The CubeSTAR project is a student satellite project at University of Oslo (UiO) in Norway. The project was initiated in December 2008 by the Department of Physics at UiO and the Norwegian Centre for Space-related Education (NAROM) with financial support from the Norwegian Space Center(NSC).
The CubeSTAR is a nano-satellite built after the Cubesat standard. Cubesat is a satellite standard developed by California Polytechnic University (Calpoly) and Standford University in 1999. The standard specifies a mechanical structure with the physical dimensions, 10x10x10cm, with a maximum weight up to 1.33kg. The structure is designated as a "1U".
The CubeSTAR will be built as a "2U", which means that the satellites physical dimensions will be 10x10x20cm and the total weight will be no more than 2.66 kg.
The satellite will be launched in 2013 into an polar orbit where it will be performing measurments over the artic regions.
CubeSTAR contains several subsystems which fulfills various tasks:
- Electronic Power System, collects and distributes power to the satellite
- Communication system, maintains a communication link with a ground station
- Attitude Determination and Control system, controls the attitude of the satellite
- On-Board Controller, collects housekeeping data and maintains control of the satellite
The project is divided into six work groups, one for each of the satellite subsystems and a project management team. The technical groups are managed by students, where the work is mainly performed through master thesis. The students are responsible for developing the various systems and solving all the technical aspects of the project, but will receive support from the staff from the faculty (project leader, technical and scientific advisers), the electronic workshop and the mechanical workshop.
ANSAT Workshop 2011
The annual ANSAT workshop was held at the Andoya Rocket Range (ARR) from 19-20. june.
Members from the three norwegian student satellite projects, HiNCube, CubeSTAR and NUTS attended the workshop along with Kjell Paulsen from Kongsberg Defense Systems and members of ANSAT.
During the workshop status and "lessons learned" of HiNCube, CubeSTAR and NUTS was presented and discussed.
Guest speaker Kjell Paulsen from Kongsberg Defense Systems held interesting and educational lectures about Satellite design review and Qualification testing.
Testing of the UHF satellite antenna
The ISIS Turnstile UHF antenna has been tested on a 2U cubesat structure. The antenna was succesfully deployed using software commands and used to send radio signals to the ground station.
NUTS Cubesat Seminar
The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) held a cubesat seminar to introduce the work being performed on their student satellite project NUTS. Three CubeSTAR students attended the seminar to learn about the NUTS and exchange information and experience with the other students.
1st IAA Conference on University Satellite Missions and Cubesat Workshop
In late January, five students from the University of Oslo attended the 1st IAA Conference on University Satellite Missions and Cubesat Workshop held in Rome.
The CubeSTAR satellite along with the payload system was presented in two separate presentaions during the conference.

Because I felt like it
Apple v Samsung DownUnder
war / 3 August 2011 / Patents
At (Foss Patents') last count, the war between Apple and Samsung now ranges across 4 continents and 11 different courts in 9 countries. (For the start of the war, start here.)
As of yesterday, one of those countries is Australia where, on Apple's application for an interlocutory injunction, in return for an undertaking as to damages Samsung gave undertakings:
Until the determination of this proceeding or further order of the Court, the respondents and each of them, by themselves, their servants or agents or otherwise, without admission of liability will not without the licence of the first applicant, import, promote, offer to supply, supply, offer for sale or sell in Australia the Galaxy Tab 10.1 device the subject of paragraph 3 of the affidavit of Reginald Leones affirmed 28 July 2011.
Until the determination of this proceeding or further order of the Court, the respondents will on the provision of suitable confidentiality undertakings, provide to the solicitors for the applicants 3 samples of the version of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 device intended for launch in Australia at least 7 days prior to the date of intended distribution to sales channels for the purpose of review and analysis.
Until the expiration of the 7 day period referred to in paragraph 2 above, without any admission of liability, the respondents and each of them, by themselves their servants or agents will not:
(a)     advertise;
(b)	seek expressions of interest from consumers in relation to;
(c)	sell;
(d)	authorise or facilitate the advertisement by third parties of; or
(e)	otherwise supply to consumers,
the device referred to in paragraph 2 above.
At least as reported in the media here, Apple's claim doesn't appear to be relying on trade dress but, rather, the more concrete rights conferred by patents. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the patents in dispute are:
Standard Patents
- 2008201540: List scrolling and document translation, scaling, and rotation on a touch-screen display
- 2005246219: Multipoint touchscreen
- 2007283771: Portable electronic device for photo management
- 2007286532: Touch screen device, method and graphical user interface for determining commands by applying heuristics
Innovation Patents
- 2008100372: Electronic device for photo management
- 2009100820: Unlocking a device by performing gestures on an unlock image
- 2008101171: Portable electronic device for imaged-based browsing of contacts
The Court would have required an undertaking as to damages as part of the price for awarding an interlocutory injunction pending trial if it had been pressed to decide the application.
Samsung subsequently issued a press release claiming in effect that it's all a misunderstanding and it was never going to release the US version of its Galaxy Tab 10.1.
From the perspective of a US patent lawyer, Samsung's position looks pretty weak. On the other hand, Patentology thinks Samsung hasn't conceded much and has the upper hand.
Samsung is making a special version of the Galaxy Tab for Australia?

Q: form button not working after checkbox select using jquery I have added a jQuery script to check if checkbox is checked or not.
If checked doing something and If not doing something else.
Here is my jQuery code:

jQuery('#mybtn').click(function (e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    if (jQuery('#mytc').is(':checked')) {

        jQuery('#myfrm').attr('action', 'http://test.php');

        jQuery('#checkerror').html('');

    } else {
        jQuery('#checkerror').html('Please agree to the Terms and Conditions.');
    }

 });
<form id="myfrm">

Lorem ipsum dolor

  <input type="checkbox" id="mytc" value=""/>
    I agree to the Terms and Conditions.

  <input type="submit" id="mybtn" value="Proceed to Checkout"/>
</form>

So when I submit Process to Checkout button it still shows same page. Where is the problem?

