It was originally, but erroneously, believed that normal cells also had the potential to divide and function indefinitely in culture, and so it was thought that aging could not be the result of events that occurred within normal cells. Instead, aging was thought to be the result of extracellular events such as radiation or of changes in the extracellular molecules that cement cells to each other.
In 1960, however, it was discovered that no culture conditions exist that will permit normal human cells to divide indefinitely. Rather, cells were found to have a built-in counting mechanism, called the Hayflick Limit, that limits their capacity to replicate. For example, human fibroblast cell populations, found in virtually all tissues, will double only about 50 times in culture when derived from fetal tissue. Fibroblast populations from older adults double fewer times, the exact number of doublings depending upon the age of the donor. Leonard Hayflick and P. S. Moorhead also suggested that only abnormal or cancer cells divide indefinitely. They theorized that the limited capacity for normal cells to divide is an expression of aging and that it determines the longevity of the organism.
In support of this theory, it was found that frozen normal fetal cells "remember" the doubling level at which they were frozen and, after thawing, will undergo additional doublings until the total of fifty is reached. These facts suggested to Hayflick that a replication-counting mechanism existed. Hayflick and coresearcher Woodring Wright later found that this mechanism was located in the nucleus of the cell.

Donald Trump tells Angela Merkel to pay 'vast sums' owed to NATO

PUBLISHED: March 19, 2017 at 12:00 a.m. | UPDATED: November 17, 2018 at 12:00 a.m.
President Trump lashed out at Germany yesterday for owing "vast sums of money" to NATO and claimed the 28-member military alliance needs to pay the U.S. for protection less than a day after sitting down with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
In a tweet posted yesterday morning, Trump asserted that despite what Americans may be hearing "from the FAKE NEWS," his sit-down with Merkel was a "great meeting" before accusing the nation of owing "vast sums of money to NATO." His two-part Twitter post ended with: "The United States must be paid more for the powerful, and very expensive, defense it provides to Germany!"
Only five of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's 28 member countries meet the alliance's defense spending goal: the U.S., the U.K., Greece, Poland and Estonia.
In 2014, NATO committed to having each nation spend 2 percent of their gross domestic product on defense by 2024 — a timeline set in the wake of Russia's invasion of Crimea and one that Merkel reaffirmed this week in Washington, D.C. Germany currently spends 1.23 percent of its GDP on defense.
Former U.S. Ambassador for NATO Ivo Daalder was quick to point out that Trump isn't the first U.S. president to call on our European allies to up their defense spending.
"The essential point is, yes, Europe needs to pay more." Daalder told the Herald, though he said there's no zero-sum ledger that shows Germany or any other nation owes the United States for its military might.
"This entire idea that our defense spending somehow is for others, as opposed to for ourselves, is wrong," he said. "We are spending on defense because we think it's important to defend the things we're defending, including Europe. It's not a favor we do."

