What engineer or architect would describe flaws in a bridge or building he'd never seen? What doctor would describe the fractures in the bones of a patient he'd never examined? But some who make their living in the mental health industry feel no compunction describing the psychiatric problems suffered by people they've never met.
Here are some of their pronouncements. The great scientist and Bible scholar, Isaac Newton was bipolar and suffered from autism and schizophrenia. Winston Churchill suffered from clinical depression. According to the Journal of Medical Biography, Michelangelo, the artist who painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican, was autistic. Abraham Lincoln, Beethoven, Charles Darwin and many other great achievers of history are similarly described.
I must confess to being very skeptical. Considering Churchill, most of the cited evidence revolves around his self-described Black Dog. Having spent some of my childhood in the United Kingdom, I remember that the term meant being in a bad mood or getting out of bed on the wrong side. Churchill's own daughter confirms that there were times during World War II that her famous father was in a bad mood. There were also times when he felt and expressed deep, inconsolable grief at the loss of Allied soldiers. Does that translate into clinical depression? Certainly not.


BJP is yet to announce candidates for Mehsana, Surat and Ahmedabad (East) Lok Sabha seats, the last held by actor-politician Paresh Rawal who refused to contest this time.
Ahmedabad: The BJP on Sunday announced four more Lok Sabha candidates for Gujarat, dropping three sitting MPs.
Bharatsinh Dabhi, sitting MLA from Kheralu assembly constituency, will contest from Patan while Geeta Rathwa, a district panchayat member for the last five terms, will be the BJP candidate from Chhota Udepur (ST).
Mitesh Patel, a district-level treasurer in the BJP, will fight from Anand.
The three will replace sitting MPs Liladhar Vaghela from Patan, Ramsinh Rathwa from Chhota Udepur (ST) and Dilip Patel from Anand.
Junagadh Member of Parliament Rajesh Chudasama has been renominated from the same seat. Vaghela had declined to contest the April-May Lok Sabha polls citing poor health.
The ruling party has so far announced candidates for 23 out of the state's 26 seats.
It is yet to announce candidates for Mehsana, Surat and Ahmedabad (East) Lok Sabha seats, the last held by actor-politician Paresh Rawal who refused to contest this time.
The BJP, while announcing candidates for the 23 Lok Sabha seats, has dropped eight sitting MPs.
Apart from the three dropped Sunday, the other five are party patriarch LK Advani from Gandhinagar, Haribhai Chaudhary from Banaskantha, Probandar's Vitthal Radadiya, Devjibhai Fatepura from Surendranagar and Prabhatsinh Chauhan from Panchmahal.
Among the 23 candidates are four women, comprising Geeta Rathwa from Chhota Udepur (ST), Ranjanben Bhatt from Vadodara, Punamben Madam from Jamnagar and Bhartiben Siyal from Bhavnagar.
The BJP also announced the candidate for the Talala Assembly bypoll, necessitated by the conviction of Congress MLA Bhagvan Barad in an illegal mining case and subsequent disqualification.
It has already announced names for the three other Assembly by polls.
Jawahar Chavda and Parsotam Sabariya, both Congress MLAs who had resigned from the Assembly to join the BJP, have been given tickets from Manavadar and Dhrangadhra while Raghavji Patel, also a former Congress MLA, will contest from Jamnagar (Rural).
The Congress, on the other hand, has declared only 13 candidates for the Lok Sabha elections so far, and none for the four bypolls.
While the Congress is yet to declare its candidate for Patan, it has fielded Punjbhai Vansh, Bharatsinh Solanki and Ranjit Rathwa from Junagadh, Anand and Chhota Udepur Lok Sabha seats respectively.
The last date of filing nominations for the Lok Sabha polls is April 4, while polling will take place across the state on April 23.


