New for 2015 the Arc'teryx Velaro 35 is a single main compartment daypack with a single, large, pocket on the front. Weather resistant and durable it's designed for day use but has the capacity to swallow up a full weekend's lightweight kit.
The Berghaus Arete 35 is a real mixed bag, sporting the design of a climbing pack and ice axe loops with a back system more suited for less srenous and extended activities. As a hillwaking or trekking pack it's stylish, affordable and very capable. As a scrambling pack it's got all the features you need but for heavier loads and full-on mountaineering it lacks thea fully specced support system a more dedicated and expensive pack offers. With the build quality and looks of a more technical pack, and even a few of the features, there's a tendancy to over expect from the Arete 35 but bear the price in mind and the limitations that price requires and this is a real value for money pack for UK hillwalkers who like the odd day scrambling or a winter day trip in Scotland.
Mammut's Trion Light 38+ is a dedicated alpine pack designed for climbers, mountaineers and skiers.
Surprisingly spacious for its 26 litre capacity and with a beautifully functional volume adjustment system that helps keep loads stable. The Mountain Hardwear Fluid 26 is one of the most organised daysacks around with its multiple compartments and pockets. With it's great looks, stability and volume adjustment it's already becoming one of our favourites.
You'd think that reviewing a simple daysack would be pretty easy, after all there's not really that much to a sub 30 litre pack that you can vary, but testing the Mountain Hardwear Fluid 26 as the first in our daypack group test changed that perception.
Osprey's legendary multi-discipline Talon 22 has had a bit of a tweal for 2017, building on the reputation of one of the most versatile small capacity packs on the market.
The latest addition to the Osprey's women's specific fit range, the Tempest series is available in capacities from 20 to 40 litre. The range shares all of the same lightweight and high performance features of the ever popular Talon series but with a harness, hip belt and specific torso sizes designed to fit a woman's body.
There has been speculation that we at My Outdoors can be 'elitist' when it comes to our gear reviews. This is not strictly true, the reviews we publish are from a variety of brands that produce gear of very high quality. However, we can only review gear that is made available for us. That said there are a lot of outdoor gear manufacturers producing gear that is affordable and of considerable quality. It is our goal at My Outdoors to bring our readers a sample from all of the brands available to us as outdoors goers.

Adventurer Jason Lewis | About
"Arguably, the most remarkable adventurer in the world today."
Jason Lewis is an award-winning author, explorer, and sustainability advocate. He is recognised by Guinness World Records as the first person to circumnavigate the Earth by human power—without using fossil fuels.[1]
He walked, cycled, and inline skated five continents, and kayaked, swam, rowed, and pedalled a boat across the rivers, seas, and oceans. Taking thirteen years to complete, the 46,505-mile journey was hailed "the last great first for circumnavigation" by the London Sunday Times.
LOW CARBON LIVING
Most of Jason's journey was spent living a carbon neutral lifestyle, and his exposure to remote communities that have managed to live sustainably for generations created a framework of simple everyday skills to bring back to the developed world.
An elected Fellow of London University, the Royal Geographical Society, The Explorers Club, and the Royal Scottish Geographic Society, Jason now writes and presents on low carbon living, including plant-based cooking, rain and greywater harvesting, carbon neutral transport, urban farming, home energy efficiency, appliance and electronic repairs, eco-building, and waste reduction.
Jason has set three additional records: the first crossing of the Atlantic Ocean from mainland Europe to North America by human power (February 1995, Lewis and Smith); first crossing of North America on inline skates (September 1996, Lewis); and first crossing of the Pacific Ocean by pedal power (August 2000, Lewis).
Nominated The Times inGear Man of the Year, the Land Rover Toughest Sportsperson of the Year, and featured as one of Sport Magazine's Athletes of the Year. Jason has appeared on numerous television and talk shows, including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (NBC), CBS This Morning, and Long Way Down with actors Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman.
Visiting more than 900 schools in 37 countries to date, involving thousands of students in a variety of programmes in conjunction with UNESCO's Associated Schools Program Network, Jason uses human-powered journeys to promote world citizenship, zero carbon emission travel, and awareness of individual lifestyle choices on the health of the planet. In addition, tens of thousands of dollars have been raised through his 501(c)(3) non-profit organization for humanitarian causes — orphanages such as The Hope Orphanage in East Timor, and hospices for people living with HIV and AIDS (Rumah Solehah, Kuala Lumpur; Father Joe's Mercy Centre, Bangkok).
A frequent contributor to outdoor magazines (Men's Fitness, Sports Illustrated, Outside Magazine, Geographical) and travel books (Chicken Soup for the Traveler's Soul, HCI, 2002; Flightless, Incredible Journeys Without Leaving the Ground, Lonely Planet, 2008; The Modern Explorers, Thames & Hudson, 2013), Jason is the author of The Expedition trilogy (BillyFish Books, 2012/13/16): Dark Waters*, The Seed Buried Deep**, and To The Brink.
*WINNER of the IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award & Eric Hoffer Award. **ForeWord Reviews' Book of the Year.

