"Maybe she just wasn't meant for us"
Last week, our stay-out helper's story, told over a span of days, was about a five-month-old baby in her neighborhood who had died because of "tigdas itim." I didn't know it then, but she was referring to German measles.
The parents already had eight (father side) and four (mother side) children before they had this one, she said, and for hours each day, they had needed to leave their new baby at a relative's house so they could do whatever they did to make a living.
Unfortunately for the baby, our helper said, the house stood beside a tree that was home to an elemental. It may have been annoyed by the baby's non-stop crying. The parents were warned by a hilot not to bring the baby back there, but they refused to listen. Besides, they needed to work.
One day, the baby got sick, black spots appearing all over her body. Our helper explained that it was different from the usual measles because the spots were blackish instead of red. The baby also had high fever. They brought her to a clinic, but she never got better and, towards the end, vomited and pooped thick blackish liquid.
There was more drama over the next few days after the baby passed away: about the doctor giving the wrong medicine, about the family not having anyone stay up with the baby at night during the wake, about a cousin having to file for death benefits instead because the baby's parents just moved here and had no IDs, about an insensitive relative roasting eggplant (apparently a huge no-no) while the wake was ongoing, about the baby not having been baptized so she might end up as tiyanak, and about the parents being missing when the priest came for final blessing.
For a few days, our helper said, you couldn't talk to the mother. She wasn't hysterical with grief; it was as if she was stunned by everything that was happening. The father, on the other hand, was resigned to his loss. "Hindi talaga siguro para sa amin," he said. Maybe she just wasn't meant for us.
I wanted to say that while not all deaths are preventable, this one was, but I didn't want to start a conversation with her that would surely lead to what--or who--is killing our children.
Instead, I asked whether her children and her children's children had been vaccinated. She said yes, and I left it at that.

Three militants killed, two soldiers wounded in Kulgam gunfight: Kashmir Police
Three militants were killed in a gunfight with the government forces in Laroo village of south Kashmir's Kulgam district on Sunday, police said.
21 Oct, 2018, 4:41 pm
Three militants were killed in a gunfight with the government forces in Laroo village of south Kashmir's Kulgam district on Sunday, police said.
"Three militants killed. (Their) identity being ascertained," police said on Twitter.
Earlier, an official said that a gunfight broke out after the forces launched a cordon and search operation (CASO) in Laroo village, barely six km from main town, after receiving information about the presence of militants in the area.
"As the cordon was tightened, the militants fired at the forces, triggering a gunfight in which two soldiers were wounded," he said, adding that the injured were shifted to a hospital.
Internet and phone services have been suspended in the district.

Q: Accessing masterpage properties from child pages in ASP.net VB I have masterpage.master.vb where I have properties, such as;
 Private _SQLerror As String
    Public Property SQLerror() As String
        Get
            Return _SQLerror
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _SQLerror = String.Empty

        End Set
    End Property

Then I have an aspx page in which I need to use this property in, such as;
 If **[masterpage property sqlerror]** = Nothing Then
            InternalSQLErrLabel.Text = ("No Errors Reported")
        End If

Can anyone give me an idea how to go about this? I've tried searching but most articles talk in the context of web controls...
Thanks.

A: Here you go:
How to: Reference ASP.NET Master Page Content
From the article, it looks like
If Master.SQLerror = Nothing Then
    InternalSQLErrLabel.Text = ("No Errors Reported")
End If

should work for you.
Just be sure to add the MasterType directive as described or you might get a type conversion error.  (Or you could use a variable of your master page type instead of Master, as daRoBBie suggests in his answer.)
I have created a test Web site just to test this out, and it works.  Here is the full source of the site:

Site1.Master:
<%@ Master Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeBehind="Site1.master.vb" Inherits="WebApplication1.Site1" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        This is the Master Page content.
        <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
        </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Site1.Master.vb:
Public Partial Class Site1
    Inherits System.Web.UI.MasterPage

    Private _SQLerror As String

    Public Property SQLerror() As String
        Get
            Return _SQLerror
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _SQLerror = String.Empty
        End Set
    End Property
End Class

WebForm1.aspx:
<%@ Page Title="" Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" MasterPageFile="~/Site1.Master"
    CodeBehind="WebForm1.aspx.vb" Inherits="WebApplication1.WebForm1" %>

<%@ MasterType VirtualPath="~/Site1.Master" %>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" runat="server">
    This is the Content Page content.
    <asp:Label ID="InternalSQLErrLabel" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
</asp:Content>

WebForm1.aspx.vb:
Public Partial Class WebForm1
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Master.SQLerror = Nothing Then
            InternalSQLErrLabel.Text = ("No Errors Reported")
        End If
    End Sub

End Class

A: you can cast the masterpage to the correct type:
MyMasterPageType m = (MyMasterPageType)Master;

Then you can access your properties:
m.SqlError

If you have multiple master pages, let all your masterpages inherit from an interface, and cast the masterpage to that interface.

A: You can use <%@ MasterType %> also for this.

A: If you have followed the steps in Andy West's answer and have one or many compile errors reading: Foo is not a member of 'System.Web.UI.MasterPage', make sure that they are the only compile error in your list. If there are any other compile errors that need to be fixed, they should be fixed before you continue troubleshooting your MasterPage.
These other compile errors may be preventing the compiler from parsing your MasterPage and detecting the extra properties. Once they are resolved, do a full recompile.

Q: How to hide/show view in Titanium? I am new to Titanium.
I have taken 3 view and  want to hide show that view on button click for iPhone app.
Any idea how to achieve this?

A: You can hide / show a view very easily, heres a self contained example:
var win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
var view = Ti.UI.createView({
   width : 100,
   height : 100,
   backgroundColor : 'red'
});

var redView = Ti.UI.createView({
    title : 'Hide / Show Red View',
    bottom : 0,
    width : 200,
    height : 35
});
var visible = true;
button.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
   if(visible)  {
       redView.hide();
   } else {
       redView.show();
   }
   visible = !visible;
});

win.add(redView);
win.add(button);
win.open();

A: While the other answer is certainly useful, two other (slightly) different methods for doing the same thing, just in case Titanium flips out when you use show() and hide().
//Method 1, using part of Josiah Hester's code snippet
var visible = true;
button.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
   if(visible)  {
       redView.setVisible(false); //This is the exact same thing as hide() method
   } else {
       redView.setVisible(true); //This is the exact same thing as show() method
   }
   visible = !visible;
});

You can set opacity to 0 and even if the view's visible property is set to true, it will still be invisible, due to a completely nonexistent level of opacity.  This is useful if you want something to be visible, but not clickable (by placing a view behind a view with an opacity of zero.
//Method 2, same code section
var opacity = 0;
button.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
   if(opacity)  {
       redView.setOpacity(0); //This is the NOT the same thing as hide() method
   } else {
       redView.setOpacity(1); //This is the NOT thesame thing as show() method
   }
   opacity = Math.abs(opacity - 1);
});

The Binding of Isaac creator Edmund McMillen teases new game
By Shaun Prescott 2016-07-27T03:33:23.208Z
It looks like a platformer set in a giant cylinder.
Despite ongoing work on The Binding of Isaac and a forthcoming, turnbased RPG spin-off called The Legend of Bum-bo, Edmund McMillen has yet another project in the works. Teased on his official Tumblr earlier this week, the unnamed game is an action platformer featuring the same protagonist as one of McMillen's earlier games, Time Fcuk.
Speaking to Eurogamer, McMillen confirmed that the game isn't directly related to the Binding of Isaac universe, nor does it have a name. "We are just leaking out early teases for now," he said. "All I can say is I think most would describe it as a Mega Man / Isaac-like, but a platformer with really tight controls."
Closure programmer Tyler Glaiel has also confirmed on Twitter that he's collaborating with McMillen on the game.
Still, it could be a while before we see it: Super Meat Boy Forever is still in development or, at least, that was its status back in August last year. Oh, and there might be a proper, non-autorunning sequel to the meaty platformer too.

