house.display()

My question is how super interacts with a class with no parent class. In the last line, house.display() is called and class HouseRental inherits 2 classes, the first which has no parent class. I see that when house.display() is called, it calls Rental.display() first, then the super() call in Rental.display() does not raise an error, but points to the next inherited class, House.display(), which then the super() call in House.display() points to its parent class, Property.
I get the gist of how super() works in this kind of way but I don't fully understand why super() in a base class points to the next class in the MRO instead of raising an error (something like "no parent class available")
Here is the output of house.display if you're interested:
{'square_feet': '1', 'beds': '2', 'baths': '3', 'fenced': 'no', 'garage': 'none', 'num_stories': '3', 'rent': '1', 'utilities': '4', 'furnished': 'no'}
PROPERTY DETAILS
================
square footage: 1
bedrooms: 2
bathrooms: 3

HOUSE DETAILS
# of stories: 3
garage: none
fenced yard: no
RENTAL DETAILS
rent: 1
estimated utilities: 4
furnished: no

A: All classes in Python implicitly inherit from the Object type: Python class inherits object.
Calling super().__init__ in a class with "no super class" will simply call the constructor for Object.

May 18th was International Museum Day, and most of the museums in Luxembourg offered free admission for the weekend. We took the opportunity to visit two museums we often glimpse from afar. They are perched at the edge of the Kirchberg plateau, overlooking the valley that wraps around the high city center. Kirchberg is the most modern section of Luxembourg city, and the area at the bottom of the valley is a very historic section. These two museums sit atop the valley at the threshold between. Together, they represent the Luxembourg cityscape in a nutshell: the stark juxtaposition of the old and the new.
Speaking of nutshells, Dräi Eechelen means "Three Acorns" in Luxembourgish - and you can see where the name comes from in the photo above.
I had heard the contemporary Mudam exhibits were a bit "inaccessible," even by modern art standards, so our expectations weren't high. Upon entering we were greeted by some creepy oversized hanging puppets. And, expectations = met.
The architecture of the building was certainly impressive, and we wandered rather swiftly through the majority of the exhibits. Eager to be out in the fresh air again, we headed for the Dräi Eechelen. This museum is an old fortress, and the exhibits within are related to the history of the fortress and associated military artifacts. Cannons, swords, guns, uniforms, maps, models - interesting exhibits but all the explanations are in French and German, so we just took a quick look-through. Still, it was much more accessible for the kids than the Mudam. I think there's an audio tour in English if we go back.
But again, the main reason for the outing was to enjoy the scenery and walk around in the sunshine. We wound our way down the path leading out through the fortress walls and into the valley below.
And we found a playground at the bottom. Always a nice bonus.
Below is an aerial view of the two museums, as well as more fortress wall ruins and the path leading down into the valley. The Dräi Eechelen is the somewhat...er...phallic-looking structure.
Just remember there are three acorns, not two.
It is with great interest that we follow your blog in general and the articles you publish about Mudam Luxembourg in particular.
Seeing your interest in our museum, we wanted to draw your attention on this next exhibition (http://www.mudam.lu/fr/expositions/details/exposition/yuri-suzuki/) and invite you to a preview of the installation in question, as well as a meeting with the Japanese artist Yuri Suzuki on Wednesday 31/07/2013 at 5 p.m., just prior to his live DJ Set at 6 pm at Mudam Café, to which you are obviously also cordially invited.

Melatonin no 'magic pill' for getting healthy kids to sleep
Melatonin is marketed as a natural sleep aid, but it's potentially risky for healthy children to use long term, Canadian pediatricians say.
Supplement effective for children with neurologic problems, doctors say
CBC News · Posted: Jul 07, 2013 12:57 PM ET | Last Updated: July 7, 2013
Melatonin no 'magic pill' for kids
Potentially risky as long term sleep aid: Canadian pediatricians 2:52
Melatonin is marketed as a natural sleep aid but it's potentially risky for healthy children to use long term, Canadian pediatricians say.
Difficulties settling, falling asleep and staying asleep affect up to 25 per cent of children generally and up to half of those with physical and mental health problems, according to the Canadian Sleep Society.
Zeb Fulcher takes melatonin for sleep problems associated with ADHD. (CBC)
Melatonin is a hormone of darkness that is part of the sleep cycle. People can buy melatonin supplements at pharmacies and health food stores to overcome jet lag or occasional insomnia.
But long-term use by healthy, developing children isn't advised, said Dr. Shelly Weiss, a neurologist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, who is studying the use of melatonin supplements for improving sleep in children with epilepsy.
"It's being touted as this magic pill," said Weiss. "There's definitely concern that people are going to use it more widely and not appreciate that their child can learn to sleep better without a hormone being given."
Healthy sleep tips for children
Consistent bedtimes and wake times seven days a week.
Establish a quiet time one to two hours before bedtime.
Predictable, consistent bedtime routine.
Cool, comfortable, quiet, dark bedroom. A nightlight is OK.
No electronics in the bedroom.
Avoid caffeinated food and beverages from midafternoon onward.
Regular exercise (but not close to bedtime).
Source: Dr. Shelly Weiss, Canadian Sleep Society
Melatonin supplements contain between 25 to 50 times as much melatonin as the body makes at night, Weiss noted.
"There's definitely potential risk, mostly to delayed puberty or delayed development in children who have taken it for a long time," said Weiss, who is also president of the Canadian Sleep Society and an associate professor at the University of Toronto.
For children with neurologic problems such as autism and cerebral palsy, melatonin definitely helps them to sleep when combined with behavioural strategies, Weiss said.
Toronto pediatrician Dr. Marvin Gans suggests melatonin to families of children with autism or ADHD. "For those parents, it's been a godsend."
For short-term circumstances like jet lag, it is fine, Gans said. But he also cautioned against long-term use in children without neurological problems since its long-term effects haven't been studied.
READ: 7 healthy sleep tips for children
"Certainly there's a buzz on it now," said Gans. "That's part of our quick-fix society where people want to get the kids to sleep quickly. We play until X hour and then they want them to be asleep in the next three minutes."
Zeb Fulcher, 8, of Windsor, Ont., has been taking melatonin with his ADHD medication for about two years.
"Before he would be up several times a night," recalled mother Marie Fulcher. "We would go to bed. He'd be up in the living room saying he can't fall asleep. And since, he doesn't do that anymore. He lays in bed, reads for a little while and then he's right off to sleep without issue."
Zeb also sees a difference with the melatonin. "You chill out from it and chill out so much that you fall asleep."
For children without neurological problems, doctors recommend teaching parents how to perform routines to get children to fall asleep.

