Home From Dayton To ISIS: Reassessing Bosnia's Post-War Agreements
From Dayton To ISIS: Reassessing Bosnia's Post-War Agreements
byPierre Bussieres
Over the past year, evidence has been mounting of the presence of an Islamist stronghold in the middle of Europe. Last week, the German news source Der Spiegel wrote about the existence of virtual 'sharia villages' in Northern Bosnia, just a stone's throw away from the border of the European Union (EU). Even more disturbing, the black flag of the Islamic State (ISIS) was seen flying around in the village of Osve, which initiated a wave of reports over a new hotbed of jihadist in the Balkans.
This came after the International Business Times published a story on Islamic preachers buying land in Northern Bosnia. Between 2010 and 2015, two terrorist attacks on police stations in Bosnia, as well as the U.S. embassy in Sarajevo, demonstrated the capabilities possessed by small Wahhabi Islamic communities situated in isolated and remote villages in Northern Bosnia. When the UK-based Daily Mirror sent its investigators to the area, local residents told them they heard frequent gunshots coming from the woods.
The area, isolated and sparsely populated, is the perfect training ground for jihadists and has been for years. Bosnia's proximity to both Europe and Turkey makes it a key corridor for both refugees and jihadists. Not only is this location convenient to cross into the Schengen Zone, but there are also large stocks of weapons and ammunition left over from the Bosnian War.
Reassessing the ISIS Threat
Is this ISIS's new Trojan Horse in Europe? Some experts are drawing attention to the threat posed by these communities to European Security. In 2013, the Brussels-based International Crisis Group (ICG) released a report that referred to Islamism and nationalism as a 'dangerous tango' in Bosnia. This perhaps points to a much greater problem in the Balkans than the presence of well-organized Islamic preachers.
Despite the proportionately high number of Bosnian Muslims fighting in the ongoing civil war in Syria, the percentage of Islamic preachers on Bosnian soil, although unusually vocal, is still relatively small. IHS Jane's Intelligence Review, a publication focused on geopolitical analysis, dismissed claims of a strategic threat to Europe as a vast exaggeration of the Serbian and Croatian media in a bid to deflect general attention from pressing issues.
A closer look at these secluded radical villages in the north shows how the Dayton Accords effectively separated hundreds of communities, and institutionalized the ethnic divide in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The remote village ofOsve is also one of the numerous land swaps negotiated by the peace agreement. This remote and isolated village, which is located 100 kilometers away from Sarajevo, is one of the many so-called ISIS enclaves in Bosnia whose status was defined by the 'ethnic resettlement' goal of the Dayton Accords.
It is due to this ethnic divide that Islamic villages, such as those in Osve, Zena and Gornja Maoča, have been sheltered from government intervention. A police officer told Der Spiegel that this institutional fabric was a major obstacle to the conduct of ongoing investigations. With Bosnia divided into 10 cantons, each with its separate police structure, reaching Gornja Maoča, another Wahhabi enclave is a time-consuming process, as federal police must first report to their homologs in the region. There is "plenty of time," said the investigator, "for the radicals to pull in their IS flags."
This is but a glimpse of the scope of Bosnia's political paralysis. With 14 independent governments, law enforcement officers find themselves competing with 16 separate police forces, a major hindrance to intelligence sharing, surveillance and counter-terrorism operations.
This is a much bigger threat to Bosnian security than ISIS. That arms smugglers and terrorists find refuge in this institutional chaos should come as no surprise. At the moment, the CIA estimates that one-third of Bosnian non-governmental organizations (NGOs) employ people with ties to Al-Qaeda.
The Sources of Radicalism
The Wahhabi discourse, a radical branch of Islam pushed forth globally by Saudi Arabia, is the first benefactor of this burdensome system. The Saudi-funded King Fahd Mosque in Sarajevo, which answered to no one but the Saudi Embassy, was able to operate nearly independently for years before the Bosnian government acted.
The slow government response, despite numerous reports of calls for radicalization from the Mosque, can be explained by its wariness over ethnic issues, which systematically undermine any effort to build a civil society. An op-ed published inForeign Policy exemplified the systematic failure of government to come to terms with the post-Dayton realities. The Bosnian town of Mostar, whose municipal government has expired for three years, is infested with rats; the city has the highest rate of scabies in Bosnia. But the city, almost evenly divided between Muslim Bosniaks and Roman Catholic Croats, has been unable to hold an election.
This stalemate is one of the many examples of the political deadlock in Bosnia, leading authors Gerard Toal and Carl T. Dahlman to call Bosnia an 'ethno cultural prison.'Their recent book, Bosnia Remade: Ethnic Cleansing and Its Reversal provides a grim look at the Dayton Accords, arguing for a progressive institutional reform that would ultimately eliminate the ethnic divide.
To be fair, however imperfect the Dayton Accords are, they were primarily intended for ending the bloodshed, rather than creating a country capable of countering the Islamic State. But today, the same agreement, amidst a struggling economy and high unemployment, has made Bosnian citizens even more vulnerable to radicalism.

Harajuku Station Guide: Map, lines and attractions
Categories Tokyo, Trains & Transportation
Harajuku Station is located in the Shibuya area of Tokyo, Japan. It derives its name from Harajuku, a fashion and shopping district that lies to the east of the station. Harajuku district has been called "the center of Japan's most extreme teenage cultures and fashion styles." It draws youths not only from across Japan but from around the world.
Harajuku Station first opened in 1906 and the original structure offers a unique alpine facade. However, it has recently undergone renovations to include a state-of-the art new building. Today, it is the sixth-busiest station operated by JR East.
If your travels in Tokyo with the JR Pass will be taking you through Harajuku Station, you can use this handy travel guide to plan your trip to the district.

3 Yamanote Line and Metro Connections
4 Things to Do Near Harajuku Station
Harajuku Station Layout
The exterior of the original Harajuku Station building displays a unique European alpine style, complete with dark wooden beams contrasting a creamy background.
It can still be viewed from the outside, though it has now been closed because the wooden structure does not meet modern fire safety guidelines.
Although now situated in a new building, the new Harajuku Station is situated just down the street from the old structure, and basically maintains the same location.
It also basically maintains its original two entrances and exits. The station's main entrance leads out towards Omotesando, while a smaller entrance leads out to the Jingu Bridge (towards Meiji Jingu Shrine) and Yoyogi Park.