After neck surgery forced legendary Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning to miss all of the 2011 NFL season, the Colts announced this week they are releasing him, partly to avoid paying him a $28M bonus, and partly because they hold the #1 pick in the upcoming draft and are likely to take Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck. Manning was with the Colts for 14 years, and as with any long-term relationship that comes to an end, there are some additional factors driving the sudden break-up...
Other Reasons Peyton Manning and the Colts Are Parting Ways
—It's not that he took the season off due to surgery... it's that he didn't even call! (Jameson)
—Colts fear Manning is entering the "texting young women pictures of his junk" phase of his career. (Mike)
—He insisted that every rookie get "Horseshoed" prior to their first preseason game. Most rookies never spoke of it again. (Matt)
—"Peyton" is, when it comes right down to it, a girl's name. (Joe)
—Turns out that the person responsible for urine-marking the initials P.M. all over Lucas Oil Stadium was not punter Pat McAfee, as Manning had originally suggested. (Brandon)
—Manning requested insurance coverage for oral contraceptives to treat his ovarian cysts, and team owner Jim Irsay called him a slut. (Tenessa)
—Football was just taking too much time away from Manning's commitment to the funny-commercial industry. (Jameson)
—In a moment of levity, he once referred to Indiana native Sydney Pollack as "Sydney Polyp". Big mistake. (Matt)
—It's just not natural for a man to be in a relationship with baby horses. Huh? What's that? Oh, I'm being told this has something to do with football. (Tenessa)
—How could the Colts possibly mess with the perfect synergy of a quarterback named "Luck" wearing a horseshoe on his helmet? (Joe)
—Team management has always been secretly embarrassed by Manning's four ESPY awards. (Brandon)
—Every time a teammate was expecting a child, he'd jokingly suggest they name it Peyton, but you could tell he really meant it. (Matt)
—He can no longer manage his crippling fear of blue horseshoes. (Tenessa)
—While Manning was resting up from surgery, Colts owner Jim Irsay invented a funny voice that he pretended was coming from Manning's navel. (Jameson)
—All he ever uses the Siri function on his iPhone for is looking up pictures of himself. (Matt)
—Manning wouldn't stop squeezing the team toothpaste from the middle of the tube. (Mike)
—I don't know about you, but I think the Colts deserve a lot of credit for putting up with that haircut as long as they did. (Matt)
—Manning's refusal to back down from his belief that, for the 2012 season, the team should wear capes. (Brandon)
—He never once cupped center Jeff Saturday's balls before the snap. (Matt)
—The stadium refuses to play "Bitch" by Meredith Brooks whenever Manning takes the field. (Tenessa)
—Sure, he's from there, and yes, it's the right way to pronounce it, but it's still sounds stupid when he calls it "N'awlins". (Matt)
—There were just too many other quarterbacks who were willing to be too old and injured to play for the Colts for less than $28 million. (Joe)

Market Selloff: 'Contagion Spreading; They've Got to Stop This'
Patti Domm	| @pattidomm
Published 5:28 PM ET Wed, 9 Nov 2011 CNBC.com
Fears that Italy, the world's third-largest debtor nation, cannot afford its obligations shook world markets, sending investors into the relative safety of the U.S. dollar and Treasurys.
Panoramic Images | Getty Images
Piazza Venezia, Rome, Italy
The measure for pain in this latest market drama has been the yield on Italian bonds, which traded above 7 percent for the first time Wednesday, a level viewed as unsustainable by the markets and the level at which Greece, Ireland and Portugal sought help. The warning signs were also flashing when the yield curve inverted, and 2-year yields rose above the 10-year, which was at 7.25 percent.
Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said Tuesday that he would resign after the 2012 budget is approved, which sent risk markets rallying. However, the lack of clarity around Berlusconi's exit concerned markets and Italian bonds continued to feel pressure.
"This is getting to be a game changer, will we have a euro one day? The market is forcing that issue much faster than any time in the past. It was one thing when it was about Greece. If you let Italy go off the cliff, you're questioning why do you have a euro in the first place," said Nomura Americas Treasury strategist George Goncalves.
"You cannot allow the Italian bond market, the third largest market, the biggest in Europe, to trade like a high-yield market," he said of the $2.2 trillion Italian debt market.
Stocks fell sharplyin Europe and the U.S., with banks in the lead. German and French equity markets were both down 2.2 percent.
In the U.S., the Dow had its worst day since Sept. 22, losing 3.2 percent to 11,780. The S&P 500 fell 3.7 percent to 1229, just below a key support level, and the S&P financial sector was the worst-performing major sector, down more than 5 percent.
The U.S. bond market was the beneficiary of the fear trade, with 10-year U.S. Treasury yields sliding to 1.95 percent, in an inverse move to bond prices. The dollar index leapt 1.26 points to 77.85, a 1.7 percent increase, as the euro fell towards 1.35.
Meanwhile, Greece, the market's chief source of worry before Italy took center stage, has been moving to restructure its government. But a meeting of political leaders with the country's president was pushed back to Thursday after a deal on a new unity government collapsed. Earlier Wednesday, Greece party leaders were leaning towards house speaker Filippos Petsalnikos to head the country's new coalition government.
Art Cashin, UBS Financial director of floor trading, said the market got even more jittery when the Greek efforts unraveled. "It was more that Greece can't seem to get its act together, and people realizing this thing Italy is going to vote on isn't even written yet," he said.
Rumors swirled through the morning that the European Central Bankwas holding an emergency meeting. The ECB declined comment, but there was also talk it was in the market buying bonds.
"I think the view has been the 'big bazooka' has been the ECB's balance sheet which can buy an unlimited amount of Italian paper. It will not happen without strings attached which means the ECB will only do that if it is effectively in control of the Italian government," said Amitabh Arora, head of asset allocation research at Citigroup.
"I would make a further prediction if Italian yields stay here, we'll see a further deterioration in risk assets," he said. Arora said ECB bond purchases of $10 to $15 billion a week could stem the rise, but it is not a likely outcome.
ECB official Juergen Stark added to the tension Wednesday afternoon, when he warned European governments not to ask for support from the ECB, making it the lender of last resort.
"It's not just Italy. The contagion is spreading. They've got to stop this," said Marc Chandler, Brown Brothers Harriman chief currency strategist. "The French bond spread to the German bund is at a new high. Three month Libor is at its highest level in more than a year... All of this is showing rising tensions."
"As soon as Italy announces a new government, Greece announces a new government it will help ease the political tension," said Chandler, adding the markets may then shift focus to the next country in line, Spain.
Chandler said the euro could see more selling and easily get to 1.34.
"Maybe the Treasury market rallies a little more but bonds for the most part have priced in this negativity, but what happens to oil and stocks?" said Goncalves.
"The Fed will be the grown up in the room. If this thing gets worse, then the Fed will step up and do intra meeting easing," he said.
"The authorities should understand the gravity of the situation. If they don't, then they are admitting defeat and the euro will be called into question." -Treasury Strategist, Nomura Americas, George Goncalves
Berlusconi won a budget vote Tuesday but lost his majority, signaling a lack of confidence in his leadership.
Last week, Berlusconi agreed to have the IMF monitor the country's economic reform efforts, as investors became increasingly wary of his government's efforts to rein in costs.
"The authorities should understand the gravity of the situation. If they don't, then they are admitting defeat and the euro will be called into question," said Goncalves.
The rising Italian yields triggered a move by two key clearing houses to raise margin requirements. This would raise the cost for banks that use Italian bonds as collateral to borrow in the secured lending market.

