Abstract: The causal factors of professional success are many and varied. When viewed in a complex matrix they form an individuality that is instantly recognized. Biological make-up is clearly the first of them. From this one obtains intelligence and a large measure of one's personal characteristics. The next factor is the formative relationships provided by parents, family and their immediate associates, since they help to stimulate the in-born intelligence and characteristics and to build an alert, motivated and independent mind. Then there is the broad cultural background in which the individual grows up, the contacts that are made, the opportunities that present themselves, the decisions taken, and the misfortunes that stimulate or the good fortune that deflects. The vicissitudes of life affected Ferdinand Ries as much as other men, and it is possible to draw from the available evidence a sketch of their effect on him, and the contribution they enabled him to make to his profession. Ferdinand Ries was born into a family of some musical talent. His grandfather Johann Ries (1723-1784) was the youngest of ten children born in Bensheim am Rhein; his father, Johann Michael Ries died there on 29 October 1729. Johann Ries was appointed a court trumpeter in Bonn on 2 May 1747 with an annual salary of 192 Taler, and as a violinist in the electoral court chapel on 5 March 1754. His father's sister, Anna Maria Ries, who was born on 9 May 1751, was a talented singer. She was appointed a soprano in the electoral court on 27 April 1764. In 1774 she married Ferdinand Drewer, a violinist in the court orchestra, and they both remained in the court music until its dissolution in 1794.


New Computer, new Oculus install, copy old downloaded games.
Sorry if this is already posted, but can't find it.
Just got new PC. have all my games on a HDD, and want to copy them to a hdd on my new computer. I've set games install folder to M:Oculus, I've created a folder called Software, then copied the old games folders into that (software, manifests, downloads and staging folders).
other games show not installed, but give the finish installation option. but then nothing happens.
I can see that there are lots of updates but when i press continue on an update I get the option to install, but then nothing happens.
What is the way that i can move games to a newly installed oculus?
or do i need to download 115GB of games again?
Oh no. I'm getting this same issue.
I got a new RIFT and PC, copied my games and they show up and when I go to run them, they say "install", when I install they download, which is really fast so there is no way it could actually be downloading, then goes to install and then pops up with the error "Could not install [insert game name here] Please contact Oculus Support for help"
Here's a link to the very well hidden guide for backing up and restoring.

Q: Replace HTML closing tags with HTML tags + \n Analysis I need to replace HTML closing tags with HTML tags + \n. I've found this SO answer
var regex = new RegExp("(</.*?>)", "gi");

strContent = strContent.replace(regex, "$1 \n   ")
                   .replace(/\/>/g,'/> \n    ');

Could someone explain to me what is happening in the above code? Why is a regex declared then replaced? What does each part mean?

A: The first regex (</.*?>) is searching for all closing tags of the form </span> or </div> and selecting the tag as a group. This group is replaced with the group as found plus a new line.
The second regex, /\/>/ is looking for the last two characters of tags that are of the form <img /> or <input />. The \ is escaping the second /. Then  those two characters are replaced with the same characters plus a new line.

A: It's the regex replace function.
It can also be written like this:
strContent = strContent.replace(new RegExp("(</.*?>)", "gi"), "$1 \n   ").replace(/\/>/g,'/> \n    ');

Does that make more sense?
The author decided to declare the Regex object seperately an then referenced it later as input to the Replace method
I can only speculate, but I guess it was done for debugging reasons.

Q: How would you create a progress bar with AJAX/jQuery for downloading XML content? I apologize if this is a rather simple answer, but I've been stuck on it for a while. Currently I have an XML file where users can add images, audio files, and text in a multitude of ways. In case the file becomes large, I'd like for the page to require a progress bar.
I have found numerous tutorials on creating progress bars for uploads, for PHP files, and styling them, but I haven't found anything for monitoring the percentage of an XML file that has been read and processed. I've been trying to make my code work in conjunction with this tutorial, but to no luck.
My simple AJAX call:
$(document).ready(function() {
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: xmlTitle,
        dataType: "xml",
        success: parseXML
    });
});

parseXML is my function to read the XML file, and then properly display it on the HTML.
Essentially I'd like to have the code automatically show the progress bar, and on success make the progress bar disappear and show the content.
If I'm approaching this the wrong way, I'm also open for any other suggestions. Sorry again if this is a simple question, but thanks for any responses.

A: This should be enough to do it:
$(document).ready(function() {
    showProgressBar();
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: xmlTitle,
        dataType: "xml",
        success: parseXML
    });
    function parseXML(xml){
        hideProgressBar();
        ...
    }
});

If you wanted to actually update the progressbar with the real progress of the upload, you'll have to use the xhr.upload.progress event and the xhr.progress event, neither of which are implemented in jQuery because there is no workaround to make them work in IE<10.

A: If you could move to websockets, I think you'd get more ability to manage the data transfer in a single thread.
If you want traditional ajax, I think you need an approach similar to the one typically used for upload progress:
http://phpmaster.com/tracking-upload-progress-with-php-and-javascript/
Basically, poll the server and ask it how far along it is in the transfer, then report that to the user.  So you'd have your large ajax request while simultaneously polling a different small endpoint.  Your server keeps the upload progress as part of the user session.


Jos 21 | CPDV | STEP | And the leaders of the families of Levi approached Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the rulers of the extended families of each of the tribes of the sons of Israel.
1 And the leaders of the families of Levi approached Eleazar, the priest, and Joshua, the son of Nun, and the rulers of the extended families of each of the tribes of the sons of Israel. 2 And they spoke to them at Shiloh, in the land of Canaan, and they said, "The Lord instructed, by the hand of Moses, that cities should be given to us as habitations, with their suburbs to nourish our cattle." 3 And so the sons of Israel gave cities and their suburbs from their possessions, in accord with the order of the Lord. 4 And the lot went out for the family of Kohath, of the sons of Aaron, the priest, from the tribes of Judah and Simeon and Benjamin: thirteen cities. 5 And to the remainder of the sons of Kohath, that is, to the Levites who were left over, there went, from the tribes of Ephraim and Dan, and from the one half tribe of Manasseh, ten cities. 6 And next the lot went out to the sons of Gershon, so that they would receive, from the tribes of Issachar and Asher and Naphtali, and from the one half tribe of Manasseh at Bashan: the number of thirteen cities. 7 And to the sons of Merari, by their families, from the tribes of Reuben and Gad and Zebulun, there went twelve cities. 8 And so the sons of Israel gave cities and their suburbs to the Levites, just as the Lord instructed by the hand of Moses, distributing to each by lot. 9 From the tribes of the sons of Judah and Simeon, Joshua gave cities, whose names are these: 10 to the sons of Aaron, of the families of Kohath of the stock of Levi, (for the first lot went out for them,) 11 the city of Arba, the father of Anak, which is called Hebron, on the mountain of Judah, and its surrounding suburbs. 12 Yet truly, the fields and its villages he had given to Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, as a possession. 13 Therefore, he gave to the sons of Aaron the priest, Hebron as a city of refuge, as well as its suburbs, and Libnah, with its suburbs, 14 and Jattir, and Eshtemoa, 15 and Holon, and Debir, 16 and Ain, and Juttah, and Beth-shemesh, with their suburbs: nine cities from two tribes, just as has been said. 17 Then, from the tribe of the sons of Benjamin, he gave Gibeon, and Geba, 18 and Anathoth, and Almon, with their suburbs: four cities. 19 All the cities together of the sons of Aaron, the priest, were thirteen, with their suburbs. 20 Yet truly, the remainder of the families of the sons of Kohath, of the stock of Levi, were given this possession: 21 from the tribe of Ephraim, Shechem, one of the cities of refuge, with its suburbs, on mount Ephraim, and Gezer, 22 and Kibzaim, and Beth-horon, with their suburbs, four cities; 23 and from the tribe of Dan, Elteke and Gibbethon, 24 and Aijalon and Gath-Rimmon, with their suburbs, four cities; 25 then, from the one half tribe of Manasseh, Taanach and Gath-Rimmon, with their suburbs, two cities. 26 All the cities were ten, with their suburbs; these were given to the sons of Kohath, of the lesser degree. 27 Likewise, to the sons of Gershon, of the stock of Levi, from the one half tribe of Manasseh, went Golan in Bashan, one of the cities of refuge, and Bosra, with their suburbs, two cities; 28 also, from the tribe of Issachar, Kishion, and Daberath, 29 and Jarmuth, and Engannim, with their suburbs, four cities; 30 then, from the tribe of Asher, Mishal and Abdon, 31 and Helkath and Rehob, with their suburbs, four cities; 32 likewise, from the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee, one of the cities of refuge, and Hammoth-Dor, and Kartan, with their suburbs, three cities. 33 All the cities of the families of Gershon were thirteen, with their suburbs. 34 Then, to the sons of Merari, Levites of the lesser degree, by their families, were given, from the tribe of Zebulun, Jokneam and Kartah, 35 and Dimnah and Nahalal, four cities with their suburbs; 36 from the tribe of Reuben, beyond the Jordan, opposite Jericho, Bezer in the wilderness, one of the cities of refuge, Misor and Jazer, and Jethson and Mephaath, four cities with their suburbs; 37 from the tribe of Gad, Ramoth of Gilead, one of the cities of refuge, and Mahanaim and Heshbon and Jazer, four cities with their suburbs. 38 All the cities of the sons of Merari, by their families and extended families, were twelve. 39 And so all the cities of the Levites, in the midst of the possession of the sons of Israel, were forty-eight, 40 with their suburbs, each distributed by families. 41 And the Lord God gave to Israel all the land that he had sworn he would deliver to their fathers. And they possessed it, and they lived in it. 42 And he gave them peace with all the surrounding nations. And none of their enemies dared to stand against them; instead, they were brought under their sovereignty. 43 Indeed, not so much as one word that he had promised to provide for them was left empty; instead, everything was fulfilled.

