Q: Iterate through List looking for similar items to consolidate into new List This should be easy to do, but I can't seem to wrap my head around it.  I have a List of items that contain a shipper, receiver, order no and item id.  I iterate through this list to create my Model for a View.  I need to consolidate my items that have the same shipper/receiver.
Here is the code for my View:
// GET: /Hazmat/Pending
public ActionResult Pending()
{
    PendingViewModel pendingViewModel = new PendingViewModel();
    // Check for shipments created manually pending shipping
    List<HazmatInfo> pending = hazmatRepository.GetHazmatPendingShipping().ToList();
    List<PendingReceiver> pendingReceivers = new List<PendingReceiver>();
    List<HazmatLocation> shippers = new List<HazmatLocation>();
    PendingReceiver pendingReceiver = new PendingReceiver();
    List<PendingItem> pendingItems = new List<PendingItem>();

    foreach (HazmatInfo item in pending)
    {
        PendingReceiver tempReceiver = new PendingReceiver();
        List<PendingItem> tempItems = new List<PendingItem>();

        tempReceiver.Receiver = hazmatRepository.GetLocationById(item.ToBU);
        tempReceiver.Shipper = hazmatRepository.GetLocationById(item.FromBU);
        tempItems.Add(hazmatRepository.convertToPendingItem(hazmatRepository.GetItem(item.InvItemID), item.OrderNo, item.ToBU));
        tempReceiver.PendingItems = tempItems;
        pendingReceivers.Add(tempReceiver);
    }

    pendingReceivers = ConsolidateItems(pendingReceivers);

    pendingViewModel.PendingReceivers = pendingReceivers;

    //To get a distinct result, group by first found items
    foreach (HazmatInfo item in pending.GroupBy(s => s.FromBU).Select(grp => grp.First()))
    {
        HazmatLocation shipper = new HazmatLocation();
        shipper = hazmatRepository.GetLocationById(item.FromBU);
        shippers.Add(shipper);
    }

    pendingViewModel.Shippers = shippers;

    ViewBag.PendingCount = pending.Count();
    return View("Pending", pendingViewModel);
}

Here is the code for consolidating my items:
private List<PendingReceiver> ConsolidateItems(List<PendingReceiver> pendingReceivers)
{
    var groups = pendingReceivers.GroupBy(x => new { x.Shipper, x.Receiver });

    pendingReceivers = pendingReceivers.OrderBy(s => s.Receiver.Location).ToList();
    List<PendingReceiver> tempReceivers = new List<PendingReceiver>();
    tempReceivers = pendingReceivers.ToList();
    List<PendingItem> tempItems = new List<PendingItem>();
    int i = 0;
    foreach (PendingReceiver tempReceiver in pendingReceivers)
    {
        while (i < pendingReceivers.Count - 1)
        {
            if ((pendingReceivers[i].Receiver.Location == pendingReceivers[i + 1].Receiver.Location) &&
                (pendingReceivers[i].Shipper.Location == pendingReceivers[i + 1].Shipper.Location))
            {
                if (tempItems.Count == 1)
                {
                    tempItems.Add(pendingReceivers[i + 1].PendingItems.SingleOrDefault());
                }

                tempItems.Add(pendingReceivers[i].PendingItems.SingleOrDefault());
                tempReceivers[i].PendingItems = tempItems;
                tempReceivers.RemoveAt(i + 1);
            }

            i++;
        }
    }

    return tempReceivers;
}

Here is my PendingReceivers class:
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections;

namespace Hazmat.Models
{
    public class PendingReceiver : IEnumerable
    {
        public HazmatLocation Receiver { get; set; }
        public HazmatLocation Shipper { get; set; }
        public IEnumerable<PendingItem> PendingItems { get; set; }

        public IEnumerator GetEnumerator()
        {
            yield return this.PendingItems;
        }
    }
}

I can picture what I need to do, but can't seem to implement it.
I've edited my ConsolidateItems method... and added more information like the data I'm using to help with this problem...
Currently, my ConsolidateItems method seems to work but skips one item (FromBu=02, ToBu=10).
Given this data:
ID  OrderNo         ItemID  Type    Qty FromBU  ToBU
4055    370047528   850265  MANUAL  12.0000 24  01
4069    996564490   582526  MANUAL  1.0000  02  10
4070    996564491   940145  MANUAL  2.0000  70  49
4071    996564492   430051  MANUAL  3.0000  24  60
4072    996564493   851110  MANUAL  1.0000  02  01
4073    996564493   173000  MANUAL  10.0000 02  01
4075    996564493   928002  MANUAL  1.0000  02  01
The last 3 items in this list should be 3 items in PendingReceivers.PendingItems.  My initial query pulls the above data out of my database.  I need to construct my model from this data.  PendingReceiver.Receiver contains my receiver data and PendingReceiver.Shipper my shipper data.  I may be overthinking this too...
Thanks,
Tim

A: You need to group items that have the same Shipper and Receiver? You can do this with LINQ
var groups = _pendingReceivers.GroupBy(x => new { x.Shipper, x.Receiver });

This will give you an IGrouping<TKey, PendingReceiver> where TKey is the anonymous type made up of Shipper and Receiver. You can then use these groups to output into a List.
// Flatten the groups into a single list
var consolidated = groups.SelectMany(e => e);

Here it is all together, see if this works:
private List<PendingReceiver> ConsolidateItems(List<PendingReceiver> _pendingReceivers)
{
    return _pendingReceivers
        .GroupBy(x => new { x.Shipper, x.Receiver })
        .SelectMany(e => e)
        .ToList();
}

The above should work assuming you have overridden HazmatLocation.Equals correctly.

A: Welcome to stack overflow :)
This seems to be a stellar use case for Linq, more specifically, the GroupBy method.
Check out this article for more info

A: You could try this DistinctBy extention method (credit to Jon Skeet):
public static IEnumerable<TSource> DistinctBy<TSource, TKey>(
                            this IEnumerable<TSource> source
                             , Func<TSource, TKey> selector)
{
    var set = new HashSet<TKey>();
    return source.Where(element => set.Add(selector(element)));
}

pendingReceivers = pendingReceivers.DistinctBy( pr => new { pr.Shipper
                                                          , pr.Receiver });

You will also need to implement IEqualityComparer on the Shipper and Receiver classes - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms132151.aspx

A: I was able to take a step back to where I was doing my original query and found a LINQ statement that gave me what I'd need right off the bat instead of trying to twist the results to my will after the fact...  Thanks to the help from LINQPad which I just discovered this morning.
HazmatInfo.Where (h => (h.ShippingFlag.Equals("false") && h.ShippingType.Equals("Manual")))).GroupBy(x => new { x.ToBU, x.FromBU }, y => new { y }).Distinct()

The Brazilian Patent & Trademark Office (PTO) has recently opened a new Public Consultation, this time on the draft guidelines for the examination of patent applications in the biotechnology field. The Public Consultation was published in the Federal Official Gazette on December 5, 2012 and any interested party may make their submissions within a 60-day-term counted as from that publication date.
The new draft provides more definitions and illustrations on biotech subject matter not expressly mentioned in Law # 9,279/96 (ESTs, primers, SNPs, cDNAs, ORFs, fusion proteins, etc.), indicating whether they would patentable or not in view of the main statutory prohibitions found in articles 10, (IX) and 18, (I) and (III) of that Law.
Hybridomas, monoclonal and chimeric/humanized antibodies, transgenic microorganisms, nucleotide and amino acid sequences that are not naturally occurring, microbiological processes, methods of obtaining transgenic plants, the use of stem cells in the manufacture of medicaments and the use of natural products in a variety of applications are among the patentable subject matter, as long as they meet the requirements of novelty, inventive activity and industrial application.
Nonetheless, our evaluation is that little progress has been made to the existing restrictive scenario and to overcome the difficult administrative hurdles patent applicants often have to navigate. Indeed, for those following administrative decisions on appeals and office actions closely, much of what is stated in the guidelines has been adopted by examiners over the last decade. In that way, the draft guidelines appear to be a mere institutionalization of what has already been in practice.
Unfortunately, with the proposed text, the Patent Office has failed in many ways to provide incentives for a fertile environment for biotech inventions in Brazil. In fact, most of the claims that are rejected by the Brazilian PTO are the basis for a large amount of innovative biotech products.

