-- This module implements a framework for IRC client software.
-- Essentially it consists of a dumb bot, which connects to and stays on
-- an IRC server waiting for commands.
--
-- Using the 'onEvent' function (or the convenience functions
-- 'onConnect', 'onDisconnect', etc.) you can attach event handlers to
-- certain events.  These event handlers are run in the 'Bot' monad,
-- which encapsulates the current state of the bot.
--
-- Please note that even though unlikely you should expect that parts of
-- this interface will be changed in future revisions.

Govt. to Introduce Mobile App for GST Collection at Restaurants
Posted 3 months ago by Ambreen Shabbir
The government has decided to launch a mobile app for the real-time collection of the general sales tax (GST) charged by the restaurants and hotels across the country.
The decision will be finalized after taking all the stakeholders on board. The mobile app will send an instant receipt to the consumers to confirm that the tax has been collected. It will increase the government's revenue from the food and accommodation sector.
The decision has come about after the Finance Ministry sent a letter to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) regarding the matter. The FBR reviewed the recommendation of a mobile app for restaurants and hotels.
As for the letter, it noted that all the luxury restaurants and hotels across the country collect GST apart from their own bills. That includes restaurants that do not even provide computerized bills to the consumers.
The letter stated that whether the tax charged by the restaurants and hotels actually goes to the national treasury and within the prescribed duration remains unconfirmed.
FBR Now Allows Filers to Claim Advance Tax Paid On Educational Fee
The finance ministry further suggested the integration of the app with the tax mechanism to enable the GST payments made on a real-time basis.
This decision will benefit the government, as the taxes will be transferred to the national exchequer instantly. Furthermore, the consumers will also remain assured that their payment has reached the national treasury.
The regional tax office of Islamabad has already introduced a web-based restaurant invoice system in the entire city. The system has allowed the FBR to monitor the payments received by the restaurants digitally.
The data from the newly installed systems have been sent to the regional tax office. It has been further recommended that the restaurants be classified under different categories according to their electricity and gas bills and be charged taxes accordingly.

Fatty Bao is the newest, funkiest, hippest restaurant in town that is not just cool but a gastronomic delight. Located in the Sangam Courtyard in Delhi, it is a fantastic new addition to the Delhi restaurantosphere.
The décor is unique to say the least as murals of all sizes adorn the walls of the restaurant. They are all customized and extremely interesting.
Our meal began with the delicious char sui bao. It was a great combination with the kimchi and the hoisin complimenting the pork belly beautifully. The belly was cooked just right and the sweet and salty combo worked well.
My favourite starter was next, the beautiful salmon carpaccio. The sauce that it was covered in was exquisite to say the least. The soy and yuzu balanced the fish so well and enhanced its flavour.
We also had lovely grilled oysters, that were freshly imported from Cochin. A word about the Fatty Bao protein sourcing, as they source the best quality meat of all kinds from all over the country, hence quality is never compromised.
The main courses had two of the most brilliant dishes I have had in an Asian restaurant. The chicken rendang was par excellence, simply the best i hvae had. The heat, the coconut and accompaniments combined to make it a really satisfying dish. Try it as soon as you can.
The Ramen is again a speciality here and when I tasted it I wasn't disappointed to say the least. The grilled seafood ramen was a huge bowl full of choicest fish and had delectable aroma and flavour.
The zen forest was the dessert I had and it was something so mind-blowing that it lead my partner to say that it was the best dessert she has ever had. There was a yuzu parfait along many different elements like a beetroot sorbet, sesame nougatine and a black sesame sponge. Each dish lent to the overall plate and when having all the elements , it was harmony of the best kind. This dish for me was my evening's highlight and has never really left my palette from the day.
We also had a Japanese cheesecake and on special request a portion of the Vahlrona chocolate ice cream. They were good too but the Zen forest is something too special to be missed.
Simply one of the best restaurants in Delhi, Fatty Bao has elevated Asian cuisine in the city and how! Kudos.

We have a great selection of heavy duty tarps. If you are looking for something that will last, you need our heavy duty tarps. In order to decide what heavy duty is, you need to look at a few factors. First, you should look at the weight per square yard. The higher the number, the better the quality. Also the weave count is important. A 10x8 weave count is a light weight, whereas a 14X14 weave is heavy duty. Denier and coating is also factors in heavy duty tarps. Denier is the measurement of thickness of a tarp, and the coating will determine how well it will stand up to sun and weather. All of these tarps below are considered heavy duty. Please click below to get the details for each tarp.

