Q: Python: Create another python console window sharing same data I'm trying to make a debug console window appear (Needs to share data with the script), still having the main console open. The only way I know how to do it is to execute a second script, and share data with a file..
I would like for the second window to be an actual console.
I'm on Windows 7, and my script doesn't need to be very compatible.

A: If you are on windows you can use win32console module to open a second console for your child thread(since you want them to share same data) output. This is the most simple and easiest way that works if you are on windows.
Here is a sample code:
import win32console
import threading
from time import sleep

def child_thread():
    win32console.FreeConsole() #Frees child_thread from using main console
    win32console.AllocConsole() #Creates new console and all input and output of the child_thread goes to this new console

    while True:
        print("This is in child_thread console and the count is:",count)
        #prints in new console dedicated to this thread

if __name__ == "__main__":
    count = 0
    threading.Thread(target=child_thread, args=[]).start()
    while True:
        count+=1
        print("Hello from the main console - this is count:", count)
        #prints in main console
        sleep(1)
        #and whatever else you want to do in ur main process

There is also a better method of using queues from the queue module as it gives you a more control over race conditions.
Here is the win32console module documentation

A: You could consider going GUI on your application and popping to windows which will have input and output(textboxes) designed as console. Technically both windows will run as one application thus having access to the same namespaces. For wrapping python in GUI check out python Wx and Python TkInter. Best of luck.
PS And it will be pretty compatible :)


There are plenty of festivals to enjoy during the summer, but spring should definitely not be overlooked when it comes to fun times in Texas. Whether you're into food, dancing, drinking or music, there are tons of small town festivals in areas all over the state worth traveling to.
Here's a list of 10 different Texas festivals that you need to visit this spring.
Red, White & Blues on the Falls was created just last year as a way to create positive vibes in Wimberley on the anniversary of the 2015 town floods. Attendees can eat, listen to live music and swim in Cypress Creek all for a good cause. A portion of ticket sales go back to a local organization dedicated to keeping Wimberley clean and beautiful.
Elvis fans, unite! Texas' Tribute to Elvis Festival features some of the world's best Elvis tribute artists at the world-famous Southfork Ranch. Both 3 and 1 day tickets are available for this unique musical celebration.
The Cotton Gin Festival in Burton, Texas is celebrating it's 28th anniversary this year. The event celebrates the history and tradition of cotton and features antique tractors, arts and crafts, gin tours, live music and more.
Whether you're an experienced hunter, meat-lover or just in the mood for some family fun, the Turkey Fest in Henrietta is a great option. There will be carnival rides, a cook-off, pie-eating contest, turkey barrel races, live music and more. Pro teams and amateur hunters also bring their final harvest in to be scored by the Texas Game Warden.
What better way to spend a Memorial Day weekend than outside with cajun food? Go for live music and small town charm or take it a step further and enter the Fredericksburg Crawfish Festival gumbo cook-off!
The Bluebonnet Festival in Burnet draws 30,000 people a year. You name it and this festival has it: a parade, live music, destruction derby, wildflower show, carnival, rubber ducky race and more.
The National Polka Festival in Ennis, Texas is another event that's held on Memorial Day weekend each year. There is polka dancing, Czech foods, and over 19 live polka bands over the course of the three days. It's a small town celebration of all things Czech!
Showing up hungry is a requirement for this next festival. Put your seafood skills to the test at San Leon's OysterFest this year where there is an eating contest, shucking contest and cook-off. In addition to food, there are also craft vendors and live music.
Denton's Redbud Festival has been an important part of their small town since 1994. The Fest features lots of vendors with tree and plant sales, gardening supplies and local/handmade products. It's great for lovers of the outdoors and those looking for a family-friendly event. This year, if you complete a short on-site workshop, you and take home a free tree!
Did you know that Jacksonville is recorded in the Guinness World Record as making the Largest Bowl of Salsa (2,672 lbs.!). Tomato Fest is more than just food and tomato eating contests, however. There's a gospel concert, dodgeball challenge, ski show and more scheduled.

Guan Yu
Character » appears in 70 games
Guan Yu was a general serving under Liu Bei of the Kingdom of Shu. He is one of the best known historical figures throughout East Asia.
Guan Yu is a legendary figure of ancient China that lived during the collapse of the Han Dynasty and the rise of the Three Kingdoms era. He was the sworn brother of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, and later in life became one of the five Tiger generals of Shu, a kingdom founded and ruled by Liu Bei. He also for a time served the warlord Cao Cao after becoming separated from his sworn brothers, but eventually fled Cao Cao's service to return to Liu Bei's side. After his death, he became worshiped as the god of war and of righteousness. He had two sons, Guan Ping and Guan Xing. Stories and texts have also referred to a third son, Guan Suo, but this particular figure is considered fictional by historians.
Guan Yu was executed in the year 219 A.D. by the forces of Sun Quan of Wu when he refused to surrender and betray his lord Liu Bei.
Deification
Deified Guan Yu designs from SMT: Devil Summoner.
Due to his legendary, undoubtedly romanticized, exploits displaying exemplary bravery and chivalry, Guan Yu was bestowed various posthumous honors by later Chinese dynasties, eventually leading to his deification by approximately 600 AD. Worship of Guan Yu is common throughout the religions and belief systems of China, including Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. He is generally seen as a protector and bestower of boons to those who uphold the virtues of brotherhood and honesty, as he did during the Three Kingdoms period. In Buddhism, he is seen as a protector of temples and a sage of dharmic knowledge.
In the West, Guan Yu's status as a divinity is often perceived incorrectly as a god of war, owing to his great military successes as one of Shu's Five Tiger Generals. However, some later Chinese tales of Guan Yu do not preclude his famous physical prowess, such as one legend when he was called upon during the 12th century Song Dynasty to stop the great demon Chi You, who was preventing the creation of valuable salt within a saltwater lake.