I am still a child, actually. I'm only 11 but none of this is what im looking for. i am very sensitive to noises such as jeans and swooshy coats. it does not affect me when i do these things though. something about me is just not right in the head. im weird, im a freak, and I feel like nobody understands me. If you do, please tell me, because im low on options now.
You are not a freak.
I think everyone has issues with their senses and they adapt but certain individuals have a much harder time and it can interfere with daily activities.
My son has autism and noises are a major trigger for him.
Me personally I have an aversion to grass, everything about it. I can't handle even the smell of freshly cut grass it make me nauseous. But I have found ways to avoid it and move on, not always possible for some others to do.
Finding the right person/people to help you will change your life.
Occupational Therapists can work wonders, you could try looking that way maybe.
It does sound like misophonia to me as well. Because of your age however please get every aspect checked out. Some of these issues are much easier to get diagnosed as a child.
Also if it is a disorder that has something else sort of strange that will show up later or effect your health in a major way you will be prepared. Good luck!
This sounds like Misophonia to me. I too have a lot of trouble with certain sounds.
It's not uncommon for everyone of us to have bits and pieces that confuse us but some of us have lots of them- my son does. We have come a long way but I won't say we have decoded the situation. I think it's great that you are trying to understand your situation. I am a psychiatrist. The way I see it, it would be greatly helpful for you to have a chat with an adult that you trust- it may be a school teacher/ social worker, doctor or a family member. Sometimes, local kids helplines, hospitals can also help. Whatever, they help you with, right now it seems like a very frustrating situation you are at. So, I hope you will find the help you seek. For my son, there is no magic answer. It's been strategies based on general advise as well as trial and error. I wish you well and will pray for peace of mind in this journey you are undertaking.
I do the same thing! I can't stand it! I also hand flap all the time! So I have it? I don't know!
I have a very similar problem, being a strong disliking of particular sounds, but only when other people make them. If you happen not to have any other signs of general auditory sensitivity (as another comment suggests, you should go through the checklist with a parent or guardian or healthcare provider to determine this), it seems likely you have misophonia. If so, I wouldn't recommend ASMR as you may find it wildly unpleasant- I certainly do. You definitely aren't alone though, and even if you get clinically diagnosed with a sensory disorder, that doesn't mean you're a freak. Misophonia is still being studied, but there are some therapeutic treatments that should be able to help you.
It sounds like you have SPD, sensory issues. Go to your mom or an adult who you trust. Use the "Symptoms Checklist" to help you understand where your sensitivities lie. Praying for you.

Researchers examine wind speeds over Lake Michigan
Source: Milwaukee Journal • Posted: Tuesday, September 4, 2012
Researchers are testing wind speeds in the middle of Lake Michigan to evaluate whether it could serve as a location for offshore wind power generation.
"We're capturing some of the very first data," said T. Arnold Boezaart, director of the Michigan Alternative & Renewable Energy Center at Grand Valley State University, the group leading the research. "The wind data that we're bringing on shore — when I brought the first data cards on shore, I felt like I was bringing gold bullion."
The $3 million project is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, the state of Michigan, We Energies and the Sierra Club. In the past, research has indicated that there are high wind speeds above the water; however, testing took place at an altitude lower than where power would be generated. Now, researchers are using laser-pulse radar technology to obtain data at heights of 500 feet or more above water.
So far, initial data has been promising. Researchers found in June an average wind speed of 22 mph at 410 feet above the water. Boezaart said that the target for commercially viable wind generation stands at wind speeds over 15 to 20 mph.
The proposed wind farm would not be visible from the shore, unlike the much-discussed Cape Wind project in Massachusetts. Researchers are also investigating whether a potential wind farm would disrupt migratory bird patterns.
In the Midwest, interest in renewable energy has dwindled amid a sluggish economy, abundant access to other power resources and shifts in the political climate (Thomas Content, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Aug. 29). — WW

Americal American Psychological Association Style Sample
The American Psychological Association (APA) style is primarily used in the social
science disciplines. It is formatted like Modern Language Association (MLA), and
shows many similarities, but is unique in several key points. This paper discusses the
APA in detail.
APA uses parenthetical (or in-text) citations within sentences, but rather than
indicating the author's name and page number, APA includes author's name and date
of publication. The page number, represented with a p. or a pp., is only added to the
citation when using a direct quote (not a summary or paraphrase). If the author's
name is mentioned in the sentence, then place the date of publication in parentheses
directly after the name. If the name is not mentioned include the author's name and
date in parentheses at the end of the source material. And, if you use a direct quote,
place the page number after the publication date within the parentheses.
Note the difference between the following three examples:
Terrence (1999) has presented poignant examples from 150 interviews. However, it
has been pointed out that the research was conducted in a selective, highly biased,
way (Strong & Porter, 1998). All of the interviewees have been called "exceptions to
the norm" (Strong & Porter, 1998, p. 5).
Note the first example paraphrases an author that is named in the sentence, the
second example paraphrases authors that are not named in the sentence, and the third
example provides a direct quote (thus the inclusion of the page numbers) but also
does not identify the authors within the sentence. If the authors were identified
within the sentence in the third example, the authors' names would be followed by
the year of publication and only the page numbers would be in the parentheses at the
end of the quote.
Finally, the bibliographic page in APA style differs from MLA, what APA calls
the Reference page. You will notice a few immediate differences from the MLA
Works Cited format. With APA you include the initial of the author's first name
rather than the complete name, the publication date immediately follows the author's
name in parentheses, and titles of articles are not surrounded with quotation marks.
The lists are still alphabetized by author's last name (or title in the absence of an
author) and the first line is flush left while subsequent lines in the same entry are
indented in (approximately 5 spaces or one tab). A good resource to help you with
referencing is Notre Dame's referencing guide at
http://library.nd.edu.au/referencing/apa#s-lg-box-3040351. There is also a summary
downloadable help document available at:
http://library.nd.edu.au/ld.php?content_id=8053459. In APA Style, you include a
reference list rather than a bibliography with your paper (APA, 2017). A reference
list consists of all sources cited in the text of a paper whereas a bibliography may
include resources that were consulted but not cited in the text as well as an annotated
description of each one.
The School of Education, University of Notre Dame Australia, uses the APA 6th
referencing style for all written documents. In addition to in text referencing and the
reference list there are a number of formatting requirements to ensure your essay
complies with APA standards. Get to know the APA 6th.

