David O'Connor Presented with General Douglas MacArthur Exemplary Service Award by United States Olympic Endowment
Colorado Springs, Colo. – David O'Connor, an Olympic gold medalist and former President of US Equestrian, was presented with the General Douglas MacArthur Exemplary Service Award by the United States Olympic Endowment at their annual award ceremony hosted in Colorado Springs, Colo., at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum in recognition of his continued service and commitment to equestrian sports within the Olympic and Paralympic movements. O'Connor joins only four other individuals—and the only equestrian—as a recipient of the MacArthur award which recognizes those individuals whose "commanding presence and endeavors have advanced the ideals of the Olympic Movement, and whose commitment to relevance is reflected in a legacy of dedication to the service of others."
O'Connor served as the President of US Equestrian for eight years, leading the organization's key strategic initiatives and growth from 2004-2012. O'Connor served two terms as President and transitioned into a Technical Advisor role on the administrative side of the sport. He worked with the Canadian Equestrian Federation for several years before transitioning into a similar role for the U.S. Eventing Team in 2013, which he held until 2017. In 2018, he became chair of the FEI Eventing Committee, leading and participating in global administration, governance, and safety initiatives in the sport.
"David has represented the equestrian community, both in competition as an athlete, and in governance as a leader, with confidence and complete dedication, always putting the best interests of our sport at the forefront of everything he does," said Bill Moroney, Chief Executive Officer of US Equestrian. "He is most deserving of this recognition and his devotion to ensuring the continued success of the equestrian disciplines has been instrumental in the shaping our community and sport here in the United States and around the world."
As a two-time Olympian for the U.S. Eventing Team, O'Connor brought home a team silver at the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, Ga., followed by individual gold and team bronze at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia, cementing his name in the history books of the sport. He also secured an individual silver and team gold at the 1999 Pan American Games in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. He led the U.S. to team bronze at the 1998 World Championships in Rome, Italy, and team gold at the 2002 World Championships in Jerez, Spain. O'Connor was a three-time winner of the Kentucky Three-Day Event, one of the most prestigious individual competitions in the world in the discipline of eventing. He participated on almost every U.S. Eventing Team named between 1986 and 2004.
O'Connor was inducted into the United States Eventing Association Hall of Fame in 2009, along with the two horses he achieved much of his international success, Giltedge and Custom Made, and was selected as US Equestrian's Equestrian of the Year twice, in 2000 and 2002.
He has continued to serve the equestrian community for more than four decades and is an instrumental leader in the growth and visibility of equestrian interests across the Olympic and Paralympic movements. He remains a coach and mentor to many athletes and facilitates successful competitions across the U.S., while supporting the long-term success of the U.S. Eventing program through further development of the pipeline and sport.
US Equestrian congratulates David O'Connor for his tremendous contributions and commitment to equestrian sport and this historic recognition by the United States Olympic Endowment.

You will need hosting to have a website. You will also need a domain name.
I like to think of domain names as the equivalent of your house's address. That's how people find you.
Then, there's your house. That's where you live, and you usually have to pay some money for rent or to own it.
With hosting, that's where your website lives, and just like a house, this space costs some rent.
The domain name is what people type in to their browser's window to find your website. Domain names are often challenging to come up with as, they need to be unique, easy to recall, and somehow relevant to the website they point to.
So, to summarize: one needs both hosting and a domain name to have a website. The cost of a package like this ranges from $12.00 (promo) to $75.00 / year (average) on GoDaddy, but they often have some attractive incentives and offers for first timers.

Tabia Watson, Yannis Alekos Floros Killed in Jamul Crash
SAN DIEGO COUNTY, Calif. (Jan. 3, 2019) — Yannis Alekos Floros, 21, and his passenger, Tabia Watson, 20, both died in a two-vehicle collision on Campo Road, according to the San Diego Medical Examiner.
The crash took place about 11:27 p.m. on Dec. 31, 2018. Floros was driving eastbound on Campo Road when he reportedly lost control of the vehicle, spun sideways and veered into oncoming traffic where the vehicle was struck by an SUV at Lyons Valley Road. The SUV struck the passenger side door of the vehicle where Watson was seated.
Firefighters and paramedics responded and found both Floros and Watson unresponsive. They performed life saving measures, however, Watson died at the scene at 11:40 p.m. and Floros was taken to a trauma center where he later died at 12:37 a.m. on Jan. 1.
The report did not indicate whether anyone else was hurt in the collision.
Those of us at Johnson Attorneys Group offer our condolences to the families of the two young people who died in this horrible crash.