Prateek Kuhad's essential quarantine playlist
By Nidhi Gupta 24 March 2020
GQ India brings you a fresh playlist each day, courtesy our favourite musicians, to keep things fresh while you #WFH
With the coronavirus pandemic spreading at the rate of human carelessness, a lot of us are beginning to work from home for the first time. It's a grand experiment, simply for the scale: And as a lot of us are finding out, no matter the number of group Zoom calls or pics of pet doggos shared on Slack, social distancing is no breeze. Primarily because there's no choice.
If you're feeling low – #StuckhomeSyndrome is as good a diagnosis as any – we've got music to the rescue. In fact, several studies have proved that music is a great way to boost productivity, beat the boredom and do a better job, faster. If you're listening to Bach on loop, even better – but that may not work with The Weeknd, regardless of how delicious his newest record is.
We asked Prateek Kuhad – the Indian singer-songwriter who makes beautiful songs, retweets with abandon and can count a former president among his listeners – to build us a playlist for easy listening in the time of quarantine. "Being at home all the time," Kuhad writes back, "while going about your day, a set of songs that is fluid and moving yet at the same time not intrusive are ideal for me – but also intrusive enough that if I pause to listen intently, they have something to offer in that moment as well. A nice middle ground."
"Here's a short playlist of songs with substance, that don't intrude," he says. One that, we reckon, will go down nice and easy with an after-hours homemade G&T tonight.
The song: With My Whole Heart
The artist: Sufjan Stevens
An earnest love song from 2019, framed in good old soft rock, from the American singer-songwriter who loves to make "strummy-strum acoustic guitar songs"
The song: Love Minus Zero
The artist: Bob Dylan
From the 1965 album Bringing It All Back Home, a straight-up love song for Sarah Lownds, the woman that Dylan married that year.
The song: Venice Bitch
The artist: Lana Del Ray
From the 2018 album Norman Fucking Rockwell! "Venice Bitch" is over nine minutes long, begins as a folk rock ballad and ends somewhere in psychedelic pop, with a hat-tip to Robert Frost somewhere in between.
The song: Good News
The artist: Mac Miller
The first single from the late rapper's posthumous album. It can be disconcerting to hear him say, "Maybe I'll lay down for a little, yeah", but there is light at the end of this tunnel.
The song: Sense
The artist: Tom Odell
A song about finding your way back to you, from the British singer-songwriter who knows the pain and pleasure of that search for self-fulfillment intimately.
The song: Big Yellow Taxi + Both Sides Now
The artist: Joni Mitchell
Here is the Canadian singer-songwriter performing for the BBC in 1969, a song that she first wrote while in Hawaii and which, over five decades later, continues to speak to the importance of not forgetting the bigger picture.
The song: Nobody
The artist: Mitski
More cautionary tales pegged on global warming from the Japanese-American singer songwriter's 2018 album Be A Cowboy – as danceable as it is dejected.