A: use prevent default in the case where the checkbox is not checked.
jQuery('#mybtn').click(function (e) {

    if (jQuery('#mytc').is(':checked')) {
        jQuery('#myfrm').attr('action', 'http://test.php');

        e.preventDefault();
        jQuery('#checkerror').html('Please agree to the Terms and Conditions.');
        return false;
    }
});

jQuery('#mybtn').click(function (e) {

    if (jQuery('#mytc').is(':checked')) {

        jQuery('#myfrm').attr('action', 'http://test.php');

Global Literals
The State Of English In Singapore
Improving The Standard Of English
Singapore has four official languages: Malay, Tamil, Chinese and English, reflecting our ethnic diversity and our history. Our mother tongues give us access to our diverse cultures, values and roots, while English is our working language. Using English as the common language for administration and education has helped Singaporeans from all walks of life understand one another and live together harmoniously.
Equally importantly, proficiency in the English language has also provided Singaporeans with a medium to communicate with others around the world - for business and trade, in academia, in international fora, for travel and leisure, over the Internet. It has given Singaporeans a key advantage - global literacy - so that we can directly communicate and convey our views to others in many settings around the world.
Knowing English conveys these advantages only because it helps us understand others and helps others understand us. If we use a form of English that is not understood by others, it might become a charming curiosity, but it would cease to provide Singaporeans with that global literacy that is so necessary in the future globalized and interconnected world.
We are not the only ones who worry about learning English and achieving global literacy. In Japan and South Korea, they are trying to introduce more English in schools. In the Philippines, Hong Kong and Malaysia, countries with a long history of English usage, educationists, businessmen and politicians have all expressed concern about the erosion of standards. All these countries want to improve English standards, to improve the competitiveness of their people and their economies.
COPYRIGHT_WI: Published on https://washingtonindependent.com/w/english-s-number-one-advantage-of-literacy/ by Kenzo Norman on 2021-03-08T16:45:39.507Z
We in Singapore already enjoy a decisive advantage in the English Language. We are the only country in East Asia where English is so widely used and taught. We should press home this advantage and strengthen the ability of our people to use English of a standard that allows our people to communicate effectively with others around the world.
This is all the more necessary because we are a small country. We thrive on the international exchange of goods, ideas and capital. Our ability to establish and maintain links with the outside world is of fundamental importance.
In a knowledge economy, language becomes even more important. Developments occur at the speed of thought. Knowledge workers and their products are intimately connected to each other and to the market. They collaborate on research and development and product design across national boundaries. They exchange ideas and market information. Their products and services are produced in several countries simultaneously and sold or delivered in many others. Global literacy becomes a key competitive advantage in such an interconnected world.
The use of English in Singapore has become more widespread. As one example, the proportion of Primary 1 students who come from homes where English is the main language used has nearly doubled from 23% in 1989 to 39% in 1999. The proportion of candidates who obtain an 'O' level pass in English has increased from 67% in 1989 to 73.8% in 1999.
English is more widely used today. However, the quality of English used has suffered some erosion. This is not surprising. For most students English is still not their home language. And for the vast majority of adult Singaporeans who use English, English is a foreign language. They are first-generation users of the language. English was not used at home, and they learnt it only upon entering school.
The syntax, grammar, expressions, pronunciation and rhythms of their own mother tongues come more naturally to them. These creep into the English they use. When students and others who are learning English look for models of English usage in daily life, or for opportunities to use the language, they encounter such usage and accept that as the norm.
The result is that the English in daily use in Singapore has taken on distinct characteristics of its own. Some of these characteristics make it very difficult for Singaporeans to make themselves understood by others, in speech or in writing. It would not matter if we were some isolated and self-contained agricultural or fishing community that rarely needed to come into contact with the outside world. But it makes a critical difference for the Singapore of today and the Singapore of the future. Global literacy is a key competitive advantage. Today we enjoy an advantage in this area. We should improve our global literacy and not allow it to back-slide.
The improvement in our day to day use of the English language must be addressed in a concerted manner.
The schools are playing their part to encourage the use of proper English. Schools have regularly organized Speak English campaigns, speech, drama and storytelling activities, debates, essay competitions, extensive reading programs and English language camps, among a host of others. These activities and programs should continue and even be stepped up if necessary, to encourage the use of standard English among pupils.
To complement the efforts of the schools, the Ministry of Education has also taken concrete steps to improve the standard of English. One of the measures was the revision of the English Language syllabus with substantial strengthening in the teaching of grammar and presentation skills. In order to ensure that our teachers are prepared for this renewed emphasis on the teaching of grammar, a 60-hour course was customized for all teachers of English and will be run over this year and the next.
To provide Singaporeans with a guide on the use of standard English, MOE has also collaborated with the SEAMEO Regional Language Centre on a handbook of grammar that focuses on the correct use of English to address common errors which occur in local usage. This series of handbooks, Grammar Matters, is based on actual examples of errors in English that Singaporeans make.
The user-friendly approach the writers have taken will help the reader be more aware of typical errors in English usage in Singapore. This book will be useful for students, teachers, parents and members of the public. I hope that by using this book, they will be able to improve their own English usage, and also help their friends and colleagues to improve.
I would like to commend the SEAMEO Regional Language Centre for its efforts in publishing this book. The launch of this series of books supports the efforts of the Speak Good English Movement announced by Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong on 29 August last year. It now gives me great pleasure to officially launch the book, Grammar Matters.

VAN-TASTIC
I renovated a retro caravan for less than £600 – it's made our holidays so much cheaper
Hope Brotherton
Published: 11:35 ET, Dec 6 2022
Updated: 9:41 ET, Dec 16 2022
A MAN revealed how he spent just £600 converting an old caravan - and it has been a hit with both his family and other holidaymakers.
Lee Davey, 52, and his wife Helen, bought their retro caravan in 2017 for £400, and spent just over one year restoring the van to its former glory.