Ошенсайд () — третий по величине город в округе Сан-Диего, штат Калифорния, США. В городе проживает около 183 095 человек. Город расположен к югу от корпуса морской пехоты базы Кэмп-Пендлтон, военной базы Соединенных Штатов. Ошенсайд пережил значительный рост населения с 1970 года, когда его население составляло 45 000 человек. Большая часть территории города была построена в течение 1970-х и 1980-х годов.

История

Первые европейские исследователи прибыли сюда в 1769 году. Испанские миссионеры при отце Серре Хуниперо основали миссию Сан-Луис-Рей-де-Франция на месте бывшей индейской деревни Луисено на берегу Сан-Луис-Рей. В начале XIX века, введение земледелия и выпас скота изменили местный ландшафт. Территория - как и вся Калифорния - была испанской, затем, с 1821 года здесь правили мексиканцы, а в 1848 году она была завоевана США.

В конце 1850-х, Эндрю Джексон Майерс жил в Сан-Хоакин, штат Калифорния. Уроженец штата Иллинойс, он вернулся в конце 1880-х и жил на Сан-Луис-Рей. В 1882 году Майерс переехал на земли, где сегодня и стоит Ошенсайд. Документ на землю был подписан в 1883 году федеральным правительством. Датой основания считается 3 июля 1888 года. Мэрия с начала XXI века стоит на бывшей усадьбе Майерса.

В XX веке, в Ошенсайде появился городской пляж. Были построены жилые районы, центр города (1890-е годы), Южный Ошенсайд (1920-е и 1930-е года). Эти дома представляют историческую ценность. С момента создания корпуса базы морской пехоты Кэмп-Пендлтон в 1942 году, Ошенсайд был домом для личного состава вооруженных сил и военной промышленности Второй мировой войны и в 1950-х годах здесь размещались объекты производства боеприпасов. После 1970 года, основное внимание к развитию Ошенсайда было приковано к пригородному развитию.

География
Координаты Ошенсайда:  (33.211566, -117.325701).

В соответствии с Бюро переписи населения США, город имеет общую площадь 107,7 км². 105,1 км² - территория суши, а 2,5 км2(2,36%) - акватория.

Климат
Ошенсайд находится в полупустыне (по классификации климатов Кёппена BSh).

Демография

По состоянию на 2000 год в городе насчитывалось 161 029 человек, 56 488 семей, и 39 259 семей, проживающих в городе. Плотность населения составляла 1 531,7 чел./км². Существовало 59 581 единиц жилья.

В 2000 году насчитывалось 56 488 семей, из которых 35,0% имели детей, проживающих с ними, 54,1% были супружеской парой, живущие вместе.

Multiple physiological and behavioral factors that are not found in younger people combine to cause and elevate the danger presented by the cold to the elderly. For instance, elderly persons who suffer from chronic illness and take multiple medications are more vulnerable to the cold temperatures. Poor nutrition and dehydration also make the elderly more vulnerable to colder weather. The cold is also felt less by the elderly, so their ability to control their body temperatures is significantly reduced. Even if an older person does feel cold, it is shown that they tend to be more reluctant to heat their homes in order to reduce heating costs.
Although cold weather poses a higher risk for the elderly, there are plenty of tips and tricks to follow throughout the winter months in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
The cold, stormy weather is harder on an older body and can pose serious health risks. During the winter months and snowy weather, the body's temperature can drop below normal levels and cause hypothermia. Hypothermia can cause multi-system injury and a higher risk of mortality at an older age, as it is more common and harmful in the elderly community.
Like hypothermia, many other cold-weather related health risks are more harmful to older individuals when compared to younger people. Slippery streets and paths, colds, and the flu pose difficulties for seniors whose health may already be compromised by chronic illness. Slipping on something like ice and falling is a major risk for older individuals, as fractured hips have an extremely high mortality rate in elderly patients.
During the winter, it is crucial to drink a sufficient amount of water throughout the day, even if one does not feel thirsty. It is recommended to drink 8-10 glasses of water per day to maintain proper health. It is also key to know that eating and drinking warm foods and beverages can help to maintain body heat. One should avoid alcohol and caffeine, but be sure to eat frequent, light meals throughout the day.
Most importantly, the elderly community should stay active even if they cannot leave their homes. Being mobile throughout the day raises body heat and increases blood flow.
It is crucial to know and control the temperature of the dwelling. An ideal temperature should range between 68-75 degrees and can be measured by a simple thermometer. The air in a dwelling should not be too dry or too humid. Sufficient humidity is good, but too much humidity can be a cause of illness. Doors, windows, and any openings which lead to the outdoors should be properly sealed so that the house or apartment can easily maintain a proper temperature, but be sure not to restrict normal, proper ventilation as well.
Layered, warm, and comfortable clothing is important for protecting against harsh winter climates. Clothing should not restrict movement, but keep heat in. Because our metabolism is so slow in the morning due to lack of activity overnight, it is especially important to dress warmly. At night, flannel sheets, socks, and blankets can help to keep elderly individuals at a good body temperature. While it is best to stay out of the winter weather if you are an older adult, gloves and a hat are recommended in addition to a coat if one needs to brave the elements.
Even with these helpful tips, it is best to minimize the risk of falling by avoiding going outside in bad weather if at all possible.
When weather conditions are suspected to deteriorate, stock up on necessities and be prepared to be inside for at least a few days. Instead of going somewhere, invite others over, exercise, and plan indoor activities.
Cold weather does not have to be deadly to the elderly. Using common sense, following the simple tips discussed above, and being proactive with your aged friends and relatives will help ensure that they can enjoy safe and warm winters.