Media outlets face intense public scrutiny when they rebrand. With loyal followers, an established spot in the cultural landscape, and highly visible logos, there's great expectations for great design.
Fortunately, the latest media logo redesigns haven't disappointed — they're fresh, exciting, and filled with takeaways for amateurs and experts alike. We took a look at 8 popular brands — from news to podcasts — and analyzed their new looks.
Slate started 2018 with a new all-caps logotype featuring a sliced "A" and a deeper shade of maroon than its previous identity.
Lesson: Don't underestimate the power of a wordmark logo. Slate used a bolder typeface and a creative flourish on the "A." These traits add more personality to the brand — and make it more memorable.
The new logo features a cleaner sans-serif font, with "Chicago" getting the same visual treatment as the rest of the name. It also brings a stronger identity with the red star symbol, as seen on the Chicago flag.
Lesson: Simplicity wins again! The new look is cleaner and easier to read online and in print, and the logo adapts well to a monogram version used on social media. It also has better visual hierarchy — with the word "Chicago" the same size as the rest of the name, it's more legible and memorable.
Podcast pioneer This American Life introduced a new logo in January, adding a symbol: a line-drawn American flag in the shape of a speech bubble.
It also dropped its chopped-up text in favor of a more digestible wordmark, and simplified the look by using only two colors (red and white) instead of three.
Lesson: If you have a longer name, choose a logo symbol (or monogram) that represents your brand while keeping its identity as a standalone image on smaller target areas like social media profiles. Take time to choose or create a symbol that matches your brand attributes and is visually consistent with the rest of your logo.
The Guardian launched a new, downsized newspaper format, website, logo, and font to create a more consistent and clear identity across all mediums.
The new logo is a black wordmark in an attention-grabbing typeface. Note that capital letters were added back in, which further demonstrate confidence and authority.
Lesson: Find a typeface that's appropriate for your brand. The Guardian chose a more suitable typeface to represent its British heritage, and it makes the logo more impactful.
Also: consider a stacked text logo if you have two words in your company name. This layout leaves less negative space when placed in a square — and it can be easier to read on different applications.
MAD Magazine had the same logo for more than six decades, so the unveiling of its new look in April was a big deal.
The brand took its original 1950s logo and tweaked it slightly; it features an entirely different (and always-changing) color, style, and typeface than the previous black-and-red logo. It also features small but purposeful imperfections, like the sizing and positioning of the holes in the A and D.
Lesson: When embarking on a rebrand, ask yourself, how can I make my logo more appropriate for my company? In the case of MAD, the new logo better represents the brand's crazy style and quirkiness, as seen in its multi-color variations and imperfections.
Also: Don't be shy about showing off your new look! We love how MAD unabashedly posted its new logo on its Instagram feed in multiple color variations and chopped up into pieces.
Glamour launched a new look with its May 2018 issue, including a complete overhaul of its wordmark logo. Gone is the bold lettering (which often appeared in pink); in its place is a black-and-white geometric typeface with a drop shadow.
The typeface (Landmark by Jonathan Hoefler) also appears throughout the magazine's pages and on its website. Lesson: Glamour's rebrand has seen mixed feedback, but it demonstrates the case for making a radical change: the magazine wanted to shed aspects of its old image and what they stood for to usher in a new era.
It also shows the power of picking a recognizable typeface — one that Glamour now "owns" and can use in many more places than the logo, including print pages, social media images, and more, adding up to a strong and consistent identity.
Rotten Tomatoes updated its almost 20-year-old logo with a flat design, a new color, and a repositioning of both its classic tomato and "splat" icons.
Pentagram design studio spearheaded the rebrand, and Rotten Tomatoes asked fans for their opinions throughout the process.
Lesson: Choose an appropriate color! It makes sense for the Rotten Tomatoes logo to include a tomato-red color, as it makes it stickier and more memorable. Dropping the drop-shadow also makes this logo bolder and easier to read at different sizes.
Ad Age made the long-overdue step of officially shortening its name at the end of 2017 to match how everyone refers to the well-known industry publication.
Lesson: Less is more. A shorter name is more digestible and memorable — and more flexible when used across mediums. For example, Ad Age's new logo can be stacked in its favicon, used vertically on business cards and other collateral, and paired with other sub-brands while upholding a strong visual identity.

