one step closer to figuring out what causes it and how to fix it.
A small study published online Wednesday at Scientific Translational Medicine and led by researchers from Duke University, Harvard and the University of California, San Diego, offers a theory and new insight into the long-term loss of smell.
The scientists analyzed samples of olfactory epithelial tissue — where olfactory cells live — from 24 biopsies, nine of which were from post-Covid patients struggling with permanent loss of smell. Although the sample was small, the results show that the sensory deficit is linked to an ongoing immune attack on the cells responsible for smell – which continues even after the virus is gone – and a reduction in the number of olfactory nerve cells.
Bradley Goldstein, an associate professor in Duke's Department of Head and Neck Surgery and Communication Sciences and Department of Neurobiology, author of the paper, called the results "striking" and said in statement"It almost looks like an autoimmune process in the nose."
When the coffee smells like petrol: Covid doesn't just steal the senses – it can distort them
While there is research that looks at short-term smell loss and uses animal models, the new study is notable because it focuses on permanent smell loss and uses high-tech molecular analysis of human tissue.
The study reflects the enduring interest in the mysterious symptom. In July, researchers estimated that at least 5.6 percent of Covid-19 patients develop chronic olfactory problems. This study, published in the peer-reviewed medical trade publication BMJ, also suggests that women, as well as those who had more severe initial dysfunction, were less likely to regain their sense of smell. The elderly are also particularly vulnerable, The Post claims reported.
Earlier this month, anot a small study of covid-19 patients It has been suggested that long-term olfactory dysfunction may lead to changes in brain regions corresponding to olfaction. Research published in Februaryon which the Duke study is based, found that people who died of covid-19 had fewer membrane-embedded odor-detecting receptors than expected.
Loss of smell can have significant consequences. It's a threat detection mechanism, from the gas stove you accidentally left on to the stomach-churning smell of a rotten egg. And it is a feeling closely related to memories.
Carol Yan, an otolaryngologist and head and neck surgeon at the University of California, San Diego as well as an author of the new study, has treated patients with permanent loss of smell. "It's pretty devastating for them. And many times, at that point, it's been more than two years of loss of smell," she says. "They wonder, 'Why me?' Why do I still have a loss of smell compared to so many of my friends, colleagues, family members who have recovered?'
Doctors are struggling to explain what causes it. "Clinically, when you look at these patients and look into their noses, everything looks pristine," she says. "So it's happening at the molecular level."
What it's like to suffer from the strangest symptom of the coronavirus
The study offers some hope, Yang says, because while some have suggested that the olfactory deficit is related to the central nervous system, this research offers evidence that at least part of the problem is due to inflammation in the nose, where the virus first attacked. This could mean there is potential for an easier, topical treatment.
For Yang, research on the localized immune response supports others research she has done in platelet-rich plasma as a treatment for loss of smell. "What we found in the clinical trial was actually that PRP was more likely to improve outcomes for Covid 19-related loss of smell compared to placebo," she says, cautioning that PRP, which has anti-inflammatory properties , is not a "magic bullet" and needs more research – but it looks promising.
And the stakes are high. With smell, Jan says, comes your ability to enjoy food and the environment around you. It even affects how you relate to others. "I've had patients actually come to see me and say, 'I'm a little embarrassed to come see you. I didn't think it was a big deal. I just lost my sense of smell, but it greatly affected my quality of life."