Bursting bubbles launch bacteria from water to air
Wherever there's water, there's bound to be bubbles floating at the surface. From standing puddles, lakes, and streams, to swimming pools, hot tubs, public fountains, and toilets, bubbles are ubiquitous, indoors and out.
A new MIT study shows how bubbles contaminated with bacteria can act as tiny microbial grenades, bursting and launching microorganisms, including potential pathogens, out of the water and into the air.
In the study, published today in the journal Physical Review Letters, the researchers found that bacteria can affect a bubble's longevity: A bacteria-covered bubble floating at the water's surface can last more than 10 times longer than an uncontaminated one can, persisting for minutes instead of seconds. During this time, the cap of the contaminated bubble thins. The thinner the bubble, the higher the number of droplets it can launch into the air when the bubble inevitably bursts. A single droplet, the researchers estimate, can carry up to thousands of microorganisms, and each bubble can emit hundreds of droplets.
"We discovered bacteria can manipulate interfaces in a manner that can enhance their own water-to-air dispersal," says Lydia Bourouiba, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering and director of the Fluid Dynamics of Disease Transmission Laboratory.
Bourouiba's co-author on the paper is graduate student Stephane Poulain.
When an old bubble bursts at the water surface, its cap fragments into numerous small droplets.
Bourouiba has spent the past several years meticulously generating, imaging, and characterizing clean, uncontaminated bubbles, with the goal of establishing a baseline of normal bubble behavior.
"We first had to understand the physics of clean bubbles before we could add organisms like bacteria to see what effect they have on the system," Bourouiba says.
As it happens, the researchers first noticed bacteria's effect somewhat by accident. The team was in the midst of moving to a new lab space, and in the shuffle, a beaker of water had been left out in the open. When the researcher used it in subsequent experiments, the results were not what the team expected.
"The bubbles produced from this water lived much longer and had a peculiar thinning evolution compared to that of typical clean water bubbles," Poulain says.
Bourouiba suspected the water had been contaminated, and the team soon confirmed her hypothesis. They analyzed the water and found evidence of bacteria that are naturally present indoors.
The juice effect
To directly study bacteria's effect on bubbles, the team set up an experiment in which they filled a column with a solution of water and various bacteria species, including E. coli. The researchers developed a system to generate bubbles with an air pump, one at a time, inside the column, in order to control the volume and size of each bubble. When a bubble rose to the surface, the team used high-speed imaging coupled with a range of optical techniques to capture its behavior, at the surface and as it burst.
The researchers observed that, once a bubble contaminated with E. coli made it to the water's surface, its own surface, or cap, immediately started to thin, mostly by draining back into the water, like a melting shell of chocolate. This behavior was similar to that of uncontaminated bubbles.
But the contaminated bubbles remained on the surface more than 10 times longer than uncontaminated bubbles. And after a critical period of time, the bacteria-laden bubbles started thinning much faster. Bourouiba suspected that it might not be the bacteria themselves, but what they secrete, that holds the bubble in place for longer.
"Bacteria are alive, and like anything alive, they make waste, and that waste typically is something that potentially could interact with the bubble's interface," Bourouiba says. "So we separated the organisms from their 'juice.'"
The researchers washed bacteria away from their secretions, then repeated their experiments, using the bacteria's secretions. Just as Bourouiba suspected, the bubbles containing the secretions alone lasted much longer than clean bubbles. The secretions, the group concluded, must be the key ingredient in extending a bubble's lifetime. But how?
Again, Bourouiba had a hypothesis: Bacterial secretions may be acting to reduce a bubble's surface tension, making it more elastic, more resistant to perturbations, and in the end, more likely to live longer on a water's surface. This behavior, she noted, was similar to surface-active compounds, or surfactants, such as the compounds in detergents that make soap bubbles.
To test this idea, the researchers repeated the experiments, this time by swapping out bacteria for common synthetic surfactants, and found that they too produced longer-lasting bubbles that also thinned dramatically after a certain time period. This experiment confirmed that bacteria's secretions act as surfactants extending the lifetime of contaminated bubbles.
The researchers then looked for an explanation for the drastic change in a contaminated bubble's rate of thinning. In clean bubbles, the thinning of the cap was mostly the result of drainage, as water in the cap mostly drains back into the fluid from which the bubble rose. Such bubbles live on the order of seconds, and their drainage speed continuously slows down as the bubble thins.
But if a bubble lasts past a critical time, evaporation starts playing a more dominant role than drainage, essentially shaving off water molecules from the bubble's cap. The researchers concluded that, if a bubble contains bacteria, the bacteria and their secretions, make a bubble last longer on a water's surface — long enough that evaporation becomes more important than drainage in thining the bubble's cap.
As a bubble's cap gets thinner, the droplets it will spray out when it inevitably bursts become smaller, faster, and more numerous. The team found that a single bacteria-laden bubble can create 10 times more droplets, which are 10 times smaller and ejected 10 times faster than what a clean bubble can produce. This amounts to hundreds of droplets that measure only a few dozens of microns and that are emitted at speeds of the order of 10 meters per second.
Droplets from bursting bubbles are expelled in the atmosphere, where they can be transported for a long time.
"The mechanism [Bourouiba] identified is also at work when foam bubbles burst at the surface of the ocean," says Andrea Prosperetti, a professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Houston, who was not involved in the research. "The size of these tiny film droplets determines how well they can be picked up and carried by the wind. This process has significant implications for climate and weather. The same basic process affects the health hazards of oil spills in the ocean: The tiny film drops carry hazardous chemicals from the oil, which can be inhaled by people and animals in the coastal regions. So, these humble, tiny drops have outsized consequences in many processes crucial to life."

THE DAIQUIRI GIRLS
Heartache, loneliness, and abundant booze (hence the title) shape the lives of the four San Franciscan women in this debut collection, winner of the AWP Award for Short Fiction. The volume, sectioned off into tales about Jane, Magdalena, Zoe, and Victoria, isolates the source of despair in each woman's life and extrapolates from it small scenarios that offer character portraits. In the opening story, "Kilter," Jane mourns the death of Lars, her lover, decapitated in a car accident a few years ago. She weeps on his grave, goes on drinking binges, and attempts communication with her grown-up daughter. In the next Jane story, a —Guest— comes to visit her—-a man she met at an airport. She hesitantly takes him to bed, though the memory of Lars still lies between them. In "Blood Bank," the first of the Magda stories, Magda faces a hysterectomy and the success of the husband who has left her. Zoe, too, is going through a divorce, and deals with the pain by using chemical peels as her therapy, shucking the outward married woman to reveal the emptiness she feels herself to be without her husband. In later Zoe stories, Zoe struggles both with her daily work routine as a graphic artist and with bouts of heavy drinking. The last eight pieces focus on Victoria, who starts out happily married to Peter. Soon enough, however, he begins a life of persistent flirtation (and drinking). In "Endings," Victoria and Philip, an alcoholic, depressive magician, enjoy a true love affair, discovered by Peter, who in the previous story has already realized his role as cuckold. In ensuing tales, Victoria and Peter separate, Philip goes to jail, she begins an affair with her psychiatrist and is eventually left to sleep alone, as are the rest of Graham's women. Men leaving, women drinking, and repetitive plots leave the collection, although well written, also redundant and limited in impact. Read full book review >

