Top 10 TV Lawyers You'd Want To Represent You
The 10 Most Exciting Upcoming Disney Live Action Remakes
Ben Sherlock
TV shows are littered with terrible attorneys who would almost definitely lose your case for you. There's Lionel Hutz, who can barely string a defense together, or Barry Zuckerkorn, who doesn't know what is and isn't a law and often gets two laws confused – for example, he doesn't think that a husband and wife can be tried for the same crime when they definitely, definitely can. But there are also plenty of really great lawyers on TV who are good at their jobs. Here are 10 TV lawyers that we wish we could hire in real life to fight our cases for us.
10. Matt Murdock
Matt Murdock, otherwise known as the Man Without Fear or the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, has a history of being followed around by unlawfulness. When he was just a kid, his father who was a boxer was killed for refusing to throw a fight in the ring. That spurred him on to get a law degree and go into business with his college buddy Foggy Nelson. Steven S. DeKnight, who was the showrunner of the premiere Netflix Marvel series in its first season, said of the character's "grey" moral compass, "He's a lawyer by day, and he's taken this oath. But every night, he breaks that oath and goes out and does very violent things." You see, every night, Murdock puts on a red mask and runs around Hell's Kitchen, dispatching bad guys as the superhero Daredevil. And not only that – as if that wasn't impressive enough – he does it all while blind! He can't see a thing and yet he can see the line between right and wrong more clearly than anyone else in New York. And he can also see Bullseye or the Hand coming like no one else can. He's a pretty amazing dude, all things considered.
9. Blue Haired Lawyer
The Blue Haired Lawyer is the morally bankrupt lawyer who represents all the bad guys in The Simpsons. He represents Mr. Burns and the Disney corporation, among others. He is one of the many, many, many characters on the show who is voiced by Dan Castellaneta, the man of a million voices. His ethics aren't all that fantastic, but if he's managed to keep the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant open for this long, then surely he must be doing something right. The animation team initially based this character's appearance on the actor Charles Lane, although his demeanor and his character traits and his personality are based on Roy Cohn, the top counsel for Joe McCarthy during the Communist witch hunts, so he actually has a very dark backstory. Still, his character is played for laughs in the show, and despite what a terrible and deplorable human being he might be, if you needed a lawyer to get you out of a jam, he would probably be the best guy in Springfield for the job. I mean, your only alternative is Lionel Hutz, and he has an office in a strip mall and barely understands what's going on half the time.
8. Jeff Winger
Jeff Winger had a very successful career as a hotshot defense attorney working for the law firm Hamish, Hamish, and Hamlin. He specialized in defending people who were accused of 'cool' crimes, like juvenile and traffic offenses. However, it was found that Jeff's degree did not in fact come from the prestigious Columbia University, but from a "less than legitimate" and "better than real" school in the country of Colombia. So, the bar association basically tells him that if he doesn't get a real degree from a real university, they will have to disbar him. Luckily, Jeff had successfully defended a college professor named Ian Duncan from a DUI while he was still enjoying a fraudulent career in law practice by comparing the prosecution to 9/11, which was certainly an interesting approach. Still, it got him off, so Duncan owed Jeff a favor and he happened to be a professor at Greendale Community College where he could get him in as a student and helped him graduate quickly – and that's where we meet him in the pilot episode of Community. If it wasn't for all the formalities like needing a degree to practice law, Jeff Winger would be a great attorney.
7. Arnie Becker
There was a scene in an episode of Seinfeld where Jerry invites George up to stay in Los Angeles with him while he's up there to appear in a guest spot on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno alongside George Wendt from Cheers – and Corbin Bernsen from L.A. Law. George approaches Bernsen and offers him a case to use on the show for his character Arnie Becker that had happened to him in real life where he accidentally killed his girlfriend's cat and then didn't want to pay for another one, which she demanded. Bernsen tells Leno, "People are always coming up to me trying to give me a great case for L.A. Law. Just a few seconds ago, right here, right outside in the hallway, this nut, some sick nut, comes up to me and says he's supposed to watch this girl's cat while she's away out of town. Anyway, he forgets to feed the cat, the cat dies, starves to death, he kills the cat, refuses to get her a new one, won't give her any money, won't pay her – and he wants Arnie Becker to represent him! Nice guy." Then he sarcastically says, "Yeah, that'd make a great case for L.A. Law. Thanks a lot." Arnie Becker was a divorce lawyer who would call "dibs" on someone's office instead of saying goodbye to them as they passed away. He was kind of an asshole, but he was a great lawyer.
6. Jack McCoy
We now know Sam Waterston as Sol from the Netflix comedy series Grace and Frankie, but he spent a very large chunk of his career playing the brilliant attorney Jack McCoy. He played Jack McCoy on Law and Order for a whopping sixteen seasons, so he basically became the poster boy for law practice on the small screen. It ended up earning the guy a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Despite being a fictional character living in a fictional TV version of New York and practicing law in a fictional TV version of the New York court system, Jack McCoy was nevertheless named a "Living Landmark" by the New York Landmarks Conservancy. He was initially the Executive Assistant District Attorney before finally being appointed to the role of District Attorney later on in his career. Entertainment Weekly's TV critic Ken Tucker was always a fan of Jack McCoy, naming him the finest and most passionate attorney on the show. He said that the character rode "herd over a couple of stubborn young bucks – assistant DAs Mike Cutter (Linus Roache) and Connie Rubirosa (Alana de la Garza) – McCoy argues, bellows orders, and croaks with outrage when his charges disobey his legal advice." This is a guy who really cares.
5. Bob Loblaw
This lawyer hired by the Bluth family in Arrested Development is the second one that they hire after the colossal disappointment of Barry Zuckerkorn, whose lack of knowledge about the law and shady doings and serious legal missteps land them in a lot more trouble than they needed to be in. His name, Bob Loblaw, is a play on words. It's a tongue twister that sounds a little like "blah blah blah," which is exactly what legal jargon sounds like to a layperson. The show would further this tongue twister with newspaper headlines like "Bob Loblaw Lobs Law Bomb" and "Bob Loblaw Launches Law Blog." Those were the kind of jokes that the writers would pepper in and most viewers wouldn't even notice. Loblaw's slogan on his TV commercials is: "Why should you go to jail for a crime someone else noticed?" The latest season of the show made a reference to the recent allegations made against the actor who plays Bob Loblaw, Scott Baio, with a meta joke in which Gob said, "I guess he likes them young." Yikes! A lot of shows have had to deal with allegations made against cast members during the #MeToo movement, but few of them take it on the nose quite this much.
4. Jackie Chiles
Cosmo Kramer's lawyer Jackie Chiles, played brilliantly by Phil Morris, was introduced during the seventh season of Seinfeld in a storyline that parodied the Liebeck v. McDonald's Restaurants hot coffee lawsuit. Jackie himself as a character is a spot on parody of O.J. Simpson's lawyer Johnnie Cochran. They're both black, they both wear glasses, they both have mustaches, they both speak very quickly with wide ranging vocabularies, and they're both brilliant lawyers. There were some specific parodies of the O.J. Simpson trial ("A bra's got to fit right up against a person's skin…like a glove!"), but Jackie was more of a caricature who was used in legal matters. The joke was always that he was a great lawyer, but Kramer's idiocy would get in the way and cause "the most public yet of my many humiliations." Jackie even represented Jerry, Elaine, George, and Kramer during their trial in the series finale that ultimately ended in them each receiving a prison sentence. At one point, Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David were in talks with Phil Morris to give the character his own spin-off series, but they never made a pilot or even brought the proposal to the executives at NBC who could've made it happen, which is sad, because he's such a fantastic character and a whole show about him and his associates is just brimming with potential.
3. Ally McBeal
In her personal life, Ally McBeal was always a little bit wacko. She would experience hallucinatory visions of a dancing baby that would remind her that she won't remain fertile for much longer and of a bunch of men she had slept with. She would also often hear songs in her head and was always desperate to fall in love and searching high and low for her one true soulmate. But never mind all of that, because in her professional life, she was always a terrific lawyer. She went to Harvard Law School and took on many challenging cases throughout her career. She has been criticized as a poor role model for women and compared to Scarlett O'Hara from Gone with the Wind. Entertainment Weekly called her a "fairy tale princess" who bears "about as much resemblance to real women as Barbie and Skipper." A cover story in a 1998 edition of Time magazine compared Ally McBeal to many feminist icons, including Susan B. Anthony, Betty Friedan, and Gloria Steinem, and posed the question, "Is Feminism Dead?" But they've got her all wrong. Surely feminism would give Ally McBeal the freedom to be promiscuous and sleep around and be a bit of airhead.
2. Marshall Eriksen
As a lawyer, Marshall Eriksen from How I Met Your Mother denounced the idea of using his law practice for financial gain or to sell out to big corporations. Instead, when he was putting himself through law school, he was driven by a motivation to save the environment and use his powers to speak up for the little guy who doesn't have a voice. And this drove him to actually pass the bar exam and graduate from law school and become qualified to practice law, which was awesome. But then, as his marriage and his rent and his baby all started costing a lot of money, he eventually did have to sell out and become a corporate lawyer with his environmentalist ambitions on the backburner. Still, by the end of the series' run in its ninth season, he would be a judge for the state of New York. He would be fighting the good fight, finally! But no matter what case he was fighting or what reasons he had for fighting it, Marshall was always a fantastic lawyer. He has a B.A. degree from Wesleyan University and a Juris Doctor qualification from Columbia University Law School, which are some impressive stats.
1. Saul Goodman
As one of Saul's top clients Jesse Pinkman once said, "When the going gets tough, you don't want a criminal lawyer. You want a criminal lawyer." We got to know Saul Goodman as a lawyer who had completely sold out his belief in right and wrong throughout the run of Breaking Bad, but now that we've gotten to see the earlier days of his career in the prequel spin-off series Better Call Saul, we know that he was once a wayward guy with strict morals named Jimmy McGill. Okay, he would sometimes fabricate evidence and bend the rules in order to secure his clients' freedom, but on the whole, he was a good guy. He would later go on to represent drug kingpins and murderers and hitmen. He has a ton of contacts in the seedy criminal underworld, like crime scene cleaners and assassins, to help out his clients. Whatever happens between the events of Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad, Saul has never stopped being a terrific lawyer who would put himself on the line for the sake of his clients. The cops know him as a clown, but that's just because they're frustrated with how smart he is and how hard he makes their jobs because of it.