Contur Software awarded prestigious contract from Mount Sinai School of Medicine
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, December 28, 2010. – Contur Software joins PRIME, a Research Program funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), as informatics partner. The goal of PRIME is to develop a platform for improved modeling of immune processes.
PRIME (Program for Research on Immune Modeling and Experimentation) is a research collaboration between Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Princeton University, Yale University, Ohio State University, BioAnalytics Group LLC and Contur Software AB. The main goal of PRIME is to develop computational models for the response of human dendritic cells to pathogenic viral infection, and to provide education in computational immunology to researchers from various research fields.
A success factor in previous PRIME work has been the use of the electronic laboratory notebook ConturELN from Contur Software, implemented in 2008, for capturing experimental data used in the modeling of immune processes. The Contur subcontract extends over a period of five years and will be used to adapt the electronic laboratory notebook system and deploy a platform that bridges the gap between researchers and modelers.
ConturELN will be used by all participating groups in order to capture and share experimental results and conclusions. The overall design of experiments covers seven pandemic and seasonal viruses, such as the pandemic 2009 H1N1 influenza virus. Through data models and laboratory experiments the aims are to further increase the understanding of innate immune responses to these viruses.
"Using ConturELN in the previous project was very successful", says Professor Stuart Sealfon, PI at Mount Sinai School of Medicine." The system has made documenting the experiments easy for the scientists. We are looking forward to the next step of the project, in which more detailed connections to the underlying modeling database will be made", Professor Sealfon concludes.
The user interface of the electronic laboratory notebook will be adapted to automatically connect to the central database, so that the user may easily select suitable protocols and templates for data upload. The deliverables from Contur Software also include maintenance and support.
"We are proud to have become members of the PRIME project, The award will enable us to further develop the ConturELN platform to better support immunology research and also confirms our position as a leading ELN provider in the United States", says Thomas Rozlucki, CEO at Contur Software.

One Man's Efforts for World Peace and Freedom: The Dalai Lama Essay
Rating: Powerful Essays
The twenty-first century exemplifies many international revolutions, signifying an overthrowing of current governments. Protests have led to an eruption of political wars and turmoil in Egypt, Syria, and Libya for the common goal of reforming and reclaiming their respective countries. However, one nation that has suffered a variety of predicaments and difficulties on a scale even greater than these Middle Eastern nations is Tibet. Until 1949, Tibet was once an independent territory that functioned as the sanctuary for Tibetan Buddhism, but coveting Tibet's vast natural resources and strategic location in Central Asia, the Chinese invaded, causing many to leave in exile, including their spiritual leader the Dalai Lama (A Brief Biography). Nonetheless, as a Nobel Peace Prize laureate in 1989, the Dalai Lama promotes religious tolerance, universal responsibility, and liberation for Tibet.
Before becoming the 14th Dalai Lama, Lhamo Thondup, was born on July 6, 1935 in a small village located in Taktser, Amdo, in northeastern Tibet. He was born into an agricultural family sustained by barely, buckwheat, and potatoes (A Brief Biography). Along with his birth, his mother described how he was not an ordinary boy and how he claimed descent from heaven (Morgan 21). When Lhamo was three years old, the Thirteenth Dalai Lama had passed away, and the search for the new reincarnation commenced. Various signs and visions led the Regent, a senior lama, to Lhamo Thondup in order to test him (From Birth to Exile); moreover, the test specifically tested whether Lhamo could choose the personal items of the previous Dalai Lama from a group of items laid in front of him. Correctly choosing all of the items of the previous Dalai Lama, Lhamo Thondup was...

The Reporters Without Borders World Press Freedom Index Essay
- The Reporters Without Borders World Press Freedom Index ranks the performance of 180 countries according to a range of criteria. This index ranked the United States at 49th place out of 180 countries, which can be contributed to their high abuse score. Other countries compared to the US was 47th-Niger and 51st-Taiwan. These two countries were used to compare to the United States because of their ranking was close to the US and they had abuse scores.

Essay on Charlemagne's Efforts to Unify Christianity
- During the beginning of Charlemagne's imperial reign, the Church was full of inconsistencies and unorthodox practices. Clergy from different areas practiced the faith in different ways because many of the texts they used were badly translated and contained errors.1 Charlemagne would receive letters, detailing monks prayers, that contained both "correct thoughts and uncouth expressions"2 He was worried that if they could not write correctly, then they might be misinterpreting the bible and God would not be honored....