Father and son team, Lee and Charlie, converted the retro caravan to its former glory with just £600Credit: Lee Davey
The couple were looking to make their camping holidays more comfortable by purchasing a caravan.
They went to the Caravan and Motorhome show where they spoke to several experts about all the different makes and models on the market.
After doing some research, Lee fell in love with a 1960s Bailey caravan that had spent 20 years languishing in a hedge just one mile away from the factory where it was originally made.
Lee from Shaftesbury, Dorset, said: "Not only had it been stuck in the hedge, but there was a tree branch sticking out of the roof too - we just knew it needed to be saved."
"I'm OK with stuff like that [DIY], but I'd never converted a van before, so I watched YouTube tutorials and was given a user's manual by the Bailey factory to make sure I was renovating the van correctly.
"When we started looking at painting the body, we worried that it would need to be spray painted, which would cost thousands, but we were so relieved to find out it only needed a few coats of enamel paint because that's how it had been originally painted."
They then transformed the van - which they've fondly named Gladys - into the perfect getaway with two beds, a kitchen and a toilet.
The paint cost Lee £100 - the most expensive part of the refurb.

Lee also snapped up a flexible solar panel for £60, floor and wallboards from a local builder's merchants, and Lee's daughter Poppy found funky lino offcuts and lampshades on eBay.
The family didn't give themselves a deadline for the renovation and just used "any spare time" they had doing it up as family.
Lee said: "I didn't want to add any time pressure onto the project, and fall out of love with the caravan and what we were doing as a family."
He added that the addition of solar panels was to help keep their future holidays cheap, citing the current cost of living crisis.

Charlie and Lee finished the conversion in 2018 and soon set off on a 500-mile round-trip to France to follow in their family's footsteps after being inspired by Charlie's history classes on WWII at school.
Their entire trip cost £500, including return tickets on the ferry, food, and activities.
Lee said: "It was just myself and Charlie on that trip, but we have been away as a family of four and the caravan can get quite cosy."
Not only did the family manage to renovate the caravan on a tight budget, but they've also saved cash on their holidays too.
Lee added: "Because our campervan is self-sufficient, we pay lower site fees and have been able to pitch up in the UK for as little as £8 a night for four people. You just can't beat that price."
They also save money by making meals in their caravan where they can dine with a view.
While the family has no firm holiday plans for next year, now they have Gladys their next adventure is just around the corner.
They aren't the first to save money by doing this - another couple converted an old DHL van into a mini home for just £2,000 using ping pong tables and climbing walls which is now worth £15,000.
And a third couple spent lockdown converting a battered old van into a dream holiday home - with a full kitchen, laundry area and huge bed.
If you are interested in finding out more about touring around the UK and beyond in your own 'van, and even purchasing your own vehicle, the Caravan, Motorhome & Holiday Show is taking place at Manchester Central, 12-15 January 2023. Tickets are free – all you have to do is pay a £1.95 booking fee.

Q: Batch file to pings an IP continuously and play alert beep on 2 or more ping losses I am trying to create a Batch file/ cmd file to ping a given IP continuously (ping 8.8.8.8 -t) along with functions
1.if ping fails for more than "X" times - start a continuous beep alert
2.if ping kicks back to success - stop the beep alert
I have seen some batch files that change color of screen according to the ping success/failure, is it possible to call an audio alert on fail and stop it on success.

After another 2%+ decline for US equity markets yesterday, the total return picture across the equity asset space is getting uglier and uglier. Below is a snapshot of our key ETF matrix that highlights total returns across asset classes on a month-to-date, quarter-to-date, and year-to-date basis.
Month-to-date, every major US index ETF is down more than 7%, with small-caps down 10%. Quarter-to-date, the S&P 500 (SPY) is down 12%, while it's down 3% year-to-date. The small-cap Russell 2,000 (IWM) is down a whopping 18.4% quarter-to-date, and it's down 9% year-to-date.
Looking at US sectors, Financials (XLF) is down 11% already in December alone, leaving the sector down 13% both quarter-to-date and year-to-date. Every other sector except Utilities (XLU) is down 5% or more in December. While international equity markets are underperforming US equities quite dramatically on a year-to-date basis, you'll notice that many areas of the world are handily outperforming the US in December. The emerging markets ETF (EEM) is down about half the amount that SPY is down month-to-date.
Commodities — outside of natural gas — have been holding up better than equities in December as well. The broad commodities ETF (DBC) is down just 13 bps this month, while gold (GLD) and silver (SLV) are both in the green. Treasuries have also caught a bid as equities have gotten pummeled. The 20+ year Treasury ETF (TLT) is up 3.57% already in December, and it's up 2.33% quarter-to-date.

          vice chancellor
          news

UC Irvine welcomes David Bailey, vice chancellor for health sciences and interim dean of the UC San Diego School of Medicine, as the new vice chancellor for health affairs at UCI, starting April 1.
As vice chancellor, Bailey will oversee the UCI Medical Center, the UCI faculty physician practice and the UCI College of Health Sciences. In addition to serving as vice chancellor, Bailey will also be the dean of the UCI School of Medicine.
According to the Orange County Register, Bailey's position was created after the chief executive of UCI Medical Center, Ralph Cygan, resigned due to a crisis caused by misrepresentations to transplant patients and regulators in UCI's liver transplant program in early 2006. Chancellor Michael Drake hopes that Bailey's new dual position of overseeing the medical school and the hospital will provide a new level of accountability to patients and the public.
Bailey received his bachelor in science degree in chemistry with high distinction from Indiana University in 1967 and earned his medical degree from Yale University in 1973. By 1977, he had completed his postgraduate training from Yale and moved to UCSD, where he has been for 14 years.
During his time at UCSD, Bailey has served as professor of pathology, director of clinical laboratories, division head, vice chairman of the Department of Pathology, deputy vice chancellor for health sciences and both interim vice chancellor and dean for the School of Medicine.
Along with the various positions he has held, Bailey conducts research at UCSD in clinical toxicology and the pharmacology of psychoactive drugs. In some of his work Bailey has investigated the binding of cocaine and its analogs to human tissues as well as studying the epidemiology of overdose and abuse of numerous drugs. He has published many papers regarding these studies and has been distinguished by the Institute for Scientific Information as one of the world's 10 most cited authors in forensic science. Not only has he been featured on various 'Who's Who' lists, but he has also been president of the California Association of Toxicologists and president of the Academy of Clinical Laboratory Physicians and Scientists, which honored him with the Gerald T. Evans award.
'My 14 years as department chairman have helped me appreciate the importance of departmental governance, and my years as professor have enabled me to value the importance of faculty 'shared governance' inherent in the UC system,' Bailey said.
UCI's School of Medicine is among the top 50 in the nation for research funding and includes one Nobel Prize winner, four members of the Institute of Medicine and five National Academy of Science Members. With such a background, Bailey is eager to work with the medical school's faculty, staff and students.