Shawn Gatewood
In the fall of 2017, Shawn Gatewood faced transphobic violence and hate speech simply for playing rugby as a transgender athlete on the Raleigh Venom D1 Women's Rugby team. Earlier in the season, a rival team complained to USA Rugby, questioning his eligibility as a player because of his appearance, but when the complaint didn't result in Shawn being barred from competition, the team asked other rival teams to sign a petition to have Shawn removed from rugby. Throughout this ordeal, Shawn has remained in compliance with all USA Rugby rules and regulations. He's continuing to speak out about the need for equality and acceptance in rugby and the greater athletics community.
"After publicly coming out, one thing became blatantly clear: while gender is a wide spectrum of identities and expressions, sport remains very binary and sex-segregated, in its policies and its cultures," Shawn wrote. "This issue is much bigger than me and my story – it's one of global significance. We must commit to providing the resources needed to help our trans youth who are being degraded and discriminated against daily."

UCI President Pat McQuaid has dismissed rumours reported by the Sydney Morning Herald that Lance Armstrong and UCI vice-president Hein Verbruggen are involved in a possible buyout of the Tour organisers ASO.
The Australian newspaper article is provocatively entitled "Once he dominated, now Lance could own the Tour" and goes on to claim: ?some say it may be an Armstrong-UCI deal.?
Whilst at pains to say the story is a rumour, the article points to circumstantial evidence that might give it weight.
It points out there have been contacts and a marketing agreement between ASO and American company Anshutz Entertainment Group [AEG], which runs the Tour of California.
It also claims that Armstrong is supposed to racing California next year, that AEG have links to cancer charities and that Verbruggen has stood down from his work in the International Olympic Committee.
Contacted by Cycling Weekly, McQuaid has dismissed the whole idea of an Armstrong-UCI-Verbruggen takeover of the Tour as something that: ?never was and never will be a possibility.
?In fact, it?s so far removed from the truth that if it were closer to the date I would consider it an April Fool?s Day joke. It?s just not true?.
The UCI and ASO are currently negotiating a way out of the conflict between cycling?s governing body and the Tour organisers that has dogged the sport for several years. McQuaid is due to meet Victor Cordero, the director of the Tour of Spain – partly bought by ASO – this weekend in Madrid.

Former soldiers extol IDF's virtues in Berkeley talk
By Joseph Amster | October 22, 2010
Two Israeli soldiers who have been on the front lines in the Middle East conflict came to the Bay Area last week to give a firsthand account of their experiences and champion the integrity of Israel Defense Forces operations.
The Israel advocacy group StandWithUs brought Orit and Jonathan (their last names were withheld for security reasons) to U.C. Berkeley on Oct. 12 as part of a nationwide ISSO (Israeli Soldiers Speaking Out) tour of six soldiers. Orit and Jonathan offered testimony to a group of 50 students and community members in a session that covered their experiences as soldiers, as well as their perspectives on the wider conflict.
Orit served as a medic in the Israeli army, once tending to a terrorist's wounds.
Orit, 25, was a combat medic in the West Bank from 2003 to 2005 and still serves in the IDF reserves. She says her service changed her perception of the Israeli military.
"Before I joined the army, I heard from the world media a lot of bad things about the IDF," she said. "I was so happy to find out that the army from the inside is very moral. It changed my view, because during my service, I gave medical aid to a lot of Palestinians in the West Bank. I didn't know that the army was doing that on a regular basis, but we are."
Jonathan, 25, was born in New York and raised in the United States. After studying in Israel for a year he decided to join the IDF, serving in the infantry and later becoming a platoon officer and commander from 2004 to 2009.
"My experience in the army gave me the perspective where I was able to see things from the eyes of an Israeli soldier," he said. "That gave me a deeper and better understanding of the challenges that the Israeli army faces and the efforts they make to deal with those challenges and combat them."
Though media reports and testimony of soldiers in the organization Breaking the Silence might give the impression that many IDF soldiers mistreat Palestinians, Orit and Jonathan both said they think these are isolated incidents.
"Our story is the everyday story of the IDF — their story is the exception," said Orit. "Every system has its bad apples, and the IDF judges them and punishes them. … The majority of the orders in the army are moral."
Focusing on the bad conduct of some soldiers may have other motives, Jonathan said. "I think those soldiers took their experiences to a political end," he suggested. "Israel when faced with this situation has difficult tasks; they're necessary. Not all Israeli soldiers agree or understand that."

To illustrate his point, Jonathan shared a story from his service in southern Lebanon, when he was assigned to find Hezbollah missile installations. After he spotted one in a village and reported its location, his superiors called off the helicopter attack because of the proximity of a mosque — the collateral damage would have been too great. Although Jonathan initially felt frustrated about the thwarted attack, he now sees it as an example of the IDF's ethics.
Orit's perspective shifted when she attended to the wounds of a known West Bank terrorist; he had orchestrated a suicide bombing carried out by his sister in a Haifa restaurant that killed 21 people. Orit said she simply felt she was doing her duty as an IDF soldier and didn't give a second thought to whether he should be treated.
During their nationwide tour as graduates of the StandWithUs Israel Fellowship Program, Orit and Jonathan said they've had a mostly positive experience, although they have encountered protests. "Americans are really willing to hear," said Orit. "We educate people — we are not here to convince, we are just here to show them that the moral dilemmas are much more complicated than they might look like. The conflict is much more complicated, and it's not as simple as some try to put it."
Keeping Israel safe and secure is a priority for both soldiers. "I believe in the Jewish state and I believe that I have a responsibility to help defend and protect it," Jonathan said. "It's something I'm proud of. Israel is an island in a sea of rough seas."

