Ohio's COVID-19 overnight curfew will be extended again past Saturday
Crew notebook | Expectations growing after advancing with win against New York Red Bulls
Jacob Myers
jmyers@dispatch.com
The 10:30 p.m. time slot for kickoffs doesn't grant the Crew access to the broad section of casual fans that might watch its games at 8 p.m. or earlier.
The true die-hards of Major League Soccer that have stayed up for the late kickoff, however, have watched the Crew knock off its first two opponents of the MLS is Back Tournament by a combined six goals without conceding a goal.
Despite a small sample size, the two wins had coach Caleb Porter answer a question Thursday night about his team possibly being seen as the favorites of the tournament after a 2-0 win against a New York Red Bulls team that's known for being a tough matchup.
It's easy to be a prisoner of the moment. But not to think the Crew are one of the teams to beat in this tournament would miss the point that no other team has been as convincing in its first two games as the Crew.
Now, the question becomes how the Crew will handle those expectations given the team will more than likely win the group.
"We don't think about whether or not we're favorites," Porter said. "We don't think about anything other than winning the next game and I think that's the best way to approach a tournament."
Once again, forward Gyasi Zardes and midfielder Lucas Zelarayan were the goal scorers. The duo has combined for five of the team's six tournament goals, in addition to Zelarayan's two assists in the first game against FC Cincinnati.
The Crew needs only a tie against Atlanta United or a draw between Cincinnati and the Red Bulls next week in the final group-stage game to clinch first place in the group. If the Crew loses and becomes tied in points with Red Bulls or Cincinnati, the first tiebreaker is goal differential in which the Crew has a seven-goal lead.
In a lot of ways, Red Bulls were going to be the Crew's first test of this tournament. Porter said there's a certain type of mentality and physical toughness a team has to have against New York. If those characteristics don't exist, the Red Bulls' pressing style can lead to dominant results.
Only a few times all night did the Crew look slightly uncomfortable by the Red Bulls pressing. The club held the Red Bulls to zero shots on goal and center back Jonathan Mensah dominated in the air with 13 of the team's 31 clearances.
"These games against New York Red Bulls are scrappy," said defender Hector Jimenez, who played his second straight 90-minute game on short rest. "It's a game of first and second balls and I think we were really good in those areas.
"We've shown we can play really beautiful soccer in some games and in some games we just got to battle and be warriors," he continued. "That's what the game presented today, we stepped up and got a good result."
It was an upset, come-from-behind win last year at Red Bulls that had fans starting to see Porter's vision for the future of the team. Almost a full year later, a win against the same team has the Crew as one of the teams of this tournament commanding the most buzz.
"There are a lot of teams that have had good starts that don't have good endings," Porter said. "We need to make sure we have a good start, a good middle and a good ending."
Twisting the knife
It was after the Red Bulls game last season when the Crew would blow a late lead or a draw would turn into a loss when the club desperately needed points.
Through two games this tournament, the Crew has quickly taken drama out of a close game with goals less than five minutes after halftime.
In the 47th minute, winger Derrick Etienne Jr. made a smart decision by just passing a ball to the top of the box and letting Zelarayan slot it into the low-left corner of the goal.
A one-goal lead is never safe, especially against a team that can create counter attacks out of thin air with their pressing style. At least at two goals up in the second half, chances are the Crew was going to come out with at least a point, if not all three points.
"At halftime our mindset was we're not going to ride this out 1-0," Porter said. "We need to get the second goal and stick the knife in and turn it a little bit. I thought the guys did that."
As time goes on — if there's a season after the tournament — the Crew's ability to pad its lead and not allow an opponent to tie or win a game late will be one of multiple factors that decide if this team is championship caliber or not.
"It's important that we just keep our feet on the ground and keep moving forward," Jimenez said. "We can't look too far ahead, but we're happy where we're playing and hopefully we can move forward with Atlanta, get another three points and go far in this tournament."
Pedro Santos makes immediate impact
The Crew were missing two key pieces of its starting lineup against FC Cincinnati. One of those players returned Thursday with the other on the bench.
Midfielder Pedro Santos started on the right wing and allowed Youness Mokhtar to come off the bench to replace Zelarayan before the 60th minute mark. Santos also provided the assist on Zardes' 22nd minute goal.
Santos missed the last game with an undisclosed injury. He subbed off in the 67th minute for midfielder Luis Diaz.
"Pedro, in particular, I thought he had a really nice game and pretty incredible for him to come off basically two and a half weeks not playing and put in a nearly 70-minute shift," Porter said. "It shows how fit he is and how key he is to our team."
Berhalter's first start
Without having any games before playing two games within five days, Porter elected to rotate some players out of the starting lineup in order to stay fresh for the next game. That gave way to homegrown Sebastian Berhalter making his first career MLS start in place of Artur.
Playing in close proximity to Darlington Nagbe, a master at evading pressure and maintaining possession, Berhalter was able to have some cover if he made mistakes. Aside from a few heavy touches which led to a couple fouls, Berhalter did not look out of place.
"I thought he did a great job today. I really did," Porter said. "I think it was a good first start for him, good first step. It's really important that young players make steps. Ideally you want to make steps forward. Sometimes a young player makes steps backwards. But he's making a lot of steps forward right now."
Former Crew coach and U.S. men's national team coach Gregg Berhalter was at the match watching his son make his first start and told Fox Sports on the broadcast at halftime that he now knows how his parents felt watching him play professionally.
"We're proud of him," Gregg Berhalter said. "It shows that he's worked hard for many years and all that hard work and dedication has paid off."
Picking up injuries
The Crew had to withstand basically 10 minutes of extra time in the second half with goalkeeper Eloy Room suffering what appeared to be a hamstring injury, followed by Mensah going down with a thigh injury. The injuries appeared to be due to a mixture of fatigue and the heat in Orlando, which has been above 90 degrees all week.
Both of them finished the game because the Crew had no more substitutions to make. Room had defenders take goal kicks for him.
Nagbe also appeared to suffer some injury after he pulled up from a run and grabbed his leg. He subbed out for rookie Aidan Morris in the 67th minute.
"In this third game (against Atlanta) we're going to have to evaluate our recovery, who's ready to go," Porter said. "But we do have some fresh legs going into the third game."