A: Since most menus do not allow a search bar to show without it being a drop down item or part of a mega menu, your best bet would be to remove the float:right line of code so it just starts from that left side.

Or opt for the more intimate Ella Ballroom which caters to around 150 and features Venetian plaster walls and a chic jet black bar that exude sophisticated elegance.

The fines are not over for the big bad brokerage firms. Our country's largest investment banks are now facing a $3 billion to $4 billion liability from lawsuits arising because of all the conflicts, scams and rip-offs that have been pulled on Americans over the past 5 years.
Citigroup said it is setting aside a reserve of $1.3 billion to address the lawsuits. Credit Suisse First Boston is putting $450 million away. J.P. Morgan is reserving $900 million.
No matter what happens with the language of this stupid settlement it will be years before investors decide to participate in these class action lawsuits. Even if they do win, investors will receive pittance of what they actually lost. The real winners will be the law firms and the brokerage firms themselves. Lawyers love class action suits, it is like hitting the legal lottery. Tobacco, asbestos, Microsoft etc. etc., do you honestly think that individuals who really suffered received much of anything? The brokerage firms that state they are saving their pennies for all these lawsuits are full of it. Any penalty, lawsuit, or parking ticket is passed on to consumers through higher fees. This settlement is being spun as a breakthrough, a watershed moment for the industry. It is all a pack of lies.

Vision Zero: Speed limits reduced at 9 of the most dangerous streets in NYC
NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- Speed limits are being reduced by five miles per hour on nine of the most dangerous streets across New York City, officials announced Tuesday, as part of the city's ongoing Vision Zero efforts to reduce pedestrian deaths.
The reason, officials say, is a spike in the number of fatalities involving cars and motorcycles, already more than all of last year.
"New York City's children deserve safe, livable communities, and Vision Zero's groundbreaking work will protect them in their streets," Mayor Bill de Blasio said. "Slower speed limits, speed cameras, and increased enforcement will save lives and keep New York City the safest big city in America for the next generation."
Department of Transportation Commissioner Polly Torttenberg says it appears drivers have gotten used to driving faster on open roads during the coronavirus pandemic, when traffic has been reduced due to the lockdown.
"We know the reasons," she said. "It's not complicated. We see it in the crash reports. It's speeding."
Related: Hit and run driver injures bicyclist in Jamaica, Queens
The following areas will have speed limits reduced from 30 mph to 25:
--Riverside Drive in Manhattan, from 165th Street to 181st Street
--Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, from Grand Army Plaza to Empire Boulevard
--Northern Boulevard in Queens, from 114th Street to Glenwood Street
--Bruckner Boulevard in the Bronx, from East 135th Street to Pelham Bay Park
--Shore Parkway Service Road in Brooklyn, from Bay 8th Street to Plumb 3rd Street
--Dahlgren Place in Brooklyn, from 86th Street to 92nd Street
--Webster Avenue in the Bronx, from East 233 Street to East Gun Hill Road
--Targee Street in Staten Island, from West Fingerboard Road to Broad Street
The speed limit on Rockaway Boulevard in Queens from 150th Avenue to 3rd Street will also drop 5 mph, from 40 to 35.
All of the speed limits will go into effect as DOT posts new speed-limit signage over the next four to six weeks. Speed cameras located along any of these streets will be reprogrammed and will only issue warnings for the first 60 days after new signage is posted.
Related: 19-year-old bicyclist fatally struck by MTA bus on Upper East Side
The number of speed camera violations has doubled to over 20,000 a month, and the city is moving forward with its camera program.
The number of cameras is up to 950, including in every school zone.
In the last year, DOT has lowered the speed limit along Manhattan's West Street as well as along 3rd Avenue and Hamilton Avenue, two major streets under Brooklyn's Gowanus Expressway. The nine newly targeted streets, more than 25 miles citywide, are largely arterial roadways that are also heavily used by pedestrians and cyclists.