It's Hard Being a Black Conservative
written by Alan Caruba April 24, 2014
Alan Caruba
Alan Caruba passed away in June 2015. Best known as a commentator on issues ranging from environmentalism to energy, immigration to Islam, Alan Caruba wrote two recent books, "Right Answers: Separating Fact from Fantasy" and "Warning Signs", both collections of his commentaries since 2000 and both published by Merril Press of Bellevue, Washington.
His commentaries were posted on many leading news and opinion websites, and frequently picked up and shared by blogs as well. Once posted daily on his blog site, http://factsnotfantasy.blogspot.com, known as "Warning Signs", he was the founder of The National Anxiety Center'scommentaries, which enjoyed widespread popularity. The Center is a clearinghouse for information about "scare campaigns" designed to influence public opinion and policy.

"We're not being governed. We're being ruled by incompetence."
It is refreshing to read a book that reflects one's own views and "Guardian of the Republic" by Allen West, a former Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army for over twenty years and a former, one-term congressman from Florida, who is perhaps best known these days as a Fox News channel contributor, is such a book. He is a very conservative, articulate black American.
As he points out, "The Left must destroy black conservatives because it cannot afford to have freethinking, independent-minded black Americans. When the Left wins, our community loses. The result of such blind loyalty is that many black voters have come to resemble Vladimir Lenin's 'useful idiots.' They make up an electorate that is completely taken for granted and no one even bothers to listen."
It is ironic that the first black President will not only be remembered as our worst, but that his failure will reflect on the entire black community in America even while men like West and other blacks of real achievement exist.
For now, it is definitely an uphill struggle for black conservatives, particularly for those in public life. "The mainstream media," says West, "have a clear tendency to recruit other blacks to denigrate and demean black conservatives" and have "sought to disrespect and deny the existence of black conservatives, but they're losing the battle and they realize it. The big lie that has resulted in the twenty-first century economic plantation will be exposed and defeated, and our community will be restored."
I don't know when I first heard West, but I suspect it was during his run for Congress. I do recall I was instantly and enormously impressed. He won that race and served from 2011 to 2013 representing Florida's 22nd District. His race for reelection was a classic case of electoral tampering, misconduct, and political slander by those who wanted to defeat him.
"One of my biggest frustrations and concerns about America (is that) our electorate doesn't have a clue about who we are or whence we came." Much of his book is devoted to a mini-history lesson regarding the founders, the Constitution, and the principles that set America on the path to greatness among nations. West holds two masters degrees; one from Kansas State University in political science and the second from the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College in military arts and sciences.
He had just over twenty years to practice military arts, but he had set his heart on joining the Army early on, joining the ROTC in college and thereafter being recognized at every stage for his intellect and his leadership skills. He was deployed to Kuwait in 1991 and Iraq in 2003.
West is plain-spoken. He defines our fundamental governing principles as "limited government, fiscal responsibility, a free market, individual sovereignty, a strong national defense, and an understanding that all of man's freedoms come ultimately from God."
And then he says, "Measured against our fundamental governing principles, we clearly do not have good government—heck, we suck! We have excessive debt, growing poverty, exploding deficits, an expanding nanny-state, and an anemic economy."
"The sad thing is," says West, "there seems to be no reprieve in sight. Why? Because, as a nation, we have become uninterested, uninformed, and disengaged from the truth."
Throughout his book, West mixes lessons regarding the system the Founders implemented and his fears about the present generations of Americans, given the last two elections. "I fear national-level elections have become nothing more than a version of American Idol," says West at one point. He concludes his first book saying, "We have to turn off the brain-draining reality TV shows for a few hours and read, think, assess, and challenge ourselves to be better."
West has had a remarkable life to this point and he could choose to make a lot of money in some corporate position or as an entrepreneur, but he wants to reach out, not just to the black community, but to all Americans because he is worried about where President Obama has taken the nation he loves and wants to see it saved from unimaginable and unconscionable debt.
We need a lot more men like Allen West. The black community needs to pay him and other black conservatives more attention. The rest of us should hope that a change in future administrations will bring his talent to bear on the restoration of America.

Q: MouseEvent not dispatching on movie clip I know this must be easy but somehow I have not been able to figure it out after spending more than hours. I have two movie clips in a class that extends Sprite. When I add event listener to the stage every thing works fine. But when I try to add event listener to one of the movie clips, the event never dispatches it seems. Here is how it looks like -
public class MyClass extends Sprite
{
    private var movieclip1:MovieClip, movieclip2:MovieClip;

    private function init(e:Event == null):void
    {
         movieclip1 = new MovieClip();
         movieclip2 = new MovieClip();
         //works fine, dispatches event
         stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN. mousedown);
         //not working
         movieclip1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mousedown);
         addChild(movieclip1);
         addChild(movieclip2);
    }
}

Actually I want both the movie clips to work mutually exclusively, i.e., a mouse event on one movie clip should not interfere with that of the other. Any pointers?