In understanding a trustee's duties with respect to the management of risk, it is useful to distinguish between diversifiable (or "uncompensated") risk and market (or non-diversifiable) risk that is, in effect, compensated through pricing in the marketplace. The distinction is useful in considering fiduciary responsibilities both in setting risk-level objectives and in diversification of the trust portfolio.
In the absence of contrary statute or trust provision, the requirement of caution ordinarily imposes a duty to use reasonable care and skill in an effort to minimize or at least reduce diversifiable risks. Often called non-market risk, or somewhat less precisely "specific" or "unique" risk, these are risks that can be reduced through proper diversification of a portfolio. Because market pricing cannot be expected to recognize and reward a particular investor's failure to diversify, a trustee's acceptance of this type of risk cannot, without more, be justified on grounds of enhancing expected return. What has come to be called "modern portfolio theory" offers an instructive conceptual framework for under- standing and attempting to cope with non-market risk. The trustee's normal duty to diversify in a reasonable manner, however, is not derived from or legally defined by the principles of any particular theory. See Reporter's General Note on Comments e through k for discussions of asset pricing, types of risk, and the advantages of diversification.
Another aspect of risk management deals with market risk, often called "systemic" or "systematic" risk, or more descriptively for present purposes, simply non-diversifiable or compensated risk. The trustee's duties and objectives with respect to this second category of risk are not as distinct as those with respect to diversifiable risk. They involve quite subjective judgments that are essentially unavoidable in the process of asset management, addressing the appropriate degree of risk to be undertaken in pursuit of a higher or lower level of expected return from the trust portfolio. In this respect the trustee must take account of the element of conservatism that is ordinarily implicit in the prudent investor rule's duty of caution. Opportunities for gain, however, normally bear a direct relationship to the degree of compensated risk. Thus, although an inferred, general duty to invest conservatively is a traditional and accepted feature of trust law, that duty is necessarily imprecise in its requirements and is applied with considerable flexibility. (Despite the flexibility of the trustee's in this respect, it is often possible to obtain useful and, in a sense, objective information about degrees of risk associated with a stock or bond or with a portfolio of securities. See Reporter's Notes.
For purposes of understanding and applying the fiduciary duty of prudent investing, it is essential to recognize that compensated risk is not inherently bad. Therefore, no objective, general legal standard can be set for a degree of risk that is or is not prudent under the rule of this Section. Beneficiaries can be disserved by undue conservatism as well as by excessive risk-taking. Decisions concerning a prudent or suitable level of market risk for a particular trust can be reached only after thoughtful consideration of its purposes and all of the relevant trust and beneficiary circumstances. This process includes, for example, balancing the trust's return requirements with its tolerance for volatility.
Despite variations and flexibility in all of these matters, one pervasive generalization prevails concerning the prudent investor's duty of caution: reasonably sound diversification is fundamental to the management of risk, regardless of the level of conservatism or risk appropriate to the trust in question. Therefore trustees ordinarily have a duty to diversify investments. See Comment g, below. The purpose of diversification (apart from the role it may play in discharging the trustee's duty of impartiality) is not only to moderate risks that are inherent in investing but also to reduce risks that are not justified by some prospect of gain.
Failure to diversify on a reasonable basis in order to reduce uncompensated risk is ordinarily a violation of both the duty of caution and the duties of care and skill. See Reporter's Notes; also see Comment m, below, on the use of mutual funds and other pooled investment arrangements for this purpose. On the other hand, the prudent investor rule is considerably more flexible in addressing questions concerning the degree of compensated risk, essentially questions of conservatism. This flexibility is appropriate because of the tradeoff between risk and expected return, and because a consideration of the purposes, obligations, and circumstances of the trust is proper in evaluating the suitability of a trustee's investment strategy. Nevertheless, the facts of Illustration 12 suggest no justification for the described degree of commitment to a high-risk-and-reward strategy. · The reason, however, is not that the investment of trust funds in relatively unestablished enterprises is impermissible if done in a prudent manner in appropriate trust situations. See Comment p, below, and, more generally, Reporter's Notes.
As a result of the tendency of the value fluctuations of different assets to offset one another, a portfolio's risk is less than the weighted average of the risk of its individual holdings. A portfolio's expected return, on the other hand, is simply a weighted average of the expected returns of the individual assets. Thus, the expected return is not affected by the portfolio's reduced level of what is often called "specific" or "unique" risk-insofar as those terms are used to refer to risks that can be reduced by diversification. Other types of risk, however, are generally compensated through market pricing, so that the expected return from an investment or portfolio is directly affected by the level of these risks that cannot be diversified away-the so-called "market" or "systematic" risks. Accordingly, a trustee's duty of prudent investing normally calls for reasonable efforts to reduce diversifiable risks, while no such generalization can be made with respect to market risk. See discussion of risk management in Comment e, above, dealing with the duty of caution.
Significant diversification advantages can be achieved with a small number of well-selected securities representing different industries. and having other differences in their qualities. Broader diversification, however, is usually to be preferred in trust investing. Broadened diversification may lead to additional transaction costs, at least initially, but the constraining effect of these costs can generally be dealt with quite effectively through pooled investing. See Comment m, below. Hence, thorough diversification is practical for nearly all trustees. The ultimate goal of diversification would be to achieve a portfolio with only the rewarded or "market" element of risk.
The rationale of the trust law's requirement of diversification is more than conservatism or a duty of caution, which admonishes trustees not to take excessive risks-that is, not to take risks higher than suitable to a trust's purposes, return requirements, and other circumstances. The general duty to diversify further ex- presses a warning to trustees, predicated on the duty to exercise care and skill, against taking bad risks – ones in which there is unwarranted danger of loss, or volatility that is not compensated by commensurate opportunities for gain. Thus, while risk-taking cannot realistically be forbidden, or subjected to an arbitrary ceiling, it is required to be done prudently. A central feature of such prudence ordinarily is the reduction of uncompensated risk through diversification.
This generalization does not apply to non-diversifiable, compensated risk. In constructing a portfolio, the degree of such risk in a trust's investment program is properly a matter of conscious decisions to be made by the trustee, influencing, for example, the ratings of bonds to be held in a portfolio of debt securities and the risk level of a stock portfolio. The trustee has an obligation to make this strategic decision after careful consideration of the risk-reward tradeoffs involved and after considering the potential cash-need consequences of the risk element in that choice. This decision making is to be done with the general and flexible fiduciary duty of caution in mind.
With professional advice as needed, the trustee personally must define the trust's investment objectives. The trustee must also make the decisions that establish the trust's investment strategies and programs, at least to the extent of approving plans developed by agents or advisers. Beyond these generalizations, expressed in terms that are necessarily imprecise, there is no invariant formula concerning functions that are to be performed by the trustee personally.
Because all economic events do not affect the value of all investments in the same way, risk (or volatility, which is often referred to in economic literature as "standard deviation," which in turn is the square root of variance) is always greater with a single stock than it is with multiple stocks. At least this is true unless their returns are perfectly correlated-that is, unless they vary identically, as one could only hypothesize. To the extent their outcomes are opposed, so that variations in result would tend to cancel each other, the portfolio receives the benefit of reduced risk (that is, a reduction in the firm specific or diversifiable element of risk) with no impairment of the portfolio's average return expectation.
As a result, a portfolio's risk is less than the weighted average of the risk of its individual holdings. A portfolio's expected return, on the other hand, is simply a weighted average of the expected returns of the individual assets. Thus, although the portfolio's expected return is affected by changes in its level of market risk, expected return is not affected by changes in the portfolio's level of specific risk (or "unique" risk, as this diversifiable risk is often called). Accordingly, minimization of the latter becomes a significant goal of prudent investing, while no such generalization can be made with respect to the former.