Oskar Lindblom helps Flyers force Game 7 in return from cancer treatments
Image Source: https://www.espn.in/
The Philadelphia Flyers staved off elimination yet again Thursday and got a boost from Oskar Lindblom's return to the lineup, marking the forward's first game action since he was diagnosed with and treated for Ewing's sarcoma.
"I tried to think positive during the whole chemo," Lindblom said. "I knew I was going to play one day, but I didn't know when. Today was the day, and I was lucky to be there with these guys."
Lindblom played 17:30 in the 5-4 double-overtime win over the Islanders to help Philadelphia force a Game 7 on Saturday.
"This kid has so much courage," captain Claude Giroux said. "I mean, he played unbelievable, too. He hasn't played since — I'm not seven sure. It's been a long time. It's been a long battle. And this guy's heart — you've got to see it to believe it."
Lindblom, 24, was diagnosed with the rare bone cancer in December. He was having a breakout season, tied for the team lead with 11 goals through 30 games. Lindblom stayed in Philadelphia throughout the season to receive chemotherapy at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. He completed his final treatment in July.
Coach Alain Vigneault said that the medical staff and assistant coaches had been monitoring Lindblom's health since the team has been in the bubble.
"I talked to him this morning," Vigneault said. "Considering our situation this morning, I knew [Sean Couturier] wasn't gonna be in. I knew Joel [Farrabee] wasn't going to be in. I asked him how he felt and told him how I was going to use him."
Lindblom hadn't played a game in 271 days. Vigneualt said he used the forward a bit more than he anticipated because the game went to double overtime.
"It's hard to step in in a playoff game, especially one of these we have to win," Lindblom said.
The Flyers have already demonstrated their faith in the Swedish forward, awarding him a three-year, $9 million extension just weeks after he finished his chemo.
"I don't think there's anything that can describe how proud we all are of him, how much he means for our organization and our team," goalie Carter Hart said.
Hart added that Lindblom had been an inspiration for the team the entire season — "not just tonight."
"Obviously, him coming into the lineup and playing definitely gives our team a huge boost of energy," Hart said. "One of the guys said it's like he never left. … It's pretty amazing what he's gone through and how much he's overcome and persevered, so for him to be here with us, we're so thankful and so happy."
Lindblom is the Flyers' nominee for the Masterton Trophy, which is awarded annually to the NHL player who "best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to ice hockey." The NHL will announce the winner this summer.
The Flyers selected Lindblom 138th overall in 2014. He has 30 goals and 27 assists in 134 career games with Philadelphia.

TaqMan qPCR pushes boundaries for the analysis of millennial wood
Posted on January 28, 2017 by ARCAS
Publication date: March 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 79 Author(s): Javier Gómez-Zeledón, Wolfgang Grasse, Fabian Runge, Alexander Land, Otmar SpringMillennial-old trees excavated from alluvial deposits or sampled from historical buildings are of high scientific value, e.g. for dating archeological wood as well as to reconstruct past climate variability. While chronologies are supported by isotopic measurements, climate reconstructions from year rings depend on reliable species identification and in some cases even specific populations should be differentiated. Such information could easily be provided by suitable DNA markers, given that DNA is available in appropriate amount and quality. Information from ancient DNA of wood remains is very scarce due to the difficulties in the extraction process, degradation of nucleic acids and the physical and chemical complexity of wood samples. We developed a new method to trace highly fragmented DNA by using a TaqMan qPCR assay, combined with a DNA extraction protocol specifically designed for wood. This approach resulted in a high rate of positive samples and provided sequence DNA information from subfossil oak wood up to 9000 years of age.
Are the intensities and durations of small-scale pottery firings sufficient to completely dehydroxylate clays? Testing a key assumption underlying ceramic rehydroxylation dating
Publication date: March 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 79 Author(s): Jonathan Paige, Kostalena Michelaki, Christopher Campisano, Michael Barton, Arjun HeimsathRehydroxylation (RHX) dating was recently suggested as a simple, cheap, and accurate method for dating ceramics. It depends on the constant rate of rehydroxylation (the slow reintroduction of OH) of clays after they are fired and dehydroxylated (purged of OH) during the production of pots, bricks, or other ceramics. The original firing of the ceramic artifact should set the dating clock to zero by driving all hydroxyls out of the clay chemical structure. To examine whether this assumption holds, especially for pot firings of short duration and low intensity, as those in small-scale traditional settings, we performed thermogravimetric analysis of clay samples of known mineralogy at temperatures and for durations reported from traditional sub-Saharan, American, and South Asian pottery firings. Results demonstrate that in the majority of samples, complete dehydroxylation (DHX) did not occur within, or even beyond, the conditions common in traditional firings. Consequently, between 0.01 and 1.5% of a sample's mass in residual OH may remain after firings analogous to those observed in the ethnographic record. Lack of complete DHX at the scales we have observed can result in the over-estimation of ceramic ages by decades to tens of thousands of years, depending largely on the age of the sample, and the amount of residual OH present. Thus, in many cases, a key assumption underlying current RHX dating methods is unlikely to have been met, introducing considerable error in dates.