A: Empty MovieClips and Sprites CANNOT be sized, they will be 0,0 and then they will not be able to dispatch MouseEvents.
You can resize a MovieClip when it has some content.
The Sprite will be of the size of the rectangle that encloses the 2 MovieClip.
If the MovieClips are empty = 0,0 the Sprite will be 0,0
About the events between the 2 MovieClips:
They are not going to interfere because the events when are bubbling goes upwards.
So the listeners put on MC1 will listen ONLY onClick on MC1 and the same does MC2

A: You can trace the width and height of the movieclip1 or movieclip2, you will get 0 both.
So, you can't click them.
You can use graphcis to draw a shape in these two mcs, and try again.

Over ongoing delays and cost overruns.
The Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission has terminated its contract with NEC Australia for a new national biometrics database after walking staff off the project earlier this month.
In a statement, the agency said it made the decision to "discontinue" the biometric identification services (BIS) project in "light of project delays".
"The contract with NEC Australia to deliver the BIS project has today been terminated," ACIC CEO Michael Phelan said.
ACIC is understood to have asked NEC staff working on the project to leave last week.
The commission repeatedly declined to comment on the status of the project when asked by iTnews last week.
The BIS project was intended to replace the existing national automated fingerprint identification system (NAFIS), which contains in excess of eight million records.
The system is used by police across Australia and the Department of Home Affairs to establish an individual's identity from their fingerprint and palm impressions or prints.
ACIC signed a $52 million contract with NEC in April 2016 to develop the new system by June 2018.
But problems with the projects, first made known in a PwC report obtained by the Canberra Times in January, have seen costs spiral.
The report found project costs had grown from the $52 million budget approved by the Department of Finance to $94.6 million by November last year.
It also said the system was unlikely be delivered in time for the June 2018 deadline after "a systemic pattern of delay", which could force the agency to extend NAFIS by another 12 months.
NAFIS was originally developed by Morpho (now IDEMIA).
An ACIC deal with Morpho for systems development grew by $20.3 million in the wake of ACIC's decision to walk NEC staff, though the agency declined to comment on the nature of the contract.
The Australian National Audit Office is now conducting an audit into the project at the request of the ACIC.
"The ACIC is committed to delivering projects that enhance capability for our law enforcement partners," Phelan said.
NEC said it was "extremely disappointed" by ACIC's decision given the "BIS solution was ready to be handed over … for systems acceptance testing when the project was placed on hold".
"NEC has worked closely with the ACIC to deliver the BIS project and have clearly demonstrated … that we already have a high quality solution that will meet their needs," it said in a statement.
The company also highlighted that the project was terminated "under the 'termination for convenience' clause, and not because NEC had been in breach of its obligations".
The BIS project is the second deal that NEC has lost control over in recent months.
Just last month, the Department of Education was forced to cease work on the national apprenticeship management system over ongoing delays with its launch date.
While this was ultimately the result of poor project management on the department's part, there were also a number of critical defects with the NEC system.

Getting a job to help support his family was foremost in the mind of John Louise Sualog when he walked on stage to receive his senior high school diploma in the Philippines in April.
The 18-year old from Palo municipality in Leyte province is among 1.2 million young Filipinos who finished for the first time the country's K-12 basic education program.
Unlike its neighbors in the region, the Philippines only implemented the 12-year compulsory basic education in recent years.
The country used to be the only one in Asia, and only one of three in the world, that observed a 10-year compulsory education cycle.
More recently, in 2017, President Duterte signed a law providing free tuition for Filipino students at 112 state universities and colleges.
"I'm excited to start work. It's already time for me to apply the training I received in school so I can earn money to help my family," said Sualog, who finished an electrical maintenance course.
Christian Montilla, a classmate of Sualog, said he now plans to return to the construction company he left to complete his studies, to apply for a better job there.
Myrabelle Lopez, one of the top students of the graduating class, said the new educational program paves the way for "experiential learning."
She said she acquired "essential and basic skills and knowledge that I must possess to be globally competitive" during the course of her education.
Under the new program, the additional two years of senior high school allow students to choose their field of specialization from various fields.
Despite some hesitation in the past, private educational institutions have joined in the clamor for better quality education through the new program.
Father Anthony Salas, chairman of the board of Liceo del Verbo Divino, a Catholic school in Tacloban, said the new curriculum would help the country reclaim the high academic standard it used to be proud of.
The priest said the quality of education a young person receives depends not only on the quality of the teachers but also on the time they can dedicate to the task.
Father Salas said the new program allows students to think critically and solve problems "because that is how they are supposed to contribute to society."
He said the Catholic Church, through its educational institutions, allows students "to awaken their spiritual forces to become cultured people and become fully human."
The priest said that Catholic education in the country would continue "to purify and harness our humanity."
Education Secretary Leonor Briones said the government is doing its best "to correct whatever needs to be corrected" in the new program.
"We are not saying we are perfect, but there are significant reforms [needed] and that has to be recognized," he said.
Various groups have blasted the authors of the new curriculum for what they see as a lack of sufficient preparatory work before it was implemented, as well as the absence of enough skilled teachers.
For Lopez, who is graduating with honors in the accountancy, business and management strand of the program, the government can still improve the curriculum.
"I might get left behind," she told ucanews.com, adding that she is taking political science in college, a course not related to her basic education program.
However, officials have assured the new graduates the program will benefit them in the long run.
In Manila, Senator Grace Poe has filed a resolution urging the private sector to employ the first batch of senior high school graduates.
The legislator said the successful implementation of reforms in the educational system requires the cooperation of the private sector.
One of the key selling points of the program is that graduates of the basic education system are immediately ready for employment.
The new program was rolled out nationwide in 2016 after the law was enacted under former president Benigno Aquino in 2013.
Despite criticisms from various sectors, the program has since earned the support of the administration.