Q: How to create search and replace dialog box in codemirror? I have been using codemirror textarea in my project. In this, search and replace demo I can get the feature of search and replace. But I need like this dialogue box. I tried a lot but am unable to get as I expect.
codemirror.net/addon/search/search.js This is the js code I have customised so far.
var queryDialog = 'Search: <input type="text" style="width: 10em" class="CodeMirror-search-field"/> (Use /re/ syntax for regexp search)<button onclick="findtest()">Find<button>';
function findtest(){
CodeMirror.commands.find = function(cm) {clearSearch(cm); doSearch(cm);}; }

This is what I have tried.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

A: Maybe a little late to answer this question, but I've found this to work:
document.querySelector("#openSearch").onclick = function(){ editor.execCommand("find"); };

A: Obviously this question is fairly old now, but in case anyone else stumbles across it looking for an answer, I have written a replacement search addon for CodeMirror that looks and acts more like a traditional find/replace dialog.  The built in search is made that way for compatibility reasons - without the dialog addon it will fall back to the browser's alert and confirm implementations.  My addon does not do that, and uses a slightly modified dialog addon to the original.
NPM Installation
The new addon is called codemirror-revisedsearch, and you can install it using npm like so:
npm install --save codemirror-revisedsearch

Manual Installation
If you don't want to use npm, you can download the source from https://github.com/maloric/codemirror-revisedsearch.  You will also need to download the codemirror-advanceddialog addon from https://github.com/maloric/codemirror-advanceddialog.

A: Store editor instance in window something like
window.editor = CodeMirror(document.getElementById('myEditorElement'), options);

Then you can use it anywhere even in onclick event.
↑
↓
Replace

I have built a JSON viewer tool used Codemirror.
Use Ctrl + F or Cmd + F to show the search box

Q: is there a java pattern for a process to constantly run to poll or listen for messages off a queue and process them? planning on moving a lot of our single threaded synchronous processing batch jobs to a more distributed architecture with workers. the thought is having a master process read records off the database, and send them off to a queue. then have a multiple workers read off the queue to process the records in parallel.
is there any well known java pattern for a simple CLI/batch job that constantly runs to poll/listen for messages on queues? would like to use that for all the workers. or is there a better way to do this? should the listener/worker be deployed in an app container or can it be just a standalone program?
thanks
edit: also to note, im not looking to use JavaEE/JMS, but more hosted solutions like SQS, a hosted RabbitMQ, or IronMQ

A: If you're using a JavaEE application server (and if not, you should), you don't have to program that logic by hand since the application server does it for you.
You then implement and deploy a message driven bean that listens to a queue and processes the message received. The application server will manage a connection pool to listen to queue messages and create a thread with an instance of your message driven bean which will receive the message and be able to process it.
The messages will be processed concurrently since the application server will have a connection pool and a thread pool available to listen to the queue.
All JavaEE-featured application servers like IBM Websphere or JBoss have configurations available in their admin consoles to create Message Queue listeners depending or the message queue implementation and then bind this message queue listeners to your Message Driven Bean.

A: I don't a lot about this, and I maybe don't really answer your question, but I tried something a few month ago that might interest you to deals with message queue.
You can have a look at this: http://www.rabbitmq.com/getstarted.html
I seems Work Queue could fix your requirements.


Thanlyin, more commonly pronounced Tanyin and formerly Syriam, is a city in Yangon Division in Myanmar (Burma). It is located on the Bago River, and is a major port.
In the late 1500s, Thanlyin was the base of the Portuguese adventurer, Philip de Brito. Officially a mercenary from Arakan, he established himself as a local warlord from his base at Thanlyin, and hired his forces on occasion to the Mon in their battles against the Burmese. However, in 1599 he unleashed his army against Bago, which he sacked. Captured by the Burmese in 1613, he was executed by impalement – a punishment reserved for defilers of Buddhist temples. Thanlyin continued to be a major port until it was destroyed by King Alaungpaya in 1756 during the Mon revolt.
The Portuguese and Eurasian survivors of de Brito's band were taken to the villages of Monhla and Chantha in the Mu River valley near Shwebo. Called bayin ji (great kings), their fair-haired, European featured descendants still live and follow the Catholic faith in these villages, but have become assimilated to the surrounding Bamar.
Thanlyin is the site of a proposed deep sea port served by railway branch line with one of the main terminals called International Terminal Thilawa. The other major point is the 1882.6 metre long road and rail bridge called Yangon-Thanlyin Bridge built by the People's Republic of China and opened in 1993.
Thanlyin is home to the Kyauktan Ye Le Pagoda, which lies approximately 20 km (13 miles) south of the city on a small island in Hmaw Won Creek, a tributary of Yangon River. This unusual temple was built under King Bawgasena in the third century B.C.E. The temple hosts an impressive collection of paintings, sculptures and other fine demonstrations of Burmese Buddhist artwork and craftsmanship.

Trailer Park: Male comedic duos hit the big screen
Every now and then a couple of trailers come out at the same time that seem to share a common theme. This week, two such videos grabbed my attention. Both are for movies that hope to entertain fans with the bumbling antics of a mismatched male comedic duo.
First, there's Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg in "The Other Guys." The A-list pair stars as unlikely New York detectives determined to mimic the heroism and machismo of another, much more revered, NYPD duo played by Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. A highlight for me came during one moment in the trailer when Wahlberg simply can't believe that Will Ferrell's character is married to Eva Mendes.
The other film is called "Dinner for Schmucks." It stars Steve Carell and Paul Rudd and is directed by "Meet the Parents" and "Austin Powers" director, Jay Roach.
In the film, Rudd's character is confronted with a moral dilemma. In an effort to get a promotion at work he must find a guest for his boss's monthly mean-spirited get-together, a so-called "dinner for idiots." When Carell enters the picture, it would seem Rudd has found the perfect "schmuck" for the occasion.
Both films, "The Other Guys" and "Dinner for Schmucks," seem to play to their stars' strong sense of humor and comedic timing. Audiences can find out which film they prefer this summer - "Schmucks" hits theaters July 23 and "Guys" debuts two weeks later on August 6.