Toussaint was freed from slavery at around the age of 33 and colonial records show that he became a land and slave owner himself"(History.state.gov). Toussaint then later in 1789 led the slaves out of slavery defeating the French.

Essay on The Real Tragedy Of The Poor Is The Poverty Of Their Efforts
- Adam Smith said, "The real tragedy of the poor is the poverty of their efforts." People struggle through tangled obstacles everyday in the gust of heat; unfortunately, they receive little appreciation. Ho Chi Minh is a hectic city labeled with hardship: a rampaging crowd and varieties of weather; blood lusting bugs and sweaty half naked Asians; the streets of a disposal site and the dark secrecy of gambling.

- Why is it that the people who have never used a gun or know how to are the ones trying to explain them and are making the rules about gun control.

Although many people have never held or operated a firearm, many citizens only see guns as dangerous, bad or worthless; however, they are, in fact, very useful, protective, and extremely valuable.

In Virgina Woolf's third chapter of her essay "A Room of One's Own," Woolf addresses the plight of the woman writer, specifically during the Elizabethan time period of England.

more attractive. Built with a mix of yellow and red brick, it is only four storeys high with a front elevation broken up with square bays, balconies and some arts and crafts style decoration.
The blocks were built by the Hayles Charity which today is part of the Walcot Foundation based in Lambeth. Its origins go back to the mid seventeenth century when St Mary's Church in Lambeth had acquired a surplus of £300 and it was decided to use this surplus to help the poor of the parish. Six acres of land in St George's Fields, just over the parish boundary within the parish of St George the Martyr, was purchased in 1671 from Robert Hayle, a haberdasher and citizen of London, and his wife Ann. At that time, the land was just an open field.
By 1850 the whole estate had been built upon by developers who had leased parcels of land within the estate on building leases. The charity's income was spent on the Royal Infirmary for Children and Women at Waterloo, medical aid for poor persons, pensions to 28 deserving persons, and maintenance and support of infants, or ragged free evening schools. When the leases expired, the land, along with any houses that had been built, reverted to the charity. Usually these houses came to the charity in a dilapidated and unsanitary condition.* In the early 1880s, the houses on the east side of Elliott Row had reverted to the charity and whilst repair was investigated as an option, by 1883 it had been decided that as the houses were structurally incapable of repair and referred to in the Charity's minutes as "dilapidated hovels", they would be demolished and new houses constructed that would be aimed at letting to the "better classes of artizans". But with an eye to improving income from the estate for the charity, it was later decided that a block of artizans' dwellings would be built instead of houses. The architects Waring and Nicholson calculated that a block of apartments would be able to accommodate 720 people instead of only 375 persons in houses similar to those on the western side of Elliott's Row built seven years earlier.
The entire Hayles Estate, which as well as Elliott's Row also included Hayles Street and some buildings on St George's Road, was put up for sale in 1978 in seven lots. The sales particulars state "The Trustees, although registered as a Charity, are not a Housing Charity and, under the terms of the Trust, the continued ownership of this estate cannot be justified, hence the sale." The asking prices for the entire freehold was £750,000 and it was stated that many of the flats and houses required improvement to provide full modern amenities. The purchaser was Southwark Council and much of the estate is now in private hands. It falls within a conservation area.
*This was a frequent occurence for land-owners after the 19th century house building boom in London. See also Octavia Hill in Walworth.
Elliott's Row Pocket Park on the Corner of Elliott's Row and St George's Road began as a guerilla gardening project on neglected land in 2012 but soon acquired the backing of Southwark Council.

