I write to thank you for your contribution to the Seniors Recreation Council of WA Inc's "Digital Photo Workshop". It was a pleasure to work with you and the feedback I have received from seniors in attendance has been extremely positive. The aim of this SRCWA Workshop in general was to encourage seniors to get out and be active with their cameras and start taking photos. One participant wrote "I thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt a lot of very valuable stuff, and it has reinvigorated my interest in photography." I believe we have achieved our goal. Your delivery to the audience was spot on as was your relaxed and friendly approach during the hands-on sessions. I have no hesitation in recommending One Sky Photography to those who may have an interest in developing their photographic skills in the future. Once again thank you for your efforts and we look forward to working with you in the future.
Have you got an office camera that no one really knows how to use? If you're just stuck on Auto mode then you're not capturing the best images to represent your business.
Photography workshops are a fun and interactive way for your employees to spend an afternoon together, while learning a skill that will last a lifetime. It also means they will have the ability to capture great images of your next corporate events, staff portraits etc. that can contribute to your marketing and social media.
Workshops can be arranged at your business or on location.
We've also arranged, for example, action photography lessons at Circus WA in Fremantle and the Ninja Academy in Osborne Park. Food Photography lessons have been organised at Little Creatures in Fremantle.
Workshops can culminate with an exhibition held in your office and prizes for the best photos, as judged by staff or customers.


Royal Spray Finishes is proud to announce that we have successfully completed the finishing of a custom, high-end front door for Boffo developments, B.C.'s leading boutique home builder.
The project is called "Artemisia", and is located in a central area in downtown Vancouver. This masterpiece features units starting at $1.1 Million dollars, and is just steps away from everything downtown has to offer.
The custom door is nearly 10ft high, and features oak wood crafted from the finest Oak Trees.
Royal Spray Finishes started as a professional refinishing shop in 1992, and since then has served over 1,200 satisfied customers. Started by Magic Rutkowsky, Royal Spray Finishes was an instant hit among large hotel chains and businesses that required extensive on-site refinishing of paneling, office desks, cabinetry, and wooden structures.


Seeing as we're aiming for a bleeding edge engine, there is no need to skip out on anything. A little bird whispered in my ear that there are other ways of performing lighting than the standardized simple blinn-phong method commonly used, and since we're on a pretty flexible budget when it comes to graphics performance, I thought I should give it a good looksie.
Note the specular light given off by the local lights which was previously non-existant.
A part of performing physically based lighting is to also use reflections and proper 'roughing' of the reflections. Reflections affects both specular light (since it's actually a reflection, go figure) and the final color of the surface. To account for this in our completely deferred renderer, the environment maps on reflective objects take roughness into account, and selects a specific mip-level in the environment map based on the roughness. The awesome tool (https://code.google.com/p/cubemapgen/) can take an ordinary cube map and generate mips where each mip is a BRDF approximation (actually there are several different algorithms, but for the sake of clarity we'll stick to Blinn-Phong BRDFs). We can also say to generate a new mip using a glossness falloff, resulting in a very good-looking mip-chain for our cube maps.
You have have come across this image http://seblagarde.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/reference_top_ref_bottom_mipchain.jpg showing a series of cube maps with different levels of reflectiveness, which is exactly what we are doing and what we want. Just to clarify, this is all precomputed using an original cube map and is not done in real-time! The more interesting part is that what is visible in your environment cube map is irrelevant. What is relevant is that the average color of the cube map fits your scene in terms of colors and lighting. In the pictures below, we have the same model ranging in roughness from 0-1.
As you can see, the roughness changes the surface look of the object dramatically, although still uses the exact same shader. Also note that using the skydome cube map as the reflective cube map is a bit ugly since it's half bright half dark. That's all!

Drewton's Farm Shop in East Yorkshire has picked up prestigious gold star ratings for two of its homemade products in the Guild of Fine Foods' 2014 Great Taste Awards.
The popular farm shop's span Traditional Pork Pie was given a gold star, which stands for 'Simply Delicious', and its span Sticky Toffee and Date Pudding received two gold stars after the panel of expert judges rated it 'Outstanding'. Both products appear on the menu in the Farm Shop's restaurant and tea room, but are also available for customers to buy to take home with them. They are made in-house using the finest local ingredients.
Katie Taylor, proprietor of Drewton's Farm Shop, said: "This is the latest in a string of awards that we've won for our homemade products. We believe that it's really important to invite industry experts to critique our products in this way; their feedback is an important way of gauging quality and making improvements where necessary. The Traditional Pork Pie and the Sticky Toffee and Date Pudding are both very popular with customers, so it's pleasing to see that the judging panel were in agreement."
Since the Great Taste Awards were established in 1994, more than 80,000 products from all over the UK have been blind tasted by expert judges. Only the very best receive a one, two or three gold star rating – most entrants receive nothing at all. Those food and drink producers that receive a star rating are entitled to badge their products with the appropriate number of stars and the Great Taste logo, which has become a highly-prized benchmark for success in the speciality food industry.
Products are rated on taste alone and the panel of judges includes top chefs and restaurateurs, as well as people who run delis and farm shops, top food hall and retail buyers, acclaimed cooks, food writers and journalists, jam and cake experts from the WI, cheese makers and farmers.
Drewton's Farm Shop also recently received two accolades in the EBLEX Best Burger Challenge 2014. The All Meat Ranch Burger was awarded silver, and the Rosemary and Mint Lamb Burger was given a bronze award. EBLEX is the organisation for beef and lamb levy payers in England, and its annual awards attract entries from butchers and farm shops all over the country.
Drewton's Farm Shop has also been shortlisted in the 'Taste of Yorkshire' category in Welcome to Yorkshire's 2014 White Rose Awards. The winners will be announced on Monday 17 November at an awards ceremony at the Yorkshire Events Centre in Harrogate.

Differential logic is the component of logic whose object is the successful description of variation — for example, the aspects of change, difference, distribution, and diversity — in universes of discourse that are subject to logical description. In formal logic, differential logic treats the principles that govern the use of a differential logical calculus, that is, a formal system with the expressive capacity to describe change and diversity in logical universes of discourse.
A simple example of a differential logical calculus is furnished by a differential propositional calculus. This augments ordinary propositional calculus in the same way that the differential calculus of Leibniz and Newton augments the analytic geometry of Descartes.