The new Harajuku Station located directly across from the With Harajuku shopping complex, which is still under construction and will include the first ikea in central Tokyo.
The new building is an impressively modern structure that lets in a huge amount of natural light and offers much more space for commuters across 2 floors.
The new station, which was built in time for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, comes complete with a NewDays store which sells Harajuku-themed merchandise. On the second floor, commuters are able to relax in the sleek Sarutahiko café, a spacious coffee house which offers great views over the surrounding district.
Yamanote Line and Metro Connections
Tokyo's circular Yamanote Loop Line is the major line served by Harajuku Station. Traveling clockwise on the JR Yamanote Line, Yoyogi and Shinjuku are the preceding stations and Shibuya is the following station. Access to the Yamanote Line is included with your Japan Rail Pass.
Harajuku Station is easy to reach from nearly any part of Tokyo. For example, you can travel from Asakusa to Harajuku by taking either the Ginza or Asakusa Lines before transferring to the Yamanote Line at Shibuya or Gotanda Stations, respectively.
Similarly, you can travel from Ginza to Harajuku by taking the Ginza Line to Shibuya Station, then transferring to the Yamanote Line. From Shinagawa to Harajuku, take the Yamanote Line clockwise. From Harajuku Station, you can travel counterclockwise to Shibuya by making just one stop on the Yamanote Line.
Harajuku Station is adjacent to the Meiji-Jingumae Station, which serves the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda and Fukutoshin Lines. You can reach these lines by walking from one station to the other. Also within walking distance is Omotesando Station, to the east of Omotesando. This station is served by the Hanzomon, Ginza, and Chiyoda Subway Lines.
Things to Do Near Harajuku Station
By taking the Takeshita Street Exit, you will find yourself immersed in Harajuku's famous fashion district and its boutiques and cafes. The most famous location is the street known as Takeshita Dori. There, you will find teen-centric shops and restaurants.
Many of these feature kawaii, or cute, items, gothic clothing, western brands, and otaku, or anime and manga themed items. The Daiso Harajuku 100 Yen Shop is also popular, featuring goods such as snacks, clothing, stationery, and kitchen items priced at about $1 US apiece.
While Harajuku is known for fashions catering to the young, there are plenty of shopping venues for adults as well as historic sites. South of Takeshita Dori is one such area, Omotsesando, with brand name stores and chic restaurants.
The shopping in this area is geared toward well to do, fashion-forward adults in their thirties and forties. Omotesando Hills, for example, is a six-story shopping center housing around 100 businesses. One of the largest Louis Vuitton stores in the world is also stationed on Omotesando.
If you're looking for the quiet side of Harajuku, it is waiting to be found. Meiji Jingu is a major shrine that shares a green space with Yoyogi Park. You can easily walk from the Station to Yoyogi Park in five to six minutes.
The Togo Shrine is also nearby. Art lovers can also enjoy the small Ota Memorial Museum of Art as well as the Nezu Museum and its accompanying traditional garden.

The National Space Technology Strategy was officially published following the Space Leadership Council meeting on Thursday 7th April 2011. You are now able to download the Strategy and the Technology Roadmaps.
The Space Innovation Growth Team through the Space Innovation and Growth Strategy (IGS) published an extensive and detailed report in 2010. The report was prepared by a team of experts selected from across industry, academia and central government and made a clear set of recommendations.
I had the pleasure to chair the Technologies, Capabilities and Facilities work stream whose work set a strong foundation for the third IGS recommendation which stated: "The UK Government and industry should establish a National Space Technology Strategy (NSTS), with a clearly identifiable budget separate and additional to ESA and research council budgets. This recommendation is a key building block in delivering the jobs and economic growth planned, and should be established quickly and funded properly. A National Space Technology Steering Group should be set up immediately to oversee the NSTS, chaired by industry, but with Government representation".
In August 2010 the National Space Technology Steering Group was created, which I now chair and has representation from Government departments and agencies, industry and academia. This Group with support from the Space Special Interest Group has pulled together this document, the National Space Technology Strategy with a suite of underpinning technology roadmaps.
It identifies the Strategy's objectives and introduces an initial set of 5 sector roadmaps building on the IGS data and conclusions updated through a series of roadmap workshops held with the UK space community through September 2010. The roadmaps are sector based, providing a clear vision and cohesive technology strategy for UK space activities. They bring together the institutional, commercial and scientific objectives and respond to the wider UK challenges of meeting society's needs.
During the next few months we intend to harmonise further the relationship between this, the UK Programme and other international activities as well as seeking to draw out cross-cutting themes. These approaches will maximise the UK's engagement and impact on the global space economy. I encourage you to read the summary and following document with a view to engaging at all levels to enable delivery of the National Space Technology Strategy.
The effort to create the document and roadmaps should not be underestimated and has involved extensive consultation across the UK space community over 6 months; I wish to thank the National Space Technology Steering Group, the Space Special Interest Group and the community at large for their time and contributions in delivering what follows.

Recent U.S. economic data reignited the risk-on sentiment for equities despite geopolitical concerns and ongoing discussions about U.S. tariff effects. Signs of a healthy domestic economy should encourage the Federal Reserve to continue normalizing rates this week. As a result, 10-year Treasury yields headed back toward 3.0%, while the U.S. dollar slowed its rapid appreciation.
Growth and momentum have paced the market's gains so far this year, but a sentiment shift may be taking shape. As is typical in an economic cycle's final phase, growth has been outperforming value by a wide margin, primarily driven by Technology. Capital expenditures accelerated in the first quarter, with Technology, Consumer Discretionary, Energy, and Industrials accounting for more than 80% of the increase. As the current environment evolves, rising rates and softer global growth could support a future shift toward Energy, Financials, and Materials.
Recent manufacturing and sentiment data showed slower growth in the euro zone. This suggests that the European Central Bank may extend its current quantitative easing program, especially given developments in Italy. Meanwhile, emerging markets continue to face headwinds, driven by the backdrop of slower global growth and currency volatility in Brazil, Mexico, and Turkey.
Italy's populist parties have recently been voted into power and have formed a coalition government. The anti-euro Five Star Party and anti-immigration League Party have joined forces and will tackle the daunting task of addressing Italy's severe fiscal and social challenges. The problem will be accomplishing these tasks while adhering to European Union (EU) deficit constraints.
One recent proposal espoused the benefits of leaving the EU, a move that would give Italy total fiscal and monetary policy control. However, abandoning the euro would lead to a massive devaluation of any new Italian currency, and cause a potential restructuring of Italy's debt. Recent polls suggest a majority of Italians want to stay in the EU, making a departure unlikely. In fact, the greater risk may be in posturing by the new government as it attempts to extract concessions from the EU.
Stocks in Italy dropped 13% in recent weeks amid the political upheaval, while yields on 10-year sovereign bonds nearly doubled. As they often do, U.S. Treasuries served as safe-havens, pushing yields lower. Though Italian markets are normalizing, 10-year U.S. Treasury yields remain below 3%. The Fed will likely raise rates this week despite the turmoil, although it's possible that future rate hikes could be impacted by any European political fallout.