Demise of the 79 year old neon lights of Tai Tung Bakery, Yuen Long, Hong Kong
September 19, 2022 Hugh Farmer Articles, Food and Beverages, General, Hong Kong Companies, Retailers
"Established since 1943, Tai Tung Bakery is one of the oldest bakeries in Hong Kong and offers traditional-style Chinese pastries that range from bread to cakes and biscuits, to seasonal delicacies such as mooncakes and Chinese new year sweets and delights."(1)
"Another piece of Hong Kong's heritage will go when the bright lights of the Tai Tung Bakery in Yuen Long are dismantled after the Mid-Autumn Festival, stirring debate on conservation of the city's neon signage.
"It's very sad," said Peter Tse Hing-chi, third generation owner of the traditional pastry shop which opened in 1943. "This sign grew with the business. It is historically significant – for as long as the shop has been here, the sign has also been here."
He was supposed to remove the sign this May, as it was first declared unauthorised and a safety hazard two years ago, but had appealed to keep it. Tse hoped to keep the sign up at least until after this year's Mid-Autumn Festival on Saturday and wished to continue negotiating with the government to keep it up."(2)

Why is the Hong Kong Government against neon lights?
"In the past 20 years, the government has tightened safety regulations and removed signs that are deemed too big or hang too far over the pavement. That, combined with the advent of cheaper, mass-produced LED technology, has led to the disappearance of neon signs from Hong Kong's streets."(3)

Movie Review: "Colossal" (2017)
Movie: "Colossal"
Director: Nacho Vigalondo
Gloria has lost control of her life and has returned to her hometown to get it back in order. This coincides with a mysterious monster that appears in Seoul, South Korea and destroys part of the city. Gloria soon discovers that she and the monster have a mysterious connection, and now, she must solve that problem as well.
"Colossal" is written and directed by Nacho Vigalondo, who is probably best known for his 2007 horror film "Timecrimes." It stars Anne Hathaway as Gloria, a woman who embraces the party lifestyle and abuses alcohol constantly, which gets her in trouble with her boyfriend Tim, played by Dan Stevens. Eventually, because of her binging, Tim kicks her out of his apartment. Out of options, Gloria returns to her hometown and gets a job waiting tables at a bar owned by her childhood friend named Oscar, played by Jason Sudeikis. Just as she returns to her hometown, a giant monster appears from literally out of nowhere in Seoul, South Korea, destroying parts of the city in its wake. Eventually, Gloria comes to realize she and the monster are connected, which causes more strife, unintended consequences, and chaos in her already royally screwed up life.
This is a darkly comedic sci-fi drama that uses a giant kaiju monster as a metaphor for some deep real life situations. When the film starts off, its tone is almost comedic as it looks to set up a rom-com scenario with a Godzilla-esque twist. Surprisingly, the film takes an extremely dark turn about midway through its run time that completely alters the audience's perspective on many things and threw us for a loop. The tone of the story completely changes as it starts to explore intense situations we hadn't anticipated from a movie featuring a city-destroying monster. This shift may be off-putting to some, but we found it quite gripping and manages to keep the audience guessing as to where exactly it's heading. It could have gone really hokey really quickly, but luckily, Nacho Vigalondo never wanes in his vision. In addition, the acting is quite good here. Others may certainly disagree, but we think Anne Hathaway is fantastic as Gloria and can certainly sell the "life in shambles" angle. Her part requires her to be multiple things throughout the course of the plot, from a foggy binge drinker to a badass protector. Gloria has to seek redemption in more ways than one, and we think Hathaway truly fits the bill. Jason Sudeikis has an excellent screen presence as usual. He is a charismatic man and is even quite likable at times, but also has many layers to this role as he maybe harboring ulterior motives. Their chemistry is really something, and that's all we'll say for fear of spoilers. Finally, the visual effects are striking and excellent for a movie with a $15 million budget.
If we had to critique one thing, it's that not every aspect of "Colossal" is completely wrapped up tightly. Things are brought up and eluded too that never get explained or wrapped up in a neat manner. However, we enjoyed the concept and overall theme so much that it doesn't matter to us whether every little detail had a conclusion or not.
"Colossal" is not playing in a ton of theaters, but if you can find this charming, bizarre, deceptively immersive film, it is definitely worth a watch. Though not entirely without faults, it's innovative, funny, smart, and wicked enough to illicit a viewing.

What is Secret Places: The Connections project?
In 2011/12 OTYP in partnership with Powerhouse Youth Theatre produced and created joint works of theatre which were later performed by young people in Griffith and its sister city, Fairfield, in Sydney. The project was about theatrical pen-palling. Creating new dynamic theatre works across large geographical, cultural and social differences.
For all you folks who missed it, here is our amazing production of "wet. povo. slick. yolo." created by the young people of Griffith.
In the leadup to the final Secret Places outcome, young people from Griffith were given the opportunity to visit Sydney to see some theatre and collaborate directly with young people in Western Sydney engaging with PYT. You can see the exchange below: Secret Places: On The Road from Outback Theatre for Young People on Vimeo.
Theatre for Young People in conjunction with Powerhouse Youth Theatre presents Secret Places: The Connections Project 4 schools, 2 towns, 2 simultaneous performances. Come and see what happens! Click on the image for full size.