Integrative Health Centre is a professional natural health clinic dedicated to offering effective health care to our patients. Our alternative medicine clinic supports a wide variety of patients in their quest for health by providing an atmosphere of compassion, service, lifestyle education and natural health therapies. The most important focus of our practice is education. After all, the word "doctor" is derived from the Latin word 'docere', which means "to teach."
Integrative Health Centre has joined forces with the Healing Bridge Chiropractic Clinic in an effort to provide the most comprehensive care to our patients as possible. Our natural medical clinic now provides a complete multi-disciplinary experience including Naturopathic, Chiropractic, Massage Therapy, Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine services.
Your first visit to the Integrative Health Centre involves filling out a general information form, including the major health concerns you would like addressed. Your visit with the doctor will include an in-depth history of your present health concerns, diet, energy and sleep patterns, major surgeries and general health status. This will be followed by a general physical exam (external only), and possibly some generic testing procedures using physical muscle tests and electro-dermal acupuncture testing.
Because we believe that education is an important factor in the success of the program, the bulk of the visit is used to explain what is happening within your body and what is needed to correct the imbalance. The information is then used to design a program with the individual, using lifestyle and supplements to achieve the desired result.
Just because we are an alternative medical clinic doesn't mean we don't utilize the latest in modern medical techniques. Naturopathic doctors are educated in all aspects of physical care therefore recent medical lab testing is an important part of the diagnosis and management of the patient. We request that the patient bring in any recent blood work to be evaluated during the visit and we may, if we feel it necessary, provide the patient with a requisition for any additional lab work we feel would be helpful.
A second visit will be scheduled one month later to evaluate the progress of the patient and make any necessary changes. At this time, specialized testing such as live blood analysis or urinalysis may be conducted to aid in achieving an accurate diagnosis as well as an optimal state of functioning in the body. Subsequent visits will then be scheduled in three to six month intervals. We encourage you to ask questions and address all concerns that you might have, as one symptom may be related to another symptom going on at the same time in the body.
The Integrative Health Centre is a full-service alternative medicine clinic, which means we are equipped with an extensive and highly specialized medicinary. Our medicinary carries a wide variety of professional vitamins, minerals, herbals, homeopathic, and glandular medications. This provides a unique experience for most individuals who have become accustomed to having to make multiple visits to various labs and pharmacies.
We have made a commitment to our patients to provide only the highest quality, most effective products as possible. Therefore, the majority of these medications are not available in local health stores and many are imported from Europe and around the world.
See our Fee Guide for more information on all of the fees associated with each of our natural health clinic services.
Be sure to check your health insurance plan as most cover naturopathic visits as part of their Extended Health Benefits coverage.


The 374th Operations Group (374 OG) is the operational flying component of the United States Air Force 374th Airlift Wing. It is stationed at Yokota Air Base, Japan.
The unit's World War II predecessor unit, the 374th Troop Carrier Group operated primarily in the Southwest Pacific Theater, being formed in Australia in 1942 using resources from the Air Carrier Service (formerly Air Transport Command). The group employed a large variety of aircraft to perform air transport of troops, cargo, and evacuation of the wounded, earning two United States Distinguished Unit Citations (DUCs) in Papua New Guinea. In January–February 1943, the group supplied Allied forces during the battle of Wau airstrip, making landings at the airstrip under enemy fire and earning its third DUC. When the Korean War broke out in June 1950, was the only air transport group in the Far East. During the Cold War, the group airlifted wounded French troops from Indo-China to Japan, en route to France. Inactivated in 1958, the group was reactivated in 1966 at Naha AB, Okinawa as part of 315th Air Division and was active in the Vietnam War. Since that time its assigned squadrons have conducted special operations, aeromedical evacuations, search and rescue operations, humanitarian relief and theater airlift missions in support of US and United Nations security interests throughout the Far East.
The group has never been assigned to the United States.
The 374 OG maintains a forward presence by providing rapid responsive movement of personnel, equipment and operational support in the Asia-Pacific region. Ensures the combat readiness of three operational squadrons using C-130J, C-12J and UH-1N aircraft. Conducts three distinct missions; intratheater airlift, aeromedical evacuation and distinguished visitor transport for U.S. Pacific Command and other agencies in support of national security policy.
Only forward-based tactical airlift squadron in the Pacific. Maintains a forward presence and supports combat operations by providing responsive movement of personnel and equipment through aerial delivery and assault airland operations. Maintains C-130J mission-ready aircrew to conduct theater airlift, special operations, aeromedical evacuation, search and rescue, repatriation and humanitarian relief missions.
Maintains a forward presence in the Pacific and provides responsive airlift support for distinguished visitors, as well as other priority passengers and cargo, on travel vital to the national security interest of the United States. Maintains both UH-1N and C-12J mission-ready aircrews to conduct aeromedical evacuation, search and rescue and priority airlift missions throughout the Pacific.
Maintains a forward presence in the Western Pacific, supporting U.S. Pacific Command interests. Provides for flight operations, intelligence, combat survival, aviation resource management, aircrew training, life support, weather forecasting and observing, combat tactics, mission scheduling, airfield management and air traffic control. Supports the group staff and two airlift squadrons operating UH-1N, C-12J and C-130H aircraft.
For additional lineage and history, see 374th Airlift WingThe 374th Troop Carrier Group drew its resources from the Air Carrier Service (formerly Air Transport Command) Allied Air Forces, Southwest Pacific Area when it formed in November 1942. It had four troop carrier squadrons assigned, the 21st and 22d were veterans of the South Pacific Area. During the remainder of 1942 and early 1943, the group employed a large variety of aircraft to perform air transport of troops, cargo, and evacuation of the wounded, earning two Distinguished Unit Citations (DUCs) in Papua. In January–February 1943, the group supplied Allied forces during the battle of Wau airstrip, making landings at the airstrip under enemy fire and earning its third DUC. From mid-Feb to July 1943, the group transported personnel and supplies to three principal areas: Dobodura, where a large base was being constructed; Wau and Bulolo, rear bases for advancing Allied forces; and to patrols skirting Lae and Salamau.
During Jul and August 1943, the group trained elements of the 375th, 403d, and 433d Troop Carrier Groups. When the campaign against Lae opened on 5 September 1943, the 374th led aircraft of those groups in a drop of US airborne troops and Australian artillery paratroops at Nadzab airdrome. The next day, as vegetation around the captured airdrome still burned, the group landed engineer troops and equipment to repair the damaged runways, and artillery to protect the captured airstrip. After the capture of Lae ten days later, the group flew 303 trips moving large stores of ammo, supplies, and equipment for use of advancing ground troops. From October 1943 – May 1944, the 374th maintained an unending flow of troops and equipment, including arms and ammunition, to units scattered throughout Australia and New Guinea areas. It continued to provide these services and in November 1944 commenced cargo and personnel flights to Leyte in the Philippines, which required three days for a round trip. By January 1945, flights in the New Guinea and Australian areas continued, but flights to the Philippines almost ceased until the group moved to Nielson Field near Manila and remained until the end of the war.
The group participated in training maneuvers with army and naval forces in the Pacific Theater until May 1946. From October 1946 – April 1947, it provided troop carrier and air courier services and participated in joint maneuvers in the Pacific.
It moved to Japan in March 1949 and when the Korean War broke out in June 1950, was the only air transport group in the Far East. For its work between 27 June and 15 September 1950, transporting vital cargo, personnel and evacuating wounded men, the 374th earned its fourth DUC. In April 1953, the group transported the first of several groups of repatriated prisoners of war from Korea to Japan.
Beginning in January 1954, the 374th airlifted wounded French troops from Indo-China to Japan, en route to France. Principal operations from 1955 until 1958 consisted of numerous mobility exercises, routine theater airlift, and occasional exercises throughout the Western Pacific region.
Activated as an Operations Group under the objective wing structure in April 1992, the group gained control over the 374th Airlift Wing's operational squadrons. From 1992 to present, the 374th Operation Group's assigned squadrons conducted special operations, aeromedical evacuations, search and rescue operations, humanitarian relief and theater airlift missions in support of US and UN security interests throughout the Far East.