Samsung Galaxy S Mini In The Works?
Samsung could soon be launching a miniature version of its successful Galaxy S smartphones. Details about this leaked Android handset are now doing the rounds across the blogosphere that reveal the official name for the device as S5570.
The new Samsung Galaxy S Mini is expected to measure around 110.42 × 60.76 × 12.68 mm and could run on Android 2.2 operating system. Features on the device could include a 240 x 320 pixel screen resolution, a 5 megapixel camera with 720p HD video, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, a micro SD card slot and the TouchWiz user interface. We hear that the handset would be announced next month at the 2011 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
The launch of a mini Galaxy S is interesting and it is possible that Samsung is looking at targeting the phones at the emerging economies where the Galaxy S could be pricier. In any case, this is one rumor worth following.

Number Of Samsung Galaxy S Devices Sold Cross 10 Million Mark
Just seven months after launching the Galaxy S, Samsung has announced that they have successfully sold over 10 million of these devices worldwide. This is a pretty lofty achievement considering that there have been several new Android handsets launched during this period that run on Android 2.2 and higher. Samsung Galaxy S, as you know, still runs on the older Android 2.1 platform.
Writing about this on Samsung Tomorrow, JK Shin, President and Head of Mobile communications business at Samsung Electronics has said,
"The Galaxy S is the result of our 22 year heritage in the mobile industry. It is the realization of our concept of 'the Smart Life' – we wanted to makes users' lives more convenient, more exciting, and more integrated. Today's milestone shows that we have succeeded: 10 million Galaxy S users around the world are living the Smart Life"
Of the 10 million handsets sold, 4 million were sold in North America, 2.5 million in Europe and 2 million in the Korean market. Another 1.5 million was sold in rest of Asia and Australia.

New Samsung Galaxy Phones Features To Include Dual Core Processor & NFC Chips?
Most of the tech world may be gearing up for the Consumer Electronics Show that is set to get underway in less than a week's time. However Samsung, it is learned, is already getting ready to showcase some upcoming products at the Mobile World Congress that will be held during the month of February in Barcelona.
According to a report on Korean newspaper Chosunilbo, Samsung is prepping to unveil the next gen models of its Galaxy range smart devices. The Galaxy S successor is reported to be equipped with dual core processors, updated gyroscope and support NFC connectivity.
It is worth noting that these are some features that are offered on Google's latest Gingerbread platform and consequently it is likely that the new Galaxy range of smartphones could run on Android 2.3. Not too unlikely considering that the launch is at least a couple of months away and because the first Gingerbread handset is already available in the market.

9.3 Million Samsung Galaxy S Sold Worldwide
Samsung has surely hit jackpot with the Galaxy S. According to a Korean publication, the company has sold close to 9.3 million Galaxy S phones worldwide since it was launched earlier this year. Samsung is apparently targeting a sale number of 10 million units by the end of this year which is likely given that the holiday shopping season is sure to have given the sale of these Android handsets a little spike.
So where has Samsung sold a majority of its phones? The South Korean daily claims that 2 million Galaxy S phones were sold in South Korea alone. Another 5 million units are reported to have been sold in the United States leaving just 2.5 million odd phones to the rest of the world.
The report has got us curious about the official numbers. We cannot wait for the quarter to end so Samsung would hopefully get us these official numbers.

Gingerbread Android 2.3 For Samsung Galaxy S Ported From Nexus S
Google Nexus S, the latest Android smartphone from Google is the only one in the market to be running the latest Gingerbread OS. While other Android users continue to wait for Android 2.3 to be made available to them officially from their carriers, at least Galaxy S users have something to cheer about. Folks at XDA have managed to port the Android 2.3 Gingerbread platform from Nexus S to Galaxy S.
From what we hear, this is a near-perfect porting with few performance related issues. However do note that some features on the Galaxy S could be disabled after the update. Users have reported issues with accessing Wi-Fi, GPS and Google Voice after porting to the new Gingerbread OS.
That could be a huge deal breaker for many. But if you are one who would rather update to the latest OS than access these features from a FroYo handset, be sure to dive into this thread for instructions on the upgrade. Also, check the videos embedded below for an idea on how this works.

Android 2.2 For Samsung Galaxy S Users In UK Coming Early November
If you are one of those Samsung Galaxy S users in the United Kingdom patiently awaiting your turn to get the Android 2.2 update, the good news is that this new update is coming in early November. A recent tweet posted by Samsung UK reads,
"The Froyo upgrade will be available in the UK from early November and we expect all operator versions to be available by the end of November"
That is some clearly worded announcement. But then it is still not clear how early in November you can expect this update. Nevertheless, expect Samsung to start rolling out the update to at least a select few users within the first two days of the month.
The rollout of FroYo to Samsung Galaxy S users in UK would mean that these users will finally get the highly anticipated features like mobile hotspot and Adobe Flash on their mobile devices. Does that get you excited?