Custom Plaques for Uytengsu Aquatics Center in Los Angeles, CA
The Uytengsu Aquatics Center is a 2,500-seat outdoor aquatics venue that is located at the University of Southern California (USC) in Los Angeles, CA. The facility has two pools, a long course pool, and a diving well with towers. The long course pool has multiple swim lanes with a diving springboard at the end of each lane. There were existing plaques that they had on each springboard that was made in dedication to a person or a group of people. These plaques go through a lot over the years so they were replacing both the plaques and the backer panels.
The facility is the home pool for the USC Trojans swimming and diving teams so they want to make sure that all of the details of the aquatics center is in good condition, especially dedication plaques. Many different businesses and facilities can benefit from plaques, whether you are commemorating donors or past employees or owners. The Uytengsu Aquatics Center was originally called the McDonald's Olympic Swim Stadium when it was originally constructed for the 1984 Summer Olympics because financial assistance for the construction came from McDonald's. The pool was closed in 2013 to be rebuilt and was reopened in 2014 as The Uytengsu Aquatics Center, named after Fred Uytengsu, a USC alumnus, who donated millions for the renovations.
This facility has a history of honoring those who have helped it become the aquatics center it is today, so it is only natural that their dedications plaques are maintained regularly. We were contracted to remove the existing plaques and backer panels, manufacture new backer panels, and install them with plaques that were provided to us. As you can see from the photos, the brand new plaques look great, and due to the durable material they were made with, they will continue to look great for years to come.

As a website designer and web publisher myself, i know the importance of 'must-do' things online. If you follow some basic rules on things you definitely should do, and be careful of the things you shouldn't do, your sure to be successful at it.
In the first part of 2 articles, here are ten things you should definitely do when publishing online.
Who is your Web site targeting? A little thought along these lines can make your pages much more appealing to your visitors. Before you begin creating your Web site, choose the right look and feel and a style of presentation that is appropriate for your audience.
For instance, if your target audience is your family, keep your site simple and fun; but if it's a business site, keep the personal stuff well separate.
Include links that your visitors find interesting, not just the ones that you find interesting — unless that's the point of your page, of course.
The use of colour and the layout of the Web page?
The fact that the site loads quickly?
Google is a good example of a site that is well-focused around a key observation: speed matters. The Ford site, which could hardly be more different, also does a good job for their customers – by giving cars pride of place.
Note what works and why, and then strive to duplicate that effect in your own Web pages. Look for conventions in presenting information that web users have grown accustomed to, neat design ideas, and various types of content.
A surprising number of people just jump in and start throwing around text and HTML tags with no clue about where they're going or what they want to accomplish. That approach is fine if you just want to play around; in fact, it can be a lot of fun. But if you want to make a good impression on the Web, sitting down and thinking about a few things ahead of time really pays off.
All these issues and more, when properly considered and acted on, can make your site a first-class net surfing experience.
You can easily peek at the HTML source of any Web page, and that's legitimate, and a good way to figure out new design techniques. But you can also easily grab any content that exists on the web, even privately owned content that belongs to others. However, the fact that you can easily grab others' content does not make doing so right or legal. It's also not necessary.
You can find a great deal of public domain content, and getting permission to use some private content is not all that hard to do. If a Web page doesn't explicitly say that its content can be freely borrowed, assume that it's copyrighted or otherwise protected, which means you should ask before borrowing any of it. Many people are happy to let you use their content as long as you provide proper attribution and reciprocal links so that they can gain exposure to new web users who visit your pages.
No matter how great your content is, you're wasting the most important feature of the web if you don't include links to sites outside your own. No matter what your topic, you can find complementary sites out there. Giving your visitors links to those sites is not only courteous — its part of the foundation on which the web was built.
If you research your links carefully and organize them well, your links can be a valuable resource for others. In your own web surfing, you've probably found that one of the best experiences on the web is the chance of stumbling upon some cool site that you had no idea existed. Give your visitors that same experience.
The bottom line is that sites that carefully use graphics and multimedia are much more interesting than purely text-oriented ones. Give it a go.
Testing your pages is easy. You probably don't send out a memo without spell-checking it. Similarly, you should not put up your web pages without testing them. That means looking at your pages on your own machine before testing them on the web – follow links, see how graphics and text fit together, and so on.
Also, looking at your pages in different browsers doesn't hurt. If you can't do it, ask a friend or even a stranger to help. And, of course, don't forget to spell check your pages.
After you upload your files to the web, test again on your own machine, your friends' and neighbour's machines, any machine you have access to – you may be surprised by the differences you see.
Nothing is more frustrating than putting up a site that no one visits. Fortunately, there are many ways to publicize your new website on the internet. Although most of the quality and quick promotion services do cost money, if you're willing to do a bit of the hard work yourself, you will be rewarded with new visitors and search engine rankings in the long-run. checkout our recent article, Online Marketing Techniques – An In-Depth Look for some great ideas on marketing your website.
Put your e-mail address on your home page and ask for comments. You'll be amazed by what people say about your pages. People who have never before seen your site can offer a good, fresh perspective and give you feedback on things that you may not have previously thought about.
Everyone can benefit from outside input. Criticism by your prospective audience is not only useful, it's also educational. You can learn a lot about what people expect and want. Criticism can't hurt anything but your pride, and listening to it almost always improves your site.
A static site is a boring site. True, it works for some purposes, but in general, if you want people to continually revisit your site, you must keep it updated. The best sites are those that continually provide new and interesting content. Include pointers to information that's frequently updated, like "Thought for the day" or "Links to new, cool sites." Let users know how often to expect updates and be sure to showcase new content.
In addition to updating your site, update yourself! Broadening your knowledge of Web design, new trends and technologies, and what's "cool" at the moment can only help in improving your site.
In our next article, we will be looking at the 10 things you shouldn't do when publishing to the web, so be sure to sign up to our RSS feed to be notified when the article is published.

Ujguri (ujgurski: ئۇيغۇر, Uyghur tradicionalni kineski: 維吾爾, pinyin: Wéiwú'ěr) su turkijska etnička skupina koja živi u istočnoj i srednjoj Aziji. Broje oko 7 milijuna pripadnika. Danas Ujguri prvenstveno žive u kineskoj regiji Xinjiang. Oko 80% Ujgura u Xinjiangu živi u jugozapadnom dijelu regije u Tarimskoj zavali.
Najveća zajednica Ujgura izvan Xinjianga u Kini je u Taoyuanu u regiji Hunan. Izvan Kine, značajne zajednice Ujgura postoje u srednjoazijskim zemaljama Kazahstanu, Kirgistanu i Uzbekistanu. Manje zajednice nalaze se u Afganistanu, Pakistanu i Turskoj. Prema religijskoj pripadnosti velika većina ih je sunitski muslimani i govore ujgurskim jezikom.