THE STORY OF THE MORNING AFTER BAND
The Morning After band was started in 2013 by long-time friends, Dirk Klut and Gerhard Oosthuizen, when they recognised a huge need in the wedding market for a professional live wedding band. At the time there were very few live bands playing weddings and today there is still only a handful that specialise in this niche market. Since then they have travelled across southern and central Africa to not only perform at weddings but corporates and special events too.
The band is headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa but as their extensive travel suggests they can take their services wherever a client needs it to go. The Morning After offers a tailored service to suit the needs and pocket of each event. DJ, audio and lighting services bolster their robust service offering to clients, ensuring that every event entertainment detail is taken care of so there is no need to manage several service providers. The Morning After takes care of it all.

Name an instrument and Gerhard can probably play it, but in The Morning After he is both the occasional vocalist and the guy slapping the bass. G is a seasoned musician that played for several popular South African acts before he teamed up with his best friend and business partner, Dirk to form The Morning After. G takes care of the operational side of the band with an uncanny ability to sort out and organise just about anything. It helps that he is the ultimate people's person, so it's pretty hard to say no to him. When he grows up he hopes to grow a big bushy beard, which will go well with his dream car – a Mustang. G plays a lot of Clash of Clans, so don't think he is constantly checking his emails on his iPad, he's probably busy with a raid. He is also known for cracking a lot of jokes (of the dad jokes variety), so when you hear his booming laughter just go with it!

When he's not working on perfecting his fashion sense, Dirk is killing it on guitar and vocals in The Morning After. He defies all the musician stereotypes with his perfectionist tendencies earning him a lot of "abuse" from the rest of the band. It's all a show though because they would be lost without his unrivalled attention to detail and they know it. Dirk's been making music for more than two decades, teaching himself to play guitar with Eric Clapton's "Unplugged" album. Verse for verse and chorus for chorus, he didn't give up until he could play every song. This just gives a tiny bit of insight into his work ethic, dedication and passion for music. Dirk loves to travel, reading biographies and crafting guitars from scratch. When he is not being cultured, you can find him and Gerhard playing Blackjack and Roulette. They are yet to win big.

There are a lot of unflattering stereotypes about drummers floating around – they are always late; they can't read (what?); that drumming is the easiest gig in a band… you get the picture. When it comes to Shannon, check all these stereotypes at the door. He is always on time, he is a genius (for real, challenge him to a game of trivial pursuit genius edition if you dare) and drumming is not just bashing around, it's a pretty technical skill. Drummers are the backbone of a song, which they can completely break if they lose coordination or focus for a second. Thankfully it's not all serious, Shannon is the band clown and if you let him he will tell you the same joke a thousand times! Jokes aside, he is a SAMA award-winning musician, an avid golfer (5 handicap thank you very much) and is the real-life equivalent of Bob the Builder. Can he fix it? Yes he can!