FXLoader Cloud Service fully automates the load of FX rates into your Oracle Cloud Applications, for converting foreign currency transactions.
Oracle Cloud Applications are SaaS applications built on Oracle Fusion and include Oracle Sales Cloud and Oracle Financials Cloud (part of Oracle ERP Cloud). FXLoader Cloud Service is a back end application running on Oracle's Platform as a Service (PaaS). A web service is invoked to pull the latest rates from the chosen source, process cross rates and load them via another web service into your Oracle Cloud Applications.
FXLoader is the first application, globally, to integrate with Oracle Financials Cloud on the Oracle Cloud Marketplace.
Read our 5 Star reviews here.
Choose from some of the most trusted sources of exchange rates; including OANDA, Xignite, Reuters, XE and 40+ Central Banks, including The European Central Bank. The subscription to these services is included in your annual FXLoader Cloud Service subscription.
Oracle Cloud Applications (Oracle ERP Cloud and Oracle Sales Cloud) provide extensive multi-currency functionality. Oracle converts all transactions in foreign currency to your functional currency using a defined exchange rate – supplier and customer invoices and payments, GL journals, purchase orders, sales orders, etc. These exchange rates are known as daily rates in Oracle and are shared across all applications.
If rates are entered incorrectly, your account balances will be wrong but the problem may not become evident until weeks or months later.
In addition, with the Oracle Cloud Applications, you don't get access to the back-end of the application or database in order to build an interface.
FXLoader provides a fully automated interface to load rates from leading sources, directly into Oracle ERP Cloud and Oracle Sales Cloud. Set it up to run on a schedule you choose and it will load rates in the background – no user action or checking is required.
FXLoader Cloud Service is a separate cloud application, built on Oracle's Platform as a Service (PaaS). Configuration is set up in this application; a scheduled process then gets rates from your chosen source(s), processes them according to your configuration, and loads them into your Oracle ERP Cloud/Oracle Sales Cloud application.
If you are running Oracle Fusion Applications on premise, or in a private cloud environment, FXLoader Cloud Service can still load currency rates.
The web service used to populate the rates is available from Fusion Release 8 onwards. Enabling the use of FXLoader in the same way as those running Oracle's cloud offerings.
FXLoader is running great and doing exactly what we need. It is working perfectly…we are glad we found it.
The setup was super quick and hassle-free, but the thing that impresses me most is the on-going support that FXLoader offers. I wish more companies were as efficient as this.
I think it is a brilliant product. Installation and implementation process are superb and very quick.
The product was very easy to implement. It runs without issues.
FXLoader keeps all our FX rates up to date, every day from the sources we need. It should be an automatic choice for anyone using Oracle ERP Cloud.
FX Loader has worked out absolutely great for SIM. It is an extremely easy and seamless integration. Setup took less than 15 minutes. We have rarely ever encountered any issues with this. Additionally, the Customer Support is superb compared to any other Vendors I have dealt with. The team is also very proactive, which is absolutely amazing! Best currency exchange rate application I have used to date.
FXLoader has been a great tool that has saved us time and error-proofed our processes. Your team has been outstanding, the implementation was seamless, and I am overwhelmingly pleased with the results we are seeing!
The interface is working very well – we have encountered no issues since enabling.
Your help during implementation was incredible and I will always recommend your product and support. Lack of failures and problems tells everything – we are very satisfied.
FXLoader has been a tremendous addition to our Oracle ERP configuration. It runs seamlessly each night loading 500 + currency pairs.
We've been very satisfied with the service we are getting from FXLoader. The interface works extremely well.
After talking to our finance team the feeling on FXLoader is "It just works".
The fast and easy set up, coupled with first class customer support easily makes FXLoader the best choice for Oracle Cloud Applications.
The product is working as it was promised and the implementation process was very smooth and issue free. You guys have excellent customer service.
I have to say that FXLoader was by far the "easiest" ERP process I've come across. It's a no-brainer!
Honestly, this was the easiest system installation we have. I am really glad that we found you.
I have used the application since my first day in the Oracle Cloud and it works perfectly. I also get excellent service.
I really did appreciate your quick responses and willingness to work with us on our schedules and within our processes!

'Joker' Composer Hildur Guonadottir Wins Emmy for HBO's 'Chernobyl'
To capture the experience of Chernobyl, the composer recorded sounds at a power plant in Lithuania.
Icelandic composer Hildur Guðnadóttir nabbed her first Emmy for the haunting score to HBO limited series Chernobyl on Sunday night at the 2019 Creative Arts Emmys. She also recently scored Todd Phillips' Joker, which last weekend won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival.
The HBO series chronicles the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear plant disaster and its aftermath, and to capture the experience of Chernobyl, the composer actually recorded sounds at a power plant in Lithuania, where much of the filming took place.
"There weren't any traditional instruments used. I made instruments out of these sounds that I found," Guðnadóttir explained in a recent episode of The Hollywood Reporter podcast Behind the Screen. "I spend a lot of time recording room tones, the hums ... My favorite solo 'instrument' of the score was a door leading to the engine room next to the pump room that had a symphony of sounds."
Guðnadóttir beat out composers for Escape at Dannemora, Good Omens, True Detective and When They See Us.
The 2019 Creative Arts Emmy Awards took place over two nights (Sept. 14 and 15) at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles and will air on FXX on Saturday, Sept. 21 at 8 p.m. ET/PT, ahead of the Primetime Emmy Awards telecast on Fox on Sunday, Sept. 22 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.


In recent decades the freedom movement has been operating under the assumption that the Restoration of America will come by finding the right candidate.
A large number of people in the GOP worked diligently to create such candidates.
But the candidates either fail to get elected or fall short once in office.
I believe that the assumption that the restoration of freedom will come through a political candidate is absurd.
I've come to the conclusion that the best path for restoring freedom will come by a political movement formed around an issue.
The most promising issue is Health Care Reform. I spent several years working on a reform proposal called "The Medical Savings and Loan." This program could help in the repeal of ObamaCare by demanding the creation of a free market alternative to insurance.
To my dismay, I've been unable to find any Libertarian, Tea Party or GOP group with enough interest in restoring freedom within 700 miles of Salt Lake City.
The GOP in Utah is fully invested in ObamaCare and has no interest in repealing it.
I fear that the opportunity to repeal ObamaCare has passed.
I am unwilling to give up hope on America.
It is possible that tax reform will become the driving issue of the 2016 election.
I contend that, if the freedom movement came up with a compelling tax reform proposal, that the freedom movement would win the day.
For the last several days I've been blogging about a tax reform called "The Object Tax."
The Object Tax is named for the Object Oriented Design technique used in smartphones and other advanced systems.
The Object Tax is named for a design method. This design starts by creating an abstract model of the current income tax. We would rewrite the code so that taxation could be implemented as either an income tax or as an account based tax hosting by a bank or other financial firm.
The design is as follows. The government will write the basic requirements for the tax. Banks, employers and other financial institutions would then write programs that implement the new tax.
The first goal of the object tax is to minimize disruption. The tax can be implemented as the current income tax. Companies that are heavily invested in their current HR systems will not be forced to make major changes.
This tax reform has minimal disruption.
Think of it like the phone system. The cellular phone system was able to encapsulate and extend the line network. We did not need to disrupt telephone service to create cellphones. Smartphones extend cellphones with internet connectivity. We did not need to destroy the cellphone system to create smart phones.
A bank might implement the Object Tax as follows.
You would have your entire paycheck deposited into a Tax Aware account. Customers will pay a progressive tax when they withdraw money.
Lets say you have a thousand dollars put in your account and your calculated rate is 20%. When you withdraw the $1000 you will pay a $200 tax and you will get $800 in cash.
In this implementation, you pay the tax when you prepare to spend money.
The process of preparing to spend money is called "budgeting."
Collecting taxes in the budgeting process will have the same, of not stronger, psychological effect as taxing at the point of sale.
The great thing is that the design of the Object Tax allows us to keep the progressive tax rate that many Americans love.
I put forward this idea because I believe the Object Tax could be a compelling issue for the freedom movement.
I happen to love system design. Designing an object based system is the most intellectually intriguing tasks that one can undertake.
If there was a group interested in advancing the freedom movement through tax reform, that group of people could contact me. I could then explain why this tax proposal would enhance the freedom movement.
I live in Utah. If someone was interested in pursuing this idea, they could contact me. The Object Tax could be a winning issue for the freedom movement if someone had enough interest in freedom to pursue an idea.

