Cabernet Franc: A Local Hero In the Loire Valley
Cabernet Franc has long taken a back seat to its dazzling offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon. So wildly successful has the latter become that for most of the wine-drinking public, the name Cabernet simply means Cabernet Sauvignon. Does anyone know, or even care, about the "other" Cabernet? Globally, it's barely visible. And in its Loire Valley heartland, Cabernet Franc has suffered from a reputation for green character, unripe tannin, and lean leafiness for as long as anyone can remember, struggling to find an identity beyond these attributes. But a greater understanding of how to get the best out of this sensitive variety has led to radical advances in quality. In a world where ripeness is easy to come by, but freshness and balance less so, Cabernet Franc is coming into its own. Properly handled, it produces sublimely fragrant and graceful wines that can appeal within a year of bottling and age for a decade or more. With a string of warm, successful vintages under its svelte belt, perhaps Loire Valley Cabernet Franc's moment in the sun has finally arrived.
The Lay of the Land
Cabernet Franc is believed to be France's oldest red wine-grape variety. Although typically thought of as French, or even from Bordeaux, its origin was most likely a little farther south, in northern Spain. In Wine Grapes, the balance of probability is placed on its birthplace being the Basque country, from where it was a short hop for the vine to travel to Bordeaux and, from there, an easy boat ride up the Atlantic coast to the Loire.
Beyond these early forays, however, Cabernet Franc has not proven to be a successful traveler. Pockets of Cabernet Franc can be found in the US, Argentina, and Australia, but most plantings are still in France. Close to 16,000 hectares are planted in the vineyards of the Loire Valley, with a similar quantity in Bordeaux. Together, the plantings in these two regions make up 70% of the world's acreage. Cabernet Franc is a far more important grape in the Loire than in Bordeaux, however. In Bordeaux, it accounts for less than 10% of black grapes. To put this into context, there is twice as much Cabernet Sauvignon and more than six times as much Merlot. For the Bordelais, Cabernet Franc is a minority blending partner, usually confined to the cooler soils of the Right Bank. In the Loire, it's a different story. In Chinon, Saumur-Champigny, Bourgueil, and Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, Cabernet Franc is the hero, vinified alone to make increasingly high-quality reds.
Finding the Loire Style
There has been a tendency for Loire growers to compare their wines with those from Bordeaux, a temptation that grew following the positive influence of the critic Robert Parker on the fortunes of Bordeaux in the 1980s. But Loire wines couldn't compete on that score. MW Sam Harrop, a New Zealand–based consultant and winemaker, worked with Loire growers for several years in the early 2000s. He recalls, "At that time, people were trying to get top Parker scores, using lots of new oak and lots of extraction." While some of the wines made in this style were successful, many were afflicted by the overextraction of green flavors and hard tannins. Harrop says, "The bigger styles could be impressive but also quite green. I tried to get [winemakers] to make wines that were more sympathetic to their terroir, to look more to Burgundy than Bordeaux." Harrop's suggestions included fermenting at cooler temperatures, gentler tannin extraction, and reducing new oak for maturation. "They needed to explore the natural elegance and diversity of soils in this cooler climate and to interpret their own terroir rather than emulating the Bordeaux style," he explains, adding, "The idea was to celebrate the acidity rather than the tannins." Harrop developed trials to show the effects of picking grapes in a single vineyard at the same time but using different vinification techniques, demonstrating that there was a viable alternative to imitating Bordeaux.
This work and the shift away from more heavily extracted styles have been beneficial for the overall quality of Loire Cabernet Franc wines in the past two decades. Some of the most successful growers today reversed course: power and structure turned into elegance and finesse. Wilfrid Rousse became a winemaker in Chinon in 1987. "In the 1990s, I did what I'd been taught," he says, "which was to pump over once or twice a day for 15 days." But over the years, he has gradually done less and less in the winery, which, he says, is "the hardest thing to do." He now typically does just four pumpovers across the entire winemaking process. His wines then age undisturbed in old oak in a vast, 15-meter-high underground chalk cellar, where the natural humidity is 90%. He calls his barrels' resting place "a key tool," and it's one that many of the growers here have at their disposal. Beneath the vineyards lies a vast network of cellars, former quarries for the ubiquitous creamy stone used to build the local houses and famous châteaux. Rousse's other efforts at doing less include gradually moving away from filtration beginning about 10 years ago. His meticulous attention to detail is nonetheless evident, and his wines are structured but delicate, with forward fruit and integrated, silky tannins. Rousse has managed to find the sweet spot between elegance and concentration.
Thierry Germain, the outspoken owner of Domaine des Roches Neuves, in Saumur-Champigny, has winemaking roots in Bordeaux going back six generations. He says, "When I arrived in Saumur, I wanted to make Bordeaux. In the late '80s and early '90s, people liked sweet, ripe, high-alcohol wines like the ones they found in Bordeaux and the south. So I made wines that were very ripe and very oaky." Today, he has rejected new oak altogether and considers it more important to preserve what he calls the fragile character of Cabernet Franc, which he believes is easily lost. High levels of ripeness are no longer on the agenda. "At 14%, Cabernet Franc begins to lose its identity and becomes flat," he argues, adding, "The hardest thing is to find the right maturity of the grape and to preserve its identity."
Germain is well known as one of the earliest to harvest. In 2022, he began picking on September 10, which, he explains, was "10 days before the rest." He is also happy to identify Cabernet Franc as vegetal—but in a good way. "The problem with the word vegetal is that it is always associated with pyrazines and unripeness," he says, "but I use the word a lot, because for me it is linked to fruitiness and florality. We've been taught it's an enemy, but I think of it as an ally." If it sounds as if his wines might taste green, be assured that they don't. But they certainly taste fresh—and very much alive. Like many winegrowers in the region today, Germain produces a range of cuvées from his various parcels to highlight different expressions of Cabernet Franc. He also makes an outstanding Franc de Pied from ungrafted vines. Germain credits his son Louis, working with him since 2018, with showing him that infusion—the current buzzword for gentle tannin extraction—can give the same quantity, but finer quality, of tannins compared with more traditional pumpover techniques.
A New Generation