Hurricane lashes Mexico's Baja, new storms form in Atlantic
by: IGNACIO MARTÍNEZ DE JESÚS, Associated Press
Posted: Aug 20, 2020 / 11:25 AM EDT / Updated: Aug 20, 2020 / 02:15 PM EDT
CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico (AP) — Hurricane Genevieve weakened to a tropical storm on Thursday after lashing Mexico's Los Cabos tourist resorts with hurricane-force gusts and heavy rains. And two new tropical depressions formed in the Atlantic Basin — both on potential tracks toward the United States.
Genevieve had a been a powerful Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130 mph (215 kph) on Tuesday, but weakened as it pushed past the Los Cabos region, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.
The center said the hurricane was expected to stay out in the Pacific while moving northwestward along the Baja coast and weakening Thursday and Friday. But it was raking the shore with powerful winds and up to 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters) of rain, creating the potential for dangerous flooding.
High surf had already claimed two lives in the area. Police in Cabo San Lucas said a 15-year-girl was trapped by a large wave and an adult tried to save her Tuesday. Both died.
The hurricane center said Genevieve had maximum sustained winds of 70 mph (115 kph) at midday Thursday and it was centered about 145 miles (235 kilometers) west-northwest of the southern tip of the Baja peninsula. It was moving to the northwest at 12 mph (19 kph).
The storm knocked out power and phone service to a large part of the Los Cabos area, flooded flooded streets in poor neighborhoods and toppled palms in the tourist zone. San Jose del Cabo Mayor Marmida Casto said about 800 people had gone to shelters, where distancing measures were in place due to COVID-19.
Baja California Sur state officials said 15,000 foreign tourists were in the state, most in the Los Cabos region, which earlier had almost been emptied of visitors by pandemic restrictions.
Meanwhile, two new tropical depressions formed Thursday in the Atlantic Basin, and tropical storm watches were posted for several Caribbean islands and parts of Honduras.
The Hurrican Center said Tropical Depression 13 was likely to become a tropical storm later Thursday and then skirt the Leeward Islands, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Cuba. The early, still uncertain track showed it potentially reaching Florida by Monday as a hurricane.
On Thursday, it was centered about 700 miles (1,120 kilometers) east of the northern Leeward Islands with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph (55 kph) and it was headed briskly to the west-northwest at 21 mph (33 kph).
Tropical Depression 14 was forecast to graze the Atlantic coast of Honduras, then curve across Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and potentially head for Texas or Louisiana coast as a tropical storm by next week, though the track and force that far out remained highly uncertain.
On Thursday, it was centered about 210 miles (375 kilometers) east of Cabo Gracias a Dios on the Honduras-Nicaragua border, with maximum sustained winds of 35 mph (55 kph). It was headed west at 18 mph (30 kph).

Undercover pigeons, and other stories
How much do you know about pre-post communications? Here's a short history.
The astonishing ability of homing pigeons to find their way back to base from pretty much anywhere has been used for thousands of years. By 1167 there was a regular pigeon post service between Baghdad and Syria; the founder of Reuters used pigeons to carry news between Brussels and Aachen in 1860; and in 1897 the first airmail stamps were issued for the Pigeon-Gram service between Newton, New Zealand and Great Barrier Island.
Perhaps their most famous work, though, has been in carrying messages across enemy lines during wartime. In the First World War a French pigeon received the Croix de Guerre for her brave service, and in the Second, 32 pigeons received the PDSA's Dickin Medal for their outstanding efforts. In one instance boxes of pigeons were dropped by parachute in the Netherlands and France from where they returned to London HQ with vital information from local resistance agents. Operation Source Columbia proved very effective.
After the war the Pigeon Sub-Committee was closed down, but the CIA continued tests using animals as intelligence aids. Dolphins, ravens, cats and dogs were co-opted, as well as pigeons. Recently, de-classified Cold War documents have revealed details of secret pigeon photography missions over the Soviet Union. The pigeon was equipped with a harness weighing 5g and a camera weighing 35g. The camera could take 140 shots (presumably automatically). Testing during the 1970s showed clear photographs of a US shipyard and in 1976 a Leningrad submarine base was chosen as a target – whether the operation was carried out or not is, sadly, still classified.
If you have classified pigeon epistles, confidential dolphin details or just vital information you need to keep safe, our ultra-secure deep storage facility held within expertly converted Second World War munitions storage tunnels in the West Country could be exactly what you are looking for.