We ended up taking a day off in Contulmo, it was a quiet little town and during our first night there Glenn developed a sore throat and cough. In addition to this, the day before we arrived in town one of the bolts that holds Glenn's back rack snapped off and was stuck in the frame... we thought we might be able to find someone with tools to get it out...turned out we were wrong, but we did come up with a temporary solution involving a couple of pieces of steel...but hoped that we would not have to test it out on any gravel roads! From Contulmo we had a steep climb up to about four hundred meters, and then a lovely river side descent. As they have been for much of this coast route, the roads were quiet and smooth. We stopped for lunch in a bus shelter, and just as we were assembling our sandwiches a woman came over telling (not asking!) us to come over to her house for lunch. Even though we were half way through sandwich making, we packed up and went over, and we were treated to some beautiful Chilean hospitality. Nieves and her extended family fed us and made us feel right at home, they invited us to stay for the night, but we wanted to press on. We carried on and late afternoon filled up our water bottles and bought food for dinner. There has been more and more fresh water sources as we move further south, but they tend to have houses nearby making them not ideal for camping... So we are still filling up and lugging a bunch of water at the end of the day. Sometimes, hard for the muscles (and minds) to take, but water is fairly important. We eventually came upon a turn off into a Eucalyptus plantation. As we were making our way down the road, a forestry worker came from the other direction. We were pretty sure that we would be told that we could not camp there, but he said no problem, just don't make a fire or the helicopters will come with water bombs ! Just as we were setting up, we did indeed see a helicopter trailing a water bomb! As we cooked dinner on our stove, we hoped that this did not count as making a fire....?
We carried on passing the town of Traiguen, and stocking up for the next night in Galvarino. Again, loaded with water. As often is the case there was a big hill out of town and we were tired and ready to stop. After we reached the top of the hill we saw a truck pulled off to the side stopping drivers, we figured that they were having some sort of engine trouble... But then they beckoned for us to stop too. The man took Glenn's hand and seemed to reading it, and then a pregnant woman came out of the truck and took mine. I instinctively took mine away, I was getting a strange feeling about the situation. The woman then asked me for money and where we were from, I said no to the money request and that we were from Canada. Their accents did not seem Chilean or even Argentinian, so I asked her were she was from, and she said the USA. But when I spoke in English she did not understand. They then asked if they could have some of the water we were carrying. We said no, because we really did need it, and told them that there was a town just three km down the hill where they could get free water. We rode off, a little wary. Several minutes later they drove by. Then a few km down the road we passed them stopped again... We carried on. I was nervous about going off into the woods where they might see us. Then, they passed us again and stopped....the man ran out of the truck saying "water, water, just a little water". He had two baby bottles half full and wanted them topped up. We did fill them up, and then rode off again.... All in all it was really really strange. We still cannot figure out what was going on with them. Luckily they drove by once more, and then we finally started looking for a camp spot. There was a lot of fenced land, but eventually we found a bicycle sized entrance into a forest so we took it. It had been a long, and weird day.
We were only about forty km from Temuco, and we arrived there midday. The traffic had increased quite a lot and it took some getting used too! We had contacted a few couchsurfing hosts and one person had responded that they may be able to host us, so we used wifi for some time waiting for his response. It turned out he could not host us, so we had to find a place to stay. This turned out to be quite an expensive city....but after looking around for a long time we did find an almost reasonably priced room... We also found a bike shop that had a new chain for me, the owner also assured us that he could get out Glenn's broken bolt. We left the bikes and were told to come back the next afternoon... Which meant another day off... Which was ok with me!
Our day off in Temuco was pretty relaxed, it is not much of a tourist town ... At all... But there is a museum so we visited that. In the afternoon we headed back to the bike shop, only to find that my chain and new chain ring were not installed yet and the mechanics on duty did not know a thing about the bolt....regardless, they said they would not be able to remove it.... The saga of the stuck bolt continued.
We got a late start from Temuco, seems to the the trend these days. It doesn't get dark until almost 10:00 pm, so we are up a little later and not so rushed in the mornings. We had a brief 20 km taste of the highway 5 that runs right down the centre of Chile. It was busy, but with a wide shoulder and no real hills we knocked off that 20 km in no time at all... It was rather shocking after the past weeks of hilly, curvy fun... We then turned off towards the mountains. The road was still flat and fairly straight, so we moved along quickly. We wanted to stop before the town of Villarica and avoid paying for a room again, and luckily we were able to find an ungated turn off about 15 km before town. It turned out to be a fantastic camping spot ...in the bamboo grooves!
We woke up to cloudy skies, and as we were eating breakfast the rain began. By the time we reached Villarica we were soaked. We stopped and got food for lunch and decided to press on to Pucon. Our aim was to get beyond Pucon and camp... The road between Villarica and Pucon hugs the river, and should be wonderful, in theory. The problem is that the road is in very bad repair, especially the shoulder (if it's there at all), there was a lot of traffic and it was still pouring! So, by the time we got to Pucon we were tired, grumpy and really really wet. We started asking about places to stay and were shocked at the prices (minimum of $70.00 for a double room), we had pretty much resolved to carry on and camp in the woods when Glenn decided to ask one more place. Luckily it was less than half that of other places.... Still way beyond our normal budget, but on this particular day, it was worth it. We spent the evening drying out and resting!
Late afternoon we arrived at the end of the pavement, and also the Lanin Park visitors centre. We asked about camping in the grassy area behind the centre, and we were brought over to an unmarked and fabulous little campground! It was in the woods, and just 50 meters from a lovely river....plus it was free! We also had a very friendly dog as company for the evening... Although he did have a bit of a jumping problem.
Today was a dirt, sand, and gravel sort of day. We started climbing right off up the rocks and dirt. It was slow going, but fortunately we had done a good chunk of the climbing yesterday on pavement and we only had about 600 m of elevation gain left. The scenery was spectacular and without a doubt some of the best of the entire trip... Snow capped mountains, rivers, lakes...good good stuff. We did not reach the top, and the border until about 3:00pm, and then we started going down. Unfortunately, the gravel/sand continued for another 13 km....and it was nasty riding, even though we had gravity on our side. It was near 5:00 pm by the time we reached the pavement again, and it felt like heaven! We eventually found a camp spot (which may or may not have involved lifting all our stuff over a fence), went through the normal evening routine and crashed just before the sun disappeared.
We carried on down the pavement and it was lovely! The landscape had changed quite dramatically on this side the mountains. Much drier and vaster, the rugged beauty reminded us of Bolivia in many ways. We stopped in the town of Junin and got some groceries, as we were planning on stopping before the next town of San Martin. We pushed on, in the heat. This area is normally quite temperate, but seems to be experiencing a little heat wave. Granted, it is only 30 degrees, not 42! We finally found a camp spot, beside a little creek and enjoyed an incredible sunset in the evening.
We had a short ride to San Martin, and initially we were not planning on stopping overnight, but when Glenn mentioned the idea of taking a day off I jumped at the idea. I think that our bodies are getting a little weary at this stage. The ride into San Martin was intense, it seems it is touristy at this time of the year and traffic was thick and drivers seemed grumpy! Then, we had a hard time finding anything in our price range...but eventually we happened upon a little place run by a friendly woman and she had a cabana, which was really a big funky room with a little kitchen. Perfect! So we will stay here a couple days, regroup and decide on our route onwards.

Gilbert Stuart:
1755-1828 Gilbert Stuart was born in North Kingston, R.I., on Dec. 3, 1755. At the age of 13 or 14 he studied art with the Scottish painter Cosmo Alexander in Newport. With Alexander he made a tour of the South and a journey to Edinburgh, where Alexander died in 1772. For about a year Stuart remained, poverty-stricken, in Scotland, but finally, working as a sailor, he managed to get back to America. There he executed a few portraits in a hard limner fashion. With the Revolutionary War threatening, his family, who had Tory sympathies, fled to Nova Scotia, and Stuart sailed for London, where he remained from 1775 to 1787. For the first 4 or 5 years, Stuart served as the first assistant of American expatriate painter Benjamin West, who had rescued him from poverty. From the first, Stuart showed an interest only in portraiture and had no desire to go into the branch of history painting West practiced. After his apprenticeship, Stuart became London's leading portrait painter, next to Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough, whose style he emulated, as in a rare full-length portrait of William Grant of Congalton as The Skater (ca. 1782). For a while Stuart lived in splendor, but being a bad businessman and a profligate spender, he was in constant debt. He lived in Ireland from 1787 to 1792 and then returned to America to make a fortune,

The San Francisco 49ers have signed first-round pick Arik Armstead, according to Adam Caplan of ESPN.com. The 6'7″ and 292 pound defensive end was taken with the 17th pick overall out of Oregon.
#49ers announced first-round pick DE Arik Armstead signed his contract.
Armstead, 21, had his best season as a duck last year, recording 46 tackles and 2.5 sacks. The former basketball player improved every season, but is still very raw in a lot of areas and will need to keep improving if he wants to make an impact in the NFL.
Armstead could turn out to be a superstar for the 49ers or he could turn out to be a bust, it's really up to him and how much he works. Most experts have compared him to Calais Campbell, which is a fare comparison.