4 Care for a Divided Bamboo
Don't expect your Phyllostachys nuda bamboo plant, commonly called nuda bamboo, to behave itself. Like an overactive toddler, you may end up chasing it endlessly around the yard. Of the two types of bamboo -- clumping and running -- nuda bamboo is the latter. It is tenacious and hardier than its clumping cousins. It tolerates temperatures to 20 degrees Fahrenheit and grows best in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 6 through 9.
Nuda bamboo plants may reach up to 30 feet in USDA zones 7 and above.The plants grow rapidly, from shoots to 18 feet in as few as 50 days. New shoots, which are edible, are a purple-brown color when they emerge in spring and bear white rings, also known as nodes.
Grow nuda bamboo in well-drained soil with lots of organic material and a pH of 6.5. In early spring and midsummer, feed the bamboo plant with a high-nitrogen fertilizer, such as 21-5-6, at the rate listed on the product's label. In fall, switch to a 0-10-10 fertilizer, applied according to manufacturer's instructions. Nuda bamboo requires somewhat moist soil, so water it weekly, using 1 gallon of water, delivered slowly over the root zone. In the heat of summer, you may want to spread a 3-inch layer of mulch around the bamboo stalks to insulate the soil and conserve moisture.
Bamboo is attractive to a number of garden pests. While aphids won't kill the plant, the honeydew the pests secrete attracts ants. Spray the bamboo with neem oil or insecticidal soap to control an aphid infestation. These products also control mealybugs and whiteflies. If you notice webbing, especially on the undersides of foliage, the nuda bamboo may be infested with spider mites. Use a miticide, registered for use on bamboo, to control the problem.
There are several ways to control nuda bamboo so it doesn't become invasive. The easiest way to control it is to not plant it in the ground, but in a large, sturdy container. It takes well to container growing and can be divided when it becomes large and outgrows the pot. Growing nuda bamboo in either full or partial shade will control both its height and the extent of its running. Another easy method of controlling nuda bamboo is to remove new shoots when they reach 6 inches tall. Kick the fragile shoots with a heavy boot or use a lawn mower or weed trimmer to chop them to the soil. Once cut to the ground, the shoot won't regrow. A more labor-intensive way to keep nuda bamboo from taking over is by installing a physical barrier, such as heavy gauge plastic sheeting, copper or concrete, 3 feet deep and completely surrounding the bamboo.
Kill Nuda Bamboo
The best product to use to kill nuda bamboo is a nonselective herbicide, such as one containing glyphosate. You'll need to cut all the bamboo stalks to the soil, allow the new sprouts to grow and leaf out. Wait until fall to spray the plant's foliage with the herbicide and then repeat the application in two weeks. Nonselective herbicides will kill most plants it comes into contact with, so protect garden ornamentals by draping them with plastic or surrounding them with a cardboard barrier.

The median household income of $250,001 is compared to the rest of the country. It is also compared to nearby ZIP codes. So 82063 is likely to be one of the nicer parts of town with a more affluent demographic.
As with most parts of the country, vehicles are the most common form of transportation to places of employment. Pedestrians and cyclists beware. The area has some of lowest percentages of commutes without a vehicle in the country. A higher percentage of people in 82063 than almost anywhere in the country avoid a commute altogether by working at home. In most parts of the country, the majority of commuters get to work in under half an hour. In 82063 though, the percentage of people that make it to work in under half an hour is among the lowest. The area has an extremely high percentage of people that most travel over 45 minutes to their place of employment. People that commute should be aware of the potentially long commute times.
Compared to other ZIPs, 82063 has a very small percentage of people that did not graduate high school. The area has some of the highest percentages of people who attended college of any ZIP.