Council votes to keep Foxton Community Board
Horowhenua District Mayor Michael Feyen.
By: Staff reporters
Horowhenua District Council has voted to retain the Foxton Community Board.
In a vote at Wednesday's Extraordinary council meeting, seven councillors voted against a proposal to shut the board down, two voted for its disestablishment and two were absent.
It is the third time the council has attempted to remove the board, with reviews in 2007 and 2012 turned back by the Local Government Commission, which has the power to make the ultimate decision over its existence.
The idea of canning the board was put forward under the council's six-yearly Representation Review, with community consultation invited on the proposal.
It was suggested Foxton was over-represented by the existence of the board, it would save money to disestablish it, and that there were other ways the Foxton community could communicate with the council.
"Other communities have interest groups talking to council and those work well at no cost to the council," Mark Lester, Horowhenua District Council's Group Manager Corporate Services, said in May, when the proposal was being discussed.
The council also cited direct costs of $55,000 per year for the board, along with indirect costs amounting to $150,000 to $160,000 per year, which could be done away with if it was dismantled.
However, submissions from the public were overwhelmingly in favour of keeping the community board, and impassioned pleas from the board itself outlining its achievements were heard by the council.
Mayor Michael Feyen reiterated these achievements at Wednesday's meeting before the vote, listing Foxton's swimming pool, the footpath between the town and beach, Te Waiora Health Centre, the pump track and Te Awahou Nieuwe Stroom cultural centre as projects the board had directly driven or contributed to.
During the consultation period, the board also advocated with Horizons Regional Council regarding the proposed rates burden that may result if a drainage scheme for Foxton east goes ahead.
The board also has a role in allocating funds from the Foxton Beach Freeholding account.
Feyen said the board had saved rates dollars for many who don't even live in the town.
"I don't believe we should take away democratic right over the Foxton Beach Freeholding Fund," he said.
"The people spoke."
Councillor Bernie Wanden said while he was voting to keep the board, he did not accept some of the criticisms that had been levelled at the council after its proposal to shut it down.
He said the board was not needed "to keep this table honest," and that council had not put forward the proposal because it wanted to get its hands on the Freeholding Fund.
He said if these negative things were the case, then they would support him voting for the disbanding of the board, which he was not doing.
Councillor Neville Gimblett said ahead of the vote that if the board was retained he would like to see a community forum at the beginning of each of its meetings where people could speak without a restriction to agenda items or having to call the district council first for permission.
"I'd like it to be more proactive [in managing] local issues instead of passing them back to council officers to action," he said.
Feyen said the Foxton Community Board would have both Kere Kere ward councillors appointed to it with full voting rights, and there would be no boundary changes at this stage.
Councillors who voted to retain the board were Ross Brannigan, Christine Mitchell, Victoria Kaye-Simmons, Bernie Wanden, Neville Gimblett, Ross Campbell and mayor Michael Feyen.
Barry Judd and deputy mayor Wayne Bishop voted for it not to be retained.
Piri-Hira Tukupua and Jo Mason were absent from the meeting.

I know I promised to get that photo up of the ghost I caught in a mirror at Houmas House Plantation in Darrow, LA, but I haven't been able to accomplish that just yet. My husband is super sick from a sinus infection and I am busy trying to fight one off.
I'm new to blogging and I have to figure out how to re-save my photos taken directly from my digital camera into less pixels (400 X 350, max) for the blog. If I post it straight from my camera it will cause my blog to load slowly for people with slower ISP's and connection to the Internet.
My goal is to post the picture here ASAP so we can have a forum in which to discuss it. There are new developments. I have been in email contact with Kevin Kelly, the current owner. He has now verified for me that the "stain", that appears like a cloud, on the upper portion of the mirror is NO stain. According to him the mirror is unblemished.
So, looks like I not only caught one ghost, but TWO in the SAME picture!!!

FAMU Band "Ringleader" Sentenced To Over Six Years For Hazing Death
Kevin Draper
Filed to:florida a&m band
Dante Martin, described by prosecutors as the "ringleader" of the Florida A&M band hazing ritual that led to the death of band member Robert Champion in 2011, was sentenced Friday to six-and-a-half years in prison in Orange County (Fla.). He was found guilty of manslaughter and other lesser charges in October. In taking the stand to plead for a lesser sentence, Martin described the benign brutality of hazing. Via the Orlando Sentinel:
"Sometimes we just go with what is tradition," Martin said of the incident that killed Champion. "We don't second guess it, we don't doubt it."
In an exhaustively reported piece from 2012, the Tampa Bay Times horrifyingly described the school bus hazing hell band members were forced to endure, and how it killed Champion:
Robert Champion stripped off his white T-shirt, adrenaline surging, and ran into the dark tangle of fists and feet and drumsticks. Hollis couldn't see what was happening to Champion from his seat in the back. But he could hear the punches and kicks making contact, he said. There were so many people.
When Champion made it halfway, Hollis could see his friend fall, and he could see the mob grab him by the legs and drag him back to where he had started. Minutes ticked by as Champion fought, scrambling slowly down the 45 feet of aisle. At one point, the mob pushed him into a seat and he couldn't break out. Someone hung from the overhead luggage rack and appeared to be stomping him.
Hollis said two or three other drum majors were trying to help, but they weren't doing much good against the mob. Shawn Turner, Hollis said, jerked Champion free and, finally, after more than five minutes of fighting shadows, Robert Champion's fingertips touched the back wall.
Nine other former band members have already been given sentences for their role in Champion's death—mostly community service and probation, though one was sentenced to 51 weeks in jail—and three more will face trial later in 2015.

Congressman Gaetz To Trump: Pardon General Michael Flynn
Congressman Matt Gaetz told Hill TV host Buck Sexton Friday that President Donald Trump should pardon General Michael Flynn, the beloved patriotic national security adviser who got taken out by a Crossfire Hurricane plot.
Gaetz made the suggestion by saying that he would pardon Flynn IF he was President Trump because, sadly, even though his supporters love President Trump, the Commander in Chief oftentimes does not do the obvious things that need to get done for him to win, mostly because he is surrounded by people in the White House who don't care about him.
"If I was President Trump, I would just pardon Michael Flynn," Gaetz stated. "I think that when you look at the testimony that Jim Comey gave where he said there was no indicia of lying from Flynn based on the reports that he received from agents, when you look at the fact that the conversations that Flynn was having, they're kind of case in course part of regular transition meetings that occur all the time in this town, and whenever governments are changing around the world."
"I'm not troubled by Flynn's conduct. I'm far more troubled by the fact that he seems to be in legal jeopardy so that there can be leverage built against the president," said the Florida congressman.
Gaetz is one of the few non-NPC members of Congress, meaning that he actually says and does real things rather than just robotically parroting whatever the worthless Establishment line is on any given issue.
Here is the story of what happened to Flynn:
As President Donald Trump calls for an end to the Robert Mueller investigation based on former Mueller team member Peter Strzok's blatant unlawful attempts to personally target Trump, the case against General Michael Flynn is also becoming more precarious due to Strzok's involvement.
In fact, Strzok personally set up General Flynn, the original Trump White House national security adviser.
On January 24, 2017, Peter Strzok interviewed General Michael Flynn inside the White House alongside another agent. Flynn's lawyer was not present. Flynn apparently did not tell the White House about his meeting. Guess who did? Sally Yates, the anti-Trump deputy attorney general whose underling told the FBI to shut down the Clinton Foundation case. Yates informed the White House on January 26 that Flynn met with the FBI.
That was the beginning of the end for the original Trump White House.
Strzok was close personal friends with the foreign intelligence judge Rudolph Contreras who accepted General Flynn's guilty plea. Contreras recused himself after he already accepted Flynn's guilty plea.
Strzok and Page detailed their plan to meet with Contreras in a July 25, 2016 series of texts:
PAGE: "Rudy is on the [Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court]! Did you know that? Just appointed two months ago."
STRZOK: "I did. I need to get together with him."
PAGE: "said he'd gotten on a month or two ago at a graduation party we were both at."
Mueller reportedly coerced Flynn into pleading guilty by threatening the general's son Mike Flynn Jr., whom Hillary Clinton clearly referred to in a tweet expressing anger at Flynn Jr. for tweeting about the Comet Pizza-Gate story.
Evidence now clearly shows that General Michael Flynn was targeted for prosecution under a charge of lying to federal investigators because Robert Mueller was trying to flip him into participating in the "Russia" probe against President Donald Trump.
Flynn, who was felled by his alleged lie to Vice President Pence, was the first scalp claimed by the media in the Trump administration, which opened up the floodgates for a while on administration firings before Trump recently consolidated more control of his administration.
Peter D'Abrosca reported: The latest bit of explosive information from special counsel Robert S. Mueller's investigation shows that the FBI deliberately chose to prosecute General Michael Flynn, though they had no reason to believe he was lying to them.
On Friday, the House Intelligence Committee released an unredacted version of their final report on Russia, and the unredacted documents tell a completely different story than their redacted counterparts.
"Deputy Director McCabe stated that, 'we really had not substantiated anything particularly significant against General Flynn,'" says the newly unredacted version of the document.
But why would this have been redacted in the first place? The public was under the impression that Flynn lied to the FBI. McCabe says plainly that that there was no case against Flynn.
"The two people who interviewed [Flynn] didn't think he was lying, [which] was not [a] great beginning of a false statement case," McCabe told the House Intel Committee.
But it gets worse. Disgraced former FBI director James Comey was in on the scheme.
"Director Comey testified to the Committee that 'the agents…discerned no physical indications of deception,'" the original redacted report says. "They didn't see any change in posture, in tone, in inflection, in eye contact. They saw nothing that indicated to them that he knew he was lying to them."
"General Flynn pleaded guilty to making a false statement to the Federal Bureau of Investigation regarding his December 2016 conversations with Ambassador Kislyak, even though the Federal Bureau of Investigation agents did not detect any deception during Flynn's interview," it continues.
But the Mueller tactics did box the Flynn family into a legal corner and a financial hole, as it was supposed to. We also reported that General Flynn was forced to put his house up for sale in order to meet the constant requirements of his legal bills.