Richard Gibson started his life in Western Pennsylvania, on the outskirts of Pittsburgh. He spent part of his childhood in Idaho Falls, Idaho before returning to make his home not once but twice with an interlude in Philadelphia. Living in Pittsburgh allowed Rich to enjoy the mountains and rivers and likes, not just of Western Pennsylvania but also of West Virginia, where wild and wonderful was a personal motto, not just a state slogan.
Gibson never met a mountain he didn't want to climb up or ski down, a river, stream or lake he didn't want to paddle or raft, he never met a trail he didn't want to hike and enjoyed traveling across the country with his wife, Kieren "Kerry" Duffy-Gibson, exploring the next handhold and foothold, bike trail, cave and cove. He also ran half-marathons, competed in the Senior Games and was occasionally known to stand still long enough to cast a line or wave a Terrible Towel. He turned his love of the outdoors into a role volunteering for the Sierra Club. He spent a life in service to others working as a case manager and administrator for Social Security and gave his time to the Red Cross and as a mentor for the Fast Start Program at his alma mater, Penn State.
Gibson matched his adventurous spirit to an off-kilter sense of humor and is praised for being a co-conspirator in avoiding his mom's cooking. True to character, he asked for a Viking funeral in his beloved kayak in the waterways of the state he loved as a boy and where he returned to spend what were to be his golden years. Brain cancer put a tarnish on his retirement, but he remained sharp and witty, reading, ever learning while indulging in his favorite mocha lattes.
He is missed and fondly remembered not just by his wife, Kieren, but also by his sister Cheryl (Randy) Sorensen and their daughter Tamara, and his sister Allison Gibson, as well as extended family, colleagues and friends.

I've tried reading it with :
df = pd.read_csv('test.csv', na_filter=False)
print(df)

as well as with:
df = pd.read_csv('test.csv', keep_default_na=False, skip_blank_spaces=True)
print(df)

Both times, I get the Output:
colA   colB  colC     colD    colE    colF

where the null value is printed as blank space.
The desired output in the dataframe is:

Rohingya activist held after Facebook post
UN Special Rapporteur calls for release of activist who posted photo from clashes between Rohingya and security forces.
The arrest of the activist coincides with UN human right envoy's visit in Rakhine state [Reuters]
An activist has been arrested in Myanmar after posting photos on Facebook from violent clashes between displaced Muslims and security forces in country's restive state of Rakhine, police and an activist have said.
It was not immediately clear what charges Than Shwe, a 29-year-old Rohingya Muslim, would face.
A police officer who refused to give his name because he was not authorised to speak to the media said on Wednesday that the man was trying to cause trouble during a visit by UN special rapporteur on human rights.
Tomas Ojea Quintana was touring the region after the deadly clashes.
Quintana has urged the state government to release the activist, Thailand based The Irrawaddy newsmagazine reported.
Aung Win, a well-known Rohingya activist said said that Than Shwe's wife called Quintana on Tuesday and told him that her husband had been detained.
"He [Quintana] told our community leaders that he has already told the government to release all people who have been detained, included Than Shwe," said Aung Win, according to the Thailand based newsmagazine.
At least one person was killed and around 10 injured after the clash in a camp for dispossessed Rohingya Muslims last Friday, in the latest violence in Rakhine state, the United Nations refugee agency UNHCR said.
Police torture
The most recent unrest occurred after the body of a fisherman was found in a creek near Ohn Taw Gyi camp, said Rakhine state spokesman Win Myaing, who called it a drowning.
But rumors quickly spread that the man had been beaten to death by police.
"He was bleeding from both ears. It looked like he had been smashed in the face by a rifle butt, all his teeth were gone," said Aung Win, who saw the body before burial.
"This wasn't a drowning. He was pretty clearly beaten and tortured."
A dispute over the death and custody of the body sparked several riots, which were broken up by police who fired first into the air and then into the crowd, Win Myaing said.
Than Shwe, who works for an organisation that delivers food and supplies to camps for Rohingya Muslims, was accused of posting images of the dead and injured online, Aung Win said.
Twenty officers went to his home at Monday and brought him to the police station, he said.
The United Nations has called for dialogue following the latest unrest.
"UNHCR is reiterating its call for peaceful dialogue and confidence-building between the [internally displaced persons] and government," spokesman Adrian Edwards said in Geneva.
Myanmar, a predominantly Buddhist nation that only recently emerged from decades of isolation and military rule, has been wracked by sectarian violence in the last year with more than 250 people killed and 140,000 others displaced.


Have you been wondering what constitutes the future of brand bidding in PPC? What are the trends that the search engine marketers will capitalize on? The Search Monitor, as an ad monitoring platform with enough reach has a lot of access to performance data on brand bidding. Lately, it was seen that the top PPC performers are defending their brand images while simultaneously bidding on the brand searches of others. There are many marketers who pay little attention to their brand searches and are missing out on the opportunities to bid on the terms of the competitors. Read on the concerns of this article to know more on the future of brand protection and the vital trends in brand bidding.
Agencies will include brand bidding: Experts predict that brand bidding will soon become one of the greatest optimization tools. Agencies will use brand bidding to enhance client campaign performance, boost their business development and also increase retention. You can see an agency using brand bidding to boost the CPC or cost per click of their company. There will be a drastic growth of brand optimization skills, especially when you pitch those stronger brands.
Regulated industries check beyond SERP: There has been seen an uptick in demand for content monitoring. Content monitoring includes monitoring of the landing pages, the blogs, websites and emails based on the rules that have been created by the owner of the brand. The finance industry and pharmaceutical have to follow marketing rules from the government. The FTC now needs disclaimers on blog and review sites which promote retail products.
URL hijacking will have an impact: URL hijacking or direct linking is a kind of brand bidding where an advertiser uses the URL as their display URL. Some such common offenders are the phishing sites who want to hijack your traffic and slip by the editorial review of the engine. If you're facing URL hijacking, you will see your ads get replaced by the hijacker's ads which hugely impact your optimization efforts. Therefore, search engines might as well stop an activity before verification.
All the above mentioned tips will safeguard your brand and bid effectively on the others. You may even check out some keyword selection, effective techniques of bidding, legal options and go through some case studies to know more on this.