Q: changing div according to the list value using jquery I want to change the width and height of a div by selecting the values from the list
<select id="selectSize">
<option selected>Please Select</option>
<option>45x40</option>
<option>50x20</option>
<option>50x30</option>
<option>63x30</option>
<option>75x40</option>
</select>

A: Try my answer:
$(function () {
    $(document).on("change", "#sizeBoxSelect", function () {
        var $this = $('select#sizeBoxSelect option:selected'),
            iWidth = parseInt($this.val().split(",")[0]),
            iHeight = parseInt($this.val().split(",")[1]);

        $("#sizeBox").width(iWidth).height(iHeight);
    });
});

DEMO FIDDLE

A: Try this
$(function(){
    $('#sizeSel').on('change',function(){
        var dim = $(this).val();
        var wh= dim.split("x");
        $('#sizeBox').css({'width':wh[0]+'px','height':wh[1]+'px'});
    });
});

Fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/hFg7d/

A: http://jsfiddle.net/Jdbyk/1/
HTML
<select onchange="Change()" id="sizeSel">
<option selected>Please Select</option>
<option>HP to decide</option>
<option value="45x40">45x40</option>
<option value="50x20">50x20</option>
<option value="50x30">50x30</option>
<option value="63x30">63x30</option>
<option value="75x40">75x40</option>
</select>

JQUERY
function Change()
{
    var boxsize = $('#sizeSel').val();
    var strs = boxsize.split("x");

    $('#sizeBox').width(strs[0]);
    $('#sizeBox').height(strs[1]);
}

A: Here you have an approach with Jquery.
HTML:
<select id="selectBox">
<option selected>Please Select</option>
<option>HP to decide</option>
<option>45x40</option>
<option>50x20</option>
<option>50x30</option>
<option>63x30</option>
<option>75x40</option>
</select>

JAVASCRIPT:
$('#selectBox').change(function() {
    $("option:selected", this).each(function () {
        var value = $(this).val();
        var height = value.split('x')[0];
        var width = value.split('x')[1];
        $('#sizeBox').css("width", width);
        $('#sizeBox').css("height", height);
    });
});

A: you just need to call the change() event on the listbox element and change the length and width of the target element.here is the working example
Fiddle
JS
$('#sizeBox').on('change', function () {
// alert( $(this).html());
var $this = $('Select option:selected');
var length = $this.attr("lt");
var height = $this.attr("ht");
alert(length + ":" + height);
$('#tarDiv').width(height);
$('#tarDiv').height(length);
});

HTML
<select id="sizeBox">
<option selected>Please Select</option>
<option>HP to decide</option>
<option lt="45" ht="40">45x40</option>
<option lt="50" ht="20">50x20</option>
<option lt="50" ht="30">50x30</option>
<option lt="63" ht="30">63x30</option>
<option lt="75" ht="40">75x40</option>