Students, teachers challenge gender stereotypes in light of Women in Construction Week
Senior Sophia Hanna works on the roof of the "Tiny Home" during construction class. Hanna said she believes more women should take construction classes. "I think you need both a man's view and a woman's view in order for things to function properly and to make changes that will be the most beneficial for us," she said.
Lorna Ding and Claire He
Senior Sophia Hanna climbs a ladder to work on the roof of the "Tiny Home," a house that will have running water, electricity and gas when it is completed. Hanna is one of two girls out of the 27 students in her class.
"At first, I didn't know that advanced construction trades was a class that was offered here. So when I heard about it, I was like, 'Oh my gosh, I want to be in that class and maybe pursue a career in Construction Management (CMT),'" Hanna said. "And then I toured the Purdue Polytechnic (Institute) and I was the only girl. I was sitting there and I was like, 'This is all boys. Is this how my classes are going to be for the next four years?'"
Hanna's experience isn't an anomaly. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 8.4% of construction managers were women in 2017. Advanced construction trades teacher Larry Griggs said 14% of students in construction at this school are women.
"I'd say the (number of female students) has gotten better but it's not good. I mean, two out of 27, that's not good. We need to have more females represented in the construction industry," Griggs said.
Senior Sophia Hanna points at a model of the "Tiny Home." She said when she realized CHS offered advanced construction classes, she began to consider a career in construction management. (Zoe Tu)
For Tejasvi Tadikonda, automotive student and sophomore, she said she doubted her abilities and felt a need to prove herself as a female in the automotive class.
"It was very intimidating to be in a predominately-male class because I felt like I had to prove my worth when there was nothing I really had to prove to them," Tadikonda said. "People always talk about their female hero stories like, 'Yeah, I did this and there were a lot of male people there and everyone looked up to me' and it really does not feel like that at all."
Hanna said while she also feels a need to prove herself as a woman in construction, she said everyone has to prove themselves.
"Right when I joined the class, I had a lot of boys try to take things out of my hands or tell me how to do something even though I already knew how to do it," Hanna said. "But I think regardless of gender or race, you need to prove yourself either way."
As a female assistant professor of CMT at Purdue University, Luciana Debs said her students often doubt her expertise.
"On our evaluations, I believe they evaluate women and male professors very differently. (The bias) becomes very clear on the evaluations and the ratings, and there's research about it showing that it's usually lower for us," Debs said. "Sometimes, they don't think I have as much experience as some male faculty when it's just about the same."
For example, according to a study led by Lillian MacNell, researcher at North Carolina State University, students rated male instructors significantly higher than female instructors for professionalism, fairness, and promptness. When a male and female instructor posted grades two days after a test, students rated the male instructor a 4.35 out of 5 for promptness while the female instructor received a 3.55 out of 5.
Tadikonda said she thinks women tend to be looked down upon due to society's portrayal that women are not as strong as men.
"I get that, biologically, women aren't as strong as men. But to take apart a simple bolt or unscrew a simple thing—we can do that. Whenever I had trouble unscrewing a bolt or something, immediately a guy would just take it over for me rather than letting me try it on my own," she said.
With advancements in technology, Griggs said construction jobs have become less physically demanding.
"There are very tough jobs in construction. There are a lot of boys that couldn't handle it. There are a lot of girls who would not be able to handle the physical part of it but there are a lot that can," Griggs said. "One thing that I see happening now is that we have more equipment to make it easier for anybody to use heavy equipment."