Q: Unable to access Inner class issue in java local variables referenced from an inner class must be final or effectively final error is shown in the code below:
public Vector<Map<String, Object>> newsFeedConnection(String var, Hashtable punishment) {
    ConnectionRequest connectionRequest;
    connectionRequest = new ConnectionRequest() {
        @Override
        protected void readResponse(InputStream input) throws IOException {
            JSONParser p = new JSONParser();
            results = p.parse(new InputStreamReader(input));

            punishment = (Hashtable) results.get("punishment");
        }
    }
}

But when i change change it into final (code below), it gives "cannot assign a value to final variable punishment" error again.
public Vector<Map<String, Object>> newsFeedConnection(String var, final Hashtable punishment) {
    ConnectionRequest connectionRequest;
    connectionRequest = new ConnectionRequest() {
        @Override
        protected void readResponse(InputStream input) throws IOException {
            JSONParser p = new JSONParser();
            results = p.parse(new InputStreamReader(input));

            punishment = (Hashtable) results.get("punishment");
        }
    }
}

How do I solve this problem?If I set a global variable, I cannot access the value from the method in other classes.

A: You are reinitiating a final variable which is conceptually not acceptable, just change the values inside punishment without creating it again and that will solve your problem.

A: Pass by Value vs. Pass by Reference - When you pass an object reference you are doing pass by reference. When you do so you can change the state of the object by invoking appropriate methods on the object but you cannot change the reference of the object itself. For example:
    public class TestPassByReference {

    public static void main(String[] args){
        StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder("Lets Test!");
        changeStringDoesNotWork(stringBuilder);
        System.out.println(stringBuilder.toString());
        changeString(stringBuilder);
        System.out.println(stringBuilder.toString());
    }

    static void changeString(StringBuilder stringBuilder){
        stringBuilder.append(" Yeah I did it!");
    }

    static void changeStringDoesNotWork(StringBuilder stringBuilder){
        stringBuilder = new StringBuilder("This will not work!");
    }
}

The output:
Lets Test!               //Value did not change
Lets Test! Yeah I did it!

I hope now you can co-relate what you are trying to do clashes with this basic aspect and hence incorrect.
What you can do however is this:
HashTable tempHashTable = (Hashtable) results.get("punishment");
punishment.clear();
punishment.putAll(tempHashTable);

Also why use HashTable? There are better threadsafe collection classes out there which give better performance.

A: You can solve it by updating you punishment variable:
public Vector<Map<String, Object>> newsFeedConnection(String var,  final Hashtable punishment) {
        ConnectionRequest connectionRequest;
        connectionRequest = new ConnectionRequest() {
            @Override
            protected void readResponse(InputStream input) throws IOException {
                JSONParser p = new JSONParser();
                results = p.parse(new InputStreamReader(input));

                punishment.putAll((Hashtable) results.get("punishment"));
                  }
            }
        }
}

Double Arsenal injury blow: Star to undergo surgery, another ruled out for 7 games
By mac14 on January 27, 2019
Arsenal's injury woes have worsened after the club confirmed that Sokratis has been ruled out until the end of February with an ankle injury while Laurent Koscielny needs surgery on his jaw.
Sokratis limped off with an ankle injury during the first half of our FA Cup fourth round defeat to Manchester United on Friday night and Unai Emery was initially hopeful it was nothing serious.
However, the injury is much worse than anticipated as the club have revealed that Sokratis has been ruled out until the end of February meaning he'll miss at least the next seven games in all competitions.
The Greek international will sit out our Europa League double-header with BATE and miss Premier League games with Cardiff, Man City, Huddersfield, Southampton and Bournemouth while he'll also be in a race against time for the trip to Tottenham on March 2nd.
It's a huge blow to lose Sokratis at this time as he's only just returned from injury but our problems at the back are compounded by a nasty jaw problem to Koscielny.
The Frenchman was forced off with a suspected broken jaw against United after being accidentally kicked in the face by Romelu Lukaku but thankfully the club says he's only suffered bruising and swelling.
An update on Arsenal.com said:
Bruising and soft tissue swelling to face and jaw. Being reviewed on a daily basis.
Left ankle. Expected to return to full training by the end of February.
However, L'Equipe claim that while Koscielny hasn't suffered a break, he will still need to undergo an operation to remove a blood clot that is putting pressure on nerves in his jaw.
It's not clear how long the Frenchman will be out for but let's pray it's not a lengthy absence as we're down to the bare bones in defence with Rob Holding and Hector Bellerin out for the rest of the season.
Shkodran Mustafi is certain to be recalled for the foreseeable future but Emery is going to have to call upon Nacho Monreal, Stephan Lichtsteiner, Dinos Mavropanos or move Granit Xhaka in to defence if Koscielny is ruled out for any significant time.
It's a nightmare situation as we fight to save our season. We might be able to get past Cardiff at home with a patched-up defence but Man City away next Sunday could get messy.