UAE businessman Habtoor calls on telcos to lift Skype ban
The outspoken billionaire said the ban on VoIP services went against the country's aim of being number one
by Robert Anderson
UAE businessman Khalaf Al Habtoor has called on the country's telecoms providers to lift a ban on internet calling services offered by Whatsapp and Skype.
The comments from the outspoken billionaire come following reports earlier this year that the country's telecoms regulator was in talks with US technology firms Apple and Microsoft towards the potential re-enabling of FaceTime and Skype.
Read: UAE's telecoms regulator in talks to lift Skype, FaceTime ban
In a Twitter video released on Sunday, Al Habtoor, the founder and chairman of conglomerate Al Habtoor Group, noted how people across the world are able to use Whatsapp and Skype calls "except in my country" where the telecoms provider are "locking it and blocking it".
"Therefore, I would like to request the management and the directors of these companies to release and free this system to enable everyone to enjoy [it]," he said.
VoIP apps have technically been illegal in the UAE for years but telecoms providers Etisalat and Emirates Integrated Telecommunications (Du) appeared to only take extra steps to completely block them to users at the end of last year.
This coincided with the launch of paid VoIP apps by the two companies.
Al Habtoor said the unavailability of the services went against the UAE's broader goal of being a leader on the world stage.
"In my country, the United Arab Emirates, we aim to be number one in everything. Why we are in the back as far as communication is concerned? We have to be parallel to our requirement and our aim to be number one," he said.
In a country like #UAE, where we aim to always be pioneers in all we do, #WhatsAppCall should not banned when it is accessible everywhere else in the world. I urge mobile carriers in the UAE to lift the ban, a service free to use in the top nations of the world. #KhalafAlHabtoor pic.twitter.com/Lzx0w24rL5

The UAE is one of the few countries in the Gulf region where Skype, FaceTime and other VoIP apps are still blocked after Saudi Arabia lifted its ban last September.

Sunday August 12th, 2018 'Drunk driver's sandwich absorbed alcohol before fatal crash, lawyer claims Truck driver charged after fatally striking Australian tourist The allegedly drunken garbage-truck driver who killed an Australian tourist near Central Park Friday wasn't impaired by the alcohol he drank that day — because he ate a chicken-salad sandwich before getting behind the wheel, his lawyer argued in court Saturday. Felipe Chairez, 44, was charged with driving while intoxicated after slamming his truck into 23-year-old Madison Jane Lyden, who was riding a rental bike just before 5 p.m. on Central Park West, police said. Police said they found three empty beer cans inside Felipe Chairez' sanitation truck after they stopped him at the scene of the fatal collision. But the beers wouldn't have affected his driving because of his lunch order that day, his lawyer claimed at Chairez' Saturday arraignment. "If he had a chicken salad sandwich, the alcohol may have been absorbed by the lunch he had," said lawyer Kenneth Ware. Chairez blood-alcohol level at the time of the crash was between .04 and .06, according to the court documents. Lyden had veered into Chairez' lane near West 67th Street and Central Park West after an Uber barged into her bike lane, police said. As she navigated around the livery car, Chairez slammed into her with his sanitation truck. Chairez was stopped by police at the scene, and admitted that he drank two beers before getting in the driver's seat, according to court documents. He was arraigned on the misdemeanor charge of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs and released on his own recognizance. He was also ordered to give up his license for the time being.
Saturday, August 11th, 2018 Semi driver arrested for drunken driving on U.S. 20 SPRINGVILLE — Indiana State Police say a Northwest Indiana man was intoxicated while driving a semi truck north of La Porte on Monday morning. About 10 a.m. Monday, a La Porte County Sheriff's deputy notified ISP of a truck driver carrying beer from a Family Express at the intersection of U.S. 20 and Ind. 39 near Springville, according to a statement from state police. A state trooper spotted the semi westbound on U.S. and pulled it over. He found the driver, identified as 58-year-old Garry Eriks of Griffith, had alcoholic beverages in the driving compartment of the semi, police said, and he seemed to be intoxicated. Eriks was arrested and taken to the La Porte County Jail, where he was charged with operating while intoxicated and cited for for violations of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations.
Friday August 10th, 2018 Police Arrest Man Dancing in the Middle of the Road after Leading Officers on a Chase JOPLIN, Mo- The Joplin Police Department arrested a man after he sped through a series of signal lights then stopping in the middle of the road and dancing outside his car. According to the Departments Facebook post, the incident happened Wednesday late afternoon around 4 p.m. An Officer was called and caught up to the suspect and stopped it. According to the report, the vehicle stopped in the middle of the road, and the driver turned his radio "up very loud and got out and started dancing in the center of the roadway ignoring officer's commands." The male suspect was taken into custody without incident. He was arrested for Driving While Intoxicated with a BAC of .10, careless driving, and other charges. Incident Spotlight: On August 8, 2018 at 3:54pm we received a call about a speeding car on north main that was running red lights. An officer caught up to the vehicle at 5th and Main and stopped it. The vehicle stopped quickly in the middle of the road, the driver turned his radio up very loud and got out and started dancing in the center of the roadway ignoring officer's commands. The male was approached and taken into custody without incident. He was arrested for Driving While intoxicated with a BAC of .10, careless driving, and other charges. Driving while impaired is no laughing matter and we are fortunate that no crashes were caused, and the male was located. We appreciate citizens calling such behaviors in so that we can act on their information. This was one of 3 DWI arrests we made yesterday evening.
Thursday, August 9th, 2018 After DUI, NASCAR CEO Will Be Leaving NASCAR chairman and CEO Brian France will be taking an indefinite leave of absence after being arrested for driving while intoxicated and criminal possession of oxycodone. On Sunday evening, France was reportedly pulled over in Sag Harbor, New York after running through a stop sign. Police said that France had a blood alcohol content of 0.18, more than double New York's 0.08 legal limit, and was in possession of oxycodone pills. He was arrested and held overnight. France apologized on Monday, saying in a statement that he would be taking a leave of absence starting immediately to focus on his "personal affairs." "I apologize to our fans, our industry, and my family for the impact of my actions last night," he added. France has served as chairman and CEO of Nascar since 2003. His uncle, Jim France, will take over his roles on an interim basis. Brian France is the third-generation leader of NASCAR. His grandfather, Bill France, founded the company in 1948.
Tuesday, August 7th, 2018 Pop Singer Aaron Carter Was Arrested in Georgia on Drug Charges Pop singer Aaron Carter were arrested after another motorist called 911 to report that the musician was "driving all over the road" on a Georgia highway, a sheriff's captain said Monday. Carter said on Twitter that he believes his "celebrity was targeted" during his weekend arrest in the northeast Georgia mountains on charges of driving under the influence and drug offenses. Thank you ALL for your prayers & well wishes. I am so sorry to all my fans that I missed. The truth will come out! Read my statement here: pic.twitter.com/XaiKqUeXxh - Aaron Carter (@aaroncarter) July 17, 2017 "He was driving all over the road and driving into the median," Habersham County sheriff's Capt. Floyd Canup said. The 29-year-old singer from Port Richey, Florida, was released on bail Sunday. He's accused of driving under the influence, possession of marijuana, and having drug-related objects, according to jail reports. In a statement tweeted Sunday, Carter says he has a license for medical marijuana for his "long standing anxiety." Georgia law doesn't allow the type of marijuana found during the arrest, Canup said. "It's not the green, leafy type which he had," he said. Carter also tweeted that he was not in a moving vehicle while he was arrested. However, Canup said that after the 911 call was made, a deputy spotted Carter driving as he turned into a local auto parts stores. "He was seen behind the wheel before the vehicle pulled in," Canup said. Carter's girlfriend, Madison Ann Parker, also was arrested and charged with obstructing or hindering law enforcement officers, possession of marijuana and possession of drug-related objects, jail records show. The records did not list attorneys for either Carter or Parker. The arrests occurred in the small town of Cornelia, about 75 miles northeast of Atlanta. Carter, whose older brother, Nick Carter, is a member of the Backstreet Boys, began performing at age seven. His second album, Aaron's Party (Come Get It), released in 2000, sold three million copies in the U.S. and led to guest appearances on Nickelodeon. He also started touring with his Backstreet Boys. In 2009, Carter was a contestant on ABC's Dancing With the Stars. Carter said his next show Monday evening at a shopping mall in Birmingham, Alabama will go on as scheduled.
Monday, August 6th, 2018 Man arrested twice in one week for DUI A 51-year-old Redding man who was arrested Wednesday for a blood-alcohol level four times over the legal driving limit, was arrested again Friday evening for driving under the influence, police said. Redding Police said someone reported around 8 p.m. Sean D. Vinson was "extremely intoxicated" and was seen getting out of the driver's seat of a 2000 Ford Expedition at the Chevron gas station on Tarmac Road. After the police received the description of the vehicle, license plate and driver, the Redding Police DUI officer headed to there and found Vinson as he was driving out of the parking lot. The officer made a traffic stop, but Vinson kept driving toward his home. The police recognized him as the man they'd arrested two days prior, and witnesses at the scene at that time had taken away Vinson's keys. That day, officers said they also found loaded firearms and an open container of alcohol in the pickup. This time around, police said Vinson showed signs of alcohol influence and conducted a DUI investigation. Vinson is on court probation for a prior DUI conviction and is required to have an ignition interlock device installed in any vehicle he owns or drives. Police said the device has not been installed in his vehicle. Vinson was booked into the Shasta County jail for driving under the influence of alcohol, driving with a blood alcohol concentration over a .08 percent, driving without a court-ordered ignition interlock device, failure to yield to a police officer and a violation of his court probation.
Desmond Lemon, a witness, says he saw the child fly out of the van while still in his car seat. "Pure chaos, the worst thing ever you would ever see," Lemon said.
Once Berna's stopped, officers conducted a field sobriety test and then arrested him on suspicion of operating while intoxicated.
The SUV driver, a 63-year-old Coopersville man, was arrested for operating while intoxicated causing death.
The department added at the bottom of the post, "Driving while impaired is no laughing matter and we are fortunate that no crashes were caused, and the male was located.
"You can't Uber yourself home," said Ron Snyder of the Maryland State Police, "You can't take a taxi home.
Driving while impaired in any way is not OK.
That was the day that Heather Heyer, 32, was killed while counter-protesting a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va.