Regardless, Debs said people view construction management as a conflict between strength and femininity for women.
She said, "(Many people think) you can't be a girly-girl and still work in construction, and that's farther from the truth. But if you show that you're fragile or paint your nails, people won't take you as seriously. (People think) the woman who works in construction is less of a woman, which is something we're trying to break and show that you can be just as good of a construction manager."
In fact, Griggs said his best students have typically been female students.
"Sometimes, we get boys into the construction field who think they know everything about construction whereas a lady may come in and not know as much, but they spend more time learning how to do things the correct way."
Tadikonda said she agreed and said women tend to undermine their abilities. She said more people, female and male, should take automotive classes.
"(Girls) think (automotive class is) too hard but it's really not. And I think everyone should have basic automotive knowledge. It's appalling how many people want a car but don't want to know anything about a car," she said.
Likewise, Hanna said more female students should take construction classes and consider CMT as a possible career.
"We will always be living in buildings and all of that, and I think you need both a man's view and a woman's view in order for things to function properly and to make changes that will be the most beneficial for us," Hanna said.
Debs said not only do females have a lot to offer to the construction industry, but pursuing CMT also benefits female students.
"I think people don't emphasize enough about how construction allows you to learn about other people; you meet owners, engineers and you have to talk to the site workers," Debs said. "We think about it from a technological side but it's really about the people."
Griggs said knowledge obtained from construction classes is useful even for those who do not want a career in construction.
Senior Sophia Hanna nails a panel into the roof of the "Tiny Home," which will have running water, electricity and gas when completed. "I honestly think it's kind of cool (being one of the only girls)," Hanna said, "because every time that is the situation, I always end up being really good friends with the girls that are in the classes with me, just because we're only the girls so we get to bond a little bit more." (Zoe Tu)
"If not going into the area of construction in college or trade school, just for personal home ownership, being able to use the tools and equipment we use in construction is very valuable for everybody," he said.
Ultimately, in light of Women in Construction Week, which took place March 6 through March 12, Griggs said society should break the gender stereotypes surrounding women in construction and automotive industries.
"For a girl to take construction, they get seen differently," Griggs said. "If you think about it, your wife is going to come home and she's going to have dirty clothes and cuts on her hands and her hair is going to be all sweaty and stuff. That's not a look that some people perceive (of women) and that's the thing that we have to break. It is okay for anybody who's capable of doing (construction) to do it if they want to."

National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall 中正紀念堂
Twit about it!
Share to Weibo
This memorial hall was built in memory of Chiang Kai-shek, the first president of the Republic of China. Work on the hall began in 1976, a year after President Chiang passed away. Design by C.C. Yang, who was also the architect for The Grand Hotel, the memorial hall is white with a blue roof, representing the dominant colors in the ROC flag; while the emblem of the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) adorns the vaulted ceiling. A bronze statue of Chiang looks west symbolically to the Presidential Office Building and mainland China. The front plaza of the hall is also a major venue for democratic assemblies.

We went to CKS Memorial Hall in the afternoon. As usual, the place is packed of tourists. There were floats covered with colorful flowers which added excitement to the people taking photos. The CKS Memorial stood proud as the sun sets. We were also able to watch the changing of guards.

Lovely gardens but not for the less mobile.
The Memorial Hall itself was partially closed for renovations when we went and as the crowd was around 6 deep in the one area available to watch the changing of the guard, we didn't see a thing. We were there 15 mins beforehand and it was raining so the people at the front must have been standing around for ages. Also there are a lot of stairs so this is not one for the less mobile. The gardens, however, are really lovely with bridges over fish ponds and lots of trees and flowers. The concert hall at the other end of the avenue from the memorial has a very nice coffee shop and gift shop.

Watch the changing of the guard
The changing of the guard occurs every day at the CKS Memorial Hall on the hour. It is precision drill at its best. It is always well attended, get there early. The museum underneath the monument describes the life and times of CKS. He led the non-Communist forces to Taiwan and guided the island through its first turbulent years. Chiang Kai-shek may or may not have been a hero, but you can't ignore him.

Yes, a giant seated statue of Chiang Kai-Shek sits in a Memorial Hall that dominates the park and is the centerpiece of a collection of architectural buildings. You must come here because the setting of the Hall along with the National Theatre and Concert Hall and Entry Gate create a stunning architectural square in the park. Perhaps one of the grandest in the world. The Hall itself requires you to ascend a number of stairs where you get great views. The hall with the seated statue does have an armed guard that changes every hour and some like it, I found it a bit over-the-top. From the top floor where the statue is you can take an elevator down to the bottom floor where there are shops, other galleries and the thing I liked best—a biography on Chiang Kai-Shek who is a very controversial figure here in Taiwan. Given that the history museum in this town is closed, this is where you can learn about the life of the general. Overall we were in this building about an hour.

