Rangamati ((Bengali: রাঙামাটি(2008) is a Bengali movie was released in 2008. Directed by Kanoj Das, the movie featured Amitabh Bhattacharjee, Sreela Majumdar, Soumitra Chatterjee, Pratim Chattopadhyay and Kunal Mitra.
The story of the movie revolves around a village named Simulpur, which is entirely submerged into superstition and corruption. The village head or Morol Moshai Harimohan babu (Soumitra CHatterjee) is a corrupted, power centric and pervert person. In order to capture the lands of the villagers he implies a different plan, he announces that the family practices witchcraft with the help of a "gunin" and either kills them or force them out of village. The villagers solely believe in witches, ghosts and spirits. In that village lives Babulal (Amitabha Bhattacharya) who loves his wife Parul (Sangeeta) extremely. But Babulal's mother continuously tortures her as she hasn't give birth of any child even after 6 years of their marriage. She believes that her daughter-in-law is a witch and takes help of the "gunin". As Harimohan Babu conspired against Parul to capture her father's property, he advised "gunin" to announce her as a witch. As the "gunin" does so, to save herself from the rage of the villagers jumps into a river. Dr. Sen (Kunal Mitra) finds Parul lying unconscious and admits her at the Govt. hospital. In this meantime a group of social workers come to the village to free it from superstition. As they continue their work to make the villagers aware of their wrong thinking and superstitious mentality, the doctor informs Parul that its due to her husband's deficiency she can never become a mother. So desperate Parul decides to become a mother of the baby of doctor instead of Babulal. As Parul become pregnant the villagers realize that she was never a witch and that "gunin" had told them all rubbish. In this meantime being trapped by a social worker Ishani (Shrila Majumdar) accepts that it all was a plan of Harimohan babu. So, ultimately police arrest old Harimohan Babu and on the other hand Parul gives birth to a baby boy. After showing the villagers a new ray of hope the social worker go back to Kolkata and the movie reaches its happy ending.

It was Vancouver heavy and I expected as much - it was a nice throwback to the '09 tour though. I'm still not really a fan of Stu but the band are tight. Tv recordings are never exemplary, but Matt sounded fine.

I've used TheFreeVPN for something like this in the past, but the last time I tried it, their Canada-based VPN was down. Plus, I didn't like how it changed my browsers' home page to something that served me their ads. (Then again, it was free.)

I received this unexpected video gift in my inbox yesterday. A guy named Paul Anders is playing the cajon while I'm doing a song I wrote called I Am the Blues on a Yamaha electronic piano. The beginning was chopped off, but I'm posting it anyway, since it's the first thing I've posted musically other than solo piano since having miraculously been resurrected from the Grave of Homelessness after twelve years of turning over in it.
You can click on the song title above for the complete lyrics. By the way, this is from last Friday's Open Mike at the One World Cafe, and the person who videoed it was Brandy Sullivan, the co-owner of that venue.
Great song and well done Andy.
Thanks Andy. I'll try to get around to it but I have half a dozen things on the creative agenda at the moment.
I'm thinking of reblogging your song on Friday with your permission.
You have my permission. Thanks, Leslie!
Then that's what I'll do, Andy.
I've been following Eden in Babylon for a while now and I would like to introduce you to this talented man, Andy Pope. This is his song I Am the Blues. 2:05 min.


Two women in search of a home.
North lives on a circus boat with her beloved bear, keeping a secret that could capsize her life.
Callanish lives alone in her house in the middle of the ocean, tending the graves of those who die at sea. As penance for a terrible mistake, she has become a gracekeeper.
A chance meeting between the two draws them magnetically to one another – and to the promise of a new life.
But the waters are treacherous, and the tide is against them.
In keeping with my current theme of prettily-written post-apocalyptic fiction, with more of a character drive than a plot drive, I present to you The Gracekeepers by Kirsty Logan.
The novel follows Callanish and North, a gracekeeper and circus performer respectively, as they try to find their place in a world which seems to be against them.
Speaking of protagonists, the novel has two primarily, Callanish and North (whose name I love), but it doesn't just tell the story through their eyes. Interspersed between their chapters, we hear from other characters, each a brush stroke adding dimension to the rest of the story. It's a short book but it covers a fair amount of characters. If I were to name my favourites, I would probably name most of the cast, so I won't. While not all of the characters are likeable, they are each compelling in their own way.
I really like the idea of the gracekeepers, and graces, and how Damplings (those who live out at sea rather than on land) mourn their dead. The world-building in this novel isn't the most in-depth but what's there is both pretty and intriguing.
The one thing, I think, that lets this book down is the ending – something happens which is quite heartbreaking but it isn't really dealt with in the way that you would expect having read the rest of the novel. It feels as if a few extra paragraphs might have done it a bit more justice. Despite this it is a lovely novel and I did end up thinking about it for a while after finishing – I would love to know what happened to some of the other characters.
It also has a gorgeous cover. Just look at it. Beautiful.
A pretty little read, both sad and hopeful – definitely worth it if you're into floating circuses.

Struggling Sony to Shed TV, PC Units and Slash 5,000 Jobs
By Matt EganFOXBusiness
Faced with mounting losses, Japanese electronics giant Sony (NYSE:SNE) disclosed plans on Thursday to slash 5,000 jobs and separate its PC and TV divisions.
Sony hopes the plans will help focus the company on its core business of imaging, games and mobile.
As a result of the major changes, Sony said it expects to allocate an additional 20 billion yen in restructuring expenses this year and 70 billion next year. Sony, which has been under heavy pressure from activist investor Daniel Loeb, sees the moves resulting in annual fixed cost reductions of over 100 billion yen starting in fiscal 2015.
Sony said it reached a tentative deal to sell its JIP Sony's PC business, currently operating under the VAIO brand, to Japan Industrial Partners. The company said it determined selling the division "is the optimal solution" given "drastic changes in the global PC industry" and Sony's overall strategy.
A definitive agreement on a sale is expected by the end of March. The companies didn't disclose a purchase price on the discussed transaction.
If the deal is consummated, Sony said it plans to stop planning, designing and developing PC products, though customers will still have access to customer service. Sony said about 250 to 300 employees involved in PCs are expected to be hired by the new company and others could be transferred elsewhere within Sony.
At the same time, Sony announced it plans to split out its money-losing TV business and operate it as a wholly-owned subsidiary by July. The business lost 147.5 billion yen in the fiscal year ended March 2012 and 69.6 billion the following year. Sony sees a loss of about 25 billion yen in the current fiscal year.
Sony also said it would like to shift its product mix and focus in the TV business by focusing more on high-end models. The unit is also being targeted for accelerated cost cutting and operational improvement measures.
As part of its ongoing restructuring efforts, Sony said it plans to further optimize manufacturing and other operations, including by cutting costs at its headquarters by about 30%.
Due to the PC, TV and restructuring moves, Sony said it expects to cut about 5,000 jobs by the end of fiscal 2014. This includes 1,500 jobs in Japan and 3,500 overseas.
Shares of Tokyo-based Sony rallied 3.46% to $16.45 Thursday morning.