First aid training provides the learner with essential skills to use in related careers and various life experiences.
For Army ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corp) cadets, first aid training is even more applicable, as it focuses on tactical care.
The process varies according to the institution where cadets receive first aid training, but follows a set curriculum as established by the Army. In their first year, cadets learn about the role of the Army through its origins, traditions, customs, branches, operations, and tactics.
By sophomore year, cadets are ready to learn the role of an officer through communication, a code of conduct, principles of war, military operations/tactics, and first aid.
Training is usually an all day event, where information and scenarios are provided in the morning, and assessments for comprehension are conducted in the afternoon.
The intention of this training is to provide simulations that are as close to battlefield situations as possible.
This also means that ROTC cadets are taught life-sustaining techniques.
The objective becomes stopping the life-threatening aspect of an injury, rather than taking the time to fully treat it, because this would cause significant loss of time that soldiers do not have on the battlefield.
ROTC cadets are trained to assess situations according to risk, measuring the level of danger in relation to all affected parties. Potential minefield injuries and carbon monoxide, for example, exemplify extremely high risk.
In the case of carbon monoxide inhalation, the colorless and odorless gas presents signs through the patient's actions and appearances.
One frequently practiced first aid simulation is burn care.
Cadets must first eliminate the source by covering their patient with any non-synthetic material and rolling them on the ground.
After that, cadets need to assess the patient and the location of their burns. Any located near the neck, nose, and mouth could lead to swelling of the airway, and breathing must be monitored as a result. Cadets continue to look in nose and mouth for carbon materials or singed hair.
Next, cadets remove any jewelry or accessories from hands and fingers. Then they can treat according to the degree of burn, with careful use of ice and cold compresses, and dressings if appropriate.
They are encouraged to avoid breaking blisters and the use of grease, ointment, or dressings on the face or genitalia.
Once preliminary assessments and treatments for the burns are made, cadets must seek medical help.
This systematic approach used for carbon monoxide and burn victims is the same followed by trained cadets in any first aid situation encountered. All first aid personnel can find himself or herself making a life or death situation on a battlefield.
For ROTC cadets, training that focuses on quick, but calculated actions is essential, as their decisions could determine not only the patient's life, but also their own.
Other ROTC programs train using various simulations of environments that vary from the battlefield to a construction site, or even a peaceful stroll down a city street.
Blood loss remains the greatest cause of death on a battlefield, as often there is not the opportunity or the manpower available to treat a soldier who is bleeding out.
As a result, cadets learn how to control bleeding through various wound wrapping methods and the use of tourniquets. These are devices used by compressing a cord or tight bandage around the exposed vein or artery that is the source of the extreme blood loss.
There are also bandages that incorporate anticoagulant solutions. These bandages are essentially stuffed into an open cut, and anywhere it touches will stop the bleeding.
In addition, ROTC cadets can use compression bandages that wrap twice around the area and attach with a clip to apply pressure on open wounds.
These items and various medicinal supplements are found in the ISAK medical kit used by soldiers. Cadets are instructed to first use the medical kit of the injured.
But, regardless of the method, ROTC cadets are reminded to use minimal, yet practical, actions to ensure the wounded can make it to a hospital.
As cadets receive supervised instruction, hands-on training, and evaluations from instructors, they are developing confidence in their ability to act appropriately and quickly to treat battlefield injuries.
Whether it is through the use of dummies, their fellow cadets, or a simulation that combines both, any instance of first aid training will prove to enhance the skills and capability of an ROTC cadet.

According to a 2015 survey conducted by the Humane Society, 44% of Americans have at least one dog. Generally loving creatures, dogs are not usually seen as a large threat to humans. Occasionally, though, a dog can bite and cause harm. Dog bites are typically minimal injuries, like when a puppy may nibble on your finger or get a little over-excited when playing with you or a member of the family. In most cases, minor dog bites can normally be treated at home in order to prevent infection. The high level of bacteria in animal saliva makes infection the most common problem associated with dog bites.
Dogs typically bite in certain ways. A dog uses its front teeth to grasp in order to bite down. The other teeth will tug at the surrounding skin. The front teeth will often cause a puncture wound, or deep hole in the skin. Other types of bites will cause injuries more like an abrasion or scrape. Adults are most commonly bit on the hands, legs, arms, and feet, while smaller children are often bitten in the facial area, including their lips, cheeks, and nose.
Apply direct and persistent pressure to the wound while preparing to clean.
Clean the affected area immediately and thoroughly by using soap to cleanse, and then running it under warm water.
Apply antibiotic ointment to reduce the risk of infection, and then cover with a sterile bandage.
A bleeding wound is good. If the affected area is not bleeding, encourage it. The flowing blood will prevent bacteria from entering the body and infecting it.
It is then advised to take some sort of over-the-counter pain relief, such as ibuprofen or Advil. This will also reduce inflammation.
Seek medical advice afterward in order to proceed, unless the dog bite is extremely minor. There is always a chance of infection.
The final, follow-up step is very important when treating a dog bite properly. A healthcare provider can get a more thorough, educated look at the wound. It is possible that your doctor will prescribe an antibiotic if the wound was not cleaned well enough. Anti-rabies treatments and tetanus shots are also possibilities if you were dealing with a stray or unknown animal. With the help of a professional, you can be sure that the bite is not infected. If there is not follow up with a professional, the bite may become infected later on and cause harmful or even deadly consequences, which could have otherwise been prevented.
If an animal draws blood, at a minimum you need to get a tetanus shot. Although most dog bites are easily treatable, there are severe instances professional medical treatment may be necessary when the bite is especially deep or profound. If the bite occurred on a sensitive area of the body like the face or thigh, or if the animal is a stray, you should definitely see a doctor. Dogs can carry an array of diseases if not regularly treated by a veterinarian.
While it is not likely, dog bites can cause major complications if any infection is not quickly treated. It is wise to seek medical help at the first sign of infection. Infected dog bites can lead to an infection of the inner lining of the heart, an infection of the outer layers of the brain, or an infection in the blood, known more commonly as blood poisoning or sepsis.

A catastrophic injury, both permanent and life-altering, is a different matter altogether. If you or a loved one has suffered a catastrophic injury, such as a head injury or a spinal cord injury, you can expect you and your family's entire lifestyle to be drastically altered. Think of Gabrielle Giffords, unable to return to her position as a U.S. senator after being shot in the head at a public political forum, or Christopher Reeve, the actor who had played "Superman" before suffering a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed for the rest of his life. Both put a face on catastrophic injuries, but many other people without financial means have suffered similar losses. Talk to an attorney at the Marrone Law Firm, LLC about your life-changing injury, whether it can be considered a serious injury or a catastrophic injury.

Jerusalem Post Annual Conference
Douglas at Jpost Conference: I want to be a part of this tribe
"This has been an extraordinary year," Douglas marveled during a sit-down interview with former Post Editor-in-Chief Steve Linde.