Q: Javascript - inherit parent function from different js file I am running into an issue with inheritance in Javascript.
Child function inheriting parent function through prototype works when I have both parent and child functions in same js file.
Parent function:
var BaseFunction = function  (params) {
}

Child function:
ChildFunction.prototype = new BaseFunction();
ChildFunction.prototype.constructor = ChildFunction;

var ChildFunction = function (params) {
    BaseFunction.call(this, params);
}

If I move all the child related code to a different js file, it is complaining BaseFunction is not defined. So, I changed it to below. Now, it is ending up as undefined.
ChildFunction.prototype = new window['BaseFunction']();

Wondering if inheriting a function from another file is possible? Greatly appreciate if you can share an example or point me to some article online.
Thanks

Q: doubt in proving that an abelian group of order 35 is cyclic. Note-This is not a duplicate, I do not need answer to the whole question but I am looking for a small explanation.
First thing is that after reading the question I am having a doubt.
and then I cannnot understand some part of a proof.
I was asked that given an abelian group $G$ of order $35$ and every element of $G$ satisfies the equation $x^{35}=e$.Prove that $G$ is cyclic.
Doubt in the Question
What is the necessity of giving that every element of $G$ satisfies the equation $x^{35}=e$.Isn't is obvious.
if $x \in G$ implies that if $|x|=m$ then $m|35$ hence it  is definitely true that $x^{35}=e$ for every element $x\in G$
Coming to the Part which I couldn't understand.I have written it in bold
I referred to a solution which is like this...
Proof-a nonidentity element of $G$ must
have order $5, 7$ or $35$. We may assume that $G$ has no element of
order 35. Since $34$ is not a multiple of $ \phi \left(5\right) = 4,$ not all of the
nonidentity elements can have order $5$. Similarly, not all of them
can have order $7$. So, $G$ has elements of orders both $5$ and $7$. Say,
$|a| = 5$ and $|b| = 7.$ Then, since $\left(ab\right)^5 = b^5 \neq e$ and
$\left(ab\right)^7 = a^7= a^2 \neq e,$ we must have $|ab| = 35,$
 a contradiction.
Please give me the explanation for that statement.That is enough to help me
Thanks

A: Suppose all non identity elements have order $5$, and consider the sets $X_a=\bigl\{a, a^2,a^3,a^4\bigr\}$ for all $a\in G$, $a\ne e$.  Once you've removed the duplicates, these sets make up a partition of $G\setminus\{e\}$, so $\;34=\bigl|\mkern1mu G\setminus\{e\}\mkern1mu\bigr|$ is a multiple of $4$. Contradiction.

A: Yes, the condition $x^{35}=e$ is redundant by Lagrange's theorem.
The powers of any element of order $5$ form a subgroup of order $5$, which includes the identity and 4 other elements, all of which have order $5$. It is easy to see that for the 34 non-identity elements, all those of order $5$ can only be in one of these subgroups (because when an element is in a subgroup so are all its powers, essentially). So if all the non-identity elements had order $5$, they'd split 34 into equal sets of size $4$, which is impossible since $4 \not\mid 34$. Similarly, $6 \not\mid 34$, so they can't split into subgroups that all have order $7$.

Travel Centers of America is off from exit 5 on Interstate 390. In this is a hotel (Days Inn) a restaurant (Buck Horn), gas station- small store and semi truck parking. Its like a big truck stop. In fact it used to be called Truck Stop.The restaurant is open 24 hours 7 days a week.. I have gone here many a times after going out for a few drinks--- and had breakfast or dinner at 2 AM... its really the only place that you can get a good meal at all times of the day. The food is ok... Its cheap- I especially like the breakfast buffet.. and the burgers are great too. The workers are good-- The service is fast! We have never had to wait long for any meal.. even when they are busy. You can get a sirloin steak and baby back ribs with a side dish for $11.99-- now its not as good as Roadhhouse but it is good.The hotels are cheap and clean-- there is parking out front of each room- I guess its a motel... I haven't stayed in one in years-- but it was ok ... there are not many hotels in Dansville. This gas station is one of the cheapest in town- I always get gas here-- They have recently switched to prepay only due to drive-offs.If you're looking for a place to grab some food at 2 am-- pop in here!
Minnehan's is a great place to go for the day to have fun-- and eat too. I had my daughters birthday party here last year. Cost was great and the kids had so much fun-They have batting cages, mini golf, race car and tracks (2 of them, 1 for older kids and adults, and 1 for little kids), bumper cars- this is all outside.. Inside they have all kinds of games that take tokens, a big ball pit and play area. They also have a restaurant-- with ice cream, pizza, burgers, wings, etc.The cost to me per kid was $12-- and they got to choose 2 outside activities and the ball pit and play area... plus pizza and pop.. This was a heck of a deal.I rode the race cars and the bumper cars--- what a great time..the only problem I had was they didn't have enough workers working so some kids had to wait to do the small cars while the others did the big cars.I have taken my daughter back several times since then- Its a cheap way to have a fun filled family day!
Outlook Verizon was the first place I went to check out new cell phones a few months back. I was so not impressed. There was only 1 person working. There were 3 people ahead of me. I watched this man work and the whole time I thought-- Man is he unprofessional and I got the idea he really did not know what he was talking about- So up came my turn- I was in a jam and needed to buy 2 phones and take them with me that night- I was going on a shopping trip and needed them by the next day. I asked several questions-- I didn't get too many answers.. and the answers I got were incorrect. Luckily I had already done my research and knew Verizon was the way to go.When it came time to talk about the phones they had to offer- I became totally disgusted and left. Phoneless! Sure they had a great selection of cell phones on the walls--- and then there was pricing with the phones-- but did the prices match what he was trying to sell me? NO.. I finally agreed on 2 same phones and said I want to take these tonight- Problem... they did not have any in stock--- They would be in probably in 3 days! So I asked which phones did they have in stock- No 2 phones the same??How can you be a cell phone dealer with no phones in the stores??At this time I said thank you but I'll check out the place in Geneseo.I would not recommend this dealer- They are very unprofessional from their attire, to their manners.
I love a great fish fry- My family tends to go out at least 2 Fridays out of the month for fish fries. We happened on Java Jungle when the Moose club was full. It was the first time I had ever eaten there- The decor was cute-- They have jungle theme animals, trees, and the walls are painted like you are in a jungle.So I thought ok its cute-- how is the food. We all ordered fish frys. We got french fries and cole slaw. The cole slaw was so gooooddd! I am real picky on cole slaw and this was the best I had ever gotten when ordering out. The fish was big and very tasty. We got 2 adult and 1 childs. The childs was a bit small so I ended up giving some of mine to my daughter.. The service was very fast! It was busy in there and we were still served with our food within 20 minutes- The floor was a bit dirty from heavy traffic. Could have used a quick vacuum.. But before we left a girl came out and started to sweep it up.. So I'm pretty sure it was just from the dinner rush.I was impressed with my meal and service- The prices were also great! Cheaper than the Moose club.... You get more choices at the Moose club. But I would recommend the Java Jungle.
I just recently bought my cell phone through Christiano Cellular.. I was on the fence with what carrier to choose. I went into Christiano's and they sold me on Verizon. For starters I was able to get 2 phones (both camera, flip) for $50.. that's $25 each. I bought the family share plan.Justin (the sales associate) was great! He was knowledgeable and friendly. He answered all my questions. The store is great- They had many cell phones to choose from. And they had them in the store- Unlike the Dansville Verizon dealer. They also had lots of accessories for the phones. Bluetooth items, headsets, chargers, etc.The store was well lit and very clean.I was sold on Verizon and am very glad I went here- the whole process took less than 30 minutes to get 2 phones- sign up for a plan-- answer my questions and activate my phones- I was on my way!I would highly recommend.
Club 57 is a great place to go eat out.. or out for a drink at the bar- This place just screams class! There are big booths for sitting and dressy tables as well. I love coming here to eat dinner.They have amazing appetizers- I love the french onion soup-- its has a piece of cheese melted over the top-- its quite heavenly.. I have never ordered a bad meal! I usually get the steak- its thick and juicy.. and melts in your mouth-- and the potatoes are wonderful... mashed or baked.. and your dinner is always served with steamed veggies-The first time we went here over the summer- I got the chicken cordon blue-- Honestly this was the best I have ever had!The portions are huge--- I am never able to finish my whole meal... The ribs are the best around too-- there are Baby Back, and St. Louis style-- full rack and half racks-- Both are wonderful!The servers are wonderful--- Very polite and helpful.. but the food is slow-- Usually because it is so busy!You are delivered a loaf of homemade bread with garlic butter--- Oh my-- and the salads are big..The only down side is it is a bit expensive to eat here-- The drinks are like $6.50 for some-- I ordered a long island ice tea-- wowsa-- $6.50.. then I stuck to pop.SO if you're looking for somewhere special- go here--- If you're looking for somewhere cheap- Don't..I highly recommend Club 57... and my daughter loves it too!
I like to go to the Farmers Kitchen for lunch. Its a cute little restaurant located right on the main drag of Wayland heading out of town towards Hornell.The decor is cute--- they have salt and pepper shakers on shelves.. and pictures on the walls (the wallpaper is pictures) of animals. So it keeps the kids amused while waiting for your food.The service here is great! I never have to wait for a refill.. and the food is really good- I usually always get a hamburger and fries-- but do get the desert-- there is always some sort of pie-- and its the best in town.The prices are very good--- A nice family dinner for 3 of us usually costs less than $30... thats a plus in my book... Plus its a very casual restaurant- people come in dressed up or in jeans.This is my favorite restaurant in Wayland. I would recommend it to anyone in the area looking for good family home cooked food!
The powers Inn club located on Rte. 36 in Dansville is an ok place to go. I would say to not bring kids here except for raffles and early chicken wing dinners. This is one of the few places in Dansville- where people can still smoke inside- Unsure how or why? SO its always smokey---There is a dance floor, a bar and bar stools, pool table, and dart board- Once in a great while we go here for a few drinks and play darts. Drinks are cheap..The crowd is rural for a lack of nicer word. Many nights end up with a fight-I do go here for the chicken wings-- early.. on thursday nights-- It is pretty calm then. and the wings are really good. I also try to make it to the turkey raffles... Cant stay long though due to smoke.If you're looking for a place to hang out with some friends-- I'd say go to Jack's in town. If you're looking for good wings in Dansville- Come here on thursday night.
This used to be a video /game rental and laundromat all in one- Now due to Blockbuster-- its just a laundromat. There used to be people who worked here so it was safer--- Now there are no people working but there are video cameras.It used to have 2 tv's.. one for kids and a kids area.. and one above the dryers for the adults. Now there are none.But it is still the cleanest laundromat in town. and the most safe too...There is a detergent bar where you can purchase laundry detergent, bleach, fabric softner. And a pop machine... There is also a money changer-- gotta have them quarters.I used to rent movies here-- but no more--As I said its the cleanest laundromat-- not sure who cleans it or when.. and with the video cameras.. Its the safest too.This is the laundromat I would recommend in Dansville.
Ok so my review is mixed on this company. I went in here looking for a great deal on a pool at the end of the season. The store is small so there are no pools set up to look at- as alot of the bigger stores have pool for you to see. The showroom does have alot of hottubs to view. I wasn't looking for a hottub.The gentleman (didn't get his name) was very nice but arrogant at the same time. You mean a pool for next year at this years prices. I said sure since you don't have any to sell that are floor models. He gave me the price and guaranteed I would be one of the first pool put in in the spring. The price was good but the price for installation and delivery was high! I asked why is it so high?I must say that they are great to work with- because he said I could pay a certain amount a week until it was paid off or pay however I decided. It was just to hold the price the same- I was impressed with this-I have yet to order but am pretty sure I will end up getting it here - more because if something goes wrong with it-- I live in Dansville so its close! But I would rather see the pool I am purchasing up to get an idea how big it is etc.So for friendly service, this is a good place--but if you want to see what you're buying- try the bigger stores in Rochester.