'Correct proportions and futuristic technologies' is the Audi's point of taking on a precisely-functional sports car. Acknowledging the statement the German innovator displays its new prominent member Audi R8. The car is a mid-engine, 2-seater sports car which uses the company's soul Quattro permanent all-wheel drive system. The car is based on the Lamborghini Gallardo platform and the Audi Space Frame principle.
Slippery aerodynamics and particularly streamlined body of the car together hints its racing car spirit.
The large aluminium air vents, radiator grille and the functional and expressive side vents acts as efficient air arrests.
The precisely curved bonnet design and the sharp matrix LED headlights buys the car an appealing front look.
The Spyder's convertible feature is added by the prolonged fabric roof that merges to form two thin fins at the rear.
The handling of the car is further made precise by the light-weight cast aluminium 18-inch wheels.
The furious dynamic capabilities of the car are hinted in its precise exteriors dimensioning, reading- 4440 mm x 1929 mm x 1252 mm (L x W x H) and a long and stable wheelbase of 2650 mm.
What to opt for: The furious sports car surely features an enraged dynamism and the exterior parts (headlamps, bumper, windshield, etc) must be insured. The car features expensive list of extra parts and so total parts insurance is generally suggested.
Intuitiveness and responsiveness buys authority with the leather-wrapped multifunctional steering wheel with shift paddles.
Authority is extended with the Audi Parking system plus with rear view camera and navigation.
Comfort is added by the heated, low, electrically adjustable sports seats with lumbar support, automatic air-conditioning and the crystal-clear Bang & Olufsen sound system.
Tense boot space of 100 litres is just sufficient to carry your basic amenities.
What to opt for: The luxury adding interior features along with the high-end safety features (ABS, ECS, engine immobilizer) do require a passenger and driver cover. However, the theft insurance is not necessary.
The sporty characteristics and the dynamic performance of the car though unique, it has a tough competition with the hybrid sporty BMW i8. The high price tag and maintenance cost of the sports car raises a need of complete invoice cover.

DigitalOcean Accidently Leaks Customer Data
DigitalOcean, a popular web-hosting platform, DigitalOcean provides developers cloud services that help to deploy and scale applications that run simultaneously on multiple computers. As of January 2018, DigitalOcean was the third-largest hosting company in the world in terms of web-facing computers.
Recently, Digital Ocean has started informing customers about a data leak that "unintentionally" exposed customer's personal data online.
What is the reason for the data leakage?
According to an email the company is currently sending out, the security leak occurred due to an internal DigitalOcean document that was mistakenly left accessible online.
Digital Ocean says the document contained several types of user account details.
This included personally identifiable information such as customer email addresses and their respective Digital Ocean usernames, but also account technical details such as the number of droplets (servers) owned by the customer, the user's bandwidth usage, support or sales communications notes, and the amount of money the customer paid during calendar year 2018.
Digital Ocean said that the internal document was accessed at least 15 times while it was left available online.
The web hosting provider said "it did not see any unauthorized access to impacted customers' servers as a result of this incident. Our community is built on trust, so we are taking steps to make sure this doesn't happen again".
Digital Ocean said the file contained details for less than 1% of the company's total customer base.
"We will be educating our employees on protecting customer data, establishing new procedures to alert us of potential exposures in a timelier manner, and making configuration changes to prevent future data exposure."
A copy of the email Digital Ocean has been sending customers today is available below.
To be noted:
This specific breach neither indicates the DigitalOcean website was compromised, nor the customers' login credentials were leaked to the attackers.
If you have an account with the hosting service, you don't have to rush into changing your password.
Service also offers two-factor authentication that every user must enable to add an extra layer of security to their accounts.
Less than 1% of the customer base was impacted, and the only PII (Personal Identifiable Information) included in the file was account name and email address.

