Q: I have the following code for encryption and decryption. I manage to encrypt the string but can not decrypt it back Here the code for encryption
Did I code it correctly? or I need to make a change? I am using visual studio 2013 and framework 4.5.
            cipherData = textBox_Plain_text.Text;
            plainbytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(cipherData);
            plainKey = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes("0123456789abcded");
            desObj.Key = plainKey;
            desObj.Mode = CipherMode.CBC;
            desObj.Padding = PaddingMode.PKCS7;

            System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
            CryptoStream cs = new CryptoStream(ms, desObj.CreateEncryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Write);
            cs.Write(plainbytes, 0, plainbytes.Length);
            cs.Close();
            cipherbytes = ms.ToArray();
            ms.Close();
            textBox_Encrypted_text.Text = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(cipherbytes);

Here the code for decryption. After I try to decrypt it, only first letter show up
  System.IO.MemoryStream ms1 = new System.IO.MemoryStream(cipherbytes);
  CryptoStream cs1 = new CryptoStream(ms1, desObj.CreateDecryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Read);

            cs1.Read(cipherbytes, 0, cipherbytes.Length);
            plainbytes2 = ms1.ToArray();
            cs1.Close();
            ms1.Close();
            textBox_Decrypted_text.Text = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(plainbytes2);

There is a simple yet proven practice brought down by Rav Chaim m'Volozhin ztk'l that empowers us to live with strong emuna and acceptance. It is founded on the principle that nothing controls our destiny but G-d. Thus Rav Chaim taught that by repeating the words Ein od Milvado (there is none other than Him) and implanting in our heart there is no other force but G-d; we can break free of any encounter that manipulates our connection with Him.
Thus is the power of emuna and bitachon. Fundamentally, emuna is the constant practice of reminding ourselves how much G-d loves and cares for us even if life is not exactly what we hoped for. Talk to G-d, air out your concerns, you may not be granted your requests but you will certainly gain a tremendous feeling of closeness and feel His loving embrace.
Remind yourself today how much G-d loves and cares for you; in fact He loves you like no other!

Medical marijuana patients may use less than prescribers dole out
Ryan Murphy | February 1, 2018
The average medical marijuana patient likely uses less of the drug than prescribers think, according to an industry participant whose company has experience with coverage under its benefits plan.
Speaking at an event held by Aon Hewitt in Toronto on Wednesday, Jonathan Tafler, senior director of product and operations for employer health solutions at Shoppers Drug Mart Inc., discussed the company's experience since it added medical marijuana coverage to its employee benefits plan for certain conditions, such as nausea and vomiting related to chemotherapy. As part of the new benefit, the company introduced a coverage limit of $1,500 per year, an amount Tafler said might differ from other industry estimates of annual costs for the drug.
"What we found, though, is that in actual fact, while prescribers are prescribing . . . on an average of 2.3 grams per day, what we're finding is that the usage is actually less than a gram a day on balance, certainly for those indications but also for others. The average usage has been around 0.7 grams per day and, with the proper agreements with suppliers and proper pricing controls, actually that lands at more of a $2,000 per annum cost for an employee. So we thought $1,500 maximum without co-pay was a reasonable starting point in that regard," he said.

The Shoppers Drug Mart experience was among two case studies discussed at the event. Also speaking at the event was Lucian Schulte, senior vice-president and national analytics and innovation leader at Aon Hewitt. He spoke about a client that was taking a wait-and-see approach to covering the drug.
Schulte said his client opted to hold back due to a lack of requests for the drug, challenges around determining how to cover it and questions about prescribing. Costs were also a concern, as were the company's existing wellness strategies, he said.
"So the primary delivery method for cannabis typically is through combustion, through smoking. And the plan currently has a strong emphasis on wellness and non-smoking and smoking cessation therapies. And so when we looked at if we were to not cover potentially dried cannabis and look at cannabis oils as potentially an alternative, the cost for cannabis oils is anywhere from 40 to 100 per cent more than dried cannabis," said Schulte.

Schulte noted his client is also waiting to see if other products will come to Canada, such as an inhaler currently at the trial stage in Israel that doesn't combust the marijuana and allows for exact dosing.
In Shoppers Drug Mart's case, the company wanted to make the drug available based on its clinical merits and a feeling that there's a medical need, said Tafler.
Another reason, he noted, was a number of studies showing how medical cannabis led to significant reductions in opioid prescribing.
"They've shown as much as a 30 per cent reduction in opioid prescribing. It's been very public in Canada, the harms of opioid use and abuse, and so if we can reduce that through a safer, more effective treatment, I think that the onus is on us as employers and the insurance industry to do that," he said.
"And in addition, from a cost perspective, because medical marijuana isn't free, we look at offsetting the cost of our investment in that . . . with reduction in other prescribing. And it's not a small bucket. Depending on your plan, you could be seeing opioid use in the three to six per cent range in terms of the total cost to your plan. We're talking hundreds of millions of dollars in Canada spent on opioids by private plans."

One the company made a decision to cover the drug, it had a number of other issues to consider, Tafler noted. They included which criteria to use to approve or deny coverage, how the plan would be certain a claim is for true medical use and developing processes to administer the benefit.
The company also had to address human resources issues, including the code of conduct and policies around fitness for duty, substance abuse and smoking. "We found it was more tweaks than a full redrafting of those policies," said Tafler.
He noted claim volume has been lower than expected, which he attributed to a conservative cost methodology and awareness.
"What we hear from our care partners is awareness of a benefit. Any new benefit typically takes several years for your plan members to be aware of, so we may be seeing a bit of a lag effect," he said.

