bbc.comEngland's James Willstrop won the biggest singles title of his career by beating New Zealand's Paul Coll to take Commonwealth Games gold.The 34-year-old, who lost in the Commonwealth singles final in both 2010 and 2014, won 11-9 11-4 11-6.It was England's second squash medal of the Games after Sarah-Jane Perry took silver in the women's event, in which Wales' Tesni Evans secured bronze.
Perry lost against New Zealand's Joelle King 16-14 11-8 6-11 11-13 11-8.
While Perry, 27, is likely to get more opportunities to top the podium, Willstrop has said this is his last Commonwealth Games. "It just clicked," Willstrop said. "It was the stuff you dream of. Most brilliant performances in my career, everything works and clicks. That's happened today. That is one of the best performances."There was no expectation. Everything in the lead-up has to go well and it just did. No illnesses for once, it went smoothly, so I knew it was there."Perhaps slightly fatigued from his 106-minute semi-final win over Wales' Joel Makin, Coll never looked at ease in the final.After closing out the first set, Willstrop took control, staying in points by doggedly chasing down the ball and wearing his opponent down in lengthy exchanges. Victory arrived in just 42 minutes - his shortest match since the opening round.Willstrop, a theatre enthusiast, will be acting in a play in Harrogate in the aftermath of the Games, and has been mastering his lines in recent weeks."I find it does work a little bit," he added. "Maybe it exercises some part of the brain, I don't know."
Sarah-Jane Perry beat Wales' Tesni Evans in the semi-finalsPerry, by contrast, rarely had control of her final.She admitted afterwards she tried to be too aggressive from defensive positions early in the match, allowing King to take a two-game lead.Perry, who saved match point at 2-1 down, also ran head-first into the side wall when attempting to keep a point alive."I gave everything. I even face-planted into the wall," Perry told BBC Sport."I came with the goal of a medal. I'd have loved that before the Games but am absolutely gutted right now."King - ranked four places higher than her opponent - raced into a 4-0 lead in the final game but Perry used two walls on successive shots to fight back to 8-8.But, after contact from King in the middle of the court, Perry stopped expecting a let call which did not come, a moment she later said she may have "a few nightmares" about.King pushed on to close out the final game.

This Drew Barrymore & Tom Green Reunion Is Exactly What 2020 Needed
September 30, 2020 UTC: 6:57 PM. by Rose Burke
Drew Barrymore invited her ex Tom Green onto her show after almost two decades without contact.
During the interview, it's apparent that both Barrymore and Green have lingering feelings for each other.
Not only was Barrymore brought to tears while reminiscing about their relationship, but Green saved something special from the past.
Drew Barrymore invited her ex-husband Tom Green onto her new talk show after not having seen or spoken to him in nearly 20 years, and it's clear that the two still have a pretty deep connection. Throughout the interview, their vibes were off the charts as they shared some memories from their relationship.
Since neither of them is currently married, could there be more than just a reunion for television in their future?
Check out the full interview below:
Drew Barrymore Gushed Over Green's Work
Barrymore and Green couldn't stop staring into each other's eyes as they reminisced about how they first met on "The Drew Barrymore Show." Barrymore gushed as she spoke about how much she admired his work, which is ultimately why the two connected.
One of the things that means so much to me professionally also is because one of the reasons we got to know each other in the first place was I admired your work so much and so I reached out to you and asked you to come and do "Charlie's Angels" and you so graciously said yes.
According to Green, the two hit it off immediately and had one an unforgettable first date. After bonding over their love of animals, they decided to buy some lobsters and set them free in the ocean. How adorable.
Green Saved Something Special From Their Past
Tom Green saved this mug depicting a less-than-flattering photo of his ex-wife, Drew Barrymore. | Source: YouTube
As if it wasn't already clear that Green still has feelings for his ex-wife, he brought a small token from their relationship onto the show. A mug with Barrymore's face on it. He joked about bringing it on the show saying:
I found this mug in my garage a couple of years ago and I just kind of kept it because I figured someday I might be on your TV show and it'd be fun to have a sip out of your mug.
Barrymore's wearing a neck brace in the photo on the mug as she had sprained it during a yoga fiasco. Still, he kept it all those years! That has to mean something!
Drew Barrymore Was Brought To Tears
Was nice reconnecting with my ex-wife @DrewBarrymore after all these years. Watch her new show everyone she is doing amazing! 😀😀😀 https://t.co/WnHNAXxs6d
— Tom Green (@tomgreenlive) September 25, 2020
At one point in the interview, Barrymore recalled when she stayed at Green's family home in Canada. It was one of the few times in her life that she had a good night's sleep.
This is what safety and contentedness feel [like] when you're going to sleep. And I will never forget that night.
Barrymore then talked about loving and continuing to celebrate Green through tear-filled eyes. These weren't anything like Kim Kardashian's crocodile tears! I feel it's clear these two have some unfinished business?
Why'd They Split In The First Place?
Barrymore and Green had a short relationship followed by an even shorter marriage. They eloped in July of 2001, and Green filed for divorce that December. Things seemed to end amicably, the divorce citing "irreconcilable differences." Overall, it seems that it boiled down to them being too young.
Perhaps they're ready to give it another try now that they're older! Here's the full interview between Drew Barrymore and her ex Tom Green. Do you think there's still a spark?