Archaeological formation theory and geoarchaeology: State-of-the-art in 2016
Publication date: March 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 79 Author(s): Ruth Shahack-GrossSince the influential work of Michael B. Schiffer on formation processes has been published in 1987, much has advanced on the part of environmental formation processes also known as N-transforms. Most new knowledge is the result of research conducted by geoarchaeologists. On the theoretical level, a huge leap forward was made with the realization that occupation deposits are artifacts of human activity. The focus of formation theory thus shifted from the artifact to the deposit. Methodological innovations and a geoarchaeological tool-kit, notably including the contextual technique of micromorphology, followed. Empirical studies of archaeological occupation deposits contributed new spatial and stratigraphic knowledge and understanding. A holistic middle-range methodology termed geo-ethnoarchaeology was developed, whereby macroscopic and microscopic artifacts are studied together with their associated sediments in ethnographic contexts, providing contextual (social) information about the relationship between artifacts and the surrounding sediments as archaeological assemblages form. This method is especially powerful when sequentially dated abandoned settlements or features are studied to provide mechanistic understanding of assemblage and/or site formation through degradation. Because geo-ethnoarchaeology is based on general chemical, biological and physical laws, the resultant mechanistic models are applicable globally, for any time period, culture, and environment. The new tools and mechanistic understanding by which N-transforms are currently studied, provide means to more reliably interpret the archaeological record, which is crucial for the credibility of archaeology. Therefore, when studying archaeological assemblages one should utilize the tool-kit developed by geoarchaeologists to first assess the states of preservation of the various material assemblages (macroscopic and microscopic), as it should be borne in mind that assemblages identified to be well-preserved will produce the most reliable archaeological interpretation. The theory and method of geoarchaeology have matured enough to allow responsible archaeological research into the meaning of spatial and temporal (stratigraphic) patterns at any given site.
Environmental reconstruction and dating of Shizitan 29, Shanxi Province: An early microblade site in north China
Publication date: March 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 79 Author(s): Yanhua Song, David J. Cohen, Jinming Shi, Xiaohong Wu, Eliso Kvavadze, Paul Goldberg, Shuangquan Zhang, Yue Zhang, Ofer Bar-YosefGlobal cooling during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) posed significant challenges to peoples living in northern Eurasia. Using micromorphology, pollen and non-pollen palynomorphs (NPP), and faunal analyses, this study reconstructs the local paleoenvironmental contexts of repeated ephemeral occupations at Shizitan 29 in Shanxi Province, North China, across the LGM, from ca. 28 to 18 Ka cal BP, followed by a gap until a final occupation ca.13.5 Ka cal BP. Among the significant finds at Shizitan 29 are remains of 285 hearths and a rich lithic assemblage that contains the earliest radiocarbon-dated evidence for microblades in China, appearing first in Layer 7. The environmental data show that the low mountains and tributary river valleys of the Yellow River in the Loess Plateau provided abundant sources of water and food in spite of environmental fluctuations. Microblade-producing groups repeatedly visiting this locality survived severe climate change by making use of fire, selective herbivore hunting, processing plant foods with grinding stones, and symbolic ornamentation such as ostrich shell beads. NPP data also indicate the potential presence of flax and other fiber processing. The Shizitan 29 data demonstrate how humans adapted to challenging local conditions throughout the LGM, allowing them to stay within this northerly region without migrating to warmer southern latitudes.
Ancient DNA analysis of cyprinid remains from the Mesolithic-Neolithic Danube Gorges reveals an extirpated fish species Rutilus frisii (Nordmann, 1840)
Publication date: March 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 79 Author(s): Ivana Živaljević, Danijela Popović, Aleš Snoj, Saša MarićThe paper presents and discusses the results of the first ancient DNA (aDNA) analysis of cyprinid remains recovered from the Mesolithic-Neolithic sites of Vlasac, Lepenski Vir and Padina in the Danube Gorges (North-Central Balkans). Cyprinids constitute a significant portion of the identified fish remains recovered from these sites, which is indicative of their dietary role, and their large pharyngeal teeth have been worn as garment appliqués and associated with a great number of buried individuals. aDNA analysis (involving mitochondrial and nuclear markers) of pharyngeal bones with teeth corresponding to those used as appliqués has determined that they originate from anadromous Rutilus frisii (vyrezub), previously unrecorded in the Middle and Lower Danube. At present, the species inhabits the Black, Azov and Caspian Sea basins, but the only known populations in the Danube inhabit solely its upper reaches in Austria. The results of our study and the occurrence of R. frisii in the Danube Gorges further corroborate that its Upper Danube and Black Sea habitat had been connected in the past, i.e. that the species was entering the whole stretch of the river during its spawning migrations. Furthermore, precise taxonomic identification has important implications for a better understanding of fishing practices and their seasonal schedule in the Danube Gorges, and the distribution of cyprinid pharyngeal teeth ornaments in Europe during the Mesolithic.
Ritual complexity in a past community revealed by ancient DNA analysis of pre-colonial terracotta items from Northern Ghana
Publication date: March 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 79 Author(s): Heather A. Robinson, Timothy Insoll, Benjamin W. Kankpeyeng, Keri A. Brown, Terence A. BrownThe pre-colonial 6th–14th century terracotta forms of Koma Land, Northern Ghana, contain cavities which may have been intended to hold liquids. These have been linked to traditional African libation, but the specific nature of their contents is unclear. We used generic polymerase chain reactions that would amplify DNA from a range of plant and fungal species in order to identify remains of libations applied to fourteen terracotta items. We anticipated difficulties in distinguishing genuine ancient DNA sequences from those resulting from contaminating material, and therefore also carried out a series of control experiments to assess the extent to which the samples had become contaminated with exogenous DNA during burial, excavation and downstream analysis. Taking account of the results of the control experiments, as well as the difficulties in assigning matches between ancient DNA sequences and database entries, we provide evidence for the use of three different types of plant – plantain/banana, pine and grasses – in libations associated with the terracotta items. We also identified DNA from Coniochaeta yeast within the mouth cavity of one figurine, suggesting that this structure was burnt prior to deposition.
Post-depositional alteration of humid tropical cave sediments: Micromorphological research in the Great Cave of Niah, Sarawak, Borneo
Publication date: January 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 77 Author(s): M. Stephens, J. Rose, D.D. GilbertsonThe post-depositional alteration of cave sediments is of critical importance for the recognition, identification and investigation of geoarchaeological and palaeoenvironmental evidence. There have been relatively few studies of tropical cave sediments using micromorphology and this work represents one of the most detailed with 26 samples taken from deposits in the West Mouth of the Great Cave of Niah that cover the last >∼55,000 BP, and contain the earliest known evidence for the remains of modern humans in Southeast Asia. Cave sediments situated in the humid tropics are subject to relatively high temperatures and moisture conditions that promote high rates of chemical alteration and geomorphic change. This paper outlines those post-depositional features that occurred in situ in the West Mouth and include: translocation and concentration; bioturbation; excrement; bone alteration; plant alteration; clast alteration and guano decomposition. It examines their implications for recognising past human activities (e.g. fire-altered materials), the preservation of archaeological remains, the nature of palaeoenvironments and of localised physical and bio-geochemical processes.
Approaches to Middle Stone Age landscape archaeology in tropical Africa
Publication date: January 2017Source:Journal of Archaeological Science, Volume 77 Author(s): David K. Wright, Jessica C. Thompson, Flora Schilt, Andrew S. Cohen, Jeong-Heon Choi, Julio Mercader, Sheila Nightingale, Christopher E. Miller, Susan M. Mentzer, Dale Walde, Menno Welling, Elizabeth Gomani-ChindebvuThe Southern Montane Forest-Grassland mosaic ecosystem in the humid subtropics southern Rift Valley of Africa comprised the environmental context for a large area in which modern human evolution and dispersal occurred. Variable climatic conditions during the Late Pleistocene have ranged between humid and hyperarid, changing the character of the ecosystem and transforming it at different points in time into a barrier, a refuge, and a corridor between southern and eastern African populations. Alluvial fans presently blanket the areas adjacent to major river systems, which were key areas of prehistoric human habitation. These sets of variables have created conditions that are both challenging and advantageous to conduct archaeological research. Lateritic soil development has resulted in poor organic preservation and facilitated insect bioturbation, which has demanded an integrated micro-macro scale approach to building a reliable geochronology. An integrated field and analytical methodology has also been employed to identify the nature and degree of post-depositional movement in alluvial deposits, which preserve a wide range of spatial integrity levels in buried stone artifact assemblages between 47 and 30 ka in Karonga, northern Malawi. This paper describes the methodological advances taken toward understanding open-air Middle Stone Age archaeology in sub-tropical Africa, and explores the inferential potential for understanding Pleistocene human ecology in the important southern Rift Valley region.