Selling Your Home? Success is All in The Details.
You want to sell your home. You or your agent comes in… takes some pictures… makes note of the home's features… and then throws it on the multiple listing service. Heck! those photos may even be by a professional photographer showing your beautiful rooms and lush green and flowering exterior. But is that enough to separate you from all the other homes that got tossed on the multiple listing service that day?
You've visited sites like Zillow or Realtor.com… You know how fast you rip through those house photos. What is going to separate you from every other Victorian or Bungalow or Colonial on the market and on those sites?! You (really it is your agent's job) need to find something in your home that stands out.
It is my belief that every single home has something special to photographically showcase. Take a look at this door knob photo. The one with all the very intricate details. This was the inside original knob for the homes main front door. It was tiny! Maybe an inch and a half diameter at most.
When I put this house on the market, the clicks I tracked to this knob photo were unbelievable. Higher than any other!
I preach over and over… "Everything needs to be perfect and completely ready for the moment the listing enters the multiple listing service. The MLS is the catalyst that starts the show… creates the hype… showcases your home's personality… and ultimately brings the buyer or maybe… buyers.
I like to use door knobs and simple hardware when I list a property. Knobs are easy to shoot as they are at an easy tripod level. And I am not sure why but even in the most simple plain homes I have found beautiful intricate door knobs. I think that if a home has been altered over the years the door hardware is something that hardly ever gets replaced.
This wooden door knob found on the 2nd floor of an Oak Park grand Victorian. Builders often spent the money on precious metals like bronze and brass for the 1st floor where the guests would enter.
Look at the door knob plate behind the wood knob. This is some form of "pot metal" which was just a mixture of whatever metals the metal-smith or caster had available.
It isn't just door knobs that can be showcased. Get up close and personal with other details in the house. Below is a tile surround on a Victorian fireplace. I rarely see these but when I do they are front and center in the home's marketing. The photo shot needs to be up close and dramatic. Remember, try to be different and catch the eye of the buyer on the internet. "Click" optimization!!
This art-glass window in a South Oak Park home on Kenilworth shows great. Art-glass windows can be difficult to shoot for even the most experienced enthusiast photographers. The bright outdoor sunlight behind the glass and a dark interior will require some post processing.
Some homes are so full of details to shoot you don't even know where to begin. This was the case for one of my favorite sales… 239 S. Grove, Oak Park. This Farmhouse Victorian was certainly not original on the outside with it's years of stucco over the original clapboard, but the inside had so much amazing woodwork and added detail.
Even little stuff like this bronze sun face on the stair's newel post.
Remember, there is more to showcasing a home in this digital age than just a bunch of room photos. Get creative! There are details in your home you take for granted everyday. Details that some buyer is going to absolutely love. Stop. Look.
Try to view these details as a more macro photograph on a website that is showcasing your home. Now experiment with the photography and post processing. Go get the attention of those buyers!

John McAfee's Ghost Coin Accepted in Hong Kong Vending Machines
Ghost Coin, the privacy-centered crypto by popular crypto enthusiast and anti-virus developer John McAfee, has started to be accepted as a method of payment at vending machines in Hong Kong.
A recent announcement on the project's official Twitter account claims Ghost has teamed up with crypto payment platform ivendPay to make the crypto compatible with over 60 vending machines in Hong Kong.
Some of these machines are located in Disneyland Hong Kong.
According to Ghost:
"When we 1st launched $GHOST our vision was not only to focus on #Privacy but also on real user adoption."
Both the crypto and McAfee's distributed exchange, which has replaced McAfeeDEX, were launched last week.
The launch of the platform has been surrounded by great controversy, as McAfee itself has admitted that some parts of the project's white paper have been copied from the white paper of the crypto exchange PIVX.

Rep. Jeff Van Drew, a Democrat Against Impeachment, Expected to Switch Parties
Rep. Jeff Van Drew speaks to reporters on November 28, 2018 in Washington, D.C.
Rep. Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey, a Democratic lawmaker who has been strongly opposed to impeaching President Donald Trump, is expected to switch parties and become a Republican in the near future. Although Van Drew was already in the process of deciding on the switch it seems like a Friday meeting with President Donald Trump helped to seal the deal. His congressional and campaign staff have been informed that Van Drew is planning to make the switch and "the question was now when, not if" he would join the Republican Party, reports Politico.
Van Drew's could make the announcement as soon as next week although it remains unclear whether it would be before or after the House votes on articles of impeachment, which is expected on Wednesday. The New Jersey lawmaker has been eager to get Trump's blessing for the move in an effort to prevent a primary challenge next year. If Van Drew were to stay a Democrat, polling suggests he would have a hard time getting reelected. The move would also provide clear benefits for the president as a party defection would allow Trump to argue impeachment is so controversial that Democrats are leaving their party in protest.
...and here's that poll of Dem primary voters in Van Drew district from earlier this month > pic.twitter.com/GiVvVUDPBa
— Jonathan Martin (@jmartNYT) December 14, 2019
Although extreme, Van Drew's situation exemplifies the difficult situation that some Democratic lawmakers from conservative districts are facing these days as the impeachment vote nears. The White House and Republicans as a whole are directly targeting these Democrats in an effort to get as many as possible to vote against impeachment. President Donald Trump quoted pundit Jason Meister in a tweet Saturday morning, pointing out that "there are 31 House Democrats in Trump won Congressional Districts." Donald Trump Jr. took it further and tweeted the office phone numbers and Twitter handles of the 31 Democrats. President Trump retweeted his son's message. Democratic leaders say they expect "at most six to 10 defectors," reports the Washington Post.
Enough! These Democrats in Trump districts said they were with @realDonaldTrump. They lied! - Now now its time to hear from OUR MOVEMENT. Here's a complete thread of their handles & phone #s. Call non-stop, tweet at them, tell them this will NOT STAND & you'll remember in Nov! RT
— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) December 14, 2019
Van Drew, who won a previously Republican seat in 2018, has been highly critical of the impeachment process, saying it has become too partisan. "It was supposed to be bipartisan, it was supposed to be incontrovertible. It was supposed to be something that was always on the rarest of circumstances," Van Drew told reporters about impeachment earlier this week.
"Well it's not bipartisan." He also claimed several of his Democratic colleagues have reached out to him to try to figure out what to do and he said as many as three or four could join him in voting against impeachment.