I just saw a film about decay, and decaying film was the medium.
Decasia: The State of Decay is an hour and seven minutes of old film clips that have been deteriorating. They're shown as they are, no attempts made to clean them up. (The Wikipedia article says some computer imagery was used to "create more meaningful abstract imagery." That's the only place I've seen that claim, so believe what you will.) The filmmakers also make it clear that they didn't do anything to speed up the process, either.
The film came out in 2004 (OK, so I'm a little late, so what?) and was directed by Bill Morrison. The films in the film are mostly silent films, some documentary, some travel, some scripted dramas, some perhaps home movies. The opening image is a Sufi whirling dervish, an image the film comes back to again. It's also the least damaged.
Sometimes the damage is severe and all we see for a few seconds are warped, pock-marked, moldy and bubbled emulsion, a crazy abstract pattern that flashes constantly across the screen. During one of the worst of such segments, a single, small lonely face appears in maelstrom, like a drowning man giving up his last gasp. I saw a film long time ago made when someone scattered salt on the negative, exposed it to light, then projecting the result. It doesn't come close to the random frenetic visuals in here.
As interesting as those bits are, it's the documentary type films that are the most compelling; art just cannot imitate all facets of reality. Rescuers bringing out unconscious or dead miners after disaster; miners trying to escape some sort of emergency. A burning house collapsing. A Japanese woman walking through a house. A man walking in a garden. A birth, perhaps risqué for the time. A boxer apparently working out on a punching bag. (Only apparently because half the image is buried under mold. If he is sparring with someone, his partner must be a bloody mess.) Scenes of a big city, with another man cranking his camera on a ledge to the left. True, many of these would be boring without the decay images making the look spooky and other-worldly, but in this context, all have their share of poignancy.
And then there are the ones that make you ask "what the foofraw is going on here?" Without context, we can only guess, and with much of the image buried under decay, that context is even more distant. For instance, we see a group of children and adults standing around a 1920s era vehicle, all waving their arms in a circle, and then they all start jumping up and down. The scene is made more surreal by the damage that distorts the shape of the vehicle. (This happens quite a lot in the film.) A doctor and a nurse giving TLC to a mannequin. A man scraping a tree with some kind of tool. A scene on what looks like a 1950s-era school bus shows us individual shots of a few of the children, who are looking away at first, but then turn toward the camera, faces frowning with … anger?
One image the film returns to several times was apparently shot at a Catholic school or orphanage. The children are paraded through a courtyard and into a building. The girls are wearing sailor-style outfits with white tops and dark skirts, the boys white shirts and dungarees (probably). In every scene, though, there are two nuns nearby, sometimes with backs to camera. They hardly move, resembling two Grim Reapers examining their latest harvest.
Other films leave us hanging. One seems to be answering the question "What happens when you poke an anthill with a stick?" The obvious answer: a bunch of angry ants. But wait—was that a bone they just uncovered? Alas, the film cuts away, we'll never know. A scene of what look like World War I-era biplanes (it's hard to tell) flying in formation is marginally interesting because the damage cuts out any reference points. Then something drops from one; we suddenly realize someone is parachuting from the plane. Then there are others. They take forever to reach ground, but when they do, it looks like they're landing on top of a factory. Are those two over there going to land on a smokestack—aw, dang, once again the cut ends.
And then there's Michael Gordon's music. Dissonant, edgy, repetitive, it complements the image perfectly. In their original state, the films would not show well with this music; but in their deteriorated state, this is the only music that serves. Do I detect influences of Philip Glass here? Well, in the long list of thanks for support in the credits, there's a group called "Qatsi Productions" with glass and Godfrey Reggio listed therein.
Gordon's music reminds me of Glass's score to Koyaanisqatsi, Reggio's 1982 film contrasting the modern world against the natural world. I'm not saying Gordon copied the score wholesale, but there are passages that evoke Glass. Gordon's score stands on its own in creativity and musical themes, but if you're going to be influenced by someone, you could do worse than Glass.
Indeed, Decasia as a whole reminds me of Koyaanisqatsi. The whirling dervish theme reminds me of the rocket launch opening and the rocket exploding and spinning back to Earth at the end. The only sound is the music as the images flash by in both films. I don't know if Morrison had Koyaanisqatsi in mind when he put this thing together, and this form of film certainly wasn't invented by Reggio, but having seen both, the parallels just stick in my brain.
Decasia isn't for everyone. The splotches, distortions, holes and scratches flash by like those 1960s strobe lights . The constant changing shapes and light intensities can be distracting. And the score is, like I said, dissonant with odd sometimes irritating high-pitched sounds. But if you can stand all that, the movie is a compelling watch.
And what's the point? Decay, my friend. When these films were shot, no one gave much thought to preserving them. They are records of the times, but decay carves holes in our history. Being confronted by this decay, seeing these people from another era seemingly desperately going about their business even as decay overwhelms them, reminds us that we, too, are of limited existence.
To the anonymous workers at Foxconn in China who assembled the iPad I wrote this on: Thanks.
I'll never know who you are, of course. Your names, your faces, anything about you except for generalities such as that you're human, likely Chinese by birth and probably overworked. That's the word here in America, at any rate: overworked and prone to suicide.
I hope those are exaggerations, especially that last. Otherwise, the cost of this thing would be pretty high.
We hear you have to work long hours with little time off so Americans can have their nifty toys devices. Yes, the iPad is worth having, let's make that clear. They do connect us to each other – except to the people who assembled them – and do other cool stuff.
I just wish you could enjoy the fruits of your labor. That, too, is a story we've heard here, that you don't know what the devices that you make do. Henry Ford realized he could sell a lot more vehicles if he made them affordable to his own workers. Maybe one day someone will do the same for you.
Not that I'm all that wealthy. I could afford this only because Wal-mart – another giant American company Chinese workers no doubt are familiar with – started a holiday layaway program that included iPads. That's how I eventually got to clutch one in my hot little hand.
I've seen photos of the long lines of white-clad Foxconn workers in the factories. I sometimes wonder about you, the people who actually touched the parts of my iPad. How many of you assembled mine? Which of you were male, which were female? How old were you? How long had you been working when this particular iPad came along? Where were you from, a rural area or a big city? How many brothers and sisters do you have? Do you have dreams, aspirations beyond the factory? You see, I don't know a thing you who assembled my iPad.
Would I be pondering these things if I hadn't seen the articles in American media about the supposed problems at the factory? After all, I've never really pondered who built my car. Americans, likely, it's an American car. I can relate a bit to them because we have some values in common. The stories about Chinese tech workers, though, describe an experience few American workers have dealt in at least a generation or more.
Stories about how workers were woken in the middle of the night to re-do iPhone faces because Steve Jobs wanted glass, not plastic. Stories that workers have jumped off buildings (so the factory managers installed nets). Stories that workers can hardly make a living on their wages (though recent stories say everyone got a pay raise). Stories about consumer pressure that forced Apple to join a fair-labor organization to inspect the factories (though the reports are mixed on whether what the inspectors saw was real or whether they were being flimflammed).
So all of a sudden I'm a worker-right champion? If I were truly that, I wouldn't have bought the thing. I did go into this purchase fully aware of these controversies because I felt it was necessary to understand costs other than money. Yes, I had to have it, but I see it as a tool. The automobile is a tool; eventually conditions improved for those workers. I hope that eventually conditions will improve the same way for the Chinese workers.
In a perfect world, Americans would be assembling the products designed by an American corporation. In a perfect world, workers everywhere would be paid a decent wage without making the cost of the products prohibitive. Perhaps one day this will happen, possibly when corporations run out of low-wage countries to move their factories to.
That's a long way off, though. In the real world, Apple is about to unveil the iPad3. The workers who assembled my iPad, if they're still at the factory, likely have been working hard to produce those new toys devices for a salivating American public. I hope the stories about pay raises are true. I hope public pressure has forced at least a little improvement in conditions.
So, thanks again Foxconn workers, for your labor. I will try to remember where my iPad came from each time I use it.

It tolls for thee: £5m needed to save Britain's last major bell foundry
Campaigners hope to save an ancient industry from disappearance
@GarethRubin
Sat 31 Aug 2019 16.39 EDT First published on Sat 31 Aug 2019 08.00 EDT

It is said that, every day, 20 million people in Britain hear the chimes of a bell cast at Taylor's of Loughborough. The foundry is Britain's last still casting full sets of church bells and has produced them for St Paul's Cathedral and Yale University among others. You can even hear one tolling on the AC/DC track Hells Bells.
Now, however, the foundry is desperately seeking £4.7m for restorations to its Grade II listed premises just to keep going, the latest challenge to an ancient industry that is struggling to survive.
The Leicestershire site's supporters are looking anxiously at Whitechapel bell foundry in London, which is facing permanent closure. It ceased operations in 2017 but campaigners hope it will yet be reopened.
Whitechapel, which had operated in the East End since 1570, was Britain's oldest manufacturing business; it cast Big Ben and America's Liberty Bell. To the consternation of locals, artists and historians, its new American owners have applied to turn it into a boutique hotel.
"Bells feature in people's daily lives even when they don't notice it – just walking along the road and a clock chimes," said Hannah Wilby, chair of Loughborough Bellfoundry Trust. "If both these foundries disappear it would be a very sad loss for our national heritage."
Wilby is hopeful that a solution can be found to keep open the foundry, which is operated by Taylor Bells. It has been awarded £300,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund to work up a detailed proposal for a grant of £3.7m, which would be matched by £1m the trust raises itself. "We're super-optimistic we will raise the money in the end. It's something we all care so much about. Most of the trustees are bell ringers – I ring at Southwark Cathedral – so we have skin in the game to keep the foundry going," she said.
Those fighting to see off the developers and reopen the Whitechapel foundry also believe they will succeed, pinning their hopes on a recent groundswell of support from local people that they hope will swing the council's decision their way. Support has also come from the East London Mosque, which stands very close to the foundry and has significant local influence. The showdown will come when Tower Hamlets council meets on 19 September to consider the planning application.
Among those backing the campaign to reopen the foundry is Dan Cruickshank, the art historian known to millions for his BBC programmes on architectural history. He told the Observer: "There is no better use for an old bell foundry than to be a bell foundry. There is a demand for bells and there is a viable continuation of industrial use on that site. It's that or another boutique hotel, and the poor East End has lost so much of its authenticity and employment."