Rhodiola rosea (Russian Rhodiola) This is a perennial plant with red, pink, or yellowish flowers. It is no biological relation to the "common" rose, but due to its similar fragrance it has been used as a substitute for Attar of Roses. One of the greatest things Rhodiola does is enhance mental and physical performance. It has been widely used by Russian athletes and cosmonauts to increase energy. Rhodiola is cardio-protective, normalising the heart rate immediately after intense exercise. It improves nervous system and mental functions such as memory by increasing blood-supply to the muscles and brain, and also increases protein synthesis, (1,2,3).
Rhodiola rosea has extraordinary pharmacological properties as an anti-mutagen and anti-depressive agent. In this respect Rhodiola rosea is much more powerful than other adaptogens.
The anti-depressive and anti-stress activity of Golden root is higher than that of St. John's Wort, Ginkgo biloba and Panax Ginseng. Furthermore, Rhodiola rosea is five times less toxic than Panax ginseng. In another clinical trial 150 individuals suffering from depression took Rhodiola rosea extracts for a period of one month. At the end of that period two-thirds of them had full remission of clinical manifestations of depression, and had become more active and more sociable. Daytime weakness and general weakness disappeared.
In one study done by O.M. Duhan and colleagues (4), the anti-mutagenic activities of Panax Ginseng and of Rhodiola rosea were compared It appeared that the extracts of Rhodiola rosea had the higher capacity to counteract gene mutations induced by various mutagens (up to about 90% inhibition in some cases). Rhodiola rosea extracts reduce significantly the yield of cells with the chromosome aberrations in vivo and inhibit unscheduled DNA synthesis induced by N-nitroso-N-methylurea in vitro (5). It is emphasised that Rhodiola rosea extracts have rejuvenative properties due to their ability to raise the efficiency of the intracell DNA repair mechanisms.
Probably the best reason to use Rhodiola (an a real Achille's heel for group O individuals) is the ability of the plant to help clear excess catecholamines, such as adrenaline and nor-adrenaline. From Live Right 4 Your Type, you may remember that group O blood is associated with tendencies to over accumulate adrenaline by excess conversion of their dopamine. In addition to the excess levels, group O is associated with a lowered ability to clear catecholamines once made.