For two-time Academy Award winner Michael Douglas, this has been the year in which he rediscovered his secular Jewish values.
"For my entire life, I believed I was not Jewish," Douglas revealed, explaining that he was repeatedly told that being the son of a Christian mother and Jewish father excluded him from being a member of the tribe.
"I'm a secular Jew, I'm not formally religious, but I wanted to be part of this tribe. I love its values. This year has been about rediscovering Jewish values that I cherish," Douglas said to a booming round of applause at the Jerusalem Post Conference in New York on Sunday.
It's been a whirlwind year for Douglas, since he was named the second Genesis Prize Laureate in 2015. From speaking on a three-campus tour across the United States with Jewish Agency Chairman Natan Sharansky to delivering a surprise Yom Kippur speech at Temple Shaaray Tefila in Bedford Corners, New York, Douglas has certainly done a lot for the faith, for someone who grew up thinking he wasn't part of it.
"This has been an extraordinary year," Douglas marveled during a sit-down interview with former Jerusalem Post editor-in-chief Steve Linde.
His son Dylan's interest in the Jewish faith and his work with the Genesis Prize Foundation (GPF) to promote a more inclusive Judaism that embraces interfaith families has resonated with the Hollywood actor.
Douglas, GPF and the Jewish Funders Network (JFN) have worked hard to promote that cause.
In conjunction with Douglas's speech at the conference, JFN announced the benefactors of its matching grants program. Twenty eight recipients were selected to coincide with Douglas's theme of Avenues to Jewish Engagement for Intermarried Couples and their Families, with funding for these projects totaling $3.3 million.
"Today, the Jewish world opened its doors a little wider," Andrés Spokoiny, president & CEO of JFN said in a statement released before he also addressed the conference. "And the impact goes beyond these grants. The gifts being matched, as well as the whole range of amazing projects that were submitted, represent new donors and newly increased levels of giving that this area has never seen before."
The funding originally stemmed from the $1m. prize Douglas received from GPF, which was re-gifted to Hillel International and to the matching-grant initiative run by JFN.
Philanthropist Roman Abramovich donated an additional $1m., as well, as part of the matching-grant initiative.
"In the spirit of Abraham's tent, and lifting the flaps, I'm hopeful. I hope it brings Jews in the States and outside of Israel closer together," Douglas told Linde.
Douglas's son Dylan, is not the only member of the Douglas clan enamored with the faith. Douglas's father, legendary film actor Kirk Douglas, also experienced an awakening of sorts after a grizzly helicopter crash more than 20 years ago made the actor, now 99, embrace his Jewish roots.
"It gives me such nachas to see Dylan wearing the same prayer shawl that my father wore," a smiling Douglas told the crowd.
Linde did manage to catch the usually unflappable actor off guard with a question about the US Presidential election.
With the aplomb of a guy who knows how to craftily deflect an unwanted question in front of a crowd Douglas said of the election: "It certainly turned out different than what everyone anticipated!" "I'm historically a Democrat," he began cautiously.
"I've supported the Clintons for a long time. Saying that, I know Donald Trump. I play golf with him. But like a lot of situations, if you don't talk politics and religion you can get along with anyone," he concluded with a chuckle.

Each month we'll focus on the creative communities of five different US states.
When we think of Americana—things associated with the culture and history of the US—we think of open landscapes, industrial materials, and domestic crafts that conjure a sense of nostalgia. We're out of touch with artists in the Heartland, Bible Belt, Four Corners, Dakotas, and even the Pacific Northwest, but certain they are present, turning sorrows and desires into glorious manifestations of identity, truth, and liberty.
Today Creators embarks on something new: an editorial journey to learn about creativity across the United States. 50 States of Art is a yearlong editorial investigation into the art, artists, and art organizations that make up the complex cultural landscape of the USA in 2017.
To better appreciate our country at large, we'll seek to understand the localized and unique considerations artists are making throughout the country to maintain their practices, foster communities, and uphold their vocations in pursuit of a better sense of self. We want to support artists working in different mediums, ecstatic styles, and emergent genres. Each month we will focus on creative communities within five states as a litmus test to understand local demographics, politics, and cultural dynamics from an artist's frame. It is our hope that we can celebrate other Ghost Ships, herald other Pulse nightclubs, spark new creative movements, empower new hashtags.
We want to hear from you if you shoot films with your iPhone; see sculptures in shovels; choreograph dances for Instagram; carve objects by hand; manipulate your body as a canvas; acknowledge your gender as a platform; see new worlds in code; find possibility out of trash; use the lens as a mirror; consider data a medium; write memes as poetry; formulate campaigns out of GIFs. That is to say, we're looking for artists who understand the world more succinctly when it is translated into the visual and sensory realms; who refer to art, rather than politics, to learn about humanity and the state of the world.
As Rainer Maria Rilke wrote in Letters to a Young Poet, "Things aren't all so tangible and sayable as people would usually have us believe; most experiences are unsayable, they happen in a space that no word has ever entered, and more unsay able than all other things are works of art, those mysterious existences, whose life endures beside our own small, transitory life."
If any of this resonates with you, tag your work with #50StatesofArt on Instagram and email us here. We will be hunting for new American artists to cover and share on our site throughout the year. We are seeking, in earnest, to forge a path of connection.
Every month we are highlighting another five states in the 50 States of Art project. You can check back here for updates below.

TPR urges trustees to prepare for 'stronger nudge' regulations
By Jack Gray
The Pensions Regulator (TPR) in the UK has urged trustees to prepare for changes that will require them to give defined contribution (DC) pension savers a 'stronger nudge' towards booking Pension Wise appointments.
As reported by our sister title, Pensions Age, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) rules are expected to be laid this month (January) following its consultation, which was launched in July.
Trustees will be required to offer to make a Pension Wise appointment for individuals seeking to access or transfer their pension once the regulations come into force.
If 'reasonable' steps have been taken to make an appointment but no suitable date or time can be found, trustees must provide savers with details to make an appointment themselves.
Trustees will be required to ensure that savers have either received or opted out of receiving guidance.
In a blog, TPR executive director of regulatory policy, analysis and affairs, David Fairs, said that the regulator planned to produce its own guidance for trustees and administrators ahead of the new regulations coming into force.
"There is still work to do to tackle savers' apathy when it comes to engaging with their pension," Fairs wrote.
"Pension Wise fills a specific purpose well, but savers should be aware of how and when they can access the most suitable guidance for them at their stage in their pension journey.
"MoneyHelper, from the Money and Pensions Service (Maps), provides other guidance services, and is planning to enhance its guidance offering by directing consumers to the service appropriate for their needs."
Fairs noted that Maps was starting work on a Pension Wise digital appointments to meet increased demand for the service and encourage more savers to access guidance.
"We know that these changes will require changes in scheme processes – which is why I hope trustees along with their administrators will be preparing for them now," he continued.
"Guidance and pensions should go together like fish and chips. I hope trustees will recognise this vital link so that savers benefit from receiving the right guidance, at the right time and ultimately make the right decisions."

I taught my classmate in secondary school a sad lesson. She insulted me and I knew I would not win her in a fight, so I sneaked my money into her school bag. Some hours later, I started crying that my money is missing. I searched the whole class and then I eventually pulled the money out of the place I kept it in her bag. Her mother nearly killed her that day. God please forgive me.
You are a witch period.
BV's know how to fall person hand sha! Imagine the number of comments on this interesting post.
my story long abeg and i no get energy to type this hot afternoon. bottom line is that thunder is still firing my friend and her boyfriend.
I narrated mine sometime back. My best friend in junior secondary. I've forgiven her sincerely.
I was framed by my landlady and her sisters, I was accused of sleeping with a neighbor's wife.. The husband came at me with a cutlass,i would have lost my life if the man had not asked me to swear on my innocence with Jazz... Just because I refused to service landlady akwuna.. After God, fear Women..
Naomi, an Esan friend set me up so nicely. She was so cool about it as I faced the public embarrassment. After that, she started avoiding me like a plaque. This is someone who would do anything for me to hangout with her and somehow, I always knew she was a snake and refused to get close to her. My sin was I cautioned her for backbiting, gossip and openly quarreling with a fellow sister in church. That day, she revealed her true character and I wept in my heart telling God to vindicate me. The damage was irreparable but she paid dearly for it. I didn't say a word or discuss it with her till we parted but knew my tears spoke a thousand words to God. I later heard she never married her fiance, a kind hearted and gentle soul because of her jealousy, selfishness and slanderous nature. Till date, I wish to set my eyes on her for once.

Pizza, as it turned out, is not only fast food, which we order, when we are too lazy to cook or for a noisy party for many people. Sometimes companies deliver pizza to people who simply need hot food, such as those affected by Hurricane Harvey in Houston, Texas.
Workers of the regional Pizza Hut, led by the manager Shayda Habib, organized a group of people with kayaks, providing pizza to those who needed it most. The "fleet" of six people made their way through the flooded streets of the city and the rain to deliver pizza to people who were stuck in their homes because of the hurricane and practically devastated their food supplies.
Habib said she plans to continue delivering pizza until the store runs out of food.
Hurricane Harvey hit Houston, Texas on September 2 and was recognized as one of the most powerful hurricanes since the days of Wilma in 2005. Within four days, more than 1000 mm of rain fell, which led to catastrophic floods. As a result of flooding, hundreds of thousands of houses were affected, and over 30,000 people were left homeless.