It's anyone's guess why the Queen of Soul would want to leave family and friends in Detroit to move to a place like the District. Both cities, after all, have their share of urban flight, crime, and famously unresponsive municipal government. But that won't stop Aretha Franklin from packing up her Cadillac and heading to D.C. for good. Aretha, who frequently entertains at the White House and appeared at the Washington Hilton just weeks ago for the glitzy Leukemia Ball, may simply be sick of the commute. Or perhaps the reported $80,000 honorarium she received for the Hilton performance helped endear the city to her. Although sources say she's been scoping out Georgetown, a spokesperson from Arista Records clammed up when asked exactly when, why, and where Aretha would build her capital nest. In any case, Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.), who chats with Aretha regularly in her hometown church, denies that the District's gain is Michigan's loss: "Detroit is not losing Aretha. Rather, we are sharing her with Washington, D.C….She'll always be a Detroiter."
One year ago, hordes of angry students and faculty from the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) spilled onto Connecticut Avenue to protest proposed cuts to the university's budget. Police stopped traffic for nearly 15 hours, Mayor Barry and D.C. Council Chairman Dave Clarke mustered a show of solidarity, and UDC funding assumed a prominent spot on the local political agenda. Last Friday, UDC activists tried to stage the PR coup one more time. Posters on campus called for a "day of absence," encouraging students to abandon classrooms in an act of protest over cuts that have dropped 125 professors from the school's faculty. But Connecticut Avenue commuters weren't forced into any detours this year. Most students ignored the declaration and simply attended class. Perhaps the student body had trouble identifying with the International Socialist Organization (ISO), whose clenched-fist symbol dominated the signs and banners at the protest. Twenty minutes after bellowing that they were "fired up and ain't gonna take it no more," the protesters called it a day—by 12:45.
Residents of the Woodley Park neighborhood in Ward 3 live in nice houses, eat in fine restaurants, and take nighttime walks on quiet, tree-lined streets. But they have a hell of a time finding a parking spot—a difficulty they're blaming on their Ward 1 neighbors across the bridge in Adams Morgan and Kalorama. Woodley Parkers have a history of fighting off proposals by the city to stick their neighborhood in Ward 1's parking zone—a move that would protect them from meter maids in Adams Morgan but make them vulnerable in Ward 3 shopping areas like Cleveland Park. And when the city compromised and allowed motorists with both Ward 1 and Ward 3 parking stickers to park in Woodley Park, neighborhood activists complained again, charging that Ward 1 interlopers were clogging their streets. Early last month, the pressure paid off when the city quietly posted signs for Ward 3-only parking. But Delphine Shepard, the District's parking management chief, says a new wave of complaints will bring the dual-zone signs back. Woodley Park Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner Cheryl Opacinch, meanwhile, says Ward 1 vehicles still crowd the area. "My guess is that we're not getting any enforcement," she says, "so it hasn't made any difference."

Trevor Noah's "Daily Show" Debut
South African comedian, Trevor Noah will begin hosting The Daily Show on September 28th.
Comedy Central announced the date for Noah's debut, today, along with the release of a brief video of the new host settling into the studio.
It seems like Noah could not be happier that he is replacing longtime host Jon Stewart who stepped down earlier this year.
In 2014, Noah joined "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" as a contributor.
The new host made his U.S. television debut in 2012 on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and has also appeared on "Late Show with David Letterman," becoming the first South African stand-up comedian to appear on either late night show.
Rookie Jon Stewart will film his final episode on August 6th, before Noah takes over.

Mike Modano tears up as he walks away from NHL after 21 seasons
DALLAS - Mike Modano walked away from the NHL on Friday with tears, signing an honorary one-day contract so he could retire after 21 seasons as a member of the Dallas Stars.
The 41-year-old native of Livonia, Mich., broke down in tears several times during his final news conference in Dallas. He retires as the NHL's all-time leading scorer among American-born players in goals (561) and points (1,374).
"You wonder what this day would be like," Modano told a crowd of about 200 family, friends, former teammates and members of the Stars front office. "It's pretty overwhelming."
Modano was the first overall pick of the 1988 draft by the Minnesota North Stars, and the speedy, flashy centre was the face of the franchise when the team moved to Dallas in 1993. Modano helped the team win its only Stanley Cup in 1999.
He played what turned out to be his final season with the Detroit Red Wings, the team he rooted for as a kid. Modano appeared in only 40 games for Detroit due to injuries, but he wanted to retire as a Star in his adopted hometown.
High on his list of accomplishments was playing primarily for the same team.
"I look back at 21 years with one franchise, it made me the most proud of anything...it's phenomenal," he said.
Toward the end of a session that lasted almost an hour and included taped highlights of his career, his parents came to the podium and hugged him, causing Modano to shed a few more tears.
Modano holds many of the Stars franchise records, including games played (1,459), goals (557), assists (802), playoff games (174) and playoff points (145). Modano said his body couldn't withstand another year of hockey's wear and tear.
"You think you can play forever...it's obvious, physically things don't match up anymore," Modano said.
Modano's presence helped sell hockey in Texas, and in the Sun Belt. When the Stars arrived, there were only a couple of rinks in North Texas shopping malls. Now, there rinks all over the area, producing players who've gone on to star in college and get drafted by NHL teams.
"We always thought that if you got (fans) into the arena, they'd fall in love with the game," Modano said. "When we came here, nobody knew that it would turn out to be something like this."
Modano left his mark on former teammates.
"What a treat to be able to play with the best ever American-born player," Dallas winger Steve Ott said. "He's simply the best Dallas Star to wear the jersey. He's an instant Hall of Famer. He's Mr. Dallas Star."
Modano was vague about his plans. He said he will do some colour work on Stars local telecasts, and there has been speculation that he could get a front-office position with the team once ownership has finally been resolved.
"It's hard to say what's next," Modano said. "It's going to take time. Maybe some broadcasting ... nothing written in stone yet."