The Matrix: Are Agents "Mortal" or "Immortal"?
I haven't watched the 3rd Matrix movie yet, but there is no need to refrain from revealing potential "spoiler alerts" in any answers if they can answer the question.
In the first two movies, all fight scenes depict the Agents as unbeatable. They defy the laws of physics, never tire, move at superhuman speeds, etc. It seems impossible to beat them (except where they fight Neo, the One). However, if someone shoots the body (like when Trinity shoots the helicopter pilot) the Agent leaves the body, which reverts to its original form.
Are the Agents indestructible or not? Do they make the body they possess become superhuman and immune to all wounds aside from fatal ones?

Which do you want to know, are they indestructible, or immortal. Those aren't the same thing. – Monty129 Apr 1 '14 at 10:20

@MikeyMouse - Ever looked at your registry after an uninstall? There are always traces. Immortal. :p – JohnP Aug 22 '14 at 14:50
@JohnP That's exactly what an agent would say... – Mikey Mouse Aug 22 '14 at 14:54
You've actually asked three different questions. I'll try to cover them all;
Are Agents invulnerable?
No, Agents are most definitely not invulnerable. In the films we see that Agents can be shot and killed. A good example of this is where Agent Jones is dispatched with a shot to the head in the excellent "Dodge this..." scene.
We see that they can also suffer non-mortal wounds in the Matrix comic "Day In, Day Out" (where an unnamed Agent loses his arm to falling glass) and "Reloaded" (where Morpheus cuts an Agent's face with his sword).
Are Agents Superhuman?
Yes, when a human is taken over by an Agent we see that their strength, agility and speed are instantly amped up to superhuman levels. This seems to include the amount of physical impact trauma they can receive. A good example would be in the Subway Fight where Smith punches through solid concrete without damaging his knuckles.
Are Agents immortal?
The short answer to this one is yes. Whilst there's no canon evidence that the Agents are or aren't susceptible to mundane ways of dying (such as illness and old age) I think we can be reasonably certain that they would be.
In terms of violent death, a few seconds after Agent Jones is dispatched on the roof (courtesy of a bullet to the head) he turns up again, having possessed a new human body. If they can discarnate and reincarnate at will, for all intents and purposes they are immortal.
Wad Cheber
ValorumValorum
@bitmask - Yes, I did think about that. There's no evidence that "the one" can permanently terminate an agent. All we learn is that agents are supposed to do something after being killed. Whatever that thing is, Smith refused to do it. On the other hand, Agent Jones returns within minutes of being killed. – Valorum Apr 1 '14 at 11:45
Neo used reflection to call a private destrcutor method on the Singularity.Matrix.Agent::Smith instance. Not that complicated, really... – Dacio Apr 2 '14 at 17:32
Smith says: "You destroyed me Mr. Anderson. Afterward, I knew the rules, I understood what I was supposed to do, but I didn't." Destroyed is pretty unambiguous synonym for death, in my opinion. But with all the other shifting explanations and metaphors in Matrix, yeah, it's of course open to interpretation. – Dacio Apr 2 '14 at 17:57
@Richard The Oracle gives an explanation earlier in the scene where Neo and her are sitting on the bench: [...] usually a program chooses exile when it faces deletion [...] And when it does, a program can either choose to hide here, or return to the source. So that says (to me at least) that Smith was supposed to return to the source, but instead chose Exile within the Matrix. – Josh Apr 14 '14 at 20:37
@Josh - Other agents die and then return almost instantly. The implication is that Smith was already ideologically damaged and that on his death he was supposed to agree to be destroyed rather than being reborn. This, however is only one interpretation. – Valorum Apr 14 '14 at 20:47
Every time you've heard someone say they saw a ghost, or an angel. Every story you've ever heard about vampires, werewolves, or aliens, is the system assimilating some program that's doing something they're not supposed to be doing.
Although the Oracle does not explicitly mention Agents in this quote she does suggest that the Matrix as a whole has methods of dealing with rogue programs. The biggest threat to an Agents continued existence might not be the rebels of Zion, or even the powers of the One, but deletion for dereliction of duty.
Even loyalist programs would potentially be vulnerable as we know from Agent Smith's dialogue when he tortures Morpheus and from the Architect's explanations that periodically new versions of the Matrix have been designed to address inherent weaknesses in the system. While some older programs end up in the Merovingian's entourage we are not told what happens to other programs that suddenly find themselves surplus to requirements during a reboot.

They are immortal to a point. An Agent cannot be deleted as a result of combat (except perhaps in rare situations like Agent Smith) because an Agent can simply exit the body it is using when "killed".
But that doesn't mean an Agent can never be deleted. At the beginning of The Matrix Reloaded Neo comments that the Agents he encounters are "upgrades", which implies that Agent programs may be replaced eventually. Since we do not see Agent Brown or Agent Jones from The Matrix in any of the sequels, it is likely that they were replaced with the upgraded Agents Johnson, Thompson, and Jackson. As explained by the Oracle to Neo in the park (before the Burly Brawl), obsolete Agents like Brown and Jones were probably required to return to the Source for deletion or go into exile.

Here's another perspective on the headline question.
Agents need a host body to exist. Therefore if you eliminate every potential host body they cannot exist. Kill every blue pill and there will be no more agents.
Therefore they cannot be considered immortal.
You can also make a similar argument based on the matrix itself. Destroy the matrix once and for all and there can be no more agents.