You have a low score, so I'm going to guess you have some charged-off, unpaid or seriously delinquent accounts on your credit report. The damage to your credit score has already happened. What you can do initially is make sure the negatives reported on your credit file are accurate and not out of date. Look over your credit reports, and dispute any negative items that you don't think are yours or are more than 7 years old. Once you have ensured your history is accurate, you can work on adding new, positive data.
While many consumers struggle to pay unsecured debts, bankruptcy is a solution intended for the most extreme cases — cases where families cannot get out of debt any other way. If a debtor has the financial means to repay their debts and gain a fresh start on their own, bankruptcy attorneys would likely counsel them on other options, such as meeting with a credit counselor and starting a debt management plan.
Your best bet is to call and ask to see if they can put you on a payment plan where you can afford to pay them (even if it's just the bare minimum a month) or if they will possibly settle for less money. A tip: anything that has your name attached (banking account,utility bills, credit cards, anything you finance, student loans, medical bills, car loans, home loans, your apartment, etc) that you miss a few payments on or don't pay at all can be reported to the credit agencies and sold to collections companies.


The opportunistic pathogen Candida glabrata shows a concerning increase in drug resistance. Here, we present the analysis of two serial bloodstream isolates, obtained 12 days apart. Both isolates show pan-azole resistance and echinocandin resistance was acquired during the sampling interval. Genome sequencing identified nine nonsynonymous SNVs between the strains, including a S663P substitution in FKS2 and previously undescribed SNVs in MDE1 and FPR1, offering insight into how C. glabrata acquires drug resistance and adapts to a human host.

As we look forward to upcoming holiday celebrations, I have great news to share. Following a plant-based diet IS possible during the holidays and in social settings in general! For a long time I put off adopting a plant-based diet because I was worried what people would think and that I'd be left out. Now I know that those concerns were not valid. In this post, I'll take you inside my fully plant-based holiday party, which was a huge hit among all of my friends! I'll also address the issue of dietary changes and the social response.
Here are some tips to help you lead the charge, when making healthy choices around friends.
It is understandable to be apprehensive about adopting a plant-based or even a vegetarian or vegan diet in light of how often we are likely to eat with people who are on the Standard American Diet. SAD (ironic acronym, right?) is a diet heavy in animal protein, largely incorporating toxic meat and dairy. This diet has been linked to many chronic illnesses and diseases that impede quality and length of life. (To learn more, please check out this New York Times article by Dr. Dean Ornish). While there could be people who are not very supportive, or just interested in your dietary changes, there will also be people who look positively on your changes, and that is the group that will be key to your journey.
Being a plant-based eater in my group of friends is a huge perk. Where I was once always compromising in going out to restaurants, concert venues, and outdoor festivals with poor food options, and often poor environments for overall wellness, I'm now approached for health-focused outings and events. My friends associate me with health, since they know it is now my passion. They send me links to new vegan restaurants and wellness events, and we go together. Everyone has their thing, and whatever yours is, your friends love it, because they're your friends.
Many people in my life have gone out of their way to make special plant-based options when I come over for dinner, or check for vegan options at events and restaurants where I'll be attending. Some of them try the recipes on my blog, or comment on my articles when they see me. Going plant-based not only improved my health, but it made me realize just how lucky and supported I am. I always loved my friends and family, but I never knew just how much they loved me.
I encourage you to follow your heart. You'll find that what's on your fork, really does connect to love.
So how do we start to change? The best way is to try new dishes, make easy substitutions (like almond milk for dairy milk, or tempeh for meat, or water for oil), and share your food with others so that they can learn how these foods taste and improve the way they feel. Here are a few quick and easy party dishes that are perfect for the holidays!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line muffin tin with muffin liners. For best results I recommend muffin liners that do not use any sort of toxic dyes or coating. Cut open each date and remove the pits. Blend bananas and dates in a food processor. Mix the oat flour, oats, flax seeds, cinnamon, sea salt, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Add the wet mixture from the food processor into the bowl with the dry ingredients. As you stir by hand, pour in the 1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk. Finally stir in the raspberries and chocolate chunks. If soft, the raspberries will break apart and create a lovely marble pattern! Bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
Click here to jump to the recipe. We suggest using pecans instead of walnuts for the holidays!
Wash and chop up zucchini horizontally into 1/4" wide chips. Slice up the avocado and place a small slice on each zucchini chips. Drizzle the lemon juice over the whole dish, once each chip is spread out on a large plate. If the lemon has a lot of seeds, squeeze the juice first into a mug and use a strainer to remove seeds. Grind pepper or a seasoning mix on top.
May you go boldly into the future and be your best you. We're on your team, and it is our goal to support you through this blog in whatever changes you make to incorporate more healthy, whole plant foods. We wish you health, happiness, and love!
What Can I Eat for Thanksgiving?


A broad-based destination image research study conducted across 14 countries by the Tourism Authority of Thailand has provided clear pointers on ways to sharpen the imagery and message of the country's upcoming "Thainess" tourism campaigns.
The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has carried out a broad-based consumer research study in five key European markets in order to better understand how they perceive Thailand and what "buttons" need to be pressed to maintain visitor flows.
The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has divided its action plan into five implementation categories under the acronym, "DISCO Plan." The five categories include: Digital marketing, Image-building, Sustainable Development, Crystallization/Crisis Management, and Organization Management.
Thailand recorded a 31% increase in tourism receipts in 2011 over 2010, according to Ministry of Tourism and Sports figures.
The Thai tourism industry continued its strong performance in the first six months of 2012, with total arrivals of 10,496,789, up 7.60% over the same period of 2011.
The Tourism Authority of Thailand has set a domestic tourism target of 107.4 million trips with revenue earnings of 453 billion Baht (USD 14.36 billion) in 2013.
Contestants from Croatia, Taiwan and Australia each have won free week-long holidays in Thailand after participating in an online competition designed to promote the kingdom as a "Creative Tourism" destination.
Thailand opened a new chapter in the history of its travel & tourism industry by holding its first trade show that focused heavily on four key niche-market segments that are set to be major growth areas in future.
Adventure travel enthusiasts seeking to try their hand at 100 Unforgettable Experiences in Thailand can log onto a new website http://adventure.tourismthailand.org and take their pick.
Indians are known to travel year round and it is no surprise that the most visited destination by Indians is a 365-day holiday spot like no other – Thailand.
On March 8, 2012, at approximately 10:00 pm local time, a fire broke out at the Grand Park Avenue Bangkok Hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 22. Sadly, the fire resulted in one confirmed fatality of a foreign national. The nationality of that individual has not yet been confirmed.
The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has established a new Internet Call Center, an online based system that revolutionizes the current Tourism in Thailand method. This new system allows Thailand visitors to be updated on the latest tourist information.