Edinburgh's First Chinese Gentleman
This talk at Lauriston Castle will recount the remarkable story of William Macao, the first Chinese gentleman to settle in Britain where he spent 50 years living in Edinburgh.
About Edinburgh's First Chinese Gentleman
10.30am to 11.30am
Lauriston Castle
2 Cramond Road South, Edinburgh West EH4 6AD
This talk will recount the remarkable story of the first Chinese to settle in Britain. William Macao came to Scotland in the mid-1770s and after briefly working as a servant on the Black Isle, moved to Edinburgh, where he lived for over 50 years. He worked his way up from a servant at the Board of Excise to senior accountant. His remarkable life is all the more so as he has the unique status of being the only person since 1707 to have been legally designated a Scotsman.
On retiring after a long career in the arts, Barclay Price has taken up historical research, including tracing all the residents of his street in the New Town. He also acts as a voluntary historical researcher for Edinburgh World Heritage. A chance discovery of William Macao led to Price researching his previously unrecorded life, and this led to his writing, The Chinese in Britain – A History of Visitors and Settlers (Amberley Books). This is the first-ever account of the lives of Chinese travellers to our shores, from the first in 1687 to the 20th century, and includes seamen, students, cooks, brides, diplomats, jugglers, servants, sportsmen, bureaucrats, writers and 'curiosities'.
All of our lecture mornings cost £9 and include a friendly lecture where you have the opportunity to meet our guest lecturer, have coffee and cakes and get a special tour.
Take advantage of our special offer, book 10 lectures for £80.
While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Edinburgh's First Chinese Gentleman are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.

But even while the landmark law remains in place, the rollback of abortion access across the US is already well underway — and women who want to safely terminate their pregnancies face an increasing number of roadblocks. Enter Aid Access, a new online service through which women can obtain medical abortion pills, mifepristone and misoprostol, to take at home. As first reported by the Atlantic's Olga Khazan, Rebecca Gomperts, a Dutch physician and activist, launched the service six months ago in response to overwhelming US demand. "I got an email from a woman who was living in a car with two kids," Gomperts told Khazan. "Something had to be done." Aid Access offers what Gomperts's other service, Women on Web, has been doing for years for women in other countries with restricted healthcare systems: a way to get a safe abortion. (She set up a separate US site because she feared powerful pro-life groups would try to shut her operation down.) Although abortion is still legal in the US, self-managed abortions have been considered criminal in many states, and women have — in rare cases — faced arrests, jail time, or police investigation. When the Food and Drug Administration told Vox, "Mifepristone for termination of pregnancy is not legally available over the Internet." When the agency approved the drugs in 2000, the government mandated the medications must be handed out by qualified healthcare providers in a doctor's office, clinic, or hospital, and that they can't be written on a prescription and dispensed at a pharmacy.

Poxet-60 tablets are used to treat premature ejaculation (PE), which is one of the most common causes of sexual dysfunction in men. It is defined as early ejaculation with minimal sexual stimulation before of soon after penetration and can cause distress and problems with relationships. Poxet-60 is used to improve control over ejaculation and increase the time interval before ejaculation occurs during intercourse, for men with persistent or recurrent PE. Poxet-60 tablets contain dapoxetine 60mg, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that is used specifically for premature ejaculation (PE), as it has a rapid onset of action, with maximum effect within 1-2 hours and a short half-life, which means that it is rapidly eliminated from the body within 24 hours. Ejaculation is a reflex that is mediated by the sympathetic nervous system. When sexual stimulation has reached a certain threshold, sensory nerve cells in the spinal cord are activated and nerve impulses are sent to the brain, which then send messages back to motor neurones controlling the muscles in the penis that contract to effect ejaculation. The ejaculation reflex is thought to be mediated by serotonin, a specific brain chemical or neurotransmitter that is involved is transmitting nerve signals, which enables brain cells to communicate.

Furosemide is a type of medicine called a diuretic. It's used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure and oedema (a build up of fluid in the body). It's also sometimes used to help you pee when your kidneys aren't working properly. Diuretics are sometimes called "water pills/tablets" because they make you pee more. It comes as tablets and as a liquid that you swallow. It can also be given by injection, but this is usually only done in hospital. Furosemide sometimes comes mixed with other diuretics or potassium. It's usual to take furosemide once a day in the morning. Furosemide (Lasix), a strong diuretic, may be prescribed to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) if your current medications aren't working well. Furosemide stimulates your body to produce more urine so that it can be excreted. Less fluid in the body means less blood volume for your body to push through your cardiovascular system, which brings about a drop in blood pressure. Be careful not to stand up too quickly if you're taking furosemide, which also can cause your blood pressure to drop. If you're taking other medications for high blood pressure, your doctor will likely reduce your dosage of these drugs before giving you furosemide.

Walker, John (1787 - April 19, 1873)
John Walker (1787 - April 19, 1873) was a British mapseller, engraver, lithographer, hydrographer, geographer, draughtsman and publisher active in London during the 19th century. Walker published both nautical charts and geographical maps. His nautical work is particular distinguished as he was an official hydrographer for the British East India Company, a position, incidentally, also held by his father of the same name. Walker's maps mostly published after 1827, were primarily produced in partnership with his brother Charles Walker under the imprint J. and C. Walker. Among their joint projects are more than 200 maps for the influential Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge Atlas (SDUK). In addition they published numerous charts for James Horsburgh and the British Admiralty Hydrographic Office, including Belcher's important map of Hong Kong and Carless' exploratory map of Karachi. The J. and C. Walker firm continued to publish after both Walkers died in the 1870s.