Make Easy Healthy Banana Ice Cream without an ice cream maker! Simply blitz frozen bananas in a food processor until you have a creamy healthy ice cream. There's no need for an ice cream machine for this recipe.
I know what you're thinking. Healthy ice cream? Ice cream for breakfast? What is this lady talking about?
Well, before I go any further, I should clarify that this isn't an ice cream in the traditional sense since it's not made from dairy or any similar substitutes. It's literally just blitzed banana that turns incredibly creamy and wholesome.
Although the recipe might be better described as simply frozen banana cream, it takes on a lot of properties of a homemade banana ice cream. The texture is thick and creamy, obviously cold, and the most important part, delicious.
There's really no reason not to enjoy this recipe as a healthy alternative for ice cream whether it's for breakfast, a snack or after-dinner dessert.
To make this "quick banana ice cream", you simply need to blitz frozen bananas in a food processor.
The banana chunks will first wildly fly around. But stay with it as they will soon calm down and the bananas will take on a powder consistency.
Keep blitzing, only stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary. Then right before your eyes, the bananas will suddenly take on a creamy texture.
Serve this banana ice cream immediately after making for best results. It loses its consistency if you freeze it, which makes it awfully hard to scoop later.
However, you can add a touch of alcohol or condensed milk to make it easier to scoop if you really need to pop it in the freezer after making it.
But since this homemade ice cream takes less than 5 minutes with the help of a food processor, I'd absolutely recommend serving it immediately after blitzing the bananas.
I topped this banana ice cream with almonds and a touch of whipped cream. It's also a real treat to add chopped strawberries on it, or a handful of mini chocolate chips.
Sometimes, I like to think of it as a banana yogurt parfait and any toppings one would use for yogurt is applicable here: granola dust, berries, honey, etc.
But since you have the food processor out already, you can easily chop up some almonds to use as a topping. To save on washing up, chop the nuts first, then blitz the banana ice cream.
As you would expect, ripe bananas will be sweeter than non ripe bananas, but please don't use a banana that's overly ripe (save that for this banana bread!), unless you want to risk getting a slight alcoholic taste to this otherwise pleasant and creamy ice cream.
Everyone loves something tasty. I'm happy to point out that for this recipe, this includes our raw vegan friends! Since there is no actual cooking involved, this Easy Healthy Banana Ice Cream recipe is considered raw vegan ice cream.
And don't forget the little ones who love ice cream!
Whether it's for yourself, your family, or your guests, make this Easy Healthy Banana Ice Cream for both weekday breakfasts and weekend brunches.
I know it'll be hard, but don't eat it too fast or else you'll all end up with a brain freeze.
Make Easy Healthy Banana Ice Cream without an ice cream maker! Simply blitz frozen bananas in a food processor until you have a creamy healthy ice cream. There's no need for an ice cream machine for this recipe.
Place the bananas in a food processor. Blitz the bananas until they become creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as necessary.
Serve immediately, topped with chopped nuts, fruits and whipped cream, as desired.
I keep a bag of frozen sliced bananas in the freezer, so we can make this Easy Healthy Banana Ice Cream anytime the craving hits - and that's often!
My kids love banana ice cream. I love that it's so healthy and easy to make!

Change Management: Negotiating Organizational Change in the 21st Century
Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School
Cambridge July 16, 2020 1 day
Change is vital to organizational growth, health, and survival. It is also incredibly difficult to execute well-often resulting in diminished morale and feelings of anxiety and mistrust. In fact, researchers estimate that less than half of major corporate change projects at Fortune 1000 firms have been successful.
All change requires negotiation; successful change requires effective negotiation. Yet most change management models fail to incorporate key negotiation principles, resulting in lost opportunities and dissatisfied stakeholders. And most negotiations fail to incorporate key change management principles, resulting in incomplete preparation and inadequate implementation.
Negotiated change-the focus of this seminar-is a fluid process that includes situations in which you have many stakeholders, many interests that are "at stake," and some parties who have little or no desire to change. In today's digital era, the challenges are intensified due to an accelerating pace of change and deepening societal divides.
Corporate Mergers & Acquisitions
University of Pretoria, Gordon Institute of Business Science
Sandton July 15-16, 2020 2 days
Corporate mergers and acquisitions play a significant role in many companies' value and growth strategies. If designed and executed successfully, these strategies will help your company gain and sustain a competitive advantage.
But not all M&As succeed. The reasons for failure in M&A are many, but can be synthesised into two key factors. Firstly, over-optimism in valuing the target company, in particular being overly optimistic about the synergies to be achieved post-acquisition. The second reason relates to the human element. We like to think we are rational beings but we all tend to behave irrationally at times. We believe we can accurately predict the future and repeat previous success ad infinitum. As a result, we seek evidence to confirm our beliefs and views instead of searching for evidence to contradict ourselves, and we don't pay sufficient attention to people issues arising from the deal.

Q: NetSuite Advanced PDF Dynamically Created in Script - Cannot Set  tag I am dynamically creating an Advanced PDF in script. I've created an XML string that I am then passing to NetSuite's XML to PDF API; nlapiXMLToPDF(xmlString).
I've added saved searches, tables, styling, and the xml string is parsing correctly.
I cannot add a logo in an  tag as I'm not sure how to drill into the file cabinet and store the 'src' of the image.
Has anyone had experience dynamically creating Advanced PDFs in NetSuite and pulling in the logo in a script?

A: Are you trying to include an image from the file cabinet? If you have the internal ID of the file in the variable  fileID, then you can use the following code:
var imageURL = nlapiLoadFile(fileID).getURL();
imageURL = nlapiEscapeXML(imageURL);
var xmlString = ... + '

' + ...;
var myPDF = nlapiXMLToPDF(xmlString);

If you want to use the Form Logo set on the Company Information page, then you can populate fileID using the following code:
var companyInfo = nlapiLoadConfiguration('companyinformation');
var fileID = companyInfo.getFieldValue('formlogo');

Then use the first code block to include the logo in xmlString.

Q: Windows 8 permissions I am having this really weird problem with Windows 8 where it won't let me edit or save to my program files folder in my C: drive. It keeps telling me access is denied, even when I have taken ownership of the folder and am logged in as an administrator. I can save to my other drives just fine.
The new menu item is even missing the regular items and only allows me to create a folder.

Can someone please help me out? This is really frustrating.
Here is what the file looks like after I edited the permissions:

I gave myself full control yet I can't edit or create files in the directory.