Cruickshank visited the foundry for a programme he was presenting about the Palace of Westminster, and he went to see where Big Ben was cast. "I live nearby, in Spitalfields, and I was used to the story of loss and abandonment and death of spirit in the area," he said. "But this was an amazing experience – like a dream coming true. I remember thinking, 'Thank God, there is somewhere still working and doing what it was meant to do.' So I was heartbroken [when it ceased production], because I had thought it was safe." He said he was hopeful that the planning process would frustrate the developer's plans, and the foundry could be saved.
Also behind the campaign are the director of the Victoria and Albert Museum, Tristram Hunt, and the metal sculptor Antony Gormley, who used to look into the foundry yard and watch the casting process as he walked through the East End.
The UK Historic Building Preservation Trust also hopes planning permission for the developer's scheme will be refused, and its offer to buy the foundry and start casting bells there again will now succeed.
Stephen Clarke, a trustee, said: "This is Britain's oldest continuous business – it's part of the locality's DNA – and we want to put in new technology so we can continue and regenerate that business. We have a lot of potential commissions we can put through that foundry, many of them coming from overseas and China in particular. "Whitechapel bells are a global brand and they should be kept as a global brand. You walk in and you smell the dust and you are surrounded by the most fantastic atmosphere. Yes, it's been shut for two years now, but my goodness me! That building is crying out to be opened up and the furnaces turned back on."

Political football? Bachmann meets Iowans at ISU/Iowa tailgate

Covering Michele Bachmann
More posts by Jason Noble

Republican Presidential candidate Rep. Michele Bachmann greets fans while tailgating before the Iowa-Iowa State game Saturday in Ames. (Christopher Gannon/The Des Moines Register)
Ames, Ia. – Presidential hopeful Michele Bachmann proudly wore Hawkeye black-and-gold on Saturday. And Cyclone cardinal-and-gold, too.
Bachmann, a Minnesota congresswoman and frontrunner in the race for next year's Iowa Caucuses, joined college football revelers supporting both teams in the boisterous and boozy tailgating lots outside Jack Trice Stadium here for a morning of up-close campaigning.
CLICK FOR PHOTOS of Bachmann at the Iowa-Iowa State tailgate
The visit to Ames — site of last month's Iowa Straw Poll — was a return not only to the place that catapulted her near the front of Iowa's presidential pack, but also to the glad-handing, baby-kissing style of politics that ignited her campaign this summer.
"We've been in Iowa 70 days and what we've been known for is our time with people and talking with people," Bachmann said Saturday. "That's why we're here today with people again.
"And we're here for football," she added. "We love Iowa."

Critics have charged that Bachmann withdrew too far into a campaign bubble following her straw-poll win, causing her poll numbers to slip and allowing campaign newcomer Texas Gov. Rick Perry to leech away excitement and support.
Friends and supporters last week encouraged her to dive back into the campaign "mosh pit" to reengage with Iowans.
The scene Saturday, on a perfect fall morning amidst tens of thousands of Iowans and a virtual city of tents and RVs, was more orderly than a mosh pit, but no less personal.
Music blared, beer flowed and barbeque smoke billowed through the air.
Bachmann appeared just after 9 a.m., decked out in a custom-made patchwork football jersey of Cyclone and Hawkeye colors and logos with her name sewn into the back.
"This is my I-love-Iowa shirt today," Bachmann told reporters later. "So we're here rooting for both teams."
The candidate received no formal introduction and delivered no formal remarks, but immediately engaged with a crowd that encircled her as soon as she appeared. In a loop through the parking lot outside the east gate of the stadium, Bachmann shook hands, exchanged hugs, posed for photos and even flipped a few burgers.
She politely ignored repeated offers for beer.
At one point in her circuit through the lots, Bachmann stopped at a bean-bag toss game set up in the wide aisle between two lines of RVs. She took two tosses from about 10 yards off, dropping the second into the hole like a seasoned tailgater.
That won her some applause.
The conversation along the way, when there was any, was less political than neighborly.
Lori Edler, an Iowa State fan from Des Moines, complimented Bachmann on her straw poll speech, but mostly chatted about a visit to Kansas, where Edler has family and Bachmann's brother is a TV weatherman.
"I think it's awesome," Edler said of Bachmann's visit. "This is what I like to
see. This is what you want; to get up and close and personal to the candidates."
But Edler and many who encountered the candidate Saturday weren't ready to say she would get their votes at caucustime.
"I'm unsure of who I'm supporting at this point," said Sara Danielson of Des Moines. "I do like her, though. I like her fight, the demeanor she has right now."
Reggie Erwin, an Iowa fan from Ankeny, said he liked Bachmann and, particularly, her views on reforming Medicare and Social Security. But in a brief exchage with the candidate, Erwin didn't want to talk policy. "We just wanted to get a picture with her," he said.
Josh Davis, of Altoona, said he happened upon Bachmann unexpectedly, but "just had to see her" when he realized she was a presidential
candidate. He said he appreciated her support for the state of Iowa, but was skeptical about her have-it-both-ways jersey.
"She kind of copped out with the Iowa State-Iowa jersey," said Davis, a former ISU student. "You know what I mean? … Of course, you're going to get both fans on your side, or you might get both fans to hate you."
Bachmann started and finished her tailgate appearance at the tent of Republican state senator and former ISU football player Jack Whitver, and was trailed throughout the morning by three other supportive Republican senators.
Coming out to the tailgate was a perfect move, Whitver said, one played to her talent for captivating voters and making personal connections.
"What she needed to do was come out and break away from all the handlers," he said.
The breakout didn't last long. Bachmann mingled among the crowd for about an hour, and pulled away from the lots well before the 11 a.m. kickoff, bound for the airport and away from Iowa.
By skipping out early, she missed out on a great game —an overtime thriller that Iowa State won 44-41.

Lyon docked one point after crowd trouble in Marseille game
The game, which will be replayed behind closed doors, was called off after Marseille's Dimitri Payet was hit by a bottle thrown from the stands of Lyon's Groupama Stadium.

Olympique Lyonnais has been docked one point after it's Ligue 1 home game against Olympique de Marseille was abandoned amid crowd trouble last month, the French League (LFP) said on Wednesday.
Lyon, whose president Jean-Michel Aulas criticised the referee's decision to end the Nov. 21 game, remain 12th in the standings, now with 22 points from 16 matches.
RELATED: Suspended sentence for Lyon fan who struck Payet with bottle
Ligue 1 has been marred by fan violence this season.
Nice was docked two points, one of them suspended, after serious incidents during their game in August against Marseille, when visiting players clashed with home fans who pelted them with missiles and stormed on to the pitch.
The northern derby between RC Lens and Lille was hit by crowd problems in September, with the start of the second half delayed after rival fans threw objects at each other before people ran on to the pitch, prompting riot police and stewards to intervene.
There has also been crowd trouble in Montpellier, Angers, Marseille and St Etienne.