Q: How to conditionally render based on a media query in React with SSR (Next.js)? I have a lot of components, that should displayed separately on different viewports. On client-side, there's useLayoutEffect. Here's how to use it without warning with SSR:
export const useLayoutEffect =
    typeof window !== 'undefined' && window.document && window.document.createElement
        ? React.useLayoutEffect
        : React.useEffect;

It's ok if useLayoutEffect runs later after initial DOM render, when the bundle is loaded.
But I need to run it before first paint. It's necessary for conditional rendering using window.matchQuery:
useMedia.tsx:
import { useState } from 'react';
import { useLayoutEffect } from './utils';

export const useMedia = (query: string) => {
    const [matches, setMatches] = useState(false);

    useLayoutEffect(() => {
        const mediaObserver = window.matchMedia(query);
        setMatches(mediaObserver.matches);

        const updateMatch = (e: MediaQueryListEvent) =>
            e.matches ? setMatches(true) : setMatches(false);

        if (mediaObserver.addEventListener) {
            mediaObserver.addEventListener('change', updateMatch);
            return () => mediaObserver.removeEventListener('change', updateMatch);
        } else {
            // Safari < 14
            mediaObserver.addListener(updateMatch);
            return () => mediaObserver.removeListener(updateMatch);
        }
    }, [query]);

    return matches;
};

Another identical case is when I need to toogle the state before the DOM is rendered.
useLayoutEffect(() => {
        if (window.matchMedia('(max-width: 1024px)').matches) {
            setOpenInfo(false);
        }
    }, []);

Which is not possible for SSR before initial render. For now I can use https://github.com/artsy/fresnel package, which seems to solve the problem, or in the future features like HTML Client Hints. Maybe there's some better approach I missed?

When It Comes to COVID & Cleaning, Stick With the Facts
Covid-19, Educate, Train & Monitor
Diverse information abounds when it comes to how long SARS-COV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can live on a surface. First, it was "a long time"; next, came a shopping list of surfaces with various virus survival times. Then, it was "up to seven days on some surfaces." Most recently, according to Australian research, the virus can live up to 28 days on some surfaces—in the dark.
Similarly, there has been a lot of back and forth regarding how the virus is spread. The droplets were initially thought to be heavier than air, making the surfaces they landed on the prime method of transference. This was reversed when it was discovered the virus was communicable through a finer mist that lingers in the air after an infected person coughs or sneezes.
Follow the Facts
Speculation aside, somethings are certain:
Gravity plays a role. Lighter or heavier, at some point the virus droplets fall down and land on a surface, whether a counter, table, desk, or the floor.
Carriers will touch surfaces. People who have contracted COVID-19 will touch surfaces, unknowingly contaminating them, and other people will come along, in some cases immediately, and touch these same surfaces.
People can be contaminated from surfaces. Based on the above two points, some percent of people can/will contract COVID-19 from a SARS-CoV-2 contaminated surface. And let's not forget that surface transmission has been scientifically proven when it comes to colds, the flu, MRSA, Ebola, and a host of other viruses.
Disinfectants can't work unless a surface is cleaned first. Given the risk of infection, the tendency of many people, even—or especially— cleaning professionals, is to grab for the heavy disinfectant artillery and start spraying and wiping, especially the high touch points.
However, the vital first step for infection prevention is thorough cleaning, a fact that cannot be ignored.
Cleaning: The No. 1 Defense
Surfaces must be cleaned before they can be effectively disinfected for many reasons, including:
Dirt and debris can shield potentially harmful pathogens from the disinfectant and create an environment that actually exacerbates the situation by allowing them to multiply. This is especially true for the SARS-CoV-2, which is an "enveloped" virus, i.e., it is surrounded by a lipid membrane. This membrane is easily broken down by a disinfectant approved by the EPA to fight SARS-CoV-2. However, if the virus cells are hiding under dirt or dust, the disinfectant can't reach the membrane to kill the virus, which is then able to continue to multiply on the surface.
Germs reside in cracks and crevices and can be overlooked by disinfectants, especially in porous surfaces. This is why cleaning's agitation, such as scrubbing, is important.
Continuing to spray a disinfectant on a surface that has not been cleaned allows the chemical to build up, creating a biofilm that can protect and attract pathogens and encourage them to multiply. Cleaning removes this leftover residue and allows the disinfectant to do its intended job.
Disinfectants are chemicals that can be dangerous to health and the environment. This is why every disinfectant used in the United States must be registered with the EPA and have a safety data sheet (SDS) and label outlining its potential dangers. Obviously, disinfectant use is necessary on some surfaces and areas such as high-touch points or where there is known case of COVID-19 or a cold, flu, or other outbreak. However, for less-used surfaces and areas where there is no known contamination, thorough cleaning is preferable. In fact, the CDC recommends never disinfecting outdoor areas, such as playgrounds, and parks, where disinfectants are ineffective, and therefore pose unnecessary health and environmental risks.
In addition to being healthier, avoiding unwarranted disinfecting also saves time and money through less product use and labor, especially considering most disinfectants require a "dwell" time—or wet contact time—of 3 to 10 minutes to disinfect a surface.
Disinfecting plays a major role in infection prevention, but without cleaning first, you can't keep your facility and its occupants safe.