Calgary, AB - A tough final 20 minutes would do in the Heat men's basketball team on Friday night as they fell 85-73 to the hometown Mount Royal Cougars.
The Heat were led by Hafith Moallin who filled the stat sheet all game. He scored 15 points, came down with 10 rebounds, dished out five assists, and came away with three steals. Triston Matthews led the team in scoring with 18 points and also made an impact on the glass with seven rebounds.
MRU had five double-digit scorers, including LJ Hegwood who led the team in scoring with 20 points. Glen Yang also had a big game for MRU scoring 13 points and grabbing eight boards.
The two teams went back and forth to start the game, as neither team could build a lead or take dominant control. The Heat were able to take the lead in the first quarter, thanks to some hot outside shooting, that saw them hit five threes.The first 10 minutes ended with the largest lead of the game as the Heat took a 25-21 lead to end the first quarter.
Despite a 7-0 run from the Heat to start the second quarter, the Cougars responded by going right back on offense and cutting into their deficit. The two teams spent the majority of the first half trading runs and trying to figure out what they could get on the offensive end. After Philip Okanlawon hit a jump shot at the buzzer for the Heat, they took a 41-38 lead into halftime.
The back and forth action continued into the third quarter, as the Cougars were able to take the lead from the Heat and managed to slowly grow their lead over the course of the quarter.
The Cougars defense was the key of the third quarter as they held the Heat to only 16 points, seven of which came in the final two minutes of the quarter.
The fourth quarter saw both teams executing their offenses, as the Heat looked to cut into the MRU lead and the Cougars tried to put the game away.
Down the stretch, the Cougars' defense stepped up and kept the Heat from finding a way back into the game. Once the final buzzer had sounded, MRU had come away with their fourth victory of the season.