Zen Habits "We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize." - Thich Nhat Hanh By Leo Babauta I'm not a Zen monk, nor will I ever become one. However, I find great inspiration in the way they try to live their lives: the simplicity of their lives, the concentration and mindfulness of every activity, the calm and peace they find in their days. You probably don't want to become a Zen monk either, but you can live your life in a more Zen-like manner by following a few simple rules. Why live more like a Zen monk? The Theory of Property, Chapter VIII Of the chapters from Proudhon's The Theory of Property which have not yet appeared in translation, the first is the Introduction compiled by Proudhon's friends, which surveyed his previous works; the third, fourth and fifth chapters amount to a summing up of Proudhon's scattered thoughts on the varieties of property, legal opinions on the subject, and the history of property. All of these contain interesting material, including the data on which the New Theory was constructed. But arguably the most interesting of the remaining chapters are the seventh, which explains in some detail the "equilibration" of property, and the eighth, "The Author's Critique Vindicated," in which Proudhon reflected on the development of his thought and responded to criticisms. I'm happy to be able to provide a working translation of Chapter VIII.
All About Anarchism This classic statement of anarchism was written by a diverse group of anarchists in Cardiff around 1980 and it is an interesting historical record of the optimism of mainstream anarchist thought at that time. There is probably more rubbish talked about anarchism than any other political idea. Actually, it has nothing to do with a belief in chaos, death and destruction. Anarchists do not normally carry bombs, nor do they ascribe any virtue to beating up old ladies. Faith of Our ForeFathers December 2006 The Founders are once again in vogue. More than 35 books have been published about them just since January according to Gordon Wood, the foremost authority on that era. One of the sub topics of these books concerns the depth of the religious convictions of these men, particularly the Big Six: Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Madison, Hamilton, and Adams. Authors coming from a conservative religious perspective believe that the Founders were highly religious and that the religious convictions of these men have been underestimated or deliberately ignored.
Real examples of anarchism in history are problematic As near as I can tell, the united States of America is one of the best examples of an anarchist nation that has ever been, though it did not last terribly long before the public servants hired to govern subverted the peoples sovereignty and replaced the dejure united states with a corporation. From Bouviers Law Dictionary 6th edition: A chief ruler with supreme power; one possessing sovereignty. Anarchism: For & Against by Albert Meltzer Table of Contents Introduction Inalienable Tenets of Anarchism The Class Struggle Organisation and Anarchism The Role of an Anarchist in an Authoritarian Society Bringing About the New Society The Marxist Criticism of Anarchism The Social-Democratic Critique of Anarchism The Liberal-Democratic Objection to Anarchism The Fascist Objection to Anarchism The Average Person's Objection to Anarchism
Why Civics Class Should Be Sexy American government may not be a game of thrones. But it's all about power -- and when it's taught right, students will find it riveting. Joshua Roberts/Reuters In a recent episode of HBO's Game of Thrones, a treacherous courtier tells the queen regent he knows the true identity of the young king's father. "Information is power," he hisses. Immediately, she orders her guards to seize him, shutter his business, and kill him -- and then, just as quickly, she makes a show of casually changing her mind.

The True Nature and Goals of Anarchism It's one of the most prevalent and enduring myths regarding Anarchism. It's reinforced daily with news reports of countries that have "descended into anarchy" or political pundits railing against things that we can't do because it would (gasp!) lead to anarchy. The idea that Anarchy and chaos are synonymous has been firmly entrenched within the lexicon of modern imagery. Yet, it couldn't be much further from the true nature of Anarchism.

Never Talk to the Police By Dave Hitt on Mar 31, 2010 in Featured, Police State What's the best response when a cop asks you something? Silence, or a short, polite non-answer. Shut up. The Horizon of Anarchy: Anarchism and Contemporary Radical Thought Saul Newman Abstract—This paper explores the relevance of anarchism for current debates in continental radical political philosophy. It argues that anarchism – as a form of politics which proposes the abolition of state power – is the unacknowledged referent for radical politics today, and that contemporary thinkers such as Alain Badiou, Jacques Rancière and Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, amongst others, must situate their own political thought in relation to the questions posed by anarchism. In particular, radical political thought today tends to converge around three configurations – politics beyond the state, political organisation beyond the party, and political subjectivity beyond class – thus pointing to the exhaustion of Marxism-Leninism and the need for new forms of egalitarian and libertarian forms of politics. Here, I argue that anarchism provides a more consistent way of theorising radical politics today. Anarchism has always been a political heresy.

I always pictured I'd marry someone who would put a firm foot down and tell me it was there way or the high way. I pictured I'd marry someone slightly unforgiving who would tighten the reigns when necessary (really romantic isn't it). I figured the only kind of person who could "handle me" was someone who was stronger than me. That's true, but strength isn't always what we picture. God knew I didn't need another man to walk into my life and demand change in return for love he knew what I needed was the kind of guy who would love me to freedom. Freedom from pretending I had to be strong, freedom from never acting hurt, and freedom from thinking love and pain were one in the same.
This man who caught me so off guard I cried after our first date (true story). I was so scared he was going to hurt me. I was so scared I would let myself show just the tiniest bit and he'd run like all the others.
A girl asked me recently how I knew my husband could handle my "baggage", how I knew he wouldn't run and it was simple. The right guy doesn't run. Don't get me wrong there were times he was afraid but he stayed and I have never experienced Jesus more than I have in the love of my husband. Jesus was so many things but I always loved that he won sinful people over by loving and serving them.
I am so thankful God knows me better than I know myself and I am so glad he made Ben strong enough to weather the storm with me. Four years ago I walked down the aisle to the man who would walk through life with me, be the father to our kids, and show me a little more about God every day. The man who would serve our family, work hard for our family, and do it all with a compassionate calming love that can change everything.
Thank you babe for wrecking what I ever thought I knew about love, for championing me in my dreams, for loving me even when I fall utterly short, and for making me laugh every day. You are truly my better half.
anna Etheriedge - It's so wonderful how God matches us up!!!!
Beth Joubert - Tindell, love this post about your sweet Ben! Rene and I celebrated our 25th anniversary on Sept 10th!