Alex Jones' reckoning is upon us
August 2, 2018 - 3:05 am
Former Managing Editor, TNW
Bryan is a freelance journalist. Bryan is a freelance journalist.
Alex Jones' attorney today argued that "no reasonable reader or listener" would expect that Jones spoke factually on his show, Infowars.
Attorney Mark Enoch today spoke on Jones' behalf in a Travis County, Texas courtroom. In a particularly contentious moment, Enoch attempted to explain away a Jones claim that an interview between CNN host Anderson Cooper and one of the plaintiffs in today's lawsuit was faked in front of a green screen. Jones' proof was that Cooper's nose appeared to disappear each time he turned his head, evidence of a botched attempt at a composite shot. "When [Cooper] turns, his nose disappears repeatedly because the green screen isn't set right," Jones claimed on the show. (According to CNN, and a video forensics expert hired for the court case, the effect was actually a common occurrence, a compression artifact that often happens in video encoding.)
Jones has long been a vocal supporter of the conspiracy theory that the Sandy Hook shooting was faked, an elaborate ruse by anti-gun politicians. He's repeatedly, and staunchly, parroted the phrase "false flag" when speaking out on the issue.
He's also accused parents of being actors, claiming no children died in the shooting. This is false. Multiple on-scene reports — including those by medical personnel, law enforcement, faculty, parents, and other students — confirm that 20-year-old Adam Lanza fatally shot 20 children between six and seven years old, as well as six adult staff members.
These claims are the reason Jones finds himself in court today, his first of multiple pending defamation suits pertaining to comments he's made about Sandy Hook.
Jones, though, finds himself in a bit of a predicament.
While Infowars has billed itself as the "lone crusader of truth," as Texas Monthly put it, Jones' attorneys are attempting to build a defense around the idea that their client doesn't really means the words he says — a similar defense to the ones used in his custody case, where his legal team called Jones a "performance artist," claiming he was playing a character on Infowars.
It's a fine line. Jones' legal team now finds itself in the precarious position of attempting to convince both the courts and his audience. To his audience, he must maintain that he's the lone source of truth in a world overrun with dishonest media. Simultaneously, he must convince the courts that his truly odd brand of entertainment is fictional, and that no "reasonable" person would mistake it as factual.
One false step and Jones stands to lose millions, either in his viewers who abandon the show after finding out he's misleading them for profit, or to the families of the victims he's defamed if courts rule in their favor.
In the first of these suits, Jones will try to convince the courts that he's playing a character, and one that only a fool would take seriously — although one viewer, Lucky Richards, clearly didn't get the message.
Richards was sentenced to five months in prison for stalking, harassing and threatening the lives of Leonard Pozener and Veronique De La Rosa, parents of Noah, a six-year-old boy killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in 2012. Judges, when hearing the Richards case, found the message of Jones so influential in Richards' decision to carry out the crime that they barred her from tuning into the program once she was released.
For those following the case(s), things are about to get really interesting.

or, add your own... Traffic was really heavy getting there from the northwest on the 101 freeway. Had to compete with others going to The Pantages and the Hollywood Bowl. Traffic was heavy both before and after the show.
The weather was clear and cool.. I wore a cocktail attire (nice top and gaucho black pants with heels). People were dressed from A to Z (formal to very casual). Don't go too formal. Casual cocktail attire would be best..
Went to Osteria Momma on Melrose near Larchmont for dinner prior to the show. Excellent food.

Eastern Conference 2018-2019 - Page 6 - Niagara IceDogs Fan Forum !
I guess it go big or stay home.
Do they have the assets to go big? To copy Hamilton they will need at least 2 (probably 3) big names.
What will they have to give up to secure that?
Need to replace the goals from Miletic and also replace Corneil and Langdon up front and Lochead on D.
Hamilton went all in and got some very solid picks to do what they did.
What does our line-up need to look like to do what Billy wants?
Replacing last year's Corneil would not be all that difficult - most nights he was a character player rather than a point-getter. As for Langdon, addition through subtraction - everyone else will step up a little and we will barely remember his name. Lochead will be missed.

Q: Problem with denominator in transformation I can't understand where the 2 comes from in the following transformation.
$$\frac{\partial}{\partial k}f(k)=\frac{\partial}{\partial k}k^{0.5}=\frac{1}{2k^{0.5}}$$
Any help would be appreciated.

A: Having looked at your previous question, I see the issue here.  The key point is that we are computing a partial derivative here.  $\partial$ is not a number that gets canceled out.
The derivative of $f(k) = k^{\frac12}$ is
\begin{equation*}
f'(k) = \frac12 k^{-\frac12}.
\end{equation*}.