A female was spotted grooming the body of her adopted son, who had died from a lung infection.
Chimps have been filmed tending to the dead for the first time in a reserve in Zambia. An adult female was seen cleaning the teeth of her adopted son with a stiff piece of grass.
The female, named Noel and aged 33, had been born in the wild but was living in the Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage Trust. She was seen grooming the dead body of a younger male, named Thomas, whom she had adopted after his mother's death, according to a study published in the journal Scientific Reports. Thomas is thought to have died from lung infections, an autopsy revealed.
"Noel approached Thomas' body, sat down close to his head, turned her upper body sideways to select a hard piece of grass, put the grass in her mouth, and opened Thomas' mouth with both of her hands," write the study authors, led by Edwin van Leeuwen of the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in the Netherlands.
Noel then put the piece of grass in her teeth to explore his teeth with her thumbs, before picking up the grass again.
"After three seconds, she took the grass out of her mouth with her right hand, while maintaining a focused grip on Thomas' mouth with her left hand, and started to meticulously poke the grass in the same dental area as where her thumbs had been."
The authors suggest that this behaviour in chimps could shed light on the origins of death rituals in humans. However, of the University of Geneva, Switzerland, cautions that this behaviour doesn't prove that chimps are practising death rituals as it's not clear whether Noel knew that Thomas was dead.
"We simply do not know if and how much chimps understand about death," Gruber told the New Scientist.
"In other words, it is unclear whether this is 'corpse cleaning', or simply 'social cleaning'. But certainly, it adds on behavioural descriptions of unusual behaviour displayed by chimps when they face the death of one of their species."
This is not the first time that chimps have been filmed interacting with a dead body of a member of the group. In January scientists published a film of a group of chimpanzees attacking and eating the body of a former alpha male of the group after he had been killed.

Q: Why do i get "position_dodge requires constant width" even though widths are constant in ggplot2 I'm getting a warning message I don't understand for simple bar charts in ggplot2
> df <- data.frame(X = 127:131, Y = rnorm(5))
> df
    X          Y
1 127  0.9391077
2 128 -0.9392529
3 129 -1.1296221
4 130  1.1454907
5 131  1.8564596
> ggplot(df) + geom_bar(aes(X,Y), stat ="identity", position = "dodge")
Warning message:
position_dodge requires constant width: output may be incorrect

It only seems to happen for certain ranges of X values.  I've googled for info on this, but it all seems to be talking about cases when the widths genuinely are different, or cases where stat is not "identity".  In this case the X values are just integers, so it should be simple.
The chart produced looks ok, so I'm uneasy about just ignoring a warning I don't understand.
Any idea what is going on?

A: Setting options(warn = 2, error = recover), and rerunning the code lets us find the problem.
Inside the collide function (number 16 in the call stack), there is this piece of code:
if (!zero_range(range(widths))) {
    warning(name, " requires constant width: output may be incorrect",
        call. = FALSE)
}

Floating point rounding errors mean that widths takes slightly different values.
format(widths, digits = 22)
# [1] "0.9000000000000056843419" "0.8999999999999914734872" "0.8999999999999772626325"

The tolerance for checking that the numbers are the same is too strict: about 2.2e-14.
args(zero_range)
# function (x, tol = .Machine$double.eps * 100)
# NULL
.Machine$double.eps * 100
# [1] 2.220446e-14

So the warning is erroneous; don't worry about it.


This new framework from Wikitude would have sure come in handy for some of last year's AR-based NMD capstones.
We asked ourselves this question a few months ago…..and created ARchitect!
The three key concepts for us when designing the ARchitect were: 1) Developers shouldn't be required to learn new concepts or tools. 2) The ARchitect should be very simple to get into, do something meaningful with only a few lines of code. 3) And yet, it should be massively powerful and flexible to create highly complex AR applications.
Animations by YOU You can animate the objects and their visualizations, make them rotate, scale, disappear, … It's totally up to you! Play sounds and videos, do network interaction, create interactive games, even with network multiplayer mode, let your phone vibrate, and much much more! With the ARchitect, you finally have a powerful tool in your hand to create incredible, mind-blowing AR applications!
Will browser games kill the console star?
If the founder of console powerhouse Electronic Arts is right when he says "the browser is the platform of the future," then here are some inventive takes on what that future might look like–from rolling up your favorite Web page Katamari Damacy-style to playing a game entirely in the URL bar.
This is a "bookmarklet" that turns any page into Katamari Damacy. Try clicking the Katamari! link above.
This was the winner of the 2011 Yahoo HackU contest at University of Washington.
Short version: css transforms (for things stuck to the katamari), canvas (drawing the katamari), and z-index (illusion of depth).
This minimalist gem crams an entire game into a single URL.
Trip breaks it down for us.
Many other companies have already stopped supporting older browsers like Internet Explorer 6.0 as well as browsers that are not supported by their own manufacturers. We're also going to begin phasing out our support, starting with Google Docs and Google Sites. As a result you may find that from March 1 key functionality within these products — as well as new Docs and Sites features — won't work properly in older browsers.
I think that officially means the rest of the world can do it as well. And since everybody is going to be upgrading now, when IE8 is available (among other, better choices) that means there's no need to support IE7 anymore either, right?
Internet Explorer to be added to Axis of Evil?
After McAfee's disclosure of an IE 0-day vulnerability this week that had been used in Operation Aurora, the hack and stealing of data from Google, Adobe and about 3 dozen other major companies, the German government has advised the public to switch to alternative browsers.