There is a new generation of talented young Loire winemakers, many with more experience of the outside wine world than their forebears. At Domaine de la Noblaie, in Chinon, Jérôme Billaud took over from his father in 2003, after studying in Dijon and subsequently working for Christian Moueix in Bordeaux and California, followed by a stint at Sacred Hill in New Zealand. He recently participated in a wide-ranging soil survey completed by the French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment, which involved digging numerous soil pits on his land to better understand the terroir. He likens the folded layers that were uncovered to "a lasagna you've pushed your hand into," saying he uses this new understanding of his soils to determine more nuanced picking dates for his wines.
Another local star with an impressive résumé is Bertrand Sourdais, who divides his time between his family property in Chinon, Domaine de Pallus, and his Ribera del Duero winery, Antídoto. He studied at the local wine school in Montreuil-Bellay before collecting experience like stamps in his passport: Bordeaux (Mouton Rothschild, Léoville Las Cases, Nénin) Chile (Santa Rita), and Spain (Alvaro Palacios, Dominio de Atauta). Since taking over the family domain in 2005, he has made an impressive range of wines that come from some of the best sites in the appellation. The style is Loire, but with a definite outside influence: bold, ripe, and confident wines that will likely still be intriguing a decade from now. They are rather like the enigmatic Sourdais, who says, "Cabernet Franc is like Grenache: it can be unbelievable or meh." Clearly, he's aiming for the former.
At Domaine Grosbois, the globe-trotting brothers Nicolas and Sylvain farm 25 hectares to produce wines that have benefited from the pair's collective experience in New Zealand, Chile, Spain, Australia, and Oregon. At the eastern edge of the Chinon appellation, they make fruit-forward wines of exceptional drinkability, most of which do not spend any time in oak. The winemaking formula appears deceptively simple: harvest by hand, destem, drop into a concrete tank. The wines are breathtakingly lovely: fresh and silky, complex and alive, juicy and plump—a veritable showcase of Cabernet Franc finesse. After all their travels, the brothers seem to rejoice in their idyllic home environment, where they raise pigs, cows, and chickens and grow truffle oaks and vegetables alongside their vines. Unusually for this part of France, Domaine Grosbois exports 85% of production, compared with a more typical 25% in the area. Good news travels.
Considering Climate Change
Climate change has had a predictably beneficial effect in this part of the world. The Loire Valley still has a climate that is cool in global terms, but temperatures have been increasing steadily over the last decades. Recent growing seasons have been celebrated for conditions in which it has been easy to ripen grapes: 2018, 2019, 2020, and now 2022. But rising average temperatures have come with consequences: advanced early-season growth means vines are increasingly vulnerable to spring frosts and drastic crop loss. Another result of warming temperatures has been the tendency to pick grapes with higher levels of ripeness and accompanying lower acidity, a combination that puts wines at risk of being out of balance or, worse, faulty. Brettanomyces infection, often associated with winemaking of days past, can still be found surprisingly often. Whether or not it was deliberately sought, it is shrugged off or considered a stylistic choice by some winemakers. The tendency to eschew sulfur use during winemaking has exacerbated the problem. Thierry Germain, who does not appreciate Brett, makes a direct link to grape maturity. "The higher the alcohol and pH, the higher the risk of Brett," he says. He notes that in the warm 2022 vintage, "Brett is everywhere."
The Old Is New
Although much has changed, there are still producers who stick to the tried and trusted methods through which they earned their reputation. At Clos Rougeard, probably the most renowned winery in the Loire Valley, the brothers Foucault were largely ignored locally for decades for failing to follow the trends of their neighbors—whether using agrochemicals and machinery or increasing yields to meet the rising Parisian demand for a fruity, bistro-style Saumur-Champigny. Instead, for 50 years, they did pretty much as they pleased, crafting handmade wines from organically farmed, low-yielding vines, until, eventually, others realized they might be onto something. Prices exploded, and the wines have become virtually unobtainable. Technical Director Jacques-Antoine Toublanc, who has consulted for the estate since the 1990s, says, "People used to hassle me for working for the people who let grass grow in their vineyard." Explaining what goes into the making of the world's most sought-after Cabernet Franc, he says the grapes are handpicked when just ripe. Everything is destemmed, and the grapes are treated with great care. There are no pumpovers. As for extraction, Toublanc says, "Here, maceration has always been infusion. We don't do anything else." The wines age in deep, cool cellars for several years. After the death of Charly Foucault, it was perhaps only a matter of time before the modest winery attracted the attention of a monied buyer, and it remains to be seen if the Bouygues brothers (owners of Château Montrose, among other wineries) will bring a Bordeaux influence to Saumur-Champigny.
Pierre Gauthier, owner of Domaine du Bel Air, was born 50 meters from his Bourgueil vineyard. A veteran winemaker whose first vintage was 1995, Gauthier says he learned everything from his father, with no technical training. "I'm not a revolutionary," he says. "If people have been making wine this way for a thousand years, I'm not about to change it." It may be starting to sound familiar: handpicking, destemming, gentle handling, and, presto, delicious Cabernet Franc. But some things have changed. "Forty years ago, we didn't do much in the vines," says Gauthier. "Now, winegrowers here are more like gardeners. They love their vines." He also controls the temperature of his fermentations, explaining, "It's better for the yeasts and for the aromas." Gauthier is clearly delighted about the recent warmer vintages, even if, like most of his neighbors, he can list the exact dates of all the frosts that have affected his vines.
Pouring a juicy, ripe, and black cherry–scented 2020 cuvée, he says, "Previously, we were only able to make a wine like this every 20 years." His 2018 wines show intensity of fruit across the range but no sensation of excess. "We never lack acidity here," Gauthier notes. Nonetheless, he harvests earlier than most, which is evident not only in his wines' freshness but also in their overall balance: even in a warm vintage like 2018, alcohols are moderate, at 13.5%. His top wines spend up to 30 months in oak and are destined for a long life. His 2018 flagship cuvée, Clos Nouveau, demonstrates aromas of violets and licorice, with silky tannins layered over black fruit intensity. It is easily a 20-year wine. Grand Mont from the same vintage demonstrates toasty, confit, savory fruit and a chalky minerality that lingers on the finish. It's obviously a keeper but already delicious. This is where great Loire Cabernet Franc can offer the best of both worlds. And as Gauthier wryly remarks, "Nobody's going to be angry if you open it now."