Jezik

Ujgurski jezik (ئۇيغۇر) je grana istočnoturkijske skupine altajskih jezika, kojim govori oko 8.788.690 ljudi u Kini, Kazahstanu, Afganistanu (3.000), Mongoliji 1.000 (1982). i azijskom dijelu Turske 500 (1981). Većina govornika, njih 8.400,000 (2000.), živi u Kini.

Povijest

Oko 600. godine, pod kineskim utjecajem, prihvaćaju budizam, a od 8. stoljeća među njima se širi i manihejstvo. Godine 745. uništili su državu Turaka Oguza i osnovali Ujgurski kaganat kojeg su 840. godine srušili Kirgizi. Stanovništvo je većim dijelom izbjeglo u kinesku pokrajinu Kansu, gdje su osnovali Istočnu (budističku i manihejsku) i Zapadnu (islamsku) državu.

Godine 1030. Tanguti, preci današnjih Žutih Ujgura, a Zapadnu državu su osvojili Mongoli 1209. godine. srušili su Istočno ujgursko kraljevstvo. Starosjedilački Ujguri (Taranči, Kašgari i Dungani) podigli su 1864. – 1877. veliki ustanak protiv kineske vlasti tijekom kojeg su osnovali nekoliko ujgurskih država. Te je države 1867. godine Jakub-beg povezao u državu Jettišar. Godine 1955. osnovana je Siankiangsko-Ujgurska Autonomna Oblast u okviru Narodne Republike Kine. U srpnja 2009. u Urumqiju, glavnom gradu regije Xinjiang izbili su nasilni neredi. Prvi dan nareda prosvjedovalo je najmanje 1.000 Ujgura u znak protesta protiv etničke skupine Han. U neredima je poginulo 197 osoba a 1.721 ozlijeđena, mnoga vozila i zgrade su uništene, s druge strane, ujgurske skupine u egzilu kažu da je broj poginulih veći. Mnogo ljudi je nestalo tijekom policijskih istraga u danima nakon nereda, Human Rights Watch (HRW) dokumentirao je 43 slučaja i rekao da su brojke vjerojatno puno veće.

"Yellow vests", the heads begin to fall.
The director of proximity security of the Paris metropolitan area (DSPAP), Frédéric Dupuch, will be replaced, it was learned on Tuesday. According to government sources and close to the case, the executive also decided to terminate the duties of Pierre Gaudin, the current chief of staff of the prefect of police, Michel Delpuech. The dismissal of the latter was announced Monday by the Prime Minister. These departures should be formalized in the coming days.
Replace the failed "chain of command"
lamented Monday Edouard Philippe. Regretting an "inhibition" of the police and a policing strategy "not implemented", Christophe Castaner also said that "decisions, instructions have escaped" the police prefect.
After the announcement of the replacement of Michel Delpuech by Didier Lallement at the head of the police headquarters of Paris, Secretary of State for the Interior, Laurent Nuñez had promised Tuesday morning on BFMTV "other sanctions". With these announced departures, the executive decided to profoundly upset the high hierarchy of the powerful police headquarters of Paris facing a new security crisis due to the persistence of the social movement of "yellow vests".

Caregiving for those who suffer from Parkinson's disease comes with many challenges, from how to deal with guilt and loneliness to avoiding burnout and figuring out what to expect from an unpredictable disease. When giving care, too often caregivers neglect their own well-being. Everything You Need to Know About Caregiving for Parkinson's Disease is not just about caring for your loved one, but also about taking care of yourself. Lianna Marie served as her mother's caregiver for more than twenty years after she was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Drawing on firsthand experience, her training as a nurse, and the many stories of others she has helped and counseled over the years, Marie shares her wisdom and advice—practical and emotional. Written accessibly and without jargon, Everything You Need to Know provides an essential resource full of useful information for all caregivers of those with Parkinson's disease.
A trained nurse, Lianna Marie served as her mother's caregiver and advocate for over twenty years through the many stages of Parkinson's disease. She founded AllAboutParkinsons.com, an online community that has connected and helped thousands of people with the disease, their families, and their caregivers.

The new data protection regulation, which comes into force on 25 May 2018, adds new aspects to the current rights and obligations of personal data processors. How can we prepare for this? What are the emerging issues? What is the right to be forgotten and what changes should be made to IT and control systems?
On 26 April, the conference "Right to be forgotten" was held in cooperation with the Estonian Association of Internal Auditors and the weekly newspaper Äripäev, where the above issues were thoroughly discussed.
RASK's attorney Karl Erik Esko gave a presentation on employee privacy giving the audience a better understanding of what can and cannot be done with their employees' data in terms of data protection and labour law.

Anthem: The final day
Mon Apr 2 2012
Anthem Anthem for a Child education Ellie Cowan NCEM OAE Education York York University
Unbelievably, the last day of the Anthem tour has arrived and we find ourselves in the beautiful city of York. As it was the final day we had to go out with a bang and so had organised a complicated day starting in the University and ending in the National Centre for Early Music. Today we performed two concerts, the first one was our 'normal' afternoon schools concert, where four local primary schools joined us and the second concert was a public concert where York University students joined us and played and sang alongside the OAE.
It was a big day with the Jack Lyons Concert Hall providing the perfect setting for our last schools concert of the tour. The battle scene was the most elaborate performance yet – I was wondering how they were going to top the theatre performance, but they did – the woodwind and brass got involved with the (string only) performance by using their instruments as pretend weapons.… The improvisation battle was also very intense with Martin Lawrence (horn) competing against Ken Aiso (violin) in a copying contest – I don't know if you could say who won, but a stunning performance was given by both! The pupils from Bootham, Dringhouses, Heworth and Dunnington schools were simply fantastic in their rendition of Twangling Instruments and My Cry. We were all quite emotional at the end of their performance where 300 voices rang out "I am here!"
The evening concert was a slight change of pace from the schools concerts we have been delivering and was a lovely way to complete the tour. We were joined by university students and gave a performance of Bach's Wachet Auf and Vivaldi's Gloria. The whole night was finished by a final performance of My Cry, where we invited the youngest member of the audience – Kate, a 4 year old pupil who had learnt the piece for the Schools Concert, to join the choir and sing with us. Ceri and I even went up on stage for a final sing and it felt brilliant!

York audience
So that was the end of the tour, I have had a simply fantastic time and felt incredibly privileged to witness all the wonderful work of everyone involved.
Also, today marked the end of the tandem ride – over 700 miles completed alongside 11 concerts – a truly incredible achievement. I think all tandemers were quite sad it was over! It's not over though, well the bike ride is, but we still have a London concert to go, plus the summer term Anthem projects, so… watch this space!
A tired but happy, Ellie Cowan, OAE Education Officer

A: You used maven-surefire-plugin which run unit tests. But in your case, you want to run integration tests.
You have to use the maven-fail-safeplugin in order to run integration tests. This plugin has two goals: integration-test & verify, integrated in the maven lifecycle:

*

*pre-integration-test

*integration-test

*post-integration-test

*verify
So in your case use something like:
<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <phase>integration-test</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>integration-test</goal>
      </goals>
    </execution>
    <configuration>
     ...
    </configuration>
  </executions>
</plugin>

Hope that helps.