"A lag is happening" : A disconnect between YA writers and the readers the books are written for
By: Victoria Chen
Issue: 26 August 2019
Sexism/gender discrimination
Note from the editor (Joyce Chng): "Why is there an essay about YA? SFF isn't about YA? Give us back our SFF!" some of you demand indignantly. Many books out in the market are YA science fiction and fantasy, hence this essay by Victoria Chen has a proper place in Strange Horizons. She is offering an unique perspective—from an actual teen!—when it comes to reading YA science fiction and fantasy. Strange Horizons is open to global and diverse perspectives from all age groups. This means listening to and reading about teen voices. (This essay is written from an US-centric perspective, but many YA titles hail from the United States of America and have a huge impact on reading cultures around the world, including the United Kingdom and many parts of Southeast Asia ).
Young Adult (YA) is a relatively new genre. It only really reached the attention of the mainstream and kids it was supposed to be written for around 2010 with Twilight, The Hunger Games, and The Fault in Our Stars—some of the biggest names in YA even now.
I grew up with this—these movies being popular when I was in middle school and even a little bit of late elementary. A combination of both being too young and a lack of buzz around YA contributed to my lack of awareness before then. But at that age, I'd experience things like hearing high schoolers yell about "Team Edward" or "Team Jacob." Books with black spines on the bookshelf, owned by my mother. Talk of a tragic love story. Around 2014, YA began fading from true mainstream attention as the Divergent movies were released. But YA still existed, and many people I know ended up diving into the library stacks and picking up a YA book or two. Some never returned to reading them, some grew up to be voracious readers.
We grew up. I'm eighteen now, and one of the few still reading YA.
© Victoria Chen 2019
This is one of the key distinctions between current YA-reading teens and teens of the past. Modern YA-reading teens grew up in a cultural boom of YA books and movies. We had lots of content—that was deemed age-appropriate by publishing—to read too. There was less of a chance we'd dive into adult fiction unless we wanted adult fiction, because we had YA right there to keep us satisfied. Now it feels like a lag is happening. A disconnect between the writers and the people the books are written for. In an ideal world, YA books would be written for current teen readers, but they're not. Because it's not just Modern YA-reading teens who are reading YA.
Although YA was largely popular when I was ten to thirteen years old, it was also popular for older students and many adults, such as my mother who was around 30 years old at that time. So it's not unimaginable (and is true) that YA's mainstream presence didn't just reach kids and teens. It was popular with adults.
Fast forwarding eight years ahead, we're where we are now. A lot of adults read YA, and also some teens. Admittedly, there are more adults than teens because the adults range around ages twenty to fifty. The teens range from ages thirteen to seventeen. There's a natural tendency for more adults to be reading than teens because it's a greater age range.
These are flexible numbers. Something else that should be noted is how YA also holds a strong appeal for middle schoolers and older elementary schoolers, but tends to have a weaker appeal with actual teen readers. This ties into the concept of young readers "reading up," meaning they read things technically meant for an age older than them.
It's an odd phenomena for sure, but if we separate the readers into categories, there are middle schoolers (eleven-twelve years old), young teens (thirteen-fourteen years old), and teens with commonly used ages in YA stories (fifteen- years old).
Middle Grade (MG), of course, could satisfy the middle schoolers. But young teens are stuck in a sort of limbo, with a dearth of books with protagonists of their age. These ages are "too old" for middle grade novels, but "too young" for many YA stories. Yet, it's such a formative time in a young person's life. They're entering high school, which is such a huge and scary experience. They're going through bodily changes and really starting to think about relationships and college and life after schooling.
This doesn't mean they need more contemporary novels about a realistic "teenage experience"—although that would certainly help—but they need protagonists who they can relate to. Whether it's in fantasy or sci-fi or a swooping murder mystery, it's important for these young teens to find stories that give them this connection. At the minimum, it could mean more similarly aged people being the heroes of stories. Even better might be stories that validate a lot of the feelings associated with that age, such as helplessness or being immersed in a new environment or awkwardly attempting romance in the middle of life's chaos. Without this, these young teens tend to stop reading and seek out these protagonists and feelings elsewhere, like in teen rom-coms and other media.
"Lower YA" gives these teens protagonists who are more easy to relate to than protagonists in older YA stories. Of course some teens can relate to older YA protagonists, but this is also an area with untapped potential.
It's an area that's also taking away YA readers and buyers.
Talking long-term, if many young readers are dropping away from reading because of a lack of "Lower YA" or a solid link between MG and YA, there's a lot less guaranteeing that they'll return to read older YA. It's taking away an entire age group of readers from the genre—from buying books in the genre, from finding new authors based on ones they know, from asking for more, from showing support. This builds over the years as more and more potential avid YA readers leave for better coming-of-age stories in different media or platforms.
There are countless teens I know who used to read YA books, who picked up The Fault in Our Stars or even more obscure stories like The City of Bones as middle schoolers. But so few of them actively read YA now—they either skipped past it and began to read adult novels, or quit reading for pleasure. I know multiple people who read classics for fun but stopped reading YA. I know others who love Celeste Ng but stopped reading YA. And for each of these readers, there are dozens more who don't read.
It's a vicious cycle as adult consumers (who have the money) and older teens (who generally have more influence on social media than younger teens, as well as more freedom) ask in various ways for more older YA, which is what is popular with their ages. More older YA is produced, less younger YA is published, and young teens continue to be alienated.
Keep this cycle up for a decade or so, and YA will still be written for this exact group of people—who are now ten years older. The teens who would have been introduced to YA will continue to drop off.
It's not unreasonable to assume that this issue began when the YA market expanded. Authors and content creators began writing their stories for this market because that's what agents and publishers wanted, and it's where the money and audience was. Some might have taken adult manuscripts and adapted them to fit a YA audience. The way that YA began to boom inherently prompted people to write stories with teenaged protagonists—but this doesn't mean these stories were for teens.
What is published in YA is ultimately dependent on the publishers. But it is strongly influenced by the money and market—publishing is a business. Readers' money shows publishers and agents and other gate-keepers what trends are popular and what similar stories they should publish in hope that they will have equal or greater success, which is why YA tends to go through popular tropes and genres, such as dystopians re-tellings, vampire re-tellings or fairytale re-tellings.
All the young YA stories in the world could be written, but if they don't get an agent, don't get an editor, don't make it to pub day, then it doesn't matter. The responsibility doesn't just fall on one group of people, it falls all around. It falls on the publishers, the editors, the agents, and the people buying the books.
Adults—the largest and wealthiest group of buyers of YA—are influencing the market towards books with older appeal. Books like Six of Crows, which can be hard for a thirteen year old to relate to. A child of this age could certainly enjoy it. But how much can they really see themselves in Kaz Brekker, organising heists with near-flawless competence and masterminding their way out of problems with an adult-like surety of themselves?
Fantasies with protagonists of the same age can have drastically different results in appealing to a younger YA reader. Think about a sixteen year-old in a fantasy setting who has already had their coming-of-age, who is sure of themselves, who might have self-doubt and down moments, but is very focused on the physical happenings, not as much on the emotional. Then compare it to a sixteen year-old who is approaching a new environment for the first time, dealing with the emotional stress and weight of this experience, and trying their best to make it through.
It's not to say there's only one type of story that can appeal to a younger YA reader. But there's a serious dearth of ones that they can relate to, let alone ones that get a strong marketing push, and quite a few that are more geared to adult readers.
I've talked with some adults, and there's a common thread of reasons why they prefer YA fantasy to adult fantasy. Not only is it a place where diversity thrives publicly and is encouraged throughout the community (not to discredit the diversity present in adult fantasy, of course), but the themes are also interesting and compelling. The narration is accessible. The protagonists have flaws and worries and fears about being overly dramatic (a common complaint of many lower YA novels). It's not a genre crafted for exclusivity.
Adult fantasy probably doesn't want to appear exclusive. But at least for me and many YA readers, it feels far away, something hard to approach—denser, with more possibilities (and less warnings) for triggering content, with a narration style and an approach that is less individual-focused and more world-focused.
Crossover fantasies—adult fantasies with appeal to YA readers—have played a critical role in introducing me to the genre. Books like Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik or Empire of Sand by Tasha Suri. They might still have the adult fantasy style and vast world-building, yet the storylines are high-concept and appealing.
(It's also good to note that many adult fantasies with crossover appeal are mistaken as YA, in part due to sexism against authors who write many of these novels with this appeal.)
Yet these fantasies are few and far between, especially when providing accurate representation of marginalised groups. Whether it's because the right books aren't getting marketing, or that the stylistic changes in narration—as compared to narration from the late 1900s—have taken a long time to catch up to the genre, something is happening that many adult fantasy readers seek out fiction from YA instead. I'm certainly no expert on adult fiction, but adults are coming and finding something in YA, a category meant for teens.
Which means adults are putting their money into YA. And putting money into YA is influencing the YA market to publish more novels like the ones they show support for. More novels that don't necessarily appeal to younger YA readers are widening that gap where younger YA readers decide to stop reading in a progression, which restricts the number of consumers for YA and continues the vicious cycle.
Science-fiction and fantasy (SFF) within YA itself is an area where lower YA starts to get blurry. Fantasy is generally perceived as having older protagonists because, frequently, the situations are scarier, more intense, and with higher stakes than most teens truly experience. This doesn't mean that they can't relate, but it makes it harder to write compelling fiction that incorporates a similar coming-of-age story. It's definitely been done before, though. Julie C. Dao's Kingdom of the Blazing Phoenix is a great example of a YA SFF novel with lower YA appeal. The incorporation of the main character Jade's doubt of herself, her fears that she wouldn't be able to complete her quest, and her fish-out-of water feelings were what made the novel a great read and one that would appeal to a younger YA audience—if they could find it.
The stories do admittedly exist—but they're quiet and oftentimes mid-list titles that don't get big (or any) marketing push. It brings us all the way back to the issue of not just what stories are being written or published, but which ones are being marketed.
Marketing goes hand in hand with parental gate-keeping. It's what happened to me.
Because of a perceived image that YA was inappropriate for young teens (it's just vampire sex and lots of violence, right?), my parents barred me from reading YA for a decent number of my middle school years. Of course, I read it anyways, but a large portion of my reading time was diverted from YA because of its image created from Twilight and some of the more popular YA series that started its boom. And it leaves parents inclined to widen the gap from their side and turn their children away from YA.
This is certainly a minority of parents, but is still another thing we can't discount for its role in how the YA genre is isolating younger YA readers specifically. It's why booksellers and librarians, when talking with parents, have such an important job. Marketing and encouraging only a subset of books that is geared for older YA readers can affirm this "inappropriate" image in parents' minds and mark YA as something to be steered clear of for their children. Adults oftentimes have the final decision on what their children read, especially in early years.
Yet, this is not something we can blame on one specific group of people. We can't blame it on the adult fantasy genre or a lack of crossover fiction; we can't blame it on literary agents or editors or marketing or even just the readers. Lower YA has its distinct differences from upper YA, and it's in a unique position where it's shrinking in its abilities to reach its readers due to the market forces around it.
But the rise of teen movies that hold appeal to a lower YA audience—movies like To All the Boys I've Loved Before and Love, Simon—gives me hope that YA will have its boom again. That YA will close this gap between lower YA and upper YA. That it'll regain its mainstream appeal and bring more actual teens back into the genre and to help it thrive and tell publishing that more books like these should be published, too.
Publishing is a slow industry and it takes time to change. But given how YA is such a new genre, the possibilities for readers within it are already far greater than they were two decades ago. Although it's not perfect, it's also always evolving, and I hope to see change happen on all fronts.