The Hagerstown Police Department got stung during a Friday afternoon kickball match with the swarming Bees of Winter Street Elementary School.
Although the score wasn't kept, the Bees seemed to mark up points at will — sometimes with the help of police officers who carried their half-pint opponents across home plate.
Teacher Jennifer Redding, coordinator of the Hagerstown school's Positive Behavior Intervention Support program, said not all of the students got a chance to play.
She said the Winter Street team was comprised of students from kindergarten through the fifth grade who exhibited good behavior throughout the year.
Fifth-grader Saravina Brown made the team this year after sitting out the game in 2011.
Third-graders Skyler Chaney, Jose Rodriguez and Krystlynn Wysling said they liked the event because it gave them a chance to get out of the classroom.
"I just like being outside. It's a nice cool day," Krystlynn said.
The officers came out on their day off to participate in Friday's game. They purposely dropped fly balls, flubbed grounders and missed throwing out their tiny targets to prolong the game so everyone would get a chance to play.
Officer Tim Rossiter, a 22-year veteran on the force, said the game is a fun way to interact with the students.
He said he wanted to play in the game last year but had an overtime assignment.

The Further Chronicles of Conan is a collection of fantasy novels written by Robert Jordan featuring the sword and sorcery hero Conan the Barbarian, created by Robert E. Howard.  The book was first published in hardcover in October 1999 by Tor Books, with a trade paperback edition following in September 2004 from the same publisher. It collects three novels previously published by Tor.

Contents
 Conan the Magnificent
 Conan the Triumphant
 Conan the Victorious

Reception
Reviewer Bob Byrne writes that "it seems to be generally agreed that Jordan's works are among the best of the non-Howard efforts (of course, some will disagree)." In his own reading of the collection, "this Conan is not the comedian-ish version portrayed by Ah-nuld S. in the two movies, and "a bit more of the noble savage and less of the wild barbarian than I expected." He finds Jordan's writing "nicely descriptive without being quite as wordy as he grew to be in the latter half of the Wheel of Time series."

Mixers are a big part of startup culture. Here's why I've abandoned them.
It's not the first time I've been asked that question.
Just about every time there's a startup mixer or business networking event in Providence, friends ask me why I never showed up.
Today, I want to answer that question.
But first, a caveat to head off the "but I met my co-founder/lead investor/husband/wife at a networking event" comments: just because I don't like networking events and haven't gotten huge value from them, doesn't mean that they won't work for you. They might.
But after more than a decade of attending them, I don't go to networking events anymore, and here's why.
I know that sounds backwards.
Everyone is in one place, so it's like fish in a barrel, right?
Yes, networking events bring people together. But then what happens?
The people that everyone wants to connect with get bombarded with noise from all directions, and everyone else is slowly picked off by those who are only there to pitch their products or services to anyone who will listen.
I've often found myself leaving startup mixers with a pile of business cards printed with names that I couldn't put a face to if I tried.
Networking events prioritize quantity. But I'd rather spend an hour making a meaningful connection with one person over coffee than spending that hour shaking five hundred hands.
Most people at networking events are talking about work.
That makes sense; after all, most people are there to make professional connections.
But that's also very dangerous, because it makes you feel like you're actually doing work.
Networking feels like work. And you can make the argument that it is.
But what other work are you trading off to do it?
Could your time be better spent talking to your customers? Or working on your marketing strategy? Or doing high-level thinking about your business? Or trying to make connections with influencers in other, more targeted ways?
Or spending time with your family or friends? Or working out? Or playing?
Or getting some sleep, or anything else that will help you better balance your life and be more productive in the work time that you do have?
Don't default to going to networking events just because it feels like work. Think carefully about the tradeoffs, and decide if it's worth it.
But, What if I Miss Out on That One Huge Connection?
I see this outlook a lot.
When you're a startup, one big connection—the right investor, the right huge customer, the right co-founder—can make or break your business, right?
How many times have you gone to a networking event?
For me, that answer is at least 75.
Now, how many times have you made game-changing connections there?
For me, that would be zero.
But, let's say your batting average is better than mine, and that you've made a big connection.
Assuming you spent three hours per event (two hours at the event plus an hour commuting back and forth), that's 225 hours for one connection.
Nearly 6 full-time work weeks.
If my priority were to make an important connection, I'm pretty confident that I can do a lot better than one win in six weeks of working non-stop. We connected with over 100 influencers in two weeks of executing on our outreach strategy for the blog.
In six weeks, we could scale that to 300 or more (since the research work is frontloaded), for 300x better results!
Fear of missing out is a natural thing to feel, but when you run the numbers, the costs don't justify themselves.
Most of the networking events that we go to are full of people just like ourselves: startup and small business folks looking to network (or people looking to sell us something).
I've seen many founders use these as a crutch to build their self-esteem by bragging about all of their "wins" (that may or may not be real).
They'll tell you about their massive growth numbers (that may or may not be real).
They'll tell you about the big investor they're talking to (that may or may not be real).
They'll tell you about the partner they just signed up (that may or may not be real).
They'll tell you about how all of the non-stop hustle they're putting in (that may or may not be real) is really paying off.
The result is something like Facebook syndrome: if you spend too much time on Facebook, makes you think that all of your friends are living large on vacation, or building million-dollar businesses from the beach, while you're toiling away at your desk.
It's founder syndrome, it makes you think that everyone around you is doing better than you are, and it will eat you alive if you let it.
Networking events bring on founder syndrome like nothing else.
Look, making valuable connections is important. Meeting people who can help you grow in business and in life is one of the best ways to learn more and succeed faster and bigger.
But there are better ways to do it than going to startup mixers.
First, doing something notable that makes people want to network with you. Build something that creates value for people. Publish something that helps your market for free. Or simply do something valuable for the people you want to connect with.
Second, target the influencers that you want to connect with on a personal level, away from all of the noise.
For me, this approach has led to better connections on a more consistent basis than any event or conference I've ever attended.
Ultimately, the way you grow your business is up to you.
And maybe networking events have helped you, or will help you at some point in the future.
But I haven't found them valuable, or at least not nearly as valuable as the other things I've chosen to focus on.
I hope that this post makes you think twice about RSVP'ing to that next mixer, and gives you some ideas for what to do instead.