A: First note that
$$\frac{\partial}{\partial k}k^n=nk^{n-1}$$
So here's how the $2$ appears
$$
\frac{\partial}{\partial k}k^{0.5}= \frac{\partial}{\partial k}k^{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{2}k^{\frac{1}{2}-1}
$$
$$
= \frac{1}{2}k^{-\frac{1}{2}}= \frac{1}{2k^{\frac{1}{2}}}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{k}}
$$

Why Bush threatens secularism
Special Report: Second of three parts.
The weekend before President Bush's second inauguration, 60 humanists, atheists and ethical culturalists gathered at a hotel just off Dupont Circle for an "emergency meeting" organized by the American Humanist Association.
"The situation is now as bad as we'll ever see it," Roy Speckhardt, the group's deputy director, says afterward.
He predicts that Mr. Bush's evangelical Christian views would be folded into government policy on judicial appointees, abortion, social services and other issues.
"A slim [election] victory is being interpreted as a mandate on moral issues, so we are concerned," Mr. Speckhardt says.
One of the 20 organizations represented at the pre-inaugural strategy session was a group from Madison, Wis., called the Freedom from Religion Foundation. Group founder Anne Nicol Gaylor, 78, unable to attend because of failing eyesight, sent son-in-law Dan Barker in her place.
The foundation is the mom-and-pop operation among the four main organizations — the others being the American Civil Liberties Union, Americans United for Separation of Church and State, and People for the American Way — that are leading the legal battles to push God from the public square and create a nation in man's image.
In 28 years, Mrs. Gaylor's foundation has filed about 25 lawsuits in addition to complaints that never made it to court. An early victory halted the 122-year history of prayers at University of Wisconsin graduation ceremonies in 1976 because of a complaint lodged by Mrs. Gaylor's daughter, Annie Laurie Gaylor, then a student. She is now the co-director of the foundation with her husband, Mr. Barker. In 1985, their group managed to stop the university football team's pre-game prayers.
"Sometimes all you have to do is complain," Mr. Barker says. "It's better that way, and cheaper. She asked the school why there's prayer, and they said, 'Gee, why is there?' "
Christianity and other religions are essentially harmful, in the view of the foundation, which claims 5,000 members, most of them atheists who make small donations.
"There is complete scorn on the part of the current administration as to the separation of church and state," the elder Mrs. Gaylor says in an interview. "There has never been any less respect in Washington for church-state separation, even though church-state separation is one of the things that made our country possible in the first place."
Many Christians and others of faith, however, see a growing threat that Mrs. Gaylor and her allies are intent on loosing the nation from its Judeo-Christian moorings.
Building the wall
On New Year's Day 1802, President Jefferson wrote a letter to a Connecticut association of Baptists that would change American judicial history and define the boundaries of religious freedom.
"I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should 'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,'" Jefferson wrote, quoting the First Amendment.
"Thus," he continued, "building a wall of separation between church and state."
Although not part of the Constitution, those concluding 10 words are considered by many Americans to be authoritative on the subject. Jefferson's letter celebrated religious liberty, yet the courts have cited his "wall" to bar faith and its forms from government, including schools, public parks and buildings.
The nation's third president sought to reassure the Danbury Baptist Association of Connecticut, representatives of a minority denomination that refused to conform to the established Congregationalist and Episcopal churches. He actually intended his letter to convince the Baptists that a state-established church would not trample their beliefs.
Jefferson's phrase did not enter the lexicon of constitutional law until 1879, when Supreme Court Chief Justice Morrison R. Waite quoted it in Reynolds v. United States, in which Mormon polygamist George Reynolds argued that the First Amendment allowed him to commit bigamy. The Supreme Court used the wall metaphor to explain that the Constitution was not meant to support specific Mormon practices.
In 1947, Justice Hugo L. Black resurrected "the wall of separation between church and state" in writing for the majority in Everson v. Board of Education, a New Jersey case asking whether the state should subsidize bus service for Catholic children in parochial schools.
"That wall must be kept high and impregnable," Justice Black wrote. "We could not approve the slightest breach."
The high court nevertheless upheld the state subsidy. This infuriated many Baptists, who traditionally have been among the strongest supporters of separation of church and state. They regarded the decision as favoring Catholics.
In 1947, Joseph Dawson, executive secretary of the Baptist Joint Committee on Public Affairs, founded Protestants and Other Americans United for the Separation of Church and State.
More than 50 years later, with the named shortened to Americans United for Separation of Church and State, the organization campaigns from its Capitol Hill offices against what it views as entanglements of religion and government.
Beliefs versus policy
Americans United prevented the Rev. Pat Robertson's Virginia Beach-based Christian graduate school, Regent University, from receiving $30 million from the sale of state construction bonds.
One of the group's several complaints last year to the Internal Revenue Service cited a pastoral letter from the Catholic bishop of Colorado Springs, in which he urged Catholics to vote for pro-life candidates. Other complaints targeted rallies in Pennsylvania and Ohio churches for Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.
Americans United vigorously protested when Congress and Mr. Bush intervened in hopes of preventing the starvation death of Terri Schiavo, the brain-damaged Florida woman whose plight focused the nation's attention on end-of-life issues before her death March 31.
Even so, the group's executive director, the Rev. Barry W. Lynn, a minister with the United Church of Christ, among the most liberal Protestant denominations, maintains genial relations with conservatives. For four years, Mr. Lynn was co-host, with conservative commentator Oliver North, of a show on the Christian radio network Salem Communications. He is on the board of the American Civil Liberties Union and a regular analyst on Fox News.
"I do have very, very traditional religious beliefs," Mr. Lynn says. "Many people are surprised by that. That is something that's very much a part of who I am, but that shouldn't be a part of what government is."
Mr. Lynn is not easily painted as an "anti-Christian soldier." Government bans on abortion first galvanized him. As a freshman at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pa., in the late 1960s, he discovered that his roommate had taken a girlfriend out of the country to terminate her pregnancy.
"All of a sudden, I realized that religious groups had now dictated what rights a woman has to make an intimate moral decision on her own," Mr. Lynn says. "And that was what triggered me, worrying about what damage it does for our country's fabric to have religious decisions guide a country's policy."
Mr. Lynn took issue with references to God and faith in Mr. Bush's inaugural ceremony and address in January and with the fact that only Christian clergymen participated.
"An event that is billed as a celebration for the entire nation should include everyone, even those who profess no faith," he says. "This inaugural sent a message that in order to be truly American, you must also be religious."