A: Being the owner does not automatically grant you the right to modify a file or directory.  There's an ACL (access control list) that's preventing you from doing what you want.  You can display or edit the ACL using the cacls command.  For example, here's the ACL on my own Program Files directory:
12 C% cacls '\Program Files'
C:\Program Files NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller:F
                 NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller:(CI)(IO)F
                 NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:C
                 NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)(IO)F
                 BUILTIN\Administrators:C
                 BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)(IO)F
                 BUILTIN\Users:R
                 BUILTIN\Users:(OI)(CI)(IO)(special access:)
                                           GENERIC_READ
                                           GENERIC_EXECUTE

                 CREATOR OWNER:(OI)(CI)(IO)F

Unless you have a really good reason you haven't mentioned, you probably don't want to change the ACL on this directory.  But if you really, really do, here's how you'd give yourself full control:
cacls '\Program Files' /E /G userid:F

Added:
That cacls command modifies the ACL on just that directory, not the contents.  If you'd like to edit a config file somewhere in your Program Files directory tree, you'll need to use the cacls command on that file itself.  For example:
cacls '\Program Files\FooBarGame\ConfigDirectory\ConfigFile' /E /G userid:F

A: All you have to do is make sure you open up notepad as administrator Start Menu > Right Click  "notepad" app> choose "Run as administrator" on the task bar.  Then edit and save you config file. I do it all the time with FSX.

Der Parti ouvrier français (POF, ) war eine von 1880 bis 1902 existierende Partei in Frankreich.

1880 als Parti ouvrier (PO, ) gegründet nahm sie 1893 ihren bis 1902 gültigen Namen an.

Geschichte
Die POF wurde 1880 von Jules Guesde und Paul Lafargue, dem Schwiegersohn von Karl Marx, unter dem Namen  gegründet. Sie war eine Abspaltung der ein Jahr zuvor ins Leben gerufenen Fédération des travailleurs socialistes de France (FTSF, ), deren Kurs Guesde und Lafargue für zu reformistisch hielten. Sie vertraten demgegenüber einen revolutionären Marxismus.

1893 benannte sich die Partei in Parti ouvrier français um.

1902 fusionierte der POF mit dem blanquistischen Parti socialiste révolutionnaire (PSR, ) zur Parti socialiste de France (PSdF, ).

1905 vereinigte sich die PSdF auf Druck der Zweiten Internationale mit dem reformistischen Parti socialiste français (PSF, ) zur Section française de l'Internationale ouvrière (SFIO, ).

Ihre Hochburgen hatte die Partei in den Départements Nord, Pas-de-Calais und Allier.

Bekannte Mitglieder
Neben Jules Guesde und Paul Lafargue waren Marcel Cachin, Georges Vacher de Lapouge und Hubert Lagardelle bekannte Mitglieder des POF.

European Parliament approves European crowdfunding framework on 5 October
The new rules create a single set of rules on crowdfunding services for the EU. This should help crowdfunding services to function smoothly in the internal market and foster cross-border business funding.
The uniform set of criteria will apply to all European Crowdfunding Service Providers (ECSP) up to offers of EUR 5 000 000 (from EUR 1 000 000 proposed by the Commission), calculated over a period of 12 months per project owner.
Investors would be provided a key investment information sheet (KIIS) drawn up by the project owner for each crowdfunding offer or at platform level. Crowdfunding service providers would need to give clients clear information about the financial risks and charges they may incur, including insolvency risks and project selection criteria.
A prospective ECSP would need to request authorisation from the national competent authority (NCA) of the member state in which they are established. On its 5 October vote, the Parliament raised no objections to the Council's position, meaning that the proposal can become EU law.

Council reflects how to make Commission's SME test more effective
The Council's three consecutive Presidency holders (Germany, Portugal and Slovenia) have issued a joint document reflecting on how the European Commission's SME test could be improved. With the SME test, the Commission analyses the possible effects of EU legislative proposals on SMEs.
The Council trio have identified the following areas for possible improvements:
The application of the SME test should be based on joint pre-screening of upcoming proposals by the Commission together with SME associations
The SME test could be improved by strengthening the consultation process, increasing the quantification of impacts and by taking different SME classes (micro, small, medium) better into account
Stricter oversight by the Regulatory Scrutiny Board should be ensured