Patti LaBelle Biography, Life, Interesting Facts
Also Known For :
Actress, Singer, Songwriter
Birth Place :
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States of America
Zodiac Sign :
Chinese Zodiac :
Birth Element :
The Godmother of Soul, Patti LaBelle was born on May 24th, in 1944. Her place of birth was in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She is famous for her singing and acting talent. She is also a notable individual for being a successful entrepreneur. Some of the songs that brought LaBelle to the spotlight of her career include "When You Talk About Love," "New Attitude" and "Lady Marmalade." Her career took off during the late 1950s when she was a member of the Ordettes. This group later changed its name to Bluebelles during the early 1960s. LaBelle's solo career has also been a success rising to stardom with successful albums such as I'm in Love Again.
Patti LaBelle was born on May 24th, 1944. She was the third born child in a family of four children. Her father, Henry was a railroad worker. Bertha Holte, her mother, was a domestic worker. When she was 12 years old, her parents went separate ways. Regardless of this, LaBelle maintained her close ties with her loving father.
The BlueBelles
Working with her team, the BlueBelles earned LaBelle nationwide recognition. Their exceptional performance at The Apollo Theater located in Harlem, New York garnered them the recognition of being "Apollo Sweethearts." The group also worked on song remakes which also brought success to their side. Some of these remake songs were "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "You'll Never Walk Alone," which got the group high acclaim.
Things did not work out fine during the 70s as the group failed to achieve the success that they had began with. This led to their abandonment by their managers. Concerned about this lull, LaBelle approached Vicki Wickham, a promoter to help them in bringing back their high acclaim image. The group had to change the name of the team to "LaBelle." Working hard during the 1970s, they got their first huge break after releasing Nightbirds – 1974. "Lady Marmalade," was one of the hit songs that was featured on the album. The song brought them huge success as it went on to be ranked as the Number 1 hit song.
Solo Career
Following the success of their album, the group, now called LaBelle went on to carry out energetic performances. Around this time, they also managed to play at the Metropolitan Opera House. This made them the first group to achieve this. Similarly, they landed on the Rolling Stone's cover also breaking records for being the first black singing group to do so. In spite of the success that the group was enjoying, deep inside the team was breaking up as they had differences regarding the direction that their music should be taking. This contributed to the breaking up of the LaBelle in 1977. This prompted Patti LaBelle to pursue her solo career.
During the same year, in 1977, LaBelle released her first solo album. The album was an immediate hit bringing her to the spotlight. Other albums that she went on to release include Tasty – 1978 and Released – 1980. The recording of "The Best followed this is Yet to Come"a ballad which also earned her nationwide popularity. This recording was ranked as number 14 on charts, and it eared LaBelle a Grammy award nomination. Around this time, she partnered with Michael MacDonald to sing the number 1 hit song "On My Own." LaBelle continued with her exceptional performances during the 80s period releasing hit after hit with songs such as "New Attitude," "Stir It Up," "If You Asked Me To" and several others.
LaBelle's first Grammy Award came in 1991 following the release of Burnin'. This album went on to gain gold status recognition within a short period. Two years later, LaBelle was honored and offered a spot at the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Well received albums that she released during the 90s include Gems – 1994, Flame – 1997, Live! One Night Only – 1998 and several others. She bagged home her second Grammy Award for the album Live! One Night Only.
Patti LaBelle continued enjoying her career success during the 2000s. She reunited with her group members and released Back to Now in 2008. They took a tour together, and this earned LaBelle a spot at the Apollo Legends Hall of Fame.
Apart from singing, she has involved herself in writing and released some books such as Don't Block the Blessings- 1997, LaBelle Cuisine: Recipes to Sing About – 1998, Recipes for the Good Life – 2008, etc.
In 1969, Patti LaBelle tied the knot with Armstead Edwards. The couple broke off their marriage in early 2000. During their marriage together, the two had three sons namely Stanley, Todd and Zuri.

Q: USING CASE TO CHANGE PRODUCT NAME I'm working with a table like this:
+-------+-------------+-----------+--+--+
| BRAND | PRODUCTNAME | UNITPRICE |  |  |
+-------+-------------+-----------+--+--+
| A     | APEN        |        10 |  |  |
| A     | APENCIL     |        12 |  |  |
| B     | AAPEN       |        15 |  |  |
| B     | AAPENCIL    |         9 |  |  |
| A     | APAPER      |         2 |  |  |
+-------+-------------+-----------+--+--+

And I need to find the better price for each product.
I think I need to use CASE and substring to cut the "A" and "AA" before the prodcut name in order to check the best price to the same product. I'm new into this and I can't figure out why it's not working.
Then I just need to use Min(Prodname)??
BRAND
,CASE BRAND
        when 'A' then Substring(REPLACE(REPLACE(PRODUCTNAME, ' ', ''), '  ', ''),2,22) Prodname
        when 'B' then Substring(REPLACE(REPLACE(PRODUCTNAME, ' ', ''), '  ', ''),3,33) Prodname,
        ELSE 'not known'
        END AS BRANDNAME
,UnitPrice

What I need to get with this it's something like:
╔═══════╦═════════════╦═══════════╗
║ BRAND ║ PRODUCTNAME ║ UNITPRICE ║
╠═══════╬═════════════╬═══════════╣
║ A     ║ PEN         ║        10 ║
║ B     ║ AAPENCIL    ║         9 ║
║ A     ║ PAPER       ║         2 ║
╚═══════╩═════════════╩═══════════╝

Thanks

A: Using REGEXP_REPLACE and MySQL 8+ we can try:
WITH cte AS (
    SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY REGEXP_REPLACE(PRODUCTNAME, '^A+', '') ORDER BY UNITPRICE) rn
    FROM yourTable
)

SELECT
    BRAND,
    REGEXP_REPLACE(PRODUCTNAME, '^A+', '') AS PRODUCTNAME,
    UNITPRICE
FROM cte
WHERE rn = 1
ORDER BY UNITPRICE DESC;

Demo
The strategy of this query is to do a regex replacemen of ^A+ with empty string, to string off the leading A characters from each product name.  This opens up a potentially nasty edge case for products which might legitimately start with capital A.  Ignoring this, though, my logic should hold up here.