Durant had foot surgery on Thursday to address a Jones fracture in his right foot.
At a press conference Tuesday, Durant said everything is progressing and he's looking forward to the next few weeks getting better.
The basketball star says he's never had surgery or an injury like this before, and he's only had a few sprained ankles in tthe past.
KD says he hopes to play by December.
In the meantime, Durant has been practicing with the team by shooting baskets from a chair.
Durant says his teammates can build confidence and chemistry while he's out.
The basketball star says his mom has been taking care of him during his recovery and has been with him every moment, and says he has to reassure her that he's alright.
Durant is thankful for the well wishes and support, and he is antsy to get back out on the court.
He said when the game is taken away from you is when you realize how much you appreciate it.
According to a press release, the Thunder, Durant, and his representatives decided to have Dr. Robert Anderson perform the surgery at the Ortho Carolina Foot and Ankle Clinic in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Team officials say Durant will be re-evaluated in six weeks.
The Thunder will play around 16 regular season games over the next six weeks, and will take on the Utah Jazz at the Chesapeake Energy Arena tonight.

February 6, 2011 the Green Bay Packers will compete against the Pittsburgh Steelers in what some think will be the most watched Super Bowl ever. I have to admit I'm pretty excited because since my childhood I've always been a diehard Packer fan. Pregame hype is huge because of a compelling matchup between two legacy teams who will line up against each other for the Lombardi trophy for the first time. Pittsburgh already has the most Super Bowl wins in the National Football League with six. Green Bay won the first two Super bowls and added a third win behind quarterback Brett Favre.
Companies advertising for this monstrous event will pay Fox Sports about 3 million for 30 seconds of airtime which is about $100,000 per second. The 45th Super Bowl could be the biggest advertising event of the year with as many as 110 million viewers expected to watch (that's more than the entire population of Mexico). We will be entertained by companies that want us to buy shoes, candy bars, chips, cars and beer. I can't help but think about how convoluted our values are! It costs anywhere from $1500 to $30,000 (depending on the depth) to dig a well in India or Africa. A well can give clean water to 500 or more people. Just imagine if the average cost of digging a well was $15,750, 190 wells could be drilled and serve over 95,000 people clean water. Who knows how many lives would be spared of death to disease and dehydration just because a well was dug! As much as I like Green Bay, I would much rather see people excited about giving their time and money to helping those who will never see a game on television and wonder how they will survive the week.
Many will wake up on Monday depressed because their team lost while those who backed the winner will be elated. And for all those who are fans there are just as many people or more who don't care and wonder what all the hype was about. Yet, if 22 men and a pigskin can generate that much electricity here's a far more profound thought.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17—For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the archangel's voice, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are still alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we will always be with the Lord.
As much as I like football, I would much rather see people consider what side they will be on when the game of life ends and God pronounces His judgment. The greatest event in history won't be a championship sports match. It will be the return of Jesus in triumph to an earth filled with those who cheer His every move and those who refuse to believe His life even matters. I'd rather be caught up in the air than catch a ball for a touchdown. How about you? Are you ready for the final event and on which sideline will you be found?
The typical individual who allocates some energy to personal spiritual growth spends an average of four hours per week on these endeavors.—George Barna in Growing True Disciple (The Super Bowl lasts about four hours).

With our moral obesity increasing day by day we have to make a conscious effort to stay healthy, fit and ready for every disease as much as possible. Heart diseases are abound with so much fat based foods in our menus for daily life. We are depending on fast foods and oily foods for our daily sustenance. So in order to stay healthy we have to have a diet of low fat and low carb items in our knowledge and incorporate them in our food habits.
That is what we plan to do today with the introduction of one such recipe. Chicken is one type of meat that has the lowest amount of fats. But in order to cook up a low fat chicken dish we have to go one step further. Today we will be discussing a low fat chicken soup recipe. So let's take out our pens and notebooks; get to the kitchen and get with it.
The corn starch has to be dissolved in the fat free milk.
Now you have to Sauté the onions and carrots up to the point that the onions are softened.The duration will be about 7 to 8 minutes.
Now you have to add the mushrooms and mixed herbscontaining thyme, basil, oregano, marjoram, sage, rosemary. Then sauté that for about 5 more minutes.
After stirring in make sure to add the chicken broth.
Bring the chicken broth to a boil while checking.
After it boils reduce the heat and let the broth simmer for another 15 minutes.
At this point add the fat-free half and half.
Afterwards stir in cornstarch and fat free milk mixture.
After that continue to simmer the broth gently for 5 more minutes until thickened.
Add more vegetables like capsicum, tomatoes. These rainbow vegetables not only boost the flavor but also add to the nutritional value as well.
You can use whole grain elements in the soup. Wholegrain substances enhance the soups propensity for carbohydrates and also can boost the thick soupy flavor we all know and love.
Make sure to lessen the fat as much as possible. Browning the chicken decreases the fats at a very high level. Using low fat yoghurt can work miracles as well.
The lean meats add to the flavor and the health portion of the soups very well. So choosing breast pieces would be a better option as it has the lean factor.
You can play around with flavor combinations. Salt and pepper is the basic component of a good soup but a hint of lemon juice can give a tangy flavor to the soup. The mushrooms you use can have variety such as shitake, porcini etc. Also you can add stock cubes without any extra salt.
Add more protein to the soup by using various different components according to taste and balance. Pulses can be added, Beans and grains such as Quinoa rice is also a very good addition. Cracking an egg on top of the soup not only looks good but also adds quite a lot of nutritional value.
Usage of oil must be maintained properly to keep the low Fat integrity.
The nutritional Guidelines here is approximate of the whole soup serving. Results may vary on how you design and devise the recipe.