New program lets private citizens sponsor refugees in US
REBECCA SANTANA
Associated Press • January 19, 2023
The State Department seal is seen on the briefing room lectern at the State Department in Washington, Jan. 31, 2022. (Mandel Ngan/AP)
WASHINGTON — Everyday Americans will be able to help refugees adjust to life in the U.S. in a program launched Thursday by the State Department as a way to give private citizens a role in resettling the thousands of refugees who arrive every year.
The State Department program is called the Welcome Corps. The agency aims to line up 10,000 Americans who can help 5,000 refugees during the first year of the program.
"By tapping into the goodwill of American communities, the Welcome Corps will expand our country's capacity to provide a warm welcome to higher numbers of refugees," according to the announcement.
The State Department has traditionally worked with nonprofit groups that specialize in refugee issues to help people from around the world when they first arrive in the country and face a dramatically different way of life. Under the program announced Thursday, five or more Americans would be able to form a group and fill this role as well.
They would apply to privately sponsor refugees to resettle in America, and would be responsible for raising their own money to help the refugees during their first 90 days in the country. Assistance would include everything from greeting refugees at the airport, finding them place to live to getting kids enrolled in school.
A consortium of nonprofits with expertise in refugee resettlement will help oversee the vetting and certification of people and groups who want to be private sponsors. They'll also offer training so private sponsors understand what's needed to help refugees adjusting to life in America. The consortium will be responsible for monitoring the program.
The new initiative will roll out in two phases, according to the State Department. Under the first phase, private sponsors will be matched with refugees already approved for resettlement under the U.S. Refugee Assistance Program. That will start during the first half of 2023.
In the second phase, private sponsors would be able to identify refugees abroad they'd like to help and then refer those people to the Refugee Assistance Program and assist them once they arrive in the U.S.
The Welcome Corps program comes on the heels of a similar, smaller scale endeavor under which Americans were able to sponsor Afghans or Ukrainians fleeing their country. That program launched in October 2021 and has helped just over 800 people coming to America through a network of 230 certified sponsor circles that included a total of about 5,000 people.
Sasha Chanoff —founder and chief executive of Boston-based RefugePoint, which supports Afghan refugees — said Canada has long used a similar model to help resettle refugees. Chanoff said the sponsor circle program capitalizes on the huge amount of goodwill among Americans to sponsor refugees, something that crosses political divides.
"This represents perhaps a unique opportunity in our history — certainly in our recent history — to really open up space for Americans to protect lives by sponsoring a family," he said. "We've seen the incredible interest among the American public — Republicans, Democrats, liberals, conservatives, veterans, so many others across the political spectrum."
President Joe Biden vowed in a 2021 executive order to restore the U.S. as the world's haven and called for private sponsorship of refugees. The previous administration, under President Donald Trump, had largely rolled back the refugee program.
But Thursday's announcement comes as the U.S. is woefully off track if it hopes to meet Biden's goal of 125,000 refugees admitted into the U.S. during fiscal year 2023. According to State Department data, the U.S. has admitted just 6,750 refugees to the country through December — three months into the 2023 fiscal year.
Krish O'Mara Vignarajah, President and CEO of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service commended the Biden administration's "forward-thinking" program which has "potential to strengthen ties between refugees and the communities they will call home." But Vignarajah also noted the low number of refugee admissions. LIRS is a national nonprofit that helps refugees, asylum seekers, and other immigrants.
"The Biden administration must prioritize the streamlining of refugee admissions, which remain regrettably low this fiscal year. Without urgent action to increase efficiency, it risks letting the compassion of individual sponsors and the expertise of professional refugee resettlement organizations go to waste," Vignarajah said in a statement.

Lafayette College Art Galleries presents "Lalla Essaydi: Photographs," an exhibition of seven large photographs from her best known series through April 11 at the Williams Center Gallery located at the Williams Center for the Arts, 317 Hamilton Street, Easton, Pa. Essaydi will present a public lecture, "Gender, Power, and Tradition," on Wednesday, February 28, 4:10 p.m. in the Oechsle Hall Auditorium (Oechsle Hall is located on Hamilton Street across from the Williams Center for the Arts.) A reception for the artist will take place at the William Center Gallery directly following the talk.
The exhibition and related programs are free and open to the public.
Lalla Essaydi's explorations of the image of woman in Muslim society address the complex reality of Arab female identity from the unique perspective of personal experience. As a Muslim woman (b. 1956, Marrakesh) who grew up in Morocco, raised her family in Saudi Arabia, and relocated to France and finally the United States, the artist has profound firsthand perspectives into cross-cultural identity politics.
This exhibition draws from a number of projects. "Converging Territories" depicts Islamic women and children in an unoccupied house where Essaydi was once confined for long spells as a child, whenever she was disobedient. "Les Femmes du Maroc" explores the charged rhetoric of veiling and revealing which surrounds Muslim women. "Harem" and "Harem Revisited" presents women in a number of closed interior spaces within the walls of former harems. In "Bullets" and "Bullets Revisited" the artist constructs backdrops, floors, and clothing from cut bullet casings, creating works combining beauty and menace. In all of the photographs, the women are entirely enveloped in Arabic calligraphy—writing, applied in henna, which adorns their skin, their robes, and the interiors that surround them. The text seems to entrap the women, and yet it is a form of decoration which marks some of the happiest and most significant moments of a Muslim woman's life.
Essaydi's photography provides a contemporary reflection on an iconography that stretches at least as far back as the Orientalist imagery of nineteenth-century artists such as Ingres, Delacroix, and Gérôme. "I wish to present myself through multiple lenses—as artist, as Moroccan, as traditionalist, as liberal, as Muslim. In short, I invite the viewer to resist stereotypes."
A fully illustrated catalogue with essay by Valerie Behiery is available. Behiery writes, "…Lalla Essaydi's meticulously planned photographs leave nothing to happenstance. Often requiring months of preparation, they deliberately foster multilayeredness and ambiguity of form and meaning. By reflecting the uncertain location of polycultural subjects, they create new spaces that defy present-day categorizations of and in East and West."
A concurrent exhibition of Lalla Essaydi's photographs can be seen at the Trout Gallery, Dickinson College, through May 12. The exhibition catalogue, produced by the Trout Gallery, includes images of the works at both locations.
The photographs are "© Lalla Essaydi / Courtesy Edwynn Houk Gallery, New York?"
Lalla Essaydi is presented in conjunction with Tapestries: Voices Within Contemporary Muslim Cultures, a Lafayette College initiative that features programs throughout campus that focus on arts and culture with roots in Muslim-majority regions of the world. Tapestries is made possible in part by a grant from the Association of Performing Arts Professionals (APAP), Building Bridges: Arts, Culture, and Identity, a component of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art. Lalla Essaydi's residency is also supported by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts; by Lafayette College programs and departments including Anthropology and Sociology, History, Women and Gender Studies, and Africana Studies; and by the Department of Art's Grossman Visiting Artist series and the Lafayette Art Galleries.
Lafayette is located in Easton, Pennsylvania, on the scenic Delaware River, 72 miles from New York City, and 60 miles from Philadelphia. For more information and gallery hours, visit the art galleries' website: galleries.lafayette.edu.