A: You can use TRIM() function as TRIM(LEADING 'A' FROM PRODUCTNAME) to get rid of the leading As :
SELECT T1.BRAND, T2.*
  FROM TAB T1
  JOIN (
        SELECT TRIM(LEADING 'A' FROM PRODUCTNAME) AS PRODUCT_NAME,
               MIN(UNITPRICE) AS UNITPRICE
          FROM TAB
         GROUP BY PRODUCT_NAME) T2
     ON TRIM(LEADING 'A' FROM T1.PRODUCTNAME) = T2.PRODUCT_NAME
       AND T1.UNITPRICE = T2.UNITPRICE
  ORDER BY T1.UNITPRICE DESC;

Demo

Observer leader
Research by the Fawcett Society has found that women working full time earn, on average, 17% less than men: 83p per male pound.
Not only is that unfair, it is illegal.
Bit of a blunder really, eh?
For a start, the law says absolutely nothing at all about the legality or not of a difference in average wages. It\'s about a difference in specific wages for a specific job based solely upon gender (and under some definitions about \"equal pay for jobs of equal value\").
Secondly, once you add in the differences in years in workforce, hours at work, levels of education, levels of human capital, choices between flexibility and wages and choices about jobs and careers to pursue then there\'s actually none (or at worst, very little) of the gender pay gap which remains to be explained by discrimination.
Now there is indeed a social attitude that underlies all of this. The expectation that when children arrive (if they do) that it will be the women who take the time off not just to have them but to raise them. One can shout and holler about this as much as you like but it is pretty embedded in our society. And it\'s that which leads to almost all of the other things listed above which then leads to the 17% average gap.
It just ain\'t taste discrimination any more. It\'s how households divide their labour which is causing it.
Sad day when the editorial of a national newspaper can pump out lies from a pressure group, eh?
Decent day though when you see the comments. Some 50% of them as I write are calling out the newspaper on that error. The newspaper reading public seems better informed than those who write newspapers.

Ah, but it is "The Grauniad"… It seems frequently to apply the old tabloid adage of "never let the facts get in the way of a good story".

I do give some faint praise to the idiot commies at the Guardian for allowing fairly highly critical comments, unlike that tight-ass Murphy.

And now we find there's a gender gap in unemployment:

Only this time, it's men who are suffering. Funny how the Guardianistas aren't wailing and gnashing about discrimination, no?

About the Riksbank About the Riksbank
History ...
Historical timeline ...
Karl Langenskiöld becomes Governor of the Riksbank Karl Langenskiöld becomes...
1901 - Karl Langenskiöld becomes Governor of the Riksbank
Langenskiöld participated in the work of giving the Riksbank a monopoly on issuing banknotes in 1897. He was widely acclaimed, contributing towards his appointment as Governor of the Riksbank.
Karl Langenskiöld (1857–1925) was born in France and grew up in Finland. He took joint honours at the University of Helsinki, worked for a number of years for the Minister–Secretary of State for Finland in Saint Petersburg and then gained a PhD in economics at Helsinki.
Langenskiöld became managing director of Nordiska Aktiebanken, one of Finland's largest banks. In 1892, he was recruited to Skandinavbanken in Stockholm, where he became managing director in 1895.
At the end of the 1800s, several commissions of inquiry were appointed in which the Riksbank, the political parties and the commercial banks wished to clarify the position the Riksbank was to have in the Swedish system. Langenskiöld participated in the third and final government banking committee that developed the strategy and laid the foundation for the Riksbank, as of the new Sveriges Riksbank Act of 1897, gaining a monopoly on issuing banknotes. The Riksbank could now be defined as a modern central bank. During his work in the banking committee, Langenskiöld had proved himself to be highly knowledgeable and his opinions were highly valued. This contributed to his appointment, in 1901, as Governor of the Riksbank.
The start of Langenskiöld's tenure was characterised by an economic boom. This was partly linked to the financial development taking place at the end of the 19th century and start of the 20th century, with growing infrastructure and a large number of newly established banks. The economy, however, then went into reverse. But led by Governor Karl Langenskiöld, the Riksbank acted as a modern central bank for the first time and sorted the crisis out.
Over his time as Governor of the Riksbank, Langenskiöld deliberately worked to create a Riksbank that was more independent of political influence than may have been suggested by its proximity to the Riksdag. After having lost a long battle to have the higher positions at the Riksbank filled mainly by people with appropriate qualifications, Langenskiöld resigned in 1912. A couple of years later, he became a member of the Riksdag's upper house and a member of the Stockholm city council.