Q: need generic /home entry for Ubuntu 18.04 /etc/fstab Short version:
in /etc/fstab on an Ubuntu 18.04 system, what are the typical options used when mounting a partition as /home?  Just "defaults 0 2", or something else?

Longer version:
I screwed up my /etc/fstab today, but managed to get it back.  Something I was messing with basically deleted the /home entry in fstab, but I wasn't aware that it had done that, and the system kept working normally.  When I went to reboot the system (for other reasons), the system was hosed and would not even let me log in (not even on the Ctrl+Alt+F3 console).  I eventually zero'd in on the fstab problem, recreated the missing line, and I'm now posting from that system.
But I just put in a generic line, with options="defaults", dump=0 and pass=2.  I suspect that dump and pass are fine as is, but I bet the options should be some besides the defaults. Can someone look at a vanilla 18.04 system and tell me what the options are for the /home mount?  auto_da_alloc?
I did search this forum before posting.  There's a thread from 2011 that says just defaults is fine, but that's 8 years old ...

Even longer version with background on the screwup:
I upgraded to 18.04 week ago.  I kept my /home partition, copied to a new drive, and installed the OS around that.  It had worked great for a week now.
Today I was working on setting up a backup process, and was fiddling around with mounting other drives, including an external drive.  The external drive was an existing HDD that I was putting into a brand new SATA3/USB enclosure, so my first step was to just make sure that the new enclosure worked.
The new enclosure/drive showed up in Ubuntu's Disks utility, and I could see the old partitions.  I mounted one of the partitions to confirm that worked, and ran a df (or something like that) to confirm it.
That's when I noticed that it had mounted the new partition at /home, apparently replacing the regular /home.  Uh oh, the mount operation had followed the label of the partition (and yes I now understand why).  A quick look at /home confirm that it was seeing the data on the old drive there.  Yikes!  I immediately unmounted it, and IT WENT BACK TO THE CORRECT HOME PARTITION.  The correct files showed up at /home again.  Whew, OK, don't do that again!
The system was working normally again, but what I didn't know was that in doing this, the Disks util had messed up the fstab file.  The original /home entry was gone, and now the UUID of the correct partition was associated with another mount point (more detail that I'll skip here).  The next time I rebooted, blammo, no /home.
After an hour of googling and thinking about what I had just been doing before it broke, I figured it out and restored it with a generic line in fstab.
Thanks for reading :)

A: Get UUID of partitions with sudo blkid
For GPT partitioned disks use sudo sgdisk
More information about UUID at Ubuntu Documentation : Using UUID
The 'builtin' /home line in fstab for an ext4 home partition:
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# /home
UUID=<a-string> /home ext4 defaults 0 2

A: OK, it sounds like there are no special settings for the /home mount in 18.04 systems -- just use "defaults 0 2" like I said in my original post.
Thanks cmak.fr and karthik!

The Swiss National Bank Goes "Nuclear"
Currencies / Fiat Currency Sep 07, 2011 - 03:22 PM GMT
By: Justice_Litle
The Swiss National Bank (SNB) rocked the forex market this week with a "nuclear" level currency intervention. The biggest net winner? Probably gold.
It was the press release that shook the forex market to the core.
On Sept. 6, the Swiss National Bank issued the following statement (emphasis mine):
The current massive overvaluation of the Swiss franc poses an acute threat to the Swiss economy and carries the risk of a deflationary development.
The Swiss National Bank (SNB) is therefore aiming for a substantial and sustained weakening of the Swiss franc. With immediate effect, it will no longer tolerate a EUR/CHF exchange rate below the minimum rate of CHF 1.20. The SNB will enforce this minimum rate with the utmost determination and is prepared to buy foreign currency in unlimited quantities.
Even at a rate of CHF 1.20 per euro, the Swiss franc is still high and should continue to weaken over time. If the economic outlook and deflationary risks so require, the SNB will take further measures.
In plain English, the SNB (Swiss National Bank) has committed to a price ceiling for its overstrong currency. Against the euro, the Swiss franc will be allowed a certain level and no higher. One could also consider this a "peg," as the franc is now pegged to a maximum value (in terms of euros).
When the news hit the market, the Swiss franc plunged 8.7%, its largest drop ever against the euro. Traders took the intervention threat seriously: When the SNB says they are "prepared to buy foreign currency in unlimited quantities," that is full-on nuclear talk.
The problem, as we have written about before in these pages, is that an overstrong currency can cripple an economy by making exports uncompetitive.
Because the Swiss franc is seen as a safe haven in times of turmoil (alongside gold and Treasury bonds), investors, traders and savers have rushed to convert their dodgy euros (and dollars) into stable Swiss francs.
This safe haven demand sends the franc even higher, in turn making Swiss products more expensive. Tourism then declines as travelers find Switzerland unaffordable, and Swiss exporters see sales and profits drop.
There is a sense of déjà vu here. The last time the Swiss tried to cap their currency, it was more than three decades ago (against the deutschmark in 1978). The problem back then was the same as today's: Too much safe haven buying creating pain for the Swiss economy.
So what next? "The currency wars are heating up," says Kit Juckes of Societe Generale.
"The SNB has just drawn the ultimate weapon," opines Alexander Koch at UniCredit Group.
The open question is whether the SNB will succeed in keeping down the franc, and how much it will cost them. Currency interventions can be incredibly expensive, and historically they are prone to failure. (Just look at how Japan has struggled with the yen.) It is conceivable the SNB could throw hundreds of billions at the problem, and still fall short.
In further bad news for the Swiss, the odds of a successful intervention depend on coordinated action. If you can get other central banks to go along, your chances of success are better. In this instance, though, the SNB appears to be acting alone.
Last but not least, there is long-run inflation risk in pegging the Swiss franc to the euro. By declaring a price ceiling, the SNB has made sure that, if the euro drops in value, the Swiss franc does too (to keep the ratio intact).
This exposes Switzerland as a country to the threat of rapid currency depreciation and possible surprise inflation. If the euro falls swiftly and sharply -- as it well could in true crisis mode -- the franc goes with it.
Good News for Gold?
As we know, Swiss franc strength has largely been a mirror image of eurozone weakness. Many European savers with bank deposits in euros have been looking to diversify their nest eggs.
The drumbeat of crisis in Europe only intensifies that desire, as Reuters noted yesterday:
The euro zone's debt crisis appeared at risk of spiraling out of control on Tuesday amid doubts about Italy and Greece's willingness to push through austerity demanded by their partners, and hardening opposition to further aid in paymaster Germany.
Safe havens are needed as sorely as ever. Now, though, the SNB has shown the determination to take a popular safe haven away (in the form of deliberate currency debasement).
Perhaps this goes to show that no government -- even a Swiss one -- with access to a printing press can be trusted.
The net winner as a result of all this? Probably gold.
It remains possible that the "nuclear" intervention fails, and the Swiss franc continues to strengthen against the SNB's wishes. Realistically, though, savers have to see that the franc is now at risk. If their fear is a booby-trapped euro, the franc is similarly booby-trapped by design.
With one less place to go -- and the reminder of central bank threats writ large -- the one true "neutral" currency, gold, becomes that much more compelling.