Rudd Foundation Award includes local student
WICHITA – The Rudd Foundation is proud to announce its second class of Rudd Scholars who will each receive a four-year college scholarship to attend either Emporia State University, Fort Hays State University or Wichita State University. The scholarship covers all remaining tuition and fees, books and supplies, and room and board. The expected value for all 25 winners over four years is $1.4mil.
Among those receiving scholarships is Abbygail Rowden from Canton-Galva High School. She will be attending Emporia State University.
"We couldn't be more pleased with the exceptionally high-caliber, well-rounded students that were chosen for this year's Rudd Scholarship," said Peter Najera, President of the Rudd Foundation. "We expect them to maintain their grades and graduate in 4 years and in return they will earn their degree debt free."
This year, 15 students will be going to Wichita State, five will attend Emporia State, and five will take their scholarship to Fort Hays State. The Rudd Scholarship is earned through a competitive selection process that requires grades, test scores, essays, letters of recommendation, and for the 50 semifinalists a personal interview. The process opened in the Fall and drew hundreds of applications from all four corners of the state.
"Kansas high schools continue to produce very talented young men and women imbued with the Midwestern values of grit, determination and work ethic and we are excited to make an investment in them through a college education," said Najera. "These 25 recipients, in addition to the 19 previously selected, brings us to a total of 44 Rudd Scholars in college who will continue to support each other as they are groomed to strengthen the talent pipeline here in Kansas upon graduation."
In addition to living on campus and carrying a full load of classes towards their college degree, scholars will receive mentoring and success coaching to help them graduate in four years. They will also participate in many developmental activities outside the classroom, network with leaders in their future professions, build strong relationships among themselves, and serve to help the next generation of scholars through an active and connected alumni association after graduation.
"In just two more years we will have nearly 100 Rudd Scholars on campus learning from one another," said Najera, "and a few years after that they will all be networking with one another throughout the state as they continue on their trajectory of being positive contributors to our Kansas communities and society as a whole."
About the Rudd Scholarship
The Rudd Scholarship is a renewable, four-year program that covers any remaining cost of attendance after all other aid, grants, and scholarships are applied to a student's account.