If they are programs, then surely they just backup from a saved restore point. And maybe they are constantly saving. So you'd have to delete the actual saved back up somehow.

Welcome to SFF.SE. Your theory is interesting, but we prefer answers that are supported by the source material; can you remember anything from the movies suggesting that programs actually are restored from backup? – Jason Baker Jul 23 '15 at 2:44

With a personal background in brand management and brand consulting roles, he enjoys discussing marketing issues and challenges, combining his skills to place talented candidates at all levels from assistant/exec to director level.
As a candidate myself on various occasions, I had always been curious about what my consultant was telling me and what they were not! Apart from a few occasions, I had also enjoyed the process of interviewing for different roles; meeting senior marketers and gaining an insight into other companies.
After 5 years in brand management, I had already made the move to the agency-side into a boutique brand consultancy, where I worked with many different FMCG and other clients, so at a point when I was looking for a new career challenge, a move into recruitment became one of my options – a move that enabled me to build a successful, interesting and consistently challenging career.
Having met thousands of candidates and clients over many years, I continue to enjoy meeting candidates of all backgrounds, getting under their skin and debating their particular talents and career aspirations. I equally enjoy getting to grips with a client's brief, working out who might best fit the role and company.
When I established the Tarsh Partnership, I was keen to embrace all the recruitment skills I had learned over many years, but to add a level of pace, transparency and openness to the recruitment process and company management. I was also determined to harness what was then a relatively immature on-line industry, and use it to promote jobs, attract candidates and clients and build robust relationships with, using the latest technology to communicate and get the best CVs onto the table quickly and efficiently.

I have always worked with a very broad range of candidates and clients across the entire marketing industry, managing roles in brand management, consumer, shopper and market insight, category, customer and shopper marketing and in brand & innovation consultancy. I tend to work with candidates at the more middle to senior levels of their career, often advising them when they are considering tangential career moves into other sectors or more specialised marketing disciplines. I regularly work with candidates who are clients of the Tarsh Partnership; confidentiality and discretion being key in these instances.
Think really hard about what you are trying to achieve in your next move and your longer-term career aspirations, whether that is status, specific marketing challenges or money. Be realistic and pragmatic about your successes, ability and competitive set, but never under-sell yourself or hide your light!

Q: Reading Multiple XML files I have Created a small XML tool, to find the numbers of element present in Multiple XML files.
This code gives the fine result for the elements which are must in XML files.
But when it comes to specific elements, which may be present or not in XML files, Software give me result as:
10/8/2012 11:27:51 AM
C:\Documents and Settings\AlaspuMK\Desktop\KS\success\4CPK-PMF0-004D-P565-00000-00.xml

C:\Documents and Settings\AlaspuMK\Desktop\KS\success\4CPK-PMG0-004D-P002-00000-00.xml
Instance: 0

Now here the problem is XML files may be 500-1000 when i search the tag which may be present or not the tool gives me result for each and every files. In this case specific tag present instance may be 0 or multiple.
Can any one suggest the changes in my Code to find the file name in which instance is greater than 0. and if instance > 0 print it in text box.
My current code:
public void SearchMultipleTags()
        {
            if (txtSearchTag.Text != "")
            {
                try
                {
                    //string str = null;
                    //XmlNodeList nodelist;
                    string folderPath = textBox2.Text;
                    DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(folderPath);
                    FileInfo[] rgFiles = di.GetFiles("*.xml");
                    foreach (FileInfo fi in rgFiles)
                    {
                        int i = 0;
                        XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
                        xmldoc.Load(fi.FullName);
                        //rtbox2.Text = fi.FullName.ToString();

                        foreach (XmlNode node in xmldoc.GetElementsByTagName(txtSearchTag.Text))
                        {

                            i = i + 1;

                            //
                        }
                        rtbox2.Text += DateTime.Now + "\n" + fi.FullName + " \nInstance: " + i.ToString() + "\n\n";
                        //rtbox2.Text += fi.FullName + "instances: " + str.ToString();
                    }

                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {

                    MessageBox.Show("Invalid Path or Empty File name field.");

                }
            }
            else
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Dont leave field blanks.");
            }

        }

A: Use
if(i > 0)
rtbox2.Text += DateTime.Now + "\n" + fi.FullName + " \nInstance: " + i.ToString() + "\n\n";

instead of simple
rtbox2.Text += DateTime.Now + "\n" + fi.FullName + " \nInstance: " + i.ToString() + "\n\n";

A: If I understand correctly, you want to display text only if the i is greater than 0?
if(i > 0 )
rtbox2.Text += DateTime.Now + "\n" + fi.FullName + " \nInstance: " + i.ToString() + "\n\n";

A: You could always just use this code inside the try block:
rtbox2.Text =
    String.Join(Environment.NewLine + Environment.NewLine,
        from fi in (new DirectoryInfo(textBox2.Text)).GetFiles("*.xml")
        let xd = XDocument.Load(fi.FullName)
        let i = xd.Descendants(txtSearchTag.Text).Count()
        where i > 0
        select String.Join(Environment.NewLine, new []
        {
            DateTime.Now.ToString(),
            fi.FullName,
            i.ToString(),
        }));

Does it all in one line (bar the formatting). :-)

Many people would say that music is a window into our soul; so many messages are communicated through the gift music it's no wonder the lyrics of songs linger in the minds and hearts of our communities for many years after it has been released.
In 1989 the British rock band Queen featured a song called "I Want It All" on their album, The Miracle. Written by guitarist and backing vocalist Brian May, he claims that its title reflects the theme of the song, that of having ambition and fighting for one's own goals. Because of these themes, the song became an anti-apartheid song in South Africa and has also been used as a gay rights protest theme and a rallying anthem for African-American youth.
The idea of both fighting for one's rights and wanting everything now has become more prominent in the lives of particularly younger people in the increasingly consumerist age of the last few decades. The desire for everything now is reiterated in the wider economy through such offerings as instant finance and instant returns in pyramid schemes. Saving for a future goal has been replaced by having it now and paying later. In the wider sphere of people, the now generation has shown itself to be real through the instant gratification of casual relationships.
There is no doubt that the instant society has also infiltrated the life and operations of the local church. Whether it be through the desire for the best physical plant of facilities and technology or through finding answers to deep theological conundrums with the aid of Google, faith is no longer expected to be something that grows to maturity but is expected to be mature shortly after seeding. 'I want it all and I want it now' is the expectation and catch cry in an instantaneous church.
The instant society is not, however, reflected in the Biblical narrative. Faith and a deep understanding of God and his ways are not something that can be short-circuited, rather biblical authors write of a process, over time, of learning and reflection that leads to maturity.
In his first letter to Christians in the city of Corinth, Paul writes "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me" (1 Corinthians 13:11). This verse reflects the journey of life, that a child can only talk like a child but an adult has to put childish ways behind them as they grow into maturity. The aging process cannot be reduced, neither can maturity.
The author of Hebrews writes, "Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity…" (Hebrews 6:1). Elementary teachings are deemed to be necessary but it's not intended that someone should stay with the basics, in effect the more one knows the more one should begin to know.
Peter writes in his second letter, "But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ …" (2 Peter 3:18). There is an implication that growth is necessary, and growth by its very nature, takes time.
All of these scriptures, and many others of a similar vein, strongly reiterate the requirement of growing from infancy to maturity over time, through experience and reflection.
If we seek instant answers to life's ongoing mysteries, we short-change the opportunity we have for growth that lies in our paths. If we seek instant answers to life's many challenges, we short-change the opportunity we have for the learnings that come through trial and error. If we try to find our own answers to our big questions, we miss the opportunity to grow through the wisdom and experiences of those who have gone before us and have learnt their own lessons.
Most people would say that they learn their greatest lessons from hindsight, from looking back at the process of learning, from thinking about what they learnt from mistakes made through naivety and poor judgement. But the lessons learned are worth the process, for history is our greatest teacher.
Let's not rush the learning process; let's allow ourselves the freedom to slow down and smell the roses who take their own time to grow. Let's allow God to dictate his terms to us, in his timing and in his terms.
Let's push back against the 'I want it now' motif with a resounding 'I want it later' because the journey is more important than the destination. There's probably a song about this, something like, 'He makes all things beautiful, in his time.' It sounds worth the wait.