Q: How to call function that counts digits in an integer My function should get a non-negative integer, and return how many digits there are in the number, for Example for the number 563 the function return 3.
And for 0 will return 1.
*I'm new in c so it still very confusing for me.
Thanks.
Here is my code:
#include <stdio.h>

int numOfDigits(int n); //Declartion

void main()
{
    int num1, counter = 0, newNum;

    printf("Enter A Number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num1);
}

int numOfDigits(int n1)
{
    int counter = 0;
    if (n1 == 0)
        return 1;

    while (n1 > 0) {
        counter++;
        n1 /= 10;
    }
    return counter;
}

What should I write to make the program work?

A: Just call the digit counting function that you made and assign its return value to a variable, and then print the value of that variable using printf() function; or alternatively, call your digit counting function inside printf() as an argument:
#include <stdio.h>

int numOfDigits(int n);

int main(void)
{
    int num1;
    int counter = 0;

    printf("Enter A Number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num1);

    counter = numOfDigits(num1);
    printf("number of digits: %d\n", counter);

    //printf("number of digits: %d\n", numOfDigits(num1)); alternate method

}

int numOfDigits(int n1)
{
    int counter = 0;
    if (n1 == 0)
        return 1;

    while (n1 > 0) {
        counter++;
        n1 /= 10;
    }
    return counter;
}

A couple of notes:

*

*Since you mentioned that you need to get a non-negative number, consider using unsigned int type, and change the format specifier inside scanf() and printf() call to "%u".

*Function main should be declared as int main(void) or int main(int argc, char **argv)

I believe food in the US is cheaper than Canada. I for one can not feed my family with $200 a month and I am cheap. When milk costs $7 for 4 liters and cheese is also $7 and lets not get started on meat costs, $200 is a weekly bill for us and that is being cheap. So I am open for great idea's too.
Agree completely. Food prices are higher in Canada. Of course, if you cross the borders, you can bring most groceries back into Canada.
There are items that are cheaper in Canada - most products imported from other commonwealth countries. I used to buy a lot of Australia lamb which was much cheaper in Windsor than Detroit.
Eating organic helped us shrink our food bill...not even kidding. Organic food seems to be much more filling to me, and my husband.
Just did the math. Groceries last month (all organic produce and dairy) was $266. Add in our eating out total (we went on vacation), it was $390. Our cost per person, per meal ends up being 2.32...and I didn't even subtract from the bill the food costs to feed four pets, or paper products/cleaners. Or the two dinner parties we had, with korean steak BBQ for twelve. So it's even less than that.
I don't skimp...I make sure I buy the good stuff. But I go shopping at least twice a week, shop with sales, and always base it around fresh, cheap produce. It's filling, healthy, and so much more satisfying. When I see meat on sale, I stock up. Last month I bought ten pounds of semi-boneless leg of lamb for $28. That will last the two of us a good bit into the grilling season. Breakfast for me is always fruit and an english muffin with brie and coffee...a few light snacks through the lunch hour, and then dinner is our big meal. Eating less makes me feel much better, and I tend to eat much better quality.
Also, if it's processed, it usually doesn't come into the house (with a few exceptions, like ice cream of course). I have a 25lb bag of flour that I got for $6...and I make all our bread and pasta from that. If I want fried chicken, I bread it myself. Cakes and cookies are always baked fresh. My husband and I are college students and he only works part time, so time is the one thing I definitely have. When we don't have time, we'll go out somewhere cheap or whip up a salad. I don't fret. At least for me, the more I fret about money, the more I spend. It's like dieting..if I fret about food, I just eat more.
I also cheat when I need to. $25 of that grocery tally was from an ice cream and junk food run when I was feeling down. Ben and Jerry's, fresh cannolis, seltzer and juice for me, and Dr. Pepper for the hubby. One transgression didn't nab too much from my bank account or add any to my waistline, but it keeps me feeling spoiled so I keep up my good habits.
Just an FYI to those of you w/ an ALDI near you. They have DRASTICALLY reduced the prices of their meats!!! I will only be getting my meat from there for now. 80/20 ground beef: $1.79/lb!!! Spareribs are now $1.89/lb!! wow.
Hmm, wonder why all the ranchers were sending the cattle off to slaughter? Feed prices going up do you suppose? Will that mean meat prices will be really expensive later? If you've got an Aldi's nearby as well as a big freezer, the two of them may be meant for each other. We don't have an Aldi's but we've got friends with cows and sheep so we get meat from them. Even after paying them for the animal and the slaughterhouse to process it, it is still a lot cheaper than the stuff from the grocery store.
Small kid time the town I grew up in had a big commercial freezer that folks could rent a freezer basket in. Mom would go there to pick up a roast for dinner sometimes. I wonder why that sort of establishment isn't common anymore?
US grown rice is very cheap. In Costco they charge about $.32/lb for a 25lb bag, granted that's a lot of rice, a family of 4 should go through it in a 2 months, the rice doesn't go bad either. Some people prefer rice from other countries, but it is more expensive. If you buy pasta, potatoes, or bread you will probably spend more money, adding some rice would save you some money.
LOL, there's no way my family of 5 could eat 25 lbs of rice in 2 months!!! Maybe 10.

It slows down my app... I think Garbage collection paused my app Please help me show it quickly!
Garbage Collector is a daemon thread. You can neither stop it nor call it. You can just make a request, eg.- System.gc(), to the garbage collector.
Plus, garbage collector helps improving the performance.
If you do not want to get your objects getting collected by GC then just Hold the reference.
If your object is getting collected prematurely, it is a symptom that you have a bug in the design of your application.
All you can do is avoid to keep on creating objects and try to reuse as much as possible the objects instances you already have.
When using CalendarView I noticed one quite surprising thing. When I set calendar heigh as number, ex. android:layout_height="400dp" garbage collector is not run, however when I set it as match_parent garbage collector is run every time I switch orientation. Perhaps that's the answer?

The long-awaited new installment of Twin Peaks on Showtime was billed as a limited-run event. But that has not stopped fans from asking about another season. The networks' CEO David Nevins and president Gary Levine fielded some of these questions during the network's portion of the winter TCA press tour.
In 1991, Kyle MacLachlan won the Golden Globe for his role in David Lynch's cult classic Twin Peaks. This year, history may repeat itself as MacLachlan is nominated for the same role that has become iconic since its inception.

maxbet Arsenal are in talks over a deal for Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Bernd Leno. New Gunners boss Unai Emery is eager to bring in a new long-term No.1 this summer with Petr Cech now 36.
Leno has spent the past seven years at Leverkusen but the Bundesliga side are ready to let him go this summer. He has a £22m release clause in Germany and Arsenal are hopeful of pushing through a deal for the German stopper in the coming days.
Defensive reinforcements were at the top of Arsenal's wishlist, with Stephan Lichtsteiner having already arrived on a free transfer from Juventus.

Q: HTTP(S) request to any URL in Java I need to make a GET request to a user supplied URL (which could be either http or https)
In JavaScript I could do:
fetch(prompt()).then(r => r.text()).then(console.log)

What is the equivalent code for Java?
How does this work with a custom certificate?