Microphones from Mojave Audio and Royer Labs Assume Vital Roles in the 92nd Academy Awards
by mojaveaudio on March 11, 2020 with No Comments
Using models from both companies,
Tommy and Danny Vicari deploy a wide range of mics
On Sunday, February 9th, the 92nd Academy Awards took place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. As one would expect for an event of this stature, music played a vital role. In addition to the live orchestra performances during the actual show, there was also a significant amount of effort that went into the show in the form of pre-records. For both the pre-records and live event, microphones from Mojave Audio and Royer Labs assumed a vital role in this endeavor.
Emmy® and Grammy® award-winning recording engineer, scoring mixer, and record producer Tommy Vicari, working in conjunction with his brother Danny Vicari, owner of LAFX Studio and Rentals in addition to his work as a live sound engineer, were tasked with audio responsibilities for this year's show. Both for the pre-records and the live event, the Vicaris used a healthy assortment of microphones from both companies. The Mojave Audio microphone assortment included MA-101, MA-300, and MA-1000 microphones while the Royer Labs mics included the R-121, R-1122V, and SF-24V models.
"The pre-records for this year's show took place at Capitol Studios in Hollywood," Danny reports. "As part of this effort, we used three Royer R-122 MKII ribbon mics at the front of the bell to capture French Horns, three R-121 ribbons on trumpets, three R-122v mics for the trombones, and two SF-24V stereo ribbons—one each for brass and woodwinds. On the Mojave side of the equation, we used five MA-300s and two MA-100s. The MA-300s handled the saxophones while the MA-100s were used to capture a wide range of percussion instruments. We also used some MA-101s to mic flute, piccolo, and some additional woodwind instruments."
For the live show, the combination of Royer and Mojave mics was very similar. According to Danny, "We used two Mojave Audio MA-1000s for overheads on the drums. With their ability to handle the sharp attack transients characteristic of percussion instruments, the MA-1000s were the ideal choice. We also deployed Mojave MA-101 mics on the saxophones. On the Royer side, three R-122 MKII mics captured the trombones, three R-121s captured the trumpets, while another three R-122 MKII ribbons were used on the three French Horns.
"By largely using the same combination of microphones both on the pre-records and for the live show, we were much better positioned to have greater consistency of the overall sound," Danny explained. "Both the Mojave and the Royer mics are really exceptional. They handle a wide range of dynamic contrast, they're very adept at handling high SPLs, and the fact that they can be used on a variety of instruments with basically the same output level is a huge advantage. In summary, the build quality, the reliability, and their sound quality are remarkable."
When queried about the characteristics of the Mojave Audio and Royer Labs mics that made them so well-suited for the Academy Awards show, Tommy offered the following thoughts, "When you're recording various styles of music, including classical, pop, big band, and rock, you really need microphones that can capture and handle both extremely loud music and very soft music. With both Royer and Mojave mics, the sound quality remains remarkably consistent, no matter the dynamic range."
With the 92nd Academy Awards completed, the Vicaris offered these final comments on their Mojave Audio / Royer Labs experience. "As is the case with any project, we do use microphones from other equipment manufacturers, but it's important to note that Mojave and Royer are a major part of my toolbox," Danny said." I never do a project without them." Tommy echoed his brother's enthusiasm, "I always strive for perfection. I may never achieve it, but it keeps me constantly striving to make the show better—and the microphones from Royer and Mojave are a major part of that effort."

Concerned Christians Canada was one of Craig Chandler's creations … until he sold it to its current owner when the political heat got a little to much.
To nobody's surprise, according to CCC's Jim Blake, Ric McIver has been done a grave injustice by the National Post (and other media outlets) for talking about his participation in Pawlowski's "March for Christ" event.
Well yes, I'm sure Pawlowski likes to make a big show of all the "good" he is doing. That is irrelevant here. The issue is not even Pawlowski's event, or even the philosophical stance that Pawlowskis (or Blake's) understanding of Christianity take with respect to homosexuality as it is about the sincerity of McIver's damage control apology.
Nobody is "persecuting" McIver for his beliefs here. Calling out hypocrisy, perhaps. Disingenuity? Definitely.
Pawlowski is not just a "homeless advocate". He is a man who wants to ram his religiosity down everybody's throat … and does so regularly. Don't believe as he does? You're on the wrong side of his god. He's well known for preaching against homosexuals, and we're supposed to ignore that because he helps the homeless? Uh no. It doesn't work that way.
Where McIver is concerned, the real question isn't just his association which Street Church and March for Jesus, but rather what are his sincere views. Does he believe that GLBT people are lesser citizens? Does he support Pawlowski's anti-abortion, anti-divorce stances? Where does McIver stand?
Well, Mr. Blake. Let me bring a few more details of interpreting the Constitution to your attention. First of all, the premise statement about the "supremacy of God" is in the preamble, and mysteriously does not stipulate which particular notion of God is held to be "supreme", nor does any other part of the Constitution of this country stipulate any particular faith as having supremacy. This is important, especially in a society where there are so many faiths practiced (and no small number of people who consciously choose not to practice any religion at all).
Further, Mr. Blake fails to understand one additional point. Nothing in those freedoms shields anyone from the consequences of their exercise of those rights. Mr. McIver is absolutely free to associate with Mr. Pawlowski's church, or whatever else he wishes. Nobody will charge him with anything for it.
That said, Mr. McIver is a politician – a public figure – and one who is angling to become this province's next premier, and possibly the premier for the next four years after an expected 2016 election. Mr. Pawlowski's preachings may well carry with it a price when it is put in front of the electorate. Mr. McIver knew that when he started participating in Street Church events, and he knows it now. When it comes to political figures, the public has a right to know what a candidate believes, and whether or not he would act on those beliefs legislatively. McIver now has the unfortunately difficult job of convincing a public that has come to see homophobia as electoral poison that his association with Street Church doesn't influence his legislative beliefs.

Buhari's New Finance Bill Targets Facebook, Twitter, Others
Wednesday, December 08, 2021 at 2:59 PM by Pascal Oparada
President Muhammadu Buhari is introducing a new bill that will mandate foreign organisations not in Nigeria but making profits here to pay taxes
Many believe the new bill is targeted at tech companies like Twitter and Facebook who have no offices in Nigeria but make money from it
Twitter, Facebook and other companies not registered or operating in Nigeria have been kicking against paying taxes in the country
Your support matters. Sustain independent journalism in Nigeria – contribute to Legit.ng.
A new Finance Bill being introduced by Nigeria's president, Muhammadu Buhari, seeks to tax companies making profits in Nigeria but not domiciled in the country.
On Tuesday, December 7, the Senate received the Finance Bill 2021 which was transmitted by President Muhammadu Buhari to the National Assembly for consideration, according to a report by TheNiche.

Media aide to the Senate president, Ezrel Tabiawo, said the request by Buhari asking for the passage into law came in a letter that came with the bill.
Insecurity: Go after sponsors of killers, stop accusing us, Northeast Youths tell Buhari
The president's letter explained that the request for passage of the bill was pursuant to the provisions of Section 58 and 39 of the Constitution of Nigeria of 1999 as amended.
Do you have a groundbreaking story you would like us to publish? Please reach us through info@corp.legit.ng!
Facebook, Twitter not the only target
According to Buhari, the bill would expedite International Tax Reforms to enhance the taxation on non-resident individuals and companies that make a profit from Nigeria.
The bill will see the likes of Facebook, Twitter and others paying taxes to the federal government.
One of the bones of contention between the Nigerian government and Twitter is that the bird app set up an office in Nigeria, employ Nigerians and pay taxes to the government.
If the new bill scales through, Facebook and other international tech firms making huge money from the country will pay taxes to the Nigerian government irrespective of where they are domiciled in the world.