Students are responsible for their own travel to the United States and should make all necessary arrangements before arrival. New international students on non-immigrant visas coming from outside the U.S. who are required to attend International Orientation should arrive on campus on Sunday, August 18, 2019. New students may not move into University housing before their designated arrival date.
When you arrive at your first port of entry in the United States, it is important if you are entering on a non-immigrant visa that you inform the Customs & Border Protection (CBP) officer that you are here for the purpose of studying and show them your student visa even if you have a valid tourist visa or are traveling with a family member with a valid tourist visa. The CBP officer will then place an admission stamp in your passport with "D/S" or duration of stay and "J-1" / "F-1" depending on your visa type.
If you arrive on campus between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., please go to the Tyler Haynes Commons for check-in.
If you arrive on campus after 5:00 p.m., please go to the campus police station in the Special Programs Building, which is open 24 hours, to get your housing materials and orientation packet.
International Student Orientation begins on Sunday, August 18, 2019.
The closest airport is Richmond International Airport (RIC). Students who fly into other airports will need to find transportation to Richmond via train or bus. Follow these directions to campus to get to the University by car, plane, train, bus, and public transportation. International Orientation Advisors will meet and greet incoming international students at the baggage claim area of the Richmond International Airport on Sunday, August 18, 2019 only. Be sure to fill out the arrival form on your New International Student Checklist (NISC) by August 1 so we know when to expect you.
If your flight is delayed, please e-mail konsanit@richmond.edu or dtrinh@richmond.edu or your international orientation advisor to inform us of your updated arrival time. All students will need to take their own transportation to the campus.
If you are taking a taxi to the campus, please have the driver wait for you as you check in. Your room may be some distance from the check-in location, and it will be difficult for you to transport your belongings on your own.
We realize that you may have difficulty booking an international flight that arrives on the stated arrival date. Since it is required that international students required to participate in international orientation check-in on the stated arrival date, you may have to arrive early and spend a few nights in a local hotel.
Not sure about the best way to get to campus? The International Student Peer Mentors may be able to provide some advice about what works best for them.

Store-bought tooth whitening pastes and strips may give your smile a little boost, but teeth whitening done by your dentist can produce some truly amazing results in a very short period of time. Dr. James Watts offers this in-demand cosmetic treatment at his Mystic, CT dentist office. Here are a few things to consider when you're deciding if professional whitening is right for you.
If you've noticed that your teeth have changed in color and it's causing you to hesitate to smile around other people, then professional teeth whitening may be right for you. You should be happy with the way your teeth look and never feel intimidated in social settings. It only takes about an hour to remove years of dental stains and discoloration when you go to the dentist.
If the discoloration and staining of your teeth is extrinsic (the stains are on the outer layer of the tooth) then professional tooth whitening may be right for you. These stains usually form because of the foods you and the beverages you drink. Dental bleaching solutions are most effective at whitening the outer enamel.
If you have tried to whiten your teeth with over the counter products, but your teeth are still dull and yellow, you should talk to your Mystic, CT dentist about professional teeth whitening. Dentists have access to prescription-grade bleaching solutions that are far superior to what you can buy at the store.
Some people have sensitive gums, which can make it more difficult to use teeth whitening products. The best part about seeing a dentist for teeth whitening is that the procedure will be done safely and carefully. So if you have gum sensitivities, leave the whitening process to a professional.
If you want to have a smile that's up to eight shades brighter and will stay beautiful for years, see a dentist for a teeth whitening session. Call (860) 536-6446 today to schedule an appointment with Dr. James Watts at his office in Mystic, CT.