We are now living in a post-truth world, apparently. Recent political events have led some to conjecture that truth is passé, that facts are debatable, and that fake news is to blame. Some of this analysis comes from people genuinely concerned by how public discourse has become fact-lite, but the rest seemingly comes from those struggling to make sense of how their side lost. They perhaps feel cheated of their birth-right as a result of the other side not playing fair. But the "truth" is surely that this has always been the case: in a battle between facts and perception, facts will always be on the losing side. Social media, as ever, may have exacerbated the situation but the elements that make up a post-truth society have always been with us.
The history of humankind is based on myth. In fact, one of the main distinguishers between our species and others is our ability to make sense of our existence by telling each other stories, as Yuval Noah Harari reminded us in Sapiens. Money doesn't exist: we invented it in order to create trade; nation states don't exist, but we use them for our identity. Myths and the telling of stories is part of our humanity. For thousands of years people have lived in societies where actual truth is only a bit-part player. Religious doctrines, which in nearly all instances began mostly as myth, tend to be full of literal, historical and, of course, scientific contradictions and inaccuracies. Yet for vast swathes of the world the facts of these religions are the basis of how people live their lives. Repressive political regimes have, again throughout history, used a wide interpretation of the word truth to keep their people in check. What constitutes propaganda often depends on which side of the curtain you're sitting. And, of course, it was Edward Bernays (nephew of Sigmund Freud) who was so impressed by the propaganda techniques that he'd seen during the war that he wanted to deploy them in peacetime. He thought, however, that propaganda sounded a rather dirty word; instead, he chose the phrase Public Relations.
The post-truth brigade also miss the lessons of behavioural science. All our decision-making is post-rationalised. We choose based on assumptions and emotions and then retrofit a rational explanation. Our free will is constrained by our neuro-chemistry and our social conditioning. Facts, such as they are, rarely come into it. Group think, for instance, can place unbearable demands on our understanding of what is true. There have been numerable psychological experiments where a group of "experts" get together to argue for something they know to be false leaving another in the dark arguing for what (they all know) is right. In all cases this experiment ends with the lone voice so doubting themselves in the face of such peer pressure that they "change their mind." Scarily this experiment has been tested with groups such as lawyers, doctors, and airline pilots, each time with the same effect. It can also be the sheer volume of facts that can be the problem. Such are the many permutations of options that there can never, for instance, be a factually correct data/phone tariff choice. Therefore, we either best guess, or use other surrogate decision-making substitutes. And, of course, there's our old friend confirmation bias, where we seek out information to support our pre-existing views. As Orwell said, the best books are those that tell you what you already know. Quid est veritas, you might say.
Brexit and Trump both provide other good lessons. There are those who may like to think that facts played a part, especially those incorrect facts deliberately deployed to scare. There are no facts, only interpretations, as Nietzsche reminded us. But really both these political events probably demonstrate two inter-related points. Firstly, the power of myth, or story-telling to give it it's nom du jour. In both cases, one side deployed stories and the other deployed logical facts. Soft (tall) stories beat hard facts. Secondly, communication will always be a poor proxy for behaviour. People listened less to the words and more to the body language. In times of difficulty we seek out people like us. We are, after all, a highly tribal species. People looked for those that they thought were on their side. They listened to them and they believed their myths. They ignored the others not because of what they said but because how they behaved demonstrated whether they were on their side, sharing values and aspirations. Fake news, lies, conspiracy theories…all these things were in the margin. People picked personalities that were part of their tribe, and in both cases it was the left behind attacking the elite.
So where does this leave us? Firstly, it does make us question the role of communication to influence. Perhaps we need to focus more on behaviour and attitude and less on words. Secondly, when we do focus on words we must tell stories rather than try and bludgeon people with facts. And thirdly, despite society's seemingly endless need for certainty perhaps we should occasionally admit that sometimes we really don't know the answer. There often is no black and white. The truth, as Oscar Wilde put it, is rarely pure and never simple. Seeing things from the other persons point of view and building for consensus rather than difference may be the only way forward, but blaming them for not understanding facts is unlikely to help.
Good stuff, Tim. Good call to remind us of the wise words of Harari. And if you've got a spare 2h46m, can I commend Adam Curtis' HyperNormalisation, currently only on iPlayer? An extraordinary ramble through the myths built by industry, governments, media, finance from 1975 to today.

{{employees | json}}

I have function makeEditable(employee,index) which contains single row value and index value. If i did data.isEditable = true; or this.employees[index].isEditable = true, then output is
click here to view output image
why all records are changing. as per concept only one record need to be change right. Please give me some solution

A: I think the problem is
   createEmployee(){
        console.log(this.employeeCreate)
        this.createEmployeeJson = this.employeeCreate;
        this.employeeCreate.isEditable = false;
        this.employees.push(this.employeeCreate);

where you don't create a new employee instance but always use this.employeeCreate, modify it and add it again and again to this.employees with each click.

A: I have fixed this issue by adding this code
this.employeeCreate = {};