The sole basis of our belief is the Bible, composed of the 66 books of the Old and New Testament. We believe that Scripture in its entirety originated with God and that it was written for our instruction and learning. The Bible speaks with the authority of God and at the same time reflects the backgrounds, styles, and vocabularies of the inspired writers. We believe the Bible is the unique, full, and final authority on all matters of faith and practice, and there are no other writings similarly inspired by God.
We believe that there is one true, holy God. We believe that God is eternal, that he is all-loving, all-knowing, and all-powerful. The bible teaches that God exists in three persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - each of Whom possesses equally all the attributes and qualities of deity. In the beginning God created the world and everything in it. He continues to sustain His creation today by his sovereign power.
Jesus Christ is referred to in the bible as the Son of God. He was and is 100% God in every way. By a miraculous conception and virgin birth he became a man and walked on earth for about 33 years. He lived a life of perfect obedience to God the Father and voluntarily sacrificed his life for the sins of all mankind by dying on the cross as our substitute. After three days in the grave, God raised him from the dead. He later ascended into heaven, and is now reunited with the Father. At the end of time, He will come again to bring judgment to those who continue to rebel against God, and eternal life to those who have trusted in Him.
From the beginning, God desired a relationship with his creation. In the beginning that was possible for Adam & Eve. But when they rebelled and chose to go their own way, they were alienated from God and began to suffer the consequences of that decision. This is often referred to as "the fall of man" - because man fell out of that perfect relationship with God. This took place at the very beginning of human history, and all people since have suffered the same consequences for sin. Since it was man who broke the relationship, the only way it can be restored is for God to offer forgiveness. God offers forgiveness through the sacrifice of his Son, Jesus Christ. We accept this offer by faith, repentance, confession, and obedience.
Verbally - they acknowledged their need for a savior and their belief that Jesus was the way.
Baptism - they were immediately baptized. Baptism was a decision and choice made by believers. Following that practice, we do not baptize infants. Only adults and children who are old enough to make this decision for themselves are baptized. Baptism in the bible was done by immersion - completely covering a person in water.
A genuine saving relationship with Jesus Christ will be seen in the life of a believer by holiness and obedience. The Bible teaches that at the point of salvation, God sends the Holy Spirit to live within all believers and guide them in knowing and understanding the will of God. The Holy Spirit empowers every believer with gifts for encouraging and building up the church. The Bible also teaches that the evidence of the Spirit working in a believer will be a wonderful mix of love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness and self control.
Death seals the eternal destiny of each person. For all mankind, there will be a resurrection of the body, and a judgment day that will determine the fate of each individual. The Bible teaches that each individual will be judged based on their own actions. Unbelievers - those who have rejected God in this life - will be separated from God forever. Believers will be received into the eternal presence of God and will be rewarded for their faith and obedience.
The church is the fellowship and family of believers. In the Bible, the church is called the body of Christ. Believers become members of His body and are added to the church by God himself. The bible teaches that believers should gather together for encouragement and fellowship, and to devote themselves to worship, prayer, the teaching of the Word, and Communion. Wherever God's people meet regularly in obedience to this command, there is the local expression of the church. Each church is overseen by elders and other supportive leadership. It's members work together in love and unity with the purpose of glorifying Christ in the world.
Scripture is the final authority in all matters of faith and practice. Through the centuries, traditions have developed that give each church a distinctive flavor, but the ultimate authority in what should and should not be done rests with God.

PUTNEY—Putney Family Services, Putney Central School, and the Putney Co-op sponsored two teams that participated in the fifth annual Jr. Iron Chef competition on March 24 in Burlington.
Jr. Iron Chef is a statewide competition that gives students an opportunity to gain hands-on experience preparing and cooking nutritious, farm-fresh foods. The competition highlights local agriculture and encourages students to make healthy eating choices and understand more about nutrition, farm-fresh foods, the culinary arts, and school food systems. The teams selected and practiced their recipes before the competition.
Team Will of the Whisk whipped together their presentation of "Smackin' Cheese." This dish highlighted five seasonal Vermont ingredients that included cheddar cheese, parsnips, carrots, butternut squash, and tomatoes. The team was coached by Kerri Harlow. Team members include Sean Donovan, Breanna Sheehan, Susanna Strothman, and Chris Renouf.
The second team, Narwhal Chefs, was coached by Kristina Israel. The team members are Adam Hinckley, Piper Field, Audrey Maples, Izabel Estrin, and Kira Boucher. Their recipe was "Three-Way Tofu Chili," and based on a Cincinnati regional favorite. This is a chili served over spaghetti and topped with cheddar cheese. Their five local ingredients included root vegetables such as parsnips, celeriac, and carrots.

Q: Google Chrome segmentation fault within a minute Today I installed Google Chrome 55 (i.e. the latest stable version) on 64-bit SL7.0 using a 64-bit RPM. The problem is that google chrome starts fine (except for an SELinux-related issue which I fixed), but it closes without warning after about a minute. No indication of a crash is shown except for "Google Chrome crashed. Would you like to restore your tabs?" the next time I start it (only to happen again, after a minute), and the following output from the terminal when I start chrome there:
$ google-chrome

...

Failed to get crash dump id.

Reinstalling chrome did not fix the problem. Nether did deleting my profile folder so chrome can use the defaults.

In particular, Package 'google-chrome-stable' isn't signed with proper key: Is this a problem? I downloaded it from google's official site. What should I do now?

A: I am unable to debug the problem with gdb (bt only gives me hexadecimal numbers, not function names).
Since, for the severity of this bug, everyone using the current version should have been affected (Quite a number of people have this bug too, according to the bug tracker). Seeing that a few other people have this problem (on chrome AND chromium), I assume this is a Chromium bug and/or something on the computer is causing the problem.
I'm going to file the bug on the Chromium bug tracker, I bet they're going to fix it. :]
Update: This is the bug report I posted.
Update #2: It seems like this is a GNOME-specific issue, and it works fine on KDE Plasma, so that's what I'll be using from now on.

A: My suggestion : download vivaldi from vivaldi.com that worked smoothly.Vivaldi was clone of google-chrome.