A pumpkin cream pie served in a pecan-studded meringue crust.
That, right there, was supposed to be my masterpiece. This was going to be a winner recipe, and I imagined the food blog equivalent of everyone hoisting me on their shoulders and carrying me away to a raucous victory party where everyone brought something they made from a recipe on my blog and we all drank and hugged and had merry times until five the next morning.
How very, very wrong was I.
This mish-mash of ideas I found in various places come from individually neat ideas unto themselves, but plain silly when put together. For one thing, beginning to end, this stupid thing took me about seven hours. Seven freakin hours, can you believe that? On a weeknight, no less, so after getting home before five, I collapsed in bed around 1am (I know that's more than seven hours, but I take a little while to wind down).
The meringue takes about 30-45 minutes to whip up, then bakes for an hour. During which time there is nothing to fill the void, because we don't want to do anything with the pudding mix so it won't set anywhere but on that crust. The crust that bakes for an hour. Then cools for two hours.
Making the filling is easy enough. Except that after you put it in said crust it needs to chill for an hour.
On top of all that, I put too much sugar in my first meringue, so add about 45 minutes before I realized that this potion was never going to get stiff peaks. Then, just at the end of the final cooling, I started a caramel sauce from the Joy, but of course, this was not the kind of sauce I meant it to be, so after burning my finger with sticky hot sugar, I tried another batch. And then added too much water at the end. We'll only count the last half hour of that, since the first half was spent waiting.
Then I cut into the pie to take a nice picture.
Look at that friggin thing! What a mess! It is so pathetic that it looks like it's hanging its head in shame, and it's a slice of pie, how could it even do that? I don't know, but it is.
The meringue crust is not the worst idea in a world full of crusts made out of Crisco, but you can't make this more than 24 hours before it needs to be done, or else all the moisture from the pie will turn it into a gummy mess. And I don't know why it stuck so fervently to the bottom of the pie plate, I oiled that sucker and everything! The flavour combination was pretty great, though, and this idea may be salvageable. But right now . . . I'm too tired to salvage.
I'm sure I'm not alone in this. What's the biggest kitchen disappointment you've been on the receiving end of? Did you manage to salvage anything from it?