in createEmployee function

Speech Given by Patricia Angelin at
The Philippine Consulate
Honouring Randy Gener, Senior Editor, American Theatre Magazine
Winner of the George Jean Nathan Award for Dramatic Criticism 2007-2008
Randy Gener has asked me to speak about George Jean Nathan. I am the Literary Executrix of his estate by virtue of being the surrogate daughter of his widow, the late actress Julie Haydon---notable in her own right for creating such roles as "Laura" in The Glass Menagerie and "Kitty Duval" in The Time of Your Life---who was always proudest of being called, "Mrs. George Jean Nathan."
Mr. Nathan is a tough guy to pin down. A definitive biography has yet to be written. Born a Valentine's Day baby, he 'came in' at midnight on February 14, 1882 in Fort Wayne, IN. As Julie would say if she were here, "A mere lad of 127 today!" His mother's people were Nixons and Nirdlingers---both theatrical business names. Indeed, so theatrically well-connected were they that Sarah Bernhardt herself visited the Nathan home, and gave young George Jean (always "George Jean," incidentally, partly because there is another author named George Nathan!) an amethyst ring from her own hand, which Nathan always wore on his little finger, and (most unfortunately as it seems to me) with which Mrs. Nathan buried him. His maternal great-grandfather established the first Hebrew congregation in Ft Wayne, Indiana.
The Nirdlinger/Nathan families were affluent and young George Jean was educated very well in both public school and by personal tutors in language and literature: French, German and Spanish---Spanish was his father's favorite language, and perhaps consequently George's bête noir, although he did learn to read it fluently. The family moved to Cleveland when the boy was 8, and he traveled frequently to Europe with his Father, attended Cornell---supposedly because of all the U.S. universities it most reminded him of Heidelberg, but perhaps more because his school friends were planning to attend. Whatever the real reason he made that schoolboy decision, Cornell was his Alma mater and his papers reside there today. He was already in Italy to study further at University of Bologna, when he was recalled to the United States by the sudden death of his Father soon after graduation from Cornell in 1904.
So young George had to go to work! He got a job as a cub reporter for James Gordon Bennet's The New York Herald. –you know, as in 'Herald Square'---and moved to New York, reporting on sports and current events . It was a very different world from our own, and yet…'Gangstas' are part of the culture now, and back then, well… the crime-connected playboy and playwright, Wilson Mizner, owned a hotel in the Broadway district so notoriously 'informal,' shall we say, that he put up a sign in the lobby reading,
"There are no house rules, but please don't smoke opium in the elevator."
There was at that time a real "he-man" cult in American literature (Brett Harte, Ambrose Bierce, Mark Twain, O Henry)---the London counterparts being represented by Rudyard Kipling. Eugene O' Neill went to sea as part of this zeitgeist. Overall, a very Victorian puritan moralism held sway. Ibsen and Strindberg were considered immoral, and therefore unfit for American audiences while Feydeau's and Hauptmann's works were "cleaned up" for American consumption. GJN was by nature refined---and he deplored the hypocrisy then rampant. An accomplished fencer, he fought, not with metaphorical fists, but with his pen as a sword.
He joined The Smart Set magazine in 1908, and went about turning it into a literary magazine. He preferred magazines to newspapers. Therein a critic had more space and could be more independent of thought…since magazines then didn't rely solely on advertising. With his partner, H.L. Mencken, in the pages of The Smart Set, and later as enfants terrible of the 1920's in the fabled American Mercury magazine, he worked diligently to bring the best of the Europeans and Americans to the notice of an unwilling public…attempting to change, inasmuch as possible, literary taste. He was the first to publish Eugene O'Neill, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Willa Cather, Somerset Maugham's short story, Miss Thompson, (which later became the basis for the play Rain, and then the musical 110 In the Shade) for example, and so many others. Before the Depression forced its demise, GJN founded the American Spectator magazine with fellow-editors Eugene O'Neill, Theodore Dreiser, James Branch Cabell and Jim Tully. In my personal opinion, he was one of the decisive voices pulling America, screaming and kicking, from the 19th century into the 20th century.
He was a tireless champion of Eugene O'Neill, especially, whose work he always saw in manuscript prior to production, and who dedicated his play, Ah, Wilderness! to Nathan; he banged the drum relentlessly for Sean O'Casey, the great Irish Dramatist; and for William Saroyan, with his idiosyncratic loveliness, and got The Glass Menagerie, by Tennessee Williams produced. Thomas Quinn Curtiss, Nathan protégé and the late Drama Critic of the International Herald Tribune in Paris, told me that literary critic Hunecker had said of Nathan that the young man should, "Go to Paris; there he would be appreciated, here he will merely bang his considerable brain against the box office." But he stayed to do battle here.
[Sean O'Casey's description of GJN from Rose and Crown (1952)]
[O'Casey] had contributed a few things to The American Spectator, a magazine that had told him there were minds in America that were flushed with courage, with wit, and an unreluctant will to show up political hypocrisy and intellectual sin. He knew something about Nathan's American Theatre by what the critic had written about it…. Here thought went back to the past, and here thought stretched forth to the future.
During all his life Sean had spoken to but four Americans… Going down the [ship's] gangway, he felt very lonely…. Not for long, though: in the Customs' shed, George Jean Nathan, the famous critic, [was] waiting for him with hands outstretched.
Here, Nathan stood looking at nothing, seeing everything, his luminous, wine-coloured eyes glancing at Sean, to see, maybe, if there was a chance of him being something more than a bore; and Sean thinking what in the name of God he would say to this famous critic now standing before him, a soft slouch hat on his finely formed head, set safely on a thick crop of dark hair, slightly tinged with grey here and there; a greatcoat, so full in the shoulders that it fell round him capewise, down below his knees, a curving wrinkle of humour, now in repose, trimming the corners of a full, sensuous, handsome mouth.
Nathan in his cape-coat…half a dream in the agitated crowd; almost motionless, his own wakefulness, maybe, a hope that this O'Casey will be something more than just bearable company, standing there with the surge of two thousand years of drama forming the kingdom of heaven within him.
At this point he was a celebrity in the old real sense of the word. Novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald, who admired him, patterned his character "Maury Noble" in The Beautiful and the Damned after some of his traits, ditto the Critic character in the movie with Bette Davis and Marilyn Monroe, All About Eve, and currently, with Guys and Dolls being revived one may mention that it is rumored that Guys And Dolls (Damon Runyon's Dream Street) slyly references Julie Haydon and GJN's long-running engagement (it took them 20 years to get married) in the characters of "Miss Adelaide" and "Nathan Detroit.."
Although he never wrote for The New York Times, he was the best-known and most highly paid critic of his time. The New York Drama Critics' Circle, still operational today, was his idea. He did his work so thoroughly that he is largely forgotten. The man wrote 45 books, for Vanity Fair, Esquire, and others, and---to honor the dying wish of his friend, Bill Curley, promised to write for the Hearst Newspaper Syndicate…Curley promptly recovered…and George Jean was stuck with writing for The New York Journal-American!
He instructed his wife to "Go to the colleges and universities; there lies the future of the American Theatre." He was, as in so many things theatrical, perfectly correct, foreseeing the rise of the Regional Theatre movement which created the need for American Theatre magazine.
He died April 8, 1958 in his rooms at the Royalton Hotel---which you can glimpse in the Life magazine article displayed on the easel in the reception area---having lived there for over 50 years.
[William Saroyan's valediction from his chapter, The Light Fantastic of George Jean Nathan in Sons Come & Go, Mothers Hang In Forever (1976)]
George Jean Nathan never has anything instructive to say about the writing of plays, but he knew more about the theatre than anybody else I have ever talked with. He passed along what he knew in a way that was easy for me to take or leave. And his talk both invited and compelled participation on my part, and on the part of anybody else who happened to be at the table.
And then all of a sudden he was sick, and it was terrible….. And then he died, and Broadway was diminished enough not to be thought of seriously again.
Did he really do anything for Broadway, for New York, for America, for the theatre, for art, for life?
Yes, he did. He dressed neatly and went out among the thieves and assassins. And…he…berated and scorned frauds of all categories. And he wrote. He was always writing. And everything he wrote had laughter in it. He was one of the most serious men in the living world, …but he refused to burden his writing, or his readers, with the agony of his unconverted and apparently indestructible soul…. There can't ever be anybody like him again.
Mr. Gener asked me to speak about GJN and not about him. However, allow me to say that I am grateful to Randy, for in reading his work in American Theatre, he has made me think about the Theatre again; to think about the Theater is to love the theatre. For me, they---thought and theatre--- flow into one another. This gives me insight and joy---delights and instructs in the Aristotelian sense. Randy Gener has just made me a better theatre-goer---and that is what GJN wanted! GB Shaw wrote to GJ Nathan once (on a postcard currently in my possession) that he considered Nathan to be, "Intelligent theatre-goer and writer number one: Atta-boy, keep it up!" Gener is a worthy recipient of the GJN Award, in the words of Sean O'Casey in an inscription to Nathan on the fly-leaf of his autobiographical book, Windfalls, "Comrade in the fight that Drama may have Life, and have it more abundantly." The same can be said to Randy Gener.