Here is the #NVprepsfb list of Southern Nevada's top five wide receiver/pass catchers.
Bishop Gorman's Jalen Nailor comes in at No. 2 on our #NVprepsfb list of Southern Nevada's top wide receivers/pass catchers.
This resulted in the #NVprepsfb wide receiver/pass catcher rankings. The list is based off high school productivity and not college or professional potential. Stay tuned for our defensive player list next week.
Nailor, a consensus three-star recruit, has scholarship offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Michigan State, UNLV, UNR, Utah, Washington State and Wisconsin among others.
Nailor led a potent Gaels offense with 52 receptions, 929 yards and 14 touchdowns, and even rushed for a touchdown in helping Bishop Gorman go 15-0, win a league, region, state and national championship. Nailor will be catching passes this season from fellow 2016 wide receiver Dorian Thompson-Robinson, who is shifting to quarterback.
— "Sometimes, when you're on Gorman, you get lost in the shuffle. That was kind of the case last year, but this will be his year to step up and be the guy," one Sunrise Region football coach said.
— "The way he runs his routes and he comes off his angles, and speed steps and gets out of his breaks makes up for the speed, or lake thereof, that he would get in the 40, just running straight ahead," one Sunset Region football coach said.
Kothe, a three-star recruit on Scout.com, committed to San Diego State on July 5. He chose the Aztecs over scholarship offers from Air Force, Colorado, UNLV and others.
Kothe finished with 55 receptions, 1,053 yards and 10 touchdowns for the Crusaders last season. In a Class 4A Sunset Region second-round playoff game against Bishop Gorman, he caught five passes for 120 yards facing a secondary that featured seniors Bubba Bolden (Southern California), Greg Francis (UNLV) and Alex Perry (Arizona State). Kothe will get another year with quarterback Sagan Gronauer, who came in at No. 5 on the Nevada Preps list of top returning quarterbacks, and will look to build on the team's 6-5 record and first-round playoff victory last season.
Mitchell, a consensus three-star recruit, committed to Arizona on April 28. He chose the Wildcats over scholarship offers from Hawaii and UNLV.
Mitchell played all over the field for Desert Oasis during the 2016-17 season, racking up 110 passing yards, 283 rushing yards and 262 receiving yards. He scored four of the Diamondbacks' 12 touchdowns on the season. Mitchell, who is working on becoming eligible after moving across town, will benefit from joining Desert Pines — last year's Class 3A state champion — and focusing solely on the wide receiver position.
— "He's a kid you're not going to get a very good read on because he played at (Desert Oasis) last year," one Sunrise Region fooball coach said.
Powell has one scholarship offer from Hawaii.
In his first year with the Patriots, Powell caught 41 passes for 538 yards and seven touchdowns behind all-state receivers Darion Acohido and Ethan Dedeaux. He excelled as a sophomore at Green Valley in 2015, leading the team in receptions (46), receiving yards (593) and touchdowns (8). Look for him to be a top target for Liberty quarterback Kenyon Oblad in 2017.

Children spend a significant amount of time engaged with media (Rideout et al., 2010; Roberts, et al., 2005; Strasburger, 2004). The impact of media exposure on children's development and learning has generated ongoing debate and research (Wartella & Robb, 2011). However, much of the research has focused on the negative implications of media use, resulting in a limited knowledge base on how media can be used to promote positive development. Children become media consumers at a very early age (Wartella & Robb, 2007) and behaviors that reflect a lack of character are often established early in life. Thus, more needs to be learned about the bases, development, and range of outcomes related to children's media use, including how media can be used to support children's social and emotional learning and development. We propose to design and evaluate the implementation of an intervention targeting young children that uses interactive technologies and cross-age peer mentoring to promote character and prosocial behaviors. The intervention pairs younger and older students to make collaborative decisions within interactive graphic novels based on stories from the popular ARTHUR television program. This innovative approach will provide children with opportunities to practice specific habits of mind by virtually taking on different roles (Templeton, 1998). This method of engaging with content and concepts has the potential to strengthen positive behaviors, but has not yet been studied within character education programs targeted at young children. We will conduct a pilot evaluation to assess the most effective manner to implement the intervention within classroom settings and ultimately test the revised intervention's effect on children's character development and prosocial behaviors. Outputs will include refereed journal articles, an implementation plan with an evaluated novel and training materials, evidence-based measures, and a proposal to take the intervention to scale.

Q: Shorten call to Rails.application.secrets for readability I know this is a bit of a nitpick, but this has been staring me in the face all day as I'm trying to move over to using the new[ish] config/secrets.yml file. It's just making my code ugly. I'm aware that moving to something less standard could be a problem if it comes to someone trying to understand my project... but this project is pretty private and i'm the only one working on it.
It seems that it's an instance of ActiveSupport::OrderedOptions so I can't seem to alias it.
How could I alias something like SECRET to Rails.application.secrets so that I could call SECRET.some_key to get a return value?
I'm looking for a solution that:

*

*Has minimal performance impacts

*Has minimal to zero security impacts

Thanks a zillion!

A: Why not just assign Rails.application.secrets to SECRET or @secret somewhere?
SECRET = Rails.application.secrets

works for me in the console; I can then access SECRET.secret_key_base etc.

A: Another way if you don't like the aesthetics of a SECRET constant:
module Secret
  def self.for
    Rails.application.secrets
  end
end

Will shorten
Rails.application.secrets.my_value

to:
Secret.for.my_value

Q: can nginx set variable from file? server {
    set $serverNames /www/test.txt;
    server_name $serverNames;
    ...

I want to know if I can read the content from the text and assign it to the variable.I tried the above code and it didn't work.

A: I don't think you can "read" files into variables by default.
There are third party modules which may read a value of a location
(which itself could refer to files) into a variable, for example nginx-eval-module.
But for your use case I think is overkill (and you will depend on a third party module).
What NGINX can do is include code snippets in your configuration.
For example, you can do:
# nginx configuration
server {
    include /www/test.txt
    ...
}

# /www/test.txt
server_name
    example.com
    example.net
    ...
;

and so on.
If test.txt is an automatically generated file, it should be pretty easy to
modify the generation script to include server_name at the beginning and ; at the end.
If it's modified manually, well then it's a no brainer.

Q: Unhandled exceptions in BackgroundWorker I have a small WinForms app that utilizes a BackgroundWorker object to perform a long-running operation.
The background operation throws occasional exceptions, typically when somebody has a file open that is being recreated.
Regardless of whether the code is run from the IDE or not .NET pops up an error dialog informing the user that an Unhandled exception has occurred.  Compiling the code using the Release configuration doesn't change this either.
According to MSDN:

If the operation raises an exception that your code does not handle, the BackgroundWorker catches the exception and passes it into the RunWorkerCompleted event handler, where it is exposed as the Error property of System.ComponentModel..::.RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs. If you are running under the Visual Studio debugger, the debugger will break at the point in the DoWork event handler where the unhandled exception was raised.