MI Free To Use Prisoner Pensions for Costs
January 13, 2004 (PLANSPONSOR.com) - Michigan's practice of depositing inmate pension payments directly in a prison's general account for disbursement will continue.
>Prisoners in Michigan have been involved in a long legal battle to preserve their pension payments. However, with the US Supreme Court's refusal to hear an appeal of the state court's ruling, the lawsuit ends with the Michigan State Supreme Court's decision, allowing for the collection of inmate pension payments to reimburse imprisonment costs, according to an Associated Press report.
" Michigan taxpayers are on the hook for $26,000 per year per prisoner," Mike Cox, Michigan's attorney general, said in a news release. "This decision … allows our citizens to get back more of what criminals take."
>The case, State Treasurer v. Abbott (See Prisoner Pension Can Be Locked Into Prison's Accounts ), arose when Michigan's state treasurer, under the State Correctional Facility Reimbursement Act (SCFRA), sought to recover the costs of incarcerating Thomas Abbott, arguing his monthly pension payments should be sent to his prison address, deposited in his prison account, and appropriated by the warden.
A trial court granted the treasurer's request, but the Michigan State Court of Appeals reversed. On the reversal, the appellate court held that Employee Retirement Income Security Act's (ERISA) antialienation provision barred the deposit of funds into Abbott's prison account. Under ERISA Section 206(d)(1), benefits provided under a pension plan may not be assigned or alienated. This determination was based on State Treasurer v. Baugh , where a judge in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan found a court order requiring a pension fund to make pension payments to a prisoner's prison account against his will constituted an ERISA violation.
However, the Michigan State Supreme Court overturned the appeals court's ruling. Just because the prisoner in the earlier case did not agree to the deposit at his prison address, such a deposit did not create an assignment unless someone other than the beneficiary acquired a right in the payments, the state high court reasoned. Relying on the treasury department's definition, the court said it "plainly contemplates a transfer of the interest to another person, i.e., a person other than the beneficiary himself. Sending a pension payment to a beneficiary at his own address, and depositing it in his own account, does not assign that payment."
In this case, the court noted the warden did not acquire a right in the pension payments, nor was the warden a receiver, since the warden did not fulfill a receiver's requirements of managing, controlling, or preserving the funds. However, even if the warden were a receiver, he did not acquire a property interest, in that he would have no greater interest than the court itself. Under the court's order, the warden was only required to deposit Abbott's pension fund checks in Abbott's account.
After deciding that requiring pension funds to be sent to Abbott's prison address and deposited in his account did not violate ERISA, the court went on to hold that "once pension funds are deposited in an inmate's account, ERISA does not protect them," the court's opinion held.