Dili takes control of Greater Sunrise project in huge gamble
| Timor-Leste
The fate of the Greater Sunrise gas project in Timor-Leste hangs in the balance after two of the main investors pulled out, selling their equity shares to the government of Timor-Leste. This gives Dili much greater control of the scheme, allowing it to demand that the planned liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant is built on its territory rather than in Australia. Yet it also makes the process of securing the required investment more difficult, casting the entire venture in doubt.
ConocoPhillips agreed to sell its 30% stake in the project and equity in the associated offshore upstream Timorese and Australian blocks to the government of Timor-Leste for $350 million in October. Just one month later, Shell announced that it would sell its 26.56% share for $300 million. About 20% of the field's reserves lie within the Joint Petroleum Development Area (JPDA) with Australia.
The Sunrise and Troubadour gas and condensate fields, which comprise Greater Sunrise, are located roughly 150 km southeast of Timor-Leste. They hold an estimated 5.13 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 225.9 million barrels of condensate. A consortium of Woodside Petroleum, Shell, ConocoPhillips and Osaka Gas decided to develop a LNG project using the reserves but no progress was made for many years because of a maritime territorial dispute between Dili and Canberra.
In March, the two governments signed a maritime boundary delimitation treaty, appearing to break the impasse. However, the thorny question of whether to process the gas at an existing LNG plant at Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory, or at a proposed plant in Timor-Leste continued to dog the scheme. A third option also emerged in the form of a floating LNG (FLNG) vessel that would obviate the need for any transmission pipeline. FLNGs, which are ships with LNG liquefaction, storage and offloading capacity, have only been developed in the past couple of years and are still very rare.
The project consortium was keen to utilise the existing gas pipeline that runs from Timor-Leste's Bayu Undan field, which lies at the opposite corner of the JPDA to Greater Sunrise, to the Darwin LNG plant. Bayu Undan's gas reserves are currently Timor-Leste's main source of income but are expected to become exhausted soon after 2022, which would allow gas from Greater Sunrise to be transported via the line if it were extended across the JPDA. This extension would be shorter and so cheaper than a pipeline from Greater Sunrise to Timor-Leste. In the same way, using the Darwin LNG plant would be far cheaper than building a new liquefaction facility onshore Timor-Leste.
The withdrawal
When the delimitation treaty was concluded in March, the odds seemed slightly in favour of the gas being piped to Darwin rather than Timor-Leste, partly because the former would increase Dili's share of the revenues from 70% to 80% to compensate for the loss of industrial development and job creation via the LNG plant. However, over the course of 2018 it became clear that Timor-Leste was not going to back down over its insistence that it should host the LNG facility. Dili's insistence that the gas be liquefied at a proposed plant at Beaço on the south coast appears to have prompted Shell and ConocoPhillips to pull out of the scheme.
Explaining her company's withdrawal, the chairperson of Shell Australia, Zoe Yujnovich, said: "We respect the Timor-Leste government's determination to develop the Sunrise fields through an onshore LNG facility on its south coast. Although we formed different views about the optimal development scenario, we understand the priorities of the Timor-Leste government and wish it well in pursuing its aspirations to develop this important resource for the nation."
ConocoPhillips also cited differences with the government over the development plan for its decision to divest its stake. The US firm continues to operate the Bayu Undan project and will now focus on identifying alternative sources of supply for its Darwin LNG facility. Xanana Gusmão, Timor-Leste's special representative in the talks and also a former prime minister, commented: "Timor-Leste appreciates Shell's willingness to sell its interests in the Greater Sunrise project…Shell's attitude throughout the negotiations shows that it is ready to consider not only its commercial interests but also the interests of small nations."
If completed as expected, the purchases would give the government a 56.6% stake in the venture, with Australian firm Woodside continuing to operate it with a 33.4% share and Osaka Gas retaining its 10% interest. ConocoPhillips expects its sale to be completed in the first quarter of 2019. Shell has not commented on the timetable for its deal but it is likely to be sometime in the first half of 2019.
The deal must be rubber stamped by the Timorese parliament and the remaining members of the project consortium but there are not expected to be any objections. However, Dili's financial position is incredibly fragile and it has not yet revealed how it will fund its equity acquisitions. With the Bayu Undan reserves set to run out, the pressure on Dili to develop Greater Sunrise to replace them is enormous. Yet it must do so at a time of profound political instability (https://clbrief.com/a-defining-moment-for-timor-leste/)
The big question is whether Shell and Conoco-Phillips' withdrawal will weaken the resolve of Osaka Gas and particularly Woodside to commit themselves to Greater Sunrise. If Woodside pulls out then the project is likely to collapse but if it remains then Dili will still have to persuade the Australian company of its plans. If a development plan is agreed, then the Timorese government must still raise its share of the plant's construction costs. A single LNG production unit, known in the industry as a train, would cost upwards of $5 billion for production capacity of 5 million tonnes a year, while up to four trains have previously been considered.
Dili could effectively mortgage its future LNG revenues by repaying loans taken on to finance construction with LNG revenues, with Beijing the most likely source of finance. Even a concessional loan would be a huge financial gamble, despite the fact that the hydrocarbon reserves on the Greater Sunrise fields are currently valued at up to $65 billion. Dili has also suggested that it could set aside $5 billion from its Petroleum Wealth Fund to finance its share of the project's capital costs, but it will be heavily reliant on the Fund to sustain government spending when the Bayu Undan revenues dry up. In its latest update, the government stated that it had $17.1 billion in its Petroleum Wealth Fund.
The Timorese parliament approved funding of $100 million to finance a feasibility study into the Beaço plant in September, while a floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel will be required on the Greater Sunrise fields. The FPSO will separate condensate and natural gas production and then transfer the condensate to waiting vessels. Condensate is a very light form of crude oil that is used to make fuel. Dili has asked Australian businessman James Rhee to act as a consultant on the project: acting as mediator in negotiations with Woodside and identifying possible sources of funding.
Dili is convinced that the economic benefits of hosting an LNG plant will outweigh a reduced share of revenue. LNG schemes do generate employment but few Timorese currently have the skills and experience needed to take up highly skilled and better paid jobs on the scheme. The Timorese government also wants to build a refinery at the same site.
Australian media have quoted unnamed Australian officials as saying that the project is now doomed, although publically Canberra is supportive. The Beaço pipeline will have to cross the Timor Trough, a 3.5km valley in the seabed, posing significant engineering challenges. Moreover, LNG plants are rarely developed in countries with little or no track record of developing similarly huge projects. This makes the venture more risky for investors. However, an even bigger LNG facility is planned in the far north of Mozambique (clbrief.com/liquefied-success-for-maputo/), which also lacks a track record in project development.
In December, Woodside's chief executive, Peter Coleman, said that his company had not been in talks with Dili over selling its stake and remained committed to the project. However, some press reports in Australia have suggested that he is prepared to only invest in the upstream part of the venture, leaving the government to develop the LNG plant itself. The Australian Financial Review quotes him as saying: "If you disaggregate the project – meaning that the ownership of the onshore plant and the pipeline is different from the upstream – then we can see a pathway to investing in the upstream and that's a model we see in Indonesia and Malaysia that works quite effectively."
The price tags attached to the stakes are huge for Dili but seem low by international standards given the value of the gas reserves. ConocoPhillips' Australia-West president, Chris Wilson, said that the sale price only covers the costs incurred by ConocoPhillips on the project to date. This may be because the possibility of the project never being developed has increased with Dili's insistence on building the LNG plant at Beaço and so this eventuality may have been priced into the value of the stakes. Ignoring this possibility would be a gamble for giant oil companies but this is a gamble that the Timorese government can ill afford. (Macauhub/CLBrief)