A recent post in SC Magazine mentioned an incident on the University of Missouri-Kansas City where a student was harassing a faculty member with threatening emails. The student plead guilty and is facing jail time.
Thankfully, most states have enacted laws that include harassment through the internet. While this is a source of comfort, it appears however, that cyberstalking is a big problem.
Today's web-tools make it easy to find all sorts of information on people. A simple Google search can reveal a surprising amount of personal information — there are even sites that are specifically geared to gathering personal data and aggregating it all in one place. The scary part is that much of the information is available for free; all you need is an email address to send the report to!
Now, add this to a criminal's ability to hack into personal computer systems and you have a recipe for concentrated attacks on targets using up-to-date personal information.
This is why the Internet of Things (IoT) is just as dangerous as it is wonderful. The connection of devices to the internet can exponentially increase productivity and the flow of information to enable society to do some really great things. But, it also gives criminals a way of cyberstalking their victims — first by harassing them, then planning and committing physical crimes against them.
If you become a victim of cyberstalking, report it to the authorities immediately. You'll never know what the true intent of a cyberstalker is, so don't take chances.
Periodically, do a web search on yourself to see what is available online about you and always be careful about the personal information you post online. People other than who you intend may be reading it.


Maybe Makuta's Mask of Control somehow made him have a bigger and tougher form (Toa + Protector form) than regular Okotans.
But JtO is the highest level of Canon, higher than the animations, way higher than the comics.
Thok's pieces are all a tiny bit darker than true White.
Did a Lewa revamp a while back, although it's more of a mod. I don't have all the pictures ready, but I'll post 'em all later. For now, this is it.
A nice mix of both Generations.
@Xephix I'd say, that originally, he's chest was the same as Ekimu's, after Makuta put on the MoUP, he was grown and got Toa chestplate. Just the J2O didn't show the transformation correctly.
Modded Lewa for JtO, and revamped Pohatu a little.
Use those 3 long axles and a ball joint to attach the arms and remove those glatorian necks on his original arms to make shoulder pads.
Pohatu looks solid. Although now that dark tan sticks out a lot.
Neat idea with the orange parts. I should try that sometime. Good stuff overall!
Why da hell did Makuta be the only Okotan to have a chestplate like that?
...Maybe he wants to look like the stronger brother to the Okotans? If he looks like he works harder than his brother, he might get more favoritism from the people. I find its a subtle way his personality shows.
Maybe Makuta is just ripped.
Or he's trying to over-compensate for his lack of mask-making skills?
That's how you fix Storm Beast. Rebuild him with the same design as the best of all the beasts.

Balakot Air Strike: See Proof Don't Ask for It
by R K Sinha
What proof the Opposition is asking for? That the Indian Air Force air strike on Jaish-e- Mohammad on February 26 did not damage the training centers and hideout of the terrorist. There is a saying in Sanskrit: "Prtayakhsam Kim Pramanam" which translated roughly into English means what is visible does not require any proof. The satellite imagery of the devastation caused to the structure in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir is clear proof of our Air Force fighters hitting the target with 100 per cent precision which is also the official statement of the Indian Air Force. Are our Opposition leaders suspecting the veracity of the statement of IAF?
What the Opposition is questioning is how many or if any terrorist was killed in the operation. Well, one does not have to be an expert to know the fact that when fighter plane hit target the pilots or the camera in the aircraft can only tell if the target was hit or not but it can't say how many people were there inside the structure who might have perished in the strike. This was made clear in no uncertain term by the Air Chief Marshal BS Dhanoa on Monday, March 4 that "We don't count casualties" and earlier by Air Vice Marshal Kapoor who said that "It is premature to say how many terrorists were killed in the operation".
The Opposition leaders are crying hoarse over a number of casualties given by the BJP that approximately 250 terrorists who were present inside the building on February 26 in Balakot were killed in the operation. The figure was based on some intelligent input suggesting that so many terrorists were there at the time of the bombing of the building which was a training center for terrorists.
The sudden spurt of the statement being made by the Opposition leaders is based on reports appearing in the Western media. Leading newspapers like The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Daily Telegraph and The Guardian have reported that though the air strike by the Indian Air Force devastated a few buildings and structures in Balakot there were no casualties. Al Jazeera and BBC sent their reporters to the field to report that there was no evidence of any casualties at the site of the attack and that only an old man was injured in the air strike on February 26 by the Indian Air Force fighter planes.
Let me remind the people that the Western Media carry some degree of bias against India while reporting conflict between India and Pakistan. This was evident even during the Indo-Pak war of 1965 and in 1971. I, as a war correspondent, was reporting the 1971 Indo-Pak war from across the border in the then East Pakistan. Even during 1971 war of liberation of East Pakistan, the Western Media was reporting with a bias against India. I wonder how the Opposition leaders have become so gullible to digest and accept the reports in the Western newspapers. In addition to newspapers reports, there are some organisations in the United States of America and in Australia that are giving images of the place a day before the air strike that is of February 25 and a day after the strike that is February 27 which show partial damage to some structure. In this age of digital technology videos and images can be fudged.
Leave aside the so-called evidence of 'no damage' or 'total damage' to Jaish structures in Balakot. The fact that Pakistan admitted that Indian fighters jets had crossed the Line of Control in Kashmir and that the fighter jets had dropped 'payloads' (bombs) in Balakot itself is the proof of successful operation by India to hit the terrorist hideout in PoK. Had there been no successful attack in Pok by India, the National Assembly of Pakistan would not have witnessed the slogan of "shame shame" by Parliamentarians of Pakistan against Prime Minister Imran Khan for the attack by India. It was after few decades that the Indian Air Force fighter jets had entered air space of Pakistan and hit the target well inside Pakistan Occupied Kashmir.
One more proof that our Opposition leaders refuse to see and accept is retaliation by Pakistan Air Force jets which tried to bomb our military installation in Kashmir by dropping bombs but failed to cause any damage. The intruding Pak fighter jets were chased by the Indian Air Force planes. We were able to shoot down one F-16 fighter jet of Pakistan by Mig 21 Bison which was being flown by Wing Commander Abhinndan Varthaman who returned to India as the brave fighter. I don't want to sound repetitive on our diplomatic victory over Pakistan which released our pilot Abhinandan within 48 hours of the air strike. Yet, the Opposition is making noises over the success of our operation in Pok.
Make no mistake. India is in full preparedness mode to meet any aggression from across the border. India is not an aggressor nation but we reserve our right to defend ourselves. Our Armed forces are prepared and ready to defeat enemy forces now and in the future.