I expect these exceptions to be thrown on occasion and would like to handle them in the RunWorkerCompleted event rather than in DoWork.  My code works properly and the error is handled correctly within the RunWorkerCompleted event but I can't for the life of me figure out how to stop the .NET error dialog complaining about the "Unhandled exception" from occurring.
Isn't the BackgroundWorker supposed to catch that error automagically?  Isn't that what the MSDN documentation states?  What do I need to do to inform .NET that this error is being handled while still allowing the exception to propage into the Error property of RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs?

A: I would add to the MSDN text:

If the operation raises an exception that your code does not handle, the BackgroundWorker catches the exception and passes it into the RunWorkerCompleted event handler, where it is exposed as the Error property of System.ComponentModel..::.RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs. If you are running under the Visual Studio debugger, the debugger will break at the point in the DoWork event handler where the unhandled exception was raised.

... AND the debugger will report the exception as "~Exception was unhandled by user code"
Solution: Don't run under the debugger and it works as expected: Exception caught in e.Error.

A: [Edit]
Judah has a great point. My example pointed out the specifics of handling the error but my code would actually cause another exception if an exception was never hit in the DoWork method. This example is OK due to the fact that we are specifically showing the error handling capabilities of the BackgroundWorker. However if you are not checking the error parameter against null then this could be your issue.
[/Edit]
I don't see the same results. Can you post a little code? Here is my code.
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    BackgroundWorker worker = new BackgroundWorker();
    worker.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(worker_DoWork);
    worker.RunWorkerCompleted += new RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler(worker_RunWorkerCompleted);
    worker.RunWorkerAsync();
}

void worker_RunWorkerCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    // Will cause another exception if an exception didn't occur.
    // We should be checking to see if e.Error is not "null".
    textBox1.Text = "Error? " + e.Error;
}

void worker_DoWork(object sender, DoWorkEventArgs e)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
        if (i < 5)
        {
            Thread.Sleep(100);
        }
        else
        {
            throw new Exception("BOOM");
        }
    }
}

Program Output:

Error? System.Exception: BOOM    at

An interesting article that looks similar to your question. It has a section on handling exceptions.
http://www.developerdotstar.com/community/node/671

A: This is an old question, but I found it while Googling the same symptoms.  Posting this in case someone else finds it for the same reason.
Judah's answer is right, but it isn't the only reason the "unhandled exception in user code" dialog can appear.  If an exception is thrown from inside a constructor on the background thread then that exception will cause the dialog immediately, and won't be passed to the RunWorkerCompleted event.  If you move the offending code outside of any constructors (to any other method) it works as expected.

A: What you're describing is not the defined behavior of BackgroundWorker. You're doing something wrong, I suspect.
Here's a little sample that proves BackgroundWorker eats exceptions in DoWork, and makes them available to you in RunWorkerCompleted:
var worker = new BackgroundWorker();
worker.DoWork += (sender, e) =>
    {
        throw new InvalidOperationException("oh shiznit!");
    };
worker.RunWorkerCompleted += (sender, e) =>
    {
        if(e.Error != null)
        {
            MessageBox.Show("There was an error! " + e.Error.ToString());
        }
    };
worker.RunWorkerAsync();

My psychic debugging skills are revealing your problem to me: You are accessing e.Result in your RunWorkerCompleted handler -- if there's an e.Error, you must handle it without accessing e.Result. For example, the following code is bad, bad, bad, and will throw an exception at runtime:
var worker = new BackgroundWorker();
worker.DoWork += (sender, e) =>
    {
        throw new InvalidOperationException("oh shiznit!");
    };
worker.RunWorkerCompleted += (sender, e) =>
    {
        // OH NOOOOOOOES! Runtime exception, you can't access e.Result if there's an
        // error. You can check for errors using e.Error.
        var result = e.Result;
    };
worker.RunWorkerAsync();

Here's a proper implementation of the RunWorkerCompleted event handler:
private void RunWorkerCompletedHandler(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Error == null)
    {
       DoSomethingWith(e.Result); // Access e.Result only if no error occurred.
    }
}

VOILA, you won't receive runtime exceptions.

A: I had the same problem and i was already applying the Judah answer before i found this topic after some googling.
Well, imo the Judah answer is partially correct. I found a better answer here
The debugger is making the work well, if you run the application in "real-world conditions", the RunWorkerCompleted deals with the exception as expected and the application behavior is also the expected.
I hope this answer helps.

Victor Victorious!
6/19/2004 – Will someone please tell Victor Korchnoi to start acting his age? We have 12-year-old Grandmasters running around and 73-year-old Korchnoi is still winning strong GM tournaments. Did we say winning? We meant to say dominating! He scored six wins and won the 2nd György Marx Memorial in Hungary by a full point. Report and games.
Korchnoi still teaching young and old
Last year the György Marx Memorial event was a rapid chess match won convincingly by Boris Gelfand over Judit Polgar. This year the organizers switched to classical chess and invited an interesting mix of Hungarian talent and veterans, and one man who is both: living legend Lajos Portisch. The tourney is held in the honor of a Hungarian physicist in the town of Paks.
The youngest veteran was Alexander Beliavsky, supposedly on the downhill side at 50. He was no doubt made to feel young again with 67-year-old Portisch and 73-year-old Victor Korchnoi in the field. Youngsters Berkes and Acs were joined by Romanian international Nevednichy. When it was all over the veterans had outscored the youngsters 16.5-13.5.
But this wasn't a team event and the clear winner was Victor the Terrible. (K was switched for C in his recently published game collections and upcoming autobiography, so we'll do the same. But we insist "Viktor" is cooler.) He started out with six out of seven in the double round-robin to run away from the field. He was slowed down by a loss to Beliavsky, but he bounced right back with another win and drew against his fellow winter lion Portisch in the final round to finish a full point ahead of the 18-year-old Berkes.
II György Marx Chess Memorial – June 5-15 – Category 14 (2587 avg.)
View all games online and download PGN
This fantastic result follows a down year for Korchnoi that led to the sort of conjecture about his age that he's been listening to since he first played for the world championship against Karpov in 1978. Even then he was considered the grizzled veteran by many, likely to tire against the young Karpov. Here we are, 26 years later, and Korchnoi is still playing great chess and winning tournaments. His 2784 performance in Paks wasn't a great performance for a 73-year-old, it was a great performance period.
Most of Korchnoi's wins were the technical grinds you might expect. His energy at the board are unabated. Several times Korchnoi rejected repetitions to go on to outplay his opponents with relentless accuracy. If you are looking for a master class in technique and endgames, give all of Korchnoi's wins a careful look. Of course, to win a strong event you have to have a little luck. When Beliavsky rejected a repetition in the third round he lost a piece in a very curious way.
Beliavsky – Korchnoi after 37...Qd1+
Instead of repeating the position with 38.Qf1 Beliavsky played for the loss with 38.Kh2?? This left his knight in a very embarrassing position after 38...Qd3.
A stunned Beliavsky played 39.Qa8+ Kh7 and resigned. The knight is completely dominated and the queen has no way to protect it. An unusual picture of domination.
Acs – Portisch after 32.Rd2
Acs has sacrificed a rook to get at the black king. The sac was triumphant when Portisch played 32...Rf8 33.Rh2+ Kg6 34.f5+ 1-0. It's mate after 34...Rxf5 35.Rh6+ gxh6 36.Qg8#.
Fritzy finds the only way to survive in the diagram. 32...Bg5!! prepares to cover the h-file. The best White has is a perpetual check after 33.Rh2+ Bh6 34.Rxh6+ gxh6 35.Qf7+.