A guy who doesn't know shit from Shinola talks to another guy who has both shit for brains & an agenda to craft an expert opinion about . . . me.
A photographic scorecard for this story:
This is Shinola.
This is Tim Steller of the Arizona Daily Star. (Tiny head evidently actual size.)
This is a self-posted Facebook image of ADL attack blimp Mark Pitcavage. He used to troll for names on the Internet to provide the FBI back in 90s.
This is Sparky, the Militia Watchdog, from back during the Clintonista Regime. Last seen almost a decade ago, rumor has it that Pitcavage sat on him and didn't notice for a week. Poor Sparky. He even looks sad, do you notice? Almost as if he knew his fate.
I assume y'all know what shit looks like, gentle readers, so I'll skip that illustration.
The headline: "The blogger who broke Fast and Furious prepares for US revolution."
The story, with my comments ad seriatim:
The Republic published a long, interesting story Sunday on Operation Fast and Furious, and it included interviews with Mike Vanderboegh and David Codrea. These are the two pro-gun-rights bloggers who first opened the window on the disgraced ATF investigation in late December 2010.
As often happens when you break a story, the scoops have kept coming, and Vanderboegh in particular has become a go-to source for information on the Fast and Furious scandal. What newcomers to his Sipsey Street Irregulars blog may find surprising is the broader theme of the blog, which perhaps can be summarized as: The out-of-control federal government is poised to start a new American revolution among gun owners.
"A new American revolution"? Not my words. Long-time readers will recognize that the only "revolution" that I believe has been going on here is that of a Gramscian nature waged by domestic enemies of the Founders' Republic against that system of government and the rule of law. We are fighting for a restoration of that republic against the revolutionaries of collectivism. Had the sentence stated "civil war with the American armed citizenry" then it would have been accurate.
While Vanderboegh has done a good job exposing Fast and Furious in the last year, he remains what he was before: A man so convinced that the federal government has turned totalitarian that he has declared himself willing, even occasionally seeming eager, to engage in war against it. As with many gun-rights activists, he foresees the moment of truth as when the feds come to take Americans' guns — that's when the shooting war would begin.
"Eager"? Is there anyone here who has read my stuff who believes that I am "eager" for civil war? Or that I have ever seemed "eager"? What a lying sack of shit.
I've emailed Vanderboegh some questions about his views outside of the Fast and Furious case and am awaiting a response. I'll update when I get it.
I get a crapton of email a day, and I didn't recall this one, so I just went back and looked over my new and old email files and on a quick scan I can't find any such email. I delete far more emails than I read, but it would be very unlikely for me to delete one of Steller's unread, for I know who he is. With that caveat, I'm not willing to call him a liar on that. Perhaps he should re-send it. Or, he could have done due diligence and cast around to find other reporters for my phone number. He must not have been that curious about my responses to his questions. It is easier to write a story with its meme unchallenged.
Vanderboegh may have first come to the attention of Southern Arizona residents last year during the debate over health-care reform. On March 19, 2010 he posted this blog item, encouraging "all modern Sons of Liberty" to break windows at Democratic Party offices around the country. Two days later, the glass door at U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords' Tucson office was smashed. It was one of about a half-dozen such incidents in the days after his call.
Vanderboegh was involved in the militia movement of the 1990s and appears to blame the U.S. government for the excesses that came out of that movement. Not only was the Waco disaster the government's fault, according to Vanderboegh, but the Oklahoma City bombing was as well. He calls it "The greatest crime ever perpetrated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation."
Actually, I was referring to PATCON, of which the OKC bombing was only a part, and no, I don't believe that the FBI blew up the building or even wanted the building to blow up. I think that it, unlike the Gunwalker Scandal, OKC and the Aryan Republican Army actually was a "sting gone bad." J.D. Cash believed that, and so do I. The language here is curious: "Vanderboegh was involved in the militia movement of the 1990s and appears to blame the U.S. government for the excesses that came out of that movement." He then refers to Waco and OKC. Uh, ascribing blame for Waco as "an excess that came out of the militia movement" when Waco actually pre-dated the constitutional militia movement and was the direct cause of its organizing is a bit bizarre to say the least. And as for the OKC bombing as a representation of "militia excesses" when McVeigh, to my knowledge, was thrown out of the only Michigan Militia meeting he ever attended, is part-and-parcel of what Professor Robert Churchill called "The Narrative of 1995." Perhaps Steller should read Churchill's book.
This was Vanderboegh's first claim to fame, says Mark Pitcavage of the Anti-Defamation League, who has been aware of Vanderboegh for 15 years.
"He became a big early proponent — and this is where he got his notoriety in the 1990s — of Oklahoma City conspiracy theories. 'Timothy McVeigh was a patsy. The government was actually involved.' He did a lot to popularize this," Pitcavage said.
Ah yes, Pitcavage. Mark Pitcavage used to troll the Internet and sell names of "militia threats," including mine, to the FBI. He ran a site called "The Militia Watchdog" and Sparky (as seen above) was his logo. We crossed swords many times, Spitcabbage and me. His FBI "confidential informant" file would make interesting reading. He parlayed this into a job with ADL as their "militia expert."
Here's an old militia joke from the 90s:
What is the difference, if any, between Mark Pitcavage and the Hindenburg?
This is Mark Pitcavage in his natural element.
This is the Hindenburg.
Answer: There are two. First, although both are gasbags and serve the commercial interests of a nascent collectivist tyranny, the Hindenburg was a dirigible whereas Pitcavage is a blimp. Second, Pitcavage has not yet spontaneously burst into flames.
Hope springs eternal.
Pitcavage's next description of me is hardly accurate, but it is all we who have followed his lying career over the years have come to expect from Sparky's erstwhile master.
"In the late 90s and early 2000s, the militia movement went into a tailspin. It was at that point that Mike jumped ship. In the mid-2000s, he became involved in the Minutemen."
The truth is the constitutional militia movement, as opposed to the "millennials" (again, see Churchill's "To Shake Their Guns in the Tyrant's Face"), didn't suffer any "tailspin," and I only stepped down as commander of 1ACR when it was obvious that I was too old, fat and infirm to lead troops. 1ACR, in its component parts under subordinate leaders, still exists, and as for "jumping ship," Pitcavage knows that that is a damn lie. Throughout the early 2000s I contributed in a hundred ways to the constitutional militia movement overall, picking up the description from a "main-stream" reporter as "The Grey Eminence" of the movement. When my old friend Bob Wright got involved in the Minutemen in 2005, I took elements of 1ACR and went out to help him in October of that year. I saw this, then and now, as simply an extension of the militia citizenship ideal.
"He rode that pony for a while. More recently, he dropped that and started his Sipsey Street Irregulars blog. He started the Three Percenter concept, which has caught on among anti-government extremists."
Pitcavage, whose personal relationship with ponies involves frightening them to death whenever he nears with the prospect that he might actually try to ride them, implies some sort serial inconstancy on my part as if it is notoriety I am seeking through a variety of failed enterprises. Nothing that I have done since 1993 is inconsistent with my own belief in the efficacy of the armed citizenry to deter tyranny and work toward that end -- with pen, or rifle, or, in the case of the Minuteman vigil in 2005, with seismic intrusion detector and night vision device.
Pitcavage also tips his hand with that old Brown Scare bromide "anti-government extremists." The advocates and lickspittles of the Federal Leviathan (of which class Pitcavage is surely one) always classify their opponents as "anti-government." I know of no one, save unthinking self-proclaimed anarchists (and there are thinking anarchists who are Threepers), who is actually "anti-government." Now I am anti-BIG government, anti-DANGEROUS government and anti-TYRANNICAL government. It is no accident that collectivist pukes like Pitcavage and Morris Dees seek legitimacy for their own vision of government and heap scorn on their opponents who do not share it through misuse of language. That is the oldest collectivist trick in the book. (Reference: "Arbeit Macht Frei.")
The Three Percenter idea derives from the fact (as Vanderboegh explains it) that at the time of the American Revolution, only three percent of the population fought against the king. Vanderboegh explains the present-day Three Percenters this way:
"We are committed to the restoration of the Founders' Republic, and are willing to fight, die and, if forced by any would-be oppressor, to kill in the defense of ourselves and the Constitution that we all took an oath to uphold against enemies foreign and domestic."
Most recently, Vanderboegh was in the news when four Georgia men were arrested and accused of plotting terrorist attacks against the federal government. A book Vanderboegh has written, titled Absolved, inspired the men, though Vanderboegh said he has never communicated with them. The U.S. News and World Report had this interesting story on the case.
Why does all this background on Vanderboegh matter? Well, I enjoy reading his blog, and have found in my couple of months following the Fast and Furious story that he has often been first in putting out details of the scandal. (He also had an impressive scoop last week when he published what he said were portions of an original draft of a Newsweek story about a man who for years worked as an FBI informant among white supremacists.)
"What he said were. . ." Don't you just love the weasel words? Actually, I have been waiting for Newsweek to deny my article so I can print emails with their addresses on them in refutation. This squirrel of a "reporter," who lives in Arizona at Gunwalker Ground Zero, can't find a nut of his own in a forest of oak trees and then casts doubt on MY journalistic skills? Hey, you can doubt my ancestry, Steller, but don't doubt my footnotes.
But I read the blog just for new facts on Fast and Furious and as a measure of what is interesting gun-rights fundamentalists. I often find Vanderboegh's interpretation of the facts to stretch the limits of credibility and to derive from his view of himself as a rebel leader in the run-up to the next American revolution.
Sorry, I've run out of enough spittle to dignify that last bullshit with the contempt that it deserves.
But, hey, Steller, if you actually want to communicate with someone you write about like any other reporter, why don't you give it a try? I ain't going anywhere. And my exclusives will keep on coming, whether you like the source they came from or not.