Why I screenshot
Three months ago, Sarah Hatter asked me a question that I had intended on answering then and there. In fact I did, but I had intended to expand upon these thoughts in a longer post:
Actually, I take shot primarily for my own purposes — research, learning and as a repository of interfaces that I can dig up later and imitate.
If I had to go out an search for a specific UI everytime I needed inspiration, I'd be a *much* slower designer than I already am! This way I can capture the best of the web *as* I come upon it, when the moment of inspiration hits.
I think this hints at what I said the other day about cleverness: she is the most clever who is the sum of everyone else's cleverness (Ok, I didn't say that exactly, but that's kind of what I was getting at). On top of that, it's rather inefficient to try to "innovate" your way to the next big thing when most "inventions" are actually evolutionary improvements to what's come before. As if social networking and Web 2.0 was new! I mean, the version got ticked up from one-point-oh right?
But that's not really what I'm saying. What I am saying is that I screenshot for history, for posterity, for education and erudition, for communication, to show off and, heck, for my own enjoyment. Call me twisted, but I really get off on novel approaches to old interfaces, clever disk images or fancy visualizations. Jacob Patton once called me the pornographer of Web 2.0. Nuff said.
Still, there is more to be said. For one thing, I don't screenshot everything that I see or come across. Just like my blog posts, I tend to like to write about things that are interesting to me, but that, if I'm going to share to the wider world, will probably be of some interest to other folks, one way or another. I never assume interest, but, y'know, I do try to make this stuff look good in the off chance that someone takes inspiration from something I've uploaded… as in the case of Andy Baio's work on the redesign of Upcoming. According to his own recollection of his design process, he relied more heavily on my shots of the Flickr-Yahoo Account merge than on any other online resource for figuring out how to implement the same for Upcoming. So yay? Go team!
This is the perfect example of why my screenshotting of design patterns can be really useful for clever people. When other smarter people have already solved problems, and start repeating the solutions or interface in consistent ways, it becomes a design cow path. These are most interesting to me because, as the patterns emerge, we start to develop a visual language for web applications that can be used in the place of verbal descriptors like "adding friends" or "upload interfaces". Rather than speak in the abstract, we can pull from an existing assortment of solutions from the wild that have already been proven in place, that you can interact with, and that you can evaluate on a case by case basis as to whether any given pattern is worth emulating in a new design.
I also screenshot as a way of in-between blogging, I guess. Y'know, like Twitter, Tumblr, Ma.gnolia, Plazes and Last.fm (among others) are all forms of in-between blogging. They're where I am in the absences between longer posts (such as this one) where I record what I'm up to, what I'm seeing and what's interesting to me. My Flickr screenshots are probably more often than not more interesting than what I have to say over here, and certainly less verbose. And, most significantly, the screenshot is the new photograph, allowing me to connect through images of what I see with other people who are able to see things the way I see them. Imagine life before the original camera, where everyone's depiction of one another was captured on canvas in oil paint; before screenshotting became a first class citizen on Flickr, we were living in a similarly blind world, cut off from these representations of our daily experience. But fortunately, as of a few months ago, that's no longer the case:
And, following off that last observation, I screenshot for posterity. Now that this internet thing has caught on and it's been around a bit, it's fun every now and then to reflect and go back to the days of the first bubble and take a look at what the "it" shine was back then (now it's the "floor" effect — formerly known as the "wet floor" effect — but back then maybe it was the java lake applet?). Which is all fine and well, but once you start poking around, you'll notice very quickly that the Wayback Machine is way incomplete. And while Google's cache is useful, it certainly tends care more about the textual content of a page rather than how it originally looked. And that's where screenshots could make up the difference, just as photographs of real life offer us a way to record the way things were, screenshots provide a mirror in time into the things we see on screen, into the interfaces that we interact with and the digital communications that we consume (check out this old view of the QuickSilver catalog compared with its current look or how about the Backpack preview or when Gmail stored less than 2GB of email?).
I don't tend to think about the historic value of things when I shoot them; I do tend to evaluate their interestingness or contribution to a certain series along a theme. And yet, I'm curious to see, over time, just what these screenshots will reveal about us, and about the path we took to get to where end up. For one thing, web application development has changed drastically from where it was just a few years ago and now, with the iPhone, we're embarking into wholly undiscovered territory (where it's unclear if screenshots will be possible). But these screenshots help us learn about ourselves, and help us see the pieces-parts of our everyday experience. If I screenshot for any reason, perhaps it is to collect these scraps of evidence to help me better understand and put order into the world around me, to tie things together visually, and to explore solutions that work and others that fail. Anyway, it's something I enjoy and will probably keep doing for the foreseeable future.