Former FIFA officials Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini face corruption trial
Sepp Blatter and Michel Platini will go on trial for fraud and other offences, Switzerland's federal criminal court has said.
The former FIFA officials will face a Swiss federal court in June after more than six years of criminal proceedings.
Blatter — who served as FIFA President from 1998 to 2015 — is accused of authorising FIFA to pay Platini 2 million Swiss francs (€1.98 million) in 2011.
Platini had made a written request to FIFA to be paid a backdated additional salary for working as a presidential adviser in Blatter's first term in office.
Blatter, 86, and Platini, 66, have both denied wrongdoing and say they had a verbal agreement for 20 years over the payment.
When Blatter cleared the FIFA payment in 2011 he was preparing to campaign for re-election in a contest against Mohamed bin Hammam of Qatar, where Platini's influence with European voters was seen as a key factor.
"The evidence gathered by the (Swiss Attorney General's Office) has corroborated that this payment to Platini was made without a legal basis," federal prosecutors said last year.
The allegations revealed by Swiss federal prosecutors in September 2015 removed Blatter as FIFA president and ultimately ended Platini's campaign to succeed him.
Platini was also ousted as UEFA president after he was banned from football because of the payment.
Blatter has been charged with fraud, mismanagement, misappropriation of FIFA funds and forgery of a document, while Platini is accused of fraud, misappropriation, forgery and as an accomplice to Blatter's alleged mismanagement.
They face up to five years in jail each if convicted of the fraud and forgery charges.
Although Blatter had been under suspicion since 2015, Platini was not placed under formal investigation until 2020.