Q: Elastic tools - How to create shards for different servers I have created a shard mapping in a database called 'ShardTesting' on my local sql server. I have also created two more databases: shard1 and shard2 in the same server.
Now I am able to create shards and mappings for these two (shard1 and shard2) databases in the main ShardTesting database, but I cannot create shard for any database which is on another server somewhere on Azure. I get the login error that the code was not able to login to this new database.
This is how I create a shard.
var shardLocation = new ShardLocation(server, database);
 ShardCreationInfo shardInfo = new ShardCreationInfo(shardLocation);
 Shard newShard = _listShardMap.CreateShard(shardInfo);

what is happening is that it is trying to login to this new server database with ShardTesting database credentials which are obviously wrong because ShardTesting is the main database on my local machine to store all shards and mappings.
I do not see any way to supply userId and Password along with this new server and database so that the library use them to connect to this new db and create its shard.

A: As no one has answered so far. So let me answer it by myself in case someone is facing the same problem.
All servers should have one same user with same password. In other words create a user in all servers with same name and password and then ShardMapManager will be able to login to them all and can create mappings.
I believe there is no way to supply separate credentials for each server.

GPS navigator is a device that receives the signal from GPS satellites to provide current location and directions from it to where you would like to go. It will route you around traffic delays, help you find nearby services, displays the shortest routes.
Modern iOS and mac-OS applications are written in Swift programming language which is based on the older Apple Objective-C language. As a main Integrated development environment (IDE) the XCode is used.
Apple's MapKit framework has been used to integrate GPS geolocation into iOS application.
To implement a set of maps into the application the ArcGIS Runtime Software Development Kit for iOS which gives access to custom off-the–grid Apple maps has been used to gain accurate location data about the certain area of the map. It is very useful to add a feature that shows nearest gas station and establishments around.
The application has been synchronized with various social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Google+) to make authorization easier and faster and improve the connection between drivers' community.
Applications for Android are written in Java and Kotlin programming languages that runs on the Java Virtual Machine.
GPS geolocation is implemented into Android navigation applications by the use of Google Maps Services API that is currently the fastest and the most accurate navigation instrument.
The application also has the feature that remodels the route if the driver makes the wrong turn.
Android has built-in voice search, so a user can tell the desirable destinations to the application and it will automatically execute the search.
Google Local and Google Contacts are very useful features that show information about nearby locations that is based on previous visits.
The application developed receive signals from the GPS satellites and gathers information about location, identify the relative car position and direction by combining the information received from the sensors. It also shows current traffic situation in the particular area. It takes into account the time needed to reach the destination point considering databases like road network, traffic jam, police posts, road closures and other information that is published by the other drivers or other sources. The application collects this information and marks it on the map so that you do not have to scan it everytime you go through this area.

When They Don't Know How to Dream
by Ronne Rock
Posted on Tuesday, May 12, 2015
The day had already been a long one by the time we arrived at the public school in Cerro de Oro, a small Mayan village on the shores of Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. The bus we were on struggled around the sharp curves and treacherous gravel roads that bore the scars of torrential rains and mudslides from seasons past. We were weary, but hopeful of what was to come. This would be a first for an Orphan Outreach mission team - spending time with the middle school students to talk about their worth and their dreams. Others had come to this village before to deliver groceries, pray, provide humanitarian aid, and do sports camps, and we too were going to walk the rugged pathways with the deacons of a local church to visit homes and offer whatever hope and care we could to those living with so little. But today, we would simply sit and listen and encourage.
While curious children in threadbare clothing watched behind a broken chain link fence, we stumbled our way through a couple of ice breakers on an exposed concrete slab that served as auditorium, classroom, and sport court. We then separated the students into groups by gender and grade. The boys found their places and sat on the hard concrete, while the girls stood uncomfortably and looked at us with fearful eyes.
"They can't sit on the concrete," a translator shared. "They're in dresses. They're afraid they'll get in trouble." My mind flashed back to mission trips in rural villages in Romania, where folklore frightens girls from sitting on the ground without a blanket or quilt lest they be rendered infertile. While it would have been easy to argue against the fears the young women had, we longed for them to understand that this group of strangers hadn't come to change them, but to give hope and kindness.
We scrambled quickly and gained permission for two classrooms to be opened, so our new friends would have a safe and comfortable place to sit.
In one of the rooms, 29 girls moved their desks into a large circle and listened quietly to their American friends talk about what we all had in common. The mission team shared their personal experiences of dreaming as little girls, of being afraid, of making difficult decisions and horribly bad choices, and of Christ's redemption and care through it all.
We asked them to share their stories.
There was silence. The stillness toyed with our fatigue, and for a moment we thought we had failed them. We just knew there had to be dreams locked inside their hearts.
But what if they did't know how to dream?
We asked them how many of them looked forward to the future. A small number said yes. But 21 hands raised when the girls were asked if they were concerned about their safety.
Most giggled when the subject of boys was mentioned. But 80% raised their hands when asked if chores sometimes kept them from attending school or being able to study.
Some could share what they thought defined success - education, employment, money. But no one raised a hand when asked if they thought they would be successful.
And only a few could say what they wanted to be when they grew up.
Accountant.
Teacher.
But the overwhelming majority simply looked at the team with wide-eyed wonder. Because the idea of having a dream was so foreign to them. If history paves the way to their future, most will be married within a year or two, and almost as many will find themselves pregnant within a few months. 90% will suffer abuse at the hands of a family member or close friend. There will likely be no secondary school for either the boys or the girls, because it requires traveling to another village miles and miles away. Boys need to help their families earn a living. And girls just don't leave.
The stats for girls in developing countries aren't promising. 116 million teenage girls have never attended primary school; in fact, girls in poor countries are less likely than boys to have ever attended school at all. Of the 775 million people in the world who cannot read or write, two-thirds are women. Crimes against girls are more common - every ten minutes, another teenage girl dies as a result of violence, and 60% of all girls aging out of orphan care are likely to become victims of sexual trafficking.
And yet, hope peeks through the ominous clouds that threaten to darken the road ahead. We've seen what happens when girls are given the opportunity to dream and learn. Just a short distance away in Santiago, little girls at Good Shepherd Academy beam and talk about their grown-up lives. At Pequeno Refugio in Xela, girls are taught not only educational basics, but also receive vocational training. In Kenya, girls at Candlelight School proudly share their goals to be engineers, lawyers, and surgeons. In the foothills of the Himalayan mountains, girls at Rainbow School are taught about their value and encouraged to attend university.
Every class taken, every new skill learned becomes a weapon of warfare in the fight to protect, empower, and honor precious young women - no matter where they live, no matter their circumstances.
And so in that classroom we held the hands of the girls who don't yet know how to dream, and we pray. We called them by name and spoke the truth of God's enduring love. We spoke words they've not likely ever heard - of a future and a hope. We prayed against abuse and we pray for open doors. We prayed for education to find its way to them. We prayed to return.
And we prayed for more teams to visit and just sit and listen and encourage.
We believe girls are worthFULL. How about you? You can help make the future brighter for a girl in one of the countries Orphan Outreach serves through child sponsorship. Learn more now and get involved.