PM Nikol Pashinyan Challenges The Opposition To Early Elections.
Today, PM Nikol Pashinyan held a rally at Republic Square where he challenged the opposition to early snap parliamentary elections.
Speaking in front of a crowd of tens of thousands, Pashinyan said "We are confident that people are able to establish legitimate power in the country through free expression of will."
"They (the opposition) had all chances to demonstrate in the squares that people demand my resignation, but they failed to. I'm giving a second chance, I'm making this challenge. Let's go and see whose resignation people demand, to see what people demand," the PM said.
Pashinyan said they had even thought about slogans for the campaign, and one of them would be "End to Velvet."
"You have raised me to the ranks of Prime Minister, and you, only you are eligible to remove me from the post," the Prime Minister said, addressing the public.
"We will not be seeking our victory in those elections, we will be seeking your victory, because you have to win. Only one force – the people -should be the winner in the Republic of Armenia," he stated.

Toyota halts production after a possible cyber attack on a supplier
Cynthia Motley February 28, 2022 2 min read
Toyota, the world's largest automaker, said on Monday it had suspended all production in Japan after a possible cyber attack on a major supplier.
The discontinuation followed a problem with computer systems at Kojima Industries, a maker of auto components, that disrupted the company's ordering systems. A company spokesperson said that the problem first surfaced on Saturday night, and the company decided to shut down its computer network to prevent the problem from spreading to customers.
Kojima Industries has not yet been able to determine the cause of the problem, but it suspects a cyber attack or virus. The company's website remained down on Monday evening.
In remarks at a press conference on the situation in Ukraine, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said the government was aware of Toyota's shutdown and was investigating the cause.
Cyber attacks have become increasingly common in Japan in recent years. Japanese companies have been slow to modernize their networks to take into account the growing use of ransomware by criminals, as well as government interventions. The most common targets for attacks have been manufacturers, who can essentially hold computer systems and valuable data hostage.
Like many other automakers, Toyota was forced to drastically reduce production after the pandemic wreaked havoc on global supply chains and led to shortages of semiconductors and other components.
Last year, after the initial waves of the virus passed and global demand for cars increased, Toyota announced optimistic plans to produce 9.3 million units worldwide by March 31, the end of the fiscal year.
But the increasing demand for semiconductors and frequent waves of infection forced the company to reduce those plans first to nine million and then in February to eight and a half million.

Even before the problems at Kojima Industries, Toyota planned a temporary shutdown in March at several plants in Japan due to a shortage of parts.
A Toyota spokeswoman said that the suspension announced on Monday includes 14 local Toyota factories and will affect the production of 13,000 cars, adding that the company cannot yet say how long the factories will remain idle.
Despite the setbacks, Toyota has been able to use lessons learned during the 2011 earthquake and tsunami that devastated northeastern Japan to adapt to the pandemic's disruptions better than its competitors, topping global auto sales charts for two consecutive years.
Hino, a Toyota subsidiary that makes heavy trucks and buses, said in a statement Monday that it will temporarily halt production at two plants due to problems with an unspecified supplier. Another subsidiary, Daihatsu, has also halted some production, according to local media reports.

It's not very often that a home designed by 'starchitect' Glenn Murcutt hits the market, which explains why this Bowral property will cost you such a sizeable sum.
This Glenn Murcutt-designed house in Bowral is up for sale.
Design junkies rejoice, the rare opportunity to own a genuine Murcutt creation has just surfaced in the Southern Highlands of NSW.
For those who aren't connoisseurs of architecture, here's a crash course — Glenn Murcutt is a home grown "starchitect" and the only Aussie to ever win the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize, one of the highest distinctions in the design world.
A look at the incredible home.
It comes with plenty of land as well.
His homes don't often hit the market but when they do, buyers can expect a pretty significant price tag. This contemporary Bowral homestead on a sprawling 40ha off Old South Rd is expected to sell for more than $6 million through Ben Olofsen of The Agency.
"This home was designed by one of Australia's most well-known architects — it really is a one of a kind property," Mr Olofsen said.
The designer home on the Beacon Hill estate just 7kms from town was completed in 1991 for the late Justice Roderick Pitt Meagher and his wife, Penny.
The house was completed in 1991.
Meagher, AO and QC, served as president of the NSW Bar Association from 1979 to 1881 and was a Justice of the NSW Supreme Court from 1989 until his retirement in 2004. He was also a descendant of William Pitt the Younger, former UK Prime Minister.
In the 1960s, Elma Penelope "Penny" Meagher became the director of the Macquarie Galleries in Sydney.
The Beacon Hill estate, which was the Sydney couple's high-end weekender, was named after a World War II radio beacon which once stood nearby on its highest point to transmit radio signals from Sydney to Canberra.
It was designed to capture the picturesque natural landscape so much of the home, which features wide walls of panoramic glass, has sweeping views. This connection to nature was one of Murcutt's strong suits and it was for his innovative and environmentally sensitive buildings that earned him the 2002 Pritzker gong.
It is incredibly private and luxurious.
"It's on a large land holding in an exclusive enclave overlooking Mittagong and Bowral and the way is has been design, it really fit into the local landscape," Mr Olofsen said.
Known for his dedication to light, nature and minimalism Murcutt's Casa Meagher (as it has been affectionately named) is a showcase of his memorable work.
Several years ago the owners completed a thorough and sympathetic renovation and extension.
"It has been updated and there has been careful attention paid to naturally blending in with Murcutt's design so you wouldn't spot the difference really," he said.
The private residence, which is surrounded by leafy gums, has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a separate studio space with its own fireplace, multiple internal and external living areas as well as a gym, sauna, play room, heated pool and spa.
In the spacious open plan kitchen there is a long freestanding island bench, gourmet appliances and streamline access to the grand courtyard dining area.
Additional designer features include electric opening windows and sun blinds with wind sensor retraction capabilities, low grounds and fully-fenced grazing land that includes horse paddocks, arenas and stables, plus natural springs, droughtproof dams, sheds and storage areas.