Mr. Lynn took umbrage at remarks that the president had made a week earlier in an Oval Office interview with editors and reporters of The Washington Times.
"I don't see how you can be president without a relationship with the Lord," Mr. Bush said, discussing the role of his personal faith in his public office.
"It offended many people because it seemed to suggest that as a matter of principle … he thought he really couldn't be president, he couldn't imagine a person who was Muslim or Jewish who didn't have the Christian Lord as his leader," Mr. Lynn said Jan. 17 on "MSNBC Reports."
Another guest on the show, Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, teased Mr. Lynn.
Mr. Bush's comment "didn't offend three-quarters to 80 to 90 percent of Americans," Mr. Land said. "Barry Lynn is in an extreme secularist minority and he's running around with his hair on fire, and nobody's noticing."
Television and film producer Norman Lear, together with Barbara Jordan, the former Democratic congresswoman from Texas, founded People for the American Way in 1981. Their purpose, according to their mission statement, was "to counter the growing clout and divisive message of right-wing televangelists, including Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and Jimmy Swaggart."
Mr. Lear hired lawyer and lobbyist Anthony Podesta — whose brother, John, would become President Clinton's chief of staff — as the founding president. The group, based in Southern California, made TV specials to spread its message as well as to fight efforts to return prayer to public schools and remove the theory of evolution from biology textbooks.
Hollywood celebrities were enlisted as board members, among them actor Alec Baldwin and songwriter Marilyn Bergman. The board also drew from the religious left, including the Rev. Robert Drinan, a Georgetown University professor and former Massachusetts congressman. President Ralph G. Neas, who declined to comment for this article, has identified himself as a Catholic.
"We have a different vision of religious freedom; we just don't want the government pushing it," says Elliot Mincberg, the group's vice president and legal director. "We think when it comes to religious free exercise, the Constitution says the government should get out of the way."
David Horowitz, who edits the idiosyncratic conservative Web site frontpagemag.com and is a former leftist, insists that People for the American Way "was organized as an anti-Christian group."
"On their Web site, they smear the [Christian] religious right," Mr. Horowitz says. "Why not the Jewish right? Why not the Muslim right?"
"Right Wing Watch" on www.pfaw.org does take note of some secular groups, but conservative Christians are the prime targets.
Mr. Mincberg lists three conservative Jewish organizations as troublesome: Toward Tradition, Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations and Agudath Israel of America.
"We've done plenty of battle with them as well," he says, "but it's the Christian right that's been out there much more aggressively."
Focus on the Family founder James Dobson is viewed as a major menace.
"If you had to pick one person who has the most power and influence nationally, you might pick him," Mr. Mincberg says.
People for the American Way criticized Mr. Robertson's 1988 presidential run; opposed the Supreme Court nominations of Robert J. Bork in 1987 and Clarence Thomas in 1991; and sponsored a 1998 advertising campaign against President Clinton's impeachment. More recently, it started a $5 million advertising campaign to pressure Senate Republicans to back down on reforms of filibuster rules that would hasten confirmation of Mr. Bush's judicial nominees.
According to the Center for Responsive Politics, a nonprofit research group, the Lear organization's political action committee gave $177,802 in the 2004 election cycle, 98 percent of it to Democratic candidates, party committees and leadership political action committees.
The group's political action committee, Voters Alliance, donated a total of $42,500 to 18 Democratic House candidates and $54,000 to 15 Democratic Senate candidates. The largest contribution: $10,000 to the losing campaign of Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle.
'Out of a hat'
The Freedom from Religion Foundation issued a press release Sept. 13, 2001, calling the September 11 attacks by Islamist terrorists "the ultimate faith-based initiative."
The release went on: "Religion is not the answer, it is probably the problem."
And: "Prayer had its chance on September 11 and it failed."
September 11 "should have clinched the idea this is a naturalistic universe," group leader Mr. Barker says. "To stand by and do nothing makes God an accomplice. If He exists, why are we worshipping this monster?"
The fight against God and for abortion rights appear intertwined for Mr. Barker's mother-in-law, Mrs. Gaylor. She was born in 1926 in Tomah, Wis. A biography posted at the group's Web site, www.ffrf.org, says her mother died when she was 2 and her father, a farmer, found religion "embarrassing." She graduated as an English major from University of Wisconsin in 1949 and was married the same year.
After raising four children, Mrs. Gaylor, in 1972, founded the Women's Medical Fund, which has helped 14,000 poor women obtain abortions. In 1975, she published a book "Abortion Is a Blessing."
A friend, Anne Treseder, identifies the motivation behind Mrs. Gaylor's anti-religion activism in a letter dated that year: "She told me that after much soul-searching she had concluded that a woman's right to reproductive freedom, and to basic civil rights, would never be realized as long as religious dogma played such a huge role in government policy."
Mrs. Gaylor decided she needed the backing of an organization, so she began her foundation with three members in 1976.
"It was almost a joke," says Mr. Barker, 55. "Anne just wanted to complain to the media about prayers in public meetings. People asked her what her group was. So she pulled the name out of a hat."
Mrs. Gaylor's husband and children helped her build the organization with offbeat publicity stunts. In 1983, the group posted pink-and-black signs on buses in Madison, Wis., calling the Bible "a grim fairy tale."
'Fighting back'
Besides eliminating public prayer at the state university, her successes include ending Good Friday's status as an official state holiday in 1996; banning taxpayer subsidies (in the form of free Internet connections) to private schools in Wisconsin in 2001; and removing a Ten Commandments inscription from public land in Milwaukee in 2002.
Mr. Barker draws a distinction between the "public square," which he defines as anything owned by the government, and the "public sphere," where points of view are expressed.
"We think the government should be neutral — not advancing nor hindering religion — in the public square," he says. "In the public sphere, we are free to express our points of view."
Mr. Barker says he decided he was an atheist in 1983, about 20 years after he says he became an evangelist at 15. He began to question his faith, he says, after serving as a Quaker, independent charismatic and Assemblies of God pastor and after performing missionary work in Mexico.
Mr. Barker moved to Wisconsin to work for Mrs. Gaylor's foundation, marrying Annie Laurie Gaylor in 1987 and joining the family cause. A piano player who has accompanied Pat Boone and other Christian artists, he now recasts old hymns in humanist terms with titles such as "You Can't Win with Original Sin" and "God-Less America."
Julaine Appling, executive director of the Family Research Institute in Madison, Wis., frequently contends with the Barker organization. Most of its energy is spent challenging Christians, Ms. Appling says.
"When they go after religion, they go after Christianity aggressively," she says. "I don't see them going after other religions."