This article discusses how fertility relates to social status with the use of a new dataset, several times larger than the ones used so far. The status-fertility relation is investigated over several centuries, across world regions and by the type of status-measure. The study reveals that as fertility declines, there is a general shift from a positive to a negative or neutral status-fertility relation. Those with high income/wealth or high occupation/social class switch from having relatively many to fewer or the same number of children as others. Education, however, depresses fertility for as long as this relation is observed (from early in the 20th century).
Before the onset of fertility decline, individuals of higher social standing have frequently been identified to have more children compared to individuals of lower social standing (Betzig 1986, Razi 1980, Sogner, Randsborg and Fure 1984). With a decline in fertility levels, however, high status has often been found to be associated with relatively low fertility (e.g., Coale and Watkins 1986, Cochrane 1979, Haines 1992, Jejeebhoy 1995), although some studies argue that the fertility-status relation remain positive (Fieder et al. 2005, Hull and Hull 1977, Stys 1957, Wrong 1958).
Italy is an example of a country where the status-fertility relation switched from positive to negative. Livi Bacci (1977) studies three Italian cities from the 15th to the 18th centuries and find a positive relation between status and childbearing outcomes for all of them. For example in Florence in 1427, poor 30-34 year old women had 3.0 children; the middle income group had 3.6, while the richest had 4.9 children. Observations from 20th century Italy, however, show a negative relation between fertility and occupational rank/educational length (FFS 2006, Jones 1982).
Bardet (1983) is a rare study that actually shows how the status-fertility relation between identical groups' switches from positive to negative over time. Bardet studies marital period fertility of four social classes from 1670 to 1789 in Rouen, France. The two lower classes, the Artisans and the Ouvriers, had about 6 children in 1670, decreased their fertility slightly first from around 1730, ending at around 5 children in 1789. However, the higher classes; the Notables, Boutiquiers and Employés, had more than 7 children in 1670, but substantially decreased their fertility from around 1700 and by 1789 had only around 4 children.
In spite of the considerable academic interest in the status-fertility relation, there exists no study that reviews more than a fraction of the available evidence. In this investigation a dataset several times larger than the ones used so far is collected.2 The dataset is used to study the impact of fertility variation by status over time and during the demographic transition. I investigate to which extent fertility decline is initiated by elites and later imitated by the rest of the population. I also test whether the status-fertility differences eventually converge when fertility levels reach replacement levels and below.
I conduct separate analyses of fertility by status measures (education, occupation/social class/rank in a social hierarchy, income/wealth) and world region. This is done to investigate how the same status measure can affect childbearing differently across periods and socio-economic circumstances. For example, being wealthy in a pre-industrial rural setting can have made it easier to set up a new home and marry at a young age, while in a modern urban industrialized context, wealth could be related to higher consumption aspirations, which ?may depress fertility. I also study fertility trends for all status measures combined. This is done to investigate how changes to the concept of status over time can have very different fertility implications.

(CD) — While most Americans still want to stay put, the number of U.S. citizens—particularly young women—who would leave the country if they could has increased dramatically under President Donald Trump, according to new Gallup polling results.
Released Friday as part of the Gallup World's Poll, the survey found that while only 11 percent and 10 ten percent wanted to leave the county under former presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, respectively, that number surged to 16 percent in 2018 under Trump.
While these figures fall in line more or less with global averages of other developed nations in the world, and Gallup notes there's not likely to be a mass migration out of the United States any time soon, the number do put an emphasis on the current president's low favorability and approval ratings.