Q: What's the difference between "the statement given" and "the given statement"? I've stubbled upon these kind of phrases many times but I'm still not sure whether they are interchangeable or not. And also there's a similar phrase like "the invading barbarians", is it the same as if I word it as "the barbarians who are invading" for that matter, can it be used in every sentence?

A: There is no difference between "the given statement" and "the statement given". The other example that you give in your question is potentially more complex, and I am not going to say this answer applies to it or to attempt to address it.

MP's call for an end to gig economy exploitation from companies such as Uber and deliveroo
A joint report and draft parliamentary bill has been published by the work and pensions and business, energy and industrial strategy select committees to put an end to workers exploitation within the gig economy. Their concern is companies such as Uber and Deliveroo are taking advantage of workers to gain a competitive edge against competitors.
As reported in the HuffPost uk edition ; Frank Field DWP committee chair, said:
"The two committees are today presenting the prime minister with an opportunity to fulfil the promise she made on the steps of Downing Street on her first day in office, with a draft bill that would end the mass exploitation of ordinary, hard-working people in the gig economy. The bill would put good business on a level playing field, not being undercut by bad business. It is time to close the loopholes that allow irresponsible companies to underpay workers, avoid taxes and free ride on our welfare system." The MP's are calling for the companies to either guarantee workers a set number of hours each week. If they are unable to, then they are requesting compensation to be met for the uncertainty. Rachel Reeves, chair of the business, energy and industrial strategy committee, said:
"Uber, Deliveroo and others like to bang the drum for the benefits of flexibility for their workforce but currently all the burden of this flexibility is picked up by taxpayers and workers. This must change. We say that companies should pay higher wages when they are asking people to work extra hours or on zero-hours contracts"
She went on to add: "Recent cases demonstrate a need for greater clarity in the law to protect workers. Responsible businesses deserve a level-playing field to compete, not a system which rewards unscrupulous businesses. We need new laws but also much tougher enforcement, to weed out those businesses seeking to exploit complex labour laws, and workers, for their competitive advantage." Uber have been battling lawyers in court over their drivers employment status, with judges ruling in favour of drivers being considered employees rather than Uber's claims of being self employed "Uber partners" Uber are likely to push through a Supreme Court appeal against this latest decision.