Yeah! I've frequently found myself digging through your flickr sets when I'm wireframing or designing… you've got quite the resource Chris. Sounds like I'm not the only one, and in fact I'm sure there are many of us – I've often thought there's probably a whole crowd of us flicking through your sets.
Shot on dude!
Calvin Yu says:
That's a great idea — sort of like code snippets for designers.
Shortly after reading this post, I found this:

Thought you would find it interesting, if you haven't seen it already.
Leisa Reichelt says:
me too – I think it's a fantastic resource and I thank you for it quietly on a regular basis!
for me it's the best way to get a quick handle on how people are doing things these days, from a design pattern perspective.
thanks Chris – as Andy said – shot on 😉

I too, thank you for all of the screenshots. It struck me yesterday while looking at your screenshots of Skitch and consequently the accompanying screencast, that this is the future of Mac UI that I'd REALLY like to see. The UI's for Skitch, DivX Player, Delicious Library, Disco, etc. all show a willingness to leap beyond the norm.
Sure in the case of Disco, the devs caught a lot of flack (some of it from me) for not creating an app that does something useful. Some of my thoughts on that still stand for me. However, what has changed is that because of the leap and bounds progress of UI's from these various devs, maybe the various devs that DO create useful apps can take cues from the aforementioned apps and bring some much needed excitement to the Mac platform.
Everyone's all ways saying that all the Mac needs to gain more mindshare and market dominance is that ONE killer app. Instead, I suggest that what the Mac platform needs is a whole cabel of apps using various iterations of these newer UI's so that devs (and Apple) can show the Mac as the platform for next generation, cutting edge applications. Imagine what the Mac landscape would look like if every app used effects like the DivX player or were nicely designed like Skitch and Delicious Library? Apps across the board employing ideas such as these would make the Mac platform more compelling and easier to engage. A lot of more traditional Mac devs would probably go on the warpath, but I think this is the evolutionary path that Mac devs should be traveling upon.

I'm so glad you do it, Chris. I find more awesome mac apps (and occasionally web apps) via your flickr stream than any other way.
Another point I'm sure is that some of the screen shots are quite hard to get to — they could be in the middle of an in-depth process, or have certain elements that are hard to set up.
Chris what do you think of the extension of this — video screencasts, of a similar nature to the screen dumps, with the primary objective being for capturing good interactive designs — stills often don't do it justice. These screencasts would be small, and very short — certainly no longer than 30s, and sometimes only 5s.
Chris Messina says:
@Julian — man, I'd love to do more screencasts… the idea of mini-flows is a good one, and I'll have to give it more thought.
My biggest issue with screencasts is how hard it is to get 30 seconds to look good… and then to compress it right for video. The beauty is screenshots is that they retain fidelity — so you can literally get pixel accuracy for later use and reuse…
Still, micro-screencasts is a cool idea!
Cris Pearson says:
I'm one of the creators of Skitch.
I also used Chris' great resource that he has put on flickr (of which most were posted with Skitch) while designing mySkitch.com!
I like the ying/yang feel of that 🙂
Viperteq – Glad you like Skitch. We are certainly getting flack about the Skitch look too. I think in this case though, it is more about style than function. And I don't disagree, though don't hate it like some. I did the graphics, but I'm not happy with them yet. I'll have to work with another designer to get it where I'm happy.
Teketen says:
I only do screenshots when something interesting/funny appear an can be deleted in a short period of time. 😛
André Ribeirinho says:
re the mini-flows, that would be really interesting. There just so little task driven sources of information out there.
Regarding the flickr sets I must say they were one of my main sources while working on wirerframes for my projecto – adegga.com. Thank you for putting them up.

Yep, thanks for the screenshots, you're my inspiration on the west coast.

I find it useful when I am responding to someone in a blog/facebook/myspace/… and it inspires and idea. The ability to grab the image, quickly write out what your idea/thought was and send it to the archive for later development. Chris, if you could shoot me a quick email where I could ask you some questions of this topic about several of the projects I am working on I would be grateful.

It was another deadly Memorial Day weekend in the state of Virginia this year. Reports from the Virginia State Police indicate there were at least seven fatal Virginia Car Accidents over this past weekend.
Data shows that a total of 620 crashes resulted in 141 people suffering serious injuries.
The staggering number of fatalities and injuries came despite law enforcement across the state establishing numerous sobriety checkpoints along highways. In fact, one of the fatal accidents occurred at a sobriety checkpoint. An article from The News & Advance stated the crash happened on Friday night along U.S. 460, near the Campbell and Bedford County line. A spokesman for the Virginia State Police, Sgt. Michael Bailey, explained a 25-year-old man was driving a Honda CRV along the highway and struck several guardrails before plowing into the rear of a pickup truck that had stopped at a sobriety checkpoint. The driver of the CRV was killed, while the driver and passenger of the truck were injured. The pair were taken to a local trauma center, where they were treated and released.
The Richmond Personal Injury Lawyers with Geoff McDonald & Associates understand how devastating a motor vehicle accident can be. The firm is here to help if you have been injured in an accident that wasn't your fault.