Austrian laywoman from what is now called the Tyrol. Notburga was born around 1250 to a poor peasant family. At the age of 18 she was employed as a kitchen maid in the castle of Count Henry of Rattenberg. The family squandered more food on pig-swill than Notburga's parents ate in weeks. She saved all the leftovers from the Count's family table and gave them to the poor. Count Henry's wife did not approve of this and had her dismissed.
Notburga then went to work for a farmer near Eben where she stayed for several years earning a reputation for being very capable and hardworking.
When Count Henry's wife died, his second wife needed a good woman to manage her household and asked for Notburga. The Count speedily brought her back and she stayed with the family until her death in 1313.
Notburga is one of the patron saints of servants. She is remembered for her hard work, charity and prayerfulness. Her relics were placed at the nearby church of St Rupert, in Eben. In 1718 they were placed in a position of honour over the high altar.

In reversal, US poised to approve Abrams tanks for Ukraine

WASHINGTON (AP) — In what would be a reversal, the Biden administration is poised to approve sending M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, U.S. officials said Tuesday, as international reluctance toward sending tanks to the battlefront against the Russians begins to erode. The decision could be announced as soon as Wednesday, though it could take months or years for the tanks to be delivered.
U.S. officials said details are still being worked out. One official said the tanks would be bought under an upcoming Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative package, which provides longer-range funding for weapons and equipment to be purchased from commercial vendors.
The U.S. announcement is expected to come on Wednesday in coordination with an announcement by Germany that it will approve Poland's request to transfer German-made Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine, according to one official. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because the decision has not yet been made public.
Weapons provided through USAI can take many months to several years to reach the battlefield. Much of the aid sent so far has been through a separate program drawing on Pentagon stocks to get weapons more quickly to Ukraine. But even under that program, it would take months to get tanks to Ukraine and to get Ukrainian forces trained on them.
It's also unknown how many tanks would be approved.

Debate about Energy
Published 4 October 2004
Under the title "Debate about Energy", the French newspaper Sud-Ouest printed the following report (dated 8 October 2003) of a debate that had taken place in Saintes on 4 October:
"On Saturday evening 150 people attended the lecture-debate organised by ATTAC and ACDN (Actions of Citizens for Nuclear Disarmament) on the theme 'Nuclear energy, opening of markets, safeguarding the planet - are there other options?'
"Besides representatives of these two Saintes-based groups, a member of the 'Sortir du nucleaire' (Out of the Nuclear Age) network and of CGT-Energy spoke in the debate, which included active public participation. At the end of the evening the members of ACDN made a candle-lit march to the Memorial to the Dead and laid a wreath. This action was taken to mark the International Week of opposition to the nuclearisation of space."
Let us add that the ACDN spokesperson, during his speech about "the military issues and the civilian risks of the nuclear option", drew attention to the fate of Mordecai Vanunu, the Israeli technician who has been languishing in prison for 17 years because he revealed to the English-speaking press the military purposes of Israel's nuclear installation at Dimona, where he had worked. There is also an international campaign pressing for him to be released. This time last year, ACDN wrote to Israel's ambassador in Paris in support of this campaign, but there has still been no reply. We continue to ask for Mordecai Vanunu's freedom: since nuclear weapons are instruments for crimes against humanity, his stand does honour to the conscience of Israel. Besides, the 200-350 nuclear warheads which Israel is said to possess are a secret to nobody, and its former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Simon Peres has openly admitted that Israel is indeed a nuclear power.
Long before the facts discovered by the IAEA in Iraq and North Korea and its suspicions regarding other states like Iran, the case of Israel proved that nuclear research and its "peaceful" applications are frequently a cover and a means for acquiring military technology. This was the case for India and Pakistan. It was also, and still is, the case for France. The diffusion of nuclear technologies, encouraged by the Non-Proliferation Treaty and actively promoted by France, is in fact contributing to a military proliferation which the NPT is not managing to halt (although it was conceived for this purpose). This is made worse by the fact that the five official nuclear weapons states who signed it fail to respect their "unequivocal undertaking" made under article VI to proceed to the elimination of their own arsenals. In 2005 the NPT will have to be radically revised, so as to impose a strict respect for this undertaking, and so as to replace, for developing countries as for industrialised countries, the "right to peaceful uses of nuclear energy" with a "right to non-nuclear technologies and to renewable energy."
This very important question will be on the agenda of the second "Nuclear Disarmament Days" which will take place at Venissieux near Lyon (France) on October 24-26.

It's raining! Quick, everyone, find cover! Unfortunately, you can't find cover against this guy. By.Sun was initially a third round draft by MBC Game HERO back in 2009. He then went on to switch over to SK Telecom T1 in January of 2010. From then on, By.Sun became a big asset to the T1 roster. Here are some of the things By.Sun achieved back in his BW days: He won Rookie of the Year in December of 2011 and accomplished an all kill against Hwaseung Oz in the finals of the STX Master Cup, taking out sHy, Jaedong, Killer, HiyA. While he was most definitely a valuable player to SKT T1, playing for them numerous times in ProLeague and getting T1 victories, he was never able to make a big splash in any individual tournaments. However, with T1's transition to SC2, Sun decided to step it up big time. (his name change from Sun to Rain occurred during the BW times, not because of his transition to SC2) Sweeping his way through the WCS/OSL/GSL qualifiers, Rain made the elephant in the room come alive and stomped everyone in front of him. Look out for Rain! He's going to make you all so wet.
Of course the decision wasn't made by rain. It was made by MLG and Kespa over whatever contract they signed together. It's also the reason why Kespa players can only play MLG events and not other foreign events.
sign me up.. he is amazing. Currently my favorite protoss!
Also, I think it's unfair to say he achieved "jack squat" in BW. He got Rookie of the Year award for one thing, and was a very key player in SKT's lineup. He helped SKT reach 2 Grand Finals, winning each time he got sent. It only took him about a year to make it into SKT's main lineup, whereas the average progamer took about 2-3 years to break into the A team.
I would say he just had unfortunate timing to be a BW progamer, when leagues were very scarce due to MBC shutting down and OSL seasons getting delayed. The enormous amount of talent he had was undeniable and was mostly held back by his weaker mentality (due to being so young). He was noted by Bisu and others to be an exceptionally quick learner, and is a huge reason why he's done so well in SC2 compared to other KeSPA players.
Signed! Most entertaining toss player i saw so far in sc2.
Sign me up! Good luck tonight!
Sign me up. Most impressing of the KeSPA players so far IMO.
games vs TaeJa is amazing!!!