Benzema could face trial over sextape allegations
Paris - Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema may be facing a criminal trial after France's highest court of appeal on Monday dismissed his appeal challenging the legality of a blackmail investigation over a sextape featuring fellow footballer Mathieu Valbuena.
The court found that the investigative methods used in the case, in which Benzema is alleged to have colluded in blackmailing Valbuena, were within the law.
Benzema and Valbuena were both in the French national team at the time of the attempted blackmail.
In June 2015, Valbuena, who now plays for Greek club Olympiakos, filed a complaint, claiming he was the victim of an attempted blackmail after receiving a call informing him of the existence of a sextape in which he appeared.
Investigators suspect 31-year-old Benzema of acting as an intermediary between the presumed blackmailers - including one of his childhood friends - and Valbuena.
Benzema, indicted for "complicity in attempted blackmail", challenged the investigation methods of a police officer who intervened undercover.
His legal team claimed the police used dishonest methods by posing as a friend of Valbuena in a telephone conversation with one of the accused.
The court, however, ruled on Monday that there had been no "breach of fairness", overruling an opinion made in 2017.
There is no further appeal permitted which means the file will return to the office of the investigating judge in Versailles who will decide on whether or not it will go to trial.
"Obviously, it's a disappointment," Benzema's lawyer Patrice Spinosi told AFP.
"There is something schizophrenic in the fact that the Supreme Court is saying the opposite of what it said two years ago. But Karim Benzema has never feared having to face his judges and explaining why he has nothing to do with the accusation if it goes to trial."
Valbuena's lawyer Frederic Thiriez welcomed the decision, saying it was a victory with broader implications.
"This plenary decision goes far beyond this particular sextape affair," he said. "It allows the police, in the interest of victims, to use their investigative techniques to search for and arrest alleged perpetrators of crimes."
Since the affair broke four years ago neither player has been selected again for the French national team, both missing out on Euro in 2016 when Didier Deschamps' team reached the final on home soil, and the 2018 World Cup which they won in Russia.
This season has proved to be one of the best in Benzema's career with 15 goals and seven assists in 19 games across all competitions for Madrid.

Peeling fresh peaches is a lot easier than you think.
As I mentioned in my last post, finding time to blog has been a lot more difficult ever since I went back to work. There were nights when I planned to write only to spend my energy doing something else.
But we've finally settled into our new normal, and we've established a comfortable weekday routine. I'm hoping that means I can get back into the rhythm of blogging on a regular basis again.
To start, I'm going to share a post I began planning last summer. We were introducing solid foods into Caroline's diet, and I was making homemade baby food by the ton.
Of course, that included peach purée (post coming). But before I could purée anything, I had to peel the peaches.
Start with fresh peaches and give them all a good wash.
Using a sharp paring knife, make a shallow, x-shaped cut into the pointed end of each peach. This will aid in the peeling process later on... Just be careful not to cut too deeply into the flesh of the fruit.
Gently place the peaches into a pot of simmering water, working in batches if necessary. Ideally, you want to use a pot that's deep enough to submerge the peaches completely. If they don't stay submerged, then turn them every now and then so they're heated evenly on all sides.
After about 45 seconds, remove the peaches with tongs or a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl of ice water. This will shock the peaches and stop the cooking process and prevent the peaches from becoming mushy.
When you remove the peaches from the ice bath, you should see that the skin has started to pull away on the scored ends.
Using the back of your paring knife, gently pull at the skin to remove it. It should come off easily, but if it doesn't, then simmer the peaches for a few more seconds, cool them down, and try again.
... and you'll be all set to remove the pits. You can then move ahead with using them in a baking project, grilling the halves for use in a salad, slicing them and freezing them for later... The possibilities are really endless.
What would you do with these fresh peaches once you've peeled them?
After washing your peaches, use a sharp paring knife to make a shallow, x-shaped cut into the pointed end of each peach. Be careful not to cut too deeply into the flesh of the fruit.
Gently place the peaches into a pot of simmering water, working in batches if necessary, and allow to simmer for 45 seconds. If the peaches don't stay submerged, then turn them occasionally so they heated evenly on all sides.
Remove the peaches with a pair of tongs or a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl of ice water.
Once the peaches have cooled completely, remove them from the ice bath. Use the back of your paring knife to gently pull at the skin to remove it.
Plan to use the peaches right away or freeze them for later use.