Saving the Spotted-tailed Quoll and protecting native habitats from fragmentation
The ACT Government has released a new plan to help the vulnerable Spotted-tailed Quoll, which has almost disappeared from the Territory. Habitats for native plants and animals will also be better protected following fresh recognition of the negative impacts of habitat fragmentation.
The 2019 Spotted-tailed Quoll Action Plan lays out how we can maintain long-term, suitable habitat conditions to support wild quoll populations in our region.
We want the ACT to be a healthy breeding ground for these quolls so their strongholds in the region are not just limited to Kosciuszko National Park.
The plan aims to protect local habitat, especially around sites that are suitable for dens, and maintain connectivity with surrounding NSW so quolls can move easily to and from cross-border habitat.
The Spotted-tailed Quoll is incredibly rare in the ACT and has been listed as 'Vulnerable' on the Threatened Native Species List since 2003, with an average detection rate of one animal per year since 2005.
Implementation will include surveys and supporting research on the species and its ecology. Canberrans are encouraged to report any sightings of this elusive animal to help these efforts.
Land management activities like baiting for pest predators and prescribed burns will be undertaken in accordance with best practice guidelines to reduce impacts on quolls.
The ACT Government is also formally recognising unnatural fragmentation as a Key Threatening Process following advice from the scientific committee. This will help protect native species like Quolls, Grassland Earless Dragons, Golden Sun Moths and Striped Legless Lizards.
When it comes to patches of habitat, bigger is better. Large connected habitats offer more opportunities for animals to breed, increased biodiversity and improved resilience of flora and fauna.
This new recognition makes habitat fragmentation a planning consideration for future developments.
The Grassland Earless Dragon's habitat is greatly reduced and now spread across isolated grassland patches in the ACT and Queanbeyan. Grassland Earless Dragons are very reluctant to cross small distances of bare ground so if it is lost from one patch, it will not be able to return.
The ACT Conservator of Flora and Fauna Ian Walker will now develop a more detailed action plan to further protect native species from unnatural fragmentation of their habitat.
Quotes attributable to Conservator of Flora and Fauna Ian Walker
"Spotted-tailed Quolls are the largest marsupial carnivore on mainland Australia and play an important ecological role as a high order predator."
"Numbers declined with European settlement. It is believed the introduction of strychnine baiting in the Canberra district in 1861 led to their widespread poisoning."
"Today their greatest threats include destruction of habitat, fire, competition and predation from introduced carnivores—and road mortality."
"Cameras and surveys looking for quoll scat in selected areas of Namadgi National Park in recent years have failed to detect the species, but we hope broader surveys will uncover the species."
Images of Spotted-tailed Quolls and other native species is available in this dropbox.
The quoll action plan is available at: www.yoursay.act.gov.au/spotted-tailed-quoll.

Certified Organic, farm based craft brewery and hop yard located just west of Baddeck.
At Big Spruce Brewing, we brew only unfiltered, unpasteurized, unbelievably good beer. Drop by our on-farm brewery in Nyanza to get yourself a growler of our beer. You can also find us at the Cape Breton Farmers' Market and a Nova Scotian tap near you.
We refuse to filter the goodness out our beer, so each of our batches takes 18 to 30 days to brew, ferment and condition while the cloudiness gently disappears. This is slower than other breweries and it results in a slow produced beer that is wonderfully full of flavour from our fermentation stage. See what's currently available below, or check out all of our beers.

BRANDON-MANDER THE UNION STOOGE: He Marches To The AFL-CIO's Tune In Colorado, Will He In Congress?
To hell with J-O-B-S. Brandon Shaffer has bigger priorities…the A-F-L-C-I-O.
The AFL-CIO is out with their legislative scorecard and our readers won't find it surprising that they trashed conservatives and lauded liberals. The union stooges have a well known history of being the financiers and puppeteers of many a Democrat politician. They spend heavily on behalf of Democrats' campaigns and expect them to march to their tune when voting time comes.
The legislative scorecard makes clear most Democrats ask "how high?" when told to jump by the AFL-CIO. Or in Sal Pace's case, he asks where he can put his fist.
Senate President Brandon-Mander Shaffer was praised as their top lemming, racking up a perfect score of 100 (h/t Lynn Bartels). That is not going to play well in the conservative-leaning 4th Congressional district. As we informed our readers back in March, even in the liberal-leaning Ft. Collins, voters have rejected collective bargaining for public employees three times at the ballot box.
So Shaffer has proven himself to be a labor stooge on the state level. Now that he's running for federal office, shouldn't he be required to at least state his opinion on federal legislation? So far he's avoided taking a position on anything related to Congress, other than the fact that he wants a job there.
With a perfect score from the AFL-CIO in Colorado, surely Shaffer must support the union-backed "card check" legislation. Would it be fair to assume he supports such anti-democratic legislation, unless he says otherwise? Since he's done the bidding every time the AFL-CIO has asked in Colorado, wouldn't it be natural to assume he would do the same in Congress?
Paging the political press corps: What say you Shaffer?

paspastrlaac William Shakespeare was a prolific English playwright and poet, whose work appeared on either side of the cut-off date for the SCA's period.
Relatively little is known about Shakespeare the man, which has fueled suspicion that his works were in fact written by somebody else and that he was merely an actor who served as a pen name. Many have put the case for his works to have been written by Francis Bacon or Christopher Marlowe (who would have had to fake his own death), but none of the collected evidence is even close to convincing.
Shakespeare is of course best known for his plays, many of which were adaptations of older stories, but he appears to have believed he was more likely to be remembered for his sonnet collection. He is also known to have changed the histories in some of his plays (e.g. Macbeth) to suit his patrons.
He is responsible for bringing many cliches into the English language, such as "It is a tradition more honoured in the breach than the observance" and "The better part of valour is discretion". He is credited with introducing some 2000 words such as "leapfrog", "majestic" and "pedant", using methods like anglicizing Latin terms.