'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' Final Trailer Released: Bruce Wayne Doesn't Trust Clark Kent
By Rachel McRady
Look, up in the sky! It's not a bird or a plane, but it could be two sparring superheroes, fighting their way to blockbuster fame. Just a little more than a month out from the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the final trailer has dropped, with lots of juicy new scenes and a cameo from Wonder Woman.
PHOTOS: Stars As Superheroes
"If we believe that there is even a 1 percent chance that he is our enemy, we have to take it as an absolute certainty," Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) says of Superman (Henry Cavill) in the trailer, which the studio shared on Thursday, February 11.
PHOTOS: Celebrities And Their Stunt Doubles
The diabolical Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) chimes in, "The greatest gladiator match in the history of the world — God versus man; day versus night."
PHOTOS: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner: The Way They Were
And if that's not enough, Bruce Wayne encounters Diana Prince, a.k.a. Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), at a black-tie event.
"I don't think you've ever known a woman like me," Diana says coyly. Cut to her in full Wonder Woman garb, holding up her shield and charging into a fiery explosion.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice hits theaters on March 25.

Dublin.ie – https://dublin.ie/live/stories/making-dublin-city-climate-resilient/
LiveLive StoriesMaking Dublin City Climate Resilient
When we look back at Dublin's storied history, it's clear that we are merely part of a long line of caretakers of the city. Here to ensure future generations get to enjoy all that Dublin has to offer, from the city's rich natural habitats in the Dublin Bay Biosphere to the Phoenix Park and along the rivers and canals. However, we know that what we once thought was an infinite resource is under threat, and we can no longer sit idle. 2030 has been set as a vital deadline for reaching the goals set out by the Paris Agreement, aiming to turn the tide and take climate action.
In 2019, Dublin City Council (DCC) published its Climate Change Action Plan 2019-2024 (CCAP). The plan sets out how the Council is taking action to respond to the climate crisis. It ensures that operations and public service delivery in the city are not contributing to climate change, building climate resilience instead.
The plan has four key targets:
33% energy efficiency in buildings, fleet and public lighting by 2020 (met and exceeded)
a 40% carbon reduction target, (increasing to 50% when the Climate Bill is released),
to make Dublin a climate-resilient city, and
actively engage and inform Dublin's citizens on climate change.
The plan's actions that aim to achieve these targets fall into five key areas that interconnect and align with DCC's legislated responsibilities: energy and buildings, transport, flood resilience, nature-based solutions, and resource management.
Flood alleviation works, in conjunction with upgrades to the public realm at George's Quay
DCC reports quarterly on the progress of actions and yearly progress to targets, meaning this plan is not allowed to collect dust on a shelf. It is a living plan that adapts and responds nimbly to policy changes at international, EU and national levels, the latest science and, most recently, pandemics.
The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated several actions in the CCAP, particularly the delivery of infrastructure to encourage active travel through walking and cycling by our Sustainable Transport Unit. The pandemic has also drawn attention to our parks and the measures to support biodiversity around the city, like rewilding. Simultaneously, the pandemic has highlighted challenges we continue to struggle with – including waste.
The actions that address waste in the CCAP fall into the vital area of Resource Management. Our use of resources is at the centre of climate action. By wasting water, food and energy, we are willingly emitting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Yet, the most straightforward steps are the hardest, and we make excuses – "it's just one light, it's just one coffee cup, it's just two seconds." Old habits die hard.
It takes time to unlearn these habits built around convenience and find ways to make new sustainable practices easy.
Monitoring energy use in all DCC's buildings is helping us immensely. To date we have:
achieved 36.5% energy efficiency through retrofits of libraries, area offices, fire halls, and galleries,
retrofitted seven leisure centres using energy performance contracting (EPC) to guarantee energy savings are achieved,
received the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) Energy Award for 'Leadership in the Public Sector' in 2020.
We are working to make it easier to reduce the amount of waste we produce even if rubbish is recyclable. MODOS, a circular economy programme launched in 2019, is a key programme that works with small and medium sized enterprises to embed circular economy practices into their operations.
Post-COVID, we will continue build on the steps we have taken and challenge ourselves further. We also hope to continue supporting staff in choosing low carbon sustainable travel options through DCC's mobility hub, which provides e-bikes and e-cars for staff to use.
Mostly, DCC is looking forward to working with you, the public. What can you do? Ask us questions! We have an interdisciplinary team working hard to make Dublin climate resilient. Please tell us what you are doing via sabrina.dekker [at] dublincity.ie Climate action is a collaborative effort. The CCAP is only the beginning. We have started a two-year process for the City Development Plan, which sets out the city's vision. From a climate change perspective, this is the most critical land-use plan before 2030. How we use land in the city, how we build back better and make Dublin a healthy place will require us to act.
We are all part of Dublin's story and making sure that future generations have a city and planet that enables them to live full, healthy lives.

Bull Island & the Dublin Bay Biosphere
Most people who visit Bull Island from week to week probably don't realise that it's part of one of the biggest biospheres in Europe. So, what's a biosphere? Quite simply, a biosphere is an environment where people, nature and culture connect and co-exist. Imagine the biosphere as the perfect cup of tea, with people as the water, nature as the tea-leaves, and culture as the milk. The tea-leaves are rich and unique, but need the water to be hot so they can release the flavour, while the milk is added to make it more drinkable. In the same way, nature and culture within the biosphere can add value to people, but only where it is protected and sustainably managed
Profit With Purpose
The COVID-19 crisis has resulted in many businesses facing an uncertain future, rethinking how they will make money. Many entrepreneurs have found a silver lining from their new circumstances in being given an unexpected opportunity to work on sustainable and ethical ideas as they reinvent their business. Making your start-up or existing business sustainable or ethical is also a smart, future-proof option. Customers are now much more informed and aware of the environmental impact of their purchases. A more sustainable product or service will create a positive brand image and reputation that will impact the bottom line of many businesses.
Space Engagers
If you live in Dublin, it's almost impossible not to be aware of the shortage of affordable housing. If you haven't joined the back of a long queue to view a property in recent years, chances are you know a lot of people that have. And for many the consequences can be far worse; about 140 people sleep rough every night, there are some 3,000 homeless who are dependent on hotels and B&Bs, and a further 100,000 are on social housing waiting lists. It's something that's garnered a lot of media & governmental attention, and often the solutions proffered are quite grandiose; build up and build quickly. As a nation, we tend to have a penchant for the new when it comes to housing. While that may be a part of the solution, it's certainly not the only approach. In every corner of this city, there are spaces going to waste.