A: I cant see anything wrong with your jetty-maven-plugin configuration but how do you handle the Selenium Configuration? Do you have a plugin configuration in that direction?:
<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>selenium-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>${your.selenium.version}</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id>start-selenium</id>
            <phase>pre-integration-test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>start-server</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
                <background>true</background>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
        <execution>
            <id>stop-selenium</id>
            <phase>post-integration-test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>stop-server</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

Then make sure to have the same port for your Jetty server as for your Selenium Testcases (Selenium uses 4444 as default port), e.g. either the default port of 8080 or another port configured with <port>xy</port> in the jetty plugin. In case of the default port it would look something like this:
new DefaultSelenium("localhost",4444,"*firefox","http://localhost:8080″);

To be a kid again. Castorama created "Magic Wallpaper" that actually comes to life with help from a tablet or smartphone. Characters on a child's wall can be scanned one at a time to create a unique bedtime story.
Story possibilities become endless if a parent scans two characters to be paired for a completely different story. Fast math isn't my thing, but with dozens of characters, parents and kids have tons of storytelling options, like the running rhino or princess who doesn't like dresses.

Intelligence in Our Modern Lives
By Murtaza Ali on October 20, 2020 11:05 |
A lot of people know very little about the concept of artificial intelligence. Most individuals learn or come across the term on the killer papers and other similar sites when browsing the internet. So, can you blame them considering their scant IT background? Yes. The "why" comes about because of the influence of technology on the operations of almost every sector in the present dispensation. Further, the influence of tech will only grow as time goes by. So you can't get away with the lack of IT background anymore.
AI consists of an important component of technology. It's a revolutionary tech aspect that came into existence a few years ago but with enormous potential for the future. You probably wonder by now what it means, but in reality, you have interacted with it in one form or another. A lot of information has come to the fore about AI the past couple of years, and creative ways it's getting used.
So what role does artificial intelligence play in the current dispensation?
The role of AI in the Society
Books. Artificial intelligence recently wrote a new series comprising five chapters from going through the Game of Thrones novels. The ability of AI to write stories from a sample can become interesting when contextualizing using a sample of work from students. It can also overcome the writer's block, though it's not clear what the legal copyright ramifications can get generated from such work.
Legal and business. AI can get used to assist students to comprehend more information about rental leases and signing them. Further, clover contracts put machine learning into great use in advising the prospect of not signing or signing contracts. As such, AI can increase the efficiency in processing legal and business documents.
Medicine. AI increasingly gets used in detecting lung cancer, tracking coronavirus, and most recently performing vision tests. Additionally, AI administers medical treatments quicker and it can get accessed easily through tech.
Song Writing. Artificial intelligence has increasingly gotten used in creating songs such as the AC/DC band style song.
Visual Arts. Unique artworks can get created by AI through sampling of several genres and styles of art. As such, students can even apply it in education by adding extra data sets in the AI programming to reproduce actual copies of existing pictures.
The discussed ways above constitute just a few of the various ways AI can get applied in the various sectors and aspects of life. As such, AI can then get conceived from the perspective of education and how to assist kids get a more personalized approach to education. Greater appreciation has gotten placed on AI in light of the COVID-19 health pandemic and the prolonged reliance on the guidelines issued, such as the social distancing regulations.
Contrary to the huge potential and ability of artificial intelligence in education, for instance, AI can only help when there exists a human link to ensure learners grow their SEL skills.
Artificial intelligence plays a significant role and will continue to have a more prominent role in the future. As such, everyone should endeavor to learn more about tech and AI in particular, as they will become central to everything. So get started if you had no interest or had an excuse.

Sony, Panasonic show consumer 4K camcorders
Sony plans to start selling its 4K camcorder in October
Martyn Williams (IDG News Service) on 08 September, 2013 21:44
Panasonic's prototype 4K camcorder on show at IFA 2013
Sony is set to become the first company to offer a consumer-grade camcorder that shoots at four times the detail of today's best high-definition images.
In October, the company plans to begin selling its Handycam FDR-AX1, which supports the new 4K Ultra HD standard. Television sets with screens that can show 4K images are also just beginning to appear on the market as the industry pushes hard to make 4K the next big thing in video.
A 4K picture has a resolution of 3,840 pixels by 2,160 pixels, double the horizontal and vertical resolution of a "full HD" image. For consumers, that means the potential for even finer detail and a better, sharper picture.
In a demonstration at the IFA electronics expo in Berlin, visitors were able to try out one of the cameras. The output from the camera was displayed on a 4K monitor and enabled visitors to see great detail, even when fully zoomed.
The Handycam FDR-AX1 will cost around US$4,500. To be sure, that's expensive but not perhaps as by as much as it first appears. Prices for equivalent Sony high-end consumer or professional camcorders that shoot in high-definition range from $2,800 to $6,000.
The first version of the camera will record in XAVC S, a Sony-developed format based on MPEG4 AVC/H.264. The industry standard AVCHD format used by most consumer camcorders doesn't yet support 4K, but an update is expected in mid-2014, according to Sony.
And if you're wondering how to watch the footage recorded on the camcorder, it has an HDMI 2.0 connector for hooking up to compatible TVs. HDMI 2.0 was just announced and is the first version of the HDMI format to support 4K in full quality.
The camcorder was first seen in January at the CES show in Las Vegas, where it was displayed as a prototype. At this week's IFA in Berlin, fellow Japanese electronics company Panasonic is showing a prototype of its first 4K camcorder.
The company offered no details on when it would be available and didn't allow visitors to handle the device themselves.

The DAIL Division of Licensing and Protection surveys Vermont nursing homes on behalf of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The core licensing requirements are established by CMS. Surveys are conducted annually and when significant complaints, including self-reports form facilities, are received. When surveyors cite a deficiency at a nursing home, the deficiency is given a rating from A though L based on the scope and severity. Although all deficiencies are taken seriously and must be corrected, deficiencies rated F and higher indicate either actual harm to a resident(s) has occurred or the deficiency is widespread at the facility. The higher the number of facilities with F ratings or higher, the higher the number of facilities that have been found to provide substandard quality of care.
Vermont nursing home administrators and staff; Vermont nursing home residents and family members; the Vermont Long Term Care Ombudsman.
DLP operates as an independent, regulatory agency that objectively and fairly evaluates Vermont nursing homes.
DLP will continue to perform assertive surveys of nursing homes, both citing deficiencies and working with facilities to correct deficiencies. This helps to ensure that facilities comply with state and federal regulations that are intended to ensure the quality of care provided in Vermont nursing homes.

'It Is So Powerful To Tell These Stories On Televsion': Rosanny Zayas On Showtime's 'The L Word: Generation Q'
Filed Under:DJ Sixsmith, Only CBS, Showtime
(CBS Local)– Rosanny Zayas was a fan of the "The L Word" growing up, but being at a viewing party to watch the premiere of "The L Word: Generation Q" is something she never could've imagined.
The actor plays Sophie Suarez in Showtime's new iteration of the series called "The L Word: Generation Q." Zayas loves that this show is willing to cover all the different angles of women in their lives, relationships, and careers.
"It takes time to try and dissect the things that connect people and then put it on camera," said Zayas in an interview with CBS Local's DJ Sixsmith. "It took me a while to feel grounded in my character because this is brand new and the Generation Q. It's a new person you're meeting for the first time. I think that the amazing thing about it is Marja-Lewis Ryan, our showrunner and writer, she really wanted to write to us and figure out who we were as people. Honestly, episode three is where I was feeling good."
Zayas says one of the big things she focused on when building this character is the decisions Suarez was making in her life and how they changed her. The Juilliard School graduate loves how the series bridges the gap between an older generation of queer women and a new generation.
"What fascinated me the most was the different generations of queer life," said Zayas. "You have the OG's and they're from a very specific time and they were going through very specific things. Now, you get to meet a whole new group of people living their lives today in 2019. You see what the differences are between those generations and how each generation influences the other. It was pretty amazing. It is so powerful to tell these stories on television."
Watch "The L Word: Generation Q" Sunday nights at 10pm EST/PST or stream it on Showtime Anytime.