Q: Deploy a flask app in using Cloudera Application I have been using the following python 3 script in a CDSW session which run just fine as long as the session is not killed.
I am able to click on the top-right grid and select my app

hello.py
from flask import Flask
import os

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return 'Web App with Python Flask!'

app.run(host=os.getenv("CDSW_IP_ADDRESS"), port=int(os.getenv('CDSW_PUBLIC_PORT')))

I would like this app to run 24/7, so instead of using a Session or scheduling a job that never ends, I would like to create a CDSW Application so that it doesn't stop.
This is the settings on my application:

Logs:
from flask import Flask
import os
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def index():
    return 'Web App with Python Flask!'
app.run(host=os.getenv("CDSW_IP_ADDRESS"), port=int(os.getenv('CDSW_PUBLIC_PORT')))
 * Serving Flask app "__main__" (lazy loading)
 * Environment: production
   WARNING: Do not use the development server in a production environment.
   Use a production WSGI server instead.
 * Debug mode: off
OSError: [Errno 98] Address already in use

I tried to change the port from CDSW_PUBLIC_PORT to CDSW_APP_PORT but it ends up the same.

A: As it mentions here maybe you need to change this line of code
app.run(host=os.getenv("CDSW_IP_ADDRESS"), port=int(os.getenv('CDSW_PUBLIC_PORT')))

to this
app.run(host="127.0.0.1", port=int(os.environ['CDSW_APP_PORT']))

Hope it works!

One of the most unexpected, most salutary developments of our era has been the triumphant resurgence of vegetables. No longer regarded as a side dish of life or anodyne adjunct, vegetables have arrived!
We are in the midst of a vegetable Renaissance. The Dark Ages, when vegetables were boiled into colorless, textureless, flavorless pap are well behind us. At faddish restaurants legumes are now rendered into fanciful, exotic forms, with effects falling between origami and three-dimensional chess. Sometimes I almost sense our vegetable friends feel silly and out of place in these culinary contrivances. Between bites, I hear their cries. "George," they mew, "free us from these motley habiliments. We are not made or designed by people. Let vegetables be vegetables. If you humans love us, love us for ourselves." Now you know.
If I failed to foresee the dawning of the Age of the Vegetable, I still less anticipated the corresponding Waning of the Flower. The poet Gertrude Stein wrote, "Before the flowers of friendship faded, fading friendship faded." Where have all the flowers gone?
Not so long ago, our towns and cities were blooming with florist shops. Restaurant and dining room tables flared with flora. Women wore nosegays. Men's buttonholes clutched flowers. Guests arrived bearing bouquets. Maidens wore flowers in their hair.
Where flowers are not, romance is not. Does this sound simplistic? It is simplistic, and true. Romance evaporates in the neutral, scentless, colorless, lifeless air of our digital life. Flowers provide the perfect antidote to our too-modern civilization: the ultimate melding of color, form, texture and scent.
For millennia, flowers have engaged our senses and subconscious. Floral images live in paintings, fabrics, vases, shrines, ceremonies, avowals of love, songs, and poetic odes, evoking remembrance, nobility, beauty, peace, glory and salvation. Little wonder the flower was the cherished symbol of the Romantic Movement: flowers evoke nature at its most exalted, sublime and phantasmagoric.
Painter Monet wondered, if it were not for flowers, would he have become a painter Transcendentalist Emerson observed, "The earth laughs in flowers." Meanwhile Dr. Freud astutely noted, "Flowers are restful to look at. They have not emotions or conflicts." Flowers dispel depression and soothe wounded bodies and souls. They engage and inspire our senses in multiple ways.
Seasonally, flowers long precede vegetables, heralding spring to wan, weary beings etiolated by winter's shallow light. They are the glittering jewels of the garden. Humankind has happily gardened flowers for 8,000 years; it is one of the original earthly joys. It's time to cultivate our flower garden.
The space once given flowers in the garden increasingly is allocated to vegetables. Patios now feature tomato, pepper and basil plants: no flowers to be seen or sniffed. More likely, the flowers, wherever they might be, are sniffing back tears, brought on by their increasing neglect.
My hope is that our cities' community gardeners will extend their love of horticulture to cut flowers as well as "urban vegetables". The last 15 years have reduced the number of American florists by 40%; the ranks of America's commercial flower growers are in steep decline.
The narrow selection of ornamental flowers in your groceries are raised by workers in poor conditions, then flown in from South America, Africa, and the Middle East: not exactly locavore. After their travels and travails by jet and truck, the plastic-wrapped, freshly gassed blooms are often in bleak condition, billowing pollutants. The flowers we see in our florists and groceries scarcely hint at the spectrum of flower color, blooms, patterns and scents. It's as if we limited ourselves to playing just a dozen notes or so on our floral piano.
Vegetables feed your body; flowers feed your soul. See how a single flower can transform a room. Bask in the brilliance of a newly opened flower, as your eyes drink the saturated colors. Marvel at radiance of a meadow awash in color. Let a thousand urban gardens bloom.