What Osinbajo said
Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that Nigeria is set to utilize its legal provisions that empower the federal government to collect taxes on profits made in the country by global technology and digital firms not based in the country, but with a significant economic presence here.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, hinted at these issues and others while interacting with a delegation of the Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria (CITN) led by its president, Adesina Adedayo, who visited him at the Presidential Villa on Friday, June 25.
A statement sent to Legit.ng by Osinbajo's spokesman, Laolu Akande, quoted the vice president as saying:

Q: Objective-C How to play videos on MPMoviePlayerController or AVPlayer instantly, without delay? I have tried playing 500 KB videos on AVPlayer and MPMoviePlayerController, and they both have a slightly annoying delay. AVPlayer and MPMoviePlayerController both display a black screen for 2-3 seconds, and then it starts the video. Thats really annoying, how come it takes so long for the video to start? How can I fix it?
 //Movie Player Code
_moviePlayerVC = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:video];
    _moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.view.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
    _moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.view.multipleTouchEnabled = YES;
    _moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.repeatMode = MPMovieRepeatModeOne;
    _moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleNone;
    _moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.scalingMode = MPMovieScalingModeFill;
    _moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer.view.frame = self.frame;
    [_moviePlayerVC.moviePlayer setShouldAutoplay:YES];
    _moviePlayerVC.view.frame = self.frame;

    [self addSubview:_moviePlayerVC.view];

//AVPlayer Code
AVAsset *asset = [AVAsset assetWithURL:video];
    AVPlayerItem *item = [[AVPlayerItem alloc] initWithAsset:asset];
    _player = [[AVPlayer alloc] initWithPlayerItem:item];
    _player.actionAtItemEnd = AVPlayerActionAtItemEndNone;
    AVPlayerLayer *layer = [AVPlayerLayer playerLayerWithPlayer:_player];
    layer.frame = self.frame;
    layer.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor].CGColor;
    [layer setVideoGravity:AVLayerVideoGravityResizeAspectFill];

A: You could preload an AVPlayer and observe its status. Once it changes AVPlayerStatusReadyToPlay you should be able to start playback without any delay.

Abstract Introduction For efficient metastatic dissemination, tumor cells form invadopodia to degrade and move through three-dimensional extracellular matrix. However, little is known about the conditions that favor invadopodia formation. Here, we investigated the effect of β-adrenoceptor signaling - which allows cells to respond to stress neurotransmitters - on the formation of invadopodia and examined the effect on tumor cell invasion. Methods To characterize the molecular and cellular mechanisms of β-adrenergic signaling on the invasive properties of breast cancer cells, we used functional cellular assays to quantify invadopodia formation and to evaluate cell invasion in two-dimensional and three-dimensional environments. The functional significance of β-adrenergic regulation of invadopodia was investigated in an orthotopic mouse model of spontaneous breast cancer metastasis. Results β-adrenoceptor activation increased the frequency of invadopodia-positive tumor cells and the number of invadopodia per cell. The effects were selectively mediated by the β2-adrenoceptor subtype, which signaled through the canonical Src pathway to regulate invadopodia formation. Increased invadopodia occurred at the expense of focal adhesion formation, resulting in a switch to increased tumor cell invasion through three-dimensional extracellular matrix. β2-adrenoceptor signaling increased invasion of tumor cells from explanted primary tumors through surrounding extracellular matrix, suggesting a possible mechanism for the observed increased spontaneous tumor cell dissemination in vivo. Selective antagonism of β2-adrenoceptors blocked invadopodia formation, suggesting a pharmacological strategy to prevent tumor cell dissemination. Conclusion These findings provide insight into conditions that control tumor cell invasion by identifying signaling through β2-adrenoceptors as a regulator of invadopodia formation. These findings suggest novel pharmacological strategies for intervention, by using β-blockers to target β2-adrenoceptors to limit tumor cell dissemination and metastasis.