15 Types of Students You'll Find in Singapore
11 minutes reading time
Adila Shahrin TSL Magazine
Types of Singapore Students
Throughout your years of formal education, I'm sure you've come across different types of students. Their personalities range from those who really annoy you to those who you'd willingly kowtow to. If you've just started life in a new school, then this list would help you spot the types of students you'd meet. Or help you identify the students you might want to stay away from. Either way, it's going to be handy!
(Note: You're one of them too.)
1. The Popular Kids
These teenagers are not Regina George popular. By that, I mean they're not necessarily mean. Ok fine, some of them act like the Singaporean version of The Plastics. But the majority of them are popular because they're somehow friends with everybody.
I'm not even kidding. Every five steps or so, they'll stop to say hi to someone. If you're with them, you would have no choice but to stand awkwardly by as they go through the whole etiquette of social interaction.
You breathe a sigh of relief when they finally say goodbye only to have them repeat the process with another friend they bumped into.
Defining Characteristics: Have 100-1000 likes on their Instagram pictures, Everyone in school is their friend including the bookshop auntie and mee pok uncle.
When do they thrive: Every day.
What to do if you're with them: Try to partake in the conversation as well. Sooner or later, you'll make more friends and before you know it, you've become one of them.
2. The Hot Athletes
It's not hard to spot these people. They're the jocks of the school and damn do they have the looks to make those of the opposite sex droooool.
They're the boys who make every girl's ovaries explode. They're the girls who make every boy do a double take and whisper to their bro-friends "chiobu…". They subsequently become your eyecandy and you subconsciously put in more effort to spot them in school just so your day would feel much better.
Defining Characteristics: Popular choice as an eyecandy, Hot bods.
When do they thrive: During sports season when they're at the peak of their fitness level.
What to do if you're with them: Try not to stare too much or drool in front of them. Just keep it cool and act as normal as possible until you pluck up the courage to ask him/her out.
3. The Mugger
They never fail to make you feel like a crappy student because they're always busy burying their noses in their notes. They rarely accept social invitations, often giving the excuse that there's some big test they need to study for.
Their mugging intensifies when exams are nearing. When that happens, you rarely see them hanging out with their classmates. Their favourite place in school is the library or some ulu studying corner where they can finally be in the zone.
Defining Characteristics: Always with their notes or books, Favourite phrase: "I can't, I need to study."
When do they thrive: When they're not eating or taking a dump, they're on mugger mode
What to do if you're with them: Ask for lots of help with your school work. Muggers are usually very knowledgeable and wouldn't mind lending a hand.
4. The Closet Mugger
They're the ones who slack all day in school and will always jio you for some fun. You thought they're the sort who never bothers to study but how wrong you were.
When you get back test scores, you thought they would fail from all that studying they weren't doing but turns out, they got higher than you. Better still, they topped the class.
What they're like in front of you:
What they're like when you're not looking:
Defining Characteristics: Straight A slacker
When do they thrive: You'll never know…
What to do if you're with them: If you suspect your friend is a closet mugger, just keep quiet. They hate to be exposed but if you ask nicely, they'll share some studying tips.
5. The Fashionista
#ootd #wiwt #ootn #fotd #sotd #fashion #design #makeup
Those are just some of the hashtags that fashion "gurus" commonly use on Instagram. They use all sorts of filters and apps to make their pictures look insta-worthy and then proceed to humbly reply the compliments that they get.
When they're not studying, they're writing reviews on beauty products, clothing lines and fashion week on their blogs. But if you're not into any of those stuff, I suggest you stay away. Mocking their passion would only make you the bad guy.
Defining Characteristics: OOTD shots on Instagram, Blogs about fashion and beauty.
When do they thrive: Whenever they have a new outfit they want to show off.
What to do if you're with them: Ask for fashion advice. Even if you think they're 'step' fashionista, they do have plenty of tips on how to save fashion victims.
6. The 'I'm Going To Fail' But Actually Tops The Class
The extremely annoying top scorer who attempts to empathize with other students by claiming that they're going to fail a test. They're the ones who put on a comforting voice and tell others, "It's okay, I'm going to fail too" but proceeds to top the class and place in the 90th percentile in the cohort.
Just admit it if you didn't find it as difficult as the rest. People would rather have your honest opinion than to have their feelings cheated.
When they top the class, this is me on the outside:
This is me on the inside:
Defining Characteristics: Constantly tops the class
When do they thrive: After every single class test
What to do if you're with them: Breathe in. Breathe out. Take two steps back. Turn around. Walk away.
7. The 'I'm Going To Fail' And Actually Fails Fellow
This applies to most students. As you grow older, the difficulty level of tests and exam papers increases exponentially. You'll find that sometimes, there's no other option but to fail.
If you feel like you're hitting rock-bottom, constantly remind yourself that the only way to go from there is up. If you come under this category, don't ever give up. Work hard and one day, you might become your "I'm Going To Fail" But Actually Tops The Class counterpart.
Defining Characteristics: Forever hoping for a pass only
When do they thrive: Once in a while
What to do if you're with them:
"Ah shit, I failed my Math test."
"Eh you failed? I failed also!"
*high-five*
8. The Troublemaker
Unless you're friends with these people, more often than not, you would want to stay away from them. They've been there, they've done that. They are never afraid to show that they're the true boss so they don't hesitate to talk back to teachers.
Defining Characteristics: Has committed so many offences and obtained so many demerit points, teachers don't bother anymore.
When do they thrive: When the opportunity arises.
What to do if you're with them: Pray that they won't do anything to you.
9. The Overachiever
He sings, he dances, he plays the guitar. He's President of the Student Council, Captain of the Football team, a straight A student and to top it all of, he rakes in 150 hours of CIP.
These teenagers go all out to be at the top of every aspect of their life. You would expect them to at least fail at something but they somehow don't. I seriously wonder what kind of supplements they're taking.
On the outside you're like:
On the inside you're like:
Defining Characteristics: Always a busy bee.
When do they thrive: Every second.
What to do if you're with them: Stay out of their way or else you might ruin their perfectly scheduled timetable.
10. The Complain King and Queen
These people force their misery upon you. Once they open their mouths to utter words of displeasure at everything, you have no choice but to sit through the whole conversation and nod your way through.
Even if you disagree with what they're saying, you can't voice your opinions or else, they'll never stop complaining.
Defining Characteristics: Complains about every. single. thing.
When do they thrive: When its a boring day like during school events
What to do if you're with them: Nod until they stop talking
11. The Extremely Affectionate Couple
When they're not busy PDA-ing in school, they're busy PDA-ing outside of school. They don't mind acting intimately in front of others and they sure don't care what you think. After all, they're in 'love'.
Defining Characteristics: Always together 5eva in school, outside school, on Facebook, on Instagram, on Twitter…basically everywhere…
When do they thrive: They'll be extra affectionate when it's their weeksary, monthsary and anniversary.
What to do if you're with them: Run far, far away before your eyes start burning and all you're left with is a burnt socket.
12. The Jealous Single
It's sure not hard to spot the envious single teenager as they proclaim to the whole world that they'll be "forever alone". Their reaction towards relationships, couples and all that dating crap is simply "I'm forever alone".
They're also the ones who keep tweeting that they're going to grow up to be a cat lady or a comic book store owner. But in reality, they just wish that someone would sweep them off their feet so they can finally get their happily ever after.
Defining Characteristics: Number 1 fan of International Friendship Day, Number 1 hater of Valentines' Day.
When do they thrive: Whenever they see a cute couple.
What to do if you're with them: You can either soothe their aching soul by telling them that their Prince Charming or Cinderella is around the corner or you can tell them to shut up and stop acting like a bitter old lady.
13. The Health Nut
Health Nuts:
It's hard to feel good about yourself when these people constantly shove it in your face that they're eating clean and you're not. They're forever declining your invitation to eat outside, preferring instead to prepare their own organic meal at home.
It's great that you want to take care of your health but stop making other people feel guilty for the choices they make like eating in the canteen because ain't nobody got time to cook.
Defining Characteristics: Brings their own home-cooked organic meals to school.
When do they thrive: When it's time for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
What to do if you're with them: Avoid eating something extremely unhealthy unless you want them to launch into a half hour lecture on why you shouldn't eat fast food.
14. The Future President/CEO of Some Big Shot Company
These people are not super popular or super smart. Even so, they're definitely outstanding in their own ways and the kind of people who will definitely be extremely successful in future.
They know how to play their cards well to get whatever it is that they want. They're also adept in dealing with difficult situations or solving problems. It's like as if they were born to do that.
Defining Characteristics: Charisma is their middle name.
When do they thrive: When they're the leader of some class project, you'll see their true potential.
What to do if you're with them: Befriend them so that in future, you can say "Eh the President is my very good friend!"
15. The Average One
If you're not any of the above, you probably fall under this category. These people get average grades i.e. a C or D and don't excel in anything in particular.
They try not to break the rules but can't help it if the MRT broke down and they reached school late. They try not to piss off the teachers but aim not to be a goody-goody two shoes either. They don't think they're special in any way despite setting countless motivational pictures as their wallpaper like the ones below:
Defining Characteristics: Looks like a normal kid, Gets average grade, Stays out of trouble…you know just average stuff.
When do they thrive: When they finally get above-average grade, everyone will start noticing them.
What to do if you're with them: Be yourself, they're pretty much the only 'normal' people around and they'd accept you for who you are.