Eric Lubrick is a photographer whose most recent work, a series of photographs about growing up as a twin, consists mostly of constructed still life images using objects and color to revisit his childhood memories. Eric Lubrick was born in Baytown, Texas and raised in Louisville, Kentucky where he grew up skateboarding and shooting photographs. Photography became a vehicle to further explore and engage in his surroundings. In 2001-2005 Eric attended Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus, Ohio. He graduated with a BFA in Media Studies. Directly after, Eric went to graduate school at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan and graduated with an MFA in Photography. From 2007 to 2009 Eric lived in Brooklyn, New York where he continued to make art, assist high-end photographers and shoot professionally as a photographer. A full-time commercial studio job brought him back to the Midwest.
Eric has worked for such publications as Allure Magazine, The Huffington Post, Sotheby's, National Geographic and Indianapolis Monthly. Eric is currently based in Indianapolis, Indiana where he is the Senior Photographer at the Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields. In addition to working for the IMA, Eric continues to makes art and shoots freelance for local and international clients.
Being an identical twin is a real life magic trick surrounded by a sort of excitement, surprise and awkwardness. These autobiographic constructed still-lifes are two pieces from my newest series of photographs about life as a twin. Our entire lives we've been asked cliché questions like, "Do you know when your brother is sad?" or "If your brother gets hurt, can you feel it?" Perhaps the most common question we get asked is, "Have your parents or girlfriends ever confused you for the other?" The answer is yes. The astonishment of seeing two people that look identical walk into a room is not lost on me. I, too, find myself asking twins the same type of annoying questions. Often their answers surprise me.
Before my brother and I could speak English we had our own language. The only word we remember is DeeTee, which meant candy. We had the same nightmare once. We no longer remember our twin language, but I'd like to think we communicate on another plane. By building these autobiographic compositions I am able to revisit parts of my life and this twin connection. Twin Boy was the name given to us by the kids in our first neighborhood. Because we looked so similar, most kids we played with couldn't tell us apart. To simplify things, my brother and I both responded to Twin Boy. We are still often confused for each other. It's as if we can be in 2 places at the same time. People who you've never met think they know you, and they kind of do. For better or worse, we can cash in on the efforts of each other.
These two pieces, Hey Twin Boy Birthday Cake and Dee Tee 1 are in a series of my most recent work. They are autobiographical constructed still life about growing up as a twin. By building these compositions I am able to revisit parts of my life. Being an identical twin is a real life magic trick surrounded by a sort of excitement, surprise, and awkwardness. Twin Boy was the name given to us by the kids in our first neighborhood and most people didn't know our actual names. We have often been confused for each other. People who you've never met think they know you, and they kind of do.

Фри́цис Ба́рда (, 25 января 1880 — 13 марта 1919) — латышский поэт-романтик.

Биография
Родился 25 января 1880 года в Поциемской волости Вольмарского уезда Лифляндской губернии Российской империи в крестьянской семье.

Отец — Янис Барда — купил сельский дом, чтобы, согласно законам того времени, получить освобождение от службы в армии. По роду занятий он был портным и всю свою жизнь зарабатывал деньги, чтобы оплачивать счета за взятый в селе дом, которые он так и не выплатил до своей смерти.

Мать Ф. Барды — Иева Барда — до замужества была простой служанкой в богатом доме в Румбини. В семье, кроме Фрициса, было ещё восемь детей (некоторые из них умерли во младенчестве). Младший брат Фрициса — Антон Барда (1891—1981) — тоже стал поэтом. В детстве Фрицис помогал родителям по хозяйству, пас домашнюю скотину и проводил много времени на природе. Вероятно, что это и зародило в душе поэта склонность к романтике и любовь к природе, проявившиеся в его творчестве.

Учился в Поциемской волостной школе, Умургской церковно-приходской школе, Лимбажской городской школе, Валкской семинарии латышских волостных учителей (1898—1901) и на философском факультете Венского университета (1906—1907). Работал помощником учителя Катлакалнской церковно-приходской школы (1901—1905), руководителем литературного отдела журнала «Stari», учителем в реальном училище Атиса Кениньша (1908—1913).

С 1911 читал лекции по эстетике на драматических курсах Екаба Дубурса, работал в средней школе Латвийского союза работников образования (1916 и 1918), был инспектором школ Вольмарского уезда (1917), доцентом Балтийского технического института (1918—1919).

Публиковаться начал с 1902 года. В 1911 году был издан первый лирический сборник «Zemes dēls» (), в котором прослеживается влияние философских работ Фридриха Ницше и Анри Бергсона.

Был женат дважды. вторая жена — Паулина Барда — также была латышской поэтессой. Известно, что с ней Ф. Барда познакомился, подав в газету объявление о знакомстве.

После возвращения из Вены у Фрициса ухудшилось самочувствие, что в дальнейшем привело к скоропостижной кончине писателя. Умер в Риге 13 марта 1919 года, похоронен на Умургском кладбище.

В родном доме поэта, в нынешней Катварской волости Лимбажского края, был открыт мемориальный музей. В 1933 году на могиле был установлен памятник работы скульптора Теодора Залькалнса.

Латышские литературные критики, анализируя работы Фрициса Барды, сходятся во мнении, что поэт был глубоко религиозен, однако его религия не была схожа с традиционными. Религия Ф. Барды представляет собой синтез пантеизма и панентеизма — последнее чётко выражено в сборниках последних стихов Ф. Барды, опубликованных уже после его кончины.

 «Zemes dēls» (1911)

Bearded Sedge For Sale Online. Low Wholesale Prices.
The Bearded Sedge is a small growth, usually growing every summer to between two and six inches high and has one to three leafed culms or stems that shoot out from its base.
These stems end in a cluster of little spike-like growths. The flat growths themselves are about¼ long. A bunch of these spike growth will usually have from 6 to 10 flowers. These groups are typically either light green, yellowish, or brown. This tiny but sturdy plant is found all over the world in a wide variety of climates but does the best in wet environments.
It is a strikingly resilient plant that even does well in sandy or rocky soils. In every terrain or geographical location, most of its growth takes place during the summer months. It can be found throughout Africa, Asia, Australia, North and South America, and Europe. The Bearded Sedge is part of the Cyperaceae hedge family, a large family that includes more than 2,000 international species.
This sedge is often found mixed with various types of grass and can be mistaken for it. Its unique spike formations can distinguish it.
Bearded Sedge is also known as Cyperus squarrosus. Hardy planting zones are 2-8. The growth rate is up to 3-inches per year. Bearded Sedge is commonly referred to as Bearded Flat Sedge. The summer annual reaches 2-6 inches in height. Bearded Flat Sedge flourishes in full to partial sun and needs moist to wet soil. Types of land can range from sandy to muddy.
It blooms from mid-summer to early fall. The wind pollinates the blooms. Each bloom is enclosed in a light green scale. The flowers have no petals and have a spiky appearance. This sedge has bright green angular leaves. The flat leaf blade grows up to 3 inches long and 1/8 of an inch wide.
Beautiful on riverbanks or around ponds! Love it!