In our projects we use advanced drawing tools to best illustrate our design ideas.
Our drawings speak more about the system itself than any descriptive document.
Whenever possible, in our 2D drawings we show system components as 3D models for easier and better understanding of the whole system, not just by technical people, but also by non-technical and decision making managers.
In our system drawings we put all the key details, including bandwidth requirements, cable type, physical appearance of the components, their physical size relationship and location. We create all such components ourselves, always updating with the particular brand or model to reflect the real situation.
An installer or integrator does not require any other document to understand what was intended with the design.
We use 3D rendering software to show a scaled model of the precise coverage of cameras in a proposed camera position, including the calculated Pixel Density at all critical distances.
This gives the customer a very accurate representation of the proposed system coverage and its clarity. In these calculations we use our ViDiLabs calc app.
We do not stop at the system design itself, but also offer customised control room design to suit a customer's particular room layout.
For such a design, we take care of the OH&S aspects for the health and safety of the operators. We use the principle of Optimum Viewing distances, as explained in our books.
We have been working as a CCTV consulting company since 1992. In addition to conducting seminars worldwide, we conduct project design and consultancy worldwide also.
Our experience, combined with our technical knowledge, allows us to offer a premium service for every customer type.
Our understanding of customer's requirements, tender documentation of the highest order, detailed yet easy to understand system drawings, and assistance in choosing the best installers/integrators are our main strengths.
- Apollonia Casino Macedonia, (2018) full upgrade from SD to full HD.
This was Vlado Damjanovski's very first CCTV camera design, from his very first job after University graduation in 1982.
He not only did the electronic design, prototyping and manufacturing, but also all of the electronic and mechanical assembly drawings as well. Of course, tube cameras were used at the time.
All drawings were done by hand!
No computers, no CAD programs, as they didn't exist at the time.