Cookies sliding into the oven while the phone is sandwiched between my shoulder and ear. I am laughing and the batch is small because I eat so much of the dough.
The black-and-white dog I am growing to love walking fast with me in the waning twilight. I think we both prefer the longer loop.
Long conversations filling my heart like music and love, and mingling with music and love.
Cell phone reaching its text message capacity yet again, bursting with precious words waiting to be transplanted into the safety of a Word document.
My voice spreading out over the airwaves from our old station and old microphone, and I still can't explain why it's so easy to be on the radio most days.
Firewood finding its way into the woodshed in the rain and shine of summer and fall, filling two nostrils and one face with dirt and accomplishment.
A cat waking me up and a junior-high boy introducing me to anime and two houses of new responsibility weaving into real life.
Boxes of crackers and other scrounged-up snacks being passed into the hands of adolescents in my Sunday school class after we act out Bible stories together. Still, I miss grown-up church.
Thin Bible pages turning to Isaiah and the Psalms and the Gospel of John, mostly, in the shades of evening. I rejoiced the few times it didn't feel like an assignment. I longed for freedom and I longed for true rest.
A girl with wet hair and a too-big T-shirt drifting off to sleep in an empty house. She is ready for tomorrow.
I found out about the 31 Days Challenge late. I returned to the Bible late.
Outside of work and church, I've barely read the Bible in months. Lately, though, I've felt the longing. Two nights ago, I listened to the longing and opened and read. Isaiah and John. And then it seemed a natural thing to lean over my pillow and muse on paper for a few minutes before shutting the light off.
Hundreds of bloggers are accepting the 31 Days Challenge to write something each day in the month of October. I'm one of them.
I'll be writing about the Bible. I'm anticipating doing most of my writing based around the book of John, chapter by chapter, but that may change (especially since there are 31 days in October and only 21 chapters of John).
Let's start with John 1.
"Jesus, where are you staying?" Come and see.
"Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Come and see.
"Jesus! You know something about me you couldn't have known! You are the Son of God!" You will see so much more!
If I'm honest, sometimes I wonder if I've ever really "tasted and seen." Maybe I've experienced what words like freedom and hope and love mean on a human level. Maybe years of seeing them printed in a certain holy Book and hearing them spoken of in warm, inviting tones from pulpits has convinced me that I've experienced them on a spiritual level too. But have I? Have I really?
I want to. I want to know that there really is something … Someone … to taste and see. So I am opening wide my eyes and arms and heart as best I can and returning to the Bible and prayer and following the longing and returning to the reinforcers of faith.
I am coming. I want to see!
Day 22: I need you.
I wrote something similar in the eleventh hour of 2010, two years ago now. Now, after such a landmark year, I think this is an idea whose time has come again.
My three weeks overseas prior to this year has turned into more than seven months this year. I've lived in the UK, I've lived in China, I've tasted and seen and heard the good and the bad music of culture with eyes wide open.
I was used to having friends all over the country, but now I have friends all over the world! It's been wonderful connecting with people from (sometimes vastly) different cultures and backgrounds.
My outlook on life, myself, and, well, everything has been radically transformed this year. I know myself more, and I am more real with others. It's all thanks to God, who used my experiences this year to grow me and help me find true freedom in Him. I have more hope and joy than I've ever had before.
Growing up, I always wanted to be a writer. At university, I got discouraged and set that dream aside. This year, I've dusted off the dream of writing and picked it up again, daring to believe, decrying the fear, dancing in hope. I'm discovering the kind of writing I love to do, and I've been doing it in journals, blogs, and devotionals.
In the six months I've spent with my parents and sister this year, I've realized with great joy that my attitude toward my family has changed, and, thus, that we're connecting and relating to each other better than ever before. This has been one of the greatest blessings of the last six months.
Through my improved relationship with my family, as well as my improved perspective on life, I've been able to "redeem my time" here at home. Incredibly, amazingly, thankfully, I've enjoyed living at home for the first time since I left for college six years ago.
"You enjoy meeting new people" reads one of the statements on many job application assessments. Before this year, I wouldn't have been able to honestly respond with "Strongly agree." But now I can. I've become more outward-focused and more willing to step out of my comfort zone with greater confidence and into new things.
Speaking of stepping out, I've found a niche for speaking to and teaching groups, both seen (Sunday School and youth groups) and unseen (radio audiences).
I'm learning how to enjoy and fully live in the present, rather than living off of memories of the past or expectations for the future. There is joy in today.
Head-knowledge has become heart-knowledge in a number of areas. I've learned so much more about relationships and communication, what it means to truly love, how to deal with doubt and unbelief, and so much more.
I'm learning how to be more intentional in relationships, and my fears and sense of self-worth are no longer at that all-time low they remained at for so long, freeing me to love and care about others more.
My personal devotional time has exploded! I've written through almost three complete journals this year and read a good portion of the Bible. But I can't stop there. It comes back to relationship: my relationship with God. That is the change I'm really celebrating, and I'm grateful for the means He's used to bring it about. I'm learning how to seek God with all of me.
To love the Lord with all one's heart, soul, mind and strength, that is more than burnt offerings. Not just to seek You and serve You with all of me, but to love You.
I want to love You with all my heart – to turn my depth of feeling toward You; to trust You with my heart in all its frailty; to give You the outpourings of my heart, and to give them to You first; to experience true joy in You; and to let You awaken my heart.
I want to love you with all my soul – to pray to You; to listen for Your voice and be ready to act when You speak; to lift my soul to You and no other; and to keep coming after You.
I want to love You with all my mind – to use my intelligence for Your glory; to battle through any doubts I have about Your character or Your actions; to think for You, not just feel for You; to come to You with any and all questions; to commit my mental energies to the purpose of knowing you more; and to listen when You speak to me through the logic, the reasoning, the processes of my mind.
I want to love You with all my strength – to run to You with all the speed I can muster; to stand up again each time I fall, even when it feels like the weight of the world is pressing upon me; to do everything for Your glory; to not give up, or believe the lies that I am not strong enough and never will be; to live the truth that I can do all things through You who strengthen me; and to step out to You and for You, even when it seems like all the odds are against me.
Sometimes, when I'm trying to worship but feel flooded with distractions, I close my eyes and try to focus on a picture of You in my mind. Until now, that picture has been of You seated on a throne, reflecting glory, and me, standing at the other end of the long room, looking at You from a distance.
I didn't realize until yesterday how impersonal that picture was. Maybe sometimes in that picture, I've ventured closer to You, moving down the velvet-carpeted aisle along with other worshippers, but I don't remember You ever leaving Your throne and coming to me. But that is what You do, isn't it?
Certainly many songs describe Your glory and majesty and radiance, all if which are inseparable from who You are. But You also reach out to me. You understand where I'm coming from, and Your throne is a throne of love as well as glory.
I'm still working through what the new "picture" in my mind should look like. Maybe of You, as a shepherd in a field. Maybe of You taking my hand. Or maybe I shouldn't limit myself to one picture, one image, one view.
You are there and yet here. You are king and yet You serve. You are mightiest and yet You love the most. You are all.


Raw Snickers bars, superfood salads and sugar-free pancakes. When did healthy food get so tasty?
Apart from the fact that health is seriously on trend right now, it's also becoming really damn delicious. If we can eat a piece of raw vegan nut butter chocolate everyday and not have to feel bad for it, well, go right ahead and sign us up. And raw chocolate is just the beginning. Now, cafes all around our fair city are dicing, blending and cooking up a healthy storm — and we love them for it. Here are some of our favourites.
These guys are all about good (yummy) food that's good for you. We see absolutely nothing wrong with this. Tucked into a corner building on Victoria Street in Abbotsford, LBSS has always been about doing things a little differently. Whether that's a raw chocolate coconut treat with your almond milk or the artwork that lines the walls. And speaking of the stuff, their coffees (cold or hot) are made just that little bit better by their almond milk that's made in-house.
When it comes to the menu, for a healthy bite, go for the acai bowl topped with quinoa muesli, coconut yoghurt, and fruit, or the gluten free almond berry pancakes. Or you could even go the freekeh cakes served with cashew cream, chilli jam, kale and eggs. All the good things, basically.
Another Abbotsford local, Admiral Cheng Ho is the little sister to Monk Bodhi Dharma and churns out a lot of the same dishes — much to northsiders' delight. No more crossing the river. Coffee is serious here folks, and with six simultaneous grinders on each day, you can expect to be spoilt for choice.
When it comes to the food, they've got all the dietary concerns front of mind. For a sweet start to the day go for Cheng's Granola: a house-made organic spiced raw granola with fruit and house made organic hazelnut milk. Or if savoury is more you, their Avoca Ho is a smashed avo dish worth the trip, as is their umami mushrooms served on polenta bread with feta, thyme, and red chilli oil.
You know a venue is serious when they are entirely raw. Shokuiku on High Street in Northcote know a thing or two about the natural side of foods. The drinks list alone is health craziness. In a good way, of course. You can go for the Ultimate Smoothie ($25) if you're feeling rich: it includes coconut water, coconut meat, berries, hemp, cacao nibs, goji berry, ashwagandha, astragalus, MSM, camu camu, fulvic acid, reishi, maca, marine phytoplankton, mega hydrate, vanilla, and lakanto. Phew.
The dinner menus change monthly and feature things like coconut cream and lime soup with zucchini noodles for entree, layered vegetable bake with vegetable mince and marinara sauce for main, and a banana cream tart with cacao truffle slice for dessert. They also offer custom-made raw cakes, a range of granolas and supplements to take home with you to continue your raw journey. It honestly feels like an adventure. Give it a try.
Combi is all about health. Sitting in a small shopfront in Elwood, these guys have lines out the door on the weekends, so go mid-week if you can swing it. The menu reads like a health nut's dream with cold pressed juices, smoothies, kombucha on tap, acai bowls, sprouted breads, house-made nut milks, raw cakes and treats to die for. If you like your indulgences in liquid form go for the Velvet Cacao smoothie, made with raw cacao, cacao nibs, berries, coconut flesh, cinnamon, banana, raw chocolate fermented protein powder and house made nut milk. For something on the savoury side, you can grab a raw pizza made of dehydrated almond, sunflower and flaxseed topped with raw kale pesto, shredded vegetables and raw cashew cheese.
And don't forget to take home a slice of the raw caramel slice. Seriously. Do it.
Pana Chocolate has been stocking our health food stores for a while now with their 45g chocolate bars, but their shopfront in Richmond is whipping up some serious raw desserts that are sure to change your mind about what raw food tastes like. A raw lemon cheesecake is a decedent and rich version of its namesake, while the Holy Fudge — a mix of raw chocolate, raw fudge, and raw nut butters — will most likely leave you grinning and speechless. At least until you ask for more.
You can stock up on raw cacao, coconut, and other sweet staples while you're there as well. We dare you to leave with just one thing.
Oh the Vegie Bar, a trusted pit stop for those who steer clear of meat, or are just looking for some hearty nosh. The Vegie Bar caters to most tastes with anything from raw pad Thai to a Mexican burrito filled with cheese, sour cream and beans. Hey, it's still vegetarian right? But with a rep for always being ahead of the curve, it's a given that these guys brought in raw dishes — like the raw tacos — before Melbourne was even excited about it. Kudos to you Vegie Bar. And your desserts are off the charts.
Yong's is the quiet achiever of the health food scene. They don't say much, but they've got a healthy fan base — pardon the pun — that does the talking for them. You can go down the raw path here with a 'rawsagne' of layered zucchini with mushrooms, avocado, cashew cream, and raw walnut bolognese, or perhaps you're after a raw cheese platter? Yep, it exists here: herbed garlic cashew cheese, nut bread, tamari almonds, olives and balsamic figs await. If you like your food cooked you can go for the chickpea korma served with brown rice and mango chutney, or the tofu katsu: a fried tofu patty made with shitake, arame and vegetables battered with quinoa, served with brown rice, coleslaw and a house-made katsu sauce. Finish with a raw dessert like the chocolate cheesecake. They are a perfect treat.
Patch in Richmond is championing the Paleo way of eating. No dairy, grains or refined sugars — you get the picture. They do it here, and they do it well too. They're making their own Paleo bread, which makes your morning bacon and eggs feel almost normal. For a real meaty experience go for the Cave Man: eggs, bacon, tomato, wagyu beef, sweet potato fritters, silverbeet, kale and relish. If you're more of a Bircher and latte kinda Paleo, don't worry, they've got you covered as well with their Patch Bircher. Theirs includes activated hazelnuts and almonds, goji berries, apricots, pumpkin seeds, coconut, chia seeds, honey, vanilla bean and orange with coconut yoghurt and blueberries. Oh and an almond or coconut milk latte.
Nutrition Bar is all about clean ingredients, and protein. Gym goers rejoice. Their smoothies are the main attraction here, followed by the acai bowls and the raw treats. Go for a superfood smoothie with coconut water, raw cacao, acai powder, chia gel, agave, vanilla protein powder, LSA, raspberries and ice. It's very very tasty. Their protein acai bowl is again a good protein hit with crushed nuts served on top. Raw treats range from protein balls made by Health Lab, to raw snickers and bounty bars. All the treats.
Barry in Northcote is one of those cafes that really caters to everyone. From the team originally behind Pillar of Salt, Barry is one of those cafes that knows how to do things well. The space on the corner of Barry and High Streets is one of those that draws a wait list on the weekends. But, even so, they always deliver. The menu ranges from coconut chia puddings with banana, caramelised buckinis, sour cherries and coyo, to a burnt onion, buffalo mozzarella and basil omelette in the morning, to a crisp prawn sub with kewpie mayo, pickled cucumber and carrots and raw falafels with beetroot relish, tahini, and pickled cauliflower in the afternoons.