A: URL/URLConnection
Java is fundamentally different than js.
One of these differences is that java is blocking/synchronous meaning the default way is to wait for the request:
known/trusted certificate or HTTP
final URL url=new URL("url here");//create url
//Open an InputStream (binary) to the URL
//Convert it to a reader(text)
//Use buffering
try(BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(url.openStream(),StandardCharsets.UTF_8))){
    br.lines().forEach(System.out::println);//print all lines
}catch(IOException e){
    //Error handling
}

The try-with-resources statement closes the resources automatically when they are not needed any more.
This is important to do this so you don't have resource leaks.
Self signed/custom certificate
As stated in this answer, you can configure a TrustStore in order to add a custom certificate:
//Load certificate
File crtFile = new File("server.crt");
Certificate certificate = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509").generateCertificate(new FileInputStream(crtFile));

KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());
keyStore.load(null, null);
keyStore.setCertificateEntry("server", certificate);

TrustManagerFactory trustManagerFactory = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance(TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm());
trustManagerFactory.init(keyStore);

SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
sslContext.init(null, trustManagerFactory.getTrustManagers(), null);

final URL url=new URL("url here");//create url

HttpsURLConnection connection = (HttpsURLConnection) new URL(url).openConnection();//open a connection
connection.setSSLSocketFactory(sslContext.getSocketFactory());

//Open an InputStream (binary) to the URL
//Convert it to a reader(text)
//Use buffering
try(BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream(),StandardCharsets.UTF_8))){
    br.lines().forEach(System.out::println);//print all lines
}catch(IOException e){
    //Error handling
}

HttpClient
If you use Java 11 or newer, you could also try to use the asynchronous HttpClient as described here.
This is more similar to the JS approach.
known/trusted certificate or HTTP
HttpClient client = HttpClient.newHttpClient();//create the HTTPClient
HttpRequest request = HttpRequest.newBuilder()//create a request object, GET is the default
      .uri(URI.create("url here"))//set the url
      .build();//build the request object
client.sendAsync(request, BodyHandlers.ofString())//send the request in a background thread (fetch() in your code)
      .thenApply(HttpResponse::body)//get the body as a string (.then(r=>r.text()) in your code))
      .thenAccept(System.out::println);//print it (.then(console.log) in your code)

This approach is asynchronous like your JS example.
Self signed/custom certificate
If you want to use custom certificates, you can use the sslContect method like here:
//Load certificate
File crtFile = new File("server.crt");
Certificate certificate = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509").generateCertificate(new FileInputStream(crtFile));

KeyStore keyStore = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());
keyStore.load(null, null);
keyStore.setCertificateEntry("server", certificate);

TrustManagerFactory trustManagerFactory = TrustManagerFactory.getInstance(TrustManagerFactory.getDefaultAlgorithm());
trustManagerFactory.init(keyStore);

SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
sslContext.init(null, trustManagerFactory.getTrustManagers(), null);

//Execute the request
HttpClient client = HttpClient.newBuilder()//create a builder for the HttpClient
    .sslContext(sslContext)//set the SSL context
    .build();//build the HttpClient
HttpRequest request = HttpRequest.newBuilder()//create a request object, GET is the default
      .uri(URI.create("url here"))//set the url
      .build();//build the request object
client.sendAsync(request, BodyHandlers.ofString())//send the request in a background thread (fetch() in your code)
      .thenApply(HttpResponse::body)//get the body as a string (.then(r=>r.text()) in your code))
      .thenAccept(System.out::println);//print it (.then(console.log) in your code)

external library
The third possibility is to use an external library like OkHttp.

A:
HttpURLConnection class from java.net package can be used to send
Java HTTP Request programmatically. Today we will learn how to use
HttpURLConnection in java program to send GET and POST requests and then print the response.

Below are the steps we need to follow for sending Java HTTP requests using HttpURLConnection class.

*

*Create URL object from the GET/POST URL String.

*Call openConnection() method on URL object that returns instance of
HttpURLConnection

*Set the request method in HttpURLConnection instance, default
value is GET.

*Call setRequestProperty() method on HttpURLConnection instance
to set request header values, such as "User-Agent" and
"Accept-Language" etc.

*We can call getResponseCode() to get the response HTTP code.
This way we know if the request was processed successfully or there
was any HTTP error message thrown.

*For GET, we can simply use Reader and InputStream to read the
response and process it accordingly.

*For POST, before we read response we need to get the OutputStream
from HttpURLConnection instance and write POST parameters into
it.

HttpURLConnection Example

Based on the above steps, below is the example program showing usage of HttpURLConnection to send Java GET and POST requests.

JAVA CODE

package com.mr.rockerz.HttpUrlExample;

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.net.URL;

public class HttpURLConnectionExample {

    private static final String USER_AGENT = "Mozilla/5.0";

    private static final String GET_URL = "https://localhost:9090/SpringMVCExample";

    private static final String POST_URL = "https://localhost:9090/SpringMVCExample/home";

    private static final String POST_PARAMS = "userName=Pankaj";

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        sendGET();
        System.out.println("GET DONE");
        sendPOST();
        System.out.println("POST DONE");
    }

    private static void sendGET() throws IOException {
        URL obj = new URL(GET_URL);
        HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
        con.setRequestMethod("GET");
        con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);
        int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
        System.out.println("GET Response Code :: " + responseCode);
        if (responseCode == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) { // success
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                    con.getInputStream()));
            String inputLine;
            StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();

            while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
                response.append(inputLine);
            }
            in.close();

            // print result
            System.out.println(response.toString());
        } else {
            System.out.println("GET request not worked");
        }

    }

    private static void sendPOST() throws IOException {
        URL obj = new URL(POST_URL);
        HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
        con.setRequestMethod("POST");
        con.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", USER_AGENT);

        // For POST only - START
        con.setDoOutput(true);
        OutputStream os = con.getOutputStream();
        os.write(POST_PARAMS.getBytes());
        os.flush();
        os.close();
        // For POST only - END

        int responseCode = con.getResponseCode();
        System.out.println("POST Response Code :: " + responseCode);

        if (responseCode == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) { //success
            BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                    con.getInputStream()));
            String inputLine;
            StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();

            while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
                response.append(inputLine);
            }
            in.close();

            // print result
            System.out.println(response.toString());
        } else {
            System.out.println("POST request not worked");
        }
    }

}

When we execute the above program, we get below response.
GET Response Code :: 200
    <title>Home</title>
    Hello world!

  The time on the server is March 6, 2015 9:31:04 PM IST.

Jules Maximilien Lauth (Saverne,  - Paris, ) est un militaire français, protagoniste de l'affaire Dreyfus.

Biographie

Sa famille choisit la France et le jeune alsacien patriote entre à Saint Cyr. Il en sort dix-huitième sur 236 et est breveté de l'École de Guerre avec mention Très Bien. Officier de cavalerie, il sert en Afrique et y est blessé.

Capitaine breveté et parfait germanophone, Lauth sert à l'État Major de l'Armée de 1893 à 1897. Il y est principalement chargé de traduire les documents allemands pour le bureau de statistiques du colonel Jean Sandherr. C'est à ce titre qu'il est mêlé à l'Affaire Dreyfus. D'après Maurice Paléologue il était l'amant de Madame Henry et était le chef de son chef. Il est décrit par le diplomate comme  et serait, d'après lui, l'éminence grise de l'Affaire. Nous savons aujourd'hui que tel ne fut pas le cas mais qu'il fut bien, avec les hommes de la Section de statistique, de ce qu'on a appelé « la collusion » visant à préserver la condamnation de Dreyfus au prix de la protection d'Esterhazy. Il participa ainsi, avec le commandant Henry et Félix Gribelin et sous les ordres du général Gonse et du général de Boisdeffre, à alimenter le dossier contre Dreyfus et Picquart de pièces fausses ou dirigées dans le sens de l'accusation.

Il part en retraite en 1906 avec le grade de lieutenant colonel.

Auteur informé il publie une révision d'un ouvrage important, L'État militaire des principales puissances étrangères au printemps de 1894. Allemagne, Angleterre, Autriche-Hongrie, Belgique, Espagne, Italie, Russie, Suisse [par le général Rau] augmentée et mise à jour par lui.

De 1915 à 1918 il commande sur le front un régiment d'infanterie territoriale. Il meurt à Paris le .