Best and worst states for the subject every school should be teaching
By Meris Stansbury, Associate Editor, @eSN_Meris
Comprehensive report details state progress (or lack of) in teaching finance and economics in K-12
In the midst of the country's slow climb to economic recovery, there's been an outpouring of support from communities to teach today's students the one subject that could perhaps prevent future economic woes: personal finance and economics. However, though states are making progress, there's still work to be done.
"The number one problem in today's generation and economy is the lack of financial literacy," said Alan Greenspan, economist and former chairman of the Federal Reserve.
And the Council for Economic Education (CEE) agrees. The CEE's report, "Survey of the States: Economic and Personal Finance Education in Our Nation's Schools 2014," conducted every two years by the CEE and collects data from all 50 states and the District of Columbia, highlights the best and worst states for teaching personal finance literacy. It also reveals some startling facts about student struggling with finance.
For example, a majority of the public school students in the U.S. still are not exposed to economics or personal finance education despite the lessons of the recent recession. Only 22 of the 50 states require high school students to take an economics course and only 16 states require testing of economics concepts, the survey found. Two years ago when a similar survey was taken, the totals were the same.
Also, 30 percent of college students with loans drop out without having completed their degree, found the CEE, yet only 17 states require a high school course in personal finance.
While only 17 states require high school students to take a personal finance course and only six require testing of personal finance concepts, there has been some growth since 2011 when the totals were 13 and six, notes the report.
"The Great Recession put a spotlight on the dangers of a financially illiterate society, demonstrating the importance of a basic understanding of economic and financial concepts," said Nan Morrison, the president and CEO of the CEE, in a statement. "We've got to do a better job of helping our policy makers and educators ensure that students nearing adulthood gain that understanding."

One Year Ago Today…
John M. Becker September 20, 2012
Exactly one year ago today, the repeal of the military's discriminatory "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy went into effect. For the first time in history, servicemembers in the United States military could no longer be barred or discharged from service to the country they love because of who they love. As I mentioned last week, contrary to the hysterical anti-gay rhetoric of equality opponents like Arizona Sen. John McCain, DADT repeal has been proven to have absolutely no negative consequences whatsoever to morale and unit cohesion in the American armed forces.
In the ensuing year, the Advocate notes that there have also been an amazing number of firsts for the military, including the first gay wedding (which happened right here at Moose Meadow Lodge in Vermont!), the first time LGBT servicemembers were permitted to march in pride parades while in uniform, and the first general to come out while serving her country. An additional milestone not mentioned by the Advocate is the first LGBT student organization and Pride Week at a military college, a distinction belonging to Vermont's Norwich University.
However, there is still work to be done in order to achieve full equality for LGBT members of the military. Zack Ford over at ThinkProgress reports:
Still, many questions linger for the LGBT community. As Chris Geidner noted this week, the Defense Department has yet to address same-sex partner benefits for servicemembers. Republicans continue to try to overextend the Defense of Marriage Act's limitations on the religious liberty of soldiers and chaplains. And despite DADT repeal, people who are transgender are still prohibited from serving their country because the military still deems such identities to be mental disorders. Though a big hurdle was conquered, LGBT people still experience disenfranchisement in the military.
So there you have it. Today's anniversary of the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" is definitely a milestone worth celebrating. But don't think, even for a minute, that there isn't a boatload of work still remaining to be done. Onward!

Ethelbert Blatter, né le  à Rebstein (Suisse) et décédé le  à Poona (Inde), est un prêtre jésuite suisse, et botaniste de renom.

Biographie
Il étudie les langues modernes à Schwyz avant d'entrer dans la Compagnie de Jésus en 1896 à la grande surprise de ses proches. Il complète ses études de philosophie avant de se consacrer presque exclusivement à la botanique. Il arrive en Inde en 1903 et enseigne la biologie au Collège Saint Xavier de Bombay. C'est alors qu'il commence à rédiger ses premières contributions consacrées à la flore asiatique. Il voyage beaucoup et, à partir de 1906, constitue un vaste herbier.