Just found out a Witness works with me-ruined my day
by Quandry 20 Replies latest jw friends
Just remember you can only be responsible for yourself and your actions. She has to be responsible for hers. She seems to be good at keeping under the radar since she only mentioned her religion when forced to do so doesn't sound like a super spiritual in your face JW to me. It could be there is hope for her yet.
Don't panic.
You might turn out to be the best thing that has happened to her.
Paralipomenon
I'd caution you to be careful. You know how elders love a good witch hunt.
I'm sure if she tells the elders they will be excited if they can chase down and disfellowship someone who dared leave "the flock".
leavingwt
I know the feeling. I'm sorry that this happened to you.
I once found myself in a training class, sitting across from a JW who didn't know me. It just felt bizarre.
sorry to hear your situation. I just hope that, I do not to work in close proximity with the two witnesses.
I said I wasn't df'd so she could still speak to me. She just stood there
Unfortunately, it's one and the same to most JWs. They simply can't fathom that someone could have "the truth" and just leave it behind. Obviously you must be living a depraved and amoral life.
jeckle
I know the feeling since leaving I've had similar situations. 3 work mates I'm higher on the food chain then all 3 .they all tried to reconvert me a little . 1 unfriended me when Iposted washtowel cult field circus field serve us randomly. And now he acts like no big deal didnt say a word about it. I said don't worry I won't bring up religion we'll just get along for work . And he's cool with me still. But I was the one to speak up.
I work with a jw...for the last 7 years. They have limited work interaction with me or my area. We did not know each other before since she was in a different congregation and side of the circuit. She has no interest in broadcasting her jw status. Just cordial hellos as we pass by each other. But no "spiritual" conversations. She had a sad event regarding her marriage that I was aware of that the gossips at work tried to get me to talk about...no way. (see gossips are everywhere, male and female) I never volunteer info as to my "standing."
Just found out after a whole year at work that my boss is a Witness.
When I said I used to be one, she said that a person has to WANT to do it, can't force it.
I really like her. She has not changed in her dealings with me at all.
Quandry
Just an update.
I couldn't help myself. I looked for this young woman today...found out she is twenty.
I asked her if she was going to school. She said that she'd be starting classes in the fall to become a dental hygienist. I asked if that took a four year degree, and she stated that one could start working after a two year degree but four was recommended. I told her that I knew that the WTS was speaking against higher education, and she said she did not think so. I told her that elders spoke against it but sent their own kids to college, and that at a congregation I used to go to a young woman was disobedient, getting a law degree, and was invited to Bethel as a single sister, so they do reward disobedience. As she began to look uncomfortable and back away somewhat, I said my husband was an elder for twenty years, and know that they had a directive that elders could be removed if they tried to encourage education. At this point she said she had heard something about it.
I said that perhaps she had better be careful not to encourage anyone to go to school, but that I was glad she was getting an education or she could end up like me, someone who wanted to be "Godly" and obeyed the council and ended up in a dead end job with no opportunity for advancement, and very little money. I told her many were like me..close to retirement age but couldn't even think about it.
By this time you could see the desperation in her eyes...she wanted to get away, and was saying that she had to be someplace in the building, and started walking away. I just wished her success and left.
If I have planted a seed, wonderful. At the very least, her guilt level should go up.


It is advisable for everybody including doctors and dentists to avail of disability insurance. According to the AMA's Survey only around 70% of physicians insure themselves against disability. But the process and the products are a little complicated and not well informed.
To overcome this problem a detailed insurance guide has been prepared for physicians and dentists with advice and tips to get the best policy to meet their requirements and also to get the best buy and save money. All need disability insurance to provide for them, when they are no longer able to work.
When is the Best Time to Purchase Disability Insurance?
If you ask an agent which is the best time to have an insurance policy he will definitely tell you it is now. Well that is quite correct as insurance policy depends on certain factors. The first being overall health and age. The younger the person the better and lesser is the premium. The older the person gets the bigger is the risk the company takes to insure.
Doctors and dentists in fellowship or residency will have to pay insurance premium of around $5000 -$6500 whatever be their field of speciality or the present income. After completing the fellowship or residency they can increase their premium. They can also calculate their living expenses for the month and accordingly fix the premium amount on money they will require if they should be disabled. In this way if anything happens to them they are well provided.
How does the Disability Insurance Work?
If you become disabled you will get the amount you have made provisions for after providing all the documents to substantiate your disability from your physician. If the policy is an individual policy then you will get it free of tax.
If you buy a disability insurance policy in the twenties then you will pay far less premium then buying a policy when you are thirty five or forty. Gender of the person availing insurance is also considered, like a male is expected to have less risk than a female so the premium charged for a man is less.
Many times the speciality that you have chosen in your medical profession may also have more premiums then some other speciality. Very often the premium amount depends on the state in which you are located.
There are different insurance companies each charging a different premium depending on the occupation. When deciding to buy an insurance policy it is better to know from agents which insurance company gives a better cover and premium depending on medical speciality and occupation classification.