American Red Cross Heroes Event Scheduled for March 10
Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Tumblr Pinterest Reddit WhatsApp Share via Email Print
The American Red Cross, Heart of Tennessee Chapter is pivoting the normal in-person Heroes Breakfast to a virtual event. While this year's event will look different it continues to be an opportunity for the chapter to celebrate the work of volunteers, and honor the 2021 Hero, Tennessee's 76th Adjutant General, Maj. Gen. Jeffrey H. Holmes.
The online event will also highlight the work of the Red Cross and local businesses and community leaders who support the Red Cross services and programs that provide humanitarian and emergency aid to the community when disaster strikes.
The National Guard tank platoon leader, then Lieutenant Holmes, was deployed in the Mississippi woods 30 years ago when he received an emergency message from the American Red Cross. A helicopter flew him to the headquarters where an American Red Cross representative said his wife, Rhonda, was in labor with their second child.
"Rhonda has a standing habit of having kids one month early," Holmes chuckled. The Red Cross arranged for him to quickly fly home to Tennessee where he was there to greet his daughter, Leah on her birthday. "It was really a great memory. It would not have occurred without the Red Cross."
Today, the veteran commands the Tennessee National Guard and still depends on the Red Cross to support he and his solders throughout their careers. "I have great respect for the Red Cross," Holmes said, describing the Red Cross as dependable and comforting.
"That's one reason why Gen. Holmes is being honored with our annual Heroes Award," said Heart of Tennessee chapter executive director Tara Stone.
"He has not only commanded ground forces in combat, but also led military disaster response efforts across the United States, including the recent tornadoes we experienced here in Middle Tennessee and Putnam County," Stone added.
"The Red Cross was founded during times of war and 'Serves Those Who Serve,'" she said. "The Heart of Tennessee Chapter, and our previous Hero Honorees, look forward to honoring Holmes and share the connection of The American Red Cross and our Armed Forces."
Holmes, who lives with his family in Lascassas, began his military career as an armor crewman at Fort Knox, Kentucky. His drill sergeant volunteered the soldiers, who had been banned from sugar for two months, to give blood. The soldiers were excited because the Red Cross volunteers gave them cake after they donated blood. He continued giving blood in support of a colleague who was a multi-gallon donor at the Red Cross in Nashville.
He has been serving his country for 40 years while running and owning successful architecture businesses.
Heart of Tennessee thanks Ole South Properties, and Video Story Productions as presenting sponsors. For more information on the event, or how to become a sponsor, contact Tara Stone at tara.stone@redcross.org.

Despite a wash out summer, the AA reveals that the roads this weekend will be as busy as they were during last summer's Bank Holiday scorcher, with an estimated 18 million vehicles travelling over 77 miles each to enjoy their last chance for a summer break.
New research from the AA reveals that over a third of motorists (37%) have pre-planned a Bank Holiday getaway this weekend - slightly up on last years number (35%). One in five will be taking a long weekend away and 17 per cent have organised day trips.
Many motorists however are cautiously waiting until the last minute to decide if they will head out on to the roads over the weekend. This has led the UK's largest breakdown organisation, to advise motorists about the importance of making vital car care checks before setting off, to help prevent unnecessary breakdowns and to ensure vehicles are prepared for unpredictable driving conditions.
Regardless of what the weather has in store, nearly a third (29 per cent) of Bank Holiday Brits are still intending to head for seaside resorts. AA Route Planner data reveals that Brighton, Bournemouth and Blackpool will be the popular destinations over the course of the weekend.
Friday will be the busiest day to travel with roads getting busy from late morning, as people make the most of the last public holiday until Christmas. Friday is also expected to be the busiest day for breakdowns. The AA received just under 96,000 breakdown calls last August Holiday weekend, and these are expected to rise this year thanks to unpredictable weather. As such the AA will have around 20% more patrols available during this period.
The AA's Patrol of the Year, Adam Ashmore, explains: "It's been a fairly unpredictable summer this year and this looks set to be the case over the Bank Holiday weekend too. Rain or shine, we always advise drivers to make careful preparations before setting out on a journey, including finding out about local traffic and weather conditions. Checking your car's coolant and oil levels, battery, tyre tread and pressures can all make for a much smoother, incident-free journey.
"A number of major events and festivals that may cause local congestion are also scheduled to take place over the Bank Holiday weekend and there is a full programme of sporting fixtures in place; so it is always good advice to plan your route before travelling and to leave plenty of time for your journey."
For motorists wanting advice on making key checks before they travel, the AA has created a set of podcasts featuring experienced AA patrols demonstrating simple car care procedures. The AA is advising drivers heading out this weekend to view the 'how to check windscreen wipers' and 'preparing for a journey' podcasts at http://www.theAApodcasts.com.
The Bank Holiday Monday itself will see much higher levels of traffic returning to major city destinations in the evening as people return to start work on Tuesday.

EDITORIAL: A new leaf for Honor
We are optimistic for Honor's new term — newly elected officials means a new opportunity for a student-governing body that respects students demands
In light of the historic referendum vote, we as an Editorial Board have chosen to remain hopeful for the future of Honor.