I like the admission that this so super duper edumacated and omniscient "authorized" individual has only been following the GunWalker Scandal for a couple of months.
Yes, some of them abuse the English language trying to remove themselves from the realm of reality based actuality and yes they often succeed, but truth still fins a way to seep out like water within the collectivist fist.....the harder it is squeezed trying to keep it locked within, the more it finds a way out.
In trying to shoot the messenger, the piece ripped apart here pulls a plaxico (IE, its author shoots themselves) multiple times. In trying to destroy credibility, they actually support it (Mike was right, got the scoop in the first place and has continued to bring quality info to the table).
The tyrants, and those who support them so blindly, are very nervous. The walls are closing in.....the roof is coming down on their heads, and they know it.
even as a thinking anarchist i am insulted by the term "anti-government."
it is simply that we believe the market provides perfect governance because it allocates wealth only to those who earn it by serving their fellow man. thus a person's character, god willing, is the greatest determinant of his success, and his means increase consummate with his ability to self-govern in every daily exchange.
but you can't have that kind of conversation with a person like tim because of who keeps him: he is allocated paper that he uses, with legal consent, to steal from the productive element of society, in exchange for mouthing the agenda of his master. this political form of organization is nothing less than the extension of force/fraud into the greater society.
it does not come from government, it comes from men who call themselves government, seat themselves at a throne shaped like a pentagram.
i know i differ vastly from conservatives on that but, respectably, it is plain as day to me.

Took me all of 3 minutes to find your phone number online.
Wonder why this "authorized propagandist" couldn't do the same?
LOL back in the "day" I used to use Pitcavage's site as a place to find militia links...
I think he was in Columbus then, but could be mistaken.
Pat H. said...
I had words directly with Pitcavage well over a decade ago, he was an arsewipe then as now.
Funded by the FBI for years, don't know about now, but I expect the current junta is doing so. He was ensconsed at one of the Ohio universities, I forget which one. Kind of like the Brady Campaign when it was receiving free office space at the University of California School of Medicine in San Francisco years back, until they were exposed as being a prohibited entity.
Pitcavage is the worst sort of human scum, the kind of pissy, androgenous, pudge that frequently took on the hall monitor duties to mess with people, and just as frequently got their heads stuffed into public toilets.

And I'm sure he operates and writes with no bias what-so-ever...right? I'm sure he's just the poster child of fair unbiased reporting, in fact I bet he moonlights at fox news as their fairness auditor.
The Tucson newspaper and the term newspaper instead of a rumor rag which it is are a very liberal paper.
The Tucson area is the area that wants to succeed from the state of Arizona because the are so liberal in that area. So thier rag sheet would have the same lying bent.
Hmmm....never heard of Spincter Pitcleavage until now. Guess that photo of his was taken in his mama's basement?
He's just another douche in a long line of disposable....well...sorry...I just can't bring myself to sully such a great product on behalf of such a felcher.
It's just the Marxists doing what they do best, lying from sun up to sun down to create advantage which they can then exploit to seize power.
By any means necessary, I believe they said. You can believe they meant that, and weren't lying about it when they did.
I have this sense that "you can doubt my ancestry, Steller, but don't doubt my footnotes" will live on with a life of its' own.
Beautiful and classic.
I wonder how you can be "anti-government" when you believe, as President Lincoln stated in his Gettysburg address, in "government of the people, by the people, for the people"? Likewise, the primary responsibility for security of this nation from its' inception is an armed citizenry - the militia. What some have a problem with are those who insist that our government be run under the principles embodied in the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. Because you disagree with some who think they have a "better" idea of how government should function does not make you "anti-government".
Either play by the rules or get the rules rewritten, but stop complaining about those who still are playing by the rules.