Slim in 6 is a weight loss curriculum that was developed by Beach Body. The Slim In 6 business offers other weight reduction systems such as P90X, Hip Hop Abs, Rockin' Body and Turbo Jam. The intended purpose of Slim in 6 is to "reshape your body in six weeks." This weight loss program incorporates "the science of Slim Training." This is stated on the official website to be a mixture of mild resistance moves and cardio movements. Slim in 6 aims to assist dieters with fat burning, body toning and muscle sculpting fitness routines. A spotlight is placed on the thighs, buttocks and abdominal muscles.
The Beach Body website claims that various consumers lose up to 25 pounds in the initial six weeks of this program. Slim in 6 includes three exercise instructional DVDs, a success guide, a nutritional guide, a progress schedule, free online admission, a tape measure to keep track of results, an "Ab" DVD, a "6-Day Express Diet Plan" and a stretching DVD. Slim in 6 is made available with a six-week money-back/satisfaction pledge. This diet plan sells via the official website for three installments of $19.95, and it seems consumers can opt to pay the full price at the time of purchase. There are various success stories and before/after pictures offered on the Beach Body website.
Slim in 6 is essentially a fitness program that is marketed predominantly toward women. Unlike a number of other fitness programs, Slim in 6 places a focus on toning the thighs, abs and buttocks. The official website claims that in six weeks you'll see sizeable results (25 pounds of weight loss can be anticipated.) This weight reduction system comes with three workout DVDs, a nutritional guide, online access, a calendar to keep track of progress, a step-by-step success guidebook and a tape measure to help you. Slim in 6 sells for three monthly installments of $19.95 (around $60). Slim in 6 does not involve the use of diet pills.
Slim in 6 can be easily and expediently bought through the official web site. There is a 6-week money-back/satisfaction guarantee made available with Slim in 6. Slim in 6 incorporates an expected time frame for weight loss results.
There are no hunger suppressants incorporated into the Slim in 6 weight loss plan. Slim in 6 seems to be principally well-matched for women only. There are no fat burners made available with Slim in 6. Slim in 6 calls for quite a transformation in daily life, which may be too dire for some individuals. The official web site says to check with a doctor previous to getting started with Slim in 6.
Like countless other weight loss plans, Slim in 6 makes the Slim in 6 system fitness DVD's requiring either a one-time purchase of the weight loss system instructions or payment in 3 different parts. Nonetheless, the considerably harsh life change involved with this plan may verify to be too rigorous for some dieters. There are no craving suppressants or metabolic boosters provided in this program, so it's pretty much the same as other exercise plans. Naturally it's a prudent idea to confer with your physician before to starting a weight loss program like Slim in 6. Noticeably the most difficult part of any strenuous exercise program is getting, staying and keeping the compulsory motivation to actually exercise day in and day out. Ultimately the Slim in 6 weight loss claims appear out of line when considering FTC guidelines of no more than 2 pounds weight loss per week. Anything in excess of this can be unsafe.


SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Authorities say three snowmobile riders were able to get themselves out of a lake in rural Utah after their two snowmobiles went through thin ice.
KUTV-TV reports the incident occurred Saturday at Strawberry Reservoir, about 57 miles (91 kilometers) southeast of Salt Lake City.
One person was on one snowmobile while another man and his wife were on the other.
After getting out of the lake, they called for help and were treated by Wasatch County Search and Rescue.
The snowmobiles remained in the lake.

Hope you all had a fun weekend. Ours was low-key; but still fun. I was completely and shamefully lazy on Saturday; but I did do some crafting. Yesterday, we made Halloween cookies and played the Wii in the afternoon and I was able to make this card for Viva La Verve's sketch for week 3 October. It took me all day to do it! LOL because I did a little and then stopped and then came back and just tweaked it more and more. I finally got it finished and I have to say, I really like the end result. A few weeks ago, I took advantage of the sale that 2 Peas was having on 6x6 paper Pads. I bought 4 Christmas pads and 4 other pads. The one I used on this card is from Jillibean Soup "Dutch Mustard Soup" pad. I love the greens and browns,oranges and yellows in this collection. I used Verve's "You and I" set along with the "I Heart U" Die Set. I also used some Real Juicy Orange Sparkly Fluff from Our Craft Lounge just to dazzle things up a bit.
Wow this is really nice love all the different tones and textures.Thanks for joining in at PanPastel Uk this week.
A fantastic card, love it. Thanks for joining in at panpastel.
Great card, love the use of the buttons.
Oh all those wonderful mixes and matches of colors and shapes are just gorgeous. Thanks for sharing it with us at Catered Crop.