How To Choose A University (UK)
This article was co-authored by Cassandra Lenfert Cassandra Lenfert is a CPA and CFP® in Colorado. There have been moves to give universities more autonomy , to increase funding , to engage with the rankings But there is little sign that India is ready to acknowledge the underlying problems of the absence of a serious research culture or a secondary school system that seems unable to prepare students for tertiary education.
How to Take an SAT Observe Test
Ready to imitate the official expertise? Implausible! Here's what to do:
Set aside approximately four hours of uninterrupted time to take the apply take a look at.
Try to take your entire observe test in a single sitting.
Give yourself a short, 10-minute break after the Studying check.
Give yourself a short, 5-minute break after the Math (No Calculator) test.
Take the test in a quiet place where you won't be distracted.
Mimic take a look at day circumstances by turning off your telephone and leaving it in another room.
Use a countdown timer and keep in mind to reset it for each check.
Eat a wholesome, energizing snack earlier than taking the follow test.
After the take a look at, verify your answers and make word of any questions you missed.
Watch the explanation video for every query you get flawed, so that you don't repeat the identical mistakes on check day!
Sign up for Magoosh SAT Prep and gain access to more practice questions.
A ultimate phrase on examining these results"it's a good idea to spend no less than as a lot time examining your outcomes as you did taking the test. Why? Properly, did you get a query proper since you knew the reply, or because you were guessing? Did you get a question unsuitable because you stuffed within the flawed bubble? (Practice checks help loads with this latter problem, by the way in which!) After you have examined your results, do some observe in your weak areas and take another test. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Okazuje się, że takie niepozorne i wyglądające abstrakcyjnie równanie (picrel) może posłużyć do szukania rozwiązywalnych ściśle modeli dwuwymiarowych w fizyce statystycznej, np. niektórych sieci krystalicznych, i wiąże je z topologią, a czasami pozwala sprowadzić rachunki do użycia prostych tożsamości trygonometrycznych.
Second, the federal courts should adopt a more pragmatic mode of equal protection analysis in considering claims against deregulated schools, rather than presuming college board clep that status-identifiable charter schools should be subjected to heightened scrutiny, or that heightened scrutiny requires finding such schools unconstitutional.
What we all know: The SAT favors affluent college students greater than grade level averages do. However there's additionally little evidence that more faculties going "check non-compulsory" would stage the playing area.
Tough also takes purpose at an evaluation of highschool grade inflation revealed in a 2018 e-book edited by School Board-affiliated researchers. It reveals that grades at high schools serving affluent and white college students are rising faster than GPAs at colleges serving largely students from low-revenue families. Separate analysis in North Carolina has found a similar phenomenon.
These results have been broadly publicized, and the School Board used them to counsel the downside of shifting away from admissions checks like the SAT.
"Submitting SAT scores as half of a school utility can open doorways to opportunity not just for a privileged few, but for all college students," reads a School Board-sponsored piece targeted on the examine's findings.
But Powerful points out that different elements of the research, in addition to other research, don't help the concept that GPA offers extra advantaged students a leg up.
At the coed degree, GPA will increase between 2001 and 2016 have been comparable for black college students (+.11) and white students (+.12). College students with highly educated mother and father noticed only barely bigger will increase (+.15) than college students whose dad and mom hadn't accomplished high school (+.11). (One exception was Hispanic college students, who have seen minimal GPA will increase over that time.)
SAT scores are correlated with race and household earnings, far more so than high school GPA " a reality different researchers notice in the identical ebook. "Research have discovered that students who've larger [high school] GPAs than take a look at scores tend to be female, minority, and low-revenue students," they write.
Coleman says the key fact is that the SAT may also help predict, together with GPA, which college students will do effectively in school.
"That debate is to me, tired," he said. "What's evident is that two sources of knowledge, like so many instances in life, are a couple of." (Research helps that declare, although highschool GPA alone is extra predictive than SAT scores alone.) Coleman has also stated that poor SAT scores "should not be a veto on any scholar's life."
Tough zeroes in on expensive take a look at prep as a key driver of the disparities between the SAT scores of different groups. However here he is on weaker ground: analysis has found that check prep gives students only a modest enhance, and enormous check score gaps exist on exams that college students are unlikely to explicitly put together for.
What all of this implies for the fight to make faculty admissions more equitable is unclear. Tough is extremely important of the SAT, but acknowledges that empirical research has not discovered that colleges develop into more racially or economically numerous after they drop SAT or ACT necessities.
Coleman additionally argues that, if extra faculties shifted consideration from take a look at scores to grades, prosperous students' GPAs would rise at an much more rapid clip. "Let's not be naïve," he mentioned.
In general, he says, people should not expect that the SAT to mitigate the realities of poverty. As inequality persists, checks will replicate them.
"We can empower extra people to observe, to grow, to defy those," he said. "It ought to never blind us to their results."
College board observe test
As a standardized check, the SAT has the popularity of being predictable. Nonetheless, the scoring curves on the latest SAT tests have been surprising " and that is troubling for a lot of college students. The College Board has been struggling to create tests of constant problem and has erred on the s >The form of scoring scales we're seeing on recent exams have been shocking to college students, main tens of thousands of students to lend their signatures to online petitions calling on the CollegeBoard to rescore the tests in query.
The first issue is one in all calibration of expectations . The research supplies and observe tests formally launched by the Faculty Board don't replicate the sort of scoring curves the scholars will see on their actual assessments. This misalignment of expectations is a significant drawback. If it intends to continue to manage simpler checks with robust curves, The School Board needs to update its observe supplies so college students could have an correct sense of their expected testing outcomes.
It appears the first driver behind the steep scoring curves of latest testing administrations is the failure to precisely pretest and norm questions. The School Board distanced itself from the Academic Testing Service and took its pre-testing in-house. Previously, the Faculty Board normed questions using an experimental section that was administered with every SAT, resulting in a broad nationwide sample of scholars. After parting ways with ETS, the Faculty Board began to norm its questions utilizing a sample of students who were opting out of the essay part. At that time, the essay was required by most of the most selective schools in the nation, and thus the non-essay cohort of scholars were comparatively weaker check takers than the cohort of students who took the essay. Moreover, the fact that the section did not depend " and the scholars knew it " may have influenced the performance of sure groups of scholars. Ultimately, gadgets that appeared arduous to this group did not appear as difficult to students at the upper end of the scoring spectrum. This turned a problem when the check items were given on actual SAT exams as a result of too many students received them proper. When too many students are acing the "exhausting items," the curve will probably be a lot steeper, and single errors will come at a a lot better cost in direction of the higher finish of the dimensions.
The School Board Tweaked The SAT Adversity Score. Can It Undo The Damage It Precipitated?
Since David Coleman took the helm on the Faculty Board, its flagship product-the ubiquitous SAT, one-time queen of faculty entrance exams-has been the victim of a series of unforced errors. The roll-out and stroll-again of the "adversity score" is barely the newest-and up to date experiences of that score's dying may be drastically exaggerated.
The firm ran into some glitches in its rush to get a brand new, Frequent Core-aligned take a look at to market. Coleman expressed a desire for the check to be a terrific leveler, a check that might recognize and elevate mental prowess wherever it was found. The SAT has long been criticized as being loaded with cultural bias, and the School Board's own information appears to support that assertion. The opposite knock on the take a look at was that it could possibly be overwhelmed with the assistance of take a look at prep and training (a criticism bolstered by a whole SAT test prep industry). And the College Board has been confirming that these criticisms are legitimate.
In 2014, the School Board entered right into a partnership with Khan Academy to offer free take a look at prep to anybody who wished it. Somewhat than designing a test that was immune to check prep (which can, in actual fact, be unattainable), the School Board seemed to be conceding that SAT scores measured, at least partly, how nicely a student had been coached for the check.
Then came the Environmental Context Dashboard, that includes the Adversity Score. The score was speculated to seize the social and economic background of students by way of a mix of fifteen dimensions. But though it was supposedly "steeped in research," the genesis of the rating remained a proprietary mystery, by some means combining elements from school and community. The outcome would be a rating between 1-one hundred, with a rating of greater than 50 representing drawback and a rating below 50 indicating some privilege. Critics attacked the notion of reducing a pupil's whole background to a single rating. They criticized it for being an attack on meritocracy. And most of all, they criticized it for being an admission that the SAT itself is a biased test given on a tilted enjoying field. Meredith Twombly, vice chairman of admissions and monetary assist, at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts, one of many many take a look at-non-obligatory faculties within the U.S., had a typical response:
For a long time the Faculty Board stated the SAT alone is the perfect unbiased, objective indicator of success and likened it to an equalizer. The creation of the ECD is the SAT proving the purpose they have been denying."
Hence the low position of the London School of Economics , caused primarily by its citations score, is a result not of the output of an outstanding institution but the database and the fact that the LSE does not have the counterweight of a large natural science base.
Practice makes every part simpler, and that includes the SAT test. If you're searching for a solution to increase your probability of getting a excessive score in SAT, you could do extra than just finding out the matters; it is advisable apply taking the check itself via SAT follow tests.

Q: Editing Excel Formulas in Python I have this excel file

employee Salary
Month
Sum

10000
5
50000

20000
7
14000

So now in the sum column, there is a formula =A2*B2, for all the rows in the table.
Now, how to read these formulas in python from my excel sheet and make them dynamic so if I want to change the formula to =A2+B2 for all the rows,in future I can do it easily.