Future proof and scalable NGS data analysis.
Modern NGS platforms can produce tens of thousands genomes per year, enabling large-scale Population Genetics. The detection of variants in the context of a cohort results in much higher quality, however analyzing thousands of samples together demands enormous computational, bandwidth, and storage support.
Genalice overcomes these challenges with its unique Genalice Population product, that provides affordable cohort embedded variant calling. The incremental approach supports easy addition of new samples on minimal underlying hardware. Genalice Population creates a scalable, low footprint, and easy-to-manage sample repository. Moreover 'Consensus Based Call Enhancement' is a highly efficient method to enhance the accuracy of the variant calling process.
High quality variants from 1,000 Drosophila genomes in a day.
The challenge: Mapping and variant calling of large full genome cohorts are time consuming and leave little time to actually analyse variants.
The solution: Realise a fast data processing of more than 1,000 Drosophila genomes in a single day. The speed-up realised with Genalice Population allows scientists to mine data and find the hidden gems in the variant calls.

E-Potter to make $155 m
By Finance
Already one of the richest women in print, Harry Potter author JK Rowling could earn a further $155 million with the release of e-book versions of her Harry Potter books.
A spokesperson for Rowling said the author was actively investigating the release of the Harry Potter e-books, despite previously ruling out making the books available electronically, in an attempt to support booksellers.
Liz Thomson, editor of book industry website BookBrunch, estimated the value of the series at around A$155 million, The Scotsman newspaper reported yesterday.
"I wouldn't be surprised if the rights for the e-books are sold for 100m pounds," Thompson said.
The news will come as a further blow to booksellers around the world, who have suffered since the release of iPad and Kindle devices.
Local booksellers Angus & Robertson and Borders went into voluntary administration last month, a trend reflected in book retailers across the globe.
The Edinburgh-based writer's Harry Potter franchise is reportedly worth $1 billion to date.

                for (var i = 0; i < $(this).find("td").length; i++) {
                    // fill input values
                    $(this).closest("table").find("th").eq(i).find("input:text").val($(this).find("td").eq(i).text());
                    // fill selects
                    $(this).closest("table").find("th").eq(i).find("select").val($(this).find("td").eq(i).text());
                }
            });

A: If you do like this, you don't need to have values that equals to the text.
    $('table').on('click', 'tr', function () {
        if ($(this).hasClass('selected')) {
            $(this).removeClass('selected');
        }
        else {
            $('tr.selected').removeClass('selected');
            $(this).addClass('selected');
        }

    // fill inputs
    $(this).closest("table").find("th").eq(0).find("input:text").val($(this).find("td").eq(0).text());

    // fill selects
   var text = $(this).find("td").eq(1).text();
   var text3 = $(this).find("td").eq(2).text();

   $(this).closest("table").find("th").eq(1).find("select option").filter(function() {
    return $(this).text().indexOf(text) >= 0 && $(this).text().indexOf($(this).closest("table").find("th").eq(2).find('select option[value="' + text3 + '"]').text()) > 0;
}).prop('selected', true);

   $(this).closest("table").find("th").eq(2).find('select').val(text3);

});
http://jsfiddle.net/7vLdxddr/15/

A: Just update the values of the select values to reflect the text coming in from the click (i.e. cir to circle, sq to square and it works perfectly.
http://jsfiddle.net/7vLdxddr/10/
What your code was trying to do was select a input with value circle, but the value of the circle field was cir so it was not being selected properly.

Debenhams to cut some designer own brands - report
Debenhams is axing or reducing some of its designer ranges under the direction of new CEO Sergio Bucher, according to a UK press report.
Bucher, who joined this year from his role as vice-president of Amazon Fashion Europe, is aiming to shake up the retailer to return it to growth and is also focusing on expansion in buoyant areas such as beauty, gifting, swimwear and food.
Debenhams is believed to be shaking up its designer ranges - DR
He is believed to be discontinuing the Betty Jackson line and also reducing the Jeff Banks offer to shirts and formal men's suits, the Evening Standard reported. It also said that Debenhams declined to comment on the issue. Bucher is not due to update the market on his strategic plan for Debenhams until next April.
The retailer launched its Designers At Debenhams concept in 1993 and became a pioneer in retailer-designer collaborations. However, in recent years it has handed the spotlight to stores such as H&M and Topshop whose designer and celebrity link-ups have created more of a must-have buzz.
Betty Jackson was one of the early leading lights of the Designers At Debenhams offer and also later played a large part in the launch of M&S's Autograph collection. Jeff Banks was a retail trailblazer in the 1960s and 70s, made a major impact on the corporate clothing market, co-founded the Warehouse chain and was a presenter for the popular Clothes Show TV programme.
Other veteran designers who create lines for with Debenhams include John Rocha, Jasper Conran, and Ben de Lisi, but no decision on their ranges is believed to have been made yet, the newspaper said. There is also no news on which designers, if any, will replace the outgoing labels.
Last month, less than two weeks after Bucher took the helm, Debenhams reported a 7% drop in pre-tax profits to £105.8m in the 53 weeks to September 3, although they rose 0.5% on an underlying basis. Revenue was flat.
The company said it had seen further weakness in the clothing market during H2 but saw growth in beauty, gifts and accessories.