Q: WPF: Cant find correct BorderBrush after setting Style I have a button which I apply a style too. After the style is applied I have a test that checks the BorderBrush of the button to make sure the style was correctly applied. This test always fails, because the BorderBrush never gets updated in the Buttons properties.
Is there a way for me to get the actual BorderBrush being displayed? All i can get is the default BorderBrush, not the applied styles value.
The style I am using is this:
    <Style  x:Key="ActiveModuleBtnStyleOn" TargetType="Button">
    <Setter Property="Template">
        <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
                <Grid>
                    <Border Margin="0"
                                    BorderThickness="3"
                                    BorderBrush="Green"
                                    Background="White"
                                    VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
                                    CornerRadius="4"
                                    HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
                        <Border.Effect>
                            <DropShadowEffect BlurRadius="10" Color="Black" Direction="325" Opacity=".5" RenderingBias="Quality" ShadowDepth="5" />
                        </Border.Effect>
                    </Border>
                    <TextBlock Margin="2" Text="{TemplateBinding Content}" TextWrapping="Wrap" TextAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
                </Grid>
            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
    <Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="true"/>
</Style>

Then I apply the style like this:
if(var1 == 1)
  TopologyNvTxBtn.Style = this.FindResource("ActiveModuleBtnStyleOn") as Style;
else
  TopologyNvTxBtn.Style = this.FindResource("ActiveModuleBtnStyleOff") as Style;

In my test app, I want to check which style has been applied. The difference between the two styles is the border brush. I would like to do something like this:
if(TopologyNvTxBtn.BorderBrush == Brushes.Green)
  return PASS;

But the BorderBrush never changes (e.g. in a watch window, it stays the same as the default buttons style BorderBrush), but its definitely applied correctly as in the GUI it turns green.
How can i access this property in my test?
Many thanks in advance

A: The BorderBrush property of the Button is not bound to anything in your template. You need to do this in the control template:
<Style  x:Key="ActiveModuleBtnStyleOn" TargetType="Button">
<Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Green" />
<Setter Property="Template">
    <Setter.Value>
        <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type Button}">
            <Grid>
                <Border Margin="0"
                                BorderThickness="3"
                                BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
                                Background="White"
                                VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
                                CornerRadius="4"
                                HorizontalAlignment="Stretch">
                    <Border.Effect>
                        <DropShadowEffect BlurRadius="10" Color="Black" Direction="325" Opacity=".5" RenderingBias="Quality" ShadowDepth="5" />
                    </Border.Effect>
                </Border>
                <TextBlock Margin="2" Text="{TemplateBinding Content}" TextWrapping="Wrap" TextAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
            </Grid>
        </ControlTemplate>
    </Setter.Value>
</Setter>
<Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="true"/>
</Style>

Notice how the BorderBrush is now bound to the BorderBrush property of the Button. Then you you can set the BorderBrush in the style and should be able to access it in this way:
if(TopologyNvTxBtn.BorderBrush == Brushes.Green)

Let me know if that works.
Cheers,
Eric

A: As I stated above, the Border is part of the Button ControlTemplate. I just launched Blend and got a copy of the "Factory" template. With this, you can do pretty much everything with it (assuming you know about Stylying.):
    <Style x:Key="FocusVisual">
        <Setter Property="Control.Template">
            <Setter.Value>

                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>

                        <ContentPresenter x:Name="contentPresenter" Focusable="False" HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}" Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}" RecognizesAccessKey="True" SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}" VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>

                            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}}"/>
                        </Trigger>
                        <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="true">
                            <Setter Property="Background" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.MouseOver.Background}"/>

                            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Pressed.Border}"/>
                        </Trigger>
                        <Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">
                            <Setter Property="Background" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Disabled.Background}"/>
                            <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Disabled.Border}"/>
                            <Setter Property="TextElement.Foreground" TargetName="contentPresenter" Value="{StaticResource Button.Disabled.Foreground}"/>
                        </Trigger>
                    </ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>

MSDN has a good introductory tutorial about Style and Templates. Besides, you can find tons of articles around the web!
The Button itself is pretty much this:
<Border
         x:Name="border"
         Background="{TemplateBinding Background}"
         BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}"
         BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
         SnapsToDevicePixels="true">
         <ContentPresenter
            x:Name="contentPresenter"
            HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
            Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
            VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"
            Focusable="False"
            RecognizesAccessKey="True"
            SnapsToDevicePixels="{TemplateBinding SnapsToDevicePixels}"/>
</Border>

So, what your looking for is Triggers, you'll have to add and change as you wish these tags:
                <ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                    <Trigger Property="IsDefaulted" Value="true">
                        <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{DynamicResource {x:Static SystemColors.HighlightBrushKey}}"/>
                    </Trigger>
                    <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="true">
                        <Setter Property="Background" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.MouseOver.Background}"/>
                        <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.MouseOver.Border}"/>
                    </Trigger>
                    <Trigger Property="IsPressed" Value="true">
                        <Setter Property="Background" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Pressed.Background}"/>
                        <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Pressed.Border}"/>
                    </Trigger>
                    <Trigger Property="IsEnabled" Value="false">
                        <Setter Property="Background" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Disabled.Background}"/>
                        <Setter Property="BorderBrush" TargetName="border" Value="{StaticResource Button.Disabled.Border}"/>
                        <Setter Property="TextElement.Foreground" TargetName="contentPresenter" Value="{StaticResource Button.Disabled.Foreground}"/>
                    </Trigger>
                </ControlTemplate.Triggers>

Things to pay attention: TargetName and every <Trigger Property="IsDefaulted" Value="true"> alike!
Good luck!