We are so very lucky here in Seattle, Washington. We have Pike Place Market with buckets and buckets of flowers that are grown within a short distance of the city. The growers bring them in their trucks and set up stalls. Walking through the market is thrilling because of the masses of flowers everywhere.
I would not be so quick to declare the death of flower planting. At my heirloom plant sale (Princeton NJ) people come year after year because they want the fragrant nicotianas, the tall gomphrenas, the unusual cat's whiskers and lion's tails. For some time now, breeders have been catering to the landscapers, who like "neat." "Tidy." Give gardeners a taste of wild, of unusual, of butterflies at their windows, and they want more — not more of the same but more and different. This year, I will have a foxglove party. Next year, people will want to grow foxgloves. It's a given.
I grow a very nice vegetable garden, but I also grow many annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees. I have 220 roses and other cut flowers and I love sharing them with family and friends. Even the smallest bouquet of pansies brings smiles on faces. Flowers absolutely bring joy to everyone.
Thanks so much for your words about flowers. The fact that my garden is flowers (all flowers) has actually resulted in derision! We have a farmstand nearby with locally grown produce, and a weekly farmer's market for our bounty. We support them, and meanwhile can appreciate the loveliness of blossoms. Really appreciated your comments!
Mr. Ball, that was beautiful. Thank you.
I know the horticulturalist (not me) in the family would agree with you. Back in the 70's you could go to a nursery raising mums and there would be 40 or 50 different varieties with colors all over the place and varieties of different flower types. Now all the flower types are the same and you see about 5 or 6 colors. Going to another nursery (assuming it is still in business and not run by a corporation) will not add any more variety.
The same is true of alpines, conifers and shrubs. The only exception might be perennials but even that is a bit rough these days.
It's hard for small operations to compete against 1 dollar perennials and 5 dollar orchids at the big places. . . oh well.
Oh for the King Sisters in Lancaster County.
Even the vegetable plants affirm this, when they smuggle their own contribution of blooms into our modern, efficient, and functional rows.
Wonderful column, I thoroughly enjoyed every word.
I agree that we need to nourish the soul as that is what gets us out of bed in the morning. There is never a moment in our house that we do not have a blooming plant or container. So I will raise my cocktail tonight to flowers.
I can honestly say that everything essential that I needed to know in life I learned from watching my flower gardens and then watching/listening to my parents as they gardened. Every religion can be reduced to one single flower. It's all there in that one flower – the meaning of life and love. Everything else is cluttering details.
What a pleasure to read well written language together with well thought out content. I've started with the first article and will enjoy the rest with my coffee and breakfast and maybe even lunch! Thank you very much!
I live on Long Island, NY where it gets harder and harder to grow flowers since we are overrun with deer. Our veggie garden has an 8 ft fence around it so we plant flowers in amongst the vegetables and on our deck. So sad that there is now a deer dilemma. I agree with you that flowers lift our spirits.

Q: Is the Veronese variety "enough" to describe all the $SL(V)$-orbits in $\mathbb{P}(\textrm{Sym}^dV)$? I apologise in advance if the question will look ridicolous to experienced eyes: in this case a good reference will be enough to clarify my doubts.
Let $V$ be a complex vector space of dimension $n$, and $\textrm{Sym}^dV$ the space of homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$ (on $V^*$). Assume also that $SL_n$ acts naturally on $$\mathbb{P}^{M(n,d)}:=\mathbb{P}(\textrm{Sym}^dV)\, .$$
Motivating the prelim. question. If $n=2$ and $d=3$, then $M(n,d)=3$. In this case, there are two special orbits in $\mathbb{P}^{M(n,d)}=\mathbb{P}^3$: a one-dimensional one, given by the twisted cubic $\gamma$, and a two-dimensional one, given by $T\gamma\smallsetminus\gamma$, which is the set of the smooth points of the tangent variety to $\gamma$. I don't know if $\mathbb{P}^3\smallsetminus T\gamma$ is an orbit as well, but surely it is an invariant subset: let me call it the "open cell".
This example can be easily generalised, by replacing the twisted cubic $\gamma$ with the Veronese variety $v_d(\mathbb{P}(V))$ in $\mathbb{P}^{M(n,d)}$, and by noticing that the subsets
$$
X_{i,n,d}:=\textrm{Osc}_i(v_d(\mathbb{P}(V)))\smallsetminus \textrm{Osc}_{i-1}(v_d(\mathbb{P}(V)))\subset \mathbb{P}^{M(n,d)}\quad \quad (^*)
$$
are $SL_n$-invariant (by "$\textrm{Osc}_i$" I mean the $i^\textrm{th}$ osculating variety, i.e., the union of the $i^\textrm{th}$ order osculating spaces).

PRELIM. QUESTION: for which values of $n$ and $d$ all the subsets $X_{i,n,d}$ (possibly discarding the "open cell") are orbits?

The  example above (if I did it correctly) shows that $n=2$ and $d=3$ are ok, but what next?
Motivating the main question. Observe that $X_{0,n,d}$ is the Veronese itself, which is always an orbit (as long as $SL_n$ acts transitively on $\mathbb{P}V$). Observe also that the next $X_{i,n,d}$'s are constructed from $X_{0,n,d}$ in a "natural way" (e.g., by taking tangent lines).
Idea. Maybe there are more sophisticated "natural operations" allowing to "enlarge" the Veronese variety $X_{0,n,d}$ in such a way that the difference between subsequent "enlargements" is an orbit.
I call "natural enlargement" the construction of a larger invariant subset out of a smaller one, by means of natural objects associated to the latter (lines/subspaces with a certain tangency, (multi)secant subspaces, sections of natural bundles, etc.).

MAIN QUESTION: Is there any other example of a decomposition of $\mathbb{P}^{M(n,d)}$ into invariant subsets, simliar to $(^*)$, but finer?

By "similar" I mean a formula like $(^*)$ where the osculating varieties are replaced by something else, and by "finer" I mean that the so-obtained  invariant subsets are smaller than the $X_{i,n,d}$'s.

A: one can take the  secant varieties of the Veronse, where in general
$\sigma_r(X)=\overline{\langle x_1,...,x_r\rangle \mid x_j\in X}$, where
$\langle \rangle$ denotes linear span. These sets are $GL(V)$-invariant, as are the sets constructed by mixing your osculating construction and these (e.g. take $X$ the tangential variety of the Veronese instead of just the Veronese). The cases where they are all orbits are just $d=2$ any $n$ or
$d=3$ $n=2$. Another way to get invariant sets is to take the dual variety
of the Veronese, then its singular locus, then the singular locus of the singular locus etc.. and again one can mix and match constructions.