Capital campaign's pilot wave paves the way for Wave 2

People are stepping up to support priests in their retirement, the education of seminarians, and their own parishes through the Diocese of Davenport's Upon This Rock capital campaign. The pilot wave of 16 parishes is winding down and the second of three waves starts this fall.
The pilot wave has pledges at 47% of the total goal, which is very encouraging, says Development Director Michael Hoffman. People's participation "validates the needs of the campaign. Every gift given, no matter the amount, goes a long way." He reminds the faithful that they can make a sacrificial gift over a three-year period or pay at one time.
Father Jim Betzen, C.PP.S., says the success of the diocesan capital campaign at St. Mary of the Visitation Parish in Ottumwa is the result of volunteer leadership, putting a face on the campaign and showing a visible improvement project. St. Mary, one of the pilot wave parishes, has pledged 93% of its $477,944 goal for the campaign.
Parishioners Rhonda Conrad and Ted Haas led a team of 25 lay volunteers, which was very helpful to the campaign that kicked off in April, Father Betzen said. In promoting the campaign, he explained to parishioners that all dioceses conduct capital campaigns to support their retired priests, future priests and for funding of parish projects. "That's how I pitched it: 'You're helping retired diocesan priests and retired Precious Blood priests. You're helping to educate future priests.'" Finally, the concrete work on the church driveway and parking lot completed during the campaign is something "parishioners could see."
Father Betzen also knew the benefits of putting a face on the campaign from his experience with such fundraising efforts. He recalled for parishioners the previous pastors who had served them well at St. Mary and reminded them that newly ordained Father Dale Mallory would begin serving the parish in September.
The pastor was especially appreciative of the parish's Chuukese community (from the Federated States of Micronesia) for contributing as families and as a community. On July 10, some 60 Chuukese arrived at the church for lunch and brought in bags of rice, frozen chicken and other foodstuffs to raffle off afterwards. "They raffled it off with rolls of $1 tickets. By 9 o'clock that night, they had raised $3,620. Every 20 or 30 minutes they'd raffle off some of the goodies," Father Betzen said, amazed by how much the small community raised. "It was a good way to see the community in action."
Knowing that the Hispanic community and the Chuukese community make donations in cash, he spoke separately with representatives of each community about the importance of the campaign and then distributed envelopes to collect cash donations, which parishioners placed in the collection basket during Mass.
When the capital campaign began at St. Mary Parish in Wilton, Parish Life Coordinator Deacon Dan Freeman was new in his role there. Two parish council members stepped up to serve as team leaders and "were instrumental in helping to set the tone of the capital campaign," he said. The team leaders identified nine volunteers to make direct contact with fellow parishioners, which "helped us go over our goal," he said.
Initially, there was some pushback. "But as people found out the extent, purpose and intent of the campaign, most were openly supportive." Parishioners understood priests have medical bills and deserve retirement income. "People know these priests and appreciated their service. They also understand the financial burden a college education can be for future seminarians. They know that if they do not support them now, there might not be priests to serve us in the future."
The funds that St. Mary earns from the campaign will help enhance the Mass experience for parishioners through an updated and improved sound system and possibly adapters for the hearing impaired. "We will also look at the possible purchase and installation of lighting in the new north parking lot. A third item includes promoting and providing faith formation activities and materials for all ages in the parish," Deacon Freeman said. "The parishioners of St. Mary are so very generous and giving in many ways. They are family as they reach out to one another and to all in need … their example is contagious."
Father Timothy Armbruster, C.PP.S, pastor of St. Patrick Parish in Melrose, said one anonymous donor pledged a significant donation during the capital campaign's silent phase gift process. Aside from that generous gift, the parish continues to support the campaign, having reached nearly 70% of goal.
St. Patrick Parish will use its portion of funds for some updating and improvement projects in the various parish buildings. "We continue to assess the needs of the parish and look to be good stewards in responding to those needs the best we can," he said.
Parishioners of Sacred Heart Cathedral in Davenport have participated in several campaigns in recent years, including the cathedral's diocesan center, reconstruction of the cathedral's front stairs, and window covering issues among other projects, said Father Thom Hennen, the pastor.
He and the parish finance council all agreed that the cathedral parish should participate in the pilot wave of the capital campaign because "we felt we are the cathedral and we need to be in the lead group."
Cathedral parishioners Jack and Anna Harris took the lead and recruited many others to help spread the word and campaign workload. The diocesan video "was excellent and set a very positive attitude among the parishioners," Father Hennen said. The Vietnamese community "came out in force" to help the parish reach its goal as well, which he appreciates.
Father Hennen said the campaign's components — supporting priests in retirement, seminarians in education and parishes in their needs — sold themselves. "We need to take care of those who took care of us," he added, referring to diocesan priests. The video showed priests such as Father Tom Stratman, a retired diocesan priest who served at the cathedral from 1994-96 and was in residence early in his retirement. Seeing his and other familiar faces was helpful. "He also baptized me in Ottumwa," Father Hennen pointed out.
With its share of campaign funds, the parish would like to replace the doors facing 10th Street, with hardware as close as possible to the look of the cathedral. In addition, the lower level of the diocesan center "needs some sprucing up," Father Hennen said. The small conference room is good for small meetings and the diocesan hall is great for larger crowds, but those groups that fit in between could use a "medium space" room. Other potential projects include youth engagement, he said.

Iranian lawyer who defended women protesters gets 7 years

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran's Judiciary said it sentenced a prominent human rights lawyer to seven years in prison after she defended protesters against the Islamic Republic's mandatory headscarves for women.
However, Reza Khandan, the husband of 55-year-old Nasrin Sotoudeh, said on Facebook that his wife's verdict was delivered to her in jail and that it was "five years imprisonment for her first case and 33 years imprisonment with 148 lashes for the second case." He did not elaborate.
Earlier today, Iran's semi-official ISNA news agency reported that Judge Mohammad Moghiseh had sentenced Sotoudeh to five years for "plotting against the state" and two more years for insulting Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
It's unclear when the sentencing took place.
Last week, an Iranian activist group that's based abroad reported that Sotoudeh was convicted. Her sentencing has been widely criticized.
She has 20 days to appeal the verdict.
Sotoudeh previously served three years in prison for her activism and was released in 2013. She was arrested again last June.
The headscarf, or hijab, is mandatory for all women in Iran.

'Give the earth back to itself. Give men's bodies back to themselves. Give women's bodies back to themselves.'
'A woman moves alone through a natural landscape. As she moves she communes with her environment through touch, through her presence, through who she is, how she is and what she does. She is completely at one with nature. Her actions describe and prescribe, they teach by example how to live and exist in accordance with the laws of nature and all of life on earth. This woman is luminous, radiant. She is an embodiment of a living connection between humanity, the earth and the whole of nature. In her actions, her energy and her relationship with her environment, she personifies the wholeness and sacredness between humanity, nature and the earth.'
'How is it that I can dream of falling from a great height and landing on my butt, and then I wake up and feel as if my ass has been kicked by a horse and feel like my butt is bruised all day?'
'The body is a symbol of the mind.. Deeply and genuinely felt emotion, and any genuinely felt thought, is expressed through our whole organism.. The universal symbol is rooted in the properties of the body, our senses, and our mind, which is common to all people, and not restricted to individual or specific groups…Indeed, the language of the universal symbol is the one common tongue developed by the human race, a language which it forgot before it succeeded in developing a universal conventional language.' Erich Fromm: 'The Forgotten Language: An Introduction to the Language of Dreams, Myths and Fairy tales.'
'Metaphor is the language of the Virgin. Virgin, as we are using the word, is an image of the soul, the eternal part of us that takes up residence in the body for a few years and connects to the world through the orifices of the body. Soul is from a different reality than body. It is eternal. It hears with eternal ears, sees with eternal eyes, smells with eternal nose – its Presence resonates with that other dimension. It has no language but the language of the transitory body. Therefore, it speaks in imagery – the only way it can communicate eternal truths to beings who are both eternal and temporal. It can speak through music, paint, clay, marble, arches and domes, arabesques and leaps, gardens and other creative forms. Right now we are attempting to understand the power of metaphorical language – a language that our culture dismisses at its peril.' Marion Woodman 'Dancing in the Flames' and 'The Dark Goddess and the New Mythology'
'Since psyche and matter are contained in one and the same world, and moreover are in continuous contact with one another and ultimately rest on irrepresentable, transcendental factors, it is not only probable, but fairly probable even, that psyche and matter are two different aspects of one and the same thing…' Carl Gustav Jung 'On the Nature of the Psyche'
'Thus space-time and energy are complementary descriptors of events, and in a similar manner synchronicity and causality are complementary to each other. They deal, just as energy and space-time do, with events. These events are marked by their psychic component as well as their physical component. Here is the crux of the matter: our Western consciousness has taken as meaningful only those events that are labeled causal. By losing track of or dismissing this other dimension of meaningfulness, we actually become unconscious of much of the universe.' Fred Alan Wolf: The Dreaming Universe
'The reason that the notion of synchronicity has been so difficult for us to grasp is that it is linked to the feminine principle. …causality corresponds to what we would call memory – the linking up of events that are not occurring now, with events that are. This process necessarily takes us out of the here and now and into our heads – our intellect so to speak. Unlike causality, synchronicity is affective rather than intellectual. It is a a realization of a deep connection that can immediately be broken by logical dictate… to the extent that we can say causality becomes death-like as a result of analysis, synchronicity becomes alive as as a result of experience – coming to our senses.' Fred Alan Wolf: The Dreaming Universe
'The experimenter cannot detach herself from her experiment; the thinker cannot separate himself from his thoughts. The observer is as much a participant in an event as the observed… the particular way in which we choose to observe quantum reality partly determines what we shall see…. If consciousness operates in a quantum-mechanical way, then every shift in consciousness has the potential for creating a new reality. In any situation, the level of consciousness of the participants is of immense importance… who we are and what we are observing, consciously and unconsciously, influence what is happening in our body.'