Q: PHP APC failing in unit tests We use the APC user cache in our application, but I've started noticing various problems in our unit tests specifically related to the APC tests.
It seems that eventually APC starts failing to store and retrieve results; while most of the tests continue to run correctly (as they just rebuild data if it's not recovered from the cache) the tests that specifically test that caches are emptied or repopulated when they should be fail, which is somewhat annoying.  The same tests run fine if they are ran in isolation, rather than as part of the whole test suite).
Questions

*

*Has anyone else had similar problems?  I can't seem to find much on this through google, aside from problems with the slam_defence setting breaking unit tests (which doesn't seem to be my problem, as it doesn't display any error messages for me).

*Does anyone know how to get more debugging info out of APC?  I detect failure by checking the return code of apc_store() and passing the extra success parameter to apc_fetch(), but all I get from that is a boolean success/failure status; no details on which I can follow up on.

A: My guess would be that perhaps the cache is full. In your application this is something you should be able to handle (never assume the items exist in cache). I'm not aware of how APC caches or expires stuff, so it is weird that 'later stuff' isn't retained.
In the case of your unittests, would calling apc_clear_cache('user') for every test work?

Gareth Edwards helms the first spin-off movie in the Star Wars franchise.
There's a growing epidemic within fans of the Star Wars universe which forces their minds to accept anything that's released in the franchise, for two reasons. One being, "it's not The Phantom Menace", and two being, "it's Star Wars!" As a fanatic, I somehow have become immune to this disease. I believe that the original trilogy is one of the greatest things ever to happen to mankind – period – and so I have remained incredibly critical of everything that's come out since I was of an intelligent enough age.
Enter: Rogue One, the first Star Wars full-length spin-off, directed by Gareth Edwards (2014's Godzilla). Set in between Episodes III and IV, Rogue One attempts to bridge the gap between the two films and explain exactly how the Rebels acquired the plans to the Death Star. With a darker, more adult tone than we've ever seen in a Star Wars film thus far, Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) leads an assortment of pilots, assassins, and former imperials on a mission to push the Rebellion forward and figure out a way to destroy Darth Vader's ultimate weapon.
The film, for all intents and purposes, works fine enough and properly shows just how these crucial plans got into the hands of the Rebels in the first place. It is a dazzling science fiction movie with effects galore – some extremely impressive, and some diving deep into the uncanny valley – but the big problem here is the characterization. Yes, we know that this mission may be a suicide, but we aren't given much of a reason to truly care besides the fact that we are told to. The story of Star Wars contains many loopholes and plot points that you really have to stretch your reasoning to accept as truth, but these things really come second to the strength of the characters within the story.
Rogue One misses this point entirely and does not give us anything revolutionary in terms of character development outside of three underutilized faces. These are Donnie Yen as Chirrut Îmwe, a blind warrior with a strong belief in the force, the most compelling of the bunch; Jiang Wen as Baze Malbus, a militant, heavy artillery-wielding companion to Îmwe; and finally, Mads Mikkelson as Galen Urso, a reluctant Imperial science officer who holds the key to destroying the Death Star. These three characters are quite possibly the only ones in the film who will remain memorable after the credits roll, barring any recurring characters. Jyn Urso, on the other hand, remains to be a bland character without anything outlandishly unique about her, and the robot companion of the team, K-2SO, provides comedic relief but feels very much like a more confrontational C-3PO. The rest feel replaceable and plastic, none of their personal tales being given much care.
There are those who will say that it doesn't matter and that the overall story is much more important than the individual characters; I will strongly disagree, and I will use the Original Trilogy as my argument. Each character, their motivations, their strengths, their flaws, are given as much care and attention as the rest of the war going on is given. In Rogue One, it's an afterthought.
But don't jump to conclusions just yet. Though I am being critical – I told you I was going to do that, didn't I? – Rogue One is a good movie. It's one of those spectacles where you can just sit back and watch the action go on without really getting too emotionally attached; partly because of characterization, but also partly because you know the eventual outcome. It's a fun supplemental film, one that I enjoyed, but it simply didn't have the power to affect me the way any of the other films did. And yes, in being completely honest, I would have to include the prequels in that statement. I was nine when the first of them came out and it blew my mind back then. I was a child, what do you want from me? And no, I'm not a psychopath; Jar-Jar is a horrible character. So let's just get that out of the way before any of you start slinging absurdities.
Areas in which the film is sure to satisfy any fan of the franchise are undoubtedly the scenes with Darth Vader in them, as infrequent as they may be. Many have been clamoring their whole lives – literally their whole lives because they originally saw Vader for the first time when they were children – to see the villain pull out all the stops and show his true power. And in Rogue One, your prayers have finally been answered. The two scenes with him as the focal point are nothing short of mindblowing; they give the feel that I've lamented missing from much of the rest of the film. That adrenaline, that excitement, that sense of wide-eyed fear – it's all there, in glorious HD. Vader still rules after all of these years.
To reiterate: Rogue One is a good movie, despite its shortcomings. It successfully shows the horrors of the Death Star and illustrates an interesting struggle to get the plans for the weapon, but it lacks the sense of wonder that the other films have given us. As the first supplemental film, I hope that the upcoming ones will be better. To me, Rogue One was a trial run; and from this run, I've decided that although it's good, I sincerely hope that future installments tweak certain things. And not becoming fully enamored with every single thing that bears the Star Wars name does not make you any less of a fan.
The Geeked Gods Score: 8/10. Very good.
Rogue One is a Star Wars movie that doesn't feel like a Star Wars movie; interesting story, great visuals, but it lacks some serious emotional depth that are so prevalent in the other films.