RUSH: I don't know if you've heard this or not, but last week, Fox News became the most-watched cable channel of all of them throughout all of last week, including the USA Network. In fact, Fox was the number one, most viewed cable network of all them, throughout all of last week — not just cable news. All of cable. During the Boston bombings and the subsequent manhunt, Fox averaged 2.874 million viewers during primetime, 1.77 million in total day.
Now, is that not fascinating? To become number one in all of cable you don't even need three million viewers, that's how fractured it is. That's how many cable networks there are divvying up the American audience, 2.874 million, and 1.77 million in total day. CNN was in third place, 1.985 million in primetime, 1.3 million in the daytime. MSNBC dropped off the radar. They ended up in 19th place, fewer than one million viewers tuned in in primetime. Fewer than 600,000 in total day.
Now, this is big for one reason. CNN used to be it. Now, CNN benefited from being the only cable news network for a while. As recently as 1988, when this program started, the only cable news network was CNN. That was it, CNN plus the networks and newspapers, that was it, when this program started. Fox didn't come along until 1996. CNN used to be the go-to network when any disaster or major breaking news occurred. And even as Fox has overtaken CNN in recent years, that dynamic not all that long ago still held when there were major breaking news, like the war, CNN would get the viewers. They don't anymore.
Left-wing liberal cable news networks are dying, and how are they dealing with it? Becoming more left-wing and liberal. They're becoming more radical, and they're becoming — I'll tell you, folks, it dovetails with my often recently expressed theory that there isn't any news anymore, that every time you turn on cable TV, all you're getting is the Democrat Party agenda. You know what the primary focus of MSNBC and CNN is? In addition to promoting and expanding the Obama agenda, which happens to be the Democrat Party agenda, but believe me, it's Obama driving it with these networks, the reason they exist and the narrative of every story they put out is how conservatives are wrong and how Republicans are wrong, how you can't agree with them and how they're bad, how they're rotten. Those are the two narratives that make up CNN and MSNBC. And the cable viewing public, well, all of cable, but the news viewing public is not interested.
Now, some people are hearing this and are saying, "Well, Rush, it ain't all that hot because Fox ain't all that conservative anymore." And I understand that. People remark to me, "You know, it's not what it was." And they give me examples, all the liberal commentators that happen to show up there and people say, "The only real conservative on that network anymore is Hannity." Which, in a strict sense, may be true. But the one thing still that Fox does, Fox reports news. During the day, Fox reports news. Now, at night Fox News is talk radio on television, but during the day they report news. And they cover things the other networks don't cover.
If you're at CNN today and you see this or you're at MSNBC, what's the reaction, what do these people do? They're gonna double down with more liberalism. They're gonna double down with more radicalism. They're gonna tell people the audience is stupid. They're gonna tell themselves that the audience doesn't understand them, that they're not sophisticated enough. And they're gonna wear this low ratings, no ratings, as a badge of honor.
At the White House Correspondents Dinner, I guarantee you, which is Saturday night, at the White House Correspondents Dinner, CNN and MSNBC will be praised and called out and singled out for the great work that they're doing. Fox News will be laughed at, impugned, made fun of, while Fox News executives and staff are there. That's why I don't go to the thing anymore. You know, politics is show biz for the ugly, and I gave up on this thing 20 years ago, maybe even longer. Why go sit in a room of 3,000 people that don't like you?
It wouldn't put it in their face if I showed up. At any rate, I just wanted to point this out. But stop and think here, folks, 2.8 million viewers primetime wins over every cable network: HBO, USA, Food Network, E! Entertainment, TMZ, you name it.
Well, I'm just sitting here thinking about that, but I don't want to go there. Because people would then say that I'm bragging, that I bring it up for that. I'm not gonna compare my audience ratings to this. It's two different things, two different balls of wax. Anyway, congratulations to the people at Fox. It's a big deal because the really important thing about this is what they have done with CNN. Folks, CNN used to own it. A story like last week, they used to own it, but now CNN — John King is apologizing. John King said it was embarrassing what happened last week 'cause they ran with whatever stuff they were told. They ran with all this stuff that turned out not to be true. Well, let me find the number here. Hang on just a second. It's audio sound bite number 17. John King, and this was on the radio in Washington this morning. Here's what he said.
KING: When you do something like this, it's embarrassing. One thing you do have to do is look straight in the camera and say, "We were wrong." In this case we had two reputable sourses, one of mine and one of a colleagues of mine who have been reliable in the past and who simply had bad information. And we went with it, and we had to correct it. The best way to deal with it is to look people in the eye and say, "We make a mistake, here's how we make the mistake," and then move on.
RUSH: Right. Now, if last week was embarrassing, then every week must be, because last week was not that out of the ordinary. I mean, last week might have been a little different in the focused importance of the news, but getting things wrong? Go back to Newtown, go back to Columbine. I mean, these people, after the Aurora, Colorado, movie theater shooting, what did they do? Tea Party. They are alienating statistically half of the country that's a potential viewing audience, they're alienating. And apologizing, I don't know that that's gonna count.
Anyway, it isn't news anymore and that's where this is all falling apart. And I tell you, what I take from this, we have not reached the tipping point where the vast majority of people in this country are liberal. We've not reached it. We are still being governed by a minority, and I think it's a pretty small minority, actually, in real terms. And it's governing against the will of the people in this country. The percentage of thinking in this country, the radically left liberal, is not the majority. It's made to look that way. It's made to appear that way. But these audience numbers blow that to smithereens.

Q: Email validation using JavaScript failing at if statment As part of a Frontend Mentor challenge, I am creating a simple email validation for a subscription landing page. It simply checks whether the email field is empty, if so, it throws an error message. Another error message is shown if the user enters an incorrect email address.
I've created a function called checkInputs() which contains a conditional else if statement
When testing on live server, the first condition works fine, when I leave the email field empty, however, the second condition doesn't even run, nor does the third.
I've included the full in case it's anything else throwing the whole function off. I tested the function isEmail() which checks whether the email is valid, and it works fine for me.

const form = document.getElementById('form');
const email = document.getElementById('email');

form.addEventListener('submit', (e) => {
  e.preventDefault();
  checkInputs();
})

function checkInputs() {
  const emailValue = email.value;
  const emptyEmail = emailValue === '';
  const invalidEmail = !isEmail(emailValue);

  if (emptyEmail) {
    setErrorFor(email, 'Oops! Please add your email');
  } else if (invalidEmail) {
    setErrorFor(email, 'Oops! Please check your email');
  } else {
    setSuccessFor(emailValue);
  }
};

function setErrorFor(input, message) {
  const formGroup = input.parentElement;
  const small = formGroup.querySelector('small');
  formGroup.className = 'form-group error';
  small.innerHTML = message;
}

function setSuccessFor(input) {
  const formGroup = input.parentElement;
  formGroup.className = 'form-group success';

You are not passing a form element

*

*Change setSuccessFor(email);

*I advise to also change formGroup.classList.add('success');

*Perhaps remove the success before testing, although it is currently not possible to add a wrong email due the the HTML5 validation

A: This should fix it for you:
const emptyEmail = emailValue === '';

to
const emptyEmail = (emailValue) ? true : false;

Also you have an error in one of your functions:
function setErrorFor(input, message) {
    const formGroup = input.parentElement;
    const small = formGroup.querySelector('small');
    formGroup.className = 'form-group error';
    small.innerHTML = message;

Should be (closing bracket)
function setErrorFor(input, message) {
    const formGroup = input.parentElement;
    const small = formGroup.querySelector('small');
    formGroup.className = 'form-group error';
    small.innerHTML = message;
}

A: const emptyEmail = emailValue ? true : false;

Jimi Hendrix's Personal Items Arrive at the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian
Personal items belonging to Jimi Hendrix arrived today accompanied by his sister, Janie Hendrix. The items include a colorful patchwork full-length leather coat, a leather necklace and a leather pouch. These are among the very few of the rock legend's possessions sent home to his family from his apartment in New York after he died on Sept. 18, 1970.
Though Hendrix's father asked that all of his son's belongings be sent home to Seattle, including a hundred guitars, scant few arrived. The coat was an obvious favorite of Hendrix's, as seen from the deep creases around the elbows, dark demarcation sweat lines and well-worn hem; until today, the coat has never been displayed nor have photos of it been published.