Grab an Apple and Get Ready for the "Crunch Heard Around the State"
More than 800,000 students in schools across Maryland are set to take a synchronized crunch into an apple at 9:15 Wednesday morning. While not just for students, the Hear the Maryland Crunch Initiative is intended to promote school breakfast. Credit: Sipa/Pixabay.com.
BALTIMORE - More than 800,000 students in school districts across Maryland, along with Catholic schools in Baltimore, are set to take a synchronized crunch into an apple at 9:15 Wednesday morning.
The Hear the Maryland Crunch initiative promotes school breakfast, along with the message that every child in Maryland should have access to a healthy breakfast every day.
Michael J. Wilson, director of Maryland Hunger Solutions, says a nutritious start to the day is also part of the fight against childhood obesity.
"This is really meant to symbolize how everyone should start the day with a healthy breakfast, especially kids," he says. "School breakfast programs are critical in that regard."
Nearly 57 percent of low-income students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches in Maryland are also served breakfast at school. Wilson says the goal is to boost that rate to at least 70 percent.
According to Wilson, one way to increase participation is for schools to move breakfast out of the cafeteria and into the classroom, or offer grab-and-go options in school hallways. He adds that the benefits of breakfast for students are well-documented.
"Success academically, health-wise, socially, attendance," he says. "It's a win-win-win for all of us."
Wilson notes the Maryland Crunch isn't just for students. Everyone in the state is invited to bite into an apple Wednesday morning, and share photos on social media with the hashtag #HearTheCrunch.

Underneath DataMapper (at least if you haven't bitten the NoSQL bullet just yet) lies DataObjects. DataObjects is an attempt to rewrite existing Ruby database drivers to conform to one, standard interface. If you're a recent arrival from the world of PHP or .Net, then the DO API will not look too disimilar to either PDO or ADO.net.
Late this spring, tucked away in the DataObjects' Release Notes for version 0.9.12, was mention of support for JRuby. Unfortunately the support that featured in 0.9.12 was incomplete at best. We needed a little longer to get things working well, but over the summer we made significant progress in supporting a large number of databases on the JRuby platform.
For a long while, I had a Gist up on Github illustrating the steps needed to get up and running with DataMapper on JRuby. I promised to follow up with a more detailed tutorial, but it's taken some time to get it published. In part, this has been down to the fact that going through the process of writing a tutorial has helped me uncover a plethora of bugs and inconsistencies, and I wanted to take the time to deal with them before hitting the metaphorical "publish" button. In any case, I hope this will be the first of many future Ruby postings.
For the purposes of this tutorial, I am using Merb as the MVC Framework, but you should also be able to use Rails, Camping, or Sinatra.
If you are running a recent version of Mac OS X, you should already have both the Java Runtime Environment and Java Development Kit (JDK). Apple supplies their own set of Java tools (although the Soylatte implementation is available if you want Java 6 on Tiger and Leopard 32-bit machines).
On Windows or a Linux distribution, you will likely already have the Java Runtime Environment, but unless you've been doing Java development, you may be without the JDK. The JDK is available from Sun's Java downloads page.
We generally test against the latest stable version of JRuby. I've also tested against v1.2.0, but I'd recommend being on 1.3.1 or 1.4.0. Installing JRuby is as simple as downloading and decompressing the distributed .zip/.tar.gz file (or running the new .exe installer, if you're on Windows).
Verbose installation instructions for JRuby are now available on the Data Objects' wiki.
On Windows for example, this would mean adding C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_16\bin to PATH. Again, more verbose instructions can be found in the wiki.
A major requirement in developing DataObjects'/DataMapper's JDBC support was parity in the installation procedure. Installing on JRuby should be just as easy as for MRI / 1.9.
That's it! Unlike with ActiveRecord, you don't have to specify a separate JDBC variant.
However, for the purpose of these instructions and because our JRuby support is still developing at a rapid pace (for instance, our SQL Server support is only available in our Git repository), we'll cover installing the edge version of DataObjects / DataMapper.
Note: Under Windows Vista/7, if you've used the JRuby installer and have your system gems directory in C:\Program Files\ then you may have to run cmd.exe with Administrator privileges (Start -> type cmd.exe, right click, Run as Administrator).
Note: On *NIX platforms, you may need to prefix commands with sudo, depending on where you installed jruby (unless, of course, you're using rvm).
Extlib is a collection of extensions to core Ruby classes and is currently used by both the DataMapper and Merb projects. However, it'll go away in future versions as we start to take advantage of the new, modular ActiveSupport in Rails 3.0.
do_jdbc: DataObjects' JDBC support library. This is a Java library, packaged as a Jar, and then wrapped up as a RubyGem.
the JDBC driver: the database vendor's driver using the JDBC API. Also a Java Jar, and in most cases, available wrapped up as RubyGems.
the actual DataObjects' driver: written in Java and relies on the above two libraries at runtime. Compiled against do_jdbc.
If you're on Oracle, then you need to place the Oracle JDBC driver ojdbc14.jar in your Java load path. Read Raimond's blog article for more instructions.
Change to the project directory of your choice and use the merb-gen generator to create a "jump-start" Merb application. DataMapper is the default ORM for this generator type.
Before you run the application, make sure the dependency versions in config/dependencies.rb correspond with the "edge" versions you just installed.
Open config/dependencies.rb in your favourite text editor.
Note: The next major version of Merb, 1.1, will completely replace the dependency handling mechanism described here with Yehuda Katz's (wycats) Bundler. It's technically possible to use the Bundler with Merb 1.0.x series, but for concision, I won't elaborate on doing that here.
Before adding in any customisations of your own, check you're able to run the application.
Here I start to get lazy. Bereft of ideas, and starting to think about needing to cook, I decided to create a simple Recipe tracker. While introducing some of the cooler (and defining) DataMapper features will have to wait until a future article, this simple child-parent model should be immediately familiar to anyone who's done basic web development.
Here I'm sorry to say we're going to cheat (yet again!). We're not actually going to spend any time building a UI, but instead we'll rely on merb-admin, a project that automatically generates an admin front-end similar to Django, the Python web application framework.
Visit http://localhost:4000/admin, or if you're running with glassfish, http://localhost:3000/admin.
You should have now have an application with a (very) simple interface for adding recipes and ingredients.
You can find the source code for this application on GitHub.
That's it for now! Please leave a comment and let me know what (if anything) was useful, so that I can focus my efforts for future articles.