The exhibition Eye of the Cyclone explores Taiwan's vibrant and diverse contemporary art scene, echoing the daily concerns of its population, as well as the interactions between the island and its environment. This exhibition presents ordinary, everyday life where celebrations and disaster coexist, and lingers on the interactions between the individual and the collective in our globalised world. How should we react to environmental change, or to being tossed about by surrounding political storms? How are we to form an opinion in a whirlwind of information that mixes fact and fiction?
Somewhere between tradition and anticipation, these 15 works by contemporary artists paint a cultural portrait of Taiwan while exploring the frontiers of contemporary imagination.

Louisiana Officer Fatally Shot While Responding To Disturbance
Sandy MaloneJuly 10, 2021
Doyline, LA – A Webster Parish sheriff's deputy, who was working part-time as a Doyline police officer, was fatally shot while responding to a disturbance call on Friday evening.
The deputy was working the capacity of a Doyline police officer when he was killed, KTBS reported.
The incident began at about 6 p.m. on July 9 when law enforcement officers responded to a call about a disturbance in the 400-block of Green Tree Road.
When the officers – including two Webster Parish sheriff's deputies – arrived on the scene, they were greeted by gunfire, KTBS reported.
Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker said that Webster Parish Sheriff's Deputy and Doyline Police Patrol Officer William "Billy" Earl Collins Jr. was first to the arrive and the scene.
Deputy Collins was shot in the head, KTBS reported.
The other two deputies with him were not wounded.
Louisiana State Police Troop G Spokesman Jonathan Odom said the gunman barricaded himself inside a mobile home after he shot Deputy Collins and engaged in a standoff with law enforcement for more than four hours, KTBS reported.
More than 200 law enforcement officers from agencies all over the area, including other parishes, the state responded to the scene to assist, the Minden Press-Herald reported.
Shortly before 11 p.m., gunshots were heard from inside the mobile home and then an ambulance transported the suspect from the scene to a waiting helicopter.
"It's a very sad event for me to be able to come up here and speak to y'all, but I've got to give somebody justice," Sheriff Parker told reporters at the scene. "I'm very sad to say tonight, around 7:43 p.m., we lost a good man. The family lost a good husband, a good father, a good Webster Parish deputy, and a good patrol officer for the City of Doyline, that loved and served his citizens well."
"It just breaks my heart, because every time we put on this uniform, and we go out and try to serve the public, this could happen to any one of us," the sheriff said.
He said that Deputy Collins had served the Webster Parish Sheriff's Office for 10 years, the Minden Press-Herald reported.
"My heart goes out to the family, my main focus over the next few days, next few weeks, months, is going to support them, and give them all that I can to help make this better and give them some closure," Sheriff Parker said.
The sheriff refused to name the suspect at the press conference, the Minden Press-Herald reported.
"We have the suspect in custody, but the only name I'm going to mention tonight is Deputy, Doyline Police Officer, William Earl Collins Jr., also known as Billy," he insisted. "He will be truly missed, and I cannot say how hard it is for me to say that for us tonight."
Sheriff Parker thanked the other first responders who had rushed to their aid after the officer was shot, the Minden-Press-Herald reported.
"I cannot leave here tonight without thanking all of the resources, all of the Sheriff's from other parishes, all of the patrol city officers coming and responding, EMS, fire. It's just overwhelming. If I tried to start naming everybody, I'd leave somebody out. Everybody knows who they are, and I cannot imagine I could do this without them," the sheriff said.

Doyline Mayor Steven Bridwell said "Billy was loved in the community," the Minden Press-Herald reported.
"I've lived in this quiet community just about all my life, and this has got to be the most tragic day that I've experienced here, and I never thought I'd see this here, in our community," Bridwell said.
He asked the community to keep Deputy Collins' family in their prayers, the Minden Press-Herald reported.

and you have 4 unknowns with 4 constraints (forget about the maximum constraints on a,b,c and d for a moment):
a+b=sab
a+c=sac
c+d=scd
b+d=sbd
the 4 constraints are not independent (otherwise you would have only one possible solution!), and a
bit of algebra shows that the matrix of this linear system has rank 3. so you have one degree of
freedom to play with. pick a for example, and then vary a from 0 to its maximum value. For each value
of a then compute b, c and d using the row and column sum constraints, and check that they satisy the
positivity and maximum constraints.
The R code for your example is as follows:
sab <- 59
scd <- 64
sac <- 31
sbd <- sab + scd - sac ### this is always true

amax <-  20
bmax <- 40
cmax <- 12
dmax <- 70

### let us vary a, our only degree of freedom
for (a in 0:amax){
    ### let us compute b, c and d by satisfying row and column sum constraints
    b <- sab - a
    c <- sac - a
    d <-  sbd - b
    ### let us check inequality constraints
    if (b <= bmax && b>= 0 && c <= cmax && c >= 0 && d <= dmax && d >= 0){
        cat("\nSolution:\n")
        print(m <- rbind(c(a,b),c(c,d)))
        cat("\nrowSums:", rowSums(m))
        cat("\ncolsums:", colSums(m))
        cat("\n---------------\n")
        if (! identical(rowSums(m), c(sab,scd)))
            stop("\nrow sum is not right!\n")
        if (! identical(colSums(m), c(sac,sbd)))
            stop("\ncolumns sum is not right!\n")
    }
}