Commission of investigation into Garda's shooting dead of dissident follows sub-standard Garda, DPP inquiries
Minister for Justice says new process into fatality at armed robbery will cost €350,000
Thu, Jul 17, 2014, 01:00
Conor Lally
Frances Fitzgerald: stopped short of guaranteeing all fees would be paid
A commission of investigation into the shooting dead by gardaí of a dissident republican is being held 16 years later because the inquiries by the Garda, DPP and the coroner's inquest were inadequate, Minister for Justice Frances Fitzgerald has said.
The new inquiry will examine the actions of the Garda in the fatal shooting of Ronan MacLochlainn in May 1998.
"Essentially the task of the commission is to decide whether the use of force by the Garda Síochána in this instance was proportionate," Ms Fitzgerald said.
"The investigations that were carried out by the gardaí, the DPP and the coroners; none were deemed to meet the criteria."
Legal fees While Ms Fitzgerald said there was precedent for the State to pay the legal fees of any gardaí
or retired officers asked to give evidence to the investigation, she stopped short of guaranteeing all fees would be paid.
The commission of investigation will be conducted by a barrister and will take six months at a cost of about €350,000. It will examine the circumstances of the shooting as well as the policies, practices, procedures and training provided to the Garda during operations like that in which Mr MacLochlainn lost his life.
The dead man's partner, Gráinne Nic Gibb, took a case against Ireland to Europe in 2010 under the European Convention on Human Rights.
She argued the State had failed to carry out any effective official investigation into the killing, saying this was in breach of the convention.
'Technical breach'
Mr MacLochlainn was part of a dissident republican armed gang that tried to rob a cash-in-transit van on the main Dublin-Wicklow road near Ashford on May 1st, 1998, on the day of the so-called Garda "blue-flu" when many gardaí rang in sick in a protest over pay.
The Garda had the gang under surveillance and moved in when the robbery started. The crew of the cash van were threatened and when the gang members realised gardaí were at the scene, efforts were made to hijack passing cars to escape.
The 32-County Sovereignty Movement, the political wing of the Real IRA, said the dead man had lost his life on active service. A married man with three sons, Mr MacLochlainn (28) had been in the Provisional IRA since his teens.

On Sky: antisemitism, Keir Starmer and lockdown dilemmas
April 24, 2020 April 24, 2020 Melanie	Adam Boulton, Ian Dunt, Sky, Tamara Cohen
On Adam Boulton's All Out Politics on Sky News this week, I took part in a podcast with Ian Dunt, the editor of politics.co.uk and Tamara Cohen, Sky's political correspondent.
We discussed – of course – how the British government is handling the virus emergency and the appalling choices it is being forced to make over when and how to emerge from the lockdown. I talked about Israel's (so far) more successful approach which would not be acceptable in Britain because of its use of mobile phone data to track virus carriers. We also discussed the virtual debut in the Commons of Labour's new leader Sir Keir Starmer, and whether he was likely finally to resolve the party's antisemitism crisis.

WSO General Counsel Palbinder Kaur Shergill Appointed to Supreme Court of BC
Ottawa (June 23, 2017) - The World Sikh Organization of Canada congratulates The Honourable Madam Justice Palbinder Kaur Shergill Q.C. on her appointment as a judge of the Supreme Court of British Columbia in New Westminster. Justice Shergill is the first turbaned Sikh to be appointed to the judiciary in Canada. She had served as general legal counsel for the WSO since 1991 on a pro bono basis.
In today's announcement by The Honourable Jody Wilson-Raybould, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, announced three appointments to the Supreme Court of British Columbia. Justice Shergill was appointed to the Supreme Court of British Columbia in New Westminster, effective immediately. Justice Shergill has been a leading human rights advocate and has represented the WSO and the interests of the Canadian Sikh community in several landmark cases heard by the Supreme Court of Canada, including Syndicat Northcrest v. Amselem, dealing with freedom of religion, Multani v. Commission Scolaire, dealing with right of Sikh students to wear the kirpan in schools and Loyola High School v. Quebec (Attorney General) with respect to the right of a Catholic high school to teach the provincial Ethics and Religious Culture course from a Catholic perspective.
Justice Shergill is a prominent member of the Sikh community in Canada and is regularly invited to speak on human rights and Sikh issues both nationally and internationally. She was appointed Queen's Counsel in 2012 and is also a recipient of the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal for Community Service. Prior to her appointment, Justice Shergill had a busy full-time private practice as lawyer and mediator with her law firm Shergill & Company, Trial Lawyers, specializing in commercial and civil litigation.
In addition to her volunteer work in the Sikh community, Justice Shergill also served as a Governor for the Trial Lawyers Association of BC and as a Director on the Fraser Health Authority Board from 2002 to 2008. She is also a past Chair of the National Administrative Law Section of the Canadian Bar Association.
WSO President Mukhbir Singh said, "The appointment of Justice Shergill is another milestone for the Sikh community in Canada. It is a matter of great pride that we today have the first turbaned Sikh appointed to the judiciary in Canada and that too someone who has worked so closely with our organization. Justice Shergill's dedicated service to the legal profession and the community are well known and she has truly made a difference through her work. We were very fortunate to have had Justice Shergill as a key member of our legal team and we now look forward to her serving Canadians as a member of the BC bench."
The World Sikh Organization of Canada (WSO) is a non-profit organization with a mandate to promote and protect the interests of Canadian Sikhs, as well as to promote and advocate for the protection of human rights for all individuals, irrespective of race, religion, gender, ethnicity, and social and economic status

An AR-15 assault rifle. The same used during the Friday attack in Aurora, Colorado.
In the worst mass shooting in Colorado since Columbine, a gunman opened fire early Friday in a packed showing of "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora. Twelve are known dead and 59 are reported injured. Police have one suspect in custody, James Eagan Holmes, 24. So far, no motive for the killings has been disclosed.
What happened that night? The suspect propped open a parking lot door at the Century 16 Cinema, retrieved his gear from outside, donned a gas mask and bulletproof armor, and detonated two smoke bombs. He then began spraying a stunned crowd of movie-goers with bullets. Additional injuries occurred in the panic to escape. That's according to a federal investigator speaking to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates told Reuters that Holmes had a AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, a shotgun and a pistol. The police arrived at the scene within 90 seconds of the first emergency call. Holmes was arrested minutes later without a struggle in the parking lot after exiting the theater.

Near that exit now is a makeshift memorial. A sign erected over a bed of bouquets reads, "7/20. Gone Not Forgotten." A group of pastors led a teary vigil nearby for about 350 people Saturday. KUSA-TV said at least 26 victims of the shooting remained hospitalized Saturday, nine in critical condition. That included a 4-month-old, already released from the hospital, and a 6-year-old being treated for a bullet to the face at Children's Hospital Colorado.
Police say Holmes was a quiet boy with a once promising academic career. A scholarship winner, he graduated at the top of his class at the University of California-Riverside. He moved to Colorado last year to attend the doctoral program in neuroscience at University of Colorado-Denver. There his struggles began, leading to his dropping out this Spring.
According to The New York Times, neighbors described Holmes as a solitary figure. They complained of his blasting loud music at night. They also said he would block up his windows with newspaper so nobody could see into his apartment.

According to Oates, Holmes purchased 6,000 rounds of ammunition online, including a 100-round magazine for the AR-15 assault rifle. Authorities are conducting a cautious investigation of Holmes' dwelling.
CNN reported technicians worked to clear the suspect's apartment with the help of a robot, using it to handle traps, wires and possible incendiary devices. Two devices were intentionally detonated at the site. Police said all hazards had been removed by Saturday evening.
Kaitlyn Fonzi, 20, who lives in the apartment below Holmes', had a close call. She told the AP she heard loud techno-like music coming from upstairs around midnight. She contacted police only to be told that they were busy with a shooting and didn't have time to respond to a noise complaint. She then went upstairs to find the door apparently unlocked, however she didn't enter.
"I yelled out and told him I was going to call the cops and went back to my apartment," Fonzi said.
Fonzi was later shaken to discover the apartment was trip-wired with explosives.
"I'm concerned if I had opened the door, I would have set it off," she mused. She believes the music to have been on a timer. It started around the time of the shootings.
The FBI has found no evidence linking the Aurora shootings to any terrorist group.
It's tragic that the six year old I mention is now dead, and her mother just miscarried her sibling, still in the womb. The echoes of this horror just won't quit.