A: You can try this simple example using openpyxl for multiplication and sum between two numbers in each row.
For the multiplication example:
from openpyxl import Workbook

wb = Workbook()
ws = wb.active

ws['A1'] = 10000
ws['A2'] = 20000
ws['B1'] = 5
ws['B2'] = 7

ws['C1'].value = ws['A1'].value * ws['B1'].value
ws['C2'].value = ws['A2'].value * ws['B1'].value
print(ws['C1'].value, ws['C2'].value)

For the sum example:
ws['C1'].value = ws['A1'].value + ws['B1'].value
ws['C2'].value = ws['A2'].value + ws['B2'].value
print(ws['C1'].value,ws['C2'].value)

Luke shares a parable of Jesus' that I have always looked at and wondered about. Today God showed me it a little different than I used to see it. This parable has to do with persistence.
As a child, my family will tell you that one of my most notable characteristics was stubbornness. I didn't give up and I didn't give in; not if I could help it anyway. My parents definitely didn't enjoy this aspect of my personality and it was the cause of a LOT of corrective measures from my parents.
During my teen years, this natural bent was channeled into a driving force for things I wanted to accomplish. In that phase it was labeled as persistence and it was valued. I was actually commended for my persistence and that characteristic was credited for many of my achievements. I truly believed that these two labels actually referred to the same trait and in a small way they do.
Let's look at the definitions and compare these two words.
a stubborn opponent of foreign aid.
a stubborn horse; a stubborn pain.
a most annoyingly persistent young man.
the persistent aroma of verbena; a persistent cough.
having continuity of phylogenetic characteristics.
5. Botany. remaining attached beyond the usual time, as flowers, flower parts, or leaves.
I notice a lot of similarities in these two words, but one is positive and the other negative. The most notable difference is found in the first definition of stubborn: "unreasonably obstinate." So we know that this attitude is not what Jesus was recommending to His disciples. In fact, Israel was often labeled as a "stubborn and stiff necked people." God DID NOT approve of this attitude!
Previously when I read this parable, I envisioned a child begging its parent for something. NOT and endearing endeavor! When my children tried this with me I would take a different one of Jesus' instructions to heart and use it instead: "Let your yes be yes, and your no be no." I refused to change my answer because of begging.
But today I see that Jesus isn't telling us to "beg" for what we want. Instead He is painting a picture of someone who is desperate. They are out of options and they HAVE to have help. They can't do it on their own and what is being sought after is just.
The woman in Jesus' story is being tormented by someone. She has tried everything to handle the situation on her own, but she can't make her tormenter stop. They don't respect her. She turns to her last bastion of hope, an uncaring, unrighteous judge. She harbors no illusions about this man. She knows going in that he is going to take some convincing before he will get involved. She is determined to make him see her situation. She comes back to him over and Over and OVER again. I'm certain that she kept rewording her argument each time in hopes of helping the judge to truly understand her situation. She was also probably adding more examples to her list, since her tormenter was still acting out against her. We know he was, because if he had stopped she would have no reason to continue seeking help.
Jesus said that the unrighteous judge finally gave in. What she asked for was just and should have been granted in the beginning. But he only gave in because she didn't give up. She didn't win him over with her argument, but he saw that there was no getting rid of her until he did as she asked. She finally won her justice.
Jesus told His disciples to be that steadfast in their prayers. Don't give up just because you don't see an immediate answer. But also make sure that what you are asking for lines up with His word. Not everything we ask for is appropriate.
I remember my daughter asking me for a horse all the time. One day I asked her what she would do with one if she got it. She said she would keep it in her closet. She was persistent in asking but what she was asking for was not appropriate, at least not for where we were at during that time.
Sometimes our requests are not appropriate "for the moment." That doesn't mean that they will never be granted, but that other things need to change first. God is not uncaring like the judge. He loves you and wants to give you the desires of your heart. But He knows how those answered prayers will affect your future. Not every prayer should be answered. He knows which ones should and shouldn't. He will answer all our prayers, but the answer won't always be yes.
One prayer that He always answers yes to is when we ask to know Him better. From the first time we reach out and ask Him into our life to the last prayer where we ask Him to welcome us home. Those prayers are His favorites. They are the relationship prayers. "Show me Your will." "Be real in my life." "Open my heart to hear Your word." Those are the ones He longs to hear.
Father God, thank You for opening an avenue for me to come directly to You with my prayers. Thank You that You hear me when I call out to You. Thank You for showing me more about You every day, including giving me a better picture in place of my distorted view. Thank You for showing me the real meaning of this parable. I'm sure there is much more in it than I've seen today, but I'm grateful for the change You authored.
Thank You for giving me a persistent personality. I know I used it inappropriately for MANY years, but You have tempered me and have brought out the good qualities instead. Thank You for rubbing my rough edges off. Thank You that my daughter can see the possibilities in her children's "stubborn" nature because of what You have created through mine. "And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). Thank You for working out good in me.

BREAKING: Mike Pompeo Says He Has Hillary Clinton's Deleted Emails and Will Begin Releasing Them Before Election Day (VIDEO)
by Cristina Laila, The Gateway Pundit:
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday dropped a little October surprise said his department has Hillary Clinton's 'deleted' emails and will release them before the election.
"We're getting them out," Pompeo told Fox News Dana Perino.
"We'll get all of this information out so the American people can see them," Pompeo said. "There will be more to see before the election."
"You will remember there was classified information on a private server. It should never have been there. Hillary Clinton should never have done that. It is unacceptable behavior."
Earlier this week Trump lashed out at Mike Pompeo for withholding the release of Hillary Clinton's emails.
"He's running the State Department," Trump said earlier this week on "Fox and Friends."
"Forget about the fact they were classified. Let's Go. Maybe Mike Pompeo finally finds them, okay."
President Trump on Friday said Hillary Clinton belongs in jail during his rally on Rush Limbaugh's radio show.
Recall, it was Judicial Watch in 2015 that blew the story wide open about Hillary Clinton's use of a private server while she was the head of the Department of State.
Hillary Clinton famously shrugged her shoulders when a reporter asked her about "wiping her server" — "You mean with a cloth?" she said snarkily.
Hillary Clinton has repeatedly stated her BleachBit emails were personal in nature and only pertained to her daughter Chelsea's wedding and yoga.