Some Cool Demoscene Stuff
Here are some of my favorite demoscene products with a short review of each.
Matt Current (The Shitfaced Clowns/Breakpoint 2007)
You could say Matt Current features two demos in one. The first part features 3D stuff very familiar to anyone who has seen mid-1990s demos and the second half is a complete change in style with one of the best tracks I have heard in a demo (with lyrics), effects with more focus on the presentation than the technology and hip hop. I love the short flashes of video captured footage of skateboarders in synch with the music and the 2D parallax field of graffiti.
Atrium (TBC & Loonies/Breakpoint 2008)
4KB/PC/Win
There are a lot of very impressive 4K intros that have come out in the last few years but this one caught my attention. It is funny how the pacing — the single most important thing outside the content itself — is much better than of those in many multi-megabyte demos. The growing building effect also is pretty much equal to the 2006 Assembly demo by Fairlight shown below.
The Secret Life of Mr. Black (Orange/Assembly 1997)
PC/DOS
Orange demos have a very distinct style. Even simple things like fade ins and fade outs are tweaked, mainstream effects are avoided (notice the complete lack of Phong shaded polys and other common stuff) and the demo generally has a weird atmosphere (just listen to the soundtrack).
Inside (CNCD/The Gathering 1996)
CNCD's Inside has one of my favorite soundtracks, the fat track suits the demo well. While some of the 3D stuff in Inside is a bit out of place (how do you segue from rappers to spaceships is beyond me) and looks dated, the remainder of the effects still look absolutely fantastic.
And now for the best of the bunch…
9 Fingers (Spaceballs/The Party 1993)
Take a look at Spaceballs' 9 Fingers and think about the fact it was done on the Amiga and that it features streaming video of sorts. The demo came on two 800 KB floppies and only lasts for less than three minutes, which was unheard of (well, Spaceballs already did the same with State of the Art but I bet you know what I mean). Ironically, the demo takes far more data when converted to an inferior quality Youtube video.
The captured video footage is converted into a polygon mesh which allows for good compression ratio (you need to store only the mesh points and the polygon color). Of course, the more important thing is that it allows sufficiently fast decoding the video and other effects such as the rotating cube with "texture mapping". The Atari ST demo shown below employs a similar trick as it streams the precalculated polygon data (or rather the horizontal line data) from disk.
You might also want to take a look at the making of 9 Fingers.

Great post, komet. My favorite has to be Track One (the Fairlight demo). Thought the others may be equally impressive technologically (for their time), the atmosphere in T1 blew me away. The music is great, too.
I had a interest in the demo scene about 7-10 years back (not sure), when I started tracking using ScreamTracker, and then moved on to ImpulseTracker. There was some great music around then.
In a way, the demoscene is what drew me in to programming, and tied in my interest in music, design and programming. I used to spend hours downloading stuff from x2ftp (I had a dial-up back then), and going through them.
Of course, the most I've done is a Jetpak clone (the ZX Spectrum game) in Allegro, and a 3D spectrum visualization for Sonique, both lost now. But I had a great time.

Whoa, x2ftp. The memories… I too spent way too much time reading the docs during recess in school. And the same stuff at home via BBS's. I don't know why but demos were probably what I wanted to do when I was introduced to programming. Looking back, it's a bit weird how pre-90s demos made a bigger impression to me than games. Similarly, my first favorite tunes were from demos. I remember even taping a module and playing it to others at school. :)
I tried to pick demos that would appeal to the masses. I wanted to include so many old demos I had on the Atari ST but they are even more about the code than the art. I think the very modern demos like Track One are so close to music videos that people can find them serious art rather than a curiosity for nerds. But I still hope nerds too find this kind of stuff inspiring and learn programming (like you and me did!).
Yeah, x2ftp, wasn't it something? :) I could rattle off a few things that leave me feeling uncomfortably warm inside: RBIL, cubic player, NeHe's tutorials.
True about the inspiring stuff. But in a way, I'm worried that these days, with all the advances, it's getting harder to just 'jump in'. In the old days (just listen to me, I'm only 24 years old :)), all you needed was a copy of RBIL and Turbo C++/TASM/gcc, and you could mess around to your hearts content.
YOU wrote the 3D engine, you programmed the sound-blaster. It was your framework.
Now, ironically, with all the libraries and abstraction and techniques out there, it's hard. A toddler geek just starting off will find it harder to understand code when it talks about resource and contexts, shaders and pipelines, than if it just talks about calling interrupt 13h to set video mode.
Or maybe I've just not programmed in long enough. When you get into that zen state of mind, maybe it doesn't really matter. The closest I've gotten in two years is bits of perl, PHP and (ech) SQL.
An aside: The demo called Inside actually reminded me of an old module called inside.s3m by Purple Motion of Future Crew. I used to love that track. Just downloaded it again, it's still amazing the stuff he's done with 8 channels.
Also downloaded viewer2, will check it out soon. The video looks extremely interesting. Think it can replace IrfanView? :)
Sorry for this EXTREMELY long comment, but this post took me back to simpler times.
Well, I'm 26 and tend to nostalgize far too much as well…
I have thought of what it is like to start coding now and I think one pretty important difference is that nowadays it's easier to make something that is practical, as opposed to doing something only for fun. For example, in 2008, you would create a simple blog with PHP but back in 1991 you would try to make some sprites fly around the screen. There were confusing libraries out there back then. So, you can still sort of jump in easily, but it's a different train.
But then again there is no example source code in the instruction manuals for a modern computer. Nor are there any programming languages out of the box. I do agree that the bar is quite high so it's easy to give up, especially if you want to create a game that doesn't look amateurish. Hell, even creating a good looking demo takes a lot of effort.
PS. Purple Motion did a 2-channel module, too. :)

A doctor's bag, an iPad, a can of Red Bull and a football bootbag have all been stolen from insecure vehicles in Grantham over the last week.
Thieves have stolen items from 20 vehicles in the last seven days simply by opening a door.
Sunglasses, wallets, cash, laptops, drills and a lighter are some of the other items stolen.
Thieves also broke into a Volkswagen Transporter, stealing tools from inside.
Gary Stewart, inspector for Grantham, said: "If you leave your car or van unlocked your vehicle is a sitting-duck for thieves who will rummage around for literally anything of value and sometimes they will take trivial items too.
"Thefts of this nature are incredibly frustrating for the victims and for our officers investigating as they can be simply avoided.
"Please check your vehicles are always locked and remove anything that could make you a target – it isn't worth taking a chance as you could become the next victim."
Any suspicious activity should be reported to Lincolnshire Police by calling 101.