Domestic Violence in Nepal: A Discourse Analysis of the Research Publications of International Development Institutions
Claire Willey Sthapit
PhD Candidate, University of Washington
Critical examination of international development discourses have shown that the norms and values of more powerful groups have often been upheld as the standard, while historic and current relationships of global privilege and oppression remain unrecognized. Knowledge produced about developing countries has been criticized as playing a key role in depoliticizing social issues and maintaining global hierarchies. Discourses related to gender-based violence have also been critiqued for their propensity to construct non-Western and non-white women based on their victim status, and to stereotype entire cultures as being violent toward women, even as men who are violent in the West are considered aberrations. Such constructions not only lead to discursive harm, but have been used to justify coercive action by already powerful groups, including colonization, wars, and the sealing of borders. In the contexts of international development interventions such discourses can lead to negative stereotyping and more restrictive interventions rather than interventions that recognize structural barriers and build on the strengths of the communities served.
Perhaps in answer to critiques of international development, global development institutions have increasingly promoted participatory approaches, particularly related to women's empowerment. In Nepal, growing recognition of the issue of domestic violence is evidenced by the Domestic Violence Act (2009) and the government declaration of 2010 as "the Year to End Gender-based Violence," including domestic violence. This study employs a discourse analysis methodology to examine current international development discourses through the case of domestic violence in Nepal.
The sample for this study consists of research publications produced by international development institutions that address domestic violence in Nepal. These were purposively selected through on-line searches using Google and the UN's Kathmandu-based repository, perusal of major international donor websites, and the reference lists of sample documents. Documents were coded using qualitative software and targeted summaries of each publication were written. Within and cross-case analysis was conducted with an eye towards understanding the construction of domestic violence and the actors involved, as well as the ways in which sources and types of knowledge were ranked.
In these reports, hierarchies of knowledge are often set up which emphasize large scale surveys over qualitative assessments, global over local knowledge, and modernity over tradition. However, several of these reports also critique global social hierarchies. For example, they recognize the potential strengths of families and communities in Nepal to address violence, as well as some of the negative impacts of current global economic structures on families. Such moments of discursive resistance, which must simultaneously recognize and address domestic violence wherever it occurs, are highlighted as promising approaches for future development research, policy and practice.


Small and medium-sized towns and cities (SMCs) are essential to boosting growth in the Northern Powerhouse, according to a new report from think tank, IPPR North.
The research finds that the North's smaller cities represent one third of the Northern economy and play a key role supporting the growth of their bigger neighbours.
The report calls for greater recognition of the complementary roles played by SMCs as part of broader "city systems" to avoid the housing and congestion problems faced by London. This would be more like the kind of successful regions seen in Germany, the Netherlands and other parts of Europe. Growth rates in the 20 SMCs with populations over 75,000 match levels seen in major cities. This includes Wigan, Doncaster, Burnley and Wakefield – with productivity in Wigan higher than in neighbouring Manchester.
The analysis also finds that many small and medium-sized cities face significant challenges from not being better connected to bigger cities. But they can overcome these problems with a clear focus on their own economic strengths; tackling local skills problems; and collaborating with big-city neighbours.
•Treating SMCs in a similar way to the way government treats small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with bespoke support to foster local strengths.
•Taking a more "European" attitude to how we plan our economy, instead of following US city-thinking which is more suited to countries with large distances between cities – European cities tend to be much more interconnected than American cities.
•Reviewing the London-centric system of transport funding which favours major cities, to a system which takes more understanding of the emerging evidence on the role of smaller cities in the wider "urban ecosystem".
•Small and medium-sized cities need to do more to identify and articulate their unique roles as part of wider "city systems".


Republican presidential candidate and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee will be visiting southwest Iowa on Wednesday. His stops will include the communities of Clarinda, Red Oak, and Creston. Details for the visits are below.

Antonoff announced the creation of Bleachers at the beginning of the year which led to fans of fun. assuming he had left the band (of the band had broken up) that helped launch him to mainstream status. After reassuring them that both fun. and Bleachers were his "children," they warmed up to the idea.
Bleachers then went on to release their debut record Strange Desire, this past Summer.

I have woken up on the right side of the bed today. Miraculously. As far as I can tell, bedbug-and-flea-bite free, too.
In my little skanky hotel room in Addis Ababa, which totally terrified me yesterday....but today, with the window open and the sound of literally dozens of different birds chirping away (and the occasional meowing cat-in-heat), after having an impossibly restful sleep....I do not completely regret coming here, to Ethiopia, like I did yesterday. I have given up the fear of spiders (saw one already), malarial mosquitos (had a duel with one last night, me smacking the walls until I think he was at least injured, if not dead), and basically am coming to the conclusion that being scared doesn't help so I might as well at least *pretend* to be brave.
Yes, my ankle is still swollen and sprained and sore. Yes, I am procrastinating on taking a shower because the bathroom seems like one giant hazardous material room - the hazard of hitting my head on the low ceiling and protruding pipes, the fact the toilet is on a little wobbly ledge, or the simple state of caked-on-grime.
Yes, walking the streets is still a somewhat shocking and humbling experience - a man yesterday "befriended me" (played friendly for an hour to ask me for money afterwards to help him buy a book), taking me into literally a shanty/corrugated metal/tin roof decrepit basement to chew qat (which I declined, feeling wobbly enough as is). Yes, I am in over my head and having to swim twice as hard to stay afloat...but today I am feeling a lot more optimistic.
I met a girl last night from Colorado, who took me out for peanut butter tea - the local specialty. (a bit like a hot peanut butter milkshake, but better then it initially sounds). She had returned from traveling India and was heading back to Uganda where she had spent 5 months working. She said those places were easy to travel, compared to Ethiopia. Even Kenya, she thought was much more "user-friendly", but she gave me a bit of much needed encouragement, seeing as she had spent 2 weeks here already. She talked about how Ethiopia really makes you confront your own issues, and if you are up for it, can be an incredible adventure.
So here I am, in East Africa's most challenging country, feeling a bit terrified but at least slightly better than yesterday. Nobody comes to Ethiopia for an easy vacation, and its not because the sights and tourist draws arent there (Gondar Castle, and Lalibela could easily be the next Petra), but simply because it is so extremely poor, and ramshackle, it hasnt the infrastructure to support it. Which leaves me, the traveler with a genuine sense of adventure...in between biting my nails and getting an ulcer stressing out on just how to...do this.
At least the food is delicious and cheap!