DRAKENSBERG BOYS CHOIR
(South Africa)
Since its establishment, the Drakensberg Boys Choir School has seen many different conductors and produced a number of successful musicians among the boys who have passed through its doors. Notable conductors include Johann van der Sandt, Botes Gresse, Christian Ashley-Botha ('Bunny'), Rudolf de Beer and Juan Burgers. Some of the Old Boys who have become prominent musicians, nationally and internationally, include Deon van der Walt, Colin Lee, Clint van der Linde, Jacques Imbrailo, Nicholas Nicolaides, the Bala Brothers, Rory Rootenberg and William Berger.
The school consists of approximately 120 boys, from Grade 4 to Grade 9, who have been selected through auditions held across the country. Every day, the boys have seven academic lessons, including Mathematics, Languages, Economics, Natural and Social Sciences, IT, Art and Music subjects, as well as two hours of choir rehearsals. The choir performs an average of 80 concerts per year, which includes the weekly Wednesday concerts held in the Ken Mackenzie Auditorium on the school premises.
The choir tours at least twice a year, both nationally and internationally. The countries they have visited include Israel, the United States of America, Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom, Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, Greece, Turkey, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, France, Taiwan, Poland, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Egypt and Botswana. One of the tour highlights was an invitation in 1983, from Pope John Paul II, to perform in St. Peter's Square. They were the first South African cultural group to perform behind the Iron Curtain in 1985, and were also invited to perform at a congress of the American Chiral Directors' Association in 2007.
In 2017, the choir performed 25 concerts in all major cities of Japan, by invitation of the Min-On Concert Association, in front of a combined audience of over 36 000 people. In 2018 the choir was invited as a guest choir to the European Youth Choir Festival in Basel (Switzerland), where they were the only choir from the outside of Europe.
In 2018, the Drakensberg Boys Choir competed at the 10th World Choir Games, held in Tshwane, South Africa. They won the Champions' Title for 'Scenic Pop', with one of the highest scores in the entire competition. After their very first competitive competition, the Drakensberg Boys Choir has now been placed as the highest ranking Boys' Choir in the world, on the Interkultur World Ranking List.
The story of the Drakesnberg Boys Choir begins in 1954 when Gwen "Ma" Tungay bought two of the three portions of the subdivided farm "Geduld" that was owned by Mr Erfmann for £6,000. Her father had died two years earlier and she had inherited £3,000 which she used as a deposit on the farm and which she registered in her husband Ronnie's name. The Tungays were no strangers to the Champagne Valley and had been visiting the valley annually for holidays since their honeymoon in 1935. Their second eldest son, Peter, had expressed an interest in becoming a farmer and of taking the farm over, but he was tragically killed in a plane crash in October 1960. Deliberations then began of selling the farm as it was logistically difficult to run the farm from Durban and the running costs were high. However, Russell, their youngest son, objected and suggested starting a caravan park to sustain the farm. He took three years to build the first ablution block by hand and the caravan park formally opened its doors in December 1963...

Two more murders raise death count in outer East Portland
See what we've found out about two homicides – in the Hazelwood and the Centennial neighborhoods. And, get the TRUE story about how the police bureau's spokesman helped capture one of the suspected murderers …
Throughout the day, detectives carefully look for evidence at a house, here in the northeast corner of the Hazelwood neighborhood.
Some folks are calling December 15th "Bloody Monday". Two individuals – one in a home in outer East Portland's Hazelwood neighborhood, the other in a house trailer in the Centennial area –violently lost their lives.
Death in Hazelwood
A resident on NE 143rd Avenue, between E. Burnside and NE Glisan Streets, noticed his neighbor hadn't been around, so he went over and checked to see how he was dong.
"8:12 am, Portland Police Bureau East Precinct officers were called to the 100 block of NE 143rd Avenue, after a man found the body of his neighbor," reported the bureau's Public Information Officer (PIO), Sergeant Brian Schmautz.
There was evidence of homicidal violence at the scene; Homicide Detectives were called to conduct an investigation," Schmautz added.
His neighbor found this man, 67-year-old Howard Curtiss Olson, dead of 'homicidal violence' in his Hazelwood home.
"An autopsy, conducted by the Multnomah County Medical Examiner determined that Olson died of Homicidal Violence," Schmautz told us the following day. "The victim has been identified as 67-year-old Howard Curtiss Olson. For investigative reasons, detectives are withholding specific information about the cause of death."
As this investigation continues, you are asked to call Detective Steve Ober at (503) 823-4033 or Detective Jim McCausland at (503) 823-0449, if you have information about this case.
Suspected Centennial-area murderers nabbed
Here at Mobile Estates, in the Centennial neighborhood, the sound of gunshots prompt citizens to call police on what turned out to be a murder. The pickup truck seen exiting the park is NOT related to this case.
While officers were beginning to investigate the Hazelwood murder, at 9:26 am on December 15, someone heard shots ring out at about a mile to the south in the Centennial neighborhood.
When police arrived at the at the Mobile Estates trailer park in the 16700 block of SE Division Street, officers found the body of a deceased man in his mid to late forties.
Homicide Detectives were called to conduct an investigation, and witnesses described several people – and a car – they believed to be involved in the shooting.

PIO helps capture gun-toting suspect
Sgt. Schmautz told us that he was driving from the earlier homicide, and pulled up to the trailer park when officers noticed a vehicle that matched the description given by witnesses.
"One of the suspects jumped out of the car, and started running down the sidewalk," related Schmautz. "He was seen carrying a gun. I was paralleling him, ready to help officers on scene set up a perimeter to contain the suspect."
The suspect did a U-turn in the parking lot, trying to get away. "I could see him through the arborvitae, running right toward me. I waited until the suspect was 15 or 20 feet from me, and then stepped into his path," Schnautz continued.
When the suspect saw Schmautz's drawn service revolver, he stopped running. Another officer ran to join Schmautz and provide cover. "The suspect would not keep his hands up, and away from his body. I was concerned because he had been seen with a gun just a few minutes before."
The covering officer handed Schmautz his Tazer – who used it. And shortly after being shocked, the suspect complied and gave up.
Not all of this story has been told correctly by others – but now, you know exactly how it happened that the Police Department's spokesman became a key part of a story he was on scene to help reporters cover.
"Really, none of this is about me," Schmautz said modestly. "I just did one little part. Officers were there before I arrived – and for hours after it happened – examining the crime scene and talking to people in the area. I happened to be in place a place where I could help out."
This trio, nabbed by cops, includes 22-year-old Lindsey Michelle Criss, charged with one count of Aggravated Murder; and 33-year-old Jason Ray Jarrell and 40-year-old Verneal Jones, both charged with one count of Murder.
Police say this man, 48-year-old Joe Frank Cruz, was shot to death at the Mobile Estates trailer park.
Dies from gunshot wound
"The Multnomah County Medical Examiner's autopsy determined that the victim, 48-year-old Joe Frank Cruz, died from a gunshot wound," Schmautz later stated. "For investigative reasons, investigators are withholding additional information in this investigation. Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Brian Grose at (503) 823-0757, or Detective Bryan Steed at (503) 823-0395."
Late in the afternoon, officers and detectives work the Division Street crime scene, using the Community Policing Mobile Precinct as their headquarters.