Mother jailed for attacking police officers arresting her son
Her son also faced charges
By Court Reporter Service

A mother who attacked police officers arresting her son has been jailed for three months at Lincoln Crown Court.
Lesley Wilkinson, 45, of High Street, Blyton, near Gainsborough, punched one officer in the face and then kicked him in the groin.
She went on to kick a second officer in the head during the incident at her home in the village of Blyton.
Eunice Opare-Addo, prosecuting, said that officers went to the family home in December 2019 as part of an investigation into an incident that occurred earlier in the day.
Jordan Kirman, Wilkinson's son, was arrested at the house and then a Special Constable went to arrest Wilkinson.
Miss Opare-Addo said: "Lesley Wilkinson became obstructive and punched the officer to the left side of the face making contact with the left cheek.
"The defendant began screaming and shouting. She kicked the officer in the groin area and then continued to kick out at the right side of his leg.
"She was escorted past Jordan Kirman, who was being detained. She was being aggressive and confrontational.
"As she walked past, she kicked twice at the officer detaining her son. One kick contacted the officer's head and the second contacted the right elbow."
Miss Opare-Addo said that as Wilkinson was being restrained a third officer suffered an injury to his right arm.
Lesley Wilkinson admitted two charges of assaulting an emergency worker and a further charge of obstructing a police officer in the execution of his duty as a result of the incident on December 22, 2019. She was jailed for three months.
Judge John Pini QC, passing sentence, told her: "I accept you felt aggrieved but that does not justify what you did.
"This court will not tolerate deliberate assaults on police officers. In your case there has to be an immediate custodial sentence."
Jordan Kirman, 20, of the same address, admitted obstructing a police officer in the execution of his duty.
He also admitted being in breach of a suspended jail sentence imposed for an offence of assault.
He was given a three-month community order with a three-month night-time curfew.
Mark Watson, for Wilkinson, said that an ongoing feud with another family resulted in police calling at her home.
He said that Wilkinson was the innocent party in that matter and intended to call police to complain of an assault, but the other family got in ahead of her and made their call first.
"What then took place is in the context of Lesley Wilkinson being assaulted herself and then being arrested. That gave rise to a strained situation and she reacted badly when the police called."
Mr Watson said that Wilkinson later faced a Magistrates Court trial over the incident which led to her police visiting her home and she was acquitted after citing self-defence.
He told the court that Wilkinson has mental health problems and he urged that any prison sentence should be suspended.
Leanne Summers, for Kirman, said: "When the police arrested him, he was initially compliant but then became concerned about the way police were treating his mother. In hindsight he realises he could have handled the situation better."

Spotify is one of the most popular streaming services that has changed our habituation associated with listening to music. You can use the site's resources for free, but there are some limitations. For the amenities in the form of no ads, high quality sound, etc., you have to pay by buying a Premium account. More "resourceful" users who decided to install modified Spotify applications were caught and asked to install an official client.
Installing pirated applications on Android smartphones is not particularly difficult. The only thing you need to do is to allow in the system settings to install applications from unknown sources, download the appropriate APK file and run it. Therefore, it can be suspected that quite a few people decided to fool Spotify and installed a modified client, which allows you to get free functionalities known from the Premium account. However, this type of activity is visible on the server side. That is why Spotify decided to warn the dishonest users and sent them a warning.
If you belong to the group of "resourceful" Spotify users, you do not have to worry about any financial penalties. The e-mail alert only says that the service provider detected incorrect application behavior, so it temporarily deactivated the user's account. However, access to the website can be recovered in a very simple way. Just uninstall the faulty client and install the official Spotify app, which is available in the Google Play store. Many people think that this action is linked to the company's recent entry into the New York Stock Exchange. This type of action is quite reasonable. There is a fairly good chance that the user who has got used to the comforts offered by the Premium account will decide to purchase a subscription.

Q: Why mysql fulltext search scan entire table when using "OR"? My table A is
CREATE TABLE `a` (
  `id` int unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `content` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `f_c` (`content`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=6 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

My table B is
CREATE TABLE `b` (
  `id` int unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `content` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `a_id` int DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  KEY `i_a` (`a_id`),
  FULLTEXT KEY `f_t` (`content`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=4 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

My query is
EXPLAIN
  SELECT * FROM a
  LEFT JOIN b ON a.id = b.a_id
  WHERE MATCH(a.content) AGAINST ("foo")
          OR MATCH(b.content) AGAINST ("foo");

And the result is mysql scan all rows in table A. Why is it? How to solve it?


Never engage any task with the intent of mediocrity. In doing so, you are betraying your overall goal of pursuing excellence in everything that you do. This is an important thing to consider before you begin any task in your daily routine.
This sounds like an easy concept when the task you are engaging in is one where the pursuit of greatness comes naturally. If you are going to the gym, it's only natural to try to lift more or run faster than the last time you went. If you're going into a business negotiation, you are naturally inclined to strive to come out on top. But what about when you're going to the grocery store? Or when you're just taking out the garbage? There's really no way to strive for greatness in these activities, is there?
The simple answer is yes. In the continual pursuit of becoming the best man or woman that you can be, there is room for improvement in all things we do. Take the grocery run for example. Should you really be picking up those frozen pizzas? Sure, they're quick and hassle free, but are they the best choice for your physical and mental wellbeing?
Take a moment before you begin any task during your day. Ask yourself, is there a way that I can be bettering myself as a whole human being by doing this? If you truly apply yourself to this concept, there will be opportunity in everything that you do. Maybe you start doing curls with the garbage bags as you take them out to the trash.
Maybe when playing with your kids, you take an extra few moments to teach them how to spell some of the words they are using. Or maybe you just take the extra few seconds to tell them how proud of them you are, and how much you love them. It is only through the continued pursuit of bettering oneself that one can ever truly achieve their whole potential, and it is in this that true greatness resides.