Bobby Rahal's Chevron B16 stars in Paris
Kelvin Jones Motorsport-built car displayed at Retromobile 2012 and on sale now!
Bobby Rahal's Chevron B16 wooed the crowds at the Retromobile 2012 show in Paris earlier this month.
The Chevron B16, assembled by Kelvin Jones and his Liverpool-based company, which specialises in racing and re-storing historic cars, has been owned by Rahal, 1986 Indianapolis 500 winner and CART Champion in 1986, 1987 and 1992, since 2009. It was manufactured to the exact specification as the original cars, using the same jigs, moulds and drawings as its predecessors from the late 1960s and took pride of place on the Courage stand.
"It is probably one of the most exact B16's racing today," Kelvin said. "The chassis was built at Arch Motors, who have been building them since the 1960s. The response to it at Retromobile was fantastic.
"The French racers and car fans were completely blown away with the finish and the quality of the car we have built.
"I am now looking forward to working with Courage and promoting the Chevron product in France."
Since July 2009, Rahal has enjoyed much success with his KJM-assembled Chevron B16, taking a class win with it first time out at the World Sports Car Masters race at the Silverstone Classic event and also enjoying success with it at Circuit Mont Tremblant in 2010.
It last took class 'gold' at the end of 2011, with Brian Redman, the ex-Chevron works driver, steering it to victory at Sebring International Raceway in the Legends of Motorsports season finale.
"It was a great honour for me to build the car for Bobby," Kelvin continued. "It was a pleasure to work with him and since we have become good friends. He keeps an eye on the career of Declan [my son] and the whole relationship has been built up through this car.
"I was sad when it went to America some 18 months ago. But like any love affair you get over it in the end!
"I am glad it is back in Europe now and promoting what we can do on this side of the Atlantic. It certainly did that in Paris and it is also currently doing that at the Courage factory, where it is on display. It is a good advertisement for what we can do.
"It has done its bit for Bobby and now it is time for someone else to enjoy it. Bobby loved it. He couldn't race it enough and the first time he sat in it, he won the hour and a half race at Silverstone. I'd only finished the car on the Wednesday and by Saturday night we had already notched up victory number one. That sort of pressure is unbelievable. But we did it and he was impressed.
"It was later shipped to the USA and that is where it has been until recently. It has won all over America, but now Bobby has decided to sell it and he has charged me with doing so on his behalf.
"It is a fantastic car and is probably one of the best cars I have ever built. It really is a top bit of kit."

Improving Ischemic Stroke Treatment With A Modified Therapeutic Molecule
February 18, 2021 February 18, 2021 Mufliha Noor	0 Comments
A research has improved the effect of a molecule against ischemic stroke, which is caused by an interruption of blood flow to the brain.
A research team from the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) has improved the protective effect of a molecule against ischemic stroke, which is caused by an interruption of blood flow to the brain. The results of the study, conducted in collaboration with a Spanish team, were published in the Communications Biology of Nature Research journal.
Every year in Quebec, about 20,000 people have a stroke. Also known as a "cerebral infarction", this sudden neurological deficit can lead to psychological and physical after-effects. These effects result from an increase in glutamate in the brain, which destroys neurons. "Glutamate is an essential neurotransmitter for neuronal communication, learning and memory processes, yet above a certain concentration, it becomes toxic to neuronal cells," explains Ahlem Zaghmi, a newly graduated INRS doctoral student under the supervision of Professor Marc A. Gauthier.
The research team aimed at developing an effective treatment that would compensate for the increase in glutamate. What makes its approach unique? It works on the periphery. "Unlike other drugs, our molecule does not need to cross the blood-brain barrier to achieve its therapeutic effect. It represents one fewer obstacle, since it could be injected intravenously," emphasizes the doctoral student.
The modified molecule, glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT), is already known for its therapeutic effects. This enzyme breaks down the glutamate circulating in the bloodstream which creates a kind of siphon effect. "By decreasing concentrations of this neurotransmitter in the blood, excess glutamate in the brain will move out to compensate for the loss. This "siphons" the glutamate out of the brain," she says.
A single dose of the molecule typically lasts three hours in rats. Due to the modification made by the research team, the treatment is now effective for six days! "Adding a polymer, polyethylene glycol, on the surface of the GOT enzyme increases its circulation time in the blood. The polymer will, among other things, protect the molecule from the immune system," says Professor Gauthier, a specialist in bioorganic chemistry and biomaterials. "This has the advantage of maintaining the siphon effect over a period of time that exceeds the duration of the glutamate peak caused by the stroke in the brain, while reducing the number of doses given and the risk of side effects," adds Ahlem Zaghmi.
The research team now intends to observe the longer-term effect of the molecule and explore applications to other neuronal diseases. Since glutamate toxicity is also associated with head trauma, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, the research group could, among other things, test whether the modified molecule accelerates healing or, if so, slows the development of the disease.