The following are notable members of the Religion of Crime:
Stanton T. Carlyle and Giselle Carlyle: Stanton was a Professor who wrote a book entitled A Blasphemous Mythology: The Religion of Crime which "defuncts" the "hoax" of the Religion of Crime. Its real purpose was to provide the teachings to the general public without their knowledge. Stanton was killed by his wife, Giselle, in an attempt to increase the popularity of the book by creating a scandal in which it appeared the Religion of Crime sought revenge for the publication of the book. Giselle was captured by the Question.
Abigail Lincoln-Gray a.k.a. Mother Superior: Abigail Lincoln-Gray is the leader of a "House of Lilith" (i.e. a brothel) in which, among other things, people are converted to the Religion of Crime and/or blackmailed. The House was located in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Renee Montoya, under an alias, visited the House regularly in order to collect information. During her visits she was frequently "partnered" with Elicia, who attempted unsuccessfully to seduce Renee. Ultimately Elicia was hit by Abigail for her failures and, that night, Renee gave in to her advances. Immediately afterwards, Renee stopped a ritual during which the House was burned down.

SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs est un jeu vidéo de tir tactique développé par Zipper Interactive et publié par Sony Computer Entertainment en 2002 sur PlayStation 2.

Aux commandes d'un bataillon de l'U.S. Navy SEALs, le joueur doit mener à bien divers missions de contre-terrorismes. Le jeu propose un mode solo, comprenant 12 missions, et un mode de jeu en ligne gratuit, l'un des premiers disponibles et des plus populaires sur PlayStation 2. SOCOM se démarque par sa dimension tactique. Il a la particularité d'implémenter un système de reconnaissance vocale qui permet de donner des ordres à ses coéquipiers via le micro-casque USB "HeadSet".

Système de jeu

SOCOM est l'abréviation de U.S. Special Operations COMmand. Le joueur est à la tête d'une unité de 4 soldats à travers 12 missions qui prennent par dans 4 régions : l'Alaska, la Thaïlande, le Congo, et le Turkménistan.

Dans les missions solo, les ordres peuvent être donnés aux trois équipiers en utilisant le format 'où', 'quoi' et 'quand' (par exemple : Bravo, Attaquer, Point Nav Zoulou). Les ordres peuvent être donnés par l'intermédiaire du micro USB ou par un menu intégré au jeu. Les missions consistent à neutraliser les terroristes, libérer les otages, retrouver des informations ou détruire les bases ennemies.

Avant chaque mission le joueur choisit une arme principale et une arme secondaire parmi un arsenal comprenant de nombreuses armes réelles, telles que la Colt M4 et l'AK-47, le pistolet mitrailleur MP5 et le M82 Barrett rifle, un fusil de précision. Une grande variété de pistolets, de grenades et d'explosifs est également disponible. Les armes sont propres à chaque camp, les SEALS choisissant la plupart du temps des armes silencieuses telles que la (Colt M4) et souvent assez précises. Les terroristes sont souvent équipés de l'AKS-74, mais également d'un pistolet entièrement automatique, le Model 18.

Dans les missions il n'y a aucun point de contrôle, ce qui fait que quand le joueur meurt/échoue la mission il doit recommencer depuis le début de celle-ci. Dans les missions où un objectif donné est "sensible" (exemple : sauvetage/extraction d'otages, etc.) la furtivité s'avère essentielle en raison du manque de point de contrôle.

Dans les parties en ligne, le joueur peut incarner les SEALs ou les terroristes. Les modes de jeu sont propres à chaque carte et sont au nombre de trois : suppression (éliminer tous les membres de l'équipe adverse), extraction (évacuer les otages) et démolition (s'emparer de la bombe et détruire la base de l'équipe adverse).