Ashura celebrations were took place in our community centre on 25th February 2007 in Sheffield. The program had different activities such as, Ashura cooking competition, testing delicious Turkish foods, traditional music concert and Speeches on Ashura. The famous Turkish football player Emre Belozoglu playing in United New Castle also joined the event. Enthusiasm in the centre overflowed outside that about 300 hundred people celebrated the day of Ashura. Especially children and women were so happy because of the activities and keep in touch with community. The program finished with Emre`s speech and giving photos to his fans.

Q: Force Python to run in a single thread I am using Python with the Rasbian OS (based on Linux) on the Raspberry Pi board. My Python script uses GPIOs (hardware inputs). I have noticed when a GPIO activates, its callback will interrupt the current thread.
This has forced me to use locks to prevent issues when the threads access common resources. However it is getting a bit complicated. It struck me that if the GPIO was 'queued up' until the main thread went to sleep (e.g. hits a time.sleep) it would simplify things considerably (i.e. like the way that javascript deals with things).
Is there a way to implement this in Python?

A: Use a Queue from the multithreading module to store the tasks you want to execute. The main loop periodically checks for entries in the queue and executes them one by one when it finds something.
You GPIO monitoring threads put their tasks into the queue (only one is required to collect from many threads).
You can model your tasks as callable objects or function objects.

A: Are you using RPi.GPIO library? Or you call your Python code from C when a callback fires?
In case of RPi.GPIO, it runs a valid Python thread, and you do not need extra synchronization if you organize the threads interaction properly.
The most common pattern is to put your event in a queue (in case of Python 3 this library will do the job, Python 2 has this one). Then, when your main thread is ready to process the event, process all the events in your queue. The only problem is how you find a moment for processing them. The simplest solution is to implement a function that does that and call it from time to time. If you use a long sleep call, you may have to split it into many smaller sleeps to make sure the external events are processed often enough. You may even implement your own wrapper for sleep that splits one large delay into several smaller ones and processes the queue between them. The other solution is to use Queue.get with timeout parameter instead of sleep (it returns immediately after an event arrives into the queue), however, if you need to sleep exactly for a period you specified, you may have to do some extra magic such as measuring the time yourself and calling get again if you need to wait more after processing the events.


In this article, an alternate paradigm for quantifying downside risk for the retail investor is proposed. It is the goal of this paradigm to provide concrete tools to the retail financial advisor and investor that can be used to understand portfolio risks within a financial planning context. Rather than utilizing general risk metrics, which can be difficult to communicate and make specific, this article proposes risk metrics which are made specific to an investor's portfolio and understood in the context of the investor's financial plan. The objectives of this proposed paradigm are fourfold: 1) to provide a required rate of return for a portfolio within the context of a financial planning goal; 2) to create an expectation for a range of portfolio returns over time; 3) to calculate a maximum sustainable loss for a portfolio, defined as the amount of portfolio losses which would cause material change to the investor's plan; and to develop a strategy for hedging away those excessive losses identified. Also proposed are tools for achieving these objectives: 1) the Modified Required Rate of Return; 2) the Maximum Sustainable Loss; and 3) a Range of Returns by Portfolio Allocation table.

Q: How many divisions needed for LU Decomposition of a square matrix If a general matrix is of dimensions $n \times n$, how many divisions are needed to compute the LU Decomposition of this matrix?
Can we say zero divisions are needed (it can be done with only multiplication and addition/subtraction)? Or should we say that $n-1$ divisions are needed in order to compute each multiplier?

A: To get $U$, you have to eliminate $n(n-1)/2$ terms below the main diagonal. Each elimination requires computing the row multiplier, which involves division by the pivotal element.
Implementing this verbatim, one gets $n(n-1)/2$ divisions. However, as Algebraic Pavel notes, one can compute the reciprocal of the pivot first, and then the rest is multiplication. Hence, $n-1$ divisions.
The subsequent computation of $L$ involves no divisions.