Western Nevada precipitation may be headed for extremes
Local | February 1, 2018
by Anne Knowles
aknowles@nevadaappeal.com

Nevada Appeal |
The amount of precipitation Western Nevada receives in the coming decades could remain the same, but more will fall as rain and the snowpack will melt earlier in the season.
And while the average amount may not change significantly, precipitation will come and go in more extreme weather events.
"Think of the last eight years, very dry and very wet," U.S. Geological Survey Research Hydrologist Mike Dettinger told attendees at the 2018 Water Summit hosted by Carson Water Subconservancy District on Tuesday. "That's more what our future looks like in terms of precipitation."
The biggest storms will likely be 20 percent larger or as much as 40-50 percent bigger in the worst-case scenario, he said.
"The projection that the storms would be less frequent, but bigger when they came, was cause for some alarm," said Carson City Public Works Director Darren Schulz, who attended the event. "After the two storms we had back to back last year and knowing the damage that was caused, I would have to say that we would need to start planning differently when it comes to storm water."
By the end of the century, temperatures are predicted to rise by 6 degrees, if greenhouse gas emissions level off, or 9 degrees if emissions continue to rise, Dittenger said.
"This isn't rocket science," he said. "If there are warmer winters there will be more rain than snow and earlier snowmelt."
The total outflow of water will not change much, said Dittenger, because earlier runoff means less evaporation.
But those users higher in the Carson River watershed will get the water earlier than they might want.
The growing season will start earlier and end later, extending it two months to 40 days, he said.
"I don't know if that's good news or bad news. That's for you to say," said Dittenger.
Snow levels — elevation, not amount — already are rising while snow is falling.
Benjamin Hatchett, postdoctoral fellow, Desert Research Institute, talked about 10 years of data, from 2008 to 2017, collected in the northern Sierra.
"We estimate a decrease of 3 percent a year or nearly a 30-percent decrease in the fraction of precipitation that falls as snow," said Hatchett.
Looking at data collected since 1951, the last 10 years show the steepest decline in snow fractions, he said.
At the same time, measurements of snow levels, the elevation where snow changes to rain, rose 1,200 feet.
Geological Survey hydrologist Wes Kitlasten said some the early runoff could be stored in the aquifer.
"Carson Valley lacks storage, which prompted us to look at managed aquifer recharge," he said.
The process is essentially winter irrigation to recharge groundwater in areas with a deep enough water table, which include the Gardnerville Ranchos.
"But it's not long-term. It will flow through by the end of the year," he said.
Carson City is considering more storage, too.
"The city is starting to look into possible options of surface water storage such that the water could be held temporarily, and then used later when the summer really gets hot and the demand is higher," said Schulz.
"This will take a lot of effort to analyze and will likely take a couple years to know if it's even feasible, but we are most definitely looking into it."
Another idea is indirect potable reuse by further treating reclaimed water and discharging it into reservoir or groundwater as a drinking water source.
Right now, 80 percent of Nevada's water is reused on 50 golf courses and 13 agricultural sites, said Bruce Holmgren, chief, water pollution control, Nevada Department of Environmental Protection.
There are categories of reusable water, from A to E, with A being the most treated for use in snowmaking, food crop irrigation, commercial window washing, and other applications.
Holmgren said water can be treated to meet drinking water standards, what he called an A+ category for reuse.
"The treatment is easy," Holmgren said. "The toughest part is public acceptance. Most people don't respond positively to the idea."
State Engineer Jason King said a fifth of the state's 256 water basins are considered severely over-appropriated.
Only one so far, in central Nevada's Diamond Valley, has been designated a critical management area.
The state engineer's office is working with water rights holders there now on a groundwater management plan.
"They're submitting a plan within the month. Plans are to reduce pumping by 30 percent in the first 10 years," said King.


Digital leaders is a project which is being run as an extension to Core IT. Students selected as digital leaders can help to embed the use of technology across the school. This is accomplished by attending regular meetings, supporting other pupils in class, assisting members of staff to run themed event days and other whole-school events as well as lead on improvements in e-safety provision.
Digital leaders have also been involved in the creation of a Blog, the Blog is written under the supervision of Teaching staff at Oak Grove College and covers areas of technology news, software reviews, and coding projects. This enables the teaching of new skills and by doing this students can learn how to create content to be published online and how to leave a positive digital footprint.
The Digital Leaders project also presents an opportunity to work co-operatively with other schools in a partnership, sharing ideas and collaborating on projects. The skills and use of technology are transferable into the workplace or to pursue in Further Education College courses.

Calexico & Macha
by Christopher Porter June 9th, 2000 August 29th, 2020
Tucson, Ariz., multi-instrumentalist duo Calexico and Athens, Ga., multi-instrumentalist quartet Macha (pictured) both traffic in the now-flourishing genre of imaginary film soundtracks. But while Calexico tunes would sound just fine in a Quentin Tarantino or Robert Rodriguez flick, Macha would have to take its songs east to find appropriate scoring work. Calexico mainstays John Covertino and Joey Burns play drums, vibraphone, marimba, organ, accordion, assorted percussion, bass, guitar, and cello, as well as sing. The band's third and latest CD, Hot Rail, continues down the dusty trail of its predecessors: mariachi-flavored, Duane Eddydamaged, Giant Sand-informed (a band both Covertino and Burns play in) tales of mystery and woe. Both Macha main man Joshua McKay and bandmate Kai Riedl have spent considerable time in Indonesia, adding the country's music to a sonic education that also includes extensive studies of Sonic Youth and Can. On the band's self-titled debut and last summer's See It Another Way, McKay, Riedl, and fellow multitalented guy Wes Martin share duties on vocals, hammered dulcimer, vibraphone, guitar, bass, various double-reed horns, gongs, and Baldwin Fun Machine organ. Its latest effort, the collaborative Macha Loved Bedhead, sounds more like the former than the latter, which is a damn good thing, since the somnambulant (and now defunct) Bedhead is hardly in Macha's class. Calexico and Macha perform with Knife in the Water at 9 p.m. Saturday, June 10, at IOTA, 2832 Wilson Blvd., Arlington. $12. (703) 522-8340. (Christopher Porter)


Chinmaya Mission Kansas City began in 2009 under the guidance of Acharya Sharada Kumar, CM Ann Arbor.
Chinmaya Bala Vihar has been the main focus of CM Kansas City. From a handful of children, it has now grown to over 225 students. Currently there are over 130 families who benefit from the various activities of the mission. After the Bala Vihar classes, students regroup to learn a language of their choice. Currently Hindi, Tamil and Telugu languages are offered.
In addition to Bala Vihar and language classes, more than three study groups meet on a weekly basis to learn and discuss various vedantic texts. Chinmaya Mission Kansas City invites various Acharyas from Chinmaya Mission to deliver discourses on Vedanta literature.
Several community outreach projects like CORD are held every year.

Cue counting
Cue counting is a density / abundance estimation method in which, instead of surveying for the animals themselves, we look for cues the animals produce. Classic examples were whale blows (the literature that coined the term), nests or dung, but bird songs or whale sounds have taken over these methods in the last few years. A key difference is present regarding instantaneous versus cues that persist. To convert densities of cues to animal densities we need cue rates for the former (e.g. whale blows or beaked whale clicks), but cue rates and cue disappearance rates for the latter (e.g. nests and dung).

Cameron Joseph contributed reporting.
Republican's seven-years-and-counting crusade to repeal the Affordable Care Act did not end with Friday morning's nail-biter of a failed vote.
Though Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) essentially admitted defeat after three Republican defections tanked the GOP's last-ditch effort to pass something out of the Senate and get to conference with the House, and despite most Republican members leaving the chamber despondent and resigned, others defiantly stated the obvious: They will keep trying, possibly forever, to dismantle President Obama's health care legacy.
"This journey is not yet done," Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) announced minutes after the vote went down in flames. "I believe Obamacare will be repealed."
Over on the House side, Republicans made the same point, detailing specific ways they may attempt to keep the dream alive.
"I believe that we can deliver still on health care," Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC), the chair of the influential, hardline Freedom Caucus, insisted to reporters on Friday. "To suggest that everything is over is not understanding the dynamics that are going on right now in the Senate."
Meadows, who has been in close consultation with Senate conservatives for months, said they plan to get Congressional Budget Office scores on proposals from Sens. Cruz, Rob Portman (R-OH), Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Bill Cassidy (R-LA), allowing them to tuck those policies back into the same comprehensive Trumpcare bill that failed in the Senate earlier this week.
"You can still do the motion to proceed, then can bring that back up at this particular point," Meadows emphasized. "This is just one try on the Senate side. We probably have two more tries before we have to pack it up and go home."
Though Republicans admitted the votes this week were a major setback, and some have openly thrown in the towel on repeal and are instead advocating for a bipartisan process to fix the health care markets, we have seen before how Republicans' long-term effort to undo Obamacare can go underground—bubbling below the surface for months until they feel the time is ripe to try again.
We saw it in the House, where just a few weeks after Ryan canceled a doomed repeal vote and announced that "Obamacare is the law of the land," a furious round of vote-whipping and horse-trading brought the bill back from the dead. Similar back-room negotiations could drag on in the Senate for months or years to come.
Senate leaders may also have an eye on the 2018 midterm elections, where Democrats have to play defense on far more seats than Republicans. If the GOP can win even one or two more seats, they may have the votes they need to muscle through some version of an Obamacare repeal bill.