Samsung CLP-310N Driver Download. The Samsung CLP-310N printer has a high printing speed. Unfortunately, the device expels increased benzene and CMT emissions, also a high particulate emission was measured. Toner CMT substances were found. Read the whole test. The bad thing: The CLP-310 blew too much benzene in the air. The proportion of CMT substances in the exhaust air was too high. These were to dimethylformamide containing the testers found also in the toner.
In addition, the Samsung had high particulate matter emissions. The bottom line of the Samsung CLP-310N was the slowest printer in the test. But compared to inkjets for home use, he printed still very fast. Texts he brought with deep blacks and clean mark edges to paper. Color and graphics printing reach him properly, though it portrayed somewhat distorted colors.
I Work now for about 2 years with the printer and am rather disappointed in almost every sheet paper capacity (which in the small cassette often happens), I get a paper jam And must take a few sheets (no, I'm not too stupid for it: the cassette is after every reload just half full / yes, I have already tried different paper makers). The Samsung CLP-310N quality is "sufficient" (OK, one can not really compare a laser printer with an ink printer, if it is about photos).
I often get error messages because of "unsuitable toner", although it is the original Samsung. Annoying are also the messages / demolitions because of empty color cartridges, if one prints only the whole day only b / w and these seem to empty even without color prints by themselves. Samsung CLP-310N printer had 1x total failure, support from Samsung has worked well. Conclusion: this was the last device of this company, which I bought myself.

Detective Conan: The Scarlet Bullet releases in PH cinemas in 2020
Here's an anime film to watch out for in 2020!
Back in June, Detective Conan: Fist of the Blue Sapphire was released in select PH cinemas. And next year, the PH is getting another Detective Conan flick! Local film distributor, ODEX Philippines, recently announced that Detective Conan: The Scarlet Bullet will releases in the Philippines sometime in 2020.
While the movie's release has been confirmed, ODEX Philippines has yet to announce a release date for the film. Though we expect the movie to releases in PH cinemas in the 2nd half of 2020 considering the Scarlet Bullet's Japanese premiere is on April 17, 2020.
https://www.facebook.com/ODEXanimePH/videos/2688656237858390/
In case you're unfamiliar, Detective Conan: The Scarlet Bullet is the 24th Detective Conan movie, and the story will take place in Tokyo, specifically during the "World Sports Games" (the Olympics equivalent in the Detective Conan world).
MyAnimeList describes the movie as:
"Once every four years, Tokyo hosts the world's largest sports festival: World Sports Games. During this year's games, a major incident occurred when famous tournament sponsors were kidnapped. FBI agent Shuuichi Akai is joined by his younger brother Shuukichi Haneda, younger sister and self-proclaimed detective Masumi Sera, and their mysterious mother Mary. Alongside the Akai family, Conan attempts to unravel the mystery of the kidnapped sponsors."
Aside from the new Detective Conan movie, ODEX Philippines has also announced that more anime films will be releasing in the PH in 2020.

Ahhhhhh! I'm so glad you're here!
So, your child wants to play college ball? That's soooooo exciting!!!
Obviously, you only get one shot at this with your child. I want to make sure you have the information and resources you need to create as many opportunities as you possibly can.
I have seen kids with 2.2s receive multiple offers and acceptance letters and go on to college. I have heard of kids with even lower GPAs than that move on as well. One rough year, or "struggling in the classroom," doesn't have to completely derail your daughter's future. You might be surprised at just how much is possible if you are determined to find solutions and open to various options.
If your child is in the "not the best GPA in the world" situation right now, there's still hope. Contact me to learn more about this.
Just because DI coaches can't contact you until Sept. 1 junior year doesn't mean that NOTHING happens before then, nor does it mean there's nothing for you to do until then!
Please do not wait until September of junior year to START putting the pieces in place.
There are some critical elements you can take care of during freshman/sophomore year. If you have no idea what you could be doing, shoot me a message. Let's chat.
My daughter is a 4.0 student. She loves this game and wants to play in college. Her coach said he'd help her get recruited, but nothing seems to be happening yet. She's a junior this year. Help!
Your coach IS an important piece of the college recruiting puzzle, but please do not make it his/her sole responsibility to get YOUR child to college. There are things you and your child can do to give yourselves the best chance at generating multiple offers and finding a school that is a solid fit for your child academically, athletically, socially, and financially.
If you need help identifying how to get from where you are now to where you want to be, I can help you with that. Contact me to schedule a free strategy session HERE.
My daughter is a senior, she has big goals, but is open to any opportunity she can get. She's been contacting coaches, but doesn't seem to have any interest. What else can we do to help her?
There are lots of reasons why this could be happening and I can take a look at what's going on in your unique situation and help you figure that out. If you find yourself in this situation, contact me ASAP with your child's GPA, test scores (if you have them), and video. Let's get together and see if we can identify where the breakdown is.


In order to elucidate his logical analysis of modal quantified propositions (e.g. 'all men are necessarily mortal'), the 14th century philosopher John Buridan constructed a modal octagon of oppositions. In the present paper we study this modal octagon from the perspective of contemporary logical geometry. We argue that the modal octagon contains precisely six squares of opposition as subdiagrams, and classify these squares based on their logical properties. On a more abstract level, we show that Buridan's modal octagon precisely captures the interaction between two classical squares of opposition, viz. one for the quantifiers and one for the modalities. Finally, we argue that several aspects of our contemporary formal analyses were already hinted at by Buridan himself.