He's learnt his greatest lessons through trying to rush through life, and has realised this normally has short-changed his learning. He can be contacted here.

Colonialism constructs native masculinity as a hierarchized other of its own masculinity. Two strands are clearly visible in dominant constructions -feminisation and naturalization. They both have to do with setting up an unattainable ideal that is, however implicitly, attributed to the typical 'white' man, who is, of course, the real man. The first has to do with saying 'well is that really strong enough, aggressive enough, courageous enough?' and the other with saying, 'well perhaps but that is so animal-like, isn't it?'.
At the time we won the World Cup, and taken in relation to ODI in particular, this claim of the lack of experience was just plain silly – the team had perhaps three times the ODI experience of England, when it was all added up. But that didn't matter, the condescending supporters of little Sri Lanka, like Geoff Boycott and Tony Greig would keep repeating how great we would be with experience. Right until we won.
This kind of construction, for example, was expressed in the way soft dismissals were described at the time. "A rush of blood," was a favourite; "a rash stroke" another, for native players from the sunny isle. This is to be contrasted with the idea of 'disappointment." "Oh /Athers/Stewie/.. would be so disappointed with that shot,' would the commentator pronounce, implying, at once that the player has a well developed interiority, that can take a manly measure of failure. The type who's had a rush of blood cannot, he must wait until his head cools; that kind of fellow just plays according to instinct.
After we won the World Cup, the Coach, who had been around for a bit, was discovered. If the natives aren't really well cultured and cultivated enough, then one needs a white man to coach them, to train them up. Its the coach, they would say, he's done so much. And yes, I do think Whatmore did a great deal, but that was superficial when compared to what the players did.
That kind of talk has lessened now. We've had several white coaches now, I guess, for a while, so even the South Africans think we must have learnt how to play, actually. Now, the problem really becomes deeper; what kind of men are these fellows, do they have the right mix of courage and prudence, that real white men have?
The Ten Sports commentary on the finals of the Indian Oil cup, where Sri Lanka played India in a day-nighter at the Premadasa, was a rich case in point. Ian Chappel was a much much better specimen, than almost anybody from Australia. In most of the lead up matches, his comments weren't in the colonial mould. I was truly impressed. Then, so unfortunately, he was joined by the appropriately named Heels, or the short, stumpy, former wicket keeper, Ian Healy. This fellow is a white boy of the old school, and soon, even Chappel was infected.
First to go was Attapattu, captaining the fielding side. "Letting things drift," was the refrain, "not aggressive enough." With not a whit of thought given to the possibility that this fellow might well have a plan (all on his ownsome). Oh no, the white boys were sure: he wasn't man enough to be "aggressive." Too effeminate, no doubt, unlike the hard thrust of any colonial authority. Then when the strategy worked, and Yuvaraj top edged Chandana to deep mid wicket, Chappie didn't give up; he implied the Indian boy had lost his nerve. When natives play, white boys can do it both ways.
Then again, usually, the Australians will be on about how poorly Sri Lanka is fielding. But hey, in this match, they were doing quite well. The opposite constructions kick in, and this is a new one. These guys are foolhardy. Mahroof dives to stop the ball at the boundary. "Oh how silly" exclaims Heels, "just for one run." Yes, you can train them to drive, get them out of the jungle, that is – then make them aggressive enough to go for it, and still they don't have the manly prudence to hold back. To be measured, thoughtful, and not dive at the right time. If he hadn't dived, Heels would have said, Moods (Sri Lanka Coach Tom Moody) would be so disappointed with Mahroof – he's got so much work to do.
At first, it seems silly to ask why so much philanthropy followed the tsunami. With so much death, destruction and dislocation there was great need and, obviously, generosity follows need, one might say. But I want to look a gift horse, not so much in the mouth, really, but in the eye, and ask, quietly, why are you here? What will you be doing? It isn't radical, after all, to take things for granted; asking 'why' and 'what' should help us see more clearly.

You are here: Home1 / History Hub2 / Talks & Audio3 / The Peninsular War
10th March 2014 /in History Hub, Talks & Audio/by Peter Caddick-Adams
Recording from Peter Caddick Adam's talk, 'The Peninsular War', for CVHF, Tuesday 25th June 2013.
Acclaimed historian Peter Caddick-Adams brought his vast knowledge and his experience of walking the ground to bear in this talk about the Peninsular War, a long and drawn-out campaign, in which the combined British and allied forces gradually ground down and defeated Napoleon's French armies. Notable for the reputations made and ruined, and for the numerous battles and sieges fought across Portugal and Spain, this was a brutal and bloody campaign. From Sir John Moore's retreat to Corunna, through the Lines of Torres Vedras and the siege of Badajoz and Ciudad Rodrigo to the battles of Salamanca and Vitoria (recreated at the Festival on Sunday 30th), he told the tale of this six-year campaign with all his usual enthusiasm, expertise and empathy for those who fought, from the lowly rifleman to Wellington himself.

When submitting orders from Shopify to Amazon FBA, be sure that your SKUs from Shopify match the SKUs FBA has for your items. If they don't match, you can map them to each other in Order Desk in one of two ways. You can match the codes to each other in your Amazon FBA settings or you can use a metadata field called code_replace in your inventory items.
To match product codes from Shopify to Amazon FBA, navigate to your FBA settings by clicking on Amazon FBA under Integrations in the left sidebar.
Scroll down to the Product Code Match box. You can match the SKUs here, where the first SKU is your Shopify SKU and the second is your FBA SKU.
Set one match per line.
If you have bundled products in Shopify, use Product Code Match to match the SKU of the bundle to the SKUs FBA has for each item in the bundle.
As orders come into Order Desk, the items in the orders will sync with your inventory items already stored here, and any Shopify SKU that matches an item with the code_replace field in it will be replaced by the SKU set in the metadata.
For more details, including how to set up code replace bundles, see the Code Replace guide.