Probe on after clip of Saharanpur district hospital nurse taking bribe goes viral
Ishita Bhatia | TNN | Updated: Jan 8, 2020, 11:58 IST
MEERUT: The administration of Saharanpur district hospital on Tuesday ordered a probe after a video of a nurse purportedly taking bribe from a patient in the emergency ward went viral on social media.
Officials said a panel of two doctors has been formed to check the veracity of the video, as the management has claimed that the nurse was not on duty at the emergency ward at the time of recording the incident.
"A video has come to the fore, wherein a permanent employee – a staff nurse—at the district hospital, Sita, was caught on camera taking bribe from a patient. The time and date of the video is not clear, and it looks like it was shot in December-end. An inquiry has been set up with two senior doctors on the panel," said Dr SK Varshney, superintendent-in-chief, Saharanpur district hospital.
Meanwhile, the nurse has been removed from the position until the inquiry is completed.
The video purportedly shows nurse Sita taking money from the patient and telling the latter to come to her for any kind of help.
BS Sodhi, chief medical officer, Saharanpur, said, "The superintendent-in-chief of the district hospital has set up an inquiry. If the nurse is found guilty, then strict action will be taken."


We are determined to fulfill the will of God in this earth. Jesus prayed, "thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." The replication of heaven on earth will come through ministries being culturally aware, socially relevant, and kingdom minded. We believe this will bring a reformation from heaven that can serve as the foundation of a revival. This is the missing link in terms of what must first happen in our society. Revival and awakening bring people into the church, reformation places both godly saints and systems into every facet of culture.
God is interested in one thing - that the principalities, powers and rulers of the darkness of this age be broken in the gates so that the gospel will penetrate every facet of society. We are to possess the gates. That means that the Word of God should be standard for everything the gates represent and control. Not only in the church, but in economics, business, science, education and politics.

La Piedra Trail and Little Tesuque Trail
La Piedra and Little Tesuque Trails: Click on image for larger version
The La Piedra Trail and the Little Tesuque Trail serve to link "the city to the sky," connecting from Dale Ball Trails north toward the Winsor National Recreational Trail and other national forest trails via Santa Fe County Open Space. They are named for two water courses along the way: the Arroyo de la Piedra and Little Tesuque Creek.
The map at right was created to extend the Dale Ball Trails scheme of numbered junctions with Junctions A through F on the La Piedra and Little Tesuque Trails. For a .pdf version, see La Piedra and Little Tesuque Junction Map. The two trails are also shown along with Dale Ball Trails, Dorothy Stewart Trail, and Atalaya Trail in the City of Santa Fe's Foothill Trails Map 2015.
Creating the La Piedra Trail
Hiking the new La Piedra trail from the Dale Ball trailhead at Sierra del Norte and Hyde Park Road up and over the hills and down into Little Tesuque Creek represents a journey of great collaboration. On June 1, 2012, the day before National Trails Day, we gathered at the same trailhead to celebrate the official opening of this new trail. Dale Ball, the father of one of the city's most beloved trail systems was on hand to help cut the ribbon. His actions came full circle on this day as our desire to link the city's lower trails with the higher elevation trails in the national forest became reality.
The completion of the trail connection and dedication of over 50 acres of associated open space is a real boon to the community. The success of this conservation project would never have been possible if it were not for the generosity of many community minded individuals coming together both privately and professionally for a common goal that was bigger than any of us; in this case the outcome was far greater than could have been achieved by individual action. Plus it can be a lot more fun working with one another!
La Piedra Thank You to Contributors & Workday Photos
The La Piedra Trail now provides three miles of new recreational public trails connecting Dale Ball Trail North with the Little Tesuque Creek Trail. The trail allows trail users the opportunity to enjoy breath-taking views of the Tesuque Valley as well as shaded forests of piñon and ponderosa pines as the trail winds its way through diverse terrain and alongside cool, running creeks.
This link, connecting urban foothill trails with the Santa Fe National Forest and the 13,000-foot high peaks of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains high above Santa Fe, enhances and expands the hiking, trail running and mountain biking experience for those who take to the trails each and every day. The La Piedra Trail promises to be one of the most important non-motorized trail connections in Santa Fe.
Since the founding of our city over 400 years ago, trail access to the mountains – and nature – has been important to residents and visitors alike. However, with increased development on private land, the construction of paved roads and the continued practice of fencing lands, all of the major routes over natural surfaces have either been closed to the public or abandoned altogether. Our goal is to reestablish this lost connection by constructing a new trail link: connecting the city to the sky. The many public and private partnerships between the land trust, landowners and our public agency partners make this project unique; there is no other private entity like the Santa Fe Conservation Trust in Santa Fe working on important public trail issues of this magnitude.

After a grueling hiring process, Digit, the digital creative agency of DM9 JaymeSyfu, has welcomed three budding digital talents into the agency – Carlo Herrera, Dominique Tiu, and Camille Robles as Copy Writer, Account Manager, and Social Media Manager, respectively.
"We've been doing interviews and endlessly sifting through resumes for the last three months to look for the best people to join the team," Carlo Ople, Di9it managing director & partner.
More than talent, Ople shared that having the hunger is crucial to keep pace with the rapidly evolving digital landscape.
"More than just the expertise we were looking for people that are growth-oriented. In digital things change quickly and we need people who are like sponges that just keep learning everyday. We have saying here that the real digital experts are forever digital students and I believe we got the right ones with Carlo, Dominique, and Camille," he shares.
Below is a short bio of the young guns lifted from Di9it's official blog.
Herrera came from MRM where he was initially hired as a Digital Art Director. His passion and aptitude for writing kept resurfacing as he took as on copy writing volunteer work while constantly learning about the craft by reading and practicing. This led him to eventually shifting to becoming a Copy Writer (still in MRM) where he worked on several blue chip accounts such as Coca-Cola, Jollibee, and Nestle Kit Kat as a Copy Writer.
A very familiar face in the blogging circuit, Dominique Tiu made a name for herself as an iconic fashion blogger. Unknown to most she actually had a thriving career in GMA as one of their Key Account Managers where she was consistently hitting her quota targets. Seeing the strong demand for digital, she eventually made the decision to shift career tracks but armed already with a wealth of knowledge she gained and continues to hone from being a blogger and a digital influencer.
With 6 years of industry experience under her belt, Camille Robles can be considered one of the pioneers of social media and community management in the country. She started her career in Yehey! and eventually moved to iHub Media. She's done content management and social media strategy for a variety of top companies including Ayala Land, J.CO Donuts, Mead Johnson, and Nivea.

MILAN (Reuters) - Italy's Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio told an Italian paper the country's public deficit could exceed the European Union's ceiling of 3 percent of gross domestic product next year to fund spending measures promised before the vote.
"I do not exclude (breaching the 3 percent limit), everything is possible. But we can't say it now, we are working at the budget law," Di Maio told Il Fatto Quotidiano on Tuesday.
Di Maio reiterated that the government is aiming at nationalizing toll motorways, which are currently managed by Autostrade per l'Italia, controlled by Milan-listed Atlantia (ATL.MI).