This book demonstrates in a sound and practical way, why the traditional philosophy and practice of yoga are highly relevant for good leadership, and how leaders can use yoga to development their leadership capabilities, incorporating the latest findings from neuroscience and psychology. The author comprehensively summarizes his experiences as a consultant, executive coach and yoga teacher. Numerous high-quality videos show how yoga techniques can be executed effectively and directly during day-to-day management. For smart and conscious handling of one's own resources and for forming successful relationships in working life.
Why are the wise and ancient teachings of yoga today so valuable for good leadership? How can leaders use them in their daily business and private life? Classical yoga does not only include physical exercises, but also stimulation towards ethical action as well as meditation. It trains effective self-management and the creation of successful working relationships.
Managers squander their professional success, their health and their happiness if they do not create free space for themselves.
You will recognize this sure: you are constantly in the public eye, crises mode is the norm, you are globally strongly networked – in short, everything demands that you dedicate yourself to the daily business. But for important topics like strategy, innovation, the employees or for yourself you have little to no time. If you accept this as an irreplaceable fact, you will soon be a spent manager.

La La Land handed best picture Oscar in error instead of Moonlight
La La Land is announced the best picture in the biggest gaffe in Oscars history after Warren Beatty is given the wrong envelope.
By Duarte Garrido, Entertainment Correspondent
Monday 6 March 2017 05:47, UK

Moonlight has been awarded the best picture Oscar after La La Land was handed the top gong in error.
The awards ceremony was plunged into chaos after Warren Beatty was given the wrong envelope and appeared to hesitate when he saw the card, before co-presenter Faye Dunaway announced La La Land as the winner.

Producer Jordan Horowitz came forward to inform the cast that Moonlight had indeed won, showing the envelope as proof, after the La La Land crew had already given its acceptance speech.
"This is not a joke," Horowitz said.
"There's a mistake. Moonlight you guys won best picture. Moonlight you won best picture. Moonlight best picture."

Beatty then proceeded to explain the mix-up to the audience, surrounded by the crews of both films on stage.
"I want to tell you what happened I opened the envelope and it said Emma Stone, La La Land and that is why I took
such a long look at Faye and at you," he said.
However, the mystery behind the error deepened when Stone later said she was holding her card the whole time.
"I was holding my best actress in a leading role card the entire time. I don't mean to start stuff but whatever story that was - I have that card," she told reporters backstage.
"So I'm not sure what happened and I really wanted to talk to you guys first."

Accountants from PwC, the firm that counts the 7,000 votes and is in charge of the famed suitcases containing the winning envelopes, later apologised for the blunder.
"We are currently investigating how this could have happened, and deeply regret that this occurred," the firm tweeted.
Envelope keepers Brian Cullinan and Martha Ruiz, who both have identical cases filled with the 24 winning envelopes which they each give out at either side of the stage, were forced to intervene on stage amid the confusion.

Moonlight director Barry Jenkins eventually went on stage to accept the award.
"Very clearly even in my dreams this can't be true. But to hell with it because this is true. It's true, its not fake."
While the La La Land crew exited the stage, Jenkins thanked them, saying: "We have been on the road with these guys and it was so gracious and so generous of them."
Jenkins later said he had "seen two cards", and that he "wanted to see the card and Warren refused to show it to anybody before he showed it to me".
Oscars host Jimmy KImmel looked stunned as the scene played out.
"Well, I don't know what happened," he said. "I blame myself. It's just an awards show... I knew I would screw this show up, I really did... I promise I'll never come back!"
Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres tweeted: "Nothing like live TV". "Congrats to Moonlight! And to La La Land for such a gracious reaction."

— AmyHitchcock (@AmyHitchcockSky) February 27, 2017
Sky's Entertainment Correspondent Katie Spencer, on the red carpet at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty, said: "We are still in shock here. It was the most horrible, bizarre, jaw-dropping end to any Oscars that I've certainly seen.
"Best picture is the big prize of the evening. The one that everyone tunes into. It really overshadows everything that went before it. It is just utterly horrific to watch that unfolding," she explained.
"Very awkward and very embarrassing for the Academy."
Damien Chazelle's celebrated musical, which was up for a record-tying 14 nominations, took home six awards.
Moonlight, with three wins - best supporting actor, best adapted screenplay and best picture - made just over $22m (£17m) in the US box office.

College basketball scandal: Sports agent Christian Dawkins' former boss de-certified
Jeff Greer
The former boss of Christian Dawkins, the ex-travel coach and sports agency employee at the center of the Louisville aspect of the FBI college basketball scandal, gave up his certification with the National Basketball Players Association on Wednesday.
Andy Miller, an influential agent for multiple NBA stars and the president of ASM Sports, will no longer represent players in contract negotiations, ESPN reported citing an NBPA memo.
The NBPA on Thursday said it was "unable to share player memos," and the document has not been made public.
The Miller news is the latest in a string of dominoes to fall since authorities unsealed criminal complaints detailing their investigation into corruption in college basketball recruiting.
Eight men allegedly involved in multiple bribery schemes involving high school prospects and college basketball programs have been indicted in the case.
Dawkins, who coached former Louisville forward Jaylen Johnson's travel team, is alleged to have schemed to pay McDonald's All-American Brian Bowen's father $100,000 in exchange for Bowen signing with an Adidas-affiliated college program and then using Dawkins as his agent and Adidas as his apparel sponsor once he turned professional.
Bowen signed with Louisville but has been held out since late September. The school announced in November that Bowen, a 6-foot-7 forward from Michigan, would not play for the Cards.
Dawkins was indicted on six different charges by a New York grand jury three weeks ago.
Miller's office was reportedly raided by the FBI in relation to the federal investigation.