The only conclusion I can reach from the articles like the one written by Stellar, by Verini "gun lobby gave [Melson] little choice but to try"; Serrano "botched ATF sting"; Horowitz "sting gone awry"; and the rest of the would-be MSM journalists is that the Holder gang is worried and will try until the last gasp to get the spin out there that this was just a miserable mistake by a few misguided souls. We know, thanks to Mike and Dave, that this is a scandal that contains more than 3 dozen DOJ/ATF/FBI/WH names who should be indicted for one or more felonies, including involuntary manslaughter, conspiracy and misprision of a felony. Holder's obnoxious nonchalant attitude about criminal activity is cause for his removal if he didn't know anything about it. I wonder if it is possible Grindler met with Obama without Holder - I doubt it.
Mike, I believe I can sum up your refutation of his article best with a joke:
What did the five fingers say to the face?
SLAP!
Good job, and keep 'em coming!
Jeez, that tub of excrement hasn't taken his rightful place as Satan's prison bitch yet? The FBI must have some terrific turd preservation technology available.
On a more somber note, Douchebaggage's re-emergence is an uncharacteristically open move by his handlers that they're going to be playing a "militia card" sooner rather than later. Looks like Sparky will be excavated and stuck on a stick to work that old Fibbie PATCON black magic once again.
Trust no strangers and know what's going on in the lives of those you really trust. And tell your Gramps that OPSEC is more important than any "blood soaked" online chapters of a book.
Saw the pic of SpitCabbage and I just CAN'T believe that that walking tub of lard is a "militia expert".
Look at his physical condition.
He couldn't take three steps without being exhausted, winded, and collapsing.
He couldn't take ONE step without shaking the ground and alerting everyone (friend and foe) as to where he is.
He couldn't lift a rifle to fire it without it getting lost in the blubber of his jowls and shoulder.
To make a uniform for him, you'd have to use the canvas from an entire GP Large tent.
(I could keep going, this is too much fun).
Why did I make such fun of (and, at the same time, heap such scorn on) Mr Pitcavage?
To get me in practice.
Humor, ridicule, satire and scorn are some of a conservative's greatest weapons, a tyrant's greatest fear. Libturds (there I go again) and their fellow travelers (Barny Fwank) are so impotent otherwise in normal real life, that they have the greatest need to be taken seriously at all times. No humor for them (unless they're pulling the wings off flies, torturing animals or otherwise molesting and harming innocent people).
This is why I look forward to anything written by Ann Coulter. She's my heroine. The louder the Libturds scream, I know the closer she is on target & putting a great big pin thru their toy balloon.

Q: Year over Year difference and selecting maximum row in pandas I have a dataframe given as below:
ID YEAR     NPS
500 2020     0
500 2021     0
500 2022     0
501 2020    32
501 2021    52
501 2022    99
503 2021    1
503 2022    4
504 2020    45
504 2021    55
504 2022    50

I have to calculate year over year difference as given below:
ID      YEAR    NPS  nps_gain_yoy
500     2020     0      0
500     2021     0      0
500     2022     0      0
501     2020    32      0
501     2021    52      20
501     2022    99      47
503     2021    1       0
503     2022    4       3
504     2020    45      0
504     2021    55      10
504     2022    50      -5

In above output for starting year 2020 or first occurance of Id nps_gain_yoy needs to be zero then for 2021 nps_gain_yoy is difference between nps of 2021 and 2020 i.e 52-32 = 20 as shown in output for ID 501 for year 2021 and so on.
After this I need to pick the maximum difference or maximum nps_gain_yoy for each ID as given in below output:
ID  YEAR    NPS NPS_gain_yoy
501 2022     0    0
501 2022    99   47
503 2022    4    3
504 2021    55   10

Here 47 is the maximum nps gain for ID 501 in year 2022 similarly 3 for ID 503 and 4 for Id 504.

A: If years are consecutive per ID first use DataFrameGroupBy.diff:
df = df.sort_values(['ID','YEAR'])

df['nps_gain_yoy'] = df.groupby('ID')['NPS'].diff().fillna(0)
print (df)
     ID  YEAR  NPS  nps_gain_yoy
0   500  2020    0           0.0
1   500  2021    0           0.0
2   500  2022    0           0.0
3   501  2020   32           0.0
4   501  2021   52          20.0
5   501  2022   99          47.0
6   503  2021    1           0.0
7   503  2022    4           3.0
8   504  2020   45           0.0
9   504  2021   55          10.0
10  504  2022   50          -5.0

And then DataFrameGroupBy.idxmax with DataFrame.loc:
df1 = df.loc[df.iloc[::-1].groupby('ID')['nps_gain_yoy'].idxmax()]
#alternative solution
#df1 = df.sort_values(['ID','nps_gain_yoy']).drop_duplicates('ID', keep='last')
print (df1)
    ID  YEAR  NPS  nps_gain_yoy
2  500  2022    0           0.0
5  501  2022   99          47.0
7  503  2022    4           3.0
9  504  2021   55          10.0

Benitez brings winger out from Chelsea wilderness
RAFA Benitez is ready to bring Yossi Benayoun out of the Chelsea wilderness.
The 32-year-old has not played for the Blues since August 2011 but made the bench for Sunday's FA Cup stalemate at Brentford.
He had been on loan at West Ham United but returned to Stamford Bridge earlier this month after a knee injury ruined his spell with the Hammers.
Interim boss Benitez had been hoping to supplement a squad stretched by a hectic fixture schedule and the African Cup of Nations this month.
But it seems that owner Roman Abramovich is not willing to stump up the cash for re-enforcements and Benitez will have to work with his existing players.
That includes Benayoun, who he worked with a Liverpool, and the Spaniard says he could feature for Chelsea at Reading's Madjeski Stadium on Wednesday night.
"Benayoun is part of the team and is training with the squad," said Benitez.
"He was on loan but has come back. He had an injury and has been working with the physios but you could see the other day he was available in the FA Cup and he will be available again tomorrow.
"We have Hazard and Moses out and Lucas Piazon is a young player who was playing in the same position as Oscar and Mata. Yossi can play in the wide areas so he can help and I know about his game intelligence.
"No doubt, he can give us something."
Benayoun is one of a number of players on the first-team fringes at Chelsea who have no long-term future at the club.
Paulo Ferreira will be given limited game time when needed but Florent Malouda will continue to be frozen out as he trains with the youth team.