What Does Car A/C Button Do When Heater Is On? (Explained)
Beginner's Questions / By MotorHowTo.com
The A/C button in the car keeps the car's compressor running so that it removes moisture from the air in the cabin.
Is it normal for this button to be on when the heater is running? Is it bad for the car's units to run simultaneously?
In today's article, learn all you need to know about your car's heater and air conditioner!
Here's What The Car A/C Button Does When The Heater Is On
The A/C button keeps the car condenser on while the heater warms the car. This helps to increase visibility and decrease fogging on the windshield. Last, it also helps maintain the health of the climate control system.
Is It Okay To Have Both A/C And Heating On Simultaneously?
What Is Dual Climate Control In A Car?
Why Does The A/C Button Automatically Come On When Turning On The Heater?
Does The A/C Control The Heating (In Auto Mode)?
Does Automatic Climate Control Save Fuel Compare to Manual?
Hyundai Tucson climate Control switched on
The air conditioner is always turned on when the car's climate control system is initiated in modern cars.
At least, so long as the car's automatic climate control system is tuned on or the defrosters are activated.
Car defrosters are an essential part of the car's climate control system. Without this, it would be virtually impossible for most people to see the roadway clearly, especially at night.
Thanks to the car's A/C unit, the defrosters can remove moisture from the windshield.
However, just because the car's A/C button is on doesn't mean the system will blow cold air.
If the heater is on, all the A/C unit does is compress the air moisture and dispel it from the vehicle. This way, hot, dry air enters the car rather than hot, humid air.

Does Auto Climate Control Use More Fuel? (8 Preventive Tips)
Can I Install Climate Control In My Car? (Read This First)
BMW Climate Control with controls switched on
It is okay to have both the A/C and heating systems on in your car simultaneously. This important feature in your car allows the vehicle to pump dry air into the cabin. If the car didn't dry the air before pushing it into the vehicle, the windshield would be too foggy to see through correctly.
It might sound counterproductive, but running the car heater and air conditioner together is essential. This is the intended purpose of the car's climate control features.
The cold fins on the A/C unit pull the water from the air. This water is separated from the air and dumped below the car while the dry air is pushed inside.
Similar to house A/C units, car units contain freon. Freon is a chemical that artificially lowers the temperature of the atmosphere.
This process also causes evaporation of the water particles in the air, allowing the system to dry the air.
In some cars, you must turn on the heater and the A/C to defrost your windshield. This was especially true in older cars. However, you can automatically turn on this feature in most modern cars by selecting the defrosters.
Audi Auto Dual Climate Control
Dual climate control in cars is a feature that allows two temperatures to flow at the same time. This feature is good if both front-seat passengers want a different temperature blowing on them. In short, the right-hand passenger can use the heater while the left passenger uses the A/C.
Dual climate control is a luxurious feature in some modern cars.
Although not standard for all new vehicles, it's becoming more popular in SUVs, vans, and other larger cars.
Back in 1986, German engineers produced the first BMW with dual climate control. This feature was somewhat simpler back then. It included separate vents that could be tempered to the liking of the left and right.
Now, this system is more advanced.
The system works by having several sensors positioned throughout the vehicle. While most cars have this feature only in the front seats, some family vehicles have these sensors in the back seats too.
The sensor communicates with the computer after you input your preferred temperature into the car computer. The sensor tells the computer whether that preferred temperature has been achieved and acts accordingly.
In these scenarios, the A/C and heater can be initiated simultaneously to adjust the preferred temperatures.
Car dual-zone climate control
The illuminated A/C button simply indicates that the car compressor is activated. The A/C will not turn on or push cool air into the cabin unless you initiate it. All the A/C does in this scenario is compress dry air in case the defrosters are triggered.
The indication that the air conditioner is on only means the air is being compressed. When the air is compressed, it is dehumidified and turned to dry air.
Warm air typically has a higher water vapor content than cold air due to the evaporation of water. When cold air hits warm air, the water particles are dissipated and brought to the earth as rain.
This is a bit of a simplification of the weather system, but it helps explain why cold air is drier than hot air. Hot air holds water in a gas form, while cold air turns it into a liquid state. Although rain is wet, removing the water from the air leaves behind cooler, drier air.
This is similar to how your climate control system works in your car. The car A/C cools the air, compresses the moisture, and expels it from the car.
This allows the vehicle to dehumidify the cabin and increase visibility whenever the defrosters are engaged.
The A/C and heater always work together if the car has an automatic system. Unless you select to handle the climate control manually. In older car models, you need to turn on the air conditioner to dry the air before turning on the heat.
The air conditioner and heater work together. The A/C doesn't control the heater, but the heater doesn't control the A/C either.
The automatic system offers several benefits. These include the following:
Automatically moderates the temperature
Provides Comfort
Automatic and less distracting
While this automatic system is ideal, it's not available in all vehicles. It's preferable to the old system, which requires the driver or passenger to modulate the controls manually.
Audi A6 climate control manual sync switched on
Automatic climate control does help save fuel and energy if used properly. Proper use of automatic climate control includes proper temperature inputs and reasonable adjustments. If you select a moderate temperature, the car will work to maintain it and minimize energy consumption.
Automatic climate controls are more energy efficient than their manual counterparts. This is achieved by regulating the moisture and keeping the cabin at a moderate temperature.
Like home A/C units, it's more efficient to keep the system on than to turn it off. This is because the system moderates the temperature and maintains a comfortable level. It also regulates the humidity of the cabin and removes moisture consistently.
By consistently removing the humidity, the A/C achieves two necessary functions.
It helps maintain the health of the exhaust and climate control systems in the car
It saves energy by preventing the climate control system from overworking to remove humidity
The A/C and heater need to work hard to get the temperature and humidity regulated again.
Check out this great article to check on how to save fuel while using climate control.
The car's air conditioner and the heater must work together to keep the car's environment comfortable. The heater provides warmth in the winter months, but even in cold weather, the A/C is needed.
The air conditioner works to remove the moisture so the heater can bring optimal heat to the cabin. This isn't too different from how all heating and air conditioning units operate.
Home, airline, and industrial heaters and airconditioners always work together! They need one another to make the environment comfortable.

'We just want to go home': Hundreds remaining in shelters anxious to return home after Hurricane Dorian
By Jonah Kaplan
Hundreds in shelters anxious to return home after Dorian
PLYMOUTH, N.C. -- They are the simple pleasures that now are the most sought after luxuries.
"The space, the privacy, the fact that we can take a shower," evacuee Evelyn Robles laments to WTVD-TV. "Honestly, we just want to go home."
Robles and her three children left their home in Engelhard on Wednesday; the community sits on the Pamlico Sound side of Hyde County directly across Hatteras Island.
"When I heard Category 3, I just thought about my children," Robles says of Hurricane Dorian. "I wanted to take precautions."
Indeed, the precautions proved salient, as Dorian churned its way through Eastern North Carolina with fierce winds and torrential downpours. Though communities in the southeastern part of the state escaped relatively unscathed, the severe weather wreaked havoc on the Outer Banks.
Robles says friends of hers who stayed back described the damage as "limited" in her neighborhood, but she won't know for sure until she gets home. That can't happen until officials reopen several bridges and routes connecting the Outer Banks and the North Carolina mainland.
For now, the Robleses have shelter at Pines Elementary School in Plymouth, a shelter serving several dozen evacuees from Hyde, Dare, Tyrell and Washington Counties.
"We're grateful for the help," she says.
Other evacuees, like Quadeisha Richardson, have no information about their homes in places like Manteo, also cut because of the closure of the Virginia Dare Memorial Bridge.
"I'm worried I'm not going to be able to go back inside my home," Richardson explains to WTVD-TV. "The furniture, the floors, just getting flooded, losing items, and having to renew things."
Volunteers and case managers from the Red Cross tell ABC11 the shelter at Pines Elementary will stay open as long as necessary, but evacuees will continue to need assistance well after their time in their care.

"They're going to find they need mops, buckets, brooms, bleach, tarps," Erica Mani, a Red Cross manager, says to ABC11. "We'll be working with all the partners in this area, county management and so many more."
North Carolina Emergency Management on Saturday confirmed no additional deaths have been reported from the storm, and the number of people in shelters is expected to drop in the next 24-48 hours. About 57,000 were still without power.
In a release, officials announced the NC Ferry Division is working to reestablish routes to Ocracoke to transport food, water and other supplies. The U.S. Coast Guard also flew seven air rescue missions to transport people with medical conditions on Ocracoke to safety.