De retour en Europe en 1909 pour l'étude de la théologie, comme préparation au sacerdoce, il est ordonné prêtre le 25 aout 1912 à Hastings (Angleterre).

Il rentre à Bombay en 1915 où il reprend son enseignement. Il succède à Alban Goodier comme recteur du collège en 1919. Il se retire en 1925 à Panchgani, une paroisse de montagne au Maharashtra, où il demeure jusqu'à sa mort en 1934.

En 1926, il supervise la réédition de la Flora of the Bombay Presidency de Theodore Cooke. Il est élu président de l'Indian Botanical Society en 1927.

Blatter Herbarium
L'herbier des Facultés universitaires Saint-Xavier à Bombay qu'il avait initié en 1906 a été rebaptisé Blatter Herbarium en 1941, en hommage à son fondateur, par son associé le père Henry Santapau. Reconnu comme un des meilleurs en Inde il compte aujourd'hui plus de 300000 specimens de plantes et est répertorié sur la liste des herbiers publiée par le 'Kew Institute' de Londres.

If a student returns to school before 24 hours, the parent will be notified to come get the student.
Missouri law requires that all school children be immunized against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, hepatitis B, measles, mumps, rubella and varicella. The school is required to keep a record showing the immunization status of each child enrolled. Children who are not exempted by religious belief or medical exemption, must either be immunized or be in the process of immunization. Student will be denied admission until compliance of Missouri statutes is met.
Health Forms:
The school will send home a health form to be completed by the parent/guardian. This form provides the school with needed medical information and is kept in the student's medical file. The form also gives the school nurse and trained staff permission to administer over the counter medications. Your students will not be given any over the counter medication without your signed consent on this health form.
Medication Administration:
All prescription and non prescription medication should be brought to the building office or the nurse's office. The school nurse or trained staff will administer prescription medication to students provided the medication is in the original labeled container. An authorized Medication Consent Form must be completed by the parent or legal guardian. The prescription must have a current date and labeled instructions for use.
Over the counter medications must be in the original container and consent must also be signed for administration. The school will not give the first dose of any medication.
Self Administered Medications:
An authorized prescriber may recommend that an individual student with a chronic health condition be allowed to be in possession of his or her medication on district property for the purposes of self-administration. The district will permit possession of medication for the treatment of asthma or anaphylaxis, IF THE PHYSICIAN HAS PROVIDED A WRITTEN TREATMENT PLAN FOR THE CONDITION FOR WHICH THE MEDICATION WAS PRESCRIBED OR AUTHORIZED THAT INCLUDES A CERTIFICATION THAT THE STUDENT IS CAPABLE OF AND HAS BEEN INSTRUCTED IN THE CORRECT AND RESPONSIBLE USE OF THE MEDICATION AND HAS DEMONSTRATED TO THE PHYSICIAN OR THE PHYSICIAN'S DESIGNEE THE SKILL LEVEL NECESSARY TO USE THE MEDICATION.
Epi Pens
All buildings in the district are equipped with prefilled epinephrine auto syringes that can be administered by the school nurse or trained staff when the nurse or trained staff believes, based on his or her training that a student is having a life threatening anaphylactic reaction. Epinephrine will only be administered in accordance with written protocols provided by an authorized prescriber. In the event of a severe allergic reaction (difficulty breathing, swelling of the lips/face/throat, ect.) the nurse or trained staff will administer the epinephrine.
Per Board Action May 2005: Students who have been examined and found to have head lice and/or nits will be sent home for treatment. These students will not be allowed to return to school until they have been cleared of all lice and nits.
Screening programs focus on early detection and prompt treatment of potentially serious health problems. Students will be excused from any screening upon receipt of a written request from the student's parent/guardian that must be placed on file prior to the beginning of the school year. Results of each screening will be recorded and a copy placed in the child's medical file.
A notice of screenings will go home with the student. An opt out form will be provided at that time. Not returning the opt out form will provide assumed consent and the child will participate in the scheduled screening. Parents will be notified of the screening results and a copy of the results will be placed in the student's medical file.