Léon Jean Jacques Baréty (18 October 1883 – 10 February 1971) was a French politician who was briefly Minister of Industry and Commerce  in 1940.

Early years (1883–1919

Léon Jean Jacques Baréty was born in Nice on 18 October 1883.
His father was Alexandre Baréty, an eminent doctor who was a general councilor of the Alpes-Maritimes from 1880 to 1904.
Léon Baréty received his secondary education in the lycée of Nice, then obtained a diploma in Finance from the Ecole des sciences politiques, followed by a doctorate in Law from the Faculty of Paris. His thesis was on the evolution of local banks in France and Germany.

In 1905 Baréty was attached to the office of the Minister of the Interior.
In 1910 he was elected councilor-general of the Alpes-Maritimes for the Puget-Théniers canton, an office he held for thirty years.
In 1912 he was appointed deputy chief of staff to Paul Deschanel, president of the Chamber of Deputies.
He served in the armed forces in World War I (1914–18), and was demobilized in June 1919.

National politics (1919–41)

Baréty was elected deputy for the Alpes-Maritimes on 16 November 1919 on the Left Democratic Republican list.
He was reelected on the same list on 11 May 1924.
He was a member of the colonial group in the Chamber of Deputies.
He became vice-president of this group, and president of the Morocco and Tunisia group.
Baréty felt that different forms of rule should be used for different cultural groups, and should be compatible with the local beliefs, laws and customs.
In 1924 he pointed out the dilemma of education in the colonies. He said "it would be criminal to leave our native subjects in ignorance".
On the other hand, education might "create rebels, discontented, déclassé natives ... plant seeds of rancor in the people who prepare to revolt."
He recommended a policy of association rather than assimilation.

Baréty was reelected on the Left Republicans list on 22 April 1928.
He was under-secretary of state for Public Education, responsible for technical education, in the first cabinet of André Tardieu (13 November 1929 – 21 February 1930).
He was under-secretary of state for the Budget in the second Tardieu cabinet from 2 March 1930 to 14 December 1930.
He was elected president of the general council of the Alpes-Maritimes in 1932.
In 1932 he published la France au Maroc (France in Morocco), which won awards from the Académie française and the Académie des sciences morales et politiques.

Baréty was reelected to the Chamber of Deputies on the Left Republicans list on 1 May 1932.
He was reelected on the list of the Left Republican and Radical Independent Alliance on 26 April 1936.
He was Minister of Industry and Commerce in the cabinet of Paul Reynaud from 18 May 1940 to 5 June 1940.
He voted in favor of giving Marshal Philippe Pétain full powers on 10 July 1940.
Baréty was appointed a member of the Vichy national council during the German occupation of France.
He said later, "I did not refuse my appointment to this Council because I thought I would be able to bring to the Government the voice of the country's complaints—and that is what I did."

Later career (1941–71)

Due to his vote on 10 July 1940 Baréty was rendered ineligible for public office after the Liberation of France.
He asked for a jury of honor to reverse this ruling, saying, "You have to remember the situation of France in late June 1940, the complete disarray of the population, the exodus of millions of inhabitants, a completely disorganized army whose leaders themselves asked them to lay down their arms."
On 24 April 1945 the jury rejected his request.
He appealed to the Council of State, which annulled the jury's decision and referred the case to another jury.
This jury eventually removed his ineligibility on 17 October 1947.

In March 1953 Baréty was elected municipal councilor for Puget-Théniers.
He did not seek reelection in 1957.
He became a corporate director, and in 1958 was president of the French committee for Expo 58 in Brussels.
In 1960 he was president of the Paris-based International Bureau of Exhibitions (BIE), which decided which city would hold the World Fair each year.
Léon Baréty died in Nice on 10 February 1971.
He was a commander of the Legion of Honour and a Grand Officer of the Belgian Order of Leopold.

UFV Sports Sunday – Wrestling
Wrestling: Hildenbrandt, Godinez Gonzalez excel at Cascades Classic
Podium performances from Brad Hildenbrandt and Karla Godinez Gonzalez highlighted the University of the Fraser Valley wrestling program's third annual Canada West home tournament, the Cascades Classic.
At the Envision Athletic Centre on Sunday, Hildenbrandt finished atop the men's heavyweight (130 kg) division, pinning both of his opponents – Kyle Nguyen of the Winnipeg Wesmen and Donovan Dale of the Saskatchewan Huskies. The win over Nguyen was particularly gratifying for Hildenbrandt, as the Winnipeg grappler is a former U Sports national champion (2015).
Godinez Gonzalez continued her promising rookie campaign, taking bronze in the women's 51 kg weight class. Her lone loss came in the semifinals to SFU's Abby Lloyd, but the Surrey product bounced back to win her next two matches on the back side of the draw to clinch third place.
"Brad wrestled extremely well – he beat a guy (Nguyen) he's lost to numerous times in the past, and that guy was a national champion," noted Raj Virdi, who serves as the Cascades' co-head coach alongside Arjan Bhullar. "So it was good to see that monkey get off his back.
"And Karla . . . lost to a girl who is a national champion. It was close, but the last time she wrestled her (Lloyd), she got pinned pretty quick. This time (losing on points), you can see that her development is progressing very well."
The event drew 135 competitors from the six Canada West teams (UFV, Alberta, Calgary, Saskatchewan, Regina and Winnipeg), NCAA Div. 2 squads Simon Fraser and Western Washington, and local club programs.
"When we get an opportunity like this (to host a tournament) it's something special, because in our community wrestling is really popular," Virdi noted. "Being able to have all these teams here and show off our school, it really shows that we have a solid program and we're going to be a tough team to beat in the future."
In other UFV action, Ashley Coupal finished fifth in the same 51 kg weight class as Godinez Gonzalez – the teammates did not cross paths in the draw – and Pravi Dhaliwal was sixth in a highly competitive women's 59 kg division. Kamil Golowoko was second to Winnipeg's Finn Higgins in a two-man 100 kg division, and Amtoj Dhaliwal (men's 82 kg) and Haseeb Javed (men's 61 kg) also posted 0-2 records in their respective weight classes.
In the team standings, the Cascades finished fifth among Canada West teams on both the men's and the women's sides. The team champions' banners went to the Saskatchewan Huskies men and the Alberta Pandas women.
Sunday's tournament was the Canada West regular-season finale – the conference championships run Feb. 10-11 in Saskatoon, followed by the U Sports national championships Feb. 24-26 in Winnipeg.