Q: How will ECMAScript 6 Harmony modules be managed in HTML script tags? I realize this is not yet implemented and so hypothetical.
When ES6 Harmony modules are eventually implemented in modern browsers how will the syntax and implementation handle inline JavaScript? By comparison I can imagine the conceptual distinction that each file is considered a module lending to the idea that an HTML document will have a <script src="..."> tag for each individual module.
However, this seems odd in the browser as it means if you have 50 modules you now have 50 client/server connections. Another problem would be introduced if you concatenated the files or possibly inline several modules in a <script>...</script> tag.
Ultimately this would conflate the global / name spacing problem:
<script>
  var Foo = {};
  var Baz = 1; // Local or Global?
  export default Foo;

  import Foo in 'foo';
  var Bar = {};
  var Baz = 2; // Local or Global?
  export default Bar;
</script>

In CommonJS -> trans-piled or AMD everything is wrapped in a closure. Leading me to believe that when ES6 comes out we will still have to wrap our code:
<script>
  (function() {
    var Foo = {};
    var Baz = 1; // Definitely Local now!
    export default Foo;
  })();

  (function() {
    import Foo in 'foo';
    var Bar = {};
    var Baz = 2; // Definitely Local now!
    export default Bar;
  })();
</script>

How will future implementations of ES6 Harmony modules handle the browser's flat dependency model of concatenated sources?

A: Modules can be concatenated together without issue with the module SomeName { /* module contents here */ } syntax.
EDIT: The module block syntax has been dropped from the spec.  The conclusions of the committee seems to be that  concatenation is a hack to work around a limitation of HTTP 1.  The ultimate solution is to have an HTTP 2 aware server and client so that the client can multiplex its requests and the server can push additional resources to the client (Thanks Andreas!)
As for dealing with module semantics in the browser, a separate <module> tag was introduced for creating individual modules on the page. (Since modules can be resolved asynchronously, they don't match the semantics of inline script elements, hence the need for a new tag).

Q: Facebook "Like" Box html5 code does not work I'm currently trying to use the HTML5 version of the Likebox but it is not working as expected. It doesn't work in local sites, and it also does not show the posts from the page as it should.
Here's the code:
http://jsfiddle.net/qp4qr/1/
Markup:

Javascript code:
(function(d, s, id) {
  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
  js.src = "http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1&appId=136619623172579";
  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));

As you can see, it works ---just fine--- partially on jsfiddle. It does not work in local files and when served from the web it does what it does in jsfiddle which is to be broken.
(And at this point I'm about to blow my top at Facebook).

A: Think you forgot to import Jquery

  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];

Headlight alignment is the most common problem with the MOT and your bike will almost certainly fail if the aim is wrong. On a bike that would otherwise be a pass, most reasonable testers will adjust the light for you, but it's worth playing safe and ensuring that the headlight is correctly aligned before you go. Our simple guide will have you aiming straight in no time.
For most bikes only dipped beam will be tested, so that's what we'll cover here.
To check and set the alignment properly you're going to need a friend, and a ruler or tape measure. Get a friend to sit on the bike to hold is upright, then measure the distance from the ground to the centreline of the bulb.
This is important as different rules apply depending on the bulb height i.e up to 850mm from the ground and ones that are over 850mm from the ground.
Create a mark on a wall or garage door, at the same height as your headlight bulb is from the ground. This line will be called the "horizontal zero percent line". Next, draw a vertical line up from the ground crossing the "horizontal zero percent line" and extending about 300mm passed it. This line is the "vertical zero percent line".
Start with the bike's front tyre touching the vertical zero percent line, then wheel it back just under 4 meters (3.81 meters) away from the wall. Now have a friend sit on the bike in the normal riding position. It's important to ensure that your tyres are correctly inflated as this will affect the reading.
If the centre of your motorbike's headlight bulb is less than 850mm from the ground, then with your bike in the position described above, the top projection of the dipped beam should be between 20mm to 80mm below the horizontal zero percent line.
In this instance, with your bike in the position described above, the top of the dipped beam projection should be between 50mm and 110mm below the horizontal zero percent line. If your bike is within the tolerances then the next step is to check your beams positioning against the vertical zero percent line. If not, adjust your headlight beam until it does fall within tolerance. Most motorcycles have a knob at the back of the headlight unit allowing for easy adjustment.
All UK specification motorcycles should be designed to be ridden on the left hand-hand side of the road. In lighting terms this means that the light from the headlight should not aim to the right, potentially dazzling oncoming vehicles. Most UK bikes will have a headlight that kicks up to left. It is important that this kick-up doesn't start immediately from the vertical zero percent line. To test this MOT technicians will use what is a called a 2% line, but on your wall or garage door, just ensure there is a gap of around 100mm between the vertical zero percent line and the area where your headlight starts to kick up.
If your headlight doesn't have any kick up at all that's ok. If it kicks up to the right, or direct from the vertical zero percent line, then you can use a shroud or a mask to hide this. This should only be a temporary measure, but make sure it doesn't cover too much of the headlight, as it's at the MOT tester's discretion as to whether it unduly reduces the light output from the unit.
Although it might sound complicated, checking your motorcycle headlights for correct alignment is relatively simple. It only takes 10 minutes, and could be the difference between an MOT pass or a failure. To help you check yours at home, we've add an MOT diagram below to show you just what your light output should be.