Irreconcilable guns need to be silenced in Afghanistan: India tell UNSC
Syed Akbaruddin said it should be clear to the armed opposition that there would be no tolerance for those who continue violence.
By: PTI
United Nations | March 9, 2018 11:52 IST
India's Permanent Representative to the UN Syed Akbaruddin. (Source: Reuters/File)
India has supported the recent move of the unity government in Afghanistan for peace talks with the Taliban, saying the "irreconcilable guns" in the war-torn country need to be silenced.
At the 2nd Kabul Process Conference on February 28, Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani called on the Taliban to participate in peace talks to "save the country" while offering security and incentives like passports to insurgents who take part in the negotiations.
Ghani had said a ceasefire must be agreed on and the Taliban should be declared a political group.
"The Afghan Government's willingness for peace is despite the fact that armed groups have identified themselves and demonstrated to all of us that they are the irreconcilables," India's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Syed Akbaruddin told the UN Security Council during an open debate on Afghanistan.
"These efforts of the Afghan government calling on the armed groups to cease violence and join the national peace and reconciliation process that would protect the rights of all the citizens, including women, children and the minorities, deserves the full support," he said yesterday.
Akbaruddin, however, said it should be clear to the armed opposition that there would be no tolerance for those who continue violence.
"Any violence needs a robust response. The irreconcilable guns need to be silenced," he said.
He said India had invested over USD 2 billion in Afghanistan since 2002 in reconstruction and development of the country.
"A strong focus of our work has been on nearly 550 High Impact Community Development Projects which run across areas such as education, health, agriculture and irrigation, power and energy," he added.
"All these have a direct bearing on the improvement of lives of all Afghans including girls and women specially so for projects in education and healthcare sectors," the top Indian diplomat said.
Welcoming the focus of the Security Council on linkages between extremism, terrorism, drug production and illegal exploitation of natural resources of Afghanistan, he said the increase in cultivation of poppy in areas under the control of the Taliban and the outfit's involvement in virtually all aspects of the opium trade suggested that it was akin to a drug cartel.
"We hope that the Council will better utilize the range of tools available to it to deal with these trans-national networks of drugs, terrorism and crime," he said.
Akbaruddin said that despite the international community's efforts, those supporting the terrorists affecting Afghanistan have not been deterred.
"There are still those who provide sanctuaries to support the dark agendas of terrorist organisations like the Taliban, Haqqani Network, ISIS, Al-Qaeda, LeT and JeM. Indeed the challenges posed by cross border terrorism emanating from safe havens and sanctuaries to Afghanistan and to our region must be addressed," Akbaruddin said.
A resurgent Taliban has been blamed for much of the uptick in violence in Afghanistan since the US and NATO forces ended their combat missions in 2014.
A Taliban attacker killed over 100 people and injured more than 230 others after driving an ambulance filled with explosives into the heart of the city on January 27.
The Taliban claimed the resposibility of the attack.
A week before the ambulance attack, militants stormed a luxury hotel in Kabul, killing 22 people, including 14 foreigners.

Wroclaw is a beautiful city, with many historical monuments. Though it is less known that the neighbour Krakow, it is well worth a visit.
Krakow (or Cracow, whichever way you want to spell it) is a beautiful city. Apart from the Rynek Glowny (market place), Wawel Hill, Kazimierz and the numerous churches, the city has much to offer. Here are a few pictures of my walks through the city.
An incredible underground world, the Wieliczka salt mine has been in operation since the 13th century. One wanders through a maze of shafts and chambers carved by the miners.


When did Eddie Hall become the World's Strongest Man, what is the most he can lift, how tall is he and how much does he weigh?
THERE is a reason why World's Strongest Man Eddie Hall is nicknamed The Beast.
The world-record holding strongman can lift cars, pull planes with his bare hands and throw beer barrels.
When did he become the World's Strongest Man?
Eddie Hall was crowned the World's Strongest Man in 2017 in the 40th edition of the competition.
He finished first ahead of Hafthor Bjornsson and defending champion Brian Shaw.
But Hall announced after his victory that he would not defend his title – and he was dethroned by Bjornsson this year.
The 30-year-old has been crowned UK's Strongest Man six times and Britain's Strongest Man five times.
What is the most that he can lift?
Hall is the only person ever to deadlift half a tonne (500kg).
The Newcastle-born star can squat 405kg, bench press 300kg, log press 211kg and leg press 1100kg.
And he holds the world record axe lift after he heroically pushed up 216kg.
But Hall, speaking on his own website, has revealed that he has paid the price for his dedication to the sport.
He said: "I've lifted weights so heavy that I've woken up in pools of bloods.
"My eyes have almost burst from my head.
"It sounds like madness, but it's not.
"It's a man seeking to be the very best he can be."
How tall is he and how much does he weigh?
Hall claims that he eats over 12,000 calories per day – which means he has to eat a meal every two hours.
As a result, it is reported that he currently weighs 186kg – 29.9 stone.
And he stands at 1.91m – which is 6"2'.
But at his heaviest, he weighed in at 196kg – 30.8 stone.
Is Eddie on Celebrity In Solitary: Meltdown?
Yes, Eddie is taking part in Channel 5 show Celebrity In Solitary.
The show forces five celebs into solitary confinement for five days.
The programme's opening episode airs on Tuesday, September 11, from 9.15-10.15pm.
It continues on Wednesday from 9-10pm, with the final episode on Thursday 13.
In the last show the contestants face the challenge of having their water, electricity and lights turned off.
What has Eddie said about Celebs in Solitary: Meltdown?
Eddie posted on his Facebook page: "A while back I entered a room with no windows or doors, no electronics and no time.
"Just me, a bed, a sink and a s***ters!!!!
"5 days was the task!
"No human contact, no phone, no TV.
"I'll be honest and say I lost my s*** a few times but the big question is, did I manage 120 hours?"