The University's student body overwhelmingly voted to pass a historic amendment to the Honor Committee's single sanction policy this year. Marking the biggest change to Honor since its inception, students unequivocally proved the impact we can have on student self-governance. Throughout this term, Honor has dealt with a host of internal problems — particularly, a lack of transparency and accountability. However, we believe that this amendment's passage proves change is always possible. A new term means Honor's practices and norms moving forward are a decision for newly-elected representatives to make — for better or for worse, this is a new start. New representatives — dedicate yourselves to transparency and accountability this year. Here are a few suggestions.
Internal elections present the first opportunity for representatives to commit themselves fully to these ideals. The way these elections have been historically conducted presents a particularly troubling trend of secrecy within Honor. Typically, the Committee holds its internal elections to select executive committee members during closed session. Internal elections should not be a secret affair into which students have no insight. Students should know who is running for what position and what those candidates' platforms are. Though only Honor representatives vote for committee chairs, representatives should hear constituents' opinions before casting their own vote. Honor cases may occur privately, but an elective process with the potential to affect any University student should not. At the very least, Honor should permit public discussion prior to internal elections. Particularly given the ambiguity and allegations surrounding last year's election, it is evident that the student body needs access to these proceedings. We call on the Honor Committee to make its elections more accessible, more accountable and more democratic.
In light of the historic referendum vote, we as an Editorial Board have chosen to remain hopeful for the future of Honor. Students have shown that they want to be heard, and Honor representatives — whether re-elected or newly-elected — are now tasked with hearing and responding to them. The student body desires an increasingly rehabilitative Honor system — one that seeks to assist students rather than solely punishing them. As such, we encourage the incoming Honor Committee to respect the desires of University students and dedicate themselves to implementing an effective and rehabilitative Honor system.
We also call for the use of remote and proxy voting for Committee members — in order to be effective, the Committee simply has to meet. Honor has not met quorum since Nov. 3 and following student body elections, the Committee's chair canceled all remaining meetings. Despite calls from representatives to implement virtual meeting and voting options, leadership remained resistant to its members requests for hybrid meetings. Quite frankly, we are sick of the Committee's strict dependence on Robert's Rules of Order to substantiate why it has been inflexible in its meeting formats. Student Council uses this same system and has conducted hybrid meetings this entire academic year. Honor must employ measures that allow them to take action and be accountable to student demands. Though COVID-19 cases have been tracking downwards this semester, Honor should nonetheless increase its accessibility for members unable to make meetings for extremely valid reasons, including the difficulty and cost of finding transportation, professional commitments and the fact that we still live in a pandemic.
Honor must serve current students. The community will not benefit from an Honor Committee that completely conceals its executive members' elections. Students should not be served by an Honor Committee stained by canceled meetings and failures to meet quorum due to stubborn leadership. Students should not be served by an Honor Committee that refuses to be held accountable. This is a new term. Let it initiate a truly transparent and accountable Honor Committee.
The Cavalier Daily Editorial Board is composed of the Executive Editor, the Editor-in-Chief, the two Opinion Editors, their Senior Associate and an Opinion Columnist. The board can be reached at eb@cavalierdaily.com.
ONIBUDO: There may be a war, but it is not on merit
By Nathan Onibudo | Yesterday
For years, conservative activists have been trying to paint the picture that Thomas Jefferson High School's focus on equity means its leadership is actively trying to destroy the concepts of hard work and merit.
We should not have to say time and time again that we do not want a person on the University's highest governing body who has tried to tear down a sign from a student's door

Maxillofacial injuries, also referred to as facial trauma, encompass any injury to the oral or facial structures. These injuries may include fractures of the lower jaw, upper jaw, palate, nasal bones, cheek bones, eye sockets, and combinations of these bones and/or lacerations of the overlying skin and soft tissue. These injuries can affect sight and the ability to breathe, speak, and swallow. Treatment often requires hospitalization. Almost everyone has experienced such an injury or knows someone who has. Most maxillofacial injuries are caused by a sports mishap, motor vehicle accident, on-the-job accident, act of violence, or an accident in the home.