HealthGW Pharmaceuticals
This Company Made the First FDA Approved, Marijuana Based Drug. Here's What It Wants to Do Next
Sy Mukherjee
On Monday, GW Pharmaceuticals made history by becoming the first company to ever win Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for a marijuana plant-based prescription drug, dubbed Epidiolex. The approval was widely expected after a panel of FDA advisers unanimously recommended its regulatory clearance back in April; still, it was a milestone on the federal level. Until this week, the only existing (legal) prescription treatments involving cannabis were of the synthetic variety, not those that actually came from a marijuana plant.
Epidiolex, whose active ingredient is a formulation of the marijuana component cannabidiol (CBD)—i.e., not the high-causing "THC" part of weed—was approved for children two years of age and older with certain intractable childhood epilepsy disorders called Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Now that it's done, the flood gates could open for other companies in the cannabis space—and for GW Pharma itself, the company's CEO Justin Gover tells Fortune.
"Epidiolex can get more indications, primarily within the epilepsy sphere, as well as potentially other indications," Gover said in a telephone interview. So what else might be next? GW could "start to accelerate investment in other types of cannabinoids," including another treatment in its pipeline called Sativex. That drug has actually already been approved in several countries outside the U.S. to treat spastic muscle movements in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients; the firm may try and expand it into America now that the FDA has signaled a willingness to consider marijuana-derived treatments that are backed up by clinical trial data.
That latter point is critical to GW Pharma and its overall ambitions, particularly winning over the doctors who would have to prescribe the company's cannabis-based medicines. "The fact that the Epidiolex program was designed and conceived with the medical community wanting to see real science in the field of cannabinoids" is what gives it a leg up, Gover explains. Theoretically, various cannabinoid formulations could also show promise in treating neurological and behavioral disorders.
As for looser definitions of "medical marijuana" to treat pain and other conditions? Don't expect a blessing from the FDA anytime soon—agency commissioner Scott Gottlieb has stressed that far more rigorous studies need to be done on the medical effects of weed at large.

Interior design has a powerful presence in our every day lives. Whether directly perceived or subliminally experienced, it has a direct effect on our psyches, bodies and human interactions. It guides (and misguides) us; a woven rug produces a haptic reaction underfoot, our spines conform to (or fight against) the arch of a chair back. The dialogue between human and interior is constant, inspiring and evocative. It is an opportunity to enhance human experience.

AMERICAN INDIAN ADOPTEES: This Week In American Indian News: ICWA Summit Off?
This Week In American Indian News: ICWA Summit Off?
We lead today with an update on the Lakota/Bureau of Indian Affairs [BIA] summit scheduled for mid-May. I did not think this was public, but as of Saturday morning, the Associated Press is reporting it in a local South Dakota news outlet, so it's now out there.
Two weeks ago, I wrote about the "Lakota Spring," including a pair of upcoming hearings organized by the Standing Rock Sioux Nation in preparation for the summit. The BIA agreed to the summit after members of Congress, under pressure from Sioux tribal members, demanded an investigation into reports that South Dakota state officials intentionally engaged in repeated violations of the Indian Child Welfare Act [ICWA] by improperly removing Indian children from their families and placing them in white foster or adoptive homes. In any other context, we'd call that what it is: Kidnapping. In South Dakota, it's called capitalism, since it's a moneymaker for both white families and the state.
Well, after much apparent hemming and hawing, the BIA has released its agenda for the summit - an agenda, I remind you, that was supposed to be a joint project between BIA officials and tribal leaders.
And it's a whitewash. In the multiple senses of that term.
Yes, I do know this, because I've seen the agenda.
I've seen no official public response from the BIA yet, and I'm not taking bets at this point as to whether the summit will actually occur.


Why aren't coffee cups recycled right now?
Recycling coffee cups is complex -- paper cups are lined with plastic (called polycoat) and this is difficult to recycle. In addition, the lids are plastic (polystyrene) and are designed to stay on tight, so if the lid isn't removed by the user, it doesn't always come off in the recycling process and contaminates the paper stream.
While some municipalities accept the cups in the green bin, or the blue bin, they all request that cup lids are removed. Toronto staff are concerned that increasing the level of potential contamination is a big problem for Toronto, as it may mean more paper sent for recycling actually gets sent to landfill instead.
The City of Toronto - as part of it's Long Term Waste Strategy - is doing some more research and some pilot studies on take out coffee cup recycling. This isn't the first time - in 2008 and 2009, the City did a number of reports on recycling technology, public behaviour and policy options. Read the past reports on the City website (scroll down).
What role do coffee shops have?
Coffee and hot drink retailers like Tim Horton's or Starbucks decide what type of material to sell their drinks in, so they need to play a role in how their cups are disposed of. Some retailers offer recycling in their stores, however since most cups leave the store, that doesn't solve the bigger waste issue.
Through voluntary programs, or through city or Provincial regulations, coffee shops could re-design their cups to make them easier to recycle. For example coffee cups could be made of a single material for both parts (e.g. a waxed polycoat lid, or a polystyrene cup body), or by using a different cup design. (Check out this new cup being tested in the UK - thanks to Ria for sharing this on the WasteFreeTO website!).
Ultimately, the best solution is to reduce the use of single-use cups altogether. Retailers can offer drinks in refillable mugs in-store, and consumers can bring their own mugs.