Description (In Witness's Own Words): To be quick, I saw through my daughter's window what looked like 2 upper windows and 3 lower windows. At first, I thought that it was my neighbor's house lights. But after watching for a while, I turned away to give my daughter a drink of water, when I looked back , the lights were off. Then, because I thought I was looking at my neighbors' house, I thought that their outside garage lights were on. But the lights were peculiar. They had no definite form, but I assumed that they were the garage lights because I thought that I was looking at my neighbor's house. Then, the peculiar lights became as one and became brighter and brighter & brighter and brighter as a whole that I questioned what the hell I was looking at. Then, I wondered if my neighbor's garage was on fire, but the lights never flickered or danced like a fire, it was just a continuous bright light that kept getting brighter. At one point, the light started to fade or diminish, and if I remember correctly, it diminished from left to right and before it eventually faded I remember seeing the silhouette of only one tree. (but there were many there in reality). Then I said, what the heck did I just see!! And I became extremely frightened to the point where I couldn't move to shut the window blind. I was paralyzed with fear. Two and a half hours later, when I had awakened, I was looking at woods!! Meaning, I couldn't see my neighbors' house from that angle. There house was to the left of what I saw. I could only see the corner of their roof……….if anything!! So I knew what I saw was in the woods. But elevated from not only the top of their house but also higher than the ground that the trees stood on. So, I needed to inform someone , somewhere, of what I saw. And am curious for other sightings in the area around that time.
Investigator's Notes: Clearly this witness is frightened by what she has experienced. In a follow-up interview the witness stated that she saw the lights on the second story of her home. She said that the trees in the back of house are about the length of a football field from her home. She heard no sound and her neighbors did not see anything. I have checked other UFO databases (National UFO Reporting Center and Filer's Files) and have not found any sightings in that area on February 19, 2005. It is not clear how accessible the area is where the witness saw the lights. (I am waiting for a response to this question.) However, given that she sighted the lights from the second story and that they were blocking her view of the trees, it wouldn't seem to be anyone walking with a flashlight or vehicle traffic. Based upon available information I have no explanation for this event.


Mounted directly onto exterior walls, these fixtures provide area lighting around the perimeter of a facility, making the building safer and more attractive.
Mounted on poles in parking lots and other open spaces, these fixtures provide broad area illumination, making them integral to promoting safety and nighttime visibility.
These fixtures are commonly seen in warehouses, gymnasiums and large retail establishments whose high ceilings require high levels of light output.
These fixtures are installed on lower ceilings where the output of a high bay is not needed. Canopy fixtures are vandal-resistant, making them the ideal lighting choice for parking structures and gas stations.


Developing your sponsorship package can be tough if you don't speak sponsor (aka you're not able to effectively communicate what a brand may expect to provide or receive in return). The sponsorship glossary below will help you begin to think through some of the options that you can provide within your sponsorship pitch to help sponsors effectively understand the scope of your opportunity within commonly used frameworks.
Naming Right Sponsor Sponsor receives the right to rename a facility or venue for a designated period of time.
Example: Enterprise Rent-A-Car recently bought naming rights to the home of the NHL's St. Louis Blues.
You can use SponsorPitch to benchmark against a database of 50,000 deals sortable by each of these sponsorship levels.
Think there's only a handful of exclusive sponsor categories? Think again. SponsorPitch can be used to sort by over 450 different business categories that are most commonly defined within sponsorship.
Term - The length of the sponsorship deal including the date that the sponsorship agreement officially begins and ends. Not all sponsorships start when a contract is signed. Due to previous sponsorship agreements, some may not officially begin for months or even years after a deal is signed.
Licensing - Granting the sponsor the right to use the property's marks – terminology, logo and other trademark usage under brand guidelines. This commonly applies to consumer product goods that may use marks to create a special product or exclusive offer.
Pass-Through Rights - Allowing sponsor to involve approved vendors, typically assuming they do not compete with other exclusive sponsors of the event.
On-site: Signage containing sponsor ID, crowd or camera facing placement, jumbotron, billboards, banners, fencing, defined activation space, gifting or fan promotions, product giveaways, sampling, etc.
Marketing & Media: inclusion in press releases, mailings, cross-promotion, digital assets such as social media, text messaging, email marketing, etc.
Hospitality: tickets, parking, food, amenities, VIP experience, after-parties, meet and greets, luxury box, giveaways, sweepstakes, employee benefits, etc.
Advertising: TV coverage, print ad space, programs, magazine, digital ads, etc.
Media Buy - The required allocation of spend devoted to media. With larger properties, an incremental media spend or buy with the broadcast partner may be required as a condition to the sponsorship deal.
Renewal - Specifying the terms by which subsequent terms of sponsorship will be offered, negotiated or undertaken.
Escalator: A term stipulating the annual percentage or dollar amount that a sponsorship will increase each year if/when renewed.
Powered by the world's largest online sponsorship database, SponsorPitch allows users to track all levels of sponsorship deals and insights in real time. SponsorPitch speeds up the process of making data-driven sponsorship connections by providing an on demand, always updating, self-service research platform.

"Ali" was at a crossroads in her life. She was a teacher, who had loved her job, until she was transferred to a different school. The challenges of the new school, plus a big commute each day had led her to feeling dissatisfied with her job and her life. She knew that paying off debt was vital, if she was to move forward.
She had been off work with stress and was on the point of giving up teaching. However, she knew that not all the stress was work-related, and was terrified giving up her income and pension, would actually increase her stress levels.
She had considerable debt on credit cards, but because she made the minimum repayments each month, she had felt her debt was under control. However, she realised it was holding her back in life and she wanted to be paying off debt NOW. Although considering leaving teaching, she knew that she couldn't then afford the monthly payments. She felt trapped in her job, because she needed the money to make her credit card payments each month.
Ali joined a group course, because she felt that she would work better with other people completing the course alongside her. Even during the introductions, I could see some of Ali's stress disappear. I could feel the relief in her words as she realised others in the group were in a similar position. Anonymous sign up allows clients to share information about themselves and their finances easily.
Ali was desperate to work out how to start paying off debt, because that was her main aim. However debt is only a tiny part of the jigsaw, so we start by looking at ourselves first. Much of the course is about examining attitude to money and money mindset. It is an emotional and interesting journey, as women discover things about themselves that they have never realised.
A major breakthrough for Ali was when she discovered she had always felt "poor" as a child, often envying friends who were better off than her. Was this why she now spoiled her own 4 children? Ali admitted that they only had to ask and they would get. She knew this was a major reason for her credit card debt. Ali was really upset by this because, until this moment, she hadn't even really realised her children were spoiled. She immediately started feeling guilty for spoiling them, guilty for spending so much and for getting into debt and guilty that she was letting her husband down.
I suggested that she needed stop beating herself up about it – what's done was done and no amount of feeling guilty was going to change that. We re-focused on the future and what she DOES want to do, so that all her thoughts were positive. Forgiving yourself is a really important part of the coaching – we cannot possibly move forward if we spend time berating ourselves for all that has gone wrong. Through using strategies in the course, Ali was able to make peace with herself and move forward in a positive way.
We did a major makeover of Ali's finances and after keeping receipts for a month, Ali could clearly see where she was wasting money. She was surprised at how much extra could go to paying off debts, thereby significantly reducing the amount she owed each month. Planning to be paying off debt in a little more than a year, Ali was regaining control of her situation. She could have paid more towards her debts and got them cleared more quickly, but Ali wanted to start a savings plan for Florida. This was a great idea, because it meant that she could really see the dream beginning to form, as each month she put a little into her Fantastic Florida Fund!
Another major part of the course involves clearing out the old to make room for the new. Although the course is about money, the decluttering involves lots of areas such as emotions, attitudes, paperwork, clothes, the house and garden. Ali threw herself into this part of the course, because she had let the house get on top of her while off with stress and hadn't got back on track since.
Excitedly she decided to employ someone to do a major clean of the house and then employ a cleaner on a weekly basis. She knew that with making savings in other areas, a cleaner would remove a lot of her stress, and would be worth every penny. I love this! It's great to see people prioritising and spending their money on things that make them happier.
By the end, Ali decided that she was going to continue to teach, at least until she had finished paying off debt. She was much more prepared to face school, because she now had her home life in order. She had chosen Florida villas and was emailing the owners direct to secure the best prices possible! I know that later in the year, when she and the family head off to the States, they will have an amazing time.
Without Ali taking the plunge and being brave enough to send me that first email, who knows where she would have been now.
Well done Ali – you are a blooming star!

I love these mini crocodiles, unfortunately we don't have them here it's too cold !!
how could I help but lover her, even if she does spell her name wrong ;>0.... our granddaughter once brought two of them home from a camping trip ... she named them Sal and Mandy.
Gotta love her! I've had a few of them in my younger days. Makes me wonder whatever happened to them.