Q: Is JwtSecurityTokenHandler thread safe I'm using JwtSecurityTokenHandler to issue tokens in a aspnet core web api app:
JwtSecurityToken token = BuildJwtSecurityToken(...);
public string toks = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler().WriteToken(token);

each time a token is requested and created, a new JwtSecurityTokenHandler is instantiated, can I use a global instance of it and use it for every token generation?
private JwtSecurityTokenHandler handler = new JwtSecurityTokenHandler();
private GenToken(JwtSecurityToken token) => handler.WriteToken(token);

Is there any problems to use like this?

A: Docs say instance members for JwtSecurityTokenHandler are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.identitymodel.tokens.jwtsecuritytokenhandler(v=vs.114).aspx

A: Most examples I see, such as this one on blog.wille-zone.de, create it separately for each request.
I would not get too clever on this; even if it's currently threadsafe, noone here can commit Microsoft to keeping it that way.
If you do want a commitment from them, you could start by raising an issue at https://github.com/AzureAD/azure-activedirectory-identitymodel-extensions-for-dotnet. They can write it into the specification/code/docs.

Q: Wordpress White Screeen Of Death on fresh install I have downloaded wordpress on a web server, and am serving it with nginx. Accessing example.com/readme.html works fine but example.com/ or example.com/wp-admin/install.php returns a white screen.
I am using php 7.4, php7.4-fpm, nginx 1.18.0.
This is the location block of my nginx config file
location / {
                root /var/www/wordpress;
                index index.php;

                location ~ \.php$ {
                    try_files $uri =404;
                    fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
                    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
                    fastcgi_index index.php;
                    include fastcgi_params;
                }

                try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
        }

In my wp-config.php I have the following
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
define('SCRIPT_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', '/var/www/wordpress/wp-content/');

But no error log is found in wp-content after loading the page.
I have tried

*

*Restarting nginx and php-fpm

*Changing memory limits in /etc/php/7.4/cli/php.ini

*changing wp-content/plugins to wp-content/plugins_old

*setting all file permissions to 777 (Bad practice, I know)

*Checking browser debuggers for errors (empty)

*Checking nginx and php logs for errors (empty)

Edit: error found in nginx error.log
2022/01/07 00:33:32 [crit] 339913#339913: *1414 SSL_do_handshake() failed (SSL: error:141CF06C:SSL routines:tls_parse_ctos_key_share:bad key share) while SSL handshaking, client: [redacted], server: 0.0.0.0:443

A: Found the solution here. Issue was incorrect nginx configuration for php-fpm, added include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf; and all was good.

According the American Public Health Association (APHA), "racism and other forms of structured inequity sap our potential to become the healthiest nation." Racism and other "isms" are forces that determine the distribution of the social determinants of health. Join us for a discussion on how social justice efforts play a role in addressing these issues and positively impacting public health outcomes.
Social justice is the view that everyone deserves equal rights and opportunities — this includes the right to good health. Yet today, there are inequities in health that are avoidable, unnecessary and unjust. These inequities are principally the result of policies and practices that create an unequal distribution of money, power and resources among communities based on race, class, gender, place and other factors. Join us for this FREE training series to discuss the role of social justice in achieving health equity. Registration is required.
Register for trainings online at www.bit.ly/EmbracingEquity-2019.
All trainings are held in Columbus Public Health's Auditorium (240 Parsons Ave., Columbus).
Social Work CE's will be offered for each training.

Catchphrase is a unique word game that plays a lot like Charades where the goal of the game is get your teammates to correctly guess a word by providing clues. Using a specialized game unit, two teams play head to head to be the first to reach 7 points by correctly guessing words.
According to Catchphrase rules, you must have two teams. The teams do not need to be the same size, but it is easiest if you arrange seating so that each player is sitting next to a member of the other team to allow the game unit to be passed quickly from one team to the other.
Pick a player to go first. That player should have the game unit. To start the game, press both "Team 1 Score" and "Team 2 Score" buttons at the same time to clear the scores. You may play the game using the default category, or you may scroll through the categories using the Advance button, stopping at the category you'd like to play in and then pressing the Timer button to start the game. There are 11 categories, including the "Everything" category, which uses all 10,000 words in the game. Your game's rule sheet should provide a description of all of the categories.
To start the game, press the "Timer" button. Once the Timer button has been pressed, you cannot select another category, nor see the scores. Pressing Advance will display the next word in the game.
Once a word is displayed, the goal is to give clues that will allow your team to guess the word. Per Catchphrase rules, this can be verbal clues or physical gestures. As soon as the the word has been guessed, hand the game unit to the next player (on the other team). Do not press Advance. This allows the other team to see the word and verify it was correctly guessed. The next player presses the Advance button to reveal the next word, and provides clues to his or her team to allow the team to guess the word.
1) A word that rhymes with the word.
2) The first letter of the word.
If you are caught breaking any of these three rules, press the "Timer" button to shut off the timer. The other team automatically gets a point for that round.
When the buzzer sounds, this indicates the end of the round. Catch phrase rules state that the team that is not holding the game unit gets 1 point. That team also has one turn to guess the word and earn an extra point.
To enter points, the losing team presses the other team's button once. If the winning team guesses the word and earns an extra point, the losing team must press the other team's button a second time. The first team to 7 points wins. You can press the "Time" and "Advance" button together to display the score if needed. The game will announce when a winner is reached.