HEISER: After 45 years, there's no end in sight for public-private debate in PIAA sports
Steve Heiser
The PIAA first admitted private schools as members in 1972.
Since that time, many public-school folks have claimed private schools have an unfair advantage.
In the past four years, private schools have claimed 26 of 36 PIAA basketball crowns.
Our Pennsylvania Legislature created this mess more than 45 years ago, and unfortunately, only the Legislature can likely fix it.
Yeah, good luck with that.
What mess are we talking about?
If you look at the high school sports calendar, you can likely figure it out.
Still haven't guessed it?
It's the public-vs.-private controversy that annually reaches a fever pitch in the week leading up to the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association basketball championship games. This year's state finals start Thursday in Hershey.
The beginning: This became a major issue on Oct. 16, 1972, when Gov. Milton Shapp signed Act 219 — an amendment to the Public School Code that forever changed Pennsylvania high school athletics.
It reads simply: "Private schools shall be permitted, if otherwise qualified, to be members of the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association."
Sounds fairly benign, doesn't it?
No one, at the time, could've predicted the political and athletic firestorm those few words would unleash.
Before the 1972 act, only public schools competed in the PIAA playoffs. Catholic schools, meanwhile, competed in their own state playoffs, operated by the Pennsylvania Catholic Interscholastic Athletic Association.
Private schools become dominant force: Since Act 219 was signed, private schools have become a dominant force in PIAA competition overall, but especially in basketball, where only a few players can swing the outcome of a game — or a season.
Over the previous four seasons, for instance, 26 of the 36 state basketball championships were won by private schools. Private schools make up only a fraction of the PIAA membership, but are winning the lion's share state basketball crowns.
Not surprisingly, that doesn't sit well with most public-school folks — and they have a legitimate argument. There have long been cries that private (or nonboundary) schools unethically recruit, skirt the rules against transferring for athletic purposes and can unfairly draw players from areas far from their campus.
Philadelphia story: The complaints became even louder when the Philadelphia city schools were added as District 12 members in 2008-09.
The Catholic and charter schools from the city quickly became PIAA basketball powers.
This year, the debate has become even more boisterous — and that's saying something.
Neumann-Goretti: The focal point of the debate this season rests on the girls' team from Philadelphia's Neumann-Goretti. The Saints have won three straight PIAA basketball titles with an average margin of victory in those state finals of nearly 30 points.
That kind of dominance doesn't make a program very popular with its opponents, especially when it comes with charges of recruiting players from all over the mid-Atlantic region.
This year, however, N-G was struggling a bit, comparatively speaking.
They entered the state Class 3-A playoffs with a rather ordinary 17-7 record after losing to Imhotep Charter in the District 12 title game.
Transfer controversy: Suddenly, when the state playoffs rolled around, N-G had a new star player — Diamond Johnson, who had already played 19 games this season for a high school in Hampton, Virginia, averaging 33 points per game. The sophomore already has NCAA Division I scholarship offers.
Since her addition, Neumann-Goretti has won four straight state playoff games by an average of more than 22 points per game and has won a spot in yet another state title game in Hershey. Johnson is averaging about 16 points per game for N-G.
District 12 approved Johnson's transfer and declared her eligible for the PIAA playoffs. District 12 vice chair Joe Sette issued the following statement about Johnson:
"We found out that the student was a native of Philadelphia and left for Virginia when she was 11 years old. She returned to Philadelphia due to a private family matter which I cannot divulge to you."
Sarcasm duly noted: Dunmore coach Ben O'Brien was hardly surprised at the late addition, which seemed suspiciously convenient for N-G. His teams had been eliminated by the Saints in PIAA action in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
"Last time we played them, their best player was from Virginia, they had two starters from New Jersey and two from Philadelphia," he told the Scranton Times-Tribune. "The season before that, they had two from New Jersey, one from Texas and two from Nigeria. So I guess you could say their basketball recruiting footprint is getting smaller, which I am sure the PIAA appreciates."
His comments were practically dripping with sarcasm.
He went on to say: "This has been a hot-button issue for many years now, and it's hard to imagine that no one has been able to come up with an equitable solution."
Possible remedies: O'Brien is right. No one has come up with a solution — certainly not the PIAA. There have been innumerable suggestions, including:
►Having completely separate tournaments for public and private schools and then having the champions square off.
►Making all private schools compete at 6-A level because they don't have to adhere to the boundary regulations imposed on public schools.
►Using some kind of statistical formula that would ultimately end up bumping private schools to higher classifications across the board.
►Tightening the rules against transfers for athletic reasons.
Change needed, but unlikely: There's no doubt that change is needed. Some (but not all) private schools are clearly gaming the system and gaining a huge competitive advantage over the public schools.
The PIAA's role is to prevent that.
However, it's become apparent that the PIAA is reluctant to make any major changes because it's fearful (and rightfully so) that the state Legislature will again intrude into its business and dictate policy to the PIAA.
There also is little doubt that the PIAA is fearful of litigation from the private schools.
So, it's likely up to the Legislature to make this situation right. Our politicians created this mess in 1972, and it's up to them to fix it.
That seems highly unlikely. The politicians don't want to wade into this quagmire either.
So the public-private debate will almost certainly rage on … year after year after year … with no real solution in sight.

Biography of Alexa Grasso [Age, Height, Family, Boyfriend, Salary & Net Worth]
Beauty and the Beast is an extremely familiar term used to describe the difference between two different people with drastic characteristics. However, in the context of Alexa Grasso, she is both in one body.
Not only is the Mexican beauty one of the most talented female strikers, but she is also probably the most beautiful MMA fighter in this era. As a result, Alexa is one of the better-known fighters in the UFC currently.
In this report, I will guide you through the 26-year-old beauty's early career in Invicta FC, success and controversies with the UFC, net worth and fight purse, and her body measurements.
But first, I have some quick facts so that you beautiful people can get warmed up.