Q: How can i exclude pinned post from user profile in praw this is my code
username = "dijkmeneer"

user_feed = reddit.redditor(username).new()

most_recent_item = next(user_feed)

last_activity_date = datetime.utcfromtimestamp(most_recent_item.created_utc)
today = datetime.utcnow()
print(today)
print(last_activity_date)
time_delta = (today - last_activity_date)
total_seconds = time_delta.total_seconds()
minutes = total_seconds/60
hours = minutes/60
days = hours/24

print(total_seconds)
if days > 10 :
    print('last activity longer ago than 10 days')

else:
    print("last activity younger than 10 days")

how do I make my code so it skips over pinned posts?
I have already tried using
most_recent_item = next(x for x in user_feed if not x.stickied)

and
user_feed = reddit.redditor(username).new(sticky=False)

both don't work.
Thanks for your help in advance!

Q: Trigger fullscreen mode in macvim I'd like to set some properties when entering the fullscreen mode in MacVim automatically. E.g. toggle linenumber, set columns, etc.
Is it possible to trigger the fullscreen mode ín MacVim?

A: Unfortunately, there is no full screen autocmd.  What I've done in the past for this sort of thing is to have a ToggleFullScreen() function that sets things the way I want, and undoes them when I toggle again.  I typically set up a mapping for this sort of thing, or at least a command with a shorter name.


In addition, two students -- Makayla Dawkins (Hillhouse) and Thomas Rudden (Fairfield Prep) - were the recipients of the Bill O'Brien Community Service scholarships. Each received $500.
Thomas took a leap of faith by creating an organization called REIGNS. Its title stands for the Respect, Education, and Inclusion of Gay and Non-Binary Students, and provides a safe space at school for LGBTQ students to feel validated and loved by peers, faculty, and the school. REIGNS helps to improve the school environment through dialogue, education, and inclusion.
Makayla is a student representative on both the New Haven and State Boards of Education. She is currently leading a project and will present to the state board at the end of my term that focuses on the arts, team building, and other coping strategies through trauma and healing workshops for her peers. One of the workshops would be "Creating and Calming" which would be in the form art therapy. This will give people the opportunity to express themselves beyond the traditional mode of talk therapy without the worry of financial barriers or the stigma around seeking assistance for mental health support.

Q: #1241 - Operand should contain 1 column(s) In the following query am trying to get one image per category
SELECT  l.*
FROM    (
   SELECT  id AS category_id,
           COALESCE(
           (
           SELECT  *
           FROM    images li
           WHERE li.category_id = dlo.id

           ORDER BY
                       li.save_status DESC, li.category_id DESC, li.id DESC
           LIMIT 1
           ), 0) AS mid
   FROM    cats_imgs dlo where id='1'
   ) lo
JOIN    images l
ON      l.save_status = '3'
   AND l.category_id >= lo.category_id
   AND l.category_id <= lo.category_id
   AND l.id >= lo.mid

but keep getting the following error :
#1241 - Operand should contain 1 column(s)

Any ideas ?

A: replace * with a single column for images li

A: I had a similar problem.  Your 3rd level select statement (SELECT  * FROM    images li) needs to return a single value, since the 2nd level select statement (SELECT  id AS category_id,COALESCE( ...) is expecting only one value in its place holder.
For my case, it worked.  Here I also averaged the data from a second based table (SecondBasis) to the values in the one minute basis table (MinuteBasis):
SELECT MinuteBasis.time, MinuteBasis.avg_t, MinuteBasis.avg_p,MinuteBasis.avg_t2,
  (SELECT avg(SecondBasis.m1)
   FROM SecondBasis
   WHERE SecondBasis.time BETWEEN MinuteBasis.time AND addtime (MinuteBasis.time,'0 0:00:59'))
  (SELECT avg(SecondBasis.m2)
   FROM SecondBasis
   WHERE SecondBasis.time BETWEEN MinuteBasis.time AND addtime (MinutBasis.time,'0 0:00:59'))
FROM MinuteBasis
WHERE MinuteBasis.time BETWEEN '2012-05-02 8:30:00' AND '2012-05-02 8:44:59' ;

Okay, this seems to be the moment everyone was talking about for the past....while. BTS is back for one more go around for their album compilation of The Most Beautiful Moment in Life. I think this is the conclusion to this story, and I'm excited to see how it turns out. If you didn't know, BTS is the 7-member boy group under BigHit Entertainment and they have been blowing up the charts since their first release of last year, "I Need U". Since then they've released 2 additional music videos in 2015, and now we are lucky enough to receive another video right now called "Fire". Let's get into it.
That music video was lit! Literally! But honestly, the music video was actually quite boring compared to their last few videos. Pretty much all they were doing was setting stuff on fire and making a music video that looked a lot like iKon's "What's Wrong". But that's not a bad thing because that was my favorite iKon music video. I wasn't quite sure of what the message was behind this. Maybe that boys play with fire. But I think the most confusing part was at the end after everything's over, the screen reads "Boy Meets What". I'm not sure what that was.
The song was actually lit in my opinion. That song was addicting and catchy as hell and might be a good competitor against "Dope" which ironically and egotistically they were playing at the beginning of the video. Nothing wrong with putting pride in yourself though. Does this video continue from where "Run" left off though? That's my real question. The song was a fast paced, high energy, clubbing song. I dug it really quick and will continue to listen to it for a while after.
That's my review of "Fire" by BTS. What are your thoughts about the music video? Did you like it? Of course you liked it because you're all ARMYs. But really, what was your favorite part? Please like, comment, and share this post and don't forget to follow me on social media.
Thanks for always supporting me! And I'll see ya in the next one! Which will probably be AKMU! Can't wait!

Shah Rukh Khan may not be a good dancer. However, he has an abundance of charm to compensate for that. A recent video has surfaced online where Shah Rukh Khan is dancing with fans during Lux Golden Rose Awards night. But before that happened, SRK took to the stage with Deepika Padukone and Madhuri Dixit.
The actor danced to Jabra Fan with the beautiful ladies. And then, at the after party, SRK really let his hair down. The actor seems to have transported the crowd into another world. People around Shah Rukh Khan appeared to be hypnotised by actor's carefree dance and energy. The lucky ones got a chance of sharing the dance floor with SRK. Though you could barely hear any voice with loud music playing in the background, SRK clearly seems to enjoy every moment there.

Tempo earned itself a little pub over the weekend, when the Times became briefly enamored with the $500,000 building hologram in the sales office (what slowdown?). But to us, the building is most notable for being the site of a long-vacant temple. Yes, Tempo was a temple. But now, in the no man's land of East 23rd Street (well, there is a McDonald's), the only praying going on is for young buyers to still have the means to pony up for new-construction condos. We say young, because the "smart wired" apartments, Tempo Fitness gym and the high-in-the-sky Up Tempo hangout area (grass beds!) all reek of vigor. Other sharable amenities abound, because if folks are going to plant their flags on East 23rd Street, they should probably stick together.