Consequently, the beautiful Mexican's hype was beginning to grow when Invicta FC snapped up Grasso. Subsequently, she made her debut against Ashley Cummins at Invicta FC 8, which she won by unanimous decision.
Grasso lands a left jab on Cummins.
The 26-year-old stayed with the company for another three fights as Invicta had Alexa contracted for another year.
She won all of those bouts convincingly in a one-sided affair, which only propelled her status in the MMA scene.
As a result, the top MMA promotion UFC swooped in and signed Grasso from under the nose of their competitor, Invicta FC. On her debut for UFC, Alexa faced fierce opposition in Heather Jo Clark.
Just like her previous nine bouts, the Mexican beauty won the fight by unanimous decision.
But, in the 26-year-old's next fight, she was brought back down to Earth as Grasso endured the first loss of her career against Felice Herrig.
It came as a surprise to many onlookers mainly because the Mexican beauty was the favorite going into the fight.
Grasso loses via a unanimous decision.
As the saying goes, "When it rains, it pours," in her next fight, Alexa missed the weight limit of 115 lbs by 4 lbs.
It was enough for UFC to fine the talented striker 20% of her total purse for the event. However, she rose through the problematic situation and managed to win the fight via a split decision.
In her subsequent bout against Tatiana Suarez
It seemed like the Mexican beauty could not get out of the rot because she withdrew from all of them due to various injuries on her next three fights. What many people don't know is that MMA fighters live paycheck to paycheck.
Therefore, pulling out of those three fights had impacted not only her health but also her earnings.
It was the toughest year of the young MMA fighter's career as she had never experienced something like this before.
Nevertheless, the Mexican pulled herself together and beat Karolina Kowalkiewicz at UFC 238. It seemed as though Grasso had finally turned a corner, but sadly it didn't turn out to be true.
UFC on ESPN+ 17 will forever be remembered as one of the most controversial moments in UFC history because of the fight between Alexa Grasso and Carla Esparza.
During the fight, Grasso had put Esparza on an armbar, a maneuver that can snap one's arm in half.
It seemed as though Carla had tapped due to extreme pain, but the referee didn't manage to see the incident. As a result, the fight continued and went the full distance.
However, there was still one more controversy left as when the fight ended, to the surprise of all the fans, Esparza was declared the winner via a majority decision.
Anyone watching the match could have sworn that Alexa won the bout as she dominated every round.
Grasso was rightly angry with the decision as she felt she got robbed. Also, fans all over the world took to social media to voice their displeasure at the result.
On the contrary, Alexa did manage to win the Fight of the Night award. It was the only positive she could take from the scandalous result. However, there was still another twist left in the story.
The beautiful striker was set to face Claudia Gadelha, one of the top strawweight fighters in UFC at the moment. But, it seems as though Grasso is going through possibly the unluckiest chapter in her professional career.
To further highlight, the two fighters, as mentioned earlier, were set to meet at UFC 246 in one of the televised fights at the event.
As it later turned out, UFC 246 was the highest-grossing event of the whole year for UFC. The primary reason being the return of the most eccentric and must-see fighter of this era, Conor McGregor.
, Grasso had the worst fight of her career to date as Suarez won the contest via a rear-naked choke in the first round of the bout.
However, the fight got canceled because Alexa badly missed the weight limit of 115 pounds by weighing 121.5 pounds. On the contrary, Gadelha came in at a perfect 115.5 pounds.
Consequently, the Nevada State Athletic Commission canceled the fight because fighters must be only 3 lbs apart at the weigh-ins.
Subsequently, the Mexican fighter announced that she will now be fighting in the UFC's flyweight division. The reason is the difficulties of weight-cutting and the adverse effects on the health of a fighter.
Let's hope for Alexa's sake that she regains the form she showed earlier in her career, which landed her in the UFC. And at just 26 years old, I have the utmost confidence that the beautiful Mexican can one day become a champion in the UFC.
Fight of the Night (vs. Carla Esparza)
Second most significant strikes thrown in a fight (369 strikes vs. Karolina Kowalkiewicz)
Invicta Fighting Championships
Fight of the Night (Two times vs. Mizuki Inoue)
Performance of the Night (vs. Jodie Esquibel)
At the time of writing, Grasso weighs around 115 pounds (52 kg), which is the maximum limit for the UFC's Strawweight Division. Like most other strawweight fighters, the Lobo gym member stands at 5 feet and 5 inches.
Alexa Grasso flexing her muscles
On the one hand, Grasso can easily dodge strikes from her opponents due to her reflexes. On the other hand, Alexa can land clean hits to her opposition because of her boxing background.
Furthermore, the Mexican beauty is only 26 years old. It is incredibly young for a fighter of her ilk as most top-level MMA fighter only hit their peak during their mid 30's.
Thus, I believe that Grasso can improve her current ranking of 13 in UFC's strawweight division and even challenge for the title one day.
Unfortunately, there is a massive disparity in the pay for male and female MMA fighters, just like many other professions.
As a result, the beautiful fighter has a net worth of $200,000 accrued mainly through MMA activities.
For her most recent bout at UFC Fight Night: Rodriguez vs. Stephens, Grasso earned $92,000, of which $37,000 was for showing up, $50,000 for Fight of the Night bonus, and $5,000 for fight week incentive pay.
Alexa Grasso was born to Luis Grasso and an unknown mother. At the moment, Grasso's mother's name remains undisclosed, but I will update it as soon as the information is made public.
Although Grasso is one of the most popular MMA fighters currently, she is very introverted when it comes to her relationships.
The beautiful Mexican fighter gets bombarded with questions regarding her relationship. But she has never spoken about the topic publicly.
Alexa Grasso and Yair Rodriguez
However, Alexa is rumored to be in a relationship with Yair Rodriguez, a fellow Mexican and MMA fighter. It seems as though the pair are a match made in heaven.
In my opinion, if the rumors are correct, then the two fighters are the perfect match for each other as they understand the sacrifices one needs to make to be a top-level fighter.

Currently, Alexa Grasso stands as number 12 in the Women Flyweight division.
Alexa Grasso's reach is 66 inches (168 cm). Furthermore, she owns a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Alexa Grasso's MMA record is thirteen wins and three losses in the total of sixteen games she has played. Amidst the wins, Grasso has four by knockouts and nine by decision. Likewise, his losses depict one by submission and two by decision.

Serious Educational Video Games (SEGs) play a large role in education for both children and adults. However, the budget for SEGs is typically lower than traditional entertainment video games, bringing with it the need to optimize the learning experience. This article looks at the role game immersion plays in improving learning outcomes, using the Revised Game Engagement Model (R-GEM) to determine whether learning outcomes were associated specifically with Immersion itself, or with the various prerequisites to achieving immersion. A sample of 125 undergraduate university students which played an educational video game and were assessed on Immersion, subjective System Usability, Creative Imagination, and learning performance. Immersion and System Usability were shown to be associated with higher learning outcomes, but, after controlling for other factors, it seems that System Usability is only helpful inasmuch as it promotes Immersion. This article concludes that further study is needed to determine whether the same association can be found with different populations and with different types of learning.
